Romance of Gods

Chapter 100 Whispers
In the early morning, the sky is bright, with wild grass, flower stamens and dewdrops.

"Hey! General Chen, Commander Ji!"

The Wei troops reined in their horses and stopped at the cold official road. Chen Yan and his party were stationed at the intersection, looking around cautiously.

Ji Yuan rode to the front of the team and said in a deep voice: "The sergeants from the front army will follow me into the mountain. The rest of the troops will continue to follow General Chen to meet the imperial convoy!"

"Commander Ji, why did you go to the mountain?"

"We were halfway through the journey at night when we discovered that there were bandits wandering around and intruding on the people. The investigation was fruitless and we will continue to search into the mountains today!"

"As ordered!"

The sergeants were wondering why they met Chen Yan and others here. It turned out that they encountered bandits.

Chen Yan nodded to Feng Shanshui and others beside him, and everyone cupped their hands and left with Ji Yuan.

Although everyone took off their armor and covered their faces at night, in order to ensure safety, they still needed to temporarily hide their traces.

At this moment, he also combed his hair smoothly, put on a pair of copper-colored armor, and held a green sinking gun in his hand, looking majestic.

The demon horse under the seat suddenly neighed, and Chen Yan shouted: "Let's go!"

"go!"

"drive!"

A group of fast horses galloped through the morning fog and submerged their bodies into the mountains.

……

"Master Wanqi? Master Wanqi!"

"what!"

Wanqixi's whole body was soaked in pain.

In a frightening nightmare, I suddenly heard someone calling me.

The tide of fear filled his chest again, and he suddenly opened his eyelids, his eyes like bells.

"35! 36! Spare your life, hero!"

Several mindless shouts made Wu Che and others in front look at each other.

"Hey! My dear!"

The beautiful woman stood aside and saw him talking nonsense. She thought he was crazy and immediately jumped on him, howling.

Wu Che hurriedly held up his hands and explained: "Sir Wanqi, you are back. We have wiped out all the bandits who kidnapped you!"

As he spoke, he recalled the previous situation.

At night, he led his troops to search all the way, and finally found Wan Qixi beside the official road.

Wan Qixi is a narrow-minded person and has never been able to deal with the Yue family army.

It is a great sin to fail to guard against thieves yourself.

If this person were to know that the thieves were safe and sound, he would not know how to deal with him afterwards.

Just lie and cover up the matter.

If he wants to see the thief's body, he will say that it was carried away by a wolf.

"Back...back!"

Wan Qixi calmed down and looked at everyone's faces carefully.

The old man, who was nearly sixty years old, suddenly cried like a child and hugged the beautiful woman tightly.

"Go away!"

He pushed the woman away again and groped her body like crazy, muttering: "Imperial decree...Imperial decree..."

"Master Wanqi, are you looking for this?"

Wu Che held the wooden box in front of him.

Wan Qixi's eyes lit up, he snatched it away, opened it and saw that the imperial edict was still there, and gradually calmed down.

He thought to himself, these thieves came from an unusual background. If they were ordinary thieves, why would they ask those questions?
What is their purpose?
"Could it be that Yue Fei's men have been following him from Lin'an? After getting the news, I went to inform Zhang Xian and others... This trip to the Huai River seems to be very dangerous, so be extra careful..."

Wan Qi's brows were twisted like a lock. After thinking about it, he looked at Wu Che and said, "Commander Wu, please pass on the order. Don't leak even a single word about what happened last night!"

He is a high-ranking official, and if he lets the world know that he has been kidnapped by thieves, he will definitely be embellished and spread among Goulan and the market.

He would be a big laughing stock at that time!

This suited Wu Che's wishes and he quickly agreed.

There was no shortage of food last night and no one died, so there is no need to go into detail.

"What about the injuries on the adult's body?"

It was a good thing he didn't mention it. At this moment, Wan Qixi immediately bared his teeth and felt unbearable pain.

"You don't have to worry about it now! Help me get in the car!"

The beautiful woman nodded and helped him back to the carriage. Wu Che got on his horse and ordered to drive off.

"Where's my baby?"

"here."

In the car, the beautiful woman heard the words, smiled, and took out a porcelain bottle from her arms.

Wan Qixi snatched it away, poured out a pitch black pill and swallowed it into his mouth.

After the elixir entered his abdomen, his broken fingers and injuries on his body recovered quickly.

He felt refreshed all over and felt secretly happy.

If he had not made good friends with the imperial master of the Jin Dynasty in his early years, how could he have received such a life-saving divine item?

Wu Che rode in front, holding the handle of the knife tightly with his palm, and the other officers and soldiers were also more vigilant than ever before.

"Who!"

The chaotic sound of horse hooves sounded at the corner of the mountain road, and the entire army formed a formation to block the intersection.

"Back Wei Army! On the order of General Zhang Xian, we welcome the envoy!"

The roar was like a roar, and the mountains and forests shook.

Wu Che and others relaxed after hearing the name of Weijun.

Wan Qixi sat firmly on Mount Tai and looked down upon him. How dare someone come to rob the Tao in broad daylight?

A large number of people turned around the intersection and stopped to meet Wu Che.

Chen Yan put down the reins, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Brothers, thank you for your hard work!" Wu Che saw that the cavalry were carrying the Wei army, but when he saw the young general in front of the formation, he was full of doubts.

The mount under his crotch is terrifying, and what he holds in his hand is actually Yang Zaixing's gun!
He knew all the commanders and chiefs of the Beiwei Army, but he never remembered that there were such figures in the army.

Surprised, he returned the greeting and asked: "I am Wu Che of the Hengjiang Army. May I ask the general his surname?"

"Carry the Wei army, Chen Yan."

"what!"

