Chapter 822: Doing Things
Lu Yi tossed so much in Xiaoyao City, but Mei Qingzhu has always ignored it, since the last time the two had an awkward quarrel, Mei Qingzhu has been staying in the soul storage stone, Lu Yi tried to ease the atmosphere with her several times, but Mei Qingzhu pushed it off on the pretext that she was a little tired recently, and she didn't even respond to Lu Yi to build a new residence to ask for her opinion. This also made Lu Yi feel a little sad in his heart, he had been with Mei Qingzhu for so many years, although he had been noisy and noisy, but he had also developed the habit of relying on each other, and suddenly there were fewer people around him who were talking to him, and Lu Yi really felt a little empty.
After the new residence was completed, Lu Yi couldn't wait to move over, and at the same time, he also transferred four people from the ten people he originally received to take care of his daily life, and carefully selected more than ten seventh-order monks from the Easy Alliance to station to strengthen the defense of the new home. Surprisingly, when Lu Yi moved out of Yanzi Garden, Aoyagi resolutely said that he would go to the new house with Lu Yi to continue to serve him, Lu Yi really had a headache for this, but looking at Aoyagi's eyes full of expectations, grievances and determination, Lu Yi didn't know why he was a little soft-hearted for a while. He left without saying anything, but early the next morning, Aoyagi appeared outside Lu Yi's new house, she bit her lip and didn't say a word, neither going in nor leaving, just standing at the door, attracting the attention of many passers-by. Lu Yi patted his forehead with a headache after knowing it, and after thinking about it for a while, he came to the door in person, at this time there were already a lot of people watching the excitement outside, and from time to time someone pointed and said something, seeing Lu Yi come out, Qingliu's eyes suddenly became wet, and his eyes fell down. Lu Yi couldn't see the woman crying, he couldn't help frowning, stepped to Aoyagi's side in two steps, stretched out a hand to pull Aoyagi's soft water, turned his head and walked quickly towards the door. Aoyagi gave up after a slight struggle, and just let Lu Yi lead it, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight. Since that day, Aoyagi has become the housekeeper of Lu Yi's new house, and she has taken care of all of Lu Yi's daily life, and Aoyagi has also become the only special person who is lower than Lu Yi's cultivation but can still stay in Lu Yi's house.
Time flies quickly, a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and there has been no unpleasantness between the Cloud Cliff Pavilion and the Cloud Extinguishing Alliance, but there have been several small situations in its demarcated sphere of influence, except for some "bad elements" who disobey discipline have been cleaned up, and some unknowingly and mistakenly broken into it have been punished, but there is nothing abnormal. The forces closest to the Cloud Cliff Pavilion had been nervously waiting to meet the other party's provocation, but they found that they seemed to be too worried, and they didn't have the slightest intention of provoking themselves.
Assigned by the Alliance Elders' Council, these forces that are affiliated with the Cloud Cliff Pavilion have also secretly sent people into the other party's territory to spy on, and found that the life inside is in order, and the low-level monks and some body practitioners have been grouped and managed in a centralized manner, and only the fifth-order and above are relatively free. All the permanent residents living in the cloud cliff pavilion's sphere of influence are registered, and temporary personnel from outside are also required to explain the purpose of coming here and the number of days they stay, etc., and even some people are constantly tracked during their stay to be able to keep track of their movements.
After this information was fed back to the Alliance, the Council of Elders also took a lot of trouble to study it carefully, but it still didn't understand the purpose of Cloud Cliff Pavilion's approach similar to militarized management, and the matter was over. Until one day a few months later, a group of about twenty people rushed out of the cloud cliff pavilion's sphere of influence in a panic, and when they came to Huixing City, they were stopped by the monks guarding the city. These people were all ragged, scarred, and panicked, and while they begged the monks guarding the city to let them go, they also continued to release their spiritual power to the rear to probe something, as if there was some terrifying existence behind them. Such a suspicious performance naturally attracted the attention of the monks guarding the city, over the years, in order to prevent any changes on the side of the Cloud Cliff Pavilion, the Jiang family has always left a "heavy army" at the city gate facing the direction of the Cloud Cliff Pavilion, and a sixth-order late-stage monk is looking at the group of uninvited guests in front of him very cautiously at this moment. Although the cultivation of this group of people is not too strong, it is not weak, the lowest are all fifth-order cultivators, and the cultivation of the two leading people in front of them has reached the middle of the sixth order, it seems that the injuries on their bodies are caused by fighting with people, and they are not because of the traces of encountering demon beasts and demon beasts. When he saw that the comers were not good, he beckoned a group of monks from the city gate to block them out, and at the same time, he quickly sent a message to the city, and he did not dare to make up his own mind about the matter.
