Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

After leaving the Sixth Prince, Lu Xunhuan got on a carriage and went to Ruting Inn first. Then he helped a Feixian Sect disciple absorb the demonic energy from the demon beast's inner elixir. Then it was time for him to return to the courtyard in the south of the city to rest.

On the way, Elder He jumped onto the carriage and asked, "How is it?"

Lu Xunhuan smiled slightly: "Everything went well."

Elder He said, "I've thought about that story you told me before, and now I think it's possible. Will you be a registered disciple of Feixian Sect?"

Lu Xun Huan looked outside the carriage and said, "You're talking about those things here, aren't you afraid of being overheard?"

Elder He said, "Our Feixian Sect is the largest sect in Zhouguo. It's very difficult to join. One must pass the qualification assessment, character observation, and potential assessment before being accepted. Every year, more than a thousand people come to apply, but perhaps only a few remain."

Lu Xun Huan looked outside again and said, "Where are the things you promised me? If you really want to thank me, please get me a bottle of the eighth-grade immortal pill quickly to help me make some breakthroughs. The title of registered disciple sounds good, but it's not practical."

Elder He stroked his beard and rolled his eyes: "You don't know how to be kind."

Lu Xun Huan said, "Hurry up and report to the fairy and ask her to get me a bottle. I can even buy it myself. Otherwise, I won't help you."

Elder He did not respond to him. He stood up, got off the carriage, and left.

The carriage passed through the streets and alleys and arrived at Ruting Inn.

Lu Xunhuan walked in as usual and went to the room on the ground floor.

The girl at the counter saw him and hurriedly greeted him, "Sir."

Lu Xunhuan stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"

The girl at the counter came out and handed him a handkerchief. Then she whispered, "The boss bought this house and has been cleaning it out for a long time. It's finally ready for you to move in. He asked you to help the disciple and then go to the address on the handkerchief to find her."

Lu Xunhuan put the handkerchief in his pocket and said, "Thank you."

A quarter of an hour later, he helped his disciple absorb the evil spirit and left.

The address on the handkerchief was clearly written, and it was only a hundred steps away from Home Inn.

It was a stylish three-story loft with a very stylish exterior. Lu Xunhuan had passed by it several times before, but had never been inside.

He walked to the door and saw three powerful characters engraved on the wall beside the door: "Zi Yan Lou".

He looked around briefly and knocked on the door.

A moment later, the door opened and Li Ziyan appeared inside.

Lu Xunhuan entered the courtyard, closed the door, and glanced around the yard.

The yard is very clean and tidy, with many flower pots. The flowers in the pots are colorful and the fragrance is strong.

Li Zi Yan pulled him across the courtyard and into the attic, then she locked the attic door tightly.

Lu Xun Huan laughed and said, "Every time I see you, you always look anxious and irritated. Can you be more reserved?"

Li Ziyan giggled and pulled him upstairs: "Now that you're here, just go all out. What's there to be reserved about?"

Lu Xunhuan followed her upstairs, and looking at her twisting round buttocks, the flames in his heart immediately rose high.

The two of them went upstairs, and Li Ziyan pulled him into the room again. She was so impatient that she didn't even have time to close the door...

After a long time, the wind and rain stopped temporarily.

Lu Xun Huan asked, "This attic was occupied when I passed by it before. Are they willing to sell it to you?"

Li Ziyan kissed him and said, "I'll do whatever it takes to buy it. Then we can have a place to have fun in the future."

Lu Xun Huan asked again, "What do you mean by trying every possible means? Did they steal it by force?"

Li Ziyan stroked his face and said, "How could that be? They really didn't want to sell it at first, but then my uncle secretly met with that family and promised that some of the official purchases would be from that family. Only then did they readily agree to sell it to me."

Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "When officials and businessmen collude, your uncle will naturally benefit."

Li Ziyan kissed him again: "Don't say that about your uncle. He is our family, both to you and me. As long as your uncle holds a firm position in the Zhongzhou government office, no matter what we do, we will have someone to take care of us, and our branches will be able to open one after another."

