Kunlun one millet

Chapter 30

"Zhao Mi! You are too humble! Then Liang Shuo bought you with a box of pills?!"

In the Tiegong Temple, everyone from the Huaiying Pavilion gathered, and a box of Jade Pills was placed on the table. Luo Xixian yelled at Zhao Mi: "You want to climb up to the Chongxuan Pavilion so much? Do you want to be their running dog?"

"I do not have."

Faced with Luo Xixian's scolding and everyone's suspicious eyes, Zhao Mi could hardly lift his head, and said with a sullen face, "Chongxuan Hall is used to domineering, if he doesn't let Tie Gong Temple out, he doesn't mind crushing us at all."

Luo Xixian scolded: "Stupid to the extreme! He was threatening, but you were the only one who gave in unreservedly! Do you think he really needs the Tiegong Temple? He just wants our Huaiying Pavilion to bow our heads!"

"It's not as powerful as a man, can you not bow your head?" Zhao Mi asked.

Luo Xixian stared and nodded slightly: "Zhao Shu, I used to think that you were just a little more naughty, and you still had a bit of wit, but I didn't expect you to be such a downright softie!"

Zhao Mi felt a pent-up depression in his chest that was difficult to dispel, and said with an ugly face: "I just want to protect you all, we are not the opponents of Chongxuan Pavilion."

"The more you are afraid and shrink back, the more he will be able to succeed in the Chongxuan Hall!" Luo Xixian snapped, "Liang Shuo just saw that you are weak, so he dared to blackmail you! I don't believe that he really dared to suppress you without any scruples." come over!"

Zhao Mi looked straight at Luo Xixian: "The Liang family's children have always been contemptuous, and Liang Shuo is even more contemptuous of other people's lives. You should know this better than me. I can't bet everyone's lives on his 'fear'!"

Luo Xixian held the sword in his hand: "This is what makes him afraid! It's not your mouth!"

Zhao Mi was furious: "The teacher is not here right now, even if you want to persevere, you must have enough strength! What kind of a hero are you to kill Liang Zhongwei?!"

Luo Xixian immediately drew his sword and pointed it at Zhao Mi, the sword energy cut off a few strands of his hair: "Will you see if my sword is sharp?!"

This action immediately aroused panic among the people in the Huaiying Pavilion, several people hurriedly dragged Luo Xixian, Shi Huoguang rushed up to protect Zhao Mi, Xin Shunying frowned while holding his forehead, shaking his head in silence.

"Two, two!" Wang Juncheng followed Zhao Mi to Tiegong Temple. Seeing that the situation was not right, he hurriedly stepped forward to ease the atmosphere: "Mr. Luo, please calm down. It's because the lower officials did not do their job well and didn't arrange the residence of everyone in the Huaiying Hall. Just now I have received the news that there is an elegant and quiet courtyard in the east of the city, which is suitable for all of you who are practicing Qing Dynasty, why don't you follow the official to take a look?"

"Is it a matter of whether there is a residence?" Luo Xixian retorted loudly, waving the long sword in his hand, and others dared not approach: "Chongxuan Hall can force us to leave Tiegong Temple today, and it can go further tomorrow, forcing us to leave the Tiegong Temple." We left Xingluo County, so that we can monopolize the power to suppress the bandits! If we are a little weak and incompetent today, they will only become more arrogant! This is not a bargain in the business field, it is life and death!"

"I just want to ask one thing." Zhao Mi looked around at the Huaiying Pavilion present: "If the Chongxuan Pavilion really wants to sacrifice the cloud chariot, will we be able to resist it?"

As soon as these words came out, several people shook their heads slightly, and they were swept away by Luo Xixian's angry eyes, and they quickly lowered their heads and remained silent.

"What's the use of scaring them?" Zhao Mi said, "Now we don't need to fight Chongxuanguan to the end. It's not something to be ashamed to retreat when we face difficulties and act when we see the opportunity."

Luo Xixian shook his head and gritted his teeth: "I'm not like you, who can give up my dignity so easily."

Zhao Mi's face straightened: "If you really want to take more credit for suppressing the bandits, and your reputation and prestige should exceed Chongxuan Pavilion, then you might as well send a letter to your father and ask him to announce to the court that the [-] troops have [-] vacancies. Go up, and then raise food and pay, and send those [-] soldiers to Xingluo County to focus on suppressing bandits and monsters. It also saves us from arguing over such trivial matters. Even if you defend Tiegong Temple, how much can you win? face?"

"No need!" Luo Xixian snorted coldly.

Zhao Mi really didn't have the energy to argue with Luo Xixian any more. He clearly came to Xingluo County this time to suppress bandits and demons. Why would he get involved in such a waste of energy and unnecessary disputes?Do you want to confront your friends with swords drawn?
"I've finished my words, I don't want this box of Jade Core Pills either, anyone who wants to leave Tiegong Temple, please pack up as soon as possible." Zhao Mi turned to Wang Juncheng and said, "Master Wang, please send someone to lead me the way. "

"It's good for the lower officials to lead the way in person." Wang Juncheng sighed in his heart, obviously Zhao Mi and Luo Xixian are rare young talents, but now they are making such a fuss.

