Jiang Chen rubbed the sleeve of his left arm with his right hand, feeling the coldness brought by Dahei's body. Ever since Dahei coiled around his left arm, he had formed this habit unconsciously.
At this time, Jiang Chen was standing in his tent with an embarrassed smile. At this time, there was a person sitting in his seat, it was Yue Qianming who had just arrived in the north. Ignoring Jiang Chen's embarrassed look, he was flipping through the case. There was a book on the table. After the two of them were silent for nearly a quarter of an hour, Jiang Chen saw that the teacher did not come to accuse him, and his tense nerves relaxed a lot.
Seeing that Yue Qianming had no intention of speaking, he had no choice but to ask: "Teacher, you must be very tired after the long journey! Do you want a student to rub your shoulders and back?"
"When did you learn to flatter someone? It seems that this military camp can really change a person, but I am indeed a little tired."
Jiang Chen hurriedly walked behind Yue Qianming, slowly circulated his blood, heated his hands, and then supported Yue Qianming's shoulders and started kneading them. Pretending to be casual, he asked: "Teacher, it's not time for you to patrol the border yet. Why are you here at this time?"
"Did you make any mistake? Are you so afraid of me coming to the North?"
"No, no, I really miss you, teacher, and I'm looking forward to your coming."
"Oh..., is that right? Your mother also already knows the result of your military exercise with the Huben Column ten days ago. You can show off in front of me without thinking about who taught you. It's true."
"Ah! Teacher, you already know? And mother also knows?"
"What are you afraid of if you win? If you lose, you should carefully consider the consequences."
"You're not angry?"
"Why am I angry?"
"After all, the Lidian Bull Legion was trained by you, and it has never been defeated since its formation."
"So what, I have to thank you. These guys have indeed become a bit arrogant in recent years. Now that they have lost to you guys in the competition, let's see how they brag about it in the future. It's good like this now, Shen Concentrate on training and focus on nothing else, this is what an elite corps should be like."
"Teacher, just don't be angry. Then why did you come to the North this time?"
"King Yuanyou of the Xia Geng Kingdom is going to marry Princess Yulan of the Jinhai Kingdom. Your Majesty has sent me as an envoy to the Xia Geng Kingdom."
"Oh, no wonder there are so many officials from the Ministry of Rites in the entourage this time." Jiang Chen responded casually, and then he realized what he was saying and asked in surprise: "Teacher, has the Xia Geng Kingdom officially merged with the Jinhai Kingdom?" Aligned?"
"Well, the covenant has been officially signed."
"So, teacher, you, Uncle Huang, and the others have a plan to deal with it?"
Yue Qianming glanced around casually and knew that Jiang Chen's camp was not far away from where the rest of the Young Eagle Guards were resting. He was afraid that the walls had ears, so he thought for a moment and said: "No, I haven't seen him for more than two months. How can we discuss it when we are here? But even if Jin and Xia form an alliance, it doesn't matter. I, the Zhao Xin clan, will be afraid of them." Yue Qianming saw Jiang Chen deep in thought, fearing that he would have random thoughts, and then said: "Okay! Chen'er. , stop squeezing me. You are not a good person to serve, your bones are all falling apart due to your squeezing."
"Ah! Then I'll be gentle."
"It's okay, let's go for a walk outside. The weather is not bad today."
The sun is shining brightly in the north today, and the sky is clear. This is a rare good weather in the winter in the north. Jiang Chen and Yue Qianming walked side by side on the training ground of the Young Eagle Guards, strolling in silence between them. After walking for a while, Yue Qianming suddenly asked: "Why do you smell like a monster on your body?"
Jiang Chen said "Ah?" in surprise. He didn't expect Yue Qianming's perception to be so sharp. Seeing Yue Qianming's worried look, Jiang Chen had no choice but to roll up his sleeves and expose the big black hair clinging to his left arm. Yue Qianming looked like Dahei, who had a black tattoo clinging tightly to Jiang Chen's arm, was surprised to examine it carefully. He didn't see any difference between the Hantan snake on Jiang Chen's arm and the other Hantan snakes. However, his breath was weak and he was sleeping.
