Chapter 517: That's Life
Shen Leng asked the soldiers to open the door and took Sumeru Yan and Li Buxian into the courtyard, Chen Ran and they put away the crossbow or something, think about it, if you did it just now, don't say that no one in Sumeru Yan has the certainty of winning against Shen Leng, even if there is, he may be directly shot into a hedgehog by the pro-soldiers in the general's mansion.
When they arrived at the living room, Shen Leng asked people to make tea.
"Have you thought about what to do in the future?"
Shen Leng asked Sumeruhiko.
"Since you're coming to me, just talk about it, you can't go back to the scholar."
"I'm not going to go back there, too...... I don't plan to do anything for the time being. ”
Sumeru lowered his head: "I just feel that during the time in the high channel, I made money by doing coolies every day, although it was hard but down-to-earth, so I thought that if I was lucky enough not to die in the hands of the general, then I would go back to doing coolies." ”
"It's up to you."
Shen Leng nodded: "It's just a pity that you're a little bit of a talent." ”
He had something to say, but it wasn't convenient yet.
Sumeruhiko: "There's nothing to be ashamed of, the skills I have practiced are sealed by myself." ”
"It's a little boring to sit like this, or else you've had a fight with my men? They all think they are amazing, you can help me teach them a little lesson. ”
Shen Leng asked tentatively, and Sumeru was silent for a moment and nodded: "Okay." ”
Not long after, Chen Ran came back with his head down: "Lost." ”
After a long time, Dewey came back: "Lost." ”
Wang Kuohai looked at Shen Leng's face: "I'll go." ”
Shen Leng nodded.
But at this time, someone knocked on the door outside the general's mansion, and the soldiers opened the door to see, it was actually Xiahouzhi, the general of the forbidden army who had never come to the door, and the news of Sumeru's entry into Chang'an today quickly penetrated into Weiyang Palace, and it was already dark at this time, His Majesty was always a little uneasy, so he asked Xiahouzhi to come and see.
When Xiahou Zhi entered the door, he happened to see Sumeru Yanhe win against Wang Kuohai, who had lasted longer than Dewey and Chen Ran.
"Who is this?"
This forbidden army general who seemed to Shen Leng to be a little Meng Chang'an seemed to have some skills, and his eyes lit up when he looked at Sumeru.
Xia Houzhi took off his robe: "No matter who it is, let's talk about it after the fight." ”
Half an hour, no matter whether you win or lose.
After two more incense sticks, Sumeru took a step back: "If you fight, you and I will be tired to death, how do you call the general?" ”
"Xiahouzhi."
"In Shimosuruhiko."
Shen Leng stood there and watched all the time, and he probably already had a certain number in his heart, between Sumeru Yan and Xiahou Zhi, it was nine and five, anyway, it was less than ten.
"I'm tired, drink."
Xiahou Zhi asked Shen Leng: "Is there any good wine in the General's Mansion?" ”
Shen replied with a sneer: "Naturally." ”
A group of men sat around a table, after three rounds of drinking, Xiahou Zhi also eased up, and turned his head to look at Shen Leng: "I've always wanted to ask General Shen for advice, anyway, I've had a fight today, why don't you fight again?" ”
Shen Leng shook his head: "You two have just fought, and I have also watched you make a move, if I fight you again, I will take advantage of you." ”
Xiahouzhi: "So General Shen doesn't dare?" ”
Shen Leng: "Don't dare to fight alone, I can beat you both." ”
They are all men, where can they endure it?
So the three of them went out to fight again, and the three of them fought in a dark way, and they couldn't tell who was fighting with whom, anyway, it was a scuffle, and the three of them squatted there panting and sweating from the time they had eaten until they had passed.
Chen Ran sat on the steps and yawned, then lowered his voice and said to Dewey Ming beside him: "If they continue to fight like this, they may fight until the first day of the Lunar New Year...... How boring it is to watch like this, or let's make a bet? ”
"Then you have to bet that our general will lose, what's the point of betting that our general will win?"
As he was talking, there was a knock on the door outside, Chen Ranxin said that who else would come on this big night, as soon as the door was opened, it was the tea master who came back, and hurriedly got out of the way, before going to bed, the tea master heard the people in the palace of Concubine Zhen tell him about Sumeru Yan and Shen Leng, and he couldn't let go of it, and left the palace overnight, this is her, where can someone else enter and leave the forbidden palace casually, especially when it is so late.
Seeing the three big men stripped off their shirts and squatting there to gasp, one by one looking at the tired and almost paralyzed, the tea master pouted for a moment, and then coughed a few times: "I'm not at home, the three big men are shirtless, right?" ”
Shen Leng: "......"
Xia Houzhi: "Mrs. Sister-in-law, it's not like this......"
Sumeru: "General Shen asked us to fight, but the fight was not enjoyable, and he also took off his clothes to fight, yes, he was the first to take it off." ”
Xia Houzhi: "Yes, yes, he took it off first." ”
The three of them hurriedly put on their clothes, and their faces were red as if they had been burned.
Shen Leng smiled wryly: "We are serious about learning." ”
Xiahou Zhi and Sumeru Yan said at the same time: "General Shen and his wife should rest early, and we will leave." ”
"It's so late, I'll have someone clean up the guest room."
Tea Master smiled: "General Xiahou's house is more than ten miles away from here, and Mr. Sumeru and Mr. Li haven't found a good inn, so they all stay, and the guest rooms are enough." ”
Sumeru blushed and clenched his fists: "Thank you, madam." ”
Li Buxian looked at the face of the tea master and was stunned for a while, and Sumeru Yan pulled him before he reacted, and hurriedly bowed his head.
