Chapter 597: The Long River

The next morning, Yan Yin woke up early,

He didn't alarm anyone, but flew into the air to investigate, and then he hunted down nearly thirty huge beasts and brought them back to their camping place.

During this period, the big head and several of their martial kings, Su Yanying and Xia Hanqing all woke up, and under Yan Yin's orders, the five of them did not disturb the others, but took advantage of the fact that everyone was still not awake, and helped to skin and clean the corpses of the strange beasts that Yan Yin brought back.

It wasn't until everyone was almost done that the soldiers woke up one by one,

The big head told the soldiers to get some dry wood, and then began to roast meat for breakfast.

I have to say that eating half-cooked meat in such an environment is indeed a test of people's surnames.

Fortunately, most of Yan Yin's soldiers have followed him to fight against foreign beasts in the border city of thousands of miles, and in that period, although Yang Er's logistics army is responsible for supplying the food of the whole army, but the conditions are limited after all, and the food and drink are all like that, so I have been used to it for a long time.

Soon, everyone had their fills and set off.

"Big head, you and the old man lead the way in front, Ah Er, Ah San, Ah Si, the three of you sit at the back of the team, Uncle Hanqing, you, Miss Shen and Mrs. Nangong are accompanying above, and by the way, help us pay attention to the topography and the surrounding environment. Yan Yin commanded, "Yan Ying and I will show the way in front, and before the army leaves, extinguish all the fires." ”

"Yes, Lord. After receiving Yan Yin's orders, the big heads immediately took action,

The unburned and dried fire was strangled with a trickle of water, and then according to Yan Yin's order, the army began to march towards the depths of the 100,000 mountains.

"I've already investigated just now, and there is no trace of General Hou Chi within a radius of three thousand miles. Standing on the white lady, Su Yanying said to Yan Yin beside her, "However, according to my judgment, General Hou Chi entered from the west of our location, that is, the closest place to the western frontier, so we have to go to the southwest of the 100,000 mountains, so that it is possible to find them." ”

Nodding, Yan Yin said, "In that case, then do as you say." ”

Looking down, Yan Yin said loudly, "The whole army listens to the order, takes our location as the center, and goes southwest." ”

Immediately, the army began to move,

This time, there is no need to open mountains and destroy forests like when I was in Western Xinjiang, so although we are in a wild place, everyone is very fast to travel through these 100,000 mountains.

"By the way, what did you do with those two barbarians of the Winged Feather Clan yesterday. Standing on the white lady with a few wings, Yan Yin looked around the surrounding environment, and then said to Su Yanying beside her, "With your surname, you don't like blood, but yesterday you took the initiative to help them, there must be some purpose." ”

Laughing softly, Su Yanying said, "I still can't hide it from you." ”

Close to Yan Yin's ear, Su Yanying whispered, "I wrote down the language of the conversation between Mrs. Nangong and the barbarians of the Yiyu clan yesterday, and I asked them again later, and their answers were the same as when they replied to Mrs. Nangong, although I still don't understand what it means, but roughly speaking, they are not lying, and when I have time, I will find an opportunity to ask Mrs. Nangong for advice, hoping to learn the language of the barbarians, so that I don't always need to ask Mrs. Nangong for help, and besides, if I ask, it will be safer." ”

Yan Yin understood what Su Yanying meant, she was afraid that Mrs. Nangong would hide something from them, this assumption was not impossible, because at present, only Mrs. Nangong understood some barbarian languages, what she said was what she said, Yan Yin and they could only listen to it,

However, if Su Yanying learns it, then it will be different, if Su Yanying asks, Yan Yin will not have to worry about concealing the news.

"Yeonying, you're so smart. Yan Yin was moved: "It's good to have you." ”

With a smile, a trace of beauty floated on Su Yanying's beautiful and gentle face, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked at Yan Yin, and whispered, "This is what I should do, isn't it." ”

On the other side, Xia Hanqing looked at Mrs. Nangong and said lightly, "You have the sword qi of my Qingyun Peak in your body, and you are a sword cultivator." ”

Mrs. Nangong nodded, looked at Xia Hanqing and said, "Well, yes, the senior is also a disciple of Qingyun Peak, why have I never seen or found that you have the aura of sword qi rushing into the sky." ”

"Who is your master? Without answering Mrs. Nangong's words, Xia Hanqing continued,

Glancing at Xia Hanqing strangely, Mrs. Nangong said, "My master is the third apprentice under the Seventh Elder, and I am the second apprentice of my master." ”

"Lu Yuan. "Xia Han Qingdao" Yes, in the sword cultivation lineage, she is the only woman among all the elders, I can't imagine that you are her apprentice, so you and Ning Jing can also be regarded as the same generation. ”

Shen Jingjing smiled at Mrs. Nangong, and then made a sign language,

In Mrs. Nangong's incomprehensible gaze, Xia Hanqing said, "Ning Jing was born unable to speak, and she just wanted to tell you that she was very happy to have you as a senior sister." ”

Nodding, Mrs. Nangong smiled at Shen Ningning and said, "It turns out that Miss Shen is also a disciple of our Qingyun Peak, but why didn't Long Jing feel the aura of sword qi rushing into the sky." ”

It turned out that Mrs. Nangong's original name was Long Jing,

Xia Han said lightly: "The sword qi rushing into the sky is only the cultivation of the first vein of sword cultivation, and the cultivation of the first vein of art cultivation is not this feat. ”

Long Jing was surprised and said, "You are all disciples of the First Sect of Cultivation, no wonder I have never seen it before when I was on Qingyun Peak, but as far as I know, there are not many people in the First Pulse of Cultivation, and I have also been to the Hidden Art Hall several times, but why have I never seen you." ”

