Rebirth of the Phoenix

A huge gift

Entering the tent as the living room, he saw a woman wearing a green robe, wrapped in a blue headscarf, and only her eyes exposed, sitting quietly on a chair on one side, being watched by two personal soldiers.

Hearing the footsteps, the woman raised her head, her big black eyes exuded a warm smile.

"Liang Hongye!" He cursed softly, walked to Hongzhuang, and said to the two personal soldiers, "You go out."

The two personal soldiers looked at them curiously and went out.

The curtain of the tent was hanging down, Ye Jiu stared at Hongzhuang and said coldly: "What are you doing here?"

Hongzhuang loosened the turban, showed her face, and smiled: "I have never been your enemy, do you hate me so much?"

Her face, without makeup, was white and red, like a newly ripe peach, shining with a moist luster and fresh vitality.

Ye Jiu had no expression on his face: "What's the matter with me?"

When he was dying, she saved him; when he was desperate, she risked her life to protect him, and without her, he would not live today.

In comparison, the third young master, Hongyou just helped him. Without them, he could survive, but without her, he would definitely not live today, so she is his only, real life-saving benefactor.

He didn't hate her - if she hadn't stole the name of "Hongzhuang", but after she stole that name, he never wanted to see her or hear her name again.

Hongzhuang smiled: "I know you are going to Weishanguan to station, so I want to give you a huge gift and also want to talk to you about a deal."

Ye Jiu refused: "I don't need your gift, nor do I want to negotiate a deal with you. You can go back."

Hongzhuang said, "Why don't you listen to me first and tell me what kind of gift it is?"

Ye Jiu said: "I don't want to owe you favors, nor do I want to waste my time."

Hongzhuang sighed: "We have been sharing the joys and sorrows for so long, and I thought we were at least allies."

Ye Jiu said: "I don't need allies."

Hongzhuang sighed softly, took out a piece of folded parchment from her sleeve and unfolded it.

On the parchment paper is a huge, complex map with some lines and locations marked in red.

Ye Jiu's eyes fell on this map: What does she want to do?

Hongzhuang said slowly: "After returning to Beijing, you must have heard that the third young master found the treasure of the Ghost Treasure a few months ago. To be honest, these treasures were the first ones I discovered."

Ye Jiu looked at him slightly: Did she find it? This is really amazing inside story!

He was a little surprised, but not surprised. She could save him, why could she not find a treasure that had been buried for nearly a thousand years?

Hongzhuang said: "For some reasons, I fell into the underground maze of the Ghost Hidden King in the Demon Sea Desert and discovered those treasures. I dedicated those treasures to the third young master, but I did not hand them all over, but secretly hid them.

Part of it is probably one-tenth of the entire treasure.”

Ye Jiu felt a little surprised: She is really... omnipotent and bold!

When the third young master found the treasure, he was still in Mo Yun, so he naturally didn't know about the big event that happened in Tiandu. However, he also had his own eyes and ears in Tiandu. As soon as he came back, he heard about it.

It is said that those treasures were filled with more than a dozen carriages, which was worth several years of treasury income in the entire Xiliang Kingdom.

It can be imagined that one-tenth of the treasure is already an amazing number!

If you hide so many treasures, once the royal family knows, you will kill the nine clans!

If what she said was true, then her "courage" was comparable to his "arrogance".

Hongzhuang looked at him and smiled: "These treasures are left to you by me."

Ye Jiu was almost never touched by anyone or anything, but at this moment, he was slightly stunned and looked directly at her, but still didn't say anything.

Although he was extremely angry at her using the name "Red Makeup" and even had the urge to kill her for a while, he also knew that this woman was not only the only one in the world who knew all his secrets, but perhaps the only one who would follow him

Like-minded people.

It would not be surprising if she made such an amazing move for revenge.

Hongzhuang's fingers pointed on the red dot on the map and said, "This is the complete map of the underground maze located in the deep Demon Sea Desert of the Ghost Hidden King. These red dots are the place where I secretly buried my treasure.

It is very easy to find and dig around the entrance. I think it will not be too difficult to find the location of the underground palace. These treasures can not only maintain your army, but also maintain them for many years."

Her second half of the words touched Ye Jiu.

What he needs most now is excellent equipment, and the superiors cannot allocate it to him. If he wants to raise this army well, he will need a lot of money.

Even if he steals or robs other troops of equipment, it is just a temporary measure and takes huge risks and cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

If he had this batch of money, he could not only build the Silhouette Army into the most well-equipped army, but also continue to recruit soldiers and quickly expand the scale of the Silhouette Army.

When he came to Xiliang, he did bring a lot of silver notes from Li Yang, but in the past two years, he spent almost all his money. Now what is left is for an army of ten thousand people, just

A drop in the bucket.

