A group of guards followed Chen Xi into Blue Star City, and the city gate creaked shut. After the fat man who claimed to be from the Song family of the Nine Gates of Jianghu struggled to stand up, he ran outside the city gate and scolded. Originally, the armor on the city wall wanted to shoot a few arrows to force him to leave, but later it was pointless to waste talisman arrows on such people. After everyone was tired of scolding, the fat man sat on the ground and gasped, Chen Xi asked someone for a piece of silver and threw it down, and shouted another one.

The fat man was furious, stood up and continued to scold, scolded for a while and felt that something was wrong, and left in a huff.

Chen Xi turned around and asked the leader of the guards, "You haven't been able to enter Tianshu City?"

The leader of the guards nodded: "I can't get in, now that Tianshu City has opened the Heaven and Earth Great Array, don't say that outsiders can't enter, even the ordinary people in the city have been driven out." Millions of people were just outside the Heavenly Pivot City, begging all day long but no one heeded. ”

Chen Xi sighed, although he was able to figure out the so-called big people in Tianshu City with the greatest amount of malice. But when he heard about such a thing, he still felt a chill in his heart.

"You go to General Lai Hao, as long as you are willing to contribute to the defense of the city, you will be a member of Blue Star City from today onwards. It's far safer here than anywhere else, and I, as the lord of the city, will do my best to keep everyone in the city safe. But no one is entitled to sit back and enjoy it with me. ”

"Understood. ”

The captain of the guard agreed, and took his men to find Lai Hao. The personal strength of these guards is not bad, and with a little training, they can go to the city to defend against the enemy. At this time, Lai Hao sent people from the north gate to rush over, saying that there were more than 1,000 sturdy men from outside the north gate, all wearing green clothes and with straight knives tied to their backs. Chen Xi was stunned when he heard this, and instantly thought of the Strange Guest Hall.

After he rushed to the north gate, he looked outside, and the men outside were indeed from the Stranger Hall. I didn't expect them to come so quickly, but Haoyue City, which was arranged for them to go to at the beginning, should have heard some news, so they turned around and came to Blue Star City. But that's okay, Chen Xi originally had to send someone to look for them.

Then Chen Xi was a little surprised to find that the team leader was actually Ao Qian and Guo Fangniu. Behind them, Meow, Dog, Sukan and others were there. It stands to reason that several of them should have followed King Liling Lin Qi to Haoyue City again, but they didn't expect to come here. Chen Xi asked people to open the city gate and personally went down to welcome them in.

"Fortunately, we didn't just rush along the way, but kept asking for news. I heard that the new city lord in Blue Star City is surnamed Chen, and he is known as the Dark Judgment, so we didn't dare to go to Haoyue City again, so we went straight to Blue Star City. ”

Ao Qian said with some excitement: "Originally, according to the master's arrangement, we should go to Haoyue City." But there was a great change in Tianshu City that day, the masters under the King of Liling and the King of Pingjiang fought fiercely, and they were also injured. ”

Sukan sniffled behind him and said, "I thought the master didn't want us anymore. ”

Chen Xi laughed: "Something happened, I was going to arrange someone to look for you, but you yourself came." You have been with me for so long, how have I ever abandoned you?"

Ao Qian said: "One thousand two hundred and sixty-eight disciples of the Strange Guest Hall, salute the hall master!"

Chen Xi looked at the men in the Strange Guest Hall, and clasped his fists: "Everyone follow me into the city, and Blue Star City will be our home in the future!"

"Meet the Hall Master!"

More than 1,000 men knelt down on one knee neatly and made a big salute. When Chen Xi left Tianshu City, there were six or seven hundred people in the Yike Hall. After this period of development, the scale has doubled. Although these men are not highly cultivated, they are all extremely strong.

"Get up. ”

Chen Xi asked everyone to enter the city and sent people to arrange a place to live. Blue Star City has gone through several disasters, and many buildings in the city are damaged, but fortunately, Blue Star City is big enough and there are many houses.

Ao Qian followed behind Chen Xi and said, "It's not just us here, it's more than ten miles away from Blue Star City, and the old neighbors have followed. When they heard that we were going to find you, master, they all gathered together to come with them. At least 70,000 or 80,000 of the villagers who had been seized by the household government came. ”

"The subordinates didn't dare to rush to bring them over directly, and let them wait for news in the north for the time being. In addition, the master, what you see is not all the people in our strange guest hall. After the old neighbors moved out of Tianshu City, many men were willing to join the Yiketang to do things. After screening, there are now a total of 3,600 disciples, and the rest are with the people. ”

Chen Xi was overjoyed: "Since the villagers are here, then they will all be brought into the city." It was not long ago that a residence was prepared for ordinary people who had no combat power, which just came in handy. ”

Ao Qian immediately arranged for people to go back and bring all the nearly 100,000 people. The scale of Blue Star City is large enough, even if there is no forbidden area created by Chen Xi, it is more than enough to live in Blue Star City

In the restricted area.

Chen Xi watched the people work enthusiastically, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. When I first went to the Strange Guest Hall, it was originally just to win the trust of the Secret Law Division and track down the affairs of the Mantian Sect back then. At that time, I never thought that this group of villagers would trust me like this. They had come all the way from Tianshu City, and they had suffered a lot, just because they felt they could protect them.

