Chapter 356: The Coming Pasture
About a pillar of incense, Meng Cai gathered the cavalry team, gathered back to Long Tao, more than 600 thieves, all chased and killed, the efficiency of the old Sui Xiao Guowei was really extraordinary, and everyone in the ranch who could see it was also secretly talking.
Liang Zhi and other people from Pegasus Ranch led the way, and the army left the village and headed southwest.
Not long after, turning to the official road, a long dragon of torches appeared in the distance ahead, and the sound of horses' hooves galloping came, Liang Zhi knew that the army of Pegasus Ranch had arrived, for fear of misunderstanding between the two sides, he confessed to Long Tao and led his men to meet him.
Long Tao waited with the army.
After a while, the sound of hooves came, and Liang Zhi and Shang Xiuxun rode their horses over, followed by more than a dozen ranch children, some holding torches, illuminating the surroundings.
Shang Xiuxun rode a tall white horse, wearing bright silver armor, a blue cloak floating behind him, and a red hero scarf on his head.
Under the light of the fire, her dreamy big eyes added to the mysterious beauty, and her peerless appearance made the thousands of soldiers behind Long Tao involuntarily hold their breath.
Although it was not the first time Long Tao had seen her, he still had an amazing feeling that was difficult to calm down.
Shang Xiuxun stopped his horse and looked at Long Tao with a little surprise.
Liang Zhi was half a horse's head behind her, and just wanted to introduce the two sides, Shang Xiuxun had already spoken: "It turns out that what kind of Divine Sword King is, it is really you." ”
Long Tao smiled: "Hello owner, we meet again." ”
Shang Xiuxun shook his horse's head, rushed into the field beside the road, and shouted: "You come with me, I have something to ask you!" ”
Long Tao rode his horse and followed.
The two of them galloped straight to a small stream before stopping.
Shang Xiuxun asked, "Where did the old guy go?" ”
Long Tao replied: "Senior Lu has already left this world. ”
Shang Xiuxun's expression froze, and then she turned her face to look at the stream, as if she didn't want Long Tao to see her expression, "He...... How are you going? ”
"Very well, it can be said that it got its wish." Long Taoxin said, I personally sent him away, can it be bad.
"Got your wish?" Shang Xiuxun turned his head to look at him, "What do you mean?" ”
"Senior, his old injury recurred, and he knew that his time was running out, and he had been waiting for this day for a long time."
"I see." Shang Xiuxun sighed lightly, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at him and said, "How did you meet him?" ”
Long Tao thought to himself, this question has to be answered well, because in Shang Xiuxun's opinion, Lu Miaozi has been hiding in the pasture, if he has never gone out, how can he know Long Tao? Even if he goes out secretly, he should hide his appearance and go to some places where others can't recognize him.
"Well, I met in a casino."
"This old man really went out secretly!" Shang Xiuxun snorted lightly and continued to ask, "When and where did you meet him?" ”
Long Tao secretly calculated the time, Lu Miaozi only swore not to leave the comfort nest after Shang Xiuxun's mother died, and replied: "About four years ago, in Yangzhou." ”
"Finally, the old guy didn't break his promise." Shang Xiuxun nodded, "Were you always with him when he died, did you leave anything for you?" ”
"A few books that record what he has learned in his life, and some delicate little things, do you want to read them?"
"I don't look at his stuff!" Shang Xiuxun shook his head firmly, was silent for a moment, and said: "My mother often said that Lu Miaozi is extremely smart, arrogant by nature, and never looks down on people, how can the old guy take a fancy to you and pass things on to you?" ”
Long Tao rolled his eyes, touched the short beard on his chin, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "Senior Lu is good at observing people, he said that I have the appearance of an emperor, so he will leave a lifelong study to help me." ”
"What?!"
Shang Xiuxun's eyes widened, staring at him, her long eyelashes blinking slightly, even in surprise, those intoxicating eyes still seemed to contain the most charming dreams, which attracted Long Tao's mind, and couldn't help but stare at her.
After a while, Shang Xiuxun sneered, "No wonder you dare to be the king and hegemon, it turns out that you believe in the nonsense of this kind of charlatan!" ”
"Huh!" Long Tao said proudly: "I believe in the vision of Lu seniors!" ”
Shang Xiuxun couldn't help but laugh when he saw his serious appearance, "Believe your big-headed ghost!" I didn't think you had the appearance of an emperor. Divine Sword King? It doesn't look like a serious emperor when you hear this name! After saying that, I couldn't help but cover my mouth and laugh again.
