Chapter 146: The benefits are left behind
Along the way, Xingyu and Xinghui were much more happy, thinking that it was because they felt that Ding Zhuqiang had a good character and a charming personality, so they were extremely polite.
The city lord of Aoxing City only watched coldly, although he was not friendly to Ding Zhuqiang, it was inconvenient to offend, just because he thought that the situation in Aoxing City was critical.
It was like an arrow, so that the lord of Aoxing City did not stop, and he was ordered to march at an extremely fast pace, and rushed back to Aoxing City before the sun set.
Hearing the news of the city lord's return to the city, the soldiers and civilians of Aoxing City welcomed them, and although they had experienced a lot of war, they were still happy.
"Alas!"
This time when he returned to the city, the city lord of Aoxing felt a lot of emotion, especially when he saw the orphans and widows who greeted him along the streets in the city, the old, weak, sick and disabled with tears in their eyes, but he also regretted it.
"Yu'er, then it's up to you to take care of the Eight Desolations City Lord! Grandpa still has a lot of things to do. ”
As soon as he returned to the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord of Aoxing unceremoniously put Ding Zhuqiang aside first.
"Oh!"
Xingyu pouted and agreed.
"Aoxing City Lord, I hope that after you are done, don't forget to come to me before dark. ”
Ding Zhuqiang knew in his heart, and after saying this, he didn't look back, turned around and left.
"Hmph!" Ao Xing City Lord is so cunning and cunning, after snorting coldly, he didn't say anything, and said angrily: "Xingyu is not going to send the Eight Desolation City Lord to rest soon." ”
"Yes. But seeing that his grandfather was angry, Xingyu didn't dare to take it lightly, and hurriedly bowed down and nodded, and immediately led the way and said, "Please come with me." ”
"There's Miss Lao. ”
Ding Zhuqiang didn't seem to be at ease at this, and he walked away. Xinghui, who was watching from the side, and the people of Xing City, including Commander Lei, were dumbfounded, and they really didn't know why this Eight Desolation City Lord was so fearless?
"You're really, even if I'm in trouble in Ao Star City right now, you shouldn't talk to my grandfather like this!"
However, he didn't listen, and as he left the hall of the mansion and entered a remote and quiet courtyard, Xingyu complained.
"Hehe......" When Ding Zhuqiang heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "If it weren't for the trouble in your Aoxing City, do you think I would have the audacity to come to your Aoxing City to travel?"
"What?" Xingyu was obviously puzzled, frowning at the braided young man with a unique image in front of him, and asked after a moment of unspeakable hesitation: "I don't understand what you mean by this?
"Hatred?" Ding Zhuqiang scoffed, turned his eyes to look at the sunset on the horizon, came back to his senses, changed the topic, pushed open the door and entered the house: "It seems that I am going to live here." ”
"Tweet ......"
However, if you don't listen, in the sound of the golden silk ruyi bird, she follows me like a shadow and flies into the room.
"What's the matter? Xingyu was displeased, and inexplicably lost his temper, and followed into the room and said, "Don't you look at how clean and tidy this room is." ”
"That's right!" Ding Zhuqiang wiped it on the seat casually, there was no dust, thinking that someone would often clean it, and it was still filled with a faint fragrance, and he couldn't help asking: "I don't know who lived here before?"
"This courtyard was originally for me to live in, and since my grandfather wanted me to take care of you, I had to bring you to live. Xingyu's face turned red inexplicably, and then said: "You have a good rest first! I live in the next room, what can you call me?"
"Second Miss, why did you bring a man to my room for what?"
At this moment, Xiao Lan, who thought to be a personal maid, suddenly appeared and asked.
"You think I'm willing! It's not that grandpa wants me to take care of him. ”
Xing Yuxian was startled, but he pretended to be calm and replied indifferently.
"And where do I live?"
When Xiaolan heard this, she couldn't cry urgently.
"You ......" Xingyu paused, but when he saw Ding Zhuqiang, who was embarrassed on the spot, he pulled Xiaolan out and said, "Then why don't you live with me first!"
"But...... There's my ...... in this room."
However, before Xiaolan could finish hesitating, she was forcibly pulled away by Xingyu.
"What?" Ding Zhuqiang didn't seem to come back to his senses until this moment, and asked to himself: "It turns out that this room is for women......"
"Tweet ......"
At this moment, the golden silk ruyi bird lying peacefully at the head of the bed let out a cry and responded.
"Huh...... It's really ......"
Ding Zhuqiang had no choice but to laugh, so he had to settle down and stay for the time being, there was nothing wrong with it?
Ding Zhuqiang, who calmed down, was thinking like a tide, thinking about his thoughts. Everything I have experienced since I came to this world is really like a dream, especially the confidante I have met, I really don't know if I can return with the beautiful woman in the end......
"City Lord, what is the purpose of the Eight Desolations City Lord?"
At this moment, in the hall of the mansion, Commander Lei couldn't help but ask a question.
"What else is it for? The Aoxing City Lord was so angry that he had to justify himself, and then asked: "Listening to your report just now, my Aoxing City has suffered heavy casualties, and it is difficult to resist the attack of Heiyu City, right?"
