【Lewen】. Alas, for you to read wonderfully.

Ling Duozhi's face was as calm as the mountains and valleys in the rain, and behind him were the scarred guards. He was followed by the warriors of the Zhong family, their faces were not very good-looking at this time, their eyes flashed with a strange light, and they almost did not dare to look at this burly general of Baishuiguan. As soon as the warriors of the Zhong family walked out of the valley, they walked quickly towards the people of the Zhong family.

Zhong Cangfeng's eyes flashed with a hint of essence, he quietly listened to the report of a Zhong family warrior, and after the warrior finished the report, he set his eyes on the border guard general who was holding a big sword. For Ling Duozhi's name in the Northern Han Dynasty, it is far less than that of Yang Ye, firstly, because Ling Duozhi is low-key, and secondly, Baishuiguan is close to the Khitan border, and Ling Duozhi rarely shows his face among the ministers of the Northern Han Dynasty, but the Northern Han Dynasty and the opposition also have a high evaluation of Ling Duozhi and Yang Ye, and the two are known as the Northern Han generals 'Southern Yang and Northern Ling'.

It was the first time Zhong Cangfeng had seen Ling Duozhi, and he felt a heavy bloody anger from the other party's body, which made him feel a little jealous. Although he had heard of Ling Duozhi's prestige for a long time, he had never cared much about the general guarding the border pass. It's just that this time he has to do it, otherwise he may never meet Ling Duozhi in his life. He also secretly admired the other party in his heart, with only a dozen ordinary army guards, he sent him to several batches of Zhong family warriors to clear the nest, this person must not be simple, he thought in his heart.

Ling Duozhi was also looking at Zhong Cangfeng and all the people of the Zhong family, but the seemingly ordinary old man in front of him gave him a sense of coercion like a mountain. He knew that this person must be Zhong Cangfeng, the head of the Zhong family, and he was also the first time he saw Zhong Cangfeng, as a general in his army, he rarely interacted with Jianghu martial arts cultivators. He didn't like what the Northern Han Emperor did, so he didn't have a good impression of the Jinyang Zhong family, who was relied on by Liu Yu.

Following Zhong Cangfeng, Ling Duozhi's eyes fell on Zhong Jianhong's body again, this young man had a handsome and extraordinary face, but from that handsome face revealed a trace of dislike that he was very disliked, although there was a pair of bright starry eyes under the sword eyebrows, but from that pair of eyes revealed a bit of feminine light, which made Ling Duozhi even more disgusted. Compared with the young man in front of him, Ling Duozhi felt that his son Ling Tianyun had a little more masculinity and a little less femininity. As a soldier, he is a person with a bold personality, and he has no good impression of this kind of viper-like teenager.

In short, he has never had a good impression of the people of the Zhong family, not because he knows everything that happened in Lanzhou, but because he thinks from the bottom of his heart that the so-called first martial arts family of the Zhong family in Jinyang is to take advantage of the favor of the Northern Han Emperor Liu Yu, so that the people of the Zhong family are flying in Jinyang.

"Ling has seen the head of the Zhong family." As a junior, Ling Duozhi still kept his eyes on Zhong Cangfeng's body, and he first hugged his fist to the famous Jinyang No. 1 Martial Cultivator and said coldly. Zhong Cangfeng brought him too much oppression, which made his whole body tense up.

"I have long admired General Ling's name, and the old man is really famous when he sees it today, so it is better to meet." Although Zhong Cangfeng's words carried a hint of approval, his demeanor did not change at all.

"Ling really doesn't understand, Ling and the border army of Baishui Pass have nothing to do with the Zhong family, and they don't have any grudges. But he didn't know what the Zhong family was doing today, and Ling thought of a reasonable explanation for the head of the Zhong family. Ling Duozhi went straight in, and he asked Zhong Cangfeng directly. At this point, he didn't have any choice, for the sake of the bloodstained guards behind him, he felt that it would be better to face them directly.

