Chapter 272 Joint self-protection? Ambition revealed! 【14, please subscribe】
West Mountain City
It's visibly chaotic!
The streets were full of people hurrying by.
All kinds of shops were closed, and there was no trace of the former prosperity. There was only a faint air of desolation, and even the garbage on the streets was left uncleaned.
The patrolling disciples of the Red Sect also all had worried looks on their faces.
At this time, Wei Han did not panic. He firmly implemented his own response plan and began to dig deep holes and store food.
He no longer lacks food!
Then he started digging!
He started by digging directly underground in his own residence.
The ground of Xishan City has been compacted through magical processing. It is much harder than ordinary soil. Even a hundred meters underground is as hard as stone.
However, with Wei Han's extraordinary strength, he could easily dig it up with his bare hands. For convenience, he also refined a magical weapon that looked like an engineer shovel, which increased the digging speed a lot.
"Petrification!"
In the underground passage
Every few steps, Wei Han would perform a first-level intermediate petrification technique, which could solidify the soil into stone. It was an essential magical technique for digging holes!
In a moment!
A stone passage leading directly underground appeared.
Wei Han was in a playful mood and simply dug out layers of passages in the half-acre underground. These passages were intricately intertwined with each other, and ordinary people would probably get lost if they came in.
On the bottom floor, he specially dug several bedrooms, alchemy rooms, weapon refining rooms, and talisman drawing rooms, and built it into the appearance of an underground palace.
"If the situation gets out of hand and the house is attacked, we can hide underground temporarily. The gold-eating ants can also act as spies to keep an eye on every place, so we won't be surrounded by people without knowing it."
"There are still two major problems. The first is that the underground is not solid enough. If someone digs here, won't the underground hiding place be exposed?"
"The second is that there is no escape route. If we are besieged by too many enemies, we will not be able to escape without an escape route."
Wei Han pondered carefully.
Although his strength is good, it is enough to deal with various crises.
But the situation he faced this time was so dangerous that even if he had many cards in his hand, he had to think a little more.
"We can dig an escape route to an uninhabited yard nearby. It's not difficult to solve. Or we can dig to Lu Yan's house!"
"As for the safety of the hiding place, it is better to set up a few formations underground. This way, even if outsiders want to attack from underground, they can't do it. Once they touch the formation, I will find them."
"We can bury a few more blood evil lightning beads in key places and control them with the spiritual power of the formation. Once the enemy breaks in, they will be in trouble in an instant!"
Wei Han planned happily.
He has always spared no effort and is very interested in this kind of life-saving things.
After he had completed the renovation of his basement, he nodded with satisfaction. Immortal cultivators were really good at construction and development. It only took him an hour.
Not only does he not feel tired!
Instead, there is a sense of satisfaction that comes from playing a construction game.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Han went out again!
He deliberately wandered around the city, trying to find a few suitable places to hide.
Xishan City is very large, and many places are vacant and uninhabited. Some are dilapidated shantytown courtyards, some are wealthy mansions with three entrances and three exits, and there are also residences of the powerful and wealthy covering dozens of acres.
Wei Han has a lot of choices!
He specially picked seven or eight places that were inconspicuous but surrounded by intricate alleys. He didn't even need to rent them. He just went straight in, set up the formation and started digging holes.
Some hiding places are even specially dug underground to connect them together!
They are spread all over the city. Once something happens, Wei Han can quickly find a hiding place and escape no matter where he is.
After a busy day, he finally breathed a sigh of relief!
With so many arrangements, Wei Han's sense of security has improved a lot.
…
Noon of the second day
Duan Tianhe invited Wei Han and Lu Yan to his own small courtyard.
When they arrived, they found that there were twenty or thirty people standing in this small courtyard. There were men, women, old and young, all of them were neighbors from Sanxiufangshi Street.
"What is this?" Wei Han was surprised.
Duan Tianhe quickly pulled him aside and whispered, "I came back yesterday and told my wife about the alliance. She was quite interested in it and couldn't help but invite an old friend of more than 20 years to join us. As a result, everyone told me about it and overnight, 20 to 30 households were involved. Now everyone is interested in joining forces to protect themselves!"
"this?"
Wei Han was a little amused.
He just wanted a few trustworthy people to unite and protect themselves, and didn't intend to make a big scene. But who knew that human nature was unpredictable, and the truth was leaked out in an instant.
In this panic time!
Once someone proposed joint self-protection, naturally there would be people who responded. This was because the news was not spread intentionally, otherwise I'm afraid more people would come.
"It's up to you. Didn't you say it was my suggestion?" Wei Han frowned.
"No!" Duan Tianhe explained through spiritual energy transmission: "Also, my wife and I didn't reveal the fact that you shared the spiritual rice with me. We just wanted to get our old friends to protect ourselves, but we didn't expect it to cause such a big scene. I'm sorry, fellow Daoist Dian."
"It's okay!" Wei Han finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Just hope they didn’t reveal too much!
Now he and Lu Yan walked into the courtyard and greeted everyone, but they were not too high-profile. Everyone thought they came because they heard the news, and did not pay too much attention to him.
"Is everyone here?" A middle-aged strong monk spoke in a rough voice, frowning.
Wei Han actually knew this person!
He is considered a relatively well-known figure among the independent cultivators.
His name is Luo Tianxiong. He has reached the ninth level of Qi training and has a hunting team of five or six people under him. He makes a living by taking people into the mountains to hunt monsters and sell them.
It is said that he is not only wealthy but also generous, magnanimous and loyal, and has a good reputation among the independent cultivators.
This kind of person is a relatively dazzling presence in the market.
People like Duan Tianhe and his wife are honest people.
People like Wei Han and Lu Yan are insignificant marginal people.
At this moment, Luo Tianxiong was not polite either. He turned the tables and said, "Everyone should know about the strange fog incident yesterday. Now Xishan City has been trapped. No one in the city can afford to leave. There is already chaos in the city!"
"Yesterday, I heard Daoist Fellow Duan propose to unite for self-protection. I think it is very necessary, so today I once again propose that all the residents of Sanxiufang Street unite!"
"We don't seek to dominate, we just want to protect our own street and prevent the riots from spreading here. Do you have any opinions?"
Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this!
"Yes, we just want to protect ourselves!"
"The outside world is too chaotic right now. What if some people don't have spiritual rice and supplies stored away and start smashing, looting and burning?"
"The Red Sect is no longer reliable. We must protect ourselves!"
"Fellow Taoists, let's unite!"
Everyone spoke at once.
Wei Han and Lu Yan looked at each other and noticed something was wrong.
