On Tuesday morning, at the regular working meeting of the Alliance, two of the most important issues in recent times were discussed. Since each family has representatives stationed in the Nanlan community, there are always exchanges in private, and they often eat in a canteen.

But today's first topic is not among the two items planned in advance, it is a temporary episode, that is, the matter that Wuxin Valley sent to each Linggu yesterday. After everyone arrived, they all expressed their gratitude, and then asked if they could buy more Linggu? The price of Wuhua Valley is not expensive, 100,000 catties, and there are those who have deep pockets, such as the representative of Qiyan Realm, who want to come first with 100 catties.

Shi Heyu is very embarrassed to tell everyone, it is not easy to transport out of these spirit valleys, please taste and experience its spiritual effect for free, Wuxin Valley provides more than 100 catties of Linggu every year, it is impossible to sell them to one, the so-called sales are symbolic, Wuxin Valley is more willing to be used to exchange special products with other worlds.

The exchange of special products is preferred, and the so-called special products are of course not ordinary things, they are all spiritual plants or treasures produced in the world outside the party, and these need not be explained. It's okay to buy with money, but it can only be distributed according to the needs of each family, and it is impossible to meet all of them.

Ma Xiao, the director of Jingsha Island, was also a member of the meeting, and when he heard this, he was thinking about what special products he could exchange, but he was disappointed to find that there didn't seem to be. Do you use coconut crabs? Unfortunately, coconut crabs are not special products. Ma Xiao still doesn't know about the recent events on Jingsha Island, and he doesn't know that Lu Juzi led the team to find the Jingsha Orb. In fact, even if she knew, it was useless, and it was almost impossible to exchange something like the Jingsha Orb.

As for how to take out their own specialties, that is another problem, it is not good to discuss openly at the meeting, so you can only discuss with the Ding League Master privately or ask Lu Yudong for help, as long as it is under the same conditions, most people are still more willing to go to the Ding League Master.

The crowd asked again how many Spirit Valleys were still available for sale in Wuxin Valley? Yan Binbin replied that there were still fifteen catties, and then he was purchased on the spot within a few minutes. Except for Jinshan Courtyard, Xiaojing Lake, Big and Small Chishan, and Jiufang Likong Island, which did not ask for acquisition, the other families divided the fifteen catties, and even Li Zhiyao also bought one on behalf of Xiangshuifeng. These incomes are actually Zhuang Mengzhou's, but Zhuang Mengzhou did not come forward himself, and all of them were handed over to Wuxin Valley as an agent.

The acquisition of Linggu is just an episode, and the next thing to discuss is the big issues in the plan. First of all, there is another Fang Wai World that has applied to join the Alliance, and this Fang Wai World Tian Zhongluo has already mentioned that it is called Chang Cheng Blessed Land. Like Jingsha Island, only Tian Zhongluo wrote down the name of the Changcheng Blessed Land, so it also needs to be audited on the spot.

According to the feedback from Yang Fuzhu of Changcheng Blessed Land, the review time is set for this week, and this meeting will agree on which three directors from different sides of the world will be sent to Wulingyuan Scenic Area, Zhangjiajie, Hunan Province. Of course, everyone wants to go to this kind of thing, but no matter what the occasion is what you do, you have to talk about seniority, and here it's not about seniority but about qualifications.

This matter was contacted by Tian Zhongluo, and he was also equivalent to the role of a guarantor, so Qiyan Realm wanted to go to a director, of course, it was Tian Zhongluo himself. The second place is still the leader of the Ding League, which is not controversial. As for the third place, after discussion, everyone agreed that they should choose between Wuxin Valley and Jingsha Island, and finally Jingsha Island was given.

The last time I went to Jingsha Island for on-site audit, the three directors of the Fangwai Alliance were Tian Zhongluo, Ding Qi, and Shui Ruo. The reason why Shui Ruo was able to review the new members on behalf of the Fangwai Alliance was because Xiangshui Peak had opened the secret realm of heaven and earth. Now that Jingsha Island has also opened the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, this is an act worthy of encouragement, and of course it is also qualified to send representatives to review new members.

