"Master Dao Nu, once you find Lin Pojun, just hand him over to me!"
Lin Che sighed deeply again. "We are all working for His Majesty, for the entire Great Work. So what if we work a little, even if it's a little hard and tiring? It doesn't matter if others don't understand me. I, Lin Che, only want to do things with a clear conscience!"
Dao Nu was even more moved, and looked at Lin Che with a hint of awe.
Is this the character of a great scholar?
"Oh, Lord Marquis, you just said you came to see me for something. What is it? Tell me. As long as it's your business, I will definitely help if I can."
Upon hearing this, Lin Che quickly had a tactical drink of tea.
What he asked for from Dao Nu has now been done.
He just wanted to use the secret method of spirit possession of the Shadow Guard to monitor every move of Lin Su, Lin Hai and Lin Yi, and play the long game to catch a big fish.
"Ahem, this, it's a bit embarrassing to say it out loud, this... ahem. I'd better not say it."
"Nothing! Just tell me!"
"Um...Master Daonu, can you lend me some money?"
"ah????"
Dao Nu was stunned!
'(°ー°〃)
It was the first time she heard someone borrow money from her.
Lin Che's face was filled with shame. "You should know that my Divine Machine Battalion is short of everything. After this great battle, we don't even have money to buy life-saving pills. Moreover, they've been with me for so long, and I haven't paid them a single salary since we left that village. Why? Because we're poor! We're so scared of being poor!"
"I feel really bad. I just tried everything I could to give my subordinates some silver, not so they could eat meat, but just so they could take it back and rebuild a house for their families. It wouldn't be exposed to the wind, rain, water and sun. Sigh..."
At this point, Lin Che sighed, his voice choked with sobs.
This is not all fake. I have developed feelings for this group of soldiers for a long time.
It was really sad to think that their village had also been burned down.
Dao Nu let out a long sigh and nodded heavily. "I didn't expect you, Lin Che, to be so loyal and righteous. Don't worry, I'll help you. I have... four million taels here, take it all!"
"Young Master Duo?"
Lin Che was stunned as he watched Dao Nu take out a stack of banknotes from his hidden bag.
Four million taels?
so much? ! !
"Isn't that enough? I still have some valuable items that I can sell..."
"Enough, enough, enough. Enough! This is, this is too much money. Is being a Shadow Guard really that high-paying? Look, can I work part-time as a Shadow Guard?"
Dao Nu smiled and said, "Other Shadow Guards don't have so many, but I am the leader of the Shadow Guards. From the day I was a disciple, I have been by the young Majesty's side. My food, clothing, housing and transportation are all provided by the royal family, even the resources for my cultivation."
"Your Majesty treats me far better than other ministers. He has given me many rewards, but I have no place to spend them. This is where part of my fortune is."
Dao Nu's expression turned serious as he said this. He pushed the banknote in front of Lin Che.
"The Divine Machine saved your Majesty's life and protected the Great Gan Empire. This is a small token of my personal appreciation. Please, Marquis Guanjun, accept it!"
Lin Che was startled, then looked at Dao Nu seriously again.
For a moment, it was unclear whether Dao Nu was simply gullible or had seen through everything and was willing to do so?
Or, it should be more of a person of emotion!
Just like in Liangjie City, she let Shenjiying go. She should have known that the emperor's order was difficult to disobey, but she understood even more that he and Shenjiying both wanted to survive and they had no choice.
At this moment, Lin Che suddenly seemed to understand Dao Nu's character.
She might be more like a heroine in the martial arts world, but she lives in an imperial family and has to obey orders!
"Thank you, Master Daonu!!"
Lin Che was also moved and said solemnly, "After I return, I will have my men search carefully and send at least three Sky King-killing Crossbows to me."
"With these three Sky-Slaying King Crossbows, the Shadow Guards can practice with them. Hopefully, in the near future, any Shadow Guard will be able to easily withstand the Sky-Slaying King Crossbow. Then, even if the Mohists build ten thousand more, it will be useless!"
Dao Nu nodded heavily upon hearing this; she thought the same.
Simply relying on weapons of destruction is useless. They also need to be able to resist.
"On behalf of the Shadow Guard, I'd like to thank Champion Marquis!"
“You’re welcome!”
The two chatted for a full half day, and Lin Che even asked Dao Nu how to use the Sky King Slayer Crossbow.
Finally, Lin Che left with tears in her eyes, taking the four million taels.
[Remaining points: 237 points]
I can’t believe it!
Dao Nu is actually a small wealthy woman.
Lin Che now began to plan. The Undead Ancestral Bones required 200 points, and the Mountain, River, and State Map required 100 points.
Which one to control first?
If it is the bones of the dead, will it conflict with the Confucian righteousness after being controlled?
Could it be that, like Jiang Shangwu, a huge stone tablet would appear behind him? If so, would Jiang Li also discover it?
The most important thing is that there is still a terrifying aura of the imperial seal surrounding the entire Lei Shi City.
If he were to swear allegiance to the undead ancestors by dripping blood, wouldn't the imperial seal be shattered on the spot?
Very likely!!
This is too risky.
The Imperial Seal will not tell you, "You are a meritorious minister, I will spare your life." It will only hit him on the top of his head!
"Then we should get the Shanhe Shejitu first. This kind of high-definition map is absolutely necessary!"
Lin Che was no longer polite and directly summoned the Divine Machine System.
"System, 100 points, take the Mountain and River State Map!"
