Chapter Twenty-Seven: Look Northwest and Shoot the Wolf

"This star-chasing horse is a token of love between the eldest mother and the second uncle of the Liu family, and now it is in your hands, my heart is full of doubts!" Wu Tong looked at Liu Chen with blazing eyes, as if he wanted to see Liu Chen through.

"I said I am Liu Yi, do you believe me?" Liu Chen's eyes flickered, and he asked with a seeming right and wrong: "General Wu has fiery eyes, do you have any opinions on this?"

Hearing the word Liu Yi, Wu Tong's face changed a little, and the smile had already disappeared, just staring at Liu Chen, and said with a stern face: "Don't believe it!"

"He's dead!" Wu Tong's eyes were slightly cold, and he said with some hatred: "After the incident, my father sent people to search for more than three months along the Canglan River, and there was no news at all.

"You're pretty good!" Liu Chen's face was a little warm, and he admired those loyal people very much, "But I heard that you were going to kill that Laoshizi Emperor Ji recently, why do you have to get along with a woman?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you!" Wu Tong glanced at Liu Chen, then leaned on the edge of the fence of the stable, and said slowly: "I practice martial arts and cultivate knives, the knife is the overlord of a hundred soldiers, the emphasis is on rigidity, it is straight, the person who cultivates the knife must understand the knife, and it must be like a knife, that woman was originally my brother's fiancée, but now she wants to marry another woman, in my opinion, as a woman, as my eldest mother Yue Guogong, it is natural to observe the festival for the deceased husband, that woman's various behaviors, has made my thoughts inaccessible, if I don't kill her, it is difficult for me to prove the supreme knife in this life!" ”

"You will cause a big disaster like this!" Liu Chen did not agree with Wu Tong's statement, he only understood one truth, that is, everything is good and avoid evil, the husband is alive, he has something to do and something not to do, and he can't bring monstrous disasters to the people around him because of some of his own private affairs, so it is not worth it.

Wu Tong smiled, and didn't argue, just patted Liu Chen's shoulder like that, and then turned around in a dashing manner and walked away.

In a blink of an eye, when it was time for dinner, Liu Chen greeted the little Lori Doudou who was busy, asked her to put down the work in her hand, and took her to the ascetic monk's residence with her, and ate a fast.

Hangu Pass at sunset is particularly mysterious, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkles on the streets of the city, as if putting on a layer of holy clothing, while stuffing the bitter cold, but there is a different style.

Liu Chen took Doudou and sat around the dinner table with two monks, after you came and went, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, raised his head and looked at the ascetic and said lightly: "Great monk, after this war, I have to ask you for my letter of recommendation!"

"It's okay, just wait for my uncle to arrive, and I'll ask for you!" The great monk smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically: "I see that Wu Tong is quite close to you, Wei Guogong is in the city, you don't have to care about my thoughts, the monks don't have so many things, you and my brother live and die, even if you change the organization, for your future, I am very happy!"

"Don't mention it!" Liu Chen waved his hand, sighed softly and said: "That Wu Tong is not a good bird, sooner or later one day he will have to break the sky, for such a troublemaker, we still have to stay away, I don't want to squat back in prison again!"

"The young master wants a letter of recommendation from the academy, I can go to the Grand Duke!" Xiao Lori took a sip of tea, blinked her eyes and looked at Liu Chen and said, "The Grand Duke will definitely agree!"

"No, it's hard to repay the favor, if you want to choose, I'd rather owe it to the great monk!"

"You kid, you are a chicken thief, the thoughts of our monks have been thoroughly pondered by you!" Ascetic shook his head and smiled bitterly, as soon as the words came out, the little monk also laughed shyly, during this period of time, the relationship between them and Liu Chen is very close, life is in the world, friends are rare, not to mention that they are the first time to go down the mountain, to meet a friend like Liu Chen, they also feel very lucky, for Liu Chen's requirements, ascetic has no objections in his heart.

Liu Chen smiled, and no longer spoke, he has walked the rivers and lakes for many years, if he insists on being a friend, wealth is counted as one, ascetic suffering is also counted, life is short, there are three or two confidants, no hooks, no fighting, it is enough.

The sky in the northwest is always dim, even at night, the sea of stars is particularly turbid, Liu Chen is wrapped in a torn leather jacket, standing alone on the corner tower, looking at it from a distance, at the end of the sky, as if there are some sparks.

It was the night light of the Sanggan River, but that night, it was not the border city of the Xia people that was lit, but the blade of the seventy-two tribes in the desert north of the Western Regions.

Since the Holy Ancestor preached the world, there has been a trace of stubborn arrogance buried in the bones of the Xia people, even if Liu Chen, a small person like Liu Chen, who was born and raised in the inland area, is very open in his heart. I can fall, I can sink, but when your horse's hooves resound across my borders, I will take up the sword of my father and brother, I will carry the expectations of my wife and children, I will fight my horse, I will hold my bow, I will look northwest, I will shoot the wolf!

Under the corner tower, the soldiers of the wooden battalion are assembling, the cold armor covers everyone's faces, the scene is very quiet, so quiet that only from time to time I can hear some horses who are not used to walking at night, snorting in annoyance.

Liu Chen stood there, letting Xiao Lori put on clothes and armor for herself, the tempering of war can indeed make people grow up quickly, on Liu Chen's face, the last trace of childishness has long faded, the young man's uniform, impassioned.

"You just stay in the gate and wait for me, at most half a month, I'll be back!" Seeing Xiao Lori's unhappy look, Liu Chen smiled slightly, patted her shoulder and said, "You are not as big as armor, stay in peace, don't make trouble for me!"

Little Lori shrugged the slightly heavy armor on her body, wrinkled her nose slightly, and snorted: "Misery is younger than me, why can he go!"

"He's very good, even though I haven't seen him. ”

"Young master!" Little Lori saw that it was not good, so she drooped her head, stretched out her hand and shook Liu Chen's arm and said coquettishly: "You can bring someone else, and promise not to cause you trouble!"

"Nonsense!" Liu Chen's face darkened, and he looked at Doudou with a headache, she was a person sent by Yue Guogong, and she was not too harsh to criticize, after thinking for a while, Liu Chen put on a smile and said lightly: "You go and help me keep an eye on that Jin Ruoshui, see if she says bad things about me, this woman is very bad, you keep an eye on me!"

As soon as she heard Jin Ruoshui's name, Xiao Lori's eyes suddenly lit up, Yue Guogong had told her that she must take a good look at Liu Chen, don't let the fox spirit hook it, in Xiao Lori's heart, isn't the seventh princess of the barbarian tribe a fox spirit, and she still wants her young master to be a concubine for her, the barbarian really doesn't know the height of the sky.

Finally got rid of Doudou, Liu Chen got off the corner tower, came to the generals, turned over on his horse, and then exchanged a look with the ascetic, and walked towards the outside of the city gate without looking back. More than 15,000 soldiers of the Muzi Battalion all followed behind Liu Chen, and under the dim starlight, the team was stretched for a long time, and it didn't take long for it to completely disappear into the wilderness in the distance.
