Chapter 40: Departure
The sixth day after the end of the war
After two days of sunlight, the snow on the original land gradually dissipated, which made the soldiers of Cangnan have a sense of joy that the snow is scattered and the sky is clear.
At this time, most of the Fire Tigers had already returned to the base camp of the Cangnan Army, and everything seemed to be in order.
Bai Changzhi also gradually returned to his original nature of laughing and scolding, but those who are familiar with him can still find that Bai Changzhi has a little more resilience than before.
That's the restraint in the sheath of the edge.
Seeing this scene change, Li Taibai couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and said to himself:
"With its light, with its dust, Xiaobai, you are going to go a different way."
Li Taibai has been staying in the Cangnan Army, often talking with Wu Jing all night, and the relationship between the two seems to be very close.
But Zuo Yin could see that for a carefree person like Li Xianren, he might just be idle and bored, so he came to chat with Wu Gong.
The day of departure for Bian'an City is today, Zuo Yin returned to the base camp of the Cangnan Army with the army yesterday, and he has already packed his things.
When he was sorting out his belongings, he saw his two donated medical skills, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
He studied medicine in Cangnan Army for half a year, but he didn't learn anything famous, and he could only see some simple diseases.
However, if there is anything to be commended, it is that he has a very comprehensive understanding of the medicinal herbs of the empire under the education of the old doctor in the doctor's camp.
Maybe in the future, I can grow some herbs and be self-sufficient, which is not bad.
Zuo Yin thought nonsense.
After tidying up his things, Zuo Yin put on the red light armor of the Fire Tiger and put on a new riding knife, and the whole person looked very resolute.
Li Enyan and Zhang Sishuo on the side saw it and looked very excited, this time Zuo Yin entered Beijing with Wu Gong, although it was only one person, but it still made the two people in the same team proud.
See, our captain is an entourage personally selected by Wu Gong, and among the more than 10,000 Fire Tigers, how many of them have such treatment?
Seeing the expressions of these two people, Zuo Yin knew that they were going to brag for several days after they left, and he was a little helpless at the moment.
He said with a straight face: "Enyan, Sishuo, after I leave, you two will temporarily take over the team." ”
As soon as the words fell, Li Enyan had already clapped his chest and said proudly:
"Zuo Yin, don't worry, we will take care of everyone."
After this battle, the actual combat experience of the two has improved a lot, and although Li Enyan's temperament is a little jumpy, he is from a family, and he is much better than others in terms of knowledge and martial arts skills. However, Zuo Yin relied on Zhang Sishuo the most.
Zhang Sishuo has never mentioned his family background, his martial arts foundation is slightly weaker than Li Enyan, fortunately, the level of bow and arrow is very good, and his personality is more stable, after Zuo Yin leaves, with the help of Li Enyan, he should be able to control the entire ten teams.
Zuo Yin opened his mouth and said: "After I leave, I will leave the big affairs to the two of you, if you are not sure about anything, you can go to Captain Shen Mu to help, on weekdays, Enyan, you can listen to Sishuo more." ”
Li Enyan immediately climbed on Zhang Sishuo's shoulder, and said with a somewhat humble smile: "Zuo Yin, don't worry, after you leave, we can take care of the team." ”
Everyone else also came around, Zuo Yin looked at his brother who had been with him for more than a month, and his brother who had experienced the battle of life and death, and felt a little reluctant.
There were smiles on their faces, from Huo Congwen's recommendation at the beginning, to when they really saw this disciple of Bai Dutong, and then to go to the battlefield with him, watching him go from a young man with outstanding strength to a captain with a faint demeanor of Dutong, everyone had a lot of emotion in their hearts.
"Zuo Yin, be careful on the road."
"Zuo Yin, don't worry, after the newcomers are added, we will promote you as the captain."
These nine people are the only remaining strength of the ten teams, but when the newcomers are added, I believe that the Fire Tiger will soon be able to recover.
Zuo Yin touched their foreheads one by one, which was regarded as a farewell, and in the past few days, the parting with the dead comrades-in-arms has not been long ago, so the scene is not so sad.
When Zuo Yin walked to the door of the Cangnan Army base camp, the convoy was ready, and Wu Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, was going to take a carriage all the way, but the old man smiled and said that he was an old pawn, and he was used to riding a horse, so he insisted on riding, but the original carriage was vacant.
Zuo Yin looked at the convoy, there were roughly two hundred people, which was not much, but on the surface, there was Gongsun Tao, a master who had no mood, and the accompanying people from the guard camp of the Patriotic Guard, and secretly there were crows and sparrows from the forest department, which was considered safe.
What's more, in the empire, who dares to attack Wu Jing, the Duke of Weiguo.
Seeing Zuo Yin coming, the old man waved his hand, looking very eager, and Zuo Yin hurriedly walked over.
Wu Jing looked at Zuo Yin's vigor and said with a smile:
"Let's get in the car." After speaking, he blinked his left eye lightly at Zuo Yin.
Zuo Yin was slightly stunned, it seemed that there was something, ignoring the surprised eyes of the people around him, Zuo Yin bent down into the carriage behind Wu Jing.
