Chapter 72: The Snow King's Army
"Master Lu, something is wrong, a group of troops have come from outside, and now they are rushing towards us. ”
A black-clothed servant hurriedly ran into the Lu Mansion, Master Lu and Huang Jin were discussing matters related to the departure of Qingzong in the front hall, and suddenly heard the panicked voice of the servant outside.
"What's going on, say it slowly. Huang Jin knew this subordinate and said directly.
"A group of soldiers and horses came outside, about a thousand people, white armor and blue flags, all of them were in a state of vision. ”
"White armor and blue flag... Could it be... "Snow King Army?" Huang Jin looked at Master Lu and said, "The Snow King Snow River Army and Qin Renmin are known as brothers, and the ancestors have a great relationship with Qin Tianxia, is this time to take advantage of the fire to rob?"
Old Master Lu shook his head and said, "If you want to take advantage of the fire to rob, unless the Snow River Army comes in person, I haven't noticed his aura at the moment, and there are thousands of people, and the number is not enough." ”
Master Lu looked at the servant Xiao Hei and asked, "Where are they now?"
"Just entered the mouth of the gourd. ”
"Huang Jin, come out with me to have a look. ”
And Doctor Du, who had just walked out of the small attic, heard Master Lu's voice in his ears.
"Doctor Du, come to the city gate, we have guests coming. ”
Doctor Du was stunned for a moment, then jumped on the roof and ran quickly in the direction of the city gate.
On the roof of the house in the distance, you can see a long line of white centaurs at the narrow intersection, they are not as murderous as the Four Elephant Army of the Qin State, but they give people a feeling of being cold from head to toe.
"Teacher, Brother Huang, just the two of you?" Doctor Du asked suspiciously when he saw the two people standing at the entrance of the street below.
Master Lu beckoned and said, "The other side is not menacing, you and I can come." ”
Du Yi fixed his eyes and went, and sure enough, the soldiers and horses on the opposite side stopped at the mouth of the mountain gorge, and did not take a step forward, only to see two people turn over and dismount and walk this way.
A young man, dressed in blue and white light armor, although he was dressed as a soldier, his hair was combed into a scholar's crown, with a faint smile on his face, and a hint of coldness in his confidence.
The other is an eight- or nine-year-old child, innocent and harmless, looking left and right on the way, like a curious baby.
"Xue Taixian, then this team of soldiers is the Snow King's soldiers? It seems that the Snow King's subordinates are very powerful, not much different from the Four Elephant Army of the Qin State. Doctor Du's tone was a little surprised.
"Do you know Xue Taixian?" asked Master Lu.
"I met in the capital at the beginning, I was the champion of that year, and he was the leader. ”
"Haha, it's good that your kid was able to beat him at the beginning. Master Lu whispered a few words, and continued, "Xue Taixian, this little guy is very good, both civil and military, the dragon and phoenix among the people, he is talking about him, in recent years, he has a high prestige among the people, he has a lot of means to govern the country and the people, and his cultivation talent is one in a hundred." ”
"If he is not surnamed Xue, but surnamed Qin, then Qin Renmin will wake up laughing when he dreams, and it is estimated that even Qin Tianxia will run out and show his face. ”
Hearing such a high evaluation from the teacher, Du Yi couldn't help but look sideways and asked, "According to what the teacher said, it was thanks to his surname Xue at the beginning, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to take my turn as the champion?"
"That's natural, it's a pity, after all, his surname is Xue and not Qin, such a talent, if you can't get it, it's better to ruin it. ”
"The consistent style of the Qin State. ”
"It's good for us. ”
Master Lu and Doctor Du looked at each other and smiled.
Xue Taixian and the child were not fast, and after Du Yi and Master Lu talked for several minutes, the two of them walked to the city gate.
"Teacher Lu, student Xue Taixian greets, how are you today?"
Xue Taixian respectfully performed a student salute, his movements and expressions were meticulous, and the number of etiquette was just right and appropriate.
