Chapter 1 Peace Talk

In a blink of an eye, a month passed.

This day, spring is bright.

Gongsun Yu returned to the old Li family house in Xiaoqingshan outside Qingjiang City again. He looked at the scenery in front of him and the servants of the Li family who were busy planting rice rice, and felt a lot of emotion.

More than three months ago, he was the Prince of Qingjiang City, the Lord of Qingjiang City, and the old house of Li family outside the city. He came as soon as he wanted to come. Now, Qingzhou has changed its days and has become a guest from afar. Without invitation, he is not qualified to embark on this picturesque land.

The lotus pond spits green, and fish jump out of the water from time to time. On the ground and by the ridges of the fields, rows of magnolias stand like sentries, horizontally and vertically, with flowers blooming brightly and fragrant.

On the hills, trees of different branches and leaves are arranged in an orderly manner, and the trees in the forest are also horizontal and vertical.

Rivers, canals, and field stems divide rice fields, dry fields and vegetable fields into pieces. More than 80% of the fields are horizontal and vertical, and the remaining 20%, either round, oval, or fan-shaped, obviously the traces of manual cutting are less natural beauty. It should have been tasteless, but when put together, it does not have a sense of incongruity, but instead has a different beauty.

A group of gray ducks, more than ten thousand, passed through the field in a mighty way. The duck commander was an old man with his teeth leaking, but he still whistled happily. The bamboo in his hand waved casually. The ducks screamed, and followed the direction designated by Changzhu, one by one, squirted their wings and rushed into the river excitedly, attacking the fish, shrimps and grass in the river.

From a distance, the ducks looked like a large army, uniform and majestic.

More than a hundred young girls mixed up into two teams, playing on a hillside. The team in red clothes, the team in blue clothes, holding bamboo guns and wooden knives, were attacking, shouting, laughing, scolding, screaming, and even crying. The young men were snatching the control of a single stone as big as a room on the hillside, fighting over and over again, enjoying it.

Another group of older boys in black were practicing riding and shooting. Dozens of black-cone beasts were carrying the group of boys and running on the avenue. Each boy held a crossbow in his hand. When he passed by a hillside in circles, crossbow arrows flew together and shot towards a target between two big trees on the hillside. These targets were not dead objects, but dragged a live target that could move with a rope.

At the three hundred-meter-high watchtowers, another group of teenagers were practicing climbing, as light as apes, constantly climbing down from the watchtowers, and then jumping down with ropes.

On the west side of the watchtower, there is a building built with huge stones on a hillside. From time to time, beasts roars, tigers roars, wolfs howls, and spiritual sense swept over. A group of young men are training tigers, leopards, wolfs, bears and other beasts.

In the most concentrated area of ​​the house, clear sounds of children came from a spacious and clean house. A group of children sat upright in front of desks, singing a song under the leadership of an old man with gray hair but straight waist. Each child was placing a book on his desk.

On the river west of the house, a group of women were washing clothes and sand. The wooden hammers were flying, causing the parents to talk nonsense, and laughter and scolding came from time to time.

This pastoral area is full of vitality everywhere.

Gongsun Yu has seen such a scene too many times. The Li family does not raise lazy people or waste. Everyone on this land is useful. No matter young or young, men and women, they must work hard to live. Young people need to train and learn; young people need to hunt, guard the home; middle-aged people need to plow the fields and do business; elderly people need to herd sheep and cattle; women need to raise silkworms and weave clothes.

But behind this hard work, I have gained extraordinary value. Looking at the entire Qingjiang County, this group of Li family servants can be said to be the richest, strongest and most enviable group of people.

In just over ten years, this group of homeless refugees who have no clothes to wear and no food to eat have undergone earth-shaking changes.

Now, among these Li family servants, there are men and women who are married to choose their wives and son-in-law. As long as the wind is released, matchmakers in the entire Qingjiang City will flock to you, and good women and men in the entire Qingjiang City will line up for them to choose.

When Gongsun Yu saw this scene before, he would feel warmth and strength burst out from the bottom of his heart, longing and fantasizing that the entire Qingjiang County and the entire Qingzhou people could have such a life.

Now, he suddenly felt that his previous desires and fantasies were dreaming, and he had an unrealistic dream. His efforts for more than ten years suddenly became a silhouette. Qingjiang County, a homeland where he sheds his blood and sweat, turned into someone else's. When he thought about it, he suddenly felt hatred and jealousy for the person he was about to meet.

The group of Wang Ting monks following Gongsun Yu were in a very different mood from Gongsun Yu. Since they fell off the flying boat and stepped onto this land, their eyes were not enough.

The middle-aged people who plant rice seedlings in the fields, the old men who shed cattle and ducks, and the women who were washing clothes could not arouse their interest, while the teams of teenagers, pavilions and towers, towering whistles, solid watchtowers, woods, fields, lotus ponds, canals, house layouts, and the old houses of the Li family in the distance attracted their attention.

These buildings and the secretly legitimate arrays between Tian Lin. The training of these young men contained the military and combat formation methods. The Li family’s old house seemed calm, but there was a mysterious formation hidden inside.

