As if sensing Ao Fenggu's strangeness, Ting Mei raised her head, looked at him, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Ao Fenggu gathered his chaotic thoughts, squeezed out a smile, and said, "It's nothing, let's eat." ”

The inn is built near the lake, the scenery is quite good, and it is the traffic center, there are often pedestrians from the south to the north stop to rest, Ao Fenggu and Tingmei found an empty table by the window and sat down, ordered a few exquisite side dishes, and ate slowly.

At the next table is a big-faced man, middle-aged and fat, dressed in brocade clothes and jade robes, he is a wealthy businessman at a glance, and there are two servants standing behind him, with a sword at his waist, Ao Fenggu glanced at it, they are all martial artists in the three-star realm.

This big-faced man can use a three-star warrior as a servant, and he can be regarded as a rich party.

At this time, a tall man came in, looking like a dusty man, and the shopkeeper hurriedly went over to greet him, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this guest officer, there are no more vacant seats in the shop." ”

The tall man was tall, swept away, and the situation in the entire lobby was at a glance, and his eyes fell on the table of the big-faced rich businessman, "You are really blind, isn't there still a vacant seat?"

But the guest had already sat down. "The shopkeeper has one head and two big, he is a small character, where can he afford to offend these rich people?

"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, if this brother doesn't mind, you can come over and share a table. The big-faced rich businessman said with a smile.

The big man walked over, arched his hand at the big-faced rich businessman, sat down unceremoniously, and was about to greet the shopkeeper to order, when the big-faced rich businessman said: "On this day, the south and the north of the sea, sitting at the same table can be regarded as fate, if the brother doesn't mind, I will invite this meal." ”

Saying that he greeted the shopkeeper, he ordered some expensive dishes and good wine, and the big man had a soft mouth and a little more smile on his face.

Ao Fenggu sat aside, picked up the tea bowl and tasted it slowly, and said softly: "When, the four-star martial artist has also become a cabbage on the rotten street, and there are seven of them in this small inn alone, and this big man is actually a five-star realm." ”

Ting Mei said: "I think something happened. ”

After three rounds of drinking, the big man was no longer so restrained, and he talked more.

"This time the Phoenix Flower will be in Fancheng, since my brother is going there, there is still a long way to go, and along the way, you need to be more careful. Dahan said.

The big-faced rich merchant frowned, "Fancheng is an important town in the northwest of our Blue Bird Country, and there are large armies stationed all year round, and along the way, there are sergeants parading every ten miles, so it should be very safe." ”

The big man shook his head, "It's not peaceful, as far as I know, this month alone, hundreds of people have died on this road, and there are many dignitaries and nobles who have disappeared for no reason, and the government and the opposition are shocked." ”

"What's going on?" the big-faced wealthy merchant wondered.

"I don't know. The big man drank a bowl of wine, "The queen of the country was furious, and General Tingwu also began to reorganize the army, and several major sects of our Blue Bird Country also received a mobilization order to assemble, and the destination seemed to be north of Fancheng. ”

"To the north of Fancheng, isn't it the Valley of the Gods? The big-faced rich merchant frowned.

"Yes in the past, but as for the future...... the big man grinned, "When the elite of the three thousand cavalry of General Tingwu's Feiyu Battalion passes, it is difficult to say who will belong there." ”

Ao Fenggu looked at Ting Mei, who looked dazed, obviously she didn't know about it.

The big-faced wealthy merchant was puzzled: "Could it be because in the last competition in the Tingwu General's Mansion, the half-orc prince Hall failed and had a desire for revenge? But it doesn't make sense, for this matter, and the entire Blue Bird Country is the enemy, is his Hall head caught by the door?"

"I don't know. Dahan said, "However, this time, not only our Blue Bird Country, but also the border troops of the Blue Crane Country and the Blue Bird Country are also ready to move. ”

The big-faced rich businessman took a cool breath, "What is this for?"

The big man shrugged his shoulders, didn't speak, and after drinking all the wine in the altar, he stood up, arched his hand at the big-faced rich merchant, and strode out of the inn.

