Chapter 68: Worship as a National Teacher

With Sword Venerable as the national teacher, this is definitely a powerful weight in the countries of the Western Regions, but it is a dilemma to face the threat of the Sword Cultivation Sect in the Western Regions. Zenit didn't dare to be arbitrary, so he could only let Celilian wait here, and he hurriedly entered the palace and told the little king the truth.

In Zenit's eyes, Smorek was only 11 years old, but he was more like a king than his brother. After telling the truth one by one, Smolek touched his golden hair, looked at the general in front of him with his big clear eyes, and said in simple words: "General Langfang, do you trust Xiao Huang?"

Zenit said: "I am not familiar with Xiao Huang, but in the process of dealing with Donne, I can see that he is a bold and upright person. This time, the Western Regions Sword Cultivation Sect framed him, I think I am afraid that there are indeed other reasons. ”

In other words, the general trusts Xiao Huang. ”

Zenit hesitated: "I don't know either. Xiao Huang and the witch are indeed too close, it makes sense to say that he has a close relationship with the demon gate, but looking at him as a person, he doesn't look like a big traitor. ”

"Don't be suspicious of employing people, the competition for the king of the Western Regions has spread in the countries of the Western Regions, if we don't prepare as soon as possible, sooner or later we will be blackmailed, since the general said that Xiao Huang is not a big traitor, then we should trust him." The qi of the Sword Venerable protects my Fort Lang Country, and my Fort Lang Country should also become Xiao Huang's strong backing. ”

"What Your Majesty said is, then I will go and invite Xiao Huang. ”

"Wait, Xiao Huang is not only a sword venerable, but also helps my Fort Lang Kingdom get rid of such scourges as Donne, speaking of which, it is indeed not easy to move. I should personally invite him, not only to treat him with courtesy and kindness as a national teacher, but also to worship him as a teacher and teach me sword cultivation and the way of governing the country. ”

Zenit was overjoyed and said: "If my lord can treat the virtuous like this, the Baolang Kingdom will inevitably become the king of the Western Regions, so I will prepare." ”

In the tavern, Meng Xiaoran and Yin Mei have been here for a day and a night. The required money was not given, and the owner of the tavern saw that the two of them were damaged, and there were sword wounds, thinking that they must be down-and-out people, but because he was afraid of the other party's martial arts, he didn't dare to drive them away directly, but there was a lot of sarcasm in his words.

was called by Meng Xiaoran to prepare wine and food again, and the tavern junior pouted: "Eat and eat, live and live, you have to pay the money first." ”

Inmei's face flushed when she heard this, because they really didn't have any money on them. But Meng Xiaoran was very calm, and said, "Why, are you afraid that I won't be able to give it." ”

The little second said in a joking tone: "Hey, don't say it, there are really a lot of people who run away after eating here." But this little brother, I don't think you're a wicked person, and my shopkeeper also said it. Pay some money and leave, he also knows that he can't afford to offend you cultivators. ”

"Pay some money? Heh, speaking of which, you're really underestimating us. The shopkeeper, even if you take your wine and food, someone will pay. And not only is it a lot of money, but it will also be rewarded to you. ”

The shopkeeper only said that this person was indeed crazy, but he didn't dare to say it anymore, so he was busy discussing countermeasures with the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper pursed his lips, not trusting the customer to pay, so he said, "Serve him the leftovers from the kitchen or something." ”

After listening to the order, the shopkeeper sorted out the leftovers in the kitchen and put them in front of Meng Xiaoran. How could Meng Xiaoran, who started as a low-level handyman, not be able to see the hands and feet of these meals, he looked up at Xiao Er and said, "Have you ever been clean?"

"Anyway, if you can eat it. ”

Meng Xiaoran didn't eat, but only drank water. Looking into the distance, it seems that he is waiting for something. Finally, a flag appeared in the middle of the desert, and behind it, a line of honor guards came out. On the banner is written the three characters of Baolang Country.

This kind of formation is rare in a small shop here, and it also makes the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper go out to look at it, and they are still talking about what kind of person this is. Some travelers also poked out, saw the big banner and recognized it as the honor guard of the king of the Baolang Kingdom. Suddenly, the crowd was noisy again, but I didn't expect that the direction of the honor guard was really this tavern.

The shopkeeper was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

A soldier stepped forward to ask questions, but was stopped by Zenit, who turned out to be the general himself and asked, "Are there a man and a woman in your shop, who are dressed with sword wounds?" ”

How could the shopkeeper and Xiao Er not know, they immediately thought of Meng Xiaoran and the others, and nodded hurriedly. Zenit was overjoyed and turned back to report to Smorek. Smolek came out of the carriage and told everyone to wait outside, and he and Zenit went in person.

As soon as he entered the door, Zenit saw Meng Xiaoran again, he was an acquaintance, and he echoed first. When Smorek heard this, he bowed respectfully and said, "Student Smorek, meet Sword Venerable Xiao Huang." ”

As soon as he heard this, the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper suddenly had black eyes, their legs weakened, and they knelt on the ground and never got up again. Jianzun! Their small shop actually let Jianzun eat leftovers! I don't even know how to write the word dead! The kings of the Western Regions have been treated politely when they see Jianzun-level figures, not to mention them grass people.

Meng Xiaoran sat there calmly, looking Smolek up and down, the child's eyes were full of wisdom and maturity that did not match his age. Let's not talk about whether he is a good king or not, but at least he is a leader with spirit.

