Chapter 202
The afternoon training camp is not as difficult as everyone thinks, because of the relaxed activities in the morning, the training in the afternoon does not need to return to normalcy and force too tightly, it is necessary to relax one by one, after the training is halved, it is the learning of code words, and the final stage is taught to the guards, as for the next assessment, it depends on whether the weather allows it.
Time flies in the eye, there are two moderate snows before the New Year's Festival, and the thickness of the snow is no more than people's calves, thick and sticky, and it is a little difficult to step on it and pull it out.
The ground of the training ground was cleaned by the secret guards, and the progress of the training was maintained as much as possible, and the intensity should be halved due to the weather, so as to prevent the unfortunate fall under the feet and the fracture of the fall in the winter.
The days are approaching the New Year's Festival, and the day of going home that everyone is looking forward to has arrived, and after the morning training the day before the vacation, Hongming left everyone with something to say.
Everyone remembered that mysterious place, and immediately came to their senses, rubbing their hands and warming their ears, and stopped to listen to the next amazing joy.
"Everyone goes back to eat at noon, no need to train in the afternoon, pack up and pack up things, and after gathering and assigning people tomorrow morning, you can go down the mountain and go home in batches." Hongming said, "Is there any place to go to come to me to sign up, and tell the people I want to stay before gathering tomorrow morning at the latest." ā
"Is the place inconvenient to reveal?" Someone asked unwillingly, it's been a month and it's been delayed for so long, and people who are holding back feel uncomfortable, so they can't be happy.
"It's not a bad place to go, why can't you say it." Someone followed and coaxed, and he was going to go home and say an interesting story.
"This place is a bit special, and if you don't believe it or go on a group adventure, you can't do it." Hong Ming gave the answer in a teasing tone. "Gather tomorrow morning and tell everyone."
The word special evokes the endless reverie of many people, what is special in the end, and what is so special? A question mark in the head. Forget it, I've been waiting for a month, and it's not a short half a day.
"Then can we go and have a fun time after the New Year's Festival?" They are all teammates, brothers and sisters who have been working hard together for months, and they should always find a good and auspicious day to get together after the festival.
"That's okay, I'll talk about it tomorrow morning." Hong Ming happily agreed.
"When will we get our treasure?" Someone is an anxious person, and after waiting for a month, he thinks he has been cheated?
"We have stepped up our efforts. Some things take a long time because they are hand-drawn manuscripts, so you don't have to worry about Lesy being delivered to you before the New Year. Hong Ming didn't care about the recklessness of the person who asked about the matter, "I will send someone to ask later." See if you can get the good one first, everyone wait patiently, everything is high-quality. "Even if the man doesn't mention it, before leaving, he has to explain it in advance, so that no one will think about it.
Everyone was relieved to hear it, and it was right to think about it carefully. The Winged King made a move, so why did he buy ready-made ones to fool them. It's not that they don't have long eyes and don't know the goods, and there are indeed a lot of people in the four thousand, and they barely make half of it in a month of overtime, and most people choose weapons, and the difficulty naturally increases, which is common sense.
When the matter is over, everyone should disperse, go back to pack their bags, and happily relax for an afternoon, waiting for the reunion with their families tomorrow. No, wake up early tomorrow morning. Go back in batches as when you came, there will definitely be plenty of time, so it's better to bring some silver to buy some New Year's goods or something home.
On the way, Meng Zhou was embarrassed to ask, and when he returned to the tent, he couldn't hold back his words and said to Wu Yue: "Have you changed your mind?" "Go home or go to a special place, the answer will be revealed tomorrow, it must be after registration, if no one signs up, this matter will be invalidated.
"Well, I'll sign up later." Wu Yue has already thought about it, he is not welcome at home, why go back to see people's faces and make everyone unhappy, anyway, every year he is looking for a place to spend by himself, and now the Yiwang provides a place, and it is a pity not to be so mysterious, where is it not over, maybe there are unexpected surprises.
