Chapter 77 Support and Concealment

"About Brother Duanmu's request for support, I'm actually planning to contact the elders in the clan. They will definitely do their best to protect the people that the king and Doctor Fan value."

Turning around to look at the crowd, Peng Kui said with a sincere look.

"Peng Yizai is willing to agree to my request, and I will definitely ask the king and Doctor Fan for your credit in the future." Duanmu Shuliang's old voice was a little excited.

Zhao Qing was not surprised that Peng Ku could quickly contact the elders of the Peng clan.If Peng Gu didn't have such ability, Duanmu Shuliang didn't need to rush to Peng's residence early in the morning to discuss related matters.

But now it seems that the method of their contact should pay a considerable price.Otherwise, it wouldn't be just now that he formally agreed, and received a solemn thank you from Duanmu Shuliang.

Once again he took the porcelain vase containing the elixir and the fire-bronze armor from the servant. Peng Ku's face was calm, without the previous look of reluctance, and he handed the porcelain vase and armor to Zhao Qing and Zheng Dan respectively.

"Peng Yizai, I don't know what are the strengths of those clan elders that your Peng family may come to help? When will they arrive?"

After the fire copper armor appeared, Duanmu Shuliang felt the rising temperature in the room, and then asked.

The strength and arrival time of the reinforcements determined his plan for dealing with Wu's secret guards.

"Before tomorrow night, we should be able to reach Chungquan Township. I don't know their specific strengths. I only know that they are old people from my grandfather and great-grandfather's generation. better than me."

"Earlier, I stopped the caravan of your Duanmu family and forced to buy the elixir for my late father. In fact, it also meant to promote my filial piety, so as to gain the support of the elders, so that I had the opportunity to break through the realm and be promoted to the third-class sergeant. "

"I see. I hope that the elders of Yizhai are strong enough to deal with that Hongshang sword master from yesterday." Duanmu Shuliang stroked his white beard and nodded.

Is it really a show?No wonder the caravan was intercepted in public.Zhao Qing frowned, did Peng Kui expose such secrets about his character in order to provide a handle and gain trust?
The main world has a vast territory and a large population. The official hierarchy of the Yue Kingdom is divided into twelve levels from top to bottom.

Doctors are divided into three levels: upper doctor, middle doctor, and lower doctor.Among them, the top doctor is the Qing, and the sixteen princes are also equivalent to the title of the top doctor, which is different from the situation in some countries where the ministers and the princes are higher than the top officials.

Among them, Sikong, Situ, Sima, Sikou, and Sinong are the top doctors, also known as the "Five Doctors", and they are the most powerful officials in the Yue Kingdom.

Sergeants are divided into nine levels: first-class sergeant, second-class sergeant, third-class sergeant, fourth-class sergeant... seventh-class corporal, eighth-class corporal, and ninth-class corporal.

As the magistrate of another county, Peng Kui was a fourth-class sergeant. After being promoted, he became a third-class sergeant instead of a third-class sergeant. It was a big leap in rank.

The State of Yue is a country that favors martial arts. In many cases, its official titles need to reach a certain level of cultivation before it can be conferred.

For example, a senior officer above a sergeant usually needs to enter the realm of the lower six qi to be able to serve.

But it is not completely limited by the cultivation level of officials, like Fan Li, one of the five great officials, as far as Zhao Qing knows, his cultivation level should only be at the lower six qi level.However, his status in the Yue Kingdom is second only to Gou Jian himself, and is still higher than the Da Sima Zhuji Ying of the Upper Six Qi Realm.

The third-class sergeant is generally held by the top talents in Gang Jin or Hua Jin.According to Peng Kui, he just wanted to use the power in the clan to recommend and promote himself in order to gain opportunities for promotion.

"Actually, I have a question." Peng Ku rolled his eyes and asked, "After all, Wu State is the superior state of our Yue State. If you want to kill Wu State's secret guards at that time, Miss Zheng will be indispensable for this matter." cooperation."

Everyone was sure that the enemy would not move in reinforcements like themselves, because Wu Guomiwei didn't want his colleagues to come to claim credit.But if his life was really threatened, it would be impossible for him not to run away and ask for help.

It is better to have most of the credit taken away by others than to have zero credit or even lose your life.

From this point of view, if you want to counter-kill the opponent, you must have at least several times the difference in strength.And if you don't succeed in anti-killing, you will face greater danger.

"What do you mean? If the elders of the Ni family really come, I will cooperate with each other." Zheng Dan knocked on the heavy fire bronze armor and replied aloud.

"Miss Zheng, the specific meaning is, can you continue to use the explosive method you used yesterday? If not, the clan elders should adopt a strict defense method, with your safety as the most important thing, and then use it again." Consider whether you can successfully annihilate the enemy."

Peng Kui paused, turned his head to look at Zhao Qing, and then asked: "Miss Zhao, I don't know what sect and sect you are from? Can you tell me? Our Peng family also has a certain understanding of the seven sects of Kuaiji. We can cooperate well.”

Does this mean that I am regarded as a disciple of the Seven Great Sects of Kuaiji Mountain?Zhao Qing pondered in his heart whether to reveal his teacher's heritage.

Speaking of which, I haven't promised to help Zheng Dan yet, why does this Peng Gu think that I will participate?
It is estimated that he wants to curry favor with the future "princess", so he assumes that other people think the same way.

Zhao Qing squeezed her fingers, thinking that even if she did her best to fight the enemy for Zheng Dan, it was because of their friendship, not because of her status.

Suddenly, she heard an old voice as thin as a mosquito, but extremely clear.Zhao Qing recognized it was Duanmu Shuliang's voice, obviously this was a method of "transmitting sound into secret" that he used.

Duanmu Shuliang said softly: "Peng Ku is very concerned about fame and interests, but he gave away so many things at once, and even exposed his shortcomings. Obviously, he has a big plan. I suspect that there may be problems with him. You two, stay vigilant and don't Tell him the truth about yourself."

"I can still cast it once, but at most it will only last half of yesterday's duration." Apparently, Zheng Dan also heard Duanmu Shuliang's voice transmission and deliberately concealed his situation.

"Hidden sect, it's inconvenient to disclose, just treat me as an ordinary person." Immediately afterwards, Zhao Qing replied.

"Thank you two for the news. Brother Duanmu, I'm going to activate the liaison circle and ask the clan elders for help." After hearing the two people's answers, Peng Kui's forehead jumped, and he grabbed the linen robe on his body, Walk quickly to the back of the hall.

At this moment, a vigorous domestic servant hurried in and said in a low voice, "Lord Yizai, Lord Yuwei is asking for an explanation from you outside."

Yuwei is one of the officials in charge of the army in the county, and his rank is one level lower than that of Yizai.The Yuwei of Chongquanyi was a fifth-class sergeant, and should have been under Peng Ku's management.

However, he also has a clan force similar to Peng's behind him, and he is not Peng Kuo's complete subordinate.

Yuwei's son was killed by bandits you let go, and now Yuwei has come to your door.Zhao Qing smiled gloatingly, looked at Duanmu Shuliang who was also smiling beside him, and thought in his heart:

After leaving Peng Mansion later, you can ask about the situation of the bamboo slips in the caravan on the way. It is best to find out the origin of the volume "Lian Shan Yi".

 It seems to be crashing lately, anyone have some suggestions?Miserable~
