Chengguoji, Xiankelai Inn.
Lu Wu and his party did not go back directly to the Xiankelai Inn. Instead, they entered a small courtyard on the edge of the city with the carriage.
This small courtyard had been prepared for a long time. Since he discovered that spies from all sides were watching, Lu Wu ordered Ban Liao from the Li family's motorcade to rent it secretly in case of emergency.
Although it was the middle of the night, if they wanted to return to the Tingyun Courtyard of the Cyclamen Inn, they would definitely have to alert the innkeepers, so they stayed here overnight and it would not be too late to return to the Tingyun Courtyard tomorrow.
"Master, I think this woman is a smart person. She is desperate now, and only we will take her in. She should be available." Qiu Tong came to Lu Wu's room and said.
"You figure it out. If you can use it, just keep it. We will need to find more people in the future, so you have to put in some effort." Lu Wu waved his hand, took off his coat and lay down on the bed, saying.
"Master, why do you need to find more people?" Qiu Tong was puzzled.
The reason for accepting the allegiance of the Li family was that Jin Ju and Li He hit it off at first sight. Everyone in the Li family's team did have experience in traveling around the world and could save everyone a lot of trouble.
As for Ye Ying, it was because Yu Lan had some sympathy, and the woman's family was ruined and she had no choice but to worry about her betrayal. Of course, being able to help sort out the accounts was one of the reasons for taking her in.
But according to the young master's wishes, you still want to recruit people?
The more people you look for, the more money you have to spend. Qiu Tong is a little reluctant to part with it. The money is too wasteful.
“There are still too few of us, and it’s a lot of inconvenience to do things. If there is a conflict with someone in the future, we will take action from the front, and there won’t even be anyone watching the car from behind.
Also, every time something happens we have to take action personally. If there is an emergency, we won’t even have enough time to put on armor.
Forget it, you don't care about ordinary swords, guns, bows and arrows, but Hongmei and the others are still short of breath. If they don't have time to put on their armor, they will inevitably be injured in a chaotic battle. " Lu Wu said.
After leaving Songjing, their small convoy had several conflicts with others. They were basically impromptu and there was no time to put on armor. Everyone went into battle in regular clothes - which meant that the intensity of the conflict was not high and the opponent was also a loser. Otherwise, they might have been killed. Suffered a loss.
Lu Wu's martial arts skills are outstanding. They were brought from his mother's womb and cannot be compared with others. However, Qiutong and other girls all use "Eighteen Slashes on Mountains and Mountains" as their basis for martial arts. They use a wide range of moves to overpower others. , the flaw is bigger, and it is easy to be injured without armor.
The more advanced the martial arts skills of a military strategist are, the more they adopt this routine - focusing on attack and leaving defense to armor.
Is it a big deal for a high-level military strategist to get a suit of armor?
But on the other hand, without armor, the power of a military warrior is greatly reduced.
The iron cloth shirt is not omnipotent, or in other words, any outer sect's hard skills have their limits, and absolute defense does not exist - let alone only the outer sect's hard skills, even if it is the military aura of a military general or the advanced skills of a martial arts master. With Tiangang Qi, I dare not say that it can withstand any attack.
Armor-breaking arrows, divine arm bows, crossbows, armor-breaking awls, iron whips, copper maces, heavy hammers, and axes, there are many weapons that can restrain the hard skills of the outer sect.
In the hands of masters of level 4 and above who can release their true energy, even a mortal iron long sword filled with true energy can cut through metal and iron, and penetrate horizontally and practice external skills.
Of course, the body and skin of a truly accomplished practitioner in the Iron Cloth Shirt is a first-class carrier of true energy, and can penetrate the true energy better than any weapon. When comparing the two, the main factor is the characteristics and purity of the true energy - -It's just that although the iron cloth shirt consumes a small amount of infuriating energy, it is not as labor-saving as using armor.
Otherwise, among the military and martial arts masters in the world, there are definitely many who have mastered the hard skills of the outer sect, but no one thinks that armor is cumbersome - those who dare to charge into the military formation bare-chested are not true military generals, that is I was completely blinded and couldn't care less.
"Master, do you want to train a private army?" Qiu Tong asked.
Since ancient times, generals have had to have a bodyguard.
"How can I have the energy to train my own soldiers? I'll be exhausted just by teaching you idiots."
Lu Wu shook his head. He didn't have the time. "I just want to recruit some people to help you on weekdays. They can be used as cannon fodder in a war."
"Obviously, young master, you are too lazy - if we were fools, there would be few geniuses in the world." Qing Zhu and Hong Mei walked in from the door, carrying a big bed.
Qingzhu said.
They had this feeling in Songjing - there are many capable people in the world, but along the way, all they met were chickens and dogs. How many masters are there?
Even if I see a few innate masters, they are all middle-aged people in their thirties or above, and forty or fifty is not unusual. They are only in their teens, and they can train their wives to this level. The internal kung fu has reached the fifth level of true strength, and the eldest sister is even more accomplished in the Iron Clothes Shirt. The internal refining of fourth level true energy can be released externally - they are already very powerful. How can they be stupid?
At least the newly joined Li Shi and Ban Liao have traveled the world for many years and have not seen many masters of their level.
"Okay, okay, you are geniuses - but why did you bring a bed in?" Lu Wu asked without arguing about this trivial matter.
"Sleep with the young master? You are away from home. The young master doesn't do morning classes anymore. We can only get some light when the young master goes to bed at night." Qingzhu said confidently.
While talking, Jinju and Yulan also moved in a big bed.
After a while, even the Black God tentatively squeezed in, found a place beside the three big beds, and lay down with a hooves, making it clear that he was not ready to go out.
As for Qiu Tong, she might as well lie down next to Lu Wu - this was her prerogative.
Lu Wu was speechless.
When Lu Wu was sleeping, as long as he did not deliberately restrain himself, the unbelievably powerful Nine Netherworld Qi would flow out of his body, and with the rhythm of his heartbeat, there would be a faint tide within a radius of two feet around him.
This does not do much good to outsiders, and it can easily distort the meridians if exposed to it for a long time.
But for the girls who have been practicing the "Gold, Bone, Chalcedony and Iron Cloth Shirt" he created since childhood and followed him to perform thunderous body cleansing, this is a fully automatic cultivation plug-in that promotes the simultaneous movement of true energy and blood.

"Master, I found it." Disciple Sang Ji pushed open the door and walked into the quiet room to report.
"Who are those people? What did they do last night? Have you found out?" Lu Zuo asked.
Lu Zuo still can't believe that a strong military strategist who is at least at the level of harmony between man and nature would actually lead a group of military masters to deal with the small Black Snake Guild. This can no longer be said to be killing a chicken with a sledgehammer.
If he said that these people were specifically going to kill his own son, then he would not believe it even more.
My son is an honest child, and it is pure nonsense to say that he can offend a master of this level.
This lineup has no difficulty in dealing with him, and it is even less likely that he will use his son to deal with him.
"It's Lu Wu, a fighting general from the Kingdom of Wu, and his five maids. Apart from the murder of the leader of the Black Snake Association and the robbery of his family's belongings, nothing else happened in Chengnan Town last night," Sang Ji replied.
"By the way, Master, the concubine that Black Snake Hui Shou Wang Long took in yesterday has disappeared. She may have been taken away by them."
