This was what Fang Zhengzheng was thinking, so he quickly called the waiter and threw out a tael of silver. This was the most convenient way to find out information. ¥℉,
"What happened in Huai'an County? Why are there so many sergeants?"
"I'm asking the right person, but I don't know what the specific matter is. It's just that a month ago, groups of troops came one after another from Huai'an County. I heard that there seemed to be something out of Cangling Mountain. A ferocious beast is raging in the countryside, and now the roads leading to Cangling Mountain are blocked, and Cangling Mountain is also closed."
"Ferocious beast?" Fang Zhengzheng has been in Beishan Village for so many years and has to go into the mountain once a month. Of course he knows how dangerous the depths of Cangling Mountain are, but normally ferocious beasts are smart, and it is not a last resort. You won't go out of the mountains.
Just like the Green Fire Wolf back then.
Creatures like wolves usually live in groups and hunt cooperatively. Like the lone green fire wolf, it is definitely an anomaly in the Cangling Mountains and has been rare to see for decades.
Could it be that there are some aliens running out of the mountains
So many troops were actually used.
What kind of beast could it be
Fang Zhengzheng wanted to ask a few more questions, but the waiter shook his head and said he really didn't know. When he thought about Cangling Mountain being closed for a month, Fang Zhengzheng didn't have much thought to continue eating and drinking.
I hurriedly ordered a few side dishes, and after eating, I walked towards the city gate.
Chi Guyan didn't say anything about this. He looked surprisingly resigned and followed Fang Zhengzheng all the way to the city gate.
only…
As soon as he arrived at the city gate, he was stopped.
Just like the store, the road from Huai'an County to the foot of Cangling Mountain has been blocked.
"stop!"
The spears in the hands of the two sergeants were directly in front of Fang Zhengyi and Chi Guyan. Then, the two looked at the mounts Fang Zhengyi and Chi Guyan were riding on, and looked at each other. Then a sergeant spoke again: "Where are you two young masters going?"
"Beishan Village." Fang Zhengzheng replied.
"Can I have a pass for the military gate?" the sergeant continued to ask.
"No." Fang Zhengzheng shook his head.
"Then I'm afraid we can't pass. The military gate has an order to block all roads in and out of Cangling Mountain. If you two young masters have any military affairs, you might as well go to the military gate and get the token before coming back." The sergeant looked respectful, after all. He could see that Fang Zhengzheng and Chi Guyan were extraordinary as they got off the horse. He was not someone he could afford to offend.
"What military gate token? I won't go!" Fang Zhengzheng continued to shake his head.
"This... please don't embarrass us, young masters. We really can't pass without the military gate's token." The sergeant had a troubled expression on his face.
"What if I insist on going through?"
"Forcibly breaking through without a military gate token... This is disobeying military orders. The two young masters must also know the consequences of doing so, so..."
"It looks so powerful. According to the military regulations. What will be the consequences if you disobey military orders?" Fang Zhengzheng ignored the sergeant and turned his head to Chi Guyan beside him.
"Behead according to the law!" Chi Guyan replied calmly.
"If it's so serious, then you definitely don't dare to break in, right?" Fang Zhengzheng continued to ask.
"You can take a guess."
"I'm too lazy to guess. I always like to go straight to him. If you lose track of me, don't blame me!" After Fang Zhengzheng finished speaking, he stopped his horse. He stepped off the snow dragon pony and let out a long hiss, leaping directly across the level. He ran towards Beishan Village.
Such a scene immediately made the sergeants guarding the checkpoint look at each other, completely unable to react. They knew it was a capital crime, but they still insisted on breaking through
Wait a moment…
It seems like someone is breaking in!
Just as he was about to shout, he saw a white shadow passing by. Chi Guyan, dressed as a scholar in white, jumped over the checkpoint on the red flame snow cloud and galloped away behind Fang Zhengzheng.
Another one? !
Two sergeants, you look at me and I look at you.
"Someone has broken through!" As soon as he shouted, a soldier who looked like a guard leader rushed over quickly.
"What's it called?" the leader-looking soldier shouted.
"Someone broke in, boss, those two boys..."
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
He didn't wait for the two sergeants to finish. The two big mouths were thrown directly into the faces of the two sergeants.
"Do you want to die? You two are blind, but I am not blind. You don't know what that young man was riding just now? The Snow-Stepping Dragon Colt of the Northern Desert Divine Marquis Mansion, that is the horse of Red Feather Guard!" The guard leader looked angry.
"Shenhou Mansion... Red Feather Guards!" The two sergeants looked dull, with cold sweat breaking out from their backs.
Although they have not been in the army for too long and can only serve as guards at the city gate, the names of the Red Feather Guards of the Shenhou Mansion are deeply rooted in their hearts. They are the most elite army of the Shenhou Mansion.
"Those two people just now were Red Feather Guards?!"
"You're blind, there's obviously only one snow dragon pony!"
"Then what kind of guard is the other one?"
"I don't know, but it must be as powerful an army as the Red Feather Guards."
