Liang Xingyang has completed self-refinement and foundation building, and is full of energy and spirit. As the saying goes, "When you are full of energy, you don't think about adultery, when you are full of energy, you don't think about food, when you are full of energy, you don't want to sleep." Facing all kinds of delicacies cooked with oil and salt, he instinctively feels tired. He was so panicked that he only picked up a few pieces of fruit to eat during the dinner. He didn't drink any alcohol. He just looked after Lingbao and asked him to be careful of fish bones. He sat with the adults until midnight.
The reason why he was willing to waste time here was because he asked these people to do something for him.
Lingbao has entered the foundation building stage and can start to refine the sword. Liang Xingyang has almost prepared the main hardware and eight stones. He also needs some tools and auxiliary materials. It is too time-consuming and laborious to collect them all by himself, so he wants to use the power of these officials to do it. .
Governor Bai Langqi laughed after hearing this: "Some things are not worth mentioning!"
The prefect Xiao Wanling said: "I have always assisted the prefect in handling civil affairs. If you don't bother with these trivial matters, I will find someone to do it for Xiao Zhenren!" After saying that, he waved his hand to call someone and asked him to give Liang Xingyang what he wanted. Write them all down.
Bai Langqi was very insistent: "Zhifu Zhang has just passed away. The people in the city are ownerless, in chaos, and the government affairs are complicated. It all depends on Mr. Xiao's hard work. Let me find someone to handle things like Xiao Zhenren!" After he finished speaking, he also called someone.
Liang Xingyang looked around, Xiao Wanling smiled and waved his hand, asking his people to retreat, and Liang Xingyang told him what he needed.
The next morning, Bai Lang got up and gathered all the things and personally brought them to Liang Xingyang.
Liang Xingyang was a little surprised. The prefect was dead, the commander-in-chief was dead, and although the White Bone Sect's people had temporarily withdrawn, they might come back at any time, but he, the governor, was not busy at all and even came to deliver things to him in person.
After Bai Langqi entered the door, he asked Liang Xingyang to count the necessary items, then sat down and exchanged a few words, asking if he was used to living in this house.
Liang Xingyang knew that he must have something to do when he came, so he asked straight to the point.
Bai Langqi pondered for a moment, and suddenly his face showed sadness: "To be honest, I came here this time to ask Xiao Zhenren to take action to deal with that bone-white monster. Now the six states of Kunyuan are all in ruins, and there is one governor and four general soldiers. , six prefects, as well as officials of various states and counties, all died at the hands of the White Bone Cult demoniacs, the common people suffered, and all the people were in ruins!"
Liang Xingyang nodded: "I hate cults most in my life. Even if the governor doesn't tell me, I won't sit idly by if I encounter them."
"Oh?" Bai Langqi raised his eyebrows with joy, "That's great! In the past year, the army and the army have been defeated in consecutive battles and lost troops and generals. I am not afraid of the little real person's jokes. I have tried my best to organize soldiers and horses and bone thieves several times. During the fighting, more than a dozen church leaders were killed, but these thieves were like weeds on the roadside. After killing a group, another group appeared soon, seemingly endless. Two months ago, in the Hungry Ghost In a battle at Pomihun Pass, my 30-year-old eldest son died in the battle, and the whole family, including our half-month-old grandson, was eaten alive by the Bone Demon with his skeleton!"
Thinking of the tragic death of his eldest son and his family, the governor, who was only in his fifties and already had all white hair, couldn't help crying and crying.
It seems that the White Bone Sect is more vicious than the Golden Lantern Sect!
Liang Xingyang comforted him: "Don't worry, Governor Bai. It's my duty to slay demons and evil spirits. Tomorrow I will go meet the Bone General and try to find their base and see if I can behead all their heads."
"Ah... there's no need to be so urgent." Bai Langqi thought that this child looked very impatient despite his age, so he quickly wiped his tears, "The little real man has superb magic power, so he can easily kill the bones of the traitor..."
