Chapter 217: Parade
But then I thought, oh...... It's the same as when I corresponded - they should know that they have not a firm foothold in Mengjiatun, and even if some requests are made to themselves, they should be useless, so it is better not to say it.
Li Bochen previously felt that Sui Buxiu would strike while the iron was hot after seeing that he had received this big lance. But now that I know that he really came to apologize and has been waiting outside the door for so long, I can't help but feel a little sorry in my heart. I wanted to remind him that Chang Xiu would not allow them to come to Mengjiatun, but he was afraid that there would be a bitter battle waiting for them in the future, but he knew that he should not be emotional-this kind of thing...... It's also a "militaristic event".
Sui Buxiu walked into the courtyard and seemed to see what he was thinking, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Chang doesn't seem to want to see me these days. I have a few words that I would like to ask Brother Li to convey to him. ”
Li Bochen said: "You say." ”
"We will not stay in Mengjiatun, we will take Houcheng. ”
"Again—if we want to gain a foothold in Houcheng, we will form an alliance with Brother Li. If Brother Li is interested, we will respect you as the lord of Beichen. ”
Li Bochen was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief and arched his hand: "Okay, I will definitely bring this to me." ”
Sui Buxiu saluted him again and walked out of the door.
Only after hearing the sound of his footsteps getting farther away did Li Bochen say in his heart, I don't know what his grandfather would say when he heard what he said! In the afternoon, the three of them talked in the house for a long time before deciding on a countermeasure, but Sui Wuyi had already thought of it...... In fact, he is preparing for the capture of Hou Cheng!? This man is simply terrifyingly shrewd...... No wonder he was able to survive so long in the Infinite City!
When he thought of this, he felt a chill run down his spine. At this time, I suddenly heard a click in the east, and immediately shouted: "Who!?"
But then he reacted - the voice came from the east chamber, it was Fang Qi. I just thought about him and forgot about him.
I saw Fang Yan push the door and walk out quickly, and said, "Yes...... It's me!"
He took two quick steps and walked closer, and before Li Bochen could speak, he knelt down with a puff and said, "The lord of the country!
Did he just listen? Hey, that's fine.
Li Bochen helped him up and said, "Brother Fang—"
Fang Yan immediately said: "The villain doesn't dare. ”
Li Bochen thought about it, and said in his heart, okay. Some people are like themselves, although they also know what it means to be superior and inferior, but in their hearts they don't feel that they are a head shorter than others. But there are also some people like Fang Yan, who really want to treat him like a friend, but make him uncomfortable, and there is no need to force him.
Then he said: "Okay, Fang Yan - but don't call me any country lord, if you really want to call me, just call me a general." ”
Fang Yan shouted: "I am willing to die for the general!"
Li Bochen smiled: "Let's talk about it later, let's sleep first today." I'll go get you a bedding. ”
Fang Yan opened his mouth, and Li Bochen said, "Don't say it, just live with me." ”
He turned around and went into the house, hugged a futon and came out again, but saw Fang Yu walking to the door of a room in the upside-down room and waiting for him. In this kind of courtyard, the east wing is for juniors or guests, and the inverted seat room is for servants. He felt that he was living in the East Chamber.
Li Bochen said in his heart, let him go. Then he handed him the bedding and said, "Rest early, and recuperate from your wounds." ”
Fang Yan said: "Respect the order!"
Li Bochen waved his hand and went back to the house.
Today, I was sweating all over, and half of my clothes were soaked with blood from the wounds. But the wound has almost healed, only the clothes are still hard. Li Bochen walked into the house with the talisman lamp in the hall, took off his coat, and took off his armor again, only then did he remember that the horse had stayed in Chang's house.
But he didn't bother to care anymore, fell down on the bed, and lay down.
This house is still the same as the day before yesterday. He said in his heart.
There was some soreness in his chest, but he immediately took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. There are some things that grief is useless and useless. He now carries a lot of things on his body, and he can no longer be as willful as he was more than twenty days ago. He reached out and grabbed the short brown in his arms, lifted the quilt and put it on his body, and fell into a deep sleep in a few moments.
When I woke up in the morning, I heard the sound of water in the courtyard, followed by the sound of wood and stones colliding. Li Bochen was stunned for a moment, and realized that it should be Fang Yu fetching water—was he boiling water for himself to cook? He wanted to open his mouth so that he didn't have to be busy, but after thinking about it, he didn't make a sound.
said in her heart, Fang Qi came with her, and she didn't know what happened to her mother. But this person is very filial, and he should have arranged it before doing such a thing as kidnapping Yu Meng's family. And Yu Meng's person doesn't seem to be small, so he shouldn't embarrass an old woman. If Sui Wujiao really takes Hou Cheng in the future, it will be easy to do. However, I hope that when he attacks the city, he can use less thunder means, so as not to suffer the people in the city.
