Chapter 45 The so-called masters
Walking out of Liu Heimin's tent, Cheng Yanjin looked up at the sun that was almost scorching to death, and squinted his eyes unconsciously. Just now in Liu Heimin's tent, he didn't say anything, just smiled gently at Liu Heimin, and walked out. Recalling that when he raised his feet, Liu Heimin's face was pale and trembling, and Cheng Yanjin was dumbfounded.
Now, Cheng Yanjin has been 100% sure that Liu Heimin was really not at ease at the beginning. However, Cheng Yanjin was not in a hurry to act. Wouldn't it be more relieving to let that bastard suffer in fear than to kill him.
Scooping a few scoops of water out of the water tank next to him, and flushing his somewhat dizzy head, Cheng Yanjin turned around and walked towards the place where his horse was placed. After Liu Heimin's stubble, Cheng Yanjin didn't have the best to drink, so let's go back early, and stay in this ghost place for even a second longer, Cheng Yanjin was afraid that he would not be able to control it and tear Liu Heimin to pieces.
Ordered the soldiers guarding the horses to call out his cousin Qin Qiong, who was still drinking in the camp tent, looking at the resentment on his cousin's face, Cheng Yanjin shook his head helplessly. This kind of banquet has always been my cousin's favorite, not that he covets the contents of the cup. It's just that in this case, it's the only time when my cousin can drink happily with his former colleagues in an open and honest manner.
The Wagang Army has developed to the present and has accepted many civil and military generals of the imperial court. Many of them were former cousins. For example, Pei Renji's father and son, who returned to the Wagang Army with their cousin, General Luo Shixin and others, and some not very famous generals. When these former colleagues get together, they naturally have a lot to say. But Cheng Biting Jin pulled out Qin Qiong, who was on the rise, how could he be happy?
However, Qin Qiong didn't blame Cheng Biting Jin for this, anyway, there will be opportunities to get together with colleagues in the future, and it will not be bad this time. After tidying up the horses, the group rushed towards Cheng Yanjin's camp.
Absorbing the lesson of being robbed and killed by Zhu Yuyan last time, every time Cheng Yanjin came to Li Mi's camp, there were at least hundreds of martial arts masters around him. Although it was a little inappropriate for hundreds of martial arts masters to enter and leave Li Mi's military camp, Li Mi also knew Cheng Jin's difficulties, but he did not embarrass him because of this.
Cheng Yanjin didn't know that Zhu Yuyan had given Liu Heimin an order to temporarily stop the pursuit, and naturally he didn't know how much effort and determination Zhu Yuyan, who was so angry that he almost vomited blood, made this decision.
Just as Cheng Yanjin cautiously returned to his headquarters camp, on a hidden tree, two slim figures stood watching his team from a distance. It's just that because these two people are wearing emerald green clothes, which are in harmony with the surrounding leaves, if you don't pay attention, you won't be able to notice it.
Retracting her farsighted gaze, Wan Wan looked at the master beside her, and asked cautiously, "Master, do you really want to let this person go?" Do you want the disciple to kill him? ”
Zhu Yuyan snorted coldly, "No, this kid is so hateful, how can you let him go easily?" However, now Jiuding's whereabouts are likely to fall on him, so we can't act rashly for the time being. Now the Holy Gate is looking for Jiuding everywhere, according to the news of the arrival of the teacher, this person is likely to be the only person who knows the whereabouts of Jiuding, the last time the teacher went to find him, but also hoped to force the whereabouts of Jiuding from this kid. If it weren't for his presumptuous words, how could the teacher kill him?
Just because of this matter, the sect masters of other sects in the Holy Gate have already asked for being a teacher, and our Holy Gate wants to overwhelm the Demon Gate, so the only way to find Jiuding is to let my Holy Gate disciples be the co-masters of the world. This matter is a major event that countless ancestors of my Holy Gate have never forgotten when they are dying, how can a teacher delay the future of my Holy Gate because of a little personal grudge? Besides, as long as Jiuding gathers, it will not be too late to avenge him for the teacher! ”
Saying that, Zhu Yuyan sneered again: "This kid is a character!" I suffered a loss last time, and this time I actually brought so many people! But what kind of idiot is this kid's master, didn't he tell this kid that more people doesn't necessarily mean more power? As for those martial arts masters, they thought that the master's kung fu would kill them for at most a stick of incense, no matter how many people there were, wouldn't they be all waste? Seeing that this kid's internal strength has improved better than last time, he is obviously also a very talented person, such a dangerous guy can't let it go. Tell us to go down, let our people pay attention to him day and night, and once Jiuding gathers, the teacher will feed him to the dogs! ”
Cheng Yanjin didn't know that because of some inexplicable reasons, he narrowly missed the two killing gods. When he returned to the camp, Cheng Yanjin inquired privately and learned that Zhang Liang had quietly left the barracks with a team of martial arts masters.
