Volume 1 Chapter 113 A Visitor from Tianji Sect
"We want to see His Majesty, you can't treat us like this!"
The civil officials were screaming desperately, and some even threatened to bang their heads against the pillars.
General Cao Changqiu laughed at the time: "Go ahead and hit them! It would be better if you die!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the civil officials who were clamoring to bang their heads against the pillars immediately stopped talking. Only a fool would be willing to commit suicide in this Golden Palace.
It's just for show.
As they were arguing, news soon reached the palace. The chief eunuch said loudly:
"Your Majesty has ordered that this battle against the Xiongnu is related to the survival of the Great Zhou. All the soldiers on the front line are under the charge of Yang Wudi, Bai Qi and others."
"The rear is under the jurisdiction of General Cao Changqiu."
"Anyone who dares to disobey military orders will be punished and will not be tolerated!"
After the eunuch finished speaking, he bowed to Bai Qi and General Cao Changqiu and said, "I will leave the affairs here to you two adults. I will take my leave now."
As soon as the emperor of the Great Zhou issued the decree, the civil officials completely shut up.
They sighed and sat on the ground dejectedly.
The general nodded with satisfaction, now he no longer had to worry about the news of his escape.
After doing all this, General Cao Changqiu turned back to Bai Qi and said, "Don't worry, the soldiers in the front can go ahead and fight. Just tell me if you need anything."
"I will make sure you get good care of the rear."
"I will never let anyone leak the news."
As he spoke, General Cao Changqiu immediately ordered people to bring various quilts and clothes, and placed them directly on the throne room, and said to everyone:
"From now on, you will eat and live here, and you cannot leave even to go to the toilet."
"It's not just the civil officials, the same applies to the military officers, including me."
At this point, the civil officials really didn't dare to say anything. After all, General Cao Changqiu himself stayed in the Golden Palace and decided to eat, drink, defecate and urinate here.
With such a good example set by oneself, what other opinions do they have?
"Thank you very much, General!"
Bai Qi saluted. General Cao Changqiu's courage was beyond his expectations.
He immediately turned around and asked the sword-carrying guard for a set of clothes from the Great Zhou Dynasty, threw them directly to Chuluo Khan and said, "Hurry up and change into them. From now on, until we return to the grassland, you will be my personal guard."
"On the way back to the grassland, you can't speak Xiongnu language, you can only speak the Central Plains language."
Confidentiality is important.
Choro Khan was very obedient. After all, he had already recognized his godfather. It was just a matter of changing clothes. What was there to be unacceptable about that?
Soon, after the two of them finished packing, they left the Golden Palace and set off for the northern grasslands.
When the two men just left the palace, deep in the palace, on the attic of the Worship Hall, the three worshippers and the Emperor of Great Zhou were looking into the distance, watching Bai Qi's leaving back.
The third priest sighed and said, "This is the pillar of the country!"
Then he turned around and cursed the Great Zhou Emperor fiercely: "You idiot, why did you force him to be against us in the first place?"
"If you can win over Bai Qi, then Bai Qi will become the sharpest spear in our hands."
"Fight for us everywhere!"
"It won't be like now, calculating against each other."
The three priests were very depressed. Bai Qi could have been their ally, but now he had become their mortal enemy.
The better Bai Qi was, the more uncomfortable he felt.
The Great Zhou Emperor was also helpless, muttering: "How could I have known that Bai Qi had this ability? I thought he was just an ordinary child of aristocratic family."
"Waste! Waste!"
The third priest cursed angrily: "Bai Qi is growing so fast. After we solve the grassland crisis, it won't be easy for us to kill him even if we want to."
"How is this possible?"
The Great Zhou Emperor was terrified. He looked at Bai Qi, then at the three priests and said, "I don't feel how powerful Bai Qi is. Isn't he exactly the same as he was the last time he came back?"
The third worshiper sneered, shook his head and sighed:
"Same? Very different!"
"When Bai Qi walked, his steps were as smooth as flowing clouds and water, untouched by worldly matters. This clearly showed that his Qinggong skills had reached the highest level."
"It's only been a month, and Bai Qi has cultivated his Qinggong to this level."
"This growth rate is something I cannot even imagine."
"It took me more than 20 years to cultivate Qinggong to this level!"
"And Bai Qi has only been practicing for two or three years at most."
"The most important thing is that he not only practices Qinggong, but also his internal strength, body training, and combat skills are constantly improving."
The Emperor of the Great Zhou shrank his neck, although he did not understand martial arts practice.
But I also know that if I want to improve my cultivation level, it will take a very long time.
It took the Three Priests hundreds of years to cultivate to their current level, but Bai Qi only took two or three years.
Eunuch Huang, one of the fourteenth priests standing by, sighed in his heart, this Bai Qi is simply a monster!
Last time, Bai Qi's Qinggong was not as good as his, but this time, Eunuch Huang felt that he had no chance at all to escape from Bai Qi.
