Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

For most residents of Chen State, the sky above their heads changed overnight.

Many people who are slow to respond are not aware of it, and they still get up early and are busy with their own livelihood. Who will rule in their place? What does it have to do with them, the common people?

Elder Jiang and others from the Sun Moon Alliance took the seriously injured Elder Zhong with them, and after evacuating Chendu City, they flew south.

According to the original agreement with the Ji family, Chendu was used as the boundary. The west of Chendu belonged to the Sun and Moon Alliance, and the east of Chendu belonged to the Ji family.

Although they have no choice but to evacuate Chendu, at least the large area west of Chendu has fallen to the Sun-Moon Alliance.

The initial goal of occupying at least one piece of territory and never wandering again has been achieved.

It is impossible to withdraw from Chen State now. Chen Du's interests can be compromised, but it is impossible to spit out the meat that has been eaten in the mouth. All members of the Sun Moon Alliance will not agree.

"Elder Jiang, what should we do next? Do we want to contact Wu Kingdom?"

Three Nascent Souls stood on the top of a mountain, looking hatefully in the direction of Chen Du.

Even before the incident, the Sun-Moon Alliance naturally thought that the Ji family might cross the river and burn the bridge.

The Sun-Moon Alliance also has a backup plan. In the Wu Kingdom to the east of the Chen Kingdom, there is a noble family that has some relationship with the Sun-Moon Alliance, and the two parties have cooperated many times.

At the critical moment, some benefits can be used in exchange for the opponent to attack Ji's family from the east, and form a pincer attack on Ji's family from the east and west with the Sun and Moon Alliance.

This is exactly what is said about driving a tiger to devour a wolf and killing someone with a borrowed knife.

Now that Ji's family has launched in advance, it's time to put alternative plans on the agenda.

But at this moment Elder Jiang shook his head and did not agree immediately.

"I'm afraid it's easy to ask gods but hard to send them away. No noble family in the world can feed them easily."

Several people deeply agreed with Elder Jiang's words.

I'm afraid that instead of driving the tiger away, it will lead to the wolf entering the house. After all, the cooperative relationship between the two parties is very fragile.

"What should we do? This is also a last resort. Dora's forces will enter and muddy the water. It is better than fighting against the Ji family alone now, right?"

"Originally, this was the only way to go, but now we have a more suitable goal."

Elder Jiang gently stroked the three long strands of beard on his chin, said with a smile, and looked north.

At this time, Mei Yun also suddenly realized something.

"Are you talking about the children of the Chen family who escaped?"

"Exactly!"

"Okay! This is a great plan!" Elder Zhong, who was seriously injured at this time, couldn't help but admired.

The three of them are all old foxes who have lived for countless years, and many things are easy to understand.

During this battle, Chen Wanggong, the most cultivated person in the Chen family, blew himself up. Before the battle, two Nascent Soul monks were ambushed and killed, and another Nascent Soul monk was beheaded in the Heavenly Palace.

The Chen family lost a total of four Nascent Soul stage masters, including Chen Wujiu, and there should be three Nascent Soul cultivators who escaped.

Together with the two flying warships that escaped, Chen Wujiu should still have the strength to fight.

If they can get help from the Sun-Moon Alliance, it should be no problem for the two families to work together to defeat the Ji family.

Cooperating with the Sun-Moon Alliance is Chen Wujiu's best choice at this stage.

As long as Chen Wujiu has not been blinded by hatred, he should not refuse to cooperate with the Sun-Moon Alliance. To put it bluntly, it is actually mutual use, which is beneficial to both parties.

"It's just that we have just joined forces with the Ji family to attack the Chen family, causing the Chen family to perish. It would be extremely dangerous to contact Chen Wu Jiu here."

Although cooperation would benefit both sides, after all, it was the hatred of the father's murder, and they were irreconcilable. The direct murderer was Ji Xuanzi, and the Sun-Moon Alliance was an accomplice, so it was inevitable that the other party would take out the envoy.

If a cannon fodder with low cultivation level is sent as an envoy and has no weight, it will be difficult to win Chen Wu Jiu's trust.

At this time, Elder Zhong pushed away Zhong Shuyi who was supporting him, staggered a bit and then said:

"It's better for me, an old man, to take a trip."

"Grandpa! Let me go!"

Zhong Shuyi was worried about Elder Zhong's safety, so he quickly volunteered.

The three Nascent Soul elders glanced at the beautiful Zhong Shuyi and shook their heads secretly in their hearts.

If someone else were to go on an envoy, the outcome was not yet known, but if Zhong Shuyi was asked to go on an envoy, he would probably be beaten by a meat bun and a dog, and even if he did not die, he would have to suffer some humiliation.

