When King Lu heard this, he laughed and said, "God is really helping me."
Xie Chengdong's heart skipped a beat. Although the governor and important officials of Qinzhou were detained immediately, and as soon as Suolong Pass fell, the entire Qinzhou was leaderless and could only be occupied. However, Han Hongwu only led 10,000 troops. By the second month, he had won consecutive victories so easily and occupied the whole state. It was a blessing from God. He didn't say anything for a while. He only felt a coldness on his face. When he looked up, he saw dark clouds and showers.
On the battlefield, General Gao Yunjia surrendered, and the sound of killing gradually stopped. At a glance, blood still flowed into a stream. King Lu immediately ordered: "These people are my subordinates now. Treat the wounded immediately and let military doctors take care of them. And cook some ginger soup to keep the soldiers away from the cold!"
"And investigate the number of casualties!"
"However, the main force of our army cannot stop and take advantage of the emptiness of the county to conquer it in one fell swoop."
"yes!"
Xie Chengdong listened silently, opened his eyes and looked at King Lu from a distance, then looked up and his heart trembled.
I saw that there was a light green aura on the top of King Lu's head, and the purple aura was hanging down from the top of his head, that's all. There were even water waves surrounding him.
Xie Chengdong looked at it and felt nauseous. The smell of blood came up. This was a backlash. He couldn't help but whisper: "Could it be that the blind Taoist is so accurate that King Lu really has a destiny?"
Suddenly I felt a little regretful about falling out with the blind Taoist, and thought to myself: "I wonder where he is now?"
As night falls, a full moon rises in the sky, and the mountains and plains are covered in silver, which is very beautiful. There are still a few rooms with lights on in the villages in the distance, and the stars are blinking from time to time.
"ah!"
Suddenly there was a scream that broke the tranquility of the night, and the room that was still lit with lights seemed to be frightened and went out instantly.
"Woof woof woof"
This scream sounded, along with the dogs barking, and many birds flew up from the trees in the panic.
A cave is dark and humid, with stalactites hanging upside down, and water droplets dripping from the top of the cave along the stalactites.
The blind Taoist was rolling and groaning in pain.
"No"
The blind Taoist struggled in pain, his hands constantly clasping and grabbing at his body, and he looked extremely painful. The veins on his neck were protruding, and his eyes were wide open. He looked extremely scary.
A little bit of black aura was surging around the blind Taoist, and a face seemed to be grinning ferociously in it.
"It's impossible for me to become one with you." The blind Taoist said painfully, and at this time he grabbed his hand hard, as if this hand was completely out of control.
After the blind Taoist finished speaking, his face suddenly changed, and his whole face showed a sneer: "You and your master, your master's master, haven't you always relied on the anchor to draw strength from it? Now that the strength is here, you just need to give up Your consciousness, you will gain incredible power.”
"If I lose consciousness, am I still the same?" The blind Taoist struggled, but this voice made a "chi" sound: "I am the origin, your current consciousness is just acquired false consciousness, give up consciousness, integrate into the origin, you It will be great too.”
"Become one with me, and you can become an earthly immortal. No, you can also become a true immortal in the future, and even become the master of this world. What are you resisting?"
"Besides, you can't resist it. Thousands of my incarnations are working together."
"Look, at the place you like, King Lu, we will turn soldiers into warriors, and warriors into powerful people. This is our chess piece."
"With them, you can't resist, so you might as well surrender." This voice is the devil's whisper, luring people into hell bit by bit.
"Dong dong"
The blind Taoist's body turned red for a while as his heart beat violently. The black energy swallowed up the blind Taoist's consciousness and soul bit by bit. As the black energy surged up, the pain and struggle on his face disappeared, and a smile appeared. Laughing, the blind Taoist's body stopped shaking and calmed down, leaving only the last bit of aura in his soul. At this moment, the three-faced giant phantom appeared, opened its mouth, and swallowed the aura in one gulp.
The blind Taoist smiled contentedly for a moment, his posture was a little stiff, and black energy came up little by little, just like a silkworm spinning its thoughts and spinning a web. His whole body was wrapped in a black cocoon, and the beating of his heart could be heard from inside. The sound, one after another, continued to spread.
The sound was inaudible to human ears and spread far away.
King Lu's Military Camp
People were coming and going in the military camp, and bonfires were lit everywhere.
"Haha, eat meat, eat meat." A group of armored soldiers were eating meat in front of the campfire. Today was such a victory that even the soldiers were eating meat.
In a tent in the military camp, several newly promoted battalions were drinking.
"Colonel, you killed the imperial cavalry and were promoted to the second level. It's really enviable." A battalion raised a wine glass and looked at the captain in front of him and said.
Li Hengyuan smiled and said, "There will be more opportunities like this in the future."
Seeing that everyone had stopped drinking to listen, he exhaled a breath of wine and said, "Don't be anxious, everyone. Think about it, the prince just raised the righteous army, and the number of soldiers at the beginning was only 20,000."
"Now it's over forty-five thousand here alone."
"There are more people, there are more officials, there are plenty of positions waiting for us, and fighting is not about seniority. Whoever can fight well and risk his life will be promoted. Brother, I am just taking the first step. There will be more accounts in the future." , there are many opportunities for everyone.”
These words were plain and sincere, and they spoke to everyone's heart. The Yingzheng present were all young, all in their mid-twenties, and they were in their prime. They all said for a while: "What the captain said is, come on, cheers."
