Chapter 213: The Lord of the Kingdom
Yu Meng really didn't chase after him, and the rest of the people didn't chase after him. Li Bochen held his breath again, and then spat out blood, and suddenly felt his chest clear. He said in his heart, if only the method of going to that realm could be used as he thought, like he was injured just now, he could immediately go there to breathe. But if you have to wait for a breath like now, it will really be useless in the battle array.
Seeing that he vomited blood, Fang Yan hurriedly said, "General Li, you ......"
Li Bochen smiled: "Minor injury." How's your arm going?"
After a while, Fang Yan said, "I'm really useless." I thought I was in the Qi Cultivation Realm, and it wouldn't be difficult to deal with those rangers, but it turned out ......"
Li Bochen smiled: "It's not your fault. The rangers in the army are all good men, even if they are not as good as you, their strength is not comparable to ordinary people. Moreover, on the military formation, they know how to advance and retreat and cooperate, and they practice guns every day, even if I rush over, I have to take one or two hits. β
Fang Yi said: "General Li, can you teach me in the future?"
Hearing that there was something wrong with his voice, Li Bochen hurriedly said: "Okay, let's practice slowly." β
At this time, I heard the sound of horns in the two battalions in the rear, and I should have seen that the hundred-man team had not stopped and was ordering troops again. But even if they sent the ironclad car out again, they couldn't catch up. The two of them galloped forward a little further, and the woods got closer and closer. When there were still two or three hundred paces, I saw that the trees in the forest suddenly shook, and suddenly parted to the sides.
Fang Yun was taken aback, and Li Bochen said, "Don't panic, it should be our formation." β
Sure enough, a group of soldiers rushed out of the forest, and two feathered people suddenly appeared in mid-air. When he got closer, he saw a person in front of him with a pair of armor and a sword in his hand, and he rushed over on his horse and shouted, "Cousin!"
It's Chang Qiuwu. Li Bochen really didn't know how he could scream, but when he came, it meant that the two of them were out of danger. He also responded: "Brother Chang!"
When they got closer, Chang Qiuwu shook his horse's head and said, "Quick, go in!"
The two horses rushed into the woods, and the soldiers were retracted. At this time, Li Bochen turned his face to look, and saw that the trees on both sides shook again and closed together.
This is the formation set up by Sui Buxiu, right? Is it a maze?
Chang Qiuwu grabbed his horse and jumped down, ran to the side of the white horse and said, "How are you!?"
His eagerness was written on his face. Seeing him like this, Li Bochen's heart really warmed, and he was about to say, "I'm afraid I'm a little injured", but suddenly caught a glimpse of three people standing not far away.
Two are brown-winged feathered figures wearing leather armor. One of them was covered with shiny half-body fish-scale armor and a bright red robe underneath. At his waist hangs a long sword sheathed with rubies and a crown of five lions in gilt. A face is white and pure but heroic, and a pair of eyes are staring at him without blinking.
It is Sui Bu Xiu.
Li Bochen was stunned, swallowed the words back, and jumped to the ground with one leg without Chang Qiuwu's help. When I landed, I felt a sharp pain in my chest, and my eyes were dark. But he still smiled slightly, and said, "Brother Chang, don't worry, it's just a hundred people." β
He returned the knife to the sheath again, arched his hand to the man, and said in a deep voice: "Sui Gongzi, it has always been good. β
Sui Buxiu showed a smile on his face, and also raised his hand, and said, "General Li, I haven't seen you for a few months, and you have already been a hundred." β
Did he just see what he looked like when he broke the formation? That's pretty good. Li Bochen also smiled: "It's just a hundred people, not a demon beast." Sui Gongzi, is this array arranged with the method of Zhongzhou Enchantment?"
Sui Buxiu said: "No, but it's the same." β
Li Bochen nodded, but he didn't know what to say to him for a while. Sui Buxiu also smiled reservedly, it should be the same thought. Fortunately, Chang Qiuwu said: "Master Sui, thanks to your help." My ancestor is waiting to see my cousin, and if you say hello, let's talk about it later. β
Sui Buxiu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Okay." β
looked at Li Bochen again: "General Li, I'll talk to you later and make amends." β
Li Bochen said: "Sui Gongzi is polite. β
Sui Buxiu took a step back with the two feathered people, turned around and walked away. When they were farther away, Li Bochen said, "Brother Chang, how many people are they here?"
Chang Qiuwu said: "Just these three-who is this?"
"Fang Yuan. A friend of mine. β
Chang Qiuwu looked at Fang Qi and said, "It's not lightly injured, come, let's go together!"
After this forest is the field outside Mengjiatun, Chang Qiuwu brought out more than fifty soldiers, and these people followed behind the three of them. Li Bochen told Chang Qiuwu about the affairs in the city, and then he was distracted to see these soldiers.
