Two days later, in Song City: Dawn was just breaking.
"You bandits! It is one thing for you to snatch my Gu Residence's businesses on the surface. Now, you want to snatch my jade shop? My master will not let you off! Ah! My jade ruyi! My master specifically asked for it. Don't snatch it! Don't! "
A miserable shriek tore through the air. The originally sleepy Song City citizens jolted awake at the same time.
Nearly at the same time, countless citizens sat up in shock from their sleep.
"Wife, was that the jade shop owner's voice earlier? Not one of the Gu Residence's businesses on the surface? Then …? "a man exclaimed in shock.
"Why are you still not going? You did not manage to snatch Sun Ergou's last time. If you do not bring back a jade ruyi this time, this old lady will fight it out with you!" the woman on the bed exclaimed.
Rumble …!
A series of doors opening rang out. The God of Fortune was here to spread his wealth again. The citizens who failed to snatch anything last time seemed to have gone crazy this time, rushing out without even putting on their clothes properly.
The same scene happened everywhere in Song City. It was like a large number of the Gu Residence's hidden businesses suddenly appeared in the city. Countless citizens rushed over in a frenzy, wreaking havoc and snatching. This was a legitimate snatch.
Miserable shrieks, arguments, and sounds of beatings rang out. The sky was slightly bright, and some places already had smoke billowing out.
Inside the Gu Han Residence:
"Adoptive Father, Song City only has six hidden businesses. Can they mobilize all the citizens in the city?" Gu Han asked somewhat worriedly.
"Six? That is enough. The people want more of these shops. So be it! If they are tempted, even if there are only a few shops, it will be enough to stir their ambitions! "Gu Hai said as he sipped his tea.
Outside:
The sounds of snatching rang out endlessly. The sky gradually brightened.
It was another great harvest. Some citizens smiled happily. However, countless others felt increasingly anxious.
"Damn it! I was one step too late again!"
"This great me did not manage to snatch anything. Is there any more? Is there any more Gu Hai shops?"
"I was just a little slower. Just a little slower. Damn it!"
…
…
…
Six shops were far from enough to satisfy the appetite of the entire city's citizens. A small portion of people had managed to snatch the shops, but the majority were still anxious and incomparably anxious. The God of Wealth had given away his wealth, yet he had not managed to snatch anything?
Countless commoners did not return home. Instead, they wandered the streets, their eyes constantly scanning their surroundings, hoping to find another Gu Hai shop.
"Bright Gold Shop, so many gold words. If only it was one of Gu Hai's businesses!" A commoner looked enviously at a gold shop that had just opened.
Perhaps it was just jealousy, but it instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"Gu Hai's property? Yes, it must be Gu Hai's property! "Another person who was more anxious than him suddenly shouted.
"What? Gu Hai's property? Motherf * cker, I finally caught him! "
"I must get it this time!"
"Snatch it!"
…
…
…
The surrounding people seemed to have gone mad as they rushed towards the bright gold shop. It was as if the people on the street had found their target in an instant.
The boss of the bright gold shop changed his expression.
"Bright Gold Shop is a century-old shop. A century-old shop, it can't be one of Gu Hai's properties. Don't snatch it, you are breaking the law. Don't snatch it, ah!"
The boss of the gold shop screamed as he was knocked to the ground.
At this moment, the commoners seemed to have gone mad. Who would care so much? As long as there was a reason, they could snatch it. Moreover, everyone was snatching it. Why should they be the idiot and watch?
"Mine, mine, damn it, it's mine, don't snatch it!"
"Hahaha, I'm rich!"
"Don't snatch it from me, hahaha, I finally got it!"
…
…
…
"We are a century-old shop, not one of Gu Hai's properties. Don't snatch it!"
…
…
…
Cries, screams, and shouts were incessant.
It was not just the bright gold shop. All around Song City seemed to have been ignited. In an instant, the entire city was in chaos. Every shop became a target for the commoners to snatch.
