Laughing at Chang'an

The small silver-gray off-road vehicle drove smoothly on the spacious street. Even though his heart was extremely anxious, Li Xifeng still drove the car very steadily.

Li Shen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, opened the car window, lowered his head and lit a cigarette.

"Don't put the cigarette ash in the car." Li Xifeng glanced at him and muttered, "Annoyed? Beep, I'm more upset than you... What do you mean by this? Is it fun? The commander-in-chief is not here , That bad guy from Lin Guo told me only in the morning, motherfucker, didn’t you say you’re not going crazy? Talking like farting..."

Li Shen bit Yan Le and said with a smile: "I'm spitting blood, when am I going to go crazy?"

"Aren't you crazy!?" Li Xifeng stared like a copper bell, turned his head and yelled at Li Shen, "Revocation of license! Quit the Geng Army! What the hell are you trying to do!?"

"Don't get excited."

Li Shen took a puff of smoke slowly, and said lightly, "Well, I have my own difficulties, please listen to my explanation... Hey, what are you doing?"

He breathed a sigh of relief, and stared at Li Xifeng, who had copied the exquisite short gun with piercing eyes, and the latter held the steering wheel with one hand and the gun with the other, and put it on... his head.

"I'll sue you, Li Shen." Li Xifeng pointed his gun at his temple, and said forcefully, "If you don't obediently go to the guild with me today to suspend the cancellation, I will die for you!"

This way of threatening people is really...creative.

Li Shen blinked.

"Crying, making trouble, and hanging himself three times." He said coldly, his eyes were very contemptuous, "The most annoying thing is to talk about death, I will count to three, one, two..."

"Ancestor!" Li Xifeng wailed, put down his gun, and begged pitifully, "Can we still be friends? I'm going to commit suicide, will you die if you cooperate?"

Li Shen nodded, and asked back, "I've been sitting here, isn't it enough?"

Seeing his easy-going attitude, Li Xifeng's heart sank. If it was just a momentary impulse, there is still hope, but Li Shen's appearance clearly made up his mind, and even ten cows would not be able to pull him back. , No, a thousand heads and ten thousand heads are not enough.

"You said you have difficulties, what's the matter?" Sappor's shamelessness is useless, Li Xifeng decisively changed his style of painting, and said seriously, "I don't think it's an ordinary difficulty, otherwise we wouldn't have reached this point. Come out and listen, maybe I can give you some advice."

A cigarette had already burned to the end, Li Shen threw the cigarette butt out of the car window, squinted as it flew away, and said without looking back, "It's quite troublesome."

He paused, then continued——

"Yang Hsing's Yang's Climbing Immortal Method is in my hands."

………………

In just one day and one night, the war between the four major mercenary regiments and the war eagle has come to an end.

Leaving aside the disparity in combat power between the two sides, Zhanying's highly centralized power system also created favorable conditions for Geng Yan and others to make key breakthroughs. When there was no possibility of victory, they lacked loyalty due to the corrupt system. The middle and lower level mercenaries in the heart of the war eagle even voluntarily surrendered one after another. The situation of the battle can be described as overwhelming.

As the saying goes, if you don't fight, you don't know. Once you hit it, you will be shocked. The rottenness of the war eagle surprised its enemies. It is like a castle that has been ravaged by decay. It looks bright and beautiful, but the inside is extremely miserable.Wang Ziyun and others even reflected on themselves because of this. Although the situation is not as serious as Zhanying, they actually have problems like Zhanying more or less internally.

Although the accumulation of time has brought about a solid foundation and fame, it also inevitably leads to corruption. I am afraid that only Geng Yan is the least worried about this point.

The core strategy of this battle from the very beginning was to fight quickly. Geng Yan and Huang Sha joined forces to wipe out the high-level main force of the war eagle almost overnight. The war eagle, which lost its high-end combat power, had no power to fight back. Finishing stage.After an agreement, Huang Sha stayed as insurance, while Geng Yan returned to Chang'an first to deal with the trouble caused by his family's worry-free cargo.

On the airship returning to Chang'an, Geng Yan received a communication from Li Xifeng.

"I really can't help it." Li Xifeng's tone sounded quite calm, with a sense of detachment that accepted the reality and no longer struggled. "Tell him yourself... I think he is really crazy."

"Well, I'll be there soon."

"Master."

"what happened?"

Li Xifeng on the other end of the communication took a deep breath, the sound of breathing could be faintly heard even here, and then he said——

"Yang Huxing's Yang's Climbing Immortal Method is in Li Shen's hands, and he intends to announce it."

Geng Yan held the communicator and was silent for a while before replying.

"understood."

………………

The tasks of the mercenary guild are mainly divided into six categories: war, security, business, daily, guild, technology.The last category is specially created for alternative mercenary regiments such as Donggong that focus on scientific research and manufacturing. Of course, it is not limited to technology. Teaching combat or providing other technical support can also be classified into this category.

