Leave Mr. Lu’s house.
Luo Shuang still couldn't recover: "Master, isn't this a bad idea? If I recruit talents in this way, even if I restore my country in the future, my reputation will be ruined!"
"Princess, history is written by the victors." Doug smiled and shook his head. "If the princess can really ascend the throne in the future, these people will become loyal followers and will naturally whitewash the princess. At that time, they will not be forced to join the princess' army, but they will join voluntarily. Because it will bring them glory."
"What if it fails? Wouldn't that harm them?" Luo Shuang asked.
"The success of a general is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of men." Du Ge said, "Even a general cannot be merciful, let alone a king of a country."
After a long silence, Luo Shuang let out a long breath, looked at Douge, and said, "Master, I really understand this time. Next, should we look for more people like Mr. Lu?"
"Sure." Doug smiled. "I can just set up a chess piece casually, and you never know when it will be used. But if we really want to start a rebellion, we can't just rely on these ordinary people. We also have to rely on the big families, big merchants, or big sects. In war, we fight for money as well as people."
"Master, your method can only recruit the weak. How can we recruit the strong?" Luo Shuang asked again.
"Appeal to their emotions and lure them with benefits." Doug said, "When you meet a strong person, Master will teach you step by step. I dare not say anything else, but when it comes to making friends, no one is better than Master."
…
In the following journey, Du Ge and Luo Shuang traveled and built up their own power along the way.
Rich people, big landlords, merchants, and anyone with some ability, after meeting Duger, all became potential rebels, with a sword hanging over their heads that could fall at any time.
There is no legend of the Fourth Princess in the world, but her shadow is everywhere.
Doug was building an undercurrent bit by bit, and the character of his master and loyal minister became more and more stable.
…
It was not until he arrived at Datong, an important town in Chongming State, that Duger got news about the other warriors.
On the wall of Datong Town, an official notice was posted: "...There is a demonic chaos in this world. If there is a suspected demon around you, neighbors can report it to the government. If the report is true, you will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver. The characteristics of the demon are as follows, and their words and deeds are completely different from usual..."
The people under the notice were excitedly discussing who among them might be the demon.
"...I heard that a farm boy in Mingyang City suddenly became eloquent and was regarded as a child prodigy by the surrounding area. His father took him everywhere to show off. As a result, a group of officials suddenly came and locked him up. After they found out that he was a demon, he was executed the next day."
"A leader of the Five Tiger Sect suddenly changed the rules a few days ago, requiring all the members to keep their word and fulfill their promises. As a result, the gang members reported this to the leader, who then killed him. Later, the gang members reported him to the government, and he was killed by the demon that day."
"That's not too outrageous. I heard that in Yunxi, there was a butcher who created something called investment rebates. In just a few days, he attracted nearly half of the county's money. The county magistrate was also involved, and later it was found that he was also a demon..."
…
What a bunch of people who have been screwed by the new rules! Listening to the discussions around him, Doug complained in his heart.
He thought that if he made a big fuss he would be able to awaken his skills, but in the end, he made a big fuss and the skills didn't come to him, instead he lost his life.
Alas! Doug sighed.
However, those who can be eliminated at this time are stupid. If you have the wrong identity and still try to force yourself to cater to the keywords, it would be strange if you are not discovered.
…
Tianmo said that he was the first to spread the information in the simulation field, and only people from Qiyuan Star had the information about the simulation field.
Then, the warrior who used the Heavenly Demon to create such an influential force in Chongming Country might be from Qiyuan Star.
According to the current situation, he may have already controlled part of the situation. According to the tactics they have formulated, once one person gains the upper hand, the others will meet him and confirm their identities.
We have to find him out somehow, maybe we can get some help from him...
…
"Master, what is the Heavenly Demon?" Luo Shuang interrupted Duger's thoughts as he looked at the description of the Heavenly Demon in the notice.
