Returning to the realm, Wei Yuan encountered two major events: the attack of the Wu Clan and Xiaoyu's preparations to go home for funeral.
The Wu clan has always been impatient, and they attacked again after only a few days. This attack was obviously just a test. They sent 20,000 soldiers to attack, 10,000 suppressed the formation, and 50,000 remained in the camp.
At this time, the above-ground part of the newly built city only had the outline of a city wall. There were less than 20,000 people in the city, and they were digging underground day and night. When the Wu Clan attacked, these people all returned underground according to the regulations that had been established long ago. Wei Yuan himself
Then he gathered his troops, pulled out ten thousand soldiers, and formed an array fifty miles behind the new city.
This time the Wu clan changed their tactics and sent ten thousand people to bypass the city and confront Wei Yuan's army, and then another ten thousand people entered the city and rushed directly underground.
This tactic was indeed beyond Wei Yuan's expectation. It seemed that the leader of the Wu Clan had quite an idea this time.
Wei Yuan made a prompt decision and immediately sent all his troops forward. At the same time, he ordered Cui Yu to lead five hundred Daoji monks to attack from the left, and fifty Zhantian thieves to attack from the right, and then activated all sentient beings.
Smoke suddenly rose on the battlefield, the roars became one, and the fire kept flickering in the smoke. The Wu soldiers fell in pieces, many of them didn't even know how they died. All the soldiers in the realm were now facing each other.
Shoot first, then talk about the rest.
When the roar finally became sparse and the smoke was blown away by magic, the generals of the Witch Army were shocked to find that 30% of their troops had suffered casualties! Seeing so many of their colleagues falling around them, the morale of the Witch Army was immediately shaken.
Wei Yuan did not give them a chance to organize his army. Yushan fell and opened a gap in the center of the Wu army's formation. He then led his troops to rush in, tearing apart the Wu army's formation in one fell swoop.
The witch army began to be confused, but behind them was the new city. They could only escape around the city. How could they escape?
The army was defeated like a mountain, and it didn't take long for the Wu clan's 10,000-strong army to be wiped out. However, the underground of the new city was still roaring, and white smoke was rising from the underground entrance.
Wei Yuan was about to lead his troops into the city and block all the Wu clan underground, when he saw another 20,000 witch troops appearing in the distance. Wei Yuan had to stop entering the city and instead confronted the Wu clan reinforcements.
The witch army that had invaded the city's underground got the order at this time and began to retreat to the ground. However, it was easy to enter the hole but difficult to get out. The underground pits extended in all directions, like a maze. A person would come out of nowhere, and then a musket would hit them.
, running away after a fight, which is quite devoid of martial ethics.
A full quarter of an hour passed before the witch army that had entered the ground finally retreated to the ground. Ten thousand soldiers went down, but only six thousand came out.
The Wu clan's troops moved out to pick up the remaining 6,000 soldiers. The great witch who was sitting looked at Wei Yuan from a distance and withdrew his troops back to the camp. Wei Yuan also retreated as soon as he saw the opportunity and watched the Wu clan go away.
For the Wu clan, this was a tentative attack, and all the soldiers sent out were ordinary soldiers, not the northern elites like last time.
Wei Yuan, on the other hand, used all his means, including the newly equipped muskets, and the fate of all sentient beings was not lost.
The underground part of the city is basically fought by a small number of Daoji and a large number of mortals. Even with the blessing of all sentient beings, the casualties are still close to 6,000. However, the vast majority of the injured are ordinary people who have not refined their bodies at all. In comparison, the witches
The casualties among the warriors trained by the tribe were close to 4,000, which was already considered a major defeat.
The battle on the ground was overwhelming. Wei Yuan used more than 500 Taoist monks. With the blessing of all sentient beings, the number of Taoist monks exceeded 1,500 in an instant. All of them were equipped with muskets, and Wei Yuan Yushan attacked and cleared the way. Finally, they were completely wiped out.
The opponent only managed to escape over a hundred people, while the casualties in the realm were only over two hundred.
This time the Witch Clan's temptation was a complete failure.
Just after the war, when Wei Yuan was still directing the cleaning of the battlefield, Xiaoyu came over. Wei Yuan originally wanted to persuade Xiaoyu to stay, but when he saw Xiaonian standing behind Xiaoyu, he changed his mind and told Xiaoyu to go back in peace and not to worry about it.
Things here.
Xiaonian, Zhang Sheng and Ji Liuli exchanged a few pleasantries and then released the flying boat. Just as they were about to board the boat and leave, Xiaoyu suddenly said: "Grandpa, you are already here, why don't you give Wei Yuan a little greeting gift?"
Xiaonian felt helpless and said: "I am easily criticized for giving too much stuff at this time. Well, I see that the jade mountain you just used contains the aura of the underworld, and there is also a small piece of underworld earth in Sun Yu's small courtyard. It just so happens.
I have something useful on hand, so I’ll give it to you.”
Xiaonian took out a box and handed it to Wei Yuan. Wei Yuan took it and his hand sank slightly. This small box actually weighed several hundred kilograms. When he opened it, he saw two apricot-sized things inside.
It's completely blue and has a shell on it. I don't know what it is.
Xiaonian said: "These are two seeds of Youmai, which I accidentally found when I was exploring the cave in the early years. The cave was broken, and most of the spiritual wheat originally planted died due to the influence of the aura from outside. Only these
One plant miraculously survives for thousands of years. I took a total of six seeds and gave some away over the years, but I still have these two."
"Lingmai was infected?" Wei Yuan asked, surprised and delighted.