"Remember to contact, and we'll go and have a look together after the New Year." Meng Zhou's face was full of excitement.
Zhang Qi is nothing, he can go sooner or later anyway, and he didn't say that the number of people is limited, the place should be big enough, and when he talks about this, he can't help but talk about another related thing.
"Isn't it okay for so many of us to go in a big way?" It is easy to be used as a target, Zhang Qi couldn't help but worry, "Could it be that the place is as remote as this mountain or that it is entered in batches?" ā
"It depends on the place." Zheng Cao said, "If it is in a Zhuangzi outside Beijing, it should not be used." ā
"Do you think it's on Zhuangzi?" What's so special about that? Meng Zhou was puzzled.
"Where else can there be for 4,000 people but Zhuangzi?" Zheng Cao thought about it all night and came to the conclusion, "There is no such big place in the capital, and no matter how powerful the Wing King is, he doesn't have the ability to occupy a large area." ā
"It makes sense." Zhang Qi nodded, quite agreeing with Zheng Cao's opinion.
"If it's boring in Zhuangzi." Meng Zhou's good mood suddenly dropped to the lowest point.
"I don't think so." Wu Yue said with a smile, "To be called special, there must be a special reason." ā
"Whatever, Wu Yue will go to explore the road first, if it's okay, let's go together." Meng Zhou said this impatiently, and waited until the moment when the puzzle was revealed.
"Can the silver that Zheng asked for come down tomorrow?" Zhang Qi talked about the treasure chest, the weapon is slow, that's for sure, and the silver is a little unreasonable.
"Didn't you mean to ask?" Meng Zhou raised his eyebrows, "I must be asking the Wing King if he will give the silver first." ā
"Wait, the Winged King won't break his word." Zheng Ke is quite patient with this, that is, he said that he must give affirmation and do what he says.
"I'm very, very hopeful that something will arrive in the afternoon." Meng Zhou intends to give his friend a surprise, this moment is the most suitable, once he returns home and meets again, he doesn't know if it is the Year of the Monkey, it is not easy to get together, and he will solve it first.
"It's not just you looking forward to it, but all the people who have been waiting for a month are almost looking forward to it." Zhang Qi didn't say anything cool this time, he was also anxious, his family was waiting for Ye Shan Ginseng to save his life, and the more he got to this time, the more calm he became.
"So what are we going to do now?" Meng Zhou was a little dazed as soon as he rested, he didn't know what he should do, he was tired like a dead dog in the past and wanted to have a rest, but now he has it, but he doesn't know how to distribute it. There was no plan at all.
"Do you want to go hunting?" Meng Zhou mentioned yƬ, I really can't think of a good way to waste time.
"The snow in the forest is so thick, you really have to encounter wolves and other large beasts. I can't pull my feet out, and I can't run. Zhang Qi stabbed Meng Zhou's whimsical opinion.
"Then what do we do?" Meng Zhou kicked the question to Zhang Qi to see if he could say that he was ugly.
"Why don't you go out for a walk and the scenery in the mountains is still very charming?" Zhang Qi didn't have any good opinions.
"Heh, you don't think there are beasts this time?" Meng Zhou seized the opportunity to sarcastically, "How cold is the winter. ā
Zhang Qi didn't want to compete with Meng Zhou for these useless nonsense, so he turned his head and ignored Meng Zhou.
"Hmph." Meng Zhou rolled his eyes directly.
Wu Yue and Zheng Ke were speechless if they wanted to laugh or not. The two of them don't have a place to talk quietly, and they always fight endlessly.
"Master." Hongming came in with lunch and asked about what the four thousand people were looking forward to.
"The slave sent the guards back. More than half of the things have been made, and everyone is in a hurry if they can send it first. Hongming spoke, "There are also those who want silver." "Shouldn't I send it too?
