Evergreen Immortal

At the hour of Hai.

The bright moon was hanging high in the sky, and the big red lanterns of Zuixianlou were hung high.

In the private room on the top floor.

Gao Zhen and Zhuang Renhe sat across the table from each other.

"Brother Gao, I thought you would choose Chunyanlou or Jiaofangsi."

Zhuang Renhe smiled.

He might be the only person in Qinghe City who knew Gao Zhen's identity. He knew Gao Zhen's recent absurd behavior very well.

Gao Zhen changed his usual dandy look and said seriously like a weak scholar:

"These are just the tasks assigned by the ancestor."

"Task?"

Zhuang Renhe was interested.

He felt that Gao Zhen's coming to Anningwei would definitely not be so simple from the beginning.

Gao Zhen nodded: "Yes, Master asked me to kill a few people. If it is convenient for County Magistrate Zhuang, please help me."

As he said.

He dipped his finger in the wine in the glass and wrote down the names on the table one by one.

"Green Clothes, Peach Heart Tan Hu, Li Rui, Ning Zhongtian."

When Zhuang Renhe saw Ning Zhongtian, his brows furrowed into a "chuan" shape.

"Ning Zhongtian?"

This list is completely unrelated. First, it lists a dozen prostitutes from Chunyan Tower, and then the officials and soldiers of Anning Guard.

He narrowed his eyes slightly.

The list of prostitutes sent to him by his men a few days ago appeared in his mind.

Most of the names match what Gao Zhen wrote.

"So cunning!"

The list is exactly the women who were played to death by Gao Zhen. Obviously, Gao Zhen looks ridiculous on the surface, but in fact, he did it on purpose.

Under the name of lust, he completed the task arranged by the ancestor.

Almost even deceived Zhuang Renhe.

"This Ning Zhongtian is the garrison of Anning Guard. If he takes action by force, it will involve too much."

Zhuang Renhe pondered.

Gao Zhen chuckled: "Brother Zhuang, you are joking. I am a newcomer, and I can't beat Lord Ning even if I fight."

"What should Brother Gao do?"

He heard that Gao Zhen had another way.

Gao Zhen raised his wine glass, took a sip, and grinned: "I can't kill him, but someone can."

"Oh?"

"Cao Wei is a member of the Xuan Party. As far as I know, Jiang Linxian has a very good relationship with Wenxian Tower. The owner of Wenxian Tower is now the director of the Imperial Observatory."

He didn't continue.

Zhuang Renhe narrowed his eyes and uttered two words: "Party strife?"

Gao Zhen smiled and nodded.

In the officialdom, if you want to kill someone, you don't necessarily have to use knives and guns.

You have to learn to take advantage of the situation.

It's normal for some ants to die when the two parties fight, right?

Zhuang Renhe's eyes flashed with surprise. He knew Gao Shoubei quite well. He heard that he was accepted as a disciple by the Blood Shadow Ancestor a few years ago. Before that, he had always been a well-behaved member of the Gao family and had never entered the martial arts world or officialdom.

He thought he was a rookie.

He didn't expect him to be so scheming.

"This boy is a born bad guy."

He commented in his heart, but said: "Brother Gao is resourceful. I admire you, but there is still one thing I don't understand. Why does the ancestor want these people?"

Gao Zhong smiled and said two words: "Immortal Venerable."

"Immortal Venerable?!"

Zhuang Renhe's pupils shrank suddenly.

"Immortal Venerable said that he doesn't like the cause and effect of Qinghe."

"Tiezhu, you have entered the rank?"

Li Rui looked at Liu Tiezhu, who looked honest, in disbelief.

How long has he been practicing martial arts?

Three months?

How did he enter the rank?

Liang He also widened his eyes and looked at Liu Tiezhu as if he was looking at a monster.

"You have reached the rank so easily, then what am I?!"

Liang He was not jealous, but envious.

It took him several years to reach the rank under Li Rui's guidance, but Liu Tiezhu became a ninth-rank warrior without knowing it.

Li Rui bent over and looked at him for a long time before straightening up.

"Natural Vajra is really extraordinary."

Ninth-rank Stone Skin is just a realm for forging the body. As long as the body is strong enough, one can reach the rank without practicing martial arts.

He had seen in the book that the natural Vajra advanced very quickly in the first three ranks.

Tan Hu is an excellent example.

Ning Zhongtian is already a genius, but he is still nearly thirty-five or thirty-six years old. He broke through to Liu Jin with the resources of the Annan Army.

But Tan Hu must have relied on pure fighting and killing in the Northwest Frontier Army to become Liu Jin naturally.

It's terrible.

"But even Brother Tan seems to have spent a full six months."

Li Rui asked Liu Tiezhu about his recent practice in detail, and finally confirmed.

It was due to Changchun Gong and the Xuanqing Qi injected into Liu Tiezhu's body.

"Changchun, Changchun, one tree rises, all things come to life"

Li Rui murmured.

He seemed to have realized something in his heart.

One person does not count as spring, all things come to life!

He himself did not expect that his self-created Changchun Gong could actually help people practice.

Liu Tiezhu broke through, and the Xuanqing Qi in his body was also nourished by Qi and blood. As he nourished Qi for a long time, Li Rui could also benefit.

Perhaps this is the true meaning of Changchun.

"Wonderful, wonderful."

Li Rui nodded with a smile.

He seemed to see the door to a new world.

One person's enlightenment brings success to all.

His Changchun Gong has the effect of helping people practice, and after helping, it can feed back to himself, which is wonderful!

