"This man has no good intentions and insists on sneaking into the lake for fun. Let's just wait for the river beast to devour him. Taking away the belongings he left behind is not considered robbery. Wouldn't it be nice? Miao Xiong, you must remind us. What is this guy doing?" The white-faced young man next to the man with the beard was eager to see what happened to Chen Hai, and blamed the man with the beard for not reminding Chen Hai.

The white-faced young man was scolded by the bearded man. He looked a little confused and said angrily: "This guy is seeking death on his own. What will it do to me? I just made a joke, Miao Xiong, can you take it seriously?"

"Brother, have you found any treasures at the bottom of this lake?" The white-faced young man had sunken eye sockets and a narrow nose. He could tell at a glance that he was a Qiang Hu. He stared at him with sinister eyes and asked jokingly.

Although Lucheng still remains neutral at this time, its combat readiness has been greatly enhanced compared to before.

Even on issues such as Dong Ning's identity at this time and Ye's restoration of the country, Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang all have different opinions and positions.

Although the area of Tianxuan Lake is much smaller than Juquan Ridge, it is still worthy of the Jingjue Guards Army sending troops to occupy it.

In addition to the developed business and travel industry, Lucheng's handicraft industry closely related to business travel is also extremely developed - this is the second important factor that Chen Hai values in Lucheng. The developed handicraft industry means that Lucheng has a large number of skilled craftsmen and craftsmen, and also has many handicraft industries. Workshops and workshops.

In the past, Lucheng had a total of 2,000 guards affiliated with the City Lord's Mansion. Therefore, Lucheng was extremely wealthy. In addition to recruiting the city's brave soldiers as soldiers, it also recruited a large number of martial arts cultivators from the entire Pinglu Oasis as military attachés. The soldiers and armor are also very sophisticated, making the Lucheng City Guards a strong fighting force in the more than 40 cities of Pinglu Oasis.

"Oh." The bearded man frowned, not believing Chen Hai's words, and it showed directly on his face. His attitude suddenly became cold, as if he regretted inviting Chen Hai over for a drink.

This person thought he had lowered his voice, but he didn't expect that even if the wind and water surged here, Chen Hai could still hear the slight chirping of ants within a hundred feet. He smiled in his heart. The same rice feeds all kinds of people. The bearded man looks rude, but in the end is he? Although he has good intentions, the white-faced young man just wants others to encounter natural and man-made disasters so that he can benefit from them.

Chen Hai did not continue to drill deeper. When he drilled to a depth of almost 300 meters, he could already confirm that the quenched gold placer content in the lake mud was of smelting value. He had now penetrated 400 meters deep into the lake mud. There is no bottom, which means that this Tianxuan Lake has at least deposited a layer of quenched gold sand ore nearly one hundred meters thick.

"This man has no good intentions and insists on sneaking into the lake for fun. Let's just wait for the river beast to devour him. Taking away the belongings he left behind is not considered robbery. Wouldn't it be nice? Miao Xiong, you must remind us. What is this guy doing?" The white-faced young man next to the man with the beard was eager to see what happened to Chen Hai, and blamed the man with the beard for not reminding Chen Hai.

In the view of Miao Xiong, who has the most outright temperament, Dong Ning is just a puppet and a chess piece of the Dong family when they set foot in the Pinglu Oasis. The Ye family will inevitably be under Dong's control even more deeply if they use the power of the Dong family to restore the country. They can no longer be regarded as the royal family of the Western Qiang Kingdom, but Miao Xiong does not recognize the Zhang family who rebelled and usurped the throne.

No matter where the business travelers walking in the Xixia Corridor start and end, Lucheng, located on the eastern edge of Pinglu Oasis, is the stopping point chosen by most business travelers. This highlights that Lucheng is not only in terms of city size, but also in The status of Pinglu Oasis is second only to the royal capital located on the north shore of Pinglu Sea.

The position of Lord of Changle City has been in the hands of the He family since Emperor Yitian's Western Expedition. He Chengzhang and He Dechang should both be descendants of the He family. The He family did not clearly stand up and declare surrender to the rebels, nor did they expressly support the remnants of the Ye family. Like the several aristocratic families who jointly controlled Lucheng, they all remained neutral; therefore, Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang were not from Yanzhou. Chen Hai doesn't have much hostility.

When Chen Hai emerged from the water, it was already dark, but the three young men were still lighting a bonfire by the lake and drinking wine on the ground. They did not expect that Chen Hai had been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long, and they thought that Chen Hai had gone somewhere else from the bottom of the lake. went.

At this time, Chen Hai took a closer look at the city walls and streets of Lucheng. He suspected that Lucheng had expanded its armaments during this period. The size of the city guards had more than doubled, and should be more than 4,000 at this time.

"Brother, have you found any treasures at the bottom of this lake?" The white-faced young man had sunken eye sockets and a narrow nose. He could tell at a glance that he was a Qiang Hu. He stared at him with sinister eyes and asked jokingly.

