Chapter 171
Sanshan Pass is the barrier to the south of the imperial court, and its geographical location is not inferior to Wuguan.Last year, after Deng Jiugong was transferred to the Western Expedition, Kong Xuan was the accountant sent by the imperial court, which is enough to prove how much the imperial court attaches importance to Sanshan Pass.

Revisiting the old place, Deng Jiugong couldn't help feeling emotional. He dismounted from his horse and went directly to the customs, asking to see the commander-in-chief Kong Xuan.The general guarding the gate saw that Deng Jiugong had a vicissitudes of face, his clothes were worn out, and his attitude was a bit bad, but when he saw the tiger talisman Deng Jiugong took out, he immediately made a 180-degree turn, nodded and bowed and led Deng Jiugong to the General Military Mansion.

"Kong Zongbing, after a few months, we meet again."

Deng Jiugong had a smile on his face. After he broke through that day, he didn't go back to Chaoge directly, but came here, wanting to meet Kong Xuan again, this master of Taoism who made Lu Ya helpless.

Kong Xuan showed surprise on his face, and said lightly: "I have seen King Pingnan."

There was a notice issued by the court that almost all the registered officials of the big merchants knew that Deng Jiugong had made Pingnan King. Although Kong Xuan didn't care about the court affairs, he still knew about this kind of thing.

Deng Jiugong was mentally prepared for Kong Xuan's lukewarm attitude and didn't mind.In fact, Kong Xuan not only treats himself, but also treats others with a repulsive attitude, which may be the reason for his relatively withdrawn personality.

Deng Jiugong said: "Mr. Kong, Mr. Deng is visiting his hometown again. If he wants to stay in this city for a few days, I have to ask you to take care of him."

Kong Xuan frowned, he didn't like to make friends with others, but Deng Jiugong was honorable and could not be neglected, so he said: "Pingnan King came from a long way, and as the master of this place, I should entertain you. Please, Pingnan King!"

Deng Jiugong glanced at him, nodded with a smile.

……

After being locked up in Sanshan for three days, Deng Jiugong stayed in his room to practice and consolidate his cultivation.After the breakthrough in cultivation base, not only the strength increased, but also the Five Elements Escape Technique was self-taught.

In the past few days, Deng Jiugong didn't look for Kong Xuan, and Kong Xuan didn't come to him. On the contrary, Chen Geng, Kong Xuan's general, came more frequently.

After all, Gao Jineng's example is there, as long as there are generals who are ambitious, they will inevitably admire Deng Jiugong.Since the founding of the country by the great merchants, military commanders who have reached the level of Deng Jiugong are within fingers.

Chen Geng doesn't know spells, but he is good at martial arts, and belongs to the type of brave and foolhardy.When Deng Jiugong was in contact with him, he did not forget to inquire about Kong Xuan's situation in secret, and learned a lot from it.

Kong Xuan, since the founding of the Great Shang, has been a border guard and guarded the peace of the empire. He has been doing this for hundreds of years. It is said that he is sticking to a promise he made back then.He is indifferent and withdrawn. He never talks to others unless necessary. He always walks alone. However, he has a high level of humanity and has captured several strong opponents with one move. Therefore, he has a high prestige in the army.

Mastering these basic conditions is enough for Deng Jiugong, the next thing he has to do is to become Kong Xuan's first friend.Perhaps in Chen Geng's view, this is an incredible thing, but Deng Jiugong believes that he can do it.

It doesn't matter if he has a cold personality or a loner, as long as he desires to be understood in his heart is enough.Kong Xuan has been guarding the great merchants for hundreds of years. He has great virtues, but his skills are useless. He is lonely.

Early the next morning, Deng Jiugong went to the General Military Mansion.

After Kong Xuan said something, he stopped talking.

Deng Jiugong took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Thank you, Zongbing Kong, for your hospitality. Deng will leave Sanshan Pass tomorrow. I've bothered you for the past few days. Before leaving, I have a gift for you. I hope you can accept it."

In the world of practice, magic weapons and elixir are always the stepping stones. No matter how indifferent Kong Xuan is, when he sees the golden elixir, he will feel a good impression from his heart. This is human nature.

Kong Xuan was surprised, and when he saw the golden pill in Deng Jiugong's palm, his expression was a little moved, and he said: "King Pingnan, you will not be rewarded for nothing. This gift is too expensive, and I cannot accept it."

For his Daluo Jinxian's Taoism, Jindan doesn't help him much, but it is also a rare treasure in the eyes of practitioners.Deng Jiugong is just a human immortal, and it is already considered a luxury to sell two golden pills.

Deng Jiugong laughed and said, "Whether the gift is expensive or not is second to none. The main reason is Deng's kindness. I hope General Kong will accept it."

"This……"

Kong Xuan showed a look of embarrassment. He has practiced Taoism for tens of thousands of years, but he has never received a gift.After hesitating for a moment, he planned to accept the gift, and said, "Thank you, King Pingnan."

Having lived in the human world for hundreds of years, although Kong Xuan didn't like to associate with people, he was also familiar with human affairs. He knew that Deng Jiugong showed enough kindness to him because he wanted to make friends with him.

Deng Jiugong suggested: "You and I are both practitioners. If you don't think Deng's cultivation is superficial, how about calling him a fellow Taoist?"

Kong Xuan glanced at him, and said: "The great deeds done by King Pingnan have already spread throughout the three mountains and five mountains, and Kong Xuan has treated you like thunder." With such brilliant achievements in more than a year, not to mention his amazing performance on the battlefield, he is also amazing in terms of cultivation.

Deng Jiugong was overjoyed, hit the snake with the stick, and hurriedly said: "So, Kong Zongbing is willing to discuss friendship with Deng's peers and make friends."

Kong Xuan was stunned, this Deng Jiugong became too fast, he just said that he was called a friend of Taoism, now he wants to make a friend.Instinctively wanted to refuse, but seeing Deng Jiugong's look of anticipation, he couldn't bear it, so he nodded.

Deng Jiugong was overjoyed and said: "Friend Daoist is older than me, and his cultivation level is [-] miles higher than mine. From now on, I will be called Brother Kong."

Kong Xuan was a little dumbfounded, he had seen how powerful Deng Jiugong was, he was worthy of defeating Jiang Ziya repeatedly, designed to get rid of Yun Zhongzi, his ability to make friends was unmatched in the world.

Seeing Kong Xuan's silence, Deng Jiugong sighed in his heart, retreated as an advance, cupped his hands and said: "If fellow Taoist thinks that I am a high climber, then Deng will take back what he said just now, how about we are still friends."

Kong Xuan shook his head, and said: "My fellow Taoists have called me elder brother. If I don't accept it, won't it make people think that I, Kong Xuan, are hard to get close to if I don't accept it?" He has worked for Dashang for hundreds of years, and it was Kong Xuan who talked the most just now. once.

"Brother Kong, please drink tea."

Deng Jiugong waved his hand, and Kong Xuan said, "Brother Deng, please drink tea."

After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled. Deng Jiugong was extroverted and eloquent. He took this opportunity to talk about family affairs, which brought the relationship between the two closer.Seeing that the time was almost up, Deng Jiugong suggested again: "Brother Kong, you and I have similar personalities, and we are called brothers. How about we become friends of eight obeisances."

Kong Xuan was taken aback, but only after Deng Jiugong's explanation did he understand.Glancing at Deng Jiugong, he nodded with a smile.

Originally, he was throwing an olive branch to Kong Xuan, but who knew the result was unexpected, he became a friend of eight worshippers happily, Deng Jiugong was overjoyed, he was a little bit flustered when he came out of the General Military Mansion.
