Chapter 174: Lou Zi
Walking through the long gravel path, entering the huge tunnel under the main peak, and bypassing the winding corridor that was like a long snake, Yanxi finally arrived in front of a bamboo shed halfway up the mountain, under the leadership of Heiwei.
"You are here and I'll report it first."
Yanxi nodded silently.
After a while, Heiwei walked out of the room, and along with him were the squirrel military doctors holding a large stack of bamboo slips, and three or five little monsters wearing cloth robes, like civil servants.
A group of little demons passed by Yan Xi and couldn't help but glance at Yan Xi.
In terms of scale, this place is definitely a huge fortress. But in terms of style, Huaguo Mountain is actually more like a copycat.
Even though it has an airport that can be docked with dozens of warships, has its own towns and industries, a large number of residents, a huge schoolyard, and even has almost impeccable defense, it still looks like a copycat.
Buildings that can be built with bamboo will never use wooden boards. Standing on the mountain and looking down, more than half of the buildings on the plain between the crater and the main peak around the entire Huaguo Mountain boundary have thatched roofs.
The people in Huaguo Mountain were even more dusty. In addition to the soldiers wearing armor, they looked like something, most of the residents were cloth clothes, and they were tied with hemp ropes on their bodies, as if they were untied, the clothes on their bodies would fall apart. There was no silk and satin.
Yan Xi, who was wearing a satin underwear and wearing exquisite armor, stood here, was out of place. It was almost impossible not to attract attention.
"Get in." Heiwei winked at Yanxi.
Taking a deep breath, Yanxi pushed the door and walked in.
The small, even a little crowded bamboo house is full of straw on the roof, and half of the embedded mountain is a rough, unsanded stone wall.
In this small room, there were two bookshelves, with various booklets and bamboo slips piled up in a mess.
The side facing outside the mountain is a bamboo shed balcony, from which you can overlook the school ground at the foot of the mountain. The side facing the mountain is closed, with only a low table placed.
At this moment, the monkey was sitting on the cushion beside the low table, half frowned and looked at Yanxi.
"The God Transformation Realm..." In just a moment, Yanxi clearly felt it. It was not just the God Transformation Realm. To be precise, it was the God Transformation Realm Taiyi Sanxian. She was higher than her cultivation level.
"What are you asking me for?"
After being asked this, Yanxi suddenly recovered and quickly looked straight and said, "Senior Brother...Senior Brother wants you to go to the demon world."
"What are you going to do?"
“There’s something to do.”
"You can decide for yourself if you have something to do. Why do you want me? I don't understand." As he said that, the monkey reached out and grabbed a peeled nut from the fruit plate, threw it into his mouth and started chewing it.
Helplessly, Yanxi had to whisper: "You are the nominal commander of the new army, and we need you to go to the Wan Yao Palace."
Hearing this, the monkey raised his eyelids and looked at Yanxi, raised his waist slightly, and sat lazily.
"Concrete." The monkey reached out his hand, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and held them in his hand, and started to eat them.
"It is...we have lost the battle. According to the rules, this situation should be explained by the commander-in-chief, so..."
"Defeat? When did it happen?"
"Just a few days ago."
"How many people died?"
"We are not dead."
"Um?"
Under the monkey's gaze, Yanxi had to bite the bullet and said, "We cooperated with Xiaomeng to target Guanjiangkou. According to the agreement, the new army was responsible for severing their foreign aid, but temporarily found that the enemy's foreign aid was different from the information they received at the beginning, not two thousand military forces, but twenty thousand."
"So you didn't fight, just retreat?"
"right."
"How many casualties and injuries of the Demon Peng King?"
After pursing his lips, Yan Xi stammered and said, "The Demon King Peng... lost more than 20,000 troops."
The monkey's eyebrows were frowning.
"So... I'm asking me to go to the palace to take the blame?"
Yan Xi blinked her eyes and had no answer.
She didn't answer, and the monkey didn't speak, so she looked at her quietly, eating melon seeds, looking like a hippie smile.
Before coming, Yanxi was full of confidence. After all, if it were not for the franchise of the multi-eyed monster, the monkey would not have owned this mining area, and it would be even more impossible to be exempted from taxes. In order to keep this mining area and continue to live a comfortable life, she felt that the monkey would not be able to refuse her request.
After all, although he is known as the commander of the new army, he is just a little demon after all. It is no more difficult to break a monkey's hand than to break a baby.
But now... the feng shui turns, thirty years from Hedong, thirty years from Hexi...
After a while, after confirming that she would not accept the conversation, the monkey would not agree, Yanxi finally spoke.
"That's right. As you agree with your senior brother, you must go to the palace. This is what you should do."
"Is that?" The monkey was almost laughing and breathless, saying, "So I will definitely go, but it's not appropriate to throw a blame for me for no reason, right? It's a little...compensation. Otherwise, I can go to the palace and say that you disobey the military order. At that time, it's at most a name that will be incompetent."
"What compensation do you want?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. Didn't I know that you've made such a big mistake? I have to think about it."
"You!" Yanxi was angry for a moment, but she didn't know what to say.
The momentum has been completely suppressed.
After patting the pieces that were stuck on the hand, the monkey said leisurely: "Are you staying here or going back first?"
"What?"
"Stay here for a few days, or go back first? I still have something to do now, something more important than yours. After I finish my work, I will make your business. Of course, you can also offer a high price, which is more important than what I have at hand, so you will naturally give priority."
"The memorial of Peng Demon King has been handed over. They want to use this matter to attack the new army! Things cannot be delayed!" Yanxi's voice suddenly rose octave.
"You know that things can't be delayed? Then you are still in a carriage? Still staggering?" The monkey stopped smiling and said coldly: "Is this my fault? Is it my fault?"
"No...no."
"It's not my fault, but I want me to take the blame, so I have to listen to me. I said a few days later, a few days later. If you are not happy, you can do it according to your own wishes, but don't ask me to go to the palace." With his eyes widened, the monkey said word by word: "Do you understand what I mean?"
In the small room, the two were in a stalemate.
After a while, Yanxi had to lower her head slightly and said, "Okay... listen to you."
"This is not my fault. I can cooperate with you, but I can't make me lose."
“This is nature.”
"Also, I heard that you have won a lot of military expenditure for the new army. I am the commander, but I haven't seen a single cent. I have two thousand soldiers here, and I will share them with me in the future."
"You!" Yanxi's fists were clenched.
"Hmm?" The monkey glared back with a glance.
Helplessly, Yanxi could only whisper: "I can't make the decision on this matter."
"Then hurry up and ask your senior brother. He agrees and I'll set off again. I'm very busy and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you." As he said that, the monkey picked up a copy of the documents piled up on the table, held it in his hand and flipped it up, saying casually: "Okay, you can leave. I have other things to do. I'll notify me if there is a result. Black Tail - Save the guests!"