"The money will be given first." Xi Chao spoke, "Make it first and find it in everyone's hands." "It's also a hassle to get things. I can't stand the crowd. It will be a long time to come one by one.
"The ginseng thing." I forgot to ask, I just remembered it after so long, Xi Chao was also busy, Xu Mian didn't bother to ask when he came back that day, the difference between the two was opened, and he forgot about it after a long time.
"Slave go and ask." This matter was originally managed by Hongrui, but later he took over Hongming's task and was busy and couldn't take care of such trivial matters.
Hongming went out for a while and came back and said, "Doctor Xu said that the patient can't use wild ginseng, and the deficiency is not replenished. He was prescribed another medicine and took three doses to nourish his qi and blood. After using up, go to the pulse again and dispense another medicine. ā
"This ginseng?" To give or not to give? Hongming was stumped, and if he used it, he would not give up all his efforts, so he asked Doctor Xu Xiao to run away and eat a good meal.
"You go and give ginseng, and I'll talk about it then." There is nothing difficult to do, there is no shortage of ginseng in the palace, there are many years, and the Xi Dynasty is not distressed.
"Yes." Hongming listened to the order, mainly because he was afraid that Zhang Qi would think crookedly that the master was buying people's hearts, and raised his eyes to see the master's expression, forget it or don't say it, the master doesn't care, this matter depends on Zhang Qi's mentality.
Hongming was busy with the matter at hand, and was about to take the silver and ginseng to Zhang Qi's side, not wanting to see Zhang Qi and others walking towards this side as soon as he went out, so he didn't have to run by himself.
Zhang Qi and the four of them came together to accompany Wu Yue to sign up, and by the way, to see if they could hear the news in advance and solve the doubts in their hearts.
The red-clothed man in front stood outside the tent, as if waiting for someone, and the four of Zhang Qi were wondering when they saw this, and stepped forward to say hello.
"Red girl, we're here to sign up." Zhang Qi was the first to speak.
"I just have something to tell you." Hong Ming said, "Keep up." "It's not a place to talk outside the big tent, but a secluded place.
"Me?" Zhang Qi was very surprised, how could it involve himself, which one is this singing?
"Let's take a look." Meng Zhou was willing to join in the fun, lest the world be in chaos.
The four of them were inexplicable, followed Hongming to a secluded place, and listened to Hongming speak: "Who will sign up?" "It can be seen that not all four of them are interested.
"It's me." Wu Yue took a step forward and spoke, "They came with me." ā
"Okay." Hongming didn't say anything, looked at Zhang Qi and said, "Wait a minute." He said and left.
"How did you go?" Meng Zhou was confused, didn't he want to say something?
"It looks like you're taking something." Zheng Ke heard a little meaning, "Our baby." ā
"Really!" Meng Zhou couldn't believe it, "So fast, no, no, we're not the first to get something." "It's just worth it.
"Yes." Zheng Ke was happy in his heart, and he didn't show fear of being looked down upon on his face, saying how depressed he should be when he saw Qian Yuan's eyes.
Hongming came back with his things and handed over the silver and wild ginseng to Zheng Ke and Zhang Qi respectively.
Meng Zhou looked at Zhang Qi, what happened to him and Wu Yue? Seeing that there were only Zheng Ke and Zhang Qiyou, doubts gradually arose on their faces, and they looked at Hong Ming, whose expression seemed to be talking about me?
Seeing this, Hong Ming smiled and said, "In the afternoon, a batch of pre-made ones was delivered, and it was easier for the two of them to find." ā
Indeed, one is silver and the other is ginseng, Meng Zhou and Wu Yue accepted this explanation, anyway, the things arrived in the afternoon.
