Recently, Su Xiaoqi found that he actually liked the thing of "sleeping", in the past, as long as he slept for two or three hours, he felt energetic, but now even if he sleeps for a day and a night, he feels sleepy.

The key is that the effect of cultivating in a dream is obvious.

In the past, although Su Xiaoqi's realm was the wonderful realm of "one thought of God", after all, the original realm was just a mortal body mirror, but now, he has reached the spirit realm.

Especially when cultivating in a dream, it is completely different from cultivating in the real world, because in a dream, some rules can be completely determined by oneself, such as the speed of time passing, the control of one's own situation, and so on.

It can be said that before entering the spirit realm, Su Xiaoqi examined his mortal body mirror over and over again, and after making sure that there was no problem, he stepped on that staircase.

In addition, Su Xiaoqi felt that as long as he was willing, he could directly enter the Gathering Star Realm, which was the real Gathering Star Realm, not the pseudo-realm of "one thought according to God", but he didn't have it, he didn't dare.

This is because on the way to cultivation, any opportunistic shortcuts may suddenly become the biggest obstacle one day in the future, just like the situation seen in the secret realm of Qichao Mountain.

So at every step, he has to be down-to-earth, but also cautious, to make sure that there are no problems, and then make a breakthrough.

When Su Xiaoqi woke up, Yun Suyin said with a smile: "From mortal body to spirit body in two days, at your speed, I'm afraid it won't take you a few days to reach the real Zhaoshen realm." ”

Su Xiaoqi said bitterly: "But for me, just this realm is like cultivating for hundreds of years, and I have cultivated hundreds of times just for this mortal body mirror." ”

Yun Suyin rolled his eyes and said: "What, you are still not happy? This is a great opportunity that many people can't ask for by burning incense and worshiping the Buddha, believe it or not, as long as your situation is leaked out, there will definitely be a large number of strong people coming to you and asking you to hand over this 'supreme secret method'? At that time, they will not care if you are the seventh prince of the Huaxia Empire." ”

Su Xiaoqi was afraid for a while, nodded and said, "You have to pay attention." ”

Man dies for money, and birds die for food. In fact, it is the same in the cultivation world, but it has been replaced with a secret book of exercises, a magic weapon and an elixir.

Just imagine, if a person just sleeps, he can sleep a peerless powerhouse, who is not excited?

Yun Suyin asked, "Where can you go now?"

Su Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, but soon knew what Yun Suyin was referring to, so he replied: "Barely gather the star realm." ”

Yun Suyin thought for a moment, but didn't say anything, and smiled: "Go out for a walk? ”

Su Xiaoqi looked at the sky and asked, "How long have I been sleeping?"

Yun Suyin stretched out a white finger, "No more, no less, just one day and one night." ”

Su Xiaoqi nodded and said, "Let's go." ”

Yun Suyin said: "By the way, Steward Chu came once yesterday and said that everything has been arranged, just wait for the news from the Shendu." ”

Su Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed." In that case, let's go to the Sea Sand Gang?"

Yun Suyin was stunned, she originally wanted to go to the City God Temple to visit, and by the way, she asked for a sign, prayed for a smooth expedition, and prayed for Su Xiaoqi to be safe and sound, many women are like this, no matter how high the realm is and how strong the strength is, they all believe this.

Because they are willing to choose to believe.

But since Su Xiaoqi said so, she won't say anything, anyway, there is still time, just go once by herself one day, but in her heart, she can't help but feel a little lost.

Before he could reach the Haisha Gang, Su Xiaoqi stopped.

His eyes, looking somewhere next to the street.

An old man with a full head of hair was slowly drinking wine there.

This old man is wearing ordinary people's sackcloth, and his whole person is indeed like an ordinary old man, but the knife on his waist is not ordinary.

It was a specially made war knife in the army of the Chinese Empire.

This kind of combat knife is generally not allowed to leave the barracks, such as He Kuan's birthday banquet last time, no one can bring a sergeant out with a knife, unless he reaches the title of captain.

This kind of war knife can be said to be the only glory of every Chinese soldier.

As for why, the moment you grab the sword, you will understand.

Of course, there are no absolutes, and there are exceptions.

For example, some soldiers with outstanding military achievements can take a war knife with them when they leave the barracks as a reward for them by the Chinese army.

And anyone who dies under this sword dies in vain.

The old man in front of him, judging by his age, should have been discharged from the army, and he was also equipped with a war knife, which means that he had made great achievements in the army.

This is not what Su Xiaoqi cares about, what he cares about is such an old man, why is he a little sad at this moment?

So he walked up.

After Su Xiaoqi walked to his side, he clasped his fists and saluted: "Old man, can the junior sit here?"

The old man didn't speak, just nodded, then lifted the bowl and took a sip of wine.

After putting down the wine bowl, the old man raised his eyes and glanced at Su Xiaoqi, and asked, "Haven't you joined the army not long ago?"

