Immediately after stopping at the entrance of the cave, the helping monks gave up and went straight into the cave to change their soaked clothes. Only Jiang Feng and the two coachmen were left.
Jiang Feng jumped out first, cursed about the bad weather, and then turned around and ordered the two cart drivers to unload the cargo quickly. He was a monk and the two ordinary cart drivers had no temper. However, Jiang Feng couldn't just walk in so openly. After all, he was here.
The plan is to make the gatekeeper think that he is coming with the coachman, and for the coachman to think that he and the gatekeeper are on the same team.
Fortunately, the two coachmen were both "honest and honest" types and did not talk to the gatekeeper. Otherwise, the disguise just now might be exposed soon.
Jiang Feng opened the curtain and immediately smelled a pungent smell. Only then did he realize that the carriage was filled with white earth, a special spiritual soil that prevents mosquitoes, venomous snakes, etc. This kind of thing will cause damage to spiritual materials.
A certain amount of pollution affects the performance of spirituality. Superstitious monks believe that carrying this item will bring bad luck, so they are unwilling to carry it. No wonder they did not let the monks bring luck, but found two mortals. There are many poisonous insects in this mountain, and Baihe
The soil is mostly used to pave the cave entrance to reduce the invasion of poisonous insects.
With the curtains covering the carriage, the two carriage drivers carried the white earth on their shoulders one after another and carried it to the cave for storage. Jiang Feng lingered for a moment, ordering the two carriage drivers to do their work. At the same time, he carefully observed the reactions of the two guards and saw that the two men had already
No longer nervous, before the two guards returned, they used the pretext of asking the driver to stack them neatly, and prepared to walk safely into the cave.
Um?
To Jiang Feng's surprise, the thin black guard on the left became alert because of Jiang Feng's actions. Just as he was about to ask questions, Jiang Feng took the initiative to lean forward and said, "It's really hard to be on duty in this weather. I was on the road just now."
, I picked up something, and I’m a little unsure. Can you help me take a look?”
He quickly took out a third-level magic weapon, which was the "high-quality" fake purchased from Cai Qiuzhen's Ningfeng store before, and spread it in front of the dark and thin guard. "It looks like a good one to me."
Magic weapon, can you help me control my eyes?"
This dagger-like magic weapon was made very "real" and successfully attracted the guard's attention. For a moment, he forgot to question Jiang Feng. He looked around for a moment and said, "Sande, come here and see if this is a good product?"
"
"Tsk, tsk, it's obviously a high-level magic weapon, much stronger than yours or mine." The other's eyesight was even worse. He looked over it several times and actually thought it was real. "You said you picked it up?"
"Yes, did someone accidentally lose it?"
"Well, if you put it that way, it seems to me that it belongs to Old Wu." A gleam appeared in the eyes of the guard named San De. He raised his head and glanced at Jiang Feng, and said firmly, "Old Wu has always used daggers.
, I remember this sawtooth, there should be nothing wrong with it.”
"Yes, it's his." The thin black guard from before naturally knew what his companion meant, "Just leave it here. I'll ask Old Wu later. If I make a mistake, I'll return it to you next time I come over."
"Okay, okay, yes, I'll go and see them unloading the goods. Don't pollute the place." Jiang Feng saw that the other party had fallen into the trap, so he took advantage of the absence of the two coachmen and carefully resigned. The two of them had something in their hearts, fearing that he would continue to trick him.
When Ci asked for a flaw, he no longer stopped him. Jiang Feng walked around the screen wall and entered the cave as if nothing had happened.
Behind the screen wall was a larger space, about a hundred paces square, empty and empty. At the end of the hollowed-out mountain, several thick stone pillars blocked the deeper places. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Jiang Feng
Then he walked quickly to the stone pillar and carefully observed the situation deep in the cave.
This is a wider place, about three hundred steps long and ninety steps wide. It is a neat and flat open space. On the rough stone wall, there are inlaid with shimmering crystal stones. Many places
There are soul fire palace lanterns placed, but it is night time and are not activated. On one side of the wall, many array patterns can be vaguely distinguished, while on the other side, there are a large number of protective lanterns neatly stacked.
Judging from the green Baoguang, Armor and Magic Sword should be unified first-level magic weapons.
Monk battle formation? Is this being practiced in secret?
Jiang Feng made such a guess for the first time. His heart was spinning. He had a fish-head magic weapon in his hand. He got it from Ye Mo. It was a recording magic weapon embedded with the Delusion Crystal. He jumped out and entered.
In this hall, activate the Delusion Crystal, carefully surround it, and record the images here.
In a hurry, he was naturally unable to record those array diagrams closely, let alone study the details of those standard magic weapons. He could only record the situation here in a hurry. The Chixia Sect was secretly practicing monk battle formations. This information was extremely important.
If it were reported to the nearby Luoying Sect or the Jincheng Sect, would it have a miraculous effect?
