Four lanterns

Chapter 40

After "Mr. Wu" Shi Lei settled Shi Bingguo, he returned to Lu Qiu's guest room as quickly as possible. "Are you okay?" Seeing Wu Langzhong's pale face, Shi Lei asked with concern. "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way." Wu Langzhong waved his hands, but didn't make too much noise, and sat quietly by Lu Qiu's bed.Shi Lei didn't dare to ask more questions, and sat beside Lu Qiu's bed and waited quietly for a while.Wu Langzhong should have slowed down and waved at Shi Lei. "General Shi, come here. I need you to help me use the power of the lamp fog to deliver this pill to Lu Qiu's mouth, and then make the pill melt. It's very simple, just condense the lamp fog on the palm of your hand, and then Feeling the connection between the lamp mist and the pill, introduce the pill into the body, and then increase the strength of the lamp mist to catalyze it immediately." Wu Langzhong briefly explained the technique of using the lamp mist, Shi Lei also has a high understanding, and completed it decently Wu Langzhong's assignment, although he didn't control the force well halfway and almost shattered the pill in Lu Qiu's mouth, but fortunately, there was no danger.

"Young General Shi, if you don't want to gallop on the battlefield, you can practice medicine with me, and I will teach you the skills of your life." Wu Langzhong looked at Shi Lei's talent and wanted to accept him as an apprentice, but Shi's army was in Mengzi City. Even with his status in the Northern Qi Army, it is impossible for Shi Lei to give up his position as the eldest son of Shi Lei and practice medicine with himself. After Wu Langzhong finished speaking, he smiled to cover up the embarrassment in his heart.

Whether it was a coincidence or not, Lu Qiu who was lying on the bed coughed suddenly, breaking the awkward atmosphere in the room. "General Lu Qiu, are you awake?" Shi Lei rushed up, saw Lu Qiu's eyes slowly opened, his pupils gradually regained his expression, he was overjoyed, he rushed out of the room and told Shi Bingguo, after a while, Shi Bingguo followed Shi Lei entered the room.

"Brother Lu Qiu, did Lu Bei's trip achieve his goal?" Shi Bingguo asked.

"The result is not very good. I encountered a very troublesome thing." Lu Qiu looked at Wu Langzhong, and then at Shi Bingguo.

"Lei'er, help Langzhong Wu to rest first," Shi Bingguo said to Shi Lei, then stood up and bowed slightly to Langzhong Wu to express his gratitude.Following Shi Lei gently closed the door.Lu Qiu finally opened his mouth to describe what he saw outside the territory.

"You mean, there are lighthouses besides the Pangea Lighthouse? The lighthouse in Lubei City has not been extinguished?" Shi Bingguo asked in surprise. "Brother Lu Qiu, could it be that you have hallucinations? If according to your description, then I, Mengzi City, should at least have observed the reflection of lighthouses outside the territory. Shi Lei also followed you to the border of the Lantern Domain, but he didn't hear Lei'er Said something unusual."

"General Shi, at that time I had already condensed the light fog of the smoking locker, my eyes and brain were no longer normal, and the possibility of hallucinations basically did not exist. Cough cough cough cough." Although Lu Qiu knew that this encounter was not credible Not high, but at this moment, he desperately hopes that someone can accept his investigation results, and then analyze Lu Bei's situation with him.Fortunately, this person is Shi Bingguo.

"Brother Lu Qiu, don't worry, it's just that I heard such a description for the first time, so I couldn't believe it immediately. If this thing really exists, then this conspiracy is too big, and I'm afraid it's not something you and I can solve. Just imagine, if the Pangea delineated by the Sifang Lighthouse is not the only existence in this world, it means that there is a civilized continent outside the scope of the Sifang Lighthouse, the rumored lost one, the one hidden deep in the darkness. Lost people, they may be human beings just like us. No, Lu Qiu, this matter is indeed too huge. You can tell the truth to Dai Ming, but this matter is limited to the three of us. There is no conclusive evidence Before, these words, these remarks may bring disaster to us." Shi Bingguo said lightly, his body was trembling slightly at the moment, and Shi Bingguo laughed at himself.Thinking of what Lu Qiu said, if true, would be a discovery that would overturn the history of the mainland, Shi Bingguo tolerated his trembling a lot.

"Brother Lu Qiu, before Lu Bei's calamity, my informants received news that Yuan Chongwen and Bai Xin were secretly confiscating the lamp oil sent to Lu Beicheng. This information was secretly sent to Lu Xuanlang at the time, but it was not received. Lu Xuanlang has nothing to do about it." Shi Bingguo believes that Lu Qiu should know all the information about Lu Beicheng at present, and through Lu Qiu's information integration and analysis capabilities, he can understand the truth about Lu Beicheng.

"Stealing lamp oil? That is to say, Yuan and Bai hope that the Lubei Lighthouse will be extinguished early?" Lu Qiu analyzed: "If the Lubei Lighthouse is extinguished early, then the lost will invade. Regardless of whether Lubei City perishes or not, Yuan, Bai Both Bai and Bai can use this condition to go to the Holy Master to increase the troops and strengthen the defensive power of Fengyuan and Mengzi City. In this way, Yuan Chongwen will have more soldiers in his hands. Why does Yuan Chongwen need so many soldiers? He is already the Secretary of the Ministry of War." Lu Qiu thought of this joint, as if he couldn't find the reason for Yuan Chongwen's increase of troops.

"I followed the late emperor and fought against the Lu family for several years. In addition to my Shi family, there was also the Ye family in the south. We reached an agreement with the Qi family. Once the Qi family came to power, the Mengzi area in the north would be allocated to the Shi family. The Jianan area in the south was assigned to the Ye family. Yuan Chongwen was the former emperor's personal soldier, who is now the commander of the Xuanjia camp. It is a pity that after all, Yuan Chongwen did not have his own sphere of influence, so in the end he was only given to Fengyuan as the gatekeeper, barely giving him the power to govern the region. But where is Fengyuan, it is the capital of the Northern Qi Dynasty The post of Fengyuan Guanshou seems to be a good one, but Yuan Chongwen is always hindered. After the death of the first emperor, Yuan Chongwen was appointed Minister of the Ministry of War and assisted in the government together with Dai Ming. Dai Ming married the younger sister of the current emperor, so he was naturally favored by the emperor. He regards him as one of his own, while Yuan Chongwen is depressed and unwilling." Shi Bingguo couldn't help but look solemn when he talked about the past.

"What exactly does Yuan Chongwen want to do? The current Northern Qi's national power can be regarded as upper-middle among the four countries." Lu Qiu asked. He believed that he had to find out the crux of Yuan Chongwen's heart before he could deduce Lu Bei's conspiracy.

"What Yuan Chongwen wants is within the area of ​​the Sifang Lantern, and I am the only one in the Northern Qi Dynasty!" Shi Bingguo said with a sigh.
