After Jing Muchen, Atu and Fang Ping discussed and decided on a plan, they secretly left Kaiyuan Mansion with their people and went to no one knows where. Fang Ping was preparing to return to Wanxiang Hall and secretly arrange various defense work.
In the inner courtyard and hall of Kaiyuan Mansion, He Qingyuan summoned the only two Tiangang Guards at the Perfect Body Tempering Realm in the village, as well as four Tiangang Guards at the peak of the Body Tempering Realm, and prepared to order them to follow Fang Ping to the Wanxiang Hall.
Fang Ping now has some understanding of the details of the Kaiyuan Mansion. The elite guard force in the Kaiyuan Mansion is now the two Body Tempering Realm Dzogchen Tiangang Guards and the ten Body Tempering Realm Peak Tiangang Guards.
If He Qingyuan sends these six people to him again, the defense of Kaiyuan Mansion will be useless. As long as the warriors who have perfected the Body Tempering Realm can come and go freely in the mansion.
"Master, I have now reached the level of Steel Bones. You can keep these two guards of the Perfect Body Tempering Realm to guard Kaiyuan Mansion." Fang Ping said sincerely.
He Qingyuan's eyes showed a look of shock, "Have you really cultivated your steel bones to a small degree?"
Fang Ping nodded, "This matter is related to my own life, there is no need for me to lie to you. The guards of the Great Perfection of the Body Tempering Realm will stay in Kaiyuan Mansion to guard. I will bring two peak Body Tempering Realm guards and two mid-stage Body Tempering Realm guards.
Just go back."
He Qingyuan thought about it for a while and said, "Since you have reached the Small Perfection of Tempering Body Realm, I will follow your words."
The two sides had decided on a plan, and Fang Ping was about to say goodbye and leave. The chief steward, He Song, came over with a small roll of paper, handed it to He Qingyuan, and said, "Master, the pigeon letter from the second master of the village has arrived.
"
He Qingyuan let go of the paper tube, read the contents, and his face became a little stiff.
Fang Ping noticed something was wrong and said, "Master, what did my aunt say in the letter?"
He Qingyuan hesitated for a while and said, "Zhiheng said that they encountered a strong enemy near Fengling Town and took refuge in the Luoling Mountains. They may be delayed for some time."
After hearing this, Fang Ping felt a pain in his heart and said, "Auntie, did you tell me the specific location? I will lead people to support immediately."
He Qingyuan frowned and said, "Zhiheng said they can still hold on now and did not tell us the specific location, so we should not worry too much. She still has the last homing pigeon. After three days, she will send a message for help depending on the situation.
Meet us at the appointed place."
The Luoling Mountains have a radius of nearly two hundred square kilometers. If there is no specific location agreed upon, going there rashly is like looking for a needle in a haystack. In addition, Tianjian Medicine Village is about to make a move, Fang Ping has no choice but to suppress the idea of going to support immediately and wait for He Zhiheng for three days.
The message sent back later.
Fang Ping returned to the Wanxiang Hall and discussed with his father the prevention work of the Wanxiang Hall. The Wanxiang Hall currently has no defense force. Fortunately, the stalls have not been opened yet. Only the headquarters of Lishui Town and the store in Mingquan City need to be defended.
.However, to ensure safety, a large number of personnel are indeed needed.
In Qingniu Village, Liu Ruoshi, Xuanxuan and others live, and they must also prevent sneak attacks. Qingniu Village now has nearly two hundred Qingniu guards, dozens of whom are at the Huajing Dacheng level, and a dozen others
By taking the elixir, he entered the early stage of the Body Tempering Realm. As long as he sends one more strong person from the Great Perfection of the Body Tempering Realm to take charge, and adds two or three middle-stage and peak warriors from the Body Tempering Realm to assist him, there shouldn't be much of a problem.
Fang Wenjun discussed with Fang Ping and said with a somewhat solemn expression, "According to our discussion, Qingniuzhuang needs a Dzogchen Body Tempering Realm warrior, a Body Tempering Realm peak warrior and two Body Tempering Realm mid-level warriors.
Lishui Town Headquarters requires two quenchers
There are Dzogchen Body Realm warriors, four Body Tempering Realm peak warriors, ten Body Tempering Realm mid-stage warriors, and twenty Body Tempering Realm early stage warriors, in order to take care of each other with Qingniuzhuang. The store needs a large number of armed guards.
Where are we going to find so many people?”
Fang Ping thought for a while and said, "Over the Meng family, I am going to second two Dzogchen Body Tempering Realm warriors, four Peak Body Tempering Realm warriors, and eight mid-level Body Tempering Realm warriors. Over to the Mercenary Guild, I will let
Shiying dispatched thirty mercenaries at the early stage of the Body Tempering Realm, twenty mercenaries at the middle stage of the Body Tempering Realm, and ten mercenaries at the peak of the Body Tempering Realm. He also saw if his father could also send two mercenaries at the Great Perfection of the Body Tempering Realm.
