After Zuo Yu listened to Xia Xinghai's story, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, how could he not have imagined that the new Heavenly Master who he and the others had been ordered to track down for a long time had always been by the princess's side?

"This is really good news, Your Majesty! With the help of Heavenly Master Wu Fan, our chances of winning against the Red Fire Kingdom this time will be increased!"

Zuo Yu was so excited that he couldn't help himself, if he hadn't taken Xia Xinghai by his side, he would probably have laughed out loud at this moment.

As we all know, generally speaking, there are only two factors that can determine the direction of a battle.

First, there are the mage legions and warrior legions of various countries, which are generally divided into a small army independently and will not be mixed with ordinary soldiers, which increases the risk of being 'cut off from one pot', but can greatly improve cooperation and coordination, and greatly increase the destructive power of the battlefield.

Overall, the pros outweigh the cons.

The importance of the Wizard Legion is higher than that of the Warrior Legion, and they are more threatening, and they are the key objects that various countries want to break and protect.

This is also the main determining factor in the wars of ordinary lower kingdoms. Generally speaking, the country with the largest number of mage legions and the higher the average rank, the country is basically victorious.

The second is the Heavenly Master.

Although the general Heavenly Master is in a neutral state and will not arbitrarily interfere in the war between the two countries, he can't stand some Heavenly Masters who are patriotic, so they have to join in the fun!

This is where the role of the Heavenly Master is particularly prominent!

Especially the higher the star of the Celestial Master, the stronger the sense of coercion and fear it brings to the enemy country!

The strength of the Heavenly Master is not only reflected in the strength of a single body, but more importantly, it is a series of hidden forces behind him!

For example, among the many students he has taught, several of them may be extremely talented, and they have become a generation of strong men, breaking through mountains and rivers, and one person is better than thousands of troops!

It could also be a huge impact of his sub-career.

Taking Wu Fan as an example, his current sub-profession is an alchemist, so he can work hard every day to refine the pill for the victory of the Tianchen Kingdom and become an alchemy tool man.

Although the level of the elixir he refined was not high, only one or two grades, it couldn't hold up the large amount!

Just imagine: when every ordinary soldier has a Quenching Pill, Healing Pill, and Juli Pill in his mouth...... What kind of scenario is this?

Not to mention the warriors and magicians holding better elixirs in their hands......

To put it simply, with the elixir, the comprehensive combat power of the Tianchen Kingdom will at least double!

As for the other sub-professions, such as alchemists, array mages, beast masters, spellmasters, etc., they play no less role than alchemists......

It's no wonder that Zuo Yu, who has always been steady, became so excited.

It's really Wu Fan's joining, which has helped them too much......

"Your Majesty, are you willing to let the princess follow Wu Fan Heavenly Master back to the academy, do you also have plans to get close to him?"

Zuo Yu suddenly figured this out, squinted his eyes and asked.

And he said!

Xia Xinghai, who has always loved his daughter like his life, will be willing to let Xia Ziyan leave him?

And it was a time when the situation was so critical......

It turns out that this is still hidden in my mind!

"Prime Minister Zuo, be a man and leave a line, see through it and don't say it. ”

Xia Xinghai tried his best to maintain his majestic appearance, but all of this was clear in Zuo Yu's eyes.

Sure enough, he was right!

"Your Majesty, the old minister ......"

Zuo Yu was just about to say something, when suddenly, he saw a strange thing on the desk where Xia Xinghai was reviewing government affairs.

"Your Majesty, what is this?"

Zuo Yu pointed to Xia Xinghai's half-eaten spicy strips and asked.

Not good!

Xia Xinghai was suddenly startled, and he forgot to put it away!

He remembered that when he was a child studying with Zuo Yu, he was severely criticized for not being allowed to eat on the desk!

The pain of pumping his palm with a bamboo stick back then, he remembers it very well!

"I didn't ...... Nothing ......."

Xia Xinghai replied nervously, he also wanted to behave naturally, but there was no way!

The impression of childhood is so tragic!

