The Legend of Honghuang Erlang

Chapter 277 Borrowing soldiers for profit

"Brother Lu, why are you here?"

Yang Jian dragged the Xiaotian dog to take two quick steps, unconsciously beaming with delight; the twelve commanders followed quickly, all bowing to the Taoist Gao Guan.

The one surnamed Lu, who is on good terms with Yang Jian, can be recognized by Xiao Tiangou at a glance in the vast crowd... Except for Lu Chunyang, there is no other person.

"Haha," Lu Chunyang laughed a few times, "I have news that you are here to fight demons. I flew here directly from Nanzhou on a starry night. As soon as I landed, I saw you walking your dog on the street. You are a demon!"

Yang Jian smiled awkwardly, but asked a little puzzled: "I just arrived here yesterday, how did the news spread so quickly?"

Lu Chunyang patted Yang Jian's arm and said with a smile: "Don't forget your identity, the marshal of the Heavenly Court, the disciple of Yuxu Palace, the famous Erlang Zhenjun. No one is watching you wherever you go?"

"Brother Lu, do you know where I was a month ago?" Yang Jian smiled inscrutablely, feeling that Lu Chunyang couldn't guess that he was in the Wuchen Realm.

But Lu Chunyang blinked: "Didn't you be thrown into the legendary Chaos Clock by Kong Xuan? You can still come out of the Chaos Clock with your whole body. You are really more and more difficult for my little sword fairy to see through."

"Stop teasing me."

Thinking of what happened before, Yang Jian shook his head with a wry smile, but he didn't tell Lu Chunyang about Tianyan Daozi.

Yang Jian didn't tell Master about this matter, nor did Master ask about it. As the saying goes, the master leads the door, and the cultivation depends on the individual. Yang Jian can't ask the master to share his worries and problems for him in everything.

What's more, the chaos clock involved too much, and Yang Jian didn't dare to pull Master into this karma.

Lu Chunyang said: "Where are you going?"

"Go to meet the city lord of Meicheng," Yang Jian waved his hand, and used the mysterious method to hide the group of them from their tracks; making a gesture of invitation, Lu Chunyang walked forward side by side with Yang Jian.

"Mei Guihun, if she had less obsessions in her heart, she would be a piece of jade in the rough. It's a pity..."

Lu Chunyang hesitated to speak, shook his head and sighed, and said softly to Yang Jian: "Mei Guihun's father and I are old friends. When he died in Meishan, I was unable to save him. Therefore, whenever there is a war in Meishan, I will definitely come here to help."

"I see," Yang Jian nodded, looking at Lu Chunyang with a half-smile.

Lu Chunyang coughed, avoiding Yang Jian's gaze, and whispered: "I did receive a letter from Mei Guihun, let me come here. People in Meicheng are worried that after you take down Meishan, brother, you will occupy Meishan."

"If the monster clan occupies Meishan, they can still mobilize troops and shed blood to take Meishan back. But if you occupy Meishan, my brother, how dare they use their troops?"

"Tell me the truth, what is your plan for this Meishan?"

This old brother turned out to be a 'lobbyist' found by the Mayor of Meicheng.

Yang Jian pretended to be displeased, Lu Chunyang showed embarrassment, and repeatedly apologized to Yang Jian, "Brother, don't be offended, Mei Guihun is really not easy for a woman to support this huge Meicheng, and I can't ignore my old love."

"I'm not that bandit who steals and plunders." Yang Jian twitched his lips. "Although Meishan is the garrison place granted to me by the heavenly court, my territory must not be without a few castles. I will draw the place where I garrison in the future. In the rest of the place, how do they live? It's none of my business."

Lu Chunyang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and slapped Yang Jian on the shoulder, but his whole arm was numb from the shock of Bajiu Xuangong.

"Hiss... Your mana is stronger again?"

Yang Jian led the dog with his hands behind his back, raised his head and said lightly: "Not much, 70% to 80%."

