Chapter Seventy-Two: The Sword Pavilion Defenders Defend the City
The big fat firehead soldier was also unlucky, obviously he was a contemplative monk, and he was still a junior monk, but he was stunned to be repaired by a monk at the level of Xiangyun Master.
There are peerless soldiers who are not used, but are just left idle in the bucket of pig drainage.
The first thing he said when he woke up again was, "Where is this?!" I was beaten by four people just now, and now I can't distinguish between east and west, north and south, and I can't distract myself from where I am.
"I'm the person you're looking for, General Tang!" Since Yang Li had already learned the true identity of the other party, he blurted out his identity without concealment. He wanted to end the contact with the Tang General as soon as possible, and then get the five-colored soil, and finally put the mysterious seed in it for cultivation, and there must be a mysterious creation beckoning to him not far away.
"You are the general sent by His Majesty the Emperor?!" the big fat man Huotou Jun, who had finally come to his senses, turned over and sat up, and asked with disbelief in his eyes. Although he learned from the connector sent by the emperor that the person who would lead him in the future was a cultivator with advanced cultivation, the firehead soldier always thought that it was because of the old man.
You must know that he is nearly 40 years old, and his cultivation is still at the initial stage of contemplation, and Yang Li in front of him does not look very old, but he is in his early 20s, and he has fine skin and tender meat, and he is handsome and handsome, which is very different from the image of a senior cultivator in his mind. He also thought that the person sent by the emperor was very old, with at least high-level cultivation above the concentration level, with a beard on his face, majestic and magnificent, and heroic and mighty.
But now that His Majesty the Emperor actually sent a white-faced man, it was difficult for him to accept it in his heart, so he hesitated to ask rhetorically.
"What? Am I not like it?" Hearing the other party call himself a general, if Yang Lina is not beautiful in his heart, it is not in line with the facts, the biggest official he has ever seen is just the patriarch, and he feels that the general is far away from him, if this is a general, he doesn't know what level it is.
It's just that compared with the ordinary people, it may be a person in the same place, and it is not an exaggeration to describe the difference between the original him and the current one.
"Like!" Where did the big fat man dare not say a word, he immediately put on a smiling face: "Look at me, how can you be like, you are clearly a general." The big fat man hurriedly slapped himself in the face, thinking to himself how he could look like this broken mouth?
But his face was not tight, and the fat on his face was trembling and trembling by him, which really made Yang Li laugh, the big fat man was full of fat, and there was really something pleasing about it.
"Outside the gate, there was another brother of mine, who was detained by the officer on duty. Is there any way you can free him?!" Yang Li couldn't help but laugh out loud, and threw out the situation of a knife.
"Let me take a look, if something doesn't get a problem, I promise I can bring him back. ”
The big fat man groaned slightly, decisively untied the apron tied to his body, threw it on the table, and hurried towards the gate as he walked, turning back and adding a question as he walked:
"General, what's your brother's name?!What does he look like?"
Yang Li replied: "His name is Yidao, and his full name is Shanyidao." Then he had his general physical characteristics, and the big fat man said from afar: "I know! It turns out that he is also a pig killer, and his skills are so good, just one knife is enough!" Yang Li smiled unconsciously when he heard this, as long as it wasn't Jiang Yidaocheng's deletion of pigs, it was a thing that specialized in castrating boars, and it was not very elegant to come out.
Yang Li stayed alone like this, the big fat man fried the wood, he didn't want to follow the firehead soldiers to Yuanmen to pick up people, he was afraid that following the firehead soldiers would increase the trouble, because the officers and soldiers guarding the camp would definitely interrogate, if the answer was not improper, it would cause unnecessary trouble;
Second, the big fat man has already made a package ticket, presumably he must have a way to smoothly lure a knife back, after all, the big fat man is a "spy" who goes deep into the enemy camp, and he must have his own set of actions, so Yang Li is not worried here.
He was a little bored while waiting for the two followers to return, so he stomped to the barrel in three or two steps, trying to find the peerless warrior from inside, after all, he was now condensing the fourth phantom and needed all the information related to the master smith.
Yang Li had been enduring the strange smell coming from the barrel, so he didn't have a good impression of this item, so he shook the sleeves of his robe, and easily threw those miscellaneous pieces into the air, and then revealed an object in the shape of a scabbard from inside, Yang Li grabbed the void with his right hand, and easily took the object out of the barrel.
Then there was a "pop" sound, and the pigs who had lost the support of Yang Liyuan's strength returned to the barrel with all of a sudden.
