Chapter 221: The Right to Inherit War Exploits
Jiang Hongxi poured a cup of tea for Lin Mo and Mu Yuzhu, and said casually: "Why, I am still stubborn about your grandfather, if you have something to say, don't act like a woman." ”
Lin Mo took the cup with the tea, and after a long time of brewing, he had the courage to say it. "Grandpa, have there ever been any people in our family who have made outstanding military achievements, I want to be the lord of the city. ”
Jiang Hongxi smiled and said earnestly: "The city lord is not as simple as you think, the Jiang family has been the title of the martial king since the establishment of the Great Xia Dynasty, and it has not been changed until now, as for the military exploits, he can be regarded as the founding father, but he still failed to become the city lord." ”
Lin Mo was stunned, if he couldn't even be the founding father of the city, then wouldn't the people of the legion they founded have no hope.
"Actually, whether you can be the city lord or not depends on the words of King Xia, as long as you get his consent, you can still be the city lord, as for us veterans, it would be good to be able to keep our position, how dare you dream of the position of the city lord. ”
"Then how can I get King Xia to grant my request?"
For the position of city lord, Lin Mo is bound to win, this is the only opportunity for the Lin family to rise in the human world, and he can't easily miss it.
Jiang Hongxi thought for a moment and said, "I remember that King Xia has a daughter who was sent to the Wuji Sect when she was very young, as long as you can make her open to King Xia, the position of the city lord will most likely be completed." ”
Lin Mo blinked his eyes and looked at Mu Yuzhu, with a puzzled expression, it wouldn't be so coincidental.
"Ahem, grandpa, let's be honest, Princess Yaya has already gone back to Yanjing with my brother to prepare for marriage. Lin Mo said.
"Yanjing, isn't that the fiefdom of the King of Beiwu, could it be that you know the King of Beiwu?" Jiang Hongxi said in surprise.
Lin Mo scratched his head and told the ins and outs of the matter, and Jiang Hongxi took a long breath.
"It's worthy of being my grandson, most of the things of this city lord are stable, anyway, your cousin will inherit the title of the Jiang family in the future, and this battle exploit is also used as an ornament, it is better to hand it over to you, and it can be regarded as making the best use of it, tomorrow I will go to the imperial capital of the royal city with you to prove the war exploits for you." ”
"Thank you grandpa for making it happen!"
Lin Mo's heart was very excited, he didn't expect that Jiang Hongxi, who he hadn't seen for more than ten years, still loved him so much, and gave away all the most precious military exploits, if the people of the Jiang family knew about it, they would not have to fall out with him.
"Hey, silly boy, what's this, I sent people to Qingyun City to look for you, but the people there said that you were dead, and then there was no news, I could only go to the frontier, I didn't expect that after a few decades, the grandfather and grandson would be able to see each other again, which is really gratifying." Jiang Hongxi said.
Lin Mo fell into deep thought, when he was in the Zhao family, he had never heard anyone say that the Jiang family had sent someone to look for him, but said that someone came to seek revenge and asked him to hide, don't leak the news, so he has been staying in Qingyun City and has not gone far away.
Now hearing Jiang Hongxi say this, Lin Mo suddenly remembered that he was tied up in the backyard by the Zhao family, and he didn't even care about his emotions for more than ten years for the sake of that piece of heart-controlling jade.
Lin Mo's right hand was placed on his heart, and he said self-deprecatingly in his heart: "It turns out that my grandfather has sent someone to find me a long time ago, but I have misunderstood him all these years, Zhao Qingshan, Zhao Qingshan, I didn't expect your scheming to be so deep......"
Jiang Hongxi looked at Lin Mo and didn't speak, just put his right hand on his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "Mo'er, what's wrong with you?"
Lin Mo came back to his senses from thousands of thoughts and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I'm fine, what about grandma?"
"Oh, your grandmother and they, go back to the countryside to visit relatives, you also know that it will be the New Year in three days, and it is inevitable to visit relatives and friends. Jiang Hongxi said.
