Jiang Chen rubbed the sleeve of his left arm with his right hand, feeling the coldness brought by Da Hei's body, since Da Hei coiled around his left arm, he had unconsciously formed such a habit.

At this time, Jiang Chen was standing in his tent, with an embarrassed smile on his face. 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 casually flipping through a book on the desk. After the two were silent like this for nearly a quarter of an hour, Jiang Chen saw that the teacher did not come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, and his tense nerves relaxed a lot.

Seeing that Yue Qianming didn't mean to speak, he had to ask first: "Teacher, you must be very tired from the long journey, do you want the students to rub your shoulders and back?"

"When did you kid learn to pat on the back?, it seems that this barracks can indeed change a person, but I'm a little tired. ”

Jiang Chen hurriedly walked behind Yue Qianming, slowly activated his blood qi, and heated his hands before he held Yue Qianming's shoulders and kneaded them. Pretending to be casual, he asked, "Teacher, it's not time for you to patrol the border, why did you come here at this time?"

"Did you make a mistake, boy, so afraid that I would come to the North?"

"No, no, I miss you very much, so I look forward to you coming. ”

"Oh...... is it? Your mother already knew the result of your battle with the Tiger Column ten days ago, and she showed it off in front of me, and she didn't want to think about who taught it, really. ”

"Ah, teacher, you already know? And my mother knows?"

"What are you afraid of if you win, if you lose, you should weigh the consequences. ”

"You're not angry?"

"What am I angry about?"

"After all, the Electrifying Ox Legion was trained by you, and it has never been defeated since its formation. ”

"So what, I have to thank you. These guys have really become a bit of a no-brainer in recent years. Now that you lose to your group of dolls, see how they will brag in the future, it's good to be like this now, calm down and train wholeheartedly, and have nothing to lose, this is what an elite corps should look like. ”

"Teacher, it's good that you're not angry, so why did you come to the north this time?"

"Then King Yuanyou of the Xia Geng clan is going to marry Princess Yulan of the Jinhai clan, and the king sent me as an envoy to the Xia Geng clan. ”

"Oh, no wonder there are so many officials from the Ministry of Rites in the entourage this time. Jiang Chen replied casually, and then reacted and asked in surprise: "Teacher, has the Xia Geng clan officially formed an alliance with the Jinhai clan?"

"Well, the covenant has been officially signed. ”

"Then teacher, you and the imperial uncle have a way to deal with it?"

Yue Qianming glanced at it casually, knowing that Jiang Chen's camp was not far from the rest of the Eagle Guards' resting place, he was afraid that the wall would have ears, so he thought for a while before saying, "No, I haven't seen you for more than two months, how can I discuss?" But even if the Jin and Xia countries form an alliance, I, the Zhao Xin Clan, are afraid of them. Yue Qianming saw that Jiang Chen was deep in thought, afraid that he would be thinking nonsense, and then said, "Okay! Chen'er, don't pinch it." You kid is not a servant, and your bones are all broken apart by you. ”

"Ahh ”

"It's okay, let's go for a walk outside, the weather is not bad today. ”

Today's sunny and sunny sky in the north is a rare good weather in the north in winter. Jiang Chen and Yue Qianming walked side by side on the training ground of the Eagle Guard, and after walking in such silence for a while, Yue Qianming suddenly asked, "How can you have the smell of demon beasts?"

Jiang Chen let out a surprised "Ah?", he didn't expect Yue Qianming's perception to be so keen. Seeing Yue Qianming's worried look, Jiang Chen had no choice but to roll up his sleeves and expose the big black that was clinging to his left arm. Yue Qianming looked at Da Hei, who was clinging to Jiang Chen's arm like a black tattoo, and explored it carefully in surprise, not seeing any difference between the Hantan snake on Jiang Chen's arm and other Hantan snakes, but his breath was faint and he was sleeping.

