Zhang Ke hurriedly put on his armor and rushed to Cao Su's camp to see him.
"Sir, you are finally back."
Zhang Ke was also very excited when he saw Cao Su. After not seeing him for a few days, he felt as if he had lost his soul. He was under pressure that he shouldn't have to bear from the inside out.
If it weren't for Zhao Xi's help, he felt like he couldn't pretend anymore.
Cao Su nodded and motioned for him to sit down.
"Brother Zhang, I heard some rumors when I went out this time."
"A demonic Buddha has appeared in Lingzhou. Several large sects have gathered in the Dongling Mountains. Even Faguang Temple, which has always been secretive, has dispatched top experts to suppress this demonic Buddha."
When Zhang Ke heard the news, his jaw dropped in surprise.
Wait, what is Mofo?
He was slightly stunned, but he didn't have the nerve to tell his superiors that he didn't understand, so he had to agree first: "Sir, the appearance of the demon Buddha is a big deal."
The appearance of the demon Buddha must be a big event, and it is also related to him.
Now several major sects are gathering in the Dongling Mountains, but Cao Su has no source of information in the short term.
He needs someone to pass on the latest news from the major sects in Lingzhou to him.
That's why he called his current intelligence chief over.
Cao Su solemnly said: "I heard that once the Demon Buddha appears in the world, it proves that the world's karma has reached a peak. You are also aware of the current world. There are wars everywhere, people are in dire straits, and corpses are everywhere."
"Lingzhou seems peaceful, but in fact it is also turbulent and murderous."
Zhang Ke was a little panicked after what he said. He didn't know what Captain Cao meant.
Cao Su looked at him with a tense face and a very nervous look.
Laughing dumbly.
"Don't be nervous, I mainly want you to find a few more clever sergeants, not too many, just seven or eight."
"You arrange for them to be sent to various places in Lingzhou to focus on collecting information about the sect."
In Cao Su's previous arrangement, Luo Yi was responsible for arranging and collecting information about Lingzhou.
But Luo Yi's focus was mainly on the government and inquiring about news about his family. News about the sect was only passed along.
When Cao Su returned from his trip this time, he felt that Lingzhou was indeed different from Jiangzhou. The power of the sect was much stronger than that of the government.
There is no news from the government about the appearance of the Demon Buddha, but the news has gone crazy among the warriors of the sect.
It even reached the ears of low-level disciples like the Floating Shadow Sword Sect the next day.
"You can also inquire about news from the south, but it is not the main direction. The main direction is still concentrated here in Lingzhou. At least before our army arrives in Yuzhou, the focus should be on Lingzhou."
Cao Su conveyed this instruction to Zhang Ke. After Zhang Ke heard it, he immediately handed over his hand and agreed.
Zhang Ke asked: "Sir, can you pay special attention to the Demon Buddha these days?"
He saw that Cao Su was talking about the demon Buddha as soon as he came back, so he expected that Cao Su would pay attention to this matter.
Sure enough, Cao Su readily accepted his proposal.
"The incident about the Demon Buddha has become a hot topic and has spread throughout Lingzhou. Since they went out to inquire about the information, they will definitely get some information about the Demon Buddha. Bring them all back to me for a look. After all, it involves thousands of living beings and there is no room for carelessness."
Zhang Ke sighed and said: "Yeah, I don't know why the devil Buddha appears in this world."
As an intelligence officer, he became entangled in a conspiracy theory.
He made a random guess: "Sir, could it be a product specially created by a certain large sect? The theory of karma is too vague."
Cao Su had a straight face and said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense."
"The matter of the Demon Buddha is a big deal. It will not be beneficial to the major sects after it appears in this world. Who would go to such great lengths to bring it out and cause harm?"
Zhang Ke didn't expect that Cao Su was quite persistent in his view of karma, so he didn't make too many assumptions. Although as an old spy, reasonable assumptions are a necessary skill.
"There is one more thing that you have to help me arrange."
Cao Su spoke again: "It is about finalizing some road documents on the road ahead. Although there is a traffic order from the Lord of Lingzhou, thousands of lives of our army are involved, so we still need to be careful when entering the boundary of Lingzhou.
Every time you pass by a city, you have to say hello first."
This is a basic etiquette procedure. If others are not welcome, he can also make a detour in advance.
As long as it's not a dangerous gateway city like Dengcheng, that's fine.
Zhang Ke is naturally very serious when it comes to major military matters.
After the two discussed some military affairs, Zhang Ke resigned to Cao Su.
When the tent was opened at this time, the sky had turned from black to dark blue.
Another silent night passed.
.......
At dawn, Cao Jun broke out.
