Episode 38 The official makes a wish
Hearing Prince Luan's astonishing question, Lin Da was like hearing a thunderstorm, his eyes suddenly widened, and he was stunned in place, not knowing how to answer for a while. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"The villain... The villain didn't understand what the prince meant..."Lin Da was stunned for a while, and then asked with a trembling pretend. He knew very well that pies would not fall from the sky, what kind of person was this prince who was in a high position in the Gui Kingdom? Whether it was in the status of the Gui Kingdom or the cultivation realm of the powerhouses of the Dan Realm, he was definitely the top existence of the pyramid in the Terran Continent. For a person of such an identity to suddenly ask such a question to a person like him who had just stepped into the ranks of cultivators for no reason, he must have his ulterior motives, and it would even bring great danger to Linda. Fugui would not fall from the sky for no reason, and Linda couldn't help but get nervous at the thought of what the other party might want him to do next.
When Prince Luan saw Lin Da's stunned look, he naturally thought that Lin Da had been stunned by his "generosity" and "gifts", and his heart was suddenly happy, but on the surface, he pretended to be serious and asked, "Lin Xiaoyou, do you know the four nobles with different surnames in our Gui Kingdom?"
"Are the four nobles with different surnames mentioned by the prince the four clans of Li, Qiang, Wu, and Di?" Lin Da replied cautiously.
Prince Luan nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "That's right! It's them! In addition to the royal family, these four clans are the most powerful in our Gui country. The total territory of their feudal feuds accounts for two-third of the total area of our country, and the counties and counties under their jurisdiction have a population of millions of people, and their annual fiscal and tax revenues amount to millions of guiyuan, accounting for two-thirds of the total number of tenths of the country. The people of the four clans, under the royal family and above the people, have a prominent position, and enjoy all kinds of privileges granted by the royal family,... With such a transcendent position, I don't know how many people in Gui Kingdom envy and how many people yearn for it!"
Linda pretended to be shocked and nodded, but she didn't dare to speak.
Prince Luan's tone suddenly changed, and he looked at the Qionglou platform built by the Li clan in the distance, and suddenly said with an angry face: "However, the four nobles have received such preferential treatment from the royal family, but they have not kept their duties well and are willing to be virtuous ministers of the Gui country! Instead, they run rampant in the government and the opposition, bullying the people, oppressing the people, and even plotting against the royal family, and having a heart of disobedience! This is really extremely hateful!"
Lin Da naturally heard what Prince Luan meant, and immediately raised his head, pretending to be serious, and said: "Exactly! The villain thinks that whether it is a nobleman in a high position or an ordinary mortal like us, since we are the people of the royal family, we should obey the will of heaven and serve the royal family with peace of mind." Although these four nobles are prominent, they are also ministers of the royal family, and they should be used as examples, honestly abide by their duties, worry about the worries of the world first, and enjoy the joys of the world after the world, and serve the royal family with peace of mind, how can they have the intention of rebellion?"
"What a worry for the world first, and joy for the world after the world!" When Prince Luan heard this, a different color appeared in his eyes, he looked at Lin Da approvingly, and asked with a smile: "Then do you know why the old man asked you such a question just now?"
"Villain, I still don't understand..."Linda touched her head and replied pretending not to know.
"This king wants you to lead the recruitment of soldiers to help our royal family eradicate the four nobles! If it is successful, no matter how much effort you contribute, the old man will definitely recommend you as a prince and let the king crown you as a noble!" Prince Luan paused and suddenly said sharply.
"What?!, you want us to deal with the four nobles?!" Linda asked with wide eyes. Although he had already guessed in his heart, he was still shocked when these words came out of the old man's mouth.
Prince Luan nodded and said, "Yes, don't you believe what the old man said?"
Lin Da was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly bent down to bow, and said respectfully: "Of course the villain believes the words of the prince! I deeply feel the grace of the prince's recommendation! It's just that the villain is just an ordinary casual cultivator, how can he be able to assist the royal family to eradicate the four nobles?
Lin Da was really anxious at the moment, he secretly thought: "You royal family and nobles have a conflict, what does it matter to us ordinary people? Why did you get us involved?" He knew very well that the prince put forward this condition just to borrow the strength of the nearly 2,000 conscripted soldiers behind him. It is false to call them nobles, and it is true that they should be used as cannon fodder to eliminate the four clans! If they are really involved in the conflict between the royal family and the nobles, whether they succeed in the end or not, the soldiers will have to pay a huge price for casualties, and the Blue Star Autonomous Regiment will also suffer heavy losses, which he is extremely unwilling.
Prince Luan listened to Lin Da's resignation, his eyes flashed, and after looking at Lin Da carefully, he smiled and said: "Lin Xiaoyou, don't be modest! I see that you are a talent, and if you are a dragon and a phoenix, you will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future! Moreover, your cultivation qualifications are good, and the old man is rare in his life, if you can get sufficient cultivation resources, maybe you will go further than the old man on the road of cultivation in the future!" The old man promises that if you are willing to help me in this matter, I will not only provide you with more and richer cultivation resources and equipment, but also help you and your subordinate recruits to speed up their cultivation and improve their strength. And after the matter is completed, he will recommend you to be the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, ranked as a nobleman, and others will also have their own rewards!" He actually made a wish to Lin Da and gave Lin Da extremely tempting conditions.
"However, even if I am willing, my brothers may not be willing to fight with me..."Linda thought for a moment, and reluctantly moved out of this reason.
Prince Luan laughed and said: "Lin Xiaoyou is too worried! There will be brave men under the heavy reward, not to mention your subordinates? How dare others refute you for the decision you made as the leader of the recruited soldiers? If there are people who dare to contradict you, don't worry, the old man will also help you establish your authority and kill those who dare on the spot! You can rest assured that you can lead them! In the future, you will kill the enemy on the battlefield together to serve the country, and you will have a wife and a son, wouldn't it be happy!"
