Chapter 331 The Old Lady Wants to Hold Her Grandson
In a moment, Xie Jingci looked Lu Wanyin over.
She seemed thinner and her aura sharper.
When the guards saw that it was Lu Wanyin who came back, they were happy for a while, then looked at each other, said nothing, and quietly retreated.
The master hurried on his way and came back several days earlier, just to see the lady earlier.
Lu Wanyin didn't pay attention to anyone else. She also pulled Xie Jingci and looked him up and down.
After confirming that he was fine, I became curious: "Why are there so many people?"
Xie Jingci held her shoulders and turned her around: "Stay there and rest for a few days."
Lu Wanyin looked in that direction for a long time, but didn't see anything unusual. "Fortunately, the place you chose is big enough. I think there's enough space for at least 50,000 people to live on the mountain."
Any more and life would be a bit inconvenient.
"No."
However, Xie Jingci smiled and denied it: "At least 150,000."
Lu Wanyin was stunned.
She looked at Zizai Peak again: "How do you say it?"
Xie Jingci watched as the group of guards had already run away. He gently squeezed Lu Wanyin's hand and said, "Let's go to the cliff."
Lu Wanyin was curious, so she teleported to the edge of the cliff with Xie Jingci and waited for him to give her an explanation.
Xie Jingci pointed to the other side of the cliff, "That place is not smaller than here."
The frozen ice at the bottom of the cliff has melted.
The rushing water hits the cliff, making a loud noise.
Xie Jingci pointed to the other side of the cliff and said, "Madam, aren't you curious about what's on the other side?"
Lu Wanyin was stunned: "You mean..."
Since arriving in the wilderness, Lu Wanyin and her friend have hardly had a single day of leisure.
Lu Wanyin didn’t even think about going to take a look across the street.
This is a natural barrier.
The tops of the cliffs on both sides are more than fifty meters apart, gradually narrowing downwards until they are only twenty meters apart at the bottom of the cliff.
Only those who are good at light work can travel back and forth.
If we were to maintain troops there, we could not guarantee that all the tens of thousands of soldiers would have superb martial arts skills.
If we build a bridge, we will abandon this natural barrier, which is not beautiful.
She didn't think about it that way.
As if guessing Lu Wanyin's concerns, Xie Jingci smiled slightly: "We have a flock of eagles, so daily supply exchanges are very convenient. I will let Xuan Qi teach them simple methods of Qi circulation, and train them every day. When the time comes, we can use the spiritual spring water to improve their speed. Fifty meters vertically will not be a problem."
When you first arrive in the wilderness, don't be greedy.
Now that things have stabilized, it's time to consider these things.
"Although we can accommodate an army of 150,000, there's no need to be greedy. Soldiers trained in this way can easily defeat ten of them. With only 100,000, we can be as powerful as an army of a million."
After Xie Jingci finished speaking, he looked at Lu Wanyin with a smile: "Madam, do you have anything to add?"
Lu Wanyin pondered for a moment, then spoke carefully: "In a few days, have the City Lord's Mansion send out a notice to recruit city guards.
Then we will replace the entire Zizai City, from the patrolling soldiers to the gatekeepers at the City Lord's Mansion, with our people.
There should be a special military camp in the city. After some renovations, 10,000 people should be transferred down from the mountains every month to take turns. When there are more people on the mountain, the number can be increased to 20,000.
Closed-door training is effective, but we cannot be completely disconnected from society.
By the way, they also placed their spies everywhere in Zizai City.
Twenty thousand people sounds like a lot, but she is afraid that it won't be enough as Zizai City becomes more prosperous and expands.
"Madam, you have given it much thought."
Xie Jingci praised: "Exposing some of your strength to others in this way will bring many benefits."
In the distance, one could hear exclamations after another, and it was obvious that it was the first time for them to go up the mountain.
"It should be those four hundred people coming."
Lu Wanyin pulled Xie Jingci back and said, "Let's go take a look."
As Lu Wanyin expected, the people who went up the mountain this time were the four hundred people.
They were busy all the time since they got to the mountain, and they felt that two eyes were not enough.
Especially Du Guangjin.
He originally wanted to introduce something to others as a person who had been through it.
At first, he felt quite proud when he saw others were so shocked that they were speechless.
Before he could feel proud for long, he was speechless.
The people next to him kept pushing him: "Come on, why don't you say anything?"
Du Guangjin was completely numb.
What he said
The key point is that when he came, the house on the mountain was not like this.
At this moment, Lu Wanyin appeared with Xie Jingci.
Du Guangjin was like seeing a life-saving straw: "Master, you are here."
Lu Wanyin glanced around and saw that everyone was present. She nodded slightly, "Xuan Yi."
With such a big commotion on the mountain, the guards who were still idle would have come over long ago.
Xuan Yi immediately appeared: "Master."
Lu Wanyin waved her hand: "Take them to arrange accommodation. Oh, where's grandma?"
Xuanyi pointed in the direction of the lower half of the mountain: "The old lady, accompanied by Liuying, is fishing by the lake."
Lu Wanyin chuckled and pulled Xie Jingci: "It's rare for grandma to have so much free time. Let's go and take a look."
Halfway up the mountain, at Lu Wanyin's request, a large fish pond was dug.
Because the fish reproduced too quickly, the fish pond was expanded twice and is now as big as a lake.
It's a good place for fishing.
The two of them walked hand in hand to the edge of the pond, and sure enough, they saw the old lady sitting on the armchair, holding a fishing rod in her hand, and talking to Liuying who was sitting next to her.
Liuying smiled happily, with one hand resting on the armrest of the armchair and her head half leaning against it.
She tilted her head back and looked at the old lady, shaking her shoulders from time to time, laughing so hard.
Lu Wanyin looked at the two of them and felt very relieved.
The old lady now treats Liuying as her own granddaughter.
Liuying no longer had the reserved manners she had at the beginning, and became more relaxed and at ease in front of the old lady.
This is exactly what she wanted to see.
Lu Wanyin hopes that the little girl who gave everything for her can be happy.
Liuying was talking to the old lady when she caught a glimpse of someone approaching and looking over here.
When she saw Lu Wanyin, Liuying's eyes lit up and she stood up excitedly: "Madam, the master and the mistress are back."
The fish that was about to bite the rod flapped its wings and swam to the bottom of the water.
The old lady didn't care at all and quickly helped Liuying up by the hand.
When she saw the two of them, she was overjoyed: "Okay, okay, I'm glad you're back."
Lu Wanyin let go of Xie Jingci, walked quickly forward, and supported the old lady's other arm: "Grandma, it's just the beginning of spring, and the cold hasn't dissipated yet. We can't stay by the water for too long."
"well."
The old lady's heart moved, and she shook her head in a feigned sadness. "I'm really lonely, especially lately. I always feel like something is missing in my arms. Fortunately, I have Liuying to keep me company. I can only find these ways to entertain myself."
Lu Wanyin didn't understand.
She thought for a moment and said, "Grandma is going to live down the mountain for a while. Let's set up a theatre troupe tomorrow so that she can go and listen to opera when she's bored."
This was also her plan a long time ago.
The future Zizai City must have everything.
Life and entertainment are indispensable.
