Chapter 429: Friendship is priceless
It is said that with the encouragement of Diao Chan, Gongsun Baoyue finally plucked up the courage to confess her love and asked Chen Long with tears in her eyes: "After so many things happened, you still only regard me as your sister?"
Chen Long's heart has long since melted. His time travel has meant dancing on the edge of life and death, and he never wants to make any beauties from the Three Kingdoms sad. Baoyue fell in love with him, how could he be indifferent to Baoyue? It's just that it prevents Gongsun Zan from discussing friendship with his peers. I don't know what the consequences will be.
In Chen Long's heart, he missed his lover from his previous life, the young, fit and energetic Liu Qian. God's fate caused a pair of lovers to travel through two time and space, and they became two generations when they met again. Now that Liu Qian is too old to follow Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying to Danjiangkou to meet her, she may not have much time left. No matter how strong you are, what should you do with the lives that are about to pass away?
Chen Long took all his lovely wives and concubines with him and arrived in Xiangyang, the administrative center of the Qinglong Army's territory, a few days later. After several years of hard work by Jiang Wan, Chen Qun and others, the city of Xiangyang was strong, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and everything was restored, attracting a large number of talents. Especially for trade on the river, the functions of the ports have been greatly upgraded, and Xiangyang and Fancheng on both sides of the Han River have become prosperous towns. Jiangxia County, where the Han River and the Yangtze River meet, has become a thoroughfare for many counties. Huang Zhong stationed Hanyang New City here, and reached a wonderful balance with the forces of Huang Zu's Queyue City and Sun Ce's Lushan City. Each of them made their own money. The interests of the people maintain the peace of Jiangxia Sanjianghui.
On the first day when Chen Long arrived in Xiangyang, before sunset, he came to Liu Qian's residence hidden in the backyard of Qiulin Garden by the Han River. Qiulin Garden covers a large area. Liu Qian, Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying have been living in a compound by the Han River. They have their own independent boat dock and are closely guarded by special forces and guards.
Chen Long took Bu Zhi Bu Zi Shan, who is now the commander-in-chief of the Xiangyang City Defense Army, and Zhu Huan and Zhu Xiumu, the new first deputy commander of the Qinglong Navy, through the carefully decorated gardens and the ingenious rockery scenery, which was clear and clear. The small pool at the bottom, the corridor of the mountain house with carved beams and painted buildings, and the hidden path in a bamboo forest.
Some secret whistles appeared vaguely in the bamboo forest, and then a group of patrols appeared. When they saw the bird of prey, they all saluted quickly. Suddenly, they saw the bird of prey following closely behind a tall young man. Knowing that the lord had arrived, he quickly knelt down and saluted.
Chen Long knew that Bu Zhi was a good general and it was inevitable to run the army rigorously. He called Bu Zhi with his hand and said: "You should know that I have never advocated the ceremony of kneeling and worshiping, especially in the army. Only military salutes are performed between superior and subordinate officers. "Bu Zhi smiled slightly awkwardly, and gave a few instructions to his men before following him. He gradually understood what kind of temper his lord was.
Bu Zhi was like this, and Zhu Huan felt the same way. The two of them guarded the lord on the left and the right, feeling the momentum that would one day dominate the world.
Arriving at a ritual gate, Chen Long walked straight in. Bu Zhi and Zhu Huan, two young and handsome figures, both with swords hanging from their waists and standing tall, were guarding the door on one left and right. They became the two Hengha door gods guarding Qiulin Garden.
When Chen Long was admitted to the hospital, he saw a head full of white hair at first glance. Under the white hair, Liu Qian's face when she was young could be vaguely seen, but she had deep wrinkles, sagging skin, sunken eye sockets, thin cheeks, and a green bamboo stick in her hand. , standing there tremblingly, with Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying, who had been nurtured by her on both sides, holding her sleeves and watching Chen Long walk up to her with a complicated expression.
Chen Long really wanted to hug Liu Qian into his arms immediately, but there were two smartest young people in the world beside him, so he had to resist the impulse and bowed and said: "Mother-in-law."
Liu Qian forced a smile on her face. She hadn't seen Chen Long for a long time, and her heart was filled with joy. However, she was too old and didn't even have the strength to express her joy. Liu Qian pointed to the seat next to her with her cane, motioning for him to sit next to her, and said to Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying: "Liang'er, Yueying, you don't have to stay here, just go and do your business. Your master and I have something to do." Talk and tell the door that no one is allowed in."
The two boys bowed obediently and left. Before leaving, Zhuge Liang glanced at Chen Long. That look shocked Chen Long. This boy actually had a suspicion about Liu Qian's actions. The problem was that he was too young and was not good at hiding it. This is such a smart head, and I must direct him to use it on the right path.
After Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying left, the first thing that came was an awkward silence. After a while, Chen Long smiled and said: "Zhuge and Yueying have grown up. They are childhood sweethearts. It's time for them to get married, right?"
Liu Qian was silent, and suddenly tears fell from the corners of her aging eyes, and she said: "Brother Long, I am seventy-eight years old this year. My health is not as good as it used to be, and I am on the verge of death. My only wish is to see these two children get married. .”
When Chen Long heard him call him Brother Long, he recalled the scene when the two of them were in love with each other when they were young, and he said sadly: "Qian'er, I didn't expect that this other world has given us such a destiny. It's still hard for me to accept it, but I never wanted to admit that that was the end.”
Liu Qian smiled and shook her head and said: "Brother Long, my wish in this life has been fulfilled. Everything is destined to be fulfilled by God. With Wolong's help, it is easy to unify the three countries, and you can guide the political system towards true democracy and justice. What you have to do is There are still many things, but the impact is far-reaching, enough to make China the most powerful country in the world. Brother Long, do what you should do! Don't think about me."
These words were affectionate and meaningful. The blood in Chen Long's heart was ignited fiercely, and he said painfully: "Qian'er, you are wrong. All my wishes are fulfilled with you. I can't live without you, and I won't lose it." Get off you."
"I have always had a plan in my heart to make you rejuvenate and join hands with me to conquer the world! Qian'er, you must persist until that moment!"
Liu Qian smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Long, I believe you. But I really don't have much time. I have traveled here for more than 40 years. I don't know if I can persist until the day you come up with a solution. Besides, , you and I both know that there is no way at all, right? Unless we have to do it all over again! But that time and space machine, that Director Qi Jin, and all the scientific research results have been wiped out! Brother Long, Qian'er has already accepted her fate!"
When Chen Long heard the end, he knew that Liu Qian had already given up. He couldn't help but feel suffocated. Is there really nothing that can be done about this damn time machine?
Chen Long chewed Liu Qian's words over and over, and suddenly stood up and said: "Yes, unless we do it all over again! We know how many years have passed in the past, but we don't know how many years have passed in the future world! Maybe they have invented a new generation of machines long ago , can connect us back to the future!”
Liu Qian was shocked when she heard this, then felt overjoyed when she thought about it carefully, and finally felt very sad. Surprisingly, I never thought about leaving Chen Long and traveling back to the future. Fortunately, this is indeed a possible way to rejuvenate my youth. Sadly, no matter whether I try successfully or not, I will almost always be separated from Chen Long and travel back to the future accurately. Probably even more so. The mixture of sorrow, joy and surprise at this moment made Liu Qian's old heart unbearable for a moment, her blood boiled up, her vision went dark and she fainted.
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
