The Huo family is now trying to resolve grievances instead of killing directly, which is indeed related to Shen Tang. But if I tell you that I never thought about this aspect when I decided to help Shen Tang, do you believe it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli said seriously: \"Believe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou was stunned again: \"Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No reason, perhaps I just wanted to hear you say that, nothing more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Would that make you feel more comfortable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That would make Shen Tang feel more comfortable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou looked at her for a long time, and finally said: \"In fact, I have no certainty to help Shen Tang achieve her goal. Her goal is too big. In this process, those side issues should not be considered more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou said: \"What did you want to say to me before Yang Dechang came?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli answered simply: \"Nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was also wanting to ask if he would leave, but now it seems there is nothing to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I have something to say.\" Lu Xingzhou laughed mockingly: \"Yang Dechang came here, not specifically for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli was stunned: \"How?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He must be responsible for continuing to investigate the Huo Yu case... this is a small matter. Now Sheng Yuanyao is the acting City Lord, and she is deeply involved in this matter, and she is smart. Yang Dechang can't find anything. The real big thing is... \" Lu Xingzhou paused and whispered: \"You said if the royal succession is divided into parties, which party is the Huo family?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli thought carefully, but still shook her head: \"I don't know about this kind of thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Huo family is a lone minister of the Emperor on the surface and will not lean towards any prince, seemingly unrelated to this matter. But from the fact that the Huo family concealed the elixir from the Emperor, we can know that the Huo family must also be looking for a way out and must have secretly bet on other princes. No matter which prince's person it is, he will not want to see Shen Tang rise. The show of favor to me also has the meaning of paralyzing Shen Tang. In fact, they will definitely suppress the Heaven Travel Sword Sect secretly, and it will start immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli's heart twitched, thinking carefully that this conclusion is correct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Huo family has major things to hide from the Emperor and must find a way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So Shen Tang now seems to be rising with the haze scattered, but in fact, she will be suppressed immediately. And this suppression is not only from the malice of various princes, but also the vigilance of local forces in Xiazhou. They don't know who Shen Tang is, but no one is willing to see a strong Sword Sect rise beside them for no reason. This mentality is easily used by various princes to form a situation of being the target of public criticism. Lu Xingzhou shook the land deed in his hand: \"Now ten miles of fields, two mountains rolling, the atmosphere is grand, enough to make Xiazhou people look sideways...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli gasped: \"They gave you the land deed and still have the intention of provoking Xiazhou people?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, otherwise why would they be so kind... On the surface, they say they are resolving grievances, pfft.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli really admires the exquisite hearts of these guys. A simple little thing actually hides multiple meanings behind the scenes. What she admires even more is that Lu Xingzhou seems to be entangled with Yang Dechang about grievances, but in fact, he sees it clearly in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know this land deed is ill-intentioned, then you still accept it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why not accept what is delivered to the door? Development is an inevitable thing, and development must conflict with local forces. If you don't even have this psychological preparation, what are you playing...\" Lu Xingzhou said lightly: \"I have wanted the Huo residence for a long time. Under this temptation, everything is worth it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli said: \"I have secretly explored the Huo residence, and there is really nothing there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about exploring it openly instead of secretly? No matter how you do it, you can't dig three feet into the ground, nor can you connect this whole area including Danxia Mountain to ponder this area as a whole, but now the conditions are already met.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Overall terrain...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli was stunned there, she really hadn't thought about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have been on Danxia Mountain for half a year, looking down and outlining it every day, and I have a rough idea in my heart, which still needs verification.\" Lu Xingzhou smiled: \"Now just wait for Shen Tang to come back and see how she and Liu Yan'er intersect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou stopped talking after finishing, lowering his head to quietly prepare his external medicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky gradually turned to dusk, and the two were quiet, one preparing medicine and one guarding, without words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli was always in a daze. For some reason, she could actually see the shadow of her master on this mere Seventh Grade guy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That kind of global perspective, the depth that seems to see through the mist of time and space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this person is really strange. When there are people, he is flowery, saying things like \"see the little white hair again,\" but when they are really alone, he doesn't have any teasing words, feeling very split. Originally, she was reluctant to come to protect him, but now it seems there is nothing. He is more serious than Shen Tang, and can make people feel that there is quite a lot to learn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Lu Xingzhou knew her thoughts, he would probably tell her that group chat and private chat are indeed different. If the relationship hasn't reached that point, some words are jokes in group chat, but harassment in private chat, which is not very good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the quiet, I don't know how long it passed, the giggling sound of Anuo pushing the wheelchair came from afar: \"That playboy is really ridiculous, actually really treating himself as the Danxia Gang leader, hahaha...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wheelchair arrived at the door, and the laughter stopped suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The big and small ones poked their heads to look inside. In the sunset glow of dusk, the picture of Lu Xingzhou concentrating on boiling ointment and the white-haired girl standing quietly as a guard made them feel a bit weird in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou didn't lift his head: \"Is it done?