"Tranquility's ancestor is Qu Yan, Qu Yan later left Qingyun Peak and accepted an apprentice in the Fengyun Empire, and her apprentice finally accepted Tranquility, so it's normal that you haven't seen it. Xia Hanqing opened his mouth and said, "When you entered Qingyun Peak, I had already entered the Sword Shrine, and by the time I came out, you had already left Qingyun Peak." ”

"Sword Shrine. Long Jing was surprised, "You have entered the Sword Shrine, but as far as I know, except for the head and the next head of the Sword Shrine, no one else is allowed to enter the Sword Shrine. ”

Xia Hanqing said calmly, "Your ancestor Lu Yuan is my junior brother, and the head Xiao Chenzi is my senior brother, strictly speaking, you are the same as Ningning, you should call me my uncle ancestor, as for the sword mound, in addition to the qualifications of the head of the sword cultivation line and the next head of the first line, the head of the art cultivation line is also qualified to enter." ”

"The head of the first line of cultivation, Uncle Shi" Long Jing said in a condensed voice, "However, why are you so young, compared to the master, it seems that there is a big difference. ”

"I broke through to the Spirit King at the age of twenty-seven, and Xiao Chenzi was the Spirit King at the age of forty. "Xia Han Qingdao" Because after becoming the Spirit King, his appearance will be fixed according to his age at that time and maintain it for a long time, so Senior Brother Xiao Chenzi looks older than me. ”

Long Jing nodded and said, "It turns out that this is the case, the disciple Long Jing has seen the master and the ancestor. ”

"Hmm" with a soft hum, Xia Hanqing said, "Why did you leave Qingyun Peak." ”

Sighing lightly, Long Jing said, "It's all just because of the family's needs." ”

Seeing that Long Jing didn't want to say more, Xia Hanqing didn't ask more,

For the next period of time, Yan Yin and the others traveled long distances every day, traveling through 100,000 mountains.

And Su Yanying will use her spiritual sense to conduct a large-scale investigation every day.

It's just that although her spiritual sense can detect a radius of three thousand miles, she still hasn't found any trace of Hou Chi and them.

When Yan Yin's army entered the 100,000 mountains, a major event also happened in northern Xinjiang.

Although there are many rivers in northern Xinjiang, most of them are small rivers and not many big rivers.

But there is a huge lake outside the city of Wanlibian, the area of the lake is about hundreds of miles around, the water source of the giant lake comes from the thousands of trickles gathered in the Broken Sky Mountains, this lake is very large, and there is lake water that has been accumulated for I don't know how many years.

If this lake is introduced into northern Xinjiang, it can not only alleviate the water problem in northern Xinjiang, but also provide an additional waterway for northern Xinjiang.

After Ye Qingchen rode on the Fire God's junior brother to investigate, according to the development needs of northern Xinjiang, he put forward a proposal to build a river channel to introduce the water of the giant lake into northern Xinjiang.

Mo ruthlessly disagrees with this suggestion,

In his words, this will consume a lot of materials, and for the developing northern Xinjiang, such a huge project is like a border city of 10,000 miles back then, which requires great time and energy.

However, I don't know how the news got out.

Not only the people of Zhenbei City, but also the vast majority of the people in Northern Xinjiang have expressed their expectation that there will be such a long river across Northern Xinjiang.

Moreover, One Piece and other generals also wrote to Ye Qingchen, saying that they would support her.

One Piece They are all people who follow Yan Yin all the way north to pacify the plague of strange beasts, so they naturally know that there are not many rivers in the north of Xinjiang, and the geographical span is very large.

For the army, a long march is nothing,

But if it's a businessman, it's time-consuming.

But if there is such a big river, you only need to take a boat, which not only saves time but also saves effort.

Mandate is also a soldier, and he also has the same considerations as One Piece, so he also expressed his support.

In addition, as a qualified businessman, Su Jinghong, who was once the head of the four major business groups of the Fengyun Empire, also expressed his support for this, and he also took out a large amount of money to dig the long river.

However, the Su family is not unconditional,

The Su family hopes to build three river ports on the Yangtze River for free, and collect entry fees for passing merchant ships and passenger ships.

In response to this condition, Ye Qingchen's reply was that only one river port could be built, but he could choose any city other than Zhenbei City and the end of the Long River to build a river port.

For this, the Su family also agreed after discussion,

With the example of the Su family, other major families and caravans have also expressed that they can provide financial support, and the conditions are similar to those of the Su family, all hoping to build a river port.

If this long river is successfully excavated, then the construction of the river port on it will inevitably become a development, and the funds invested in it will also be collected in a few years.

Businessmen seek profit, they all think very clearly,

Not only do they know, but they also know that they are ruthless,

After seeing this phenomenon, Mo Wuru could only agree in the end,

However, he told Ye Qingchen that there should not be too many river ports, and only one can be built in each big city, while in other places, river ports should be built according to the distance between river ports and river ports.

In this regard, Ye Qingchen naturally knows,

After some discussion, the major families and merchants reached an agreement with the government of Northern Xinjiang, they contributed funds, and the government sent people, in return, Northern Xinjiang will give some designated places for major families and merchants to build river ports, however, the fees for each river port will be determined by the government.

After several months, finally, with the support of Mo ruthlessness and authorization, with the help of the army of One Piece and the people of Northern Xinjiang, and with the help of the Su family and major families and merchants, a river connecting Zhenbei City, Fenghua City, and other big cities along the line with the giant lake outside the border city of Northern Xinjiang as the source started.

In order to seek speed, the river section was started in sections.

And the vast number of people in northern Xinjiang have also focused their energy on this long river that can cross the north and south of northern Xinjiang after being completed.

However, after the matter was finally resolved,

Ye Qingchen put his mind on another thing,
