The Wind Rises 282;
After Xiaotian used the earth-level mystic technique and the eleven Xuan Kings collided, a section of the wall of this first-class city that was ten kilometers long had collapsed, and the damage was very serious, and it was certain that if it didn't take a few months, this city wall would not be restored.
In this battle, although the three Xuan Kings and the four Xiaotian of the Jason Kingdom were seriously injured, they were insignificant compared to the losses of the Xiongnu Kingdom.
The fall of the seven Xuan kings, the remaining four Xuan kings also fled, and they did not stay in the military camp of the Xiongnu Kingdom at all, and the behavior of several of them had a great impact on the army of the Xiongnu Kingdom.
Without a strong man like King Xuan to suppress the formation, the leading commander of the Xiongnu Kingdom did not dare to rashly send troops to continue the attack, and ordered the whole army to withdraw fifty kilometers.
The Emperor's first-class city is very large, and it is more than thirty kilometers from any of the four gates to the City Lord's Palace, and the leading commander of the Jason Kingdom in order to be able to rush to the city wall at any time to direct the battle, so he adopts the same method as the Western Fortress, temporarily requisitioning a fairly large inn as a rest room at the closest distance to the city wall where the war is taking place.
In the inn, all the light pharmacists of the Eastern Fortress of the Jason Kingdom are far away, and there are more than 200 people, divided into four teams to heal the four seriously injured Xuan Kings of the Jason Kingdom.
And Chen Ning was also warmly received because of his identity as the protector of the Ming Dynasty, and all the generals treated Chen Ning with great respect, including the commander of the army that wrapped the Eastern Fortress.
After some conversation with them, Chen Ning also had a preliminary understanding of the current situation of the Eastern Fortress, and during this period, he also asked about the Qin Mansion in Tianyong City, but what disappointed him was that the people from the Qin Mansion did not rush to the Eastern Fortress, but went to assist the Northern Fortress, which made Chen Ning's idea of meeting Qin Zixuan face to face all the time also failed.
At this time, the expression on Chen Ning's face suddenly became serious, and he said: "General Liu, I don't know how many strong people of the Xuanwang class there are in the Xiongnu Kingdom, and there are eleven strong men attacking the Eastern Fortress, could it be that the Xiongnu Kingdom has sent all the Xuanwang powerhouses in the entire kingdom?" "This General Liu is the supreme commander of the Eastern Fortress.
Hearing this, General Liu sighed lightly, a trace of worry appeared on his old face, and said, "The Lord Protector doesn't know anything, among the eleven strong men you have seen, five of them are from the Qiangan Kingdom. ”
"Dry Kingdom!" Chen Ning muttered in a low voice, the sharp glint in his eyes flashed, and he continued to ask, "Could it be that the people of the Qiangan Kingdom are also interfering in this war?" ”
General Liu looked at Chen Ning, then bowed his head slightly and muttered for a while, and said, "Perhaps, although the Qiangan Kingdom did not send troops, among the eleven Xuan Kings you saw today, there are indeed five people from the Qiangan Kingdom. ”
Hearing this, Chen Ning fell silent for a short time, bowed his head and said nothing, not knowing what he was thinking, and his eyes flashed sharply from time to time.
"General Liu, you first tell me how many strong people there are in the Xiongnu Kingdom and the Qiangan Kingdom, and which family do the dead belong to?" Chen Ning said without raising his head, his tone was very flat.
General Liu pondered slightly, and said: "Lord Protector of the Country, after we have identified their bodies and the clothes they are wearing, among the seven Xuan Kings who died in battle, three were from the Qiangan Kingdom, and the remaining four were from the Xiongnu Kingdom. The Xiongnu Kingdom has a total of eight strong people of the Xuanwang class, and half of the remaining strong ones remain, while the Qiangan Kingdom also has eight Xuanwang kings, except for the three who died, there are still five left. ”
Chen Ning nodded slightly, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "Don't worry about those powerhouses of the Xuanwang class, I will solve it, General Liu, if there is nothing else, you better go out first." ”
General Liu didn't show the slightest unhappy look on his face, and immediately stood up from his chair, and said to Chen Ning respectfully: "Yes, the Lord of the National Protector, if the Lord of the National Protector is in need, you can call Liu at any time." Then, General Liu walked in the direction of the door.
"Bump!"
Just as General Liu walked to the door, the door was suddenly slammed open by a strong force, and it was immediately smashed into tatters, and then a white shadow flashed away from the outside, and quickly rushed into Chen Ning's arms.
Chen Ning was slightly stunned, and then a rare smile appeared on his face, he reached out to hug the white shadow into his arms, and reached out to gently stroke its little head.
The white shadow that suddenly broke in was the little white tiger that Chen Ning had forgotten to take away at the border of the Qiangan Kingdom.
Seeing that it was the familiar little white tiger that suddenly broke in, the anger on General Liu's face just now suddenly dissipated invisibly, this little white tiger was brought by Xiaotian, so General Liu was no stranger.
"Master Protector of the Country, the door is broken, I will immediately send someone to repair it." Dropping this sentence, General Liu slowly retreated.
"Woo woo woo woo ....." The little white tiger stared at Chen Ning with teary eyes, his eyes were full of grievances, and a pair of front paws kept scratching at Chen Ning's chest, and the sharp claws grabbed the clothes on Chen Ning's chest into wisps of rags to express his dissatisfaction.
Chen Ning's right hand gently stroked the little white tiger's fluffy little head, and kept saying some sorry words in his mouth to appease the little white tiger's emotions, and then took out a thousand-year-old ginseng from the space ring and put it in front of the little white tiger.
The little white tiger was immediately stunned, and then his eyes immediately lit up, as if he had completely forgotten the unhappiness in his heart before, and devoured this thousand-year-old ginseng into his stomach, and then opened his mouth widely, and after yawning, he closed his eyes and fell asleep in Chen Ning's arms.
Looking at the little white tiger so cute, Chen Ning couldn't help but show a faint smile on his face, and now he suddenly realized that he seemed to have a deep affection for the little white tiger, and the little white tiger was also very dependent on him.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed, and in these three days, Chen Ning fed the little white tiger a few more natural treasures, hoping that the little white tiger could grow up quickly, because he had always remembered the words of the old man in his heart, and he must improve the strength of the little white tiger as soon as possible.
Chen Ning believes that Uncle Bai will not say this sentence for no reason, maybe in the near future, the little white tiger will really encounter big trouble.
Three days later, the injuries on the bodies of Xiao Tian and the three Xuan Kings of the Jason Kingdom also fully recovered, and several of them met Chen Ning for the first time, and the three Xuan Kings of the Jason Kingdom naturally couldn't help but say some words of gratitude.
"Lord Protector of the Country, it's good that you came in time, otherwise, my old life would have been lost here." Xiao Tian said with a faint smile, but there was no fear on his face.
"Xiaotian, in that situation at that time, even if you are defeated, I believe you have the ability to escape." Chen Ning said with a smile, those who can serve as the national teachers of the Ming Dynasty are all carefully selected leaders, and these ordinary kingdom national teachers are basically two-level figures, unless the absolute strength of the two sides is too suspended, otherwise, they will not die easily.
And Chen Ning values Xiaotian very much in his heart, Xiaotian reached the realm of the fifth Xuanwang at the age of more than 100 years old, the talent can be said to be very terrifying, and there is a great possibility of breaking through to the realm of Xuanzun in the future, if he doesn't have any hole cards to save his life, then Chen Ning will definitely not believe it, the Ming Dynasty will not let such a strong man with extraordinary talent fall easily.
After a few people exchanged a few words of greetings, Chen Ning got to the point, and said: "Now the matter of attacking the Jason Kingdom has also intervened, if the two of them join forces, then the number of Xuan Kings will still be nine, and it can still pose a great threat to the Jason Kingdom, Xiaotian, you can sit in the Eastern Fortress these days to prevent their strong men from suddenly attacking." ”
"Master Protector of the Country, do you want to leave?" Xiao Tian looked stunned, and asked with some uncertainty.
Chen Ning nodded and said, "I'm going to go to the Qiangan Kingdom in person, they have intervened in this matter twice, and they must not be so lenient." Speaking of this, a strong killing intent flashed in Chen Ning's eyes, if he hadn't been there for the first time, I'm afraid Chang Bo would have been in danger.
As soon as he heard that Chen Ning was going to go to the Qiangan Kingdom alone, the three powerhouses of the Jason Kingdom all showed a look of surprise in their eyes, and they all couldn't understand why he had such a big grudge against the Qiangan Kingdom in his heart as the protector of the Ming Dynasty.
Although several people were very confused in their hearts, because of their identity, they didn't dare to ask, so they could only hold it in their hearts.
"Lord Protector of the Country, let Xiaotian go with you." Xiaotian opened his mouth and said, now Chen Ning's strength is not yet in the realm of Xuanzun, he is afraid that Chen Ning will encounter danger in this trip.
Chen Ning shook his head and said, "No need, I'll go alone, Xiaotian, you can stay here these days to prevent the strong men of the Xiongnu Kingdom from attacking again." ”
Xiao Tian showed a trace of helplessness on his face, and said: "Okay, then the Lord of the Protector must be more careful on this trip, although there are a few strong people killed in the Qiangan Kingdom, there are still many of their strong people." ”
Subsequently, Chen Ning left the city alone, flew in the sky at a height of thousands of meters, and rushed towards the Qiangan Kingdom. And in his arms he was holding a tiger the size of a kitten.
Originally, Chen Ning didn't plan to take the little white tiger over, but when he left, the little white tiger relied on him, and he was forced to take him away together, he was also very confident in his current strength, in front of several Xuan King's opponents, he believed that he had the ability to protect the safety of the little white tiger.
In the blink of an eye, the sky had already darkened, and in a second-level city in the territory of the Qiangan Kingdom, the figures on the streets were also rapidly decreasing, and the originally prosperous city was gradually quieting down.
At the city gate, a man who looked like a general looked at the sky, and then said to the people below; "The hour has come, close the gates."
Immediately, more than a dozen soldiers ran out, pushing the heavy city gate slowly shut.
"Wait a minute!" At this moment, a voice came from outside the city gate, and then I saw a white shadow flash away, and at the moment when the city gate was about to close, a young man with a small demon beast in his arms had already dodged into the city at a very fast speed, and then walked away.
For the entry of young people, those soldiers did not hinder them, they guarded the city gate and saw a lot of various characters all day long, and they had already trained a pair of fiery eyes, and from the speed of the young man coming in, it could be seen that the other party's strength was very strong, at least he was also a great master.
This young man is Chen Ning, it is getting late now, and Chen Ning doesn't want to go to the palace of the Qiangan Kingdom in the middle of the night, so he plans to rest for one night and continue to hurry tomorrow morning.
Chen Ning walked on the street that was already a little deserted with the well-behaved little white tiger in his arms, and entered several inns in a row, all of which were full and there were no extra rooms.
At this time, Chen Ning entered a smaller inn and asked, "Boss, is there any extra room?" ”
"Yes, yes, I don't know how many rooms do you want?" Immediately, a young man in his twenties walked out of it and said with a smile on his face.
Seeing the young man's face, Chen Ning was stunned, and a person's face suddenly appeared in the depths of his mind, but he quickly came back to his senses and said, "Give me the best inn, and give me a plate of barbecue beef." As he spoke, Chen Ning flipped his hand, and a gold coin appeared in his hand, and he stretched out his hand and handed it to the young man.
The young man immediately took the gold coin thrown by Chen Ning and said with a smile; "Guest officer, please sit casually, and I'll go serve you food." So saying, the young man went down.
Chen Ning looked at the back of the young man leaving in a daze, gradually pondered, casually walked to a clean table next to him and sat down, his mind couldn't help but appear in his mind the appearance of the previous black panther uncle, and fell into the memories of the past for a while.
"Objective, the dish you want is up." But after a long time, a voice woke Chen Ning up from his contemplation, and he saw that the shopkeeper was already holding a large plate of barbecue beef in front of Chen Ning's table, and it was the young man who had just left.
The little white tiger let out a happy cry, jumped onto the table, and unceremoniously began to gulp.
Seeing the little white tiger like this, Chen Ning couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face, and said, "Give me a plate of barbecue beef." ”
"Okay, objective!" The young man readily agreed, and then left.
