Chapter 29 Going Home(1/2)
"You go and take a shower too."
Xu Qi'an looked at Lina, raised her finger to point to the pool, and did not forget to ask: "Is there some clean clothes in the fragments of the book from the ground?"
"Some, some, some."
Lina said a word, jumped on the rocks, and plunged into the pool.
Xu Qian turned her back and sat on the big rock, with only Mu Nanzhi and the little white fox in her arms beside her.
After Protector Hongying sent them here, he returned to Shiwanda Mountain.
"She is No. 5, a member of our Heaven and Earth Society, a young girl from the Southern Xinjiang Li Gu Tribe, who has been staying in the Xu Mansion in the capital."
Xu Qian explained: "I planned to go to southern Xinjiang, so I took her with me."
Munan Zhizhi rubbed the little white fox's head, looked in the direction of the pool, nodded calmly, and commented coldly:
"She's good looking and has a good figure, but she's a bit stupid. She'll definitely suffer from being alone in the world."
She was referring to this little girl from southern Xinjiang who was standing by the pool taking off her clothes so openly that she didn't even look back at the man behind her.
Either he's too stupid, or he has ulterior motives...
This act of proactively delivering benefits to Xu Qi'an, whether intentional or not, seemed to Mu Nanzhi to be provoking herself.
Xu Qian smiled and did not explain for Lina.
Women are petty and unreasonable in this regard. If you reason with her, what bad intentions can Lina have? Lina has no intentions at all. She will only think that you are quibbling and defending a green tea.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the master and apprentice came back in clean and tidy clothes after washing off the dirt.
"Cauldron~"
Xu Lingyin flew over, like a fat and light pig, leaping among the rocks, her messy hair flying behind her, and threw herself into Xu Qian's arms.
Xu Qian hugged her sister without moving, and then pushed her to Mu Nanzhi:
"Please help her tie her hair into a boy bun."
He smoothly took the little white fox from Munan Zhi.
Bai Ji looked at Xu Lingyin curiously with her dark eyes, and whispered:
"She is your sister!"
Yes, you are a fox cub, and she is a human cub...Xu Qi'an said "hmm" and introduced:
"Lingyin, this is Bai Ji, the sister of one of my eldest brother's friends. You have to get along well with her."
“Okay cauldron~”
Xu Lingyin nodded vigorously, stretched out her chubby hand and rubbed Bai Ji's head, then turned her head and swallowed quietly.
"Why are you swallowing your saliva?" Xu Qian asked.
"I didn't swallow my saliva." Xu Lingyin quibbled.
"You obviously swallowed your saliva just now."
"My stomach is full..."
Listening to the brother and sister talking, Bai Ji silently shrank into Xu Qian's arms, suddenly feeling a lack of security.
After Mu Nanzhi tied Xiao Douding into a boy bun, Xu Qian asked:
"What's going on? Why are you so depressed?"
When Lina heard this, she immediately showed a distressed expression:
"We always encountered trouble along the way. The Central Plains people we met along the way either wanted to sleep with me or wanted to eat Lingyin, but we beat them away.
"Later, an older man told me that we should pretend to be refugees and Lingyin to pretend to be a fool, so that we would not attract attention. Lingyin and I did what we did, and as expected we didn't run into any more trouble."
With a few simple words, Xu Qian immediately understood how bad the situation in Yuzhou was.
Already, some hungry refugees have started cannibalism.
And any beautiful woman, if she has no ability to protect herself, can only be reduced to a plaything in such troubled times.
Human nature is a hypocritical and ferocious beast, the law is the cage that imprisons it, and morality is the chain that binds it. But as the order gradually collapses, this ferocious beast will lose its restraints. The ancients said that when etiquette breaks down and music breaks down, the country will perish.
This means... Xu Qian sighed inwardly.
Everyone lit a bonfire by the Sandie Falls. Xu Qian shot a few pheasants and set up an iron pot to cook rice and meat. After eating and drinking, the group continued southward and entered the southern border.
...........
Yunzhou military camp, handsome tent.
Qi Guangbo stood in front of the map of Qingzhou propped up on a shelf and used a bamboo branch to point at several cities on the map one by one.
