"When the time comes, I will personally hand the things over to you."

Outside the city, looking at Song Li in front of him, Chen Ming said this.

After the words fell, Song Li was stunned for a moment, but did not continue to talk about this topic. Instead, he asked: "But I don't know how Liu Zhuangshi feels about my previous proposal?"

He spoke with a very attentive expression on his face: "I have asked the monarch for instructions. As long as the warriors are willing, the three southern counties of the Song Dynasty can be ceded to the warriors immediately."

He finally brought up this proposal, and brought up the previous proposal of splitting the earth and making a prince.

This isn't the first time he mentioned it.

It seems that they were frightened by Chen Ming's force. During this period of time, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty were very friendly and mentioned more than once that they wanted Chen Ming to stay and become a marquis in the Song Dynasty.

Unfortunately, Chen Ming had no interest in the Marquis of the Song Dynasty and declined them all.

It's the same now.

He smiled and rejected Song Li's proposal again, and then he didn't stay too long, just smiled, turned around and left.

Before leaving, he looked thoughtfully at a corner, smiled at that corner, and then walked away.

After he left, Song Li immediately turned around and looked behind him.

In the corner where Chen Ming had been looking, he saw an old man with white hair, sweating profusely, and wearing a gray robe, slowly walking out.

"granduncle!"

Looking at the old man, Song Li looked respectful and immediately stepped forward to say hello. His attitude seemed very respectful and he put himself in the position of a junior: "What can you see?"

"I did see something."

Facing Song Li, the old man wiped the sweat from his head and sighed with some fear: "This man's strong fighting spirit is rare in the world. I can't do it..."

After listening to these words, Song Li's expression did not change at all, and there was no ups and downs in his heart.

He had seen Chen Ming's ferocity with his own eyes, so he naturally understood what magnitude it was.

How can a ruthless man who can fight with a black snake and kill it be compared to an old man who is about to die with half of his body in his body?

Of course, even though I think so in my heart, I still have to say polite words on the surface.

So, with a respectful expression on his face, he looked at the old man and said, "Uncle, don't be discouraged. Although this man is strong, he is just relying on his youth and arrogance. If you, uncle, can be two hundred years younger, you can naturally win him down."

"Li'er, you're overly flattering."

The old man sighed softly: "It would be fine if it were someone else, but I am absolutely no match for this person."

"Even if I am young and prosperous, and I fight to the death with this person, I will probably be the one who dies in the end, or at most I will be seriously injured."

"So terrifying?"

At this time, Song Li's expression finally changed, with some surprise on his face: "Why is that so?"

"In terms of cultivation, between brothers, he and I are both at the top of the innate world. We are only one step away from taking the final step and becoming the supreme master."

The old man shook his head and said calmly: "But compared to what I have learned, this person seems to be born for fighting. His whole body is condensed with fighting spirit. Even with a random move, I am afraid that the momentum he can exert will be even greater."

Thirty percent."

"When it comes to fighting, I am far from his opponent."

He said this, but at the end, there was some hesitation on his face: "However, after I observed this person for a long time, I found that there was a faint feeling of disharmony in his body, as if there was a hidden injury in his body that had not been completely healed."

"That's not surprising."

Song Li shook his head and said: "According to what I saw half a month ago, this man was as powerful as the Black Snake and killed him in one night. How could he not leave any traces on his body? Some injuries are quite normal."

"That's true."

The old man thought about it for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement without thinking further.

Three days passed quickly.

Three days later, Chen Ming handed the snake bead to Song Li, then put away several thick illustrated books he had brought, handed them over, and turned around to leave.

He didn't leave too far, but when he arrived at the place where he had been living for a while, he stopped and opened the box in his hand.

After the box was opened, five thick books were revealed inside, each containing a piece of military tactics.

Among them, the light soldier tactics that Song Li promised before are also included, but compared to what the other party gave to Chen Ming before, the content here is much more detailed, and it looks profound and sophisticated.

.

"Um?"

After flipping through a few tactics, Chen Ming was stunned and found something new at the bottom of the box.