Among these six categories, the one with the largest number of tasks is naturally the daily task.Running errands, delivering letters, searching for people, finding things...any chores that can't be categorized are put here.This category can be said to be specially created for low-level mercenaries, and the requirements for combat power are not high. Of course, the rewards are not high, but at least they can make ends meet.However, in Chang'an City, the headquarters of the mercenary guild, the proportion of daily tasks is much smaller than that of other major categories. Here, even low-level mercenaries don't bother to do daily tasks, but rather do Guild missions with lower rewards accumulate contribution points and exchange for equipment.

These are the so-called Chang'an mercenaries. They left their hometown and came to this city in order to stand out and fight for their future. No matter how aggressive or desperate they are, they are not at the same level as the mercenaries outside.Do daily tasks and wait to die?Do not make jokes.

However, there are also a small group of people who are not young, not capable, and are reluctant to leave. They still daydream in their hearts and hope that one day they will be favored by the nobles. When the time comes, they can only survive by doing daily tasks—— For these people, there is also a term called Baigou.

This afternoon, when an old loser was looking through the list of daily tasks, he found a new task.He casually opened the task content, only read one line, then unconsciously raised his hand and rubbed his eyes to make sure he read it correctly.

[Task Name: Funeral]

[Task content: At twelve o'clock in the afternoon on March 25th in the Tang Dynasty calendar, funeral for Yang Martian]

[Access requirements: Tianmen third grade and below]

[Task Reward: Yang's Climbing Immortal Method]

[Note: For those who accept the task, please wait in front of the Mars Mission Hall at No. 77, Danfeng Road, South City, Chang'an]

[Task issuer: Li Shen Contact information: None]

... Yang's Ascension to Immortal Method?

His heart, which he thought had died long ago, was beating wildly. Standing in front of the task viewer, the defeated dog felt dizzy and faint.After a long time, he took slow steps, walked to the task acceptance counter, handed over his mercenary license, and reported the task number that had been deeply rooted in his heart.

"I want to pick this up, please, thank you."

He is not the first, nor the last.

A light blue light curtain enveloped the small courtyard, Feng He put one leg up, sat on the spar box with his gun in his arms, closed his eyes and meditated.He had been sitting like this all day, motionless, like a statue.Wang Zhen, whose injuries had worsened, was moved back to the bedroom. Rong Hu was the only one who could move around in the yard, so he had to use his remaining left hand to cook for everyone.

Fortunately, there was still rice and a basket of steamed buns left in the kitchen.

Feng He, who was sitting on the box, suddenly opened his eyes.

Someone appeared outside the light curtain, with an unfamiliar face, without any team emblem on his body, and a suit of battle armor and protective gear made up of miscellaneous things, looking very poor.He curiously looked at the situation in the courtyard from the open door, seeing Feng He sitting in the middle of the courtyard, he was not surprised but delighted, then... took out a folding stool, and just sat down.

Feng He tilted his head inexplicably.

Then soon, there was a second, a third... more and more people came outside the courtyard, all of them were unfamiliar faces, and then more and more people came to block the door. Without a stool, I sat on the ground, blocking the narrow road...

Feng He, who had been watched countless times: "...what the hell?"

Residents along the entire Danfeng Road were alarmed. To be precise, their doorways were blocked, making it difficult to get in and out.And the line of sitting in rows is still expanding, from the end of the street to the intersection, and then folded to both sides...

At this moment, the instigator of the incident is eating the golden bag.

A time-honored brand in Chang'an, a century-old golden bag... With a bag in his mouth, Li Shen stood at the gate of the Huiguang Guild Hall, nodded to the doorman familiarly, and stepped inside.

Then he was stopped.

"I'm looking for President Li." Li Shen said, Li Tieyi is the current president of the mercenary guild, so he is right to call him that, "Can you please inform me?"

"The head of the group has ordered that we won't see any guests for the time being. Please go back." The guard replied.

"I really need him." Li Shen took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun, and as soon as he spoke, golden fried skin crumbs fell from between his teeth and fell onto the lapel of his clothes. The adjutant standing behind him saw it and hurriedly lightened his hands Foot to help him shoot off.

The guard remained silent, and the body standing in front of Li Shen didn't show any intention of retreating.

"Come on."

Li Shen shrugged, turned and walked down the steps, then glanced at the adjutant.The latter immediately understood what he meant, trotted back to the car that was driving, took out a large metal box that was two meters long and two feet wide, and moved it to Li Shen with difficulty.

There is a knife in the box.

The name of the knife is Tu Niu. It is [-] meters long and [-] centimeters wide. It is an out-and-out 'giant blade'.

Li Shen raised the knife, knocked on the lid of the box with his foot, dropped his right hand to the side, and nailed the big knife obliquely into the ground like cutting tofu.

He bent over and supported his knees, and sat down on the box.

"Li Tieyi won't come out."

he said to the guard.

"You don't need to come out."
