The north wind became more and more violent, rolling up the yellow and rotten fallen leaves on the ground and flying in the forest. The cold howls of dead branches and leaves above the head became louder and louder, and the thick trees were blown to sway, forming waves of waves on the dense forest.

Li Ming suddenly felt a little cold. This was the first time he had this feeling since winter began. It did not snow often in the south, and it was even less freezing. So compared to where Li Ming lived before, it could not be considered cold, but now, Li Ming really feels cold.

Not only him, but even Ma Lin and the remaining guards were trembling. This abnormal situation immediately attracted Li Ming's attention. He looked opposite him and saw the master looking around uneasy. It seemed that all this was not Li Ming's illusion.

"Grandmaster, our prince wants to invite you to come with us. I hope you don't leave here at least." Perhaps because of the sudden change in temperature, the master who had not said a word began to urge impatiently.

Li Ming couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It seemed that the other party still wanted to make use of him, but was the prince he mentioned Li Jiao? Judging from the current situation, his possibility is the greatest.

"Who is your prince? Is this how he hired someone?" Li said angrily: "You might as well just say that your prince wants to capture me. Who is he? Is it Li Jiao?"

The man smiled and replied mysteriously: "I can't tell you this for the time being, you will know it when you see it. However, you don't seem to have the right to put forward any conditions now, right? If you cooperate well, I will consider spareing the lives of your subordinates. Otherwise, it would be more convenient for me to take you alone."

Li Ming was shocked and subconsciously leaned backwards. After the life-and-death battle just now, Li Ming realized what it means to share life and death. At the same time, his feelings for Malin and these guards have improved a lot, so when he heard that person's threat, he couldn't help but worry.

"Ah Yeh", the cold hatched behind Li Ming, who was seriously injured, could not bear the colder and colder temperature, and could not help but sneeze. This sound scared the people on both sides who were nervously guarding each other, and several archers couldn't help but tremble, and the sharp arrows in their hands almost shot out. At this time, due to the sudden cooling, a faint mist was covered in the air, gradually covering everyone in the middle.

Suddenly, a slight sound of breaking through the air sounded in the woods, and then a slight sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. The sound was a little far from where Li Ming and the others were, so that people here could not see clearly the situation there through the mist.

The man seemed to feel something was wrong. He nervously looked at the place where the sound was made, and then shouted: "You should take a look at them for me. If they have any abnormal movements, they will kill me. I will go there and take a look. No one is allowed to act rashly without my orders." After that, he rose up and rushed over to the other side.

Li Ming could no longer hold on at this time. He sat on the ground, his whole body was so exhausted that he no longer wanted to move. At the same time, he also smelled a scent similar to ether.

Then, the long sword hands that were surveillance around him began to sit on the ground one after another. Some people could not even hold the long sword in their hands, and they dropped weapons all over the ground.

Li Ming was suddenly shocked and was about to stand up as soon as he supported his hands, but suddenly he felt weak and drowsy. Looking at the guards next to him, several of them were even unconscious.

Ecstasy? A familiar word jumped into Li Ming's mind. Did this thing that can only be seen in martial arts novels make him meet today? Li Ming's current medical skills are extraordinary and his understanding of Chinese herbal medicine is very good, but he has never discovered anything that can make people fall into a coma without realizing it. However, today he encountered it. Smelling this smell is really very similar to ether, but in this era, who can make this anesthetic? In doubt, he couldn't help but fall into a coma.

When Li Ming woke up, he found that he was lying on the haystack of a broken temple. The sun was projecting on his face through the windowless lattice. Next to it, a bonfire was burning lightly and darkly, emitting warm flames. Looking up, there were traces of repairs on the broken tiles on the temple roof. When he looked around, he always felt that this place was so familiar. Suddenly, he woke up. Isn’t this the Guanyin Temple outside the city he had been to? It was here that he had murderous intentions for the first time and killed Zhao Wei and others here. But how could he be here? For a moment, he really couldn’t react.

"You're finally awake, have a drink of water." A man's voice rang beside him, and at the same time, a broken porcelain bowl containing hot water was handed to him.

"Are you Ximen Hu?" Li Ming, who had barely turned his head, couldn't help but scream when he looked at the man. Isn't the person in front of him the one Ximen Hu he met in the inn in Linbin City? At that time, he wanted to make friends with him deliberately, but was angry by his indifference. Unexpectedly, he would see him at first sight.

Seeing Li Ming's surprised look, Ximen Hu smiled unconsciously, stretched out one hand to hold Li Ming's neck and lifted his head, handed the broken porcelain bowl in his other hand to his mouth, and said, "Don't talk about anything else. You have been sleeping all night. You should drink some hot water. Come on, if you have any questions, you will talk about it after drinking the water."

