Chapter 405: Six towns arrive together, hand over the murderer, God-Machine Crossbow, swearing

Great Xia Year 8, September 17th, late night.

Hong Sect City, Siya Building.

A young man wearing regular clothes in dark red, with a silver horizontal sword hanging from his waist, walked slowly toward the main gate. The young man looked to be in his early thirties, over two meters tall, his physique far more burly than ordinary people. His steady pace combined with his calm posture, even with a faint smile on his face, that temperament of standing like an abyss also radiated from his bones, giving people a sense of inexplicable oppression.

On his dark red regular clothes was embroidered a lifelike golden magic sheep. The six sharp horns of the magic sheep just happened to probe forward from the right shoulder. Its teeth-baring and claw-waving posture added a bit of noble temperament to the young man.

"Greetings to Lord Yue!"

Dozens of golden-armored soldiers on duty at the main gate of the Siya building saw the young man coming, their expressions immediately became solemn, and they bowed to him.

"No need for courtesy, can I go in directly?"

Watching Yue Feng saw most of the people entering and leaving the main building being questioned and checked by the gate-keeping soldiers, so he asked with a smile.

A leading captain immediately stood out with a smile and bowed, "My Lord is joking. Because there were spies from outside towns trying to mix into the Siya building to inquire about news some time ago, these spies are not strong, but their methods of fooling around are one higher than the other. Worried that they would disturb the Si Zheng and the adults, our Cloud Dragon Army set up a checkpoint here to check."

Those on duty at the gate were all Cloud Dragon Army soldiers. Watching Yue Feng recognized them as soon as he approached. However, after listening to the captain's explanation, his expression still sank a little.

"Then you have to check carefully, don't let those petty people mix in."

"My Lord, rest assured, now anyone with a strange face, whether they are from the Great Xia camp or not, we will check carefully. There is absolutely no problem!"

Watching Yue Feng nodded upon hearing this. He is not only the Longshan Shou Zheng but also a Commander of an army. He still trusts Great Xia's military discipline.

"By the way, My Lord, are you here for a banquet today? I just saw Director Qiu and Director Yuan carry several large jars of fine wine up."

Hearing the soldier's words, a smile appeared on Watching Yue Feng's face. After thinking about it, he took out a green wine pot from his arms and threw it to the captain.

"They brought it, so I won't bring it. This bottle of Qingyang wine is for you!"

The captain took the wine pot amidst the envious eyes of a group of soldiers on the side, full of smiles, and said with a grin: "Thank you, Lord Yue, for the wine!"

Watching Yue Feng waved his hand with a smile and walked in directly.

"Qingyang is a medium-grade wine. This bottle is 25,000 contribution points! It must be more than half a catty!"

"He took it out casually. Lord Yue's family wealth is probably also astonishing."

"Nonsense, don't you know how powerful the Longshan outpost is? Lord Yue has been in charge of Longshan for six years. How little can his family wealth be?"

"Yes, yes, yes, almost forgot. I heard that Longshan's Yingchuang value ranking is the first for a long time. It is considered the first outpost of Great Xia. Lord Yue, this Longshan Shou Zheng Shi, his family wealth must be astonishing."

"Shou Zheng Shi is nothing. I heard that Lord Yue has made great contributions in charge of Longshan for six years, and the Si Zheng has planned to promote him."

"Promoted from Shou Zheng Shi, then wouldn't it be..."

"Si Zheng, it should be a Deputy Si Zheng."

"Captain, don't enjoy that bottle of Qingyang alone. Give us some when you change shifts and return to the barracks."

"Get out, get out, get out, it's not easy to pick up a bottle for nothing, if you want to drink, change it yourself."

"Really stingy!"

"Hahahaha............"

Watching Yue Feng naturally didn't know the banter between the soldiers at the gate. He came in and went up the stairs directly.

The design of the Siya main building in all Great Xia outposts is basically the same, divided into five floors. The top floor is used for outpost discussions, and the lower four floors are divided into eight areas for the Eight Departments to handle affairs.

Watching Yue Feng walked to the top floor with ease, walked to a side hall on the flank, pushed the door open directly, and seeing the five young people of similar age sitting around the round table, a smile appeared on his face.

"Why are you so slow to change clothes?"

"Come quickly, come quickly, just waiting for you."

"The six of us haven't been this complete for a long time. It's not easy to gather in Hong Sect this time. Don't delay time, hurry up."

It turned out that the five people sitting around the round table at the moment were Yuan Cheng, Qiu Peng, Xu Ning, Lu Yang, and Lin Kai.

"Hahahaha, sorry to keep you waiting!"

