Netherworld Immortal

Dongjun City is located in the center of the East Xiaoxian Realm.

On the top of the tall city, the three gilt characters of "Dongjun City" shine brightly in the sun.

Many well-dressed sergeants inside and outside the city gate were checking the crowds entering and leaving the city gate in order.

"It is said that the drought in Xijun City is very serious, and many people in Beicheng starved to death."

"Fortunately, our East County is located in the upper reaches of the "Taihe River". Although the water source of the "Taihe River" is far less abundant than in previous years, it can barely guarantee the irrigation water for farmland after being intercepted by the dam."

"It was rumored that a few days ago someone came from Xijun City to borrow water."

"Didn't you just go away in despair, lent them the water in West County, what can we drink in East County?"

"So, the two sides are going to fight again for the water source, and now the army is already in a state of combat readiness."

At the door, several people who looked like ordinary people chatted with each other.

"Don't talk about military and national affairs in public, everyone is gone." At this time, a man dressed as an officer walked over and said loudly.

Several people saw the officer walking towards this side, and they dispersed with their own interests.

An underground secret room in Dongjun City.

A middle-aged man in a white brocade shirt sat cross-legged. The man looked handsome, but his eye sockets were dark blue, and he looked like he hadn't slept for many days.

A fist-sized crystal ball hovered in the air in front of him.The crystal ball rotates slowly, and wisps of red, yellow or green aura continuously appear on it.The man in white hit the crystal ball with a spell, and the three-color spiritual energy condensed in the air, and all of them were sucked into the mouth and nose by the middle-aged man.As the three-color aura was inhaled again and again, the dark blue color in the eye sockets of the man in white gradually receded.

After half an hour, the man in white breathed out and finished work, carefully putting the crystal ball into his arms.Standing up, his eyes glowed, like a smoker who just smoked opium, with an extremely satisfied expression on his face.

The man in white walked to the wall of the secret room, and touched a dragon-head-shaped silver candlestick on the wall with his hand.The candlestick rotated slightly, and a secret door appeared on the originally neat and smooth wall amidst the "click" sound.

The man in white walked into the secret door, and the wall slowly closed.

In a spacious and bright study room.

A bookshelf against the wall was slowly opened, and a man in white came out from it.

Sitting in front of the desk, the man in white looked at the thick folds of books stacked on the desk, picked up the top one, flipped through it a few times, and then threw the folds aside.

"Li Mansion." The man in white called loudly.

After a while, the door was gently pushed open, and a dignified young servant walked in.

"The humble Li's mansion is waiting for orders, what orders does your lord have?"

"I've been in the study for the past two days, has anyone looked for me?"

"Reporting to Princess Dong, apart from the wife of the city lord who comes to visit every day, the lord Shoufu also came yesterday. I told them that you need to temporarily retreat for two days, and you can't see guests yet."

"Well, you've done a good job, step back, and inform Mr. Shoufu that my retreat is over, and invite him to meet me in the study."

"Follow your orders!"

Speaking of me, Li Fu retreated respectfully.

Just as Li Fu walked out for a while, there was a "squeak", and the door of the study was gently pushed open.

"Tianming, are you there?" A coquettish female voice came from behind the door.

"I'm here." The man in white replied quickly.

After a while, a woman approached.The woman was dressed in a gorgeous palace attire, tall and slender, with large breasts and a slender waist, a egg-shaped face with phoenix eyes, and two straight eyebrows exuding a dignified air.

The woman came closer, looking at Princess Dong with her beautiful eyes, with a worried expression on her face.

"Tianming, when will your old injury heal? It's been on and off for almost a year. I asked the doctor to take a look, but you refused."

"Don't worry, ma'am, this injury is just a bit difficult, and it's not a serious problem right now. Now we are at war with Xijun, if news of my injury spreads, it may disturb the morale of the army."

"I'm just worried that if this drags on, the condition will be detrimental to your health."

