Evergreen Immortal - Chapter 249
c249 Strike first to gain the upper hand
Outside Qinghe City, deep in a deserted ravine, under a vigorous green pine.
“Old Rui.”
“Mr. Yuan.”
Zhuang Renhe looked at Qi Rui and Yuan Gao with a smile, gloating flashed in his eyes.
Qi Rui was killed by Dao Mo and more than a dozen of his men, and he already knew what happened when he finally escaped.
“Zhixian Zhuang, we meet again.”
Qi Rui glanced at Zhuang Renhe lightly.
He didn’t like this naughty magistrate of Yu State at all.
If Zhuang Renhe hadn’t been a member of the Guiming Sect, maybe it would be normal for both parties to meet each other in life and death.
“You two called Mr. Zhuang here today. What are you doing?”
“Mr. Zhuang is busy with official matters and cannot stay for long.”
Yuan Gao snorted coldly: “What?”
“Master Zhuang, has he been an official for so long that he has forgotten his identity?”
He looked sideways at Zhuang Renhe, his meaning was very simple, don’t use your official power on him, I don’t want to do this.
Zhuang Renhe still looked unfazed: “I dare not forget.”
“That’s good.”
Hearing this, Yuan Gao’s complexion became better.
“I called you two here this time because of Jiang Linxian. Our ancestor has asked the Nine Soul Dharma Kings to take action. We must take down Jiang Linxian, and we need some help from you two.”
The Nine Soul Dharma King!
I heard this name.
Zhuang Renhe and Qi Rui were all shocked.
Third-grade Earth Immortal!
They never expected that the Guiming Sect would attach so much importance to Jiang Linxian that they would directly send out powerful men of Dharma King level.
The Dharma King has a very high status in the Gui Ming Sect.
The notorious Blood Shadow Ancestor is the Dharma King.
The Guiming Sect really went to great lengths to capture Jiang Linxian alive.
“Jiang Linxian”
Zhuang Renhe recited this name silently in his mind.
In order to capture Jiang Linxian, the Guiming Sect made such a big move. Of course, they had only one goal, which was to find the banished immortal.
‘Is Jiang Linxian the banished immortal? ’
‘Doesn’t that mean the immortal energy is in Jiang Linxian’s hands?’
His heart moved slightly.
Yuan Gao thought he knew nothing, but in fact he had already seen through everything.
“By the way, there is also an official named Li Rui, who will also be arrested when the time comes.”
Yuan Gao added.
Qi Rui’s face was expressionless. He had known this news for a long time.
Even when he was about to capture Li Rui, he was surrounded by Dao Mo and his men, and finally he ran out alone.
“I will cooperate when the time comes.”
Although I don’t know why the Guiming Sect wants to arrest Jiang Linxian, since the matter has already been approved by the Queen Mother, he will certainly cooperate fully.
“Thank you, brother Rui.”
Yuan Gao cupped his hands with satisfaction and looked at Zhuang Renhe again.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Yuan.”
Zhuang Renhe echoed with his mouth, but his mind became more active.
‘Li Rui.’
He definitely couldn’t beat Jiang Linxian, but if he couldn’t beat Jiang Linxian, he couldn’t afford to offend a little sixth-grade officer?
Knowing the inside story, he directly saw the deeper plans of the Guiming Sect through the surface.
Why bother to catch Jiang Linxian?
Obviously.
The Anning Guard official named Li Rui also has a problem. Maybe he can get immortal energy from Li Rui.
He is not interested in banishing immortals at all.
Immortal energy, what he wants is immortal energy.
‘Strike first to gain the upper hand! ’
Li Zhai.
In front of the stables.
“Look at this fair complexion and these calves, they are so tight, tsk tsk.”
Li Rui, Wang Zhao and Yang Yong gathered around the horse pen and commented on it.
Whoops!
The red dragon horse on the side made a reluctant voice, angrily expressing his dissatisfaction with being left out.
“What about me?”
“And me!”
Li Rui turned a deaf ear to this, and Wang Zhao looked at Dahong guiltily: “Dahong, I’m sorry, I want to sleep with Xiao Huang today.”
I saw.
In the stable, next to the red dragon horse Dahong, there is a knee-high, smooth-haired, and somewhat immature tiger cub.
“Master, if you say that I can sleep with you in your arms every day, can you do it?”
Wang Zhao’s eyes shone.
Judging from his posture, it didn’t look like he was just talking.
It’s really sleep.
After hearing Wang Zhao’s words, Chilong Ma Dahong looked at Wang Zhao with resentment like a little daughter-in-law who was alone in an empty room.
Wang Zhao coughed dryly: “Don’t worry, Dahong, we can sleep together in a few days.”
Why does this sound more and more wrong?
