Distant Mountain Battle Song

Chapter 219 Family is really important

The origin of industry on Earth was boiling water.

Yun Ce vaguely felt that the industrial origins here must be special breeding.

Peng Zeng is a one-man pharmaceutical factory. Although his output is a bit lower, his medicines are very effective, especially his rapid growth liquid, which Yun Ce personally tested and found to be extremely effective.

In Yun Ce's eyes, those who had cultivated internal energy were like walking pills.

Now, a hairless monster has appeared that can boost the leather and weapons manufacturing industries, along with a blue-faced monster whose body can exude lubricant. Many resources can be created from nothing in an instant.

The oil oozing from the blue-faced monster was crucial to its journey; if it weren't for the oil, the dragging along would have been enough to turn it into a pile of minced meat.

However, it didn't. Apart from suffering a bit on gravel roads, it was very smooth on grass, and in the water, it seemed to be enjoying itself.

Later, Yun Ce discovered this and started to deliberately choose to walk on gravel roads.

At the beginning, due to the vigorous secretion of oil, the friction was not too great. However, as the chestnut horse increased its speed, its oil secretion rate could not keep up with the consumption, and its skin and flesh quickly began to shrink, turn black, and become as hard as iron.

You should know that friction is a great threat to steel and iron. After traveling another ten miles, it finally cried out, "Young master, spare my life!"

Yun Ce pretended not to hear and continued forward until the creature, which had originally had a blue face, then a black face, and was now almost white, was truly on its last breath. He finally stopped and turned back to look at it coldly.

"I am a tree branch from Tianding Mountain."

"This name is very famous, should I know it?"

“Young Master may not know, but Liu Changsheng does. Fifteen years ago, Liu Changsheng came to Tianding Mountain, and we met.”

Yun Ce couldn't understand why he was being punished so soon after he bragged a little, with people all over the world starting to follow his example and bragged.

Who is Liu Changsheng? He must have gone to Tian Ding Mountain to discuss important matters with the leader of the demons. Yun Ce doesn't think that this Shu Tuo is an important figure in Tian Ding Mountain.

So they continued on their horse.

"Oh dear, I really have seen Liu Changsheng. When he entered the main hall, I was standing at the bottom of the stone steps outside the hall. Liu Changsheng must have seen me."

"I'm known as a gossip on Mount Tianding. Nothing on the mountain can escape my notice. If you need anything, young master, I can even tell you how many holes Black Wind, the king of Mount Tianding, has on his feet."

Yun Ce didn't know why he needed to know how many holes were in Hei Feng's feet. From his brief conversation with Shu Tuo, he had gained a basic understanding of the guy. He was a cunning chatterbox, or a deep-thinking person who used chatter as a facade to deceive people.

Yun Ce planned to hand it over to Feng An after returning. Feng An had been trained in a short period of time. Given some time, no matter how cunning the tree tuft was, Feng An would definitely present him with a copy of the tree tuft memorandum, and would guarantee that every word recorded in it was true.

Regardless of the origin of these demons, the most likely explanation is that they are the result of the Guifang people's own chaotic evolution.

Just as the Guifang people are a sin committed by the Han people, now it is time for them to reap what they sow.

This kind of scene also occurred during the Song Dynasty, when the Liao Dynasty suppressed the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty suppressed the Liao Dynasty, and in the end, everyone was wiped out by the Mongols.

Now, Yun Ce really wants to know who the Mongols in the Han Dynasty world are.

Back at Jingkou Pass, even Zhang Min, who was used to seeing Yun Ce in all sorts of ways, was speechless with astonishment at the incomparably handsome young nobleman before her.

When no one else was around, he pulled Yun Ce up and down several times, and finally even pulled down his pants to check the mole on his left buttock before letting out a sigh of relief and saying, "You'll stay at Jingkou Pass tonight, and you're not allowed to go back."

Yun Ce nodded. In this world, handsome men are actually rarer than beautiful women. Men like to enjoy beautiful women, but they don't know that women like to enjoy handsome men even more.

He had enjoyed Zhang Min's beauty quite a bit in the past, and now Zhang Min was enjoying his handsomeness. This was only natural between husband and wife.

Zhang Min called her a concubine, but it was just a title, and this title was only valid between her and Eji.

However, when night fell and Zhang Min pounced on him like a wolf, Yun Ce felt a little regretful. He hadn't even seen Zhang Min's glowing butt all night.

"I'll dress like this from now on, it's so charming."

Despite being busy all night, Zhang Min was still refreshed. She picked up Yun Ce's head, kissed him fiercely on the face several times, and said smugly, "I never thought my husband would be so handsome."

After saying that, he kicked Yun Ce and said, "The child you have in the future will definitely be good-looking."

Looking at Zhang Min's flat stomach, Yun Ce obediently put his ear to it. There was no sound of a baby moving inside, only the gurgling of the stomach due to hunger.

"Didn't you have dinner?"

"I didn't have time, I was too busy taking a shower." "Would you like something to eat now?"

