When Hunjun begins to make elixirs

Chapter 21 My Showdown
The Shenji Guards dismounted one after another, and the surrounding generals came up, and several people held down the leader.

"You can't catch me like this!"

Zhu Wu walked over while rubbing his injured elbow joint, picked up a piece of wood scattered from the pergola on the ground, took a soldier's knife, whittled the wood into two wooden thorns, and pierced the leader's pupil-less eyes.

"Ah!" The leader let out a heart-rending cry, and the blue lines receded and returned to human form.

"Huh? Is this still a human being?" Li Shun thought it was a monster turned into a resting insect. He didn't want to eat it for a moment and had a mental disorder.If the leader knew that Li Shun just wanted to make him a barbecue, I wonder if he would thank Zhu Wu for helping him avoid the disaster.

Before Zhu Wu stopped, he found a medium-sized stone and stuffed it into his mouth. He tore off a strip of cloth from his clothes and strangled his mouth: "Now you just tie it up with a rope. Then Zhu Wu saluted Li Shun solemnly: "Thank you for saving me. Which yamen are you from?"

Li Shun said nothing, and the Shenji Guard beside him took out his waist card.

Zhu Wu nodded: "It turns out that he is the brother of Shen Jiwei. I am very grateful." His eyes did not dare to stay on Li Shun anymore.Are you kidding me?Aren't these divine machine guards positioned to protect this man in white?
The person who has the qualifications to make the Divine Machine Guard so nervous, even though he is so powerful, but still protected by someone, will only be a big shot in the palace, and is not even qualified to supervise the Divine Machine Manufacturing Office.Of course, he didn't think about the emperor, it was too magical.

Although both the Jinwu Guard and the Shenji Guard were under the supervision of the Inner Court Master, in terms of closeness and mystery, the Shenji Guard was definitely ahead of the Jinwu Guard.There are too many secrets about the working methods of the Shenji Manufacturing Office, the strange people and the mysterious items in the warehouse.

Li Shun pointed at the monsters tied into rice dumplings on the ground: "How can one person kill you to only this much?" Only then did he realize that the corpses were all soldiers and Jinwu guards.

The surviving soldiers were filled with indignation after hearing this. What do you mean by being alone?That's a monster, okay?He has the ability...wait, he is indeed qualified to say such things, and his anger turned into shame.

When Zhu Wu heard the tone of his voice, he became more sure of his guess and asked for punishment: "Please punish me. I was so careless, thinking that no one would dare to rob the prisoner when we arrived in the capital, and I did not prepare iron ropes, bows and crossbows, which led to heavy casualties."

"The matter has come to this, and there is no point in punishing anyone. I have also seen your loyalty and courage. The injured will be treated for free, and each will be rewarded with 20 taels of silver. The person who died will be given double pension and will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver. .”

Li Shun pointed at Zhu Wu and said: "You are responsible for presiding over the distribution, and you are not allowed to be greedy. By the way, what is your name? What is your current position?"

Zhu Wu secretly thought that he was right in his bet. Only the Directors of Ceremonies could issue such an order: "My subordinate Zhu Wu is now the Jinwu Guard to test hundreds of households."

Li Shun clicked his tongue twice, shook his head and said: "Such a loyal and brave person is actually trying to test a hundred households. It's too small, and the pattern is too small. From today on, you are the envoy of Jinwu Guard Town!"

Zhu Wu was a little confused again, Zhen Fushi?How can we just promise this without the order of our ancestors?

"My lord, are you kidding me?"

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

Zhu Wu still wanted to confirm, but he was interrupted by the sound of footsteps.

Yan Dahu came and was shocked when he saw the tragic scene. What happened?So tragic?When he saw the Shenji Guards again, he dismounted and asked, "Brother, what's going on?" He thought to himself, couldn't it be that the Shenji Guards and the Jinwu Guards were fighting over each other?

The divine machine guard just looked at him coldly and did not answer.

Yan Dahu felt that he was bored, so he looked into the crowd. This was an incredible sight. When he saw the young man in white at close range, he could basically confirm that he was the emperor.

Although he is taller, stronger, and more handsome, his tall and straight posture that stands out from the crowd, and his majestic red and phoenix eyes, who else but the emperor is worthy of such a heavenly appearance?

"emperor!"

Yan Dahu shouted and immediately fell to his knees: "Yan Dahu, the official of the Qianhu Defense Department in the city, is here to see the emperor! Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!"

