Supreme Conceited God

"Gu Shuai, over the top of the mountain in front of you is the junction of Fangshan Mountain and Jieshan mountain. From there, there is a path buried by grass stems and leaves. You can directly reach Qingyuan stream by walking along the path." Zhai Ning wiped the sweat on his face and pointed to the mountain hundreds of meters in front of him.

"Is Qingyuan stream the source of Guangji river you said before?" Gu Qingcheng raised his right hand to signal the team to stop, turned over and got off the horned horse, looked at the steep mountain in front of him and asked.

"That's the source of Guangji river. After the source of Guangji River, there are many mountain streams and underground rivers flowing into it. That's what we saw before in Guangji county." Zhai Ning also got off his mount and came to the position of Gu Qingcheng.

"General Zhai, I always have a question in my heart. Guangji county is only a few days away from Fangshan. It's called relying on mountains to eat mountains and water to eat rivers. I have called many hunters in the mountains before. Although they are very familiar with mountains and forests, they don't know this path. How do you know?" Gu Qingcheng looked at Zhai Ning lightly and asked.

This problem has been hovering in Gu Qingcheng's mind for a long time. Since Zhai Ning said that he knew a path from Fangshan to Jieshan, she has been thinking about this problem. Later, she gathered many mountain people from nearby counties, but they didn't know the path. If it hadn't been mentioned in his letter to Lu que, Lu que made her believe Zhai Ning, It is absolutely impossible for her to cross the Guangji River by such means. It's not that she doesn't believe in Zhai Ning Xiang, but that she can't gamble on the life of the soldiers just by Zhai Ning's words.

"Gu Shuai doesn't believe in Zhai." Zhai Ning's face changed slightly

"It doesn't matter whether I believe you or not. As long as Lu believes you, it's enough. I know that since you can bring us here, it has proved that what you said is true. Originally, I shouldn't ask such a question, so as not to chill your heart. But I am really curious in my heart. Why don't even the hunters who travel in this mountain forest all the year round know that there is such a way, but you know that, you should satisfy my curiosity. " Gu Qingcheng asked, looking at the mountain scenery in front of him.

Zhai Ning's road is covered with fallen leaves and thorns. Most people would think that under the fallen leaves is the moist and soft woodland, which is not suitable for the army. But when you really walk on this road, you will find that the fallen leaves have just been buried under the horse's hooves, and there are solid ground below. Gu Qingcheng really can't figure out why there is such a road here, and Zhai Ning, who is not from Guangji County, actually knows.

Zhai Ning was stunned. He didn't expect Gu Qingcheng to be so frank. However, when he heard Lu Que's name, he felt warm in his heart. His plan to send a partial teacher to take a mountain road to bypass Guangji river was the one he offered after Yu Tianxiang and Gu Qingcheng stabilized the situation of Guangji county. However, Gu Qingcheng didn't approve of his plan, He understood that this was because of his demoted status. Even if he helped Fengxiang army win Guangji Dacang, he could not get all the trust of Gu Qingcheng.

However, what he didn't expect was that Lu que, who was in the capital of Daqian, actually agreed to his plan and asked his fiancee Gu Qingcheng to lead Fengxiang yunqi, the most elite of the Fengxiang army, to accompany him. No matter Lu Que's mind or Lu Que's trust in him, Zhai Ning had the idea to die for his confidant, You know, he worked for the Qiu family for many years and assisted Qiu ao as his deputy, but he didn't get Qiu Ao's trust. Otherwise, Qiu Ao would not listen to him and was transferred by Lu que.

"Gu Shuai, the reason why I know this road is that I walked this road myself more than ten years ago." Zhai Ning took a deep breath and flashed a trace of memory in his eyes.

"What? Did you walk by yourself? " Gu Qingcheng's eyes were full of surprise. Although the road could accommodate the army, it was not easy to walk. There were many wild animals in the mountain. Even the day before yesterday, a fierce beast appeared near their camp. If the fierce beast had not been deterred by the army atmosphere, only a few people would walk on the mountain road, it would have become a meal for him. Zhai Ning actually said that he had walked through such a dangerous road. You know, Zhai Ning is only about 30 years old now. How old was he more than ten years ago?

"Not bad." Zhai Ning nodded his head with a bitter smile, as if remembering the unforgettable memory. He said, "I was born in a poor family, and my parents passed away early. When I was young, in order to study, I went out to study when I was less than 15 years old. Gu Shuai may also know that it is not easy for poor children like me to study in Tianxing."

"Yes." Gu Qingcheng sighed and nodded his head. Tianxing is different from Daqian. Daqian has elementary school, township school, county school, county school, and nine university palaces. Both elementary school and township school are funded by the imperial court. Therefore, in Daqian, even rural farmers, hunters and fishermen have read some books and know many words. But Tianxing is different. Almost all of Tianxing's book knowledge is monopolized by aristocratic families, and almost 90% of the illiterate people in the folk. It's not easy for poor students to get ahead, not to mention to have books to read.

