After Sun Shangxiang entered the door, his eyes had been paying attention to Lu Ming's body, and he had been wondering if the other party was injured, etc., but after hearing this, his heart suddenly became half cold.
"Captain Lu, what do you mean? The three masters sacrificed themselves to catch monsters. Besides, I'm not qualified to ask for any pension. If you really want to, go and donate it to the Taoist temple."
Sun Shangxiang's face was displeased, and she was very dissatisfied in her heart. If she had known this, she shouldn't have come here to care about the safety of others.
"Isn't Miss Sun doing it for this?"
Lu Ming was quite surprised. He didn't expect that what he thought was different from what others wanted, which was a bit embarrassing.
At this time, Qiu Jiu hurriedly covered the white cloth again, quietly took the iron plate away, opened the door and went out quietly.
Sun Shang was full of fragrance, glanced at the other party, and murmured: "In your eyes, I am such an unreasonable woman?"
"Of course not. I just feel ashamed because the three Taoist priests are gone. I feel sorry for you, so I want to do something to make up for it."
It was the first time that Lu Ming became so submissive in front of a woman, he didn't dare to resist at all.
"You don't need to make up for me. Besides, Captain Lu, your soldiers have also sacrificed a lot. I'm not the kind of person who makes trouble for no reason. I just came here to see what I can do to help."
Seeing that the other party's tone was calm, Sun Shangxiang didn't need to be so angry, so she naturally lowered her voice.
Lu Ming wiped his forehead, feeling a pinch of sweat.
"It's me who judges a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart. If a girl wants to scold, she can swear a few words, and I will never fight back."
"Okay, since you are not injured, it is the best thing for the people of Huzhong County in Modu. Tell me, if there is anything I can help, just ask."
Lu Ming smiled and invited the other party to sit down, and asked the soldiers to bring good Longjing tea, and poured it for the other party himself.
"Miss, let's try the Longjing tea I just bought and see how it tastes."
Sun Shangxiang nodded, took a sip, and immediately felt refreshed, as if all the troubles had been swept away.
"Tea is good tea, Commander Lu, I heard your tone just now, your regiment's military salary hasn't come yet?"
"Oh, thank you Miss Sun for your concern, the military salary will be paid sooner or later."
Lu Ming didn't say anything, but cursed in his heart, the military department has not paid the military salary for two months, and they don't know when they will delay it.
If it is not released again, it is estimated that this group will really not be able to carry it.
"That's good, then tell me, what can I do for you, as long as I can let my brother go, I'm willing to help with anything."
"I also promised you before. Although I didn't catch you this time, it's my fault. I will release the matter of your brother and your patriarch tomorrow. Don't worry, I will release it after going through the relevant procedures. them."

9 Chapter Thirty
Lu Ming felt ashamed, so he naturally wanted to make up for it. It just so happened that the other party mentioned this, so he could give the other party a little bit of compensation, so why not do it.
After Sun Shangxiang left, Lu Ming called the adjutant.
"Let Sun Mingjie and their patriarch be released tomorrow."
Lu Ming said helplessly, logically speaking, the crime of colluding with alien beasts is not a light one, at least he will be in prison for a few years, who made him owe his life to others in the first place?
Qiu Jiu was astonished, "Head, why did you let them go? These two people, especially that Sun Mingjie, colluded with alien beasts and harmed many people."
"Let's let it go first. As for how people settle accounts, that's their business."
"Aren't you afraid that Sun Mingjie will collude with strange beasts after he leaves?"
Lu Ming thought about it, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Let go first, the beast is injured, and it won't harm the people in a short time."
In the afternoon, the adjutant brought the release documents over for Lu Ming to sign, and as soon as he went out, he ran into Yang Ruoshui who was about to enter at the door.
I saw the displeasure on this girl's face, as if everyone owed her money all the time.
"Miss Yang, why are you here?"
"I want you to take care of it." After speaking, Yang Ruoshui kicked open the office door.
With his back to the door, Lu Ming roared furiously when he heard this voice: "Don't die, dare to kick Lao Tzu's door."
Looking back, she was startled, and it turned out that it was Yang Ruoshui who came, and she had already sat on the sofa uninvited, her legs crossed, her face ashen.
"Miss Yang, why is it you?"
"Why, are you afraid of seeing me, or don't want to pay?" Yang Ruoshui said coldly.
Lu Mingqiang came to sit down with a smile on his face, poured tea and said with an apologetic smile, "Of course not, if the girl doesn't come, I'm going to go to your place. Tell me, how much is it?"
Yang Ruoshui said without thinking: "Of course, the more the better, I want this number." Then, he stretched out a hand.
Seeing this, Lu Ming cheerfully asked, "Young lady wants fifty oceans, that's easy to say, I'll get someone to bring it right away."
"wrong!"
"That's five hundred?" Lu Ming scolded in his heart, dammit, five hundred oceans is enough for me to eat for half a month, you girl dare to speak like a lion, believe it or not, I will drive you away now .
