Chapter 441: Jincheng and the capital

"General Luo, order the army to enter the city and hand over to Lu Sizheng. In the future, we must fulfill our duties loyally, perform our duties, and strive to restore Jincheng to its former prosperity as soon as possible, or even more prosperous. ”

At this time, Li Chengjie sat in the yamen of the Jincheng Terracotta Division and said majestically.

"Yes, sir!"

When Luo Zhong heard this, Li Chengjie had already discussed this matter with him, and now he said it in public, which is to go through the motions, which can be regarded as issuing a formal notice.

"Lord Li, may I ask, does General Luo want to stay in Jincheng? Dare to ask what position he holds? But there is an order from the imperial court, and why does General Luo want to hand over to the lower officials?"

When Lu Feng heard it at this time, he sensed that something was wrong. He was resting in his room just now, and then someone came to say that Li Chengjie had something important to announce, and asked him to hurry to the door to listen to the training. So Lu Feng hurried over.

"Oh, Lu Sizheng, this matter is in a hurry, and it is also in a hurry. This official has now appointed General Luo to temporarily serve as the city lord of Jincheng, lead the army to station, and temporarily take charge of everything in Jincheng, especially security and defense. ”

"In this matter, after the official returns to Kyoto, he will ask the imperial court for an order, and Lu Sizheng does not have to worry. As the saying goes, the general is outside, and the prince of the prison country has also given the official the right to act cheaply. ”

When Li Chengjie heard this, he looked at Lu Feng with a smile and said in a deep voice. It seems that Li Chengjie's attitude is surprisingly good, and in the face of Lu Feng's questioning, Li Chengjie feels as ordinary as drinking water. There's nothing weird about it.

"The Prince of the Prison Country......"

Lu Feng's eyes were slightly cloudy, and he muttered softly. His heart sank, but his face did not change, and he smiled back at Li Chengjie.

Now that Li Chengjie and Luo Zhong are leading troops to besiege the city, even if he has objections, he has no power to resist.

"Yes, the lower officials will cooperate well with General Luo. Oh, no! It's to cooperate with the Luo City Lord and manage the daily affairs in Jincheng together. Please rest assured, Lord Li!"

Lu Feng bowed to Li Chengjie, and then said in a firm tone.

"Eh, Lu Sizheng, this official can make other arrangements for you. ”

"There is merit in recovering Jincheng, and as you said, there are some things you can't do before, although the official doesn't want to be investigated, but he always needs Lu Sizheng to give an explanation to the court. ”

"Please also ask Lu Sizheng to immediately order all the officials of the Jincheng Terracotta Division to be gathered and handed over to General Luo, and then set off for Beijing with this official. Explain the events of the past few days clearly, whether it is merit or demerit, reward and punishment, and play a ruling!"

Li Chengjie got up slightly, clenched his fists and soared into the sky, full of respect for the royal family.

"Master Li, are you saying that you want to lead all the officials of the Jincheng Terracotta Division to enter Beijing with you?

Lu Feng listened to Li Chengjie's words, although his words were plain and his expression was warm, but Lu Feng always felt very infiltrating when he sounded. It's as if Kyoto is a purgatory on earth, and there is always "no return".

"Eh, Lu Sizheng don't have to worry, this official said that for Lu Sizheng's previous actions, this official does not want to be held accountable, although Jincheng once fell into the hands of the enemy, but now Lu Sizheng has taken a step ahead of this official to recover Jincheng. It's a great achievement. ”

"Lu Sizheng is with peace of mind to enter Beijing with this official, and this official will say a few good words for Lu Sizheng in front of the emperor. Lu Sizheng once rescued my Dali Temple's headcatcher Yun Luohan, and the favor owed by his subordinates will be repaid by this official, the Dali Temple!"

"Bring more officials from the Soldiers and Horses Division, and you can also add a few more strokes to Lu Sizheng's merit book, and if there is a reward, the brothers can also follow suit. It is not in vain that those brothers of yours before said so many good things for you in front of me. ”

Li Chengjie's smile was very kind, as if it was all out of kindness.

