Tianshou City, the City Lord's Mansion, underground secret room.

"Daddy, did you change your plan by secretly recalling the child in a hurry?" Cao Wuluo leaned back on a tiger skin chair, quite dissatisfied, "You know, the child is still in the Shifang Ancient Town with a strict layout, back and forth, delaying time." ”

"Wu Luo, my father has repeatedly warned you that if you want to achieve great things, you must be calm and calm, and be good at waiting. "A middle-aged man stood with his hands in his hands, eagle eyes and nose, white face and beard, wearing a gray robe, looking lifeless, it was Cao Tianshou, the city lord of Tianshou City.

"Remember, child. ”

Cao Wuluo looks arrogant and domineering on the surface, and there is no one in his eyes, but in fact, he has completely inherited Cao Tianshou's ruthlessness and cunning in his bones, and of course he has inherited a dime.

With his identity as a young city lord, there are tens of millions of golden tickets in the storage space built in his belt at any time, as well as a large number of valuable equipment, pills, and gems, but he is reluctant to take out a mere two million gold beads for Li Tianyi to go to the bounty building to do business.

In fact, not to mention two million gold beads, even two hundred gold beads, he will not produce a single son. In Shifang Ancient Town for so many days, Li Tianyi took care of all expenses, even if it was to buy a silk handkerchief.

"The spies we arranged on the outskirts of the Valley found that people in the valley have been coming and going out of the valley very frequently recently. Cao Tianshou frowned slightly, "Especially a few days ago, Sun Taiyang, the deputy hall master of the Martial Arts Hall, personally led nearly twenty elite disciples to the Shifang Ancient Town, there must have been some scheme." Although you met Wu Zhong through Li Tianyi, this does not rule out that Wu Zhong actually wanted to find an opportunity to get close to you from the beginning. ”

"Daddy, do you mean that Li Tianyi deliberately arranged for the child to get to know Wu Zhong?"

"Quite possibly. ”

"What is his purpose in doing this?"

"You said that Li Tianyi doesn't have an immortal fate, but he dreams of having an immortal identity, which may be the reason why he arranged for you to get to know Wu Zhong. Cao Tianshou said, "Li Chenggang has always had dealings with his father, but his father can't give Li Tianyi an immortal identity, but Wu Zhong can." Li Tianyi didn't know the relationship between Tianshou City and Miaoyin Valley, so he hoped that you could say a few kind words in front of Wu Zhong, get him into Miaoyin Valley, and become a nominal disciple of the outer court. ”

"If that's the case, Wu's purpose is not pure. ”

"How is he behaving in front of you?"

"The same grandson. ”

"Obviously unconscionable. Cao Tianshou said, "Although you are a young city lord, your status is noble. But Wu Zhong is also the apprentice of Wang Zizhong, the master of the martial arts hall in Miaoyin Valley, and his nephew, and his status is not low. It's not above you, but it's absolutely fine to be on an equal footing. ”

"That makes sense, but what was his real intention in approaching the child?"

Cao Tianshou shook his head and said:

"I can't see it, he must know that the relationship between Tianshou City and Miaoyin Valley is tense, if it weren't for the occasional confrontation between the Great King and the Immortal Dao Alliance, the war would have been on the verge of breaking out. In this case, he still lowers his value to associate with you, of course, he is tired. Whatever the reason, when you go back, take precautions. In any case, he will definitely not dare to touch you until the two sides have not torn their faces. In addition, Daddy has already sent three Grand Commanders and three hundred elite guards to infiltrate the Ancient Town of Shifang in disguise, and General Xue will also go there afterwards to ensure that there is no problem with your safety. ”

"General Xue!" Cao Wuluo exclaimed, "Daddy, are you going to sacrifice the master of the military family?"

Cao Tianshou smiled:

"There's also a high priest. ”

"Which one?"

"Xiang Changsheng. ”

"Daddy, with all due respect, are you making a bit of a fuss about this?"

