Xun Ding had imagined the scene of meeting his biological father after a long separation, but it was definitely not the scene before him. His pupils were shocked, and looking at his biological father - there seemed to be three parts of doubt, three parts of confusion, three parts of unfamiliarity, and one part of thinking and exploration in his eyes...
The next moment, he raised his hand and added a word spirit to Shen Tang.
As a target, he was nearly cut off the city wall by a sword.
Looking up, I met Shen Tang's eyes which seemed to be smiling.
As if to say—
It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
Xun Ding: “…”
He admitted that he had been away from home for many years. As time went by, his body grew, and his cultivation improved, his facial features were quite different from the young boy he was back then, but his appearance hadn't changed so much that his own father couldn't recognize him at a glance, right? ?
In fact, it’s not Xun Zhen’s fault that he didn’t recognize him at first glance.
In his impression, his son is a handsome boy with a gentle appearance, obedient most of the time, occasionally throwing a tantrum, and dressed like a good-natured baby. In the words of the lord, his son is a deer caught a glimpse in the depths of the forest, simple, clean, ignorant, innocent, untainted by worldly filth, and with a bit of whiteness like a newborn baby.
What about Xun Ding today
He was not mistaken for a bandit, thanks to his parents' stable genes. He still looked the same, and he was indeed handsome, but half of his body was covered with a big insect skin, and he had a light beard on his face. Combined with his temperament, he gave people an inexplicable sense of disharmony, like a bandit hiding in the mountains wearing a scholar's shirt, and a rough and strong man dancing on tiptoe...
Therefore, at first glance, Xun Zhen only thought that the young man looked familiar, and did not compare him to the good old son who had abandoned his empty-nest father. He looked again, and he looked familiar; and the third time... Xun Ding had already been hit by his master and was forced to the wall.
With another strike of the sword, most of the beast skin was cut off, revealing the armor underneath and the tiger talisman on the waist.
Xun Zhen: “…”
Young warrior = son who ran away from home
At the same moment when this equation appeared in his mind, Shen Tang had already cut a bloody path, his sword was as powerful as a rainbow, and his sword skills were light and agile, pointing directly at Xun Ding. He saw his son smiling evilly and provoking: "You dare to come up, you are really brave! But - if you reveal your identity here, I think even if you are you, you can't guarantee that you can retreat safely, right?"
If the leader of a force goes among the enemy, unless he has absolute confidence, he is definitely giving warmth to the enemy.
Shen Tang smiled confidently, revealing his white teeth.
“You can try.”
As we all know, the higher the level of a warrior's martial courage, the wider the range of damage he can cause in a fight and the greater his lethality.
When the two armies were fighting, once the generals of both sides met, they would tacitly move to a relatively empty place with few people to restrain each other. Shen Tang brought Xun Zhen here, not with the intention of killing many enemies, anyway, the balance of victory in this siege war had already tilted towards her, and more importantly, he wanted to see Xun Ding's excitement and let him feel the long-lost "fatherly love like a landslide" from his old father.
But before she could see the excitement, she heard the word "Lord" in the chaotic and noisy voice. She decisively let go of her long sword and shot it straight in the direction of the sound. However, the sword was rushed, and not all of Qiu Cheng's subordinates were useless, so no casualties were caused. Xun Ding was a beat slower, and only then did he realize that her target was Qiu Cheng, and he hurried to make amends.
Just as Qiu Cheng had never seen Shen Tang, Shen Tang didn't know what this guy looked like. He didn't expect Qiu Cheng to be watching the battle on the city wall when the battle started today. He thought that this guy was hiding somewhere else with the main force, watching and getting anxious. Just thinking about it made him feel relieved.
In fact, Qiu Cheng appeared here to stabilize the army and boost morale as much as possible, but he couldn't stand the two miserable defeats in the battle, and the city defense was full of loopholes, which directly led to the collapse of the front line and allowed more and more enemies to successfully enter the city...
Although the territory would not fall immediately, it was indeed unsafe. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Qiu Cheng could only evacuate under the protection of everyone. But at this moment, something unexpected happened, and a long sword shot straight in their direction.
The long sword pierced through three cultural barriers and barely stopped.
Looking at the tip of the sword heading straight for his head, Qiu Cheng's eyelids trembled violently, and at the same time, endless anger was burning. Although this sword was far from threatening his life, such an experience was a kind of ominous omen for him.
"My lord, hurry up."
Miao Shu lowered her beautiful eyes and urged again. With the escort of brave warriors and literary scholars, and Qiu Cheng's own ability, it would not be difficult for him to escape safely. Moreover, Xun Ding could intercept him and help buy more time for evacuation.
Qiu Cheng didn't even turn around, leaving a mess on the ground.
As for what would happen to Xun Ding, who was hired with money, what would happen to the fewer and fewer guards on the city wall, or even what would happen to the common people of Linshan County who lost the protection of the city wall defense line... None of these things could be compared with his life and property.
After descending the city wall, we could still see soldiers rushing to the tower to reinforce us, and there were already a large number of enemy soldiers in the alleys of the inner city. They broke through the caves in the city wall and entered the city from there. The battle line was advancing fiercely, while our own soldiers were scattered...
Various colors of martial energy lights lit up inside and outside the city.
The brilliance is intertwined and dazzling.
Little do they know that beauty is only their disguise, while killing, violence, blood and plunder are their true core.
Shen Tang frowned: "Xun Ding, don't stop me!"
"No, I take money from people and help them get rid of disasters."
Xun Ding still has the spirit of Qijuan.
Do whatever is written in the deed.
certainly-
Whether or not one has the ability to do it is another matter.
Shen Tang hooked her finger, and the sword flew back to her palm. She said with a cold look in her eyes: "That depends on whether you have the ability to do so!"
"I naturally..."
Before he could finish his words, the sword came stabbing at him.
However, it was not Shen Tang’s sword.
Xun Ding: “…”
Xun Zhen held the sword in his hand and said, "My lord, leave it to Zhen."
Shen Tang, who was angry just now, suddenly lost her temper. She didn't intend to let Xun Zhen roll up her sleeves and beat her son violently. After all, a scholar with a literary mind and a warrior with a brave heart would not do such a reckless thing without a cerebral thrombosis for ten years...
Well, except her.
The most important thing is that Xun Zhen wants to take care of her eldest son. Once she uses her big move, her small treasury will be seriously damaged!
Xun Zhen seemed to read Shen Tang's mind and said bluntly: "My lord, don't worry, someone will naturally pay the money."
Xun Ding: “…”
His father is going to spend money to beat him up
Shen Tang: “…”
Which sucker will pay for it
Xun Zhen looked at his son, and his good mood dropped from the peak to the bottom of the night: "You said 'take money from people and help them get rid of disasters'? I guess you have helped people get rid of disasters over the years..."
What I mean is, it’s just right to use the money you collected to beat you up!
"One leaf blinds you!"
Xun Ding: “…”
He understands his old father.
When you have no money, you are just a third-rate scholar.
When he has money, he is the boss.
_(:з」∠)_
Alas, I am completely impotent. Now is the fifth day. My temperature was high for the first three days, and normal during the next two days, but it soared at eight o'clock in the evening. I also have problems with coughing and sore throat. Today I found something like a blister on my tongue, and eating is like being tortured... Alas, this confinement period... I am simply here to endure a tribulation.
