Northern Xuanque Chapter 11 An Old Black Dog

Towering Han, vast territory.

Li Anmin's brother and sister have grown up in Xuanque City with their father since they were children, and they have never been far away. But the three of them have a strong sense of belonging to the Han Dynasty, thanks to the strange old man who raised the three of them, Daddy.

When he was a child, what accompanied Li Anmin's sleep was the story of the heroes of the Han Dynasty. Although Dad said very little, whenever he talked about the heroes of the Han Dynasty, he was always full of energy and colorful.

Therefore, Li Anmin knows the stories of many legendary figures of the Han Dynasty.

For example, the strategists who strategize and win thousands of miles.

is also like a young general who broke into the Hu camp alone.

Another example is to point out the country and rebuke Fang Xuan's Great Emperor Mingjun.

These heroic images that have been passed down in history have been deeply imprinted into Li Anmin's heart. It also made Li Anmin have a deep curiosity, intoxication and fascination with the Han Dynasty, this empire full of heroes.

My father often said: "How fortunate it is to be born as a Han Chinese!" ”

I have heard too many stories of generals dying in battles, and over time, Li Anmin has the dream of joining the army and defending his family and the country.

Under the influence of Li Anmin, Chen Fanfan has also started to dance with knives and sticks since he was a child, and the two children come and go, and after a long time, they really have a little bit of appearance.

The two children fight all day long, but instead of caring about it, the father teaches them that there is no shortcut to practicing martial arts, relying on the persistence of little by little on weekdays. Therefore, they are required to set aside half a day every day to practice martial arts.

Dad also taught them that a martial artist without wisdom can always be a knife held by others, and cannot be the person who holds a knife. So, Daddy taught them to read and write. The strange old man scavenged a lot of books out of nowhere and asked them to spare another half day every day to read desperately.

...

Li Anmin has been recuperating at home for more than three days.

These three days were extremely peaceful.

There was nothing Li Anmin feared, such as assassins infiltrating the city and killing them.

The flowing fireflies are waiting for them all day long.

Daddy is still mysterious, going out early and returning late every day.

It's Chen Fanfan, who has been a little depressed in the past three days.

Li Anmin asked a few times, but Chen Fanfan always led the topic elsewhere. Seeing Chen Fanfan's attitude, Li Anmin was not reluctant.

In the process of growing up, there will always be some things that need to be taken care of by yourself, and no one can replace them. Li Anmin knew Chen Fanfan very well and thought it was okay, so he didn't ask any more.

On this day, it was just getting dark. Hongying came to Li Anmin's house with a large number of wound medicines from the Xuanque Army.

Seeing the arrival of the red tassel, Liuying immediately pursed her mouth.

After the eldest brother's explanation, she vaguely knew that the eldest brother's injury had nothing to do with Hongying. On the contrary, because of her eldest brother, Hongying was involved in this attack for no reason.

The eldest brother also said that it was Hongying who saved his life.

Even so, there was suddenly a beautiful sister next to the eldest brother, and Liu Ying was always a little uncomfortable in her heart, so she naturally felt a little hostile.

Seeing the bulging Liuying, Hongying beckoned to the little girl, and said with a smile: "Sister Firefly, come here, see what this is!" ”

As he spoke, Hongying took out a delicate hairpin from his waist. The hairpin jasper is carved, the whole body is translucent, and it is painted with various patterns, which immediately attracts the attention of the flowing fireflies.

Seeing that Liuying was attracted by the hairpin, Hongying secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately after, she pulled Liuying to the little girl's boudoir. Red Ying asked Liuying to sit in front of the bronze mirror and reached out to help her comb her hair.

Liuying grew up with her father with her two older brothers since she was a child, and she lacked the care of women, so her personality was naturally rougher than that of a boy. Although the eldest brother will also help her with her makeup on weekdays, Li Anmin is a boy after all, where is he as careful and skilled as a red tassel.

After a short time, Liuying's long hair was neatly combed by the red tassels. Red Tassel chose the most suitable position and gently inserted the hairpin into the long hair of the flowing firefly. After looking at it for a long time, he nodded with satisfaction.

Liuying looked at herself in the bronze mirror and was speechless in surprise. It's the first time I've been dressed up so well-behaved and cute. The hostility in Liuying's heart towards Hongying was eliminated a lot at once, and at this moment, her face was full of sweetness, she squinted her eyes at Hongying, giggled, and said happily: "Thank you, sister." ”

Seeing Liuying's cute appearance, Hongying couldn't help but stroke Liuying's head. Seeing that Liuying was still playing with the hairpin, Hongying bothered again, turned around and left the little girl's boudoir to find Li Anmin.

He had already heard Hongying's movements, but he hadn't seen her come to him for a long time, and Li Anmin was a little curious.

So, he wondered what Hongying and Liuying had done.

Hongying just smiled and said softly: "I won't tell you, this is a little secret between our girls." ”

Li Anmin laughed twice, and asked about the investigation of the assassin's identity. Surprisingly, Hongying gave an amazing reply!

The assassins are from the Xuanque Army!

There were six assassins in the group, except for four who were killed on the spot by Hongying. The bodies of the remaining two people were also found in the wasteland a few miles away from the shepherd slope.

The two of them died in the same state, and they were both sealed by a sword!

After the investigation of Shen Chengyue, the Marquis of the Light Wind Qu Army, the four people who were killed by the Red Tassel were scattered in various departments of the Black Crow Army. And the other two turned out to be from the Golden Phoenix Army led by Shen Yinan, the commander of Xuanque!

Hongying told Li Anmin that the incident had alarmed Shen Yunan, the commander of Xuanque.