Ever since he left the big black in Hantan, he has been falling into a deep sleep. Jiang Chen tried to summon it a few times, but there was no sign of awakening, if it wasn't for the faint aura coming from Da Hei, Jiang Chen would have thought that Da Hei was dead. Jiang Chen didn't find any good way to wake it up as soon as possible, so he had to let it hibernate on his arm.

Yue Qianming asked curiously, "This kind of Hantan snake only exists in the depths of the mountains in the northern realm, how did you get it? Have you been there secretly?"

"Teacher, I'm the kind of person who doesn't abide by discipline!" Jiang Chen then told Yue Qianming about what happened to Ruixiang Mountain at the bottom of the Yuntianya Valley, but he just hid some things. But the general situation was still made clear to Yue Qianming. Yue Qianming was secretly frightened when he heard this, Jiang Chen sensed that Yue Qianming had a little murderous intent on his body, and he had already guessed Yue Qianming's plan, and persuaded: "Teacher, you can't kill the big black clan, otherwise this guy will go crazy, I guarantee that those Hantan snakes will not be in the canyon of the clouds." ”

"Okay, but let me remind you that this kind of demon beast reproduces very quickly, especially the low-level Hantan snake, if it is not controlled, it can easily form a scale. ”

"Teacher, don't worry! Da Hei is the king of this race, and when he left, he had already given an order to those Hantan snakes not to leave the land within a radius of five miles. And at the beginning of spring next year, I will also go to see it, and make sure that it will not disturb the peace of the people in the north. ”

"That's good!"

As the two were talking, Yue Qianming seemed to think of something, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Jiang Chen and said, "This is a letter sent back by Xue'er from the Goddess Gate recently, and this one is dedicated to you and Ade. ”

After Jiang Chen took the letter, he looked surprised and asked happily, "Teacher, will Xue'er come back from the Goddess Gate during the Chinese New Year this year?"

"Well, it was also mentioned in the letter to me and her mother, what else did she say to you?"

Yue Qianming's eyes casually glanced at the letter in Jiang Chen's hand, and he was a little jealous in his heart, the letter written by this girl was only two pages, but the letter written to Jiang Chen and Wei Chide was four or five pages. Jiang Chen's face was slightly red when he heard Yue Qianming ask like this, and he hurriedly said, "It's nothing, it's just some idle things that happened in the Goddess Gate." ”

"Teacher, Aunt Xuanyuan said at the time that she could only go home to visit her relatives after five years? It's only been three years, how can Xue'er come back?"

"Oh! Xue'er said in the letter that after she broke through the retreat, a group of disciples happened to be in the time of training, and begged her master for the opportunity to go home to visit her relatives. Didn't you mention it in the letter to you?"

"No, Cher is coming back, it's good. ”

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he hurriedly looked at Yue Qianming and saw that Yue Qianming was also looking at him. With a slight red face, he asked, "Teacher, can Ade and I go back to Kyoto during the New Year this year?"

"I can't be the master of this, you have to ask the king for instructions, I don't think it's a big problem. But you're gone, what should the Eagle Guard do?"

“......”

"When I first came over, I saw that the young men of your Eagle Guard were more or less homesick. You should take this opportunity to ask the king for instructions to see if you can let the entire Eagle Guard return to Kyoto during the New Year's Festival, so as to relieve the homesickness of these young people, and stabilize the morale of the army so that they can deal with the upcoming war. ”

"What kind of war? Are you preparing to launch a war of annexation between Jin and Xia?"

