Chapter 371 Lingnan Changes? Li Nuo Decided to Use Force to Push Back
September twenty-four.
Wushan Mountains.
The miasma that isolates the human race and the Wu race on both sides of Wushan is getting thinner and thinner, but even so, ordinary people will be killed instantly if they get close. Only those experienced old hunters and woodcutters who have been relying on the mountains all year round know how to prepare precious medicinal herbs to resist the erosion of miasma.
“Once you take this step, there is no turning back.”
Looking at the purple miasma three feet in front of him, Li Nuo asked.
Jiang Qiuyue's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of determination, and then she took a step forward and replied, "I've decided."
"Then...wish you good luck."
Looking at this slightly lonely figure, Li Nuo let out a long sigh.
This princess of Xichu, who was in such trouble that she was homeless, still had such tenacious faith.
If she can become the ruler of Xichu, I'm afraid Dayin will really be in trouble.
But it's a pity that the Western Chu Kingdom doesn't know people, and the upper-level people only know how to fight for power and gain. If they can't unite as one, how can they unify the world?
Xichu, who has lost Jiang Qiuyue, has ambition but no brains, and will never achieve hegemony.
The terminally ill Dayin Dynasty is expected to live for several decades more.
"Thank you."
Jiang Qiuyue suddenly looked back and smiled.
This was a sincere thank you from her heart.
If Li Nuo hadn't escorted her all the way, she would have been swallowed up by the assassins who were chasing him, and even her bones would have been left.
Smile away grudges.
In fact, Li Nuo no longer hated Jiang Qiuyue in his heart.
He had long figured out that Emperor Jingshun would take action on him, the new champion, regardless of whether Jiang Qiuyue was there or not.
Because he is the successor of the Lushan faction. The Lushan family has seriously threatened the imperial power.
"If...I mean if, you really encounter any trouble in Wushan, you can go to the three Luyue brothers and sisters. They are my people."
Li Nuo thought for a while and turned over the trump card to Jiang Qiuyue.
There was a trace of surprise in Jiang Qiuyue's eyes: "When did you start planning for the Wu Clan? How many trump cards do you have?"
Li Nuo smiled noncommittally and said: "There are many things you don't know. That's it. See you again if we are destined."
"There will definitely be a chance to meet again, but if we meet on the battlefield in the future, I will not show mercy."
Jiang Qiuyue smiled sweetly.
She knew that she and Li Nuo would never be friends.
Unless...she can give up Xi Chu, or Li Nuo can give up his identity as a citizen of Dayin.
"You don't have this chance. You just can't kill me."
Li Nuo laughed.
A third-grade martial artist with an indestructible body, even if he wanted to be killed by a hundred thousand elite troops, he could not do it.
"Hmph! Don't be arrogant. After I lead my army back to Western Chu to seize power, we will see you on the battlefield!"
Jiang Qiuyue snorted, turned around gracefully, and walked into the purple miasma with one step.
An ancient jade hanging on her chest emitted a faint halo, resisting the erosion of the miasma.
This is her trump card!
Her royal brother and even her father didn't know that in fact, before the Rakshasa prince failed in his fight for the kingship and was about to go to Wushan, he specifically looked for her and gave this jade pendant to her, saying that she would be in trouble in the future and that he would go there when the time came. Wushan looked for him.
She was only five years old at the time, but she was already enlightened and wise. Seeing Uncle Wang's serious look, she remembered this matter deeply in her heart.
Since Uncle Rakshasa Wang can deduce the future and it works, then he must have a way to reorganize Xi Chu.
It's not that easy for those kleptocrats who hold high positions to make her admit defeat!
This is the source of Jiang Qiuyue's firm belief.
Seeing Jiang Qiuyue disappear completely into the purple mist, Li Xiaoyao was extremely puzzled: "Boss, didn't we agree to go to Wushan together? We are already at the door, why don't we go in again?"
Li Nuo said calmly: "It's not the time yet."
Li Xiaoyao asked: "Then when will we conquer Wushan again?"
"Next year, on February 2nd, the dragon will raise its head."
Li Nuo said.
He has not forgotten that only the black butterfly Gu on February 2 can save Zi Yuan's life.
Li Xiaoyao said disappointedly: "Oh, it's still half a year away, so where are we going now?"
"Go back to Guangling County."
Li Nuo said.
In fact, his original purpose was to enter Wushan. He had a vague feeling that Ren Tianxing's disappearance was definitely related to the Wu clan.
But the closer he got to Wushan, the more uneasy he became. It seems that as soon as you step into Wushan, something terrible will happen.
He concentrated his mind, searched his entire mind, and finally found a foggy corner that even his consciousness could not penetrate.
There……
It seems that an extremely terrifying life form is hatching.
Once it breaks out of its shell, it will suck away all his memories. And he will be completely parasitic and become a walking zombie without a mind or a soul!
This idea becomes clearer and clearer as time goes by.
