The military leader held an unsheathed knife, holding it in his hand as a stick. He raised it in the air and picked at Li Junchen's cloak and hat.
He squinted his eyes, as sharp as a knife, and looked at Lu Youjing through Li Junchen in front of him.
Lu Youjing was also wearing a black cloak, and the big hat on his head covered most of his face.
He stood two steps behind Li Junchen and watched the military leader sizing him up without saying a word. At the same time, several soldiers around him looked at him unkindly and looked over involuntarily.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Lu Youjing laughed loudly.
He stretched out his hand and pulled the hat on his head, revealing his handsome face. He looked at everyone and said cheerfully: "Fellow military lords, don't be nervous. We brothers are not bad people."
Lu Youjing pointed at his face and motioned for everyone to take a closer look at his face. He looked majestic and did not look like a bad person!
"These two young men look like they don't look like bad people." A military man behind Juntou nodded and whispered to his companions.
Another person also nodded and said: "These two people are indeed good-looking. The young man in front of us held a knife on his head and pointed it at his face. The other person's eyes were firm and he stood there unmoved. He looked very much like us. People from the West.
As for another young man who was slightly older, his smile was a bit refreshing, but the flesh at the corners of his mouth was slightly stiff and unnatural.
He is not as open-minded as us people from the Western Region, and he is very flattering, but looking at the clarity in his eyes, he does not look like a bad person. "
The military man glanced at his companions who were much thinner than him, with a hint of respect. He said with admiration: "Brother Wang, you are worthy of being a person who has participated in the imperial examination of Dayu. The words that come out of your mouth are fucking better." I sound much better."
"Alas, I was just a scholar back then, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning." The man called Brother Wang waved his hands repeatedly, with a hint of loneliness in his eyes.
If Dayu hadn't perished, how could he, a scholar, pick up a horse-drawn sword and join the army.
However, his luck was not very good. After the wars, he always failed to achieve any major military merits due to various reasons. If he hadn't been literate, he would have been a somewhat inspiring person. After all, his brothers Promote yourself, and you will be able to become a good leader at the gate of the city.
Among a group of fighting men, a scholar appeared. He was approachable and naturally popular.
The number of gatekeepers in Wangjing City is no better than that of other cities. In this city, one hundred thousand old troops have retreated, including some old centurions and thousands captains, and even some who have been fighting for their entire lives. Partial general.
There are only so many military positions in a city, which is really a carrot and a pit.
Even a casual patrolling soldier in the city is an old killer who retired from the ranks of captain and corps commander.
It can be seen that the length and weight of his city gate are heavy.
The military leader put away the knife in his hand, stared at Lu Youjing, then glanced at Li Junchen, and said calmly: "Today is the beginning of the year. Don't disturb the people in the city."
He then said in a cold voice: "Wangjing City is not like any other city. If something happens, you will be responsible for the consequences."
The words were full of warning, and also contained a strong murderous intent.
Li Junchen and Lu Youjing nodded slightly at the same time without speaking.
Upon seeing this, the military leader saw that the two of them were quite honest, so he stepped out of the way and waved behind him at the same time.
Everyone retreated to make way.
"Thank you!"
Li Junchen cupped his fists and said politely to everyone.
Lu Youjing's eyes shone when he saw the iron-blooded aura emanating from everyone. He smiled politely at everyone, then followed Li Junchen's footsteps and walked into the city.
Not long after Li Junchen and Lu Youjing left.
Two more uninvited guests came to the city gate.
One is tall and one is short, one is fat and one is thin.
The two of them were wearing loose black uniforms and hats on their heads. They were dusty and had a lot of mud on their trouser legs.
When the two walked to the city gate, the short and thin man in a bamboo hat took out a golden bean the size of a thumb from his arms and threw it towards the military man at the city gate.
In fact, few people come to the city during the Chinese New Year, most of the time, so the soldiers at the city gate set up a pot and a shed under the wall on one side.
