I can't live forever, so I have to reincarnate infinitely

Chapter 9 Green Bamboo Fort

Women in Fengyue place are well-informed and are best at observing words and expressions.

And in the brothel, fighting should not be too common.

Although the new uncle seemed to be a very powerful character, they could all tell that he had no murderous intent.

Therefore, the prostitutes who served those Jianghu people before came over to serve Du Youqian with a coquettish smile.

Someone poured wine for him, peeled grapes with slender fingers and delivered them to his mouth, and someone stood behind and gently squeezed his shoulders.

Du Youqian didn't refuse, but when a woman wanted to give him wine with her pink lips and tongue, he just pushed it away lightly.

Nothing but disgust.

After living to the third life, Du Youqian no longer has any desire for beauties.

A purely physical impulse can be suppressed with a strong spirit.

Even Long Ruzhen, who is known as the "No. [-] Beauty in the Southeastern Martial Arts", seemed troublesome to him at first, and had no intention of living in the house at all.

It was only later that Long Ru was really affectionate, which made him feel hard to live up to, so he accepted the other party.

Now even if the most beautiful woman in the world stood in front of Du Youqian and tried her best to seduce her, Du Youqian would at most have a little physiological impulse due to instinct.

But she will never be tempted, and she will never affect her own path for a beauty.

In Du Youqian's eyes, these prostitutes who provided him with meticulous service were nothing more than pink skeletons.

While enjoying their services, Du Youqian listened to these people from the rivers and lakes talk about each other.

Slowly, the puzzle formed in his mind.

He was even aware of the shadows behind the Green Bamboo Fort that these people couldn't see or imagine.

"Okay." After repeatedly asking for some details, Du Youqian stood up, "You haven't seen me tonight."

"Yes! We haven't met our seniors before." Toutuo, Scholar, Dao Scar Middle-aged, etc. responded immediately as if they had been pardoned.

Du Youqian smiled, "You won't remember."

~
The scholar buried his head and fell asleep.

Toutuo put his arm around a woman.

The middle-aged man with the scar smacked his lips, reminiscing about the taste of the wine he just drank.

"Where did you just say?"

"Green Bamboo Castle... Green Bamboo Castle..." the scholar said vaguely.

The scholar's companion said: "Green Bamboo Fort offers a reward, and if you kill the jade-faced Rakshasa, you can get three magical weapons..."

"There are also 10 Xiaohuan Pills, [-] taels of gold, and you can choose any five Qingzhu Castle secrets." Toutuo pushed the woman in his arms away, and said impatiently, "You can also marry the daughter of the owner of Qingzhu Castle. Tell me something I don't know!"

"Oh, you heard about it too?" The scholar's companion was embarrassed, thinking that few people knew the latest news he had.

The middle-aged man with the scar said mysteriously: "The jade-faced Rakshasa disappeared for 18 years. Do you know where she went and who was she with during these 18 years?"

"With whom?" Toutuo stretched out his ears and leaned forward.

The middle-aged man with the scar frowned, just when he was about to say the name, an alarm bell rang in his heart.

It seems that if you say that name, disaster will come immediately.

He bowed his head and took a sip of the muffled wine, then changed his words, "I don't know either."

Toutuo touched his bald head, "I suddenly realized that I actually don't want to know at all."

The middle-aged knife scar frowned for a long time, and suddenly said: "Do you have a strange feeling?"

"What strange feeling?"

The middle-aged Dao Scar said: "I seem to have forgotten something, but I can't remember what I forgot."

Toutuo laughed: "If you can remember it, then you have not forgotten it."

The scholar lay on the table and said in a daze, "It's rare to be confused, it's rare to be confused..."

The middle-aged man with the scar thought about it, and smiled: "That's true. Forget it, drink, drink!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Green Bamboo Fort, the first of the three northern forts in Wu Kingdom.

To the south of Wo Niu Mountain and to the north of Hejiang River, there are dozens of large and small Wubao scattered all over the place.

