"Let me just say, you have a bad temper." Zhang Xing said disapprovingly. "You are so timid in Dongdu, but you are so irritable here in Wu'an... They say that a man can bend and stretch, but you have gone too far.

, I stretched too far.”

"Maybe so." Li Ding looked at Nangong Lake and sighed, unable to hide his frustration. "Anyway, it seems that he has had a chance in the past few years, but he has not achieved much results over and over again. He is really irritable."

"It's just that I keep running into walls." Zhang Xing said thoughtfully when he saw this. "I feel that I have a unique skill and can be invincible in the military. With this ability, I can turn clouds and rains, massacre cities and destroy countries with ease. As a result, in troubled times, politics, economy, and organization

, fortune, cultivation, diplomacy, even culture, regional relations, all must be managed, at least analyzed and judged, and although military is the most important thing, it is only one thing... Just as if we had known that the world would be general

Chaos, not caring about anything, just sharpening a knife early, but even if it is really chaotic, you can't really draw a knife when you think of it."

Li Ding did not refute, but just turned to look at the other person. Just like when he first met in the inn, this man had an ordinary appearance. He could only be regarded as having regular facial features, but his complexion was slightly paler and he was tall, but he was also a typical Beijing man.

He was born as a vanguard.

After looking at it for a long time, he asked in response: "If that's the case, what about you? How on earth do you, a vanguard of the North, know so much? Is it true that it's just like the rumors? Did Black Emperor choose you?"

"First of all, I don't know much, I just have a strong balance in my mind. When making judgments, it is more important to know what is more important, but I am still walking on thin ice. Secondly, I guess there are some choices, but it has nothing to do with what I know. It is mainly about Qi practice.

...But you have also seen it." Zhang Xing was rarely honest. "Moreover, cultivation is my biggest shortcoming."

"Your cultivation is not weak."

"That's not what I mean. It means that my understanding of cultivation and how the true energy of heaven and earth affects the entire world, especially the operation of society... So I am very afraid of the great master, but also inexplicably confident.

The same is true for the Supreme, the True Dragon, and the Immortal." Zhang Xing sighed. "I always feel that I am afraid that I will suffer a big loss in such things. Including the British Duke, my fear of him is not that he took the Jin first.

Di is a northern roof, so he can start at a leisurely pace. It's not that he is good at playing chess, but I always worry that he is actually a great master and will just come to the top of the red mountain without being reasonable."

Li Ding was silent for a while and answered seriously: "The Grand Master is like a red mountain pressing down on the top. It's not unreasonable, but it's just the way it is. The Red Mountain is nothing more than the corpse of a real dragon... After the Grand Master erected the pagoda and before he was enthroned,

Climbing mountains and slaying dragons is just an ordinary thing, isn't it the same for the last three of the four emperors? Moreover, you said that I have retracted too much and stretched too far. Is it possible that you are used to doing things too unscrupulously?

"

"It's possible, but this is the most frightening part." Zhang Xing nodded immediately. "Because I am really afraid that I will lose my ability to judge on this matter."

Li Ding hesitated for a moment, then suddenly dropped the topic and continued to ask: "What about the "Six Tao"? Where is that wild temple?"

"They all have explanations." Zhang Xing was still magnanimous. "But I don't admit how much convenience I got from it. Among them, "Six Tao" is the clear proof. If I don't rewrite it myself, I will ask you to explain it.

If you try it once in the military, how can it be effective? You should also understand."

Li Ding nodded, with an inexplicable expression on his face.

"On the other hand, I'm actually more looking forward to the "Yi Jin Jing"." Zhang Xingyi said. "After this autumn, I plan to gather all the Qijing training in the area to give them a use and assist. I hope it can

It's just like what you said, so that the practice of Qijing no longer depends on luck and qualifications. Of course, I also need to take the opportunity to make statistics and training. Xu Shiying has been helping me with one thing, that is, Qijing masters and military

The allocation ratio of chief officers, as well as the ratio of practitioners and reserve officers in my direct camp and other troops. I will let you take a look at it when the time comes, make adjustments, and finally write it into the "Six Tips" for me."

"This is a must for a true true energy formation. From now on, if we really hope to fight the weak against the strong when we fall behind in the level of cultivation, we cannot expect a group of practitioners to form an formation. We still have to disperse the practitioners into the army. According to

Attributes, cultivation levels, combined with the strength of the entire army, form a real army formation. The true energy, manpower, equipment, and military morale are integrated into one." Li Ding instinctively blurted out, but immediately, he paused for a moment, and then came slightly.

