Chapter 9 The Storm is Coming

Flowers bloom on both sides of the path, crystal clear dew drops hang on the branches in the early morning, and catkins flutter in the spring breeze. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info early people are busy with their own affairs in an orderly manner, the birds and birds on the branches are chirping, the green smoke in the incense burner is rising, and Zhan Heng slowly wakes up from his sleep. After the hangover, his head ached faintly, Zhan Heng pressed his head with one hand and smiled bitterly, "After all, I'm old, it's useless to get drunk after drinking so much", lifted the quilt and was about to get up.

"Bang ......" The door was pushed open vigorously, and Kiriyama rushed in panting from the outside.

"Master, you are really like a god, cold ...... General Leng, he's coming" Wushan panted and looked at his master, stretched out his thumb in admiration, and looked at his master with a look of admiration.

"What?" Zhan Heng didn't hear clearly, and asked again loudly.

"Master, General Leng is here, and now he is waiting for you in the hall", Kiriyama looked at the master with a smile.

Why didn't you say it earlier, General Leng came and asked him to wait for you and me in the hall, wouldn't it be rude, Zhan Heng looked at Wushan with a blaming face, Wushan was aggrieved in his heart, isn't this General Leng just came and ran over to inform the master in a hurry!

Why did he come here early in the morning, it's a little too early! After the hangover, Zhanheng's mind was still confused, and he only reacted when he heard Kiriyama finish speaking, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart and muttered in a low voice.

When he raised his head and saw that Kiriyama was still stunned, he said angrily, "Since the general is here, you don't go to entertain, what are you doing here?" Master, I packed up, and then I went to, "You go first!" Remember not to say anything that shouldn't be said.

"Sir, what should not be said?" Kiriyama asked, grabbed the boots on the pedal and threw them at Kiriyama, while scolding Don't get out quickly, get out of here to entertain the general, what are you grinding here? Don't be angry, sir! Kiriyama ran out while dodging, muttering that people really don't know what to say and what not to say!

"Hmph, sir, I don't know what to say or what not to say, so I'll weigh it myself? If you say the wrong thing, the master will want your head to move."

"Someone, master, I want to wash, the maids rushed in with toiletries, Zhan Heng stepped on the ground, and hurriedly put on his clothes" Finally, under the service of the maids, I sorted out my appearance and hurried to the lobby.

"What do you mean? General Ben came to him early in the morning, and he sent a subordinate to General Ben to entertain him, doesn't he look down on General Ben! General Leng lost his temper at the foggy mountain with an unhappy face.

Wushan was scolded by a slashing head and covering his face, and he was not happy in his heart, but he had to curry favor with General Leng with a smile on his face, and he was even more depressed in his heart.

"General, you misunderstood, as soon as our master heard that you were coming, he hurriedly called the little one to come and wait first, for fear of treating you slowly, as for the master, he will arrive later, you wait! It's coming soon," Kiriyama said with a smile.

"Hmph, your family is just a lot of shit, and the sesame is a big official, and the ass is still busy all day, it's really useless" General Leng sneered, looking at Wushan with a look of disdain.

When Wushan heard General Leng insulting his own lord like this, he was immediately furious, and he was about to refute General Leng's unreasonableness, and when he opened his mouth, he instantly remembered that his master still had something to ask General Leng to do, if he offended him by refuting General Leng, because of his own negligence, he delayed the master's major event, and he would be to blame for his death.

Zhan Heng trotted all the way, ran to the front of the lobby and stood still, calmed his breath, and then pretended to be indifferent and stepped into the house, the moment he entered, Zhan Heng felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and hurriedly said: "The next official is late, General Wanwang atons for his crimes" Although Zhan Heng said the words of apology in his mouth, there was no guilty look on his face at all.

General Leng was itchy by Zhan Heng's attitude, but he was helpless, if he really dealt with this old horseman, he would suffer in the end.

However, I don't complain about the two sentences, and I am always unhappy, "Zhan Taishou is really acting neatly, and General Ben is just waiting for an hour, and it is still early for the third pole of the sun!" General Leng couldn't help but sarcastically.

Zhan Heng paid attention to General Leng's face, and found that although he was a little angry, he didn't show any performance, it seems that he has something to do with himself today, and it doesn't hurt that he can indulge a little.