"We are all on a journey to the end of the world, and we are destined to meet each other. Brother He, how can you have such thoughts?" The bearded man scolded his companions unhappily.

Chen Hai has been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long. It is easy to think of him as diving into the bottom of the lake to find treasures - many mystical and martial arts practitioners often do this when they travel around the world. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Chen Hai has been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long.

Lucheng still chose neutrality at this time and was relatively lenient towards people entering and exiting. However, if Chen Hai wanted to gather more information on his own, he also needed to fabricate a relatively reliable identity and contact Lucheng's business travelers.

Qi Hanjiang was shocked when he saw Chen Hai's face twisting slightly for a while before returning to its original rough and unruly appearance.

The white-faced young man was scolded by the bearded man. He looked a little confused and said angrily: "This guy is seeking death on his own. What will it do to me? I just made a joke, Miao Xiong, can you take it seriously?"

They did not expect that Chen Hai had been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long, and they thought that Chen Hai had gone somewhere else from the bottom of the lake. went.

Chen Hai just smiled in his heart and slowly dived to the bottom of the lake close to the rugged lake shore. But just diving into the bottom of the lake was not enough. If there really was a quenched gold placer mine at the bottom of the lake, it would inevitably settle under extremely deep sand and mud.

The other young man was the peacemaker, and advised the white-faced young man to stop talking to the bearded man. After finally climbing to Lukai Gorge, they could not be in a bad mood for unrelated outsiders.

Of course, in the eyes of the three young men, although Chen Hai was only at the late stage of Tongxuan Realm, it was not surprising that anyone who ran out these days would have several extraordinary water-repelling talismans in his hands.

"Thank you. Chen Lin in Mengcheng, Tianshui County has met many brothers." Chen Hai came over, bowed and introduced himself, and said, "Zhang Xiong suddenly started a war to seize the capital of the Ye family and drive away the daughter of the Dong family. At this time, I don’t know Dong’s attitude. I am afraid that Dong will arrest me as a spy, so I don’t dare to take the road back to Tianshui County from Hexi. I have been trapped in Jiaji, Heiqiu and other cities these days. I just came to Lucheng today. See Is there a caravan going to Hexi..."

In addition to the developed business and travel industry, Lucheng's handicraft industry closely related to business travel is also extremely developed - this is the second important factor that Chen Hai values in Lucheng. The developed handicraft industry means that Lucheng has a large number of skilled craftsmen and craftsmen, and also has many handicraft industries. Workshops and workshops.

Chen Hai didn't mind others misunderstanding that he was a treasure hunter, but at this time he was dressed in a short-sleeved shirt with wet clinging to his body. He spread his hands and signaled that he would come ashore half-naked to find some treasure at the bottom of the lake. There is no place to hide.

At this time, Chen Hai used all his true energy and mana, and bursts of light golden divine energy came out of his body. His body was shaped like a light golden shuttle, and he burrowed into the mud of the lake.

He spread his hands and signaled that he would come ashore half-naked to find some treasure at the bottom of the lake. There is no place to hide.

"You don't mind, brother, can you come over and have a drink to warm yourself up?" The bearded man invited Chen Haidao.

"Is it true that you came here in person?"

At this time, there were five relatively important families in Lucheng, all of which had strong men in the Mingqiao Realm presiding over the situation. It was the alliance of these five families that controlled the military affairs, handicraft industry, and business and travel affairs in Lucheng; even the position of city lord was taken by turns among the five families. sit.

There is nothing particularly mysterious about this method of soil escape. Almost everyone can practice the spiritual realm. However, compared to the methods of controlling wind and water, drilling into soil or even rock strata consumes a huge amount of real energy. There are many, and the movement is much louder. Fortunately, the lake is hundreds of meters deep, and the waves are turbulent. Others standing by the lake cannot detect the movement at the bottom of the lake.

No one knows that Tianxuan Lake has existed for six or seven thousand years. How thick of sediment has accumulated in this lake? Chen Hai used the soil escape technique to squeeze into the sand and mud to a depth of nearly 400 meters. Although the gravel layer was thicker than It is getting denser and thicker, but it is still some distance away from the real lake bottom rock formation.

At this time, Lucheng did not exclude the children of Yanzhou from entering and leaving. Chen Hai and the city guards paid a tax. After entering the city, they separated from Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang, saying that they were going to find a place to live by themselves. In an alley in the west of the city, I knocked on the door of a courtyard, only to see Qi Hanjiang opening the door and welcoming Chen Hai in.

"Brother, have you found any treasures at the bottom of this lake?" The white-faced young man had sunken eye sockets and a narrow nose. He could tell at a glance that he was a Qiang Hu. He stared at him with sinister eyes and asked jokingly.

Qi Hanjiang was shocked when he saw Chen Hai's face twisting slightly for a while before returning to its original rough and unruly appearance.

