Looking at Fan Lihua walking in, dressed in white clothes as snow, Li Zhi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and praise: "What a handsome young man with a beautiful and handsome appearance, he is really extraordinary. No wonder he can be regarded by the laity and taken as a disciple."

"Your Majesty!" Cheng Tieniu, Jiang Hu and Xiao Si both knelt down on one knee and saluted.

Fan Lihua just bowed slightly to Li Zhi: "Li Hua has met His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Bold, you are so rude in front of the emperor!" Before Li Zhi could speak, the eunuch beside him shouted softly.

Li Zhi, who waved his hand slightly to retreat from the eunuch, looked at Fan Lihua with a frown: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Are you not my people in the Tang Dynasty?"

"I'm not hiding it to your Majesty, Li Hua is a native of Xiliang!" Fan Lihua said calmly.

People from Xiliang? Cheng Tieniu, Qin Huaiyu, Jiang Hu Xiaosi and others all looked at Fan Lihua in surprise. Obviously, they did not expect that Mr. Li Hua, who came to help them, was a native of Xiliang.

Even Xu Maogong couldn't help but look at Fan Lihua unexpectedly, frowned slightly and said nothing.

"Men Xiliang?" Li Zhi frowned and looked at Fan Lihua, but turned around and shook his head and smiled, "I didn't expect that the two people who saved our generals were actually Xi and the other two. Li Hua, since you are a native of Xiliang, why should you help me with the Tang Dynasty?"

Fan Lihua said: "I am not helping Datang, but justice. Moreover, Jiang Hu and Xiao Si are my junior brothers. I admire the veteran General Qin Qiong very much."

"Is it the one who helps with justice?" Li Zhi, who was stunned for a moment, nodded and smiled, "Okay, that's right! If the people in Xiliang are all people who are very wise and righteous, why should I worry about the rebellion? Li Hua, I pity you as a talent, and I would like to serve my Tang Dynasty?"

Fan Lihua shook her head without hesitation and said, "Forgive Your Majesty! I have not yet left the army. Will you go down the mountain to assist the monarch in the future? You must also wait for the teacher's order. This time, I am just for Junior Brother Jiang Hu and General Qin. Therefore, I cannot serve Your Majesty now."

"Oh?" Li Zhi frowned slightly when he heard this, and looked at Fan Lihua and was silent for a moment.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little nervous. Xu Maogong, who was standing beside him, saw this and hurriedly reminded: "Master Xue's poisonous injuries should not be delayed anymore. Let Li Hua see the injuries for Marshal Xue first!"

"Okay!" Li Zhi, who was slightly silent after hearing this, nodded lightly and said, "General Cheng, take Li Hua to see Marshal Xue first!"

After Cheng Yaojin took Li Hua into the inner room, Xu Maogong pondered for a moment before whispering to Li Zhi: "Your Majesty, the old minister knows that the emperor has the intention to admit Li Hua. However, this matter should not be too hasty."

"Xu Aiqing, we urgently need talents now! Always sitting in a troubled city like this is not a solution." Li Zhi glanced at Xu Maogong helplessly: "This Li Hua is a native of Xiliang. I still trust him and want to recruit him. I asked myself that I have given him enough sincerity and face. But he."

Xu Maogong said without waiting for Li Zhi to finish speaking: "Your Majesty think he is refusing?"

"Isn't it?" Li Zhi asked back, then sighed: "No wonder, he is a native of Xiliang after all. It is indeed a bit embarrassing to let him surrender to me and deal with Xiliang in turn."

Xu Maogong shook his head and stroked his beard and smiled, "Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't agree."

"Oh? Military Secretary Xu. Do you think he is willing to join the Tang Dynasty?" Li Zhi looked at Xu Maogong unexpectedly.

Xu Maogong nodded and said, "Your Majesty, he has not yet left the army. This time he came here at the order of his master. Why did his teacher pay so much attention to our Tang generals? Is it just because Jiang Hu and Xiao Si are his disciples? Why did Jiang Hu Xiao Si join the Tang military camp? It's just because they are Tang people, and there is no instruction from the teacher behind them?"

"Not bad!" Li Zhi nodded with a shiny look when he heard this and said, "Xu Aiqing is worthy of being a military advisor, and he has thought it carefully and meticulously. It seems that Li Hua's teacher is indeed kind to me, the Tang Dynasty."

Then Li Zhi frowned in confusion and said, "But why don't you let Li Hua help the Tang Dynasty directly? We are in a difficult time and urgently need help!"

"Your Majesty, the time is not yet here!" Xu Maogong shook his head and smiled, "Besides, even if Li Hua is there, can he retreat Su Baotong's hundreds of thousands of troops with one person?"

"This" Li Zhi was stunned and then said helplessly: "These pastors! The facts are hard to figure out, and they always reveal mysterious and mysterious."

Xu Maogong Fu Xu chuckled: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious! The second army should be coming soon. At that time, it should not be difficult to unlock the trap of Yangcheng."

"I hope!" Li Zhi nodded slightly, but there was obviously no expectation in his tone. The army of the second route? Could it be that Xue Dingshan is really stronger than his father?

