Died of old age, and you tell me this is a life simulation?

Chapter 539: The Current Situation of Lin Pingzhi and Linghu Chong! There Are No Private Soldiers in Daqian!

Inside the barracks.

Lin Pingzhi looked at Chen Youliang, who was chatting and laughing with the new recruits a little distance away, with some confusion. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that this comrade was very shrewd and seemed heroic, but in fact he was not an easy person to get along with. However, he felt that something was wrong in the past two days.

In other words, the person's behavior seems to have changed, and he has become more sincere to others.

Illusion? Delusion?

Lin Pingzhi didn't understand, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. His attention returned to the person in front of him, with a helpless expression.

"Brother Linghu, how many times has this happened?"

The person in front of him was none other than his senior brother Linghu Chong from the Huashan Sect at that time.

It's amazing to say.

When he wanted to join the Daqian Army, he was scolded and stopped by Senior Brother Lu. However, this senior brother took the initiative to let him go. He trained in the barracks for a month, practiced in seclusion in the Military Academy for a month, and went out to suppress bandits for a month or two. After going around in circles, he met this senior brother again in the army. What was even more unexpected was that at that time, the other party was a new recruit assigned there, but he became his immediate superior. It must be said that this fate was very strange.

certainly......

Seeing this senior brother, although they looked at each other awkwardly and the atmosphere was weird, after all, the other party had taken the initiative to let him go and did not force him to stay. In addition, although their relationship was not very good, there was no conflict either. Therefore, Lin Pingzhi still had relative respect for this senior brother Linghu and did not have the idea of ​​becoming arrogant once he gained power.

The main reason is that in the Daqian military system, although there are distinctions between superiors and subordinates, it is different from the previous situation where the commander-in-chief holds the power of life and death over his subordinates. If you act according to the rules, then everything will be fine. But if you target soldiers for no reason, or even injure or kill them, then you can just wait to be dealt with by military law.

There are no private soldiers in Daqian. They are all Daqian's soldiers, the soldiers of His Majesty the Emperor of Daqian, the soldiers of the Heavenly Family! They are not the private soldiers of any family or surname.

Under such a military system, not to mention that Lin Pingzhi was not a proud and brave general, even if he was, he could not act arrogantly, unless he gave up his future or even his life. He could act arrogantly, but the price he paid would be extremely heavy.

Lin Pingzhi naturally abided by military laws and regulations. Linghu Chong was an acquaintance of his, and the other party was also gifted in martial arts, so he took good care of him.

This is what goes with one's heart and what goes with the trend. If Linghu Chong can succeed in the future, he will have this good connection, which also serves as a network of contacts, so they can help each other.

In the end, Lin Pingzhi still felt grateful to the Huashan Sect. No matter what, the Huashan Sect had protected him, and this could not be denied. So when he met Linghu Chong from the Huashan Sect, he was willing to show goodwill.

However......

What he didn't expect was that this Senior Brother Linghu really had a dissolute nature that was hard to change. In the barracks, he was bound by military laws and regulations, but once he was outside, he couldn't help but violate the military's prohibition on alcohol and drank secretly. Although this was not a fundamental discipline, as long as he didn't make mistakes or cause trouble because of alcohol, there would generally not be too severe a punishment. However, in fact, it was not a small one. Major and minor offenses would be recorded on his military resume, which would greatly affect his subsequent promotion. In addition, he did not change his ways after repeated warnings, and the punishment was getting heavier and heavier, and his resume became increasingly ugly.

So much so that after several months in the army, some of the new recruits who joined at the same time as him are now captains, or at least sergeants or squad leaders, in charge of five, ten, or even dozens of people. But he is still just a private.

Among the new recruits, he stood out and became exceptionally conspicuous.

After Lin Pingzhi taught him for a while, he suddenly understood why he was only a month or two behind himself, but was still at the lowest level. It could only be said that it was purely his own fault.

Linghu Chong looked quite embarrassed when Lin Pingzhi said that.

This is indeed a bit embarrassing.

At least he was the other party's senior brother, but now he has become a pawn under the other party. How miserable...

In addition, every time he saw Lin Pingzhi, he couldn't help but recall the conversation in the inn, in which he said with certainty that "the martial arts have always been passed down and will never be easily passed on to outsiders."

And these words were severely slapped in the face in this barracks.

The superior and profound martial arts [Small Zhoutian Guiyuan Posture] can be learned in just a few days, and the divine and unique [Small Zhoutian Gong] can be started in just a month...

Thinking about what he had said before, he felt his face flushed.

"Alas, you know my situation. I feel very uncomfortable if I don't drink for a day. I have endured it for a long time in this barracks. Now that I can go out, how can I control my mouth?" Linghu Chong dispelled his thoughts, shook his head and sighed.

He also knew that doing so would only harm his future, but the days without alcohol were really hard to endure, and there were too many rules in the barracks. He was still a little uncomfortable and felt very restrained.

