Chapter Twenty-Nine: Threesome
"It's really not good, only to rush at night. Xu Qingsheng sighed, but he was not in a hurry, and seemed to be at ease.
"But what if you can't see the road when it's dark? If you fall off the cliff, you'll be doomed. Hua Xiaolou said worriedly.
"My eyes are good, I can see in the dark, and if I can see a little moonlight and starlight, I can see under my feet. Xu Qingsheng said to the two.
"I'm afraid that tonight won't be as you wish," Tianchen looked up at the sky and sighed helplessly: "I look at the sky, there is no starlight tonight, I'm afraid it will be pitch black, and I can't see my fingers." ”
Xu Qingsheng said curiously: "Brother Chen, can you understand the celestial phenomena?"
"I know a thing or two. "Tianchen is not talking nonsense, he is the Venerable Star God of the Immortal Domain, in charge of the heavens and stars, he is familiar with astronomical stars, and it is not too simple to observe the stars and observe the heavens.
Hua Xiaolou said with a look of disbelief: "Brother Chen, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that astronomical phenomena are so mysterious and mysterious, how can we understand it? ”
Tianchen is not happy, you think Xuan, I don't think it! Don't think of this genius as you!
Xu Qingsheng didn't question it, but said with a smile: "There are always many strange people in the world who can't do it, I don't think it's strange that Brother Chen can understand astronomical stars, the first time I saw you, I always felt that you were different." ”
Tianchen was very helpful when he heard this, and said with a smile: "The first time I saw you, I felt the same way, and I felt that you were the dragon and phoenix among people, an extraordinary person. ”
The two nodded and looked at each other, feeling very sympathetic to each other, and the heroes felt the same thing, and they were full of emotion for a while.
"Then what the hell are we going to do?" Hua Xiaolou sighed: "It didn't seem that the selection was too difficult before. ”
Xu Qingsheng said: "I see that the number of soldiers in Pingyang County this year is five or six thousand, and I am afraid that because there are many people, some of them will be eliminated by increasing the difficulty."
In fact, what Brother Chen just said is just to consider the thinking of ordinary people in a hurry, in fact, people often burst out with strong perseverance when they achieve their goals and pursuits.
Only with perseverance can you pass the test and become the talent that the military camp really wants. I think that's what the county government is trying to do. ”
Tianchen admired: "You're right, you directly saw the essence of the problem, which I didn't notice." ”
Xu Qingsheng smiled: "But the key depends on what you think of, I think you should have thought about it." ”
Tianchen smiled slightly.
"There's another issue after going up the mountain, and that's the temperature. The mountain is very high, and the temperature gets lower the higher you go, and I guess there is even ice and snow at the top of the mountain. With the clothes we are wearing now, I am afraid that we will choke on the cold when we go up. ”
"As warriors, we are physically strong, and we can endure the cold for a while. "Hua Xiaolou doesn't care, but Tianchen does.
"When you arrive at Qinghan Mountain, you speed up your pace and go first, I know that with your martial arts, walking and hurrying is beyond the reach of people, but I am tired. ”
"Where is Brother Chen, if you want to go together, I will never leave you. Hua Xiaolou Yi Bo Yuntian patted his chest and said.
Xu Qingsheng also smiled: "Xu fell in love with Brother Chen and Brother Hua, and they hit it off at first sight. If you regard Xu as a friend, you will mention this again. ”
Tianchen's heart warmed, and he said, "Since they are all brothers, I'm not welcome." But when you get to Qinghan Mountain, you still have to go first. ”
Seeing that the two wanted to argue, Tianchen hurriedly said, "Don't worry, you listen to me first." Try to speed up the hill before it gets dark and look for some materials to make torches. When it gets dark, you will make a fire and light your torches, and we will have a light to make our way all night. ”
"Then Brother Chen, what should you do?" Hua Xiaolou interrupted: "Besides, we have nothing on us, what can we use to start a fire?"
"There is a way to make a fire, but in this case, I am afraid that I can only drill wood to make a fire. However, this method takes a long time, usually it takes an hour or two, Brother Chen wants to catch up with us when we stop to make fire, but how do you hurry after dark?"
Xu Qingsheng understood what Tianchen meant, although it was time-consuming and laborious to make the fire, it was exchanged for time at night, so that there was enough time to rush back to the city.
"I was born with the ability to see darkly, even without a bit of light. Tianchen proudly showed off: "Talented, I'm also helpless." ”
(Cold-field here...... )
Xu Qingsheng found that there was a thin boy behind him, following them, and had been listening to their conversation, as if he was eavesdropping on their methods of breaking through. He didn't mind, but instead opened his mouth to talk to him.
"What is this little brother called? If you don't dislike it, let's go together. ”
Hua Xiaolou had no opinion, and Tianchen didn't object to it but didn't agree either, just watched coldly.
The young man glanced at them, and seemed to be a little moved, and after thinking about it, he stopped talking, and ran ahead of them.
Hua Xiaolou was a little dissatisfied, "This person is so rude." Xu Qingsheng smiled indifferently and didn't care at all.
