"This time, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling have really become famous. I guess the whole Sui Dynasty knows that there are two evil stars in Jianghuai. Now people in the martial arts world call them the Jianghuai Twin Dragons, and this incident is also called the Twin Dragons Overturning the River!"

"Two dragons turning over the river?"

After hearing about the recent glorious deeds of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, these two naughty monkeys, Su Liu couldn't help but sneered:

"These two little bastards are really courageous."

After that, Su Liu looked at Zhai Jiao again and asked with a smile, "Is there any movement from Du Fuwei?"

Zhai Jiao nodded and said with a smile:

"So many of his men have been killed, and his reputation has been trampled underfoot. It's strange that Du Fuwei can tolerate this!"

"It is said that he has sworn to heaven that he would not be a human being if he could not capture and kill the twin dragons with his own hands!"

"This time, the fish finally came out of the water!"

Hearing this, Su Liu smiled slightly, looked at Zhai Jiao with a slightly teasing look, and said with a half-smile:

"Haha, the fish has surfaced, so now it's time for you, the fisherman, to step in!"

Zhai Jiao smiled complacently, put her hands behind her back, and said complacently:

"Hehe, I haven't been idle these three days. Not only did I prepare the Chaos God Powder with Sister Susu and Dan Niang, I also purchased a lot of medicine puppets at the foot of the mountain!"

Medicine puppet?

Su Liu looked a little strange.

Aren’t these the fireworks and firecrackers of ancient times?

Use firecrackers to drive away wild animals.

Haha, this girl has a lot of tricks up her sleeve!

At this moment, Zhai Jiao said confidently:

"This time, I must give that old bastard Du Fuwei a big surprise and let him know how powerful I am!"

Chapter 734 The murderer is the Jianghuai Twin Dragons!

Dusk.

In the Jianghuai camp, soldiers were training their horses, swords were drawn, and the whole camp was filled with a solemn atmosphere.

In the tent at the center, there gathered 120 of the most elite soldiers in the army.

These people are all veterans who have survived hundreds of battles. Each of them is equipped with the most sophisticated armor and weapons. Each of them is capable of fighting ten enemies at the same time. They can be said to be a top-notch powerful army.

One hundred and twenty people gathered together are enough to tear apart a large army of thousands of people!

And they are the Jiazi Battalion, which ranks first in the Jianghuai Army, and are also the personal guards of Du Fuwei, the commander-in-chief of the Jianghuai Army.

At this moment, Du Fuwei was sitting on a tiger-skin chair in the tent with his horse and sword in hand.

But he was wearing a pitch-black iron armor. In the light of the campfire, his slightly gloomy, rough square face looked as hard as iron. In front of him, there were dozens of human heads neatly arranged, and a piece of silk cloth written in blood.

"The murderer is the Jianghuai Twin Dragons!"

Du Fuwei's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, staring intently at the bloodstained writing.

"Okay, good boy!"

In extreme anger, he even crushed a piece of the handle of the tiger-skin chair made of fine iron.

For many years, Du Fuwei and his Jianghuai Army have been entrenched in Jianghuai and have become the biggest local tyrants here, almost like local emperors. Who dares to provoke them?

But now, these two bastards who came out of nowhere actually dared to stroke his tiger's whiskers!

Isn't this just asking for trouble?

In just three days, more than a dozen camps were attacked and hundreds of soldiers were killed.

This is simply a slap in the face of Du Fuwei!

If Du Fuwei didn't grind these two little thieves to dust, he would find it hard to vent the anger in his heart!

When a tiger shows its might, all the beasts are terrified.

However, Du Fuwei, as a local tyrant, is even more terrifying than a tiger.

When he had a sullen face and said nothing, even the elite soldiers of the Jiazi Camp present did not dare to breathe, for fear of angering General Du.

At this moment, a tall figure suddenly stepped into the tent.

"Why are you so angry, brother?"

The visitor was wearing a purple robe, had a thin face, a tall crown on his head, and looked like a wolf.

It was Du Fuwei's sworn brother Fu Gongju.

As Du Fuwei's sworn brother since childhood, Fu Gongju's prestige and power in the Jianghuai Army was second only to Du Fuwei, the generalissimo, and he was considered the second in command of the Jianghuai Army.

Whenever Du Fuwei became furious, only his sworn brother Fu Gongju dared to dissuade him.

Just like at this moment, Fu Gongju strode to Du Fuwei, bowed, and said loudly:

"Brother, why are you so angry? In my opinion, the appearance of these two little thieves in Jianghuai to cause trouble is not necessarily a bad thing. It may be a great opportunity bestowed by God on you, brother!"

If these words were said by someone else, he would have lost his head by now.

But Du Fuwei still values ​​his sworn brother very much.

Fu Gongju has always been wise and resourceful, good at planning, and is more like a military advisor in the Jianghuai Army.

Even Du Fuwei, the boss, would never easily ignore his opinion.

What's more, Du Fuwei knew the character of his sworn brother quite well.

He is not an incompetent fool, but a very smart man.

Now that he dares to say such words to me, there must be a deeper meaning behind it.

You might as well listen to his opinion.

Thinking of this, Du Fuwei raised his eyes, looked at Fu Gongju like a tiger, and said lightly:

"Explain clearly, how did these two little thieves who ruined my reputation become the opportunity God gave me to become Du Fuwei?"

