Chapter 143: The Tianhe Conference (I)

"Fifth Uncle, the construction of the Lingshan stronghold is normal, and the spiritual veins have also stabilized at the second-order lower grade. Except for the occasional sporadic monster attack, there is no other situation. Just ......"

Speaking of this, Li Qingjing stopped talking.

Li Changqing glanced at him and said slowly:

"It's okay, just say what you have a problem. ”

Li Qingjing then continued to speak:

"Not long ago, we got news that the Ghoul Sect has decided to build a new Fang City near the station of their sect, and the location is on the mountain where we were stationed last time. And the Ghoul Sect is ready to invest resources to upgrade its third-order spiritual veins to the fourth order to serve as the foundation of Xinfang City. ”

"According to my second brother's speculation, the Ghoul Sect's actions this time are not small, and the disciples in the Qi cultivation period and the elders in the foundation building period in the sect are frequently active. Therefore, the scale of this Xinfang City after its completion is not expected to be at least below that of Wujiangfang City, and it is likely that it is used by the Ghoul Sect as a transit place for various resources in the Hengduan Mountain Range. ”

"Judging from their arrangement, this newly built Fang City will absorb some of the functions of Wujiangfang City, and maybe it will become the largest Fang ......City of the entire Ghoul Sect in the Hengduan Mountains in the future."

Li Changqing raised his hand to stop Li Qingjing from continuing, and asked:

"Then what do you think about this matter?"

Li Qingjing did not answer immediately, but turned his head to look at the second brother Li Qingyang beside him, and then said to the surrounding people and the patriarch Li Changqing:

"I discussed this matter with my second brother on the way back, if the family wants to get more benefits from the Ghoul Sect's actions, then ...... I'm afraid that the resources invested in the Lingshan stronghold need to be increased...... For example, the number of clansmen sent over now is not enough. ”

"In addition, when the Lingshan stronghold can start producing resources, its transportation to and from Taiqiu Mountain is also a problem. ”

"Because the avenue of the Hengduan Mountain Range has not yet been completed, the family's caravan may not be able to reach the Lingshan stronghold very smoothly. And even if the caravan could get in, the time to travel to and from Taiqiu Mountain would be too long. ”

Li Xuangang frowned when he heard the fourth uncle Li Qingjing mention this: This is indeed a difficult problem!

And Li Changqing, who was the person in charge, also pondered for a moment, and then said:

"Press this matter first, and wait until the Ghoul Sect's Fang City is completed in the future. If this is the case, the Ghoul Sect's actions must have a deep meaning. It's too big to think about it in the long run!"

"Yes. ”

Li Qingjing, who ranked fourth in the Qing generation, bowed and sat down again.

......

Looking at Li Qingyang and Li Qingjing, who were sitting upright, Li Changqing continued to speak:

"In addition, after this Tianhe Conference, Qingyang, you don't have to go to the Lingshan stronghold, just stay in the family, and it is enough for Qingjing to be in charge for the time being. The family has other arrangements for you. ”

Li Qingyang, who was sitting next to Li Qingjing, immediately replied:

Qingyang knows. ”

After receiving the reply, Li Changqing turned his head and asked Li Qingshui:

"Qing Shui, do you have any eyebrows for the drawings of the treasure ship?"

Li Qingshui's face showed a hint of gloom, and he replied in a low voice:

"Fifth Uncle, not yet, but I got the news that there may be a big operation in the recent years in the scattered cultivation of Lianchenglin from Meng Island, and if possible, there may be traces of treasure ship drawings in this operation. ”

Hearing Li Qingshui's answer, Li Changqing was not very satisfied, but now there is no way to force it.

In the end, he had to say:

"Then let's do it first! You will all stay in your respective caves for the past few days, and after four days, you will go with me to Tianhefang City to participate in the Tianhe Conference. ”

The crowd replied in unison, "Yes."

When everyone got up and left, only Li Changji was left behind.

Li Changqing looked at the eighth brother in front of him and slowly spoke:

"Changji, regarding the migration of the mortal clansmen, and the follow-up to find a way to increase the population, you have to spend a lot of time in the past few days, and it is best to come up with a rough plan after the Tianhe Conference is over. ”

"Fifth brother, rest assured. ”

After receiving the reply, Li Changqing turned around and stood with his hands in his hands.

Facing the mountain wind, his eyes were complex and profound, as if he had thousands of troubles in his heart.

As time approached day by day, the wind and clouds in the Tianhe region began to become unpredictable.

The Wutongfeng Zhao family, who is one of the five major foundation building families in Tianhefang City, has gotten some rumors in advance, and is now feeling uneasy.

......

The four days passed quickly, and Tianhefang City seemed to be very lively at this time, because this was the day when the Tianhe Conference was held.

Held every five years, the Tianhe Conference was originally intended by the five Zhuji families to distribute the benefits of the city, but now it has also become a means for them to attract scattered cultivators to come to trade.

