Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 215 Captain Li is mighty

"Li Rui wins!"

The three words fell clearly into everyone's ears.

The dragon dissipated.

But the soldiers watching were still immersed in the shocking scene that had just happened.

"dragon!"

I believe that the scene just now will be unforgettable for them forever.

Who says the image of the dragon is too sacred in people's minds?

Cao Wei looked at Li Rui.

With his perspective, he could actually see that Li Rui was taking advantage of the situation.

Li Rui knew that he had the form of a dragon.

But the key to Li Rui's victory today was no longer the suppression of Qi, but the meticulous layout throughout the whole process.

It is estimated that Li Rui had already investigated Qi Ze's background and martial arts weapons from the beginning.

An Ning Wei has all this information, it just depends on how to use it.

So he used a heavy sword at the beginning to suppress Qi Ze with the advantage of swordsmanship.

Qi Ze was a proud man and insisted on competing with Li Rui in weapons.

Use your own weaknesses to attack others' strengths.

The outcome can be imagined.

Then he got angry and used his ultimate move directly.

This was exactly what Li Rui wanted. If Qi Ze had competed in internal or external strength, he might have been wary, but he chose Li Rui's most domineering dragon form.

Among all the forms in the world, there are not many that are higher in rank than the dragon form.

At least not Crane Shape.

So losing is inevitable.

To put it bluntly, Qi Ze was completely under Li Rui's control.

It seems to be full of twists and turns, but in fact it is as steady as an old dog.

Of course, the premise of these calculations must be that Li Rui is strong enough.

The strength Li Rui demonstrated today far exceeded Cao Wei's expectations.

"good."

Jiang Linxian spoke first.

Then Ning Zhongtian's laughter rang out: "I admit defeat, I admit defeat, my elder brother is unmatched in the world!"

Li Rui stood there quietly, not moving.

In the eyes of others, it seemed as if he was showing the demeanor of a master.

In fact, he was reviewing the game.

"Well, about 70%."

Almost 70% of his strength was used in this battle.

"No more, this is the limit."

If there are more, I am afraid he can only open the immortal form, which is his trump card that he cannot show to the outside world. Maybe he will have to add the hidden edge. If he counts the hidden edge, he must also add the sword-raising style.
"Okay."

A smile returned to Li Rui’s face.

He said to Qi Ze who was helped up by Cao Wei: "Thank you."

Qi Ze's eyes were complicated, but he could afford to lose. He clasped his fists for the first time and said, "Thank you."

As soon as these words came out.

Li Rui's position as the commander of the Ministry of Commerce was secured.

Qi Ze didn't say anything.

He knows.

If Li Rui had not retracted 70% of his strength at the last moment, he would probably not just be in a state of disgrace now, but would have had no problem lying down for three months.

There's nothing much to say, I'm just not as skilled as others.

Born into a Duke's mansion, he has a high spirit, but he would not do such a despicable thing as refusing to admit defeat.

Done.

He felt too embarrassed to stay any longer, so he said something to Cao Wei and turned to leave.

Seeing this scene, all the soldiers of Anning Guard fled in panic.

"Captain Li is mighty!"

I don't know which hoarse voice started howling first.

In short.

Just like the first sound of a firecracker, it instantly ignited the atmosphere in the martial arts arena.

Fortunately, Li Rui did not sink to the sound of being called "Captain Li".

But I have to admit.

It really feels great.

Jiang Linxian also came over at this time.

To be honest, he was a little worried just now. After all, it concerned the emperor. If he messed up, he would definitely feel bad.

Although he arranged Ning Zhongtian as a backup, it is not difficult to see from Qi Ze's performance just now that this man has hidden his strength. Even if Ning Zhongtian comes on the court, he may not be his opponent.

Fighting is not just a comparison of strength on paper, the outcome is unpredictable.

If Li Rui can win, he can completely eliminate the variables.

He smiled and said, "Brother Li, I owe you a favor."

These words fell into Ning Zhongtian's ears.

I'm so envious that I'm crying.

Qinghe has a saying:
"Gold and silver are small matters, human relationships are big matters."

That was a favor from Jiang Linxian. In some ways, it was more valuable than the fourteen great merits.

He didn't even play.

Of course I don’t have that blessing.

Moreover, he thought that even if he came to power, he might not be Qi Ze's opponent.

Li Rui was also delighted and bowed: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Linxian just felt that Li Rui was a brilliant move on his part.

He laughed out loud, which was rare for him, and walked away.

Everything has been settled, and there is no point in staying any longer.

Cao Wei also left with his three men.

Soon, Li Rui was surrounded by soldiers who were watching the fun.

The strong have always been respected in the army. In the past, Li Rui convinced people with his virtue and they all respected him on the surface. Now he convinces people directly with his force. They regard Li Rui as an idol from the bottom of their hearts.

Don’t think about it, playing with a dragon is every man’s ultimate dream!
Although there are few people in the world who possess the shape of a dragon, they do exist. However, there are not many who can practice the dragon shape to the point of being able to release their true energy.

At least in Anningwei, Li Rui is unique.

"Master Li, please release the dragon again so that our brothers can have a better understanding of it."

"Old handsome!"

"Come on, come on."

Looking at the crowd making a fuss.

Li Rui just smiled slightly, and just when everyone thought they would not see Dalong today.

next moment.

The dragon appears again.

Zuixian Tower.

"Brother Li, you really are a person who never reveals his true colors. I didn't expect you to be so strong!"