Gu Hai's properties? Are you sure? There was no need to be sure.
As long as someone got jealous and shouted, "This is Gu Hai's property, right?" A pack of hungry wolves would immediately charge over.
Snatch! Snatch! Snatch!
All of Song City went crazy.
Fires started everywhere. The commoners were no longer good citizens who knew their place. Instead, they all turned into bandits.
Were these just for the shops? No! Some of the wealthy families were plundered.
Boom!
Doors opened one after another. Then, the commoners charged into the various wealthy families' houses like bandits going all out. Some of the wealthy families only heard one sentence, "This is Gu Hai's secret manor."
Rumble …!
The wealthy families' houses were immediately plundered.
Of course, only a few people plundered the wealthy families. Most of the people plundered the shops.
Immediately, all the shops became targets for the commoners. It was like Gu Hai's properties were everywhere in Song City.
Snatch! Snatch! Snatch!
The huge chaos quickly spread to the imperial palace. All the officials immediately received a summons to head to the imperial court for a morning assembly.
In the imperial palace's imperial court:
The place was noisy and chaotic.
"Song City's Magistrate, why is the entire city in such chaos? Where are your men? Why are you not going to stop them? "the Song Emperor thundered from his throne.
An official knelt on the ground, trembling. "Your Majesty, it is chaos. It is all chaos. This old official wanted the city guards to go and control the situation. However, only a few of the city guards obeyed. The rest went to rob!"
"What?" Crown Prince Song's expression changed.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, most of my city guards were absent as well. They went to participate in the robberies!"
"Your Majesty, thirty-six places in the city are already on fire!"
…
…
…
The group of officials reported anxiously. After summarizing the information, they found that no one was available. Most of the subordinates had gone to rob.
"How can it be like this? How can it be like this? "Crown Prince Song said with an unsightly expression.
"We do not know what happened, either. Everything was fine two days ago. Everything was calm. However, why did it suddenly go crazy? Why did it suddenly go crazy?!"
At this moment, all the civil and military officials in the imperial court were at a loss. Horror appeared in their eyes.
"Gu Hai? Gu Hai's scheme? "Crown Prince Song exclaimed, startled.
Everyone was a bandit. It was not just in Song City. The same scene played out in all the cities in the Song Nation.
Snatch! Snatch! Snatch! Snatch!
In the border city:
Gao Xianzhi stood on a high platform in the military camp, looking at the soldiers he had brought under his command. More than half of them had deserted and gone to the various shops in the city to rob. Gao Xianzhi couldn't help but shudder.
Many houses burned in flames, and thick smoke surged. The border city looked like hell on earth. Miserable cries, despair, and fighting rang out endlessly.
Gao Xianzhi seemed to see Gu Hai again. At this moment, he wore armor and held a sword in his hand, pointing it in the direction of the dynasty's capital, Song City.
At this moment, nearly all the ordinary citizens in the border city had become part of Gu Hai's army. As long as Gu Hai gave the order, he could command all the ordinary citizens in the border city to charge at the dynasty's capital, Song City.
No, it was Gu Hai commanding all the ordinary citizens in the Song Nation's cities. All the ordinary citizens of the Song Nation suddenly became Gu Hai's soldiers. With one order, the ordinary citizens would disregard everything and destroy the Song Clan's empire.
Previously, when the military camp was bombed, Gao Xianzhi seemed to see Gu Hai commanding her eight-hundred-thousand-strong army to go against her. This time, it was Gu Hai commanding all the Song Nation's ordinary citizens.
The eighty-thousand-strong army already made Gao Xianzhi tremble in fear. However, all the Song Nation's ordinary citizens made Gao Xianzhi feel like she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Gu Hai? He alone can destroy the six nations! "Gao Xianzhi sighed in horror.
Three days later, everything returned to normal. All the shops in the Song Nation were destroyed. The entire nation sank into a deathly stillness.
