Chapter 862

In the imperial court of Daibun, the relationship between men and women was very particular. Not to mention the details, just the way they were addressed was different from person to person.

For example, a normal relationship between a man and a woman was called "Going to Mount Wu"; an abnormal relationship between a man and a woman was called "Gay Love"; a relationship between a man and a woman was called "One Dragon and Two Phoenixes"; a relationship between a man and a woman was called "Two-pronged".

It was even more advanced.

The relationship between Xu Qi'an and Fu Xiang's body was called "Underline".

The relationship between Xu Qi'an and Huang Xianer was called "Underline".

"Sex life" was Xu Qi'an's subconscious ridicule. It was a term that transcended the era. Even the knowledgeable and talented Huaiqing couldn't accurately understand the meaning of this word. She could only guess that it wasn't something good.

After ridiculing, Xu Qi'an was a little embarrassed. He couldn't help but miss the "recall" function from his previous life.

Fortunately, Huaiqing didn't probe further because she didn't know what it meant. She sent a message: [I have read the file of Southern Garden Joan of Arc 26. There were two things that happened. First, in the autumn of Joan of Arc 26, the beasts in the Southern Garden suddenly went extinct. There were only traces of beasts in the depths.

[Second, Duke Huai and His Majesty went hunting in the Southern Garden when they were still princes. They were attacked by a Xiong Pi. The accompanying guards were all killed. Duke Huai, in a rage, tore the Xiong Pi apart. He was praised by the former emperor as the future pillar of Daibun.]

She sent a few paragraphs, paused for a few seconds, and sent another message: [I suspect that Duke Huai and His Majesty went deep into the Southern Garden because they couldn't find any prey in the periphery.

[In addition, the former emperor's health had always been good, but because he was obsessed with women … he fell ill in his later years. The warlock of the Celestial Commissioner could only extend his life for a year. He passed away after a year.]

Xu Qi'an sent a message: [What do you mean by the large extinction of beasts in the periphery of the Southern Garden? Did the beasts escape?]

Number One sent a message: [Unlikely. Beasts are very territorial. Without being driven away by violence, it is unlikely that they would leave their territory. Also, this is not a special case, it is a mass extinction.]

After that, she became silent. She didn't disconnect, nor did she continue to send the message. Obviously, she was waiting for Xu Qi'an's opinion.

Xu Qi 'an thought for a moment and sent a message: [I will continue to investigate this matter. Can we meet in private? I will tell you in detail.]

Number One sent a message: [No.]

She sent a message: [Yes.]

"Ha, she doesn't know that I know her identity …" Xu Qi 'an curled his lips.

After putting away the fragments of the book, he lay on the bed with his hands behind his head and began his routine review and analysis.

"The former Emperor was obsessed with women all year round, and his body was in a sub-healthy state. According to the law of immortality, the former Emperor should have died …"

"The one that Emperor Yuan Jing and Duke Huai met in the depths of the Southern Courtyard back then was definitely not Xiong Pi. If it wasn't Ursa Pi, what could it be?

"Also, Duke of Huai'an was still young. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't be stronger than the royal experts. It was unreasonable that he and Emperor Yuan Jing did not die even though all the experts in the imperial palace who accompanied him were dead.

"A more accurate guess is that during the crisis that year, he and Emperor Yuan Jing avoided death for some reason. This reason could only be that they were lenient. If they escaped, the Yuanjing Emperor and Duke Huai should have reported to the palace and let the Yuanjing Emperor send experts to deal with it. But the official record of this event is: Duke Huai tore Xiong Pi apart and was praised by the Yuanjing Emperor as the future pillar of the country.

"This means that the Yuanjing Emperor and Duke Huai hid the truth."

…

The same night, Crescent Bay, Northern Region.

A bonfire was burning. A low table was set with roasted beef and lamb, as well as horse milk wine.

The barbarian men and women danced around the bonfire. Their voices were rough, and the atmosphere was lively.

As autumn approached, the temperature in the north began to plummet. The coarse wind blew on Xu Xinnian's face, making his delicate face uncomfortable.

Under Pei Man Xilou's recommendation, he smeared sheep's oil on his face to resist the dry weather in the north.

Xu Xinnian's plan was effective. Thirty thousand Daibun troops attacked from the north and caught the Jing Kingdom off guard. In the battle two days ago, they cooperated with the barbarians and annihilated three thousand Fire Armored Army, one thousand four hundred light cavalry, and five thousand foot soldiers.

For the northern demons and barbarians, this was the biggest victory they had achieved in the past two months of struggle. Naturally, the Daibun troops received a warm welcome and preferential treatment from the barbarians.

But Xu Erlang knew that there were two sides to every coin. For this attack, in order to increase the speed of the march, the thirty thousand troops only brought four days' rations.

If the rear supply line was cut off, the thirty thousand troops could face the situation of running out of food. Moreover, because the battlefield was constantly moving, it was difficult for the logistics troops to transport food to catch up with their own people.