Lin Pingzhi suggested: "With your personality, you are not suitable for staying in the army at all. It would be better for you to develop somewhere else. Maybe it will be more successful."

"I want to, too! I heard Sixth Junior Brother joined the brewery, brewing quite a few novelties and making quite a few achievements. He was even promoted to an official, managing quite a few people. Well, that's a great place, I've always wanted to go there." Linghu Chong's eyes lit up slightly, but he was also a little dejected. "But Master has forced me to join this barracks. I can't leave even if I want to."

After hearing this, Lin Pingzhi wanted to laugh but held it back.

I thought to myself, if a drunkard like you goes to a winery, what's the difference between that and letting a cat watch fish or a monkey watch a peach orchard?

Don't commit embezzlement and get yourself into jail.

Shaking his head secretly, Lin Pingzhi said, "Brother Linghu, you said you wanted to leave but you can't, but I don't think so. If you continue to violate military regulations, you won't be able to leave even if you want to. However...if Mr. Yue finds out about this, I'm afraid it won't be easy for you."

Linghu Chong's expression changed. He had a vague anticipation of leaving the barracks, but also a fear of how to face his master's anger after leaving.

Lin Pingzhi didn't continue chatting. He had little free time and he would have to go out to suppress the bandits in a couple of days.

By the way, the bandit problem in the Huainan area has been almost eliminated. I wonder if I can be transferred to the front line when the time comes.

That's a good place to achieve success.

When Lin Pingzhi thought about this, he was quite looking forward to it.

Now, he has been tempered and transformed in the army. It is no longer just for revenge, but he sincerely hopes to make some achievements.

As for the deep blood feud, he hadn't forgotten it either. It was just that, at the moment, he didn't have the ability to get that far, not even having a way to get information. What could he do? Another thing was, based on his own experience in the military, he was extremely confident that if the Qingcheng Sect came under the rule of Daqian, they would definitely be brought to justice.

And where is the Qingcheng Sect? Chengdu Fu Road!

This was already under the rule of Daqian.

Lin Pingzhi thought carefully, perhaps his blood feud had already been settled quietly?

Not completely sure, but 90% sure.

The remaining 10% was because they were afraid that the Qingcheng Sect would slip through the net.

All he had to do was probably go and confirm one or two things.

In this case, the only enemy I have left is most likely Mu Gaofeng. Unfortunately, his whereabouts are elusive and cannot be confirmed at all.

certainly......

It is also possible that he had already been arrested and put on trial by the Daqian army.

When Lin Pingzhi thought of this, he felt happy and sighed at the same time.

Chapter 540: Broken Promise! Unpredictable Things! Rethink!

Jinling.

On the edge of the city, in a small courtyard, the Six Freaks of Jiangnan and Guo Jing lived here.

Having been in Jinling for quite some time, it was naturally impossible for them to stay in the inn all the time. Considering the future, the Six Freaks of Jiangnan thought about it and decided to buy a small courtyard on the edge of the city.

As for those good locations in the center, not to mention the issue of whether to sell them or not, no one is willing to sell them.

Everyone knows that the land deeds here are treasures that can be passed down from generation to generation.

At this time, five of the Six Freaks of Jiangnan were present, talking about the destruction of the Western Xia Kingdom, and their words were quite happy.

It's hard not to be excited about something like this.

The Six Freaks of Jiangnan were all chivalrous men with the righteousness of the country in their hearts. Faced with such a great victory, they were naturally moved and excited.

As they talked about this, they couldn't help but bring up some old unresolved matters: "Jing'er, after we complete this eighteen-year agreement, we will go to the desert to bring your mother back and settle here."

Guo Jing nodded. He had witnessed and experienced the prosperity of Daqian with his own eyes, and he also knew that his mother had always missed her homeland. Naturally, he had no objection to this arrangement.

Han Baoju smiled and said, "When everything is done, Jing'er should get married and start a family. Let's not talk about getting married for now, but starting a career is something we can consider first. There are many places with good prospects under the rule of Daqian. Jing'er has been skilled in archery and horse riding since he was a child. Perhaps joining the army would be a good choice? Now is the time for development, and there will be no shortage of opportunities to make achievements."

Han Xiaoying frowned and said, "Although the military is good, it is also dangerous. Jing'er...it would be better for him to see if there is a good and stable job."

Nan Xiren disagreed: "A true man should make great achievements on the battlefield. Moreover, Daqian has a strong military force and the status of warriors is no longer as low as it was in the Song Dynasty. Since Jing'er has such a talent, how can we abandon him?"

Ke Zhen'e said, "Let Jing'er figure it out for herself. Then we can bring Mrs. Guo back and work it out in detail."

Although their masters can arrange it, they also need to discuss it with their mother.

"Speaking of which, the agreed date isn't far away. Should we set off first?"

"There are still three or four months left. It's useless to go so early."

"You can take a trip and see the changes in Jiangnan."

After hearing this, everyone was a little moved.

