Chapter 290 Heading to Xianlin Town

Xu Erkai, Xu Dajun and others also knew that not to mention Xujiacun, even the entire Donglan territory was unsafe.

It's hard to live in fear every day.

Xu Rushan looked at He Ruoying and others on the side.

"You said Xiao An built a town outside?"

He Ruoying smiled and nodded. This was something she had explained to Xu Rushan before.

Now, after years of training, this young woman has become more capable and experienced. She handles everything in an orderly manner and rarely makes mistakes.

"As you said, the Donglan Mountain boundary is no longer a long-term residence. Even if the troops stationed in Donglan Town do not act randomly, there will only be more and more mountain bandits everywhere.

When going to the town established by the Young Master, at least the safety can be guaranteed. This is what the Young Master has told me.

If you decide to go, I will take you and the villagers there to ensure that there will be no accidents along the way.

If you and the villagers decide to stay, then I will take the young master’s parents, siblings and leave. "

He Ruoying made her intention clear, which was also her purpose of coming to Xujiacun after leaving Donglan Town.

And this is a task ordered by Zhang Yang who is far away in Xianlin Town.

"Brother Xu actually built a town?!" This was the first time Lu Liang heard about it.

This news about Xu Guan really surprised him.

After all, building a town is no easy task.

It involves more than just the depth of personal cultivation.

You also need to have strong financial resources, massive supplies, and a large-scale subordinate force.

This is not something that everyone can do.

As powerful as the Shen family, they wanted to build Donglan Town. Back then, three big village families joined forces to build it bit by bit. Until it was completed, the time spent during the period was also measured in years.

And it had only been a long time since Xu Guan had been out, and even the town was under attack.

It's like your good friend has just attended a prestigious school for a year or two, and then you hear that your good friend has already completed his studies, founded a big company, and is developing extremely well.

"When I first heard about it, I was extremely surprised, but this is Brother Xu, and it cannot be measured by ordinary people." Sitting not far away, Chongshan Shan sighed to Lu Liang.

As a member of the Shen family, he knew better than Lu Liang how difficult it was to build a town, but he also knew Xu Guan's true strength better than Lu Liang.

Therefore, he was more accepting than Lu Liang of Xu Guan proclaiming himself king and building a town of his own.

"Is it possible that the Shen family is already planning to join Xu Guan?" Lu Qianhou looked at Shen Ting and asked.

"Well, it's better to go to the territory of familiar people than to wander around or join unfamiliar forces." Shen Ting did not shy away and directly stated his plan.

Previously, He Ruoying also sent people to find Zhongshan Mountain, revealed the existence of Xianlin Town, and gave the Shen family a choice.

If they are willing, all members can move to Xianlin Town and still be able to consider themselves as members of the Shen family.

This is something Xu Guan told Zhang Yang a long time ago, when Xianlin Town was only half-built.

The same is true for Lu Liang's family.

In fact, Xu Guan also designated some other people with whom he had good relationships during his time in Donglan Town.

However, none of those people planned to leave Donglan Town, so He Ruoying gave up and did not force others to follow her to Xianlin Town.

"I wonder if little friend Xu can also take me in." Lu Qianhou pondered for a moment and asked He Ruoying.

He Ruoying smiled lightly and nodded: "Of course, this is one of the instructions I received."

When Lu Qianhou heard this, he was silently relieved.

"Thank you so much."

As Shen Ting said, going to Xianlin Town is better than wandering around with your family and relatives.

Moreover, he had also experienced Gu An's extraordinary skills, and he might be able to protect them during this period of frequent wars.

Xu Rushan saw that both parties had made a quick decision, especially Lu Qianhou, who had made the decision immediately after hearing about it not long after he arrived.

You must know that Xianlin Town is more than a thousand miles away from the boundary of Donglan Mountain where they are located. This is a long distance.

The decision to go also comes with risks.

"Da Jun, Er Wei, what do you think?" Xu Rushan still couldn't make up his mind for a while and asked the two people on the side.

"Go." Xu Dajun said bluntly, with almost no hesitation.

Xu Erkai also nodded and said: "Although I don't want to leave our ancestral land in Xujia Village, but the current situation requires us to go."

It was obvious that both of them had already made up their minds, and there was no wavering in their hearts.

Xu Rushan looked at the other hunting captains.

