Chapter Eighty-Seven: A Different God of War

A few days ago, when Hu Yi returned to Ganyang City, he finally brought back Zhou Rui's long-awaited military god Xiang Tao.

However, when Zhou Rui saw Xiang Tao, Xiang Tao's image was a little embarrassed, with gauze wrapped around his head and arms.

When Zhou Rui learned about Xiang Tao's injury, he couldn't help but wonder if Hu Yi had found the wrong person?

Xiang Tao was injured in the Heavenly Saint City, but not in the Colosseum, when he was fighting with the fierce beast.

It was because Xiang Tao seduced the concubine of a wealthy merchant in Tiansheng City, and was injured by the rich merchant with a green hat.

What made Zhou Rui even more speechless was that after Hu Yi's investigation, Xiang Tao was not like what was said in the newspaper in the previous life, in order to hone his martial arts in order to be promoted to grandmaster, so he became a gladiator in the Colosseum.

The truth is that Xiang Tao was forced to become a free gladiator in the Colosseum because he owed a gambling debt to a gambling house in Tiansheng City.

Become a freelance gladiator in the Colosseum and receive a handsome reward for every duel with the beast.

Since Xiang Tao was a high-ranking martial artist, the remuneration was almost the highest, and he should have paid off the gambling debts of the gambling hall soon.

But the problem is that Xiang Tao is too good at gambling, and as a result, the more he gambles, the more he loses, the more gambling debts he owes, and the gambling debts of the casino belong to the rolling interest.

If it weren't for the appearance of the fox, maybe Xiang Tao would have been difficult to pay off the gambling debts he owed in his life.

In order to bring Xiang Tao back to Ganyang City, Hu Yi helped Xiang Tao repay a total of 18,000 silver coins to the gambling hall with interest.

Zhou Rui felt that Xiang Tao left Tiansheng City in the previous life and went to Shuodong Town to join the Shuodong Army, probably in order to avoid debts and escape from Tiansheng City.

Although Zhou Rui was reluctant to admit that this lustful gambler was his idol, Zhou Rui had seen a photo of Xiang Tao in the newspaper in his last life.

At this time, although Xiang Tao was much younger, Zhou Rui could still recognize that he was Xiang Tao, the military god of the Han and Tang Empires.

Hearing Zhou Rui ask about Xiang Tao's injury, Hu Yi said with a wry smile: "Young General, Xiang Tao's injury should be fine."

In the past two days, he has been soaking in Wanhualou, and every night he will order a few dancing girls or singers, very chic. ”

Zhou Rui instantly had a feeling of hating iron but not steel.

Could this be the god of war that I have worshiped for more than ten years?

"Since the injury is healed, let him go to the crash course of the Army Academy to study hard, and linger in the land of fireworks all day long, and all kinds of talents must be abolished!"

The current Xiang Tao is not the military god in the previous life, because he has not been trained in the Shuodong Army for several years, Xiang Tao doesn't even know a lot of military common sense.

"Yes, Major General, I will send someone to send Xiang Tao to the Army Academy."

"In this way, let him stay with me as a bodyguard for a period of time, and I will arrange for him to go to the crash course of the Army Academy."

Hu Yi didn't know why his own young general would attach so much importance to that Xiang Tao, except for having the cultivation of a high-level martial artist, Hu Yi really didn't find that Xiang Tao had other advantages.

However, Hu Yi knew very well that since the major general had not explained some things to him, he should not inquire about them.

Then Zhou Rui said: "Let Xiang Tao come over to see me immediately." ”

When Zhou Rui saw Xiang Tao, who was a little pale and had a pair of dark circles under his eyes, standing in front of him, Zhou Rui almost couldn't help but kick it directly.

Zhou Rui took a deep breath before asking Xiang Tao with a pleasant face: "What are you still used to living in Ganyang City these days?" ”

Xiang Tao hurriedly said: "Get used to it! I'm so used to it!

I never dreamed of living like this.

Major General, in the future, my Xiang Tao's life will be yours, even if the Major General asks me Xiang Tao to go up the knife mountain and go down to the oil pot, I Xiang Tao will not frown! ”

Xiang Tao's words made Zhou Rui sound very familiar, and suddenly Zhou Rui remembered it, as if the pirate leader who was very good at sycophants had also said this.

