Chapter 37: Going their Own Way

About a hundred miles northeast of Nakajima, there is an island slightly smaller than Nakajima, which was discovered by Mi Lun's grandfather, Mi Jing, when he was young, and later his family called it Jingdao.

After years of operation and construction, it has become a fortress on the sea, where the Mi family has hoarded a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, copper, coins, iron and stone, there are 300 heavily armed veterans on the island, and no ships are allowed to be left around the island.

When they rotate and repair every year, they are blindfolded, their ears are blocked, their limbs are tied, and they are only allowed to return to land after floating on the boat for a few days, and the person in charge of it is Mi Fu, the first housekeeper of the Mi family, and that Jingdao is the last retreat of the Mi family.

After Mi Lun finished talking about Jingdao, he paused for a while and then said to Wang Ping: "Only my father, eldest brother and I and some relevant personnel know this secret, and even the second brother Mi Fang didn't tell me, I hope that the virtuous brother can keep this secret for the Mi family." ”

Wang Ping knew how powerful the matter was, and hurriedly gave a guarantee, and then continued to analyze Mi Lun: "Don't go to Jingdao first, Jingdao is the last secret base of the Mi family, don't start it first, I think it's good to go to Zhongdao." ”

There are lakes and rivers within a radius of more than ten miles on the island, drinking water is not a problem at all, if the defense facilities are built around the island, it will definitely be easy to defend and difficult to attack, and when they really train a team of elite soldiers, they will have the strength to compete with other forces.

After listening to Wang Ping's speech, Mi Lun recalled the experience of the past few days, first Sun Ce disguised himself to cheat grain, and then Zang Ba led troops to attack the East China Sea, and Xinzhou Mu Liu Bei also forced the Mi family to hand over 5,000 Ding, so that the Mi family would have to be eaten clean sooner or later.

The Mi family has been rich for too long, and it is really time to restrain it.

According to Wang Ping's analysis, there is Yuan Shao in the north of Xuzhou, Yuan Shu and Sun Ce in the south, and Cao Cao in the west, who will be devoured by all the princes sooner or later, and there are Liu Beijun, Kaiyang Army and Lu Bu's army who still wants to infiltrate Xuzhou, so many warlords are gathered here, I am afraid that Xuzhou will not have a peaceful day.

The east of Xuzhou is the sea, and the best development of the Mi family in recent years is shipping, if they focus on the sea, with the island as a base, the use of shipbuilding and navigation technology advantages to dominate a sea area is still very feasible.

At the beginning, they could also use sea ships to trade supplies from north to south, accumulate wealth while building sea fortresses, and when they have a certain strength, they can rely on sea ships to attack and harass the land, which is really offensive and defensible.

And Wang Ping also emphasized to him that if you want to build Zhongdao into a city on the sea, you need many skilled people, so the entire Donghai County, even the whole of Xuzhou, whether it is shipbuilding, building houses, or striking iron, as long as you have a skill, you must think of going to Zhongdao.

Mi Lun was moved after listening to Wang Ping's analysis, it sounded like the overlord on the sea was much more carefree than on land.

Now that Mi Lun is in control of the Mi Zi Order, the thousands of Mi family children who are guarding the city can be called at any time, so Mi Lun decided to start transferring materials and personnel to Zhongdao tomorrow, and his father Mi Tu should not oppose his decision to run the island.

At this time, Wang Ping saw that it was getting late and was about to go back to rest, because he had something important to do tomorrow.

The next day, Wang Ping came to the grass house as scheduled, he didn't see Yu Qing, but he met the dry season fishing on the shore, so he hurriedly went up to salute.

Gan Ji looked at Wang Ping with an unfathomable expression and asked, "There will be a big event in this Donghai County, if you are the Taishou here, what will you do with it?" ”

Wang Ping thought to himself that it must be Yu Qing who said the apprenticeship, is this a study of my qualifications? You'll have to answer carefully to satisfy him.