"Hahaha, Xia Guan believes that General Leng is here today, and he won't just want to fight with Xia Guan!" Zhan Heng broke the deadlock and changed the topic, looking at General Leng, he already knew the intention of General Leng in his heart, but he pretended not to know.

Whoever says it first will lose, and Zhanheng still understands this truth.

"Yesterday, General Ben was a little busy, and he waited for Zhan Taishou slowly, and he thought that Zhan Taishou would not be surprised by General Ben, so I came to visit Lord Zhan today and contact my feelings, General Leng said with a sincere face, as if he had a good relationship with Zhan Heng, if his tone was softer, it would not be so strong.

Zhan Heng looked at General Leng with a touched face, and said in an excited tone: "I didn't expect the general to be so broad-minded, it was the lower official's rudeness first, the general is busy with things every day, but the lower official bothers the general with some trivial things, the general should have punished the lower official, but the general was kind-hearted, not only did not blame the lower official, but also deigned to go to the lower official's mansion to care about the lower official, and the lower official was really grateful."

The general is really a person who values love and righteousness, and the Great Moon Dynasty is really lucky to have a person like you. The general Gao Yi does not care about the subordinates, and if the general has anything to do in the future, as long as the general gives an order, the subordinate officials will definitely go to the soup and fight the fire, and they will not give up.

Zhan Heng flattered General Leng with a moved face, General Leng was said flutteringly, you must know that this old man has always been against him in the past, but he didn't expect to flatter himself one day. General Leng was boasted by Zhan Taishou, and went down the ladder that Zhan Taishou had set up. It's so fucking happy, because the laughter is too exaggerated, accidentally involved the wound on the body, and suddenly gasps in pain, and snorts "Ah"

"General, what's wrong with you, is there something uncomfortable?" Zhan Heng heard General Leng snort and asked with a concerned expression.

How could General Leng let his opponent know his ugly things, and pretended to be okay at the moment and said: "When I was practicing, I suddenly touched a stone and was slightly injured", with a smile on his face from beginning to end, making people unable to start.

"Hahahahaha" Zhan Heng laughed inwardly, what kind of injury, I'm afraid it was cleaned up by the dominatrix at home! At the moment, he said that "the general's martial arts are strong, and the lower officials have admired him for a long time, and I really hope that I will have the opportunity to see the general show his skills, so that there will be no regrets in life"

General Leng saw that the atmosphere was more active, Zhan Taishou was still grateful, and looked at Zhan Taishou tentatively: "I don't know what Zhan Taishou said to General Ben yesterday?" Seeing General Leng's tentative face, what kind of person is Zhan Heng, that is an old fritter in the officialdom, and he understands it in seconds.

At that moment, he took the initiative to answer the question, what the general said yesterday is indeed true, and the general is not talking nonsense to you for the sake of promotion, but after careful analysis, he dares to make a statement to the general, if the general does not believe it, he can send someone to investigate and prove that what the general said is true.

Zhan Taishou doesn't have to be excited, yesterday listening to Jun's words is better than reading ten years of books, after careful consideration, the general feels that what you said is very feasible, but the Limu clan is high and the road is far away, I don't know which excellent general Zhan Taishou thinks can lead the soldiers to kill the mountain, in order to win the battle for Dayue. ”

"So the general decided to send troops to attack the Limu clan?" Although it was a questioning tone, Zhan Heng was already sure of the general's thoughts in his heart. At the moment, the flattering said: "There are many capable people and soldiers under the general, you can solve this matter by sending a small general out, just kill chickens with a cattle slaughtering knife, and the generals under the general have important things to do, if the general does not dislike it, the general is willing to serve the general."

"You, you're a civilian official with no power, how can you take risks" Although General Leng couldn't send the right person, he didn't want to treat this matter as a child's play. immediately denied Zhanheng's request with a serious face.

"Your Excellency, you don't have to be in such a hurry to deny the lower official," please see, Zhan Heng motioned to the general to look at the case table under his hand, and slapped it with one palm, only to see that the case made by the iron birch tree was torn apart at once, and it was splashed everywhere.

General Leng looked at the shattered case with a shocked expression, "You, you...... You, why are you so powerful, General Ben doesn't believe it, you must be cheating" General Leng looked incredulous, because General Leng was an excellent general, and he was not confident that he could smash the case made of the iron birch tree with one palm, Zhan Taishou actually did it, General Leng was unwilling to admit that he was not as good as a weak scholar, you must know that the hardness of the iron birch tree is famous, it has always been the hardest wood harder than iron, the wood is extremely dense, and it will not rot when it is immersed in water all year round, so it is also a very precious wood, and it is hard to find.

