Episode 17 Knighthood
Xiaoyu County has long been run by the Blue Star Autonomous Group like an iron barrel, and the border area is full of border posts, so as soon as this royal envoy entered the territory of Xiaoyu County, he was discovered by the border soldiers and immediately reported to the headquarters of Blue Star Fort through the radio.

Upon receiving this news, the autonomous regiment immediately became vigilant, and Linda ordered to keep an eye on this person, and at the same time instructed the garrison regiments in various places to be on alert, and the three major corps were mobilized as quickly as if they were facing a great enemy.
The royal envoy did not know that he was coming, and had attracted the attention of the entire military force of Xiaoyu County, and just entered the territory of Xiaoyu County for a few miles, he met a team of patrolmen who came to interrogate, and quickly explained his intention. The patrol did not show any respect for the envoy because he was a royal monk, but unceremoniously "searched" him. How could such a royal envoy receive such "treatment", but he didn't dare to attack, after all, even if the Earth Realm Cultivator faced more than a dozen guns that could be activated at any time at close range, no one dared to make any rash moves.
Soon, Xiaoyu County issued instructions, and this patrol carefully escorted the "Messenger" to the direction of the headquarters of the county seat Blue Star Fort.
Along the way, this team of pilots deliberately avoided the densely populated areas of Xiaoyu County, the purpose of which was to prevent this outsider from discovering various modern factories and other facilities in Xiaoyu County. In fact, this royal envoy is indeed very dishonest, constantly using his spiritual sense to look around unabashedly, and he is very curious about Xiaoyu County. But even so, he didn't dare to swagger to check after all, and still didn't find more valuable information.
A few miles outside Xiaoyu County, Linda and Acen and several others were already waiting on an empty hill somewhere, and behind them stood a neat company of 100 people. This company has been following Linda to fight, although the soldier's cultivation is not high, but there is a terrifying murderous aura between the eyebrows, which people dare not despise.
Linda looked into the distance, and soon, a group of soldiers flew from that direction, it was none other than the royal envoy and the patrol who escorted him. When the royal envoy saw Lin Da and the others from a distance, his spiritual sense swept away, and a trace of horror suddenly flashed on his face, and he hurriedly flew in front of Lin Da and the others, and said to Lin Da: "Gui Xi, the envoy of the lower royal family, presumably this is Lord Lin, Lord Lin, right?"
"Don't dare! Lin Mou meets the special envoy! Welcome the special envoy to Xiaoyu County!" Lin Da smiled slightly, and replied without humility.
Although Gui Xi's official position was greater than Lin Da's, he had already discovered that Lin Da had advanced to the Dan Realm, how could he dare to show a look of slackness, and hurriedly said with some flattery: "Hehe! Lord Lin is exempt! Lord Lin's feat has already spread throughout the country, and even the imperial court was moved by Lord Lin's love for the people and heroic killing of the enemy, so he specially sent this official to visit, and when we meet today, it really deserves its reputation!"
It's just that at this time, when the country is in danger, in order to preserve the strength, he made an initiative and withdrew his troops from the Tianlun Peak position. I ask the Special Envoy to forgive me for this sin. Lin Da was unimpressed by the emissary's praise, and actually took the initiative to talk about his Dai army's evacuation of Tianlun Peak.
In any case, the army is still nominally an army belonging to the royal family, and he was ordered to guard Tianlun Pass, but he led the army to leave the position without authorization, and gave up the strategic place that was extremely important to the Gui State.
Although Linda is not afraid of the so-called punishment of the royal family, he does not believe that the royal family dares to do anything to him. After all, now that Linda has a heavy army, he has long been willing to betray, and even if the royal family wants to punish him, he will never take it seriously.
Sure enough, Gui Xi said indifferently: "Where! Although the position of Tianlun Peak is important, Lord Lin and his army are the foundation of the country. As long as the army is still there, our country has the hope of winning, and from this point of view, Lord Lin can be regarded as preserving the vitality of our army, which can really be regarded as a meritorious achievement!"
Linda sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be very happy. Since the royal family is unwilling to tear his face with him and not investigate his so-called guilt, this is also in line with his intentions. Linda bowed to Gui Xi and said, "Thank you for the royal family's forgiveness!
When the royal family heard of Lord Lin's feat, the government and the opposition were very shocked, and the three princes and Marshal Gui Su specially ordered the royal family to bring the royal family's edict in recognition of Lord Lin's military exploits. Lord Lin, listen up!" Gui Xi smiled and said the purpose of this trip.
Hearing this, Linda glanced at Arden and the others behind him, and then knelt down according to Gui Guo etiquette and listened to Gui Xi's proclamation.
Lin Aiqing was entrusted with the heavy responsibility of the royal army, defended the fortress of Tianlun Peak, defeated the Vietnamese army several times, and saved millions of Chinese people along the way, leaving the foundation for the royal family to destroy the enemy's counterattack. In order to show his meritorious service, Baron Lin Dalin was specially appointed as the candidate for the protection of the country, and he was appointed as the marquis, commanding the army of Xiaoyu County, and the commander of the Yaden was named the viscount..."
Gui Xi unfolded the edict and read it out one by one. When Lin Da and the others heard about it, they were extremely surprised.
I didn't expect the royal family to make this decision and give a lot of titles and titles to the generals of the mortal army! Not only was he made a marquis, but also Arden, Tang Long, Modern, Kangnai, Schroeder, Ivanov and others were also named viscounts, and some leaders of the Blue Star Autonomous Regiment and the original Scattered Cultivation Corps were also named barons. This group of ordinary mortals of the Gui Kingdom suddenly became nobles!
