Chapter 431 Dog Skin Plaster

Chapter 431 Dog Skin Plaster

The two met an unexpected person on the street.

Red fire.

Zhu Huo was dismissed from his detective position and is now an unemployed vagrant.

Just like Lao Zhao.

As the six eyes met, Zhu Huo felt a little embarrassed. He had once eaten at the same table with the two of them and almost fooled himself into thinking that they were now on an equal footing.

'"Comrade Piggy, have you eaten yet?"

Zhu Huo smiled. It turned out to be you, the heartless Mr. Liu.

It’s that noodle stall again, serving dry noodles with rice wine again.

"If you want, you can come to my department then."

Yang He lowered his head to eat noodles, his speech was a little slurred.

"Dad has already arranged it."

Zhu Huo paused and also lowered his head.

"That's good."

Zhao Yushu felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward and he regretted his own heartlessness.

The meal was finished in silence. Zhu Huo wiped his mouth and looked at Yang He: "My father went out with the leader, why didn't you go?"

Yang He frowned: "The leader didn't call me."

"Why didn't Master Jian Yanhui call you?"

Zhao Yushu suddenly felt that it was a damn wise decision to invite Xiaozhu to have dinner together.

Yan Hui is coming.

This old guy is one of the people Zhao Yushu hates the most, and his level of disgust is tied with that of the underworld.

Wherever he goes, there will be trouble. The eldest senior brother doesn't dare to run around, half because he is stationed in Dongdu, and the other half is so that he can get information about Yan Hui at any time so that he can delay him when necessary.

Since this guy came down the mountain, he directly caused the division of the two capitals, and then he disappeared without a trace.

But now Zhao Yushu had a hunch that this guy seemed to be following him all the time.

It wasn't that kind of perverted stalking, but he didn't know what he had done or what he had arranged, but the ultimate target was himself.

No wonder the leader wanted to go out of the city to meet him instead of letting him in. Everyone knows that he is a mobile disaster-making machine.

Fifteen miles east of the city, there is no Shili Pavilion, only a field of scorched yellow weeds in winter.

The leader in a red robe and a thin old monk sat opposite each other on the ground. Behind the leader were more than ten followers, among whom was Zhu Xian with a frown on his face.

"It's fine that the leader doesn't allow me to enter the city, but he doesn't even want to let me into the Shili Pavilion. This is really a lack of hospitality."

Yan Hui was smiling and saying strange things, but there was no sign of dissatisfaction on his face.

"Master, you are not an ordinary person. You have come from afar. How can I not come to greet you in person? If others come to greet you ten miles away, it would be fine. But for you, fifteen miles is not too little."

There was no tea or chess between the two of them, they just sat there, and the scene was very strange.

"I heard that the sixth teacher of the academy, Zhao Yushu, has arrived in Yuezhou now."

"good."

"I came here for him."

"As soon as the master steps into Yuezhou, the great master will arrive immediately. You and I both know this."

Yan Hui didn't care: "The leader will not be afraid of the master."

"I'm not afraid of anyone, but I don't want Yuezhou to become a battlefield. It's rare to have peace here for a few years."

The world was quiet except for the whistling of the cold wind.

Zhu Xian gripped the reins tightly, his palms sweating. Those who followed the leader were all cultivators, but the strongest mother-in-law and the two protectors did not come, and even Yang He, who was at the seventh level, did not come. The highest level of cultivation among these followers was himself, who was at the sixth level. If a fight really broke out, these dozen people would not be enough to hold off the two inner realms.

Perhaps it was because they were too far away or the wind was too loud, but Zhu Xian couldn't hear the conversation between the two at all. He just instinctively realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

"I went to Jiannan Road a few days ago."

Yan Hui suddenly changed the subject.

The leader did not respond. He never responded before confirming what the other party wanted to express.

"The Emperor of Xijing asked Tubo to send troops to suppress Jiannan Dao from above, so that they would not dare to have any dissenting thoughts."

The leader nodded, indicating that he knew the news.

"Then I went to Tibet again."

"Master, you have great leg strength."

"Hehe, I'm old now, so I walk slower. So I have to gain something from every place I go, otherwise I will not be worthy of these straw sandals on my feet."

Yan Hui really stretched his legs and showed the leader his pair of worn-out straw sandals.

The leader frowned under his mask and said, "Master, what did you gain from going to Tibet?

"I have discussed Buddhism with the Tibetan master. It is a pity that we met too late. The Tibetan king is devoted to Buddhism and is willing to give his full support. I support him."

The leader finally couldn't remain calm anymore.

The main reason why the Red Lotus Cult can still hold on while fighting on two fronts in the southeast and Jingzhou is that Lingnan and Jiannan have had an ambiguous attitude since the beginning of the Red Lotus Uprising. If these two regions are still loyal to Li Tang and launch an all-out attack, the Red Lotus Cult will be attacked from all sides and will find it difficult to hold on.

The current situation is already the best for the Red Lotus Cult.

Yanhui brings the possibility of changing this situation.

Because he not only went to Tubo, but before going to Tubo, he also went to Jiannan.

If Tubo and Jiannan reach an agreement and send elite troops eastward, the situation that Honglian has worked so hard to open up in the south will be destroyed, the southeastern front will be forced to abandon, and all forces will have to be withdrawn.

If Yang He was listening here, he would understand what the leader said yesterday: this world is too small, so small that just a few people can easily destroy everything you have worked so hard for.

"Master, you paid such a huge price just to see Zhao Yushu?"

"I do what I want to do, and I don't care about the price."

"If I let the Master into the city..."

Yan Hui shook his head: "I never force anyone to do anything. If the leader doesn't want me to enter the city, then I won't go in. It will be the same if he comes out."

The leader remained silent.

Yan Hui was forcing him to tie Zhao Yushu up with his own hands.

"If he comes out."

"The leader is my friend, and also a friend of Tubo and Jiannan."

The leader was silent again.

Zhu Xian rarely saw the leader bowing his head in deep thought for so long. He was keenly aware that perhaps another moment had come that would decide the fate of the Red Lotus Sect.

"I need time."

The leader stood up.

"As it should be, I wonder how long it will take, Master?"

"Master, please wait as long as you can."

"it is good."

The leader turned and left, but Yan Hui remained sitting there, with his hands clasped together, silently reciting scriptures, as if this was not the freezing wilderness and the ground beneath him was not dry grass.

More than a dozen horses galloped westward and slowly disappeared into the horizon.

Zhao Yushu sneezed, causing the two men to look at him. As a cultivator of the sixth level, it was impossible for him to catch a cold.

"Someone must have scolded me."

Zhao Yushu's expression was firm.

"Come to think of it, Xiaozhu, isn't there a ceasefire in the southeast now? Why are you going there?"

"This is the Red Lotus military, please don't ask, Mr. Liu, to avoid misunderstanding."

The piglet spoke righteously.

"Come on, it's just that the Eastern and Western Capitals haven't decided the outcome at Tongguan and Hanguguan yet. Once the Eastern Capital finds out that it can't take Chang'an in a short time, and Chang'an can't be attacked, it will definitely turn around and send heavy troops to reinforce the Southeast. Don't forget that the useless emperor of Chang'an also invited the Liao soldiers to go south. The Southeast will not give you that much time."

Yang He and Zhu Huo were both silent. They naturally knew what Zhao Yushu said, but they had no better way.

"I always feel that your leader is planning to do something big, so you two better be careful, eh!"

Just as Zhao Yushu finished speaking, more than ten riders came rushing past. The leader turned around and looked at him with a flickering look in his eyes.
