Chen Taizhong's courtyard is built in a valley and covers an area of more than 100 acres.
When he left half a year ago, there was basically nothing in the yard except a few rows of houses and a few roads. But now, the trees have been trimmed, corridors and rockeries have been erected, and a 20-year-old garden has been dug.
A small lake as big as an acre.
In the center of the small lake, there is an island the size of an acre, with a stone arch bridge on the shore leading to the island.
There are five pavilions on the island, connected by cloisters, and the banquet place is placed here.
When Chen Taizhong saw this layout, he liked it very much. When he practiced, he didn't care much about the venue, but he didn't object to practicing in places with beautiful scenery. In particular, he liked this garden style very much.
Although this courtyard is not as big as the one in Tingfeng Town, it is a pure courtyard, unlike Tingfeng Town where there are breeding farms, martial arts training grounds and other places.
The garden design is a bit rough, and there are no luxurious buildings. It is more of a natural artistic conception without a lot of deliberate carving, which is what he likes.
"The yard is well done," he nodded happily, turning to look at the four maids, "Which one of you did it?"
"Designed by Mu Shan," the three women pushed out a girl in light green clothes.
"Yeah," Chen Taizhong nodded, thinking that she was quite considerate. He had to look at her with the Celestial Eye Technique, but found that she was only an ordinary second-level spirit immortal, and there was still a long way to go before she was a third-level spirit immortal.
Then there was no need to waste the Chaos Primordial Qi. He made up his mind and looked at Li Xiaoliu again, only to be surprised to find that she was already at the peak of the third-level spirit fairy. And her aura was jumping up and down. She was about to be promoted to the next level.
the trend of.
It didn't take long for her to advance to the third level of spirit fairy, right? Chen Taizhong was a little puzzled and couldn't help but take a look at the little white pig on her shoulder.
Chunliang blinked at him. It was obvious that this guy knew the reason behind it.
"Please make arrangements. The dinner will be held at the island in the middle of the lake." Chen Taizhong waved his hand casually, "Chunliang, come with me."
When the little white pig heard this, he jumped up and jumped directly onto his shoulders, hugging his shoulders with four little hooves.
Chen Taizhong took it into a bamboo forest and asked with a smile, "Li Xiaoliu... what's going on?"
"Why are you asking so many questions?" Little Qilin's mouth was always like this, he didn't know how to respect others at all. The next moment, he asked hurriedly. "I heard that you went out this time and made a big show of yourself."
"No?" Chen Taizhong deliberately teased him. At the same time, he also wanted to know what everyone said about him - Chen's vanity has always been very strong. "What did they say about me?"
"It's said that you killed the demon cultivator, beat up the leader of the Dibeidao, and even killed you at the gate of the Zhenyi Sect." Little Qilin patted his shoulder with his hoof, "You are very powerful. You almost caught up with me."
Already."
There is no way that the news of these three sensational incidents will not reach Lan Xiang. They are serious about targeting Qian Huanyue's family, but it has not been transmitted yet - the transmission of news also needs a process.
"I didn't do it," Chen Taizhong was proud, but he still pretended to say, "Second Young Master Dong did it."
"Stop talking about it," Chunliang said with dissatisfaction, "You are obviously a loner without Chen Taizhong, so where did you get the second son? It's not like I don't know the means of your transformation."
Chen Taizhong also knew that he could not hide it, but he still wanted to ask, "What do others say?"
"Others say Dong Yiming is amazing, he has such a powerful brother," Chun Liang replied absently, and then tapped his shoulder with her little hoof, "Well... you still owe me a Jade Immortal corpse."
Speaking of this, his saliva couldn't help but flow down again.
"It's obviously just a thigh, right?" Chen Taizhong snorted dissatisfied, but he remembered that at that time, this guy only wanted to eat Yue Gufang's thigh.
"Thighs are just thighs," Chunliang said modestly, "Eat one thigh first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
"I don't have the body of Jade Immortal!" Chen Taizhong rolled his eyes at it very unhappily, and his tone was extremely harsh, "How can I keep my hand in fighting with Jade Immortal?"
"You're lying. You obviously only took the head of a demon cultivator back. Where's the rest? Where's the rest?" Chunliang knew this in detail. It roared in a low voice, "I'll help."
If you look after the house, you will definitely miss me, right?"
Khan, luckily he brought the body back. Chen Taizhong was secretly lucky, otherwise, he would have really failed to live up to the expectations of this foodie, "But... I really don't like to see you cannibalizing people."
"The demon cultivator is not a human being at all, he is a scumbag," Chunliang kept tapping his shoulder with a small hoof, and said with a hint of resentment, "I worked tirelessly to help you look after your house, but it breaks my heart that you don't even have a thigh.
Give me...don't even give me a thigh!"
"Hey, hey, stop making trouble. I'll give you a thigh, but you can't digest it, right?" Chen Taizhong didn't bother to tease it anymore, "Just an arm."
Chunliang raised her little hooves and was about to pretend to wipe her tears when she suddenly heard the last sentence and the liquid dripped down - not from her eyes, but from her mouth.
"Haha," he couldn't help but laugh, and then jumped to the ground with a sudden jump. He stood upright, jumping up and down on the ground with his two hind legs, and twisting his huge buttocks.
