Volume 1 Volume 1 025 Troops

"Cultivator?"

The Taoist priest couldn't help but exclaim. Once his aura bomb touches the aura shield, it will be annihilated. This old man was obviously an aura protector, so he stood in front of Yao Tai'an and saved him.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, in the Xiannan Li Kingdom, Li Ji of the Jinghong Sect, dare to ask Daoyou what to call him?"

When the old man saw the Taoist priest giving a salute, he smiled and said: "Zhao Qianbei of Beiji Kingdom, I have seen Taoist friends." ”

Seeing that the other party did not indicate the sect, Li Ji knew that it might be just a loose cultivator, so he immediately straightened his chest and said loudly: "Zhao Daoyou, this time the poor Dao taught a mortal, I don't know what Zhao Daoyou has to do with it?

The old man chuckled unconsciously when he heard this, took off the wine gourd on his waist and poured a big sip of it.

"Shocking Sect, old man, if I'm not mistaken, is it possible that there was a foundation named Miaoshan from your sect two years ago?

When Li Ji heard that the other party had heard of Senior Sister Miaoshan, he suddenly felt that his waist was even harder. Being able to be taken to other continents by the Ice Fairy made the Thrilling Flood faction famous on the entire continent. Since the other party knows the background of the Thrilling Flood faction, it saves a lot of trouble. Daring to easily offend a sect with unlimited potential like yourself is tantamount to asking for your own death.

"Fellow Daoist, this mortal killed the spirit beast that was raised by the poor Dao. A mortal who challenged the authority of a cultivator, and the poor path taught him a lesson, wouldn't it mean that the poor path broke the rules of the cultivation realm?"

Zhao Qianbei didn't answer, shook the gourd and turned around and asked, "Do you want to taste a certain wine?"

Yao Tai'an stretched out his hand to take the gourd and poured it up, then praised it: "Good wine!

Zhao Qianbei took the wine gourd, cherished it and stroked it, and said to himself: "This is the old man, I went to the Nanli Palace to steal it." There were two hundred jars of fine wine, all of which were replaced by the old man with the daughter of the city. The emperor can't understand when he drinks anyway, only people who love wine will not destroy the heavens. ”

The old man said proudly, but he didn't care about the change in the face of the Taoist priest behind him. The dignified Qi cultivation period cultivator of the Shocking Flood Sect was actually ignored by a Beiji Scattered Cultivator, which completely destroyed his self-esteem.

The Taoist priest clapped his hands and stirred out a spirit rune, and a pillar of light with a thickness of a foot rushed straight towards the two of them. Zhao Qianbei lifted Yao Tai'an and jumped away. Originally, he thought that the cultivator would use some spell to fly away with him, but he didn't expect it to be a dodge, although the body is light, but no matter how you look at it, it is a routine of ordinary martial arts.

"Daoyou is in such a hurry to do it because you want to kill people and kill people? Daoyou killing mortals may be an old man, I can ignore it, but as a fellow cultivator, do Daoyou think that my old man can still sit and wait for death now?" Although Zhao Qianbei's expression was grim, he didn't seem to see his opponent as a threat. This kind of role, he had seen since he was young. Some cultivators are much stronger than ordinary people, but their skills can't be the same as those of martial arts masters. I don't know that the actual combat experience alone is several times worse than the people in the martial arts who lick the blood at the tip of the knife.

"Dodge, right? That poor path will let you see the difference between a famous and decent family and a casual cultivator!"

Li Ji waved his hand and laid out a black and white chess piece in front of him, although these chess pieces were not a magic weapon against the sky, but they were all polished by cold jade ink crystal. He just flicked it, and the black and white chess pieces shot out towards the two of them.

Zhao Qianbei dodged left and right with a person, although he was old, but as a cultivator, his physical strength had surpassed ordinary people. In the flashes of left and right, the three hundred and sixty-one chess pieces all passed closely, and the two of them were not harmed at all.

"There are a lot of them, but the level of this secret weapon of the Thrilling Flood Sect is too average! If you want to hurt someone, I can recommend a good friend, old man. What kind of immortal method do you still learn? Compete with hidden weapons, he can win you. ”

"You still dare to laugh at my sect! I can't hurt you, see how you can keep this mortal!"

Li Ji ejected more than a dozen spiritual power projectiles one after another, these projectiles were lighter than the chess pieces, and they flew faster, and every time they hit Zhao Qianbei, they would turn into nothing, but they could shoot a scratch when they touched the grass, trees and rocks. The scratch was like a cut of steel, and if it hit a mortal, it would break bones.

