Chapter 276: Borrowing Troops and Seeking Profit

"Brother Lu, why are you here?"

Yang Jian dragged the Roaring Sky Dog to take two quick steps, unconsciously overjoyed, and the twelve commanders followed quickly, all saluting the high-crowned Daoist.

The surname Lu is good friends with Yang Jian, and he can be recognized by the Roaring Sky Dog at a glance in the vast sea of people...... Except for Lu Chunyang, there is no second person.

"Haha," Lu Chunyang laughed a few times, "I have news that you are a demon here, I am a starry night, and I flew directly here from Nanzhou, as soon as I landed, I watched you walk your dog on the street, demon!"

Yang Jian smiled awkwardly, but asked a little puzzled: "I only arrived here yesterday, why did the news spread so quickly." ”

Lu Chunyang patted Yang Jian's arm and said with a smile: "Don't forget your identity, the marshal of Heavenly Court, the disciple of Yuxu Palace, and the famous Erlang Zhenjun." No one is watching you wherever you go?"

"Then Brother Lu, do you know where I was in the previous month?" Yang Jian smiled incomprehensibly, realizing that Lu Chunyang couldn't guess that he was in the Wuchen Realm.

Lu Chunyang blinked: "Aren't you thrown into the legendary Chaos Bell by Kong Xuan? ”

"Don't make fun of me. ”

Yang Jian remembered what happened before, and shook his head with a wry smile, but he didn't say anything about Tianyan Daozi to Lu Chunyang.

Yang Jian didn't tell Master about this, and Master didn't ask about it. As the saying goes, the master leads the door, and the cultivation is in the individual, and Yang Jian can't always ask the master to share his worries and solve problems for himself.

What's more, the Chaos Bell is too involved, and Yang Jian doesn't dare to pull the master into this cause and effect.

Lu Chunyang said: "Where are you going?"

"Go and meet the city lord of Meicheng," Yang Jian waved his hand, cast a mysterious method, and used the mysterious qi to hide the whereabouts of their group, making a gesture of please, Lu Chunyang took advantage of the situation and walked side by side with Yang Jian.

"Mei Guisoul, this woman, if she has less obsession in her heart, she will also be a piece of jade, but it's a pity that ......"

Lu Chunyang wanted to speak and stopped, shook his head and sighed, and said to Yang Jian gently: "I am an old friend of Mei Gui's father, and when he died in Meishan, I failed to save him. Therefore, as long as there is a war in Meishan, I will come here to help. ”

"I see," Yang Jian nodded, looking at Lu Chunyang with a smile.

Lu Chunyang coughed, avoided Yang Jian's gaze, and whispered, "I did receive a letter from Mei Gui Soul and asked me to come here." The people of Meicheng are worried that after you take Meishan, brother, you will occupy Meishan. ”

"If the demon clan occupies Meishan, they can also mobilize troops and spill blood to take Meishan back. But if you occupy Meishan, how dare they move troops?"

"You tell me the truth, what are you planning to do with this Meishan?"

This old brother turned out to be a 'lobbyist' found by the city lord of Meicheng.

Yang Jian pretended to be displeased, Lu Chunyang looked embarrassed, and apologized to Yang Jian again and again, "Brother, don't be surprised, it's really not easy for a woman to support this huge Meicheng with Mei Guisoul, and I can't ignore my old love." ”

"I'm not the bandit who snatched the money," Yang Jian twitched the corners of his mouth, "Although Meishan is the garrison place that Heavenly Court has given me, my territory can't be without a few walled cities." I'll draw the place where I'm garrisoned, and how they like to live in the rest of the place, what's my business?"

Lu Chunyang was overjoyed when he heard this, and slapped Yang Jian's shoulder, but his entire arm was sore.

"Shhh...... Your mana is strong again?"

Yang Jian held the dog with his hands behind his back, raised his head and said lightly: "Not much, seven or eighty." ”

Lu Chunyang rolled his eyes, and almost drew his sword to ask for advice, he really couldn't get used to seeing such a proud face of a certain true monarch.