Fu Gongju smiled calmly, stroked his long beard and said:

"Brother, do you know the details of these two little thieves?"

Du Fuwei snorted coldly and said indifferently:

"They are just two petty thieves. Maybe they have some insidious tricks that are not worthy of being shown on the stage, but they are definitely not extraordinary masters."

He had also visited camps that had been attacked by the two dragons. Most of them were affected by environmental factors such as fire and flooding, and were not killed directly by the two dragons.

It is conceivable that these two little thieves may have some skills, but they should not be considered real masters.

After hearing Du Fuwei's words, Fu Gongju shook his head, a mysterious smile appeared on his slightly thin face, and he said softly

"Brother, you are wrong this time!"

"These two little thieves are not nameless or faceless people!"

"Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, don't you think these two names sound familiar?"

Upon hearing this, Du Fuwei frowned, and a hint of doubt appeared in his tiger eyes.

"Hmm? Now that you mention it, it does seem a little familiar..."

After Jing Fu Gongju mentioned this, Du Fuwei seemed to react a little. He seemed to have heard of the names Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling somewhere.

Then, Du Fuwei raised his head, looked at Fu Gongju, and said in a deep voice:

"Tell me clearly, what are the origins of these two little thieves?"

Chapter 735 The legend of Yang Gong’s treasure house!

Fu Gongju stroked his long beard, his face was calm, and he said calmly:

"According to my investigation, the so-called Jianghuai Twin Dragons were originally named Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling."

"These two are from Yangzhou. They were both born into gangster families. They lost their parents and relatives when they were young. The two helpless brothers made a living by stealing."

Hearing this, Du Fuwei could not help but frown, a bit of coldness appeared in his tiger eyes, and he asked doubtfully:

"Oh? According to what you said, these two are just two fatherless and motherless hooligans who make a living by cheating and deceiving others. Then how did they develop such skills?"

Fu Gongju sighed softly, his expression became somewhat complicated, and he said with emotion:

“That’s what’s so strange about it.”

"Who would have thought that these two ordinary little bastards would hit upon great luck and, by chance, accidentally obtain the Secret of Immortality, one of the four great books in the martial arts world!"

Upon hearing the three words "Eternal Life Secret", even though Du Fuwei was on the verge of rage, his eyes still burst into blazing flames, and he couldn't help but exclaimed:

"What!?"

"The Secret of Immortality is in their hands?"

Du Fuwei's eyes lit up, and he quickly looked at Fu Gongju and asked excitedly:

"Brother, are you serious? Are you kidding me?"

Fu Gongju spread his hands, smiled bitterly, and said helplessly:

"Brother, how dare I tease you?"

"You should also know that I have many spies under my command. I just learned this news through the Yuwen family's information channels, and I came to report it to you immediately."

After hearing that this was news from the Yuwen family, Du Fuwei finally believed what Fu Gongju said.

It turns out that the two petty thieves, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, really were carrying the secret of immortality, one of the four great books in the martial arts world!

"Could this be an opportunity God has bestowed upon me, Du Fuwei?"

"I thought these two little thieves were evil ghosts who came to collect debts, but I didn't expect that they were noble people who came to give this general the secret of immortality!"

"Hahaha!"

At this moment, Du Fuwei was so excited that he couldn't help laughing.

However, Fu Gongju suddenly interrupted and said:

"Brother, don't be too happy yet. There is another more important news that I want to report to you right away. Perhaps after hearing this news, you will be even happier than you are now!"

Hearing this, Du Fuwei couldn't help but feel curious and laughed:

"Hahaha, my dear brother, you are wrong. Is there anything in the world that is more precious than the Secret of Immortality? Could it be that these two little thieves have the other three rare books on them?"

Fu Gongju smiled slightly and said leisurely:

"I don't have the other three rare books, but these two little thieves may have something that can help you conquer the world. What do you think, brother?"

Hearing this, even Du Fuwei, who was very shrewd, couldn't help but be moved.

"Brother, you...you are not kidding, are you?"

"This is a matter of life and death. How dare I joke with you, big brother?"

Fu Gongju shook his head, stroked his long beard and said:

"I have been well-read since I was young, and I have read all the dynasties. Those who were able to seize the country and hold the world firmly all relied on their large armies to suppress the entire world."

"Our Jianghuai Army is the most powerful army in the world, but we can only stay in the Jianghuai area and cannot expand to a larger territory. The biggest reason is that we lack money and food, making it difficult to expand to a larger area. This is the biggest difficulty facing us!"

Fu Gongju's words came from the bottom of his heart.

What are we fighting for when we march and fight?

One is the combat effectiveness of the army, and the other is the supply of food and grass.

Where does the army’s combat effectiveness come from?

It's nothing more than sophisticated weapons and armor, siege equipment, and the incentive of military pay.

Ultimately, it’s all about money.

As a local warlord without the support of the aristocratic families, the Jianghuai Army's only way to make money was to endlessly plunder the people.

But how long can this behavior of exhausting all resources last?

Du Fuwei himself knew that this situation was not a long-term solution, but he could not figure out how to get out of the current predicament.

After hearing Fu Gongju's words, Du Fuwei could not help but sigh, and a sense of embarrassment emerged in his tiger eyes. He pounded heavily on the iron chair with his iron fist and sighed:
