Chapter 27: Talking
A man had no wounds on his body, but he was not breathing, he had no injuries on his body, but he lost his life.
Meng Zhao's body lay quietly in the grass in the back garden, his armor was neatly dressed, and there was no sign of a fight on his body, but he was dead.
Li Shimin sighed slightly, stroked his forehead, and sighed: "My Datang has lost another pillar!" ”
The people all around were lamenting that General Meng Zhao had died like this.
After thinking about it carefully, everyone couldn't help but gasp, General Meng Zhao is the number one master in the world, and he can finish it quietly and without a trace, and the person who made the move is probably ......
The rest of the matter, they dare not think about, because it is already a legend.
Qiao Bai looked at this scene, although he was not afraid, he also felt a chill in his back.
After killing Wang Tie and Wang Dao, his level reached level 30, and his strength increased again, but in the face of this situation, he still felt powerless.
A voice from the system suddenly came from his head, "It's just a soul dementoring method, I didn't expect that someone would use this trick now." ”
"Soul Dementorship? It sounds like a skill in Pansidong, could it be that they did it? Qiao Bai asked in his mind.
"The Soul Dementor Dafa was created by the ancestor of Pansi Cave, Pansi Daxian, not even Bai Jingjing, who can perform it in the current Pansi Cave?" There was disdain in the system's tone.
"Who do you think would have done it?" Qiao Bai asked.
"Hell knows." System Channel.
Li Shimin then ordered someone to clean up Meng Zhao's body, and then saw a soldier with blood in armor come and kneel down on one knee, clasp his fists and say: "Your Majesty, the turmoil in Chang'an City has subsided. ”
Li Shimin instructed: "Let the hundred officials enter the court, and I will share the reward." ”
In the Jinluan Palace, Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair, and at this time, the broken things were repaired, and hundreds of officials stood on the court.
"Today's bandits are in turmoil, thanks to the efforts of the Qing family to kill the enemy, to protect my Tang Society." Li Shimin said with a smile.
"Among them, this little hero of why bother is the bravest, trying to protect my safety, and I named him a guard with a knife in front of the palace." Li Shimin waved his hand and immediately made Qiao Bai a member of his personal guard.
With Qiao Bai's protection, Li Shimin can rest assured.
Hundreds of officials have discussed, they have all seen the strength of Wang Tie and Wang Dao, it is the existence of many masters outside the palace with one sword, but they didn't expect to be solved by this new guard with a knife in front of the emperor.
The officials had different expressions, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
As for Wang Zhutou and Zhang Gui, even if they led the soldiers and horses to calm the chaos in the city, although they were not promoted, they also made a fortune, and Li Shimin gave each of them a lot of silver.
After retiring from the court, Qiao Bai went to a mansion outside the palace under the guidance of the eunuch, which was the mansion that Li Shimin gave to Qiao Bai.
Although Qiao Bai was a guard with a knife before being crowned, he had already agreed with Li Shimin that he would definitely protect his safety, but he would have his own freedom.
Li Shimin knew that he couldn't ask for too much, so he immediately allowed it.
gave Qiao Bai the mansion outside the palace, and Li Shimin also hoped that Qiao Bai could get closer to him.
There are a lot of people in the house, and Li Shimin has also rewarded many palace maids, in short, everything in this house revolves around Qiao Bai.
In the evening, people began to come to visit.
In the house, there was Zhao Gonggong, the deputy chief eunuch sent by Li Shimin, as a housekeeper to take care of everything, and at this moment, Zhao Gonggong's voice was sharp: "There is Lord Li, the secretary of the military department!" ”
Master Li, the secretary of the military department, is about 50 years old, his face is serious, and the murderous aura on his body makes people dare not look directly, and he looks like a battle-hardened person.
At this moment, he was sitting in the lobby waiting for Qiao Bai.
Lord Li understands the emperor's intentions, and for a strong man like Qiao Bai, Datang hopes that he can shoulder more responsibilities.
It didn't take long for Qiao Bai to come to the lobby and sit down at the top of the house.
"Now that the war in the north is tight, and the imperial court is at the time of employing people, the old man knows that the lovesick heroes and martial arts are world-famous, so he wants to ......"
At this time, Qiao Bai suddenly interrupted him. "Don't call me lovesick hero, just call me Qiao Bai."
At this time, Qiao Bai had already asked people to spend 1 million taels of silver from the god of the town tower at the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to buy an anonymous jade pendant and carry it around his waist, except for distinguishing his breath, no one could know what his name was.
Qiao Bai was tired of letting people shout lovesick heroes all day long, so he simply let them call their real names.
"That Qiao Bai hero, now the war in the north of Datang is tight, and the manpower is gradually insufficient, the most important thing is that the number of high-level powerhouses in our Datang is quite small, so we need a strong person to command the whole army."
Lord Li began to talk at this moment, he was very puzzled at first, judging from his breath, Qiao Bai seemed to be a person of about level 30, but since he could kill Wang Tie and Wang Dao, two genuine level 60 powerhouses, then the combat effectiveness must be extraordinary.
Master Li was depressed in his heart, except for him who reached level 60, no one in the entire military department could break through to level 60, and all the generals under him were only in their early 50s, which was completely different from himself.
Before, when Wang Tie and Wang Dao killed the two of them in the Jinluan Palace, he was also struggling to escort them, who knew that when he arrived at the Jinluan Palace, Qiao Bai had already killed the two.
If it were a story of a level 30 person killing two level 60 people, he would definitely think it was ridiculous, but this impossible thing really happened in front of him.
Master Li only thought that Qiao Bai had some peerless secret treasure or secret weapon, and used the power of the treasure to kill Wang Tiewang's sword, but he never thought that Qiao Bai would have a non-level weapon.
Qiao Bai knocked on the table and said, "Am I no one in Datang?" ”
"I have a million heroes in the Tang Dynasty and a thousand good generals, but ......" At this point, Master Li suddenly paused.
Qiao Bai immediately understood, and immediately asked Gonggong Zhao beside him to take away all the idle people.
"Come in and talk about it." Qiao Bai got up and took Master Li to the side hall behind the lobby.
There was no eavesdropping here, and it was a great place for secret conversations.
Lord Li's serious face suddenly surged with anger at this moment, and he said, "Although my Tang soldiers fought bloodily, the battle ahead is still tense. ”
"Do you know what our Datang is facing in the north?" Master Li suddenly lowered his voice.
"Aren't there only nomadic tribes in the north?" Qiao Bai asked.
Master Li nodded first, then shook his head, and said, "You are only half right, although the enemies we face in the north are those nomads, they are ......."
"But what?" Qiao Bai asked.
Master Li paused, then suddenly raised his voice and said, "They are not ordinary people, but living dead people possessed by thousands of demons!" ”
"What?!" Qiao Bai was taken aback.