Wan Qixi, who was closing his eyes to rest and holding his own in the car, suddenly opened his eyes and looked straight at Chen Yan.

"Ok?"

Seeing the strange movement of Wanqi, Chen Yan felt murderous intent in his heart. He held it still, faced him, and said with a smile: "I guess this is the supervisory censor, Master Wanqi?"

Wan Qixi's face was full of surprise, "I'm ashamed. I have been an official for decades and have not made any achievements, but I have gained the reputation of being a censor.

No one can compare with General Chen Yan, who achieved unparalleled achievements in his prime!The future prospects are immeasurable! "

Wu Che was startled when he heard this and looked at Chen Yan in disbelief. How could this person be so famous?

It is unimaginable that Wan Qixi, who was considered a subordinate in the court, showed respect to a low-level officer.

Chen Yan understood what was said. He thought he had been recognized and pretended to be confused, "Master Wanqi, have you ever heard of a humble position?"

"That's natural! If it's convenient for the general, can you come and talk in the car?"

"How dare you disobey your humble position, even if your lord asks me to do so?"

With the support of Bei Weijun, the convoy continued to move forward, and Chen Yan dismounted and entered the carriage.

The wheels crunched and rolled.

The beautiful woman's eyes were seductive, and she was focusing her gaze on Chen Yan's face.

Wan Qixi smiled slightly when he saw this, "I will discuss important matters with General Chen."

"My concubine understands."

After saying that, she pursed her red lips and sang Liu Yong's "Yu Linglin" to cover up her voice.

Chen Yan glanced at Wan Qixi's body and saw that his injuries had healed, so he didn't take it seriously.

Zhang Xiandu possesses healing elixirs, not to mention that he is the first-class person in the dynasty.

He looked out and smiled: "Master Wanqi, this carriage is so unique that it doesn't even have a curtain."

"General Chen is laughing at this. I ordered it to be cut off on purpose. As the commander of the Imperial Envoy, how can I not keep an eye on the six directions and grasp the situation?"

"I admire Master Wanqi's thoughtfulness."

Wan Qixi looked calm and said, "General, you are full of compliments."

"I don't know why Lord Wanqi is passing on this humble position. We seem to have never known each other."

"Although we have never met, I have been fascinated by the general for a long time, and his name is even more familiar. Before the general broke into the formation alone, beheaded the enemy general, and drove back the enemy soldiers, I was already impressed by the general. This time, he killed Han Chang with force and suddenly joined the speed. , once word of the feat of repelling nearly ten thousand enemy troops reached Lin'an, it shocked the civil and military officials of the entire court!"

"I see."

Chen Yan looked calm.

Wan Qixi's voice suddenly dropped, and he said with profound meaning, "Even His Majesty said that this son is young and promising, and is worthy of a big job. Yue, Han and other handsome men will have successors."

The other party's intention to win over him was already on the table, how could Chen Yan not hear it.

He has already planned to get Wan Qixi to reveal the truth, and Zheng is worried about how to get close to him.

Now that the pillow is delivered by himself, of course he can't live without it.

"Anyone who joins the army doesn't want to make meritorious deeds, and even a humble position cannot be exempted from the vulgarity. Since the official family favors me, I will be grateful for your kindness in the future."

Wan Qixi came to Huaishui this time, and one of his top priorities was to take the opportunity to win over this rising star.

I was worried that this young warrior would be simple-minded and reckless, and he was from the Yue Family Army, so he would be extremely resistant to me.

But now it seems that in addition to being brave, this person is also mentally active. Since he wants to cling to him, things will be much easier to handle!

Wan Qixi was overjoyed and said, "This is natural. When the general becomes a marquis and becomes the prime minister, I will have to rely more on the general!"

"Is it possible that the holy destiny brought by Lord Wanqi this time is a reward for the humble position?"

"This... the general will naturally know when we return to the water village. General, you can rest assured that your majesty will never treat meritorious people badly."

The two looked at each other and smiled, tacit understanding.

The long team walked forward silently, and Ji Yuan and others rushed over on the way.

"Commander Ji!"

"Commander Wu!"

The two met each other and were very friendly.

"Commander Ji, General Chen has already arrived with his people. Why are you here now?"

"We were late because we found a group of bandits on the way and General Chen ordered us to pursue them. Commander Wu, have you ever been attacked by bandits on the way?"

"Ha... what are you talking about! How can any unsighted thief in the world dare to rob our Yue Family Army's car!"

"That's true."

Chen Yan secretly thought to himself that these people had planned something stupid and had unintentionally helped him.

"Sir Wanqi, the generals and officers of the army are here. I cannot stay for a long time due to my humble position, so I will take my leave for the time being."

"General Chen, please excuse me. We will have plenty of time to plan things together in the future."

Everyone was speechless all the way and hurried on. By the time the convoy arrived at the south bank of Huai River, another seven or eight hours had passed.

Late at night, the river fog was thick and the red light was eroding. Hundreds of soldiers held torches high and formed a square formation outside the south bank.

Zhang Xian and other generals had gathered here and were waiting anxiously after receiving the news from the scouts.

Niu Gao said in a deep voice: "General Zhang, the scouts reported that the grain shipped this time totaled 62 carts! Didn't I say before that a large amount of grain and grass was shipped! This discrepancy is too big!"

Dong Xian said calmly, "This is because we don't want us to stay here for a long time. General Zhang, you guessed wrong. Lin'an still has no intention of going north to counterattack."

The convoy and the other Wei troops had appeared two miles away. The leading carriage stopped first, and Wan Qixi got out of the car first and hurried southward.

"You generals have worked hard!"

Zhang Xian and other generals rushed forward at the same time.

　Wanqi is a compound surname. The author is in a cultural desert. Thank you book friend for correcting me.
