Chapter 346

Xu Chen had long known that Ximen Wang was from the Snow Country tribe, and at this time, he naturally understood why the northeastern border army of the empire was so gentle in this war. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Simon looked at other enemies, but he was not always so gentle.

Today's Xu Chen is not afraid of Ximen Wang, but he doesn't know what he should do when Ximen Wang comes back.

His Majesty was in the palace, and the queen mother pleaded in front of the flower tree in person, not that she was afraid of how much wind and rain he, a cultivator of the Six Realms, could set off, but she didn't want this matter to involve the academy, and she didn't want Ximen to take off her armor and return to old age to have twists and turns.

It seems that Xu Chen's revenge has been written to the end, except for the last method.

That method was taught to him by the master with a stick on the terrace of the Songhe Tower, and the elder brother had vaguely reminded him of it in the wasteland, and he had thought of it when he was imprisoned in a cave.

That method is simple and clear, full of power, but from another angle, it can be said that it is so stupid and clumsy, which is completely inconsistent with Xu Chen's outlook on life that is sunny on the surface but actually gloomy.

Standing on the streets of the capital in late spring, Xu Chen thought about the things after the autumn, sometimes enthusiastic and sometimes gloomy, completely unaware that a rain cloud was drifting from the north.

"Excuse me, Mr. Little?"

Xu Chen looked back and saw a man saluting respectfully to him, the man was wearing an ordinary civilian uniform, but he couldn't hide the solemn aura unique to the military on his body.

He has been a celebrity in the capital since last spring, but not many people who have actually seen his face can recognize him on the streets of the capital.

Xu Chen was a little vigilant, especially because of the identity of the other party.

The man confessed his identity in the next sentence.

"The general is please. ”

The Chaoyang Empire dominated the world with iron armor and swept Liuhe by force, so it naturally attached great importance to revering soldiers, especially the status of the four great generals.

The general of Zhenguo, who has fought for decades, has made great achievements, and has opened up countless territories for the empire, even Ximen Wang, who has been extremely famous in the past ten years, can only be expected to be able to match it, no matter in terms of military qualifications or prestige, he is the first person in the imperial military.

Xu Chen knew that the old general, the most powerful in the imperial military, did not have a good impression of him, and he did not know the specific reason, but he knew that he would meet with the other party sooner or later, but he didn't expect that it was today, and he didn't expect that he had just left the palace and was watched by the Chaoyang military.

The general did not choose to be in the military department, but chose to meet Xu Chen in the general's mansion not far from the avenue, which seemed to indicate that this was a private conversation.

Following the man into the imposing general's mansion, Xu Chen frowned slightly, and was excited by the murderous aura emanating from the cold stones of the poplars in the mansion.

Walking into the depths of the General's Mansion, in a quiet platform, he saw the old general sitting by the desk.

The old general did not wear court clothes, official uniforms, or armor, but wore a very ordinary cloth coat, did not grow cabbage, did not sharpen knives, but was eating with a rice bowl.

The meal on the table was simple, two bowls of brown rice, a bowl of pork belly, and three boiled greens.

The man who led Xu Chen into the mansion quietly left.

Xu Chen stood outside the stage, was silent for a moment, then walked up the stairs, walked in front of the old general and bowed slightly.

The old general said, "Sit." ”

Xu Chen lifted the placket of his hospital uniform, sat down as he said, and looked at the opposite side.

The old general said: "I didn't expect you to come so soon, let me finish the meal first, don't blame me for losing hospitality." ”

Xu Chen bowed his head and saluted: "The general's words made the juniors panic. ”

The old general didn't say anything more, and continued to eat intently.

The old general's hair is gray, his slightly black cheeks are full of wrinkles, his figure is a little rickety, and he looks like an idle old man everywhere in the capital, but when he picks up chopsticks and grabs the piece of meat, it is like holding a spear and stabbing the enemy general's chest, full of domineering.

Although the general is old, he is not an old general, and a general is a general, especially when facing the enemy.

The pork belly gravy mixed with brown rice smelled a little fragrant, and the taste must be just average, but what the general ate was extremely sweet, his gray beard shook from time to time, and the three boiled greens were even more crisp and crisp when he chewed them, just like the demons in the underworld who were gnawing on human bones in the legend.