In the guest room, Sumeru Yan glared at Li Buxian: "In vain, you are also a gentleman who teaches and educates people, why did you stare at Mrs. Shen so rudely just now, if you let Mrs. Shen scold you, I will see how you end." ”
Li Buxian went over and closed the door of the room: "You also know that the ancestor once wrote a book of the first idle book in the rivers and lakes, and the book has dabbled in all kinds of doors, but the most commendable thing about the ancestors is physiognomy, I have a few hexagram books left by the ancestors at home, and I was startled when I accidentally saw Mrs. Shen's face just now." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, you can see something."
Sumeru didn't believe it.
"I really do."
Li Buxian lowered his voice: "Mrs. Shen looks so strange. ”
Sumeruhiko: "Hehe, if you really understand, then look at me." ”
"I've seen it for a long time."
Li Buxian said: "Do you know why you suddenly came to my house that day to eat my cabbage, did I not blame you but also took you out for a drink?" It is precisely because I see that you have an extraordinary face and think that you will most likely soar in the future, so I have a relationship in advance. ”
"Shameless."
Sumeru scolded and became curious again: "Then what do you think of my face?" ”
"If you die in a hundred battles, you have to be crowned the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households."
Sumeru Yan paused for a moment: "Unlucky, unlucky, you mean that I will eventually join the army?" And then died at the time of the hundredth battle? Even if I die and become a marquis of ten thousand households, what can I do, everyone is dead, it's not appropriate. ”
Li Buxian shook his head: "Human life." ”
Sumeruhiko: "Then I won't join the army." ”
Li Buxian was silent for a moment: "When you fought with General Shen Leng, you kept staring at the crisscrossing scars on his body, what were you thinking at that time?" ”
Sumeru lowered his head: "Thinking about how many reincarnations I will have to reincarnate to clear my sins if such a general who fights for Daning is killed by me......"
"More than that."
Li Buxian leaned forward: "I also saw the expectation in your eyes, you also want to live like General Shen, you said before that the martial arts you practiced were sealed by yourself, but you are not reluctant, and you can't fool me, the moment you decide to come to General Shen Leng, you have already thought about what to do in the future." ”
Sumeru lowered his head a little: "Maybe." ”
He suddenly remembered something: "Then can you see when and where I died?" ”
"I can't see clearly, it's probably north."
Li Buxian said: "But what the hexagram book says may not be all accurate, everything has cause and effect, when you came back from the north, you felt something, so you went to Gao Hangdao to find me, I guess, most of it is because you changed your mind after killing the assassins of the black warriors in the north, that is the cause...... Death in a hundred battles is not a hundred battles in the army, so it may not be that you will die in the war, maybe you will fight a hundred wars on the day you die. ”
Sumeru Yan suddenly laughed, and he didn't know why he was relieved all of a sudden: "You are really good at persuading people, you will die in the army, and if you die in the army, ask General Shen tomorrow if you can take me in, you are right, I thought about it before I came, I want to join the army." ”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, Li Buxian went over to open the door, and it was Xiahouzhi who came in.
"Mr. Sumeru, what are you going to do in the future?"
Xia Houzhi said with some eagerness: "If you don't have any clear plans, why don't you go back to the forbidden army with me first?" I guess you came to visit General Shen most likely also have the intention of joining the army, it is really a pity that you are not in the army like this, but think about it, if you follow General Shen into the water division, what can you do, it is not interesting to float on the boat all day. ”
He lowered his voice and said: "I have asked Your Majesty to leave Chang'an City and go to Northern Xinjiang, it is not my wish to be too idle in the forbidden army, Northern Xinjiang is now a shortage of people, if you have the intention of joining the army, it is better to go with me, a manly man was born in the army, so he naturally wants to go to Northern Xinjiang, kill the most fierce enemy, and drink the strongest wine." ”
Sumeru looked at Li Buxian, and Li Buxian shook his head vigorously.
Sumeru let out a sigh: "When does the general plan to go to the Northern Frontier?" ”
"After the death of the Northern Xinjiang General Tie Liuli, General Wu Xinyu took over the Iron Cavalry, General Haisha had already gone to the Water Division, and General Meng Changan was also transferred out of Northern Xinjiang, and there was a shortage of people there, so I planned to leave after the New Year, Your Majesty has already approved it."
Xiahou Zhi said: "I can't allow you more, the fifth-grade general is a little troublesome, but I can give it to you as the sixth-rank captain." ”
"Then the Sixth Rank Captain."
Sumeru stood up and clenched his fists: "I am willing to go to the northern frontier with General Xiahou." ”
Xiahouzhi was overjoyed, laughing, happy like a child.
After Xiahouzhi left, Li Buxian grabbed Sumeru: "What are you doing?" I told you not to go north, the north is not good for you, a few days ago I asked you about your birthday, and then look at your face, most of you can see that your murderous star is in the north, just now I also reminded you not to go to the north, because of this I will accompany you to see General Shen, General Shen's naval division in southern Xinjiang, you may be able to avoid fate, why do you have to go back to northern Xinjiang. ”
Sumeru laughed and patted Li Buxian's shoulder: "Because that's the place to kill the black warriors...... Xia Houzhi said, a manly man was born in the army, of course, he has to go to the most cruel battlefield to kill the most fierce enemy, I drank a cup of throat when I was in northern Xinjiang, it was really delicious. ”
He looked out: "That's wine, that's life." ”
