Chapter 625: Returning Home and Encountering
Upon hearing that each person would be rewarded with one piece of medicinal field, Yu Fu'er stopped stroking her belly, the middle-aged woman put down the bronze mirror, and the old farmer stood up from the sedan chair with his three knees shaking.

Medicinal fields are the hard currency among the powerful military forces!

Not just any piece of rotten land can be called a medicinal field. It must be a Feng Shui treasure land where natural treasures can grow. Only then will it be a valuable asset recognized by the powerful... a medicinal field.

With a medicinal field, you can produce a steady supply of natural treasures, which will allow you to improve your cultivation.

When one reaches the level of strong martial arts, relying solely on hard training will have limited effect, and one must take powerful medicine as a supplement.

This time, the Golden Immortal Sect was very generous. If the dwarf was still alive, there would be five of them, which would mean five medicinal fields, enough to drain out the century-old heritage of a small or medium-sized sect.

The medicinal fields they promised must be high-quality products that have been cultivated and are not far from the harvest season.

This reward is really tempting. They jointly hold the auction. Could it be that it is just for fun? The purpose is still one word... money, to purchase the natural treasures, medicines, etc. needed for cultivation.

There are also powerful divine weapons, and the materials required are far more expensive and rare than gold and silver, so you can't get them without money.

Daily food, accommodation, and practice all cost money, and they have no sect to support them, so they can only rely on their own hard work.

Killing one person can get you a piece of medicinal field, it’s worth it!

However, the target is Zhu Qinghua, a member of the Beixuan Zhu clan and a descendant of Niu Gong, the pillar of the north.

These few powerful warriors are superior to ordinary warriors. They can kill and beat them at will. They can even provoke aristocratic families like the Xi family and escape unscathed. However, they cannot provoke the real big shots.

Once Bei Xuan Zhu is angered, there is no need for Niu Gong to step in, any lord of the mansion can come forward and beat them to a pulp.

"Too risky!"

The middle-aged woman spoke, her voice as strong as a man's, "I'm just afraid that I can make money but not spend it."

"The Golden Immortal Sect has bad intentions. It's obvious that they want to use us as cannon fodder. It's not certain whether they can fulfill their promise later."

The old farmer's eyes flashed with calculations. He counted with his hands, "Nine deaths, one life, nine deaths!"

The young man with oily hair and powdered face said seriously, "I have considered all your concerns."

"Let's analyze the purpose of the Golden Immortal Dao. Zhu Qinghua is just a woman, and she has no other strengths except her identity as Beixuan Zhu. Why do they want to kill her?"

"It's very simple. If the Golden Immortal Dao wants to overthrow the six states of the North, it must face the huge Beixuan Zhu. The first thing to do is to pry open a gap."

"Zhu Qinghua is the instigator. If something happens to her in the capital city, it will definitely cause a huge uproar."

"The Golden Immortal Sect secretly fanned the flames, causing infighting among various forces, with blood flowing like a river. Who would still pay attention to us?"

The young man said confidently, "I have a way to get it, and I can also clear myself of any involvement."

Under his persuasion, and with the temptation of the medicinal fields, several powerful generals were skeptical and agreed tentatively.

Yu Fu'er was the last to leave. She glanced at the young man and warned him, "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Zhu Qinghua can be killed, but not insulted."

"If you do anything, be prepared to be hunted down to the ends of the earth."

But she understood the young man's temperament. He was lustful and could not get enough of women. Half of the reason he accepted this commission was that he wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Zhu Qinghua.

The young man smiled awkwardly, "How could that be possible? You've been pregnant for four or five months. I heard that people are most likely to be suspicious at this time."

"You don't have to take care of my child."

Yu Fu'er's face turned cold, and she left with a snort.

……

"Master, this is a turbulent time and the city still needs you to stay here." A young martial artist from Zhoujia Village gave sincere advice to Zhou You.

They were riding in a horse-drawn carriage, leaving the city and heading towards Gongliang City. This time they were going to return to Zhoujia Village.

The incident started a few days ago when someone from Zhoujia Village brought news that Taigong was critically ill.

At the age of 80, after enduring all these years, the time has finally come.

Zhou You immediately decided to take Tie Niu and several young people from Zhoujia Village back to the village to see Taigong for the last time.

After all, Taigong helped him a lot in his career, so as a junior, it would be good for him to show his loyalty.

But most people were against it. Gongliang City was close to the front line and might be invaded by wizards at any time. Zhoujia Village was even worse. He was now responsible for the honor, disgrace, life and death of 6,000 disciples of Daqian Martial Arts School and could not easily make mistakes.

Zhoujia Village is located in a remote area and there is a risk of attack.

Even the young people from Zhoujia Village tried to persuade him tactfully, expressing their willingness to return to the village on behalf of Zhou You to show their filial piety. How could they know what Zhou You was thinking?
"Before his death, Grandpa Taigong wanted to pass on the family mission to Zhou Laiwei in person, and Tie Niu also wanted to be there to witness it."

"Once Zhou Laiwei takes the throne, we can accomplish that great task. Zhoujia Village will be relocated to the capital city, away from the Wuren's troops."

Zhou You was thinking and planning at the same time. He had countless fertile fields under his name, which he either purchased at low prices or donated by others. Conservatively estimated, they could accommodate ten Zhoujia villages, making it easy for the main clan members to live a good life.

The relocation plan is imperative. If we continue to stay near Gongliang City, we will be destroyed one day.

It is hard to leave one's hometown these days. The houses, family fields and even ancestral graves are all there. Without an important figure to preside over the relocation, it is difficult to start the relocation.

Zhou You didn't force everyone to leave. He gave opportunities to those who were willing to believe in him and those who were unwilling to stay would be given a chance.

He was not being overly kind-hearted. He always thought that no one should be left behind. It would be enough if he only needed to relocate some of the Zhoujia Village members and leave behind their bloodline branches.

After all, the people of Zhoujia Village have no blood relationship with him, but are descended from his ancestors' servants.

Preserving this branch is also to provide loyal and reliable manpower in the future.

The Yan family also played an important role in the development and growth of the Overlord Martial Arts School in Yanshan. At any time, the help of fellow villagers is indispensable.

The general situation is that when one person becomes rich, he will immediately take care of his fellow villagers and relatives, and the people around him are all from the same origin.

……

Tie Niu explored the way ahead, turned back after half a day, and reported to Zhou You with gestures.

"Yes, there are traces of a convoy passing by ahead. It's quite large, and it's not transporting goods."

"They are heading towards Gongliang City. That's right, who else would go to Zhoujia Village besides us?"

Zhou You thought about it and thought that perhaps some warriors were advancing to the front line and coming into contact with the witches, leading to a small-scale battle.

In the border areas with the witches, similar situations occur every day and killings continue.

Thinking of this, Zhoujia Village is also about to face danger.

"Tie Niu, speed up, we must get to Zhoujia Village before sunset."

At Zhou You's urging, everyone worked hard to drive the animals, and the team's speed of advancement increased suddenly.

His heart suddenly skipped a beat and he looked in a certain direction, only to realize that it was the direction where Tie Niu had just observed the convoy leaving.

The panel did not give any prompt, probably because the triggering conditions were insufficient. Anyway, he had a vague feeling that this group of people had some kind of connection with him, and he would definitely meet them in the future.