"Really?"

Zuo Yu was acting like a teacher at this time, and he looked at Xia Xinghai's erratic eyes, and he understood that he must be fooling himself.

So, Zuo Yu walked straight to the desk, picked up the half-eaten spicy strips, felt the greasy touch in his hand, and sniffed it with his nose.

Immediately, a spicy and pungent smell rushed to his nostrils, making him can't help but sneeze!

"Your Majesty, you are actually eating at the desk again?! The old minister has said it countless times......

Zuo Yu was about to give Xia Xinghai another 'criticism of love', but was stopped by Xia Xinghai in time.

"Prime Minister Zuo, this snack is not an ordinary thing, it is a magical thing that cured General Gu's serious illness!"

Zuo Yu asked suspiciously, "Really?"

"It's true!"

Xia Xinghai nodded again and again, but he must not let Zuo Yu open this head, otherwise he would not have to do anything else this night.

Zuo Yu carefully looked at the spicy strip in his hand again, but no matter how he looked at it over and over, he always felt that it was just an ordinary snack!

It's just a little weird......

"Prime Minister Zuo can try it himself!" Xia Xinghai suggested.

Hearing this, Zuo Yu half-convinced and stuffed the rest of the general into his mouth and ate it.

"Huh?"

As soon as he put it in his mouth, he felt that his sense of taste, which he had gradually lost due to his age, suddenly became sensitive!

It's like you're back when you were young, and you're delicious!

The spicy and irritating sensation that enters the throat, the fragrance

The spicy sweetness, the unique taste that tickles the appetite......

Everything made Zuo Yu like a child, trying to swallow dates and eat the half of the spicy strips.

There's still something to be desired......

Zuo Yu, who was subconsciously about to lick his fingers, suddenly recalled that he was still in the palace, and immediately stopped this vulgar behavior.

His face flushed, ashamed of the thought that had just crossed his mind.

"It's done!"

Xia Xinghai, who was watching from the sidelines, was secretly happy when he saw Zuo Yu's appearance.

Now, Zuo Yu can't continue to hold him, right?

"Prime Minister Zuo, how does it taste?" Xia Xinghai said with a smile.

Zuo Yu replied a little embarrassed: "This thing has a complex taste, spicy with a hint of sweetness, the taste is flushing but not evil, the oil is more than greasy, and the aftertaste is endless after entering the stomach, which is a rare food!"

"Does Prime Minister Zuo still want to eat?" Xia Xinghai continued to ask.

Zuo Yu's face was a little unbearable, he didn't eat dinner tonight, he came to the palace on an empty stomach, it's okay not to eat this spicy strip, but now when he eats it, he is addicted!

"Want to ......"

In the end, appetite prevailed over face.

Anyway, there is no need to be overly polite in front of Xia Xinghai......

"That king gave Prime Minister Zuo ten packs, and please don't pursue Prime Minister Zuo's greed on the desk!" Xia Xinghai's eyes lit up, and he pursued after the victory.

Zuo Yu waved his sleeves angrily, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, as your teacher, how could the old minister ...... for just ten packs of spicy noodles?"

Before he finished speaking, he was blocked by Xia Xinghai's next sentence.

"Twenty packs! No more, no more king. ”

“...... Deal"

It smells so good!

......

The center of the Holy City.

Drunken Xiang Building.

It is the most drunken place in the Kingdom of Tianchen, where there are the most touching women, the most delicious food, and the most mellow wine, and it is a place that many men dream of going!

In a room.

"Come on, come on, drink!

Several young nobles were chatting and laughing at the wine table, they hugged each other left and right, and each of them had at least one beautiful girl by his side, and the girls were smiling and constantly catering to them.

"Have you heard of it? General Gu's strange illness was cured by a peculiar snack!"

One of the young men in a green shirt spoke, his face already red, and he seemed to be drunk.

"Hey, there are such strange things, we haven't heard of it, and I ask Wang Gongzi to tell you about it!"

