"The old man understood the meaning of Ming Changshi, but he felt that it was difficult to control the Ji family after cooperating with the Governor's Mansion, so he needed to support a new merchant force to compete with the Ji family and maintain the commercial balance of the entire Longzhou. But with all due respect, none of the people here are Ji Zibai's opponents in business, which will disappoint Ming Changshi. ”

Ming Gongling finally spoke at this time, "It really surprised me that the head of the Li family admitted so frankly that it was not as good as Ji Zibai. ”

The head of the Li family said: "This is not a shameful thing. ”

Ming Gongling smiled: "Even if you tie you up together, you can't compare to him?" ”

"Back then, there was no one in the entire Jianping City who was in the limelight like Ji Zibai."

"The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and if you can't keep any young people, the myth of Jiujiang's invincibility will be ended."

The head of the Li family didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, and said: "No matter what, I won't smash the family down until I am sure of victory." ”

In the eyes of others, the head of the Li family seems to be frightened by Ji Zibai, and he has no courage to fight at all, but Ming Gongling understands that all this is because of the family, one wrong step, and there is no turning back if he fails.

"What the head of the Li family said is true, but he is not invincible, otherwise he would not have hid at home and retreated, and he didn't come out until yesterday."

The head of the Li family said in surprise: "He is out of the customs?" ”

No one can understand Ji Zibai's predicament better than the head of the Li family, just like what he is experiencing now. If according to Ji Zibai's temperament, if he goes out, it will be equivalent to making up his mind and going all the way to the dark. Who gave Ji Zibai confidence? Is it the Ming Gong Spirit in front of you?

The head of the Li family pondered to himself, but Ming Gongling continued: "That's true, I think this is a certain blow to you, in recent years, the days without Ji Zibai's oppression should still be comfortable, after all, even a rough person like the rich man Ning can make a lot of money." ”

The heads of the family were indifferent, in front of Ji Zibai, they really had no chance of winning, and how much of a deal they could get depends on the arrangement of the Ji family.

Ming Gongling said: "Now the Miojiang Canal will be opened soon, and this Miojiang River will lead directly to the hinterland of the Jiaozhou Demon Kingdom." The Demon Kingdom has now completely opened up exchanges with Tianfu, and once we master this route, we will inevitably have a lot of money. ”

The head of the Li family said: "We naturally know this, but the Ji family also knows that the old man really wants to hear the arrangement of Ming Changshi and how we can defeat Ji Zibai." ”

Ming Gongling said with a smile: "The Li family master and the Chen family master should know best that there are often accidents on this Mio River route, and there are water monster attacks. ”

The head of the Li family did not deny it, "That's right, if it weren't for the Cao Gang also taking this route and cleaning up a lot of water monsters, we wouldn't be able to deal with it alone." Now even the income of the Ji family on the Mio River route will also be given to the Cao Gang, so we still do not have any advantage. ”

"That's the problem, as long as we get a good grasp of the waterways, build another batch of big ships, and exclude the planners. Even if the planner and the Cao gang collude, in terms of cost, we still have an advantage. ”

The head of the Li family didn't expect Ming Gongling to be so whimsical, "How could the Cao Gang share their channel with us?" ”

"Don't worry, Master Li, and listen to me slowly. According to the information I have received, the water monster in the Mio River still has some origins, and its name is called 'Wukang Fish', which is a product of the creation of evil gods. ”

"Evil God!"

All the heads of the house were shocked, and there would be no good results related to the evil gods, so they immediately retreated.

"There are evil monsters in the river, so what business do we do, don't die."

"Lord Ming, we are just doing some small business, and it is more reliable to find the Mountain Sect for this kind of thing to eliminate the Demon Guardian Dao, so we will not get involved."

Ming Gongling raised his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, and after some tossing, no one dared not to give face to Ming Changshi, so they all closed their mouths and listened to what he wanted to say.

