Ning Yu pushed open the door, and the sun shone in the room, sprinkling a faint spot of light on Ning Qianqiu's face, if it weren't for the wine jar in his arms, it would be a little uninhibited.

Ning Qianqiu felt the heat of the sun, and muttered in his mouth, "You ..... You dead old man, disturbing the master's sleep. As he spoke, he shielded himself from the sunlight with his hands.

Ning Yu snorted lightly, "The soldiers from my Eagle Battalion haven't been so cowardly!" ”

This sentence was not heavy, but it fell on Ning Qianqiu's ears like thunder, he stood up with a spirit, subconsciously made a military salute, and shouted: "Tell the camp...."

Ning Yu saw all this in his eyes, and his heart was also very uncomfortable, and he sighed: "Although I kicked you out, but in my heart, I still see you as a soldier from my Eagle Battalion, since you are a soldier from the Eagle Battalion, you must understand what the Eagle Battalion is." ”

"I understand, I am a soldier from the Eagle Battalion, and I naturally understand it very well." Ning Qianqiu's face turned a little red, and he argued loudly, but his confidence was insufficient.

"Then tell me, what is the Eagle Camp?"

"Eagle Battalion, Eagle Camp is..."

"What's it?"

...........

After a long silence, Ning Qianqiu laughed at himself: "I've lived there for three months, but I still haven't figured out what kind of place it is. Cousin, you're right, I really don't deserve to be there. ”

From the camp to his cousin, Ning Yu heard Ning Qianqiu's loneliness and despair, if he turned around and left now, Ning Qianqiu's life would probably be ruined.

Ning Yu didn't speak, and walked out of the courtyard with Ning Qianqiu, riding a horse along the way, bringing the small dirt mountain outside Xiaogan County.

Ning Qianqiu looked at Ning Yu who was leading the way in front of him, his already desperate heart was mixed with vague hope, he wanted to grasp this last straw.

Ning Yu stood on the top of the cliff, in fact, it was not far from the foot of the mountain, and his back had a rebellious and unyielding taste, which was integrated into the remoteness of his bones, making people feel a kind of loneliness, a kind of loneliness that was not understood by the world.

Ning Qianqiu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he only sighed, he didn't understand the loneliness of the other party, but he could feel the loneliness, what did he say? Ning Qianqiu understood that his cousin never needed the comfort of others, because others were not worthy of comforting this truly strong man.

"Do you know why I created the Eagle Battalion?" Ning Yu's voice was a little ethereal.

"I don't know."

Ning Yu continued: "Many people think that I am doing good deeds and adopting those homeless orphans, but I, Ning Yu, have never done good deeds, let alone cultivating these people at any cost like now. ”

"I train them, give them the best weapons, impart the best military knowledge, and instill loyalty to my Ningyu. In order to ensure their future supply, I specially organized people to find mineral salt, and in order to develop mineral salt, Huitong Qian Zhuang was established, and even the current Huguang Chamber of Commerce has my own efforts. ”

After saying these words, Ning Qianqiu was so shocked that he couldn't speak, he had always admired this brother very much, but what Ning Qianqiu didn't expect was that he didn't know this cousin at all.

Ning Yu sighed softly and said: "In this world, there has never been a shortage of people with hearts, but at my age, I am so deliberate to do these things that ordinary people dare not think of, do you know why?" ”

Ning Qianqiu looked at Ning Yu's pitch-black pupils and shook his head sluggishly, why? Now Ning Yu can be said to lack nothing, he will be able to take over Ning Zhongyuan's official position in the future, and now he has also taken the Tongsheng exam, as for the money and beauty, will the Ning family still lack these things?

"People live in this world, they always have to do something, maybe they don't do anything, and they can live comfortably for a lifetime with the power and status of my Ning family, but are you really willing?" Ning Yu's words were a little bewitching.

"Qianqiu is unwilling."

"At a certain stage, my life is over, but God has given me another chance, and I will tell myself that this life is to realize a great ideal." Ning Yu took a deep breath and looked at Ning Qianqiu with a smile, "Now, this ideal, I have seen the dawn of hope. ”

Ning Qianqiu couldn't understand it anymore, and she was faintly uneasy in her heart, so she had to be silent.

Ning Yu turned his head to look at him, "I can't carry this ideal alone, I need a helper." ”

Ning Qianqiu hesitated a little, and said softly, "Cousin, will you let me go back to the Eagle Camp?" ”

Ning Yu shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not to go back to the Eagle Camp, but a more important mission." ”

"It takes a hundred or even a thousand years for the towering giant trees in this world to grow. But whether it is a hundred years or a thousand years, it will only make the world praise the crisp and solid trunk full of eyes. ”

"But many people don't know that if this towering giant tree wants to grow, what it really can't do without is the roots in the dark, and without the roots to deliver nutrients at the bottom, this tree is not far from death."

"Qianqiu, are you willing to be the root of my Ning family?"

........

In March of the 59th year of Kangxi, Ning Yu selected 20 teenagers from the Eagle Battalion, plus 10 children of the Ning family, and launched a half-year training.

Although in later generations, this spy organization is little known, it has to be denied that the organization created by Ning Yu has played a very important role in the future cause, and it can even be said to be very crucial.

Since that day, Ning Qianqiu has completely disappeared from people's field of vision, except for Ning Zhongjing who vaguely knows a little news, the rest of the people have no idea about his whereabouts, and as time passes, Ning Qianqiu is gradually forgotten by people.

After this incident, Ning Yu went to Wuchang to find Ning Zhongjing to ask for guilt, but Ning Zhongjing, who knew what happened, no matter how reluctant he was, he had to admit that Ning Yu's approach was more beneficial to the Ning family, which was the determination and courage of a man from the Ning family.

After Ning Qianqiu's affair was over, Ning Yu returned to the Eagle Camp, and then suddenly remembered that after exterminating the bandits in Peach Blossom Mountain and catching three people from the back mountain, it was too late to review them, and they had been locked in a secret prison for a month.

Ning Yu felt that the relationship between those three people and the Huaibei Salt Gang should be very deep, and he thought that he should be able to know something from the mouths of those three people.
