Infinite Battle

Chapter 268: An Incident in Wudu

Qing Xuanzi didn't want to mess with such a person, so he turned a blind eye to Jiang Shang's lack of etiquette. After listening to Jiang Shang's inquiry, he also admitted what happened last night from the side. , which made Qing Xuanzi even more cautious. After thinking about it for a while, he still felt that it would be better to tell the whole story. After all, this matter was known to the senior officials deep in the Martial Ruins.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord, Pindao came to Wude City this time mainly for the ruins of Wudu ten months from now. The ruins of Wudu will be opened soon. The original mountain gate is occupied by Wu Kuang. We are here from other capitals in Kyushu. People can only enter it through the passes in the hands of the three major cities, which is also something that has been agreed upon long ago."

"Password?"

Jiang Shang touched his chin, feeling baffled by the sudden appearance of the pass order. He originally thought that the ruins of Wudu were like a secret realm, and everyone could enter it when the time came. At this time, it seemed that, There might be something else in the ruins of Wudu that he didn't know yet.

"Yes, this object can open another passage into the ruins of Wudu."

"Interesting, there's just one thing Jiang can't figure out."

"Brother Jiang, it doesn't matter."

A sneer appeared on Jiang Shang's face, he smiled at the four people and said in a bad tone.

"The Taoist Master's command can open a passage. Could it be that he wants Jiang to send you in for free? Or is it that Pan Jun was so kind in the past?"

Seeing Jiang Shang's misunderstanding, Qing Xuanzi spoke quickly, deeply apologizing for not making it clear, and bowed to Jiang Shang before speaking.

"Brother Jiang has misunderstood. It's because the poor Taoist was not careful in his words. We borrowed it from here. Naturally, we didn't borrow it in vain. It's just that the things we collected are different. In the past, Wude City collected one second-grade treasure, and the other two Each city asks for different things, so..."

When Jiang Shang heard this, he immediately threw his head up and laughed, interrupting Qing Xuanzi's continued words. When the laughter stopped, Jiang Shang gave Qing Xuanzi a fist.

"The Taoist Master misunderstood. Jiang didn't mean anything else. He just thought it was unbelievable. As far as Jiang knows, this Panjun is not such a kind person. When the Taoist Master said this, he finally understood."

Qing Xuanzi knew Jiang Shang's intention of changing the subject and did not mention it clearly. He just bowed to Jiang Shang and said nothing.

"In that case, I would like to ask the Taoist Priest to rest in Wude City for a few days and wait until Jiang has finished handling the matter at hand before arranging this matter. What are your thoughts?"

Seeing Jiang Shang give him face,

Qing Xuanzi was also extremely polite. He winked at the three people behind him and saluted Jiang Shang before speaking.

"Then follow Brother Jiang's arrangement. Pindao and the four of them will leave first. When Brother Jiang finishes his work, Pindao will come to disturb us again."

"Easy to say, see the guests off."

Jiang Shang cupped his fists and spoke to the man surnamed Lin to signal him to see him off. This made the man surnamed Lin who had been kneeling on the ground breathe a sigh of relief. After all, Jiang Shang ignored him and he did not dare to get up on his own. At this time Jiang Shang made a sound , which can be regarded as alleviating its embarrassment.

The man surnamed Lin stood up, bowed to the four Qing Xuanzi, and spoke.

"Taoist Master, please."

Qing Xuanzi smiled at the man named Lin, and then led the three of them out of the yard and towards the inn on the street in the distance.

After the four of them walked away, Jiang Shang looked at the man named Lin with his head lowered in the yard, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"Say it."

The man named Lin raised his head and saw the change in Jiang Shang's expression. Without thinking much, he bowed to Jiang Shang, then took out a document from his arms, presented it to Jiang Shang in the palm of his hands and said to Jiang Shang in a deep voice.

"Sir, this is the list of people in Happy Forest. My subordinates met with Lu Yanbao last night, and all the factions belonging to Panjun in Happy Forest have been cleaned up, but some people still escaped."

A black light flashed in Jiang Shang's hand, and the document in the hands of the man named Lin was taken into his hand. Jiang Shang flipped through it casually a few times before speaking.

"Nothing, you have sent people to count the treasures in Happy Forest, the three families, and the City Lord's Mansion in the past two days. In addition, a group of people will arrive in two days. By then, you can easily hand over the affairs in the city."

