Chapter 118 Big Appetite

Xu Jin's impression of the small town of Gujiu was that it was remote and dilapidated. As for the people in Gujiu City, Xu Jin had already formed a rough first impression of them before seeing them. When Xu Jin

After Jin actually met the people in Gujiu City, he found that these people were no different from what he thought.

In front of Xu Jin, a team of about two thousand people had gathered at this time, most of them were old people, all of them were wearing shabby clothes. Their eyes looking at him clearly revealed their fear and uneasiness.

They looked at Xu Jin standing in front of them. The few children who did not dare to speak loudly were also held tightly in the arms of their adults. Some even covered the children's mouths for fear that the children would

Some noise was made at that time, which made Xu Jin and others unhappy.

Looking at the people in front of him, Xu Jin sighed slightly in his heart, then smiled on his face and spoke to the people in front of him.

"We are the blood warriors of the Chen Kingdom. Yesterday, under the leadership of the Crown Prince of the Chen Kingdom, we recaptured Gujiu City. We have gathered everyone here today to inform you of this matter. You are originally citizens of the Chen Kingdom.

, My Blood Owl Taoist soldiers will be stationed here from now on, and there are no other officials from Chen State in the city for the time being, so most things will be handled by us. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to us to solve them!"

As Xu Jin spoke, he paid attention to the expressions of the people in front of him. He found that until he finished speaking, the fear and vigilance in the eyes of the people in front of him did not diminish at all. Obviously, these people were not affected by Xu Jin's words.

, he immediately developed some trust in Xu Jin.

Xu Jin was not too surprised by this situation. Now that the Chen Kingdom was in war, it was normal for these people, who were already living a miserable life, to be wary of people like them who had just entered the city.

Fortunately, Xu Jin did not plan to use these people for anything. After saying this, he loudly asked everyone if they had any problems to solve. After receiving silent answers from everyone, Xu Jin asked everyone to leave.

When these Gujiu people dispersed and went back, they had a lively conversation, discussing what Xu Jin had just said.

After Xu Jin met the people in the city, he called Wang An and asked him to take a few people to leave Gujiu to check the current situation of Yiguo's army.

Two Taoist soldiers from Yiguo came to aid Chen Guo. Jingguo should respond quickly and may start fighting again. Although Gujiu is located in a relatively remote location, it is still within the original territory of Chen Guo and is far away from Yiguo.

The army's current position is not too far away, and Xu Jin needs to know the current situation.

After Wang An took people out to inquire about the news, Xu Jin called Zheng Hong and asked him to take his stream soldiers to clean up the city and clear out an open space. Then he would station here and conduct daily drills.

You can't stop, you need a relatively spacious place.

After receiving Xu Jin's order, Zheng Hong did not do it immediately. Instead, after thinking for a while, he said to Xu Jin: "Soldier, the soldiers of Jing State whom we captured yesterday are still being imprisoned.

I want to release these people and let them clean up the things in the city, so that we can save some manpower and the remaining people can do other things!"

"Well, let's do it like this!" Xu Jin smiled and nodded at Zheng Hong.

Since the battle with Hong Ye, Zheng Hong has completely joined Xu Jin's team. Now there are some things that Zheng Hong can take the initiative to do without Xu Jin having to say them.

After Zheng Hong also left, Xu Jin returned to the room alone, took out a jade plate from the storage bag, and began to study the contents.

In fact, he has basically seen all the jade dishes that Xu Jin has on his body, but only part of them. Xu Jin only looked at them briefly due to time constraints before, and did not study them in detail. Now he finally has time.

Okay, Xu Jin will study these contents carefully.

The jade plate in his hand now is the "Stream Sutra" he got from Hong Ye before. This technique is slightly inferior to the "Wind Disaster Sutra" that Xu Jin is currently practicing, but the content is described in more detail.

After Jin had a cursory look at it, he felt quite enlightened.

Now Xu Jin's cultivation is in the middle stage of the Harmony Realm. Because he has passed the stream steel whip to hone his artistic conception before, the magic power in his body has improved a lot. However, Xu Jin feels that he is still far behind in the cultivation of the Harmony Realm.

After being further trained and improved in Taoist art of war, Xu Jin's cultivation broke through to the realm of harmony and light. A resonance was formed between his own artistic conception and the corresponding rules of heaven and earth, making Xu Jin feel the mystery of the rules.

Compared with before, the mana in Xu Jin's body has increased, and his artistic conception has also become stronger. However, Xu Jin's understanding of the corresponding rules of heaven and earth is still a little behind.

Previously holding the stream steel whip in his hand, Xu Jin mainly used the Dharma in it to hone his artistic conception, but through becoming familiar with the Dharma in it, Xu Jin also gradually gained a clear understanding of the next path of cultivation.

