Chapter 38: Brothers (Part 2)
[Old D's right index finger, blood stasis, tragedy, it's very hard to type]
Brother Su Jing was drinking, and the two little monsters felt bored. It was impossible for them to come up to eat and drink as well. Besides, the two little monsters had not yet got rid of blood food and liked to eat meat. The fruit and rice wine really faded out of the birds for them.
"Second brother, it's time for you to join Yulin. Should you delay another year or go after the end of this year?" Su Jing asked Su Jian.
"My father asked me to endure it for another year and arrange for me to go to the border of the Northern Region and among the old subordinates of Lin Hengshan." Su Jian said with some dissatisfaction.
Su Jing smiled and said, "Second brother, my teacher is a rare innate warrior who can control swords thousands of feet. Ordinary Qi Refiners in the Foundation Establishment Stage are not enough to kill him. Don't think that there is no one in the army, and without the power of the Golden Elixir Stage, it is really nothing in the army. My father asked you to go to the border of the Northern Region because he hoped that you could make achievements, not a gangster life. With the help of my teacher's old subordinate, it is always much better than relying on yourself."
"Look, the third brother said so." Su Ling looked at Su Jian worriedly and said, "There is nothing wrong with using his father's power. Unless your own abilities are not enough to do what you want to do. That is harming people."
"Brother, why did you scold someone?" Seeing that Su Ling's face was extremely serious, Su Jing quickly raised his glass and drank the wine in the glass, and said, "Brothers, just talk about family matters. Come on, I'll sing a paragraph for the two brothers."
The three Su Jing brothers had a good relationship, but because there was no conflict between interests, there was no one in the family of the two brothers, so it was difficult to have conflicts. Xiaoyao Hou's nature is really not bad, but he just acted nonsense outside and did not hurt anyone's lives.
He is the prince. After saying that, even Su Ling is the eldest brother, he can no longer teach Su Jian a lesson.
Su Jing turned sideways and pulled out a golden hairpin from Huang Shuang's head. The green jade-like wine glass was placed in front of him. Su Jing gently tapped the golden hairpin and started singing-
How about wine and singing, life
It's like morning dew, the past is full of suffering
Sigh with generosity, worry unforgettable
How to relieve worries is the only one
Yoyo Deer Singing, Eat the Wild Apple
I have guests, playing the throne
Green Zijin, my heart is lingering
But for your sake, I have been thinking about it until now
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the magpie flies south
Walk around the tree three times, which branch can be based on...
When Su Jing sang this, she couldn't continue singing, so she had to pretend to be drunk, throw her golden hairpin, grab the wine pot, and turn her head down.
Huang Shuang complained, putting away the golden hairpin that Su Jing threw on the table and hid it in her sleeves, but refused to insert it on her temples anymore. After cutting off a story in the middle of this short song, the ending was even more allusionary, which had nothing to do with the history of this world.
After all, Su Jing was not a poet, nor was he as talented as Wei Wu, so he gave up.
In the sky, the blue-eyed crow circled. After listening to Su Jing's long song, he flew away with a croaking sound.
Su Jian clapped his hands and laughed, saying, "Brother, my third brother's literary talent is not something I read randomly. It's like morning dew. It's more painful to go away, it's more painful to go away!"
Speaking of this, Su Jian suddenly saw tears flowing from his elder brother Su Ling's eyes.
He knew that the elder brother missed his mother. Su Ling's mother died early and no relatives were alive in her family. His qualifications were ordinary, so how could he not sigh when he heard this heart-wrenching poem?
Seeing that Su felt a little regretful, he insisted on chanting these two lines repeatedly, but Su Ling said, "The good poems I have made in my third brother, hey, I blame me for being unstable in my heart, it is not your business."
Su Jing was also a little embarrassed, and at the same time he was a little alert. When drinking, there was clearly nothing in the sky, so why did the blue-eyed crow suddenly appear?
"Brother, let alone this, third brother, Lin Hengshan's strength will be that strong?" Su saw the interruption and turned around to ask Su Jing.
"Why is it not strong? My father summoned him over. He only brought one daughter from the border of the Northern Region to Yujing City. He encountered quite a lot of trouble on the way. Those who did not want their father to interfere in the military affairs of the Northern Territory will attack Lin Hengshan. But he entered Yujing City safely. If it were you, could you give you five hundred elite soldiers, be able to do it?"
When Su Ling and Su heard this, they were indeed the case. They were both Qi Refiners in the Foundation Establishment Stage. If they gave them another 500 elite soldiers, they would probably not be able to travel tens of thousands of miles and come to Yujing City safely.
Although it is impossible for Xiaoyao Hou to use the regular army of the Eastern Qin Empire to intercept it, the nobles in any place do not have strong private soldiers.
The number of private soldiers of a state governor in a place can reach 60,000. The nobles who manage a mansion can also have tens of thousands of private soldiers. This is unimaginable in an era when Taoist sects had never emerged.
As for the place of a city and a county, it is not surprising that the nobles have thousands of private soldiers. There are monsters in this world, and there are always places that cannot be managed by the Twelve Palaces. Monsters are born in such places, and things that invade the people often happen.
One of the most important responsibilities of the nobles is to clean up these wild monsters.
Lin Hengshan can safely reach Yujing City from the border of the Northern Region. This is a real power, and it has any effect than Su Jing bragging about anything.