Li Nuo finally understood why he had lost part of his memories when he was young, and they all became the nourishment of that thing!
He recalled what senior Jiang Rou had said to him when the three Lu Yue brothers and sisters fell into their dreams - let Lu Yue and his soul blend together, so that he could be reborn.
It seems that this must be related to the mysterious life form in my mind.
It's just that Li Nuo didn't understand how that thing entered his mind?
Even though he was saving lives by asking him to do shameful things with other women, he was still unwilling to do so.
It's not that he's being pretentious.
But he loves his wife deeply.
He firmly believed there was another way...
Yaowang Valley!
Li Nuo thought of Jiang Ran'er from Yaowang Valley again!
I don’t know if Jiang Bodhisattva’s [Shen Nong Ruler] can save him.
Of course, this matter is not very urgent. The most urgent thing to delay is to straighten out Lingnan.
———
It only took two days to return to Meiguan.
However, when I arrived at the pass, I found that martial law was already in place.
Three steps to a post, five steps to a sentry.
Even if Li Nuo had customs clearance documents, he was interrogated for a long time before being released.
After entering the third most powerful pass in the world, Li Nuo spent another half day arriving at Guangling Mansion.
The atmosphere in Guangling Mansion is even more depressing.
Only allowed in, not allowed out.
There are even groups of heavily armed officers and soldiers patrolling the streets and alleys.
Li Nuo randomly walked into a tea shop on the street and ordered a pot of autumn chrysanthemum tea and a plate of cakes.
At the next table, three big men were whispering, but they couldn't escape Li Nuo's ears.
"Hey, have you heard? Just yesterday, our new prefect was thrown into prison by the governor."
"Prefect Chen Yuyan is a bachelor of [Fifth Grade Bianyan Realm]. Why did he offend the Governor?"
"I heard that the governor asked him to sign a paper and present it together. He didn't seem to want to, so he had a falling out. Guess what happened? He was arrested as soon as he returned to the government office."
"Ah, what crime?"
"Hmph, if you want to impose a crime, why bother? He is now locked up in the sky prison."
"Alas! The storm is about to come, and the wind is blowing all over the building. We are afraid that the weather in Lingnan will change."
"Let it change. When has the imperial court ever had anything to do with us in Lingnan? Let me tell you, who is in charge of this family is still the same? We all have to get up early and work late at night, day after day, year after year, and now we have some free time to come. Have a sip of tea.”
"Hey! Look, those officers and soldiers are here to arrest someone again."
…
"Three elder brothers, I've invited you for this pot of tea. I'd like to ask, isn't there an imperial envoy coming to patrol Lingnan? Why are they still so lawless?"
"What kind of corrupt imperial envoy can you find? Young man, let me tell you, this is what the Governor is doing in Lingnan!"
The old man pointed to the sky.
Li Nuo: "I'd like to hear the details."
The old man smiled and said: "Think about it, Governor Cao is a second-rank official, which is the same level as the ministers of the three provinces and six departments of the imperial court. And what about the imperial envoy? He only has a fifth-rank official title, what can he do? So I Come on, is this imperial envoy offending someone? It’s better if he doesn’t come forward, but once he does, there will definitely be no good fruits. But this imperial envoy is also smart. He has been hiding in the inn these days and has not come out..."
Li Nuo nodded, deeply convinced.
It seems that all the sources lie with Governor Cao.
Governor of Lingnan!
The feudal official!
But Chen Yuyan and he were old acquaintances. Now that he was arrested, he couldn't just ignore him, right?
Li Nuo was thinking in his mind.
Are you asking for someone as an imperial envoy, or are you asking for someone as a third-grade warrior?
This is really a bit particular.
But no matter what...
First, you have to meet Chen Yuyan.
After all, hearing about some things will only make you more confused.
At this time.
There was another noise outside the street.
"You guys, get out of here and get out of my way! I haven't broken any laws, so why should I be arrested?"
This voice is somewhat familiar.
Li Nuo turned to look out the window, where a group of murderous officers and soldiers were confronting a woman.
And this woman is the Red Lady!
Unexpectedly, we had seen each other again after seeing each other at Longmen Inn before.
"Red Lady, you killed Mr. Cao's beloved horse indiscriminately. Now a complaint has been filed with the government. Please come with us."
The officers and soldiers smiled sinisterly.
The red lady said disdainfully: "That's a demon, and I let the horse demon run rampant on the street. I am doing this to eliminate harm for the people!"
Officer and soldier: "You have to go to the government office and tell the official that you can be arrested without mercy. I advise you not to resist, otherwise you will suffer a lot!"
The red lady taunted: "You guys alone are not enough for me to fight!"
"This woman is willing to use knives and guns. Why bother?"
A handsome young man walked out of the crowd and opened his folding fan, looking a little carefree.
"Cao Zijian, it's true that you set a trap to frame me! I told you that I will never obey you even if I die."