"In Tianxing, if I want to enter the private schools run by noble families, I have to pay a certain fee. One month's fee is almost the same as the three-month ration of a family of five. In those years, I worked for my master's family and studied at the same time. I often went hungry, and sometimes I was driven out because of insufficient payment. When I was driven out of the school again, I thought of hunting some leather goods for money in Fangshan. I didn't expect to be bitten by a poisonous snake. Fortunately, I met an old man who went into the mountain to collect herbs, and this road was taken by the benefactor of that year. "

Thinking of the old man who had passed away for many years, Zhai Ning sighed deeply and continued, "that time I followed my benefactor to pick a five hundred year old xuanxinlian in this mountain. After leaving the mountain, my benefactor sold it to a nobleman in Wangdu for a large sum of money. When he learned about my ambition, he gave me most of the money, I just finished my studies, and then I was valued by the Qiu family and became a disciple of the Qiu family. "

"So it is." Gu Qingcheng nodded with some emotion. Before, she only knew that Zhai Ning was from a poor family. Later, she became a member of the Qiu family to assist Qiu Ao. But she didn't expect that his way to study was so hard. If the old herb gatherer hadn't saved him at that time, he might have died of snake venom and become a skeleton under the fallen leaves of the vast mountains.

"Then you should thank the old man. Now you are not a member of the Qiu family, but a real general. You don't have to rely on others or look at others' faces. Although the appointment of the imperial capital has not come down yet, it is at least a powerful general of four grades. If you make great achievements in this battle, maybe you will be a marquis. At that time, the imperial court will build a mansion for you. Since the old man is kind to you, you can take him to the mansion to support him. " Gu Qingcheng said.

"Thank you for your advice, but I may not have the chance. The benefactor has been dead for many years." Zhai Ning said that again with tears in his eyes.

Later, after he became a general of the lion army, he went out of his way to find his benefactor. Only then did he know that the old man was a very famous doctor in the south of Tianxing and had passed away. Zhai Ning can't believe that his benefactor, who was walking on the mountain road a few years ago, has passed away. There must be something unknown. Only after some inquiry did he know the truth of the matter.

It turns out that a few years ago, the last generation of Tianxing king suddenly fainted during the court meeting, and the palace doctors had no idea. The queen ordered to invite Tianxing doctors to Beijing for treatment, and zhaining's benefactor was also among them. However, after entering the palace, the old man diagnosed that the vitality of the heavenly king was constantly being swallowed up and eliminated by an inexplicable power, some of which were like mistakes in practicing martial arts, and some were like strange poisons.

Although the old man did not find out what the king of heaven and stars was constantly devouring his life, his years of medical experience led him to judge that if there were no natural resources and treasures to continue his life, the king of heaven and stars would never live longer than five years. But also because of this sentence, the old man was charged with cursing the king and died in prison in vain.

Hearing Zhai Ning's story, Gu Qingcheng sighs deeply. Although the old man's death was caused by Tianxing royal family, it had nothing to do with Daqian, because it was the man who poisoned Tianxing king that killed the old man. Gu Qingcheng can imagine that the old man died in the prison, and there might be a shadow behind him, This old man may be the victim of Daqian's struggle with Tianxing, but she can't tell Zhai Ning about it.

Looking at Zhai Ning with a gloomy look, Gu Qingcheng said softly, "the old man gave you his belongings in those years, but he just took a fancy to your heart of studying. He didn't want to let such poor students as you lose their ambition. You should not let the old man down."

Speaking of this, Gu Qingcheng pauses and says, "as long as Daqian wins the battle, I can guarantee that every Tianxing people will get the same treatment as Daqian people. The poor students will no longer have to worry about reading, nor will they have to sell their dignity with human slaves. In Daqian, the poor students can go to school with xungui family and listen to the audience together. Among them, the best can even go to the cabinet to worship the prime minister and offer their wives and children. I won't tell anyone else. The most famous Duke of Wei was born in a poor family. "

"Thanks to Gu Shuai. Since Zhai Ning has chosen to submit to Da Qian, he will definitely serve to the death. He has no different intention." Zhai Ning bows down.

"If you are loyal, you'd better go to Qianyuan city and talk to Lu que." Gu Qingcheng helped Zhai Ning up and said, "to tell you the truth, if it wasn't for Lu Que's letter, I didn't dare to use your plan. I believe you are him, not me."

"But Gu Shuai himself led the army, and he was the most elite Fengxiang yunqi in the Fengxiang army. It can be seen that Gu Shuai still has some trust in me."

"I just believe in Lu Que's judgment. He is my future husband. Who can I believe if I don't believe him? And even if he's wrong, I'll make him right. " Said here, Gu Qingcheng eyes flashed a trace of cold, body exudes the momentum of the people, let stand beside her zhaining involuntarily back a few steps, eyes flashed a trace of horror.

Zhai Ning did not expect that Gu Qingcheng, who was only 20 years old, had such accomplishments. When he recalled the battle of hexingyuan nine months ago, Gu Qingcheng had absolutely no accomplishments or momentum at that time.

Zhai Ning swallowed a mouthful of water and looked at Gu Qingcheng with some awe. What he awed was not Gu Qingcheng's current cultivation, but Gu Qingcheng's cultivation speed. As long as people like Gu Qingcheng don't fall in advance, they will become the most powerful people, and even break through the legendary holy land, which is not impossible.

