Chapter 51 Civil and Military
The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.
Two months ago, Xiaomeng City was "breaking by barbarians", killing the rich businessmen to blood flow into rivers and mountains, and astronomical wealth was looted. Two months later, countless merchants came from various countries and opened shops in Xiaomeng City again and started trading.
But this time, these merchants could no longer become businessmen, so they could only purchase mountain treasures from many giants of the Xiaomengcheng United Chamber of Commerce, and earn a difference from them. Lu Chengfeng was very clear about the market price of these mountain treasures in various countries. He allowed these foreign merchants to still retain twice the high profits, and all other profits were all returned to Xiaomengcheng.
In two months, the tax collected by Xiaomeng City was the tax revenue for one and a half years when Yi Yan and other former Rencheng were in power.
The inner trunk of Xiaomeng City quickly became sufficient, and Lu Chengfeng began to ambitiously prepare to rebuild the Xiaomeng City wall to build a solid enough stone-shaped city wall that can withstand the attack of the barbarians. Moreover, the new city wall will spread around, encompassing a larger urban area, and making expected preparations for the future expansion of Xiaomeng City.
Backed by the endless mountain delicacies of Mengshan Mountain, Lu Chengfeng was determined to develop Xiaomeng City into a prosperous city, a large city that can be regarded as a large scale in the country of Lu, rather than a remote city that is now considered a wilderness.
On the city gate building, two maids unfolded a scroll that was ten feet wide, and drew a brand new city planning with fine brushwork. Lu Chengfeng, whose face was covered with red light, stood in front of the scroll with his chest, pointing at the scroll with his striking gestures, and thinking about what kind of grand occasion the new Xiaomeng City will be in the future.
Wuqi talked to Lu Chengfeng in a mess. He tilted his head and looked at the road leading directly outside the mountain in the distance, locking his eyebrows tightly.
In two months, Wuqi gradually reached the limit of the innate breathing realm by absorbing the essence of the Tianshui Ling Snake Pill. According to his estimate, with the help of this snake pill, and the help of more than 2,000 water-attributed spirit stones he stole from the inner treasury of Xiaomeng City, ordinary practitioners can easily break through the innate fetal breathing realm and maybe they can form a golden pill.
However, the practice of the thief sutra is mysterious and unique. In the innate realm, the thief sutra pays the most attention to accumulating strength and lays the most perfect foundation for future cultivation. For example, the thief sutra is the most profound and powerful, and the cultivators in the ordinary innate realm have strengthened the meridians at most nine times, while the thief sutra suggests that at least 108 times should be used to strengthen the meridians.
In this way, to improve the true water spiritual energy to the innate fetal breathing realm according to the exercises of the Water Source Chapter, Wuqi needs at least twenty times the spirit stones that are now. However, in Xiaomeng City, he will definitely not be able to obtain so many water-attribute spirit stones.
The most convenient way to get better practice conditions is to join the immortal cultivation sect in this world.
In the past two months, Wuqi learned that there are sects of immortal cultivation in this world, and their power is extremely powerful. However, all sects of immortal cultivation rely on the Dayan Dynasty to survive. All the founders of all the sects of immortal cultivation are descendants of Yanhuang Yandan or their disciples back then.
The background of the Fengfengsi is actually a sect of cultivation of immortals with great potential in the Dayan Dynasty. The founder is Jing Ke, the general of the Dayan Dynasty! Most of the other sects are like this. The ancestors of the sects are closely related to the Dayan Dynasty. The Immortal Cultivation Sect is strictly controlled by the Dayan Dynasty, and the magic tricks of cultivation of immortals are never easily taught. If you want to become a disciple of the Immortal Cultivation Sect, you are either a disciple of the Dayan Dynasty with extremely high talent or a noble child of the Dayan Dynasty!
They were the nobles of the Dayan Dynasty, not the nobles of the Lu State! The lords and families of the Lu State could not be ranked in the Dayan Dynasty.
Wuqi is labeled as Lu Chengfeng, and it is very difficult to become a disciple of the Immortal Cultivation Sect of the Dayan Dynasty! The Dayan Dynasty will not allow the illegitimate son of a small family of the vassal state to become a disciple of the sect. Such a disciple may bring unstable factors to the vassal state and destroy the Dayan Dynasty's rule over the vassal state, so it is extremely difficult for Wuqi to enter the Immortal Cultivation Sect of the Dayan Dynasty.
It was a headache, Wuqi frowned.
He looked at Lu Chengfeng who was talking, and he was puzzled. Why was he the illegitimate son of Mrs. Rongyang? How great would it be if he was Yan Dan's illegitimate son! In this way, wouldn't he be able to easily enter a certain sect of immortal cultivation?
He sighed lightly, Wuqi shook his head and made plans slowly, so there was no need to be too anxious for the time being.
Leaving the thoughts in his mind, Wuqi focused his attention and prepared to listen to Lu Chengfeng's new city design. He was about to withdraw his gaze and look at the scroll. Suddenly, he saw a wisp of sharp smoke and dust rising into the sky on the distant avenue, as if a large group of people rushed over.
He jumped up to the city gate tower. Wuqi raised his eyes and looked over there. A blood-colored torrent was running towards this side. Wuqi hurriedly let out a sharp whistle, and he shouted sternly: "Close all city gates, all crossbowmen, and archers go to the city to guard against it!"
