Chapter 81 What are the chances of winning?
Ling Chan followed them all the way to their temporary residence under everyone's delighted gazes.
“We used the materials we had in the mountains to build some makeshift houses.”
The house was very simple, built with tree trunks and bamboos from the mountains, and covered with some dry leaves and bamboo branches.
Fortunately, the mountains are covered with dense forests, which also serve to shelter us from wind and rain.
"Master, we have observed over the past few days that it is very difficult to establish a base for Qingyi Tower in this mountain goat stream."
Ling Chan looked at the person who was speaking. For some reason, when she saw this girl, she felt from her aura that she was...
"Are you Gong Zi?" The sister who knows medicine.
Gong Zi was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, OP, I'm Gong Zi."
"Go on."
Gong Zi nodded slightly, "Yeah."
"The water in the mountain stream is fast-flowing and the distance is so far, it's difficult for us to get across."
"To build a stronghold, we'll definitely need a lot of materials. How are we going to transport them?"
“How are the other workers going to get up there?”
These are real problems that are facing them, and they are also the issues they have been thinking about these days.
"Or we can build our base on this side of the mountain stream so we don't have to worry about transportation."
"But... if we build our base here, then choosing this location doesn't make sense."
The reason why we chose Shanyangjian is that the mountains here are dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack.
If you want to build a stronghold, you must build it on the opposite side.
"No need to transport materials from outside, try to use local materials." Ling Chan had already thought about it. It was impossible to transport materials over.
"As for how to get there, I have my own way. Let's rest today and talk about it tomorrow." It was getting late and she was really tired.
Gong Zi quickly arranged for the sisters to vacate a room for Ling Chan and Hong Dou to stay in. As for Gong Lan and Gong Yu, they squeezed together with Gong Zi and the others.
"The owner... no, Sister Lan." Gong Zi naturally called Gong Lan the owner, but quickly changed her address. "You've been with the owner for so long. What kind of person is she? Is she easy to get along with?"
"Don't worry, the host is an easy person to get along with." Gong Lan was very sure about this. She felt very comfortable getting along with Ling Chan.
"Don't feel any pressure when you're with her. Just treat her as normal."
Many sisters gathered outside Gong Zi's house, all of whom came to ask Gong Lan for news.
"The most important thing is, no matter what the OP does, everyone just needs to watch it. Ask less and do more." Gong Lan looked around at everyone.
"Sister Lan, it seems like the poster knows kung fu, right? How is her kung fu?" another sister asked.
Gong Lan pondered for a moment, "The host is very good at Qinggong, has good skills, and can also disguise herself..."
"But I've never seen her use her internal energy."
Gong Zi sighed deeply upon hearing this, "The host is in the Ling family... it's already quite impressive that she can do this."
"She must have suffered a lot."
Gong Lan smiled and said, "All of this is in the past. Don't worry, the host is doing well now."
She and Gong Yu began to tell everyone about Ling Chan's actions in the capital, including her strange kung fu skills.
"The author of this post is so amazing." Gong Zi exclaimed in admiration.
Others also praised it.
At this moment, a sister asked a question that concerned her, "So, can the host help us make money?"
Everyone fell silent and looked at Gong Lan.
Gong Lan was also stunned. In this regard...she had never seen the young lady show this kind of talent.
"Let's build the base first, and then... Anyway, since the owner has taken over the position of owner, he will definitely take us with him and will not abandon us."
At the same time, in Fuyun Villa, Gongzhou was entertaining Xiao Jin.
"Prince Rui, I'm sorry for the poor hospitality. Please."
Gong Zhou, the head of the Gong family and the current leader of the martial arts world, is in his forties and looks a few years younger than his actual age.
"You're too polite, leader." Xiao Jin sat down.
"Prince Rui, let me introduce you." Gong Zhou introduced the people at the table, "These three are the elders of the Gong family, Gong Shan, Gong Xin, and Gong Zhi. There is also an elder, Gong Dian, who is not at Floating Cloud Villa at the moment."
Xiao Jin nodded to the elders as a greeting.
Several elders stood up, bowed, and then sat down.
As they drank and exchanged cups, Xiao Jin asked, "I've heard that many sects in the martial arts world have strong opinions about the Gong family. I wonder what chances the Gong family has of winning this martial arts conference?"
Gongzhou and several elders were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect Xiao Jin to ask so directly.
Xiao Jin continued to ask, "Who is the person that Qingyi Tower wants to assassinate in Beijing?"
Gong Zhou hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "The person Qingyi Tower wants to assassinate is... General Ling's daughter Ling Chan."
General Ling's daughter Ling Chan? Princess Wanyue...isn't she also Gongzhou's niece?
Xiao Jin thought, could it be that Gongzhou issued the killing order in the martial arts world because Qingyi Tower assassinated his niece?
"Qingyi Tower violated the ban, entered the capital without permission, and assassinated officials' families. It is reasonable for this leader to issue a killing order to the underworld." Gongzhou said.
Judging from his expression, it seemed that this matter had nothing to do with whether Ling Chan was his niece.
"I thought... it was because Ling Chan was the alliance leader's niece..." When Xiao Jin said this, he kept looking at the expressions of Gong Zhou and the three elders.
Gongzhou's expression didn't change, but the three elders' pupils shrank at the same time.
"Regardless of whether they intend to assassinate Ling Chan or not, as long as they violate the prohibitions signed between the martial arts world and the imperial court, this killing order must be issued. Otherwise, those martial arts people will follow suit..."
"Isn't the ban we signed just a decoration?"
This is reasonable, but issuing a killing order for this is still an exaggeration.
Another point is that the person Gongzhou was talking about was not Gong Dian in Fuyun Villa, but was in the imperial palace at the moment.
Near noon that day, how could Xiao Jin have been kept in the dark about the commotion caused by the owner of Qingyi Tower and Gong Dian in the imperial palace?
Could it be that there is some personal grudge between Qingyi Tower and the Gong family?
Otherwise, why would the Qingyi Tower owner say that in three months, he would seize the position of Wulin leader from the Gong family patriarch...
"So how is Qingyi Tower now?"
"Alas," Gong Zhou sighed, "Qingyi Tower isn't a well-known name in the martial arts world. We don't know where their base is, let alone any special symbols they have... In short, we haven't heard any news about Qingyi Tower in all these days."
Not to mention encircling and suppressing them.
Gongzhou was also very annoyed. He had promised the person in the palace that he would wipe out Qingyi Tower within three months.
Now it seems...very difficult.
I wonder if Qingyi Tower will show up at the martial arts conference three months later.
If they show up, they must be...caught in one fell swoop!
