Chapter 35 Requirements
"...Jing Guo's traitor must have thought that the methods he deployed were foolproof, but how could he have imagined that the destructive methods he deployed would not be able to do anything to me, Mr. Chen Guo, and he could only retreat in the end!"
In the barracks, Xu Jin pricked up his ears and listened to the conversation of the two Chen Shou waiters beside him, listening to them talk about some details of the battle that took place last night that he did not see or discover.
As the waiters around Chen Shou, the two men may not have high levels of cultivation, but their knowledge is far beyond what Xu Jin can match at this time.
Last night's battle was a journey between life and death for the two of them. Under the excitement, the two waiters had been chatting with each other since they entered the barracks yesterday, especially when they found themselves chatting.
When Xu Jin, who was in the same barracks, was secretly paying attention to the content, the two of them chatted even more enthusiastically.
Although they ignored Xu Jin, in front of Xu Jin, a Taoist soldier who had experienced the same battle as them, showing off their knowledge was something that could make them feel a little happy and relaxed.
And through the conversation between the two, Xu Jin also knew that the battle last night was far more dangerous than it seemed.
Mu Ling's layout in that small space was much more than what Xu Jin saw, but more than half of the layout did not have any effect. The reason was that Chen Shou's burst of strength completely exceeded Mu Ling's.
In the end, he even forcibly broke through the small space that Mu Ling had arranged.
From the conversation between the two waiters, Xu Jin learned that Chen Shou used an earth energy crystal when fighting Mu Ling. This gave Xu Jin new insights into the reason why Emperor Sheng returned the tribute items.
know.
In addition, Xu Jin also found out how Zhen Yin from Chen State, who was not easy to get along with, died.
According to the descriptions of the two waiters, Zhen Yin, who survived Jingguo, possessed a scale that contained a hint of divine power. When Si Bu and Si Bu had just gained the upper hand, the opponent controlled the scale to counterattack, killing him with one blow.
Chen Guozhenyin, who was not easy to get along with, died.
Also during the war, the two waiters also mentioned the names of the spells performed by the admonishers of the two countries, and how powerful or mysterious they were. Although some of them were suspected of bragging,
Xu Jin found it quite interesting, and he did gain something.
As the two of them continued talking, Xu Jin listened quietly. When the scene was quite harmonious, the door of the barracks was suddenly pushed open, and the person who walked in was Wu Xing. He glanced at the three Xu Jin people in the barracks, and first said to
Said to the two waiters.
"The king lets you pass!"
When the two waiters heard this, they immediately stood up and walked out. After the two left, Wu Xing's eyes fell on Xu Jin, with an inexplicable look in his eyes, and then he spoke.
"We are going back to our country. How are your injuries?"
"Thank you for your concern, Commander. I'm almost recovered. It won't affect my continued journey!" Xu Jin stood up and replied.
"That's good. In yesterday's battle, you made a great contribution. Your Majesty will definitely reward you when you return. You can think about what you want in advance now!" Wu Xing seemed to have already thought about it!
Xu Jin, who was fine, smiled and said.
"The admonisher of Jingguo was injured by two admonishers of Chenguo. He fell in front of me at that time. I just took a cheap advantage and didn't have much credit. As for your Majesty,
The reward is given by your Majesty, I should have no right to ask for anything!" Xu Jin said cautiously after hearing Wu Xing's words.
"The credit is yours, don't be too humble. In addition, although the reward given by the king depends on the king's wishes, if you have any requirements, I can also say it for you. This can be regarded as my role as your soldier.
Lord, this is the last thing I can do for you!" Wu Xing said to Xu Jin after hearing what Xu Jin said.
After saying this, Wu Xing saw Xu Jin's eyes light up slightly, and he immediately guessed what was going on, and then hurriedly added.
"You'd better not ask your Majesty to train you to become a higher-level Taoist soldier. This requires a certain amount of spiritual materials and time. There are several required precious spiritual materials. Your Majesty will use them next. It's impossible to use them right away.
It’s up to you, so if you make this request, you won’t get anything for the time being and will have to wait for a while.”
"And if you go to the battlefield next, you may not be able to wait for time. If you can last enough time on the battlefield, you should naturally be able to make some achievements. By that time, you don't need to ask, Your Majesty.
They will consider training you into a stronger Taoist soldier, so you might as well make some other requests!"
After Xu Jin heard Wu Xing's words, he was about to say that the reward he hoped to get was to be able to train himself into a stronger Taoist soldier, thereby improving his own strength. But after listening to Wu Xing's words, Xu Jin knew that maybe
It is true as Wu Xing said, if he makes this request, he will get nothing for the time being.
"Besides becoming a stronger Taoist soldier, what should I want?" The reward he wanted most was temporarily unavailable, so Xu Jin quickly calculated in his mind what he should want.
Xu Jin soon had the answer to this question. In addition to improving his own strength, his most urgent thing at the moment was to change his current situation as soon as possible.