Jingsha Island has three directors in the Fangwai Alliance, namely Ma Yuanling, Ma Xiao and Ma Yunxuan. Vice Chairman Yu Pengfei waved his hand on the spot and said: "What my family Tian Shi means is that Director Ma Xiao will go together, otherwise the two big men Tian Shi and Chairman Ding will be too boring on the road, so it's decided!"

What he said was also interesting, which director of Jingsha Island should be sent, Tian Zhongluo could decide, why not the island owner Ma Yuanling? Tian Zhongluo did this just to test and see if he could speak well. As a result, Jingsha Island did not deal with Tian Zhongluo in this matter after all, and the final candidate was Ma Xiao.

The third audit director was determined to be Ma Xiao, and that was the night after the meeting. The next topic that was discussed in the meeting room was that some members had discovered clues to a new world outside the world. According to ancient books, the name of this world is called Xiaoyang Kingdom, and its location may be in Fang County, Hubei Province, in the north of Shenlongjia Nature Reserve.

When the Outside Alliance was founded, it determined the function of finding a new outside world. The headquarters of the alliance has set up five functional departments, namely: the Administration Department, which is in charge of the Development Department by Vice Chairman Yu Pengfei, and the Vice Chairman Yu Pengfei is also in charge of the Audit Department, Vice Chairman Ye Zongqing is in charge of the Activity Department, and Vice Chairman Shui Ruo is in charge of the last department called the Research Department, which is personally in charge of the Chairman Ding Qi.

The main function of the research department is to collect and search for undiscovered and unoccupied uncharted worlds. If it can be found, it will also be the result of the research of the Outside Alliance, and then the Alliance will decide how to share and develop this new outside world.

The idea is very good, but in reality it is very unreliable. Because according to the experience since ancient times, the possession of the outer world must obtain the treasure of the realm control and the corresponding secret method inheritance, since it is an unknown and ownerless outer world, where can you find these things?

The most important functional departments of the Fangwai Alliance are actually the Administration Department and the Development Department. The Administration Department is equivalent to the headquarters office, responsible for the day-to-day affairs of the Outside Alliance, while the Development Department is the most important business department, whose main job is to attract and review new members of the Outside World, and to organize and summarize the information of the outside world.

It can be seen from the structure of the establishment of the Fangwai Alliance that Ding Qi, the chairman, is actually hollowed out, because the other two vice presidents, Shui Ruo and Ye Zongqing, are not resident at the headquarters, and Yu Pengfei, the executive vice president, actually controls the daily affairs of the Fangwai Alliance.

This is the framework made by Tian Zhongluo, although this old fox abacus played well, but the actual situation did not develop according to his vision. Ding Qi, the chairman of the board of directors who did not work in the headquarters, personally attended and presided over the regular work meeting every week, he first opened the Jinshan Academy, and expanded the scale of the meeting of the Fangwai Alliance, so that all member representatives were present, and directly controlled the situation.

As for Yu Pengfei, the executive vice chairman of Tian Zhongluo's headquarters installed in the headquarters, it is equivalent to being vacated by Ding Qi, which is equivalent to an office director. Interested people can also notice some very interesting details at this meeting, everyone has unconsciously called Ding Qi the leader of the Ding League, only Yu Pengfei also called him Chairman Ding, very careful about proportion.

And this time, the clues of Xiaoyang Kingdom were discovered by Piaohuatan, and then submitted to the headquarters of the Fangwai Alliance. Since Ding Qi is nominally in charge of the research department, this is what he should be responsible for.

The country of Xiaoyang is recorded in many ancient books. Mountains and seas pass through the sea and south through clouds: "Xiaoyang country is in the west of Beiqu." It is everyone's face and long lips, black body with hair, heels, laughing when people laugh, and the left hand is in charge. "There are records about Xiaoyang Kingdom in later generations, most of which are wild legends, and they are all related to savages, and many clues point to Shennongjia.

In the ancient context, savage also referred to uneducated people in the mountains, but in modern times, it has completely changed to a different meaning, referring to an undiscovered humanoid species, a bit like ape-man who has not yet fully evolved into a human. In ancient times, there were many names for this type of species, such as mountain ghosts, brute fangs, mountain mandrills, mountain capitals, wooden guests, Gan giants, hairy people, baboons, etc., and they have a collective name is Xiaoyang.