Seeing this, Xu Maogong just shook his head slightly, without saying anything, and his eyes slightly turned toward the inner room.

In the inner room, Fan Lihua, who had taken Xue Rengui's pulse and checked, couldn't help but frowned: "What awesome poisonous!"

"Mr. Li, how about it? Is there a way to detoxify?" Cheng Tieniu asked nervously.

When Fan Lihua heard this, she shook her head helplessly and said, "The cold poison in Marshal Xue was deeply involved in the mechanism. Although the poisoning was not too serious, it is now extremely bad. Such cold poison invaded the body, and all the internal organs were damaged. It is difficult to save him! I am really sorry, and I have no choice!"

"What? Mr. Li has no choice but to do anything?" Cheng Tieniu glared at him and said unwillingly.

Fan Lihua sighed softly: "General Cheng, although I am a cultivator, I am not a god, and I have no means to revive my life."

"Is there no way to do it?" Cheng Tieniu said in pain and despair: "Master Xue, he is the white jade pillar of the court, the purple gold beam of the sea, and the pillar of the army in the west! If he is, it will not only be a disaster for the army in the west, but also a disaster for the court!"

When Fan Lihua heard this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart and pondered slightly: "Although I can't save Marshal Xue, the seal can still hinder the spread of cold poison in his body, and temporarily save his life."

"Really?" Cheng Tieniu's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this and said, "Then please ask Mr. Li Shi Wei!"

Fan Lihua, who nodded slightly, looked at Xue Rengui on the hospital bed with a serious look. She emitted a faint cold air all over her body, and her jade hand formed a seal and scolded: "Fen!"

A white hazy light array appeared and sank into Xue Rengui's body.

"Uh?" Xue Rengui, who frowned slightly and showed a look of pain on his face, soon the pain on his face faded and looked drowsy and peaceful.

He quickly stepped forward and looked at Xue Rengui who looked better as if he was sleeping. Cheng Tieniu, who looked happy, couldn't help but bow to Fan Lihua and thanked him: "Young Master Li. Thank you!"

"Shame!" Fan Lihua shook her head and said, "I'm just doing my best!"

Soon, Fan Lihua followed Cheng Tieniu out of the inner room and came to the living room outside.

Listening to Fan Lihua explaining the situation, Li Zhi couldn't help but frown and said, "Is Xue Aiqing's poisonous injury so serious?"

"Mr. Li, as far as I know, there is a magical object in this world called the Nine Yang Pearl. It can relieve the strange coldness of the world. If there is the Nine Yang Pearl, I wonder if it can resolve the cold poison in Marshal Xue's body?" Xu Maogong, who frowned and pondered, suddenly looked at Fan Lihua and asked.

Fan Lihua was slightly stunned, then nodded in contemplation and said, "It should be possible! However, this Nine Yang Pearl is a treasure of the most yang, which is extremely rare. It is not easy to find it."

"What is the Nine Yang Pearl? Why haven't I heard of it?" Li Zhi frowned and asked in confusion.

Fan Lihua explained: "Your Majesty, this Nine Yang Pearl is a treasure that may be born before the gathering of the most yang energy in the world. Some practitioners regard it as a treasure and can assist in the practice. However, it is of little use to ordinary people."

"Oh!" Li Zhi nodded and responded, and couldn't help but say, "In this way, it is indeed a bit difficult to find Jiuyangzhu to save Xue Aiqing!"

Fan Lihua said, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. When I went down the mountain this time, my master once said that although Marshal Xue had a great disaster and had a long life, his life was not over, and he would have passed this disaster safely."

"Is that?" Li Zhi couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard this: "Since he was a master's advice, it seems that it would not be bad. It's great! I know that Xue Aiqing would not fall so easily."

Cheng Tieniu, Qin Huaiyu and others were also excited and looked at each other with surprise and expectation.

Fan Lihua then bowed respectfully to Li Zhi and said, "Emperor, I have to go back to the mountain to report to the teacher, so I will resign from the emperor."

"You're leaving now?" Li Zhi was stunned, and for a moment, Fan Lihua was a little helpless.

Xu Maogong said with a slight look on his eyes: "Your Majesty! Master Li's order is hard to violate, and there is no way. If you are destined to be, you will naturally see you again."

"Well!" Li Zhi nodded helplessly when he heard this, "Li Hua, since you have the will of a teacher, I will not keep you. However, if you go down the mountain in the future, you can come to serve my Tang Dynasty. I will not treat anyone who has made meritorious contributions to the Tang Dynasty. I am eager to be talented, I hope you don't let me down."

Fan Lihua smiled faintly and said, "The emperor is the emperor and the emperor is the emperor, and he will fight against the unjust officials. Although there are some setbacks, rebellion will ultimately lead to great justice. This battle is just to add more reputation and emperor's dignity to the emperor."

"Haha! Well said! I will accept your auspicious words!" Li Zhi laughed immediately when he heard this.

Soon, Li Zhi, who was in a good mood, left first, and the others also parted.

That night, after a simple farewell dinner, Jiang Hu Xiaosi sent Fan Lihua out of the west gate of Suoyang City. Using Fan Lihua's cultivation method, he avoided the patrol of the Soviet army's cavalry and broke through, which was naturally extremely relaxed.

