Ye Qin came to the luxurious mansion and looked at the big man at the door, claiming to be the 1st friend of the chief scoop of the North Twenty Gang, and wanted to see their chief scoop handle.

The twenty nursing masters at the station gate are all first-class masters, with profound internal skills and vicious eyes, but they can't look directly at Ye Qin's indifferent and clear gaze, and they can't see Ye Qin's details at all. The leader Dahan remembered the magic power of the chief scoop handle, and the chief scoop handle made friends with naturally all fairy-like characters, and suddenly his heart sank, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly entered the mansion to report.

Ye Qin waited outside for a short time, and then saw a woman dressed as a pretty bride and the leader of the big man walking out of the courtyard of the deep mansion.

"Brother Ye, it's you!" The woman saw Ye Qin, showed a look of surprise, and hurriedly greeted her.

"Little Sister Zhang, I haven't seen you for a few years, but it's good!" Ye Qin was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted, and bowed to the woman with a light smile. The woman dressed as the bride is Zhang Qiao. The well-behaved and clever girl she met in Lingwu City in the past is now a bride, and she is obviously married.

"My little sister is doing very well, and Brother Ye doesn't seem to have changed at all over the years. Zhang Qiao's surprised gaze stayed on Ye Qin's lightly smiling face, and he stopped talking for a while, but it turned into a faint sigh, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

Ye Qin could naturally feel the complexity in her gaze, and sighed slightly in her heart.

The huge difference in the longevity of the foundation building monk and the qi cultivation monk doomed them to have no fate. He couldn't spend the rest of his life thinking about his partner. So he wisely chose silence and avoidance to avoid too much emotion.

Zhang Qiao took Ye Qin into the mansion, and talked about what had happened in the past few years on the way.

The year before last, under the control of her brother Zhang Zhe, she married a secular Confucian student in Qingzhou. To Ye Qin's surprise, this person was the registered disciple of Liao Yifan, the prince of Liao, Shen Jun, the champion of the Southern Liang Kingdom ten years ago. This admission is very knowledgeable, has excellent intelligence, and was born in a family of Qingzhou eunuchs. Shen Jun has great respect for immortal cultivators, and the husband and wife respect each other like guests, and they live happily.

When an immortal cultivator marries a mortal, it is somewhat condescending to marry. The reason for marriage is mainly for marriage, so that the Northern Twenty Gang and Liao Wangfu reconciled. Zhang Zhe controlled the territory in Qingzhou City, defeated several scattered cultivation forces in Qingzhou, and formed the Qingzhou Gang, which governed the entire Qingzhou Jianghu Gang. The Qingzhou Gang can be regarded as a dominant party in the rivers and lakes of the Southern Liang Kingdom.

Ye Qin bowed slightly.

He has met Shen Jun once, and his character is not bad. Although he is a Confucian in the mortal world, it is not a blessing to be able to avoid all kinds of battles in the immortal cultivation world as much as possible. Zhang Zhe married his sister to a mortal, but he didn't want to get involved in the disputes in the immortal cultivation world again.

Tong Qiao led Ye Qin to the annex of the mansion.

Zhang Zhe, Fan Jiasheng, Xia Laohei and others were sitting on the stone chairs in the courtyard discussing something, with a sad look on their faces.

When they saw Tong Qiao and Ye Qin coming in from outside the courtyard, they were immediately overjoyed and hurriedly hugged their fists to greet them.

"Ah, it's Brother Ye here!" "Brother Ye, after a few years, I want to kill a few of our brothers!"

"Haha, I said why the magpie on the tree keeps calling today, it turns out that Brother Ye is coming! Brother Ye has been to a place all these years, and he hasn't come to see us brothers for several years?"

"Hehe, I went to the Northern Qi Kingdom, and I just returned to Xianyuan City a few days ago. I came to Nanliang to do some business, and I happened to come here to visit a few brothers. Why did you just have a sad face, but what trouble did you run into?"