As a Taoist soldier, Xu Jin's first step in changing his situation is to control his life and death in his own hands as much as possible.
"I want to become the new commander of the Blood Owl Dao soldiers after the commander resigns!" After Xu Jin figured it out, he took a deep breath and said to Wu Xing in front of him.
"this!"
Hearing Xu Jin's words, Wu Xing was stunned for a moment and looked at Xu Jin in disbelief. He did not expect that Xu Jin would actually make such a request.
"You, no one has ever been able to become the leader of a Taoist army as a Taoist soldier. Your request is somewhat beyond my expectation. I am afraid that the Lord may not agree to it. However, today's Blood Owl
There are only less than a hundred Dao soldiers left, and it seems that there is no one suitable to control the Blood Owl Dao soldiers. I can mention this to your Majesty. Whether your Majesty agrees or not depends on your own destiny!
"
Quickly coming back to his senses, Wu Xing looked at Xu Jin and spoke to him.
After accepting Xu Jin's words, Wu Xing felt that there might be a slight possibility that Chen Shou could agree to Xu Jin's request.
First of all, there are currently less than a hundred Taoist soldiers of the Blood Owls, which are insignificant. When Chen Guo is about to go to war with Jing Guo, there may not be suitable practitioners willing to accept it. After all, after taking over, they will have to take these less than a hundred Taoist soldiers with them.
On the battlefield, the gains are slightly outweighed by the losses.
Secondly, on this trip to Yunshangjing, the performance of the Blood Owl Taoist soldiers and Jing Guofeng's Taoist soldiers on the road made Chen Shou know that the Blood Owl Taoist soldiers had been completely familiar to Jing Guo, and their evaluation in Chen Shou's heart had been lowered.
A lot.
Under such circumstances, it is not a bad idea for Xu Jin, a Taoist soldier who has made meritorious deeds, to become the new leader of the Blood Owl Taoist soldiers. This will reward the meritorious ministers without losing anything practical.
Thinking of this, Wu Xing felt more and more that Chen Shou would probably agree to Xu Jin's request. The only obstacle was that there had never been a precedent for a Taoist soldier to become a military leader. Chen Shou might be concerned about this.
The two walked out of the barracks, Xu Jin joined the other Blood Owl Taoist soldiers, and Wu Xing went to Chen Shou's side.
"I hope my request can be granted!"
Looking at Wu Xing's leaving figure, Xu Jin thought with some anxiety.
To be honest, Xu Jin had no idea whether his request would be granted, but for him, this was indeed a good opportunity to get out of control, and Xu Jin didn't want to give up this good opportunity.
Without Wu Xing, the possibility of becoming the leader of the Blood Owl Taoist Army would be very slim. After all, there is no precedent for this before, and generally no one would think of it. However, Wu Xing helped him to mention it.
, then this matter will have a certain possibility, Xu Jin can only hope that he can get what he wants now.
After Xu Jin and the other Blood Owl Dao soldiers met, they waited for a while before Chen Shou and others appeared. Then, surrounded by several military generals and protected by a group of soldiers from the army, the team
Walk towards the Shenxingtai.
Not long after, Xu Jin saw the statue of a strange beast with two heads and wings that looked like a horse again.
Before starting the Divine Path, Chen Shou also said to several military generals who were accompanying him.
"You must arrange military matters as soon as possible, be vigilant, and be ready to go to war at any time. In addition, I will send an envoy to Qi State soon. Pay attention to inquire about Qi State's movements. If there is any
If there are any abnormal situations, please report them to us immediately!"
"General, I will definitely live up to your entrustment!" After hearing this, several generals immediately responded in unison.
Then, the Divine Walking Path was opened, and the statue of the strange beast came to life again. Chen Shou nodded to the generals, and then led Xu Jin and others into the Divine Walking Path.
After passing through the Shenxing Road, they were not far from Liangyu. Wu Xing used his magic and everyone returned to Liangyu, the capital of Chen State, in less than half an hour.
After entering Liangyu, Xu Jin soon discovered that compared with before he left, the atmosphere in Liangyu seemed a little wrong. It was not as lively as before. Pedestrians on the road looked a little strange when they saw the people.
.
All the way to the palace of King Chen, the team stopped here. Many people gathered in front of the palace to welcome Chen Shou's return.
Xu Jin glanced at it and found that before they left, about half of the people who saw each other at the door of the high-end and big houses were standing here, and there were no smiles on their faces. Obviously, they were not just there to welcome Chen Shou's return.
.
"Your Majesty, Jingguo...!"
When these people saw Chen Shou, one of them immediately came forward, saluted to Chen Shou, and wanted to report something. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, Chen Shou stopped him.
"Well, although Jingguo's matter is urgent, there is no need to say at the gate of the palace that you will follow me into the palace and you will report later. I have my own arrangements!"