"Do you know why I sent people all the way to take you to Ganyang City?"

Xiang Tao scratched his head, "I'm also quite puzzled, I don't know how such a good thing fell on my head?" ”

"The master who adopted you, the Taoist name is Deqing Sanren, right?"

When Xiang Tao heard this, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression, he had never mentioned his master's name to others, and how did Zhou Rui know that it was his master who adopted him?

"My master's Dao name is indeed a Deqing Sanren, does the young general know my master?"

"I'm your uncle!"

"Huh? Teacher? Major General, you're not kidding, are you? ”

"Do you think I'm joking with you?"

"But...... But it has been almost fifty years since my ancestor ascended to heaven, and my master has never told me that I still have an uncle. ”

"You don't have to doubt it, I don't need to lie to you, and you don't have anything to let me deceive!

At that time, my senior brother was a substitute teacher and an apprentice, of course, like you, I was not a monk, I could only be regarded as a Taoist monk, but according to my generation, I am indeed your uncle!

If I wasn't your uncle, why would I use so much manpower and material resources to find you and take you from all the way to the Heavenly Holy City?

You should already know that there is no shortage of grandmaster-level masters around me, and I don't need to spend so much energy to recruit a high-level martial artist. ”

At this time, Xiang Tao's whole person was so excited that he couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south, he had already agreed with Zhou Rui's statement, with Zhou Rui's identity, there was no need to lie to him at all.

It's developed! It's developed! I actually have an uncle with a heavy army and a lot of money!

Master, there is such a uncle, why didn't you tell me?

Otherwise, would I have been so miserable?

Xiang Tao immediately knelt on the ground, "My nephew has seen my uncle!" ”

Seeing the future god of war, he was flickered and knelt on the ground, and the little depression in Zhou Rui's heart suddenly dissipated without a trace.

"Get up! From now on, we will all be a family, don't kneel down at every turn.

But the relationship between the two of us, you are not allowed to go outside and shout, if you let me know that you are doing anything in my name, don't blame me for cleaning the door for your master! ”

After Xiang Tao stood up, he hurriedly said, "Uncle don't worry, I will never go out and talk nonsense!" ”

"In the future, no matter who comes before or after, you still call me a major general, you just know the relationship between the two of us in your heart."

"Yes, Major General, I understand."

"I don't care about the mess you used to do!

But in the future, if I know that you will enter the gambling hall again, I will definitely break all your limbs, and I will tell you which limbs you have. ”

"No...... No, don't worry, the major general, I won't gamble anymore in the future. ”

"Also, take care of your fifth limb, don't provoke any good women, if you can't control it, I'll have someone cut it off for you to keep it."

"Don't provoke, don't provoke!

That one...... Is it okay to go to Wanhualou? ”

"I have to go to that kind of place less, and I have time to learn more about how to lead soldiers.

Since you recognize me as an uncle, then you and the Zhou family are both prosperous and lossy.

You also have the responsibility to protect this family business of our Zhou family. ”

Xiang Tao said: "The young general treats me with sincerity, how dare I, Xiang Tao, be defeated!"

I must study hard to lead the troops and live up to the expectations of the major general! ”

Zhou Rui nodded with satisfaction, took out a bottle of primary physical fitness enhancement elixir from his arms, and threw it to Xiang Tao.

"This is a bottle of 'Dragon Crystal Elixir' worth millions of silver coins, after you take it, there is a high probability that you can be promoted to a grandmaster martial artist, this is a welcome gift from your uncle."

Xiang Tao looked at the "Dragon Crystal Elixir" in his hand in disbelief, he had never heard of an elixir with such an anti-heaven effect.

"You don't have to doubt that Xiong Da and Hu Yi were all promoted to grandmaster-level masters after taking the 'Dragon Crystal Elixir'."

"Uncle Shi...... No, Major General, I didn't doubt it, I just felt incredible!

Is this 'Dragon Crystal Elixir' drunk directly? ”
