Zhou Ziheng was slightly stunned when he heard Zhang Zijing's words.

Although the consensus of the cultivation community is that cultivation must rely on oneself, one step at a time, in order to go steadily and far. There is a general negative attitude towards taking medicine to increase the speed of practice.

Moreover, the side effects of improving the realm through drug stimulation are very obvious and outweigh the losses, and they are only used to produce a large number of cannon fodder below level five.

But for some holy medicines that have won the heavens, they are still very sought after.

The Yin Yang Reconstruction Pill, which is claimed to be able to give people a second life, is among the most sought after, and it belongs to the priceless kind!

Zhou Ziheng never expected that these old guys would bet so much on chess.

However, with their status, this is normal. The Yin Yang Recreation Pill is a priceless treasure, and that's for ordinary people. For them, it's something that is commonplace. Slightly better stuff at best.

Zhou Ziheng thought about it and was relieved.

He stepped in front of Xue Weifeng and Hu Minghui.

Before he could speak, Hu Minghui smiled at him and said, "Thank you." ”

Zhou Ziheng was confused and asked, "Sect Master Hu, why do you thank me?"

Hu Minghui smiled and said, "I made a bet with Xue Shuai just now. He said that the first one to come over in a while must be Xuanying. Unexpectedly, it was you who came first. ”

Hu Minghui said, stretched out his hand to Xue Weifeng and said with a smile: "Take it." ”

Xue Weifeng was also refreshed, his palm flipped over, and there was a small white jade box on his palm, and he handed it to Hu Minghui.

Hu Minghui took the small white jade box, opened it and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Not bad, not bad." Sure enough, it was white dew as frost. I didn't expect you to really carry this treasure on you. ”

This is a holy medicine that breaks down the demonic barrier and maintains the stability of the Dao heart when you are promoted! Compared with the white dew as frost, the Yin Yang Recreation Pill is simply pediatric. I didn't expect these two people to make a bet and play bigger!

It's really inhumane.

Zhou Ziheng hadn't reacted from the shock yet. Hu Minghui had already thrown the small white jade box to him.

Zhou Ziheng immediately came back to his senses and reached out to catch it steadily.

Hu Minghui smiled: "I don't need this thing either, since you helped me win, I'll give it to you." ”

Zhou Ziheng's hand couldn't help but tremble, and he immediately excused himself: "Then how can I do it, how can I ask for such a valuable thing?"

Xue Weifeng didn't know if he was in a bad mood because he lost, or if he was really in pain, so he said impatiently: "Let you take it, you just take it, and talk more nonsense." ”

Zhou Ziheng heard this, and hurriedly turned the white dew into frost and put it in the space ring. Although he may not be able to use it when he advances, it is always good to be prepared. Besides, even if he doesn't need it, there are Cao Lianyou, Wang Xiaotian and others.

Thinking of this, he was secretly glad. Thanks to Hu Minghui's lack of apprentices, otherwise this good thing would not have been his turn.

Hu Minghui and Zhang Zijing are rare outliers in the cultivation world for thousands of years. The talent and qualifications of the two are not too outstanding, and they have no family or sect guidance.

However, with two sets, they were not even considered medium-grade, and they stumbled all the way with extremely shallow cultivation cheats, and they were extremely lucky to be promoted to the eighth-level grandmaster, creating a myth in the cultivation world.

And it's a myth that can't be replicated.

Because, since they were promoted to the eighth level of the Grandmaster, I don't know how many cultivation sects, families, and cultivators have carefully studied all their experiences, created all the conditions, and copied their models, but none of them have succeeded, and at most they have stopped at the fifth level of the high level.

The two also knew that their success was extremely accidental, so they resolutely refused to accept apprentices.

In their own words, it is, "How can I teach others before I understand it?" ”

Therefore, they have become the only eighth-level grandmasters who have not accepted disciples for thousands of years.

Zhou Ziheng just thanked him, and four more figures flew in the sky. They chose to land farther away and hiked up the hill as a sign of respect for the five Force Grandmasters.

The four people who came, Zhou Ziheng, all knew each other. One is Xuanying. One is Chen Qijin. One is Ma Yi. There was also a diminutive old man with an eight-inch dry tobacco pouch in his mouth.

This old man is the famous "green wolf" Tuoba Lev in the north. Strictly speaking, the land under their feet was Tuobarev's territory. He's the head snake of the earth.

However, the five strong dragons are here, and the real head snake has to be obediently arranged.

The four of them greeted the five Force Grandmasters in turn.

The three old guys who played chess, still immersed in the chess game, waved their hands one after another, asking them to go to Xue Weifeng and Hu Minghui.

Xue Weifeng and Hu Minghui exchanged glances. Then, he stood up and said to the five: "Time is pressing, I won't say more polite words." This is the third day, and the five waves of beast tides have passed. Ms. Hyunyoung, could you please tell us about the fence defense system? ”

Xuanying nodded at Xue Weifeng, and then said to everyone: "At present, the energy reserves of the fence system have been consumed by thirty-seven percent. There were 126 new damage points, mainly in some remote and unoccupied areas. Judging by the current data, the situation is more optimistic than last time. ”

Xue Weifeng said: "I remember last time, at the end of the third day, the consumption of energy reserves has exceeded 40%. Why is it a three-percentage point reduction this time?"

Xuanying said: "I checked the system records and found that there were people, and the automatic rapid-fire gun firing method was improved to reduce ammunition consumption. Moreover, this time there are more nodes that are manually stationed, and these people will use rapid-fire guns, which reduces energy consumption accordingly. ”

Xue Weifeng thought for a while, looked at Zhou Ziheng and said, "This is the reason why you are here, right?"