They are built on the basis of rivers and lakes,

It was a product of the period when Qi State launched a war of annihilation against Wu State.

At that time, large tracts of land in the state of Wu were lost, the city fell, and almost the entire north fell under the control of the state of Qi.

The reason why it is said "almost" is because there are some martial arts tycoons who have spent all their wealth to build strong fortresses.

Organize production in Wubao and be self-sufficient.

Then recruit refugees, give food, and train them.

As a basic farming and warfare unit, Wubao was firmly nailed to the central and northern parts of Wu State like a nail, and resisted tenaciously.

It can be said that without these Wubao, Du Youqian would have spent at least 20 years longer if he wanted to regain the entire territory of Wu.

These docks played a positive role in the process of Wu's defense against the war of aggression.

But when Qi State was expelled and Wu State began to cultivate and thrive, these Wubao became malignant tumors.

Because Du Youqian gave Wubao too many privileges in order to unite all forces against Qi.

Most of the castle owners of Wubao also have the status of nobles and are allowed to participate in politics.

However, the veteran nobles don't take them to play at all.

The castle owners are the supreme emperors in their own docks.

When he arrived at the court, he was regarded as a country rich man, which made people laugh.

The castle masters are on fire.

You don't take us to play, we play by ourselves, it's okay.

So after the war, they concealed their population and resisted paying taxes; they made their own laws within the scope of Wubao, just like small feudal kingdoms.

The imperial power could not touch Wubao at all.

These docks were one of the biggest threats to the crumbling imperial power in the early post-war period.

Even Du Youqian, the powerful official at the time, couldn't completely reverse this point.

In the end, he adopted the strategy of dividing and disintegrating, disintegrating the spontaneous alliance of the castle masters.

Through marriage and other means, support several powerful Wubao and attack those weak Wubao.

The owners of those powerful castles became the shining rookies in the political arena of the Wu state and entered the center of power.

Most of the weaker Wubao were dismantled, convicted, and even wiped out by the Jianghu forces supported by the Wu court.

Therefore, when it comes to Green Bamboo Fort, one must not think that it is the Wubao of a local tyrant in the countryside.

In fact, the lineage of the castle owner of Qingzhu Castle has been a high-ranking official in the center of the Wu Kingdom court for generations.

There are countless high officials and nobles who have made good friends in the court.

They have already compiled a huge network of relationships, and they are a force that cannot be ignored in Wu.

It is said that Green Bamboo Fort even enlisted a congenital master as guest qing.

You know, looking at the entire Wu Kingdom, the number of innate masters will never exceed five fingers.

Of course, for ordinary people, Green Bamboo Fort is an irresistible "monster".

Even members of the royal family would not dare to provoke Green Bamboo Castle.

But to the Xiantian Grandmaster, that was nothing more than "I really can't afford to mess with you, but don't mess with me either".

Otherwise, if you piss me off, today I will assassinate your son-in-law, and tomorrow I will kill your cousin.

In just a few years, the direct descendants of Qingzhu Castle will be wiped out.

Although the Green Bamboo Fort has enlisted the Xiantian Grandmaster Ke Qing, but how noble is the Xiantian Grandmaster?

But I won't really go through life and death for you.

In front of masters of the same level, the innate master would only put on a show, hello, hello, hello everyone.

Therefore, Green Bamboo Fort knew that behind Long Ruzhen and Liao Leizhong was his own innate master, so why did he dare to do such a great job?
Standing on the top of Xianzhu Mountain, looking at the Green Bamboo Fort ten miles away, Du Youqian's imagination was full of imagination.

According to the information he has collected recently, the owner of the Green Bamboo Castle is not arrogant and ignorant.

He dared to cut off one of Liao Leizhong's arms and tied it to the wall of the dock to show off his power; he also publicly offered a reward to Long Ruzhen.

This is to offend himself, the innate master, to the death.

If the owner of Green Bamboo Castle hadn't suddenly gone mad, there must be a higher level of power standing behind him.