Moreover, Su Baotong was not present in the Soviet army, and no one could stop Fan Lihua.

Let’s talk about the other side, Qipan Village, early the next morning after Xue Dingshan and Dou Xiantong got married, they ordered the army to set off, and they dared not delay any more.

Because Li Luanhu was seriously injured and brought back to the mountain by his teacher Jin Axe Tianzun, Luo Tong was also injured, so the position of pioneer in the road was granted to Shan Ximu by Xue Dingshan. At the same time, the people and horses in the Qipan Mountain were directly incorporated into the battle sequence of the Tang army, and were still led by Shan Ximu, Dou Yihu and others.

The army marched at full speed, and the next afternoon, he arrived at Jiepaiguan to set up camp.

In the tent of the central army commander, Xue Dingshan rose to the tent and gathered the generals, sat upright on the main seat, looked down at the generals below and said, "We have finally come outside the Jiepai Pass, but if we want to unlock the danger of Yangcheng, we must conquer the Jiepai Pass, Jinxia Pass and Jietian Pass. These three passes are the eastern barriers of Xiliang. If we want to break through, we need to be prepared to pay a certain price."

"Marson! Directly attacking the key points will inevitably lead to losses of soldiers and generals. It will take time. Wang Buchao, the general of the Realm Card Pass, has no brains. It is better to take me, Old Cheng, to take a trip to the Realm Card Pass. With his three-inch tongue, he said that Wang Buchao will surrender and let him surrender. Isn't that better?" Cheng Yaojin smiled confidently.

Shan Ximu was stunned when he heard this. Looking at Cheng Yaojin's confident look, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. A slight shaking of his head was shook with a hint of joking.

"Uncle Cheng. This plan is inappropriate!" Luo Tong frowned and said, "Last time you lied to him, it may be difficult to get him fooled again this time. Maybe he is so angry that he will kill you directly."

Cheng Yaojin was very confident: "Don't worry! I, Cheng, have never experienced any storms? I just Wang Buchao, can't do anything to me."

"Old Cheng Qiansui, this plan is too risky!" Xue Dingshan also frowned and shook his head.

When Cheng Yaojin heard this, he said with some dissatisfaction: "Why? Ding Shan. Do you think I am old, Cheng is useless?"

"Old Cheng Qiansui, Ding Shan didn't have this intention!" Xue Ding Shan hurriedly said: "But, this still needs long-term planning."

Cheng Yaojin said angrily: "I'm just thinking about it for a long time! Now Suoyang City is waiting for the reinforcements to put out the fire! We can't delay here anymore. If Suoyang City is broken and what happened to the emperor, who can bear the responsibility?"

Listening to Cheng Yaojin's words, the generals immediately started to talk softly to each other.

"Okay!" Xue Dingshan frowned and pondered for a while before gritting his teeth and said, "But Mr. Cheng, Qiansui, let Qianzhong accompany you. In case of an accident, it would be better to have a look after it."

When Cheng Yaojin heard this, he nodded happily and said, "Don't worry! Ding Shan. Just wait and take over the Jiepai Pass!"

Seeing Cheng Yaojin leaving happily, Xue Dingshan still looked worried, and Shan Ximu, who was quietly shaking his head, said nothing.

"Ximu, you are familiar with the territory of Xiliang, but what are some more appropriate ideas?" Luo Tong couldn't help but hurriedly said.

Shan Ximu was stunned, then shook his head and smiled lightly, "Old Cheng Qiansui has already gone to Jiepai Pass. Let's talk about it when he has news! If you do anything more now, it will harm Mr Cheng Qiansui."

"Shan Ximu, why didn't you say anything earlier?" Luo Zhang looked at Shan Ximu with dissatisfaction. Luo Zhang had no good feelings for this guy who had hurt him.

Shan Ximu smiled indifferently: "The Marshal didn't ask, why did I say so much?"

"Okay!" Xue Dingshan frowned and shouted softly, and looked at Shan Ximu deeply.

Seeing Xue Dingshan's a little annoyed, everyone suddenly became quiet.

The wait time was not long in the handsome tent, but it was a bit difficult. The news was sent back soon, and the situation was self-evident. Cheng Yaojin this time, he was a meat bun and beat the dog but never returned, so he asked for trouble.

"The hateful Wang Buchao actually captured Grandpa Cheng and Qianzhong. The two armies fought and failed to kill the envoys, and there was no credibility at all," Luo Zhang gritted his teeth and said with hatred.

Luo Tong and Xue Dingshan both looked ugly and didn't say anything. Shan Ximu still looked calm and gentle, as if nothing could make him feel at a loss.

Dou Yihu shook his head and sneered as he listened to Luo Zhang's words: "Tell the enemy that he is credible? The soldiers are treacherous and use any means to seek victory or defeat."

"Stop talking!" Xue Dingshan shouted in a deep voice and stood up and said in a deep voice: "All the generals obey the orders and follow my commander's soldiers to suppress the Realm Card Pass. I will meet Wang Buchao for a while."
