Chapter Fifty-Three: Time is Tight and Tasks Are Heavy
After Tianci returned to the Chen family, he went straight to his home, and met many children in the clan along the way, and they came up to express their admiration for Tianci, the second uncle, the third uncle, the fourth uncle and the fifth aunt were more enthusiastic, holding Tianci's hand and not letting go, this one called to go to his house for dinner, that said that he wanted to go to the house to see Tianci, Tianci felt like an overseas Chinese who had returned to the village, surrounded by a kind of joyful liveliness, this guy is going to be developed is different, the heart said that it is not to cultivate a Tao with a mysterious person, not to.

After entering his yard, the first thing that greeted him was not his father and mother, nor the maid Rou'er, but the rhubarb, the one in his house.
When she arrived in the living room, Rou'er heard that someone was coming from the house, and hurriedly greeted her, and when she saw that the young master was back, she was excited, and her tears were in her eyes. This little girl, I saw that their young master was good, God was really depressed, it seems that it is also a kind of trouble for people to be too handsome.
Tianci and Erma sat down to drink tea, and the father and mother came, and Erma hurriedly stood in front of Tianci respectfully.
"Stinky boy, why don't you follow the master and come to the house?" the old man blamed God-given in his mouth, but he had already smiled on his face.
"You old thing, your son hasn't come back for more than half a year, you know that let him practice, you see that your son has lost weight, but ...... Thin is thin, but it looks more solid than before, and it seems that the practice is very solid. "Mom took the arm of God and was reluctant to let go.
"Who are these two?" Dad looked at Ma Dashuai and Ma Xiaoshuai and asked God.
Without waiting for Tianci to speak, the second horse knelt on the ground with a plop: "Little Ma Dashuai, Ma Xiaoshuai has seen the master!" It's really a bow!
Chen Ziang was not surprised, mainly because this is the third time he has enjoyed this kind of treatment, the first time it was the few sent by God before he went to South Vietnam, and it was Shi Gui and Liu Yu a few days ago, so this time the old man had no sense of surprise when he bowed to Erma, and helped Erma up and let them sit down.
Not long ago, the apprentices who came to the Chen family twice before came, worshipping the master and the master, it was really noisy, Ma Dashuai got up and took a group of brothers to the outside, and let the brothers take them to other houses.
Tianci told his father about the cultivation of the Ethereal Peak, and also said that he met Zhao Xu and others on the way and all kinds of things after going to South Vietnam, and focused on asking whether anyone in the Chen family was stranded in South Vietnam, and after asking, he knew that he was too worried, and the Chen family went to a group of caravans before the blockade of trade routes in South Vietnam, but they also came back safely before the blockade.
......
Tianci thought that he still had to go to the ghost to find cheats, and it was somewhat inconvenient to take a group of apprentices, and the most important thing was that he had to practice well, and he didn't have time to take them, so he found a pen and paper, searched in his mind, and copied a few exercises that looked good and handed them to his father, and Erma and other disciples also handed them over to his father, so that his father could take them to practice, which could be regarded as strengthening the power of his own family.
Dad took a look at these exercises, and immediately burst into joy, although these exercises are not particularly profound, but they are all exercises that can be practiced from the quenching realm to the advanced martial arts realm, not to mention those disciples, Chen Ziang felt that one of the "Liuhe Fist Methods" was very difficult to practice by himself. asked where Tianci came from these exercises, Tianci only said that he learned it from Master Duyi, and didn't say much, mainly because he was afraid that his father's heart couldn't stand it, and if his old man couldn't help but blow it out, he might bring trouble to himself.
Tianci originally wanted to keep Moskov at home this time, but this guy was having a lot of fun with Rhubarb, as soon as he heard that he was going to leave it at home, holding Tianci's trouser legs to death or alive, Tianci had to continue to take it with him, and he always felt that this guy was a freak, it seemed that he could upgrade, maybe it would be better to take it with him, maybe he would have to rely on this guy to find a treasure or something in the future, and if he ate it, he might become extremely strong.
After staying at home for less than half a day, Tianci hurriedly went out, planning to go to the city guard barracks to find Liu Wei, he had to go quickly, otherwise it would be enough for the family to surround him with a bunch of people of all ages like last time.
The military camp of the city protector is at the foot of the mountain in the south of Qingyun City, although Tianci has not been to it before, but the place is known, walking along the street, soon saw a majestic gatehouse, two large bronze doors open on both sides, the door is three zhang wide, and there are four guards standing on each side, wearing the light armor of the unified Dongwu Empire. On both sides are walls that stretch for miles, as thick as the walls of Qingyun City, and they are big enough to run horses. Tianci took a look at it and sighed that the armament of the Dongwu Empire was really not built, and the military camp of a small border town was so arrogant!
Walking to the city gate, Tianci saw that the eight people on the left and right stood still like statues, each with a straight waist, and said that this army was very neat, and just about to go inside, the two closest people held iron guns in their hands, and only said: "The military camp is heavy, and idle people are not allowed to enter!" The face is grim.
Tianci smiled slightly, took out Liu Wei's waist card and flashed it in front of the two of them, followed by a trace of respect in everyone's eyes, the first two put away the iron gun, nodded to Tianci, did not speak, stood up again, Tianci also nodded, and entered the gate.
As soon as he entered the gate, someone immediately came out to ask, and after Tianci flashed his waist card and explained his intention, this person politely called out a soldier to take Tianci to find Liu Wei. This soldier actually has the strength of quenching the body, and those who can enter the city guard army are generally well-qualified, even if a corrupt city lord like Xue Jianyang is too bad, he will not dare to let him enter the city guard.
