"Master Hou really thinks that my cultivation is useless?" Fang Zhengzheng glanced at the serious expression on Chi Hou's face, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile.
"Isn't it... no?" Chihou paused while holding the tea cup, and stared closely at Fang Zhengyi in front of him, with a faint light clearly flashing in his eyes.
Because, he suddenly thought of a possibility. Although it was very possible that Fang Zheng had lost all his cultivation after the battle with the setting sun, it had never been confirmed.
So…
In other words, it is possible for Fang Zhengzheng’s cultivation to exist!
When he thought of this, his body was slightly shaken.
Is your cultivation still there
For a person who was able to fight alone with the Demon Saint Setting Sun more than a year ago, if his cultivation is really still there, to what extent will he grow in a year
fear!
Chi Hou can only use this word to describe him. Of course, there is another even more terrifying thing, that is, Fang Zhengzheng is not over eighteen years old now.
Under 18 years of age.
Ssangyong tops the list, a stunning genius!
"Haha, I'm just kidding, Chi Hou doesn't really believe it, right?" Fang Zhengzheng smiled softly, then picked up the short knife in front of him and started cutting the roasted mountain beast on the fire rack.
He cut very slowly, because the skin of the mountain beast was tough, and it even seemed a little difficult. The most important thing was that he did not use any force from beginning to end, and just used the knife to cut off a piece of the barbecue very carefully.
Then, he put it into the bowl that had been prepared and handed it to Chi Hou.
"Master Hou, try it?"
"Okay, I heard from Gu Yan a long time ago that your barbecue tastes unique, so you're welcome!" Chi Hou nodded and retracted his gaze from Fang Zhengzheng's hands. The chopsticks in his hands moved, and his expression looked like He seemed a little excited, which also caused the roast meat that had just been picked up in the bowl to shake and fall off the chopsticks accidentally.
Falling directly towards the ground.
At the same time, Chi Hou's eyes were fixed on Fang Zhengzheng's hands.
Fang Zhengzheng moved his hands.
The moment the piece of barbecue fell, it moved. The short knife in his hand stabbed directly at the barbecue that fell in the air. The movement looked like flowing water.
Chi Hou's eyes flashed and he flicked his fingers.
"Ding!" The short knife finally stabbed the barbecue, but as if it encountered a resistance, it made an extremely clear sound.
Next...
The barbecue fell to the ground with a "snap" and was stained with dust.
Fang Zhengzheng looked at the barbecue on the ground and shook his head. A trace of pity flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say much. He picked up the short knife again and cut out a new piece of barbecue and handed it over.
Chi Hou looked at the roasted meat that was handed over again, and said nothing. He just picked up the roasted meat with chopsticks again, but this time he did not drop it, but put the roasted meat firmly into his mouth.
One bite.
Mouth full of fragrance.
"Hahaha... Gu Yan really didn't lie to me. This barbecue is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It really tastes great!" After thinking about it for a moment, Chi Hou finally laughed.
"It's a pity that such a good piece of barbecue was wasted." Fang Zhengzheng looked at the dusty barbecue on the ground and shook his head gently.
"Waste?" Chihou looked at the barbecue on the ground, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then laughed again: "When I was fighting against the Northern Barbarians, let alone the barbecue that fell on the ground, even if it was the grass roots in the soil, I’ve eaten all the bark off the trees, so what does a little bit of dust mean?”
While Chi Hou was speaking, his hand moved slightly.
Immediately, the barbecue that fell on the ground was on his chopsticks, and then he put it into his mouth without hesitation, without even slapping the barbecue.
Fang Zhengzheng did not stop Chi Hou's movements. He just cut off another piece of barbecue, put it in his mouth, and chewed it.
"Actually, the two of us can't finish so much barbecue, so if a piece falls on the ground, it's not a waste." Fang Zhengzheng explained.
"You brat, stop talking nonsense with me. When are you going to Beijing?" This time, Chi Hou did not wait for Fang Zhengzheng to help him cut the meat, and directly started to tear up the barbecue on the fire rack.
"If Mr. Hou is in a hurry, you can leave first."
"Leave first? Brat, what you said... I don't understand." When Chi Hou heard this, his hand holding the barbecue stopped in mid-air.
"I don't plan to go to Beijing with Mr. Hou." Fang Zhengzheng said directly.
