As they spoke, teams of criminals gathered around them, and even the people in charge of the Jiang family broke away from these teams and came to Jiang Xijun to report the results of their trip. Jiang Xijun was busy coping, so she confessed to Jiang Luhan and left.

Instead, the two old men behind her stayed behind and reminisced with Jiang Luhan.

"The sixth brother has been lurking for several months this time, which is really hard, but the results are remarkable, and it is a great achievement. The tall old man first complimented.

Jiang Luhan hurriedly said modestly: "I don't deserve the praise of the fourth brother, it's still a good plan for the lord, but now we are not safe, hurry back to the city to organize the population into households, and then deal with the liquidation of the big cadres is the best policy." ”

The thin old man coughed and said, "This is true, but you don't have to worry about the sixth one, the lord has already calculated, and it is definitely much more secure than the actions of other cities and the group of reckless men in Qingyang." ”

"I am naturally relieved that the Lord will do things, but this time we monopolized a large mining area, and almost brought out 40,000 people, which is twice as much as the original plan of 20,000, so many people are you really sure to take them all?"

"Don't worry, this time the matter is the linkage of twelve cities, we have agreed in advance, hunting different mining areas, the cadres may not be so unlucky to chase us; moreover, the lord borrowed two cloud boats from the city lord's mansion, and borrowed three from the Lu You Commercial Bank, which is enough to make up twelve cloud boats; we will take people to travel on the planned route, and the cloud boats will be transported back and forth, and I am afraid that all the people will be taken away and resettled in a month. At that time, maybe Tai Yiguan hadn't reacted yet. Moreover, Qingfu City is far away from the mining area, and even if the cadres want to retaliate, they will only find someone close, so what do they have to do with us. ”

Jiang Luhan's frowning brows gradually relaxed: "Without further ado, we will immediately ask the Lord to board the ship and leave immediately, and I will take the follow-up people by land, waiting for you to come back to pick up." ”

At this point, the two old men both had wry smiles on their faces, and said helplessly: "Sixth, the lord commands, you bring someone on board the ship first, and she will personally suppress the formation." ”

"Nonsense," Jiang Luhan's face immediately sank: "How can the lord be honorable and in danger, have you forgotten the things of seven years ago? ”

"That's right, but sixth brother, you don't know the temper of the lord, who can change what she decides?"

Jiang Luhan was silent, and only after a moment did he raise his head and say, "Fourth brother, Xing Mu, then I can only ask you to help me bring people back, and I will personally stay to protect the lord." ”

"Sixth ......" "Sixth Brother, ...... You"

"Forget it, you're also a stubborn guy, so I'll talk to the lord again, but you're still going to let people board the ship, and you can't delay any longer. ”

Jiang Luhan nodded, turned to Shen Lin and said, "You take someone to go first, Jiang Qian and I will stay to protect the lord." ”

Shen Lin hesitated for a moment, then nodded, turned around and beckoned someone to follow him towards the three cloud ships anchored not far away.

Chen An listened to their conversation on the side, and had his own calculations in his heart, his genius personality had been established, but it was not enough to make people pay attention to the light genius, but also to have loyalty, otherwise the white-eyed wolf would care. If you want to quickly gain a foothold in the Twelve Liancheng, you have to rely on the strength of the Jiang family, but people are not stupid, why should they support themselves, so they have to give up a little in exchange for it.

So when Shen Lin greeted him, he resolutely stood up and said to Jiang Luhan: "Uncle Han has the grace of knowing me, and I will stay." ”

Jiang Luhan was about to walk to Jiang Xijun, who was comforting his subordinates in the distance, to guard the side, he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words, and then his face showed a look of relief, not only Chen An knew how to repay his kindness, but also for his own idea just now, a person's ability is secondary, character is the most important, and he can stand up at this moment, it is not in vain that he has placed a heavy bet on him in advance.

The two old men also glanced at Chen An in surprise, with a look of appreciation on their faces, and even Jiang Qiu, who was originally slightly hostile to Chen An, looked a lot kinder.

Shen Lin, who had already walked a distance from "Xiaojun ......", was also surprised by Chen An's decision, everyone has been living in the Eastern Wilderness for a while, and almost all of them have understood the horror of the Eastern Wilderness, and then they should precipitate for a period of time to adjust their mentality and adapt to this harsh environment as soon as possible. Isn't this how people are, they always feel incredible and difficult to accept, but they don't care if they get used to nature, but they can face it bravely, but if they don't even adapt, there are very few people who directly face difficulties, which has to be said to be commendable courage.

But after getting along for a period of time, Shen Lin didn't want Chen An to have an accident before he grew up, so he wanted to persuade him.

But before he could speak, he was stopped by Jiang Luhan waving his hand.

I only heard the latter say: "Okay, I really didn't mistake you, you follow us." Shen Lin, you continue to take people on board. ”

He also knew that Chen An had not grown up yet, and it would be a pity if he was damaged on the way, let him adapt to it for a while, and it might be better to grow up for a while, which would be more beneficial to the Jiang family, but then the Twelve Cities were likely to be retaliated by the madness of the Great Qian, who would be spared at that time? It is better to take advantage of this journey to help him and let him grow up as soon as possible, and he can also have some self-protection in the face of a dangerous environment in the future, you must know that there is no greenhouse in the Eastern Wilderness.

