Chapter 31 Departure to Qingcheng

Huan Xiaobao received a flying pigeon from the old man Bao: Emperor Chu was critically ill, and Guo Ba forced the crown prince to marry Yu Qingcheng. Huan Xiaobao's initial motive was only to help Zixin get rid of the fate of political marriage, but thinking that Xiao Ziwu, who had always been strong, had to endure Guo Pork lying on his body, his heart suddenly trembled. Recently, observing the sky at night, Chu Branch's purple qi was declining, thinking that war was bound to ignite in the territory of Chu State. Now the other three kingdoms, I'm afraid they will also be affected, and I'm afraid that there will be another catastrophe. In the past, his own emotions caused the world to experience a catastrophe and the turmoil of the following ten years. Huan Xiaobao counted the days, there was still a period of time before the day when the ten thousand demons broke the seal, so he simply asked the master of the Kuang Pavilion to help him withdraw for a few days. Hearing that Huan Xiaobao went home to visit her sick father, the master of the Shikuang Pavilion didn't ask much, readily agreed, and finally told her to study hard. And there were not many words.

After everything was in order, Huan Xiaobao hurriedly ran to the Splendid Xuan in the Wutian Pavilion, after Qixi became famous, the moon master stared tightly, and there was no way to be lazy, this woman is more thoughtful than the tip of a needle when dealing with things. On this day, embroidery should be practiced before dinner. Huan Xiaobao's biggest lesson: I just can't figure out how to weave a complex and beautiful pattern on Jinpa with such a fine needle and thread!

The moon master wore a white moonlight-like skirt in the slanting light like cicada wings, and lightly opened to a female disciple below: "The deep boudoir courtyard is growing at the beginning of the day, and the beautiful girl is dressed in a beautiful dress." Don't do Dongjun creation, gold needle embroidery. The young leaves of the oblique branches are wrapped in open stamens, but only the fragrance is owed. He once went to the depths of the garden to teach butterflies and bees. After reciting, he continued: There are countless good women who have married with embroidery skills in ancient times, and the most important thing in a woman's life is to have a good home. You see, Han Xianger won the exclusive favor of King Wei with a pair of peony double-sided show screens, and has been glorious for a lifetime since then. You are all going to marry in the future, but you have to make a good future for yourself. Huan Xiaobao sounded like Zhang Er Mazi married Cuihua from the next village, and it didn't seem to be anything special. The other female disciples had their own thoughts, and Huan Xiaobao saw that when the master was giving a lecture on the needle and thread method, the other female disciples called a concentration: the six Ding gods pushed down the Baotian furnace, and the eight wilcorps set fire to the mountain should not distract them, Huan Xiaobao couldn't help but sigh: This month, the master's speech does have a kind of demagogic charm!

That night, Huan Xiaobao told Situ Zixin about her plan. Although Situ Zixin is also a person who has experienced battles, he was also frightened by Huan Xiaobao's thoughts, which was too dangerous. Huan Xiaobao comforted, "I'll be back in a few days, believe me." This is the general point of the Celestial Technique. Seeing that Situ Zixin didn't react for a while, Huan Xiaobao thought that Zixin was worried about herself, so she changed to a relaxed tone and said in a relaxed tone: "Sister Zixin, don't worry, I'll go in a few days." It's okay, I'm the one who spares my life the most. You can take a look at this general point first, it may help you practice the flying technique. Situ Zixin took Huan Xiaobao's handwritten summary, thinking that what this guy didn't like the most was writing, and he always felt that the pen was too soft, so it was better to hold the sword. I wrote this on purpose today, and my heart twitched, and I almost never cried. Situ Zixin hurriedly turned around and pretended to be looking for something.

When I turned around, I saw Huan Xiaobao standing there with a sunny face, and what was pinned to his waist was no longer the steel sword but a delicate wooden sword, and he was still the vigorous little man, but I don't know when, this little man has grown up unconsciously, and he is going to do big things in a blink of an eye. But such a dangerous place in Chu is really uneasy.

"Huan Xiaobao, do you have to go?" Situ Zixin asked solemnly.

"Yes"

"You're alone?"

"Yes"

"I'm going to tie you up too?"

"En" Huan Xiaobao replied firmly. Situ Zixin shook her head helplessly and let out a long sigh.

Knowing that Huan Xiaobao is a tough man, and his martial arts are also outstanding, he can't be restrained if he expects it. I was thinking about whether to find Sima Yi and them to advise.

