Chapter 445: The Secret of King Chengjun

Li Ling and Xue Li's eyes couldn't help shrinking, and the expressions on their faces were stiff and shocked. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"How is this possible?"

"How is this possible?"

Because they were looking for, even Niu Hong, who had given up, appeared in front of the two of them very strangely.

But now Niu Hong is really miserable.

The armor on his body has been torn by some kind of beast, it has become tattered, and some of the damaged positions can clearly see the traces of injury, the blood soaked the armor, and it also made Niu Hong's face look unusually pale. Lying on the bluestone, he was wheezing hard, looking very badly injured.

The two of them saw Niu Hong, and Niu Hong naturally also saw Li Ling and Xue Li, his eyes showed a hint of joy, and then he showed surprise and fear. He struggled to support his body with his hands and tried to sit up, but perhaps because the injury was too severe, Niu Hong struggled several times without success.

In the end, he simply collapsed on the ground with some resignation, and looked at the two of them with eyes like falcons. A little bewildered:

"Help me!"

"As long as you get to North County. King Chengjun will definitely not sit idly by. ”

"There will be endless glory and wealth. ”

Li Ling and Xue Li glanced at each other, exchanged ideas vaguely, and then stepped forward and said:

"The people who have served as the personal guards of the king of Chengjun don't know how many people are. ”

"How can we believe what you say. ”

Niu Hong saw that Li Ling's heart was moved, and a glimmer of hope couldn't help but rise in his eyes.

"You're right. ”

"I don't know how many people serve as the personal guards of the king of Chengjun. ”

"But I'm not like them!"

Niu Hong, the county lieutenant of Zhibei County, said confidently.

"How is it different?"

A strange light flashed in Xue Li's eyes, and he hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"This... ”

"Because I hold the secret of King Chengjun. ”

"What a secret!"

Li Ling and Xue Li hurriedly asked.

Niu Hong, the county lieutenant of Zhibei County, showed a look of hesitation and struggle in his eyes, and he quickly measured it in his heart, and did not speak for a while.

Li Ling and Xue Li did not urge, and with the eyes of the two of them, they could naturally see that Niu Hong was already at the end of his crossbow, as long as he didn't want to die here, he would definitely confide in some secrets.

As for the loyalty to the king of Chengjun...

Is it possible for a man like him to be loyal?

He could do anything to survive. Not to mention the king of Chengjun, even his relatives may not hesitate to betray him.

It's about tea time.

Niu Hong saw that the two of them didn't ask questions at all, and they didn't mean to step forward, and looked at their bleeding wounds again, and their spirits were getting weaker and weaker, and their eyes couldn't help but show a look of anxiety.

"Your Excellency!"

"If you drag it out for a while, you'll die of blood loss. ”

"Even if we want to save you, we can't help it... ”

Xue Li glanced at Niu Hong's state, keenly noticed the wavering in his eyes, and said with some exaggeration:

"If it's in North County. Perhaps the loyalty of the adults can impress the king of the county, and after death, he will also be able to obtain the honor, so as to obtain the blessing of dragon qi in the underworld. ”

"But this is a wild place, even if the adults are loyal to the king of Chengjun, I'm afraid no one will know. ”

"It's pitiful... ”

Although he knew that Xue Li's words were to disturb his mental defense, Niu Hong's eyes couldn't help shrinking. As Xue Li said, this place is located in the middle of 100,000 mountains, and a wild area.

It is the territory of the barbarian ancestral god, and after people die here, they will enter the ancestral land.

The gods of Daqian have no way to govern at all, not to mention whether King Chengjun knows that he died in order to keep secrets and be loyal, even if he knows, there is no way to chase him.

I can only watch him sink in the infinite sea of suffering.

"I know, Lord Niu is a man, and this kind of thing can't scare you at all. ”

"However, none of these are the scariest. ”

Li Ling glanced around, suddenly lowered his voice, and said a little mysteriously.

"What's the scariest thing?"

Niu Hong was really fooled and asked with some curiosity.

"The most terrible thing is that the Lord has now been condemned as a sinner by Lord Situ, and he has hated the dragon qi of Daqian, as long as Daqian does not die, the adult will suffer from the backlash of the dragon qi for 10,000 years in the underworld. ”

"It's better to live than to die. ”

Zhibei County Lieutenant Niu Hong's face suddenly turned pale, and he said with some horror.

"The bitterness of dragon qi backlash!"

"Naturally!"

"What have you done over the years, you must know in your heart. According to the "Great Cadre Law", the dismissal of an adult's crime may already be light. ”

"My lord is now a guilty body, and after death, he is also a guilty ghost, and he is also the kind of infertile sentence, my lord, don't you think it's terrible?"

Li Ling's eyes revealed an indescribable evil, and his voice was a little gloomy.

"This!"

Niu Hong thought of that terrible scene, his body couldn't help but tremble, and there was no resistance in his eyes. Some collapsed loudly shouted:

"I say!"

"I say!"

Li Ling and Xue Li glanced at each other, and they both saw a look of joy in each other's eyes.

Catching Niu Hong was a surprise for them, and if they got some important news from him, they would definitely add a lot of points in front of Si Tu.