The ordinary citizens could no longer buy anything. As for the shop owners, they cried out in despair.
At this moment, the Clear River Sect's group arrived in the Song Nation.
The young female hall master and Venerable Liu Nian led the group. The Clear River Sect Master and the First Song Sect Master accompanied them. The group arrived at the border city and met Gao Xianzhi.
At this moment, Gao Xianzhi stood respectfully before the group.
The young female hall master stood on a high platform in the border city, looking down at the entire border city.
The border city was already desolate. A cold wind blew the fallen leaves, slowly sweeping the streets. Occasionally, one or two people walked the streets. The border city was like a dead city, deathly silent.
"Gasp! It has only been one month, right? "the young female hall master exclaimed with wide eyes.
Venerable Liu Nian showed a complicated expression.
"This is a barren land for five hundred kilometers. This Gu Hai is indeed a demonic genius. In one month, he managed to make all the ordinary citizens lose their hearts!" Venerable Liu Nian sighed.
The First Song Sect Master showed an unsightly expression. "What do you mean by all the ordinary citizens lost? The ordinary citizens are still around!"
At the side, Gao Xianzhi smiled bitterly. "The ordinary citizens are still around, but their hearts are no longer there. The ordinary citizens no longer support the Song Clan's empire."
"Huh?" the First Song Sect Master said, feeling confused.
"Those ordinary citizens who suffered a calamity definitely hate the Song Nation for making them lose everything. As for those ordinary citizens who robbed, they also understood that most of what they robbed did not belong to Gu Hai. They should already be robbers. Although the law might not punish the majority, do you expect a robber to love his country? A robber would risk his life for the country? A robber would go to war? Not to mention that they already lost their loyalty to the Song Nation, even if they had the wealth, they would not be willing to risk their lives in war anymore. As for those ordinary citizens who did not rob or did not rob, they feel even worse. The Song Nation is unfair. Why should they help the Song Nation fight? "Gao Xianzhi said bitterly.
"In that case, the patriotic heart of the Song Nation's ordinary citizens is gone?" the Clear River Sect Master asked excitedly.
"Although I do not want to admit it, it is the truth. The soldiers in my camp cannot fight anymore. Unless we can return to the past and set things right, that is easier said than done. That Gu Hai has been keeping an eye on us, "Gao Xianzhi said bitterly.
"Hahahahaha!" The Clear River Sect Master laughed heartily.
"He turned the ordinary citizens into bandits, causing the people's hearts to fall into chaos. This Gu Hai's move is too ruthless! "Venerable Liu Nian sighed.
"This … is there no other way?" the First Song Sect Master asked with an unsightly expression.
"This is not the scariest part. If the Chen Nation sends its troops now, all the cities in my Song Nation will be like paper. We will not be able to block them at all. At the very least, no one will be able to block them for some time," Gao Xianzhi said bitterly.
At the side, the Clear River Sect Master showed a slightly stunned expression. He said, "Hey, five days ago, Chen Tianshan sent me a message saying that Gu Hai ordered Chen Wang to lead one hundred fifty thousand soldiers to the Song Nation. At that time, I did not think much of it. It was just one hundred fifty thousand soldiers. How could they barge into the Song Nation? However, after hearing what you said … "
Gao Xianzhi smiled bitterly and said, "Gu Hai's calculations are flawless. He planned everything step by step. The one hundred fifty thousand soldiers should be charging over with boundless hatred. However, they are facing the paper Song Nation. I am not comparable to him. Hah! "
"How do those fools, the Song Emperor, manage their country?" the First Song Sect Master said with a resentful expression.
"Gu Hai should be in Song City right now, right?" the young female hall master asked with excitement in her eyes.
"I guess he should still be in Song City!" Gao Xianzhi smiled bitterly.
"Come, let's go to Song City!" the young female hall master said with an unquestionable tone.
