Volume 2 The White Horse Enters the Reckless Sky Chapter 58 When I said goodbye, the old man was gone
Dean Ren Yuxin left Yingtiancheng to go to Xianyang to ask Emperor Qin for his crimes, and now he finally brought back Emperor Qin's reply, but after His Majesty the Emperor read the long letter covered with the jade seal of Qin, there was no joy on his face.
The letter was full of thousands of words, but in the final analysis, it was always just one meaning: I don't know, I don't know, Hu Sen and Jiang Shujie never came back after they left the Qin State, Chen Shizhen is still in retreat and doesn't know about it, Master Yang Xiudao's soul has returned to the sea of stars, we are also sad and sorry for it, we can fully understand Your Majesty the Emperor of Chu, I wish you to arrest Hu Sen and Jiang Shujie as soon as possible, if there is any need, my Qin State will do our best to help.
His Majesty the Emperor angrily threw the letter directly on the ground, but there was nothing to be done, Qin Guo obviously did not want to take this matter on his own, and he couldn't find anything wrong with the words in Qin Huang's letter, the matter of Qingyang Palace was not something that he could interfere with as a secular emperor, Chen Zizhen has been in retreat, Qin Huang has already given enough steps, and if he doesn't go down the steps, I am afraid that in the end, the diplomatic relations between the two countries will also be greatly affected.
Everyone knows in their hearts who the culprit of this matter is, with the protection of Wang Chenzhen, Hu Sen and Jiang Shujie are most likely enjoying their lives on the mountain of retreat at the moment, if Emperor Chu asks Qin Guo for this, then all the surrounding Qin Yue and Western Jin will be offended, I am afraid that there are a few more characters like Dean Hu, and in the end they will have to go around without eating.
For more than 40 years, His Majesty the Emperor has always wanted to use his reign for the next generation of martial arts, and there has never been a moment when he was so eager to rejuvenate the army.
Between countries, after all, we still have to rely on hard power to speak. His Majesty the Emperor wants to avenge the National Teacher, so he has to deal with the Yue Kingdom and the Western Jin Dynasty, and there must be a strong enough cultivator to kill the Hidden World Mountain, and it is not easy to kill Hu Sen of the Tianshu Realm and Jiang Shujie, the head of the Adjudication Division, who is also the Heavenly Realm, from the hands of the old thief Wang Chen.
......
......
Compared with the high spirits when they set off, everyone seemed a little silent on the way to the army.
Those brothers who died on the battlefield, because Mangcang Mountain was too far away from Chu State, and when Dean Hu fought with Wang Chenzhen and Elder Chen Xingguang, the torrential rain and torrent caused by it had soaked the corpses on the battlefield for a long time, so in order to prevent the corpses from rotting on the road, the general had to order the generals below to count the list of fallen generals, and then bury the corpses on the spot.
On the battlefield, this is the case, the script of the horse leather shroud is already very lucky, more after the battle is killed, the corpse rots on the battlefield and becomes the nourishment of the earth, or becomes the food that birds and beasts compete for, no one knows how they were alive and what their families were. In this way, the hopes of families were annihilated in the long river of history.
Maybe being able to settle in the ground, even in a foreign country, is already their best ending.
The general sat on the horse, the Jueying who had been with him for many years had been killed by Wang Chen Zhenren on the battlefield, and the deputy general prepared a black horse for him that looked similar to the Jueying, and also sewed a battle armor that was the same as the general's before, but it could not make the general's heart feel any relief.
The general knew that those old people and girls who couldn't cry on the ground must be the relatives of a certain Da Chu Erlang who died in the Mangcang Mountain, and they have been looking forward to the return of their sons or husbands to their hometowns, but in the end all they got was a pension, and no one could suppress the despair and grief in their hearts.
Later, the general began to choose some remote roads as much as possible, and he could not pass through the city without passing through the city, not because he was afraid of any pressure from public opinion, he just didn't want to see those sad and desperate tables again, even with his strong heart, he couldn't bear the unbearable weight of those lives.
"Next, remember the tables of these people along the way, and remember the cries of each and every one of them. The general said in a deep voice to the little prince Zhao Tianming on the side: "These are the meritorious relatives of my Great Chu State, their son and brother Junlang died on the battlefield in order to protect this land, what you have to do is to protect them, and wait until the country is strong in the future, and pay for their blood debts." β
The little prince said with a serious face: "Don't worry, the general can rest assured, the Mandate of Heaven knows what to do in his heart." β
The general nodded with satisfaction, looking at the beard that had faintly appeared at the corner of the little prince's mouth, and his heart was full of emotion.
Over the years, the Great Chu State has finally produced a majestic monarch, His Majesty's forbearance reserves over the years have laid a solid foundation, and he can even see the not-too-distant future, Zhao Tian's mandate to ascend the throne as the emperor and queen of the Great Chu Xiong soldiers to ride the world.
He also sighed a little emotionally, there are talents in the country, and he carried the banner of Chu ** from the hands of General Yu Lao back then, but he doesn't know who should hand over this banner in the future.
