Chapter four hundred and eighty second secret passage
Just when there was peace in the pine garden of Liuye City, all over the Lingding Continent, major cities were fighting for natural resources and treasures, setting off endless bloody turmoils one after another.
Herbal pickers on this continent have never been so valued as they are now. Each big city bribes each other's herbal pickers from herbal medicine shops in big cities, and even fights and assassinates each other to compete for a certain experienced herb picker.
.
Among them, a family of herbal collectors quickly emerged. However, in this competition for medicinal materials and heavenly materials and earthly treasures, they could not clearly see their own position. Their self-restraint was valued by many warriors, and they participated in something that did not belong to them.
In the battle where he was able to participate in the battle, the city lord of one of the big cities thought that if it could not be used by him, it would be used by others, so he ordered its annihilation.
This family of herb collectors also caused fights and fights among several warriors from big cities.
These messages were sent back through the guards who were released from the pine garden to collect medicinal materials. This time, the people in the pine garden did not participate in any competition for medicinal materials. They were only responsible for keeping in touch with the city lords in the major cities. Once there was a breakthrough pill,
If other rare medicinal materials or treasures from heaven and earth appear, they will come out to negotiate with the city lord and exchange them for elixirs.
Two months later, another major event happened. Gannan City and Fuyu City started fighting privately between warriors for two natural and earthly treasures in the hands of a herb collector, and developed into an offensive battle between the two major cities.
.
Since Shen Gannan's decline in realm, in order to exchange for healing elixirs, he spent almost all of his family's savings in exchange for the elixirs.
This former peak martial artist is more determined and urgent to return to the realm than those warriors who have never climbed to this realm.
In the process of collecting medicinal materials, the warriors under Shen Gannan acted extremely decisively and ruthlessly. They would rob if they couldn't buy them and kill them if they couldn't get them.
Similar to Gannan City, there are warriors from Zhenxia City, and even the warriors from Zhenxia City act more viciously. Once they hear that the treasures of heaven and earth they need appear somewhere, they send a large number of warriors to siege the entire place.
Surrounded by them, they killed countless warriors and herbal collectors from other big cities in the deep mountains and old forests.
This approach of Gannan City and Zhenxia City aroused public indignation in other big cities. These two city lords were no longer at the peak of their martial lord status, but they still continued to behave in the same domineering way.
Finally, Fuyu City united with Mengyuan City, Xihai City, Sixiang City, and Wangtian City. These five cities first fought a fierce battle with Gannan City, and then besieged Zhenxia City for half a month.
In the end, the two former top martial masters were beaten so hard that they no longer dared to send warriors out of the city.
Almost every day in the pine garden, news was received from the guards sent to various cities. Yu Yizhi also drew and wrote on a piece of paper every day. Finally, he was surprised to find that now, Liuye City is in
After experiencing two heavy losses, not only did the martial arts strength not fall behind, but because other big cities continued to lose high-quality warriors, it ranked among the top five in Lingding Continent.
He once again calculated the number of high-level warriors in Lingding Continent on a piece of paper, repeated the calculation several times, then burned the paper to ashes, and called Yang Yiling to the alchemy room.
"There are now less than fifty Martial Lords in Lingding Continent, and the losses among warriors in the Martial Emperor realm are even more serious. In just the past three months, more than 200 Martial Emperors have died. The news came back yesterday that the Lord of Fuyu City and Meng Yuan
The city lord has started a dispute again, and it is estimated that there will be another battle, and some warriors in the realm of Martial Lord and Martial Emperor will lose their lives."
After Yu Yizhi finished speaking with a smile, he saw Ming Zhiyuan nodded slightly and continued: "After Zhenxia City and Gannan City were besieged by five cities, there was also a battle for the city masters in their big cities. Some realms were different from those of the two city masters.
The leaders of the four bureaus above and below are also trying to oust the two of them from the position of city lords. It is estimated that a fight will inevitably happen, and these two big cities are considered useless."
Ming Zhiyuan held a piece of medicinal material in his hand and cut it carelessly while saying: "The four great peak cities of Martial Lord are all abandoned, and 70% to 80% of all the spirit stone veins in Dongshan City and Sixiang City belong to us.
In this way, the price of exchanging spiritual stones for silver notes on the Lingding Continent has actually remained unchanged. It seems that the spiritual stone resources on this continent are still much richer than we imagined."
After finishing speaking, he looked up at Yu Yizhi and Yang Yiling, thought for a moment and then said: "As long as this kind of cultivation resources are enough, it is only a matter of time before a new Martial Lord or a peak Martial Lord appears in Lingding Continent.
Various battles and killings have been so frequent during this time, and they actually still have nearly fifty Martial Lords, which shows that there must be new Martial Emperor realm warriors promoted to Martial Lords during this time.
Although the situation now is much better than when we first came to Lingding Continent, it is still not enough. You see, their own people in Lingding Continent can fight to the death so much. If it comes to a battle between two continents,
When the time comes, I'm afraid it will be even more extreme and bloody."
"Yes, it's not enough now. However, this kind of competition will continue. We are not in a hurry. We can wait and see. Fortunately, our cultivation here will not stagnate. On the contrary, with so many resources
, it’s something I never dared to think about before.”
Yang Yiling said with a smile, then looked at Lan Yujun who was listening to them, and said: "It's just that this little girl wants to delay returning to Tianyuan Continent as soon as possible."
Lan Yujun raised her little face, smiled sweetly, and said: "Anyway, I'm with Brother Zhiyuan and my two grandpas. It doesn't matter where I am."
Yu Yizhi looked at Lan Yujun's innocent look with a smile, suddenly frowned and said: "In the past year or so since we came to Lingding Continent, there have been great changes among the major cities. Do you think anyone will
What can you see?"
