I Have An Impenetrable Fortress

"Anyway, being able to protect so many people here is a well-deserved pure land in troubled times."

Like Shang Jie, Wen Hu turned around and looked at the city of Chang'an: "I hope this place will last forever."

"This place saved your life, so it's only natural for you to stay here to repay your kindness." Shang Jie smiled: "But this gate will always be your home, remember to come back when you have time."

Wen Hu sighed and nodded: "Uncle, please rest assured, the disciples will not forget the kindness of the teacher's upbringing."

"I will see you off a thousand miles away, but we have to say goodbye at last, so let's just say goodbye."

Shang Jie bid farewell to Wen Hu, turned around and walked along the simple road, through the fields outside the city, into the forest of Baiyunyuan.

In Chang'an City, in Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun watched all this with a smile.

Dahe Longmen is a suitable trading partner.

Not only did the other party have the financial resources to eat a large amount of turquoise crystals produced in Chang'an, but also because the other party controlled the transportation of the big river and waterway, and had a fairly good influence, which could protect the transaction.

On the other hand, it looks like the quality reputation is equally good.

However, Zhang Dongyun didn't discuss this matter with the other party just now.

First, I don't want to appear too urgent on my side.

Secondly, the other party is already in his pocket... Zhang Dongyun laughed silently.

Shang Jie went all the way down the mountain, and first arrived at the nearest town below the mountain.

A teenager is waiting in town.

Seeing Shang Jie returning, the young man heaved a sigh of relief: "Uncle Shi, you are back."

Shang Jie nodded: "Let's go."

"Uncle, how is Brother Wen?" the young man asked while packing his luggage.

"He's fine, and those people are fine."

Shang Jie smiled and said: "This Chang'an City is not a dangerous place. On the contrary, the people in the city live and work in peace and contentment, and finally they don't have to be troubled by natural disasters and man-made disasters."

After packing up his luggage, the boy and Shang Jie set out on the road together.

He was full of curiosity: "Uncle, why did such a city of Chang'an suddenly appear here?

I have never heard of it before, and this is too abrupt. What is the origin of this city? "

"I do not know either."

Shang Jie shook her head lightly: "Your Senior Brother Wen also doesn't know about it, but at present, at least it's a good thing, which is beneficial to the local people."

The two immediately set out on the road, left Qinzhou Mansion, followed the big river, went downstream, all the way to the east.

The boat sailed for several days, passing through the boundary of Tongzhou Prefecture.

In the evening, the passenger ship temporarily docked to rest.

The nephew of the same school went to buy fresh water, Shang Jie didn't get off the boat, but walked to the deck to enjoy the air.

Later, suddenly a few words, mixed in the wind, floated into Shang Jie's ears.

"Thunderbolt sect...suddenly contacted the buyer of the jade pine crystal...they seem to be related to Chang'an City...take down the Thunderbolt sect first..."

Shang Jie frowned slightly, and the corner of her eyes drifted into the distance.

Tongzhou is an important place for transportation, and there are frequent exchanges between merchants and merchants. It seems that Chang'an City entrusted a local power here, the Thunderbolt Sect, to contact the buyers of Bisong Stone Crystal, but it is a pity that it was found to be obstructed... The elder of Dahe Longmen thought to himself.

She has a strong cultivation base and sharp eyes and ears.

The other party was hiding on a distant boat and was talking to her, so she couldn't detect her, but the content of the conversation came to her ears intermittently.

"...The buyer, I heard it's the Miao family from Hedong County..."

Shang Jie was slightly taken aback.

The Miao family is a well-known local family in Hedong County. Although it is not comparable to the Chen family in the past, it is still considered a famous family in the area.

The most important thing is that they have a close relationship with Dahe Longmen, and they have always been the leader of Dahe Longmen. Many children in the clan have worshiped Dahe Longmen to learn martial arts.

With the Miao family's financial strength, I am afraid that it is not enough to eat the large amount of green pine crystals in Chang'an City alone.

At that time, we must seek the support of Dahe Longmen.

Wu Qiong of Thunderbolt Sect obviously also liked this point,

Only the Miao family was chosen as the buyer.

It's just that the Miao family doesn't necessarily know yet that the supply of Thunderbolt Sect comes from Chang'an.

This is really... Shang Jie burst out laughing.

I was wondering when it would be appropriate to speak to Chang An.

As a result, the subordinates of both sides have already connected online.

I just don't know those people in Chang'an City, do they know about it?

On the other side of the Longmen, how will the sect master and the others make a decision?

While pondering, Shang Jie took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote a letter.

After she returned to the boat with her nephew, Shang Jie handed over the letter to him.

"I will stay in Tongzhou for a while, you go on the road first, return to the door quickly, and hand this letter to the senior brother in charge, there must be no mistakes."

Hearing Shang Jie's order, the young man was surprised.

But he didn't ask much, and immediately took the letter solemnly.

The young man didn't even wait for the passenger ship, he immediately went ashore to buy a mount urgently, and then rushed back to the teacher's gate by land.

Shang Jie calmed down and settled down in Tongzhou Mansion, looking for those people who had conspired earlier.

