Chapter 1089: The Affair of the Blue Army
"It's not too early, let's tell Lin Feng the good news as soon as possible, and then let's go back and let Lin Feng have a good rest. ”
"En," Seeing that what Chen Wenhao said was reasonable, Chen Wenyu immediately agreed.
"Thank you," At this moment, what everyone didn't expect was that Lin Xuanzhong suddenly appeared at the door and thanked them.
"Lin Feng, did you hear it?" Seeing that it was Lin Xuanzhong coming, Chen Wenyu asked happily.
"Well, I will prepare well for the competition the day after tomorrow, don't worry. ”
"Okay, I'll take Wen Yu and them to go first, the things that the house sent to you today are all on the table, you can see for yourself," put aside some doubts, Chen Wenhao will take Chen Wenyu and the others away.
"Okay," agreed, Lin Xuanzhong looked over a few people and looked at the table, a sword and several medicine bottles appeared in sight one after another.
"Have a good rest," Chen Wenyu and the others left a sentence each, and in a blink of an eye, they all left.
"Xiangqiao, you go get some food and come back, remember to get more wine," after what happened just now, it was more and more unpleasant to stay in the Chen family, although it was already felt that the Chen family was not malicious, but there were many things that did not go well.
"Wait a minute, my lord, I'll go," Xiangqiao, who was guarding the side, agreed, and then turned to leave.
As soon as Xiangqiao left, Lin Xuanzhong walked to the table and sat down. There was still a trace of residual heat on the chair, but it couldn't stop the cold of late autumn. The leaves in the yard had turned yellow, and when the wind blew, a few fell with a bang. Looking at the things on the table again, the names written on the three medicine bottles of Buyuan Dan, Condensing Pill, and Blood Condensation Pill came into view one by one, and they were opened one after another, and the fragrance was pleasant.
Taking a second look at that sword, it seemed to be comparable to Chen Wenhao's sword. These are all things sent by the Chen Mansion, and each of them is very practical. Chen Mansion's gift made him grateful, but it was a pity that Lin Xuanzhong understood that all this had a deep meaning.
After putting down the sword, while thinking about some things, he waited for Xiangqiao to come back, and before he knew it, it was dark.
"My lord, dinner is here," Not long after Lin Xuanzhong lit an oil lamp, Xiangqiao came in with a bamboo basket.
"You can sit down and eat with me tonight," Without thinking too much, Lin Xuanzhong just said in a calm tone.
"But my lord, Xiangqiao doesn't know how to drink," when Lin Xuanzhong asked him to bring back an extra pair of chopsticks before, Xiangqiao guessed that Lin Xuanzhong might ask him to accompany him to dinner, and now when Lin Xuanzhong said it himself, Xiangqiao was not surprised.
"It's okay, just sit down and eat with me," an unspeakable sense of loneliness eroded Lin Xuanzhong's will, making Lin Xuanzhong's mood become melancholy.
"Okay lord, then Xiangqiao will pour you a bar," I don't know what's going on, the more Xiangqiao looks at Lin Xuanzhong, the more strange it feels. It was so unthinkable before, but now it's so approachable and unique. In Xiangqiao's eyes, the current Lin Xuanzhong seems to have changed as a person.
"My lord has something on his mind?" Seeing Lin Xuanzhong drink a few glasses of wine in succession, Xiangqiao found that Lin Xuanzhong seemed to have something on his mind.
"Xiangqiao, you were originally from Divine Sword City?" Without nodding or shaking his head, Lin Xuanzhong just wanted to simply say something to Xiangqiao.
"Lord Hui, Xiangqiao was originally born in a peasant household outside Shenjian City. ”
"Then why did you work as a servant in the Chen family?"
"Because of the war, everybody is looking for asylum. It just so happened that one day the Chen family wanted to choose a servant, and Xiangqiao was chosen. ”
"But this Chen family's maid doesn't seem to be easy to do?" Thinking that Xiaoqing and Xiaolan still had to cater to some of the needs of their masters, Lin Xuanzhong sighed sincerely.
"For the sake of the family's well-being, it is worth it for Xiangqiao to endure some hardships. ”
"Where's your family?"
"Working in one of the Chen family's mines, although the pay is not much, the Chen family will ensure their safety. If Xiangqiao can perform well in the Chen family, she can also make my father and mother live a better life with my brother, and maybe I can also find a future for my brother. ”
"Don't you want to live a free life?"
"Freedom can only be regarded as a luxury for a weak woman like Xiangqiao, who was born poor and has not good qualifications, and Xiangqiao doesn't dare to think about it. ”
"Then do you have any wishes?" Xiang Qiao's answer completely presented a helpless situation as a weak person, which made Lin Xuanzhong feel a lot.
"Of course, I hope that the war will end soon, so that our family can go back to our old village and no longer have to worry about the danger that may come at any time. There is no need to think about it at all, Xiangqiao directly said a good wish that is unattainable. In other words, Lin Xuanzhong would definitely not be able to answer so smoothly.
Considering that this war would not end so simply, Xiangqiao might have to stay in the Chen family all the time, and for a while, Lin Xuanzhong didn't know how to answer.