Ming Zhiyuan was still slowly cleaning some wrinkles and beards on the medicinal materials, and slowly said: "Someone will definitely notice something, it's just a matter of time, as soon as we come out, the warriors of Lingding Continent will beat us to death.
, nearly half of the Martial Master Realm Martial Masters have been lost. However, even if someone sees something, they dare not move for a while. The lessons of Sixiang City and Dongshan City are not far away, but it will wait for time in the future.
After a long time, if they are connected in series, it will be uncertain."
"Then we have to take precautions. Let's just let the handsome boy and the others hide in the pine garden. Let's dig a secret tunnel under the pine garden and lead to the outside of the city. Let the handsome boy and the others practice and wait in the secret tunnel."
Ming Zhiyuan nodded in agreement with Yu Yizhi's suggestion, and said: "Young men, they don't need to go into the city. We can dig a secret tunnel. The secret tunnel will lead directly to their spirit stone veins in Beishan."
When he said this, he paused, looked at Yu Yizhi and said: "If the handsome guys are allowed to enter the pine garden, there are many people in the pine garden today, and most of them are not our own. How many people will be discovered by them accidentally?"
With the existence of a magical beast, there is no need for others to guess. Someone will immediately understand where we come from? What caused the incident in Lingding Continent?"
"How long does it take to dig from Beishan to the bottom of the pine garden?"
Lan Yujun looked at Ming Zhiyuan in surprise.
"Don't underestimate them. The sharp claws of the monsters are more effective than any sharp weapon. I bet that as long as a few of them start, they can dig under the pine garden in less than half a month."
When talking to Lan Yujun, Ming Zhiyuan always sounded amused by her unconsciously.
Lan Yujun looked unbelieving, "No matter how powerful they are, they won't be able to dig into Liuye City for a month or two, let alone dig into the pine garden. The pine garden is located in the center of Liuye City."
.”
"Okay, let's make a bet. If we lose, you will become my apprentice."
Ming Zhiyuan looked at the little girl with a provocative expression.
"Okay, I bet it takes a month for them to dig underground in the pine garden."
Lan Yujun thought for a while and thought it was a little unreliable, so he shortened the time by half.
"Okay, I'll bet you."
"If I lose, I will be your apprentice. What if you lose?"
"I lose, it's impossible."
"Tell me quickly, what if you lose?"
Ming Zhiyuan looked at the little girl amusedly, "Then tell me, what should I do if I lose?"
"If you lose, just... just... marry me."
Ming Zhiyuan looked at her dumbfounded, "What are you thinking about? Is this a bet?"
"Why isn't it called a bet? If I lose, I can be your apprentice. If you lose, you have to marry me."
Yu Yizhi and Yang Yiling watched the two people arguing, shook their heads and smiled bitterly, and left the alchemy room together.
After seeing the two of them leaving, Ming Zhiyuan smiled bitterly and said to Lan Yujun: "Little girl, you can't say such things anymore. It doesn't matter if the two seniors hear it. If outsiders hear it, they will laugh at you."
"Why are you laughing? I have never seen a man marry a woman. Whoever dares to laugh at me, I will...I will let grandpa beat him."
"See how promising you are?"
"What? You don't dare to gamble anymore?" Lan Yujun asked angrily.
"It's a big bet, no one would use this as a bet."
"Then you are not. If I lose, I will become your apprentice. Why can't you marry me if you lose?"
Ming Zhiyuan stood up, rubbed the little girl's head, messed up her tied hair, and then said: "I'm going to refine the elixir, why don't you watch the fire?"
"Look, why don't you look?"
Ming Zhiyuan stopped paying attention to her and turned around to rummage through the medicine shelves. Lan Yujun sat on the low stool in front of the stove with an indignant look on his face, chopping the firewood on the ground with a woodcutter.
, and kept mumbling words in his mouth.
"I just want to be my master, I just want to be my master. There are so many people in Songyuan, why don't you accept them all as disciples?"
Ming Zhiyuan listened to the little girl's thoughts and sighed helplessly in his heart. These days, he always thinks of Baihua. Every time he sees Lan Yujun smiling happily in front of him, his mind goes crazy.
Baihua's gentle smiling face will appear in them.
If Baihua knew that he came to Lingding Continent and there was such a little girl who never left her, clamoring to marry him every day, how sad would Baihua feel?
However, he also noticed that his mentality was slowly changing. This little girl was becoming more and more important in his heart. Especially this time, during the month when she was in coma, he could not meditate at all, let alone concentrate on practicing.
Making elixirs.
During that month, anxiety, anger, and uneasiness filled his mind all the time, which even surprised him.
Why is this happening? Do I really have a crush on this little girl? What about Baihua? Where should I put her? What should I do? In order to prevent these two girls from being harmed?
In Ming Zhiyuan's mind, he still had the concept of marriage from his previous life, so he had the embarrassment that if he accepted this little girl, he would not be able to explain to Baihua.
Yu Yizhi also told him about this matter in private. This old guy had married countless wives and concubines in his life, so he naturally didn't think it was a problem. He also comforted him by saying that Baihua was from a royal family and was used to such things.
, and won’t have any other thoughts about him just because he has an extra girl.
However, Ming Zhiyuan has never been able to pass this test, but Lan Yujun doesn't care. She thinks that she wants to marry Ming Zhiyuan. It is natural and reasonable. No matter how many wives Ming Zhiyuan has, she must be one of them. Her father
Even if they have three wives and four concubines, she naturally doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.
Seeing Ming Zhiyuan push and dodge like this every time, and ignore him every time he talks about it, the little girl feels aggrieved. However, she has always been optimistic and open-minded. Although she feels uncomfortable in her heart, she puts it aside after a while.
Then he started to quarrel with Ming Zhiyuan again.
