Found such a great place. The founder of the Lotus Sect stayed here.

After cultivating here for several years, he found this lotus-shaped jade box in the center of the bottom of the lake, which was the jade box containing the phantom crystal that Hao Hongliang had put away just now.

It is precisely because the mysterious jade box is lotus-shaped that he named this lake Lotus Lake.

The strange thing is that this jade box is hidden deep at the bottom of the lake, and it can only be viewed from a few tens of meters away, and it is impossible to get close to it at all, let alone take it away.

The founder of the mountain has cultivated here. After returning to China, he founded the Lotus Sect, and the mysterious lotus-shaped jade box became the treasure of the Lotus Sect.

Therefore, guarding this jade box, which is not known to outsiders, here has become the secret and duty of the heads of the Lotus Sect for generations.

Over the years, the successive heads of the Lotus Sect have used illusion to train the birds and beasts of prey on this island, and the effect is very good. Not only are they more ferocious and abnormal, but they also obey the orders of their masters.

Once the Lotus Lake is invaded by foreign enemies, they will take advantage of the illusion here and automatically attack it in groups, invincible. So, apart from the group of pirates, there were no other outsiders on this island.

After listening to the Lotus Ancestor's narration, Hao Hongliang completely understood the secret of this island. What kind of devil's zone is there, but it is.

"Old man, what are you going to do next?"

For this Lotus Ancestor, Hao Hongliang still felt a little indebted in his heart. After all, he took away the treasure of other people's town religion.

It is estimated that without the illusion crystal, the effect of cultivation will be greatly reduced. If it's not good, you can't even keep the existing cultivation. It is still necessary to be polite and caring to others.

"Otherwise, I'll send you back to Lotus Mountain. My aircraft is very fast. ”

"Immortals, poor roads do not return to Lotus Mountain. ”

The Lotus Ancestor hurriedly bowed to Hao Hongliang and said very sincerely:

"It is a great opportunity to meet the immortals today, and listen to the teachings of the immortals before and after the saddle of the saddle. ”

The meaning of the Lotus Ancestor is already obvious. He just wanted to worship under Hao Hongliang's door, but because his seniority was too low, and because his cultivation was also a little too low, he couldn't say it clearly.

Hao Hongliang also saw the embarrassment of the Lotus Ancestor, and he also had the intention to leave him behind. I hesitated and weighed how to deal with this matter.

"Master, this old man is not bad. Just leave him here, and I'll pass on some illusions to him. It's okay for him to help Gang Master Liu protect this island. ”

Menghu sent a message to Hao Hongliang in a very timely manner.

"Okay. Lotus Ancestor, you can worship my Dream Tiger as your teacher, and continue to stay here to cultivate in the future.

Wait a minute, I'll ask Gang Master Liu to build some houses by this lake and use them as a cultivation base.

You have to take care of the natural environment here, and I'll ask Zhixian and the other five to come and help you. ”

Hao Hongliang thinks Menghu's idea is very good. Leaving the Lotus Ancestor here is indeed a good way, that is, it can keep the secret of the Lotus Lake, it can also be used as a cultivation base, and it can also defend this island from being violated.

"Thank you, Immortals!"

The Lotus Ancestor immediately bowed to Hao Hongliang to the end. His heart was too excited, and he was also very satisfied with Hao Hongliang's arrangement. Then, kneeling down in front of Menghu in a proper manner, he said loudly:

"Apprentice, meet the master!"

Menghu was also not polite, and stood there with a big grin, accepting the three bows and nine bows of the Lotus Ancestor as a matter of course.

"Very good! I see that your skills are not bad, so I will pass on a set of real illusion techniques to you. This set of exercises is not worse than my Phantom Dragon Second Brother's illusion technique, you have to practice it well in the future, don't embarrass me. ”

Saying that, Menghu took the Lotus Ancestor to the other side to confer meritorious apprentices.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Menghu apprentices had nothing to do during this period, Hao Hongliang called Mu Gang and Liu Jinzhong, who were still waiting in the distance, over.

"Brother Mu, Gang Leader Liu, the problem here has been completely solved. That devil is the old man, and he's here to pretend to be a ghost.

He is the head of the Lotus Sect, and his name is Lotus Ancestor. Now he's a teacher from my puppy. ”

Hao Hongliang pointed to the Menghu master and apprentice who was training in the distance, and said to Mu Gang and Liu Jinzhong.

"Master, that Lotus Ancestor's cultivation is not low!" Mu Gang said in surprise.

"Brother Mu, his cultivation has just entered the second layer of the prefecture level, and his skills are far worse than yours. ”

Hao Hongliang said to Mu Gang disapprehantly.

"No wonder this place is called the Devil's Zone by the world, it turns out that this Lotus Ancestor is a ghost here.

Hao Ye, it's okay now. The danger is gone, and we can confidently and boldly engage in construction. ”

Liu Jinzhong said to Hao Hongliang very excitedly.

"Gang Leader Liu is right. He made it all up single-handedly, and now there is no danger on this island.

Oh yes. You two are tired after running for so long, come with me to eat some roast python meat. ”

As he spoke, Hao Hongliang waved his hand and brought Mu Gang and Liu Jinzhong into the space of Xiao Mengding

When I entered the space of Xiao Mengding, I saw Zhang Zhonghe and those mercenary coaches eating lively and full of oil.

