I asked you to play the dungeon, but you are here to raise the BOSS?

Seeing Lin Xuan reveal his identity, Lu Junyi and the others recalled the fight just now. They were shocked and admired.

Well, I'm still a little afraid of offending the boss and having to wear small shoes in the future.

His attitude immediately became cautious and he said a lot of polite words.

However, these four people are not as thick-skinned as General Yuwen, and are not very good at handling such situations.

Yan Qing, who was the most eloquent, was also a little worried about stealing Lu Junyi's limelight, so she spoke very restrainedly.

After talking for a long time, it was nothing more than saying that he was a hero in vain, and that he didn't want there to be such a great person in the world.

Lin Xuan has already dealt with this kind of situation very naturally.

After briefly listening to Hua Rong's introduction, Lin Xuan exchanged a few words of business talk with no trace of trace, and skillfully drew the pie, implying that everyone has a bright future.

After the atmosphere increased, Lin Xuan and Ah Qing rode on a big white tiger, left the pass with the Hua family brothers and sisters, and walked up the mountain road.

This white tiger was so domineering that all the horses subconsciously avoided it. It looked like stars holding the moon.

This made Lu Junyi and others jealous, and they secretly planned to catch one when they had the opportunity.

As for the carriage, which has completed its historical mission and is not a valuable thing, it can be left as a copycat asset.

***

"Miss Ah Qing and I just arrived in Yizhou yesterday. We met Tieniu on the way, so we came here together."

"The second master may be a little further away. Since he hasn't come yet, he will definitely come to join us in a few days."

Lin Xuan, riding side by side with Hua Rong and Hua Shuang, said casually: "Well, it's a good chance to pick up these white tigers on the road."

Hua Rong and Hua Shuang had a close friendship with him from the beginning, and were second only to Lu Zhishen and Wu Song.

In this current situation, the Hua family brother and sister can be regarded as Lin Xuan's direct descendants, and they can speak more casually.

"When I heard Tieniu talk about the master's plan to break through the three levels in the Juyi Hall, I felt happy and scared at the same time. I was afraid that those people who were not discerning would offend the master."

"But I didn't expect that the master would not be seen in these days, and his cultivation has already reached the level of nature, transcending the ordinary and becoming a saint."

Hua Rong looked at Ah Qing, then glanced at Hua Shuang, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "This girl Ah Qing is as beautiful as a fairy. The younger sister specially dressed up, but she was far behind. "

"You are getting better and better at talking..."

Hua Shuang glared at Hua Rong, carefully controlled the horse, and puffed out her cheeks.

Her horse is called "Carmine", has a gentle personality, can run like flying, and is considered a good horse.

But facing the white tiger, I was still a little scared, and I would convulse from time to time.

Riding this section of road really tests your riding skills.

Her appearance and temperament were not as good as others, and her mount was not as majestic as others, which made Hua Shuang feel slightly frustrated.

"Here, let me play with you."

Ah Qing thought for a moment and handed Hua Shuang a small white tiger with clear eyes.

This expression was extremely serious, as if two five-year-old girls were sharing candy.

"Play..., okay, thank you."

Hua Shuang was stunned for a while, unable to resist the temptation, so she accidentally took the little white tiger and started to jerk it off while whispering to Ah Qing.

"Executive officers Lu, Yang Tiha, and Zhang Doujian all have a good temperament. I'm afraid they will be a little frustrated after staying in the mountains for a long time."

Lin Xuan glanced at the two girls who were whispering and looked away: "Brother Hua, how do you think you are doing on the mountain now?"

"The little girl may feel a little uncomfortable eating large pieces of meat and drinking from large bowls on the mountain, but Hua is living very comfortably."

Hua Rong hesitated for a moment: "But that's what the big boss said. A real man is born between heaven and earth. He should carry a three-foot sword and make immortal achievements. If you live in a cottage for a long time, you may lose your ambition."

"Sure enough, Brother Hua thinks the same way. With the Shanzhai's current situation, it's really time to ask for a place in history."

Lin Xuan nodded slightly: "There are many capable people on the mountain. It would be a pity if you are dormant in a corner and cannot compete with the heroes of the world."

"That's right! Huh?"

Hua Rong was slightly startled, with a strange look on his face: "Isn't the boss also thinking about recruiting people?"

"You are not Mr. Huang, and you are not taking the imperial examination."

