Martial Cultivator

He was an old man with a vicissitudes of life and gray hair. He was no different from an ordinary old man. He did not have the majesty of a general, nor did he have any aura of a strong martial artist.

He seemed to be an ordinary old man, an old man who was about to reach the end of his life. Chen Chao could not see anything special, but he still quickly saluted. Facing this general, he must respect him, and he deserves it. Respect.

The general came to sit down on the chair next to Chen Chao and said slowly, "I've been waiting for a long time. Have you scolded me, this bad old man, in your heart?"

Chen Chao shook his head.

The general looked at the young warrior in front of him and said seriously, "Really not."

Chen Chao shook his head, with a sincere look on his face, "For a warrior like the general, lower officials can only admire him."

The general waved his hand, took a sip of the cold tea on the table, and said with a smile, "I have been disarmed and returned to my field. I am no longer a general."

Chen Chao did not refute or speak.

The general waved and asked Chen Chao to sit down. Then he put down the teacup and sighed softly, "That guy in Ningping is very optimistic about you and treats you like a treasure. I, an old man, am also a little curious, so I want to I want to see you before I leave the city of God. I’ll waste some time on you, little one. Don’t blame me.” .🅆.

Chen Chao shook his head, still looking sincere, "I should have sent a letter of greeting to the General. I just thought that the General has many people in the government and the public these days who want to see the General. The General may not be able to spare the time." It was time to see the official, so he gave up. Who would have thought that the general would personally accept the invitation, which really flattered the official. "

The general did not speak, but carefully looked at the leader of the martial arts test at the Ten Thousand Willows Club. He had not been in Shendu for many years, but many things in Shendu would actually spread to the north. Before the Wanliu Club, he was originally He planned to let the few guys in the north who he could see go south to participate in the Wanliu Hui, but at that time they encountered a large-scale attack by the demon army, so he gave up. After that, even he did not expect that the Daliang Chaohui would be here this time. He won the first prize in the Wanliu Competition, and it was not just a literary test or a martial arts test, but both civil and military tests. He was a martial artist and was not interested in the literary test, but he was very interested in Chen Chao, who was the leader of the martial arts test. At that time, he actually Xiu Shu had already asked whether such a young man should be sent to the north for training, but later he found out that Ning Ping, as the guardian envoy, was unwilling to let him go, so he did this

stop.

In fact, if Ning Ping was willing to let go, Chen Chao and he would not have met at this time.

The general smiled and said, "You are a young talent after all. It is reasonable for Ning Ping not to let go. I have seen your battle in the imperial city. You have a very solid foundation, which is very good. It's just that there is something vague about Ning Ping." That guy’s shadow, it seems like he has taught you a lot about your martial arts.”

Chen Chao nodded and said, "Your Majesty the Guardian has helped a lot in my practice."

"It's true that he has chosen the right guy. Not bad." The general said with emotion. "Speaking of this, I am not as good as him. After all these years in the north, I have not been able to choose a suitable guy. I am not up to par." , in the end we can only let him help me watch the northern border for a few more years."

Chen Chao said, "The general is dedicated to serving the country, but he is not a perfect man, so how can he do things perfectly?"

The general smiled and had no feelings for the young man's precise answer. In fact, the more Chen Chao acted like this, the more disappointed he was. He wanted to see an innocent young warrior, not a young man who had lost his life early. Upbeat guy.

But thinking about it carefully, the general felt that there was nothing strange about it. Since he had a special life experience and walked in this world, he had to think more about it, otherwise he would not know how he died.

But the general was a little disappointed after all.

He rubbed his brow, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Chen Chao glanced at the general and suddenly asked, "When will the general plan to leave the capital so that he can be sent off by his subordinates?"

The general shook his head and said, "The fallen leaves are just returning to their roots, so I won't bother the world anymore."

"The general has served the country his whole life, so he should be treated with courtesy." Chen Chao said seriously, "I think that when the general leaves the capital, Your Majesty should lead all the officials to see him off."

