Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

A hundred miles away, outside the city of Sang County, there was a series of military tents, and each tent was lit with a bright white spiritual candle fire. At night, the military camp is like a reflection of the stars, shining brightly.

This is where the name of the Sangjun Star Army comes from. More than three hundred years ago, the Immortal Official of Heavenly Court once made things difficult for the New Heng Dynasty and gathered a massive army of alien beasts at the border. In that battle, the New Star Army achieved outstanding military exploits that would go down in history. Not only did they win the favor of the Immortal Officials, but they were also respected by people all over the world. In the following hundred years, they were hailed as the well-deserved leader of the New Star Army.

Times have changed, and today's Star Army has long lost its glory of the past, but it can still serve as an important force in the border areas of the New Heng Dynasty and enjoys unique treatment. The main force of its army is generally stationed outside the county town and is theoretically controlled by the county guard. However, the pattern of strong guest and weak host has always been played to perfection by successive Star Army commanders.

Since the death of Mr. Mingli, the former governor of Sang County, the position of the governor has become a dangerous place that all civil servants in the dynasty avoid.

However, no matter how hard you avoid it, you still have to choose a victim, and the current victim is Tuoba Tiancheng, a young civil servant who also comes from the capital Fancheng.

As a middle-aged man with no background, who built his career from scratch by excelling in learning and becoming an official, Tuoba Tiancheng was overjoyed when he first took up the post of county magistrate. Because in the New Heng Dynasty, the road to academic excellence and officialdom has always been bumpy. In his view, those colleagues whose talents and ambitions are far superior to his own often have to stay dormant for many years once they leave the academy environment and enter the officialdom. You can even achieve something by breaking your head and bleeding. And he has neither such outstanding talents nor a backer, but he was entrusted with the important task of county guard just after leaving the academy... This is simply the treatment of the protagonist in a story novel.

Before setting off from Fancheng, he had always been lonely and not good at making friends. Suddenly, he received a large number of visitors at home. Those academy professors who had a good relationship with him and some middle- and low-ranking officials from the civil service department came to visit him one after another. As for him who never drank, he drank all night long and got drunk. At that time, he thought that he might have been spotted by a certain big shot and somehow became a political celebrity in the court, which was why he suddenly had such a group of clinging people around him. So occasionally when I wake up, I can't help but feel sarcastic. I only feel that the world is utilitarian, which makes innocent people sick. And when he takes up the post of county governor, he will definitely follow the example of his predecessor, Mr. Mingli, and display his great ambitions...

Later, he knew what it means to be extremely happy and to be sad.

The governor of Sang County is actually not a complete official position at all. As the smallest county in the northeastern region of the New Heng Dynasty, its administrative level is not as high as that of the capital Fancheng...the city lord of Dongdu next door. Therefore, when Tuoba Tiancheng was transferred from the academy hall master to the county governor, his official position was only increased by half a level. When Mr. Mingli took office as the county governor before, he was obviously a low-ranking official.

A well-known figure in the court could naturally show off his talents in the small Sang County if he went to a low-level position and a high-level job. When Tuoba Tiancheng, who had almost no political experience, took office... he quickly understood that those who came to visit him in the first place Colleagues, why do you always look at yourself like a dead person at a banquet! And the officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs who handled the process looked even more apologetic!

Because outside the county seat of Sang County is the Star Army camp, and the general Li Fengxian in the camp is simply inhuman! Not only was he arrogant and domineering, but he was also ruthless. On the day he took office, Li Fengxian killed a servant of the county governor's house in front of him! That man's brain almost splashed onto Tuoba Tiancheng's shoes!

Of course, Li Fengxian naturally found a reasonable excuse afterwards - the servant was a felon in disguise, armed with a weapon and extremely murderous. If not taken care of in time, a civil servant like Tuoba Tiancheng might be killed. worries.

However, looking at the blood-stained floor of the Sheriff's Mansion, and looking at the so-called "evidence" of the murderer submitted by Li Fengxian's men later, Tuoba Tiancheng only felt horrified. He no longer dared to have any extravagant plans and just wanted to kill him on the spot. Return to Fancheng. However, when he almost rolled over and ran to the inn without even caring about his own luggage, asking the person in charge to arrange a shuttle for him as soon as possible, the answer he got was...

"I'm sorry, sir, all shuttles are out of order and are temporarily unavailable."

Tuoba Tiancheng's eyes were almost split open. He himself took the shuttle from Fancheng to the county seat. The shuttle was lying not far in front of him, and the aura on the outer shell was still full and well-proportioned. However, the person in charge of the station dared to claim that the shuttle was malfunctioning without looking back! The so-called calling a deer a horse is just that!