In addition to the neatly planted trees inside the barracks are rows of barracks, thinking that the sergeants are training at this time, so they rarely meet people along the way, Tianci asked the soldier, and the soldier told Tianci that these people who met were all veterans who were difficult to break through in martial arts cultivation, and basically came to an end, and these people were willing to stay to do some daily sundries and no longer participate in training, no wonder Tianci saw that these people were older.
Not long after Tianci passed through the barracks, came to a compound in front of the mountain root, there were two guards standing in front of the door, the soldier explained to the two and then went back, one of Liu Wei's two guards took Tianci into the door, Tianci entered the door and found that in addition to tidying up here, there was no difference from the compound of ordinary people, and only after asking did he know that it was Liu Wei's official residence.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Tianci asked Tianci to wait, and went to inform Mr. Liu Qian, not wanting Liu Wei to say loudly: "I didn't expect Chen Gongzi to come so soon." As he spoke, Liu Wei came out from a study on the side and let Tianci into the living room.
After the two sat down, of course, Tianci didn't say that he came here because he was disgusted with the troubles at home, and he had already asked his father at home, knowing that Xue Jianyang had been transferred to Montenegro County, and the new city lord was named Zhang Qian, so he asked Liu Wei first: "Have you already visited Zhang Qian and Zhang City Lord?"
Of course, Liu Wei knew that the children of a family like Tianci were very well-informed, and it was not strange to know who the city lord's surname was, and said with a smile: "I've seen it, the master of Zhang Cheng is as his name, quite modest, much stronger than Xue Jianyang." ”
Tianci was very excited when he heard it, and it was not good to ask much about the attitude of the Qingyun City military towards South Vietnam, etc., but Liu Wei really didn't take Tianci as an outsider at all, and said it in detail.
It turned out that when Xue Jianyang left Qingyun City, he released the flying eagles used to transmit messages in the army, like the county guard of Montenegro County who reported the news of the blockade of trade routes in South Vietnam, and Zhang Qian was already on his way to Qingyun City at this time.
"Xue Jianyang, the old fox, not only patted his ass and left, but also did a beautiful job on the surface, and in a few days, the Black Mountain County will send a special envoy to investigate the blockade of trade routes in South Vietnam, if the matter is big, and South Vietnam insists on refusing to trade, then it will definitely be reported to the top of the empire, and even the emperor will know about it. Liu Wei made no secret of his dissatisfaction with Xue Jianyang.
Tianci said with a smile: "If the envoy of Montenegro County comes, I think it is necessary to ask City Lord Zhang and President Qian first, right?"
"Yes, of course this is the case, but although I have gone to South Vietnam to investigate secretly, I can't see what South Vietnam intends for the time being, and it is naturally possible to negotiate with South Vietnam Long Son City in a public way, but it is best to find out the details of South Vietnam before this. Liu Wei's trip to South Vietnam did not have any big gains except for helping Xue Jianyang shirk responsibility, and he looked a little depressed.
"But if you don't negotiate with Longshan City head-on, if the envoy comes, if you ask about you and Zhang City Lord, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain, right?" Tianci said with a smile.
"That's true, but I waited for the first two days in South Vietnam to not gain nothing, or found out some situations, I thought about it carefully, Chen Gongzi's judgment is very reasonable, South Vietnam is very likely to steal mines behind my back of the Dongbu Empire, and it is necessary to negotiate head-on with Longshan City at the same time, immediately search in the border area between South Vietnam and Qingyun City. It seems that Liu Wei does not completely affirm God's judgment, but this possibility has already influenced Liu Wei's thinking.
"Yes, immediately launch a carpet search, search in all directions without dead ends!" "Tianci only hopes that his intuition is right now, in this case, the matter will be big, only if the matter is big enough, can it alarm the royal family, and the Chen family can have a chance to enter the sight of the royal family again.
"Chen Gongzi said it very well, that's it, to search all the areas at the junction of Qingyun City and South Vietnam, but the problem is that the guards of Qingyun City are less than 3,000 people, but the envoy of Montenegro County will arrive the day after tomorrow at the latest, and it is too difficult to search all the border areas, and it is possible to send everyone out to find mines. ”
God's heart said that too, if you did this a few days ago, it is estimated that there will be a result at this time, but now in the face of the upcoming envoy, it seems that there is really not enough time to give an explanation to the top beautifully, it stands to reason that it should not be difficult to find something as big as a mine, but in fact, it is really difficult to find it in two days and so on.
Although Qingyun City is a small border city of the Dongwu Empire, this Tianyuan Continent is unusually vast, the border between the Dongwu Empire and the Nanyue Kingdom stretches for tens of thousands of miles, and the border between Qingyun City and Nanyue is estimated to be thousands of kilometers, and the mountains and dense forests and ravines are criss-crossed, and the monsters are infested, especially in the depths of the jungle where there are many inaccessible people, so if you spread everyone to find it, it is likely that most of the people will never be able to come out again because of the encounter with powerful demon beasts or monster groups, but if you divide into small teams, the efficiency will undoubtedly be low, and the main problem is that it is impossible for the whole army to go out to find minesAlthough this possibility is very small, once this kind of thing happens, Zhang Qian and Liu Wei's heads will not be their own.
Tianci was also at a loss, and wanted to give Liu Qian a trick, but he really didn't know what a good way to do, and after a while, a guard came in and said that Zhang Cheng asked Liu Wei to go over to discuss matters, and Tianci had to temporarily say goodbye to Liu Wei and return to the Chen family.
