Chapter 14 - Ji Muyan's Scheme

That day, when the guild leader deliberately ordered loudly in the most crowded place in the guild to find the three missing Hongmen disciples, he had already noticed the clues, and in the following time, no matter where he went or what he was doing, he seemed to be aware that he was being watched at all times, and at that time, Chi Muyan had already understood the president's intentions, so he continued to quietly make preparations before leaving.

Chi Muyan first borrowed Chu Bai's flying mount to fly back to Phantom Wing City, Feitian's flight speed was much faster than other ordinary flying mounts and airships, which was enough to get rid of those who were following him for a long time, and during this time, Chi Muyan made careful arrangements in Phantom Wing City, in case the Dark Guild attacked Phantom City again when he was not in the city. After all, Chi Muyan was only temporarily serving as the vice president of War Dragon Fang, and his main identity was still the city lord of Phantom Wing City.

Those who were following Chi Muyan rushed to Phantom Wing City just after Chi Muyan had arranged everything. Chi Muyan had never forgotten it, he had already remembered the appearance of the two of them, and seeing them eagerly looking for him when they got off the airship, Chi Muyan felt funny, so he patted Feitian's neck and let it go back to its owner on its own, and then swaggered in front of them and walked onto the airship bound for Sword Spirit Island.

When the airship arrived at Sword Spirit Island, it was noon the day before the meeting of the War Dragon's Fang, and when Chi Muyan stepped down from the airship, he also made a point to confirm whether those people were following, and then summoned his mount, Cloud Lion, to ride up.

The cloud lion was originally the fastest running mounted spirit beast, and in order to prevent the two of them from following him, Chi Muyan also deliberately asked the cloud lion to slow down and walk slowly along the river pretending to be a trainer.

When Chi Muyan arrived at the nearest Luming Village Luming Inn, it was already dark, and when he walked into the inn, he found that the inn was extremely deserted, with only a few merchants sitting by the window drinking and chatting.

Chi Muyan walked into the inn and found a place to sit down, and the shopkeeper immediately stepped forward and asked earnestly, "Is this guest officer sharpening or staying in the hotel?"

Chi Muyan ordered a few things to eat first, asked for a guest room, and then asked the shopkeeper: "Why is this Lvming Village suddenly so deserted, it wasn't like this last time I came, I remember that there are jugglers dancing dragons and lions in the village." ”

Hearing Chi Muyan's words, the shopkeeper's face immediately changed, he cautiously glanced around, leaned into Chi Muyan's ear and whispered: "This guest officer doesn't know anything, this Sword Spirit Island is not peaceful now, just a few days ago, the Dark Guild gang didn't know what means they used, they actually went to the Spirit Sword Mountain, and slaughtered the entire Hongmen, and even the Sword Saint Master Hong died." The other five islands are guarded by the Wolf Emperor and the Three Great City Lords, and the ancient ruins are also sealed. ”

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper quietly pointed to the merchants sitting by the window, "Now only the kind of businessmen who want money and don't want to die dare to run around, and there are hard-working people like us who want to run and have no place to run, so we can only stay here and continue to live a frightened life." ”

After listening to this, Chi Muyan took a sip of tea and said to the shopkeeper: "I heard that the Dragon Tooth will hold a plenary meeting tomorrow, and the president is from Hongmen, so he shouldn't ignore it, I think this place will soon return to its former liveliness." ”

The shopkeeper just shook his head and sighed, and said "I hope so" and went into the kitchen to serve the food, Chi Muyan drank the tea, and suddenly understood another purpose of the president sending him to Sword Spirit Island.

This Jianling Island is the largest of the seven floating islands, located in the center of all floating islands, and the real estate materials are extremely rich, has always been a trade distribution center for all kinds of commodities, here is not like other floating islands with the main city and well-trained guards, more than 30 large and small chambers of commerce of the daily business security and the safety of the people all rely on Hongmen, and now Hongmen is slaughtered, Jianling Island has lost its only shelter, the most prone to turmoil and panic is the people's hearts. If the people's hearts are chaotic, the world will be chaotic, this point Chi Muyan knows better than anyone else, the current Sword Spirit Island is like Phantom Wing City when he just took over as the city lord two years ago, what he needs most is a stable environment that allows the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and Chi Muyan happens to have a lot of experience in dealing with this issue, which is also one of the purposes for the president to send him to Sword Spirit Island.

Chi Muyan ate the food brought by the shopkeeper, and couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "The president is really scheming." ”

At this moment, a curly horned sheep to be slaughtered suddenly came out of the kitchen, and several sturdy guys held ropes and thick nets to catch it back to the back kitchen, but it was overturned to the ground by its rampage, and then rushed to Chi Muyan who was sitting and eating in anger.

Seeing this situation, several businessmen by the window exclaimed and asked Chi Muyan to dodge quickly, but Chi Muyan calmly put the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, and a staff inlaid with gems appeared in his right hand at some point, and the tip of the staff was lightly touched on the ground, and a green point of light on the ground gradually expanded, and then many rope-like vines grew out of the green light, and the curly-horned sheep was firmly entangled.