"Sister Zixin, I'm afraid that the time I'm away will not be peaceful, you can keep this wooden sword for me for the time being, you must put it away. This is my most beloved baby. And I have a set of swordsmanship here, I named her Finger Twisting Rou, which I honed in my swordsmanship class. It is most suitable for people like you who do not have deep internal strength and low martial arts. I'll leave my previous steel sword for you to practice finger wrapping. ”

originally wanted to pretend to be angry and cut off the relationship to stop Huan Xiaobao's plan, but Situ Zixin looked at the little man seriously explaining the matter, and he was a little hesitant. Thinking that she was always guarding her as a sister before, I felt even more ashamed in my heart. Although he is not interested in martial arts, he suddenly has a strong sense of need for martial arts in his heart right now. It's like it's cold and you need a quilt.

"Xiaobao, Taihe is very safe, why did you suddenly think of teaching me this, aren't you planning to come back?" Situ Zixin vaguely felt that she was going to lose something, and she was afraid to think deeply. But looking at the imperative appearance of his own little treasure, he felt sad in his heart. And seeing that it is getting late, it is expected that she will not be left. I had to think about finding Sima Yi, Lou Cang, and Zhu Lin tomorrow to persuade them, maybe it would be useful.

At dawn the next day, Huan Xiaobao got up to prepare, and when he arrived at the gate of the mountain, he saw a group of people rushing in. Looking at the clothes from a distance, it was very unfamiliar, and when the leader approached, Huan Xiaobao was so shocked that he almost ran over from his horse and grabbed the man's neck, and his eyes unconsciously became more sharp. Although the man in his twenties was dressed in military uniform, with handsome eyebrows and starry eyes and a similar high nose bridge to Lou Cang, he may have been on the edge of the desert for many years, and his skin was a little rough by the rough wind and sand, but he did not lose his heroic spirit at all, but he was more mature and sophisticated. With extraordinary demeanor, Huan Xiaobao looked at this face, inextricably linked, I don't know whether he is happy or annoyed: there are people in the world who look exactly like Lou Yuan! Although he knew that he must be noble, he had important things to do at the moment, so he galloped his horse with a slight bow.

The leader looked at Huan Xiaobao's distant back, and was not annoyed by Huan Xiaobao's rudeness, but smiled at the martial artist next to him: Aji. You are optimistic about the spirited little doll, Taihe is really outstanding. The martial artist next to him was named Xiang Ji, and he bowed his head slightly and said: The little sword boy is also rude. It seems that you are more spirited than Your Highness, such an arrogant person, I don't know the height of the sky. The auspicious words were slightly reproachful. The leader smiled slightly, and said, "People are not frivolous and foolish boys," and laughed loudly. Pointing in the direction of the forbidden land, he chanted, "Children skip school and come here frequently, and they are all traced one by one. Because of the fish playing in the water, the edge rings the stone bucket to the peak. Lou Pu returned from inspecting the border and came over to see his brother Lou Cang.

Huan Xiaobao galloped on his horse, and he didn't dare to rest halfway, lest he miss the opportunity. Huan Xiaobao sighed in his heart: It would be great if he could fly with the sword, and there would be no need to bump on the horse. It's a pity that the Yuequan Sword is not an ordinary sword, and it can't be easily exposed. The swords that can be mastered through the sword master's art are made with the blood of the sword master, so that they can communicate with the sword master. Thinking of this, Huan Xiaobao shook his head, he should still be a man, walked thousands of miles, and said with relief: On horseback is a hundred times better than walking!

It was expected that Guo Ba should be stationed outside Qingcheng, and he did not dare to approach rashly. Huan Xiaobao found a proper place, stored the horse, found the opportunity to step into the Duoshan that was far away from Qingcheng, and saw a sergeant from a distance The silhouette is very burly like a hill piled on the horse's back, and the horse seems to be walking in a circle under the city and scolding. Huan Xiaobao thought to himself that these border people are really anxious, and your lord must give time for Xiao Ziwu to think about how to scold you! The season is the end of summer, there is enough food and grass in Qingcheng, and it is indeed a good way to stick to it, but it is a pity that Ouyang Pu is unable to come to the rescue at this time, it seems that Emperor Chu is really sick this time, how did he Guo Ba know? It seems that there is a lot of work in the court, and he can come up with a forced marriage to the crown prince, and it will be justified to take the throne in the future. really has brains, it seems that there must be capable people in the army!

