Chapter 51: Farewell
It's night, and the moon is in the sky.
On the city wall, Baili Shouyue looked at the desert in the clouds from afar, stunned.
"Keep the promise, have you waited a long time?" Suddenly, a woman's voice came.
Then, I saw Mulan coming over.
Baili Shouyu retracted his gaze and greeted him, saying, "No, I just arrived not long ago, I don't know what Sister Mulan is looking for me?" ”
This afternoon, when Mulan was eating in the kitchen, she asked him to come over here tonight.
"I can't talk to you about anything?" Mulan feigned displeasure.
"I didn't mean that......" Baili Shoujo's expression suddenly became nervous.
"Hehe......" Mulan was amused by his appearance, and only after a moment did she restrain her smile, and said, "Look at your nervousness, don't worry, my sister is not angry." ”
"You're supposed to be leaving tomorrow, right? Just send you a ...... in advance Well, you have this. ”
As she spoke, Mulan threw a bag in her hand.
Baili Shouyu received it in his hand, opened it and saw that there were bright gold coins inside.
"Sister Mulan, I can't ask for this......" After Baili kept the promise, he wanted to return the gold coin to Mulan.
Hua Mulan grabbed his hands along with the bag, and said with a big grin: "Don't worry about mother-in-law, Jixia Academy is the most famous academy in the entire King Continent, bringing together almost all the geniuses in the continent, if you are too cold, you will lose more than your own face." ”
"But ......"
Baili Shoujo wanted to break free, but Mulan didn't let go.
"Nothing! Take it obediently, thanks to you in this guard battle, the guards were not completely wiped out, and this is what you deserve. ”
After saying that, Mulan let go of her hand.
"But my stomach is fine......"
Baili Shou muttered aggrievedly, but he didn't be polite to Hua Mulan anymore, and carefully put away the money bag.
It was so close, Mulan heard it, but didn't fully understand what he meant, and asked suspiciously, "What is good for the stomach?" ”
Baili Shou said: "No, it's nothing ......"
"Don't look aggrieved, it looks like your sister has taken advantage of you." Mulan gave him a bad look.
"If you feel uncomfortable, you should be lent to you by my sister first, and you will become a master of the organ in the future, and you can pay it back tenfold."
Of course, Baili Shoujo knew that she was joking, but the depression in her heart had dissipated a little.
"By the way, Sister Mulan, I also have something I want to tell you."
"You say."
"Let me ask you a question first, is the demonic energy you awakened in the clouds and desert called 'Ruilin'?"
"How do you know?" When Mulan heard this, she looked surprised.
She didn't know the name of this demonic energy very well, but the six words "Ruilin, rule the Quartet" had been deeply seared into her mind.
She hadn't mentioned these six words to anyone, how did she know about Baili Shou Covenant?
Looking at her ghost-like expression, Baili Shouyue almost knew what she was thinking, and he was a little playful in his heart.
I also know that your skin is worth 888 bonds......
However, he didn't say it, but said: "It seems that I guessed correctly, we inherited the power of the magic path of the ancient divine beasts." ”
"The power of the demonic path of the ancient divine beasts?" Mulan was thoughtful.
"Not bad." Baili Shoujo nodded, stretched out his hand, and a wisp of fire flickered in his fingertips.
Then, he made up half-truths: "This is the power of the Vermilion Bird, and I also obtained it in the desert in the clouds......"
"If nothing else, there should still be the power of the three ancient divine beasts of the Green Dragon, the White Tiger and the Xuanwu that no one has inherited, and they are all in the desert of the clouds!"
"You mean......" Mulan's eyes suddenly flashed with an inexplicable brilliance.
"That's right! I hope that in the next time, the brothers of the guard army can go to the cloud desert to try their luck, especially Brother Su Lie, Kai, Mengxi and Li Xin, if they obtain the power of the ancient divine beast, their strength will definitely increase greatly! Baili Shoujo said with an excited expression.
said so, but Baili Shou also knows that many things should be destined in the dark, just like his Vermilion Bird Zhi, Mulan's Ruilin Zhi......
He can't just say that let Kai and Su Lie directly inherit the power of Qinglong and the power of Xuanwu, right?
In that case, it's hard to explain.
Now that he said this, Mulan didn't have too many doubts.
She felt that it should be the message that came with Baili Shou Covenant to inherit the power of the Demon Dao, after all, there were also six words imprinted in the depths of her soul.
"For such an important matter, I will definitely discuss it with Brother Su Lie." Hua Mulan said with a solemn expression.
But soon, her expression eased and said with a smile: "It's you, who went to Jixia Academy, where geniuses gathered, don't fall into the name of our Great Wall Guards, and let them have a good taste of our Great Wall Guards!" ”
"Don't worry, Sister Mulan, I will." Baili Shoujo nodded emphatically.
"That's good...... Now let's go back. ”
"Hmm."
Afterwards, the two walked down the city wall together, and only returned to their quarters halfway through.
……
Lying on the bed, Baili Shouyu took out the money bag given by Mulan, only to feel that his palm was heavy.
This bold woman has always taken care of herself like a sister.
Every time she went deep into the clouds and desert to be trapped, it was she who appeared in time to save herself from the mouth of the dead-killing demon seed.
Now, knowing that she has traveled far away, she has taken out her savings......
As a guard, you can imagine how hard-won this money is.
It is estimated that this love will be difficult to repay in a lifetime......
Put away the money bag, keep the promise for a hundred miles, and gradually fall asleep.
……
Following.
Baili Shouyue and Jia Luo rode a tall horse in front, while Su Lie followed behind with a group of guards to bid them farewell.
After walking not far away, Baili Shouyue and Garo Tsema turned around and said one after another.
"Alright, let's get here first, let's go."
"Goodbye, everyone."
"Don't worry, there's another task for you." Su Lie hurriedly stepped forward, and as he spoke, he took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Baili Shou with a solemn expression.
"When you arrive in Chang'an City, hand over this letter to General Li Jing by hand!"
Seeing this, Baili Shou solemnly put away the letter and promised: "Don't worry, Brother Su Lie, you will definitely complete the task!" ”
Su Lie nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Then you take care of yourself all the way, especially keep the promise, you have to take good care of Jia Luo." ”
That's right...... It's like an old father telling his son-in-law.
Garo's face turned red suddenly, but fortunately she was wearing a veil, so outsiders couldn't see it.
Baili kept the promise as if nothing happened, and said with a smile: "No problem!" ”
Then he raised his head and looked at the crowd in front of him.
The tall and burly Su Lie, the heroic Mulan, the stern armor, the eccentric Shen Mengxi, and the taciturn Li Xin......
There are also guards who shed their blood for the Great Wall and Heluo......
I don't know when we will see each other again?
It wasn't until he felt that there was a fog in his eyes that Baili Shoujo suddenly took a deep breath and calmed the emotions in his heart.
"Goodbye, everyone!"
"Drive!"
……
Watching the figures of Baili Shouyue and Jia Luo gradually disappear in the yellow sand, everyone was in different moods.
But no one realized that Baili kept the promise and embarked on a road of no return.
Even, including himself......