"No." Liang Xingyang shook his head, "I'm not that powerful either. If I face the enemy head-on, I can only have a slight upper hand when General Bones releases his divine magic body. If he increases his wish power by a large amount, I will no longer be my opponent. . But I won’t fight him in a positional battle. The sword is very fast and can hit the east and the west. I can use some means. Even if I can’t kill him, I can still kill more of his men. Whether I can succeed or not depends on a bit of luck.”
Bai Langqi thought about it: "There are so many demons in the White Bone Sect, and it might be a bit dangerous for Xiao Zhenren to fight alone. Why don't I send a group of troops to go with Xiao Zhenren to try to recapture the Lost Soul Pass and drive away the White Bone Thief?" Go down to Menggui Slope, so that the south of Yuping City is protected, and we have a place to move in depth, and then we can recapture Yongning and Guchang Prefectures depending on the situation."
Liang Xingyang felt that he did not understand military affairs: "Everything is based on what the governor said. I wonder how many troops can be sent?"
Bai Langqi said: "There are more than 10,000 people now. I will recruit another 20,000 from the city to make up 30,000. If we advance in this way, we can regain the lost ground, and if we retreat, we can guard the pass. It can take as little as five days, as long as half a month. Please be patient, little master." wait."
Liang Xingyang nodded in agreement: "That's just right. I'll make the sword pill in these few days."
After receiving his promise, Bai Langqi walked away with brisk steps.
Liang Xingyang arranged the things he had sent, built a stove in the yard, installed a large cauldron, refined various materials repeatedly, and then weighed them strictly to prepare the sword.
While he was doing it, he explained to Lingbao that this younger brother was very talented in monasticism, with a pure and dedicated mind, able to be both quiet and active, very well-behaved and obedient, serious and studious, and Liang Xingyang also loved teaching him.
It was busy until the afternoon when another guest came outside the courtyard gate. They were the Prime Minister Xiao Wanling and the General Soldier of Gu Chang, Lu Wenbiao.
Liang Xingyang invited the two of them into the room and asked them their purpose. When the two said it, Liang Xingyang was stunned.
It turned out that the two wanted to ask Liang Xingyang for help and go to the north to guard Yuping Pass.
"The White Bone Sect first originated from the three states of Qianyuan in the northwest. Later it became a thing and set fire to the prairie fire! Now my master, Mr. Yue Lu, has been named the Left Governor by the emperor. He holds a sword and leads a hundred thousand soldiers from heaven. A burst of Hunyuan Qi was deployed in the land of Gandui Five States, trapping millions of demons from the White Bone Sect, waiting to be eliminated. Orders have been sent to everyone, asking us to guard every pass and not let them escape.
According to the Five States Formation Map, Yuping Pass to the north of us is a very important place. If the White Bone Thief uses that as a breakthrough point to cross Yuping Mountain and enter the Kunyuan Land, the Hunyuan Qi Formation will lose its momentum. The White Bone Thief will at least May your luck continue for another fifty years. Therefore, I kindly ask Xiao Zhenren to help Mr. Lu guard Yumen Pass. If the Bone Thief comes, be sure to stop him. When the Bone Rebellion is eliminated in the future, Xiao Zhenren will definitely be remembered for his great contribution! "
Liang Xingyang was a little confused and couldn't figure out the situation: "Governor Bai came in the morning and asked me to help fight the Mist Pass in the south."
Xiao Wanling and Lu Wenbiao looked at each other with an expression in their eyes: "I had expected this."
"Bai Langqi has selfish motives!" Xiao Wanling explained to Liang Xingyang, "He is the governor of Kunyuan. Now five and a half of the six states have been lost, and only Yuping City is still there. If we are investigated in the future, he will not be able to escape a man who beheaded and abandoned the city. At the end of the day, we can only save our lives and property by regaining as much lost ground as possible before the war ends!"
Lu Wenbiao said: "Now in the whole Kunyuan land, I am the only one who still has more than 10,000 capable warriors, and I can barely defend the city. If I go out to fight with the Bone Thieves in the wild, I will definitely lose! I have made an agreement with Brother Wanling that we must You have to defend Yuping Pass, otherwise once the Bone Bandits from the north break through the pass and flood in in large numbers, even if he takes back the Lost Soul Pass, he will still be completely defeated, and Yuping City will not be saved!"
