Chapter Forty-Eight: The Sword God Who Has Nowhere to Place

I thought that Su Jing would refute my words, but I didn't expect her to think about it and said: "It's okay if you don't learn my kung fu, we are both sword gods, and our personal styles are different, what suits me may not be suitable for you, according to my observation, your sword god skills are better at other tricks, and it's not a good thing to use my theory to tie you to death, so now there is only one person who can help you." ”

"Who?"

Su Jing said: "Ink, your style is very similar, if he is willing to teach you, it should be of great help to you." She asked, "What is your impression of ink painting?" ”

I said, "It seemed good at first, but as soon as I said that I was the reincarnation of the sword god, I became cold, and I don't know why." ”

"You didn't offend him verbally, did you?"

"No, did you offend him unintentionally?"

Su Jing shook his head and said, "I don't know, but how can a master like Ink and Wash hold a grudge against you because of an unintentional mistake?" ”

I just shook my head, puzzled.

Su Jing said: "In short, you can contact this person more as long as you have the opportunity, it will be good for you, and don't forget that your current sword qi has not been for a while, this is the biggest problem, I have been thinking about it for a long time and always have no clue, ink may ...... Ouch, no. ”

I wondered, "What are you talking about, the preface doesn't match the afterword?" ”

Su Jing said: "It's best for you not to talk about this matter to outsiders, if you let the people of Hegis know, or even if the people of the Honglie Empire have the intention of being unfavorable to you, you will be in danger." ”

"Who in the Honglie Empire has the intention of being against me?"

Su Jing said if he was a mistake: "The young man became famous, the spring breeze is proud, how do you know the hardships behind this, there are always some people who can't see the good of others." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That's what you mean, right? ”

Su Jing replied: "Also, don't forget your identity, to put it bluntly, you are an undercover agent, as long as there is a little mistake and your identity is exposed, everyone in the Honglie Empire will become your enemies in an instant, not to mention far away, Shi Cundao and Shi Chi father and son will have to meet you, not to mention binding the gods." ”

I said, "By the way, I've got it done with the Guardians, I've talked to their boss." I told Su Jingyi about Huang Yifei, and Su Jing approvingly: "You have done this very tactfully." What do you think? ”

I laughed, "I guess even if they can't help, at least don't mess with me." ”

Su Jingqi said: "What can they do to you?" ”

"The two countries are about to exchange troops, and I'm afraid that they will hold Shi Cundao back."

Su Jing was silent for a moment, and then said, "You really think of yourself as a member of the Shi family?" These things shouldn't be left to you. ”

I laughed and said, "My mom didn't say anything, what kind of dry vinegar do you eat?" Rest assured, I know who I am. ”

Su Jing was speechless on horseback, and suddenly said faintly: "Xiaolong, have you thought about what will happen after the war?" ”

I held my chin: "After the war?" Then let's find a place to live in seclusion, Nongfu Spring Xiao Su Jing, wife and children hot kang head, the two sword gods join hands to retreat, and when people talk about it in the future, what a grand event it will be? ”

Su Jing said: "Of course, it is best to be able to retreat, but ......"

I rejoiced: "So our matter is so decided?" ”

Su Jing glared at me and urged the horse forward, I hurriedly followed, and said with a hippie smile: "No, you can't even stand this level of teasing?" ”

However, Su Jing was obviously distracted, she unconsciously walked side by side with me again, and said slowly: "As a sword god, I originally had no prejudice against the borders, and I have always taken all the people of the Federation Continent as my responsibility, but now there is one thing that is more and more pressing on my heart-Xiaolong, you say, if the war against Hegis is over, the Honglie Empire and the daughter country attack each other again, what should I do?" ”

I wondered, "How do you think so far?" The first battle hasn't been fought yet. ”

Su Jingwu said sullenly: "If there is really such a day, who should I help?" ”

I said, "You are from the daughter country, of course you help the daughter country." ”

Su Jing said: "What if the daughter country invades the Honglie Empire? ”

I said, "Then you will help the Honglie Empire." After saying that, I thought it was funny, "I'm afraid you won't." ”

Su Jing asked, "What about you, who are you helping?" ”