The bearded man is named Miao Xiong, the white-faced young man is named He Chengzhang, and the peacemaker young man is named He Dechang. They are all from Changle City in the west of Pinglu Oasis. They are low-level military attachés in Changle City and were ordered to escort the caravan from the main palace of Changle City. Hexi was also trapped in Lucheng at this time, unable to advance or retreat.

"Thank you. Chen Lin in Mengcheng, Tianshui County has met many brothers." Chen Hai came over, bowed and introduced himself, and said, "Zhang Xiong suddenly started a war to seize the capital of the Ye family and drive away the daughter of the Dong family.

Chen Hai likes this man with a straight beard and a clear mind, but if he wants to enter the city today, it is really difficult to make up a perfect identity; but the young man who is used to being a peacemaker doesn't think Chen Hai If there was anything suspicious, he warmly invited him to sit down, poured a bowl of wine and handed it over, introducing their identities.

It was more than a hundred miles by horse from Heyuan to Lucheng. It was already bright and the city gates were open, so people could not enter or exit.

Drinking wine and admiring the beautiful moonlight in Lukai Gorge, in the early morning, Miao and He packed their bags and returned to Lucheng. He Dechang also invited Chen Hai to go with them to Lucheng; Chen Hai did not refuse and walked down Lukai Gorge. , and saw that the old, thin black horse he had left at the foot of the mountain when he was climbing was still tied to the poplar tree by the pool.

After Emperor Yitian's Western Expedition, the Western Qiang Kingdom was re-established, but the Ye family was unable to reach Lucheng, and no family had exclusive control of Lucheng.

"You don't mind, brother, can you come over and have a drink to warm yourself up?" The bearded man invited Chen Haidao.

Wu Meng, Qi Hanjiang, and Ge Tong did not hold general positions in the Jingjue Army, and did not have the heavy responsibility of commanding and running the army. Chen Hai wanted to recruit strong men to sneak into Lucheng to detect the situation and wait for opportunities. There was really no one like Wu Meng, and Qi Hanjiang and Ge Tong were more leisurely candidates.

"We are all on a journey to the end of the world, and we are destined to meet each other. Brother He, how can you have such thoughts?" The bearded man scolded his companions unhappily.

"Thank you. Chen Lin in Mengcheng, Tianshui County has met many brothers." Chen Hai came over, bowed and introduced himself, and said, "Zhang Xiong suddenly started a war to seize the capital of the Ye family and drive away the daughter of the Dong family. At this time, I don’t know Dong’s attitude. I am afraid that Dong will arrest me as a spy, so I don’t dare to take the road back to Tianshui County from Hexi. I have been trapped in Jiaji, Heiqiu and other cities these days. I just came to Lucheng today. See Is there a caravan going to Hexi..."

The number of residents in Lucheng alone is as high as 70,000 or 80,000, which is much higher than that of cities mainly engaged in animal husbandry and agriculture.

Chen Hai just smiled in his heart and slowly dived to the bottom of the lake close to the rugged lake shore. But just diving into the bottom of the lake was not enough. If there really was a quenched gold placer mine at the bottom of the lake, it would inevitably settle under extremely deep sand and mud.

When Chen Hai emerged from the water, it was already dark, but the three young men were still lighting a bonfire by the lake and drinking wine on the ground. They did not expect that Chen Hai had been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long, and they thought that Chen Hai had gone somewhere else from the bottom of the lake. went.

Lucheng still chose neutrality at this time and was relatively lenient towards people entering and exiting. However, if Chen Hai wanted to gather more information on his own, he also needed to fabricate a relatively reliable identity and contact Lucheng's business travelers.

At this time, Lucheng did not exclude the children of Yanzhou from entering and leaving. Chen Hai and the city guards paid a tax. After entering the city, they separated from Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang, saying that they were going to find a place to live by themselves. In an alley in the west of the city, I knocked on the door of a courtyard, only to see Qi Hanjiang opening the door and welcoming Chen Hai in.

In addition to the developed business and travel industry, Lucheng's handicraft industry closely related to business travel is also extremely developed - this is the second important factor that Chen Hai values in Lucheng. The developed handicraft industry means that Lucheng has a large number of skilled craftsmen and craftsmen, and also has many handicraft industries. Workshops and workshops.

"Oh." The bearded man frowned, not believing Chen Hai's words, and it showed directly on his face. His attitude suddenly became cold, as if he regretted inviting Chen Hai over for a drink.

"Is it true that you came here in person?"

Chen Hai did not continue to drill deeper. When he drilled to a depth of almost 300 meters, he could already confirm that the quenched gold placer content in the lake mud was of smelting value. He had now penetrated 400 meters deep into the lake mud. There is no bottom, which means that this Tianxuan Lake has at least deposited a layer of quenched gold sand ore nearly one hundred meters thick.

