Yue Wei conveyed Long Chen's words truthfully, but the priest didn't believe it at all.
"Master Priest, I don't dare to say more. That's what Long Chen said."
Yue Wei felt dizzy, her eyelids were very heavy and dry, and she wanted to close her eyes and rest.
"Li Chengdao just kidnapped 80,000 barbarians. Long Chen was furious and helpless, so he resorted to this counter-intuitive trick. This thief is the most treacherous and wants you to come back with a message to provoke him."
"You can rest, I understand."
The demon spirit felt that he had seen through Long Chen's trick.
There was one missing sentence in Yue Wei's message, which was that Li Chengdao had perfected the secret technique of Xuanwu, Devouring.
If Yue Wei reveals that Li Chengdao has developed the secret skill of Devouring, the demon spirit will become suspicious and even believe that Li Chengdao killed the ghost fetus, Qin Hao.
Yue Wei was very weak, closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The demon spirit thought about whether it was necessary to report what Yue Wei had just said to the ghost girl.
After thinking for a long time, the demon walked into the ice palace where the ghost girl was.
The ghost girl couldn't get used to living in a small igloo, so the demon specially built a tall ice palace for her, with ten rooms on the left and right, and three entrances from the front and back.
Wu Sheng is training new dead soldiers in the distance, and Li Chengdao is appointed as the general.
The demon glanced into the distance and quickly walked into the ghost girl's ice palace.
The ghost girl is modifying her bone sword.
Women prefer detailed decoration, and the polished bone swords are simple and plain. The ghost girl thinks it is not good-looking, so she inlays fish eyes on the hilt.
"His Majesty."
The ghost girl asked: "Is there any news about Wang'er?"
The demon glanced at the ghost girl, then lowered his head and said nothing, as if he was hesitant to speak.
"Um?"
The ghost girl put down the bone sword in her hand and looked at the demon spirit.
"Your Majesty, Yue Wei, who was sent by Wei Chen to search for the Holy Son, has returned."
The demon pretended to be embarrassed and reported.
The ghost girl heard that there must be a hidden secret, and immediately asked: "Tell me!"
The demon spirit said in embarrassment: "Yue Wei had her arms torn off by Long Chen, her consciousness was blurred, and she was deceived by Long Chen."
The ghost girl frowned and said angrily: "Tell me the important point!"
The demon spirit replied: "Long Chen asked Yue Wei to say something, saying that the Holy Son and Qin Hao are dead, and the murderer is Li Chengdao!"
When the ghost girl heard that the ghost fetus was dead, her beautiful face became ferocious and terrifying.
When she heard that the murderer was Li Chengdao, the ghost girl suddenly laughed wildly: "The murderer is Li Chengdao? Does Long Chen think I'm stupid?"
The ghost girl had the same idea as the demon spirit. She felt that Li Chengdao could not kill the ghost fetus and did not dare to kill the ghost fetus.
Besides, Qin Hao's cultivation level is so high that even Long Chen can't kill Qin Hao. Who is Li Chengdao? How can he kill Qin Hao?
"Wei Chen also thought that this was Long Chen's counterintuitive plan and should not have been reported. Wei Chen did not dare to make a private decision, so he still said it."
The devil felt that it was impossible for Li Chengdao to kill the ghost fetus, so she reported this matter to leave a bad impression on the ghost girl.
If the ghost fetus is never found, the ghost girl will suspect Li Chengdao.
The devil did this to leave a hidden danger, lest Li Chengdao become powerful in the future and threaten her status.
Li Chengdao captured 80,000 barbarians this time. Wu Sheng and the ghost girl were very satisfied. They even became generals under Wu Sheng. The demon spirits felt threatened.
"Huh, don't pay attention. Let's continue sending people to look for Wang Er."
The ghost girl didn't believe it at all and thought it was a counter-intuitive plan. The demon did not dare to say anything more and sent people out to look for it.
...
Yanmen Pass.
After leaving Yuncheng, Long Chen returned to the south of Yanmen Pass and entered Mazhen.
It was very lively here, and the profit-seeking merchants were not affected by the war. On the contrary, because of the large number of barbarians gathered, business was more prosperous.
Long Chen, wearing a bamboo hat, stopped in front of an inn.
The inn was very busy, the waiter was very busy, and no one greeted Long Chen.
The war horses were tied in front of the inn, and Long Chen entered the inn.
There are people of all kinds from all walks of life, businessmen, knights, singers and divas... all mixed together.
Long Chen walked to an upper room and raised his hand to knock on it.
The door opened and Yan Shuangyu stood inside. Seeing Long Chen, Yan Shuangyu grabbed Long Chen happily and dragged him into the room.
Bang!
The door of the room was slammed hard, and Yan Shuangyu pushed Long Chen on the bed. The embroiderer noticed that Long Chen had come in, and shouted happily: "Finally, you have time to find us. How do the two princesses taste? The bridegroom Guan'er
, Prince Consort?”
The two princesses, Di Yuwei and Di Lingyi, were taken under Long Chen's command, and everyone knew about this.
Moreover, since then, Long Chen has been very busy, and the three sisters rarely see each other.
Of course they felt left out, so they still had grudges against Long Chen.
"You still know we're here."
Meng Lan was the first to hold down Long Chen, grabbing his collar with one hand, like riding a horse.
"My three ladies, we are really busy with military affairs. It's not that I don't remember you in my heart."
Yan Shuangyu came over and said with a smile: "Don't think about leaving so easily once you're here. If you don't take good care of the three of us, you can never leave."
The embroiderer chuckled and said, "What about drawing lots?"
Meng Lan smiled and said: "I have already taken my place. If I don't want to draw lots with you, I will come first."
...
The morning of the third day.
When Long Chen came down from the inn, the war horse tied at the door was actually stolen.
The town of Ma is a mixed bag of good and bad, with many traders, footmen, and thieves. It would be strange if your war horses were not stolen if you don't go downstairs for three days.
After spending money to buy a horse, Long Chen slowly returned to Yanmen Pass.
As soon as they arrived at Yanmen Pass, the empress called Long Chen to the pavilion to discuss matters.
"Aren't you too tired from running back and forth?"
The empress felt distressed when she saw that Long Chen had some dark circles under his eyes.
She didn't know that the dark circles under her eyes were not caused by running back and forth, but by being sucked dry by the three vixens in the inn.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. It's okay. Just go back and have a good sleep."
Long Chen sighed in his heart. He had hardly rested for three days. After the physical changes of Yan Shuangyu and the three of them, their desires doubled.
"Look at this."
The empress handed Long Chen the secret note sent by Li Xiannan.
In the letter, Li Xiannan reported that Li Pu and others were secretly manufacturing ordnance in Yunqi City, and also asked about Zhenna City, which Gongsun Ming was sending troops to clear out.
"The ordnance that has been manufactured is being transported to the vicinity of Shuohai City?"
Long Chen raised his head and looked at the empress.
Su Qingchen confessed that Li Pu had sent ships to carry the weapons from the river into the sea, and then took the sea route north to the vicinity of Shuohai City.
At that time, Li Chengdao will send someone to respond.
"Yes, according to Li Xiannan's report, the number of this batch of ordnance should be around 30,000. Their speed is fast enough."
In just a few months, it was possible to build a workshop and manufacture so many weapons and armors.
The empress said: "After destroying Nanliang, we did not clean up the interior of Nanliang. This incident exposed the weakness of our control over Nanliang."
"I want to clean Nanliang, what do you think?"
Long Chen adopted a policy of tolerance for Li Pu and other old ministers.
I thought they would be grateful and return, but I didn't expect them to make a scene in the rear.
The empress felt that these people must be eliminated to avoid future troubles.
Long Chen put down the secret report and said: "Of course the rebellious ministers and traitors should be killed, but if all the old ministers and Li family members are killed, at least 100,000 people will be affected, and the Holy Lord will be notorious as a butcher."
"Moreover, too many people are killed, people's hearts are turbulent, and the fields are laid waste, which is not good for the country."
The matter this time is indeed related to the old minister, but if a massacre is carried out just like this, Long Chen does not agree.
The empress thought for a while and said: "Forget it, this batch of ordnance has been transported to the vicinity of Shuohai City. I have asked Feng He to send people to conduct a thorough investigation."
Long Chen said: "When the ordnance is transported to Shuohai City, Li Chengdao must find a way to transport it to the ice field. I want to intercept Li Chengdao halfway."
