Chapter 145: Farewell to Ye Ziqiong
Xue Chang had promised Master Jingxin before, and of course he also agreed this time.
Xue Chang's obedience satisfied Jiang Shijia, so he asked Xue Chang: "What are your requirements?"
Xue Chang replied: "When the war is over and I will return to Chengdu, I will submit an application to the Battle of the Military Affairs Office to establish a sect. I hope Lord Jiang, you can approve it as soon as possible!"
Although Jiang Shijia was surprised at why Xue Chang was so urgent, he made it clear without hesitation: "There is no problem at all."
In the following time, Xue Chang continued to stay in the yard and practiced martial arts diligently, and did not go around to find out how Jiang Shijia investigated and dealt with the destruction of the Fifth Scout Team.
During this period, the captain of the scout team and the head of the Hanshan Sect, Leng Yuntian, came to see Xue Chang in the yard. He must have been instructed by Jiang Shijia. He neither asked about the Fifth Scout Team nor mentioned how the Battle Command would deal with the matter. He just thanked Xue Chang for his outstanding performance. He also told him that although the Fifth Scout Team had been cancelled, he was still a member of the scout team. However, considering that he was injured in the battle that night, he specially approved him to continue recuperating and not to participate in the patrol.
Leng Yuntian was not the only visitor of Xue Chang, the small courtyard. On the second day after the martial arts army returned, Shangguan Yi, who had almost died, came to visit. He found that Xue Chang had actually had a small kitchen by himself, so he became a regular visitor here. He even often went to the market to buy wine and use Xue Chang's small courtyard to hold a small banquet (because the Pingqiang War is coming to an end, many martial arts people have proposed heroes many times, and Jiang Shijia finally let go of the ban on drinking), Luo Dachui, Geng Po, and Zhou Qiao come to participate from time to time.
While drinking and chatting, Xue Chang learned from them that Ziqiong Ye performed very well in the siege of Fucheng, especially on the day of breaking the city, she led the disciples of the Iron Blood Changhemen to fight bloody battles and first climbed the city, opening a breakthrough for the entire army, thus winning the awe of some martial arts people, especially those martial arts people from Jinghu martial arts. Some enthusiasts even gave her a nickname called "Hongyan Luosha". During the period after returning, Ziqiong Ye followed Ye San to visit the martial arts people in the Jinghu area to expand the influence of the Iron Blood Changhemen in the Jinghu martial arts world. Therefore, she, who has become a representative figure in the Jinghu martial arts world in the martial arts army, could no longer run to Xue Chang's courtyard to eat and drink without any scruples like before.
Xue Chang felt disappointed, but more of a sigh of relief. He used to have a good impression of Ziqiong Ye, but since he accepted Luo Lanmeng, he was a little afraid of seeing Ziqiong Ye, and he himself couldn't figure out what kind of mood it was.
In addition, Xue Chang also learned that after the army conquered Lai Fucheng City, the Wulin Army had served as a vanguard, heading south through the Jidao, captured several Shengqiang tribes, and learned from the prisoners that Miao Wuhen and several subordinates had escaped into the vast mountains to the west...
"This guy probably fled to Qingluo." Zhou Qiao made an inference.
By mid-May, the sky continued to clear and rainy days were no longer visible. The puddles on the ground were also evaporated by the gradually getting hotter weather. The Wulin Army finally obtained the approval of General Li Baisong of Rongzhou and was able to go home.
As the host, the Bashu martial artists must of course send the Jinghu martial artists away first.
On that morning, the sun was shining brightly and the sky was clear and the pier in the Rongzhou military camp was very lively.
After experiencing this war together, martial arts people from both places have cultivated friendship with each other in the intermittent battles over the past two months, so the farewell scene is quite lively.
However, at this dock where people gathered, the most crowded place was where Ziqiong Ye was, who was unparalleled, had excellent martial arts skills, optimistic and cheerful, and was still the leader of the iron-blooded Changhe Sect, obviously conquered the younger generation in the Bashu martial arts world, allowing them to let go of the entanglements and prejudices caused by the influence of the older generation, sincerely come to say goodbye to her and give her blessings. Of course, there are also many people who want to express their love.
Xue Chang stood not far away, looking at Michelle Ye who was surrounded by stars like the moon, and couldn't help but feel emotion.
