Chapter 178: Song Zhong is missing
Chen Yan led the soldiers to repair the scene for about three days, and finally repaired the city wall of Chang'an City back to its original appearance, but although it looked like this, the actual strength was not as good as one-tenth of the previous one.
If you want to completely restore the previous sturdiness, the effort in it is at least enough for Chen Yan to be busy for three days.
But fortunately, the work in the general direction has been completed, and there is no need to do it yourself. Chen Yan hired several good men who built the city wall with a high salary, and he took time to rest for a few days.
Although Cai Yan and Xing'er are angry, the two girls are more fierce, but fortunately, no one is a person who holds grudges, after a few days of hard work, Chen Yan has been forgiven for the evil deeds he has done, and Chen Yan still doesn't seem to believe that such a big good thing happened to him.
Just after noon on this day, Chen Yanshang was resting in his house, and suddenly the family hurriedly came in and reported loudly: "Master! Master! Jia Xu's military division is here! ”
Although Chen Yan has been with Guo Jia, a great think tank, in the battle of Chang'an, after all, Jia Xu is his first strategist, and he attaches no less importance to Jia Xu than Guo Jia. Now that the poisoner Jia Xu finally came to Chang'an, Chen Yan was naturally surprised and delighted, he jumped up from the bed and said, "Where is he now?" ”
Jia Ding said: "I have arrived at the gate of the city and am greeting Mr. Guo Jia. ”
Chen Yan didn't say a word, ran away, ran to the door, only to see Wang Yue holding his sword, standing aside coldly, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
In other words, this Wang Yue really has a bit of a temper, although he is a bodyguard, he has never been as low as a bodyguard, but he has a bit of the style of being an emperor. Ordinary day and night, standing at the door of Chen Yan's mansion like a stone lion, accompanied by two big tigers not far away. According to Wang Yue's own words, "I'm at this station, don't even think about beating you Chen Yan's idea."
Chen Yan trusted Wang Yue very much, and didn't care at all that the two had talked about life and death not long ago. However, Wang Yue's arrogant face made Chen Yan very uncomfortable.
Wang Yue never called Chen Yan a "master" and a "master", and even Chen Yan's official position would not be called, if the situation required it, Wang Yue would only call him "Chen Yan".
"Is this still the relationship between the bodyguard and the boss...... Chen Yan said angrily, "This is obviously the rhythm of me begging him to show me the nursing home!" ”
The more Chen Yan thought about it, the more angry he became, so he simply pursed his lips and ignored Wang Yue.
Wang Yue saw that Chen Yan ignored him, but he was not angry, he suddenly opened his legs, followed Chen Yan, and left outside the mansion together.
Although Wang Yue's values and outlook on life are very distorted, if you talk about the job of a bodyguard, Wang Yue still does it very well, which is completely in line with his remuneration.
Chen Yan naturally knew that Wang Yue was following him, and because of this, Chen Yan was more steadfast in his heart.
Wang Yue and Chen Yan kept a very delicate distance, this distance was not far or close, it just happened that Chen Yan could see him, and it just happened that others couldn't see that he was Chen Yan's "dogleg......
Chen Yan went out in a hurry and forgot to ride a horse, and it took a long time for him to react. But fortunately, Chen Yan is running as fast as flying, and he really doesn't need a horse.
It didn't take long to arrive at the city gate, Chen Yan raised his eyes, and saw an army in front of him, and at first glance it was Jia Xu and his party who had just returned from Dingyuan City.
Jia Xu is still white-faced and beardless, with a full face of the city, but fortunately, his eyes are wise and peaceful, which makes people think that he is a harmless character.
And Guo Jia is even more pale and unhealthy, with a face that can't wait to write "I have a terminal illness, no one can cure me", he is chatting with Jia Xu enthusiastically, presumably in Guo Jia's opinion, Jia Xu's IQ level of friends is really not much, so he is so enthusiastic.
Guo Jia coughed a few times from time to time when he spoke, but the situation was much better than before, and it seemed that the "thousand-year-old blood jade" generously given by Chen Yan really worked.
However, Chen Yan was naturally not so generous, although this blood jade was given to Guo Jia for the time being, it would still have to come back sooner or later.
After all, this piece of blood jade is related to the lifeblood of the Han Dynasty......
"Mr. Jia Xu!" Chen Yan shouted loudly, like a naughty student who saw a teacher who liked it.
Jia Xu smiled when he heard this, looked back at Chen Yan, and said, "Congratulations on the promotion of the lord to the general of the Yulin Zhonglang!" ”
Chen Yan stepped forward quickly, waved his hand, and said, "Hey, we have an old friendship, so we don't have to be polite." ”
After that, Chen Yan pulled Jia Xu, looked around, and found that there was no change in this military division, and hurriedly continued to ask: "Why did Jia Xu's military division suddenly come to Chang'an, how is our Dingyuan City doing?" What happened to Zhang Xiu and Xu Huang's injuries? ”
Jia Xu frowned a little when he saw that Chen Yan had asked so many questions at once, but he still replied in an orderly manner: "Everything is fine in Dingyuan City, and General Yang Feng is presiding over there." Zhang Xiu and Xu Huang are recovering well, but if they want to go into battle, I'm afraid it will take some time......"
Chen Yan listened with relish.