It was more likely that they would encounter the Jing Kingdom's army.

Although the Monster and Barbarian Races claimed that they could borrow food, once the war broke out, who would be able to take care of each other?

At that time, they could only return to the border and wait for an opportunity to come again, which would miss a lot of opportunities.

Xu Erlang was not used to drinking horse milk wine, so he took small sips and watched the men and women of the Monster and Barbarian Race dance.

For the Monster and Barbarian Race, it was not strange for women to appear in the barracks. First of all, the existence of these women could satisfy the physiological needs of men.

Second, the women of the Monster and Barbarian Race also had strong combat power.

Pei Man Xilou looked at Xu Erlang, who was sitting upright and still. He smiled and called a coquettish woman over and ordered, "Serve our friend well."

Then he said to Xu Erlang, "It is boring in the barracks. The soldiers have to fight on the battlefield during the day and have to vent at night. Old brother, she belongs to you tonight. Don't take pity on her. "

The coquettish woman snuggled up to Xu Erlang with her coquettish eyes and used her soft and full chest to rub against Xu Erlang's arm.

Xu Erlang frowned and pushed her away repeatedly to show that he was not such a person.

It was a critical moment for the two armies to confront each other. How could he be obsessed with women … I will not touch a woman of the Monster Race, who knows what kind of thing she is … Her chest is quite soft, no no no, I can't think like that, I am a scholar … At least, at least you have to take a bath …

After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Xu Erlang stuck to his Daibun scholar nature and did not give the woman a chance.

When he returned to the military tent, he only took off the heaviest outer armor, took off his boots, and fell asleep immediately.

Chu Yuanzhen silently appeared in the military tent. He sat on a chair, hugged his sword, and closed his eyes to sleep.

Those who had fought against the Witchcraft Cult would basically form a habit. When resting at night, two people would form a team. One would sleep, and the other would keep watch. Once they discovered that someone who was sleeping had died without a sound, they would immediately sound the alarm.

The reason for all this was that a Rank 4 Sorcerer was called a Dream Sorcerer. They were best at killing people in their dreams.

However, for a Dream Sorcerer to use this method, there was a limit to the distance and number of people. Usually, after killing a few dozen people, the Dream Sorcerer would be discovered.

During the battle of Shanhai Pass, Wei Yuan had researched a method to deal with Dream Sorcerers. He sent a few Rank 4 experts and Warlocks to disguise themselves as scouts and patrol outside the camp.

Once a camp was discovered, the Warlocks would first search for the Dream Sorcerer and lock down the location of the Dream Sorcerer.

If the Dream Sorcerer wanted to use this method to kill people, it would not be too far from the camp. With the speed of a Rank 4 expert and the ability of a Warlock to locate the enemy, most of the time, they would be able to win in one strike.

Exchanging the lives of a small number of soldiers for a Rank 4 Dream Sorcerer was a great deal.

In a daze, Xu Erlang returned to the capital city and sat at the dining table with his family.

At this moment, his father, Xu Pingzhi, suddenly clutched his throat and died with a ghastly expression. Black blood seeped out of the corner of his mouth. Following that was his mother, his sister Lingyue, and his brother …

Xu Erlang turned pale with fright and looked at his younger sister Lingyin. A sinister smile appeared on Lingyin's round face. "You've been poisoned to death, just like them."

In Lingyin's hand was a packet of arsenic.

"Lingyin, you …"

Xu Erlang was in disbelief.

"Hmph, none of you gave me anything good to eat. All of you must die." Lingyin said something that suited her character.

I didn't expect that I would die in the hands of Lingyin … Xu Erlang was about to speak when he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. Black blood seeped out of the corner of his mouth and his life quickly drained away.

At this moment, a ray of purple light lit up in front of Xu Erlang and Xu Lingyin. She groaned and her body quickly dissipated.

In the tent, Xu Erlang opened his eyes and sat up, panting heavily.

"It's a Dream Sorcerer!"

He spoke in a hoarse voice as he pressed on his chest. Here, there was a jade pendant that Recluse Zi Yang had given him.

A personal jade pendant that had been nurtured by the great scholar for many years.

At that moment, the roar of cannons sounded, exploding outside the camp, exploding within the camp. Flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the night.

The ground began to shake, as if countless armoured horsemen were approaching, charging towards them.

They were being attacked by the Qing Kingdom in retaliation.

…

Deep into the night.

Northeast border, Ding Guan City.

The crescent moon hung high in the sky. Wei Yuan was wearing a deep blue cloak as he stood on the city walls of Ding Guan City, overlooking the smoke-filled city. The cannons tore through the houses and streets, and cries and screams rose one after another.

Under the cover of night, Ding Guan City was undergoing a baptism of blood and fire. Daibun's horsemen and foot soldiers charged into the streets of the city, engaging the Fire Country's defenders who were putting up a desperate fight.

The sounds of battle were everywhere.