Everyone present froze in place for a long time when they saw this scene, and Chi Muyan just put away his staff indifferently, and after asking the shopkeeper which room he lived in, he went upstairs to rest.

Sword Spirit Island is divided into three areas according to the terrain from south to north, the southernmost is the Royal Dragon Forest, due to the low-lying terrain, there are both pine forests and cypresses such as yin, and there are trickling volleys of silver waterfalls, it is the most pleasant area of the climate and environment of Sword Spirit Island, and it is also the most important timber production area. Out of the Dragon Forest, you have to pass through the Black Forest, and then over the Dragon Mountain, you will arrive at the Lonely Village, which is the starting point for entering the desert region rich in all kinds of metal minerals and gemstones. Out of the lonely village is the endless Manman yellow sand, and in the center of the desert there is a bay of clear jasper lake, and a short distance north is the most prosperous trade area in the desert - Tumen Inn. Out of the Tumen Inn and then go north for a while, the wind and sand will be replaced by strange peaks and strange stones, here is the hilly area at the junction of the desert and the Shuiyue Plain, through this area, and then pass through the valley, you will arrive at the Shuiyue Plain, where there are many birds and animals, the Chamber of Commerce is also the most concentrated, is the main fur trading area.

Early the next morning, Chi Muyan first asked the shopkeeper to find him a detailed topography of the Sword Spirit Island and the distribution map of the Chamber of Commerce, and then after a careful look, he circled and marked a few points on the map, and at the same time asked the shopkeeper about some recent rumors and miscellaneous matters in a casual tone, and then set off from Luming Village to the largest chamber of commerce in the Yulonglin area-the Royal Forest Leopard.

Since the shopkeeper found the map for Chi Muyan, he has been standing beside him, watching him chat with him about some miscellaneous things that have nothing to do with the map, while writing and drawing on the map with some care, and then put the map away and walked out of the inn.

There were not a few guests in the inn who needed to be greeted, and the shopkeeper was in a panic these days, and he felt that this calm young man must have a lot of background, so he couldn't help but be curious, and chased after Chi Muyan when he walked out of the inn.

"This son knows at a glance that it is not small, dare to ask the name of the honorable surname, is this trip to collect accounts or to pick up the goods? I have heard that Chi Muyan, the young son of General Chi Hongyuan of Phantom Wing City, took over as the city lord at the age of thirteen, and it only took half a year to pacify the turbulent Phantom Wing City, which can be described as a young man, I think you are the same age as the Lord of Chi City, and you are skilled, you must also be the son of a big family, right?"

Chi Muyan turned over and rode on the cloud lion, and smiled calmly at the shopkeeper: "In Xia Chi Muyan, this trip is to collect debts from the Dark Guild gang. ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for an instant, and when the cloud lion disappeared from his sight, he finally reacted, shouting and rushing to the back kitchen, "The shopkeeper! It's terrible! Chi Muyan is here! Our Sword Spirit Island is saved!"

Just as Chi Muyan was sitting leisurely on the cloud lion and walking the two people who had been following him, on the way to the Royal Forest Leopard Chamber of Commerce, he found that after Yun Shi left Luming Village, he did not turn around to Yansong Island, where the Royal Forest Leopard Chamber of Commerce was located, but entered the narrow Rinfeng Canyon.

The cloud lion was originally a psychic beast, and it has been with Chi Muyan since he was a child, so Chi Muyan knew that it would not run around disobediently, and now that it entered the Rinfeng Canyon, it must have noticed something strange that he himself was not aware of, so Chi Muyan continued to be leisurely and let the cloud lion walk forward.

In order not to let the people behind him lose him, Chi Muyan also found a vacant space in the Rinfeng Canyon, while enjoying the warm sunbathing, he took out the dry food he carried with him and had a lunch, and the cloud lion also lay down beside him, turned over and basked his belly.

In the meantime, he also received a spirit letter from Canglan, telling him that the president and Chu Bai were going to take his sister and four other children to Lingjian Mountain for special training tonight, Ji Muyan replied to him with a smile, and drew a funny expression at the end, and then turned those contents into a sparrow with a silver light and let it go.

After lunch, Chi Muyan rode the cloud lion again. Out of the Wind Canyon to the Black Forest, it was almost evening, the cloud lion sniffed all the way to the entrance of a cave, because of the huge size of the cloud lion, can not squeeze into this small cave, can only stand outside the cave entrance anxiously with its paws to slap the ground. Seeing this, Chi Muyan understood the cloud lion's intentions, so he turned over, patted the cloud lion's head, let it guard the entrance of the cave, and bent down into the cave himself.

Chi Muyan bent down and walked through a low and narrow passage at the entrance of the cave, the more he walked in, the more open the cave walls on all sides, and after walking a little further, Chi Muyan saw that a huge cave that had been artificially chiseled appeared inside the cave, and there were several dark blue fluorescent lamps hanging on the four walls of the cave.

In the cave, there are rows of cloth bags full of neat stacks, and there is a strange fragrance coming from it, and there are many stone mortars, medicine pestles and medicine mills next to the cloth bags.

This is obviously a processing workshop, and the raw materials are the contents of those cloth bags, so Ji Muyan stepped forward and tore open a cloth bag to see what it was.
