6. Interlude: Land of Fire

I haven't seen her for many years, and I didn't expect that Miss Mink still hasn't completely faded away from the innocence she once had.

It's a little stupid, but it looks cute, so it's called stupid.

The stupid and cute Miss Mink is so cute that people can't help but want to laugh out loud.

Although Li Shushi will not directly discourage Miss Mink's enthusiasm, he does not think that the other party's idea has any possibility of being realized.

You must know that Zhang Lu may be a Taoist, but Hanzhong can become an independent kingdom in today's troubled times, it may be a bit far-fetched to say that Zhang Lu's credit is completely true, but there is no doubt that Zhang Lu realized his personal ambition with the help of Liu Yan's ambition.

Judging from his performance in another plane of history, perhaps at the end of the road, this Taoist patriarch who could be as famous as Zhang Jiao at the end of the Han Dynasty would not choose to fight to the end like Liu Bei and Cao Cao, but as long as the situation did not develop to that point, he would not take the initiative to surrender.

Not to mention that the interest groups that follow him will not allow such a situation to happen either.

Even if Zhang Yi and Su Qin are resurrected, it will take a lot of effort to deal with these complex relationships, can a mere Miss Mink really be more powerful than those who are vertical and horizontal and eloquent? Even if Miss Mink has already taken up the position of a religious god, but the rookie with a low level and few skill points has already been killed by Zhang Lu in seconds just because of the theoretical foundation, not to mention other problems.

It's just that seeing Miss Mink's rather confident expression, Li Shushi feels that it may not be a good choice to refuse directly, even if he already has a wife and a house, this kind of lonely thing is not a good thing to do, let alone just listen to the other party's plan, and it will not waste too much time. And after hearing it, it seems more reasonable to refuse.

Or, as just envisaged, you can choose to agree to the other party, but the other party also needs to pay a certain price, and in this way, no matter what plan Li Shushi has, the possibility of the other party accepting it will be greatly increased.

Ahem. Those sperm worms thought that Li Shushi was going to drag the little girl to the bed to face the wall.

Although the current Miss Mink has indeed faded from her original youth and become more feminine, with a seductive atmosphere between her smile and smile, but when she is in this tent, surrounded by three beautiful women with the same national color and fragrance, the eye-catching beauty has also become mediocre, and even makes Li Shushi feel like "it is still the best Lori of his own".

Although Li Shushi's idea was good, he soon realized that he still seemed to underestimate a certain girl who had been traveling for years.

"I've had many conversations with Zhang, apart from those academic conversations. There are some other aspects discussed. It can be seen that Zhang Lu doesn't think that an independent kingdom like himself can last long, so as long as there are suitable conditions, it is not difficult to convince him. As for the other forces that may become obstacles, it is the Yang family and Zhang Lu's younger brother Zhang Wei. The Yang family has Yang Song, this guy is a money-grubber, as long as he can pay a lot of money to bribe him, the entire Yang family can solve it. You, the governor of the state, should not lack this thing. As long as Zhang Lu and the Yang family are dealt with, Zhang Wei will not be able to become a climate. Others are even less of a concern. ”

"Anyway, this plan...... Isn't it too basic? ”

"Sister Yu told me that you have a large group of strategists called 'staff officers', and what you do is to refine those simple ideas into detailed plans, you can just hand them over to them."

Su Xiao Lori, you pit me!

It's a pity that Li Shushi's angry eyes are not lethal to a certain Lori who is still in a state of watching the play, and even because of Li Shushi's expression, a certain Lori is very happy. also continued to "tease" Li Shushi's "fragile" nerves by whistling.

But should I say that it really deserves to be my own Lori, and the whistle can also make Li Shu's heart ripple.

Ahem, it's still working time, you can't get distracted, you can't get distracted.

"Okay. Your idea is good and deserves to be recognized. But even if Zhang Lu really had the foresight to know that this troubled era could not last, and his independent kingdom could not always exist, how can you guarantee that his request is acceptable to us? And that Jansson, since he is a greedy person, a person who is so greedy that he has no bottom line, then you can guarantee that he will not break his previous agreement at a certain point for the sake of his greed, because he will ask for more and more. As long as greed cannot be contained, then even infinite wealth cannot be satisfied, you say. And it's just two people, and I don't know how many variables there will be in this plan, and how much it will take to join the state army because of these variables. For the sake of the people of Hanzhong County, I have to make the Bingzhou army pay such a huge price, and those costs can make the people under my rule have a better life, let them get more education, and even arm an army that is enough to solve the Hanzhong problem, so that I can take the initiative on this issue, instead of passively resigning myself to fate now. So I'm sorry, if your plan is such a simple idea, I'm afraid it's hard for me to agree to you. ”

"Can't you just give it a try?"