Qi Hanjiang was shocked when he saw Chen Hai's face twisting slightly for a while before returning to its original rough and unruly appearance.

Although the area of Tianxuan Lake is much smaller than Juquan Ridge, it is still worthy of the Jingjue Guards Army sending troops to occupy it.

"You don't mind, brother, can you come over and have a drink to warm yourself up?" The bearded man invited Chen Haidao.

"Thank you. Chen Lin in Mengcheng, Tianshui County has met many brothers." Chen Hai came over, bowed and introduced himself, and said, "Zhang Xiong suddenly started a war to seize the capital of the Ye family and drive away the daughter of the Dong family. At this time, I don’t know Dong’s attitude. I am afraid that Dong will arrest me as a spy, so I don’t dare to take the road back to Tianshui County from Hexi. I have been trapped in Jiaji, Heiqiu and other cities these days. I just came to Lucheng today. See Is there a caravan going to Hexi..."

Chen Hai likes this man with a straight beard and a clear mind, but if he wants to enter the city today, it is really difficult to make up a perfect identity; but the young man who is used to being a peacemaker doesn't think Chen Hai If there was anything suspicious, he warmly invited him to sit down, poured a bowl of wine and handed it over, introducing their identities.

This person thought he had lowered his voice, but he didn't expect that even if the wind and water surged here, Chen Hai could still hear the slight chirping of ants within a hundred feet. He smiled in his heart. The same rice feeds all kinds of people. The bearded man looks rude, but in the end is he? Although he has good intentions, the white-faced young man just wants others to encounter natural and man-made disasters so that he can benefit from them.

Although the area of Tianxuan Lake is much smaller than Juquan Ridge, it is still worthy of the Jingjue Guards Army sending troops to occupy it.

The bearded man is named Miao Xiong, the white-faced young man is named He Chengzhang, and the peacemaker young man is named He Dechang. They are all from Changle City in the west of Pinglu Oasis. They are low-level military attachés in Changle City and were ordered to escort the caravan from the main palace of Changle City. Hexi was also trapped in Lucheng at this time, unable to advance or retreat.

Even on issues such as Dong Ning's identity at this time and Ye's restoration of the country, Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang all have different opinions and positions.

However, while sitting down to drink, Chen Hai could still feel that although Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, He Dechang and others did not mind doing business with Hexi, and even fully expected that the trade routes interrupted by the rebellion and war could be opened soon, they had not forgotten it. The bloody war twenty years ago did not support Dong's excessive intervention in the affairs of Pinglu Oasis.

The bloody war twenty years ago did not support Dong's excessive intervention in the affairs of Pinglu Oasis.

In the view of Miao Xiong, who has the most outright temperament, Dong Ning is just a puppet and a chess piece of the Dong family when they set foot in the Pinglu Oasis. The Ye family will inevitably be under Dong's control even more deeply if they use the power of the Dong family to restore the country. They can no longer be regarded as the royal family of the Western Qiang Kingdom, but Miao Xiong does not recognize the Zhang family who rebelled and usurped the throne.

Even on issues such as Dong Ning's identity at this time and Ye's restoration of the country, Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang all have different opinions and positions.

The position of Lord of Changle City has been in the hands of the He family since Emperor Yitian's Western Expedition. He Chengzhang and He Dechang should both be descendants of the He family. The He family did not clearly stand up and declare surrender to the rebels, nor did they expressly support the remnants of the Ye family. Like the several aristocratic families who jointly controlled Lucheng, they all remained neutral; therefore, Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang were not from Yanzhou. Chen Hai doesn't have much hostility.

Chen Hai just smiled in his heart and slowly dived to the bottom of the lake close to the rugged lake shore. But just diving into the bottom of the lake was not enough. If there really was a quenched gold placer mine at the bottom of the lake, it would inevitably settle under extremely deep sand and mud.

The other young man was the peacemaker, and advised the white-faced young man to stop talking to the bearded man. After finally climbing to Lukai Gorge, they could not be in a bad mood for unrelated outsiders.

The white-faced young man was scolded by the bearded man. He looked a little confused and said angrily: "This guy is seeking death on his own. What will it do to me? I just made a joke, Miao Xiong, can you take it seriously?"

"This man has no good intentions and insists on sneaking into the lake for fun. Let's just wait for the river beast to devour him. Taking away the belongings he left behind is not considered robbery. Wouldn't it be nice? Miao Xiong, you must remind us. What is this guy doing?" The white-faced young man next to the man with the beard was eager to see what happened to Chen Hai, and blamed the man with the beard for not reminding Chen Hai.

"Thank you. Chen Lin in Mengcheng, Tianshui County has met many brothers." Chen Hai came over, bowed and introduced himself, and said, "Zhang Xiong suddenly started a war to seize the capital of the Ye family and drive away the daughter of the Dong family.

"You don't mind, brother, can you come over and have a drink to warm yourself up?" The bearded man invited Chen Haidao.

