That night, Qingshi, Duan Wutian and Chen Tianye were drinking in their team's tent, discussing ways to deal with Luo Duli while drinking.
Qingshi knew that just this afternoon, Luo Duli submitted the identity review report of the new recruits of the Forward Battalion to the ninth elder Ya Shi, and reported Qingshi's black record, saying that his and Duan Chen's identities were suspicious, and that they were the only ones in the entire Forward Battalion. Three are suspicious.
Of course, this was revealed to Qingshi privately by Anfu. According to Anfu, in fact, many of the new soldiers in the forward camp have dirty records of one kind or another, and there are even some suspects wanted by local lords. Originally, Those who come to serve as soldiers are all desperadoes, and no one will seriously examine them.
But Luo Duli, who was always fond of making small reports, reported to the Ninth Elder for nothing, obviously targeting Qingshi deliberately.
Since the matter was specially reported to the Ninth Elder, the Ninth Elder would naturally take it more seriously. Therefore, Anfu, who seemed to be inseparable from Luo Duli, told Qingshi to prepare him mentally to deal with the Ninth Elder's personal review.
"This guy is really hateful!" Duan Wutian drank down the wine in his glass and said bitterly, "Otherwise, I will do it tonight!"
"No, Brother Qi," Qingshi said slowly while playing with the jade cup in his hand, "It's easy to do it, but in this way, the murderer will have to be traced in the military camp, and won't our suspicions become even greater?"
"It's really not good to attack in secret." Chen Tianye touched his upper lip out of habit and found that his beard was gone. He couldn't help but put down his hand angrily and said, "During the competition on the school field tomorrow, Qingshi, you dared him to fight with you and pretended to kill him by mistake. It is definitely better for him to fail in a martial arts contest in front of everyone than to be assassinated."
"What a fart!" Duan Wutian said, "Assassination can be carried out without any evidence. Killing him in public, doesn't this arouse more suspicion?"
"What are you afraid of?" Chen Tianye said, "The three of us have never shown our faces in Shenmu Continent. Who knows our details? We are not afraid of investigation, Qingshi, right?"
"I'm not afraid of checking," Qingshi said, "They won't be able to find anything for a while. Bald Ming happened many years ago, and it's difficult to contact us again. However, if we want to help Baiyun City, If there is something, then we should not attract too much attention from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, otherwise, it will be difficult for us to handle it under their close surveillance. The top priority is not to do Luo Duli, but to find a way to make the Ninth Elder wrong. We are too suspicious."
"Isn't it possible to use soul magic?" Chen Tianye said, "You can even defeat big demons like Kun and Asu, but you can't deal with Luo Duli?"
"No," Qingshi said, "Luo Duli wants to strangle me to death. He is so defensive about me that I have no chance at all."
"Where is the Ninth Elder?" Chen Tianye said, "Can we capture him?"
"No way," Qingshi said, "I'm afraid his cultivation level is no worse than A Kun and Asu. Moreover, since Luo Duli has sued us, he should be wary of me, so I can't do anything about him. Try it easily.”
"Then..." Duan Wutian took off his hat and scratched his bald head, and suddenly said, "Why don't we sue him for the black crime? If he can sue us, why can't we sue him?"
"Tch~" Chen Tianye said, "What are you suing him for? For corporal punishment of soldiers or for embezzlement of military pay? What's the use of that? Besides, suing him won't eliminate the Ninth Elder's suspicion of us. Instead, it will make you doubt your motives."
"It makes sense!" Qingshi touched his chin and listened to Chen Tianye and Duan Wutian's conversation. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, "What you two said makes sense, but this matter has to be reversed!"
"What makes sense?" Chen Tianye said, "A complaint?"
"The other way around?" Duan Wutian asked confused, "What do you mean?"
"It's a black complaint!" Qingshi laughed, "But it's not a black complaint that we sue Luo Duli, but a black complaint that allows him to continue to sue us, not only against us, but also other people. This guy has a small temper. , is a master who must retaliate. I can't use soul magic to reverse his temper, so I just push him forward and let him vent all the resentment in his heart towards other people."
"This..." Duan Wutian scratched his bald head and said, "What's the use of this?"
