Chapter 536 The Truth About the Game
Three generals camp.
The residence of military advisor Ning Zhuo.
In the simple reception hall, there were only three people: Liu Er, Ning Zhuo and Zhao Xi.
Zhao Xi took the seat, and Ning Zhuo sat with him.
"The last general will meet Master Zhao!" Liu Er stood in front of Zhao Xi and bowed.
He looked at Zhao Xi with a sincere face and sincerely thanked him for his help.
Zhao Xi looked at Liu Er, his eyes paused on the dried blood at the corner of Liu Er's mouth.
Just now, Shuangjing led the quartermaster to attack, Liu Er blocked him with his body, was injured, and vomited blood, but he endured it without treatment.
Zhao Xi nodded slightly, stretched out his finger, and nodded to Liu Er: "You are a sensible person, very good."
Then, he waved his hand: "Sit down."
In Zhao Xi's heart, he didn't care about Liu Er, a shemale's mixed-race golden pill, and his main attention was on Ning Zhuo.
As early as in Canglin Immortal City, Ning Zhuo had dealt with Zhao Xi.
At that time, Ning Zhuo used the primordial infant-level treasure materials from the corpse of the old monster in the stone to successfully bribe Zhao Xi and help the Red Flower Camp.
Therefore, Zhao Xi smiled at this moment and exchanged pleasantries with Ning Zhuo with the attitude of an old friend.
After a few gossips, Zhao Xi said jokingly: "To be honest, when I met Young Master Ning for the first time, I would never have thought that Young Master would become the uncle of General Mu's mansion and Mu Lan's husband."
He rubbed the handle of the wooden chair with his palm and sighed: "This change in the world is really beyond expectations, it is very mysterious!"
Ning Zhuo smiled, but his heart was slightly cold, knowing that he had talked about the important points.
He did not hesitate at all, and immediately said: "Regarding this matter, I also bit the bullet and took it on by chance."
"I believe that Master Zhao has a clear understanding of the situation at that time."
Zhao Xi immediately laughed, pointed to Ning Zhuo's nose, and laughed and scolded in a friendly tone: "I was also stunned when I heard about it at the time."
"Everyone's goals have not been achieved, but you kid has reaped the greatest benefits in the end."
"Your luck is really enviable. Tsk tsk......"
The smile on Ning Zhuo's face immediately disappeared, and he shook his head bitterly and said: "My lord, after this happened, I received a letter from my family, which held me accountable and reprimanded me heavily."
"To be honest, I am one of the most valued heirs in my clan, shouldering the responsibility of marrying the Nandou royal family."
"As soon as this incident came out, it did make the family very passive, and the relationship with Nandou Kingdom also had great twists and turns."
"Because I made a spontaneous decision, the loss of my clan is much greater than outsiders imagined!"
Ning Zhuo said this, with a heavy face.
Zhao Xi raised his head slightly, his tone inexplicable: "In this case, if you want me to say, why don't you and your family move directly from Nandou Kingdom to Liangzhu Kingdom."
Ning Zhuo shook his head: "If the lord is on top, I will speak bluntly."
"It's almost impossible!"
"First, my clan has worked hard and paid a heavy price, and finally gained a firm foothold in the Fire Persimmon Immortal City of Nandou Kingdom, and it has developed rapidly. If you move to two countries, it is tantamount to starting over, and the cost is too high."
"Second, the two countries border the North Wind Kingdom. If we get too close to the original hostile forces, it will not be good for our clan or to the two countries."
Ning Zhuo said this, stood up, and clenched his fists at Zhao Xi.
His face was full of solemnity: "Therefore, my engagement with General Mulan must be terminated!"
"There are two main reasons why it is still maintained today."
"First, the facts have been made anyway, and my clan has paid the price, so I'm wondering if I can use this layer of identity to do something to come back and make up for some of the family's losses."