"You don't know me, why do you call yourself a student?"

Smolek said: "General Langfang has long mentioned that Mr. will help my Fort Lang Country eradicate Donne, and Mr. is the benefactor of my Fort Lang Country, so he deserves this courtesy." What's more, I have come this time to invite Mr. Xiang to return to the country of Baolang with me, and I will respect him as a teacher of the king and teach me the truth. ”

"Hmph, you want to apprentice. ”

"It's not just about apprenticeship, it's about worshipping the country. The position of the national teacher of the Baolang country is none other than Mr. Smorek's body has been completely bent down, expressing enough sincerity.

In Meng Xiaoran's mind, all the memories of General Chapu resurfaced, when he came out of the Chapu Xingmen, he had already sworn to protect the kingdom of Langbao, and this time when he saw Smolek, he seemed to feel that all this was providence.

"If I promise you, you will know the consequences of the Fort Corridor Kingdom. ”

"Of course I do. Mr. broke with the Western Regions Sword Cultivation Sect, I have sent someone to find out this, but it is obvious that those people accused Mr. of colluding with the Demon Sect in an attempt to harm the Western Regions Sword Cultivation Sect, but on that day, Mr. had already defeated Du Xin and became the strongest person in Kunlun on the sword. But the result is not like this, the sword cultivation master of the Western Regions is not only partially safe and sound, but Mr. is also injured, this kind of reason, it doesn't make sense at all, it can be seen that Mr. has a lot of relationship with the Demon Sect, but he does not have the intention of harming the Western Regions Sword Cultivation Sect. Since Mr. is above board, the truth will come out sooner or later. At this moment, the country of Baolang is willing to be the backing of Mr., and please also ask Mr. to help me prosper the country of Baolang. ”

This is Meng Xiaoran's only thought, he is only eighteen, but this 11-year-old child makes him feel that age is nothing at all. A question that a child can figure out, why can't those elders figure it out, or really like what Qian Lilian said, those people don't want to think about it at all, they just want to exclude Meng Xiaoran.

Well, since it is providential, then follow its providence. He got up, helped Smorek up and said, "I promise to be your national teacher, and I also promise to be your master." You must also promise me three conditions. ”

"Please speak up, sir. ”

"First. I will return to the Fortress Country with you, but within half a year, I will not be involved in all things in the Fortress Country. I'm not going to teach you anything, you need to find a place for me to retreat quietly, and after half a year, I'll officially get involved in the affairs of the Fortress Corridor. ”

"Naturally. I asked Mr. for a long time, not in a moment, half a year, I can afford to wait. ”

"Second, within half a year, I estimate that the Sword Cultivation Sect of the Western Regions will inevitably come back to trouble me, and I am afraid that the world will be turned upside down and I will not be able to deal with it. It's just that this is my personal matter, and it has nothing to do with the Fort Corridor Country. Therefore, once the Western Regions Sword Cultivation Sect or other sects come to me in trouble, the Fort Lang Kingdom cannot use a single soldier to help me, and I will decide everything. If I intervene, I'll leave the Fort Corridor Country immediately. ”

Meng Xiaoran's move was actually to repay General Chapu, he didn't want to implicate the Baolang Kingdom because of his own affairs.

Smolek was silent, but did not respond immediately, only said, "Sir, please tell me the third thing." ”

Meng Xiaoran said: "The third thing is. As a national teacher and your teacher, what I have to do is definitely not to settle for a corner of the Western Regions. If you don't have ambitions, you don't have to invite me. Therefore, my third thing is to ask you to swear that you must become the king of the Western Regions. ”

Hearing this, Smolek knelt on the ground without the slightest hesitation, and swore to the sky: "I, Smorek, as the king of the Fort Corridor Country, can swear that the Fort Corridor Country will definitely not be biased, and I am ambitious, the king of the Western Regions." Moreover, I may have acceded to the second request of the gentleman, because if he dared to say the third request, he showed his confidence in himself. Sir is so confident in himself, I naturally don't worry that Mr. will be entangled by the so-called sect and trouble. ”

"Hmph, your brain is spinning pretty fast. ”

Smorek said: "I have already agreed to the three requests, sir, can Mr. go back to the Fort Corridor Country with me." ”

Meng Xiaoran nodded and said, "Naturally, but before leaving." And ask the king to lend me some coins, and I will eat here, and I have not given me any money. ”

"That's easy to say. Smorec ordered his men to deliver it for ten times the coin.

The shopkeeper and the shopkeeper took the coin with trembling hands, and they were already too frightened to know what to say. Seeing this, Meng Xiaoran walked up to the shopkeeper, pointed to the leftovers on the table and said, "Have you ever been clean?"

The shopkeeper's legs were weak, and he was so frightened that he collapsed there, supported his body and crawled to the table, grabbed the leftovers on the plate with his hands, and stuffed them into his mouth.

People are dogs, but dogs also have dignity, not to mention, people are not dogs after all! Meng Xiaoran lightly clicked with his hand, snapped, and the table and plate were broken together, and he didn't let the shopkeeper continue to eat, leaving only one sentence: "Help me give him the table and plate money again." ”

He left with his back, only a little chic. The dishes on the table are broken, and everything starts from scratch. Xiao Huang, a disciple of Tianyumen, is not here, from now on, he will be the national teacher of the Baolang Country, Xiao Huang!
