Two months later, the Northern Wilderness Snow Plain, the secular border.

When He Yi's footsteps stepped into this familiar area again, a feeling of incomparable intimacy rose in his heart.

In the end, it is the taste of home, which makes people feel more at ease.

From the Qi Cultivation Sect to the Barbarian Realm, a few months have passed since he came back and forth in the Northern Wilderness Snow Plain, and I don't know if there has been any change in Huyang City during this time.

And this world......

"General Qi, Brother Hu, why don't you two go to Huyang with me first and take a break, how about it?" After bidding farewell to the wild guards, He Yi said with the Qi Zhen and the tiger Wugui.

They were entrusted by the second ancestor to follow He Yi to the world, on the one hand, to familiarize themselves with the secular environment in advance, and on the other hand, to understand the situation of those who cultivate the truth.

In this regard, He Yi naturally welcomed, if they can temporarily join Huyang, it will be equivalent to getting two generals for nothing, why not?

"Brother He Yi, the appearance of the two of us is very different from the world, so I still don't follow you, as for investigating the world, we have our own way. General Hedgehog said.

Even if the two of them turn into humans, they will also reveal the characteristics of the demon clan, and if they are not carefully hidden, they will be easily discovered.

"I have a hedgehog tail armor here, if you encounter any trouble, you can crush this thing, and Hu Wugui and I will rush to support as soon as possible. ”

General Hedgehog handed a piece of green scale to He Yi, said take care, and left on his own.

He Yi silently looked at their backs for a long time, and whispered: Thank you.

Crossing the border, He Yi and Li Liangyu headed all the way to Pingyuan County, the nearest county to the south, preparing to rent a carriage to hurry, so that they could rush back to Huyang as soon as possible.

But he seems to have forgotten one thing.

It didn't take long to walk, on the line of vision in front of it, there was a vast team, which was full of flags, the wind was fierce, most of the books on the flag had the word "Pei", and a small number of them were written with the word "Jiang" and "Jia".

"Lord, it may be Brother Pei Dong and our Huyang Army ahead!" Li Liangyu stared at the banner for a moment, and said excitedly.

The thrill of months of running outside, surviving countless dangers, and suddenly seeing your loved ones is indescribable.

"How did I forget this!" He Yi patted his head and said suddenly.

A few months ago, because of the savage and delicate matters, he deliberately let all the Huyang troops go out of the city and set up a continuous front on the periphery of the Northern Wilderness to strengthen their momentum.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to let Liao Qianzhong run to Dangyang City, and borrowed thousands of soldiers and horses, as well as countless grains and grasses, in case of emergency.

But now the wilderness has become its "ally", and the hinterland in the rear can be safe, so naturally there is no need to do this labor-and-food-consuming thing.

Just thinking about it, I saw a group of men and horses separated from the army, led by a small general, carrying the "Jia" character vanguard flag, and galloping towards He Yi's side.

"Xiao Shao! It's us, it's us! We're back!" Li Liangyu kept waving his hand forward and shouted loudly.

The howling cold wind soon carried the sound.

"Lord, Liangyu!"

When the young general on the horse heard this, he seemed very excited, and when he flew to the horse, he made a pop, knelt in front of He Yi, and his knees fell deep into the snow.

His eyes were red and his voice was hoarse————

"You're finally back!"

This person is none other than Jia Shao.

"Major General!"

"Lord!"

“......”

Pei Dong and Jiang Sheng and the others also came quickly, and when they saw He Yi, their eyes were red, and they looked very excited.

He Yi helped them up one by one, and said with a smile: "Why, if you don't see it for a hundred years, you can't stand it? If you are allowed to stay in a city all the year round, won't you have to get lovesickness?"

Listening to what He Yi said was interesting, everyone suddenly burst into laughter, dispelling some of the sadness that had been absent for a long time.

A few people temporarily returned to the camp and talked about it.

Soon after, Pei Dong suggested that He Yi go back first, and the watch became solemn.

"Could it be that something happened to Huyang?" In this regard, He Yi, who was about to talk to everyone about wine, was very puzzled.

"Actually, it's not a big deal......," after a pause, Pei Dong continued: "It's just that those old officials in Huyang in the past seem to have begun to brew something behind their backs. ”

............

Huyang City, too shou mansion.

Gongliang Ju is lying on a side case, burying his head in the official documents.

After this period of stable development, the problem of displaced people has been completely solved, and the people's livelihood is stable.

In terms of finance, with Xiandang, a hen that lays golden eggs, by his side, he naturally doesn't have to continue to worry.

As for agriculture and water conservancy, a large area of new farmland outside the city is being prepared for reclamation, and the construction of water canals has already been put on the way.

These are the good aspects.

As for the hidden dangers, they are still hidden in the shadows.

"Yunyi, are you looking for me?"

Soon after, Liao Qianzhong entered the Taishou Mansion.

He seemed to have just finished some urgent business, his forehead was covered with sweat, and when he entered the house, he grabbed a pot of cold tea and poured it into his mouth until there was no breath in his lungs, and then he threw the teapot down and gasped for breath.

"What are you doing, why are you tired like this......" Gongliangju felt a little funny, thinking to himself that this old Liao is usually an angry and invisible person, why is he so out of shape today.

