Ark of the Immortal
Chapter 419
Greyhound watched the bus go away. He smashed his mouth and took another sip of tea.
"Gone, everyone is gone. Are you almost done, brother?"
"Well, I'll see her off and then leave."
The undead man watched the bus disappear into the mountains of Shang Shu, and then looked at the Greyhound.
"And you?"
"Me, it's about the same."
Greyhound said.
"I originally wanted to go a little further with you. But I feel that if I stay by your side all the time, I will be holding you back. Just think about it. I might as well go to the capital to find my juniors. I think Find a way to restore the connection between Rhode Island and Dayan."
If Rhode Island and Dayan can establish diplomatic relations. It is a good thing for both Rhode Island and Dayan.
Rhode Island can get the support of the most mysterious country on this continent, and Great Yan is also equivalent to an extra pair of invisible hands. It can send Great Yan's manpower to Rhode Island to cooperate and deal with other matters outside Great Yan. thing.
This is a win-win situation, but the details of cooperation still need to be carefully discussed.
But this kind of thing can't happen in Shang Shu a few years ago. The civil strife in Great Yan affected the layout of Rhode Island, and the contact between Greyhound and Rhode Island was directly cut off. So much so that the Rhode Island Office in Shang Shu was in a dilapidated state.
"Then I wish you a safe journey. When you come back from Yumen, we will meet again in the capital."
Greyhound poured a cup of tea and handed it to the undead man.
The undead man took the tea cup and touched it with the greyhound.
"See you again."
...
Just when the undead man went to see W off, Chen also came to a familiar place.
It was here that Chen felt the horror of communicating with grandparents for the first time.
It’s not that the Heavenly Master feels oppressive. But Chen Zhi really couldn't handle this kind of passionate care.
After knocking on the door of Lao Tianshi's room, I heard the voice of the girl who was taking care of Lao Tianshi inside.
"Come, come, is it Miss Chen?"
"it's me."
Chen responded and then saw the door being opened.
"Please come in quickly, Heavenly Master is already waiting for you."
Chen changed his shoes and came to the second floor.
The Heavenly Master was the same as before, wearing shabby clothes and cotton slippers, sitting on a recliner with his legs crossed and listening to today's news.
Chen came behind Lao Tianshi. Before Chen could speak, he heard Lao Tianshi say.
"Today, it's time for you to go."
"yes."
Chen has been under the care of the Heavenly Master for the past few days and has been following the royal guards to perform tasks in Shang Shu.
I have also seen those so-called demon species, and those mortals who were invaded by demon species.
Only then did she realize how safe and harmless the criminals she had met in Longmen Law Enforcement were compared to the demon species.
"You've been tired these past few days."
"No, it's a very precious experience for me."
Chen said seriously.
"If it weren't for Mr. Immortal's hurry to go to the south, I would still want to stay with the seniors of Jinyiwei for a while."
"Okay, it's good to have this intention."
The Heavenly Master chuckled. He stood up from the chair and pulled Chen to sit on the sofa next to him.
What followed was a meal of concern for Chen.
Ask her how she has been eating in Shang Shu these days, whether she sleeps well, and what she thinks of the atmosphere in Jinyiwei.
These are very common topics, but when they are said in the mouth of an elder, Chen subconsciously becomes cautious.
Every time it was his turn to relieve himself, Chen was much more nervous than at ordinary times. Maybe this was the concern of Dayan's elders for their children and grandchildren.
After chatting for a while, the old master took a sip of tea made by the girl who took care of him, moistened his throat, and changed the topic.
"When you go to Yumen this time, you should see a very rare scene. If you have the opportunity, you must get close contact with the real fire. Don't be afraid of what impact it will have on you. You should be holding Chixiao during this period. Can you gradually feel Chi Xiao's recognition of you?"
Chen nodded quickly.
"Yes, I always feel that during this period of time when I went on missions with the seniors of Jin Yiwei, the Red Sky Sword became much more active."
"Chixiao is a sword that kills traitors and eliminates evil. Wei Yanwu will let you become the Longmen Superintendent in order to hone your understanding of Chixiao swordsmanship. But when you become the policeman, you will only face the evil of ordinary people. .So I asked you to go to Jinyiwei and face the evil suppressed by Dayan. In this way, your Chixiao sword technique will become more refined."
The old master seemed to have thought of something.
"At the beginning, when Mr. Wei was here with me, he also followed this path. Unfortunately, he went north with the Yumen and did not have the opportunity to experience the power of true fire in the Ten Thousand Demons Cave."
Chen didn't speak, and she didn't dare to speak either.
Although she had a premonition very early on, what was Wei Yanwu going to do when he asked her to come to Dayan. But now that he knew it, Chen only felt that the pressure on his shoulders was getting bigger and bigger.
"You don't have to be nervous."
Master Tian noticed that Chen was a little stiff, so he smiled and said.
"Chi Xiao can respond to your thoughts, which means that you have been recognized by Chi Xiao, but you still need to practice. When one day you pull out Chi Xiao, Chi Xiao can still restrain the divine light in your hands, then you can practice We're home. Just think of all this as honing your martial arts. Martial arts and mind cultivation are one and the same and will not be separated."
Chen quickly lowered his head and responded.
"Been taught a lesson."
Master Tian was very satisfied with Chen's modest attitude.
He took another sip of tea.
"This trip to the Ten Thousand Demons Cave coincides with the festive season. Not only that, you can also see scenes that happen once in decades."
The Heavenly Master sighed.
"On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I worship my ancestors and my soul returns to heaven. General Li, it's time to leave."
309. Yumen
Yumen.
Also known as Yumen Pass.
