[Chapter Word Count:4339Last Updated:2014-12-1010:15:01.0]

"Commander Ji's words are too much. Zhang Tiandao said loudly: "If it is just because of folk rumors, the whole territory will be banned? Zhang thinks it's very inappropriate!"

Xuanyuan Zhan said even more sharply: "Elder Zhang is right! The whole territory is banned? That folk will be panicked, and it will be difficult to settle for all kinds of operations. Countless folk martial arts sects who make a living from hunting in the barbarian forests will break out into large-scale friction with our defenders, and a large number of frightened people will flock to Anseong from all directions! Hey, it's almost winter. When the time comes, Anseong will be overcrowded, and it will not be possible for you to distribute the winter supplies and food and salaries by your commander-in-chief? Not to mention the panic caused by the refugees, epidemics, and so on!"

As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves suddenly: "Just for the sake of mere rumors, your Great Commander Ji wants to cause the entire Ancheng people to ignore it? That is so laborious and costly, disturbing the cultivation of the sect Immortal Elder, can you take this responsibility by the Great Commander Ji?! It's ridiculous! Childish!"

Ji Tianyuan frowned and said, "I can go to investigate and collect evidence first, and then report to the sect after I have the evidence." As for sending battalions to villages and towns to guard Wuzong, they can use the name of dispatching garrisons to hide from the people. As for the ban on the barbarian forest, dozens of people have just disappeared, and it is normal for my Ancheng Unified Guard Battalion to seal the forest for investigation, as long as there is no mention of the demon beast tide or the evil demon scattered cultivation, then there will be no so-called panic. ”

"Are you an idiot when the people in the territory are all idiots?" Xuanyuan Zhan sneered: "Even the demon beast tide and the evil scattered cultivation theory of your great commander Ji are still heard from the folk rumors, and now your every move is tantamount to confirming this rumor to the people!" As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Wan Yezi above: "What does Elder Wan think Zhan said?"

"Heh," Wan Yezi smiled: "Reasonable." ”

Xuanyuan Zhan was very satisfied with Wan Yezi's attitude. In fact, since Wan Yezi became the Great Elder, no matter how he Xuanyuan Zhan seized power and grabbed power, this Great Elder Wan never had a word of opposition, and he was completely submissive. Of course, the more he was like this, the more Xuanyuan Zhan didn't dare to take him lightly. He could see that this Great Elder was an old fox, and he was also an old fox with a deep city government!

However, since he wants to pretend to be stupid, let him pretend to be good, and he will be happy to be idle. No matter how this Wan Yezi is hibernating, no matter what kind of opportunity he is waiting for, as long as Nanli Ancestor arrives in Ancheng, then this opportunity for Wan Yezi to wait left and right will probably never be able to wait.

Ji Tianyuan said in a deep voice: "Then do you want me to sit back and ignore such a tragic situation in the territory, or wait until a bigger disaster strikes to make amends?!"

"Didn't Commander Ji say that he wanted to verify?" Xuanyuan Zhan said with a smile: "Then General Lao will take the lead to verify it." If you get real evidence, whether it is reported to the sect or banned from the whole territory, Xuanyuan Zhan will definitely support it to the end! However, now that the New Year is approaching, the security in Ancheng cannot be lost, and it is not allowed to transfer manpower from the city camp. What's more, it's just an investigation and evidence collection, and it doesn't take too many people. If Commander Ji wants to go to the Barbarian Forest to verify this matter, let's bring his own personal guards!"

Ji Tianyuan's face sank, and he was about to speak, when Zhang Tiandao and other elders next to him echoed: "Every year, there are many small nights, chickens, dogs and thieves in the city. Elder Xuanyuan was right, it was indeed a shortage of manpower, and no more manpower could be transferred. ”

Ji Tianyuan looked at Wan Yezi, only to hear Wan Yezi slowly speak: "All the elders are right, the New Year is approaching, and the responsibility of camp defense in the city is indeed heavier. Fortunately, at the end of the year in previous years, all battalions in the city were also deployed and rotated, and they were not all in battle. This year, let all battalions work more overtime, and the shifts should be more diligent, so that the manpower of a battalion will not affect the overall situation. Commander Ji also has to consider the overall situation, the strength of one battalion is acceptable, but the four battalions are indeed too many. If the Commander thinks it's okay, then the matter is settled. ”

The entire outer gate city camp is established, with a total of ten permanent battalions, each with 100 people. Sometimes there will be a certain rotation and expansion of the old and the new, but the permanent garrison force of the entire Anseong outer gate generally hovers around 1,000 to 1,200 people.

There are 100 people in a battalion, which can be regarded as a good combat force, enough to deal with all kinds of problems, besides, Wan Yezi did not specify which battalion it was, so naturally Ji Tianyuan himself selected the best and strongest 100 people! In this way, it is not weaker than the combat strength of bringing two or three martial arts battalions. And Wan Yezi usually doesn't express his opinions, but as soon as he opened his mouth at this time, it was the tone that could not be refuted and directly gave orders, even if it was Xuanyuan Zhan and others, he couldn't adapt to it for a while, and he actually forgot to refute it.