"Soldiers, treacherous. The only consequence of rash contact with the enemy without all preparedness can only be to make the enemy vigilant, and even to create superfluous hostility, which will be a disadvantageous factor in the future when we act against Hanzhong, if we have such a plan. Even if there is no such plan, this kind of action that can easily provoke hostility on the other side is not a good choice, and you should know this firsthand, if there is hostility between the two sides, then it is difficult to carry out trade, and when the benefits obtained cannot offset the various troubles along the way, then the result is that the merchants are discouraged. ”

"But ......"

"Your idea is very good, I also hope that there will be fewer people affected by the war, and I have to say that Zhang Lu has done quite well in Hanzhong. In a way, Zhang Lu has achieved some of your father's ideals, even if these achievements are difficult to promote, but he is undoubtedly a practitioner and a practitioner worthy of respect. ”

Well, Miss Mink looks stupid and cute, as if she is asking Li Shushi. Obviously, she was so critical of her proposal just now, why is she changing her face now? It seems that Li Shushi's performance hurt the little girl very much.

Well, acting should be measured, not overdone, and not burlesque, and there is no need for that kind of overly exaggerated performance.

I adjusted my mentality. Li Shushi finally showed his fox face.

"So you might as well integrate your ideas into the grand strategy of the Bingzhou Army, led by the Bingzhou Army, and wait until the situation is to the point where those people can think about the problem soberly, and then you will come forward, I believe that the probability of success should be much higher, and it will not affect the lives of the people in Hanzhong, so that they have to leave their homeland because of the war."

After thinking about it again and again, Miss Mink finally nodded at Li Shushi as if she had suddenly realized. That stupid and cute, even a little bit of admiration, really makes Li Shushi feel like he is nibbling on a chilled watermelon on dog days.

It's just that......

Why do you always feel as if something is not quite right, and you seem to have forgotten something important?

Li Shushi was in deep contemplation, and at the same moment......

"Sister Jade, Sister Jade, Diao Chan is very powerful~~~" Miss Mink's excited voice came from her ears, just by listening to the voice, you can know how excited the owner of the voice is now.

It's not hard to see why. Although the original plan did not get Li Shushi's support, she is still a very important part of Li Shushi's plan. And being able to let the people of a county continue their originally peaceful life with her efforts is indeed to live up to her plea to lower her figure so much in front of Li Shushi.

Wait a minute!!!

And just when Li Shushi felt as if he had caught something......

"Uh-huh. It's done well, I can give you 10 points this time, and it seems that this lap has really improved a lot. Of course, you can't become complacent because of this small progress, after all, the creature of the husband is only a beginner difficulty, if you just defeat the husband lord, you will underestimate the heroes of the world. Then even if you are sold in the future, you may have to thank the person who sold you. ”

"Yes, Ning'er has been taught, thank you Sister Yu for waking Ning'er up in time. In order to thank Sister Yu for her help, let Ning'er be Sister Yu's maid in the past few days, and honor Sister Yu well. ”

"Hmph~ I'm naughty again. Could it be that Ning'er, you plan to follow me all the time? ”

"Of course. Ning'er hasn't been with Sister Yu for a long, long, long time, she has been very bitter outside, if it weren't for Sister Yu's letters of encouragement and support, Ning'er really didn't know if she could survive it. So this time the opportunity is rare, Ning'er must replenish the 'Jade Sister Energy' well. ”

Anyway, what the hell is "Sister Jade Energy", Miss Mink, you were actually acting just now.

At this moment, Li Shushi deeply felt the malice from the world.

As for the evaluation that regarded him as a beginner's difficulty, Li Shushi didn't feel anything.

Hmph, stupid mortals, continue to despise me, and then you will be defeated by me one by one because of carelessness.

Well, this script feels quite emotional, even Long × will use the advanced strategy of "pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger" when necessary, and such an unfathomable feeling will make people more intimidating, but it is a woman's family and knows a basket.

As for the results of Li Shushi's thinking, it is beyond the scope of our discussion.

And the words that kept pouring into his ears, "Could it be that when I make love with my husband at night, Ning'er, you also want to participate" and other words prompted Li Shushi to decide to run away with oil on the soles of his feet.

Now is Su Xiaololi's lily time, even Li Shushi, who is her husband, avoids this kind of mouth (but) fear (pop) field, just the news provided by Miss Mink, Li Shushi is going to go to Jia Xu to confirm.

It's definitely not because the scene is so beautiful that Li Shushi bursts into tears because of envy, jealousy and hatred, absolutely not!

Because it's super important, if you want to say it a third time, it's definitely not!

It's a pity that Li Shushi didn't go far, and stopped because of a figure swept in the corner of his eye.

"Done?"

"I can only say that I have completed the preliminary preparations, and there are still many things left, so I need your help."

"Like when you were on that northern glacial lake?"

"It's not wrong if you think so, I have to admit that I need to use some kind of 'power' that you have again."

"It's my pleasure, and it's really my luck to give it back so easily."

"Do you think you have a chance to repay the favor other than these things?"

