Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 217 0216: Explain; return to the village!

"Xu Dong."

In the study, Cheng Zongyang made arrangements for him first and said:

“I will go back to the family in the next two days. I have handed over the affairs of the county to Zhou Zhendong. From now on, he will be the second owner and he will be in charge.

While I'm away, you will follow the Second Boss. Don't worry about the resources for martial arts training, I have already explained it, the Second Boss will arrange it. Don't fall behind in your martial arts training either."

Hearing this, Xu Dong didn't ask any more questions and said, "Yes, I will remember it."

Cheng Zongyang nodded slightly: "Of course, if you don't want to follow, you can also tell the second boss that you used to be a bodyguard, and the Tianduan Gang also needs bodyguards from the escort agency. You can choose for yourself."

Xu Dong did not hesitate and said quickly: "I'd better follow the Second Master. When you come back one day, I will follow you."

Cheng Zongyang smiled and said, "Just make your own choice."

"Yes, I'll take my leave then." Xu Dong happily bowed and left. For him, it didn't matter who he followed temporarily, as long as he could still follow him in the future.

After Xu Dong left, Cheng Zongyang looked at Ma Yue.

Cheng Zongyang said to Ma Yue: "The next thing will require you to work outside for a long time, or the previous things, are you willing?"

Ma Yue cupped his hands and said, "I will follow your orders, sir."

Cheng Zongyang pointed to a 30-centimeter-sized cubic wooden box beside the table and said:
"Inside are the things I prepared for you. There are elixirs to assist you in your cultivation, medicines to treat external and internal injuries, geomagnetic stone, silver, five-grain internal tonic pills, and three crystal stones, etc. You can take a look at them yourself later.

As usual, I need you to take the stone tablet to various places. Of course, I will also give you a feather of the fairy bird this time, and I will borrow the fairy bird from time to time to send some crystals to you.

When you have collected all the crystals, you can use the spirit bird to send them back. Also, the elixirs for auxiliary cultivation are enough for you to cultivate for one or two months. When you run out, you can write back and I will send them back to you. Do you understand?"

Ma Yue said: "I understand. I have done it before and I know the process."

Cheng Zongyang nodded: "Okay, then you go tomorrow. Your family doesn't need to worry. If you encounter a problem you can't handle on the way, just send a message back. If you are in danger and unable to move, let the fairy bird fly back, and I will know you are in danger. Most importantly, the feather must be kept close to you, because that is the only way to find you."

"Yes." Ma Yue wrote it down solemnly. Then he took the wooden box and opened it to take a look.

After Ma Yue understood everything, he left with the wooden box.

Cheng Zongyang leaned back in his chair slowly. This time when he returned to the village, he had to deal with Chen Kaishan's affairs. As for the rest, if there was nothing serious, he would stay in the village for a while and take the opportunity to explore the wilderness world.

Therefore, he needed Ma Yue to go to various places to continue collecting and upgrading the soul-collecting monuments in preparation for the future protection of the village.

The three years of severe drought last year caused countless deaths and injuries in various places, coupled with the impact of wars in various places, which was enough for the Soul Gathering Monument to absorb.

He was also looking forward to seeing to what extent the soul-gathering monument, which absorbed a large number of souls from all over the place, would be upgraded.

After these three things were arranged, Cheng Zongyang basically had little personal work to do. The remaining time was spent on dealing with other small matters. At least some medicines had to be supplied in sufficient quantities, and there were some protective measures and so on.

He also left one elf bird for Zhou Zhendong so that he could contact him at any time.

As time entered June, on the first day of the new month, Li Xian brought good news to Cheng Zongyang.

After dealing with his father's funeral, Lu Wushuang agreed to join the Tianduan Gang and take over the Zhenwu Hall and become the head of the Zhenwu Hall.

Although Cheng Zongyang was happy about this, it was also within his expectations.

It's nothing, Lu Wushuang is a smart woman. After Li Xian told her the pros and cons, as long as she is not confused, she will weigh the pros and cons and know what is better for her.

