Chapter 1: Thunder (6b)

Mingwei General Cui Qian was at the bottom of the valley with several captains, and when he heard the summons of the main general, he hurriedly ran up the mountain. "What did the general call me for, could it be that there is a change in the battle situation ahead?" From afar, he greeted Li Xu warmly. Suddenly, he found that Zhou Daniu had been following him unhurriedly, and he took off the horizontal knife from his waist and turned around and handed it over to the other party.

"Don't care about these false courtesies!" Li Xu shook his head and ordered with a wry smile.

"In front of the general, Cui Mou should pay attention to some rules!" Cui Qian smiled bitterly and slowly approached. "Besides, with the skills of a general, there is no difference between this knife and not!"

Zhou Daniu snorted, which was counted as a response to Cui Qian. He despises this kind of person the most, so he doesn't want to leave any affection for the other party.

"The two generals have something to do, and they will retire first!" Zhao Ziming arched his hand to Li Xu and turned to leave. He didn't want to see what was about to happen, although at the moment when the Fenyang army entered the mountain, he already knew all the endings. From the bottom of his heart, General Mingwei Cui Qian is a good boss, humble, broad-minded, and well-organized in handling things. But this person should not have been born in the Bolingcui family, and for the sake of the family's interests, he had no choice but to stand on the opposite side of the general.

"I'm waiting on the mountainside! The general can be summoned at any time if he has something! Seeing Zhao Ziming leaving, Zhou Daniu also stopped in his tracks. Holding Cui Qian's horizontal knife in his hand, he led more than fifty guards to quietly form a half ring on the hillside. If someone tries to get close to Li Xu, they must first pass him.

The atmosphere under the ancient pine suddenly became a little awkward, and although everyone had a smile on their faces, the mountain wind suddenly became cold, faintly earthy. At the junction of the sky and the sky in the distance, several dark black clouds were surging into the air. ,

"I think there's a change in the rear!" After seeing everyone's performance, Cui Qian sighed and asked miserably.

"The Taishou of Shanggu and Boling Second County have all returned to their hometowns!" Li Xu hesitated for a moment and answered truthfully. Things have come to this point, and he himself doesn't want to see it. But he had to face it, because it was a matter of life and death for countless people.

A look of surprise flashed in Cui Qian's eyes, and almost instinctively, he reached his hand to his waist. But in the next moment, he stopped struggling uselessly. "In this way, Cui should congratulate my lord!" The smile on Cui Qian's face was very bitter, but at the same time, there was a faint sense of indescribable ease.

"The Bolingcui family is not involved." Li Xu raised the letter in his hand, and did not feel any joy of victory in his heart. "On the contrary, before the two guards told the old man, they had already sent someone to my house to say that everything was to be done by my horse."

"They've always seen opportunities quickly, otherwise they wouldn't have lasted for hundreds of years." Cui Qian had a very handsome face, and his gestures carried a strong bookish atmosphere. If it weren't for the freshly healed scar on his neck that ruined the harmony of his smile, this son would feel more like a well-educated Hongru than a military general who can fight in battle.

Reaching out and picking up the legging skirt, he sat down on the stone where Zhao Ziming had sat before. There is no panic on his face that the conspiracy has been revealed, only endless loneliness.

"Hundreds of years, there is indeed a reason that lasts for hundreds of years!" Li Xu sighed with Cui Qian, and slowly sat down opposite the chess scale. In the letter sent by Lu Qin, the Boling Cui family not only expressed their loyalty to Li Xu, but also took the initiative to draw a clear line with Cui Qian.

"How does the Boling Cui family explain their relationship with me, whether they are unfilial and rebellious, or reckless. Forget it, this matter is indeed my confusion for a while, and I have nothing to do with the Boling Cui family! Cui Qian picked up a particle from the chessboard and gently threw it into the wooden box beside him. Now, he has become an outcast of the family. How Li Xu disposes of him has nothing to do with the Cui family. It will not worsen the relationship between the two parties and will not affect the future cooperation between the two parties.

"I would rather believe that this policy is completely out of the Cui family, and I have to retreat!" Li Xu lowered his head and picked the sunspots on the chess scale into the chess box one by one, "Retreat is not an ambitious person, I know it in my heart!" He smiled bitterly, and regret in his heart was like a spring.

"Who put me in a position where I can take your place!" Cui Qian stretched his waist and looked up to the sky and sighed. "Get rid of you, and the Fenyang Army will be in my hands. No matter how chaotic the world outside is, Cui, Li, Wang, Zhang, Zhao, our family will be protected safely! ”

"It's good that you didn't plan to let me die in battle!"

"I won't be soft if necessary. Do you remember what Zhang Jin said that day? This is troubled times, kill or be killed. Cui Qian lowered his head and helped Li Xu clean up the chessboard.

