Chapter 115: Chengtianguan

Black Cloud City, Fang Family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The Fang family is a cultivation family in Black Cloud City, extremely prominent in the small city of Black Cloud City, the head of its family is the commander of the garrison of this Black Cloud City, and he is the top master of the Jade Liquid Realm, his name is Fang Cheng.

As the commander of the garrison of Black Cloud City, commanding tens of thousands of troops, and in charge of the defense and security of Black Cloud City, his power is not small, and it is deeply rooted in Black Cloud City, it can be said that even the garrison Zheng Qian has to look at his face.

Today he got a message from the garrison Zheng Qian, so he went home early and convened a meeting of the powerful people in the family.

Generally, there is no major matter, Fang Cheng is not holding a family meeting, at this time, he holds a family meeting, and everyone in the Fang family also understands that there is something important to discuss.

In the conference room, Fang Cheng looked at the brothers, and said with a long sigh: "Everyone, although our family can say that this Black Cloud City covers the sky with one hand, it is a pity that this Black Cloud City is too small, and being an earth emperor in this Black Cloud City is like a rootless Ping at all, if you provoke a strong person one day, you will die out if you can't say it." So after thinking about it, I want to expand the power of our Fang family, and seek a safe backer to strengthen the power of our Fang family, what do you think? ā€

"What the eldest brother said is, but our Fang family's industry is in Black Cloud City, although our Fang family says that there is a huge power in this Black Cloud City, but there are not many families that are not much different from our Fang family, if we rashly expand our power, will it cause the alarm of other families? What if they band together to suppress us? ā€

Now the power of the several major families in Black Cloud City can be said to be in a state of absolute balance, if any family wants to expand its power, it will definitely cause the siege of other families, so Fang Wanli is so worried.

He was not the only one who thought so, but his words resonated with others as well.

Fang Cheng smiled slightly: "Wanli, do you think I can't think of this kind of thing?" What you said is all in my consideration, so the expansion force I am talking about is not an expansion force in the traditional sense, but an increase in the deterrent power of our Fang family through other means. ā€

"How?"

"Do you remember the Lu family who dominated Black Cloud City thirty years ago?"

"The Lu family? Isn't it the Lu family of the three heroes back then? A person in charge of the Fang family, who was in charge of business, remembered the events of the year and said.

"That's right, it's the Lu family of the three heroes."

This Lu family produced three soldiers of the Zhenshan Army back then, and even one of them became a centurion, which made the Lu family's power in Heiyun City greatly increased, and became the first family in Heiyun City, and later the Lu family migrated, leaving the remote town of Heiyun City, and arrived in Fucheng, after thirty years of operation, it is now a big force in Fucheng.

The current Fang family actually grasped the power vacuum when the Lu family left, and took the position.

"Could it be that the Zhenshan Army's Zhenshan Order has appeared again?" One of them had a clear mind, and when he heard Fang Cheng mention the Lu family, he guessed Fang Cheng's plan.

"That's right. Today, the garrison told me that the envoy of the Zhenshan Army has arrived in Black Cloud City, and unlike thirty years ago, the envoy from the Zhenshan Army this time is a great master of the Jindan Realm, and the Zhenshan Order is much more than thirty years ago. ā€

"I remember that thirty years ago, there were thirty-six Zhenshan orders in Black Cloud City, and at that time, in order to compete for this Zhenshan order, but there were countless casualties, I don't know how much more Zhenshan orders this time were compared to that year?"

"There are one hundred and eight pieces of Zhenshan Order this time, which is much more than thirty years ago. Now the power of our Fang family is no worse than the power of the Lu family thirty years ago, thirty years ago, the Lu family could seize three Zhenshan Orders, and thirty years later, our family can't even win three Zhenshan Orders? As long as you have the Zhenshan Order, you can use the Zhenshan Army as a promotion asset to strengthen the family. Fang Cheng arrived with confidence.

"I think it's feasible, there are a lot of young talents in our family, Fang Jue, Fang Di, Fang Yu, Fang Mao, Fang Li, etc. are all talents, and now they all have the realm of the late stage of gathering qi. Especially Fang Lin, the son of the eldest brother, is already in the realm of transforming the yuan, condensing the true yuan, and achieving the realm of jade liquid is just around the corner, as long as he can capture the Zhenshan order, with the power of our Fang family, no one can take it away, and once the period is over, it is also an ironclad thing to enter the Zhenshan army. I think there's a lot to be done. Fang Wanli said.