"I also suggest going. I believe in Xiao An. He has helped the village save the day so many times. I think this time will be no exception." Xu Darong said first.

"It's just that if you decide to move the whole village, it's not easy to convince the villagers." Xu Xingzhi, who was standing by, saw that everyone had decided to go, and his will was a little shaken.

"I will lobby for this matter." Xu Rushan suddenly said.

As soon as these words came out, several people understood that Xu Rushan was planning to move the village.

"Please hurry up, so as not to stay too long and create side effects." He Ruoying reminded gently.

Xu Rushan nodded seriously.

Now that he has made a decision, he will not hesitate.

After the three parties made a decision, the conversation ended.

That night, Xu Rushan began to take Xu Erkai to do ideological work for the villagers.

In fact, this is not an easy task, especially some of the older generation of villagers who simply do not want to leave the place where they have spent most of their lives.

Even if Xu Erkai's words were ridiculous and he kept weighing the pros and cons to them, it would be of no avail.

A few villagers even blamed Xu Erkai and the others for forgetting their roots.

Fortunately, Xu Rushan had enough prestige accumulated in the village over the years, and the young villagers accepted it quickly. A few extremely stubborn old people could not affect the overall situation. In the end, the relocation of the village was finalized.

After finalizing the decision, the next day the villagers began to demolish their homes in large and small packages.

Both the Shen family and He Ruoying brought a large number of carriages for transporting goods, enough to evacuate the entire Xujia Village.

"What a pity." Xu Rushan, the old village chief, looked at the village that had been under construction for many years, with regret and reluctance in his heart.

Occasionally there were sobs in the village, which could be heard in every house. Many people's emotions towards their ancestral land were incomprehensible to others.

"Let's set off tomorrow morning." He Ruoying and Xu Rushan said.

Xu Rushan nodded. It was not difficult to evacuate the entire village in one day. After all, there was strength in numbers.

Suddenly, a villager from the hunting team ran back quickly, bringing bad news.

Zhangjia Village and Wujia Village in the Donglan Valley were suddenly captured by several cavalry teams. All supplies were looted and many villagers who resisted were killed.

As soon as the news came out, the entire Xujia Village was shocked.You must know that Zhangjiacun and Wujiacun occupy the geomantic treasure land of Donglan Valley. They have always been the two richest and strongest villages in their eastern suburbs. No ordinary bandits dare to invade there.

"How did you know about this?!" Xu Rushan asked quickly.

"It was said by a person from Zhangjia Village who escaped that the cavalry team were not bandits, but troops from Donglan Town, who were ordered to collect supplies from each village!" the villager continued.

"Such atrocities are really abominable!" Xu Rushan gritted his teeth after hearing this.

"It seems that it is right to withdraw. This place is already a land of tigers and wolves!"

After other villagers heard about this, they also made up their minds and no longer had any objections to leaving.

"The other party obviously knows that those two villages have the most wealth, but they may not take action against other villages next." He Ruoying couldn't help but said after hearing this from the sidelines.

On the other side, Shen Ting and Lu Qianhou came over after hearing the news.

They didn't want to cause trouble at this time and wanted to leave faster.

However, just when Xu Rushan was about to ask the villagers to speed up the cleaning up, the sound of gongs was heard from the sentry tower on the edge of the village.

The next moment, everyone heard the sound of the ground shaking.

People like Shen Ting who have higher levels of physical training can hear it more clearly. It is clearly the sound of horse hooves trampling on the ground.

"Trouble is coming!" Lu Qianhou sighed softly.

When everyone looked outside the village, they saw a group of cavalry galloping towards them.

The number is actually not many, just about a hundred.

Perhaps for them, dealing with a small village with weak defenses like Xujiacun, they can easily suppress it by just sending some good soldiers from the army.

However, they never expected how many masters could be hidden in such a little-known Xujiacun.

"Fortunately, there aren't many." Shen Ting glanced at them and said.

After all, these soldiers were just from a miscellaneous army. Although those who could serve as cavalry were elites, they were only the elites of a miscellaneous army, and their individual strength was not very high.

Shen Ting estimated that it would be good to have a body-refining cultivation level in the bone-strengthening realm.

"what?!"

The village was just around the corner, and the cavalry were originally planning to march straight in to wreak havoc, but ordinary village fences could not stop their cavalry charge.

However, Xujia Village has a thick mud wall, which makes it look different from other surrounding villages.