"General Ben doesn't believe it...... I don't believe it, I don't believe you have such a skill," General Leng muttered.

"Well, take it" General Leng raised his hand and handed a teacup to Zhan Heng, if you can crush it, General Ben will send you to attack the Limu clan this time, and all actions will be commanded by you, if you can't crush it, then Hugh blames General Ben for pointing you to a crime of deception.

Zhan Heng looked at General Leng with a heavy face: "I don't know if the general's words are serious?" If the lower officials can really crush this tea cup, the general will send the lower officials to attack the Limu tribe."

"Hmph, how can General Ben be a villain who goes back on his word, as long as you can do it, General Ben will definitely keep his promise" General Leng said with a serious face.

"Thank you, General Cheng, Zhan Taishou is happy" thanked General Leng loudly.

Zhan Heng took a few steps forward and took the teacup from General Leng's hand, held the teacup tightly with his palm, and closed it violently, and then General Leng saw a scene that stunned him, only to see that Zhan Taishou didn't seem to use much strength, and the teacup turned into powder and fell into the air, and suddenly fell silent, and after a while, General Leng reacted, and praised with a stiff applause: "Zhan Taishou is really a master who does not show his face, and this general has always claimed to be a martial arts master, and he is simply vulnerable in front of you."

"The general has won the award, and the lower official has only learned boxing and kicking for a few years earlier, and compared with those real martial arts masters in the Central Plains, it is just an entry," Zhan Heng said with a humble face.

"Oh, even a person with profound skills like Zhan Taishou is not a master, so how powerful should a master in the Central Plains be, General Leng looked yearning, he couldn't imagine that feeling.

This subordinate official is not very clear, listening to the rumors in the rivers and lakes, those first-class masters can come and go freely in thousands of troops, can fly flowers and pick leaves, and can even hurt people in the air, their realm is not something that ordinary people like me can imagine. When he was young, he longed to join these sects, but he was rejected and finally had to give up.

General Leng listened to Zhan Heng's words, knowing that a person as powerful as him was just an ant-like figure in the eyes of those masters, and his heart suddenly felt much better, and he had a kind of comfort that was just like this. At present, the attitude towards Zhanheng is also much more natural.

No matter what the attitude is, General Leng is still not very happy in his heart: "Damn, these civil officials are really not things, they like to play these tricks that want to be caught and indulged, they are obviously so powerful and still hide it, let themselves dig and jump for themselves, and they will be deceived if they are not careful", General Leng is not good at going back on his word, and he is very unhappy in his heart, and he sits on the Taishi's chair without saying a word.

Although Zhan Heng had no intention of fighting for merit, this time he had to go up the mountain to find Mei'er in person, so he would not let go no matter what, but he still gave in appropriately: "The lower officials heard that Ling Lang was both civil and military, and this time he also asked the general to send Ling Gongzi to assist the lower officials to go up the mountain to destroy the thieves" Zhan Taishou saw that General Leng was unhappy and said unhurriedly.

Zhan Heng had good intentions, but he didn't expect to poke at General Leng's sore spot, General Leng was not happy, but he was not easy to reprimand, after all, others were kind enough to raise their sons, did they dare to say "No, General Ben's son is a straw bag, he can't do it" This kind of disgraced words.

Thinking of the sore spot, General Leng couldn't wait to take that unfilial son who was not angry to his eyes and whip him fiercely, showing a bad anger in his heart.

Leng Feng, who was fighting with the maids, sneezed a few times, "Ahhh......h Ahh

What are you thinking, young master! The slaves and maidservants are here! A group of beautiful maids with fat and thin rings stepped forward to hug their young master, Leng Feng was touched by a pair of weak and boneless little hands, and his mouth let out a lewd laugh again and again, "Good young master's careful liver, where are you?" Young master, I'm here! "A group of people are fluttering flowers and catching butterflies in the garden, flirting and scolding, so unhappy.

"I wonder what the general thinks the lower officials think?" Zhan Heng looked at General Leng with a straight face, hoping to be praised by General Leng.