Ye Qin soon noticed that several of them were excited, and there was still a bit of sadness in their eyes, and he couldn't help asking. In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, some troubles are disasters for Qi cultivators, but they are nothing for foundation building cultivators. As long as it's not too much trouble, he can't help, and he won't shirk.

Zhang said bitterly: "Brother Ye, it's not anything else, it's just that I'm worried about the war in the three major immortal cultivation realms. As early as a few years ago, there was a war in the three major immortal cultivation worlds, and monks from all walks of life fought for territory.

Now that the situation is becoming more and more tense, there are more and more monks fleeing in the area of Spirit Mist City, and low-level monks like us can only avoid the edge for the time being. Brother Fan and Brother Xia and I are discussing how to deal with it, but after thinking about it, we can't make up our minds for a long time. Brother Ye came just in time to help us get an idea.

"Oh, what are you going to do now?"

Ye Qin asked with a smile. He should have thought that the war in the three major immortal cultivation realms would be widespread, and Qingzhou, a corner of the Southern Liang Kingdom, would definitely be unavoidable. They need to prepare well in advance so that they don't rush and can't cope with it.

Tong Zhe said: "Now we have discussed two ideas. Brother Fan thought that he should give up Qingzhou's self-scooping territory and go directly to Lingwu City for refuge. Brother Xia thinks that we should stay in Nanliang Kingdom, continue to operate the territory that we have fought hard, and make a decision after seeing the changes in the situation. But I can't decide which one idea. Ye Qinzun: "Then what do you mean?"

Zhang temporarily said: "I mean these two aspects can be carried out at the same time, for the time being, stay in the Southern Liang Kingdom first, and go to Lingwu City to prepare a place to live." Once the situation deteriorates, if the monks of the Heavenly Dome Plain and Wanyue Lake come to the Southern Liang Kingdom, they will immediately go to Lingwu City for refuge. Anyway, it's only a few days away from Lingwu City, and you can reach Lingwu City in a short time. I'm already going to let my sister go to Lingwu City during this time, and I'll prepare a place to live there first. "It's good to do this, why can't you make up your mind?"

Ye Qin was puzzled, even he could only do this.

Tong Zhe smiled bitterly, "But the real problem lies with the Lu family." Ye Qin was puzzled: "What's wrong with the Lu family?"

Zhang temporarily continued to explain bitterly, "The Lu family is the only Great Cultivator Immortal family in the entire Southern Liang Country, and it is also the master of the Southern Liang Kingdom.

As long as it is a state and county level power in Southern Liang, they must pay tribute to the Lu family. The year before last, I replaced Liao Wangfu and threatened the overlord of Qingzhou. The Nanliang Lu family was not embarrassed, and acquiesced to me replacing the Liao family. However, from that year on, I had to replace the Liao Wangfu and pay tribute to the Lu family at the end of each year to ask for the protection of the Lu family.

Herein lies the problem. If I give up Qingzhou now and go to Lingwu City, I can be exempted from this huge tribute at the end of the year, and we will have a lot more goods left in our hands. If you stay in the Southern Liang Kingdom, this tribute will definitely be inevitable at the end of the year. If the monks of the Heavenly Dome Plain were killed just after the tribute, it would be a big loss. Ye Qin listened carefully, thought for a while, and asked, "How much do you want to pay to the Lu family every year?"

Zhang Zhedao: "The tribute to the Lu family at the end of each year accounts for at least two-thirds of the income of the Qingzhou Gang. Whether to leave or stay is directly related to whether this year's wealth should be paid tribute to the Lu family. ”

Ye Qin opened his mouth in surprise, "So many, this proportion is a little too high." ”

Zhang Zhe was very helpless, "The Southern Liang Kingdom is the world of the Lu family, and I dare not disobey the rules set by the Lu family." If we don't pay tribute to the Lu family, we won't be able to gain a foothold in Nanliang at all. ”

He paused, "I don't know what Brother Ye thinks of these two ideas, which one is better-)"

Fan Jiasheng and Xia Laohei both looked at Ye Qin, expecting him to come up with an idea.

