251 City Response
Chapter 251
Repairing the formation requires a lot of materials and preparations. Ji Yuan and Bai Qiaomo certainly can't pay for it out of their own pockets. This has to be provided by the court.
So the two walked out of the formation, and Ji Yuan reported the situation to Fang Zhi truthfully.
As the orphan of the Ji family, he couldn't have much affection for the dead Ji family members, but he could clear their names after their death. This was what the royal family owed the Ji family.
After listening to it, Lord Fang thought about it in his heart and smiled. He didn't doubt Ji Yuan's words because there was no need.
The chief formation master must have studied this formation inside and out, but he got nothing.
Ji Yuanbu came to this result after just one trip. It was obvious that the old guy had indeed gone the wrong way.
The Ji family is respectable. Fang Zhi said: "Fang will truthfully report the materials for repairing the formation. Fang has also told them and will send them over soon. Next, we will have two formation masters."
"Well, we will do our best."
Ji Yuan and Bai Qiaomo did not leave the place. Fang Zhi also mobilized a group of silver-armored guards to protect him. He himself stayed to guard against the old guy's back-up plan.
The Ji family's formation inheritance is very tempting, but for a golden armored guard like him, it is more important to carry out His Majesty's orders and protect the borders of the dynasty.
Besides, he was not a formation master, so he had no desire to inherit the formation of the Ji family.
Feng Ming and Qiu Yi did not go back either. After a large amount of formation materials were delivered, Ji Yuan and Bai Qiaomo either processed these materials to refine formation flags or went in and out of the remnants of the formation. Feng Ming and Qiu Yi
stayed outside, still refining pills for the border troops.
Even if the two pursued speed and quantity, the pills they refined were of better quality than the pills usually distributed by the army, and were welcomed by the whole army.
In particular, the soldiers under General Ji were very grateful to the two pharmacists who lent a hand. The first batch of pills they refined was a timely rain for them.
Fang Zhi personally took the defensive line to protect the safety of Canzhen, Ji Yuan, Bai Qiaomo, and also to protect the grandson of His Majesty Qiu Yi and his nephews. It was the safest to keep them under his own eyes.
Kong Zhao and other silver armored guards were busy outside. What were they busy with? It was the big business of raiding houses and arresting people, which they were best at.
After investigating and punishing a group of people in the military camp and Lanyang City for a period of time, they expanded their business scope outside Lanyang City.
All the nobles who colluded with You Liang and provided shelter were the targets of their investigation. The movement was so big that all the noble families in this area were shocked.
Ling Kang was one of those who was shocked.
People who live and cultivate in this remote area rarely have the opportunity to come into contact with the Silver Armor Guards, but they have heard of their great name.
In fact, in the outside world, the Silver Armor Guards, including the most mysterious Golden Armor Guards, do not have a very good reputation and are hated by the noble families.
Because they are a knife in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor, equivalent to the hawks and dogs of the court. All the noble families that are investigated by them almost have no good end.
In the past, I only heard about it. There are also storytellers in teahouses who will talk about the deeds of the Silver Armor Guards confiscating property and exterminating the clan, which makes ordinary people tremble with fear.
Unexpectedly, they witnessed it with their own eyes this time. Ling Kang was very glad that the Ling family had nothing to do with these things, so he could watch with peace of mind.
Those aristocratic families were trembling with fear, fearing that the silver-armored guards would swing their knives at their heads.
However, the ordinary cultivators in Lanyang City were discussing the recent events in teahouses and wine houses at ease.
The series of recent events, including the series of actions of the silver-armored guards, made it clear to them that they, ordinary cultivators, had nothing to do with them.
The knives in their hands would never cut the necks of ordinary people.
Moreover, for the common people in Lanyang City, the investigation of these aristocratic families was a good thing. If they had not colluded with each other and exploited each other, how could the ordinary soldiers in the border army have such a hard life?
Without sufficient supplies of materials and training resources, how could those generals resist the invasion of wild beasts again and again?
So those people should have died in the first place, and everyone would only applaud if they were investigated and punished.
"In the past, those merchants who had the support of the City Lord's Mansion and You Liang were showing off their power in our Lanyang City all day long, but now they are either in prison or living in fear. It's really gratifying."
"That's right. It's okay that you can't buy elixirs in our city, but even the soldiers fighting against wild beasts on the front line can't use a single elixir. They have to rely on themselves to withstand the injuries. Even the best body can't bear it. Just look at our medicine hall. There is not even a pharmacist."
"You don't know this, right? Life in the military camp is much better now. You can use mid-grade or even high-grade elixirs. If you are lucky enough to get a high-grade elixir, it can replace many low-grade elixirs."
"Where did such a good elixir come from?"
