Chapter 144: The Current Situation of the Chaos Land and the Competition
"Okay, the fight is over. The King Kong Gang won. Liu Xianwu, you can't seek revenge on the King Kong Gang for what happened today. Today's dispute ends here." Captain Feng gave orders to the already mentally confused Liu Xianwu. It should have ended here, but he noticed that Yun Bai and Xiao Hua went over to support the grandfather and grandson who were injured in the previous melee, so he added casually as a favor: "Including Old Man Xu and his granddaughter, you can't cause trouble for them. Otherwise, they will be severely punished!" After that, he changed his tone and said to Zhang Xiaodi: "After all, this is not your territory, don't break the rules in the future. You and your friends go back first, and I'll treat you to a drink another day." After that, he smiled at Yun Bai and the others on purpose, and then gave an order and led the team away.
Zhang Xiaodi was flattered to hear that Captain Feng wanted to treat him to a drink, but he was not stupid and knew that Captain Feng really cared about these five young people with unknown identities and outstanding strength. Although he did not understand why Captain Feng was like this, the Chaos Land had never intersected with the outside world. Here, the Joint Law Enforcement Team represented supreme power. Some outsiders had come here before, and they were also very powerful, but Captain Feng had never treated them with courtesy... No matter what, for him, Captain Feng had sent a friendly signal, which was a great thing.
For the above considerations, and the fact that Yun Bai and his five men had really helped him a lot, the other party saw that they were also chivalrous people, and they were very compatible with Zhang's temper, so after Captain Feng left, he hurried to Old Man Xu and his granddaughter, sent them home first, sent someone to invite a doctor, and finally left 5 low-grade spirit coins for the two. Old Man Xu thanked them profusely, and cried and said that he hoped that the King Kong Gang would win this competition, win back this piece of land, and let them live a good life again.
Seeing that Old Man Xu was penniless, Yun Bai felt sorry for him, so he took out 10 low-grade spirit coins and some ungraded and newly-graded spirit plants that were helpful for healing and recuperation and gave them to him. Although they were not worth much, they were what they needed most, and they would not overshadow Zhang Xiaodi. Old Man Xu refused to accept them at first, but after Wang Xiaoqiang's persuasion, and Zhang Xiaodi saw that Yun Bai really wanted to help, he also persuaded him, so Old Man Xu trembled and accepted these things, and kept saying that he had met a good person. In the end, he even insisted that his granddaughter Xu Xiaoyun kowtow to the benefactors. Of course, the few people refused to accept this kneeling, and left immediately.
As soon as they walked out of Old Man Xu's house, Zhang Xiaodi warmly invited the five people to visit his home. He wanted his two sisters to entertain the five friends well to express his gratitude. The five people had just arrived and had a fight. They were worried about where to stay. Seeing that Zhang Xiaodi was also a kind and generous person, he readily agreed. Zhang Xiaodi was very happy to see this. He took the other six men and walked towards his home with Yun Bai and the other five people, chatting and laughing all the way.
With the introduction from Zhang Xiaodi, a native local, Yun Bai and his friends soon gained a better understanding of the Land of Chaos.
In the land of chaos, strength is respected. There are no less than 1 gangs of all sizes. According to the size, assets, and cultivation of the gang members, the gangs are divided into 9-1 grades from low to high, with 9 grade being the lowest and 2 grade being the highest. The gang that Zhang Xiaodi belongs to, the King Kong Gang, is a 120-grade gang. There are more than people in the gang, and they govern three areas, covering an area of about tens of thousands of acres. They can do business in the areas under their jurisdiction and charge a certain amount of protection fees to the residents who accept their protection. Zhang Xiaodi also has two sisters, the eldest sister Zhang Dadi and the second sister Zhang Zhaodi, who are the first and second gang leaders of the King Kong Gang respectively, and he is the third brother (Yun Bai only then knew how Zhang Xiaodi got this somewhat strange name), and he is also the third gang leader of the King Kong Gang.
There is actually a clear division of regional forces in the Land of Chaos. Generally speaking, there are mountains in the east and islands in the west. These two parts form alliances. Within these two alliances, there are several regions, each of which is managed by a gang or family with a nine-star strongman. Below them are gangs of various ranks. Of course, there are also formal organizations, as well as forces composed of mountain bandits and sea bandits, but with the strict control of the joint law enforcement team, they will not commit crimes blatantly. However, it is not uncommon for people like Liu Xianwu of the Tiger Gang to bully their neighbors under various pretexts.
Although life here was not rich, it was at least far from the flames of war. But later, this place could not escape the disaster. Although the population and land were basically intact, the products of the forest and the ocean were looted and destroyed, making life here more and more difficult, competition more and more fierce, and riots and vicious fights frequent. Later, the eighteen nine-star bosses, who were the talkers of the land of chaos, sat together to discuss and finally decided to use fair duels as a method of judging disputes and allocating resources. Small matters were fought on the spot, and big matters were signed on the duel stage. Every year, a gang competition conference was held to allocate the sphere of influence for the next year. Every three years, the gang rank was identified, and high-ranking gangs could get more uniformly allocated resources.
For example, the Tiger Gang that they were fighting with was originally as strong as their King Kong Gang, but the year before last, they discovered a second-grade lapis lazuli vein in the mountains and handed it over to the Cangmang Gang, the leader of this area, and received a reward, which greatly increased their strength. In last year's competition, they defeated the King Kong Gang and took away two areas of influence that originally belonged to the King Kong Gang. One of them was the area they were fighting in today, and it was also the place where the King Kong Gang made the most profit. Although the King Kong Gang was very unwilling, they could only bear it and wait until this year's competition to try to win back the lost territory.
"Since these are all problems caused by lack of resources, why not solve this problem fundamentally?" Yun Bai was a little curious. With the strength of eighteen nine-star great monks, they can invite high-level spiritual masters to come here to help the forests and oceans in the chaotic land to recover their vitality. When there are more resources, the fighting here will not be so fierce anymore.
"We have been isolated from the outside world for generations, and that's why the people here haven't been killed by hundreds of years of war. Although we are a little poor and life is a little difficult, we can live in peace. Therefore, the leaders of our ancestors set a rule that outsiders should not be invited into the chaotic place. But--" At this time, they could already see the gate with the plaque of "King Kong Gang". Zhang Xiaodi first waved to the guards in the gatehouse, then smiled and led everyone into the King Kong Gang, and continued: "Now, the times have changed, the war is over, and the leaders' ideas have loosened. We have more and more young people going out to study, and although we still don't invite outsiders in, we don't reject all the good intentions from the outside world. At the same time, we will not completely isolate other outsiders-otherwise, you may not be able to come in here."
"We paid to get in." Xiaohua said a little indignantly.
"Hehe... this is the rule. Besides, after all, we can't guarantee that all outsiders are good people, and we can't guarantee that all those who say they are here to help can really help. However, if someone can really help us restore the vitality of the forest and the ocean in the end, we will definitely treat him well." Xiaohua's straightforwardness made Zhang Xiaodi a little embarrassed, but he still told the truth to them.
As they were talking, a pleasant voice was heard from afar: "Third brother, why did you come back just now! Who are these people--" As the voice fell, a beautiful woman in her thirties with a hot body appeared in front of everyone. Except for little brother Zhang, all the members of the King Kong Gang around saluted the woman and said respectfully: "Greetings, big gang leader!"
