All the lights of Longshan fell into the eyes of Dugu Xuezheng on the top of Xiangshan.
"well!"
Dugu Xuezheng let out a long sigh, and things turned out as he expected.
He sent Xu Tingyang and Li Honglong, the two people he thought had the most problems, but something went wrong.
After a night of hard thinking, he finally figured it out.
It is absolutely impossible for the Duke of Shu to betray the imperial court openly now.
All this is like a game between two masters.
And I am just a small chess piece on this chessboard.
Maybe it’s still an abandoned child!
After figuring all this out, before dawn, he used his most loyal men to contact a group of people.
These people are now gathered in the Luoshen Villa Ancestral Hall.
Dugu Zhengxuan, the eldest grandson of Dugu Xuezheng, was standing at the front of this group of people.
Seeing Dugu Xuezheng returning, the younger generation, whose highest age was only in their early thirties, had puzzled eyes.
"grandfather!"
When Dugu Zhengxuan saw his grandfather coming back, he couldn't help but ask about the doubts in his heart.
"You are all my hope for Dugu Xuezheng."
Dugu Xuezheng ignored Dugu Zhengxuan. Instead, he looked at the more than 40 young people present and said with sincere expressions:
"I hurt everyone!"
Everyone looked shocked, looking at me and you, not knowing what was going on.
"grandfather…"
Dugu Zhengxuan's expression also changed. Just as he was about to speak, Dugu Xuezheng waved his hand to stop him.
"I won't say much today. We don't have much time. Let's get down to business. There are many things you will naturally know in the future."
Dugu Xuezheng immediately said something to everyone, and everyone's expressions became a little unbelievable.
They couldn't believe that they were going to be the ones running away!
"This place is the ancestral hall of Luoshen Villa. There is a secret passage in this ancestral hall that directly connects to the foot of Xiangshan Mountain.
I have prepared it for you. The resources for your future practice are all in the package at the back, and there are also false identities for you to live anonymously in the future.
Of course, your parents and I have also prepared some resources for you outside, which are all written on the notes inside the baggage.
You are our future, and I hope that one day in the future you can pursue your own path, instead of following a bunch of old guys like us and embarking on this wrong path. "
Before Dugu Xuezheng finished speaking, someone wanted to speak, but was held back by the person next to him.
These young people looked into the distance along a person's finger, only to find that their parents were watching from a distance.
"why why?"
Dugu Zhengxuan was a little confused and wanted to ask questions.
As a result, Dugu Xuezheng took two steps forward and patted Dugu Zhengxuan on the shoulder with one hand.
"You win or lose, I can only say you win or lose!"
Don't think about revenge for us old guys.
Revenge is the most terrifying thing in the world.
You are their future leader, and I hope you can continue to live with them. "
Dugu Zhengxuan couldn't understand what his grandfather was saying at this moment!
"I wrote everything in a letter home and left it to you.
You can take your time and watch on the way down the mountain, but now it’s really too late. "
After saying this, Dugu Xuezheng led the group of young people to the back of the ancestral hall.
He opened a secret passage and urged everyone to go inside.
Everyone was still confused by Monk Zhang Er.
However, those with sharp ears have already heard the sound of swords and soldiers clashing from the direction of the ancestral hall in front.
The group of Jianghu people below have already rushed to the top of Xiangshan Mountain?
Some people thought so, while others had a look of fear on their faces!
Dugu Xuezheng pressed Dugu Zhengxuan's shoulders to prevent the latter from resisting.
"Your father has lost his life in this incident. I hope you can survive, because you are my only bloodline."
Dugu Zhengxuan was unable to move or speak under his grandfather's suppression.
Finally, Dugu Xuezheng pressed Dugu Zhengxuan into the secret passage and closed the secret passage himself.
Across a stone wall, Dugu Xuezheng's voice came slowly,
"For the next ten years, just hibernate and survive. After ten years, let's talk about other things!
Remember, remember! "
Dugu Zhengxuan and others were sent to the secret passage in a daze, and arrived at the foot of Elephant Mountain in a daze.
Everyone also opened the envelopes in their respective bags in this secret passage.
Basically it was given to them by their respective elders.
Through these letters, they also learned the cause of this emergency.
They lost!
The enemy has attacked Xiangshan!