It's a pity that what he met was not an ordinary cultivator, but an old man with rich experience in fighting in the rivers and lakes. In the end, these spiritual power projectiles were all stopped by his palms.

"Daoyou, can you let the old man rest first and have a sip of wine? It doesn't matter if Zhao's old bones are tossed again, but if it spreads, the famous faction of the dignified Nanli country oppresses the old and weak, and the Taoist friend can afford to lose people, and this shocking faction will also be laughed at, right?"

Li Ji saw that he failed to succeed, but was ridiculed by the other party for his sect, and the anger in his heart became stronger and stronger. He bit the tip of his tongue, and with a push of internal force, he opened his mouth and spewed out a mist of blood.

"Yin and yang, a shock!"

Li Ji waved the dust in his hand, and a three-zhang tall golden phantom appeared in front of him. This golden phantom is holding an eight-foot long whip, covered with amulet fish scale armor, and a two-foot-sized heart shield on his chest, exuding a ray of light all over his body. Li Ji forcibly stimulated the forbidden art of the sect, using blood as a guide, and replacing most of the cultivation with vitality. Although it cost a lot, it still condensed a phantom golden body after all.

"Zhao Daoyou, since you despise the divine power of my Amazing Flood Sect so much, you might as well try my secret sect Protector Golden Body. ”

The golden phantom swung his long whip high, almost smashing it down. Seeing that this phantom was burly, his face was full of hideousness, and a pair of fangs poked out of a huge mouth. Yao Tai'an was also frightened, if this was smashed down, what would be the consequences of being a mortal?

I remember that Miao Shan's predecessor used it once, and the golden body of the Dharma Protector she condensed was much thicker than yours. However, in the middle stage of Daoist Qi training, you can make your sect's unique mastery, which can also be said to be a rare talent. ”

Zhao Qianbei took out a white jade talisman in his hand, and a light and shadow reflected it with a wave of his hand. He stretched out his finger and pointed and explained seriously: "You despise it, this is the light and shadow of Miaoshan's predecessors at that time. If this is a flash of surprise, it can really be described as a rare secret technique of cultivating the truth. Xiao asked Miaoshan's seniors at the beginning, but it was a pity that the seniors claimed that the secret art of this sect should not be passed on lightly, and I and the two senior sisters were also under pressure at that time. After that, Zhao also asked for advice, and no one dared to try your faction's blow easily. But the hard work paid off, and in the end it ......"

Zhao Qianbei looked into the distance with fascination, as if recalling the past.

"Tell me! What will happen in the end?"

Li Ji saw that Zhao Qianbei suddenly stopped, and he was also curious. If others can easily crack the secret technique of this sect, then how can they dare to use it easily in the future?

Just when Li Ji was anxiously asking, a short sword pierced into the lower abdomen dantian, and Zhao Qianbei slapped the hilt of the sword with one palm, and a burst of spiritual power shot through the opponent's body.

"In the end, Zhao found that this glimpse consumes a huge amount of spiritual power, so the old man, I have been with you for a long time, just to wait for the moment when you run out of spiritual power. ”

Li Ji looked at Zhao Qianbei in disbelief, and asked with difficulty, "Why...... You're going to ...... with me I'm the enemy?"

Zhao Qianbei took off the storage bag from his waist, shook his head after his divine sense penetrated, and said with a long sigh: "It's okay, you are poor, I thought you were modest, but I didn't expect you to be really poor! More than two hundred spirit stones, not a single magic weapon, two low-grade spirit runes, a bottle of Qi Gathering Pill, can you be poorer?"

Li Ji saw the other party looting his storage bag, and sneered from time to time, what he regretted most now was that he hadn't swallowed his breath yet.

"I ...... Master will ...... For...... I'll report ...... Hatred!"

Zhao Qianbei lost his anger when he saw Li Ji say this, so he opened his storage bag and put it in it.

"The senior is really skilled, he killed an immortal so quickly!" Yao Tai'an looked at Zhao Qianbei with a look of admiration, obviously the other party was also very proud of his cultivation.

"What kind of immortal, it's just a little cultivator who cultivates true qi. Mortals such as you know very little about monks, and they are called immortals when they have some abilities. He is just a little more subtle than mortals, if he really dares to call himself an immortal, I am afraid that he will be caught by other monks for alchemy. ”

"Senior, Tai'an once again thank you for saving your life. Yao will never mention the matter of cultivators with others when he goes back this time. ”

Zhao Qianbei smiled and nodded, but he was provocative: "Xiaoyou said that he wouldn't mention it, which made Zhao a little tricky." This is because the things of the cultivation realm are logically impossible to spread by the mundane realm. What's more, old man, I also killed your sect disciples of the Nanli Kingdom, if I let you go, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the world!"

