Chapter 1002 The future is on him

Li Tai's funeral has been dealt with, Wu Yiyi arranged for him to be buried thickly, and then sent someone back to the camp to inform his family. This is the first general lost by the Black Flag Army in recent years, and he did not die on the battlefield, but died in the assassination. Li Tai began to follow Fang Xie from the northwest, at that time he was a member of the Sui army in the northwest wolf milk mountain, although there was no great talent, but he was cautious and steady, when he was divided into cavalry flying word battalions, Fang Xie promoted him to the deputy general of the cavalry of the first army.

Later, as the strength of the Black Flag Army grew, Li Tai's military rank was also promoted from deputy general to general. Then he led the army to gallop thousands of miles and rushed to Xinyang City to defend it.

Regarding Li Tai's death, the soldiers of the Black Flag Army felt a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Fang Xie left behind Sanjin Hou Wu Yiyi and Daozun Xiang Qingniu, if Fang Xie took the two of them when he returned to the southwest that day, I am afraid that Li Tai was not the only general assassinated in the camp that day.

"With such a big game, Gao Kaitai has no such scheming and no such overall view."

Dugu Wenxiu glanced at Fang Jie: "The lord said before that this matter involved a Jianghu sect called the Moon Shadow Hall, maybe all this was planned by the people of the Moon Shadow Hall." ”

"This man is very unusual, he has not yet shown up but has already calculated everything. Perhaps he was just watching from the sidelines, waiting for an opportunity. It can be seen that the Moon Shadow Hall definitely does not want to re-emerge from the rivers and lakes, and the person in charge of the Moon Shadow Hall is only afraid of having big ambitions. ”

Wu Yi looked at Fang Jie: "The top priority now is to divide the troops to attack the Lingmen Pass first. As long as the Lingmen Pass is guarded, that place is extremely treacherous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the wolf rider is not familiar with the tactics of attacking the city and conquering the territory, and it is not so easy to capture the Lingmen Pass. If the wolf rider has not yet arrived at Lingmen Pass, you can also send troops to the west to defend Yishui. ”

Fang Xie nodded and instructed Chen Xiaoru: "Go and find Yan Zeng." ”

Chen Xiaoru agreed, turned around and went out to send someone.

"Lord ......"

Dugu Wenxiu pondered for a moment and looked at Fang Jie: "Use Yan to increase ...... Is there something out of place? ”

His voice lowered slightly: "If this is really a big situation, Yan Zeng is Gao Kaitai's old department, and his guarding Liyin City is the top priority, if Gao Kaitai trusts him, he may not tell him about this bureau, right?" If he knows this, then his surrender ......"

Wu Yiyi's eyes changed: "What does Dugu mean is that Gao Kaitai deliberately lost Liyin City in order to lead us north, in order to achieve his goal of encircling us with the wolf horseman?" ”

Dugu Wenxiu nodded: "It's not that the subordinates are too suspicious, but the situation at this time can't allow the subordinates to think more." Liyin Cang is where Gao Kaitai's army is located, and he sent Yan Zeng to lead heavy troops to defend it, but although Yan Zeng defended very tightly when he attacked Liyin City, it seemed to be easier when he surrendered later. When forcibly crossing the Qin River, the lord sent Xiahou to attack and Yan Zeng to attack Lingmen Pass...... However, Yan Zeng used the Lingmen Pass as an excuse that it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but he only besieged the city pass and did not attack. ”

Wu Yiyi's face sank: "In this way, it's really a little suspicious." ”

He looked at Fang Jie: "According to reason, after the lord won Yan Zeng, he went all the way to the north unimpeded, and Yan Zeng persuaded the guards of seven or eight cities along the way to open the door and surrender. He can say that he can move these people, why does he say that he doesn't move the thousands of defenders at the Spirit Gate? At that time, I couldn't see anything important about Lingmen Pass, and the army couldn't go north, so it didn't matter whether it was attacked or not. But now, the key point of the spiritual gate is revealed. Yan Zeng did not attack the Lingmen Pass, and he told the lord that it was impossible to persuade the defenders of the Lingmen Pass to surrender...... It's not intentional. ”

"And ......"

Dugu Wenxiu added: "Now it seems that not only Yan Zeng is suspicious, but also those Gao Kaitai's subordinates who he persuaded to surrender along the way are also suspicious. It was so smooth along the way, so smooth that it was a little more than expected. It would not be long before the generals defending the city would open the door and surrender. ”

Fang Xie shook his head: "What you two said makes sense...... But you have forgotten one thing. ”

"What?"

Wu Yiyi asked.

"The premise is that if all this is Gao Kaitaibu's game, then Gao Kaitai has colluded with the Meng Yuan people a long time ago. Since he has colluded, why does he have to fight so hard in Qinhe? Tens of thousands of troops were killed in battle, and this loss was not small for him. If he wants to block my Black Flag Army south of the Qin River, so that he can encircle with the wolf riders in the future...... That doesn't make sense, if that's the case, he won't divide his troops to guard the Qin River, but place most of his troops north of the Qin River, and desperately won't let us come. ”

Dugu Wenxiu was slightly stunned after hearing this, and then nodded: "What the lord said makes sense." ”

He looked at the map, frowned and pondered for a while before saying, "That's true, if Gao Kaitai and the Mengyuan people have already colluded, then he should personally lead troops to deploy defenses north of the Qin River." ”

"I don't want to suspect a subordinate easily."

