Long Chen smelled his fingers and saw a faint smell of perfume.
"Sisters from the same mother have the same physique."
Long Chen carefully put Wu Xiangyun down and got out of bed to dress and wash himself.
After a night's sleep, both hands have almost recovered.
This Tian Liang has been of great help, Bai Mu Dan is really a miracle medicine. When I return to the capital, I will think of a way to thank him.
After washing up, Long Chen went out to Bai Tingting's room.
When Wu Xiangyun heard the sound of the door closing, she slowly opened her eyes, then slowly turned her head to make sure Long Chen was gone, and then she slowly got up.
In fact, Wu Xiangyun had woken up long ago, but she was embarrassed.
I was struggling in bed last night, and I didn't have the nerve to see Long Chen today, so I just pretended to be asleep.
He stood up, changed into a pair of pants, and then put on his clothes and military uniform.
Long Chen entered the room and saw Bai Tingting getting dressed.
"Why are you up? You are so weak."
Long Chen stepped forward and helped Bai Tingting put on her coat.
Bai Tingting was in good spirits and said: "That blood pill is really good. I feel completely better today and I don't feel dizzy at all."
It turned out that due to excessive blood loss, Bai Tingting felt dizzy even while lying down, but now she feels nothing at all.
"How is the wound?"
Long Chen opened Bai Tingting's bottom shirt and wanted to see the wound on her heart.
Bai Tingting immediately covered her bottom clothes and turned away from Long Chen: "What are you doing? You just eat my tofu when I happen to be there."
Long Chen smiled and said: "It's not like I haven't eaten before. Show me how the wound is doing."
No matter what Long Chen said, Bai Tingting just wouldn't show it.
Wu Xiangyun came in from the outside and saw Long Chen taking off his clothes. He stopped in front and said with disgust: "I didn't have enough fun last night. I came here early in the morning to take off his clothes."
Long Chen said seriously: "Why are you taking off your clothes? I'm just showing her how the wound is doing."
Bai Tingting flatly refused and said, "I'm recovering well, no need to look at it."
Wu Xiangyun also said: "That's right, don't look at it! The pervert!"
There was no other way, both of them refused, so Long Chen had no choice but to give up.
"You continue to recuperate here, and I will go back to Jade Buddha Pass to explain everything, and then we will return to Beijing."
The Jade Buddha Pass has been left to Zhang Qian and a few people to take care of it, and it should be almost done. Long Chen will go back and make arrangements, and he can almost return to the capital.
Bai Tingting nodded and said, "Go ahead, I'll wait for you here."
Wu Xiangyun and Bai Tingting had a quarrel for a while, and then went to Jade Buddha Pass with Long Chen.
After the people left, Bai Tingting opened her collar, looked down at the scar on her heart, and sighed quietly.
"Will the adults dislike me?"
The wound caused by the crescent halberd was too big, and even if it healed, the scar would still be huge.
Closing her collar, Bai Tingting felt sad.
Long Chen rode to Jade Buddha Pass and entered the commander's mansion. Zhang Qian and Wu Jian were discussing how to strengthen the city's defense.
"Sir, is your hand okay?"
Zhang Qian was pleasantly surprised to find that the gauze on Long Chen's arms was gone.
Wu Jian stepped forward and took Long Chen's arm, rolled up his sleeves and took a closer look. There were still some scabs on the skin that had not fallen off, but the newly grown skin and flesh were all very good, and the bones were straight, with no sequelae.
"What medicine did your Excellency take?"
Wu Jian asked.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Yes, the shopkeeper of Yuelai Inn gave me a Bai Mu Dan, and the effect was amazing."
Zhang Qian said happily: "This shopkeeper looks cold, I didn't expect him to be so good."
Wu Jian's face was serious and he asked: "What does he want?"
Such a good miracle medicine must be worth a lot of money and cannot be given away for free.
Long Chen said: "He didn't say, I have to find a way to return this favor to him."
In fact, Long Chen would rather Tian Liang offer a price, even a million taels of silver, which is better than owing an unknown favor.
Wu Jian said: "It would be better to return the favor as soon as possible."
Long Chen said: "Go back and find a way to pay it back."
If you owe a favor, you are afraid that others will ask for it at the critical moment, and you will be in a dilemma when the time comes.
