MTL - After the Fairy Disappeared-Chapter 444 old story
Chapter 444 Stories of old friends
"Isn't it?" Li Qingge had thought about it a long time ago, "If the New Year's Praise also conveys the good news to Beja, the reason is probably to kill 30,000 elites from the Yuan Kingdom. You also know the situation in the Yuan Kingdom. There are not many troops. General Zhao's 30,000 people... are really rare elites in our country." Speaking of the latter, he sighed.
The elite of the Yuan Kingdom, either on the western front against Antigen Da Sima Donghaoming, or on the northern front to defend against Xunzhou’s New Year’s Eve celebration, with little left to defend the capital.
Other than that, almost nothing.
The rest of the army's combat power was pulled down, and He Lingchuan was also deeply touched.
It is the Xiazhou Army that He Chunhua hastily pulled up within a few months, which is far behind Zhao Pan's army.
The ones killed by the year's praise were indeed the important forces of Yuan Kingdom.
"Each reported their own victories, each showed their merits." He Lingchuan smiled helplessly, "How can a big battle be a win-win situation?"
"Victory or defeat depends on the angle." Li Qingge twirled the cup a few times in his hand, "Standing on each side, there is something to win. I think the people in Xiazhou are also very happy, and they are praising your lord everywhere. Heroic and wise."
"Father's life in Dunyu should be easy now, right?"
"Isn't that so?" Li Qingge chuckled, "Director He is well-versed in government orders, and his reputation is at the top of the sky. All counties and counties will follow."
He Lingchuan leaned back slightly: "It seems that I have been worrying for so long for nothing."
"How did you survive?" Li Qingge suppressed his curiosity, "I didn't have time yesterday, so please explain it to me now!"
She and He Lingchuan are not very familiar, but they are very familiar and natural when chatting, even a bit coquettish.
What's even more rare is that instead of annoying, people are flattered.
He Lingchuan simply started from the Hanhe War, and then mentioned Zhu Erniang at the Demon Nest Swamp, what he had heard about Baoshu Kingdom, and the turmoil in the Gale Plain... until now.
Of course, some things cannot be mentioned.
It took at least two hours to talk about it, and the wine was refilled three times.
Li Qingge applauded: "Interesting and interesting, I wish I had the same experience."
"My lord has traveled all over the world, so he has more experience than me."
"There are too many trivial things, how can you live as purely as you?" Li Qingge supported his stomach with his hands, "After you go to Xushan in Lingxu City, what are your plans? Do you want to go back to Xiazhou Dunyu?"
He Lingchuan hesitated slightly: "We'll talk about it when the time comes. I always feel that this trip will not be peaceful."
He didn't mention the content of Zhu Erniang's commission, and that would definitely have an impact on Xu Shan.
He is a man who keeps his promises, and he will keep the secrets that should be kept.
Hearing what he said, Li Qingge's eyes moved slightly.
He Lingchuan still has something on his mind: "By the way, what happened to my subordinates?"
Speaking of this, Li Qingge put away his smile: "Oh, I heard that the wolf demon disappeared after the Battle of Hanhe, and it's... hard to find afterwards."
He Lingchuan waved his hand: "It's not dead."
He could feel that the fairy pet contract he signed with Lu Xin hadn't expired, so he was more worried about Lingguang before.
"By the way, your medicine ape has returned to Dunyu, and I invited him to Songyang Mansion again."
He Lingchuan was overjoyed, and solemnly toasted her a glass of wine: "Thank you for taking it in."
Li Qingge told him that during the Battle of the Han River, Lingguang had been hiding in a tree, but when the flood flooded south, it had to evacuate to the west, but it did not find where He Lingchuan was. It wasn't until the flood receded and the battle was over that it heard that He Lingchuan had been washed away by the flood.
This kind of flood is still wrapped in boundless fallen trees, and unless it is a fairy, it is impossible to survive.
Lingguang and the Xiazhou army searched the river for half a month but couldn't find He Lingchuan, so he had to return to Dunyu with the army.
But after going back, an embarrassing problem appeared: its employer had disappeared, and the employment contract was self-explanatory. The general manager's mansion doesn't need alchemists either, and the salary of fifteen taels a month is quite expensive, so there is nowhere to go for a while.
I don't know where Li Qingge heard about it, and he is about to hire him. Songyang Mansion just needs an experienced alchemist.
"This little monkey thought you were killed by it. It has been depressed for a few days, and it won't hurt anyone anymore." Li Qingge said with a smile, "Although it is in my mansion, it hasn't signed the letter of appointment."
"Want to beat me?" He Lingchuan laughed loudly, "Just relying on its little knowledge? It thinks highly of itself."
"In addition, four or five of your subordinates, Shan Youjun and others, survived and returned to Dunyu. If your whereabouts are unknown, they were merged into the general manager's office. It seems that there is also a young man named Sun."
"Only go back four or five?" Before the start of the Hanhe War, he took more than a dozen cavalry soldiers to the battlefield.
"Yes. Your subordinate Jiao Tai is gone."
He Lingchuan was silent.
He rescued Jiao Tai from Dunyu's prison, but he didn't live more than a hundred days.
Li Qingge didn't stay in Xiazhou for long, and he seemed to know everything about Dunyu: "That capable manager, Ding Zuodong, is temporarily working under Mrs. Ying."
