If you connect Lidu and Chang'an City into a line, then a long distance to the east near the one-third node of Lidu, you can see a region shrouded in clouds and mist, as if the sky and the earth are connected, this is Yunmengze.

Yunmengze is a very magical place, except for large and small lakes and swamps, there are not many solid land. There are all kinds of exotic flowers and plants growing here, a considerable part of which are poisonous, and there are some poisonous miasma in some places, with different toxicity and different effects. There are strange flowers and plants, and naturally there are all kinds of birds and animals, a considerable number of which are very rare species, and even have spirit species living in them.

There is no doubt that Yunmengze is a fairyland on earth, beautiful and rich, full of opportunities. But it is also a terrifying place, killing people invisibly, even eating people without spitting out bones.

Here, it is easy for people to get lost, although the light of the sun can illuminate Yun Mengze during the day, but those lights are also the result of being processed by the clouds, although people in Yun Mengze can see a certain range of things around their bodies, but they can't see where the sun is. For people who are not familiar with the situation here, not only does Yun Mengze have no reference that can discern the direction, but even his own intuition, the compass does not work, no matter how good you are at identifying the direction, it is useless, because this is Yun Mengze.

Because of this characteristic, Yun Mengze is actually not friendly to outsiders, and even kills step by step, and he will die here if he is not careful. Therefore, wealth is often accompanied by crises, unspeakable crises, crises that come from Yunmengze itself, and threats from people inside Yunmengze...... Although for those who live near Yunmengze and live on Yunmengze, the latter does not exist, whether it is Mengze's relics or Guan Qingyue's side, they will not refuse them to find opportunities in Yunmengze in order to live, after all, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, heaven and earth give birth to all things, and have the virtue of a good life, they can't monopolize Yunmengze just because they have strength, this is immoral and ruining luck.

But for the invaders, the combination of location and the advantage of people is enough to give them a headache to death, and even to the point of creating the feeling that the world is directed at us.

Therefore, when Zhong Zhen was not successful in using troops against Yun Mengze, it was not just because they were weaker, Zhong Zhen at that time was not as low as it is now, and he still had a certain amount of combat effectiveness, but it was too dangerous and unwise to fight in Yun Mengze.

Therefore, the expedition to Yunmengze, even if there are many masters now, the powerful Lidu will not easily make decisions to do it, the risk is high but the return is low, of course, the main reason is that it is not about themselves, there are not enough interests to drive them to do so, whether it is false name or real profit, only with the appeal of Bai Lao, it is impossible to organize people. After all, people are very realistic, it is impossible to work hard for free, and Fu Changan will call for it, and the person who likes the future cooperative relationship with the Fu family will definitely give face, after all, you are silent when people need it, and you want to share the soup when people pay dividends, is it possible?

It is worth mentioning that although Yunmengze can't see the sun, he can see the moon at night, and the moonlight in Yunmengze is extremely beautiful, which is intoxicating.

It's just that not everyone is in the mood to appreciate this beautiful scenery, for example, the other three Taibao under Guan Qingyue's hand couldn't sit still after hearing that Guan Qingyue sent someone to kill Wang Gang, and rushed to Yunmengze to ask Guan Qingyue for an explanation.

No way, they're scared.

Wang Gang had a small move, so he died. The freedom that Guan Qingyue has given them over the years has been so excessive that they have not even kept the three chapters of the original agreement between Guan Qingyue and them, you must know that Guan Qingyue's request is already very lenient, and it basically belongs to the kind of demand that has no requirements, but even so, they still crossed the line.

"Boss Guan, I heard that you let people kill Wang Gang, and you also have to entertain the lackeys of the imperial court, and even apologize?" In Guan Qingyue's study, one of the three Taibao, the eldest Taibao Lei Mo took the lead in asking.

The other two also echoed one after another, saying that it would be too embarrassing for Lvlin, after all, if they really fought, Lvlin would not instigate them.