"What's the use of standing here to watch? Why don't you go over and say a few more words to my doorman?" Zhou Qiao's voice sounded in his ears, but Xue Chang hesitated.
Zhou Qiao put his hands on his chest and urged dissatisfiedly: "What are the shames that young people are afraid of? Why are they hesitating? Come over quickly! My doorman is very good. Look at her so popular. If you start too late, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
Xue Chang was so hard that she didn't know how to speak.
"I said Zhou Qipo, as a senior, what did you say? If Mr. Ye knows, you will be scolded again." Geng Po, who followed him, quickly rescued Xue Chang.
"It is natural for men to love women to love, so what can't be said!" Zhou Qiao put on a vicious look and glared at Geng Po: "Cook, you are so brave now, right? You dare to tease me, sister!"
"Okay, Sister Zhou, I was wrong!" Geng Po apologized helplessly, and then said, "There is not much time now, I have some important words to say to this kid."
"Forgive you, tell me." Zhou Qiao immediately changed into a generous expression and waved his hand.
"I'm leaving here soon and heading to Jinhu." Geng Po looked at Xue Chang with an extremely serious expression, but his tone was a little bleak: "I'm afraid I will rarely return to Bashu in the future... From now on, the little girl... will rely on you to take good care of her!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Geng." Xue Chang smiled and comforted: "I am her master, of course I will take good care of her. When she succeeds in her studies in the future, she will visit you in Jinghu."
"Ge, you kid is like this now. He was plotted against someone and almost lost his life. How can I rest assured?" Geng Po suddenly cursed, causing the smile on Xue Chang's face to freeze.
"The martial arts world looks quiet nowadays. In fact, many things in secret are complicated. There is no sect or sect and no background. It is very dangerous to go out and sect in the world!" Geng Po reminded earnestly: "You kid should have snacks. If you want to try all kinds of ways, you should quickly establish the sect! Don't go out and break around before you create a sect, do you know?!"
Xue Chang knew that although Geng Po was a little mean, he was really thinking about him, so he nodded seriously and said, "I understand!"
Geng Po didn't say anything anymore, but just patted his shoulder hard.
"Xue Chang!" Shangguan Yi came again in front of him and said with a smile: "Uncle Luo thought there were too many people here, so he hid in the cabin and would not come out to say goodbye to you. He asked me to tell you that when you have time to go to Jinghu in the future, you must visit him at the iron blood Changhemen in Jiangling. At that time, he will treat you with good wine and food, and also examine how your drunken boxing is practiced. If you don't practice well, he will use wine to pour you hard."
Xue Chang responded with a smile: "Brother Shangguan, tell Senior Luo that I will definitely not disappoint him."
"I won't say goodbye to you." Shangguan Yi looked at Zhou Qiao, then Geng Po, and said with a smile: "I am different from the uncles. I don't like to do chores. Even when I arrive in Jiangling, I will still run around in the future. You have to prepare the wine at any time. Maybe one day I will suddenly appear in front of your door, especially after you set up a sect, I will try my best to congratulate you!"
"Okay, Brother Shangguan, I'm very willing to see you again." Xue Chang said seriously: "But next time I meet, I hope you can tell me some good news."
"What good news?" Shangguan Yi was stunned.
Xue Chang replied with a smile: "Good news for you and Miss Liu!"
Shangguan Yi laughed: "I borrow your auspicious words, maybe I will really succeed next time I see you."
Zhou Qiao sneered disdainfully, "Two fools who can only say and can't do it."
"Uncle Zhou! Uncle Geng! Senior Brother Shangguan!" A familiar, low and hoarse voice came: "Young Master Xue, you are all here."
Accompanied by this voice, a beautiful woman in men's clothing, walked over and walked over. The smile on her face was like the warm sun in late spring, illuminating Xue Chang's heart.
"Master Ye, congratulations, let the Iron Blood Changhemen rebuild their reputation in the Great Zhou martial arts world in this war!" Xue Chang praised sincerely.
"It's a little improvement, but it's still far from it." Ziqiong Ye was not satisfied with the pursuit of everyone before. She looked at Xue Chang without any concealment, and then said loudly: "I want to congratulate you too. I'm going to make great contributions. I think it will be of great help to you to establish a sect!"
Xue Chang smiled casually: "With Master Ye, you are in front of you, I can't fall behind."
