Chapter 42: The General's Mansion

Shopkeeper Zhao said: "This deputy general is called Wang Rengui. He is twenty-seven years old this year. He is a late third-rate cultivator. He is a disciple of the Wang family in the capital city of Daqian."

"Late third-rate? Can a warrior in the late third-rate become the deputy general guarding the important town in the northwest of Daqian?" Li Yuxi asked curiously.

Shopkeeper Zhao explained: "Miss Yuxi doesn't know something. If she is an ordinary third-rate late-stage warrior, she will definitely not be able to do it, but the uncle of Vice-General Wang is the Minister of War of the imperial court.

The Wang family specially arranged for him to come to Wuling Pass for gold plating. But after Vice General Wang arrived at Wuling Pass, he didn't care about anything and only drank and had fun every day."

"Ha! It turns out he is a naughty boy. If the imperial court arranges such a person here, isn't it afraid that Wuling Pass will be lost?" Li Ge said with a smile.

"Master Li is overly worried. These court ministers are not that stupid. The reason why they agreed to place Wang Rengui at Wuling Pass is because Qin Fei is guarding Wuling Pass."

"Who is this Qin Fei?" Luo Chen asked.

Shopkeeper Zhao replied: "He is the chief general of Wuling Pass, General Zhenbei. He is forty-two years old and a second-rate early warrior. Because he has a beast-level gray wolf mount, people here call him General Wolf.

This man has been guarding the border since he was a teenager. He started as an ordinary soldier and fought hard all the way. He has experienced countless battles, big and small. He is brave and good at fighting with few defeats. He is famous in this northwest land.

It is precisely because of him guarding Wuling Pass these years that this northwest land has been stable for many years."

"So powerful?"

Li Ge smacked his lips and said, "No wonder a noble and obsessive son dares to come to such a dangerous place to serve as a lieutenant. It turns out there are experts here to control it."

"Okay, I've learned everything I need to know. Let's stop here today! We've all worked hard after traveling such a long way. Let's take a day off today and we'll go meet the lieutenant again tomorrow."

After listening to Luo Chen's words, several people were about to leave. At this time, Li Hu ran in:

"Master, there is an officer coming from outside. He claims to be a general from General Wulingguan's Mansion and wants to see you."

"The general in the general's palace? We have just arrived here, what can he do to us?" Li Ge looked at Li Hu doubtfully.

"What else can happen? We made such a big noise when we entered the customs, and there were such a large group of martial artists. They should have come to know our details."

As Luo Chen said this, he ordered Li Hu: "Go and invite him in!"

After a while, Li Hu walked in with a strong man in his forties, a peak third-rate man in military uniform, followed by four soldiers.

"I wonder what you call this general? What do you want from me?"

Luo Chen stood up, raised his hands to the visitor and smiled.

"This general is Pang Tong, a subordinate of General Qin's command in General Qin's Mansion at Wulingguan. I came here today because I heard that a large number of warriors came to Wulingguan today, so I came here to ask about the purpose of their visit."

When Pang Tongyi entered the room, he knew that the city guard was right. It was indeed this young man who was in charge of this group of people, and the most powerful third-rate young man was just a guard.

"Oh? What's the matter with me here? Do I still need to report to the general?" Luo Chen said with a smile.

"Young master, please don't blame me. This is not directed at the master and others. Wulingguan is an important border town. For the safety of Wulingguan, the General's Mansion stipulates that any person or thing that may endanger the safety of Wulingguan must be investigated. "

Pang Tong knew that the origins of this group of people were not simple, so he explained politely.

"That's it! If that's the case, then let me talk to General Pang! Anyway, this matter is also related to your General's Mansion." Luo Chen said.

"Is it related to our General's Mansion? I wonder what it is?"

Pang Tongtong was shocked when he heard that these warriors were coming towards the general's mansion.

Luo Chen smiled slightly and said: "I, Ziwu Villa, asked shopkeeper Zhao to buy dozens of horses from the grassland. When they entered Wuling Pass, they were requisitioned by your military.

Shopkeeper Zhao ran around for several days, but failed to get it back. Unfortunately, Luo had no choice but to bring someone here to find out."

Pang Tong was stunned when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he said:

"Did Mr. Luo make a mistake? Our general's office has not ordered the requisition of civilian supplies in recent years, let alone your horses."

Luo Chen glanced at Pang Tong strangely: "General Pang doesn't think that Luo and his people have traveled thousands of miles just to joke with you, right?

The people who recruited our horses were led by your Vice-General Wang from the General’s Mansion. Why don’t you, General Pang, go back and ask?”

Pang Tong heard that Wang Rengui led someone to do it, and looking at the looks of Luo Chen and others, he was basically sure that it was true, but of course Pang Tong would not say it directly:

"Whether this matter is true or not, we will investigate in detail after I go back and report to the general. Mr. Luo, please wait here quietly."

"Then I'll trouble General Pang. Luo will go to find Vice General Wang tomorrow morning, hoping to get news about General Pang before then. Otherwise, although our Ziwu Villa is a small family, not everyone has it.

Can be insulted."

With that said, Luo Chen put away the Qi Hidden Technique, and his mid-level second-rate strength exploded. A gust of wind suddenly came out of thin air in the room, making everything in the room rattle.

Seeing Luo Chen's sudden burst of strength, Pang Tong was shocked at first, and then a huge wave surged in his heart. Such a young second-rate mid-term warrior? He is only sixteen or seventeen years old! How does he practice this? Pang Tong has never seen it.

I have seen it. No, I have never heard of it.

Pang Tong knew that it would not be easy to cultivate such young masters. This time Wang Rengui was hit hard. If he did not do it well, it would even affect the general's palace. So he hurriedly said:

"Don't worry, Mr. Luo. If someone from my general's office did this, my general's office will definitely give Mr. Luo an explanation."

"That's good! Then Luo will wait here for news about General Pang."

Luo Chen calmed down his breath and said calmly.

"Then I'll take my leave."

In front of a second-rate mid-level warrior, Pang Tong lost much confidence.

"Go slowly, Li Hu, see off General Pang."

"General Pang, please."

Immediately, Li Hu led Pang Tong and others out of the room.

After Pang Tong and others left, Li Ge looked at Luo Chen with a smile: "Haha, look at you scaring people! Do you think they will hand over our horses?"

Luo Chen smiled and said: "If that General Wolf is really like what Shopkeeper Zhao said, I think he should be a smart man. Our strength lies here. If he doesn't want this Wuling Pass to be turned upside down, he will hand it over

Our horses.”

"That's the best. It saves us a lot of trouble."

Li Yuxi said with a smile.