What made him even more incredible was that when he showed the governor's seal and forced the other party to start the shuttle, the man actually glanced at the seal, smiled indifferently, and then pretended to lower his head and handed over his hand. , said: "I am incompetent, please just abolish it!"

The next moment, Tuobatian Chengcheng heard a cold voice behind him.

Li Fengxian appeared behind him like a ghost and whispered: "The governor wants to go back to Fancheng? I happen to have a star boat here. Why don't you take my star boat back and let me give you a ride myself?"

Those words, even years later, often rang out in his dreams, causing him to wake up in a cold sweat.

Since then, Tuobatian has completely clarified his position and started to be willing to work for Li Fengxian. Not only did he actively cover up his atrocities, he even put the county governor's seal directly on the desk of the county governor's house. If Li Fengxian needs it, he can just send someone over to get it stamped without even having to inform him! No need to come in person!

Being so huddled, I finally gained peace for a while. As long as Li Fengxian annexes the power of the county governor, he will not intimidate Tuobatian too much - after all, he really forced people to death. If Mr. Mingli, a low-ranking and highly qualified man, comes over, it will be Li Fengxian's turn to have a hard time.

The governor and the general live in peace and harmony until today. After several years of working together, Li Fengxian even occasionally shares some small profits with him... That night, Tuoba Tiancheng was at home to visit a beauty who had been recruited from the lower city. , I was so hearty for a while, and I couldn't help but imagine how nourishing the women of Liuyan City, who are known as the Three Beauties, must be.

Then there was a sudden and rude knock on the door, and he was so startled that he almost retracted into his stomach.

But instead of being angry, Tuoba Tiancheng immediately became solemn and solemn. While pushing the beauty away, he hurriedly performed a body cleansing technique on himself. After that, he immediately put on his clothes and walked quickly to the city lord's palace... and then, Seeing Li Fengxian standing there with a gloomy face, he nodded slightly.

"Okay, it's not timed out."

Tuoba Tiancheng quickly handed over his hand: "It's all our responsibilities, I don't dare to waste time."

In the past few years, Li Fengxian almost treated Tuoba Tiancheng as his own soldier, and the latter was very willing to train him, which fully demonstrated the tenacity of intellectuals. Now whenever he hears the knock on the door of the night shift, he knows that it must be the general summoning him. No matter what the situation is, he can pack up his words in a very short time and pay homage to Li Fengxian.

"Things have changed in Liuyan City. I have mobilized two battalions of troops. You can go with me and bear witness along the way so that you can complete the procedures in the future."

After saying that, Li Fengxian waved to Tuoba Tiancheng and motioned for him to board a blue starship next to him. Tuoba Tiancheng did not dare to delay, so he quickly transformed into a rainbow and escaped into the star boat. There were only two of Li Fengxian's confidants in the boat. One of them was driving the star boat, and the other was standing behind Li Fengxian like a shadow.

Tuoba Tiancheng asked in a low voice: "General, is there anything else you need me to know?"

Li Fengxian smiled sullenly at him and said, "Sheriff Tuoba, you and I have worked together in Sang County for many years, and we have a tacit understanding of each other, so I can tell you some things without telling you."

Tuoba Tiancheng nodded repeatedly: "Naturally, naturally."

Over the past few years, just the "small profits" he had made from Li Fengxian had already determined that he had no other choice, so he naturally knew what kind of secrets to keep for the other party.

"You should know the inside story about the arrest of key criminals throughout the imperial court."

Tuoba Tiancheng said: "I only know that the Queen Mother's party claimed that the Imperial Master was treason, sealed and suppressed him in the Eastern Capital, and took the opportunity to eliminate political enemies. And the key culprit was a close confidant of the Imperial Master, who held the key to opening the The key to the Star Tower. Now the Empress Dowager is asking for huge profits. As long as she can get the key, her wealth and wealth will be limitless...General, is there a rumor? "

Li Fengxian nodded and sneered: "We are lucky."

Tuoba Tiancheng couldn't help but gasp, and couldn't help but ask: "Is it conclusive?"

The search for key criminals was carried out throughout Xinheng. Why did the key criminals appear in a remote area like Sang County?

Li Fengxian snorted: "Use your brain and stop talking nonsense. That criminal is wanted throughout the country. Apart from running to Sang County, a place with sparse glass, where else can he go? Tang County or Li County, which place can accommodate him? Are you wandering around now? Do you think that I am marching around the county just to search for money, food and beauty? Oh, even if I scratch the land, how can I compare with the prosperity and wealth promised by Fancheng? "

Tuoba Tiancheng praised repeatedly: "The general is wise... but it is said that the criminal held the immortal thunder given to him by the imperial master, and it exploded regardless of life and death, which was enough to destroy the world. Wouldn't it be too much for the general to go there in person? Is it dangerous?”

