#894 - Tiger Talisman II

“Grand Tutor, you're too anxious. I haven't even said how to contact the Flying Tiger Army yet. You don't think the Flying Tiger Army is like ordinary troops, obediently staying in their garrison, waiting for the Ministry of War's summons, do you?”

Qi Shan was rendered speechless when he saw Zhang Deliang grab the tiger tally and prepare to leave.

Even if you, old fellow, are usually reckless, you should still consider the occasion. One second you were confidently vowing to lead the Flying Tiger Army to victory after victory, and the next second you exposed your true purpose. Aren't you taking me, the Emperor, too lightly?

In fact, Qi Shan already knew that Zhang Deliang's main goal was to obtain this tiger tally. Whether he could use it or not was secondary; his goal was to prevent Qi Shan from mobilizing the Flying Tiger Army.

However, being this straightforward was a bit careless. As a secret force, the Flying Tiger Army had only appeared twice during the entire Great Qi Empire's development, and each time it was personally mobilized by the royal family. Therefore, no one had ever seen what the tiger tally looked like.

Eunuch Li, as a veteran minister of two dynasties, had seen this thing before, which is why he had a hint of doubt in his eyes when Qi Shan took out the purple tiger tally.

Simply because it didn't look like the one he had seen before.

However, this fellow was cunning and shrewd. Not exposing what he saw through was the essence of survival in the palace, so of course, he wouldn't say too much.

Zhang Deliang was slightly embarrassed, but he had long been accustomed to acting old and entitled. When His Majesty directly pointed it out, his body stiffened slightly for less than a moment before returning to normal. He looked at Qi Shan with a pleading expression, cupped his fist, and said, “Your Majesty, please forgive me. This minister is concerned about the people of the South and was a little impatient. Please grant me the Flying Tiger Army's garrison location and the method of transmitting the tiger tally.”

Qi Shan nodded and didn't bother to argue with him. The faster this matter was resolved, the better it would be for him.

“The Flying Tiger Army's garrison is somewhat peculiar, but as a force directly under the royal family, it won't be too far from the Forbidden City. There must be their men within the capital. However, I don't know exactly where. If you want to contact them, you only need to send someone out of the North Gate, travel about thirty li, and you'll encounter a small teahouse that's neither here nor there. At that time, just show the tiger tally to the shopkeeper, and they will take you directly to the Flying Tiger Army's garrison!

As for the subsequent procedures, just follow the normal procedures. I believe I don't need to say more, right?”

Zhang Deliang listened carefully, memorizing it in his heart. He cupped his fists with both hands and, without even saying goodbye, directly turned and left.

Seeing his attitude, Qi Shan couldn't help but laugh. This old fellow was like a dog, smiling at you one second and ignoring you the next. He was quite interesting.

A trace of anger flashed in Eunuch Li's eyes, then quickly disappeared without a trace.

Over the years, he had seen this situation more than once or twice. From the initial burning anger, almost burning a hole in his skull, to now only being secretly angry in his heart, it could be considered that Eunuch Li had great tolerance.

“Your Majesty, that tiger tally just now…”

Eunuch Li wanted to say something, but Qi Shan directly interrupted him.

“The tiger tally is not right, is it?”

“Even if you didn't want to give it to him, you could have just found a reason to refuse. Why bother finding a fake one? Isn't that asking for trouble? When he doesn't find the Flying Tiger Army's garrison, he will definitely come back to trouble Your Majesty. These old and entitled fellows are usually domineering, and even if there's no reason, they'll stir up trouble. If they catch a reason, wouldn't they turn the world upside down?

Why are you doing this?”

Eunuch Li shook his head and smiled wryly, greatly disapproving of Qi Shan's actions.

Qi Shan chuckled: “Since you are so curious, then send someone to follow and see what exactly I gave him?”

Eunuch Li was stunned for a moment: “Your Majesty, do you mean to say that this is a backup plan you prepared in advance?”

Qi Shan smiled without saying a word, flicked his sleeves, and turned back to the rear hall.

Seeing Qi Shan acting like this, it really aroused Eunuch Li's curiosity. What exactly does His Majesty want to do?

After pondering slightly, he slowly walked out of the main hall and beckoned to a small eunuch on duty. The small eunuch quickly ran over, knelt on the ground with a smile on his face, respectfully kowtowed, and called him Ancestor.

Eunuch Li's eyes almost disappeared with laughter. He reached out and touched the little eunuch's head, scolding with a smile: “You little rascal are quite clever. Clearly, a bow is enough, but every time you have to kneel down and kowtow. Who taught you these rules? Don't you find it troublesome!”

The little eunuch said seriously: “This little one doesn't know where I learned the rules, but every time I see Ancestor, I can't help but kneel down and want to kowtow. Since I want to, I do it. This little one didn't think so much!”

“Alright, alright, you're not old, but you're always flattering me. But seeing that you've made this old ancestor feel comfortable all over, this old ancestor will give you a good job this time! If you do it well, you might be seen by His Majesty, and then you'll have a bright future!”

The little eunuch was overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly: “Thank you, Ancestor, for your kindness. This little one will definitely help you handle things properly!”

“Alright, alright, you little rascal, get up. I need you to pledge your loyalty to me here.”

Eunuch Li reached out and pulled the little eunuch up, then reached out and leaned close to the little eunuch's ear, quickly instructing him. The little eunuch nodded repeatedly, agreeing with a beaming smile.

After instructing him, the two parted ways. Eunuch Li returned to his courtyard to rest, while the little eunuch ran out of the palace in a puff of smoke.

Qi Shan didn't idle either. Now that he had given the tiger tally to someone, he had to create the Flying Tiger Army.

During the break after returning from the last world mission, Qi Shan prepared to merge the two doomsday biohazard worlds, transferring all the living people to the Resident Evil world, and allocating all the so-called zombies and virus-infected non-human life forms as nutrients to the Divine Tree.

After resting for about a month, the entire Walking Dead world had been emptied by Qi Shan. The Divine Tree and the tens of billions of White Zetsu are now obediently staying outside the Resident Evil world.

As bioweapons, White Zetsu have unspeakable advantages. First of all, they have combat capabilities.

In Qi Shan's memory fragments, there is very little memory of the Flying Tiger Army, even only some pictures of dark crowds. Why are they so mysterious? Where do they usually hide? And what kind of combat power do they have? Qi Shan knows nothing.

Moreover, as a force absolutely loyal to the royal family, he is not really prepared to move them. Taking advantage of Zhang Deliang's request for the tiger tally, Qi Shan simply went with the flow and launched the White Zetsu troops after packaging them.

Let's see what kind of effect a large force will have in a world mission.
