Chapter 138 The Three Treasures of Debt Repayment Return to One

The morning light was dim, and a thin mist floated over the western gorge of the pasture.

Figures fled down the mountain in a panic, and the wind they created as they ran mixed the fog and the smell of blood together.

There were a lot of bandits under the four major bandit camps, and Cao Yinglong alone had nearly 30,000 bandits under his command.

Many of them have clear minds.

But they were caught in the formation and stimulated by the smell of blood, and they became bloodthirsty in the darkness, rushing towards the pasture in wave after wave.

As the sky gradually brightened, the surrounding scenery became clearer.

I shivered and woke up when the south wind blew in the morning.

The voices of giving orders had long ceased. The three leaders, Fang Jianding, Xiang Batian and Mao Zao, were all killed in battle. The dozens of leaders sitting on chairs who rushed to the ranch were also silent.

Dead, all dead~!

The whereabouts of Boss Cao are unknown, perhaps he is buried under a corpse.

There were corpses scattered all around, and countless people had fallen off the cliff. How could we know where Cao Yinglong was?

First, the bandits in the rear fled, and then the bandits in the front dropped their weapons and began to flee. The bandits simply abandoned the Xixia Tower that they had captured, crying and screaming all the way, falling down and getting up again, just wanting to save their lives.

The mountain path was not very wide, and many people were pushed off the cliff in the chaos.

The thieves are in chaos, it is a good time to strike them down when they are down.

But no one on the ranch went after them.

The chief deacon Liang Zhi and the second deacon Liu Zongdao collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath. Shang Zhen's eyes were dull. He wiped the blood stains on his pipe and puffed out a cigarette before he regained his composure.

After a night of fierce fighting, his true energy was already exhausted.

If the ranch didn't have enough people and rotated people in rounds to hold the line, this group of lunatics would have rushed into the mountain city long ago.

Shang Zhen glanced sideways and saw Chai Shao not far away, looking quite disheveled with a shoulder injury, who was being bandaged with the help of Pang Yu.

Li Xiuning sheathed his sword and looked at his second brother.

Erfeng was staring at the fleeing bandits, then at the corpses that covered the mountain path, her gaze becoming increasingly sharp:

"If we hadn't held this strategic position, we would have lost many men tonight. These men don't value their lives at all."

"More than that," Chai Shao gritted his teeth, "They are simply a bunch of lunatics, completely different from the four major bandits I have heard of. It would be normal for them to escape like this long ago."

Du Ruhui, who was standing on the right side of Chai Shao, did not speak. He avoided looking at Li Shimin and looked at the man in green who was meditating on the Xixia city wall.

This person's martial arts skills are very high, but he is also seriously damaged at this time.

After all, with so many thieves rushing over, even a martial arts master would have to retreat.

but

The scenes he saw last night flashed through Du Ruhui's mind. Except for the masters among the bandits who died in the chaos, most of them were killed by this man.

A strong sense of crisis arose in my heart.

There was no more fighting on the ranch, and Li Shimin thought of Yuchi Jingde, so he took Chai Shao and others back to the courtyard.

Everyone was silent along the way, each preoccupied with their own thoughts. When they returned to the courtyard where they were staying, Li Xiuning finally asked, "Second brother, are you thinking about those strange bandits?"

"Yeah, I'm also thinking about things related to Brother Zhou."

Erfeng looked at Du Ruhui: "Keming hesitated to speak, what did he want to say?"

Du Ruhui said, "This man's martial arts skills aren't the best in the world, but his speed and sharpness in killing are simply terrifying. If he were to face him in the future, he would have to tread carefully."

"good."

Pang Yu was well aware of Taixu's mistakes and was quite confident in his opponent's martial arts. At this time, he stretched out his palm into a claw, and grabbed at the air four or five times like a tiger digging out its heart. He then jumped left and right in the yard, with his claws flipping over and over, and made nine moves in a row.

"I observed carefully and took note. These moves are all those used by Grand Commander Zhou. What do you find so special about them?"

Dou Wei and Li Gang shook their heads. They were the worst in the martial arts arena and thought the moves were mediocre, so they kept silent.

What a joke! Commander-in-Chief Zhou's martial arts skills are comparable to those of the Coffin Palace Master. How could it be ordinary means?