He told Li Lu that Lu Wushuang would be given a lot of benefits, not only cultivation resources, but also the people of the former Lu family would be handed over to her for management. He also allowed her to restore the Lu family's presence in the west of the city, but the Lu family was just an ordinary small family, not at all comparable to the past.

Cheng Zongyang met Lu Wushuang in person. Lu Wushuang didn't say anything else, but said that he would use actions to win over the people in Zhenwu Hall without them having to show up.

Cheng Zongyang is even more supportive of this.

So, after all the challenges that day, a sixteen-year-old girl, with her ninth-grade martial arts skills, defeated all the people in Zhenwu Hall and forced them to submit.

Of course, this was also due to the different lengths of training time between the two sides. After all, the original members of Zhenwu Hall had only recently broken through and had not practiced martial arts for a long time, so they would not be Lu Wushuang's opponents.

But since everyone was convinced, Li Lu announced the decision. Lu Wushuang also officially became the head of Zhenwu Hall.

The next day, at the threshing ground in Tianduan Village.

As the tasks at hand were basically handed over and explained, Cheng Zongyang was also ready to go back through the underground passage.

Li Lu and others also knew about the Tianduan Gang's passage, but they did not know that it led to Chengjia Village. They only knew that it was a transit passage to other places.

One is to ensure the confidentiality of goods transactions, and the other is to facilitate the entry and exit of goods.

When Li Lu learned from Cheng Zongyang that this passage was dug by that force, he was shocked. But he was also very tactful and did not ask more about this passage.

All I know is that when goods need to be transported in the future, they will be sent to this warehouse, and the gang disciples will be responsible for delivering them to the transit area in the middle.

Today, there was no one else here, only Li Lu and Zhou Zhendong came to see him off, and only a few people knew that Cheng Zongyang had returned. To the outside world, it was said that Cheng Zongyang was in seclusion.

Cheng Zongyang said to Zhou Zhendong, "I'll leave the affairs here to you. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Boss Li and the other two. I'll also leave the elf bird to you. If you really encounter any emergency, you can send a message back."

Zhou Zhendong nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you down."

Cheng Zongyang smiled and said, "It's not that I'm disappointed, but I won't disappoint my uncle. You are also the eldest son of the second branch of the Zhou family, and you will also shoulder the responsibilities of the Zhou family in the future. These are your experiences."

After saying that, he looked at Li Lu and said, "Brother Li, please bear with me."

Li Lu nodded and smiled: "Don't worry, I understand."

Now he is a seventh-rank warrior. Although all the energy is accumulated by drugs, as long as the digestion consolidates the foundation of Qi and blood, there is basically no impact.

As for Zhou Zhendong, he was also close to reaching the seventh level. After all, he was using body-building drugs and pills, so his speed was naturally not slow.

After saying this briefly, Cheng Zongyang waved to the two of them and then entered the underground passage.

In the future, the underground passage will be covered with a heavy wooden door, which can be opened when needed and closed when not needed.

Cheng Zongyang walked down. There were oil lamps in the passage, so it didn't seem dim.

He walked all the way over, and then to the transfer area, and immediately saw people still cleaning up the dirt. The mole beast had already cleared out the required area, and the next step was to clean up the dirt.

When the twenty or so people present saw Cheng Zongyang, they all bowed and greeted him.

Cheng Zongyang has placed ten geomagnets here. It is impossible for anyone without a stone skin purse to enter here, and they cannot withstand the influence of the ten geomagnets.

These villagers who were clearing the soil were carrying these pouches.

Leaving the transit area and entering the passage towards Chengjia Village is much faster than going up the mountain before.

As I walked along, I looked at these oil lamps and realized that these tung oil and other things consumed a lot of energy, but there was no other way to light, so I had to do this.

Unless you can find some grease that is more resistant to burning, you will have to add it from time to time.