"My subordinate understands."

When the man surnamed Lin raised his body, Jiang Shang's figure had already disappeared from the roof. After waiting for a while, the man surnamed Lin jumped into the well in the yard expressionlessly, but with a twinkling look in his eyes, it was obvious that he was interested in Jiang Shang. Shang's arrangement is a bit unsatisfactory.

Jiang Shang and Lin Shuang'er walked together on the street, looking at the martial arts people passing by. Lin Shuang'er held the bought candied haws in his hand and asked while eating.

"Then Chief Happy Lin obviously has other ideas in mind, why don't you just kill him?"

Jiang Shang, who was thinking about something in his mind, paused. Regarding what Lin Shuang'er said, Jiang Shang naturally knew very well, but when doing things, especially at this time, it was impossible for Jiang Shang to do it alone. This happy Master Lin couldn't do it alone. Leaving one behind, Jiang Shang found it difficult to control the situation.

"This is not the time."

Lin Shuang'er looked as if this was indeed the case. Lin Shuang'er felt something was wrong about Jiang Shang's killing and leaving these people behind. At this time, Jiang Shang's words came out, and Lin Shuang'er guessed Jiang Shang's thoughts.

"I knew you were so murderous, how could you let others go? By the way, do you know the origins of those four people just now? Those four people obviously know you."

Jiang Shang's face darkened, and he turned to look at Lin Shuang'er, who was eating candied haws beside him. This woman was talking a lot today.

"You talk too much."

"Hehehe, maybe I like you and that's why I'm like this?"

"Oh, then you are really a watery person. If Lin Xiaobao knew about it, he wouldn't know what he was thinking."

Jiang Shang's harsh words made Lin Shuang'er's expression stiffen, and the smile disappeared from her face. She just stared at Jiang Shang who was walking further and further away.

Half a month passed by in a flash.

Jiang Shang and Lin Shuang'er were sitting in the lobby of the city lord's mansion, which was renamed Zhenfusi. As half a month passed, the smell of blood in the mansion had disappeared, and the maids and servants were also replenished. At this time, Jiang Shang was sitting in the main seat. Above, drinking tea, the maid behind him gently soothed Jiang Shang's temples, while Lin Shuang'er sat next to Jiang Shang and glanced at the maid who soothed Jiang Shang's temples.

"Sir, people are coming."

Lu Yanbao's voice came from the gate, and there was a sound of running. Lu Yanbao entered the lobby from the yard, and quickly knelt down on one knee. Behind him was a stout man. This man was not Who is Hu Guangming?

"Brother Jiang, you are fine, hahahahaha."

Hu Guangming saw Jiang Shang sitting on the main seat without moving or caring. He just laughed and walked towards Jiang Shang.

When Hu Guangming came to him, Jiang Shang put down the tea cup in his hand, opened his eyes and looked at Hu Guangming, who was covered in travel. Hu Guangming was obviously much thinner than before, and the skin color on his face was also much darker. Obviously, during this period of time , Hu Guangming is also not living a secure life.

"Brother Hu, you are not very fast. It has been half a month and you have arrived late. We need to reconsider the distribution of this matter."

As soon as Lu Yanbao heard what Jiang Shang said, he stood up and walked out. This was obviously not something he should listen to. It was better to listen less, otherwise he would know too much and not know about the trouble that day.

Hu Guangming and Jiang Shang glanced at Lu Yanbao who exited, not caring, but when they turned around, Hu Guangming's face was obviously not good, but Hu Guangming knew that he was not taking it seriously, so at this time Jiang Shang Whether it was to bury him or make other demands, Hu Guangming didn't want to accept these words, otherwise he would not be able to escape safely today. valley

"What Brother Jiang said is absolutely true. Lao Hu, I really held back this time. It's my fault. Later, Lao Hu, I will apologize to Brother Jiang. It's just that I came late this time, mainly because there were so many people marching. Difficult, otherwise Lao Hu, I should have arrived a few days earlier. Hey, let’s not talk about it anymore. Let’s forget about it. Lao Hu, I brought good things to Brother Jiang. I’ll have someone deliver them to you later. come over."