If you can't see it, it's because your eyesight is not good enough.

The two of them still have self-awareness.

Suddenly, Li Shimin said, "It's just a very ordinary claw skill."

Dou Wei and Li Gang were both stunned, but Li Xiuning and Du Ruhui nodded.

Chai Shao echoed this, "At first, when he used his claw technique against the masters among the great bandits, I thought it was similar to the Demon Marshal's Eighteen Soul-Returning Claws. But later on, I realized there wasn't anything complicated or intricate about it. But the weird thing is, as soon as he used his claw technique, those masters died on the spot."

Chai Shao pondered for a moment, then continued:

"According to common sense, even a martial arts master with profound skills, vision, and power cannot have such lethal power. After all, if these people can fight with us, doesn't that mean that we can also be killed with a single claw? This seems impossible."

Pang Yu nodded repeatedly: "That's exactly the reason, then it can only be because his true energy is special."

True Qi?

Everyone immediately thought of Yuchi Jingde who came back to life.

"Once he makes a move, the threat his opponent feels will definitely be different from us bystanders. Therefore, a casual claw can instantly break through the Qi and kill a martial arts master. Even if he dies, it is impossible for him to reveal the secret of his true Qi."

"He is not the strongest man in the world, but he is the most dangerous man in the world."

Chai Shao immediately realized, "It seems that the Demon Sect's Grandmaster Zuo Youxian was also defeated in this way."

The Li family compared the sword attack outside Qingliu City with those people who seemed to have had their souls sucked out last night, and felt it was both mysterious and dangerous.

They remembered something else.

The martial arts masters in the world may be strong or weak, but they are all extremely difficult to kill.

But when it comes to this person, the old truth doesn't seem to apply.

Of the three masters who came to the ranch, one escaped early and the other two were killed directly.

The recent deaths of martial arts masters are mostly related to this.

Du Ruhui's face was as gloomy as water. "If I face this person from now on, I'll first discuss the situation and then the strength."

This sentence gave them some comfort.

Seeing him regulating his breathing on the city wall, he was also suffering from severe damage.

At least it has not deviated from the category of "people", but in terms of "momentum", the current "momentum" is not on the Li family, but the other party's momentum is greater.

The discussion in the courtyard continued.

Li Xiuning frowned slightly and looked at her second brother with some worry.

After visiting Yuchi Jingde, Erfeng stood at the gate of the courtyard for a long time, looking into the distance.

"Second brother, what are you looking at?"

"Look at the Golden Crow."

Li Xiuning looked at the rising sun.

Then I heard my second brother say leisurely:

"Nearly a thousand years have passed since the King of Qin conquered the world. The sun and moon have alternated, shining upon one emperor after another, finally resting in their mausoleums, recorded in the pens of historians. Compared to this sun, the heyday of a dynasty is but a fleeting moment."

Li Xiuning suppressed the strange look in her eyes and said calmly:

"That being said, a true man should live his life with lofty aspirations, pursuing a glorious and glorious life, regardless of eternal life. A hundred years is already a wonderful life."

She was about to persuade him, but suddenly her second brother turned to look at her.

"Sister Ning, I have a question for you."

"Excuse me, second brother."

"Do you think he was telling the truth last time on the boat?"

Li Xiuning naturally knew who "he" was referring to.

Those words seemed sincere, but seeing my second brother like this, I always felt a little worried.

So I changed the wording:

"This person is very scheming and mysterious. How can I see through him? How can I know if he is sincere or not?"

Li Shimin understood her wariness through her words.

Then he turned to look at the big fireball in the sky:

"The cicadas chirping in the tall willows is the climax of summer. The sun and moon rotate, unchanging from eternity."

"Hey, second brother, wake up."

Li Xiuning rolled her eyes. She had never thought that her second brother would have such thoughts.

It wasn't noticeable at all before.

We can't stay here for long!

If my second brother comes into contact with that Grand Commander Zhou again, he will become possessed by the devil.

"We've done our best to establish a good relationship with the ranch this time. After last night's battle, Xiuxun has a lot of affairs to deal with. Second brother, we should return to Guanzhong as soon as possible."

