Late Tang

Liu Qi once again dreamed of the Tianjie paved with bluestone slabs and hung with lanterns, and the endless squadrons of Salmonella soldiers suddenly appearing, as well as the heart-wrenching shot that pierced his thigh. .

In the dream, he was so helpless, completely surrounded by the boundless red tide.Everywhere you look, there are shining spear points everywhere.He still couldn't forget the faces of those soldiers, all of them made various ferocious expressions towards him in his dream.Especially Li Jing who kept laughing, Wang Zhong who pierced his thigh, and the general who kept a cold face and ordered the red-robed soldiers to suppress them mercilessly.

The three stood in front of him, the blood-red cloak on Li Jing's shoulders was fluttering in the wind, there was an evil smile on the corner of his mouth, and a sharp long sword in his hand.Wang Zhong was squatting on the ground, holding a whetstone and sharpening the sharp sword in his hand with a concentrated expression.Standing behind the two was Lin Wei, dressed in iron armor and holding a spear, staring at him like a wolf.

"Leave me alone," he told them.

"Why did we let you go?" Li Jing replied.

"You offended us, and now you have to pay the bloody price." Lin Wei said.

"Don't worry, when I sharpen the sword and sharpen it, you won't feel pain at all when the sword cuts on your neck. If my movements are a little more agile, you can even find yourself It will be a wonderful feeling if you can see your headless body in the sky." Wang Zhong smiled as he polished his sword.

"Please let me go." Liu Qi said fearfully, "As long as you let me go, I'll give you whatever you want, gold, silver, copper, silk, beauties, jewelry, whatever!"

"We don't care about that." Li Jing said, "Only blood can wash away the crimes you committed."

"A tooth for a tooth, blood for blood!" Lin Wei said coldly: "It was like this in the past, and it's still like this now!"

"Everything will end now!" Wang Zhong threw away the whetstone and held the sharp sword with both hands.With both hands raised high, the sword body was as pale as suet jade, and under the light of the fire, it seemed to be stained with a layer of blood.

"No," Liu Qi shouted in fear, "don't kill me." When the long sword swung down, he heard the screams of others. "Shichiro!".A sudden gust of wind blew across the blood-stained sky, which was as blue as the waves of the sea.

"Shichiro." The voice called again.

"Don't kill me." He said anxiously, "Don't kill me."

Another voice next to "Young Master" sounded.

Liu Qi moaned and opened his eyes, and the sunlight came through the window.

"Young master." There were a few vague figures standing beside the bed.

"Where am I?" Liu Qi found himself leaning over on the bed, his legs were clamped and fixed by wooden boards, and when he moved a little, he felt a burning pain in his thigh.

"This is the General's Mansion." A maid handed him a glass of water, "Young Master, drink the glass, you have been in a coma for three days and three nights."

Liu Qi leaned over to take a few sips, his lips were cracked, the water was as sweet as nectar.

"The general told me." Seeing him drink up the glass of water a few times, the maid said, "General, he wants to talk to you."

"Let's talk about it later." Liu Qi now felt like a little wolf with wounds all over his body, and he was still immersed in the terrible dream just now.In this embarrassment, he didn't want to see his uncle.

"Young Master." The maid persuaded, "The general told me that as soon as Young Master wakes up, he will take you to see him immediately."

Liu Qi cursed softly, he was a little afraid of this uncle.If possible, he really didn't want to see him.Especially after coming back from such a big loss this time, he was even more ashamed to see him.

The maid left for a while, and Wang Jin, the envoy of the Dengzhou Navy, walked in with a gloomy expression.

"You were in a coma for three days, and you almost died. Please tell me the details of what happened." Wang Jin said without doubt.

"It's Li Jing, the new general of Shamen Town." Liu Qi told him, "Feng Liu's men attacked him without knowing Li Jing's identity, and Feng Liu and I didn't know the truth, so we brought hundreds of people to teach him a lesson. They. As a result, Li Jing deliberately laid a trap and ambushed nearly [-] strong soldiers on the island. They directly attacked us, and hundreds of people were all arrested by him. On the island, according to him, everyone will be demoted to laborers, and he will build cities and walls for him.”

"Where is Feng Liu? Where are you now?"

"Feng Liu was also beaten with forty sticks, and he is still locked up on the island."

Wang Jin asked a few more questions, sat aside and became silent.In fact, when he saw his nephew brought back with injuries all over his body, Wang Jin had already sent someone to scout around for news.The fight between Feng Liu and Liu Qi and Li Jing was actually not a secret, and if you inquired about it casually, the outcome of the matter would be clear.First, when some of Feng Liu's garrison soldiers were cheating, they happened to bump into Li Jing, the new town general who had just arrived on Salmonella Island, and then they had a conflict and were beaten.After several garrison soldiers went back, they moved in more garrison soldiers, but in the end, one leg and one hand were broken.