Since ancient times, Yumen Pass has served as a mobile war fortress that resists demons in the north of Great Yan and suppresses all demons in the south. Yumen Pass carries tens of thousands of soldiers, ready to fight on the front line of the war to protect their homeland and country at any time.
As a mobile city, Yumen itself has a complete urban planning, and ordinary people live in it. But most of them are military family members or young children who serve as reserve troops.
There are also restaurants, schools and entertainment facilities here. After all, as long as we are human, we will have emotions and desires, and we will have daily needs. This is inevitable.
However, Yumen is under the control of Dayan officials and has strict discipline. It is more like an entire large-scale logistics support city accompanying the army.
Only one-half of Yumen's area is planned for ordinary people's daily life, and the remaining half is used as military garrison, military supplies storage points, and training venues and other military facilities.
Of course, the most bizarre thing about the entire Yumen is its super maneuverability as a war fortress.
Among the power systems designed by the Heavenly Masters of Great Yan, Yumen perfectly fits every waterway and mountainous area of Great Yan.
Even after changing the river's course, it can still move over the mountains and rivers, just like the legendary city of the gods.
The folk customs of Yumen are fierce, and even ordinary people know how to deal with the enemy with one or two skills, so Yumen has never been short of soldiers. If there are not enough active-duty soldiers, the vacancies will be filled by retired soldiers who live in Yumen and are unwilling to leave. Not to mention there are hundreds of thousands of ordinary people who have also undergone complete military literacy training. Even if all the people are soldiers, it will not be enough. no.
And Yumen moves back and forth between the north and the south every year. It was to transport sergeants to the Great Wall in the north and receive supplies in the south.
But this year, Yumen went north very late. In previous years, a few days before New Year's Eve, he should have arrived near the Great Wall to guard the border. But this year, he still stayed at the Ten Thousand Demons Cave in the extreme south, guarding key areas.
Such an accident made all insiders couldn't help but think about some special circumstances. What happened in Yumen?
Only the people in Yumen knew that they were not stranded because of any problem, they were waiting.
"Son, help me get the meat over there."
"Where is it? I didn't see it."
"It's in that box. The box next to the refrigerator. If you look through it, you'll find it. It's a large piece of saved bacon that was just smoked a few days ago."
"No, I really didn't see it. If you don't believe me, come and look for it yourself!"
I saw the woman wearing an apron put down the kitchen knife in her hand, ran to her son, and kept talking.
"I can't find it and I can't find it. What can I say if I find it?"
"Look for it, it's definitely not there. I've looked through it several times, but it's really not there!"
Within a few seconds, the woman pulled out a piece of bacon from nowhere in the box and waved it in front of her son's eyes.
"No? How did I find it? You're a ghost kid, why are your eyes so bad?"
"..."
The son looked confused. He really didn't find this thing in the box, and he didn't know how his mother dug it out.
The two were busy in the kitchen for a while, and then the woman asked.
"Do you know what your dad is doing recently? He hasn't been back for a long time, and you are the only one who knows that mom is lonely and has to come back for dinner every day."
The son was still peeling garlic. He rubbed his eyes while peeling.
"Didn't you say that the general will be coming in a few days? It would be better before New Year's Eve, and the army should also be prepared to welcome the general. Dad is sorting out the logistics. Then I will go north at the right time. In the next few days But I’m very busy.”
The woman smiled and shook her head.
"God General... We have heard stories about him since childhood. Is there really such a person?"
"Why not? You don't know that on the first day we entered the army, we wanted to see the real fire. That fire is really..."
The son didn't seem to have been in school for long. He just clicked his tongue twice to express his surprise and couldn't say any adjectives.
"Anyway, it must be real. The real fire is in that cave. How could it be fake?"
"I'm not saying that the real fire is fake, it's just this divine general."
The woman put down the knife and said with some emotion.
"Your ancestors told it to your grandpa, your grandpa told it to your mother and I, and I told it to you. This kind of thing is like a legend. No one can tell whether it is true or not. After all, it has been going on for thousands of years. He is a person from the past. How could this person live for thousands of years?"
"how could I know?"
The son didn't have any doubts, he just knew to continue to refute his mother.
"The Heavenly Master can live for hundreds of years, and the Divine General can live for thousands of years. Isn't there any problem?"
While talking, his son also came up with specific facts.
"Look, didn't a riot break out in Shang Shu some time ago? In fact, I heard that the god general returned and killed the demons over there to clean up the problems within our Dayan. After Shang Shu, it will be the turn Come to our Yumen!"
"Okay, okay, okay."
The woman just smiled.
To be honest, there is really no need for her to worry about whether the divine general really exists.
But in the legend, the god general gave the people of Dayan a chance to live and work in peace, and this was enough.
There was no need for her to quarrel with her son. As a soldier from Dayan, he always needed something to support his inner beliefs.
She felt that the God General was a good candidate. Wise and mighty, if only it were true.
"Besides, didn't Brother Li next door become a Jinyiwei? He came back from vacation two days ago and said that many brothers from Jinyiwei had gone to Shang Shu to meet the god general. Unfortunately, it was his turn to take a break, so he didn't sign up that time. You can squeeze in."
The son said, shaking his head sadly.
"It would be great if I could also join the Imperial Guard... That would be a great general!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Is Jin Yiwei such a good job?"
When the mother heard what her son said, she quickly stuffed a piece of fried meat into his mouth.
"I'm telling you, don't keep thinking about joining the Imperial Guard. Being a soldier stationed on the Great Wall is already very dangerous, but don't fight those monsters alone. How many lives do you have?"
As she said that, her mother quickly fried a dish and put it on the plate.
