In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun watched this scene quietly and did not stop it.
For the Lingxiao sect elder named Chu, if he does not change his original intention, then this may be the best ending for him.
Ren Yichao, who had stood still for a long time, finally came to his senses.
He stepped forward and silently gathered the other party's body.
Perhaps, the other party wanted him to cut off a human head to take credit.
But Ren Yichao ultimately did not make a move.
After leaving the snow-capped mountains, Ren Yichao felt as if he was in another world.
The Lingxiao faction that resists is basically bound to die.
As the general manager of the Tang Dynasty, Yunmo personally went out to attack the land of Qi.
The candidate for the general manager of Qi has not yet been decided, and the Lingxiao sect has come from the land of the old Tang Dynasty. Yunmo's move is not considered to be out of bounds at the moment.
In the end, Ning Heng, the current leader of the Lingxiao sect, was killed by Yunmo himself.
The Lingxiao Sect will not become history.
In Chang'an City, they still have a line of inheritance.
But the Lingxiao sect that fought to the death against the Eastern Tang Dynasty no longer exists.
When Ren Yichao came back from the North, his colleagues in Chang'an all looked at him with complicated expressions.
In the end, no one spoke.
Ren Yichao seemed to be a different person.
He is still calm and capable, but compared to before, he has become taciturn.
At the same time, he is ruthless and ruthless.
The current disciple of the Lingxiao Sect with the highest cultivation level is no more than any super sixth level warrior.
But they put aside their burdens and worries and developed rapidly in Chang'an City, making other sects and aristocratic families dare not look down upon them.
Zhang Dongyun looked at all this with a calm expression, and then stopped paying attention.
His vision swept the entire coverage of the Invincible City system.
Soon, he found another person who completely changed.
On top of Tingshan Mountain, the academy has been rebuilt.
Trees have been replanted on the mountain, but they are still a bit sparse at the moment.
But with Tingshan Academy re-establishing its roots here, I hope this place will soon regain its old appearance.
Zhang Dongyun's eyes fell on a classroom in the academy.
In the lecture hall, a young man was teaching a group of students of similar age to him.
After class, everyone bowed respectfully to their peers and teachers before saying goodbye and leaving.
The young man packed up his textbooks and finally left.
When other teachers saw him, they sighed with emotion: "Chang'an is going to hold the second talent selection ceremony, isn't Brother Li going to attend?"
The young man shook his head slightly: "My knowledge is not solid enough, so I won't join in the fun this time. I'll talk about it next time."
"There are too many monks and too little rice. If I go late, there may not be room for you." The other party persuaded me kindly.
The young man smiled: "Then it would be good for me to stay and continue to teach students."
The other party expressed regret: "In the past, your father was dissatisfied with the tyranny of the Eastern Tang Dynasty and refused to serve as an official in the court, so that he could not realize his ambitions.
Now we have finally replaced the one who holds the throne in Chang'an City, but unfortunately my father is no longer here. If you don't seize the opportunity, I'm afraid my father will also feel regretful."
That young man was none other than Li Jun, the son of Li Zhibin, the former headmaster of Tingshan Academy.
In order to save him, Li Zhibin took the risk to Chang'an to obtain the Reincarnation Pill.
As a result, the news leaked, causing the Eastern Tang Dynasty to attack Tingshan.
In the end, Tingshan Academy was destroyed, and teachers and students suffered heavy casualties.
Li Zhibin himself broke up the family for everyone, and thus became one with Tingshan.
When Li Jun heard the other party mention his father, he shook his head slightly: "I don't want to embarrass my father, so my wish is fulfilled."
"Hey, it's such a pity that Dean Wan is one of the chief examiners now." The other party was still filled with regret.
Li Jun frowned: "The dean is actually a person who practices favoritism and malpractice?"
The man waved his hands repeatedly: "Where did you say you went? What I mean is that Dean Wan is in charge of the examination, and there will be no malpractice for personal gain. You take the examination based on your true ability, and your performance is different from that of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
Like that?"
Li Jun said: "The selection ceremony is to select talents and appoint them. I think it is difficult for me to hold a big position because of my limited talent and limited knowledge."
In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun watched this scene with great interest.
As far as he knew, Li Jun used to be young and impulsive.
He was seriously injured in the first place because he was impulsive and curious, broke into a secret conversation, and was silenced. He almost died on the spot.
In a sense, his life was bought by his father Li Zhibin.
Li Jun's current behavior is obviously very different from before, and he is much calmer.
It's not that he has become shy and inferior because of this, he just has more self-respect and self-reflection.
In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun smiled.
If the other party doesn't want to participate in the talent selection ceremony, of course no one will force him or beg him to go.
However, just seeing that this kid is now calm and capable, and his cultivation strength has also improved from the fourth to the fifth realm of Confucianism. When he has the confidence to participate in the talent selection ceremony in the future, I believe Wan Li, Xu Xingzhi and others will not miss it.
.
Zhang Dongyun smiled lightly and looked away from Tingshan Academy again.
The others were not moving in the Daming Palace and had seen all kinds of living beings inside and outside Chang'an.
After sweeping through everything, Zhang Dongyun disappeared in the Daming Palace.
He walked out of the coverage of the Invincible City system, and the real person walked on the land of Eastern Xinjiang outside the coverage of the system.
Overall, there is no obvious difference between the inside and outside.
The Tang Dynasty, the Chu Dynasty, and the Zhou Dynasty were all on the right track because they took a long time to acquire.
