Chapter 12 Preparations for the Expedition

As the old saying goes: before the three armies move, the grain and grass go first. This expedition to the Nine Heavens Nova is a rare event for the people of the Cloud Palace, so the Vermilion Bird Palace, which is in charge of the army's food and grass, is like a great enemy, and does not dare to slack off at all.

"Have you heard? This time, the Star Monarchs above the God Rank in the Cloud Palace will all go out with the army. A coolie dressed as a Puren said to another.

"I've heard that! There are still half of the twelve guards of the Cloud Palace!

"But these grains and grass are a little scarce! The palace master also ordered us to speed up the loading of the ship! Looking at this posture, we can finish loading it for most of the day. ”

Another man who was working next to them suddenly raised his head and said to them mysteriously, "You don't know this! Most of the supplies are stored in the adjacent void! The army will be resupplied again when it arrives, and then it will go straight to its destination. ”

"How do you know this?" asked the first man to speak, whispering, and looked around warily.

My sister-in-law was helping out with the kitchen at Yuanjun's little sister recently, and overheard the two of them talking. The man said triumphantly, and he didn't know if it was because he was proud of knowing this unknown secret, or because his sister-in-law was proud of helping Zhuo Yun cook.

Sure enough, the two men next to him also stopped what they were doing, picked up the rags around their necks and wiped the sweat on their faces, and they all gathered around the proud man, and one of them asked enviously: "Then do you know what you are doing with such a big show this time?"

I naturally knew the smug man's face, but he shook his head without saying anything.

This made the two people around him anxious, and they screamed one by one, begging him to tell them the secrets they knew quickly, so that they could show off to others again.

After being flattered by the two, the proud man finally relented: "This time, it's for Miss Zhuo's man's arm." ”

As soon as these words came out, the two people next to them waved their hands and shook their heads in disbelief: "How is it possible! The fleet, and so many Xingjun went out, just to treat the arm of the Lan family's baby?"

The other said, "That's right, besides, that kid from the Lan family has had his arm broken for so long, can he get it back?"

The proud man cast a disdainful glance at the two: "I won't tell you, and you won't believe it." That's all you have to realize, that's all you have to do. No! I won't tell you. ”

After saying this, the proud man got up and continued to carry his goods.

The other two heard his sarcasm, but they stopped doing it, and insisted that he explain it clearly.

The proud man put down the goods in his hand again, and asked the two of them: "Who is the Lan family kid getting along with now?"

"Miss Zhuo Family!"

"That's right! It didn't take long for me to get married. Think about it, can the uncle of the Junshen family be a broken arm?"

"That must not be! It must be a good look, a talent. ”

"It's not that you mean! It is said that the monarch god can reach the sky with his hands and eyes, and his magic power is very big, and it is not impossible to connect the broken arm again. But this battle is a bit bigger, doesn't that mean it's difficult to connect the arm!"

was so circumvented by him, the two men next to him nodded yes.

"Oh! Your sister-in-law is so blessed! I can serve the little lady of the Zhuo family, and your family will not be able to follow the chicken dog to heaven in the future!"

The other also boasted: "That's right! It's already a blessing for our Puren to pass the assessment and enter the Cloud Palace on an errand." Even if we are coolies like us, even the village chief has to come to the entrance of the village to greet us when we return home during spring break every year. Your sister-in-law is now better than the village chief. ”

"What is the village chief! In my opinion, he is even more powerful than the county master. ”

The smug man said "Where!" in his mouth, but his face bloomed with joy.

At this moment, the overseer's scolding came from a distance, and the three of them shrank their necks and carried the goods on the ground to the ship

The smug man moved and muttered: "You are a stunned man of the White Dog Clan, don't look at the person you are shouting in front of me now, and when my Nizi is soaring, you are not even worthy of lifting shoes for me." ”

Qin Ying stood on the platform halfway up the mountainside of Cuiwei Peak, watching the harbor at the foot of the mountain busy in full swing. She turned her head sideways and asked Lin Baidao beside her, "Old Jiao, when will Jialan give birth?"

Lin Bai was dressed in white, his long hair was simply tied into a bun, and a milky white hosta was inserted into the bun. The mountain wind blew his long hair head-on, fluttering like a fairy.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Qin Ying quipped: "I didn't expect that a carefree person like you would become a father." ”

"Don't make me, I'm going to go this time. Lin Bai said suddenly.

Qin Ying turned her head, her eyes widened and said to Lin Bai, "Where did you hear that I arranged you? We have worked together for so many years, you still don't know what kind of person I am?"

Lin Bai saw that Qin Ying was a little annoyed, so he said, "I didn't mean that, I thought you had heard some rumors recently, so you said something like that in front of me." ”

"Lin Bai! We are comrades-in-arms who have shed blood and suffered together, and I will not talk like other villains. I think you should stay this time. ”

Lin Bai was a little surprised: "Really, but some people say that I am too childlike and have a long relationship, and I don't care about the big things of the Cloud Palace for the sake of my own small things." ”

"Whoever dares to say that, I'll tear his mouth apart. Having a baby is a top priority, and you don't care about the nonsense of those young people. ”

Limber nodded, then fell silent.