Li Shimin also knew that time was running out: "I have to let Dad know what's happening here as soon as possible. Rest for a day and leave tomorrow morning."

That afternoon, Li Xiuning found her good friend Shang Xiuxun.

Upon learning that Li's friends were leaving, the owner immediately arranged a dinner.

As night fell, everyone toasted each other in the inner castle.

Shang Xiuxun talked to Li Xiuning and asked her to stay for a few more days.

Li Xiuning naturally refused.

When she was talking to the owner, her eyes always darted to the side.

The second brother mingled with General Zhou again. They were drinking and whispering to each other, and no one knew what they were talking about.

Although my second brother is very smart, he will never be easily deceived.

But when he met this person, he couldn't use common sense to make judgments.

Shang Xiuxun noticed that she was occasionally absent-minded, and followed her gaze to find the direction where Zhou Yi was.

For a moment, I didn't say anything to keep my friend.

Li Tianfan died on the third day at Pegasus Ranch.

The Li family members, who came and went in a hurry, set out on their journey home.

Zhou Yi supported Yuchi Jingde who was about to kneel down to express his gratitude. He had just had a near-death experience and his condition had stabilized.

"Brother Zhou, we are about to part, so I am giving this to you as a gift."

While Li Shimin was speaking, he suddenly handed something to Zhou Yi.

It was a bird feather.

"Is this an eagle feather?"

"good."

Li Shimin smiled and explained: "During the siege of Yanmen, I encountered a hawk released by the Turks. This hawk has been trained for a long time and can fly thousands of miles a day, quickly delivering news. It can also recognize people at high altitudes, which means it has psychic powers.

That day, this flat-haired beast was circling in the sky. I climbed to a high mountain, released pigeons to lure it into hunting, and finally shot it down.

He was full of pride: "The Turkic people's psychic harrier hawk has never been shot down. This is the first one. At that time, the Turkic Khan was very upset when he learned that I plucked the hawk's feathers as a souvenir."

Zhou Yi picked up the eagle feather and said, "I'll take this eagle feather. One day I'll ask the Turkic Khan to give Brother Li the most handsome psychic harrier eagle."

"oh?"

Li Shimin became interested. He often stayed in Guanzhong and knew the temperament of the Turks very well.

Asking them to send an eagle is impossible.

"That's a difficult matter. How do you intend to subdue the Great Khan, Brother Zhou?"

Zhou Yi smiled slightly: "The Turks still have an undefeated harrier eagle. When I go to collect the debt from the Tiele King, I will go to the grassland and shoot him down to undermine the faith of the grassland people."

This tone is obviously too arrogant.

The one he was talking about was naturally Wu Zun, one of the three great masters of the time.

That god-like figure on the prairie, Yan Yang's extraordinary achievements are famous throughout the world, and no one can defeat him.

However, as the leader of the younger generation, there is no need to mind his louder tone and arrogance.

"Brother Li, take it and read it on the way."

Zhou Yi received an eagle feather of special significance and received an ancient book in return.

Erfeng looked at the four characters "Huainan Honglie" and also felt that they had extraordinary meaning.

"Looking forward to seeing you next time."

"Take care of yourself."

The Li clan descended the East Gorge, gradually moving further away.

"The night before, we were guarding against those bandits. The chief steward and his men were already overwhelmed. This second young master was a huge help. He was the one who commanded the troops afterwards. Otherwise, we would have lost many more men."

Shang Xiuxun finished speaking, and Zhou Yi continued:

"So I have a good impression of him and even gave him the Taoist manual as a gift."

Shang Xiuxun hummed, and then said, "Actually, I want to say that the Li family also has the ambition to fight for the world, and they will be your opponent."

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Are you worried about me?"

"No."

The beautiful owner turned her eyes away and would never admit it. She was ready to wait for his next words, but unexpectedly Zhou Yi ran away.

She caught up with him again and told him about the aftermath of the ranch.

Soon, they arrived at the place where Li Tianfan and others had stayed before.

There are dozens of people guarding here right now.

Seeing them coming together, they all made way.

"Where are the people?"

"Still inside."

Someone led the way, went up to the second floor, and opened a door.

Zhou Yi stepped into the room. The gentle-looking young man in brown military uniform stood up and clasped his fists, saying:

"Tianshi, the owner of the field."