Not to mention, the group of mercenaries roasted python meat was amazing, the snow-white python meat was roasted and browned, stained with oil dripping out, and the fragrance was fragrant.

Hao Hongliang had a great appetite, picked up a large string, and started moving.

"Do you have any wine? ”

Liu Jinzhong savored the roasted python meat while stretching out his hand to ask Zhang Zhonghe for it.

"You old man should take it easy, this is a seventy-two degree spirit. ”

Zhang Zhonghe handed a military kettle beside him to Liu Jinzhong and instructed with concern.

"Okay, thank you, Captain Zhang! My favorite is this spirit. Hao Ye, can you take a bite?"

Liu Jinzhong smiled and unscrewed the lid of the military kettle, and respectfully handed it to Hao Hongliang with both hands.

"Hmm, hmm......" Hao Hongliang's mouth was stuffed with python meat, and he puffed out his eyes and shook his hand at Liu Jinzhong.

Seeing that Hao Hongliang didn't want it, Liu Jinzhong handed it to Mu Gang again. Mu Gang didn't want to drink either, so he simply drank it himself. A sip of wine, a sip of roasted python meat, and squinted his little eyes very enjoyably.

It stands to reason that with Hao Hongliang's current cultivation, he can not eat, but he can't resist the temptation of this deliciousness, and he is full of oil and addicted, and at the same time, he also thinks of his grandmother Qin Yihua's grilled yellow croaker.

"If this python meat is roasted by grandma, it will definitely be more delicious......

After gobbling up, Hao Hongliang took the lead in stopping his hand. He looked at the piles of python meat like a hill, and estimated that he had eaten less than one thousandth, and there were too many left.

"Captain Zhang, move the rest of the python meat to the warehouse over there and freeze it. Save it for later and eat it slowly. ”

"Okay, I'll let them do it right away. ”

Zhang Zhonghe agreed to direct the porter.

Hao Hongliang looked at the group of mercenaries carrying python meat there, turned his head and said to Mu Gang:

"Brother Mu, please have time to give them some food to come in. It's not enough to just eat python meat. ”

"That's fine. Master, don't worry, I've got all the logistics for them. ”

Mu Gang replied immediately.

Immediately afterwards, Hao Hongliang said to Mu Gang:

"The cultivation of Head Zhang and these coaches is too low, and they must be raised to the level of internal strength as soon as possible.

Brother Mu, how about you take them as apprentices and pass on the exercises on my behalf? The environment here is particularly suitable for cultivation, and if you have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort, I will also take the time to groom their bodies. ”

"Master, on behalf of Captain Liu, thank you, Master!"

Mu Gang stood up excitedly and bowed to Hao Hongliang to thank him.

Before this, Zhang Zhonghe had asked Mu Gang to be his teacher. But Mu Gang didn't dare to make his own decisions, and he didn't take the initiative to open his mouth to Hao Hongliang.

Now Hao Hongliang suddenly mentioned it, including the two hundred mercenaries, which was really unexpected by him and made him overjoyed.

"Well, no thanks. Let Gang Master Liu preside over the apprenticeship ceremony for you, and you can go and get busy. I'll go out and see how they are doing. ”

※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※

On the shore of Lotus Lake, Menghu had already finished teaching the Lotus Ancestor the exercises, and now he was guiding him to practice the exercises. Seeing Hao Hongliang coming, he jumped into Hao Hongliang's arms and said to the Lotus Ancestor:

"The ships in the sea over there are all their own families, follow us to take a look, you have to take more care of them here. ”

The Lotus Ancestor nodded to Menghu very obediently, and knelt on the ground to meet Hao Hongliang, the old master. Then he got up and followed Hao Hongliang to the small town on the shore.

General Hausbus, General Hornbow, Rothbersa, Richena and others were anxiously looking into the mountains.

Unexpectedly, Hao Hongliang appeared in front of them after a few flashes, followed by an old Taoist wearing a light gray Taoist uniform with a white beard.

Hao Hongliang very solemnly introduced the Lotus Ancestor to everyone. Then he waved his hand and dragged Liu Jinzhong, who was drunk in a daze, out of the space of Xiaomengding, and continued to say to them very seriously:

"Gang Leader Liu, General Hao, you have to cooperate well with the Lotus Ancestor and try to maintain the original ecology here.

Then there is the need to build some houses by the Lotus Lake as soon as possible, enough for four or five hundred people, and I will be useful in the future.

However, you should not engage in excessive development and construction, and it is best to keep this place in its original flavor. ”

"Hao Ye, don't worry. We are also unwilling to destroy the mountains and rivers, grass and trees here. Be sure to find the world's top design team to do a good job of planning. ”

Liu Jinzhong held Liu Ming's shoulder with one hand, patted his chest with the other and said to Hao Hongliang.

"Well, that's for the best. Gang Leader Liu, do you want to stay here, or do you want to come with me?"

Hao Hongliang said to Liu Jinzhong with satisfaction.

"Master Hao, General Hausbus and I are staying here. Let Liu Ming go back with you, and help my eldest sister Meng take care of his little mothers and his mothers-in-law. Okay?"

Liu Jinzhongqiang opened his small eyes and said to Hao Hongliang cautiously.

"Okay, that's it. I'll find you a few more shipwrecks on the way back, and I'll set up a shipwreck museum as soon as possible.

General Housebus, who of you here knows how many shipwrecks there are in that area? Find me someone who understands. ”

Hao Hongliang turned his head to General Housebus and asked.