"Haha...... Ha" General Leng's tears almost burst out of laughter, and General Leng didn't speak, just laughed.

"It seems that General Leng also agrees with Xiaguan's point of view, and he smiles so happily" Zhan Heng looked at General Leng with a smug face.

General Leng was choked by Zhan Taishou's sudden words, "Ahem...... cough", Zhan Heng was about to step forward to relieve the general, but General Leng stretched out his hand to stop him.

After a long while, General Leng calmed down and said, "Zhan Tai guards your kindness, and General Ben understands it, but the dog's qualifications are still shallow, and I am afraid it will be difficult to take on a big responsibility."

So be it! This time, General Ben will send 30,000 elite soldiers to you, and when the time comes, you will decide the battle policy for yourself, and as for the dog, you will follow Zhan Taishou to meet the world" After General Leng thought about it carefully, he was still reluctant to give up this opportunity to let his son exercise, so he had such an arrangement, and he believed that with Zhan Taishou's ability, Feng'er would definitely return safely.

"If this defeat causes a war between the two clans, when the time comes, the court will blame it, and the lower official will definitely bear it with all his strength and accept all the consequences.

"Good...... Okay" General Leng clapped his palms with a hearty laugh, cheered for Zhan Taishou's words, stood up excitedly and walked in front of Zhan Heng, and patted Zhan Heng's shoulder to show his relief.

The two looked at each other, everything was speechless, smart people know what they need each other, some things don't need to break the casserole to ask to the end, just know each other.

What are you going to do about this matter, master, shouldn't this matter be, the general should lead the men and horses to kill it, why do you take the initiative to ask Ying, and you want to go out in person! Isn't that unreasonable? Kiriyama looked at his master in confusion.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger, this time the master will go in person to avenge my son" Zhan Heng's face was hideous, and his eyes looked into the distance with hatred.

"Master, now that Miss's life and death are uncertain, how can you conclude that Miss has encountered an accident, maybe Miss is now on her way back, if you go up the mountain to kill the enemy and encounter an accident, Miss is back, what should you do after you leave Miss alone?" Kiriyama looked at the old man earnestly, and pleaded with a face in the hope that the old man would change his mind.

Looking at Wushan's worried expression, Zhan Heng sighed: "You don't understand, if Mei'er is really safe and sound, she has already come back after so many days, Mei'er is a very well-behaved child, she has never been away from home for so long, no matter where she went before, the father always knew where she was, whether she was safe, how she was doing, and whether she was deceived." But this time, unlike any previous time, I have an ominous premonition, sir, and Mei'er is afraid that she will not be able to come back."

Don't be so pessimistic, sir, maybe Miss will be back tonight! Kiriyama self-defeatingly comforted the master.

Zhan Heng touched the head of the Misty Mountain, turned around and looked at the sky with tears streaming down his face, as if he wanted to find the lost person through this heavy curtain.

"What? Father, are you mistaken, don't you know what level your son is? He also sent his son and the army to attack the fierce and vicious Limu tribe, son, am I your own son? Leng Feng cried without words.

"Presumptuous, I think I spoil you too much on weekdays, and I don't know how thick I raise you, do you know how many people can't ask for this opportunity? If you are not the son of General Ben, who will pay attention to you in this Wuzhou City, now there is finally an opportunity for you to make a name for yourself, you still don't have a good grasp of it, what do you want? General Leng angrily pointed at this unsuccessful son, eager to beat him hard, sober him up, so that he could be sensible, and he didn't know what evil he had done in his previous life, and he sent the two of them to torture himself in this life.

Seeing that his father was hard-hearted and couldn't say anything at all, Leng Feng turned around again and hugged his mother's arm, "Mother! You help your son intercede! How can a father send his son to death! Listening to her son's ignorant words, the general's wife looked helpless, and she was about to plead with her son, when her husband's warning eyes swept over, and she continued to be silent.

Leng Feng saw that his mother, who had always loved him, didn't help him this time, and knew that he was in a catastrophe this time, so he ran out angrily.

General Leng looked at the back of his son running out, and let out a long sigh, "The family is unfortunate!" The family is unhappy".

"Master, forget it! Feng'er Zhi is not here," the general's wife said tentatively.