"When the villagers' dwellings were built, I sent people to distribute food seeds to them. It's safe here, so they can live in a solid place. In addition"

Chen Xi pointed to a medicinal field not far away: "The spiritual grass planted there is very important, you choose a group of careful people to take care of it." I will find someone to teach them how to plant and cultivate, and I must not be careless. ”

Ao Qian nodded: "The subordinates will arrange it when they turn around." ”

Chen Xi said: "The men who can practice in the Yike Hall are all selected to temporarily join General Lai Hao's army. I'll write some basic exercises later, and I'll train more on weekdays. As for the men who are strong but unable to practice, they stay here to maintain order. The most important thing is to protect the spiritual grass and tell the villagers not to pick it at will. These spiritual grasses are all used to save lives in the future. ”

Ao Qian said: "Don't worry, the master will strictly restrain them." ”

Chen Xi nodded, and then pointed to a white sand beach not far away: "That's silver snow sand, which also has the effect of healing injuries." Folks, build houses, don't use them"

He looked at the forbidden area that was gradually bustling, and his heart was happy.

"Tell me about the situation in Tianshu City. ”

Chen Xi said: "What happened before you left Tianshu City. ”

Ao Qian replied: "Soon after you left, the people of the King of Pingjiang came to find us, but fortunately their target was not us, so we took the opportunity to get out. Because the fierce battle of that kind of great cultivator was too terrifying, we didn't dare to stay and watch the battle. It was only later that I heard that Liling King Lin Qizhong alone killed all the cultivators sent by King Pingjiang, but he was also seriously injured. Then he didn't dare to stay longer, and left with Ning Ji. ”

"When we were hiding in that small courtyard in Xicheng, we heard that Wang Shun of Anyang stole the Holy Emperor's heirloom jade seal, and also took away the body of the Holy Queen, and then evacuated Tianshu City. The subordinates just didn't understand a little, since the national teacher had already made a move, why would he let King Anyang leave with the jade seal and the body of the holy queen?"

Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "Perhaps, he doesn't care about these things at all. ”

Ao Qian said: "Even if he doesn't care, King Pingjiang definitely cares." Judging from the fact that King Pingjiang sent people to intercept and kill Ning Ji, King Pingjiang's power in Tianshu City is still very large. Therefore, the subordinates suspected that King Anyang left safely, perhaps because of the deliberate connivance of the national teacher. ”

Chen Xi frowned slightly: "You mean, King Anyang was let go by the national teacher?"

Ao Qian nodded: "The subordinates think so, but it's just random speculation." If the national teacher can destroy a huge family like the Guan family and the Zisang family, can't he stop King Anyang from leaving?"

Chen Xi pondered for a while and said, "If you speculate, the departure of Anyang Wang Shun lì was permissive by the national teacher. So what is the purpose of the national teacher?"

Ao Qian was originally a person with a very good brain, and he thought a lot about doing nothing in a hurry these days. After Chen Xi asked him, he said according to his own train of thought: "My subordinates heard that the Holy Emperor of Great Chu had great trust in the national teacher at the beginning. Since this is the case, then the Holy Emperor originally wanted to appoint King Anyang as his successor, and the national teacher naturally knew about it. ”

"But the national teacher bears such a big infamy and supports the succession of King Pingjiang, what does this have to do with himself? His subordinates suspect that the national teacher killed the Guan family and the Sang family not for the sake of the King of Pingjiang, but for himself. In other words, there is no particularly deep connection between the succession of King Pingjiang and the killing of the national teacher. ”

Chen Xi nodded: "You continue." ”

Ao Qian said: "If this is the case, it means that the national teacher doesn't care about the king of Pingjiang at all." Then Anyang Wang Shun lì left Tianshu City and went to Haoyue City. He also took away the jade seal of the country and the body of the holy queen. Orthodoxy speaking, King Anyang is the successor who should be recognized by everyone. So the subordinates thought that this could be a deception arranged by the national teacher?"

Chen Xi's face changed slightly: "You mean, the national teacher actually wants King Anyang to succeed to the throne, and let King Pingjiang succeed to the throne, just to deal with some crisis." When the crisis is over, it is still King Anyang who is the Holy Emperor. ”

Ao Qian said: "That's what the subordinates think, and in addition, the subordinates can't think of any other reasonable explanation." The king of Anyang went to Haoyue City, and the king of Pingjiang succeeded to the throne of the Holy Emperor. Then the crisis of the Yuan Beast, the entire Great Chu and even the entire Tianfu Continent will watch how the King of Pingjiang responds. King Anyang can develop his strength with peace of mind, and he only needs to ensure that he survives this crisis. ”

I have to say that Ao Qian's mind is really not simple.

"That's right. ”

Ao Qian said: "There is another thing we heard before we left Tianshu City, Lin Qicheng disbanded the Dark Law Division, and Wanhou Yanyulou was seriously injured after being besieged and was locked in a secret prison. In addition to him, Qianjue Yun Feiyao didn't seem to be dead, and was also locked up. The people loyal to the faction of Yanyulou in the Dark Law Division are all missing. Lin Qicheng once ordered to get rid of all the ruling of the Dark Law Division, but then he gave up for some reason. Come to think of it, most of it is related to the national teacher. ”

Chen Xi breathed a long sigh of relief: "It seems that your guess should be right, the national teacher does not kill Yan Yulou and others, but keeps it for the king of Anyang." ”R1058
