Looking at the familiar camp in front of him, Zhong Mo smiled and walked forward. When he reached the door, Zhong Mo shouted towards the inside.
"Uncle Spark! Uncle Spark!"
In the camp, someone opened the tent door and walked out. It was Xinghuo, the commander of the Qianyan Army stationed here.
"I knew it was you when I heard the sound. What's wrong, where is that boy Chongyun?"
Xinghuo walked out of the tent, smiled at Zhong Mo, and looked her up and down.
"Chongyun went to Wuwangpo to catch ghosts, and I came back alone."
"What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Zhong Mo shook his head: "It's nothing, I just passed by and came to see everyone."
"Is that so? Welcome!"
Zhong Mo followed Xing Huo into the tent, and Yan Slime followed her step by step, jumping up and down.
Seeing Xinghuo noticing the slime, Zhong Mo took the initiative to explain to him: "Its name is Manman, and it's a pet I keep."
"There are really people who keep slimes as pets..."
Zhong Mo asked curiously.
"What happened to Slime?"
"Oh, you don't know something. Slime is generally considered to have no intelligence, only instinct, and is completely unable to interact with humans. Moreover, it is difficult to find once it is hidden, so few people will raise it. But your slime is
Very well-behaved."
No matter what element the slime is, it can actually turn into some kind of liquid-like flowing form. Therefore, when the slime does not maintain a round shape, it is easy to turn into a puddle and hide, and it is also easy to escape from the sewer.
This is why a slime may pop out of a grassy field in the wild.
However, Zhong Mo's slime remained in this solidified state and followed Zhong Mo obediently, so Xinghuo said it was rare.
Zhong Mo looked around the tent and found that someone was missing.
"Uncle Spark, where is Uncle Echo?"
"Oh, you tell me, because of the wolves, the superiors decided to strengthen the security work in Guiliyuan, so they sent two new teams to Guiliyuan. Ai Ke and I are familiar with this place because we have been stationed in Guiliyuan for a long time.
terrain, he was called to help set up defenses."
"Where is Jiang Yi? Is Jiang Yi here?"
"Jiang Yi is definitely here, but he is probably still patrolling outside at the moment. Judging from this time, he will probably be back soon."
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a sound outside the tent, and Xinghuo took advantage of the situation and said.
"It should be Jiang Yi who has come back to take over."
Sure enough, as the tent door was opened, a middle-aged man walked in.
"The brother who just took over the shift told me that a little girl came to the camp today. I knew it was you who was back, Miss Zhong."
"Uncle Jiang, long time no see!"
"It won't be long, it will only be less than a week."
For these soldiers guarding the border, it is very normal for them not to see other acquaintances for several months except their comrades.
"Uncle Jiang, I have brought you some great news when I come back this time!"
"What good news?" Jiang Yi was a little confused.
"Guess?" Zhong Mo said with a playful smile.
"Could it be that the so-called [Holy Relic] was sold for a sky-high price?"
"No, forget it, let me tell you! Master Ningguang promised me a condition, that is, no matter how much Xiao Jiang spends on his treatment! All of it will be paid by Qixing!"
"Lord Ningguang!?" Looking at Zhong Mo's face, Jiang Yi seemed to suddenly react, "Yes! Brown hair, black eyes, blue hair, blue eyes. It's you and your alchemist friend who were mentioned in the announcement.
!Why did I just think of it now?"
"That's right! It's just the two of us, so there is no problem with Xiao Jiang's medical expenses! I came here specifically to bring you this good news!"
Jiang Yi first showed an expression of ecstasy, then looked at Zhong Mo and leaned forward. Zhong Mo and Xinghuo quickly caught him.
"Uncle Jiang! What are you doing again?"
Jiang Yi just showed an annoyed look.
"I can't repay you for your great kindness, girl!"
"Who said that! Didn't we make an agreement, uncle? This is not my kindness to you! This is a fair deal, I am just treating my little brother!"
Xinghuo looked at Jiang Yi and said to him with an expression that hated iron but not steel: "Okay, okay, how can a grown-up man behave like this, Jiang Yi!"
Jiang Yi reflexively stood up straight and shouted: "We're here!"
Xinghuo then said: "I'll grant you a month's leave, is that enough?"
Jiang Yi naturally knew what Xinghuo meant. It was a time when Guiliyuan was short of people, but Xinghuo still granted him a holiday and asked him to go back and take his son for medical treatment.
"Enough is enough! Commander, you will definitely see me return to my post in a month!"
"Good boy! Then I'll just wait for the good news!?"
Jiang Yi slapped his head: "No, I have to pack my luggage and I'm leaving now."
"What's the rush? Let's eat first. We'll go on our way when we're full!"
At this time, Zhong Mo finally had a chance to talk after hearing about the meal, and she quickly persuaded Jiang Yi.
"Yes, Uncle Jiang can eat first and then leave."
In fact, Zhong Mo was also hungry. She had eaten at Wangshu Inn, so she wouldn't have become hungry so quickly. However, Manman was so frightened that she paralyzed her. Zhong Mo could only send elemental power to it, which made Zhong Mo hungry again.
Already.
It can be said to be self-inflicted.
"Okay, Commander, let's finish eating before leaving."
"Haha! This is the right thing. Today is such a big happy event, but you must have a few drinks."
"Isn't this bad? Commander, you are still in the military camp."
"What are you afraid of? I have a small sip, it's just to warm my body. I know my own drinking capacity! I won't get drunk in the military camp!"
Zhong Mo showed a speechless expression. It seemed that the two of them were so drunk last time that they didn't even come to see him off when he and Chong Yun left.
Fortunately, the two of them were not drunk this time, they just had a few sips. After all, they both knew that they still had business to do.
After eating, Zhong Mo held Manman in his arms and waited at the entrance of the military camp. After a while, Jiang Yi walked out carrying his luggage and a spear.
"Uncle Jiang, please go and take Xiao Jiang to Mr. Baizhu in Bubulu in Liyue Port."
"Miss Zhong, won't you come with me?"
"No, I'm fast on my feet. If you go first, I can keep up with you."
Zhong Mo looked to the southeast, recalling the towering figure like a hill and the pain of breaking his own bones on a rainy night.
