Duan Zhong rested in the house for a few days, and when he was lying on the bed a little moldy, he really couldn't stay, so he called Zhu Siwen and asked to go out for a walk.

As a second-stage martial arts master, it is a very depressing thing not to be valued and cared for by the master, and the reason why Duan Chong did this is because Zhu Siwen is the eyeliner of his Lao Tzu Zheng Kangdi, and he has to secretly send a letter back every other month to report Duan Chong's recent whereabouts and movements, for this kind of thing. Although it is out of his own Lao Tzu's concern for himself, and what he does to let Lao Tzu know that it is not a big deal, but it still makes people feel a little disgusted, Duan Zhong does not like the feeling of being monitored, so Zhu Siwen always does some extremely marginal tasks, for Duan Chong's movements, but there is a general understanding, but what did Duan Zhong do specifically? Then I don't know anything.

Zhu Siwen is not stupid, it has long been seen that the master can snub himself, but Zhu Siwen not only has one master, but also has a master's Lao Tzu, who is also a master...... So under the trade-off, he could only do some corner work, watching Jiang Mingchen, the inner guard who came with him, being reused, that is, Lian Duan Zhong rescued Ji Wuchang and Fu Yousu from prison, and they seemed to be more valued than themselves, and Zhu Siwen's seemingly strong but actually extremely fragile heart was being destroyed.

After some careful consideration, Zhu Siwen resolutely decided to change the camp and firmly stood on Duan Chong's side, and Zhu Siwen's most direct way to express his position was to come to Duan Chong with a pen and paper and say: "Master, the emperor asks to write a letter about your current situation every month and send it back, how to write it this month, you say, I will write it!" Duan Zhong was very appreciative of Zhu Siwen's clever and knowledgeable approach, and in view of the fact that this comrade was able to learn his way back, Duan Zhong resolutely decided to hand over some more important undertakings, such as the sales of perfumes, to Comrade Zhu Siwen.

Of course, Duan Zhong will gradually tell Zhu Siwen some information, since he is loyal and a member of his own family, he is really not afraid of anything? For example, the existence of the "poison dagger", Zhu Siwen is not stupid, Duan Chong's help to the eldest prince of Xiao Beiping is well known, and Zhu Siwen will naturally think about what hole cards Duan Chong has to help the eldest prince of Nanliang to gain a firm foothold, and after some extremely precise speculation, he found that his little master should have an extremely amazing force.

At this time, Chongzheng was sitting lazily on the carriage roasting the stove, and the medicine sent by the Great Grandmaster of Dongyi was extremely effective. Although the injury is not light, but after nearly half a month of conditioning, the blood on the chest has been cleared, if you don't exercise vigorously, you won't feel pain, but a few broken ribs and there is no good way, you can only let it recover slowly, and it is no longer a problem to move around slowly, the person who drove the car is Zhu Siwen, because Zongzi and Jiang Mingchen are not around, Fu Yousu wants to Zhang Luo Yushengtang's affairs, because of Duan Chong's majestic plan, Yushengtang has to be busy for a while to recruit a large number of people, even so, still can't meet the demand for talents, so Duan Zhong can only write a letter back and ask his brother to help screen a group of people with good potential to send over. Although Duan Zhong can also ask for a lot of people from Xiao Li's side, there will be some nails mixed in with it, which is not something Duan Zhong wants to see.

For Xiao Li, Duan Zhong has always maintained secret contacts with him, the third prince of the former Great Liang, also has the extremely tenacious temperament of a martial artist, since he can endure it for more than ten years, he can continue to endure it, and he knows the most suitable time to jump out, and Duan Chong has also been doing his ideological work, not leaking some information about the cultivation of his own forces, Duan Chong believes that these nails in Xiao Li's hands will also convey the information back as soon as possible, and his own power has developed extremely rapidly, and there is already a faint momentum to take root in Nanliang, In the long run, it is definitely enough to pose a threat to the ruler, which is also a situation that Xiao Li is extremely willing to see, so this vigilant cooperative relationship is still maintained in some kind of extremely fragile balance.

However, with zongzi, Duan Chong's fear of Xiao Li has been greatly weakened, after all, the tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs, this Xiao Li is like a phoenix that has lost its hair, it is not much stronger than a chicken, if there is no help from himself, Xiao Li wants to turn over the salted fish, and the possibility is infinitely close to zero.

The carriage was "da-da" towards the suburbs of Nanjing, at first along the wide official road, after a while, then turned onto the forest path, and finally walked more and more remotely, has arrived at a deserted place, but the most strange thing is that there is a road that is not wide or narrow in this kind of place, and it is easy to identify that the road has just been dug up.

