"Both internally and externally. Internally, I really didn't expect it to be a success at once. Externally, I didn't expect it to be safe until now."
"I mean, I originally thought there would be a commotion at the last moment of sword making." Tang Zhao said seriously.
Xing Ji smiled and said: "Interesting. At this time, you are not sure yet. You have been fully prepared. Everything is sealed inside and outside, how can it not be said to be foolproof? Although it is just a sword-making meeting at Zhuoyu Villa, I Seeing order is much better than the rumored ups and downs in the sword-making conference that made Long Yuan stumble upon his debut."
Tang Zhao looked around and saw that Ju Tianxuan had indeed left, and no other friends who had participated in the sword-making conference could hear him. He smiled and said, "Actually, we did learn from Fuhui's lessons. But compared to what Fuhui has faced, In this situation, we took too much advantage. There are several people who communicated with the news. Not to mention there are internal agents. Because we have too much information, we can’t help but seek perfection and blame, and we can’t wait to get rid of it once and for all.”
Indeed, compared to Long Yuan who just knew that his enemy was coming, Tang Zhao had a lot of first-hand information here. Long before the Fuhui, he had received news from Second Senior Brother Xu Zhongnan, from Madam Huarong, and from Senior Brother Deng's family to warn him. At that time, he had already received the news that the turtle bandits were coming.
At that time, he still cast a dark eye on the turtle bandits, but after a trip to Kungang, he knew better. He could see how ferocious, strange, and powerful the turtle bandits were. Although the two battles between Kungang and Yunzhou were successful, he did not despise Tang Zhao because of this. Who was Tang Zhao's teammate at that time? That time in Kungang, even if a powerful force like Long Yuan joined forces with someone as noble as the Prince of Snow Mountain, their stomachs were almost turned upside down, and they could only be calmed down by the powerful power of the Kun Sword. In Zhaocheng, Zhang Rong helped him calculate the time of the month, and Mai Shiyu's sword was just right to turn the tide, and he even had a guard shoot him with his own hands to escape the danger. Therefore, Tang Zhao had experienced a lot and did not look down upon the turtle bandits at all. Instead, he became more vigilant. At that time, I was determined that I was not strong enough and had to hire foreign aid.

Later, Tang Zhao and Zhuoyu Villa still had good luck, and met a senior undercover agent. Or you can't call him an undercover agent. He is in Cao's camp and his heart is in Han. It was an old friend of Tang Zhao, "General Pei" Pei Shoujing.
After the battle with the white-haired swordsman, Xing Ji sent Pei Shoujing away. At that time, in order to prevent the sword wielder from disturbing the situation, she was sent far away. At that time, he thought that although this girl was young, she had the strength to stand by him, and she was not stupid. She could clearly recognize the east, west and north. He expected that there would be no accident at a distance of several hundred miles. But then something unexpected happened, and Pei Shoujing disappeared. Xingji felt a little guilty and sent people to look for him around Heyang County, but there was still no news.
Unexpectedly, after several years of separation, Pei Shoujing would join the turtle bandits and reach a high status.
Pei Shoujing didn't mention how she got into the Turtle Bandits, but her talent was very good and it wouldn't be surprising if she stood out wherever she went. It's just that Pei Shoujing also showed contradictions in the letter. One of the stories was that a high-ranking person in the turtle bandits was kind to her, and she was not completely unimpressed. Secondly, she did not join the turtle bandits voluntarily, and she did not feel that reviving the old dynasty was a mission with a bright future or a mission worth dedicating herself to. Moreover, she has a family and a career. Once the identity of the Pei family daughter is discovered by the court, the consequences will be disastrous. For the sake of the family and herself, she still wants to get out.
Notifying Tang Zhao of the information was partly out of concern for an old friend, and partly also to seek cooperation. She wanted a chance to escape from the turtle bandits completely. Tang Zhao would not refuse such a win-win situation, and based on her intelligence, he made a series of defensive counterattack plans for the Sword Making Conference.
