"They're gone."

Yarou whispered a reminder as she watched a group of Indians disappear into the horizon.

Yang Yun did not chase, there are many thorns in the forest, poisonous snakes and beasts will appear at any time, a little more movement will alarm the natives in front, he used his spiritual power to track the whereabouts of these people, after a while, tell Yarou the location, let Yarou open a door not far ahead, and easily catch up with the pace of the Indians.

After repeating this six or seven times, Yang Yun traced these people to a primitive tribe, located in the depths of the dense forest, at the site of an empty dam.

The camp is backed by a hill about 100 meters high, and a stream flows in front of the camp gate, and men, women and children haunt the neighborhood from time to time.

There are no tall and neat houses, all of them are simple wooden sheds, which seem to be leaking everywhere, Yang Yun analyzed that these people should live in the cave at the back, and this is the time when they are preparing dinner.

This camp is very primitive and backward, but it is better to be vigilant enough, and there are people standing on the trees of several towering trees around it, who should be in charge of standing guard.

The sentry guards are generally not very old, and most of them are women, who should have been specially trained by the tribe to climb the big trees to monitor the movement of the distance and give early warning.

In the camp, a group of people gathered together to peel the skin of the prey, heard a loud whistle from the treetops, everyone stood up, looked up, and found that it was the return of the tribesmen who had gone out to hunt, everyone was very excited, especially when they saw that a group of hunters had caught three or four hundred catties of prey, they knew that today was another harvest day.

Men and women from the camp flocked to the camp gates.

The two wooden doors were opened, and Yang Yun carefully observed them, the door panels were very thin, and the wooden fences built around the tribal settlements were also very sparse, so they could not defend themselves against the attacks of human armed forces equipped with swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and even the slightly ferocious beasts could break through the walls and only resist the smaller beasts.

Some of the Indian children were the first to gather around, followed by the relatives of the hunters who had gone out to hunt, and they were huddled together, giggling and talking, and in a short time the natives scattered in a strange formation, dancing and chanting, as if performing some strange ritual.

Yang Yun used his spiritual power to explore around the camp, and found that there were not many people, and they might add up to one hundred and ten people, among which there were only thirty or forty strong men, and there were relatively more women, as for those rickety old people, Yang Yun took a closer look, and they were probably thirty or forty years old, and they were mostly in the prime of life in Datang.

But if you think about it carefully, you can understand that in such a difficult environment to survive, facing natural disasters and wild beasts at any time, the life expectancy of the indigenous people should not be long.

This is not a large tribe, it is likely that it is just a branch of a certain social tribe, and Yang Yun does not know if he can find more natives through the conquest of this tribe.

For Yang Yun, if he can bring the people of this tribe back to serve as coolies, it can solve the problem of manpower shortage to a large extent.

Seeing that it was not early, the sky gradually darkened, and Yang Yun pondered about returning to the camp first.

The South American continent is not developed at this time, and it is very dangerous to move at night, he took Yarou in the primeval jungle, not to mention what would happen if he was discovered by this group of natives, even if it was an unknown danger around him, it was enough to drink a pot, Yang Yun decided to go back first and then plan well.

It seems unrealistic to conquer this tribe on your own, and you must have helpers, preferably with a small army of thirty or forty men, who should easily be able to govern this Indian tribe as long as they are neatly dressed, armoured and bowed.

"Master, where did you and Yarou go today?"

Yang Yun came to Camp No. 2 and No. 1 respectively and took several girls back to Datang.

In the courtyard rented by Yang Yun in Luoyang City, several people sat together, and the girls thought that Yang Yun was going to talk about practice.

Yang Yun told a few girls what he saw in the primeval forest.

"Master is saying that there are ordinary people in the Heavenly Realm?" Wu Yuan was the first to express his consternation.

Yang Yun shook his head with a smile and said, "I said before that it was the Heavenly Kingdom, but it was just to deceive the ordinary people who followed us in the past and appease them. In fact, you know very well that the place where Yarou can take us can only be within the four seas, which is just a wild land that has not been developed for the time being. ”

The girls looked at each other.