After jumping a few times, it turned around and said with a smile on its face, "I knew you had...bring it."
Seeing that he was so happy, Chen Taizhong felt very happy. He took an arm from his storage bag and handed it to him, warning him softly, "Find a place where no one is around to eat. Be careful that you can't stand it... It's best to eat it in two portions."
"Mother-in-law," Chun Liang rolled her eyes at him and hugged her arms with her two small front hooves. The next moment, she turned into a white line and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Tsk," Chen Taizhong shook his head, too lazy to pay attention to this guy, and walked towards the small lake.
It was not yet dark, and the people attending the banquet were gradually arriving. Qiao Rennu and Yan Xiaomeng arrived a little later. They had been out for so long this time, and they had to freshen up and dress up when they came back. Naturally, they would not have arrived early.
Five lighting beads have been hung on the five pavilions on the island in the center of the lake, illuminating everything around them. Even the green lotus and duckweed on the lake are clearly illuminated.
Chen Taizhong did not go to the big pavilion in the center, but monopolized a small pavilion on the side. In essence, he was not a person who liked the excitement, so it was fine to just sit on the sidelines.
Chairman Mao warmly invited him several times, but he refused to go to the pavilion, and Chairman Mao stopped trying to persuade him.
Others were still interested in coming over to get close to him, but when they saw that he looked like he was repelling him thousands of miles away, and when Yan Xiaomeng and Qiao Rennv didn't even come close to him, they gave up their thoughts.
After the food and drinks were served, everyone ate and drank for a while, and then talked about the influence of Dongshang Ren and Lan Xiang's trip.
Even Chunliang, the housekeeper, knew what Chen Taizhong did. How could other Lan Xiang disciples not know about it? Everyone felt proud of him.
However, there are some details that everyone still wants to know - it is more enjoyable to listen to rumors than to listen to the accounts of those involved.
There were some details that were passed down through rumors, and the two women made corrections or additions, but what everyone was most concerned about was of course the question - who is the Second Young Master Dong, and what is his relationship with the Master Dong.
Of course, it was impossible for Qiao Rennu and Yan Xiaomeng to tell the truth, so they could only answer with a smile, "We don't know this question either. We are members of the Donggu Lord's tribe. You might as well ask him."
During this period of conversation, everyone already knew that Master Yan Feng Dongyi was named the Lord of the East Valley. Although this was a joke, everyone didn't mind at all - the Lord of the East Valley would be the Lord of the East Valley. If he
If you are willing, you can also be the host and take charge.
Hearing that Yan Xiaomeng kicked the ball to Dong Yiming, everyone turned their heads and took a look at the pavilion. However, they saw that Dong Yiming was facing the small lake and seemed to be turning a deaf ear. They immediately lost interest in asking.
However, some people have lively thoughts, thinking that Dongshangren has the magical power to change his appearance. He was able to impersonate Yanshangren last time, so it is normal for him to get a clone for himself this time.
However, those who have guessed this answer will never take the initiative to say it. Everyone is a disciple of Lan Xiang. It is obviously more advantageous to have two Dongshang people supporting our sect than one Dongshang person.
Next, let’s talk about the Tianlei Valley target promised by Qingyun Temple. This is also a very important thing.
Looking at the overall situation, Qingyun Temple bypassed the White Camel Gate and directly gave Lan Xiang training indicators. This is the most obvious intention to make good friends, and it is of great benefit to Lan Xiang's development.
From a specific point of view, Lan Xiang has such an extra spot, which is also very valuable.
It is not just Yan Xiaomeng and Qiao Rennu who want to practice how to combine Qi into thunder. What is particularly important is that Qi cultivators also have disciples with thunder attributes who need to be tempered by thunder and lightning in order to better practice the technique.
Although Lan Xiang is from the Qi Cultivation sect, he also has the Thunder Cultivation Technique. For example, Nan Wangliu practiced the Thunder Cultivation Technique when he was a spirit immortal and formed the Lei Yin.
The refinement of thunder and lightning does not necessarily have to be done in Tianlei Valley. Just like Chen Taizhong in Red Valley, he can also cultivate thunder and lightning.
However, it is very convenient to receive training in Tianlei Valley, with low risk and high efficiency. It is really good to have such a quota.
From a resource perspective, the quota in Tianlei Valley is the resource that Lan Xiang should compete for.
It didn't take long for everyone to agree that with this limited resource, the order of disciples going to Tianlei Valley to practice should be determined through contribution and ranking.
Huangfuyuan Chief thought more, and asked after hearing this, "Qingyun Temple has given us such a quota, should we also arrange a quota for each other in Xuanbing Cave?"
Things like resources are inherently mutual. Lan Xiang's newly discovered ice cave may not be worse than Tianlei Valley in terms of importance. Lan Xiang is originally a sect of the sect, and Qingyun Temple is a sect.
In exchange, Lan Xiang is not ashamed at all, it can be said that he has raised his status.
"It's not necessary," at this time, a voice came, and everyone heard it, and it was the Dong Yiming of another pavilion.
Dongshangren looked outside the pavilion and spoke calmly without looking back, "Qingyun Temple did not kill the demon cultivators in Baolan. After they kill the demon cultivators, it will not be too late to equalize the spots among them."