Wei Ming looked at Li Rui. Besides him, Ning Zhongtian, Ge Hong, and Tan Hu were also there.

What happened to Li Rui yesterday has spread throughout Anningwei.

Today is a celebration banquet specially held for Li Rui.

"It's just some tricks."

Li Rui remains the same as always.

He did not become estranged from his previous friends just because he was promoted.

little tricks?
Wei Ming doesn't think so.

Based on his understanding of Li Rui, everything must have been prepared long ago.

If he is not 100% sure, Li Rui will choose to admit defeat rather than go on the court.

Several people looked at Li Rui with envy in their eyes.

Sixth rank colonel.

They are afraid that they will never have this opportunity in their lifetime.

Among them, Wei Ming and Ge Hong were the ones who were most deeply touched.

When they met Li Rui, he was still their subordinate, and then step by step they became colleagues, and now he has become their superior.

This change is really regrettable.

"Brother Li, you don't have any more tricks up your sleeve, do you?"

Wei Ming suddenly had an idea.

Li Rui laughed and scolded: "Do you really think I am like those geniuses? If I had that ability, would I have to pretend to be a grandson for so long?"

Wei Ming nodded.

That makes sense.

According to what Jiang Linxian said before, Li Rui was valued when he was a groom in the Zhu family, and then he was taught martial arts and continued to be undercover in Qinghe.

Li Rui’s talent was definitely not very good, and he started practicing martial arts when he was at least in his fifties or sixties.

If he was really gifted, how could Jiang Linxian let such a genius work as a groom forever?

Qi Ze, the genius who was able to defeat the Duke of Wei's Mansion, must have used all his strength.

Ge Hong said at this time: "Come, let's toast to Brother Li together."

Li Rui was promoted.

And his official position was Si Ma Xiao Wei.

The status is extremely special.

Unlike the garrison commander, the commander of the Ministry of Commerce was mainly responsible for assisting in the management of the trade between the two countries.

The trade between the two countries is a major event that His Majesty the Emperor is personally overseeing.

As Li Rui became the commander of Simao, his power must be considerable.

Ning Zhongtian said: "Wait for the document from the Ministry of Personnel to come down, and then we'll get him drunk for three days and three nights!"

"What Ning Touer said makes sense."

Because of Qi Ze's interference, Li Rui's appointment documents are now returned to the Ministry of Personnel.

Have to wait to go through the process again.

However, Li Rui has already defeated Qi Ze, so there shouldn't be any more surprises.

Just as a few people were toasting each other.

There was a sudden noise downstairs.

"Die Die, Die Die, what a big tiger!"

"This is a demon beast!"

"My goodness, how dare that person ride on a monster beast."

There were constant exclamations.

Upon hearing this, Li Rui and others turned around and looked downstairs.

I saw.

On the wide streets of Qinghe New City, there was a group of people wearing strange clothes, covering themselves with animal skins, with burly figures and strange patterns painted on their faces. These were things that the people of Yu had never seen before.

What is even more shocking is the mounts those people are riding.

Neither a cow, nor a horse, nor a donkey.

But a monster.

"Green-haired white-tailed tiger, nine-horned silver lizard, purple-maned spider."

Li Rui upstairs recognized the origins of these monsters at a glance.

The evil spirits are rising to the sky.

Most of the ordinary people in Qinghe had never even seen a monster in their lives, so they looked at the group of people on the street as if they were monsters.

Ning Zhongtian looked at him, his eyes narrowed slightly:
"It's Wu people."

"I heard that the Wu Kingdom sent a team of envoys to check the place where the City Trade Bureau was established. They should be them."

"Normally, it should arrive tomorrow, how come it's early?"

Wei Ming, Ge Hong and others looked at it in surprise.

Although Qinghe is very close to southern Xinjiang.

But that doesn’t mean you are familiar with southern Xinjiang.

It can even be said that most officials and people in Yunzhou know very little about Southern Xinjiang.

Who asked the Wu Kingdom to be in a closed state before?

The borders between the two countries are guarded by a large number of troops.

Except for some smugglers with connections, no one else has the chance to come into contact with them.

The same goes for these Annan Army soldiers. At most they would take a look from afar while patrolling.

On Qinghe Street.

The Wu Kingdom's delegation slowly drove towards the county government office.

A girl with healthy wheat-colored skin and two cute fangs rode a saber-toothed black tiger in the middle of the team, her strong calves clamping the black tiger's belly.

She looked east and west.

Everything I see seems new and interesting.

"Hey, the people of Yu are so perverted, why is tofu pudding sweet?"

She was just about to ask how to buy tofu pudding.

He was stopped by a burly man behind him:
"Xiaotang, behave yourself. Have you heard the instructions from the great wizard?"

"Oh."

The girl named Xiaotang said "oh".

She was about to turn around and continue looking.

Suddenly I felt a gaze cast at me from above my head.

She tilted her little head back.

Then his eyes happened to meet an old man on the tall wooden building in the air.

Instantly.

She felt as if she had fallen into an icy cave, as if she was being stared at by a beast god. Her body swayed and she almost fell off the saber-toothed black tiger.

Fortunately, the sturdy man behind him reacted quickly enough.

Then he grabbed her.

"Xiaotang, what's wrong?"

The girl's face turned pale, and it took her a long time to force a smile.

"Nothing."

He lowered his head, shrank his body, and dared not look in the direction he had just been in. He muttered to himself:
"The Great Witch is right. The people of Yu are all monsters."

Heart pounding:
"It's terrible. The people of Yu are terrible."