He took a deep breath, and always felt that there was still some faint residual fragrance on the futon, so he lay down for a while. I watched the sunlight walk slowly on the ground, and I cursed in my heart again.
In a flash, I had reached another realm.
Yesterday he brought all the 5,000 catties of grain with him. The fifty sacks, which had filled a small room, were now deflated. Li Bochen lifted a bag and carried it, only to feel that it was empty. He tried to tear the sack open, but he couldn't tear it, and then he knew that it was not a mortal thing, so he cut a hole with his magic knife and fell to the ground.
Only a handful of more piles were poured out, black-brown, like ashes. But in this world, there will be no waste, right? Li Bochen squatted down and twisted a little and tasted it, feeling that his mouth was a little hot, and the taste was extremely strong. It's not all rice, it's more like a pot.
The original wood has been tempered by the spiritual power of this realm, and it is stronger than gold and iron. These grains should be very different, perhaps the essence has been condensed into one place, and there is even some more aura. It's just that it's not much out of the way now, and it seems that it will take a few more days.
Thinking of the "days", he felt a little embarrassed.
Every time he came here, time stood still outside. He had brought in a broken pot before, and he had observed it carefully, and finally realized that although they would slowly change here, they would only change when he was in this realm.
In other words, if he brings things in and never comes back, those things will probably be the same. From the time he first came to this realm to now, the time he has been here has only added up to more than ten days. He originally thought that if he wanted to really lead the army in the future, there were three things that were crucial - salt, iron, and grain. If you don't eat salt, you don't have the strength, you can't make armor without iron, and if you don't have food, it goes without saying.
There is no shortage of salt in Mengjiatun, and I heard Chang Qiuwu say that there is a salt well near Mengjiatun, and although the quality of the salt produced in the well is not good, it can also be eaten. The life of the people in Tunzhong is relatively rich compared to other places, mostly because of the salt well.
Iron is easy to do. There was so much wood in the mountains that he could bring it in. Food is also easy to manage, and it is also brought in. He guessed that if these ashes-like things were taken out again, they would have a miraculous effect.
But the problem is that if he is not here, time will stop passing, and he can't really spend all his days here. Besides, he thought that he couldn't do it - the spiritual power here was too strong, and if he stayed for a few hours in a row, he would feel that the spiritual power in his body was stagnant, and he had to breathe for a few days before he could get rid of it.
But when he was away, he was not idle. Outside the ghost gate, there are already boundless yin spirits at this time, and I don't know how many there are.
If he can make the yin spirits here start to reincarnate again, he can also pick those who have committed the most evil crimes to temper the yin soldiers.
Demon lord doppelganger, alas. He originally wanted to see if he could figure out some things in the cave ruins of the Thundercloud Cave, and then try to see if he could leave a demon lord clone behind when he entered the Dragon and Tiger Realm, so that he could also figure out a lot of secrets. Now, although we are closer to this goal, we have to do it as soon as possible.
Chang Xiu said that he could seal the mountain, and maybe in a few days, he would teach himself the method. As for the matter of the cave - if the mountain monarch is really sealed and the mountain monarch is asked to come to find it, wouldn't it be effortless!
He took another handful of ashes, put it in his mouth, tasted it, and escaped.
He got up and put on his clothes and walked into the courtyard, Fang Yu came over with a basin of hot water, and said, "General, I have boiled the water." ”
Li Bochen smiled: "Thank you." ”
He took the water and the handkerchief, washed his face in the courtyard, wiped his upper body again, and walked back to the house to replace the short brown that Xiao Man had left behind. Fang Yan brought in some bread and shredded pickles and put them on the table. Li Bochen said strangely: "Where did the pickles come from?"
Fang Yi said: "In the morning, a lady surnamed Meng came and sent some cakes and vegetables—Mr. Chang also came and brought the horse. Immediately, I unloaded the armor in the study. ”
It's Meng Niangzi - she's well-informed. Li Bochen sat down and said, "Fang Yuan, let's eat together." ”
Fang Yan hesitated slightly, but finally said, "Okay." ”
Last night, when he heard that he was a descendant of the Li royal family, he should have been shocked, so he lost his temper. But Fang Qi is very smart, he should know that he doesn't like restraint either, maybe he has eased his mind now. Li Bochen has always had a big appetite, but this morning he felt that he couldn't eat it. He thought about it, and knew that it must be because of the handful of ashes he had eaten before he came out.
