Chapter 51
After this incident, there were no twists and turns along the way. The news of the comeback of the Crouching Tiger Gang www.biquge.info Crouching Tiger came out, and all parties moved.
First of all, the Jiaolong Gang took the initiative to spread to the area previously controlled and sent people to the Crouching Tiger Gang to make peace. The exact amount of compensation is not known to outsiders.
The Crouching Tigers also welcomed a guest half a month later, this guest was extremely mysterious, only stayed here for half a day and left, and met less than three people. Nothing was specifically discussed, and no fourth person knew.
The young disciples of the Crouching Tiger Gang were all excited because Liu Lao Ghost was so strong, hoping to exterminate the Jiaolong Gang and avenge the dead disciples, so they asked for battle. The high-level leaders of the Crouching Tiger Gang did not agree to the requests of the disciples in the gang, nor did they hunt down Yan Nanxi, Black Wolf and others, which can be regarded as a recovery. But the name Liu Laogui was imprinted into Zou Li's heart.
After Zou Li returned to the gang, he did not go to the main hall with the convoy, but returned home directly. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Wang Lao'er greeted him and pulled left and right behind Zou Li. Zou Li looked funny, "Wang Lao'er, what do you see?"
"Childe, Childe has worked hard all the way! I didn't look at anything, just look----。 Wang Lao'er was taken aback, and immediately said with a smile on his face.
"Wang Lao'er, I know what you see, Wang Er has not returned, and is still on the jade mine. Zou Lidao.
"You told her to mine?" Wang Lao'er said in surprise.
She just lived in the courtyard where I lived at the time, and I went directly to Fangshan County because it was inconvenient to take her, so I let her stay. Next time, when the big guys go, they will come back with the convoy. Zou Li smiled angrily.
"Yes, yes, yes, I said, how can Gongzi be willing to let Yu'er go mining?" Wang Lao'er said with a sneer on his face.
"Who are these two?" asked again.
"These are the two boys I collected in Fangshan County, one is named Zou Shan and the other is Zou Mei. In the future, Wang Lao'er will teach more. Then he turned to Zou Shan and Zou Mei and said: "This is Yu'er's grandfather, you will also be called Grandpa Wang in the future, you have rich life experience, and you will have to ask more questions about what you don't understand in the future." ”
"Where! The little old man has just been obsessed for decades. Wang Lao'er said with a smile on his face.
Zou Li also ignored it, and said to Zou Shan and Zou Mei: "You can find a room downstairs to live in, and I will look for you again if you have something." We must practice diligently and not be lazy. Well, tonight's dinner, go to the restaurant next to the outer hall square in front of you to buy, there are dozens of taels of silver here, you take it first, after settling down, Zou Shan will go to buy it. ”
After pausing, he saw that Zou Mei was also looking at him, and then said, "Zou Mei should go too! Zou Mei had a smile on her face.
It seems that women need a lot of things. Zou Li thought secretly.
Zou Li returned to the gang, everything returned to before, Zou Li had no ministry, and the errand of guarding the jade mine was also canceled, except for the occasional meal every day, the rest of the time was practice.
After practicing, he took a walk around the yard, and he was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but there were a few more people in the yard, especially wherever he went, Zou Shan followed. Later, I got used to it, and I also felt that there were more people and it was lively. There is no need to blindly practice hard work, and it is better to combine work and rest.
However, no matter where he goes, there is a tail, which still makes Zou Li unbearable. So he asked Zou Shan to follow when he had something to do, and he had nothing to do to practice or deal with the miscellaneous things in the yard.
Ten days later, the reward in the gang came down, and Zou Li killed an innate martial artist and a martial arts powerhouse alone. After the resolution of the Supreme Elders, Zou Li's reward was compared to the treatment of innate martial artists.
The specific rewards for this battle are: four spirit stones, five second-grade low-grade elixirs, ten first-grade elixirs, and one hundred taels of purple gold. Later, a notice of the location of the cave house was also attached, asking Zou Li to go to the main hall to choose a cave house within ten days, and after the address was confirmed, the gang will build according to Zou Li's requirements.
The construction cost of the cave house is according to the unified regulations of the gang, and the gang contributes 300 taels of gold, and the excess part is borne by Zou Li himself.
