From eunuch to emperor

Ji Zhang left Xianhe City, flew over the city wall, walked south for a few miles, made sure Long Chen wasn't following him, then turned and headed east.

After walking for dozens of miles, Ji Zhang came to a river with a boat moored on the bank.

Ji Zhang boarded the boat, and a man in his fifties was sitting inside.

The man had white hair, was wearing a commoner garment, and looked emaciated.

"Master."

The man stood up and saluted.

This person is Lei Song under Ji Zhang.

"How are those people doing?"

Ji Zhang sat down, and Lei Song immediately said, "It's very strange, the people gathered in Jinling City have dispersed, they are going to different places, some are going to Caishi City, some are going to Dongzhou territory, like a goddess scattering flowers."

Ji Zhang frowned and said, "It's so scattered, how do we track it?"

Lei Song was a little embarrassed and said, "There are too many, we don't have enough manpower."

Ji Zhang thought that these people would gather together to target a certain target, but he didn't expect these people to run around.

The masters of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty gathered in Xianhe City and Diaoyu City, and there were no masters in other places.

Guitu spread out his subordinates, attacking and killing people everywhere, this strategy is the best, making Long Chen defenseless.

Ji Zhang said: "It doesn't matter, try to grasp their movements as much as possible. As for the final result, it is not something we consider."

Anyway, Ji Zhang didn't intend to really cooperate, he just needed to show a gesture.

How to deal with it is a headache for Long Chen.

Lei Song took the order and immediately left the boat to contact his subordinates.

Ji Zhang left the boat and disappeared into the night to the north.

...

Xianhe City.

The empress got up slowly, Yingfeng brought clothes and waited for the empress to put them on.

In fact, the empress is not sleepy, sleeping at night is just a habit.

Just after putting on the inner clothes, Long Chen opened the door and came in. Seeing the Empress, Long Chen immediately turned around and went out.

Yingfeng secretly smiled: King Wu is so cowardly now, he ran away when he saw him.

"It's getting more and more useless."

The empress cursed, and Yingfeng immediately dressed the empress.

"Let him in."

The empress sat down, Yingfeng immediately called Long Chen in.

"My minister pays homage to the Holy Majesty."

Long Chen saluted, the empress looked displeased, and said: "Speak."

Long Chen said: "Lu Ji just got the news that the ghost fetus was shot by me and was seriously injured. He killed two of his subordinates."

Many people saw the corpse being carried out from the ghost chamber, and Lu Ji also knew about it.

The empress said in surprise: "That's great, all five of his subordinates are emperors, they are too strong."

In the last battle, the empress was besieged by six people and was beaten in a hurry.

The four people led by Tatsuno are all masters.

Now being eaten by a ghost fetus, the empress is very happy.

However, Long Chen looked serious, and said: "Such a strong subordinate, the ghost fetus eats it as soon as it wants to heal its wounds, which shows a problem."

The empress's joy disappeared, she immediately thought of it, and said: "He has many such subordinates, and he doesn't care at all."

Long Chen nodded slightly, that's the reason.

In other places, Emperor Zun's cultivation base must be a general in charge of one side, how could he be a blood slave and eat whatever he wants.

But ghost tires can be eaten, two at a time, which means that there are still many ghost tires in stock.

"Is there any news about Feng He?"

The Empress knew that Long Chen was looking for the ghostly meat vegetable garden.

Long Chen shook his head, and said: "Not yet, the ghost will definitely choose a very hidden place, it's not that easy."

The empress looked gloomy, but couldn't think of a countermeasure.

Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi can definitely break through Emperor Zun, but that's it, it may be very difficult to break through to the real realm.

The others should look like Emperor Zun.

When they break through, it will be much easier to deal with Nanliang, but they don't know what it will be like to deal with the ghost clan.

Yingfeng walked in, and handed a secret report to Long Chen, saying: "King Wu, He Juntao has news."

He Juntao is Long Chen's subordinate, so Yingfeng sent the secret report to Long Chen instead of directly presenting it to the Empress.

According to the rules, it was the same, He Juntao gave it to Long Chen, and Long Chen gave it to the Empress.

The rule of the bureaucratic system is that one level manages one level, and the superior will not overstep the command.

Long Chen read the secret report, presented it to the Empress, and said: "Jun Tao said that there are people in the direction of Caishi City, and there are people who have crossed the river. There are quite a few of them, more than 20."

"In the morning, Ji Zhang also sent information, which is similar to what Jun Tao said."

The empress read the information and said, "Strange, why are they so scattered?"

Long Chen said: "Attacking a place, we can easily counterattack, I guess the devil intends to disperse the attack, and it will bloom all over the place."

The empress was worried and said: "If this is the case, we will not be able to defend ourselves at all."

He Juntao found more than 20 people, and the actual number must be more.

With so many people attacking at the same time, there is no defense and no defense.

Long Chen was also in trouble, and he didn't think of a good way to deal with it.

With the ghost fetus attacking like this, Long Chen also thought about attacking Nanliang in the same way.

But the ghosts don't care, the people of Nanliang died as soon as they died.

"I'm thinking about how to deal with it."

Long Chen thought about countermeasures.

Dozens of Guitai's subordinates broke into the territory of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, like lone wolves, killing everywhere, which was very troublesome.

These people have to be addressed, but how?

I don't have enough manpower here, so it's unrealistic to hunt down and kill them one by one.

After thinking for a long time, Long Chen still couldn't come up with a perfect countermeasure.

"No way, there are not enough people."

Long Chen shook his head, the Empress frowned and said, "Is that how you look at it?"

Long Chen said: "Of course we can't just watch, so many people have sneaked into the territory of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, if left alone, the casualties will be at least 10,000+."

These people who sneaked into the Eastern Zhou Dynasty had high cultivation bases and fierce methods. The most casualties were not soldiers, but ordinary people.

Long Chen would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen.

"I'll think about what to do again. There will definitely be problems in Quarry City. I plan to go there."

Both He Juntao and Ji Zhang said that someone was moving towards the Quarry City, and something must have happened in the direction of the Quarry City.

Li Xiannan's cultivation is average, and there are no generals guarding the city. If a ghost attack, Li Xiannan will definitely not be able to defend.

The empress nodded slightly and said: "That's fine, you go, I'm guarding here."

After fighting the ghost fetus, the empress saw clearly the reality of the ghost fetus. She couldn't beat the ghost fetus, so it should be fine to stick to it.

Moreover, the ghost fetus was seriously injured by Long Chen just now, so it should take a while to cultivate.

If the ghost fetus really took advantage of the situation to invade and besiege Xianhe City, Long Chen could also come back from Caishi City to rescue.

The distance between Caishi City and Xianhe City is not too far, and they can be rushed back.

"I'm leaving now."

Long Chen got up, and the Empress sent Long Chen out.

Back in the room, Long Chen changed his clothes, explained some things to Wu Jian, and pretended to be an ordinary soldier to go out of the city to Quarry City.

...

Quarry City.

Li Xiannan, the general guarding the city, leaned back on a chair to sleep, and the armor on his body was never removed.

The status of Quarry City is very important. It can threaten the hinterland of Nanliang to the east, attack Linjiang City to the west, and can also be used as a stronghold for crossing the river.

This is the frontier of conflict, and several major battles have been fought here.

It was getting dark outside, Li Xiannan leaned back on the chair and fell into a deep sleep.

The bonfire on the city wall was still burning, and the patrolling soldiers were drowsy.

At dawn is the time when a person sleeps most soundly.

Quiet in Quarry City...

Outside the city, seven people approached slowly, the leader was Tatsuno, and the six behind him were holding various weapons.
