Chapter 152: Qingming Mountain
"Your Highness, since you want to find a place to build a villa in the Silver Moon Mountains, but now the peaks of the Silver Moon Mountains are basically completely occupied, I'm afraid it won't be easy to find." Lu Yongchang reminded again.
When Xiang Yun heard the words, he understood the hidden meaning.
"City Lord Lu, you have been the city lord of Qin Feng City for more than ten years. You must be more familiar with the Silver Moon Mountains than I am. If there is a suitable place for me to build a separate garden, you can give me some suggestions."
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Lu Yongchang waved his hands repeatedly.
"Your Highness, since you want to listen to my opinion, I can give you some suggestions. If you really want to find a mountain range where you can build a separate garden, then this should be the best location."
Then he rolled up his sleeves with one hand, moved his fingers on the map, followed the mountains and rivers, and pointed to the map, in the Silver Moon Mountains, to the southwest, a towering peak surrounded by mountains!
"Your Highness, look at this mountain peak!"
Xiang Yun lowered his head and took a closer look, only to see where Lu Yongchang pointed, a solitary peak standing alone. It was much higher than the other peaks. It was quite majestic and majestic. The mountain was famous, and it was called "Qingming".
"Qingming Mountain!" Xiang Yun's eyes lit up, and he felt that this mountain was very good both in terms of shape and location.
"Eh... why is there no sect in Qingming Mountain?" Xiang Yun took a closer look and suddenly discovered an important problem.
Lu Yongchang's relatively fair face showed a unique and honest smile: "Your Highness, this Qingming Mountain is an unowned land, so the official said that this is just the right place for you to build a villa!"
"How is this possible? This mountain is so majestic and the location is perfect. I'm afraid these sect mansions have already been taken over. "
Lu Yongchang smiled and shook his head.
"Your Highness, your words are wrong. This Qingming Mountain is not a place that must be fought over. Instead, it is like a worthless place that is tasteless and it is a pity to abandon it."
"Oh... why is this?" Xiang Yun was a little confused, how could such a beautiful mountain become useless.
Lu Yongchang patiently explained: "Your Highness is unaware that there are two reasons why Qingming Mountain is still an ownerless land."
"Oh..." Xiang Yun listened softly.
"First, although Qingming Mountain is located in the center of the Silver Moon Mountains, it seems that the stars and the moon are extremely beautiful. However, the real situation is that, for some unknown reason, the cloud power here is unusually thin, just like ordinary places under the mountain.
.”
"What these forces on the mountain focus on is geomantic treasures. Places where winds and energy are stored and where the power of clouds are abundant are the best. Therefore, this place is by no means a treasured place for them."
"The second point is also a very important reason. Your Highness, please take a look. In the three directions of Qingming Mountain, there are clearly three sects!"
After Xiang Yun heard this, he noticed that there were three sects on three sides of Qingming Mountain, namely "Xuelong Gate, Tongling Gate, and Hehuan Gate".
When Xiang Yun saw this, his heart suddenly moved and he understood.
There are four major sects in the Silver Moon Mountains, namely the Blood Shadow Palace, the Snow Dragon Gate, the Psychic Sect, and the Hehuan Sect. Qingming Mountain is backed by the Silver Moon Forest, and is surrounded by three of the four major sects on three sides.
Qingming Mountain is like being surrounded by tigers and wolves, and being in the middle of a tiger's den.
I wonder which sect is not smart enough to build a sect mansion among these three major sects?
Even if others don't take care of you, you will be worried day and night. If you accidentally provoke one of the forces, it may immediately bring disaster.
When Lu Yongchang saw Xiang Yun's expression, he knew that Xiang Yun had figured out the reason, and he said with a smile.
"Your Highness, this Qingming Mountain is definitely not a good place for others, but it is the same for you. You are just building a villa and do not participate in the struggle among the forces on the mountain. Your requirements for Yunli are not high.
It is naturally appropriate to build a separate garden in it."
Xiang Yun nodded in agreement on his face, but he was secretly struggling in his heart. He was not building some villa, but really wanted to establish a sect.
It would not be a good thing if it was built on Qingming Mountain and directly surrounded by the three major local snakes in the Silver Moon Mountains.
After thinking about it, Xiang Yun finally thanked Lu Yongchang in advance and planned to take the map back and refer to it slowly.
Lu Yongchang seemed to cherish this map very much. When he put it away, he rubbed the map with his hands as if to dust it off, then slowly rolled it up, wrapped it and placed it in a cylinder.
Only then was it handed over to Xiang Yun.
"Your Highness, I don't know when you will set off to inspect the mountains on the spot. I can send someone to follow Your Highness."
"No need, City Lord Lu, I have to thank you very much today. If it weren't for your map, I would have spent a lot of effort." Xiang Yun cupped his fists and thanked Lu Yongchang.
"Haha... Your Highness is welcome, this is what a lower official should do."
At that moment, Xiang Yun walked out of the attic with Lu Yongchang with the map and returned to the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion. City Lord Lu persuaded the two to stay for lunch before leaving. Unable to refuse the kindness, Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu stayed.
This time, it was no longer Lu Yongchang's concubine Lan'er who was accompanying them. According to City Lord Lu, Lan'er had gone back to her hometown to visit her relatives. The person sitting at the table with everyone was Lu Yongchang's first wife, Xiong.
Although this was not the first time for Xiang Yun and the others to see Lu Yongchang, the principal wife, when they saw the latter, they couldn't help but swallowed dryly.
Lu Yongchang's wife Xiong, who lives up to her surname, has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, leopard eyes and jaws, and is even taller than Lu Yongchang.
Although she smiled at Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu, no matter how she looked at them, she looked like a tiger smiling kindly at a lamb, causing both of them to break out in cold sweat.
