Chapter 116 The Allied Forces Evacuated Innocently, Xu Zhiqing Returns to the Mountain

When Xu Zhiqing heard that Guo Jing blamed himself again, he felt amused and admired at the same time.

When dealing with responsibility, some people's first reaction is to push it away, and even find some people to take the blame.

Guo Jing is not like this.

However, he didn't want to talk to Guo Jing about it.

"Okay, brother Guo, Yang Guo is my apprentice and your nephew, he made a mistake, it's our common fault!"

"Fortunately, he didn't make a big mistake!"

Xu Zhiqing was lucky to say this, who knows what Yang Guo, who hates his superiors, can do.

In case something happened to Guo Xiang, he really didn't know how to face Guo Jing.

Guo Jing also nodded with emotion: "Yes, otherwise I don't know how to treat him!"

Huang Rong saw that Guo Jing seemed to want to take responsibility after expressing his emotions, so she hurriedly asked Xu Zhiqing.

"Junior Brother Xu, where did he go after he separated from you the other day?"

Xu Zhiqing listened to Huang Rong's question and replied: "He has returned to Zhongnan Mountain!"

He glanced at Guo Jing and Huang Rong, and said softly, "I said I'm going to see Uncle Qiu and ask him what kind of person his father is!"

His words made Guo Jing show remorse again.

"Hey, it's my fault! If I had kept my brother with me, maybe I could have changed his behavior!"

When Xu Zhiqing heard that Guo Jing did this again, he chose to ignore it.

"Brother Guo, when I separated from him, I also promised him something!"

After he finished speaking, he saw Guo Jing looking at him seriously, waiting for his next words.

He also continued: "If he finds out who his father is and still chooses to take revenge, I won't choose to intervene!"

His words seemed to make Huang Rong and Guo Jing somewhat suspicious.

Huang Rong was even more tentative: "Brother Xu, you... did you ever know about the death of my son's father?"

Xu Zhiqing smiled lightly and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't need to test, I do know about his father's death."

"Even, I think he deserved his death! It's just a pity for my disciple's mother, and my disciple!"

The former was wrongly paid in his whole life, while the latter always imagined that his father was a hero.

When Guo Jing and Huang Rong heard what Xu Zhiqing said, they were also curious about how Xu Zhiqing learned about Yang Kang's death?
Only the two of them know about this matter!

Oh, by the way, and silly girl!
Huang Rong thought of this and wanted to test again.

"Junior Brother, haven't you met my father and silly aunt?"

As soon as Xu Zhiqing heard Huang Rong's question, he knew what Huang Rong was thinking.

"Sister-in-law, it wasn't the idiot who told me, but I have also met Huang Island Master and the idiot!"

As Xu Zhiqing spoke, he simply changed the subject.

"I just don't know what my apprentice will do after knowing who his father is!"

Guo Jing let out a long sigh when he heard the words: "I was worried that I wouldn't be able to take the blow!"

Xu Zhiqing is helpless, shouldn't he be worried about other things?

For example, Yang came to revenge and went astray?

He didn't want to talk about Yang Guo's matter with Guo Jing again, he felt confused.

"Brother Guo, let's talk about Guo'er when we see him! The matter of going south from Mongolia is the most urgent thing at the moment!"

"It's like the situation of the Mongolian camp now. If you have a soldier, would you attack the Mongolian camp?"

Guo Jing heard Xu Zhiqing mention the war between Mongolia and the Southern Song Dynasty, so he didn't think about Yang Guo either.

He thought for a while and asked with a smile, "Brother Xu, are you testing me?"

After laughing, he thought about it for a while.

"It depends on the situation. If what happened in the Mongolian camp is true, it is true that the camp was bombed! I will definitely lead the team to attack them!"

As he spoke, he also stated the reason for the attack.

"Because the bombing of the camp is a very terrifying situation, they are killing each other like crazy! Except for the general and the personal guards, no one is in a sober state!"

"If there are soldiers and horses fighting out at this time, it doesn't take too many people to annihilate them!"

Xu Zhiqing was lost in thought, and he suddenly asked again.

"Brother Guo, why is General Lu unwilling to give you the military authority!"

"With your ability, the army must be in your hands, so it can play a better role, right?"

His words directly silenced Guo Jingqian.

Xu Zhiqing was not in a hurry, he quietly waited for Guo Jing to speak later.

Finally, after seeing Guo Jing silent for a long time, he spoke again.

"Brother Xu, I'm white, neither a civil servant nor a general, how can I lead Song soldiers to fight?"