Lu Chengfeng also heard the dense sound of hoofs coming from afar. He hurriedly sent the two maids away, jumped onto the top of the city gate tower, and looked into the distance. He narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance for a while, and laughed coldly: "Look at the color of this armor, it is Fu Yangjun's person!"
A large group of city guard soldiers rushed to the top of the city with strong bows and crossbows, and lined up on the city walls in a row. Behind the crossbowmen were densely filled with soldiers holding large shields and heavy swords. After two months of cruel training, the current city guard soldiers have become very powerful.
Meng Xiaobai also grabbed the city with a group of men from Meng Village. These men from Meng Village held pure iron shields as thick as two inches, carried huge Xuanhua axes, and wore heavy pure steel armor. They were like a group of moving steel golems, giving people great shock.
Wuqi looked at Meng Xiaobai with relief. This little guy was really good. Two months ago, he encouraged the soldiers of the city guards to fight with Liu Zhong. Later, he was arrested by Liu Zhong and tortured him severely, but he didn't even say a word of begging for mercy. No matter how much torture he was, he didn't even hum.
This kid can be used! Wuqi was afraid that he would do something risky when he was impulsive, so he hurriedly called out: "Xiaobai, follow the young master. You are not yet an adult, why are you rushing up to do with the adults?"
Meng Xiaobai retorted a few unwillingly, but the men in Meng Village burst into laughter and drove him back, allowing him to follow Lu Chengfeng. Meng Xiaobai muttered in a gushing manner, walked to the gate of the city gate building in anger, staring at the team in the distance, too lazy to look at Wuqi.
"Boy, have you learned to be angry?" Wuqi burst into laughter.
The hooves were dense, and the sound was loud and loud. In just a quarter of an hour, about 6,000 blood-armored knights roared. These knights were wearing blood-armored armor, and they were all riding on their armor. The armor and battle robe were covered with dust. It was obvious that they rushed to Xiaomeng City without resting all the way.
The fierce knights formed a neat policy outside the city, and the solemn aura rose up from the ground. The knights stared at the city guard soldiers on the top of the city, silently speaking, like a group of stone pillars.
Wuqi stepped forward a few steps, stood behind a battlement of a city wall, poked his head out and shouted loudly, "Who is coming?"
After a full cup of tea, a thin and six-foot-high blood-armored knight slowly rode forward dozens of feet. The knight's eyes suddenly rolled, and he glared at Wuqi fiercely. He shouted sternly: "Luo Kedi, the chief of Fuyang Jun's personal guard, was ordered to welcome the Yihou back."
It was Fu Yangjun's people, and they came to pick up Liu Suifeng's body. Wuqi suddenly regretted that he should have sent someone to send Liu Suifeng's body back to Fu Yangjun's mansion as soon as possible, which would prevent Fu Yangjun from making excuses to send so many people to Xiaomeng City. More than 6,000 blood-armored knights are all elites. Is Fu Yangjun obviously malicious?
But what is he going to do? Will he kill Wuqi and Lu Chengfeng to avenge his son?
Wuqi thought about it, and he shook his head and said, "The city is small, please ask General Luo to camp outside the city."
A gentle man wearing blood-colored leather armor and holding a feather fan rode forward. He looked at Wuqi and shouted: "We are waiting to come back just to welcome Yihou. If we send out Yihou's body, we will turn around immediately and we will definitely not disturb you."
Wuqi looked at the scholar and shouted, "Who is your lord?"
The scribe replied loudly: "It's Ma Liang, a disciple of the Fuyangjun, who is here."
Lu Chengfeng jumped to Wuqi, and he looked at the two people under the city and laughed: "I have heard that there are General Luo Kedi who can take the general's head among the troops around Fu Yangjun; Mr. Ma Liang, who killed people invisibly, has a spiritual tongue. He has heard of the great name for a long time in the wind!"
Ma Liang smiled slightly, and casually hugged the city with both hands, without saying a word.
Luo Kedi shouted sternly: "Stop talking nonsense. Hand over the body of the Yihou, and we will go back now."
The more than 6,000 blood-armored knights behind him shouted in unison, and then they all shouted to the sky: "Yihou! Yihou! Yihou!"
These blood-armored knights all had great true energy cultivation. More than 6,000 people shouted loudly, which made the city walls on Xiaomeng City tremble.
"It's not going well!" Lu Chengfeng frowned.
"Why do I think that once the city gate is opened and Liu Suifeng's body is sent out, they will immediately attack Xiaomeng City and massacre the city?" Wuqi looked at Luo Kedi and Ma Liang outside the city with a smile, and laughed in a low voice: "Can we do too much trouble?"
Lu Chengfeng looked at him unhappily: "What does Liu Suifeng have to do with poisonous insects? "
Wuqi was silent for a while, and he leaned against Lu Chengfeng's ear and whispered: "But I ejected that poisonous insect into his ear!"
Wuqi giggled, while Lu Chengfeng's eyes turned pale and he couldn't speak for a long time. Now he suddenly felt that what he thought was that the more than 6,000 blood armored knights below were just siege to take revenge?
The two of them looked at me and I looked at you. After a long time, Lu Chengfeng shouted loudly: "General Meng, please ask the general and Mr. Ma Liang to lead a hundred subordinates into the city to welcome Junhou back in person."
Luo Kedi raised his head, stared at Wuqi and Lu Chengfeng for a few glances, and then waved his hand.
