Chapter 802 Retreat
Leaving the camp of the Taurus Warriors, Wu Zhongyuan walked to Dongcheng Inn again. He hadn't been to the Inn for a long time. He wanted to go over and see Dasha, and by the way, the dragon foals were also seen.
No one doesn’t like to be respected by others, but it doesn’t feel good to kneel down everywhere he goes, which makes him feel inexplicably stressed.
It was early winter. For the sake of keeping warm, Dasha's shed had been sealed and reinforced, and it was filled with dry cow dung. When Wu Zhongyuan arrived, Dasha was lying in the dung pile to rest. He did not like exercise. He spent most of his time lying on his body except for eating.
When he saw Wu Zhongyuan, Dasha did not show excessive closeness. It is an insect and has a low IQ. Being able to rub his wings and click twice is already a very close behavior.
After seeing Dasha, Wu Zhongyuan went to see Wang Xinran's dragon horse again. The horse tribe produced three dragon horses every year, two gray and one black, and three dragon horses could fly into the clouds and fog. The black-haired dragon horse was more magical, larger in size, and faster.
Last year, the horse tribe paid tribute to three pregnant mares, and they laid three dragon foals in a group. One black-haired dragon foal was given to Wang Xinran, and the other two gray-haired dragon foals were asked to him to distribute them to Zuofu Palace and Youbi Palace for public use.
The mare was produced at the end of the first lunar month, and now it is early October. These three dragon foals are only eight months old and are underage. Although they are not small, they are not able to ride them. In fact, they are not completely unable to ride them, but no one is willing to ride them.
In addition to these three dragon horses, there is also a dragon horse in the true sense in the postyard. It was a dragon horse he captured from the East China Sea with his seven orifices. It comes from the East China Sea Dragon Clan.
The dragon horses of the horses are more like horses, while the dragon horses of the dragons are more like dragons, with dragon horns on the head and beards under the jaws. Unlike the dragon horses of the horses, his dragon horses are meat-eating and are kept in the northeast corner of the promenade.
Longma likes water. Because there is no pool in the promenade, Longma is in poor spirits. Although everyone in the promenade takes good care of him, he still loses a lot of weight during this period.
After examining the situation of Longma, Wu Zhongyuan removed his reins and instead gave him an idea, ordering him to go to the entrance of the sea to rest and standby, which is adjacent to the East China Sea. Longma is more familiar with the environment there and can also find food on his own.
As winter is approaching, the office farm is stocking up for livestock for winter, and this year the grain harvest is booming. In addition to the forage, some rough rice and poor grain have been stocked up. In winter, livestock also need to eat some rice and grain.
Everything takes a process, and development and growth are no exception. At present, the overall framework of the country and the military has come out. Next, you only need to wait patiently. Without interference from external factors, you can quickly enter a virtuous cycle.
After leaving the postyard, Wu Zhongyuan went to the Houshan Grain Depot again. The rice produced by Kumamoto Castle and the rice tributed by various Dayuan Castles were continuously transported into the cave. The old blind man knew the importance of rice and grain and sent heavy troops to guard it. Wu Laoer, who was idle, was also sent.
There are dedicated people in charge of recording and transportation, and Wu Laoer is just a decoration here, but he likes to point fingers and yell at the blind command.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan coming, Wu Laoer hurried over to see the ceremony. Wu Zhongyuan took him aside and gave him a face-to-face message. He ordered him to secretly dig a secret passage leading to the outside of the city. The secret passage had two entrances, at Fushouyuan and the school, and there was only one exit, leading to the back mountain.
This arrangement was not a temporary idea. He had long had this idea. The Fushou Academy and the school lived in the relatives of the major city lords. If the army was defeated, the city must be destroyed and the city must be safe first.
In order to ensure the secret, Wu Laoer could only do the work by himself, and he was not allowed to lead the Heijishan tribe members to start work together.
Wu Laoer should do his job, but he was just thinking about it carefully. Wu Zhongyuan smiled and said that the old blind man and Wu Di must have considered this, but they could not take the initiative to propose it because it was an emergency plan and was based on the city's destruction. If the two made such suggestions, they would be distrust of him.
As the spiritual energy cultivation improves, the abilities he possesses are getting bigger and bigger. After becoming Taiyuan, what Wu Zhongyuan is most satisfied with is the ability to move instantly, which can instantly be sent to one another, saving a lot of time, and can go there instantly no matter where you want to go.
After leaving Youxiong, Wu Zhongyuan went to Cangshan of the Niu tribe. Cangshan had reported that a severe earthquake occurred in a besieged city under his jurisdiction. After the earthquake, a nearby mountain collapsed, revealing a bottomless deep pit. He came here this time to check the pit and determine the real reason for its occurrence.
In order to save time, the main and deputy city lords did not alarm the main and deputy city lords. They came quietly and searched for them by themselves. They soon found the deep pit. This deep pit was located below a mountain. The entire mountain bloomed in all directions. The deep pit was about a hundred feet above the ground. While walking down, Wu Zhongyuan was deliberately paying attention and found huge claw marks on the stone wall, which indicated that some giant creature had climbed out of here not long ago.
