Three days later, Li Xiao was still lying on the bed, no one came to disturb him, only He Dongxu also came to thank Li Xiao alone, thank you for saving her life, Li Xiao regretted a little, regretted letting go of the three kings of the snake spirit, and remembered Ying'er's oath, how much I hope Ying'er's oath is true, but I am afraid that it is true, I hope that I will change my identity with He Dongxu, but thinking of He Dongxu's cowardice, and I don't want to agree, Li Xiao is full of thoughts, and General Nanjuan pushed the door in, interrupting Li Xiao's thoughts.

"Second brother, are you better?" Nan Juan asked with concern.

Li Xiao nodded and said, "It's not a big deal, big brother bothered." ”

Nan Juan looked at Li Xiao and said, "The love of children should belong to your age, but you have more missions on your shoulders, so you still have to cheer up." ”

Li Xiao sat up, sat cross-legged on the bed, and said to Nan Juan: "Husband, you can afford it, you can put it down, don't worry, big brother, you come to me, there is a war." ”

Nan Juan shook his head and said, "There is no war, but I don't think the past two days have been right. ”

Li Xiao asked curiously, "What's wrong?" Nan Juan sighed and said, "I feel that my limit is approaching, and I will entrust the future with you." ”

Li Xiao was shocked when he heard it and said, "Big brother, why did you say this, are you unwell?"

Nan Juan said: "It's not that I'm unwell, I always feel bad, maybe I'm really old." ”

After speaking, Nan Juan took out a cloth bag in his arms, opened the cloth bag, and inside was a key, which was like jade but not jade, like stone but not stone, which seemed ordinary, but shining.

Li Xiao looked at the key and asked Nan Juan, "What is this?"

Nan Juan shook his head and said, "I don't know what this is, but it's my family heirloom." ”

Li Xiao stared at this thing intently, thought for a long time and said, "I've seen this key, but I can't remember where I've seen it." ”

Nan Juan said: "Oh, is there more than one hand? This thing was secretly passed on to me before my father died, telling me to keep this thing, let me pass it on, my life can be lost, the key cannot be lost, I value this thing more than life, so I give it to you." ”

Li Xiao pushed: "Big brother, by all means, this thing is the heirloom of your Nan family, and there is also Fengguo, dedication to the country, and passed on to me, this is too inappropriate." ”

Nan Juan sighed and said: "My second son, don't entrust a big matter, this thing must have a big secret, I hope you can keep it." ”

Li Xiao wanted to excuse himself, but Nan Juan said: "Don't tell others about this matter, and there is a sentence with this thing that says, 'The golden pot is difficult to fill', you must remember." ”

Li Xiao saw that Nan Juan's attitude was sincere, so he wrapped this thing, put it in his arms, and said to Nan Juan: "Big brother, please rest assured, Li Xiao will definitely value this thing more than life." ”

Nan Juan got up and clenched his fists and said, "There is Brother Lao" and left after speaking.

Nan Juan's sentence "the golden pot is difficult to fill" could not be forgotten in Li Xiao's mind for a long time, and he recalled that there must have been another same key, he must have seen it there, and at this moment, a soldier reported outside the door: "Report, General Li, there is a war pigeon in Dongning." ”

Li Xiao got up, took the war pigeon in the soldier's hand, took the letter inside, and asked the soldier to retreat, Li Xiao opened the letter and was shocked, and said in the letter: "Xiao'er, there is a change in the master's door, the master ordered me and your three senior brothers to return to the division as soon as possible, and quickly take over Dongning and Shujun, Zheng Yunzhongshu." ”

Li Xiao looked at the letter repeatedly, confirming that it was the notes of the senior brother Pojun, Li Xiao quickly changed into his military uniform, and then went to the camp of Nanjuan, thinking about what happened to the master as he walked.

