Sabre-rattling3 verse 17
In the seventeenth verse, while the two were talking and laughing, the soldier had already called out and quickly served the food. In a few moments, a table was full. Dao Yun grabbed a jar of wine on the table, poured it into the cup, and was not polite, and the cow drank it. After three rounds of wine, he held the cup in his right hand and sighed: "This is the famous Nanning spring, it is said that this wine must be brewed by hand in the spring, the longer it is placed, the stronger its taste, Lord Wu is really willing." It seems that I drank too much, so as not to disappoint Lord Wu's good intentions. ”
Wu Ming said with a smile: "If the master likes it, he can use the gourd to decorate it later, boy, here, there are many more." ”
Dao Yun took another sip of wine, waved his hand and said, "Lord Wu, no matter how good this wine is, it is also provided by Zhu Huai's old boy." I'm just going to look for him, just ask him directly, and I won't bother you. ”
Wu Ming's heart turned, and his hands couldn't help but slow down, it seems that Daoyun came to Nanning, and it is estimated that he is just passing by, and the real purpose is to Zhu Huai, but this time it is really a confrontation between the north and the south, and I don't know which side Cangsong Pavilion is on. It's just that Dao Yun doesn't say it, and it's not easy for him to ask.
He poured another glass of wine for Dao Yun, and changed the topic: "On the last trip to the Snow Mountain, I had the help of the master, and I haven't thanked you yet." "The last time he fought in the snow mountain, he became the ultimate beneficiary by mistake, and he was grateful to the other party, which is appropriate. Sure enough, Dao Yun took another sip of wine, smashed his mouth, looked at Wu Ming and said with a smile: "Lord Wu, if I guessed correctly, when you went to the eighth stage this time, you got the help of blood ginseng, right?" ”
"Yes."
The fact that he was able to rise to the eighth rank was indeed not unrelated to the help of this blood ginseng, and there was no need for Wu Ming to deny this. Dao Yun raised his head, his drunken eyes were hazy, as if he had a great feeling: "It is said that it is difficult for a martial artist to ascend to the sky in the seventh section, but these people don't know that after the eighth section, every step is terrifying, this avenue road is ethereal, where is the road?" ”
After expressing his emotion, he turned his head, looked at Wu Ming Zhengse, and said: "Lord Wu is young, and he has reached the eighth stage, which is the pillar of the future imperial court, so please be sure to go to Cangsong Pavilion, the master should have something to say to you." ”
This is the second time he has said this, Wu Ming was stunned, agreed, poured him full of wine again, and asked, "Master Daoyun, how did you come down that day in the Snow Mountain?" And then? ”
Dao Yun drank a little high, and his tongue began to grow bigger. Wu Ming tried hard to listen, and finally understood a general idea. It turned out that after Li Mopa sent Wu Ming and Youluli away that day, he turned around and fought with Deadwood. This battle was fought in the mountains and the ground, and the snow was wave after wave. The two fought on the mountain for a whole day and night, and then the two grandmasters gave up because Yululi returned and the dead wood grew older, and finally it didn't last long.
At that time, Wu Ming woke up and did not see Youluli. Now I know that I don't worry about her master, so I went back. Although Dao Yun said vaguely, Wu Ming could still feel the tragedy of this battle. It's just that in the end, Yululi gave her blood ginseng, and she didn't know what her master would blame her for. Fortunately, when I saw her later, I didn't seem to have been wronged. He also inexplicably agreed to the other party's three conditions, and thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly again.
Now the four great masters of this world, he has more or less come into contact with three, and he only thinks that these people are a bit maverick. Now I haven't touched it, it's Beimeng's heaven kill, but I don't know what kind of character that day killer is. The two were drinking and chatting, and before they knew it, an hour had passed. Dao Yun stood up, burped with wine, and said with a mouth full of wine: "Lord Wu, I also ate this wine, and I also brought the words, so I will leave first." See you at the Governor's banquet. ”
He is staggering when he walks now, but he still remembers that there will be a banquet tomorrow, Wu Ming heard him say this, his heart moved, it seems that this time Daoyun went to Nanning, and he was also invited by Zhu Huai. This Zhu Huai's movements were fast.
It's just that Cangsong Pavilion is on whose side, why is Nanban independent, and he doesn't care? If it is just because of the relationship between Li Mopa and the wine Taoist who is like a Taoist couple and a master and apprentice, it is too, and it should not be all the same.
After sending Dao Yun away, it was almost evening. Wu Ming returned to his room, his mind was full of some messy things, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became, probably because the wine was strong, and he actually lay on the head of the bed, and fell asleep straight and straight.
In my sleep, I vaguely returned to that night, and the moonlight, which was like water and ice, spilled in through the window. He Yizheng stayed aside, with a face of pear blossoms and rain.
I slept very deeply, and when I woke up in the morning, I saw only a tearstain that wet my pillow.
He shook his groggy head, then crawled to his feet. Probably the noise in the house woke up the people outside, and a soldier from the Guards Battalion ran in and shouted: "Adult, I still have to go to the Little Chinese New Year's Eve party today, you look like this, I'm afraid it won't work." ”
As soon as Wu Ming was told by him, his mind was much clearer, he touched a bronze mirror from the table next to him, only glanced at it, and immediately smiled bitterly. In the mirror was a scruffy face with red eyes, apparently not yet awake from a hangover. The knots in the hair were also scattered, and the long hair was messy together, so it would definitely not be possible to go out to meet people.