Hearing everyone urging, Watching Yue Feng laughed and sat down at the table, looking around at his five good friends, his smile carrying a slight sigh.

"Since the Longshan New Deal in the second year of Great Xia, it has indeed been a long time since we have been so complete. Especially after Xu Ning had an accident last year, I thought that the six of us would never have the chance to gather and drink like this again."

Hearing Watching Yue Feng's emotion, the six people looked at each other, and their faces couldn't help but move.

The six of them have been following the Lord Xia Hong since the earth slope period ten years ago, and they can be considered the veteran figures of Great Xia today.

But if you look closely, the oldest Watching Yue Feng is 31 years old, and the youngest Lin Kai is only 28 years old, so the ages of the six are actually not large.

At least, compared to the ages of sixty or seventy or even eighty or ninety years old of those in high positions in the other eight towns, the six are definitely considered small.

The six are young, but they have experienced no less than anyone else in the past ten years, especially following the Lord Xia Hong all the way. Great Xia has grown step by step from the precariousness of the earth slope period to today, sitting on a territory of more than 20,000 square kilometers, with strength covering the eight towns at the southern foot of Mo Ao, a simple Hong Sect opening has attracted Cold-Resisting levels from the eight towns to flock here, and so on... all of this............

The six of them are not only witnesses but also heavy participants in all these changes.

The more you experience, the stronger the feelings. This sentence is not empty.

To this day, the six of them are no longer the six teenagers who didn't understand anything and only waited for the Lord to bring back beast meat on the earth slope.

Qiu Peng is now the Director of the Camp Supply Department, in charge of Great Xia's treasury. The finances he handles every year are countless. The basic cultivation resources like beast meat that he couldn't ask for back then, he now basically doesn't care about flipping through the accounts every month. It can be said that any of his decisions can directly affect the lives of more than 1 million people in Great Xia. His power is the greatest among the six;

Yuan Cheng is now the Director of the Jurisdiction Department. All divisions in Xia City and all outposts outside Xia City, safety and personnel appointments are managed by him. Strictly speaking, Xu Ning and Watching Yue Feng are his subordinates;

Xu Ning is now not only the Deputy Director of the Jurisdiction Department but also concurrently serves as the Shou Zheng Shi of Bashing. Unlike other Great Xia outposts, Bashing is a town-level city after all, so the surrounding He Yin and the sixteen newly established outposts around the Nine Bends Camp are all managed by Bashing. The gold content of the Bashing Shou Zheng Shi can be said to far exceed that of all other outposts;

Watching Yue Feng is now the Longshan Shou Zheng Shi. Half of the Longyou outpost is under his management, and he also watches over such a large resource area as Longshan. His status goes without saying;

Lin Kai is now the Hong Sect City Shou Zheng. Hong Sect has only been opened for business for more than two months. Because many transaction matters are still in the exploration stage, Xia Chuan is currently sitting here in charge. But as the transaction rules and various rules in the city are completely established, it will definitely be handed over to Lin Kai to be responsible;

Lu Yang goes without saying. The Dongling outpost is related to Great Xia's second eastward route, and its strategic significance goes without saying. The gold content of his Shou Zheng is not lower than that of Watching Yue Feng, Lin Kai, and Xu Ning.

Today is naturally different from the past, but no matter how their status rises, one thing has remained unchanged from beginning to end, and that is the friendship between the six of them.

The friendship between them is no longer enough to be described by the word "friend," and even words like "best friend," "brother," and "hand and foot"... all seem insufficient.

The last major change in the camp should be traced back to the Longshan New Deal in the second year of Great Xia. Since Watching Yue Feng took office as the Longshan Shou Zheng Shi that year, Great Xia began to develop by leaps and bounds. The six of them each held important positions and basically had never gathered so completely.

Gathering together with great difficulty this time because of the Hong Sect matter, the six of them naturally want to have a good drunk.

As the six of them pushed cups and changed lamps, they opened their hearts and talked about the past, from the hard years ten years ago to the Great Awakening Temple last year, and then to the current situation of the nine towns at the southern foot of Mo Ao, basically chatting about everything that could be chatted about.

Corresponding to this is the empty wine pot on the table, which piled up at a speed visible to the naked eye. From 6 to 12, and then to 18, the six people intentionally increased the conversation and controlled the amount of drinking.

"Xu Ning, your luck is really nothing to say. We were very anxious when we knew you had an accident last year. Who would have thought that you actually..."

Lin Kai suddenly thought of something, pointing at Xu Ning, his face full of envy.

Qiu Peng couldn't help but take over the conversation, pointing at Xu Ning and saying to the other four: "Looking back now, this kid basically rested for more than half a year, slept, and his battle body qualification was promoted from top-grade to top-grade. Who says it's not annoying?"

