Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 139 Three surprises
out the door.

Li Rui suddenly transformed himself from deputy helmsman to deputy leader of the alliance.

Compared to the promotion of An Ning Wei, the promotion of Tian Di Meng is much simpler.

It just took Ning Zhongtian a word.

“A pleasant surprise.”

This trip to see Ning Zhongtian brought quite a few unexpected surprises. Li Rui smiled and shook his head.

Not long after he walked out of Ning's house.

Lines of small words appeared before his eyes.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the primary plot of becoming famous - deputy leader. ]

[You are no longer a rookie who has just entered the arena. You have been appreciated by noble people. Step by step, you have transformed from an unknown little fish to a deputy leader. Please continue to make your contribution to the justice of the arena! ]

[Complete the task of deputy leader, rewards are being calculated]

【Task score C.】

【Get 20 achievement points! 】

【Name: Li Rui】

【Age: 10】

[Talent: Martial Bones, Outstanding Comprehension, Spiritual Eyes]

[Kung Fu: Changchun Gong, Dragon Traveling to the Nine Skies]

[Achievement: 60/100]

“A pleasant surprise.”

This is the third time Li Rui has said this word.

After coming to Ning Mansion, the benefits I gained were beyond my imagination.

One great achievement, of course, cannot compare to the room full of treasures that Li Rui has collected during this period.

But those things didn't belong to him in the first place.

It was an unexpected joy to gain a great achievement.

He has always been open-minded about gains and losses.

But he didn't expect that Ning Zhongtian would actually give him the position of deputy leader. As a chain reaction, he completed the achievement and the system gave him another reward.

"It's too simple, I won't be able to adapt to it."

Li Rui's mouth corners slightly raised.

Forget it, he is only ten years old.

It's normal to be a little genius, right?

Li Rui left Ning Mansion and did not go to the Tiger Cavalry, but went straight back to his house.

Who would choose to go to work when they can slack off?
“Is this the joy of being the best seller?”

This is what the patrol position is like. As long as you can solve the problem, you can be very comfortable. But if you can't, you can only stay in the camp obediently. Even if you don't get any credit, at least you can get some recognition for your hard work.

Just when Li Rui was practicing with the sword.

There was a bang on the door.

The person knocking on the door was very strong.

Wang Zhao in the courtyard was startled. When he was hesitating whether to open the door, Li Rui came over.

He patted Wang Zhao on the shoulder and said, "Let me do it."

Li Rui was not worried. This was An Ning Wei, and no one was bold enough to attack a patrolman in broad daylight.

Although the patrol officer was only of the seventh rank, he was also an official appointed by the imperial court registered in the Ministry of Personnel.

What is an imperial official?

The court is responsible for your life. If you die, it will be a matter that alarms the whole country and must be thoroughly investigated.

No matter whether you are a martial arts master or a gangster, you must die.

Li Rui pushed open the door.

"Brother Tan?"

He looked at the angry Tan Hu standing at the door, and the timid Benhu riders who shrank their necks, and immediately understood.

Li Rui laughed: "What's the matter?"

Tan Hu stared at Li Rui with his eyes like copper bells: "Brother Li, I respect you as an elder, but I am really angry that you hang out with those dirty scoundrels."

Li Rui raised his right hand and patted Tan Hu on the shoulder.

"Come in and talk."

Seeing that Li Rui looked calm and composed, and Tan Hu was not a complete rogue, he had no choice but to patiently follow Li Rui into the main hall with a group of Benhu Riders.

Li Rui asked everyone to sit down, and then he spoke:
"What do you think we should do, Brother Tan?"

Tan Hu said in a muffled voice: "Deal with it according to the laws of the Yu Kingdom."

Li Rui hummed: "That makes sense, but Brother Tan, who is going to catch those people, you?"

Tan Hu was silent.

After a long time, he spoke: "I can't beat those people."

Of course, he was referring to the deputy owner of Qingfeng Villa and the deputy leader of Mingguang Sect, both of whom were sixth-rank warriors. Even if Tan Hu was very strong, he could not be a match for those two.

Li Rui nodded: "That's right. As the Art of War says, the best strategy is to attack the enemy's plans, the next best is to attack their alliances, the next best is to attack their troops, and the worst is to attack their cities. Since we can't win, we have to think of another way."

Tan Hu's eyes lit up:
"Brother Li also knows the art of war?"

Li Rui: “I know a little bit.”

When Tan Hu heard that Li Rui knew about military tactics, his anger disappeared: "Brother Li, then tell me how to do it in this military tactic?"

Li Rui: "Show the enemy your softness and sneak through Chencang."

Tan Hu was stunned by Li Rui's words, but was too embarrassed to ask any more questions. His face turned red, and he finally uttered six words: "I will listen to Brother Li."

"Boss Ning is right. Brother Li is a very capable person. He is even proficient in the art of war!"

He thought to himself.

See this.

Li Rui slowly picked up the teacup brought by Wang Zhao and took a sip.

He had already read Tan Hu's information.

He originally served as a frontier soldier in the north. Later, he performed well and was injured. He was transferred back to the Annan Army with preferential treatment. Later, he was valued by Ning Zhongtian and brought to the Anning Guard.

There are many noble people along the way.

All Tan Hu needs to do is to be a brave general and charge into battle.

But the Annan Army is not a border army, and there is no concrete enemy, so things are more complicated to deal with. It is not a life-and-death battle, but a life-and-death battle.

