Chapter 24: A kiss goodbye

In the early morning of the next day, Du Fan was still a little dizzy, and yesterday he did drink a lot of wine at the small banquet held by Guo Xiong for him.

"Don't drink like this again unless you have to. Du Fan shook his head and got out of bed to take a sip of warm tea.

"Mr. Du is awake?" a pleasant woman's voice came from outside the door.

"May I ask who you are?" Du Fan asked in surprise.

"The slave maid is the maid of the general's mansion, this morning, General Guo went to the front line to inspect the war, and when he left, he specially ordered us to take care of Mr. Du, and the slave Xiaohuan prepared some food and washing things for Mr. Outside, the woman's voice came from a respectful voice.

"Okay, you come in. ”

......

Du Fan temporarily lived in the General's Mansion, and after another day, the person who did things for Du Fan returned.

In the clean and slightly ordinary living room, Du Fan looked worried, and Guo Xiong frowned slightly.

"Have you checked carefully?" Guo Xiong pondered for a long time, and said solemnly.

"Returning to the general, due to the fact that the war with the feudal country, plus the fact that Xinghuo Town is an important military town, in order to prevent petty spies, as early as a month ago, all foreign populations entering the city will be strictly investigated and registered. After entering the city, there are special personnel to track them, and the other party's residence and whereabouts are recorded, so if Mr. Du's friend is in Xinghuo Town, or has been here, it is impossible not to find out. The guard looked solemn and replied again solemnly.

"Brother Du, it seems that your friend really hasn't been to Spark Town. Guo Xiong nodded, turned his head and said to Du Fan.

"Probably so. Du Fan replied casually, but he was puzzled in his heart, not that he didn't believe Guo Xiong and his men, but that he clearly remembered that when they were separated from Ruoxi, the other party had a lot of silver taels, as long as they arrived in Licheng, found a carriage and horse shop, and went directly to Xinghuo Town by car, counting the days, it should have arrived a long time ago, could it be that their silver taels were also stolen.

Then Du Fan shook his head again, how is this possible, they are all real cultivators, if they can all be stolen, then it will be a lot of fun. However, he could no longer think of other possibilities, and for a moment, he was worried.

"Brother Du, I continue to send people to look for a hundred miles near Xinghuo Town, but there is one thing I need to admit frankly, I have just received a holy decree from Your Majesty, ordering me to take the princess back to the court one day, first, Your Majesty misses the little princess, and second, the war is imminent, and the DPRK needs me to go back to coordinate the overall situation and make strategic deployments. Guo Xiong hesitated slightly, then said so, with a hint of apology on his face.

"General Guo doesn't have to be like this, state affairs are important, although it is to bring the princess back to the court. Du Fan hurriedly got up and opened his mouth to persuade.

"I have some suggestions, can Brother Du listen to them?" Guo Xiong's expression was relieved and he spoke again.

"The general said yes. ”

"It's best to find Brother Du's friends in these three days, in case there is no news, we might as well go on the road together, when we get to the bifurcation, I will send a team of people to escort you to Kongsangmen, and the princess and I will return to the court first, as for the matter of finding people, I will send another person to pay attention to this matter in Xinghuo Town, as soon as there is news, it will be conveyed to you and me, what do you think?" Guo Xiong thought of a way to get the best of both worlds.

"That's so good, I won't say much thanks. Du Fan's eyes lit up and he agreed.

......

Three days later, a large group of soldiers slowly marched out of the gate of Xinghuo Town, accompanied by the farewell of the people in the city, left Xinghuo Town, and marched to the southeast.

There was still no news of Ruoxi and Xiaohu in the past three days, and Du Fan had no choice but to leave Xinghuo Town with Guo Xiong's army.

A month later, a majestic mountain appeared in front of Du Fan's army, and two avenues were separated from the left and right under the foot of the mountain.

"Brother Du, this is the fork I said before, let's separate, as for that matter, you don't have to worry. Looking at the majestic mountain, Guo Xiong's face showed a hint of returning to his heart, but he still did not forget to appease Du Fan.

"Since the first time I saw General Guo, I have been bothering, I really can't help it, I don't want to thank you, we'll see you again!" Du Fan turned over and dismounted, clenching his fists.

"Okay, goodbye!" Guo Xiong also turned over and dismounted, clenched his fists and smiled.

"Uncle Guo, I have something to say to Brother Du alone, can you avoid it. At this time, the sedan curtain not far behind them was lifted, and Han Xuan'er showed her little head and spoke in a low voice.

