The torrential rain stopped in the early hours of the morning, the red sun rose in the east, and the trees and flowers in the mountains still had a little dewdrop.

Outside Yueyang City, in the huge military camp, from time to time there were people pushing grain trucks and ordnance in and out.

Now that the situation in Chu is basically stable, the general Tu Qianchu is leading his soldiers and horses to confront the 'Dongyue' soldiers and horses in Ezhou, because gunboats and other ordnance are still being vigorously built, and they cannot be sent to Chu in a short time, which is considered a stalemate, and there is not much to do in the military camp except for the dispatch of grain and grass.

In the small tent near the tent, Zhongli Jiujiu got up early and came to the workbench to prepare various medicines.

After an autumn rain, the weather was much cooler, and the little beetles that were afraid of the cold and heat were also released, and they were scurrying around in the tent as if they were happy; The little sparrow may have been upset when he looked at it, and flew up from time to time, stuffed the little beetle back into the bottle, and pressed the mouth of the bottle with his claws, and was suddenly let go by Zhongli Jiujiu with a fierce look.

Busy and leisurely, Zhongli Jiujiu occasionally looked outside the tent, and saw that Xu Buling and Ning Yuhe's master and apprentice had not returned, and there was obviously a little envy and jealousy in his eyes.

Two women and a man ran out to play for a night, and Zhongli Jiujiu didn't have to think about it to know what to do. I envy the stinky Taoist aunt in my heart, who can spend the night with my father-in-law; I was surprised that the stinky Dao aunt dared to take her apprentice to spend the night with the man outside.

If she was defenseless and Chu Chu lay side by side with her tail and moved by herself......

Zhongli Jiujiu secretly shuddered, this kind of immoral and audacious thing, just thinking about it makes me feel embarrassed, I really don't know how the faceless and skinless stinky Dao Gu persuaded Qing Ye......

If only Chu Chu was so easy to fool......

Zhongli Jiujiu secretly glanced to the side, and hurriedly lowered his head.

Zhongli Chuchu was pounding medicine next to him, obviously a little absent-minded, and he took the wrong medicinal materials several times.

Zhongli Jiujiu thought at first that Chu Chu was also thinking about Xu Buling and Xiao Ning, but after looking at it a few times, he felt that Chu Chu's expression was a little too abnormal, so he hesitated, got up and sat next to Chu Chu, and asked:

"Chu Chu, why are you so distracted today? Xu Bu Ling is already full of qi and blood, nourishing and recuperating with warm medicinal materials, you add so many ginseng cordyceps, do you want him to fight with nosebleeds? ”

"Oh......"

Zhongli Chuchu came back to his senses, looked down at the medicine jar, hurriedly picked out the extra medicinal herbs, and said softly:

"Nothing...... Hmmm......"

I said two sentences, and I stopped talking.

Zhongli Jiujiu sensed that something was wrong, sat a little closer, and said with concern:

"Chu Chu, I'm your master, are you still hiding something from me? Did he go out with Xu Buling last night, what did he do to you? Kiss you or do you do it? You tell Master, I'll clean him up. ”

Zhongli Chuchu shook his head, not knowing what to say.

Nanyue is different from the Central Plains, Shanzhai is a small ethnic group, huddling together for warmth between the barren and steep mountains, and the relationship is far closer than the ordinary villages in the Central Plains.

Chu Chu and Jiu Jiu both grew up in Nanyue cottages, Jiu Jiu's grandmother is the daughter of the old village owner, and his grandfather is Langzhong who escaped from the Central Plains during the war; Parents have been practicing medicine in the cottage all their lives, and finally went to the mountains to collect medicine and had an accident, and the young Jiujiu was also taken care of by the village.

When he was young, he received the favor of the elders of the village, and now the master and apprentice have come out to walk the rivers and lakes, and they are considered to be developed outside, so they can't just cut off the relationship with the village, and even ignore the life and death of the elders in the past.

Zhongli Chuchu hesitated, but still said softly:

"Nope. Yesterday...... Yesterday, I went out with Xu Buling, and met a few people from South Vietnam, saying that we were arresting strong men over there, and there was a lot of trouble. ”

Zhongli Jiujiu sat up straight for a few moments, and thought about it slightly:

"Now that we're at war, we probably want to catch strong men over there. I remember that every village has to be out of people, my father is Langzhong, and Aunt Gui specially asked my father to hide in the mountains, so as not to be dragged away by the government...... Why, there are a lot of people in the imperial court this time? ”

Zhongli Chuchu just listened to some rumors in the market, and it was not easy to say it directly, so he just shook his head:

"I don't know, Xu Buling let people inquire about the news, and when he comes back, you can ask him."

