It has been more than half a year since Wu Beichen and others returned to the border pass.

After the trip to the military cemetery, several border soldiers did not say to anyone, Cai's grandmother's grandchildren were arranged in Longcheng Pass, and life was safe.

And because of the [Heavenly Sword Thirty-six Style] Sword Spectrum Mental Method presented by Li Mu, the strength of several border armies has improved by leaps and bounds in the past half a year.

Especially Wu Beichen.

His kendo qualifications are excellent, and he has initially integrated the thirty-six styles of the Heavenly Sword, cultivated to a thousand miles a day, and in several border battles, he turned the tide and made great contributions.

Several other border troops, except for one who unfortunately died on the battlefield, several other people have also been promoted, and they can be regarded as new talents in the border army.

It can be said that it was an encounter in the military cemetery of Chang'an City that changed their lives.

Therefore, several border soldiers are very respectful and grateful to Li Mu.

Moreover, in recent days, the news that Li Mu killed the second prince, defeated the [Red Fire Demon God] Huang Shengyi, and was finally named the King of Taibai by the imperial court has spread all over the world, Wu Beichen and several other border troops are full of emotion, and they did not expect that once they went back to worship their deceased comrades-in-arms, they could intersect with such an earth-shattering figure.

Quasi-saints.

For many martial artists, these two words, when you think about it, will feel unattainable and dizzy.

Several of them buried this experience deep in their hearts and regarded it as a wonderful picture in their lives, and did not publicize it to outsiders.

Unexpectedly, today in Longcheng Pass, I actually saw Li Mu again.

Wu Beichen was pleasantly surprised.

After a brief conversation, he took Wu Beichen to the gate of the small courtyard where Granny Cai's ancestors and grandsons settled in Longchengguan.

"Nana, Nana, let's see who's coming. Wu Beichen pushed the door in.

Granny Cai, who was washing clothes in the yard, knew who was coming as soon as she heard it, twisted her wet clothes, and said with a smile: "Beichen, why is this hour here today, Caicai went to the Iron Sword Pavilion to practice swords, hey, yes...... Ah, it's Lord Lee, you're ......."

As soon as she raised her head, she saw Li Mu standing beside Wu Beichen at this time, and immediately stood up with joy.

"Granny Cai. Li Mu greeted with a smile.

The old woman's spirit is very good, and her body looks much tougher.

"Master Li, why are you here? "Granny Cai is very happy, life-saving benefactor, if it weren't for Li Mu, she and Caicai would have died at the gate of the military cemetery.

"I passed by Longchengguan and met Brother Wu on the street, so I came to see you and Caicai. Li Mu said: "Look at your body and bones, it's okay to have passed the border pass." ”

"Good, all right. People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Granny Cai hurriedly beckoned Li Mu to sit down, and brought out some food, all of which are border specialties, mostly mutton, outside Longcheng Pass is the prairie, and animal husbandry is relatively developed.

After a while, several other border soldiers, also under the notice of Wu Beichen, arrived one after another, and when they saw Li Mu, they saluted one after another, with a respectful posture.

"Big Brother ...... Mess Up"

Nana also rushed back.

The little girl was dressed in a swordsman's suit, wearing a sheepskin jacket with inverted wool outside, and carrying an iron sword in her hand.

She was still practicing swords in the Iron Sword Pavilion, and a soldier came to inform her, saying that there was a distinguished guest at home, and she wanted her to go back quickly, and she was still wondering in her heart, except for a few uncles, there were no relatives left.

As a result, on the way back, I met Wu Beichen, who was buying wine, vegetables and meat in person, and after asking, I learned that it was Li Mu.

Li Mu rubbed Xiao Caicai's face: "Well, I've grown taller, I'm more handsome, and I'm stronger......"

The climate at the border is definitely much worse than that of Chang'an Mansion, but the side dishes with meat are really thriving, a head taller than half a year ago, and the cheeks are much plump, and the figure begins to develop, becoming tall, and becoming a young and compelling little beauty.

Moreover, the little girl's personality is also much more lively.

Granny Cai quickly gathered a large table of steaming meals.

Li Mu had eaten a lot at the street stalls, but when he smelled the aroma of the food, he couldn't help but have a great appetite, anyway, he had to wait for Qiu Yin today, and he couldn't leave Longcheng Pass, so he sat down and ate with an open appetite.

"Big brother, will you stay in Longcheng Pass for a few more days?"

Li Mu helped his forehead.

Can we change the name?

I made a name for myself, but I really dug a hole for myself.

"I was going to leave today, but a friend who had an appointment didn't arrive, and I will probably leave tomorrow. ”

Some of the brilliance in Nana's eyes dimmed all of a sudden.

"Oh. She looked down and pulled the food from the bowl.

Everyone knows what the little girl is thinking.

For her, in addition to Granny Cai, maybe Li Mu is the closest person in the world, and even her status is above Wu Beichen and several other border troops, because Li Mu's words and deeds have had a great impact on her, leaving a deep imprint in her heart.

