After the three royal secret guards were sent away, Feihu Trail completely returned to its previous peaceful state...
The increase in migrant population has not affected the stable order of Flying Fox Trail.
The existence of piggyback rail transportation makes the entire Feihu Trail closely connected, and there is no situation where communication and management are difficult for new residential areas due to traffic reasons.
Taniguchi City is a veritable administrative, educational and financial center of Feihu Trail, and many of the farms and pastures under its jurisdiction have begun to be transformed into standard residential areas.
The farms and pastures began to move outside the valley where Taniguchi City was located, covering a larger area and able to produce more grain and cattle and horses.
Originally, the problem of lack of management personnel that might have arisen was quickly solved with the graduation of the first batch of students from the secondary school.
All in all, everything went very smoothly on Feihu Trail's side, and there was no trouble at all for Chen Ying to come forward in person.
Chen Ying was naturally happy to have some leisure time. After letting his subordinates sort and manage the affairs of Feihu Jingling, most of his thoughts were spent on pondering his own cultivation and creating more cultivation paths.
Now, he already has some ideas about using nature, or the magnetic field between heaven and earth, and it is estimated that it will not take long to start verifying it.
At this time, his strength, as the power of the soul continued to grow, naturally entered the realm of the divine and enlightened god.
Regarding this, he didn't feel much joy in his heart, he just regarded it as normal.
On the other hand, Xiong Dazhuang, who had experienced adventures deep into the hinterland outside the Great Wall, seemed to have learned some tricks, and his strength actually showed signs of substantial improvement.
The first thing that shows up is the sharp increase in the power of the soul. Sometimes it seems that the soul is fluctuating violently, and there is no time to restrain it so that outsiders can clearly sense it.
Sometimes, this guy seems to transform into a standing mutant bear. Whether it is the way he walks or the demeanor he reveals inadvertently, he is exactly the same as a real mutant bear.
The skin, muscles, and bones of the entire body, as well as the internal organs, bone marrow, and the most important Qi and blood have changes that can be detected by the naked eye.
Chen Ying saw this, so naturally he would not express it...
Several more high-level elixirs made of ripe red fruits were presented, as well as some tips on physical training. It was obvious that this guy had broken through to a higher level and realm.
I feel quite sad in my heart...
Damn it, Xiong Dazhuang's progress was a bit astonishing. Sometimes he couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the original sword mad Lingfeng was just a fake son of luck, and the real son of luck in the North was Xiong Dazhuang?
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain the speed of Xiong Dazhuang's strength improvement. It is almost like riding a rocket. As long as there is some opportunity, he can jump higher.
Of course, whether it is for Xiong Dazhuang himself, Feihu Trail, or Chen Ying, this is naturally an extremely good thing.
If Xiong Dazhuang can successfully break through to the level of Grand Master, it will mean that the ceiling height of Feihu Trail's internal boxing has been increased, which will be a shot in the arm for the entire Feihu Trail's internal boxing warriors.
Feihu Trail has a powerful grandmaster who is known to be in charge, and its deterrence to outside powerful people will not be the same.
At least, if the experts from Lotus Sect and Shangqing Palace come again, they will not dare to be careless...
Of course, Xiong Dazhuang's improvement in strength has not been made known to everyone, and everything is still kept secret.
I don’t know if there was someone who didn’t want him to live a leisurely life. Half a year after the royal secret guard left, a letter suddenly came from Beidicheng, sending an official document in the name of Zhenbei Palace, inviting him to attend a high-level meeting in Beidicheng.
.
Chen Ying was a little curious, so he immediately called his second brother Chen Wu who was staying at Feihu Trail, showed him the official documents, and then said curiously: "Second brother, what is going on? This has never been like this before.
matter!"
It has been several years since he took office at Feihujing, but he has never received such a formal document before. The leader of Feihujing has always been excluded from the high-level circles of Northland.
"I'm not sure about this either!"
Chen Wu was also a little puzzled, shook his head and said, "Why don't you go back and check the situation?"
"Second brother, your strength has been at its peak for some time!"
Chen Ying changed the subject with a smile and said with a leisurely smile: "After that, it will be a process of accumulation. There is no need to continue to stay on Feihu Trail. Why don't you, brother, go back and help me ask what is going on?"
"You..."
How much I don’t want to interact with Beidicheng, I’m speechless.
Chen Wu didn't know what to say. Seeing that Chen Ying smiled and showed no intention of changing his mind, he nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go back to Beidicheng and bring the fourth child over!"
He was still quite proud of himself. At his age, he had reached the peak level of innateness. Even if he was placed in the hinterland of the empire, it was quite a feat.
Although it is incomparable to peerless geniuses like the third child, Chen Ying, and Xiong Dazhuang, it is much better than ordinary geniuses.
Just as the third child Chen Ying said, his cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and then there is the process of accumulation and impact on the master realm. It is the same in Feihu Trail.