This is too important for two young people who want to make a difference in the barracks.

"Although Zhibei County is not large, it does not have much population. However, the location is very important, located at the junction of the three of Daqian, the wilderness and the outer land. ”

Since Niu Hong planned to confess, there was naturally no need to cover it up, and his voice was a little low but very clear.

"Yes!"

Li Ling and Xue Li nodded at the same time. Knowing the importance of Bei County, there is no need to say more, otherwise this place would not have hoarded five thousand soldiers and armor, and there were several captains in command.

"Zhibei County is the gateway to the Great Cadre and the Outer Regions, and the caravan camel gang must pass through here to exit and enter the customs. ”

When King Chengjun saw this opportunity, he asked his stewards to use the power of the palace to do a little business with the foreigners. ”

Li Ling and Xue Li's eyes couldn't help but light up, but then they dimmed again. There are caravans between the Chengjun Royal Mansion and the outer regions, although it is secret, but it is not a secret in Zhibei County.

As long as you have the heart to investigate, you will naturally be able to know a thing or two. And the imperial court may not be unaware of this matter, but the commercial and trade activities of King Chengjun can still progress, and there is no connivance of the king.

"It's not a secret. ”

"Everyone knows it!"

Xue Li looked at Niu Hong, who looked a little weak, couldn't help but sneer, and said with some disdain:

"General Niu is really loyal to King Chengjun, I admire him!"

"Brother Xue!"

"I think we'd better go back to camp, there's still a good show tomorrow!"

Li Ling said with some interest.

"Brother Li, that's what you said!"

Xue Li saw that Niu Hong didn't plan to tell the truth, so he said with some encouragement:

"It's just a pity that a man not only has to die in a foreign land, but also in the underworld. ”

Seeing that the two of them really planned to turn around and leave, Niu Hong couldn't help but flash a trace of anxiety in his eyes, and said loudly:

"It's no secret that King Chengjun has caravans with the Outlands. ”

"And in Beijun, if you want to trade with the outer lands, you must have the approval of the king of Chengjun. ”

"However, what everyone doesn't know is that what King Chengjun traded with the foreign lands was not spices, gems and porcelain at all, but a large number of swords, as well as bows and crossbows!"

Li Ling and Xue Li couldn't help but pause as they were leaving, and their eyes showed a look of disbelief.

"How is this possible?"

"How does the king of Chengjun trade weapons with the outlands. This is expressly forbidden in Daqian, and if it is discovered, it will be a felony for the Zhulian clan!"

"King Chengjun bought a large number of weapons, what does he want to do?

Niu Hong seemed to have expected the performance of the two of them, and said in a faint voice.

"This is the secret of King Chengjun. ”

"If it weren't for the trade of weapons, how could I go to Zhibei County, a remote and border place, to serve as a county lieutenant?"

"Zhibei County has always been under the control of King Chengjun. ”

"Hu County Order, Master Li is also a close confidant of King Chengjun. ”

"This time, if it weren't for Hu Buwei's sudden hanging of the seal and letting Situ get a leak, I wouldn't have been so passive. ”

Thinking of today's passivity and the hardships he suffered, Niu Hong said through gritted teeth.

"Hu doesn't want to do a good county order, why do you want to hang the seal?"

Xue Li asked in some surprise.

Niu Hong glanced at Xue Li, his eyes showed a hint of hesitation, and finally said without hesitation:

"Hu doesn't go to hang the seal!"

On the surface, because of the surging undercurrents in Zhibei County, a civil uprising may occur at any time, and he is worried about endangering himself. Mingzhe protects his life, and retreats bravely from the rapids. ”

"In fact, it was because the king of Chengjun was applied, and he was even taken away from his soldiers and horses, and he showed his decline in the battle for the dragon. ”

"That Hu Buwei is a speculator, how can he sink with the big ship of the county king?"

"I didn't expect this Master Hu to be a smart person. ”

A very abrupt voice appeared.

The corners of Niu Hong's mouth couldn't help but rise a trace of disdain, and he pouted with a mocking expression and said:

"What a smart man, but a villain who sees the wind and rudders. The king of the county is also gone, so he will reuse him. ”

Niu Hong's eyes suddenly contracted, and his face showed shock. Because in front of him, I don't know when there was a Confucian student wearing a green coat and a face like a crown of jade.

"Situ Punishment!"

"You're a prisoner!"

"Why are you here?"

Niu Hong's face showed a look of shock, and after a while, he asked in an unbelievable tone.

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency!"

Li Ling and Xue Li were also shocked, they really couldn't understand how Situ Xing discovered this place and happened to appear.

Situ Xing turned his head and nodded lightly at the two of them with a warm face, and his eyes showed even more satisfaction.

"You two have contributed to the capture of sinners!"

"If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and you will return to the barracks. Naturally, you have your reward. ”

"No!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Li Ling and Xue Li glanced at each other, hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said gratefully.

"You can be here, why can't this official be here!"

Situ Xing turned his head to look at the embarrassed body, like a beggar handing your cow Hong, a trace of strangeness rose in his eyes, and he said with some amusement:

"It's the dress of Lord Niu.,It's really weird... ”
