Chapter 346: The Town of the Year (Part II)
Seeing Du Hu, the old woman showed a happy smile on her face, and said, "It turned out to be Young Master Du, and I haven't thanked you for the rice miles you sent me before, come on, please sit inside." ”
As he spoke, he saw Yan Yin standing there quietly, and said a little strangely, "This is ......." ”
Du Hu was about to speak, Yan Yin strode into the house,
In the yard, there is a water tank,
"I remember the first time I came here, I washed my body with the water in this tank, although it was a little cold, but it was very comfortable. Touching the water tank, Yan Yin sighed slowly and said, "It's a pity that I didn't have the height of the water tank back then, but now I am already higher than the water tank, and time is really fast." ”
Du Hu looked at Yan Yin in surprise, and from his words, he heard that Yan Yin had indeed come to this town, and it seemed that he had also come to the old woman's house.
The old woman Cheng was also a little puzzled and said, "You have been to my house." ”
Looking at the old woman Cheng, Yan Yin nodded and said, "Old man, thank you for the clothes back then." ”
Saying that, Yan Yin looked at Du Hu and said, "Let's go." ”
Du Hu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, looked at Mrs. Cheng, and said, "Grandma Cheng, then I'll go first, and I'll come to see you when I'm free." ”
Looking at the backs of Yan Yin and Du Hu leaving, the old woman Cheng's rickety body became more and more bowed, and her wrinkled face frowned, "Water tank, clothes, strange, who is this person, inexplicable." ”
Perhaps, she has forgotten,
It's just that the little boy who washed his body here once because he was covered in mud back then, when he returned here again after more than ten years, his heart was still full of gratitude.
Looking at the sturdy and upright figure in front of him, Du Hu's heart was full of doubts,
Just as he was thinking about things, Yan Yin suddenly asked, "I heard that Grandma Cheng called you Young Master Du, and your courtyard is so atmospheric, just looking at your dress, it doesn't seem to be so rich, can you tell me what's going on?" ”
Du Hu was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile, "My family used to have some small wealth, but since my father died, my mother died two years ago, alas...... Although I am the young master of the Du family, I don't like that kind of rich family, and in the past few years, the northern Xinjiang has been chaotic, and the merchants who come and go have become scarce, and our Du family has some small wealth, but it has gradually been exhausted over the years. ”
"Well, that's how it is" Yan Yin nodded and said, "Let's go back to the inn." ”
"We. Du Hu said strangely: "I don't know if the general has anything else to do with Du Hu." ”
Looking at Du Hu, Yan Yin said, "You have something." ”
Nodding, Du Hu said, "There are a few families in Wolf Cloud Peak, they are old, and it is inconvenient to come down, so I will send them some food every time, and today is just the day, so I am going to send them things, the mountain road is rugged, and there are a lot of things, so it will take a little long, and it is already noon, so ...... I beg your pardon, General. ”
Looking at Du Hu in surprise, Yan Yin said, "I can't see it, not only do you not have the kind of gentlemanly atmosphere of a rich son, but on the contrary, you are also very kind and enthusiastic, not bad." ”
After a deep groan, Yan Yin looked into the distance, where there stood a thousand-zhang high mountain, straight into the cloud peak,
Looking at Du Hu, Yan Yin said, "Wolf Yunfeng, I don't know if I can go with you." ”
"Uh. Du Hu was taken aback and said, "General, you have to go too, this ...... It's not appropriate. ”
Smiling, Yan Yin said, "It's nothing bad, let's go." ”
Three hours later, the sky had gradually darkened, Du Hu followed Yan Yin, and was walking down the Wolf Cloud Peak.
"General Fang, your strength is so great, you can actually walk like a fly carrying hundreds of catties of things. Du Hu looked at Yan Yin in surprise and said, "I take the liberty of asking, are you a military general,
Smiling, Yan Yin said, "It's not important, but I appreciate you very much, this Wolf Cloud Peak is very steep, you are just a martial artist, up and down, carrying hundreds of catties of things, it is very fortunate to think about it, but from the gratitude and words of those people on the mountain before, it can be seen that you will send those things to them at a fixed time in the past two years, it can be seen that you are a very perseverance and perseverance and a very kind person." ”
Du Hu scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "How can the general say it so well, I just heard my father say when I was a child that Wolf Yunfeng had five brothers before, known as the five wolves of Wolf Cloud Peak, although they occupied Wolf Cloud Peak, but they didn't do those things to rob the house, and it is said that the five wolves of Wolf Yunfeng also helped the young general back then, and he was a well-known man." ”
After a deep groan, Yan Yin looked at Du Hu and said, "Why do you call General Yan's son a young general." ”
"This" Du Hu said "He is the son of our General Yan, that is, the young master of Northern Xinjiang, it is not an exaggeration to call him the young general, but it is just ...... Alas"
Sighing, Du Hu said, "It's a pity that our major general was ...... by that hateful wind and clouds."
Thinking of Yan Yin's identity, Du Hu suddenly stopped talking and stopped making a sound,
Seeing that Du Hu was suddenly silent, Yan Yin thought about it for a while, and then figured out the key to it, he was the deputy commander of Dingbei, and in Du Hu's eyes, he must be a person who was together with the wind and clouds, although he left a good impression in Du Hu's eyes, but he was still a little defensive of him from the bottom of his heart,
In this regard, Yan Yin also understood, and after walking for a while, Yan Yin asked, "I don't know, what are your plans in the future, do you want to continue to stay in this town?"
Du Hu hesitated for a moment, and sighed, "I also thought about going to the north with all my wealth to contribute to the northern frontier, but unfortunately, my strength is not good, I am afraid that as soon as I leave the town, I will be killed by unknown beasts." ”
Yan Yin looked at Du Hu and said, "I don't know, are you interested in following me." ”
"Ah," Du Hu said, "follow you, general." ”
"How. Yan Yin smiled, "I still think I'm a small official, or ......."
"Don't hide it," Du Hu said, "The strength of the general should be very good, but it seems that there are fewer of your subordinates." ”
"Haha......" Yan Yin laughed and said, "Under my subordinates, there are six martial arts sects, and the rest of the people are all innate martial artists. ”
"Ahh Du Hu was shocked and said, "Six martial sects, so many, you ...... that general"
Smiling, Yan Yin said, "In the future, you will naturally know, I don't know, are you interested, if you are interested, when you say tomorrow, you will go to the Major General's Building to find me." ”
After speaking, Yan Yin jumped up, and in a few moments, she disappeared in front of Du Hu's eyes.
When I returned to the Major General's Building, it was already dark.
Several bright lanterns are hanging outside the Major General's building, dispelling the darkness around them.
"Brother Fang, what are you doing. Seeing Yan Yin coming back, everyone in One Piece, who was talking in the living room, got up and asked,
Smiling slightly, Yan Yin said, "It's nothing, by the way, have the soldiers been arranged?" ”
"Well," One Piece replied, "it's already arranged, and they're all staying in this major general's building." ”
Glancing at everyone, seeing that Xu Lan and Shopkeeper Tong were also there, Yan Yin smiled and said, "What are you talking about?" ”
Xu Lan opened her mouth and said, "I'm listening to Shopkeeper Tong talk about General Yan and General Yan's son, the young general. ”
"Oh......" Yan Yin looked at the shopkeeper Tong, only to see the shopkeeper Tong and said with a smile, "Several soldiers want to hear it, and the old man also has some time, so he will talk to them." ”
Nodding, Yan Yin said, "I'm a little tired, so I'll go upstairs to rest first." ”
Shopkeeper Tong hurriedly asked the shopkeeper to beckon Yan Yin upstairs, and after Yan Yin went upstairs, Shopkeeper Tong told One Piece about the events of the year.
"Na ...... back then" was told by the shopkeeper Tong, Yan Yin thanked the shopkeeper and entered the room.
He didn't stay in the room for long, but stood quietly for a while, then put on his cloak and opened the window and flew towards the other side of the town.
Looking at the house below quietly, Yan Yin's eyes showed a trace of nostalgia,
Falling into the house, he soon found the courtyard where he had eaten with his father.
A stone table, a few stone chairs, he still remembered that after he first learned Zama, he heard Yan Yi tell him about martial artists in this courtyard.
It's just that time has passed, and in a blink of an eye, he has grown up, and his father who was holding him back then, but he doesn't know where,
Although Yan Yi appeared in the first city of Fengyun, from the bottom of his heart, he was afraid that his father did not recognize him, otherwise, how could he not come down to see him,
The hesitation, confusion, helplessness, and the melancholy in her heart made Yan Yin sigh,
In the familiar and unfamiliar courtyard, under the boundless starry sky under the night of the northern frontier, this strong and upright posture seems to have a desolation that blends into the darkness,
The next day, when Yan Yin came out of the Major General's Building, she happened to see Du Hu standing there with five or six people with a somewhat uncertain expression, discussing something.
Seeing Yan Yin come out, Du Hu's face suddenly became happy, and then he said a little humbly, "General Fang, good morning." ”
glanced at Du Hu, and saw that he was carrying a burden on his body, and the people around him were about the same age as him, and everyone was carrying a burden, and they all carried weapons with knives or swords in their hands.
After a little thought, Yan Yin understood something,
looked at Du Hu and smiled, "You've decided." ”
"Mm-hmm" nodded seriously, Du Hu said, "I have already done everything at home, I gave some of the remaining money in the family to the servants, and also ordered a few reliable guards to let them go to Wolf Cloud Peak to help those people when they are free, these are all people who are willing to go to the north with me with the general, I don't know ...... general."
Glancing at the five people, nodding, Yan Yin said, "Of course, they have this heart, Fang is naturally willing to accept it, but first, let's say it first, when you enter my team, you must follow my rules, and obeying orders and discipline is the most basic one, and you will consult with One Piece later." ”
As he spoke, One Piece stepped forward and said, "I'm Commander Fang's assistant, if you have anything, you can also look for me." ”
"Mm-hmm," Du Hu hurriedly said, "I know this, and it is appropriate to obey discipline and orders." ”
So, the team was joined by six people again.
Fortunately, there are not many people, and the strength and means of One Piece are placed there, and it is easy to manage.
After breakfast, Yan Yin and the others left a thousand taels of silver, and then said goodbye to the shopkeeper Tong and left the Major General's Building, and left the town with the team.
"Du Hu, you were born here, I don't know if you can show us the way. One Piece looked at Du Hu, who had just joined the team, and said, "You are a newcomer, and your strength is not very high, so we will take care of you in the first period, but in the future, you also have to work harder, not only to integrate yourself into the team here, but also to enhance your strength, so that you can have the means to protect yourself when danger comes." ”
"Mm-hmm" Du Hu nodded seriously and said, "Thank you for your concern."
After a pause, Du Hu said, "We have just left the town for dozens of miles now, and I listen to the meaning of the commander of Fang, which is to go to Zhenbei City, from this road, we must first walk thousands of miles to the northwest, and then go to the northeast in a roundabout, so that we can get to Zhenbei City, but it will take a little longer." ”
"It doesn't matter if it's a long time, this time I came to Northern Xinjiang, not only to pacify the alien beasts, but also to do more important things" Yan Yin in front looked back at the One Piece and said, "Tell the team, speed up, you must travel three hundred miles before dark." ”
After speaking, Yan Yin looked at Xu Lan and said, "Miss Lan, I don't know if you are interested in following me to explore the way." ”
Xu Lan, who was beautiful and heroic, nodded and said, "Yes." ”
