Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 607 606. Not yet time

"Brother Keming is here? Look!"

At the top of the hillside, immediately after Li Shimin heard the sound of horseshoes, he turned his head and saw Du Ruhui, and told him to look forward without saying a word.

Du Ruhui was full of doubts, wondering what he was asked to see.

After riding the horse to the top of the slope, look around...

Suddenly I was stunned...

Into the eyes, a piece of blue-yellow color.

Pieces of wheat seedlings sway gently with the breeze, reflecting a beautiful landscape.

"This is……"

Du Ruhui's face was dull.

Immediately afterwards, he suddenly touched the luggage hanging on the horse behind him.

After quickly digging out the map of Hedong, he compared it with a certain route, and then, a touch of ecstasy spread quickly on his face:
"It's the Taoist priest! Hahahahaha! It must be the Taoist priest, you can't be wrong! The Taoist priest must have passed by here a few days ago!"

Half of his eyes are longing, and half are joy.

Hearing his words, Li Shimin also nodded:
"Well, it seems that Taoist Priest Shouchu has indeed passed by here. Then it means..."

"The Taoist priest has completed at least half of the goal!"

After putting away the map, Du Ruhui sighed with emotion.

Subconsciously looked back.

In the rear, the endless long line is slowly advancing.

This is a refugee team of about 8000 people.

It is the result of Cui's third entry to the north of Hedong.

And the reason why Li Shimin next to him appeared is also very simple, Cui's movement is so big, as Governor of Hedong, he has no reason not to come to express his condolences.

It's just that others may just express condolences, but he really came.

He also brought five hundred elite cavalry, willing to serve as scouts and heralds. Since he appeared more than ten days ago, he has really put in a lot of effort.

After all...compared to Cui Shi, and himself, the master of Hedong.

The young general who defeated them on the battlefield personally made a promise of tenderness to guarantee their safety when they came out...

Then the recruitment matter became smoother as it should be.

Li Shimin's arrival can not only reach an agreement with the Cui family, let the Cui family accept this favor, but also "integrate" into the most powerful camp in Hedong, plus his superhuman communication skills...

If it weren't for Du Ruhui's constant sobriety, he might have been like Cui Ling and the others, wishing he could become friends with him?

But this is so, even Du Ruhui has to admit it.

This person...is really good at being friends.

A gentleman's sincerity, trust, benevolence, righteousness, and commitment are all lacking, open and aboveboard, passionate and passionate!

Even he couldn't help but be impressed.

It's just a pity...

Recalling the Taoist priest's words "I still don't like him", Du Ruhui was filled with regret.

At this time, he heard Li Shimin's words:
"Brother Keming, why don't I send some elite soldiers to look around? If they don't go far, let's meet?"

"Need not."

Du Ruhui instinctively rejected Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was taken aback...

He couldn't think of why Du Ruhui would let go of this opportunity.

But Du Ruhui is well aware of Chang's character.

Because after the two counties of Shangluo and Hongnong came down, he understood that when doing this kind of thing, the Taoist chief followed his own pace wholeheartedly.

Nothing will be delayed.

Don't say you sent someone to look for him, what if you found him?

Compared with the people in Hedong, what is a small meeting?
So, facing the puzzled Li Shimin, Du Ruhui just smiled and said:

"It's not the time yet... When we meet Yu Kuan, then we must have a good time. But now..."

He pointed to the large army behind:

"Not yet."

……

"It's not yet time, just wait."

Cui Wanrong said to herself silently.

But inevitably, when she landed in Li Zhen who was resting in the carriage, there was some sadness in her eyes.

In fact, she had a pretty good idea at the beginning, and through this trip with the Taoist priest, she will draw closer to each other, and after the Taoist priest realizes her excellence, she will show her feelings through some subtle behaviors, and tell him clear.

But from the day Yu Qiang came out, she noticed a... not right rhythm.

She doesn't practice Taoism or Buddhism, so she didn't quite understand why those practitioners or monks practiced Zen in a certain place for many years.

But after more than a month of walking with Li Zhen, a feeling gradually developed.

Cultivating Taoism and Buddhism can only be accomplished by those with great perseverance.

Because there is an emotion in this world called loneliness.

And this loneliness...

It's very hard.

For more than a month, the team has become accustomed to a rhythm, that is, everything depends on "one hour".

This hour determines what to do in the next hour, and in the next hour to determine what they will do in the next hour.

The arrangement must be precise enough so as not to delay the marching rhythm of the team.

Or... the rhythm of Taoist priest waking up.

Every time after using Light and Dust, the Taoist priest has to enter a rest period of about an hour.In the past, it might have taken a little more than an hour, or with some pills.

But in recent days, Taoist Priest's cultivation seems to have improved a bit, and he can wake up with exactly one hour each time... more accurate than the sun that day.

After waking up, no matter whether it's eating or resting, you have to deal with it quickly, then confirm the progress of the team, and then continue to enter a state of cultivation.

Finally, after arriving at the next arranged village, after displaying the light and dust that was no longer unusual to them, they continued to return to the chariots and horses.

day to day.

Incomparably precise.

And for more than a month, everyone has even become numb.

Including Cui Wanrong.

Along the way, Li Zhen even talked to her less and less.

At the same time, his face became more and more tired.

There was hardly any communication. With the tacit understanding among the people, sometimes, he only needed to take a look after getting off the car to know what was going on.

This led to...the two of them had no chance to communicate at all.

In fact, Cui Wanrong felt that she had also become the kind of "tool man" that Taoist priests use to laugh at themselves.

Everything is completely different from what she thought.

But then again, if you think about it carefully, their achievements in this month or so are enough to make everyone dumbfounded.

The sporadic green wheat that grows in the fields and takes root under the soil to absorb nutrients is now the driving force for the survival of the old and weak women and children in Hedong.

And all of this is the result of their hard work.

Every time she thinks of this, she always feels a sense of accomplishment in her heart.

It's just that this sense of accomplishment doesn't last long, and it will be replaced by numbness.

And amidst this numbness, suddenly, the whistle sounded.

In an instant, Cui Wanrong stood up and looked in the direction of the whistle, but was suddenly taken aback...

It was a flying imperial envoy of the Cui family.

The wind and dust, blowing the spoon, attracted the attention of everyone here.

The whole team quickly sent out several people to go to meet them.

Soon, a secret letter appeared in Cui Wanrong's hands.

She was puzzled.

Why does the family use this method to send letters to themselves?
While thinking, he opened the letterhead.

Just after reading a few words, his face suddenly changed, his eyes were full of solemnity:

"Xianfeng Army!?"

　No knife, no knife, rest assured...
