A special forces soldier traveled through time and space to become a genius of literature and martia
Chapter 25 Why did you come just now?
The large group marched out of the city gate and headed for the suburbs, supported by the common people. It took about a day to get from Yunfu City to Zhuang County.
Yuan Ying sat in the carriage and occasionally lifted the curtain to look outside. She was not sure whether the old man would come, but she was still looking forward to it.
I walked a long way out of the city gate but still didn't see the old man. He probably won't come. It seems that I wasted so much energy yesterday.
Yes, decades of grievances and hatreds cannot be resolved by a few words from an outsider.
It seems that I can only rely on myself.
The vehicle slowly moved forward...
Suddenly, the guard leading the way in front shouted loudly: "Who is in front? Get out of the way quickly! This is the carriage of His Royal Highness Prince Jing. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!" Before he finished speaking, an old man was seen leaning on the ox cart leisurely, ignoring the warning.
He leaned lazily on the ox cart and didn't get annoyed: "I'm looking for my master. He told me to wait for him at the city gate."
Yuan Ying was delighted when he heard the familiar voice. He quickly lifted the curtain and shouted, "Don't hurt him, he's mine!"
Seeing this, the old man lazily got off the ox cart and said jokingly, "Master, you are really slow here."
When these words were spoken, everyone looked bewildered. Murong Xuanyi even frowned, his eyes moving back and forth between the old man and Yuan Ying.
Doctor Xiao and others looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering in their hearts, why does this old man look so familiar?
Yuan Ying walked quickly to Murong Xuanyi's carriage and pleaded, "Your Majesty, this man is my apprentice. I need his help on this trip. I hope Your Majesty will allow him to go with me."
Murong Xuanyi hesitated for a moment, and finally waved his hand and agreed: "Let him ride in the same car with you."
Yuan Ying thanked Murong Xuanyi with joy and pulled the old man into the carriage.
The old man leaned out of the car window and shouted to the guard: "Take good care of my cow."
Yuan Ying looked at the old man's naughty appearance and smiled without saying anything. At this moment, he felt that the old man was handsome no matter how he looked at him.
The old man looked at Yuan Ying's malicious smile and said quickly: "I'm telling you, I'm not doing this for that dog emperor, I'm just trying to help you, you have to keep your word, you said you'd take me in as your apprentice, so you can't lie to me."
Yuan Ying held her forehead with her hand. When did she say that she would take him in as her apprentice? But for now, she had to go along with the old man: "Okay, okay... You've been so good to me for helping me. I will be filial to you in the future, and I will take care of you until the end of your life..."
The old man heard this and said, "Pah, pah, pah... Are you hoping that I will die soon?"
Yuan Ying thought it was over, and he started to talk nonsense...
Yuan Ying quickly said: "No, no... I'm just expressing my determination."
…………
All I could hear along the way was the old man and the young boy quarreling loudly.
Murong Xuanyi sat in the car in the same position. He pondered over the true relationship between the two. He didn't believe in the master-disciple relationship. He ran out yesterday to meet this old man. If he was really a spy, it would be safest to keep him under his nose.
Doctor Xiao and the others felt that the old man looked very familiar, but they just couldn't remember who he was.
Along the way, everyone had their own thoughts...
The convoy continued to move forward at a steady speed. It was the beginning of summer in the south, and the scorching sun was ruthlessly burning the earth. The usually vigorous trees also became listless. The cicadas on the trees kept chirping: "Zhi-la, Zhi-la." It seemed to be saying: "It's so hot, so hot...
The heat of midsummer is suffocating. Sitting in a carriage feels like being in a steamer. Even a breeze brings heat waves, making people feel extremely hot.
Yuan Ying was also feeling the heat in the car. He was sweating profusely...
The old man seemed like nothing happened.
Yuan Ying couldn't help but ask, "Old man, aren't you hot?"
The old man glanced at Yuan Ying and said, "I have a magic weapon."
Yuan Ying snorted, totally unconvinced.
Seeing that he didn't believe him, the old man took out a black pill from his pocket and handed it to Yuan Ying, saying, "My magic weapon - the Summer Heat Relief Pill. If you take it, you won't be afraid of the heat anymore."
Yuan Ying was skeptical: "Is it true? You won't poison me again, right? I'll tell you your poison..."
The old man rolled his eyes at her and said, "Eat it or not, I can't bear to give it to you." Then he prepared to take it back.
Yuan Ying quickly snatched the pill into his mouth, and it slid down with his saliva. There was a strong minty smell.