As soon as he looked up after entering, Zuo Yin saw that his master was leisurely humming an unknown song, holding a book and flipping through it, and the two long swords of earth yellow and white were placed horizontally on his legs, thinking that it was the legendary "Yellow River Water" and "Sad White Hair".
Zuo Yin hurriedly bent down and arched his hand, and was about to speak, but Li Taibai interrupted him without hesitation.
"Come on, don't see outside, sit down."
Although he didn't have much contact, Zuo Yin knew the temper of his ancestor, and he was not humble, so he sat directly opposite Li Taibai.
As soon as he sat down, Li Taibai had already put down the book in his hand and asked:
"Boy, do you want to read?"
Li Taibai's question jumped a little, and Zuo Yin replied without hesitation:
"I've only read some medical books."
Li Taibai smacked his lips and said dissatisfiedly: "This is not good, if you don't study, why should you be bright?" ”
At this moment, the carriage began to move forward in a hurry, Zuo Yin didn't care about this, his blood surged, and he asked directly: "Dare to ask the ancestor, could it be that the ancient people, before they wrote a book and said it, there were no people who feathered and ascended to immortals?" ”
Li Taibai seemed to be very interested in the stubbornness of this apprentice, and he directly laughed and scolded: "Don't be sophistry, you kid, no matter who it is, reading is beneficial after all." ”
Zuo Yin was neither humble nor arrogant: "That's right. ”
Li Taibai knew that this apprentice was a refutation of his previous sentence, and he couldn't help but be a little helpless, and said:
"Boy, that's good, but if you've seen the ups and downs, seen all kinds of unpleasant things, and can still maintain such a sharp edge, then you're considered to have entered the door."
Li Taibai's words were a little vicissitudes, and Zuo Yin asked curiously: "Then dare to ask the master ancestor has ever encountered such a thing?" ”
Li Taibai gently kicked Zuo Yin with his foot, "Naturally, there is, although your master and I are omnipotent, and there are things that cannot be decided by manpower." ”
Li Taibai looked at Zuo Yin, who was thinking a little because of these words, and sighed secretly in his heart, Zuo Yin's edge is enough, but it is too rigid and easy to break, and it is also good for him to use words to remind him.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, but it was Wu Jing who bent down and came in. Zuo Yin saw Wu Jing coming in and hurriedly got out of the way.
When Li Taibai saw Wu Jing, he opened his mouth and mocked: "Aren't you an old pawn used to riding horses, why are you still hiding in the carriage." ”
Wu Jing was in front of Li Taibai, but he didn't look like a steady imperial general, but like a hospitable outsider in the mountains and wilderness, he smiled and said: "I heard the two of you arguing inside, and I was interested for a while, so I came in." ”
Li Taibai pouted, "You Wu Jing entered Beijing this time, and you actually entrusted Cangnan to Cui Jiuling, which was beyond my expectations." ”
Wu Jing smiled lightly, his face that was originally haggard because of the big war stretched a little, and he said slowly: "Relatively usual, Jiuling's temperament is more stable, and his popularity is also high, Cangnan temporarily entrusts him, and I can rest assured." ”
Li Taibai smiled weirdly: "For the time being? ”
Zuo Yin was between the two, and he didn't know where to deal with himself for a while, the topic of the two seemed to be more and more inclined to the future of the Cangnan Army, he didn't listen to it, but he couldn't help him if he didn't listen, it was embarrassing.
Wu Jing seemed to see Zuo Yin's uneasiness, and asked Zuo Yin with a smile: "Zuo Yin, do you know what I have to do with this coquettish old man?" ”
Zuo Yin shook his head truthfully, but Li Taibai hummed a little song casually, and he had no interest in continuing the conversation.
Wu Jing explained with great interest: "I have heard a story, in the eyes of the world, the Yuanjia Northern Expedition is the work of three people, Shengshang, King Yan, and me, the old pawn, in fact, there is another person, that is, the old man in front of you, he beheaded a lot of strong people in the Northern Barbarians, and it is also a great achievement, but he just doesn't like to be in the limelight in front of the world." ”
Li Taibai snorted lightly, as if he didn't care about it, he said casually: "Five people." ”
Hearing this, Wu Jing's face instantly felt a little emotional, and he said to himself: "I don't know him, how is he doing now?" ”
These secrets were beyond Zuo Yin's expectations. The old events of Yuanjia's Northern Expedition seemed to be more exciting than he imagined.
Li Taibai straightened his clothes, looked at Wu Jing and said:
"I'll go down in front of me, go to visit an old friend surnamed Wang, and go the rest by yourself."
There seems to be a faint sense of alienation in the words.
Wu Jing was silent for a while and asked:
"The last one?"
The gazes of the two of them were a little complicated, and Zuo Yin couldn't quite understand it.
Li Taibai said: "This time, I owe you something, and it has been settled." ”
What was not said, Wu Jing and Li Taibai knew it.
Since then, there has been no affection between the two.
No goodbye.
