I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 173 General Chen's Exploration
"I was delayed for four and a half days when I came out. I guess I have a lot of things waiting for me to do. I have to go back to the city soon, so I won't go all the way with the Taoist priest." Wu Xia said, "Even if I go all the way, I have to go to the city. divided."

"Woman, go ahead and get busy."

"it is good!"

"Walk slowly."

"thorough……"

Wu Xia yelled, but didn't hit the horse, the yellow-maned horse started to run by itself, the horse's hoof splashed a little bit of mud.

Although the horse is short, it does not run slowly.

It turned out to be a horse.

The figure quickly disappeared on the official road ahead.

Song You looked away.

It's just that this heroine took her out for a walk, and she was delayed for four and a half days. Not to mention that she didn't find the Miracle Doctor Cai she was looking for, it was also because she was involved in the disputes between the Jianghu people.I also don't know if those Jianghu people who want to seize the painting remember her, and whether they will find her trouble.

In short, I feel a little sorry.

It's useless to think too much, so he simply didn't want to, the Taoist just walked slowly along the side of the road.

The girl next to her seemed to have no worries at all, but she broke a stick out of nowhere and hit the heads of the weeds by the roadside, making noises with her mouth.Whenever there are dragonflies and butterflies flying by on the road, she will jump up to catch them no matter what. When they fall to the ground, they often splash a lot of mud.

Changjing City is getting closer.

Suddenly there was a messy and heavy sound of horseshoes behind him.

"thorough!"

Turning around to look, I saw a few tall horses coming with whips, riding on armored guards, before they approached, they kept shouting:
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

The Taoist hurriedly grabbed the girl's wrist, pulled it to his side, watched the guards pass by, followed their words, and let them go to the soil on the side of the road.

Then he turned his head and looked in the direction the imperial army came from.

A large group of people was slowly approaching.

The first three tall horses.

The two horses walking in the front, one is pure white and flawless, without a single hair, it is a white jade lion.A horse as pure black as ink, with a shiny body like black satin, it is a black night black-headed beast.Sitting immediately were two handsome young men, probably no older than 20 years old, dressed in hunting suits, with outstanding bearing.

These two horses are already majestic and majestic, rare horses in the world, but the horse that is half a head behind them is a head taller than them, black and white, and looks extraordinary.

The man on horseback was wearing a red robe, with bulging bags under the red robe, he looked very majestic, and he was actually wearing armor in this hot day.

People have seen this horse, and people have seen it.

The three talked freely, but most of the time only the two young men were talking, one was talkative and the other was elegant and gentle, while the general around him was silent most of the time, only echoing the two when they asked about themselves. Sentence, seems to lack interest.

There are many servant sergeants behind.

The most eye-catching thing is a cart, which is full of prey, including deer, rabbits, goats, wolves and leopards.

The group got closer and closer.

The general looked around habitually, and just glanced casually. After seeing the Taoist on the side of the road ahead, he never looked away, nor did he reply to the words of the two noble youths.

Until he came to the Taoist.

"..."

The general only lightly grabbed the rein and lifted it, without pulling hard or making a sound, the horse comprehended it and stopped.

"Call..."

Only then did shouts sound from around and behind him.

All the teams stopped there.

The general stopped on his horse, folded his hands sideways, and said in a steady voice to the roadside Taoist:
"See you again, sir."

The Taoist on the side of the road immediately saluted and replied:

"I met General Chen."

Seeing this, the two young men had their own ideas.

The older boy narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he instantly knew who this Taoist was and why General Chen met him.

The younger boy looked puzzled, but he also had a gentle demeanor, smiling like a spring breeze, and asked the general beside him:

"The general met an old acquaintance?"

"Returning to Your Highness, it's an old acquaintance."

The general replied calmly, and continued to look at the Taoist: "I don't know where this sir came from?"

"Go outside the mountain for a walk."

"But you want to go back to the city?"