Ye Ziqiong smiled sweetly, took a step forward, stood side by side with Xue Chang, pressed the long sword on his waist, and looked at the river running out of the port with bright eyes. Her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and then she stretched out: "After this battle, my Iron Blood Changhe Sect will stand in Jinghu, grow and grow, and create a new glory in the Great Zhou Dynasty!...I hope that Young Master Xue can get what he wants, establish his own sect, and create a great reputation in the martial arts world! When you have time, welcome to my Iron Blood Changhe Sect as a guest, and we will definitely sweep the bed to welcome you!"
The wind blows gently, and Xue Chang smells the faint fragrance coming from Ziqiong Ye. Without turning his head and looking carefully, Minglun’s beautiful face appears in his mind, but in a flash, he turns into Luo Lan’s dream of falling fish and geese... For a moment, he is in a trance.
However, after hearing what Ye Ziqiong said, he immediately cheered up and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your motivation by Sect Master Ye! Some people will make a big splash if they don't make a sound. I believe that it doesn't take too long to establish a sect and gain reputation in the world. It's just like Rongzhou taking a boat to Jiangling and going down the river, only two or three days! When I led my disciples to the door, I hope that the iron-blooded Changhemen is no longer the same as before!"
Ziqiong Ye raised her eyebrows and responded with a tough attitude: "It will definitely be as Mr. Xue wished!"
Xue Chang curled his smile, bowed solemnly, and said, "Master Ye, we will have a date later!"
Ziqiong Ye solemnly returned the gift: "Sister Xue, see you!"
Amid the farewell sounds, passenger ships sailed away from the river bank and were heading down the river. A low and passionate roar came from a passenger ship: "...The cloud sails cross the sea, and the wind and waves will be broken!"
When everyone on the shore was discussing the beauty of this poem and guessing who was chanting it, Xue Chang laughed: Maybe the couple can’t do it, but it’s also good to be a confidant who encourages and appreciates each other!
………………………………………………………………………………
In June, the Bashu Wulin Army returned to Chengdu.
When we set off, it was the season when spring rain was raining; when we returned, it was already hot and the sound of cicadas was just beginning to rise.
For Xue Chang, it was the second time he had returned to Chengdu from another place. The first time he stepped into this prosperous city with uneasiness and vigilance towards this strange world; and this time, just seeing the city walls in the distance, he felt a sense of intimacy in his heart.
The team first entered the backyard of the military service department and led Jiang Shijia to give the final speech before the dissolution. He first thanked everyone present with great emotion: it was precisely because of their bloody battle that the martial arts army played a decisive role in successfully winning the final victory in this Pingqiang War.
Then Jiang Shijia reminded all the martial arts people present: In the next one or two months, they will be ready to accept the rewards issued by the court at any time.
Finally, he loudly reminded everyone: Wulin people who have special requirements for rewards can go to the Jinkui Pavilion of the Wushuosi to register their needs so that he can mention it when reporting his merits to the court, but whether it can be satisfied depends on the court's intention.
Amid the warm cheers, the martial arts army was disbanded.
Xue Chang neither wanted martial arts secrets nor wanted to find a job. For him, rewarding some money was the best, so he did not rush to the Jinkui Pavilion like some studs, but walked straight out of the gate of the Martial Arts.
"Xue Chang stayed." A heavy voice came from behind.
Xue Chang turned around and saw that Leng Yuntian was coming. He stopped and bowed and said, "Captain."
"The team has been disbanded. The one standing in front of you is no longer the captain of the scout team, but only the head of the Hanshan Sect." Leng Yuntian said with a serious face.
"In the past two months, I have taken care of you! In my heart, you will always be my captain!" Xue Chang said earnestly.
Leng Yuntian was stunned, and then his eyes became softer: "Your words made me feel ashamed. As the captain, I did not protect my subordinates well, and I caused you to be in danger..."
Speaking of this, he wanted to speak but stopped. After thinking for a while, he spoke solemnly: "You should try to stay at home recently and never go outside the city!"
Xue Chang understood why Leng Yun said this tomorrow.
Some time ago, Jiang Shijia called Mrs. Qiu, the leader of the Tang family, and Feng Yousen, to the tent, to scold her, and also claimed that she would report to the court and punish the two factions.