"I don't know. I've never heard of it before." Doug also frowned and lowered his voice, "It seems that the demons should be some strange people. If they meet us, maybe we can recruit them."
"Recruit?" Luo Shuang was stunned. "But I heard those people talking about it. What the demons did was unbelievable and extremely harmful to society..."
"Good." Luo Shuang's eyes lit up.
"Duke Dingguo came to power illegitimately, so God sent down demons to cause chaos in the world. Do you think Duke Dingguo will feel uneasy once such a reputation spreads among the people?" Duger pondered for a moment and came up with another idea.
Luo Shuang was stunned and looked at Doug strangely, not saying anything for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Doug asked.
"Master, I feel more and more that you are amazing. You can use everything and everyone." Luo Shuang blushed and whispered, "If General Si Chen hadn't sent you as an undercover, with your help, General Si might have controlled the situation at that time. Your talent is not suitable for being an undercover."
"Because what I do requires me to know a lot!" Doug smiled, glanced in the direction of the city gate, and called Luo Shuang, "Let's go!"
"We're not going into the city?" Luo Shuang looked towards the city gate, where the soldiers guarding the gate were bleeding everyone entering the city. Five or six men in brocade clothes with long swords on their waists stared at everyone's wounds, as if they might suddenly attack and injure people at any time...
"No, I'll try to sneak in at night." Doug lowered his voice, "Don't look over there, there are people from Longya at the city gate."
Hearing this, Luo Shuang looked towards the city gate vigilantly, pulled down the hat on her head, followed Du Ge, and turned into the small path beside the official road.
…
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Doug walked in front, without saying a word, frowning, thinking hard about how to break the deadlock.
Neighbors reported to each other, bloodletting and examination...
One by one, they learned all his tricks.
Now that the government has learned the trick of bloodletting, those famous sects will have to go through this test when recruiting disciples! This is a way to eradicate the growth of others from the root...
The martial arts learned from Longya are obviously not able to cope with the current situation. If you want to gain a foothold in this world, you must have a good martial arts method.
…
Luo Shuang followed behind Doug, not daring to disturb him. She looked back from time to time, fearing that Longya's men would catch up with them.
She had personally experienced the power of the Dragon Fang Killer. No matter how good the strategy or how sharp the brain was, if the life was gone, everything was gone.
She now regretted more and more that she had not studied hard in Qinglan Sword Sect before. If she had learned even 10% of her master's skills, what would she be afraid of Longya? The two of them had not walked far.
Sudden.
A villager who was resting under a tree carrying a basket of white peaches shouted to them, "Cooperate!"
Doug suddenly turned around, unsheathed his sword and pointed it at him.
Luo Shuang also reached for the dagger, took a step back, and hid herself behind Doug.
The farmer looked to be in his fifties, with a dark face and wrinkles like tree bark. He looked at Du Ge and the other man calmly and said, "Don't get excited. First look at the notice for arresting the demons, then look at the blood test at the city gate. Then he turned around and left. No one would believe you if you said you were not demons.
I don't know which planet you are from, but in this situation, it's hard to make any progress alone. Only by cooperating with others can you have a chance to make a name for yourself! "
"Are you a demon?" Luo Shuang's heart was pounding and she couldn't help but widen her eyes. She was discussing the demon with Doug before, but she didn't expect to meet a real demon the next day.
"Demon?" Douger showed a look of astonishment, and then a look of surprise, "After searching everywhere for something, I finally found it without any effort. Come work with us. Chongming Country can't accommodate you, but we can. We just need talents like you!"
"Everyone's identities are clear now. There's no point in acting any more." The farmer snorted, "The current situation..."
Swish! Douger thrust out with his sword.
A blood mark instantly appeared on the farmer's face.
The farmer's voice suddenly stopped. He was stunned for a moment, his legs softened, and he knelt on the ground with a plop. "Please spare my life, my dear. I am not a demon. I was hired by someone. Those words were taught to me by others..."
