Hearing this question, Tang Zhao's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Jinwu.
This is related to Yunzhou’s next step.
The Golden Crow was silent for a moment and said: "It's not bad to be underground. I'm used to staying there, and my life is very peaceful. And... I can't move either."
Marquis Gao Yuan asked: "But the power is restricted?"
The Golden Crow examined Gao Yuanhou and did not answer directly. Obviously, it and Gao Yuanhou did not face Tang Zhao's innate trust. He only said: "If you can become one with destruction this time, you can come and go freely. There’s room to stay or come out.”
Marquis Gao Yuan nodded, and she understood what the Golden Crow meant: Although it was quite comfortable to stay underground, it did not object to leaving the ground. It's just that I can't move now for special reasons. Only by successfully mastering the power of the Golden Crow in that part of the Gangliang Mountain can we talk about leaving.
Now that the enemy is facing us, this matter is of long-term importance, so we can postpone the discussion for now.
All said and done, I still want to go to Zhugliang Mountain.
Jinwu said again: "Over the years, the ground in Yunzhou has been roasted, and there is a big hole. In the past, it was my strength that supported me. If I really want to leave, the ground in Yunzhou will collapse. You'd better have Prepare."
Marquis Gao Yuan looked serious and frowned involuntarily.
After Tang Zhao heard this, he couldn't help but thought of something.
The three of them discussed some more details about going to the two mountains, and Jinwu used the formation again to leave the place. He came quietly and left quietly. Only three people in total knew about it, and the people in the camp didn't know that Lord Jinwu, whom they had spent many days preparing to deal with, had just fought back and forth in front of them.
Marquis Gao Yuan didn't let out a sigh of relief until he watched the Golden Crow disappear. He patted Tang Zhao gently and said, "Ah Zhao, I owe you a lot. If it weren't for you, there would be no hope for the Yunzhou catastrophe this time. With you, it's really impossible." The blessing of Yunzhou is even the blessing of the world and the world."
Let’s not talk about the blessings, the misfortunes haven’t gone away yet.
Even now, there is only hope of overcoming the disaster.
Whether they can survive the catastrophe, no one from Gaoyuanhou to Jinwu is sure.
So Gao Yuanhou first called Zhang Rong to discuss, and then set off back to Yunzhou, while Tang Zhao stayed at the Yunzhou base for the time being and still presided over the Chaoyang base.
It stands to reason that the plan to contact the Golden Crow has come to fruition, and the mission of Chaoyang Base should come to an end, but isn't this a new mission?
Attacking the two mountains also requires Chaoyang Base.
Because this attack plan is mainly based on small teams rushing in to receive large-scale teleportations, the base camp does not need to be stationed near Guliang Mountain. If the team successfully arranges the teleportation formation, it only needs to gather the large forces together to be able to land directly.
It just so happened that the Chaoyang Base was completely closed and the area was not small. Xue Xianyun was here with his disciples so that he could build a large formation that encompassed the entire base. When the time came, he would be summoned to move there together with his people and the camp.
The team in front of them happened to be retained as the backbone. Not only were there many swordsmen in the camp, but most of them used light and fire as their sword elephants. These were perfect for dealing with Meng Liangshan.
But now that Tang Zhao, the leader of Chaoyang Base, is going to Zuliang Mountain, he can no longer take care of things in the rear camp. Someone needs to be in charge of the camp from behind.
Marquis Gao Yuan captured a swordsman who had no work yet and knew the inside story to fill his place. Yes, he was tortured to the extreme.
Tang Zhao was very happy to be able to offload the heavy responsibility to Xing Ji. Even if he gradually became competent as a leader, it was still very hard to bear the responsibility of running the base with hundreds of people.
He quickly handed over the affairs at hand and concentrated on preparing to go to Zhuangshan Mountain.
A lot of preparation work.
First, he connected the channels to enter the Gangliang Mountain.
Although he was prepared for his dishonorable identity, he was still surprised when he got the information.
He also thought that entering Gangliang Mountain was just for business and that he had to pretend to be a human trafficker or something like that to get in, but it turned out that was not the case.
Of course there is a connection.
This time the identity was actually an insider. A large manor owner in Gangliang Mountain summoned his disciples from outside to return to the mountain to prepare for the triennial "Deep Shadow Meeting" in Gangliang Mountain to be held next month.
Tang Zhao didn't care about the "Gathering of Deep Shadows" at first, but was surprised at first: There is still a manor owner in Guliang Mountain?
Fortunately, the following information is directly marked. Not only does it exist, but it is basically a manor-dominated system in Guliang Mountain. Except for Geng Liang, who controls everything like a god in Geng Liang Mountain, there is no unified manager in Geng Liang Mountain, only large and small manor owners.
These manor owners are all swordsmen or above. Depending on their strength, they encircle a piece of land, build a manor, and then raise many slaves, also known as sword slaves.
In the territory, the owner of the manor is more powerful than the emperor, and he can be said to be the absolute master. And in that kind of place, his subordinates are all slaves. You can imagine how cruel it is. Coupled with all kinds of sword cleaning, the elimination rate of sword slaves is astonishingly high. Children are continuously sent in every year, but the supply still exceeds the demand.
This is still an ordinary sword slave, relatively easy to find. And those top-notch high-level sword slaves who can be used to cleanse swords and even have a chance to become swordsmen are rarely seen at all. Even if there are some caught outside, they will be sold at a high price and will not be easily sold to a manor owner. Instead, they will take them to the "Deep Shadow Society" to find a buyer.