Mars, water, earth, flying, disguise, etc. are Huan Xiaobao or Longzhang when they were young according to the changes of the five elements, and the life test is limited, and the magic method is in the flesh and mortal womb is to do divine things with manpower, so only Bai Ao, the son of Bai Du, was passed on to assist in swordsmanship. Huan Xiaobao thought in his heart: The soil inside the door is thick, and the art of escaping the soil can go straight to Qingcheng, thinking that there must be capable people in this Guo Ba's tent to dig tunnels and enter. Tan Ci was quite proficient in military affairs, and he must have known to order his soldiers to wait, and when necessary, carry stones to break through the gate and close the door. It wouldn't be good if I ran away. suddenly had a plan in his heart, so he decided to go to Guo Ba's tent to offer advice.

Huan Xiaobao performed a disguise technique and turned into a little old man. When he arrived at the camp, he reported his name and was ugly. That Guo Ba heard that there was a hermit offering good advice to help him succeed, so he hurriedly called for the word to come in. When Guo Ba saw someone coming, he was short in stature, ancient in appearance, and his face was like a woodcut, and he often smiled, and he was deeply surprised. Thinking about what tricks this eccentric little old man could have to hold the beauty, he asked someone to sit and set up a drink.

Huan Xiaobao entered the tent only to feel that the pigs and sheep had entered the slaughterhouse, and there were rough butchers in it who were busy cutting off people's arms, gouging people's eyes, cutting off people's tongues, and someone was actually put in a cauldron and boiled. The others who were bound had already shrunk into a ball, their backs and knees spread, and the two strands trembled without shaking, and Huan Xiaobao's stomach was pantothenic, and he felt nauseous.

The henchman next to Guo Ba poured wine and said with a wicked smile: Sir, don't be surprised, those are all fine works captured by our army.

Huan Xiaobao also fought in the past year and experienced a big scene of bloodshed, looking at this scene in front of him, he suddenly felt that his nerves were swelling and his brain hurt. The pungent smell of blood smoked so much that it made people vomit, Huan Xiaobao raised his wine glass and said to Na Guo: Those who have achieved great things in ancient times must have a large amount of heart, and the benevolence of women is all small righteousness, which can match the grand ambition of the king of the world. That Guo Ba was very happy when he heard it, and waved his hand to stop the knife and axe hands. He asked, "What is your opinion, sir?" Huan Xiaobao smiled lightly: "At this time, it is better to be sooner rather than later, Emperor Chu will collapse soon." The marshal should get married as soon as possible, and today the old man will say that it will definitely happen. That Guo Ba shouted to the knife and axe hand, and he didn't play music yet, so as to help Ben Shuai and Mr. Yaxing. The attendants at the bottom took out the cotton and linen stuffed in the mouths of those poor "fine workers", and sizzled and sizzled, accompanied by a terrible wail. That Guo Ba waved his hand, and the bottom stopped. said with a smile: "In the past, Emperor Longzhang killed more than 200,000 of my clansmen in the Fengjiang Commando General Bai Dueng. Although a hundred years have passed, this lesson will never be forgotten by the descendants of the border tribes. The strong is the king, and the weak are only lambs. Huan Xiaobao was shocked, the old past, not to mention that he didn't give such an order at all. Their ancestors were barbarians who killed people and plundered everywhere, and they were famous for their crusades. Ghost Fang, Lou Annoying, Xinjiang Barbarian Of the three border clans, only the Xinjiang Barbarian is the most barbaric and bloody.

Huan Xiaobao's surface was still light and breezy, he raised his glass to congratulate him, and said some auspicious words to Guo Ba's eyes. That Guo Ba looked at the little old man with unusually bright eyes, and there was no fear at all, and he wondered in his heart, he must be a strange person.

Suddenly, the curtain was lifted, and Huan Xiaobao saw a bulging belly leading a fat and strong body into the curtain, and the owner of the belly was like a bell, shaking the mountain and shaking the mountain, and shouted: Brother. The belly glanced at the little old man next to his brother, and then went out again at his brother's signal.

That Guo Ba has always been very suspicious, looking at the little old man in front of him, he thought that even if he had a rebellious heart, he would not be able to save the little chick under the nest. Let's see what he is capable of. If it doesn't work, he will soon attract the water of the Luo River to flood this city, and see how he Xiao Ziwu escapes. It turns out that there is a big river on the east side of this Qingcheng, called the Luo River, which is the second largest river in the Chu State. Huan Xiaobaolai had carefully observed the surrounding terrain before, just waiting to find out what kind of master was behind this Guo Ba.
