Martial Cultivator

The general looked at the young warrior in front of him and did not speak in a hurry.

In just less than an hour, his feelings towards the young warrior in front of him changed again and again. He was originally a general who planned to control the direction of today's situation, but now he found that it seemed that what he thought was not the case. Can be achieved.

But soon, the general came back to his senses and said with some emotion, "You helped me stand up, but I can't do anything about it. You little guy, you really have some tricks."

Chen Chao chuckled, "I'm just telling the truth."

The general looked at Chen Chao again, this time with complicated eyes, and said slowly, "I'm not talking nonsense in front of you little guy. In my opinion, the first prince is indeed good. Among the princes of Emperor Lingzong, only the first prince and Your Majesty is truly regal, but as for your royal brother, I don’t like him.”

Now that Chen Chao has been so calm, if he, a general, is still secretive and dare not say a few sincere words, it will make people think that he is worse than a young boy.

There are just some words, just click on them and stop.

Chen Chao smiled and said, "I don't like that imperial brother either."

He is straightforward and doesn't hide it, but he actually cares about General An's heart.

The words that the general had originally prepared could not be said now. He looked at the young warrior in front of him, finally shook his head, and said with some emotion, "I originally wanted to ask you about everything today, you boy. On the contrary, it is so magnanimous that I feel a little ashamed."

Chen Chao smiled and said, "Others can forget about it, but facing the general, the subordinates can only be sincere."

After the general sat down, he smiled and said, "To be honest, I am asking you to come over this time because I am entrusted by others. But since you are like this, I don't have anything to say. I will just treat it as if I am sorry for my daughter." "I think I have been sorry to her many times over the years, and this time is no different."

Chen Chao said gratefully, "It's difficult for the general."

The general shook his head, "Since you don't have such intention, why should I cause you some trouble? You might not be able to live in peace even if you die by then. That guy Ning Ping may not know how to scold me."

Chen Chao chuckled and said, "I think the guarding envoy has nothing but respect for the general."

The general laughed, not caring whether the words were a compliment or not.

"Serve the wine."

As the general spoke, this was actually his true recognition of Chen Chao.

It makes no sense for a martial artist to meet and drink tea instead of alcohol.

The old steward quickly brought the royal wine over, but before he put it down, the general shook his head and said, "Since it's the old steward,

If I want to invite this boy to drink, how can I use your majesty's reward to take out the last few jars of old wine in the house? I will get drunk with him today. "

The general does not need to prove who Chen Chao is. His eyes have looked at countless people. In just a moment, he already knows what kind of person Chen Chao is. Whether he can drink alcohol is just here. The decision came within a moment.

The old steward was shocked. He originally thought that the general would take the jars of old wine back to his hometown, but he didn't expect that he would use it to entertain a young warrior like Chen Chao. You know, even Chen Chao No matter how famous he is, he is actually just a young warrior, a junior.

The general didn't care about that, but while waiting for the wine, he said with some emotion, "Although Ning Ping holds you in his hands like a treasure, I still want to say that if you really want to go to the north to take a look in the future, , and see what our human race’s biggest enemy looks like.”

Chen Chao said in a deep voice, "Since it is what the general said, I will definitely go to the northern border in the future."

The general nodded with satisfaction. He admired such a junior very much. Even at this moment, he began to feel a little regretful. If he could still live for a few more years, if he could see him early, bring him to the north and train him carefully. From now on, He must be the pillar of the country, and most likely the general after the Northern Territory.

It's just that there are not so many ifs in everything, and my body can't be delayed for long.

After that, the wine was put on the table, a bowl was filled, and the two drank together. The general drank it down, feeling the aroma of the wine in his throat, and then smiled and said, "I have these jars of wine for decades. Over the years, I never had a chance to take it out. Who would have thought that it would be easier for you in the end. "

Chen Chao also picked up the wine and drank it in one gulp, praising, "Good wine."

The general laughed loudly, as if he had returned to the northern border at this moment. After a big battle, he drank a lot of wine and then had a good sleep. When he woke up, it was naturally another big battle, and he continued to kill enemy.

After three rounds of drinking, the general was slightly tipsy and said softly, "I had planned to die in the north, but it was just that when I woke up one morning, I really felt that I was old, like a candle in front of the wind or a lamp in the rain. Now I am particularly afraid of dying in the north, afraid of dying in that icy and snowy place. I was really afraid at that time. Later, I thought that after staying here for so many years, it is not too much to ask for death in my hometown. "

Chen Chao's face was also red, but before he could speak, the general just kept talking to himself.

He said, "If you think about it carefully, fallen leaves will return to their roots. In fact, this is something that many of my soldiers in the north can't get. I feel a little guilty for doing this."

