Chapter 1282 Hongmen Banquet
In a private house in Wugu City, Lu Meng was sitting in the hall, looking at the food on the table, not knowing what to think.
Two minutes later, Hu Lang walked into the room with a wine pot and said to Lu Meng: "Fourth Master, we have made arrangements. This pot of wine contains the latest anesthetic developed by the Oxygen Company, which can cause nerve paralysis in people's limbs.
, but it won’t harm people’s central nervous system, so you’d better take the antidote first.”
Lu Meng took the ampoule from Hu Lang's hand, opened it, poured the medicine into his mouth and drank it: "Will this medicine work on demons?"
Hu Lang placed the wine bottle on the table: "Don't worry, I bought this thing at a big price from the Demon Hunter Team of Oxygen Company. It is specially used to deal with demons. Oxygen Company is worried
Ordinary anesthetics will affect spiritual demons, so they have been improved."
"Well." After listening to Hu Lang's explanation, Lu Meng stopped continuing the topic and asked, "How is the military deployment of the First Division?"
"Don't worry, everything is normal. Our two divisions stationed in Xiejialing have begun to dispatch in batches to prepare to block the roads in Lingnan. As soon as the fighting begins, the troops will immediately send their glorious armed forces to support Qiong Ling.
The road is blocked.”
After Hu Lang answered Lu Meng's question, he whispered: "Fourth Master, do you think we need to make any other preparations?"
"No, tonight's Qiong Ling is the home ground of the Independent Column and has nothing to do with us." Lu Meng shook his head: "As long as my plan can be implemented smoothly, I can keep the Starlight Armed Forces away from this incident by detaining Ning Zhe.
Right and wrong, when my second brother's army arrives and completely seals Qiong Ling, even if Ning Zhe wants to take action, he will have no chance."
Hu Lang sighed after listening to Lu Meng's words.
Lu Meng raised his eyebrows: "Why, are you feeling sorry for the revolutionary army?"
"Of course not. I am a member of the Lu family. In my opinion, people from the revolutionary army are not worthy of sympathy."
Hu Lang answered without hesitation and curled his lips and said: "I'm just worried about the relationship between you and Ning Zhe. We all know him well. Ning Zhe is a very cold-blooded person. He never likes to meddle in others' affairs.
But he is also a stubborn person, and he will choose to pay for anyone he can recognize as a friend, regardless of the cost.
It is said that Su Fei of the revolutionary army saved his life more than once. Although you are detaining Ning Zhe in this way, although it is for his own good, from Ning Zhe's perspective, you are letting him watch.
It would be too cruel to watch one's friends die.
I can even imagine you and Ning Zhe quarreling now, and I don’t even know how you can continue to get along as friends in the future."
"None of this is important anymore. What Ning Zhe said to you before is right. A politician doesn't need friends. Now that I have decided to go to the Northern Military Region, I am ready to change myself. But before I change myself, I want to
Give yourself an explanation, I don’t want to make myself feel regretful and disgusting when I recall the past.”
Lu Meng lit a cigarette: "Now I just want Ning Zhe to escape this storm and live in peace. It doesn't matter whether we are friends or not."
While the two were talking, an orderly walked into the hall, straightened his chest and said, "Sir, the guest has arrived outside the door."
"call!"
Lu Meng exhaled a breath, then stretched out his hands to rub his face: "Invite them in."
"yes!"
The orderly agreed, then turned around and ran out the door.
Thirty seconds later, Cao Xinglong and Shangguan Xiaohu, one on the left and the other on the right, helped Ning Zhe walk into the hall.
Ning Zhe is a refugee who has been hunting since he was a child. His physical fitness is surprisingly good and he has always given people a feeling of vitality.
Now he has not recovered from his serious injury. His eye sockets are sunken and his face is sallow. Because of the injury to his abdomen, his figure also looks a little rickety.
Seeing Ning Zhe's condition, Lu Meng subconsciously stood up from the wine table and walked quickly towards Ning Zhe: "Why are you injured so badly?"
"Is it serious? I think it's okay!" Ning Zhe smiled, stretched out the wound on his abdomen, and grinned in pain: "I'm fine, it's just a flesh wound. It will be fine after a while."
"It's because of me that I made you suffer." Lu Meng stretched out his hand to hold Ning Zhe's arm and said with a guilty look: "I have heard Hu Lang tell you what happened that night in Longcang. You shouldn't hide this kind of thing.
Hold me."
Ning Zhe shrugged: "I wanted to go quietly, but I didn't expect it to be a mess."
"Sit down and chat." Lu Meng helped Ning Zhe sit down at the table, and then sat next to him: "Sometimes I think about it, the relationship between the two of us is really wonderful. When I first met you,
I only regarded you as a little bad guy from the bottom of society, and thought you were somewhat useful. I never thought of you as a friend, but I never expected that you would become my best friend.
As a fortress person, especially with my status, it is incredible to be able to become friends with a refugee. Now that I think about it, I owe you a lot along the way."
Ning Zhe glanced sideways at Lu Meng: "What is your identity, buddy?"
"Hahaha, uncle." Lu Meng laughed loudly, and then picked up the wine bottle: "Drink some with me, I know you are injured and should not drink, but when I leave this time, we won't know
When can we meet again?"
"Okay, have a drink." Ning Zhe didn't show any pretense. He picked up a wine glass and placed it in front of him: "When you return to the capital this time, where did the higher-ups transfer you?"
"The Northern Military Region is the northernmost part of the Lu Family. It is close to Lu Family's large granary and the sea. It is considered the most peaceful region of the Lu Family. The Northern Military Region rarely participates in foreign wars, and its combat effectiveness is the weakest among the major military regions.
But the administrative level is the same. The Lu family internally refers to the Northern Military Region as the training center for senior generals. Only when you perform well in the Northern Military Region and are transferred to other military regions can you officially become a prince with power."
Lu Meng clinked glasses with Ning Zhe and said in a calm tone: "My transfer this time is to serve as the chief of staff of a certain division in the Northern Military Region. The level has been lowered, but I have more real power and my status will be improved accordingly.
After all, the nature of a large military zone and a mercenary force are completely different."
Ning Zhe took a sip of the white wine in his glass and said, "Anyway, it's a good thing to be able to leave this hellish place like the border gate. Congratulations."
The two of them chatted and drank more and more wine. During this process, Lu Meng was always looking at his watch.
Chapter completed!
