"Up to you."
Zhang Dongyun stopped there and changed the topic. "Judging from the way you attacked just now, you should be able to break through to the eighth realm, right?"
"With Big Brother's help, I'm not in a hurry now."
Shen Herong said, "I've changed my path. I want to explore it slowly this time."
"I'm looking forward to it." Zhang Dongyun nodded and stood up.
The girl smiled. "Take care, Big Brother."
Zhang Dongyun's figure disappeared from the academy.
Shen Herong unfolded the paper and dipped the brush in ink.
Soon, 14 words appeared on the paper.
"Mountains and rivers are full of doubts, but there is a glimmer of hope."
The girl put down the brush and quietly looked at the poem on the paper, deep in thought.
Mr. Dark Cloud, who was Zhang Dongyun's projection, clapped his hands.
Elder Yun Chen's Nascent Soul returned to his body.
The old Taoist priest woke up, but he could feel that the Nascent Soul in his body was still trapped in a cage.
He looked at Mr. Dark Cloud in front of him and asked with a wry smile, "What do you want to do?"
Zhang Dongyun laughed inwardly when he heard that.
[Random Guardian Mission 3.2 — Kill or capture Elder Fuzhen Guan Daoist Yun Chen who entered the city.]
[City Lord's guest, Shen Herong, captured Daoist Yun Chen who entered the city. Random Guardian Mission 3.2 completed. Obtained 500 experience points to level up.]
'First, of course, I want to capture you and get 500 experience points to level up.
On the other hand, of course, it's because the Fuzhen Guan has always had a deep foundation in Longbei County.
'Defeating you, or at least convincing you, will facilitate the future development of Chang' an. '
Mr. Dark Cloud did not need to explain more to Elder Yun Chen. He just brought him to the mine.
Here, the old Taoist priest saw Tang Chi, Xie Zhao, and the others.
When everyone saw Elder Yun Chen, their hearts were filled with grief, indignation, and helplessness.
"Uncle-Master …"
Tang Chi smiled bitterly. "What excuse did they use to attack you?"
Elder Yun Chen's face darkened. Instead of answering, he asked, "What about you?"
Tang Chi lowered his head. "I stepped into the city gate with my left foot first."
"…" Elder Yun Chen opened his mouth, but no sound came out in the end.
A Deacon of Fuzhen Guan said hatefully, "They've been looking for trouble since the beginning!"
Elder Yun Chen, Tang Chi, and the others sighed helplessly.
They had continuously underestimated the other party's lack of character and shamelessness.
If they had known earlier, they would have made other plans, whether it was to start a war or to seek help.
Why did he have to be like a joke now, giving away one after another and falling into someone else's trap for nothing?
Including Elder Yunchen, who was the second most powerful master, and the Yunluo cover, which was a top-notch magic weapon, almost half of Fuzhen Guan's forces were lost in Chang 'an City.
The Mountain Gate was still under pressure from the Mirror Moon Tower and Qingbokgung. It was in imminent danger.
"Qingbokgung, Mirror Moon Tower, the Secret Pavilion, and the Eastern Tang Army all had people killed here."
A Taoist priest of Fuzhen Guan cheered everyone on. "They won't let this go. They'll definitely come to Chang 'an to settle the score."
When Elder Yun Chen heard this, his frown did not ease.
"Our temple is also facing the invasion of Mirror Moon Tower and Qingbokgung. I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for much longer."
When everyone heard this, their hearts sank.
Elder Yun Chen pulled himself together and asked, "Have the people from Qingbokgung, Mirror Moon Tower, and the Secret Pavilion also been sent to this mine to work and suffer humiliation?"
Tang Chi sighed. "Some of them are here, but some of them are exempt from this hard work."
He and Xie Zhao smiled wryly.
"There are people in Chang 'an who are learning Taoism. That old man Dark Cloud captured some Taoist disciples and sent them to the people learning Taoism in the city.
At first, he picked people from among us. Later, he threw all of us to the mine and exchanged a few from Qingbokgung. "
Elder Yun Chen was speechless.
Feeding people …
That was like being a target for others.
Compared to being a coolie in the mine, it was hard to say which was more humiliating.
"There are a few disciples from Mirror Moon Tower who are good at taming Thunder Dragon Colt, so they are exempt from working in the mine," Tang Chi continued.
Elder Yun Chen's white eyebrows twitched. "Thunder Dragon Colt? I remember that it's … "
Tang Chi nodded. "It's the strange beast that Mirror Moon Tower has been wantonly taming. When they came to Chang 'an, many Thunder Dragon Colt accompanied them. Later, they were captured with them. Now … it's part of Chang' an."
Just like their Fuzhen Guan's Yunluo cover …
Tang Chi felt bitter in his heart. It was because of him that the Yunluo cover was lost in Chang 'an.
Once they entered Chang 'an, their lives were no longer in their own hands. They had to work in the mine even if they did not want to.
In Daming Palace, City Lord Zhang was calm and in a good mood.
Two groups of people from Mirror Moon Tower and Qingbokgung were sent to the mine. In addition to the two Taoist seventh realm experts, Gu Hechuan and Yun Chen, the mining efficiency of the turquoise crystal vein was much higher than before.
At the current rate, the Dahe Longmen could still continue to consume.
However, Zhang Dongyun did not sell all the ores to them.
He was thinking about how to open another business.
He definitely had to open another business. It was not a bad thing to have a few more business partners.
The problem now was who to choose as the second business partner.
If Fuzhen Guan was willing to cooperate, it was still a good choice.
However, were they obedient now?
With Qingbokgung and Mirror Moon Tower pressuring Fuzhen Guan on the other side, they might not be able to hold on much longer.
Even Qingbokgung and Mirror Moon Tower had people who had fallen into Chang 'an's hands. He wondered if they would let Fuzhen Guan off because of this. In turn, they would rope in Fuzhen Guan to join forces against a common enemy and attack Chang' an together.
Zhang Dongyun was naturally not afraid of them attacking the city together. However, if that happened, the turquoise crystal business would not be easy to hand over to Fuzhen Guan.
"Tingshan Academy might be a good choice. With An Ge and Xu Xingzhi as the middleman …" Zhang Dongyun thought to himself.
However, there was no hurry. Xu Xingzhi and Shen Herong first focused on completing Master Zhang's plan to eradicate illiteracy.
The illiteracy rate in Chang 'an was greatly reduced with the two Confucian masters putting down their pride to become teachers.
In addition to teaching personally, Shen Herong and Xu Xingzhi also trained some of the original scholars.
These scholars were scattered in the city and set up private schools to form an educational network.
With Zhang Dongyun, the City Lord, backing them up, no matter if they were teachers or students, they would have no worries.
As time went by, the atmosphere of learning in Chang 'an became more and more popular.
Seeing that things were on the right track, Zhang Dongyun, as the mayor, began to think about other aspects.
The characteristic of the system was that if the previous construction task was not completed, the next construction task would not be released.
However, as the designer of the original game, Zhang Dongyun more or less remembered some of the tasks that he had set.
Although he was not sure whether the content and order of the tasks would change in this world, he could still make some preparations in advance.
"What prescriptions are recorded in your pharmacopoeia?"
Mr. Dark Cloud, who looked like an old man in black, asked Guo Zi, the head of the Hanshan school in front of him.