"Zhang Qi, there is something to explain here." Hongming said, "The reason why you want wild ginseng has been seen by the master." Inevitably, your family has already sent Imperial Doctor Xu to see the wrong medicine, and prescribed three doses of recuperation medicine to replenish the body's vitality first. After that, go to the pulse to prescribe another prescription, ginseng is a great tonic, your mother's body is weak, and the deficiency is not replenished, this mountain ginseng is still kept, don't use it indiscriminately. ā
Zhang Qi was surprised when he heard this, it was hard to imagine that this would be the case, the Wing King was too thoughtful. It's just unexpected, pie in the sky, no. It should be said that gold bricks fell from the sky, and he was dizzy and completely out of state.
Zheng Ke and the three of them were also surprised, the Wing King could think of the details, which did not match the noble identity of the Wing King's indifferent face.
"I hope you don't think about it. The master has always been generous to his own people. It's not about winning people's hearts. Hongming felt that the words had to be explained, what if he wanted to be crooked.
"No, it won't." Zhang Qi suddenly came back to his senses and stammered, "Thank you, thank you." "I was so moved, I asked the imperial doctor to raise my hand at the Wing King, it was difficult for me to ascend to the sky, and it seemed promising to be able to get the imperial doctor to see my mother's illness.
Zhang Qi suddenly realized that the ginseng box in his hand was heavier than a thousand catties. Although he didn't open the box to see the quality of the ginseng, he knew that wild ginseng with a vintage was often priceless and extremely difficult to obtain. Mother's illness is expected to be useless with wild ginseng in her hand, and it is inevitable that she will be suspicious of taking such a valuable thing again.
"Since my mother doesn't need it, it's a waste to put it here for me." Zhang Qi held the hand of the ginseng box and handed it forward, "Please take it back." "Thick-skinned this thing is also hot, put it in your own home as a baby, if you really have to have a mistake, it will be returned, and you will be less worried about it when you use it as a medicine in your stomach.
"I can't do this." Hongming really has no right to take it back, his heart is turning, the four people in front of him have good character, and maybe everyone will work together in the future.
"So, is the Winged King free?" Zhang Qi decided to thank the Wing King for his kindness to him in person.
"Free." Hongming nodded, "You can go by yourself in a while." ā
"That's right." Hongming looked at Meng Zhou, "I can't get the military book you want now, because you haven't written it clearly, whether you want a book or a set." "It just so happened that things came together to settle things out.
"Book of War!" Zhang Qi, Wu Yue, and Zheng Ke looked at Meng Zhou with strange eyes, and they already had a preliminary conclusion in their hearts.
"Uh, hehe." Meng Zhou touched the back of his head crampedly, how to explain what to do if he missed the bottom.
Hong Ming saw that there was an inside story here, and said again: "Which one do you want?" ā
Meng Zhou heard Hongming's question and hurriedly replied: "Which one has all the contents, which one you want." He didn't know how to choose the book of war, and the original surprise almost turned into a fright, and the plan was in vain.
"Otherwise, take a break during your vacation and choose for yourself, and whichever one you choose counts." Hongming himself doesn't touch the book of soldiers, it's a shame to get it wrong, the master reads it occasionally, and he can't bother the master to find it, absolutely not, think about it and let them choose it themselves.
"Huh?" Meng Zhou's mouth opened wide when he heard this, and his eyes fell in shock, not that the military book is not passed on to the outside world, and it is not easy to get it, how can he be picked and selected like a cabbage here in the Yiwang.
It's not true, Zheng Ke and the three of them are not much better than Meng Zhou, they know the preciousness of the military book, how can there be people to choose, it can't be that they didn't sleep well last night, their ears didn't brought, and their brains are not enough.
"What then?" Meng Zhou rubbed his hands nervously and asked cautiously, "Really?" "I'm embarrassed to ask, shame!
"Really." Hong Ming nodded in affirmation, naturally knowing the meaning of the expressions on the faces of the four people that could not be hidden.
"There are so many." Zheng Ke whispered to himself, and accidentally said it, Fang Jue was ashamed and turned red.