The road was not long, and it didn't take much manpower, but it stopped at the entrance of a valley, Zhu Siwen opened the curtain and said to Duan Zhong, who was sitting inside, "Little master, it should be here!" ”

Duan Zhong nodded, stood up and walked out of the carriage, it was snowing lightly outside, the road was a little slippery, Duan Chong's body had not recovered well, so Zhu Siwen had to hold on carefully, the place where the carriage stopped was a small valley, and there were many mountains in Nanjing City. Although it is not high, the terrain is quite complex, so there are many valleys hidden in it, which are rarely inhabited.

At this moment, there was a stone wall in front of the carriage, blocking the way forward, Duan Zhong walked in front of a stone wall, beckoned Zhu Siwen to point to a stone wall and said, "Move this stone away!" ”

Zhu Siwen was stunned, and after a closer look, there was an extremely slight crack on the stone wall, which happened to become a square, like a door, Zhu Siwen was full of true energy, pinched the gap and moved it violently, only to find that the original stone door was far from being as heavy as he imagined, and when the door was opened, his strength was also used in the empty space, and he suddenly planted a big heel, and Duan Chong, who saw it, covered his mouth and smiled.

Zhu Siwen looked at the dark and dark back door of the stone gate, and didn't know what was hidden inside? asked, "Little master, here is ......!" ”

Duan Zhong shook his head: "You won't know if you go in!" With that, he slipped in.

Behind this stone gate is a small tunnel dug artificially, only one or two zhang long, and behind it is an open valley surrounded by small hills, which can be said to be extremely hidden, and it is impossible for anyone to find this kind of place, but Duan Zhong also found it, what surprised Zhu Siwen the most was that this valley of hundreds of zhang square was not as overgrown and difficult to enter as he thought, but it was strange, and there were many ...... People, isn't this a paradise?

This place was discovered when he first entered Nanjing City, Duan Zhong is a person who is extremely good at planning for a rainy day, before doing anything, he will know what he should do to achieve his goal, since he promised to help Xiao Li, it is far from enough to have silver, and the "poison dagger" that has been prepared by hundreds of people is far from enough, Duan Chong needs his own power the most, and in Nanjing City and even Nanliang, if he abruptly forms a force, it will definitely be wiped out as quickly as possible, Therefore, Duan Zhong needs to find the most hidden place.

When he first entered Nanjing, Duan Chong paid great attention to the surrounding terrain, found this extremely hidden place, and secretly sent people to secretly carry out development and excavation work, Duan Chong had rescued many people from the prison when he was in Dali, including Ji Wuchang and Fu Yousu, but one of them has never been mentioned, called Cui Rixing, is a craftsman, Duan Zhong rescued him from Dali, he was sent directly to Changsha Prefecture to guard Chen's only place, in recent years, Chen only has made remarkable achievements, This Cui Rixing is really helping in it, building dams, reclaiming farmland, building houses, and Cui Rixing's shadow is indispensable everywhere. Although most of the work is done in the shadows.

After Duan Zhong arrived in Changsha Mansion, he left with Cui Rixing, and also included many craftsmen gathered from Changsha Mansion, after Duan Zhong selected this valley, these craftsmen began a process of creation from scratch, and counting the time, the development of this place has been nearly a year.

Duan Zhong earned a lot of silver in Nanliang, but he rarely spent silver, others would naturally think that Duan Chong was a miser, a profit-seeking businessman, but Duan Chong did not put away these silver, except for the "poison dagger", the rest were all smashed into the creation of this valley, and today there will be this kind of scene in front of him.

When Duan Zhong drilled out of the tunnel, many people had already surrounded him with knives and guns, and the leader was an apprentice taught by Fu Yousu, who naturally knew Duan Chong, so he hurriedly bowed and saluted, Duan Chong waved his hand: "You guys are busy with your own going!" After saying that, he turned to Zhu Siwen and said, "Welcome to the Snow Night Phoenix!" ”

The question of the formation and integration of his own forces is definitely not a whim of Duan Chong, but a well-planned and well-planned strategy, which can be seen from the construction of this valley.

As far as the eye can see, the scale of this valley is not big, but it is really not small, there is about seven or eight hundred acres of land, half of which is farmland, which is taken care of by craftsmen on weekdays, and it is completely self-sufficient, there are two springs in the valley, a bay of rivers, and the water source is not a problem, and the other half of the land has been opened up into a martial arts training ground, and all kinds of facilities are complete, that is, horses are also raised, and there are blacksmiths who make iron, supply weapons and equipment, and it is really a small country isolated from the world. Originally, Zhu Siwen was still wondering where Duan Chong's strange tools came from, but when he saw the blacksmith shop in this valley, his heart suddenly understood,