"Doesn't this guy like to sue? Let him continue to sue!" Qingshi said with a smile, "I heard that this guy and Deputy Commander Madru of the Left Guard Battalion, Captain Qionghu of the Center Battalion, and our First Forward Battalion Captain Tai Yang doesn’t want to deal with it, so let’s fiddle with the conflicts between them, and then I’ll use my soul skills to infinitely amplify the resentment in Luo Duli’s heart and let him report these people together, wouldn’t that be great?”
"Wonderful!" Chen Tianye said with a smile, "It's indeed a brilliant idea!"
"Oh~" Duan Wutian also understood, "In this way, he turns into a mad dog that bites people everywhere. Naturally, the Ninth Elder will not take his small reports seriously, hahaha... ....”
The three of them raised their glasses and drank it all.
The next day, at dawn, the military camp conducted drills as usual.
After the exercise, Qingshi found Luo Duli immediately.
"Sir Vice Commander," Qingshi said with a sneer, "I heard that you went to the Ninth Elder to file a complaint against me?"
"This..." Luo Duli was stunned and subconsciously looked at Anfu.
Anfu didn't expect Qingshi to blame Luo Duli so directly to his face. When he was thinking about how to respond, he saw Luo Duli glaring at him and immediately stared back, meaning I just told Qingshi, what do you want?
Luo Duli didn't dare to do anything to Anfu, so he had to use Qingshi to get angry. He turned to Qingshi and said angrily: "Qingshi, it is my responsibility to review the qualifications of new officers and soldiers. Your identity is doubtful. Is there anything wrong with me reporting it to the superior? You are like this Are you going to publicly question Shangfeng?”
"Come on!" Qingshi said, "You just wanted me to pay you a tribute of spiritual stones, but I didn't do it, so you held a grudge and deliberately sued me."
"Presumptuous!" Luo Duli was furious and shouted, "How dare you slander Shangfeng, I have to teach you a lesson today."
Qingshi deliberately used words to anger Luo Duli, and when Luo Duli's hatred for him suddenly rose, he secretly used soul magic to fill it up.
It was impossible for him to reverse Roduli's mood and make him feel good about him, but it was very easy and subtle to push him on top of his hatred for himself.
Luo Duli was filled with resentment. Since Qingshi dared to question him publicly and fabricate rumors to slander him, he naturally had every reason to teach Qingshi a lesson.
Luo Duli attacked Qingshi, but Qingshi didn't fight back. He just kept dodging and resisting, while at the same time he continued to tease Luo Duli with words and soul skills.
The deputy commander of the forward battalion attacked the fifth captain, which immediately attracted a large number of people to gather around to watch the excitement, including soldiers and generals from several other battalions who had not yet left the martial arts field. An Fu wanted to step forward to stop him, but Duan Wutian held him back and said there was no need to worry, Qingshi would definitely be able to defeat Luo Duli. An Fu was doubtful and left it alone.
"Deputy Commander Luo," Qingshi saw that there were enough people watching, and shouted loudly as he dodged, "We can explain the right and wrong in front of Shangguan. Why are you so stubborn?"
"I'm going to teach you a lesson today," Luo Duli, who had been provoked to the point of losing his mind by the bluestone, shouted angrily, "Even if I beat you to death, you deserve it!"
"You want to kill me and silence me? I'm afraid you don't have the ability!" Qingshi said, "If you don't stop, I will fight back. Don't regret if I hurt you."
"Crazy guy!" Luo Duli became even more angry. He took out a big knife and slashed at Qingshi while roaring, "I have to kill you today. You fight back. If you have the ability, don't just run away!" "
This was what Qingshi was waiting for. He immediately stopped dodging and raised his hand to take out the light-chasing sword and fight with Luo Duli's broadsword.
Although Luo Duli has reached the ninth stage of the Immortal Pill Realm, he has not yet fully understood any of the ways of heaven or humanity, and his fighting ability is not as good as Duan Wutian, who is only at the first stage of the Immortal Pill Realm but has both yin and yang true energy. It would be easy for Qingshi to defeat him, but Qingshi didn't want to win too easily.
