Praying for good deeds is calm on the outside, but in fact, one is alert on the inside.
He carefully observed Gong Xiqiu's expression to judge the latter's intention of suddenly mentioning this matter. At the same time, he was doing two things. For the first time, he carefully looked at the other party's facial features, trying to combine Gong Xiqiu and the other party he had met many years ago. The members of the Gongxi clan faced each other. However, too many years have passed, and the boy from that time has completely grown up. In addition, the Gongxi clan has many similarities in appearance, so it is really difficult to identify them.
The only thing that is certain is that Gongxi Qiu saw him when he was a boy. He must be one of the Gongxi youths he met back then. Meeting old friends after being apart for many years sounds like a good thing at first. However, according to the information obtained by Qi Shan, the Gongxi clan was exterminated a few months after they mistakenly entered the Gongxi clan's territory.
This time point is too sensitive.
There is no guarantee that Gong Xiqiu will not be misunderstood as a spy who is here to check on him.
For this reason, Qi Shan cannot guarantee whether Gong Xi Qiu is an enemy or a friend.
Naturally, I don’t dare to answer questions easily.
Gong Xiqiu raised his eyebrows slightly. This action made his eyes more aggressive: "What is Qi Zhongshu afraid of?"
Qi Shan's heart was beating more and more, and he considered it. Said: "Qi is not afraid. This sword was bought at a high price in the early years. I was worried that the first owner had an old relationship with General Gongxi, so I didn't know how to tell him."
Yun Ce: "..."
This excuse sounds quite blunt.
With Gong Xiqiu’s brain, he would probably be fooled.
Qi Shan thinks so too.
Gong Xiqiu nodded: "Well, so you are Qu Tan?"
Qishan: "..."
Gong Xiqiu raised the sword, weighed it and played with it for a long time. He looked at Qi Shan's silent expression and said with a smile: "Does Qi Zhongshu know where the flaw is? The sword-making method of the Gongxi clan is different from that of the outside world. The sword was forged back then. ,No Are you asking for a few drops of blood to temper the sword body? The blood is used to feed the Gu insects. Then the special Gu insects can be sacrificed to the sword to make the master and the sword connect with each other. "
This is just. A more metaphysical statement.
To be more straightforward -
Qi Shanhui feels that this sword is easy to use.
If you can wear this sword for a long time, the sword will slowly absorb the breath of praying for good in a subtle way. It does not need frequent maintenance to keep the sharpness of blowing and breaking hair, and the brilliance is restrained. As soon as Gong Xiqiu got the sword, he knew that the owner of the sword was still alive.
Saber is also in very healthy shape.
One look revealed that the owner of the sword had nourished it with his breath not long ago.
Qi Shan said that the excuse for acquiring Saber in the early years was no longer valid.
Seeing that Qi Shan did not answer, Gong Xiqiu asked: "Are you?"
Of course Qi Shan could answer no and deny it even to the point of death.
But his intuition told him that Gong Xiqiu's personality and brain circuit were completely different from ordinary people. If he didn't admit it, Gong Xiqiu might break the sword with his bare hands. Just because Qishan is not the original owner, as far as Gong Xi Qiu is concerned, he is not qualified to hold the things belonging to the Gong Xi clan. It's just a purchased sword. If Gong Xiqiu breaks it, it will be broken. At the worst, he will be compensated in gold and silver of the same price.
Qi Shan reluctantly admitted.
"I am, but I don't know who you are?"
There is something wrong with the Gongxi clan.
Danish names are not commonly used. They are chosen to record family trees and are only used after adulthood. Before they were minors, tribesmen often called them by their nicknames. The group of young men from the Gongxi clan that Qi Shan met were not very old. Qi Shan really didn’t know what their names were...
Gong Xiqiu handed the sword back to him: "A Nian."
Gong Xiqiu's violent murder that Qi Shan was worried about did not happen.
Gong Xiqiu asked back: "When you hesitated just now, were you worried that I would suspect you of having something to do with the genocide? Just you guys?"