"Don't worry, ma'am, I'm sure about this matter."

Dong Junzhu said, stretched out his hand to grasp the woman's jade hand, and gently embraced the woman into his arms.

The woman put her head on his shoulder, showing a gentle gesture.

The two whispered to each other, you and me, the husband and wife are more loving.

"Master Shoufu is here."

The voice of Li Fu, the servant, came from outside the door.

The woman quickly moved her body away from Princess Dong.

"You have business to do, so I'm going back first." After saying that, she smiled like a smile, her beautiful eyes raised, and the concubine's love was in the corners of her eyes.

The woman had just walked out of the study when a middle-aged man walked in from the door.This person is dressed in a blue Confucian brocade shirt, with regular features and a gentle appearance.

"Mr. Dongling sees the City Lord." After speaking, he bowed deeply.

"The first assistant does not need to be formal, please sit down."

"I've been in seclusion for the past two days, so I don't know what's going on with the deployment of the army?"

"My subordinates are about to report this matter. Our troops have begun to gather at the border and will complete their deployment soon."

"Well, we are sure to attack the North City of West County first this time."

"According to reliable information, a large number of disaster victims have flooded into the northern city, and the precautions are lax. It is expected that it will be vulnerable."

"The chief assistant of Xijun City, Linghu Xia, used troops cunningly. He suffered from this person in the last battle. In this battle, we must not underestimate the enemy."

"What the Lord City Lord said is very true. The only variable now is the power of Qinghua Mountain City. If we rush into the North City of the West County rashly, it will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the East County City. Although there are not many people in Qinghua Mountain, they are all fierce. Bandits. Our agreement with Qinghua Mountain is just a piece of waste paper for bandits like them, if they take the opportunity to attack our Dongjun City, the consequences will be disastrous."

"I'm also worried about this matter. Originally, Qinghua Mountain was nothing to be afraid of. A few days ago, a new leader named "Yetu" suddenly appeared. He fought fiercely for two days and two nights, and I only won with half moves. If this person's cultivation level improves, I am afraid that no one in this small virtuous world can match him. If this person is not eliminated, he will become a serious disaster in the future."

"Don't worry, the city lord, the subordinates have a plan."

"Speak quickly."

"A few days ago, I used the Jieshen Pill as a bait to let the "Three Demons" of Qinghua Mountain secretly hijack Lu Qingyu, the only daughter of Lu Wujie, the lord of Xijun City. The original intention was to distract Lu Wujie, so that we would have an advantage in the ring competition. .Although it was unsuccessful, this incident proves that the deputy leaders of Qinghua Mountain and the leader of Yetu are not of one mind. We can release the benefits again and let the "three evil spirits" encourage Yetu to assassinate Lu Wujie. When they both lose, It's the day we send troops to Xijun."

"It's just that the weight of the "three evil spirits" is probably not enough."

"We only need to give up the border city "Yuhua Pass" in the southwest of Qinghua Mountain to Qinghua Mountain City. Qinghua Mountain City is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The direction of Yuhua Pass is its only weakness. We have an agreement with it first, and we will Yuhuaguan was given to Yetu as a free gift, and I only asked Yetu not to invade our East County during the war between the two sides. I think Yetu would definitely accept it. At the same time, we let the wind go, saying that Qinghua Mountain City has already been separated from our East County. An agreement was reached between the counties, and the troops will be divided into two groups to take the West County. In this way, the West County City will definitely adopt tactics to defeat each other, and the first target must be Yuhua Pass. At that time, let the "Three Evils" encourage Yetu to assassinate Lu Wujie. Most likely it will work.”

"If this plan fails, wouldn't the Yuhua pass be lost for nothing?"

"The worst result is that Qinghua Mountain City occupies Yuhua Pass for nothing. Once it occupies Yuhua Pass, one-third of the people must be allocated to guard Yuhua Pass. In this way, even if Qinghua Mountain City wants to fish in troubled waters, it will Taking care of ourselves can also prevent Qinghua Mountain City from stabbing us in the back. Once we defeat Xijun, Yuhua Pass and Qinghua Mountain will be in our pocket sooner or later."

