Evergreen Immortal - Chapter 256
Anning Guard has become much deserted, and the soldiers who used to walk around in small groups and talk are gone.
“Boss Li, you are really ill at the wrong time.”
Tan Hu wandered around the guardhouse listlessly.
“A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise.”
“What horse?”
“Pretend I didn’t say it.”
Li Rui didn’t expect that even with his low cultural level, he would still have the opportunity to crush others.
Tan Hu was very depressed.
Cao Wei and Lei Yong led more than 1,500 people out of Anning Guard. They estimated that they would be able to reach the checkpoint tomorrow at most, and then gallop on the battlefield.
How refreshing that is.
Originally, he had already gone into battle to kill the enemy with all his strength, but as a result, there were only three guards participating in the battle, and Li Rui was not among them. Naturally, he had no chance to go to the battlefield.
Tan Hu does not blame Li Rui.
He firmly believed that if Li Rui hadn’t accidentally gone crazy, he would definitely be on the list of those three people.
I don’t see that Li Rui’s beating of that kid Qi Ze was like beating a cub.
Li Rui chuckled.
Of course he wouldn’t tell Tan Hu.
It was his deliberate decision not to go to the battlefield of Wu Kingdom.
It would be nice to be safe and sound.
“Hu Zi, peace is blessing.”
Tan Hu curled his lips and said: “Brother Li, you can’t think like that. When a man is seventy, it is still a good time to go into battle to kill the enemy.”
Li Rui added:
“I’m eighty.”
“.”
Tan Hu felt that he still underestimated Li Rui, regardless of his age or strength.
Li Rui: “By the way, General Cao and the others have gone to the Wu Kingdom. Those rebels in the Wu Kingdom may be waiting for an opportunity to retaliate. Bring more people to keep an eye on the trade routes. I have already told Mr. Lu about the manpower. Just go and ask for people.”
“Okay.”
Tan Hu’s eyes suddenly lit up.
If you can’t go to the battlefield, killing a few thieves in the Yu Kingdom is enough to satisfy your cravings.
Watching Tan Hu run away happily.
Li Rui smiled and shook his head: “A young man full of energy.”
Looking far south.
He seemed to have seen the battlefield where the bones were buried in the sand.
This time, not only Anning Guard, but also Annan Town and Jianchuan Town were also involved.
How could a major event that Governor Yuan was personally in charge of be minor?
To put it bluntly, people with less than 20,000 people are just a small group, and they are not worthy of Governor Yuan’s attention.
Cao Wei and Lei Yong are just one part of the army.
This time, Yu State assisted Wu State in quelling the chaos, and the news was greater than he expected.
The people on the top of the Yu Kingdom’s tower seemed to want to take the opportunity to escalate the matter. I’m afraid the Wu Kingdom’s court had not thought of the current scene.
This is a conspiracy.
His Majesty, the emperor of the Yu Kingdom, may have wanted to intervene in the affairs of the Wu Kingdom for a long time.
Moreover, they had already tried it before, but they had to withdraw due to the enthronement of the new emperor of Wu Kingdom.
Now I have another chance to seize it.
Of course you have to take a big bite.
The Wu Kingdom’s court knew, but what could they do?
The war in southern Xinjiang was urgent, and they really needed the Yu Kingdom to send troops. Although the people who died were all the people of the Wu Kingdom, and the losses were all the property of the Wu Kingdom, at least they were not from their own side.
No price can be paid before final victory is achieved.
This situation is very common.
When Emperor Taizu was competing for power in the world, Wu Kingdom actually did similar things.
He may appear friendly on the surface, but he may be scolding underneath.
As the saying goes, interests are the best friends.
‘Everything in the world is for profit’.
“Damn, trash, trash!”
Witch country.
In Barbarian Bone City, the city lord’s mansion was filled with angry and angry curses.
Yuan Gao was extremely angry.
“Zhuang Renhe, when I go back, I will kill your whole family!”
The plan was going well.
The Blood Shadow Ancestor has already asked the Nine Soul Dharma King to take action. He only needs to find a way to lure Jiang Linxian out of the city, and then capture him alive to complete the task assigned by the Immortal Lord.
Good now.
Zhuang Renhe is dead.
If you die, you will die. The key is that the crime of killing him has been pinned on the Southern Xinjiang Qi family. Now the Southern Xinjiang Qi family is busy with the war and has no time to take care of the Immortal Lord’s mission.
How could he not be angry?
Yuan Gao finally suppressed the anger in his heart and gradually calmed down.
Of course he knew that the person who killed Zhuang Renhe was not from the Qi family.
On the surface, Zhuang Renhe is the magistrate of the Yu State, but his true identity is a spy of the Guiming Sect. Now that the Guiming Sect is cooperating with the Qi family in Southern Xinjiang, the Qi family in Southern Xinjiang has no reason to take action against Zhuang Renhe.
Yuan Gao’s eyelids trembled:
“Then who will kill Zhuang Renhe?”