Liu Qi originally followed Feng Liu to Sharang Island to play, but it just happened to happen that this happened. Feng Liu didn't even ask who the beating was, so he gathered hundreds of people to surround Li Jing.Unexpectedly, Li Jing had been prepared for a long time, and brought nearly [-] people to the island, and beat Feng Liu and the others to the ground with a few moves.Li Jing was very ruthless, he actually disregarded his and Feng Zhang's face, and severely punished those who besieged him in the street, even Feng Liu and Liu Qi were not spared.After the beating, everyone was taken to the fortress, saying that they were going to be demoted to labor.In the end, Li Jing gave him face and released Liu Qi alone.

What happened has been clarified, and there are not many mistakes in what Liu Qi said.To put it bluntly, Feng Liu and Liu Qi were really wrong at the beginning, but Li Jing ambushed hundreds of people nearby, and it could be seen that Li Jing had no good intentions at all.Moreover, Li Jing struck so ruthlessly that he beat Liu Qi so hard that his leg was almost broken. Even with good medicine and medicine, he would not be able to get off the ground for half a year.

Li Jing didn't hit Liu Qi's butt, but Wang Jin's old face.

Thinking that he had been in the Dengzhou navy for many years, even the governor of Dengzhou had to sell him some face.Li Jing is just a town general in Daxie Village, and his position is still under Feng Zhang. Even Feng Zhang is equal to him. How dare a small town general bully him like this? Dengzhou based?

"No matter what." Wang Jin said angrily: "I can't swallow this breath, Li Jing is actively provoking, this is calling me a war letter."

"General, I'm afraid Li Jing's ulterior motives are not to drink, and he probably came directly to the general." The family servant, Wang Fu, said, "Everyone knows that the Patriarch is now at odds with Jie Shuai, and this Li Jing is Cui Yunqing's disciple, Cui Yunqing has now joined Song Wei again, and is now Song Wei's Jiedu Sima. As soon as Li Jing arrived at Salmon Island, he hastily made such a ruthless attack. I am afraid that he alone does not have the guts. It is estimated that Li Jing is just a pawn in this matter, and Song Wei and Cui Yunqing are the ones who really operate. Their purpose is to go straight to the general."

Wang Jin nodded. The battle in Qingzhou was getting more and more serious. Before Song Wei just arrived, he had been keeping a low profile and there was no movement. The Wang family and Song Wei were still getting along peacefully.But now that Song Wei has the help of the Cui family, he can't stand still and fight for power everywhere.Not only is Qingzhou fighting fiercely, but even the five states below and the soldiers and horses of various ministries have become the targets of the two sides' rivalry.The position of the governor of Dengzhou has been controlled by Song Wei, and Dengzhou Prison Envoy, Longshan Camp, Dongmou Shouzhuo, Chishan Town and other troops have also fallen to Song Wei, and now Dengzhou is still fighting against Song Wei That is to say, the Dengzhou Navy under his control, and the Daxie Village soldiers and horses under the control of the Feng family who have always been friends with the Wang family.It is believable that Song Wei took Li Jing as his pawn and wanted to deal with them.

"What are we going to do?"

"Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover. In the past few decades, no matter who has been the Jiedu envoy, my Wang family has always controlled the Qingzhou Yajun. My Wang family is the real controller of Ziqing Town. He Song Wei is an outsider. Even if he hooks up with the Cui family, it will be useless." Wang Jin gritted his teeth, "Since he wants to fight, then we will fight. We have been operating this Dengzhou sea for more than ten years, so how could it be Li? Jing, a little pawn, can turn the world over."

The Wang family has always been only the fourth noble family in Ziqing, but they have been able to become the family that has been secretly controlling Ziqing town, relying on their own abilities.In addition to these forces on the surface, the Wang family has many other strengths that are unknown to outsiders.

It seems that this time it is time to use those forces in the dark. Raising soldiers for a thousand days is used for a while. When these forces were formed, they were just for use when they were in critical condition.

"Wang Fu, grind the ink for me, I want to write a letter."

Picking up the pen, Wang Jin quickly wrote down a secret letter.The letter is only a few hundred words long, and secret words are used throughout the letter. Many key points are replaced by secret words. At a glance, the original meaning cannot be read at all.This kind of letter can only be interpreted by the agreed person who knows the secret words.Put the wax box on the candle to melt and drip on the envelope, Wang Jin stamped his personal seal.

"Wang Fu, take this letter to Duli Town, Liaodong immediately, and hand it to our old friend in person. Remember, you must hand the letter to your old friend with your own hands, and never give it to anyone else. ,Understand?"

"General, don't worry, I will deliver the letter myself." Wang Fu said, "I guarantee it with my life."

"In case something happens..."

"Once there is an accident, the subordinates will bear it all, and will never let the matter be implicated in the general."

"Wang Fu, you are fine. When you come back, the thousand-acre farm in Huang County will be yours."
