Open the cage village, the conference hall, Ying Shao is introducing the construction of the outer camp to Bai Cang, there is a sand table on the table, on which the drawings of the inner and outer villages are drawn, and Ying Shao explains the effect of the building one by one.

"It seems that our cage village has been built by Mr. Ying, even if the thieves attack, we can also protect the people in our village from harm" Bai Cang looked at the sand table and said with a smile.

"It's not as simple as the young master thinks, the outer village seems to be strong, but it is all built of wood, and now it is the season of dry grass and dry grass, there is a shortage of water in the north, and if the enemy attacks with fire, I am afraid that the cage village is in danger" Ying Shao shook his head and said worriedly.

Bai Cang hesitated for a moment and asked, "What should Mr. Nayi do?" ”。

"I have ordered people to dig deep trenches to resist the fire, but the cost of manpower is huge, except for some people who moved from Tianjiabao in our village, there is no external force to use, and the scarcity of water is also a big problem, not only to reserve enough water for food during the war, but also to spend a huge amount of other aspects, these two points are the most important to solve at present" Ying Shao thought about it and raised two questions.

"Don't we still have hundreds of recruits, why don't we arrange some to come over and work for a while, and it will be considered a workout," Ying Lin proposed on the side.

Ying Shao waved his hand, "No, the soldiers are very important, and the head of the higher education is now racing against time for training, we can't drag our feet, and we have to solve our own affairs."

"These two points are not easy to solve, Tianjiabao took away most of the households, although we have gathered the remaining some, but some of the people who are unwilling to leave are not good to be strong, so good, order someone to pass the word, just say that they are willing to come to live in the cage village, each household will send a stone of grain, and the thrift should be enough for a family of three to carry this winter, I am sending someone to Fengjia Town to borrow some strong men to solve the urgent need" Bai Cang also has no good countermeasures, after all, there are only these people within a hundred and ten miles around, even if they are all pulled over, how many can there be.

Ying Shao nodded again and again, "This is good, don't worry, young master, we are not opening a good hall, as long as people come, I will naturally make the best use of it, but the water source is still a problem."

Bai Cang also meditated worriedly, it can't be conjured without water, this is really a problem.

At this time, the herald outside the door entered the door to report, "The two generals Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang have returned, and they are now waiting outside for the owner of the village to summon them."

"Oh? This also needs to be summoned, just call it in" Bai Cang hurriedly shouted when he heard that it was the Lu brothers who came back.

"Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang, I have seen the owner of the village, my brother is fortunate not to be dishonored, he has returned from Jinyang City, the letter has been brought, this is the letter that Lord Assassin Shi ordered the two of us to bring back, please take a look at the owner of the village."

Bai Cang took it and looked at it, it roughly said that you must be careful, and she didn't say anything in particular, she put it down and smiled, "The two of you have worked hard, this time is not short, and you have suffered a lot along the way."

"This little bit of hard work is trivial, the owner of the village doesn't know, I think that when our brothers were chopping firewood in the mountains, they always couldn't eat, and even quenching their thirst was to grab a handful of snow and gnaw two mouthfuls, this time going to Jinyang is a beautiful thing" Lu Kuang said with a smile.

"What did you say?" Ying Shao grabbed him and shouted after listening to Lu Kuang.

"What's wrong, Mr. Ying? What's wrong with the little one? Lu Kuang was startled, and pondered repeatedly if there was something wrong with him just now.

Ying Shao ignored him, and just asked, "You just said that you grabbed a handful of snow and were willing to take two bites, and that's how you quenched your thirst in the mountains?" ”。

Bai Cang also understood when he heard it, and laughed loudly, "Okay, well, it's finally solved the urgent need, why didn't we expect that there is a lot of snow in the mountains in the cold winter now, and it is just right to use it."

Ying Lin explained to the Lu brothers in a low voice, and the two brothers suddenly realized, "I see, if the village is mainly short of water, there is snow in this mountain, and it will be enough for our village to use it for more than half a year."

"Okay, this matter will be handed over to the two of you, and when the manpower is enough, you will be responsible for this matter" Bai Cang was happy in his heart, and solved the two biggest problems at once, this time it finally stabilized, as long as he carried it until the beginning of spring, he would definitely be on the right track, and this open cage village was his starting point.

In the Chaohan Valley, Zhang Yan sat in the first place in a dull manner, and Huang Long and Qingniujiao stood beside him, both of them with a gloomy face, because they had seen their own strength that they could not resist.

"Is everything you say true?" Zhang Yan still couldn't believe it.

"Chief sacrificial wine, how dare we deceive and lie about this kind of thing, I saw with my own eyes that the people of Peach Blossom Valley rescued that kid, one of them is like a ghost, unfathomable, I joined forces with Qingniu like being played, if he wants to take my two lives, you will never see me today."

Qing Niujiao also echoed, "What Huang Long said is true, the other one is also very powerful, we are surrounded by dozens of sect members, but I am afraid that this is not the most powerful."

"Nonsense, Peach Blossom Valley is difficult to enter for a hundred years, it is already a miracle that the two of you can come back alive when you see the people of Peach Blossom Valley, don't leak this news for the time being, if you call the master to know, I'm afraid something will happen."

"So what should we do now? That kid won't hide in the Peach Blossom Valley and not come out," Huang Long said unwillingly.

