There was no wind or waves, and this summer's open sea was unusually hot.

Somewhere the spiritual vein of the sea penetrates the water surface, stands between the sky and the sea, its peak is three hundred zhang, the third order of the spiritual land is the best, the shape is like a pen holder, and the momentum is magnificent.

I think that this island was also occupied by a certain powerful sect back then, the fairy mountain was beautiful, the monks came and went, the ordinary order was orderly, and the people were prosperous, so it could be said that they lived a good life. Unfortunately, now the whole island is bare and there are no life, only some charred roots and many broken walls remain, and this place is a microcosm of the scourge of demons.

At the bottom of the peak, a Otogi Wind Shuttle docked quietly, and dozens of camel rays wilted and crowded under the shuttle, only greedy for a rare little shade here.

Inside and outside the peak, there are busy figures of red-robed monks everywhere, some are guarding the Quartet, some are making tall construction wrestlers, building square-shaped houses in order row by row, and some are surveying and visiting, preparing for the layout of the mountain protection array, and above the temporary phantom array at the top of the mountain, the banners such as 'Da Zhou', 'Xinzheng' and 'Chu Qin' flutter in the wind.

In the array, Qi Xiu was listless, closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, while pricking up his ears to listen to the argument between Gu Si and Chu Qingyu in front of him.

"The problem now is ...... further east," Gu Si pointed to the map of the open sea, and said anxiously: "The islands will be more scattered, and the voyage will be farther and farther, and our camel rays will have to land and rest after flying a certain distance, which is almost unusable." Moreover, the camel ray eats a lot of food, and the offshore islands basically do not produce the forage it eats, and the pressure on the supply will increase as we move further from the coastline. ”

"So people don't need camel rays in the open sea. Chu Qingyu retorted: "Your family should have been prepared for this problem a long time ago, and besides, the next shuttle will be modified soon and handed over to your family for use." ”

"One more shuttle won't solve the problem, we can't use shuttles to patrol, we can't use shuttles to form a formation......," Gu sighed was not satisfied, "There must be a beast boat that can replace the camel rays!" he said.

"The camel ray is one of the most heavily loaded aerial beasts in the world, and if you can get other species, you may not be suitable for the open sea. In the past, most of the popular birds here were sea birds and spirit birds, which were fast and suitable for long distances, but they were overwhelmed!" Chu Qingyu replied impatiently: "After the demon disaster, the number of spirit birds in the open sea has decreased sharply, and it is very difficult to get it! My family also used a lot of camel rays, and most of the others were [Purple Crowned Spirit Cranes] supported by Qiyun Chu's family, not to mention the extremely low load, the range was more limited than that of camel rays, and it was also very smart! I had to coax it every day, and if I didn't like it, I really dared not fly if I didn't want to, except for the fast speed, it was useless......

Chu Qingyu seemed to have been tossed enough by the [Purple Crowned Spirit Crane], "That Shi Wanqi from the Middle Route Army's Imperial Beast Gate promised to support us with some [Nine Feather Xuanying], and Cai Yuan will also support some, if there are still shortcomings, we can only ask for them again." ”

"Huh. Gu Si sneered, "Don't you know what the price of the spirit beasts that are suitable for operations in the open sea outside now, what about the righteous cause of subduing demons and eliminating demons? What about the support from all directions? I see, the ability of that vegetable garden is very problematic, and from the outbreak of the demon disaster to the start of the action, there has been too long between the time and nothing has been done! When all the families gathered in the open sea and were delayed for a long time, the first battle on Songfeng Island was able to end half a month later than the scheduled plan! He was half a month late, so we had to wait for half a month on Haimen Island, who was responsible for the cost of eating and chewing? Now that we are working hard in the front, and we can't even guarantee supplies in the rear, how can we fight this battle!?"

"You!"

Chu Qingyu was so angry that he pointed his finger and sighed and scolded: "I don't understand anything, nonsense!"

"And ......" Gu Si was not afraid of being scolded by him, "After the modification of the Yimu Wind Shuttle, it is not only a lot heavier, but the consumption of spirit stones has almost doubled, and my house will definitely not be able to afford it." He put his hand in front of Chu Qingyu's chin with a fixed posture.

"With such a large ship-shaped bottom, it has to be able to withstand storms and waves at sea, and the weight naturally cannot be reduced. As soon as he said this, Chu Qingyu wilted, "Now that I think it's calculated, it's not as cost-effective as buying a brand-new shuttle made in the open sea, alas! He gestured, "In this regard, we will give you this amount of subsidy for the first year." ”

"No! Gu sighed's gesture changed.

"How is it possible!" Chu Qingyu was anxious again, and pushed the other party's hand away, "This count." ”

Gu Si pressed his hand down again, "At least this number!"

“......”

The two quarreled violently, and at this time, a crisp child outside the formation said: "Master Qiqi, your quiet room is ready." ”

"It's coming!"

Qi Xiu suddenly came to his senses, left them and jumped up, flew out of the formation, found the newly built ashram and got in, threw a futon to the ground, and then sat cross-legged and forgot about the toilet, and then didn't ask about the world.

