Longevity starts with strengthening the internal organs

"No." Wei Hongbin said lightly.

"Then let me ask Lieutenant General Lin, where did you come from when you said that I am afraid of war and death?" Sun Yingkui looked at Lin Shiguo and said in a deep voice.

Sun Yingkui usually had a good temper and rarely argued with others, but today he was aroused by Lin Shiguo's words just now, so he refused to give in.

Lin Shiguo, however, was not afraid at all and sneered: "Who knows if you are colluding with those warriors?"

"You..." Sun Yingkui couldn't help but became furious and was about to retort.

Wei Hongbin suddenly said: "Okay, just stop saying a few words."

Although he was filled with grief and anger, the commanders all spoke, and Sun Yingkui had no choice but to clasp his fists and take a step back.

Then Wei Hongbin continued: "Ying Kui, Shi Guo, you two are my right-hand men. I know that you are both loyal and good generals who defend the country, so why bother arguing over trivial matters."

"The Lord Commander teaches you a lesson."

Lin Shiguo and Sun Yingkui bowed their heads at the same time.

"As for these warriors in the city..." A look of disdain appeared on Wei Hongbin's face.

"It's just some scabies. When the time comes and the heavenly troops are launched, they will fall apart and become nothing to worry about."

The captains and deputy generals present stood up one after another.

"The commander is mighty."

Sun Yingkui lowered his head, but a trace of doubt and uneasiness flashed in his heart.

Are these warriors in the county really as vulnerable as Wei Hongbin said?

But at this moment, even though he was full of doubts, he didn't dare to say another word.

Because he had followed Wei Hongbin for so many years, he had already figured out the commander's temper.

The best thing is not to talk about his great achievements, but also not to hear others disobey him.

Especially at this time, if I dare to raise questions, no matter how many meritorious deeds I usually make, I will never expect a good ending.

Being scolded is a minor matter, but if it is serious, you may not even be able to save your life.

So he shut his mouth obediently and showed a very submissive look.

Wei Hongbin was obviously very satisfied with everyone's attitude, a smile appeared on his face, and then he clapped his hands gently.

"Okay, let's not talk about these things for now. In the past few days, the shops of various wealthy families in the city have brought in a lot of fine wine. Let's have a taste today. We won't go home until we're drunk."

"Thank you, Lord Commander!"

Everyone shouted in unison, and Wei Hongbin couldn't help laughing proudly, feeling extremely happy in his heart.

This is much better than suffering in the barren place of Bolingyu. At least there are fine wines and beautiful people. Although it is not as prosperous as the capital, it is not bad.

In particular, Wei Hongbin felt that he had taken charge of a county when he was only about forty years old. In time, he would definitely be able to dominate the government. By then, the room he was in might surpass the head room and become a true direct descendant of the Wei family.

Thinking of this, Wei Hongbin couldn't help but become more energetic.

And just as Wei Hongbin was having a banquet with the generals in the government office, Yuan Chenfeng was listening to someone reporting to him what happened today in the Chenfeng Martial Arts Hall, about three blocks away from Lion Street.

Although today's Chenfeng Martial Arts School has a completely bad reputation in the martial arts world, many of his former friends have cut ties with Yuan Chenfeng, and even many disciples who still have etiquette, justice and shame in their hearts have abandoned the gym, making him a A real loner.

But in the county, the influence of Chenfeng Martial Arts School has become even greater.

Especially after Wei Hongbin handed over part of the city's defense to Chenfeng Martial Arts School, the name Yuan Chenfeng suddenly became very popular.

Many people who were greedy for power flocked to Chenfeng Martial Arts School, so a large number of such people quickly gathered around Yuan Chenfeng.

These people have no other abilities, but their ability to flatter others is second to none.

Under their deliberate flattery, Yuan Chenfeng has become the number one martial artist in the county.

As the days went by, Yuan Chenfeng couldn't help but become more arrogant, and even the last trace of shame in his heart was completely lost.

In his opinion, he made the right move by falsely opening the city gate and welcoming the cavalry into the city. Otherwise, how could he have his current status?

As for the exclusion from the martial arts world...

What a joke, in a few days even this martial arts world will be gone, and there will be no talk of exclusion.

"You said that Sun Yingkui wooed Zhao Ya and wanted him to see Commander Wei, but he was rejected by the boy named Zhao?" Yuan Chenfeng said.

"That's right, I got this news from within the Cavalry Army. It's unquestionable." The man said with a flattering look on his face.

Yuan Chenfeng's face was as sinking as water.

What he was most worried about happened.

