At noon, the fog on the big swamp had long since been dispersed by the high sun, finally revealing its appearance.
Looking at the sparkling water on the water, Dongfangji turned around and said, "Chasing?" Although he was a senior brother, after two battles, Dongfangji gradually understood that knowledge and action are two different things, and there is still a big difference between chess and actual combat. Big difference. Wu Gen's performance in the battle was enough for him to look at this newcomer who had been hospitalized for less than a year.
"Forget it, in such a big lake, the underwater terrain is not as familiar to the thieves. If you chase him, you will be afraid of falling into his trap." Wu Gen looked at the place where Xueyong finally disappeared and threw a stone from a distance, "First Save people."
The two turned around and ran towards the place where the shuttle landed. Wu Gen asked Luan Ming to control the shuttle to fly far in the air to alert the surrounding area to prevent the thieves from raiding again.
Dongfang Ji's shuttle landed on a slope on the shore. The bow of the boat was deeply embedded in the soil, and there was a striking knife mark on the hull. These shuttles were originally built for the Forbidden Army. Not only were they made of solid materials, but they were also covered with a layer of formations. But under the power of Xueyong's sword, it was almost broken.
Fortunately, the people on board were not seriously injured and suffered only minor injuries and shock.
After a while, the enemies coming for reinforcements from both directions were killed. Worried, Luo Bing sent people to search the two islands again, but they were all empty.
On a rock halfway up the mountain, Luo Bing sat with a face full of sadness.
Master Jian threw a hot stone at himself this time. He originally thought he was just going to kill some bandits and thieves, but he didn't expect to encounter such monsters, injuring nearly half of the students and also involving the guards.
If it was not done well, death would be a trivial matter. If it caused a dispute with the garrison clan, according to Zhao Guo's habit of putting the overall situation first, he might have to push himself out to sacrifice the flag to calm the resentment of the garrison clan.
"It's so annoying, it's so annoying." Luo Bing was like a little daughter, her feet kept tapping the ground. Suddenly, Wu Gen, Zhang Rong, and Ruyu were seen sneaking out of a house from a distance, each carrying a package on their backs.
Hum, Luo Bing's face dropped. Well, a dignified student from the Shenwu Academy actually did what a gentleman in Liang Shang did.
"Wu Gen, get over here." Wu Gen was about to sneak into another room with Zhang Rong and Ruyu when Luo Bing's thunderous voice rang in his ears. He was so frightened that he subconsciously ran away with the two of them.
After running for two steps, Wu Gen realized that he was cleaning the battlefield, so he had nothing to be afraid of. Handing the package on his body to Ruyu, he looked around and came to Luo Bing's side, "Housemaster, just now, the boy is leading people to search for possible clues left by the thief. I wonder if the hospital master has any orders."
"Come on." Luo Bing stretched out his finger and poked Wu Gen's forehead hard. He poked Wu Gen twice. Unconsciously, he jumped up and stepped heavily on Wu Gen's feet.
Wu Gen staggered in pain and almost fell down the stone, "Master, you are abusing lynching."
"What about abuse of lynching? I'm a woman. Even if I sue the officials, I won't be afraid. I'd like to teach my own disciples a lesson, but some people would dare to say otherwise." Luo Bing put her hands on her hips and looked at Wu Gen majestically.
"It's no wonder that a woman can't be embarrassed even if she doesn't have shoes on her feet all day long. No wonder she can't get married." Wu Gen didn't dare to contradict him. He couldn't beat him again and again, so he could only mutter in a low voice.
"What did you say?" Luo Bing raised her eyebrows, her chest rose and fell sharply, and began to roll up her sleeves, "Believe it or not, I will accept you tonight."
Wu Gen plopped down on the ground, with his limbs stretched out in a big character shape, his head turned to one side, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was letting you take whatever he wanted.
"We lost, how could there be such a shameless person?" Luo Bing reached out and pulled the green gourd from Wu Gen's waist, and took a big gulp of wine.
Wu Gen quickly got up, just joking, maybe this big girl would really dare to carry him and throw him on the bed.