Ming Gongling said: "Don't be afraid, since I learned the news, I rushed here day and night, and secretly brought the elite of Lingwei over, in order to exterminate all the water monsters, so that the waters of the Mio River can be restored to peace." As for why it is hidden, you may have already guessed. ”

The head of the Li family pondered for a moment and said, "No wonder Lord Ming neither looked for Xuanming Dao nor looked for the nearest Mountain Sect, in order not to give the Cao Gang a chance to find out and interfere." Once the water monster is eliminated in the name of the Governor's Palace, we can bypass the Cao Gang and share the benefits of shipping. ”

Ming Gongling said with a smile: "That's true, what the head of the Li family said is true, but he also needs a few symbolic monks from each family to help us clear the obstacles." This is an unprecedented big business opportunity, a big opportunity, if you want to grasp it, as we said before, become the official business of my Longzhou Governor's Mansion, although there are some restrictions, but the benefits are more. If you don't agree, I won't retaliate against you, but there will be no more share in the shipping matter. Consider it, and at noon, just send me a letter of approval. ”

The heads of the families immediately discussed, and finally the sixteen chambers of commerce led by the Li family joined the ranks of Longzhou officials and businessmen, accounting for eighty percent of the total. Their combined wealth is several times that of the Ji family, but they need to be digested slowly, but it is not as easy as the Ji family to tear off the whole piece of meat in one bite.

……

The sun rose and shone warmly on people, and Ji Wenyi was much more comfortable. The little junior brother has been away for a while, and he should tell Uncle Hao about the matter soon, so that there should be no problem with the Ji family. It's just that the three of them are still not out of danger. Yao Yi and Zhang Xingwen's true qi cultivation is very high, and the impact of true qi disorder is naturally greater, and they can only recover a little bit of combing, but outsiders can't help anything, so they can only wait.

Although Ji Wenyi did not have Zhang Xingwen's magic eye and You Ziji's five senses to detect the crisis in advance, he could use some simple formations to spread around, and once it was triggered, it would prove that the pursuers were coming.

The more worried about what would happen, suddenly, a formation that was connected with Ji Wenyi's mind was activated, and the location was by the river, and it was the Wu Kangyu who caught up.

He was not afraid at all when he mentioned the Golden Sword Imperial Canopy, but once Wu Kangyu crossed him and attacked Yao Yi and Zhang Xingwen, it would definitely have inevitable damage and impact on them, and it seemed that he still needed to think of a way. If it is said that the most common means of fighting the enemy in Xuanming Dao, in addition to the sword technique, it is the sword array.

Ji Wenyi's ability to control his divine consciousness can't rely on one person to put out the world-famous Golden Light Sword Formation Technique, or in other words, among the Xuan Ming Dao Xuan Realm disciples, there is only one Zhang Xingwen who can put out the Golden Light Sword Formation Technique alone. But the slightly more ordinary Sancai Sword Formation is not difficult, not to mention that he also has two excellent helpers. Ji Wenyi took out two sword talismans, and after activating them, they were placed in front of Yao Yi and Zhang Xingwen respectively, and he himself stood at the forefront. He could use some of the true qi of his senior sister and senior brother who overflowed his body to simulate the true qi of the two people to complete the internal circulation of the Sancai Sword Formation. If the enemy attacks the two behind him, Ji Wenyi can rely on the three-talent sword formation to carry on the damage without interrupting the luck of the two.

As soon as the arrangement was completed, those martial arts fish really came in groups, but fortunately, they were only some elites in the foundation building realm, and the higher-level martial arts fish had not yet appeared.

……

You Ziji crossed the mountains and mountains, and finally returned to Ji's house, he didn't have time to rest, so he went directly to the fourth senior brother.

"Senior brother, senior brother."

You Ziji shouted anxiously, and even Hao Lianfeng and the others heard it, Hao Lianfeng felt something, and as soon as his body turned around, he came to You Ziji's side and asked, "You boy, what happened?" ”

He raised his eyes again and asked, "What about your senior sister and senior brother?" ”

You Ziji then panted and said: "We saw the ritual held by the cultists of the evil god on the sandbank, and we also saw the queen of the strange fish, we worked together to kill it, and then we were chased by other strange fish. Senior Sister Yao and Senior Brother Zhang were injured, and they were exercising their skills in a mountain forest by the river, and Senior Brother Ji was guarding them. ”

Hao Lianfeng was an impatient, and immediately said, "Good boy, you did a good job." Where are they, you lead the way, boy, and we'll take them back. ”

"Good ......"

