Chapter 536: Secret

"Secret?"

Xu Rui frowned.

Li Kuang nodded and said, "It's a secret."

But there are often all kinds of strange stories in dangerous places, either demons and monsters, or fairy treasures, and Guangjin Yiwei will receive hundreds of similar messages every year, of which nine out of ten are groundless nonsense.

In the past two years, rumors of peerless treasures appearing in the 800-mile Hanhai Desert have been rampant, and at first we all thought that this was another story made up by some good deed, until Wuliji's 300,000 troops invaded Tianqi Pass. ”

"This matter is even related to the grassland?"

Xu Rui was stunned.

Li Kuang nodded, and shook his head again: "It shouldn't have anything to do with the grassland, but it has something to do with Tianqi Pass." ”

Xu Rui was taken aback: "You mean the dragon map?" ”

Li Kuang nodded and said: "Yes, Wuliji unified the grassland and plotted against Tianqi Pass, in addition to the weak military strength of the Northwest Border Army, the main reason why Longtu was defeated so badly was that when Wuliji committed the border, Longtu's main energy and the most elite army were not in Tianqi Pass at all!" ”

"What?"

Xu Rui's face changed slightly, and he said, "His army shouldn't be in this eight-hundred-mile Hanhai Gobi, right?" ”

"That's right!"

Li Kuang nodded: "It's Hanhai Gobi!" ”

He sneered and said, "Long Tu colluded with that ghost-faced demon god in New Territories City, led a large army and horse bandits deep into the Gobi, and it is said that he found a treasure!" ”

"You wait......"

Xu Rui rubbed his sore temples and said, "So, the reason why Long Tu was able to level all the Jinyi Guards and Dongchang Fanzi of Tianqi Pass is also because of this treasure?"

What kind of treasure can make these old men and adults become a monolith, even regardless of their lives, and the country is in danger? ”

Li Kuang's face darkened when he heard this, and he shook his head helplessly: "I don't know, originally this matter was handled by Longtu, but Wuliji's 300,000 iron cavalry convicts made it impossible to hide the defeat of Tianqi Pass."

Before this incident, the imperial court did not even receive any rumors, and the fact that Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi were bought by them was also exposed.

You also know that our Jinyi Guard's internal family law is very strict, and this kind of thing must be investigated to the end, so I took great pains to secretly tie up the Jinyi Guard Lieutenant of Tianqi Pass. ”

Xu Rui said: "You learned from him the information that Long Tu was not in the station when Tianqi Pass was defeated, but when he asked specifically about the information related to the treasure, he didn't open his mouth, right?" ”

Li Kuang nodded helplessly.

Xu Rui was puzzled: "You Jinyiwei also have mouths that can't be opened?" ”

A trace of green air flashed on Li Kuang's face, and he sneered: "Of course there is, who can let a dead man speak?" ”

Xu Rui suddenly said: "Silenced? ”

Li Kuang nodded and said, "The day after that person was taken back to the capital, he died in the edict prison. ”

Xu Rui's face turned gloomy: "It seems that there are many forces involved in this matter, and Long Tu alone may not be able to reach out to a place like the Imperial Prison." ”

"You're right again."

Li Kuang nodded and said, "The Holy Lord just noticed that this matter was warping, so he issued a holy decree and asked me to rush to the northwest directly from the southern line without stopping." ”

Saying that, Li Kuang was slightly stunned and said, "By the way, shouldn't you take the Apocalypse Guard to escort the princess out of the fortress, why are you here?" ”

Xu Rui smiled bitterly: "Don't mention it, when I encountered a sandstorm and earthquake, I happened to be separated from the army, and I don't know what the situation of the Apocalypse Guard is now." ”

As he spoke, Xu Rui seemed to suddenly remember something, and said hurriedly: "How many people are you here?" ”

When Li Kuang heard this, he immediately became vigilant: "Jinyiwei's entire network in the northwest has been destroyed, and the only people who can be trusted are the newly sent ones, about twenty people, what are you going to do?" ”

"Only about 20 people ......"

Xu Rui groaned slightly: "Although there are not many people, it is basically enough, you stop what you are doing now, and quickly help me contact Tianqiwei." ”

"What? No, absolutely not! ”

When Li Kuang heard this, he immediately shook his head like a rattle.

"Jinyiwei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and we have been ordered by holy order this time, if we contact the Apocalypse Guard for you privately, it will be equivalent to public weapons for private use, and it is not a good thing for you or me!"

"What are you thinking?"