Ying Zheng was toasting for a while. Li Hengyuan was about to speak when he suddenly heard a certain sound. His eyes turned red, his head shook and he said, "What sound?"
As he said this, his blood boiled all over for some reason.
"Roar" Li Hengyuan stood up, shouted, drew his sword and began to dance. Although the sword dance was rough, it seemed to have a unique charm.
One of the battalions was a little drunk. They were startled at first, and then shouted: "Good swordsmanship, no wonder Lieutenant Li can kill cavalry generals, but Captain, you are drunk."
Everyone laughed and said, "Colonel Li is drunk."
Not only that, there were dozens of people in the military camp who were all excited and shouting, their voices sounding like wolves, full of cheers.
Beijing·Pei Mansion
It is said that this courtyard is not very big, but it has a history. There is a tree in the courtyard with lush branches and leaves, which makes it dark and quiet. Sitting here in summer, the wind blows slowly, and there is no feeling of summer at all, even if there is light rain. , also blocked like an umbrella.
It can be said to be suitable for both sunny and rainy days.
At this time, the two of them were playing chess under the shade of a tree. Ren Wei was thinking intently when he heard Pei Ziyun say: "Ren Wei, you made a wrong move."
"I was dazzled and made the wrong move!" Ren Wei smiled.
"There are no regrets in playing chess." Pei Ziyun said, taking a white chess piece and placing it on it. Immediately, Ren Wei captured this piece, removing five or six pieces at once.
Seeing that Pei Ziyun had won the chess piece, Ren Wei was not angry. He looked at the sky and saw the mist of rain, and said, "It rains frequently in the capital these days. My chess skills are getting better."
"The tea is open, I'll pour it." Ren Wei said, turned off the tea stove, took the teapot and poured it into the cup. The tea leaves were sizzling, and a faint fragrance of tea immediately hit his nostrils.
Taking the tea, he took a leisurely sip. The bitter taste turned into sweetness, with a long aftertaste. Pei Ziyun sighed: "It's such a good tea, I enjoy it when I smell it."
At this time, the sun was raining, and the sun was shining brightly in the west, but the rain was still falling. The light and dark were reflected on the chessboard. Ren Wei couldn't help but sighed and said: "The battle of soldiers is dangerous. If you are not careful, you will lose the whole game. I heard that Gao Yunjia from Daping County is also a fierce general. He has experienced the founding of the country, so I don’t know if he can stop King Lu.”
"The imperial court's strength is a hundred times that of King Lu. If it can be blocked, King Lu's military strength will be exhausted."
"Actually, victory or defeat lies on this line."
Pei Ziyun held a piece: "Ren Wei, you were distracted playing chess. Things in the world are important, but things on the chessboard should not be underestimated. If you think too far ahead during the battle, you may miss what is right in front of you."
Ren Wei held the chess piece at this time, casually dropped it, paused and said: "Hey, young master, major events in the world are related to your future. How can I not be worried? If I can't resist, the capital will be shaken."
Pei Ziyun smiled and said nothing, and made a move: "You made the wrong move again, kill the dragon!"
"Ah!" Ren Wei exclaimed, "Master, you are just taking advantage of others' danger."
Looking towards the chessboard, there were black and white on the chessboard, and every chess piece was stuck in a dead end. Ren Wei looked carefully and sighed: "Ten chess ago, the young master has already made a wonderful move. The young master's chess move is really unexpected..."
"Haha, you are not serious about this game, let's continue to play another game." Pei Ziyun smiled, took a cup and drank: "The tea is cold, but the colder the tea is, the more fragrant it is. Give it a try."
Ren Wei took a sip. The fruit was different from the one before. The water was hot and mellow. Now that it has cooled down, the fragrance remains, which is refreshing and refreshing. Ren Wei said: "It takes three generations to learn how to dress and eat. Take a sip of tea." They are all knowledgeable!”
Before he finished speaking, a Taoist came in and loudly said: "Master, Daping County was defeated, Gao Yunjia defected to King Lu, and Qinzhou was unified by King Lu."
"What?" Ren Wei was shocked. He happened to make a move, his hand trembled, and the nearby chess pieces suddenly became chaotic.
"It seems that the game is over." Pei Ziyun put down his cup and sighed: "The debate in the court is almost over, right?"
Although I have a Taoist priest, I should have received the news later than the court. The emperor is the founding emperor after all, so he must make a decision. Just as he was thinking about it, there was a jingle outside the door.
"The eldest princess is here." Pei Ziyun stood up and looked around. He saw a maid holding an umbrella for the eldest princess. The rain hit the umbrella. The eldest princess looked solemn. She walked up to Pei Ziyun and stared at Pei Ziyun. She was silent for a long time. Then he asked: "Will you be kind to her and love her?"
"Of course" the words were a bit confusing, but Pei Ziyun understood immediately and nodded. After hearing these words, the eldest princess had a cold look on her face: "Remember what you said today."
After saying that, the eldest princess waved her hand and saw the nanny coming out. A eunuch came down and shouted: "There is a will."
Ren Wei hurriedly avoided it and immediately invited him out of the incense table. Pei Ziyun bowed deeply: "Long live long live long live long live."
The eunuch waited until Pei Ziyun knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, then opened the imperial edict and read aloud: "The edict says: Qining Zhenren is diligent in royal affairs, has outstanding achievements, is deeply in my heart, and has made great contributions to the country. I will not be stingy with the reward, and add Zhenjun Pei Ziyun. Return your original number, thank you for this!"