"There is an army in the Northern Desert that is as powerful as the Red Feather Guards. Please don't bully me for not reading enough "Tao Canon"?"
"What I said is true. Does the Zhenguo Mansion know that? The 'Broken Mountain Army' of the Zhenguo Mansion is as powerful as the Red Feather Guards. My uncle told me this personally!"
"Your uncle knows so much!"
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
The two big ear scrapers were thrown on their faces again/
"Shut up, everyone! Can the affairs of the Poshan Army be discussed here? If you two want to die, don't get me involved!"
"Yes, I don't dare to do it anymore."
…
Fang Zhengzheng originally planned to let Chi Guyan look at the horse's butt that he was riding on the snow dragon colt, and eat some ashes on the way, but after running less than half a mile, he realized that something was not right.
The Snow-Taking Dragon Horse was overtaken by Chiyan Xuexia
Moreover, no matter how hard I cracked the whip, I couldn't keep up. I choked on two mouthfuls of dirt along the way. If I choked all the way to Beishan Village, I would definitely choke to death.
Therefore, out of helplessness, Fang Zhengzheng could only "kindly" invite Chi Guyan to walk side by side.
Chi Guyan didn't object.
As a result, the road that could only accommodate one carriage was completely occupied by two people. In addition, there were sergeants stationed along the way guarding it, making it somewhat crowded.
However, because the snow-trodden dragon horse that Fang Zheng was stepping on was too representative among the five northern desert mansions, the sergeants stationed there all got out of the way as soon as they saw it.
Some small military trailers transporting supplies even stopped to avoid the situation.
No one came up to ask Fang Zhengzheng if he had the military gate's token, and there was no obstruction along the way. This made Fang Zhengzheng, who was still a little guilty of being a thief, feel relieved.
"This horse is not bad. How about we go to the Shenhou Mansion and get a hundred more. Each household in our Beishan Village will have one. It will be majestic when we go out." Fang Zhengzheng was riding the snow dragon pony. Said to Chi Guyan.
Chi Guyan ignored Fang Zhengzheng and continued to ride Chi Yan Xue Xia.
"Canngling Mountain is a good place. The grass is the freshest. Moreover, there are ferocious beasts on the mountain, and there is grass and meat. If we bring a hundred horses here to raise them, they will definitely turn into several hundred horses in a year." match."
"When the time comes, we will open a racecourse and let the horses run around in the racecourse, so that we can carefully select some high-quality horses and donate them to the God of Marquis."
"Are you saying that Shenhou Mansion is stupid? You didn't expect such a good thing. Alas... what a pity!"
Fang Zhengzheng saw that Chi Guyan didn't speak, so he continued to mutter to himself.
"The method of raising the Snow-Stepping Dragon Colt is a secret of the Shenhou Mansion, how can it be spread to outsiders?" Chi Guyan finally spoke at this time.
"What you said is so right. Therefore, to complete this great plan, we need to first let Beishan Village be included in the Shenhou Mansion. In this way, it will not be considered a side story, are you right?" Fang Zhengzheng said with a look on his face. Of course.
"You think very far, but why does our Shenhou Mansion include a useless Beishan Village?" Chi Guyan did not directly answer Fang Zhengzheng's words, but asked instead.
"Useless? You are wrong about that. Beishan Village has beautiful scenery and outstanding people. It is definitely a treasure land. I bet that within two months, Beishan Village will be more prosperous than Huai'an County. Do you believe it?"
"Two months?" The expression on Chi Guyan's face finally changed.
"yes."
"Are you serious?"
"certainly."
"Okay, if you can make Beishan Village more prosperous than Huai'an County within two months, I will promise you to incorporate Beishan Village into Shenhou Mansion, but what if you can't do it?"
"How is it possible that it can't be done? Needless to say, this is impossible." Fang Zhengzheng waved his hand casually, with confidence on his face.
"You have a beautiful idea. If you can't do it, within two years, you have to be here whenever I'm told. You have to bake whatever I want!"
"So cruel?"
"If you don't dare, forget it."
"Okay, deal!" Fang Zhengzheng gritted his teeth. In fact, the main reason why he valued money so much outside was because of Beishan Village.
And this time he returned to his hometown, he also wanted to understand some things. With the money he had, he could naturally allow Beishan Village to survive stably, but this was not enough.
If there is no strong force to rely on, no matter how much money he has, it will be impossible to keep it. Therefore, he must find a backer for Beishan Village.
And in the Northern Desert, which backing can be bigger than the Shenhou Mansion
…
A few hours later, Fang Zhengyi and Chi Guyan finally arrived at the entrance of Beishan Village. A clear river flowed through the entrance of the village as usual.
However, the difference is that some women working in the fields at the entrance of the village at this time are missing today.
"The weather is so nice, why don't you work and be lazy?" Fang Zhengzheng muttered casually, and without thinking much, he headed straight for his home.
Soon, he heard the noise coming from the square. (To be continued.)u
