Li Sanniang and Li Xiuning died in battle.

This is the latest victory received by the merchants in Anlong's Tianlian Sect.

During the battle between Li Clan and Dou Jiande, the third princess Li Xiuning died at the Weize Pass, and most of the women's army stationed here were wiped out.

A brief piece of news, but a shocking piece of news. After hearing the information coming from Anlong's mouth, King Qin Li Shimin immediately vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted. Because Li Shimin knew that these people in front of him

There is no need to deceive him.

Li Xiuning, dead?

Yue Yuan was equally surprised. He still remembered the third wife of the Li family whom he met in Chunyang. His apprentice Kou Zhong fell in love with her at first sight and secretly fell in love with her when she was receiving her. There is a half chance that Kou Zhong conquered the world because he wanted to win over her.

Li Xiuning admitted that this was true.

After glancing at Li Shimin, who was not sure whether he was really fainted or pretending to be fainted, Yue Yuan withdrew his gaze and focused on An Long, asking: "Who is the one fighting?"

"..."

An Long glanced at Li Shimin and saw that the King of Qin had fallen into the hands of Master Dao. Facing Yue Yuan's gaze, he talked about slightly detailed information and said: "Young Marshal Kou Zhong and Li Xiuning fought with Wei Zeguan, almost the entire army."

They were destroyed, and the general guarding the pass, Li Xiuning, died in battle at the pass!"

King Qin is here and Li Xiuning is dead. These two people will cause heavy damage to the Li clan.

Not sure——

It is really possible for Kou Zhong to conquer the world.

Thoughts were swirling in Anlong's mind, while he spoke calmly about the information he had received.

"Where is Weize Pass?"

Frowning slightly, Yue Yuan asked calmly. Regarding his apprentice's battle, it seemed that Mr. Dao was paying attention to other things.

Upon hearing this, Anlong immediately asked someone to bring a simple map, and then pointed out the location of the pass to Yue Yuan on the map. After one glance, Yue Yuan knew the importance of this pass. It is the gateway to Shanxi, and

Shanxi is the gateway to Guanxi. If people are allowed to enter Shanxi, then the foundation of the Li clan will not be guaranteed, and problems will arise in Taiyuan.

Pointing his finger on the map, Yue Yuan knew that Dou Jiande would probably have the upper hand in this battle. If Kou Zhong wanted to reverse Dou Jiande's defeat, he would have to use extraordinary troops to break it. And with Kou Zhong's temperament, his only option

The choice is to break through the pass and march into Shanxi to threaten Taiyuan in Kansai to relieve Dou Jiande's military crisis and buy more time for the young commander's army.

As Kou Zhong's master, Yue Yuan, who taught Kou Zhong as the Lord of Baiyun City, naturally knew that his apprentice had military talents, and Li Xiuning was a famous general in the Li clan, and she was also a heroine.

It can be said that this is the second time the two have faced each other on the battlefield, the first time was at Pegasus Ranch.

As a result of this battle, the pass was defended, while Li Sanniang and Li Xiuning were defeated. But could Kou Zhong bear such a result?

Sitting down, Yue Yuan also fell into deep thought.

With such a result, the King of Qin Li Shimin could not let go. If he let go, he would be afraid that Li Clan would have a fatal conflict with Taoism, and he learned from the other party that the current leaders of Li Clan were Buddhists. He could not let him go.

Leave, but cannot kill him right now. Otherwise, once Li Clan goes crazy and turns the switch to lure the Turks in, no one will be able to face such a scene.

You must know that the Li clan and the Turks are currently in the honeymoon period.

Get a suitable solution.

While pondering, Yue Yuan began to think quietly.

Just when Yue Yuan was thinking about how to deal with Qin King Li Shimin——

north.

On the way south to Bashu.

Several days have passed since the Battle of Weize Pass. During this time, the results of the Battle of the Pass have gradually spread.

For Dou Jiande, although Kou Zhong, who came to help, did not break through the pass and march into Shanxi to threaten Taiyuan, the death of Princess Li San was the only major victory Dou Jiande achieved in this period of consecutive defeats.

Even if she only killed one of the opponent's generals, and the general's body was snatched back by the remaining women's army in the end, it was enough. It could boost the morale of her soldiers, which was a great opportunity for Dou Jiande.

A very good thing.

But for Kou Zhong, this is no longer the case.

The army is on horseback.