"Exactly."

"It has just rained and the road is muddy. We met by fate. I wonder if Mr. Chen is lucky. Could you invite Mr. Chen to go with you?"

General Chen looked back as he spoke.

Immediately, a guard dismounted from his horse, stepped in the mud, grabbed the reins and walked towards the Taoist.

The Taoist looked down at his feet, shook his head and refused: "Thank you General for your kindness, but the shoes are already dirty, so it doesn't matter. Although I want to go back to the city, I am not in a hurry."

"Sir, you are very elegant."

"It's not Yaxing, it's really too far along the way, and the capital is so close, it's not bad."

"..."

The people around looked at each other again.

But I didn't expect that the well-known general Chen Ziyi, who holds a heavy army in his hand, would dare to refuse such a polite invitation.

I saw the general sitting on the horse nodded, thoughtful, then turned around and bowed his hands to the people around him: "Your Highness, the capital city is just around the corner, Chen is lucky to meet an old acquaintance today, so I invite you two Your highness will go back to the city first, let Chen have a chat with Mr., so as to reminisce about the old days."

"Natural nature..."

The older boy quickly replied.

The younger one wanted to say something more, but he had no choice but to give up when he heard the words, and only looked curiously at the Taoist who was leading the girl standing by the roadside.

The large troops continued to move forward, leaving only General Chen and two of his own soldiers standing still.

"Sir, don't you really ride a horse?"

"Good intentions to take it."

"Sir, the children around him are young, so Chen can spare a horse." General Chen looked at the girl next to the Taoist again.

"We have horses!"

The girl looked up at him.

"Alright."

Without hesitation, the general turned over and got down, led the horse and approached the Taoist, and saluted again with a smile: "When we met in the palace earlier, Chen wanted to talk more with Mr. Chen, but he couldn't enjoy himself. He didn't want to return to the city this time, but It is really a fate to meet Mr. on the side of the road."

"General, this is..."

"Accompany the two Highnesses out of the city to hunt." The general looked at the group of people who were walking away, and added, "Your Majesty's order."

"Then the general will have some problems when he goes back."

"It's true."

"Why is the general wearing heavy armor when he goes out to hunt in the city?"

"There are many tigers, bears and ferocious beasts outside the city, and occasionally there are monsters who have become spirits. If you want to protect Your Highness, you must wear armor."

"I see."

Song You smiled and didn't ask any more questions.

The large army went further and further away, and the forbidden army at the back also left. The Taoist went back to the official road and walked forward, but there was already a general and two personal soldiers by his side, all neatly dressed and walking with horses.

"In recent days, the city has been full of rumors about the Taiwei's Mansion. Some people even said that the gods descended to earth and turned into mortals to punish treacherous ministers and bullies." Find out how tall and majestic his figure is, especially the heavy armor under his robes, "Dignitaries know better. I don't know how many people have gone to look for Mr. in the past few days, but who would have thought that Mr. ran outside the city?" I went to look for an expert, I'm afraid they all got rejected."

"Do the people in the city know what I did?"

"Most don't know."

"That's fine."

"It seems that Mr. Xijing is quiet."

"Most Taoists like to be quiet."

"Too."

"How does the general know that he is going out of the city to visit an expert?" the Taoist asked with a smile.

"In the palace before, Mr. asked the national teacher who are the high-level people in Changjing. Mr. traveled all over the world, so he has the heart to search." General Chen replied unhurriedly, "What's more, this morning, I will wait for you to leave. On the road, I met a group of Jianghu people armed with knives and sticks. They were very embarrassed, and they were stopped by the military academy. After questioning, I heard a story about a fairy, and I guess Mr. Lai went to find the snake fairy in Beiqin Mountain."

"I see."

"Mister is really a good method."

