Xu Maogong hurried back home, and everyone gathered around him.
Also walking in with him were two female generals, Hua Youlan and Hu Jinchan. Both of them were in military uniforms. Hua Youlan was wearing yellow armor, while Hu Jinchan was wearing green.
"Sister Tianjiao, I've always wanted to see you..." Several women gathered around, chattering for a while.
"Something bad happened. General Luo accompanied King Qi to rescue Zijin Pass. Young hero, what you were worried about has happened." Xu Maogong looked solemn.
"General Xu, what's going on? Please tell us in detail."
Xu Maogong then told the story of General Luo Cheng's expedition with the King of Qi, and analyzed that Luo Cheng's trip might be dangerous, and if Luo Cheng was waiting under the King of Qi's tent, Li Yuanji would definitely frame him, or even find an excuse to kill him at will.
After hearing what Xu Maogong said, everyone fell into silence, especially Hua Youlan and Hu Jinchan, who looked even more anxious and worried.
However, a moment later, Yuan Ziyan said something that was even more nerve-wracking. "What the general said is by no means alarmist. I looked at the sky last night and saw that the stars were dim. The battle ahead was unfavorable, and there were also meteorites appearing. I am afraid that
The general is in danger!"
"General Xu, you usually have the most tricks, so you must find a way to save my general!" Hua Youlan could no longer hold her breath.
"General Hua, don't worry. Brother Luo Xian is aloof and arrogant, and there are no other brothers accompanying him this time. What I am most worried about is that if King Qi harms him, there will be no one to help him."
Xu Maogong turned his head to Cheng Yu, "So I would like to ask Mr. Cheng to do some hard work and secretly help General Luo escape this disaster."
Everyone looked at Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu thought to himself, I came here for this very reason, and I should go all out to return as soon as possible.
He clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, everyone, I will do my best to protect General Luo Cheng's safety. I just have one thing to ask of you." He turned his head to Song Tianjiao.
"Leave your sister to us, young hero, go with peace of mind!" Yuan Ziyan understood Cheng Yu's intentions and assured her.
"Brother He, sister-in-law, Cheng Yu implores you to stay as well. With you here, I feel more at ease!" Cheng Yu gave another gift to He and his wife, entrusting him again and again.
He Zhongliang and his wife agreed.
"Ms., please take care of yourself, I'll wait for you to come back!" Song Tianjiao actually felt like she was about to leave.
Cheng Yu turned over and mounted Xu Maogong's fast horse. Hua Youlan and Hu Jinchan, two female generals, insisted on going together. They came on horseback.
A group of three riders rode away from the dust.
In Cheng Yu's hand, she tightly held the requiem lock that Xu Maogong gave her outside the gate. She could still receive a message from Xu Maogong: "Young hero, this is the requiem lock. You must give it to General Luo and wear it with you."
It wasn't until the backs of the three people could no longer be seen that the remaining people turned around and entered the house.
"General, what do you think of this trip?" Yuan Ziyan broke the silence.
"I believe that my husband and General Luo will return safely." Song Tianjiao rushed to answer. Ever since they met, Cheng Yu, this junior brother, has not given her too many surprises?
"Everything in the world is unpredictable. It all depends on chance. I, alas!" Xu Maogong expressed his thoughts, but hesitated, and finally let out a long sigh and went into the room.
I secretly blame Li Jinxian in my heart, Master, if you don’t practice well on your own, why are you coveting worldly things?
Cheng Yu and the others galloped forward.
On the second day, he caught up with the army in front. Behind the sergeants, Cheng Yu discovered a person, who turned out to be Mr. An.
Whenever he rested along the way, Mr. An would set up a divination stall, and there would always be soldiers coming to divine the good or bad luck of the battle.
Mr. An is very dedicated and treats every customer carefully and promises not to give away money. After the war, after verification, everyone will pay again.
"Mr. An is very clever. In my two battles, he gave me guidance and saved the day." A sergeant was familiar with him and praised him vigorously. He advertised for Mr. An for free.
"You can't be a liar! I never believe this." There are also people who have a strong awareness of fraud prevention and insist on their own opinions.
But as soon as he raised the question, he was criticized.
"Go, what did they lie to you for? Haven't you heard that you are not allowed to give up money and pay after the war? Is there anything more honest in doing business than this?"
"Yes, I'm going to ask, life is more important than money."
"I'll ask too!" There are still more people who know better.
For a time, there was an endless stream in front of the hexagram stall, and people asking for hexagrams were rubbing shoulders, making it very lively.
"Ji, make sure to drink more water these days and don't quarrel with others."