"Second, as far as the current military situation is concerned, the Red Flower Camp is the best ally of my three generals' battalion, and I will definitely not break off the engagement with General Mulan during this period. This is not good for all parties!"
"When the time is right, I will make peace with General Mulan as agreed."
Zhao Xi seemed to be relaxed, but in fact his eyes were focused, staring at Ning Zhuo carefully, observing every change in Ning Zhuo's expression.
Zhao Xi only saw frankness and sincerity.
He and Liu Er both breathed a sigh of relief.
General Mu's Mansion is one of the few generals' mansions in the two countries, with a high status. Ning Zhuo has the identity of an uncle, and if he immediately enters the court of the two Zhu countries, he will still be a high-ranking official!
The court of the two countries naturally did not want to see such a foreigner occupying such a position.
Ning Zhuo has long known this.
Therefore, from the beginning, he made his attitude and decision clear to all parties.
Zhao Xi came to the frontline camp this time, shouldering many secret tasks. One of them is to investigate Ning Zhuo and try to determine his views on General Mu's mansion and his own intentions.
Ning Zhuo's answer made Liu Er happy, and Zhao Xi was secretly satisfied.
In this way, Zhao Xi has the motivation to continue this conversation.
Zhao Xi smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Young Master Ning Zhuo, sit down, sit down and talk first! You took the initiative to offer me the creation of the mechanism this time, and your consciousness is extremely high, and this move is beneficial to the army. Whatever you want, I can make the decision here, and I will arrange it for you immediately."
Ning Zhuo also laughed and sat down again as he was told: "I have two main demands."
"One of them is the national strength brick. This kind of treasure, after being used, is too impressive, it can be said that you know the taste of the marrow, and you can't stop."
Zhao Xi laughed: "Yes!"
Ning Zhuo continued: "The second is to see if there is anything that increases the speed of practice."
He explained in detail: "The following is currently the second stage of the foundation building period, that is, the stage of the breeding of treasure medicine."
"What's more embarrassing is that even if you get a new national strength brick, it will be difficult to upgrade your cultivation."
"So, I just want to see if there are any special auxiliary items."
Zhao Xi heard this, pondered for a few breaths, and said clearly: "The exchange list given by the Munitions Department contains a lot of things to assist in practice, and there must be treasures suitable for the breeding stage of treasure medicine."
"However, on Young Master Ning's side, exchanging military achievements for national strength bricks is the first thing."
"Therefore, what Young Master Ning Zhuo really wants is a treasure with excellent utility. I believe that Young Master Ning has already read the exchange list of the Munitions Department, and the effect of the treasures on it is not as satisfactory as you."
Ning Zhuo immediately clasped his hands: "Master Zhao is wise, and he can see my thoughts at a glance."
"Military achievements are limited."
"Of course, I would rather exchange for national strength bricks. After all, such a good thing is really rare. Although there are many cultivation kingdoms, there are too few cases where national strength bricks are used as rewards."
"It can be said that there will be no store after this village."
"Unless there is a certain treasure that is extremely useful and can make me rather spend some military exploits to exchange for it, I am willing to give up some national strength bricks."
"It's just that at the moment, I don't see any such treasures on the list."
Zhao Xi nodded and sighed: "Young Master Ning Zhuo, you are worthy of being from a big family, this request is a bit extravagant."
Liu Er, who had been listening, nodded in agreement after listening to Zhao Xi's evaluation.
For the vast majority of monks, there is no need to invest too many resources in the cultivation of the foundation building period. This is such a waste! Because in the early stage of monks, it is relatively easy to practice, and the cultivation can be easily improved.
But in the first stage of building the foundation, Ning Zhuo used rare treasures such as national strength bricks. In the second stage, I also want to use some treasures that are not inferior to the national strength bricks to speed up my practice.
Is this necessary?
Under normal circumstances, for the vast majority of monks, this is not necessary at all!
Leaving resources for later practice stages is more cost-effective.