He Lingchuan nodded, these are not unexpected. The eldest son was washed away by the flood, so bad luck and bad luck, why is it strange that He Chunhua inherits his inheritance and accepts his talents?
Li Qingge said again: "You said, the big demon Zhu Erniang gave you some spider silk she produced herself?"
"Yes." He Lingchuan's heart moved, remembering that this is the master of Songyang Mansion, the master of creation, and quickly took out the brocade and spider teeth from the storage ring.
Li Qingge picked up the brocade and looked at it carefully, and even lit a small cluster of real fire to burn it, and then sighed: "Young Master He is really amazing, all the treasures in his hands are treasures of this level."
From the broken knife to Sun Fuping's purple golden pestle, and then to the brocade made by the prehistoric great demon Zhu Erniang, the treasures that He Lingchuan brought out are beyond the reach of even the nobles of the Yuan Kingdom. Her investment in He Lingchuan seems to be more rewarding in the future. rich.
Of course He Lingchuan would not say something like "Just take it if you like" to please Pomeranians. He thought for a while, took the hook line from the sleeve arrow, and put it on the table:
"The hook rope that Master Li Fubo made for me is really useful, but I want to separate it from the sleeve arrow." Last time when the Han River fell into the water, a hook rope was missing. "Also, can we add spider silk to the rope?"
"Wrap it on me." Li Qingge agreed, "Your rope is already very strong, and if you add the big monster's spider thread, I'm afraid nothing can break it."
"That's the best." He Lingchuan took out another piece of brocade, "This one counts as a reward, how about it?"
He can't take advantage of others.
Mutual benefit, business can last long.
"It's just a little handwork, young master is really generous." Having said that, Li Qingge put away the brocade without hesitation, picked up two fangs, "This is suitable for making a pair of short knives." Naturally poisoned, it comes with a bloodletting tank .
"I'm sorry for the trouble, the master." He wanted to leave it for the avatar to use.
"At most three days." As soon as Li Qingge said this, He Lingchuan knew that her rank was at least not weaker than Li Fubo.
"Thank you sir."
"If it is not easy to use, please give feedback in time, so that we can improve."
He Lingchuan said with emotion: "I am no longer the old young master He. The Sir is so generous, but how can I repay it?"
Half of what he said was a joke, and the other half was a temptation.
In the past, the Songyang Mansion was polite to him, and it could be said that it was because of He Chunhua's face. After all, the governor of Xiazhou is a senior official, and if Songyang Mansion wants to develop in that land, it has to worship the local snake.
However, He Lingchuan is now alone in Beijia, with no power or influence. Why does Li Qingge give him so much convenience?
Snobbery is natural, and businessmen are especially profit-seeking.
He was a little wary of this woman's overtures.
Li Qingge smiled and said, "You helped me connect with Fu Shanyue, and let the prince of Chiyan owe me a big favor. It's too late for me to thank you. Doing business in Chiyan country is not as easy as Baoshu country. Let me tell you, as long as Fu Shanyue has a golden mouth, I will have a lot of money here, and the competition will be much smaller. Tell me, should I thank you?"
He Lingchuan laughed: "So I didn't take advantage of the Sir? Well, then I will be disrespectful."
"Young Master He is too far-fetched." At this point, Li Qingge covered his mouth and yawned, "Okay, I have to go on the road tomorrow, so I have to rest."
He Lingchuan stood up immediately: "Good dream, see you tomorrow then."
Li Qingge glanced at him with a smile, with a slender waist, he was the first to leave the private room.
When He Lingchuan returned to the house, he found that it was raining outside, pattering and pattering.
¥¥¥¥¥
The rain stopped at Chou Shi, and the smell of green grass and soil was everywhere.
Before dawn, blue sheep wandered out of the town and wandered to the countryside to graze.
Grass leaves with rain and dew in the morning are the best, but the plants that grow wildly in summer are not as sweet as spring. The blue sheep went to the roots of the trees to pick some mushrooms that had just broken through the ground, which were fresh and tender.
He Lingchuan would take off his riding gear for it at night and let it be free, so now it is no different from an ordinary wild goat demon.
It was eating happily, and it didn't notice that there were two pairs of eyes staring at it behind the bushes a hundred paces away, while whispering.
"Is this a passing monster?"
"certainly."
"Are you sure?" The person who asked earlier whispered, "Don't cause trouble."
"Nonsense! This is a white-patterned blue sheep, which is only found in Baoshu Kingdom. It suddenly appeared here and was alone. It must be a wandering wild monster."
"It's very close to the town, maybe it came out of the town." The man was still suspicious before, "The superiors only allow us to catch new monsters born from the emperor's ooze..."
"The superiors have given us a monthly quota." The companion interrupted him, "This month there will be an additional 30, what choice do you and I have?"
"This sheep is very handsome when caught as a mount. It's a pity to dispose of it."
"If you don't catch it, you will be dissatisfied, stop talking nonsense!"
The two men got a handful of dark red grass bundles from nowhere, and spread them evenly around the hillside.
The grass has a faint aroma, and the blue sheep moved closer to it after eating, rolled their tongues, and began to eat the red grass.
This thing is called Ganhongcao, which has a little hallucinogenic effect, which can make the eater happier and more addicted, and finally become a fairy without knowing where he is. It is also called Sheep Deer Happy Grass.
