Ordinary people can also be extraordinary

After repelling the swarm of insects, Zhang Chen successfully arrived in Daliang City. At this time, the drainage channel was being dug in full swing outside the city. Zhang Chen came to the room and happened to meet Sima Feng.

Sima Feng walked forward and punched Zhang Chen in the chest, causing Zhang Chen to involuntarily take a step back.

"You haven't come back for a few days. I thought you would never come back."

"Be gentle, my injury hasn't healed yet."

Zhang Chen pretended to press his chest, his face full of pain.

"You are hurt?"

Sima Feng showed worry on his face. He observed Zhang Chen carefully and saw that Zhang Chen looked pale and seemed to be weak from his injuries.

"Yeah, I almost died this time."

Zhang Chen was still a little scared when he thought of the previous scene, so he told Sima Feng what happened. He also learned from him that less than half of the hundreds of people who went for the sneak attack came back. He was immediately filled with sighs. The battlefield is ruthless and life and death may only take a moment.

As it was getting late, Zhang Chen went back to his room to rest. This time the swarm of insects had completely retreated, and everyone was very excited.

After staying in Daliang City for five days, the drainage channel outside the city was finally repaired and the water outside was diverted out. The city was full of joy and smiles everywhere.

Zhang Chen and his team also welcomed the reward moment. Those who performed outstandingly were rewarded. Those who participated in the sneak attack and survived, like Zhang Chen, were rewarded with thousands of spirit stones.

Just when everyone received their rewards and left, Zhang Chen came to a disciple in the late Foundation Establishment stage who was distributing rewards. This person was none other than Zhang Sihu, the team leader who had proposed to exchange insect and beast corpses for spirit stones in Wuyun City.

Zhang Chen took out the insect mother's head from the storage bag and placed it in front of him.

"Uncle Master, you said before that there is a reward of 20,000 spirit stones for killing the insect mother. Does it still count?"

Zhang Sihu looked at the insect mother's head in front of him with a look of surprise. This was indeed the insect mother's head, and it had died not long ago. Then he looked at Zhang Chen with some suspicion and asked:

"Did you kill this?"

Zhang Chen didn't want to tell anyone about Wuyun City so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, so he just said that he took advantage of the insect swarm's retreat and launched a surprise attack.

Zhang Sihu looked at Zhang Chen with a questioning look on his face. He knew that Zhang Chen was definitely not telling the truth, but he didn't care too much. It didn't matter how he killed it, as long as he could kill it. So he reached out and took the insect mother's head, and said to Zhang Chen:

"This reward is a huge sum of money. You need to apply for it by noting it to the higher-ups. You can leave first and I will notify you to collect the reward when the time comes."

"Ok."

Zhang Chen was delighted, and after responding, he went back. After all, it was 20,000 spirit stones, which was indeed a huge amount, so it was normal to wait.

The insect swarm had retreated for many days, and the water outside the city had been completely diverted away. The city had become lively again, and without any threats, many businesses had started selling things. There were many people coming in and out of the city gates, and it looked prosperous.

Zhang Chen and Sima Feng walked around the city. Everyone seemed to have escaped death and were trying hard to experience the beauty of life.

But not everyone is so lucky. Many people fled into Daliang City. After so many days, they had run out of money and had no choice but to beg on the streets. Many of them had children with them, but there were too many beggars and no one could bear it. During these days, people were starving to death in the city at any time. In addition, the city was surrounded by the river. Although Daliang City was not flooded, many low streets in the city were still flooded by river water from sewers and other channels.

As a result, the living environment in these places is relatively poor, and there are many sick people. It seems that they have escaped the insect swarms but cannot escape human disasters.

After seeing this, Zhang Chen knew that all of this was related to him, so he tried to find a way to solve it. After inquiring in the city, he learned that the city had stockpiled a lot of food, but had not distributed some to the people who had no food, which made Zhang Chen very angry.

Finally, they found the mayor of Daliang City and learned that in order to deal with the subsequent insect attacks, they were helpless and dared not distribute food. Moreover, there were a large number of soldiers in the city, and the daily consumption was astronomical. They all had their own difficulties. Zhang Chen didn't know what to say after hearing this.

But when Zhang Chen and Sima Feng came to those wealthy businessmen and the rich and powerful in the city, they realized what it meant that while the rich had wine and meat, the poor were freezing to death on the streets. They were eating sumptuous fish and meat, but had no intention of using any of it to save the people who were already on the verge of death.

Moreover, those rich people took the opportunity to pick beautiful women from the beggars and play with them at will. Zhang Chen was furious when he thought that they were desperately defending the city while these people were doing these things.

So, together with Sima Feng, they robbed the rich to help the poor in Daliang City. They simply crushed the bones and ashes of those who had done many evil things, and then exchanged all their property for food and distributed it to the beggars.

But as the noise grew, what the two had done was known to their fellow disciples. There were also relatives of their fellow disciples in Daliang City. Those who could be relatives of their fellow disciples must be rich or noble in Daliang City, and there were more or less people who took advantage of their power to bully others and do evil, so they were also robbed by the two men.

On that day, the two men were using the money they had robbed to buy food, and then distributed it to the people. When they were happily returning to their room, they saw two young men angrily blocking their door.

Seeing the two people coming, one of the young men in a green robe stepped forward and said to them:

"The Wan family's mansion in the east of the city was robbed. Did you do it?"

Another man wearing a green robe and slightly plump also said angrily:

"And Cheng's family in the south of the city was also created by you, right?"

"Two brothers, what's going on?"

Zhang Chen and Sima Feng looked at each other and seemed to understand something.

"Why are you pretending to be confused? If you don't give us an explanation today, then we will go to our uncle to seek justice."

The young man in the green gown was very angry when he saw Zhang Chen pretending not to know.

Zhang Chen was not pretending to be confused. He had robbed many mansions in the past few days, including the east and south of the city. He did not care which mansion it was, so he was not sure whether the one they were talking about was the one he had robbed.

"Two brothers, you have also seen the situation in the city. Those people are so pitiful. You all know the purpose of our sect. It is a great achievement to donate some money to benefit the people."

"We'll accept it if you pay us some money, but you not only took the money, but also beat up my father. How do you account for this?"

The young man in green robe stared at the two of them, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire.

"We beat your father?"

Zhang Chen was a little surprised. Before he could refute, he heard Sima Feng say:

"We only beat your father, but didn't kill him. That means he can still be saved. You should feel lucky. We helped him to find his way back to the right path. So you should thank us."

"You...you...asshole."

When the man heard Sima Feng say this, his already suppressed emotions were instantly ignited. He immediately took out his magic sword and slashed towards Sima Feng with a sword beam.

Sima Feng took a few steps to the left to avoid the attack. The sword did not attack Sima Feng but went straight forward, splitting the door behind him in half. Seeing such power, Sima Feng's face immediately became gloomy.

"The people we robbed must have done something bad. If your father was really robbed by us, then you should really reflect on yourself. We will not wrongly accuse him."

When Zhang Chen saw him taking action, Yu quickly explained.

"you…"

The man looked at Zhang Chen with even more anger, and at the same time, a sword slashed towards Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen was prepared and dodged it easily.

Then he exchanged a glance with Sima Feng and said to him:

"You did it first."

After saying that, he and Sima Feng attacked him together.