"Even if you enter the court as an official, in the eyes of the court officials, you are just a thief trying to take advantage, and you will naturally treat him coldly."

"If the official position is too high, it might cause trouble."

Lin Xuan smiled: "Let's not talk about this. How can a man be born between heaven and earth and live in depression for a long time?"

The topic of recruitment has always been very sensitive, but it cannot be avoided.

To be honest, the Zhao'an faction in Liangshan actually accounts for the vast majority.

After all, many of them are queens of famous families and civil servants of the imperial court, and they value "loyalty to the country and meritorious service" to their core.

Even if you are not that enthusiastic about being an official, you don’t want your descendants to remain shady bandits.

Lin Xuan felt that Lu Junyi, Yang Zhi, and Zhang Qing, whom he had met before, were all interested in recruiting people.

Although Yan Qing was somewhat resistant to the recruitment, due to Lu Junyi's relationship, he could only be regarded as a neutral faction until he died.

There should be only a few people such as King Chao Tianwang, Master Lu, Wu Song, Gongsun Sheng, and Ruan Shixiong who are the truly complete opposition.

Oh, plus the stupid Li Kui...

If Lin Chong's wife hadn't died and he was alone, he would have nothing to worry about.

Maybe, he is quite active in recruiting people.

Of course, the "recruitment" part is just the yearning to become an official in the court.

Instead, we can try to change the full energy of this group of people to another target.

Well, it would be good to go to "Qingjun Side".

Let’s discuss this in detail after meeting Lao Huang and Xiao Huang.

Lin Xuan still likes the people below who are ambitious and ideal, but he is afraid that a group of salted fishes cannot lead them.

"The boss is joking. If you want to leave a name in history and not be inferior to the princes in the court, doesn't it mean that you can only become the emperor... huh?"

Hua Rong was suddenly startled, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes: "Once things like this are started, there is no turning back. We can only go one way to the end."

"The time is not particularly ripe right now. I also have some things to do. I'll discuss this later when I meet with everyone."

Lin Xuan's thoughts moved slightly: "I heard from Tieniu that Mr. Huang took Song Yasi and the others to Jiangnan. Are the other brothers now in the mountains?"

"Back to the head of the family, we received news two days ago that Yin Tianxi, the uncle-in-law of Gao Lian, the governor of Gaotang Prefecture, relied on his power to seize the house and garden of Chai Huangcheng, the uncle of Chai Daguan, and beat Chai Huangcheng to death."

"Official Chai was furious. He said he was going to get the alchemy ticket, went to Tokyo to file a complaint, and started arguing with Yin Tianxi."

"But for some reason, Yin Tianxi was so noisy that he bled from his orifices in front of Mr. Chai Daguan and died inexplicably..."

"After Gao Lian, the magistrate of Gaotang Prefecture, knew about this, he insisted that Chai Daguan had used witchcraft to kill Yin Tianxi. After beating Chai Daguan, he was thrown into death row."

Hua Rong sneered and said: "That Gao Lian is Gao Qiu's uncle. He is a cunning and insidious man. When we got rid of Gao Qiu that day, I am afraid that this guy would already have a grudge."

"There is such a thing..."

Lin Xuan thought slightly: "I also heard that Chai Jin is known as the 'Little Tornado'. He has always been generous with his wealth, and likes to recruit heroes from all over the world. He is also very kind to Chao Tianwang, Song Yasi, Lin Jiaotou and others. I guess there is no such thing in the mountain." Will you just sit back and ignore it?"

This is indeed the case in the original work. It seems that Yin Tianxi was killed by Li Kui.

There was a butterfly effect here. Li Kui was under the control of Lao Huang and did not kill Xiaoya Nei, so he naturally did not have to go to Chaijin Village to avoid trouble.

But I don’t know if there is another inside story or if the reincarnation space has a dirty hand...

Chai Jin was still clearly arranged.

Speaking of which, this Chai official is also a strange person.

He is a typical high-level player who grew up with a golden key in his mouth, but is uncomfortable with not seeking death.

As a direct descendant of Chai Shizong of the Later Zhou Dynasty, his family had an iron certificate of alchemy written by Emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin.

Once the world changes, this thing can be used as a sign to oppose Song Dynasty and Zhou Dynasty.

The Song Dynasty court was quite happy in this regard and did not liquidate the descendants of the Chai family.

Descendants of the Chai family should have made a fortune quietly and kept a low profile.

