At dusk, the heavy rain becomes smaller, the sky is brighter than noon, the county seat is deserted, there are few pedestrians all the way, even the most lively Nantiao Street in Suchang, it is bustling on weekdays, at this moment the door can be crowded, only the county government is in full swing.

The rain was so dense that there were thousands of adult men picking rocks and moving dirt, a small number of soldiers patrolling with knives, and even fewer figures in uniforms to build a targeted defensive line.

A team of knights in robes inspected the aisle at the city gate and galloped in, and at this time Le Ma was in the middle of the long street, and he was also surprised to see the scene of the construction site in front of him.

The leader carefully sensed the nearby arrangement, and reviewed the inner disciples of the same company: "This county order is a bit of a deed, the city defense is solid, the morale and preparation are better than the two counties from the south, it seems that there is still salvation."

"Senior brother is out of the horse, what demon dares to come......"

"Don't say that, I've laid a new foundation, and the Youshui Sutra can't be said to be familiar yet...... It can only be said that this rainy day is very favorable. The elder brother stared at him for a moment and said with a smile.

This senior brother has recently laid the foundation, and his strength and identity have skyrocketed, and he has fluctuated slightly, but his tone is still used to being humble, and he hides this trace of arrogance very well.

How could the same door not hear the meaning, and the sycophants slapped louder: "Fortune and law couples, thanks to the frequent tides of spiritual power in the past two years, the elixir produced in the blessed land of the door has increased greatly...... It's a pity that we don't have enough qualifications, we don't have enough merit, and we have limited resources in exchange, so we can't take this step for a long time...... How can it be compared to the senior brother, I'm afraid that when this battle is over, the canonization of the real name will come down, right?"

"Hehe......" The senior brother smiled and said nothing.

Seeing that the senior brother was in a good mood, some acquaintances were instigated by his companions and asked, "The list given by the state is not all in the army, how did the master assign us here?"

The inner disciples don't look at the elite in the door, the cultivation pressure is very high, and it is rare for them to be able to break away from the hard life of the mountain gate, and this is the time to relax, so they all echoed: "Yes, the state army is encircling and suppressing the evil demons, and the accumulation of merit is extremely fast, and the exchange for spiritual resources is fast, and it is convenient to send it to this remote county?"

"The second senior brother and the fifth senior brother are all assigned to the army, so we are assigned here?"

Senior Brother shook his head at this: "You have to accept these ideas, there are some important things to come here, and I, Lu Xiuping, will not take you to do useless things." ”

In recent years, the Youshui Gate has been dominant in the Yunshui Sect, different from the arbitrariness of the Yunxin Gate, the Youshui Gate has always been selected and inherited according to the degree of accumulation, and it must be the disciple with the deepest accumulation to achieve victory, and the competition between several of the best disciples is very fierce in this regard, even if the spiritual pool is opened up and the real person is achieved, it can only be said that he is slightly ahead of half a step.

It's far from time to relax

Lu Xiuping groaned, and secretly transmitted a message to them: "Master wants me to protect a person, in Yejiazhuang, not far northwest of the city, once she is attacked by demons, rescue her......"

"If it goes well, maybe it will be your little junior sister in the future...... In addition, Lu Ming, the county commander of this county, has a little relationship with the sect, and the Yun family of the wife's family has a deep relationship with the Northern Netherworld Sect of the Lingzhou Black Vein Sect, so it is beneficial to our sect to protect this person...... These two things are related to the future of the sect, and they are the layout, do you understand?"

"Hey, that's ......"

"What is the name of the little junior sister, what is her talent, and is she beautiful?" Someone asked, which caused a commotion, and they were all young people.

Lu Xiuping also laughed, in fact, he knew that Master Yu Haizi's failure to accept this favorite closed disciple was hindered by her husband, who was a jinshi......

"It's a pity in peacetime, the door will not turn against a celestial man, but gradually there will be troubled times, the Jinshi in the Taiping period can adapt to this? There is always a chance...... If you don't have a chance, you can conjure up a chance, right?" Yu Haizi's hint was still in his ear, and the man just smiled.

"I heard that this woman has not lost her Yin Yuan, and it shows that her husband also has some ideas, and he is quite far-sighted, but when he meets me, he ......" He thought calmly in his heart, and began to plan to start acting in this county......

These plots will not be mentioned to others, but only laugh and listen to their nonsense.

An inner disciple suddenly remembered: "Speaking of this, I remembered that in the previous preliminary trial, I met a little junior sister surnamed Cao, who was also a Pingshou person, and her appearance, talent, and temperament were among the best among the female disciples at that time, and I heard that her home lived in the north of the city...... It's a pity that she is a magician entrusted by the family to cultivate, and after the initial practice, she refused to stay in the sect and went back soon. ”

Lu Xiuping became a little interested: "Oh, can there be such a person among the female disciples? That's rare, when you point it out to me, it's the same door after all, we should ...... to rescue it."

The horses' hooves roared, and a group of people were in high spirits and passed through the formation in a very high-profile manner.

The soldiers on the side of the street were all sideways, but this team of more than a dozen horsemen, the powerful spiritual pressure on their bodies could even be clearly felt by mortals, and they only felt that this was a true temperament under awe.

Until the gate of the county office, Lu Ming, who was pacing anxiously inside, heard the report, and immediately greeted him: "The person who came is a senior disciple of the Youshui Gate?"

Lu Xiuping was still inadvertent, thinking that he was just a scribe, but when he saw the three-foot clear light of the void above this person, he was shocked...... This is the same Jinshi, the county order Lu Ming welcomes him personally?