Jiang Feng did not dare to stay longer. He only recorded the images of a few breaths of time. He put away the fish-head magic weapon and returned to the hall. Before he could leave, two monks hurried out from behind. They were the same ones who were before.
Two people helped push the cart.
"What are you doing here?" one person asked loudly, while the other person held the magic sword in one hand and stood guard.
"I watched them work. This white soil cannot be left around." Jiang Feng dealt with it carefully.
"Who told you to wander around?"
A person surrounded Jiang Feng and observed him carefully. He seemed to have no impression. He had just helped push the cart and he didn't think much about it. After changing clothes, he remembered that there was an inexplicable monk. He hurriedly came out to check, but he didn't think about it in this cave.
Seeing Jiang Feng, the doubts in my heart increased even more.
"This is my first time here and I don't know the rules here. Fellow Taoist, please forgive me. It is said that the harvest is bad this year. Is this place where food is stored?" He deliberately pretended not to understand.
"Don't talk nonsense when you go out." The guard stared at Jiang Feng, but still failed to lower his guard. Seeing the two cart drivers still carrying the goods, he called them over, "Did this person come with you?"
Broken. My own disguise cannot withstand scrutiny.
Jiang Feng pressed his little finger lightly on the palm of his hand, almost squeezing water out of it, but still showed a more confident smile on his face, secretly warning himself not to act rashly. If someone sees the clues in advance, he just doesn't do it himself.
"Yes, if it weren't for Manager Tian escorting the car, who would dare to walk on the mountain road with the heavy rain and howling sky?"
Unexpectedly, the coachman actually said something that Jiang Feng couldn't understand at all. What was the situation? What was going on with the coachman? Why was he talking to him?
"Yes." Seeing the coachman's confirmation, the guard also breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't wander around in the future!"
"Yes Yes."
Jiang Feng nodded repeatedly and hurriedly walked out of the cave in three steps at a time. He bumped into the two guards from before. The three of them looked at each other with a smile, said hello, and then left chatting and laughing.
This is a magic weapon that has completely hacked me, Jiang Feng thought to himself. He waited for the two carriage drivers at the entrance of the cave until they finished unloading the goods, then got on the carriage and confidently waved goodbye to the guards.
The heavy rain had stopped and turned into a drizzle. Jiang Feng sat in the carriage and gradually went away. He found that the coachman next to him who had just lied was shivering.
Before he could speak, he saw a figure suddenly jump out of the woods on the right. Jiang Feng was about to take precautions when he heard the man shout in a low voice, "Don't do anything, we're one of our own!"
Um?
The person who came was a masked man in black. He stopped the carriage and threw a small bag of spiritual stones to the driver. "Remember, don't talk nonsense about what happened before. If you bring people here without permission, your whole family will die!"
"Yes, yes, I don't know how to talk nonsense." The two coachmen were so frightened that they fell off the carriage and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Get out of here!"
The two quickly climbed into the carriage. After a trembling scolding and whipping, the four wildebeests quickly disappeared at the end of the mountain road.
"Qiu Zhenzhen?"
Jiang Feng had already identified the person from the voice as a female monk. When she took off the mask and scarf on her head, revealing her wavy hair, she recognized her immediately.
…………
Yufeng Sect, Jindu City.
As the seat of Yufeng Sect, Jindu City is not prosperous. It is close to Fuhaimen and can barely be regarded as the largest border trade city in the sect. Although there are many ancient buildings with jade railings and brackets and cornices, apart from the cultural and repair works,
In addition to the prevailing wind, the climate here is dry and sandy compared to Lianchi City and Xiaoting City on the coast of the Stone Sea, so it is not favored by literary cultivators.
As soon as Tai Ronghao returned to his mansion, he summoned his disciples Liu Canran and Mu Qianxue.
"Qianxue, I have informed the Ling family that they will fully support you as the city lord of Nanping City. This place is adjacent to Chuigong City to the west. Canran will go with you and cooperate with Ling Feidu as soon as possible to take actual control of Chuigong City."
"What should I do about Ansai City?" As one of the three southeastern cities of Yufeng Sect, Ansai City is now in the hands of the Li family. It has considerable constraints on her plans. Mu Qianxue couldn't help but ask.
"Ansai City is one of the foundations of the Li family. It is impossible for the Ling family to interfere openly. This is up to you, but you must avoid doing it yourself to avoid giving others the leverage."
"The three southeastern cities are lacking in resources and are not a place to build troops. If we can cross Ansai City and cross the border between Tianlimen and Luoyingmen, there is a good third-level spiritual land in Shuangju City, which can be used as the basis for development." Tai Ronghao said,
"But don't be eager for quick success. Your arrangement in Taimu Mountain in Chuigong City cannot be replicated in Shuangju City. The city lord Situ Nan is a casual cultivator and is only loyal to the head family. If the action is too drastic, things may easily change.
.”
"Yes, my disciple has learned the lesson."
"I will be in seclusion in seven days. It can take as little as ten years or as much as thirty years to hit the pseudo-celestial level. During my seclusion, if anything happens, you two have to evacuate Yufeng Sect and go to Red Dragon Gate.