It was more than a hundred miles by horse from Heyuan to Lucheng. It was already bright and the city gates were open, so people could not enter or exit.

However, while sitting down to drink, Chen Hai could still feel that although Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, He Dechang and others did not mind doing business with Hexi, and even fully expected that the trade routes interrupted by the rebellion and war could be opened soon, they had not forgotten it.

He had now penetrated 400 meters deep into the lake mud. There is no bottom, which means that this Tianxuan Lake has at least deposited a layer of quenched gold sand ore nearly one hundred meters thick.

Drinking wine and admiring the beautiful moonlight in Lukai Gorge, in the early morning, Miao and He packed their bags and returned to Lucheng. He Dechang also invited Chen Hai to go with them to Lucheng; Chen Hai did not refuse and walked down Lukai Gorge. , and saw that the old, thin black horse he had left at the foot of the mountain when he was climbing was still tied to the poplar tree by the pool.

Of course, the Lucheng Guards were ultimately in the hands of the children of the five Lucheng clans.

At this time, Chen Hai took a closer look at the city walls and streets of Lucheng. He suspected that Lucheng had expanded its armaments during this period. The size of the city guards had more than doubled, and should be more than 4,000 at this time.

"You don't mind, brother, can you come over and have a drink to warm yourself up?" The bearded man invited Chen Haidao.

At this time, Lucheng did not exclude the children of Yanzhou from entering and leaving. Chen Hai and the city guards paid a tax. After entering the city, they separated from Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang, saying that they were going to find a place to live by themselves.

Even on issues such as Dong Ning's identity at this time and Ye's restoration of the country, Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang all have different opinions and positions.

In the view of the weak-tempered He Dechang, since Dong Ning has married into the Western Qiang Kingdom, as the people of the Western Qiang Kingdom, they should recognize her identity as a young princess and support the Ye family's restoration of the country.

No one knows that Tianxuan Lake has existed for six or seven thousand years. How thick of sediment has accumulated in this lake? Chen Hai used the soil escape technique to squeeze into the sand and mud to a depth of nearly 400 meters. Although the gravel layer was thicker than It is getting denser and thicker, but it is still some distance away from the real lake bottom rock formation.

At this time, there were five relatively important families in Lucheng, all of which had strong men in the Mingqiao Realm presiding over the situation. It was the alliance of these five families that controlled the military affairs, handicraft industry, and business and travel affairs in Lucheng; even the position of city lord was taken by turns among the five families. sit.

Qi Hanjiang was shocked when he saw Chen Hai's face twisting slightly for a while before returning to its original rough and unruly appearance.

He Chengzhang looked indifferent and hoped that when the Ye family and the Zhang family were fighting for the country, he could find an opportunity for personal prosperity.

No matter where the business travelers walking in the Xixia Corridor start and end, Lucheng, located on the eastern edge of Pinglu Oasis, is the stopping point chosen by most business travelers. This highlights that Lucheng is not only in terms of city size, but also in The status of Pinglu Oasis is second only to the royal capital located on the north shore of Pinglu Sea.

However, while sitting down to drink, Chen Hai could still feel that although Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, He Dechang and others did not mind doing business with Hexi, and even fully expected that the trade routes interrupted by the rebellion and war could be opened soon, they had not forgotten it. The bloody war twenty years ago did not support Dong's excessive intervention in the affairs of Pinglu Oasis.

The white-faced young man next to the man with the beard was eager to see what happened to Chen Hai, and blamed the man with the beard for not reminding Chen Hai.

"Is it true that you came here in person?"

Wu Meng, Qi Hanjiang, and Ge Tong did not hold general positions in the Jingjue Army, and did not have the heavy responsibility of commanding and running the army. Chen Hai wanted to recruit strong men to sneak into Lucheng to detect the situation and wait for opportunities. There was really no one like Wu Meng, and Qi Hanjiang and Ge Tong were more leisurely candidates.

However, while sitting down to drink, Chen Hai could still feel that although Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, He Dechang and others did not mind doing business with Hexi, and even fully expected that the trade routes interrupted by the rebellion and war could be opened soon, they had not forgotten it.

From the perspective of the people of the Western Qiang Kingdom, Miao Xiong can be said to have extraordinary insights and the most determined will. If the Western Qiang Kingdom really didn't have so many chaos, Miao Xiong's future achievements should be far greater than those of He Chengzhang and He De Above Chang.

However, while sitting down to drink, Chen Hai could still feel that although Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, He Dechang and others did not mind doing business with Hexi, and even fully expected that the trade routes interrupted by the rebellion and war could be opened soon, they had not forgotten it.

Chen Hai has been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long. It is easy to think of him as diving into the bottom of the lake to find treasures - many mystical and martial arts practitioners often do this when they travel around the world. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Chen Hai has been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long.

It was more than a hundred miles by horse from Heyuan to Lucheng. It was already bright and the city gates were open, so people could not enter or exit.