When Linda heard this, he was shocked, and secretly sighed at the viciousness of this prince's methods, and figured out the amount of wealth he promised and the gains and losses of the autonomous group. It is impossible to refuse the prince's proposal in one bite, with this prince's vicious methods, I am afraid that as soon as he refuses, the prince will destroy himself in the next moment and change to an obedient person.
But if he really agrees to the prince's request, even if he successfully helps the royal family eliminate the nobles, but the birds are good and the cunning rabbits are dead and the lackeys are cooking, will the royal family also see them as a new threat and get rid of them as well?
Linda thought about it secretly several times in her heart, and finally made a decision. He pretended to be extremely grateful, and suddenly knelt down to Prince Luan and said: "The villain thanks the prince for his kindness! I am willing to fully assist the royal family and lead the army to eliminate the traitors! I wish the royal family a thousand generations and ten thousand years of prosperity!"
When Prince Luan heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and with a wave of his hand, an unstoppable mana slowly lifted Lin Da up. He looked at Lin Da carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more comfortable he became, and said with a smile: "Okay! Since Lin Xiaoyou is willing to make such a determination! This king is naturally very pleased! When this king returns to Xiangcheng, he will first recommend you as a thousand households, and let you be the head of the levy corps, and lead the army of Lijun! You can rest assured that you will follow this king!"
After speaking, he casually took out a few more artifacts from the storage bag, cast a spell and floated in front of Lin Da, and said, "Although you have received three months of special training from the Li Clan, you can be regarded as having some cultivation, but they will definitely not provide other cultivation resources except for teaching you the most basic exercises." Hehe! There are many things in the cultivation realm that you have never heard of! These artifacts will be given to you as a congratulatory gift from the old man!"
Lin Da was immediately overjoyed, and reached out to take a few inches-sized things floating in front of him, which were a pocket, a mini sword, a small copper ring, and a small green bottle. He played around with it a few times, and although he was very curious, he didn't seem to know anything about these things.
Prince Luan smiled slightly, first pointed to the small pocket and said: "This pocket is the Dharma bag commonly used by our cultivators to hold all kinds of things! Don't look at this thing is only the size of a palm, the space inside is not small, generally the most ordinary Dharma bag can hold things with a surface capacity of more than five times, the more advanced the Dharma bag, the more things it can contain." All you need to do is inject some mana into it, and you're ready to take it out and collect it as you like. ”
After speaking, he also showed it in front of Linda, and after injecting some mana into the magic bag, he sent out a suction force from the mouth of the bag, sucking the small sword, copper ring and other things in front of him into it, and then he used his spiritual sense to control the magic bag, so that it could shoot out the items he wanted, and the whole action was done in one go, which looked very convenient. Lin Da was even more amazed when he watched from the sidelines, thinking that those cultivators could often take out all kinds of things out of thin air, and it turned out that there was such a treasure.
Next, Prince Luan pointed to the one-inch-long mini sword and said: "This magic weapon is called the Yi Neng Sword, as long as some mana is injected, it can become a normal size, and it can exert the power of different attack attributes according to the user's own attributes, different exercises and the level of mana, which is a very practical melee weapon." ”
After speaking, Prince Luan held the small sword and injected mana, and the mini sword immediately became more than a meter long. He held a small sword and waved it at a stone pier more than ten meters away, only to see an earthy yellow energy wave shoot out like lightning and flint in the direction of the sword's swing, and instantly wave this stone pier in hundreds of catties in half!
Lin Da was extremely excited when he saw it, and sighed that there was such a powerful treasure in the cultivation realm, compared with the small knife magic weapon he used before, the power of this small sword was much stronger, and he couldn't help but feel excited.
Prince Luan successively introduced the small copper ring and the pill. The bronze ring magic weapon is called the Vajra Protective Shield, which is a common personal protective weapon, which can float above the user's head after injecting mana, and will actively spray out a layer of energy shield to protect the Lord when encountering a threat, and the defense is much stronger than the spiritual shield condensed by the monk himself. The Vajra Talisman Shield magic weapon given by the fat old man has reached the level of a mid-level primary magic weapon, and it can easily block the ordinary attacks of the Earth Realm Cultivators.
The sword and the bronze ring are rare high-level magic weapons, and they can even be used by Linda until the late stage of the realm. As for the bottle of small pill, it is an auxiliary pill taken by monks in the middle and late stages of the Qi Realm, which can help monks improve their mana and break through bottlenecks, which is also extremely applicable to Linda's current state.
Lin Da happily accepted these things, put them all into the storage bag, hung them on his body, and got these magic weapons, he now finally looks like a cultivator. Then, Lin Da thanked Prince Luan again, and said how to be grateful and vowed to serve the royal family with all his might, which made Prince Luan extremely satisfied.
An hour later, more than a thousand soldiers had gathered in the square, most of them full of joy and anticipation, glad that they had finally been able to break free from the control of the Li clan. But there are still many people who have a look of worry on their faces, and they are worried about the war they are about to participate in and the unpredictable future.
Lin Daxian summoned the backbone of the autonomous group, such as Ard and Tang Long, and briefly conveyed the conversation with Prince Luan just now, which immediately shocked everyone. But the clever members of the Autonomous Mission accepted the arrangement without much warning. Then, with the support of Prince Luan, as the leader of the recruitment team, Lin Da came forward to give a speech to all the recruited soldiers on how to serve the royal family and encourage the people, which immediately inspired people's hearts. After everything was ready, the nearly 2,000 requisitioned soldiers, under the guidance of Prince Luan, finally left Lifu and went to Guidu to assemble.