"Okay, let's follow Shoufu's plan!"

.....

On Juyi Hall in Qinghua Mountain City.

The chief leader, Ye Tu, and the other nine deputy chiefs were all in the hall.

"Dongjun City just sent someone here, saying that they want to send Yuhua Pass to our Qinghua Mountain City, and only ask that we not be allowed to intervene in one of them after the war. I intended to accept it, but I guess there must be a conspiracy. Yuhua Pass is not only the throat fortress in front of Qinghua Mountain City, but also a strategic point on the border of the West County. We will be regarded as a thorn in the side of the West County when we enter Yuhua Pass, and they will inevitably attack us aggressively. Therefore, I specially asked everyone to discuss this matter. thing." Ye Tu said.

"We have a limited number of people in Qinghua Mountain City, so we can't occupy such a large area. It's a quiet corner in Qinghua Mountain. Why go to the muddy water between the east and west counties." Xuan Taoist said.

"Don't want it for nothing, don't want it at this time, can we guarantee that they won't turn around and attack us once the war stops?" Taoist Leng said.

......

Everyone expresses their opinions, and the attitudes of wanting and not wanting are equally divided.

But the three of Xu Yang have not expressed their attitude on this matter for a long time.

Yetu looked at Xu Yang and said, "Second leader, tell me whether you want it or not."

Seeing Ye Tu asking himself, Xu Yang replied: "I think it should be. The benefits of wanting it are obvious. With Yuhua Pass, Qinghua Mountain City will be more unbreakable. The intention of Dongjun is obvious, that is, to use Yuhua Pass as a bait, Let Qinghua Mountain act as a pawn, thus consuming the combat power of Xijun.

The relatively weak Qinghua Mountain is sandwiched between the powerful West County and East County. If it wants to survive, it must have both sides, and finally form a tripartite confrontation, so that it can last for a long time.Occupying Yuhua Pass is the first step in the development and growth of Qinghua Mountain.

Dongjun wants us to fight Xijun, as long as we don't fight, we can send people to lobby Xijun, promising that Qinghua Mountain City will not attack Xijun first.The army of the East Commandery has already begun to deploy. After a long time, seeing that the West Commandery does not attack Yuhua Pass, they will naturally lose their temper and must attack the West Commandery on their own initiative.We sit back and reap the benefits, so why not do it. "

"What the second leader said is reasonable, so let's put this matter aside for now. I'll think about it when I go back. This meeting is over, everyone should leave." Yetu didn't make a decision right away.

At night, Yetu summoned Xu Yang alone.

"I have considered your suggestion, but how can we convince Xijun City that we will keep our promise and not attack them?"

"Brother Yetu, don't you think that after Qinghua Mountain City and Dongjun reached an agreement, the West County was surprisingly calm?" Xu Yang didn't answer, but asked instead.

Ye Tu frowned, and said, "You mean to say that spies from the West County have sneaked into Qinghua Mountain City?"

"If my guess is correct, this person is likely to be one of the leaders. That's why Qinghua Mountain has no intention of infringing on the interests of Xijun, so it will be accurately transmitted back to Xijun, and Xijun has not taken decisive action to deal with it. Qinghua Mountain City."

After hearing Xu Yang's words, Yetu's green eyes flashed with a ruthless look.

"The chief should not be too hasty. Wouldn't it be better for this spy to leave him here for us to use. To be honest, I had a relationship with Lu Qingyu, the eldest lady of Xijun. As long as someone sends Xijun a letter from me The letter clearly informs Lu Qingyu that Qinghua Mountain has no intention of uniting with East County to attack West County, and the spies among us will definitely send the same message to West County. I guarantee that even if we accept Yuhua Pass, West County will not embarrass Qing Huashan."