Ning Zhuo was young, only sixteen years old. For most young monks, they are still in the qi refining period. Even if there is a genius, if he is promoted to the foundation building period, he will not deliberately seek these treasures to simply increase his cultivation. They are more used in other aspects, such as comprehension exercises, exchanging skills, etc.
Zhao Xi commented that Ning Zhuo's behavior was very extravagant and won Liu Er's heart.
Liu Er recalled carefully that he worked hard during the foundation building period, consuming time, and spent most of his time practicing.
The resources Ning Zhuo consumed at this time, even if he was promoted to the Jindan period, some of them could not be enjoyed!
Especially the national power bricks.
This kind of good thing, Liu Er has never used a piece of it so far.
Previously, he did receive such rewards for his military exploits, but they were all handed over to Guan Hong to help the latter heal quickly.
While Liu Er was envious, he could only sigh that Ning Zhuo was worthy of being the son of a big family.
！
Ning Zhuo explained to the two that this was the first time in his life that he had participated in such a big battle, and his thirst for cultivation had reached the peak of his life, and he desperately hoped that he would be as strong as possible.
Therefore, I was very eager to have such an auxiliary treasure to help my cultivation break through to another stage faster.
This explanation made Liu Er and Zhao Xi add some understanding to Ning Zhuo.
Zhao Xi recalled the information and felt that Ning Zhuo's move was quite reasonable. After all, the latter's combat power is as high as the Jindan level, and at present, the biggest shortcoming lies in Ning Zhuo himself. Reinforcing weaknesses is actually the right choice.
However, Ning Zhuo did not hesitate to spend so much money, which was unreasonable, which surprised people and envied him in his heart.
Zhao Xi pondered: "I think carefully, there is indeed such a treasure in my royal treasure house."
"At that time, the envoy of the Three Yangs Kingdom visited as a diplomatic gift and gave a talisman to the royal family."
"The treasure talisman is called the three-wall treasure talisman. The royal family of the Three Yang Kingdom majored in "Three Yang Tai Yuan Gong", and evolved from the content of the scriptures, using the black magnetic jade sand tempered by the three lights of the sun, moon and stars as ink, drawing runes on the thousand-year-old yin-yang sycamore leaves, and finally integrating the powder ground by the dragon tendons, which is considered a great achievement."
"The quality of these treasure talismans is as high as the level of magic weapons, and they can be used repeatedly. After consuming to a certain extent, you can still add materials on its basis, make it again, and add a lot of uses."
"As we all know, "Three Yang Tai Yuan Gong" has the meaning of all things to grow, and it is the top treasure in the world. In the early stage of the god transformation level, the three yang distractions could be separated, which was extremely powerful. In the breeding stage of treasure medicine, it is even more pediatric for "Sanyang Tai Yuan Gong"."
"If Young Master Ning Zhuo can exchange for this treasure, it is equivalent to having some of the cultivation advantages of "Three Yang Tai Yuan Gong" in the foundation building stage!"
Ning Zhuo couldn't help but be moved: "According to my lord's wishes, can these national treasures also be exchanged for military exploits?"
Zhao Xi laughed: "Of course, normal channels are not good, but isn't there still me?"
Ning Zhuo immediately understood, handed out a storage bag, and told Zhao Xi that after the matter was completed, there would be double gifts.
Zhao Xi's consciousness swept away, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up, and he took the storage bag into his arms proudly.
The atmosphere in the room couldn't help but be more harmonious.
The three of them chatted again.
It was mainly Zhao Xi and Ning Zhuo who communicated, and Liu Er occasionally interjected.
"It's getting late, I still have business to deal with."
Before leaving, Zhao Xi looked at Ning Zhuo and then at Liu Er: "You are all my people, in the next period of time, you must make good contributions, the more meritorious you are, the more face I will have."
"Since you have all offered mechanical creations, you are enlightened."