The reason why he risked the disapproval of the world, colluded with Wei Hongbin, and took control of the county was to overthrow the Dingtai Martial Arts Hall.

After all, Yuan Chenfeng knew very well that as long as Lu Dingtai lived, he would never get ahead.

Especially when there is a new Zhao Ya who appears later. This guy is extremely talented and improves very quickly. Even his disciple who has been training hard for many years is no match for him. In time, he will definitely become a serious problem.

After comprehensive consideration, he took this risk.

Now it seems that this step was taken in the right direction, but I never expected that someone would actually try to win over Dingtai Martial Arts School, and even wanted to get Zhao Ya and Commander Wei on the line.

If this thing is done, how should I and Chenfeng Martial Arts Hall deal with it?

Thinking of this, Yuan Chenfeng couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.

fine.

After all, this Zhao Ya is still young and a little impulsive, so he actually refused directly. Otherwise, wouldn't he have worked hard for a long time to make wedding clothes for others?

Then Yuan Chenfeng hated Sun Yingkui again.

Damn it, this guy surnamed Sun is really hateful. I just want to be your captain. If you insist on meddling in other people's business, I will make sure you look good in the future.

After feeling furious in his heart, Yuan Chenfeng nodded, "Well, you did a good job."

"Thank you, Mr. Yuan." The man quickly bowed and thanked him.

Hearing the title Master Yuan, Yuan Chenfeng felt much relieved.

Master Yuan is much nicer than Hall Master Yuan.

"Have you sent someone to find out what's going on at Dingtai Martial Arts School recently?"

"Sir, I have been secretly snooping around. I heard that Lu Dingtai is still unconscious, so should we..." The man made a gesture of cutting his throat.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Chenfeng shook his head when he saw this.

"No, although Lu Dingtai is unconscious, Shang Tiefeng and Jin Zhenming are not vegetarians. The three of them are now an offensive and defensive alliance. If I act rashly, they will definitely join forces to fight against me. The risk is too great."

"Then why don't we just report it to the Commander-in-Chief and send an army to raze these three martial arts schools to the ground?" the man said.

"Haha, what do you know? If Commander Wei wanted to attack them, he would have done it long ago. Why wait until now?"

"Then what are you waiting for, Lord Commander?" the man asked with some confusion.

"Waiting for the opportunity." Yuan Chenfeng said with an inscrutable expression and a calm tone.

This person didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Yuan Chenfeng continued: "But we can't take action before that."

"Master Yuan means..."

"I have a pack of medicine here that I spent a lot of money to get. It has miraculous effects on martial artists of the five realms. Don't you have an insider in the Dingtai Martial Arts Hall? You give this pack of medicine to him, and then let him secretly Pour it into the medicine Lu Dingtai drank. As long as Lu Dingtai drinks it, it is guaranteed that even the gods will not be able to save him."

The man's eyes lit up and he took the medicine bag from Yuan Chenfeng's hand very solemnly.

"The villain understands."

"Go ahead, I will give you another reward when the job is done." Yuan Chenfeng said calmly.

"yes!"

This man is gone.

Yuan Chenfeng sat on the chair and took a comfortable sip of tea. He seemed to have seen the scene of Lu Dingtai's sudden death.

…………

Yonglefang, in a house.

Shi Qingqing peeled the melon seeds carefully, and after collecting enough, he carefully put them into a small bottle.

She has filled more than twenty such small bottles.

Shen Dao sat opposite, drinking tea and smiling.

"Okay, okay, that's it. I can't eat any more." Shen Dao said.

"Put another bottle in, so we can make up to thirty." Shi Qingqing said softly.

Shen Dao had no choice but to nod.

He also knew why Shi Qingqing packed so many bottles of melon seeds, saying that he wanted to take them home to eat, but in fact, it was just to let him stay here for a while.

So even though he was worried about his master, Shen Dao still waited patiently in order to live up to Shi Qingqing's good intentions.

Shi Qingqing's hands are very white and beautiful, especially when peeling melon seeds, her fingers are as nimble as butterflies flying.

So even though he just watched quietly, Shen Dao still didn't feel bored.

Suddenly.

Shi Qingqing, who had lowered his head and said little, said, "In forty-seven days, I can redeem myself."

Shen Dao nodded, "I know."

Shi Qingqing raised her head, looked at Shen with bright eyes and said, "Don't you have anything to say?"

Shen Dao smiled, "What do you want me to say?"

Shi Qingqing stopped talking, lowered her head and continued to peel melon seeds silently, but this time, her hand speed slowed down significantly.

At this moment, Shen Dao stood up and came behind her, and suddenly hugged her gently.

Shi Qingqing froze.

