Overlord's Road to Ancient Emperors

Halfway through, Li Xu asked Li Maosheng to get into the carriage to talk. The tall and burly youth of the foreign race was sitting in the carriage, and instantly felt that the carriage was a bit crowded.Li Xu looked up at him, and found that he had grown taller again. According to this growth momentum, it is estimated that he could break through two meters. This is an incredible height in modern times. I really don't know what he eats to grow.

He first asked about Li Maosheng's situation in the military camp, what he had learned, and whether he was used to it, and the other party answered in a polite manner, with his long arms and legs huddled together, looking a little stiff.

"Then what are your plans for the future, do you want to continue to serve in the army, or return to this king's side?"

Li Maosheng scratched his head, "I like life in the army very much. A group of men are very comfortable together. They talk and do things straightforwardly. Although it is good to be around the prince, but the humble official has little mind and is easy to be used by others. It is still not good. You are causing trouble to the prince."

Li Xu agreed. If Li Maosheng stayed with him, he could only be a bodyguard. It would be better to stay in Kou's army. "What kind of weapon are you using?"

"Using a gun in a humble position, I learned from General Kou."

Li Xu didn't expect that he could get Kou Xiao's advice. It seems that he is indeed a good talent, but people who are born with supernatural power should be more suitable to use big hammers as weapons, such as Li Yuanba's double hammers. Make a pair for him to try some other day.

Taking advantage of this topic, he turned to ask: "Where are General Kou and the others? How are you?"

Li Maosheng was really careless, so he replied without thinking: "They had already walked half the distance when the humble workers came back, and they should be arriving in Shanghang soon."

"Oh, that's pretty fast. How is General Kou's mood these past few days? Is there something different?" Li Xu's mood fluctuated violently these days, and he always remembered Kou Xiao's moody and troubled appearance that day.

At first, he thought it was caused by his own words, but after thinking about it, he couldn't. If it was about buying people's hearts, he wanted to rebuild the barracks to buy people's hearts even more, but Kou Xiao was only happy and unprepared. Another question.

When he was in the study, Kou Xiao still looked like a villain, he didn't frown even after being beaten, why did he become depressed soon after!

Why is this man's heart so difficult to guess.

Li Maosheng thought for a while, and said: "In the first two days, I seemed a little unhappy. I always looked for opportunities to compete with the low-level officials. You see, the low-level officials still have injuries on their faces, and the same is true for Deputy General Zhao. Anyone with outstanding skills in the army has nothing to do. After escaping this catastrophe, everyone said that General Kou might have taken the wrong medicine."

Li Xu had a headache and wanted to look steady, but he didn't expect that he was still a child.

"Is General Kou injured? You said the first two days, what happened after that?"

"It got better later, but it's not necessarily good. Maybe it's just because I met the group of Qiang people that I diverted my mind. However, some soldiers of the older generation said that the general may be missing a woman. When he misses someone That's how it is, happy and sad, hey."

"Why are you sighing?" Li Xu looked at the half-grown child in front of him with a smile, feeling that he grew up under his nose, and Wu Jin and Liu Shu, sometimes they really have themselves raising them. The illusion of a child.

Li Maosheng blushed and said: "Humble job is just thinking about my own status. I'm afraid it will be difficult to marry a wife in the future. They all say that the girls in South Vietnam are petite and exquisite, and I'm afraid they can't bear the height of Humble job."

Li Xu's face twitched, and he glanced at Li Maosheng's crotch again, thinking that those soldiers dared to say anything, what couldn't stand it was the height difference, it was obviously a driving problem.

But this is probably not a big problem. At this time, men have three wives and four concubines, and only men die. Thinking about the emperor's three thousand harem, it is really scary. I can't sleep even one in a day, just like being a duck It's like, no, being a duck can still collect money, but being an emperor requires not only physical strength but also money, which is really a big loss.

When the barracks arrived, Li Maosheng directly took people into the dungeon. It was the first time for Li Xu to come here, and he saw many people imprisoned in rows of cage-like cells.

This scene was a bit irritating to the stomach, Li Xu resisted not to vomit, and followed Li Maosheng to a row of cells.

"It's them. These five are the Qiang people. The cargo belongs to them. Their porters are locked in another cell. The military division is checking their identities."

Li Xu glanced at them casually, and did not ask them anything, but asked Li Maosheng to take him to see the goods first.

When he came out of the dungeon, he saw Jiang Qiuming waiting at the door, and Li Xu asked suspiciously: "Why are you working as a military officer at this time, you can stay with General Kou as much as you want, and this king will take care of it."

Jiang Qiuming saluted, and replied calmly: "The general came back from his humble position. I'm afraid you don't have anyone available around you, and the matter involves the general's reputation. He is very concerned."

Li Xu looked at him, and suddenly laughed, but the smile was a bit cold, "General Kou, don't worry about my king."