Fang Cheng and Fang Wanli are half-siblings, when Fang Wanli was young, his cultivation was outstanding, but he was a concubine, so he couldn't inherit the family business, Fang Cheng knew that although this Fang Wanli supported him on the surface, he didn't quite convince himself behind his back, and now he heard him boast about his child, and he was also quite happy in his heart, his child was also one of the best talents in Black Cloud City, and he had already returned to the Yuan when he had just become an adult, and he was even more outstanding than when he and Fang Wanli were young.

Despite this, on the surface, he waved his hand and said: "Where did Wan Li say, although Xiao'er has a little name, but after all, it is just raised by everyone, and your child's qualifications are not inferior to my son." ā€

Fang Wanli smiled slightly, not speaking.

"But although this matter can be done, but now I'm afraid that the Zhenshan Order has been issued, those people must hide the Zhenshan Order as a treasure, and it is not so easy to seize one, how can we get the news of the Zhenshan Order, this is the most important thing."

"Don't worry about this, have you forgotten why the Lu family was able to seize the three Zhenshan Orders thirty years ago?"

"Mu Xuanji?"

Mu Xuanji is a Taoist priest who lives in a dilapidated Taoist temple in the south of the city. In the eyes of ordinary people, this person is just a charlatan, but generally people with some forces and backgrounds know that Mu Xuanji is an unfathomable master. This person came to Black Cloud City fifty years ago, and at first he was inconspicuous, just like an ordinary person among all living beings, but thirty years ago he became famous.

The previous generation of Black Cloud City guards were friends with him, and before the garrison left, it was revealed that this wooden mystic machine was not only cultivated to Tongtian, but also proficient in the number of heavenly machines, and was good at divination and deduction, and the reason why the Lu family was able to get three Zhenshan orders was to ask for his divination technique. Because of his help, the Lu family got three Zhenshan orders.

Now the Fang family is also preparing a large amount of wealth, ready to ask for this wooden mystery to calculate a hexagram.

In the Chengtian Temple, a young and strong young man wearing coarse linen clothes is under the scorching sun, is swinging an axe in the courtyard to chop wood, this young man has been chopping wood here for a morning, at this time until noon, his stomach is empty, with a sense of hunger, turned his head to look at the broken window of the quiet room, just to see a well-dressed middle-aged Taoist priest sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, as if meditating and participating in meditation.

"Master!"

After calling twice, he found that the master did not take care of him, so he put down the axe and carefully pushed open the door and walked in. It turned out that the middle-aged Taoist priest was not meditating and participating in Zen at all, but was sleeping heavily.

"I'm not ashamed, I can't get up yet."

There was a loud shout, and the already broken windows around the earthquake trembled, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.

The middle-aged Taoist priest woke up in shock, looked at his own apprentice in front of him and said, "Forgot the opportunity, have you started eating?" ā€

"Open dinner?" Forget the machine was stunned, and said with a smile: "Yesterday's leftovers, do you want to eat them?" ā€

"Leftovers? Forget it! He raised his eyes and looked at the courtyard, and found that there was still some firewood that had not been chopped, so he shook his head slightly: "Although it is not finished, it is already noon, you should go and cook!" By the way, boil a pot of water, and when you have eaten, there will be guests at the door. ā€

"I'm doing it again. Didn't you say that you would be able to do it for a month? ā€

"That's what you said and not what I said, you agreed, I didn't agree, there is a way that 'a gentleman is far away from cooking'. These are the words of the saints, and I have to start from them! ā€

"That's what the sage said, 'gentleman', you are a cultivator, you have nothing to do with a gentleman, right? What's more, how did Master live before he took me as an apprentice? Isn't it a personal cook? "Forget the machine and be dissatisfied.

Mu Xuanji's face was solemn, and he said: "Boy, what do you know, as long as someone practices the way of a gentleman, whether that person is a monk or a Taoist, that person can be called a gentleman." Although your master and I are Taoist priests, Taoist priests need to practice the way of a gentleman. Not only me, but if everyone in the world could practice the way of a gentleman, then there would be no disputes in this world, and the world would have been the same. As for the teacher before confiscating you, the poor road lived by fate. ā€

Wangji was silent and said: "What a gentleman's way, if it is really like what the master said, if everyone becomes a gentleman, I don't know if there is a great harmony in the world, I know that I am afraid that everyone in the world will starve to death, because everyone is a gentleman, then everyone will not be able to cook, what will you eat at that time?" ā€

Mu Xuanji smiled slightly and said: "All things are born to feed people, people can't die of hunger, even if they don't cook, people can pick fruits to satisfy their hunger!" ā€

Wangji knew that it would be no good to talk to his master, who was a strong word, so he could only leave in a huff and go to cook.