"I'm not eating. Please, hurry up and get over here. Don't think you can fool me with cooking. I'd rather starve to death than eat today."

What could possibly make Zhang Min, who loves food more than anything, forget to eat? There's only one answer: an incredibly handsome man.

That's great. Treating yourself as a gift to your wife is a wonderful opportunity to strengthen your relationship. It's cost-effective and has only benefits, no drawbacks.

After getting up in the morning, Yun Ce planned to hold a meeting about expanding and repairing Jingkou Pass. When he arrived at the meeting hall, he found that the usually bustling hall was now empty except for He Qingfang.

“Your concubine led a team to the underground base at Jin Suo Guan. Before leaving, she saw you sleeping soundly and told me to tell you that you should dress like this again next time you come to Jing Kou Guan.”

Knowing that He Qingfang is now Zhang Min's best friend, how can they discuss such private topics?
"Where did Qin Shu go? Didn't we agree to discuss the expansion of Jingkou Pass today?"

He Qingfang pointed to the blueprints on the wall and said, "It's been ten days now, and I have to say, since the Fire Clan came, many of our construction projects have been progressing very smoothly."

Feng An said, "If the general wants to wipe out the Fire Clan in one fell swoop, the general needs to personally make a trip to Danwang Mountain."

Yun Ce thought for a moment and said, "Is this Huo Liao's request?"

He Qingfang shook her head and said, "This is the hope of all of us. We only have four territories in total. Xiangcheng goes without saying. There is no need for large-scale renovations there yet. The prestige that the general left in Xiangcheng is enough to make Xiangcheng as stable as Mount Tai for now."

The construction progress in the other three locations is severely delayed, mainly due to a lack of technical personnel. If the Fire Clan could fully submit, these problems would be avoided.

Yun Ce thought for a moment and said to He Qingfang, "I once discussed the Yun Family Manor and the construction of Jingkou Pass with Cao Kun. Do you know how long Cao Kun thinks it will take us to manage these two places, one outside the pass and one inside the pass, well?"

Cao Kun said thirty years.

He Qingfang frowned and said, "Is this a warning from Cao Kun?"

Yun Ce nodded and said, "That's right."

He Qingfang said with a gloomy face, "The Guifang people are already making moves. We don't have thirty years to waste."

Yun Ce laughed and said, "Therefore, the focus of construction should be on Jin Suo Guan and Jing Kou Guan. It doesn't matter if Yun Clan Manor is delayed a bit."

He Qingfang said, "The groves of trees that hinder the cavalry's advance, along with the river network digging, are indispensable."

Yun Ce nodded and said, "These are all small steps, and the results won't be visible in a short time. They can be carried out simultaneously, as long as the Yun Family Manor doesn't undergo large-scale expansion."

After all, in the minds of Cao Kun and his ilk, without city walls, there was no defense, and therefore, it wasn't considered their territory.

He Qingfang sighed and said, "We still need to wait. We need to wait for those children who are still studying and practicing martial arts to grow up quickly. Otherwise, we will always be able to only be on the defensive and will never be able to turn defense into offense."

Yun Ce laughed and said, "Let's just endure it."

There's no problem with Jingkou Pass. Whether it's Zhang Min, Qin Shu, or He Qingfang, they are all quite capable people. With them around, this place will definitely be safe and sound.

Zhang Min always went to the Jin Suo Guan underground palace, mainly to recruit people for her future intelligence work. Because she couldn't hire outsiders, she could only find people from the group of teenagers and had to train them personally. She was very busy every day. Only last night did she truly indulge herself.

Upon returning to the Yun Clan Manor, Eji, who had led the women back from the fields, appeared quite shy and hesitant when she saw Yun Ce.

In the past, she would always throw herself at Yun Ce without a care in the world. She loved it when Yun Ce carried her on his back and spun her around in circles. She would only get off him after he patted her bottom a few times and pretended to be angry.

This time was different. When she came back, she saw Yun Ce holding a book in one hand and a small teacup in the other, drinking roasted barley tea. This girl actually rubbed her hands together and circled around him several times, but she didn't dare to get close.

Yun Ce was secretly pleased with himself, but feigned annoyance and put his teacup on the small table, saying, "It's only been a few days, and you don't even recognize me?"

Eji cheered and skillfully jumped into Yun Ce's arms, rubbing his face vigorously and saying, "So what if you killed three thousand people in Xiangcheng? Why do you have to dress yourself up like this, looking so harmless?"

My husband is a great hero, not a spineless coward who relies on his looks. I have always hoped that he would return with the murderous aura of someone who has killed three thousand people.

How did he become such a spineless coward who's always wallowing in women's company?

Hearing Eji say this, Yun Ce couldn't help but smile bitterly. After all, it was Eji. Only she could accurately grasp why he had made such a big show of it.

As Eji said, she was really worried that after killing three thousand people on the battlefield, her family life would be completely changed by fear.

That would be a complete failure as a person.