Without thinking, I said, "Help my mom, of course." ”

Su Jing said: "When the time comes, you will meet the Shi family father and son on the battlefield, can you bear to hurt them?" I heard you talk about them just now, so I suddenly thought about this question. ”

I was stunned for a moment: "This ...... I can't bear it! Immediately added, "How can these two countries fight?" ”

Su Jing said: "You will never understand the emperor's mental technique, Her Majesty the Empress and Zhu Xiaofeng are both rare Ming monarchs in a hundred years from a certain point of view, but because of this, they will never leave the disaster to future generations, and if the federal continent is not unified, it will be impossible to be truly stable." ”

I scratched my head and said, "Then whoever makes the first move, let's hit whom." ”

"Who's going to hit whom?" Su Jing smiled: "It would be as simple as that." ”

I was devastated by her: "Why do you talk farther and farther, what do you think?" Do you know that if you continue to struggle like this, you will die of entanglement? ”

Su Jing sighed and said: "I'm afraid that our efforts will be in vain one day, I may be able to defeat Hegis if I join forces with you, but can I defeat people's ambitions?" ”

I finally got mad and said impatiently, "Oh, okay, okay, why don't I give you an idea." ”

"What?"

I said, "I'll talk about it when the fight starts!" ”

Su Jing was stunned: "Wait until the fight starts?" ”

I waved my hand indiscriminately and said: "Yes, when the time comes, it depends on the mood, maybe I will help whoever I see, or you take your mother and I will take my mother, let's find a paradise to live our own life, no matter how they toss, who they love!" ”

Su Jing repeatedly recalled: "I'll talk about it when the fight starts...... Oh, Xiaolong, your words have solved my problem, maybe I can really get along with each other at that time. ”

"yes, that's right......" I asked again stupidly, "can we really fight?" ”

Su Jing said: "I hope I think too much." She smiled and said, "Xiaolong, I find that it's not a bad thing that you're heartless sometimes. ”

I rolled my eyes: "Are you complimenting me?" ”

The two of us walked forward for another half a mile, and Su Jing stopped and said, "Xiaolong, I want to go back to my daughter's country, let's leave now, let's not go here." ”

"What are you going back for?"

"Tell Her Majesty about the recent situation, and besides, Haggis's mission is almost here, and I have to ask Her Majesty what she thinks on this matter, and see if she has any new plans."

I was worried, "If the Empress allows the messenger of Haggis to be deceived by clever words, will she terminate the alliance with the Honglie Empire?" ”

Su Jing said: "This may not be a big surname, although the daughter country and the Honglie Empire can't say that they are cold in their lips and teeth, but they are like two chopsticks, one of them is broken, and the other one can't be caught with the other alone, Your Majesty should have this foresight." ”

I grabbed her reins and reluctantly said, "You're going to leave again so soon?" ”

Su Jing said: "I will be back soon, fortunately, you don't need my help for the rest of the time, and when you go to the front line, I will go to meet you." ”

"That's all there is to it." I suddenly approached her and said with a smile: "Then give my brother a kiss and then go." ”

Su Jing frowned and said, "Don't make trouble." ”

I grabbed her reins and said, "If you don't kiss me, I won't let you go, there are still few people now, and those who will catch up with the market will come out in a while, you can do it." ”

Su Jing was both angry and helpless, only pointed his side face at me, it seemed that he reluctantly agreed, I was overjoyed, I kissed it, Su Jing Leng Ding slapped it on the horse's buttocks, and the horse man stood up and immediately dragged me to a stumbling position, Su Jing had to get rid of it, ran away from afar, and giggled: "Practice your equestrian skills well, my little General Shi." ”

I knew that I was fooled, and I pretended to be serious: "Ouch, by the way, I have one more thing to tell you." ”

Su Jing smiled: "Just say it there, I can hear it." ”

I sighed and said, "That...... Do you have enough money? ”

"You don't have to worry about this, is there anything else?"

"No ......"

Su Jing rode his horse for two laps, his smile gradually faded, and finally said solemnly: "Longyang Yangyang, you have to take care." ”

"The same goes for you."