It is important to point out that mandrills and baboons are the names of two primates today, but this was not the case in ancient times. These two words have long been used in ancient Chinese, and they have been borrowed by modern zoologists when naming species in Chinese. The ancient Chinese did not refer to these two animals, but to what people today call savages or legendary mountain spirits.

There are many records of witnessing savages in the area of Shennongjia since ancient times, and there is such a text in the Fangxian Chronicles: "Fangshan is high and dangerous, the stone cave is like a house, hairy people, long and long, and there is hair all over the body." "In the 70s and 90s of the last century, the state organized many scientific expeditions.

These expeditions were not fruitless, and a lot of indirect suspicious evidence was found, such as suspicious hair, feces, nests, footprints, etc., but no real specimens were captured, so it was impossible to determine whether wild humans existed. Regardless of whether the savages exist or not, they have led to the development of local tourism, and from this point of view, the Shennongjia savages are a bit like the Loch Ness Monster.

In ancient times, there were many legends about the country of Xiaoyang and "Xiaoyang", and there are many controversies in the academic circles today. Some people think that it is a primate such as a gorilla, and some people think that it is a black race in South Asia, such as the Kunlun Nu in ancient times, but there is no clear conclusion.

In the Zhaozhao period, when sorting out the codex records left by the ancestors of the past dynasties, he found a record about the Xiaoyang Kingdom, and even attached a map, which was suspected to be a record of another world outside the party. Originally, these wild history rumors and records were not true, and Hua Zhaoqi didn't have the idea of looking for them, but after joining the Fangwai Alliance, he felt that he could use the power of the entire alliance to explore.

So Piaohuatan provided the relevant information to the headquarters of the Fangwai Alliance, and said their thoughts for everyone to discuss. As a result, You Huaijie, Lu Yudong, and Wuxin Valley all reported that they had also seen the content of Xiaoyang Kingdom in the codex left by the ancestor, but they did not explicitly mention that it was also an outside world.

All the information has been summarized here in Dingzi, and this matter is discussed in today's meeting. After everyone studied together, they felt that these materials were not complete, and they recorded the miraculous legends of the past dynasties, and the ancestors of the outside world were also interested in these things.

Xiaoyang Kingdom is only suspected of being outside the world at the moment, and then it is necessary to further collect various materials for analysis and confirmation, and after everyone goes back, they each find out whether the ancestors of the past generations have also left relevant records. If there are more clues, the Fangwai Alliance can organize a "scientific expedition team" to Shennongjia to try to search, but the current conditions are not ripe.

In fact, whether there really is a world outside the world called Xiaoyang Kingdom, everyone is not sure. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if this outer world exists, how can you find it, can it be the secret realm of the ownerless heaven and earth? Even if you find this outer world, how can you enter without the treasure of the controlling realm and the inheritance of the secret realm of heaven and earth?

These are all problems that need to be solved before we can talk about joint exploration and development. Let's have a brainstorming session at the meeting, anyway, we are idle, we are idle, we read the relevant information to express our opinions, and finally reached a preliminary consensus.

In the last century, the state organized a number of special scientific expeditions, and first tried to get hold of these scientific expedition reports and detailed data records through their respective relationships, so as to see if they could find some suspicious clues from them. If there is a real discovery, the Fangwai Alliance will organize an exploration team to go there, and it is best for each family to send representatives.

Why is it best for each family to send representatives, in addition to embodying the principle of sharing, the research department of the Fangwai Alliance is not in vain. Through field visits and exchanges with members of various families, Ding Qi has summarized some discoveries in different worlds. Because Ding Qi had already created the secret method outside the square, today's discovery is just a kind of rediscovery that goes back to the past.

Why does the inheritance of the outer world contain at least one of the eight secret techniques of the rivers and lakes? The secret techniques of the eight gates of the rivers and lakes are said to have been created by the Qing Emperor Fu Xi, and in the era of Fu Xi, there were no eight gates of the rivers and lakes of later generations, and the purpose of his creation of these eight secret techniques should not be to let the heirs go to the rivers and lakes, make thresholds, or even cheat and deceive, but should be used to look up to the heavens and the earth and explore the light.

