Chen Mu stood quietly in the heavy snow, watching the convoy that was about to disappear in the shadow of the snow.
When there was only heavy snowfall as far as the eye could see, Chen Mu shook off the snow stains all over his body and prepared to set off.
But the moment he turned back, a shout suddenly came from a distance.
"Brother Chen, wait!"
When I turned my head and looked around, I saw a man riding alone, roaring through the dense snow, while galloping towards this side.
It was none other than Huo Quxie.
This reddish-brown horse was very fast, and it only took ten breaths to reach in front of him.
When Huo Quxie tightened the reins, the horse gradually stopped.
"Oh, luckily I caught up."
After saying that, Huo Quxie dismounted from his horse and came to Chen Mu.
Chen Mu was a little confused: "General, what are you doing?"
Huo Quxie patted the fallen snow, and then said with a smile: "This time, your husband helped me, Long Xiajun, a lot, and I have always wanted to repay you, so these days, I sent a craftsman to make a sword for you, Quan...
…It’s just a show of indifference.”
After saying that, Huo Quxie took down the long knife that he had been carrying on his back.
Although the blade of the blade was still hidden in the scabbard, its true appearance could not be seen. When Chen Mu took it, he boldly took the blade out of the scabbard and saw how fierce and fierce the blade was.
It is still made of steel, the template of Tang Hengdao, but compared to the knives used by soldiers, it is several times more delicate and beautiful.
It is green and white in color, with less blue and more white. At first glance, it looks like a green dragon winding around the blade. It is extremely beautiful. The blade is smooth and straight, without any unevenness.
From this we can see that Huo Quxie put a lot of thought into this knife.
As a parting gift, Chen Mu thought he would not be polite, so he sheathed the sword and accepted it happily.
"Rituals and righteousness are all important. We have to say goodbye now, but I don't know when we will see each other again."
Huo Quxie smiled faintly: "Brother Chen, please don't bother me repeating the old talk. When you go back, you will probably be an ordinary person for the rest of your life. Why...don't you want to join me in making achievements in the army? You know...the battle has not been fought."
over."
Chen Mu shook his head and did not answer his question. Instead, he asked: "Tell me, in the past many years, why has the Longxia Dynasty been frequently bullied by foreign races and suffered successive defeats?"
"this……"
Looking at Chen Mu in the snow, Huo Quxie never expected to ask this question suddenly.
After pondering for a moment, he replied: "There are no talented people in the army. If Long Xia Army had people like Mr. earlier, there would be no need to worry about the alien race not being defeated."
Chen Mu shook his head: "Wrong, how could the Longxia Dynasty be short of talents with tens of millions of people? If a tree withers, it must first wither its roots. The root of the disease lies in the system of this court, in those politicians who are greedy and unjust, and only care about making profits and not caring about the corruption of the country.
On the body."
Now, Chen Mu already knew what kind of situation the imperial court was in.
After hearing that he was able to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Shu Army because of the help of the supervisor He Guan, Chen Mu knew that this dynasty was sick and had too many moths growing on it.
At first, Chen Mu did have the idea of staying in the army, but later, he suddenly discovered that fighting alone could not save the country.
At that time, the snow was getting heavier and heavier.
Chen Mu looked at the unreal Huo Quxie quietly, and then said: "I have always had an ideal, which is to reach the peak of power step by step, and then reshuffle the cards to revive the dynasty again, but joining the army does not seem to be able to achieve it.
This is my ideal.”
The sound was not loud, but it was so sonorous and powerful amid the rustle of falling snow.
Huo Quxie was silent. This was the first time that he knew what Chen Mu was really thinking. It turned out that this man had such great ambitions.
After a long time, he asked: "Do you want to be a powerful minister?"
Chen Mu shook his head, then put the long sword behind his back, and chuckled: "Being a knight, who in this world has said that wearing a bamboo hat and wearing a sword to cover one's face is a hero? I think that as long as you can save the world and save people,
, Anyone who makes the people peaceful and healthy can be called a hero."
Huo Quxie was greatly impressed when he heard this. Yes, as long as he can save the common people, who is not a hero?
At this point, Huo Quxie already understood what Chen Mu was thinking, so there was no need to say more. He clasped his fists and bowed, and just said: "Waiting for good news."
The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the mountains and fields are covered with white snow, and the snow on the ground is almost knee-high.
Chen Mu held up his hands and said, "I have to go to Lizhou. It's getting late. General Huo takes his leave."
Seeing that Chen Mu was alone, Huo Quxie hurriedly handed over the reins.
"How can we make it this way without a good horse?"
Chen Mu smiled: "No need, we can ride hundreds of miles a day."
Just when Huo Quxie was confused, Chen Mu shouted loudly on the field: "Roaring General!"
The sound lingered in the wilderness for a long time, but at the next moment, Chen Mu suddenly saw a mountain in the distance move suddenly.
The next moment, a big round head popped out.
He had a confused look on his face, but when he saw Chen Mu's figure the next moment, his eyes lit up instantly, he shook the snow off his body, and then he ran towards this direction.
After treating his arrow wound last time, I left him here. Now it seems that he is recovering quite well.
When he got closer, Chen Mu grabbed the red hair with one hand and put it on his back.
Huo Quxie stared blankly at the giant beast that looked like a small mountain in front of him, then looked at his own horse worth a thousand gold, and smiled helplessly.
Excuse me.
"With one ride, one sword, and one person, the whole party traveled thousands of miles across the mountains and rivers. Haha, Mr. Chen, I'm afraid the pleasures in the world in the novel are nothing more than this."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mu couldn't help but laugh. He stared at the snowy wilderness for a long time, and then said loudly: "I was thinking about writing a book when I go back this time. After you mentioned it, I already thought of a name.
"
"What name?"
""In the Snow"."
With just this sentence, Chen Mu Saran smiled again, then hugged his hands and just said: "Goodbye in the world."
After Huo Quxie said goodbye, Chen Mu drove the Roaring General and galloped towards the mountains and fields in the distance.
Looking at the figure that was about to disappear in the snowy field, Huo Quxie stood there for a long time and just said to himself: "A person is alone in the snow... The sword walks alone, it's such a snow."
When he arrived here, Huo Quxie got on his horse and then walked slowly on the snow towards Shuofang City.
Compared with the Roaring General, the Chollima was really weak. Along the way, Chen Mu hid under the bear armor and allowed the Roaring General to cross the mountains and ridges, almost never walking on a flat road.
Don't choose the best way, just take the shortest way.
In this way, we went all the way south, and after walking for about eight days, we finally arrived in Lizhou.
It was also when they arrived in Lizhou that General Roaring finally couldn't walk. It wasn't because he was physically weak, but because the terrain of Lizhou was enough to deter General Roaring from walking over mountains and ridges.