Things like Bifeng Gate in Qingyue County happen everywhere and it is not accidental.
But overall, it is a very small number of incidents.
Once something happens, the local people in charge will deal with it as soon as possible before it reaches the ears of Chang'an.
The atmosphere in Guliang is slightly less popular, but it is also gradually moving closer to Chang'an.
Because Qi, Jin, and Chen were just acquired, there is still a little chaos at the moment.
However, overall, everyone yearns for Chang'an and keeps moving closer to Chang'an.
The rules and decrees of Chang'an are unimpeded everywhere.
On the whole, everyone showed a wild but positive and uplifting demeanor.
Seeing this, Zhang Dongyun nodded with satisfaction.
He made a special trip to various seaports.
Among the seven kingdoms of Eastern Xinjiang, the Eastern Tang Dynasty was located in the center of the hinterland of Eastern Xinjiang and had no land near the sea.
The remaining six countries are located in all directions, all adjacent to the deserted sea and overlooking the ocean.
The six dynasties all had very developed maritime trade and shipbuilding technology.
For example, the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Southern Chen Dynasty, one was located in the northwest of Eastern Xinjiang, and the other was located in the southeast of Eastern Xinjiang.
The two sides are geographically far apart, with the Eastern Tang Dynasty in between.
To bypass the Eastern Tang Dynasty, we must also take the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, or the Southern Liang Dynasty or the Western Chu Dynasty.
The two sides started trade by bypassing the Southern Liang and Western Chu, or bypassing the Northern Qi and Eastern Jin Dynasties and taking the sea route, which resulted in huge cost savings.
Other dynasties that are geographically far apart will basically adopt this method.
The Northern Qi Dynasty is located in the North Sea. When the weather is too cold, there will be a large number of ambushes to block the sailing. In comparison, there is not that much need for sea transportation.
But the other five countries are basically major shipping companies.
Therefore, there are a large number of experts in building ship frames.
However, there is currently a lack of routes and ships from Eastern Xinjiang across the deserted sea to Middle-earth.
On the one hand, the distance is too far, and what's even worse is that there are many harsh and dangerous situations on the desert sea.
When a fleet passes by, it often ends up being buried in the belly of the fish.
In fact, the level of young monk Huiming was basically the lower limit of a person's ability to cross the wilderness alone.
His knowledge and inheritance are exquisite and his strength is so strong that he can cross the deserted sea in the seventh realm.
Otherwise, if a storm comes over at sea, ordinary practitioners in the seventh realm will easily be buried under the sea.
Young monk Yongse was brought to Eastern Xinjiang by his master Faning.
This has caused objective obstacles to mutual exchanges between China and Eastern Xinjiang.
But now, all the elite shipbuilding craftsmen and experienced ship builders from various countries have been concentrated in Chang'an in the South China Sea area.
Mr. Wu Yun issued an order to everyone to work together to improve the technology and strive to build a new type of ship that can withstand the wind and waves of the wild sea as soon as possible.
Chen Yu also came here once to poach people.
As a result, he really found a group of talents.
Of course, Manager Chen of Tiangong Palace is extremely open-minded and will never borrow money without repaying it.
The boatmen who were poached by him seemed more like they were going to the Tiangong Hall of Chang'an City for further studies.
Then, they were all released one after another.
In Chen Yu's words, their industry requires constant hands-on experimentation.
Under his care, these shipwrights gradually began to change like the craftsmen in the arsenal.
The name of Mohist practice began to become famous all over the world.
City Lord Zhang looked at all this and nodded with satisfaction.
If we continue to expand the Invincible City all the way to the west, sooner or later we will be able to expand the Central Earth as well.
By then, the barren sea that stands in the way between the two places will naturally no longer be an obstacle to Zhang Dongyun's invincible city system.
Even an ordinary mortal can freely travel between China and Eastern Xinjiang.
However, before that, Zhang Dongyun was determined to hammer a nail and set up camp on the other side of China.
In this way, he will have a foothold, which can make it easier to find out information about the Middle-earth, attract talents from the Middle-earth, and let the men on the other side who are willing to defect to the elders have one less thing to worry about.
Currently, City Lord Zhang lacks accurate information on the distance between the two landmasses of Central and Eastern Xinjiang, so it is difficult for him to judge whether the next eighth expansion will reach Central Earth in the west.
Now let’s take precautions and prepare some conventional measures.
When the time comes, unconventional means can even surprise the people on the opposite side of the Middle Earth...
"One two...one two...one two..."
Under Yangguan, in the shipyard on the seaside, a large number of craftsmen worked together to gradually fix the keel of a ship.
Zhang Dongyun nodded with satisfaction, and then left the land of Liang and returned north.
As soon as he set foot within the limits of Invincible City, he returned to the Daming Palace in an instant.
Sitting in the palace, Zhang Dongyun put his hands together in front of him, with his ring finger and little finger interlocked, and the tips of his middle finger, index finger and thumb facing each other.
He turned his gaze to the west.
Not to mention that Master Kukai in the South China Sea has been dealt with, the shipyard is now in full swing.
It is also time to deal with some of the remnants of the Seven Kingdoms on the western sea.
Hu Ming rushed to the West Sea and led Tianxian Palace's capable personnel to operate it, and gradually launched a large-scale intelligence network.
With the existence of this net, Zhuo Zui, Cao Ranran, Li Jie and others were gradually able to capture the traces of the escape masters of the Western Zhou and Western Chu.