As soon as Xu Zilai and Ji Zibai came here, they saw You Ziji, who had not finished speaking, fainted and fell to the ground.

Ji Zibai said: "This kid must be tired, help him in and rest." ”

Hao Lianfeng picked You Ziji up, but said, "That's not right! No matter what you say, You Boy is also a foundation building monk, and his foundation is even more solid after being trained by Dongfang Ming, how can he be so prostration.

He put You Ziji on the bed, reached out to catch his pulse, frowned, and said a little incredulously: "Curse?!" ”

Xu Zilai and Ji Zibai were also extremely surprised, "Curse, isn't that the master's mastery?" The last war between good and evil should have wiped them out. ”

Hao Lianfeng said: "You boy must have encountered the remnants of the evil god believers, but I don't know what means and what kind of medium he used to curse him.

As he spoke, Hao Lianfeng looked at You Ziji's chest, and when he saw the bulging bulge on it, his heart moved, and he immediately reached out and took out the contents inside. You Ziji himself refined the elixir and talisman Hao Lianfeng knew it, but the two secret books were not owned by Xuan Ming Dao. He immediately understood, took the secret book in his hand, and saw that the word "Gangzhang" was written on it, but there was no problem. The rest of the other Pure Spirit Skill directly brought Hao Lianfeng a very weird feeling.

Hao Lianfeng was bold, and directly grabbed the book, but saw that there was a cloud of black gas on it, which should be the source of the curse in the wandering Ziji, and he was forced by the deep spiritual power on Hao Lianfeng's body to directly show his figure. Without delay, he directly used the book as a guide, and then injected spiritual power into You Ziji's body, forcing the curse out of the body, and returning to the book with the familiar breath.

The curse can be easily destroyed when it leaves the body, but this will alarm the caster, Hao Lianfeng and the Ji family asked for a pottery bowl, and forced the source of the curse into the bowl, and the black gas it turned into flowed into the bowl like flowing water. Hao Lianfeng took out a talisman, peeled off a layer of cinnabar on it, and drew a circle around the edge of the pottery bowl, and immediately a translucent barrier sealed it, and no matter how much the black qi tossed, it couldn't come out.

Without the curse, You Ziji also woke up faintly, his memory was a little blurred due to the previous influence, Hao Lianfeng told everything that happened after he entered the Ji family, and asked, "Who is the person who gave you this book?" ”

You Ziji replied: "It's a strange man named Ding Ling, who has to give me exercises and include me in his sect." ”

Hao Lianfeng hurriedly asked, "What sect?" ”

"Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, have you heard of it?"

Hao Lianfeng thought about it carefully and shook his head, then looked at Xu Zilai and Ji Zibai, the two of them didn't know.

Ji Zibai said: "It is likely to be the new name of the Evil God Believer Organization, give me a while, and I am happy to find some information." ”

Hao Lianfeng said: "I'll talk about these later, as I think, this Wukangyu must have been done by the evil god believers, but it was disturbed by my disciples, not to mention whether the evil god believers will hunt them down, even if the Wukangyu dies, the mother fish may not give up." Old man, you can inform the Cao Gang now, I'm afraid that Wu Kangyu's revenge will come sooner than we thought. I'm going to pick up the kids. ”

Xu Zilai said: "I will go with Brother Ji so as not to encounter danger." ”

Ji Zibai waved his hand and said, "No, if you follow me to the Cao Gang, I'm afraid they will suspect that we have ulterior motives." ”

Hao Lianfeng said: "Now that the situation is grim, it's always good to be cautious." ”

Ji Zibai had no choice but to agree to Xu Zilai to follow.