Yao Tai'an couldn't help but be shocked when he heard what the other party said. Did he just get out of the tiger's mouth and enter the wolf's den again? But what explanation did the other party give for trying his best to save him just now? Could it be that he was killed by a Taoist priest, and it shouldn't be easier for the old man to kill the Taoist priest again? Or beg this old man to ...... He wants to take himself as an apprentice?

"What are the plans of the seniors? Do you want Tai'an to worship under the seniors? Isn't Yao lucky enough to be able to cultivate the truth?"

Zhao Qianbei looked strange when he heard this, and then shook his head and smiled: "Don't think about cultivation in your life, old man, I mean to watch you for a while to make sure that you don't reveal the secrets of the cultivation realm." Of course, you can't reveal the identity of the old man, help me get some good wine every day, and arrange other things casually. ”

Yao Tai'an saw that he had no chance to cultivate the truth, although he was a little lonely, but it was a good thing that he survived in the end. Therefore, he accompanied Zhao Qianbei and walked back to Shouyin City.

For more than half a month, Yao Tai'an went around to buy good wine in addition to taking care of the store's accounts. came and went with this Zhao Qianbei and became acquainted. Seeing that he had been out for a long time, Yao Tai'an planned to go back to Shoulin Town. As a result, Zhao Qianbei did not stop him, and happily accompanied him home.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed, Yao Nianye and Zhao Qianbei have become more and more acquainted, and the old man is very happy with a grandfather. Once Zhao Qianbei even gave the child a piece of beautiful jade, just looking at this material is a priceless high-quality.

"Senior Zhao, don't spoil this child too much. He is only four years old, and if he is used to enjoying a rich life, I am afraid that he will not be able to withstand the blows of ups and downs in the future!"

Zhao Qianbei glanced at Yao Tai'an, and said indifferently: "This little baby has a relationship with the old man, and I like the old man when I look at him." Where will he encounter any big ups and downs in the future? With the old man here, he is bound to reach Kangtai in his life. It's a big deal if someone is looking for trouble, so the old man will settle it all for him!"

Before Zhao Qianbei could speak, a family member rushed in in a hurry outside the door.

"Master, something is wrong! There is news from Shouyin City that Nanli urgently recruits soldiers, and all men over the age of 16 and under the age of 40 are conscripted into the army. The army has crossed the Shou River this morning and hit the Beiji Fufeng City!"

Yao Tai'an's face changed sharply when he heard this, his business radiated to the three countries of North Jin, Jin, Li and West Vietnam, if the war broke out, it would inevitably affect his family's business. Besides, in the conscription of these three countries, most of the strong men in their stores are strong, and if the fight continues, then I am afraid that these subordinates of their own will also have to put on armor and enlist in the army.

"Since it is your mortal war, just go. The old man helps you take care of your family and cut off your worries. ”

Seeing that Jia Ding withdrew, Yao Tai'an was still worried, and Zhao Qianbei suddenly spoke behind him.

"Senior, Yao is worried that the Yao family will be involved in the war! Yao and his wife were originally from Beiji, and this time the southern barber soldiers were in Beiji, didn't this make Yao kill each other?"

Zhao Qianbei looked disdainful when he heard this, and asked rhetorically: "The two countries exchanged troops, and it was the people who suffered. You are but a commoner, how can you stop the war? You know, the water is widely gathered in feasible boats, and when you are young, you can bathe in the seedlings. But when the embankment bursts, it is not the flowing water that once nourished the people? You are a mortal, but you are just a drop of clear water among all living beings, and the beacon fire of these two countries is the disaster of the river embankment bursting. If you want not to be held back and go with the flow, you must become the mainstream of national affairs. ”

Yao Tai'an nodded silently, with his strength, he could take part of his family to migrate. But if you do so, the rest of you will still be involved in the war. It's hard to get out anyway, so why should you have a pity to escape?

"Senior, Yao has decided, so he will send people to gather in the prime of life to set up recruits. The rest of the business is left to the old guys. I don't know how long this war will last, so Yao asked everyone to maintain business as much as possible. When the world is peaceful in the future, Yao will leave a way for these guys to survive. ”

Zhao Qianbei saw that he was going to gather troops to enlist, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Immediately, Yao Tai'an ordered the family to rush to various places to spread the news, and all the Yao family Zhuang Ding returned to Shoulin Town. However, in three days, when the officials recruited by the imperial court came to Shoulin, there was already a team of nearly 1,000 people to escort the place.

