Traveling through ancient times: living a different life

The number of captured soldiers who recaptured the three cities totaled 12. Among these people, after so long observation and testing, some sincerely surrendered to the Dachang Kingdom and were incorporated into various camps. In addition, there were soldiers sent by various counties in Changping. Now Han Shaoqing had nearly 20 people under his control.

Because there were brick factories and iron mines, 6 people were left to work in these two places. The army set out for Baita County. After a day and a half of forced march, they camped 80 miles away from the county seat and rested for one night. The next day at 5-6 am,

Leaving 5000 men to guard the camp, the others came to the city wall of Bai Ta County. Commander Wen Haixiong had already received reports from scouts, and knew that Han Shaoqing led an army of 20 to the city to capture Bai Ta County.

Seeing the massive army approaching, he knew that he would die if he fought or not, and it didn't matter if he died. There were nearly 100,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, and they would all die at his hands. In this case, he might as well surrender the city.

So he took 100 people with him, opened the city gate, lowered the drawbridge, stood at the city gate, knelt down and begged Han Shaoqing to spare the soldiers and civilians in the city, and he was willing to die.

Han Shaoqing only ordered his soldiers to arrest Wen Hai and re-examine him later. This sensible general did not want to kill him.

The army entered the city easily and immediately posted a notice that the surrendered soldiers who submitted to the Dachang Kingdom would be treated equally with the people of Dachang.

He immediately ordered a team of troops to go and inform the camp 80 miles away that the 5000 soldiers left there could enter Bai Ta City.

The tens of thousands of Jingguo soldiers in the city were not handcuffed like in the previous three cities. They were simply gathered in a barracks and observed for two days before making a decision.

The army found a large courtyard with three entrances in the east of the city, and Biyue and her companions moved in. On the plaque above the gate were inscribed two large characters: "Han Mansion".

Everyone went in and picked the small courtyard they liked.

This time, Biyue chose a large courtyard with many rooms, so when Chen Chen comes back with Dongnanxixi, they can all stay.

Xiaomai cleaned a house for the young lady and tidied it up.

Biyue walked into the room and took out all the things in her room in the General's Mansion in Hongsha City from the locker and placed them in the bedroom and the living room respectively. Xiaomai made the young lady's bed and tidied up the living room before going out to do other things.

During this journey of fighting, these were temporary resting places. After conquering a city, we would live in it for a few days and then move out again. So when we left, we would pack up all the things in the house and put them in the locker.

Bi Yue saw the two maids clean up their living quarters and then came to ask if there was anything else that needed to be done.

He took the things in Chen Chen's bedroom from his treasure bag and placed them on the table. He then placed an order on the system, giving four sets of bedding and toiletries, as well as other daily necessities to the two of them, and asked them to make all five beds together and put the things in their rooms.

The two maids went to work, and she lay down on the bed to rest. At this time, Chen Chen sent a voice through the telescope. Hearing the familiar voice, he took out his mirror from the locker and saw the five of them sitting in the Pegasus carriage in the sky.

Bi Yue told them, "Now that we have captured Baita County, you should find a safe place outside the city to get off the carriage, then walk into the city and ask the residents nearby in the east of the city. Once you ask, you will know the location of the general's mansion. On the plaque outside the mansion gate, there are two words written on it: "Han Mansion", so you will naturally find it.

Half an hour later, Chen Chun stood at the gate of the general's mansion and saw five people coming from a distance. He waved to them. When they met, they were extremely happy and chattered non-stop.

Xiaomai took the five of them to the house chosen by the young lady. They walked through the corridor and came to a beautiful large courtyard with seven or eight main rooms. Everyone saw Biyue standing on the steps to greet them.

Dongnanxixi and Xibei came over to her and bowed, shouting in unison, "Master, it seems like we haven't seen you for several years. We miss you so much."

Bi Yue walked over, helped the four of them up, and comforted them softly, "I missed you too, so I asked Chen Chen to pick you up personally."

Xiaomai and Chen Chun told the five of them that the rooms had been cleaned up. Seeing that they were all wearing new cotton-padded jackets and trousers, they knew that these were prepared for them by the young lady when Chen Chen went to pick them up.

After everyone sat down in the living room, Bi Yue ordered several sets of different styles of clothes, shoes and socks for each of the four of them from the system, and also gave each of them a suitable weapon and a dagger made of black iron. The few people held the new clothes, weapons and daggers, and said happily in unison, "Thank you, Master, for giving us so many good things. We are so happy."

"Take a good rest for two days. We are at the border now and there may be a battle at any time."

"I know, master. The king told us everything." Everyone chatted about other things for a while and then went back to their own rooms.

The fifth prince also heard the news and came to the courtyard with Luo Chen. Seeing Biyue distributing things to them, he felt itchy in his heart, because this was a black iron dagger, which could not be owned even if one had money.

Seeing them coming, Jiang Shaoxuan looked at the girl in front of him and couldn't help feeling happy. He walked over and asked Biyue, "I heard from Luo Chen that you have a spirit stone that can measure each person's physique and whether they can cultivate immortality."

"Yes, Fifth Prince, do you want to take the test now?"

"Now that you are not busy, can you help me test it?"

Luo Chen winked at Xiaomai, and Xiaomai knew what the young master meant, so he asked his second brother to come over and take the test as well.

Xiaomai ran out quickly, and after a while, Han Chengzhang also walked in from outside.

Everyone sat in the living room outside. She took the spirit stone out of the locker and placed it in Jiang Shaoxuan's palm. He held the blue crystal stone. There was nothing on it. It seemed that he had no spirit roots. The fifth prince looked at Bi Yue with a pair of phoenix eyes and asked anxiously, "Can I cultivate immortality?"

"You don't have spiritual roots, so you'd better not take the path of cultivating immortals. Not only will you not achieve much, but you will also have to pay a higher price than those with spiritual roots. The spiritual energy in this world is very scarce.

Without the blessing of spiritual energy and spiritual stones, you can't go very far. You will stagnate at the third level of foundation building at most. So I think you should give up this idea and practice martial arts well. It's the same thing. "

The fifth prince said to Bi Yue with a sad face, "You mean I can't cultivate immortality because I don't have spiritual roots."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Jiang Shaoxuan's heart suddenly sank to the soles of his feet, and he sat on the chair in frustration. If he couldn't cultivate immortality, he would not be qualified to stand beside Bi Yue. The life span of immortals is very long, while that of mortals is only a few decades. It seems that this point should make him give up all his thoughts.

Han Chengzhang came over and said to Biyue, "Miss Chen, can you please test whether I have spiritual roots for me?" Biyue put the spiritual stone in her hand, but there was no reaction, so it seemed that she also had no spiritual roots.

Han Chengzhang stared in astonishment and asked, "My four brothers all have it. We are from the same mother, so why don't I have it?"

"There's nothing strange about this. Even though you are brothers from the same mother, everyone has a different physique."

After Han Chengzhang got the result of the test, he stood up and walked out disappointedly. Looking at his lonely back, I knew he was in a bad mood. There was nothing he could do about it. Some things are innate. If he must insist on cultivating immortals, it is not impossible. He just needs to work harder and have good opportunities, otherwise it will be a waste of effort.