At this time, Chen Hai used all his true energy and mana, and bursts of light golden divine energy came out of his body. His body was shaped like a light golden shuttle, and he burrowed into the mud of the lake.

"Is it true that you came here in person?"

The bearded man is named Miao Xiong, the white-faced young man is named He Chengzhang, and the peacemaker young man is named He Dechang. They are all from Changle City in the west of Pinglu Oasis.

It was more than a hundred miles by horse from Heyuan to Lucheng. It was already bright and the city gates were open, so people could not enter or exit.

There is nothing particularly mysterious about this method of soil escape. Almost everyone can practice the spiritual realm. However, compared to the methods of controlling wind and water, drilling into soil or even rock strata consumes a huge amount of real energy. There are many, and the movement is much louder. Fortunately, the lake is hundreds of meters deep, and the waves are turbulent. Others standing by the lake cannot detect the movement at the bottom of the lake.

This person thought he had lowered his voice, but he didn't expect that even if the wind and water surged here, Chen Hai could still hear the slight chirping of ants within a hundred feet. He smiled in his heart. The same rice feeds all kinds of people. The bearded man looks rude, but in the end is he?

Lucheng still chose neutrality at this time and was relatively lenient towards people entering and exiting. However, if Chen Hai wanted to gather more information on his own, he also needed to fabricate a relatively reliable identity and contact Lucheng's business travelers.

Although Lucheng still remains neutral at this time, its combat readiness has been greatly enhanced compared to before.

The bearded man is named Miao Xiong, the white-faced young man is named He Chengzhang, and the peacemaker young man is named He Dechang. They are all from Changle City in the west of Pinglu Oasis. They are low-level military attachés in Changle City and were ordered to escort the caravan from the main palace of Changle City. Hexi was also trapped in Lucheng at this time, unable to advance or retreat.

Chen Hai didn't mind others misunderstanding that he was a treasure hunter, but at this time he was dressed in a short-sleeved shirt with wet clinging to his body. He spread his hands and signaled that he would come ashore half-naked to find some treasure at the bottom of the lake. There is no place to hide.

At this time, Lucheng did not exclude the children of Yanzhou from entering and leaving. Chen Hai and the city guards paid a tax. After entering the city, they separated from Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang, saying that they were going to find a place to live by themselves.

In an alley in the west of the city, I knocked on the door of a courtyard, only to see Qi Hanjiang opening the door and welcoming Chen Hai in.

Of course, in the eyes of the three young men, although Chen Hai was only at the late stage of Tongxuan Realm, it was not surprising that anyone who ran out these days would have several extraordinary water-repelling talismans in his hands.

In addition to the developed business and travel industry, Lucheng's handicraft industry closely related to business travel is also extremely developed - this is the second important factor that Chen Hai values in Lucheng. The developed handicraft industry means that Lucheng has a large number of skilled craftsmen and craftsmen, and also has many handicraft industries. Workshops and workshops.

After Emperor Yitian's Western Expedition, the Western Qiang Kingdom was re-established, but the Ye family was unable to reach Lucheng, and no family had exclusive control of Lucheng.

After Emperor Yitian's Western Expedition, the Western Qiang Kingdom was re-established, but the Ye family was unable to reach Lucheng, and no family had exclusive control of Lucheng.

The number of residents in Lucheng alone is as high as 70,000 or 80,000, which is much higher than that of cities mainly engaged in animal husbandry and agriculture.

Drinking wine and admiring the beautiful moonlight in Lukai Gorge, in the early morning, Miao and He packed their bags and returned to Lucheng. He Dechang also invited Chen Hai to go with them to Lucheng; Chen Hai did not refuse and walked down Lukai Gorge. , and saw that the old, thin black horse he had left at the foot of the mountain when he was climbing was still tied to the poplar tree by the pool.

"We are all on a journey to the end of the world, and we are destined to meet each other. Brother He, how can you have such thoughts?" The bearded man scolded his companions unhappily.

Chen Hai just smiled in his heart and slowly dived to the bottom of the lake close to the rugged lake shore. But just diving into the bottom of the lake was not enough. If there really was a quenched gold placer mine at the bottom of the lake, it would inevitably settle under extremely deep sand and mud.

At this time, Chen Hai used all his true energy and mana, and bursts of light golden divine energy came out of his body. His body was shaped like a light golden shuttle, and he burrowed into the mud of the lake.

When Chen Hai emerged from the water, it was already dark, but the three young men were still lighting a bonfire by the lake and drinking wine on the ground.

It is easy to think of him as diving into the bottom of the lake to find treasures - many mystical and martial arts practitioners often do this when they travel around the world. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Chen Hai has been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long.

At this time, there were five relatively important families in Lucheng, all of which had strong men in the Mingqiao Realm presiding over the situation. It was the alliance of these five families that controlled the military affairs, handicraft industry, and business and travel affairs in Lucheng; even the position of city lord was taken by turns among the five families. sit.