"Hmph, they're all good sons you taught! If you can't do anything, you just get used to him like this! Sooner or later, his life will be ruined in your hands" General Leng walked out angrily, leaving the general's wife standing alone in place, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Feng'er, just listen to your father once! In the past, it was your mother who hurt you, what you wanted, your mother always satisfied you unconditionally, no matter what you did, she was afraid that you would suffer hardships and suffer from it, causing you to develop the bad habit of being indulgent and disgusting, and now you have achieved nothing, causing your father to be bored when he sees you. Son! There you go! Your father has prepared everything for you, this time it is Zhan Taishou who leads the troops, as long as you follow him obediently, you will definitely return safely if you don't cause trouble" The general's wife said good things to her son bitterly, and she couldn't help but cry silently as she spoke.

Seeing that the always fierce mother was in tears, Leng Feng hugged his mother's waist in a panic, and said in a choked voice: "Mother! It's not that your son doesn't listen to you, but the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and the son is afraid that there will be three long and two short, and the son will never ...... in the future I can't see you who spoil me and love me! ”

Leng Feng hugged his mother and cried in a low voice.

The general's wife has not been so close to her son for a long time, and she sighed for a while, since she was a child, her son likes to pester herself, and then her son grows up and thinks he is rude, and he is unwilling to contact himself, only when something happens, he will be close to himself, no matter what, he is always a piece of meat on his body, the general's wife stroked her son's head gently, hugged her son who was kneeling on the ground", looking at her son's child's temperament that will never grow up, tears could not be stopped, and drop by drop fell on the top of his son's head.

At this moment, the general's wife finally admitted that she had no way to teach her son and harmed her son. She is not only a failed wife, but also a failed mother.

Leng Feng felt water dripping from the top of his head, and said loudly, "Mother...... Mother's roof beam leaked, all dripping onto my son's head, it's time to ask someone to repair it, seeing that his mother didn't answer, Leng Feng stretched out his finger and stretched out his hand to his mother with a little moisture from the top of his head, don't believe it. Leng Feng dipped his fingers in a little water, looked up at his mother, and saw that his mother, who had always been fierce and vicious, cried again, her voice became smaller and quieter, and she fell silent.

"Mother, don't be sad, my son goes, can't my son go?" Although Leng Feng was very scared in his heart, his mother not only quarreled with his father because of this incident, but also was sad and sad. And his strategy of declining soldiers, which has always been victorious, is useless to his mother this time, Leng Feng finally accepted his fate and compromised, it seems that he has to go to this matter.

Looking at her son's unhappy expression, the general's wife hugged her son tightly, and the son who was scolded and scolded by the husband seemed to hug the whole world

"Son, you must return safely, if you die, it is not interesting for your mother to live in the world, and your mother will definitely come to you at that time, and you will not be left alone" The general's wife and son cried as if they were separated from life and death. General Leng outside the door interrupted the two with an impatient face, "Howl mourning!" This is", and if you don't hurry up and prepare, the army is about to set off. This mother and son are really enough, it's worth crying like this for a trivial matter, out of breath! General Leng looked at the two people hugging each other with disgust.

"General, since it's okay, the lower officer will set off with the team, you can wait for the good news at home!" Zhan Heng resigned to General Leng.

"That...... That," General Leng looked at Zhan Heng without saying anything.

"General, do you still have anything to order? As long as the general commands, the subordinate will do his best to do it for the general. Zhan Heng looked solemn.

Seeing that everyone was packed up, he waited for Zhan Taishou to be alone, General Leng blushed and whispered in Zhan Taishou's ear, "It's not a big deal, it's just that the dog's ability is not good, and I have to ask Taishou to take care of him along the way, so that he can return safely", after speaking, he turned his face to the side with an embarrassed face, but he didn't look at Zhan Heng.

Zhan Heng also thought that General Leng had some secret things to do by himself, and he still disliked him for having a lot of things to do, it turned out to be this trivial matter, and he said enthusiastically at the moment: "General, please rest assured, the lower official guarantees the return of Ling Lang with all his tails, as long as the lower official still has a breath, he will not let Leng Gongzi be in danger."

Hearing Zhan Taishou's assurance, General Leng patted Zhan Taishou's shoulder with a grateful face and said, "It's not too early, you guys go!" ”

"Yes, General, the lower official has taken his leave" Zhan Heng rode a big horse and led the team to walk away, General Leng stood at the gate of the city, watching the team disappear in sight, before turning around and going home.