"What are you shouting at, stinky boy, for fear that others will not know your plan. This time it is not a war against Jin and Xia, but I propose to the king that the Lidian Ox Legion and the Wuduan Squad be the main force, and you Eagle Guards will assist you to encircle and suppress the bandits that have become increasingly rampant in the north in recent years. ”

"I thought I was going to do something to those two countries. ”

"What are you in a hurry about, for countries like Jin and Xia, you must think slowly, not be impatient. You think that if you win the Tiger Column in a military exercise, you will not be able to die. You rookies are still tender, and only those who have really killed people and seen blood and have not had a mental breakdown can be called real soldiers. That's why I made such a suggestion to the king, and it also meant that you should take the Eagle Guard to train the soldiers, and by the way, test the real combat power of you teenagers, the soldiers are all fighting step by step from the battlefield. ”

"Students understand. ”

The bandits that Yue Qianming mentioned are that since the opening of the Three Kingdoms Arena, the trade exchanges between the three countries have become more and more frequent, and they have also nourished bandits who make a living by robbing caravans. These bandits were usually entrenched in the military buffer zone of the three countries, and they were still small in scale at first, and dozens of gangs were scattered.

In recent years, these bandits entrenched in the north have gradually formed a scale through several firefights and mergers, among which the bandits led by Lin Taozhai to form nine ditches and eight forts are the most powerful, and their bandit leader is named Wang Zhengqian.

This gang of bandits is not only the most powerful, but also has a paramilitary style, and its methods are also extremely cruel, not only robbing goods every time, but never leaving a living mouth. Among them, the merchants of Zhao Xin's country suffered the heaviest losses, and the Northern Military Division also organized troops to encircle and suppress them many times, but they all escaped.

After the Northern Military Division reported to the Military Department, Yue Qianming had already sent a military team to investigate it in the early stage. From the analysis of the information obtained, this gang of bandits is not so simple, and it is vaguely involved with the gate valve of the Xia Geng clan, but I don't know that the family of the top ten gate valve families in the Xia Geng clan is behind the support of this gang of bandits.

In order to prevent this gang of bandits from having an accident in the upcoming war of annihilation against the Xia Geng clan, the Zhao Xin clan plans to eradicate this gang of bandits with a heavy hand, which can not only play a role in training troops, but also test the internal reaction of the Xia Geng clan.

After Yue Qianming and Jiang Chen finished talking about this, they told Jiang Chen about some things that had happened in Kyoto recently, and when they left, they told him to write an excerpt to Zhao Lingyun as soon as possible to write an excerpt of the report of all the members of the Eagle Guard returning to Beijing to visit relatives, so that Zhao Lingyun could make some arrangements in advance.

Jiang Chen waited for Yue Qianming to go away before continuing to look at the letter written by Yue Wujing to him, which not only told some interesting stories about the Goddess Sect, but also what happened to Yue Wujing in the recent past, which also mentioned that a person's name was Shao Qingyun, who had been pestering Yue Wujing, and Yue Wujing also showed extreme disgust for this person in the letter.

The last page is full of resentment against Jiang Chen, complaining that Jiang Chen has not written to her for so long, and asking if he has forgotten her. This is also the reason why he guarded Yue Qianming's blushing face and didn't dare to look any further. Jiang Chen put away the last page of the letter paper separately, put the other three back into the envelope, and took them to Wei Chide to see.

At night, Jiang Chen lay in the military tent and couldn't fall asleep, his right hand was on his chest, stroking the page of letter hidden in his arms, his thoughts had already drifted to the goddess door thousands of miles away, imagining what Yue Wujing was doing now. I couldn't help but think of Yue Wujing's appearance when she was angry, and a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth. Thinking that he would be able to see Yue Wujing again during the New Year's Festival soon, the smile on the corner of his mouth became even stronger. Thinking of the person named Shao Qingyun mentioned in Yue Wujing's letter, he was a little angry. His thoughts were completely out of his control, and they were flying wildly.

Jiang Chen, who was really sleepless, turned over and got up from the bed, sat down on the table and wrote: The wind rises and falls in the middle of the night, and the clouds return to the mountains and the blue birds. Thoughts do not see, dreams meet. Childhood sweethearts are unforgettable, and the ten-mile farewell is like yesterday. The best time is near, and I look forward to returning.