Jiang Qiuming hastily vetoed, "It's nothing, my lord, you misunderstood, the general's trust in you is as solid as a mountain, and it is indeed to help you that I sent you back. If you despise me, my lord, you are not capable, just don't intervene." .”

Li Xu doesn't care whether he participates in the investigation or not, but because of his own guess, his mood suddenly fluctuates, which is also strange. Why is he always angry because of Kou Xiao's matter recently?This is not like my character.

When he came to the warehouse, Li Xu saw a pile of black stones. He walked over and took a look, but couldn't tell if it was a coal mine. After all, he had never seen a coal mine just dug out.

"General Kou tried throwing stones into the fire, and it did burn, but the flames were not that big, kind of like burning charcoal."

"It's definitely a coal mine." With a smile on his face, Li Xu picked up a piece of coal and put it in his hand to look at it repeatedly, and then asked Li Maosheng to invite those Qiang people for questioning.

"Remember to be polite, take them to take a bath and change clothes, prepare some food, treat them well, and then send them to see the king. By the way, is someone injured? Find a military doctor to change the medicine, add some tranquilization to the medicine s things."

Jiang Qiuming glanced at Li Xu's expression, took a step back, lowered his head and thought: Old fox!This is to plot people, no wonder they can see through their purpose at a glance, it is really shrewd.

Li Xu also went to eat by himself, and waited in the conference hall after drinking tea.

It didn't take long for Li Maosheng to come in with five people from other races, one of whom was carried in by four other people, and those people were chattering too fast, and Li Xu couldn't quite understand it.

The soldiers who sent them over forced them to kneel down, bowed to Li Xu, and then stepped aside, pointing the spear in their hands at a few aliens, if they made any changes, blood would definitely be spattered three feet.

Li Xu glanced at them and found that they were all about thirty or so in age. They were tall but thin, with dark skin, sunken cheeks, high cheekbones, and normal black eyes. They looked a bit like a Tibetan crowd.

Li Xu waved his hands, and said with a pleasant face: "I haven't figured out the whole story yet, so don't kneel for now, give them a seat, and then serve a cup of good tea."

The soldiers immediately withdrew their guns, moved chairs and placed them five meters away from Li Xu, and sat down with the aliens, and then stuffed each with a cup of tea.

The teacup is made of bamboo, which has good heat insulation, and the most important thing is that it is also drop-resistant. It is the most common container in the military camp.

"This is the rock tea produced locally in South Vietnam. You can try it, just take it as an apology for the rudeness before."

He has a kind attitude, gentle words, and a smile on his face. He looks like a good-tempered person, and the few foreigners were instantly appeased. They held the teacups and did not dare to drink, probably because they were afraid of poisoning them.

Li Maosheng sneered at them, and the leader of the other party picked up the teacup and drank it down. After drinking, he licked his lower lip with a surprised expression.

Li Xu asked someone to refill him a cup of tea, and then asked, "I don't know what the strong man is called, where did he come from?"

It was still Li Maosheng who was the interpreter, and the two sides communicated stutteringly. Li Xu knew that the leader of the Qiang people was called Alishan, and he was the leader of a Qiang tribe in Shu County.

While talking, the other party got angry for some reason, and stared at Li Xu aggressively. Li Xu thought it was funny, "Do you know where this is? Who am I?"

Ali Shan leaned weakly on the chair, his arms and legs were wrapped with cloth strips, the cloth strips were bloody, but he didn't make a sound because of the pain.

Li Xu looked at Li Maosheng, who cupped his hands and said, "My lord, he said he didn't know who you are or who we are. They didn't commit any crimes, and they are all well-behaved businessmen. They don't understand why we arrested them."

"Then you tell them the truth and let them give this king an explanation."

Li Maosheng nodded, and then stood in front of Alishan, starting from the meeting halfway, and then talking about their identities, and the general who interrogated them that day was Kou Xiao himself.

Hearing Li Maosheng's words, the other party's shocked expression didn't seem fake, and then he yelled even more angrily, "This is impossible. The person who contacted us at the beginning said that he was the Kou family, representing General Kou in South Vietnam, and They took out General Kou's token."

"What token is it?"

"A wooden plaque engraved with mythical beasts, with the word "Kou" written on it."

"Just with a wooden sign? Have you ever seen General Kou's token? How can you be sure of its authenticity?"

"This... General Kou's military flag we have seen from afar. The word Kou on it is the same as that on the token."

It's too easy to fake this thing, so Li Xu took out his wooden sign and asked Li Maosheng to show it to them, and asked, "Does it look like this?"

The other party nodded after looking carefully, "It's very similar, I'm not sure if it's exactly the same, we just took a look."

Li Xu believes that it is impossible to have too many tokens, and the Kou family stewards will definitely not have them. After all, Kou Xiao’s tokens are not needed for business, so what is the intention of the other party to take out this token? Just to convince the other party of their identity.

And those who need to use this kind of thing to prove their identity are probably counterfeit, but he still doesn't understand why the other party uses Kou Xiao's name to do business?