Su Xiaoqi was stunned, nodded and said, "The old gentleman is really as wise as a torch." ”

The old man shook his head, picked up a bowl and asked, "Do you want to drink?"

Su Xiaoqi nodded, "Drink." ”

The old man handed the wine bowl to Su Xiaoqi, and then said: "It's that after staying in the barracks for a long time, I can feel the breath on every soldier." ”

Su Xiaoqi looked at the straw sandals on his feet, then poured himself a bowl of wine, and asked, "The old gentleman has walked a long way?"

The old man nodded, took another sip of wine, and just finished drinking the wine in the bowl, Yun Suyin poured him a bowl.

Su Xiaoqi was puzzled: "Since the old gentleman has already left the barracks, why did he suddenly come back?"

The old man picked up the wine bowl, put the wine bowl down when he heard this, and sighed, "Reluctantly." ”

He looked at Su Xiaoqi and asked, "Son's position in the army is not low, right?"

Su Xiaoqi was stunned, and then said with a smile: "Infantry military captain, the term of office is less than one month." ”

The old man hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stood up and knelt in front of Su Xiaoqi, "Please also ask the old man to give him a hand and let the old man return to the barracks." ”

Su Xiaoqi was startled, and hurriedly helped the old man up, "What is the old gentleman doing, please get up, please get up." ”

The old man had tears in his eyes, "If the son doesn't agree, the old man won't be able to get up." ”

Su Xiaoqi's brows furrowed even deeper, "What's the trouble of this old man, since he has left the barracks, isn't it good to return to his hometown and enjoy his old age and share the joy of family with his family?"

The old man shook his head and said, "It's time to fight, the old man has been hiding for twenty years, and he can't hide anymore." ”

Su Xiaoqi directly helped the old man up, and said, "If the old gentleman has anything to say, get up and say it slowly." ”

After the old man got up, he took off the war knife on his waist that represented the highest honor of the imperial soldier and put it on the table, "What does this knife represent, I believe Gongzi also understands." ”

Su Xiaoqi nodded to indicate that he understood.

The old man said, "But this honor should not be old, but my brother's." ”

Su Xiaoqi listened quietly, waiting for the old man to tell about those eventful years in the past.

But after the old man said this, he stopped talking.

Su Xiaoqi waited for a long time, and couldn't help asking, "What about him?"

The old man poured a big sip of wine this time before saying, "Dead." He died on this southern border, in my arms, and before he died, he pushed all the honor to me......"

The old man couldn't stop crying.

Su Xiaoqi lifted the wine bowl and drank the wine slowly.

After a long time, the old man stopped his tears and continued: "Twenty years, I have carried this honor and supported it for twenty years, and every time I see this knife, I think of that day. ”

Su Xiaoqi put down the wine bowl, "Why does the old gentleman want to return to the barracks now?"

The old man's eyes suddenly bloomed with a brilliance, and he looked a little excited, "I can feel it, it's going to be a big battle, so I want to return this honor to him." ”

Speaking of this, the old man began to take small sips of wine again, "He used to tell me, 'A veteran doesn't need others to remember his name, only the battlefield where he died. Recently, I realized that the best place for people like us to end up is the battlefield, and the only place to be on the battlefield. ”

Su Xiaoqi picked up the wine bowl, touched it with the old man, drank it in one go, and then asked: "The old gentleman thinks that it is better for those of us who are soldiers to die at the door of the house, or in a foreign country?"

The old man was stunned and looked at Su Xiaoqi, who was also looking at him.

The old man thought for a while and said, "Dead at the door of the house, become a ghost, and have a belonging, it won't float around, it doesn't look bad." ”

Su Xiaoqi frowned slightly.

The old man continued: "But it is better to die in a foreign land. ”

Su Xiaoqi was puzzled: "What do you say?"

The old man said with a smile: "What the son said, it is nothing more than a defense, an attack, the old man doesn't understand the art of war, but the old man knows that when he goes to the battlefield, he can only rush forward, and there is no reason to stop, because in that way, he will only die faster." If you have to die, the old man feels that everyone is willing to die on the way to the charge. ”

Su Xiaoqi poured himself a big bowl of wine, drank it all in one gulp, got up and bowed solemnly to the old man, "Thank you for the advice!"

The old man hurriedly got up and said, "It's just some wine talk, and the son doesn't need to be like this." ”

Su Xiaoqi had already turned around and left, and said at the same time: "The old gentleman can go to General Guo, the commander of the infantry army, and say that a captain named Su Xiaoqi will let you go." ”

After saying this, he stopped, but did not turn around, "And the old gentleman will definitely get what he wants." ”

The old man looked at the backs of the two of them, unable to return to his senses for a long time, and after a long time, he held the war knife in both hands and saluted the backs of the two, and at that time, he was already in tears.

This time, he came with the determination to die.

His greatest wish was to be able to die on the way to the charge.

If you can die a little farther, it will be better.

On the street, the old man looked up at the southern sky, and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