The two of us were suddenly a little sad at the same time, but Su Jing didn't dare to get too close to me after all, and after laughing, he turned his horse's head and galloped away. I was stunned when she left, and then the sky was slightly bright, and the people who were doing business began to walk around the streets, and I slowly returned to Shifu, and the people were busy with each other, and no one asked me. I went back to my small courtyard, the green calyx fell asleep on the table, I quietly changed my clothes, just wanted to take a nap, suddenly a family came to report, saying that the old lady urgently summoned me to discuss matters, the green calyx suddenly woke up, wiped his eyes and said: "I'll go get it and come back early." ”

The family said: "The old lady has ordered, breakfast has been sent to the conference hall, please ask the fifth young master to use it with all the masters." ”

I didn't know what was going on when I heard it, so I hurried to the conference hall with my family, and saw that Shi Cundao was already seated in front of the handsome case, followed by the three Shi Chi brothers and the little brothers of Zhongdizi, there was a pair of dishes on the small table in front of each seat, two sesame cakes, a bowl of bamboo soup, plus a plate of fresh side dishes, everyone did not move their chopsticks, and their faces were quite tired. Seeing me enter the door, Shi Cundao smiled and said, "Gorou, I'm waiting for you, come and take a seat." ”

I looked at the words and deduced that this time the matter should be said to be a big deal, but it must be very urgent, so I went around to the bottom of Stitch, and then raised my hand and said, "Grandpa, I don't have a stool." ”

This chamber has always been a place for the men of the Shi family to hold meetings, and the fifth child was not qualified to attend before, so there was no seat, although I have been in this place a few times since I came, but at that time everyone was busy dealing with all kinds of emergencies, and no one paid attention to such subsections, so I still have no seats. I wanted to find the "General Maza" to continue to save the emergency, but when I looked back, I didn't know where it had been moved.

Shi Cundao glanced at me, pointed to the family who came with me, and scolded with a smile: "Stupid, don't you want to give your fifth young master a seat?" ”

The family Ding Rumeng woke up and said, "The little one will move the stool." He was just about to leave, when Shi Cundao said again: "That's it, let's see which room is nearby and has a chair to move." After speaking, he quipped, "Our former general left has been wronged before, let's make up for him." ”

I saw that he was joking, and I was even more sure that there was nothing big about the family. After a while, the family moved in a chair, and everyone laughed when they saw itβ€”it turned out that he had brought in the Taishi chair that Shi Cundao usually used for drinking tea and reading. In this meeting room, except for Shi Cundao who sat on a handsome chair, the three Shi Chi brothers also sat on a round chair with a ring back, as soon as this thing came in, it suddenly looked nondescript, and when the family saw everyone laughing, he looked down and his face was red, scratching his head and saying: "The little one is damned, this is changed." ”

Shi Cundao waved his hand and said, "Foolish, just put it there." ”

I climbed into the Taishi chair and sat down, seeing that I was a head taller than others, I couldn't help but feel slightly awkward, Shi Chi and the others didn't care too much, Shi Cundao glanced down and said, "Eat first, and talk about business later." As he spoke, he took a sip of the soup. Everyone also picked up the dishes and chopsticks, I couldn't help but be curious, and my stomach was really hungry, no matter how big or twenty-one I ate, I listened to the sound of chewing in the room for a while, the Shi family was born in the military from top to bottom, and eating was like a storm, especially when it was all my own family, there was no twisting attitude of the wealthy family, and the battle was solved all at once.

Shi Cundao nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly said to me, "Gorou, are you still adapting?" ”

I said, "Adapt." ”

Shi Cun said: "Very good, I hope you can keep adapting, because there are only three things for us in the future: eat, sleep, and kill the enemy!" ”

I was stunned and said, "Is it because we're going to war?" ”

Shi Cun said: "Wrong, it should be said that we are already on the battlefield now!" He waved his hand, "Come on." ”

Shi Chi and the others got up and surrounded the Shuai case, I looked over and saw that a map had been placed on the Shuai case, Shi Cundao pointed to the map and said concisely: "The 300,000 vanguard army of Hegis has marched towards my border, they should be in the Black Forest at the moment, and it is expected that they will emerge on the edge of the Black Forest in about 10 days, I decided to let Chi'er and Diyang Diwei also lead 300,000 troops to wait for them here to wait for them." ”

I wanted to stop talking, Su Jing said that Hegis had gathered 1.5 million horses led by three commanders, and he wanted to take the letter of the Honglie Empire to Fu Sanzhou, and this information should still be on the way, but I learned it first, I thought about it, and I still didn't say it.