Elder Zhong waved his hand to stop Zhong Shuyi from continuing to speak.

He was the only descendant of the Zhong family with fairly good qualifications. Originally, he had intended to bring Zhong Shuyi and Mei Yingxue together, and the marriage between the Zhong and Mei families would be beneficial without any harm.

Zhong Shuyi and Mei Yingxue grew up together and were considered childhood sweethearts. However, Zhong Shuyi did not come first.

Perhaps due to the influence of Mei Yingxue since childhood, the two of them actually developed into best friends, spending all day studying rouge, gouache, and needlework.

Want to get married, sorry, gender incompatibility.

Whenever it was quiet at night, Elder Zhong could only lament silently.

The three elders of the Sun-Moon Alliance are about the same age. He is the only one with white hair and an old look. Maybe he is worried.

"Let me go. Anyway, my body is seriously injured and I won't be able to exert any strength in the next battle."

Elder Zhong stuffed another pill into his mouth and straightened his slightly stooped body.

"Two Taoist friends, if I can't return here, I, the descendant of the Zhong family, would like to ask you two to take care of me for a while."

Elder Jiang and Mei Yun nodded at the same time.

Among Yuanying monks, there is no such sensational drama as "Don't leave!" "I want to leave!"

Elder Zhong cupped his hands at a few people and turned into a rainbow of light and flew north.

……………………

In Ningjing County, it was not until Zhang He arranged for his men to post notices to calm the people throughout the city that ordinary residents in the city knew that the city lord had been replaced overnight.

The Qi family that had been sitting on top of them for more than ten thousand years suddenly disappeared, and it was inevitable to feel panic.

Although the Qi family did not do anything good when they were in power, except for oppression and exploitation, over time, everyone has become accustomed to it.

Now that someone has suddenly changed, the unknown is even more frightening.

For a time, people in the county were panicked, rumors spread, and some people even helped the elderly and young to escape from Tingjing City.

In this regard, Zhang He did not have the energy to interfere too much for the time being. He only had 50 people under his command, and Ningjing County had a population of more than 100,000. He still had a lot of resources and wealth to protect, and he couldn't manage it at all.

Most people are very smart when they are alone or two, but once they enter a group, they become conformist and ignorant, and can easily be induced.

Now the panic is left to them, and it won't make any waves anyway.

When the time comes, he will transfer some people from Heishui County to guide him in secret, and introduce the school system. By then, the hundreds of thousands of people in Ningjing County will firmly believe that he is their master.

However, before Zhang He could wait for reinforcements from Blackwater County, he received another message from Shadow Pavilion.

The Sun-Moon Alliance and the Ji family fell out. The Ji family expelled the Sun-Moon Alliance monks from the Chen capital and ordered all the Sun-Moon Alliance monks to withdraw from Chen within three days, otherwise they would be killed without mercy!

Just as Zhang He was hesitating about what to do next, a notice from the Sun-Moon Alliance was also delivered to the helmsmen of each branch.

The Sun-Moon Alliance ordered each branch to detach some of its manpower and assemble 50 miles away from Chendu to jointly defend the Ji family.

As a result, Zhang He's manpower was even more insufficient, and he could only collect some valuable belongings into the space.

Fat Hu was ordered to lead forty people to fight on the front line. He himself stayed in Ningjing County, leaving only a ten-man team and a puppet team.

At the same time, among Fat Tiger's team, there was a mysterious man covered in black robes and wearing a mask on his face.

This person is naturally disguised as a little skeleton. For him, the cruel battlefield is his paradise, rather than watering and farming in space all day long.

On the other hand, the little skeleton can also help out at critical moments and help Fat Tiger.

Little Skeleton suffered the disadvantage of not having a magic weapon in the last battle. After learning from the experience, Zhang He added some materials to the dagger in Little Skeleton's hand and refined it.

Now this short sword has become the little skeleton's magic weapon, which he keeps in his head.

The little skeleton is different from the human race in this regard. His Dantian may be inside his head.

Inside his head was a ball of cold blue flame, and in the center of the flame was a blue golden elixir, with two magic weapons floating outside the golden elixir.

One is his natal magic weapon dagger, and the other is the Ten Thousand Soul Banner that he tried his best to snatch from the hands of the ghost Yuanying in the last demon war.

At first, he was unable to refine and use this flag. Until recently, Zhang He found time to help him refine it every day. Now, the traces of the original owner's use have finally been erased and branded with the flame of the little skull.

Tens of thousands of living souls are stored in the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, which can be released to attack the enemy. There is also a main soul skull in the banner.

The little skeleton might have thought that the skull looked like him, so he tried his best to grab this magic weapon.

After Fat Hu and others left, Zhang He ignored the fears of the city residents and returned to the city lord's palace and found a secret room to practice.