"Don't always stare at some things on the battlefield, although there are good treasures, can they be compared with military achievements?"
"Especially those hills near our barracks, the strongholds of those forces, are very fruitful."
Liu Er and Ning Zhuo immediately heard the implication.
Ning Zhuo asked: "After cleaning the battlefield, shouldn't we attack the Dragon King Giant Wood Mountain with all our might?"
Although the Dragon King Giant Wood Mountain was knocked down by Tieliu Pingchuan, because of the divine light and divine magic to protect the body, the mountain was well preserved, and it changed from a vertical state to a horizontal state. The losses on the Dragon King Giant Tree Mountain were limited, and there were a large number of Dragon King Temples, and there were still many stubborn forces holding on here.
Zhao Xi shook his head: "Before Du Tiechuan retreated from his injuries, he issued a military strategy - to control the Dragon King Giant Wood Mountain but not attack. I am just a military supervisor, and I can't change this army at all, and I don't want to change it."
"So, after cleaning the battlefield, your armies will bloom everywhere and quickly attack the surrounding strongholds."
Liu Er frowned: "The Dragon King Giant Wood Mountain is a must-save place for the Dragon King Temple in Sanxu, and Du Shuai wants to attract the enemy here for the second battle."
"No wonder he is here, spending so much money to build such a strong camp. Until now, there are still monks who continue to work."
Ning Zhuo added: "Therefore, before the second battle, the range of our army's attacks is also limited."
"There are not many targets around that can be attacked."
Zhao Xi laughed: "You all realized this, I didn't say anything. That's it, let's go first."
Ning Zhuo and Liu Er both got up, followed Zhao Xi, and sent them all the way out of the camp.
When parting, Zhao Xi sent a message to Ning Zhuo again: "By the way, can you make a fortune telling for the second battle?"
寧拙之前的讖言詩很准，讓趙熙也念念不忘。
Ning Zhuo immediately smiled bitterly: "My ability can only be successful when I feel something in my heart. Other times, nothing can be done at all. I hope you will forgive me!"
"Then forget it." Zhao Xi rode on a tall horse and left directly.
Liu Er looked at Zhao Xi's back as he left, and at the same time conveyed his consciousness to Ning Zhuo, thanking him for recommending Zhao Xi for him this time.
Ning Zhuo responded secretly: "It's also a coincidence. Zhao Xi wanted to reap military merits, so he did not hesitate to take risks and came to the frontline camp."
"When he first arrived, he must establish his reputation, as the saying goes, the new official has three fires when he takes office."
"Our matter is exactly what he needs, so we reached a cooperation."
Liu Er sighed: "Having said that, without the relationship between military divisions and the creation of institutions, how could such results be achieved?"
With Zhao Xi's close relationship, Liu Er, an outsider, can be regarded as having roots in the court of the two countries.
This is a very big breakthrough!
Liu Er was taught by his master since he was a child, and his political talent was good, which made him understand that he was the biggest beneficiary in this matter.
So, he returned the favor and immediately promised Ning Zhuo: "Military strategist, no matter how much military achievements the Sanyuan Treasure Talisman is worth, I am willing to give my military achievements to you. If it is not enough, I will come forward again and persuade the two virtuous brothers, and I will do my best to make you get what you want!"
Ning Zhuo smiled, did not refuse, and only responded with one word: "Okay."
At present, the results of cleaning the battlefield have been converted into military achievements, and they are hanging on Liu Er alone.
After all, he is the main general of the Three Generals Battalion.
This kind of limelight and jealous thing, Ning Zhuo didn't want to do.
According to the previous agreement between Ning Zhuo and the three generals, 30% of this military exploit belonged to him.
However, in order to push Liu Er to the top of the list, there is no distribution between them for the time being.
The top position can greatly increase the reputation of the three generals' battalion and facilitate the subsequent gathering of remnants.
This is another layer of consideration.