Even the wine pool and the meat forest, the young model in the club, pretending to be crazy and acting stupid.

However, Chai Jin used his righteousness to spread wealth, helped those in need, made friends with people in the world, and repeatedly took in important criminals wanted by the court.

"He killed Chaoyan's officials one by one, robbed the property of the treasury, and even Chai Jin dared to hide in the village."

This kind of person who can't understand clearly is a representative of death in any era.

If there are too many similar bad things done, the court may not be able to bear it.

Therefore, Chai Daguan was trapped in Gaotangzhou, and it was useless to move out the iron coupons of the alchemy book.

To a greater or lesser extent, there was also the tacit approval of the imperial court.

After all, whether the iron coupon of the elixir book can be used or not is still decided by the court.

"That's it. King Chao Tian said that Mr. Chai Daguan has a favor with Shanzhai. Today he is in danger. How can we just stand by and watch?"

"The day before yesterday, King Chao Tian personally led nearly 10,000 horse and infantry troops to attack Gaotang Prefecture."

Hua Rong thought for a while: "About twenty leaders also came one after another. Master Lu, Coach Lin, Lao Qin, Liu Tang, and Ruan Shixiong were all accompanying them. The military advisor of the team was Zhu Wu, the divine military advisor. It should be foolproof, the master will just wait on the mountain for a few days."

"Although Gao Lian is quite capable, he is a bit reckless in provoking Liangshan like this."

Lin Xuan pondered for a moment: "Before Taoist Master Gongsun left, did you explain Gao Lian's origins?"

If the opponent was Gao Lian, it might not be as smooth as Hua Rong said.

According to the original work, although Gao Lian was not a good official, he was extremely proficient in magic.

It can fly sand and rocks at every turn, the sky is dark and the earth is dark, and the sun is dull, but it can also fly in the clouds and mist, and command three hundred flying divine soldiers.

Probably a third level mage.

However, in the world view of Water Margin, the third level of mages is also an existence that military commanders cannot defeat...

This guy just relied on magic to win consecutive battles, losing thousands of soldiers in Liangshan, and beating Song Jiang, Wu Yong and others into isolation.

Later, Dai Zong and Li Kui went to Erxian Mountain to find Gongsun Sheng and ask for help.

Luo Zhenren also said that Gongsun Sheng was at least fifty-fifty with Gao Lian, and he made a special trip to teach him the "Five Thunder Tiangang Zhengfa", which was how he finally defeated Gao Lian.

Now that Master Luo has emerged, Lin Xuan doesn't know what state Gongsun Sheng is in, so he will probably take action himself.

"Taoist Master Gongsun..."

Hua Rong thought for a moment: "Oh, Taoist Master Gongsun said that Gao Lian is his uncle's disciple and is proficient in evil arts. Everyone must be more careful when encountering this person."

"Uncle? In other words, Master Luo's junior brother?"

Lin Xuan thought slightly: "What's that person's name?"

"I heard from Taoist Master Gongsun that his uncle's name is Qiao Daoqing, and he was named 'Inspirational Master to Protect the Country' by Tian Hu."

"This guy is quite interesting."

Lin Xuan's mind moved slightly and he began to think secretly.

The sections of "Water Margin" and "Liangshan Conquest of Tianhu" and "Wang Qing" were added later and were not written by Shi Naian.

It seems that this is still the setting of the early simple version.

Qiao Daoqing studied martial arts with Zhenren Luo, and his magic skills were also extremely advanced. Unfortunately, due to fate, he became Tian Hu's subordinate.

Master Luo taught Gongsun Sheng the method of restraining Qiao Daoqing, but he only gained the upper hand through a battle of wits.

The old Taoist was finally persuaded by Qiong Ying and surrendered.

In the 120-chapter version of the combined traditional and simplified version that was commonly used in later generations, this veteran's skill was lowered, making his spells become those taught by strangers.

But the weakened strength can be regarded as at least the second-tier top mage.

With just one breath, he captured Li Kui and other 500 regiment harpooneers. Masters such as Lu Zhishen and Wu Song were also vulnerable to the golden armored magic soldiers he summoned and were easily captured.

Later, he used the "Samadhi Divine Water" to turn the plain into the sea, leaving the Liangshan army with no way to advance or retreat, and forcing Song Jiang to almost commit suicide.

In the end, it was Hou Tu who took action himself to turn the sea into flat land again.