The barrel was still placed in place, but the peerless soldier was picked up by Yang Li
What you can feel strange is that this peerless soldier is not contaminated with half a trace, the breath of pig entering the water, since the day of its reappearance, it still reveals a faint killing aura, and Yang Li can also feel the breath in it.
Although the pig can hide its killing aura, it can't fundamentally erase the natural aura that emanates from its body.
Yang Li carefully measured the scabbard of the treasure knife in his hand. This scabbard is no different from the scabbard that ordinary soldiers hang from their waists, it is a thick back and a majestic posture. The blade of the knife is like a graceful arc, the two ends are concave in the middle, and the round handle is engraved with the appearance of devouring the beast, and it is the blade that is held on the giant mouth of the monster.
Out of the blacksmith's habit, Yang Li held the blade of the knife with his left hand, while his right hand stretched out a finger, gently supporting the junction between the handle and the blade, and then withdrew his left hand.
Everything was as he had imagined beforehand, this big guy actually maintained a dynamic balance under the support of his fingers, although there were occasional fluctuations, but this treasure knife showed the quality of a soldier in Yang Li's hands.
Generally shoddy weapons, even weapons made of fine iron, may be unbalanced in the balance of the two parts, and if you hold your finger in the middle, it will either slip off the right side because the handle is heavy, or it will slip off the left side because the blade is heavy. And the effect that Yang Lituo lifted shows that this blade is balanced left and right!
"Good knife!" Yang Li can not only feel the endless killing power from it, but also the feeling after getting started is very extreme, as if as long as you hold it in your hand, it will become a certain part of your body, so he praised it from the bottom of his heart, and felt worthy of it
"Hehe, of course it's a good knife. The first time my subordinates meet the general, there is nothing to worship, if the general likes this weapon, then I will give it to you!"
Behind Yang Li came the voice of the big fat firehead soldier, he had already come to the kitchen with a knife, and watched the general playing with the peerless treasures he hid in the barrel, and he had already seen the general's sincere admiration for this soldier.
As a warrior, he can understand that the general will definitely like this treasure sword, so even if there are thousands of reluctances in his heart, he can only boldly say the above words.
He knew that Yang Li would be his immediate boss in the future, and in the military camp, any subordinate would do everything possible to slap his boss, for the sake of their own future, some of them could even send their wives and concubines to make their bosses happy. The big fat man has been in the military camp for a long time, of course, it is impossible to stay out of the matter, but it is just a war knife, although it is something handed down from his ancestors, but what is it in front of his own future? !
Of course, Yang Li also knew this, and he smiled faintly. Suddenly, his face sank, and he was very serious: "How can a gentleman win people's love, you put it away, if necessary, the master will come from the one who can create one hundred and ten such weapons." The big fat man was surprised when he heard this, Mo Baiten, he also cherished it beyond his hand. Of course he didn't believe it, he was bragging to be a general.
A knife stood beside him, but he knew the strength of his master, so his eyes were full of stars. His name has changed since he followed his master, and although he is called "One Sword" all day long, he does not have a saber by his side. Now that he heard that Yang Li could forge such a divine weapon in the future, of course he couldn't ask for it.
"Everything is going well, did the officer on duty suspect us?!" Yang Li asked as he put aside the topic and looked into the eyes of the big fat man.
"No problem. I am General Lee's cook. As soon as I got off the knife, my brother was my cousin, and he came to visit me on purpose, so they let him go. "It's my cousin again, and there is still his cousin in the first layer of Yang Li's mending stone!
Seeing that Yang Li had no intention of accepting his soldiers, the big fat man had mixed feelings and worries, and felt that his boss was a little incomprehensible. "You can rest assured! It's not that I don't like weapons, but you're really a little bit like this, it's a little far from my requirements!" Yang Li had already seen the thoughts of the firehead soldiers, and said with relief. But the words hit the other party in another way, and it was the boss who also had unspeakable hardships!
Yang Li simply pulled out his own "mountain", this dagger was refined by Yang Li himself, it can break Yang Li's skin, and he has already dripped blood to recognize the master, he will not easily show off in front of people. But in front of him now are his two major followers, and they are also the brothers of life and death who will go to the battlefield in the future, and it is good to take out some guys to give them some confidence!
After the "mountain" was taken out by Yang Li and held in his hand, the eyes of the knife and the fat man were bright, and he felt that a lightning flash fell in front of him, and the light and shadow like a match shrouded the whole body of the dagger, so that none of the three people present except Yang Li could see what the guy in front of him was.