Most of them are young and strong, and their bodies are sturdy, with iron armor on their bodies, and swords, guns, swords, and shields in their hands. Just looking at the look of sadness, I can't lift my spirits.
Li Bochen said: "These are the soldiers on Jinghu Mountain? Zhu Houzhen is dead?"
Chang Qiuwu pulled Li Bochen and walked two steps quickly, and said in a low voice: "Cousin grandpa, you tell the truth, did you kill Zhu Hou?"
On the way back, Li Bochen guessed that someone would ask such a question - Xiaoman left that day, and he also left, and then Zhu Hou died violently. Someone must have linked Zhu Hou's death to himself, an outsider.
In fact, he also thought about whether to tell the Chang family about Xiaoman, but before entering Hou City, he didn't make up his mind. But now that he knows that Sui Buxiu is here, there is nothing to hide.
On the night in Wuliang City, Sui didn't stop letting himself go, just because he found out that his surname was Li and he was a spirit master. At that time, they may not have thought that they were surnamed Li, but now that they have seen them here, they should have understood what was going on in their hearts, and they couldn't hide it for long.
Li Bochen sighed and said, "I didn't do it." But it also has something to do with me. We...... Let's go back and talk about it. β
Chang Qiuwu grabbed his sleeve and said, "Okay, let's go back and talk about it." β
But after catching it like this, I didn't let go. Li Bochen said in his heart, he was afraid that he would be like last time - he saw Zhu Hou last time, and he also said, "Let's talk about it when I go back." But that time, it was more than 20 days apart. Chang Qiuwu is in his forties, but he is not as steady as he seems, but he seems to be a hairy boy, which is also interesting.
By the time they reached the town, it was a different weather. The streets were empty, and the shops on both sides were almost closed. Walking out of the town and going up the slope, everyone is closed. After walking a little further, I saw my house in the distance. Li Bochen's heart was sour, and he hurriedly looked away.
When they arrived in front of the Chang family's house, Chang Qiuwu asked the soldiers to disperse, and the three of them entered the door.
He summoned a maid and asked her to take Fang Yi to wrap the wound, and then pulled Li Bochen's sleeve all the way to the second courtyard. He walked in a hurry, Li Bochen followed him and walked a few steps quickly, and finally couldn't help coughing, and coughed up a mouthful of blood all of a sudden.
Chang Qiuwu was startled and said, "What's the matter!?"
Li Bochen waved his hand and said, "It is estimated that a few bones in the chest are broken, and it is not a big deal." β
Chang Qiuwu glared: "This is not a big deal!?
Pulled Li Bochen to the door of the main room, raised a hand and gave a random salute, and said in a hurry that the old ancestor Qiuwu asked to see him, so he quickly pushed the door open.
Li Bochen saw Chang Xiu. Today he wore a brown coat and a crown of gauze, and sat upright on a chair in the hall, with the old god there. Seeing Chang Qiuwu push the door and walk in, his brows furrowed slightly, and he was about to speak. But Chang Qiuwu said: "Ancestor, my cousin is injured!
Chang Xiu was stunned for a moment, stood up suddenly, and said, "Where is the injury?"
walked over quickly, grabbed Li Bochen's wrist and put it on the pulse.
Li Bochen's heart moved, and he couldn't speak. When I entered Chang's house, I was still thinking about how Chang Xiu would treat himself, how to talk to him, and how to test their attitude. I can see the appearance of these two people, and I can't remember all those thoughts. beat him to come to this world, only Xiaoman has been so good to him for more than 20 days, and now that she is gone, he thought that he would never taste that taste again, but he didn't expect to experience a familiar feeling in this room at this time.
These thoughts swirled in his mind, and he only felt that his eyes were slightly hot, and he couldn't help but call his grandfather. But another thought suddenly popped out again, making his heart cold again-Xiao Man did the same to himself at the beginning, but then Xiao Man left. Now my grandfather, is it true or false?
He gritted his teeth and closed his mouth.
At this time, Chang Xiu let go of his hand and said, "I broke three bones, and I didn't hurt my internal organs." β
took a step back, looked at Li Bochen carefully, and said, "Good, good, good, this is my grandson." β
He took another deep breath, raised his hand and straightened the crown on his head, and his face calmed down.
Li Bochen was stunned for a while, and Chang Qiuwu was busy saying on the side: "Cousin Grandpa!"
Li Bochen understood what he meant, thought about it again, leaned down, and said, "Grandpa, be worshiped by your grandsonβ"
But as soon as he only bent over, Chang Xiu reached out and hugged him, saying, "No!"
He said again: "Qiuwu, come here." β
Chang Qiuwu walked up to him. Chang Xiu suddenly knelt on the ground and made a big salute. Chang Qiuwu was stunned, and then knelt down with a puff and knocked his head down.
