protect our patriarch

Chapter 468 Long Yan's Merit!Surveillance return

……

Jiang Zhencang felt envious.

How do you say that?Oh yes, the start is to take off.

In that way, maybe Holy Land will be more than twice as powerful as it is now, and he might be in the middle stage of Lingxu Realm now, and if he is lucky, he might have already suppressed the Yin Shazong!
Unfortunately, everything is impossible!

In fact, it was precisely because Jiang Zhencang had a weak start in his family and felt tired because he had to work hard on his own everywhere, so he expected his apprentice Yingxuan to have a higher starting point.

On the spectator seat.

For a while, all the bigwigs had their own thoughts.

In the proving ground, the trial progress of the candidates is also constantly advancing.

When Wang Lici and Wang Yingxuan grew up like a snowball, the other candidates also found their own way to enter the development stage.

For example, Lu Wei showed a very high talent for planting. After several failures, she finally cultivated cold-resistant plant seeds, as well as some seeds for defense and fighting, and has already advanced outwards.

And the future Empress Luoqiu will go out alone, looking for bandit leaders to challenge one-on-one, and then indoctrinate them with ideas.

After going back and forth, she actually subdued several bandit organizations by virtue of her "dominant aura" that she was very good at, and made them fall under her empress's command, and the team quickly spread and grew.

No way, she acted too righteously as an emperor, more like the reincarnation of an emperor than Emperor Longchang.

When those bandit leaders took refuge in her, they all felt that in the future they must be servants of the dragon, walking the dignified road of becoming a marquis and worshiping a prince, and their hearts were screaming hotly.

Even if the bag is not complete, it has its own unique set.Excellent herbal medicine and alchemy techniques allowed him to quickly develop different medicines such as hemostatic medicine and dragon blood powder to stimulate potential, and created a [Dragon Blood Army] in a short period of time!
As for Wang Liyao, Gongyang Ce and the others, they followed an upright and comprehensive route, planting, developing, building, exploring, and fighting. They are not the fastest in every aspect, but the most stable. With such an all-round development, the probability of overturning in the future very low.

The slight difference is that Wang Liyao is more stable than Gongyangce, has more grasp of details, and has a better sense of the overall situation.

Every candidate for the Holy Son and Saint Daughter has gradually resolved their first wave of crises. Although there are some differences in front of them, there is still a long way to go, and it is still unclear who will have the last laugh.

……

And at the same time.

Far West.

The snow peak stands tall, and the evil spirit continues, as if it has not changed since ancient times.

Yin evil sect.

Not far from the temple, there is a slightly shorter but equally steep mountain named "Snow Spear Peak".

The top of Xuemao Peak is covered with snow all the year round, and it is cold and windy.Near the top of the mountain, there is also a large cave of evil spirits, filled with evil spirit all year round, mixed into a strong cold air.

With the evil cave as the core, a large-scale house was built around it. The house was carefully built of Yinling wood, with carved beams and painted buildings, full of grandeur.

For ordinary cultivators, living in this kind of place is undoubtedly a kind of torture, and after a short period of time, evil spirits will enter the body, causing extreme pain.

But for the disciples of the Yin Sha Sect, such a house is a treasured place of geomantic omen and a good place for cultivation.

This was originally the house that Qi Hongzhao lived in when he was the Holy Son in his early years. Later, when he became the suzerain, the courtyard was sealed up and no one else lived in it.

Now that Wang Longyan came, Qi Hongzhao unsealed the place and sent people to repair it meticulously, making it the living place of the future saintess.

By the way, he also changed the name of this house to "Minghuangju", which shows his expectations for Wang Longyan as an apprentice.

now.

In Minghuangjuli, a few disciples wearing Yinshazong uniforms were watering the spiritual plants in the garden.Looking at their focused expressions, extremely careful and prudent, it doesn't look like they are taking care of Lingzhi, but they seem to be serving their ancestors.

Beside them, a woman in a lavender dress was watching their movements.