"Elder Xie!" Ji Tianyuan responded with a fist clenched, knowing that under the pressure of the elders of the Manwai Gate, it was already the limit for Wan Yezi to provoke a battalion for him in such a compromise, and while those elders were still at this time for Wan Yezi to suddenly intervene in the matter and did not react, the matter was settled.

Xuanyuan Zhan glanced at Wan Yezi meaningfully, and then looked at Zhang Tiandao, and the two laughed silently.

This new Great Elder seems to want to fight back, but he is not willing to be just a puppet.

Hehe, but what can it be? Whether Ji Tianyuan takes his own guards or takes this battalion of men and horses to the barbarian forest, he is just going to Nanli Ancestor's men to die! That is the innate cultivation of the evil way, and the ancestor alone is enough to destroy this 100-person battalion plus Ji Tianyuan ten times and eight times, not to mention that there are hundreds of martial arts sect murderers under Nanli Ancestor. It's just a pity that the strength of that battalion of Martial Sects, the property and manpower of the outer gate of Ancheng, Xuanyuan Zhan are all regarded as their own private property, so throwing away a battalion of Martial Sect like this is naturally distressing. However, in order to achieve great things, I don't care about that.

As for Wan Yezi, when the ancestor is done, after coming to Ancheng, no matter what means he Wan Yezi has, he will only be slapped to death!

Coming out of the hall, Wan Yezi heard that Lie Rui was visiting.

For this old friend, Wan Yezi never dared to take the slightest shelf. Laughing and going out, I saw that the old man was drinking tea in the living room of the outer door, and when he saw Wan Yezi coming out, he didn't bother to greet him, so he asked with his head and face: "Lao Wan, I asked you something, don't hide it from me!"

Wan Yezi said with a smile: "Our brothers, what is there to hide." ”

Lie Rui nodded, and asked worriedly: "Recently, there have been a lot of rumors in the city, saying that something big happened to the Poor Barbarian Forest, saying that many Wuzong have disappeared there? Is this true or false? I remember that there is a patrol around the Barbarian Forest at the outer gate of Ancheng, right? Is there any reliable news?"

Wan Yezi said with a smile: "When did Brother Rui also care about the folk rumors and domestic affairs? ”

Lie Rui's eyes widened: "You don't care why I care, you just say if there is such a thing!"

"Heh......" Wan Yezi groaned slightly: "This is indeed the case." ”

"Ah?!" Lie Rui was even more anxious than just now: "I heard those people say, it seems to be a tide of demon beasts?

Wan Yezi shook his head and said, "I just mentioned this matter in today's outer door meeting. But it's basically just rumors, and there is no real evidence. As far as we know, there are about dozens of martial arts sects missing, and one mountain tribe has been slaughtered, but it is impossible to tell whether it is human or demon beasts. He paused, and then said, "However, the Commander of the Outer Gate Ji has already been ordered to lead a battalion of Martial Sects to the Barbarian Forest for an in-depth investigation, and I believe that news will come back soon." I said, Brother Rui, this is not like you, you never care about these things. Is something wrong? Let's hear and see if my brother can help. ”

"I really want your help!" Lie Rui said without thinking about it.

If it was something else, even if the medicinal herb shop was bullied by Zhang Tiandao some time ago, he never thought of going to his old friend to complain about his suffering, or counting on this old friend who had just become the Great Elder of the Outer Gate to help him, and he would never even talk about this kind of thing in front of him. After all, he also knew that even though Wan Yezi had become the Great Elder of the Outer Gate, he did not have much real power in his hands, and it was already difficult for him to deal with it in the Outer Gate, so he was naturally unwilling to set up more political enemies for him because of himself or his business and property. But this time is different, for the sake of his nephew and grandson, for the sake of Pan'er, Lao Lierui has no choice but to be shameless.

Brother Rui said bluntly. "Wan Yezi is colorful.

Lie Rui was obviously concerned and confused, and there were some words in his mind that were not good for a while. After talking nonsense, he told Wan Yezi about Liepan's entry into the Wild Forest more than two months ago, and the more he talked, the more anxious he became: "You said that this kid has been gone for more than two or three months, and there is no news about it until now! Before he left, he said that he would go for three or four months, but who would have thought that this would suddenly be a missing person over there! I am going crazy during this time! You help me ......"

Wan Yezileng said: "Xiaopan went to the Poor Barbarian Forest alone, didn't he have all the meridians, you can rest assured?"

He knew that Liepan's meridians were broken more than a year ago, but then he didn't know about Liepan's autonomy and other things, and Lao Lierui didn't tell him. As for the hanging and beating of Xuanyuan on the street, he had already been warned by the Xuanyuan family that all the people who saw the incident that day, and no one dared to publicize the ugly things of the Xuanyuan family. Wan Yezi, the great elder, didn't even have a cronie in the outer gate, and if others didn't say it, he naturally didn't know.