"Aren't you going to the capital with me? However, as far as I know, the prince's people are already on the way. Without my escort, it would be difficult for you to enter Yanjing City safely with just the few people around you!" Chi Hou said with certainty.
"It is difficult to enter the capital safely, but I don't intend to submit to Prince Duan, so how can I ask the Marquis to personally escort me?" Fang Zhengzheng nodded, and then looked confused.
"You... brat, besides the prince, there is Prince Duan in the court now. If you don't choose Prince Duan, why should you choose the prince?" Chihou's expression changed.
"Can I choose no one?" Fang Zheng asked rhetorically.
"no!"
"Well, since Mr. Hou is so domineering, I have a condition." Fang Zhengzheng looked at Chi Hou's majestic look and waved his hand casually.
"I know you have a condition. Tell me, do you want money or treasures? As long as I can do it, I will definitely do it for you." Chihou was relieved after hearing this.
Based on his understanding of Fang Zhengzheng, if he didn't take advantage of this opportunity to knock something out, he really couldn't believe that Fang Zhengzheng was sincerely following King Duan.
"Let Chi Guyan come over and be a bed-warming girl for me." Fang Zhengzheng said casually.
"What?! Brat, you...impossible! Let alone the bed-warming girl, you don't have to think about Guyan's marriage to you. She has no control over her affairs. Let's just bypass this matter and tell you Ask for something else!”
Even Chi Hou, the dignified God of the Northern Desert, almost dropped the barbecue in his hand when he heard Fang Zhengzheng's request.
"No more." When Fang Zhengzheng heard Chi Hou's refusal, he immediately shook his head with disappointment.
"Fang Zhengzheng, I am the first-rank military commander of the Great Xia Dynasty. After hearing the news that you were in Beishan Village, I traveled for two days and nights to personally lead my army to come to Beishan Village to find you, a wanted prisoner of the dynasty. With your attitude and face, I've given you enough, don't go too far!" Chi Hou finally got a little angry.
"Master Hou is going to fall out?" Fang Zhengzheng looked at Chi Hou's flushed face, his expression seemed somewhat panicked.
"Sigh... When I met you for the first time in Shenhou Mansion, although it was not pleasant, I didn't feel disgusted at all. Moreover, you did so much for Daxia in the battle of the Southern Territory, both in public and private matters. , I don’t want you to seek your own death!” Chi Hou glanced at Fang Zhengzheng’s appearance, finally shook his head and sighed.
"I chose the road myself, and naturally I will walk it myself. I want Chi Guyan to be my bed-warming girl, but Master Hou can't do it, so I have to do it myself." Fang Zhengzheng nodded. Nodding, he sat up straight again.
"You mean, you can let Guyan be your bed-warming girl?" When Chi Hou heard this, he was slightly startled, and then a strange look appeared on his face.
"Yeah." Fang Zhengzheng nodded again.
"You brat, you speak too loudly, you can easily bite your tongue!" Chi Hou narrowed his eyes slightly, and his body naturally showed the majesty of a superior.
"Three months, three months later, I will let her tell me in front of the whole world that she will be my bed-warming girl!" Fang Zhengzheng said with a relaxed expression.
"You brat, are you serious?" Chi Hou's eyes suddenly opened.
"certainly!"
"What if I can't do it?"
"Then I will follow the wishes of the Marquis and hang out in the court for three to five years before returning to my current position of third-rank minister." Fang Zhengzheng waved his hand.
"Okay, I will wait for you for three months!"
"What if I did it?"
"Hahaha... Then I will be your follower and follow your arrangements!" Chi Hou smiled with contempt on his face.
"Listen to my arrangements? If I ask Mr. Hou to rebel, will you also listen to me?"
"You are so outrageous. How can you say such treacherous words?"
"Haha... Mr. Hou really can't take a joke."
"You brat, if you can really let Guyan be your bed-warmer, I will never frown on anything other than treason and other things that violate loyalty and integrity!" Chihou didn't talk nonsense anymore.
"It's a deal!"
"Okay, within three months, I will keep you safe, but if after three months, you regret it and play tricks on me, I will never show mercy."
"Then thank you Lord Hou." Fang Zhengzheng nodded.
"Well, now that everything has been said, when do you plan to come to Beijing?"
"Hurry, I will naturally go to Beijing when a friend arrives."
"friend?"
"Master Hou, you don't really think that I roasted such a big mountain beast just to feed you and me, right?" Fang Zhengzheng looked at the oily mountain beast on the fire rack in front of him and turned away. Pout.