"You didn't know that two pharmacists moved into the military camp? Didn't they say that General Ji's young master came? Those two pharmacists followed Young Master Ji. As soon as they entered the military camp, they started to refine pills at full speed. I heard that in just two or three days, they provided tens of thousands of pills to the military camp."
"That's impossible. How can two pharmacists refine so many pills? That's not even a boast. In such a short period of time, it's good enough if they can refine a few hundred pills."
"That's just another pharmacist. How can they be compared with the genius pharmacist? The two pharmacists living in the military camp are not only the most talented pharmacists in our Dongmu Dynasty, but also in the entire Feihong Continent. One is Feng Mingfeng, the pharmacist champion of our league, and the other is Qiu, the grandson of our emperor." As
soon as the news broke, the restaurant exploded. Even if the news was delayed in remote areas, the names of these two young geniuses had been heard.
Not to mention how noble the identity of the emperor's grandson was, even Feng Ming, his master had recently advanced to the Kaihun realm, and the news spread throughout Feihong Continent.
Such two people actually came to their Lanyang City, and all the residents of Lanyang City were honored.
"So this is the real reason why His Majesty sent people to investigate the border troops. They found the problem and alarmed the court to send people down to investigate." "That's for
sure. Didn't you see that General Ji was suppressed by the other two people before, and his voice couldn't reach the court at all."
"Not only that, there are also two talented formation masters who are now repairing the remaining formations on the defense line. If they are repaired, the safety of our Lanyang City will be greatly enhanced, and everyone will be blessed."
"That's great."
Some people thought that it was too exaggerated that two alchemists could provide tens of thousands of pills in just a few days.
But when they heard that it was these two, they thought that it was not an exaggeration to create any miracle.
Most people were looking forward to whether the two genius formation mages could repair the remnant formation.
One of them was called Ji Yuan, and he was the champion of the formation mage competition in the league. If he couldn't do it, how many people in the Dongmu Dynasty could do it?
It was said that the few formation mages who stayed in the formation hall rushed to the defense line to help the two genius formation mages.
As the news spread, formation masters from other nearby cities also rushed to Lanyang City. They knew the power and reputation of the small Tiangang Beidou formation arranged by the Ji family.
People also talked about Ji Yuan because it was too coincidental.
The formation family that was destroyed more than 20 years ago was surnamed Ji, and the genius formation master who came was also surnamed Ji. Are the two related? Could he be a descendant of the Ji family who was left outside?
While Ling Kang was busy negotiating business with the border troops for his family, he finally learned the identities of the Mo brothers. No, now they can no longer be called Mo brothers. Compared with the discussions outside, Ling Kang can match the identities of the four people one by one.
Although he had expected that the identities of these four people were not simple, this result was also beyond his expectation. He did not expect such a big background.
He met with his friends in a restaurant in his spare time. Hearing all kinds of gossip and speculation in the restaurant, Ling Kang laughed and shook his head.
"Brother Ling is so lucky to be able to make friends with such people." Before, he was just jealous of Ling Kang's acquaintance with Master Ji, and escorted Master Ji to Lanyang City.
Now he knows that the people who came with him have a bigger background, and their identities are much higher than Master Ji.
Ling Kang smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I still can't quite believe it."
His friends understood this feeling very well. Think about it, one of them is a powerful person in the Soul-Opening Realm and a direct disciple of a sixth-grade alchemy master. To them, people of such status only exist in storytellers and are very far away from them.
And not long ago, Ling Kang was on good terms with such a person. It all seemed like a dream.
Ling Kang thought for a while and said, "I used to think that such talented and arrogant people were high above and unattainable, but these people are not like that. Instead, they act quite straightforwardly. Just because they suit my taste, I want to escort them. Now think about it, even without my escort, they can still get here with their strength."
Friends are still envious of Ling Kang. This is Ling Kang . Ling Kang had already found his own chance, and he asked curiously: "Many people speculate that this formation mage Ji Yuan has a connection with the formation family Ji family. What do you think, brother Ling?"
Ling Kang shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, maybe it's just a coincidence."
But he had already believed it in his heart. Ji Yuan was the previous fellow Daoist Yuan. He came to Lanyang City in hiding, probably for the remnant formation and the formation family Ji family.
However, the secrets in it were not something they could ask about. Sometimes knowing too much was not necessarily a good thing.
For example, the notice said that the formation family Ji family was destroyed by You Liang and the others, so they should just take it as it was.
The friend understood Ling Kang's expression and said with a smile: "Yes, maybe it's just a coincidence. You don't know that many people in the city have heard that the two alchemists are still refining medicine in the barracks. They are trying to find ways to exchange some elixirs from General Ji. No matter how high the price is, I am happy to do it."
