little turtle in pocket

Chapter 44

Ninety-five years.

The rustling autumn wind blows up the fallen leaves, and the Lili Plain is golden, with an intoxicating beauty in the chill.

In this beautiful autumn landscape, someone is chattering about the disastrous scenery: "------Let me tell you, master, this dream is weird. Your little black-eyed white rabbit has turned into a big one!" The rabbit spirit is scary, my god, my legs are so frightened, the rabbit spirit is still chasing me—"

Listening and listening, Fang Kexu finally couldn't bear it anymore, put his hand on the hilt of the saber at his waist, and stared with round eyes: "You say you are a rabbit, what do you keep looking at me for?"

Zheng Zhi shrank his neck and said in a low voice: "You are more fierce than a rabbit spirit!"

With a sound of "choking", the sword finally came out of its sheath, and pointed at the Taoist leader who had committed tongue crimes: "I think you are impatient!"

The head of the corridor who had been leading the way turned a deaf ear to the noise of the two of them, but stopped at this moment and said: "Keep down, we've reached the place."

"Where have you been?"

The two people asked at the same time, and the unreliable Taoist leader was glared at by the rabbit again.

There is a golden pond in front, surrounded by water grass and reeds, and the wind blows thousands of reed flowers, which is an intoxicating beauty in the sunset.

By the pond, a black figure sat alone, motionless with a fishing rod in his hand.

The corridor leader caught up a few steps, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Dou, how have you been?"

The fisherman turned his head, with a round face with kind eyebrows and kind eyes: "There is no outsider here, so the Taoist priest can call me Dongguan." He looked up at the two young men beside him, "General Fang must have You already know my true identity."

Ke Xu let out a dry cough in embarrassment, not knowing what to say, so he didn't say anything after thinking about it.

"That's right, brother Dongguan." The Taoist seemed very anxious, and directly brought the topic to the point, "King Liang personally led the army to attack Tanran, and you should know about the fact that their king's camp is already captured."

Shen Dongguan, the head of Yelu's secret service in the capital city of Liang State, and Shen Dongguan, who used to be an innkeeper as a cover, nodded solemnly.

The corridor gave a long sigh: "Now the King of Liang is forcing them to hand over the General Wen who disappeared some time ago, or they will slaughter the clan."

Shen Dongguan's eyelids twitched, but he didn't say anything.

"Xiaodao can't watch tens of thousands of innocent people die in vain, even if he wants to feel sorry for one person, he can't care about it."

Compared with the Taoist gnashing his teeth, the shopkeeper's expression was indifferent: "There is nothing to be sorry for, and it shouldn't be bad for him to return to King Liang."

The Taoist smiled wryly: "I hope it's as you said, it's just—"

"It's just that King Liang is already possessed in the way of love. I'm afraid that General Xiaowen will end up badly when he returns."

The chief of the corridor interjected in exchange for General Xiao Fang's another roll of eyes: "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!" Turning to the chief of the corridor, he asked, "You know where Xiao Nuo is, why didn't you explain the situation to King Liang?"

The shopkeeper smiled: "Why do you say that? When the tannin is gone, we Yelu can sit back and relax on the grassland. For this matter, I really have to thank you, General Xiaowen. If it wasn't for him, King Liang wouldn't be so quick. Just send troops."

Ke continued to choke, and shook his head with a sneer: "Where is he?"

The shopkeeper stood up and pointed towards the northeast corner: "Over there, with Mr. Lin."

"Lin Zhi'an? Has he voted for you?" Zheng Daochang was shocked.

Shen Dongguan smiled complacently: "He has half of our Yelu blood, otherwise Mr. Yuyue would not have been fooled by him. Finally, Mr. Yu is willing to come back to take the blame and make meritorious deeds, which is naturally a good thing."

Kexu has already rushed towards the direction he pointed.

Standing under a pitch pine tree was a tall young man with an angry puffy face, and behind his straight figure he looked like a javelin.

