Volume Eight, Speeding Through, Chapter 21, Seeing Zhu Xiaofeng Again
This is the first time I have seen an old monk show such a bad smile since I met Shuimu. I said, "What the master means is to let me take Zhu Xiaofeng to our world?"
Shuimu said: "What do you think?"
I said, "First, with the stalemate between me and him now, he will definitely not follow me. Second, even if he is willing to follow me, will I keep him in my world for the rest of my life? In that case, wouldn't the people of Honglie Empire fight me even more?"
Shuimo said: "You can only take one step at the moment. The emperor is Hong Lie's first priority in fighting. If he has no time to fight, it would be better for Hong Lie to withdraw his troops for the time being."
"Then how should I talk to Zhu Xiaofeng?"
"This... I can only make a heartless invitation. Xiaolong, would you like to go to Hong Liejun with me?"
I held my chin and said, "It was no point in Hong Lie's army that everyone regarded me as an enemy, but since it was proposed by the master, I had to sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman."
Shuiming clasped his palms and said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, this way, Hong Lie's people are very lucky, and the people of the daughter country are very lucky."
At this time, I heard the voice of Ku Mei in the yard saying, "...Where is that monk now?"
I heard her tone and knew that the trouble was coming. I hurriedly said to Shuimo: "Master, this person who sings is my disciple in my previous life. He is a little arrogant. Don't be as good as her." While speaking, Kumei was knocking outside: "Master, are you still okay?"
I opened the door and said, "Didn't I not let anyone disturb us?"
Ku Mei leaned her head in and said, "I think this monk is weird. So let's take a look at the master." She saw Shui Mo and squeezed in from me and said, "I heard that you retreated to the four national masters with just one mouth. Can you tell me the scene again?"
Shui Mo said in surprise: "It was in chaos at that time, I can't remember too much."
Kumei said, "Let me first talk about how you deal with the one wearing a red robe?"
Shui Mo said: "This person has the highest martial arts skills among the four. If you fight alone, there is no enemy of him at that time. I had to send 8 people to attack and restrain him from front, back and left and right, and the eight people used long weapons so that they would not hurt his sharp sword energy. However, despite this, this person still injured 7 soldiers in a row, which was very powerful." Shui Mo explained in detail the tricks used by everyone at that time. I had a lot of dealings with the Shuangdao Guard. I heard that many of the mysteries were used when training the Shuangdao Guard, but the warriors of the Flying Dragon Army were not as good as those of the Shuangdao Guard in terms of martial arts and literacy. So Shui Mo specifically asked them to do one person's work together. Shui Mo said one by one, each move and one move is as vivid as a movie.
After listening intently, Kumei asked again: "Tell me about the only one among the other three who did not use the knife."
Shuimo said: "Although the donor's martial arts skills have become extraordinary, he is just too cautious." I couldn't help but say: "In fact, it's just greedy for life and fear of death."
Shuimu told him how he dealt with Zhuye again, and Kumei broke the pot and asked to the end, Shuimu explained in detail from time to time. Kumei listened motionlessly. His expression gradually changed, and he finally said, "You are all very clever."
Shuimo said: "Master Kumei is so ridiculous." He had never seen Kumei before. But based on the old monk's knowledge, it is not difficult to infer Kumei's identity. So I am too lazy to ask again.
Kumei said, "I heard your name say before, but I don't have any good feelings for you. You sneakily helped Zhu Xiaofeng train the God-Binding Guard and didn't know what the idea was. Today I heard that you defeated the four national masters in a few words. I originally suspected that you made a condom with them for my master to drill. Now it sounds like I judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. Please don't blame me."
Shuimo was stunned for a moment and said, "You can say this to be honest."
It turned out that Ku Mei was considering this concern to examine the ink painting.
At this time, my mother stood at the door and said, "Can we come in?"
I let everyone into the house and introduced Shuimu one by one. My mother bowed to Shuimu and said, "Xiaolong relied on the care of his master during his time in Honglie. Thank you for your youth."
Shuimu hurriedly replied, "You are welcome. The general's demeanor is very good. I have admired him for a long time."
Ku Mei said: "There is no such thing as a man in our country of women."
Shuimo smiled and said, "Yes, I'm confused."
Geng Ling happened to be behind my mother. He coughed awkwardly after hearing this. I pulled him over and said, "Master, this is Geng Ling, the commander of the Feilong Army."
Shuimo said: "The emperor and I heard the name of the Feilong Army on the road. We just fought with the four major national teachers. It turns out that there are indeed masters in your army."
Geng Ling smiled and said, "The master is too proud. As the saying goes, we men have to work harder." Everyone laughed.
After a few chats, I told everyone about the purpose of Shui Mo coming to me. Ku Mei was the first to jump up and said, "No!"
I said to her, "Do you still believe in Master Ink? I don't have to spend so many twists and turns if he wants to do it."
Ku Mei said, "I believe in this old monk, but I can't believe in Zhu Xiaofeng. How did Master know that he did not arrange a trick to wait for you to be fooled?"
I said, "There are no masters in Hong Lie's army, and even if Zhu Xiaofeng is ill-behaved, he may not be able to harm me."
Ku Mei kept shook her head and said, "It is easy to avoid hidden arrows and cannot be defensive. Master, have you suffered once?"