When Li Bochen first saw his actions, his heart was tight, and he didn't know what he was going to do. When he reacted again, before he had time to stop him, he heard Chang Xiu say in a deep voice: "The old minister is always resting, bow to the lord of the country!"
Li Bochen was stunned for a while, and then he hurriedly knelt down to pick Chang Xiu up, and said, "Grandpa, what are you doing!"
But as soon as Chang Xiu grabbed his arm, Li Bochen felt that his hands seemed to be clamped by iron clamps - it was the first time he had seen someone who could completely suppress himself in terms of strength!
I heard Chang Xiu say again: "Qiuwu!"
Chang Qiuwu hurriedly bowed again, and said, "Minister Chang Qiuwu, bow to the lord of the country!"
Chang Xiu grabbed Li Bochen's hand and stood up, and said: "Bochen, you have the luck of Emperor Beichen, and you should be the lord of Li Guo, and in the future, you must not worship others again, even me." β
Li Bochen used to think about family affection, but now that he has experienced this, his heart is much calmer. Chang Xiu knew that he had Beichen luck, it was Sui Buxiu who said it, right? It's just that he didn't expect that there was such a thing as "don't worship others". was first called "cousin grandpa" by Chang Qiuwu, who was older than him, and now he was worshiped by this grandfather, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
His grandfather used to be the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and he was in charge of etiquette, but if he shouted his lord every day and bowed down at every turn, it would be really fatal.
He had to smile bitterly and said, "...... Grandpa, now that we're at home, let's talk to our own family, so don't pay attention to this, right?"
Chang Qiuwu also stood up and said, "Yes, Ancestor, Grandpa Cousin is a casual person, and Grandpa Cousin is also polite at home, but I'm afraid that Grandpa Cousin will not be used to it." β
Chang Xiu Zhengse said: "The state weapon has been broken for more than ten years, how can you not even want etiquette? Without the edict of the lord of the country, these etiquettes should still be followed." β
Li Bochen sighed and said, "Grandpa, just let me issue an edict and tell you not to worship again, okay?"
Chang Xiu bowed down and bowed, "Obey." β
Chang Qiuwu was also busy: "Obey." β
Li Bochen sighed in his heart again - this is really uncomfortable. He thought that the Chang family would be careful about testing him, but he never expected this scene.
Chang Xiu straightened his waist and said, "Lord of the country, please take a seat." β
Li Bochen knew at this time that he couldn't excuse himself, and his body was really painful, so he had to slowly walk to the hall and sit down. Waiting for him to sit down, Chang Xiu said, "Qiuwu, go get the medicine." β
Chang Qiuwu answered and went to the east house. Chang Xiu sat down with his head down, his hands resting on his knees, motionless and not speaking.
Li Bochen had a lot to say. But when he saw him like this, he didn't know how to speak, so he had to sit with him. When Chang Qiuwu brought the medicine, Chang Xiu said again: "Lord of the country, please use the medicine." After taking this medicine and pranayama for another night, you will be cured. β
Li Bochen picked up the pill in Chang Qiuwu's hand and ate it, saw him bow down and take two steps back, and sat down.
The three of them sat in the hall like this for a while, Li Bochen couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "Grandpa-"
Chang Xiu immediately leaned away and made the appearance of listening carefully.
Li Bochen said: "Grandpa, can I not be the lord of this country first?"
When he said this, he paused, and waited for Chang Xiu to speak. But Chang Xiu only listened and didn't say a word. Li Bochen had no choice but to say again: "Grandpa, you can say something." β
When he called "grandpa" for the first time, he still felt a little awkward in his heart. But now that I say it well, I feel that it is like "Mr. Chang Lao". Li Bochen thought to himself, and he didn't know if it was because of Chang Xiu's behavior - when he first saw himself, he did seem to have some joy from the bottom of his heart. But that joy was quickly suppressed by the word "li", and the family affection in this title was much weaker.
In fact, he didn't want this, but hoped that Chang Xiu could call himself "grandson" as beforeβalthough his grandson was not a full pound, but he could feel better.
Chang Xiu heard what he said and said, "Is the lord of the country giving an edict?"
Li Bochen smiled bitterly: "I just want to hear your opinions." Besides, there are some things that you may not be aware of. β
Chang Xiu said: "Please show the lord of the country." β
Li Bochen glanced at Chang Qiuwu, and saw that he was also sitting precariously at this time, and he couldn't see any thoughts. He wanted to talk about Xiaoman, but he couldn't make up his mind for a while. But after thinking about it, that thing can't be hidden. Besides, these things had been stored heavily in his heart for a long time, and it would be better if he could really say it. Then he turned his heart sideways and said, "The one who came here with me before, my lady, is actually called Sui Manshu." β