When Yang Jian is so unserious, it is really rare.

Without further ado, let's get down to business.

Put away the roaring dog and tell it not to inhale demonic energy, Yang Jian and Lu Chunyang went to the Meicheng City Lord's Mansion together.

What Yang Jian said before, Lu Chunyang naturally informed the city lord of Meicheng by voice, and he didn't know if it dispelled the doubts of the city lord of Meicheng.

As soon as I arrived at the city lord's mansion, I listened to the noise of gongs and drums, firecrackers, and the ground was covered with broken jade and scattered gold, and the soldiers on both sides bowed their heads to greet each other.

Stepping on the steps, I heard a gentle and delicate female voice from the gate: "The true monarch is coming, and it is rude not to go out of the city to welcome him." In the previous retreat practice, if the hospitality was not good, please forgive me. ”

In the middle of the words, a woman in a blue dress, like stepping on the rippling water waves, stepped out of the mansion and owed Yang Jian Yingying.

Yang Jian returned the favor, looked at the woman a few times, and found that the other party was beautiful, but he did not have half of the femininity, but he was heroic, and he must be quite majestic when he did not smile.

This should be the 'senior' who began to practice at the end of antiquity, although the Tao is not deep, but Yang Jian does not despise it.

"Yesterday, I heard that the city lord is a strange woman who does not let her eyebrows go, and today I can see it, it is really extraordinary. ”

"Where, the true monarch is the dragon and phoenix among the people, obviously so handsome and chic, but there are also big means to penetrate the heavens and the earth, the little woman has been yearning for a long time but has no chance to get acquainted, today, there is finally this fate. ”

Mei Gui said softly, there was a lot of kindness in her eyes, and when she saw Yang Jian, she did seem to have some 'yearning in her heart'.

My Fair Gentleman, Lady is so good.

"Ahem, ahem!" Lu Chunyang coughed dryly.

"I saw Zhenjun watching it closely, but I almost forgot Uncle Lu and saw Uncle Lu. ”

Mei Gui turned sideways, and there were more than a dozen generals behind him who went out with Mei Linhan, all of whom were the generals who had a banquet with Yang Jian yesterday, Yao Gonglin and Zhang Boshi were also among them, and they bowed their hands to Yang Jian and Lu Chunyang.

Zhang Boshi shouted at the top of his voice: "Zhenjun!"

It was frightened that Yao Gonglin and several other generals were in good spirits.

"I've seen Zhenjun, I've seen Senior Lu!"

Yang Jian glanced at Lu Chunyang with a smile, Lu Chunyang knew that Yang Jian was taking care of his face, and said with a straight face: "It's all exempt, my generation of monks don't talk about so many rules, although you are leading the troops to fight now, don't forget your duty as a monk." ”

The duty of a monk should be the practice of practice.

Mei Gui Soul said softly: "Zhenjun, Uncle Lu, hurry up and please come inside, don't stand here." ”

Yang Jian and Lu Chunyang stepped side by side and entered the Mei Mansion, and exchanged pleasantries and compliments for a while, which made Yang Jian feel a little uncomfortable.

At the banquet, two tables were set up today, on the main table, Lu Chunyang and Yang Jian were guests, Mei Gui Soul was the master, and the three Daluo masters in the city were mentioned earlier, Zhijian, Guo Shen, and Mei Linhan were accompanied, and Yao Gonglin, who had a 'close' relationship with Yang Jian, was also called to the main table and accompanied him to drink and have fun.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, singing and dancing, it is already noon.

Mei Gui Soul stared at Yang Jian with a pair of phoenix eyes, and finally cut to the point, "Zhenjun came this time, but he wants to borrow troops to level the demon?"

The word 'borrow' really made Lu Chunyang and Yang Jian frown at the same time, and the faces of the generals during the banquet changed slightly.

Lu Chunyang was about to speak, but Yang Jian made a look and let this old brother look at it.