After swallowing it, I felt a cool sensation all over my body, starting from the soles of my feet. Sure enough, I didn't feel hot after a while. This... this is too magical.
Yuan Ying stared at the old man in amazement and said, "You are too amazing. Give me one pill every day from now on. I will rely on you to keep me alive in this hot summer..."
The old man slapped Yuan Ying lightly and said, "Your medical skills are useless. The herbs such as snow frog, snow lotus, ice flower, ice reed powder, and mint are fine if they are used alone, but when taken together, they are extremely cold. Men should not eat them every day, otherwise they will be easily impotent."
"Women should not take this pill. If a woman takes this pill, she will suffer from abdominal pain during menstruation at the very least, or infertility for life at the worst."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Ying immediately opened the car window and induced vomiting, but nothing came out after a long time...
She glared at the old man and cursed, "You old fool, why didn't you tell me earlier? You killed me. I'm not done with you..."
If she was just infertile for life, it wouldn't matter, since she wouldn't consider getting married in the future anyway. But what should she do if she has abdominal pain during menstruation? She had dysmenorrhea before, and her menstruation was always irregular. Now that she has taken this Qushu Pill, she is afraid that she will be in so much pain that she wants to give birth...
The old man was confused and asked, "Why are you reacting so strongly? It's okay as long as men don't eat it every day."
Yuan Ying saw that the old man wanted to cry but had no tears. He said angrily: "Stinky old man, I don't want to talk to you now..." Then he turned his head away.
The old man was also angry and turned his head to the other side. The two ignored each other...
Not sure if it was a psychological effect, Yuan Ying felt a dull pain in his abdomen.
At noon, the large team rested under the willow trees by the river.
Murong Xuanyi sat under the willow tree. Jiang Chong handed him some dry food and water, while Fang Yang fanned him. The others also got off the car and sat under the shade of the tree to cool off and eat their dry food.
Yuan Ying and the old man got off the car, each holding their own food and walking away. The atmosphere was very strange...
Murong Xuanyi frowned and looked at the two of them.
Just now they were showing a deep affection between master and apprentice, but now it seems like they are falling out over uneven distribution of spoils...
When the team was ready to continue their journey after eating and drinking, a huge eagle appeared in the sky and hovered high in the sky.
Yuan Ying whistled into the air, and the eagle swooped down from the air and flew towards her. Yuan Ying caught it steadily with her arms.
The eagle was seen crawling into Yuan Ying's arms like a cute hen, and everyone was stunned.
Yuan Ying was also speechless, he couldn't figure out whether this guy was an eagle born in the wrong body, or a hen in the wrong skin. He was obviously a bird of prey, but he made himself look like a domestic animal. He was so clingy.
She walked up to Murong Xuanyi with Brother Eagle on her arm and said, "Your Highness, I rescued this in the forest. It is very humane and will not hurt anyone. Can I keep it with me?"
Murong Xuanyi grew up in a military camp and could tell at a glance that this Saker Falcon was professionally trained. Generally, Saker Falcons are only used in the military. They are mainly responsible for transmitting information, like a carrier pigeon, but they are more powerful and faster than carrier pigeons.
Rescued in the forest? Humph! It seems this person is not very good at lying.
Murong Xuanyi decided to take advantage of the situation. He said calmly, "Since you saved him, you should take good care of him and don't hurt him."
After saying this, he got on the carriage. When everyone saw the prince getting on the carriage, they all got on their horses as well.
Yuan Ying also forgot about his recent unpleasantness because of Brother Ying's arrival, and happily hugged Brother Ying and got into the carriage.
The old man was also very happy to see Brother Eagle. He stretched Brother Eagle's feathers with his hands and said, "Not bad. You have grown fat again after not seeing you for a few days."
Yuan Ying looked at the old man with a warning look and said, "Don't try to take advantage of it. Otherwise..." Yuan Ying gestured at his neck with his hand.
The old man lay down angrily: "Stinky boy, I don't want to talk to you now."
Yuan Ying laughed in anger. The old man still held a grudge. Yuan Ying didn't care about him.
I held the eagle in my arms, combed its hair, and stretched its legs. I had a lot of fun.
Jiang Chong rode his horse close to Murong Xuanyi's car window, muttering something.
All I heard was Murong Xuanyi saying, "Send someone to keep a close eye on them. If they get any news out, kill them without mercy. No matter if they are human or eagle."
Yuan Ying didn't know at this time that he was being watched as a spy. If he did anything out of line, he would be shot.
