The two sides talked for less than half a moment before settling the matter of borrowing troops.
"Master Li, walk slowly and come back next time." The great elder stood at the door, waving and smiling.
"Great Elder, stay here while I go." Li Zhang was wrapped in black cloth. After taking a few steps, he jumped down and disappeared.
"Hiss..." The dark-skinned man accompanying the great elder was surprised when he saw this.
He turned around and said: "Great Elder, could it be said that their Giant Rat Kingdom has actually dug the cave here?"
"Probably so. After all, they established their roots early. It's not surprising that such a small place on the earth has been dug in all directions by them." The great elder said lightly.
"In this way, if we send troops, we can go directly through their underground passages, and we can be invisible." The swarthy man said in surprise.
"Humph, this is just a little Doyle. Commander Blackstone, if you want to send out troops to be truly invisible, you can only use the help of powerful hands..." The great elder shook his head.
The swarthy man heard the words, rubbed his head, and said doubtfully: "When the elders talked about almighty, I used to wonder why the almighty had to entrust us with things that the almighty could do with a single palm of his hand in the upper world. Do these lower-class ethnic groups do it?”
"Hmph, some great powers naturally don't need us, but some do need us very much." The great elder seemed to be recalling something, with a cold expression on his face.
The dark man still looked confused.
The great elder stretched out his hand and nodded his head, shook his head and said: "Stupid, they are afraid of karma..."
"Great Elder, I used to hear you talk about cause and effect. What on earth is this? All the powerful men can control the wind and rain, turn the world upside down, but why are you afraid that this thing will fail?" The dark man continued to ask.
The great elder was about to explain, but suddenly stopped and looked steadily at the dark man.
This man's name is Black Stone. He is a powerful member of the Black Jade Clan. He commands the vanguard and must be in front every time he charges.
It's just that my brain has never been very bright. However, if my brain is too bright, it is not suitable for charging into battle.
"Commander Blackstone, why do you have so many questions today?" The great elder frowned and looked at him.
"Uh, I, I... I feel like my brain suddenly opened up recently, and I just want to ask questions that I couldn't figure out before." Heishi's face turned red and he said in surprise.
"No, based on my many years of experience, you are out of your mind...that's why you ask so many questions," the great elder said seriously, "Let me ask you, have you been to that big lake often recently? Have you ever encountered that so-called The lake god?"
"Ah, Great Elder, do you know everything?" Commander Blackstone said in surprise.
"You tell me everything clearly..." The great elder naturally knew the details of that lake god. He was just a spy outpost from his own realm. He was weak and could be destroyed with a snap of his finger.
It's just that their footing is not yet stable, and they also need this external communication channel to maintain a balance.
Black Stone immediately told the story of how he met the Lake God and how he was deceived by him.
"Oh, it turns out that you have fallen in love with Marshal Bai Jade, and the Lake God bought you with a magical book called "Guide to Love 1, 2, 3"... Then you answer the questions he raised," the great elder nodded, and then said in a cold voice , "You know, this is collaborating with the enemy and treason, and you should be punished!"
When Commander Hei Shi heard this, his whole body became cold. He immediately knelt on the stone slab and kowtowed repeatedly: "Elder, please forgive me! Elder, please forgive me!"
He, a pioneer and brave general who was not afraid of death, was so frightened when faced with this seemingly powerless old man, which showed that the other party was definitely not what he seemed.
"Hmph, forget it, you can continue to communicate with Nahu in the future. However, from now on, whenever he has any questions, you don't answer on the spot, just say you don't know; ask me when you come back, and then deal with it." The Great Elder looked at Commander Blackstone and said seriously.
"Yes, yes, that's what I did before. I couldn't answer most of the questions asked by the Lake God on the spot. I had to ask others after I came back. And no one told me the answers to the confidential questions. "Commander Blackstone quickly excused himself.
"Well, stupidity also has its advantages. You can step back. By the way, you can go back and tell the lake god what you asked today." The great elder said this and turned around and walked into the low shack.
"Yes, yes, thank you, Great Elder, for your kindness." Commander Blackstone wiped his cold sweat before standing up and leaving.
He looked back at the low shack. The dark door looked like a poisonous snake and beast, and he was immediately frightened.
The Black Jade clan has ten elders as the core and eight military commanders as the periphery. The survival of the ethnic group is based on "war". The entire ethnic group is a group of mercenaries in the upper world.
The life and death of the entire clan are controlled by the ten elders.
Commander Blackstone was thinking as he walked towards the big lake in the center of the ethnic group's settlement.
"Love Guide 1" has some effects, but not immediately. It seems that I have to ask the lake god for the next volume.
… …
Somewhere in northern China, the headquarters of the Truth Office is located here.
Outside the headquarters compound, there are lush trees, wild grass growing wildly, and wild animals with lively eyes running through it from time to time.
It is now May, and the summer of the third year of Shenyuan has arrived.
In the general counsel's office, Ren Ruofeng waved his fan while reading a report sent by Xie Dong.
"A Preliminary Exploration of the Black Jade Man".
"Well, this kid is quite capable. He really lives up to his expectations. Sure enough, this guy is like a peanut. As long as you squeeze it, you will always get oil." Ren Ruofeng nodded while looking at it.
"The black jade people are the lower races in the upper world. The races in the upper world are divided into four levels. The highest ones are born with great magical powers, great magic power, and have long lifespans; the lowest ones have no innate magical powers, short lifespans, and difficulty in cultivation. I can only survive by being a vassal.
"The Black Jade People, the whole clan relies on mercenaries as a profession to survive. They are not good at farming and weaving, so they serve as powerful thugs, eagles and dogs for superiors, and mercenaries for wars in various countries to obtain things for survival.
"The great powers of the upper realm are afraid of the entanglement of cause and effect, and are inconvenient to take action on many things. It is probably similar to the tragedy of annihilating the clan and burning the city, so there is room for the black jade people to survive. Another example is the battle between two tribes, and one side does not want to kill too many elite tribesmen. will hire them.
"The black jade people reproduce quickly and can grow into a generation in ten years. Their lifespan is about fifty years. They are not afraid of death and take it as an honor to return to a certain place after death. When they used to offer sacrifices to the heaven and earth in their own world, their souls would not be able to survive after death. When it returns, it can only dissipate in the world of this world, so everyone is afraid of it, but they have to follow it. After the ceremony of worshiping the heaven was interrupted by the Lord Shenlong, many people began to secretly worship the Shenlong."
A person like Ren Ruofeng could see the core content of this report at a glance.
"The entanglement of cause and effect? Are you even afraid of the powerful people in the upper world? It's really rare that this kind of thing can restrain them even slightly."
He put down the fan, picked up the pen, and circled it heavily.
For a long time in the future, it will be based on defense. Anything that can contain the power of the upper world will naturally attract his immediate attention.
As for the rest, he didn't care too much about what happened to the black jade people. After all, China still had the earth. The real opponents in the future would be those powerful powers from the upper world who were difficult to resist, not ordinary soldiers whose strength was no bigger than a pond.