Commander, come here. As long as there are more than four Dzogchen experts in the Body Tempering Realm, plus me, we should be able to control the situation."
After the two of them had reached an agreement, Fang Wenjun went to the Meng family, while Fang Ping went to the mercenary union, and each went to mobilize the escort force.
Fang Ping arrived at the mercenary union headquarters in Mingquan City and entered the inner hall under the leadership of Xiao Shiying to meet his father Xiao Tianxiong.
After the two parties sat down in the wing room, Fang Ping said straight to the point, "Uncle, I am here to borrow troops. Recently, there may be changes in Mingquan City. I need two Body Tempering Realm Great Perfection Masters.
Mercenaries, ten mercenaries at the peak of the Body Tempering Realm, twenty mercenaries at the mid-stage of the Body Tempering Realm, and thirty mercenaries at the early stage of the Body Tempering Realm."
Xiao Shiying on the side heard this and shouted, "Master, is someone causing trouble again? Why do you want to borrow so many people? According to me, let's pull up a team of people and rush over directly, like wiping out the Tiger Gang.
Wouldn’t it save trouble to exterminate them?”
Xiao Tianxiong had a solemn expression and said in a deep voice, "Shiying, don't talk nonsense." Then he looked at Fang Ping and said, "I was just wondering if something big was going to happen in Mingquan City. But I didn't expect this to happen.
A big event actually involves you. This will make things difficult to handle."
Fang Ping looked at Xiao Tianxiong and asked, "Did something happen to the mercenary union?"
Xiao Tianxiong said, "Our president just called a high-level meeting and asked us not to send mercenaries to the forces in Mingquan City in the near future."
Xiao Shiying said, "President, why did he suddenly give such an order? My master wants people, and I don't care about him."
Fang Ping thought for a while and said, "Shiying, please be patient. This matter is not that simple. Uncle, can you introduce me to the president?"
Xiao Tianxiong said, "This matter is of great importance. It is certainly possible to introduce him. But I guess it will be difficult for the president to change his mind."
Fang Ping did not expect that things would turn out like this. It seemed that Tianjian Pharmacy had used its influence to cut off his support from the mercenary union.
Xiao Tianxiong took Fang Ping to the hall of the mercenary union headquarters, and met Yu Hexiong, the president of the mercenary union. Yu Hexiong was a middle-aged man with a huge body, like an iron tower, with a fierce bloody smell on his body.
His breath and eyes were full of majesty and murderous aura.
After the two parties sat down in the hall, Yu Hexiong did not order anyone to serve tea. Instead, he sat on a chair and asked somewhat coldly, "Master Fang came to see me. What is the matter?"
Fang Ping said loudly, "I would like to hire a group of mercenaries during these days. The price is negotiable, and you can also propose any other conditions, President."
Yu Hexiong had no expression on his face and said, "Mr. Fang, I have something to deal with later and don't have much time to talk to you. So I'll get straight to the point and tell you that this time you have offended someone you shouldn't have offended.
, our mercenary union will not be involved in your dispute this time. If you have the idea of borrowing the power of the mercenary union, please give it up as soon as possible to avoid wasting your efforts."
From Yu Hexiong's attitude towards guests and his expression, Fang Ping already knew that it might not be possible to negotiate cooperation this time, but he still maintained a calm look on his face and said, "In that case, I also
Open the skylight and speak frankly. President, this time is a life-and-death struggle. The current situation is a bit difficult for me. But I have great confidence in the final result. If you are in this difficult situation,
If you help me sometimes, I will remember your kindness in the future and give you generous rewards."
Yu Hexiong still said with a cold face, "What if I don't think highly of you and don't want to help you? Do you want to hold a grudge?"
Xiao Tianxiong saw that Hexiong's tone was not good, and said quickly from the side, "President, you are serious. Mr. Fang has a broad mind, how can he care about such a thing?"
Fang Ping looked directly at Yu Hexiong, a master-level expert, and said, "If the president is unwilling to help me, Fang will never force him to do so. You are a famous figure in Mingquan City. How can I dare to help you?"
Arguing with you? But Fang Mou has something to say, and I still want to remind you, President. Things in the world are unpredictable, and no matter who you are, they will make mistakes sometimes."
Yu Hexiong snorted coldly, "Mr. Fang, instead of spending time reminding others, you should pay more attention to your own situation. I still have important things to deal with, so I won't continue talking to you. Tianxiong, take him away."
Xiao Tianxiong took Fang Ping back to his residence. Xiao Shiying hurriedly came up to him and said, "Master, how are you?"
