Ying Hill, was the area with the largest area of vegetation in River Flat District. And this was not an undeveloped area. It was the exact opposite. The original Ying Hill was a strange patch of desert in the fertile land of River Flat District.
Deserts were only distributed in the northeast or northwest of the continent. In the Chuanping District, which was a flat terrain in the south, there was actually such a desert. The reason for its formation was already unknown. After the Xuan Jun Empire was established, the first city lord of the Plain River District started to set his sights on this desert. After a few generations of hard work, the desert hills of the past had become the largest dense forest in the Plain River District of today's densely populated region.
Now, how to make use of this man-made Ying Hill had become a new topic in River Flat District. They recruited many specialized xiuzhe to do research in this area.
However, right now, Ying Hill was still Ying Hill. The research team stationed here was not the ruler of Ying Hill. Even if they were, compared to the people of the Protector Nation, who were these research xiuzhe?
Zhu Qi, who had woken up early and was washing up by the stream, saw five big horses and three fierce tigers suddenly appear on the other side of the stream. She didn't even have time to see the five people riding on the horses clearly before she was so scared that she slipped and fell into the mud on the side of the stream.
The five large horses had galloped through the night and finally reached the boundary of Ying Hill at dawn. They did not show any signs of fatigue. The animals that were trained by the five bionic type experts of the Five Bird Brothers had already reached the perception level of more than ten levels. As for the three fierce tigers that Second Brother Yu Gang was raising, they had reached the realm of strength and soul. In most schools on the continent, they would be considered top students. The xiuzhe Zhu Qi who had slipped and fallen in front of them was only at this level.
"Who are you?" The eldest of the five, Zhang Hong, raised his horse whip and pointed at Zhu Qi.
Zhu Qi, who had been sitting in the mud in shock, finally looked at the five people. She saw the color of the five people's clothing and the faintly discernible waist tag on their waists. She finally recognized the five people's identities.
"Greetings, Daren!" Zhu Qi hurriedly climbed up from the mud and greeted them. Then she introduced herself, "This one is the seventh-grade specialized xiuzhe Zhu Qi sent by the Plant Division to help manage Ying Hill."
"Oh, someone from the Plant Division." Zhang Hong nodded. The Farming Department was one of the most important departments of the Dark Army and was in charge of the livelihood of the people. But in a world where cultivators were extraordinary, the power that cultivators possessed was more important than anything else. An organization like the Protectorate was of the same rank as the Plant Division, but its status was completely different. Zhu Qi was only a seventh-ranked official in the Botanical Department, Zhang Hong didn't even bother to look at him.
"Bring us to the station." As Zhang Hong spoke, the five big horses galloped side by side into the stream, splashing water everywhere. He simply helped Zhu Qi take a bath. She followed the three ferocious tigers, but when she crossed the river, her footsteps were gentle and silent. However, when she looked at Zhu Qi and licked her lips, he was really worried that he would be eaten as breakfast.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and lead the way! "Zhang Hong, who had just crossed the river, saw that Zhu Qi was still in a daze and called out impatiently. He raised the horsewhip in his hand, as if he was about to lash it at Zhu Qi.
"Yes, yes, he's coming!" Dripping wet, Zhu Qi hurriedly turned around. Ignoring the other washers, he rushed to the front and bowed, indicating the direction. Compared to the five people on the big horses, he seemed even more insignificant.
The station was not far from this stream and arrived in the blink of an eye. Hearing the sound of hooves outside the tent, many people had already come out. At first, like Zhu Qi, they had jumped in fright at the three ferocious tigers. Then, when they saw the uniforms and tokens of the five, they immediately showed expressions of fear and trepidation. The deputy head of the Chuan Ping Plantation Department, who was in charge of this group, received the report and quickly came out of his tent to greet them. As a third-rank official, he was no different than seventh-ranked official Zhu Qi in front of the people of the Protectorate.
"So it's five daren." The deputy head greeted the five. He actually didn't know the Five Bird Brothers, and didn't know who was higher in rank than him. But as long as they were from the Protectorate, he didn't care about this. It was safer to keep a low profile.
"And who are you?" Zhang Hong's attitude towards the newcomers was no different from how he treated Zhu Qi.
"I am the deputy head of the Chuan Ping Plantation Department, Zhu Ping." The deputy head introduced himself.
"Greetings, Zhu Daren." Zhang Hong jumped off the horse and finally reined in his arrogance. This was not because he was afraid of Zhu Ping's position, but because he would need Zhu Ping's help in the future. He understood that it was better to be amiable than to glare at him.
"Greetings, five daren." Seeing Zhang Hong suddenly become polite, Zhu Ping became uneasy. Having been in officialdom for a long time, he was experienced and immediately realized that the other had something to ask of him. The Protectorate acted at their discretion, and everyone needed to cooperate. But most of the time, the Protectorate was responsible for dangerous fights between xiuzhe. Everyone hoped for as few opportunities as possible to cooperate with them. But now … …
Zhu Ping felt helpless, but his face was still full of smiles and politeness, waiting to see what the other would say.
"Zhu Daren, how long have you been stationed here?" Zhang Hong asked.
"It's been eleven days since I came here," Zhu Ping said.
"Eleven days. Have you found any suspicious people?"
"Suspicious people? No. "Zhu Ping shook his head.
"That's good. In the next few days, we might need to borrow Zhu Daren's people," Zhang Hong said.
"Of course, of course." Zhu Ping didn't dare to say anything.
"After this is done, we will definitely ask for rewards for you." Zhang Hong was using both kindness and power.
"We don't dare." Zhu Ping hurriedly said politely. In the end, he couldn't help but ask, "What do the five daren want to do?"
"To capture the most wanted criminals of the empire. Zhu Daren has probably heard of them," Zhang Hong said.
"It's … … Lu Ping?" As expected, Zhu Ping knew. Or rather, there were very few people in the Xuan Army Empire who didn't know about these wanted criminals. Actually, the one with the highest bounty, Lu Ping, was the most popular.
"Yes. Zhu Daren, how much credit do you think this is?" Zhang Hong smiled.
"Yes yes yes." Zhu Ping responded, but his body was already covered in cold sweat. As expected! As expected, it was a battle between xiuzhe, and such terrifying and vicious opponents. The xiuzhe in their team were all in other fields of research. They didn't have any combat skills. Against such criminals, how could they help? As cannon fodder?
Zhu Ping was extremely nervous, but he didn't dare to ask. Looking at his subordinates, all of their faces were ashen. They had obviously heard of this name, and their thoughts were about the same as Zhu Ping.
"Let's first find a place for us brothers to rest, then make some food. We need to plan properly. If there's anything we need Zhang Daren's help with, we will tell you." Zhang Hong said.
"Of course." Zhang Hong controlled his crying tone and said. Then, he ordered two subordinates to arrange food and lodging for the five people. After that, he called Zhu Qi to his side and quietly asked him how he met the five people.