Ye Qin pondered for a while.

The battle between the three major immortal cultivation realms was very strange. He didn't know the attitude of the high-level of the Spirit Mist Immortal Cultivation Realm, but one thing was obvious, that is, the sects of the Heavenly Dome Origin and Wanyue Lake were attacking frantically, and the Immortal Cultivation Sect of the Spirit Mist Realm had not organized any large-scale counterattack so far, but instead stationed troops in the Spirit Mist City.

It seems that the main battlefield should be in Spirit Mist City.

If the three major immortal cultivation realms were to fight a big battle, the main battlefield would probably be Spirit Mist City.

The Southern Liang Kingdom is on the edge of Lingwu City, and this vicinity will be the most intense place to fight, and it will definitely be greatly damaged here.

"It is estimated that as long as it takes one to two years, it will be killed in the area of the Southern Liang Kingdom. It is better to evacuate the Southern Liang Kingdom before the end of this year, go to Lingwu City, and save a large amount of money to pay tribute to the Lu family. After Ye Qin thought about it clearly, he said.

After careful consideration, Zhang Zhe finally made up his mind:

"Since Brother Ye also advocates evacuation, then let's do it. Over the years, I have accumulated a little money, and after purchasing a residence in Lingwu City, I will transfer it as soon as possible. By the way, Brother Ye came to Nanliang Kingdom this time, but what do you want to do?"

Ye Qin said with a smile, "Yes, I have an important business to do in Southern Liang Country, and I plan to visit Lujiabao." It's just that I know very little about the Lu family, and I'm trying to ask a few of you about the situation of the Lu family. The more detailed, the better. ”

"Lujiabao?!"

Zhang Zhe, Fan Jiasheng, Xia Laohei and several others glanced at each other and were very surprised. They are monks from Nanliang's own country, and they often deal with the Lu family, so they naturally know a lot about the Lu family. Lujiabao is not a good place to visit, except for the annual tribute, they rarely go to Lujiabao.

They explained to Ye Qin the situation in Lujiabao.

A thousand years ago, the Lu family was originally a small Xiuxian family in the Southern Liang Kingdom, located in a remote state in the Southern Liang Kingdom, Yiyi Ningzhou. Later, the Lu family somehow gradually developed and defeated the original overlord Liao family. Especially in today's Lu family, there is a highly talented immortal cultivator Lu Ziyou, who entered the first sect of the Lingwu Immortal Cultivation Realm, and later became the ancestor of the Ancient Artifact Sect, ranking first in strength.

The Southern Liang Kingdom then became the territory of the Lu family's monopoly. There are dozens of large states in the Southern Liang country, and the Lu family only operates in a few of them that are rich in spiritual objects. The other states and counties were too barren, and the Lu family didn't want to spend energy on managing them. It is controlled by a weak soil cultivation force like Zhang Zhe, and he only needs to pay tribute to the Lu family every year.

Ningzhou Lujiabao is the ancestral land of the Lu family, and it is also the most deep-rooted state and county of the Lu family, and no other immortal cultivation family or scattered cultivation force dares to intervene there. After all, such a family with Jindan monks, and it has a great relationship with the Ancient Artifact Gate, no one dares to offend easily.

"Brother Fan has been to Lujiabao twice with the tribute goods, so you are more familiar with the situation there, so it is better for Brother Fan to accompany you to visit Lujiabao. Zhang temporarily proposed.

"No, it's easier for me to go alone. ”

Ye Qin shook his head and refused.

His trip was to seize the spirit fruit, which was very dangerous, if there was an accident in Lujiabao and there was a fight with the monks of the Lu family, I am afraid that they would be implicated, but it would be inappropriate. He went alone, and he had fewer scruples.
