There were more than a dozen people, including men and women. The oldest was only twenty-four or five years old, and the youngest was only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Here, thirteen or fourteen can already start a family and start a business.

Their cultivation levels also range from high to low.

The high ones are already martial arts masters and mage, and the low ones are no more than third blood, or even second blood.

"I've met Mr. Fang!"

Everyone saluted in unison.

"Um."

Fang Zheng nodded, glanced at everyone and spoke slowly:

"You should know that in Gu'an County, Fang can still protect you a little bit. If you work hard, you can have food and clothing without worries. Outside there is war and chaos and bandits are rampant. If you are not careful, you may be in danger of death."

"You are young, and you should be the children of your parents. Why do you go out and take risks, risking your life and death?"

"Master Fang." One person came out of the queue with fists clasped and replied:

"The world is in chaos. This is a great opportunity for us to serve the imperial court and make a bright future. How can we miss it?"

"Ha..." Fang Zheng chuckled and shook his head, but did not try to persuade him any more.

He has also come step by step from ordinary people, and knows how difficult it is for people without inheritance and background to get closer.

Troubled times,

For ordinary people, it is impossible to avoid.

For some, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Just like the inheritance of high-level martial arts, ordinary people would not have the opportunity to come into contact with it in ordinary times.

now,

As long as you make military exploits, you will be rewarded.

Even if you are lucky enough, you can get the guidance of a good teacher and the help of elixirs, and you have a chance to soar into the sky.

There is nothing Founder can do about this.

It is true that he is rich, but he is already struggling to maintain thousands of elite soldiers. He also has a family of children to take care of, and he has no extra resources to share with others.

"you!"

His eyes fell on a person in the field, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand and pointed:

"Your name is Xu Ji, right?"

"Yes." A young man of fifteen or sixteen years old took a step forward, with a look of ecstasy on his face, and cupped his fists and raised his hands:

"I didn't expect Master Fang to still remember the villain."

"Haha..." Fang Zheng smiled and said:

"I remember that you were with Fang Heng for a while. Is the Xu family still missing your food?"

"This..." Xu Ji looked embarrassed and replied:

"I plan to go out and make my own adventure. It's not an option for a man to rely on his family all the time."

Fang Zheng nodded.

The Xu family is considered a wealthy family in Gu'an County, so logically they would not let their descendants go out to take risks.

It seems that

What happened to Xu Ji.

Maybe it was a fight within the family, maybe it was some other reason, but in short he was kicked out.

Fang Zheng was not interested in this, but was interested in Xu Ji.

"Good luck!"

As early as a dozen people entered the hall, Fang Zheng used the celestial compass to deduce their future.

Most of them are riddled with death energy and are facing many disasters.

Only Xu Ji and another young man with a simple and honest appearance turned out to be a good omen.

Xu Ji.

It’s even more auspicious!

There is the appearance of a fish leaping over a dragon's gate.

"You can be loyal to the state affairs and not afraid of life and death, which is rare and valuable." Fang Zheng turned his head and said:

"But this trip is dangerous, so be careful."

"so……"

He waved to Shangguan Duozhao on the side:

"Give each of them ten taels of silver and go to the warehouse to choose a weapon. Treat it as a gift from Fang."

"Yes." Shangguan Duo bowed in response.

When the dozen or so people below heard this, their faces became even more happy, and they hurriedly thanked them:

"Thank you, Mr. Fang!"

"Thank you, Master Fang!"

"Father." At this time, Fang Ping'an, who had been guarding the main hall, whispered:

"I also want to go to Fucheng."

"Um?"

Fang Fang's expression darkened:

"Nonsense!"

"Why are you going to Fucheng? There is a war and chaos there. Do you want to imitate your brother and make your family afraid?"

"No." Fang Ping'an's expression changed and he said:

"I have a few friends in Fucheng, and I don't plan to fight with others. I will leave after saving people."

"friend?"

Fang Zheng frowned. Fang Pingan's personality was different from Fang Heng's, and he didn't have so many friends around him.

Being treated as a friend by him is a true friend.

but……

"no!"

He categorically rejected:

"Some things are not something you can do just because you don't want to. Once you leave Gu'an County, you won't be able to control your own life or death."