They really didn't understand how Lu Yongchang, despite his humble appearance, could be regarded as a city lord, got such a fierce wife.
"His Royal Highness, Master Niu, you are all welcome. When you come to our house, you feel like you are at home. Come and eat." Mr. Xiong greeted the two of them politely with a smile on his face.
Immediately, she was not polite, lowered her head and started to pick up the rice. The latter's eating momentum was really shocking. It would be described as "wind and rolling clouds". Isn't that an exaggeration? She held the small bowl in her big hands as if she were holding a small bottle cap, and used her chopsticks to dig into the rice.
Just move, you can eat a bowl of rice in two mouthfuls, and the speed of picking up vegetables is even more dazzling.
Xiang Yun was dumbfounded. Even Fatty Niu, who had always been familiar with him, became polite at this moment and froze in his seat without moving his chopsticks.
When Lu Yongchang saw this, his old face became hot, he was very embarrassed. He gently poked his wife's back with his finger, originally wanting to remind her.
Unexpectedly, his poke disturbed his wife's enjoyment of the meal. The latter suddenly turned back, like a beast looking back, with an angry look and a rough voice!
"What are you doing! It's time to eat, what are you doing for me?"
The voice of the city lord's wife was like thunder, which made the three grown men in the room tremble. City lord Lu was already defeated before he could speak, so he had to lower his head and her voice was like a gnat.
"Um...woman, is the food enough..."
Looking at this scene, Xiang Yun finally knew that it was not unreasonable for City Master Lu to be henpecked. He also understood why City Master Lu's family was getting poorer and poorer. With a wife like this, life would be worse than death.
Fatty Niu, who was sitting next to Xiang Yun, also muttered: "Oh my god, this woman is really scary. Why did City Lord Lu get such a wife? His concubine Lan'er is better. Why isn't she here to accompany her today?"
"
Xiang Yun looked at Fatty Niu, whose huge body could almost collapse the chair he sat on, and thought to himself: "Compared with you, the wife of the city lord is much slimmer."
Finally, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Young Master Niu left the City Lord's Mansion with empty stomachs. Lu Yongchang put them on the sedan chair with an apologetic expression, watched them leave, and then returned to the mansion.
On the way back, Fatty Niu was in high spirits and excitedly discussed with Xiang Yun how to build a brothel on the mountain. Xiang Yun pretended not to hear what the guy said.
"Boss, when are you going to the Silver Moon Mountains for a field trip? Take me with you. Maybe I can give you some advice."
Before Xiang Yun could speak, an old and deep voice from outside the carriage floated into the carriage.
"Third Young Master, you still need to meditate in the mansion during this period. You will return to the mansion with me in three days to recover."
"Ah... why are we going back so soon? Didn't we agree to wait another month? No, absolutely not, I won't go back so early!"
When Fatty Niu heard this, he jumped up in the carriage and shouted, almost causing the carriage to collapse.
"Third Young Master, I have just received a summons from the master. This is what the master means. You can go to Longcheng and ask him in person."
"Well……"
When Fatty Niu heard this and asked him to ask his father, he immediately lost his temper and could only sigh helplessly: "Okay... I'll go back with you."
Fatty Niu looked at Xiang Yun with a resentful look on his face: "Boss, it seems we have to say farewell in advance."
Xiang Yun patted Fatty Niu on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, if something happens when you get there, just come to your father. Don't be stupid and resist by yourself. Those who have problems with us will at most make trouble in secret."
, I dare not do anything to you openly."
"Well, don't worry, boss. I will work hard to survive. I also want to see you finish building the Fengting Pavilion up the mountain. Then you must leave a supreme box for me."
…
After separating from Fatty Niu, Xiang Yun returned to the Prince's Mansion, closed the door, and sat alone on the bench in the study.
Looking at the landscape map laid out on the desk, he took a serious look at every peak in the Silver Moon Mountain Range.
As well as the distribution of forces around the mountain peaks, they are also identified one by one. Looking at the entire Silver Moon Mountain Range, almost all the mountain tops have been divided up by the forces of the major sects.
Even the remaining hills are all low and barren, with little cloud power, located in remote hillsides that no one cares about.
After looking at it for a long time, Xiang Yun was most satisfied with the Qingming Mountain recommended by Lu Yongchang today. Except that the cloud power was not strong enough, all the conditions were the best, so it was the best choice for the time being.
It's not that Xiang Yun has never thought about directly occupying the surrounding mountains that are more suitable for him, but this kind of preemptive behavior is too unkind, and it will definitely use the power of the government, and it will definitely cause a lot of noise.
With his father's wide eyesight, he would definitely know about his establishment of the sect soon, but Xiang Yun did not want to expose this matter so soon.
After sitting down and thinking about it, Xiang Yun decided to go on an on-site inspection before making a decision.
Having made up his mind, Xiang Yun began to make preparations in the next few days.
He quietly asked Lin Wan'er to help him buy a Feng Shui compass and Luban ruler and other measuring tools at the market, which were used as tools for measuring Feng Shui and measuring distances.
Xiang Yun also wants to learn from the Feng Shui masters in his previous life this time. They searched for dragons to point their acupoints and found a treasured Feng Shui place to establish a sect.
…
Three days later, in the backyard of the Prince's Mansion, a figure dressed as a servant, holding a BMW, quietly walked out of the backyard gate, carrying a large luggage bag on his back. It was Xiang Yun who sneaked out!
The latter activated the Turtle Breathing Technique at this moment, left the Prince's Mansion silently, got on his horse, and walked swiftly towards the North City Gate.
After saying goodbye to Fatty Niu who came here early this morning, Xiang Yun quietly returned to the wing, then walked to the backyard, put the luggage he had prepared on his back, and sneaked out of the Prince's Mansion.