Xu Rui couldn't help but laugh and said: "This ghost-faced demon god is said to be comparable to a martial saint, and there is the support of Longtu or even greater forces behind it, just with your twenty people, don't say that you don't want to find out anything at all, even if you can really find out, do you think they will let you leave alive?" ”

Li Kuang's breath was suffocated, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Xu Rui continued: "Also, if my expectations are correct, the reason why the Holy Lord sent you here to explore the secret of what treasure is false, and it is true to solve the situation in the northwest."

It seems that a king who is so rich in the world as the Holy One must have limited interest in any treasure that is rumored to be false, and what he wants to solve must be the dragon figure who is entrenched in the northwest and already has an anti-will, as well as the greater forces behind him! ”

Li Kuang smiled bitterly: "I really can't hide anything from you, you are right, I came this time to collect information for the saint first, the saint wants to figure out the details of the dragon map first, and then rip off this tumor." ”

Xu Rui shook his head and sighed: "In the face of great shame and humiliation, you can still slowly figure it out, the Holy Lord has really managed to govern a big country like cooking a small fresh, but it's a pity that it's much better to cut through the mess quickly in this matter." ”

"Oh, you dare to find even the stubble on the saint, what kind of insight do you have?"

Hearing Xu Rui say this, Li Kuang suddenly became interested.

Xu Rui glanced at Li Kuang, and said angrily: "How can this be called finding fault?" Long Tu controlled the northwest gate, and threatened the saint with the 300,000 grassland iron horses of Wuliji, so that the saint would throw a rat bogey, and the saint would definitely not be able to swallow this breath.

At the same time, if you want to solve the problem of the grassland, you must first remove this cancer, otherwise the rear will be restless, not only will you not be able to let go of your hands and feet to deal with the evil wolf on the grassland, but you will also be attacked from both sides and be limited to danger.

At present, the Apocalypse Guard has reached the Eight Hundred Miles of Hanhai, and in a few months, he will arrive at the grassland, and the opportunity to solve the trouble of the grassland is fleeting, and the tumor of Longtu must not stay! ”

Li Kuang nodded when he heard this: "But the northwest is now the world of Longtu, and now there is a ghost-faced demon god, the saint has to guard against the Southern Dynasty, and he can't alarm Longtu, so it is impossible to send troops to the northwest in a grand manner, with our current strength, how can we shake this tumor?" ”

"That's why we need the Apocalypse!"

Xu Rui said bitterly: "You help me contact Tianqiwei, and I will help you solve the dragon map, this is not your Jinyi Wei's private use, but you and I join forces to win more with less!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Kuang was really moved, paced back and forth in the secret room for a few steps, and then leaned in front of Xu Rui and asked, "In that case, why don't we just withdraw from the dangerous place of New Territories City and go to find the Apocalypse Guard together?" ”

Xu Rui shook his head: "No, the Holy Lord is not interested in the secret of the Eight Hundred Miles of Hanhai, but we can't be uninterested, everything is because of the so-called treasure, don't you wonder what the treasure is, and who is the force behind it?" ”

Li Kuang frowned: "Of course I want to know, didn't you ask me to stop all the investigations and help you find the Apocalypse, why are you asking me again now?" ”

Xu Rui shook his head and smiled: "I want all the fish and bear paws, you go to Tianqiwei, and I will find a way to figure out the secret of the eight hundred miles of Hanhai." ”

Li Kuang was stunned: "Do you have an idea again?" ”

Xu Rui nodded and said: "Since the treasure was made by Long Tu and the Ghost Face Demon God together, we can't go to Long Tu now, so we can only start from that Ghost Face Demon God, and this is what I have been thinking about all the way!" ”

"What do you want to do?"

Li Kuang asked.

Xu Rui smiled: "Tonight is the Great Battle for the Moon, that ghost-faced demon god should appear, right?" ”

Li Kuang frowned: "Do you want to take him down directly?" ”

Xu Rui rolled his eyes: "This is someone's territory, and you can only outwit him, but as long as he appears, I will have a way to get to his bottom." ”

Li Kuang finally suddenly realized when he heard this, but his face did not warm up in the slightest, and he said in a deep voice: "There is one thing I have to remind you, that ghost-faced demon god is probably even more terrifying than you think, it is said that no matter what enemy he is dealing with, including the first-class masters who are only a line away from the martial saint, he only uses one move. ”

"Another trick?"

Xu Rui frowned: "Even if it is a martial saint, I have never heard of all enemies who can end with just one move......"

Li Kuang nodded: "So you have to understand that the opponent we are going to face is very likely to be a Martial Saint, or even an existence stronger than a Martial Saint." ”

Xu Rui's face gradually sank when he heard this.