Some understand, but more people are confused for a while.

But for most girls, no matter where they are, as long as they can follow Yang Yun and eat and drink without worry.

"So how are we going to behave over there? In case we are targeted by the barbarians, like the Tibetan barbarians and the Turks, and send an army to loot us, won't all the efforts be in vain......"

Wu Yuan said that she was worried, but she obviously overestimated the strength of those primitive tribes, and besides, she did not know the distance between the indigenous tribes and the two camps.

More than two hundred miles away, these people could not threaten Yang Yun and his ongoing colonization in South America.

Yang Yundao: "To put it simply, that is a group of primitive people, whose productivity is extremely backward, and they use weapons made of bone or stone, at most a little bronze ......."

"Master, what is bronze?"

An Lun asked with wide eyes.

"It's copperware, which is originally soft and doesn't pull a few pieces, but it becomes hard when some elements are added, but it's not worth mentioning for iron. As long as there is an armed force equipped with iron weapons to fight them, those primitive people will have no room to resist, not to mention that we are still equipped with weapons and armor made of steel? ”

The weapons made by Yang Yun with the help of Wu Yuan are much better than the standard weapons owned by the Tang Dynasty Army, but now he has no plans to use them in the Tang Dynasty Army.

First, the output is extremely limited, and second, Yang Yun's subordinates are seriously understaffed and cannot achieve large-scale production.

Wu Yuan's face was solemn and asked, "What does the master mean, is he going to send troops to arrest those primitive people back and let them work for us?" ”

Yang Yun was very satisfied with Wu Yuan's comprehension, and nodded: "I have this idea, tomorrow after we pass, we will prepare to select some strong people in the camp, and after a little training, they will go with us to fight the primitive tribe." ”

Several girls looked at each other.

Didn't you say that you went to that Heavenly Realm to build a camp just for alchemy?

Why is there still a war now?

Although these girls all have special abilities, their abilities are limited, and it is more suitable for them to cooperate with each other under the command of Yang Yun, perform some scenes, and let them fight with the natives, which is simply unrealistic.

And Yang Yun will not let them put themselves in danger.

"I'll go with the master." Wu Yuan first said that she felt that she could help Yang Yun, her ability was very outstanding among several apprentices, and there was no problem in dealing with ten or eight.

Yaqing suddenly stood up and asked expectantly, "Master, are we going too?" ”

Unlike other girls who are afraid of war, Yaqing is young and doesn't understand what it means to fight, and thinks it's a fun thing.

Yang Yun smiled and said, "How could I let you go into danger? In this way, Wu Yuan and Yarou will go with me tomorrow, and others will stay to watch the house. ”

"But I want to go too."

Yaqing pouted, looking reluctant.

Recently, Yang Yun and the others were busy colonizing on the other side of the space gate, and she was left at home and couldn't go anywhere, Yang Yun didn't want to be distracted by taking care of the children, and didn't want to be infamous as hiring "child labor", so he simply let Yaqing guard the house.

This can make Yaqing suffocated.

"Yaqing, obedient, what follows is a war with possible casualties, I won't put you in danger, so don't want to risk following me, as for Wu Yuan and Yarou...... As long as you two follow me, there will be no danger, unless there is a very urgent situation, otherwise I don't need you to rush ahead! ”

Yang Yun finished the arrangement and asked the girls who were busy for "one night" to rest, while Yang Yun simply sorted out his mood, seized the time to take a nap, and tried to restart his brain.

The sky is gradually brightening here, and there may be something waiting for him to deal with at any time.

……

……

Sure enough, just after the morning hour, he was summoned to the palace to face the saint.

In the Zhenguan Palace, Li Longji was very surprised when he saw Yang Yun, and asked: "National Teacher, I see that you are in a very bad state, you are haggard, and you have dark circles, but you have been very tired recently?" ”

In and out of the words, it seems to be saying that Yang Yun is busy dealing with the women at home, which leads to a lack of energy.