Sigh. "Do you just trust me so much? Or do you think deep down that I'm just a knife and nothing to worry about?"

"Not to mention that I have never only used you as a sword, but I have taken ten thousand steps back. According to what you said, you only used a sword, and it is also an indestructible sword that can smash mountains and slay dragons. People like me

, even the cloth and cow dung encountered on the roadside have to be saved, how can you say that a precious sword is not a concern?" Zhang Xing said with a joking smile. "The yellow gelding is still riding, and the unsheathed sword given by King Qi is also there.

I also have a compass I bought for more than ten cents. Although I don’t use it, I still hang it on my waist when I go out.”

As he said that, Zhang Xing took out a compass. Although he had bought it five or six years ago, it was still 80% new. He didn't know whether it should be attributed to Taishang Laojun's consecration or to the progress of China's manufacturing industry.

"Do you want to try it?" Zhang Xing placed the compass on the stone table in the pavilion. "But be careful. Once you use it, if you don't persist and fight to the end, you will suffer harm."

Li Ding glanced at the compass and shook his head: "Like you, I also believe in myself more. It's not that things like foreign objects cannot be used. They are just as appropriate if they are used well. But when I think about what the Supreme True Dragon is doing behind it,

, I always feel guilty.”

"All of you capable people are like this. I'm convinced. It's not like me, who was forced into desperate situations several times and still had to use it." Zhang Xing nodded and put it away.

Immediately, the two continued to look at the lake. After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no new topic, Zhang Xing decided to speak on his own initiative: "Li Si, stop fussing, give up your ambition and join the gang! Now that it's over, it's all over.

It's Guan Long who still has the advantage in strength, but it won't be you...and I'm just going to use your skills to defeat the strong with the weak!"

Li Ding's spirit perked up slightly, and then he immediately shook his head: "I will not surrender for three reasons."

Zhang Xing sneered: "Then I have four to surrender."

Li Ding answered seriously: "I'm not interrupting you, but I had already thought about how to deal with your request to surrender before I came here. First of all, the time to really determine the direction of the world will be in the next year and a half, that is, Jiangdu, Dong

After the collapse of the capital, the whereabouts of the main force of the Jiangdu Forbidden Army and the consequences for Emperor Cao of the Eastern Capital. I think that even if the Forbidden Army was afraid of the few grandmasters in Jiangdu and the great master of the Eastern Capital, they did not dare to rebel for a while, but as the situation became worse and worse, this

The two places are destined to be unable to hold on. It will only be one year or two years. In other words, the general trend of the world will not be clear until then. How do you know that Uncle Cao will not desperately take Britain away before he dies?

Sir? Then my chance has come, right?"

"That's my chance!" Zhang Xing was speechless. "Maybe it's Sisi's chance!"

Li Ding was slightly startled and immediately shook his head: "In short, the situation will be clear after that. It is too early to talk about the situation now, or at least it is too early to force me to surrender based on the situation."

Zhang Xing smiled and said nothing, but did not refute either.

"Secondly." Li Ding continued. "It's a matter of my identity, or my personal ambition... You have scolded me so much today, and I don't hold back anymore. I want to be the emperor! In troubled times, I

Of course I want to be the emperor!"

Zhang Xingdan glanced at the other party steadily and said nothing. Instead, he seemed to urge the other party to continue.

"Aren't you surprised?" Li Silang was uneasy.

"You are a descendant of Guanlong. You have been trained as a military leader since you were a child, and you are in troubled times. Now you still have two counties in your hands. Isn't it natural to want to be the emperor?" Zhang Sanlang seemed even more surprised that the other party was not surprised at his uneasiness. "I

Are you surprised that he wants to be the fifth supreme being?"

Li Silang was equally calm: "There is nothing to say about this. As for the things you have done... I have never seen anyone who wants to fight for the world to verify the law from scratch and adjust the military personnel relations from scratch, and even give him a name.

Help, you want to suppress Guan Long, and you also want to clean up the aristocratic families in Jiangdong and the powerful in Hebei... I won't be surprised if you really want to kill a few dragons one day just to return the earth's energy."

"Then don't you want to unify the world, become a true dragon and immortal, and be famous throughout the ages?" Zhang Sanlang said with a smile.

"No delay." Li Silang responded seriously. "There is no delay between wanting to be emperor after the troubled times and unifying the world, becoming a dragon and becoming a god."

