After the Fairy Disappeared

  Chapter 22 Commander's Token

  He Yue quickly drew his hand and said angrily: "Captain Nian, please respect yourself!"

  Nian Songyu is not only not self-respecting, but also looks anxious, pulling the boy into his arms, bowing his head and kissing.

  He Yue turned pale with fright.

   Fortunately, a person rushed out from the diagonal thrust and punched him in the face!

   This heavy punch is like a tiger, if it is hit, Nian Songyu will fly at least a foot away, with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

   But he saw the opportunity quickly, shrinking his body, fist to fist, and at the same time kicked the opponent's chest with great force, obviously angry.

  But in this way, He Yue let go.

  The man actually punched feignedly, but the ultimate move was the short blade in his left hand, which stabbed Nian Songyu's ribs silently.

  Since Nian Songyu realized it, he also took two steps back, avoiding that leg with foresight.

  He Yue's shout came: "Stop! Stop hitting!"

  The person who came was He Lingchuan.

  He didn't wait for Nian Songyu to speak, he tilted his head with surprise on his face: "Captain Nian, why is it you!"

   "I thought some shameless apprentice sneaked in and wanted to ruin my second son's innocence." He Lingchuan wondered, "Captain Nian, why are you standing in front of his hut?"

"I love the bed. I can't sleep at night. I walk around casually. When I meet Mr. He, I talk to him." Nian Songyu patted his sleeves, "Dadu is a place where fish and dragons are really mixed. When you go there from the countryside, you need someone to take care of you." .”

  He smiled gently at He Yue: "Second Master He, it's rare that we hit it off, how about drinking with you tomorrow night?"

  He Yue's face was pale and he didn't say a word.

   "Okay, when the time comes, my second child and I will definitely accompany you, and you won't return if you don't get drunk!" He Lingchuan took over the conversation, "It's just that I have a little bit of enthusiasm for drinking and playing. You have to bear with it, Captain Nian."

  Nian Songyu heheed twice, always feeling that this guy's demeanor was a bit petty, and he didn't want to talk to him.

  He Lingchuan said again: "By the way, has the person who revealed the news of my serious injury been found out? It must be a traitor!"

  Nian Songyu's smile slowly disappeared: "Not yet." After saying that, he turned around and Shi Shiran left.

  As soon as he disappeared, He Yue rushed to the pool to wash his hands, his speed was like a rabbit being shot in the tail.

  He Lingchuan heard him swear rarely, and saw that his face turned pale, and he washed his hands over and over again, wishing to get off his skin. "Brother, fortunately you are here."

  He is only fourteen years old after all, no matter how young and mature he is, he still has to rely on his elder brother to support him at this time.

   "Looking at how he doesn't want to be beaten, my hands are itchy." He Lingchuan comforted him, "But even if I'm not here, he won't really attack you today."

   "He's pretending?" He Yue frowned, "I checked Nian Songyu, he seems to really have this hobby."

   Several generations of Yuan emperors have been fond of masculinity, so it has become the fashion in most cities, and it is common for the upper class to raise beautiful men. A handsome young man like He Yue is just the prey that some people like.

   "I don't know whether to pretend or not." He Lingchuan chuckled, "But he threatened you. For the sake of your innocence, our family has to step up. Seduce in the afternoon and intimidate in the evening. This is a two-pronged approach."

  He squeezed his younger brother's face hard: "Look at this delicate skin and tender flesh, no wonder others have malicious intentions. I asked you to practice martial arts with me a long time ago, but you refused."

  He Yue slapped his hand away with a "snap": "They are impatient. Is it because Panlong Desert is about to change?"

   "Maybe." He Lingchuan turned and walked out, "You go to bed early, I'll find something to eat."

   “Snacks are often hidden in the low cabinets of large kitchens.”

   "What's today?"

   "A pot of walnut cake." He Yue coughed, "But there's only half left."

   "Isn't it Apple Honey Crisp?" He Lingchuan suddenly realized, "I said why I can't find it sometimes, so it was stolen by you!"

  Going to a secluded place, he shook his left fist vigorously.

   "Hiss, it hurts." He looked at the red knuckles, not broken but a little swollen, "Nian Songyu, there is something for you."

  His fist has been simmered with iron sand and flint all year round, and it can easily break a knife as thick as a bowl. But the punch that punched Nian Songyu sent back a force that made his finger bones ache.

  ￥￥￥￥￥￥

  Early the next morning, the two guests were invited to the main hall, and He Chunhua personally announced the good news to them.

"The whole leopard body has been recovered." Governor He was busy until late at night yesterday, and only slept for an hour, but now his face is radiant, and he is more energetic than his two sons, "But I think the two should only want this leopard tooth .”

  He spread his palm, showing that leopard tooth.

  Nian Songyu couldn't wait to get closer: "Look!"

  No one cares how the leopard carcass was found. It's just a set of rhetoric, and everyone knows it well.

  But He Chunhua sighed: "I still don't know which enemy secretly did it. After all, Heishui City is located on the front line of the frontier fortress, surrounded by foreign enemies. It is unexpected that there are so many insiders. Please forgive me for delaying the important affairs of the National Teacher."

   What else Sun Guoshi could say, he could only be magnanimous: "It's okay, those who don't know are not guilty, not to mention Mr. He was also seriously injured."

  So He Chunhua took out the leopard tooth, and poured all the contents on a brocade plate: "It's all here, please look at the national teacher, which one is a token?"

  People gathered around to watch, and Sun Fudong asked for a glass of water, and threw a grass seed into it.

  After shaking it twice, the grass seeds began to take root and sprout, and grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.

  In just over ten breaths, it grew into a flowering plant with only one fluffy white flower with six petals, the size of a fingernail.

  Sun Fudong picked up the things on the brocade tray, and approached Xiao Hua one by one.

  The flowers didn't move until—

  Until He Lingchuan approached with the half-cut comb, the white flowers suddenly withered, even the stems and leaves withered, and finally turned into powder and scattered in the water.

   "It should be it." Sun Fudong just wanted to reach out, but He Chunhua took the comb first, and looked at it carefully, "It's been more than a hundred years, and the attached resentment is still so strong."

  Nian Songyu wondered: "The token of the commanding envoy of Panlong City is actually a comb?"

  He Lingchuan shrugged: "He also had a wife and daughter."

  He Yue continued to ask: "I don't understand one thing. Back then, Xianyou Kingdom managed to break through Panlong City. Why didn't they take away the Dafang Pot? They suffered a lot, so they should know its value."

"According to the history of Xianyou Kingdom, after the army broke through Panlong City and slaughtered the city, the river wells dried up on the third day, and even the water in the moat disappeared overnight; He fell to the ground and died. The Xianyou Army saw that the place was in danger, so they had to evacuate as soon as possible, not to mention that there was no water or food, and people couldn't hold on. And this team was transferred to the north to fight, and it was useless to use the generous pot." Sun Guoshi After taking a sip of tea, "Not only that, I have searched through the history books of Xianyou, but I have not seen any battles suspected of being joined by heartworms. Once this kind of treasure is obtained by Xianyou Kingdom, how can there be any reason not to put it on the battlefield?"