Probably a habit developed in his military career, the general ate quickly, like a wind and clouds, swept away the food on the table, and then he picked up the teacup and rinsed his mouth.

Xu Chen said: "Eating too fast and drinking tea in a hurry is not good for your health." ”

The general looked at him quietly and said, "You don't have to pretend to be anything in front of me. ”

Xu Chen was silent, so he no longer pretended to be a junior, pretended to be gentle, and pretended to be considerate.

The general said, "A cultivator should be born, not enter the world. ”

Xu Chen didn't expect that this conversation would go straight to the most critical stage without any foreshadowing or any previous text, and he couldn't help but be a little caught off guard.

He originally thought that this would be a long conversation, he thought that this conversation would be like boiling chicken soup, and he needed to compare each other's fire, but he didn't expect that it would be fried quickly, and if he was not careful, the vegetables in the pot would become charred and could no longer enter his throat.

"Why shouldn't we join the WTO?"

Xu Chen asked after a moment of silence.

The general looked into his eyes and said indifferently: "Because for cultivators, the world is too weak, like ants, and cultivators are prone to arrogance when they enter the world. ”

Xu Chen raised his head, looked back at the general's calm and oppressive gaze, and said, "The general fought in all directions for me, and he also rolled in the world for dozens of times. ”

"Before I became a practitioner, I was first and foremost a soldier. ”

The general said indifferently: "This is the biggest difference. ”

Xu Chen said: "I am also a soldier. ”

The general shook his head slowly and said, "Well, count." You used to be a soldier, even a pretty good soldier, but unfortunately, you weren't a cultivator when you were a soldier. ”

"What's the difference?" asked Xu Chen.

The general squinted slightly, looked at him and said in a deep voice: "If you have been able to cultivate a long time ago, I will definitely train you well and make you a great martial arts cultivator, so that you can truly understand what is going on on the battlefield, so that those stories in the future will not happen." ”

Xu Chen was silent for a moment and then said, "I don't know what the general means. ”

"I've seen all your files. ”

The general's voice didn't have any superfluous emotions, just blindly indifferent and calm, "You are indeed a good soldier, but you have not experienced a real battle, there is a battle of cultivators. ”

Xu Chen was silent again, he joined the army in Weicheng when he was very young, but the rising sun was strong, even the cavalry of the Golden Horde on the grassland did not dare to provoke the slightest, the real war really did not experience much, and in the past few years of military career, he really did not see the performance of cultivators on the battlefield.

The general said, "The world thinks that cultivators are very strong, but they don't know that on the real battlefield, when facing the surging iron horse, cultivators are also weak. ”

Xu Chen thought about a strong person like Senior Brother, and he couldn't agree with such a statement.

The general seemed to know what was going on in his heart, and said coldly: "Even if you are a strong man who knows your fate, in the face of the crossbow arrows in the sky and the charge of thousands of heavy horses, there is still only one way to die, this has been proven countless times in the history of war, do you know what the reason is?"

Xu Chen shook his head.

The general said, "Because the cultivator's body is too fragile. Unless you can cross that threshold and break through the Five Realms and advance to the Boundless Realm, you can ignore the rain of arrows in the sky, or you can advance to the Heavenly Apocalypse Realm, comprehend the supreme divine power given by Haotian, and ignore any impact, otherwise a single cultivator will never be an opponent of the army. ”

"What about a martial arts peak powerhouse like General or General Ximen Wang?" asked Xu Chen.

The general said: "Martial arts practitioners use their mental power to summon the vitality of heaven and earth to practice physical strength, and when fighting, they use mental power to condense the vitality of heaven and earth on the surface of the body, but as long as it is a person, there is an edge in the sea of knowledge, and when the mental power is finally exhausted, one person can't kill a hundred people, and I use 10,000 people to kill, I can always kill him, remember, if the peak of martial arts can be invincible, why does the empire still raise so many iron horses?"

Xu Chen put his right hand on the desk, looked at the general's sunken eyes and said, "One cultivator can exchange 10,000 ordinary soldiers, is this not called powerful?"

The general looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Among the ten thousand ordinary people, there is not a single cultivator, like such a great cultivator who is so ten thousand enemies, and there are not a few in the whole world, with 10,000 ordinary soldiers, in exchange for the death of such a cultivator, it is a very cost-effective thing in a war." ”
