Tang Yunfeng's winter vacation life is very comfortable, usually reading books with Xiaoshi in the morning, tutoring his homework by the way, and playing games online in the afternoon and evening. Winter in the countryside is still very comfortable for people who stay in their hometowns.

With the advancement of the national rural revitalization strategy, the living standards in rural areas are getting better and better. Many villages have completed characteristic transformation and upgrading, and the supporting facilities are becoming more and more complete, and some villages have achieved collective heating. Tang Yunfeng's hometown is a small village on the border of two counties, and the transformation has not yet been promoted here.

The conditions are a little harder, but the life of the villagers is also more relaxed. Grandpa usually goes to the market in the morning or packs things at home, and after a nap in the afternoon, he goes to play mahjong with a few partners, and continues to fight on the mahjong table in the evening. In addition to preparing three meals a day, grandma took the soles of her shoes and chatted with a few old ladies.

After returning home, Tang Yunfeng's sneakers were replaced with cotton shoes made by his grandmother, and he also changed into cotton jackets and pants made by his grandmother. It looks a little bloated, but the warmth is real.

The comfortable life of grandparents gave Tang Yunfeng greater motivation to struggle in the vast continent. It is thanks to his income in the game that the grandparents are freed from the busyness of the year. Before that, in order to treat him and provide him with school, the two old men were busy with the work in the fields all year round, regardless of the cold and heat, and had to stay up late to do willow weaving handicrafts when they went home, in exchange for a meager income to subsidize the family. Grandma's hands freeze and crack in winter, and a large part of the reason is that the willow weaving keeps touching the cold water.

Tang Yunfeng didn't think about buying a house in the city and letting the two old people go to the city to enjoy their old age in peace, but their grandparents refused. They are accustomed to the living environment and neighborhood feelings in the countryside, and are reluctant to go to unfamiliar places in the city that they may not know each other. Therefore, Tang Yunfeng can only improve the living environment of his hometown as much as possible to make the two old people live more comfortably.

After the Kun Hexagram Array was completed, Tang Yunfeng directly built a mansion in this remote camp, put the Kun Hexagram Array Talisman made of soul stones neatly on a table, and changed rooms to continue to study the remaining Array Talismans.

The gossip is composed of yin and yang, with the reference of the kun hexagram array, and the remaining seven gossip arrays, Tang Yunfeng did not encounter too many obstacles, so they were completed one by one. When it came to the ninth basic array rune, Tang Yunfeng was completely blind, because there were only eight doors in the Bagua Array, what the hell was the ninth formation rune!

Tang Yunfeng looked through all the recorded notes and formation base composition, and looked up all kinds of gossip array diagrams, but he didn't find any clues to the ninth formation talisman. The only thing that is certain is that this formation symbol appears the most times in the formation base, which means that this formation symbol is the most critical.

For three consecutive days, Tang Yunfeng soaked in the library of Tianyuan Universe, flipped through countless materials related to the I Ching gossip, and even consulted some ancient texts and Western runes, but he never found anything. Lin Feiyang was also consulted in the game, and was directly asked by the other party, "Do you think I like to use my brain?" "I've sent it back.

The brothers in the dormitory don't have to be counted on, they are now busy expanding their territory, and the construction of the alliance is in full swing. The stations of the two Hanfeng alliances were chosen at the passes leading to the southern camp and the direction of the Wind and Snow Pavilion, respectively, and the two alliances held the main road to Hanfeng City by land.

With mountains to the north and large rivers to the east, there is no danger for the time being, and there is no focus on development. At Qin Xihe's suggestion, Hanfeng still built the first-level stations of the two supernumerary alliances at the entrance of the mining area in the north and a wide area in the east of the big river, one as a resource city for Hanfeng City, and the other as a hub for future waterway transportation.

Due to the recent expansion, the Hanfeng War Alliance and its sub-alliances have combined to more than 500 players, making them the most powerful force in the region. The establishment of the four first-level war alliance stations is equivalent to bringing this large area of grassland by mountains and rivers into the sphere of influence of the Cold Wind War Alliance, which is much larger than the territory of those war alliances that started in the camp.

In those places where resources and camps are relatively concentrated, on average, a war alliance occupies the territory of two or three camps, and the top is about 5 miles in a circle. As more and more second-level alliances appear, the third-level alliance upgrade task has led to many small alliances facing the fate of being annexed, and the development of none of them allows other forces to appear in their sphere of influence.

With the exception of a few areas where there are two or more evenly matched forces, most of the smaller alliances either choose to join the powerful alliances next to them, or they can only relocate with their alliances. When encountering a more polite Great War Alliance, if the small War Alliance is unwilling to join, they will also be given a compensation for the station, which will be used for the construction of the station after the relocation of the War Alliance, which is equivalent to the Great War Alliance paying for the station of the Small War Alliance. When encountering an unreasonable Great War Alliance, the Small War Alliance can only reluctantly dismantle the War Alliance station, take back some of the drawings, or sell the station to the other party at a very low price.

But whether it is a small war alliance that has received relatively reasonable compensation, or a small war alliance that has been forced to demolish its station, it is facing a very serious consequence, that is, the loss of war alliance members, after all, not everyone is willing to move with the war alliance.

