In October, everyone was walking slowly on the uneven mountain path. The mountain path was quiet and the sound of steps was crisp. Looking at these, Shen Zhentu felt a sense of distantness and strangeness, as if he was a different world.
Thinking of myself that day, I led the seventeen horsemen over and was full of energy, but now I was only deeply afraid. I remembered that many brothers could no longer drink and chat and laugh. Shen Zhen couldn't help but burst into tears and wiped them secretly. He suddenly asked: "Why did you speak under the water just now? If it weren't for Brother Pei, you said, I would have died."
"It is the secret of the sound transmission, the deep water is the most fearful. As soon as I send the sound, the fear dispels itself."
"Oh, it turns out that it is. I have heard that the internal school has practiced and has the method of transmitting the voice and entering the secret, but I have never really heard it before, but now I have seen it." Shen Zhenwu was over.
Pei Ziyun smiled. This is not a secret message. This is a skill that can be understood when promoted to the second level of earth immortals. It can speak telepathically within three meters, and can affect the mind to a certain extent.
However, the effect on people with a firm mind is greatly reduced, but it is just in that closed, dark and desperate space.
"Let's leave immediately." Pei Ziyun looked at the sky, then looked at the mountains and the military camp and said. After hearing this, the group of people quickly climbed along the mountains and quickly left.
Qi Yuan View
"boom"
A thunder flashed and the rain poured down. At this time, a knock on the door sounded. A Taoist official came to check, opened the door bolt, swept outside, and closed the door.
"The True Lord has arrived!" said the Taoist official, asking Pei Ziyun to enter.
I used talismans to contact me not long ago, and everything was prepared. This was the imperial court controlled the Taoist temple, and there were Taoist officials stationed. As the Taoist said, seven or eight Taoist monks came out of the Taoist temple, and I bowed together.
"Forget it, get up!" After the salute, Pei Ziyun waved his hand and said.
"Please let Zhenjun and you all change your clothes in the shower, you are all ready." The Taoist said, giving in: "Please please, please, please inside!"
He took everyone to the hall and saw two Taoists busy cooking at the banquet, and there were ten rooms in the wing room, all with lights on. When Pei Ziyun was invited to enter, he saw a big bucket full of hot water.
"True Lord, hot water is ready."
There were also top-quality Taoist robes around. Pei Ziyun smiled and went in. After washing and changing into new clothes, he came out to the hall and saw that the banquet had already been put on.
Pei Ziyun, Shen Zhen, six tourists from the world, and eight of them sat at the banquet. The Taoist served and poured wine to explain: "I don't take good care of the Taoist temple, please forgive me."
"But this is a special ginseng wine made by this temple, which can replenish vitality..."
When Pei Ziyun looked at it, he saw that the ginseng wine poured out was golden and fragrant. There was a grilled pork chop in the middle of the table. The browned crust was covered with braised oil. In addition, there were seven or eight dishes. He smiled and said, "Brother Shen, everyone, this time you have come to help you thousands of miles away. I wish you a cup."
Pei Ziyun poured it all over and drank it in one gulp, and the tourists from all over the world did not refuse and took a cup to drink it.
After three drinks, eight people were a little warm. Pei Ziyun smiled and said, "I have sorted out the number of enemies you killed in this war."
After saying that, he took out a fold from his arms and placed it on the table, and pushed it towards Shen Zhen.
Looking at this note, Shen Zhen's face suddenly felt happy. A gangster was eating meat, but he stretched out his chopsticks and picked up the meat. He was stunned and stared at it with a hot look. This note recorded the battle along the way. Thinking of this, the few people were silent, and some of them were red.
Shen Zhen took it and put the fold in the palm of his hand. He suddenly felt heavy. It was all for the brothers to exchange for their lives. His eyes turned a little red for a moment and he didn't say anything.
"If there were no dead brothers, we would not have stood here today. Let us toast them." Shen Zhen raised the cup in his hand and poured the wine on the ground. All the tourists raised their glasses: "Toast brothers."
After a long time, Shen Zhen wiped the corners of his eyes and said to Pei Ziyun: "Brother Pei, you made you laugh. I can't help it when I think of my brothers."
Shen Zhen's voice was hoarse, and he drank a glass of wine before taking the note and reading it. He described the process in detail, killing fifty-six people and the number of beheadings of the brothers.
"Hu" Shen Zhen breathed a long sigh and handed the note to his brothers, allowing them to circulate each other.
Pei Ziyun said, "I have said it straightforwardly that the imperial court reward is very troublesome. If you don't want it, maybe people think you have a ghost, and if you want it, you may hate it. But overall, it's better to have it open and upright."
"But even if you want it, there is still a choice of the charter."
Pei Ziyun said this and breathed a sigh of depression. He glanced around Shen Zhen and the six jianghu guests. He saw several jianghu guests listening at this time.
"If you want to become an official and transfer to the army, your level is lower. With this military merit, you can recommend a team chief or deputy team chief, but you are a gangster and a little sensitive identity, and you are afraid that the court may not agree."
"It is relatively easier to have a scattered rank without real ranks, between the nine grades and the nine grades."
"It depends on your choice."
"As for the brothers who died in battle, they must be given a pension to comfort their spirits in heaven."
After hearing this, Shen Zhen smiled bitterly and sighed: "The military rules are strict, so I can't be the one. I just need to be a scattered rank, so I can be free and free, and not be burdened by dirty things."
"I'll follow my elder brother, just choose a scattered rank." The remaining three chose a scattered rank. At this time, the two of them hesitated for a moment, raised their heads and said, "True Lord, I want to join the army and gain a future!"
