Chapter 77: The world is at war (6)

Chapter 77: The world is fighting (Sixth)

Seeing that Zhao Ji loved her very much, Mrs. Li couldn't help but laugh and said, "Since you like it, just pick it, why should you be so polite?"

Zhao Ji, who was overjoyed, couldn't help but ask in disbelief, "Such a precious treasure, is it OK?" Mrs. Li picked up the blue umbrella and asked her, "Do you like it?"

Zhao Ji originally liked this color, so she immediately took it with her hands happily, nodded and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Li." The latter smiled slightly and took her to see other swords. "You are so kind, I'm taking you here as a friend, so how could I be stingy with these? The unearthed treasures should have some use."

Seeing that other swords were full of cold light, Zhao Ji couldn't help but exclaim, "The world's arsenal is the wife's."

"This is wrong." Mrs. Li said as she pointed to the earth and said with a smile, "The biggest treasure in the world is the earth."

Zhao Ji was stunned and immediately burst into laughter.

When it was dark, Zhao Ji finished halfway through the first floor of the basement, which had seven floors underground. Mrs. Li laughed and said that the house was originally built on a historical site, and the seven floors underground were originally ancient buildings. They were buried underground for countless years and were still strong, so they were used as warehouses.

After dinner, when it was dark and most of the people fell asleep, Mrs. Li took Zhao Ji to the night sky and flew straight to Qi in the southwest direction.

At night, Zhao Ji and Mrs. Li flew over the western part of Chen State. Looking down from a high altitude, a large area of ​​flames on the ground burned, but they were too far away to see clearly.

"Unfortunately, it seems that Chen, the soul-chasing Taoist army at the junction of Qi is in a decisive battle with the Qi army. It depends on the situation and is fighting within a hundred miles." After Mrs. Li said that, she flew away in the sky, and she quickly landed in the enclave. Because the speed was too fast, she fell to the ground again. Although Zhao Ji knew that nothing would happen, she couldn't help but screamed in fear when the mountains and forests were approaching quickly.

Mrs. Li took her to fly above the forest, and flew out of the mountains and forests in a short while. She flew for more than 30 miles, and she vaguely saw a village and a road.

Only then did the two of them feel at ease on the ground.

"I'm afraid that someone will see it. The town closest to Chen State is about thirty miles away, so we'll walk."

"It's going to be hard for Madam."

When the two walked to a small town, they saw that the Zhou flag was planted. Zhao Ji revealed his identity and asked two fast horses to carry on the trip. However, the soldiers of Chen who were sending the horse knew Mrs. Li. After a while of greeting, the two were able to get on the way.

"Mrs. Li really has a wide range of friendship."

"I have excavated ancient ruins nearby. The man just now was a hunter at that time and put a lot of effort into helping me. It's been seven or eight years since I thought he still remembered it."

"It is rare for people to say that noble people forget things, but Mrs. Li still remembers him."

Zhao Ji sincerely respected her and felt that Mrs. Li could remember such an ordinary person clearly.

The two arrived at a city and found the Shenhun Zhudao Army responsible for the war and asked Bu Jingxian where he was. The man said he didn't know and asked them to go to Jingcheng two hundred miles away to find the leader of the Shenhun Zhudao Army.

Zhao Ji was afraid that Mrs. Li would be exhausted, so she rested overnight. The next day, the two changed two horses and drove for a day. On the way, they changed five fast horses and finally arrived in Jingcheng at dusk.

After entering the city, Zhao Ji found that the Taoist chasing troops in the city were all wearing the armor of Chen and Qi, with a neat line, a solemn appearance, as if they had been trained. She was surprised when they saw those people knowing her identity.

Seeing that her face was strange, Mrs. Li asked, "What?"

"How could the Taoist Army be so strange..." Zhao Ji couldn't help but express her inner doubts.

"strangeness?"

"They are not like soul-will seekers at all."

"Haha." Mrs. Li couldn't help but laugh softly. Zhao Ji hurriedly added, "They are like soldiers in the top seven, with strict military ranks and clear systems. How come they look like pursuers of the soul and will?"

"This is not surprising." Seeing Zhao Ji's confusion, Mrs. Li explained with a smile, "Chen State experienced many changes, and many soul-will pursuers were slaughtered and expelled by Chen soldiers. Most of the borders near Han, Zheng and Chu were moved there, while those who were far away moved to Qi. At that time, Qi State was afraid that the chaos of soul-will pursuers in Chen State would repeat in Qi State, so those soul-will pursuers were not allowed to enter the country. Some soul-will pursuers who were unwilling to change established villages at the border between the two countries. Those who were willing to change would lie that they were ordinary people and thus entered Qi State."

Mrs. Li was so clear about these things that Zhao Ji was very surprised and interested in listening.

"Those soul will seekers who live in the border areas lack food, many of them starve and die of illness, and later plagues. Many young people fled to Qi State, and gave up their stubbornness about the soul will and chose to enter Qi State to survive in a flexible way. Those who still haven't left were almost killed because of the plague. The soul will seekers who entered Qi State did not dare to pray for blessings for many years, nor did they dare to salute foreigners, for fear of being driven out of Qi State and died under the plague. After a few years, Qi State gradually relaxed its defense against the soul will seekers, and those talents dared to regard themselves as soul will seekers."

