Cheng Ling guessed right, what Feng Ping said was the He family's clan land.

It turned out that since the He family was destroyed, the Chen family and the city lord's mansion have been busy grabbing land, and besides, the He family's treasury has been robbed, and there is only an empty mansion, which has no value, so it is abandoned.

Now that Cheng Ling and others are here, Feng Ping just pushed the boat down the river and sold the He family's mansion. Originally, with the scale of the He family's land, even 50 million lower grade spirit stones were not enough, but who let the He family be destroyed now, and the City Lord's Mansion nominally managed all the land deeds in the Fallen Leaf City.

However, he didn't dare to open his mouth, if the asking price was too high, it was inevitable that the Chen family would come to get a piece of the pie, and he was afraid that Cheng Ling would run away, five million spirit stones, and the Chen family would not be in his eyes, and he also kept an eye on it, only stating that it was rent, and this caravan would not stay in Fallen Leaf City forever.

When they leave, they can take it back again, this is completely a business, and at the same time help Cheng Ling, they can make a profit, why not.

Cheng Ling was also moved in his heart, he had been to the He family's mansion, which occupied a very large area, and it was just right to arrange the formation, which was a good place to stay.

The two had similar intentions, and soon signed the relevant agreement, and in this way, the stronghold of the island caravan in Fallen Leaf City was finalized.

Feng Ping originally wanted to stay with Cheng Ling for a light meal and entertain him well, but he also got a lot of benefits from others. Cheng Ling reasoned that the young lady was still waiting at the city gate, and she didn't dare to stay for a long time, so she left first.

Back at the city gate, Cheng Ling beckoned everyone to go to the He family's land. A group of people pulled wagons and pushed goods until noon.

Cheng Ling said to the porters, "Are there any of you who are willing to stay here and work?"

Several porters looked at each other, but only one was willing to stay. They were all invited by Cheng Ling in a mountain village along the road, they were all just mortals, how could they dare to stay in such a big city.

Cheng Ling gave them some gold and sent them away. When the men had gone, he said to the porter who had left, "Why do you want to stay?"

"Back to the adult, the villain is alone, there is nowhere to go, seeing the majesty of the majesty, like a cultivator, so I dare to stay and learn the Tao!"

Cheng Ling was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that there was such a character among these people, and his ambition was very high, so he asked, "What's your name?"

"The villain's name is Zhang Hu, and he is eighteen years old this year!"

The corners of Cheng Ling's mouth twitched, why is it Zhang Hu, shouldn't he be called Zhao Hu? Well, it seems that he has been poisoned by Bao Qingtian, and even a guy wants to make up the four guards.

He nodded and said, "Yes, since you are willing to stay, you can work hard, see your performance, if I am satisfied, I will naturally teach you the art of cultivation." ”

Zhang Hu was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Yes! Thank you for your cultivation!"

"Don't call me an adult, you can call Zhan Guard and Young Master, I don't have so many rules here, don't kneel at every turn, remember that there is gold under the man's knees." ”

"Yes, young master, the villain understands!"

"Okay, now there are a few things for you to do, and you have your own reward!"

"Yes, please command, young master!"

"First, you go and recruit some men, preferably familiar with the locals in this city; second, find a few maids to come and serve the young lady, these maids don't want locals; third, go and recruit a few monks, the cultivation is not limited, do you understand?"

Zhang Hu rolled his eyes, nodded and said, "Yes, the little one understands." Please show me how many people you want to find?"

Cheng Ling threw him a storage ring and said meaningfully: "What do you say? Within three days, you must complete it! If these three things are done well, your future path will be different!"

After speaking, without waiting for Zhang Hu to answer, he entered the inner mansion and walked towards Xiyan's wing.

The He family's mansion is very large, the street is a shop, and the back is the outer house, which is specially designed to entertain distinguished guests. After the outer house and inside, there is a tall entrance wall that distinguishes the outer house from the inner house.

After turning the entrance, there is a large garden with a lake dug out of the center of the flower surface. A winding corridor on the lake divides the inner house into the left and right sides, with the male owner on the left side and the female family on the right.

Cheng Ling and Xiyan settled in, naturally replacing the position of the male and female hosts. At this time, he was walking towards Xiyan's wing, and there were some things that he still had to discuss with her!

After coming to the wing, I saw Xi Yan sitting in front of the bed, stroking the edge of the bed and sighing deeply. Her body was tightly wrapped in a cloak, and she still didn't adapt to the clothes designed by Cheng Ling.

He said, "What, you are familiar with this wing?"

Xiyan sighed: "This is my aunt's room, she loved me very much back then, but unfortunately, she left like this." ”

Cheng Ling said: "I just restrained her back then, I didn't kill her, and I don't know who killed her!"

Xiyan said: "It's Chen Haoran, I heard him say with my own ears, the children of the He family, don't leave a single one! His heart is so ruthless!"

"That's it, since the incident has happened, let it pass, Chen Haoran will have to pay the price after all!"

"Yes, I think so too, Brother Ling, I saw that you easily persuaded the city lord, what are your plans now?"

Cheng Ling said: "Just like him, it's okay to fool around ten, and those people in my hometown are not easy to deal with." I want to enter the Chen Mansion, you are very familiar with it, do you know where the treasury is?"

"You're going to rob their treasury?"

"Not bad!"

