Chapter 181
"The Bai family in Tongzhou has always been the backbone of the Yinnu faction, and they are candidates for the next suzerains of the Yinnu faction. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info," Li Rong said.
"By the way, it looks like my uncle is not in good health, and I still have a vial of the Source of Life there," Adani continued.
The source of life is the supreme divine product of bacon's solid source, and it is the most effective way to replenish vitality.
"Even you see what happened to your father?" Li Rong sighed sadly, "I tried, but it didn't work." ā
Adani's words froze, and her body trembled slightly. Since she was a child, she has heard her father A Luo regret tell the story of Li Hui, and regarded him as invincible, a senior who is both civil and military, and also the biggest support of the A Luo regret family in the imperial court.
Seeing that Adani was very shaken, Li Rong continued: "Don't think about it, the older generation will always pass away, and we will have to stand up and support the portal sooner or later." ā
"Hmm," Adani nodded.
Three days later, Li Rong went to the imperial city to report to the military department. The imperial city is also called Taiwei City, which is the place where the central ministries work, and is also known as the outer court.
Since the first year of Guangzhai, Wu Zetian changed the six departments to the six officials of heaven and earth, spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the military department has become the summer official book.
It has been three months since Li Rong received the holy decree to appoint him as General Yulin, and today he came to Xia Guan to find Qiu Shenji to sign a document.
After reading Li Rong's letter of appointment, Xia Guan's junior official turned around and reported to Lang Zhong, who was in charge of the ministry, that this kind of position could not be decided by a small official.
But after half an hour, the little official didn't come back for a long time, and Li Rong sat in the lobby alone, no one cared for him.
Li Rong knew that all this might come from Qiu Shenji's gesture, and he didn't come directly to the door to fight, because he had a good temper and a broad mind, so he would warmly congratulate him in person.
No one can estimate how big the Qiu family's loss is, and at a certain level, it can't be measured by money.
Li Rong spent three months in retreat and practice, striving to advance to the third realm of the sixth rank in order to cope with today's situation.
After a long time, the little official came over cautiously, with a gloomy face, and led Li Rong to the back hall, where Shangshu's office was.
Qiu Shenji sat behind the bookcase, reading the documents with an expressionless face, turning a blind eye to Li Rong who walked in, and naturally did not offer a stool.
Li Rongzhi can understand Qiu Shenji's mood, and ignoring it is the unspoken rule of officialdom superiors to subordinates on the one hand, and Qiu Shenji secretly oppresses him with momentum.
The Eight-Rank Entering the Micro Realm Grandmaster can already condense qi and form, mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth, and form an aura that is beneficial to oneself, or it can be called a realm.
The temperature in the air gradually increased, and in late autumn, there was a faint heat, and what was even more amazing was that the heat echoed with the blood in Li Rong's body, directly steaming his blood through his body's true qi.
"Soft water true qi," Li Rong faced the attack, his face did not change, the soft water true qi flowed around his body, and a cool intention drove away the heat from his heart, and the heat in his blood was also expelled.
"Your cultivation is really the "Water Book", and only those who have practiced the "Water Book" can kill my son without leaving a trace." Qiu Shenji raised his head and said, the blood in his eyes flashed, and he pierced Li Rong's eyes, and his eyes seemed to be substantial.
Li Rong has practiced the secret technique of "Observing the Microscopic Eye", and his eyes are looking directly at the sun without hindrance, and he can compete with Qiu Shenji's bloody eyes.
"Your son died well, and he blames others?" Li Rong said without showing weakness.
""Shui Shui" is the most restrained by my blood and flames, besides, you killed my son, the great elder of my Qiu family, you and I have no common hatred, but unfortunately the timing is not right today, give you a chance to strike three times, you will live if you pass, and you will die if you can't take it." Qiu Shenji's crimson figure seemed to be a trick, and suddenly flashed from behind the bookcase to Li Rong's body, and struck it with one palm.
Qiu Shenji's white palm was instantly filled with blood, and it swelled in a circle, and the blood flame giant palm that was powerful enough to burn the sky and boil the sea attacked Li Rong.
Li Rong is dragon yin knife out of the sheath, through the dragon yin knife blade rubbing against the scabbard, making a crisp sound. The voice dispelled the nameless enthusiasm in his heart.
"Moving mountains", Li Rong said in his heart, the dragon sword swallowed the golden sword, condensed into a mountain-shaped knife qi in the air, like a slow and solid disease, like picking up a mountain weighing more than 10,000 catties, the knife mountain smashed into the blood flame giant palm.
After three months of hard work, Li Rong not only improved in the realm of martial arts, but also gained a new understanding of martial arts and swordsmanship.
This style of "moving mountains" knife qi condenses into a mountain shape, indestructible, and deeply wins the true qi of King Kong to subdue the demon to the rigid to the deep meaning, containing the infinite true meaning of soft water and true air, and the softest to the slightest is vividly expressed.
The Golden Knife Mountain collided with the Blood Flame Giant Palm.
If the small hall encounters an earthquake, it is shaken by the sound of the collision of the sword mountain and the giant palm.
The golden sword mountain instantly smashed into the Blood Flame Giant Palm, and then turned into flowing water and extinguished the remaining Blood Flame.
Of course, this does not mean that Li Rong has the upper hand, after all, the realm of the two is too different, and in terms of the amount of true qi, Li Rong is far inferior to Qiu Shenji.
One "moving mountain" consumed a quarter of Li Rong's true qi, his body was boiled in boiling water, his skin was red, and the huge force from the exchange of true qi forced him to take a few steps back and almost stepped out of the hall.
