Chen Zhong was still expressionless.

He said, "According to your instructions, the fifteen-year-old wine that was left behind when the old city lord was alive was selected. ”

"Oh, that's good, that's good."

Chen Boyuan seemed a little absent-minded.

"Great Elder, there is one thing that I don't know if you know."

"What's the matter?"

"Chen Hongru came to ask about the process before, and said that he was ordered by you."

Chen Boyuan was suddenly stunned.

After a while, he said something hesitantly.

"Ah...... That's right, that time was a bit too ...... It's too busy, Hongru is a young man after all, he has a lot of energy, and he is doing a lot of things. ”

"That...... Chen Zhong, if there is nothing else, you can step down, I want to be alone for a while. ”

"Yes!"

Chen Zhong bowed respectfully.

After walking out of the Juyi Hall, Chen Zhong stopped at a corner of the corridor.

At this moment, a young man with a high ponytail and a loose demeanor leaned against the pillars of the corridor.

"How's it going?"

"Chen Hongru went to meet the merchant named Shen He, and I don't know what he talked about, but after Chen Hongru left, the bandits in Watao Village began to assemble and marched towards Liuli City."

"Does the young master know about this?"

"I haven't had time to tell you yet, so I didn't come to see you first, but ......"

The young man suddenly stretched and said in a nonchalant tone.

"I don't think you need to care, the young master seems to be smarter than you think."

"What do you mean?"

Chen Zhong was a little puzzled.

"When I first came, I saw that the man named Xu Changgeng was gathering outer disciples, and the young master may have been prepared a long time ago."

After hearing the young man's explanation, Chen Zhong groaned.

Then, he said: "This matter must not be sloppy, you will hurry up and inform the young master in a while, and tomorrow you and Chen Gen will protect the young master." ”

"Huh?" The young man was a little puzzled, "Didn't the young master come with Jian Zun, and he still needs us?" Besides, didn't you keep us staring at Chen Hongru? ”

"Less nonsense, let you do what you want."

Hearing this, the young man still looked like a hanger.

"Got it!"

……

Night.

Xu Changgeng led his disciples to close all the four city gates in the east, west, south and north respectively.

In order to be on the safe side, Xu Changgeng requisitioned some newly recruited manpower to supplement the defense of the city gate.

"Remember, no one is allowed to open the city gate without the order of the young master, understand?"

"Understood!"

Several new young men wore waist cards symbolizing the disciples of the Chen family on their waists, and held gongs that called the police in their hands, all of them looked full of energy.

Subsequently, Xu Changgeng allocated a group of people to be stationed at the head of the city to observe the enemy's situation.

Although it is known that those bandits do not have the equipment to siege the city, it is always right to station some people just in case.

At this moment, Xu Changgeng finally understood Chen Muyun's intentions.

It's good to have a lot of people, don't care if these people are useful or not, someone in a key position is better than no one.

After explaining, after Xu Changgeng reintegrated his disciples, he divided them into several groups and guarded several secret passages leading to the outside of the city from the west to the south of the city.

As for the one in Wanji Grain Shop, he decided to guard it himself.

Before coming, Chen Muyun specially explained to Xu Changgeng and asked him to disrupt the people who came to the inner door separately and disperse them into several teams.

First, it is to prevent the inner ghosts in these inner doors from being connected, and secondly, it is also to synthesize the overall strength.

Not to mention, because of the uneven defensive strength, it led to being caught by the opponent and stabbed in one fell swoop.

Just when Xu Changgeng was deploying the defense step by step, Chen Muyun got the relevant news synchronously.

In fact, if you want to resist the sneak attack of Shen He, you can sit back and relax once the city gate is closed and the secret passage is blocked.

But Chen Muyun didn't want to do that.

To be precise, he hoped that Shen He could bring people to sneak attack, and it was best that Shen He could come in person.

If Shen Hezai can be caught, then Chen Boyuan will be completely crushed to death.

Even if you can't catch it, you can change direction and experience the team.

You must know that these disciples of the Chen family have been in battle for many years and have not experienced battles.

Especially those inner disciples who defected to him, although they have some foundation, they have no experience at all.

After all, before those outer disciples grow up, these inner disciples will be the main fighting force.

Thinking of this, Chen Muyun couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Strength is always a necessary condition for a firm foothold!"

In fact, in the eight years of wandering, Chen Muyun has not considered establishing his own power.

But the reason why this Qingzhou realm is called the land of tigers and wolves is because the forces entrenched here have an unusual sensitivity to the new forces that have suddenly grown.

Whenever Chen Muyun's power began to take shape, he would be squeezed by the surrounding forces.

For this reason, he chose to focus on searching for intelligence.

It was indeed a little forced to take over Liulicheng at the beginning, but now that I think about it, only by really sitting firmly in Liulicheng can we be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in Qingzhou.

Otherwise, you will always be like duckweed, and you can only go with the flow.

When Chen Muyun secretly sighed.

Suddenly, a pebble flew in front of him.

There was a snap and hit the ground.

This time, Chen Muyun did not have a trace of surprise, and calmly walked over to pick up the stones on the ground.

It was still a note, and after seeing the content on it, Chen Muyun smiled faintly.

He waved his hand at the night sky.

"Thank you."

The information on the note proved Chen Muyun's previous conjecture.

Shen He is here!

Not only that, he is already a large army.

It seems that Chen Hongru chatted with him very successfully.

It is estimated that I just want to take advantage of the fact that I am going to the banquet to take advantage of the unpreparedness.

"It's just right to come, don't go back when you come."

……

Following.

The day for the feast has finally arrived.

Chen Muyun sat in the living room early.

At this moment, an outer disciple was reporting to him about the events of last night.

Although he knew that Shen He was coming, unfortunately, he didn't seem to be in a hurry to sneak into the city.

Chen Muyun put the information he got last night in an envelope.

"Give it to Xu Changgeng and tell him to be more careful."

"Yes."

After the outer disciples leave.

Zhou Tianfang approached from one side.

"Young master, why don't I go with you, it's okay to leave the matter of guarding to others."

Chen Muyun shook his head.

"These people are very important, don't make a mistake, I don't feel at ease without you."

"......"

"Don't worry."

Seeing that Zhou Tianfang was still a little worried.

Chen Muyun suddenly came to his side, lowered his voice, and told him what happened last night.

"Although the other party has not appeared, I can feel that he has always been by my side like you."

Chen Muyun patted Zhou Tianfang's shoulder.

"Boss Zhou, success or failure is today, I don't want anything to go wrong."

Hearing this, Zhou Tianfang sighed.

"Please rest assured, as long as the old decay remains, it will never live up to the trust of the young master."

"That's good."

Chen Muyun smiled with satisfaction.

At this moment, a maid suddenly ran in.

"Young master, housekeeper Chen Zhong has arrived ......"