Tianchen had already been attracted by the several paper cranes flying overhead in the air, and he asked:
"This is the surveillance spell cast by the instructors of the Pingyang Academy?"
Xu Qingsheng explained: "The thousand paper cranes are used to monitor us, but the people in the academy don't say magic, only supernatural powers. In fact, the principle is similar to magic, but it is different. ”
Tianchen was deeply interested in this, and the three of them began to discuss the similarities and differences between supernatural powers, magic techniques, and martial arts.
At the same time, in the Binh Duong County Mansion, the county guard and the county lieutenant were drinking tea and chatting together.
"Lord Li, what do you think about Lu Hou's arrangement of his young son into our Pingyang Mansion military camp this time?" asked Hua Shaofeng.
Li Mingting, the county guard, held the tea tray, gently opened the lid of the cup, took a sip of it, and said indifferently:
"Lu Hou is also from our Muzhou, so he naturally knows that the strength of our Pingyang County Government Army is the best in a state, and it is reasonable for him to put his young son in our military camp to exercise, what does Huada think?"
Hua Shaofeng was speechless, so he could only scold in his heart: "Li Mingting, you old fox who can't slip your hands, everyone knows it, why do you have to pretend to be confused?"
Once you encounter this kind of sensitive issue, you will start to pretend to be confused, and talk about fake and empty scenes, or you will kick the ball to Lao Tzu. Can you still have a pleasant chat?
So he simply made his words clear, so that the county guard could no longer pretend to be stupid and stunned.
"Master Li, if you want to talk about strength, his Lu Hou's Lu family army, several major armies in the imperial city, and the frontier army are not stronger than us? Why do you have to send us here? The only one we have to implicate with Lu Hou here is Song Xiaoran!
You said that the purpose of his Lu Hou suddenly arranging for his young son to come over, if it doesn't have anything to do with Song Xiaoran, I will write his name upside down!"
Li Mingting teased: "Then you don't lose, Feng Shaohua is much better than you Hua Shaofeng." ”
"Master Li!" Hua Shaofeng was a little angry. When is it, it's still a gag, can you be serious!
Li Mingting saw that he couldn't hide, so he smiled helplessly, "Shaofeng, since you understand what is going on, why do you have to say it? Lu Hou arranged for his son to come over, and the scene was reasonable, and he didn't go through the back door, but let his son come in by himself. Can you stop him?"
Hua Shaofeng said with a gloomy face: "What strength does his son have? Can this kind of selection be difficult for him? I'm surprised, Song Xiaoran is already like this, and he can only wait for death in this life, what else is there to worry about for those big names of them?"
Li Mingting persuaded: "Let's not care about the plans of those big people, let alone try to use the mantis arm as a car, otherwise I am afraid that there will be no good results if you are implicated." You can leave this matter alone and let it be. As long as Lu Liang complies with the rules, let's just turn a blind eye. ”
Hua Shaofeng said angrily: "Of course you don't care, but can I not care? Back then, Song Xiaoran was the one I watched grow from a cloth cloth to an immortal genius step by step, and he was my soldier!
In order to protect him, I can only ignore him, let him be muddy, leave him to fend for himself, and make some people feel that there is no threat before I am willing to put him to death. ”
"Huada!" Li Mingting was also angry, "Some words, trouble comes from the mouth." We have known each other for many years, and it has nothing to do with you saying that it is natural for me to listen, but if you listen to others, you know what will happen.
Song Xiaoran, who had not met for thousands of years, didn't mean that he would be ruined, do you think you can carry an old bone? Lu Hou did things according to the rules this time, so we can't interfere, everything will go naturally. ”
Hua Shaofeng also calmed down, and he said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then we will all act according to the rules." If Lu Liang complies with the rules, I have no second word, and if he violates the rules, I will never tolerate it. ”
"Shaofeng!alas-" Li Mingting sighed helplessly, he knew Hua Shaofeng, he was a stubborn donkey, and he would never change what he believed, and it was useless to persuade him, so he didn't say more.
At this moment, someone from below came to report. The person who came was Zhang Jiaoxi, who came in a hurry, and after saluting the county guard and the county lieutenant, he reported:
"The two adults, when the next few people found something on the way to the inspection, everyone had different opinions and didn't know how to deal with it, so I came to ask the adults to deal with it. ”
"What do you say? Li Mingting said.
"Here's the thing, we found out that someone hit someone during the selection assessment, was stopped by another group, and then the two sides clashed......"
"Do you still need to ask for instructions for this kind of thing? If you take the initiative to provoke and fight in the assessment, you will be disqualified, do you still need me to say this?" Hua Shaofeng said impatiently.
Li Mingting suddenly felt bad, he understood the ability of the academy to teach, and naturally he would not ask for unnecessary things, since it can make them embarrassed, I am afraid that things are not so simple.
A possibility suddenly flashed through his mind, he thought to himself that it must not be that person, but Zhang Jiaoxi's next words confirmed his intuition.
"But...... But the people who took the initiative to provoke were Lu Liang, the son of Lu Hou, and they didn't know how to deal with it......"
