The autumn breeze is getting cooler.

Although I am not afraid of the cold and heat, I still put on the big hat that Li Xuefeng bought from Huicuifang, which makes me look more like a Taoist.

For the first time, I told everyone about my previous cultivation at Mochizuki Mountain, and told them that when I came down the mountain, it had become a pure path, and they laughed back and forth.

They are not laughing at the story of my cultivation of immortals, but laughing at my title for Taoist priests.

For example, Tao Yaoyao held a mutton skewer in his hand, and asked while laughing: "Cultivating immortals is all Tao, why do you claim to be Taoist?"

I smiled and said, "The first word is a verb, that is, the meaning of saying, and the second is a name, which refers to the meaning of the truth, that is, the Tao I cultivate needs to be said, and how can others know that I am a cultivator?"

At this time, Er San didn't know how to pretend to understand and said: "What the second brother means is that his Tao is based on talking, not by practice." ”

Naturally, the crowd burst into laughter again.

After You Bingkun left, there was no news, and I didn't bother to think about Yulala's marriage contract, anyway, it was far away, what could she do to me?

And the life of Chaoyang Temple is very comfortable.

Except for going hunting with Chen Qinglong once, I have never been out of Taoyuan again, every day is to inspect the market, drink tea in a daze, and gather everyone to hold a barbecue meeting every night.

Every week, Li Xuefeng would take the mountain tribe to loot the orc villages, bringing back a pile of animal skins, animal meat and grain.

Yes, the orcs are also preparing food for the winter, but this year is different, because because of my plan and Chen Qinglong's plan, the orc villages in the Wolong Mountains have suffered a catastrophe.

Standing on the observation deck in front of Chaoyang Temple, I looked at the endless stream of carriages and horses on the official road from the direction of the pass to the direction of Taoyuan Town, as well as a team of orcs with their hands tied, still coming from the official road to the bazaar.

I couldn't help but sigh softly.

Li Xuefeng walked from behind, heard my sigh, and said, "What's the matter, I can't bear it?"

I know he's talking about the "preemptive" plan launched by Chen Qinglong two months ago.

Almost all of the light and dark thieves in the thirty-six towns of Qingfeng City participated in this plan, and I heard that the army of Qingfeng City also sent several teams, disguised as bandits, to launch an attack on the orcs of the Wolong Mountain Range.

In addition to looting the villages of the orcs and killing as many orcs as possible, the thieves and mountain people also hunted the beasts of the Wolong Mountains almost, and even the meat price of the Chaoyang Temple farmers' market dropped by thirty percent.

According to Chen Qinglong, this will not only make the Protoss lose a large amount of cannon fodder, but also allow the main force of the Protoss in the event of a military disaster, when the Orc army and the humanoid army on the grassland enter the Wolong Mountains, lose the support of the Orc Village, and play the role of clearing the wilderness from the side.

But I was vaguely worried, for no one could tell what the hungry beast would do.

Looking at the row of geese flying in the sky, I asked Li Xuefeng strangely: "Why are there geese in Taoyuan? Where do they fly?"

Li Xuefeng said with a smile: "The magic circle only blocks the three clans of the two realms of immortals and gods, but the animals do not block it. ”

"Oh", I said, "I'll go down and see." ”

The bazaar is very lively, and in the large livestock area, a large number of people gather on the inner and outer three floors.

As I walked past with Gilt in the company, people automatically moved out of the way.

When I entered the room, I realized that they were selling orc slaves.

"Hello Second Brother Xu, take a look, if you want something, we will give it away for free in Luofengpo. ”

A young mountaineer wearing a rough fur coat that he knew had been snatched from an orc and holding a horsewhip nodded to me.

Before I could speak, he turned back to the orc woman who was weeping with only two rings of leaves around her waist and chest.

Turning around, he said to me with a sneer: "Let Second Brother Xu laugh, these disgusting orcs don't understand the rules." ”

I waved my hand in disgust, and was about to turn around and go out, when I heard the orc woman say softly, "My lord, save the slave and maid." ”

She turned her head sharply, her eyes staring at the woman behind her.

I turned my head strangely and took a closer look, and the woman had smooth and fair skin under her neck, except for two fluffy ears.

I walked over to her and said, "Look up." ”

The woman raised her head tremblingly, and on her deliberately black-and-gray face were two bright eyes.

I asked, "Are you an evolution?"

She nodded and said, "My lord, I am a fox evolution. ”

I turned my head and said to Erte, "You take someone to take a look, there are evolutionary forms, we have bought them in Chaoyang Temple." Also, call Doha to meet me. ”

She nodded to me gratefully and hurried to the market management office.

The young man from Luofengpo looked at me a little helplessly and said, "Second Brother Xu, we didn't know that you wanted to evolve, and the people we brought back were all children and women. ”

I smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, you do yours, I took this woman away, and you will go to the market management office to get the money later, just according to the market price." ”

The young man was stunned, and then said with a smile: "Okay, okay, Second Brother Xu, next time I see an evolution in good condition, I'll send it to you." ”

I took the fox woman back to Chaoyang Temple, and Li Xuefeng sat in the tearoom and drank tea.

When he saw that I had brought back a slave, he got up and walked up to me with a strange look, and said to me with a smile, "You don't hate to buy slaves?"

I said to the little bottle who was playing with ants in the corner, "Bottle, take her to wash, find a dress for her, and then bring her to meet us." ”

After the vial had taken her away, Doha trotted to the front of the temple.

