Chapter 0049 Phoenix Chariot
Xiaoling Mausoleum, Li Chengkong sat cross-legged on the couch, slowly opened his eyes and smiled.
A ray of white light came out of his cuffs, drawing a streak in the air, then another streak, and suddenly stopped in front of his chest.
It was actually an exquisite flying knife standing upright in the air, with the tip of the knife slowly rotating downwards. The sunlight shone through the window, and the blade reflected a cold light.
The Taigao Divine Sword is mastered!
He tore up the sword manual in anger, and most of his anger was pretended so as not to let a third person see the sword manual.
It was almost impossible to wield the Taigao Divine Sword, but after a month of hard training, he finally succeeded.
The Taigao Divine Sword requires too much mental strength, and even masters are helpless.
Fortunately, he had the Kunlun Jade Pot Secret, and whenever he was running low on energy, he would replenish it with spiritual fluid in time, and he was able to master the Taigao Divine Sword in one breath.
He had this throwing knife custom-made by a blacksmith.
He referred to the anime he had watched in his previous life and drew an exquisite flying knife pattern and asked the best blacksmith in Xiaochen City to make it. There were nine in total. Because they were mixed with meteorite iron, each handle cost one hundred taels of silver.
Within three meters, the flying knife can change as he wishes. For a longer range, he will need to strengthen his mental strength in the future.
After a month of hard training, his spirit had greatly improved and his thinking speed had reached twenty times that of before.
Therefore, his current state has already reached the state of Nirvana.
Only one step away from becoming a master.
The speed of his progress was truly astonishing, so most of his internal energy was sent into the Tianyin Cave, and only the Huayue Realm was manifested.
Even so, everyone was astonished, and his reputation as a genius spread throughout the Xiaoling Mausoleum, and everyone knew about it.
There was a knock on the door, and Sun Guiwu whispered outside, "Old Li, the chief is calling the meeting."
Li Chengkong responded.
It seems I can’t go to the vegetable garden today.
The other three, including Sun Guiwu, no longer went to the vegetable garden. They stayed in the yard to practice martial arts during the day. However, he still went to the vegetable garden to listen to Wang Ruoyu's teachings.
He had a photographic memory and was able to draw inferences from one instance and apply it to other similar cases, so Wang Ruoyu was very enthusiastic in teaching him.
The two of them often take out a big event and analyze it, what each person was thinking in the event, why they behaved in that way, and how they .
Li Chengkong felt that he benefited a lot.
This is something that could not be learned in the previous life. The previous life was an era of information explosion, when people had broader knowledge but no increased wisdom.
He took back the flying knife, got up and left the room.
Song Minghua and the other three were already waiting in the yard, wearing blue robes and swords at their waists. Sun Guiwu even carried a sword and a knife on his back.
The last time they killed Song Wuji, they found gold, silver and treasures, and they gave out rewards based on their merits. The pockets of the five men were suddenly filled with money.
As martial artists, they were most obsessed with weapons. They bought good swords and knives in Xiaochen City, and their wallets were suddenly empty again.
Good swords are as expensive as sports cars were in the past.
"Let's go." Li Chengkong and them left the yard. Jiang Shuting once again grumbled why they didn't move to the same yard so that everyone could live together.
There are only four rooms in the yard now, Jiang Shuting cannot live in it, and Song Minghua and the others don’t want to share a room with others.
Jiang Shuting wanted to move to a yard with five or even six rooms, but unfortunately Li Chengkong never agreed.
This courtyard is adjacent to Wang Ruoyu's courtyard, and the other one would be far away.
Li Chengkong ignored it with one ear and called Li Xin and the other two who were keeping watch in the woods, and they came to the Shenxiu Lake together.
There were already a few groups of people standing sparsely by the lake, all greeting Li Chengkong.
The Xiaoling Guard was composed of five people in a team, and twenty teams made up a hundred households. Normally, training was carried out in teams.
Li Chengkong's five-man team made the Xiaoling guards unable to raise their heads.
Except for Li Chengkong who has a higher realm, the other four are not as strong as them and they just can't beat them.
This was thanks to Li Chengkong's sharp eyesight, as if he could predict their movements and command the four men to suppress them.
Li Chengkong clasped his fists in return and walked through the crowd to Fu Yuanhu.
