After a few glasses of wine, the two sides continued to argue.
Regarding Lingbo City, Chu Yang and Lin Shutong wanted more sovereignty, but Ding Jilin insisted to death. Lingbo City was his own. At most, he could only give the Chu Dynasty the "right to use". In order to get this right to use
, the Chu Dynasty must strengthen the supply of supplies to the Sky Tower to ensure the total strength and combat effectiveness of the Sky Tower.
In addition, the Great Chu Dynasty must allocate a batch of supplies to regularly supply the water tribes on the first floor of Lingbo City. As for whether Siyu needs this batch of supplies, it is another matter. They must come down first to save the other party from regrets later.
For a moment, both sides were furious. Chu Yang was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, feeling that Ding Jilin wanted too much. Ding Jilin slapped the table several times and almost called Chu Yang an "old man". ??
Shi Lan drank cup after cup of wine, just smiling and not saying much during the whole process. He left these matters to Ding Jilin. He was good at it. On the contrary, he, the Lord of the Sky Tower, was really interested in these nonsense.
Powerless.
It was not until the afternoon that the agreement was finally reached, and both parties signed and pledged their signatures on a piece of paper.
…
Afternoon.
After eating, Ding Jilin left Yandi City and headed to Lingbo City.
The fastest way to get to Lingbo City is to teleport to Shanhaiguan and set off. Fortunately, Qiuhua is now a Holy Meteor-level mount, and has the speed of water movement, so he has already arrived at Lingbo Lake in ten minutes.
When Ding Jilin stepped into Lingbo Lake again, the map here had undergone slight changes. The total area of Lingbo Lake had not changed, but the topography of the lake had become much narrower. The closest distance between Lingbo City and the lake shore was only four or five meters.
It's not too far away.
"Crack!"
He jumped up and walked on the water waves to Lingbo City. The moment he arrived at Lingbo City, he stepped into the water. Suddenly, one layer below the water, the water god warriors standing on the covered bridge had one arm across their chests.
Salute "Meet the Master!"
"No gift."
Ding Jilin raised his hand gently, signaling to the Water God soldiers not to be formal.
"Owner."
A wisp of ripples appeared in front, transforming into Silk Rain. She smiled lightly and said, "It seems that the master has already arranged the future of Lingbo City, right?"
"Yes."
Ding Jilin briefly explained the decision of Yandi City.
Siyu was silent and didn't make a sound.
Ding Jilin said, "Actually, I am not willing to hand over Lingbo City to the Great Chu Dynasty, but there is no other way. Today's Yunze Continent belongs to the Great Chu Dynasty, and we simply cannot revive the Water God Clan with the power in our hands.
Coupled with the prying eyes of the three northern tribes, the future of Lingbo City must rely on the human race."
"Um!"
Siyu nodded heavily and said, "I heard them say that the master is a famous general of the human race, and the emperor must have his own intentions when he chose the master as his successor. So, Siyu, I will listen to you in everything. By the way, there is one more thing.
Matters need to be decided by the master."
"oh?
"
Ding Jilin smiled and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Master, please follow me."
Siyu twisted her body and headed into the distance like a mermaid, and Ding Jilin was walking in the water. The heart of the water god was buzzing, so that his swimming speed in the water was not inferior to that of Siyu. The two of them were like two people.
The stream of light in the water rushed toward the depths of Lingbo Lake.
Soon after, Siyu stopped.
Ahead, there was a noise, and in the depths of the lake, strands of blue silk threads intertwined with each other, forming a dragnet. In the dragnet, units of the Deep Marine Corps, toothed rays, demonized saury, and some were imprisoned.
There are countless transformed shrimps, soldiers and crabs.
"I go……"
Ding Jilin naturally knew these monsters. They were all minions brought by the Ocean Lord. He frowned and said, "Siyu, how did you catch them?"
"It's easy to say."
Siyu smiled slightly, "After my master ordered me to cut off the deep-sea tunnel, these sea creatures were cut off from returning to the East China Sea. Although they have cultivated into human form, they are still marine creatures and cannot walk on land for a long time, let alone pass through.
It’s a long journey back thousands of miles, so I can only stay in Lingbo City to cause trouble.”
She raised her lips lightly, "Of course I won't allow them to wander around in Lingbo Lake, so I summoned the dragnet in the lake to imprison them, and asked the master to decide whether to kill them all or use them for other purposes?"
"ah?!"
A group of tooth rays, demonized saury, etc. were stunned. The next second they all knelt on the ground, wailing all over the field, "We know we were wrong, that kid... From now on, we are willing to treat you as our master, as long as you follow your lead!"
I just ask you to accept us. From now on, we will make a clean break with the Ocean Lord and serve you loyally!"
"Is it true?"
Ding Jilin narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Siyu, it's up to you."
"It's better to kill them all."
Siyuliwu smiled slightly and said, "The reason why these people surrendered to their master is only because of the situation. They will never really be willing to surrender to their master. It is useless to keep them. They just kill them all and serve as nutrients for our Lingbo Lake Aquatic Tribe."
.”
"Ah~~~"
A group of tooth rays, crabs, etc. made sounds like killing pigs, and all knelt down on the ground, "Heaven and earth can teach us, our loyalty to the new master can be demonstrated by the sun and the moon... New master, please..."
"snort!"
Ding Jilin smiled faintly, looked at Siyu, and said, "Siyu, if you don't care, I think they are sincerely surrendering and really want to stay in Lingbo Lake to practice. Otherwise... just for my sake."