"That's the truth." Zhang Xing continued with a smile. "Why don't you surrender?"

"And, can you and your gang really tolerate me?" Li Ding said seriously. "Over and over again?"

"I can tolerate you." Zhang Xing also suppressed his smile. "I have nothing to say about the first one, I can only say we'll see; not to mention that I don't care about the second one, the key is to understand the situation clearly and then

In fact, your intelligence will die out on its own. Your ambition is to dominate the world after all. This has been your ambition since childhood, and we have no conflict on this point. The third point is that if you are two years late,

I can tolerate you, and the Gang can tolerate you..."

"Are you so tolerant?" Li Ding took a long breath. "Have you ever thought about it, it's okay right now, we haven't fought a war yet, I don't have any lives on my hands, and I haven't occupied your territory... But once the storm rises, for

Fight for the most fatal glimmer of opportunity, or be directly wrapped up in the situation and fight with you, can you still be so tolerant?"

Zhang Xing was quiet for a while and gave the answer: "I myself will be angry, even angry, but as the chief, I can still tolerate you Li Silang, and the gang must tolerate it too... because the gang is not a personal thing.

It wants to overthrow the entire Wei Dynasty and restore peace to the world. It shouldn't have these emotions... I just want to ask you one thing, if Xue Changxiong surrenders now, do you think I should accept it?"

Li Ding remained silent, but was obviously stunned.

"I must accept that if Xue Changxiong is willing to surrender, we will have the best place in Hebei, we will have the weapons of the Hejian camp, and we can barely make up three grandmasters, and we will have nothing to fear. At most

He said he just reformed the Hejian Army after surrendering." Zhang Xing spoke quickly and steadily. "Are we going to settle accounts with him at this time and say how many of us he killed and a leader? Including how many he killed before.

Hebei Rebels? Or care about his identity as the leader of the Guanlong clan? If you care about these, more people will die, and even directly affect success or failure." At this point, Zhang Sanlang spoke slowly. "Compared with him, you

Who is Li Laosi? Who do you look down on? Besides, no matter how much I ridicule you today, have I ever had the slightest intention of not recognizing your ability? Li Laosi is still the one I believe in the world.

The most powerful blade, the one who can smash mountains and slay dragons is none other than you. You are the best in the world in defeating armies and destroying countries, but you just don't have the time."

Li Ding's heart moved slightly and he wanted to speak.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xingfu added another sentence: "But on the other hand, if you know this, but just use our gang's ambition to calm down the world, then don't blame us when you use up your sword."

Just put it away and hang it up.”

Li Dingfu simply remained silent again.

"So, are you coming or not?" Zhang Xing answered seriously. "I believe in your words. I only need a word from you. I will naturally believe you. It is because of the situation that I am afraid of attracting the British Duke and Uncle Cao, and I am afraid of causing a sudden war in Hebei.

Even if you don’t speak, you will always understand in your heart... If you have to wait until the situation changes drastically, it will be different after all, and there will be a layer of estrangement. How can you eliminate it? "

"Let's just wait until Dongdu or Jiangdu changes. Since you are so confident, why are you afraid that in the past year and a half, I will give up on you." Li Ding thought quietly for a while and suddenly stood up.

, looking cool and unrestrained, actually wanted to leave first.

Zhang Xing watched the other party leave the pavilion, then stood up and called to the other party: "Li Si!"

"What else?" Li Ding turned back, curious.

"The thing I regret most now is that I was too generous to Qin Er. I could have pushed him, put pressure on him, and asked him to surrender early, but I always thought that time would prove something and let him reach the same destination through different routes..."

"Isn't this bad?" Li Ding looked at the afternoon sun shining on the pavilion, hiding Zhang Xing's face in the shadow, and couldn't help but laugh. "Don't you still have confidence? You can tolerate Xue Changxiong and Chen Bin

, Feng Duan, can you tolerate those tycoons Xu Shiying and Zhai Qian who dominate in private, tolerate Shan Tonghai, who was a gangster in the past, tolerate the bandits who are greedy for money, tolerate the rude Xie Minghe, and tolerate the Cui family's children who are speculating?

To tolerate an ambitious person like me, what did Qin Bao do that makes you unable to tolerate it anymore?"

"It's not that I can't bear it, but it should have been better." Zhang Xing walked out of the pavilion with his hands behind his back and came under the sun. He was dressed in half-worn plain brocade clothes with a dull expression on his face and a mouth that kept chattering.
To be continued...
