All Offerings for Quick Enlightenment, Who Needs Arduous Cultivation?

"I really thought something had happened to you."

In the captain's tent of Fengziying, Qi Huan raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw Jiang Che.

"I've always been very lucky and I can't die easily."

Jiang Che smiled and sat down under Qi Huan.

He had already arranged the scene at Yuhekou, but instead of returning to Yanggu County, he went straight to Fengzi Camp, firstly to ask Qi Huan for help, and secondly to try to avoid the time of Zhu Sheng's death.

Of course, at this time, in order to let the news of Zhu Sheng's death spread, Jiang Che ordered Xu Chenghu to rush to the county seat immediately and tell Xu San'er and Liu Zhi about the matter.

Let them deal with the rest.

"Tell me, why did you come to me this time?"

Qi Huan admired Jiang Che, especially after learning that Jiang Che had shown Tongmai's strength in Yanggu County a few days ago.

Thinking that the other party already has the ability to be on an equal footing with him.

Of course, this does not include family background, but only the personal strength of both parties.

"I'm going to give Captain Qi tens of thousands of taels of silver to make a friend."

Jiang Che's mouth curled up slightly.

Upon hearing this, Qi Huan immediately sat upright in his originally sloppy posture, leaned forward slightly, stared at Jiang Che seriously and asked:

"really?"

"Otherwise, could it be that Jiang came here just for a casual look?"

Jiang Che smiled.

"I don't value money, I just like to make friends. If you can really get tens of thousands of taels of silver, we will be brothers from now on." Qi Huan immediately expressed his stance.

"You can become brothers with tens of thousands of taels of silver. Brother Qi, your Qi family shouldn't be short of this, right?" Jiang Che asked with a smile, making a joke.

When Qi Huan heard this, he waved his hand:

"The Qi family is the Qi family, and I am me. My father is more than just my son. My family is just a branch of the Qi family. Taking tens of thousands of taels of silver from my father is really not a big deal.

But I can't always rely on my family. You should be able to guess why my money gap is so big. Yes, I will be transferred to the border immediately and lead an army.

These will be the personal guards who will accompany me on the battlefield. Dark iron heavy armor, red-maned war horses, hundred-forged steel knives, as well as their training resources, all need to be supplied by myself.

You said with such a big expense, how can I not be short of money? "

Qi Huan sighed lightly.

If you don't become a householder, you don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive.

"Isn't it more dangerous to go to the border in Tongmai Realm? Why is Captain Qi willing to let you go?" Jiang Che raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised.

It is true that going to the border to resist foreigners is admirable, but in his opinion, it would be more useful if the strength could be stronger. There are twelve states in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Tai'an Prefecture is only one of them.

In a small place like Yanggu County, one might be considered a master in the Tongmai realm, but if one only knows it when they reach the border, even innate warriors would not be surprised. These are things that Liu Zhi once lamented.

Qi Huan stared at Jiang Che for a moment and said in a deep voice:

"I won't hide it from you. My family has prepared innate spiritual energy and auxiliary spiritual objects for me. Before going to the border, I will go into seclusion and lead a battalion of soldiers with my innate strength."

When he said this, Jiang Che finally dispelled his doubts.

At the same time, he sighed secretly in his heart.

Wu Xiaolin, Zhu Sheng, Kou Yuansheng, and him were fighting endlessly for an innate spiritual energy, even at the risk of death, but Qi Huan had already prepared these things when he was born.

This is the difference in family background.

However, he is not discouraged, nor does he have any other intentions. With the Sacrifice Monument here, he will one day surpass the Qi family.

"How are you going to give me money?"

Qi Huan changed his tone and finally couldn't hold back his thoughts.

"I don't have the money in my hand now, it's stored in Yanggu County. I hope to ask for a token from Captain Qi to allow me to use the soldiers and horses of Fengzi Camp to eliminate the rebellion.

At the same time, give me the right to destroy the rebels! "

Jiang Che raised his head and said seriously.

But Qi Huan frowned:

"The military and the government are two different systems. It is a big taboo to send troops to the county without permission. It is very difficult."

"Traveling troops without authorization means that you do it, but I am the commander of the west city of Yanggu County. I am not a member of the military. I am just borrowing troops. And making money is not as simple as that."

If it wasn't for the purpose of grabbing Captain Qi's tiger skin, how could Jiang Che ask for tens of thousands of taels of silver?

You know, even if all the properties in the Caogang were sold off, the proceeds would only be tens of thousands of taels. This amount of money would be enough to equip a fully equipped army of soldiers and horses.