Yang Ruoshui looked cold, and seemed dissatisfied with Lu Ming's reply. "wrong!"
Five hundred oceans is already the maximum range that Lu Ming can bear, and if it needs to be increased, then I really don't know what to do.
"Miss Yang, do you want 2000 oceans? Isn't this a little bit too much? The monthly food for my group of [-] people is only [-] oceans. You want [-] yuan. Wouldn't it kill me?"
Lu Ming was very angry. It would be better if the strange beast was caught, but many people died if the strange beast was not caught, and no one would feel better if it was left alone.
"Captain Lu, this is what you said at the beginning. As long as I, Yang Ruoshui, open my mouth, you can give it to me. I know that I failed to catch the beast this time, but is it my fault? I am only responsible for repairing it. The magic weapon, the magic weapon is intact as before, so you have to pay for the goods, don’t you?”
Yang Ruoshui stood up, with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth.
Lu Ming was gnashing his teeth with hatred in his heart. Misfortunes never come singly at the moment. He has no choice but to talk about his military salary, and he is being chased for debts. He is simply not as good as a joint beggar.
Thinking about it, I felt aggrieved. If I hadn't insisted on a philosophy of governing the army that was different from other warlords, I wouldn't have allowed a little girl to speak out here.
"The girl is right. I am grateful to the girl for repairing the magic weapon regardless of the past. It's just that the five thousand oceans you want can't be taken out right now. How about the girl? When the military salary comes down, I will take it out." How about you?"
Yang Ruoshui thought to himself: "I can't get it out now, and when the military pay comes, I can't get it out even more. You think I'm stupid, if I don't get it out, my aunt won't leave."
"Captain Lu, five thousand oceans is nothing to you warlords. You only need to say one word, and the people of Huzhong County, the capital city, will have to pay this tax and that tax, and you can get it without any effort. Isn't it?"
"Damn, you think I'm those warlords, you're so mad at me. I really won't give it up."
Lu Ming was so angry that his face was turning green, but he didn't expect to be blackmailed by a girl.
He complied, and murmured: "Girl, if you are not in your position, you will not seek your own affairs. Many things are not as simple as you think. In this way, I will issue an IOU. If you have an IOU, you will not be afraid of my repudiation." Isn't it?"
Thinking about it, I have never issued any IOUs to anyone in my life, but let this girl be forced to go to Liangshan, so that the whole regiment of soldiers can eat, that's the only way to go.
So, I took out a piece of paper and a pen from the drawer, and wrote the IOU in less than a cup of tea.
Yang Ruoshui didn't want so much in her heart at first, she just wanted to see what the legendary warlord would be like.
It's nothing more than that, and I can't bear it when I think about it. Repairing a magic weapon for someone is only a mere one or two oceans.
"Okay," after receiving the IOU, she pretended to read it, and then said, "With this IOU, I won't be afraid of your repudiation. Captain Lu, don't resent me because of this."
It's a lie not to resent, Lu Ming's heart is bleeding, 5000 yuan is more than half a year's food for a group.
Others are warlords with good reputation, high officials and rich salary, and can make a lot of money, especially those who cooperate with the kingdom of alien beasts, they are simply rich. How can I live so uselessly as the head of the regiment? I also can't figure it out.
After getting the IOU, Yang Ruoshui didn't want to talk nonsense, but there was one more thing that Lu Ming needed to agree to.
"By the way, there is one more thing. Regardless of whether he failed this time or not, Qi Mengzhu can't use the magic weapon of the Changhong Yin-Yang Mirror. And this magic weapon originally belonged to my Yang family, Captain Lu. If you If it can be done, maybe I can consider reducing some remuneration or something."
Lu Ming hesitated for a moment, thought clearly and answered simply: "Miss Yang, I don't know who the magic weapon should belong to, but since Miss Qi is a Taoist nun, she has been fighting demons and defending the Tao, so the magic weapon must be in her hands. It is the best. I just suggest that it is better not to take back the magic weapon. If you insist on this, I am afraid that there will inevitably be disputes."
"This is what you promised me, and you must do it."
"Miss Yang, I don't care about this matter. You can ask her for it yourself. It's good if she gives it to you. If she doesn't, then I can't help it. Tell me. But you'd better not go now Look for her, she was also hurt by the look last night. I asked the doctor to check on her, it's best not to disturb her. "

Chapter 931 Immortal Apprenticeship
Lu Ming's tone became tougher. No matter what, Qi Mengzhu was injured because of catching monsters. If someone does something that is not good for her at this time, then of course they have to help.
Yang Ruoshui frowned. Although she was still puzzled, she still agreed with some of the other party's statement. You can't let people say that you are taking advantage of others.
"Okay, let's wait for her to recover."
A few days later, Qi Mengzhu's health has improved a lot.
Cultivators originally had zhenqi body protection, as long as they rest at home, they can heal quickly, and some medicines prescribed by doctors also speed up the recovery of the body to some extent.
For the past few days lying in bed, she has been thinking about who the mystery behind her is.So when I got better, I couldn't wait to do something.
