In the yellow firelight, the brown wooden door had no doorknob, blocking the way seamlessly.

The moss on the door was lifeless, but the blood-colored skull looked like a cry and a smile, but it looked lifelike.

A meter away from the door, on the skull aisle, a bloody red line was drawn.

The blood was not dry, and the line was very long, reaching the root of the cave wall on both sides that was nearly three meters wide.

Mo Xiaobei was lying outside the red line, his thin upper lip was slightly straight, and his appearance looked very cute.

On the inside of the line, at the foot of the door are written three blood-colored characters with dragons flying and phoenixes dancing:

Don't cross!

Looking around, Yang Yan felt extremely weird, and goosebumps couldn't help but grow on his back.

"Xiaobei, wake up. ”

He squatted down and found that Mo Xiaobei still had a chest heaving, proving that he was still breathing, but he couldn't wake up no matter how he screamed.

After groping around her, no wounds were found, that is, the blood in front of her was not hers.

So whose blood is this?

Yang Yan didn't understand, he set his eyes on the three words "can't be crossed".

These three words are pine and powerful, giving people a sense of endless majesty, and when taken literally, it seems to convey that the red line is not allowed to be crossed.

Yang Yan doesn't believe in evil, so he raises his feet and crosses, but a strange scene appears, no matter how he crosses, he can't cross the red line.

It was as if there was a space hidden in front of the red line, and his foot stepped into it!

But he didn't see any extension of the space at all, and the red line was so palpable!

After several attempts, he confirmed that he could not cross it.

During this time, he always felt that the scarlet skull was laughing, so he poked the skull with a torch.

However, no matter how much you stretch your arms, the torches can't cross the red line!

It's really insurmountable!

It's not that it's not allowed, but it can't be crossed!

There must be a demon when things go wrong, but a broken door is so weird, what will be behind the door, what the hell is the red line, and why did Xiaobei come here, and how did he come here?

Yang Yan really wanted to understand the reason, but now Mo Xiaobei is in a coma, so he can only wait, but he is not in a hurry, anyway, people will wake up sooner or later, and when the time comes, you will know, and the dry well is in the palace, and there will be time to study it in the future.

"Dead skeleton, you wait for this king, sooner or later one day will chop you to burn the fire!"

Yang Yan stretched out his hand and raised his middle finger towards the wooden door, immediately picked up Mo Xiaobei, and walked out without looking back.

In the faint light of the fire, the blood-colored skull grinned like a twist.

..............................

..............................

After coming out of the well, Yang Yan arranged Mo Xiaobei into the side room of the dormitory, which was very close to where he slept.

She can't afford to make any mistakes, the system and the countryside need her.

She still couldn't be woken up, and Yang Yan ordered the maid to guard around the clock.

At the same time, he ordered Cheng to seal the mouth of the dry well in the side hall, thinking that it was not enough, he ordered the side hall to be blocked, and emphasized that except for himself, no one was allowed to enter without permission, otherwise he would be killed.

After doing all this, dusk came quietly, and Assistant Minister Ji Huaan had not yet sent back the news from the Beishan Coal Cave.

In the study, the smoke curls up, and all the luxury.

Yang Yan leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes to relieve the fatigue of a day and a night, he always felt that something was wrong with Beishan, so he ordered Motus to go to protect Ji Huaan.

"Your Highness," at this time, Cheng Han ran in from outside, "The last general has just learned that from last night to now, the recruitment team has recruited more than 100 people!"

"Why is it so much?" Yang Yan leaned forward and propped up his hand on the desk.

Last night, he temporarily set up a recruitment team, and Cheng Han served as the commander-in-chief.

The squad's job is to recruit workers for the firing of cement.

Firing cement is a technical work, and ordinary people have no effect, but burning cement requires a large amount of limestone and clay as raw materials, and mining and transporting these raw materials requires a lot of labor.

Therefore, even if the firing of cement last night was unsuccessful, Yang Yan still started to recruit people to prepare raw materials first.

Cheng Han said that this point is far from enough, Yang Yan needs more, "Cheng Han, send the recruitment notice to the whole country, tell the recruitment team, adopt the performance system of distribution according to work, improve the recruitment rate, and at the same time let them relax the conditions, regardless of men and women, young and old, as long as there is labor, how much to need!"

After a pause, Yang Yan stood up, "The construction of the city wall is urgent, now that Xiaobei has found it, the things I want to develop have a high temperature, and will be put into production soon, you first divide these more than 100 people into two teams, one team to dig clay, and the other team to go to Nanshan to mine limestone!"

"Remember, this king needs a lot of labor, and even if you want to break your head, you have to find me more people!"

"Yes, Your Highness," Cheng Han retreated.

Although he didn't know what the prince wanted to develop and why he needed so many people, looking at the prince's resolute eyes, thinking of the monstrous anger of the prince when the development failed last night, Cheng Han rationally chose to obey orders.

"Zhang Quan!" When Cheng Han walked away, Yang Yan shouted out the door.

Zhang Quan came back from the well, waited outside the door, heard the prince calling himself, and hurriedly entered the study to salute.

He bowed, but did not kneel, because in the morning the prince had said that he was not allowed to kneel again.

"How many years have you been a patrol officer?" Yang Yan sat back in his chair and looked at the visitor with a pleasant face.

"Back to His Highness, the last general has been a patrol officer for eight years. ”

"Well," Yang Yan nodded, "Tell this king about the guards in the border country." ”

Zhang Quan didn't dare to slack off, "Your Highness, there are about 200 soldiers in the entire border and rural area guards, mainly responsible for social order and the production order of the Beishan Coal Mine. ”

"Can you fight?"

"Your Highness, most of the guards are local people, and they have not received professional military training, and the Seventh Army is stationed in the Yangu Fortress, so it is not the turn of the guards to participate in the combat mission!" Zhang Quan was a little embarrassed.

Damn, it turned out to be a group of chengguan for a long time!

How much did this emperor Lao Tzu look down on his fourth son, and actually threw him into such a place!

There is not a single soldier, and the throne of earning a fart!

That old guy didn't intend to let him earn it in the first place, did he!?

Yang Yan was speechless, thinking that no wonder he always saw the guards listless, it turned out that these guys were not soldiers at all!

"Zhang Quan, you are a smart person," Yang Yan looked at Zhang Quan seriously, "I think you also know why this king came to the border countryside, if there is no army, this king will not be able to get everything he wants, and you people who follow my king, it is difficult to become an official and a knight." ”

"Now, this king plans to set up the first army in the border country, are you willing to help this king?"

"The last general is willing to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire for His Royal Highness, and he will never give up!" Zhang Quan stepped forward, he knew that he had provided clues to find Mo Xiaobei in exchange for this opportunity.

He told himself to grasp it and strive to go higher!

"Cheng Gang will be in charge of this matter, you are a local, which people can become the first batch of people in the army, it is up to you to select! In a month, I want to see results. ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"