Lu Chunyang rolled his eyes, and almost drew his sword to ask for advice. He really couldn't understand such a proud face of a real gentleman.

It's rare for Yang Jian to be so dishonest.

Gossip less, let's get down to business.

Putting away the roaring dog and instructing it not to inhale evil spirits, Yang Jian and Lu Chunyang went to the City Lord's Mansion of Meicheng together.

What Yang Jian said before, Lu Chunyang naturally told the Mayor of Meicheng, and I don't know if it dispelled the doubts of the Mayor of Meicheng.

As soon as he arrived in front of the city lord's mansion, he heard the din of gongs and drums and the sound of firecrackers. The ground was covered with broken jade and scattered gold, and the soldiers on both sides bowed their heads to greet him.

Stepping on the steps, I heard a gentle and delicate female voice coming from the gate: "The real king is here, and it is impolite to fail to go out of the city to welcome him. I asked the real king to forgive me for my poor hospitality."

In the voice of the words, the woman in a blue dress stepped out of the mansion as if stepping on the rippling water waves, and bowed to Yang Jian Yingying.

Yang Jian bowed back, looked at the woman for a while, and found that she was as beautiful as she was, but she didn't have the softness of a woman, on the contrary, she was full of heroism, and she must be quite majestic when she was serious.

This should be the 'senior' who began to practice at the end of ancient times. Although the Taoism is not deep, Yang Jian did not despise him at all.

"Yesterday, I heard that the city lord is a wonderful woman who does not give way to women. It is really extraordinary to see her today."

"Where, the real gentleman is the dragon and phoenix among men. He is so handsome and handsome, but he still has great means that reach heaven and earth. The little girl has been yearning for a long time but has no chance to meet her. Today, I finally have this fate."

Mei Guihun said softly, with a lot of kindness in her eyes. When she saw Yang Jian, she seemed to have some 'longing in her heart'.

Gentleman, lady is so cute.

"Cough, cough cough!" Lu Chunyang coughed dryly.

"I think Zhenjun is watching closely, but I almost forgot Uncle Lu. I have seen Uncle Lu."

Mei Guihun turned sideways, behind him were more than a dozen generals who went out with Mei Linhan. They were all the generals who had a banquet with Yang Jian yesterday. Yao Gonglin and Zhang Boshi were also among them, bowing their hands to Yang Jian and Lu Chunyang.

Zhang Boshi shouted at the top of his voice, "True Monarch!"

On the contrary, Yao Gonglin and several other generals who were frightened cheered up.

"I have seen Zhenjun, I have seen Senior Lu!"

Yang Jian glanced at Lu Chunyang with a half-smile, and Lu Chunyang knew that Yang Jian was taking care of his face, so he said straight-facedly: "Don't be polite, my monks don't follow so many rules. Although you are now leading the army to fight, don't forget your monk's duty."

The duty of a monk? It should refer to practice.

Mei Guihun said softly: "Zhenjun, Uncle Lu, please come inside quickly, don't just stand here."

Yang Jian and Lu Chunyang walked side by side and entered the Mei Mansion. They exchanged pleasantries and complimented each other for a while, which made Yang Jian feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Entering the banquet, today there are two tables. On the main table, Lu Chunyang and Yang Jian are the guests, Mei Guihun is the host, and the three big Luo masters in the city are the ones mentioned before. Zhi Jian, Guo Shen, and Mei Linhan are the companions. Yao Gonglin, who has a 'close' relationship with Yang Jian, is also called to the main table to drink with him.

After three tours of wine, five tastes of food, and singing and dancing, it is already noon.

Mei Guihun stared at Yang Jian with a pair of phoenix eyes, and finally got to the point, "The real king is here this time, but he wants to use soldiers to suppress the demon?"

The word 'borrow' really made Lu Chunyang and Yang Jian frown at the same time, and the expressions of the generals changed a little during the banquet.

Lu Chunyang was about to speak, but Yang Jian winked and let the old man watch.