"It's almost time, let's go back."

"Okay."

Tan Hu grinned and strode out happily.

The others watched as Li Rui subdued the furious Tan Hu with just a few words, and they all secretly praised Li Xunshou for his ability.

After everyone left.

Li Rui then slowly exhaled.

The hand holding the armchair loosened.

Others may think it is nothing but as the person involved, it is not easy at all. Tan Hu was born with a strong character and has a murderous aura. No wonder he could beat up all the elders of Ming Guangzong.

To deal with such an irritable person, in addition to appeasing him, you must also be prepared to take action.

Do you really think that Li Rui is confident and relaxed, leaning back on the chair with his hands?

wrong.

Li Rui hid a knife in the armrest of his chair to prevent anyone from being unreasonable and suddenly attacking him.

“There are still many good people.”

He smiled faintly.

Being able to calm Tan Hu down proves that this person has a good heart.

As for the chaos in those sects.
Li Rui naturally has his own judgment criteria. If he touches some areas that should not be touched, then the hand that has touched must be cut off!

It hurts to recognize it.

Blacksmith shop.

The sound of hammering wrought iron was endless, and as soon as you walked in, the scorching heat hit you in the face.

Li Rui walked as if nothing had happened.

soon.

He came to the strong man's shop.

"Have you prepared your weapons?"

When the sturdy man saw that it was Li Rui, he immediately smiled and said, "Master Li, you are here!"

Li Rui chuckled.

Who said this Khan is ignorant of the ways of the world? Now he seems quite smart.

"But I still like your rebellious look."

The sturdy man asked Li Rui to sit down and said, "Master Li, I have already forged your weapon. I will go get it for you right away."

"Go."

Li Rui laughed and waved his hand.

After a while.

The sturdy man came out with a sheathed long sword, opening the curtain. With him came a middle-aged man with a happy smile.

"Master Li, this is a sword made especially for you. It uses eight catties of Golden Dragon Iron and fifteen catties of Black Gold Iron."

The middle-aged man was about to give a lengthy introduction.

Li Rui listened patiently.

After talking for a long time, the blacksmith shop was already stuffy and the middle-aged man also felt dry mouth.

Li Rui pointed at the burly man and said, "Do you have anything to say?"

The sturdy man looked at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged class leader nodded: "Go ahead."

The strong man then added: "Master Li, I heard that Master Li likes close combat, so he used a sword of the barrier type, three feet and one inch long, weighing twenty-three pounds, and extremely sharp."

Li Rui nodded with satisfaction:

“It took some thought.”

A sword-making master of the State of Yu once established the four styles of long swords, which are the ceremonial sword, the barrier sword, the Mo sword and the horizontal sword.

As the name suggests, the ceremonial sword is a ceremonial sword, which is often equipped by the imperial guards or personal guards and has a gorgeous shape.

The barrier sword is shorter than the horizontal sword and is suitable for close combat and maneuvering in a small space.

The Mo Dao is a double-edged long sword, mostly used in horse battles.

As for the horizontal sword, it is also the most common sword type, which was improved from the ring-handled sword.

Of course, these are the four systems formulated by that great man.

But in actual production, there are many variations and no absolute formula.

Li Rui took the knife from the strong man.

Weigh it slightly.

"Not bad!"

Then he held the hilt with his right hand and the scabbard with his left hand, and with a swish, the long sword was unsheathed!

A cold light flashed.

Li Rui didn't even need to do any tricks to know that this was a good knife: "It's a good knife."

See Li Rui is satisfied.

The middle-aged foreman rubbed his hands and said, "Sir, this knife costs three thousand gold in total."

This is still the internal price of An Ningwei, otherwise the price would be more than 50% higher.

Li Rui was not surprised.

He often went to the black market and was very familiar with the price of the sacred iron. This price was not exaggerated.

"Row."

Then he took out three silver bills from his pocket.

"The total is three thousand gold. Please check it for me, foreman."

The middle-aged team leader was very happy.

They can save themselves a lot of trouble by meeting such a straightforward person.

He said, "Master Li, how can I not believe you?"

But the hands holding the silver bills behind his back were not idle. He rubbed the silver bills again and again to determine their authenticity. This is a necessary skill for a squad leader.

After confirming that the banknote was genuine, he couldn't stop smiling:

"Master Li, if you want to buy a knife again in the future, remember to look for me."

Li Rui chuckled: "Yes."

Then he said, "I still have some questions. Let me ask this brother to help me. Maybe the team leader can help me?"

"Ok, Ok!"

The middle-aged team leader agreed without even thinking about it.

The sturdy man nodded and followed Li Rui out of the blacksmith shop.

What surprised him was that Li Rui didn't say a word the whole time and didn't show any intention of asking him any questions.

Until he was far away from the blacksmith shop.

The strong man was almost going crazy.

Li Rui then stopped and took out a silver note of 100 taels from his pocket and stuffed it into the man's pocket:

"Take this, take it."

The sturdy man widened his eyes and said, "Master Li, this is not allowed."

He was about to give in.

Li Rui smiled and said, "Just take it when I tell you to."

The sturdy man only felt that the old man in front of him was incredibly strong, and he was completely unable to resist, and the banknote just fell into his hands.

Li Rui waved his hand: "Go ahead, this is my separate payment to you."

The strong man didn't know what to say for a moment.

A big man's eyes turned red: "Thank you, Master Li."