"Yes, I killed Wang Gang, and I have to give a banquet to Li Jinming, and even apologize, what's wrong?" Guan Qingyue sat steadily in the Taishi chair, he was eight feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, his eyebrows and eyes were rough and full of masculinity, and he was not angry and arrogant.

"We, we just want to know why? After all, Zhongzhen is weak, we don't need to be afraid of them, and the rivers and lakes may not organize any forces to resist, a group of stragglers are brave, not to be afraid. But if you admit it like this, the brothers won't look good when they mix up in the future, right?" The second Taibao is resolute and resolute, he is the more sleek of the four, but inexplicably he is also the most rule-abiding one, except for one forced helplessness over the years, he has never broken the ring.

"Face, face, eh, old man, face is earned by yourself, people can't be shameless and can't be too embarrassed. I know that this incident may make the brothers below unable to raise their heads in front of others, but for thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the middle of Zhen for a while, don't bully the rivers and lakes are not aligned!

If Li Jinming really dies in Xiongling, whether it is Zhongzhen or Jianghu, he will not give up, and the battle of Yunmengze will definitely start again, don't forget what I am here for, to protect Yunmengze!

Of course, this is not the key reason, and you should not think that I am old, useless, and brave again. When I took in the four of you, I said the same thing to you, and we all set the same rules. We live by the filial piety of the merchants and passers-by, who are our food and clothing parents, and we must not change the quota at will, embarrass them at will, or kill them at will...... Finally, I also said that if you strictly abide by my requirements, no matter what kind of trouble you get into because of this, I, Guan Qingyue, will help you carry it, and if I Guan Qingyue does not die, this trouble will not be counted until a proper solution is obtained.

I remember all of this, but why did I kill Wang Gang this time? Guan Qingyue said with a feeling of nostalgia, and many years have passed in a flash.

"Did he cross the line?" Reimer said what everyone had already guessed.

"It's not as simple as he crossed the line, it's just bold! Thanks to the county officials around Xiongling, Zhong Zhen is willing to give me some thin noodles and tolerate him to this incident. Guan Qingyue was very angry when he talked about this, and even slapped the table.

The three of them were taken aback, and Reimer gave the fourth security guard Bei Li a look and motioned for him to ask what the situation was.

An Beili secretly complained, Boss Guan was obviously angry, and he would be scolded if he didn't ask well, but the other two people had spoken, and it was not good for him not to say anything, so he had to ask hard: "Boss Guan, don't be angry, it's not worth it for that guy, or you tell us what he did and vent your emotions?"

"He has raised a group of people in private, burning, killing, looting, robbing and stealing, doing everything, but on the surface it has nothing to do with him, although it is not very rampant, but over the years, I don't know how much blood and sin there are on his hands. This is not the most hateful, the most infuriating thing is that he is too conceited, obviously the handle is in the hands of others, and he is forced to help others make a few transactions, but he still does not stop the previous business, and even thinks that he can fight back, but unfortunately he fell into the trap of another group of people, worshiped them as masters, and wanted to trap Yun Mengze, Lu Lin and the first person to grasp his handle and the power of Lidu.

I said at the beginning, under my command, I don't ask you to be dead set on me, to Lulin, to Yunmengze, if you don't want to do it, you can wash your hands, if you want to continue to mix, follow me, or find a partner. You can have your own little Jiujiu, after all, people don't kill for themselves, but they can't eat inside and outside, harming everyone's interests, who is much more noble than whom?

Of course, I will not only kill him, but I will also clean up his subordinates, and I will not leave any of those who do evil, and I should kill and punish them, do you really think that if you enter the green forest, you can do evil and act recklessly? The green forest accepts people who cannot live in a normal life, not evil scoundrels who kill even children! Who is not the common people who have come over? Who has not come from young children? Are those people worthy of being called people? Those are animals! Guan Qingyue was really angry when he said this, and the three of them were a little frightened, for fear that he would take out a book from somewhere and settle it with them.