He shook his head, and was about to go to fetch water to wash his face, but the soldier smiled and said, "Your Excellency is going to the Governor's Mansion today, naturally you can't lose face, we have prepared clothes for you, you better go take a shower and change into new clothes." ”
Wu Ming couldn't help but blush, and he kept saying that everyone was equal, in fact, since he returned to Nanning, he was still taken care of by these soldiers most of the time. It's really not a good way to be depressed like this. He nodded at the warrior and said, "Okay, I'll take a shower first." ”
The warrior agreed, and then led Wu Ming to the bathhouse.
This building has a canteen, a bathhouse, and so on, but it is all complete. The bathhouse was not very far from Wu Ming's residence, and the two of them didn't walk long before they arrived, and when they arrived at the door, the soldier smiled and said, "My lord, I'll go get you a change of new clothes, you go in first and soak it." Then he saluted and went down.
The bathhouse is not very large, but now there are only more than a hundred people in the entire Guards battalion, and it is more than enough to deal with it. It is divided into two rooms, probably the men's and women's bathrooms of the previous owner, but now more than 100 soldiers of the Guards Battalion are all big men, and these two bathrooms naturally belong to the men's bathroom.
When I walked in, I saw a lot of people taking a shower. Even Yang Xiong and Tian Hong are there. The two of them were lying in the bath, chirping, not knowing what they were talking about, and let out a chuckle from time to time. Yang Xiong is now the second-in-command of the Guards Battalion, he himself is a seventh-stage master, and he is proficient in battle formations, and everyone, including Tian Hong, is very convinced of him.
Today's Chinese New Year's Eve party, Tao Yu sent a decree to all the soldiers of the Guards Battalion to participate, it seems that everyone pays more attention, so the bathhouse is also unprecedentedly busy. Wu Ming walked over, greeted everyone, then took off his clothes and jumped into the bath. As soon as I entered the pool, I couldn't help but groan, the water was a little hot, but in winter, it was just right. After a hangover, I felt uncomfortable, and I almost didn't want to move when I was soaked in warm water.
After soaking for a while, he opened his eyes and said blankly, "Why don't you talk anymore?" ”
It turned out that after he came in, all the ** breath was not panting, and the bathhouse, which was still lively just now, was almost silent now. Yang Xiong and Tian Hong weren't afraid of him much, but now that they were like this, they couldn't speak. Yang Xiong looked at everyone around him, thoughtful, and Tian Hong shouted heartlessly: "Are you all dumb? Lord Wu is not a monster, so he won't talk when he comes in, so he will continue to talk to me, and continue to speak. Yes. Voices rang out again throughout the bathhouse, but much quieter.
The three of them soaked together, and after a while, the other warriors ran away, and the later warriors, seeing the three inside, ran to another bathroom.
After a long while, Yang Xiongcai sighed and said, "Master Wu, there is a sentence that I have like a bone in my throat, I don't vomit or be unhappy, I don't know whether to say it or not?" ”
"Brother Yang, what's the matter, but please tell me directly."
"When I arrived in Nanning, I seemed to have put everything aside, which was a trust in me, and I was grateful, but it was very bad. In the past, when I first arrived at the guard camp, I was very envious that you could mingle with all the soldiers, but you have been unfamiliar for a while, and all the soldiers have been separated from you. The art of war is cloudy, the time is not as good as the location, the location is not as good as the people, and the military spirit is the same, so that the maximum combat strength of the troops can be brought into play, and only then can they survive a hundred battles. ”
These words can be heard on the earth, and even Tao Yu's "March Strategy" to Wu Ming? Twenty-four Questions also has such an original sentence above. Wu Ming was thrilled by what he said, and suddenly sobered up. During this time, I was immersed in the grief of losing He Yi, and I nested in my small yard every day, and I really didn't pay attention to these. At this time, when he heard Yang Xiongyi say, he suddenly felt the same way, nodded and said: "Brother Yang is right, from tomorrow onwards, I will also practice the battle formation with all the soldiers." ”
Yang Xiong showed a smile in his eyes and said: "Thank you for listening to my advice, as the saying goes, 'loyalty is against the ear', everyone will say this, but how many people in this world can listen to it?" It is a blessing for all the soldiers of the Guards Battalion to have such a commander as an adult. ”
He said it very emotionally, Wu Ming only felt a little blushing, and quickly changed the topic and said, "By the way, Brother Yang, how is the practice of this battle formation now." ”
Yang Xiong squinted and enjoyed the temperature of the water, smiled, and said, "It shouldn't be very bad." "He is cautious and serious, and it should be very good to be able to say such things, but Wu Ming has not cared about these things recently, so he can only wait for the Chinese New Year's Eve and go to see it himself."
After a few people talked for a while, a man outside shouted, "My lord, I have prepared your clothes for you, do you want me to bring them in?" ”
Wu Ming was about to answer, but Tian Hong had already rushed to say: "Just send it in, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, everyone is a gentleman, are you still shy?" ”
