Cao Hai opened the door carefully and saw Peng Longteng lying on the bed, letting two doctors bandage the wound on his neck.
"Ouch~!" Cao Hai walked in, came to Peng Longteng's side and stamped his feet vigorously.
"Are you crazy? You actually killed thousands of people!"
Peng Longteng, who closed his eyes to meditate, spoke, "If we don't pay them for the war, who will fight for them? If we don't give them rewards, who will win the war for them?"
"It's harder to ask them for money than to kill them. OK, since they are in trouble, I will ask for the reward myself!"
"After fighting on the battlefield for so long, I can't treat my soldiers badly!"
"You, you, you -" Cao Hai was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"It's just a small town with a few thousand people. See how anxious you are. If I don't find a city, I'm already worthy of those big turbans."
"That's easy to say! Those are all the people of Shu!" Cao Hai was so angry that he wiped his tears and wandered back and forth in the room.
"Right now, the court is in turmoil because of natural disasters, and you still want to cause trouble with them! You have offended them all!"
Pushing away the doctor who was suturing his neck, Peng Longteng sat up directly.
"What does a natural disaster have to do with me? Even if the sky falls, the soldiers will still have to pay! Besides, what are you afraid of? This is not the first time there has been a natural disaster."
"Auntie, you can just get paid. Why are you killing people?"
The complaining Cao Hai raised his orchid fingers and wiped the blood on Peng Longteng's armor with a handkerchief.
"I have just come off the battlefield. So many people have died, and as a result, there is still no reward or pay. The men are suffocating in their hearts. If they don't release it, they will be in the camp."
Cao Hai's voice became much softer. "No matter what you say, paper cannot cover the fire. What you did is known to the court..."
"If you know it, you know it. Do you think those people don't know it?"
"They robbed the army of thieves of military pay. Didn't you know how I would react?"
"It won't cause a big fuss from above. The big headscarves will help cover it up. Otherwise, if it gets too big, no one's face will look good."
"It's great now. They don't have to pay more. We also have wages and no one loses."
"Besides, I'm not fooling around. I have a reputation for being a master. Didn't you see that I have already exploded a few Si Qi masterpieces?"
Speaking of this, Peng Longteng thought of something, his face immediately darkened, and he reached out to touch his left cheek.
A large part of the blue tattoo on that face has been burned, and the two words "crooked loyalty" look particularly terrifying.
Especially his left eye, Peng Longteng's delicate phoenix eye has been covered with a layer of white clouds, and it is obvious that he is blind.
"What a good boy, you can escape from my hands and hurt me, you have the guts!"
"Jianjun, go and talk to the people from Jiantiansi. When you find him, tell me his location. I must kill him."
"Hey, General, forget it. Since that boy is a Nestorian, he is no longer under your control. Let's return to camp."
"No! I, Peng Longteng, don't have an overnight feud! Anyone who offends me will die!"
"There is no reason for that. Oh, you are leading troops all over Houshu. Do you really think you are His Majesty?"
"The general was not satisfied with his orders outside. The Zhuoshan bandits raised their flags to rebel against the common people. I went to attack them."
Cao Hai's face was full of helplessness. "How could he rebel? Didn't they just be subdued by you?"
"I said he rebelled, then he rebelled!"
Peng Longteng's hand, which was hugged by the iron armor, smashed hard, making a hole in the solid wooden bed.
—————————————
The mace with sharp teeth smashed down hard, smashing the head of a two-meter-long snake to pieces.
Gao Zhijian reached out to pick it up, smiled innocently, threw it over his shoulder, and headed back home.
This is a stone forest. Although there are stones everywhere, at least it is no longer as barren as before. The green plants bring some vitality to this place.
Not long after walking, Gao Zhijian saw other people, it was a cave.
"Do...do...do..." He held the big snake high and leaned towards it.
"Do whatever you want, Senior Brother Li is not allowed to light a fire, just eat dry food."
However, Jinshan Zhao didn't think so. He smiled and stretched out his hand to take the snake.
"You can cook without fire, so this thing can be made into snake soup."
After that, he took out a knife and peeled off the snake meat, carefully sliced the fresh snake meat into pieces, and arranged them carefully.
Jin Shanxuan picked up the bamboo chopsticks, picked up two pieces, dipped some chili noodles in them and put them in his mouth.
"Hmm~! It's extremely delicious. Come and have a try."
Others gathered around and started eating one bite at a time.
Gouwa, who was eating happily, stopped his chopsticks and shouted to Li Huowang in the distance: "Brother Li, come and eat snake meat. Putting this raw snake meat in your mouth, let alone chewing fat meat
feeling."
At this time, Li Huowang ignored him and continued to try his new abilities with his head in his hands.
"Swipe~!" When Li Huowang opened his eyes again, he found that his perspective had been turned sideways and hung on the stone wall. Under the stone wall was his head.
"Come closer...come closer...don't panic, take your time..."
As Li Huowang hinted to himself in his heart, his perspective also slowly changed, and his perspective gradually became closer to becoming one with his body.
There is no difference this time. After so many days of training, Li Huowang has been able to match up perfectly.
Looking left and right, Li Huowang's shadow suddenly rushed in front of the squatting Mantou.
The thing that suddenly appeared in front of it startled it, and its head fell directly backward and fell to the ground.
Steamed Bun stood up, his erect ears drooped, and he shook his head and tail at Li Huowang's shadow.
Seeing this scene, Li Huowang thought to himself: "Don't worry about where it came from, this ability is of great use."
"When fighting with others, a sudden attack like this can have a surprising effect."
"But you still have to practice more until you are as proficient as your limbs."
Li Huowang can now make his shadow appear randomly about a foot away from his body.
You can also leave the shadow in place and make your invisible body appear somewhere else within one foot.
If the enemy attacks Li Huowang's shadow, Li Huowang will not suffer any damage, just like when he fought with the female general before.
But this ability cannot be used indiscriminately. Others are not fools. After suffering a loss once, they will definitely be careful when using it again.
"Senior Brother Li, how are you mastering your magical powers?" Bai Lingmiao came over with a bowl of snake meat.
"It's okay." Li Huowang picked up the chopsticks and ate it like noodles.
Raw snake meat is not delicious, but in the eyes of Li Huowang, who is tired of eating dry food, it is still good.
"Senior Brother Li, how long will it take for us to leave Houshu?"
Li Huowang's chopsticks stopped, he took out Jinshan from his arms and found the detailed map of the painting and looked at it again.
"We can't walk on the main road. We can only take the small roads in the future, or even the small roads. But they don't know where our destination is. I have the initiative in this regard."
"We will be able to get here in two days. If we walk uphill for about seven days, we should be able to reach the border pass. We will not go through the pass, but go around it. As long as we get out of Houshu, we will be safe."
"But... we can't last this long. If we save on dry food, we can only last for two days at most."
