Six hundred and fortieth chapters: A sword that throws the world
Spring has come, but the wind and snow in the north are still there, but they are much smaller and intermittent.
The further south you go, the better the weather becomes. It's not as bitter and cold, but it's actually still cold, but winter will always pass, whether objectively or subjectively.
The monks who went south were in a much lower mood than when they went north. Although they all made their way home safely, some of their compatriots and friends stayed in Mobei forever.
In the team, there was a faint sad mood surrounding everyone.
The faces of the few academy gentlemen who followed did not look very good. Some students came to the academy this time, but there were also many casualties. Some of them were disciples of their friends. They were also thinking about how to explain to their old friends.
Wei Xu did not sit in the carriage, but drove the carriage and looked at the changing surrounding scenery, wondering what he was thinking.
In a carriage behind the team, Xie Nandu and Chen Chao were sitting opposite each other. Xie Nandu lowered his head and was writing something with an ink pen, while Chen Chao was looking at her and hesitated to speak.
I don't know how long it took, but Xie Nandu finished what he was doing, raised his head, and handed the thing in his hand to Chen Chao.
"Put it down."
Xie Nandu spoke slowly, his voice was not very loud, but he had an attitude that could not be criticized.
Chen Chao frowned and looked at the booklet in his hand, and found that it contained some of Xie Nandu's views on the Demon Realm and the Northern Territory. They were all conclusions based on the places she had been and the files she had read.
It can be said that it is almost no problem for Xie Nandu to become a general in the Northern Army, not to mention that she has already proven her ability.
She is very suitable for leading troops in war. The only problem is that she has no prestige in the army and she is a woman.
These two things are very troublesome.
Especially the second thing, there is still a prejudice against women in the world today.
Chen Chao said angrily: "I don't want to be a general, why should I remember this?"
Xie Nandu was too lazy to talk to him and just said: "Back it down."
Chen Chao sighed, had no choice but to put away the booklet, and said with a smile: "I'll memorize it when I have time, and I'll return it to you after reading it."
Xie Nandu shook his head and said, "No need."
Since she could write it down, she had already remembered these things clearly in her mind and no longer needed to read this so-called booklet.
Chen Chao muttered: "I really don't know how you got such a brain."
Xie Nandu said: "I don't know how your brain grew."
Chen Chao knew that he couldn't quarrel with the woman in front of him, so he didn't say much. Instead, he took out a handkerchief and imitated Xie Nandu's tone and said, "Put it on your back."
Xie Nandu took the handkerchief and frowned slightly, because it was obviously a handkerchief for women.
Chen Chao turned his head away with some guilt.
"What's this?"
Xie Nandu asked.
Chen Chao said: "A technique called Qi Watching is of great use, but I currently think its greatest use lies in whether you can judge whether others are lying."
Xie Nandu frowned and said, "Is it the Xin secret method of the Qi Refiner lineage?"
Chen Chao said in surprise: "You even know this?"
"There are many things in the library of the academy, and there are many records. It is not difficult to know this." Xie Nandu said calmly: "But this should be one of the most secretive methods in the Qi Refiner lineage, and it will not be spread to the outside world.
"
Speaking of this, Chen Chao felt more and more guilty.
Xie Nandu said softly: "You killed a female qigong practitioner just for this secret method?"
Chen Chao turned around and said with some dissatisfaction: "Why do you look at me like this?"
However, he quickly noticed Xie Nandu's expression, and Chen Chao said in frustration, "You are deceiving me."
"It seems that there is a woman who has a crush on you. Why don't you tell me the story?"
Xie Nandu smiled and spoke, but his eyes became much sharper, like a sword about to be unsheathed.
Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said: "There is no story, it's just..."
"Okay, don't talk about it now, wait until I master this secret technique, then talk about it?"
Xie Nandu seemed a little indifferent.
Chen Chao waved his hands and soon took the initiative to talk about what happened in Mobei.
After a long time, Xie Nandu said: "Since you are told not to tell others, why do you tell me?"
Chen Chao raised his eyebrows and said as expected: "Are you considered someone else?"
Xie Nandu smiled, handed the handkerchief back, and said calmly: "You can see for yourself, I don't need it."
Chen Chao asked: "Are you angry?"