"That being the case, Boss Guan, what you did right, the more they want Yun Mengze and Lidu, the green forest and the rivers and lakes, and the imperial court to wrestle their wrists, the more we can't let them succeed. I just don't know who the two forces that restrain Wang Gang are?" Li Fengxing nodded in agreement, he knew that Guan Qingyue had the element of killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, but as a monkey who was intimidated, he felt that Guan Qingyue did the right thing, and Wang Gang's behavior was indeed not something that people could do.

Sleek people are generally thoughtful, and he is no exception, he does not doubt the authenticity of Guan Qingyue's words, but only doubts the purpose of those two groups of people.

"The second one should be the Demon Dao, only they can benefit from the possible battle of Yunmengze, as for the first one, it seems that only Wang Gang knows who it is, but in order to kill him as quickly and steadily as possible, the people I sent didn't give him a chance to speak, so the clue was broken. Guan Qingyue pondered, why did the Demon Dao engage in the Green Forest and Yun Mengze, he hadn't figured it out yet.

"Devil's way...... Boss Guan, if the battle between the righteous and the demons breaks out, are we going to join the war?" Li Fengxing pondered for a moment and asked this question. After all, the boss of his own family doesn't like to cause trouble, and he doesn't like others to cause trouble, since the Demon Dao hit the idea on their heads, it is bound to not be forgotten because of a failure, and they will definitely have to make a move in the future, that is, to make a feud, and then things will not be laughed at at that time.

"It's hard to say, the world is impermanent, who knows what the pattern was at that time? But for now, I just want to keep Yun Mengze and live up to their trust. Guan Qingyue shook his head, he couldn't say it to death.

"Boss Guan, then do you really want to personally set up a banquet to entertain that Li Jinming? Otherwise, leave it to the three of us, you will go out in person, it's too face-saving, right?" Reimer turned the topic to the upcoming banquet.

"Go, I'm not at ease. Guan Qingyue's faceless words made the three of them very embarrassed, but they were powerless to refute, they really couldn't put it down, after all, Li Jinming was their junior, and it was really awkward to bow his head to him.

"Shall we ...... What can you do?" Li Fengxing scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"Reimer and An Beili should guard their own area, just be honest and vigilant, as for the vigorous wind, well, I remember that there is a young man with good ability under your command, what is it called?" Guan Qingyue's expression became serious, and he began to arrange matters about the forces.

"You can't be talking about Li Qing, right? That girl's ability is okay, haha. Li Fengxing continued to scratch his head, could it be ......

"Yes, it's her, let her take over Xiongling and the area originally managed by Wang Gang, and her status is temporarily mentioned to the position of one of the four Taibao, if she can't do it in the future, she will be replaced, and she will continue to do it if she can. Guan Qingyue's words confirmed Li Fengxing's speculation, and also made Lei Mo and An Bei Li sour, isn't this equivalent to doubling Li Fengxing's territory?

"This can't help it, Boss Guan, she's still very immature, how can she pick up this burden, she can't do it, she can't help it. Li Fengxing repeatedly excused herself, Li Qing was not only his subordinate, but also an orphan girl entrusted by his friends, how could she be put in such a dangerous situation?

"Young man, let's go through it, we are also old, that is, I still have some days to live, so I don't have to worry too much about finding an heir. Guan Qingyue didn't plan to change his mind, but the next words made Li Fengxing worry a lot less: "I will send a few people to assist her, wait for her to stabilize, is this okay?"

"This ...... I'll thank Boss Guan for her. Li Fengxing knows that there is no way to change things, he can only continue, and this fate is actually very good, one of the four Taibao, on an equal footing with himself, and being taken care of by Guan Qingyue, can be regarded as living up to the trust of his old friend.

"Well, you guys go. "Guan Qingyue waved his hand and signaled the three of you to get out, everything you want to talk about has already been discussed, and I don't plan to clean you up.

"Yes, Boss Guan. The three of them breathed a sigh of relief and exited the study.

Guan Qingyue picked up a piece of letter paper on the desk, read a poem on it again, and sighed softly.

Drunk and laughing for ten years, flying flowers and shadows, Yunmeng does not know where to return for thousands of miles.