"Report, General Li urgently ordered: The whole army is ready to be armed, and the soldiers who have not had time to eat should be solved on the way to the march! Those who listen to the order must not make mistakes!" A herald roared on a high slope not far away, and the voice was so loud that it was estimated that his eardrums could not bear it, right? After the herald left, Yang Li asked the big fat man, what was going on? When he entered the barracks just now, Yang Li just felt that the training here was very strict, but he didn't expect that he hadn't sat down yet, and he was about to pull out, so he also looked at the big fat man inquiringly, and then asked.
Yidao also turned to face the big fat man at this time, and his eyes were full of inquiring eyes.
"I also know a little bit about this," the big fat man is General Li's special cook, of course, he may have heard some military aircraft information when he was finishing the materials, so he said:
"Yesterday, that is, the day after receiving His Majesty's message, I heard that these two and three formations are also going to the front line, probably because there is a tight situation over there, and according to the Tang Dynasty, the army has approached on all fronts. But if I don't even eat like this and start pulling out immediately, I won't know what's going on. ”
"Oh!" a knife thoughtfully lifted his cheeks, as far as he knew, in the past month, the armies of Great Wei and Datang have been facing each other on the front line, and there has been no major conflict, how can there be such a violent conflict all of a sudden, it is really unpredictable!
"Fat Zhu is here," a young Rao's voice suddenly sounded from outside, "The general asked me to pass the word, you hurry up and pack the fried vegetables, and the general will eat them on the way." As soon as Rao's words fell, his front foot had already stepped into the kitchen. The person who came was burly, with big shoulders and a round waist, and when Zhu Fatzi heard the words and looked back, he realized that it was General Li's personal guard who came in.
After the guards came in, they patted each other very familiarly, and then took a piece of the dishes that had been placed on the table to taste, and Quan Zuo conducted a safety check for the meals that the general was going to eat.
Then the big man clapped his hands, turned around and walked away with a satisfied face, he just went out with his front foot, and then his words came: "What the general explained, don't forget Zhu Fatty." Of course, the big fat man only nodded his head, and his head nodded like a chicken pecking rice.
What made the big fat man very strange was that Yang Lihe, who was clearly talking to himself just now, didn't know where to hide at this time, it was the dragon who saw the head and the tail. He turned around, but he didn't find the figure of the general in this narrow space.
He was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on his big head, and the beans were big, and they were about to fall.
Yang Li felt that the guards had already left, so he slowly pulled a knife and came out of the first layer of the Mending Stone Pagoda. Then he cleared his throat, and then said quietly:
"Fatty, you don't have to look for it, I'm here with a knife. When the big fat man heard this sentence coming from his side, he quickly turned back to his fat body, turned his fat face towards Yang Li, and then said in surprise: "General, where did you go just now?"
"Of course I'm hiding, is it possible that General Li still knows about my existence?!"
"That's not what the subordinates meant, don't get me wrong. "Of course I won't misunderstand you," Yang Li cocked Erlang's legs, sat on the stool and smiled, he thought to himself, I already know your true identity and your true thoughts by searching your Divine Soul Consciousness, how could I doubt you?
As a spy, the big fat man often has to be a man on both sides, so he is most afraid that His Majesty will suspect him, so the general's words just now really scared him, you must know that his family is still in the capital, if he reports it, I am afraid that the lives of his family will be worried, so he was really scared just now,
"You are all right, hurry up and find some acquaintances to inquire about the situation, and if possible, they can go to the front line with you. The big fat man was relieved when he heard this, and hurriedly ran all the way to the ground with a lump of meat and went to the familiar place to inquire about the situation.
After he left, he quickly closed the door, and then turned around and asked Yang Li: "Does the master know the details of this rao?!" Yang Li knew that they were dancing in shackles and licking blood on the tip of the knife, and I also knew if it would be appropriate for a knife to care about this matter?
"This is natural! I already know his details through the means of soul searching, so you can rest assured!" Yidao felt that the afterlife master in front of him could already use the means of soul searching, then his cultivation should be at least above the high level of concentrating, so he put his heart down, and immediately grabbed a few mouthfuls of food on the table and put it in his mouth.
This was not because he was greedy, but because he was concerned about the imminent rapid march, and people of unknown origin like them might not be able to get a meal, so they should put on the mat first, so as to maintain sufficient physical strength to do things. But before he could swallow a mouthful of food, Yang Li's words came again, this time more lightly, but he said softly:
"It turns out that this big fat man's surname is Zhu, not Tang!"