"Next, if we want to advance our troops to Qingzhou City, we need to break through three lines of defense. The first line of defense is Songshan County, Dongling, and Wanjun. Within five days, I want you to capture these three cities."
He tapped the word "Songshan" with a bamboo branch and said:
"Especially Songshan, with dangerous peaks to the south and Songhe River to the west, are difficult directions to attack. If you want to attack the city, you can only break through from the east city gate and north city gate. This place is like a nail, blocking our westward march.
Route. Yang Gong must have sent heavy troops to guard it.
"Which of you will pull out this nail for me?"
Ji Xuan said calmly: "This city can be destroyed within three days."
He expressed his willingness to take on this task.
Qi Guangbo shook his head: "You can't go, you have to go and fight Dongling. Lead Sun Xuanji to me and attract Qingzhou's attention."
"General, please feel free to leave it to the last general!"
In the seat, a tall and burly general stood up. His left eye was gray-white and empty, and he seemed to be unable to see, but his right eye had a sharp cold light.
This man's name is Zhuo Haoran, nicknamed "Butcher Zhuo". He has an aggressive and murderous temperament and can go crazy. No matter whether he is old, weak, women, children or young, there is no difference in his eyes.
When they occupied the mountains as bandits, they never left alive the plundering caravans. Every now and then they would lead their troops out to massacre civilians just to have fun.
Because of his violent temperament, he was not favored by other generals in the Yunzhou Army, but it was undeniable that this man had extremely strong military command and combat abilities.
Qi Guangbo once personally praised this man as a rare general.
"good!"
Qi Guangbo smiled and said: "If we can't capture Songshan County within five days, you can come back and clean the toilet."
Zhuo Haoran licked his lips, and his right eye shot out an excited yet cold light.
After the matter was finalized, Qi Guangbo smiled and said:
"With any luck, we will have new reinforcements within half a month."
Ji Xuan frowned: "Buddhism wants to retain its strength to deal with the Southern Demon. On the side of the Witch God Sect, the National Master has sent people to negotiate, but the Great Wizard rejected the alliance."
His eyes lit up: "Gu clan?"
Qi Guangbo nodded and glanced at the generals who also looked happy:
"Otherwise, wouldn't you find it strange? Where did Ge Wenxuan go?"
Ge Wenxuan is a disciple of the Imperial Master and an outstanding general of the Qingzhuang Sect in Qianlong City. He is good at resourcefulness and is extremely skilled in arranging troops and formations.
Such an outstanding young general should have a place in the army.
But after the Yunzhou Army uprising, he disappeared and never appeared.
Qi Guangbo said in a deep voice:
"When our army left Yunzhou, Jian Zheng was like a knife hanging above our heads. The national preceptor and Jia Luoshu Bodhisattva restrained him, but they were also restrained by Jian Zheng.
"This leaves the Imperial Advisor no time to plan other matters, such as the situation in Shiwandashan, and the alliance between Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom and Xu Qi'an, is an example.
"Fortunately, the Imperial Master had already anticipated this and left a clever plan for Ge Wenxuan to implement."
Ji Xuan nodded slowly.
After the uprising, the Imperial Preceptor and the Supervisor joined the chessboard, and the secret game in the past turned into an open fight.
While he and Jia Luoshu were restraining Jian Zheng, they were also restrained by Jian Zheng and were unable to plan anything else.
During this period, Xu Qi'an was given the opportunity to jump around, which led to the current tense situation in Shiwandashan.
"I'm just telling you, the National Master has a comprehensive plan, so how can he run out of ideas so easily?"
"There is no more Buddhism, but if the Gu clan sends troops to help, the result will still be the same."
"The Gu tribe in Southern Xinjiang has been grudged against Dafeng for a long time. They will definitely send troops. I will just wait for reinforcements."
The generals had almost blind confidence in Xu Pingfeng.
...........
Two days later, a group of four people and a fox came out of the barren mountains and came to the flat official road.
Under Lina's guidance, a group of four people and one fox cleverly avoided the tribes along the way, and finally arrived at the territory of the Li Gu tribe.
"Eighty miles further is Boshan, the headquarters of our Ligu tribe."