My mother said, "What the hell do you think?"
I said, "If this matter can be accomplished, it will be a blessing to the people of both countries. If Zhu Xiaofeng refuses it, it will not be a loss to me."
Geng Ling suddenly said coldly: "No matter what Xiaolong and Zhu Xiaofeng are like, the accounts of Hong Lie Empire and the Kingdom of Women will be settled sooner or later - Heijis has been defeated, and Hong Lie is unable to make a sound. We can't just let them withdraw their troops." Geng Ling turned to Shuimiao and said, "Master, please don't be surprised by what I said."
Shuimo said: "Amitabha, as the commander of the first army, it is necessary to say so, but I want to ask: The punishment mentioned by Geng is to destroy Hong Lie's whole country?"
Geng Ling paused and said, "Of course not. I, Geng Ling, are not a powerful soldier. I just want Zhu Xiaofeng to learn a lesson."
Shuimu's expression turned and said, "Good, it's never better to make others surrender than to use force to make others willingly surrender. If Xiaolong can really save the emperor's life and make him admit his mistakes with conscience, in my humble opinion, it seems to be more conducive to peace and security between the two countries."
My mother said, "Master's words are good."
I looked at Su Jing and said, "What do you think?"
Su Jing said: "I don't object to you going to meet Zhu Xiaofeng. If I go with you, I'm afraid he may not be willing to take the risk of showing up. It's better for us to limit time - if you don't turn back in the evening, I'll go find you."
"Then let's settle it." I said to Shuimo, "Master, we'll set off now."
Gao Xiaowei leaned in from the door and said, "Longyangyang, let me go with you?"
"Don't go, you're here to wait. If we want to go back and bring you with you, it's serious!"
Gao Xiaowei disappeared again when she heard this.
Shuimo took out a jewelry box from his arms and said, "This is what Shi Cundao and General Shi Dong asked me to bring it to Sticia."
I looked around and saw that Stiljia knew that his identity was awkward. So he stood in the yard from afar. I waved to her and called her into the house. Shuimo handed the things to her and said, "This was sent by the old Marshal Shi Cundao from the Shi Mansion in the capital. He said that this was your beloved thing, so the things returned to the original owner. General Shi Dong ordered me to take a message - when did the eldest lady want to go home? The door of the Shi Mansion will always be open."
Stiljia took these things and tears drizzled down her face, and she choked and said, "When will Hong Lie be as close as a family with his daughter? When will I go back?"
Ku Mei said decisively: "Idiot, then you will never go back!" She was a typical soft-hearted person. Then she stroked Sticia's hair and said, "Master treats you well in the future. If you have learned great skills and stayed in the Kingdom of Women, isn't it better to be at the mercy of men?"
Shui Mo and I both shook our heads secretly, said goodbye to everyone, went out to get on the horse, left Guo State and went straight to Hong Lie's base camp.
This time, the Honglie Empire and Heijis jointly attacked the Kingdom of Women. Heijis had the words first, and they were the main attack. Therefore, Honglie had suffered some minor losses and no major casualties, but his morale had plummeted. When Shuimo and I arrived at the gate of the camp, the guards looked happy when they saw me, and then they were depressed, as if they remembered their mood when they were in Honglie's army.
Shuimi ordered people to report all the way, but none of the Shi family appeared. Outside the Central Army tent, Huang Yifei brought his three new partners and four other groups of the remaining God-Binding Guards to meet us at the door.
Huang Yifei also looked embarrassed when he saw me. He wanted to bow but felt it was not suitable. He simply stretched out his hand and said, "The Emperor is inside, please."
I entered the tent, Huang Yifei and others followed closely, Zhu Xiaofeng was standing in front of the table wearing a yellow robe and his back was facing me. I was shocked when he turned around. In just over a month, Zhu Xiaofeng had shrunk from a burly man to a thin body, and his eyes were also sunken a lot. I was worried before that this was a trap set by Zhu Xiaofeng even deceived the ink and wash. Now it seems that he is really sick.
Although the emperor of the Hong Lie Empire who was determined to complete the career of the Heroic Map was haggard, his eyes were still flashing. He stared at me for a moment and said with emotion: "Dragon Sword God, we are meeting again."
I smiled and said, "The emperor seems to have been very good with the empresses for a long time, and they are almost exhausted."
Huang Yifei glared at me, but Zhu Xiaofeng smiled slightly and waved his hand and said, "You will always be the only one who dares to talk to me like this."
The group of the Shenwang guards in the group were four people. In addition to the leader such as Huang Yifei, there were four groups of Shenwang guards in the big tent, that is, 20 people surrounded us. Although the central military tent was spacious, it was stared at by 20 people with big eyes. In addition to being uncomfortable, I also found it quite funny.
Zhu Xiaofeng waved his hand and said, "Commander Huang, you all retreat."
Huang Yifei said in surprise: "Master, this is impossible!"
Zhu Xiaofeng shook his sleeve impatiently: "If you ask you to get out, you may not be able to stop him if he wants to kill me!" Huang Yifei then took the people out in disappointment.
Zhu Xiaofeng glanced at Shuimo and said, "Master, please give me a gift, I have a few words to say to Dragon Sword God." (To be continued)