Over the years, the military intended to push Zhan Muhong of the Greedy Wolf Courtyard up, but was vetoed by the general, he had already heard of Zhan Muhong's name and performance, and he was also very optimistic about the future of this person, but Mu Xiu was destroyed by Lin Feng, he still planned to hide Zhan Muhong for a few more years, and when the time was ripe, he would release it and play it as a trump card of the Great Chu ** side to assist the future new monarch to conquer the world.
He turned to look at Chen Linci not far away, he was not very familiar with this kid, and he had never said a few words, but the picture of Chen Linci defeating Lu Yuanhao and Zhu Shaoqing of the Kaiyang Realm with the strength of the Shaking Light Realm was deeply engraved in his mind, and he had also heard the story of Yuanjiacheng and Liangzhou City, this son had courage and knowledge, talent and the calmness that a strong man should have, he believed that if Chen Linci was given decades of life, he would definitely be able to go far and far on the road of cultivation, until he became the pillar of the new generation of the Great Chu Stateγ
The future is promising, thinking of this, the general's heavy heart finally eased
And many.
Chen Linci didn't like the environment that was too noisy and noisy, so he kept a certain distance from the marching army, and he didn't like the environment that was too depressing and too heavy, so he didn't follow the general like everyone else, he rode a white horse, hanging not far from the crowd, staring at the sky blankly.
Zhao Yiran rode a horse not far from him, looking at him in a daze, Xiao Tang had long been accustomed to the appearance of Miss, Suo was not a light bulb next to him, but returned to the team of the White Horse Academy, and walked with Gu Bai and them, Gong Lihan and the others sat on the horse, looking serious, and they didn't know what they were thinking in their hearts.
Chen Linci's heart has been very bad recently, very bad. He already knew how Master Yang Xiudao died at the hands of Hu Sen and Jiang Shujie, and he already knew that Master was murdered by Wang Chenzhen of the Hidden World Mountain, but he couldn't do anything, what could he do in the face of two Tianshu and one Tianxuan, and he was a guy who had just been promoted to the second floor?
He hated the feeling of powerlessness.
Master Yang Xiudao's revenge must be avenged, but the distance between him and the peak of the continent is too far, far to the point of despair.
He had to work hard, cultivate quickly, step into the seventh floor early, and then go and kill Wang Chenzhen, go and kill Grand Elder Chen Xingguang, and kill Hu Sen and Jiang Shujie, to comfort that kind and obscene old guy.
"Senior Brother Chen, I saw that you were sullen all the way, do you have anything on your mind, can you tell Yiran about it?" Zhao Yiran looked at Chen Linci cautiously and asked.
"I'm thinking about a question. Chen Linci said casually.
Seeing Chen Lin resign his words, a smile flashed on Zhao Yiran's face, and he hurriedly asked, "What is Senior Brother Chen thinking?" β
Chen Linci looked at the sky in the distance, and a touch of colorful glow stained most of the sky red, like soldiers fighting on the battlefield.
He let out a long sigh and muttered, "Senior Sister Zhao, you say, what are people living for?"
"For what?" Zhao Yiran pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "I actually didn't think much about this problem, I was born in the White Horse Academy, my grandfather is a respected dean, my father and mother are ordinary people, they don't know how to practice, and they don't have the status of grandfather, they will grow old soon, I am the only person in the Zhao family who has a talent for cultivation, and I can live much longer than normal people, for me, to live is to take care of them, take care of everyone on the side, and then be very happy every day, it's enough." β
Chen Linci smiled slightly and said: "Sometimes I really envy you, I have my own family and friends, there are many people's fetters and concerns, and I also once had family members and people who were willing to protect me, but unfortunately they all left me." β
Zhao Yiran looked at Chen Linci on the side silently, and suddenly felt that this resolute young man was a little desolate and lonely at the moment, and muttered in his heart You still have me, but he didn't dare to really say it, so he had to look at his side face quietly and didn't speak.
She knew that Chen Linci at this moment only needed a listener
γ She would love to be that listener.
"Perhaps, my name is really not very auspicious. Chen Linci smiled bitterly and said: "When I was in Linxi City before, the old Taoist priest said that I was born with a hard life, and said that people's lives are life and death again and again, so I gave me the name of the two words Linci, and my life is really as he said, I really don't know whether to say that he is a crow mouth or that he sees it thoroughly." β
"Chen, it has the meaning of being old, the farewell is about to say goodbye, maybe the old gentleman hopes that Senior Brother Chen, you will wave goodbye to everything in the past. Zhao Yiran said: "Senior Brother Chen, no matter what happens, we have to look forward, don't we, I hope you can cheer up, like before you should be what you should be." β
"Wave goodbye to everything in the past?" Chen Linci was silent for a moment, and smiled indifferently: "What you said is not unreasonable. β
......
......
It was already approaching evening, the red west was drooping, several colorful clouds covered the sky, and the non-stop squad of the army finally saw the shadow of the capital from afar.
Yingtian City is still so tall and majestic, standing majestically, as if it will not collapse no matter what time it comes, like a giant, guarding the people in the city, no matter the wind or rain.
It's just that the old man who was also guarding the Chu State with his life is no longer there.
Chen Linci rubbed his tired eyes and slowed down the speed of the horse's movement.
Xiongcheng, long time no see.
He muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to say goodbye.
Because goodbye, the old man is gone.
