Chapter five hundred and eighty fifth: General Long
Long Bing'er couldn't help being startled when she heard this. She turned her head and looked at Xu Qing blankly. What was his name just now?
Then the middle-aged man who got off his horse began to look towards Xu Qing.
Xu Qing realized that he had made a mistake and quickly raised his hands and said: "Are you General Long?"
The middle-aged man looked at Xu Qing, frowned and asked, "Who are you?"
Xu Qing said: "I am Xu Qing."
"Xu Qing?" The middle-aged man read his name again and said in surprise: "Are you the Xu Qing who defeated Zhao in the national competition?"
Xu Qing said humbly: "I'm just not talented at all."
General Long asked: "How come you are with Bing'er?"
Xu Qing said: "Chu is also a state of etiquette. I happen to be here to participate in a martial arts conference to compete for the leadership of the martial arts alliance. Officials from other countries are visiting, so I should give you a gift."
Long Bing'er looked at Xu Qing, then at Long Bing'er, and asked, "Is that so?"
Long Bing'er nodded and said, "That's true."
General Long laughed and said: "It must have been dozens of miles from Liuzhou City to here, right? This kind of hospitality is probably far different from that of Zhao State, which always pays attention to etiquette. It seems that Anding County Uncle and
My little girl’s friendship is quite deep.”
Long Bing'er's face felt a little unnatural and she turned her gaze to one side.
Xu Qing laughed dryly and changed the subject: "I was promoted to county marquis not long ago."
General Long said in surprise: "You can become a marquis at such a young age, and your future may be limitless."
Xu Qing smiled and said: "General Long, you've received the award."
General Long looked at Xu Qing and asked: "I heard that a thunder and fire weapon appeared during the war between Chu and Zhou, and it was also made by Anding County Bo?"
Xu Qing shook his head and said: "It's all the brainstorming of the National Business Council, how can it be the work of one person? General Long has promoted me."
General Long heard Xu Qing's words and said thoughtfully: "I see."
Xu Qing looked at General Long and asked: "I heard that the general has been guarding the western border of Zhao State and never left without permission. Why did he come to Chu State today?"
General Long said: "I happened to be returning to Beijing to report on my duties during this period. I heard that Your Majesty sent Bing'er to Zhao State, so I came over to take her back as soon as possible."
Xu Qing said: "There is a city not far away. It is getting late at this time. Why don't you show your loyalty to the landlord one last time?"
General Long considered it and said: "How embarrassing."
Xu Qing smiled and said: "It should be, it should be, the visitor is a guest, not to mention that the wise king of Chu State admires General Long...ahem...admiration, I have admired him for a long time. In the next generation, the prince will show his friendship as a landlord.
I think the prince will also be very happy."
General Long glanced at Xu Qing and said: "I heard that the Hou Xuefu of Anding County has five chariots and is full of knowledge. I need to think more carefully about the words I use in the future. A slight mistake can lead to a thousand miles."
Xu Qing immediately raised his hands and said: "Yes, yes, what the general taught you must be remembered in the future."
Xu Qing really wanted to say something: He just almost said what was in his heart.
Long Bing'er is so beautiful that the wise king never opened his eyes to see her. General Long has never met him, but he talks about it every chance he gets and never forgets it...
Whenever you have time, tell yourself how noble General Long is, how powerful he is, and how he understands justice...
He has never met!
Even if General Long was really good, he wouldn't be so praised.
This makes it difficult for Xu Qing not to wonder if King Xian has some unknown secrets.
…
General Long said: "I have heard about the wise king of your country for a long time. I have known him for a long time and admire him very much. Unfortunately, I have been guarding the western border all year round and have no chance to see him."
Xu Qing looked at General Long's expression of admiration and fascination, and suddenly felt that maybe the wise king was not the only one who had that little known secret...
Could it be that King Xian and General Long had a secret conspiracy early on?
Huh……
Don't dare to think, don't dare to think...
If I think about it any more, the princess’s head will turn green.
Long Bing'er said: "This place is in a desolate place, so it's better to leave as soon as possible. I'm afraid it will be difficult to make the journey as it gets late."
General Long nodded and said: "Well, Bing'er is right, this is not a place to talk about friendship. It's better to get on the road quickly, find an inn to stay, and continue on the road tomorrow."
Then General Long glanced at Xu Qing and asked doubtfully: "Where is your horse?"
Xu Qing was stunned: "General Long, why are you still swearing?"
General Long had a dark look on his face: "I'm asking about your horse? Why is Bing'er the only one riding a horse? Did the Marquis of Anding County come here after such a long journey?"
When Long Bing'er heard this, her face felt a little unnatural, but at this time she could only give Xu Qing a threatening look.
Xu Qing noticed Long Bing'er's eyes, laughed dryly, and said: "This... I'm practicing Qing Kung recently. I can practice more when I send Miss Long off."
General Long said in surprise: "I didn't expect the Marquis of Anding County to be so diligent, so we shouldn't bother him. Come on, mount your horse."
After General Long got on his horse, Long Binger made no move.
General Long was slightly startled: "Bing'er, why don't you get on your horse?"
Long Bing'er said: "I have been a little slack in my martial arts practice recently, and I also want to brush up on my Qing Kung Fu."
General Long looked at Xu Qing, then at Long Bing'er, and said, "Then let's review together."
After saying that, General Long also got off his horse.
The two horses were led away by General Long's guards first.
Above the pipeline, only three people were left practicing Qing Gong.
In the eyes of passers-by, these three people were all seriously ill...
Xu Qing's inner strength was not as strong as Long Bing'er's, and after persisting for half an hour, his speed slowed down.
The light kung fu practiced by Long Bing'er and General Long was not as good as Xu Qing's, but their internal energy was far stronger than Xu Qing's, and they didn't feel tired at this time.
Long Bing'er turned her head and looked at Xu Qing and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Qing breathed heavily, and from time to time a big bead of sweat fell on his forehead, saying: "I...I...I'm fine, I'm just a little tired."
General Long glanced at him and said: "Although your explosive power is amazing, it is not durable enough. You need to practice more internal strength in the future. No matter how good your Qinggong is without the support of sufficient internal strength, it will be difficult to achieve its glory."
Xu Qing gasped and said: "Long... General Long... isn't half an hour long enough?"
General Long shook his head and said, "What does half an hour mean?"
Xu Qing was out of breath and said: "General Long...how...how long do you usually take?"
General Long's breath was long and steady, and he said unhurriedly: "At least two hours."
Xu Qing gasped: "You...you are so powerful. You will get stronger with time."
General Long glanced at Xu Qing: "If you really can't hold on, forget it. If you don't have the endurance, don't hold on. It won't take a day to freeze three feet. You need to practice more. As your internal strength increases, your level of Qinggong will naturally improve."
Xu Qing managed to muster some energy and said harshly: "No... no need, that's why... I have to practice more... I'm fine... you can only improve by exercising when you are tired, it doesn't matter..."