It didn't take Zhang Liang a few days to bring back Xu Hongke, who was dressed as a Taoist priest. In Xu Hongke's frightened gaze, Cheng Yanjin carefully examined his whole body as if he were examining an animal, and then said to Zhang Liang on the side with satisfaction, "Yes, unharmed!" You're finally obedient once! Ye will not let you run in vain, the few jars of fine wine you wanted to drink last time will send someone to bring you over in a while. ”
Looking at Xu Hongke, who was paralyzed on the ground, Cheng Yanjin smiled and pulled him up, "Oh, Daoist Xu, don't be angry, your subordinates are rude and snub the Dao Chief, I hope the Dao Chief doesn't mind!" ”
Xu Hongke stood up with trembling legs, grabbed the table next to him, and asked in a trembling voice, "You, who are you?" ”
Cheng Yanjin smiled slightly, "Why is Xu Daochang confused?" Can't you guess who Bengong is when you come here? ”
Hearing Cheng Yanjin claiming to be his father, Xu Hongke's eyes widened, and he said with some surprise, "You, you, the general, is it Wei Gong Li Mi?" ”
Cheng Yanjin straightened his chest, "It's Bengong!" Didn't Xu Daochang write a letter to his father? This duke was very interested in Xu Daochang's suggestion to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the world, so he sent his subordinates to invite Xu Daochang! It's just that these subordinates are all vulgar sergeants, who don't know Xu Daochang's high-ranking identity, and they have offended Xu Daochang a lot, and my father is here to make amends to you on their behalf! ”
Saying that, Cheng Yanjin said to Zhang Liang, who was standing behind Xu Hongke and was holding back a smile with a strange look, and said, "You bastard, don't get out quickly, lest Daochang Xu get angry when he sees you!" ”
As soon as Zhang Liang left, there were only two people left in the tent, Cheng Yanjin and Xu Hongke. Xu Hongke sat on the chair next to him and looked Cheng Yanjin up and down. The appearance of this Wei Gong in front of him seemed to be very different from what he had heard, and Xu Hongke had never seen Li Mi's portrait, so he naturally couldn't tell the truth from the fake. Besides, rumors may not be credible.
When Li Mi besieged Luoyang, folklore has it that he had three heads and six arms, five feet tall and seven feet high, and had vast magical powers, calling for wind and rain and omnipotent. These rumors are naturally not credible, if that is the case, wouldn't Li Mi become a monster? Therefore, seeing that the Duke of Wei in front of him was very different from himself, Xu Hongke was not surprised.
What's more, Cheng Yanjin was able to tell the content of his letter, which made Xu Hongke sure that the person in front of him was the real Wei Gong. His letter was sent by a confidant, and no one else could know about it except Li Mi.
After identifying Cheng Yanjin's identity, Xu Hongke became a little bold at the moment. When Zhang Liang went to arrest him viciously, Xu Hongke thought that his hiding place was known by the enemy, so he was worried and scared along the way, and in just a few days, the whole person lost a whole circle.
Now knowing that the person in front of him is Wei Gong, who has a request for him, although he is shocked by the profundity of this person's martial arts cultivation, Xu Hongke is not very afraid. At that moment, he cleared his throat and said slowly, "Thanks to Duke Wei's compliment, since Duke Wei agrees with his opinion, how about asking Duke Wei to send a general to accompany me the next day?" As the so-called soldier is fast, as long as the operation is done properly, Yang Guang who is stranded in Yangzhou will be captured alive, and this world is in the palm of Wei Gong's hand! ”
Cheng Yanjin pretended to frown, "Having said that, Yangzhou is still some distance away from Luoyang, and there are still several forces in the middle. Especially Du Fuwei, the governor of Liyang, who has been extremely active recently, and now all the rebels in the Jianghuai area are dominated by him, and his prestige is so great that even the tens of thousands of forbidden troops stationed in Jiangdu do not dare to plunder his front. How could Xu Daochang ensure that his army's army arrived in Jiangdu safely and captured Yang Guang? ”
Xu Hongke raised his head proudly, "This is exactly where I want to serve Duke Wei next." In the lower Daomen, many of the elders of the same sect are serving in the imperial court, as long as Wei Gong is willing to scatter money, he will be able to persuade these elders to secretly help Wei Gong. As for Du Fuwei of Liyang, when the time comes, the elders who will only have to speak in front of Yang Guang and let the tens of thousands of Yulin troops left behind to attack, even if they can't defeat him, they can entangle him and make him unable to get out. ”
Hearing what Xu Daochang said, my father had confidence. My father also knows a little about the Daomen, I don't know what sect Xu Daochang came from, my father has time, and I want to pay my respects! ”
Hearing Cheng Yanjin's question, Xu Hongke's excited expression suddenly became depressed, "Don't hide it from Duke Wei, the 'Stability and Unity' alliance that was born on Mount Tai is just that the alliance has long since died out due to infighting, but Duke Wei can't go!" ”
Cheng Yan Jin stood up and said, "Stability and solidarity alliance? Seeing Xu Hongke's affirmative nod, Cheng Yanjin was a little speechless, when he led people to kill Mount Tai, he killed all the martial arts masters above, but he didn't expect that there would be fish that slipped through the net.
Fortunately, he was quietly brought there at the beginning, and no one knew, otherwise he would have been killed by this escaped guy. But this kid is too unlucky, he actually sent it to the door by himself, this time I have to ask carefully, so as not to have another trouble.
Stared at by Cheng Biting Jin's strange gaze, Xu Hongke would be mistaken, and hurriedly defended, "Duke Wei, please rest assured, although the master is gone, but the family teacher and several uncles are still there, and it was because he wanted to follow the family teacher to the imperial court to worship the pavilion to enjoy the blessings, so he escaped." As long as Duke Wei is willing to grant us the status of protectors of the country, enjoy the same status as the emperor's relatives and relatives, and fund us to establish a faction, the family teacher and several uncles will swear allegiance to Duke Wei! ”