"correct……"

As she spoke, she got up, opened the cabinet, took out a stack of banknotes, and went back to bed.

"for you."

Lu Xun Huan took the banknote, looked at it, and put it aside: "You worked so hard to earn this money, why would you give it to me? I don't usually need to spend it."

Li Ziyan melted into his arms again: "What's mine is yours. If you spend it happily, I will be happy too. If you spend it happily, I will be happy too. Just spend it. When you're done, your woman will help you earn more."

An inexplicable feeling of emotion welled up in Lu Xunhuan's heart.

Li Ziyan's hot lips stuck to him again.

After a while, the attic became lively again.

As the dew deepened, Lu Xunhuan asked Li Ziyan, "Your attic should at least be looked after and cleaned by someone, right? How can you find the time to do it yourself?"

Li Ziyan nodded in his arms: "Yes, we need to invite someone. I am anxious to bring you here to experience it. It's too late."

She hugged him infatuatedly: "It feels so good to be in a world with only the two of us..."

Two days later, the Sixth Prince really left Zhongzhou City with the Sixteenth Princess and the Eighteenth Prince, and everything seemed to have returned to normal.

Lu Xunhuan organized the soldiers to practice night combat.

Outside the east gate, Wei Ying sat in the carriage, looking at the dark mountain ridges in the distance.

"It's pitch black, what do you want me to watch?"

Lu Xunhuan turned around from the chariot next to him and said, "If there is a war in the future, night battles will be very common. We don't train during normal times, but we can attack or defend at night..."

"Okay, okay," Wei Ying interrupted him, "I'm not saying you shouldn't practice, but I can't see anything, so it's useless to practice."

Lu Xun Huan said, "If you can't see, listen. Listen to the movements everywhere to judge the battlefield situation."

Wei Ying got out of the carriage, jumped into the chariot, and sat down: "Lu Xunhuan, have you ever read military books before?"

Lu Xun Huan looked at her heroic appearance under the torchlight and asked, "Why, Master Wei, do you want to test me?"

Wei Ying said, "I just want to ask if you have read military books."

Lu Xunhuan nodded: "I have read it."

Wei Ying asked, "Which one have you read?"

Lu Xunhuan replied, "Sun Tzu's Art of War."

Wei Ying had a look of disdain on her face: "Lu Xunhuan, if you haven't read it, just honestly say you haven't read it. I won't look down on you. Stop talking nonsense, okay? What's Sun Tzu's Art of War? Grandpa's Art of War."

Lu Xunhuan smiled bitterly and said, "It really is Sun Tzu's Art of War, written by a military strategist named Sun."

Wei Ying stretched out her hand: "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth off. Where is this military strategist surnamed Sun from? How have I ever heard of him?"

Lu Xunhuan replied, "A Qi person."

Wei Ying really reached out and grabbed his face: "Are you done yet? Qi, where in the world is there a Qi?"

Lu Xun Huan shouted, "Hey, hey, Lord Wei, a gentleman should use his words, not his fists."

Wei Ying let go of her hand. "Talk, talk! I'm afraid of you. What military theories do you know? Tell me, let me see how powerful your mouth is."

Lu Xun Huan rubbed his face: "You are so rude, woman."

Wei Ying jumped to her feet, grabbed Lu Xunhuan, and pushed him down on the chariot: "How dare you disrespect this captain."

Lu Xunhuan respected her because her official position was higher than his and did not want to fight with her.

He said, "All right, all right, get up quickly, it will be bad if the soldiers see it."

Wei Ying shouted, "What's wrong? What's wrong? You're just asking for a fight."

Lu Xun Huan pushed her and said, "Stop it. No one knows what's going on and it's easy for people to misunderstand. They might even think we're having sex outdoors."

"Pfft..."

Not far from the chariot, there were several soldiers on guard who had heard the noise over there a long time ago and were all laughing.