The child next to him unceremoniously stretched out his immature little hand, pointed at Master Lu and said, "Lu Chengfei, I heard that you have cultivated two ways, can you give me some insight and knowledge?"
Huang Jin and Doctor Du were both laughing and laughing, but Master Lu smiled and did not speak, not angry in the face of the child's unscrupulousness, but focused on the child with deep eyes.
Xue Taixian hurriedly pulled back the child's little hand and said, "Teacher Lu, my cousin is still young and has no mouth to hide, so don't blame me." ”
Master Lu shook his head with a smile, and said, "I see that you have cold bones on your forehead, you can guard the spiritual platform, cultivate your body and spirit, and you are the seventh layer of the Xuanfu at a young age, and you must be the youngest disciple of the Snow Cave Cave Master - Cold Heart." ”
"Lu Chengfei, do you know me?" said the child in slight surprise.
"The Lord of the Snow Cave is the Yin and Yang Realm, and he is famous in the Qin Desolate Continent, and the closed disciples he accepted seven years ago are chilling, and no one must not know. ”
"Hehe, count your old man as acquaintances. The child said triumphantly.
Xue Taixian knocked the child on the head and said, "Don't be rude, if your senior brother is here, he will teach you a lesson." ”
When the child heard the three words of the elder brother, he suddenly lost his temper, covered his head and stopped talking.
"Teacher Lu, let you smile, a small gift, not a tribute. Xue Taixian arched his hand and took out a black stone half the size of a palm from his cuff.
Master Lu's eyes lit up, he took the black stone, and said with a smile, "It's ambergris, not bad." ”
"My old man bought it last month, and he doesn't like to dance with pen and ink, so I watched and got it for you. ”
"That's not it, if you let Xue Hejun use it to write, wouldn't it be a waste of this good ink?" Master Lu touched the graphite and received it in the storage ring.
Xue Taixian nodded in agreement, daring to shout out the three words of the Snow River Army loudly, he didn't count his hands on the Qin Desolate Continent, and the old man Lu in front of him was one of them.
"Taixian, what are you doing when you came to Dinghai today? Wouldn't it be just to give me a piece of ink stone?" Master Lu walked inside first, then Xue Taixian followed, then the child followed Xue Taixian, and Du Yi and Huang Jin walked behind.
"Speaking of which, it's all my cousin's fault, I wanted to lead a thousand fast cavalry to help you in the sea area, but it's a pity that my cousin is greedy for fun, and he delayed time on the way, so I didn't wait for you to finish fighting, I arrived, I'm really ashamed. ”
The child snorted coldly on the side, pursed his lips in displeasure, and said, "The most annoying thing is that you talk like this, it's uncomfortable to listen to, I'm going to play alone, there must be a lot of fun in Dinghai, right?"
Xue Taixian suddenly said angrily, "The loss of the Dinghai area is serious, and now many places are being rebuilt, what's the fun?"
"It's not that you said that there are many treasures in the sea, but on my aunt's birthday in a few days, I have to prepare some things. The child shook the jasper ring on his wrist and said, "I have a lot of money with me, so I came here to buy treasures." ”
Master Lu said, "Huang Jin, take the cold-hearted boy to Dinghai for a walk, remember, so everything is half folded." ”
"You're still polite, old man, not like this stingy ghost. The child stuck out his tongue at Xue Tae-hyun and happily ran in the opposite direction.
Huang Jin was just about to follow, but was stopped by Doctor Du.
Doctor Du said, "I'll go, you can accompany the teacher here." ”
Xue Tae-hyun smiled and said, "Brother Peach, I'm sorry for you." ”
Du Yi and Xue Taixian glanced at each other and nodded to each other.
Doctor Du's voice has changed a lot from before, and his temperament has also changed, and it is unlikely that Xue Taehyun will connect the former champion with today's Mr. Momo.