"Besides, it's not a matter of ability or incompetence. Leading troops to fight and being an official are actually two different things!"

"Talk too much, and you don't quite understand the twists and turns. The main thing is that we can fight against Mongolia together is the most important thing!"

After hearing Guo Jing's words, Xu Zhiqing was also silenced.

He sighed inwardly, he still had a lot of ideas to say, but after hearing Guo Jing's words, he felt that he could not change the status quo.

Just don't say it.

In the end, he just asked: "Brother Guo, if I have an army in my hands, I wonder if you can come and help me?"

What he said made Guo Jing's face change slightly.

"Brother Xu, what do you mean by that?"

Xu Zhiqing smiled and did not answer.

He changed the subject again.

"Brother Guo, what do you think of Mongolia and the Southern Song Dynasty? What do you think of the people in the world?"

His words made Guo Jing a little confused.

"How else can we look at this? Mongolia and Song Mingming have an alliance, and they will not attack each other!"

"The Mongolian country went south to attack the Song Dynasty and betrayed the covenant! They are wrong!"

Xu Zhiqing was a little speechless when he heard that Guo Jing used the wrong word to describe it. This is not what he wanted to see.

He could only turn his head to look at Huang Rong's sister-in-law.

When Huang Rong saw Xu Zhiqing's gaze, she smiled helplessly, and then whispered something in Guo Jing's ear.

Guo Jing suddenly understood.

"Brother Xu, so you asked me to evaluate the two countries."

Seeing Xu Zhiqing staring at him without speaking, Guo Jing coughed lightly.

"In fact, Mongolia has nothing to say. They are tyrannical, domineering, and have a very strong military!"

"They are an army on horseback. When they attack, they are as fast as the wind! They are as fierce as fire! They are irresistible on the plain!"

"Brother Xu can see it!"

Xu Zhiqing twitched his lips, how could he tell what the Mongolian army was like, and he didn't even know much about Mongolia.

"Brother Guo, please continue!"

Guo Jing nodded: "However, they are too cruel and oppressive! Anyone who dares to disobey their orders will be enslaved, or beheaded!"

Xu Zhiqing nodded slightly, he had seen the brutality of Mongolian soldiers, and the cruelty of Mongolian soldiers to people who were not of their own clan!

"What about the Southern Song Dynasty?"

"The Southern Song Dynasty is a country of our Han nationality. It is dominated by cities, farming and trade. It is very good to live and work in peace when there is no war!"

"It's just that the Southern Song Dynasty is weak compared to Mongolia, but if we defend the city, we will definitely be able to prevent Mongolia from going south!"

Guo Jing's tone became sonorous after speaking.

It seemed to be said to Xu Zhiqing, and it seemed to be said to himself.

Xu Zhiqing felt that Guo Jing was fooling him.

Seeing this, he also asked casually.

"Brother Guo, what if Xiangyang City is captured by Mongols?"

Guo Jing's answer this time was no longer sonorous, but very calm.

"If the city exists, the people will exist. If the city is destroyed, the people will perish!"

Xu Zhiqing thought about Guo Jing's ending,

He sighed inwardly.

"What about the people?"

"Actually, Brother Wei doesn't know what to say to the people, but I just think that if they can have food and clothing, they will be very happy!"

"Senior Brother Guo, do you think the people today have food and clothing?"

Guo Jing smiled wryly.

"That's what they would have been without the war, and yet the war has ruined their lives!"

Is it just war?
Nations are at war with nations.

What about in the country?
Probably class.

Xu Zhiqing sighed softly in his heart, what war brings is cruelty visible to the naked eye, but the cruelty of class cannot be seen by ordinary people.

For example, the people in the Southern Song Dynasty worked hard to cultivate for a year, but in the end they were still short on food and clothing.

They plowed the land, they planted the food, and in the end, all the fruits went into the pockets of the 'adults'.

What they get for themselves is still a kind reward from the mouths of 'adults'?

Forget it, those 'grown-ups' made them feel grateful in turn.

In the past, even if he thought of this, he didn't bother to change.

Because the wheel of the times cannot be turned by him.

But now he suddenly thought, why don't he stop the wheel from turning and push it hard?

What will happen?

Xu Zhiqing was thinking about this, but heard Guo Jing turn against him.

"Brother Xu, do you have other ideas?"

Xu Zhiqing was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

"I do have some other ideas, but it's a bit far away to say them out. Let's wait for a day. I'll tell you when the day is right!"

Xu Zhiqing knew that being a riddle would be uncomfortable.

