Ning Qi sat stiffly in place, Lu An's words made him ponder for a long time.

This is indeed something he has never thought of, or touched, and what he thinks in his heart does not seem to be so consistent with the words in Lu An's mouth.

He wants to win, to win every battle, not to survive.

Great Qin now has a vast territory and a strong army, so he shouldn't think about the safety of his soldiers at all.

If he cares about the life and death of his subordinates at all times, how can he fight this victory?

Ning Qi thought about it for a while, but he really couldn't understand Lu An's opinion of Hu Yong.

He didn't understand Hu Yong before, and he didn't understand Lu An's opinion now.

Lu An looked at Ning Qi in front of him and didn't speak for a long time, the expression on his face did not stretch, but became more and more solemn.

This change in expression made it clear to Lu An that Ning Qi didn't understand what he had just said so thoroughly.

Lu An then shook his head, "Everyone has their own ideas, you may not agree with what I said, but you can choose to listen to it, Hu Yong has been a general for decades, and the death and casualty rate of all the soldiers who follow him has always been the lowest, and he has therefore become a general that all soldiers want to follow, this is not something that Hu Yong did on purpose, but something he did instinctively, because he himself is the one who climbed up from the bottom, he knows better than anyone how a battle should be fought, not the so-called dare not fight in your eyes." ”

Ning Qi agreed, he still very much agreed with Hu Yong's experience, and now he is willing to follow Hu Yong as a general, which is also one of the reasons, but he still disagrees with Hu Yong's strategy.

If he is the main general, then Da Zhou can be completely cleared within half a year, and those obstacles along the way are simply not worth mentioning to their Great Qin, and they can all be destroyed!

"What Master Lu said, Ning Qi wrote it down, and when I go back, I will learn this so-called art of being a general with General Hu!" Ning Qi said very seriously.

From Ning Qi's words, Lu An heard a faint trace of stubbornness, and he couldn't think of Ning Qi anymore wanting to continue to talk deeply with him.

The murderous aura on Ning's body and his character were like retreating, vigorous and unknowing, sharp and sharp, without any forbearance.

There are only two endings for such people, either they go all the way up and climb to the top, or they are forcibly killed halfway.

Such an ending is not good or bad for Ning Qi.

Once such a stubborn person can succeed, then the future of this person is a smooth road.

But once this kind of person fails, then it must be in the form of rebellion and separation, and it may be very miserable.

Lu An unconsciously saw through Ning Qi's future, which made him sigh directly, "Ning Qi, your future may be brilliant, of course, it may also be miserable, how to go on this road in the future depends on yourself." ”

Suddenly, such a sentence came, Ning Qi's eyes widened directly, and then he narrowed directly, this is not a good word, "Does Master Lu really think so?"

Lu An didn't say much, he shook his head directly, "Your murderous intent is too heavy, and the murderous aura on your body is even stronger than that of ordinary grandmasters, I don't know if you feel it yourself?"

Ning Qi nodded, this was the way he went.

"Since you know it yourself, then you must also know that there are only two possibilities for this road to the end, either kill the road and become a god, or in the end be devoured by murderous energy, remember what I said before? Heaven has reincarnation, and cause and effect have retribution! Can you understand what I said?" Lu An asked very seriously.

Ning Qi took a deep breath, he never believed in this so-called cause and effect in his heart, what he believed was the sword in his hand, as long as there was a sword in his hand, no matter what the cause or effect, then all of this could be broken.

Seeing Ning Qi's direct eyes, Lu An understood Ning Qi's choice, which was the same as his choice at that time, what cause and effect, he didn't care at all, he only believed in the sword in his hand.

But now Lu An's mind has changed a little, the stronger his strength, the more he feels how small he is, whether it is strength or fate, there are some things that he really can't carry on his shoulders.

He originally thought that his life was in his own hands, but until now, he realized that this was not the case, and his life had always been in the hands of others.

If you want to truly control your own destiny, you don't have to rely on a mouth and a sword in your hand, but you have to break free from the shackles on your body, the shackles that cause and effect bind you to your body.

Anyway, Lu An himself hadn't come out of this shackle yet, and as for what the shackles on Ning Qi's body were, he didn't know it now, so naturally he was even less interested in knowing.

Ning Qi knew that when he talked about this, Lu An was no longer so friendly to his senses, but there were some things he hadn't finished yet.

"Master Lu, this time I came to the Craftsman City, one of the purposes is the Qianlong List, and the other is you, I want to invite you to come to Daqin to live often, I don't know if this requirement can be met?" Ning Qi asked.

Lu An shook his head, how could he not know what Ning Qi was thinking in his heart?