Yang Yun hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, the minister is trying to refine the elixir, and now he just has a clue. ”

Li Longji was a little surprised, and asked curiously, "Is the alchemy of the national teacher going well?" I don't know what progress has been made? ”

Yang Yun told him about the matters he had prepared in Datang some time ago, and informed Li Longji that there was a merchant family sponsoring his alchemy, and also explained the progress of alchemy, which probably meant that the alchemy furnace was about to be completed, and the next step was to try refining the fairy grass to see the effect.

Li Longji was very happy to hear this, and said: "The national teacher is dedicated to me and the Tang Dynasty, I am very relieved, I don't know what I can do to help the national teacher?" ”

Seeing that the emperor was so enthusiastic, Yang Yun wanted to say, as long as you lend me an army.

But when the words came to his lips, he still held back.

It's good to let Li Longji help, but the aftermath is very troublesome, how to explain to Li Longji, and whether he can make Li Longji believe it, are unknown.

At present, Li Longji, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, categorically will not allow anyone to use his army to do things that are harmful to the interests of the Tang Dynasty, so Yang Yun can only choose not to ask Li Longji for help.

"Back to Your Majesty, everything is going well, if there is any difficulty, the minister can solve it by himself." Yang Yun indicated that he would rely on his own strength to refine the pill.

Li Longji smiled and nodded, and said, "The national teacher has worked hard, I called you here this time to prepare to give you a knight...... I thought that now that your sister is a noble concubine, if you don't have a title in the court, others will definitely criticize me. ”

Yang Yun thought to himself, as a Taoist, I relied on some means that are not in the eyes of many people to get today's status, even if you give me a title, they will look up to me?

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yang Yun expressed his gratitude at the right time.

The title is a thing, it's okay if you don't have it, it's better to have it, the title is high, you can use this to recruit people to facilitate the colonization of the Americas, and those middle and lower-level officials who don't know each other will also retreat.

Now it can be found that he is secretly making trouble, it is definitely not the high-ranking officials of the DPRK and the central government, they are out of touch with the lower class society, and the most dangerous thing is precisely the people from the local government, after all, Yang Yun has transferred people from the local government one after another, and it is "evaporation from the world", if the family reports the case, the local government will track it down, and it will be easy to find out the Cao Gang, the Mi family and Yang Yun.

"I decided to give you a marquis first, and as for the specific title and fief, I have to think about it carefully." Li Longji said that he was giving Yang Yun a knight, but he didn't prepare anything.

There is a sense of wanting Yang Yun to know in advance, let Yang Yun go and tell Yang Yuhuan, and then ask for credit.

Sure enough, after Li Longji finished talking about this, he immediately said to Yang Yun: "You can go and see the concubine and inform her of this matter, in addition, I have sent some things to Yang Laoqing's house, where the concubine has lived for a long time, yesterday, and I am ready to promote Yang Laoqing's family to an important position in the court, and you can also inform the concubine." ”

Only then did Yang Yun understand that Li Longji experienced the joy of fish and water with Yang Yuhuan, and felt that his body and mind were sublimated, and it was when his feelings were strong, but he went to Xuannuguan again, but he did not get the warm hospitality he imagined, so he suffered from gains and losses, and wanted to see what the current situation was through Yang Yun.

Yang Yun said: "The minister will retire." ”

Li Longji smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Lux, you accompany the national teacher to see the concubine, and I won't go with you." ”

In the past few days, Li Longji went to the Xuannu Temple but couldn't get Yang Yuhuan's good face, and finally became acquainted, and it was easy not to touch the mold, so as not to arouse Yang Yuhuan's disgust and affect their "husband and wife relationship".

……

……

Yang Yun, accompanied by Gao Lishi, went to see Yang Yuhuan.