And the reason why he was willing to do it was because he wanted a supportive background.

Otherwise, even if Jiang Che has broken through the Tongmai and is now invincible in Yanggu County, he just doesn't have a suitable position to deal with this matter.

"What should I do with Zhu Sheng?"

Qi Huan couldn't figure out the key.

"Lieutenant Zhu County has given me full authority to handle this matter." Jiang Che took out a waist badge with the word "Zhu" from his sleeve and showed it to Qi Huan.

Yes, this waist card was given to Jiang Che when Zhu Sheng asked him to escort his family members to prove their identity. Subsequently, including the annihilation of the Cao Gang and other matters, it has never been taken back.

It has always been stored in Jiang Che's hands, but now it is of great use.

If Zhu Sheng is not dead, this waist card will not be worth his orders.

When Zhu Sheng dies, this is his legacy!

"Okay, let me help you!"

Qi Huan squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded slightly.

With an order, plus a notification to the prefect, and some exchange of interests, he could get tens of thousands of taels of silver. He thought he could do this deal.

Even the father would not say much.

Who can talk too much about making money by relying on their own ‘ability’?

The most important thing is that the Qi family does not get involved in the twists and turns inside. It is Jiang Che who does the dirty work. He just waits for the money to be divided.

After Xu Chenghu returned to Yanggu County, he immediately went to his father Xu San'er to convey Jiang Che's order. Xu San'er did not hesitate and immediately took him to see Liu Zhi.

And informed him of Jiang Che's instructions.

Liu Zhi sat on the chair and was silent for a moment. Then, he punched the table with a heavy fist. The huge force smashed the stone table into pieces, and he stood up with a 'thump' sound.

It’s finally done!

As expected, Zhu Sheng was killed by Jiang Che. As a result, he was completely relieved. His long-term bet was finally going to pay off hugely. He couldn't help himself with his joy.

After all, in this short half-day, he could be said to be on tenterhooks and restless, fearing that something unexpected would happen, causing his plan to go wrong and his success to be ruined.

All that's left is to follow the plan.

He believed that Jiang Che would be able to dominate Yanggu County.

From today on, Yanggu County’s surname is Jiang!

Under his order, the soldiers of the Armed Forces Camp immediately dispersed to look for the 'missing' Zhu Sheng. As soon as the news came out, the entire Yanggu County was shocked.

First it was Jiang Che and now he is Zhu Sheng.

Is it possible that Crouching Tiger Mountain is really desperate for his life?

Are you really not afraid of the government office taking action?

Yanggu County is about to change!

This is the consensus of everyone.

When he learned the news, Mr. Liang, who was hiding in the county, was overjoyed. Since Zhu Sheng disappeared for no reason, doesn't it mean that the leader of the village has won?

The only uncertainty is whether the village leader has received any news about the innate spiritual energy.

Yanggu County is in chaos, and all kinds of news are flying everywhere.

But Liu Zhi knew where the fight was going to be, so under his conscious or unconscious guidance, the soldiers in the county also moved towards the mouth of the Yuhe River.

"Brother Xu, what does the commander mean by asking us to handle Kou Yuansheng? Is it possible that we should let him go?" Outside the Caobang station, Geng Dabiao scratched his head, somewhat unclear about the specific meaning.

Then he asked Xu Saner for advice.

"Do you think it's possible? If the commander has this intention, just say it. Why let us make our own decisions?" Xu San'er shook his head.

"That is."

Xu Saner glanced around and whispered:

"Zhu Sheng is dead. It doesn't matter whether Kou Yuansheng lives or dies. After all, he is of no use anymore. The greatest value is to deceive Zhu Sheng. Do you understand?

Your Majesty always does things by cutting off the roots and leaving no future troubles. The Cao Gang was destroyed by the Commander-in-Chief and led his troops, and Kou Yuansheng's mother-in-law was also killed by the Commander-in-Chief himself.

Do you think these two people can survive? "

"Then it's enough for the commander to just give you an order. Telling him directly will save us the trouble of guessing."

"You know what a fool, Da Biao, the commander is the one who does big things, and he can't come back right now. Someone has to do these dirty things under the water.

Besides, can this kind of thing be said directly? What if it gets spread accidentally? "

"So that's it." Geng Dabiao quickly turned around and understood the meaning of Xu Saner's explanation.

They just want to do the dirty work for Jiang Che.

"Also, the commander-in-chief promised Kou Yuansheng not to kill Kou Qing. Of course, he cannot break his promise, but we did not agree to what he promised."