Cultivation in the Heguang realm is not just about accumulating magic power, but also honing one's artistic conception, deepening one's understanding of the corresponding rules of heaven and earth, and further clarifying one's own path.

Holding the jade plate recording the "Stream Sutra" in his hand, Xu Jin compared the contents of the "Wind Disaster Sutra" he practiced with each other, and combined with his own spiritual insights, Xu Jin gradually showed a surprised expression on his face, but soon he regained his composure.

He turned into frowning and thinking deeply, as if he had encountered a new problem.

I don't know how long passed like this. When Xu Jin came to his senses, he turned to look out the window and found that the sky outside had become dark.

When people are obsessed with one thing, time often passes quickly. Xu Jin was not too surprised by this. He just put away the jade plate and thought in his heart: "It seems that the next time,

You still need to make a plan and make some choices in the content of your training. You must take this opportunity to improve your own strength as much as possible!"

Although Gujiu is remote and seems to be relatively stable due to the care of Youguo, it is still in the middle of a war. It is difficult for anyone to predict how the situation will change next. This seems to be stable.

Xu Jin actually had no idea how long the place could be stable.

Wang An had returned to Gujiu at this time. After Xu Jin walked out of the room, he saw Wang An waiting outside the door.

"Soldier Master!"

Seeing Xu Jin coming out, Wang An immediately stepped forward and bowed.

"Well, you've been waiting for a long time. Are there any dangers on this trip?" Xu Jin looked at Wang An in front of him, nodded to him and asked.

"My subordinate just came back not long ago. He didn't wait here for long. He didn't encounter any danger when he went out today!" Wang An heard this and replied to Xu Jin.

"Then tell me what you saw when you went out today!" Xu Jin continued.

"Yes, after my subordinates left Gujiu today, they quickly found traces of the Yiguo Taoist soldiers' activities along the way they came. The dark path they left was very conspicuous, but they did not continue to advance into the Chen country.

Instead, it went between the two countries. My subordinate followed the path to check, and encountered the fire ghost Taoist soldiers on the way. After learning the identities of the subordinates and others, they did not embarrass us, and never made it difficult for us.

From the mouth of the fire ghost, my subordinates and others also got some news!"

"Part of Jingguo's army has returned to support, but the number is not large. The two sides are currently negotiating. Jingguo's side does not seem to want to fight with Yiguo!"

Wang An stopped here. Apparently this was the only information he got.

After listening to Wang An's words, Xu Jin thought quickly in his mind, and then quickly figured out some issues.

Xu Jin originally thought that Yiguo's army should continue to advance a certain distance into the interior of Chenguo at this time, and assume a posture of attacking the rear of Jingguo's army, thereby relieving Chen's danger.

But after listening to Wang An's words, Xu Jin learned that those Taoist soldiers from Yiguo were still around and did not move forward.

And Chen Zhe made a special trip to Yiguo to ask for reinforcements and paid such a high price. After bringing the reinforcements back, it was impossible for them to just contain and frighten the Jingguo army from a distance at the border. The current situation could only be that there were other

reason.

As for this other reason, Xu Jin quickly came up with a possible idea in his mind after thinking about it.

"Could it be that Yiguo is planning to block the Jingguo army in the territory of Chenguo so that they cannot return to Jingguo, and they are preparing to take the opportunity to attack Jingguo!"

As soon as this idea came up, Xu Jin felt that he might have guessed right. Yiguo and Jingguo were already bordering each other. They sent troops to help Chen Guo this time, and they must get enough benefits from it.

There is Jing State between Yi State and Chen State. Even if a passage can be easily opened, it seems that occupying Jing State's territory is a better choice than obtaining Chen State's territory. It is even possible that Yi State will

They can kill two birds with one stone. Not only do they want to occupy Jingguo's territory, but they can also get the benefits promised by Chenguo.

"Yiguo, you really have a big appetite!"

Xu Jin thought so in his heart.

But think about Yiguo's Yanxing, Huogui Taoist soldiers, and the Taoist soldiers of only 5,000 people. The strength displayed by Yiguo is indeed quite powerful, and Yiguo obviously cannot have only these forces. Assume how many more Taoist soldiers Yiguo can have.

With such Taoist soldiers, it is not surprising that they plan to take advantage of this opportunity to expand their territory.

It's just that Jingguo's reaction now makes Xu Jing confused. He can understand Yiguo's huge appetite. Jingguo has no moral principles and can't imagine it. And now maybe Yiguo's army has entered Jingguo.

It is impossible that Jingguo does not have the means to pass on information internally, so the reason why Jingguo is still negotiating with Yiguo is somewhat puzzling.
