The spring scenery in April is charming and the scenery is pleasant. On the broad official road leading to Yuezhou, a carriage and several good horses are slowly moving forward...
From Tiannan to Yuezhou, the distance in between is the shortest. You can enter Yuezhou in three or four days, and then walk all the way west along the official road. You can reach Qinzhou, Huzhou and Yuezhou in about ten days.
The junction of the three states.
This group of people is Feng Jueyu and others who came out from Tiannan. They have been walking for more than ten days since they came out. Anyway, their mission this time is to discuss business and train elite troops. They will not be able to return to Tiannan in the short term, so Feng Jueyu and others have been away for more than ten days since they came out.
Jueyu didn't ask for a foot trip. He traveled all the way to see the mountains and rivers, and arrived at Qinghouzhuang two days later than expected.
There are many merchants on the official road, and you can often see large and small carriages carrying boxes passing by under the banner of a certain escort agency. These scenes have only been seen in TV movies before, but this is the first time that they have appeared in real life.
It actually made Feng Jueyu particularly curious.
I heard that the escorts and escorts all had unique eyesight. Feng Jueyu realized this deeply now. Although the Thirteen Guards of Yanling on his side were dressed very normally, they were silent and had a gloomy and cold expression.
It is better to keep passers-by at a distance, especially those escorts who have been escorting on official roads and small roads for many years. When they see it, they will nod and bow to get out of the way. This is surprisingly respectful.
The eyesight is by no means ordinary...
There was still about a day's journey from Qinghou Village. Feng Jueyu was in a good mood. He got out of the carriage and rode on the snow-trodden horse given to him by Dao Xingkong...
With a tall horse and a sunny and handsome young man, Feng Jueyu's temperament suddenly stood out, making the eyes of passers-by who met head-on sometimes brighten up, and they all praised...
Wang Tong was driving the carriage, dressed like a bad coachman, with the brim of his felt hat held low, and he reluctantly slapped a whip after a long while...
"We have one day to go to Qinghou Village. Is it empty now?" Feng Jueyu asked aloud, but he had a certain purpose.
When he came out, Gongyang Yu also followed him. It was not convenient for him to show up, so he followed slowly. One night, he learned that Feng Jueyu's first stop on his trip was Qinghouzhuang, so he rushed there alone.
Wang Tong put his iron-rod-thick fingers on the brim of his hat and replied: "Qinghou Village is one of the main halls of Tiannan Green Forest. It is the residence of the old man. Naturally, it will not be empty. There are at least hundreds of people in the village.
There are still people living there, as well as the thirty Black Tungsten Guards."
Mentioning Green Forest, Feng Jueyu became interested and couldn't help but ask: "Wang Tong, when the old man was young, the Green Forest hero was in charge of hundreds of thousands of miles of territory in the south of the world. He should be very famous."
Wang Tong put the whip on his shoulder and said with great pride: "Of course, the master passed the test and controlled the Tiannan Green Forest in just ten years. How can ordinary people compare? However, the process is equally difficult, and all regions of the Tiannan Green Forest are under control.
There are so many places to visit, it’s not easy to cover everything…”
"Oh? According to you, Tiannan Green Forest is not united?"
Wang Tongdao: "Yes, just like the current Tiannan Green Forest, the master holds the Qinghou Fire Sign. Although he can command the green forest masters in the world, the only ones who are truly obedient are the Eastern Green Forest. As for the west, it will be difficult."
"This green forest is also divided into east and west?" Feng Jueyu couldn't help but wonder. It turns out that the old man is quite arrogant. Even the emperor is afraid of him. Isn't it just because the green forest in the south of the world is under the control of the old man? It turns out that the old man is now
Although it is beautiful on the surface, the power in its hands has been divided into two parts.
Hearing what Wang Tong said, Xilvlin seemed to be still unwilling to accept it...
Wang Tongdao: "Young master, I don't know. The green forest in Tiannan is divided into two parts: east and west. It originated during the founding of Zhou Renguang. Even before that, the green forest in Tiannan was very loyal to the master. But since the tyranny of the previous king,
The old man pities the people of the world, so he came up with the idea of helping the emperor change the dynasty. At the beginning, Zhou Renguang was weak and could only rely on his master. The master also tried his best to assist. However, there have been disputes within Green Forest since then. "
"When my master became the leader of the Tiannan Green Forest Alliance, he relied on an iron sword and a pair of fists. At the beginning, my opponent was Huangfu Fanyi of Wuyun Mountain, who was very prestigious in the west. Before my master, King Qin, there was Qinghou
With the fire letter in hand, he didn't dare to say anything. But when the master became the Seven Kings of Tiannan, Huangfu Fanyi was very dissatisfied and took the opportunity to incite Xilulin to stand against the master."
Wang Tong sighed: "Of course, with the last words of the old alliance leader, Huangfu Fanyi also understood that Tiannan Green Forest could not be dispersed, so Huangfu Fanyi neither helped Zhou Renguang win the world nor explicitly broke with Dong Green Forest. Over time, it formed
To end the current impasse..."
"Nowadays, the East and West Green Forest appear to be the same family, but in fact, most of the West have become Huangfu Fanyi's subordinates. The master was detained in the Tiannan Imperial Capital because of King Qin's meritorious service, so he can only guard the East Green Forest and endure it. Otherwise, although Wuyun Mountain belongs to the Huangfu clan, the Master
How can it be so difficult to get a few pieces of black dock armor? Can't we just say something?"