The core of the plan is to divide and conquer.
It is known that the turtle bandits have to attack from at least three directions, including breaking through from the outside, sneaking in with traitors, and sneaking in through secret passages. Regardless of the strength of these three groups, it would be very difficult to merge together. Zhuoyu Villa was too small to fight on two fronts, so Tang Zhao did not allow them to merge in the first place.
Among them, Shi Chunqing had to go to Zhuoyu Villa, and Tang Zhao couldn't control it. There is no way, how many years has he only stayed in the mountain? How many years did Shi Chunqing stay? Shi Chunqing wanted to find a way to sneak up the mountain for a sneak attack. They certainly couldn't stop him and could only wait.
Then they will not be allowed to go up the mountain for the remaining few steps. It’s easy for those outside to climb snow-capped mountains. How can snow-capped mountains be so easy to climb? The devastation of an avalanche is no less than that of Mount Tai, which cannot be resisted by humans. If a slight natural disaster is triggered, most people will be buried in the barren mountains. Tang Zhao also had benevolent thoughts and did not kill them all. He only used cranes, owls and other magic weapons with "unrequested" to lead people astray in the mountains, and then used signs to warn and persuade them to go down the mountain. Those who are stubborn have nothing to say, and they will become one with the snowy mountains as soon as they are sent away.
As for the traitor, it was easy to say that with a leader like Pei Shoujing directly collaborating with the enemy, how could it not be possible? However, what needs to be considered is for Pei Shoujing to make a perfect exit, so none of the people she brought can leave. If one leaves, it will be considered a failure. Therefore, it is best to have a closed location for the decisive battle so that the meat can rot in the pot.
To separate from Shi Chunqing and to be closed off, Tang Zhao thought about it for a long time and came up with a perfect stage.
Even the world he saw when he first entered Xumi Sword when he was young.
The world in the jar, with its mountains and water, seems like a real world, but it is also fake. It is separated from the outside world by a thick wall of the jar.
At first, Tang Zhao wanted to build a world by himself using lotus ponds and jars, but that was a really difficult method. He had to make swords and lay out the overall situation, so he couldn't do it at all. Later, he closed his eyes and his heart - no way, no way, he couldn't stop serving.
Give me a shake!
Anyway, you have to look for foreign aid from the beginning. If you look for one, you are looking for it. What is the difference if you look for ten more? The only problem is that I don’t know that many people.
For this purpose, Tang Zhao prepared paper and pen, opened his memory, and started writing like flying. Find whatever you can find. Mr. Xing calls you Mr. Xing, why don’t you come? Mr. Ping, please call me Mr. Ping. You have to come over, right? Teacher Si...Tang Zhao also wrote a letter, but like Mai Shiyu, he is a serious official, and it is difficult to escape from the responsibilities. He is not as idle at home as Xingji, he can go anywhere.
As for the Black Widow, Mrs. Huarong, Wei Changle, Feng Zhilie, and Yun Xiyan, Tang Zhao invited them all.
Facts have proved that Tang Zhao's popularity is good. One is because they did have a friendship at the beginning, and the other is that there is no need to hide it. Tang Zhao is now successful in his studies and is looking forward to making swords. His talent and status show that he has a bright future and is very worthy of attention. Favors come and go, so why not help if you can?
In this way, Tang Zhao successfully attracted a large number of foreign aids he wanted to find, the most important ones being Xing Ji and Ping Jiangqiu.
Not to mention Xing Ji, after Tang Zhao retreated, he was almost the actual host of the guesthouse and Chuncheng in addition to Zhuoyu Villa. He moved around and worked overtime day and night. He was hard-working... without complaint. Ping Jiangqiu also gave Tang Zhao a great surprise.
In Tang Zhao's original impression, although the world in the jar was nice, it was a dead place, lifeless and without even fresh fruits. It was impossible to build a living world in jars alone, and it also needed to be covered by a lotus pond. However, after several years of absence, Ping Jiangqiu has made great progress - his world can actually accommodate living creatures.