She has a gentle and charming face, she looks weak and slender, but her tone is extremely severe.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, the seeds of these 'Blue and Purple Phoenix Bells' were brought over by Master Ruobing from his hometown. There are not many of them, and there is no room for any mistakes in each one. Give me [-] points Come on, one petal is missing, and I will let you pay for it with your life!"

After the words fell, the faces of those disciples turned pale, and their movements suddenly became more cautious.

Because the evil energy within the range of the Yin evil sect is too strong, it is more suitable for a small amount of spiritual plants with Yin evil attributes.In addition, there are not many varieties of spiritual plants that can be supported, so that the preciousness of spiritual plants here is much higher than that of the outside world.

Not to mention those delicate varieties that are purchased from other places from thousands of miles away and must live in the barrier of the formation, and will die for you at every turn. This kind of species that can be planted on the ground also needs careful care, and if there is a slight mistake , are likely to wither.

Here, even the water that irrigates Lingzhi is specially prepared Lingquan water, and there are special disciples who take turns to take care of Lingzhi, watching carefully twelve hours a day, for fear of any mistakes.

After finally serving Ling Zhi, the disciples breathed a sigh of relief and quietly wiped the sweat from their foreheads.

Under the sun, the water-soaked spiritual plants exude greenness, and strings of small blue-purple flowers bloom on the slender flower stems, which are extremely eye-catching.

The woman in the lavender dress nodded with satisfaction: "Good job. Uncle Ruobing should be happy to see it."

Hearing this, the hearts of those disciples were finally completely relieved.

One of the older disciples boldly asked: "Master Xinrui, did Miss Ruobing tell you how these flowers are reproduced? Seed reproduction or bulb reproduction? I think this blue and purple Phoenix bell flower seems to be bigger than ordinary flowers. The spiritual plants are more resistant to evil spirits, if they can reproduce more, maybe we can grow a sea of ​​flowers in the future, Miss Ruobing will be happy to see it."

"It's a good thing to have ideas." The woman glanced at him with a calm expression, "But remember, unless Master Ruobing gives orders, don't do unnecessary things. If you make a mistake, you can't afford to lose your life." Get up. Got it?"

The disciple hesitated for a moment, and quickly lowered his head to respond: "Yes. The disciple understands."

While speaking, the restriction of the inner courtyard was suddenly opened, and a figure pushed open the door and came out.

The figure was wearing a plain white long dress, with a cool demeanor, as if he had a fairy spirit, and a strong ice and evil spirit permeated his body, which could make people feel palpitations even from a long distance.

Who is this figure, not Wang Longyan?
"Uncle Ruobing." The eyes of the woman in the purple dress lit up, and she hurriedly went up to greet her and bowed in salute. She said respectfully, "You have worked hard in retreat. I specially prepared 'Bingqin Cream Cake' for you, which contains yin elixir. It can strengthen your cultivation, nourish your body, and soothe your spirit. I'll send someone to bring it to you."

"En." Wang Longyan nodded to her, and said lightly, "It's been hard for you to help me take care of the house these days."

This woman was sent to her by Qi Hongzhao, named "Wu Xinrui", it is said that she is a disciple of Yin Fengtu, the suzerain, who is responsible for helping her with some daily chores.

Wang Longyan was actually very uncomfortable at first, and she also refused because she really couldn't use a big Tianjiao as a maid, but this is the practice of the Yin Shazong, if she returns the goods, the elders will only think it is Wu Xinrui Serving carelessly and not being clever enough caused her dislike and punished Wu Xinrui instead.

This is the logic of the Yin Sha sect. The upper and lower levels are clearly divided, unlike the harmonious relationship between master and apprentice in Lingyun Holy Land.

Moreover, even without Wu Xinrui, other direct disciples would be sent over.Because of Wang Longyan's high status, she had to be served by others, and those female disciples who were not qualified enough were not even qualified to serve her.

Wang Longyan had no choice but to work hard to adapt.After getting along these days, I gradually became familiar with it.