Zhuang Renhe is not only the magistrate of the county, but also a master of the fifth-grade sea-viewing realm.
There are not many people in Qinghe who can kill Zhuang Renhe, or rather, they can be counted on one’s fingers.
Just when Yuan Gao was thinking.
A woman’s voice sounded: “Mr. Yuan, why are you so angry? We still have a chance.”
Yuan Gao followed the voice and saw a fair-skinned woman wearing a fiery red dress approaching.
There was an old man beside him, it was Qi Rui.
“Mrs. Qi, how do you say this?”
Yuan Gao looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with some fear.
Mrs. Lingluo’s surname is not Ling, but Qi.
He is the city lord of Mangu City.
Ten years ago, Mrs. Lingluo was still the wife of the city lord. Later, the city lord died and she became the new city lord.
I heard that she killed the previous city lord.
The news may be false, but it is true that Mrs. Lingluo is vicious and cruel.
He has seen this during his stay in Barbarian Bone City.
Madam Ling Luo: “He is just a military officer of a garrison. When the time comes, Mr. Yuan just needs to invite the Dharma King. I have my own way to lure him out. It is not easy to catch the Dharma King.”
The laughter was so turbulent.
Yuan Gao snorted in his heart:
‘Slutty fox. ‘
Madam Ling Luo obviously did not intend to tell him the specific method first.
In the past few days, he had fought with Madam Ling Luo. Whenever they met, Madam Ling Luo would mention the Dharma King of Nine Souls.
How could he not know what Madam Ling Luo was thinking.
Isn’t it just hoping that the Dharma King of Nine Souls would come and help her guard the Mangu City.
The Qi family in southern Xinjiang has masters.
But those masters are all in the big city. If there is a powerful earth immortal in the Mangu City, it will definitely be much more stable.
The abacus beads are about to fall on his face.
“The Dharma King has gone south and will come to Wugu City soon. I hope Madam will not break her promise when the time comes.”
Yuan Gao said lightly.
If you want to capture Jiang Linxian alive, it is very difficult to rely on the Ghost Sect alone. You must have the help of the Southern Xinjiang Qi family.
“Of course.”
Madam Ling Luo’s fiery red lips slightly raised.
“In this case, I will take my leave first.”
After saying that.
Yuan Gao was not interested in staying for long, so he turned around and walked out of the City Lord’s Mansion.
Watching Yuan Gao leave.
Qi Rui then slowly spoke: “City Lord, are you really sure?”
It is not an easy task to capture Jiang Linxian alive, not to mention that the army of Yu State is only a hundred miles away from Mangu City.
A hundred miles is just a day’s work for the army of Yu State.
And Jiang Linxian is still thousands of miles away in Qinghe. He really can’t think of how to lure Jiang Linxian here.
Qi Rui looked at his young Qi family.
Madam Ling Luo is his granddaughter in terms of seniority.
But Qi Rui is willing to be a deputy in Mangu City.
Why?
Isn’t it that Madam Ling Luo is born with a very clever mind, or as the saying goes, this child has been smart since she was young.
And she has a good foundation in martial arts, she is cruel to others and even crueler to herself.
At the age of 28, she married the old city lord of Man Gu City, who was already 300 years old at that time. At that time, she became a joke of the Qi family. Unexpectedly, she became the city lord without making any noise.
Since then, no one dared to laugh at Madam Ling Luo.
‘It’s really a ghost, why can’t the men of the Qi family be helped? ‘
A correct version in 16191 book1 forum!
The smile on Madam Ling Luo’s face was completely restrained, and the whole person was like an iceberg: “Yu country, do you really think that the Qi family is so easy to bully? You will definitely pay the price!”
“Uncle Rui, don’t worry.”
“Brother, I beheaded thirty people today. Everything went well. I hope you will return victorious soon.”
Li Rui looked at the short note in his hand.
This was sent by Ning Zhongtian with the military report.
Since going to Wu country, Ning Zhongtian would send a note back every once in a while.
According to the letter, he has made many achievements on the battlefield.
He has accumulated no less than a dozen great achievements.
This is a big number for the garrison.
It is said that the battlefield is the place where soldiers can make achievements and soar to the sky. Ning Zhongtian can probably earn dozens of great achievements just by killing the enemy.
Such a number of great achievements is really amazing.
Of course.
Li Rui did not think that things were as easy as Ning Zhongtian’s letter said. If it was so simple, then Annan Town and the court would definitely raise the requirements for military achievements.
The things of the court are not blown by the wind. If you want to earn them, especially on the battlefield, you must exchange them with your life.
The army is promoted quickly, and you can often see generals in their twenties.
Little do they know.
This is all piled up with lives. Behind a young general are countless dead bones.
And.
How do you know who is standing behind the young general?
Young man, don’t be misled by appearances and get carried away by passion.
Li Rui handed the letter to Wang Zhao: “Xiao Zhao, send the letter to Tiandi League, and let your senior brother give it to Alliance Leader Huang.”