Because this matter is widely implicated, in order to avoid causing panic in the Xuanque Army, Shen Yunan has ordered the black crow general Hu Biancao to investigate secretly!

Hearing Hongying's statement, Li Anmin sat on the bed expressionlessly. At this moment, he couldn't confirm his previous guess in his heart. can quietly insert meticulous work in the Xuanque Army, and even stretch his hand under Shen Yunan's nose, I am afraid that only the Han royal family is the Han royal family.

Within two hours of revealing the news to Hu Biancao, the Assassins had already ambushed the sheep on the slope.

After the assassination failed, the two who escaped were killed again.

This kind of efficiency is difficult to achieve whether it is the little colt or the strength of the Di clan behind him.

What's more, there are also two assassins from Shen Yinan's Golden Phoenix Army!

What a person is Shen Yinan!

At only forty years old, it is known as the three mountains of the Han Army! With a record of winning a hundred battles, he stopped the entire Di clan outside the northern border of the Han Dynasty with the strength of an army!

The Xuanque Banner fluttering in the wind brought a rare respite for the decaying Han Dynasty.

But even so, there are still people who want to put their hands under his nose and want to do wrong!

Thinking of this, Li Anmin couldn't help but sigh.

First, because of the situation I am in, I am afraid that I will be on the must-kill list of the Han royal family.

The second reason is that even if the Xuanque Army is willing to protect it with all its might, it may not be able to ensure his thoroughness.

The third reason is that there are royal families who are fornicating with other places, and there are foreign races outside. The Han Dynasty is afraid that it is about to decay and collapse!

Hongying's face was also complicated, and she roughly guessed the deep meaning hidden in Li Anmin's sigh.

"General Hu has ordered more than 20 of his own soldiers to dress up and guard your house. It's sure to keep Daddy and Hotaru safe! As for you and Fan Fan, General Hu didn't confide in how to arrange it. However, with his name as an unknown Ruyin, he must have already had an idea in his heart. ”

After thinking about it, Hong Ying said to Li Anmin sincerely. She asked Hu Biancao many times about Li Anmin and Chen Fanfan's arrangements, but Hu Biancao always looked like a charlatan, and mysteriously said that the secret of heaven should not be revealed.

Li Anmin nodded when he heard this. There are already Xuanque soldiers patrolling day and night in Xuanque City to maintain order. If there are twenty more generals to guard him, he will surely be able to ensure the safety of Liu Hotaru and his father.

As for himself and Chen Fanfan, it is not as strong as seeking protection from others to protect themselves. In the past few days, he kept recalling the red mist emitted from Hongying's body when he was attacked. Probably the same as his breathing method, it is Wei Xiantong and Song Laosan's "martial arts method"!

This magical ability is by no means like what Daddy said, it is just a way to alleviate his strange diseases!

Thinking about it carefully, Dad seems to be hiding it intentionally or unintentionally, and there must be many secrets hidden in him!

Why does an old man on the border raise his hand to reveal the full majesty between them?

I have never seen my father work, what did he rely on to feed his three children?

Dad goes out early and returns late every day, what did he do?

With questions lingering in his heart, Li Anmin made up his mind to ask his father tonight!

Li Anmin glanced at the red tassel and asked out loud, "Who is the masked royal family?" Who killed the fleeing Assassins? ”

Seeing that Hongying's face was embarrassed, he looked anxious. Li Anmin knew that she must have no clue, so he lost the interest in chatting, and said lightly:

"Since the Assassins have been eliminated, it means that there are more people hiding in the Xuanque Army. And most likely in a position of responsibility. ”

didn't give Hongying a chance to speak, Li Anmin continued: "That's it, I'm tired." ”

Hongying raised her head and looked at Li Anmin, and when she wanted to speak, she found that Li Anmin was lying on her inside. Hongying opened her mouth, but she still didn't make a sound. She glanced at Li Anmin a few more times, sighed in her heart, and turned to leave.

Hearing the sound of Hongying leaving, Li Anmin sat up. The arrow wound in the back was severe, and even after three days of rest, the moment I sat up, it broke the wound again. Li Anmin, who was in pain, gritted his teeth.

At this moment, there was a creak, the door was pushed, and the door of the house was pushed open.

A tall, lanky figure walked in, with a straight waist and sharp eyes.

It's Daddy.

Li Anmin endured the pain behind him and walked into the courtyard step by step.

"Daddy, I have something to discuss with you!"

Li Anmin looked at his father and said solemnly.

Dad didn't pay attention to this, but pulled the rope in his hand.

Only then did Li Anmin notice the rope in his father's hand, and looking in the direction of the rope, he saw a bloated and fat old black dog, walking towards the courtyard.

The old dog was huge, as tall as a man. It was covered with long black hair, drooping eyelids, and its eyes were slightly closed. As he walked, the fat on his stomach swayed non-stop. Miraculously, there is a pinch of white hair between the eyebrows on each side of the black dog, like an old man with a white beard.

The black dog slowly walked into the door, stretched out his nose and sniffed Li Anmin. Then he turned his head and looked around, and found an open space next to the door, so he walked over and lay down, closed his eyes and stopped moving.

Looking at the old black dog's steady and even breathing, Li Anmin knew that it was asleep.

Seeing this, the father didn't care, so he threw the rope to the ground casually, turned around and closed the door of the house.

Looking at the person and dog in front of him, Li Anmin was slightly dumbfounded.

A strange old man brought back a strange dog.

Dad turned to look at Li Anmin, pointed to the black dog lying on the ground, and only said two words:

"Old Black."
