Legend of the Heavenly Swordsman
Ch.148 - Discussion

In this season the big sects that sent their envoys were only the Southern Edge sect. Those present at this moment were only the closest sect envoys and some groups that were indeed quite trustworthy.

And Suyu assumed that the other sects were currently focusing on other areas. At least there are some villages that are currently the focus of development in the agricultural sector.

Not long after everyone introduced themselves, a middle-aged man entered their room.

"Welcome to the Village Chief.." Kuron saluted, his current position closest to the door.

The Village Chief smiled awkwardly, "What's with this tense situation? Please sit down first, gentlemen."

The long table in the middle of the room was now filled with dishes and drinks. The Village Chief understood these people were valuable assets, so he would give the best banquet to them.

"Chief of Byeong Village, how are you?" And Suyu gave her greetings.

"I'm fine Young Master, how about you?"

"Not much better than you.." And Suyu smiled gently, "Alright, since everyone is already present let's start the discussion."

Originally Fu Chen had intended to observe during the discussion, but the direction of this conversation was far beyond his expectations.

Most of the people present were more enthusiastic about the distribution of the crops they would get. Some also feel dissatisfied because of unfair divisions.

Not that Goryeo Village had nothing, these envoys had brought a considerable amount of money to buy grain supplies.

"Ehkem.." Fu Chen slightly raised his voice, making the room suddenly quiet. The whole look was on him now.

"What is Chen's swordsman? Is there something bothering you?" tanya Dan Suyu, she herself was uncomfortable with this unidirectional discussion.

"Before talking about the results you get, wouldn't you better calculate first how to deal with the rats?"

They looked at each other after hearing Fu Chen's words. Before the discussion began, they actually agreed to use the same way as the previous season, so they did not talk about it anymore.

In the previous season, they had at least managed to save more than seventy percent of the wheat fields from the invasion of the rats. It was a pretty good result according to them but not with Fu Chen.

"Broker Chen, we have been researching this Village area for the past two years, we have also marked some points that will probably be a lot of mice that appear."

"That's right, we'll be keeping watch at those points for the next few days, that's the plan." The man named Emdou Yong snorted.

"You're talking too much to a boy who's just entering the martial world!" Further.

"Don't you ever think why those rats can show up every season and keep growing?"

Fu Chen smiled faintly before putting his hand into the robe, then taking out the rat corpse from his earth ring.

"Th-this…"

"How could this creature have appeared by now?"

"Where did you get it? Even this size is much larger than usual."

The people in the room froze, they thought this rat would appear about the next five days. Even the size of this mouse is equivalent to a one-year-old toddler.

It was much larger than they had ever seen before.

"Sniper Chen, can you explain what this all means?" And Suyu tried to calm the others down.

"I just want to say if your plans won't work this season." Fu Chen's words made their brows furrow. And Suyu immediately stopped them when anyone wanted to tell Fu Chen.

"Please continue your explanation!" say Dan Suyu.

"I hope you are aware of the number of you this time which is different from last season. Silence and waiting for the rats to come will not be effective if you are outnumbered."

But in his memories, a Dou Huang was able to pass through all of that with a clever tactic. Although the ability of the Dou Huang back then was also the key to their victory, but all was inseparable from the tactics he played.

Fu Chen then explained the plan he was referring to. Fu Chen intended to make an ambush before the mice moved. At least with this plan they can reduce the number of rats before the day of the invasion.

Fu Chen also revealed the mice had a mother hiding somewhere. He therefore hoped that a few days before the invasion, they would be able to kill the mother in order for the rats to leave.

And Suyu pondered over Fu Chen's remark, this plan was indeed the best solution to their current problem. But the risk they will face is also quite large.

"This is indeed the best solution, but who will protect the Village when all the warriors go hunting?" tanya And Suyu.

"I'm not saying everything will come, of course those who do not have the courage to stay here. And so are you guys in this room. Whatever the outcome, you will feel it."

"What does this boy really want?" thought Emdou Yong, he looked suspiciously at Fu Chen.

"Alright, I'll consider your plan. Then who else would be willing to give you advice?" And Suyu saw everything just staring at each other and thought it agreed with Fu Chen's plan.

Fu Chen then pointed to the suspected location of the rats' nest. In total there are seven locations located at the foot of the mountain.

And Suyu then divided the group to ambush each of these locations, he asked all those in the room other than the Village Chief to join the ambush.

And Suyu will leave 30 warriors to guard the Village. This was the best solution in case Fu Chen's plan failed.

And Suyu actually did not understand from where Fu Chen got such an understanding at such a young age. Even in the previous season no one dared to approach even thinking of killing the mother. Given the large number of rats.

Fu Chen was very satisfied with Dan Suyu's decision, Fu Chen assumed that Dan Suyu would become a famous swordsman in the future.

With his ability that has reached the King Swordsman at the age of 24 years, it is not difficult to achieve other achievements in the future.

The discussion ended when it was late afternoon, Kuron did not say much and just observed. He still did not expect Fu Chen's youngster to have such a broad view.

"Eemmhh.." Fu Chen stretched his body, "Everything went perfectly," he said as he yawned.

"Hey son! Who's you-! Ah no, what's your real purpose in doing all this?" Kuron looked at Fu Chen in confusion.

"Hem?" Fu Chen glanced at Kuron, "There's no particular reason, didn't you yourself say? To join Muyong family's search I need a group."

"So you mean?"

"That's right, I need to build a relationship with someone to realize my goal, and it seems like Dan Suyu is the right person." Fu Chen replied casually.

"You're in a relationship in an interesting way." Kuron just shook his head slowly while smiling wryly.

"That's how the martial world I know. We only talk when we have the ability." Fu Chen's gaze changed, as if he had instilled that principle into his heart.

Kuron and Fu Chen were separated in different groups, they intended to carry out the ambush of the three suns yet to manifest themselves.

Fu Chen himself was in the same group as Dan Suyu. The young swordsman seemed to want to see Fu Chen's abilities with his own eyes.

"Armgh!! What the fuck is that boy? how dare he talk like that in front of me!" Emdou Yong hit the table at the inn to the point of being crushed.

Emdou Yong was furious because Fu Chen messed things up. Originally Emdou Yong would take advantage of his influential sect position to take more rations of wheat.

But Fu Chen actually gave a proposal to provide rations of wheat according to the contribution they gave. Fu Chen's proposal was also approved by Dan Suyu and some people who objected to the previous rules.

"You people! Go find out who that kid doesn't know himself is! Kill him if the situation allows." Emdou Yong ordered two warriors behind him.

The swordsman looked at each other for a moment before responding to Emdou Yong's orders. They don't know the boy in question, but they'll soon find him.

"Haha! just look, even though we are not a big sect but nobody can play with us!"
