Chapter 172: Underground Treasure
Three days later, in the early morning, a carriage drove out of the city gate and headed for the direction of Night Dragon City under the congratulations of the Ye family's disciples.
Liu Ruyan and the ghost servant left, refused the retention of the old master Ye Yuanshan, and left the Broken Leaf City, where he had lived for more than ten years.
On the Xiaomen Mountain behind the Ye family's compound, Hong Yuan stood on the top of the mountain and watched the carriage go away, and then went out of the city silently alone. In the Ye family's ranch, Li Shuiniang, Han Chaonan, and the Blood Bat King Hong Bat have been waiting for a long time, and the army of war pets is also ready to set off at any time.
Hong Yuan didn't have the heart to continue to stay in Broken Leaf City, but he didn't go with his aunt Liu Ruyan, but just made an appointment to meet at the Seven Nights Inn, a small inn in Night Dragon City, half a year later.
In a short period of time, so many things suddenly happened, and Hong Yuan wanted to be alone for a while.
"Gang leader, the last batch of supplies has been transported to the dungeon, according to your orders, most of the assets of the Panlong Gang have been transferred to the dungeon, and the assets that can be sold in Shattered Leaf City have basically been sold. The branch altar of Night Dragon City is still under preliminary construction, and there is no improvement for the time being, but there are already a lot of silver taels spent. This is the specific ledger, please take a look at it. ”
Li Shuiniang presented a thick account book with both hands, in the past few days, she sold most of the assets of the Panlong Gang in Broken Leaf City according to Hong Yuan's instructions, strategically withdrew from Broken Leaf City, and turned to focus on operating the dungeon and the Night Dragon City branch altar.
The dungeon is the base camp of the Panlong Gang, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, can accommodate a large number of demon beasts, and is also close to the sea to facilitate access to the sea, with excellent geographical advantages. The Night Dragon City Branch Altar is the future and hope of the Panlong Gang, Broken Leaf City is too small and there is no strategic space, and the Panlong Gang is expected to transform from a small gang to a pivotal overlord in Night Dragon City.
Hong Yuan took the account book, opened it at random and looked at it and returned it to Li Shui Niang, he was not interested in many details, and he also believed in Li Shui Niang, and he did not suspect that he would use people, "No matter how much silver you spend, it is worth it, Li Shui Niang, you can look at the specific situation yourself." I only have one request, I don't want to be good at the beginning of the Night Dragon City Branch, first set up a foothold and then say, from scratch, this is the most important thing. In addition, it is not necessary to be limited to starting from the restaurant or the green building industry, the inn is also good, the flow of people is large, and it is also convenient to hide. Perhaps, we can buy a small inn first, familiarize ourselves with the situation in Night Dragon City, and then slowly plot and expand. ”
"Okay, my subordinates understand. ”
Li Shuiniang nodded, she naturally had a lot of ideas about how to build the branch altar of Night Dragon City, but she didn't dare to act lightly. With Hong Yuan's words, she was relieved that she could show her skills in Night Dragon City.
"Helper, do you really want to leave Shattered Leaf City and not come back?" Han Chaonan asked, a little reluctant.
According to Hong Yuan's arrangement, the Panlong Gang made drastic reforms, compressing from the previous dozen sub-altars to three sub-altars. Li Shui Niang is in charge of the Night Dragon City altar, Du Shorty is in charge of the dungeon, and only he stays in charge of the Broken Leaf City altar. Hong Yuan left, but I am afraid that he will rarely return to Broken Leaf City in the future.
"Let's talk about it later, it's not too early, and I should go. ”
Hong Yuan waved goodbye, got into a carriage carefully prepared by Lishui Niang, and the Blood Bat King Hong Bat personally drove the car, raised the whip and whipped it down, and the two war horses pulled the carriage away. The big fat cat and the three-eyed fox ran after the carriage, and beyond that, there were mighty vampire bats, tomb knife scorpions, and ghost-faced butterflies. In the past few days, the number of vampire bats and tomb knife scorpions has not changed much, but the number of ghost-faced butterflies has increased significantly, with the help of the Butterfly King, Hong Yuan has almost taken away all the ghost-faced butterflies inside and outside Shattered Leaf City, and the number is even larger than that of vampire bats and ghost-faced butterflies.
Seeing Hong Yuan go away, Li Shuiniang and Han Chaonan also left quietly, and they were busy.
