Luo Ming took Xiao Yu's pulse, and felt that although she was pale and weak, her pulse was very calm and powerful. If you take a break, it shouldn't be a big problem.

However, with the help of Hu Zhongyan in the dantian, he has recovered about 70% of his state, and there is no problem in his actions.

He simply included Xiao Yu in the newly acquired ring "Don't Have a Cave", let her rest quietly in it, and he set off for Fuhua County. Although Xiao Yu was unwilling, her physical condition did not allow her to toss anymore, so she had to live obediently in the zircon ring.

The cavalry of the hundred escort teams under the mountain were all killed, and Luo Ming lacked the equipment to dig the pit, so he spent a lot of time digging the pit. Fortunately, the cavalry who came from Fuhua County to meet the escort team finally arrived, and everyone worked together to bury the hundred men and horses in a relatively secluded place on the side of the road. Luo Ming also deliberately erected a large stone in front of this large tomb, so that the officials or family members in charge of civil affairs in the future can find it more conveniently.

The cavalry led by Luo Ming had not yet rushed back to Fuhua County, and on the way they met an errand who was in a hurry to deliver the letter. The errand officer did not recognize Luo Ming. But when Luo Ming saw that he frowned and galloped in a hurry, he felt that the matter was more urgent. So he stopped and asked what was so urgent.

When the messenger knew that it was Luo Ming, the chief lieutenant of Black Cloud City, in front of him, he hurriedly took out a letter. The letter was written by Zhao Hui. He said: The situation is very bad these days.

The Northern Alliance has vigorously recruited troops, and at present more than 1.2 million people have been assembled throughout the country, and the army is pressing the border, threatening to fight every day. The man who remained in Fuyang County and dressed as Luo Ming had been assassinated by the Assassins. At this moment, the Xuanwu Kingdom had sent an envoy to negotiate, threatening in a high-profile manner that the prince who did not release them within a month would not need to be released. The army will fight until the city of Black Clouds, burns the royal palace, and slaughters the people of the city.

In addition, I heard that the Avrans Imperial Dynasty was very angry at Black Cloud City's occupation of the Eastern Holy Kingdom, and it also sent an envoy to ask for the guilt. Please Luo Ming hurry back and preside over the overall situation.

After Luo Ming rushed back to Fuhua County, he heard from Zhao Hui and others that the envoys of the Northern Alliance had gone to Xuanyang City. He hurried back to the capital overnight without stopping. Urgently summoned the minister in charge of negotiations in Black Cloud City, Su Guiqing, the secretary of the Lifan Yuan. Call him to give a briefing on the day's negotiations.

After negotiations after the last war, Su Guiqing knew that he had limited talents and lack courage, and planned to resign and return to his hometown to retire. Helplessly, no one in the court was willing to take over the affairs of the Imperial Court, so King Wu repeatedly kept him. When the envoys of the Northern Alliance arrived this time, he didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he always dealt with the other party by delaying and pretending to be deaf and dumb, and waited for Luo Ming to come back to make the decision.

Luo Ming rushed back in the middle of the night to make the old man overjoyed, regardless of the advanced age of the third watch in the middle of the night, hurriedly got up and dressed up and rushed to see the crown prince, and described the negotiation process in detail. He said that the other party sent a military general this time, named Zhang Huiwu. It is said that he has always been a town guard of the northwest defense line of the Northern Alliance, and he is very good at fighting and has a good temper.

His request was simple: immediately and unconditionally release their prince Gu Yinqi, otherwise, the king of the Northern Alliance would personally command an army of 1.5 million to destroy all the land of Black Cloud City and slaughter the people.

Su Guiqing became excited as he spoke, and said, "Why is this guy so unreasonable? Obviously, they have lost two wars, and they are so arrogant and domineering, they are simply bullying." We certainly won't promise them. It's just that I don't know exactly how His Highness wants to respond, so I pretend to be deaf and dumb at the negotiating table. ”

Luo Ming nodded after listening to the introduction, and said, "You go back and rest, you don't have to go to the negotiation venue tomorrow." I'll take care of everything. Luo Ming sent Su Guiqing away, so he had time to sit down and sort out his thoughts.

At this time, Xiao Yu drilled out of the "other cave" and came to him. The complexion on her face has improved a lot, and her eyes have become very bright. It seems that after this catastrophe, her cultivation has improved a lot.

"Luo Ming. Xiao Yu's voice was full of joy. "I'm going to tidy up this space and not get too dirty. What are you going to name it this time?"

"Let's name it 'Immortal Cave Mansion', you don't have to change it too much, so as not to cause trouble. Luo Ming said: "You take the Luo Ming mansion and the cloak, and they all belong to you." As for the inside of this pendant, you should check it carefully and see if there are any good things. Then, he taught Xiao Yu how to enter the secret room on each floor.

The next day, it wasn't until three o'clock in the sun that Luo Ming got up lazily. The subordinate reported that the envoys of the Northern Alliance had been waiting at the negotiating table all morning and were very impatient. But none of the subordinates dared to wake up the captain.

Luo Ming smiled and said, "You did the right thing!" He slowly asked someone to freshen him up, and enjoyed a sumptuous meal. It was not until late afternoon that we arrived at the place of negotiation, the Jardine Hall in the palace. The subordinates said: The envoys of the Northern Alliance have been waiting all morning, and now they have just gone to lunch.

Luo Ming said: "You go and call him, and say that I, Luo Ming, will now take over the negotiation affairs." If he can't come and talk to me right away, then ask him to go back to the Northern Alliance as soon as he's done eating. ”

The people rushed away, and within a few minutes, they saw a big man with a red face and angry strides coming. When he entered the door, he roared like thunder: "How can you be so rude to the messenger?

It seems that this person is that Zhang Huiwu.

Luo Ming impatiently reached out and pulled out a saber from the waist of the guard next to him, grabbed the handle of the knife with one hand, and the head of the knife with the other, and broke it gently, only to hear the sound of "pop", and the steel knife was broken into two from the middle. The longer part that attached to the hilt even trembled in the air, making a humming metallic vibrating sound.

He threw the two severed knives on the table at once, and said angrily: "Politeness and upbringing are for civilized people who are elegant and reasonable. It is useless to be polite to treat unreasonable barbarians. They don't understand. They only know what strength is. ”

Luo Minglu's hand suppressed the big man at once. He didn't expect that this kid would be able to break such a ghost-headed knife made of stainless steel in an understatement. Since his ability is so great, he won't be the kind of person who will be frightened when he hears his own words twice.

It seems that he used the wrong attitude from the beginning, and now he has become difficult and embarrassed.

Luo Ming saw that he was stunned and didn't know how to get off the stage, so he waved his hand and pointed to the chair in front of him nonchalantly and said, "Lord Zhang, please take a seat, you're welcome!"
