Chapter 54: The Dark Moon

Mt. Baekdu, a wooden house on the top of the mountain.

"Childe."

"Xiao Zhen came to visit."

Xiao Luo gently pushed open the wooden door, walked into the wooden house, and whispered to him.

"Let him in."

Su Li put down the teacup in his hand, raised his head and spoke to him.

"Yes."

Xiao Luo turned around and retreated quickly, leading Xiao Zhen to come.

It didn't take long.

"Xiao Zhen has seen the Moonfall Prince."

"I haven't seen you for many days, don't come unharmed."

Xiao Zhen raised his feet and walked into the wooden house, hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted him.

"Sit."

"Xiaoluo, serve tea."

Stretching out his hand and pointing to the wooden chair on the side, Su Li said lightly and instructed Xiaoluo.

"Moonset."

"I don't know what Xiao mentioned before, how did you think about it?"

Xiao Zhen spoke out and asked him bluntly. Some time ago, he had personally visited the mountain several times, hoping that he could go out of the mountain to help him. But until now, I haven't waited for his affirmative answer.

"There is no need to mention this again."

"Don't let this incident affect the relationship between you and me."

Su Li waved his hand lightly and said to him refused. Let him help him? This is impossible.

"It's Xiao who took the liberty."

"I won't mention it again."

Xiao Zhen nodded lightly, indicating that he understood very much. In fact, I already knew in my heart that it was impossible for him to agree to him, but he was just unwilling. Seeing that what he said was so serious, if he brought it up again in the future, I am afraid that this white-headed mountain would also stop him.

"Xiao came this time to say goodbye to the moonfall son, I'm afraid that for a long time after that, I can't go up the mountain to visit, and I ask the moonfall boy to forgive me."

Xiao Zhen looked at him and said the purpose of his trip.

"Oh?"

"So it seems that Brother Xiao is going to travel far away?"

When Su Li heard this, he asked him directly.

"Not bad."

"Xiao was ordered, and he will be sent to Daqi soon."

Xiao Zhen nodded lightly and did not hide anything from him.

"Daqi?"

When Su Li heard this, he was a little stunned.

It seems like it's been a long time since I've heard the name.

This is a very familiar place for him.

From leaving Daqi to now, unconsciously, eight years have passed.

"Then I wish Brother Xiao a smooth journey in advance."

Su Li arched his hand and said to him.

"Thank you, Moonset."

*

"Xiaoluo, it's time for us to go back."

In front of the tombstone, Su Li stood in the wind and said to him lightly.

"Yes, everything is at the behest of the child."

Xiao Luo stood behind him and nodded slightly. He already knew in his heart that Childe would definitely have a glorious return. I just didn't expect that I had been waiting for this day for eight years.

"Let's go, come with me to the army and have a look."

Su Li turned around and left first, walking slowly towards the bottom of the mountain.

Xiaoluo followed closely behind him, not leaving an inch.

*

Three days later, in the midst of a dense forest, there was a very secret place.

As far as the eye can see, a military village is located in it.

Countless military tents were continuous, and the sound of shouting and killing came, and the murderous aura was pervasive in the sky.

"Yes, it finally has the appearance of the pioneer black battalion."

Outside the military village, Su Li stared inward, nodded slightly, and said in admiration.

"I've seen all of them."

In front of the gate of the military village, several soldiers guarding here saw Su Li and the others coming, and hurriedly ran forward to salute him with fists.

"No courtesy."

Su Li waved his hand lightly, looking very casual. The guards at the gate are all strong and strong, and the combat strength of this battalion of soldiers and horses must be extraordinary.

"Take me to the camp tent of the deputy capital of Qin."

Su Li walked inside first, and opened his mouth to the soldiers on the side and instructed.

"Command."

A soldier hurriedly followed him and led Su Li forward.

"Qin Shi has seen Dutong."

Seeing Su Li enter the big tent of the Chinese army, Qin Shi hurriedly got up and saluted him with his fists.

"Excuse me."

"Deputy Commander Qin, mention and prepare."

"It's time for the camp to get out of here."

Su Li sat down lightly and instructed him.

"Dutong, where are you going?"

When Qin Shi heard this, he clasped his fists and asked him bluntly.

"I have other things to do."

"You personally lead the army, and return to Daqi for the time being."

"Later."

"The name of the pioneer black camp can no longer be used."

"Do you have the right one in your heart?"

Su Li looked at Qin Shi and asked him.

"Return to the capital."

"Darkmoonguard, what do you think?"

In fact, in his heart, he had already thought of a new name. It's just that Su Li hasn't spoken, and it's inconvenient for him to raise it first. Seeing him open his mouth now, Qin Shi blurted out in an instant. This name has been weighing in his heart for a long time.

"Darkmoon Guard?"

"That's a good name."

Su Li pondered for a moment and nodded slightly. This name, his heart is very satisfied.

"By the way, what about the families of the soldiers in the army?"

At the beginning, when the pioneer black battalion fled from Southern Chu, the relatives of all the soldiers also moved to the territory of Daqi with their families, in case Southern Chu forced them.

"All the families of the soldiers of the Dark Moon Guard have moved to Daqi Jiaoao, where there is still the sea on three sides, and it can be attacked and defended. When you can't do anything, you can evacuate at any time. ”

Qin Shi explained to him a little, he really racked his brains for this matter.

"That's good."

"Only when the family is safe can there be no worries."

"Since they choose to follow me, I will do everything in my power to convince them that their choice is worth it."

When Su Li heard this, he said to him with emotion.

"All are wise."

Hearing this, Qin Shi nodded and said in agreement.

"Let's get ready."

"After some time, I will go directly to the sea from Liaodong County in batches."

"Stationed in Jiaoao first."

"If necessary, I will send you a message."

Su Li pondered for a moment and instructed him.

"Mark and command."

"By the way, a letter came from Qingzhou a few days ago."

"There's a strange thing, please decide everything."

Qin Shi seemed to suddenly remember something, and spoke. He took out a letter and handed it to Su Li.

"Oh?"

Su Li took the letter in his hand, took out the letter paper, and began to read it carefully.

"During the Qingming Festival, a woman went up the mountain to worship the Duke of Dingguo."

"The woman has never shown up, I don't know what her identity is?"

Reading the content of the letter, Su Li frowned slightly.

"Woman?"

"Who could she be?"

Su Li thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure out who she was?

*

A few days later.

The top of Baitou Mountain, in front of Sun Xiyue's tomb.

Su Li stood at the front first, and Xiao Luo and Qin Shi stood on either side of his body.

Behind them, sixteen people stood in a row, their faces solemn.

These are the sixteen minor commanders of the Darkmoon Guard. Now the Dark Moon Guard has restored its 8,000 establishment, and each of them has 500 soldiers under his command.

Although these sixteen small commanders are over thirty years old, they all followed Prince Kang to fight in the south and the north, and each of them has made great achievements.

At this moment, each of them is holding a bowl of water and wine in their hands.

"Xiyue, wait for me to come back."

With a bit of reluctance, Su Li drank all the wine in his hand.

"Qin Shi, let's go."

Su Li let out a loud shout and gave him an order.

"Command."

Qin Shi turned around and turned around and left quickly with all the little capitals.

At the top of the mountain, it was quiet again, except for the howling of the north wind.

"Xiaoluo, let's go too."

He and Xiaoluo will ride a horse by land.

At the foot of the mountain, Su Li straddled steadily on his horse.

"Daqi, I'm back."

The snow and ice on the road have begun to melt.

"Drive."

The whip in his hand fell, galloping away.

The further south you go,

I feel the spring flowers blooming more and more.
