Seeing that Fan Renkai had adapted well, Wen Yu thought for a moment and did not show up immediately, instead walking around the camp a few times.

The team that fled south had changed greatly from when she first arrived, but Wen Yu rarely had the opportunity to take a closer look at their situation.

It has just been breakfast now, and those who can move around freely are practicing with Fan Renkai.

Wen Yu looked at it for a while and found that this man had really put a lot of thought into training his troops.

Because Fan Renkai had been an official and had a friendship for emergency training before the war, even though he had joined not long ago, everyone listened to his words and adjusted the location of the camp overnight, settling on a nearby location with convenient access.

water source.

Wen Yu walked around and found that Juma and Li Tu were deployed outside the camp. The entire area was divided into four parts except for the center.

Fan Renkai also let people from Xiao'an Village and Qixian County mix and camp together. There are a fixed number of steps between each camp, and each camp has its own small flag as a mark.

A large pit was dug a hundred paces away from the center point of each two camps and used as latrines, still in the downwind direction.

"It's indeed more organized than before." Wen Yu nodded secretly.

Turning back to Fan Renkai, he has talked a lot about joining the army in the past two days. As of today, he has basically confirmed his "soldiers".

"You have all thought about the pros and cons of joining the army. If you win the battle, you will have money and food. If you lose the battle, you may even lose your life."

Fan Renkai had a sullen face and glanced around sharply. Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, he continued, "Of course, you just want to get to Yongzhou safely and won't fight frequently."

"If you have already made up your mind, are afraid of death and don't want to take risks, you can leave now."

Fan Renkai turned his back and heard a few rustlings in the team, as if someone was moving.

It wasn't until there was silence behind him that he turned around and nodded: "Very good, you will be my subordinates from now on... no, you will be Miss Wen's soldiers."

Wen Yu heard this and wanted to correct him. Everyone chose to join the army to protect their families, not her soldiers. However, the time was not right and Wen Yu could not disturb Fan Renkai's military training.

After watching for a while, Fan Renkai divided the people into five teams, each team selected a flag general, and asked each flag general to choose three squad leaders, and the squad leaders each selected ten people, for a total of one hundred and seventy people.

, some of the seriously injured are unable to move and are still recovering.

After each team selected its members, Fan Renkai asked them to use the young and energetic members of the team as rattan players, and the older and more powerful ones as spearmen, and they would work together in pairs.

After that, the boring exercises were repeated. Wen Yu didn't stay long, still thinking about Xiao Bai and the white hosta.

After walking some distance away from the camp, Wen Yu first set up a warning formation, then added a layer of phantom formations, and then took out the white jade hairpin.

Except for the abnormal movement of the hairpin itself, it was no different from an ordinary hairpin at other times. Wen Yu used his consciousness to try to find some content related to spiritual power and talismans, but as before, he found nothing.

"What is the law, or what is the force?"

Wen Yu sat cross-legged, holding a white jade hairpin in her hand and playing with it repeatedly.

Turning her palm over, Wen Yu squeezed out a drop of blood from her fingertips and flicked it onto the hairpin.

Bright red blood dripped on the white jade hairpin, sliding down the long end without staining the hairpin at all.

"Except for the first time when the blood melted into the hairpin, there was no reaction after that."

"What triggered its reaction? Can it only be triggered once, or did I try it the wrong way?"

The white jade hairpin was motionless and naturally there was no response, leaving Wen Yu helpless to take it back into the storage ring.

After removing the formation, Wen Yu stretched her legs and put the matter of the white jade hairpin aside. She did not need to interfere with the camp or Chang'an City for the time being. She simply decided to look for the mark left by Xiao Bai to see what it had been up to recently.

Using the Quick Move Technique and the Breath Condensation Technique, Wen Yu walked around for more than half an hour before finding the last mark point.

Outside Chang'an City, there are few plains and many mountains. Wen Yu looked around and found that not far in front of him was a stretch of mountains. There was a vague village at the foot of the mountain, and green fields were opened outside the village.

The location here is relatively remote, and the entrance is difficult to find. Wen Yu got here smoothly because of his divine consciousness and the mark left by Xiao Bai.

The Breath Condensation Technique was still maintained, and no one in the village noticed the intruder. Wen Yu had no intention of interrupting and walked up the mountain according to the information on the last mark.

Passing through the village from the periphery, Wen Yu discovered that the houses here had almost the same structure and were neatly positioned, with straight paths crisscrossing them.

Just like the paradise in the storybook, everyone has a smile on their face, and they will laugh a few words when meeting neighbors.

There is a road up the mountain in the village, paved with stone steps and wooden piles on both sides, which leads to the middle of the mountain.

Wen Yu climbed up the stairs and saw a temple at the end. In front of the temple was an incense burner made of big stone. There were heavy incense ashes inside and half-burned incense candles. Several tributes were placed in front of the temple.

It seems that people in the village at the foot of the mountain are worshiping it.

There is only one stone statue in the temple, with a human body and nine tails, sitting cross-legged in the middle, with an expression neither sad nor happy, and looking down at the futon in front of it with lowered eyes.

"Nine tails, fox clan? Is it a senior of Xiaobai's family?" Wen Yu thought, the information Xiaobai gave was that it was in this temple, but when she arrived, she still didn't see it.

"Huh?" Wen Yu moved a few steps and noticed something strange.

The stone statue obviously didn't move, but Wen Yu felt like he was being watched all the time.

She stepped forward, raised her head and looked at the stone statue, and subconsciously focused her consciousness on its eyes to explore.

"Is there a small space?" Wen Yu found the strange reason.

***

Chang'an City.

Erya was so busy now that she lamented why the day was so slow, but also felt that it shouldn't go by too quickly so that they could make more lanterns.

Her father and Mr. Wei went out this morning with samples of spiritual lanterns, and returned happily within half an hour. They said that the Su family, a well-known wealthy family in Chang'an City, had taken a fancy to the spiritual lanterns. They bought as many as they could and wanted them all.

According to her father, it was the eldest son of the Su family who made the final decision, and he even wanted the exclusive sale of the spiritual lantern. He was willing to buy it at a high price, and requested that the spiritual lantern not be sold to another family in Chang'an City.

After Erya heard about it, she discussed it with Ah Tang, Xiao Xiaozi and others and decided to agree to this condition.

Their spiritual lanterns were originally used to make money, and they did not intend to stay in Chang'an City for a long time. On another point, Mr. Wen said that if you are a cultivator and your strength is above the third level of Qi training, you can try to copy the runes on the spiritual lanterns.

.

They may not understand the principle, but there is no problem in making replicas by imitating cats and tigers.

After comprehensive consideration, Erya decided to squeeze out all the labor force before delivery, and do as much as he could, trying to make the young army earn enough military resources, so that they can start formal training on the road ahead.

So, Erya is crazy busy now.

"Tang, go and see if Qinghe and the others have rested? Xiaoxiaozi and the others can't hold on any longer."

"Dad, we agree to the Su family's exclusive sale. Can you help us increase the price? We can give you a share."

"Uncle Cui, can you bring more people into the city? It would be more secure to hire our people."

"Master, can this lantern be simplified and made into different patterns?"

"..."