"Is the defense at Jade Buddha Pass ready?"
Long Chen sat down.
Dugu Jiali and Wu Chuchu came in from outside and sat together in the main hall.
"The city gate is almost repaired, but the burned houses in the city need to be rebuilt, which may take some time."
Dugu Jiali gave a brief summary of the city's renovation situation.
Long Chen said: "Xixia has taken action this time. There will definitely be friction and conflicts in the future. The city wall on the west will be reinforced, and two small cities will be built on both sides of the Jade Buddha on the west gate to guard the west gate."
Wu Chuchu said: "The land on both sides of the Jade Buddha belongs to Xixia. Will we anger Xixia by building a small town?"
Long Chen sneered and said: "They took away Jing Tianlie and interfered in my affairs. Of course I want to get some interest back. I'm sure they won't interfere."
Xixia must be thinking about how to explain Monk Kongji's intervention to the world. Long Chen built two small cities in Ximen, which can give Xixia an excuse.
Wu Jian asked: "Is it built with cement? This is the fastest."
The last time Linjiang City was rebuilt, cement was used, which was fast and strong.
Long Chen said: "Yes, just use cement. Stones are everywhere here. I want to build two small cities in ten days."
The weather here is dry and cold, the cement solidifies quickly, and hundreds of thousands of troops started construction at the same time, enough to complete the construction.
Wu Jian will go and do it immediately.
In the next ten days, Long Chen trained troops at Jade Buddha Pass, and at the same time appeased the people around him. He distributed the food stored by the Red Flame Army to the people for the winter, and gave the extra military uniforms to the people to keep out the cold.
The people around him benefited from the benefits, and in addition to rescuing the new soldiers, they all said that Long Chen was a rare and good official.
Ten days later, the construction of two small cities outside the West Gate was completed, each of which could accommodate 20,000 people, echoing the West Gate.
Long Chen stood on the sentry tower of the small town and looked to the west. At the end of the desolate Gobi Desert, there was a high mountain standing with a snow-capped top, which looked like a pillar of heaven.
"Uncle Wu, do you remember where it was?"
Long Chen's tone was filled with sadness and anger.
Wu Jian looked at the mountain, tears couldn't help falling, and whispered: "How could I forget that one hundred thousand of our Long family troops fought there and died there, and the bones of our brothers are all there!"
That mountain was Bailang Mountain. Long Ye led an army of 100,000 to fight against Xixia and the barbarians, and all of them were killed.
Only Wu Jian and Long Chen escaped.
The past events are still vivid in my mind, the fighting, the fire, the grief and anger...
"All enemies must die!"
Long Chen clenched his fists and said.
Wu Jian raised his head and poured tears back into his eyes, exhaled a hot breath and said, "Yes, all enemies must die!"
Zhang Qian and others came over, and Long Chen stopped the topic.
"Sir, all the houses in the pass are built with cement. There are still many left. Do you want to destroy them?"
The formula of cement has never been disclosed to the outside world and is regarded as a secret of Dazhou, so Zhang Qian asked.
Long Chen thought for a while and said: "Keep it, maybe you can use it in the future."
"The defenses of Jade Buddha Pass have been rebuilt, it's time for us to return to Beijing."
"Old Wu, I plan to let you guard Jade Buddha Pass while the Long Family Army stays here. What do you think?"
Yufo Pass is the front line of the confrontation between the Zhou Dynasty and Xixia Dynasty, and must be guarded by a large army.
The Red Flame Army is gone, and the Long Family Army will take its place.
Wu Jian said: "No problem, sir, don't worry, as long as I am here, the Jade Buddha Pass will be there!"
Wu Jian is an old man of the Long Family Army, and Long Chen can trust him. The Jade Buddha Pass and the 200,000 Long Family Army are all Long Chen's family assets, and they must be handed over to the most trusted person.
After packing his things, Long Chen immediately took Zhang Qian and the others to Xifeng Town to meet up with Bai Tingting, and then rushed to the capital.
It was already winter, and the howling north wind brought heavy snow all over the sky, making it very cold on the road.
Everyone was in a good mood, because they had won a great victory, and several beauties were chatting and laughing along the way.
When they reached Jiangtou Town, two people rushed out from the roadside and blocked Long Chen's way.
