Chapter 35: Return to the Dragon Palace

At midnight, dark clouds covered the sun, and I couldn't see my five fingers, and I couldn't see the southwest corner of the training ground of the big camp in the West Sea border area.

A man with a thin body, a sallow complexion, and sparse eyebrows, holding a barbed silver whip, kept pacing back and forth, his face full of arrogance and anger, and kneeling in front of him more than a dozen burly rhinoceros soldiers.

"You shit, useless dogs!" the man scolded.

"A simple flank interspersed with roundabout tactics, practiced for almost ten days, just because of a few of you, the formation is chaotic again!"

"We didn't hear the order!" a rhinoceros soldier in his early twenties raised his head and glared angrily, and the middle-aged rhinoceros soldier on the left had reached out and gently tugged at the hem of his clothes, still unable to stop this long-suppressed emotion.

"Smack!" When the man with the sudden eyes heard this, he was furious, and raised his hand to whip it, directly on the left cheek of the vocal rhinoceros soldier, and a bright red mouth exploded, and blood overflowed.

"Dare to talk back!" The man with the protruding eyes was still unsatisfied, and he stepped in front of the other party, and one of them kicked him to the ground and stepped on his head.

"I think General Xi has a strong martial arts and a way of training, it's really a mess!"

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the kneeling rhinoceros soldiers raised their heads, their eyes burning with anger.

"You don't deserve to judge General West!" a young man kneeling on the westernmost side mustered up his courage and spat out these words.

"Presumptuous!" The man with sudden eyes burst into muscles, shook his silver whip and swirled around, whistling towards the young man's face on the west side.

When the young man on the west side saw the whip, he didn't dare to dodge, closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, tensed his muscles, and prepared to fight hard.

With a bang, the long whip did not reach his face, and the young man opened his eyes to see that a handsome young man with a long figure had come behind him at some point, and stretched out his left hand to easily hold the long whip.

"General!" everyone kneeling on the ground said in unison, their eyes welling up with excitement.

"Everyone's worked hard, get up. Xi Xiao looked at the tired crowd, and his heart was very uncomfortable.

"Get down on your knees!" shouted the eye-piercing youth.

All the rhinoceros soldiers turned a deaf ear, and they all stood up and walked behind Xi Xiao.

"General Xi, you have been promoted to the commander of the cavalry battalion, directly under the command of the commander, although these soldiers are your old troops, but now under my control, you have no right to give orders to my soldiers. ”

The young man with the sudden eyes was full of displeasure: "If I tell the commander about this, I don't think it will do you any good General Xi." ”

"What do you mean?" said Xi Xiao expressionlessly.

"Please also ask General Xi not to interfere. The eye-popping young man barely squeezed out a smile, after all, the person standing opposite the person broke out in the life-and-death duel of the five, and the amazing combat power that broke out was obvious to all.

"Really?" Before the words fell, Xi Xiao's left hand suddenly exerted force.

Seeing that the other party was not in trouble, the young man with sudden eyes was trying to organize the language and put a high hat on the other party, and when there was a step down from each other, a huge force suddenly came, and his body couldn't help but fly forward.

When the other party was dragged in front of him, Xi Xiao stretched out his right hand and tightly clamped the opponent's neck. "Promise me to be kind to my soldiers. Xixiao's tone was still unhurried and light.

The young man with the sudden eyes was not so calm, Xi Xiao's right hand was like a pair of pliers made of stainless steel, holding himself tightly, breathing became extremely difficult, and his face showed a look of horror and anger.

The protruding-eyed young man stretched out his hands, wrapped his arms around Xi Xiao's forearm, and tried to break free with his internal force, but as soon as he exerted his strength, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and the opponent's right arm did not move at all.

"You.. This is.. The crime of killing robes is a capital offense.." The sharp-eyed young man struggled to spit out a few words, and strict military discipline was his last reliance.

"You really didn't answer what you asked!" A cold light flashed in Xi Xiao's eyes, and his right hand tightened: "I'll ask you one last time! Did you hear that?!"

The man with the protruding eyes completely fell into despair, thinking that when it came to military discipline, the other party would be jealous, but it was self-defeating, completely angering the other party, the muscles and bones in the neck have been squeezed together, the pain in the cervical spine is not comparable, and the head is also like a pinprick pain.

“.. Okay.." The anger in the bulging man's eyes turned to a look of pleading. Replied with difficulty.