But he didn't want Fang Yu to misunderstand, so he stuffed a few cakes into his stomach before he said, "Brother Fang, I didn't have time to ask you yesterday, does your mother matter?"
Fang Yi put down his chopsticks and said, "Back to the general, I have already settled her before I did the work, and I also kept the money." When I have a chance in a few days, I'll take her over. ”
Li Bochen nodded, and Fang Qi saw that he didn't speak, so he picked up the chopsticks again.
Li Bochen thought again, Fang Yun went to himself, what should he do? He is also a cultivator, he should lead the troops, but the matter of leading the troops ...... Oh, no. Fang Qi used to work in the Zhangcheng Kongming Society, and he seemed to be a small leader, and he also knew some ways to rule, right? Then he said: "Brother Fang, are you willing to join the army?"
Fang Yi put down the chopsticks again and said, "Obey!"
In fact, Li Bochen also wanted to tell him that since he used the pill to urge the realm to nourish qi in a very short period of time, he must not take shortcuts in the future, and should carefully cultivate and consolidate. But looking at his posture, if he opened his mouth, he would not be able to eat this meal, so he planned to talk about it later.
After the two finished eating, Li Bochen walked to the study and saw Fang Yu scrubbing the rest of his armor. He slowly put on his armor, put on the magic knife again, and walked back to the east room to remove the other knife hanging on the wall.
This knife was obtained from Zhangshan Jun's cave, and Xiao Man didn't bring it with him when he left. He broke Fang Tan's saber in the Cutting Gold Pavilion, and said, "Fang Tan, this knife will pay you - it can be regarded as a treasure." ”
Fang Yan solemnly took the knife, slowly tied it around his waist, straightened his chest, and said, "General Xie gives the knife!"
Li Bochen smiled: "Come with me." There's a bunch of things to do today. ”
Yesterday, I said goodbye to Chang Xiu and Chang Qiuwu, and today I want to show my face nearby-in the past, when Zhu Hou was here, people's hearts were quite stable. But as soon as Zhu Hou died, the outside was surrounded again, and there was a sense of panic in the tunzi. Although he is not a lonely man at the moment, he should at least let the people here know that there is a new master.
The two of them led their horses to the usual house, and saw from a distance that there were already a bunch of people at the door—it was the fifty or so soldiers from yesterday. Chang Xiu and Chang Qiuwu both showed up, Chang Xiu stood in front of the door and talked to the two of them, Chang Qiuwu saw him from a distance, and immediately greeted him, and said, "Junhou." ”
He had a cloak on his arm, and it looked very thick. Li Bochen said: "Chang-Fengzhi, are you going to Jinghu Mountain?"
Chang Qiuwu unfurled his cloak: "Let's put this on first." ”
In this exhibition, I saw that this thing was bright red, and it looked new and shiny in the sun, and it didn't seem to be a mundane thing. Li Bochen thought about the scene when he first saw Sui Buzhi - he was standing at the head of the Infinite City, and he was also wearing a red cloak, which was extremely conspicuous.
He didn't like to show off very much, but he knew what Chang Qiuwu meant, so he put it on, and when he boarded, he felt that his figure was much more majestic and tall.
Chang Qiuwu said again: "Prince, please get on the horse." ”
Li Bochen was stunned, and thought that they would announce their identities to the more than fifty soldiers first—was this about to leave? Chang Qiuwu pulled the reins, slowly walked to the front of Chang Mansion, and said, "Ancestor, the prince has arrived. ”
Li Bochen wanted to say hello to Chang Xiu, but when he saw that he was wearing a dress today-maybe the dress when he was a Shaoqing of Taichang Temple in the past-and had a straight face, he didn't smile, so he didn't speak.
Chang Xiu saluted him and said, "Prince, the generals have been ordered and are ready to be pulled." ”
Li Bochen thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Okay." ”
Chang Qiuwu pulled the reins and led him down the slope, and Chang Xiu followed behind. Fang Yan was stunned, hurriedly squeezed in front of the pile of soldiers, and followed.
Such a group of people walked along the dirt road to the town, and only Li Bochen sat alone on the horse. He saw that Chang Xiu was also walking, and he felt a little uncomfortable, but he also understood their intentions - the two people who were highly respected in this tun, one leading the horse for himself, and the other following behind him, was more effective than any announcement, so he also made a straight face, put one hand in front of the saddle, and the other held down the handle of the knife.
After walking for a while, I suddenly heard one of the soldiers in the group behind me shouting: "Father, old folks, I will go to Jinghu Mountain today, and the prince will open a warehouse to release grain——"