There is a large cave at the bottom of the deep pit. An underground river flows through the cave, and there is a strong smell of fishy smell in the cave. The one who previously lies here should be some kind of giant reptile.
There are no obvious signs of animal activity in the cave, which shows that the dormant creatures here do not have frequent activities and have been dormant for a long time before.
Based on the time he released the Beast King, it is comprehensively inferred that this giant creature is likely to have been awakened by the Beast King.
It is normal for the Beast King to summon the old subordinates after they escape from the trap. Moreover, as the Beast King, Su Yang is likely to have the ability to summon and control beasts, including controlling birds and various reptiles.
Leaving Cangshan, he went to Daqiu again. Daqiu had previously reported that the stolen ancient tomb was found in the west of Daqiu.
He had been in Daqiu for a long time before, familiar with the location of the West Mountain, and went there by himself, and soon found the ancient tomb. Since it had rained in this area before, the surrounding area was very muddy.
The situation is basically the same as described in the memorial. A large amount of red soil was accumulated around the tomb. The reason why these soils were red was because a large proportion of cinnabar was added to it.
The sarcophagus is still left in the tomb. Unlike the common coffin, this sarcophagus is extremely huge and round. It can be confirmed that this object is by no means a human being.
Since it had rained before, the giant footprints mentioned in the memorial could not be found. However, based on the details of the memorial that the footprints only had three toes, it is speculated that the one lying in this sarcophagus was probably some kind of ancient and unknown bird.
After nightfall, Wu Zhongyuan changed his body and clothes to Yinmahe. It was not the former site of Yinmahe in the northern border, but the Yinmahe in the middle ground.
He came here not to visit privately, but to get a general idea of Yinmahe's current business situation.
After confirming that Yinmahe was operating normally, Wu Zhongyuan bought some food to the former site of Weicheng located on the coast of the South China Sea. He couldn't explain why he came here. Perhaps it was to determine whether this large city was occupied by someone, or perhaps it was just because it was close to the South China Sea. On that day, the Dragon Clan of the South China Sea helped the demon king escape and attacked Wang Xinran and others. This matter has always made him feel uneasy.
Weicheng has been abandoned for a long time, and Wu Zhongyuan sat on the city tower eating food he bought from Mahe. At the same time, he looked at the vast South China Sea. Sooner or later, he would have to settle the accounts with the Dragon Clan of the South China Sea, but it is not advisable to have troubles, rest and develop and grow.
At the second update, Wu Zhongyuan left Weicheng and returned to Youxiong. Although it was getting late, the palace was still coming and going. Earlier, he issued an order to send the Hunyuan Ding to the arsenal and free up the Dan Hall to work for the old blind man and others. At this time, everyone was busy moving.
Wang Xinran was not in the palace, so Wu Zhongyuan went to the palace alone. He wanted to be alone, but he was worried that an emergency would not be able to get the news as soon as possible, so he could only choose to stay in Youxiong.
In the following days, Wu Zhongyuan would attend court every day and listen to reports from everyone. Anomaly activities of animals were found in various parts of the Central Plains, which were strange and diverse.
It took a lot of energy to analyze these alone. Finally, a few days later, Wu Zhongyuan found that he had fallen into a misunderstanding. The country is too big and there are too many government affairs. As a king, it is impossible for him to do everything himself, otherwise he would fall into a vicious cycle of tedious and boring. Human energy is limited. As a king, he can only focus on the big and let go of the small and do the most important things.
What is the most important thing for him? The answer is obvious: retreat and practice will lead to the birth of the Yuanying.
After making an explanation with the old blind man and Wu Di, Wu Zhongyuan went to the arsenal to meet Wang Xinran, and used a thousand miles to send the Tiangang crossbow and Earth Demon bow that had been built but had not yet been shipped to the Sifang Camp. This act consumed a lot of spiritual energy. Fortunately, he did not need to keep the spiritual energy full at all times at this time.
When Wang Xinran learned that Wu Zhongyuan was going to retreat, he was quite worried, "Is the right time to choose?"
"It's not suitable, but there's nothing I can do," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "If I stayed in Youxiong to handle official business, I would be busy every day and be in a daze."
"What if there is any abnormal movement in the Sifang Camp?" Wang Xinran asked.
Wu Zhongyuan said, "It's already early October, and the seal has disappeared. The divine beasts are less than a hundred days old. There is no need for them to take risks and conflicts. Moreover, even if something happens, Zhu Qianwei and the others will deal with it. If they really can't handle it, they will notify me." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"What if there are other unexpected situations?" Wang Xinran asked again.
"If I can't handle it, they will notify me." Wu Zhongyuan replied.
"How long will you go into seclusion?" Wang Xinran asked again.
"Not necessarily, my plan is to give birth to the Nascent Soul." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wang Xinran nodded and said nothing.
Chapter completed!