Xi Xiao let go of his hand, and the man with the protruding eyes became weak with his legs, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and his whole body sweated profusely, and his eyes became hollow and dull.

"Take care, everyone!" Xi Xiao glanced at the rhinoceros soldiers behind him, and disappeared into the night in a few steps.

"Take care, General!" the soldiers said.

"The battle in the border region is just a battle for the interests of the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas, so why sacrifice these innocent people." Xi Xiao is extremely eager to bring all the old departments back and stay away from the meaningless disputes in the borderlands.

It's a pity that Xiao can't do it! because he's not strong enough!

On the second day, Xilong Lu invited Xixiao, and the two began to set off to return to the Dragon Palace.

As soon as he arrived at the West Gate, he saw Song Qiyi waiting in front of the door, Laxi Xiao stepped aside, and the two began to whisper affectionately.

"Are you going to go?!" shouted Nishitaki dissatisfiedly after half an hour.

"Wait a minute. Xi Xiao smiled apologetically.

Say it's a moment, and wait for it to be tea time.

"I don't understand, how could Song Meiren fall in love with you??" Halfway through, Nishitaki Luo was puzzled: "In terms of appearance, I'm not more handsome than you?!"

"Kiyi told me that she doesn't like to be white." Xi Xiao quipped.

"Tsk, what a hardcore woman.." Nishitaki shook his head with a look of disdain.

After more than half a month, the two returned to the Dragon Palace, and the guard officer in front of the door informed the two that when all the princes and generals returned to the Dragon Palace, they would gather everyone again, and they could move freely during the period, but they were not allowed to step out of the Dragon Palace for half a step.

"Don't leave it at that!" Coming to the outer hall, Xi Xiao went back to the courtyard where he lived.

"Okay, I'll go visit the Queen Mother. Nishitakakira walked in the direction of the inner sanctum.

Back in the courtyard, Xi Xiao saw that his bedroom was still clean and tidy, and in the border area for nearly twenty years, the old housekeeper of the seahorse seemed to be a little older, and his back began to be rickety, but he still took the maid to clean the room inside and out every day.

Xi Xiao bathed and changed clothes, changed into a clean gray robe, and then went to visit his teacher.

Because he knows that when he sees himself unkempt, the teacher will probably start nagging again.

Xi Xiao came to the incomparably familiar Wangzhu Courtyard, and couldn't help but be a little faster, stepping into the familiar quiet courtyard, but saw that the courtyard was empty.

"Honorable!" Xi Xiao shouted.

"Why did it fail again?" A low, old voice came, "Boy, get here!"

Xi Xiao followed the sound, came to the leftmost wing of the courtyard, pushed the door in, and did not see the honorable award.

"Get down!" The Honorable Speaker spoke again.

Xi Xiao walked to the south corner of the wall, and saw that there was a high-grade bloodwood cellar door on the ground, so he opened the cellar door and walked in.

I saw that the cellar covers an area of about three points, and the wall is piled up by deep sea stones, and some night pearls are embedded sporadically, and you can barely see the whole picture of the cellar.

In the middle of the cellar, there is a pale golden furnace carved with patterns, in the shape of a toad, and the abdomen is stained with rust, which is a little old.

The crimson flames in the dingzhong were thriving, and a trace of green smoke floated up.

A capable old man with white hair, dressed in a gray robe, sat on the ground with his back to Xi Xiao, staring at the fire in a daze, with some herbs and small porcelain vases of various colors beside him.

"How can you fail?" the old man shook his head, and then turned around with a kind smile.

"I haven't seen you for twenty years, and you've finally grown into an adult. ”

"Honorable, are you okay?" Seeing that the old man was a little older again, Xi Xiao felt both cordial and a little embarrassed.

"The Dou Zhuan Life Continuation Pill I refined has failed for the seventh time. Venerable looked at Xi Xiao and suddenly had an idea, "Why don't you try?"

"I'm not untouched by alchemy. Xi Xiao shook his head.

"You always surprise me. The honorable professor smiled and groaned: "I hope to come back this time, it will still be the same." ”

couldn't help but say, so he stuffed a silver-gray Danfang to Xi Xiao.

"Okay. I'll try. Xi Xiao picked up the Danfang and read it seriously word by word.

After a cup of tea, Xi Xiao raised his head and returned Danfang to the teacher standing on the side.