At that time, Zhang Jin said that he was just a timid businessman who was bullied by officials, but in the end he became a robber leader who killed people without blinking. The reason why he became angry and killed Sun Jiu was not because the two sides had any deep hatred for each other, but because Sun Jiu also had the ability to kill him, Huo and his subordinates. Before deciding to make a move on Sun Jiu, he may not have struggled in his heart, but after struggling, he still made the most ruthless choice.

The sky is a furnace, and what the people inside are refined into may not be able to grasp at all.

"It's a pity Zhang Ji, I shouldn't have promised him to stay in the army!"

"His understanding of the world is still before he gets out of the jam, and of course there is no way to live!" Cui Qian, who had already given up struggling, was unusually calm. "But you have to change your character. You fulfilled Zhang Ji's last wish, but you don't know how much trouble you will cause yourself in the future. If Zhang Jin says that he will make a comeback in the future......"

"Then I'll beat him one more time, and then catch him and kill him!" Li Xu took out two sunspots from the packed chess box and placed them on the chessboard one by one. The rules of Go, the one who holds the white first, but he doesn't want to follow it. "Zhang Ji is our own brother, and he exchanged his life for the life of his family, and I can't help but agree. But Zhang Jin said that there would be no second chance, and if he stopped and found a no-one Fang to live by, I would not chase and kill. If he has the ability to make a comeback, I'll keep him with nothing. ”

Cui Qian paused again, and through a chess title, he still felt the strong confidence exuded from the other party. "You are not the Zhong Jian of the past! I'm so stupid! He slapped himself, then picked up two white seeds, placed them on the chessboard, and confronted Kuroko.

"Suffered so many losses! There's always something to learn! Li Xu responded with a smile, falling like the wind.

"Indeed, you've always learned things quickly!" Cui Qian praised in a low voice, insisting on white and resisting. The world is like chess, but unfortunately it can't be reviewed. If he could do it all over again, he didn't think he would lose as badly as he did today.

"You also said that these are troubled times. I didn't want to die in a daze, so I had to work harder! Li Xu grinned and gave the other party a ridiculous answer. After going through so many turmoil, if his mind was still as simple as it was back then, he didn't know how many times he had died. Yet he is still alive, and he is getting bigger and bigger.

There are some methods, he does not know, but he is unwilling and disdainful to use them. But if the danger has reached what he is guarding, he will not hesitate to use any killer moves.

A few sunspots fell quickly, hitting the mid-abdomen from the corners, aggressively. Cui Qian was tired of parrying and full of flaws. After barely coping with a few children, he was unwilling to ask: "When did you find out?" ”

"From the moment you said you were leaving the Xiongwu Camp to the moment I was doing things under my command!" Li Xu took another step forward and did not hide it, "The Yuwen family treats you well. And although his family's power has been temporarily hit, it is far stronger than me, a general who has no foundation. The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, since your Cui family is dependent on people, you will not abandon the Yuwen family and take me! ”

"Then you still keep me as a general and let me be your arm?" Cui Qian smacked heavily on the chess scale, and his eyes widened and asked. He found that he was too wrong, and if the truth was as Li Xu said, even if he had a second chance, he would still lose cleanly. It's like this game of chess in front of you.

Three years ago, Li Xu was ignorant of human affairs, and he guessed that the other party's mind was insightful. And today, Li Xu saw him clearly, but he didn't know how many back moves the other party was holding in his hands.

When you meet such an opponent, it's no wonder if you don't lose!

"Didn't you do a good job before the army entered the mountains? Helped me solve a lot of problems, and there was no shortage of good ideas! Besides, your Cui family has a huge influence in Boling, as long as your Cui family is willing to obey my orders, even if it is false and wronged, others will have to follow. With so many favorable conditions, why don't I use it? Li Xu smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"No, Cui is convinced!" Cui Qian pushed forward and stood up laughing. "I'm not wronged at all when I lose to you. This scenery is very good, just to bury the bones! ”

He looked up at the sky that had begun to darken. The wind is surging, and a rainstorm is coming. I hope that after the rain, this world will be washed away a little cleaner.

"I didn't think of a reason to kill you!" Xuzi sighed, stood up, and stood side by side beside Cui Qian. Does all this have to be solved by killing? He thought of Sun Jiu, Zhang Jincheng, and the battle flag of the word "Xu" raised high in the Wagang Army.

"If it were me, I would never show you mercy." Cui Qian turned his head in surprise and looked at Xuzi again, with a rare touch of truth in his eyes. "You report that I am not in the hands of bandits! For hundreds of years, many heroes have done this. He forced himself to smile and came up with one last great idea.

"Just because you're in a position to threaten me, isn't it?" Li Xu stared at the other party's eyes, his gaze was still as clear as water. Killing is someone else's solution, not his. "Ueya County lacks a county guard. The civilian officials, who have no military power, pose no threat to me. With your current position and the power of the Bolingcui family, it is not difficult to transfer to this position by spending some money. We don't have many brothers left, and I don't want anyone to die at the hands of my own brothers! ”

With that, he left the stunned Cui Qian, turned around and strode down the hill.