Dahei has been in a deep sleep since he left the cold pool. Jiang Chen tried to wake him up several times, but there was no sign of waking up. If he hadn't sensed Dahei's weak breath, Jiang Chen would have thought that Dahei was still in a deep sleep. It was already dead. Jiang Chen didn't find any good way to wake it up as soon as possible, so he had no choice but to let it hibernate on his arm.
Yue Qianming asked curiously: "This kind of cold pool snake can only be found deep in the mountains in the north. How did you get it? Did you go there secretly?"
"Teacher, I am the kind of undisciplined person!" Jiang Chen then told Yue Qianming about what happened at the bottom of Yuntianya Valley in Ruixiang Mountain, but only hid some things. But he still made the general situation clear to Yue Qianming. Yue Qianming listened. Secretly frightened, Jiang Chen sensed some murderous intent in Yue Qianming's body. He had already guessed Yue Qianming's plan, and advised: "Teacher, you can't kill Dahei's tribe, otherwise this guy will go crazy, I promise Those cold pool snakes don’t wander into the canyons as low as the sky.”
"Okay! But let me remind you that this kind of monster reproduces very quickly, especially the low-level Hantan snake. If it is not controlled, it can easily form a large scale."
"Teacher, don't worry! Dahei is the king of this ethnic group. When he left, he had already given an order to those cold pool snakes, not allowing them to leave the five-mile radius of the cold pool. And when spring starts next year, I will also go and take a look to ensure that I will not disturb the peace of the people in the north."
"That's good!"
The two of them were talking, and Yue Qianming seemed to remember something. He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Jiang Chen and said, "This is a letter that Xueer sent back from the Goddess Sect recently. This letter is specially for you and Ah." Moral."
After Jiang Chen received the letter, he looked surprised and asked happily: "Teacher, will Xueer come back from the Goddess Gate during the Chinese New Year this year?"
"Well, it was mentioned in the letter to me and her mother. What else did she tell you?"
Yue Qianming glanced at the letter in Jiang Chen's hand casually, and felt a little jealous. The letter home written by this girl was only two pages long, but the letter to Jiang Chen and Yu Chide was four or five pages long. Jiang Chen heard that Yue Qianming When asked like this, his face turned a little red, and he quickly said: "It's nothing, just some fun things that happened in the Goddess Sect."
"Teacher, did Aunt Xuanyuan say at that time that you can go home to visit relatives after five years? It has only been three years, how can Xueer come back?"
"Oh! Xue'er said in her letter that after she broke through in seclusion, a group of disciples happened to be undergoing training and begged her master for the opportunity to go home to visit relatives. Didn't she mention it in the letter to you? "
"No, Xue'er is coming back soon. It's great."
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he quickly looked at Yue Qianming and saw that Yue Qianming was also looking at him. He blushed slightly and asked, "Teacher, can Ade and I return to Kyoto during the Chinese New Year this year?"
"I can't decide this. You have to ask your Majesty for instructions. It's not a big problem. But if you leave, what will the Young Eagle Guard do?"
"..."
"When I just came here, I saw that all the young Eagle Guards were a little homesick. You can take this opportunity to ask your Majesty for instructions and see if you can let the entire Young Eagle Guards celebrate the New Year's Day." A trip back to Kyoto at that time can not only relieve the homesickness of these young people, but also stabilize the morale of the troops to prepare for the upcoming war."
"What war? Are you preparing to launch a annexation war against Jin and Xia?"
"What are you shouting about, you brat! I'm afraid that others don't know your Majesty's plan. This time is not a war against Jin and Xia, but I propose to your Majesty that we use the Lidian Ox Legion and the Martial Arts Squad as the main force. You The Young Eagle Guards are helping to suppress the bandits that have become increasingly rampant in the northern border in recent years."
"I thought we were going to take action against those two countries."