"It's all done by the Snake Fairy." The Taoist said truthfully, "But I didn't go to find the Snake Fairy, but to find Doctor Cai. They are both in Beiqin Mountain, but one is on the periphery and the other is in the depths. I didn't get to see the demeanor of Divine Doctor Cai, but met the Snake Fairy instead."

"That's also fate."

General Chen glanced at the long box behind him.

Neither of them mentioned Dou's paintings.

There is no need to mention it at this time.

It's always been like this--

Although this painting is precious, it can cost many people in Jiang Hu their lives, but it also depends on where it is placed.

Living in the rivers and lakes is the source of the bloody storm.The treasure house placed in the family of important ministers in the court may also lead to a battle between open and secret.But if it is hung in the palace, it will be the talk of the world.Although General Chen has never seen the abilities of a Taoist, he can roughly guess a thing or two, and no one can take it away from him.

"Traveling in the lower reaches of the world, there are still many places I haven't been to. I wonder if I can ask the general for advice."

"Know everything and say everything."

"I heard that after the war in the north, there were ten rooms and nine empty borders, and there was no chicken crowing for thousands of miles." The Taoist asked as he walked, "I don't know if it's true or not?"

"real."

Short answer, without the slightest emotion.

Like a word in a history book.

When the general gave this answer, there was no expression on his face. He didn't speak until he finished answering this word, was silent for a while, and took a few steps forward. Cruel, whenever the Saibei barbarians come to our place, they are like locusts crossing the border, leaving no one behind, and this has been the case for thousands of years."

"Then how about we go there?"

"It's the same."

"I heard that there are many demons making trouble in the north."

"It's not a rumor." The general replied as he walked, "Mr. is an expert, so he must know that once there is no human habitation in a place, it belongs to demons. And once a lot of people die in a place, the demons in this place are even more powerful." Wanton madness, as terrible as the plague."

"Can there be a god in the north?"

"I'm the guard general of Dayan's frontier army. He only cares about fighting barbarians outside the country, and seldom cares about monsters." The general paused, "But I often hear rumors of priests descending from the rear and fighting demons at night."

"Is that so..."

The two continued to walk and chat.

The Taoist has heard the story of this general for a long time, and he has heard it countless times. How could he not want to talk to him?

What's more, there are things in the north that I want to ask.

It's a pity that the last time they met was in the palace, and today is the protagonist, so it's inconvenient for the two of them to talk too much.

At this time, it happened to be a good opportunity.

The general also has something to test him.

So the pace was three minutes slower than in the past, talking to each other, the Taoist saw the customs of the north, and also saw this general who was destined to live forever, and the city of Changjing was getting closer and closer.

"Going into town soon."

"Is General Chen okay?"

"It's time for Chen to go after the two Highnesses."

"This is a major event, I dare not delay the general."

General Chen laughed, turned over and got on the horse, sat on the horse's back, but looked at the Taoist again, not in a hurry to leave: "Chen has forgotten something."

"General, please speak."

"In the previous northern war, it was thanks to the master's ability to predict things like a god that Dayan was able to win so easily. Chen was really curious about reckoning and divination." General Chen stared at him, "Sir, even the master is highly respected." Immortal master, do you know if you are also familiar with fortune-telling?"

"Let the general down, I don't know how to do this."

"Sir, are you serious? Don't lie to me."

"Just now I have asked the general many times, the general knows everything, and I am very grateful. Now that the general has something to ask, how can I lie and hide it?"

The general lowered his head and the Taoist raised his head.

The two looked at each other sincerely.

it is more than words.

"Thank you sir."

"You are welcome, General."

"I wonder if I can come to visit Mr. next time?"

"Naturally."

"This is my farewell."

"thorough!"

The piebald beast ran wildly like the wind and thunder.

Two soldiers behind him also followed on horseback.

The three figures quickly moved away.

The Taoist withdrew his eyes and smiled. The comparison between the people in the story and the reality of the people in the story, the comparison between the young man at the time and the general whom the emperor fears today, is really wonderful.