Jia Xu continued: "I came here this time, mainly because Song Zhong ......."
Chen Yan hurriedly stirred up and asked, "What's wrong with Old Song?" ”
Jia Xu said: "General Song Zhong went to pursue Lu Bu's messenger, he may have arrived in the territory of Xiliang, a few days ago he sent a letter back to say that he couldn't catch up, but then he lost his trace, I don't know if he has made a detour back to Chang'an ......?" ”
Hearing this, Chen Yan's heart suddenly cooled, shook his head and said, "Old Song, he didn't go back to Chang'an?" I thought he went back to Dingyuan Stone City, didn't he go back? ”
Jia Xu nodded and said, "No, the few scouts I sent out also had no news of Song Zhong, and they couldn't find any trace of him at all......
Chen Yan was a little anxious, pacing back and forth: "It shouldn't be...... When Lao Song left, he brought with him the best brothers in the Yue Cavalry Battalion, although there were not many of them, they were all elites......"
Guo Jia hurriedly persuaded: "Don't panic, lord, or I'll send General Huang Zhong out of the city to find out?" ”
Jia Xu waved his hand and said: "No need, if you talk about the geographical location, Dingyuan City is closer to the place where Lao Song disappeared, and the scouts I have set up are very dense, if Lao Song comes back from Xiliang, he will definitely not escape their eyes......"
Chen Yan asked, "What do you mean...... Old Song disappeared in Xiliang and never came back?! ”
Jia Xu sighed, his expression suddenly became very solemn, and with a little sadness and helplessness, he said, "I'm afraid it's like this......"
Chen Yan only felt that his eyes were dark, and he almost couldn't stand up after that...... Chen Yan knows Lao Song's ability, not to mention the wolf-like soldiers in Xiliang, the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army and the remnants of Dong Zhuo, if Lao Song encounters them, the chance of survival is very small.
Lao Song was the first person to follow Chen Yan, and now that Li Su has rebelled, Lao Song is left!
Although Lao Song tried to bully Chen Yan, who had just joined the Yue Cavalry Battalion, at the beginning, after all, he had been loyal since then. Poor old Song has disappeared so quietly now!
The more Chen Yan thought about it, the more anxious he became, and kept shouting in his heart: "Old Song, you are a lucky general, you can't have an accident, you can't have an accident......
But it's useless to be in a hurry. Chen Yan naturally understood this, he and Jia Xu and Guo Jia discussed for a long time, and the final result was only to wait.
After all, Chang'an City and Dingyuan Stone City have a lot of things that Chen Yan needs to deal with, and at this time, if it is for Lao Song to mess up the entire strategic deployment, it will be more than worth the loss.
Although Chen Yan was anxious, he was helpless.
……
After a hard day's work, the moon gradually rose in the east, and the sky became dark.
Chen Yan placed Jia Xu, and then walked on the empty street of Chang'an City, the street was empty at this time, and the good people all went home, and no one appeared outside.
Wang Yue hung a long sword and walked far behind, although the distance was very far, it also gave Chen Yan enough security.
Gradually walked through the long street and turned into the alley, and suddenly, Chen Yan only felt that the surroundings were strangely quiet.
The alley was very quiet before, but it was not so quiet, so quiet that even Chen Yan's own footsteps could not be heard......
This is a frightening quiet, a quiet that almost suffocates Chen Yan!
"What's going on!" Chen Yan shouted violently, but suddenly found that he didn't hear any sound......
"Oh my God!" Chen Yan screamed in his heart, "Did I bump into a ghost!" ”
At this time, Chen Yan subconsciously wanted to turn back to see where Wang Yue was, could this famous sword god have no power to resist in front of this ghost?
But Chen Yan only felt that his neck was stiff and he couldn't turn it at all......
"Ghost ...... There is a ghost ......" Chen Yan broke down in a cold sweat, and for a while he only felt a sense of fear gradually snatching away the perception of his whole body......
At this moment, something even more creepy happened, Chen Yan only felt a pair of hands, pressing his shoulders......
These were a pair of cold and old hands, old but powerful, so that Chen Yan did not have the strength to move at all...... The feeling of these hands seemed to be somewhat familiar to Chen Yan, but he couldn't say where he remembered touching them......
What's more, Chen Yan was in no mood to think about it at all at this time.
At this moment, suddenly a voice broke the mysterious silence at this moment, this is a sentence, from the owner of the hands on Chen Yan's shoulders......
"Is the Blood Jade with you?"
What a familiar sound! Chen Yan suddenly realized that he finally knew who was coming......
The scene in the ancient tomb was like a reappearance, and in Chen Yan's heart, the name suddenly sounded:
"Nanhua Old Immortal!"
Without waiting for Chen Yan to react, the voice asked again:
"Is the Blood Jade with you?"
Chen Yan shuddered, almost wetting his pants, and he screamed in his heart: "It's over!" Nanhua Old Immortal actually stared at my blood jade, it's sad now...... "But in an instant, Chen Yan was suddenly ecstatic, because he had just given the blood jade to Guo Jia!"
"No...... It's not me......" Chen Yan said tremblingly, with a grievance in his words.
Before Chen Yan finished speaking, his hands suddenly became stronger, and Chen Yan only felt the cold wind passing through his body, and then his limbs began to numb......