Xu Ziling, who had already changed into his military uniform and his Taoist robe, looked at Kou Zhong who was sitting on a horse and was distracted. He sighed slightly and touched the horse's belly with his feet. He followed him and said softly: "You have been there for several years."

I haven’t eaten anything since! Let’s drink some water first!” After saying that, Xu Ziling stretched out his hand and handed over a gourd.

"Master Ling!"

It took a long time before Kou Zhong seemed to react. He slowly turned his head, revealing a face that was extremely haggard, as well as lips that had withered skin and flesh. He grinned, and suddenly the corners of his mouth reappeared.

Blood stains, muttering: "I killed her!"

"No!"

"That was Li Xiuning's suicide!"

Looking at Kou Zhong's dejected appearance, it was the first time for Xu Ziling to see his brother become like this. Even when they stole buns together when they were young, Kou Zhong was beaten and bruised, and Kou Zhong was still vigorous and vigorous.

It will feel like I have lost my soul now.

Xu Ziling is very clear about Kou Zhong's feelings for Li Xiuning. If he were to put himself in his shoes, he would have seen through the world of mortals and become a Taoist priest. Although he is also a Taoist priest now, Chunyang does not prohibit the Taoist relationship.

companion.

"But she still died because of me, didn't she?"

The corner of his mouth was pulled, and the blood was dripping. Kou Zhong gave Xu Ziling a smile that was uglier than crying. A whimpering voice echoed in Xu Ziling's ears: "Even if she commits suicide, she is not willing to bow to me. She will commit suicide in exchange for my giving up."

Break through the plan to enter Kansai!"

"Hahaha!"

"She is arrogant from the beginning to the end. She is doing it for the family, not for herself..."

"Li Clan!"

"Hahaha! What a Li boss!"

Looking up to the sky and laughing, Kou Zhong, who had never shed tears since he and Xu Ziling were hanging out together, even if he prayed to the Bodhisattva to get a master and live a good life, finally cried at this moment on this day.

.

"Li Xiuning, you win! You win!"

"Woo——"

Kou Zhong grabbed Xu Ziling next to him and pulled Xu Ziling's clean clothes and cried with snot and tears. After a while, the blue and white robe was completely dirty.

"..."

Seeing Kou Zhong crying like a child, Xu Ziling looked at the dirty hem of his clothes and just sighed slightly. Since practicing the Secret of Immortality and Taoist exercises, his temperament has become more and more leisurely. That's okay.

Compared with Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling is truly suitable for Taoism.

In the past, when he encountered difficulties, Kou Zhong always comforted him like an elder brother. At this moment, Xu Ziling comforted Kou Zhong for the first time in an elder brother's tone: "Okay, just cry. Mr. Zhong, you still have me."

!”

"roll!"

He wiped his nose again and listened to Xu Ziling's soft-sounding words. Koo Zhong couldn't help but shudder and replied immediately.

Seeing Kou Zhong's behavior, Xu Ziling knew that Kou Zhong had finally passed this hurdle slowly. In the past few days, Xu Ziling had been following Kou Zhong with fear, fearing that a bad young master Zhong would die for his love.

He didn't eat or drink, and even looked expressionless. He kept mumbling Li Xiuning's name all day long. That scene really frightened Xu Ziling.

Hearing Kou Zhong say a dirty word now made Xu Ziling take a long breath. He knew that Kou Zhong's life was very strong and would not be defeated by such a thing. As for whether Kou Zhong would hate Li

Well, at this moment, Xu Ziling doesn't care so much.

After taking the gourd from Xu Ziling's waist and gulping down some water, Kou Zhong's eyes finally lit up again.

"Master used the falcon to escape the letter this time and let us go south. I think he has a new plan in Chengdu, Bashu!"

"We have to speed up, Master Ling!"

"We can't hold back the master! In Bashu, there are four great holy monks and a lot of forces like Duzunbao. Among them, Master Feixuan and the Buddhist sect are eyeing my master! And according to the news from the master's sect,

, King Qin Li Shimin is also in Bashu!"

"This time, I, Kou Zhong, will meet the second brother she cares about—Qin King Li Shimin!"

After saying that, he kicked the horse's belly with both feet, sped up again, and ran towards the south.

behind.

Xu Ziling looked at Koo Zhong's haggard figure, but he knew that from today on, no! To be exact, from the moment Li Xiuning died in front of him, he would no longer be the same Koo Zhong as before.

Kou Zhong has changed.

This is the intuitive feeling of being a brother.

…

Two days later.

Bashu Chengdu. The entire city has fallen into a state of martial law.
