Chen He was silent for a moment, saying nothing to Tian Heng's answer, and finally turned and left:
"Let's go, there's no need to stay in the city any longer."
Tian Heng pursed his lips, sighed softly, and shook his brows, seeming to be disappointed and helpless at Chen He's distrust.
However, he didn't say anything and followed Chen He honestly, heading towards the west of the city.
Next, they had to cross the mountains again to leave Songhai.
Although the inspection intensity when leaving the city was far less than when entering the city, neither of them was interested in betting on whether they were unlucky enough and honestly chose to return the same way.
………………
It's dusk.
In the mountains of Songhai City, the remnants of the Tenglong Legion camp.
Long Qie sat alone on a big rock on the edge of the cliff, looking at the clouds in the distance that were dyed red by the setting sun, letting the mountain peaks blow his fiery red hair, and his expression was a little blurry.
Today, he has been sitting here.
While waiting for Shao Yu's return, I was also thinking alone about why Shao Yu flinched yesterday.
Of course, the latter question is not important to him, because he firmly believes that Shaoyu will come back and lead his brothers to restore the military power of the Chu State.
So his mind is still thinking wildly most of the time.
At one moment, they were wondering why Shaoyu was abnormal yesterday, at another time, they were thinking about what they should do next after Shaoyu comes back, and at the next time, they were trying to remember where the remaining old Chu troops were... and so on.
Basically, I just think of where it is, but I may not actually figure out any meaningful answers or content.
From this point of view, the actual purpose of his sitting here is to... kill time?
It can also be understood that his purpose of leading the remaining troops to hide around Songhai was to wait for Shaoyu to appear. Now that the goal has been achieved, the only thing left is to wait for Shaoyu to figure it out on his own.
He himself really had nothing to do, and it was impossible to take his brothers down the mountain to go shopping. There was nothing else to do except sit here.
At this time, Long Qie, whose thoughts were drifting east and west, suddenly heard some commotion coming from behind him.
This broke his daze and made him a little surprised.
What could happen in this mountain forest that would cause these brothers under him to quarrel?
Even if an enemy appears, it should have been discovered by the spies deployed outside as early as possible, and then reported to him, the general!
While thinking about it, Long Qie picked up the helmet next to him, stood up and looked back. Then his whole body trembled and he froze in place motionless, but his eyes were full of excitement.
Following Long Qie's line of sight, he passed through the simple camp and past the soldiers in the camp, and saw three figures riding tall horses slowly walking out of the forest.
One rider is slightly behind, and the other two riders are ahead.
The two people walking in front were Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng.
Of course, the only person who can let these two lead the way is Shao Yu, the direct descendant of the Xiang clan.
At this time, Shao Yu had already put on the Seven Seas Dragon Armor that once belonged to him. The black and gold main color of the armor and stomach clearly exuded a sense of domineering. The six short spears behind him shone coldly, and his face was full of solemnity at this time.
Solemn color.
The horse under Shao Yu's crotch is also covered with a full set of silver-white armor, which perfectly matches the Seven Seas Dragon Armor with black as the main background color, and complements each other in the afterglow of the setting sun.
The three of them drove their mounts slowly through the crowd, gradually approaching Long Qie.
There was still some distance, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng pulled the reins to stop the horses at the same time with a tacit understanding, and silently watched Shao Yu, who had passed them, continue to walk towards Long Qe.
Finally, Shao Yu stopped the horses with a soft cry, and one person and one horse stopped in front of Long Qie.
At this time, Long Qie had also regained his composure, his face was solemn and there was no emotion at all.
As everyone watched, the two looked at each other, their eyes meeting in mid-air.
After the silent atmosphere lasted for a moment, Shao Yu, who had always had a sullen face, suddenly smiled and said to Long Qie solemnly and relaxedly:
"I'm back!"
After hearing these words, Long Qie's serious face instantly relaxed and smiled. Then he immediately returned to solemnity, folded his hands and cupped his fists, half-knelt on the ground and saluted:
"The final general of the Tenglong Legion, Long Qie, pays homage to the young master!"
As Long Qie knelt down to salute, all the surrounding remnants of the Tenglong Legion immediately knelt down on the ground to witness and cheer the return of their leader:
"Tenglong Legion, meet Young Master!"
………………
Songhai City, in the small courtyard of Guxun.
"Oh, what a pity. I couldn't find that boy Zhang Liang during the day."
Yan Lingji sat lazily on the stone bench in the courtyard, holding a peeled orange in her hand, and said with regret.
Gu Xun sat opposite Yan Lingji, holding peeled oranges in his hand and putting them into his mouth one by one. At the same time, he answered in a dumbfounded voice:
"Why don't you wander around the city for a long time during the day and just keep thinking about messing with the wife?"
"Really?" Yan Lingji leaned forward, supported her head with her palms, and defended herself pretending to be innocent, "I'm just helping others!"
"Think about it, there is an infatuated girl who cares about Zhang Liang and is looking for him. If he never shows up, how sad will the girl be?"
"I just want to help them connect and build a bridge."
"Really?" Gu Xun swallowed the last piece of the orange with an expressionless face and replied in a stick-reading tone, "But I think that with Gongsun Linglong's mentality...and body, he shouldn't worry about such a trivial matter.
I’m heartbroken.”
"You are doing this just to cause trouble for the ovary and to have fun for yourself."
"Alas! Do you know that fat woman who chased Zhang Liang?" Yan Lingji understood as soon as she heard this. Gu Xun knew the inside story.
"Ha!" Gu Xun laughed out loud, "That fat lady Gongsun Linglong doesn't hide her wolfish ambitions for her ovary at all, and she never avoids others. I know, isn't it normal?"
At the end, Gu Xun also complained by the way, "Speaking of which, you just said that she was an infatuated girl. Now you are calling her a fat woman. Isn't it a bit too hasty to kill the donkey?"
"I'm just telling the facts! I'm not scolding her on purpose, how can I call her Shamo Sha Donkey?" Yan Lingji casually twirled the nails of her other hand and responded casually.
"Oh, by the way, that fat woman seems to know the boy from Chu who is very close to Tianming, the one named... He Yu. She should have recognized the wanted notice for the boy from Chu posted on the notice board today.
I stared at it for a long time."
"Is this so..." Gu Xun smacked his lips, squinted his eyes and looked up at the dim skylight, and said lightly, "It seems that Li Si will soon launch a second attack on his sect."
Already."
"Are you talking about Little Sage Village? Those nerds are going to be in trouble?" Yan Lingji was a little excited when she heard this.
She has always had a lot of prejudice against Confucianism.
Of course, this is not her fault. Who makes Confucians prejudice against people like her?