A few drums sounded, the main generals of all the provinces and battalions all came to the camp in Nanjuan, Li Xiao will break the army letter, and the generals of the family said, at this time He Feng said again: "Uncle, since the master has returned to the mountain, it is better for me to return to Dongning with you, I am the guard of Dongning." ”

After listening to this, Nan Juan nodded and said: "That's fine, He Feng will listen to the order again, I will order you to take the soldiers and horses of your headquarters and assist the expeditionary general Li Xiao to garrison Dongning." ”

After He Fengzai listened, he hugged his fists and took the order, Li Xiao said: "Okay, then let's send troops in three ways, teacher and nephew, you take the people and horses of the headquarters to Dongning and settle with my senior brother, Runfeng and Guo Rengui You take 5,000 soldiers and horses and go straight to Shu County to settle with my senior brother, prepare."

After Li Xiao finished speaking, everyone looked at Li Xiao, and Guo Rengui said, "Then where are you going?"

Li Xiao smiled and said, "I'll take three thousand men and horses to attack Tianshui." ”

Nan Juan listened to Li Xiao and said, "Second brother, it's better to be careful. ”

Li Xiao arched his hand and said, "Big brother, little brother has his own measure. The sergeants dispersed.

"Uncle Hui, the soldiers and horses have been ordered, the grain and grass have been loaded, and they are ready to set off at any time" He Feng reported to Li Xiao again, Li Xiao nodded and said, "Raise the army."

At this moment, Ying'er chased out with the package on her back, and He Feng saw Ying'er again and said, "Didn't I arrange for someone to send you Ningde, why are you still here." ”

Ying'er said: "Shibo, I don't want to go back to Ningde yet, I want to follow you." He Feng glanced at Li Xiao again, and saw that Li Xiao didn't say anything, so he didn't say anything, Ying'er secretly glanced at Li Xiao, and saw that Li Xiao was also looking at her, so she blushed and lowered her head, and Li Xiao also looked very embarrassed.

said to He Dongxu: "Dongxu, how about I give you an official position?"

He Dongxu lowered his head and said, "Thank you Uncle Shi for cultivating." ”

Li Xiao pointed to a car pulling war pigeons and said: "You are responsible for the escort of this car, so call the war pigeon escort officer." ”

He Dongxu smiled bitterly and said, "Yes"

The team of people out of Chen You Dongguan, Nan Juan with the heads of the family will see off, just out of Chen Yu not long after, He Xu's escort pigeon car bumped, a cage containing war pigeons fell to the ground, the cage was broken, more than a dozen war pigeons were frightened and flew away, Li Xiao and He Feng rushed over again.

He Fengzai was about to scold, but was stopped by Li Xiao and said: "Dongxu was frightened last time, and he hasn't come to his senses yet, don't blame, don't blame." ”

When He Feng heard Li Xiao say this again, he eased his tone and said, "You waste, don't hurry up and thank Uncle Shi." ”

He Dongxu immediately knelt down and said, "Uncle Xie is not to blame. ”

Li Xiao smiled and helped He Feng up again, Li Xiao smiled in his heart: "This He Dongxu is really a coward, the more timid you are, the better, I am infinitely generous to you, so that Ying'er can see, your little white face is destined to achieve nothing except for being good-looking." After speaking, Li Xiao still had a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, and when he looked up, he found that Ying'er was looking at him.

After the brigade traveled dozens of miles, Li Xiao waved his hand to stop the team, and said to the sergeants: "Camp in place" and then said to Runfeng: "My heavy army of eighty people, you have to manage them well, and you can't treat them badly." ”

Runfeng said: "The general went to attack Tianshui, didn't he take them." ”

Li Xiao smiled and said: "Killing chickens with a knife, the last time I broke the enemy's camp, I sacrificed two, this team will be of great use in the future." ”

Runfeng arched his hand and said, "Listen to the general's arrangement." Li Xiao said to Lu Yongsheng next to him: "Shengzi, you and I will go on the expedition." ”