Of course, he could be sure that if he were in Feihu Trail, the strong martial arts here would make his breakthrough much earlier.
But as the second son of Zhenbei Gongfu, he also has a position in the Northern Frontier Army, and he also has necessary contacts to deal with. It is impossible for him to be like the third child, Chen Ying, who can have no worries about nesting.
Be a couch potato at Flying Fox Trail.
After making the decision, Chen Wu did not delay. The next day, he took the guards and long followers around him and left Feihu Trail directly to return to the Beidi City where he had been away for a long time.
But less than a month later, Beidicheng sent another urgent official letter, which also included a private message from Chen Wu, briefly explaining some situations and asking Chen Ying to leave for Beidicheng immediately.
This Northland high-level meeting is very important!
If you can refuse, Chen Ying really doesn't want to get involved in these nonsense. The important things in the North have nothing to do with him, a lord of a marginal territory?
But there are some things that, as the third young master of Zhenbei Gongfu, it is really difficult for him to get rid of completely, such as this high-level meeting...
Then return to Beidicheng. He wanted to see what happened to cause such a mobilization of troops?
This time, he asked Xiong Dazhuang to stay at Feihujing's old lair, and took five strong men with him, "Qingchao Jian Cong", to rush to Beidi City.
The group took the nearest rail train directly from the rail train station in Taniguchi City and traveled 1,500 miles a day. They waited until they reached the town closest to Feihu Trail before getting off the train and getting on their horses.
That's right, in recent years Feihu Trail's rail transit has not only been laid within the territory, but has also begun to spread toward Beidicheng along the official road leading to Beidicheng.
No, the track laid by ironwood has spread from another exit of Feihu Trail to a small town that has sprung up in recent years, thousands of miles away.
Chen Ying had no intention of hanging around here and showing off, so she changed horses and headed straight for the North Dungeon City.
He didn't know if it was the result of the continuous migration of people, but he clearly felt that the towns along the way were more lively than before.
No wonder some generals in the North wanted to intercept some of the people who migrated to Feihu Trail, but they thought too beautifully.
Due to the urgency of the official letter, Chen Ying and his party traveled from 1,500 to 2,000 miles almost every day, but it took less than ten days to return to Beidicheng.
The second brother, Chen Wu, seemed to have been mentally prepared. He arranged for a boy to keep an eye on him at the gate of the city. He immediately learned the news of Chen Ying's return and hurried to the inn to meet him.
In other words, since Chen Ying left Zhenbei Gongfu, he behaved very well every time he returned to Beidi City. Even if the Gongfu kept his courtyard, he never went back to live there, but always stayed at the inn.
It's not that I draw a clear line, but I don't want to irritate the sensitive nerves of the mistress of the palace.
Chen Ying did not want to conflict with this mistress of the princess palace who was born in the direct line of the royal family and had the title of princess. There was no need for her.
As for the people in the palace, I don't know if they knew this and didn't pay too much attention to Chen Ying's behavior.
"What's going on?"
Seeing his second brother Chen Wu, Chen Ying took him to his temporary residence and asked the accompanying Gang Jin experts to keep an eye on the door before he asked directly.
"Something big has happened, so it's hard to say it clearly in a private message!"
Chen Wu looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "The empire plans to use troops against the tribes outside the Great Wall, and the northern border troops will be the main force!"
What?
Chen Ying opened his eyes wide and saw his second brother Chen Wu nodding solemnly, and then he realized that he had heard correctly.
But the next moment he felt quite strange, and asked: "How many years have it been peaceful here in the Northland, and the war is about to start again!"
In his memory, before he was five years old, his cheap father Chen Longcheng was away fighting all year round, and it was at that time that the Flying Fox Trail was conquered.
Later, perhaps because the territory they occupied was large enough to support them, or for some other reason, the Northern Border Army ceased to exist for almost twenty years.
By the way, with the Northland being so vast and sparsely populated, is it still necessary to use troops against the tribes beyond the Great Wall?
Even if a large territory is conquered, there will not be enough troops to defend it, nor will there be that many people to absorb it.
What is the use of land that cannot be digested?
"Which general with a sick mind came up with such an unreliable idea?"
Chen Ying was not polite. He rolled his eyes and scolded: "If you really have the ability, you can play the trick of expanding the territory by yourself. Do you really think this is playing house?"
"Third brother, be careful what you say!"
Chen Wu was startled, and hurriedly lowered his voice and reminded: "This campaign was proposed by the royal family and confirmed by the court. It is not a hasty behavior of the northern generals. You kid, please don't find it for yourself."
Not happy!"
"Didn't my father say anything and just let the royal family and the court mess around?"
Chen Ying felt that this incident was sudden and unreliable, but she was thoughtful, thinking that this incident might be related to the ruins of the Ice Sword Sect...
