Chapter 372 The epilogue and the second hole card
Seven days later.
Old land, Zihong City.
"Slow down, slower still, if this tabletop gets even a little scratched, I won't be able to afford the loss even if I sell your whole family!"
The soft-spoken white-faced man held his waist and directed several slave men to move the heavy desk.
Although his tone was rude, he was telling the truth. This table was purple with gold and exuded a delicate fragrance. It was an extremely valuable ornament.
"Put it here, yes, yes, okay. You guys can go out to receive the reward and be happy too!"
The coolie man bowed his head and retreated. The white-faced man with a sharp voice trotted to Daan Chongwu and said with a flattering smile:
"Master Chongwu, this is a gift from the nobles of Zihong City. Are you satisfied with it?"
"Yeah." Da'an Chongwu responded calmly and waved his hand to let him out.
"Remember, you must call me City Lord from now on."
"Yes, yes! Lord City Lord!"
The white-faced man broke out in a cold sweat and quickly left here.
In the study, Da An Chongwu rubbed the purple tabletop and remained silent for a long time.
After the collapse of Magnetic Mother Yuanshan, everyone in Da An believed that Mutuo Tuo and Da An Qingyin were dead. After a simple search, they withdrew to Qingtian Territory.
Because of his outstanding performance, Da An Chongwu caught the attention of the clan elders, and he was promoted to the Lord of Zihong City. Because of his outstanding mind, he was even allowed to serve in the family council.
Zihong City is a large city on the border of Qingtian Territory. Young people who join the family council will all become clan elders in the future. The future of Da An Chongwu can be said to be bright.
But now he was alone in the study, and besides being happy, he was more melancholy.
The dark and voiceless rebel clan, for this young man with a rift in his heart, this period of time is an excellent ladder to climb up.
It's a pity that although he did a good job, it was not good enough.
Ancestor Chonglan has been busy these days selecting tribesmen of the right age. Mountains, seas, and clouds drink to relieve their sorrows every day. The former cannot reach high places, while the latter hides in remote places all day long to avoid visitors.
The mountains, seas, and clouds suddenly lost their backer.
"That's all, that's all. Let's be the lord of Zihong City for a while, cultivate our own army, and then try to establish a dedicated trade route with Youxuan Territory. The collapse of Magi Yuan Mountain may be an opportunity..."
He calculated quietly, sat down at the purple gold table, and touched the rattle.
The guard walked in and knelt down on one knee.
"Lord City Lord, what are your orders?"
"Give Master Liuyun a bowl of warm soup, with more soothing and refreshing herbs... Oh, by the way, and some animal milk dumplings. Drinking all day long will hurt your body and make you even sadder."
"yes!"
"Also, let's pass on, the number of people in the Great Dark is very small, and for the continuation of the royal family, the chief of this city will personally take care of it, share the worries of our family, and start arranging some noble girls of the right age."
"yes!"
The guards left and began to convey the city lord's will.
Da An Chongwu knew that tonight, a beautiful young woman would be delivered to his house for him to enjoy.
However, he has made a decision that he will never touch these women.
Da An Chong Wu wanted to refuse righteously in front of the sober Shan Hai Liu Yun!
He wants to show that he is not a hothead, but a reliable and steady young hero!
In this way, Shanhai Liuyun can be more concerned about his marriage and introduce him to people from the Shanhai tribe who have a higher status.
How to deal with mountains, seas and flowing clouds? Da An Chongwu is very knowledgeable.
"A woman is not in a hurry. Once the mountains, seas and clouds are gone, I can enjoy them to my heart's content, but now, I have to endure..."
Da An Chongwu thought silently, opened the report, and carefully
To be fair, he is indeed a qualified city lord. When reading the reports of his subordinates, he never slacks off at all. Instead, he writes his own opinions in the blank space, and he does not hesitate to reward good advice when he encounters it.
Time passed, but Da An Chongwu's hand suddenly stopped while he was looking through a certain memorial.
"To inform the city lord, there is a Xuhua stone mine thirty miles southeast of Zihong. However, during the inspection the day before yesterday, we found traces of churning in the soil. We suspect thieves. Please send additional guards to station here..."
A terrifying inspiration exploded from the head of Da An Chongwu. He had always been a ruthless and wise gambler, and he realized all of this in an instant:
The reason why the person who helped Damian Qingyin and Mutuo didn't leave Zihong City immediately that day was because of the Xuhua Stone Mine!
It is usually soft and tough, but is harder than steel when heated. With this thing, the three people can survive in the ruins of Magmu Yuanshan.
Now, Mutuo and Dayan Qingyin are seriously injured, and no one knows they are still alive.
Da An Chongwu's breathing quickened, and he realized that this was an excellent opportunity to change his destiny.
I must act quickly...
boom!
A loud thunder suddenly exploded in Zihong City, and Daanyun Liuyun subconsciously looked towards the place where the sound came from.
There is a side courtyard where Shan Hai Liu Yun drinks alcohol all day long.
"...what happened?"
Da An Chongwu suppressed his surging mood and thought of going to Shanhai Liuyun first, but to his surprise, there was no sign of the eldest son of Shanhai Royal Family in the side courtyard.
After searching to no avail, Da An Chongwu didn't care anymore. He gave a few orders and then quietly left Zihong alone and rushed towards the Netherworld Realm.
However, what he didn't expect was that half an hour later, he saw a familiar figure coming towards him.
"Shanhai...Liuyun? How did he become like this?"
Shanhai Liuyun, who was rushing towards Zihong City, was already dressed in an extremely downcast manner. His elegant white robe had become tattered, and his face had not been washed. His tears were clear, and he must have cried. His skin was black and white. It looks like it just came out of the mine.
"This guy drank too much and went out to act like a drunkard?"
Da An Chongwu frowned, gathered his mood, and faced the mountains, seas, and clouds.
"Brother Liuyun, when did you..."
He only said half of his words, and the other half was blocked by the sharp silver gun.
The mountains and seas and the flowing clouds were as fast as thunder, and their strikes were extremely decisive. The moment they saw Da An Chongwu, they threw their spears with all their strength and nailed Da An Chongwu to death in the wilderness.
"This is the second time I've killed you, Da An Chong Wu."
Faced with Da An Chongwu's disbelieving eyes, Shanhai Liuyun looked indifferent. He pulled out his silver spear and cut off Da An Chongwu's head.
"I...can never let you, a hungry wolf, spy on Qingyin."
Shanhailiuyun spoke calmly, dragged his tired body and left the place.
He didn't even dispose of the body, he just hoped that the Daan family would focus on him and Qingyin would be safer.
The mountains, seas and flowing clouds that descended directly on this future from that day are the most suitable to do the finishing work. Besides the "Collapse of Magnetic Mother Yuanshan", it is Shen Bai's second trump card!
…
Shanhai Liuyun walked on the grassland. He did not go to the Youxuan Territory to find Da An Qingyin and Mutuo, nor did he go to the border to find Shen Bai who had the feeling of "digging holes together". Instead, he left the Qingtian Territory and headed toward the Shanhai family's clan land. Go to the "Red Cold Territory".
He actually wanted to have a good chat with Shen Bai about things in Magmu Yuanshan, but unfortunately, it was not the right time and he didn't have the time.
The Shanhai royal family has sent five flying dragon messages to him, asking Shanhai Liuyun, as the eldest son, to return to the clan immediately.
Chapter completed!