Xie Nandu shook his head.
Chen Chao breathed a sigh of relief. Although he couldn't understand Xie Nandu's thoughts, since she said she wasn't angry, she definitely wasn't angry. There was no need to think too much about this kind of thing.
"No need to ask." Perhaps knowing that Chen Chao was going to ask, Xie Nandu shook his head and said, "Don't ask."
She said the same thing twice, but her tone was obviously much softer after that.
Chen Chao took back the handkerchief and put it in his arms.
Xie Nandu raised his eyebrows and said, "Can't you make a new copy and ruin the handkerchief?"
Chen Chao was stunned, he had never thought of it this way.
"That's all, just keep it in mind. Men are always like this, they want to remember everyone who treats him well."
Xie Nandu smiled, but his tone seemed a little sour?
Chen Chao felt that Xie Nandu was a little strange, but before he had time to ask anything, Xie Nandu said: "It seems that the Qi Refiner's view of the world is very different from that of the world."
Chen Chao said: "They are so talkative, but some of their methods are really good. For example, this secret method, I don't know if I can practice it."
Xie Nandu looked at him and said, "This trip to the north, how much more trust do you have in Your Majesty?"
Chen Chao nodded, there was no need for him to hide this from her.
"But it's a pity that the relationship between your uncle and nephew will be tested again."
Xie Nandu stared into Chen Chao's eyes, with some inexplicable emotions in her eyes.
Chen Chao remembered what the guardian envoy told him before.
Xie Nandu didn't want to betray anyone and said calmly: "I have received news that rumors have been spreading in the city of God recently. They are probably aimed at you. Your identity is about to be revealed."
Chen Chao's identity has always been a matter of concern to all forces in the capital, including outsiders. Many people have even vaguely guessed it, but they have never made it clear because there is no evidence. But now, it is different.
If rumors arise, they may be put to rest or they may be confirmed.
The outcome depends on what kind of outcome satisfies all parties.
Xie Nandu said softly: "This is a very troublesome thing, perhaps more dangerous than what you did in Mobei."
Chen Chao raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that ever since I learned about this matter, I have fallen into a certain trap."
"good."
Xie Nandu smiled and said, "Some progress has been made."
Chen Chao asked: "Do you have a solution?"
"No."
Xie Nandu smiled and said: "I am not a god. Many times, I am helpless about many things in the world."
"not to mention……"
Xie Nandu said softly: "This is the choice between you, uncle and nephew."
Chen Chao said: "Do you think he will kill me?"
Xie Nandu said: "You have to find this answer yourself."
Chen Chao smiled and said indifferently: "I already have the answer."
Xie Nandu frowned and said, "You shouldn't trust someone so easily."
"But blood is thicker than water and we are connected by blood. He is my biological uncle."
Chen Chao laughed and looked at Xie Nandu in front of him.
"Your brother did not regard His Majesty as his biological uncle." Xie Nandu noticed that Chen Chao was getting closer and closer, and frowned slightly.
Chen Chao smiled and said: "He is him and I am me."
"I made a bet when I met you that time and won. I will win this time too. I have no doubt."
When they were talking, Chen Chao was less than an inch away from Xie Nandu.
Xie Nandu frowned and said, "Go away..."
Before she finished speaking, her mouth was already blocked.
She frowned slightly, feeling someone's breath, and soon felt a little weak all over.
She stretched out her hand to push the man in front of her away, but after placing it on the man's chest, she really had no strength, so she had to put her hand on Chen Chao's shoulder.
After a long time, their lips parted, and Chen Chao whispered: "You took advantage of me last time, this time it's me."
Xie Nandu's cheeks were slightly red, "Shameless."
But before she could say anything else, someone stepped forward again.
The woman exhaled like a blue breath, "Don't touch it."

Outside the carriage, I don’t know when it started to rain.

Today is still one chapter. After a busy day, I took the time to write something that everyone will like to read. Of course, last time I said I would guarantee four chapters, I actually wrote four chapters, so I still have a little credibility. Tomorrow, I will still guarantee four chapters, so I should
There must be credibility.
One more thing, I haven’t stopped updating for almost two months. Some places show that I have stopped updating, so that has nothing to do with me.
