10. The army marches into the mountains

After listening to Zhang Dongyun's question, Hui Tianyu's expression remained as usual.

"Senior, I have clearly learned that my master has treated me with great kindness, and I have never had any thoughts of betraying my master."

He said slowly: "This junior is indeed rebellious, but what is contrary is that he forgets the truth."

The old man in black who transformed into Zhang Dongyun did not speak, but looked at the other party with interest.

Hui Tianyu calmed down: "Wangzhen Guan usually bullies our sect a lot, especially in recent years, it has forced our disciples to worship Taoist incense.

I have long been determined to find another leader for our sect, but this time I mistakenly entered Chang'an City and offended the city lord and seniors, which was not intentional. However, the city lord and seniors are highly cultivated and have a generous heart, which makes juniors amazed."

As he spoke, he saluted the old man in black dressed as Zhang Dongyun.

"This junior makes a bold request to do something for Chang'an City. I hope to make a contribution so that I can ask the city lord and seniors to make the decision for our Hanshan Sect and escape the control of the Forgetfulness Guan."

Zhang Dongyun smiled faintly: "If you want to get rid of the concept of forgetfulness and find a new backer, you can just go to the Dongtang official. Why, we are both in Qinzhou Prefecture, so we can't compete with Shanhutang?"

"Administration in the Eastern Tang Dynasty was strict, official corruption was common, and exploitation became increasingly serious." Hui Tianyu sighed: "They might as well forget their true views."

Zhang Dongyun was unmoved: "The city lord is naturally tolerant, but how can he interfere with such trivial matters?

If you want to obey my orders, it may be more difficult than your allegiance to the Eastern Tang Dynasty."

Hui Tianyu was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that the old man in black in front of him would think that he was even more cruel than the rulers of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

But he quickly calmed down.

In the Eastern Tang Dynasty, there was indeed more than one powerful force that was equal to Wangzhen Guan.

But in the area at the southern foot of Longling, apart from the officialdom of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, there was the world of Wangzhen Guan.

Even if other forces want to intervene here, the distant water cannot relieve the close fire.

The Hanshan Sect will first be destroyed by the wrath of Wangzhen Guan.

Only this strange ancient city that suddenly appeared deep in Longling gave people a glimmer of hope.

The old man in black is indeed eccentric and moody.

But the city lord above him shouldn't be like this?

Hui Tianyu bowed his head respectfully:

"The juniors are young and have little knowledge. How can they say that they can guess what the seniors are thinking? I only hope that the seniors can give me a chance, and I will do my best."

Zhang Dongyun looked at the other party and suddenly smiled after a while:

"Very good, I like young people who are proactive, courageous and knowledgeable."

He came to the other party: "In that case, I will give you a chance to try."

"Please give me your instructions, senior!"

I was overjoyed when I returned to Tianyu, but I still kept my composure and did not get carried away.

Zhang Dongyun pretended to be an old man in black and said: "To live, food, clothing, housing and transportation are indispensable. You can put 'living' and 'traveling' first, but food and clothing cannot be lacking for a moment."

"That's what senior said." Hui Tianyu replied while guessing the other party's intention.

He, his fellow disciples, and some Shanhu Hall disciples have been locked up in the city for several days.

Everyone was tired and hungry, and they all relied on the warrior's physical strength to hold them together.

The old man in black clothes in front of him seems to have successfully abstained from grains, and is a person who eats wind and drinks dew and does not need food.

"I have some savings, so I will go out to the city to buy water and cloth." Hui Tianyu said tentatively.

The old man in black gave him a sideways glance: "How long can your savings last for food and clothing for a thousand, ten thousand or even more people?"

Hui Tianyu was stunned: "Thousands of people?"

The old man in black said calmly: "It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish."

He looked at Hui Tianyu: "It's your business to buy as much cloth, water, and water as you want. My task for you is to purchase improved seeds."

"Good seed..." Hui Tianyu realized something.

"Seeds of grain, seedlings of fruits and vegetables, tree seeds and grass seeds of cotton, linen, and mulberry for weaving, silkworm seeds, fry in fish ponds, and young livestock seeds of pigs, cattle, and sheep..."

The old man in black smiled: "Everything you can think of can be counted."