After saying hello, he sighed again.

Zhou Yi was slightly puzzled. "Your martial arts skills are no less than those of the Changbai Twins, and you're a great help. Why did you guard this room alone last night instead of joining them in attacking the inner castle?"

Xu Shiji stared out the window in a daze: "The situation is lost, success cannot be achieved by the courage of one person."

"Since you've appeared at the ranch, it means we've lost our chance. Forcing a plan will only ruin the overall situation. A demented person won't listen to advice. What can Xu do?"

Zhou Yi nodded slightly. "I heard that Military Advisor Xu initially followed Commander Zhai Rang, and later Li Mi came to Wagangzhai. You're so devoted to Li Mi, aren't you letting Zhai Rang down?"

Xu Shiji turned his gaze back:

"Zhai Dalongtou and I are from the same Dongjun village. Initially, he followed my advice and expanded his army from a few people to nearly 20,000. Although the situation is good, I also realized Dalongtou's true feelings. He just wants to live in peace in the world and be a bandit leader. He is satisfied with his ambition.

However, the base is close to the Eastern Capital. Given the current situation, the Wagang Army is like rowing against the current. If they do not advance, they will retreat. The future is uncertain, so I have no choice but to rely on Mi Gong.

Although he wasn't as open-hearted as Dalongtou, he was more cunning. Emperors rarely open up to others. With so many heroes vying for supremacy, he was a better choice than Zhai Dalongtou.

If he can truly bring order to the world, it wouldn't be a bad thing for Zhai Dalongtou."

Now that Zhai Rang was still alive, Zhou Yi didn't mention that Li Mi would assassinate him and take matters into his own hands. He only asked, "Has Li Mi been following my news in Xingyang?"

"That's natural."

Xu Shiji said, "He often talks about the Heavenly Master, and after hearing about the battle at Longxing Temple, he found it even harder to eat."

Zhou Yi's mood improved a lot, and he looked at him with a smile: "What are your plans?"

Xu Shiji looked struggling.

He had the thought of worshipping her, but suddenly he breathed a sigh of relief: "Xu will leave it to the Heavenly Master to deal with. I only hope that you will allow me to write a letter and send it to Xingyang."

Zhou Yi was a little surprised that Xu Shiji actually wanted to die.

"You want to write a letter to Shen Luoyan?"

Xu Shiji nodded, with a look of reluctance in his eyes. He was deeply in love with Chen Luoyan.

Zhou Yi saw his expression and suddenly understood.

By the way, Shen Luoyan is his favorite, and this guy is also one of the Sui Dynasty's bootlickers.

"No need. Chen Luoyan once plotted against me. It won't take a few years for you to meet in the underworld."

Feeling Zhou Yi's murderous intent, Xu Shiji's expression changed.

He thought of what Zhou Yi had said before, as well as the rumors in the martial arts world, and cupped his hands:

"Xu is willing to serve the Heavenly Master. I do not ask for any reward, but only to repay the debt owed to me and Luoyan."

He glanced at Shang Xiuxun again and said hurriedly, "Prince Xiao Xin of Liang is colluding with Qian Yun in Jingling City. If they succeed, there will definitely be another major battle at the ranch."

"I have a plan that can help the Heavenly Master gain the territory of Jingling County."

…

“Is he a talent?”

Although Shang Xiuxun had heard of Xu Shiji's name, she didn't know much about him.

"Well, but if he offends me, regardless of his talent or not, the probability of his death is greater."

"Then why did you give him another chance?"

Shang Xiuxun blinked: "But do you think he is a lovesick man?"

"No, no."

Zhou Yi waved his hands repeatedly and said nothing.

The beauty farm owner was even more curious: "What on earth could be the reason that could make Master Yi put down his butcher knife?"

Zhou Yi pointed in the direction of Jingling and said, "It's because of his last words. If Jingling really gets into chaos, it will affect you, which is something I don't want to see."

After listening to it, she thought about it carefully, and just said "oh" but she was happy in her heart.

"You go ahead and do your work. I'm going to look for that old man."

Shang Xiuxun glanced towards the back mountain and nodded slightly.

This time, Lu Miaozi's action added some emotions to her.