Wei Yuan turned his gaze back and looked at the head in his hand. His eyes widened, fear and fear forever etched on his face.

Ding Guan City's army, Baldy Hei.

He shook his head disappointedly and tossed the head off the city walls as he said softly: "Just a little lacking!"

After that, Wei Yuan's gaze swept over the horse path. It was covered with the corpses of soldiers, the blood sticky, staining the broken city walls red.

Behind him, more than ten high ranking generals stood silently, not saying a word.

A portion of his old subordinates were expressionless. If they could not even take down a mere city, then there was no need to fight.

A portion of the generals who had never followed Wei Yuan before, had truly experienced the phrase 'commanding an army like a god' this time.

Wei Yuan wiped the blood off his fingertip and said gently: "Pass down my orders, slaughter the entire city!"

The cool breeze of autumn blew over, and the moonlight shone brightly. Wei Yuan's dark green cloak fluttered in the wind, and his eyes reflected the flames of war that were leaping about.

…

The next day.

Xu Qi 'an yawned as he got out of bed and squatted under the eaves, washing his face and brushing his teeth.

After he finished washing up, Zhong Li carried her wooden basin out and began to wash up as well.

Originally, Zhong Li would squat under the eaves with Xu Qi 'an to wash up, but one time, she was unfortunately seen by Xu Lingyue.

Xu Lingyue looked very guilty. Senior-apprentice Sister Zhong was a guest of the Celestial Commissioner, and it was impolite of the Xu Residence to let a guest squat under the eaves to wash up.

On the same day, she ordered the servants to prepare a new room, which was clean and beautiful. Then, she personally invited Zhong Li to stay and had a heart-to-heart talk with her.

The heart-to-heart talk was done from the bottom of her heart, and her words were gentle and polite. The content of the heart-to-heart talk was: My big brother is not married yet, so you better stay away from him.

That day, Zhong Li moved in, feeling wronged. However, when Xu Qi 'an returned, he brought her back. However, Zhong Li was also an intelligent girl, even though Senior-apprentice Sister Caiwei was brainless and unhappy with the title of Celestial Commissioner.

But the brainless one was Chu Caiwei. Zhong Li was still very intelligent.

The intelligent Senior-apprentice Sister Zhong could sense the enmity that the eldest daughter of the Xu Family had towards her, so she silently kept her distance from Xu Dalang. Of course, the eldest daughter of the Xu Family could not see what they were doing in the room, or sitting side by side and talking.

After breakfast, Xu Qi 'an chased Zhong Li out of the room, saying: "You squat outside obediently, don't walk around, don't talk to people casually, don't … get hurt."

Zhong Li grunted and nodded her head vigorously, indicating that she was experienced and would take good care of herself.

After Zhong Li left, Xu Qi 'an took out the talisman sword and activated his primordial spirit: "Little … Imperial Preceptor, I am Xu Qi' an."

After waiting for a long time, the Imperial Preceptor did not come. Just when Xu Qi 'an thought that his contact was fruitless, a brilliant golden light pierced through the roof, and a voluptuous beauty wearing a feather robe appeared in the room. The golden light slowly dissipated.

I am probably the only man in Daibun who can be summoned by Luo Yuheng at her beck and call. If you say you don't want to sleep with me, I won't believe it even if you beat me to death … Xu Qi 'an's vanity was slightly satisfied, but he also felt that the fish pond was too small to accommodate such a big fish.

Yes, Luo Yuheng is only testing me, she does not insist on dual cultivation with me. She even tested the Yuanjing Emperor before … Eh? What's with this familiar sense of déjà vu? I, I am also a fish in her fish pond?!

Also, the robe she is wearing today is different from the past, it is brighter and more beautiful. After the waist is tied, the size of her breasts is revealed, and her waist is also very slim … Did she specially dress up?

While Xu Qi 'an was lost in his thoughts, Luo Yuheng examined him, her pretty face was covered with frost, and she said coldly: "Little Imperial Preceptor?"

… Xu Qi 'an opened his mouth, but for a moment, he did not know how to explain.

The room was silent for a few seconds, and Luo Yuheng took the initiative to change the topic: "What is it?"

"Ahem!"

Xu Qi 'an cleared his throat and said, "I've made some progress with regards to the Earth Sect's Dao Leader."

He told Luo Yuheng about the events related to the 26th year of Joan of Arc.

After listening, Little Aunt deeply frowned, and looked at him with her beautiful bright eyes: "That's all? You don't have to summon me. "

Xu Qi 'an sighed: "Imperial Preceptor, I invited you here for another matter."

Luo Yuheng looked at him.

Xu Qi 'an was silent for a long time, and after a cup of tea's time, he let out a long breath and said in a low voice: "Jinlian Taoist priest, how long has it been since you joined the Devil?"

Luo Yuheng was stunned, and her cold face showed a rare expression of surprise: "You know that Jinlian is the Earth Sect's Dao Master?"