The green-shirted young man sitting next to him shook his head and said, hearing that it was General Gu who was talking about, he couldn't help but sit up straighter, his eyes full of curiosity.

The young man who is called Wang Gongzi is actually the third son of Shangshu, named Wang Wenbo, who has not learned since he was a child, and only likes to get together with a group of fox friends and dog friends to talk about the world and drink and have fun.

Shang Shu disciplined him strictly five times, and even invited countless teachers to teach him, but he was driven away one by one.

Over time, Shangshu gradually lost hope in him and focused more time and energy on his other two sons.

Wang Wenbo saw that everyone's attention was attracted by himself, and he was happy, he liked the feeling of the stars and the moon and becoming everyone's focus!

"Here's the thing......"

Long.

After Wang Wenbo finished speaking, the green-shirted young man's hand holding the wine glass was a little unsteady, and he asked in surprise: "This is called a snack of spicy strips...... Is it really that amazing?"

"Naturally!"

Wang Wenbo nodded with great certainty, it took him a lot of effort to find out the news.

Ordinary people only knew that General Gu had a serious illness and was cured.

As for the inside story, nothing is known.

"Actually, it's nothing. According to the latest news, today His Majesty went to General Gu's mansion to offer condolences, and personally tried this spicy strip! It is said that even His Majesty liked it very much, and before leaving, General Gu gave His Majesty some ......"

Wang Wenbo broke out a bigger material, and all four were shocked!

"Wouldn't it......? Your Majesty likes it?"

The green-shirted young man had poured some of the wine out of his cup, but he didn't know it.

"Brother Zhao, why are you so suspicious of what I said today, do you have any evidence to prove that what I said is false?"

Wang Wenbo was a little unhappy, and he kindly shared the news with them, but Zhao Qinghua didn't believe in himself all the time.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Brother Wang, didn't I doubt what you meant......

Zhao Qinghua hurriedly explained that he didn't dare to offend Wang Wenbo, after all, his father's official rank was not as big as his father's.

"That's pretty much it. ”

Wang Wenbo muttered, and his anger subsided a little.

"In that case, isn't this spicy strip very miraculous? Not only can it cure diseases, but it is also delicious! If you can get some, you can give it to a powerful official, and maybe you can get a little benefit......

Zhao Qinghua said to himself, he has liked to exploit these loopholes since he was a child, and when he heard this, he sensitively smelled the opportunity inside.

"Huh, that's doable!"

Wang Wenbo's eyes lit up and he nodded in agreement.

But then he suddenly remembered something, and said a little deflated: "But we don't know where that herb shop is...... It is conservatively estimated that there are at least hundreds of herb shops in Shengchen City, and it is not easy to find......

"That's ......"

Zhao Qinghua fell into deep thought, not knowing what he was thinking.

The others quickly brushed aside the topic and continued to drink and have fun, and for a moment the room was filled with the sound of Feifei.

......

When Zhao Qinghua returned home, he did not lie on the bed to sleep, but was frowning and thinking about something.

"There is a vacancy for the four-grade official in the Ministry of Officials this year, if it is according to the normal process, it will not be my turn anyway, but if I can get this spicy strip and dedicate it to Shangguan, maybe I can win a chance......

"Look, no matter what, I must find this herb shop, this is my only chance!"

Zhao Qinghua secretly clenched his fists and swore in his heart.

"Someone!"

He shouted out the door.

Soon two people who looked like domestic servants walked in, knelt on the ground, and asked respectfully, "Childe, do you have any orders?"

"You send some more manpower to find me a herb shop that sells spicy strips in Shengchen City! If you don't have enough money, come to me and get it, you must be fast!" Zhao Qinghua said.

"Yes, Childe. ”

The two servants agreed, and then slowly withdrew.

......

The other side.

After sending Zuo Yu away, Xia Xinghai had just rested for a while, but someone asked for an audience again.

"Your Majesty, Principal He Hai of the Star Magic Academy has arrived!"

A duck-like voice came, and Xia Xinghai raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He Hai is ostensibly the principal of the Star Magic Academy, but in fact, he has another identity, the head of the Magician Legion of the Tianchen Kingdom!