"Returning to the city lord, this is indeed the case. The one who answered this was the young male general Seiya, and kowtowed again: "And according to the outpost, Heiyu City may have learned the news and has marched towards my Aoxing City, but I am afraid that the army will come to the city tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." ”
"Hmph! This Heiyu City dares to be so presumptuous. The city lord of Aoxing was furious, but he was helpless, so he just asked, "How many soldiers are coming?"
Seiya replied respectfully, "It is reported that there should be 100,000. ”
"One hundred thousand?" Xinghui's face changed, and she asked speculatively, "Could it be that Heiyu City is pouring all the troops of the city?"
"Hmm. Only the injured Commander Lei, who was sitting in the chair, nodded in a deep voice and said, "Yes, otherwise, then Heiyu City would not have any scruples and would not dare to attack." ”
The Lord of Aoxing City pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked, "What is the situation in Baichuan City?"
Seiya replied, "It is reported that the troops have withdrawn and returned to the city. ”
"Oh, I actually withdrew my troops back to the city. ”
Hearing this news, the Aoxing City Lord finally frowned.
"Lord City Lord, this is thanks to the conspiracy of the Eight Desolation City Lords, and now that Heiyu City is committing a big attack, it seems that I have to ask the Eight Desolation City Lords to send troops to rescue them immediately. ”
When Xinghui said this, it was obvious that she was stating the importance of Ding Zhuqiang.
"Hmm. The Aoxing City Lord was unpredictable and nodded slowly. Then he got up and said: "Don't think all about having the help of the Eight Desolate Cities, Xinghui, pass the order, actively prepare for the battle, and face Heiyu City." ”
"Yes. ”
Xinghui was duty-bound and immediately bowed down to receive the order.
"I don't know what kind of hospitality Yu'er arranged for the Eight Desolations City Lord?"
The Aoxing City Lord seemed to be talking to himself, but in the ears of the three people in the hall, it was a different thought.
As night fell, the Lord of Aoxing City was really worried about it, perhaps because Aoxing City was in danger, so he had to endure the humiliation first.
"Yu'er, what about the Eight Desolations City Lord!"
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, the Aoxing City Lord couldn't help but shout.
"Squeak!" When the door opened, Xingyu suddenly burst out and said, "Of course, I followed my grandfather's instructions and took good care of him, so I let him live in Xiaolan's room." When he finished speaking, he pointed to it.
"You little girl...... " The city lord of Aoxing couldn't help but be shocked, the expression on his face changed uncertainly, he slowed down, and went straight to say: "Okay, you go back to the house!"
"Oh!"
Xingyu pouted, as if he had been wronged, and nodded his head sullenly.
"Second Miss, Lord City Lord, why are you upset?"
But seeing Xingyu depressed and returned to the house, Xiaolan couldn't help asking.
"Grandpa, yes, I'm not doing what he says. ”
Xingyu was really sulking, complaining a lot.
Xiaolan came up with a ghost idea and said, "Second Miss, don't worry about it, or let's eavesdrop." ”
Xingyu was a little frightened and said, "This is not good! If my grandfather finds out, he may be angry again." ”
"I don't think so. Xiaolan instigated: "Didn't the city lord want you to take care of the second lady, even if you overheard it, I wouldn't blame you?"
"This is also ah!" Xingyu thought for a moment and agreed, "It's best to overhear why Grandpa wants me to take care of the Eight Desolations City Lord?"
"Then let's go!"
Xiaolan even urged, and under this, the two young girls of the same age walked lightly to the window at the back of the room. In the twilight of the night, I was listening with bated breath, and I was really unaware......
As soon as he came to the window, Xingyu only heard the pigtailed young man say neatly: "If you want me to stay and help you Aoxing City tide over the difficulties, then it's okay, but I don't know what the Aoxing City Lord plans to do to keep me?"
Then I only heard the Lord of Aoxing City reply coldly: "If you want to learn the thousand-year-old astral technique of my Aoxing City, then first help me Aoxing City to repel the incoming enemy." ”
"What? are you really using my Thousand Year Star Technique in Star City as a reward?"
Hearing this, Xingyu was shocked and thought to herself. On the other hand, Xiaolan, who eavesdropped, was silent and attentive.
"Hmph! I knew it was going to be like this. After hearing Ding Zhuqiang's sneer, he paused before saying, "Then I have to say goodbye first, you can do it yourself." ”
"Stop!" Huo Ran only heard the angry voice of the Aoxing City Lord, and asked in a hateful voice, "Then how do you want to stay and help my Aoxing City?"
I only heard Ding Zhuqiang say very casually: "Naturally, you will teach me the thousand-year-old star technique immediately, so that I won't be bored if I stay here, right?"
"Alright then!"
After a while, I only heard that the Aoxing City Lord had compromised.
"I really didn't expect this pigtailed young man to be so despicable and shameful?"
At this moment, Xingyu's favor for Ding Zhuqiang suddenly dropped to zero, and after secretly being angry, it was inconvenient to listen to it anymore, so he left immediately.
In this way, Xiaolan couldn't listen alone, so she followed her and left quietly. But the performance of the second miss is quite strange, just because in his own thoughts, if he is according to the second lady's previous temperament, even if he can't help but be impulsive, break through the window, and rush into the house.