Qi Hanjiang was shocked when he saw Chen Hai's face twisting slightly for a while before returning to its original rough and unruly appearance.

At this time, Chen Hai used all his true energy and mana, and bursts of light golden divine energy came out of his body. His body was shaped like a light golden shuttle, and he burrowed into the mud of the lake.

"Oh." The bearded man frowned, not believing Chen Hai's words, and it showed directly on his face. His attitude suddenly became cold, as if he regretted inviting Chen Hai over for a drink.

This person thought he had lowered his voice, but he didn't expect that even if the wind and water surged here, Chen Hai could still hear the slight chirping of ants within a hundred feet. He smiled in his heart. The same rice feeds all kinds of people. The bearded man looks rude, but in the end is he? Although he has good intentions, the white-faced young man just wants others to encounter natural and man-made disasters so that he can benefit from them.

Chen Hai didn't mind others misunderstanding that he was a treasure hunter, but at this time he was dressed in a short-sleeved shirt with wet clinging to his body. He spread his hands and signaled that he would come ashore half-naked to find some treasure at the bottom of the lake. There is no place to hide.

Wu Meng, Qi Hanjiang, and Ge Tong did not hold general positions in the Jingjue Army, and did not have the heavy responsibility of commanding and running the army. Chen Hai wanted to recruit strong men to sneak into Lucheng to detect the situation and wait for opportunities. There was really no one like Wu Meng, and Qi Hanjiang and Ge Tong were more leisurely candidates.

In the past, Lucheng had a total of 2,000 guards affiliated with the City Lord's Mansion. Therefore, Lucheng was extremely wealthy. In addition to recruiting the city's brave soldiers as soldiers, it also recruited a large number of martial arts cultivators from the entire Pinglu Oasis as military attachés. The soldiers and armor are also very sophisticated, making the Lucheng City Guards a strong fighting force in the more than 40 cities of Pinglu Oasis.

He Chengzhang looked indifferent and hoped that when the Ye family and the Zhang family were fighting for the country, he could find an opportunity for personal prosperity.

At this time, Chen Hai used all his true energy and mana, and bursts of light golden divine energy came out of his body. His body was shaped like a light golden shuttle, and he burrowed into the mud of the lake.

Drinking wine and admiring the beautiful moonlight in Lukai Gorge, in the early morning, Miao and He packed their bags and returned to Lucheng. He Dechang also invited Chen Hai to go with them to Lucheng; Chen Hai did not refuse and walked down Lukai Gorge. , and saw that the old, thin black horse he had left at the foot of the mountain when he was climbing was still tied to the poplar tree by the pool.

The bearded man is named Miao Xiong, the white-faced young man is named He Chengzhang, and the peacemaker young man is named He Dechang. They are all from Changle City in the west of Pinglu Oasis. They are low-level military attachés in Changle City and were ordered to escort the caravan from the main palace of Changle City. Hexi was also trapped in Lucheng at this time, unable to advance or retreat.

The other young man was the peacemaker, and advised the white-faced young man to stop talking to the bearded man. After finally climbing to Lukai Gorge, they could not be in a bad mood for unrelated outsiders.

In the past, Lucheng had a total of 2,000 guards affiliated with the City Lord's Mansion. Therefore, Lucheng was extremely wealthy. In addition to recruiting the city's brave soldiers as soldiers, it also recruited a large number of martial arts cultivators from the entire Pinglu Oasis as military attachés. The soldiers and armor are also very sophisticated, making the Lucheng City Guards a strong fighting force in the more than 40 cities of Pinglu Oasis.

Even on issues such as Dong Ning's identity at this time and Ye's restoration of the country, Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang all have different opinions and positions.

Of course, the Lucheng Guards were ultimately in the hands of the children of the five Lucheng clans.

The position of Lord of Changle City has been in the hands of the He family since Emperor Yitian's Western Expedition. He Chengzhang and He Dechang should both be descendants of the He family. The He family did not clearly stand up and declare surrender to the rebels, nor did they expressly support the remnants of the Ye family. Like the several aristocratic families who jointly controlled Lucheng, they all remained neutral; therefore, Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang were not from Yanzhou. Chen Hai doesn't have much hostility.

Chen Hai just smiled in his heart and slowly dived to the bottom of the lake close to the rugged lake shore. But just diving into the bottom of the lake was not enough. If there really was a quenched gold placer mine at the bottom of the lake, it would inevitably settle under extremely deep sand and mud.

No one knows that Tianxuan Lake has existed for six or seven thousand years. How thick of sediment has accumulated in this lake? Chen Hai used the soil escape technique to squeeze into the sand and mud to a depth of nearly 400 meters. Although the gravel layer was thicker than It is getting denser and thicker, but it is still some distance away from the real lake bottom rock formation.