Li Rui touched his chin: “Probably.”
Wang Zhao can understand the words of the red dragon horse, which is the result of getting along day and night, and the connection between the immortal and mysterious energy. There is no reason that it only works for horses, but not others.
“Humans, hateful”
The young tiger bared his teeth and looked fiercely at the group of hateful humans in front of him.
Originally, it was playing happily in the mountains and forests, but then it was caught and put into an iron cage and sent here.
Although it is not very intelligent, it has also heard from the big black bear in the forest that these humans are monsters that eat monsters, and there will definitely be no good consequences if it falls into the hands of these humans.
Bullying a tiger is too much!
hatred!
Little did I know.
All its words were heard by Li Rui.
Li Rui’s expression became strange.
The ferocious nature of this little tiger has not yet emerged. Fortunately, the person who captured the demon has given it a special medicine. I am afraid that it will have no fighting power within a month, otherwise it may rush up and bite people at any time.
It seems that if my disciple wants to sleep with Zhihu, he can’t do it in a day or two.
This young tiger is a demon beast, scientifically known as the three-eyed white tiger, named after the golden pattern on its forehead. It is a ferocious demon beast.
Dao Mo sent it from the Wu Kingdom specifically, so that Li Rui could just treat it as a pet.
This act of sending a demon beast is a common etiquette among the high-level officials of the Wu Kingdom.
That is, Li Rui helped Dao Mo a lot this time, so he was so generous.
Li Rui didn’t have a hobby of playing with tigers.
So he simply gave the young tiger to his disciple.
Wang Zhao wanted to be a great horse master, but if he broadened his mind, he would find that there are actually more than just horses that can be ridden in the world.
Everything can be ridden!
Thinking of this, the horse master is amazing.
Li Rui decided to broaden the knowledge of his apprentice.
“Xiao Zhao, I have always been optimistic about you, come on.”
He patted Wang Zhao on the shoulder.
Wang Zhao nodded firmly: “Master, I won’t let you down.”
He now knows more and more about the art of raising demons in the Wu Kingdom.
He planned to develop Wang Zhao in the direction of raising monsters, and use the monster power to feed himself, so that he could make up for some of his poor bones.
Everyone is a genius, but they just need to find the right direction.
There is no need to focus on internal and external skills.
Li Rui looked at the tiger who kept cursing in the stable, and decided not to let the tiger know that he could communicate with it. The West Heaven Gate was condensed by him, so of course he could control the switch at will.
Yang Yong was curious:
“Old Li, can Xiao Zhao really tame monsters?”
“This is an incredible skill.”
In the past, these were stories that could only be heard from storytellers, and they were all heard as legends.
“It should be no problem.”
Li Rui pondered.
The three of them chatted around the tiger for a long time.
Li Rui and Yang Yong returned to the front yard first, leaving Wang Zhao alone to continue to cultivate their relationship.
“Old Yang, how is the effect of taking the pill?”
Looking at Yang Yong’s dark red face, he knew that the effect must be good.
Yang Yong felt a little distressed: “Old Li, don’t waste money on my old bones in the future. I’m dead, so I’ll die. When the time comes, please give me a thicker coffin for our brotherhood.”
“Get lost.”
Li Rui rolled his eyes: “You have to live a few more years for me.”
“Tell me a number, thirty years, no less, I’m still waiting for you to ask for a reward.”
Yesterday.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
The elixir he asked someone to buy from the capital was finally delivered, and Yang Yong took it on the same day.
At first, Yang Yong was still hesitant and evasive.
It was Li Rui who pinched his chin and stuffed it in, which made Yang Yong, the old man, feel painful for a long time.
He understood.
People like them who are used to being poor will spend money recklessly when they get rich when they are young, but they are reluctant to spend when they are old.
Yang Yong is probably in that state.
To put it simply, he is afraid of being poor.
He is afraid that one day he will be beaten back to his original state.
After watching the tiger, Li Rui went out to the Tiandi League.
It was time for the monthly meeting again.
A moment later.
He came to the gate of the Tiandi League.
Although many people have proposed to expand the Tiandi League, they were all rejected by Li Rui.
Just look at those big families.
The richer the family, the more low-key they are.
What is low-key luxury?
So the Tiandi League has not changed much.
“League leader!”
The Tiandi League disciples guarding the gate saluted and were respectful when they saw Li Rui.
This respect was not pretended, but came from the heart.
Nothing else.
Since Li Rui became the leader, the monthly salary of all the disciples of the Tiandi League has doubled, which is a real benefit.
Who would not like a leader who has a salary increase?
Li Rui nodded casually and strode into the Juyi Hall.
At this time.
The hall was already full of people.
The leader and deputy leader were all gathered in the hall.