Lin Mo nodded, and talked to Jiang Hongxi about the past few years, Mu Yuzhu listened to it with relish on the side, and made tea for his grandfather and grandson from time to time.
"Girl, if Mo'er dares to bully you in the future, tell your grandfather, and your grandfather will beat him for you!"
"Grandpa, look at what you said, it's too late for me to hurt her, how can I bully her. ”
Jiang Hongxi looked at Lin Mo and Mu Yuzhu's loving appearance, and couldn't help but think of himself back then.
"General, general, no, young master, they are in danger, and it is said that they were arrested by a group of robbers of unknown origin. ”
Jiang Hongxi, who was talking happily with Lin Mo, was furious on the spot when he heard this.
"Damn, which bastard who doesn't have long eyes dares to attack the Jiang family, immediately gather all the guards of the Jiang Mansion and follow me to save people. ”
"Grandpa, I'll go with you. ”
Jiang Hongxi nodded, and rushed to the place where the incident occurred, on the outskirts of Youliang, with hundreds of guards from the Soul Martial Realm.
"General, this is it. ”
Looking at the messy open space in front of him, Jiang Hongxi clenched his fists angrily.
"Zhang Kang, Lao Tzu won't let you go!"
Under the guidance of the captain of the guards, Jiang Hongxi and Lin Mo came to a tower village on the outskirts of Youliang, with a plaque written on it, surrounded by high walls made of stone barriers, giving people a feeling of indestructibility, which is not weaker than the hardness of the city wall on the battlefield at all.
Lin Mo felt a little strange, the other party was just an ordinary bandit, how could he build such a hard wall.
"Li Sheng, go up and call the formation, and let Zhang Kang come out to see me. ”
"Yes, General. ”
Li Sheng took a step forward and shouted loudly: "King Jiang Wu is here, Zhang Kang is not here to greet him!"
The person standing on the high wall immediately ran down, and it didn't take long to see the gate of Kang Ta Zhai slowly open, and a middle-aged man walked out of it, followed by more than a dozen old men from the Huangwu Realm.
"Zhang Kang, what do you mean by this, our Jiang family and you have always been well water does not interfere with river water, why do you want to arrest my family!" Jiang Hongxi shouted. ”
Zhang Kang chuckled lightly and said lightly: "Who made the eldest young master of your family speak disrespectfully, since you don't care about Lao Tzu, I can only discipline and discipline these descendants for King Jiang Wu." ”
Jiang Hongxi clenched his fists and took a deep breath, under the threat of his family, he still chose to suppress his anger. "Say it, what do you want. ”
"Your Jiang family's right to inherit the merits of war!" Zhang Kang said.
Lin Mo was stunned, he wanted to target the inheritance of this battle merit, he didn't expect this guy in front of him to rob him, but because the Jiang family was in their hands, he didn't lose his temper because of this, but stood by and watched calmly.
"I will not transfer the inheritance of war exploits to you. ”
"Heh~ It seems that King Jiang Wu is not here to negotiate, then I have to waste time with you here, come here, bring out the old woman named Yu Shan. ”
I saw a dignified woman dressed gorgeously and with excellent appearance being brought out by two men.
Clear and bright pupils, curved willow eyebrows, long eyelashes trembling slightly, fair and flawless skin revealing a faint red powder, thin lips like rose petals delicate and dripping, if it weren't for the gray hair on the temples, it would be impossible to see that this is an elderly woman.
"King Jiang Wu, I'm asking you again, the Jiang family's inheritance of military exploits, to give it or not?" Zhang Kang showed a lewd smile, his eyes kept glancing at the woman's body.
Jiang Hongxi clenched his fists, the inheritance of the Jiang family's military exploits had been promised to be transferred to Lin Mo, and he absolutely could not be untrustworthy, but in the face of the threat of his family, he did not have the calmness he used to have.
"If you want the Jiang family's military exploits to inherit it, you can, I'll promise you if you let her go. Lin Mo said.
