Chapter 467: Little Ash Delivers a Letter
Chengfeng squinted, laughed out two little tiger teeth, raised his hand and touched the eagle falcon that landed on the edge of the table and pecked at his feathers, and his tone was very affectionate.
"Ash, I'm going to trouble you again."
"Tshh
Chengfeng was not angry, smiling and beckoning gently to the gentle falcon, and his tone was soft, as if he was coaxing a disobedient and ignorant grumpy child.
"Come on, don't lose your temper."
Chengfeng rolled up the letter he had written and stuffed it into a small bamboo tube, and then raised his chin at Xiao Ash.
It's not that he doesn't know that Xiao Ash has expressed his dissatisfaction with his name many times, and it's easy to say anything, but he loses his temper every time he calls him that.
It's really like a tantrum child......
Chengfeng muttered in his heart many times, but he didn't take it to heart.
Although Xiao Ash lost his temper, he didn't dare to really stop sending the letter.
To be honest, after so many years, its days by Chengfeng's side are not short, how can I not know what an indifferent and ruthless heart this person in front of him has under the gentle appearance of a son.
If you want to play in troubled times, then I should be a chess player.
After tying the little bamboo tube carefully and making sure that it would not fall off, Chengfeng patted Xiao Gray's little head and waved his hand to drive it away.
"Let's go, I just arrived at this place today, and I don't have anything to eat! Find it yourself, or you will go over there to find the master, they will go! ”
Xiao Ash was still full of arrogance with his head up, waiting for Chengfeng's feeding, but when he heard such an answer, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed and angry, screamed, and flew to Chengfeng's side, and his strong wings flapped his arm vigorously.
For this, Chengfeng is just a way for Xiao Ash to express his love for himself.
After thinking about it and thinking about it, he felt that he couldn't let people help with things like this, so he slowly took out a dagger, gently slashed his fingertips, and the red blood beads were full of condensation.
"Well, I'll give it to you in advance."
Chengfeng's new body is equivalent to a transformation, all the good things in the past have been retained, but the harmful ones have been eliminated, and the body has returned to the most primitive and pure state, which also provides convenience for him to cultivate the physical body of "absolute power".
Although, the price paid at the beginning was really a bit big.
Therefore, Chengfeng's blood of course also contains the blood of the Ten Thousand Beasts of the Night Family and the characteristics of the laws of space, and it was precisely because of this that Xiao Ash was forcibly tamed in the first place.
And now Ash also has the habit of drinking a little bit of Chengfeng's blood every month, which can make him more robust, stronger and more spiritual.
When Xiao Ash saw this, he didn't lose his temper anymore, and his big eyes were full of joy, and he wanted to go up and peck it.
"Huh! No, no—"
Chengfeng smiled, pressed Xiao Ash's head, lifted its head, opened its mouth and dripped a few drops of blood, and then let it go.
Looking at the sturdy falcon flying away from the blue sky from afar, Chengfeng's fingers trembled slightly, his hands behind his back, his head lowered his eyebrows, and suddenly smiled softly.
He lowered his body and picked up the thing that had just been swept to the ground by Xiao Ash, there was no trace of reluctance in his expression, and his eyes were calm and calm.
There's still a long way to go. The situation is volatile, and who knows what will happen here, far from the center of power?
※※※
Xiao Ash flew for three days before returning to the small Qingshui Village in Qingshui County in the corner of the city, and then flew to Uncle Ming's quaint and atmospheric courtyard.
Landing on a boulder in the doorway, Ash pecked at his feathers as if he were combing his hair, elegant and noble.
"Tsh-"
A sharp howl went straight through the courtyard and spread to the courtyard, echoing for a long time.
In Uncle Ming's courtyard, a lot of gossip arrays were also laid out, some were defensive, some were attacking, and there was this deceptive one.
Since today, not only the neighboring city where Chengfeng has just been captured on the other side is looking at it ambitiously, but Yuanfeng City, which is close to the mountain and the river, is easy to defend and difficult to attack, in addition to the city on the other side of the river, and the city behind the mountain is also making decisions.
It can also be seen from this that the situation has gradually begun to be chaotic, and many people are taking advantage of this opportunity to act.