"General Ling is too worried, the Zhong family just wants to ask General Ling to go back to Jinyang City together, but the methods used by the warriors under the Zhong family are a little rude. Let General Ling mislead the sky, the old man is deeply sorry for this. That Zhong Cangfeng's eyes flashed, and he didn't expect Ling Duozhi to question him like this.

"Yes, the lives of several of Ling's subordinates have been left in this valley, is it a misunderstanding that the Zhong family master said, is this also a rude explanation for the method used. Although Ben will be a martial artist, he is not an idiot. The head of the Zhong family said it bluntly, even if Ling was left with his life, there must be an explanation. The corners of Ling Duozhi's mouth lifted slightly, and he sneered at the other party.

"In that case, then the old man opened the skylight and said something. General Ling should know that Jinyang City is in a crisis, and the Zhong family is asking General Ling to resolve this crisis. Zhong Cangfeng's eyes flashed cold, and his solemn face made people feel full of righteousness and awe.

It's just that Ling Duozhi saw something strange from the other party, the Great Zhou army was under Jinyang City, of course he knew, but he only knew it on the way back to Jinyang City. In this regard, he is also powerless, he has already left Baishui Pass, and it is impossible for him to lead the army south from Baishui Pass, so that Baishui Pass must be eyed by the Khitan to seize this excellent opportunity to take advantage of the void, and then Baishui Pass will definitely fall into the hands of the Khitans.

"As the saying goes, when soldiers come, water will flood. Ling, as the general of my Han Dynasty, will definitely go all out to solve the danger of Jinyang. But is the Zhong family's way of inviting people too much, or do they really treat Ling as an idiot. The sarcasm on Ling Duozhi's face became stronger and stronger, and he didn't believe that this Zhong family was really so loyal that they would come to him for the danger of Jinyang City. Maybe they have an even more ulterior conspiracy, which is the real reason why they led the Zhong family warriors to come out.

"The old man is loyal to my big man, and this day can be seen. As for General Ling, whether he believes it or not, in short, he will be wronged by General Ling on this trip, and rush back to Jinyang with my Zhong family to solve the danger of Jinyang. Zhong Cangfeng felt a chill in his heart, this Ling Duozhi was really difficult, he knew that he couldn't make the other party believe in his righteousness.

"Ling can go back to Jinyang with you, but Ling's subordinates must leave." Ling Duozhi's face showed a solemn expression, it seemed that the Zhong family still did not achieve its goal and vowed not to give up, and this time it would not be good. He looked at Zhong Cangfeng opposite, his face showed even more determination, if the other party agreed to his request, he would be willing to be captured and at the mercy of the Zhong family.

"General, by all means." As soon as he heard Ling Duozhi's conditions, the few remaining guards behind him persuaded one after another. Their eyes showed even more monstrous anger, when their border soldiers were so humiliated, they would rather ride their horses and die on the battlefield than live like this, and live with humiliation like this.

Ling Duozhi turned to look at the haggard faces, most of the guards he brought out had already been sacrificed, he really couldn't bear to watch this group of personal soldiers who had followed him for many years die in front of his eyes. These are the robed brothers he brought out after many years of fighting, and they have gone through the test of blood and fire to get to where they are today. However, it was because of him that he let these brothers who had lived and died with him send them to death, which was even more uncomfortable than killing him.

"Don't say it, this general has decided, this general will return to Jinyang with the Zhong family, at this time, the Great Zhou Xingbing invaded our imperial capital Jinyang, and I, as a Han general, must not sit idly by. You will return to Baishui Pass as soon as possible to ensure the safety of every inch of the city of Baishui Pass, and this situation will not be in vain. Ling Duozhi shouted at the few remaining guards, at this time he exuded a decisive temperament, it was a general who was commanding thousands of troops and horses to gallop across the field.