This shout numbed the ears of everyone present, and also shocked and enlightened their hearts.Only then did Zhu Wu realize, who could have such a loud tone?It turns out to be the emperor!
Zhu Wu also followed suit and saluted: "I am here to see you, Your Majesty!"

The city defense soldiers and escorting soldiers who were present saw the two adults kneeling and had no doubts. They all knelt down and saluted: "Long live my emperor!"

As the chants of "Long Live" rang out, the sounds of iron chains clashing in the prison car also came and went, but they were drowned out by the shouts of "Long Live".

After calling three times, Li Shun smiled bitterly and shook his head. He originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but his disguise was taken off by a fool. Come on, stop pretending. I am the Nine-Five Supreme, and I have shown my cards.

"Get up, most of them are injured so don't salute."

Yan Dahu was about to get up, but when he saw that Zhu Wu didn't get up, he knelt down again.If these two people refuse to get up, how dare the others get up?The scene was very embarrassing.

Li Shun asked Zhu Wu: "What? You still want me to help you up?" Zhu Wu lowered his head even lower: "I am ignorant and ignorant of the dragon's appearance. I actually questioned the emperor's appointment and asked the emperor to punish me!"

Li Shun smiled and helped him up personally: "It will not be a crime for those who don't know. From today on, you will be the envoy of Jinwu Weinan Town."

Zhu Wu was moved to tears by the emperor's actions: "How can I be so virtuous and capable..."

Li Shun immediately stopped his hypocritical and polite words: "Stop talking, I will regret it if you say it again."

Zhu Wu immediately shut up. This emperor doesn't play by the rules!Originally, he was kidnapped and suffered heavy casualties, so he was going to be punished for a serious crime, but he was a blessing in disguise and was promoted several levels in a row.He couldn't help but look at Zhu Da's body in a fighting posture. It must be his elder brother who was protecting him.

If he had complained before because support came too slowly, now he was just grateful.This is the emperor who spared no expense and risk to save them personally. Who can complain!
Li Shun took off the folding fan from his waist and pointed at Yan Dahu: "Come here!"

Yan Dahu, who had just been slandering Zhu Wu for his many plays, immediately put on a flattering smile when he saw the emperor calling him, bowed his tall body, and trotted forward: "Your Majesty, what do you want me to do?"

"How do you know me?"

"Your Majesty, my father is Yan Laohu, the former commander of the Jinwu Guards. I was lucky enough to see your face back then."

Li Shun thought of Yan Laohu. In the memory of his predecessor, he was one of the few loyal ministers. Without his protection, Li Shun would not have been able to successfully succeed to the throne. But how could his son be so virtuous?

Li Shun nodded, turned around and asked Zhu Wu: "Is this the only thief?"

Zhu Wu told the truth: "There was also an old farmer selling vegetables, but judging from the situation at the time, he should have been passing by. After the fight, he ran away."

Li Shun thought for a while: "Where did you run to?"

Zhu Wu pointed to the northeast: "Behind that forest."

Yan Dahu frowned: "Guojiacun! Recently there are rumors in the city that there are religious bandits there!"

Before Yan Dahu finished speaking, the leader on the ground trembled, as if he was very scared.

Several people saw this expression in their eyes, and Yan Dahu immediately expressed his loyalty: "I am willing to lead troops to capture the rebels!" The meat for the support was not eaten, so the capture of the old farmer should not be missed.

Li Shun nodded in agreement, originally he wanted the city defense to go with him.

Zhu Wu also refused to leave: "I remember the appearance of the old farmer, and I am willing to follow him."

Seeing that the emperor wanted to continue chasing, those divine machine guards tried to dissuade him: "Your Majesty, you must not put yourself in danger again!"

Li Shun glanced at them sideways: "Do you think I will be in danger?"

The Shenji Guards were silent. Based on the force shown by the Emperor just now, they might not be able to defeat him together.

Zhu Wudao: "The worries of the Shenji Guards are not unreasonable. Your Majesty, our previous judgment was wrong. The Shenmu Cult has more than six supernatural leaders. There is one here, and I don't know how many more there are."

Li Shundao: "Then I'm going to go even more. Are you their opponent?"

The crowd was speechless.

Zhu Wu looked at the soldiers defending the city, all armed with crossbows and spears.

Yan Dahu chuckled: "The Jinwu guard you sent back brought these with me, but thick and long iron chains are hard to find. I found some trip wires, but they have the same effect."

Li Shun patted Yan Dahu on the shoulder with admiration: "Everything is ready. The city defense will allocate half of its troops to escort the prison car back to the city. The others, together with the Shenji Guards, will follow me to capture the rebels!"