Wang Ping thought for a while and replied: "The East China Sea, the land of the four wars in Xuzhou, will not be able to be protected, if I first avoid the edge, retreat to the island to build a foundation, and wait until the opportunity arises to counterattack and come back to dominate the side." ”

Gan Ji said with a smile: "Your vision and strategy are no worse than those of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, but I don't know if you have the ambition to dominate the world in your heart?" ”

Gan Ji's sentence said that Wang Ping is like a lightning strike, it is not easy to dominate one side with the strength of their brothers, and it is only a fool's dream to think about dominating the world at this time.

I heard Wang Ping reply: "If you haven't learned to walk, how dare you run." ”

Gan Ji was very satisfied when he heard this, turned around and praised Wang Pingdao: "That night, I saw that you were quite a king on the city wall, so I wanted to test you, I am very happy that you know the strengths and weaknesses, if you boasted about Haikou just now and replied that you have the heart to fight for hegemony, then I won't mention the matter of apprenticeship today." ”

Wang Ping didn't know what to say for a while, and looked at Gan Ji stupidly, when Yu Qing came out of the grass house and said to him: "You fool, why are you still standing there stupidly after you have been called to apprentice!" Don't want to learn spells anymore? ”

In fact, Wang Ping is still a little resistant to apprenticeship, he can apprentice in order to get the elixir, but that is to ask for medicine for Wang Yue, because in Wang Ping's heart, he can only have one master, and that person is Wang Yue, who raised him since childhood.

Wang Ping said with some embarrassment: "Old man, I came here to look for the gods in order to ask for elixir for my master, is it a little inappropriate to worship you as my master again!" At the very least, I have to ask for the master's intention before I can worship you again! ”

Gan Ji not only didn't get angry when he heard this, but happily closed his mouth and said: "This is good, smart, sensible, and knows filial piety to the teacher, it's very good!" But you have to worship me as a teacher, or you won't want this elixir. ”

Gan Ji saw that he was still a little reluctant, so he scolded angrily: "Okay, you rabbit cub, I Yu Ji want to accept you as an apprentice, but you dare to push back, be careful that I burn your eyebrows." ”

Yu Qing saw that Gan Ji was angry and hurriedly stopped in front of Wang Ping to intercede for him: "Grandpa, he doesn't want to apprentice, don't you just accept him as a godgrandson, don't you have to be a master and apprentice to learn the exercises?" ”

As soon as Gan Ji heard this idea, it was very good, Yu Qing was his granddaughter, and this time he had another grandson, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's not bad to accept a grandson, good grandson hurry up and kowtow to grandpa!" ”

In fact, Wang Ping was already stunned when he heard Gan Ji say that he was Yu Ji, he didn't expect this Gan Ji to be really Yu Ji, Wang Ping thought to himself, "This is a land immortal, a land immortal that even the masters of the divine realm have to look up to, what did he say to recognize me as a godgrandson, kowtow?" ”

Wang Ping, who had just woken up from a dream, quickly knelt down and kowtowed, shouting: "Thank you to the gods, thank you grandpa!" ”

Yu Ji nodded and told Wang Ping to get up, then took out a small jade bottle from his arms and threw it to him.

After Wang Ping took it, he wanted to open it but was stopped by Yu Qing, who told him that it was a 'Pei Yuan Dan' that ordinary people could increase their life for three years if they ate it, and giving it to Wang Yue would definitely repair his damaged meridians.

It's just that this elixir can't be exposed to the bottle for a long time, so as not to lose its efficacy, and such an elixir is already difficult to refine, because it is difficult to find all the raw materials needed now, such as one of them, the dragon grass has basically disappeared.

When Wang Ping heard that it was so precious, he hurriedly put it away, and thought that he would quickly send the medicine back to Luoyang, and when he wanted to give Yu Ji leave and leave, he heard Yu Ji make three more requests.

First, this elixir and Yu Ji's immortal traces, Wang Ping is not allowed to spread it randomly, second, he must follow Yu Qing back to Zhongdao tomorrow, and third, Wang Ping is required to practice on the island for a year before he can leave the island on his own.