I'll let me go, you still tell me to rest assured, it turns out that you don't even know what his surname is?!This makes me feel at ease, this is about the life of the whole family, a knife thinking about this, a mouthful of food in his mouth was choked in his throat, and he couldn't vomit and couldn't vomit for a while, his face was red, he squatted on the ground and couldn't stop vomiting, but he just retched, he couldn't vomit anything, just kept coughing!
"Report to the general," the big fat man turned around quickly like a whirlwind at this time, he had already found out the news, and he was about to hurry back to pack up the food, so he came back very quickly, and only listened to him:
"What's wrong with you!" At a glance, the big fat man Zhu saw the knife squatting on the ground coughing incessantly, and unconsciously asked, Isn't this just going out for a while? How can the person who came with the general be like stealing someone else's food, but being bumped into by the master when he came back, a mouthful of food stuck in his throat, wanting to swallow it, but afraid of being discovered by the master.
Yang Li felt that there was no need to explain more, and it was still very important to understand the current situation, so he waved his hand and said:
"You don't have to worry about him, just give him a sip of water to drink after a while. Look, what news have you heard?!" The big fat man looked at the knife suspiciously, and then hurriedly packed all the food into a food box, while answering the general's question:
"They saw wolf smoke billowing from the direction of the Sword Pavilion today, and there was more than one stream. What is this?" At this point, Zhu Da Fat Man rolled his eyes and looked at the knife.
A knife is straight in his heart, I'm afraid it's not good to steal other people's food, but now he sees the little bit in his heart...... So he involuntarily lowered his head and didn't speak, and even the sound of coughing was a lot, and he was used to chatting with the young owner, and his face was a little feverish at this time.
"You don't have to worry about him. Search to see where the Sword Pavilion is?Why are the soldiers so nervous?!" The fat man's eyes were still staring at a knife, but his mouth was not idle, he was like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, one by one:
"The Sword Pavilion is only 300 miles away from the capital, if you can take it there, so many capitals will be presented in front of people. To use an inappropriate analogy, the Sword Pavilion is like the clothes of the capital, if it is breached, the capital will be naked, and you can imagine it below. ”
Yang Li was dumbfounded by his analogy, but the truth was very obvious. Then the fat man continued: "And the Sword Pavilion should be thousands of miles away from the front line of the battle between the two armies, but I don't want to be parachuted by the enemy army without knowing what method was used to come to the front of the city. ”
"I see. Then the direction we are going to now should be the Sword Pavilion?!" The big fat man nodded heavily, with a worried look on his face, although he was a "spy" sent here by His Majesty the Emperor, but once the Sword Pavilion was lost, it would mean that the infighting between the prince and His Majesty would become meaningless.
Yang Li lowered his head and muttered for a while, and then commanded at the big fat man:
"Do you want to make a contribution in front of General Li?!" Zhu Da Fat didn't know what to do, so he was stunned.
However, thinking that although the person in front of him was young, he was sent by His Majesty the Emperor, so he could not smell of spying, so after a while, he decisively said: "Yes, nothing else, but think about the presence of my family in the Windy Capital, and I have the obligation to protect them." ”
"Okay! Since you have such determination and awareness, then I will let you go to General Li to ask for help, so you can go to the Sword Pavilion immediately, and then help the defenders of the Sword Pavilion to defend the city there, as long as you don't lose the city before the army arrives, wouldn't it be a great achievement!"
The fat man thought that the general had to be light, how could I be able to hold there if I went alone? So with some hesitation, Yang Li continued to cheer up: "You can go, everything in the back is up to me!"
A knife squatted on the ground, and the sound of coughing gradually became clearer, and seeing the fat man standing still on the spot, he also urged: "The matter is urgent, the general tells you to go, you can go!" The fat man then set off and walked towards General Li's meeting hall.
The knife then let out a long breath, and the feeling of embarrassment just now had vanished.
Zhu Da Fat ran almost all the way to the conference hall, and saw a square-faced man sitting behind the desk, secretly in a daze. He was dressed in shiny armor and placed on the left side of the dark system, and this person was General Li, the chief officer of the three formations.
"General," although Zhu Da Fat was the cook next to General Li, because the status of the firehead soldiers in the army was not high, so if he wanted to go to the council hall to talk, he still had to ask General Li to nod, so he stood outside the council hall, neither advancing nor retreating, knowing that General Li might be worried about how to quickly arrive at the Sword Pavilion, so he was a little hesitant.