"What are you guys so anxious about? For countries like Jin and Xia, you have to figure it out slowly and don't be impatient. Do you think you will be arrogant after you beat the Tiger and Ben Column in a military exercise? You rookies are still young, and you can only really kill them." Only those who have seen blood and have not suffered a mental breakdown can be called true soldiers. That’s why I made this suggestion to your Majesty. I also wanted you to train with the Young Eagle Guards, and by the way, I will test you guys. The true fighting power of the young man and the powerful soldiers are all gained from fighting step by step on the battlefield."
"Students understand."
The bandits Yue Qianming refers to are because since the opening of the Three Kingdoms, business exchanges between the three countries have become increasingly frequent, which has also fostered bandits who make a living by robbing caravans. These bandits usually stay in the military buffer zone of the Three Kingdoms. At the beginning, It's still a small scale, and dozens of gangs are scattered.
In recent years, these bandits entrenched in the northern border have gradually formed a scale through several fierce battles and mergers. Among them, the bandits headed by Lin Tao Village and formed the Nine Gou and Eight Fortresses are the most powerful, and their bandit leader is named Wang Zhengqian.
Not only was this group of bandits the most powerful, but they also acted in a paramilitary style, and their methods were extremely cruel. They not only robbed goods every time, but also never left anyone alive. Among them, the merchants of the Zhao Xin clan suffered the most heavy losses. The Northern Territory Military Division also organized troops to encircle and suppress him many times, but he escaped every time.
After the Northern Territory Military Division reported it to the military headquarters, Yue Qianming had already dispatched a martial arts team to investigate it in the early stage. From the analysis of the obtained intelligence, this group of bandits was not that simple. They were vaguely related to the clan members of the Xia Geng clan. They are implicated, but we still don’t know which family among the top ten powerful families in Xia Geng’s country is behind this group of bandits.
In order to prevent this group of bandits from causing an accident in the upcoming war of annihilation against Xia Geng's country, Zhao Xin's country planned to eradicate this group of bandits, which would not only serve as a training ground for troops, but also test the Xia Geng's country. Domestic reactions.
After Yue Qianming said this to Jiang Chen, he told Jiang Chen some recent events in Kyoto, and when he left, he told him to write a report on all the members of the Young Eagle Guard returning to Beijing to visit relatives as soon as possible and give it to Zhao Lingyun. So that Zhao Lingyun can make some arrangements in advance.
Jiang Chen waited for Yue Qianming to go away before continuing to read the letter written by Yue Wujing to him. The letter not only told some interesting things about the Goddess Sect, but also what happened to Yue Wujing in the recent period. It also mentioned a person's His name is Shao Qingyun. This person has been pestering Yue Wujing, and Yue Wujing also expressed extreme disgust for this person in his letter.
The last page was full of complaints against Jiang Chen, complaining that Jiang Chen had not written to her for such a long time, and asking if he had forgotten her. This was why he was guarding Yue Qianming's blushing and did not dare to read any more. The reason. Jiang Chen put away the last page of letter paper separately, put the other three pieces back into the envelope, and showed it to Yu Chide.
At night, Jiang Chen lay in the military tent, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He put his right hand on his chest, stroking the page of letter hidden in his arms. His thoughts had already flown to the Goddess Gate thousands of miles away, imagining that Yue Wujing was now there. What should I do? I couldn't help but think of Yue Wujing's appearance when he was angry, and a smile appeared at the corner of my mouth. Thinking that I would see Yue Wujing again during the Chinese New Year, the smile at the corner of my mouth became even richer. I also thought about what Yue Wujing mentioned in the letter. The man named Shao Qingyun who arrived was a little angry again. His thoughts were completely out of his control, flying around in random directions.
Feeling sleepy, Jiang Chen turned over and got up from the bed. He sat in front of the desk and wrote: Late at night, the wind blows and the leaves rustle. The morning clouds return to the mountains and the bluebirds return. Thoughts are not seen, dreams meet. Childhood sweethearts are unforgettable, ten miles apart. Farewell feels like yesterday. The best time is approaching and I look forward to her return.