The vote was very anxious, but they didn't dare to break in, and they all kept wandering in place like ants on a hot pot, looking forward to the reaction in Huixing City like a year. The space fluctuated, and a monk from the early stage of spiritual building appeared, and the person who came glanced at the group of monks and asked, "Where did you come from, what happened to the injuries on your body, and why did you go into the city instead of bypassing from outside?"
Seeing that a spiritual monk appeared, this group of people was obviously relieved, and one of the two mid-sixth order monks who took the lead took a step forward, and saluted respectfully to the spiritual monk: "Back to my predecessors, we are a small team, I received an escort mission in Wanda Mansion before, to escort a caravan to Extinguishing Cloud City, it is said that the business to which the caravan belongs took a piece of land in the intercity corridor of Extinguishing Cloud City, and this time I went to send materials to build the city wall. We all walked very smoothly along the way, and even when we entered the territory of Cloud Cliff Pavilion, where the atmosphere was more tense recently, it was quite calm. Just last night, seeing that we were about to cross this area and arrive in the sphere of influence of the Cloud Extinguishing Alliance, the shopkeeper of the caravan didn't know if he had taken the wrong medicine, or felt that it was inconvenient to travel after dark, so he stopped at a small town two thousand miles away on a whim, saying that he had been tired and nervous for several days, and now he could finally complete his mission safely, so he should relax. The shopkeeper is a bold person, this way to our brother's living and eating very good care, we get along very happily, everyone saw that success is imminent, then we are also loose, we found a good restaurant to have a drink, and then each went back to the room to rest.
Who knows, this morning, when we got up to wake up the shopkeeper's departure, we found that we couldn't find the shopkeeper. Now we were nervous, and we were busy looking around in the inn where we lived, but we were surprised to find that not only was there no trace of the shopkeeper, but even the animal cart carrying the materials and a few of his entourages were nowhere to be found! Because it was a post house in the city, not in the wild, we didn't arrange a special person to take care of it last night, so we found the post house as soon as we found out that something had happened, and the post house gave us a dumbfounded reply, saying that this batch of materials was requisitioned by Yunya Pavilion, and at this moment someone had escorted the materials to Yunya Mountain. We still doubt this statement, so we chased down the direction indicated by the post house, and sure enough, a group of men and horses were caught up by us three hundred miles outside the town, the shopkeeper of the caravan and several of his subordinates were tied up on the animal cart carrying materials, and three sixth-order monks with fifty men surrounded around, and the group was moving forward leisurely. Seeing us coming, they looked fearless, and even took the initiative to stop and ask why we were following them. The shopkeeper was very excited when he saw that we had found him, but he was tied up strongly, and his tongue was sealed, and his face was red but he couldn't convey a word. I know that I am on the other party's territory now, so I spoke very politely, just to show our identity and the relationship with the shopkeeper, according to the general rules on the mainland, as long as the other side is not a robber who lives in the world, he must give us an explanation.
Sure enough, the other party also seemed to know about our existence, they just asked knowingly, and the other party took the lead in a sixth-order mid-stage monk, and he spoke in an extremely arrogant tone, just telling us that the batch of materials on the beast cart was requisitioned by them, and they would give it to the merchant after they brought the shopkeeper back, so that our escort mission was completed, and let us go to deliver the task. However, how can the task be completed without the approval of the shopkeeper? Moreover, the shopkeeper has had a very good relationship with us along the way, and now he is obviously not out of intention but has been taken hostage, and we cannot ignore it. So, I asked the other party to remove the restraint on the shopkeeper, and I wanted to listen to the shopkeeper himself and draw a charge for us.
As soon as I finished speaking, the other party became furious, and with a wave of his hand, they asked their people to surround us, and they fought when they disagreed. Although our brothers are few, they are all old partners who have cooperated with each other for many years, and our natural reaction made us put on a defensive posture at the first time. Although the other party was more than twice as many as us, in addition to a sixth-order mid-stage monk who led the team, there were only two sixth-order early-stage monks left who were on the table, and the number of other fifth-order monks was only ten, and the rest were all third-order and fourth-order people, such a lineup was naturally not our opponent, and soon they were subdued by us, but the sixth-order mid-stage monk who took the lead sent a distress signal. We didn't kill them, not even those who seriously injured them, but also took into account the identity of the other party's landlord, after we rescued the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper told us that this time may be in trouble, let us leave him alone and flee for his life, and at the same time gave us the task to draw a guarantee that we have completed the task. He said that he would stay and entangle with the other party for a period of time to drag the other party to come, and it was impossible for the other party to do anything to their people, after all, they were also well-known firms in the mainland, and the other party also had to weigh the consequences. ”