"Yes, then the lower official is better to obey his fate respectfully, thank you Master Li for your cultivation. ”

When Lu Feng heard this, he nodded with a smile, as if he completely believed what Li Chengjie said, and had already painted in his mind many happy pictures after entering Beijing.

"Well, then Lu Sizheng, let's go and prepare quickly, and in an hour we will leave for Beijing together, and we will return to Kyoto before dark. This official has already sent a message to the prince, and tonight is the celebration banquet we are waiting for!"

Li Chengjie walked in front of Lu Feng while speaking, smiled and reached out to pat Lu Feng's shoulder, as if it was an alternative reward.

"Yes, the next official will do it. ”

"General Luo, please wait. ”

Lu Feng took three steps back, bowed, and said in a deep voice, then turned to leave.

Luo Zhong also bowed his hand to Lu Feng and signaled friendship. After Lu Feng left, Luo Zhong walked to Li Chengjie's side, and Liu Yuan and Dugu Invincible also gathered around.

"Big brother, second brother, hard work!"

Li Chengjie nodded at Liu Yuan and Dugu Invincible, and then said softly.

"Third brother, rest assured. ”

Liu Yuan and Dugu Invincible glanced at each other, and then the two soldiers divided into two ways, one on the other, and began to search the Terracotta Division.

"Master Li!"

Luo Zhong also clenched his fists at this moment and said.

"Luo Zhong, remember what I told you before. For the sake of your own life, and for the sake of the soldiers of the whole army, you must act cautiously, and there must be no mistakes, you must know that any small mistake may cost you your life!"

Li Chengjie's words are extremely heavy, and "lust is strong" is probably nothing more than that.

"Yes, Master Li! ”

Luo Zhong nodded firmly and said in a deep voice. The matter that Li Chengjie handed over to Luo Zhong this time certainly has the wealth of "pouring the sky", but the danger in it can be imagined. If you stay in Jincheng, you may be "retaliated" by the Chen family or Xu Xian at any time.

"Well, City Lord Luo, then Jincheng will be entrusted to you!"

"If it is successful, in addition to what I promised General Luo before, the court will definitely have a reward!"

Li Chengjie also saluted Luo Zhong slightly, in fact, to tell the truth, Li Chengjie left this Luo Zhong and the whole army behind, completely throwing them into the "fire pit" and putting them in "absolute" danger. Li Chengjie still can't bear it.

"Master Li doesn't have to worry, it's all for the sake of the Immortal Dynasty!"

"I'm willing to go to the soup for the Immortal Dynasty!"

Luo Zhong gave a serious military salute to Li Chengjie, and in his eyes, Li Chengjie could see the firmness of "no regrets even if he died".

"Good!"

Li Chengjie blinked his eyes and took a deep breath, since he had made up his mind, he should no longer hesitate to sway.

......

"City Lord Luo, the people of the Soldiers and Horses Division have gathered in the front hall, please move City Lord Luo, and also ask City Lord Luo to send someone to hand over together. ”

After a while, Lu Feng returned here and said loudly to Luo Zhong. At the same time, he signaled to Li Chengjie.

"Lu Sizheng has worked hard. ”

"City Lord Luo, go quickly!"

Li Chengjie waved his hand at the two of them at the same time and said slowly.

"Yes!"

Lu Feng and Luo Zhong answered in a deep voice at the same time, and then bowed down together and left, starting the handover.

"Third brother, I haven't found Yun Luohan's whereabouts. ”

As soon as Lu Feng left on his front foot, Liu Yuan showed his figure, walked in front of Li Chengjie, and said softly.

"Then we can only wait for the news of the second brother. ”

Li Chengjie nodded and said with a little disappointment.

However, as soon as Li Chengjie's words fell, the lonely and invincible walked over from the front, Li Chengjie looked at your solemn face, and there was a bad premonition in his heart, and the second brother of Bacheng also returned in vain.