Qiu Daocheng, he will save you."
"Yes, I am ashamed that my master has made me miss you."
"I just hope that when I come out of seclusion, you will have grasped the situation. Although Yufeng Sect is in chaos, there are many people loyal to the head family. Since I have helped you connect with the Ling family, although the Ling family will help you secretly, in the
Until you take the initiative, they will not directly help you, so you still need to secretly observe who can join your command and work for you, but there is one thing you must always pay attention to. "
"What?"
"Don't go against the wishes of the 'Nine Old Men'. The entire Hokuriku situation and the main context are actually controlled by the Nine Old Men. The reason why I think now is a good time and support you to take advantage of this to take action is all controlled by rumors.
Fuhaimen, Lu Donglai, a member of the Nine Old Men of Yufeng Sect, has a problem. This matter is very likely to cause changes in the situation in Beilu, and the recent changes in Fuhaimen may be caused by this."
"Whenever there is an opportunity, you must first get Yufeng Sect's 'Golden Book of Inheritance'. With this object, you can take the initiative, and your words are true. On the other hand, if the leader is forced to have no way out, he will definitely
I will sacrifice the golden book in exchange for a chance for the Nine Old Men to take action. When the time comes, you will definitely not be able to resist the heaven-level experts. Even if I get out of seclusion, I will still be far from their opponent."
"yes."
"Remember, once you gain the upper hand, immediately invite Ling Zhiyun, the head of the Ling family. Your strength will still not be on the table."
"Yes, I will obey my master's teachings."
Mu Qianxue bowed again and said goodbye to her mentor, and then discussed with her senior brother Liu Canran for a while. They planned to first secretly transfer all the spiritual monks from the Mu family and Liu family, except those with positions in the inner sect, to Chui Gong City and Nanping City.
Xuan-level monks, those with combat skills, moved to the three southeastern cities of Yufeng Sect in batches.
As for the formation diagram of the monks' battle formation, the Ling family has to help solve it. The Yufeng Sect has been established for more than a thousand years and has a lot of inheritance in this area. However, only those in high positions have the opportunity to come into contact with it, and the Ling family is one of them.
It would be difficult to gather candidates for a sixty-man monk formation in a short period of time. In this regard, Liu Canran lacked connections and could not help. However, the Mu family and the Ling family each had several branch families that could be used. However, among them
Mu Qianxue understands the loyalty issues related to the loyalty of many monks and cannot assemble hastily at once. Moreover, she also knows that she must find a suitable excuse to safely transfer so many monks to the three border cities. Mobile version::
This requires an opportunity.
After sending her senior brother Liu Canran away, she looked at the secret information about Fu Haimen in her hand, thinking about the details and the opportunities that could be exploited. As her master said, the incident involving Lu Donglai, a member of the Nine Old Men, was
As a close neighbor of Yufeng Sect, the cause of the abnormal movement of Fuhai Sect will inevitably be affected. She took out a detailed map of the northern part of Yufeng Sect and studied it for a moment. She made a rough calculation in her mind and found that she had no time left for her.
too much.
…………
Qianshan Sect, Beimu County, in a simple inn, Jiang Feng sat at the main seat with an extra report in his hand.
"How credible is the matter you investigated?"
Jiang Feng carefully checked the price list of common items provided by Qiu Zhenzhen. Six of the items were clearly marked, and he estimated the quantity circulating here and the possible profits. It can be said that Qiu Zhenzhen has a special interest in spirit stones.
Really, I have some talent in this area.
"I have personally inquired about these, and I have investigated more than one place. I have been to the market towns near Chixiamen, Jinchengpai and Luoyingmen, and I have inquired about more than one shop."
"But what are you doing in that valley?"
"I was just passing by."
"to be honest."
"I went to Pujiang Town and accidentally found out where to ask." Qiu Zhenzhen was asked and had no way out. He could only tell the truth. Even if he passed by, he couldn't pass by a valley. When he checked the prices and found the barren mountains, it was simply unreasonable.
.But ask this disciple, if he can't keep secrets well, how can he casually tell his whereabouts to someone he only met once? He must be warned next time.
"Why are you following me?"
"I'm worried that you, Master, are in danger."
Huh? Jiang Feng thought that she and Qiu Zhenzhen had already ended their relationship in Nuangu County. She was worried about what she would do, so she stared at Qiu Zhenzhen suspiciously, but Yi gently pulled back her wavy hair and winked coquettishly.
Jiang Feng felt flustered, and he quickly turned his head to avoid the other party's seductive gaze.
"Thank you for your concern." However, Jiang Feng didn't believe it in his heart.
"You're welcome. After you entered the cave, I just got on the carriage and secretly threatened the coachman once or twice. Then I gave the coachman fifteen spiritual stones. You saw it too. Just give me thirty spiritual stones." She said.
He stretched his hand directly in front of Jiang Feng.
"And, in order to thank me, you need to promise me one, no, two things."