At the city gate, there were different people watching from the side.
There was generally no big movement. The soldiers eating hot hotpot under the shed only glanced at the city gate from time to time, picked up their chopsticks, put the fragrant pork in the big pot, and brought it to their mouths. go.
Then everyone talked about their awesome things in those years.
The military man watching at the gate of the city took the golden beans, nodded slightly to the two of them, put the golden beans in front of his eyes, and started rubbing them with his big yellow teeth.
The man in the bamboo hat looked at the other party and motioned for him to come in. He didn't say much, but quickly disappeared at the city gate.
"The errand at the city gate is really not bad, just for a moment, hehe..."
As long as it is not a caravan, this kind of independent income can be put into one's own pocket. If it is silver pieces as small as a thumb, the military man will not be very happy, but this gold is different.
······
After Li Junchen and Lu Youjing entered the city, they walked around and looked at the shops on the roadside.
"Today is the beginning of the year, what a pity."
Lu Youjing smacked his lips and said.
As they walked along, the city was very quiet. There were very few pedestrians walking on the road, and they could only meet a few here and there. There were not many shops on both sides of the road open.
Li Junchen looked at the shop on one side. It was a candy shop. The door of the shop was only open on one side. Inside, there was a woman holding her chin, sitting on a desk and dozing off.
He retracted his gaze, frowned and said to Lu Youjing, who was looking around, "Did we forget something very important?"
"whats the matter?"
Lu Youjing looked at Li Junchen's solemn face and asked in confusion.
What can they forget? What the ancestor said was not to go to Zhongzhou, to the holy land of rivers and lakes, to get something?
But it's not urgent.
Could it be that he forgot to leave Chen Tianwen on the mountain, but wasn't he left behind by his ancestor?
Lu Youjing seemed to have thought of something, and said with a wicked smile: "You don't mean to say that you forgot that girl Fengyue on the mountain? You really are, we two are going to travel the world and save the world, so How can you treat a little girl with important things..."
Li Junchen stared at Lu Youjing expressionlessly.
He said without anger: "Brother Lu, Mr. Lu, can you think of women whenever you think about things? I'm very scared of you!"
Li Junchen suddenly remembered that the killer woman he met on the way to the capital almost killed him, but fortunately he was always on guard against her.
He suddenly looked at Lu Youjing.
"what?"
Lu Youjing saw Li Junchen startled and took half a step back, looking wary of the other person.
Over the years, he has been attacked by Li Junchen frequently.
The other party is simply despicable. As long as he wants to beat himself up, he never competes with him in an honest and upright manner. Instead, he takes advantage of himself when he is unprepared, and then gives himself such a blow, waiting for you to come to your senses. Just ran away.
"I think you will die of a woman sooner or later."
Li Junchen's serious look made Lu Youjing's heart skip a beat.
Without waiting for him to ask more questions.
Li Junchen said again: "When I came to Wangjing City, I wanted to go to my father first and ask some questions. I always felt that what the ancestor said was cloudy and misty. I thought about what he said. When I think about it carefully, it seems like something Didn’t say anything.”
Lu Youjing nodded and said, "Li Qing, King of the Western Region!"
Lu Youjing has been hearing about this kind of character since he was a child, and he is even more familiar with the various battles Li Qing has commanded.
Among the three kings with different surnames, Dunlin is the one he admires the most.
It was not his father who guarded the Beixiang border and had a large number of troops, nor was he Chen Tianwen's uncle who knew all the plans and was the number one counselor in Dunlin.
It was Li Junchen's father, the Western King Li Qing who single-handedly flew down the capital's gate tower and frightened the might of Akhara's army.
He looked at Li Junchen and said eagerly: "You and I have been brothers for a long time. As your brother, when I see your father, you have to stand aside and say a few more good words about me.
Although I also know that I am very good, it is not good to say this kind of thing to myself, otherwise it will leave a bad impression in your father's mind, and it will appear that I am very Meng Lang. "
