After the immortal disappeared

The strong wind made the wooden windows whine, and no one dared to open them. But the light leaking through the cracks told He Lingchuan that it was getting dark outside.

He lay on the quilt with his legs crossed and played with He Chunhua's kite money in his hand: "Dad, who originally developed the use of Yuanli? Some say it was taught by gods, and some say it was taught by immortals. .”

When not activated, this looks like a normal coin. Who would have thought that a small order of government could carry the fate of the family and the country and the support of the people?

Yuanli is too mysterious.

"It's hard to agree on one thing, and it's hard to find it in the sea of ​​history." He Chunhua frowned, "The origin of Yuanli is very vague. After all, the history of human beings can only be found in the past two or three thousand years, and the existence of states has only been more than a thousand years. It is said that in ancient times, gods and The immortals roamed the world, and there were no kingdoms in the world at that time; it was not until the great catastrophe that the gods disappeared and monsters ran rampant that humans had to unite to fight, and then there were kingdoms."

He took back the kite money from his son: "It was the emergence of the Sheji Order that made it possible for the human country to fight against the demon clan. Was it taught by gods, immortals, or people themselves realized it? What does it matter?"

After all, practitioners are only in the minority. Most people are born ordinary. How can they fight against monsters that have grown up? At this time, the Yuan Power generated by united efforts and unity has become a weapon for the country to deal with the demon clan.

From fighting against each other in court, to dealing with the strong and the weak, Yuan Li has played an indispensable role. Nowadays, the number and territory of human countries are much larger than those of demon countries and demon realms.

"In other words, no one still knows the origin of Yuanli?" He Lingchuan sighed and returned to the topic, "Dad, why did you follow the desert?"

"How about not following me?" He Chunhua also lay down half-way. After working hard for days, his whole body seemed to fall apart when he relaxed, "If I don't obey, Sun Guoshi will kill me according to the order."

"Is this just a matter of course?" He Lingchuan sneered, "The king asked us to cooperate with the investigation. Didn't we delay it for so long? On the day of departure, you can actually delay it if you are determined."

There are policies from above and countermeasures from below. In what world is this different?

This kid's thoughts are much more delicate than before. He Chunhua closed his eyes and rested for a long time, then whispered: "With Guoshi Sun here, the chance of coming back alive is not low; besides, I always feel that this trip to Panlong Ancient City is a bit strange, so if I don't follow it in person, I'm afraid there will be something behind me. Very ominous."

He Lingchuan's heart skipped a beat: "What should I say?"

"I can't tell." He Chunhua shook his head, "It's just a whim. I also thought about passing the blame, but the worries in my heart are getting heavier and heavier, so my instinct is that I should take this trip."

The so-called whim is actually the so-called sixth sense.

People at that time paid great attention to this, and He Lingchuan couldn't say anything else. But he still felt that there was something strange about it.

Sheriff He is known to be mature and prudent, would he go into danger just for a little sense?

But if he doesn't say it, where can the son guess?

He Chunhua added: "Chuan'er, you performed very well this time."

"Oh?" Dad actually praised him? He Lingchuan suddenly became energetic.

"Don't be too polite to Nian Songyu, use your own methods to trick him. He has the Imperial Master behind him, and you have me behind you." He Chunhua's voice was very low, "But don't use force with him, you can't beat him. You have a good grasp of this measure."

"Yes!" Sure enough, He Chunhua wanted his eldest son to be the good guy and himself to be the bad guy. The eldest son Zhaya Huhu said everything that needed to be said, and He Chunhua came forward to backtrack.

The next morning, the team was on the road again.

Although they were still on the Hongya Road, there were fewer and fewer travelers in this direction. Sun Guoshi's team finally encountered the second greatest disaster in the Panlong Desert:

Bandits.

This group of sand bandits are human beings. They have about thirty riders. They are basically tough men. They ride their horses back and forth like the wind. He Lingchuan could tell at a glance that the guys with bulging muscles were all warriors, and there might be a magician in the team.

The two sides came towards each other and bumped into each other. They were both startled and looked up and down.

Needless to say, in the eyes of the sand bandits, this team is neatly dressed, with light armor and long swords, standard soldiers, armor, and weapons, plus horses that can be recognized at a glance. What does it mean?

This is an army!

Either marching, suppressing bandits, or patrolling, what else can the army do when it appears in the Panlong Desert?

The people did not fight against the officials, and the army far outnumbered our own, so the bandits were completely surprised.

Fortunately, the masked man at the head turned around and saw He Chunhua, his eyes lit up immediately, and he actually clapped his hands and stepped forward: "He Commander, we are just passing by!"

Before starting the robbery, wasn't it just passing by? He Chunhua coughed, a little embarrassed: "We have no time to suppress bandits today, so just don't do evil... Is there anyone else in the due north direction?"

Sun Guoshi and the other two looked at him and then at the sand bandit, they understood.

Both sides obviously recognize each other.

"No, not even a feather on the bird." The big man laughed and said quickly, "Let's leave first, so as not to delay your business!"

The bandits were about to apply oil on their soles, but Sun Fuping said: "Wait a minute! You must know the Panlong Desert very well?"

"Well, that's right." The big man saw that he was half a horse ahead of He Chunhua. He had an extraordinary bearing, and he must be a big shot with status. This kind of person is usually their favorite big fat sheep. After looting their belongings, they can also kidnap someone for ransom. This is a dual-use thing and no waste.

But Commander He was on the side, so it was hard for them to make mistakes.

"How long have you been here?"

"Ten, just a few years." Situ Han tried his best to explain, "We always give up when things get better..."

"Then stay."

"ah?"

Sun Fuping said to He Chunhua: "We are short of manpower, isn't this just right?"

He Chunhua thought to himself, two hundred officers and soldiers are not enough? But he still nodded superficially: "Yes, it's not easy to recruit people in the city."

Sun Guoshi smiled kindly, and the weasel looked at the bandit like a chicken. He was so frightened by the sight that he speeded up and wanted to run away. Unexpectedly, He Chunhua held up the kite and coughed lightly: "Keep them all! From now on, Blackwater City will officially recruit the Thirty Mangshan Bandits..."

He Lingchuan counted clearly on the side: "Thirty-two people!"

"...Thirty-two people, merged into the command of Deputy Lieutenant Zeng Feixiong, and will follow the army's orders!"

He Chunhua even listed their salaries and benefits.

The Mangshan gangsters stared at each other with wide eyes. The bandit leader couldn't believe it and asked tentatively: "Are we going to become officers and soldiers now?"

Isn’t this too fake and childish? Officials are good at playing.

"Exactly!"

"Then, where is Governor He going?"

"Wait for the imperial master's dispatch." He Chunhua pointed at Sun Fuping, "Go deep into the Panlong ruins."

Looking at the officers and soldiers surrounding them, the gangsters were dumbfounded: "What!"

…

After walking more than ten miles, the bandit leader Situ Han still felt a little dizzy. Today, he clearly came out to rob someone because of Huang Li. How come he suddenly turned into a regular army halfway?

He Lingchuan patted him on the shoulder and said sympathetically: "Hold on. As long as you return to the city alive, you will eat the royal food from now on."

How can you be as happy as being a king of the mountain by eating royal food? However, all his men were surrounded by the Blackwater City Legion and had no place to run. Situ Han’s smile was uglier than crying, and his spine felt chilly: “Young Master He, are we really going to enter the Panlong Ruins? Crazy? The sand season is coming, it’s impossible to survive if you’re trapped inside!”