"It's not hard, it's not hard." Wu Xinrui's smile is warm and gentle, very sincere, "It is Xinrui's blessing to be able to serve Uncle Ruobing."

While speaking, those disciples of the Yin Sha Sect also came up to pay their respects one after another, their attitudes were almost humble.

The ranks in the Yin Sha Sect are very strict, and the dignity and inferiority are clearly defined. Any disrespect to those with high status may endanger their lives.Therefore, the disciples of the Yin Sha Sect are extremely cautious in their actions on weekdays.

Wang Longyan nodded at them, chatted with Wu Xinrui for a few more words, then looked at the blue and purple Phoenix bells in the flower bed, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's well raised. It seems that you have really spent a lot of money. thought."

Wu Xinrui smiled and pulled the hair that fell to her ears: "Master Ruo Bing is happy. You are the future saint of our Yin Sha Sect. You have a noble status, and it is our duty to serve you."

Wang Longyan nodded and said nothing more.After all, this blue and purple wind chime has nothing to do with her old patriarch, Ning Wei, so naturally she doesn't have any real feelings for her.The so-called hometown is only fabricated.

However, the girl who was in charge of her identity story was very meticulous, and arranged all the details very delicately.

At this time, the maid had already delivered the Bingqin Frost Cake.

Wu Xinrui personally arranged tables and chairs for her and made tea for her so that she could have snacks while enjoying the flowers.

After getting along for a period of time, she has also become familiar with Wang Longyan's character, knowing that she is not very talkative, but likes to be lively, so she poured tea for her and casually talked about some interesting stories from hearsay.

Wang Longyan listened casually, nodded from time to time, echoed a few words, and by the way sorted out the things she said in her mind and extracted useful information.

During this time, although no one arranged things for her, she was actually quite busy.

Her energy was mainly focused on two things.

The first is naturally cultivation.

The main purpose of her coming to the Yin Sha Sect is to obtain the "Yin Sha Treasure", and cultivation is naturally the most important thing.

Since becoming the direct disciple of Qi Hongzhao, the patriarch of the Yin Sha Sect, Qi Hongzhao has given her the first half of the exercises in the Yin Sha Canon.She has been studying this exercise during this period of time, and tried to practice it, and found that the compatibility of this exercise is quite high, and it can be practiced together with "The True Method of Xuanbing Suffering the Phoenix".

Among the exercises, there is even a separate chapter, which is dedicated to explaining different types of blood, and how to transform and how to be compatible with Xuanwu monks who originally practiced other exercises.

Obviously, for the inheritance of the book, this situation should be quite common for her now.

In addition, Qi Hongzhao even gave her another book of practice experience, which is said to be from one of the previous demon kings of the Yin Sha Sect, who also cultivated the power of ice evil, so she can use it for reference.

It has to be said that the Yin Sha Sect is worthy of being a powerful force that has stood for seven to eight thousand years, and it was also a lineage of the True Demon Palace before the establishment of the Yin Sha Sect.The practice experience left by these ancestors alone is already an extremely precious heritage and wealth.

This book of cultivation experience that Qi Hongzhao casually handed over to her can make countless monks of the magic way break their heads.

After a few months, Wang Longyan has basically completed the transformation of true qi. Although there is no obvious improvement in cultivation, he can clearly feel that the profound qi is more condensed, and the combat power is also more than a step stronger.

Among them, the most improved is the use of the power of ice fiend.

Although she had mastered the power of ice fiend in the past, because she didn't have any high-end exercises in related fields, she could only use it as the power of mysterious ice.

But now, she has proficiently mastered many high-end applications of Ice Fiend, and she has a lot more understanding of the evil spirit.

Although she has not yet accepted further inheritance, she feels that with her current strength, it should be no problem to beat the ordinary late stage of the Purple Mansion Realm, and she can even try her hand at the Supernatural Power Realm.

In addition, she dedicated part of her energy to paying attention to the changes in the Yin Fiend Sect, trying to figure out what the three big figures from the Hall of True Demons wanted to do when they came here.