"That's why we ordered all the people..." After a pause, Li Fengxian added, "What's more, the person found this time is not the criminal himself. The person is probably dead without a burial place. As for the immortal thunder, there is no need to worry. ”

"?" Tuoba Tiancheng was confused and couldn't follow his train of thought.

Li Fengxian did not show off, and said directly: "What I saw was a man who claimed to be the Immortal Envoy. He was holding the Seal Star Baoyu, and he was at the home of the city lord in Liuyan City."

"Immortal Envoy!?"

"He claims to be an Immortal Envoy." Li Fengxian corrected him coldly, "That man indeed has magical powers that are close to those of an Immortal Official. In front of me, he used the method of rebirth and transformation on my lieutenant, and transformed him into a deformed human being. The appearance of a worm returns to its original state in an instant, and the calmness of the method is impressive.”

"!?" Tuoba Tiancheng was speechless, and after a long while he said anxiously, "If so, that person must be the Immortal Envoy. Apart from the Immortal family's methods, who else can lead the transformation of the famine? General, it would be better to face others. Yes, but if the other party is an immortal messenger..."

"Called himself an Immortal Envoy!" Li Fengxian corrected him again, "The identity of an Immortal Envoy is not determined by means and abilities, but by the decree of the Heavenly Court. Without the certification of the Immortal Official, what will happen even if one's abilities reach the heavens?"

"Then...could it be that that person didn't have the imperial seal?"

Li Fengxian sneered and said: "If there is an imperial seal, why would he bother to do acrobatics in front of me? Who in the New Heng Dynasty would not recognize the spiritual seal given by the immortal official? Who dares to disobey after seeing the spiritual seal given by the immortal official?" Even the Queen Mother and the General were sure that the Imperial Master did not have the Immortal Official Spiritual Seal, so they dared to suppress him. If that person really had the Spiritual Seal, I should have been transformed into a lackey. The Star Army under his command can also be put to full use. He just let me come back and let me dispatch my troops..."

Tuoba Tiancheng couldn't help but said: "Perhaps Master Xianfu is testing the general. Heaven always likes to set various tests for us..."

But Li Fengxian said categorically: "Perhaps he is not an immortal messenger at all, but a rebellious official who stole some magical methods from the immortal family by chance, or he is a shady lackey raised privately by the imperial master. The immortal official's desolate god. Tong is indeed powerful, but other than that, he has no special abilities. His cultivation level is only at the Yuan Ying level, and he can only fight alone. The soldiers from my two battalions came forward and could wipe him out in a single thought. Oh, Immortal! There is no immortal messenger in the world who turns into ashes! There is no immortal messenger who holds a precious jade to block my wealth! If I were really frightened by him and surrendered to the Imperial Master, I would be in trouble. Ridiculous!"

Hearing this, Tuobatian Cheng was still worried, but he also knew that Li Fengxian's decision was not allowed to be refuted by others, including whether he was on the side of the National Preceptor or the Queen Mother in this party dispute between the DPRK and China. At least as a county guard, he I have no right to make a decision... I can only nod and say: "This must be the case, and I will fully cooperate with the general from now on..."

But before he finished speaking, Li Fengxian let out a mocking laugh.

"What can you do to cooperate with me?"

Tuoba Tiancheng was stunned for a moment and realized that he might have answered wrongly, but judging from the tone of the other party, this mistake was not important, so he said calmly: "Of course, I will cooperate with the general and prepare a complete set of evidence to bring that person to justice." The identity of the traitor is locked up. After the treasure is captured, I will write an article to commend the general."

But I heard Li Fengxian say: "If it's just for this kind of thing, I don't actually have to bring you here in person. Oh, it's really because I have another idea. If I can put it into practice, maybe I can get it better than Fancheng." I promise more glory and wealth, but you must cooperate fully in this matter without any second thoughts. "

Tuoba Tiancheng felt astonished. He had been trained for so many years. The scholar's iron bones were completely locked on the star army commander. How could he still have second thoughts?

But the next moment, he was so frightened by Li Fengxian's words that he broke out in cold sweat.

"That man claims to be an Immortal Envoy, but he has no credentials at all. And if we provide him with credentials and make him truly an Immortal Envoy, and use this to correct the chaos... so what?"

For a moment, there was a buzz in Tuoba Tiancheng's head, and he was almost shocked to the point where his consciousness stopped.

Li Fengxian's ambition has expanded so fast that most people's imaginations can't keep up!

However, at this moment, sudden applause sounded in front of the star boat.

And a young man in red standing confidently in front of the army.

"Haha, that's good. If General Li Fengxian can help me complete the certificates, open the seal of Dongdu, and welcome back the national division, then you will be the general of Xinheng."
