Chapter 5 Thanksgiving
Li Bochen felt a burst of joy in his heart. The frozen body was immediately removed and buried in the snow, and a snow-free clearing was swept across the ground. took the short sword and cut the wheel of the grain cart with three strokes and five divisions, and ignored Sui Buxiu, who was standing on the sidelines and watching, and directly cut a piece of fire from the remnant flag wrapped around him.
After tossing for more than ten minutes, the fire finally ignited. He let out a sigh of relief, and fell headlong by the fire, feeling that all the strength in his body had been drained.
But after only a short rest, he got up and grabbed the snow on the ground and rubbed his legs.
Sui Buxiu watched from the sidelines, and when he lit a fire, he also sat down with the flag. Li Bochen wiped himself hard and said, "Master Sui, now is not the time to talk about decency. Even if you're in the Dragon and Tiger Realm, your legs have to be scrapped for so long in the North Plains Freeze - rub them like I did. ”
Sui Buxiu only smiled. Sit down cross-legged, place your head between your legs, and make a handprint. In a matter of seconds, the mist rose from him, and his face, which had been frozen white, was rosy again.
Li Bochen sighed enviously and continued to wipe his own legs. A prince like Sui Buxiu has obtained the true transmission of the secret method of the royal temple, and the means used are not much higher than his own. The Dragon and Tiger Realm is the third order, and Li Bochen is now the Spirit Realization Realm, which is the first order. But the technique he learned was the method of battle formation, crude and simple. Even if you can really get the method of the third-order Dragon and Tiger Realm by accumulating military merits in the future, you can't compare it with Sui Buji.
Thinking of this, he used his spare eyes to look at Sui Buxiu's face. found that this Sui Gongzi's face was gloomy, and he was only looking at the bonfire in a daze. Li Bochen could guess what he was thinking—his father was the Lord of Infinite City, and he was sent by the temple to preside over the construction of a large array. As a result, Lao Tzu's army was defeated and the city was broken, and his son was captured by the demon army. Even if his father is the younger brother of the current King of Sui, he can't afford this kind of thing. According to the temperament of the king now, Sui Wuyi has to be asked to apologize for his crimes.
And the prince and grandson beside him are probably in a worrying situation after he goes back.
Thinking of this, Li Bochen glanced at the short sword beside him.
Because then he realized that he might have done something very risky.
When he saw Sui Buxiu in the group of demon beasts, he thought about either rescuing him or killing him. That's the habitual thinking that has been cultivated on the battlefield - when you see your comrades, you naturally want to save them. If you can't save it, you have to kill it, so as not to get important news by the monster.
But now that I think about it, for the rescued Sui Buxiu, he is not so likable.
If Sui Buxiu returns to Wuliang City by himself, he can sacrifice his head and operate again, it is this prince who enters the enemy formation and captures the enemy chief after the city is broken. Although this is not a great achievement, it can at least offset the considerable culpability.
But I'm still alive...... Even if his consciousness is high enough, he knows what Sui Buxiu says when he can, and how he should echo it, but can Sui Buxiu rest assured? He would never want anyone to know that he had been captured by demon beasts!
If he is endless, he will plan for his own future and fate......
You'll have to tackle yourself on the snowy field.
Thinking of this, Li Bochen's heart trembled, and his hand became a little heavier. He had to get himself back to his feet...... From the worst side, if this Sui Buxiu really had that kind of thought, he would never wait to die.
At this time, Sui Buxiu opened his mouth and said in a low voice: "I haven't asked yet, what is your name?"
Li Bochen grabbed another handful of snow, rubbed his left leg, and turned sideways, so that the short sword was right next to him, and he could reach it with his hand.
"My name is Li Bochen. Ten generals of the Dongfu Army. ”
"Oh. I've heard of you. Sui Buxiu was still staring at the bonfire, and he seemed to be absent-minded when he spoke, "There are five tigers among the junior officers of the Dongfu Army, and you are counted as the number one." Pei Jin mentioned it. ”
Pei Jin was the commander of the Eastern Military Command stationed in Wuliang City. A few days ago, Li Bochen saw his flag toppled on the battlefield, and he must have died.
What is Sui constantly mentioning this?
Li Bochen didn't answer him immediately, so Sui Buxiu glanced at him: "You saved me, it's a great achievement." What reward do you want?"
I just want you to take revenge. Li Bochen muttered in his heart. But I still thought about it: "I want to go home." ”
Sui Buxiu looked at him unexpectedly, and smiled again: "Go home, you are a ten-general, and you are in charge of ten people, and your salary should not be much." When I go home at this time, what do I live on?"
"I think you have the guts, you might as well be my personal guard. ”
Li Bochen shook his head slightly: "Four years of rotation, I have been six years." Although I am a ten-year general, my salary after full service is 100,000 yuan. I've also ...... over the years."
When he said this, he suddenly stopped, realizing that what Sui Buxiu wanted to talk about was not salary or future.
He was testing himself.
Now Li Bochen is sitting by the warm bonfire, and his head, which was numb from hypothermia before, is gradually coming alive, which makes him remember a lot of details-
From the escape to the present, Sui Buxiu has mentioned "you saved me" twice. When did this kind of prince and grandson learn to appreciate favors?
When the two of them were running in the snow, Sui Buxiu was also shivering from the cold, and his teeth chattered. But he is in the Dragon and Tiger Realm, so he won't be cold like this, right? His own Spirit Realization Realm can be strong in the True Yuan and last for so long!
Sui Bu Nong...... The injury should have been far worse than he had shown!
It must have been a blow when the flesh tube connecting him to the demon spirit was torn off - the two of them should have been under the influence of some powerful spell at the time, and they were broken by themselves and suffered a backlash. Otherwise, there was really no way to explain why that fourth-order demon spirit was so vulnerable, and he actually cut off his head with a short sword.
So he's actually ...... Guessing what you might think, are you courting now?
Li Bochen suddenly felt relieved. He changed his words: "I've been thinking all these years that as long as people live safely, it's good." After fighting on the battlefield for so long, all the friends around me are gone...... I just want to stay alive. ”
He paused and looked at Sui endlessly: "As for the guards...... Childe is surrounded by nobles, where can I afford to provoke him. ”
Sui Buxiu looked at him, and then nodded slowly.
Li Bochen thought that he should understand what he meant. But he also thought that if Sui Buxiu had never had murderous intentions...... How could you worry that you might kill him?
He sighed inwardly, knowing that he was in serious trouble. He decided to escort Sui Buxiu to the vicinity of Wuliang City and then leave, never to return—he did not want to leave his life to the conscience that the prince might have.
In this way, others will only treat him as if he was killed in battle, and he will not be able to receive the salary of 100,000 yuan. But it's better than losing your life.
After making this decision, I felt relieved. He smiled: "Sui Gongzi, what's the matter with that demon spirit? ”
