Chapter 1107: Blocking My Way
"Not long ago, Lu Qingbin was ordered by the Mou Nation to meet the Bailong people, not only fighting tenaciously and bravely, but also joining hands with me to defeat the Ya Nation general Wulu and capture him alive. I remember when this news reached Does Bailie, the people of Qucheng even set off firecrackers, and Does Bailie was proud again."
The Soul-Gathering Mirror gave a 'hehe': "Yes, after the victory report reached Does Bailie, the business of Yangshan's stores in Does Bailie got even better."
Island Master He took action to rescue Lu Qingbin, defeated the Ya Nation general, and even took in tens of thousands of homeless Bailong people; this had become a beautiful story in Does Bailie, and the streets all said Island Master He was strong and kind, with high integrity.
Everyone was happy and couldn't help but go to take care of the business of Yangshan's stores.
More than a dozen Yangshan native product stores sold out, all out of stock within a day.
"Old Six Lu's family produced a pair of talented children, and all the limelight recently has been theirs, and they are also popular among the people, and they are mixed with the Yangshan Archipelago, which the main branch hates the most." He Lingchuan asked the Soul-Gathering Mirror, "If you were the Lu family main branch, what would you think?"
"That is a bit unpleasant, and also a bit dangerous; after all, the Lu clan has always had a tradition of branch families usurping the main line." The mirror was very empathetic. "Hmm, it would be best to suppress their momentum."
Speaking of this, it understood without He Lingchuan explaining further: "Oh, so Lu Qinglin came back to do this."
"The war on the eastern front is not intense, where would the common people know? Lu Qinglin brings elite Mou Nation troops to the Does Bailie front line for a walk, letting people see the bravery and martial prowess of the Mou Nation cavalry, and the Does Bailie people will know that the Lu family main branch indeed received the support of the Mou Nation, and Lu Zhensheng's promise is also true." He Lingchuan asked it, "Even if Lu Qingbo and his sister can fight, if you were a Does Bailie person, would you have more confidence in the Mou Nation army, or in Lu Qingbin and his sister?"
"Uh, what's comparable about these two?"
"Right, what's comparable? Everyone knows that leaning against a big tree is good for shade." He Lingchuan then raised his cup and took a sip of water, "Lu Zhensheng used this move to bind himself, Lu Qinglin, and the Mou Nation together, making the people think that Lu Qinglin is equivalent to the power of the Mou Nation, and at the same time, it is a demonstration to Old Six Lu: My son is just better than your son!"
"Old Six Lu is not a fool either; after this incident, he will definitely hate the main branch even more." When Does Bailie was bullied by foreign enemies and in deep water, Lu Qinglin didn't come back; when his son defeated the enemy, Lu Qinglin came back to show off.
It would be strange if Old Six Lu could be comfortable in his heart.
"Lu Zhensheng's little thoughts are not worth mentioning, but Lu Qinglin returning to Does Bailie happens to be an eyesore and blocks my way!"
The Soul-Gathering Mirror asked him: "What are you going to do?"
He Lingchuan looked at the swaying tree shadows outside in a daze, without answering.

The sky is vast, the wilderness is boundless, the wind blows the grass low to reveal cattle and horses.
This was the first thing Sun Fuling saw when she got off the carriage.
She couldn't help but take a deep breath; the wind seemed sweet, and it was cool and refreshing.
Blue sky, white clouds, distant mountains, lakes, and endless wilderness, and horses galloping on the grass.
This painting was so beautiful it didn't seem real.
Of course, behind her was the post station that had been built for less than half a year.
Only she got off at the station alone; the woman in the same carriage saw her alone and couldn't help but lean on the carriage window and ask her: "Miss Sun, this wilderness is remote, didn't anyone come to pick you up?"
This girl had set off from Yuheng City with her whole family and traveled all the way together, but she only had a small bundle with her, unlike her family's big boxes and small bags, which they couldn't even lift.
Being single is good, light and nimble, no trouble.
It's just that this scholar is too beautiful; although she usually covers her face with a plain scarf, revealing only a pair of eyes, the men around still kept stealing glances at her.
Although she was draped in an apricot-colored cloak, the mountain wind still blew out her graceful figure.
"There is." Sun Fuling brushed the hair in front of her forehead, "By rights, they should have come by now, don't know why they are late."
The carriage team was about to continue moving forward; the woman's son also leaned to the window and handed her half a bag of garlic branches: "Beautiful sister, this is for you!"
Although he was missing two front teeth and spoke with a whistle, he already knew how to look at people and serve dishes.
The woman patted her son's head; the old woman who got off earlier, why didn't she have such good treatment?
Sun Fuling took it and smiled: "Thank you."
Just at this time, the sound of horse hooves behind the post station was like thunder, and in the blink of an eye, it approached here.
Four or five riders circled from behind the post station; the big black horse in the lead had oily hair, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth while running, with fierce prestige.
Sun Fuling was right in front, but the black horse didn't stop at all, directly hitting her.
People in the carriage team exclaimed.
Seeing that this girl, who was like a spirit deer, was about to be ruthlessly crushed under the hooves, the woman subconsciously covered her son's eyes, afraid he would see a tragic scene.
The black horse passed through, also as fast as lightning.
But the scene of the angry horse stepping on people that was imagined did not happen; everyone was stunned for a moment, and that apricot color was already floating on the black horse—
Just before the collision, the rider stretched out his arm and grabbed her onto the horse's back.
The child on the carriage shouted: "Sister was snatched away!"
The passengers were also dumbfounded; were there still bandits snatching people on the Panlong Wasteland? But they saw Sun Fuling lying on the bandit's shoulder, all smiles, waving at the child:
Goodbye.
In the blink of an eye, the elite cavalry went far away, soon turning into a few small black dots at the end of everyone's vision.
"The hat fell off!" Sun Fuling rode on the horse's back, quickly adjusting her posture, one hand pressing the hair messed up by the wind, "Putting on the posture of a bandit snatching a bride, who are you trying to scare?"
He Lingchuan rested his chin on her shoulder and took a deep breath: "So fragrant. Little lady, how about being my mountain stronghold mistress?"
"The horse smell on you is really big." Sun Fuling patted his face, "What if I don't follow?"
He gave a sinister smile: "Then don't blame me... Ouch!"
Sun Fuling grabbed his waist and twisted hard.
"Sss!" Tears almost fell from his eyes. The scholar's hand strength was still so ruthless.
The riders galloped on the grassland, sparse and wild.
There was almost no road here, but wooden houses and tents could often be seen, scattered around water sources.
There were lakes and streams on the wilderness, and even clear sweet springs, and distant mountains that couldn't be approached no matter how much one ran.
The herdsmen smiled and greeted He Lingchuan when they saw him approaching.
"The last time I came to Tianhe Plain, this was still a barren valley; when the wind blew, gray haze filled the sky, and sand and dust blurred people's eyes." Sun Fuling sighed sincerely, "This place has truly changed, I don't even recognize it."
"When did you come last time?"
"Hmm, a long time ago, six or seven years?" Tianhe Plain was located west of Longhou Pass, which was the intersection of Panlong Wasteland and Maohe Plain, a typical long mountain and big valley, and the altitude was high.