There are two small spiritual veins in this city lord's mansion. The spiritual energy is similar to that of his Blackwater City, but there are fewer people practicing it, so the spiritual energy in this secret room is very good.

Zhang He took out a golden elixir and drank it. The elixir he cultivated himself was not yet mature. This elixir was found in the Qi family's treasury.

The elixirs that assist training in the golden elixir stage are relatively scarce, and the Qi family can only be considered middle-class among the nobles of the Chen Kingdom, and is not particularly wealthy.

Of course, this is a relative term. Compared with the Jindan families in Lu State, the Qi family is extremely rich.

There are 12 Yuan Yang Pills hidden in the Qi family's treasury. The two brothers are reluctant to eat them. Now Zhang He has taken advantage of them all. He has no intention of saving them for the New Year.

A grain of Yang Yuan Dan entered his belly and slowly melted in his belly, and streams of pure spiritual energy were refined into mana.

The efficiency of taking elixirs to practice is indeed much faster than meditating to absorb spiritual energy. The training speed can be at least several times faster.

According to the elixir refining speed, it will take at least half a month for this elixir to be completely refined into mana.

In the next few days, apart from practicing every day, Zhang He would spend the rest of his time refining the puppet.

At his current level, he can only make a puppet during the Qi training period.

He didn't care about it, things had to be done step by step.

During the Qi training period, the puppet is a little too weak and may be useless in the hands of other Jindan monks, but he has a rocket launcher in his hand.

Each puppet carries two rocket launchers, which is equivalent to a mobile rocket launcher. As long as it can launch the rocket launchers, it is considered a consumable.

However, these puppets are too weak and can only use ordinary rocket launchers, which are a little more powerful than Foundation Establishment, but far from the golden elixir.

So if you really encounter a golden elixir opponent, unless there are hundreds of puppets surrounding you, you have to do it yourself.

When he was working on refining weapons, he would occasionally enter the space to take a look.

Various elixirs are growing vigorously in the space, and the Qinglong tree whose main trunk he cut off last time has grown new branches.

This should be able to grow steadily for one or two thousand years.

The Yun Shenmu, which I bought at a high price from the Heavenly Palace last time, is now a hundred years old under the careful care of the little skeleton. It is taller than Zhang He, and should be almost a foot tall.

At this moment, the clone is controlling the Aowu puppet, dragging its twisting and twisting body to pick spiritual tea next to the Soothing Tea Tree.

Tea trees naturally grow slowly and are shrubs that cannot grow very high. However, if they grow for enough years, they can still grow into towering trees.

This Yangshen tea tree was harvested and planted in the space for several years. Now the Yangshen tea tree has grown to the height of a person, and the tea production has also increased a lot.

After pouring water almost a dozen times, you can pick half a liang of tea, which is enough for Zhang He to drink by himself.

Since the last time he separated into a clone, his soul and consciousness have still not fully recovered. Drinking the nourishing tea can speed up the recovery.

Zhang He took some refined Yunshen tea from the clone's hand, and then the space was created.

Sitting alone in the library, brewing a pot of Yunshen tea and a tattered book, it seemed very leisurely.

There was a jade slip hidden in the torn book, which was a frontline battle report and other news sent from the Shadow Pavilion.

One of the messages caught Zhang He's attention.

In just these two days, within the Sun-Moon Alliance, the branches of two counties were wiped out by mysterious forces.

You know, the Sun-Moon Alliance is now focusing all its attention on the war with the Ji family on the front line. Most of its forces have been transferred to the front. The rear is already empty. If someone does this again, I am afraid it will cause unrest on the front.

Maybe this was Ji's handwriting originally.

Zhang He was looking at the jade slip in his hand, and suddenly he frowned, and a hill appeared above his head.

"Boom boom boom!"

Four intensive attacks in a row fell on Five Elements Mountain. The entire library, together with the countless jade slips inside, was shattered in an instant and turned into ruins.

"Hide your head and show your tail, get out!"

Following Zhang He's loud shout, four monks appeared from around the city lord's mansion.

The four men were all dressed in black and had devil masks on their faces.

"It's a pity that I couldn't kill it with one blow! This hill magic weapon is good, I want it."

A man in black felt a little regretful that in the case of a sneak attack, few golden elixirs could survive a combined attack from the four of them.

What they didn't know was that Zhang He's consciousness was several levels higher than theirs, so it was not easy to make a sneak attack.

Zhang He didn't talk nonsense to them. He valued books the most in his life. These people destroyed his library, and he was already determined to kill them.

At this time, five puppets emerged from the city lord's mansion, each carrying a rocket launcher on their shoulders.

After the puppet appeared, without any delay, five rocket launchers roared towards the four people in front of them.