The first two things are not difficult, but Wang Ping is a little puzzled by the fact that he is not allowed to leave the island for a year, he is planning with Mi Lun at this time, and he is really reluctant to give up suddenly.

Gan Ji had already seen his thoughts and sneered: "With your ability, you still want to learn to dominate, do you think which king is not surrounded by masters, with only your weak force, can you block several sneak attacks and assassinations?" ”

Wang Ping thought to himself, his master Wang Yue was thinking about the Han court, and his senior brother Zhao Yun was about to become Liu Bei's subordinate, and there was no one around him to protect him.

The emotions that were originally high in Wang Ping's heart made Gan Ji's words stimulated a little lost, and wanting to dominate is not something that can be achieved with a few simple deployments!

Gan Ji saw that he was a little hit and comforted: "You go to practice with me, I guarantee that you will be able to beat the master of the middle innate stage in a year." As soon as he raised his hand, the fishing rod leaning against the shore flew into his hand and took things from the air!

One year can be compared to the middle of the congenital realm, from the acquired realm to the middle of the congenital realm, what a big gap this is, many people can not continue to move forward after entering the peak of the day after tomorrow, and some have also seen the threshold of the innate realm after groping for most of their lives.

Wang Ping was shocked by Gan Ji's sudden understanding, he wanted to go to the island, he had to go to the island. Only when our own strength is improved can we better realize the ideal in our hearts.

After temporarily saying goodbye to Gan Ji and Yu Qing, Wang Ping returned to Mifu to wait, he had to wait for Zhao Yun to come back to help him deliver the medicine to Luoyang.

When Zhao Yun came back, it was already the afternoon of this day, Wang Ping told Zhao Yun what happened in the morning, hoping that he could send the elixir to Wang Yue for himself, Zhao Yun would naturally agree, and he also agreed with his practice with Yu Ji, after all, the opportunity to learn from the land immortals is not something you can ask for.

Zhao Yun encouraged Wang Ping well, and then he told Wang Ping that he would go to Youzhou in person.

The people sent by Liu Bei to Youzhou replied that they had found Tong Fei's whereabouts, and Tong Fei also agreed to come to Xuzhou, but the border between Youzhou and Jizhou, which Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao had been fighting for many years, had been in a state of blockade for a long time, and Tong Fei's family was not easy to get out for a while, so Zhao Yun was ready to personally go to the north to escort them over.

Youzhou Road is far away and the war is chaotic, Zhao Yun is only afraid that it will be a long time to go, and Wang Ping is just going to enter the island to practice for a year, and the two brothers know that they will not be able to see each other for at least a year, and they are extremely reluctant in their hearts.

That night, they shouted Mi Lun and got drunk together, during the banquet they blessed each other, and finally Mi Zhen also came, she has been persuaded by her family to marry Liu Bei in the past few days, and she is very depressed in her heart, and now she is a little disheartened when she hears that Zhao Yun is leaving.

Perhaps it was the instigation of Wang Ping and Mi Lun beside him, Zhao Yun actually took the initiative to hug Mi Zhen, and Mi Zhen looked at Zhao Yun affectionately without saying a word, but she didn't want to let go of her clasped hands.

Early the next morning, Zhao Yun rode to Luoyang with the elixir, and Wang Ping and Mi Lun also took their own actions after seeing him off.

Mi Lun continued to preside over the transfer and construction of Donghai County and Nakajima, while Wang Ping followed Yu Qing to Nakajima.

Before the two brothers separated, Wang Ping warned Mi Lun that if Zang Ba attacked again, he would show weakness, and he would not have a dispute with him even if he gave up Donghai City, and should focus on the island under construction.

Mi Lun thought that the Mi family's strength was not as good as before, and if Zang Ba came again, he could only seek peace, and Yu Qing kept urging him to get on the boat, and the two brothers could only reluctantly wave goodbye in their hearts, and the boat drifted to Zhongdao downwind, and Wang Ping also embarked on his road to cultivation.