"Do you think that Changyou, the demon beast on Changyou Mountain, is so easy to catch?" Cao Tianshou said, "Although Changyou looks like an ape, he has four ears, so his hearing is extraordinary, and he is no less than a monk in the Liuhe Realm. In addition, Chang You's quick movements, flashing and moving on the cliffs, are not easy to kill, let alone capture alive. ”

"Having said that, the child still feels that he still doesn't need General Xue of the Five Elements Realm, and it is enough to have Mr. Xiang Da of the Ten Heavens of the Liuhe Realm. Cao Wuluo said, "Daddy, are you sure you want to use Changyou to cause the Yaoguang Mountain disaster?" The child heard Mr. Xiang say that within a hundred miles of Yaoguang Mountain, there are seven villages, and there are four or five thousand people living there. ”

Cao Tianshou said:

"This was originally Mr. Xiang Da's idea. ”

"I don't care about the lives of four or five thousand people?"

"Wu Strategy, become a big thing without being informal. Cao Tianshou said, "A group of ordinary people, as cheap as ants, how can their father shake the thousand-year-old foundation of Tianshou City because of them? Miaoyin Valley has focused on expanding the territory of the southern sect in recent years, and its purpose is to swallow Yaoguang Mountain and several surrounding mountains. You also know that that it is one of the main sources of funds for our Tianshou City, and if it is taken away by Miaoyin Valley, it is tantamount to cutting off one of Tianshou City's legs, and the consequences are unimaginable. ”

Cao Wuluo said:

"The child is not merciful, and I don't care about the lives of those people. What worries me is that overnight, thousands of people will die, and it will definitely attract the attention of the Southern Suzaku King. Besides, such a big matter will definitely not be suppressed, and sooner or later it will be known by the Great King, are you sure that the Great King will ignore it? In addition, the Immortal Dao Alliance will definitely intervene in the detailed investigation, do we have a corresponding strategy?"

"Well, Wu Luo, it's very gratifying for you to think like this. Cao Tianshou said, "We are secretly operating, and we only need to kill Changyou by the Chishui River under Yaoguang Mountain, and we can cause a monstrous flood." And Yaoguang Mountain is surrounded by hundreds of miles, the terrain is like a basin, and after the flood is poured in, it is a vast ocean, and the deepest depth can reach thirty or forty zhang. In this way, we will not only prevent the expansion of Myokin Valley to the south, but also ensure that all the mountains in the area are firmly in our hands. ”

Cao Wuluo was silent for a moment, shook his head and said:

"The child doesn't think that Miaoyin Valley will give up expanding because of a piece of water, since their purpose is Yaoguang Mountain, then what's the problem with accepting a hundred miles of water?"

Cao Tianshou smiled:

"It's good that you're so thoughtful. However, this is not an ordinary flood, but a flood caused by Changyou, and the meaning is completely different. ”

"What's the difference?"

"Of course, ordinary flooding can't stop Myonne Valley. Cao Tianshou said, "But the flood caused by Changyou is different, don't forget, Changyou is an ominous demon beast, where Changyou appears, it is a sign of flooding." Changyou belongs to the beast clan demons, and after the flood, the Southern Vermilion Bird King has to seriously ponder, is this the return of the beast clan demons raging? Of course, he can't be sure, he must report to the Great King, and the Great King will naturally not ignore it, and will definitely let the Immortal Dao Alliance come to investigate in detail. As my father is the city lord of Tianshou City, Yao Guangshan is under the jurisdiction of Tianshou City, so Shen Zhongyang was of course the first to find me and asked me to help investigate. So I can justifiably send at least 100,000 Vermilion Bird Tiger Horsemen to sit in Yaoguang Mountain to prevent the beast clan from causing trouble. In this case, Miaoyin Valley also has to assist in the investigation, so it has to suspend the expansion of the sect, in Shen Zhongyang's words, it is to focus on the overall situation. ”

"Daddy is wise. Cao Wu said, "In this way, drowning thousands of ordinary people is also the work of the beast clan's demons. ”

"Exactly. ”

"There is another question, why did Changyou run from Changyou Mountain to Yaoguang Mountain, which is three hundred miles away, to cause flooding?"

"Let the Immortal Dao Alliance find out about this, Shen Zhongyang is a ruthless character in the Five Elements Realm and Ten Heavens. Cao Tianshou smiled, "Wu Luo, do you now understand why your father sent General Xue?"

"The child is served. ”

"That's why the Father is calling you back, and this kind of secret can only be taught in person. Cao Tianshou said, "Three days later, you and General Xue will go to Shifang Ancient Town together." During the period, all affairs are decided by General Xue and Mr. Xiang Da, and you can learn along. ”

"The child obeyed. ”

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

Sun Taiyang couldn't sit still in the end, and planned to go to the wild boar forest. As soon as I arrived at the south gate of the town, I suddenly remembered something, and I turned back to Lizheng Mansion.