After a while, Qin Ying deliberately found a topic and said, "Old Jiao, look at those new Dragon Tooth Battleships, they are really tall and mighty! They are bigger and stronger than these bull battleships in front of you. ”

Lin Bai snorted and said, "Recently, Zhuo Hua has broken his heart by taking these five new ships. Tens of thousands of craftsmen worked tirelessly to renovate and barely catch up with this day of land acquisition. ”

If we had such a powerful warship back then, the battle between neighbors would not have been so embarrassing. ”

Lin Bai smiled bitterly and said, "It's a pity that my two brothers are still cold. Forget it, what can I do even if I take it back? The Dragon Palace is now withered like this, and I am responsible. ”

Qin Ying watched as the boatmen on the dock kept loading supplies onto the dinghy like a swarm of ants, and then those dinghy transported the full load of supplies to the huge warships in the harbor.

She patted Lin Bai on the shoulder and comforted him, "It's okay! You take your time in the affairs of the dragon clan! You have a strong foundation, and it is easy to revitalize, you just need to wait a little longer." It's like our White Dog Clan, which has risen in just a thousand years, and although I am the most patriarchal, I am only barely in the stream. ”

Lin Bai sighed: "It's not easy to be a patriarch!" and jumped off the platform with a vertical leap. Two breaths later, the Red Cloud Beast appeared in front of Qin Ying majestically carrying Lin Bai, and the Red Cloud Beast flapped its big wings and blew Qin Yingdi's skirt messy.

"Isn't it majestic?" Lin Bai, who was full of pride, asked Qin Ying with a smile while holding the Mixed Yuan Knife in his arms.

Qin Ying was sorting out the clothes that had been blown up, and glanced at Lin Bai and said, "Are you afraid that someone in this Cloud Palace doesn't know that Yuan Jun has authorized you to ride flying beasts to patrol the border, right?"

Lin Bai laughed and said, "You can envy it!" After speaking, he pressed the head of the Red Cloud Beast, and disappeared into the clouds and mist with a swoop.

"Virtue!" Qin Ying scolded and laughed, really happy for this comrade in her heart.

Qin Ying saw that the last box of baggage had been transported onto the Dragon's Tooth Battleship, so she left the platform and walked through the forest path after descending Cuiwei Peak. Originally, I wanted to go back to the Vermilion Bird Palace directly, but when I walked to the intersection, I thought it would be better to go to the Lingjue Palace.

Zhuo Hua was deducing something in front of the Xuanhuang Mirror, and suddenly realized that there was someone behind him, so he immediately pulled out the Qinghe Sword in his hand, and only after turning around and seeing that it was Qin Ying did he insert the sword back into the scabbard.

"Now it's getting more and more unruly, you can enter when you want, and you don't say hello. Zhuo Hua hung the Qinghe Sword back on the wall.

"I knocked on the door, and you didn't hear it. Qin Ying stuck out her tongue and jumped to the Xuanhuang Mirror with a smile.

"I told you a long time ago, you are now the palace master, why are you still the same virtue as when you were apprenticed to the master? Zhuo Hua said angrily.

Zhuo Hua's eyes swept Qin Ying, she was wearing a lilac full-breasted skirt today, and she was covered with a purple satin dress with filigree and gold edges on the outside, and the waist-length green silk combed a hanging sideburns on her head. The delicate red lips make the skin extraordinarily fair.

"I'm dressed so beautifully today, but I'm going to see your wishful husband?" Zhuo Hua quipped.

Qin Ying sat down at the table with a smile, her slender fingers shook a small porcelain cup on the table, and said casually: "Yes!

Zhuo Hua glared at her and scolded with a smile: "You be careful that Tian Jialan will kill you in the Vermilion Bird Palace with a sword." ”

"Come on, come on! She can't beat me with a big belly!"

Zhuo Hua reached out and slapped the hand that was turning the porcelain cup, and put the porcelain cup that had already been dizzy back into the distance.

"Qin Palace Master, do you have a performance?" Zhuo Hua said.

"There's no one here! Yuan Shang said it yourself! When there is no one, we are masters and apprentices, and when there are people, we are kings and ministers. Qin Ying was a little dissatisfied, and pouted and complained.

"If you don't say anything, I'll ask you out!" Zhuo Hua threatened.

Qin Ying slapped the table angrily, got up and bowed solemnly and said: "Qi Yuan Jun, the heavy loading of grain and grass under the supervision of the Vermilion Bird Palace has been completed, the five dragon tooth battleships are already fully loaded, and the eight bull battleships are still empty for the time being, and they will replenish the supplies after the neighboring realm." ”

Zhuo Hua watched her finish speaking, and just happened to meet Qin Ying, who raised her head, the two looked at each other, and they couldn't hold back their laughter.

"Alright, alright! You just have to get your errand done. Zhuo Hua sat down, took two cups and filled them with water.

Qin Ying also sat down happily, unceremoniously picked up one of the cups and drained it all, then took out a bag from his arms and threw it on the table.

"My Qiankun bag?" Zhuo Hua was a little surprised, "Why is it here?"
