During the war, there were too many dangerous missions with a near-death experience. Each family cherished their wings and were unwilling to send their own family members to participate. They were often pushed back and forth in front of Ying Jiuchuan.
But someone has to do these tasks.
Therefore, Ling Xiao, a loner and a notorious "remnant of evil cultivators" in the Northern Liang Kingdom, became the best candidate to participate in such a mission.
Almost every once in a while, someone would propose to recruit Ling Xiao, so that good things could be put to good use.
Agou said: "Fortunately you were not late this time! It would have been even more troublesome if you had delayed coming until the registration deadline!"
If Ling Xiao arrived at the front line at the right time, even Jiang Yu wouldn't be able to arbitrarily snatch people away in full view of everyone.
After all, in addition to his status as cannon fodder, Ling Xiao also has the status of a talisman maker, which is enough to trigger looting from all forces.
Then before Ling Xiao becomes cannon fodder and dies, drain him of all his value!
After listening to the introductions of the two, Gongsun Mu couldn't help but feel horrified and looked at Ling Xiao sympathetically.
It turns out that this kid's situation is even worse than mine!
Ling Xiao was indifferent, as if he didn't see the darkness of the future at all, and just chuckled: "I joined the Jiang family, wouldn't most of the dangerous tasks in the future fall into the Jiang family? Xiaoyu is putting his family into a pit of fire. Push!”
Hanshan and Agou looked at each other, and the former said in a deep voice: "Actually, we have agreed that if there is any dangerous mission, Agou and I will accompany you."
Ling Xiao's body shook slightly.
After a moment of silence, he smiled bitterly and said, "Have you forgotten what happened to Uncle Tai? Now is not the time to talk about loyalty."
Agou whimpered and said, "Don't worry, we haven't practiced in vain all these years. It's not that easy to kill us!"
Ling Xiao coughed lightly and said, "No, I'm afraid that you will hold me back and cause trouble for me..."
"Go to hell!"
Agou yelled and kicked.
Even Han Shan, who had always been mature and prudent, couldn't help it anymore and picked up the jade slips on the table and threw them.
Ling Xiao nimbly dodged and laughed.
While everyone was messing around, a ray of light suddenly came from outside the tent, and one person shouted: "Is Brother Han in there? Ancestor calls you all over!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole tent fell silent for an instant.
Hanshan and Agou both looked at Ling Xiao with worries on their faces.
At this moment, Ying Jiuchuan actually summoned him, obviously knowing the identity of the visitor.
Ling Xiao smiled casually and said: "It's really time to go, let's go."
Over there, Gongsun Mu had long been impatient with waiting and strode out.
Hanshan quickly grabbed Ling Xiao and whispered: "Rabbit, you don't have to say anything later. Xiaoyu will help with everything. Especially in front of the ancestor, you must never lose your etiquette."
Agou also looked worried.
They both knew that the order to kill Xuan Jizi was issued by Ying Jiuchuan, and they both knew Ling Xiao's hatred for Ying Jiuchuan.
At this moment, the two of them were afraid that Ling Xiao would make arrogant remarks when he arrived at Dayingkou and offend their ancestor.
"Don't worry, I'm measured."
Ling Xiao said.
Of course he hated Ying Jiuchuan to death, but he was the ancestor of Jindan, so he couldn't do anything.
He could only comfort himself, knowing that Ying Jiuchuan only had a few more years to live anyway.
I can't kill you, but I can outlast you!
…
The inner city is not big, and after a while, they arrived at the Chinese army's tent.
Even before we arrived, we saw a huge crowd of people.
The Qi Refining monks did not have the opportunity to enter the tent to watch the ceremony, but they also held a banquet outside the tent, drinking and gambling, and it was very lively.
Along the way, you can see drunkards from time to time.
There were also male and female monks holding hands, flirting as if no one was around, and even quietly left the table and walked to the tent.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile.
It's right to think about it. After fighting for so long, it's hard to catch a big party, so everyone naturally has to indulge.
As he approached the middle tent, Ling Xiao felt palpitations for no reason.
In front, Gongsun Mu, who was in a hurry, had already opened the curtain and walked in, but Ling Xiao suddenly paused and looked at the huge Chinese army tent.
There, the top forces in the entire Northern Liang Kingdom gathered.
Compared with this big tent, I am too small.
"Rabbit, what's wrong?" Agou asked concernedly.
Ling Xiao calmed down, shook his head, and continued walking.
Lift the curtain and step in!
For a moment, Ling Xiao only felt that the vast power of this huge world was suddenly pressing towards him. He seemed to be hit head-on by an invisible heavy hammer. Venus was popping up in front of his eyes, and his body was shaking involuntarily.
But after only shaking for a moment, Ling Xiao stood still and looked ahead coldly.
The huge tent was now densely packed with people, looking at him with scrutiny, curiosity, suspicion, and contempt...
Ling Xiao let out a breath and fixed his eyes on the skinny old man in the front.
That skinny figure is like a majestic mountain, inadvertently releasing the infinite momentum like a mountain!
Zifengtai is the contemporary ancestor of Jindan and the only patron saint of Beiliang Kingdom!
Eagle Jiuchuan!
Ling Xiao's expression remained unchanged as he slowly walked to Gongsun Mu and bowed his hands: "See you, ancestor."
Ying Jiuchuan took a look at Ling Xiao. His wrinkled old face was as expressionless as tree bark and asked, "Are you Ling Xiao?"
"Yes." Ling Xiao replied.
Ying Jiuchuan waved his hand.
Ling Xiao bowed again, then retreated to the door and stood still.
Although he found a small corner, everyone's attention never left him.
On the other side, Ying Jiuchuan said some words of encouragement to Gongsun Mu, and then the celebration continued.
There was a lot of drinking and drinking at the scene, and the things they talked about were inseparable from the current war.
Hanshan and Agou disappeared somewhere, and Jiang Yu was nowhere to be seen.
Ling Xiao stood alone by the door, staring at his feet, like an old monk in meditation, completely isolated from the surroundings.
I don’t know how long it took, but a voice reached my ears.
"Are you Ling Xiao?"
Ling Xiao slowly raised his head and saw several people stepping in front of him, looking down at him like they were condescending, with gloomy eyes.
Ling Xiao's eyes fell on the patterns on the shoulders of these people.
He had seen this pattern just now in Jiang's camp.
"Yes, hello." Ling Xiao greeted.
These people were all foundation-building practitioners. After looking Ling Xiao up and down, they all snorted coldly.
"I heard that you will work for my Jiang family from now on. Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you dare to be lazy at all, we will report it to our ancestors and expel you!"
Several people warned, then turned and left.
"Jiang Yu has become more and more outrageous in recent years, and he actually put such a person in!"
"It's just an excuse to make friends with evil cultivators!"
"Don't say that, Xiaoyu must have been deceived..."
Listening to the mutterings of these people, Ling Xiao couldn't help but darken his face.
He also said that the Jiang family would not embarrass him, which was obviously wrong!
Just when he was criticizing Jiang Yu for not having any integrity, his eyes suddenly focused on someone in the tent.
After being in a daze on the spot for a moment, Ling Xiao finally stepped forward, bowed to the ground, and said respectfully: "Junior Ling Xiao, meet my wife!"