"Nope. I don't think I'll even have a chance to owe you a favor. ”

"So how long do you need to prepare? Don't keep the lady waiting too long. ”

Feeling the expression emanating from the Yellow Dragon Girl, that rare, like a playful girl, there is really a feeling of a fairy descending to earth, even if you know that this is just a fleeting feeling, in most cases, the Yellow Dragon Girl will still be the one who seems to be friendly. In fact, she is a goddess who is extremely cold in her bones, but Li Shushi still can't help but feel a friend-like closeness to the Huanglong girl in this state, and thinks that it would be good if the two of them could become friends.

Of course, Li Shushi soon realized that this was just a delusion on his part.

Or after so many contacts, Li Shushi has considerable resistance to the temperament of a certain girl, so he can recover from a short period of distraction, and his brain is also restarted in an instant.

So, the rebooted brain reminded him that he now had a good opportunity. You can do something enough to make someone stomp their feet in anger, so that those little girls who treat him as a "junior monster" know that if a man doesn't have a lower limit of discipline, it will definitely be a very scary existence.

Well, it's such a happy decision!

Li Shushi felt that his current smile was definitely very much like a big demon king.

The world has shifted.

When the battle against the Yuan clan in Jizhou finally came to an end, the time had crossed the scorching heat, and the Biansai near the north had begun to feel the taste of autumn. The gentle breeze makes people feel the possibility of catching a cold if they are not careful.

Overall, though, the temperature is still on the hot side during this time of year. But the cool breeze of the night can already dispel the residual heat left by the sun.

Except for the place where Li Shushi and his entourage are now.

"What the hell is this place, why is it so hot, it's hot, it's hot, it's hot, water, who's going to give me a little water. I feel like I'm about to get grilled and dried......"

"It's almost baked into dried fish and still loves to talk so much, friendly reminder: you can save a lot of water by saying a few words."

"It's not all your fault!"

"Blame me~"

glared at Li Shushi fiercely, but our Miss Mink did not continue to fight with Li Shushi, although Li Shushi's ridicule made Miss Mink very angry, but she also had to admit it. Li Shushi is not wrong.

In such a place, any wanton waste of physical strength is no different from suicide, and the same is true of the waste of water. Although she appeared here completely because of Li Shushi's deception, in the final analysis, she was unwilling to give up this rare opportunity to be able to walk with the object of her secret love.

And if the organizers of this "trip" are unhappy because of their own noise, probably Miss Mink will not forgive herself.

The most important thing is that Miss Mink has confirmed in just a short time that in this team, Li Shushi's role is obviously extremely important, and Su Xiaololi obviously will not choose to leave Li Shushi, no matter what the reason. So if she really had a conflict with Li Shushi, then she would definitely be the only one who suffered in the end.

Hmph, the lady takes revenge, it's not too late for a month. When the time comes, from morning to night, it must make you look good!

Most of the night time is used to search for the target of the Yellow Dragon Maiden, because this is the only time suitable for ordinary people to act, at least at this time, the temperature of the outside world can be classified as "normal", even if Miss Mink will complain about the heat here from time to time, but compared to the daytime, the temperature of the outside world is definitely "touching" and "conscience of the industry".

Of course, this is the feeling of the first half of the night, and in the second half of the night, except for some non-humans, ordinary people are all dressed in winter clothes, although the temperature may not be so exaggerated, but the mountains blown up at night here seem to carry the ice and frozen air given by the distant snow-capped mountains, and when it blows through the human body, it will always make you have the illusion that your soul will be frozen together.

Li Shushi didn't know what the specific place was, as soon as his eyes were closed, the group came here.

Gobi, yellow sand.

The air here is unusually dry, as if no moisture can be preserved in this environment. After just staying here for an afternoon, Xiaoqiao Yan fell down from heat stroke, and his face like a blank sheet of paper really scared everyone.

In desperation, everyone can only choose to set up camp.

By the way, the location of the camp is located in a deep pit about twenty meters underground, and only at such a depth will the heat on the ground be blocked for the most part, even if the conditions are still very difficult, but it is much stronger than on the ground.

"If Lord Xuanwu is here at this time......

"Don't mention her to me, that dead little black won't come here with me, coward! Afraid of heat!! ”

Well, it is indeed difficult for some strong people to let the Xuanwu Emperor of the North come to this kind of place, as for the Vermilion Bird Girl who will definitely like it here......

"Are you sure that the fallen people are not enough, or do you want to accompany Xiaohong to roll on the hot sand, if you say a 'yes' word, I will meet your request immediately!"

As a result, this time, the Holy Beasts were the only ones left in the Yellow Dragon Maiden.

"So may I ask, what exactly are we looking for this time?"

The girl of Huanglong did not answer immediately, and Li Shushi, who had been looking at her, clearly saw a trace of confusion and ...... in the girl's eyes Sad. (To be continued......)