These days, every time Wu Beichen gave them a dinner party at Granny Cai's house as usual, but whenever Li Mu's mythical achievements that shocked the Western Qin Empire were mentioned, the little girl would listen to them over and over again with her eyebrows fluttering, and she would ask questions non-stop.

Li Mu rubbed the little girl's hair and said, "If you feel that you are not used to the border pass, you can go back to Chang'an Mansion, now the entire Taibai County is my brother's territory......"

After all, the border is a place of war.

Moreover, today's Western Qin Empire is in turmoil.

Civil strife has already arisen, is external trouble still far away?

I'm afraid that with the spread of the news of the rebellion of the king of Zhenxi, there will be movement in the Northern Song Dynasty and the prairie, and it won't be long before the war at the border pass will escalate and become more tragic.

Wu Beichen and the others on the side also nodded.

As soldiers, they are naturally able to clearly perceive the tense situation at the border in the past few days.

However, Nana said very resolutely: "This is the place where Dad once fought, I want to stay here, practice my sword hard, and defend this city like Dad." ”

Li Mu nodded, and then said no more.

People who have faith are happy.

The little girl is young, but she is determined, but in half a year, she is already at the peak level of artistic conception, it can be seen that she is indeed attentive, she can have her own opinions, that is the best.

There was a small talk, and time flew by.

After Li Mu instructed Cai Cai and Wu Beichen and the others in martial arts, he prepared to leave.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

Just look at the gate of the small courtyard, it was pushed open, and the first to come were a few warriors in leather armor, and then a short and fat middle-aged man with the physical characteristics of a steppe barbarian walked in, followed by several generals wearing border army armor.

"Why are you here?" Nana's face changed.

Wu Beichen and the others also stood up, looking unkind.

With a slight anger, Wu Beichen looked at a tall and thin general behind the short and fat middle-aged man, and frowned: "General Zhou, you broke in with the grassland people, what does this mean?"

The tall and thin general smiled slightly and said, "Vice General Wu is also there...... Hehe, Ambassador Wu is in the Iron Sword Pavilion, and after seeing Caicai, he has always been unforgettable, thinking of his youngest daughter who died early, so before leaving, he wants to come to see Caicai. ”

"I don't see him, you go. Nana stood up, holding the iron sword in her hand, and refused directly.

A trace of embarrassment appeared on General Zhou's face.

And the grassland short, fat man who is known as the ambassador of Wu, has been staring at Cai Cai since he entered the courtyard, his eyes have been shining, and he has been staring at Caicai, that kind of look is definitely not the look of a father who has lost his daughter when he sees a girl who is very similar to his daughter, full of **naked possessiveness, but more like a vicious wolf staring at fat.

As for the others, they were all ignored by this so-called Ukrainian ambassador.

Even Wu Beichen, who is the guard of the East Gate of Longcheng, is not in the eyes of this middle-aged Humpty Dumpty.

As for Li Mu?

A young man who looks like he is in his teens, and his clothes are extremely ordinary, no one will associate him with the Taibai King with the name Zhenxi Qin, and think that he is just a neighbor who is unhindered.

The expression on Wu Beichen's face was full of disgust, and he said: "General Zhou, since the master's family has spoken, you should leave with Ambassador Wu, this place is Longcheng Pass, not the prairie, and it is not a place where the grassland people can do whatever they want." ”

General Zhou smiled and said: "Xiqin is a state of etiquette, and everyone who comes is a guest, not to mention, the Ukrainian ambassador came with the goodwill of the Prairie Spider Temple, and now the situation at the border is tense, Yue Shuai ordered not to snub the Ukrainian ambassador." ”

A border soldier next to Wu Beichen couldn't help but say: "Could it be that the so-called not being slacking off is to let the sons and daughters of the Qin people serve the grassland people with flattery?"

"Bold. General Zhou glared at the army over there: "What rank do you have? ”

On the other side, Li Mu whispered to Caicai's side: "What's the matter?" ”

Caicai leaned into Li Mu's ear and told the matter again.

But a few days ago, the Prairie Spider Temple sent a messenger, willing to form an alliance with the Western Qin Border Army, to deal with the Steppe Wolf Temple, the news has spread in the inner city, some people in the Western Qin Border Army, for such an alliance, quite interested, so named Ula not many ambassadors, on behalf of the Spider Temple, entered the Longcheng Pass, once met Caicai, he made a joke, and later said that Caicai looked like his daughter who died early, and wanted to adopt Caicai, bring it back to the Prairie Spider Temple, and cultivate it...... However, he was rejected by Caicai, and later pestered several times, if it weren't for the help of Wu Beichen, the general of the city gate, I am afraid that Caicai has been snatched away by these grassland people.

Unexpectedly, after a few days of stopping, there were not many people in the grassland, and they actually broke into Caicai's house directly.

Moreover, looking at it like this, it was personally brought by Zhou An, the main general of the [Iron Sword Battalion] of Longcheng Pass, which is afraid that it is not good for those who come.