"Third brother, there is no trace of Yunluohan. Maybe he really left on his own as Lu Feng said?"

Dugu Invincible saw that the eldest brother Liu Yuan and the third brother Li Chengjie were already sitting there waiting for him, and the face did not see joy, so he knew that the eldest brother should be the same as himself, and there was nothing to gain. Hence the saying.

"Did Yun Luohan really leave by himself?"

"He went there again, why didn't he go back to Kyoto, didn't go to him, and there has been no news so far. ”

And now, Yan Xuefei, the woman in the house, claims to be Yun Luohan's fiancΓ©e. Is it true or not?"

And why did Yun Luohan entrust his "fiancΓ©e" to Lu Feng?

"If what Lu Feng said is true, then Yun Luohan asked him to be careful of Su Pianran, what is it for?"

"Could it be that there is something wrong with Su Pianran, so should you be careful of Su Pianran, or should you be careful of the Immortal Competition?"

"After Yun Luohan came to this Jincheng, what happened to the Su family. When the Su family was slaughtered by Xu Chen for two days, what was Yun Luohan doing?"

"Would that woman connect it all?"

Li Chengjie fell into deep thought, only to feel that there seemed to be an "iron bump" growing in his brain, his head was swollen and painful, and it was sinking so much that he could hardly resist.

Li Chengjie's eyes were confused, his eyelids were violently patting up and down, Liu Yuan and Dugu Invincible saw this, they were very worried and reached out to help Li Chengjie, and asked, "Third brother, are you okay?"

Li Chengjie gasped and quickly sorted out his thoughts, there are too many mysteries, and forcibly connecting everything together, the amount of information is too huge.

Even with Li Chengjie's talent, under the high-speed operation of overload, his IQ is a little overwhelmed.

"Big brother, second brother, I'm fine!"

"I hope that nothing will happen to Yun Luohan. ”

Li Chengjie rubbed his head and said with a soft sigh.

"Well, although our brother doesn't know Yun Luohan very well, but in the eyes of the third brother, that Yun Luohan will definitely not be a fool, and he can serve as the head catcher of Dali Temple, and he should have something extraordinary. ”

"Even if there are some dangers, they can be saved in the end. ”

"On the road of life, no one can always be smooth sailing, without wind and waves. There are ups and downs, although it is not a smooth road, but it is also a good road. After going through turmoil, we can truly grow. ”

Liu Yuan said earnestly, and he also used this to lenient Li Chengjie.

"Well, this matter can only be discussed in the long run!"

"Big brother, second brother, clean up, and inform Yan Xuefei by the way, and after half an hour, set off for Beijing. ”

Li Chengjie sat up straight and used practical actions to tell Liu Yuan and Dugu that his body was fine. After that, he said lightly.

"Good. ”

Liu Yuan and Dugu Invincible also saw Li Chengjie's thoughts, and since Li Chengjie wanted to be alone for a while, they set aside some time for Li Chengjie. The two brothers, who understood it, didn't say anything more, and went their separate ways.

"Jincheng, Beijing?"

"Why do so many strange things happen every time I come to Jincheng? ”

And every time I return to Beijing, it seems that I "see the fog through the clouds", but in fact I am still in a mystery. ”

"The last time I came to Jincheng, although I figured out that the master was the identity of the stone binding, the stone statue in the "Shizi Binding Ancestral Hall" disappeared mysteriously, and a few people died inexplicably......"

Later, I went to the Xu family and the Su family, and when I saw the heads of the Xu, Chen, and Su families, I only felt that it was complicated. The head of the Su family seems to have an old relationship with the head of the Chen family, and he deliberately coerced me to spare Chen Shiping's life. ”

"But this time, when they came again, the Xu Chen family had already completely leveled the Su family. And looking at the destruction of the Su family, the Chen family should not have spared anything. If there is any plan between the Su family and the Chen family, it will not "break out" at this time?"