Shen Lin was stunned at first, and was silent for a moment before continuing to wave his hand and beckon everyone to follow him to board the ship, behind him, Jin Ming, Wen Liang, and Lu Ran all glanced at Chen An deeply, and then followed Shen Lin out of here and headed towards the cloud boat.

Jiang Luhan took Jiang Qiu, Chen An and the two old men to Jiang Xijun's side to pass by, Jiang Xijun didn't say anything, just smiled at Chen An gently, there was praise, appreciation, relief, closeness and playfulness in this smile.

And Chen An looked at this familiar smile, but his heart was bitter. It's not that the other party is similar to the face in his memory, but the other party's temperament like the eldest sister constantly evokes his own memories, which makes Chen An can't help but think deeply, how much of his stay may be because of the other party, because of his first heartbeat buried deep in his heart.

Without further ado, under the scheduling and arrangement of everyone in the Jiang family, the criminals boarded the ship one after another.

The small cloud boat is more than 40 zhang long, and the large one is more than 60 zhang long, claiming to be able to accommodate thousands of people, but in fact, the word "claim" is a benevolent and wise person, the small cloud boat can accommodate up to 500 people, and the large one may be seven or eight hundred, and these three cloud boats can transport less than 2,000 people in one trip, and the rest of the people can only follow Jiang Xijun by land.

This time, Jiang Luhan alone brought 7,000 people out from his mine, which is actually due to the fact that the great cadres have accumulated power for a long time, and many of the more than 12,000 people still have expectations for the imperial court, in this case, Jiang Luhan can still bring out more than half of the people from there, and the tall old man praised the remarkable results It is definitely sincere, without the slightest irony.

However, even if it is difficult to leave the homeland, the sense of belonging of the sinners to the imperial court far exceeds that of the Eastern Wilderness, but the population base of the mining area is too large, the major mining areas are basically full, and there are even overloaded, and the nobles of the Central Plains are busy fighting, and they do not estimate whether the mining area of the Eastern Wilderness can bear it, so it caused the current situation.

In addition to Jiang Luhan's belonging, there were people from another mine, led by a Jiang disciple, there were almost five thousand of them, and the total number of people left in the round also exceeded ten thousand.

There is no road in the twelve cities and the mining area, and the road that everyone is walking on now is a relatively safe road that Jiang Xijun has found someone to detect in advance, there is no large number of blood demons blocking the way, and there are no strong ancient beasts to prey, only some beasts and scattered blood golems appeared in front of the marching team, and they were solved by several Jiang disciples, and they spent ten days without danger along the way.

In the middle, the cloud boat came back twice, leaving behind a large amount of daily necessities and food, and took with it almost 4,000 people, so that the total number of people in the team was sharply reduced to 6,000.

Chen An watched carefully, and found that those who were sent away were all young and strong, and most of the people left behind were women, children, children and the elderly, and he immediately knew a lot about the general situation of Qingfu City. The young and strong can form an army and provide a lot of labor, and the lack of young and strong, or a large number of deaths, also confirms the harsh environment of the Twelve Cities from the side.

However, Chen An had already prepared for this, so he didn't have any other ideas, but was very interested in the Jiang family's disciples' moves.

They rarely used their own strength, and they couldn't see what kind of cultivation they were, and many times they used the forty-one rounds of fire guns and locust crossbows that Shen Lin said, and under the salvo, the beasts and monsters turned into a sieve in just one round.

There are also other mechanical things and the use of mysterious weapons, Chen An was dazzled and amazed, he knew that the mechanism of the Great Dry World had been applied to various fields, but because he had been wandering in the poor countryside or border areas all the year round, he had not seen much except for some means of transportation, so he did not feel deeply.

I didn't want to go to this eastern wilderness now, but I opened my eyes once.

The dead beast was skinned and cramped, the meat was given to everyone to beat their teeth, and the fur and bones were slightly processed and kept as materials for making utensils, while the monster watched Jiang Xijun and the others use special instruments to take out a cloud of blue-gray or purple-red mist in their body and hide it.

Chen An asked, and was told that it was the material for making the soul card.

The production of soul cards is not the remnant soul of high-level ancient beasts such as the Howling Moon Sky Wolf, in fact, many of them are just the remnants of the spirit of this little monster, and there are many types of moon nine-grade soul cards, and they are even divided into superb, Holy Spirit, elite and ordinary according to this grade.

The Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf Soul Card that Jiang Luhan gave to Chen An was really made from the remnant soul that was split from the ancient beast Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf, and it was a genuine Holy Spirit-level soul card, which was almost impossible to find. Jiang Luhan gave it to Chen An, which can be said to have sold a lot of favors.

Different from ordinary, the soul card above the elite level will show a certain growth every time it is fused with a high-grade soul card, and the Holy Spirit and the peerless level can greatly improve the physical fitness, and even develop new abilities, which is very supernatural.
