Chapter 146: Fellow Believers (I)
Song Zheng thought for a while, waved his hand and said, "This was the way to travel in Hezhou before, and the effect was not good. General Ma led the troops to open the way in front, and the official and Long Yiwei followed behind. ”
Ma Jingchang hesitated for a moment, but still said, "The last general will obey the order." ”
He turned forward, and the orders were passed down one after another, and the three thousand elite soldiers of Beitai City soon changed from the rear team to the front team, and reversed the direction of the route.
Ma Jingchang came back and said to Song Zheng: "Lord Song, this place is close to the battlefield, the Huaxu people are fierce and cunning, and they often send powerful monks to enter the country to harass them, so it is definitely not safe on this road, adults must be careful, if you encounter a war, do not panic, and please follow the advice of the last general, after all, the last general has fought with the Huaxu people." ”
Song Zheng smiled and was good at admonishing: "Okay." ”
Ma Jing always ordered the ranger scouts to be in front, and dozens of rangers traveled thirty miles, and when they found the situation, they would immediately report it with homophone notes. And Song Zheng also saw that the horses of these rangers were tied with special magic weapons, like two high wires, which were used to detect the Void Barrier, if they found the weakness of the Void Barrier, they would immediately report back, and the army would try to detour as much as possible so as not to fall into the Void Trap.
If you really can't get around, you should also send someone to check in advance to ensure safety.
Song Zheng's side, Zeng Qianhu and the others nodded: Sure enough, they have been on the battlefield, and everything is ready, unlike Kong Baiyu.
It's just that the team is moving fast, and Song Zheng will send someone to say to him: "General Ma, my lord instructs you to move slowly, you have been ambushed twice in Hezhou, you must be cautious." ”
Ma Jingchang was often helpless and repeatedly ordered his subordinates to slow down. He can't say anything, but his subordinates have already criticized a lot.
"This soft egg is scared in Hezhou, right?"
The two major battles in Hezhou have just happened, and the specific story has not been spread, otherwise they would definitely not dare to chew their tongues so indiscriminately.
When he arrived at a fork in the road, Ma Jingchang was just about to take the shortcut road when he came, and Song Zheng sent someone over: "General Ma, my family said that it is better to take the official road as much as possible." ”
Ma Jingchang was helpless and led the army to the pipeline.
The team slowly walked for a hundred and ten miles, and there was a roaring sound of water in the mountains on the side, Ma Jingchang in front of him moved his nose and waved his hand, and a personal soldier who followed him immediately left the team, and after a while, he came back with two large wine jars: "General, good wine!"
Ma Jing often pretended to whip it over: "On the march, how can you drink!"
The pro-soldier screamed in pain but still said with a hippie smile: "General, the military regulations only say that you can't drink alcohol, but they don't say that you can't buy alcohol." The mountain spring water here is good, the winery is next to the spring water, and the mountain millet planted by the mountain people themselves, and the spring water is used to make wine, which is really a rare good thing.
Let's buy it first, and drink it when the war is over and we celebrate. ”
Ma Jingchang seemed to be moved, glanced at Song Zheng behind him, and said, "Then it should also be sent to Lord Song first." ”
"Yes!" The soldiers came to Song Zheng with two large jars of fine wine, and Song Zheng accepted it with a smile: "Shi Zhonghe, you take someone to go with you, see how many there are, and buy them together." When we repel the Huaxu enemy, we will celebrate with the wine in this mountain. ”
"Yes, sir. Shi Zhonghe went with a few lieutenants, and after a while, they emptied the dozens of jars of wine in the winery by the spring waterfall, and Song Zheng and Ma Jingchang each had half of them.
After this little incident, the army continued to advance, and Ma Jingchang came over to tell Song Zheng: "My lord, let's rest in the state capital tonight, the state pastor has been waiting for a long time. ”
Song Zheng nodded, it is much safer to rest in the state capital, even if Hua Xu's army kills, with the tall walls and protective array of the palace city, it can resist waiting for reinforcements.
He smiled at Song Zheng and said, "The last general has a good mouthful of things in the cup on weekdays, and everyone around him knows it, so ...... on the road Your Excellency must keep it a secret from the general, and don't tell the governor of the state. ”
Song Zheng smiled heartily: "It's easy to say." It's just that he bought alcohol and didn't drink alcohol, and he didn't violate military regulations, so how could this officer say more?"
"Lord Xie replied. Ma Jingchang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Song Zheng is smiling all the way.
In the evening, the majestic city wall of Jizhou "Lihan City" appeared in the eyes of everyone, and Chen Ziying, the state pastor, waited thirty miles outside the city, warmly greeted Song Zheng, and settled them in a camp outside the city.
At this tense moment, it was indeed inappropriate for the army to enter the city, and Song Zheng obeyed the arrangement.
At the banquet that received the wind, Ma Jingchang couldn't hold back after all, and secretly took the spring water and wine and tasted it, and suddenly let go of his eyes: "Good wine!"
Chen Ziying snorted coldly: "General Ma, the big battle is ahead, it can be stopped!"
Ma Jingchang nodded again and again, but said to Song Zheng: "My lord, try it, this time by chance, I didn't expect to encounter such a rare wine." When this battle is over, I will ask people to go back and buy more. ”
He strongly recommended Song Zheng to try it, Song Zheng smiled, poured himself a bowl of drink, and praised: "It is indeed good wine." ”
With Chen Ziying watching, Ma Jingchang didn't dare to drink more, the banquet was sumptuous, Chen Ziying called the watery woman from the Teaching Workshop Division to come and cheer up, and Song Zheng just gently pushed it away. Chen Ziying laughed, leaned over and asked with the eyes of a man, "Lord Song is not appetizing?"
