The Rise of the Shen Family

v1 Chapter 229: Mobilize manpower

Just as Shen Ruiling looked at the magic talisman in his hand slightly stunned, the restriction at the door suddenly trembled and began to emit waves of spiritual power.

After realizing that the door ban was touched, Shen Ruiling quickly recovered, and then quickly walked towards the courtyard gate.

As the courtyard door opened, Shen Huanyan appeared in front of Shen Ruiling with a smile on his face.

"Four elders!" Shen Ruiling bowed his hands in a salute.

"You can be considered to be out of customs!"

Looking at Shen Ruiling who opened the door, Shen Huanyan said with a smile.

Shen Ruiling was a little embarrassed when Shen Huanyan said so.

Originally, he thought that alchemy would take two or three months at most, but he still miscalculated the time required to refine a furnace of Tier 3 pills.

After he finished refining the three furnaces of Huntian Pills, he found that he actually spent nearly four months.

Originally, he was going to leave the customs immediately, but when he was about to get up, there was a glimmer of enlightenment in his heart.

So he had to immediately retreat and practice hard, so that he has lasted for nearly half a year in this retreat.

I thought that it took me half a year to go to Pingzhou last time, and this time I went back to Pingzhou for so long again after less than two months.

For a whole year, he hadn't managed the affairs of Yangshan, and left them all to the Four Elders to take care of, and Shen Ruiling suddenly felt a little sad.

Seeing the jealous expression on Shen Ruiling's face, Shen Huanyan couldn't help but laughed, revealing deep wrinkles on his face.

"Okay, just kidding with you. You still have to focus on cultivation and leave the rest to me to take care of it!"

"Thank you four elders!" Shen Ruiling immediately bowed his hands and thanked him.

Then he spoke to Shen Huanyan again:

"Go into the house!"

"good!"

...

After Shen Huanyan sat down, Shen Ruiling asked:

"Four elders, has the situation on Yangshan been okay in the past six months?"

When asked by Shen Ruiling, Shen Huanyan's face again showed an expression of excitement. He squatted and sat up straight up immediately, and couldn't wait to speak:

"The situation is very good! I tell you that during this period of time, nine acres of spiritual fields have been opened up on Yangshan. In addition to the previous spiritual fields, there are now close to 40 acres of spiritual fields on the mountain!

This year's winter stock, the granary will almost no longer fit Linggu.

...

In Taoyuan, three peach trees have successfully advanced to become second-order high-grade spiritual plants because of Yangshan's spiritual veins being advanced to third-tier.

The most rare thing is that the original three second-order high-grade peach trees in Taoyuan have a tendency to advance to the third-order spirit wood!

...

Hearing all the good news, Shen Ruiling also showed a smile on his face.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, looked at Shen Huanyan and asked:

"How about the migration of mortals?"

"In the past six months, a total of more than 5,000 mortals have migrated from Binhu Town. They have all been settled in villages and towns under the mountain, and they have begun to spread around."

"The population of five thousand...somewhat small!" Shen Ruiling said with a sigh.

"This is only temporary. Considering that winter is about to pass, I asked Binhu Town to suspend migration. When the weather becomes warm in the coming spring, a large number of mortals will migrate over."

After hearing this, Shen Ruiling fell into deep thought, and after a while she spoke again:

"Four elders, do you estimate how many people can migrate from Binhu Town at most!"

"More than 10,000 will be close to 20,000!"

Shen Huanyan hesitated for a moment, then said.

Hearing that, Shen Ruiling nodded, Binhu Town has a population of 30,000 or 40,000, and it is enough to migrate half of it.

After being silent for a while, Shen Ruiling spoke apologetically:

"Four elders, you have to worry more about this migration, and you can organize them to repair the lake embankment when next spring comes!"

"Don't worry, this is my old man!" Shen Huanyan waved his hand and said disapprovingly.

Seeing Shen Huanyan saying this, Shen Ruiling felt relieved.

Immediately he handed the magic talisman in front of Shen Huanyan, and said:

"This was passed to me by the patriarch just now, so take a look!"