The elders headed by Dugu Xuezheng did not even have the confidence to win, so they sent their descendants away.
And they also discovered a connection with each other.
They are the most loyal and most interested people in Dugu Xuezheng's lineage.
And there is no one from the four major families and the nine major forces!
Dugu Zhengxuan suddenly understood something.
The middle-aged people did not stay there for too long and left with their own determination.
People in the world have always been neat and tidy.
The parents definitely had their reasons for sending them away.
It is definitely a fate they cannot contend with.
So they left without hesitation.
Hesitation will only make everything their fathers have done in vain.
At this time, on the top of Xiangshan Mountain, outside the Luoshen Mountain Villa Ancestral Hall.
Dugu Xuezheng stands here with the core group of people in his lineage.
Opposite them was a large group of people headed by several heads of the four major families.
Before last night, they were still standing next to Dugu Xuezheng.
One night later, they stood on the opposite side of Dugu Xuezheng.
Looking at the group of people in front of him, Dugu Xuezheng didn't feel much resentment in his heart.
On the contrary, it is a kind of freedom and ease.
"Fortunately, you chose Dugu Shidao. This way, at least you won't die!"
The heads of the Shangpin family had complicated expressions on their faces.
This is not a matter of who is right or wrong.
It's just a matter of camp and position.
"But I only have one request. I don't want to be at war with you. Get out of the way and we will go find trouble for those bastards who dare to attack me at Luoshen Villa and my Dugu family!"
The heads of the four major families glanced at each other, and then silently moved out of the way.
Dugu Xuezheng immediately led everyone to rush to the mountainside of Xiangshan Mountain. On the mountainside, he met Jianghu people who were about to rush up the mountain.
Loose cultivators in the world!
The difference in numbers between the two sides is huge.
There are only dozens of people behind Dugu Xuezheng.
But there were hundreds of people in front of him!
But there is no high-grade Dachengjing!
The group of high-grade Dachengjing who had led the casual cultivators in the martial arts world to attack Xiangshan these days could not see any of them at this time.
Dugu Xue was gritting his teeth, with anger in his eyes!
A moment later, he single-handedly killed the group of Jianghu people, and behind the group of Jianghu people, an old man in sackcloth looked gloomily at Dugu Xuezheng, who was fighting his way out of the encirclement.
"City Lord, I will prepare the materials you want for you!"
Letting out bursts of weird laughter, the old man rushed towards Dugu Xuezheng!
A strong roar erupted as soon as the two of them fought.
Half a day later, an old man in black robes appeared at the foot of Elephant Mountain, and with him were the King of Death Vajra, the head of the Eight Vajras of the Kunli Sect, the Mountain God, the head of the Five Elements Sword, and others.
All of them are top masters of the high-grade Dacheng realm!
"This is all over. Thank you for your hard work. The benefits promised to you will be given to you later!"
After the old man in black robe finished speaking, everyone left after saying a few words.
Although everyone had doubts in their hearts, no one asked.
After everyone left, an old man in sackcloth came to the side of the old man in black robe.
"Brother Sikong, thank you for your hard work. How is your injury?"
The old man in black asked calmly, and the old man in linen replied with a satisfied smile:
"The Dugu family's skills are very strong. I haven't felt this good for a long time! The injury is not a problem. If there are two blood food pills given by the city lord, the injury will be recovered quickly!"
The old man in black nodded, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, and handed it to the old man in linen.
"I only have one Blood Food Pill here. When I go back, I will ask my senior brother for another one!"
"Thank you Hei Ba!"
The old man in sackcloth chuckled and did not take out the elixir. Instead, he swallowed the porcelain bottle whole into his mouth and chewed it vigorously.
That sound sounded creepy.
As the crowd of people who attacked Xiangshan retreated, two more people appeared at the foot of Xiangshan. As they slowly climbed up the mountain, more and more people gathered around them.
Fan Zhijing, the head of Qikushan [Fan Family], never showed up during the catastrophe at Luoshen Villa. The person on Xiangshan Mountain was his younger brother.
And with the appearance of these two people, Fan Zhijing finally appeared.
Other important figures from the nine major forces in Luoshen Villa also appeared behind these two people.
When they reached the Luoshen Mountain Villa Ancestral Hall on the top of the mountain, dozens of people were already following behind them. These people were all famous figures in the world.