In a bar in Kyoto, the famous renminbi player "Five Lakes and Four Seas" has just sent off Li Gongzi. After returning to his office, a young man about thirty years old walked in, looked at his eldest brother, who was already gray before forty, and said with an indignant face:

"Big brother, do we really want to give up the camp that we have worked so hard to run for so long to that person surnamed Li? Isn't our nearly half a year's efforts in vain? What do you think of my brother who has been with us for many years? ”

"What roar? You think I'm not distressed! But what can I do? Our brothers have worked hard from nothing to this point, are we smarter and more capable than others?! Of course not, don't you know how we started? Can we disobey the Li family?!

Now we have saved some belongings, but compared to the Li family, we are still nothing. If we annoy the surnamed Li, it will be as easy as crushing an ant to death.

Don't think that when people call us a few times Mr. Hu, we are really some kind of entrepreneurs and star bosses. In the final analysis, we are working for other people, and we are not even as good as part-time workers. To put it mildly, I, Hu Tianyu, am just a dog. ”

Hu Tianyu smiled bitterly after complaining, walked over to his brother, and patted the young man on the shoulder.

"Alright, don't be angry. Isn't it just a few War-Alliance stations? For the one surnamed Li! Putting 50,000 yuan into the accounts of the old brothers is regarded as compensation for this time. We good people did it to the end, in addition to some important materials, even the things from the War Alliance's warehouse were also given to him. ”

When the young man heard this, he immediately wanted to blow up. Hu Tianyu pressed his shoulders and helped him pull him to the sofa and sit down.

"Tianhua, I'm already preparing to retreat, and the previous hole has almost been filled. When the worries were completely relieved, our brothers left Kyoto with the belongings they had saved over the years and found a place to start over.

Over the years, the eldest brother has not done things in vain with the Li family, and he has learned a lot of things. To be able to work hard from nothing to today, in addition to the support of the Li family, our brothers are not without any strength. I'm sure I'll let my brother restart the stove freely, and this time it's a rehearsal.

If the station is given, we will give it, don't we still have a group of brothers for many years? There are people, there is hope, just change places, and it is not easy to build a station. ”

Hu Tianhua calmed down and looked at this eldest brother who had endured humiliation for their siblings and family for more than ten years, and choked up a little.

"Big brother, I'm just a little worthless for you. Over the years, you have helped the surnamed Li settle many bad things, and with his virtue, he has to let you serve tea and water all day long, that is, he was born in a good family. Otherwise, I don't know how many times I was beaten to death. ”

Hu Tianyu smiled nonchalantly.

"Hehe, who makes people's lives good, this reincarnation is also a skill!"

"Okay, big brother, I listen to you. I'll go and give money to the brothers first, don't let the brothers mess up, and when you finish dealing with things, we'll go back to our hometown, there is no shortage of money now, there is no need to suffer from this nest anymore. ”

"Okay, you can do it first!"

After Hu Tianhua left, Hu Tianyu sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette. He really wants to get rid of the shackles of the Li family, but it's not easy to talk about. In the past ten years of being a white glove for the Li family, he has done a lot of illegal and undisciplined things, although there are few things he has handled, but when he really investigates, he will definitely not be able to escape the involvement. What's more, he knows too many unsightly things about the Li family, and the Li family can't let him go so easily.

Hu Tianyu, a player who completed the task of the war alliance for the second time, sent the war alliance to Li Gongzi because of a phone call from Li Gongzi, and achieved the second war alliance in China to "dominate the world". After handing over his war alliance, Hu Tianyu was reluctant to give up the resources on the side of Yunmeng Mountain in Zhongzhou, so he rebuilt the war alliance station in the camp on the other side of Yunmeng Mountain and established the Five Lakes Gang of the war alliance.

As a result, a few days after the Wuhu Gang was promoted to the second-level battle alliance, two sub-alliances had just been created, and Li Gongzi came to the door again and asked him to turn the Wuhu Gang into a sub-alliance that "dominates the world". Li Gongzi's appetite was very great, and he was ready to establish a sub-alliance station in the three directions of Yunmeng Mountain, and include the entire Yunmeng Mountain in his sphere of influence. You must know that around Yunmeng Mountain, there are more than ten second-level battle alliances alone.

Just like Hu Tianyu said to Hu Tianhua, he couldn't refuse Li Gongzi's request, but he already had his own ideas, and he had made a great name in his game career for many years, and it didn't look like becoming a vassal of the Li family again in the game anyway. As a result, he agreed to merge the Five Lakes Gang into the "Domination of the World" and become its sub-alliance, but he himself would take a group of brothers to develop elsewhere, on the grounds that he would build a silver coin force that could support each other at critical moments.

Li Gongzi didn't want to be with Hu Tianyu, don't look at Hu Tianyu often wiping his buttocks, but he didn't have much affection for this guy who was only loyal to his father. I wish he had taken his own people far away, his purpose was the second-level battle alliance and station of the Wuhu Gang, as for who would be the leader of the alliance, it was better for him to have the final say. immediately agreed to Hu Tianyu's proposal, and pretended to say that he would give five million to Hu Tianyu, Hu Tianyu knew that it was impossible to get the money, and still expressed his gratitude.