Jiang Shang looked at Hu Guangming's smooth performance, and a smile slowly appeared on his cold face. After all, Jiang Shang knew this in his heart. It took both of them half a month to arrive at Wude City. Hu Guangming Being able to arrive in half a month can be regarded as a dedicated effort, but understanding is one thing, and compressing benefits is another, which cannot be discussed in the same way.

"Okay, for the sake of your good intentions this time, I won't care about your late arrival. Let's go, the two of us will have a drink."

Hearing Jiang Shang's words, Hu Guangming felt relieved. Although he understood that he would suffer a loss this time, with such huge interests in front of him, it would not matter if he suffered a loss. When the situation was under control, it would be nothing more. It's just a matter of one or two years.

"Brother Jiang, please."

Jiang Shang waved the maid away, stood up, and gave instructions to Lin Shuang'er.

"You ask the maid to prepare a banquet. I want to have two drinks with Brother Hu."

"oh……"

Lin Shuang'er was considered smart and had no intention of disobeying Jiang Shang in front of Hu Guangming. He reluctantly agreed, then got up and walked out of the lobby, while Jiang Shang and Hu Guangming walked one behind the other. I walked out of the side door of the lobby and walked all the way to the back garden. I sat down in the pavilion by the pond and looked at the plum blossoms that were beginning to bloom on the edge of the pond.

Jiang Shang didn't speak, and Hu Guangming didn't know where to start for a moment. They could only enjoy the breeze and admire the scenery in the garden.

In the silence between the two of them, the food and wine were gradually served. He waved away the maid who wanted to stay and pour the wine. Jiang Shang then looked at Hu Guangming. When Jiang Shang looked over, Hu Guangming poured a glass of wine for the two of them. Put down the flask and act like you're all ears.

"Brother Hu, all the masters of Wude City have been slaughtered. I have asked the two remaining people to maintain stability in the city. Since you are here today, you will have full authority to handle this matter. I will not interfere. , the ruins of Wudu are about to be opened, I will be in seclusion for a while, and there is another extremely important thing that needs you to handle personally, I am not worried about the others."

Hearing the solemn meaning in Jiang Shang's words, Hu Guangming's expression straightened, and he sat up straight and looked at Jiang Shang.

"I wonder what Brother Jiang needs from me? I, Old Hu, will definitely go all out."

Jiang Shang looked at the plum blossom tree in the distance, took a sip of the wine in his hand, and then his voice sounded faintly.

"While I am in seclusion, you can use my name to do things and gather all the cities in the east according to the original plan. I will give you a list of people. When the time comes, I will need you to secretly bring these people together. All of them have been arrested. If there are any troublesome ones, you can ask someone to investigate the situation. I will personally take action at that time. You must personally supervise me at this time. There must be no sloppiness. If something goes wrong, I don’t need to tell you the consequences. How about it?"

After Jiang Shang said this, Hu Guangming did not answer immediately. Instead, his eyes drooped. When he thought about it seriously, Jiang Shang was not in a hurry. He just blew the chilly breeze and admired the plum blossom tree not far away. .

Time passed by, and when Jiang Shang finished his third glass of wine, Hu Guangming stood up, saluted Jiang Shang, and said in a deep voice.

"If I can't complete this matter, I'll bring it up and see you."

Jiang Shang withdrew his gaze from the distance and turned to look at Hu Guangming who was serious.

"Okay, there are not many people on the list, only twenty-nine. You can do this together with the gathering of the four cities. Remember, there is only one requirement for this, and that is to capture alive. As long as they are alive or disabled, it doesn't matter. .”

"I understand, Brother Jiang, please rest assured."

"Sit down and talk."

Jiang Shang spoke, and Hu Guangming sat down and added some more wine to the wine glass in Jiang Shang's hand, and then stopped talking many times.

"Tell me, is there anything else?"

Seeing Jiang Shang speak, Hu Guangming stopped being coy and drank the wine in one gulp before speaking to Jiang Shang.

"Brother Jiang, I, Old Hu, don't have any big ambitions. At this time, I gave up my Sifang City and came here. I also believe in Brother Jiang's character. I would like to ask, after the eastern part stabilizes, will Brother Jiang really not want it?"

After Hu Guangming finished speaking, he felt a cold sweat on his hands. He had to ask about this matter. After all, Hu Guangming had already staked his entire fortune on this matter. If Jiang Shang wanted to take over the rights of Wude City when the matter was over, Will Hu Guangming give it to him or not?

It is better to speak out this question now than to be blinded by power and die without a burial place. However, there is a certain risk in speaking out at this time, that is, if Jiang Shang feels that Hu Guangming is not satisfied and takes action, then That's the most unjust thing.

Jiang Shang put down the wine glass in his hand, the expression on his face disappeared, and he looked at Hu Guangming.

"Brother Jiang, Lao Hu, I don't have any other intention, I just want to make sure. After all, I am afraid that I will not be able to find my position when the time comes. If the relationship between the two of us is harmed in this way, it will be the most unworthiness. So... "

Hu Guangming's hurried explanation made Jiang Shang, who had already understood Hu Guangming's meaning, not think too much. He just stood up, walked to the fence of the pavilion, and looked at the sky that was slowly starting to turn cloudy.

"Brother Hu is unfounded. Jiang doesn't care much about these powers. The cities in the eastern boundary have been gathered. You have the final say in everything. You just need to do what I say, and I will do it in the ruins of Wudu this time. After it is over, he will leave Wu Xu and go to other capitals of Jiuzhou, so there is no need for Brother Hu to worry, he should just work with peace of mind and collect treasures."

When Hu Guangming saw that Jiang Shang had seen through everything he was thinking, he couldn't sit still anymore. With a thud, his legs fell to the ground and he knelt on the ground. His tone began to choke.

"Brother Jiang, meeting you is like smoke coming out of my ancestral grave. Brother Jiang is so kind and kind that I will never forget it. Please accept my respect, Brother Jiang."

"That's enough. Although you have to do a good job in acting, it also depends on the occasion. It's just you and me here. Who are you looking like this for?"

Hu Guangming's body stiffened when he bowed down, but he still kowtowed three times before getting up. Since he had expressed his stance, there was no way he could stop just because Jiang Shang saw through it. This would only make Hu Guangming's previous efforts in vain.

"Brother Jiang is so kind and kind. I have nothing to repay Old Hu. I can only do what Brother Jiang asked me to do wholeheartedly."

Jiang Shang looked at Hu Guangming who was too involved in the drama. This man was cunning and shameless. He was so good at taking advantage of him. Jiang Shang had to look at him with admiration.

"As long as you understand, go down and hand over the matter with those two people. First, settle the affairs in the city, and then deal with the affairs in other cities. Also give the matter of Pan Jun's death a chance to ferment. It is best to let the city lords of other cities all Knowing that Pan Jun is dead, how to operate this, you and your men will work together, and when the affairs in the city are finished, deliver the treasure to my house."

"I see."

After Hu Guangming agreed, he bowed to Jiang Shang and left. Since Jiang Shang started to chase people away, Hu Guangming also understood that this was not the time for chatting. He was already late and did not take over the matter at this time. I'm afraid something will happen later.

"By the way, regarding the list, you can come over again tonight."

Jiang Shang's voice sounded behind him, causing Hu Guangming, who was thinking about how to deal with things in the city, to pause. He turned around and saluted Jiang Shang before speaking.

"Brother Jiang, don't worry, I will be here on time tonight."

Jiang Shang waved his hand and stopped talking to Hu Guangming. He just watched him leave the door of the back garden, then looked away and looked into the distance.

The capture of Wude City means that the speed at which Jiang Shang's main mission will be completed will be greatly accelerated. When Hu Guangming completes the integration of the entire east, under such a large intelligence network, whoever came to the ruins of Wudu this time will For people on the list, it would probably be extremely difficult for them to hide their figure.

And once the east is unified, it will be able to communicate with the big cities in the north and south. In this way, the people who enter the depths of the Martial Ruins are just turtles in the urn.

And with Hu Guangming taking action, with his sophistication, even if it is impossible to complete this matter perfectly, it is not far behind. During this time, Jiang Shang can not only practice with peace of mind, but also sort out the follow-up plans. After all, this way , if the plan goes well, the small heaven position of the main mission will definitely be achieved by then, then Jiang Shang will naturally rush to the middle heaven position next.

Besides, in this way, although it took a lot of time to deal with Wude City, but really speaking, this step saved him Jiang Shang an unknown amount of time, and he did not have to intercept and kill Jiang Shang everywhere. , just need to wait with peace of mind.