"Oh? I heard that the head of the Shadow Sect is a woman. I only heard rumors at this time, but I haven't really seen her in person. I might as well meet her today." When Chihou heard this, he quickly reacted.
"Haha..." Fang Zhengzheng smiled and didn't say much.
At this time, two figures appeared not far away, and they were extremely fast. The most important thing was that the two figures were constantly exchanging blows while running.
The sword light flashed and the gun shadows were heavy.
A strong chill and a bit of blue light intertwined together, and dust rolled wherever they passed, like two hungry wolves fighting.
It was none other than Li Jingfeng, the current superintendent of Qingyi and Red Feather Guards.
Chi Hou frowned slightly. Of course he would not believe that Li Jingfeng would fight Qingyi for no reason. Li Jingfeng was a soldier.
It is the duty of soldiers to obey orders.
Then, some quarrels or conflicts would not affect Li Jingfeng's behavior, nor would he be allowed to disobey Chi Hou's order and enter the village without authorization.
In this case, there is only one possibility.
There was a very urgent matter, and it was something that Li Jingfeng did not dare to make the decision without authorization.
"What's the matter?" Chi Hou waved his arm lightly, and immediately, a breath like a thin wing flew out, directly between Li Jingfeng and Qing Yi.
Stop the sword, stop the gun!
"Your Majesty, a group of troops was found two miles away. According to reports, the number is about three thousand. They are very fast and neatly arranged. They should be an extremely well-trained army. They are now heading towards Beishan Village!"
"Army? Or a well-trained army? Has the identity been verified clearly?" Chi Hou was slightly stunned.
This is the Northern Desert. If there is an army in the Northern Desert, and it is a well-trained army, will there be another person besides him, Chihou
"No, all the visitors are masked, and their armor is also covered by a black cloak. Their aura is very fierce. It's impossible to judge their true identity just from their appearance!"
"The aura is fierce? Is it possible that he is a Northern Barbarian Wolf Rider?"
"Probably not. The aura of this team is indeed somewhat similar to that of the Northern Barbarian Wolf Riders, but the training of the Northern Barbarian Wolf Riders should not be to this extent. According to reports, this team of people march faster than our Red Feather Guards. Fast, and they can still form a uniform formation at such a fast marching speed. My subordinates boldly guessed that the strength of the three thousand people who came over should not be weaker than the Red Feather Guards!" Li Jingfeng shook his head and said very Report all the detective reports quickly.
"Not weaker than the Red Feather Guard?" When Chi Hou heard this, his expression finally changed.
He still trusts Li Jingfeng's judgment. However, there are only a few armies in the entire Daxia Dynasty that dare to say that their strength is not weaker than that of the Red Feather Guards. The Poshan Army in Zhenguofu is considered one, and the next ten are There are also some direct armies of the three prefectures.
Then there are some huge aristocratic families.
But…
It shouldn't be possible for these armies to enter the Northern Desert, right
who is it? Zhenguofu
impossible.
Chihou quickly rejected this idea. Logically speaking, given the friendship between Zhenguo Mansion and Fang Zhengyi in the Southern Territory, he was indeed the most likely to lead the army into Beishan Village to find Fang Zhengyi.
However, it is also the most impossible.
Because Xing Yuanguo is a principled person, if Xing Yuanguo really wants to lead his army into the Northern Desert, he will definitely send him a letter in advance.
Even if there is no time.
You will never rush to Beishan Village with your face covered like now. The government of Tangtang Town is going to Beishan Village to find someone. Do you need to cover up
It’s not the Zhenguo Mansion, and moreover, he entered masked!
That's because I don't want to be discovered.
Do you not want your whereabouts to be discovered
wrong!
The army of three thousand people was still marching in formation. It was impossible to hide their whereabouts with such movement. There was only one reason: the other party did not want to reveal their identity.
Is he from the prince? !
Did it come so quickly
When Chihou thought of this, he looked at Fang Zhengyi again.
Then, he discovered that Fang Zhengzheng's expression did not seem to have changed at all after hearing Li Jingfeng's words, and there was also a hint of joy.
Could it be...
Chi Hou narrowed his eyes slightly: "I didn't expect that in just over a year, the Shadow Sect would have developed to such a scale. I have underestimated Wu Yu'er!" (To be continued.)