After hearing Ximen Hu's words, Li Ming felt that he was dry and he couldn't help but drink the bowl of water in his mouth in one breath. Then, he nodded gratefully to Ximen Hu and asked, "Why am I here? You saved me?"

Ximen Hu smiled without any concealment and said, "That's right, I saved you. Hehe, you are lucky. You happened to encounter me passing by. So I saved you."

Li Ming couldn't help but say curiously: "I really didn't expect that Brother Ximen is a master who can't hide it. The man who attacked me had very high martial arts skills. You can actually rescue me from him. Brother Ximen must be very famous in the world."

Ximen Hu smiled heartily and said, "Brother Li, you are so proud of me. How can I be ranked in the world in this martial arts? The reason I can save you this time is because I just carry a drug on my body. Okay, I will tell you briefly so that you won't be worried. At that time, I was traveling outside the city with my apprentice. When I passed by the woods, I saw that your situation was very critical, and the person standing next to you was obviously very skilled in martial arts. I was definitely not an opponent in the face of challenge. So I asked the little apprentice to set up a trap on the other side and attract the master. I took the opportunity to release the drug and took you all over, and then moved you all out one by one. As for that master, he also fell into my trap, and I am afraid he is still unconscious now."

Hearing this, Li Ming couldn't help but have some doubts. He could trap the master with his trap alone? How could this be? What is the most amazing thing? Moreover, when the incident happened, there was a layer of fog due to the drop in the temperature. What was going on? However, he saved himself after all. Asking too many questions at this time would make him think. It would be better to wait until they get familiar with each other before asking more questions. However, those people should always be caught. Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked, "Then what about those people? What about that master? Did he catch him?" This matter is very important. If you understand who was the commander, you may not be at peace during this period.

"It's not that easy." Ximen Hu smiled bitterly, "It took me a lot of effort to move each of you to a safe place, and then give each of you all the medicine. If this kind of drug is not taken in time, it will be harmful to your body. So, I spent a lot of time at this point. Then, I went to find the little disciple again, but just happened to meet him when I was about to enter the woods. At that time, our thoughts were the same as you, and we all wanted to catch a few living things so that you could interrogate when you wake up. However, when we arrived at the scene again, we found that the people who were fascinated were gone! Moreover, the master trapped in my trap was gone. At that time, I was afraid that they would have ambushed, so I didn't dare to stay there for more." Speaking of this, he sighed regretfully.

"So, what about my subordinates? They should be here too." Through this battle, Li Ming began to care about his subordinates. Now that he has woken up, they should be awake too.

Ximen Hu hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't worry, their martial arts may be a little different from yours, so they will have to wait a while before they wake up. Isn't that? They are all lying there." At this point, he helped Li Ming's head up and pointed to the haystack behind the door for him to see.

Seeing that Ma Lin and the others were all lying safely on the straw pavement, and the injured people had been bandaged, Li Ming then put down his head with confidence, looked at Ximen Hu and smiled: "I am grateful for my kindness. Brother Ximen will be useful to me in the future. Even if you go to Biquan Island to find me, Biquan Island will always be open to you and your apprentice."

"Li Ming?" Ximen Hu was obviously startled: "You said your name is Li Ming? Biquan Island? You are the very famous doctor Li Ming? Oh my God, didn't you tell me that your name is Li Chaoyang? Did you lie to me at the beginning?" At this point, a little unhappiness appeared on Ximen Hu's face.

Li Ming hurriedly sat up and explained to Ximen Hu: "Brother Ximen, don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to lie to you at the time. My name is Li Ming, and my courtesy name is Chaoyang, so I'm not lying to you." When he said this, Li Ming felt a little blushed.

"So that's the case, that's fine." Ximen Hu was not really angry. Maybe he was just unhappy with Li Ming's lying, but after hearing Li Ming's explanation, he finally felt relieved: "I was careless so I didn't ask clearly at that time. In this way, I was a big man, a doctor god whom the whole world admired? Hahaha, it was so surprising. I have immeasurable merits." Joy filled his face, making his face look red.

Li Ming looked at Ximen Hu in front of him with emotion, and couldn't help but blush at his previous inadvertent intentions. If it weren't for him, he would have been lying in the wilderness at this moment, and he was talking about winning the world. Moreover, he was too careless for a while. First, Li Jiao's sneak attack, and then this time, he almost killed his own life every time. But after returning to the island, due to his great martial arts and Lin Lingfeng didn't like it, he kept putting his pistol in the car without wearing it, which almost made him go to the gates of hell. It seems that this life-saving straw cannot be lost in the future.