"Gu Shuai, it must be impossible for us to cross the mountain ahead before dark. Shall we continue to camp on the hillside or ~" Zhai Ning asked cautiously, but there was a flash of heat in Zhai Ning's eyes. Gu Qingcheng can have such accomplishments at such an age. What does Lu que, who is known as the first person of the young generation of Da Qian, look like? He hasn't seen him for more than half a year. What is the extent of his accomplishments.

Thinking of the war in southern Xinjiang, every military order from the capital of the Qianyuan Dynasty has the shadow of landing vacancy. To some extent, he can be regarded as a person of Lu vacancy. As long as he can show a certain value, he will be reused by Lu vacancy. Zhai Ning is very attentive to the current situation of Daqian. He knows that Lu Que's power is no less than that of the commanders of various armies. He even has it in some aspects. In the future Daqian court, there must be a place for him to land. As long as Lu que doesn't care about his demoted status, he will have less trouble in the future Daqian army.

"Messenger" Gu Qingcheng suddenly drank a Jiao.

"Yes." A cavalry with a flag on his back turned over and got off his horse and ran behind Gu Qingcheng.

"Let's go ahead and camp here today. Let's go to Xuanfeng camp to find water and hunt some wild animals. We'll repair here for two days and cross the mountain in the morning the day after tomorrow." At this point, Gu Qingcheng thought for a moment and said, "after the camp is built, let all the officers above the captain come to see me."

"No The herald saluted, turned and left.

"Why camp now, Gu Shuai?" Zhai Ning asked, puzzled, then looked up at the sky and said, "look at the sky now. We can get to the mountainside at sunset and have a rest there for one night. We can cross the mountain tomorrow morning, which can save a lot of time."

"No Gu Qingcheng shook his head. "There are so many wild animals in Fangshan, and there are even fierce animals. The border mountain in front of Fangshan is even higher than that of Fangshan. The forest is dense, and there are more wild animals. I can't damage the mouth of wild animals. I'll wait here for a companion to help me."

"Companion?" Zhai Ning muttered and frowned. He thought constantly in his heart, "how can this place have Gu Qingcheng's companions? Did Da Qian send the strong to come?" It's just that he's a little embarrassed, but he doesn't know whether to ask. If it's related to the secrets of Daqian's army, it's not good.

"My partner, you have seen the white wolf king at the beginning, and his wolves. With him in the mountains, no matter the fierce animals or the wild animals dare to make mistakes." Gu Qingcheng looks to the north. Through the spirit contract, she can feel that the white wolf king is approaching here. It will take about a day to meet her.

When she and Lu que returned to Beijing, they left the white wolf king in southern Xinjiang for half a year now. Gu Qingcheng really missed it. And through the contract, she can feel the breath of the white wolf king, more powerful than when she came out from xiyuanze. Although she didn't meet her, she couldn't accurately judge the grade of the white wolf king at this time, but according to the strength of the spirit, the white wolf king should soon reach the peak of the xuanjie stage, and it was there, plus its wolves, the fierce beasts in the mountains, so she didn't have to worry about it.

"Is that it?" Zhai Ning's heart trembled when he heard that he was defeated by Lu que. On the one hand, Lu que took advantage of the night to attack, and on the other hand, the wolves broke through his rear army. He would never forget the big and majestic white wolf, because it was the enemy of all cavalry, especially in the evening, the white wolf king and his wolves, It's a killing machine braver than the most elite army.

He thought that the white wolf had been left in the capital of Daqian before, but unexpectedly he came to southern Xinjiang and looked after Qingcheng. The scale of the wolf pack this time may even be more than that when he was in hexingyuan.

Gu Qingcheng took a look at Zhai Ning, curved his mouth and said, "yes, maybe you don't know. It was Bai Xia and his wolves who broke the three mountain fortress outside Ning'an County overnight. With him, we can have a good sleep at night."

Gu Qingcheng's seemingly casual tone made Zhai Ning's heart thump. Before Tianxing left Nanli, he was an ally. As a general of Tianxing, he naturally knew what happened to Sanshan fortress outside Ning'an county. It was a stone city in the mountains set up by Nanli and Ning'an county to defend Daqian.

And the reason why he no longer hesitated and decided to join Daqian was that the three mountain fortress of Nanli was broken and the thunder Eagle army had no choice but to surrender. After Tianxing lost the lion army, the thunder Eagle army of Nanli became a prisoner of war. The military strength of Tianxing and Nanli could no longer compete with Daqian. This was the general trend, and he could not go against the general trend.

But Zhai Ning didn't expect that it was the White Wolf and his pack that broke the three mountain fortress. This kind of fighting power is no less than that of the former army of mad lions who had stayed for several years before him, and even stronger. How many wolves are there in the pack at this time to have such fighting power.

"I'm going to walk around. You can go down and arrange the army. The foreign cabinet has orders. The army before you is still under your command. Although I have the power of command, it's not easy for me to intervene in specific affairs."

"No