Chen Chao shook his head and said, "As I said before, if the general, as one of the most powerful warriors in the world, does not receive such treatment, it will chill the hearts of all warriors in the world. Your Majesty may also have the same idea."

The general said nothing.

"I joined the army as a young man and spent my whole life in the army. After two generations of wise kings, I saw that the Liang Dynasty was getting better and better. But the road is still long. I really can't see it anymore. What I haven't done yet is just I can count on you young people.”

The general's eyes were blazing, and his old appearance was gone.

At this moment, the general seemed to have returned to his boyhood, still a half-sized soldier. There was no cloudiness in his eyes, but only expectations for the future.

Chen Chao seemed to see the majestic general in the eyes of this general. He was in his prime. He looked down at the world, as if everything in the world was not worth mentioning in front of him. That was The style that a peerless martial artist should have is extremely desirable.

Chen Chao was in a daze for a moment.

It was as if something had sprouted in his body.

Is this a martial artist?

Chen Chao raised his eyebrows, a little excited.

Taking advantage of the wine, the general spread his hands and said, "Chen Chao, His Majesty gives you the right to carry a sword. Come, let me see what kind of sword you have!"

This is the general's invitation to fight, but it is more of an invitation to give instructions.

Is this an opportunity that many warriors dream of? Of course Chen Chao would not refuse, but in an instant the sword was broken at his waist and he suddenly unsheathed it, and a flash of sword light flashed by.

The general did not stand up, he just looked at the broken sword and praised, "What a sword!"

For many years in the Northern Army, he had seen countless knives, but none of them could compare with Chen Chao's broken sword. Although Chen Chao's broken sword was only half the size, it was better than anything the general had ever seen. knife.

"It's a pity it's only half."

This thought passed in a flash, and Chen Chao's broken sword had already arrived in front of the general.

The sword was so powerful that it approached the general.

The general stretched out his hand and flicked the blade, causing the broken knife to make a crisp sound. Chen Chao almost lost his grip on the knife, but soon, he slashed at the general's head again.

The general smiled and said, "Your good foundation is a bit beyond my expectation. I originally thought that those guys in the north would fight on the same territory as you and be equally matched with you. But now it seems that they are not."

Of course. "

Chen Chao made several sword blows after that, using all his strength. However, let alone hurting the general, he could not even make the general nervous.

After a fight, Chen Chao got frustrated.

Fortunately, the general just wanted to give Chen Chao some advice, so the competition came to an end quickly and did not last long.

The general finally stood with his hands behind his hands. He looked at Chen Chao's broken sword and said with a smile, "The sword is good, but it's a pity that it's only half. But with the craftsmen like me, Liang Chao, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make up the other half for you."

Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said, "Xiaguan has already found the other half of the blade, but I heard that this sword needs to be recast. Only the swordsmiths from Jianqi Mountain can do it, but they are the ones who forge swords."

Even before he finished speaking, the meaning was naturally understood.

The general looked at Chen Chao, raised his eyebrows, and suddenly said, "Ning Ping teaches you martial arts, and His Majesty also values ​​you. I also want to give you something."

Just as Chen Chao was about to shirk, he heard the general laugh and say, "When I was young, I had some friendship with a certain swordsmith in Jianqi Mountain. Now, I heard that he is already the mountain master of Jianqi Mountain."

Chen Chao was startled and lost his mind and said, "General, do you know Mrs. Yang?"

Mrs. Yang is not someone's wife, let alone a woman. She is the owner of Jianqi Mountain and the most famous swordsmith in the world.

The general smiled and said, "We have a good relationship."

Chen Chao did not pretend to be pretentious and said straightforwardly, "Please help me, General."

"I will repair a letter and you can give it to him when the time comes. I can't say whether he is willing to do it or not. But regardless of whether he is willing to do it or not, I still have a request."

The general suddenly became serious, with a solemn look on his face.

Chen Chao said, "General, please speak."

The general looked complicated and said slowly, "I should have nothing to worry about in this life, but after all, there is a daughter in the world. She will marry into the royal family, and she may be involved in the struggle for power in the future. If she has her life then, I wonder if you have the ability to protect her life for me."

In the battle for the throne, if the eldest prince loses, I am afraid that the imperial concubine will not be spared. If the general is still alive at that time, he will naturally be able to protect him, but he is about to pass away, and he is still worried about his daughter. s future.

Chen Chao quickly said firmly, "If this day really comes, I will do my best to rescue the imperial concubine."

He did not hesitate. This was a reward for the general's help.

The general looked at Chen Chao and sighed, "If it's possible, I really hope this day never comes."