"Brother Ling, the treasury of the Chen Mansion is not so easy to enter, not only is it protected by the formation, but it is also close to Chen Qingyang's residence, you might as well think of other ways!"

"It's okay, you just have to tell me the exact location, and if I can't do anything, I can get out. ”

Xi Yan sighed, and knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he could only tell him the location of the treasury.

Cheng Ling asked again, "What kind of spiritual root are you, and how are your cultivation techniques?"

"I am the water system spiritual root, and cultivation is the Chen family's exercise, called the Water Spirit Technique, which is the only middle-grade exercise in the Chen family!"

Cheng Ling nodded, took out two cheats from the storage ring, and said: "This is a water system technique that I got in the sea of waves, it has reached the top level, you transform your cultivation, and there is also a water system matching sword technique, which should be much better than what you are learning now." ”

Xiyan took it, glanced at it, and saw that one was "Canghai Jue" and the other was swordsmanship, the name was "Dragon Roar Nine Days", she said happily: "Thank you Brother Ling!"

Cheng Ling said with a smile: "There is also a water-based mid-grade sword weapon here, which is also given to you." In the future, we will face too many dangers, you can improve your combat power as much as possible, and you can also have more means of self-protection!"

"Yes, I'll practice hard. ”

Cheng Ling gave her the cheats and sword weapons that he naturally scavenged from Canglang Island, and he didn't plan to give them to her before. But in the past few months, the two have gotten along and admired Xiyan's personality very much, plus one person is lonely in the end, so they decided to improve her combat power.

He also said: "Today, I will arrange multiple formations in He Mansion to ensure your safety. In a few days, a few maids will come to serve, and you can also cultivate with peace of mind. ”

"Brother Ling, I don't need a maid!"

Cheng Ling smiled and said, "You are the eldest lady of our caravan, how can you not have a maid to serve you." Remember, you are everyone's best girl, fortunately, this is your life for more than ten years, and you don't need to play it, you should be familiar with it!"

Xiyan's heart was sweet, and she said shyly: "You know how to make fun of me!"

Cheng Ling laughed and said, "There are some things that still need you to come forward to deal with them, it's always good to make more preparations." Okay, you rest first, I'll go out and set up the formation!"

Xiyan said: "Brother Ling, I will work hard, and you don't have to work too hard!"

Cheng Ling nodded and left.

After arriving at the mansion, he began to deduce the nodes. If the entire He Mansion is covered under the formation, although it can be done, but the coverage is wide, and the defensive effect is too low, in the end, it is decided to only cover the scope of the Inner Mansion, and then set up a few prohibitions on the pavement.

He started to do it, and two hours later, he set up a four-layer formation in the inner mansion, a phantom formation, a trapped formation, a killing formation, and a defensive formation. This made the inner mansion like an iron bucket, almost the same as the formation on the island, and no one must be able to crack it.

However, he didn't activate all the formations, but only launched the defensive formations, and the other three formations could only be activated as long as they had the corresponding tokens. After the arrangement was completed, he returned to Xiyan's wing, told her about the arrangement of the formation, and gave her a touch token in case she needed it.

At this point, it was getting dark. Cheng Ling changed into a night suit and disappeared into the night sky.

He was familiar with the way, and soon entered the Chen family, and carefully followed the direction pointed out by Xi Yan.

Along the way, I met several waves of patrolling disciples, and they all flashed over. He also found that the number of people patrolling the Chen family is much smaller now, and it is obvious that they have fought with the He family and the city lord's mansion in the past few months, and the casualties are very large.

The breathing technique worked, and soon came to the periphery of the treasury. He stopped to observe, and sure enough, he found traces of the formation, and the grade of this formation was still very high, reaching the top of the fourth grade.

However, in Cheng Ling's eyes, it is still not enough. He carefully began to lay down the pillars at the edge of the formation, destroying the nodes in the formation.

But as soon as he finished hitting a few pillars, an old voice came: "He Fang, the rat generation, is delusional to crack the treasury formation and show up for me!"

Cheng Ling only felt a sharp palm force coming from behind him, and hurriedly dodged to dodge, with a "sonorous" sound, the sword in his hand was unsheathed, and a sword swept towards his palm.

"Huh! the kid reacts quickly!" the voice screamed, but it didn't stop in his hand, and the second palm followed.

Cheng Ling only felt that it was difficult to breathe, and the palm force dispersed the air around him, and under the terrible palm pressure, the swordsmanship stagnated a little. He knew that this person was the Yuan Infant Monk of the Chen family, Chen Qingyang.

I didn't expect the other party to be so vigilant and see the fluctuations of the breaking formation so quickly. His right hand tightened the sword weapon in his hand, and the Qingfeng Sword Technique unleashed, struggling to resist the opponent's attack.

Although the Shattered Cloud Sword can delay the opponent's attack, this swordsmanship has some relationship with the Yunyin Sword Technique, and it was also used in the Chen family back then, and he didn't dare to use it easily, for fear that Chen Qingyang would find out his identity and only use the Qingfeng Sword Technique to fight the enemy.

Chen Qingyang's cultivation is a big realm higher than him, although Qingfeng swordsmanship is exquisite, the power is far from the same, after the two of them fought more than a dozen moves, Cheng Ling was in danger, and it was very hard to resist.

Chen Qingyang said indifferently: "Yes, with your Jindan consummate cultivation, it is commendable to be able to hold on for so long, today, just stay!"