After the initial shock in Hui Tianyu's heart, he became even more joyful and confident.

The other party's attitude clearly means that they are serious about taking root and developing here and will not leave in a short time.

This new backing is quite stable.

"Junior understands, senior, please rest assured, junior will do his best to collect it."

Hui Tianyu pondered: "I just don't know how much time I have, junior? If I have more time, I can get more quantity..."

"For a single category, the total number does not need to be too much, just a few." The old man in black shook his head: "The important thing is that the more varieties, the better, and the better the varieties, the better."

Hui Tianyu was a little surprised, but he said no more and immediately said: "Junior obeys the order. In this case, I will be back soon."

Zhang Dongyun waved his hand: "You only have one chance, seize it."

A group of dark clouds lifted it back to the sky and sent it out of the city gate.

Just judging from the power of the system's invincible city, what the other party said came from the bottom of his heart.

But if this person has other wrong ideas, Zhang Dongyun doesn't care.

Zhang Dongyun also didn't care whether he went back to Tianyu to do this errand by himself or whether his sect, the Hanshan Sect, would attack him in large numbers.

It should be said that he was eager for the other party to attack the city.

It would be even better if the Hanshan Sect moved reinforcements from Wangzhen Guan.

Of course, if this young man can get things done for him steadily, Zhang Dongyun will not hesitate to give him a chance.

Dark clouds will return to Tianyu and send them out of the city.

Hui Tianyu looked back at the city wall, took a deep breath, and his eyes became firmer.

He wandered all the way and left Baiyun Yuan.

Walking in the primeval jungle of Longling, the one-eyed young man was thinking about how to complete the task assigned by the old man in black as he hurried on.

Suddenly, someone's voice came from ahead.

Hui Tianyu was shocked and subconsciously hid it.

After the other party approached, the one-eyed young man discovered that there were people from Shanhutang and soldiers wearing armor.

The disciple of Shanhu Hall who was let go before attracted the senior officials of Shanhu Hall and the soldiers under General Xuanwu...

Hui Tianyu's brows suddenly wrinkled.

The people he met were just outposts of the large army, exploring the way and conducting reconnaissance.

Far behind, in the formerly quiet and deep Longling jungle, there was already a commotion.

A large number of soldiers were cutting down trees to pave roads and build bridges to cross rivers.

Further back, there are large and heavy vehicles waiting for the road to open so that they can enter the mountain together.

Next to the motorcade, a group of people stood.

"When I was hunting before, why didn't I find the treasure hidden in this remote place?"

One of the young men wearing armor patted the huge ballista next to him and said with a smile: "With this siege weapon, you don't have to worry. Uncle Gao, I'm lucky to have you with me this time."

A middle-aged general beside him looked serious: "If it is true as the young disciple said, we still cannot be careless."

As the middle-aged general spoke, he looked at the burly man next to him, the master of Shanhu Hall.

The other party lowered his head: "Yes, there may be a master of magic in that city."

The armored young man smiled and said: "Don't worry, if he is really a magic master who has cultivated the blood phoenix transformation, I, Qingling Jingyu, can restrain him. When the time comes, if thousands of arrows are fired at once, he will definitely die!"

The middle-aged general said: "The other party may have other masters, so you need to be careful, sir."

"Don't worry, Uncle Gao, I know." The young man said, "But for the elixir of flesh and bones that can revive the dead, it's worth taking some risks."

"It's a pity that my father is busy quelling the chaos, otherwise he would have taken action personally and nothing would have gone wrong."

While everyone was talking, the army slowly marched into the mountains.

After returning to Tianyu, he returned to Baiyun Yuan and returned to Chang'an City to seek an audience.

"Yes, you are interested."

After hearing Hui Tianyu's report about the large army entering the mountain, Zhang Dongyun replied calmly: "You don't need to ask any more about this matter, just concentrate on running your errands."

When I returned to Tianyu and heard this, I became more confident and resigned immediately.

In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun no longer looked calm just now, and his face was full of smiles that could not hide his excitement.

Suddenly there was a green lawn in the empty palace.

City Lord Zhang rushed forward, knelt down on the lawn and clenched his fists.

“Beautiful, well come!”