Because from the day of the Tianhe Conference, in the next half month, not only will the five major families invest more resources in Tianhefang City to enrich the market, but also foreign scattered repairs will not charge any fees for setting up stalls on both sides of the street.

This move is somewhat similar to the free trade zone opened up by Marinafang City for Sanxiu after the treasure ship trade.

Of course, the size and scale of Tianhefang City are not as large as Binhaifang City, but for the small Xiuzhen families and the rest of the scattered cultivators whose daily activities are in the Tianhe area, this is a grand event that only happens once every five years, and they generally don't miss it.

In this half month, Tianhefang City was very lively, and many materials that could not be found on weekdays could basically be found in it.

......

The sky is high and clear, the wind is beautiful, and there are no clouds.

Today's sky seems to be exceptionally blue, blue is so pure that there is no other suitable adjective to be found except to be clean.

At this time, the scattered cultivators who participated in the Tianhe Conference began to gather in Fang City, and they had to enter as soon as the gate of Fang City opened, because in this way, they could grab a good position to set up a stall.

And the forces that have their own shops in Tianhefang City also drove large and small caravans to stop on a flat ground outside the Fang City, and they were waiting for this group of scattered cultivators to enter so that they could vacate the goods to be sold and send them to the shops in Fang City.

When there are many monks, it will inevitably be noisy and chaotic. In order to prevent people from fishing in troubled waters and creating disputes at such times, the five major families will jointly send family monks to the scene to maintain order.

At about noon, the interior of Tianhefang City was already very lively, all kinds of shouting voices were endless, and the entrance and exit of Fang City were not as crowded as in the morning.

Suddenly, a blue light streaked across the sky, leaving a long white line behind it.

When this light fell in front of the gate of Fang City, everyone could see clearly that this was a delicate and beautiful small flying boat.

Immediately after, the five monks of the foundation building period walked down from inside, and the scattered cultivators in front of them automatically made way for them, because this was the family elder of the Qingyuan Mountain Wang family.

"The Wang family really deserves to be a big family with Jindan monks, just to participate in the Tianhe Conference, they can send five elders from the foundation building period. ”

There were many scattered cultivators around who were thinking so in their hearts, and they looked at them with a hint of awe in their eyes.

The five foundation-building monks of the Wang family ignored the gazes of those scattered cultivators, and after nodding to the family monks who guarded Fang City, they entered the interior of Fang City together.

Their appearance caused a panic in Tianhefang City, because in the past, the five major foundation building families of the Tianhe Conference would only send one elder from the foundation building period to participate, why did the Wang family send five of them this time? And the leader was still their patriarch Wang Yanfan.

Wang Yanfan walked in the front, and every time he reached a street, the street would be quiet, and the scattered cultivators on both sides would stop and watch.

In the central area of Tianhefang City, there is a huge building, called Tianhe Tower, which was built by the five major foundation families, and it is also the venue for each Tianhe Conference.

Before Wang Yanfan and the elders of the clan entered the Tianhe Tower, there was another exclamation from behind.

It turned out that the monks of the foundation building period of the Hu family in Jiuhua Mountain also came. A total of three elders from the foundation building period came, and the leader was also their patriarch, Hu Yanqiu, a monk in the late foundation building period.

After waiting for a while, the elders of the foundation building period of the Pan family in Luoying Mountain also turned into two rays of light and arrived here, but the Pan family was almost the same as in previous years, except for the patriarch Pan Haijun, there was only one elder in the early stage of foundation building.

On the street that must pass from the city gate to Tianhelou, the scattered cultivators on both sides are stretching their necks and waiting, and now the Wang family of Qingyuan Mountain, the Hu family of Jiuhua Mountain, and the Pan family of Luoying Mountain have arrived, and the remaining two families believe that it will not be too late.

Sure enough, it didn't take a while, the foundation building period clansmen of the Zhao family of Wutong Peak arrived here, but the scattered cultivators on both sides inexplicably felt some emotions from them that were different from the elders of the three families before.

A casual cultivator secretly asked his friend next to him:

"Have you noticed that this elder of the Zhao family seems to have a solemn face?"

The casual cultivator who was questioned by him carefully looked at the three Zhao family's foundation building period clansmen who walked by, nodded quietly, lowered his voice, and replied in a somewhat rhetorical tone:

"Could it be that there is something important going on at this Tianhe Conference? You see that the patriarchs of these four major families actually came in person, and they were all accompanied by the family elders of the foundation building period. ”

"In the past Tianhe Conference, this situation has never occurred. ”

Another casual cultivator smiled.

"It doesn't matter what happens, if these big families fight, let's stay away, as long as we don't get affected by the pond fish, even if they fight upside down, it's none of our business. ”

The scattered cultivators around listened to the words and nodded in agreement.

The two foundation-building monks of the Zhao family in Yingshan disappeared into the eyes of the monks in Fang City under the leadership of their patriarch.

These monks knew that only the people from the Li family in Taiqiu Mountain were left in the five major families.

is the Li family who has been in the limelight in recent years.
