Chapter 1554 Tianshuang (Part 2)

Since Chu Li practiced the Tianxing Cave Illusion Technique, he was able to pass through the formation and directly stepped into the back garden of the palace.

He Dayuan Jingzhi had already seen an old man pacing with his hands behind his back in the back garden, looking at the surrounding flowers and plants, with a calm and calm expression, playing with a jade ball in his hands behind his back.

There was a glint of light flowing in the jade ball, as if there was an internal force coming in and out, and the glint shining on him seemed to be a strange aura.

Chu Li took a look at the pair of jade balls, they were treasures, and they were very effective in repairing the body, but the strange thing was that the old man's cultivation base was not high, he was barely a master of heaven and earth.

He turned around sharply, his eyes burning like electricity.

He was only of medium build, with slightly bent legs, a square face, and a sharp mustache. In particular, his eyes were like golden eagles looking down, and their brilliance shone breathtakingly.

This is not the look in his eyes caused by his cultivation, but from the release of evil spirit.

Chu Li was surprised. It is reasonable to say that after retiring, the evil spirit should be restrained inward, and he would no longer be so aggressive and exuberant. Obviously this is his nature, and it cannot be compensated by his cultivation.

He thought about it for so long, but it was only for a moment.

Hou Zhengming scanned their faces with scorching and menacing eyes, but he didn't rush to speak, his eyes finally fell on Sun Mingyue, hesitantly said: "Saint?"

Sun Mingyue nodded lightly, took off the white veil, revealing an unbelievably beautiful face, quickly put on the veil again, and bowed with fists: "I have seen Lord Hou."

"The holy lady is here, and the old man is welcome." Hou Zhengming cupped his fists and looked at Chu Li.

"Chu Li." Chu Li cupped his fists and said, "I've seen Lord Hou."

"Chu Li?" Hou Zhengming looked puzzled and looked him over carefully: "Could it be that Chu Li who killed Emperor Da Fu?"

Chu Li nodded and smiled: "It's right here."

"Disrespect, disrespect!" Hou Zhengming's face turned serious, he clasped his fists and said, "Young Master Chu is truly delightful, please hurry up!"

He turned around and went to the small kiosk next to him. Soon a maid came forward to serve tea, and several guards loomed around. After a while of agitation, he calmed down, did not act rashly, and hostility emerged.

Chu Li and Sun Mingyue broke into the back garden directly, silently, and the guards didn't notice at all. This was really a humiliation to them. When they didn't exist, even though their martial arts were much worse, they still felt unconvinced.

Hou Zhengming waited for Chu Li and Sun Mingyue to take a sip, put down the teacup, and said with a smile: "The saint is very busy with all kinds of affairs, why come to this old man who has nothing to do?"

"My lord, we want to hear you talk about Zhong Wancheng." Sun Mingyue said: "I think the lord has heard about it. Zhong Wancheng personally led the troops to force us to leave."

"Alas..." Hou Zhengming smiled wryly: "The situation is not good, but unfortunately the old man speaks lightly now, and his words are useless, and his old arms and legs can't go into battle to kill the enemy!"

"Your Highness is in good health." Sun Mingyue said, "You can go to the battlefield again."

"My heart is already old, so I'm not fit to fight again." Hou Zhengming shook his head: "If you go up again, you will only hurt your subordinates, and the general will be incompetent and exhaust the entire army. If Marshal Zhong leads the troops himself, it may be the last time, so he will definitely do his best. , so we are more or less fortunate, and Dali's combat power is still a bit short."

Sun Mingyue said indifferently: "Zhong Wancheng is very energetic, and there will be no problem in leading the army for another hundred years."

Hou Zhengming was stunned: "According to what I know, Marshal Zhong was seriously injured once when he was young, and the root cause of the disease has fallen, and his health has not been very good."

"It was cured two years ago." Sun Mingyue said, "Now I am in good health."