The general said, "Is it true that all I seek in this life is fame?"

Chen Chao shook his head, "General, naturally he doesn't seek fame.

But sincerely do something for the people of Liang, but if the general cannot accept this courtesy, wouldn't it be a shame for all the warriors in the world? "

The general was a little stunned.

Chen Chao said sincerely, "When Xiaguan first came to Shendu from Tianqing County, he had a verbal dispute with the academy students on the bank of Nanhu Lake in the academy. I think the general also heard about it. In fact, the fight was nothing more than a vulgar martial artist. The monks outside the country use these four words to belittle us warriors, academy students, and even the civil servants in the court. I am afraid that the lower class warriors cannot speak out, and no one can hear their voices, but warriors like the general, if they are not If you show your attitude, won’t all the warriors in the world be disappointed?”

"The guard envoy left the capital of the gods before. In fact, this should be the case. My warriors have been so degraded, so we actually need this kind of honor, so that the people of the world know that warriors are not vulgar, nor are they looked down upon by the people of the world, so please General, even if it is not for us, but also for the countless warriors in the north who have died for the human race, please do not leave the city of God quietly!"

The moment he saw the general's invitation, Chen Chao actually had the idea that he was not satisfied with Wu Fu's status in the Liang Dynasty and in the entire world. Xie Nandu had great ambitions. For the northern border and the human race, she They all have great ambitions. Chen Chao can't think of going that far for the time being, but for him, he also has his own ideas. Since the word "martial arts man" is also his identity, he hopes to elevate these two words to a much higher level in his lifetime. .

This was the idea that came to him after he came to the capital of the gods, realized that warriors were belittled by others, and heard that the Emperor of Liang was roaming thirty thousand miles in Mobei.

The general looked at Chen Chao and said with emotion, "I didn't expect you to have such an ambition. I almost lost my sight."

Chen Chao smiled and said, "I have never revealed it to anyone, but I want to say something about the general. After all, there are only three warriors in the world that I can truly admire."

The general asked curiously, "I count as one, Ningping also counts as one, and the last one is your Majesty?"

These things that Emperor Liang did were enough to be admired by the people of the world, but the Chen Dynasty had a special status, and the general did not necessarily think that the Chen Dynasty would have such admiration for his majesty.

Chen Chao nodded, "Your Majesty spans thirty thousand miles across the desert.

The battle with the Demon Emperor shocked the past and the present, and the official also admired him. "

At this point, Chen Chao did not hide his admiration at all.

The general said, "I seem to see the shadow of the late prince in you."

As soon as these words were said, the main hall became much quieter.

After Emperor Liang took the throne, figures like the former prince and the deposed emperor were rarely mentioned by people. Even if some people would mention them in secret, at this moment, after all, it was different.

Chen Chao was silent for a moment and said calmly, "That's my father. It's no secret that he comes to the general."

The general thought about countless answers from the Chen Chao in front of him, but he never expected that the current Chen Chao would tell him his identity so straightforwardly.

Chen Chao said, "I think the reason why the general invited subordinates to join the government this time is not to confirm this."

This time it was the general's turn to be silent.

"Previously, the government and the public had only guessed at your identity. But now that you tell me, it will be different."

The general looked into Chen Chao's eyes, his expression gradually becoming serious.

Chen Chao did not flinch and looked directly at the general, "I trust the general."

"I've only met you once."

"But I believe that all warriors in the world can trust the general!"

The general was silent.

The atmosphere became tense for a moment.

The general suddenly said, "Do you know my identity?"

Chen Chao said, "The general is the former general of our dynasty and the current Duke of the country."

The general frowned and said, "You know that's not what I'm talking about."

Chen Chao said nothing.

The general said, "I am still the eldest prince's father-in-law."

Chen Chao still didn't speak.

The general asked bluntly, "Do you know that what you said to me today will most likely be known to others."

Chen Chao didn't say anything more, but repeated, "The official said that he can trust the general."