On the top of the mountain, two of the four major families, Che Xilu from the Lieshi Mountain [Che Family], Sima Qingkong from the Shishi Mountain [Sima Family], and other powerful people from Luoshen Villa are also here.
Li Honglong, the master of the Craftsman Sect, also appeared here and was at the forefront.
After the two people stood still, everyone standing in front of them and behind them saluted respectfully and said in unison:
"Congratulations to the owner of the village to return to the village!"
Dugu Shidao stood with his hands behind his hands, and a grandmaster-level artistic conception spread out, and the bodies of the more than ten high-grade Dacheng-level warriors present were shaken.
This is Grandmaster Daoyun!
Their Luoshen Villa finally has a master-level owner!
Among the top forces in the world, Luoshen Villa finally rises!
"In the next three months, the village will be closed and rectified!"
Dugu Shidao finally took the position of the owner of Luoshen Villa, and the first order he gave was to seal the mountain and the village.
At this time, Liu Xin and others had returned to Taiyuan City. After arriving in Taiyuan City, Liu Xin received first-hand news from the covert investigation team.
The army of the Duke of Shu has retreated!
Soon he received the second and third news, Luoshen Villa Dugu Shidao returned, Luoshen Villa was closed for three months!
The imperial court's 100,000-strong army feinted a shot and turned around to attack the 800-mile swamp. The Liangshan River, which had been a major problem for the Zhengyang imperial court for decades, was broken in two days!
The so-called 800,000 water bandits are actually 800,000 poor people. They are just 25 rivers and lakes forces holding these poor people hostage. In the end, they are still a group of water bandits.
Although the total number of water bandits was large, more than 40,000, they were basically like a mantis under the attack of the imperial court.
After being broken, a total of one hundred and eight people on the so-called Liangshanshuibo Juyi Hall Hero List were captured alive, thirty-nine of them were killed, and the rest were all killed in battle!
A group of leaders including Zhongli Baozhong from Tiangang Star, Yu Kong from Tianji Star, and Luo Sheng from Tianxiong Star were all captured alive and escorted to the imperial capital soon.
Only Tian Kuixing, the most powerful person in Liang Shan Shui Bo, was missing. The water bandits who were captured in Liang Shan Shui Bo said that Tian Kuixing had disappeared a few months earlier.
The imperial court issued a sea arrest document. Unfortunately, the real name of Tian Kuixing, the leader of Liangshan, was ominous, and the outside world knew little about him.
Zhongli Baozhong and Yu Kong, who knew him well, also kept silent.
After two days of repairs in Taiyuan City, Liu Xin received two letters. One letter came from the imperial capital.
"Six Niang is actually in the imperial capital. He arrived as soon as I left. What a twist of fate!"
Liu Xin sighed and opened Siniang Tan Bentai's reply.
The letter contains some of his knowledge about bronze sacrificial vessels, but most of them are historical records.
Bentai said in the letter that he would continue to study the situation in more detail.
He also asked Liu Xin to prepare a detailed painting of a bronze dagger and send it to him so that he could study it.
Liu Xin immediately asked Liulang to hand over the bronze dagger.
In the past two days, if Dugu Naruto hadn't been there, Liulang and Dugu Yueyue might have gotten tired of being together.
God knows the two of them had met several times when they were young, but why did they fall in love so deeply that they went in both directions?
Dugu Yueyue is such a strong person, but she is a bit like Xiaojiabiyu in front of Liulang.
Dugu Naruto watched it for two days, and finally sighed and said that he had to go out to do errands.
He couldn't bear to see the children grow up.
What's more, he is not Dugu Yueyue's father. As an uncle, he can only watch over her.
Most of them really can't do anything.
Liulang and Dugu Yueyue discussed it and decided to set off with Liu Xin.
Xiao Qi has been discussing with Ma Dakui outside the city in the past few days to form a [bandit association].
Contact bandits from all over the world to form an alliance.
Xiao Qi really regards banditry as a career.
They even wanted to create a gimmick to attract bandits from all walks of life.
Liu Xin also gave them ideas, and the plan that was finally adopted was the 'Bandit King' plan.
Through the secret investigation team, news was spread all over the world, saying that there was a treasure from the 'bandit king' buried somewhere in the South China Sea. Of course, the treasure was composed of the real gold that bandits loved to see most!
