The spring snow melts into mud, the avenue is facing the sky, and the flow of people is murmuring.

On the path southeast of Sleepy Tiger Mountain, a black caravan was pulled by a healthy donkey and walked alone.

The master who drove the car was nearly sixty years old, his face was full of wrinkles, but his body was still healthy, and he held a long whip and gently urged the donkey to hurry.

This donkey has a blue and black body, high ears, and a body that is much taller than an ordinary donkey, with claw marks on its four hooves, and it is actually a half-demon with mixed blood.

The gait seems to be lazy, and I don't know how to constantly overtake the pedestrian carriage on the road.

A middle-aged passenger noticed the abnormality and was about to come forward to talk, but his older companion grabbed his arm, secretly pointed to the corner of the caravan, and whispered: "Don't make trouble, this is the car of the You family." ”

The middle-aged traveler took a closer look and found that the corner of the canopy was engraved with a seal "You". He was surprised: "Imperial City You Family?" hurriedly stopped his steps and moved to the side of the road.

The driver smiled: "These two passers-by are quite knowledgeable. ”

Turning his head to the car, he said, "Mr. Xiao, ten miles ahead of you will reach the Jianhe." It's getting late today, why don't you find an inn in Jianhe Xidu and leave tomorrow?"

The curtain of the car was raised, revealing a delicate young face. This person is only fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in green clothes, and it is Gu Wen.

When the Spring Festival arrives, the battle in Sleepy Tiger Mountain is over, and the army will return to the east.

When this army comes, it is like a stream that gathers into the sea, and when it retreats, it needs to be like a cocoon, and it needs to move steadily.

In addition, it is necessary to report merits and demerits, reward soldiers, treat the wounded, repair the city wall fortifications, and so on. Hundreds of millions of Great Chu troops could only slowly retreat.

The first nine cities to go to the battlefield, including Kaifeng, Changsha, and Hangzhou, were exhausted from a long battle, and were the first batch of troops to evacuate. But by the time they pulled out, it was already early March.

The Qingyun Continent also implements a double calendar. The solar calendar was set by the Great Qin Shi Huang, who had unified the mainland, and his birthday was January 1 of the first year of Qingyun.

The history of the lunar calendar is relatively long, and according to legend, it was created by the ancient Shennong clan in order to guide farmers to farm. The difference between the two calendars is 45 days.

February 15 of the solar calendar is the beginning of the lunar calendar.

In other words, the first legions did not begin to withdraw until about twenty days after the war.

The Luoyang Legion originally belonged to the second group, but the first line of the city wall of Hot Spring Pass was broken and needed to be repaired. It will not be evacuated until about April.

Gu Wen couldn't wait so long.

After being away from home for a long time, the otaku also began to feel homesick.

Second, Gu Wen's reputation in the army is too loud now, and he is entangled by a large number of idle and boring brain-dead fans in the military camp every day, and he lives like a year.

Fortunately, Gu Wen is now free, and he only accepted the employment of two pennies on the surface.

One article was to work as a chef in the canteen of the senior generals of the Luoyang Legion, and the other was to work as an ordnance manufacturing consultant for the Military Statistics Bureau.

Now that I have finished my career, I am just time to withdraw.

Luoyang City, Junhu Town, and Qingshan Town were all happy because of Gu Wen, the winner of the Empire's first-class Medal of Honor.

In addition to Gu Wen, eight people from Duntou Village went on an expedition, Sang Quan, Shi Xiong, Gao Cheng, Cang Tietou, Lu Ren, Song Bin, Guan Dazhuang and Zhu Guangding.

Among them, Song Bin had the worst luck, and was killed by falling bricks and stones when he broke through the first line of the hot spring pass wall in the Gathering Demon Mountain.

Cang Tietou lost a leg in the early stage of the war and became crippled.

The remaining six did not suffer major damage.

After the war, Song Bin's pension was increased tenfold, he was awarded a third-class martyr, a thousand gold coins, and a hundred acres of official land, which was enough for the sister-in-law of the Song family to live calmly with a pair of children.

Cangtietou remembered the honor of the disabled soldiers, and gave 500 gold coins and 30 acres of official land.

The other six were all rewarded with three times the amount of military merit. Among them, Guan Dazhuang was directly recruited by the Second Military Academy of Junhu City, and Zhu Guangding was also specially recruited by Qingshan Town Martial Arts University.

It is said that Wuxue University has sent people to Duntou Village to inspect Shi Wu, Han Qingliu and others who have not joined the army, as long as their qualifications are not too sweaty, they can be enrolled.

As the saying goes, if a person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven.

Gu Wen said goodbye to his brothers and fellow villagers, and when he was about to go. Zhang Wenyuan, the marshal of the Luoyang Legion, is all reluctant to give up. Before leaving, Tong Niu and the others were still desperately trying to sell their sister and daughter to Gu Wen.

Dai Cheng has made great contributions because of the discovery of Gu Wen's genius, and has been promoted from director to director.

In this position, Dai Cheng knows a lot of royal secrets, but he is not as kind to Gu Wen as he used to be. Of course, a large stack of golden tickets is indispensable.