Fang Ping shook his head, "It seems that President Yu has concluded that I am going to lose, so he is not willing to help me at all." At this time, Fang Ping began to realize the power of Tianjian Pharmacy.
With just one piece of news, they could keep forces like the mercenary union out of the way. This was equivalent to cutting off one of Fang Ping's arms at once.
"If he doesn't want to, then he won't. I don't care about him. I will bring people to help the master. In the worst case, we will break away from the mercenary union and return to Lishui Town." Xiao Shiying said angrily.
"Shiying, what are you talking about? The more you live, the less promising you are. You actually think of going back to live in Lishui Town." Xiao Tianxiong scolded.
Xiao Shiying's words moved Fang Ping's mind. Since Yu Hexiong looked down on him and didn't give him a good look, why should he care about his face? Could it be that he, Fang Ping, has no means and can be looked upon by others?
A lowly person?
After thinking for a while, Fang Ping looked at Xiao Tianxiong and said, "Uncle, if I invite you to join the Wanxiang Hall, will you agree? Now the Wanxiang Hall's funds can fully afford the fee."
Xiao Shiying slapped his thigh and said, "Why didn't I think of this? Since you are tied up in the mercenary union, why don't you lead your brothers and join the Wanxiang Hall directly? This way you don't have to look at people's faces in the future."
Xiao Tianxiong showed consideration on his face and said, "Mr. Fang, I watched you step by step from Qingniu Village to Mingquan City and conquered the world. We can come to Mingquan City because of your blessing.
Since it is your suggestion, I will seriously consider it. However, this matter will encounter great resistance from the president. If we do this, it will definitely anger the president and trigger his revenge. The president is not
It’s hard to say whether fuel-efficient lamps will be successful.”
Fang Ping said calmly, "What if I strongly suggest that you start preparing for this matter now and rise up when the time is right?"
Xiao Tianxiong thought for a while and said, "As long as it is Mr. Fang's suggestion, Xiao will definitely adopt it. Regardless of your future future, you are Shiying's master, and we came to Mingquan City from Lishui Town to work hard together.
There is no reason not to work together. However, I have some advice, and I would like to ask Mr. Fang to listen to it."
Xiao Shiying said, "Dad, what else are you thinking about? The master said we should do it, so let's go and prepare."
Fang Ping waved his hand and said loudly, "Uncle, it doesn't matter if you say so."
Xiao Tianxiong said, "What the president conveyed today is to remain neutral and not participate in the fight between you two. He will not help you, nor will he help Tianjian Pharmacy. Now you are facing pressure from Tianjian Pharmacy, if I
If we prepare here and annoy the president, if he turns to Tianjian Medicine Store, we will be in trouble."
Fang Ping's eyes turned cold and he said, "Uncle, don't worry about this. I don't have no cards to play. President Yu thinks he is lower than me, so I don't have to be polite to him. If he remains neutral, we will
The water in the well does not interfere with the water in the river. If he turns to Tianjian Medicine Store, we will deal with him as well."
Xiao Shiying shouted loudly, "Dad, let's do it with the master!"
Xiao Tianxiong thought for a while, his eyes were shining brightly, and he said, "Okay! It's settled then! I have always been convinced of Mr. Fang's ability. If you have such courage and courage, Xiao will follow you to the death. Shiying,
You take ten of our trusted mercenaries to support Wanxiang Hall. Mr. Fang is your master, so you can follow our old mercenaries from Lishui Town, and it will be difficult for others to stop you. I will go find Commander Lei
strength."
Xiao Shiying's face was full of excitement, "I'll do it right away. If Uncle Lei also takes action, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Lei Jin, the leader of the mercenary union, like the president Yu Hexiong, is also a warrior in the early stage of the Grandmaster. After Xiao Tianxiong told him about Zeng Aniu's family last time, he admired Fang Ping's character very much. In Fang Ping and Gu Yi
During the Chen competition, Lei Jin also showed up to help Fang Ping with Xiao Tianxiong. This time, if he can be invited, it will definitely be a big help to Fang Ping.
In Fang Ping's heart, he couldn't help but sigh. Today's events made him see the warmth and warmth of human nature and the harshness of the world. Although he had known that the world was like this, the real experience left a different feeling in his heart.
There are many scheming, cunning and snobbish people in this world. But fortunately, there are also righteous people like Xiao Tianxiong and Xiao Shiying who can throw their lives and blood for their friends with just a word.
"Uncle, Shiying, I will not let you down. As for those who look down on me, just wait! Wanxiang Hall will definitely step on the corpse of Tianjian Medicine House and reach the top of Mingquan City!" Fang Ping's heart
With these thoughts in mind, I walked out of the door side by side with Xiao Shiying.