Whether it is like Chengfeng and them, or simply want to compete for power, there is a fight, and there must be a war. And at this time, Yuanfeng City, which is a weak and mixed in the middle, has become a piece of fragrant bait, and those who want to make contributions and seize power with iron and blood will inevitably take the opportunity to attack.
And Qingshui County is located on this side of the mountain, facing the army on the other side of the mountain, waiting for an opportunity to move.
Since today, there have been spies and other characters who have begun to move, and they have come over the mountain to see the situation, and they are also planning to start from the edge first, taking advantage of the battle between Yuanfeng City and the city on the other side of the river to lose both sides, killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, and taking the land on the edge to occupy it.
Their city is no better than the other one! People are separated by a river, although it is inconvenient, but in the end, there can still be a water army or something like fighting on the river, or crossing the river to fight, at most it will cost more troops, but it will not be worse than Yuanfeng City, which has long been dead and declining, right?
However, on their side, it is separated by a mountain, as soon as they come up, as long as there is the army of Yuanfeng City staring, a stone will go down and smash your head and bleed, and you have to roll down the mountain to break your bones!
Therefore, they have not dared to make a move easily, and if they do, they have to quickly seize the strategic command area here, and there is a place for their own army.
Now that they are starting to move, such as Qingshui County, these small counties and villages on the edge are all in danger, and they have to be careful when they go out every day to see if they will bump into the "nobles" and be stabbed down!
When the time comes, there will be no place to cry! This is even more unjust than committing Tai Sui and being wrongfully killed!
It's not that no one has reported to the imperial court, and it has been reported to the central government, it's just that this procedure has gone up layer by layer, and every time it goes to the central government, hasn't it been ten days and a half a month since the news came out?
If there are people who don't care, don't know the seriousness of the matter, and think that it's not a big deal to worry about the corner, and then they will press you and not report it, then where will you cry? After all, how do people know if someone will come to the door at this time?
So with all kinds of factors and a little more delay, it will have to take a month for the court to know, and in such a long time, what can the spies and soldiers do when they come up? Slaughter the city first, of course!
Kill the original indigenous population, and then let their own people have a place to live in. Otherwise, they will give the original indigenous population to slaves, help their own people and horses grow vegetables or something, and feed the enemy.
Is there something to be humiliated? That's just a dead end, even if there are more people who spare their lives.
Those who survived did not end well, and during the war years, they fell into the hands of the enemy, and women became prostitutes, and men could only be used as laborers.
In short, it's all the work of being a cow and a horse, and if someone slaps you, you have to happily praise them for beating them well, and stretch out the other side of your face.
Is this ironic, you say?
Again, even if the central government knows the news, ask for verification, send the army over to take a look first, how much time will it take to come and go? At that time, the daylilies were cold! People have already marched into the army in a big way!
Some people are clever, or should they say that they are grass on the wall, groveling to the enemy in order to survive, betraying and bullying their compatriots, becoming the enemy's executioner, waving knives at their compatriots, and personally sending the former people to a dead end.
It may be a good way to live, but it's only a little better. One must build on a firm foundation? Without a backer, you ended up in the hands of the enemy, what good end can you have? It's just "one glory and one loss".
So at this time, everyone can only rely on their own abilities to save their lives, Qingshui Village has also done all kinds of preventive work, and Uncle Ming has personally laid out the formation for the big guys.
If it weren't for Uncle Ming, who were not simple outsiders at the beginning, and a few Chengfeng who were thinking about it outside, and always helping to give enough materials, I'm afraid that this side of Qingshui Village would not be good!
You know, there are a lot of other places that have fallen, and many of them have been occupied by the enemy army on the other side of the mountain, and this phenomenon is still in the continuous collapse, and even the county order and the county order dare not say that the news will be transmitted again. No more!
Therefore, everyone doesn't even know where the letter has reached the center or not. Even if you want to urge to confirm the situation, it's not sent!
Therefore, Xiao Ash will not casually trespass, and understands the seriousness of the matter, just standing in an inconsequential place, waiting for Uncle Ming to come to get the letter.