Zou Li said secretly: "The excess part is from me, so is the unused part of it to be replenished by me?" These Zou Li just slandered in his heart, of course he didn't say it.
For the rewards in the gang, Zou Li is most satisfied with the spirit stone, the second-grade elixir. As for the elixir, it can only be rewarded to his younger brothers, sisters and jade.
The main hall is located at the foot of Crouching Tiger Mountain, there are many places to choose from, and Wang Gang Master suggested that Zou Li still choose the cave mansion used by the predecessors of the Crouching Tiger Gang. After all, although the requirements for innate martial artists to choose the cave are not exactly the same, its geography must be the best available.
At present, there are more than ten more in the gang to choose from.
However, some caves have collapsed because they have been uninhabited for a long time, and these uninhabited caves do not mean that this place is not good, but that the Crouching Tiger Gang has regulations, and non-congenital martial artists cannot open and build caves, even the gang leader can't, otherwise it will be occupied by someone long ago.
Zou Li affirmed the suggestion of the Wang Gang Master, and after looking at a few places, he chose a valley located under the main peak, between the outer hall and the main hall, to be precise, a protruding flat land, which covers an area of about twenty or thirty acres. This place is on the left side of the main peak of Wohu Mountain, right side of the cliff, under the cliff is the main channel of the Qing River.
If there is only one flat land, this land is not enough. Interestingly, along the cliff a mountain ridge protrudes, and the main peak is connected, but not completely connected together, but forms an independent small peak, this mountain peak is not high, only a dozen zhang, but very dangerous. There is also a small valley behind the peak, which is not large, only about twenty acres. A dilapidated cave door was in the middle of a small mountain, and when you walked into the cave, there were seven or eight stone chambers inside. One large and seven small, the large one looks like a reception room, with a walkway in the middle leading to the back valley.
The most interesting thing is that there is a canal along the foot of the mountain in the back valley, which seems to have been dug by hand. However, at this time, the canal was dry, and after walking a few miles along the canal, there was a stream, and the stream rushed down and flowed into the Qing River.
Zou Li nodded, and checked the two valleys in front and back, the back should be the land of plant medicine, there was a mess of stones in front, and there were obviously some collapsed stone pavilions, which were now all covered by all kinds of vegetation.
Although the geographical location is much worse than the others, in terms of aura, it is a point or two stronger than other places. And that's exactly what Zou Li needs.
When Zou Li reported to the Wang Gang Leader, the Wang Gang Leader said with a little regret: "Actually, there are a few other places that are good. ”
Zou Li said: "I'm a happy person, let's do it here!"
Wang Gangzhu said: "Since you have decided, let it be you." ”
The next day, the Wang gang master transferred dozens of craftsmen, Zou Li told his meaning, these craftsmen were very clear, extremely intelligent, and had rich experience in building caves, so they could naturally understand Zou Li's meaning thoroughly. At the same time, it can also draw inferences from one another and improve it according to the local situation.
After March, a new cave was allocated, some pavilions, rockery pools were equipped one by one, and some strange trees and flowers were added. Compared with Zou Li's current house, it is simply a phoenix's nest and a chicken's nest.
A mountain road that can be used for a carriage winds up, and at the end of the carriage there are several tall trees, behind which there is a small flat land, behind which a tall gate tower protrudes, and above the city gate is written several large characters: "Bibo Cave".
Underneath these large characters are crescent-shaped doors, with small attics on each side of the door. Across the gate is a pond about five acres in size, and a stone bridge is in the air.
As the saying goes: the wind and water rise and the blue waves ripple, the rainbow lies in the clouds and surrounds the fairy air; the willows and enchanting trees by the pond, and the fairy flowers and birds are solemn.
Behind the stone bridge, a new one suddenly appeared, and a gut about six zhang wide was revealed. On both sides of the road is a garden and on the other side is a small square. A discerning person can see at a glance that it is for practice.
At the end of the road, a five-story wooden building leaped into view. The building is also integrated into the mountain, with a staircase winding from the outside of the building, and at the top of the fifth floor, a small bridge and a stone path lead into the mountain.
Standing on the wooden tower, you can faintly see several pavilions hidden on top of the mountain peak.
The original cave entrance was gone, and a wooden crescent door appeared in its place, which was behind the first floor of the wooden building. The whole cave embodies a kind of nature and harmony, as if it were natural.
