Commander's Destiny

Chapter 39
Just when Bai Wuyan was at his wit's end, he heard Zhai Lingxiu asking inexplicably, "Brother Bai, is that monstrous wave your spell? It's really powerful. You managed to get rid of the sister of the Li family. They all Let's go, now you can let the scholar surnamed Qin come out."

After she said this, even Yao Jingli and Jiang Qianfeng looked sideways, looking at Bai Wuyan expectantly.

The atmosphere couldn't help but become weird, Bai Wuyan's forehead was sweating profusely, he didn't know how to speak in embarrassment, so he walked slowly towards the dilapidated sacrificial altar with heavy steps, stepping twice and turning his head.

As he walked, he thought about what he should do.

Do you want to tell everyone that all this is beyond my expectation, and then go down the river to save Mr. Qin?

Being swept away by such a big wave, not to mention that Mr. Qin is probably dead now, with his water skills, he doesn't know how to find his shadow in the year of the monkey.

"Do you want to know where Young Master Qin is?" Bai Wuyan suddenly walked up to the sacrificial altar, turned his back to face Long Kaihe and said loudly, "I'll tell everyone right now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the place directly facing the Longkai River was cut into two pieces as if someone had cut it open with magic weapons. With a dragon chant, a huge flood dragon jumped into the air.

"Who is it? How dare you make a mistake here!"

The giant dragon hovered in the air like a demonstration, continuously gathering dark clouds and lightning, as if the storm was coming in an instant.

However, after a while, the cloud suddenly disappeared and the sky was clear. I don't know what he discovered, but he suddenly transformed into an old man.

I saw the old man wearing a green robe, with a face like a crown of jade, and strands of green beard, hanging out of nowhere above the disconnected river, walking straight towards Bai Wuyan, not angry but majestic.

Everyone was dumbfounded, especially Zhai Lingxiu.

She tightly grasped Yao Jingli's sleeve, and hid behind Jiang Qianfeng.

Jiang Qianfeng gritted his teeth silently, too nervous to speak.

Only Bai Wuyan didn't change his face when he saw this scene. He was the first to say: "I have admired the Dragon God's name for a long time, why did the Dragon God accept those white iron statues?"

"Oh? Are you here for those statues? Those statues were indeed made by me, but they have sunk to the bottom of the river now. Although you just stimulated the energy of the world and caused a powerful energy fluctuation, which attracted me Here, I came to meet you, but I have my own reasons for accepting those statues, no matter what, I will not return them." Dragon God was neither angry nor annoyed, he stroked his beard and smiled.

Bai Wuyan saw that the dragon god who had turned into an old man had a tough attitude, so he had no choice but to retreat this time: "Let's not mention the statue, Dragon God, the son of Qin Mengzhang who was involved in the water just now was an accident. Return it to me quickly!"

"Mr. Qin Mengzhang?" Dragon God hesitated for a moment, and then said with a look of sudden realization, "Oh, oh, you said Mr. Mengzhang, he is doing well now, do you want to see him?"

As soon as Bai Wuyan heard that Qin Mengzhang was fine, he quickly followed the Dragon God's words and responded: "That's right, quickly let him come to see us!"

"If you want me to bring you to see him, you must do one thing for me."

Sure enough, Dragon God would not agree easily, which was within Bai Wuyan's expectation, so he then asked: "What's the matter? Tell me first, let's listen."

"This item from the Li Mansion in Jiujiang City is very useful to me. I wonder if you can get it for me?" Dragon God Xu wanted to see if the other party would agree, so he only gave a rough idea.

As soon as he heard that he was just looking for something, Bai Wuyan felt that it was okay, so he asked calmly: "What exactly is it, you can explain it all together, so there is no need to be tricky."

"It's an ancestral dagger, made of black gold, engraved with the words "serve the country with loyalty"," the Dragon God explained after describing, "There are so many people in this city, I can't show up, if you If you can help me get this dagger back, no matter what method I use, I will keep my promise."

"Okay, it's a deal." Bai Wuyan clasped his fists at the Dragon God, and readily agreed.

"If you get that dagger, come to this river again, and then I will show up to meet you." Before the Dragon God's voice fell, he returned to the river with a blue light, and the broken river water also disappeared. All of a sudden, calm was restored.

Seeing that the Dragon God had disappeared, Zhai Lingxiu followed the others to Bai Wuyan's side, and asked curiously, "Brother Bai, what did the Dragon God tell you just now?"

"He asked us to go to Li's house first and get a dagger engraved with the words "loyalty and serve the country," before he let us see Qin Mengzhang." Bai Wuyan replied concisely.

"Oh, it's something inherited from the Li family. I know, I know, my grandfather told me about their family before." Zhai Lingxiu said, and told everyone about the Li family.

It turns out that the ancestors of the Li family had three jinshi in one school, and the most powerful one was a Zengguan to the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

However, the governor still accepted bribes from foreigners during the anti-smoking campaign, which caused the soldiers in the camp to eat more opium. He was demoted and exiled to the frontier after a disastrous defeat in the encirclement and suppression of the peasant uprising. A sixth-rank official pension.

But even a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, what's more, now that Li Hongyu's elder brother is also an official in the capital, the power of the Li family has always been intertwined in Jiujiang City.

To say that the Li family is also strange, although they are greedy and tyrannical, but they have outstanding ability and integrity.

The ancestors of the Li family later believed in serving the country with loyalty, so they especially respected Yue Wumu. Even General Yue was enshrined in the ancestral temple.

The dagger that Bai Wuyan mentioned was obtained by accident when the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi was in exile. It is said that it is the relic of General Yue. It has always been the spiritual totem of the Li family and has been passed down from generation to generation.

So these things became more and more evil, and not even the people in Jiujiang had heard of them.

In the end, everyone said that this may be the fate that God ordered for Li Jiasi.

So it's not surprising that old man Zhai told Zhai Lingxiu a story.

It's just that this dagger is so important to the Li family, so how can I borrow it?