"I wonder if there is this kind of burn-resistant grease in the wilderness?"

It was a quiet journey all the way to Chengjia Village, and it only took about two quarters of an hour.

This is much faster than the previous time when it took more than an hour to walk.

Entering the warehouse passage of Chengjia Village, the two guards on duty were delighted when they saw that the person coming out was Cheng Zongyang who had not been back for a long time. They immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Young Clan Leader! You are back."

They were also happy after not seeing each other for a month or two.

Similarly, some villagers who were carrying rice to the warehouse saw Cheng Zongyang coming back and shouted, "Young Chief is back." Suddenly, more and more villagers came in from outside, and Cheng Zongyang was surrounded by them.

They were grateful and respectful to Cheng Zongyang from the bottom of their hearts. Finally, under Cheng Zongyang's persuasion, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Outside the warehouse, Cheng Zongyang also discovered that Chengjia Village was now under construction everywhere. It was obviously a brand new construction, and he also realized that the villagers just now were people working on the road nearby.

"Dad, second uncle, eldest uncle, youngest uncle!"

Cheng Zongyang also saw the four elders coming out from the warehouse.

"Is everything arranged over there?" Cheng Guanghai asked with a smile.

"It's arranged." Cheng Zongyang nodded and looked at his uncle: "Brother Zhendong is making rapid progress, and with the help of others, there will basically be no problems."

Zhou Hanchang smiled when he heard this: "As long as it doesn't cause any trouble."

"Let Zong Yang wash up first, and then go home to talk. Don't stand here." Zhou Hansong also said with a smile.

Cheng Zongyang followed a few elders and left the warehouse.

The warehouse was a new foundation with crisscrossing lines, which would be the new residential area for the villagers. The surrounding mountains were flattened and widened, and the area was not small.

This was not designed by Cheng Zongyang, but was improved and modified by everyone based on the original draft left by Cheng Zongyang, and it was mainly centered around this river channel.

As Cheng Zongyang listened to his father describe the new construction plan, he quickly outlined the new layout of Chengjia Village in his mind.

After crossing the bridge, there were even more people on this side. When the villagers saw Cheng Zongyang, they also greeted him and Cheng Zongyang responded one by one.

The Cheng family’s new home was planned to be in an area, and he also met his mother, aunt, second aunt and others.

Seeing her son, Cheng Zhou was naturally excited. Everyone started to ask about his health, saying that he had become thinner, taller, and stronger.

Cheng Zongyang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He had only been away for a month or two, how could the changes be so great?
But there is a kind of love that comes from when a mother notices that you have lost weight, and then she starts preparing dinner in the evening.

Cheng's father and others just smiled and didn't stop them.

At this time, Cheng Zongliang, Cheng Zongyun, Cheng Zongwen, Zhou Zhenyuan and other brothers and sisters all ran back from school and other places.

For a moment, the courtyard of this old house became extremely lively.

Several elders also temporarily put down their work and started chatting in the courtyard.

The two old people look very good and are still in good health.

The brothers and sisters had basically not changed much, but their spirits were obviously much stronger, which showed that the medicinal bath and basic training for their foundation building had begun to show feedback changes.

This made Cheng Zongyang very satisfied. When they started to strengthen their bodies after the age of fifteen, their progress was definitely not comparable to that of ordinary geniuses.

After everyone chatted for a while, several elders learned the basic situation outside from Cheng Zongyang.

When the Cheng family settles down completely in the future, it will not be a problem for them to live in the county town for some time.

"Brother, how long will you stay this time?"

The little girl Cheng Zongyun hugged Cheng Zongyang's neck and asked with a smile.

Cheng Zongyang sat on the small stool, letting his little sister hug his neck, and asked with a smile: "How long do you want your brother to stay?"

"I don't know. Mom and Dad both said you were busy." The girl said sullenly, her little face pressed against Cheng Zongyang's face.

