The sound of footsteps spread along the long street. People who still had lights on carefully opened their windows and took a look outside. Then they were pulled back by the mother-in-law and slammed the windows shut.
Lanterns illuminated the soldiers in white robes on the street, running quickly. Chen Qingzhi endured the pain in his limbs and tried hard to keep his horse from falling.
Yuan Hao sent the practitioner to steal my divine sword.
Now that the sword has been lost, we have no choice but to gather troops and enter the imperial city to confront him. Otherwise, how will we be able to live up to the gift of the sword from our husband, and how will we fulfill our promise to return the sword after entering Luoyang?
Qingzhi... never breaks trust with others.
"Hurry up!" He roared, looking ahead to the street, he suddenly saw a figure walking towards him. When he got closer, he saw the silhouette of the figure, which looked familiar. He hurriedly reined in the horse, and amidst the neighing of the war horse, he lost his words.
He shouted: "Sir?!"
The figure walked past a lantern under the eaves of a shop on the street, revealing his true face.
Wearing a gray robe and a white coat, he walked slowly with his hands behind his back.
The face reflected in the flickering lantern light was none other than Chen Yuan, but it was not the real person, but a dummy made from paper, with a soul consciousness attached to it.
"Thank you for being safe and sound."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingzhi hurriedly raised his hand to stop the team behind him, then got off his horse and quickly stepped forward to salute.
"How did you get to the city, sir... Qingzhi was about to leave..."
Chen Yuan said with a smile and interrupted him: "Going out of the city to mobilize troops?"
Opposite me, Chen Qingzhi was stunned for a moment. He probably understood that his husband already knew the whole thing. He couldn't help showing shame on his face and turned his head slightly to the side.
"I was speechless to face sir. The White Dragon Sword was stolen, but I knew who it was, so I had to mobilize troops to confront him face to face."
"I already know the matter."
Chen Yuan patted him on the shoulder. In the old world, he might not be able to do such an action, but after a lot of experience, his mentality has already changed. He was like a senior. He looked at Chen Qingzhi and said, "There is no need to fight, White Dragon Sword
At this moment, I have taken it back and put it in my mind."
Chen Qingzhi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the Divine Sword had returned to Zhenjun Temple.
"Sir, it's good to have it back. But Qingzhi still has to go outside the city. Yuan Hao crossed the river and demolished the bridge to send Xu Maoling to steal the sword. Obviously he wants to quarrel with me. If he stays here, he may risk his life.
Qingzhi is not afraid of death, but he cannot allow his brothers to lose their lives in vain, as this is not what a general would do."
hehe.
Chen Yuan chuckled softly and waved his hand: "With me here, how can I let you lose your life? You should stay in Luoyang for half a year. It won't be too late to leave after next spring."
"Sir, why is this?" Chen Qingzhi believed Chen Yuan's words, but he was still puzzled.
"The secret must not be leaked. Just follow it. Don't quarrel with Yuan Hao and swallow this matter back."
There are some things that Chen Yuan cannot explain clearly to the other party. If he talks too much, it may cause changes. Since the nodes need to be repaired, the best way is to follow the context.
"After the spring next year, if there are enemies from Hebei going south, you will excuse yourself from illness. Then you will take your brothers with you and go south together to the Liang Kingdom for missions."
"If there is an enemy coming, why don't you fight?"
"Do not hit!"
"But what if that Yuan Hao..."
Chen Yuan knew what he wanted to say, smiled, turned around and looked at the street where he came from, "He's here."
The rumble of horse hooves galloped down the street. The advancing cavalry held torches and saw the three hundred Liang soldiers, Chen Qingzhi and Chen Yuan parked here. They stopped immediately. The leader swallowed his saliva, touched his iron helmet and dismounted, and hurriedly
He ran to the back of the team, and not long after, the emperor, who was guarded by dozens of soldiers, came in with light armor and a sword on his waist.
Seeing Chen Yuan standing next to Chen Qingzhi, he hesitated for a moment, then put a smile on his face and strode over with his sleeves raised and his hands raised.
"Master! I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I never thought I would meet you here."
"Your Majesty is waiting for me. You may not know that I am also waiting for Your Majesty."
Chen Yuan returned the salute with her hands raised, and Chen Qingzhi on the side also raised his hands: "His Majesty brought him with you late at night.
Soldiers take to the streets, what are they trying to do?"
Yuan Hao on the other end was stunned for a moment after hearing Chen Yuan's words. Then when Chen Qingzhi's words came over, he quickly organized his words in his mind and said with a smile: "I saw that Mr. Wu Du was fine, and the stone in my heart was finally relieved."
He sighed and faced Chen Yuan again.
"The master didn't know something. I was blind and mistakenly mistook the demon for a master of cultivation and placed him next to me. Just now, the palace was in chaos. A man of god fell from the sky and beat him to death. General Qiu came to retaliate and said that the man of god had been beaten to death.
Xu Maoling took away a sword. After asking carefully, I found out that the sword was Wu Du Gong's white dragon.
I was confused for a moment and almost allowed this demon to succeed. As soon as he died, I immediately led my troops to the Wudu Duke's Mansion to check. If anything happens to Wudu Gong, I swear that I will set up an army to search all over the world and capture the demon and hand him over.
Let Mr. Wu Du deal with it."
sharp.
Chen Yuan still wanted to smooth things over with a few words of greeting, but the emperor had already arranged the whole story, which made people worry a lot.
"Haha, Your Majesty has a close connection with General Chen. After he was attacked, he realized that the person who stole the sword was the practitioner next to Your Majesty. He was afraid that he would not be able to deal with it, so he sent a message to me to help him, and he led his troops to protect him first.
But he didn’t know that the man had been killed by the gods I sent. He thought he was hiding in the palace and could do whatever he wanted with the help of dragon energy. But he didn’t know that in places like the palace, I could come and go whenever I wanted.”
Yuan Hao seemed to have been immobilized and froze in place. When he heard the last sentence and saw the look in the eyes of the master, he felt waves of coldness in his back muscles, and even his breathing became unsmooth.
He squeezed out a smile stiffly: "Master, this is really a magic trick... My eyes have been opened tonight."
"The magic of the gods is like the many stars in the sky. I only get one or two of them by chance." Chen Yuan smiled and cupped her hands towards the emperor, then bowed to Chen Qingzhi beside him, "It's over here. The white dragon has gone. Zhao Tianji
As you go, you must not violate anything, and dangers cannot be blocked. Just call me three times and I will answer your requests!"
Seeing Chen Yuan turn around and leave, Yuan Hao followed Chen Qing and chased after him, "Sir, please stay. I am sincere in my pursuit of immortality and seeking the way. Why don't you teach me? There are old forests and cliffs in the mountains. Isn't it too hard for you to live here for a long time? I will give it to you."
Officials and nobles, live in the palace forever, and enjoy the wealth and honor in the world with me!"
The figure who turned away just raised his hand and waved it back.
"Your Majesty's kindness is appreciated by the tourists in the mountains. Hahaha... The clay sculptures of green lanterns have been with me for this life. I wave my sleeves and look at the sun and the moon. No matter how many years pass by, I will experience thousands of springs and autumns..."
As the fallen cuffs swayed, the figure that seemed to be walking and floating passed by the soldiers, and quickly disappeared into the mist on the long street, leaving only Chen Yuan's words still echoing.
"...I only hope that if there is a demon somewhere the next day, call my name and kill the demon!"