Ignoring her hesitation, Zhou Yi walked through the inner castle and headed straight for the back mountain.

When we arrived at the "comfort nest", we heard a few coughs.

He was anxious, afraid that he would drop the ball.

At this time, he rushed into the house and put one hand on his back in front of Lu Miaozi's slightly blaming eyes.

"No need, I don't have much time left."

Lu Miaozi waved his sleeves and told him to sit down: "In twenty days at most, my soul will return to the underworld."

Zhou Yi hummed:

"I'm going to Jingling soon. I'll return to the ranch and prepare for a few days. I'll arrive just in time for you to die. I'll try to save you. If I can't, it won't be a pity."

"Sir, please cherish this last moment of your time."

Lu Miaozi smiled and did not refuse Zhou Yi's kindness.

He looked him up and down for a few times, then suddenly asked, "Have you learned the Dao Heart Planting Demon Technique?"

"How did you know that, sir?"

Zhou Yi's words were almost an admission. Lu Miaozi was silent for a moment, revealing a look of remembrance.

"No wonder there was a familiar aura when you were practicing."

"But."

He showed a worried look amidst his doubts:

"When you fought those three masters the night before last, I didn't notice anything at all. This is very strange. This is not the way to cultivate the Dao Heart Demon. You must be careful not to make mistakes during practice. According to my old friend, this skill is extremely difficult to master."

Zhou Yi took the opportunity to ask, "Who is your old friend?"

"Well, he is Xiang Yutian."

Lu Miaozi's expression of nostalgia grew even more intense: "That was thirty years ago."

"Presumably, you have come into contact with his disciples."

Zhou Yi nodded and briefly explained the origin of his martial arts. When Lu Miaozi heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his elegant old face for the first time.

"Fragmentary Scroll, how can this be mastered?!"

"So I practiced Taoist internal skills again. When I fought those three people, I used Taoist skills. Normally, I don't dare to use this magic skill, for fear of being targeted by those with ulterior motives."

After hearing this, Lu Miaozi looked at him as if he were a monster.

And then he said:

"What a remarkable man! I thought it was remarkable to encounter a 200-year-old man, and now I've encountered another. It's truly a blessing in life."

Although Lu Miaozi's skills are not that high, his knowledge and level of martial arts are far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"If Brother Xiang saw you practicing like this, he would probably break back from another void."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but ask, "Sir, did you see him shatter the void with your own eyes?"

"No, but Brother Xiang wouldn't lie. If he says it can be broken, then it can definitely be broken."

Lu Miaozi sighed:

"After absorbing the essence from the Saint Emperor's relics, he gained a long lifespan, living from the Jin Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty. After that, he perfected his Dao Heart and cultivated the devil, and was able to absorb endless essence, energy and spirit from heaven and earth."

"But Brother Xiang has unique interests and is extremely virtuous. Even the great monks of the major Buddhist temples cannot compare to him. Otherwise, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wants in the world?"

After hearing this, Zhou Yi showed a look of deep longing.

Seeing him like this, Lu Miaozi didn't find it strange at all:

"With your talent, as long as you practice martial arts diligently, you may have a chance in the future. After all, Brother Xiang found it extremely difficult to practice this inner demon. You have achieved something with such a fantastical method. The wonders of the world are truly unfathomable."

He was so excited that he took some fruit wine to drink.

The two clinked glasses, and Zhou Yi asked again, "Sir, have you ever seen the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Technique?"

“I have.”

Lu Miaozi said while drinking: "Brother Xiang once asked me if I wanted to practice."

"Actually, I was more curious about this miraculous skill. After seeing it, my curiosity faded. I also felt that I didn't have his intelligence, so how could I practice it? This is my fault. I have achieved everything, but I am indecisive.

If I concentrate on martial arts, Queen Yin will not be able to hurt me."

Zhou Yi laughed in his heart, you may not be fickle towards Queen Yin.

"Sir, do you still remember the content of the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation?"

"How can I remember something that happened thirty years ago?"

Lu Miaozi suddenly stopped talking and stroked his white beard for a long time without saying anything. Zhou Yi saw that he was deep in thought and did not disturb him.

After a while, I heard him say:

"However, considering Brother Xiang's situation and my experiences over the years, I do have some insights."