Among the more than [-] people in the Huaiying Pavilion, Shi Huoguang must have obeyed Zhao Shuyan, and he immediately turned around to pack his things. At the same time, there were a few talisman officials who were not very good at fighting skills, and it didn't take long for the important things like the alchemy furnace and the cauldron to come together. All the things were loaded into the carriage and left the Tiegong Temple.

"Mr. Luo, I warned you before." Xin Shunying came to Luo Xixian's side, watching the carriage slowly go away in the snowy night, leaving two ruts behind: "The Chongxuan Hall's move is to separate you and Zhao Xuedi, Although you are upset, what Zhao Xuedi said is not unreasonable."

"Are you also on his side?" Luo Xixian couldn't believe it.

Xin Shunying sighed softly: "What Junior Brother Zhao said pointed to the key point. What Mr. Luo wants to fight with the Chongxuan Pavilion is the achievement of suppressing the bandits, or this mere house?"

Luo Xixian made a sullen face and did not answer, Xin Shunying continued: "Mr. Luo, hasn't he thought about why Zhang Shouzuo made you the envoy of the Huaiying Pavilion? Could it be because of your swordsmanship? With all due respect, Mr. Luo's His swordsmanship is far from being able to quell the banditry alone.

Mr. Luo may have his own plan, but after all, he is still under His Honor's protection.If Mr. Luo can spend a little time, ask your father to draw a picture in the court hall, and urge [-] soldiers to come to help Xingluo County, this is the first great achievement in suppressing bandits.No matter how clever Zhao Xuedi is, he can't do it for you. This is the method he came up with for you. "

At this moment, most of the anger in Luo Xixian's chest disappeared, and he opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't want to back down due to the situation just now.

"During these days, Mr. Luo should not meet Junior Zhao." Xin Shunying said, "You two should reflect on your own. Mr. Luo should not have another conflict with the Chongxuan Pavilion before the imperial court's troops and horses are dispatched. If we can really have [-] soldiers and horses rushing to help Xingluo County, only then can we develop a great momentum and be qualified to sit on an equal footing with Chongxuan Pavilion."

Luo Xixian's father is the great Sima, although he does not have actual military power in his hands, but he is one of the three princes of the court after all, and he can meet with the king at any time and make statements on military affairs.If the matter of [-] soldiers and horses eating empty wages can be made public, those aristocratic families and dignitaries will not be safe and sound, and maybe they can take the opportunity to make a big fuss.

Thinking of this, Luo Xixian felt that he was a little confused in the past. Why didn't he seize such a good opportunity as soon as possible?To lead five hundred soldiers and horses into the wild to fight against bandits is really a low class.

"Junior Zhao is indeed smart, but this is also something that makes people dislike it." Xin Shunying smiled subtly: "I don't want to think about others, and make a show of it everywhere. The method is a good method, just say it in private, but it will hurt people's face and make trouble. It's hard to get along with."

……

Following Wang Juncheng to a house in the east of the city, there are still servants sweeping in a hurry.

"It's here. Although it's not as spacious as Tiegong Temple, it's more secluded." Wang Juncheng exhaled and rubbed his hands. Looking back, he saw Zhao Mi's head was covered with snowflakes, standing in the courtyard absent-mindedly.

"Zhao Fuli?" Wang Juncheng reminded.

"Huh?" Zhao Mi replied absent-mindedly, "Thank you, Mr. Wang."

Wang Juncheng folded his sleeves and sighed: "It's not easy to be a deputy. The more capable you are, the more you will be hated."

Zhao Mi was slightly taken aback, and then said: "Master Wang is right, in the face of power, friendship for many years is not worth mentioning at all, I was too naive in the past."

But Wang Juncheng shook his head and said, "I hope Zhao Fuli, you can keep your innocence. I don't want you to get involved too deeply in the officialdom and official career."

Zhao Mi said, "I thought Mr. Wang was used to it."

Wang Juncheng seems to be recalling: "When I was your age, I was almost so dedicated to practical affairs. Even if I couldn't kill the enemy on the battlefield, I hoped to calm down the atmosphere, revive the discipline, and save the people from the fire and water. It's a pity. , Over the past few decades, it can be said that nothing has been achieved, and even I am a vegetarian."

Zhao Mi was silent, and Wang Juncheng patted him on the shoulder: "Other times, I might be powerless, at least you and I are working together in Xingluo County, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Thank you." Zhao Mi bowed deeply.In fact, he didn't think that Wang Juncheng was the kind of person he called a vegetarian. During these days, the impression Wang Juncheng left on Zhao Mi was that he was shrewd and hardworking.

At the moment when the former county magistrate was assassinated and banditry was rampant in Xingluo County, government affairs were not neglected, such as money and food expenses, relocation of people, minor repairs of city defenses, and construction materials. Arranging it personally, Wang Juncheng can't be said to be inattentive.