Lie Rui glared and said, "My nephew is a genius! If the meridians are broken or something, he will be cured by himself! When he went to the Barbarian Forest more than two months ago, he was already a third-order martial sect!"

Wan Yezi was secretly surprised when he heard it, he also knew his old friend, the most beloved nephew, he knew it very well, when he lived in Nan'an Town before, he didn't deal with each other a lot, and it belonged to the relationship between the little guy and the like having to seal a big red envelope every New Year's holiday. During this time, he was the Great Elder of the Outer Gate of Shang'an City, and he also used his power to seek medical masters in other places for Liepan. It's just that it hasn't been fruitful, and I haven't mentioned it to my old friends, for fear that it will hurt others.

Lie Rui didn't wait for him to think about it, and continued: "Eh, don't talk this nonsense! Didn't you say that the Xuanyuan Commander was going to the Barbarian Forest to investigate? You give him a breath and let him find a plate by the way! Also, I always feel that this matter is not at ease, Lao Wan, can you get in touch with the Xianyun Sect, aren't you the Great Elder of the Outer Gate of Ancheng?"

"Commander Xuanyuan is no problem there, you give me a portrait of the plate in a while, and I will ask Commander Xuanyuan to pay special attention when he goes to the barbarian forest to investigate. However, on the side of the Immortal Cloud Sect, because the situation we have for the time being is not accurate, even if I report it, it is impossible to get any response......

"Who wants you to report it!" Lie Rui glared and said, "I just want you to help bring a letter!"

Wan Yezi said: "Brother Rui still knows the immortal of the sect?"

"Ah! Just that Ji Changfeng, Ji Daxian Chang!" Lie Rui said anxiously: "You help bring him a letter! He is Pan'er's eldest brother, this little brother has an accident, he doesn't care about being the eldest brother? If Ji Xianchang is willing to come, I will rest assured! Otherwise, such a big barbarian forest, just that Ji Commander brought a hundred people, what can he turn out?"

"Poof!!" Wan Yezi squirted out a mouthful of tea, dumbfounded: "Big, big brother?!"

"Eh, didn't I tell you about it?" asked Liere.

Wan Yezi felt that his brain was a little insufficient: "What to say?"

"Ji Xianchang's matter!"

"I didn't say it. Wan Yezi asked blankly, "What's the matter with Senior Brother Ji?"

Lie Rui scratched his head: "Oh, it was some time ago that I helped to lay a hand in our medicinal herb store...... Anyway, he and Pan'er call each other brothers, and the two brothers are good every day, and the relationship is iron! If you tell him that Pan'er is in danger, I think he will definitely come to help!"

"Brothers, so ......" Wan Yezi only had one feeling, that is, speechless.

Who is Ji Changfeng? The first disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sect's Refining Weapon Palace! Others don't know, but he, who has been an apprentice in the Refining Weapon Hall, knows that in the Refining Weapon Hall, Ji Changfeng, the first disciple, has much more say than many of the elders of the Refining Weapon Hall! That is the level of the true core member of the Immortal Cloud Sect, and he is extremely virtuous! It is not the same level at all as the inner disciple of Zhang Yanyan, the so-called lady of heaven in Ancheng recently!

Moreover, Ji Changfeng is one hundred and fifty or sixty years old this year, and he is good with the boy brother and sister of Lie Pan who are less than twenty?

Wait a minute!

Wan Yezi suddenly remembered. After Ji Changfeng removed the fire poison for himself and left, he went to Nan'an Town to find the mysterious boy who helped him refine a medium-grade magic weapon. Speaking of which......

Wan Yezi suddenly jumped up from his chair: "Brother Rui, the last time you went to suppress the fire poison for me, when I was in the refining kiln, did Xiaopan also go with you?"

"yes. Lie Rui said proudly: "At that time, I didn't know my family's skills, and I said that I would take him to increase his knowledge, and see how I treat people, old man......"

Wan Yezi was so excited that he grabbed Ji Changfeng's hand: "You hide it from me so hard!"

Lie Rui was confused when he heard it, and he didn't say it clearly when he asked, only to see Wan Yezi walking back and forth in the room: "I'll go and explain to Commander Ji right away!" However, it is relatively slow to communicate with the Xianyun Sect, if it is just a quick horse to report, the distance will be more than a month!"

"So slow?" Lie Rui had a bitter face: "Then when the letter arrives, the daylilies will be cold!"

Wan Yezi thought for a moment: "I have stayed in the sect before, and I have seen a very magical communication talisman. Since this Ancheng outer gate is a local office, there should be this kind of Taoist symbol that can immediately contact the sect, but since I took over, all important things in the outer gate have been locked in the warehouse, and only Xuanyuan Zhan, the head of the outer gate, has the key to the warehouse. I'm afraid it's hard to get it...... In this way, on the one hand, I will send someone to the Xianyun Sect to report to Senior Brother Ji on the one hand, and on the other hand, I will try to find a way to get the Dao talisman in the warehouse, and do my best with both methods."