After fighting for more than a hundred moves, Qingshi suddenly sent out an invisible wind blade with his left hand. Unexpectedly, it hit Luo Duli's right leg. Luo Duli was caught off guard, and the big knife in his hand was unable to parry, and was struck by Qingshi's sword. The pick flew away, and then, Qingshi's sword stabbed seven or eight swords in a row. Except for one sword that stabbed Luo Duli in the ribs, which blocked his true energy and temporarily lost his fighting power, the other swords struck his hair into a bun. He was cut off, half of his gown was cut off, and the sleeve of his left hand was cut open at the shoulder level, leaving him in a state of embarrassment even though his injuries were not serious. Finally, Qingshi kicked Luo Duli to the point where he was beaten to a pulp.
All this was done almost in an instant. When everyone saw clearly, Qingshi had already put away his sword and stood up, while Luo Duli was lying on the ground like a bereaved dog.
"Okay!" The one who took the lead in cheering was not Duan Wutian, but Tai Yang, the captain of the first team of the forward battalion. He had a deep conflict with Luo Duli and was often bullied. Seeing this situation, he was naturally so excited that he couldn't help but shout. cheer.
The hundreds of onlookers all laughed heartily when they saw Luo Duli's embarrassment. Luo Duli was ashamed and felt that everyone looked disgusting, especially Deputy Commander Ma of the Left Guard Battalion and Captain Qiong of the Center Battalion. As well as people like Tai Yang, especially Deputy Commander Madru of the Zuowei Battalion, because he felt that he could have defeated Qingshi, and the wind blade assassination in his right leg was caused by Madru, or perhaps It's Anfu.
Luo Duli's injury was not serious and he was able to move freely soon. Amid the roar of laughter from everyone, he lowered his head and fled into his tent in panic.
As expected by Qingshi, Luo Duli couldn't calm down the hatred in his heart, so he once again wrote a black warrant and handed it to the Ninth Elder. What he hated most was Madru, so he revealed the fact that Madru was embezzling military pay.
However, he also sued Madru for his crimes, which surprised Qingshi.
Three days later at night, in Qingshi's camp, Qing Duan and Chen discussed the matter again.
"Bluestone," Duan Wutian said, "Although your move is brilliant, Luo Duli only sued Madru for the black case. This seems to not have the expected effect!"
"Yes!" Qingshi nodded, "I thought he would be carried away by anger and jealousy and would bite everywhere, but I didn't expect that his determination exceeded my judgment."
"That's right," Chen Tianye said, "Tai Yang was the first to laugh loudly that day. I thought Luo Duli would definitely report that Tai Yang was a wanted criminal in Nanpi County, but it turned out that he didn't follow the route we designed. .”
"This guy is quite cunning!" Duan Wutian said, "Did he notice something? These two black certificates cannot prove that he is a mad dog."
"It doesn't matter!" Qingshi said with a smile, "If he doesn't file a lawsuit, we can file a lawsuit for him!"
"Yes!" Chen Tianye's eyes lit up, "I can help him write a few black papers and then quietly put them on the desk of the Ninth Elder's handsome account."
"It's up to me to release the black flag," Qingshi said. "If it's discovered, I can use soul magic to confuse the guards of the commander's camp to remedy the situation."
"Yeah!" Chen Tianye nodded, "It's best for you to go, but I have to do it for forging black records. I'm good at this."
"Yes!" Duan Wutian said with a smile, "That guy with the beard often forged documents when he was in Tianlong Academy. I remember one time he imitated Dean Mo's handwriting and forged a commendation document, giving himself a special approval of 10,000 yuan. Credits, those old fools in the task management office were so stunned that they didn’t realize it, hahaha..."
The three of them laughed together, and at the end, Chen Tianye said: "Although this method of framing him is feasible, but if the Ninth Elder calls him for questioning, the problem may be discovered after a confrontation."
"So," Qingshi said, "we need to submit a letter to blackmail the Ninth Elder while he is away, and then kill Luo Duli before he comes back."
"The Ninth Elder is often away from the camp for several days," Chen Tianye said. "There is no problem in submitting a letter, and it is easy to kill Luo Duli, but didn't you say that it would arouse suspicion?"
"Now that the matter has come to this," Qingshi said, "the only option is to kill people and silence them. However, we won't do it in the military camp, and we also have a scapegoat."
"Who?" Duan and Chen asked in unison, "Who will take the blame?"
"Haha..." Qingshi laughed, "Isn't the Yanlong Immortal who killed Delang not caught yet?"