The Meeting of Deep Shadow is a high-end trade fair. Not only will high-level slaves be traded, but the manor owners will also sell valuable goods from their own manors. There will also be some foreign "distinguished guests" who will reach long-term cooperation with the manor owners at the meeting. It has been in and out many times during the year, which can be said to be a rare connection between the extremely closed Mengliang Mountain and the outside world.
This kind of conference is indeed a good opportunity. Tang Zhao even thought that the turtle bandits might have chosen this time to cause trouble. After all, according to the intelligence collected from inside sources, most of the manor owners showed no signs of being controlled by the turtle bandits. The turtle bandits can't call the shots in a place like that, so they must find opportunities to break in.
It is not too difficult to sneak into the Deep Shadow Society. Not only does Tongming Hall have channels, but Yunzhou also has channels. It is easier to contact the manor owner by pretending to be a rich and distinguished guest.
But this time there’s an opportunity with higher risks but bigger rewards.
It was this manor owner who had his own informant from the Land Prosecution Department in his manor, and inside information was sent back in a timely manner.
In fact, the manor owner died suddenly.
The disciple he recalled was actually his illegitimate son, the heir to the manor.
Because Gangliang Mountain is a world where the weak can prey on the strong. If a manor owner dies and there is no strong heir, the manor will be eaten up in an instant. Therefore, the confidants of the manor owner who are left behind do not dare to let others know about it. They can only make preparations. Call the heir back in the name of the Deep Shadow Society.
The tip said that according to the route, the man should be passing through Yunzhou. If he could be intercepted, he could use his identity to enter Jiliang Mountain and directly control a large manor. When the time comes, we will be the host instead of the guest in Shenying, making things a hundred times more convenient.
This tip actually came out a month ago. It was not prepared for Tang Zhao. It was just because Bai Yujing's alliance was concerned about the two mountains and paid more attention to the intelligence, but he had not yet decided whether to take action.
Coincidentally, the security in Yunzhou became increasingly tight, making it difficult for outsiders to enter and exit, so they happened to intercept the heir at the border of Liangzhou.
Since I intercepted it, it would be rude not to use it.
Within a few days, this person's information was stripped out and sent to Tang Zhao.
"Jian Chenglong, twenty-eight years old. The illegitimate son of Wu Cang of Changfa Manor in Kongliang Mountain. He was sent to the outside world to study at a young age, and he reached the realm of swordsman. His sword is the Nether Fire Sword... at least the word "fire" is attached to it."
If the opponent's sword elephant is something that cannot be hit with eight poles, Tang Zhao may not be suitable for impersonation. It is better to choose a similar sword elephant from the inspection department, and Tang Zhao can be his deputy. But since it is Nether Fire, Tang Zhao can still barely get involved, especially since his sword is like sunshine and is good at camouflage. It can adjust the color and pretend to be Nether Fire...
"Wait, his sword elephant is a ghost fox?"
Tang Zhao touched his head and looked at the pictures - his improved magic weapon can now directly leave real light and shadow, and there is no need to draw pictures that even his parents can't see. Therefore, we can intuitively see what the man and the sword look like.
There is nothing much to say about the person. He looks like an ordinary young man in his twenties or seventies. He is dressed in fancy clothes and looks very wealthy. It is said that he has a flamboyant temper. Even though he returned to the mountain secretly, he did not keep a low profile, so he was arrested. He's quite decent-looking, and his temperament doesn't tell you that he's from Zongliangshan. He's actually a bit... bookish? The role is not difficult.
In fact, it doesn't matter even if the performance is a little bit worse. The young owner of the village has lost contact with most people in the mountain since he was sent out of the mountain at the age of ten. He only has an old servant sent by the mountain to bring him up since he was a child. Moreover, this old servant also died recently, and the others The waiters were all found from outside the mountain, and even the manor owner's confidants didn't recognize him. If he hadn't caught someone, he could have gotten away with just sending someone of about the same age with better luck.
But his sword elephant looks really...familiar.
A black fox with a sinister look on his body. Of course, it may be because the hair is not fluffy enough and it is not as cute as the white fox.
It's such a coincidence, it would be a waste if we don't arrange it. Originally, Yunzhou was going to cooperate with Bai Yujing, and the first batch of pioneers would also leave a spot for Bai Yujing to show their sincerity in cooperation.
Even if a large force needs to be mobilized to fight, Gao Yuanhou would tend to use Bai Yujing's name to do so. The two mountains are not in Yunzhou, but deep in Liangzhou, close to Hudi, and too far away from Yunzhou. Not to mention being involved with all forces, it is really a hot potato. Even for the safety of Yunzhou, it would be too eye-catching to suddenly go on an expedition as a prince of a state.
It would be fine if it was in the name of the ancient and mysterious Bai Yujing. When the Baiyujing people find the Ruyi Sword, if they can awaken the sword immortal and make the Yunshang Immortal City rise above the Gangliang Mountains, who in the world would dare to say "no"?
This is the biggest benefit of cooperating with Bai Yujing.
"He has an old servant who came out from the Gangliang Mountain to pick him up this time. This old servant is the key point. We need to find someone with good acting skills, alertness and experience to avoid any flaws. There are many such talents in Yunzhou, Jing'an Secretary A lot, right? I just asked Junhou to find me an experienced deputy, who should be able to play him."
"It doesn't matter whether you have male or female servants around you. You can even bring as many as you like. But it's better to be more refined than expensive. Three or four will be fine."
"I also brought... two pairs of boys and girls? Are they his high-level sword slaves, preparing to show their faces in the Deep Shadow Society? They are indeed the bad ones who came out of Zongliang Mountain, and they were born bad. After so many years of studying and reading, It’s in the dog’s stomach! This item is exempted!”
Tang Zhao read the information carefully, had a plan in mind, and began to code people.
