The joy of the moment quickly faded, and Zu Zhe had already made up his mind.

Gently placing the Qiankun ring on the low table in front of him, Zu Zhe didn't look at it again. The reward is worth the output of the garrison for several years, but it can't really get the garrison out of the predicament, if there is no water source, the desert will eventually become an oasis, and after a few years, the garrison will still be the small tribe that is in danger, and it will be more and more difficult to maintain a war department.

"Lord Inspector, I don't know if you can judge the matter of Sumy City?" Zu Zhe stared into Qiao He's eyes, throwing out the question that had been bothering him for days.

Johe's chips have been released, and although Zu Zhe is asking, he is also clearly indicating his attitude.

"Senior Brother Zu, the last time you and I met was in the door of Banjiazi, right?" Qiao He didn't answer directly, but asked Zu Zhe.

"Exactly, it's a pity that Zu's strength is not good, and he was defeated by Senior Brother Ye Cheng in the second round. Johe suddenly brought up the old thing, which made Zu Zhe a little confused.

"Senior Brother is too humble, and he can let Senior Brother Ye Cheng's Dayan Sword Technique use the last style, and at that time, there are no more than five disciples in the sect who can do it. To this day, the battle between the two senior brothers is often mentioned by the elders, and it is a classic battle that beginners must observe. ”

This is indeed the pinnacle battle of Zu Zhe's life, under the gaze of the elders and disciples of the Nine Shadows, Zu Zhe, who was not favored before the war, forced Ye Cheng, the first person in the sect, to a desperate situation, and even let him keep the Da Yan swordsmanship that was ready to deal with Qiao He to reveal his true face in advance.

At that time, Zu Zhe should have the strength of the top ten disciples in the previous generation, if he hadn't met Ye Cheng, a genius who was a little demonic, he would have gone further.

Thirty years have passed in a flash, Qiao He and Ye Cheng are writing their legends, but Zu Zhe chose to return to his hometown and take up the burden of the garrison, and his cultivation has stalled.

Twenty years ago, the words of his mentor Quan Yi's hard persuasion were still in his ears, and in the end, he was forced to expel his master but failed to shake Zu Zhe's determination, and at that time, there was no longer a mid-Jindan monk in the garrison war department, and he could be removed at any time. Today, Zu Zhe's fellow disciples have their own achievements, and the brothers who are not as qualified as Zu Zhe have all become the leaders of the Nine Shadows, but Zu Zhe has never regretted it.

The implication of Qiao He's words is very much that Zu Zhe has already tasted, presumably in Qiao He's opinion, Zu Zhe's decision twenty years ago has been very unwise, and he should think about it more carefully today. Perhaps there is another deep meaning that even Johe didn't realize, now that the two are no longer as good as they were back then, Zu Zhe no longer has the capital to bargain with Johe.

"When Senior Brother mentions Dabi in the door, it reminds me of an interesting incident that happened in the garrison camp a few days ago. Zu Zhe said with a smile, "That day, Gunuo came to my camp and clashed with the sergeants under my account, but just in time for one of the small flag officers Jin Dan Heavenly Tribulation was approaching, when I rushed back to the camp, I looked around the barracks and found that there were not enough Jin Dan monks to protect the Dharma. ”

Zu Zhe laughed out loud, but Johe just looked at him with interest, because it wasn't funny. A war department, even ten Jindan monks can't be found, this is an unimaginable disaster in Jiuyou, and the guards are already embarrassed to this point?

"Later, I really couldn't do it, so I casually found a sergeant who built the foundation and cultivated to make up the numbers. Zuzhe continued. "It's just that my little flag is still very strong, and I have to fight through the five layers of the Heavenly Tribulation, it's really beyond my strength......"

The smile on Qiao He's face disappeared, Zu Zhe's cultivation was the highest in the garrison camp, and it was only in the middle of Jindan, and the other team officers were all in the early stage of Jindan, with such a lineup plus a soldier in the foundation building period, he also dared to protect the Dharma for the Jiedan monks, and even had to go through the Five Elements Heavenly Tribulation?

This kind of death-defying behavior is not only the Nine Shadows, but all sects are absolutely forbidden!

"At the last moment, I wondered, is this the end of this life?If I can do it all over again, will I learn a point or two from my senior brothers?" Zu Zhe lowered his head, as if he was really thinking, but in fact, every guard would have the same answer, and after a while, Zu Zhe's low but firm voice sounded again, "No, I will still come to this moment, even if I die under the Heavenly Tribulation!"

The guards are really a bunch of crazy people!

Qiao He imagined how Zu Zhe would reject him, but this kind of blunt statement that he was a madman was really unpredictable, and he had the impression that Zu Zhe was very calm and wise, and he could be described as a model of the disciple of the Nine Shadows, and it would be easy to talk to such a person, and many things would be understood without breaking down.

But when I saw it today, it really disappointed Johe, Zuzhe was still wise, but he was infected with the madness of the guards, or this madness has always been hidden in him.

A wise madman, probably the last person Johe wants to face......

Zu Zhe was unwilling to give up Sumy City, even if it was to give up the reward of the Nine Shadows.

From Zu Zhe's words, Qiao He could hear the contempt of the guards for the rules, and they would only act with their hearts.

The wishful thinking of the headquarters of Guno and Keqin was not unsound, and by the time the war report reached Jiuyou, the war had been over for seven days.

It was also the most favorable seven days for the garrison.

Both Keqin and Jiuyou have clearly stipulated that seven days after the city was breached, the aborigines and prisoners of war in the city were disqualified from testifying, in order to prevent falsifying the results of the battle and covering up the situation of the battle, after all, it was too easy for the monks.

The Keqin headquarters took advantage of this and used the image of the destruction of Sumy City provided by Guno to make a public case into an unsolved case......

This method is not clever, but it is effective, and now he has thrown this problem to Johe, thinking about what those picky historians may say about himself in the future, Johe can't help but have a headache.

There is no need to continue this topic, the two are already clear about each other's positions, and the difference is not far, and it is only the distance between Jin Luo and Jiuyou......

After a short silence, Qiao He handed the Qiankun ring back into Zu Zhe's hands, "No matter where Su Mei belongs, this is what the guards deserve, Senior Brother Zu, please take it." ”

When the two walked out of the tent, their faces were natural, and the corners of their mouths were even more relaxed.

This is not hypocrisy, the end of this meeting that the two expected to be very embarrassing, although not less embarrassed than expected, made the two completely relaxed. There's nothing worse than that, so what's there to worry about?

Outside the tent, Fu Botao and the guards had a good conversation, obviously, Fu Botao, who was also not good-looking and did not have the slightest momentum of a superior person, was very compatible with them.

Zu Ming's apprenticeship to Jiuyou and Fu Botao came down the mountain to take office in the same year, and there was also a relationship, although Zu Ming had no impression, but Fu Botao was deeply impressed by the most naughty Zu Ming of the group of little hairy heads, and this coincidence also made the two quickly get acquainted, and the smug Zu Ming also revealed interesting things in the garrison camp to him......