Song Zheng said lightly: "I just don't like this style." ”
Chen Ziying misunderstood, and suddenly said, "Oh-I see." He got closer and said kindly: "Lord Song turned out to be a fellow practitioner, and there is an opera troupe in the Xiaguan Mansion, and the seven or eight Xiaosheng are very delicate, so it is better for the adults to ...... with the Xiaguan tonight."
Song Zheng frowned, moved away from most of the distance, and said, "Lord Chen misunderstood, the official is not good at that." ”
Zeng Qianhu was itching in his heart.
Song Zheng said suddenly: "But...... Zeng Qianhu, you can go with Lord Zhou Mu tonight. ”
Zeng Qianhu suddenly came to his senses, but he was a little twisted: "My lord, this ...... Isn't that okay?"
"Go ahead. Song Zheng said lightly, and Zeng Qianhu immediately received the order: "Yes!"
Chen Ziying looked at Zeng Qianhu unexpectedly, the two looked at each other, showing a tacit smile, it seems that tonight, they are the same people.
Song Zheng waved his hand and said, "Let's stop here tonight." He told Ma Jingchang: "General Ma, you have to leave early tomorrow, don't drink too much good wine." ”
"The last general will not dare. Ma Jing often responded, whether he could hold back God knows.
The camp outside the city was divided into two, with Ma Jingchang's troops on one side and Long Yiwei on the other. Chen Ziying said goodbye to Song Zheng, asked Zeng Qianhu to get into the car, and drove towards the city with a smile.
Everyone dispersed, Shi Zhonghe accompanied Song Zheng, he looked up at the night sky, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce, and the sky was vast. Suddenly, there was something more in his hand, a hedron staff of gray mist.
The hedron on the head of the staff was broken by him, but only the crack was not completely broken.
After he killed Grey Mist, he only captured this thing. When I was marching during the day today, I checked it out, and I was stunned to find that it was also a fourth-order spirit treasure.
If it weren't for the sharpness of the Divine Sword Drunken Dragon, and the fact that he had been nourished by the Dragon Shadow Cup for a long time, he might not be able to break the spar with one sword.
And he tried to inject the spirit yuan into this spirit treasure, and accidentally found that this treasure fell to a level of realm, and now it is only a third-order spirit treasure, but the staff tail spar is intact, and the rod head spar can still be used - with the help of this treasure, his perception of the space heaven bar has been greatly improved.
He stuck his staff on the ground, and the Void God Town rose, and the aura in the hedron was faint and flickered slightly, as if it was echoing a few sparse stars in the sky.
After a while, Song Zheng frowned, put away his staff, glanced at Shi Zhonghe, and went back to rest.
......
In front of Chen Ziying's mansion, the guards stopped, and the carriage landed right at the door. When Chen Ziying got out of the car, a healthy servant at home greeted him: "Master, you are back." ”
Chen Ziying nodded, beckoned Zeng Qianhu to get out of the car, and then asked, "Are the teams ready over there?"
"How can they not do what you tell them? Don't worry, everything is your favorite, sir. ”
Chen Ziying nodded: "There are guests coming today, tell them to be careful." ”
"Don't worry, I promise not to lose my lord's face. ”
Chen Ziying was proud, and led Zeng Baihu to the back garden, and when he arrived at the place, the platform had been set up, there were a few Tsing Yi, a few students were babbling and trying to raise their voices, and a few martial arts students took off their shirts, and only wore martial pants and white boots to stretch their legs on the side.
As soon as Zeng Qianhu saw this sturdy and soft figure, he gave Chen Ziying a thumbs up: "Adults can play." ”
"Hahaha!" Chen Ziying laughed proudly, two chairs were placed under the stage, he sat down with Zeng Qianhu, and after a while, the gongs and drums sounded, and the show started.
A group of martial artists churned up on the stage, flying spears, Zeng Qianhu's eyes straightened, and suddenly the entire stage went dark and fell into a special void.
Those martial artists and Xiaosheng rushed up, holding magic weapons and ropes in all directions, and their heads were shrouded in spiritual light, and Zeng Qianhu was caught like a pig.
Even a magic rope was tied to his mouth, making him unable to speak.
Chen Ziying shouted: "Search!"
A few male cultivators were disgusted by everyone and refused to step forward, Chen Ziying himself was disgusted and didn't want to do it, and finally a martial artist covered in tendons stepped forward with a frown: "I'll come!"
He groped carefully on Zeng Qianhu, and got out all the important items such as waist cards and seals, Zeng Qianhu hummed and asked Chen Ziying why he was like this with his eyes.
Chen Ziying snorted coldly: "All kinds of battles, men and women are killed, they were originally prepared for Song Zheng." I thought it was arranged in vain, but I didn't expect you idiot to send it to the door by yourself, hum!"
He took the waist card and jade seal in his hand, and went out to give an order: "When the seal letter waist card is in hand, immediately notify Ma Jingchang, give up the attack, and prepare to outwit." ”
The military camp where Song Zheng lived was in the east of Lihan City, the west gate was quietly opened, and hundreds of strong cultivators rushed out silently.
This is their territory, and they have already made sufficient preparations, and there are special formations along the way, silently, without any fluctuations in the element.