, let them live?"
"good!"
Siyu said cheerfully, "Since the master personally intercedes for them, I will naturally not kill them again!"
As she spoke, she looked at a group of deep-sea units and said, "For the sake of my master's intercession for you, I will spare your lives. From now on, you must stay in Lingbo Lake to practice without any second thoughts. When Lingbo City faces a crisis,
, you must take up arms and fight for Lingbo City. If you are willing, I will let you go. What do you mean?"
Suddenly, a group of deep-sea units knelt down and kowtowed.
Siyu gently flicked her sleeves, and the dragnet dispersed into ripples in the lake. She lowered her voice and smiled and said to Ding Jilin, "Master, after being so frightened by us, these deep-sea creatures will definitely join us in Lingbo Lake.
"
"Um."
Ding Jilin nodded, "Well done, let's keep up the good work. The Chu Dynasty may send officials and craftsmen over soon to repair Lingbo City and build bridges. There may be many places for you to contact, so you have to be patient."
Temperament, don't feel impatient."
"As it should be."
Siyu pursed her red lips and said, "But... Master, there is no need to build bridges. When the emperor built Lingbo City, he built water bridges that could accommodate giant vehicles. Now these bridges are dormant.
At the bottom of the lake, you need to use the emperor’s divine power to reawaken them, the master can try.”
"oh?" .??.
The next second, a golden line about five miles long appeared in Ding Jilin's map interface, along with Lingbo City and the southern lakeshore. However, it was not visible on the water and needed to be triggered and activated.
So, he swept away, and when he was approaching the Hudi Bridge, Ding Jilin pulled out the Star Meteor Sword and pointed forward!
Divine Sword Regrets the Sea!
"Peng!"
A wisp of the Divine Sword fell from the sky, landed heavily in the water, and stirred up countless waves. Suddenly, wisps of the divine power of Water God Lin Chen entered the water, triggering a mechanism, and a "buzzing" sound came from the bottom of the lake, like
Like a machine turning, in the blink of an eye a hundred-meter-long bridge rose from the bottom of the lake, with moss and water plants rising to the surface.
One Divine Sword Regrets the Sea, forcibly connects a hundred-meter-long bridge. If you want to activate all the bridges, you will need dozens of Divine Sword Regrets the Sea. There is no other way, just take your time.
…
evening.
Ding Jilin worked tirelessly and finally raised a whole bridge from the bottom of the water. In this way, one can go to Lingbo City from the flat land on the shore. The materials and vehicles of the Great Chu Dynasty can be sent to Lingbo City in an endless stream.
This move will save a lot of manpower and material resources. Otherwise, it would take a lot of time to build a bridge across the lake.
night.
The battle flag of the Chu Dynasty appeared in the south of Lingbo Lake, with troops and convoys coming in an endless stream. Where the flag was displayed, a big "Su" character was very conspicuous.
>
Ding Jilin and Si Yu stood on the bridge, frowning and looking into the distance. The people from the Chu Dynasty finally arrived.
Moreover, Chu Yang is indeed a scheming old fox. He did not send anyone to take over Lingbo City. The person he sent was actually Su Liang, the former Marshal of the Northern Expedition!
Su Liang and Ding Jilin have a good relationship, and they have even fought side by side with Paoze, so they sent officials to take over Lingbo City. Ding Jilin may be conflicted and a little unhappy, but if Su Liang is sent, then there will be no problem.
.
"Ding Jilin!"
Su Liang got off his horse and came with a group of generals. With a smile on his face, he said, "I didn't expect that we would meet again in this way."
"Yes, Su Shuai!"
"Don't call me Marshal Su anymore. The burden on my shoulders has been lifted. I am no longer Marshal."
Su Liang cupped his fists and raised his hands, saying, "Thanks to His Majesty's appreciation, Su Liang is officially promoted to the Northern Liang Jiedu Envoy. From now on, I will stay in Lingbo City for a long time, shouldering the important task of rebuilding Liangzhou... So, many things still need to be done."
Please take good care of me."
"No problem."
Ding Jilin said, "In other words, from now on, you, Su Shuai, have the final say in Liangzhou?"
"almost."
"That's fine."
Ding Jilin stepped aside and let Si Yu meet Su Liang, saying, "This is Si Yu, the half-god in charge of Lingbo City and Lingbo Lake. She leads an old water god's team to stay underwater in Lingbo City."
First floor, so if there is anything that needs to be contacted in the future, Siyu will contact you. Su Liang, since you have become the governor of Beiliang, you must remember to treat the water god in Lingbo Lake well.
A clan!”
"Yes, this is natural!"
Su Liang immediately clasped his fists and said, "See Sir Siyu!"
Siyu smiled slightly, looked at Ding Jilin, and asked, "Master, if this Lord Su Liang does something wrong, can I kill him?"
"ah?"
Ding Jilin was surprised.
Su Liang was also surprised. This question was so direct and presumptuous!
"Ahem..."
Ding Jilin said, "You can kill others at will, but not him. If you want to kill Su Liang, you have to ask me before I agree."
"Yes, I obey!"
…
Things in Lingbo City were very complicated. Ding Jilin kept wandering around until about eleven o'clock in the evening, and finally got a little tired.
"drop!"
A message came from Lin Xixi, "I went offline to eat and sleep. I have to get up early tomorrow morning. It's time to go to Shanghai to attend the annual ceremony."
"okay!"
Ding Jilin nodded happily. He was looking forward to the annual ceremony. The time to stand out has finally arrived!
