Chapter 1608 Don’t Praise Me
Chapter 1608 Don’t Praise Me
Lin Jing's breathing was slightly short: "Phoenix Gu is the king of all Gu. There should be nothing in this world that can restrain it."
"Why not?" Chen Changli immediately told the story of the red silkworm, and said earnestly, "Chang Xuewei killed so many Gu tribe members, and brought the Gu tribe saint Yanran with her."
"Yanran knew nothing, but she quietly cooperated with her in researching Gu worms, which obviously helped her gain a lot."
"We have never understood her confidence, so how can we know how many cards she has in her hand?"
Chen Changli had witnessed with his own eyes how powerful the red silkworm was. Although the Phoenix Gu was slightly better in the end, it also took some time for it to overpower the other poisonous insects and Gu Kings, and it was no longer as overwhelming as before and making them tremble in fear.
Therefore, Chen Changli had to speculate and be vigilant about how many such red silkworms Chang Xuewei had in her hands, and even how many were more powerful than the red silkworms.
"What you said makes sense. Besides, everything has its own counteraction. Phoenix Gu is so famous, it doesn't make sense that there wouldn't be something that counteracts it." Lin Jing lowered his eyes, his tone heavy.
Chen Changli's biggest trump card is the Phoenix Gu. If the Phoenix Gu is restrained, he will be in danger.
"Where is your wife?" Lin Jing felt uneasy, and immediately thought of Wan Shufang, who was an excellent doctor.
Chen Changli's face was not very good: "She was taken away by the Eighth Prince."
When Lin Jing heard this, he frowned and said, "The Eighth Prince is really cunning."
Wan Shufang is Chen Changli's weak spot. If the Eighth Prince takes her away, won't he be able to use Wan Shufang to plot against Chen Changli in the future?
When Lin Jing thought of this, the feeling of uneasiness became more intense, as if it was about to turn into substance and burst out from his chest.
"We have to contact Ye Xuan as soon as possible and ask him to be careful of the Eighth Prince. If possible, rescue Wan Shufang first."
Lin Jing was about to stand up as he spoke, but his injuries were too severe. The slightest movement he made pulled the wound, causing him to gasp.
Chen Changli hurriedly stepped forward and held his shoulders, saying in a gentle tone: "I have arranged for Han Yi to return to Bashu. With him and Ye Xuan joining forces, the Eighth Prince is nothing."
After a slight pause, Chen Changli continued, "I am now focusing on the affairs of the Ninth Prince and Mingyue Mountain."
Lin Jing carefully looked at Chen Changli's expression for a while, and was relieved to be sure that he was not distracted by love at the moment.
"The iron ore issue is of great importance, but Wen Baicao did not tell the Eighth Prince. It is obvious that in his mind, the Eighth Prince does not have the strength to compete for the world."
"But the people around the Eighth Prince don't think so. If Wen Baicao's behavior is exposed, he will definitely become the target of public criticism."
"It's a pity that Wen Baicao ran faster than the Eighth Prince, so when the iron mine incident broke out, we couldn't use the Eighth Prince to cause him more trouble."
After Lin Jing said this, he felt more and more that Wen Baicao had big plans.
"I asked before, he doesn't plan to fight for the world, but the iron ore matter confuses me again. I suspect your guess is true. He may have the same idea as Chang Xuewei."
After saying this, his face looked unhappy, as if he was in a heavy mood but unable to vent.
"Can people really go this crazy? Turning everyone in the world into living dead and keeping yourself alive, no matter who you tell this to, it will be considered ridiculous and absurd."
"But there are people in this world who think this way and are prepared to do this."
Lin Jing unconsciously clenched his fists, raised his eyes, and said in a confused and helpless voice: "Chen Changli, I'm really worried that one day their plan will succeed, and we will die unclearly."
Chen Changli's expression was calm and somewhat cruel: "It is precisely because these people are too crazy that we have to find the right opportunity to strike them in one go."
"However, they have made preparations for many years. We don't know who are the powerful people under their command and what arrangements they have made in secret. Now we can only take one step at a time."
Lin Jing smiled coldly and said, "Perhaps they calculated this, so they appeared in front of us without fear."
"I just couldn't stand seeing them like this, so I took the opportunity to kill Chang Xuewei. Unfortunately, I was injured, and although my strength seemed sufficient, it wasn't enough to penetrate her heart. Otherwise, she would have died in Yongzhou City, and there was no way she would have been taken away."
Speaking of this matter, Lin Jing's heart was filled with regret.
He should hold on a little longer and then throw another arrow.
"The arrow you gave me was good enough. If I were in that situation, I wouldn't do as well as you." Chen Changli thought so sincerely, and his tone was full of sigh.
Lin Jing's reaction was really unexpected, and Chen Changli admired him very much.
"Don't praise me." Lin Jing showed a knowing smile on his face, "I just did whatever I thought of, and that's why this happened."
"If you do this, it will definitely pierce Chang Xuewei's heart and make her unable to return."
Chen Changli shook his head helplessly: "You asked me not to praise you, then how can you praise me? Lin Jing, you have to know that I am just an ordinary person. If you place high hopes on me, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment in the future."
He never thought of himself as a great man, but he gained the so-called fame just because he worked a little harder to survive and had good luck.
But once everyone ignored him like the old emperor did, he would be forgotten by everyone, so he clearly realized that even if he was a good horse, he would never become famous without a good Bole.
Listening to Chen Changli's words, Lin Jing was touched and sighed repeatedly: "Don't underestimate yourself. You should know that there are countless talented people in Dajing, but there are very few people like you who can rise from obscurity."
"So you have to be proud of this and not be influenced by the outside world."
The emperor had many capable warriors under his command, but the emperor did not need them. In order to guess the emperor's thoughts, they deliberately disguised themselves, and this disguise really made themselves stupid.
Lin Jing returned to the capital from the Western Regions and secretly inquired about the news. He learned about these people's affairs and couldn't help but feel sad for them.
But they are already useless, and as they get older, they just want to spend the rest of their lives in peace. They no longer have the ambition and determination they had when they were young. He can't help but feel that these people are sad and pitiful.
Chen Changli is better than them. After all, he rose from obscurity, and he knows how to disguise himself without giving up his abilities.
"Once Yongzhou City is settled and we go to Bashu, you will be able to shine. Then you can do your own thing without having to worry so much."
Lin Jing's words were full of comfort. Chen Changli smiled after hearing them, and all the words in his heart turned into one sentence: "Thank you."
"Do you think it is possible for Wen Baicao to tell the Ninth Prince about the iron mine?" Lin Jing stroked his beard and thought for a moment, then he came up with an idea.
Chen Changli was slightly surprised: "Everyone knows the importance of iron ore, how could he do this?"