Fang Xie stood up and said slowly: "Yan Zeng is a demoted general, but he is now a member of the Black Flag Army. If I had to choose between doubting him or trusting him, I would rather have the latter. ”

Fan Gu

The young man picked up something and looked at it carefully, shaking his head: "Master, what is this?" ”

Mr. Nine glanced at it and shook his head: "I've lived here for several years, and I don't know what this place is, let alone what the things here are for. After I returned to the Moon Shadow Hall to become Mr. Nine, I returned to live here for two years, and it was only by chance that I figured out what one of these things could do. ”

"Is it what Master, you gave to the other Heavenly Monarchs?"

"Hmm"

Mr. Nine nodded: "I found a lot of books in a stone door over there, and I wanted to flip through them to see if it helped, but when I held those books, they turned to dust." Last time, I brought a few of you here, but you were the only one who had the most ideas about what to do here, so I'll bring you here again. ”

The young man nodded: "Thank you for Master's appreciation, I will definitely work harder." ”

He walked to a strange-looking cabinet, looked at it carefully, and shook his head: "This thing should be composed of an extremely cumbersome structure, and even my original master may not be able to unravel it." This is supposed to be a hidden lock, but to open the door requires more than just a key, it should require some other means. ”

His original master was a locksmith.

A well-known locksmith, the trap box created by his master, few people in the world can open it. The boy had shown a talent for this since he was a child, and by the time he was seven years old, anything his master had built could not stop him.

"So I'm going to keep you here."

Mr. Nine pointed to the distance: "You can rest assured that you are here to refer to these things, and I will stay to protect you." In the future, your diet and daily life will be taken care of by a few of them. You don't need to worry about eating and drinking, they will take care of it for you. ”

"What about you?"

The teenager asked.

"I still have something very important to do, and since I have returned to the light with the Moon Shadow Hall, what I want is not a momentary light, but an eternal light. I have now calculated the Mengyuan people, Gao Kaitai, and the Black Flag Army, let them fight the three parties, the more tragic the fight, the better, and the most powerful one is my Moon Shadow Hall. The Moon Shadow Hall has been in the dark for more than 200 years, and it is only under my rule that it has begun to improve. Since God has entrusted me with this, I will do it well. What's more, one of the opponents this time is still an old acquaintance from the past, how can I stay out of it again? ”

"But Master...... I'll be scared if I'm left alone. ”

"You are a man, and a man can be afraid but not back down. No one is not afraid, and even I have something to fear. But if we retreat from what we are afraid of, we will achieve nothing. ”

Mr. Nine said seriously: "Your talent is here, and the success of the Moon Shadow Hall in the future may be on you." ”

"Okay......"

The boy hesitated for a moment and asked, "What if I accidentally break something?" ”

Mr. Nine couldn't help but laugh: "If you don't break it, we don't know what these things are for." So it's no different from breaking it and not knowing how useful it is, but as long as you find something useful, it will help me a lot. I won't blame you even if you break all the stuff in this place. ”

"That's good."

The boy smiled, a little silly.

Mr. Nine shook his head: "When I'm done with this big thing, I'll come over to see you." ”

With that, he turned and walked out.

"San Lang will be handed over to you, if San Lang has any accidents, you don't have to go back to see me. Remember, if there is one of you still alive, Saburo can't die. The future of the Moon Shadow Hall may be here, as long as the role of this place can be clear, it is not a dream for the Moon Shadow Hall to turn the sect into an empire. When the time comes, you will all be meritorious men, and you know the Tao, I will never be stingy with rewards. ”

"Don't worry, the ninth master, the third young master will be handed over to us."

Mr. Nine nodded, and then looked back at the young man named San Lang: "An Anxin is here to read these things, and I will surprise me when I come next time." ”

"Master!"

San Lang suddenly poked his head out of that room and shouted excitedly to Mr. Nine, "Master, I opened that door and found this thing from inside." It's just that I don't know what Lu Dao does, and this cabinet is full of this thing. The cabinet is very well sealed, so the contents are very well preserved. ”

Mr. Nine couldn't help laughing, and he knew that he was not wrong. He had staked all the future achievements of the Moon Shadow Hall on Saburo, and Saburo did not disappoint him. He walked over there, and looking at the excited expression on Saburo's face, his heart, which had not fluctuated for a long time, also became excited.

"This thing shouldn't be difficult, it should be much easier to use than the thing you found, Master. There's a pull tab here, so many of the same things are obviously often used, this pull tab is just for ease of use, I try to see if I can pull it open, maybe there will be unexpected changes after pulling it open. ”

Saburo spoke, pulling the tab open from the outside of the round thing.

As soon as he let go, something fell from it with a click. Saburo looked down, but before he could straighten up...... The thing in his hand exploded, and the huge explosion directly tore him to pieces. The scene was so abrupt and shocking that Mr. Nine, who was walking this way in the distance, was completely stunned.

He raised his hand to block the flying debris.

Just look at the stump and severed arm in that place...... Saburo, who was smiling smugly at him a second ago, turned into a puddle of meat at this time.

"It's ...... Providence? ”

Mr. Nine looked there, his body trembling involuntarily.