It wasn't that he looked down on the strength of Qishan and Qi Shan, but that At that time, both of them were checked by the high priest, and they were allowed to stay in the tribe only after making sure that there were no problems. If the two of them were really spies on the outpost, they would have had their necks broken long ago and lost their fertile land.
Pray for good: "..."
Gong Xiqiu is quite clever at times like this.
A face with colorful makeup instantly appeared in his mind.
It is really impossible to connect the young man back then with the person in front of him. Gong Xiqiu feels the same way, but he is more curious about another thing: "Why don't you use your real name and reverse Shan Qi's name instead?" Come and use it? Does he have any objection?”
Speaking of this matter, Gong Xiqiu remembered that Qi Zhongshu had a bad reputation and seemed to have the title of “evil conspiracy”. He is clearly Qu Tan, but he used his friend's name. Isn't that unethical?
Qishan moved his mouth weakly.
He wanted to explain that "Qu Tan" was not his real name either.
The last thing to say is: "He won't have any objection."
Gong Xiqiu scratched the tip of his nose: "That's true. Remember, he used to indulge you and borrow his name. It’s not a big deal.”
In his memory, Qu Tan had a bad temper and would draw his sword to solve the problem without saying a word. It was this guy who wanted to set fire to the ancestral graves of the clan. In comparison, Shan Qi's temper is much better.
Gong Xiqiu asked again: "Where are they?"
Qishan: "No longer alive."
This answer made Gong Xiqiu's next sentence choke in his throat.
He was surprised: "No longer alive?"
On second thought, separation between life and death is the norm nowadays.
With the latter’s temperament, it is indeed impossible to survive.
Gong Xiqiu didn't like to be sentimental, he just felt a little sad for a few seconds before returning to normal, and suggested going for a drink to connect with each other. When old friends meet again after more than 20 years, it suddenly becomes clear!
The corner of Qi Shan's mouth twitched slightly: "No."
Gong Xiqiu was rarely rejected by others: "Why?"
Qi Shan said: "Busy!"
Don’t even look at what time it is.
The war has just ended, and there are a lot of things waiting to be dealt with. How can I have time to drink and reminisce with Gong Xiqiu? He has changed, and so has Gong Xiqiu. They have only known each other for more than a month, and their friendship with each other is not deep enough. It seems ridiculous to deliberately recall the past. Gong Xiqiu is not just seeking revenge against himself.
If you are really seeking revenge, this matter will be difficult to handle.
Qi Shan did not give Gong Xiqiu a chance to speak.
"Farewell, Qi Mou is going to work first." Looking at Qi Shan's back as he walked away, Gong Xiqiu felt a little disappointed: "Oh, when I grow up, it won't be as interesting as before."
As an outsider, Yun Ce could also see that the atmosphere was awkward and tried to smooth things over: "After all, we have been apart for so many years, and there is always time to get acquainted with each other again. General Gongxi and Qi Zhongshu are ministers in the same court, and there will be many opportunities for contact in the future. I’m anxious for this moment.”
Gong Xiqiu didn’t dwell on this matter.
"Well, what you said makes sense."
Raised his hand to hook Yun Ce's shoulder and patted him.
“I see you have a restless breath, do you want me to help you?”
The fastest way for a courageous warrior to improve his level is to fight, to break through, hone, and master various skills skillfully in battle.
Yunce naturally couldn't ask for it.
But——
My heart is beating, but not now.
Gong Xiqiu said unhappily: "If you can do it, you can do it. If you can't do it, you can't do it. I am an indomitable man. Why are you so annoying?"
Yun Ce sneered: "There are still secular duties in the army..."
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
Well, well, well, everyone is busy, right?
It’s good to be busy.
When Yun Ce also disappeared, Gong Xiqiu turned his head and looked at his silent elder brother and said, "Brother, you are the only one left."
He has nothing to do now, and his whole body is itching like ants crawling.
At this time, a blue bird landed on Jimo Qiu's finger.