What are you afraid of? It's not that the bad formation hurts me, but that someone sees it at this time! Is that still there? Who doesn't know how to go? If you deduce and deduce well, Shimizu Village will not be guaranteed!
Don't dare to say anything else, there will be talents in every place, and there must be people in neighboring cities!
So things have to be thought through.
Hearing the scream of Xiao Ash, after a while, someone "crunched" and opened the door valve, first poked his head out to take a look, and then carefully opened a little crack in the door, just enough for Uncle Ming to come out.
After so many years, Uncle Ming's sideburns have more gray hair, and the whole person looks even older, drooping his eyelids, but his breath seems to be more and more long and restrained.
Xiao Ash elegantly stretched his wings, flapped and flew, very noble and circled twice above Uncle Ming's head, grabbed the small bamboo tube on his paws, let it fall down, and flew to the forest behind without looking back to forage for food.
Uncle Ming shook his face twice, caught the small bamboo tube, turned around, and staggered step by step to the door, and the clever little boy hurriedly closed the door and set the door valve.
When he arrived at the house, he lit a candle, and Uncle Ming looked at Chengfeng's letter carefully with cloudy old eyes by the candlelight, and his rough and withered fingers rubbed and swiped it.
Suddenly, Uncle Ming's cloudy eyes bloomed with a gleam.
Chengfeng didn't write much in the letter, he roughly explained the progress on his side, and then briefly said what everyone's situation was, and finally greeted the fathers and villagers on this side of Qingshui Village, Uncle Ming, Uncle Yuan, Aunt Mo, and a few of them.
At such a cursory glance, there doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary, it's probably just an ordinary letter from home or something, reporting safety or something.
But no matter what Uncle Ming said, he is also an old and refined character, and he is clear about the intention to start the real action vaguely revealed in Chengfeng's letters, and the meaning of starting from that new city is clear.
It's okay now, I've waited so long, five or six years have passed, and the original eleven-year-old boys have grown into sixteen or seventeen-year-old heroic men, and these old people can't survive a few bones! Finally, things are about to get started......
Uncle Ming slowly straightened his waist, and gradually a magnificent vigorous aura flowed out of his body, which was a kind of ambition and heroism, as if he was still in the prime of life.
But soon, everything seemed to be exhausted again, Uncle Ming gradually reined in the grandeur of his body, staggered his steps, moved slightly, slowly spread out the paper on the table, dotted ink, and slowly wrote one stroke at a time, not in a hurry.
If you hadn't seen his brilliance, I'm afraid everyone would only think that this was a calm old man with a weak body.
But it's not.
After writing the letter, Uncle Ming took a stone and pressed it to dry on its own, and then ordered someone to prepare a few pieces of meat, and the prepared reward was to reward the "tiring Ash".
As for the little ash who has just gone to forage for food? It's not a good situation right now!
Anyway, Xiao Ash originally wanted to scare and scare the food as before, and then obediently let himself have a full meal.
But everything is just a "I didn't expect"!
It's just that I just entered the forest, and I haven't had time to howl majestically, so that the food people know that the uncle is back, but they are stunned by the two stones "bang".
Although Xiao Ash's instinct is good, he reacted in time to dodge, but he didn't want to think about it-
How long has he not been provoked?! Someone would dare to make a move on it?!
Ash is angry, and the consequences are severe.
It screamed, using its incredible speed, and hovered through the woods.
There were a few soldiers in military uniforms looking up below, and there was an expressionless stare on one side, who didn't seem to be moving, but they were in control of the overall situation, always paying attention to Xiao Ash's movements.
And the others also had a serious expression on their faces, giving orders to a few who looked like their minions, and when they saw someone attacking Xiao Gray, there seemed to be a little anger in their eyes, but they were all indifferent.
As for the guy who was bold enough to make a move on Xiao Ash, he didn't look like a hippie smile, and he didn't take Xiao Ash in his eyes like a beast all the time, and he was contemptuous and indifferent, as if what he did just now was just a whim.
Although Xiao Ash is annoyed, it is still a livestock after all, and it is also self-aware, knowing that there is no way to fight against humans, ordinary people are okay, as for soldiers with knives and guns?
Even if it has been nourished by the blood of ten thousand beasts, where is it so reflected?