Although it is a slow march, the daily march time is still arranged relatively early.
Cao Su tidied up his camp with his own hands this time, which made some of the auxiliary troops who came over very excited. They all praised Cao Su for being a good man who did everything himself.
Several centurions hurried over to pay their respects. After not seeing Cao Su for two days, he felt as if he had lost his soul.
Cao Su comforted them one by one and arranged for Li Li, the last one to arrive, to help carry his bedding and clothes to the car.
"Why should I move?"
Li Li immediately became dissatisfied. After all, he was a powerful centurion. How could he do such a despicable thing?
Cao Su had no intention of exploiting Li Li. He just wanted Li Li, who had always been more arrogant, to feel down to earth.
"Li Li, I see that you are very talented in swordsmanship. I have been planning to teach you the Feilong Sword. If you are not willing to help me..."
Cao Su didn't finish his words.
Li Li rushed over like an arrow from a string.
He snatched Cao Su's bedding from several auxiliary soldiers and said fiercely: "Don't move, I'll do it!"
"Master Li, you..."
Although several auxiliary soldiers were quite strong, they were still frightened by Li Li's actions.
Li Li said seriously: "It doesn't matter whether the sword is good or not. The main reason is that I have recovered from my injuries in the past few days. I just need to do some physical work to restore my strength."
"Don't move, all of you, and have a good rest. I'm here alone. Whoever touches me will be in a hurry!"
Several auxiliary soldiers were so frightened by what Li Li said that they stood upright on the spot, looking at each other in a dilemma.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cao Su waved to them and asked them to leave here.
After a few people saluted, they left in a hurry.
Li Li quickly moved all Cao Su's things onto the baggage truck.
Li Li also felt that his position as the third general in Cao Su's army was in jeopardy. Zhang Ke and Luo Yi in front of him were 50-50 and firmly ranked first and second. However, due to his previous injury, he had not contributed much to the team.
Contribution, so although he holds a high position, he has always been jealous of other centurions.
During the Battle of the Realm, he was injured more seriously than he thought. He has been recovering until now, and has not yet reached his prime.
What's worse is that his sword skills are no longer as sharp as before. After the injury, both his explosive power and impact power have declined.
He was originally at the eighth level of the power realm, one step away from the seventh level of the power realm, but now he is injured and faintly regressing.
This made Li Li feel flustered, and he had been feeling depressed recently.
In the army, the most important thing is strength. If the strength is insufficient, it will be difficult to convince the crowd.
Therefore, Li Li was eager to further improve his strength and hit a higher level.
It is a good choice to learn an advanced new sword technique for reference.
Cao Su watched Li Li finish his physical work and nodded slightly.
Showing satisfaction.
The Flying Dragon Sword is no longer useful to Cao Su. He is now majoring in the Nilong Sword, which was born out of the combination of the Flying Dragon Sword and the Breaking Wind Sword. It is faster and more powerful than these two swordsmanship, and is both offensive and defensive.
A new sword technique is very attractive to warriors.
The Flying Dragon Sword is more than powerful but lacks in variety, making it the most suitable for battlefield duels.
Cao Su is gradually promoting the Flying Dragon Sword. In the future, if he masters higher sword skills, he will promote Cao's sword skills. Warriors who have the foundation of the Flying Dragon Sword will be able to learn it more easily.
In this way, this group of people have learned his martial arts. If they want to achieve higher strength, they are not allowed to follow him?
Because except him, no one in the world knows how to use these sword skills next.
Unless you are talented enough to create your own, or you are lucky enough to pick up other magical martial arts and change your skills.
Therefore, in Cao Su's eyes, Li Li was like a guinea pig, who could just serve as a pilot.
After finishing his work, Li Li looked at Cao Su eagerly.
Cao Su smiled slightly, and without setting any levels, he took out a secret book and threw it to him.
Li Li was overjoyed. When he received the secret book, he saw that it was indeed the Flying Dragon Sword.
"Really gave it to me?"
Li Li looked in disbelief. Isn't this too simple?
He did some physical work and got a rare sword skill that advanced to a higher level?
If you tell me, who in the world will believe it?
His sect will also think that he is talking nonsense again, right?
"Practice your sword well and learn my sword skills. Even if you are half my disciple, I will come to test you after a while. Don't think that my sword skills are so easy to practice."
Isn’t this Pegasus Zhuang Jixiong’s famous swordsmanship?
After Li Li got the sword technique, he couldn't help but start shouting.
Hearing Cao Su's faint "threat", he didn't care at all, and said with a playful smile: "Don't worry, Sir, I'm not bragging, Li Li. With my talent, within one month, the Feilong Sword will be completed!"