After receiving the magic talisman from Shen Ruiling, Shen Huanyan didn't dare to be careless, and quickly looked at it carefully.

As time passed slowly, a complicated look began to appear on his old face.

This look is an indescribable dignity, and there is another sorrow in this dignity.

After a long time, Shen Huanyan came back to his senses leisurely, with a sad expression on his face, and sighed:

"Another call-up order!"

At this time, his tone was full of worry and helplessness, because he knew that as long as he received the levy order, there would soon be another member of the clan to fall!

For a while, Shen Huanyan seemed to fall into memory all of a sudden, and scenes of familiar scenes appeared before his eyes.

...

More than sixty years ago, when Shen Huanchi had just successfully built the foundation, the Shen family received a call from Qingyunmen.

At that time, the family had just eased from the brink of extinction, and there was not much manpower to mobilize at all.

However, due to the strict order issued by the Qingyunmen, Shen Huanchi had to take a few of their Huan-shaped clan and a few older Jing-shaped clan.

The tragic mission of that time is still fresh in Shen Huanyan's memory, and his tribe will die tragically by his side almost anytime.

If it weren't for Shen Huanchi to turn the tide in the end, most of their Qi training monks would never come back!

...

As a witness to that mission, Shen Huanyan knew better than anyone else that the levy was **** behind.

Those sect monks don't take the monks of these vassal families seriously, and they often use them as cannon fodder at dangerous moments!

So now seeing that Qingyunmen has issued a call-up order once again, he can't help but worry about the family and the people.

After seeing the worried look on Shen Huanyan's face, Shen Ruiling couldn't help but sighed.

The family's several declines were almost all related to this Qingyunmen call-up order.

Every time they perform a conscription mission, the people who have been called will suffer heavy casualties and shake the foundation of the family.

It can be said that this enlistment order has always been a nightmare that the Shen family can't get rid of!

But even so, as long as Qingyunmen issues a call-up order, they must be accepted, and they cannot refuse it at all!

This is not only the case of the Shen family, but also the various cultivation families living in the four counties of Qingyun.

These vassal families depend on the Qingyun Gate and live by the Zongmen at the same time, they must also become the chess pieces of the Zongmen at their mercy!

After a while, Shen Huanyan also recovered, and asked anxiously:

"Do you know what happened this time?"

Shen Ruiling shook her head and said:

"I don't know yet, I won't know the specifics until I return to Yunbifeng!"

"All right!"

"The patriarch said that the number of clansmen in the late stage of Qi training on Yunbifeng is not enough, so I asked me to transfer a few people from Yangshan back, and now there are free people on Yangshan."

Shen Huanyan thought for a while, then responded:

"This is no problem, I will arrange, when will you go back"

"Let them prepare today, and tomorrow I will take them back to Yunbifeng!"

"good!"

After speaking, Shen Huanyan turned around and left, hurriedly arranging manpower for Shen Ruiling.

Here, Shen Ruiling glanced at the magic talisman in his hand again, and then put it into the storage bag, leaving him alone.

After all, it's useless to think about it now, so let's go back to Yun Bifeng first.

...

On the second day, the first ray of sunlight in the morning had just been scattered on the top of Yangshan Mountain.

The five clansmen who cultivated in the later stage of Qi training stood neatly in Shen Ruiling's small courtyard.

After a while ~lightnovelpub.net~Shen Ruiling walked out of the house slowly and cast his eyes on the five people in the courtyard.

Of these five people, two are at the eighth level of Qi training, but one of them is already at the eighth level, and one step away from the ninth level. The remaining three people are all at the seventh level of Qi training.

Looking at the five people in front of him, Shen Ruiling really didn't know how many people would come back after this mission.

Although a little sad, Shen Ruiling knew that it was not the time yet, and said in a deep voice:

"Go back to Yunbifeng first!"

"Yes!"

...

After a while, several figures left Yangshan and embarked on the way back to Yunbi Peak.

On the mountainside of Yangshan, looking at these people who left, Shen Huanyan's face once again showed a worried look.

It's really unknowable whether they can come back if they leave!