How is it possible for this guy to learn Qinggong so quickly? It seemed as if in an instant he had transformed from a rookie who had just gotten started into a terrifying existence who mainly practiced light skills.
wrong!
Bai Qi seemed to be practicing every technique very quickly, so fast that it made him crazy.
It seems that Bai Qi has just obtained the "Formless Kurong Gong" from Kurong Temple, but it feels like Bai Qi has been practicing this technique for decades.
He shuddered at the thought of such talent.
At this moment, Bai Qi did not expect that the Third Priest was so afraid of him. There was a system voice prompt in his mind.
【bite! 】
[Congratulations to the host for completing the task of military promotion, and your military rank has been promoted by one level. 】
[The rewards are as follows:]
[Host promoted to second-rank general, reward: three-star middle-rank internal force technique "Karma Fire Red Lotus Jue"]
[The reward distribution is over, does the host want to withdraw it? 】
extract!
In an instant, an ancient book appeared in Bai Qi's mind.
He learned immediately.
Then, the ancient book in his mind exploded, and he had finished learning "The Art of Karma Fire Red Lotus".
Bai Qi's eyes suddenly lit up, and relevant information flooded into his mind.
He immediately understood that "Karma Fire Red Lotus Art" was an advanced version of "Karma Fire Glazed Art" and that "Karma Fire Glazed Art" could only summon one glazed karma fire.
But "The Art of Karma Fire Red Lotus" can transform the Glazed Karma Fire into a Karma Fire Red Lotus.
When attacking the enemy's soul, the Karma Fire Red Lotus will fly out red lotus petals, continuously destroying the enemy's soul.
'That is to say, before, I could only cause soul damage for a moment, but now, I can cause damage continuously. '
Just think about it, the enemy is fighting against you, and a red lotus of karmic fire is constantly burning the enemy's soul.
The damage caused to the enemy is definitely tons.
If we had gone to Kurong Temple before and had the Karma Fire Lotus, it would have been easier to deal with them.
He doesn't even have to reveal his trump card of using portable space to perform space cutting.
Sure enough, powerful skills are the basis for becoming stronger!
'Also, I am now a second-rank general! '
Bai Qi sighed.
I got promoted too quickly!
After several battles, he went from being a small soldier to a second-rank general with great power.
If he gets promoted two or three more levels, he will almost be at the highest position in the country, with no higher titles to be bestowed upon him!
By then, it will be time for the Emperor of the Great Zhou and the royal family of the Great Zhou to get rid of themselves!
Bai Qi sneered.
If they really want to take action, don't blame your men for being ruthless!
I won't sit still and wait for death!
"General, where are we going now?"
"This is not the way back to the grassland!"
The further Choro Khan walked, the more he felt something was wrong. Shouldn't he be heading north?
Why did it suddenly go west?
Could it be that Bai Qi wanted to kill people to silence them?
Chuluo Khan was startled, then he smiled apologetically and said cautiously: "Bai Qi, we are partners, I am yours!"
Um!
Bai Qi nodded, not bothering to pay attention to Choro Khan. He wanted to leave an impression of a killing god in Choro Khan's mind, so that Choro Khan would be in awe of him.
Just talk less and act more profound.
The more others can't figure you out, the more they will respect you.
When Choro Khan saw that Bai Qi ignored him, he became more suspicious and even wondered if Bai Qi was going to kill him and then support a puppet as the Khan of the grassland?
Chuluo Khan swallowed hard, then said to Bai Qi: "How about I recognize you as my godfather?"
"Also, besides my biological mother, I have many stepmothers. How about you pick one?"
Damn it!
Bai Qi staggered and almost fell off his horse.
At this moment, he really wanted to strangle Choro Khan to death.
What do you think about all day?
He didn't say anything and quickened his pace to rush to Heishuigou. Every time he returned to the rear, he wanted to visit his fellow villagers.
Where is his second hometown?
It's his home.
……………………
10 days later.
Blackwater ditch.
Suddenly a horse team arrived, standing out from the crowd in this quiet little mountain village.
As the commander of the soldiers stationed here by the Lao Qin people, Meng Feiyu immediately shouted, "Stop!"
Following his order, the 3,000 soldiers under his command immediately drew their bows and arrows and rushed towards the oncoming cavalry.
The cavalry in front immediately stopped advancing, and the leader even jumped off his horse and bowed to Meng Feiyu, saying, "We are the emperor's envoys!"
Meng Feiyu snorted, stretched out his hand and said: "Token! Password!"
The entourage behind the emperor's envoy all had ugly faces. In the past, when they went to other places to convey the emperor's orders, the local people would be very respectful when they saw them.
But when they arrived at Heishuigou, not only did they have to dismount and salute, they were also questioned about their identities.
Some people couldn't help but get angry at that time.
But as soon as he moved, a long cold arrow shot out and pierced his throat.
The young eunuch died instantly.