I moved a stool to Doha, and Li Xuefeng poured another cup of tea and handed it to him.

Doha drank the tea in one go, and said breathlessly: "Brother Li, Second Brother Xu, why did you call me here, I'm collecting rent." ”

I smiled and said, "Do you know that among the orc slaves sold in the bazaar, there are evolutionary forms?"

Doha looked at me and said, "Yes." ”

My face became serious, and I said, "Evolved are not ordinary orcs, they are no different from humans. ”

Doha said strangely: "The orcs who joined the Protoss are not of the same mind as us. ”

Li Xuefeng also smiled and said: "It turns out that you are here for this, the evolution of the beast race is also divided into camps, and the evolution of the god race has no good impression of the people of the fairy realm." ”

I shook my head and said, "What if they don't know that there is a peach source? You also saw that the Wolong Mountain Range is so poor, and there are evolutions there, why? I think it's very likely that they don't know about our Chaoyang Temple." ”

At this time, the vial came over with the fox woman.

This evolution is a young woman in her twenties, with a beautiful face, and if it weren't for the two big fluffy ears on the top of her head, she would be completely indistinguishable from a Terran woman.

At this time, she held her hair and wore a Li Xuefeng's green robe, with a graceful posture and a graceful posture, and Li Xuefeng and I looked at each other.

The fox woman blessed the three of us, and then said to me, "Thank you, my lord. ”

I smiled and said, "Don't thank me first, tell me your name, why you went to the Wolong Mountain Range, and how you became a slave." ”

Before the fox woman could speak, her eyes turned red first.

"My name is Qin Xiang'er, and I was originally a singer in Tianxiangyuan in Qianyuan City. ”

A year ago, Qianyuan City somehow expelled all the orcs, evolutions, and humanoids from the twenty-four towns under its rule, and they were not accepted by the orc royal court and the Golden Horde City on the grassland, and because there was no way to guide them, they could not enter Qingfeng City, so they had to flee into the Wolong Mountains.

"About tens of thousands of people, when they first entered the mountain, were attacked by the beast clan and the god clan on the grassland, and most of them died, and then the rest of the people formed several cottages and villages before surviving. ”

Qin Xiang'er said.

I stood up and said to Doha: "Immediately organize people and take Qin Xiang'er into the mountains to find the beasts, humanoids and evolutionaries expelled from Qianyuan City, and explain to them clearly that we in Chaoyang Temple can shelter them." ”

Li Xuefeng also stood up and said with a smile: "At the same time, tell the people in the cottage that when you meet these people, men, women and children, they will escort them to Chaoyang Temple, and we will give money according to the market price." ”

After the two left, Li Xuefeng and I looked at each other and smiled.

Li Xuefeng said: "I don't know how many people?"

I smiled and said, "At least the first settlement will be full." ”

......

......

The first settlement, originally built with four settlements, could accommodate eight or nine thousand people.

But now there are hundreds of people from the mountain tribe moving in, plus dozens of guards in Dawana, and there are less than 800 people in the full fight.

According to Li Xuefeng, Chaoyang Temple is not lacking in anything now, but it lacks manpower.

Yes, the market management office alone needs more than 100 people, dozens of dolls go to school, more than 100 people need for planting and breeding farms, more than 100 people for hunting teams, and almost all the young and middle-aged men and women are used.

No one is Li Xuefeng's biggest annoyance.

A week later, Doha sent back 3,000 people, and the cottages sent more than 1,000.

The most surprising thing was that Chen Qinglong learned that we were recruiting the abandoned sons of Thousand Yuan City, and bought more than 2,000 people from Qingfeng City.

Li Xuefeng and I looked at the four big men kneeling under the steps in front of the hall, and couldn't help laughing.

"Stand up. I said with a smile.

The four of them stood up together.

These four people are the leaders of the largest four Qianyuan City abandoned cottages in Wolong Mountain.

The big man on the far left is named Xiong Er, who is at least two meters tall and has a lilac fur all over his body.

Xiong Er turned out to be the captain of the Hurricane Legion in Thousand Yuan City, and he belonged to the better mix of the orc evolution, but he was also swept away in the Thousand Yuan City's convulsive movement to eliminate alien races.

The short and sturdy Golden Horde man in the middle is called Worm, who is the personal slave and thug of Chen Yong, the owner of Baishengmen in Qianyuan City, who specializes in dirty work, and it is said that he has dozens of lives under him, but Chen Yong can't save him, so he has no choice but to prepare a large cart of food weapons for him, and let him fend for himself.

Next to the worm is a sturdy man who is almost the same as the human race in appearance, named Ao Guangdong, who was originally a butcher in the east city of Qianyuan City. When Li Xuefeng saw him, he actually stretched out his hands and gave him a bear hug. Yes, he is an Iron Horde, that is, a Ni, and an eight-winged Ni, which is almost a top-notch existence in the Iron Horde.

The last one is a human race named Chu Wanyuan, who was originally the head of the hundred households of the city defense guard of Qianyuan City. As for why he was swept away, it was because he married the wife of a copper horde, and because he was unwilling to leave his wife and three sons, he voluntarily accompanied them out of Qianyuan City.

"It's just because I'm beautiful, and besides, I have three sons! What is there to be nostalgic for in Qianyuan City? As long as the husband has the ability, he can make a world wherever he goes. ”

Chu Wanyuan said nonchalantly.

I looked at the four of them and said with a smile: "We have no discrimination in Chaoyang Temple, everyone, welcome to Chaoyang Temple." ”