So, Qi Mengzhu found Lu Ming, and sent some soldiers to look around to see if he could find any clues.
The strange beast was seriously injured, and it was no longer a danger to her, but the person behind it was like a thorn in his back, and he couldn't pull it out.
No one knows the mysterious person behind him better than Qi Mengzhu. Instead of fighting a few times, he can still understand some of the opponent's situation.
Moreover, she always felt a little familiar from the way the opponent made moves after he appeared.
After the soldiers were assembled, Qi Mengzhu told them the basic characteristics of the mysterious man, and cast out as many nets as possible, no matter whether it was the magic city of Huzhong County or the surrounding areas.
The next day, a soldier came back and reported that he had found someone similar to the description in the direction of Dongjianghu, and that some similar murders had occurred there.
After receiving this news, Qi Mengzhu was very happy, so he came to the office to find Lu Ming, hoping that the other party could find a solution with him.
Lu Ming had just come out of his previous failure, and he was currently writing a document in his office that looked like a command asking for military pay, which would then be handed over to the Telegraph Specialist of the Intelligence Department for sending.
Boom boom boom!There was a knock on the door.As soon as Lu Ming heard it, he knew that it was not his soldier. The soldier would call for a report before coming in, but this time he knocked on the door tightly, and his voice was still very soft.
"come in."
Qi Mengzhu pushed the door open and entered with a still pale face. "Captain Lu, I didn't bother you, did I?"
Lu Ming looked up, put down the pen and paper in his hand, got up and invited the other party in, and even poured tea himself, and brought it in front of her.
"Mengzhu, you are still so pale, why did you get out of bed?"
"No, I have already received news that the mysterious person behind the scene appeared in Dongjiang Lake. I must rush over to confirm it myself."
Qi Mengzhu said weakly, as if he had been drained dry.
Lu Ming immediately refused and explained his reasons. "Mengzhu, you can't go now, the mysterious man is so powerful, if you touch him with your current body, there is no way to escape."
"Yes, so I want to invite you to go with me. And I have already figured out one thing. Didn't you ask me to teach you the way of Qi Family? I have thought about it and I am going to think about it now that I have space Teach you, even if I meet a mysterious person, there will be someone to help me."
Lu Ming was overjoyed, this was the look he had been dreaming of recently, and he didn't expect the other party to agree after thinking about it for a few days, obviously a little surprised.
In fact, it stands to reason that such a small fairy is not Lu Ming's opponent at all, so she is only at the fourth rank.
But in terms of immortality, although Ning Wuhua's true biography has been obtained, it is still a bit mixed. You must follow this woman to learn the profound meaning of immortality.
"Really? Mengzhu, are you really willing to teach me?"
Qi Mengzhu nodded, and replied with difficulty: "Yes, and my nephew Xiao Luo has been sent to my house to be taken care of by family members. After all, he is very young, so it is obviously impossible to put him in danger. So , and now I'm called a loner again. It would be great if you could learn."
"Yes, but a child should not be allowed to take risks together. By the way, Miss Yang said that there is something in my body, but she doesn't know what it is because she is not a cultivator. Do you think there will be something in my body? What."
"I have always kept this matter in my heart, but there are too many things to take care of. I heard that you and Yang Ruoshui went to find materials for repairing magical artifacts, and even entered hell through the Yin-Yang Stone, and also collected manzhushahua. Is it real?" Is it?"
Qi Mengzhu nodded slightly. Someone had told her before, so she naturally had some concerns in her heart.
"Yes, that's what Ms. Yang said. I didn't know what happened and passed out. Later, Ms. Yang and my company commander Zhang Feiyu found me, and then I woke up."
"Then Ms. Yang said that there was a cloud of black mist in my body. She used two leaves to dispel it, but there was something in my body that couldn't be expelled."
"Mengzhu, what do you think it could be? Could it be that I was possessed by a lonely ghost?"
As soon as Lu Ming thought of the scene he saw in the hell under the Yin-Yang stone, his memory was as fresh as yesterday.
Qi Mengzhu swiped his fingers between his eyes, and the eyes suddenly shone with golden light.
Under the golden light, she saw a manjusawa plant on Lu Ming's forehead, and also found a strong current in her body, but she didn't know exactly what it was.
"Manzhushahua? Why is it on your body?" Qi Mengzhu was taken aback, his voice trembling.
Lu Ming opened his mouth wide, and couldn't believe his ears. How could the well-behaved manjushahua get into his body.
"Meng Zhu, have you seen it clearly, is it really Manzhu Shahua? Why is it in my body?"
Qi Mengzhu shook his head, "I don't know either. It stands to reason that it is impossible for this manjusawa to be attached to a person. However, it is said that this manjusawa is a symbol of hell, and there is a kind of manjusawa that is an artifact of hell. With it, Then you can shuttle between the world and hell, call the wind and rain and sprinkle beans into soldiers, and you can do anything. I don’t know what is on your body for a while, and I will tell you after I study it carefully.”
Lu Ming was in a daze, completely unable to understand what Qi Mengzhu said.
