Chapter Eighty-six Arrival at Mo Li Yuan

  How big is the Divine Turtle Island, Zhao Ji didn't know, but based on what he has come into contact with so far, it can be inferred that the area of the Divine Turtle Island must not be small.

  The place where the two forces negotiated a truce this time - Moliao Yuan, is dozens of miles in diameter, located on the outermost periphery of the Four Sides City, and can be regarded as a valley among mountains, a plain surrounded by mountains.

  This location is a bit remote, the Wind Chaser's negotiation place was put here, which clearly expressed deep distrust and fear of the five major families. Is it using the heart of a small person to measure the abdomen of a gentleman? It's not easy to say for now.

  The whole army set out early in the morning and marched slowly, taking a whole day to arrive at Molingyuan by sunset.

  The grass on the riverbank withers and flourishes every year, the wildfire cannot burn it all, and the spring breeze blows it to life again.

  Although it is a small area of wilderness, the wild grass on Molixuan Plain grows luxuriantly, as high as several inches, and can submerge people's knees when walking in it.

  Now, it's already the deep autumn month, soon to be winter, in Zhao Ji's memory, the grass and trees should have withered, but in Mo Li Yuan, those wild grasses are still green and lush.

  Riding on horseback, he entered the vast expanse of Moliao Yuan. Zhao Ji gazed out at the scenery, his line of sight stretching far and wide, with clumps of grass of varying heights swaying gently in the breeze, a vast expanse of emerald green filling his vision.

  Looking up, the sky is high and cloudless, with a vast expanse of blue that seems to be dotted with small islands, as if the azure sea had been washed clean.

  The blue sky and green grass reflected each other, both with such pure colors. After Zhao Ji's careful consideration, his heart suddenly became particularly broad-minded, with a strange feeling of enlightenment rising to the surface.

  "The environment here is really great, with high skies and light clouds, lush green grass, and dense forests. Compared to Earth, it's much stronger."

  Although he had been here for some days and gradually adapted to the original environment, when he saw such a vast grassland for the first time, Zhao Ji still felt a sense of emotion that he couldn't control.

  A stretch of grassland dozens of miles in circumference, strictly speaking, is not a real grassland, but can also be said to be a larger green space. Due to the limitations of human vision, Zhao Ji would think that this place is very spacious and seems endless, giving him a sense of broad-mindedness and openness.

  "Brother, we've arrived. However, there's no movement from the Wind Chaser thieves yet. Let's set up camp first and wait for their arrival."

  Lu Zhongshan said to Zhao Yi with a casual tone.

  Before arriving at Mo Li Yuan, Luo Zhong Shan had already sent out scouts to investigate whether anyone from the Wind Chasers was coming. Just now, after the main force arrived, he received a report from the scouts and knew that not even a shadow of the Wind Chasers had appeared.

  Although it was a truce between the two major forces, it was comparable to going to war, but the five major families would not compromise on their living standards in any way.

  Large and exquisite tents, hundreds or thousands of them, were prepared. Once Luo Zhongshan announced the setting up of camp, everyone began to take action and set up their tents.

  These thousands of tents, are only for the Luo family's side, the other four families have also prepared their own daily necessities, even the camp they set up is distinct and separate.

  The five major families, when fighting against external enemies, are indeed united externally, but internally they are not entirely harmonious and have some discord.

  Among the five families, the Gu and Guan families are relatively close, while the Lu and Lü families have a good relationship. Only the Luo family is isolated and independent.

  In a place slightly inside Moliyuan, the Luo family marked out a piece of land and set up their camp. Thousands of people moved in unison, making a grand spectacle.

  The Luo family was originally a business family, with great wealth and a rough atmosphere. The sleeves were truly not small, except for the ordinary house slaves and guards who shared one account tent, everyone else had one person per tent.

  Almost a thousand tents, all of which are exactly the same style, whether for one person or two people to use together, with a uniform color and style.

  Setting up tents is something that the master of the house doesn't need to lift a finger for, as there are servants to take care of it. As a guest, Zhao Ji can also enjoy leisure time.

  After all the tents were set up, Luo Zhongshan ordered his men to build two extremely luxurious giant tents. Zhao Ji thought they were for Luo Zhongshan and Luo Qiushui's residence, but instead, he continued to set up some mechanisms inside.

  I went in to take a look, the mechanisms set up inside are really sharp and deadly. Not to mention ordinary martial artists, even top-notch ones who enter without being on guard might get hurt.

  "Luoshibo, this is indeed a good plan of yours, digging such a treacherous trap. If the enemy dares to come, they will surely not return."

  Having witnessed the entire process, Zhao Yiruo still couldn't figure out Luo Zhongshan's purpose; that would be stupid to the extreme.

  "This is just in case, to guard against petty people but not gentlemen."

  With a faint smile, Luo Zhongshan said.

  Everything was gathered, the fire was lit and cooked, when the fragrance of the dishes wafted over the vast expanse of Molixuan, the sun had just set below the horizon, leaving only a faint red glow on the edge of the sky.

  When the meal was finished, Gu Wanda, Guan Feng, Lu Yu and Lü Yuan all came, saying they wanted to invite Luo Zhongshan and Luo Qiushui to their place for dinner. In the end, however, it was the four of them who ended up staying here to eat.

  Lu Zhongshan, Lu Qiushui, Zhao Ji and the four great young masters sat at the same table for a meal. Before the formal toast, Lu Zhongshan raised his cup of wine, smiled at the four great young masters and said: "Gu Xian nephew, Guan Xian nephew, Lu Xian nephew, Lü Xian nephew, this time it was my Lu family's matter, you four families helped with all your might. Lu Zhongshan is grateful to the extreme, I won't say any more superfluous words of gratitude. Let us drink up this cup, everything will be understood without saying a word."

  "Luoshibo, you're being too polite. The four families of the Five Clans in Fang City have always been closely related, united against outsiders. When one family is in trouble, the other four must lend a helping hand."

  I dare not be the toastmaster of Luo Zhongshan, Gu Wan Dao hurriedly stood up, raised his wine glass to respond, and said with a stern expression: "Besides, the Wind Chaser Thief is not something to be trifled with. Within the sphere of influence of our five major families, they stir up trouble. In the past, they didn't provoke us, so we could let them off lightly. Now, they actually dare to make a move on Tai Sui's head, how can we still tolerate them?"

  "Yes, Brother Gu is right. The Luo family's affairs are our four families' business. The Wind Chasers dared to provoke the Luo family and almost hurt Sister Luo Shi. We can't let them off again."

  Guan Feng strongly agreed with Gu Wan Dao's words, indignantly saying.

  "That's within the territory of Four Square City, where our five families are the true overlords. Anyone who dares to provoke us must be strongly suppressed. Moreover, for someone as delicate as Luo Mei, the Wind Chasers would not hesitate to take action. If you ask me, why bother negotiating with them? Let's just annihilate them."

  Lu Yu said very domineeringly.

  "My three elder brothers are right, I totally agree."

  Lü Yuan echoed in agreement.