He was the shopkeeper with his hands, and the rest of the Chu Qin League were not so good, and they were busy one by one, until the spiritual light of the mountain protection array was lit up, and thousands of people entered the temporary residences of different levels one after another to rest.

'The magic smoke is wrapped in the mountain, making a cracking and hissing sound, the peak is twisted inch by inch, looking like a human face, the lower end is porous, and the demon shadow comes out of it, shuttling and wandering in front of the heart flag, afraid to ...... close'

Bao Er was on duty because of the summons, but he was not idle, he guarded the summons spirit bird, holding a pen in one hand and a book in the other, just standing and writing hard.

I was so involved in writing that I didn't know when I was approached by Shano, who happened to be passing by.

"What to write!?"

Xano is a joker, and as soon as he scooped it up, he took the book out of his bag.

"I'll see. "Ignoring Bao Er, who was demonstrating with his eyes, he flipped to a page and read it, but it said, 'The number of casualties among the scattered cultivators and other monks who came with the alliance is unknown, about one hundred or twenty people......

'A total of thirty-five people in the alliance died, of which only seven or eight died in the former battle, two of the rest were drowned in the sea to chase fish, one died in military law for escaping from the battle, one died in the sea of flying swords out of control, and two died in private dueling......

"Twelve or three people who stole the goods of the uninhabited mountain gates on the islands and died in the military courts, most of them were under the command of Sha Nuo, the master of the Baisha Gang, and his many treacherous people were not liked by the families......

Seeing this, Shano threw the book in Bao Er's face, and scolded viciously: "Write your mother X, you know a fart!" After scolding, he rushed away with his hands in a rage.

The place where he was smashed suddenly turned black, and he covered the wound with his hand, and argued in a voice so low that only he could hear it: "Isn't it......?

Shano had already gone far.

He had no choice but to pick up the book, first put it into his arms page by page, and then took out the inner and outer pills to heal.

"Alas!"

Zhan Jianfeng saw this scene from afar, sighed, and persuaded: "Didn't Yao Keqing refuse last time? Why are you still writing this, you need to know more words to cause trouble......

"I like to write, I write it for myself, and I don't delay things, who is in the way?" Bao Er said aggrievedly: "Uncle Yao looks down on me, and you look down on me too?"

"That's not what I said. ”

Seeing this, Zhan Jianfeng pulled Bao Er aside, and the two sat down side by side, "Black and white, there is a big mystery here, for example......" He took out a stack of battle reports of the Liberation War from his storage bag, "The first battle of Songping Island, Haidong City, Qinxi Zhao Department invited Ying to be the vanguard, and the first disadvantage was not good...... He read out the words one by one, and then said: "Think about it, the first battle of the Liberation War is so important, how many keys are there?" It is related to the face of the Huashen family in Haidong City, but it still took half a month to delay to get it done, how tragic will that war be? But in the battle report released by the Great Zhou Academy, there are only three words of 'initial disadvantage', and nothing else, just three words. ”

"Look at this side again......" He flipped to the article 'On the first day of Black Wind Valley's arrival in the open sea, he made a big fuss on Haimen Island', "When the Black Wind Valley first arrived on Haimen Island, it was just a debate and quarrel with some Confucian cultivators present, and several duels were also very restrained, and no one was killed at all. But in the war report, he wrote a special article for it, claiming to be fair, but in fact, between the lines, it gave people the impression that this sect was too bastard and too ignorant of the rules. I don't know who has read this battle report, who would be interested in the battle of 'Chu Unfavorable'? Who wouldn't hate Black Wind Valley?"

"You understand, right? This trade-off between black and white is simply the way to kill, which is subtle, can you grasp it now?" Zhan Jianfeng said seriously, and he asked Bao Er to take out what he wrote in his arms, "Look at what you wrote......

Xiong Futing held on to the banner and stood in the array. Although he is a disciple of the Xiong clan in Beilie Mountain, he has been taught by the ancestor of the head of the family, and he is in the Thousand Bears Garden, and his heart is thinking about the mountain......

"Still in the Thousand Bears Garden, my heart is thinking about the mountains......" Zhan Jianfeng repeated again, and he laughed, "If you let the Xiong family see this text, what will they think? What will they think of Xiong Futing? This is said to be causing trouble to people at best, and at worst, if the Xiong family has different intentions, I am afraid that it will also bring death to Futing! You......" He sighed helplessly.

Bao Er hurriedly said, "I won't show it to others." ”

"And how did Xano see it just now?"

Zhan Jianfeng asked, and Bao Er was speechless.

Stuff the book back into the second-hand bag, "What should be written and what should not be written, what can be used in the spring and autumn with a pen, what can be written bluntly, these must be clarified first! If you still can't let go of the obsession of recording these, then I suggest that you must find someone to study hard!"

"Yes. "Bao Er was finally taught sincerely.

The two were exchanging hearts, and a pure white bird flew from afar on the sea, "Bao Er, Bao Er!" It spat out its mouth, and called Bao Er's name from afar, and knew it like an old friend for many years, "My ancestor asked Chu Qingyu if the matter was finished, let him go back quickly, and prepare to join forces with Black Wind Valley!"