"Brother Xu, you are so scheming."

"I just think it's you who praises me."

Xu Saner smiled, knocked on the cigarette pole, and led Geng Dabiao into the underground water prison. The two looked at each other, and Geng Dabiao immediately understood and pulled out his long knife.

Kill Kou Qing with one blow.

Then, without any hesitation, they walked into the deepest cell where Kou Yuansheng was imprisoned. Bright red blood fell from the blade of the knife, and the two of them approached step by step.

Kou Yuansheng opened his eyes and felt the strong and undisguised murderous intent on Xu San'er and Geng Dabiao. His pupils shrank slightly and he quickly said:

"You. What are you going to do?"

"Sending you on your way!"

Geng Dabiao grinned, and his words and deeds became more and more similar to Jiang Che's. He would always unconsciously imitate Jiang Che in small things in daily life.

"Did Zhu Sheng ask you to kill me?"

Kou Yuansheng's mind changed quickly and he said quickly.

"Zhu Sheng is dead. You helped him personally." Geng Dabiao replied in a deep voice.

"Dead, what happened?"

Kou Yuansheng was shocked and didn't think clearly about the reason.

A dignified county captain, a person with great power, died so easily?

How can it be?

We haven't seen each other for a day, what happened?

Geng Dabiao stopped using the knife and turned to look at Xu San'er behind him. The meaning in his eyes was to ask him if he wanted to tell Kou Yuansheng the truth.

Xu San'er took a puff of dry smoke, exhaled a puff of smoke, and revealed a mouth of yellowed teeth:

"You can go down and ask Zhu Sheng, don't you know?"

"Is it Jiang Che?"

Kou Yuansheng looked at Xu San'er's mocking smile, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and his expression changed drastically.

After Zhu Sheng reported the news that Jiang Che was missing and suspected of having died, he was overjoyed at the time and felt the tightness in his chest relieved, but then he thought about it carefully.

Would Jiang Che, a scheming, vicious person like him, die so easily?

"As expected of the leader of a gang, he's not stupid at all."

Xu San'er waved his hand, not intending to waste time by talking too much with Kou Yuansheng.

"Where is Qing'er? Where is Qing'er?"

Kou Yuansheng began to struggle and shouted loudly.

"Your son just died. You hurry up and leave. Maybe we can be our companions on the road to hell."

Geng Dabiao chuckled and stabbed Kou Yuansheng in the chest.

"Where's Jiang Jiangche? When I met him, he promised me that as long as the news about the innate spiritual energy was confirmed, he would let Qing'er go."

Kou Yuansheng opened his mouth and spoke intermittently. The severe pain in his chest affected his thoughts, as if he could feel his life slowly passing away.

"Commander Jiang promised to keep your son alive, but we didn't agree."

Geng Dabiao learned and used it flexibly, and directly took out what Xu San'er said just now, pulled out the knife from Kou Yuansheng's chest, fell on his neck with one knife, and killed him.

"Ho ho. Ho. Ho."

Kou Yuansheng's body was twitching, and he kept making noises from his mouth, which lasted for more than ten breaths before he stopped. He stared ahead with a pair of huge eyes, unblinking.

Zhu Mansion.

At this moment, the news of Zhu Sheng's disappearance also reached home. Zhu Qingqing was anxious and informed her mother of the news. The two were silent in the study for a while.

It just felt like the sky was falling.

To them, Zhu Sheng was the pillar, supporting the Zhu family's wealth and Zhu Qingqing's unruliness. What should they do now that the pillar is about to fall?

"Qingqing, don't worry yet. Your father is strong and won't get into trouble easily. Go and send a message to your brother immediately and ask him to come back immediately."

Mrs. Zhu ordered calmly.

"I'll go right away."

Zhu Qingqing had a solemn look on her face and hurriedly ran out of the study.

Mrs. Zhu was left alone here at a loss, feeling empty in her heart.

According to normal circumstances, she should be worried about her master's safety at this moment, but for some reason, what flashed in her mind was Jiang Che's figure and face that day.

Where is Jiang Che now?

Now that the Zhu family is in trouble, will he help him?

How should I repay him?

These messy thoughts continued to fill Mrs. Zhu's mind. Unknowingly, she began to think about how she could support the family if something unexpected happened to her master.

On their own?

What can a woman do?

Qing'er and Mingyi?

Neither can they.

It seems that he is the only one who can save the Zhu family.

However, she already said it yesterday.

That was the last time.

Do you want to break your promise?

On the first day of the new year, I wish everyone a happy new year and all the best!