Here, she really saw people from the Miao family.

The other party was invited by Perak Sect to meet secretly.

"Miao Lao, please take a look."

In the quiet room, Wu Qiong smiled and pushed the brocade box on the table to the opposite side.

The old man sitting across from him opened the brocade box, and a bright green light burst out of it.

Inside the brocade box, a palm-sized turquoise crystal was quietly shining with brilliance.

Inside the spar, there seems to be agate-like chalcedony constantly shaking and flowing.

"Sure enough, it is a very high-quality jade pine crystal."

The old man surnamed Miao nodded slightly, then looked at Wu Qiong across the table:

"Master Wu, this thing is indeed good.

However, what is the origin, I wonder if you can tell me? "

Wu Qiong smiled unabated: "Old Miao, I will definitely not deceive you with fake products."

The old man on the opposite side shook his head: "Of course I can believe it, but such a large amount of turquoise crystals must be produced by a new mine. If there is a problem with the ownership of the mine, I don't want to pay the money, but the goods have problems."

Wu Qiong still smiled: "On this point, old man, you can rest assured that there will be no problem with the supply of goods. It is only a dream for the Eastern Tang royal family to want to get involved."

The old man raised his white eyebrows slightly:

"Longbei County and Tongzhou are both in the land of forgetting the truth, so they may not dare to say this.

If you want to say that the face of the Eastern Tang royal family is not for sale, head Wu, are you trying to build a bridge there? "

He said, pointing to the west.

Wu Qiong nodded with a smile: "Miao Lao should believe what I said earlier."

The old man fell silent instead.

"Sect Master Wu hides his secrets, and this old man admires it, but I'm afraid it's hard to tell what the future will be like for that place in Longling Mountain..." After a long while, the old man spoke slowly.

"Don't speak dark words in front of Ming people." Wu Qiong restrained her smile and looked a little solemn.

"Such a large amount, and the problem of mid-way transportation involved, it should be impossible for your Miao family to eat it completely, right? It must involve Dahe Longmen, isn't it?"

The old man surnamed Miao was silent when he heard the words.

Wu Qiong continued: "Dahe Longmen, as well as your Miao family, have always been the thorn in the eyes of the Eastern Tang royal family. Now that the Tang king is going against the grain, the pressure on your two families is also increasing. Now, with me in Chang'an, we can unite and work together. Resist the tyranny of the Eastern Tang Dynasty."

"As for the future of Chang'an City..." Wu Qiong paused for a moment, then lowered her voice: "My Majesty in the Daming Palace of Chang'an City is unfathomable..."

The old man stared at Wu Qiong, and Wu Qiong looked at him calmly: "In addition to surrendering to the Tang army, Chang'an City can also hold those who forget the truth."

"Oh?" Hearing this, the old man's expression became more serious.

He stared at Wu Qiong: "Longling is located in the sphere of influence of Wangzhen Temple, so it is not surprising that the two sides have conflicts.

But the relationship between Wangzhenguan and the royal family of the Eastern Tang Dynasty is not harmonious, and Chang'an offended both of them at once, which is not conducive to their future development..."

"Unless..." Wu Qiong interjected: "My Majesty, has the confidence to fight against the Eastern Tang royal family and Wangzhenguan at the same time."

The old man surnamed Miao took a deep breath, leaned on the back of the chair, and meditated silently.

Wu Qiong didn't say much anymore, and just sipped tea lightly.

"Oldness takes some time."

After a while, the old man spoke.

"There is nothing wrong with it, I am looking forward to your reply." Wu Qiong knew that he would ask the head of the Miao family for instructions, and communicate and negotiate with Dahe Longmen.

The two discussed it properly and went out together.

As soon as the door was pushed open, Wu Qiong's face suddenly changed: "Who?"

A figure flashed past, and quickly fled across the house and alley.

The expressions of Wu Qiong and the old man surnamed Miao changed drastically, and they all rose into the air and chased after the man.

The other party fled all the way, and finally fled into a room.

After Wu Qiong and the two caught up, they couldn't help but slow down.

The current situation looks like a trap.

But they just let the other party run away, and they were not reconciled.

If the people of the Eastern Tang court had listened to their secret talks, it would be hard to say what would happen to Chang'an City and Dahe Longmen, but their Thunderbolt Sect and Miao Clan would certainly not be able to go around.

At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from the room: "Come in."

Wu Qiong was taken aback, and the old man surnamed Miao was even more surprised: "This voice sounds familiar, like... the elder Longmen Shang?"

The two hesitated for a while before entering the courtyard.

As a result, I saw people lying all over the floor in a mess inside.

A middle-aged woman, who was chasing someone, was exactly what Wu Qiong and the others were chasing just now.

"Elder Shang." The old man surnamed Miao stepped forward to salute and say hello.

Wu Qiong also followed up and thanked: "Longmen is worthy of running across the river. If it weren't for Elder Shang's action, we might have a disaster this time."

"You are Welcome."

Shang Jie looked at Wu Qiong with an inexplicable look: "Chang'an City is more clever."