The cold wind was blowing, and the Ye family ranch that was lively in the past was quietly cold and depressed, and there was no trace of a demon beast, and all the traces left by the war pet army were all cleared. Only under the eaves of the east wing, a wind chime occasionally jingles.
It was a gift from Ye Rou to Hong Yuan many years ago, and there was a time when Hong Yuan liked to lie in the wing room and listen to the ringing of wind chimes. Now, what I am most afraid of hearing is this ringing, and I don't want to go back to this sad place.
On the vast wasteland, the carriage galloped all the way, sensing the breath of the army of war pets, and the demon beasts along the way hid far away. Occasionally, a caravan or adventurer passing by would stop in the distance, waiting for the overwhelming vampire bats, tomb scorpions, and ghost-faced butterflies to pass away, and then cautiously hit the road.
Before dark, Hong Yuan arrived in Lishui Town, Du Xiaozi waited for a long time, and under his leadership, Hong Yuan once again entered the underground tomb.
After separating from his aunt Liu Ruyan, Hong Yuan was ready to make good use of the half year to cultivate hard, preparing to temper in the endless abyss. Before heading out into the Endless Abyss, see for yourself how the dungeon progresses. After all, this will be the base camp of the Panlong Gang in the future, and it will also be the base of the War Pet Legion until the fragments of the Qi Ten Thousand Beasts Tower are collected and completely repaired.
Compared to the last time I entered, the underground tomb has changed drastically.
With the strong support of the Panlong Gang, Du Xiaozi showed his skills and pulled all the brothers who had robbed tombs and explored with him in the past, and organized a team of nearly 200 people to work hard day and night. Thanks to their efforts, the underground tomb has been transformed into a huge underground city. The entrance is hidden, and there are many trap circles, and inside is a huge underground world, divided into three layers: upper, middle and lower. The first floor is the living area, with a variety of palaces and buildings; the second floor is dedicated to the army of war pets under the command of Hong Yuan, which is divided into the Bat Palace, the Scorpion Hall and the Butterfly Palace, a large area for each demon beast; the third layer is temporarily sealed, and the largest area is not too late to explore and clean up.
"My lord, after probing, we have found an underground river that leads all the way to the vast sea. Next, build an underground dock, and the dungeon will have an outlet to the sea!" Du Xiaozi reported excitedly and took Hong Yuan to visit the huge dungeon.
"Okay, if you need something, just look for Lishui Niang and Han Chaonan. ”
Hong Yuan nodded, understanding the significance of an outlet to the sea for the dungeon. Along the way, the more he looked, the more satisfied he became, Du Shorty was even better than he expected, "Du Shorty, what did you do badly before, you went to rob tombs specifically, it was really condescending, and it was more than enough to be a city lord." ”
"Haha, it's all up to adults to cultivate!"
Du Xiaozi laughed, full of energy. At the beginning, when he was coerced and lured into the Panlong Gang by Hong Yuan, he was still a little reluctant, and now, even if Hong Yuan drove him away, he didn't leave, "By the way, my lord, we also found a huge teleportation array in the dungeon, although it is incomplete, but even the stone slabs laid nearby are at least 100,000 years old, and it is very likely to be an ancient teleportation array that can lead to the outer world in legends!"
"Ancient Teleportation Array?" Hong Yuan was surprised.
Du Xiaozi nodded, "Yes, I have an old brother who likes to study the teleportation array, and he has participated in the construction of the teleportation array of the Night Dragon City Alliance, and he has deep qualifications in this regard. According to him, this teleportation array in the dungeon is very likely to be the legendary ancient teleportation array, as long as it is repaired and a huge amount of spar energy is activated, it can tear through the spatial barrier and go to the outer world!
"Let's go!"
Hong Yuan ordered, he had also heard all kinds of legends of the ancient teleportation array, but he had never seen it yet, and he couldn't help but be excited and look forward to it after listening to Du Xiaozi's words.
With an outlet to the sea, the strategic significance of the dungeon has been greatly improved, and if there is still an ancient teleportation array that can be used, the strategic value is unlimited. When the news spreads, I am afraid that it will cause a crazy robbery by the major forces all of a sudden, and the Hualong Empire, which is 100,000 miles away, will send a dragon blood legion to rob it!
The real treasure does not seem to be a treasure, nor is it a whip, but the underground tomb itself.
Unintentionally, he may have obtained the greatest treasure left by the ancients!
Hong Yuan's heart was excited, and he walked faster and faster.