With his back arched upside down, Wen Nuo tiptoed to his side, and lightly poked his back.

Zhi'an flicked his sleeves and ignored him.

General Xiaowen poked him again: "Hey, are you really angry? Cheapskate, I can't afford to lose like this!"

"What do you mean you can't afford to lose? It's obvious that you are playing tricks!" Master Lin turned around angrily, and grabbed the opponent's wrist, "If you have the guts, do it again!"

Wen Nuo smiled toothlessly: "Just compare, and you will lose if you compare a hundred times!"

"You!" Lin Zhi'an was so angry that he turned his head and found a strange movement in the reeds next to him, "Who is it? Come out for me!"

Which green onion is this Lin?Xiao Nuo is actually more relaxed and childlike in front of him than with me.The sustainable acid water flooded, hesitating and not moving.

Daoist Zheng, on the other hand, exclaimed bluntly: "This court is about to turn the world upside down, General Xiaowen, you are so excited, you are still hiding here to compare arrows with others!"

Zhi'an's face sank: "Honestly, let's figure it out, you don't have to worry about Xiao Nuo's affairs!"

Can continue to take a step forward: "If he doesn't care, can I also?"

Hearing that familiar voice, Wen Nuo Teng blushed, subconsciously dodged behind Zhi'an, and then reacted suddenly, wishing he could slap himself.What kind of shame is this?It's not true that he had any abnormal relationship with Kexu.

However, Ke Xu continued to ask: "Xiao Nuo, as long as you say a word today, I will never take care of your business from now on."

"what-------"

Wen Nuo was hesitating to speak, when suddenly another person emerged from the reeds.Just now everyone had their own concerns, but they didn't find any signs.

The visitor said in a haughty tone, "In this world, I am the most qualified person to say this."

If the appearance of Cai Kexuan just now was a blow to the head, the surprise attack of this man now is simply thunderous, enough to crush Wen Nuo to pieces.

Kexu was also taken aback, and hurriedly saluted: "My lord!"

"No!" Cheng Shen replied coldly, raised his hand slightly, but kept his eyes fixed on Wen Nuo, "You --- good you Wen Nuo, you made me suffer so much!"

Wen Nuo was quietly moving in small steps, trying to leave before being discovered, so he had no choice but to freeze his body and stay where he was, looking up at the person who accused him.

This kid is really strange, he is obviously not doing anything, but there are always thousands of thoughts in his eyes, so that people will really think he is a villain.But having said that, His Majesty Liang Wang has lost a lot of weight recently, and his face is a little haggard. It is hard to say that it has nothing to do with General Xiaowen.

The corridor leader thought about it, stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, are you all right?"

His Majesty is obviously ill, and his breath is not evenly distributed: "The Taoist priest is a master outside the world, why is he taking care of this worldly affairs?"

The expert showed a mysterious smile: "Everything is predestined, and the poor can't stay out of it."

Cheng Shen stared at him, obviously not understanding why this Taoist priest who usually only cares about raising rare animals and animals suddenly became so persistent: "What do you mean?"

The corridor leader approached King Liang and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty wants to bring General Xiaowen back to the palace?"

"Of course!" Cheng Shen felt that the other party was asking too much.

The Taoist priest smiled slightly and said, "Do you think he would be willing to go back with you?"

Cheng Shen was stunned, and followed the direction the Taoist priest was looking at, and saw Wen Nuo half biting his lower lip and drooping eyelashes, thinking about something, his stomach tightened, and he cursed inwardly: This evildoer!I've been in his hands for the rest of my life!

"It's better," said the corridor chief unhurriedly, "Let General Xiaowen stay with me in the temple for a while. If His Majesty has any inquiries, just come to the temple to find him."

Hearing the Taoist priest's suggestion, Cheng Shen frowned and did not answer.

In the silence, Kexu couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, just agree."

"Speak up!" King Liang's voice was very restrained, but he could still hear the hidden anger, "I haven't settled with you for cheating your death and cheating the king!"