"Third brother, how about a strong man like Lin Hengshan, who is in the Northern Territory border?" Su Jian humbly asked for advice.
"I heard from the teacher that there are no less than ten martial arts powerhouses like him in Tiebi City."
The Northern Territory border is a general term, a line of defense composed of four big cities and twenty-four small cities, which separates the tribes on the northern wasteland from desolate places and cannot enter China.
Tiebi City is only one of the twenty-four small cities. However, Tiebi City is isolated and prominent outside the defense line composed of other cities. There are many strong people in this small city. Even the soldiers in Tiebi City are no less than the four elite troops of the Eastern Qin Empire.
Yulin, Wudang, Longqi, and Xuanyuan, these four armies can be said to be the family of the empire. The number of Qi Refiners in it has reached half a century, that is, one Qi Refiner among the twenty people.
There are not so many Qi Refiners in the border areas of the Northern Region, and their combat power is entirely supported by warriors.
When Su saw him, he remained silent. Su Jing smiled and said, "Second brother is thinking too much. If you join Yulin, you will be the identity of a Qi Refiner. Yulin has very few troops in the border border of the Northern Region, and it is not your turn to charge into battle."
"What's the point of joining the army?" Su Jian muttered. He was a young man with a strong aura. At such a young age, he had already built a foundation and placed it in the Taoist palace. It was a pity that the Qingming of the Su family's true understanding required blood power to achieve the golden elixir after practicing.
So if Su Jian is in the Su family, even if he is likely to achieve the golden elixir in the future, he will not be the true explanation of Qingming.
Su Jing, whose bloodline is pure, and the Qi Sea of Dantian is damaged, Su Ling and Su were holding a breath in their hearts. Will his father's inheritance be cut off?
Although Lin Xiehong was accepted as a disciple, Qingming's true explanation had to be cultivated by bloodline power, and Lin Xiehong could not get Qingming's true explanation in the end. The possibility of a man with pure bloodline appeared in the descendants of the two of them was too small.
The atmosphere became a little depressed, Inujuro put it on and said with a smile: "Young master, why don't I perform a trick to relieve the two young masters?"
"Cause? What kind of tricks can you little demon have?" Su Jian curled his lips. He and Su Ling are both qi refiners in the foundation-building stage. These two little demons are only in the innate stage. All tricks are easily seen through by their brothers.
After seeing through it, what I saw in my eyes was nothing more than some runes, which was not interesting.
"Inujuro, just do it." Su Jing clapped his hands and signaled Inujuro. The eldest brother was in a bad mood, and the second brother was worried about the future. It is not advisable to talk about too serious topics now, so it is better to let Inujuro make a fuss.
Inujuro agreed, pulled out a bunch of fluff on the back of his neck, blew it on the table, and turned into more than a hundred dog-headed men, wearing tattered leather armor, shouting and rushing towards Su Jian and Su Ling.
These kobold men are only the size of fingers, and the weapons in their hands are also in tattered.
Whoosh!
A small short axe flew towards Su Ling's forehead and headed straight for his eyebrows. When Su Ling was about to get angry, the small axe had fallen halfway and fell to the ground. With a bang, it shattered. When he looked at it, it turned into a spoon.
The dog-headed men behind also shot out bows and arrows. Most of these bows and arrows had no heads. Even if they had a head, they fell to the ground halfway and turned into bamboo sticks. Those who were originally wearing fruits or picking teeth.
The dog-headed man charged on the table with great momentum, then tripped over the cup and plate and rolled onto the table.
Seeing these dog-headed men in a mess, Su Ling laughed first. Su Ling also smiled, closed her hands and crushed the quilt. The green light condensed, turned into a golden-armored warrior, holding a big knife, and jumped onto the table. The two sides immediately fought. The golden-armored warrior blades were sharp, one by one, and cut the approaching dog-headed men into two pieces.
Then the remaining kowtows abandoned their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy. Their expressions were somewhat similar to Inujuro.
"Your name is Inujuro, right?" Su Ling asked casually.
"Yes, the eldest master."
"Is the dog-headed man you have transformed, the subordinate of the evil god in the West?"
"Yes, Mr. Great shows me the illustration of evil gods, so that I can know what many evil creatures under the evil gods look like and what abilities do they have. Mr. Great said that in the future, I will fight with the young master in the kingdom of evil gods, and I will learn everything at once."
"The Kingdom of Evil God!?" Su Jian was surprised.
Su Jing spread his hands and said, "Father didn't tell me this."
Su Jian was silent again, but it shone with excitement. After the founding of the Eastern Qin Empire, there were about a hundred years of turmoil, and the remnants of the hundred families were tossed for a long time. However, with the current emperor ascending the throne and thunder sweeping away some of the nests of the hundred families, there were only a few descendants of the saints of the hundred families, and the Eastern Qin Empire was completely calmed down.
When joining the army, there is often nothing to do. Whether you are sad or going south, there is no even enemy.
The kingdom of evil gods west of the Six Dragon Snow Mountain is actually thousands of miles away, with primitive forests, mountains, deserts and harsh environments in the middle.
The Eastern Qin Empire was unwilling to waste national strength on an expedition, so it took a hundred years of peace to rely on those tribes with insufficient strength to sharpen their knives. If this continues, the entire Eastern Qin Empire's army will lose its vigor.