Standing outside the door of Lizheng Mansion was still Ma Guancha, who was thinking about why Xu Dazhuang had not come back when he had gone to Zuixianlou to book dinner, an old man with black hair and black beard and a black face stood in front of him.

Ma Guancha is a person who has no fart skills, but his eyesight is very good. Therefore, after only a glance, he knew that the comer was not good, and hurriedly asked with a smile:

"This master, do you need a small service for something?"

"The old man is Sun Taiyang, the deputy hall master of the Miaoyin Valley Lecture Martial Arts Hall......"

"You, you, please come in, Lord Rissho is in the hall. As soon as he heard that the old man was from Miaoyin Valley, and he was still some kind of deputy hall master, Ma Guancha's legs were weak, and he quickly bowed down and retreated to the side.

Sun Taiyang strode into the Lizheng Mansion and came to the hall, only to see a middle-aged man in an official uniform sitting behind the vermilion case, with a somewhat dignified face, holding a bundle of bamboo slips in his hand, looking attentively.

"May I ask if the hall is Lord Li Chenggang?" Sun Taiyang asked with a fist in his voice.

It stands to reason that with Sun Taiyang's status, this kind of nine-grade official family is not in his eyes at all. However, the subtle thing is that this is an ancient town of Shifang, an important offensive and defensive town built by the Great King and the Immortal Dao League, so the background of the person who can sit in this position is not outrageous, but it is definitely not small.

In fact, the mayors of the seventy-two towns on the Obsidian Continent all have a bit of a background.

As for the city lord of the Thirty-Six Heavenly City, his background should not be underestimated.

Li Chenggang closed the bamboo slip and asked with some surprise:

"Who's in the hall?"

"Miaoyin Valley speaks of Sun Taiyang, the deputy hall master of the martial arts, if you have something, please ask Lord Lizheng. ”

"It turned out to be Deputy Hall Master Sun, please take a seat. Li Chenggang hurriedly got up to greet him, and he had always admired or was in awe of monks, especially monks like Sun Taiyang, who had a certain realm at first glance.

This point is completely inherited by Li Tianyi.

It's like the three walls in his bedroom, which are full of all kinds of low-grade immortal equipment that he has purchased with a lot of money, but unfortunately he can only look at it with his eyes and can't pick up any of it.

Sun Taiyang didn't have time to sit idle, so he stood in place and asked:

"Can Gongzi Ling be in the house?"

Li Chenggang's heart sank, thinking that his son hadn't caused trouble outside, and now people came to the door to ask for the guilt, right?

"The dog is stubborn, dare to ask, but offend ......"

"No, recently, Linggongzi and one of the old man's subordinates have been very close. Early this morning, there was a person who claimed to be a servant of Lizheng Mansion and came to the Dafugui Inn to deliver a letter. It is said that Linggongzi asked the old man's subordinates to go to the wild boar forest ten miles outside the south gate of the town to inspect the goods, but he has not returned so far. The old man was a little worried, so he asked Ling Gongzi if he had returned home?"

"The dog hasn't returned all night, and I'm about to send someone to look around. ”

Sun Taiyang frowned and asked:

"Is there a servant named Xu Dazhuang in the house?"

Xu Dazhuang ...... Yes, I came to Lizheng Mansion early this morning to find a job......"

"Oh no!" Sun Taiyang arrived at the door with a rise and fall, turned around and shouted: "Immediately mobilize all the servants and go to the wild boar forest." If something happens to the disciples of Miaoyin Valley, no one will be able to protect you. ”

Li Chenggang dared to slack off, and immediately ran to the door, and hurriedly shouted to Ma Guancha, who was huddled beside the stone lion:

"Hurry, hurry, gather everyone, and hurry to the wild boar forest. ”

Li Chenggang was so anxious that he was dying, no wonder his right eyelid had been jumping vigorously since yesterday.

It was not Sun Taiyang's threat that he was afraid of, but his only son Li Tianyi.

Of course, he can't afford to provoke Miaoyin Valley, but his mastermind behind the scenes is Cao Tianshou, so even if Sun Taiyang's subordinates have an accident in Shifang Ancient Town, Miaoyin Valley has to weigh it if he wants to move him.

What he didn't know was that the identity of this Miaoyin Valley disciple Sun Taiyang was talking about was a bit unusual.