No matter how ferocious the horses under them were, they would not be able to smash the thick wall with their bodies.

I had no choice but to stop.

The leading general was about to use the banner of Donglan Town's official army to search for people's wealth and wealth.

Suddenly, they found that inside the mud wall, many people leaned out half of their bodies, holding bows and arrows, and fired arrows directly at the group of cavalry.

The arrows were like the wind, and under the covering blow, people fell over and screamed in agony.

This group of cavalry were all blinded. They never expected that the people in the village would dare to attack them before they started searching.

"You! Tricksters!"

That general had a Yi Jin level of cultivation strength, so he would not be unable to cope with this rain of arrows.

But the soldiers he brought behind him fell one by one, which made him furious.

He drew his knife and jumped up, ready to climb over the mud wall and start killing people.

However, he encountered several masters rising into the air to confront him.

It was not difficult to judge from the opponent's light body movements that the opponent was also a master of Yijin level, which shocked the general.

It's just a small village in the suburbs. There are only a few people in the Zhuanggu realm. How can there be so many Yijin level masters!
He glanced out of the corner of his eye, and what shocked him even more was that in addition to the few Yijin masters, there were also a large number of unidentified strong men gathered in the village.

He instantly realized that this time he had hit a brick wall.

It didn't take long for the cavalry team to be defeated by the masters of the Lu Family Swordsmanship Hall and the Shen Family. No one was able to escape.

This wave actually gave them dozens of additional war horses, which could carry more things.

There is never too much transportation such as horses. At any time, especially in war-torn times, they are hard currency and are very valuable.

"You have to leave today, otherwise there will be no news from this cavalry, and there will be more trouble coming." Shen Ting said.

"Okay." Xu Rushan nodded and decided to discard some unimportant things in the village.

After this incident, the village no longer had any objection to the relocation.

Many times, the seriousness of the situation is only realized when a disaster strikes.

In the afternoon, after cleaning up, the long team officially set off, with more than a thousand people in total and piles of supplies and miscellaneous items.

Zhang Yang has already provided He Ruoying with an extremely detailed map. Just follow the safe route on the map and you can reach Xianlin Town smoothly.

In one of the carriages, Feng Man, Xu Yaya and He Ruoying were sitting. Xu Xinnian and Xu Guping rode two assigned horses and followed the carriage on both sides, guarding against possible dangers around them.

Xu Guping looked calm and his eyes were sharp.

He has the experience of escorting escorts in a escort agency, and the matter of escorting a convoy is very familiar to him.

In this regard, even Xu Xinnian is not as experienced as his eldest son.

"Father, don't worry. There will be two groups of people from the Shen family and the Lu family escorting you along the way. Everything will be fine." Seeing that Xu Xinnian was still worried, Xu Guping couldn't help but said with relief.

He has experienced in Donglan Town, so he naturally knows how powerful these two groups of people are, especially the Shen family, which is the largest force in Donglan Town.

Xu Xinnian nodded, the bow and arrow in his hand loosened slightly, but he still shook his head and said: "This is a long journey, and there are too many uncontrollable variables along the way, so we must be careful."

This time was different from his usual hunting trips. He was accompanied by his family members, Feng Man and Xu Yaya.

Once he encounters a big danger, he must protect his wife and children.

Of course, in addition to the two of them, there is also a group of cultivators brought by He Ruoying, who are further on both sides, escorting them all the way.

For them, ensuring the safety of Xu Xinnian's family is the most important thing.

After all, this is the relative of their biggest boss behind the scenes, so they cannot be careless.

"Mom, I'm finally going to see my second brother. The second brother is so stinky that he hasn't come back to see us after being outside for so long."

In the carriage, Xu Yaya pouted and said.

Feng Man also had a smile on his lips. When he thought of being able to see Xu Guan, his thoughts about leaving his hometown became lighter.

He Ruoying was smiling at the side. In the past few days, she had explained many things about Xu Guan to Feng Man and the others.

Of course, Xu Xinnian's family exchanged letters with Xu Gu'an from time to time, and they knew many things about Xu Gu'an, including the fact that Xu Gu'an built a town.

It's just that it's not as detailed as He Ruoying knows.

It turns out that Xu Guan repeatedly asked them to live in his town, but they were reluctant to leave Xujia Village, so they did not agree.

But this time, I have to go even if I don’t want to go.