They were all from Jiangnan, and this time they only stopped in Nanjing. However, Nanjing was not actually their hometown, and they all wanted to go back and take a look.

"It's fine to travel around Jiangnan, but I'm afraid there's no point in keeping the appointment!"

At this time, a voice sounded outside the yard.

Not long after, Zhu Cong walked in with a somewhat grim expression.

Ke Zhenwu, Han Baoju, and Han Xiaoying all changed color. Guo Jing was also stunned, not knowing why.

I don't know why you say there is no point in going on a date?

Isn't this the main purpose of this journey south?

"Second brother, what do you mean by this?!" Han Xiaoying asked with a frown.

Han Baoju was anxious and kept asking questions. The others didn't say much, but they were all waiting for Zhu Cong to explain.

This concerns an 18-year agreement, how could they not take it seriously?

Zhu Cong sat down and sighed. "Just now, a Quanzhen Taoist priest in the city specially delivered a letter. It was written by Taoist Qiu, saying that he could not keep the appointment and apologizing. We did not break the appointment, but he is going to break his promise."

Ke Zhen'e sneered, "We traveled to the desert for over ten years just to make a promise to him, and he just said he couldn't keep it and we gave up!? What did he say in the letter? Tell me in detail."

Zhu Cong took out the letter from his pocket and said, "About this...Master Qiu broke his promise, but there is indeed a reason..."

However, Qiu Chuji naturally did not want to break his promise, but he did not expect that the world would change. The Jin Dynasty was now being attacked by both Daqian and the Mongols, and was on the verge of collapse. The country was in danger of being destroyed at any time. Yang Kang, or Wanyan Kang, was in the Zhaowang Mansion of the Jin Dynasty, and was inevitably affected.

All the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were captured by Daqian. The offensive was so swift that the Jin Kingdom was forced to move its capital and flee. The Prince of Zhao's Mansion was also deserted. Qiu Chuji couldn't even think of finding his disciple. The Jin Kingdom was on the verge of destruction, and it was hard to say whether the other party would be willing to participate in the eighteen-year agreement.

In this case, I naturally have to break the appointment.

After Zhu Cong finished speaking, everyone present was shocked.

One was shocked by the reason, and the other was also shocked by the fact that Bao Xiruo and Yang Kang were actually in the Prince Zhao's Mansion of the Jin Dynasty. What made them even more unbelievable was that Yang Tiexin's ancestor was a famous general who fought against the Jin Dynasty, and his son actually recognized the enemy as his father. Such a fact is hard to accept.

"Is this how he teaches his apprentice?!" Ke Zhenwu was furious. On the one hand, he was upset about breaking the appointment, and on the other hand, he was angry that Yang Tiexin's son recognized a thief as his father. He was also dissatisfied with Qiu Chu's actions.

The other six Jiangnan freaks also looked unhappy.

No one would feel good if they spent eighteen years on a promise and got such a result.

Especially Han Xiaoying, she was only seventeen or eighteen years old back then, at the time of her innocence, but now she is in her thirties and her youth is gone, so she couldn't help but sigh.

"......" Guo Jing felt secretly ashamed. His masters had paid so much for his sake, but the result was like this. He felt sad just thinking about it.

"Jing'er, this isn't your fault, don't worry about it." Han Xiaoying was very attentive and quickly noticed Guo Jing's low mood. She offered some comfort, then thought for a moment before saying, "Now that things have come to this, there's nothing we can do. Why don't we go back and fetch Mrs. Guo?"

Everyone agreed, but Zhu Cong said, "Brother, sister, and Jing'er, the three of you stay here while we go get Mrs. Guo."

Without waiting for anyone to ask, he began to explain, "Brother can't see after all, and the journey is long, so it's not easy to turn back. I'll stay here and take care of you. Jing'er is only seventeen years old. I heard that the school only accepts students up to eighteen, so nineteen or twenty can barely get in. While there's still time, why not let Jing'er go in and learn a little?"

Han Baoju clapped his hands happily and said, "That's great! Second brother is really thoughtful!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The matter was settled.

Chapter 541: The Treatment of the Xixia King! All the countries took action upon hearing the news!

The backyard of the Daqian Palace.

Princess Li Qinglu of Yinchuan, who was granted the title of Ningpin, was nestled in Fang Han's arms at this moment. Her pretty and elegant face was flushed, like a drunken beauty with tears in her eyes.

The faint fragrance is almost imperceptible and very refreshing.

"Your Majesty..." Li Qinglu muttered to herself.

The voice is soft and melodious, crisp and sweet.

Fang Han couldn't help but secretly praise the Princess Yinchuan's character and appearance. She was absolutely a beauty, beyond words!

Although she is slightly inferior to Wu Xingyun, Huang Rong, Wang Yuyan and others, this inferiority is not due to her natural appearance and charm, but simply because she lacks the sublimation brought about by the transformation of life, as well as the temperament and majesty accumulated over the years!

If his realm of cultivation could be improved, he might be able to compete with them.