Fu Yuanhu smiled and said, "Old Li, I heard the news that the princess is coming!"
Li Chengkong raised his eyebrows: "Which princess?"
"Princess Qingming!" Fu Yuanhu said excitedly, "I have met Princess Qingming once in the capital."
"Old Master, do you know Princess Qingming?"
"Of course...but I recognize the princess, but she doesn't recognize me. She only glanced at me from a distance, a fleeting glimpse..." Fu Yuanhu looked fascinated.
The peerless grace of Princess Qingming flashed before his eyes again, pure as ice and as holy as jade, unparalleled.
"Old Li, what's wrong with you ? You're not happy to see the princess's grace?"
"The princess and we are from two different worlds. What is there to be happy about?" Li Chengkong replied calmly.
This instinctive feeling of anger and resentment is the latent emotion of this body. He inherited its body and naturally inherited its resentment. This vengeance must be avenged.
"You're such a killjoy."
As the two were talking, Qin Tiannan strode up to the group.
The noise gradually died down.
"I guess you have heard the news." Qin Tiannan said with his hands behind his back, "Yes, Princess Qingming is coming to Xiaoling to burn incense."
Everyone was cheered up.
For them, the royal family is a ladder to success, and having the opportunity to show their face in front of the royal family is the shortcut among shortcuts.
If you are noticed by a prince or princess and enter the prince's or princess's palace, you will take a step to the top.
Qin Tiannan snorted, "Put away your little tricks. If anyone makes a mistake, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Everyone looked stern.
Qin Tiannan said: "Fu Yuanhu, Li Chengkong, you two will take your team to Xiaochen City and be responsible for patrolling the surrounding area. Don't let anyone disturb the Phoenix Chariot!"
"Yes." Li Chengkong and Fu Yuanhu clasped their fists solemnly.
"Li Xin, Zheng Ming, you two are responsible for patrolling around the Xiaoling Mausoleum. If you see anyone suspicious, arrest them!"
"Yes!" Li Xin and another young man clasped their fists solemnly.
"The rest of you should follow your usual posts, stay still and keep your eyes open. If anything happens to the princess inside the Xiaoling Mausoleum, everyone will lose their heads !" Qin Tiannan said sternly.
"Yes!" everyone shouted.
Qin Tiannan waved his hand.
The crowd dispersed after much discussion.
Fu Yuanhu said with a smile: "The chief is rewarding us."
Why were they asked to go in two teams to welcome the princess? It was obviously because of the last time they killed Song Wuji.
Not only will they be given more money, but there will also be some hidden benefits, which are rewards for those who work hard.
Others have nothing to say. If you can do it, go for it. If you dare to fight hard, you will also be treated like this.
After the group left the Xiaoling Mausoleum, Fu Yuanhu's team was responsible for the left side of the road, while Li Chengkong and his team were responsible for the right side. They searched the official road within a radius of ten miles, like pulling a net to catch fish.
An hour later, they arrived a mile away from Xiaochen City. Standing on the treetops, they saw more than a hundred cavalrymen accompanying four women in white, marching slowly.
Under the sunshine, more than a hundred cavalrymen, their bodies shining with light, marched in a line.
They and the horses under them were all covered in iron armor, which shone with a cold light and made a rustling sound when they walked.
The four women in white were wearing white satin cloaks and veiled hats, with gauze hanging down to their chests to cover their faces.
Four graceful figures rose and fell with the horses' backs. A gust of wind blew, and the cloaks and white gauze fluttered, revealing the graceful outlines of their faces.
Although they were far away, Li Chengkong's extraordinary eyesight could still clearly see their faces covered by the veil.
Recognized Princess Qingming and her two twin maids.
The other woman had never been seen.
He suppressed his surging emotions, jumped down from the treetop with Fu Yuanhu, greeted the leading centurion Zhao Chengren, handed him his badge, and then turned back and walked in front.
Li Chengkong knew that when the princess traveled, in addition to the princess's own guards, the Ministry of War and the nearby prefectures would also provide guards.
He knew at a glance that there were only nine guards in the princess's mansion, and the rest were guards from the Ministry of War and Xiaochen City.
It seems that Princess Qingming is indeed unpopular.