Ignoring the secret methods outside the square, even if you don't get the treasure of the control realm and the inheritance of the secret realm of heaven and earth, as long as you practice the eight secret techniques of the rivers and lakes, you can also discover a specific outside world. This is a conclusion that Ding Qi and others have long confirmed, and later did more field investigations.

For example, the inheritance of Jinshan Temple should include the Juemen Wangqi Technique, so if you practice the Juemen Wangqi Technique, you can discover its portal and "see" the scene in the secret realm through the portal. In addition to the Juemen Wangqi Technique, Ding Qi also found that it was actually possible to use the Menxing Divine Technique. However, the other secret techniques such as the Concealment Technique, the Body Contemplation Technique, the Furnace Ding Technique, the Micro Technique, and the Heart Disc Technique have no effect, and the effect of the Spirit Rhino Technique is unknown.

As for the Nine Liberation Empty Island, in addition to the Vital Gate Xing Divine Technique inherited by itself, the Jue Gate Wangqi Technique can also see its portal. The inheritance of the big and small red mountains also contains the magic of the door, and it can also be found with the Juemen Wangqi technique. There is a law in this, and these three prescriptions are applied to the same two secret techniques to induce discovery.

Xiangshui Peak's inheritance secret method includes the Fire Gate Furnace Ding Technique, so if the Furnace Ding Technique is successfully cultivated, its portal can be discovered, and the other secret techniques seem to be ineffective, and it is unknown whether the Spirit Rhino Technique can be discovered.

The Five Heart Valley, which inherits the Floating Gate Hidden Technique, can also discover its portal with the Wind Gate Heart Disk Technique.

The secret method of inheritance in the world of Qin Gaotai contains the Tired Gate Observation Technique, and the secret method inheritance of Jingsha Island also contains the Fatigue Gate Observation Technique, and through Ding Qi's field investigation, it can also be found in its practical book and subtle techniques.

Now the general rule has been summed up, that is, no matter what kind of outer world, there are at least one or two eight secret techniques that can discover their portals, as long as the right place is found.

Ding Qi also understood why Zhu Jingyi would call Xiaojing Lake "the pure model of veganism in the Fangwai World" in the Fangwai Atlas, because no matter which secret technique of the eight gates of the rivers and lakes was cultivated, one could find its portal, and its characteristics were balanced and not biased.

So if there is an unknown world outside the world, we must first determine its approximate location, and when looking for it, it is best to call all the descendants of the eight secret techniques of the rivers and lakes, and there is always a secret art that can be adapted to it. Once you've found the portal, try to find its inheritance based on new clues, and if it's still there, at least find the Treasure of the Realm. That's what we discussed.

That's the end of the regular meeting, and then we go to the cafeteria to eat. Ma Xiao may be the most popular director of the Fangwai Alliance who is now resident in the Nanlan community, because she has opened a five-star standard canteen for everyone and provided convenient life services. Xian Hao didn't want Ding Qi to go to the cafeteria to eat, and always made it himself at home.

When he went out, Ding Qi deliberately called Fei Laiming, the director of Piaohuatan, who was stationed here, and asked privately: "At present, the most important clue about Xiaoyang Kingdom is that the ancient map that the Lord of Guitan has found. According to the Huatan Lord's identification, it is believed that it is the topography of Fang County, Hubei, and there is a cinnabar red dot marking the location of Xiaoyang Kingdom. Can you lend me the original Gutu?"

It is said that it is a map of the Song Dynasty, the original is of course very precious and must be carefully preserved, it is impossible to get it to the meeting for everyone to pass it around, and the floating flower pool provides high-definition photos. But this picture is the most important clue, without it, the other records are actually of little value, so Ding Qi must get the original to determine the authenticity.

Fei Lai Ming said with a smile: "Lord Huatan has long thought that Lord Ding might ask for the original, and he has already sent someone to send it to me, and I will send it to Lord Ding Meng's house when I turn around." ”

Ding Qi: "Then what's so embarrassing, I'll go with you to get it now." ”

PS: Thank you all for your blessings, I am very touched! I am very happy! Thank you!