"Father!" Fang Ping'an gritted his steel teeth and said:

"I really...can't go if I don't!"

"You!" Fang Zheng was furious, and the anger was rising in his heart. It took decades of self-cultivation to suppress it.

"What? Are you disobedient too?"

Fang Pingan lowered his head and said nothing.

"..."

Fang Zheng looked sideways, his expression serious.

"That's it!"

a long time.

He just waved his hand, and his will suddenly became extremely depressed:

"You can't stay here even when you're old!"

"If you want to leave, take Lu Zhi with you and the things I prepared for you. Remember to go to the little princess if anything happens."

Um?

Before he finished speaking, the Tianji Compass suddenly trembled, which seemed to indicate something.

"yes!"

Fang Pingan was overjoyed:

"Thank you father!"

"When we arrive at Zhaonan Mansion, I will go to Princess Aunt Shu to report first. I will never act rashly."

Fang Zheng shook his head.

The reason why he agreed was that through the Tianji Compass deduction, Fang Ping'an's trip was safe without any danger.

Secondly, he knew his son's character. Although he seemed calm, he was actually stubborn.

If you don't let him go, he might go secretly. This is just as worrying as Fang Heng, so just let him go.

also.

He left some life-saving charms for Fang Pingan, which he bought at a huge cost, so that he could have a chance to escape when he met a real person.

Anyway.

Since you can't stop it, you might as well agree to it.

"Go!"

Fang Zheng sat down slumped and waved his hands helplessly:

"Reply your letters frequently and don't worry your family."

"yes."

Fang Ping'an bowed in response and slowly retreated.

Not long after.

When Shangguan Duo came forward to report, he found that the young man had already obtained weapons and silver and was heading towards the city.

"Young man, full of energy."

Fang Zheng opened his mouth:

"They have been in troubled times since they were born, and they are used to fighting and killing. They dare to fight and fight hard, unlike us who seek stability."

"fair enough……"

He leaned back:

"If we form a good relationship now, if someone can find a way out in the future, it will be a good thing for Gu'an County."

"This world belongs to young people after all."

"Yes." Shangguan Duowen heard Xian Zhi's intention, cupped his hands and said:

"My subordinates will keep an eye on them and provide help if necessary."

"Um."

Fang Zheng nodded.

Shortly after.

News from the front line is coming one after another.

The two forces that were once at war with each other, Princess Qingyuan and Sanxian Village, formed an alliance, which was obviously beyond the Nie family's expectation.

Facing the incoming army, the Nie family's sphere of influence has shrunk rapidly, and they are currently clinging to the city.

Following Li Yingxuan's call, volunteers from all over the country joined the team.

Except Gu'an County,

Yuan Zhongdao also couldn't bear the loneliness, so he led 300 private soldiers to participate in the war, and gradually gained some fame.

Early June,

The two armies formed an encirclement and approached Zhaonan Mansion.

The end of the month.

The war is approaching the ten-mile boundary of Zhaonan Mansion. A real person causes an earthquake, changes the river course, and traps thousands of troops.

Mid-July.

Sanxianzhuang's team first appeared under the city wall of Fucheng and launched a probing attack towards Zhaonan Mansion.

Late July.

The two teams gathered together and the offensive became urgent.

"According to rumors."

"In mid-August, the Xuanhuo Hall disciples who had been recaptured by the Nie family suddenly broke out in turmoil within the city."

"The master of the hall, Ananda Tu, became a martial sect at some point. He chopped up two streets with his two swords and almost broke the city gate."

"Then..."

"The ancestor of the Nie family, who had been dead for many years, appeared and suppressed Ananda alive with extremely powerful magic."

"If Princess Qingyuan hadn't rescued him in time, Ananda wouldn't have been able to escape even if he was a Wuzong."

"It is said."

"Princess Qingyuan secretly subdued Xuanhuo Hall long ago, and Ananda was able to achieve martial arts with her help. This time, she sneaked into Zhaonan Mansion to cooperate with others. Unfortunately, she did not expect that the ancestor of the Nie family was not dead yet, so her success fell short. However, it also exposed the Nie family’s trump card, and even more holes appeared in the city’s defense.”

A lot of news came one by one.

Fang Zheng rubbed his chin.