"Let's go, it's time to go. Ao Fenggu said to Ting Mei, settled the food money, and the two took the carriage and left.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when the two returned to General Ao's mansion, it was already the evening of the second day, and when they learned that the young master was back, the big and small stewards and servants in the general's mansion all came out to greet them.

Ao Fenggu got out of the carriage, Ting Mei stood quietly next to him, and the servants and maids all subconsciously looked at her, with curiosity, awe, and kindness in their eyes.

The middle door opened, and General Ao Ding and Mrs. Meng walked out together.

The news of Ao Fenggu's injury in Dabi was already known to the two, and when they saw their son again, Mrs. Meng's tears suddenly slipped out of her eyes, and General Ao Ding coughed and said in a low voice, "Fenggu finally went home for a trip, why are you crying!"

Mrs. Meng wiped her tears and stopped sobbing, "I, I'm happy." ”

Ao Fenggu took Tingmei and stepped forward to greet his parents.

Since the last time I left General Tingwu's mansion, it has been many days, and on General Ao Ding's head, there are more and more gray hairs, and the corners of Mrs. Meng's eyes are wrinkled.

When a family of four walked into the General's Mansion, the big housekeeper came over and whispered to Ting Mei, "Young grandma, bring me something." ”

The title of the young grandmother made Tingmei slightly stunned, her face was slightly red, and she handed over the salute in her hand.

In the evening of the same day, the General's Mansion held a grand banquet, and the representatives of all parties who heard the news gathered together.

When the banquet was over and the guests were sent away, the family of four came to the backyard of the General's Mansion and finally calmed down.

After being busy for most of the day, in fact, the four of them didn't have much to eat, Mrs. Meng went to get home-cooked food, Ting Mei went up to help, and General Ao Ding and Ao Fenggu father and son sat in the courtyard and chatted.

It didn't take long for Ting Mei to bring sobering tea, like a little daughter-in-law, Ao Ding is father looking at his daughter-in-law, the more he looks at it, the more pleasing it is, and his mood is much more comfortable.

Ao Fenggu took a sip of tea and said what he heard on the road, General Ao Ding nodded and said, "This thing has made the half-orcs carry the pot, the terrain over there is treacherous, and it is not suitable for survival, so in the past, there were only a few half-orcs active, and it was not accurate to say that it was the chassis of the half-orcs, but the half-orcs seemed to be a little abnormal." ”

He paused, and then added, "The reason why the army is gathering over there is because in recent times, there have been murders in the vicinity, and even entire villages and towns have been slaughtered, and the murders are constantly spreading around. ”

Ao Fenggu frowned slightly, the half-orcs in the Valley of the Wandering Gods, adding up to only hundreds, are okay to sweep the villages, but if you want to attack the towns of the human race, the strength is simply not enough.

"Who is the one who committed these murders, or what kind of force?" asked Ao Fenggu.

"It's not going to work out yet, but according to the latest news, it should be related to the ghoul clan. General Ao Ding's tone was heavy.

Ao Fenggu punched the table, "It's the ghoul clan again!"

General Ao Ding said: "The armies of the Three Kingdoms are gathering, and the Phoenix Clan has even ordered the various sect forces to send elites to rush over. ”

"In this Phoenix Flower Meeting, the selection of a husband for the middle-grade saintess is secondary, and the most important thing is to discuss the matter of the Dangshen Valley. General Ao Ding looked at his son and said earnestly, "Feng Gu, you have grown up, and you have lost everything for your father's cultivation, and it will not help you much, this time you will go to the Phoenix Flower Club, or the Valley of the Gods, remember to be careful, no matter what happens, put your own life first." ”

Ao Fenggu nodded, "The child knows. ”

"What are you two muttering?" Mrs. Meng came over with exquisite dishes, and Ting Wu leaned over to clean up the table, and her movements became more and more skillful.

There are no servants and maids in this small courtyard, only the four of them, without the rules of the big family, but with more human warmth, like an ordinary family of four.

Although General Ao Ding had no cultivation, he still held the real power of the general, and when the order of the queen of the country came down, he asked one of his lieutenants to rush to Fancheng with 800 cavalry.

Ao Fenggu and Tingmei rested in the General's Mansion for three days, and also set off with the army.