Shi Cundao said to me: "Your father and they will set off today, and I will bring 750,000 troops to help." ”

I was surprised: "My dad is leaving today?" ”

Shi Chi looked at the map and didn't say anything special, but Stilyan and Stilwell looked quite excited, and I said, "You guys have already discussed it?" ”

Shi Cun said: "Yes, we didn't sleep all night last night, and we have discussed an overall plan, and you don't know how to arrange troops, so I didn't call you." "It turns out that I was busy all night yesterday, and this master was not idle, Shi Cundao was afraid that I would be lost, and explained, "Come to Fang Chang, you will have more opportunities to learn in the future, this time is just a general deployment, and there is nothing to see if you come." ”

Stilyan said: "Actually, grandfather sent someone to call you, but he shouted twice at the door and did not respond, grandfather was afraid that you would be young and sleepy, so he didn't call you again." ”

I yawned and said, "I wasn't in the house last night. ”

"Huh?" Shi Cundao and the three Shi brothers both focused their puzzled and stern eyes on me, and Shi Chi took the lead in slapping the table and said, "Then what are you doing, don't you know that the children of the Shi family are not allowed to go home at night?" ”

I waved my hand boredly: "Assassinate the emperor." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Everyone looked at each other, no one could say a word, and after a terrible short silence, Shi Chi shouted: "Presumptuous! Do you dare to say such a rebellious statement? ”

I bowed my hand again and again: "Listen to me, this matter was entrusted to me by the emperor, and it is like this......" I quickly explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail, because I saw the eyes of everyone in the historian's family, and if I didn't tell the truth, they would have to kill me on the spot.

"......" was silent again, and Shi Chi suddenly said: "You asked me for the map of the palace, but you actually did this?" ”

I nodded.

"Then why don't you tell me the truth?"

I smiled: "I'm just afraid that your old man will be too loyal, and I want to say that if you are afraid to let me go, it will ruin the emperor's plan." ”

Shi Cundao was most concerned about the result, and said eagerly: "Later, did you get the jade pendant?" ”

I said, "If you get it, how can I mess up if I can't do this?" "I know that this matter can't be hidden, even if the Binding Divine Guard doesn't spread it, there were still more than 2,000 guards in the palace at that time, so I didn't hide it, and told me how I entered the palace and how to do it with the Binding Divine Guard, of course, all the parts with Su Jing were automatically filtered out by me.

Shi Cundao paused, and suddenly laughed and said, "It turns out that the Binding God Guard has also been so embarrassed. ”

I said with a straight face: "Grandpa, I have reached an agreement with Huang Yifei that he will never make trouble for us during our expeditions, and he has to provide information." ”

Shi Cun Dodge said: "Why did he promise you?" ”

I smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'll rob his deputy commander in anger." ”

Shi Cundao high-fived and said: "We haven't been out of the division yet, Gorou has made a great contribution first!" ”

Shi Diyan and the others couldn't interject at all, and they didn't have the intention to interject, they were still immersed in the shock of my defeat of the Binding Divine Guard, and after a long time, Stilyan said: "Good girl, the lowest level in the Binding Divine Guard must also be the middle stage of the sword master, and I am not the opponent of any of them, and I was actually picked by the fifth brother alone!" ”

I smacked my lips and said, "To be honest, I still have some skills in binding Shenwei, and I also rely on luck." ”

Shi Cundao stroked his beard and said: "It's rare that Gorou knows humility at a young age, not bad, not bad!" ”

I said, "Grandpa, don't say that, I don't think of myself as a dish at all." This is absolutely true, but unfortunately no one believes it anymore, so I took the opportunity to ask, "Grandpa, how much do you know about the person Ink?" ”

Shi Cun said: "Ink? There is such a monk in the palace, probably to do things for the ladies or something, what do you ask him to do? ”

I said, "Oh, it's okay, let's talk about this expedition." "Sure enough, as I expected, the ink monk is usually very low-key, and he doesn't even know about Shi Cundao's teachings and practices, and I'm afraid others don't know about it.