Ning Zheng wants him to become the pillar foundation of Great Qin, and now the strongest person in Great Qin is not Great Qin himself, but the people of Xiaoyao Pavilion, these people are like a thorn in the throat for Great Qin, if there is a person like Lu An, then the influence of Xiaoyao Pavilion on Great Qin can be minimized.

And now Lu An has grown to the current level, which is a very solid foundation for Daqin.

Ning Zheng didn't misunderstand Lu An, but unfortunately his expectations did not succeed, Lu An and his vision are not the same, and this foundation has never been realized.

"There is no need to say more about this matter, your eldest brother has a big plan in mind, and I don't, so the two of us are not all the way, so don't mention this matter again. Lu An politely refused.

Ning Qi also showed a look of disappointment, if Lu An could come to Great Qin, for Great Qin, Great Qin would definitely be able to truly unify the northern realm in the future.

It's a pity that Lu An's choice was completely different from theirs, and he chose another path.

Fortunately, he did not stand on the opposite side of Daqin, this should be Daqin's willingness to still look forward to it.

Of course, it may also be because there are people and things that Lu An cares about in Daqin, so Daqin has been trying his best to win over Lu An, and Lu An's refusal can be regarded as tactful, not so decisive.

But after Ning Qi came this time, he was dead set on Lu An in his heart, he was never a hesitant person, and if he was rejected once, he would not ask for a second time.

The conversation between the two ended at this time. Ning Qi nodded silently at Lu An, and then got up, "Master Lu, let's do it today, I don't want to continue to ask, I'll leave first." ”

Lu An was slightly surprised by Ning Qi's sudden rise, but he didn't mean to refuse, and nodded silently.

However, Ning Qi had just taken two steps, suddenly stopped, and said with a smile: "Master Lu, the three people you got along with before should also be the ones who came to participate in the Hidden Dragon List, and so should I, then they should be my opponents, I really want to know how powerful the three people who are favored by Master Lu are?"

Lu An, who suddenly heard these words, laughed directly, and said very seriously: "You are stronger than them, they are not your opponents, but their future may be a little better than yours." ”

Referring to the two people in the future, Ning Qi took a deep breath directly, Lu An still remembered those words just now, and now that he mentioned it again, he was naturally displeased.

"Since Master Lu said so, then I'm even more interested in these three people!" After Ning Qi finished speaking, he saluted Lu An directly, and then withdrew.

Lu An suddenly shook his head and smiled bitterly, and sighed silently, the fate of the three of them may change dramatically because of him, whether it is good or bad is not known for the time being, this matter makes him a little lost.

But after a blink of an eye, Lu An put away his worries, and all strong people should not be afraid of challenges.

Every strong man wins in challenge after challenge before he is finally qualified to take his position.

Since Qin Shuang wanted to get ahead in the Craftsman City, then he had to accept all kinds of challenges, and Ning Qi was the first challenge he accepted when he came to the Craftsman City.

For this kind of opponent with a strength reward, as long as he can survive safely, for Qin Shuang, this is a victory!

But this thought instantly made Lu An smile bitterly, most of his former self was the same, right?

The challenge he faced was much greater than Qin Shuang's, and his opponents were either one or two realms higher than him, and maybe even a group.

In the face of such an opponent, in Wu Jie's eyes, as long as he can survive safely, it should be another kind of victory, right?

The word win will most likely not appear in Wu Jie's mind.

But for himself, winning is not the point, living is the real point.

Whether Qin Shuang's thoughts are the same as him now is a bit difficult to say.

Just as Lu An was still thinking about where Qin Shuang's road would go, a fiery figure suddenly rushed in from outside.

The door was kicked open directly, which scared Lu An so much that he couldn't say it well, and he regretted it for a while.

"Didn't you say that you would come up to see me after chatting? That kid has been gone for so long, and he hasn't seen you come up?

Mr. Qing's cold questioning voice instantly made Lu An's scalp tingle, and he quickly got up and saluted respectfully.

Mr. Qing snorted coldly directly, and then sat down in the position where he sat up before.

"I don't even know that I respect the old and love the young, so I was asked to come over to see you?" Mr. Qing's tone was still full of resentment.

Lu An laughed awkwardly, not knowing what to do.

It was here that Mr. Shang walked in with a pot of hot tea, relieving Lu An's embarrassment.

"Mr. Qing, when the tea came, I heard you reprimanding others from afar. Mr. Shang said with a smile on his face and poured a cup of tea for the two of them.

Lu An nodded cooperatively.

Mr. Qing blew on the hot tea with a nonchalant face, and then took a sip.