Zhou Yi listened quietly, and the old voice sounded again in his ears:

"As the saying goes, Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things. All kinds of martial arts in the world are actually within all things. If you want to reach the pinnacle, you must return to Tao One."

"All things return to the three, which are the three treasures of human beings: essence, energy and spirit. Martial artists cultivate essence, energy and spirit. The subtle vital energy can communicate with the spirit, which is like the process of three returning to two."

"Based on this, if a person's essence, energy and spirit are cultivated into innate true energy, innate spirit and innate essence, then they can eventually return to oneness."

"This one, perhaps, is the 'escaped one' I told you about before. If you can find it back, you can escape into the void and shatter into pieces."

After hearing this, Zhou Yi felt a little touched.

What Lao Lu said does make sense.

The pinnacle of the Dao Heart Demon is the Double Wuji. In Master Huang's world, a single Wuji cannot be broken unless the Yin is exhausted and the Yang is born, and the Yang is exhausted and the Yin is born, and finally the Yin and Yang are balanced.

But the old man told him that he had the Evil Emperor's relics. According to Lu Miaozi, he seemed to use the relics to accumulate his essence to the innate level, which was why it was broken.

The Cihang Sword Classic cultivates the sword heart and the Dao fetus, and when the Dao fetus is fully developed, it becomes the ultimate Yin and Wuji.

Wait for another Zhiyang Wuji, and the two will work together to break it.

In a sense, the extreme yang and the extreme yin are also two returning to one.

Zhou Yi glanced at Lu Miaozi, and Lu Miaozi watched him pace back and forth.

After a long time, he sat down, picked up the wine jar and poured fruit wine for Lu Miaozi.

"Is what I said useful to you?"

"Yes, in the midst of nothingness, it gives me a better sense of direction."

Lu Miaozi was amused, and immediately warned, "That's all just my guesswork over the years. Don't let me lead you astray. Actually, you don't have to worry about it. After a few more years of practice, maybe it will come naturally."

"I hope it's as you said, sir."

Zhou Yi smiled and drank with him, and then talked about Xiang Yutian's appearance.

Lu Miaozi just thought he was curious and told him everything.

Zhou Yi didn't find the answer, so he talked to Lao Lu about "the one that disappeared". Time passed quickly and it was noon before he knew it.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard on the gravel road.

Lu Miaozi was very excited when she heard a woman outside calling out, "Master Yi."

Zhou Yi responded and ran out of the door. He saw the beautiful farm owner standing next to some green bamboos, with a smile in her eyes. She made a gesture of picking up food at him.

Zhou Yi smiled knowingly.

At this time, Lu Miaozi walked out of the house and saw the smile on her daughter's face disappear instantly.

He was quite sad, and this smile was not for him.

"Master, you haven't stepped into my cozy nest for a long time. Why don't you come up and have a glass of six-fruit juice with the old man?"

"I'm not interested."

Her pretty face turned cold, she took two steps forward, and pulled Zhou Yi to walk faster and faster.

Zhou Yi turned around and gave Lao Lu a helpless look, then made a writing gesture in the air.

A calm, indifferent and unrestrained person like Lao Lu, standing at the door of the classical and elegant wooden house, seemed out of tune with the beautiful scenery around him.

The waterfall on the opposite cliff is so cheerful, but he is so desolate.

A pair of dull old eyes watched the boys and girls gradually go away. Even if he stood on tiptoe, he could no longer see their backs.

If you commit sins when you are young, you will indeed suffer misfortune in your later years.

Lu Miaozi returned to the house, spread out paper and ground ink. He stopped writing for a long time, and the ink dripped down the wolf hair brush, but he didn't write the first word.

Their relationship has been cold over the years, and they call each other "owner" and "old man".

Therefore, some words are difficult to even write down, let alone speak out loud.

Thinking of Zhou Yi's words, the old man's expression froze. He rolled up his sleeves and began to write a long letter.

This is the last words of an incompetent old father.

At noon, Zhou Yi had a big meal.

"There's something I need to tell you."

"What's up?"

Zhou Yi said with a heavy voice: "Mr. Lu doesn't have much time left."

Shang Xiuxun was expecting him to say something, but then her expression changed slightly: "Isn't this old man fine?"

