Chapter 1003 Aftermath

PS: Thanks to the book friend Lao Na for the reward of 10,000 starting coins at the age of eighteen this year

The Guanzhong Xingtang lost a lot in the battle with the Yulin Army. Judging from his expression, Chu Wuji also suffered some injuries.

Chu Xiu handed over a bottle of elixir and said, "The injury is serious? Where's Old Wei?"

Chu Wuji took the elixir, shook his head and said, "It's not too heavy, Mr. Wei should go to Wei Jun at this time, which is also the main location of Dong Qi's attack.

However, three of the five armies of the Eastern Qi Zhenguo, plus the masters of the royal family's worship hall, have already prepared to be there, so it should be much easier. "

After finishing speaking, Chu Wuji sighed and said, "I'm afraid your current strength is infinitely close to that of heaven and earth, isn't it? Real fire refines the gods and real fire refines the body. The two are combined into one. It's really terrifying. I'm thinking about giving it a try." went."

Of course, Chu Wuji was just talking about it, he would only try this kind of thing if he lost his mind and went crazy.

True fire training without great perseverance is not allowed to practice, Chu Xiu was able to practice successfully, in fact, a large part of it was due to luck.

If other people are like him, they still survive after being blasted to scum, and it is possible to practice real fire training after reshaping their bodies.

"The realm of heaven and earth is not so easy to deal with. When we reach the realm of you and me, the difference between clouds and mud is not so easy to surpass."

Chu Wuji said: "But in my opinion, you have at least crossed half the sky."

After exchanging pleasantries, Chu Wuji followed Chu Xiu directly into Guanzhong City.

Xiao Yi and the others were counting the losses of the Guanzhong Criminal Hall, and when they saw Chu Xiu coming, they all saluted respectfully.

Chu Yuansheng also saw Chu Xiu, and his expression was still a little awkward, because he didn't know what he should call Chu Xiu.

Although he already knew by now that Chu Xiu was using him back then, Chu Yuansheng never really hated Chu Xiu.

After all, his interests have not been damaged, and even his father's position in the past has returned to him, and the power of the Guanzhong Criminal Hall is even greater than before.

But at the beginning, he was Chu Xiu's eldest brother, but now Chu Xiu is no longer the leader of the Jianghu in the Guanzhong torture hall in the past, but a giant of magic, a hero who controls the entire Beiyan Wulin.

It can even be said that his father was not as strong as Chu Xiu is now when he was at his peak.

When Chu Kuangge went all out to fight Tianmen Shenjun Luo back then, he only used his own life to fight and seriously injured Luo Shenjun.

But now Chu Xiu can kill the Heavenly Gate God General, this is the gap.

Before Chu Yuansheng could speak, Chu Xiu walked over and cupped his hands and said, "Brother, are you safe? This time, I was late. If I had come earlier, maybe the cities of Guanzhong Xingtang would not have to be thrown away." gone."

Seeing that Chu Xiu's attitude towards him was almost the same as before, Chu Yuansheng also heaved a sigh of relief, and was even a little moved.

"Brother Chu, don't blame yourself, you came just in time, in fact, I didn't lose anything at Guanzhong Torture Hall.

We knew before that, with the power of the Guanzhong Criminal Hall, to disperse the army against the Eastern Qi, basically it is to block the car with the arms of the mantis.

So when we were in the Eastern Qi Dynasty, we had already withdrawn all our people. The cities occupied by the Eastern Qi Dynasty were just empty cities.

In addition, Dong Qi also wanted to completely occupy Guanzhong, so there was no embarrassment for some martial arts forces or other people in the city. "

Chu Xiu nodded and said: "That's good, after the casualties are counted, let's discuss the matter together.

The Imperial Forest Army has retreated, but it does not mean that we are safe. Dong Qi does not have only one Habayashi Army. "

Half an hour later, all the senior officials of Guanzhong Xingtang and Chu Wuji came to the meeting hall.

Chu Yuansheng wanted Chu Xiu to take the main seat, but Chu Xiu refused.

With his current status, he no longer needed to gain status and respect by sitting on the throne.

In fact, with the strength of the current Chu Xiu's control, the Guanzhong Criminal Hall is dispensable to him.

Chu Yuansheng never betrayed him in the past, so naturally he would not betray Chu Yuansheng, so as long as he is alive, the Guanzhong Xingtang will always have the surname Chu.

Secretly, Chu Xiu whose surname is him, and Chu Yuansheng who is surnamed Chu publicly.

Besides, Chu Xiu also admires Chu Kuangge Chu Juxia, but admiration is nothing but admiration, Chu Xiu will be Chu Kuangge for the rest of his life.

"How about the casualties at the Guanzhong Criminal Hall?" Chu Xiu asked.

Xiao Yi said in a deep voice: "More than 3,000 people died and 10,000 people were injured. I don't have the advantage in this kind of army battle."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yi looked up at Chu Xiu carefully and said, "My lord, can Beiyan send reinforcements?"

Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "It's very difficult. The strength of Beiyan is here. The five armies of Zhenguo have already been dispatched. If they are transferred again, they can only be transferred to the Imperial Forest Army that guards the palace around Yanjing City."

The complexions of the warriors present in the Guanzhong Criminal Hall all changed.

Without reinforcements, what are they going to do to guard the Guanzhong torture hall?