Lu An sat in place very honestly, he didn't dare to make extra movements at all, Mr. Qing didn't speak, he really didn't dare to drink tea and speak.

When Mr. Shang saw Lu An, who was sitting in a precarious position, he couldn't help laughing, and said with a faint smile: "Mr. Qing is okay, don't scare the children anymore, it's not good to be frightened later." ”

"Huh, frightened, kid, can he still be called a kid now, believe it or not, he can slap you to death?" Mr. Qing said angrily.

This made Mr. Shang laugh, "It's normal for me to shoot me to death, for Mr. Qing, isn't Lu An still a child? ”

Mr. Qing rolled his eyes directly, almost laughed, and said directly: "Drink tea!

Lu An laughed, nodded directly, the aggrieved expression was finally put away, and then he took a sip of tea.

"I haven't seen you leave the City Lord's Mansion since you came back from Zhongzhou, and today you are so interested that you are with Ning Qi of Daqin, and you still come to us for tea?"

Mr. Qing asked calmly.

"It's just an accident to be with Ning Qi today, indeed, it seems that I have never come out since I came back. Lu An replied.

"Accident? It seems that there is something serious to do? What can keep you busy now, it is estimated that it is the matter of the Qianlong List. Mr. Qing saw through Lu An's mind at a glance.

Lu An nodded silently, he was indeed guessed correctly, "Well, it's related to the Hidden Dragon List." ”

The expression on Mr. Qing's face lit up directly, "I know about the Qianlong List, your City Lord's Mansion is looking for a group of clean talents, right? The rising stars of Craftsman City have already stagnated, and you don't have anyone who can support the beams after that, so the things that can make you go out in person are probably very important, I guess you have encountered some good seedlings, right?"

"Mr. Qing is really like a god, it is true that as Mr. Qing guessed, I found a very clean candidate, and I also went to contact that person just now, and then I met Ning Qi, and we chatted. Lu An nodded in response.

Mr. Qing put down the teacup and asked very seriously: "Did you encounter something terrible when you went to Zhongzhou this time, otherwise with your style, you would definitely not start looking for a successor now, could it be that something happened to Wu Jie?"

Lu An was directly impressed by Mr. Qing's logic, and several completely unrelated things would be linked together, which really shocked him, "I don't know if Wu Xie has an accident, but he did encounter some big things, and what he is doing now is not all to find a successor, just to find some rising stars for the Craftsman City, and by the way to consolidate Tang Geng's position, after Tang Geng succeeded as the city lord, there are still many people who have opinions about him, so I want him to make his position in the Craftsman City a little stronger." ”

For this purpose, Mr. Qing was directly stunned, she didn't expect that the Hidden Dragon List was actually for Tang Geng.

"Your thoughts are really a bit eye-opening for me, Tang Geng is like that, is it necessary to do so many meaningless things for him?" Mr. Qing said speechlessly.

Lu An was also stunned, and looked at Mr. Qing with great puzzlement, he didn't think that the Hidden Dragon List was a meaningless thing, if the Hidden Dragon List was really successful, it would be of great benefit to both the Craftsman City and the Ning'an Pavilion, and this benefit could not be seen from the appearance.

"Mr. Qing, isn't it a bit early for you to say this? Just holding the Hidden Dragon List has attracted so many geniuses to the Craftsman City at once, this alone is already considered a success, the gold content of the Hidden Dragon List must be much higher than that of the White List, how many spirit crystals the White List of Xiaoyao Pavilion has earned for Xiaoyao Pavilion, this should be clear to Mr. Qing, right?" Lu An directly retorted back.

Mr. Qing snorted disdainfully, "Xiaoyao Pavilion is Xiaoyao Pavilion, your craftsman city, your Ning'an Pavilion is a little far worse than it? You can do it this time, it is because others give you face, your Lu An's current face is not small, Daqin, Dahan, and even Da Zhou, these people are all giving you face, wait until next time, do you think your face can still be worth so much? Once these dynasties don't come, do you think those geniuses of the Five Realms and Six Realms will still come to participate?"

This is a question, and Lu An was directly confused.

He doesn't seem to have thought of the problem above, if he is gone, whether the Hidden Dragon List can continue to exist, this is a very real question, if the Hidden Dragon List is based on his existence, it is indeed a failed thing.

Lu An thought deeply for a moment.