There are only more than twenty monks in this team, but they are all at the level of purple star and above, and they are all elites of the Wang Ting. From their eyes, it is naturally obvious that these teenagers in training are not monks, but mortals, but these mortals can actually subdue the training of the first-level monster black cone beast. The crossbows they hold in their hands are enough to kill the Blue Star monks under dozens of intensive attacks. Another team of 14 and 15-year-old young men dare to whip and train the tiger and wolf beasts. If they grow up and ask them to form a team of thousands of people, wouldn’t it be possible to fight against the cultivator forces and small sects?

A group of mortals can be so extraordinary. What if a group of monks are replaced?

No wonder Chixue City can defeat the three major forces in Qingzhou, no wonder overseas demons and overseas forces have difficulty killing on land.

As they walked along the way, Qingzhou was full of busy mortals, and busy monks were everywhere, opening mountains and splitting stones, building bridges and paving roads, and building water conservancy. The monks actually did the business of mortals. And there were few complaints, but they were all full of energy and responsible, which was surprising. According to Gongsun Yu, Qingzhou has been doing such things for more than ten years. Of course, the strength of the past ten years is far less than that of now. Before, the government acted as a leader and promoter, but now the role of an official has been replaced by a monk.

According to the news collected by the Shadow Guard, the four major forces in Qingzhou sent almost 90% of their disciples to serve as officials and used them as herdsmen. Even the Yinxing and Zixing monks were no exception. In the future, the amount of resources obtained by the four major forces in Qingzhou will be directly related to the prosperity of the place.

The neatness and prosperity of Qingjiang City surprised these elites of the royal court. There were no refugees, no beggars in the city, and even people with rags and faces on the streets. There were very few armored men patrolling the top of Qingjiang City, and there were even fewer armored men patrolling in the city, but there were no disputes or thieves.

There is no such city in Zhongzhou. Even the richest imperial capital, there are refugees and beggars, and thieves and bandits passing by.

"The person who studied Qingjiang County in Qingzhou, and the person who studied Qingjiang County was the Li family!"

This was Gongsun Yu's explanation. They didn't believe it just now. But now, they believed it. Although Qingjiang City was neat, it was not as clean as the Li family's outer house. There were no fallen leaves and weeds on the squares. Even cow dung and sheep dung seemed to have been cleaned up by a special person.

The land under their feet and the people above this land are the source of the drastic changes in Qingzhou.

The person who gave this source motivation was Li Yu. At this moment, he was waiting for their visit in the old house of the Li family.

In this team, Gongsun Yu was nominally responsible for the peace talks and was the leader. In fact, he was just a leader. Three elders of the Wangting Elders were hidden in this team, and the ancestor of Venus Gongsun Jingming and Venus Consecrated Li Kuntai were also in this team.

A month ago, the Wang Ting Presbyterian Church changed drastically, and more than half of the elders abdicated. Wang Ting's three Venus Ancestors unanimously elected Gongsun Mingyue, the young new elder, as the rotating elder, to take charge of the power of the Wang Ting Presbyterian Church.

Immediately afterwards, Gongsun Yuan retired, and Gongsun Haoran succeeded the current emperor.

Without destruction or establishment, the Wang Ting carried out a major change of officials in the six states under his jurisdiction. Gongsun Yu, who had just entered the Silver Star Realm, was the King of Huzhou who was appointed. If the peace talks were successful, Gongsun Yu would take up the post of Huzhou and hold a real position. Among the elite team of the royal court behind him, there were many young Silver Star monks who were the kings of the marquis of other states and the generals of the Flying Tiger Army.

The Wang Ting wanted to reform and learn from Qingzhou. In the six prefectures under its jurisdiction, the power of the Wang Ting was weakened, and living peacefully with the major sects in these six prefectures. The herdsmen should be the first priority and the people should be fought for the hearts of the people.

This trip to Qingzhou was both a peace talk and a learning process. We wanted to let these appointed kings see what Qingzhou looked like and what Li Yu, the number one enemy of Wang Ting, looked like.

With their cultivation, we can naturally see that at this moment, the old house of Li family did not open the formation, and not many cultivators entered. It can even be seen that the spiritual veins of Xiaoqingshan are extremely poor. However, according to the information found by the Shadow Guard, Li Yu had been in this old house of Li family for more than a month, staying in the old house of Li family, and not seeing outsiders.

And in this month, overseas forces have never invaded Qingzhou again, as if they have completely retreated.

Perhaps because of the reason why he knew Gongsun Yu, the Li family servants did not stop him except for curiously looking at Wang Ting and his party.

The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful, which surprised and relieved the cultivators of Wang Ting.

Peace talks are also negotiations. I originally thought that Li Yu would have heavy troops to protect him, but now it seems that he doesn't take it seriously at all.

However, the Li family's old house was not allowed to break in. As early as dozens of miles away from the Li family's outer courtyard, they had received a voice-transmitting warning. When they approached the Li family's outer courtyard, they abandoned their flying boats and walked on foot.

Seeing that he had arrived in front of the gate of the Li family's old house, someone finally came out.

Gongsun Yu knew that the ugly young man in black was Li Yu's close friend, and the other young man with a tiger back, bear waist and a big beard, was also familiar with him. He was Li Meng, the eldest son of the Li family. Over the past ten years, Li Meng has also been in charge of this Li family's old house and has dealt with Gongsun Yu.