At the bottom of the box, a green gemstone lay quietly there, emitting a faint fluorescence at the moment.

This thing looks somewhat similar to the snake bead that Chen Ming gave to Song Li, but inside it is completely different.

Contained in the snake beads is the violent vitality in the black snake's body, and the power contained in it is violent.

But this green orb contains a warm and gentle vitality. When you touch it on your hand, you will feel that there is a flow of energy flowing into the body, which is very comfortable.

"This is... medicine beads."

Looking at this gem, Chen Ming touched it in his hand for a long time, and then he barely recognized the thing in his hand.

Medicine beads are a unique and precious thing in this world. They contain extremely powerful medicinal properties. Wearing them on the body for a long time can make people's muscles and bones strong and prevent internal injuries. They are known as the king of medicine in this world.

"I have good intentions, but it's a pity that it's of no use to me..."

Accepting the medicine bead in front of him, Chen Ming shook his head.

The other party would deliberately add this medicine bead. Apparently the person who was lurking that day saw something, so he gave it as a favor.

Unfortunately, what he suffered was not a conventional injury, but a fracture of his origin, and the medicine bead in front of him could do nothing at all.

But since the things were delivered, Chen Ming would not refuse them.

After memorizing several tactics, he waved his hand and a burst of energy instantly shattered the secrets into dust.

Then he put away the medicine beads, stood up from where he was, strode up and looked into the distance.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now that things have happened, it is time for Chen Ming to find something more meaningful to do.

"Tianzhou..."

He raised his head and murmured in his mouth, and then his entire figure gradually faded away on the spot, and finally disappeared directly here.

Tens of days later.

In a city on the border of Zhongzhou, Chen Ming was wandering around.

Zhongzhou is a continent relative to the Central Region and the High Region, covering a very large area.

Compared with the single residence in Zhongyu and Gaoyu, Zhongzhou seems a lot more chaotic.

There are Central Plains people, barbarians, dark-skinned, short-looking wild people here, and some demon relics who are rumored to have inherited the bloodline of ancient demon gods.

Even just wandering around the city on the border of Zhongzhou, Chen Ming has already felt that this city is different from other places.

Most of the people pulling carts on the roadside and carrying them on their shoulders are wild people covered in black skins; those driving cattle and horses, carrying swords beside them, are mostly barbarians who go to the city to trade; some wearing mid-domain and high-domain costumes are mostly barbarians.

He is from the Central Plains.

For example, if Chen Ming enters the city dressed like this, he doesn't need to introduce himself at all, and others will know that he is from the Central Plains.

Chen Ming wandered around the city, trying to find a map of Tianzhou.

Unlike the Central Region and the High Region, the Zhongzhou area is too large and the terrain is too complex.

Chen Ming was alone, unfamiliar with the place, and had no idea how to get to the Kingdom of Heavenly Fire.

However, after searching around the city for a long time, Chen Ming was finally disappointed.

This is not a modern society with developed information and cheap transportation, but an alien world.

If you want a map that can cover the surrounding roads, I'm afraid even the city lord may not have one, let alone these ordinary people.

What's even more frustrating is that Chen Ming searched around for a long time, trying his best to find out some news about the Kingdom of Skyfire, but the final result was very little.

No one knows where the Kingdom of Heavenly Fire is, nor does they know any news about this country. It is as if this country does not exist at all.

This situation gave Chen Ming an ominous premonition.

"The Kingdom of Heavenly Fire is probably still far, far away from where I am now..."

As he walked past a foreign caravan and looked at the crowded streets around him, this thought flashed through Chen Ming's mind.

"Young man." At this time, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Um?"

Chen Ming looked up and saw a person standing in front of him.

He was a middle-aged man who looked quite energetic, with a strong body and a somewhat thick and dark skin. He looked like a barbarian who had grown up on the grasslands, but he was dressed like a man from the Middle Kingdom.

"Who are you......"

Looking at this person, Chen Ming was stunned for a long time, and finally asked.

"My surname is Zhao, my name is Zhao Xie, and people around me call me Zhao Laosan."