This identity is extremely special, except for Xia Xinghai and Zuo Yu, no one else knows about it.

It is precisely because of this that He Hai will disappear for a while from time to time, going to the Red Fire Kingdom to connect with secret agents and exchange information.

He, the regimental commander, is not just sitting in the tent to command the mage legion, but more importantly, he is going deep into the enemy's army, personally finding out the first-hand information, and then formulating a response plan!

Generally, if there is no major emergency, He Hai will not take the initiative to come to Xia Xinghai in order to hide his identity.

"Could it be that there is something unusual on the side of the Red Fire Kingdom?"

Xia Xinghai was nervous and hurriedly met with He Hai.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed!"

He Hai respectfully leaned over and saluted.

"Hurry up, please!"

Xia Xinghai pulled He Hai up and asked anxiously, "What is the important matter for Principal He to come this time?"

He Hai saw the uneasiness on Xia Xinghai's face, and comforted: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, it's a good thing!"

"A good thing?!"

Xia Xinghai was stunned.

Before, if He Hai took the initiative to see him, it was all bad things!

Is the sun coming out in the west today?

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister has come up with a strategy that can greatly improve the combat strength of our magician legion, if it can be fully realized, presumably the Red Fire Kingdom will no longer be able to easily defeat us......" He Haidao.

"Tell me about it!"

Xia Xinghai said excitedly.

Ever since he learned that the Red Fire Kingdom intended to go to war, he was anxious to eat and sleep well, and he was thinking day and night about how to win, but he was at a loss.

In addition to Wu Fan's surprise......

Now that he learned from He Hai's mouth that he could enhance his strength, he was naturally overjoyed.

He Hai knows this person very well, he is a powerful magician who has been on the battlefield!

Experienced, resourceful, and meticulous.

Since he dared to say this, he must have been very sure in his heart.

"Your Majesty, please look!"

He Hai smiled slightly and took out a bicycle from the space ring.

It was the one he 'confiscated' by the lake!

I don't know if its former owner cried and fainted in the toilet......

Looking at the very strangely shaped two-wheeled vehicle in front of him, Xia Xinghai was stunned: "What is this?"

He Haidao: "Your Majesty, this is a bicycle, you can think of it as an automatic vehicle that does not need to rely on animal power. He had personally experimented with it, and it was fast riding, three points faster than a magician's normal run, and at the same time extremely labor-saving, and lasted for a long time, making it suitable for long marches. ”

"The most important thing is that if the Wizard Legion can fully master it, then it will be able to cast spells on the move!, which will significantly increase the efficiency of attacking and retreating in the battlefield, and will make it more difficult for enemy soldiers to be assassinated in close quarters, increasing the survival rate......"

He Hai completely told Xia Xinghai about his combat strategy about the combination of bicycles and magician legions, his heart was very excited, before he came to meet Xia Xinghai, he had already matured this combat strategy in his mind, and now he was spitting and talking, very confident.

And Xia Xinghai is also a king with a sense of the overall situation, he carefully thought about the strategy He Hai said, and his eyes gradually brightened.

This is very doable!

If it can be realized, it may become the key point to turn the tide of the battle!

"Can Principal He ride one or two now?" Xia Xinghai demanded.

"No problem, Your Majesty. "He Haidao.

Although it is a council hall, the site is very wide, nearly 100 meters long and 60 or 70 meters wide, which is enough to accommodate He Hai to ride a bicycle in it.

He Hai has only been in contact with bicycles for most of the day, and it stands to reason that ordinary people cannot master cycling in such a short period of time, but don't forget, He Hai is a powerful magician!

What does this mean?

It means that his spiritual power is extremely high, far from being comparable to ordinary people!

And what does high mental power mean?

It represents He Hai's rapid learning and adaptation to new things, on behalf of the ability to almost never forget, on behalf of abundant energy and strong ability to reflect!

So for him, mastering the bike is just a trivial trick.