Xiaonian nodded and said: "This can also be regarded as a kind of spiritual food. It was originally supposed to be of immortal quality, but the spiritual food grown contains a little bit of the power of eternal peace in the underworld, so you cannot eat more. Therefore, it was downgraded to the highest quality when it was divided."
"Thank you, senior!" Wei Yuan saluted solemnly. He was now particularly sensitive to everything that could be grown and eaten.
Xiaonian said: "It's not a good thing, so you're welcome."
Xiaoyu pulled Wei Yuan up and said: "It's really not a good thing, you're welcome!"
Wei Yuan was startled. The quality of these two seeds was one level higher than that of Solanum nigrum. This was not considered a good thing, so what was considered a good thing?
Xiaoyu looked like he hated iron, and stretched out his hand to make gestures on Wei Yuan and said: "Look, you don't even have any decent armor on your body. Your defense is all about thick skin and thick flesh, especially this face...
…” Wei Yuan was still moved at first, but when he heard it, something didn’t feel right.
Xiaonian picked up his grandson and stuffed him into the flying boat, saying, "It's time for us to leave."
Xiaoyu struggled and stretched out his head, shouting: "Keep Yong'an City Lord for me, I will come back!"
Wei Yuan nodded: "Don't worry! No one will rob you."
"Someone will rob me! You have to be careful about that girl Feng Tingyu, don't be seduced by her!"
Xiaonian pushed his grandson's head back and stepped into the flying boat. Then a halo of light appeared on the surface of the flying boat and flew away.
But the flying boat was not heading east or upward, but flying to the northwest where the Witch Realm was. Then a bright sword light of several hundred feet appeared across the sky, slashing hard into the void, and Xiaonian's majestic voice rang out from the sky and the earth: "
Who dares to stop my flying boat? Are you trying to deceive me into having no one in the Xiao family?"
A figure fell out of the void, its aura fluctuating, and the sword light slashed it a bit embarrassingly. The figure was blurry, and its identity was unknown. After being cut out by the sword, it turned around and left. The escape technique was extremely clever.
But Feizhou was hot on his heels, and sword rays hundreds of feet high came and went, chasing and slashing at the man.
Between heaven and earth, Xiaonian's voice sounded a little angry: "The thieves are so rampant, I have given in one after another, why are you still unwilling to get out of the way? What is the hatred between you and me that we must intercept and kill you halfway? I tell you, if you don't let me go,
I'm leaving, I'm going to fight back..."
One person and one boat are far away in an instant, and the sword light can be seen flashing at the end of the sky.
Zhang Sheng appeared next to Wei Yuan and said, "Have you learned?"
Wei Yuan was also deeply impressed and said: "This method of confusing right and wrong is really..."
Zhang Sheng hit him on the head and said: "His hands are rough and rough. Who asked you to learn this? What your teacher asked you to learn is to tell lies in front of hundreds of thousands of people across the realm.
, this kind of face that can still keep its expression unchanged and its heart not beat!"
Wei Yuan was silent, and then said: "It's really a bit shameful..."
"It's really shameful. That's why I let you learn as a teacher."
Xiaoyu left suddenly, but he had to go. The woman in palace clothes who came to protect Xiaoyu that day was very close to Xiaoyu. She died unexpectedly, so Xiaoyu had to go back to attend the funeral.
It's just that the attitude of the aristocratic family is subtle now. Once Xiaoyu leaves, I don't know when we will see each other again.
Things in this world are always filled with joy and sorrow, and blessings and misfortunes accompany each other.
Not long after Xiaoyu's flying boat disappeared, Wei Yuan's soul suddenly shook, and a spiritual energy spurted out from thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, like a fountain!
This piece of spiritual energy is quite abundant and has turned into a spiritual mist that never disperses. Wei Yuan entered the sea of ​​consciousness and found the place where the spiritual mist spewed out. It turned out to be a spiritual field where rice was grown! At this time, the land in this area among thousands of miles of rivers and mountains had become a continuous area.
, green plants sprouted from the ground, and rice grains the size of fists fell heavily.
Each fruit plant is spitting out spiritual energy. Although each plant is not much, a large piece together is quite impressive. This piece of rice that matured in advance shortened the speed of Wei Yuan's first stage of cultivation by a whole year.
.
But the spiritual plants in the Daoji looked different from the rice in the information. Wei Yuan withdrew from the sea of ​​consciousness and flew directly to the spiritual field where the rice was grown.
There is a huge spiritual field here, most of which are still green seedlings, but one corner is fully mature, and each plant is covered with light yellow rice seeds, each one the size of a fist.
This is the first 500 acres of rice planted by Wei Yuan. It should have been ten days before it matured, but now it has suddenly matured, and the rice grains are much larger than normal, and the color is also light yellow, not
Ordinary rice is red with a hint of yellow.
Wei Yuan picked off a rice kernel and peeled off the shell, revealing a light yellow rice grain inside. It was full and moist, and had unusually rich spiritual energy. Wei Yuan was a little surprised. Liang rice is the most common spiritual plant in the Western Regions, and it is also the most common spiritual plant in the Western Regions.
Indispensable rations. Wei Yuan himself had eaten countless meals. How had he ever seen such rice?
This rice is much larger than ordinary rice, and its spiritual energy content is twice as high. Although the spiritual energy in the rice is meager, it is not much higher if it is doubled, but if this is normal, it is not of this grade.
.
Suddenly a voice came from the side: "This grain of rice is really round and round, it is absolutely stunning!"
Wei Yuan turned around and saw a Taoist priest appearing beside him. He was staring at the rice in his hand, his eyes shining.
Chapter completed!