"Some people boldly returned to the border area of ​​Chen and Qi, rebuilt the villages and lived and lived. Slowly, more and more people passed by. Until Beijun revolted in Wei State, Chen and Qi expelled the people of the Shenhun Sect, and many people were naturally forced to go to the villages at the border to survive. At the border, the village chief of Shenhun Village was a very capable young man. He judged the possibility of making an act based on the situation at that time, so he made many requirements for those who defected to the people who came over. Anyone who could not accept it could not stay in the villages at the border."

Zhao Ji suddenly realized, "Those who went there had already experienced tragic disasters and had given up their souls and will in order to survive, so they could accept all the requirements. For those who fell, survival was more important than anything else. The young man Mrs. Li mentioned was Qian Tian, ​​the leader of the Taoist army in the Soul Chasing Army today."

"Yes. So from the perspective of the Spiritual Soul Kingdom, the Spiritual Soul Chasing Dao Army is already a group of fallen people, at least not qualified Spiritual Soul Will Seekers. I think the Northern King will accept them, and it is also because of the situation that there must be other considerations."

While they were talking, they arrived at the Jingcheng City Guardian. The guard at the door asked them about their name and purpose, ran in and reported. After a moment, a group of people came out.

When Zhao Ji saw that the leader was cold and calm, walking steadily and fast, and was quite majestic, he thought it was Qian Tian.

"I don't know that General Zhao has arrived, and Qian was in a hurry to welcome him. Please speak in there." The official Qian Tian spoke, which made Zhao Ji very uncomfortable, but he did not forget to perform the ceremony of the Soul Sect. Seeing this, Qian Tian and others hurriedly followed him to reply. However, when several soldiers at the same time began to raise their hands, they didn't know where they put it. They all looked at Qian Tian pressing his forehead and eyebrows, and then they realized the imitation.

After entering and sitting down, Zhao Ji asked Bu Jingxian where he was. Gan Tian looked at Mrs. Li, and Zhao Ji suddenly said, "This is Mrs. Li, the senior whom the sect leader respects very much."

Gan Tian and his several confidants all bowed and greeted each other, and then he admitted frankly, "The sect leader selected 30,000 elite troops, walked through the northern evil forest, passed through the black stream of Qi State, and attacked the northern city pass of Qi capital. When he left, he had an explanation, saying that if General Zhao came back within three days, he would ask General Zhao to chase him and help him. Now the sect leader has only been two days away."

Zhao Ji was surprised. Unexpectedly, Bu Jingxian had this plan. When the Qi army in Chen was still resisting tenaciously, everyone thought that he would lead his troops through poor mountains and rivers and attack Qidu when he was commanding the war. However, this move was very risky. There were still hundreds of miles from the northern pass of Qidu to the Heixishui, and there were still several military towns that must pass along on the way. If there were heavy troops stationed in all, they would not be able to break through easily. Once delayed, the city gates north of Qidu were prepared. With the advantages of the terrain of the pass and the complete defensive facilities, it would be difficult to break through.

Then it will become a situation where the army is alone and surrounded by enemies.

"I wonder if this is the sect leader's own idea?" Zhao Ji felt that this Tian was not like a good person. He was afraid that this idea was made by him, so he couldn't help but become more careful and asked clearly.

He saw Gan Tian clasping his fists and heading towards the north, saying, "Your plan to come up, but he only selected 10,000 warriors from the Dao Army. Obviously, he had already investigated the route of surprise attacks. This long-term strategy made everyone admire him."

After hearing this, Zhao Ji felt relieved and quickly stood up and said, "Since that's the case, Zhao Ji will go after the sect leader and say goodbye."

Gan Tian and others were sent out of the mansion, and asked people to prepare fast horses, prepare food and drink water.

Mrs. Li and Zhao Ji ran out of the city for a while, then abandoned the horse and flew away instead.

Thousands of miles of road, under Mrs. Li's light wings, it only takes a long time.

Mrs. Li knew the route too, so when she flew to the North Evil Forest, she landed at a low altitude and flew away on the trees to find traces.

When I passed through the North Evil Forest and entered the swamp area of ​​the Black Stream, I found traces of the army. Not long after chasing, I saw the army moving away from the distance under the moonlight.

As they flew closer, the two of them stood firm on the ground and walked to chase.

At this time, the soldiers stopped to rest. When someone saw them coming, he hurriedly surrounded them with vigilance. When he heard Zhao Ji's shouting, he did not fire the crossbow, but just surrounded them. After a moment, Bu Jingxian, who had received the news, came over, and the people put away their weapons and went back to the camp to rest.

"Madam Li!" Bu Jingxian was very surprised to see Madam Li coming with her. He hurriedly asked her to rest and speak, but Mrs. Li said, "Northern Lord, come with me."

Seeing this, Zhao Ji probably had something to say, so she consciously retreated from the camp of the surprise attack army.

Bu Jingxian followed Mrs. Li for a while. Seeing Mrs. Li spread her wings, she hurriedly opened her eyes. She flew east together. About ten miles away, Mrs. Li stopped on a large stone and turned her body to greet Bu Jingxian.