This treasure can almost be said to be a timely help.

But, is this woman so "selfless"?

He looked up and stared at Hongzhuang: "What do you want?"

Hongzhuang smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, I really want to help you?"

Ye Jiu didn't answer, but asked: "What do you want?"

Hongzhuang looked at him quietly: "I want to join the army with you and be your assistant."

Ye Jiuqian thought about it for a long time, but he never thought that her request was like this.

"No." After a moment, he refused.

"Why can't it?" Hongzhuang asked seriously, "Your army also has female soldiers. What's wrong with me being one more woman? Moreover, I will definitely help you and will never become a burden to you. When I was in Li Yang, I was in the process of being a gangster.

You said you couldn't care about me and said I would drag you down, but over the past two years, I think I have proved to you that I can not only protect myself, but also do many things, such as eliminating enemies, collecting intelligence,

For example, giving advice, finding treasures..."

Ye Jiu interrupted her: "I don't know what you have done, and I don't care. However, the war is definitely not as simple as you think. It's not a game that women can play..."

"Can't play?" Hongzhuang sneered, "No matter how dangerous the battlefield is, how dangerous it is than the palace? The enemies on the battlefield are even more dangerous than Ying Rushuang? Ye Jiu, don't forget to play with Ying Rushuang, and

You are not the only one who can live to this day! And I am! Do you think, how many times have I saved you? I live to this day like you, but you dare to look down on me?"

Ye Jiu: "..."

He almost forgot that she was never a weak person, and to some extent, she was simply another him.

Hongzhuang said again: "You don't know. It's not long before you went to Moyun, Phantom and Youmang arrived in Tiandu and found me."

Ye Jiu's eyes sank, his face became cold and stern: Those two people have actually come? Did Ying Rushuang really find out his whereabouts?

Hongzhuang said: "Of course they wanted to kill me, but they didn't succeed. Do you think the people you want to defeat on the battlefield will be more difficult to deal with than Phantom and Youmang? Do you think I can live in the deep palace

If you go down, can't you survive in the army?"

"Ye Jiu——" She looked sharp and her tone became strong, "Our goals are always the same! I need you, and with my help, you will definitely be like a tiger! Even if you don't like me, you won't be able to see you anymore!

If you come to me, you can’t deny my value and your needs!”

"Yejiu, you need someone like me! Think about the help and effect I can give you, think about what kind of person Ying Rushuang is, and then think about how to do the best!"

Ye Jiu pursed his lips and asked: "Where are the Phantom and the Ghost?"

Pulling Ying Rushuang's claws would not kill her, but it would be good to make her feel pain.

Hongzhuang said: "The third young master has been looking for them. They have changed a nest and cannot hide. I don't know where they are hiding, but I only know that they must still be in Tiandu. After you return to Tiandu, the person who assassinated you will have

The ones who secretly follow you should be them."

Ye Jiu stopped talking, as if he was thinking.

He offended the powerful people in Tiandu for many days and thought that he would die, but the attack he was hit on the day he returned to Beijing was a bit too blatant, not like the powerful people. With his current status and reputation, those powerful people

Even if he was to kill him, he would not be so direct. He would only do things that indirectly force him to a dead end like a concubine.

During this period, he had been vaguely feeling stared at by others, but the other party was very secretive and careful, both professional and clever, and did not do anything like the powerful people in Tiandu. The powerful people in Tiandu were in the palace and paid tribute to each other.

There are many connections and ears in the Zhonghe Army. If you want to grasp his whereabouts, you don’t need to be so sneaky-unless you want to assassinate him.

The other party's style is indeed very similar to the secret exploration institution of Ying Rushuang.

He suddenly thought that on the day he returned to Beijing, the kite that Kanli received in the mansion was her doing, right?

Who would do this except her?

After thinking for a while, he looked at Hongzhuang: "In the army, having a brain alone is not enough. You have to fight your life on the tip of the knife every day..."

Before he finished speaking, Hongzhuang sneered repeatedly, took out something from his arms and slammed it heavily on the table.

What is precisely what is like that is two identical things, and even Ye Jiu's eyes were a little straight: two iron claws?

"I will prove to you that I am not just a good brain!" Hongzhuang said coldly, picking up one of the steel claws, skillfully putting it on, and then picking up another steel claws, putting it on again.

After putting it on, she raised her hands, ten long, sharp, and hard iron claws shining with a cold and silvery luster.

"Do you know how many people I have killed? Do you know how many masters I have killed?" She looked straight into Ye Jiu's eyes, her eyes were colder and sharper than steel claws, "Ye Jiu, you have to remember, I'll save me

If you live your life more than once, if you underestimate me, you will underestimate yourself!"