Gao Lishi flattered Yang Yun on the road, calling himself an "old slave", and treated Yang Yun as a master, but Yang Yun knew that Gao Lishi's methods were clever, which was a way to try to alleviate Yang Yun's vigilance and try to spy on secrets.

When he arrived at the Xuannu Temple, Gao Lishi stayed outside, and Yang Yun entered.

Yang Yuhuan was sleeping in.

After Yang Yun came in, she rubbed her sleepy eyes, looked up, and asked, "Shiro, you have no conscience, why haven't you come to see my sister these days?" ”

Yang Yun thought to himself, what kind of place is this, can I come every day? Unless the emperor decrees a summons, he can only take the risk and sneak to meet him......

Yang Yun said with a smile: "As a foreign minister, how can you enter and leave the palace casually? Moreover, His Majesty had been guarding the Xuannu Temple before, how could the younger brother dare to see his sister in private...... What's the matter, my sister is bored staying here? ”

"Humph!"

Yang Yuhuan glanced at Yang Yun and said, "What do you mean...... Can't take me out of the palace to play for the time being? It's really boring these days, that old guy wants to take me to the inner palace every day to enjoy the flowers and listen to music, but I can meet his concubines wherever I go, every time I buzz and make me have a headache, where am I interested! ”

Yang Yun finally understood that now Li Longji not only wanted to develop a relationship with Yang Yuhuan, but also wanted to gradually bring Yang Yuhuan into the normal life mode of the palace.

Li Longji wanted Yang Yuhuan to be a real concubine, not a high-ranking incarnation of a Xuannu.

Yang Yun said: "I'm busy with alchemy these days, and I don't have time to take care of my sister, so I will definitely take my sister out to play when I go back." ”

"Are you alchemy? What can be refined? Is it an elixir of immortality? ”

In the past, Yang Yuhuan was not interested in the elixir that Yang Yun had refined, because she knew that it was a lie, but now she was very interested in it.

Yang Yun wanted to tell the inside story, but after a little pondering, he nodded and said, "If you refine it, you can indeed live forever." ”

"Net braggart ......"

Yang Yuhuan didn't believe it on his lips, but he doubted it in his heart.

Yang Yun's ability is too big, many things are what she has seen with her own eyes, such as letting her soar through the clouds, or opening the space door to take her out, if Yang Yun can really refine the elixir of immortality, she will definitely come first.

Yang Yun said with a smile: "When I finish refining, I will let my sister try it." ”

Yang Yuhuan's face looked a little better, and he pursed his lips and smiled: "Don't poison my sister to death...... My sister is a person who wants to be a god, what does it mean to be immortal in the world? ”

Unconsciously, Yang Yuhuan leaked the "secret" buried deep in his heart.

Yang Yuhuan has a "little secret", that is, she secretly communicated with the Nine Heavens Xuannu, and she was sure that she could become an immortal. Needless to say, no matter how many gifts he gave, it was useless. ”

"My sister misunderstood, I just came to tell my sister that His Majesty wants to give me a knighthood, which is a marquis, and said that I want to give the third uncle a high-ranking official, maybe my father can also get a posthumous title...... My Yang family is finally glorious because of my sister. Yang Yun smiled and told Li Longji what he had confessed.

Yang Yuhuan showed a smug look on his face, and said, "If my sister has no ability at all, can she suppress the emperor?" ”

Yang Yun said: "Then sister, be careful, if Your Majesty suddenly breaks in, I'm afraid that my sister won't be able to deal with it in a hurry." ”

"Do you think he didn't do that? I came running suddenly last night, but fortunately I reacted in time and used a little trick to make him swoon, and finally he slipped away......"

Only then did Yang Yun know that Yang Yuhuan had already used the charm technique.

The ultimate in enchantment is illusion, which makes people indulge in illusion and control their body and mind.

Sure enough, I can't underestimate my sister's ability, Yang Yuhuan is definitely a king in front of a man, and even Li Longji can't resist it.