Wei Ying blushed and let Lu Xunhuan go. "Get up! If you can't explain yourself to me today, I will punish you by making you run around Zhongzhou City until dawn."

Lu Xunhuan stood up, straightened his clothes, and adjusted his helmet.

"If you want to talk about military theory, I can talk to you for three days and three nights."

Wei Ying kicked him and said, "You're just good at talking. Go ahead and tell me. I'm listening."

Lu Xunhuan thought about it and began to recite "The Art of War".

"The Art of War, Chapter 1. Sun Tzu said: 'The great affairs of war, the great affairs of state, the place of life and death, the road to survival and destruction, must be carefully considered.'"

Wei Ying snorted, "You are that grandson."

Lu Xun Huan said, "I also hope that I can be that grandson, invincible in battle and unstoppable in attack."

Wei Ying snorted, "Explain."

Lu Xunhuan explained, "Sun Tzu said that war is a matter of national importance. It concerns the life and death of soldiers and civilians, and the survival of the nation. It must be carefully examined and studied."

After hearing this, Wei Ying said, "Nonsense! Even a three-year-old child knows these principles."

Lu Xun Huan recited again: "Therefore, we should examine it with five things, check it with strategies, and seek its truth. The first is the Way, the second is Heaven, the third is Earth, the fourth is the General, and the fifth is the Law."

Wei Ying frowned: "What language is this? Explain."

Lu Xunhuan translated, "Therefore, we must conduct a careful and in-depth comparative analysis from five aspects to understand the true situation of both sides and predict the probability of victory or defeat in the war. The first is the Way, the second is the time of day, the third is the terrain of the battlefield, the fourth is the generals, and the fifth is strict military law."

Wei Ying listened and pondered the idea for a moment. "That makes sense. The right time and place are indeed important. The right generals to lead the troops in battle are also crucial. Strict military discipline is also a must. But what is the Dao? It's so strange that it comes first."

Lu Xun Huan explained, "The so-called Dao means that before a war, we must unify our thoughts. From the emperor to the common people, we must unite as one and share the same hatred for the enemy. Only in this way can we share life and death and hardships together, and be able to face even the most difficult battles. To put it bluntly, it is harmony among people."

Wei Ying raised her hands again: "Are you looking for a fight? Just tell me the right time, right place, and right people. Wouldn't I understand? Why do you have to beat around the bush?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "That's what my grandson wrote. I just memorized it."

Wei Ying put down her hand: "What else did grandson say?"

Lu Xunhuan looked at the occasional torch in the distance and said, "We're training tonight. Let's find a special time someday and I'll spend the whole day discussing military theory with you."

Wei Ying said, "I asked Sima Cao about the questions you answered during the selection process. The questions you answered about things like conquering the enemy without fighting and besieging a point and attacking its reinforcements were very novel. That's why I wanted to ask you about military theory. Lu Xunhuan, I hope you're not just talking about it on paper, looking good but not putting it into practice."

Lu Xun Huan said, "Whether I am useful or not cannot be seen on the surface. Lord Wei must test it himself."

"Puchi", the soldiers on guard couldn't help laughing again.

Wei Ying heard the soldiers' laughter and came to her senses. She glared at him, "Lu Xunhuan, you dare to tease me, Captain? I will write down the truth in a memorial and present it to His Majesty."

Lu Xun Huan raised his hands: "No, I'm still waiting to be promoted to general."

Wei Ying said with a spit: "Stop dreaming, I'll be your grandson."

Lu Xun Huan touched his chin and said with a half-smile: "If you want a grandson, you must have a son first. How about the two of us..."

"Lu Xunhuan!" Wei Ying shouted, rushed over, twisted Lu Xunhuan over again, rode on his back, pressed his head and pretended to hit him.

Lu Xun Huan pretended to be in pain: "Ouch, Master Wei, be gentle, don't sit on me to death."

"Puchi", the soldiers couldn't help laughing again.