Although the area of Tianxuan Lake is much smaller than Juquan Ridge, it is still worthy of the Jingjue Guards Army sending troops to occupy it.

Chen Hai didn't mind others misunderstanding that he was a treasure hunter, but at this time he was dressed in a short-sleeved shirt with wet clinging to his body. He spread his hands and signaled that he would come ashore half-naked to find some treasure at the bottom of the lake. There is no place to hide.

"You don't mind, brother, can you come over and have a drink to warm yourself up?" The bearded man invited Chen Haidao.

There is nothing particularly mysterious about this method of soil escape. Almost everyone can practice the spiritual realm. However, compared to the methods of controlling wind and water, drilling into soil or even rock strata consumes a huge amount of real energy. There are many, and the movement is much louder. Fortunately, the lake is hundreds of meters deep, and the waves are turbulent. Others standing by the lake cannot detect the movement at the bottom of the lake.

At this time, Chen Hai took a closer look at the city walls and streets of Lucheng. He suspected that Lucheng had expanded its armaments during this period. The size of the city guards had more than doubled, and should be more than 4,000 at this time.

Chen Hai has been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long. It is easy to think of him as diving into the bottom of the lake to find treasures - many mystical and martial arts practitioners often do this when they travel around the world. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Chen Hai has been diving at the bottom of the lake for so long.

The white-faced young man was scolded by the bearded man. He looked a little confused and said angrily: "This guy is seeking death on his own. What will it do to me? I just made a joke, Miao Xiong, can you take it seriously?"

The number of residents in Lucheng alone is as high as 70,000 or 80,000, which is much higher than that of cities mainly engaged in animal husbandry and agriculture.

At this time, Lucheng did not exclude the children of Yanzhou from entering and leaving. Chen Hai and the city guards paid a tax. After entering the city, they separated from Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, and He Dechang, saying that they were going to find a place to live by themselves. In an alley in the west of the city, I knocked on the door of a courtyard, only to see Qi Hanjiang opening the door and welcoming Chen Hai in.

This person thought he had lowered his voice, but he didn't expect that even if the wind and water surged here, Chen Hai could still hear the slight chirping of ants within a hundred feet. He smiled in his heart. The same rice feeds all kinds of people. The bearded man looks rude, but in the end is he?

He Dechang also invited Chen Hai to go with them to Lucheng; Chen Hai did not refuse and walked down Lukai Gorge. , and saw that the old, thin black horse he had left at the foot of the mountain when he was climbing was still tied to the poplar tree by the pool.

"Is it true that you came here in person?"

"Thank you. Chen Lin in Mengcheng, Tianshui County has met many brothers." Chen Hai came over, bowed and introduced himself, and said, "Zhang Xiong suddenly started a war to seize the capital of the Ye family and drive away the daughter of the Dong family. At this time, I don’t know Dong’s attitude. I am afraid that Dong will arrest me as a spy, so I don’t dare to take the road back to Tianshui County from Hexi. I have been trapped in Jiaji, Heiqiu and other cities these days. I just came to Lucheng today. See Is there a caravan going to Hexi..."

The white-faced young man was scolded by the bearded man. He looked a little confused and said angrily: "This guy is seeking death on his own. What will it do to me? I just made a joke, Miao Xiong, can you take it seriously?"

Of course, in the eyes of the three young men, although Chen Hai was only at the late stage of Tongxuan Realm, it was not surprising that anyone who ran out these days would have several extraordinary water-repelling talismans in his hands.

In addition to the developed business and travel industry, Lucheng's handicraft industry closely related to business travel is also extremely developed - this is the second important factor that Chen Hai values in Lucheng. The developed handicraft industry means that Lucheng has a large number of skilled craftsmen and craftsmen, and also has many handicraft industries. Workshops and workshops.

Qi Hanjiang was shocked when he saw Chen Hai's face twisting slightly for a while before returning to its original rough and unruly appearance.

However, while sitting down to drink, Chen Hai could still feel that although Miao Xiong, He Chengzhang, He Dechang and others did not mind doing business with Hexi, and even fully expected that the trade routes interrupted by the rebellion and war could be opened soon, they had not forgotten it. The bloody war twenty years ago did not support Dong's excessive intervention in the affairs of Pinglu Oasis.

After Emperor Yitian's Western Expedition, the Western Qiang Kingdom was re-established, but the Ye family was unable to reach Lucheng, and no family had exclusive control of Lucheng.

Wu Meng, Qi Hanjiang, and Ge Tong did not hold general positions in the Jingjue Army, and did not have the heavy responsibility of commanding and running the army.

Although Lucheng still remains neutral at this time, its combat readiness has been greatly enhanced compared to before.

In the view of the weak-tempered He Dechang, since Dong Ning has married into the Western Qiang Kingdom, as the people of the Western Qiang Kingdom, they should recognize her identity as a young princess and support the Ye family's restoration of the country.