Shi Cundao thought about it for a while, and then said: "I led the Chinese army myself, your third uncle served as my right army, and Dizidi Prefecture followed him on an errand." ”

I asked, "What about my second uncle?" ”

Shi Cundao glanced at Shi Fei and said: "Your second uncle stayed in Kyoto, from the big to the changes in the middle of the court, to the heavy supplies, he can be the first to talk to us if something happens, and the burden on his shoulders is not light." ”

I said carefully: "You left my second uncle in the capital, why do I sound a bit like an undercover agent?" You...... Don't you believe in the emperor? ”

Shi Cundao was not angry, and said: "Yes and no, I naturally don't suspect that the emperor wants to harm us, but the three armies are outside, and there are inevitably good people among the ministers to sow discord, whether it is random suspicion, the emperor listens to these rumors and rumors, if he has any ideas, your second uncle can also convey these news so that I can be prepared. The emperor trusts me, but these guys have to be guarded against, and again, the war is together, whether the food and materials can be in place in time is also the key to victory or defeat, which has to be coordinated by all ministries, if there is greed for ink and delays, the emperor will not check for a while, and your second uncle will have to deal with it. ”

I sighed, "Fighting a war is really a science." ”

Shi Cundao said with a smile: "So, you still have a lot to learn." ”

At this time, I suddenly thought of a question, coughed and said, "That...... Grandpa, let me ask one more question, what are you going me to do? ”

"Ahem...... Shi Cundao suddenly looked more embarrassed than me, and said: "Well, to be honest, I haven't thought about it yet." ”

"Ahem, ahem!" This time I was really choked with saliva, and collapsed: "No wonder it's so lively, it turns out that you plan to let me watch the fun?" ”

Shi Cun said: "The emperor is going to hold a swearing-in meeting the day after tomorrow, and his meaning is very clear, that is, to lift you out to encourage the morale of the army, so I ...... it for the time being."

I picked up and said, "I'm just a vase for the time being?" ”

Shi Cundao said hesitantly: "I want you to lead an army alone, you are not experienced enough, let you take a false position casually, it is against the emperor's original intention, you ...... You'd better let me think about it. ”

I said helplessly: "Yes, then you can think about it, don't forget to tell me when you think about it." ”

Shi Chi took Stilyan and Stilwell to Shi Cundao and said, "Father, that kid is about to go on the road." ”

I said, "Dad, can't you wait for me to come with you after the pledge meeting?" ”

Shi Chi shook his head and said: "The soldiers are very fast, if I delay here for a day, the soldiers will have to work twice as hard to hurry, and we must arrive at the designated position before the Hagis vanguard walks out of the Black Forest." ”

Shi Cundao pressed his hands on Shi Chi's shoulders, looked at him deeply and said, "Let's go, before I see you again, give Lao Tzu a good life, as well as my two grandsons." ”

Shi Chi nodded, and then hugged Shi Fei Shi Dong goodbye, they are all veterans who have experienced countless partings, but they don't have the slightest attitude of children, but the brothers Stilly and Stitch Stitch are very excited, and even the always old Stilyang can't help but be excited. Stilyang walked over and hugged me hard, and said, "Fifth brother, you are our pride, and the eldest brother is waiting for you on the battlefield." When it was Stilwell's turn to be with me, everyone knew that we were not on good terms, and they gathered their eyes, and Stilwell was forced to reluctantly hug me, but he said with a small yin wind blowing in my ear: "Old Five, although you are a sword god now, you are still the same as before - useless!" ”

I smiled bitterly, and lost the interest in fighting with him, and muttered: "I knew that it was so difficult for a doctor to find a job, and I should have gone to a junior college ......in the first place."

I went to buy pies today, and there were many people in front of me, but the pie maker turned them one by one unhurriedly, and I realized the pain of slow updating, so I felt that it was time to break out a chapter, and then ...... Actually, I didn't change it yesterday, but this is to make up......