"Wu Gen, you are always so smart, how can you play this game next time? These madmen from Tiandaomen do such things that are against family ethics. If we don't pursue them, it will definitely lead to disaster." Luo Bing shook his head in annoyance and said He sat down on the ground and shook the long hair back of his head fiercely.
Wu Gen was a little dizzy at the sight of the other person's chest. He quickly squatted down and sighed, "Master, just now I really went to look for clues about the Tiandao Sect. This island is obviously the center of the Tiandao Sect. I
They suddenly made a surprise attack, and because the water was isolated, it was difficult for the thieves to escape, so they might find some evidence. "
Luo Bing held her chin with her hands, her fair face was distorted by the squeeze, and she looked sad, "Wu Gen, do you think these people can't live a peaceful life? They have to engage in these weird tricks and take risks."
"What else can we do? There is no way out." Wu Gen smiled bitterly, "A nobleman like you is dressed in luxurious clothes and extravagant. How can you know the suffering of the people below.
Some people go to Tiandaomen because they can no longer survive. There are also those who are dissatisfied with the status quo. Although they have the means, they have no way to advance. As time went by, it was inevitable that people would feel resentful and unjust, so they coerced many people into making trouble. However, the official family was powerful after all, so they took a sideways approach. "
Luo Bing rubbed his temples and felt helpless, "I have heard of these things before, but I didn't expect that they have become so difficult to control. By the way, you know those crow-faced people."
Wu Gen secretly sighed in his heart. After all, he could not hide the fact that he went to Xingluo Plain with Zhao Ling from others, so he had to respond: "It is true that we know each other. These crow-faced people are all from the Zhengling Alliance. And I have also met their leader. If I hadn't been involved in something at the beginning, I wouldn't have been the leader of the Zhengling Alliance."
"How can we get the Zhengling Alliance to stop participating in Zhao's affairs?"
"It's difficult. The resentment of the garrison will not fade away in a day. Several countries must join hands to accept the garrison, no longer treat them as foreigners, and provide more help. Otherwise, a Zhengling Alliance will be killed, and there will be various other Various alliances appear one after another."
Luo Bing sighed, but was speechless for a while. "Forget it, these things are not something we can worry about. The top priority is to eradicate the Tiandao Sect. You can search for clues first. I have asked people to notify the local area and take over the island to prevent the Tiandao Sect from coming back. Before that, I still have to be stationed on the island." He said and waved his hand slightly tiredly.
Wu Gen agreed and hurried to find Zhang Rong and others.
After some searching, sure enough, the distribution of Tiandao Sect was found on a corpse in a house. Looking at the silk picture that was more than a foot long, everyone looked a little solemn.
There is no such thing as a main altar in Tiandao Sect. There are more than a dozen small strongholds scattered here and there. Some of them have even penetrated into Daxia Kingdom and Xingluo Plain. There is no obvious priority between them.
Luo Bing was also scratching his head as to how to fight this. In any case, he was only responsible for the territory of Zhao State, leaving the rest to that old fox Jian Xing to worry about.
The group rested on the island and waited for the local government to send someone to take over.
At night, in a house with flickering candlelight, everyone from Wu Gen's team was here. Even the injured Mu Yun was carried over.
Wu Genwei sat on a chair, glanced at the people with doubtful expressions, and said seriously: "Everyone, we are summoned here today not for anything else, but because some people will shrink from the battle today."
Several people looked at each other, intentionally or unintentionally, at Su Jianyu sitting in the corner, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little solemn.
"Wu Gen." Su Jianyu stood up angrily, "Yes, I was a little mishandled today, but I can't be blamed for all the blame. Didn't the Tiandao Sect fall down in the end? Why are you still so aggressive and biting? Don’t let go.” He said and walked away.
Wu Gen narrowed his eyes and said, "Ruyu." Ruyu's strong body moved toward the door, folding his arms and staring at Su Jianyu expressionlessly.
"What do you want to do, Wu Gen? You are just a middle-aged person, but you also want to punish a noble person. Do you have the qualifications?"