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Done.\" Shen Tang entered the door and smiled: \"If you say Liu Yan'er is stupid, she is really not stupid. In fact, the news that she wanted to sell the Danxia Gang was spread by herself secretly. She had long wanted to get rid of that playboy. We came to the door, which can be considered a hit. She only made one additional request, and even this request you calculated...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou held back his laughter: \"Treating the playboy disease.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right.\" Shen Tang smiled: \"I gave her the elixir you prepared, and she transferred the entire Danxia Gang to me without saying a word. She even gave me the leader's token, only wanting a pile of silver notes...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anuo interjected: \"She was discovered by Bai Chi when she left. Bai Chi also shouted and asked the Danxia Gang people to stop her. Master, guess what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou thought for a while: \"I guess Bai Chi was beaten by the Danxia Gang people instead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha!\" Anuo laughed: \"That's right, the Danxia Gang people originally felt that the days in the past six months were very easy, just because it started to collapse after he came. They hated him to the bone. He was still acting, ordering others to chase the young leader, and was almost beaten to death.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure enough, the name is like the person, a complete idiot.\" Lu Xingzhou smiled at Shen Tang: \"You originally needed to recruit people, how is the manpower of the Danxia Gang?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At least there are enough people.\" Shen Tang blinked: \"Can be assessed, excellent ones absorbed, not very good ones listed in the outer sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then congratulations to Miss Shen for not having to worry about the desolation of too few people after occupying Danxia Mountain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also congratulations to Mr. Lu, the chief alchemist of the Danxia Gang, for coming to the old place as their master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anuo curled up in a cage on the side, Dugu Qingli held her sword, and the two looked expressionless. Tomorrow, move the household registration department over, how about you two set up a marriage certificate on the spot?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am the master? I am just a guest minister.\" Lu Xingzhou smiled: \"Oh, no, I am the landlord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang hummed: \"We can not rent here anymore. Danxia Mountain is mine now, including the land deed that used to belong to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou took out the Huo residence land deed: \"Then do you want this? Including fields and back mountain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang widened her eyes: \"How did this come about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou sneered, his words containing irony: \"I am Huo Shang...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang's expression was extremely strange. When they first met, Lu Xingzhou casually drew a pie, saying it was an excellent direction for expansion. It had been less than a month, and it was realized like a dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou put the newly boiled ointment on the case to cool, turned his head and smiled: \"The sunset is beautiful, the scenery is just right. I don't know if the two of you are interested in touring Danxia with me and overlooking the place that belongs to you and me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang blinked and smiled: \"It's an honor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli took a look, Anuo was still standing behind Shen Tang's wheelchair. She thought about Lu Xingzhou's so-called overall terrain, didn't think much, and picked up the handle of Lu Xingzhou's wheelchair and pushed it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anuo: \"?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which white hair said before that she wouldn't fight with me for the position of pushing the wheelchair?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's only been a few days, and she has already snatched it openly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at her master eagerly, hoping her master would say something, but Lu Xingzhou didn't say anything, leaning on the wheelchair and going out with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Does love disappear?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anuo followed Shen Tang out like a sleepwalker, seeing many Heaven Travel Sword Sect disciples and the Danxia Gang apprentices accepted before along the way. Seeing the appearance of these four people and two wheelchairs, they were all smiling, and no one noticed that the person pushing the wheelchair was not quite right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anuo was very angry. What kind of people are they, they have no vision at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is really very close to Danxia Mountain here, and after a while, they returned to the mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou pointed to the edge of the cliff where everyone first met on the hillside: \"When you watched the sunset here, did you find that the sunset glow was blocked a lot by the mountain over there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang pondered slightly and understood Lu Xingzhou's meaning: \"You mean, the heights of these two mountains are equivalent?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not only equivalent, they are exactly the same, even the shapes are similar. I observed for a long time before reaching this conclusion.\" Lu Xingzhou signaled everyone to continue upward, reaching the highest point: \"Both of you should be able to float briefly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can.\" Shen Tang knew the meaning, patted the armrest of the wheelchair, and flew up directly, hovering high in the sky to look down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli also came up, and the two looked down for a while, their hearts shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two mountains of the same height are not the double-breast shape of the first reaction, but are extremely similar to the Yin-Yang fish, the Yin-Yang embrace shape!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is even more surprising is that this Yin-Yang fish is also very like a dragon and a tiger. Danxia Mountain is a dragon, and the back mountain of the Huo residence is a tiger shape. The mountain col where the two sides meet is the heart of the dragon and tiger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of this chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",2139,"2026-06-18T01:46:09.112Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","d54d8911bc148ee574695f5f87f0549f96df3cf5e8f3712e18bfbdc05cf14dda","the-grain-of-mountains-and-rivers-chapter-36","the-grain-of-mountains-and-rivers-chapter-34",325,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmountains-and-rivers-of-the-imperial-granary-cover.jpg"]