"Haha, naturally, all obey the order, turn right, advance ten zhang, cover your ears tightly, don't eavesdrop, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law!" Guo Xiong laughed, and strode to the right first, and the other soldiers naturally complied.

Seeing this, Han Xuan'er's little face flushed slightly, but she was relieved to see her appearance.

Du Fan felt funny, and did not let the little princess get out of the sedan chair, but took the initiative to walk over.

"The villain Du Fan greeted the princess, I don't know what the princess called me?" Du Fan joked and pretended to bow down.

"You...... Brother Du, don't be like this. Han Xuan'er was startled and panicked.

"Okay, tell me something. Du Fan chuckled lightly and put away his banter.

"Brother Du, can you squat down and close your eyes. Han Xuan'er's voice was weak, and she didn't dare to look directly at Du Fan.

Du Fan smiled slightly, without words, and did it directly.

After a while, Du Fan felt that his cheeks were touched by an extremely soft object, which felt warm and greasy, and the touch was excellent, and he couldn't help but open his eyes in surprise, and saw Han Xuan'er, who had withdrawn his lips and blushed like a ripe apple.

"You girl, what kind of tricks are you doing. Du Fan couldn't help but wonder.

"I heard a sister in the palace opera troupe say that after the hero saves the beauty, the woman should marry the man who saved her, and I ...... I am willing to marry you. After the little princess was nervous for a while, she bit her lip and said something serious that made Du Fan stunned, and finally her long eyelashes flashed, and her beautiful big eyes looked at Du Fan without blinking.

"Hehe, you're a little beauty, I'm not a hero. Du Fan finally couldn't help laughing, thinking that he was already close to standing when he was on earth, and now he has lived from fifteen years old to eighteen years old now in this other world, after more than three years, together, his real age is over thirty, and he was confessed by a five-year-old girl, and threatened to marry him, which made him feel absurd and weird at the same time, but also a little funny.

Seeing Du Fan's appearance, the little princess pouted, and she was about to cry aggrieved, Du Fan's eyes were quick, and she hurriedly comforted her, and said something like waiting for her to grow up, so that the little princess burst into tears and laughed.

Du Fan breathed a sigh of relief, the cool air behind his back was rising, and the corners of his eyes subconsciously glanced at the group of armor soldiers who were standing neatly in the distance, still covering their ears with their backs, and shrunk their necks.

"It doesn't matter if you cry once, if you are seen by this group of soldiers who are loyal to the country, you won't instantly cut me into pieces. Du Fan thought secretly with palpitations.

......

After March, a series of mountains came into view of Du Fan, and a soldier behind him told him that it was where the Kongsang Gate was, and it seemed that it would be a few days away.

Du Fan is still quite looking forward to becoming a disciple of the Immortal Sect, after becoming a real cultivator, he can practice the exercises and cultivate the immortal arts, and then he can take the opportunity to study and see what this cultivation is all about, and why Ruoxi's cloud and rain technique can rain out of nothing.

On the other hand, he also had to find a place to settle down in this troubled world, which was the situation and what he wanted in his heart. Du Fan has no desire for money or fame, and if he has no ties from his loved ones, he just wants to find a quiet place where he can study the biological sciences he loves, and he is satisfied.

If it weren't for the Yao family's changes, life in the Yao family's medicine garden would be the most satisfying for him, every day while studying the herbs, watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court, looking at the clouds in the sky, watching the little tiger stuffing chicken legs, watching Ruoxi send a basket of delicacies, and watching the acacia tree that grows up every day...... It was the simplest life, but he couldn't enjoy it.

It's not bad to see the mountain running dead horses, obviously I feel that the mountain range is near, but I still rode a horse for more than ten days to come to the foot of the mountain where the mountain gate is located.

"Mr. Du, we can only send it here, and the people we are waiting for will not be able to go up to the Immortal Mountain, otherwise the consequences will be serious. A soldier turned over and dismounted, and said politely to Du Fan.

"There are a few people who escort you all the way, and I can't call the shots here, so I can't entertain you, I hope you understand. Du Fan clenched his fists, looking a little apologetic.

"Mr. Du doesn't need to do this, we just took the general's order, and then went back to our lives. After bowing, the armor soldier got on his horse again and led a small group of more than a dozen cavalry armorers back the same way.

Looking at the rolling dust kicked up by the Red Feather Cavalry, Du Fan fell silent, and after a long time, he exhaled deeply, with a hint of determination in his eyes, and stepped up the mountain.
