Immortal, save me!

Le Zhi didn't hear something clearly, and he asked doubtfully: "What did you say?"

Wu Qing knelt down and pulled his collar closer with one hand. Just when Le Zhi thought he was going to be beaten again, he suddenly felt a piece of warmth fall on his lips.

Le Zhi's eyes widened in surprise. The next moment he reacted, he immediately counterattacked and took the initiative. When he was confused and confused, Wu Qing suddenly pushed him away, and saw that his originally blurred eyes were now sober. Look at him.

The look in his eyes was so calm that it made Le Zhi wonder if he was drunk just now.

Wu Qing pulled him up and said, "Your injury is not healed. You need to rest early."

Le Zhi realized it and looked up at the sky. The bright moon hung high in the sky. It turned out that it was already so late.

"I want to wait a little longer. If you are tired, you can rest first."

Wu Qing: "You don't necessarily have to wait for them."

Le Zhi was confused: "Why do you say that?"

Wu Qing: "With their strength, if they just go to have a look, they should come back at this time. Maybe they are in trouble if they don't come back now..."

Le Zhi lowered his eyes and said, "That's all I know. I intuitively feel that the Immortal Mountain has really appeared, so could they have gone there to check?"

Wu Qing didn't answer.

Le Zhi felt sad in his heart. In the past, he had never felt this slightly disappointed when traveling for long periods of time. Now that his father had only been away from Li Country for less than a day, he felt uneasy. It was really strange.

However, their family's blood connection is very close. If something happens to his father, he will feel it. Now it means that although his father and Brother Mo are in trouble, their lives are not in danger.

After thinking about it, Le Zhi put a smile on his face again. He rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll go check on the clan's situation. Qing, you can go and rest first."

As he said that, he turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly something occurred to him and he added: "I forgot that I haven't prepared a room for you yet. If you don't mind, just sleep in my room, the one I showed you before."

Looking at Le Zhi's back, Wu Qing's stretched hands in his sleeves softened. If Le Zhi came up with the idea of ​​going to the sea, he planned to knock him out directly.

It's good that he can figure it out on his own.

Wu Qing turned around and walked towards the backyard. The furnishings in Le Zhi's room were a bit simple, which did not fit with his careless and careless personality.

Wu Qing looked around and found a chair to sit down and practice.

A few days later, the already unstable factors in Qiaozhou completely erupted. Qiaozhou was originally a gathering place for refugees, but the imperial army happened to be beaten to the border of Qiaozhou. They were under the same roof. It is inevitable, so the two sides have constant conflicts, big and small, are incompatible with each other, and are in a state of tense tension.

There are too many refugees, which seriously affects the security of Qiaozhou and the lives of ordinary people. With so many refugees gathered together, if they have any bad thoughts, they are likely to become a major threat to the court.

Therefore, when faced with the refugee group, General Shao's first reaction was to break up their organization and eliminate their influence. However, this was a time of war and it was really not the time for internal fighting. Instead of wasting energy fighting on both sides, it was better to unite with them to deal with them first. The monster of Yu State.

Therefore, under the discussion of all the generals, General Shao sent his deputy generals to recruit people. At the same time, he wrote a letter about the problem of the refugees in Qiaozhou and sent people to rush to Yudu.

The policy of recruitment caused disagreements within Baijiazhai. Some people wanted to accept the recruitment and become regular troops of the imperial court, while others expressed opposition and believed that the imperial recruitment was just a superficial one and its purpose was to eradicate them.

In addition, there are some people who remain neutral. They have more considerations. After all, although Baijiazhai is composed of refugees, the refugees are not all young and middle-aged people. They also include many old and young women and children. Young and strong people accept We are recruiting people to serve as officers and soldiers, but what should we do with these people whose age and physique are not up to standard? They were originally formed as a Baijiazhai because of their displacement. Once they lose this protection, and the court only talks about it but does not do anything to resettle them, won't these people have to wait for death?

Fang Rushan, the head of Baijiazhai, summoned important members of the village to discuss the outcome.

Everyone talked about their thoughts. Fang Rushan did not express an opinion after listening, but turned his attention to Liao Wudao not far away: "Brother Liao, what do you think?"

In Fang Rushan's view, Liao Wu was recommended by Luo Jin, and he must be outstanding, so it would be right to listen to his opinion.

Liao Wu looked a little confused when he heard Fang Rushan mentioning him. He said sheepishly: "I don't have any ideas, you can just make your decision."

He had nowhere to go at first, but after giving away things, he saw that the place was pretty good and stayed here, becoming one of them.

Fang Rushan thought he was embarrassed to speak because there were so many people, so he encouraged him: "Brother Liao, don't be afraid. We are all our own people here. If you have any ideas, just say it."

Under Fang Rushan's encouraging eyes, Liao Wu couldn't resist his good intentions. He thought for a moment and said, "I was recommended by Mr. Luo. I... don't believe what the court said."

Seeing Liao Wu express his opinion, Fang Rushan looked at the people with different expressions around him and expressed his own thoughts.

"In my opinion, you should not forget your roots as a human being. You should have not forgotten our original identities. We are ordinary people who usually hoe and plow the fields and have no great skills. How can Baijiazhai develop as it does now? It’s all thanks to Mr. Luo, without Mr. Luo providing us with treasures and guiding and teaching us martial arts techniques, we would be nothing.”

"Think about it for yourselves, can we live so comfortably without the protection of that plum blossom tree? With the little effort we have learned, if we go to the battlefield, what role can we play, except to give people heads. "

"The young and strong are gone, what are they going to do with the old people, children and women with handicapped legs and feet? Now that the imperial court is in trouble, it cannot save itself. How can it have time to settle down the poor and humble people like us? Not to mention that Qiaozhou is uncertain. It will be lost at any time, at least we will be safe if we stay here."

"So, my opinion is to reject the imperial court's offer of recruitment!"

After listening to Fang Rushan's words, everyone also thought about it, yes, they would die if they joined the army like this. I heard that the imperial army was defeated by the demons of the Yu State and suffered heavy casualties. If they had replaced them, they would have died even more. Not even ashes are left.

If they stay here, protected by the plum tree, they will have no worries about food and clothing, and they will not be troubled by other people or monsters. What's the point of not going?

In the end, the result of the negotiation came out and everyone disagreed with the recruitment. As for the envoy who came to recruit them, they were also kicked out.

Unexpectedly, the deputy general also set up an ambush outside the cottage. He was obviously well prepared. He was driven out at this time. He immediately changed his face and wanted to lead people to break into the cottage. However, due to the effect of the plum blossom tree, he fell into an illusion and lost his way.

Everyone was frightened after seeing this. The court really had no good intentions. Fortunately, they didn't agree to recruit him. Otherwise, would they be serving as cannon fodder and dying?