Although Shou Zhe said, let her focus on her own safety, and don't worry about intelligence.But as the ancestor of the Wang family, she now occupies the unique status of Qi Hongzhao's direct disciple, so there is really no way not to care.

Unfortunately, she failed to get the result from Qi Hongzhao.

Qi Hongzhao didn't intentionally guard against her, but he felt that her cultivation was too weak now, and the most important thing right now was to cultivate. He was afraid that she would be distracted by trivial matters, so he specifically told his subordinates not to bother her with these things.So much so that she has been in the Yin Fiend Sect for so long, and she still rarely hears news about it.

Wang Longyan was afraid of arousing Qi Hongzhao's suspicion, so she had no choice but to show a look of disinterest, and began to focus on other details.

If the Yin Fiend Sect wants to do something, there will inevitably be a transfer of personnel and materials, and these cannot be concealed.Especially the disciples from all walks of life below, they all have to rely on these jobs to earn money and practice, and the news is the most well-informed.

It is also extremely easy to get information out of their mouths.As long as they ask themselves, they dare not not answer.

During this period of time, she has gained a lot, and the news has been sent back one after another, but I don't know if Shou Zhe has received it.

"By the way~ Uncle Mingya has a young disciple who looks handsome and is called 'Hang Ruofeng'. Uncle Master still has an impression?" Wu Xinrui rolled up her sleeves while cutting Bingqin frost cake into suitable The small block at the entrance said casually, "Some time ago he was sent by the master to the Western Jin Dynasty, but he was kidnapped by a transformed Northern Wilderness Snow Fox on the way."

"..."

Wang Longyan was greatly shocked and couldn't help hesitating for a moment.

"and after?"

"Later, Master Mingya knew about this and smashed the table in anger, saying that he had completely embarrassed Yin Shazong. Of course, the old man went to Beihuang to catch him in the end. Come out, and then punish him not to go down the mountain again for 100 years, so he can practice hard on the mountain." Wu Xinrui was also quite speechless, "If you want me to say, that kid probably asked for it himself. After all, he usually likes to provoke girls in the sect. Disciple, you are even more unscrupulous when you go out of the house, maybe you just saw the charming and charming human form of the North Wilderness Snow Fox, and you got a wrong idea, and you kicked it on the iron board."

Wang Longyan pondered for a moment, then asked: "Then his mission to the Western Jin Dynasty..."

"Of course it was replaced by someone else." Wu Xinrui didn't care, and added hot tea to Wang Longyan, "There are many people in the Zongli, but it's just an errand task. Bring them back and refine them." Become a corpse puppet, just send it back, and it won't be too difficult."

"If it weren't for the fact that the demand for corpse puppets in the Western Jin Dynasty is a bit high this time, tens of thousands of slaves were sent at one time, and there is no need for the direct disciples to come forward, just let the people below take responsibility."

Wu Xinrui's tone was downplaying, but Wang Longyan's heart skipped a beat.

Tens of thousands of corpse puppets!

What is the Western Jin Dynasty planning to do? !Is it possible...

She didn't even bother to cast aside the system of the Western Jin Dynasty, but felt that the ominous premonition in her heart was getting heavier and heavier, and a certain guess was about to come out.

She wanted to ask about Nan Qin's situation, but when she opened her mouth, she remembered Shou Zhe's explanation, so she stopped abruptly, and reluctantly turned a corner: "Is there enough material to refine so many corpse puppets at once?"

"Hey~ Shizun is also worried~" Wu Xinrui didn't notice anything wrong at all, "The materials in Zongli's inventory were almost used up when refining corpse puppets for Nanqin. The price has been raised, and if you are in a hurry to collect it, you will spend more money, I have heard Master secretly complaining several times."

"In such a hurry? Can't you practice later?" Wang Longyan frowned more and more.

"It doesn't seem to be possible." Wu Xinrui sighed, "I don't know what the specific situation is. I only heard from Master that it seems to be related to the Temple of True Demons. We can't help it."

