In the evening, Tao Wenbao came back. The chef Chen Sangu prepared a banquet in the main hall. Li Bochen and Tao Wenbao drank a few drinks. They got along with this pig shop director like a spring breeze, without any restraint. He repeatedly advised him to drink, but Li Bochen drank more, unconsciously drunk and talked more.

Tao Wenbao asked him if he had practiced. Li Bochen thought that this kind of thing could not be hidden from others, so he said it straightforwardly.

Tao Wenbao sighed: "Chen'er also clamored to practice, but I have never come up with a charter. Since Mr. Li is a practitioner, how do you think?"

Li Bochen thought to himself that I was just a half-baked person, so there was no high-profile theory. But since the boss asked, he had to think about it and said, "Mr. Tao's family is rich and powerful. I want to call Dingchen to practice swords for martial arts, and to strengthen his body. But when it comes to strengthening his body, the effect of practicing martial arts is better. Mr. Tao asked someone to see if Dingchen's qualifications in the path of cultivation?"

Tao Wenbao said: "When he was five years old, I invited someone to see it. He said that his qualifications are acceptable and he can get started. But the degree to which he can do in the future depends entirely on the support of his family."

Li Bochen understood that this should mean that Tao Dingchen's qualifications are not very good. Practice depends on both talent and wealth. Apart from a very small number of talented people, most of the remaining ones need to be supported by various geniuses and treasures. Not to mention anything else, it is just that the energy in the human body flows, is full of vitality, and eats more than ordinary people. If even eating at home is a problem, it would be a fool to practice.

There is also this reason why one can eat enough in the army, but there is still a huge gap compared to the kind of "eating well" that practitioners have.

Li Bochen thought for a while: "Tao Gong's family status is naturally not a problem, but there is another point. Once a person practices, spiritual power will be spread in his body. Some evil spirits and ghosts like to get close to people with strong spiritual power. To put it seriously, they may also provoke some dangerous secret spirits. This is also a disadvantage of cultivation."

Tao Wenbao nodded repeatedly, added wine to the two of them, and drank a drink first: "That's right. I've considered this point - the higher the level of cultivation, the greater the risk. I heard that some masters themselves provoked the devil during their practice, but ended up getting into a devil and losing their lives."

"Oh... I can't make up my mind because of this. I want Chen'er to be rich and peaceful for a lifetime, but I am afraid that the situation is as good as today, and the days of peace and prosperity will not last long. Does Mr. Li know that it is said that a few days ago, Wanyou City was captured by the Demon Kingdom."

Li Bochen was shocked and woke up most of the time he felt drunk: "What!?"

He immediately realized his incompetence, but fortunately, Tao Wenbao was also drunk and did not notice him. He breathed a sigh of relief and drank the wine in front of him, but his heart still had not calmed down.

Like Wuliang City, Wanyou City is also a military fort. Both cities are in Dangtu Mountain in the snowy field. Wanyou City is about 300 miles away from Wuliang City, and it guards the pass between the old lands of the Sui State and Li State. He remembers that when Sui City went to Wuliang City to preside over the construction of Zhongzhou barrier, he said that the barriers in the Wanyou City area had been completed and from then on can be turned into defense to offense.

But from then on to now, Wanyou City has been destroyed without even a month!? How did it be destroyed?!

Li Bochen couldn't help but pour wine for the two of them again and drank three cups in a row. Although Tao Wenbao was a shrewd businessman, he probably didn't know much about military affairs. He was just sighing because he didn't know what the destruction of the Wanyou City meant.

The occupied by the Demon Kingdom not only means that the Zhongzhou barrier, which consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, is no longer useful, but also means that the Demon Kingdom finally has obtained a stronghold in the Dangtushan defense line. If it can stand, it can attack from both sides in the future, and even cross Dangtushan to directly take the six countries' lands.

Can they stand? Li Bochen thought about it carefully and felt even more shocked. It is mid-winter now, so it is inconvenient to increase troops. Moreover, Wuliang City, the closest to Wanyou City, has lost its troops and generals, and it is difficult to protect itself, let alone reinforcements.

If there was no shocking reversal, it would be only a matter of time before Wuliang City was taken away again.

Seeing that his face was surprised, Tao Wenbao sighed, "Yes, I was as surprised as Mr. Li. The front-line war was not good, and I am afraid that the country would have to be in great storms in the next few decades. At that time... who can guarantee that my family will not be broken? If Chen'er was a practitioner at that time, he might be able to make a living with his own abilities like Mr. Li."

Li Bochen couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: Tao Wenbao was too optimistic. Decades later? I'm afraid the worst result is that in two or three years, the old land of Sui and Li Kingdoms in the northernmost country will become a battlefield full of corpses!

Speaking of this, both of them were a little excited. So they drank a few more glasses of wine, had some snacks, and the table was dispersed.

Li Bochen pressed some cold water to wash his face in the water room in the front yard, feeling a little sober. He returned to his room and took the half-cornered wine, stood in front of the door and drank slowly.

The sky was cold and the sky was clearer, so the night sky became clearer. The brilliant starry man crossed the sky, and the glow was shining. He let out a breath and couldn't help sighing again. He wanted to solve the problem a few days ago and live a stable life, but tonight he heard that Wanyou City was broken, and his heart was turbulent again.

If the Demon Kingdom really attacked Sui and Li, there was no place to settle down in the world? I was afraid that it would take a long distance to the legendary ancient land.

If you want to survive in such a chaotic world, you can only make yourself stronger. This is a world where people can be eaten, and if you don’t want to be strong, you will only become more and more difficult or even die. He doesn’t like this world, but knows that he is powerless to change and can only adapt.

The Spirit Lord... The Spirit Lord... He secretly recited it several times in his mind. His qualifications in the path of cultivation are mediocre, and the only way to become stronger is probably the "Spirit Lord" - if it is true.

He couldn't help but say in his heart again: "If there is any secret spirit attached to me, please give me some clarity. If I can let me live well in this troubled world, I don't mind giving me anything."

He recited this three times, and then listened. But the night was lonely, and only one or two barkings came from a distance. What he heard was his own voice.

Looking at me again, there were only one or two wintersweet petals falling, and even the wind didn't rise.

He smiled and drank the rest of the wine. Perhaps everyone in this world would think he was a different person like himself. But perhaps the final result was that they were ordinary people after all. There were indeed extraordinary people in the world, but they would not be themselves.

This ability to use Yin Ling...maybe it just is some unknown superpower related to its origin. Aren't Yu, Jiao, Rakshasa, and Sumeru all born superpowers?

Many people have to fully understand this truth when they are in their forties or in their forties, but they understand it earlier than them.

Li Bochen then walked back into the house with a wine pot.

But as soon as he took a step, he was suddenly stunned.

He felt as if he knew what the "secret spirit" attached to him was.
Chapter completed!