As soon as they heard Ling Duozhi's words, the faces of those guards couldn't help but change, they had always regarded it as their duty to obey military orders. But they couldn't afford to watch their generals suffer such humiliation, and this indignant depression made them feel like a fire burning in their chests. But they couldn't do anything, they no longer had any combat power, let alone facing this group of Zhong family warriors who were as fierce as jackals, tigers and leopards.

At this time, the heavy rain fell suddenly, and Ling Duozhi's voice sounded like a thunderclap in the roaring rain, and a tragic and irrepressible atmosphere arose. The mighty general was like this god of war, standing proudly in the rainstorm, with a resolute and fearless look on his iron-like face, and a bit of helpless fatigue in his blazing tiger eyes. For a moment, only the sonorous voice echoed in the rain.

Zhong Cangfeng looked at all this expressionlessly, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he was once such a bloody man, but in the end, for the benefit of the Zhong family, he gave up a lot. He had to admire Ling Duozhi at this time, and at the same time he didn't have a little secret jealousy in his heart, Ling Duozhi wanted to be benevolent, righteous and affectionate, such a man was not the goal pursued by men in the world.

A good man should be like this, galloping the world, fighting in all directions, and dyeing a sky with blood. But the twilight of the hero will eventually return to the dust, and Lingduo's chest seems to be filled with endless flames, but his dry throat seems to be stuck in something, and he almost wants to roar towards the heavenly dome, but he can't make a sound. In front of him, those tired faces, he only felt as if he was getting old in a day, and he couldn't even protect the robes and brothers beside him.

A majestic body suddenly flashed in his mind, and his slightly youthful face revealed a bit of masculine temperament, and he thought of his son Ling Tianyun. He remembered that when Ling Tianyun left Baishui Pass that day, he had sat in Ling Tianyun's bedroom all night.

I endure it with anger, but I can't bear it, for the safety of the people around me, and in order to let Baishui shut down and leave a little fire. Ling Duozhi looked up, and the bean-like raindrops under the dark clouds hit his rough face, and two clear tears slipped down from the tiger's eyes, seeping the rain into the ground, and he could no longer tell whether it was tears or rain.

"Hahahaha, Lang Lang Qiankun, God is not right, the Zhong family is abusive but also said it so high-soundingly, aren't you afraid of the world's jokes." In this atmosphere of grief and indignation, a crisp voice suddenly came into everyone's ears. Everyone looked at it, but saw a brilliant blue shadow walking out from behind a boulder, it was a young man of sixteen or seventeen, the young man had a delicate and handsome face, and a pair of eyes as clear as stars were embedded in that handsome and soft face. The young man walked out from behind the boulder with a sneering smile, and as soon as the young man's words fell, his eyes fell on the middle-aged man with a depressed face.

With the appearance of the young man, the atmosphere of depression and indignation was immediately broken, and everyone's eyes fell on the blue-shirted young man, only to see that the young man was carrying a black iron sword with no blade and no sheath, and he appeared beside Ling Duozhi with his elegant footwork.

Ling Duozhi's eyes condensed slightly, what an extraordinary young man, although this young man's face is not as good as Zhong Jianhong of the Zhong family, but this young man has a unique temperament that makes people feel friendly. In particular, this teenager's elegant and magical footwork is even more extraordinary. Ling Duozhi had never seen this young man, but as this young man appeared, when he saw this young man's face clearly, he felt a sense of déjà vu, and this young man's body seemed to have the shadow of his son Ling Tianyun, which made him feel very kind.

Braving the torrential rain, Ye Yinfeng saluted with both hands and said to Ling Duozhi: "Junior Ye Yinfeng, I have seen General Ling. ”

"Okay, good, good, ha??????????", after Ling Duozhi looked at Ye Yinfeng, he inexplicably said three good words in a row, and then let out a series of hearty long laughs. For Ling Duozhi's strange behavior, not only others were stunned, but even Ye Yinfeng was puzzled. He heard a special meaning in the other party's tone, as if this Ling Duozhi seemed to know himself, or maybe Ling Duozhi knew some secrets about himself.