However, Lin Da also understood in his heart that the real reason why the royal family gave Lin Da and the others knights was naturally to entrap them. Now that the royal family is facing the disaster of extermination, the nobles are rebelling, the Vietnamese army is approaching the city, and under the internal and external troubles, in order to stabilize the situation, it is extremely wise to win over the mortal army that has become a giant and let it become its own thugs, so the royal family has made this move to turn over the knighthood.
Although the Fan Army has been regarded as an outcast by the royal family many times, after all, the royal family has ruled the Gui Kingdom for thousands of years, and the foundation of its ruling power is extremely strong. In order for Lin Da and the others to be recognized in the Gui Kingdom, they must first be recognized by the Gui clan, so the royal family is not afraid that a new force like the Fan Army will not accept their titles.
Lin Da and the others were surprised when they heard the royal edict, and they had to pretend to be excited on the surface, but they immediately had their own plans in their hearts. Now Fan Jun and Xiao Yu, although they are still nominally ruled by the royal family, are actually independent kingdoms, and all they need is a legitimate name. The title given to them by the royal family can justifiably occupy Xiaoyu County.
So, Linda immediately knelt down and thanked him and took the edict from Gui Xi.
"Congratulations to Lin Houye!" Gui Xi was very happy when he saw Lin Daken receiving the royal edict and seeing that the purpose of the royal family had been achieved.
"Lin is ashamed to receive this royal favor, and he will definitely do his best to help the royal family eradicate the traitors, drive out the Yue Kou, and revive the Gui Kingdom!" Lin Da said pretending to swear.
"Okay! With Lin Hougong's words, Xi will be relieved! In addition to the edict of reward, the royal family also has a military order to convey this time. Now that the Yue Kou soldiers are at the foot of Xiangcheng, and the rebels of the four clans are attacking from the rear, I hope that Lin Hougong will raise troops as soon as possible to assist the royal family to extinguish the rebels and live up to the trust of the royal family. ”
After speaking, Gui Lun handed a jade plate to Lin Da, who swept it slightly with his spiritual sense, which was a series of battle orders from the royal family to the mortal army, asking him to attack the city occupied by the Vietnamese army and the four clans in the near future, so as to cooperate with the unified action of the royal family and so on.
"Your Excellency, don't worry, we have long planned to send troops to serve the king and fight against the traitors, but we have not been instructed by King Gui, so we have not moved our troops, and now that we have received the king's order, we will never be entrusted with it!" Lin Da put away the jade plate and said solemnly.
Hearing Linda mention King Gui, a trace of strangeness flashed on Gui Lun's face, and he quickly regained his composure, and his momentary change did not escape Linda's meticulous eyes.
Seeing Lin Da's statement, Gui Xi was quite happy in his heart, and said: "Okay! Since the edict has been passed to Lin Houye, then Xi will no longer stay here, and he will immediately rush back to Xiangcheng!"
"Isn't the envoy going back here a little longer?" asked Linda.
"No! Lun has to go back to his life immediately! Don't bother Lin Houye. Gui Xi saw that the goal had been achieved, and he felt the strong momentum of Lin Da and the people behind him, and he felt uncomfortable staying for a moment longer, and he couldn't wait to leave immediately.
Lin Da showed a regretful expression on his face, and said: "That's too credible, I thought I could have a few more drinks with the envoy and ask for some advice on government affairs!
"What is this?" Gui Xi looked at the brocade box handed over by Lin Da with some confusion, opened it slightly, and suddenly showed a surprised expression on his face.
"It's... This is a three-hundred-year-old Lingzhi fruit!Is Lin Houye going to give me such a precious thing!" Gui Xi asked with some incredulity.
"Hehe! A small gift is nothing! If the envoy doesn't accept it, Lin will feel a little embarrassed!" Lin Da said very generously, his expression quite sincere.
"Okay! Then I'll take it in the future! In the future, if there is anything that Marquis Lin can help, just come to this envoy!" Gui Xi was smiling happily at this moment. The three hundred years of Lingzhi fruit that Lin Da gave him is a rare thing in the cultivation world, and when ordinary monks get this thing, they will generally use it to refine elixirs that enhance their cultivation, even if they are taken raw, they can improve the cultivation of monks for decades out of thin air, and they are definitely priceless in the market. Gui Xi got this baby, and he was naturally very happy.
In fact, in Linda's Qiankun bag, I don't know how many such treasures there are, and this move is just to curry favor with the royal family on the surface.
"Okay! Let's leave now! We will wait for Marquis Lin's reinforcements in Xiangcheng! There will be a date later!" Gui Xi was not verbose, and as soon as he gave up his hand to Lin Da and the others, he immediately turned around and left.
"Congratulations to the envoy!" Lin Da and the others bowed to Gui Xi, and after getting up, he shouted to the guards behind him: "You guys escort the envoy for a ride! Don't let the envoy have any accidents on the way!"
"Yes!" More than thirty people flew out from behind Linda, and as soon as his figure moved, he appeared beside Gui Xi, guarding him without saying a word.
Seeing this, a look of helplessness flashed on Gui Xi's face, and he didn't say much, and immediately drove the magic disk to fly in the direction it came.
Lin Da and the others stayed in place, no one said a word, and after more than twenty minutes, he collected his spiritual sense, and then turned to Arden and the others and said, "Well, President, that person has been far enough away that we can speak freely now." (To be continued.) )