The red lady was furious when she saw that the rightful owner finally came out.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are worthy of being a red lady. She really has a personality. I like such a fierce horse." Mr. Cao looked at the red lady's hot body greedily and said, "Someone, tie up this fierce horse." , send it to the young master’s house, and the young master will tame her himself!”
"Do it!"
The officers and soldiers drew their swords and rushed forward.
When the red lady saw this, she immediately waved her long whip and fought with him.
When people around him saw this, they all fled away.
However, there are also some people in the world who put their hands on the hilt of the knife, filled with righteous indignation and eager to rush forward to save people.
But they finally let go of their hands in frustration.
People under the eaves have to bow their heads.
This Young Master Cao is the son of the Governor. In Lingnan, if the Governor is Heaven, then this Young Master is the son of Heaven!
These people wearing official uniforms are actually generals of the Cao family, and the leader is a fifth-grade martial artist.
The red lady was unable to fight against the four hands with her two fists, and was soon caught.
"Child of the Cao family, even if I commit suicide, I will not let you succeed."
The red lady struggled hard, endless hatred bursting out of her eyes!
This bastard had caused trouble for her a few years ago, but he was severely punished by Ren Tianxing at that time. I thought I was being honest, but Ren Tianxing was missing for two months, and this guy broke his disguise.
Cao Zijian stepped forward, lifted the red lady's chin with a folding fan, and said with a smile: "I don't understand, I don't understand. What's so good about Ren Tianxing? It's just a defense at Meiguan. Is it worth all you have to do for him? I'm the governor." My son, if you follow me, even though I can’t give you the title of my wife, I can still guarantee your glory and wealth for the rest of your life.”
"Bah, shameless!"
The red lady secretly spat.
"Hmph, after entering my Cao family, the chaste and martyr girl also wants to... come and take her away!"
Cao Zijian gave an order and the red lady was stuffed into the carriage.
The red lady also struggled and screamed: "Cao Zijian, you are robbing a girl on the street. You regard the laws of the imperial court as child's play. The imperial envoy patrols Lingnan and will never let you go!"
Mr. Cao laughed wildly: "Haha, imperial envoy? He himself is a clay bodhisattva who has crossed the river. How can you still count on him?"
The red lady gritted her teeth angrily and said: "This imperial envoy is Mr. Li Zianli from the Lushan Gate. He is very capable! Ren Tianxing has already obtained the evidence that you and Xi Chu secretly communicated with each other. If I have any shortcomings, this evidence will be Present it to him.”
"Not even a fly can fly out of the entire Lingnan Road now. Your evidence cannot leave Lingnan..."
Mr. Cao said coldly: "So, I don't believe it!"
…
"Brother, that is the famous red lady in the world. Do you want to save him?"
When Li Xiaoyao saw this, he was angry and angry. When he saw injustice on the road, he immediately wanted to draw a sword to help.
Li Nuo put down the tea cup and said in surprise: "Have you ever been able to fight?"
"Hey, brother, you're here, too! If you take action, who in Lingnan Dao will dare to stop you? Governor Cao also has to give you face, right?"
Li Xiaoyao smiled coquettishly, then became anxious, "Brother! The carriage is about to run away. If we don't take action, it will be too late."
"Follow up."
Li Nuo said lightly. Of course, he would not remain indifferent and let Mr. Cao snatch away the red lady.
This is his future sister-in-law, how can she be bullied casually!
"Xiao Cao, it's useless if you don't believe me."
Li Nuo stepped lightly and flew to stop in front of the carriage, looking at Young Master Cao with a playful expression.
The officers and soldiers immediately drew their swords and stepped forward to stop them. How could Li Xiaoyao let them succeed? He ran over quickly, raised his sword horizontally, and cursed loudly: "Young Master, I am Li Xiaoyao from Yihua Palace. This is my boss. You guys are just the younger ones." Now get out of here, young master."
Yihua Palace!
One of the ten sects in Jianghu!
Everyone on the scene was shocked.
When those people in the world saw someone taking the lead, they all gathered around. More people make you bolder, and you cannot lose momentum.
"Let them go!"
"Let the red lady go!"
"Robbing people in broad daylight is not justified anymore!"
…
When the red lady saw someone coming to save her, she shouted anxiously, "Let me do whatever I want, just leave me alone and leave quickly!"
If you offend the Cao family, don't even think about leaving Lingnan.
They may be able to give Yihua Palace face and not embarrass the young master Li Xiaoyao, but they will definitely not give Ren Woxing face.
Mr. Cao narrowed his eyes and asked warily: "Who are you?"
Let me do it?
Such a coincidental name?
I'm afraid it's just a pseudonym.
Li Nuo said with a smile: "Formal introduction, I am the imperial envoy who you call the Clay Bodhisattva who can't save himself when crossing the river! Cao Zijian, your case has been reported, please go with this imperial envoy."