"He has an old injury from nearly thirty years ago. This time, it flared up prematurely due to the ranch incident. With his skills, he can only suppress it for twenty days at most. It might even be even earlier, and he'll pass away."

Zhou Yi looked helpless:

"I'm not confident I can heal his old injuries, so I don't dare to touch them. I can only wait for the day when his injuries flare up and give it a try."

Shang Xiuxun snorted lightly: "He deserves it."

She spoke in a cold voice and turned her face away.

Zhou Yi couldn't see her expression either.

The sixth day of the Tianfan calendar.

Several fast horses went straight down the east gorge of the ranch and headed towards Jingling County.

Before these people arrived at Jingling City, a letter was delivered to Duba Villa. After receiving the letter, the right vanguard Ban Shanhe went straight to the inner courtyard of the villa.

Qian Yun learned from the lesson of Master Fang, and not only placed the 10,000-man camp near the villa, but also surrounded it with black-clad arrow teams.

If a master attempts to assassinate someone, thousands of arrows will be fired at once, turning the person into a hedgehog.

He also ordered the mechanical experts to build internal defenses.

There are traps, but also ways to escape.

Today's Duba Villa is a den of dragons and tigers.

"General, there is a secret message!"

When Ban Shanhe arrived at the backyard, Qian Yun was flirting with a charming woman, who was the concubine of Mr. Fang. He was doing such a thing as "your concubine, I will support you."

Ban Shanhe has always followed Qian Yun and is a confidant who was recently promoted.

The scene of flirting before him was nothing; he had seen more vivid ones.

It’s because Qian Yun is a reckless man and does many absurd things.

"Where did the letter come from?"

"Sent from the ranch!"

When Ban Shanhe delivered the letter, he glanced at the disheveled concubine without leaving any trace. Qian Yun ignored him and said as he took the letter:

"I heard a big fight broke out at Pegasus Ranch. I wonder what the outcome will be."

"That's not clear."

When Qian Yun saw the handwriting on the letter, he immediately felt a sense of familiarity.

It was sent by Pushangong’s people!

He had met several masters of Pushan Public Camp and knew their methods.

At this moment, I was excited and hurriedly opened the letter to read it.

I looked at the handwriting first, and it was indeed good.

A moment later, Ban Shanhe saw Qian Yun burst into laughter: "Hahaha, God helps me!"

"General, what's the good news?"

Qian Yun didn't hide it from him: "The ranch has been controlled by Pushan Gong. Feng Ge is finished! This old man is ready to make a move and wants to attack me. This time, let's see who will have the last laugh."

Ban Shanhe couldn't believe it:

"General, how can Pushan Gong control the ranch?"

Qian Yun uttered an "ah," "All his experts have come out to capture Shang Xiuxun. Is he still worried that the ranch won't surrender?"

He looked ruthless:

"Give orders to our men to halt their actions and not to fight Feng Ge to death. Wait a few days while I meet with Military Advisor Xu. Feng Ge keeps saying he wants to uphold the alliance and that Pegasus Ranch is on my side. Doesn't he have any shame?"

"As long as the two companies merge, I will have plenty of opportunities to kill him."

"Just keep Xiao Xin's people hanging for now. It doesn't matter whether they are there or not."

Ban Shanhe wanted to remind him, but then he changed his mind.

There is no possibility that Pushan Gong's people would harm Qian Yun. After all, they had already promised that they would rely on whoever helped them take over Jingling City.

It seems that King Liang is still not as powerful as Duke Pushan.

Qian Yun controls Jingling and will also help Pushan Gong. This is a win-win situation.

Even the situation of mutual assistance between Pegasus Ranch and Jingling City will remain the same.

It's just that both houses have changed owners.

The tenth day of the Tianfan calendar.

At about 3 p.m., Qian Yun, along with Ban Shanhe and dozens of elite subordinates, left the manor along the secret passage as scheduled.

In this way, the spies Feng Ge placed outside not only could not discover that the outsider had entered the manor, but also did not know that he had left the manor.

But what he never expected was that shortly after he left the house.

Troops are being assembled in General Feng’s camp.

About an hour later, Qian Yun secretly came to a teahouse near the west of the city.