The eunuch in charge hurriedly smiled and said, "We have the token and the password!"
"Please ask this military officer to check it!"
He immediately took out the imperial badge from the palace and stepped forward to report the command that was given to him when he came.
Meng Feiyu then nodded proudly and waved his hand, saying, "Search them all!"
Oh shit!
These eunuchs cursed in their hearts, they were the only ones who went to search the civil and military officials,
When did we get searched, and by just ordinary soldiers!
The eunuchs all looked unhappy.
I originally thought that I would be respected after I got out, but I found that I was still looked down upon.
But they had no choice but to cooperate and let the soldiers search them thoroughly.
The Black Water Ditch was now full of people. Meng Feiyu's wife, the woman in gorgeous clothes, saw Meng Feiyu treating these people from the palace with such pride.
She couldn't help but raise her chin with pride, feeling extremely satisfied.
After following Qin Pojun in several wars, Meng Feiyu directly became a seventh-rank general and was ordered to be stationed in Heishuigou.
This satisfied her vanity to the greatest extent.
Especially today, Meng Feiyu treated the visitors from the palace in such a way, which made her feel like a proud phoenix.
Just as she was receiving envious glances from everyone, the visitors from the palace had been searched and Meng Feiyu let them go.
Then the palace steward directly took out the imperial edict and said loudly:
"The Emperor of Great Zhou issued an edict. Bai Qi's wife, Ji Miao'er, received the order."
After hearing this order, many people were confused. Who is Ji Miaoer?
But then someone realized that it seemed that the last time Miao'er was given the surname of the Great Zhou country.
The emperor of the Zhou Dynasty seemed to have the surname Ji.
Miao'er's family was at a loss as to what to do, and then they all came to receive the order, but they did not kneel down, because Bai Qi did not kneel when he received the order for the first time.
Therefore, when they received the imperial edict again, they would not kneel again.
But Meng Feiyu and others had to kneel. The woman in gorgeous clothes had originally been full of arrogance, but at this moment she became particularly uncomfortable, because compared with Miao'er, she was nothing.
Others were standing there just fine, but she had to kneel on the ground and listen to the emperor's edict.
The content of the next decree made her vomit blood.
Because the Emperor of the Great Zhou directly conferred the title of Third-Rank Lady on Ji Miaoer!
After reading the imperial edict, the chief eunuch respectfully handed it to Miao'er.
Miao'er's family was extremely happy, and someone nearby asked, "How high of an official rank is this third-rank imperial lady?"
"Is he bigger than our county magistrate?"
As soon as he asked this, the chief eunuch curled his lips and sneered, "A mere county magistrate, he is only a seventh-rank official!"
"Even the governor of your county is only a fourth-rank official."
"A third-rank official is one who enters the six ministries. Only the assistant ministers of the six ministries are third-rank officials."
"When your county magistrate sees Miss Miao, he must kneel down and pay his respects."
"Even if Miss Miao goes to the Imperial City of Great Zhou, more than 90% of the officials there will have to pay their respects and pay their respects."
Everyone around gasped.
Only then did they understand how powerful a third-rank lady of honor was.
Meng Feiyu's wife, this gorgeously dressed woman, had her fingers deeply inserted into his flesh at this moment. She was envious and jealous and going crazy.
A lady of the third rank.
Even some of the big names in the tribe did not have such a dignified appearance in their wives.
When she turned around and saw Meng Feiyu kneeling on the ground, she sighed in her heart. Why did she choose this man in the first place?
How great it would be if I chose Bai Qi!
So the one who should be standing in the center of the crowd today, receiving everyone's envy and jealousy, should be her!
Just as the people of Heishuigou were discussing this, a discordant laugh sounded:
"So this is Bai Qi's wife!"
"Tian Suanzi of the Tianji Sect, greetings to the Madam!"
Following this long laugh, everyone suddenly discovered that more than 10 men and women in gorgeous clothes appeared in the sky.
Some of them carried long swords on their backs, some held compasses in their hands, and some even unfolded a scroll, like immortals descending upon the earth, floating in the air.
Tianji Sect? God calculates!
When Meng Feiyu heard this name, his face changed drastically.
He roared angrily: "Remnants of the Tianji Sect, how dare you show your heads?"
"Retreat quickly!"
"Otherwise, I will wipe out your entire family!"
They stayed here to guard against the arrival of the sect, but the Tianji Sect betrayed the Great Zhou Dynasty and led the Huns to attack the rear of Honghua City.
This is already known to everyone!
So when he heard the name of Tianji Sect, Meng Feiyu immediately put his soldiers on alert.
"Are you going to wipe out our entire family? It seems like you've already done that once!"
Tian Suanzi's eyes flashed with hatred, and then he chuckled and said, "Don't be so nervous, everyone. We don't want to be enemies with the soldiers of the Great Zhou. We just want to invite General Bai Qi's wife to visit our Tianji Sect!"