Zhang Yan hesitated for a moment and asked, "You said that the direction of that kid is Luoyang?" ”。

"That's right, the direction we chased at the beginning was Luoyang, but we changed the way after being surrounded by us."

"Why are you going to Luoyang properly? Now at a critical time, Luoyang moved his whole body, he was going at this time, did he notice something? Zhang Yan said with doubts.

Qingniujiao was silent on the side, thinking in his heart, "What can Luoyang do now?" Mr. Zhang's sacrificial wine flickered between his words, could there be something to hide? ”。

"Lao Qing, I arranged for you to take over Taiyuan County, how did you do?" Zhang Yan asked suddenly.

"Huh? Ah~~~~~ Taiyuan County is basically in control now, except for some of Lao Niu's old departments who were taken away by the kid surnamed Pei, most of them have been collected by me, and the general sacrificial wine is relieved" Qingniujiao didn't react for a while, and hesitated and replied.

"Hehehe~~~ Lao Qing, you and I have not been short for a long time, there are some things I shouldn't have hidden from you, but the stakes are very high, in case of leakage of news, what I am afraid of is not the chaos in the world, but the life of you and me, do you know what I mean?" Zhang Yan said with a smile.

Qing Niujiao inadvertently took two steps back and said, "What the big sacrificial wine said is that the small one is just a little curious, now that he knows it, he naturally understands the importance of the matter, and the sacrificial wine lord does not have to worry, the small one is guaranteed to be tight-lipped."

"That's good, that's good, I'm naturally relieved~~~~" Zhang Yan said with a slight smile in her eyes.

Before the words fell, two figures suddenly flashed next to him, and they rushed towards the green bull's horns left and right, and under the attack, they cut off all the space for him to escape.

"Zhang Yan~~~~~~ you want to kill your mouth?" Qingniujiao had long felt that something was wrong, the incident happened suddenly, and it was not without psychological preparation, his body shook and rushed upward, as long as he crossed the top of Zhang Yan's head, there was a way out behind him.

"Don't you think it's too late to leave now?" Zhang Yan snorted coldly, and his body burst out, and a pair of iron palms just blocked in front of the green bull horns, "pop ~~~~~", one palm slapped on the chest and the other palm hit the abdomen, and after beating the two palms, he twisted his body and kicked out.

"Poof~~~" Qingniujiao was kicked and fell backwards, lying on the ground and spurting out a mouthful of blood, staring at Zhang Yan with round eyes, the boss with his mouth open, just couldn't make a sound.

Zhang Yan waved his hand casually and said, "Send him on the road", one of them stepped forward and slammed the door of the green cow horn, and immediately fell to the ground bleeding and died.

Huang Long was so frightened that he knelt down with his legs weak, "The chief sacrificial wine spares his life, and the small one is also forced to do so, otherwise he will never tell him."

Zhang Yan turned over and sat down, smiled slightly, lowered his body and stroked Huang Long and said, "Hehe~~ Don't be nervous, such cunning people are not available, I will naturally get rid of them, how can I harm you who are so loyal, get up, don't be polite with me."

"Thank you for not killing the chief sacrifice, the small one will be repaid with death" Huang Long Kankan stood aside uneasily, and glanced at the two big men with his spare eyes.

Zhang Yan saw him cautiously and smiled, "You haven't seen these two yet, let me introduce you to you, this is called Yang Feng, which one is Yu Poison, these two people are my fellow villagers, and they only came to take refuge with me recently, now Qingniujiao is dead, Pei Yuanshao has left, Zhou Cang's whereabouts are unknown, and there are too many vacancies in the position of the great sacrificial wine in my state, so now let him and the two of them go first, you guys have a good affection, and you will have more contact in the future."

"Yes, the little one will definitely introduce us and the state scenery more, so that the two brothers can get acquainted with it as soon as possible" Huang Long's mind These two must be Zhang Yan's cronies who have been secretly cultivated a long time ago, if he doesn't do well, I'm afraid that sooner or later he will be replaced.

"Okay, you go back and straighten out the people, I'm afraid there will be an accident in the near future, you prepare in advance, and the incident is also investigated, don't leak the news again."

"Yes, yes~~~~ Even if the small ones are given the courage to the sky, they won't do it, and the small ones will go down first" Although the valley is like spring all year round, the valley is not warm in the ice and snow outside, and Huanglong is sweating profusely as if exposed to the scorching sun.

Yang Feng looked at Huang Long, who had left, and asked Zhang Yan, "Why didn't Zhang Protector kill him too, the more people who knew about this matter, the more trouble it would be."

"You know a fart, kill him and you help me run errands, although it is not good to know more people, but as long as you can keep the secret, you are not afraid, don't worry, this person has been with me for many years, I know his character very well, he doesn't dare to have other thoughts" Zhang Yan glared at Yang Feng and said angrily.

"Yes, it's just that when I came down, I was in charge of teaching and admonishing, and I just reminded the Dharma Protector."

"Okay, okay, you two are okay, don't make trouble for me, if you are not satisfied with my work, then you can stay here, and I will go to enjoy the blessings."

"Don't dare, don't dare, the leader ordered the two of us to support the Dharma Protector, and my subordinates don't dare to say anything," Yang Feng said respectfully.

"Then shut up for me, don't point fingers" Zhang Yan stood up, shook the dust off his clothes and walked towards the room.
