Chapter 33: The Eve of the Great War
After sending off the confused Sheng Guoren, the courtyard finally became quieter, and the three of them sat around in the moonlight.
Jiang Wuxian said in a low voice: "Before dawn the day after tomorrow, the Kuishan Battalion and the Jinjia Battalion will attack the city, and we will have to sneak into the Spring Pool Pavilion tomorrow night." ”
Yan Chen's mind was obviously slower in these matters, and he asked with a grin: "People must be strictly guarded there, why do you mix in?" ”
Jiang Wuxian rolled his eyes, he found that he had to explain everything to Yan Chen, which made him very upset, so he didn't speak, just stretched out his hand and pointed to the three sets of armor on the ground.
Chu He said with a smile: "We can wear the armor of the Iron Heart Guard to blend in, this set of armor also has a face armor, which is very suitable for us to hide our identity." ”
Chu He waited for Yan Chen to digest it for a while, and then asked, "The surname is Jiang, didn't you say that you want to find a way to help me get Yuan Shi?" Where? If I didn't have a primordial stone, I wouldn't be able to use any witchcraft. ”
"Brother Chu, don't worry, tomorrow during the day, let's go and get it together."
"Where to get it?"
"Brother Chu, guess what, now in this Qushui County, except for King Xiao Ming, who has the most Yuan Shi in his hand?"
Chu He pondered for a long time and said, "Rich Lord Hao? ”
"Not bad! Hao Datong, the richest man in Qushui, has accumulated countless fortunes in Qushui County over the years by means both openly and secretly, and there must be a lot of Yuanshi in his family. ”
Chu He was puzzled: "It's true that he is the richest man, there must be a lot of gold and silver treasures in the family, but he doesn't cultivate, why do you want so many stones?" ”
"Brother Chu doesn't know this, he has a son, who is the meat of his heart, for his unmotivated son to be successful in martial arts, he has completely ignored gold and silver over the years, and has purchased Yuanshi for his son in many channels."
"How do you know so much about their family?"
"Hehe, I was in charge of intelligence in the Military Strategy Department back then, and their old Hao family, as the richest man in Qushui, has a lot of connections with Shengjing, so it is also one of the objects of our key surveillance."
Yan Chen scratched his head, "That Yuanshi hidden at home, why did you get it here, steal it?" We won't. Rob? Doesn't that scare the snake? ”
Jiang Wuxian rolled his eyes again and pointed to the armor on the ground, "Put it on, we are the Iron Heart Guard, in this Qushui County, walking sideways." ”
Yan Chen looked at Jiang Wuxian's expression as if he was teaching his son to write, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he kicked up, "Why are your eyes blind?" What's the old turn? As long as you are smart, you can be right? ”
Jiang Wuxian, who was kicked to the ground, immediately changed his face and said with a sneer: "Captain Yan is angry, I'm just a trickster, and it doesn't depend on your old man's performance at the critical moment." ”
"It's good to know, don't catch King Xiao Ming at that time, others will think it's your credit."
"Then how can it, if you can really capture King Xiao Ming alive, then the credit must be all due to Captain Yan."
"Fart! The credit is my brother's! ”
"Yes, yes, it's all Brother Chu's."
Chu He stood up, "Okay, let's go back to sleep." I won't be able to sleep tomorrow, and this is the last night before the big war. Brother Chen, you and your sister-in-law have a good talk. By the way, tell her that when we leave, we must plug in the courtyard gate. ”
Yan Chen nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will take care of her, fortunately, this is Taoye Lane, and the war will not easily affect here." When we break the city and arrest King Xiao Ming, I will lead your sister-in-law and godmother back to Dachongguan to settle down. ”
Yan Chen hurriedly returned to the inner courtyard, leaving Chu He and Jiang Wuxian alone.
Just when Chu He was about to go back to the house, he was stopped by Jiang Wuxian.
"Hey, Brother Chu, let's chat."
"What do I have to say to you?"
"Just tell me about your witchcraft, where did you learn it? Tell me about it. ”
Chu He grinned, "I said it was born, do you believe it?" ”
"I believe it, I had a suspicion that you are not from this world at all."
Chu He was shocked when he heard this, and then smiled again: "Then which world am I from?" ”
"I don't know this, but I think I'm well-informed, and your methods have never appeared in this world."
Chu He didn't say anything anymore, just smiled and looked at Jiang Wuyi.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Think for yourself." After speaking, Chu He turned around and went back to the house.
After entering the house, Chu He didn't plan to sleep, he was going to continue to practice the Qi Alchemy Technique in the army to see if he could break through to the Three Realms, so that tomorrow night's action would be more certain.
An hour later, the gaseous Yuan Force in the Chu River Qi Mansion began to rotate clockwise, turning faster and faster, and finally formed a whirlpool, and in the center of the whirlpool, a round drop of liquid Yuan Force appeared.
Chu He opened his eyes and let out a long breath.
Martial artist of the Three Realms, it's done!
Now Chu He felt that his head was clear, as if the sound coming from the inner courtyard was clearer.
Chu He stood up, pushed open the window and looked outside, the moon was still hanging high.
There were about two hours before dawn, and Chu He hurriedly got into the quilt and fell asleep a few minutes later.
On the eve of the war, it was exceptionally quiet.
As soon as the day dawned, Aunt Ma and Liang Yi began to work in the stove room, and made a few big dishes early in the morning.
Chu He rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked out of the house, saw the big table of dishes, and said in surprise: "What is the situation?" ”
Liang Yi wiped his sweat and walked out of the stove room, "Auntie said, you have enough to eat, and then you have the strength to do things." ”
At this time, Jiang Wuxian also smelled the smell, and his nose moved again and again, "Oh, it's fragrant, it's really fragrant." ”
Yan Chen yawned and walked out of the inner courtyard, shirtless, looked at the food on the table, and grinned, "This is to see us off." ”
"Phew, bah, bah." Liang Yi's face changed greatly, "What are you talking nonsense?" You can't die, I'm still counting on you to take me and my aunt to Qianguo to settle down. ”
"Okay, okay, I look at me, that's all it takes."
As a result, Yan Chen glared at Liang Yi viciously, and immediately sat down at the table like a kitten to eat.
A large table of food was eaten clean by a few people.
Of course, half of it had to go into Jiang Wuji's stomach.
Chu He still can't understand how big Jiang Wuxian's stomach really is, just like Jiang Wuxian can't understand his witchcraft.
After eating and drinking, the three of them prepared to set off, each putting on the armor of the Iron Heart Guard.
Yan Chen and Chu He's fit well, while Jiang Wuxian looked loose when he wore them.
"I said, you have eaten so much, where have you eaten?"
Jiang Wuxian said with a bitter face: "I don't know either, the meat is not long at all." ”
Yan Chen snorted coldly, "The food he eats is all spent on his black eyes, of course he doesn't grow meat." ”
The three of them were neatly dressed and ready to go.
Yan Chen also left his own knives here, they all carried Tie Xinwei's standard short knives on their waists, which seemed to be of quite good quality, and should be enough to deal with some emergencies.
Before going out, Jiang Wuxian said one last word.
"Auntie, do you still have buns? I'm afraid that I won't have anything to eat when I go out, so I'll go. ”
