Chapter 82: The Lonely Throne
"Okay. Wang Xiaoer did not shirk and took the medicine handed over by Lu Fusheng.
"Today, there are still important things to do, don't delay the hour. Black impermanence reminded on the side.
The four of them said goodbye, and the black and white impermanence took Lu Fusheng to continue to march towards Dali Temple.
On the way, Bai Wuchang cocked his orchid finger and said to himself: "The slut is of low quality, that medicine is an elixir refined by an alchemist, no matter how low the grade is, it is also worth a lot, this stunned boy didn't even say a word of thanks." ”
Bai Wuchang knew that the Nine Turns Great Returning Pill offered by King Wei was from Lu Fusheng's hand, and he believed in his heart that Lu Fusheng was an alchemist, and the Taoist priest was just his disguise. So he didn't seem to be surprised that Lu Fusheng was able to take out the elixir casually.
Without waiting for Lu Fusheng to explain, Hei Wuchang said first: "Do you think that kid doesn't know? People can't even say a word when they encounter a problem that they know and can't solve." It seems that this kid doesn't know how to repay the Taoist chief. ”
Hearing Hei Wuchang's answer, Bai Wuchang nodded seriously, his attitude was very sincere, and then he asked Lu Fusheng puzzled: "Then why do you still want to ask him for money? Isn't it better to give it all to him directly, and you can also get a good reputation, don't you say any for the dignity of that kid to deceive people." And that stunned boy knows that he can't repay you, so he still has to open his mouth to ask?"
Lu Fusheng said in a deep voice: "His name is Wang Xiaoer, one of the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army who guarded on Xuanwu Avenue last night. The wounds on his body were left by the group of scholars who had lost their minds and gone crazy, and it deserved to be respected, and even more deserving of a name. ”
Sensing Bai Wuchang's face that began to change, Lu Fusheng fearlessly continued: "How can a merchant give it away for nothing, if you want to get something from me, you have to exchange it at an equal price. At this moment, the expression on Lu Fusheng's face was the same as sitting in the reception desk of Moshang Shop, waiting for all kinds of clients, the same as when he was bargaining.
The face is expressionless, and it highlights the seriousness and majesty of the look.
For other people's misunderstandings or planting, Lu Fusheng never chooses to defend, the person who planted the false accusation knows how innocent others are more than the framed person, so the explanation is not the greatest contempt, silence is.
But in the face of Bai Wuchang, who can slap himself at any time, if Lu Fusheng responds with silence, Bai Wuchang will definitely not hesitate to meet Lu Fusheng's expectations.
As for why he still opened his mouth to ask, it doesn't mean that Wang Xiaoer is cheeky, let alone undignified, this is because you haven't been a soldier, you haven't grown up in Bo'an City, and you don't know the pride in Bo'an people's bones. In his heart, the world is still beautiful and idealized. People are to help each other, if anyone is in trouble, as long as they speak, even if they are desperate, they have to help, this is the foundation of the pride of the Bo'an people, if there is no this, the people living in the city of Bo'an can only be called people, not Bo'an people. ”
Lu Fusheng said passionately and generously, ruling by inaction, not closing the door at night, and not leaving the road behind. This is the utopian society written by the dreamers of the previous life, and it is also the prosperous era that Anyang once achieved.
Why are the inhabitants of a country getting smarter and more scheming? In addition to the influence of external factors, only the speculators tasted the sweetness, and then the desire was constantly driven to get a bigger candy to satisfy the increasing desire.
"Yes, the Bo'an people have the pride of the Bo'an people, but how many real Bo'an people are left? ”
Lu Fusheng glanced at Hei Wuchang, because he didn't expect this kind of exclamation to come out of Hei Wuchang's mouth.
The three of them walked forward again, and the pedestrians around them were like ashes at dusk and night, not on the riverside, sad and tired.
The sun was setting, colliding with the mountains in the distance outside the city, and the blood-colored sunset, full of fire and scorched smell, stretched endlessly across the plains and desolate land, and the two halves of the blood-red moon hugged each other, it was the lonely throne.
Hope is engraved by the refugees on the road on a wooden bowl of begging life, which once held the blood-red sunset and all the life of the past.
In these chaotic days, everything is changing, and everyone is worried and unwilling to imagine how to survive in the next few days.
In the sound of percussion, the three of them finally arrived at Dali Temple, and the headquarters of the guard yamen established under the establishment of Dali Temple was stationed in it.
The flanker was proposed by Lu Fusheng to gather all the cultivators together, and exist as a squad with absolute combat superiority, which is much higher than the combat power of the group of ordinary soldiers led by the prince guard, in addition to being able to justifiably make the disciples recruited by the King of Wei have a reasonable and legal existence, this squad can also play a different role from all the armed forces in the city when necessary.
Most of the cultivators recruited by King Wei were generals in the military, and under the domestic military system in Anyang, only by becoming a cultivator could they have the qualifications to be generals, and with the promotion of cultivation, the official position on the battlefield would also increase accordingly. And those soldiers who have no cultivation potential want to get ahead, they can only choose to become a military advisor, otherwise they can only be a soldier for the rest of their lives.
The soldiers recruited in the flank guard were strictly selected by the King of Wei, and each of them was a veteran who came down from the real battlefield, either because there was no relationship in the army, the promotion was too slow, and he could not get the training of military resources, or because he was suppressed by his superiors in the army, and he was not used to the honest people who grabbed merit and risked merit in the army.
They were afraid that they had passed the peak of their cultivation, and chose to throw themselves at the King of Wei, seeking a shortcut to the sky. Wang Xing was one of them that day.