Speaking of which, Doctor Du still remembers that when they met for the first time, Xue Taixian invited him to Xuefu for a gathering, and now it seems that it is probably to give Doctor Du a disadvantage.
But the people of Mucheng died, and the name Du Yi disappeared from the world, even if Du Yi himself mentioned this name, Xue Taixian would not remember it.
didn't have more face-to-face with Xue Taixian, Doctor Du turned left and right, and saw the figure of the child on the street, and silently followed behind.
"Eh, why are you? I thought I had dumped that person, but you came. Hanxin saw Doctor Du behind his buttocks, and said with a slightly depressed expression.
Doctor Du was speechless, and said, "What do you want to do alone?" The strength of the seventh layer of the Xuanfu Mansion, many of them are mortals, and they can't withstand a few tosses from you. ”
Cold-hearted and irritable, he plucked his ears and said, "Okay, don't look at my young age, but my knowledge is not small, how can I not get along with ordinary people, I don't have that kind of child's mind." ”
The immature face and short hands and feet, but the movements are very adult-like, which makes people feel very funny.
Hanxin walked and stopped on the road, sometimes staying in front of the construction of the attic, watching the workers beating for more than ten minutes, Du Yi followed him, until after shopping for an hour, Hanxin yawned boredly, and sat on the stone pier on the side of the road.
"It's so boring here, it's all about repairs, isn't there anything fun?"
"Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, what do you want to play?" Du Yi asked rhetorically.
"Just eat and drink, sir, I'm tired of eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, prostitution... If Master finds out, I will definitely peel off my skin and bet on a few games. "Stars twinkle in my chilling eyes.
Doctor Du also did what he said, and directly led Hanxin to a small open-air gambling house in the west.
A few pieces of yellow wood are placed around, and in the middle are placed a few simple large tables, with dice betting on the size and number of stones, and there is a large table with a rooster fight.
Originally, it was a gambling house, and the workers dug out a few tables and dice from the ruins to start this humble gambling activity.
It can be regarded as relaxing after the war, Zhu Hong and others did not restrain these, and I often come here to gamble.
No, as soon as Doctor Du arrived here, he saw the fat figure and Qianyi holding an umbrella to shade the sun.
"Fighting cocks, interesting. Hanxin saw two roosters spreading their wings and pecking at each other on the table around them, and he was immediately interested.
As soon as he stepped over, he was angrily said by a big man, "Where did the little kid come from, dare to squeeze the master's seat?"
As soon as the words fell, Han Xin stepped out of the ice cube, and the sharp ice tip was about to pierce the chest of the big man in front of him.
Doctor Du shook his head, and bent his fingers to pop out three poisonous shadow needles, shattering the ice ling.
Zhu Hong was on a table next to him, and when he saw this, he immediately rushed over, slapped the man in the face, and said angrily, "What is not long-eyed, don't make amends to the adult!"
When the man saw Doctor Du wearing a mask, he immediately knelt down tremblingly, his whole body couldn't stop trembling, and he almost didn't come out of pain, "Big... Adults, small ones have eyes but no beads, and hope that adults will forgive their sins. ”
Doctor Du walked up to Hanxin and said, "You should make amends to this little boy." ”
The man looked at it with a chill, and immediately kowtowed a few times, and his scalp was bleeding, "This little boy, I offended you just now, and I slapped my own mouth." ”
There were a few snaps, and he didn't show any mercy to himself.
Han Xin turned his head sideways and looked at Doctor Du and said, "You are really a good person." ”
Doctor Du shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's just more atmospheric than you." ”
"Cut, pretend. He pouted his lips in disdain, and then asked the man, "You said these two roosters, who wins and who loses?"
“.... It's the one with a red tail, it's strong, it's fierce, and it usually pecks at people a few times. ”
"Okay, I'll buy that red rooster. With a cold smile, he took out a gold brick and put it on the table with a snap.