Hao Lianfeng saw that You Ziji had almost recovered after driving away the curse, so he said, "Let's go and save people." ”

You Ziji said: "I'll lead the way, but Uncle Hao can return the cheats to me first." ”

Hao Lianfeng said with a smile: "I know that you kid has fallen in love with Gangzhang, take it to study, but this pure spirit skill can't be given to you, this is a way to take a shortcut, if you let Uncle Dongfang know that you use this breakthrough, will he break the vow?" ”

You Ziji was a little curious, "Breaking the ring? Is that what is it going to do, to get out of the mountain? ”

"That's right, according to his previous character, he will kill all the people of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect."

You Ziji was indifferent after hearing this, Uncle Dongfang used to be so popular.

As he walked, You Ziji suddenly asked, "Senior Uncle, what about the fourth senior brother?" ”

"Oh, he went to the Mountain Sect to find help."

……

Jianping City, in the Shanzong Manor, Bao Shan brought back the four people of Quansheng, Quanzhang, Quanshan, and Quanzhi together, in addition to these four disciples, there were other disciples who had good cultivation and were also gathered in the main hall.

De Poor, De Jing, after carefully examining the corpse in front of him, he has already made a judgment in his heart.

De Poor said: "Master Bao, as you said, this is indeed Wu Kangyu, could it be that there is really a power of evil god believers near our Jianping City?" ”

Tokui thought for a while and said, "The eldest disciple of Xuanming Dao, Chang Yun Bai's nephew, is now in the Northern Wilderness to solve the revived evil god altar, and he went to the Northern Wilderness to inform the Seven Daomen of the things related to the evil gods. It's not surprising that this kind of thing has happened in Jianping City now. But I don't know if our current strength can withstand the impact of Wu Kangyu, and whether we need to go back to the sect to ask for reinforcements. ”

Bao Shan said: "This is still unclear, we know too little information, if we can find the location of my junior brother who found Wu Kangyu, we may be able to find more clues." ”

De Poor said: "Since this is the case, I will let the full name lead a group of disciples to assist you first, I will send a message to inform the sect master of the matter here, so that the sect can prepare, once there is a change, I will immediately support it, so as not to cause a catastrophe, if Xuan Ming Dao can also deal with it, then it is basically worry-free." ”

"I have already sent a message to inform the sect, presumably the head of the sect will respond soon."

……

At noon, Ming Gongling had a rough meal with the sixteen family heads who had just become partners, and then hurried back to Mingyue Villa.

When I entered the house, I heard someone say, "Master Ming is really busy." ”

Someone can talk to him like this in Ming Gongling's room, and if someone else hears it, his jaw will definitely drop, but this person's voice can only be heard by Ming Gongling alone.

Although Ming Gongling knew this person, he really didn't have too much anxiety, and the two sides only had the same interests to have this short-term cooperation.

"Didn't you say don't come to me, there are many Moon Gazing Realm monks in this Jianping City, aren't you afraid of being exposed?"

The man said: "You have a low realm, you don't know the Moon Gazing Realm, and the Moon Gazing Realm is not the same as the Moon Gazing Realm, and the difference is very big. In Jianping City, except for the old way of virtue and poverty of the Mountain Sect, no one else can enter my eyes. ”

Ming Gongling couldn't frighten this person, and his tone was no longer so tough, "Then you shouldn't come in person, if there is really something, let your disciple, or find someone close to you to go into the city to spread the message." ”

The man sneered when he heard this, "You think I can't control it." ”

Ming Gongling was noncommittal.

The man's tone changed suddenly, and a tyrannical aura instantly filled the entire room, "It's not because you have nothing but chaos here. ”

This breath made the Ming Gong Ling, who had always been very good in the city government, seem to have evil thoughts in the depths of his heart. Ming Gongling hurriedly removed the evil thoughts in his mind, and after restraining his emotions with all his might, he tried to maintain a calm tone and said, "What are you talking about? ”

The man sneered and said, "Except for such a big thing, you still don't know about it?" Aren't you afraid that our efforts will fall short? ”

Without waiting for Ming Gongling to refute, the man directly threw out a message that made Ming Gongling stunned, "The Wukang fish are out of control, their riot has occurred in advance, and they will attack tonight." ”

Ming Gongling immediately slumped in his chair when he heard this, if this was the case, wouldn't his efforts for half a month be in vain? I am afraid that the official business that has just signed will not be allies soon.