"Tiezhu, come on, practice hard, you will have a bright future."

"Yes, Master."

Liu Tiezhu scratched his head.

He didn't go out until noon.

Li Rui and Liang He found something wrong and rushed into the house to ask.

He laughed and told him that he had entered the rank.

Liang He was happy for Liu Tiezhu from the bottom of his heart: "Junior brother, congratulations, you will be prosperous in the future, but don't look down on your senior brother."

Don't know why.

Liu Tiezhu's eyes turned red instantly.

Liang He was a little at a loss for a moment. As a senior brother, of course he had to care for his only junior brother.

"Junior brother, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Tiezhu, a man, was so choked that he could not speak.

Why?

Touching.

I'm not lying, Yu State implemented a household registration system, which did not simply register people, but strictly divided them.

A person with a low status is a person with a low status. They have a low status from generation to generation. The descendants of a craftsman family are also a craftsman family. The descendants of a noble family are born rich.

His father is a blacksmith, so he is also a blacksmith.

In the blacksmith shop, if you get benefits, you won't get praise, but you will only be jealous by the class leader. If you are happy at the time, you will vomit out the things behind you, and you will even be beaten.

How could it be as heart-warming as it is now?

Master and senior brother all express their heartfelt blessings.

Li Rui sighed.

Liu Tiezhu was a craftsman, but he was even worse. He was from a lowly household, so of course he understood the ins and outs of it.

He patted Liu Tiezhu's thick shoulder: "Since you have resigned from the country, you must change your way of life and make a break with the past."

"Yes, Master."

Liu Tiezhu's nose drooped, and it fell onto his shoes as he nodded.

"Okay, a big man, I won't do this in the future."

Li Rui chuckled.

Although Liu Tiezhu was born as a king and was born as a blacksmith, he was actually a sensitive and sensitive man.

He walked out with his hands behind his back.

As the apprentice makes progress, the master can also worry less.

Whether your martial arts is good or not is secondary. If your character is good, then it won't be bad.

In the military camp.

There was a circle of people surrounding him, all talking.

"What's wrong with this guy?"

"I heard that he violated military discipline and was caught by Master Gao, who cut off one of his arms."

"Master Gao?"

"The new guard master, you idiot."

middle.

A young man wearing armor was lying in a pool of blood, his right arm had been cut off, and he was smiling tall and holding his hands behind his back.

"Without military discipline, if you steal weapons, you should be executed!"

Gao Zhong's eyes instantly became sharp, which was called a person of justice and selflessness.

At this time.

A strong man who looked like a small tower rushed into the crowd.

His eyes were like those of a tiger trying to devour: "Gao, what do you mean?"

The injured person was a soldier of Benhuqi.

Gao Zhen smiled slightly: "This person stole weapons, and everyone got the stolen goods. He should be killed with military law. This knife is the evidence."

Tan Hu looked in the direction pointed by Gao Zhen with bare eyes.

A standard long knife was soaked in blood.

"With just one knife, can you tell it's a stolen weapon?"

Tan Hu clearly knows the habits of each of his soldiers, so he firmly believes that he will not steal weapons.

Gao Zhen's face showed displeasure: "I saw it with my own eyes, so what?"

"Tan Baihu doesn't even believe what I said."

Apparently.

If this is to use officials to suppress people, Tan Hu is only a hundred households, half a level lower, then he has no right to question Gao Zhen.

"you"

Tan Hu was furious, with veins bulging on his face.

He can allow his soldiers to die on the battlefield, but he must not be hacked in the military camp for no reason.

He turned to look at Tang Hai, who was pale.

Tang Hai shook his head desperately, trying to prove that he was wronged.

Tan Hu nodded towards Tang Hai.

"I know."

About to attack.

Li Rui's voice sounded behind him: "This matter has not been clarified yet, so please don't be rude to Mr. Gao."

Tan Hu turned his head.

Then he saw Li Rui appeared behind him.

"Brother Li, this is the matter."

Li Rui interrupted Tan Hu and looked at Gao Zhen: "Master Gao, even if this person deserves to die, he should be handed over to the Law Enforcement Hall."

Gao Zhen snorted coldly:

"how?"

"The Law Enforcement Hall can kill, but I can't just defend myself?"

Tan Hu's face turned colder.

Can it be killed?

Theoretically not.

But as we all know, theoretically not possible means possible, but depending on the situation, it means necessary.

Killing a soldier on guard means killing him first and reporting later. At most, he will attract criticism.

The military is not a government and does not care about evidence.

Sometimes it is common for several people to die in daily training. The Annan Army is not bad. If it is in the border army, an officer's words can determine the life or death of a soldier, and it will not even have the slightest impact.

Li Rui didn't answer.

Instead, turn sideways.

Then he saw Ning Zhongtian appearing in the crowd. Ning Zhongtian looked at Tang Hai in a pool of blood, then at Gao Zhen, and coldly snorted:

"Master Gao, since my soldiers have made mistakes, I will naturally deal with them, so I won't bother."

"Put it down."

Tan Hu became anxious upon hearing this, but was stopped by Ning Zhongtian's eyes.

They had no choice but to take Tang Hai away by force.

When Gao Zhen saw Ning Zhongtian, he chuckled: "It turns out they are soldiers under Lord Ning. In that case, I won't do anything more."

Say it.

He decisively turned around and walked out of the crowd.

He knew that Ning Zhongtian had appeared and it would be impossible to kill Tang Hai today.

I thought to myself:

"It's a pity that one more person can be removed from the original list."