"My lord, what is your wish?" Without waiting for Lin Xuanzhong to speak, Xiangqiao, who seemed to be used to talking to Lin Xuanzhong like this, took the initiative to ask Lin Xuanzhong.
"My wish is to become stronger," After a while, Lin Xuanzhong faintly understood what to do in the future, and this concept became clearer and clearer, that is, to become stronger.
It's just that because he has no interest in fame and fortune, Lin Xuanzhong feels that he can't just want to earn more honors for the family and live for the family like Chen Wenhao and others. Even if he won the first place in this competition, no one could share that pride with him, after all, there was no one here to lose, thinking of the end, Lin Xuanzhong only felt that he was different from everyone here.
"With the talent of adults, they will be able to reach the peak on the road of martial arts, and Xiangqiao wishes them all the best as soon as possible. ”
Lin Xuanzhong's wish can be said to be a common wish of everyone in the world, but Lin Xuanzhong's words make people feel special after all, because in Xiangqiao's eyes, the current Lin Xuanzhong is strong enough.
"En," he agreed softly, and Lin Xuanzhong's mind gradually blurred about the wish he had just thought of, and finally made that wish a thought of the past.
After a few glasses of wine, Lin Xuanzhong's consciousness gradually blurred, but his thoughts slowly drifted into the distance. Thinking back to the original plan not to return to the barracks, and then thinking about the experience during this time, the hardships are indescribable.
"My lord, do you already have a sweetheart?" After being silent for a long time, Xiang Qiao suddenly had many thoughts in her heart after making sure that Lin Xuanzhong had only now shown her truest side.
"How do you know?"
"Because during the day, you didn't even look at Princess Yanhong, if you don't already have a sweetheart, how can you do it?"
"It's just that I don't want to see her, and it doesn't have much to do with whether I have a crush or not. ”
"I believe that the sweetheart of adults must be very beautiful, right?"
"So to speak. ”
"Then why don't you stay with your sweetheart?"
"I can't answer that question. "Whether it is hating the past or avoiding the past, it can actually be regarded as an escape, of course, it can also be said to be a cocoon and self-restraint, but how to tell outsiders about this? Thinking that Lin Xuanzhong drank another glass of wine, and in the blink of an eye, there was not much left in a pot of wine.
"Xiangqiao, you eat more, and then rest early, I'll sit outside for a while," carrying the remaining small half pot of wine walked to the steps of the door and sat down, looking at the starry sky, Lin Xuanzhong's thoughts were flying, and he thought of many things for a while.
The more he drank, the less he drank, but the more and more sorrowful, in desperation, Lin Xuanzhong practiced physical skills in the courtyard, and regarded practice as a way to dispel his sorrows.
On the other side, when Lin Xuanzhong went out, Xiangqiao didn't know what to say, but felt that because of a conversation between the two, Lin Xuanzhong's heart was a lot worse. After eating, after cleaning up his things, Xiangqiao was waiting for Lin Xuanzhong to stop.
The moonlight is like water, faint and cool, the moonlight in autumn is always exceptionally bright, and without a lamp, Xiangqiao can also see Lin Xuanzhong's heavy movements.
"Xiangqiao, why haven't you rested?" An hour later, Lin Xuanzhong, who was about to use up all his strength, stopped. A gust of wind blew, and the slightest coolness invaded, and Lin Xuanzhong's whole person was much more sober, and it was at this time that Lin Xuanzhong noticed that there was a shadow curled up at the door, and it was Xiangqiao at a glance. Thinking that Xiangqiao might be cold sitting outside, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't help but care.
"Xiangqiao wants to wait for the adults to rest. ”
"No, you can rest early, I have to wait for a while," For Xiangqiao, Lin Xuanzhong didn't have no ideas, but he didn't dare to think about those men and women, because when he thought of that kind of thing, he felt like betraying Ruan Ming.
"Then the adults should rest early," After eating a meal together, Xiang Qiao could be sure that Lin Xuanzhong did have an approachable side, but the tone of his voice now gave him a feeling that he couldn't get close. After responding, Xiangqiao went back to her room to rest.
After Xiangqiao left, Lin Xuanzhong sat in front of the steps and rested for a while, his eyes looking straight to the northwest.
Thousands of miles away, in the Blue Army camp, many people have been waiting for Lin Xuanzhong's news for a while now. By tonight, Yang Shifeng, who had been transferred outside to find Lin Xuanzhong, had been transferred back by Bai Shuilian, and he didn't bring back any morale-boosting news.
At this moment, in Xue Yin's tent, Zhang Jiutian, Yang Shifeng, and Hong Yu were standing side by side, and in front of them was Xue Yin, who looked a little excited.
"Why can't I find the general for so many days?" Before Yang Shifeng returned to the barracks, Xue Yin knew that Yang Shifeng had not found Lin Xuanzhong, but Xue Yin wanted to know the reason.
"Returning to the Great Pharmacist, the last general only heard that the person named Lin Feng had entered the Poison Dragon Ridge and was currently missing. ”
"What kind of place is Poison Dragon Ridge, why don't you continue to send people to find it?"
"Poison Dragon Ridge is a dangerous place in the country, surrounded by poisonous barriers, and there is a huge fierce beast inside, it is rumored that the people who go there are dead or alive, and they will not be able to bring people in to find it. "She
