Zhang Sui thought about the time and realized that it was early August. If the information was true, there would only be one month left.
Zhang Sui stopped the chopsticks in his hand and asked, "How was this time determined?"
Lao Lu lowered his head to eat and said vaguely: "The result of the discussion between the two parties!"
Zhang Sui: "???"
Is there such an operation?
Zhang Sui couldn't help but said: "Why does it feel like the war between the two clans is like a joke?"
Hearing this, Lao Lu was silent for a moment, then slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table.
Meng Zhen on the side glanced at him worriedly, then silently picked up food for Xiaoyu.
Lao Lu chuckled and said, "If Mr. Tuqi hadn't brought me to a high-level meeting a few days ago, I might have thought that everything I did was to avenge those brothers!"
Although there was a smile on his face, there was endless grief, anger and murderous intent in his laughter.
Zhang Sui frowned and said, "What's going on?"
Lao Lu grabbed the wine bottle on the table and took a big gulp.
This wine is not ordinary wine, but brewed by Zhang Sui using fruits from the Lingtian in Ruyi Realm. It tastes sweet and is actually very strong.
Lao Lu took one gulp and his face suddenly turned red.
Lao Lu breathed out the breath of alcohol, shook his head, and said, "Good guy, that's so exciting!"
Zhang Sui said nothing and waited for him to explain.
Lao Lu pushed away the wine pot, looked at Zhang Sui and sneered: "Can you believe it? This conflict between the two tribes, from the beginning to the present, actually happened with the tacit approval of the top leaders of the two tribes!
Those brothers who shed their lives and blood for the human race from the beginning of the conflict are just a group of cannon fodder with the tacit consent!"
As he spoke, his voice changed from calm to sad and angry. His old face, whether from anger or alcohol, turned red!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Sui paused with his bamboo chopsticks in the air, looking a little stunned.
Lao Lu continued: "Millions of human race people were displaced and died at the hands of foreigners. Tens of thousands of soldiers, in order to protect the territory, were stained with blood on the battlefield, and their bones were difficult to survive.
These tragedies are as light as feathers in the eyes of those big shots, and all the efforts made by us, the rough guys, are just a joke!"
At this point, I was completely gritting my teeth and all my veins were showing.
Meng Zhen, who had been silent all the time, looked at Lao Lu with a worried look on her face, wanting to say something, but in the end she didn't.
Zhang Sui felt as if a huge boulder was pressing down on his heart, and he let out a sigh of relief. He said in a deep voice: "Given your position, you shouldn't know these inside stories!"
Lao Lu shook his head and said: "Yes, I really shouldn't know, but someone accepted your favor and wanted to pass this information to you through me. I guess it depends on what you have been doing these days, and I don't want you to be too desperate.
That’s all.”
Zhang Sui raised his eyebrows and said, "Tucci?"
Lao Lu nodded, grabbed the wine bottle that was pushed aside and took another big sip.
Zhang Sui stood up and looked in the direction of the human camp. Although it was dozens of miles away, with his eyesight, he could still see the lights that stretched for hundreds of miles.
Lao Lu came to Zhang Sui with a wine flask in hand. Like him, he looked in the direction of the camp, but in his eyes, everything was pitch black.
Lao Lu whispered: "There is a big problem in the inner earth realm of the alien race, forcing them to abandon the place where they have lived for tens of thousands of years, and break through the barrier between the two realms to come here. To put it bluntly, it is just an escape.
Speaking of which, our human race may face this kind of problem just like them, but we just haven't announced it to the outside world.
Due to the coldness of lips and teeth, the top leaders of the two tribes had communicated a hundred years ago, but those of us below didn’t know about it at all.”
Zhang Suidao said: "Since the two tribes have already communicated, we can just open a gap in advance and let them come up. Why would there be such a big conflict?"
Lao Lu sighed: "How can it be so simple? If the alien race comes up and wants to break the barrier, it will require a lot of blood sacrifices. And for our own reasons, our human race also hopes to weaken some of the opponent's strength when they come up.
So it’s okay to come up, but you have to pay the price!”
When Zhang Sui heard this, he thought of the hundreds of thousands of people he had rescued from the foreign-occupied areas. With the strength of the Yan Dynasty that he saw now, was there really no way to save those people?
Now it seems that may not be the case.
Those people are most likely to be the tacitly approved blood sacrifices, right? No wonder there aren't any important figures among them!
Thinking of this, Zhang Sui couldn't help but feel angry!
Lao Lu then sighed: "If it is really to protect the territory of our human race, for us soldiers, it is normal for us soldiers to wrap their bodies in horse leather, and there will be no complaints.
But in this situation, I feel really uneasy when I think about those brothers who are still risking their lives fighting against the aliens in this dense forest!"
Zhang Sui asked: "Only people of which level know these inside stories?"
Lao Lu said: "Only those at the level of commander-in-chief or above should know some of the situation. Those who really know the details are probably only the big shots in the upper echelons of the imperial court."
Zhang Sui nodded, knowing that this information would definitely not be known to the ordinary sergeants below, otherwise the morale of the army would definitely be in chaos, and that would be the real disaster.
Zhang Suidao: "Did Tuqi tell you anything?"
Lao Lu nodded and said, "He mentioned it to me in a vague way."
Zhang Suidao: "What are you talking about?"
Lao Lu said: "Tucci told me that the second master's actions have prevented more than half of the losses of the human race in the original plan. He wants to thank you on behalf of those ordinary soldiers!"
Zhang Sui was a little puzzled when he heard this.
Lao Lu shook his head and said, "I don't understand very well. He only said these few words and asked me to bring them to you."
Zhang Sui nodded, although he didn't understand why Tucci said that. Since he said this, it must be some of his previous actions that had some impact on the overall situation.
Zhang Sui looked at Lao Lu and asked, "Then what are your plans now?"
Lao Lu sighed: "What can we plan? In the military, sometimes we can't help ourselves, but now that I know this information, although I can't spread it, I will make some arrangements to try to make it less difficult for brothers.
Take the loss!”
Having said this, Lao Lu looked at Zhang Sui and said: "Thanks to the talismans of the Second Master, the brothers around me are equivalent to having an extra life. I hope they can save their lives in this game between the big shots."
Zhang Sui could only nod his head when he heard this.
With his current strength, it would be impossible to change the entire situation.
Even though he now has many trump cards in his hand and a group of pawns that can be used at any time, after all, he has not broken through the fairyland and has no ability to change the overall situation.
And judging from his experience during this period, among the two clans, Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger are not something that he, a cultivator at the pinnacle of the Immortal Realm, can turn the world around.
Just when Zhang Sui was considering whether he wanted to get involved in this game of big shots, four auras suddenly appeared within the scope of his spiritual consciousness.
Four cultivators at the peak of the Immortal Realm are coming towards the mountain peak where they are located, and it seems that the target should be them.
Soon these four people appeared in the air a hundred feet away. Zhang Sui took a closer look and frowned. They were four black-armored guards. These people should be the guards of the royal family.
The first person raised his hands and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Chen has met Dean Zhang!"
Zhang Sui returned the greeting with his hands raised and said, "General Zhu is so polite. How many of you are here to look for me?"
Zhu Chen, the black-armored guard, looked at Lao Lu and the others around Zhang Sui, and said, "Uncle Huang has invited Dean Zhang to speak, and General Lu and fellow Taoist Meng are also with us."
Zhang Sui's heart moved and he glanced at Lao Lu beside him.
Lao Lu also happened to look at him, and when he saw Zhang Sui looking over, he smiled bitterly.
Zhang Sui understood in his heart, turned around and nodded to Zhu Chen: "Since the emperor has invited me, I must obey. General Zhu, please lead the way!"
Zhu Chen nodded and flew back first.
Zhang Sui waved his sleeves and took the objects on the peak into the Ruyi Realm. A sword energy turned into a small boat, carrying Lao Lu and others following closely behind.
The other three black-armored guards fell behind a few steps intentionally or unintentionally, protecting a few people in the center, and a group of people headed towards the camp.