Long Tao looked at her moving appearance blankly, speechless for a while.
Shang Xiuxun's face was slightly red, he returned to a cold demeanor, nodded, and said, "However, looking at what your Divine Sword Army has done, you are also like a benevolent and righteous king!" ”
Long Tao said happily: "I hope that the owner's Chrysostom is more spiritual than the magic eye of Lu's predecessors, and that Yan can become the emperor in the future, all thanks to the two of them!" ”
The corners of Shang Xiuxun's mouth twitched, and he laughed again, his pretty face tightened again, and he said with a tight smile: "I heard Deacon Liang say that you want to buy a horse from our ranch?" ”
Long Tao nodded and said, "Yes, I brought 50,000 taels of gold this time, and I want to buy a batch of high-grade war horses from the owner." ”
Shang Xiuxun said: "According to the price of our ranch, 50,000 taels of gold can buy 5,000 high-grade war horses, for the sake of the Divine Sword King who saved Deacon Liang, the owner of this farm can make an exception to give you 8,000 horses, this is a preferential price that the ranch has never had!" ”
"Then Yan Mou thank you to the owner for his love!"
"When are you going to pick up the horse?"
"There is no urgency in this matter, the war horse can be placed in the pasture first." Long Tao shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Yan is here, in fact, there is still a big thing to do. ”
Shang Xiuxun asked, "What else is going on?" ”
"I'm going to remove the threat of Pegasus Ranch for the owner of the farm and destroy the four big cowards!"
Shang Xiuxun was startled, stared at him for a while, shook his head and said, "Just with your thousand soldiers and horses?" Do you know that there are as many as 30,000 thieves under Cao Yinglong's command alone, and you are simply hitting a stone with an egg! ”
Long Tao said with a smile: "The soldiers are not expensive, no matter how many thieves there are, they are just a group of rabble, as long as we plan well, it is not impossible to break it in one fell swoop, and this thousand people are just my vanguard troops, the reason why the owner wants to leave the horses in the pasture first, is to wait for my reinforcements to arrive, and then configure them into cavalry." What's more, this matter is the last wish of Senior Lu before his death, how can Yan not complete it for him? ”
Shang Xiuxun was very moved when he heard it, and when he heard the last sentence, his face changed, and he said coldly: "I don't want to be favored by the old guy!" ”
Long Tao secretly scolded himself for not making up Lu Miaozi with more mouths, and immediately said solemnly: "Then Yan Mou is for himself, Yan Mou wants to eliminate the four great Kou no matter what, in order to establish the prestige of our Divine Sword Army!" ”
Seeing that Shang Xiuxun began to groan, Long Tao continued: "I only ask the owner one thing, are the four big Kou the biggest threat to Pegasus Ranch? It is a matter of the survival and interests of the ranch, is it necessary for the owner to care about the grievances with Lu's predecessors? ”
Shang Xiuxun first shouted in a low voice: "How can the master of this field use you to teach a lesson? Then his expression slowed, "However, what you said also makes sense, for the future of the ranch, we can indeed cooperate, what are your plans?" ”
Long Tao was overjoyed in his heart, and said with a smile: "I have received definite news, the four great thieves will launch an attack on the ranch in the near future, and when the time comes, we can plan and lure the snake out of the hole, and destroy the four thieves in one fell swoop, and the remaining thieves will be dispersed." Can the owner arrange for my men to stay at the ranch temporarily, and we will slowly discuss the details of the operation. ”
Shang Xiuxun glanced at him and said, "Your men and horses must be stationed outside the ranch, as for your Divine Sword King, if you are willing to come to the ranch to stay, the owner of this field will treat you as a distinguished guest!" ”
"It's up to the owner."
A thousand cavalry were stationed in the field outside the eastern entrance of the Pegasus Ranch, and Long Tao himself lived in the inner fort of the ranch as he wished.
The whole ranch knew that he was the Divine Sword King who had come to help deal with the Four Great Kou, and treated him as a guest.
Shang Xiuxun arranged him to the comfort nest where Lu Miaozi lived, which made Long Tao feel that although this big beauty likes to put on the main shelf, she is still very understanding in her heart.
Long Tao took the opportunity to discuss with her and gradually became acquainted with this peerless beauty who had the color of captivating the country and the city.