“Yes, Master.”
Wang Zhao nodded.
Ning Zhongtian is not only his brother, but also has a deeper friendship with Huang Chui and Fei Lao San. There is no reason for him to know it but not tell them.
Just to report his safety.
After getting along with them, Li Rui can also feel it.
Huang Chui and Fei Lao San have already regarded him as the leader of the alliance, and Ning Zhongtian as a brother.
Li Rui has no self-pity for this. It is good to maintain superficial respect. There is no need to treat them as brothers, and there is no reason.
The timing is not right, the occasion is not right, and it is impossible in this life.
I have seen brothers who share hardships, but who has seen someone who regards his superior as a brother?
Although the three are all leaders of the alliance, Li Rui is essentially their superior.
Li Rui believes that he does not have the ability to be loved by everyone.
Military reports are constantly sent from the front.
All are good news.
Today, they killed several people, and tomorrow, they captured several cities. They were so powerful that they could break through the enemy lines.
These were posted on the notice board of the garrison.
The people who stayed in the garrison were jealous.
There was no doubt that if they could win beautifully, they would not only have military merits on the battlefield, but also the emperor would be happy and reward them after they returned victorious.
Free benefits.
Tan Hu was even more envious when he saw it.
Recently, he took people out for patrols every day, but he didn’t encounter any enemies.
He was so angry that he led people into the mountains and killed several groups of horse thieves.
“Lord Li, Elder Jiang invites you to his mansion for a talk.”
A Huaqing Sect disciple knocked on the door.
At first, there were many Huaqing Sect disciples in Anning Guard. Now, except for those who were on duty, the rest could only be seen in Jiang Linxian’s house.
“Okay.”
Li Rui nodded.
Immediately, he followed the Huaqing Sect disciple to Jiang Linxian’s military residence.
When he walked into the lobby.
He saw Jiang Linxian sitting on the armchair, and Jiang Yan stood obediently on the side.
“Jiang head.”
Li Rui bowed.
Jiang Linxian smiled and waved his hand: “Just to chat with Brother Li casually, there is no distinction between superiors and subordinates, sit down quickly, Yan’er, serve tea to Brother Li.”
As soon as Li Rui sat down, a fragrant breeze blew.
He was flattered.
Jiang Yan made tea for him, and he really had never enjoyed such treatment.
Jiang Linxian: “Brother Li, I went to visit Senior Tie a few days ago, and he often mentioned you.”
Li Rui’s heart moved slightly.
Jiang Linxian and Tie Kuang have a good relationship, and he knows this.
Li Rui took a sip of tea.
The taste was average. Jiang Linxian never paid much attention to the way of enjoying life. He was simply a breath of fresh air among the officials in Qinghe.
“I just helped Senior Tie a little. Senior Tie was kind and cared about me.”
Jiang Linxian’s mouth slightly raised: “Forging immortal soldiers, this contribution is really not small.”
Li Rui put down the teacup and paused.
‘This tea is really hot. ‘
He guessed that Jiang Linxian asked him to come today, called him brother, and asked her precious daughter to make tea. It must not be as simple as drinking tea.
“It’s all because of Senior Tie’s superb craftsmanship. I’m just doing my best.”
Li Rui didn’t find it strange that Jiang Linxian knew about the immortal soldiers.
The matter of the immortal soldiers would spread sooner or later.
It’s not surprising that Jiang Linxian knew about it in advance.
But Jiang Linxian’s next words were shocking.
“Brother Li, we are all family, so let’s not talk about it. Zhuang Renhe, you killed him, didn’t you?”
Li Rui was slightly shocked, but his expression did not change at all: “Jiang, I don’t have that ability.”
Jiang Linxian laughed, and did not continue to ask, and said to Jiang Yan:
“Yan’er, I have a pot of wine hidden in my room, go and get it for me.”
“Oh.”
Jiang Yan responded softly, and then went out.
Only Jiang Linxian and Li Rui were left in the lobby.
Jiang Linxian said to herself: “I have seen the body of Zhuang Renhe, it was killed by the immortal soldiers.”
Li Rui raised his eyebrows.
“Brother Li, don’t worry, I am probably the only one in the world who can see this, and I have erased all the traces for you, no one will find you.”
Li Rui narrowed his eyes and slowly said:
“Jiang, thank you.”
Jiang Linxian smiled slightly: “It’s a piece of cake, and I have wanted to kill that Zhuang for a long time.”
The two smiled at each other.
Then they chatted for a full hour.
Jiang Linxian took a sip of tea and sighed:
“Brother Li, I was enlightened at the age of three, practiced sword at the age of five, and never had an opponent at the same level. I often feel confused and lonely.”
Li Rui blinked:
“Why does Jiang Touer feel this way?”
Jiang Linxian narrowed his eyes:
“I can do whatever I want to do, and I can kill anyone I want to kill in the end. Tianjiao can only see my back.”
“So sometimes I can’t help but ask.”
“Am I too talented?”
Li Rui: “.”