Liao Qianzhong sat opposite Gongliangju and said: "Don't mention it, last time the lord of the Bohai Gao family sent me a letter, saying that there are a large number of spiritual properties buried in the ground near the ruins of Lijia Village, and I sent people to search for more than two months, almost hollowing out that area, and only then did these parties make some progress———— guess how many you found?"

"Oh, is it more than the stock in your immortal dang?" said Gongliangju with a smile.

"Not really. ”

Liao Qianzhong shook his head, although there are not many things in the immortals, but they are all top-grade goods, but they are not some low-grade spiritual products, he stretched out three fingers: "At present, a full three thousand boxes of spiritual properties have been found in that place, and less than half of the ruins have been cleaned up, and after the search is completed, it is estimated that there will be at least eight thousand boxes of spiritual properties, which is almost equal to the entire family of the five Zhao families!

This can't help but make Liao Qianzhong excited.

He had worked hard to manage the immortal dang for half a year, and he could only earn more than 500 boxes of spiritual property, which could only employ three or five ordinary monks in the middle of the realm at most.

At this rate, if you want to go to other county towns to develop Xiandang's power, it will take two years to say the least.

But now there are 8,000 boxes of spiritual property out of thin air, which greatly shortens Liao Qianzhong's plan.

That is to say, as long as he wants, he can raise a large number of Quartet cultivators at any time, and he can sneak into other counties at any time to establish a second or even a third branch!

"That's very good, if the immortals can grow quickly, we can also reduce a lot of burdens in the future. ”

Xiandang is the most potential and the most secret trump card in He Yi's hands. To be able to grow rapidly, Gongliangju is naturally very happy.

But his experience is different from Liao Qianzhong's, and for the monk's problem, he is more worried, so he had to remind Liao Qianzhong: "The monk's life span is extremely long, and for mortals like you and me who have a lifespan of less than a hundred years, most of them have no loyalty at all, let alone the word righteousness." Therefore, although the development is good, we must be cautious when recruiting candidates!"

"The monk values profit over righteousness, and I naturally understand this. However, the scale of Xiandang is not so big for the time being, and everything is still under control. Liao Qianzhong changed his words and said, "By the way, you called me over this time, what's the matter?"

Gongliangju sighed lightly and said, "It's still the same thing that asked you before." That Sun Dai ...... The old officials of Huyang led by him have been coming and going frequently during this time, and I heard that they are sending invitations everywhere today, inviting those old officials to gather in his mansion, and I don't know what wishful thinking is being played behind the scenes. ”

"Hmph, do they still dare to rebel?" As soon as those old officials were mentioned, the anger in the Liao Qian Center did not come anywhere.

Recently, the treasury of the Taishou Mansion had just had some surplus money, and those old officials immediately came to ask for the money owed by the former Taishou Liu Yi.

But that was owed by the former Taishou Liu Yi, what does it have to do with the current Taishou Mansion?

Not only that, but in the name of promoting talents, they also wanted to install cronies in Huyang City on a large scale, and after being rejected several times, they began to be dissatisfied, deliberately slacked off their official duties to cause trouble, and put pressure on the Taishou Mansion on the grounds of lack of manpower......

It's so hateful!

"When the lord is here, they naturally don't dare to make mistakes. But now that the lord has not returned for several months, it is difficult to say. Gongliang Ju shook his head and said.

He Yi went to practice the Qi Sect to participate in the treasure competition, at this time it was still a secret that could not be passed on, and he just said that he would travel and inspect the people's livelihood, but this was just a pretext after all.

After not seeing people for such a long time, those old officials of Huyang will inevitably think of other places.

Although Huyang now has tens of thousands of troops, in order to guard the northern wilderness frontier and prevent the invasion of barbarians, they are basically dispatched, and thousands of men and horses borrowed from Dangyang City are also dispatched. Pei Dong and Jia Shao personally led the army, and even asked Jiang Sheng to bring dozens of immortal monks over.

Now that there are only more than 3,000 defenders left in Huyang City, and there is no general to guard it, Gongliangju is worried that if there is a rebellion, it may cause an uprising.

"Yun Yi rest assured, I have already arranged eyeliner next to Sun Dai and the others, once I catch the handle of their trouble......" Liao Qianzhong said as he made a fierce movement to wipe his neck, "Immediately cut the hemp with a knife, and I'd rather kill the wrong one than let it go!

Liao Qianzhong is well aware of the importance of newspapers, and in the early years, he made a living by selling Huyang newspapers, and after mastering the power of Xiandang, the way and speed of obtaining newspapers were also faster.

Everywhere in the city now, there is basically his eyeliner, and no wind or grass can hide his eyes.

"Don't be impulsive!" Gong Liangju hurriedly stopped, and said, "What you said, why don't I want to? Although those people are hateful, they have some talents, if they are all killed, who will govern this city and six counties, with a population of more than 100,000?"

He stretched his waist, sighed helplessly, and continued: "I have already held three positions, and I will temporarily act as the Taishou. If there are more, I'm afraid I'll be exhausted to death! I'm still understaffed! I finally understand my lord's troubles now......

Lord, where the hell are you? Gongliangju couldn't help but think.
