Chapter 704: Li Ke, who is afraid of insects
"So, I don't actually have much territory. Most of it is an enclave, and I can only rely on the chieftain's mood?"
Li Ke, who had already arrived in Miaojiang, looked at the officials in front of him and was speechless.
Although he rarely came here because there were too few temples, he knew that this was the territory of the Tang Dynasty. However, he did not expect that the Tang Dynasty's control over Miaojiang was so weak.
Especially local officials.
Looking at the local chief in front of him, who was dark, thin and pale, he couldn't help but cover his face.
It was obvious that the official in front of him hadn't eaten for two days. Not only that, he also had a lot of pustules on his body. Li Ke was speechless when he saw it.
"You wouldn't have built a good relationship with the Five Poison Sect and made a deal with them to help you control the local chieftains or something like that, so that it wouldn't have come to this, right?"
Li Ke was really speechless. As a senior official, he had fallen to the point where he couldn't even afford to eat. His good emperor really found a good place for him.
"This, this... I really have no choice. You don't know, I can't command anyone here, the imperial army can't just come here, and I can't buy anything with silver, so I'm so hungry here that I even want to eat people!"
The chief official looked at Li Ke with a sad face and was speechless for a long time. If he could handle all these, would he still be exiled to Miaojiang?
He was squeezed out here just because of his poor political performance. At this time, Li Ke also remembered that he had cut this guy's salary with his own hands because his attitude towards work was really bad.
I just didn't expect to end up here.
"Forget it. I'd be crazy to count on you. It looks like there's no need to go to the palace. I know from looking at your government office that it's definitely not a good place."
Li Ke sighed and looked at the mountains in the distance.
Miaojiang generally refers to the two areas of Hunan and Guizhou. In the Tang Dynasty, it was a place full of smoke and miasma, with large-scale virgin forests, swamps, and endless snakes, insects, rats and ants. Even tigers, leopards and wolves appeared here in large numbers. You might even be taken away by a tiger in the city.
His territory is more remote, basically it is Yunnan.
So although his territory was large, there was no doubt that in the eyes of any sane Tang Dynasty person, Miaojiang was a place where it was absolutely impossible to survive.
Especially...
"What is that?"
Li Ke looked at the dark clouds in the distance curiously. Near the distant mountain, there was a large piece of black cloud that was wriggling. He was a little curious, so he asked.
However, he found that this official who had no followers was staring at the snack box carried by the girl Qixiu beside him with his eyes wide open, so he picked up a pancake and gave it to the official. The official subconsciously broke off half of it and began to eat it voraciously, and prepared to save the other half for his wife at home.
He took two bites before he remembered that he still had to answer Li Ke's question. Then his face changed and he became quite frightened.
“Wuwuwuwu!!”
He caught the cake he had spit out with his hands and then shouted in horror .
"Mosquito! Your Majesty! That's a mosquito!"
"mosquito?"
Li Ke was stunned for a moment, and then he saw that the dark cloud was moving towards them quickly, and...
It's really a mosquito!
Li Ke's eyes widened instantly. He saw clearly that the dark cloud over 100 meters wide was a large group of mosquitoes! In the center, there were thousands of mosquitoes the size of a human fist.
"It is said that there are many mosquitoes in Miaojiang. I have seen it myself."
Li Ke nodded, and then quickly bought a large amount of DDT insect .
In an instant, as the official looked at the immortal, a container more than ten meters high appeared in front of Li Ke, and the next moment, Li Ke drew out his sword.
Countless sword winds suddenly flew out from his scabbard, and the next moment, the lid of the container was directly shattered, along with the bottles of dichlorvos.
The potions began to expand instantly, but as the sword winds swept over the civilians, they rushed directly into the swarms of mosquitoes.
The sword energy arrived instantly, and Dichlorvos followed closely behind!
The swarm of mosquitoes was divided by the sword energy and surrounded by DDT. They were completely thrown into chaos and had no intention of flying towards them anymore.
but……
"Someone doesn't want this king to come."
Li Ke looked at the two people who fled in panic and sneered.
Wang Weilin, one of the Seven Beauties standing next to Li Ke, was stunned for a moment. Before she came, she had sent a message to her former fellow disciple Qu Yun, asking her to be careful in dealing with this prince. But now it seems that there are still people in the Five Poison Sect who disobey her.
"This method of repelling insects should be from the Five Poison Sect, but..."
"It doesn't matter. There are close and distant people in any organization. I won't take action against Qu Yun, but..."
Li Ke sneered.
"It doesn't prevent me from killing a chicken to scare the monkeys. Come on! Take out the things I prepared! Don't they like playing with bugs? I'll play with them!"
Li Ke was just worried that he had no place to show off his thunderous methods!
The soldiers under his command quickly began to act. The next moment, they pulled open the carriages one by one, revealing the planes inside. Then, quickly, under the command of the drivers that Li Ke had trained long ago, bulldozers began to level the road and prepare the runway.
"Your Majesty, is this... the Tang family's mechanical device?"
Wang Weilin looked at those mechanical creations with some curiosity. She could only tell that they were made of iron, but she had no idea why Li Ke did that.
"Just wait."
Li Ke just smiled.
…
“Those people are really bold.”
Qu Yun looked at the report from his men helplessly. The local Miao people didn't want a prince to collect taxes from them, so they simply brought a group of Five Poison disciples to drive away mosquitoes, hoping to kill Li Ke in office.
But although she was the leader of the Five Poisons Sect, she still had some connections with Qi Xiu, so she got a lot of information about Li Ke from her former sisters and learned some things.
That's Li Ke, he's not easy to deal with.
"Forget it. I will personally go and apologize tomorrow. I hope this prince is not difficult to deal with."
Qu Yun, the leader of the Five Poisons Sect who had transformed from a young girl into a loli through practicing martial arts, sighed, but at this moment, she suddenly heard a buzzing sound coming from the sky.
"What's this?"
She walked out in confusion, and then saw that countless red "kites" had appeared in the sky at some point. These kites kept making buzzing sounds in the sky and kept spraying water vapor.
"This is……"
She became even more confused, but when the water vapor fell to the ground, her eyes suddenly widened!
Because the insects on the ground, including those cultivated by the disciples of the Five Poison Sect, began to struggle in pain!
She knew what it was in an instant!
Special insecticide!
