Chapter 62 Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes
Cheng Ling and Wang Qilang were surrounded by enthusiasm.
These servants are actually not servants of the Wang family, but servants of the Guan family who are related to the Wang family by marriage.
After they reported their family, Wang Qilang introduced to Cheng Ling: "My eldest cousin is married to Brother Guan Yuelin. Brother Guan is a very good person. When Brother Cheng meets him later, he will definitely be able to make friends with him.
.”
He then said to his servants: "I, Brother Cheng, am a true knight and a righteous man. He risked his life to assassinate King Linhai for the sake of peace in the world. He is not a real woman, in fact, he is a real man! He had no choice but to dress up as a woman.
This is just a way to get close to the King of Thieves."
Because Cheng Ling is still wearing women's clothing that has been torn into half. Although her hair was rearranged into a man bun in the morning and her makeup was removed, the servants still thought she was a woman.
This Jade Shura, Jade Shura's "Jade Shura" screams so smoothly, don't you think she is a rare female hero?
When Wang Qilang explained this, the servants looked over again with surprised eyes.
The leading steward hurriedly said: "It turns out to be Cheng... Young hero, disrespectful, disrespectful."
With just such a sentence, "Young Xia", the flavor of Jianghu came into being.
The rivers and lakes are originally around everyone. They are not separated from the temples. Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
In fact, after watching "The Preliminary Understanding of the General Trend of the World", Cheng Ling also knew that there is such a special group of rangers in this world.
In today's world, maybe it's because the forces of all parties are seriously divided, or maybe it's because the upper limit of the force value of the masters in this world is so magical, that the chivalrous culture is prevalent in this world.
Or to put it another way: Assassins are very common.
There are always powerful people who like to keep knights as retainers, or on a certain day, they will travel thousands of miles to assassinate their master's family.
Some story novels will also describe the affairs of the knights in a very legendary way... This is mentioned roughly in the "Preliminary Understanding of the General Trend of the World" left by Wang Yi.
Going deeper, this initial explanation didn’t go into detail, so naturally Cheng Ling didn’t know.
She clasped her fists and said to her servant, Steward: "I don't dare take it. Steward Chen is being polite."
People are polite and enthusiastic, so naturally she should be polite too.
Manager Chen became more humble and respectful.
Not long after the group walked, they could see the east gate of Chixia City in the distance.
From such a distance, one can clearly feel that the entire atmosphere above and below the city wall is very unusual.
The city gate was not wide open, only the side door was open. The gate was tightly guarded, and almost no one came in or out.
This is the East Gate that has not experienced war. The South City Gate was attacked by King Linhai yesterday, but I don’t know what the situation is.
Wang Qilang asked Manager Chen: "How many of the main generals in Linhai have been captured? Have the main forces been dispersed? How many rebels have been captured?"
Manager Chen was puzzled: "The Qilang Army and Linjun Army have been completely dispersed. This young man knows that. But the rest are beyond the reach of this young man."
Just as he was talking, a man rushed out from the side door over there.
The man was wearing armor and laughed from a distance: "Qilang, you are indeed saved, that's great!"
Wang Qilang raised his eyes and said in surprise: "It's Brother Guan! Brother Cheng, it's me, Brother Guan, here!"
He took a few steps forward, then stopped and turned to look at Cheng Ling behind him.
Cheng Ling said: "Brother Wang, go and meet your relatives quickly."
Guan Yuelin rode his horse and arrived in a blink of an eye.
He was fully armored and dressed as a military commander. Judging from his age, he looked like he was in his early twenties or in his mid-twenties. Because he clearly had a very young face, but he actually had two neat short beards.
.
The most conspicuous thing is that he is wearing armor and actually has a wine gourd hanging around his waist.
Before anyone arrived, the smell of alcohol was already hitting my face.
Wang Qilang was shocked: "Brother Guan, you are already a military general, but you still drink alcohol!"
Guan Yuelin jumped off his horse, strode over and hugged Wang Qilang, then laughed and said: "I went to the battlefield last night and killed a lot of people in Linhai Navy. It was so happy, how could I not drink!"
Then he said: "Qilang, it's great that you are back."
After saying that, he let go of Wang Qilang and when he saw Cheng Ling behind him, his eyes immediately lit up and he said happily: "This must be the knight who beheaded the rebel king in the midst of thousands of troops last night! Great,
Jade……"
Wang Qilang hurriedly said: "Brother Guan, my brother Cheng's name is Cheng Ling, he is a man, he is a man!"
Guan Yuelin was startled for a moment, then looked at Cheng Ling again.
To be honest, at Cheng Ling's age, it is difficult to distinguish between male and female. He wears men's clothes to look like a man, and wears women's clothes to look like a woman. As for being dressed in such rags...
It's hard to define what it is, but when Wang Qilang said that Cheng Ling was a man, Guan Yuelin believed it.
Because her temperament does have a youthful and heroic side, which is sharp, vigorous and powerful.
Guan Yuelin showed great enthusiasm and love for Cheng Ling. He was startled for a moment and then laughed and said: "He is a man. This nickname of Jade Shura is also very appropriate! Such a jade-faced gentleman deserves this nickname."
After saying that, he invited Cheng Ling and Wang Qilang to enter the city together.
Guan Yuelin looked at Wang Qilang and said with emotion: "My father-in-law didn't sleep all night last night, and he couldn't get over it after Lin Haijun was separated. I was too worried about you. Fortunately, you were saved by the hero Jade Shura."
Cheng Ling:......
She is really insensitive to the title of Jade Shura, it is too vulgar, I forgive her for not being able to appreciate it.
Guan Yuelin bowed to Cheng Ling again and thanked him. Cheng Ling hurriedly said: "Brother Guan, if you really want to thank me, please stop calling me Jade Shura. I really don't dare to do it!"
Guan Yuelin laughed and said: "Brother Cheng, from the beginning, there is only a wrong name, not a wrong nickname. Not to mention Jade Shura, you are worthy of it, even Jade Guanyin is worthy of you."
What Jade Guanyin! Cheng Lingtong broke into a cold sweat.
Let’s get over this topic. From now on, she and this “jade” character are incompatible!
The few of them talked and gradually became familiar with each other. Although Guan Yuelin joked that Cheng Ling could still be called Yu Guanyin, in fact he had changed his name to Brother Cheng. He was very measured and not annoying.
It was time for Wang Qilang to return to the city. Cheng Ling said: "I'm not going to hide it from Brother Guan and Brother Wang. I still have family members outside the city."
As she spoke, she roughly recounted the story of how she and her family fled from Lou County.
This must be explained, there are some things that cannot be hidden.
The most important thing is that Cheng Ling now has the status of "Wang Qilang's savior". Although she does not ask for repayment, she also knows that this matter can provide protection for her family.
This made her dare to be honest, and it was also a kind of temptation.
After explaining her origin, how will Guan Yuelin and Wang Qilang treat her? Will it change from before?
