Chapter 134: Jingguo Mission
Since he chose to become a side branch, he had to take on this responsibility, and the very conscious Peach Blossom Fairy took a group of female apprentices to the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes, and Qingyin, who also practiced the Five Poisons Sutra, also ran away, Yan Xu simply sent Jin Toad and Yu Niang over, the former is no stranger to poison, after all, what he practiced before was poison, and the latter may be from the nature of a fox, and he is also very interested in poison, and he also raised a different poisonous snake, and it is not bad to have a long experience.
There was another reason why Yan Xu sent them all away, their strength was still too low, rather than staying in Tianxiang City, where the war would start at some point, it was better to go to the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes to concentrate on cultivation.
As for their safety, the Peach Blossom Fairy itself is the Jindan Ancestor, and now she has turned to the Hundred Poisons True Scripture with great lethality, plus the two magic weapons in the Eight Treasures of the Hundred Poisons that Yan Xu helped refine in her hands, the ordinary Jindan Ancestor is not her opponent, with her protection, I believe that there is no problem with safety.
Just as Yan Xu expected, the peaceful life did not last long, and soon a team of people from the Jingguo Dynasty came to Tianxiang City, and it seemed that it was the mission under the banner.
Three thousand elite men and horses are not a force that can be ignored, enough to level most of the Baiman Mountain Realm, not to mention that there are two Jindan Ancestors in charge, which can already be comparable to the top forces here, such a force as an embassy, it seems that the intention is not so simple.
"Interesting, salute first, then soldiers, let me see what your idea is and let them in. Yan Xu, who was standing on the city wall, watched the military general who led the troops shoot a letter up the city tower, and he knew what was written on it without looking at it, and said to Qin Ming with a smile.
Qin Ming hadn't seen any kind of situation, so he nodded, except for mobilizing a team of people to guard the city gate, he directly ordered someone to open the city gate, which was very simple.
The military general outside the city was stunned for a moment, clasped his hands into fists, and then slapped his horse back to the army, saluted a civilian official wearing a five-rank official robe, and said.
"Lord Yan, the other party opened the city gate so quickly, the last general is worried about fraud, do you want to send someone to take over the city gate first and then let the army enter the city?" Although Jingguo has been in constant turmoil at the border pass, he has never allowed foreign enemies to enter the hinterland, so the court has been peaceful for a long time, and it has naturally become heavy on literature and light on military force, and at the same time, this is also to limit the growing border generals, so although this military general has the same official position as the other party, he still puts his position under the other party, and calls himself an adult, for fear of being hated by these scholars.
"General Xu doesn't need to be like this, there is a master here who has a slight relationship with the old man, I think he will give the old man three points of thin noodles, and I will wait for me to enter the city in a while, and let the army camp outside, remember not to disturb the people." Lord Yan stroked his beard with a smile and said, looking like he loved the people like a son, but it made General Xu smile bitterly, you have a relationship, he doesn't.
"Besides, the two immortal elders are here, even if there is an accident, it is enough to protect us. Lord Yan was scheming, and he had a good calculation, and his voice turned to appease General Xu, who was gloomy and uncertain.
If you don't seize the city gate, it won't cause conflicts, and it looks fair and easy to enter the city calmly, and the second sentence is to praise the two Jindan ancestors, which shows that this Lord Yan's IQ is definitely worthy of his official robe, and he speaks and does everything he can.
After the expansion of Tianxiang City can easily accommodate 100,000 people to live, because of the environment, the city wall is the top priority, three zhang high, worthy of the name of the strong city, the leader of the general Xu saw the thickness of the city wall when he stepped into the city gate, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, fortunately, Lord Yan is also here to do so, otherwise the other party will not let in, according to the order of the Ministry of War, he will have to attack the city, when the time comes, his three thousand men and horses are all dead, I am afraid that he will not be able to attack, and he is left with only a dead end, fortunately.
A group of strangers entering the city did not cause any panic, the people of Tianxiang City can be said to be well-informed, not to mention a team of strangers, even if the three thousand people outside the city enter the city together, they will not make a fuss, this is confident, if only three thousand people dare to mess around, there is no need to use the regular army, just the countless reserve militia hidden in the civilian population can kill them.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the lord of the city, please. Qin Ming got down the city wall and said to Lord Yan, who was a civil official at a glance, obviously he also knew that the current Jingguo was a civilian, noble and martial artist, and this kind of mission task must be headed by a civilian official.
"There's General Law. Lord Yan smiled and said in return, there was no dissatisfaction.
However, it is nothing that Lord Yan is a civil official, which General Xu is a little weak when he sees Qin Ming, not the gap in strength, but the momentum, Qin Ming has been fighting on the battlefield for decades, and there are no less than dozens of fierce generals who have died in his hands, and he is not only a peerless general, but also the generalissimo of the previous dynasty, at his peak, he commanded more than one million soldiers and horses across the country, and there were no less than 1,000 generals under him, and a partial general who commanded 3,000 soldiers and horses did not even have the qualifications to stand in front of him, I didn't dare to look up, for fear of making a fool of myself.
The two arrogant old men couldn't help but look at Qin Ming twice, but they didn't see anything, after all, Qin Ming's current situation was a bit special, he was neither a martial artist nor a monk, and ordinary people really couldn't see it.
"Lao Yao, do you see anything, I always think this person is a little strange?" The old man with the national character face secretly communicated with the black-faced old man next to him.
"Lao Qin, your cultivation eye is a must in our Tianfeng Academy, you can't even see it, what can I see?" Lao Yao replied secretly angrily.
"This person is deeply respected by the army and the people, he is full of incense and fire, and he is a general of a hundred battles, and his battlefield evil spirit is not trivial, my eyes are almost blind and I can't see clearly, let alone explore his reality and reality. "Lao Qin is also very depressed, his eyes can easily see through the illusion and the other party's hidden strength, but he is not Sun Monkey's fiery eyes, the incense cloud can barely see through, but if the battlefield evil qi is strong enough, it can even reach the level of punishing evil and breaking the law, unless he does it, otherwise he really can't do it with his eyesight alone.
These two are the two Jindan ancestors who came with the army, and they are responsible for showing force to find out information, so in addition to strength, one of them has also refined a magic eye secret technique, and is the best at perceiving the opponent's virtual reality.
But Qin Ming is an autopsy immortal, and he is the best at hiding, not to mention that his cultivation is not inferior to the other party, and he has a battlefield aura that is so thick that it can't be dissolved, and the other party can see his depth before he has a ghost.
The two of them have the heart to test it, but they are afraid that the other party has the same strength as the momentum, even if the strength is not as good as theirs, like this kind of military general who has been in a hundred battles and won the hearts of the military, he only needs to gather the nearby army, and the military spirit will be condensed, and the evil spirit will definitely skyrocket, and it will be very troublesome at that time, so he can only leave first, and then find a chance to test it in the future.