Wang Longyan couldn't help recalling that meeting back then.

After the three demon lords from the Temple of True Demons arrived, Qi Hongzhao sealed off the temple. Not only did she not know what happened inside, even Yin Fengtu couldn't enter.

Afterwards, Yin Snake Demon Girl and Blood Boy Demon Lord left soon, but the iron tower-like Ancient Elephant Demon Lord stayed behind, and now lives on a separate hill next to the temple, far away from her Mingfeng. It's not too far away.

After that, the Yin Fiend Sect became inexplicably busy.

Except for the outer disciples in the courtyard who are responsible for cultivating spiritual plants, the other disciples in the sect seem to be very busy, and I can often see their backs walking in a hurry.But, in fact, nothing particularly big happened in the Yin Fiend Sect. Those disciples were busy, and they were all stockpiling supplies.

Coupled with the large-scale refining of corpse puppets in the Western Jin and Southern Qin...

Everything points to a possibility.They are preparing for something.

And that matter, the biggest possibility is - the national war!
But why did the Palace of True Demons let the Western Jin Dynasty and the Southern Qin Dynasty start the national war?What good can it do for them to target Daqian?
Wang Longyan only felt his scalp go numb, and couldn't figure out the cause and effect relationship at all for a moment.But there is one thing that she is very clear about, that is, she must quickly pass this news back to Mrs. Wang!

Today's Wang family is a family connected with the fate of the Dagan Kingdom, and cannot tolerate any mistakes.

……

the same time period.

Dagan, Longzuo County, Changningwei, Xinping Town Port.

The huge port is full of traffic and bustling. Every day, countless ships enter the sea, or go north to Qingluowei, or go south to Baidaowei, or go up the Anjiang River to transport goods to various inland areas. county.

With the development of time, Wangshi Xinping Port has gradually become the largest port in Longzuo County, with a huge daily throughput.At the same time, it also brought huge wealth to the Wang family.

now.

Under the high cantilever of the refiner, one after another huge cargo boxes are being hoisted by ropes, moving towards the large cargo ship in a fixed direction little by little.

On the pier, muscular men were shouting loudly to move, load, and unload goods in an orderly manner. From a distance, they looked like busy ant colonies.

While he was busy, a young man with a long sword came over with a small group of people.

These people are all wearing standard soft armor and holding standard long swords. The clothes on their bodies are obviously distributed uniformly. The emblems of the Wang family are embroidered on the skirts and cuffs. They are obviously Wang's patrol team.

"Captain Zhuge."

Seeing this group of people, one of the muscular men immediately came out to greet the young man in charge, bowing his hands and saluting with a respectful and familiar attitude.

Obviously, the two sides are old acquaintances.

"Have you found anyone acting suspicious recently?" The young man returned a salute, then pulled the person aside, pretending to be chatting, but actually asked with his spiritual sense, "Is there anything special about the few people you paid attention to recently?" trend?"

"Those people have been doing quite well recently. Only one of them left the pier and went to the outer domain, but he hasn't come back yet." The strong man also replied with his spiritual sense, "Don't worry, I'll be here to keep an eye on you. Nothing can go wrong. If there is any news, I will send someone to inform you at once."

The young man nodded: "Okay. Then continue to work hard and keep watching."

"Where is it?" The brawny man smiled, "It is our honor to be able to work for the Wang family. Is there any hard work? Captain Zhuge, just entrust us with the task."

After chatting for a few words, the young man got some trivial news from the strong man, and then he took the man away and went to another place to patrol.

The young man named "Zhuge Liangcai" is the captain of the patrol at the pier, and also works part-time in some grassroots intelligence work.

It's not complicated, just connect with some people like a strong man, and then bring the news back, and he will not be in charge of the rest.

Like many people here, his ancestors also fled and migrated from other places.