Dai Cheng also gave Gu Wen a special guest secretary of the military command, and in the future, if he encounters difficulties, he can directly transfer anyone below the section chief of the Military Statistics Bureau in the local area.

The Western Legion, represented by Lei Wenbo, also offered generous gifts, but Gu Wen only took a stack of golden tickets, and most of them were not taken. Without him, it is too heavy to hold.

The under-chief of staff, Yubis, lost a lot of money in this battle. However, in the battle of Hot Springs, he had to think of the first strategy, and personally destroyed the magic crystal ball, and was the first in the army.

After getting rich and promoted, Yu Bisi learned that Gu Wen was going to leave early, so he immediately gave Gu Wen a canopy carriage.

This carriage looks ordinary, but there is a mystery in it.

The cart is pulled by a half-demon green donkey with dragon blood, which can easily travel 3,000 miles a day;

The old man who drove the car was a level 65 Burmese swordsman who had escaped from slavery;

The canopy looks swarthy, but it is woven of black gold silk, which can carry the close-range fire of a siege crossbow;

The interior of the car is engraved with various talismans such as shock absorption, constant temperature, incense, self-cleaning, and concentrating, and it is like a peaceful living hall;

The car is also printed with the mark of the You family in the capital, and anyone who wants to use his brains will face the wrath of the wealthy You family.

With this donkey cart, Gu Wen traveled all the way east, and there was a lot less trouble.

All the way through the state, within ten days, came to the west of the Jianhe River. After crossing the Jian River, it entered the jurisdiction of Luoyang City.

It was already the beginning of March, and the further southeast we went, the clearer the weather became, and the snow and ice melted away, and the fields began to show a faint shade of green.

(This is an otherworldly, geographers and meteorologists do not pursue.) ）

For Gu Wen, who has been watching the black and gray for several months, he only feels that this slightly green is unusually distinct.

So the old man gradually slowed down the galloping donkey cart and began to look around frequently to enjoy the scenery along the way.

When Lao Fang was young, he turned out to be a high-roller who paraded around the world. Later, he was demoted to slavery for his crimes, and he drove a car for the You family for decades. For the Central Plains geography, landscape, food, allusions, customs are all clear.

Gu Wen was bored on the journey, and often chatted with the old party, and felt that he benefited a lot.

Seeing that the Jianhe River was approaching, the old man pointed to a small dilapidated temple on the hill by the river with a whip:

"This place is called Jialan Temple, legend has it that Emperor Wen when the famous general Song Ren cut his hair here as a monk, and passed down the ruthless Tao. In the past, it was as prosperous as a city, but now Song Ren has been dead for hundreds of years, and this small temple is also dilapidated. ”

Gu Wen listened, and couldn't help but think of the allusion to Blue Star in his previous life, and said with a smile:

"Is this Song Ren because he was abandoned by a woman, so he cultivated some ruthless Dao. ”

The old man scratched his head and said: "The behavior of these seniors, how can I know about the behavior of a driver." ”

"However, it is said that Song Ren is a descendant of Song Yu of Lanling, and Song Yu is a famous beautiful man in our Great Chu world. Song Ren should also be a handsome guy. ”

"Since he is a handsome guy, he must hook up with beautiful women, love and kill each other, this kind of thing is always unnecessary. ”

Gu Wen said with a smile: "You are very clever in using this 'unwarranted', and you have the potential to be the prime minister." ”

The old man shook the whip and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao said that I am a reckless man, if you want to say that it is okay to slaughter pigs, the prime minister must not be able to slaughter them." ”

Gu Wen laughed and said, "Since this is the case, I will make up a story, maybe I can make this place prosperous again." ”

"The story is called 'The Legend of Jialan'"

"It is said that in the era of Emperor Wen, the general Busong led the troops to the west to conquer the corpse demons, and met a beautiful woman on the streets of Luoyang. ”

The Nabuzon made a private pact with this beautiful woman for life, saying that they would marry her when they returned triumphantly. ”

"Unexpectedly, this Busong man was on the battlefield, his head was full of thoughts about crackling with beautiful women, and he commanded a big defeat indiscriminately. ”

In order to escape the blame of Emperor Wen, the Busong people pretended to be dead, cut their hair and hid in Jialan Temple as monks. Prepare to wait for the limelight to pass before returning home to marry a wife. ”

"After a few years, it was easy to get out of the limelight, and the Busong people went to Luoyang to find beautiful women. As a result, I learned that because the news of his death reached Luoyang, the beautiful woman was overwhelmed with grief and soon died. ”

"Under the sadness of the Busong people, they waved their swords from the palace, cultivated the ruthless way, and became the number one master in the world, known as the undefeated in the East. Finally shattered the void and left. ”

"How's that going?

Gu Wen said, his eyes glanced at an elderly pedestrian on the side of the road, intentionally or unintentionally.

Lao Fang laughed and coughed: "Mr. Xiao is really amazing, this story is made up as it is true." The name Dongfang Undefeated is too domineering, if you take it to the restaurant teahouse, maybe Jialan Temple can really prosper. ”

Gu Wen smiled: "In addition to the story, I also made up a song, do you want to listen to it?"

Lao Fang was overjoyed and said: "Being able to listen to Mr. Xiao's new song is really a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes. ”