This Qiu Shenjie was really shocked, he thought to himself that he used ten percent of his strength for this blow, even an ordinary seventh-grade grandmaster could not be unharmed, and Li Rong, a sixth-grade martial artist, actually took it, and he was not injured. So the killing intent in his heart deepened a little deeper, this is worth it, when he himself was in the six-rank realm, he didn't have such strength, didn't that mean that Li Rong's martial arts talent was above him?
"This style is a variation of Li Zhen's mountain-destroying fist?" Qiu Shenji unexpectedly stopped, did not continue to shoot, and said thoughtfully.
Li Zhen's age is the same as Qiu Shenji, Li Hui and others, all of whom are children of a family with extraordinary martial arts talents, plus Li Zhen later stood on the opposite side of Wu Zetian, Qiu Shenji is quite familiar with Li Zhen and understands Li Zhen's world-shattering "Mountain Destroying Fist".
"Qiu Shangshu's eyes are like electricity, and it was indeed inadvertently obtained from the hands of Li Zhen, the king of Yue." Li Rong did not hide it.
In the face of a grandmaster like Qiu Shenji, deliberately concealing it is undoubtedly covering his ears and stealing the bell, and it doesn't make much sense.
"Let's go!" Qiu Shenji stood with his hands in his hands and said coldly.
Li Rong slowly retreated, left the Xia Guan Hall, and went to the Xiyuan Flying Cavalry Station to take office.
If the two of them continue to fight, Qiu Shenji should be able to kill Li Rong, but if he starts in the imperial city, it will inevitably cause great damage, and no one will allow this kind of thing to happen.
When one of the Xia officials and prime ministers of the dynasty killed his subordinate General Yulin with his bare hands in the lobby, it would definitely become a joke of the imperial court. It is estimated that Wu Zetian will immediately send a master to surround and kill Qiu Shenji by unscrupulous means, and even destroy the Qiu family in Luoyang.
Officialdom has the rules of officialdom, and when you are in officialdom, you have to abide by those potential rules, even if you are a grandmaster-level master.
Qiu Shenji didn't want to make a move, depending on the situation, he couldn't help Li Rong if he continued to fight, at most he would be slightly injured, it was better to hide it and wait for the right opportunity in the future.
The West Garden is still the same, the pine and bamboo, lush, the Taiguan Palace, the staggered. Flying horses and thousands of horses are stationed in the westernmost part of Xiyuan, backed by the confluence of the three rivers of Lingu Water, Jianshui and Luoshui, with slightly higher terrain and beautiful scenery.
When the knife came to the camp gate, Li Rong dismounted and walked and showed the token.
A guard of the camp had already greeted him respectfully, took the reins of Li Rong's horse, and sent him to the stable to take care of it.
Li Rong was appointed as the general of Yulin, and the news of escorting the flying cavalry envoy had already spread throughout the flying cavalry and the thousand cavalry. Originally, the flying cavalry and the thousand cavalry were from the same source, and they camped next to each other, and the soldiers naturally knew Li Rong, the former commander of the thousand cavalry.
The former general Yulin, Yang Qizhuang was promoted to the general of Zuowu Weiwei and became one of the generals of the army under the imperial court, and his status was even higher. As for Yang Zhiyi, he still served as the envoy of the Qianqian cavalry, and Changshi Yuanxing rushed to move to the history of Shaanzhou, and concurrently served as the envoy of Longyou and Guannei.
Wu Zetian sent Yuan Xingchong to inspect all parts of Guanzhong, with the intention of stabilizing the situation in Guanzhong, and at the same time firmly controlling Shaanzhou, an important place connecting Guanzhong and Guandong, so as to prevent the Guanlong clique from rebelling and opposing Wu Zetian's accession to the throne. Another reason is that in order to coordinate the factional struggle within the Heavenly Demon Sect, he followed the advice of the "Demon Monk" Huaiyi and transferred Yuan Xingchong, who was very powerful in the sect and even in Luoyang.
Yuan Xingchong, as a descendant of the "empress" Yuanhua, and a descendant of the Yuan clan of the Wei Dynasty, is quite powerful in the court and the Heavenly Demon Sect, representing the hidden faction of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and is unwilling to get too involved in the court politics.
After Li Rong entered the camp, he once again met with Li Duozuo, the general of Yulin, and was cordially received by Li Duozuo. Different from the first meeting, Li Duozuo had seen Li Rong's excellent ability to command the army, and he valued this rising star very much.
With the experience of commanding a thousand cavalry, coupled with the transcendent and invincible strength of the grandmaster, as well as a lot of information from his father Li Hui, Li Rong easily subdued the flying cavalry, and completely controlled the entire army in a few months.
It is not Li Rong's ambition to be a high-ranking official, and it is not Li Rong's goal to be in a prominent position like his father Li Hui, and to control the government. For him, the official position is just a platform for cultivation, not a pursuit. Many people, including the grandmasters, like his father Li Hui, Qiu Shenji, who had fought in the Xia Guan Hall, obviously used martial arts as a means to power, and it was a fluke for this kind of person to reach the current state, and it was almost impossible to reach the next level. It's not that their martial arts talent is inferior to others, but that the direction is wrong. This can be proved by Wu Youxu, in terms of his talent, which is not much stronger than Li Hui and Qiu Shenji, but he is dedicated to practicing hard, and the martial arts realm is above the two of them, and there is the possibility of advancing to the ninth rank.