Cheng Zongyang patted her little head lovingly and said with a smile, "Then I'll stay a little longer and tell you a story, and then you can tell it to your sisters and brothers, okay?"

"Okay." The little girl nodded happily: "Then tell me tonight, okay?"

"Okay." Cheng Zongyang smiled.

The little girl immediately ran happily to find her brothers and sisters.

After several elders went about their business, Cheng Zongyang called his younger brother Cheng Zongliang.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Cheng Zongliang came to his elder brother and asked curiously.

Cheng Zongyang pointed to the small stool beside him and said, "After he sat down,
"Dad has already told me that you have worked very hard during the time I was away. It's all for this family. As the eldest brother, I am very happy."

Cheng Zongliang scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly. What no one knew was that he was just being urged to study by his two fiancées. Otherwise, he would have no motivation.

Cheng Zongyang smiled and continued, "You are already twelve years old. You will be able to practice in three years. But now, there is something I want to entrust to you. Do you want to do it? If you do it well, you will be one of the best in our family in the future."

He knows very well what children of this age want, they want to be recognized and praised, and they are easily carried away by passion.

Simply put, it is easy to fool.

"What's the matter?" Cheng Zongliang raised his head. He was one of the best, and seemed very powerful.

"I'm going to set up an intelligence department. I've found the first candidate. He's about your age. We'll recruit all the orphans in the county. In the future..."

Cheng Zongyang then told him his plan, including Skynet, departments, personnel, martial arts, and so on.

After listening to this, Cheng Zongliang scratched his head and said, "Brother, I don't quite understand. Can you explain it more simply?"

Cheng Zongyang was speechless, but after thinking for a while, he said, "Just find a group of kids, train them and make them people who can get information, and you can be their leader."

"Oh~" Cheng Zongliang understood immediately: "It's just eavesdropping. Just like Brother Zhennan, it seems that there is nothing in the village that he doesn't know."

As he spoke, Cheng Zongyang looked confused, and Cheng Zongliang counted his little fingers like a treasure, saying:
"Auntie Caihua has bad legs and feet. They hurt when it rains, and she scolds her husband when it hurts. Guan the butcher likes to eat chicken butts and always eats them secretly in the middle of the night. Commander Zhang's son Zhang Yongkun likes Zhang Caiyi and often goes to see her, but her brother Zhang Xiang finds out and beats him up..."

"Stop, stop, stop..." Cheng Zongyang found this quite interesting, so he interrupted him and asked, "How do you know Zhennan knows this?"

Cheng Zongliang chuckled: "Me, Brother Zhennan, and Brother Zhenqi, the three of us are often together. He told me so."

Cheng Zongyang thought about it. He also knew Zhou Zhennan. This guy was also a troublesome person. He often stole things when he was a child. He stopped after being punished, but he also liked to fight.

Later, everyone lived together, and with the help of the foundation-building training plan and physical fitness training plan formulated by Cheng Zongyang, he gradually settled down.

But I never thought that this kid still couldn't stay still.

But it must be said that Zhou Zhennan's personality is indeed suitable for doing this kind of thing, but it is also not suitable for doing it.

If you want to be a leader, you need to be smart and adventurous, but you also need to be calm and composed and know how to use your brain.

He didn't know Zhou Zhennan that well, but fortunately they were young and could be trained.

"You just said that the three of you often go together to eavesdrop and steal things?"

Cheng Zongliang immediately took two steps back and shook his head like a rattle, fearing that his elder brother would beat him, and hurriedly explained:

"No, no. I just walk around the village often, and then I heard some things. As for stealing chickens and dogs, that's impossible. The chicken farm, sheep farm, and cattle farm are all watched, so we don't stand a chance. There are also those few dogs in the village, what's the point of touching them."

Cheng Zongyang was immediately amused: "Is this how you understand it?"

But he didn't pursue the matter, saying, "I'll talk to you three once I perfect my plan. Go do your thing."

"Oh."

Seeing that he was not beaten, Cheng Zongliang breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ran away.