Zhang Kang was stunned, turned his head to look at Lin Mo, and said with a smile: "When will it be the turn of a descendant to make a decision on the affairs of the Jiang family." ”
"Mo'er, this ......"
Jiang Hongxi just wanted to explain something, but Lin Mo stepped forward and said to Zhang Kang: "The Jiang family's turn is not the turn of a descendant to make a decision, you don't have to care, as long as you let her go, anything can be discussed." ”
Zhang Kang glanced at Lin Mo, then at Jiang Hongxi, and said in disbelief: "King Jiang Wu, what you said in this later life can be counted?"
Although Jiang Hongxi didn't know what Lin Mo wanted to do, seeing that he was confident and calm, he chose to believe him without hesitation. "What he said can represent the Jiang family. ”
Yu Shan was very surprised, looking at the young student in his early twenties in front of her, she inexplicably felt familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.
"Master Zhangzhai, I'm standing in front of you to talk to you, I have to let someone show me the sincerity first, right?" Lin Mo said.
Zhang Kang hesitated, this young posterior was not as cowardly as the young man inside, but it made him feel an inexplicable sense of oppression.
"What do you say?" Zhang Kang turned his head to look at the several Emperor Martial Realms beside him, all of them were silent, which stumped him.
Lin Mo sneered in his heart, he had released a little bit of his own aura, and those demon beasts with lower bloodline grades couldn't stop this coercion, let alone a few human cultivators.
"Master Zhangzhai, you have lived for most of your life, is it possible that you are still afraid that I will eat you in an afterlife?" Lin Mo said.
Mu Yuzhu watched quietly from the side, thinking that this Lin Mo was too bad, and he actually released his own breath, forcing Zhang Kang and them to ride the tiger.
"Okay, but in exchange, you'll have to be a hostage. ”
"Okay, as you say. ”
Lin Mo agreed without hesitation, and walked forward, Zhang Kang subconsciously took a step back, those old men of the Emperor Martial Realm always felt that something was wrong, a group of cultivators of the Emperor Martial Realm were actually afraid of a descendant of the Martial Realm.
After Yu Shan was released, Lin Mo became a hostage in the hands of Zhang Kang and them, but on the whole, it was quite smooth, and the expected goal was achieved.
"Master, this kid, he ......"
As soon as Yu Shan wanted to ask, Jiang Hongxi immediately shook her head lightly and motioned for her not to speak.
"Zhang Kang, since you are so refreshing, then I will give you a big gift!"
Before Zhang Kang could react, Lin Mo's aura burst out instantly, directly shocking the more than ten people around him back several meters away, and those who cultivated to a lower level died on the spot.
"You!" Zhang Kang just wanted to speak, but Lin Mo appeared in front of him like a ghost, pinching his throat with one hand and lifting it up.
"I advise you not to mess around, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" Lin Mo's deep eyes exuded a fierce killing intent, and more than ten old men in the Emperor Martial Realm were suddenly at a loss, not knowing how to choose.
"You, who are you!" Zhang Kang struggled several times, but Lin Mo's strength was too strong to break free at all.
Lin Mo sneered and said lightly: "Who am I, you don't deserve to know, let the people inside, I can leave you all the corpses, don't make senseless resistance." ”
At this moment, there were three old men of the Emperor Martial Realm in the crowd who suddenly became angry and rushed towards Jiang Hongxi.
Mu Yuzhu stood still, his whole body's spiritual power surged out, and when they were about to get closer, the terrifying water elemental power quickly condensed into an ice wall in front of them, and froze their bodies.
"Elemental monk?"
The ten Emperor Martial Realms had solemn expressions on their faces, they never thought that Jiang Hongxi would have a master majoring in elemental power standing beside him, and he was still a woman who seemed to be weak.
"Ice Sword!"
Behind Mu Yuzhu, thousands of ice swords condensed by water elements suddenly appeared, flying towards the ice sculptures of the three Emperor Martial Realms, and the moment they touched it, they immediately exploded.
