Chapter 017: Huangpu Fengyun (2)
In the northern part of the Purple Gold Empire, in the midst of a treacherous mountain and rock cliff, there is a valley with a very strange terrain. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The entire valley is surrounded by almost straight cliffs that are more than 100 meters high, and there is only a gap in the eastern position, forming a passage about 50 meters wide. Because the surrounding rocks are all straight up and down, and there are no other plants except moss on the rocky cliffs at the top of the mountain, which are 100 meters high, it is a natural haven that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Sure enough, in the interior of the valley, there are many buildings in the valley, and judging from the building materials, these buildings are old and new, and it seems that someone built here many years ago, and gradually expanded to the present place.
In the gap on the east side of the valley, the passage 50 meters wide was blocked by a huge wall about 112 zhang high and 56 zhang wide, forming a perfect protection with the mountain rocks on both sides.
This wall also has a gate, compared to the huge wall, the gate appears to be extremely small, about two zhang wide, about four or five zhang high, with a huge wood wrapped in a metal shell tightly blocked, it seems that it does not often open the door to welcome guests.
Above the city gate, there are three vigorous and powerful characters 'Imperial Valley'!
On top of the city walls, there are many masked men in black coats patrolling vigilantly, as if the place is so tightly protected that no one can enter it unnoticed.
Within this 'Valley of the Kings', there seem to be three distinct areas. The central area is a large complex of buildings, and the three-step, one-post, five-step guard tells everyone that this is the most heavily protected area in the entire 'Valley of the Kings', and almost everyone walking and shuttling through the building is strictly monitored and guarded. The complex is enclosed by a high wall, and there is a well-guarded gate at the entrance, and on the door is written three large characters 'Shifting Flower Palace'!
The strip of buildings on the left side of the 'Valley of the Kings' on the left is relatively simple, with a few tower-like high-rises and patches of plazas and a large number of adjacent undeveloped woods, in addition to a few buildings that look like houses. In each square, a large number of young people are neatly lined up, following the people standing in front of them to teach their heads to practice martial arts.
Judging from their appearance and figure, these martial arts practitioners are male and female, but they are not very old, and the largest phalanx looks to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, and most of them are eight or nine years old.
In the middle of the woods, there were also figures shaking, as if they were conducting some kind of training in a different way, like a training base.
The complex was not enclosed by high walls, and most of the area was completely open, except for the tower-like buildings that were surrounded by strict guards. In the center of the largest square, there is a naturally formed boulder with three large characters carved into it: 'Ethereal Palace'
On the right side of the 'Valley of the Kings', the building is a different scene. In addition to the large room, which often resembles a classroom, there is smoke rising from time to time, and the air smells of various medicines. The most peculiar thing is that the only building next to the hill in the valley clearly has a cave leading to the interior of the hill, and the guard at the gate seems to be no lower than the one in the center.
The main complex was also fenced, especially at the entrance to the hill, and a small wall was built to defend it, which seemed to hide a lot of secrets. At the entrance of the complex, there is a stone torii with three characters carved on the archway: 'Shenshui Palace'.
Here, it was Gu Yi who carefully selected and established a secret base. The headquarters of the three palaces, presided over by Invite Yue, Mingxin and Mingkong, is also located here.
In order to choose a secret place, Gu Yi made a long consideration. The reason why the 'Valley of the Kings' was chosen is mainly because the terrain of the place where it is located is very peculiar, as long as it is slightly arranged, it can become a labyrinth-like place; secondly, although the terrain of the Valley of the Kings is treacherous, the water and soil are quite abundant, so there is no need to worry about the supply of water and food; thirdly, the paths here are intricate, and once you need to evacuate in extreme situations, you can quickly disperse.
Of course, compared to Gu Yi's grand plan, this is just one of Gu Yi's many secret bases, and in terms of area and number of people alone, the 'Valley of the Kings' is even the smallest of Gu Yi's many secret bases, but this is indeed the most core and safest place for Gu Yi!
At this time, in the 'Shenshui Palace' on the right, a charming woman wearing an apricot yellow robe was standing inside the main hall with a serious face, looking indifferently at the twenty-one masked men and women wearing green clothes and carrying long swords on their backs.
This is a woman who looks like a peach and plum, her appearance is like a fairy descending from heaven, her skin is snow-white and pink, her face is as smooth as jade, a pair of jade hands are extremely white and tender, like a sheep fat jade carving, and her waist-length long hair is windless and automatic, looking like a dust fairy.
At this time, the woman was looking at the note in her hand, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned to look extremely charming and moving, but there seemed to be a shocking sense of evil between her eyebrows.
