Chapter 133 Scheming for a Long Time (1/2)

Gao Ge surrenders not only because he cannot defeat them. There is one more reason.

He wants to find out the reason why these soldiers and the general linger on the world.

To make the ghosts completely leave, there are only two ways.

One, eliminate them by force.

Second, help them with their unsolved problems and let them leave for reincarnation.

From the perspective of practice, Gao Ge is a practical man. It is true that he cannot beat them. Even if he suddenly becomes much stronger, he won’t be able to win. After all, this place is full of murderous intent, which greatly affects him. It has already been very hard for him to run the power of stars to resist the murderous intent, let alone fight against them.

Probably even the Dragon Court and the Cultivation Academy don’t expect that this place should be so dangerous.

They may have thought this place was merely haunted, so they assigned this task to Yue Xincheng and his team.

Never can they know that this place is haunted by the ghosts who have been lingering on for hundreds of years. And there are numerous trained-up soldiers in the building.

Even a cultivator in the realm of Strength Exposure or Strength Protection must die here if he pisses off these ghosts, let alone Yue Xincheng and his team.

The whole tube-shaped apartment building is surrounded by the great murderous intent. Gao Ge starts to wonder whether this place used to be a battlefield long time ago.

When the soldiers marching him pause, Gao Ge notices one room’s door is open so he goes inside himself. He finds that the strong man he met before is drinking Erguotou now.

“Good wine!” The strong man roars and the bodyguards standing behind him look so greedy.

Gao Ge sighs and makes a bow with hands folded in front.

“General, what can I do for you?”

The strong man looks at him and frowns, asking, “Why aren’t you kneeling down?”

“Because I am diagnosed with osteoporosis.” Gao Ge says.

The general is surprised and asks confusedly, “What does osteoporosis mean?”

“It means that I am not feeling well.” Gao Ge looks around only to find that the room has been in a mess and that there are wine bottles everywhere.

The general suddenly waves his hand to let the bodyguards retreat for the moment.

Afterwards, he says to Gao Ge, “Please take a seat.”

Gao Ge immediately sits down.

The general passes him a bottle of Erguotou, saying, “I saw that you were good at swordsmanship. Are you a martial arts cultivator? Are you willing to join the army and work for the nation?”

Gao Ge mumbles to himself that even if he really wants to join the army, he can never join this man’s army!

If he does, doesn’t he have to die here first? Otherwise, every soldier is ghost but him. He will be blamed for not fitting into the community.

“May I ask your name, please?” Gao Ge coughs and asks.

The strong man laughs and says, “I am General Xianwu of the Ming Dynasty. My clan name is Qin, given name is Yan and courtesy name is Luli so my full name is Qin Luli (Qin Luli pronounces like Calorie in Chinese.)!”

“It is lucky for him that his clan name is not Ka (“Ka Luli” means Calorie in Chinese).” Gao Ge thinks to himself.

“And you? What’s your name? Where are you from?” Qin Yan asks with a frown.

“My name is Gao Ge. I come from Jiangnan City, oh no, Jiangnan County.”

“Jiangnan County? Isn’t it hundreds of li far away? Why do you come here?”

Gao Ge really wants to tell him that he takes high-speed train here, but Qin Luli must be unable to understand and may kill Gao Ge out of anger. It is not worthy. Hence, Gao Ge answers loudly, “I am a refugee and pass by this place with my family.”

“Oh, I see. You haven’t answered my question yet. Will you join the army?” Qin Yan asks, “In light of your capability, if I recommend you, it must be no problem for you to become a Commandant Chengxin.”

Gao Ge suddenly feels that Qin Yan is very kind to offer the job of Commandant Chengxin, which must be a six-class officer in the Ming Dynasty.

Take things as they come. With an attitude like that, Gao Ge is quite calm.

After all, he cannot run away. Besides, with the soldiers here, he can never get away from them.

He has a feeling that Qin Yan asks him to come over not merely to simply let him join the army.
