Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1446: Chapter 506: Memory Awakening?

Upon hearing they were going to be assigned to guard the grain warehouse, the faces of those from Huangquan City went green.

They had already mentally prepared themselves, even if they were sent to suppress bandits or patrol to maintain security, but they never expected to be given the idle task of watching over a grain warehouse.

What opportunities are there to accumulate merit in a grain warehouse, unless they want to catch mice?

The thought of a group of Divine Power Realm martial artists being humiliated, like tigers subdued by dogs in the flatlands, unsettled everyone.

"Make us guard the grain warehouse, you’ve lost your damn mind..."

Situ was the most unsettled, his neck flushing red with anger upon hearing this, and he raised his sleeves, ready to question the county magistrate.

"Situ, let it go."

Ye Lingyue and the others stopped Situ, it took some effort to drag this impulsive fellow out of the county government.

Just as Ye Lingyue and the others left, the county magistrate hurried to the backyard.

In the backyard were a few martial artists, scattered in groups.

Some were practicing martial arts, others chatting, appearing quite leisurely.

Standing in the courtyard was a man, medium-built, with a square face, short beard, extremely sharp eyes, hands the size of fans, clearly an outstanding Small Divine Power Realm martial artist.

"Captain An, everything is as you instructed. The Huangquan Team has been assigned to the North Warehouse."

The county magistrate wore a fawning expression, bowing as he spoke.

"Well done, let them guard the grain warehouse, let’s see how they compete with us for merits."

The middle-aged man looked deeply thoughtful.

It turns out that in Fang Ah County, there wasn’t just the Huangquan Team as the sole Demon Hunter representative team now.

These people in the county government were also a Ninth-Tier Representative Team, dispatched to Fang Ah County, called "Tian Jun."

As representatives, upon arriving at Fang Ah County all they wanted was to quickly accumulate merit, be reassigned to the Central Plains region, they knew that in such a place, even the smallest merit was enough for immediate departure.

But the problem was Fang Ah County was too peaceful, there were no demon beasts around, the people lived serenely with no bandits, it’s been peaceful for one or two hundred years.

Even the City Lord responsible for this area was too lazy to station troops here, only symbolically assigning a county magistrate and fifty County Soldiers.

This kind of place, having to accommodate two Demon Hunter teams, was inherently conflicting.

The "Tian Jun" team, upon arrival, first disbanded the County Soldiers, took over their patrol duties, and controlled the county magistrate, intending to play tricks with merits.

But at this time, when hearing another Ninth-Tier Representative Team arrived in Fang Ah County, the "Tian Jun" team leader had a wicked idea, directly assigning them to the North Warehouse, to prevent them from snatching merit.

After leaving the county magistrate, Situ was still indignant.

"Boss, are we really going to guard the grain warehouse? I’ve never felt this humiliated in my life."

"Let’s go and see. You’ve witnessed Fang Ah County’s situation, aside from guarding the grain warehouse, there seems to be nothing else for us to manage."

With a mindset of accepting what comes, Ye Lingyue inquired directions from a local for the grain warehouse, leading the group to the North Warehouse.

Fang Ah County had two warehouses in total, one being the grain warehouse, storing grains collected from eighteen villages of Fang Ah County.

The South Warehouse was a military supplies warehouse, storing some weapons and medicinal supplies.

Ye Lingyue and the others were assigned to guard the North Warehouse.

Calling it a warehouse, it was merely a dozen simple shacks clustered together.

The warehouse entrance was a flat dirt parade ground, a few crooked quivering pine trees, and that was the entirety of the North Warehouse.

The guardian of the grain warehouse was a seventy-year-old deaf and stooped elder, frightened upon seeing a dozen people suddenly appear at the usually deserted North Warehouse, thinking something major had happened.

After explaining their intention, the elder arranged accommodations for Ye Lingyue and the others, with local conditions being basic, everyone would sleep on shared bunks, with men and women staying in separate rooms.

After settling down, everyone’s face was not looking good, they seemed to foresee the coming months or even a year during the Jiu Provinces Hunting, they’d be stuck in this desolate place, untouched by thieves, bandits uninterested in visiting.

Thinking of other Demon Hunters fighting bloodily in the Central Plains, slaying demon beasts, everyone remained silent.

"Don’t be too disappointed, although life here is dull, it’s not necessarily a bad thing. We can use this time to intensify our cultivation."

Ye Lingyue, seeing this, comforted everyone.

With renewed spirit, everyone went to cultivate.

Ye Lingyue went along with Guangzi to find the elderly keeper of the warehouse, inquiring about matters of the North Warehouse.

"Ling Yue, are you really planning to earnestly guard this decrepit warehouse?"

Guangzi saw Ye Lingyue return with a thick stack of account books, pursing his lips.

"No matter how small the task, do not overlook it, Guangzi. Do not underestimate these grain warehouses, did you know this grain warehouse is the largest one close to the Central Plains from Ancient Nine Provinces. The grains inside can supply the Demon Hunters of the Central Plains for two years. Without the food and water from Fang Ah County, the Demon Hunters of the Central Plains would be absolutely hindered."

Ye Lingyue smiled as she spoke.

Before going to Fang Ah County, she had thoroughly investigated Fang Ah County’s details.

Due to the soil and water quality issues of the Central Plains, they don’t produce grain, the water is non-potable, only demon beasts can survive there for long periods.

Some Demon Hunters entering the Central Plains have storage bags.

But even with storage bags, not everyone’s storage bag can resist the Central Plains’ increasingly contaminated Evil Qi like Ye Lingyue’s Hong Meng Heaven, thus supplies become crucially important.

Because of this reason, Fang Ah County’s existence is indeed very important.

It’s just that the hall masters of the Jiu Provinces Alliance and other representative teams had no foresight, thus considering Fang Ah County merely as an insignificant place.

Hearing Ye Lingyue’s analysis, Guangzi almost dropped his jaw.

"Ling Yue, you’re amazing. How did you think of these things? Did you study military tactics in Qing Province?"

What Ye Lingyue spoke about were military principles, if these words came from someone like Xi Jiuye, a Divine Realm War God, Guangzi wouldn’t be surprised, but coming from Ye Lingyue post-reincarnation...

Ye Lingyue hesitated, smiling as she explained.

"I don’t really know, it’s just something that came to me when I saw the map."

Guangzi furrowed his brow slightly.

Sister’s reaction seems off, could it be she vaguely recalls some past memories?

Ye Lingyue didn’t know, in her past life, thanks to the Eight Desolate Divine Sovereign Ye Beiming, she was the first of the Ye Family to learn military strategies and tactics.

It was relying on these military strategies and tactics that later led to her being dubbed the Northern Territory Female War God.

Even Ye Lingri was later able to learn related military strategies and tactics, but in a true contest, might not necessarily surpass Ye Lingyue.