Pei Ziyun smiled: "But, what's wrong with brothers being ambitious?"
After saying that, he put all the items in the pen and called the Taoist official over: "The memorandum will be sent according to the regular channels, and the news can be directly transmitted to the capital."
The Taoist official took it and responded to the order: "Yes, the True Lord."
Temporary Lu Wang Mansion
This was originally a prefect's office, and the regulations were OK. Although King Lu was not an extravagant person, he also carried out some renovations and expansions. He built the palace to meet the ministers. In addition, the armored soldiers standing on the sword like nails looked like armor and majestic.
Eunuch Liao, who was covered in embarrassment and sweat, rushed to the front of the hall and met the eunuch. When he saw Eunuch Liao, he didn't even have time to greet him and said, "The prince was about to ask you to go in, but it has been half an hour since the palace was discussing matters."
Eunuch Liao nodded his head and walked in quickly. He only pointed at the guards standing at the door, and signed up. After a moment of stopping, he heard King Lu's voice: "Come in."
As soon as Eunuch Liao entered the door, the atmosphere felt strange. King Lu's eyes were dark. Eunuch Liao didn't dare to look at it anymore. He just glanced at it and knelt down.
"Get up, you ran overnight and came back after three hundred miles. Thank you for your hard work." Lu Wang said lightly.
Eunuch Liao did not stand up, and kowtowed repeatedly and said, "I am guilty of doing things, so I will ask the prince to punish you."
"Forget it, I have also received a detailed report on your business. You should be careful every step of the way. I just don't want the Earth Immortal to be so powerful. However, since you have done a lot of work, you should be punished."
"I will now cut off your position as a transshipment officer and be careful in the future." Lu Wang said.
Eunuch Liao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Prince!"
Then he stood up and stood carefully.
The palace returned to silence. After a long time, King Lu sighed and said, "Zheng Xie is alive, I have been repeatedly subjected to his plans. He has made great contributions to the present..."
"I have ordered people to sacrifice. I originally wanted to kill Pei Ziyun and sacrifice him with a head." When Lu Wang said this, he suddenly lowered his voice: "I didn't expect it to be the result."
"The Earth Immortal, the person in the Immortals' Biography, is skeptical, and I don't want to really see it now."
Everyone lowered their heads and stopped talking. King Lu glanced at him, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I won't talk about this anymore. I originally defeated Zhongqin Bo. Our army was in great momentum. Pei Ziyun blocked and assassinated repeatedly. Gu was very suspicious that the court wanted to get time to adjust. Now for the current plan, what should I do?"
A civil servant stood up and said, "Prince, not only the court wants to buy time, but we also want to buy time. Our army has only two or three months left. Even the county magistrate and prefect have not been cleaned up. Many of them are still appointed as guards. If the military pay is added, it is very expensive. According to the opinions of the ministers, we have to slow down before we can move the troops again."
"This is a bad word!" Another person said, "I don't understand those principles, but I understand that although our army has two states, it is just a corner of the world for the court. If it is dragged on, the court will transfer the army that has won the new victory in the south, which will be extremely difficult to deal with."
This will make your face flush and throw it to the ground and make you sound.
When Lu Wang listened to the thought of silent words, he suddenly felt a little discouraged. Xie Chengdong was there and he solved all difficulties in one sentence, but now he is repeatedly arguing. Thinking about this, Lu Wang narrowed his eyes and looked at the setting sun outside, without saying a word for a long time.
At this moment, a voice appeared: "I have something to say."
"Li Cheng? Is there room for you to speak here?" Someone scolded. King Lu woke up and waved his hand, saying, "Let's talk!"
"Yes!" The blind Taoist responded, his eyes flashed: "Just just now, Lord Xu said that Xindezhou should have time to govern, and General Zhang said that he could not give the court time to arrange it calmly. In fact, it makes sense, but the empress dowager said that the momentum of the king was the most important."
"Just like a snowball, once the snowball stops, the snowball will collapse soon."
"In the opinion of the weak minister, these two can be completely parallel, and war can be used to win the stability and governance time in the rear."
The civil servant named Xu sneered: "As soon as the army moves, the food and grass are like mountains, we have to plunder the people's food, and even recruit strong men to maintain logistics and new recruits. The fields are deserted, how can we manage them?"
"Mr. Xu, the way to use troops is to care about the timing and the sharpness. If Zhongqin Bo is here, even if we have sharp edges, we will not be able to do anything to the iron barrel."
"Now Zhongqinbo has been defeated, and there are not iron barrels around him, but wooden barrels."
"The king, if the soldiers are in the world, there are not many soldiers. If we gather our army to release a brilliant general, we will be in charge of the king. We will be able to attack the city and leap the land like a hot blade inserted into butter."
"This will buy time for the rear, and the food and salary will not be consumed much."
"And our army has many new recruits. Instead of spending ten times the number of people, but with little success, it is better to train strictly. This is a matter of winning multiple goals in one fell swoop." The blind Taoist said clearly and did not give in at a single step.
King Lu listened and pondered silently, suddenly looked at him with a surprise, turned around and said to someone, "How is the situation around?"
"The prince, since the prince defeated Zhongqin Bo and had great righteousness in the Jingnan Dynasty, the people of Chenzhou were in panic. Many officials contacted him privately, hoping that the king's army would take Chenzhou as soon as possible."
One person was responsible for counter-espionage, which was quite effective, and he was willing to report to King Lu.
"Okay, Gu Yi has decided, immediately mobilize the elite troops into an army, and Gu personally leads the attack on Chenzhou. You are either responsible for administration or training, and you must not slackewer."