But there are some things that are not suitable for him to say now.

He can't say that he doesn't think the country of the Southern Song Dynasty is very good, and he doesn't want Mongolia to rule, right?
He said this to Guo Jing, so it was guaranteed that Guo Jing would give him Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms or something.

If Xu Zhiqing was a riddler, others might be upset, but he didn't think Guo Jing would.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, he saw Guo Jing nodded in understanding, and said to him: "Then I will wait for the day you said!"

Seeing this, Xu Zhiqing nodded in response.

Just as he was doing this, Guo Jing suddenly said to him: "Brother Xu, you are the chief disciple of the Quanzhen sect, and you should take over as the head teacher in the future!"

"Although the Quanzhen Sect is in Mongolia, I believe in the anti-Mongolian hearts of the Quanzhen Sect!"

"I hope Brother Xu will be like this in the future!"

Xu Zhiqing smiled after hearing this.

Brother Guo doesn't think he's going to vote for Mongolia, does he?
He shook his head: "Brother Guo, please rest assured that my Quanzhen faction is united in fighting against Mongolia, and nothing will change!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Jing patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, I believe in you!"

Xu Zhiqing didn't know whether Guo Jing really believed it or pretended to believe it. He wanted to leave now, and he didn't have anything else to talk about after talking here.

Before he could speak, Guo Jing proposed to go to the city wall to have a look together.

Xu Zhiqing thought for a while and agreed.

This time he didn't let his junior sister follow him.

Junior sister vomited a lot yesterday, and he didn't want junior sister to vomit again.

On the city wall, Xu Zhiqing and Guo Jing stood side by side.

The two looked at each other, and the Mongolian camp yesterday seemed extraordinarily quiet today.

In other words, it was more like a big camp without people.

Not to mention that Xu Zhiqing was confused, even Guo Jing didn't understand it.

Bombing camps belongs to bombing camps, but not all soldiers bomb camps, there are always some generals whose guards can't bomb.

In addition, after the bombing of the camp, if there is no surprise attack by other troops, if the general responds yes, the soldiers can be gathered at dawn.

But this military camp, no matter how you look at it, looks like an empty camp?
"Is there no one left?"

Xu Zhiqing muttered.

Guo Jing frowned: "It can't really be a trick of the Mongolians, right?"

He also had some doubts.

They didn't do anything else yesterday, how could the Mongolian army retreat?
He couldn't figure it out.

Inexplicably, he thought of the devil that the Mongolian soldiers said.

Thinking about it, Guo Jing turned to Xu Zhiqing and said, "Brother Xu, do you still dare to go to the Mongolian camp with me today?"

"What's wrong with that!"

Xu Zhiqing shook his head, and went down the city wall with Guo Jing.

The two asked for two fast horses.

"Leader, Daoist Xu, be careful!"

Lu Youjiao saw that the two of them were going to visit the Mongolian Camp, and he wanted to persuade them, but he didn't say anything.

People in the army, just some disciples of the beggar gang, were a little farther away from the Mongolian camp to see if they could catch some scattered Mongolian soldiers.

They would not dare to let them spy on the Mongolian camp.

The defenders of Xiangyang City did not dare to leave the city without the order of the general.

Xu Zhiqing nodded, and rode away with Guo Jing.

When the two reached a certain distance from the Mongolian camp, they tied up the horses, and the two sneaked outside the Mongolian camp.

Xu Zhiqing turned his head to look and found that there were no soldiers patrolling outside the Mongolian camp.

"Brother Guo, if they use a strategy, what kind of strategy is it?"

Guo Jing said in a soft voice: "Lord Lu has asked the spies to find out that there are no Mongolian soldiers ambushing around the Mongolian camp, and there are signs of the army retreating!"

"If these are the tactics of the Mongols, then they should be ambushing in the camp or something, but I don't understand why?"

Guo Jing had fought in wars before, and had never encountered such a situation.

This kind of place really looks like a camp that has run away.

After Xu Zhiqing listened to Guo Jing's words, he said softly: "Don't worry about them, let's touch them and have a look!"

Seeing Guo Jing nodding, he said: "You look at the south, I look at the north, we two look separately, if there is an ambush, we will evacuate!"

Guo Jing said solemnly: "No matter what the result is, we will gather here in half an hour!"

Xu Zhiqing nodded, turned over and went to the south direction of the Mongolia camp.

After carefully touching in, he carefully poked open a yurt, and after a glance, there was no ambush inside.

So he went to check one by one, and found that every yurt was empty.

There is no such thing as an ambush at all.