Based on this description, he is at least half an immortal.

This kind of master can travel thousands of miles a day casually. If he has any plans to take action, he will definitely appear in Gaotangzhou.

Don't take any chances.

"Puff!"

Lin Xuan was about to speak when he saw a carrier pigeon flying rapidly from a distance and landed on Hua Rong's wrist.

"It's a military flying pigeon."

Hua Rong's eyes narrowed and he took off the letter paper tied to the pigeon's feet: "Huh?"

"How's the battle going?"

Lin Xuan nodded and asked casually.

"King Chao Tian said that he happened to meet the second master and a frail old man near Gaotangzhou, who was the biological father of the second master."

"Hearing that King Chao Tian was going to attack Gaotang Prefecture, Senior Huang and the Second Master also came to the army."

Hua Rong showed joy: "Commander Zhu also specifically said that Senior Huang is a peerless master. His Qi Men Dun Jia and Tao Lue tactics are far superior to him. He should be able to succeed in one battle."

"Has the battle been successful..."

Lin Xuan looked back at Ah Qing: "Qing'er, let's go and have a look too."

Huang Rong and Huang Yaoshi's martial arts are naturally quite good.

Even if the five tigers from Liangshan come together, they may not be able to defeat this father and daughter.

But what they faced was an even more outrageous existence, and Lin Xuan was really a little uneasy...

"OK."

Ah Qing blinked: "But do you know the way?"

"The last time I went to Bianjing, I passed through Gaotang Prefecture, so I didn't go wrong."

"My side..."

Ah Qing hesitated for a moment: "Sister Hua, is there a veterinarian on our mountain? I plan to ask someone to take care of my four tigers."

"Yes, we have a leader named Purple Beard Bohuang Fu Duan, who is in charge of treating animals. He is very capable."

"Since it is the master's order, he will naturally not neglect it."

Huashuang pursed her lips and smiled: "Actually, I can also help feed the tiger. If the tiger gets sick, go to the veterinarian."

"Okay, I'll beg you, Dabai Erbai, be obedient and don't cause trouble."

Ah Qing was overjoyed and put the little white tiger in Hua Shuang's hand, turned over and got off the tiger: "Lin Xuan, let's go."

"Well, without further ado, it would be better to leave early."

Lin Xuan took Ah Qing's little hand and said, "Brother Hua, Miss Hua, let's go over and have a look. We have two helpful people here."

"Master, don't be anxious. There are fast horses specially prepared for the mountain... huh?"

Hua Rong blinked and looked at the figures of Lin Xuan and A Qing disappearing rapidly, then closed her mouth in dismay.

Huashuang: "???"

"roar!"

Seeing that the two of them looked like they had never seen the world, the two big white tigers raised their heads proudly and twisted their buttocks.

"It's because we are so rare that we are so weird that we made the two tiger brothers laugh..."

Hua Rong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile: "He is already a peerless talent, and after so many years, mediocre people like us can't speculate on it."

"It's okay for you to say that, but can you please not involve me..."

Hua Shuang's face was expressionless: "Having a brother like you is really tiring."

"Little sister, can you compare to Miss Huang back then, or...or Miss Ah Qing today?"

"Shut up!"

***

Almost at the same time, Liang Shanbo's army arrived at the border of Gaotang Prefecture and set up camp.

Bugles sounded one after another in the military camp, and the snow-white tent faced the city more than ten miles away.

The command tent in the center covers an area of ​​hundreds of square meters and looks very distinctive.

In the large tent, Huang Rong, Chao Gai, Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong and others stood around the sand table in the center.

"Okay, this is how the troops of both sides are deployed."

"Now the Gao Zhifu is reorganizing its troops and planning to leave the city to meet the enemy."

Huang Yaoshi pointed to the sand table he had made with his own hands: "It's ridiculous that although Gao Lian is on horseback to manage the army and dismounted to manage the people, he is just arranging people to go to the city to guard the city, leading the sergeant Hu Chong in a stupid way, and he doesn't know what our military strategists are doing. wonderful?"

Huang Yaoshi's ancestors made great achievements during the reign of Zhao Kuangyin. They were once granted the title of marquis and duke, and they were considered a scholarly family.

However, during the Jingkang Disgrace, Huang Yaoshi's ancestors resisted the Jin Dynasty and most of them died on the battlefield.