"Didn't you say you could control the school of Wukang fish? Why is it like this now? ”

The man roared, "Who knows what the people you sent have done, they killed the motherfish, and now any control methods are useless." ”

"What, the mother fish is dead, how is it possible? What about the people I sent? ”

"I haven't even found the body."

Ming Gongling lost his temper for a moment and then returned to his previous state, but his exhaustion could be seen in his eyes.

"In that case, then we can only change our plan, just tonight, I want to stop the extermination of Wu Kangyu, and you can do whatever you want."

Hearing this, the man said, "I hope you can carry it over, as long as your number is reduced to a certain level, I can intervene to stop Wu Kangyu's action." ”

"I hope so."

If this person doesn't want to take the opportunity to kill the army and occupy the entire Jianping City. If there is a chance, Ming Gongling will definitely wipe out this person together.

……

After Ji Wenyi slashed dozens of swords in a row, he completed an extremely impressive record, at least nearly a hundred ordinary martial arts fish died under his sword, and the price was the Sancai Sword Formation, Yao Yi and Zhang Xingwen The true qi collected by the sword talisman in front of them had all been exhausted, and now they entered a dilemma, and they didn't dare to cause Yao Yi and Zhang Xingwen to be affected by their luck before the exam.

But there are more and more martial arts fish around him, once the encirclement is narrowed, with Ji Wenyi's ability, I am afraid that he will not be able to take care of all aspects.

Just when he was worried, a streamer fell with the tail of the flame, Ji Wenyi looked carefully, but it was a burning hammer, and the only person who could use this kind of strange weapon nearby was Hao Lianfeng.

Sure enough, the next moment, Hao Lianfeng took You Ziji to the three of them, "What's wrong with the two of them?" ”

Ji Wenyi hurriedly said: "They were affected by the sound waves of the Strange Fish Queen, which disrupted the operation of True Qi, and they are recovering. ”

Hao Lianfeng said: "It's not a big problem, when I dispose of the Wukang fish here, I'm helping the two of them." ”

After that, Hao Lianfeng rose into the sky, how many enemies could he see when he stood on the shore, and he flew in the air and stood high and looked far away to know the enemy's deployment.

There are countless Wukang fish in the river rushing to the shore, Hao Lianfeng is not polite when he sees this, the imperial envoy slammed down with a fire hammer, and fell on the head of Wukang fish, the huge pressure did not dare to beat them into meat sauce, and the flames on them burned them to ashes, and dozens of Wukang fish were solved with just one move, among which there were many Xuan Realm levels, Hao Lianfeng didn't even need to look for weaknesses and directly killed them with hard power.

After blocking the Wukangyu attacking the disciples from the riverbank, he aimed his gaze at the river again, and still smashed it down with a hammer, making a deep pit again, exposing a large number of Wukangyu hidden in it, and killing it directly.

Subsequently, Hao Lianfeng landed anew, and said to Ji Wenyi: "You have stabbed a hornet's nest, the best people who came to chase you just now are five or six hundred martial arts fish, and I got rid of a large part of them." This is not a place to stay for a long time, they will definitely continue to attack until they enter Jianping City, and we will go back first and organize people to garrison in advance. Ji boy, take out the canopy I gave you, you may need it tonight. ”

Ji Wenyi hurriedly untied the canopy behind him and handed it to Hao Lianfeng.

But when he saw Hao Lianfeng unfurling the canopy, a large piece of treasure instantly appeared, which was more and thicker than when Ji Wenyi was at his peak. The treasure aura filled the four disciples and wrapped Hao Lianfeng together, and then went straight to the sky, and the five of them left together.

Hao Lianfeng's strength was naturally superb, and in the blink of an eye, they returned to the Ji family. But You Ziji needs a morning, and even Ji Wenyi's flight takes a quarter of an hour.

After they landed, Hao Lianfeng immediately went to Ji Longxiang to arrange defense.