He still remembered that his grandfather once told him that the ancestors of their family, Zhuge Wenyao, Zhuge Tiedan, and Zhuge Cuihua, came to Changningwei more than a hundred years ago, and the Wang family was only an eighth-rank family at that time. , Ping'an Town is still home to many common people, and even Xin'an Town has not yet been developed.

At that time, the ancestors lost their homes due to floods and had to take their wives and children to wander all the way. It was Wang who kindly accepted these refugees, built a refugee camp for them to temporarily settle down, and gave them the opportunity to work. Let them go through the most difficult time, from nothing to gradually becoming human, and later even bought a house.

After more than 100 years, their family has already taken root deeply in this land, and the family has grown from the original four to hundreds of branches, and the same clan has almost spread throughout the four towns of Xinkai.

It's a pity that their family is just ordinary people with weak blood, and there have been no good seeds for cultivation.

Occasionally, an ancestor who is not talented, but is not bad in the blood of the common people, signed a training contract with the Wang family and obtained a Qiling Pill. At the first level, it can only be regarded as a decent clan soldier.

However, with the better life of one generation and the gradual popularization of Qi Ling Pill, the weak bloodline gradually emerged. It was only in this generation that Zhuge Liangcai, the only seedling with a good cultivation talent, appeared.

When he was eight years old, he was detected as a low-rank C-class qualification, and he got a bursary quota provided by the Wang family.

He himself is also up to the mark. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he relied on hard work and diligence to enter the elite class of the Wang family, received a good education, and was included in the training sequence of family generals.

Because of his good fighting talent and his calm and cautious personality, he joined the Wang family's patrol team after graduation and became one of the Wang family's many generals.

Today, it is his tenth year as a member of the Patrol.

Because of his good performance all the time, he has received a lot of rewards. Some time ago, Mr. An Song, who was in charge of the coastal defense, even named him and praised him by name, and mentioned him as the team leader.

Now, he has reached the eighth level of Qi Refining Realm before he is thirty.

According to the rules of Wang's family generals, as long as they have polished their cultivation to the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm Dzogchen before the age of 60, they can receive a Heavenly Spirit Pill and some other auxiliary materials from Wang's treasury.

Maybe, he will become the first person in the Zhuge family to break through the Lingtai Realm.

Although he is the general of the Wang family, he can still take care of other members of the Zhuge family to some extent, so the Zhuge family can be regarded as half a family of cultivation.

As long as they can raise enough money to buy enough land and make great contributions, it is also possible to become an officially conferred ninth-rank family. Now the Wang family also has related policies.

The ancestors more than a hundred years ago, I am afraid that they never thought that Zhuge's family would have such a day~
Thinking of the high expectations of his grandfather, uncles and elders since he was a child, Zhuge Liangcai felt the burden on his shoulders was heavy, and he became more cautious when patrolling.

On patrol.

Suddenly.

There was commotion from the direction of the pier.

Zhuge Liangcai immediately led people to rush over, and led a few people from the patrol team to control the scene, but saw a large light blue fish with a size like a hill swimming leisurely towards the mouth of the sea.

On Big Yu's forehead, there were still three small figures standing.

One of the figures was dressed in white, with a graceful appearance, even if it was so far away, it was easy to notice at a glance.

"It's Young Master An Ye and the two princesses!"

Someone in the patrol immediately reacted and exclaimed.

Zhuge Liangcai's eyes also brightened.

Even if they couldn't see the figure on Big Yu's forehead clearly with their eyesight, they still knew who it was.After all, not everyone is qualified to stand on the forehead of Master Zong Kun.

"Quick! Send someone back quickly to inform the family!" Zhuge Liangcai ordered quickly.

At this time, the entire pier was completely boiling, the crowd was excited, and it was as lively as a festival.

There is no way, Mr. An Ye and the two princesses went out to sea to "herd fish" this time, and they left for a long time.It's been so long that they start to miss them.

This time, Mr. An Ye returned, presumably he could bring back a lot of good things, and even those who depended on the Wang family's industrial system for their livelihood could get a lot of benefits.

After all, who wouldn't like the God of Wealth~