He took a look at the content of the message and put it away: "Brother Fang Liu said that there was a shortage of military doctors in the wounded barracks and not enough medicine for wounds, so he asked me if I wanted to help. A Nian came to help me when he had nothing to do. "
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
He followed up with small steps, feeling aggrieved.
After all, he is also Mama's personal general.
Even if he is just a mere commander with no soldiers under his command, and he is ordered to attack... hmph, does he not want to lose face?
I keep complaining in my heart, but I work very efficiently.
"How can we take care of so many wounded soldiers?" Gong Xiqiu had an idea in his head, and he thought of a wonderful way. He transformed hundreds of martial soldiers on the spot, and two people worked in groups to carry the wounded soldiers.
If the ground is too congested, just go to the ground where you are and use air transport.
Fang Yan's mouth twitched fiercely.
If it had been left at Xiaocheng's time, he would never have imagined that such a day would come - Gong Xiqiu, who wanted to look at people with his nostrils, would actually use his trump card, which consumes a lot of martial energy, in such a scenario.
Other warriors saw this scene and acted accordingly.
Fang Yan sighed: "It's a good thing after all."
With enough manpower, there are more things that can be done.
Many wounded soldiers died because they were not treated in time.
Now that the wounded barracks has enough manpower, it can free up manpower to triage the wounded soldiers. Those who are seriously ill will be treated first, while those who are not seriously injured will wait... As long as they can save their lives, even if they are missing arms or legs, Xinglin doctors can help them regenerate their broken limbs.
The wounded barracks was so busy that the lights never went out.
The troops of Kang State are also busy cleaning up the remaining soldiers in the Northern Desert.
Integrated troops and horses and decided to recapture Shexing Pass on the third day.
The recovery of Shexing Pass was much easier than expected. First, the elite defenders were short of food, and Shexing Pass had been without food for three days. Secondly, Shen Tang also publicized the fact that Liu Guan replaced Brother Tude. As the news of the defeat of Tudege's troops in the battle came, there was an internal mutiny. Shen Tang sent people to instigate rebellion. Without much effort, he successfully instigated one of the groups to rebel, and agreed to cooperate internally and externally.
When Brother Tude stepped onto Shexing Pass as a prisoner, his face was extremely ugly, especially when Shen Tang ordered people to collect all the human bones that had not yet been processed. Piles after piles of bones, even an experienced veteran on the battlefield couldn't help but frown.
Shen Tang smiled at Brother Tude.
Yin and Yang: "Your army has a pretty good appetite."
Brother Tude is completely shameless. The food and grass were all supervised by his subordinates. He knew the specific amount, but he didn't know that a series of numbers stacked up in his eyes would be so visually shocking. However, no matter how much he wanted to escape, he could only bite the bullet and watch.
Shen Tang was quite bored when he saw this.
For a long time, Brother Tude tested Shen Tang.
“I wonder what Lord Shen wants?”
This is a reminder to Shen Tang that paying tribute, surrendering, and sending hostages can go through the process. There had been no movement for several days. He guessed that Shen Tang was preparing to dry himself out so that he could raise the price. Brother Tude recalled the previous standards in his mind and had a rough estimate in his mind.
Shen Tang asked: "What do you think?"
Brother Tude said: "In the past, the annual tribute was..."
According to the custom, the annual tribute offered by the Northern Desert to the northwest countries includes but is not limited to gold and silver treasures, rare products unique to the Northern Desert, Handsome men and beautiful women. In view of the defeat in the Northern Desert and the serious food crisis, the first batch of annual tribute can be increased.
Shen Tang interrupted him.
"Sigong? What Suigong?"
＿|￣|●
I had a fever, and every time I swallowed I felt like my throat was being cut with a knife.
Take out the medicines you always have at home. If you don’t feel better tomorrow, go to the hospital to register.
PS: Gong Xiqiu and Qi Shan are old friends who met more than 20 years ago. They had a good time at the time, but it has been diluted by time, and they are even a little embarrassed?
PPS: It’s not important that you lose your vest this time. What’s important is Qu Tan’s identity.