Shen Dao said softly in her ear: "Okay, don't be angry. I was teasing you just now. When you redeem yourself, we will get married."

Shi Qingqing burst into laughter, rolled her eyes and said, "Who is angry?"

As he spoke, tears came down.

Shen Dao gently wiped the tears from her face.

"Don't cry, it won't look good if you cry."

"Yeah!" Shi Qingqing responded in a low voice.

"There has been a lot of unrest in the city recently. You must pay special attention to it. Don't show up if you can. Do you understand?" Shen Dao warned.

Shi Qingqing naturally understood the current situation in the city, so he nodded and said: "I understand."

"Okay, during this period I have to take care of my master in the martial arts gym, so I can't see you often. You just stay at home and wait for me to marry you. Do you understand?"

"Yeah!" Shi Qingqing blushed with embarrassment, but nodded vigorously, for fear that Shen Dao wouldn't see the same thing.

Shen Dao smiled and took her hand, kissed her gently, then packed the bottles filled with melon seeds on the table, turned and left.

Looking at his departing back, Shi Qingqing's eyes were fascinated, and his face was filled with longing for the future.

She was sold into a brothel by her biological parents when she was a child. Although she was not punished much because of her outstanding beauty and talent, the lack of family affection made her heart full of desolation.

This was also the reason why she was close to Aunt Xue and why she was so sad after her death.

Now that the life of wandering is finally coming to an end, it is a great blessing for a brothel girl, even if she is a so-called oiran, to have a man who does not despise her origins and is willing to accept her.

But just when Shi Qingqing was full of yearning for the future, Ning Shan of Yongsheng Buzhuang was like falling into an endless hell, full of despair.

"Miss, the captain will give you one night to think about it. He will bring someone to marry you early tomorrow morning. If you ask me, you should just accept it. After all, this is a matchmaker's marriage, and it's a marriage. He is a cavalry captain with military power, so it is not an insult to you." An old woman persuaded with spittle.

Ning Shan sat numbly on the chair, her eyes blurred, and she didn't know what to say.

All this was like a nightmare to her.

Yesterday was fine, but just because I showed up in Buzhuang, I happened to be seen by a passing cavalry, and the captain of the group stalked me and insisted on marrying me.

Of course I would not agree and flatly refused at that time.

Unexpectedly, just this morning, his father Ning Shanfeng was arrested, and Buzhuang was also closed down.

The other side also said something.

If you don't agree, then don't even think about seeing Ning Shanfeng again.

Now listening to this old woman nagging in her ears to persuade her to submit, she suddenly felt a strong disgust in her heart.

"do not talk!"

"Um?"

Ning Shan stood up and said coldly: "Let this person come over tomorrow, remember to bring my father with him!"

"Okay, let me just say, it would have been better if it had been this way, and you could have met Mr. Ning earlier. I won't disturb you, Miss, for your rest. The wedding team will be here early tomorrow morning." The old woman left happily.

After she left, Ning Shan burst into tears and her whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

She really didn't know what to do.

The opponent is the powerful Dayan Iron Cavalry, but she is just a helpless and weak woman.

Who can come to save yourself?

Suddenly.

There was a knock on the door outside.

Ning Shan thought it was the old woman who had gone and returned, so she couldn't help but scolded her harshly: "I told you to let him come tomorrow, what else do you want to do?"

But no one responded outside the door. Ning Shan walked closer and saw a note on the ground.

Ning Shan hurriedly picked it up, then opened a crack in the door and looked outside, but there was no one outside.

She locked the door again, opened the note and saw that it was her father Ning Shanfeng's handwriting on it.

Although messy, it seems to have been written in a hurry.

But Ning Shan still recognized the words written above.

Go find Zhao Shaoxia.

Ning Shan's eyes suddenly brightened as if she had been struck by lightning.

Obviously, this was a message sent to him secretly by someone on behalf of his father, Ning Shanfeng.

The method given is simple and direct, go to Zhao Ya for help.

In fact, Ning Shan had also thought of this method, but she was not very familiar with Zhao Ya at first. Although she had come into contact with the theft of cloth before, after all, after so long, Zhao Ya's strength and prestige were even worse than before. On the other hand, he has become a top warrior known throughout the city.

Ning Shan felt ashamed and did not have the courage to ask for help.

Secondly, she felt unsure.

You must know that the other party is the powerful Dayan Cavalry. Even if Zhao Ya is willing to help, can he really do it?

But now this note from her father gave Ning Shan confidence. She gritted her teeth secretly, put on a black cloak, and then quietly left home and went to Dingtai Martial Arts School.