After Feng Jueyu listened quietly, he suddenly realized that no wonder the old man repeatedly told him to be cautious when contacting Wuyun Mountain this time. It turned out that there was such a past...
Wang Tong had followed Shangguan Lingyun for decades and knew quite a lot about Green Lin's secrets. He didn't hide it and told everything so that Feng Jueyu could understand how difficult this trip was.
"So this business is equal to the negotiation between East Green Forest and West Green Forest?" Feng Jueyu said.
Wang Tong nodded unequivocally: "That's right. The Huangfu family in Wuyun Mountain is good at forging armor and iron weapons. They are an indispensable family in the Green Forest. There are many weapons in the Green Forest in the east and west from the Huangfu family.
, and the amount of tungsten steel mined every year is not large, and the amount needed to make armor is even more unimaginable. The master took the Qinghou Fire Letter and forced Huangfu Fan for eight and eight years before he got it from him.
It’s already very difficult to produce thirty sets.”
"Huangfu Fanyi has always been dissatisfied with his master, so he often raises prices out of anger. Eight years ago, the master came to Wuyun Villa to discuss business in person. This time..." He raised his head and glanced at Feng Jueyu: "I'm afraid it will be even harder..."
Feng Jueyu understood what it means, and the old man was old and didn't want to have any more disputes, so he gave this task to himself.
The extent to which the Shangguan family's private army can ultimately reach depends on the background of the elite soldiers and warriors it has trained, as well as the equipment.
Thirty black tungsten armored guards are indeed not to be underestimated, but they are far from being on an equal footing with a martial arts family like Tianjian Mountain. Therefore, the only way is to improve the strength of the warriors while trying to prepare all the equipment as much as possible.
And it is exquisite, so that the lintel of the door can be illuminated...
Hearing this, Feng Jueyu had a doubt: "Huh? Isn't it right? If Huangfu Fan is very resistant to King Qin, Zhou Renguang will definitely have a grudge against Xilulin. Tiannan has been a country for many years, why haven't you heard that he sent someone
What about the purge?"
The great one of the country, the lord of a dynasty...
As a king, the last thing he wants is for someone to disobey him, no matter which king he is in. Feng Jueyu does not believe that Zhou Renguang is stupid enough to let Xilulin dominate the west of Tiannan.
Wang Tongdao: "Why not? If the master hadn't kept stopping us, the Mu family's army would have wiped out Tiannanxi."
"Ah~" Feng Jueyu let out a long sigh and realized it completely. It seemed that the old man's constant wariness of Zhou Renguang was not unfounded.
Even if the old man protects Xilulin, Zhou Renguang will definitely not be able to let go. Over time, it will definitely become a serious problem...
After thinking about it, Killer Feng felt that this time was extremely stressful. From Wang Tong's tone, it could be heard that Huangfu Fanyi was still a narrow-minded guy. This business negotiation might not be easy.
The carriage traveled for another day and finally arrived at Qinghou Village...
When he came out, Feng Jueyu was full of expectations for the main entrance of Tiannan's green forest. When he actually arrived at the foot of Qinghou Village, Feng Jueyu was not disappointed.
Wakabayashi's manor rises from the foot of the mountain. Dozens of bluestone steps extend straight to the mountainside. The width of the stone steps reaches a terrifying ten meters. There are eighty-eight steps in total, which highlights a unique atmosphere.
On both sides of the bluestone stairs are two winding roads that lead to the mountainside, specifically for carriages to go up the mountain.
Wang Tong drove his car up the mountain from the left, while Feng Jueyu rode up the mountain from the main gate with thirteen assassins on horseback.
When you arrive in front of the mountain gate, you will see an open bluestone square with four tall white jade pillars standing majestically, each carved with the four sacred beasts of Qinglong, Suzaku, White Tiger and Xuanwu, full of domineering...
Passing through the square, there is another stone staircase with several steps. Along the road, there are beautiful trees and forests, and hundreds of flowers are blooming. The scenery is extremely pleasant...
After climbing dozens more steps, we finally reached the mountainside, which is the main entrance of Qinghou Village. The large red lacquer door is open during the day, and two huge stone lions guard the left and right sides in front of the door, with angry eyebrows and evil aura...
…
Above the main entrance, there is a huge plaque with the three words "Qinghou Village" in shining gold inlaid with vigorous brushwork and full momentum.
The overall layout of Qinghou Village is grand and majestic, giving you a sense of supremacy. Being immersed in it makes people feel inexplicably powerful and passionate.
Although Feng Jueyu was well-informed, he couldn't help but admire Qinghou Village...
There were several servants in charge of cleaning the manor in front of the door. They were shocked when they saw Feng Jueyu and his party waiting. It wasn't until Wang Tong got off his horse and saw his appearance clearly that someone trotted into the door and brought him out.
The old man in green robe wearing a small hat came out.
"Mr. Wang, you are finally here..."
There was inexplicable excitement in the old man's eyes, as if he hadn't seen him for a long time, and he ran over in three or two steps.
Wang Tong was also very excited and walked up the steps: "Manager Ma, how good have you been lately..."
The two were obviously old acquaintances, and they were particularly cordial when they met. After a few words of greeting, Wang Tong immediately turned around and introduced: "Manager Ma, this is my uncle, Mr. Feng."