This treasure cannot be used with top techniques or the like, as it will only attract countless casual cultivators and small and medium-sized forces.
And only gold is what really appeals to the bandits.
What the bandits want is to survive, not to become stronger.
In addition to gold, they also spread the news that there is a geographical map of mountains and rivers in the world, which can help bandits find the most suitable mountain tops.
This is a bit metaphysical, and people who are not here would not be interested in this kind of thing.
The last thing is the impact of this matter.
If it were a time when the world was at peace, doing this kind of thing would definitely be quickly suppressed by the court.
But now the situation in the world is strange. The imperial court has just cleared the Liangshan River, and something happened with the Duke of Shu.
As for the following group of small bandits fighting for some small gold, it is estimated that the court will not pay too much attention to it.
This also gave Xiaoqi an opportunity to develop.
With the endorsement of the covert investigation team, Xiao Qi's plan was soon put into motion.
The land of the South China Sea is also known as the "Holy Land of Bandits" in publicity, with countless treasures waiting to be discovered.
Although he didn't know the final effect, this move was better than nothing. Liu Xin just used this matter to test the waters of the South China Sea.
Next, he will go to the South China Sea to carry out his mission as a royal guard.
But before that, he still needed to make a detour.
He sent a reply with a portrait of a bronze dagger to Siniang Tan Bentai in the imperial capital, and Liu Xin sent another letter to Wuchang City, the governor of Huguang.
That's where the ghost doctor is, and Xu Cheng's injuries are already being treated.
But in return, the ghost doctor wrote that there was something Liu Xin needed to do for him.
Anyway, it was on his way, so Liu Xin decided to go there first and get this done.
Dugu Naruto came back after a day out. As soon as he came back, he and Liu Xin were locked in a room and they didn't know what they discussed.
But after Liu Xin came out, his face was a little solemn.
Dugu Naruto did not leave with Liu Xin and others.
Xiao Qi and Fang Zihang took the first step, and together with Ma Dakui, they took Xiao Qi's brothers on the road to the South China Sea.
Liu Xin, Liu Lang and Dugu Yueyue set off the next day.
At the gate of Taiyuan City, Dugu Yueyue met an acquaintance.
Fan Sisi.
Luoshen Villa was closed, but Fan Sisi still came out. Liu Xin knew that this might have been arranged by the Dugu Shidao.
At this time, in the rivers and lakes, not only in the rivers and lakes, Dugu Shidao was promoted to Grandmaster and took charge of Luoshen Villa. The closing of Luoshen Villa in March was like a hurricane sweeping across the country.
The entire world will be shaken, and even the imperial court will be affected!
Fan Sisi said a few words to Dugu Yueyue, and then decided to go on the road together.
Liu Xin naturally had no objection.
He also knew something about Fan Sisi, and the camp on the attribute panel was neutral, so Liu Xin was relatively reassured.
As for not letting Fan Sisi follow, Liu Xin knew that he couldn't do it.
If Fan Sisi is not allowed to go, Dugu Shidao will definitely arrange for someone else.
The first time I was polite, but the second time I didn't know what the situation was.
After all, it was his junior brother who abducted someone else's granddaughter, so Liu Xin could only blame him for giving in.
Just when Liu Xin and others left Taiyuan City and headed south.
Within the territory of Luoshen Villa in the Fengzhuang, Qiku Mountain.
Sun Long, dressed in a black cloak, Dugu Shidao and Fan Zhijing, the master of Qiku Mountain, stood in front of a huge copper furnace for refining weapons.
Then a half-naked burly man took out an embryo from the copper furnace and put it into the ice water.
Amidst the loud noise, smoke immediately rose into the sky, and a moment later the place was already shrouded in mist.
"Master Sun's weapon refining method is really... really powerful! I have never been able to raise the flame temperature to such a high level in my entire life of refining weapons! Master Sun, you are such a god!
Master, where did you recruit such a heavenly young man as Mr. Sun? "
Fan Zhijing used to be a taciturn person, but now he talks endlessly, which shows the shock in his heart.
As the mist dissipated, the giant man took the embryo out of the water, and the cooled embryo appeared in front of everyone, faintly revealing the color of bronze.