Ning Zhongtian, Huang Chui and Fei Lao San all nodded slightly when they saw Li Rui appear.
Li Rui smiled and sat on the main seat:
“I haven’t seen you brothers for a long time. I’m in a hurry to contact you today. Let Huang, the leader, talk about the matter.”
He is now the real leader.
Even higher than Ning Zhongtian’s ranking, of course, it is impossible for him to always be the leader. Just say a few words at the critical moment.
He doesn’t have the bad habit of talking to one person for an hour.
Huang Chui coughed lightly: “Everyone, there are two things today.”
“First, our deputy leader Ge has broken through for a long time, and now he has gathered his energy. It’s not appropriate for him to continue to be the deputy leader. I propose that Brother Ge become the fifth leader. What do you think?”
It’s about promotion.
Everyone in the hall naturally has different expressions.
Especially the deputy leaders.
When everyone was silent, Li Rui raised his hand first: “I agree.”
Then, Ning Zhongtian also laughed: “I have no objection either.”
Seeing that the two leaders of the Tiandi League had no objection, the others naturally did not dare to have any objection, and raised their hands together, fearing that they would be too slow.
Since the matter was irreversible, it left a bad impression in the minds of the two leaders.
Huang Chui saw this: “In this case, then Brother Ge will be our fifth leader in the future.”
“Congratulations, Brother Ge.”
Ge Hong stood up and clasped his fists: “From now on, we are all brothers, eating meat and drinking together!”
Li Rui’s mouth slightly raised.
Ge Hong became the fifth leader, and of course he was behind the scenes.
The leader of the Tiandi League is similar to a partner.
Except for him, the other three are original shares, but as the Tiandi League continues to develop, it will always absorb fresh blood.
Ge Hong is an old man.
He has a good relationship with him, and he wants to use Ge Hong to open up the situation.
In the future, more talents will be recruited.
“The second thing is that our league will open a branch in Anning Prefecture. This is a big deal. Leader Fei will personally preside over the branch. You all need to support it.”
Hearing this.
The eyes of several deputy leaders present were bright.
Although Qinghe now has a tendency to suppress Anning Prefecture, Anning Prefecture is still a prefecture after all.
Setting up a branch in the prefecture naturally cannot be low.
There will definitely be enough oil and water.
The key is that there will be many more deputy helmsmen, hall masters, and deacons.
This is a great opportunity to place their own people and cultivate power, which is related to the vital interests of these deputy leaders.
Ning Zhongtian said calmly: “Let me be frank. I don’t care how you divide or grab, but if anyone dares to break the rules of the alliance, I will be the first to kill him.”
Hearing Ning Zhongtian’s words.
Several people’s expressions froze.
Now in the Tiandi Alliance, Huang Chui and Fei Laosan, the two leaders, have become big thugs, Li Rui is in charge of the overall situation, and Ning Zhongtian is responsible for playing the villain and taking charge of the punishment.
Several old people in the alliance have been beaten to death by Ning Zhongtian according to the rules.
Ning Zhongtian is the founder and the two strongest people in the alliance. He is the most suitable person to do this.
This is also the result of his discussion with Li Rui.
Otherwise, if Li Rui is allowed to do it, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the old people in the alliance.
If people’s hearts are in chaos, it is useless to make more money.
After finishing the story, Li Rui spoke: “Brothers, I have agreed with Lord Dao of Wuguo that as long as we get the approval of the Ministry of Households, we can do the business of monsters, and we will make a lot of money.”
Become bigger and stronger!
Li Rui’s words can be regarded as a shot of adrenaline.
The business of monsters is also a big business.
Who would have trouble with money?
What Li Rui meant by this is very simple, that is, don’t just stare at the small money in front of you, and the future will be brighter.
He knows too much about internal fighting.
When a force has stagnated, it will fight internally. Only by expanding can everyone’s mind be diverted.
Li Rui’s move is not for the unity of the Tiandi League.
But he really needs to make money.
After opening up the Qi Sea, once he enters the Guanhai Realm, the entire Tiandi League may not be able to support him. Of course, he must find a way to make more money in a safe situation.
Otherwise, how to buy elixirs?
How to buy spiritual weapons?
As the saying goes, wealth, friends, law, and land, wealth comes first.
This day.
Li Rui returned home and had dinner with Wang Zhao and Yang Yong.
He had just completed a round of walking.
He was about to get into bed and dream about the immortal world.
There was a knock on the door.
The door was thin to begin with, and the person outside was trying hard, making a creaking sound and shaking it.
It was almost about to collapse.
Li Rui put on his clothes and pushed open the door.
He saw Liu Tiezhu standing at the door with an excited look on his face:
“Master, the immortal weapon is going to be completed!”