The Xuanhuotang who caused the trouble turned out to be a member of Princess Qingyuan. No wonder they were never completely killed.

Isn't this a threat to one's self-respect?

Um……

When he killed Luhua Fairy of the Luofu Immortal Sect, Li Yingxuan wrote to ask about it, and he used the excuse of Ananda Tu.

Now it seems,

Li Yingxuan was afraid that he was laughing at himself.

"Ancestor of the Nie family..."

"She must be over three hundred years old, right?"

"Yes." Shangguan Duo nodded:

"Three hundred and seventeen years old, a real life span is three hundred, but there are many secret techniques and elixirs that can extend life span."

"Although people who live more than three hundred years are rare, they are not unheard of."

"More than three hundred years old!" Fang Zheng sighed:

"The accumulation of mana alone is extremely terrifying. I'm afraid no one in the land can be his opponent."

"Not entirely so." Shangguanduo said:

"According to the news from earlier, although Princess Qingyuan is no match for the ancestors of the Nie family, she can still protect herself."

"There was even the Iron Flute Immortal who drove back the Nie family's pursuing troops, so that the Nie family ancestors did not dare to act rashly."

"Iron Flute Fairy?"

Fang Zheng shook his head.

This is not good news. If the other party's beloved disciple dies in his hands, he may not take revenge in the future.

"Young Master Ping'an is currently obeying orders under the princess's tent. Because he is a mage, he is sitting at the rear, so he is safe and sound."

"also."

Shangguan Duo continued:

"The Nie family has a female war goddess who leads nearly ten thousand soldiers on a rampage. No one can stop her in the battle formation."

"Even Wuzong and Zhenren can't match his sharpness."

"In the past few months, Nie Shensha came out of Zhaonan Mansion five times, killing and injuring nearly ten thousand people. No one, including Sanxian Manor and the princess, could do anything about it."

"oh!"

Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Yang Meng.

"My lord."

Yang Meng handed over:

"From the news, Nie Shensha's battle formation must be the Nine Nether Soldiers Formation. This battle formation can use the resentment and obsession of the dead to evolve thousands of ghost soldiers, and even establish a new underworld. It is the top battlefield for killing. Law."

"Recently, there have been many casualties in Zhaonan Mansion, and the resentment has been building up. It is indeed difficult to resist the Jiuyou army together."

The battle formation gathers the strength of ten thousand people, and the formation together suppresses mana and true energy, and even the energy of heaven and earth can be suppressed.

Wu Zong and Zhenren couldn't imagine facing the battle formation.

It can be said.

The reason why Zhaonan Mansion has been able to persist for so long without being broken is indispensable to Nie Shensha's Nine Nether Soldier Formation.

"Where are you?" Fang Zheng said:

"How does it compare to the way of fighting?"

"Now she is not as good as me." Yang Meng said:

"From now on, I won't be as good as her."

Founder is clear.

Yang Meng is already in his fifties or sixties, and the number of private soldiers in the Fang Mansion is limited. If the two are opponents, they can still win based on experience and cultivation, but their future growth potential is far inferior to Nie Shensha.

"My lord."

Yang Meng spoke seriously:

"We, the generals, can use the battlefield to temper our bodies and enhance our cultivation. Nie Shensha is now in perfect condition."

"If she advances to Wuzong, and there are more than ten thousand elite soldiers on her side, the princess and Sanxian Village will be killed and dispersed."

"She has sent out troops one after another in the past few months to hone herself. Don't underestimate this woman. She is probably the biggest variable in this battle."

Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows.

Accustomed to fighting alone, he always ignored the power of military formations.

really.

Now that Nie Shensha is flawless, she can force the two forces not to dare to confront each other head-on. If she becomes the Wuzong...

Who can defeat it?

wrong!

The little princess Li Shu is also familiar with military battle formations, and in terms of cultivation, she is stronger than Yang Meng and Nie Shensha.

Why didn't she take action?

Could it be that Li Yingxuan was guarding his sister?

"correct."

Shangguan Duo remembered something and said with a smile:

"There is an interesting rumor about this female war goddess of the Nie family. It is said that her sweetheart is the boy who raises horses in the family. The boy's name is Sun Huaian. Although he is from a humble background, he is extremely handsome. Nie Shensha is her He did not hesitate to ruin the engagement made by the Nie family, and almost turned against his family."