"You're the one transferred by the Lord of the Palace?" the woman put the note away and looked at the twenty-one masked men and women below.
"Yes!" a man who didn't look very old stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "The Lord of the Third Palace has asked us to listen to the Fairy!"
"Hmm. The woman nodded, "You go down and rest first, and then we can act together after I have arranged everything!"
"Yes!" the man saluted, and then turned away with his men.
"Giggle......" After everyone left, the woman laughed a few times and said to herself, "It's like you can go out and play again." ”
This woman is none other than Mingkong's left and right hands, the 'Spicy Hand Fairy' Li Mochou who is above 10,000 people under one person in the 'Shenshui Palace'!
As one of the people personally selected by Gu Yi back then, her experience back then was even more difficult than that of Invite Yue. Born into a rich family, her family was ruined due to a battle in the rivers and lakes, and at the age of three, she was sold to the Qinglou by the winner to cultivate, preparing to be used as a cash cow in the future. If she hadn't met Gu Yi on the way to escape and rescued her, I'm afraid that her life would only be a tragedy.
Because of this experience, she has a more ruthless temperament than ordinary people under her peach blossom-like appearance, especially to the enemy, and she is even more ruthless!
Here is some basic information about Gu Yi's subordinates.
Among these subordinates of Gu Yi, in addition to different powers, there are also different divisions in identity. This division is not a mark, nor a title, but rather a distinction based on dress and name.
From low to high, they are: masking, unmasking, dressing, and naming.
When these trained subordinates can be delegated, they become the most basic personnel. This type of personnel uniformly wears standard Tsing Yi jackets, masks, and only calls code names instead of names. This stage is called: face masking. It means that the person can delegate the task, and it is the lowest level of personnel.
After many missions, it is considered to be an elite class, and after reaching the assessment, it is allowed to unmask the operation, that is, it has reached the level of a team leader, but it still needs to be called its code name when it acts, and it cannot perform tasks independently.
Next, it's time to give clothes. At this stage, Gu Yi's subordinates are the real elite, wearing their favorite clothes, using their own names, and performing independent tasks. Only those who have reached this stage can truly get in touch with Gu Yi's core secrets and become the shadow of the expatriate.
As for the final nomenclature, it is not a very clear rank. Because Gu Yi traveled through various martial arts worlds in his previous life and saw many people and many things, he liked to name those people's names when he saw his subordinates who were similar in personality and ability. For example, Invite Yue, Lian Nishang, Li Mochou, etc., or name some favorite names according to your preferences, such as Mingkong and Mingxin's two daughters.
Over time, Gu Yi's subordinates will find that as long as Gu Yi personally names his subordinates, they are the strongest elites in high positions, so they gradually form a point of view: only those named by Gu Yi himself are the most trusted people!
Everyone under Gu Yi is looking forward to Gu Yi naming himself. This is not only because most of these people are orphans and are very young when they are adopted, slaves, beggars or broken families, and their previous names are either cheap, or nameless, or young, and they have no official names at all, but also because everyone knows that as long as Gu Yi takes a fancy to it, he will order the second palace master Mingkong to take out the formulated martial arts for the other party to practice and become a real master!
Of course, not everyone needs Gu Yi to name it. Sometimes Gu Yi will deliberately do some training because he hears a familiar name and sees that the other party's qualifications are good, and these people also exist!
It's just that since Gu Yi cultivated young orphans most of the time, there are very few people who have their own names and still use their own names like those cultivated by the first generation, so there is a conclusion that the named person has the highest status under Gu Yi.
As one of the few naming people, Li Mochou's status is very high in the entire 'Valley of the Kings', not to mention the situation under the 'Shenshui Palace'. If it weren't for the fact that there was no position of 'deputy palace master' among the three palaces, Li Mochou might be the deputy palace master of the 'Shenshui Palace'!
Compared with the 'Red Lian Fairy' that Gu Yi saw in his previous life, Li Mochou in this world has higher martial arts, more ruthless thoughts, and more spicy methods, and she can be said to be unafraid of any means for the enemy, and will do whatever it takes to achieve her goals! As for Li Mochou's stupidity, Li Mochou in this world only has an infatuation with Gu Yi instead of a non-existent 'Lu Zhanyuan'.
By the way, those girls under Gu Yi basically have a kind of love for Gu Yi, after all, he is the benefactor who saved them from hell! Of course, this kind of obsession and love are very moderate, and they do not let them go to extremes.
"The Situ family of Tianfeng City, the Shen family of Liuxu Town, and those subordinates of the Changxing Gang......" The corners of Li Mochou's mouth curled slightly, like a witch's smile, which made people feel unclear.