Zhongli Jiujiu faintly felt that something was not right, but Chu Chu didn't seem to know the inside story, so he didn't ask too much, got up and walked out of the tent......

————

The dawn of the morning.

Xu Buling took the master and apprentice off the painting boat and drove the horse back to the military camp.

Ning Yuhe and Ning Qingye rode together, and Ning Yuhe sat in front with a smile on his face.

Ning Qingye frowned, his face was still red at this time, and from time to time he raised his hand and twisted it on the master's waist, obviously not dissipated.

However, the relationship between master and apprentice is obviously more intimate.

Thinking of last night's scene, Xu Buling still felt a little floating at this time.

Last night on the small painting boat, he was pulled and refused to leave in the early night, so he naturally pushed the boat down the river.

Although I didn't really think about Qingye, but Qingye, who was holding a thin paper face, bullied Yuhe, and Qingye didn't dare to look at it and couldn't avoid the shameful appearance, which was indescribably moving.

Especially in the end, Qingye was also dizzy, and at the instigation of Yuhe, he held what he gave him, and the taste of it could only be understood.

did ridiculous things together, just like handing in the name of the rivers and lakes, and became grasshoppers on the same bed. The slight pressure in Ning Yuhe's heart naturally disappeared, and he did not shy away from the affairs of men and women.

Ning Qing's night is almost the same, they all slept together, what else can be weird? They all began to taunt the master directly about the things on the bed.

went out to relax for a wave, and the three of them relieved a lot of mental fatigue in the past month.

After Xu Buling returned to the barracks, he asked the master and apprentice to go to the camp tent to rest, and went to the handsome tent alone to deal with the tedious affairs in the barracks.

As soon as he walked near the tent, he saw Zhong Li Jiujiu pacing back and forth in the tent, his hands folded around his waist, and there was a little worry on his face. The nightingale was also standing in front of him, waiting.

Xu Buling tidied up his clothes a little and walked quickly to the front:

"Jiujiu? Nightingale, what's wrong? ”

Zhongli Jiujiu raised his head, and when he saw that Xu Buling was back, he hurriedly pulled Xu Buling's sleeve and entered the handsome tent, his eyes were slightly aggrieved:

"Xianggong, is there something wrong with South Vietnam? I just heard from the nightingale that the cottage was suppressed by the government. Our village is not a bandit village, even if there is a war, there are rules for how many people come out of each village, and the government is innocent, why did it send troops to suppress the village? ……”

Xu Buling didn't know the specific situation, so he naturally couldn't answer, and turned his eyes to look at the nightingale:

"Nightingale, have you heard the news?"

Nightingale stood in front of him and nodded: "Last night, I sent someone to the city overnight to inquire about the three sects and nine streams. In recent days, many people who have fled from South Vietnam have found people in a village in Feishuiling under the guidance of Chen Han, the leader of Yueyang. According to him, Zhan Bao, the current leader of the 18 villages in Feishuiling, got close to the Nanyue government and sent news to the government, saying that the old village was harboring bandits in the rivers and lakes, causing the old village to be surrounded and suppressed by the government......

"He is talking nonsense!"

When Zhongli Jiujiu heard this, he was furious, and turned his eyes to look at Xu Buling:

"Xianggong, that Zhan Bao has not been a good thing since he was a child, he bullied people everywhere with martial arts in the Eighteen Villages, he used to want to marry me, and I cleaned it up, our village is Aunt Gui's house, and I have scolded him a few times, it must be that Zhan Bao who has a grudge and took the opportunity to frame ......"

Xu Buling frowned, and seeing that Jiu Jiu was very angry, he raised his hand to appease her, telling her to calm down for a while.

There are 18 cottages in Feishuiling, and the total number of people is only 10,000, and each village has only a few hundred people, which is just a dispute between villages. Far away in a foreign country, even if Xu Buling wants to protect his daughter-in-law, it is impossible to listen to the wind and rain, and directly take the soldiers and horses to kill him.

Xu Buling appeased Jiu Jiu and continued to ask: "In addition to these, is there any other news?" ”

Nightingale nodded and said: "I went to ask Sister Qiqi last night, recently, the spies in South Vietnam have been reported by wire, the South Vietnamese court is recruiting troops and horses, and the intention is unknown, and Sister Qiqi is also paying attention to this matter." I have also heard of several major cases of slaughtering cottages on the rivers and lakes, and it is described that it does look like the mad king Gu in front of Jiazi. Sister Qiqi said that if South Vietnam recruited troops and horses to wait for an opportunity and threatened the rear of Chudi, it should indeed be treated solemnly. Let Childe take the time to go back to the ship and discuss it with you in person. ”

Xu Buling nodded, and there was nothing important in the army, so he took Zhongli Jiujiu, who was a little panicked, and drove his horse to the building boat.