Not to mention the relationship between this person and the Northern Hell Sect of the Great Sect of Lingzhou, Lu Ming alone is worthy of friendship, at this time, the official has accumulated luck, and he may not be a real person another day, a thousand miles a day, first the Tao and then the Fa, and the cultivation speed is far faster than that of ordinary real people

I didn't dare to hold it up at the moment, turned over and dismounted, and saluted and said: "Youshuimen Lu Xiuping, I came here on the order of the teacher, and I have seen my lord." ”

Confirming that it was to aid the Xianmen, Lu Ming was very happy: "Okay, it's good to come, hurry up and enter." ”

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist will take me to see the magic circle arranged first, I will bring a lot of spiritual weapons......"

"Okay, well, please come here ......" Lu Ming led the way to look around: "This is the base of the magic circle, I have been rebuilding it since the second year of taking office, there are two crossbow arrays on this side, and the one standing on that side is the famous Taoist priest of the county county road department, and now there are Taoist friends from Youshuimen, which can be said to be worry-free......"

Lu Xiuping got up to browse, saw that the defense was tight, and sighed slightly: "Although it is not as good as the mountain gate mountain protection array, it is really good, this is the adult himself who came up with it, which is enough to show that it is clever, and it is really a high-level avenue with far-reaching feelings." ”

"Oh, I really don't dare to take this seriously, it's not my merit, this is the standard precaution model that the imperial capital urgently summoned to the states. Lu Ming hurriedly waved his hand and said.

Lu Xiuping was stunned, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel excited, looked at it more carefully, and quietly remembered that although the standard formation of the imperial court was not very profound, it was rigorous and rigorous, and it was very impressive.

Smiled at the moment: "...... It's no wonder that even if three or four real people come at the same time, they can last for half a day, and with this time, the county town will be able to come to the warcerer to support. ”

Lu Ming listened to it with a slight relief, such a professional's judgment would not be wrong, and sent the group of Youshuimen to the side compartment to rest, and then returned to the front scene.

At this time, the county Cheng Lan Chongwen came from the backyard and said: "The women and children who came to take refuge have been counted, and there are 3,000 people, all of whom are gathered in the back garden of the mansion...... It's a little crowded, I'll give you all the flowers and plants you planted...... Ahem

"It's okay, if you don't, I'll be angry. Lu Ming smiled, remembered a little more, and asked, "Are all the families coming closer?"

"Those who are close have all responded, they have entered the city before dusk, but there is no way to ...... a little farther away," Lan Chongwen said, and explained: "There are also several townships in the north that are mountainous, and communication is difficult, and more than a dozen families, including the Ye family, have not replied. ”

"There is nothing wrong in the north, it is the Ye family's defense area, the Ye family is heavily protected, there are three hundred soldiers, there is a dock fort, there is a magic circle, and there is a Bangyan Gong presiding, it is the northern defense line, there will be no major incidents. ”

"And the Ye family has set up a Dao Law interrogation plate, I contacted Ye Qing to convey the order, saying that everything is normal, and I also dropped an evil demon last night, and asked someone to send me a piece of barbecue. ”

"Uh, barbecue?" Lan Chongwen listened in a daze, not knowing what this meant.

Lu Ming just smiled: "Reward the soldiers, that's what he said...... I don't understand it, anyway, it's fine, so I rewarded it, and those who have used it say it's good, and it's very energetic. ”

"Oh, it's mostly the spirit meat from the Ye family, the Ye family is very rich now, ......" chatting casually all the way, Lu Ming returned to the room.

I saw a long sword hanging on the wall and a book erected, but there was nothing long, which could show Lu Ming's temperament, and Lan Chongwen secretly praised it in his heart when he saw it.

The two of them were drinking tea and wanted to take a break, when a scribe came in a hurry, and when he entered, he leaned over and said, "My lord, this is the message of the Ye family."

Lu Ming was still smiling at the beginning, and opened it casually, but when he saw it, his face suddenly turned pale, and he almost made him drop his glass: "...... Who does he think he is, this is not the lower earthly realm that he can roam."

Lan Chongwen pinched the message and read it, the words were shocked, and his expression changed: "My lord, what should I do?"

“...... No, I'll have to go over and pull people back. Lu Ming paced with his hands behind his back, hurried a few steps, and finally couldn't bear it, and as he spoke, he wanted to get up.

Lan Chongwen was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "County Jun, it's too risky to go at this time, look at this day, it's going to be night, this is the peak of external demon activity, and it is very likely that you will bump into it on the road."

At this time, even the Yun clan not far away couldn't help but rush out.

"You take Xian'er to stay inside, don't come out" before he came over, and saw Lu Ming drop this sentence, ordered a small group of cavalry to rush out of the ya, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Yun Shi settled down, stopped at the door, and grabbed the scribe who reported the news: "Tell me, what's going on?"

"Mrs. Hui, Bangyan Gong is unwilling to take refuge in the county, and has raised the flag to gather troops to fight to the death with the demons, and more than a dozen large families in the northwest of the county have responded with it, and they have ordered thousands of ......troops."

Lan Chongwen saw that she was a little puzzled, and lowered his voice to explain: "Lord Lu is taking a risk here, but there is also a reason why he has to do it, the Ye family is the northwest barrier of the county, once it is broken, the county will be very passive, this is the truth of the cold lips and teeth." ”

When the Yun family heard this, he hated it in his heart, and twisted Yun Pa with his hand: "This Ye Qing ...... Husband, you must not have any problems."