"Unfortunate, I will give you a talisman. Keep it close to your body. It can turn evil into good luck and keep you safe. Be careful to drink more water."
This Mr. An is methodical, busy and not chaotic. He sends one person away and another one comes.
"Mr. An, business is good!"
"Who are you? It's you! I remembered, you are wearing..." Mr. An quickly sorted out his memory and pointed at Cheng Yu.
"Sir, you still remember me. I also looked for him later, but unfortunately I couldn't find him after three years of searching. Today I met you." Cheng Yu interrupted him and told him about his deliberate search.
"What are you doing with me? Do you still want to destroy my Gua stall?" Thinking of the scene back then, Mr. An was still angry and glanced at Hua Youlan and Hu Jinchan behind Cheng Yu.
"It's been replaced! The little brother is really capable!"
"What happened last time was my fault. I would like to apologize to you sir. Please don't be angry again!" Cheng Yu clasped his fists and saluted, sincerely apologizing. Seeing that his husband was silent, he continued, "I want to ask you this question again this time."
One hexagram, this is hexagram gold."
Cheng Yu took out a piece of silver and put it respectfully on the table.
"You're welcome, little brother. What do you want to ask about?" Seeing Qian, Mr. An regained his smile.
"Sir, do you know General Luo Cheng? Please give General Luo a divination to ask about good or bad luck." Cheng Yu said directly, while the two women behind him stared nervously at the fortune teller.
"General Luo, who are you?" Mr. An was stunned when he heard Luo Cheng's name.
"I am his friend, and these two are General Luo's wives." Cheng Yu did not hide anything.
"Please take a step to speak." Mr. An put away the hexagram booth, with a solemn look on his face, and led the three of them to a secluded place.
This Mr. An, named An Tianze, is Yuan Tiangang's junior disciple. He is usually easy-going and good-natured. He left his master early and wandered around the world.
"Sir, two madams." Mr. An bowed and saluted before continuing, "The three of you asked about General Luo Cheng, but I can't speak too clearly for fear of revealing the secret."
"Sir, please tell me as much as you can, in as much detail as possible."
He learned from An Tianze that he had met Li Jinxian in Chang'an a few days ago. The two met during their practice and were old acquaintances. Li Jinxian told him that Luo Chengnai was from the lower realm of the White Tiger Star.
When he came to this world, he did many inappropriate things and shortened his life span. His life span was 23 years old. I think this year will be the final year of General Luo Cheng.
After saying this, An Tianze added, "Based on my understanding of Li Jinxian, there is probably a human element involved in this matter."
"Sir, please clarify, what do you mean by man-made component?" Cheng Yu was confused. The two female generals were also confused as he was. The three of them looked at Mr. An blankly, waiting for explanation.
"You three don't know, but Li Jinxian and I are in the same industry. Everyone in the industry has heard about his style of doing things for a long time. In order to ensure accuracy and credibility, this person often uses some human factors to interfere and promote the results."
"To put it more clearly, if Li Jinxian had calculated for General Luo that he was about to die, he would have taken measures to frame General Luo."
"What's more, I heard that someone once saw him and King Qi together. Now, General Luo is listening to orders under King Qi, so he must be on guard." Finally, An Tianze reminded him that it was Luo Cheng who came to inquire.
The general's wife and friend also performed their duties well.
"So that's it. This Li Jinxian is really hateful. If I see him one day, I will kill him!" Hu Jinchan said bitterly through gritted teeth.
"Sir, can you personally predict the situation for General Luo?" Cheng Yu returned the topic to the beginning.
"This-----, I'm afraid it's inappropriate!" An Tianze hesitated.
"What's wrong? Xu Maogong and Li Jinxian have calculated General Luo Cheng's lifespan, but they have different results. Don't you want to calculate and see which one is more accurate and effective?" Cheng Yu said and handed over another hand.
A bigger ingot of silver.
The most important thing is that Cheng Yu really wants to hear Mr. An's calculations.
Seeing the silver, An Tianze smiled even brighter, took it with both hands, and said repeatedly: "Young Master is so polite that I'm embarrassed, so whatever, I'll make an exception for General Luo."
"Originally, according to the rules in our industry, it is inconvenient for others to take over other people's work. If the calculation results are different, one person's name will be ruined."
Mr. An explained to himself, then counted on his fingers, and muttered something: "The white tiger in the palace will bring disaster, everything will be fierce, so you need to be patient."
"Speaking of patience, given General Luo Cheng's character, it is extremely difficult to achieve..., no, that's bad! Hey! What does this mean?"
An Tianze frowned for a while and was surprised for a while. The uncertain changes made Hua Youlan and Hu Jinchan even more nervous. (To be continued)