Later, Huang Yaoshi's grandfather was murdered by Qin Hui because of his impeachment. The family was also expelled from the army and sent to Yunnan, and their family fortunes were completely in decline.

As a result, Huang Yaoshi was extremely dissatisfied with the imperial court. When he was young, he often posted various notices blaming the imperial court.

Now, in the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, Lao Huang is even more dissatisfied with the emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, and has no psychological burden for the rebellion.

"Senior Huang is truly a great military strategist. With such an accurate sand table to distinguish the topography of mountains and rivers, our army has already won more than half of the battle."

Military strategist Zhu Wu looked at the sand table that Huang Yaoshi had finished making, and his expression was shocked.

"Yes! This bird... This sand table looks good, and it is clear at a glance."

Lu Zhishen was overjoyed: "I used to follow Mr. Zhong Jinglie, and I have never seen such a fine thing."

"I think so too."

"Me too."

Qin Ming and others nodded and agreed.

"It's just a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning."

Huang Yaoshi smiled faintly, feeling secretly happy.

Although he regarded himself as a noble man who was detached from the world and did not care about worldly affairs.

But he still valued face very much.

I had heard that Lin Xuan's martial arts were superb before, and he was somewhat opposed to it in his words.

He was also afraid that others would say that he was currying favor with the powerful, turning into a licking dog, and climbing up the high branch.

"I just asked Master Lin. Most of these Liangshan soldiers have been trained for two or three years."

"Even if they are not as skilled as the fingers of an arm, they can be considered elite soldiers."

Huang Rong said with a smile: "Dad, you often brag about your military prowess. Now you can show your strengths."

"Please give me your instructions, Senior Huang."

Chao Gai hesitated and bowed.

He was not proficient in military tactics and liked to rush into a fight.

Now Huang Yaoshi is Huang Rong's father and a professional.

Chao Gai simply handed over the command.

"Well, these Liangshan soldiers are elite, and Master Lin, Lu Zhijie and others are also rare and fierce generals..."

Huang Yaoshi pondered and said: "We can try the Twenty-Eight Constellations Formation."

"Twenty-Eight Constellations Formation?"

Zhu Wu's eyes lit up and he was extremely excited.

"Well, in the past, the twenty-eight generals of the Yuntai responded to the celestial phenomena, used the righteous to defeat the unrighteous, and assisted Emperor Guangwu of Han in his revival."

"Although my twenty-eight constellations formation cannot match the momentum of Emperor Guangwu of Han, it can also resist the enemy and defend the country. It is indeed a brilliant army."

Huang Yaoshi boasted a few words and smiled: "There are not many capable people in Gaotang Prefecture. We will divide our troops into five groups, and each team of a thousand people will be more than enough."

"Please give me your instructions, senior."

"The center belongs to earth, so Rong'er will coordinate in the middle."

"The south belongs to fire, and Qin Ming, the thunderbolt, will lead it."

"The north belongs to water, and Lu Zhishen, the flower monk, will lead it."

"The east belongs to wood, so I will lead the army myself."

"The remaining west belongs to gold, so it will be handed over to Leopard Head Lin Chong."

"We will attack and contain Gao Lian's main formation together, and the matter of breaking the city will be handed over to Chao Tianwang and Zhu Junshi."

Huang Yaoshi kneaded the sand table and soon arranged the routes of the troops.

He also took into full consideration the other party's ability to understand, and arranged each link very easily.

"We will obey your orders!"

Qin Ming, Lu Zhishen, and Lin Chong looked at each other and nodded.

Although they were reckless, they were born as military generals, so they could quickly master this arrangement.

For Huang Rong, this was even a piece of cake.

"The old gentleman is far-sighted, and I will rely on you this time. When the city is broken, you will be credited with the first merit."

Although Chao Gai didn't know much about military affairs, he was the most relaxed with Zhu Wu's assistance.

Well, even if he lost, it would be the second in command who would take the blame, and it would not be the third in command's turn...

"Very good! When Gao Lian opens the city gate, we will follow this formation and fight to decide the outcome."

Huang Yaoshi smiled proudly, looking a little proud.

He was still a little vigilant, and just now he asked seriously about Gao Lian's deeds.

I found out that he was just an ordinary official, and all he did were some shameless things, and he only knew how to use magic to scare people.

Illusions...

If they were really useful, would the country still be destroyed by the Jin people?

It's settled today!