"What is this Su Pianran planning? As soon as he escaped from Jincheng, he entered the Tianji Tower, and began to compete for immortals strongly, attracting everyone to know. ”

"Moreover, it happened to be just after they destroyed the Xu family. If the Xu family is not dead, he will definitely be dead in Kyoto now. What the hell does this Su Pianran want to do......"

"Yun Luohan asked Lu Feng to pass the word, let me be careful of Su Pianran, did he find something in the Su family?"

"There is also why Yun Luohan found Lu Feng at that time. Because of what to entrust the woman to Lu Feng to take care of, he did not return to Kyoto or Dali Temple. What else is there to do that he must do immediately?"

Li Chengjie fell into deep thought again in an instant. He really couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't figure it out. Because in Li Chengjie's thinking, Yan Minghan should have had time to flee back to Kyoto with Yan Xuefei.

And why he didn't do it must have been delayed by something. So the question is, what is it, and how was Yun Luohan found out, and then made him take the most risky plan regardless of his life?"

Li Chengjie pursed his mouth, his eyebrows were about to twist, and his hands rubbed and pressed vigorously. Li Chengjie only felt that he had all the strength, but there was nowhere to go.

There is simply no point where he can "exert his strength".

"There's really a feeling, like an air game, as if when you punch, you've already lost. But if you don't punch, you don't have a chance to win. ”

The mystery of Jincheng forced Li Chengjie to a dead end. The narrow corner of the wall made Li Chengjie run into walls everywhere. ”

"And in this case, no matter how Li Chengjie tries his best, he can only find more corners, but what he can't find is a way out where he can see light and hope......"

Li Chengjie's heart was beating fast, and his heart was shrouded in dark clouds before. Fortunately, Li Chengjie's heart was not only shrouded in dark clouds, but also indifferently rained, the rain was cold, and it seemed to be eroding his blood bit by bit.

"Beijing, Jincheng?"

"Although the capital looks calm and serene on the surface, there is no wind or waves, and it is harmonious. But if you dig deep into the secrets buried under the capital, it will be treacherous and turbulent. Ordinary people can't touch it at all, let alone resist it. ”

And this Jincheng seems to be more mellow than the "cultivation" of the capital. Every time I come to Jincheng, I always feel that this city wants to eat people. There is always turmoil just from the obvious, but is it all as one seems?

Of course not, it seems that everything is floating on the surface, and it seems to be insignificant when taken out alone, let alone worth mentioning. But if you look into it, you can connect those little things together!

You will be shocked to find that the waves and secrets hidden under Jincheng are vaguely better than the capital. ”

"Kyoto is probably just a huge black market, open day or night. There are all sorts of dirty deals in the bright spots!"

But Jincheng is more like a real cage, and the people who are locked in this cage can only seem to be like outlaws, helplessly starting to play the same game, and this game has no rules, and the price of winning or losing is life and death. ”

Li Chengjie recalled today's inspection in Jincheng, "what is to regard life as a mustard", Li Chengjie has a deeper understanding.

"Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs. ”

"In a game that costs your life, if you lose, you will be more humble than a pig or a dog. ”

Li Chengjie walked through hundreds of streets in Jincheng and saw countless street corners. In the present Jincheng, where there is a dark place, there will be corpses piled up.

"Think about it, a city that looked so rich, at least on the surface, was suddenly an empty city. ”

"Nearly a third of the people in the city died, a third fled, and a third disappeared. ”

And those who survived were very small, and those who were optimistic about them compared to those who came before them in the city were two or three thousandths. Not to mention, some people's fear of Jincheng has been deeply rooted in their hearts, and I am afraid it will be difficult to leave ......"

Li Chengjie couldn't help but worry about this city.

"The land is innocent, and the bricks and tiles are innocent. ”

"I hope that with the change of owner, Jincheng can also have a new look. ”

Li Chengjie finally sighed. Get up slowly.

Counting the hour, it's almost time to leave for Beijing.

"Yun Luohan, give the official a good life, don't embarrass Dali Temple. Die outside, but no one will collect your body......"

Li Chengjie clenched his fists, and his eyes became more and more determined.