There is still some distance from Dali Temple, and you can see that outside the gate of Dali Temple, there is an official dressed in a brocade flying fish suit, waiting anxiously, and his calloused palm is tightly holding the knife handle.
The three of them got closer and closer, and the official recognized the black and white impermanence among the three at a glance, because it was usually these two people who replaced the king of Wei to convey orders and tiger talismans.
The official hurriedly stepped forward, Xu was waiting for too long, his face was sweating a lot, he took off the hat on his head, wiped his sweat and said, "Two adults, I see that the sun is about to set." The curfew is about to begin, we haven't even received a single order, Bo'an City will inevitably be in chaos tonight, our flanks are all iron-clad men, and we will never watch the people being bullied. But now, we don't even have the slightest preparation. ”
The official's name is Qi Bing, his father is a soldier of Anyang State, Qi Bing is to take over his father's position, in the most dangerous area of Longbei, resist the military pressure of the enemy, because of the difficult environment, far away from home. His mother worked hard and spent money to buy the relationship of the Wei Wangfu before transferring Qi Bing back to Bo'an City to take up a post.
After the conversation with Lu Fusheng in the carriage yesterday, Bai Wuchang's impression of Lu Fusheng has changed, but he still said in a weird manner: "Looking for Lao Shizi in a hurry, isn't this inviting your Lord Wei Shuo back, as for any tasks tonight, I have to listen to others." ”
Hei Wuchang hurriedly took out half of the tiger talisman from his arms, and said to Lu Fusheng: "Dao Chief, no, from now on, it's time to change your name to Lord Wei Rate, this is the half of the tiger talisman in the hands of King Wei, and the half of it in your hand is together, and tonight's flankers will all obey your orders." ”
After receiving half of the tiger talisman, Lu Fusheng saluted and thanked him. He also took out half of the tiger talisman from his arms and put it together completely. Asked Qi Bing, "What's your name?"
"Qi Bing. ”
Lu Fusheng said handsomely: "From now on, you will be the deputy guard of the flanker, follow me and listen to orders at any time." ”
Thinking that he can join forces and care for the people, it doesn't matter if he is a good soldier for the time being, but he must be a good person. In addition, he has just joined the flanker, and he is not familiar with the place, and if he parachutes a commander over, it is easy to be squeezed out, so it is better to win over one person first, good people are generally not bad, and with the support of the masses, it will be easier for the flanker who is in power.
Qi Bing clasped his hands into fists and saluted: "Lord Xie Wei." ”
Then Qi Bing muttered in a low voice: "But I was originally the deputy guard in charge of the guard." That doesn't seem to have changed. ”
Speaking of Lu Fusheng's arrival, the Qi soldiers led by the guards on behalf of him were demoted. This made Lu Fusheng suddenly embarrassed.
Bai Wuchang was laughing very happily on the side, seeing Lu Fusheng embarrassed, Bai Wuchang was inexplicably very happy in his heart.
Hei Wuchang touched Bai Wuchang with his elbow and reminded Bai Wuchang not to lose his manners when he was outside. He also said to Lu Fusheng: "Since you have been led to recognize the door, I believe that Lord Wei Shu will be able to handle the matter well, and at this moment, the King of Wei has returned to the house, and my brothers should go back to protect the King of Wei earlier." I won't delay here anymore. ”
"I'm tired. ”
After the black and white impermanence left, Qi Bing, who was still groveling, immediately changed his face, turned around and entered the Dali Temple without knowing his head, and no longer cared about Lu Fusheng at all.
Lu Fusheng smiled wickedly at the corner of his mouth and said, "Interesting." ”
Qi Bing's reaction was not to see people serve dishes, in the army, in addition to royal power, only strength is the only criterion for status. The deputy guard led the Qi soldiers to cultivate to the Dao realm, and he was also the only middle-level cultivator in the entire flank guard.
Qi Bing could clearly feel that Lu Fusheng only had the cultivation of the Imperial Spirit Realm, and he was quite a Buddha, and the aura of this attribute was not suitable in the decisive army.
Only the cultivation of the two adults of black and white impermanence who know the fate realm, coupled with the gloomy aura, is the elite needed in the army, and it is also the reason why Qi Bing has always admired the two adults, so when he sees the two adults, he will have a correct attitude and be respectful.
Being a guard is also justified, Qi Bing thought that even if he was an airborne commander, there would be a cultivator from the mid-level peak who knew the fate realm, but he never thought that there would only be a cultivator from the Imperial Spirit Realm. Presumably which family is it, the noble sons who are forced in, this group of noble sons has a little talent for cultivation, so they want to gild everywhere, and want to have a bright future in the army in the future.
Brother Gongzi who grew up with a golden key like this, Qi Bing has seen a lot, there is a brother Gongzi on the Longbei Front, in such a difficult environment, he can still take a bath every night and eat meat, behind which the military logistics that need to spend countless national resources to ensure are eaten away by this group of national moths who only know how to covet pleasure and power.
When the supreme commander of Longbei saw this, he bent over and bent his back, surrounding Gongzi and brother to flatter. Those commanders are only for the resources of the family behind this son-in-law, and if they only mention their names in front of their superiors, the commanders will feel that these flatteries are worth it.
And this is also the person Qi Bing looks down on the most, if not, he will not choose to return to Bo'an City to join the King of Wei, because Qi Bing is ambitious, and it can be seen that the prosperous era of Anyang has sunset, and the current king is sick for a long time, and the people are old and confused, this Anyang needs a new king, and the King of Wei is the hope of Qi Bing, the hope of being able to regain the most glorious Anyang prosperity.