Don't look at the strength of Guanzhong Xingtang before, but this is a national war! The powerful army built with all the power of a country is simply not something that can be stopped by the Guanzhong torture hall.

However, Chu Xiu suddenly said at this time: "Beiyan can't dispatch reinforcements here, but we can find a way on Dongqi's side to let Dongqi change the target of attack.

The Guanzhong Criminal Hall is not the main place. There is Jiangshan Pavilion in Wei County, and the junction of Beiyan and Dongqi is also a place of contention between the two sides. The Guanzhong Criminal Hall is actually dispensable for Dongqi . "

Xiao Yi smiled bitterly: "But the question now is, how can we make Dong Qi change his mind?"

Chu Xiu thought for a while, knocked on the table and said, "The Guanzhong Criminal Hall has been the center of the Three Kingdoms trade for so many years. You torturers must have often done things like smuggling, right?"

The expressions of Xiao Yi and the others changed slightly. Chu Xiu waved his hand casually and said, "Don't be nervous. I used to do this kind of thing often when I was the judge in the Guanzhong Criminal Hall. Who can completely refrain from such a huge profit?

You have been in the Guanzhong torture hall longer than I have. For so many years, there have been no big figures in the Eastern Qi Dynasty, some nobles from the royal family, and the like to intervene in these smuggling businesses? Can you reach them? "

Xiao Yi nodded when he heard the words: "It is possible to contact, but my lord, it is the time of the national war between Dongqi and Beiyan. Even if they are contacted, they dare not intervene in such matters."

Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't worry, you can just contact them, as long as the interests are sufficient, they can't do such things as betraying the country.

You just need to contact them as I said, and I will not show up. After all, my identity is sensitive, but I will tell you what to say in secret. "

Hearing what Chu Xiu said, although Xiao Yi was still puzzled, he could only nod in agreement.

The connections Xiao Yi and the others have accumulated over the years in the Guanzhong Criminal Hall are really not simple.

People from the Eastern Qi Dynasty want to smuggle things to Northern Yanxi Chu. The ordinary small caravans are sneaky, and the large caravans have opened up the relationship with the inspectors, and some extremely sensitive things are to get through them. Only criminals can do it.

So Xiao Yi and the others really knew a lot about some powerful people in the Eastern Qi court.

It's just that at this critical moment, these people don't want to see Xiao Yi, but Chu Xiu's approach is very rude, directly threatening them. If they don't come, he will hand over the evidence of their smuggling over the years to the Eastern Qi court. It was the contraband they smuggled to Beiyan.

So although these people were angry, they still came obediently.

Of course, they were not idiots to enter the border of Guanzhong Criminal Hall, but found a place where Dongqi and Guanzhong Criminal Hall bordered to meet Xiao Yi.

In an inn in a small town, Xiao Yi had already booked the entire inn. Opposite him sat several people in fine clothes, young and old, but all of them had angry expressions on their faces.

One of them said coldly: "Lord Xiao, you did not behave properly in this matter.

We have cooperated so many times before, so there is no righteousness in business.

You followed Chu Xiu and Bei Yan, but now you are overwhelmed by the army, implicating us, what's the point? "

Xiao Yi knew the identities of these people in front of him, they were all nobles of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, even the royal family.

For example, the person speaking in front of him is Lu Changlong, the Huai King of Dongqi, who belongs to the collateral royal family. Although he is crowned king, he has no real power, so he spends most of his time making money and having fun.

Xiao Yi waved his hand and said: "Everyone, please calm down, you don't want to see me, and I really have no choice, so I came up with such a trick.

Right now, you all know the predicament I am facing in the Guanzhong Criminal Hall. I am here this time to ask for your help. "

Lu Changlong and the others quickly shook their heads and said, "Come on, Mr. Xiao, it's not like you don't know the details of us. Are we able to talk about such a big matter?"

Xiao Yi laughed and said: "You are all prominent figures in the Eastern Qi court, why can't you speak?

Don't worry, since I am asking for help, then I, Guanzhong Xingtang, are naturally sincere.

After the Guanzhong torture hall returns to calm, I will not take a penny of what you want to smuggle in the future.

And as long as you agree to help me close the torture hall once, everything here will belong to you. "

Saying that, Xiao Yi directly opened a space secret box, which was full of gold, silver and jewels piled up like a mountain.

Although for warriors, these things are not very useful, but they are also real money.

Chu Xiu wanted to bribe them with these things, which still made Xiao Yi feel very distressed.

Seeing these things, Lu Changlong and others were really moved.

But they still shook their heads and said: "Although money is a good thing, you Guanzhong Criminal Hall is standing on Beiyan's side right now. Helping you is tantamount to betraying the country. It's not easy to earn money from traitors."

At this time, Chu Xiu's voice came from Xiao Yi's ear.

He froze for a moment, then asked with a smile: "I ask you a question, do you think Beiyan can annex Dongqi?"

All the people present burst out laughing, and Lu Changlong said disdainfully: "I, Da Qi, sits in the rich and prosperous Central Plains, where heroes and heroes come forth in large numbers. Don't even try to swallow me up."

Xiao Yi smiled and said: "Since this is the case, why are you still worried about betraying the country? Don't say that this time, our Guanzhong Criminal Hall is just for self-protection. Isn't the problem?

Since this is the case, what's the big deal if you sell it once in a while? "