Hou Zhengming's face changed slightly, and Lying Silkworm's thick eyebrows frowned.

Chu Li was looking at his mind with a big round mirror, and saw Zhong Wancheng's appearance.

With a chubby appearance and a simple and honest smile, he looks like a rustic farmer. Walking on the road, no one will believe that he is the commander-in-chief of the first army, the military god of Daqiu.

Chu Li also saw the conversation between Zhong Wancheng and Hou Zhengming, teaching Hou Zhengming riding skills, and charging into battle with Zhong Wancheng.

He could feel Hou Zhengming's gratitude and respect for Zhong Wancheng, as well as a trace of helplessness and sadness.

Hou Zhengming respected and appreciated Zhong Wancheng, without Zhong Wancheng he would have died, and Zhong Wancheng had saved his life.

But Zhong Wancheng had to deal with Dali. As a Dali person, he had to protect his parents, relatives, friends, and hometown folks, so he could only leave Zhong Wancheng and return to Dali to use what he learned from Zhong Wancheng in military training. This method trained the Dali cavalry to resist the Daqiu cavalry.

If there is no Dali iron cavalry, Dali has already been ravaged countless times by Daqiu. The places where the cavalry pass are like locusts, and there are no chickens and dogs left. I don't know how many people in Dali will die under the iron hooves of Daqiu's iron cavalry.

Hou Zhengming retired from the court at a young age and no longer served as a director. One is his poor health, and the other is driven by this conflicting struggle. Since he has trained the Dali cavalry, he doesn't want to meet Zhong Wancheng again on the battlefield. , fighting each other.

Hou Zhengming sighed with a complicated expression.

Hearing that Zhong Wancheng recovered, he was both happy and sad. He was happy that Zhong Wancheng was healthy and could live for a long time, but sad that the people of Dali would suffer again. If Zhong Wancheng was gone in Daqiu, the two countries would surely be able to live in peace. coexist.

Chu Li said, "Which guards are around Zhong Wancheng?"

Hou Zhengming was startled, his face changed slightly: "Are you going to assassinate him?"

Sun Mingyue said: "Since we can't kill him, if we injure him severely, we can stop this great war and reduce the casualties of countless people."

"This..." Hou Zhengming sighed: "It's very difficult. In the army formation, you can't exert 30% of your skills, and the top experts in the army guard him too tightly, otherwise he would have been assassinated. There may be hundreds of assassinations, if not a thousand, and none of them were successful."

"Then you have to try." Chu Li said.

Sun Mingyue said: "Aside from the military formation, what other treasures are there?"

"As far as I know, Marshal Zhong is wearing a robe of Tianshuang. The sword is hard to hurt, and Zhong Shuai's martial arts are so high that I can't compare with him. Even if you are in person, you may not be able to defeat him." Hou Zhengming road.

Chu Li nodded.

He saw Zhong Wancheng's cultivation base from Hou Zhengming's mind, it was indeed unfathomable, obviously he had cultivated some kind of secret technique, and it was extremely difficult for a master in the army to cultivate to his level.

"Tianshuang Baoyi..." Sun Mingyue nodded lightly.

She was thoughtful, thinking about the news of the Tianshuang Treasure Clothes. It is said that it was passed down from the ancient Tianshuang Sect. It is made of unknown material.

With this precious garment, one cannot be invincible on the battlefield. If one falls off a horse and is trampled by a group of horses, no matter how powerful the precious garment is, it will not be able to protect him, and he will be turned into flesh.

Possessing this precious garment can only prevent him from being plotted against and assassinated by cold arrows.

Chu Li said: "Since he has Tianshuang Baoyi, his guards should not be so strict, right?"

Hou Zhengming shook his head: "Very few people know that he is wearing Tianshuang treasure clothes, and he also avoids others to know, so the guards are extremely strict, and at least twenty top masters are kept around him as guards."

"Twenty top experts..." Sun Mingyue looked at Chu Li.

Chu Li said: "Try it."