Zhou Ziheng nodded and said, "Back to Xue Shuai, that's exactly the case." Here's the thing. ”

Zhou Ziheng briefly told the story of the incident. just concealed the dispute between him and Xuanying, as well as the betrayal of Qian Yuntang, the second secretary of the Inspection Yuan.

Xue Weifeng was very surprised when he heard this, and said, "That little guy named Wang Xiaotian can actually operate a rapid-fire cannon manually?"

A rapid-fire cannon is not a bow and arrow, anyone can draw a bow and shoot an arrow. Of course, whether the shooting is accurate or not, let's not do it for the time being. A good archer is more difficult to train than a good sniper.

Operating rapid-fire guns requires systematic learning and practice. Even if you don't learn how to maintain and maintain, just learn how to aim and fire, and let an experienced veteran teach it a day's work.

Moreover, this is still the current artillery. The rapid-fire guns of the fence defense system are all from the old era, and the operation method of the current artillery is completely different.

So Xue Weifeng was very surprised, how did Wang Xiaotian, a teenager, learn to operate a rapid-fire cannon without a teacher?

Zhou Ziheng knew very well what Xue Weifeng was thinking. He was afraid that Xue Weifeng would see the clues, so he restrained himself, glanced at Xuanying's strong impulse, and said, "That's right." Xiao Tian, this kid does know how to operate rapid-fire guns. ”

"Including me, the people in the Inspectorate are from his church. This kid has a natural love for tinkering with machinery, and can often figure out how to get it at a glance. ”

"Hmm. Xue Weifeng didn't continue to ask, nodded, and said, "Anyway, the situation is more optimistic than last time." The energy consumption of the fence defense system was reduced, and the artillery and ammunition supply of the northern border guards also entered the designated positions in advance. ”

"Early tomorrow morning, the Northern Border Guards will send guides to some areas to guide the firing of artillery. We hope that you will cooperate and keep them safe. Shaotang, come here. ”

Lin Shaotang, who was wearing a general's uniform, was like a soldier, holding a rolled map in his hand, running over quickly, standing still, and saluting Xue Weifeng.

Xue Weifeng returned the salute and said to everyone: "This is the commander of the Northern Frontier Army, General Lin Shaotang." He was also the commander-in-chief of this artillery support. Let me tell you about the deployment of firepower. ”

Lin Shaotang saluted everyone, then unfolded the map, held one side with one hand, released the force slightly, and made the map stand in the air, and said: "Everyone, where the bottom red line is located is the fence protection system. ”

"The eleven black areas above are the artillery positions. An artillery regiment is deployed in each position. One artillery regiment is armed with 54 heavy guns. As for the area covered by artillery fire, the depth of coverage is from 20 to 10 kilometers with extended-range shells, and 50 kilometers horizontally, which is about 500 square kilometers. ”

Xue Weifeng said: "What Commander Lin said is the ideal state, due to the limitations of the terrain, there will actually be a lot of places that cannot be covered by artillery, and the artillery can only hit ground targets, and cannot do anything against air targets." So, the rest is up to you. ”

Everyone looked at the areas marked on the map and looked down in thought.

Zhou Ziheng pondered for a moment in his heart, first pointed to an area, and said: "At present, the people of the inspection institute have settled here, here, here, and here, four towers. If you have any towers left, you can support up to one more. ”

When Zhou Ziheng calculated, he also counted the tower occupied by Qian Yuntang. He did this because Qian Yuntang's betrayal was the biggest scandal of the inspection court in recent years, and once it broke out, the inspection yuan would seriously damage its reputation.

If the tower occupied by Qian Yuntang is included in the scope of the inspection institute, outsiders will not come here again, which reduces the probability of this secret being leaked.

Ma Yi continued: "I have a good relationship with some commercial firms, and we can settle in two. The location is ......"

Xue Weifeng interrupted Ma Yi and said to everyone: "You must first be clear that entering the house is not just about entering it and shooting with rapid-fire guns. ”

"Whoever settles in this tower has a responsibility to protect it from the onslaught of monsters. Especially the five waves of impact the day after tomorrow, almost all of them are melee combat, no one can help you, if you don't fight hard, you die. Don't be greedy and chew too much. ”

Ma Yi's face was a little unbearable. He knows best what his strength is. Although he and those people in the business house were numerous, not many of them could show their hands, especially cultivators above level six, who could count them on one hand. The two towers were really struggling.

However, he is the kind of person who "dies for money, and birds die for food". If he didn't have a chance, he couldn't sleep well. So, instead of retracting what he had said, he pointed to the two towers that he had decided to occupy and retreated.

Xuanying smiled slightly, pointed to the westernmost tower, and said, "I don't have many hands here, so I can only take care of one tower." ”

Zhou Ziheng knew that she was obviously modest. Xuanying herself is a seventh-level Force Master level. There is also a second general manager, at least at the advanced level of the Force Masters, or even the seventh level beginner. Although Mo Li is young, he is also a sixth-level teacher. There are several fifth-level masters on her side, and it is more than enough to guard a tower.

However, Zhou Ziheng didn't have much to say. At this time, it's good to try to have less entanglements with Xuanying.

While Xuanying was talking, Chen Qijin quietly turned his head and glanced at Chen Yiping, who was playing chess.

Chen Yiping was the former sect master of the Sword Pavilion. According to the usual practice, after being promoted to the eighth level of the Grandmaster, he resigned as the Sect Master. But the important affairs of the Sword Pavilion still need to look at his face.

Chen Qijin is also used to it, when this clan brother is present, before talking and doing things, take a look at this clan brother's face.

But this time, Chen Yiping didn't even raise his head, let alone give Chen Qijin, what a hint.

Chen Qijin pondered for a moment and said, "We don't have many people here, so let's settle in the two towers." ”