It was almost noon that Ma Lin and the others woke up one after another. After briefly telling the story, several people bowed a few times in the direction of the woods to comfort the spirits of the dead brothers in heaven. Then, with the inspiration and invitation of Li Ming, Ximen Hu and his apprentice Liu Guang followed Li Ming and others to the dock and sailed to the island as they came.

There were more than twenty people when they came, but when they returned, there were only a few people left. This sudden change made Li Ming feel a little depressed. Obviously, the master of this matter was Li Jiao the biggest suspect. Only he liked to do this, and only he had such strong strength. He had chased him several times before, and not long ago, he sent someone to attack Biquan Island. All these hatreds made Li Ming want to fly to Fenshui Island to capture Li Jiao alive and execute him in front of the graves of the dead brothers. However, he knew that all this was just thinking about it. If he extinguished Li Jiao for a while, he would completely lose the initiative in the future. Therefore, he could only endure the plan for the present.

The ship was near the dock, and the patrol soldiers and guards were shocked to see them like this, so that they could send them to the Zhulin Pavilion so that they could send people to inform the Saint Hand King quickly.

After sitting down and taking a sip of tea, Li Ming told Ma Lin and the others to go down and rest for a while and deal with the injuries. Then he chatted with Ximen Hu about the customs of his hometown in the Zhulin Pavilion, as if something happened yesterday had never happened to Li Ming, and at this time he had completely calmed down.

With a "bang", the Saint Wang and Lin Long hurriedly pushed open the gate of the Zhulin Pavilion and rushed in. When they saw Li Ming sitting there safely and laughing, they breathed a long sigh.

After instructing the guards outside the door to take Ximen Hu's master and apprentice to the guest room, Li Ming told them the whole story of the past two days. Of course, the key point was how he took over Jiangzhou's power. Regarding the attack outside the city, he just wrote a few words lightly. Since the matter has been like this, don't worry them.

Even so, the Saint Hand King and Lin Long changed their faces. The Saint Hand King was a little better. In order to take into account Li Ming's face, Lin Long couldn't do it. She was angry and anxious in her heart. She scolded Li Ming without saying anything. After that, she approached him with heartache and carefully checked whether there were any scars on his body.

After finally dealing with Lin Long, Li Ming had time to say something serious: "After these two incidents, our guards have lost nearly 50%. This loss is too great. These people are our elders, our backbone in the future, and are also loyal to us. They were the first to follow me to do things, and they are the most familiar with our views and methods. Therefore, I decided to disband the guard camp and disperse the remaining fifty people into our management organization, so that they can familiarize themselves with the management work of these leaders as soon as possible. When we expand in the future, they will be our reserve force. Alas, I really can't bear to see them lose any more."

"Long'er, when I returned to the island, I promised you to give the soldiers you trained to you to command, but now the battle is full of clouds and the world is about to be in chaos. I also need those of you urgently, so I still hope you can hand over the people to me." Looking at Lin Long, Li Ming discussed patiently.

Lin Long laughed and said, "Brother is really, it seems like I won't give you it's necessary to be so careful? These soldiers were trained specifically for you to replenish the strength of the island. Now you need it, just take it. But I still suggest that the guard camp should not be disbanded for the time being. Although the people I trained are good at fighting, they are not competent for the guards' jobs. Someone must take them for a while. Let's do this, leave half of them as their instructors first, and the other half to various departments first. What do you think?"

Li Ming couldn't help but smile and said, "Of course I have no objection, but I just don't know how the people you trained. By the way, have those surrendered soldiers settled? Are there any trouble?"

The Saint King hurriedly reported: "I was about to tell you about this matter. Yesterday, the acceptance of the surrendered soldiers was completed, with a total of more than 9,000 people. Under Yang Dian's advice, these people agreed to be loyal to us. After all, they were all elite soldiers of the imperial court. After all, they chose you after hearing about your appointment. After all, supporting Chengwang may commit a crime of traitor, and no one dared to be careless. With Yang Dian's help, we captured 60 Chengwang's confidants from those surrendered soldiers. Chen Hao is currently interrogating. In addition, Wang Wen has rushed to various places in Jiangzhou to accept local garrisons."

"My warrant" Li Ming couldn't help but be stunned: "When did I write a warrant? Besides, even if I wrote a warrant, Wang Wen did not accept the local military power so easily. Without the emperor's tiger talisman, no one has the right to transfer the Da Jun to a hundred miles away. Wang Wen has been a general for a day or two. Why did he even neglect this? He was so anxious that he had to wait for me to come back to discuss the specific methods before taking action." Hearing this news, Li Ming became even more angry, but the army did not accept it. They were detained by those local troops first. If this is the case, his plan would be messed up, so Li Ming couldn't help but become anxious.