"Hahahaha!"

Xu Ning saw Lin Kai, Qiu Peng, and Watching Yue Feng full of envy, and couldn't help but laugh proudly. After laughing, he showed gratitude and said: "In the final analysis, it is thanks to the Lord. The liver of that Wusheng Master was really a great help to me. When the Lord woke me up at the end of April, my base strength directly soared to 27 manes. It has only been more than four months now, and I have improved to 36 manes."

36 manes!

Hearing the strength reported by Xu Ning, everyone's expressions suddenly shook.

Qiu Peng couldn't help but reveal surprise, "Improved 9 manes in more than four months, what is your speed? Isn't it a bit too exaggerated?"

Not only Qiu Peng, but Lin Kai and Watching Yue Feng were also shocked, obviously unable to understand Xu Ning's terrifying improvement speed; only Yuan Cheng and Lu Yang did not show any surprise on their faces, as if they had expected it.

"Hehe, don't just stare at me! Yuan Cheng and Lu Yang also got the treasures rewarded by the Lord. Let them tell you."

Hearing Xu Ning's words, the three immediately turned their eyes to Yuan and Lu.

Yuan Cheng didn't have the intention to hide it, and said directly: "I don't know what happened to Xu Ning. Since I used that lung of the Vajra Master last month, from skin membrane to flesh to meridians, and finally to bones, almost everything has been renewed. My base strength soared by 9 manes on the spot. I improved by more than 2 manes after practicing this month, and now I have 39 manes."

"My situation is about the same as Yuan Cheng's. Before I changed that heart of the Flame Dragon Master in early August, my base strength was 27 manes. After changing it, it soared by 9 manes. After more than a month of cultivation, it also rose by more than 2 manes, and now I have about 39 manes of strength."

Skin membrane, flesh, meridians, and bones are all renewed, so the cultivation speed is naturally much faster than before. Qiu Peng and the three heard Yuan Cheng and Lu Yang's words, although they already understood, they still felt a bit unbelievable after pondering for a while.

Improving more than 2 manes in more than a month, this cultivation speed is too outrageous!

"The two of you used the Master's organs in August. The effect of the Master's organs will continue to diminish in the future. The cultivation speed in the first month will indeed be very fast, but it will gradually stabilize later. I am already in the fifth month now. I estimate that I can only improve by half a mane this month."

Hearing Xu Ning's words, the expressions of Qiu Peng and the three finally relaxed a bit.

The strongest of the three, Qiu Peng, has 31 manes of strength, Watching Yue Feng 30 manes, and Lin Kai's strength is relatively the weakest, only 29 manes.

It is not that they don't hope that Yuan Cheng and the three will become stronger, the key is that if the three really continue to improve at this speed, then their strength will be completely left behind in a few years.

"We also have limits to improve by pills. The gap is almost 10 manes now. The gap with you will probably get bigger and bigger in the future!"

Hearing Watching Yue Feng's emotion, Yuan Cheng immediately waved his hand to comfort him: "With the Lord's current strength, there will definitely be treasures like the Master's organs in the future. It will be your turn next time. Lu Yang and I are just lucky. The contribution points were just enough. Otherwise, who would use this organ is really hard to say!"

Qiu Peng was a bit angry when he heard this. He took a hard gulp of wine and looked at Lu Yang and Yuan Cheng fiercely: "I really suffered a big loss this time. It was only 350,000 contribution points short, but I was snatched by you two."

"Hahahaha..."

Yuan Cheng knew about this. Xia Hong priced the two organs of the Flame Dragon and Vajra Masters at 10 million. Except for Xia Chuan and Director Yu Wen Tao, only he and Lu Yang had them. Qiu Peng's contribution points were just 9.65 million. It was indeed a loss.

"10 million contribution points, I saved for almost half a year, and it was all taken out in one go. Next time there is any good treasure, it definitely won't be my turn."

Lu Yang's voice fell, and Xu Ning said quietly on the side: "You can still take out so much. I still owe the Camp Supply Department more than 1 million contribution points. I estimate that I will have to wait until the end of the year to pay it off."

"Hahahahahaha..."

Hearing Xu Ning's words, everyone laughed.

When Xu Ning was woken up at the end of April, he only had more than 5 million contribution points. Xia Hong priced the organ of the Wusheng Master at 8 million at that time. Calculated, Xu Ning did owe the Camp Supply Department nearly 3 million. He has been sitting in Bashing for more than four months, and the matter of going out to hunt to pay off debts from time to time has been widely circulated in Xia City now. ===== CHAPTER 406 =====
