Chapter 5 Commanding the Storm I
It didn't take long for me to wake up to a sharp knock on the door, and I opened my eyes and looked out, and the sky was only a little light. I was about to shout who it was, when I remembered that I was no longer in Guan Yunyu, I was in the middle of the night's home. Thinking of this, I quickly sat up, I looked around, this is indeed the room where I was temporarily staying at midnight, it turned out that I fell asleep inadvertently last night.
Seeing that there was no movement, the people outside the door became more and more anxious, so they pushed the door directly and entered. The person who knocked on the door was Midnight. Seeing that I had sat up, Zi asked, "You're already up, why don't you open the door?"
Midnight was still wearing the same clothes that I had worn yesterday to see the Realm Lord, and I didn't change anything else.
I looked at myself, and because I hadn't taken off my clothes yesterday, I just got up.
I said, "As soon as I got up, you came." Genius is only a little bright, what are you calling me to do now, can't you be looking for me to have something?"
"Of course I'm looking for you, or you think I'm going to see you? ”
This sentence drove all my sleepiness away, and I quickly asked, "What job?"
Midnight glanced at me and said, "Of course it's going to the forbidden realm." In the case of not understanding anything, I didn't understand it well, and the future will be difficult for people like you. Okay, now you understand, come with me, it's too late. I've already finished the morning training with the troops, and now I'm here to call you, but you haven't fully woken up yet. ”
Her words were so sudden that I couldn't find out where the north was, and I never understood why I had only been here for one day, and I had just entered a place that so many people had dreamed of, and to be honest, I really couldn't believe it. But I still had to face it, so I had to get dressed and get ready to accept my new life.
Just as I was about to walk out the door, I suddenly remembered that I had an argument with the Realm Lord yesterday, and when I thought of this, I suddenly stopped my steps. I looked at the impatient midnight waiting at the door, and said, "I don't think it's very good there at all, I don't seem to be able to blend in, can I not go?"
Looking at Midnight's eyes, it was a cold and evil look, and Midnight always had this kind of look. It's this kind of look that I'm most afraid of.
Midnight said, "Are you playing with me? Do you know that I have delayed even the most basic training for you, and this is just so that you can come here." If you don't go now, then everything I did in the first place will be meaningless. Then, those who die for you have no meaning in dying. ”
This sentence hit the last nerve, she was right, I can't let those who died for me die in vain. No matter who it is, no, whether it is Mu Luo, the domain leader, or the more than 100 people up and down Guan Yun Domain, they all died because of me, I can't let them die in vain.
I thought of this, opened my steps again, and walked straight out the door, and I passed past Midnight's side, past her. Midnight looked at me who had already made a decision, didn't speak, didn't show any expression, she just followed me out of the room.
When we walked to the door of Midnight's house, we saw a man standing respectfully at the door, he was covered in black like the previous Midnight. I was wondering who I was when I spoke first.
Midnight said, "I don't need you, I will take him to the front of the realm lord to restore his life." ”
But the man had no intention of retreating, he paused and said, "I'm not here to take him to see the Realm Lord, I have something to tell the general." I wonder if the general can take a step to speak?"
Midnight looked at this man, looking at him as if there was no hostility. So at midnight he followed him to the side, and was not near me. I tried to hear what they were saying, but their voices were so low that I couldn't hear them. When the man said a word, Midnight's face suddenly became very panicked, she looked back at me standing on the side, and slowly paced into the distance, and the man followed. They should be trying to avoid me.
When the man thought I wanted to know what they were talking about, he put his face in front of Midnight's ear and said a few words. Midnight listened and nodded at the man. The man said a word and left, glancing at me as he left.
When Midnight came back to me, I just wanted to ask her who the man was, but I felt that Midnight's face was not quite right, so I didn't ask. Midnight looked at me, probably wondering why I hadn't asked her a question, but she thought it would be better if I didn't ask. So, Midnight led me to the forbidden realm where I had arrived yesterday.
When I look at this place again today, I don't think it's the same horror that I first looked at, but I still don't have a good impression of it. When I got downstairs, I saw the guards again, but this time they didn't seem to be the same people as yesterday. These people seem to be very powerful compared to those of yesterday, but they are not prepared for our arrival in the slightest. But they saluted at midnight.
The guards didn't check on me and Midnight at all, and easily put us in the forbidden zone. I looked back at these people and asked Midnight, "Why did those people come to check on us yesterday and not as annoying as those people yesterday?"
"That's because these are my soldiers, and of course my soldiers don't dare to do anything rude to me. Yesterday's group of people were soldiers returning to the sea, and he didn't want to see me, I know, but I didn't expect that even his soldiers were a group of uneducated people like him. ”
In Midnight's words, there was no sense of anger at all, but it made people feel that her tone was calm. I looked at Midnight's expression, still the same as when I first came in, and it didn't change at all because of the inappropriate words I asked. He is worthy of being a battle-hardened person, and he will not be frightened by anything unexpected at all. A person like Midnight will definitely be a top-notch good general.
But when I thought of this, I thought of Midnight's face that had just changed dramatically, and it didn't look like the Midnight I saw now and in the past. I don't know if Midnight is the kind of person who hides his true personality very well, and I will never know the secrets buried deep in my heart in Midnight.
Through the stairs, we reached the third floor, right in front of the Realm Lord's room, and I stopped, unable to move my steps. Midnight noticed something strange about me, and she also stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"
I shook my head and said, "I don't want to go in." ”
"But we're already here, what else can you do?"
After listening to Midnight's words, I followed her into the room I never wanted to go in again.
When I opened the door in the middle of the night, I saw everyone else except the Realm Lord. Among this group of people is the Commander of the Wood I met yesterday. All of these people look at their very high status, and I am already very timid just by looking at them, let alone talking to them. Midnight saluted and stood aside.
I looked at Midnight standing next to a good-looking man, who looked about the same age as Midnight, and should be about 20 years old. There was also a group of young-looking generals next to him, and among them was a young man who was far away from them, and he was looking at Midnight with very annoying eyes, and I think he should be the return to the sea in Midnight's mouth. I looked at the man, and he seemed to sense that someone was looking at him, and when he looked over to me, I quickly withdrew my gaze.
At this time, the realm lord suddenly spoke
"He's Yanchenchi, presumably all of you who are well-informed know, so I won't say more. The Realm Lord seemed to be sarcastic, "In the future, I will manage the person in the Soul Breaking Realm with you, and his qualifications are not as deep as yours, so I will assign him to the military department, on the same job as the general, but Mu Ziye will assist him." In the absence of other conditions, he is a general, but in the way of dealing with it, there is no necessary management. ”
His words made everyone's eyes look like mine, some surprised, some puzzled, some disgusted, some disdainful. At this moment, I really wanted to find a place to stay, and I didn't want to stay for a quarter of an hour in such an awkward scene, let alone at a moment when time almost stopped.
However, a slightly shrilled male voice broke the stiffness.
"Realm Lord, I have a question that I don't know if I should talk about?"
The person who said this is the same person I have been watching just now.
"That's it. The Realm Lord seemed upset about his inappropriate words, but he still had to let him say them.
"I want to know that this person is indeed not more senior than us, and there is no reason for General Yuki to assist me, but I just don't understand why this person who doesn't know anything should be a general, although I am not a general who leads the army, but I still know that a general is not something anyone can do. Has the Realm Lord thought it through?" there was an unfriendliness in his words that I could hear.
The Realm Lord was silent for a long time, not knowing how to answer him, because I had stayed here exceptionally. But the Realm Lord is the Realm Lord, he is the ruler here, no one can influence his will, no one can.
"Could it be that General Gui wants to change the meaning of the realm lord?" said Midnight coldly at this time.
Sure enough, he is returning to the sea. I saw Guihai's face become very bad, as if he had seen a ghost. I want to see how he rounds himself.
Guihai hurriedly saluted the realm lord, and said humbly: "The subordinates just feel that this kind of practice is afraid that it will be unfavorable for the commanders and generals to lead troops to fight in the future, after all, he is a newcomer." The subordinates just think it's time to start at the beginning. Of course, the order of the realm lord is still an order, and his subordinates must not disobey it. ”
"Are you teaching the Lord of the Realm how to govern?"
Guihai's face became worse and worse, and he bowed even more, wanting to relieve himself. But he didn't want to, and the realm lord interrupted such a quarrel.
He said: "Okay, Mu Ziye, I don't think Guihai is what you think, but the matter has been decided, and Guihai don't say anything more." So be it. Mu Li, you go and take him to see where he should go. Stand down, all of you. ”
The men all saluted and withdrew. I followed after midnight, and we came out just as the crowd was about to leave. We followed the crowd out of the room and closed the door. At this point, the people who had been walking in front of me at first stopped, and they turned around and looked at me like they were looking at a new species.
I was taken aback by their actions and subconsciously took a step back. At this time, there was a very old man, who seemed to be full of experience, and he came to me. He held out his hand to me, and there was not a hint of contempt in his expression, but there was still imperceptible arrogance in the depths of his eyes.
I took his hand, which had calluses on it for many years, and said, "I am the leader of Xiyuan, and my surname is Shun." ”
I hurriedly replied to him: "My name is Yanchenchi." ”
At this time, the man who was standing next to him at the beginning came over and said, "Yanchen Chi, my name is Jun Youxiao, I am the same as you, in Dongyuan, and my management area is adjacent to the empty building. I really didn't expect that you and I were at the same level. With that, he bared his teeth and smiled.
Like Midnight, he wears black, but has a navy blue trimmed cover. His hair was tied up high, wrapped in a gray headband, and thin bangs were on his forehead, clearly youthful and masculine. Judging by his clothes, he should be twenty years old.
Looking at him, he is Jun Youxiao in the mouth of Midnight, and he is also the god of war that everyone worships. In my impression, Jun Youxiao and Midnight are a good pair, and the troops they lead are the strongest troops in the Soul Breaking Realm, and they have not lost any battles. Thinking of this, my impression of Jun Youxiao is even better than Midnight, because they are also powerful characters, and he can do any interpersonal relationship better than Midnight, just like the conversation just now, words and deeds, all of them are stronger than Midnight.
At this time, Guihai came to my side, with a look of disdain on his face, and said simply: "Guihai." ”
Just such a simple sentence that could not be simpler still made me hear a kind of hostility. I forced a laugh and said I didn't like him very much. He didn't seem to take it seriously, and held out his hand to me. I held this hand, but found that there was a strong force in his hand, as if it was about to crush my hand. I tried to pull out my hand, but found that it was already tightly grasped by him, and I couldn't pull it out at all.
Midnight seemed to see the difference here, she quickly pulled my hand over, and scolded me: "Since you have finished the introduction, don't hold other people's hands, others will find it rude." Don't you understand these rules?"
Midnight's words were addressed to me, but they were actually addressed to Guihai. Everyone here understands this.
It seems that Midnight only told me half, and Guihai really doesn't want to see Midnight, and Midnight does the same to him. The opposing situation between the two people must be known to everyone present. Therefore, the rest of the people did not mean to relieve the siege for one side, but were watching the excitement. Only Jun Youxiao wanted to take a step for Midnight out of friendliness.
I looked at the stiffening situation here, and I felt like I was stuck in it for no reason, and I really wouldn't handle such a thing. Fortunately, at this time, Commander Mu came over and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to Dongyuan." ”
His arrival was like a savior, like a warm current suddenly coming from a frozen space, in which a clear path was opened. I hurried over to his side and wanted him to take me away quickly.
"Midnight, You Xiao, you go and take him to see Dongyuan, and by the way, tell him about the environment here, so that he can get familiar with it. Also, I'm going to sort out the war on the border, especially the one in Guan Yunyu, and when you have time in the future, send me some information. After saying this, he turned and left, ignoring the people around him.
I looked at this man and thought he was so amazing that the day after I got the news of my son's death, he could devote himself to his work. When I heard that Guan Yunyu was, my chest tightened suddenly, and my heartbeat became sharp and fast. Not only because he has to deal with Guan Yunyu, but also because he is a person who can work wholeheartedly regardless of personal matters, which will make me admire.
The people here are a group of well-known figures in the entire Soul Breaking Realm, and I will have to come into contact with them from now on, there are really too many that I can't predict. Many things are unpredictable.