"That boy is also in the military tent. The two are not married yet, but they already live in the same military tent."

Yang Meng shook his head when he heard this.

Fang Zheng just chuckled lightly.

I don't know whether these rumors are true or not, and even if they are true, it doesn't matter. As long as you are strong enough, you can do whatever you want.

"Report!"

Someone outside the hall reported:

"Qian Buyu from Wanbao Pavilion came to ask for an audience."

Wanbao Pavilion?

Wanbao Pavilion is not only a merchant, but also the money bag of Xuan Tiandao, the No. 1 sect in the world.

What are the people from the Qian family doing at this time?

Fang Zheng was thoughtful:

"Let him in."

"yes!"

…………

Qian Buyu has gray hair and should be in his sixties or seventies, but he is still full of energy.

After entering the palace, he cupped his fists and raised his hands:

"Qian, I have met Daxia Fang."

"sit."

Fang Zheng stretched out his hand to signal:

"A rare visitor, Brother Qian actually came to Gu'an County. Could it be that he wants to buy some square porcelain and cloth?"

"I do have this idea. Square porcelain porcelain is a hot commodity no matter where it goes." Qian Buyu nodded and said:

"Of course, Qian has other important things to do here."

"Oh!" Fang Zheng said:

"tell me the story."

"Qian was entrusted by Palace Master Nie and came to ask for help." Qian Buyu straightened his face, stood up and held his hands in his hands:

"Due to being framed by evildoers, the Nie family is now in a critical situation. I hope that Hero Fang can help."

"Afterwards, the Nie family is willing to give generous gifts. From now on, the three counties of Gu'an, Santai and Wuqing will be owned by Fang Daxia."

"Sorry." Fang Zheng shook his head:

"Fang is just a rich man from the countryside. He is unable to help the Nie family. He is content to be able to hold on to Gu'an County."

"Brother Qian..."

"Is it possible that the Qian family has surrendered to the Nie family?"

"I am dissatisfied with Fang Daxia. How can the Qian family do business in Fucheng without the support of the Nie family?" Qian Buyu shook his head:

"If there was any other way, Qian wouldn't want to go deep into it."

"Yeah?"

Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes:

"Wanbao Pavilion, it depends on the Nie family's face."

Wanbao Pavilion represents Xuantian Dao.

Although the court is currently in turmoil, Xuantian Dao's reputation as the number one sect in the world has not been lost.

Wei Boyang, the master of Xuantian Dao, is a terrifying existence who can aspire to be the 'number one master' in the practice world.

"Wanbao Pavilion..."

Qian Buyu shook his head.

Xuan Tiandao has Wanbao Pavilions all over the world, and the Qian family is in charge of Zhaonan Mansion. Unfortunately, it has not been managed well in recent years.

He is not welcomed in Taoist sect.

Moreover, the Qian family's backer in Xuan Tiandao has fallen, and life has become increasingly difficult. They have long been dissatisfied with the glory of more than ten years ago.

"Master Fang."

After thinking for a while, Qian Buyu spoke:

"You also know that the Qian family is engaged in the business of Wanbao Pavilion. I wonder if you are interested in selling the magic weapon of the crazy Taoist?"

"Huh?" Fang Zheng's eyes flashed and he said with a smile:

"So Brother Qian is waiting for me here."

"Not bad." Qian Buyu didn't deny it, nodded and said:

"Qian came here. Firstly, he was entrusted by Palace Master Nie to ask for the support of Hero Fang. Secondly, someone wanted the Qingsuo Sword of Mad Taoist."

Qingsuo sword!

The best magic weapon, a protective tool for crazy Taoists.

This sword is extremely sharp and powerful. If it falls into the hands of a real person who is good at wielding a sword, its strength will be doubled.

When the crazy Taoist wielded this sword, he almost escaped through the battle formation.

"Fang is not good at wielding a sword, so it would be a waste if the Qingsuo sword fell into my hands."

Fang Zheng touched his chin and replied:

"If the price is right, it's not impossible to sell it."

"really?"

Qian Buyu was overjoyed when he heard this.