Nowadays, grass and trees can grow on the mountains in the jar, weeds can grow on the waterside, fish swim in the pond, and birds fly on the trees. This is the real Sumeru world. Staying in such a world for several decades will probably not be that difficult.
Tang Zhao was curious about how Ping Jiangqiu had changed so much just a few years after he came out. Ping Jiangqiu's face was full of mystery, and he only said: "I have found a new sword intention. If the two swords are combined, what's the point? When the old man finds the third sword intention, and it becomes a tripod, he can build his own magical power and chase it. It’s reached the realm of Sword Immortal.”
Tang Zhao didn't understand much, but he thought of the white-haired swordsman. His Pure Yang Sword's sword intention is to seal, and it only seals things related to life. Wouldn't it complement Heping Jiang Qiu? Back then, that man deliberately kidnapped Ping Jiangqiu's jar, probably to strengthen himself and supplement his sword power. Could it be that in the end, the hunter and prey were exchanged, which gave Ping Jiangqiu an advantage?
Ping Jiangqiu didn't explain, and Tang Zhao didn't have time to ask. Anyway, he would definitely touch the Xumi Sword again by then, wouldn't he understand everything?
With the help of Ping Jiangqiu and Xing Ji, Tang Zhao's layout is no longer narrow-minded. He invited all the guests with invitations to go up to Runcao Ferry, and then Jiang Shenyi picked them up. They said they were going up the mountain, but in fact they were stuffing them directly into the jar. The wind beads that lead people up the mountain have a hypnotic effect. They fall asleep as soon as they enter. When they wake up and see the guest house, how can they suspect that this is not Zhuoyu Villa?
In this way, anyone who goes up the mountain through an invitation, regardless of whether it is true or false, will not be able to stay at Zhuoyu Villa, let alone meet up with Shi Chunqing.
As for this jar, it is placed next to Xingji. Xingji didn't go to Zhuoyu Villa, and stayed in Jichun City to take over Gui Tuo Mo - I won't mention how he took over. Anyway, with the cooperation of the local procuratorate, what resistance can an organization like Gui Tuo Mo have?
In this way, Xingji pretended to be a scar-faced man to seduce people up the mountain, and at the same time chased away the people running around in the guesthouse, so he was busy at both ends. It's difficult to deal with the different charlatans in the ghost house, but it's also not easy to greet the various people who discovered the "jar wall" in the guest house. After all, the world in the jar is limited, and if you run a little further, you may "hit a wall." Of course, those who have ill intentions towards these people must be arrested, and those guests who are simply bored must also be persuaded to leave. Xing Ji felt it was really troublesome, so he took the opportunity to form a four-person team including Yun Xiyan and manage them separately, so that he could be free to deal with matters in Chuncheng.
Feng Zhilie in this team had known the inside story for a long time, and Yun Xiyan had always been kept in the dark. It was only when Xingji took her out of the jar that he suddenly realized that Wang Fei had doubts about the jar world, but he had always kept it secret. Among these people, Xing Ji still likes Yun Xiyan the most.
Because this move "Great Shift of the Universe" was done right from the beginning and exceeded the enemy's imagination, things went very smoothly. No matter who climbed the snow mountain, life or death, they were not able to climb the mountain. The mountain climbing base camp built outside the valley was also kicked down by Mrs. Huarong and her adopted sons. The tycoons in Jichun City forgot everything. The turtle bandits in the guest house were all hunted down by a unified net inside and outside. No matter how deliberate the turtle bandits were, they never threatened Zhuoyu Villa in any moment.
It can be said that Zhuoyu Villa had already succeeded before the sword was successfully cast.
Xing Ji said: "The plan has been successful, do you still have worries?"
Tang Zhao sighed: "Yes, because there is still a clear enemy that has not appeared."