Yang Jian said: "That's right. I came here to borrow the soldiers of Meicheng. I wonder how many soldiers the city lord can send with me to conquer the demon of Meishan?"

Mei Guihun smiled lightly and nodded, and said: "The allusion of the true monarch to eliminate demons and defend the way has long been rumored in the prehistoric world. Now that I have come to my city of Meicheng to borrow troops, how can my son of Meicheng dare to fight?" She waved her plain hand, "You can borrow half of the soldiers and horses in my city to the true monarch!"

half?

"City Lord!" The bearded Zhang Boshi stood up and stared at Mei Guihun, "That's not what I said before!"

Another tall and thin general stood up, cupped his hands and said, "City Master, if only half of the troops are sent out, who will we wait for not to fight? Blood feud with the Meishan monster clan, which of you brothers here has no one?"

Mei Guihun seemed to have known this beforehand, she smiled and said nothing, but Mei Linhan murmured a few times, and said, "Do you want to fight with your back? If all the soldiers and horses press up, no one in the city is defending, and the monster soldiers attack, how will these hundreds of thousands of mortals and those monks who are not cultivated enough protect themselves?"

Another general asked back: "Isn't there a big formation in this city! How many times have the monsters attacked, and when did the big formation be broken?"

It seems that these generals of Meicheng do not agree with the statement that the city lord and deputy city lord suddenly changed.

At that moment, with every word you said, half of the generals began to persuade Mei Guihun, wanting Mei Guihun to take back half of the borrowed troops that he said earlier, but they sent out all the troops.

Yao Gonglin sighed in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Zhenjun wants to recover Meishan and use Meishan as a garrison; we want to recover our homeland and let the fallen leaves of Meishan return to its roots. These two things are originally one thing, and the combination will benefit both..."

"Why did Gonglin start talking to outsiders?" Mei Linhan said indifferently, and Yao Gonglin was speechless, and he stopped talking in a muffled voice.

Yang Jian wrote down the speakers one by one, there were nine in total.

Yang Jian said with a smile: "It seems that all the generals have the heart to participate in the battle, but the defense of the city should not be neglected. Half of the city's soldiers and horses are just chasing and intercepting the monster deserters, which is enough. I will also write a book, and I implore the masters of this sect to come to help."

Hearing this, the generals were inexplicably excited, and Lu Chunyang's complexion also turned slightly.

Lu Chunyang said: "I will also write a letter to the major sects in China. Eliminating demons is a righteous thing, and I can make some effort."

"Thank you, big brother," Yang Jian took Mei Linhan's expression into his eyes from the corner of his eyes, and found that the latter was very calm, not as gawky as yesterday.

Did I infer wrongly? Is there anything wrong with Mei Linhan?

That's all, just look at it and you'll know.

"Okay!" Mei Linhan suddenly patted the armrest of the seat, stood up and shouted, "This gathering of heroes will definitely wipe out all the monsters in Meishan!"

But when Mei Linhan changed his words, he smiled at Yang Jian in embarrassment, and said: "But as the saying goes, brothers have to settle accounts clearly. I don't know what kind of benefits the real king will give us by borrowing soldiers."

As soon as these words came out, all the generals were ashamed, and Zhang Boshi's impatient neck turned red from anger, and he glared at Mei Linhan.

"Okay! Okay!" Lu Chunyang suddenly pushed the cup directly, stood up and stared at the deputy city lord of Meicheng, "You invited me over last night, that's not what you said! If you don't give me an explanation today, before you get rid of the demon, you should settle down first!"

Mei Linhan never thought that Yang Jian was not provoked, but the face of the lobbyist he invited changed.

"Senior Lu, you..."

"I'm asking your city lords."

Mei Guihun closed her eyes and sighed, "Uncle, Guihun is only for future planning, please be considerate of Uncle."

"I don't care about today's matter! I really have lost even a bit of my face!" Lu Chunyang snorted, really had the urge to draw his sword, sighed coldly, and was about to leave.

But just as Lu Chunyang took half a step, Yang Jian grabbed his sleeve.