After reading it, he came to the location where the grain and grass were, and found that the grain and grass had been burned.

He confirmed that the Mongolian camp was indeed empty, and he didn't think about gathering with Guo Jing, but let out a long roar.

After Xu Zhiqing's long roar.

After a while, Guo Jing appeared here.

"Brother Xu, I thought you were ambushed!"

"No, I looked over there, and there wasn't a single soldier!"

"Me too!"

"It seems that the Mongolian soldiers have indeed withdrawn, but I don't know what else happened to them besides us last night?"

Xu Zhiqing didn't think about himself, instead he thought it would be better for the Mongolian army to leave Xiangyang City.

After he helped Guo Jing rescue Da Wu and Xiao Wu, he wanted to go back to Zhongnan Mountain with Xiao Longnv.

When he goes back, he needs to change his saber technique to suit the army.

It's a pity that he didn't get the foreign skill of iron sand palm from Qiu Qianchi.

He can only find a way from Master Yideng when the time comes.

It's just that the Mongolian soldiers besieged the city yesterday, so he thought of staying temporarily to help Guo Jing.

Now that the Mongolian soldiers are leaving, he also has a reason to leave Xiangyang City.

"Brother Guo, let's go back and inform Lord Lu and the others about the departure of the Mongolian army!"

"it is good!"

Back in the city, Xu Zhiqing asked Guo Jing to inform Lu Youjiao and the others, and he would not go.

Turn around and go back to the house.

Xu Zhiqing returned to the courtyard, he watched the little dragon girl and junior sister chatting in the courtyard, laughing non-stop.

He leaned over, but the two changed the subject.

Xu Zhiqing snorted lightly, not intending to inquire.

"Stop chatting, pack up, we are going to leave!"

"Ah, senior brother, shall we leave now?"

"Yes! The Mongolian soldiers are willing to withdraw for some reason, and we can just go back to Zhongnanshan!"

"Yeah, let's go back quickly, this Xiangyang City is too bad!"

Cheng Jiayao thought of the scene under the city wall yesterday, she didn't like staying here at all.

The same goes for Xiaolongnv.

After Xu Zhiqing waited for the two of them to pack up their things, he took Xiaolongnv and junior sister to find his sister-in-law.

Originally, he wanted to go directly to Huang Rong, but he thought that it is not good for a lonely man and a widow to keep looking for his sister-in-law.

Then I went back to the yard to pack up my things before going.

Xu Zhiqing led the two of them to another courtyard, but bumped into Guo Fu.

Before she opened her mouth, seeing them carrying bags, Guo Fu said first, "Little uncle, are you leaving?"

Xu Zhiqing hummed, and said casually, "Where's your mother?"

"Mother is breastfeeding my sister and brother!"

"Oh, then I'll wait for her! After my sister-in-law finishes feeding, you can call her for a while!"

Xu Zhiqing didn't want to tell Guo Fu more, because he felt too embarrassed when he thought of the scene that day.

When Guo Fu saw Xu Zhiqing talking to her, she looked left and right, but didn't look at her.

She immediately understood something in her heart.

After she chuckled, she agreed.

"I'm going to notify my mother now!"

After speaking, she turned and left.

After Xu Zhiqing waited for Guo Fu to leave, he turned to look at Xiaolongnu and his junior sister.

Seeing the two whispering again, he frowned: "Are you two talking ill about me again!"

"no!"

Xiaolongnu and Cheng Jiayao spoke in unison.

Xu Zhiqing wanted to ask again, when he saw Huang Rong walking out of the room with the baby in her arms.

As soon as he saw him, he asked, "Brother Xu, why are you leaving?"

"Sister-in-law, I originally stayed here to help Brother Guo deal with the Mongolian army. Brother Guo and I went to see it earlier, and found that the Mongolian army has withdrawn for some reason!"

"It just so happens that there is an urgent matter at the sect, so I want to leave!"

As Xu Zhiqing said, he cupped his hands and said, "Since we also saw my sister-in-law, let's go. I just want to trouble my sister-in-law and tell them when Senior Brother Guo comes back!"

After he finished speaking, he politely declined Huang Rong's request to them to stay, and then left the mansion on horseback with Xiaolongnv and junior sister.

When Xu Zhiqing passed the city gate and saw that Guo Jing was not there, he had to explain in his heart.

The three of them left Xiangyang City and went straight back to Mount Zhongnan.

Half a month later, the three arrived at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.

The three of Xu Zhiqing had just returned to the yard, and before he had time to rest, his master sent someone to call him over.