Mr. Qing looked at Lu An with a smile, and had a mocking thought, "You young people can really toss, these lists in the hands of Xiaoyao Pavilion have gone through hundreds of thousands of years, and they have continued year after year, but they can't be surpassed casually, just the evaluation of the list is very particular, in order to find these 100 people, do you know how much effort they spent on research and collection, and finally compare, the Tao in this is not something you can explain with a few casual words, so don't underestimate Xiaoyao Pavilion." ”

Lu An nodded silently, now he attaches more and more importance to Xiaoyao Pavilion, and always feels that Xiaoyao Pavilion is the biggest trouble in his heart, in the past, Xiaoyao Pavilion and he were allies, he still doesn't feel that now Xiaoyao Pavilion has taken the initiative to go to the opposite side with him, which makes him feel extremely troublesome, and he has a feeling of being pinned down by all kinds.

Now the other party has not encircled him, and it can even be said that he connived at his existence, but even so, he still feels difficult.

"Mr. Qing, then in your opinion, if the Qianlong List wants to succeed, what should we do?" Lu An asked directly.

Mr. Qing didn't make a score, and replied directly: "The reason is very simple, that is, let go of your arrogance this time, honestly send people to find geniuses from all over the world, beg them to participate, and even reimburse the so-called carriage and horse expenses, and provide the necessary weapons and pills, do you understand what I mean?"

Lu An frowned and nodded, "The summary is just one word, ask?"

"That's right, just begging, you have to beg others to participate, these geniuses are willing to come, then your hidden dragon list can be regarded as golden, those people don't come, your list is just rubbish to the truth!" Mr. Qing said very bluntly.

bluntly made Lu An cough softly.

Mr. Qing continued with a disdainful face: "Now what you are doing is nothing more than others giving you face, they came, face is like a favor, give it and it will be gone, how much favor do you plan to owe them?"

Lu An nodded again, realizing this, it is not a loss to the old rivers and lakes, this is really to the point, he just saw the things in front of him now, and was dazzled by this prosperity.

Mr. Qing poured himself a cup of tea, and said quite boredly: "The advice I gave you is the stupidest advice, but it is the most useful advice, of course, if you have better suggestions in the future, you can also change the policy, but I advise you not to lose this, after saying so much, it depends on whether you can help this time, otherwise, no one will come to join in the fun next time." ”

Lu An nodded very seriously, "Thank you, Mr. for your advice!"

Mr. Qing nodded silently, drank all the tea in front of him, and put the teacup on the table very solemnly, "After you have said these things, it's time to get down to business, what happened in Zhongzhou?

"Sir, haven't you heard about what happened in Zhongzhou?" asked Lu An a little surprised.

Mr. Qing nodded, "I've heard about it, but I don't know if it's true or not, a sentence of the Demon Domain outbreak really makes me a little hard to believe, I think there may be something hidden in it, right? Besides, about you, Zhongzhou didn't even mention a word, which made me very surprised, could it be that the essence of the five elements is now a rotten street?"

Lu An touched his nose, and he didn't dare to tell the truth completely, so he could only nod, "It's a little strange, but this matter doesn't have much to do with me, because when it happened, I was in a coma, so I can't tell what the situation is." ”

"Oh, really?" Mr. Qing looked at Lu An with a surprised expression.

Lu An nodded hurriedly, there was no problem with what he said, because he was indeed in a coma, and he really didn't know how the Demon Domain broke out.

"So, this matter has nothing to do with you?" Mr. Qing still asked in a questioning tone.

Lu An didn't nod, but he didn't shake his head either, "Mr. Qing, this matter is more complicated to say, and it has something to do with you, but this is not a relationship dominated by me, I am just involved in it, and Wu Xie is also in Zhongzhou." ”

"Oh, no wonder, if this matter has something to do with Wu Jie, then it has something to do with you, I understand what you mean, but what about others now? are they still in Zhongzhou? are they ready to grab luck?" Mr. Qing asked thoughtfully.

Lu An nodded, and said with a shocked face: "I really can't hide from Mr.'s eyes, that's right, it is said to be like this, in fact, I didn't see Wu Jie, I was still in a coma at that time, it was Tang Geng who told me." ”

Mr. Qing nodded slowly, but his expression looked a little bad, "Even if the half-saint of Zhongzhou is dead, Wu Xie wants to become a half-saint in Zhongzhou, this is not an easy thing, and the person who stopped him is not very powerful?"

"What do you mean?" Lu An looked at Mr. Qing incomprehensibly.

"If no one stopped Wu Jie, how could there be no news at all now, this is not in line with common sense! The scene of the battle of luck should be very strong, and now Zhongzhou is so quiet, it can only prove that Wu Xie has been dragged down. Mr. Qing explained.

Lu An was stunned for an instant, and a very ominous premonition crept directly into his heart.

"It must be that man, that old man!"