Yang Jian said: "Yes, I came here to borrow the soldiers of Meicheng, I don't know how many soldiers and horses the city lord can send to me to fight against the demon of Meishan?"

Mei Gui Soul chuckled and bowed her head, and said: "The allusion of the true monarch to eliminate the demon and defend the road, there have long been rumors in the flood wilderness, and today I have come to my Meicheng to borrow troops, how dare my Meicheng sons dare to fight?"

Halfway?

"City Lord!" Zhang Boshi, who had a beard, stood up and glared at Mei Guishen, "That's not what I said before!"

Another tall and thin general stood up and arched his hand: "City Lord, if only half of the people are out, who are we waiting for without fighting?

Mei Gui Soul seemed to know this, and smiled silently, but Mei Lin Han muttered a few times and said: "Do you want to fight against the water? If all the soldiers and horses are pressed up, there is no one to defend in the city, and the demon soldiers are attacking, how should these hundreds of thousands of mortals and those monks who are not cultivated enough protect themselves?"

Another general asked rhetorically: "Isn't there a big array in this city! How many times has the demon clan attacked, and when has the big array been broken?"

It seems that these generals of Meicheng do not agree with the statement that the city lord and the deputy city lord suddenly changed.

At that moment, as soon as you say a word, half of the generals opened their mouths to persuade Mei Guisoul, wanting Mei Guisoul to take back half of the borrowed troops that he said earlier, but their army came out together.

Yao Gonglin sighed in his heart and said in a deep voice: "The true monarch wants to recover Meishan and use Meishan as a garrison place, while we want to recover the homeland and let Meishan return to its roots." These two things are one thing, and together they are mutually beneficial......"

"Gonglin is talking, why did he start to look at outsiders?" Mei Lin Han said indifferently, and Yao Gonglin, who was blocked, was speechless, and stopped speaking in a muffled voice.

Yang Jian wrote down these speakers one by one, there were nine in total.

Yang Jian said with a smile: "It seems that all the generals have the heart to participate in the war, but the defense of this city is indeed not negligent. Half of the city's soldiers and horses, just chasing and intercepting the deserters of the demon clan, it is enough. I will also repair a letter and ask the master of this sect to come and help. ”

Hearing this, the generals looked inexplicably excited, and Lu Chunyang's complexion also turned slightly.

Lu Chunyang said: "I also repair a book, to all the major sects in the Central Shenzhou, it is a righteous thing to eliminate demons, and I can also make some efforts." ”

"Thank you, big brother," Yang Jian used his spare eyes to collect Mei Linhan's expression, and found that the latter was very calm, and he was not as out of shape as yesterday.

Did you make a mistake? Is there anything wrong with this Merlin Han?

That's it, just look at it.

"Okay!" Mei Linhan suddenly slapped the armrest of the seat, stood up and shouted, "This gathering of heroes will definitely wipe out the Meishan monster!"

But Mei Linhan's words changed, and he seemed to smile at Yang Jian with some embarrassment, and said: "But as the saying goes, my brother still has to settle accounts, I don't know what benefits Zhenjun wants to give us if he borrows troops." ”

As soon as these words came out, the generals showed shame, and Zhang Boshi's neck was even more red with anger, and he stared at Mei Linhan.

"Okay! Okay!" Lu Chunyang suddenly pushed the cup directly, got up and glared at the deputy city lord of Meicheng, "You invited me over last night, it's not such a rhetoric! If you don't give me an explanation today, before eliminating the demon, let's settle down first!"

Mei Linhan didn't expect that Yang Jian was not provoked, but the lobbyist he invited changed his face.

"Senior Lu, you ......"

"I'm asking you city lords. ”

Mei Gui Soul closed her eyes and sighed, "Uncle, returning to the soul is only for the future, please be considerate of my uncle." ”

"I don't care about this matter today! I really don't have any left of my face left by you!" Lu Chunyang snorted, he really had the urge to draw his sword, sighed with a cold face, and was about to leave.

But Lu Chunyang had just taken half a step, but Yang Jian pulled his sleeve.