Hongming also saw that it was not Meng Zhou who wanted the military book but Zheng Cao, so he said: "You want the military book, and you can arrange the time to choose it then." ā
Zheng Cao opened his mouth, gritted his teeth and said, "Well, but I've already chosen something else." "The heavy silver in your hand is your own choice.
"It's your internal problem, you can discuss it yourself." Hongming does not meddle in such issues.
"Go, go." Meng Zhou suddenly said, "What, can you go together?" "Insight, insight.
Hong Ming counted the number of people and said, "There are a total of sixty people who want the soldier's book, and they can go together at that time." ā
"Well, that's great." Meng Zhou and the others were excited, and they were able to see the military book that was treasured by the family.
This situation took a big turn for the worse, and the four of them were shocked, the matter came too suddenly, and there was no foresight at all, and it was settled so quickly.
After saying the matter, Hong Ming left in advance, leaving four stunned people.
"I, I'm not dreaming, am I?" Meng Zhouwu whispered to himself, stretched out his hand and pinched his arm fiercely, screaming in pain, judging that the matter was true.
"Heh, I'm convinced." Wu Yue looked at Meng Zhou, this stupid boy shouldn't be planning to surprise everyone, or if he met him, he would be surprised.
"Thank you." Zheng Ke solemnly thanked Meng Zhou.
Meng Zhou was embarrassed and said, "Everyone is their own people, don't see each other like this." ā
"Everyone is a brother." Zhang Qi punched Meng Zhou, and he was really tight.
"Don't talk about me, this matter is like this, everyone can go together, everyone can study together after getting the military book, and discuss with each other if there is anything you don't understand, how good." Meng Zhou's mind calmed down, "There are blessings and hardships." ā
"Good brother." Zheng Ke, Zhang Qi, and Wu Yue said in unison, patting Meng Zhou's shoulder and sighing.
"Don't talk about this, Zhang Qi doesn't want to return the ginseng." Meng Zhou diverted the topic, he couldn't afford everyone's love for him.
"Let's go, let's go together." It's time to thank the Wing King, Wu Yue started.
The four of them entered the Winged King's tent, and this was the second time the four of them stepped in, and they looked at the Winged King with a regular salute.
"What?" Xichao put down the pen in his hand and looked up.
"Thank you for taking care of your mother." Zhang Qi stepped forward and stood still, and put the ginseng box in his hand on the table, "Even if it is for my mother, it is enough, and the ginseng should not be valuable." ā
"It's okay, this king has already said that there is no conflict between the matter of having a copy of things and your mother." Xi Chao has a very good impression of the four of them, and he knows how to be greedy and greedy.
"It's too expensive." If you want it, there is no place to put it, Zhang Qi is willing to give it up.
Xi Chao understood when he heard it, stretched out his hand to open the ginseng box, and the ginseng in it was displayed in front of the person, "Even if you feel precious, it is okay, good things are remembered, and you will take it to Xu Mian for a while, he knows how to concoct it, see if he can take it in small amounts, and deal with your mother's condition." ā
"This ......" Zhang Qi didn't expect the Wing King to do this, it was really like a dream.
"This king is full of words, the truth that the things sent out will not be returned, take them, the things are used, what a pity to put them." Xichao doesn't mind giving more tolerance to people who look good.
"Thank you, Lord Wang." Zhang Qi had no choice but to accept it happily, and then refusing it was a little ugly, in case he annoyed the Wing King, it would not be beautiful.
"Anything else?" Xi Chao asked patiently, his gaze swept over the four of them one by one.
"The subordinates want to know the place provided by the prince." Wu Yue spoke, "I won't go back during the New Year's Festival." "Ask the Winged King and you might get the answer.
"Wing King's Mansion." Shiochao gave the answer.
How could it be! The four of them were stunned again, the whole person was stunned, too surprised and couldn't bear it, just relieved, again, and it was shocking news. (To be continued......)