General Xiao Fang trembled slightly, and remained silent like a cicada.On the contrary, Zheng Zhi was courageous enough, and replied: "If he didn't pretend to die, he would really be turned into a pile of loess now."

Cheng Shen was polite to Taoist Zheng, and said slowly: "I know, I will investigate this matter slowly. But you master and apprentice did these things without telling me, and now you dare to ask me for someone in person—" Said, while slowly scanning everyone present.

At this moment, King Liang looked like a ferocious beast with a calm appearance, and his whole body exuded a dangerous aura that strangers should not get close to.

The corridor leader turned a blind eye to it, and still treated the tiger like a kitten without caring: "Maybe you might as well listen to General Xiaowen's own opinion, how about it?"

After a while, Wen Nuo, who was concentrating on peeling his fingers, realized that the silence in the audience was waiting for him to express his opinion. He coughed in a panic, straightened his back, put on a mature and steady look as usual, and said, "I'm going to live in Guanli. .”

"Xiao Nuo --------"

Zhi'an called softly, in exchange for King Liang's murderous look.

The corner of Wen Nuo's mouth twitched, and he smiled, "Go back to Yelu. The grassland is so big, you can always find another flower you like."

He was referring to the candidate to replace Na Siri, but Cheng Shen, who was full of jealousy, completely misunderstood: "Lin Zhian, I have already eradicated Soada for you, and the goal you have worked so hard to achieve has been achieved. You don’t need to show up in our Daliang country!”

The outrageous order did not specify the reason, making it impossible to explain.Wen Nuo smiled wryly and bowed his head silently.I don't know why, but he seems to be particularly prone to such inexplicable misunderstood situations that he doesn't even have a chance to explain.

Shen Dongguan, who had been silent for a long time, said with a dry smile: "That's natural, that's natural. Master Lin will stay in Yelu quietly. Your country and our country have always had good relations, and our country will definitely cooperate with all our strength to smooth out the tanning for your army." Help me out."

Cheng Shen replied coldly: "Thank you, there's no need. Next time, don't use my Daliang army as a gunman again."

Shopkeeper Shen's round face was covered with beads of sweat, and he forced a smile and said, "Yes, I will never dare next time." He squinted at Lin Zhi'an, "Quickly apologize to King Liang!"

Zhi'an looked at Wen Nuo, but couldn't see what the man was thinking, sighed secretly, and bowed to King Liang: "I have a deep hatred with Suoa, and I came up with such a bad plan because I had no other way out. Please forgive me, King Liang."

He turned his head and wanted to say something to Wen Nuo, but was stopped by shopkeeper Shen: "His Majesty the King of Liang is generous, and I will leave now if you don't bother me." left.

Cheng Shen looked at the backs of them leaving for a long time, and snorted: "It's cheap for you!" Turning his head to look at Wen Nuo, he said firmly, "Have a good rest, I will go to see you in Guanli tomorrow."

Wen Nuo's eyelashes were still drooping, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.

Liang Wang didn't care about his attitude, and turned to Ke Xu: "General Fang, I might as well live in Guanli."

"Ah?" Kexu hurried up a few steps and followed Cheng Shen.

"Before you go back home, there is something I must tell you." Cheng Shen looked at the young general's boyish face, "Your wife disappeared on the night of your accident, and there is no news until now."

Ke Xu's eyes widened: "Really?"

Cheng Shen frowned impatiently: "I am the king of a country, why did I lie to you?"

"Uh, that's not what I meant, I—"

When he was about to explain, King Liang waved his hand and strode forward surrounded by his attendants, without turning his head, he said: "The corridor leader, take care of Xiao Nuo."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty." The corridor chief smiled.

There was a rustling sound in the reed bushes, and only the Taoist master and disciple and Wen Nuo stood still.

The little Taoist sighed: "Step by step, everyone is heading towards his destiny, my husband!"

The corridor leader who was twirling his beard looked at him in surprise: "Zheng Zhi, after all these years, my teacher doesn't even know that you are a poet!"