To be honest, if Mr. Wang had been the original county guard, Xingluo County might not have been plagued by bandits from the very beginning.Even if the people in Chiyundu want to provoke trouble, they can't make a big disturbance.

After Wang Juncheng left, another group of Huaiyingguan monks came to the small courtyard in the east of the city, and Xin Shunying was among them.

"Mr. Luo said that he intends to stay under General Wei's tent and serve him." Xin Shunying explained: "Seven students from the house left with him, and the group of swordsman guards he recruited also went to the barracks."

"I see." This situation was also expected by Zhao Mi: "Sister Xin, won't you go there together? General Wei should need you to predict the enemy's situation based on the weather."

Xin Shunying pointed to herself and said, "I, a weak girl, you let me live in the barracks?"

"I owe it to me."

Xin Shunying narrowed her eyes: "Brother Zhao is not being thoughtless, he is blaming me, isn't he? Do you think I have spoken ill of you to Mr. Luo in private?"

Zhao Mi smiled coldly: "Sister Xin, do you see something in Luo Xixian? Do you think he is a rare commodity and has a bright future? And I might be his stumbling block, hindering his future career?"

"Zhao Xuedi has sharp eyes like an eagle, but his tongue is sharper than his eyes, which is extremely stinging." Xin Shunying walked down the corridor: "Yes, I have taken a fancy to Mr. Luo. But Zhao Xuedi should not belittle yourself. You are not a stumbling block, but a stumbling block to him. The mountains in front of you."

"Sister Xin really knows how to joke." Zhao Mi couldn't laugh.

"I'm not joking." Xin Shunying glanced at Zhao Mi: "Zhao Xuedi used to be in the hall, and there was a bright moon like the first seat. Some things are not clear, and you can't see it clearly because of the preconceived position of the talisman official. Know how good you are.

Mr. Luo was born in the sect of generals. He has been training his muscles and bones since he was a child. Later, he entered the Huaiying Pavilion to practice Qi and sword. He is also considered an outstanding figure among the younger generation.His friendship with you, apart from the meaning of friendship, actually hides some condescending intentions. "

"Nonsense." Zhao Mi retorted casually: "Although I don't want to say that, but is this how you women always care about your friends?"

Xin Shunying's smile couldn't find the slightest problem: "Xiaodi Zhao, have you forgotten that Mr. Luo is also the son of the great Sima of the dynasty. I understood it in the hall before. Between the two of you, there has always been Mr. Luo is in the limelight. Even the spells and objects you worked so hard to make are used by him to please women. If you were a narrow-minded person, you would have cut off the relationship long ago."

"When you get along with friends, there is no need to compare pennies and pennies." Zhao Mi said.

"I'm used to the magic weapon of wealth, so of course I don't need to worry about it." Xin Shunying explained the key point: "But the power and reputation are different. Since Zhao Xuedi came to Xingluo County, he has performed well in every way, especially in the battle of Sanniukeng. Mr. Luo He was trapped in ambush, but it was you who led the troops to rescue him, destroying all the arrogance hidden in his heart, how could he not have the slightest bit of jealousy towards you?"

Zhao Mi didn't know what to say. Xin Shunying was either very accurate in seeing people, or she was just making up things.He responded with a few words casually, and fell into silence when he returned to the house.

"The little girl has a bit of eyesight." Lingxiao showed his appearance, and said with a calm smile: "In the end, Luo Xixian is nothing more than an ordinary person's temperament. You should now understand why the cultivators don't connect with ordinary people."

"But I'm also an ordinary person." Zhao Mi scratched his head vigorously for a while: "Forget it, forget about it. When you met Liang Shuo just now, did you notice something strange about the maid next to him?"

"She hid it very well, and she never showed any evil spirit." Lingxiao raised her finger and tapped Zhao Mi's eyebrows: "But "Shenhu Yinwen" also has the magic of chasing, and the ghosts and ghosts hurt by this method will all go away." It can release the real form of the tiger to track it down. Since the real form talisman has sensed it, it means that this maid is the fox demon who offended the altar that day."

"It was really sent by Liang Shuo!" Zhao Mi was a little relieved: "Looking at the pomp and posture, the majesty and demeanor are complete, but it turned out to be such a person who specializes in insidious tricks. The Falu Immortal actually protects this kind of person? His ancestors Don't the immortals care about it?"

Lingxiao flicked his sleeves and turned around: "If you are sincere, dignified and upright, and you can drive immortal generals like your arms and fingers, and the majesty of Yishan can also compete on the snail's corner, how will it affect many innocent people?"

Zhao Mi vaguely understood something: "The more thoughts and more complex, the more difficult it is to summon the immortal general. No wonder that Laoshizi Jiutian Yuntai is needed, and the barrier Qingqi of Tiegong Temple is needed to protect the magic weapon."

"The morals of this world are really declining." Ling Xiao said: "Let's not say the Qing Qi is weak, but those who practice Taoism and study immortals are all so wicked."

"Then please ask Ling Xiao to be patient for a while longer." Zhao Mi helplessly spread his hands.