"No." Wu Gen replied simply and neatly: "According to the laws of the Zhao Kingdom, anyone below the middle age who disobeys the nobles will be whipped fifty times and sent to the army. As for killing the nobles, it is a capital crime and will cost you your head. I dare not."
The people present also looked relaxed, fearing that this matter would become too tense and hurt the harmony. After all, everyone was assigned to a temporary group, so there was no need to be too serious.
"But I don't dare, it dares." Wu Gen stood up and took out a silver whip, "This was given by Master Luo before leaving. He gave his personal instructions. If anyone disobeys the order and retreats without authorization, He shall be whipped."
"Everyone, although we are all temporarily drawn up this time, it is no different from the military going into battle. Discipline is the most important thing in the art of war. A country without discipline will be overthrown, and an army without discipline will be attacked. This sudden attack
If there are no rules for such a powerful enemy, and everyone will act as he pleases and shrink from battle, how can he win, and how can he dare to entrust his back to others. "
"Mu Yun was seriously injured today. It was certainly due to the fierceness of the enemy, but if you, Su Jianyu, could have provided timely support, there is no chance that you would have escaped this disaster. If that's the case, then that's it. The enemy is ahead, and even Zhang Rong's cultivation level is still shallow. You can fight bravely and kill the enemy, but you, Su Jianyu, are so frightened that you abandon your robe and don't care. How can you win people's hearts if you are not punished like this?"
As he said that, Wu Gen slapped the silver whip on the table. He had already disliked this little girl, so don't think that he didn't dare to do it because he was a woman.
Zhang Rong hid in the corner and shrank his neck. Don't worry, why did Wu Gen get him in? You know, today I just ran a little less than Su Jianyu.
Everyone else had complicated expressions after hearing Wu Gen Yitong's impassioned speech. Indeed, if there is a teammate who is greedy for life and fear of death, wouldn't he be putting himself in danger? They are all students, why can you, Su Jianyu, run away?
"I...my magical weapon was damaged, and it is very difficult to replace it." Su Jianyu had tears in her eyes, and started to talk nonsense in panic. As the eldest daughter in the family, she has been supported by stars like the moon since she was a child, but she has never been so wronged.
"Absurd." Wu Gen was furious, which shocked everyone present. "Speaking of magic weapons, why could Hu Jia use them decisively without hesitation? Is it possible that a small magic weapon is worth more than a human life? precious.
Su Jianyu, could it be that our lives are worse than a few broken swords in your eyes? I'll give you two choices. One is to go find Master Luo yourself and leave the team. The second is to be willing to be punished and behave accordingly. After saying that, he waved his hand and signaled Ruyu to get out of the way.
Su Jianyu was silent for a long time, then suddenly bit her lips, suppressed her tears, raised her head and stared at Wu Gen, "Wu Gen, if you are wrong, you are wrong, I should be punished."
Wu Gen couldn't help but be speechless. Tonight, he had beaten one up and praised one and belittled that one. He really didn't want to punish Su Jianyu, but just wanted to drive her away. Unexpectedly, this arrogant woman was also a bit fierce and would rather Even if punished, he is unwilling to leave.
But now that we have reached this point, it is impossible not to fight. Let me do it myself, forget it, I really think that the laws of the State of Zhao are vegetarian, and if someone reports it later, I won't chop off my hand.
In desperation, he was about to tell Ruyu to take action. Seeing his eager eyes and palms like cattail leaf fans, Wu Gen shrank his neck. Don't risk anyone's life. He turned to Hu Jia and said, "Hu Jia, this whip is yours." "Come on, it's your first offense to read Su Jianyu, ten lashes will suffice."
Hu Jia looked horrified, and just when he was about to refuse, Wu Gen had already pressed the whip firmly into his hand, turned around and left the house.
The others also understood when they saw this, and came outside the house one after another.
"You...you guys." Hu Jia had ten thousand camels running through his heart, and he had beaten Wu Gen to death a thousand times. Well, they all ran away. Why did such an offending thing happen to me?
