As the Cao family became more peaceful and stable, and the family missed Cao Yi and Cao Shu more and more, except for Cao Liang.

Cao Ren was also a little anxious to train more manpower urgently.

After two years of development, Caojiazhuang has sufficient money and grain, and the village has grown, and the first batch of twenty or thirty people was sent to Qingyuan, which is easy.

Personnel have been chosen.

Just wait for the Juyi Dart Bureau to dart Tan Xi, and you can set off with it.

But.

It's not just Caojiazhuang that is preparing manpower.

The 'sick old man', the master of the Changsheng Hall of the Shenhou Mansion on Wufowl Mountain, is also forming a team.

Caojiazhuang is for the search for people.

And the Shenhou Mansion is for development.

……

"The world is vast, and the girder is not all."

"Far from it."

"Closer, to the east and south, there are many island chains in the East China Sea and the South China Sea, and there are many island countries on them."

"To the north there is the high mountain kingdom, and in the steppe there is the kingdom of the Golden Horde."

"Out of Saibei, there are thirty-six countries in the Western Regions."

"On all sides, there is a kingdom."

"So, are there any other kingdoms in the East China Sea to the east, the South China Sea to the south, the High Mountain Country, the Golden Horde Kingdom to the north, and the Western Regions further west? What kind of heaven and earth is it? ”

"Maybe there's more masters there, maybe it's the elixir that spreads all over the mountains, or the number of martial arts paths that are very different from Middle-earth."

"Commodities and wealth, depending on the region, will not be less."

"The Shenhou Mansion intends to form multiple teams, go out of the beams, and explore and develop in all directions of the southeast, northwest, and northwest."

"This is a great cause for the benefit of the future, and for the participants, once they discover a novel realm that the people of Daliang have never reached or even heard of, it is even more fame and fortune."

In the Five Birds Mountain, Cao Xin incarnated as a 'sick old man', gathered a group of people, and was making a speech.

In this group of people, the composition is complex.

There are warriors in the rivers and lakes.

There are ordinary civilians.

There are peddlers and pawns.

……

All kinds of people come together.

Limited by the times, Cao Xin's understanding of other than the Great Liang is also limited, such as the Gaoshan Kingdom, the Golden Horde Kingdom, the Thirty-six Kingdoms of the Western Regions, etc., all of which have only heard of it and do not know much about it.

This is true of neighbours, let alone more distant lands.

But this does not prevent him from thinking in his previous life, imagining here, painting a magnificent and wonderful picture for everyone, and describing a wonderful and wonderful prospect.

The purpose is to fan these people and embark on a journey to find a new continent.

The fundamental purpose is that sending these pioneering expeditions early can serve as a precursor for Cao Xin to ride the gods around the world in the future.

Last year, when Xijing Mansion was dormant, all the sixty-one families in Xijing were soft, and they were fined silver, and there were more or less other filial piety.

On average, each family contributed about 5,000 taels to Cao Xin.

Sixty-one.

More than 300,000.

This is immense wealth.

In the past, the Ge family, who occupied Changxi Lake, worked hard for decades, and the movable and real estate may not be worth so much when counted together.

Cao Xin once became rich.

With so much gold and silver, Caojiazhuang can't use it, and Changshengtang can't use it up. Instead of piling it up and smelling rotten, it's better to prepare in advance and take precautions.

The world is so big!

It's a shame not to take a look!

Thereupon.

After more than half a year and various investigations, the first batch of people was finally selected.

Among these people, some of them are oriented to the vast world, and subjectively they are willing to explore and explore, to see the unknown.

There are also some of them, just for the money.

And the last thing Cao Xin lacks is money.

Advocate ideals.

Promise heavy profits.

With a two-pronged approach, an exploration team can easily pull up.

Headed by five people—

Two of them were secret agents of the Shenhou Mansion.

One is the scattered people.

One is the bankrupt trader.

The last one is the physician hired by the Changshengtang.

The five-person leader must be armed with force, experience and experience, and medical treatment. Coupled with the more than 20 young people from all walks of life who accompanied him, it was not so easy to be wiped out.

Cao Xin looked at Di Jinsong, one of the two of the five people, and asked, "Which direction do you want to go?" ”

Di Jinsong was the first batch of secret agents in the Shenhou Mansion.

When Cao Xin announced the exploration plan to recruit people in the Shenhou Mansion, Di Jinsong, who had always been unconcerned, responded positively at the first time.

He doesn't like to live the same life.

He was originally a scholar, and later practiced martial arts.

After practicing martial arts, he traveled all over the world.

During the journey, he was chivalrous and righteous.

After getting bored, return to Xijing City.

After being idle for a long time, he joined the Shenhou Mansion again.

And now, after joining the Shenhou Mansion for more than a year, he is eager for new changes and new excitement.

Expedition!

Exploit!

Explore!

Go to see the end of the world and see the customs that are very different from the beams.

This is undoubtedly a novelty, it is exciting, and it makes his blood boil for a long time.

After hearing Cao Xin's inquiry, Di Jinsong had already answered Cao Xin in private, and then replied: "To the east and south are sea areas, and it is not easy to sail on the sea. We are all landlubbers, so it is better to go to the northwest and go to the 36 countries of the Western Regions to see and understand first. Then dig through the Western Regions and continue to the northwest. ”

"The Western Regions are good!"

"I agree!"

Bankrupt businessman, now Chinese New Year's Eve three-year-old 'Chen Guangzhi' was the first to agree.

This man is not an inner ghost.

He was a talent discovered by Cao Xin using the information channels of the Shenhou Mansion, including Caojiazhuang.

Chen Guangzhi's family has been a merchant for generations, and when he was seven or eight years old, he followed his father to the north and south. In his twenties, he started his own business and traveled all over the northern provinces.

But bad luck, coupled with the chaos of the world, he went bankrupt several times, but he was able to save his life and make a comeback.

Some time ago, Chen Guangzhi encountered robbers in Shangjiang and ushered in his fourth bankruptcy.

After stumbling back to Xijing Mansion, he searched for relatives and friends to prepare for another fight.

happened to be learned by Cao Xin, a letter, invited to come.

At first, he was probably afraid, afraid of the prestige of the Shenhou Mansion.

But after listening to Cao Xin's speech, Chen Guangzhi sincerely wanted to join.

Maybe it's for his ideals, maybe he also has a heart to explore the world.

Maybe it's for business, in order to catch a ride, open up a new trade route, and make your business career rejuvenate a second spring.

Who knows, exactly?

No matter what Chen Guangzhi thinks, having him join is a good thing for Cao Xin, the first Shenhou Mansion exploration team.

Di Jinsong.

Chen Guangzhi.

Both decided to explore in a northwestern direction.

In addition, there is also a secret agent of Cao Xin inside.

The opinions of the remaining two are not important.

The direction has been set –

Straight to the northwest!

……

is about to go to the Qishan faction, and in the past few days before leaving, Cao Xin has become more and more busy.

Caojiazhuang.

Shenhou Mansion.

Hall of Eternal Life.

There are so many things to deal with.

Although he has an anchor point and a god, even if he goes to the Qishan faction, he can quickly travel back and forth between Qishan and Xijing. But when it just passed, who knew what the situation would be, and if it could be arranged, it would be better to arrange it as much as possible.

It's so intense -

Caojiazhuang's team.

The team of the Shenhou Mansion.

Departure one after another.

Cao Xin was also going to Xijing City to join Ning Shuhua, waiting for Duan Chong to return and set off directly.

However, this day.

In the five bird mountains, there are distinguished guests.

……

"His Royal Highness King Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Cao Xin looked at Chen Wang Lu Yu, who still had the same demeanor, and met with an insight-

Lu Yu –

[Root Bone: 6]

[Age: 45]

[Sequence: None]

[HP: 21]

[Energy value: 34]

[Spirit: 24]

【Talent: None】

[Exercise: Emperor Pole Nebula Jin (Level 15)]

[Martial Arts: Ming Sheng's Sword Technique (Level 15), Arc Moon Eleven Style (Level 13), Tiangang Righteous Qi Palm (Level 13), Demon Crossing One Finger (Level 13) ,......]

[Martial arts fit: 72% of Huangji Xingyun Jin, 71% of Ming Sheng's swordsmanship, 47% of Arc Moon Eleven Style, 42% of Tiangang Zhengqi Palm, 41% of Demon Crossing Finger ,......, omitted]

……

"My health and spirit are not much higher than mine."

"But the energy value is high."

Cao has a number of confidences.

In the past month or so after the panel revision, Cao Xin has not only ignited the withering of the gods and Cao Ren, but also gained insight into many masters.

For example, Shangguan Yi.

For example, Ning Shuhua.

For example, Cao Ren and Cao Xian.

First-class and second-rate.

After synthesizing, Cao Xin has more knowledge of the three data.

To maintain the strength of a person, generally speaking, as long as you look at the 'energy value'.

Below 10, second-rate.

10-20, top notch.

I haven't seen more than 20 of them, but I guess it's super first-class.

So it seems.

Lu Yu's energy value of up to '34' is likely to be a grandmaster-level master.

"I can preside over the embroidery division, and I really have two brushes."

Cao said secretly in confidence.

Opposite side.

Lu Yu didn't know that he was seen through by Cao Xin at a glance, and he exchanged a few words of greeting with this 'sick old man', and his heart was very responsive.

In November last year, he made peace with the Shenhou Mansion on behalf of the imperial court, in order to make the Shenhou Mansion lax, and contact more people in the Shenhou Mansion, so as to find out the weak points of the Shenhou Mansion, and disintegrate and rebel from within.

But more than half a year has passed, and the only person who has appeared in front of the people in the huge Shenhou Mansion is still this 'sick old man' who claims to be the master of the Immortal Hall.

Wearing a mask, not revealing his true face.

And the Changshengtang he established is a good doctor who generously hires real money in Xijing Mansion.

Lu Yu sent a lot of spies to sneak in.

Originally, I wanted to break into the interior and learn more.

But the result?

This sick old man!

This Eternal Life Hall!

It's really honest research on herbal medicine, and research on alchemy and pharmaceutical technology!

Except for the sick old man, there is no second high-level of the Shenhou Mansion to appear!

If it weren't for the fact that Wufowl Mountain had been stable, Lu Yu would even have to wonder if this 'sick old man' and 'Changshengtang' were making people in the lake under the guise of the name of the Shenhou Mansion?!

But it's not like this, otherwise how could the Shenhou Mansion not pursue it?

After all, in the past half a year, the Shenhou Mansion has still done a lot of actions to punish adultery and eliminate evil in Xijing Mansion.

It hasn't gone away.

But to say that the sick old man and the Immortal Hall are the Shenhou Mansion is too honest and too responsible.

In a word.

It was completely different from what Lu Yu expected.

Fortunately, he has a new trick.

"Since Lu took charge of the embroidery department, he has felt that martial arts are prosperous, and there are many masters in the world, each with its own story."

"Yes."

He ordered the embroidery division to collect the deeds of various sects and masters from all walks of life, and arranged several lists. Those on the list, or martial arts masters, have long been famous in martial arts; or a hero, martial arts; Or young and handsome, in his prime. ”

"A month ago, the preliminary list was decided, and from today onwards, the embroidery department will send people to various sects one after another."

"Lu is here to send the list, and to bother the seniors and the brothers of the Shenhou Mansion."

Lu Yu asked his entourage to take out the list.

Cao Xin took a look——

Boy!

A thick stack, not dozens of volumes?

"This is the overall list."

"It is divided into two volumes, the upper volume is "Grandmaster List", and the second volume is "Rookie List" and "Hundred Flowers List".

"There are also sub-lists of five capitals and seventeen provinces, and a new "land list" is set up to record the masters of each province in Beijing."

"This is the "Xijing Land List".

Lu Yu introduced it in detail, and took out two more volumes from it-

One is "Grandmaster List"!

The second is "Xijing Land List"!

"Let's do it!"

Cao Xin looked at these lists, just looking at the number, and was amazed. Open the "Xijing Land List" again, but see the book at the top of the list-

No. 1 on the list of Xijing: 'Tempest Fast Sword' Duan Chong!

Duan total dart head!

Wuguan Xijing!
