Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Great Cadre Talisman Appears
Talismans?
Jiang Chen saw Gu Jun suddenly stop, and thought that he was not feeling well.
Unexpectedly, Gu Jun said something that shocked him greatly, "According to Brother Jiang's description just now, what that man is holding in his hand is not a weapon, but like a talisman in the Great Cadre Army!" β
"You mean, that man held a talisman to block my sword and killed three bandits?"
Jiang Chen's previous life was just an inconspicuous down-and-out scholar, where would he have seen what the talisman that symbolizes supreme power in the Great Cadre Army looked like?
Otherwise, his reaction at that time should be exactly the same as Gu Jun at this time.
"The Great Cadre Command Department controls five armies, so there are five talismans, and the styles of these talismans are roughly the same, but there is a clear distinction in the grip part."
"For example, the handle of the military talisman of the border army of the town is carved into the shape of a goat's horn, and the handle of the military talisman of Huang Jinjun, who is responsible for defending the capital, is an ivory that symbolizes strength."
It's a pity that Jiang Chen didn't understand these differences, so he didn't pay attention to what shape the talisman in the man's hand was at the handle.
The appearance of this person made them all very puzzled, it stands to reason that a person who can hold a talisman should naturally be the commander of an army, and the lowest rank should be a deputy general in the army.
It is also a common situation in the army to ask a trustworthy adjutant general to keep the talismans on his behalf.
"Brother Gu, what do you think that person's identity will be?"
"I don't know, but he must be in a high position in the army, but since he is here, it may not be a good thing."
Jiang Chen thought to himself: If that person went south with the displaced people, then wouldn't he be a deserter as well?
However, judging from the posture of the man fighting with the bandits, it is inevitable that he will look down on him too much, after all, there are several living examples of what a deserter should look like a bear.
So if he is not a deserter, the reason behind it is even more intriguing.
This question lingered in Jiang Chen's mind until they successfully arrived in Gucheng County and placed a deal in the kiln factory.
Gu Jun was surprised to find that Jiang Chen actually had another skill, that is, drawing, but according to Jiang Chen's own words, this was called cartography.
"Master, let's fire according to these styles I have drawn, make samples first, and then mass production, I need to make two hundred finished products for each style."
"Remember to send it to Shanguan Town as agreed."
After staying in Gucheng County for a day, Jiang Chen and Gu Jun began to rush home non-stop after negotiating the business.
When he came out, he promised Wu Yue to go back as soon as possible, Jiang Chen didn't want to break his promise, he could almost imagine that Wu Yue would definitely lean on the door of his house, looking forward to his return.
Gu Jun saw Jiang Chen in a hurry, and asked puzzledly: "Everything has been done, can't we be in such a hurry?" β
"I don't know why, my right eyelid has been beating since this morning, and I always feel that something bad is happening."
"Brother Jiang, do you believe this too?"
Gu Jun has always felt that Jiang Chen's thoughts and thoughts are eclectic, and he should not believe in this kind of godly and ghostly thing, but today it seems to be abnormal.
"It's probably the first time I've been so far away from home, and I'm nervous, but I hope something else happens."
The two of them hurried all night without much rest on the way, until they finally returned to the ancient city of Shanguan Town in the early morning of the next day.
Passing through the street market that had just begun to become lively, a splendid and gorgeous sedan chair surrounded by more than a dozen people forcibly blocked Jiang Chen's way.
The butler with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks laughed and said, "Who dares to stand in the way of our master, this is in a hurry to reincarnate?" β
Jiang Chen knew that this was Zhao He's sedan chair, and he knew what they wanted to do, so he didn't rush back and put on a leisurely posture.
"Judging from the age of me and Master Zhao, who rushed to reincarnate first, I'm afraid it's hard to say, right?"
Jiang Chen's words made the housekeeper jump in anger, and he was about to fight back when he found that the curtain of the sedan chair was slowly pulled up.
"Yo, it turned out to be little brother Jiang Chen, I heard that you haven't been at home these days and have gone out of the city?"
Zhao He held a pipe in his hand, slowly spit out a few smoke rings, and then said: "A young and promising person like you should go out and take a look more, so as not to be delayed by his shallow vision." β
"How many young descendants often die under arrogance and arrogance."
Zhao He relied on the old and betrayed the old, and wanted to teach Jiang Chen a lesson, although this kind of quick tongue behavior was a bit naΓ―ve, but he seemed to enjoy it quite a bit.
Jiang Chen said with a smile: "Thank you, Master Zhao, it seems that these are your personal experiences and heartfelt words, I will keep them in my heart, and I will never repeat the mistakes of the past." β
After speaking, he was about to bypass the sedan chair and leave here, and when the two passed by, Zhao He let out a wicked laugh.
"Rushing home? If you have been out for a long time, you should go back early, otherwise you won't know what is happening at home, how dangerous it should be! β
Zhao He obviously had something to say, Jiang Chen couldn't help but become anxious in his heart, the first thing he thought of was Wu Yue, I really don't know if this little girl is safe now?
But even if he was in a hurry, his pace did not speed up at all, because at this time, he must not lose to Zhao He in momentum.
Gu Jun followed, and Jiang Chen said to him: "I'll go home first, you go to the courtyard where the wine is brewed, Zhao He may have taken any action when we are away!" β
"Yes, I'll go!"
The two immediately went their separate ways, and Jiang Chen hurried to catch up, and the scene of home finally appeared in his sight.
In front of the Wu family next door, Wu Yue's figure did not appear, and the surroundings seemed to be quiet, which made Jiang Chen's heart begin to be extremely uneasy.
He didn't step into the house, but went to Wu's house first, and after entering the courtyard, he saw that the gate of Wu's house was closed, and when he was about to call out Wu Yue's name, there was a scream from the backyard.
"Ahh
It's Wu Yue's voice!
Jiang Chen ran quickly to the backyard, and then he saw that Wu Yue's body was covered with blood, and at that moment Jiang Chen's heart was almost suffocated.
"Oh, Brother Chen, you're finally back!"
Wu Yue was holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and he rushed towards Jiang Chen excitedly, and things were changing a little too fast, so that Jiang Chen didn't have time to react.
But when Wu Yue reached out to hug him, he saw a big rooster behind him who had just been half-killed, still fluttering desperately on the ground at this time.
"Brother Chen, did I scare you, I was about to kill the chicken just now, but this big rooster was too strong and splashed my blood!"
"It's okay, as long as you're safe."
The big stone in Jiang Chen's heart finally fell, as long as Wu Yue didn't have an accident, then everything would be fine!