"What is Master Yao's explanation? Tan, the strong man on the roster, has been recruited by Master Yao, if he doesn't bring people back this time, I'm afraid the court will blame him!"

One of the leaders complained with a smile on his face.

"Brother Tan was too worried, and knew that I was recruiting troops in Nanli, so Yao gathered his subordinates to form a team. Later, the people of the town knew that we were recruiting, so they simply defected. Anyway, they are all recruited by the imperial court, one person is also recruited, and a team of people is also recruited. Yao helped the imperial court recruit a team in advance, didn't he also save Brother Tan from summoning around?"

Yao Tai'an saw that the other party was smiling, and then added: "But Brother Tan, Yao's team is all children of relatives, so the imperial court can recruit soldiers, but this force must not be split." My Yao family doesn't ask for any marquis to worship the prime minister, but only hopes that this expedition can live and die together. If the head of the court can rely on it, then Tai'an is willing to go into battle. ”

Tan Dun heard the hidden meaning of this, if he didn't integrate the whole team, he was afraid that he would have to fight to the death.

"Master Yao, this is worrying about the country! Good thing, good thing! Tan will go back to Tongyu, and you are waiting for the good news. ”

"It's coming. It's never too late to go after the drinks and food. Otherwise, Brother Tan will leave like this, and there will be rumors outside the world that I will not be able to be a man when I am dying!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then went to Yao's mansion to eat and drink hand in hand.

Ten days later, the armor was distributed, and a team of 1,000 people went down the river and went straight to Zeqing according to the order of the imperial court.

"Captain Yao, we should be able to arrive in Zeqing tomorrow. This journey is smooth sailing, and there will be no delay for any time. I don't know if we can go into the city and enjoy it when we get to the place. That Beiji is just an emperor, how can he arrange troops?"

Yao Tai'an looked at Zhou Qing beside him with satisfaction, and agreed with a smug face: "What my Nanli Heavenly Master pointed out must be invincible. This time, Yao was able to be appointed as a lieutenant, which was all recommended by Zhou to join the army. Let's go back to the cabin and summon our colleagues for a drink. When I wake up, it will probably be dawn. ”

Yao Tai'an praised it on his lips, but in his heart he knew the origin of his captain. Thousands of people enlisted in the army, and the imperial court gave a lieutenant who needed someone to help recommend? However, it was the imperial court that sent him to join the army with the intention of swaying his own command, and this point was self-evident.

At the end of the feast, everyone's eyes were confused. The words exchanged are also less scruples. If you only listen to the words of a few people, it seems that the ten strongest people in the Nanli Kingdom are all on this banquet, and everyone here can lead 100,000 iron horsemen.

It is said that it is to wake up at dawn, and the words before drinking are often somewhat contrary to the truth. It was nearly noon, and the ships were all anchored on the shore, but still no one woke up the commander-in-chief.

This team has no intention of fighting, and everyone is happy to be idle. So except for dozens of people who lit a fire on the shore to cook, the rest of the nearly 1,000 people took a nap on the boat.

In the distance, a group of fast horses galloped towards them, and when they reached the shore, they heard an angry curse.

"You pampered waste materials, you have become officers and soldiers today, and you can't get rid of the stinky problem! Where is the leader of the team! Come out quickly, this commander will take over your team!"

Yao Tai'an was not drunk in the first place, but when he heard someone scolding in the boat, he knew that someone in the army was coming to find trouble, and this kind of noisy dream thing was often angry and resentful.

"In Xia Yao Tai'an, he served as the captain of Nanli Kingdom, and the Son of Heaven ordered Yao's commander Shou Linjun to go to Zeqing in person. This general said that he would take over if he wanted to take over, did he treat Yao as a dummy?"

The visitor saw Yao Tai'an walking out of the cabin wearing a red leather armor, still holding a golden and red helmet in his hand, and then mocked disdainfully: "What kind of bullshit lieutenant? That's just some means used by the imperial court to prevent you from mutiny." Now that everyone has reached the realm of their own command, where can they still allow Del and others to be arrogant in the army?"

The person who came took the bow and arrow from the side, lightly stretched the ape's arm, loosened his two fingers, and a black arrow shot towards Yao Tai'an's armpit helmet.

"Ahh

With an exclamation, Yao Tai'an hurriedly dodged, but the direction of the dodge was a little off, and the arrow hit him impartially, and before he could speak, the whole person fell outside the hatch.
