Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 346 The Monster in the River
"Let him in." Baili Wei announced the name of General Guo, and he exchanged glances with several generals, all of whom were surprised.

General Guo, this person is not from their two armies, but was dispatched by Emperor Zhaoyi from the five elite troops in the imperial capital to accompany them before the expedition.What was he trying to do with the military prostitute?
General Guo Shen came in, bowed to Baili Weiming with a smile, and the two mustaches under his nose were shiny.There was also a woman who came in with him. When they saw her attire, all the generals changed their faces.

One person slapped the table and said, "She's not one of us, take her down!"

But Baili Weiming raised his hand to stop him, "Wait a minute. General Guo, if you have anything to say, tell me first."

"Yes." General Guo Shen twitched his mustache with a smile, then glared at the woman, and reprimanded: "You ignorant girl, what did I teach you just now? When you see General Guanxi, you have to salute and serve me. Still not doing it?"

The woman blinked her eyes timidly, looked around the room, and then retracted her hands pinched nervously on the corners of her clothes, and blessed her body, "Hello, generals."

A general hurriedly said: "General Guo, our military prostitutes only have those faces, and there is no her at all. You are bringing an unknown person into the army without authorization. If something goes wrong, it will be a death penalty!"

General Guo Shen explained: "Didn't General Guanxi allow that military prostitute named Yu'er to resign and return home yesterday? Since there is one less person, he has to recruit another one. General Guanxi has done this for me, so I will I recruited this girl. She dances pretty well, and told me that she wants to serve General Kansai, and if General Kansai doesn’t dislike her, she is willing to stay with General Kansai all the time.”

Such rhetoric has aroused the strong warning of several generals. It should be known that the generals of Kansai are strict in governing the army, and the military prostitutes in the two armies are all prostitutes but not themselves.What is this general Guo Shen trying to achieve by placing a woman of unknown origin next to General Kansai?
A distempered general had already half-lifted the sword in its scabbard, and said angrily, "The general of Kansai has never been close to women, so this proposal should be avoided. Just send this girl to perform singing and dancing."

Baili Weiming thought for a while, and said: "All the generals are tired, so let's go back to rest first, and this girl stays."

"General Kansai!" The generals changed their faces.

"Military orders are like mountains, all go down." Baili Weiming's eyes sharpened.

Several generals were shut down, and they couldn't persuade them no matter how much they tried, so they had to retreat unwillingly, and all of them put their eyes on General Guo Shen's face.

In the room where there were only two people left, the cold air penetrated into the clothes like blood, making people feel chills.

The woman looked back at the door timidly, walked quickly to close the door, and then walked towards the windows, closing the windows tightly one by one.

When the room was completely sealed, Baili Weiming's voice was also heard: "You found me here on purpose, because you have something to say, I will listen to you."

The woman was startled, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Thank you, General, I... just don't know what to say."

"No hurry, do you want some tea?"

"No need." The woman stood there thinking for a while, and finally managed to speak up, "Let me first talk about that Guo Shenling just now, he has a wicked mind, general, you should pay attention."

Baili remained silent.

The woman continued: "I have something to ask the general to help me, can you take me to the battlefield?"

"What did you go to the battlefield for?"

"I want to see Jiu Ge." The woman said truthfully, "I know you are her big brother and you are very kind to her. Please believe me, I have no malicious intentions."

silent.

Both fell silent.

The woman nervously waited for Baili Weiming to speak.

After waiting for a long time, Baili Weiming said peacefully: "You are a girl who came to me alone. You must not be an ordinary person. You tell me the whole story, including your identity."

The woman's face showed joy, she nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll tell the general..."

An hour later.

The door was pushed open, the woman came out, and a soldier led her to the wing to stay.She nodded and smiled in thanks, said "I'm not busy with you", and then came to the door of the wing room, stood on the corridor and bent over, tidying up the corners of the skirt a little.

When he raised his head again, there was another person in front of him.The one with the gleaming mustache was none other than General Guo.

General Guo Shen smiled coldly and wretchedly: "Little girl, since you are willing to do things for our Majesty like me, then you have to do it well."

"I know." The woman replied obediently: "You asked me to cheat Baili Weiming's trust, and I did so, but he still can't fully trust me."

"Then keep working hard." General Guo Shen snorted coldly: "Your Majesty, don't worry about Baili Weiming, no matter whether Baili Weiming wins or loses in the end, it will be a dead end. So, I not only have to monitor Baili Weiming Li Weiming, I still need to find an opportunity to make meritorious deeds by myself, so that you can follow suit."

The woman timidly said: "So you want to add insult to injury..."

Two vicious eyes swept over, and the woman lowered her head in fear to avoid it.General Guo Shen whispered viciously: "Since you are on this boat, don't even think about going halfway! Serve Baili Weiming honestly. After three days, there will be important things for you to do. I promise, those After three days, the Zhou people will definitely be wiped out!"

"I see." The woman said these three words nervously. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that there seemed to be patrolling soldiers not far away, so she quickly gestured to General Guo.

General Guo Shen ran away immediately, and cast a warning look at the woman by the way...

In the next three days, between Shaocheng and Fancheng, the two sides tested each other and attacked each other several times, but all failed.

After Qiuhang put all the food and grass in place, he hurriedly withdrew from the front line and returned to Lanzhuang to prepare for the next round of food and grass.Lanzhuang has money, especially the money he earned from dumping orchids in the past, which is more than enough to buy food and grass from rich merchants from various countries.In this way, there is no need for ordinary people in the state of Zhou to come and support them.

Shaocheng is next to the Danjiang River, and the water source is also directly extracted from the Danjiang River, so there will be no shortage.When Baili Jiuge is free, he will go to the Dan River with the soldiers who fetch water, and help them break the ice to fetch water.

On the night of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, Baili Jiuge saw the bright and pure moonlight, and with a thought, he put the sleeping Jiner in his arms into the cradle, greeted Mo Li, and walked out of Shaocheng alone , Walking towards the Danjiang River.

The snow has not yet melted, and the whirling snowy night reflects the moonlight, and the lonely shadow of the city gate seems heavy and lonely.

The quiet feeling is like smudged ink in the heart lake of Baili Jiuge, so quiet, quiet and peaceful, as if this is not a battlefield, but a landscape courtyard in the suburbs of Xiqi.

Walking to the bank of the Danjiang River, Baili Jiuge looked at the ice and snow river, and was suddenly startled.

Not right.

This river water...why does it seem to be the wrong color?

I remember that it was fine during the day. Could it be because of the reflection of light in the snowy night at night that she felt that the Danjiang water seemed to be glowing red?
Baili Jiuge approached a little closer, trying to get a better look. At this moment, the ground shook violently, and high water splashed suddenly on the river surface, and a large piece of ice exploded.

what happened?Baili Jiuge looked at it in surprise, and gasped when he saw it.

A...

"Monster!" These two words blurted out.

It was something Baili Jiuge had never seen before. It looked like a white silkworm, but it was bigger than a white elephant. Because it was so huge, it was difficult for Baili Jiuge to observe it carefully, and his heart was seized by fear. live.

What the hell is this monster!She really suspected that she was wrong.

A thought suddenly flashed in his mind, Baili Jiuge remembered the gluttony Gu he had seen in the past.That kind of terrifying Gu worm will eat human skin from the inside out, and then its body will keep growing, until it will burst and die when it becomes frighteningly large...

The gluttony Gu is very similar to the monster in front of him except for its color.Could it be that the monster in front of him is also a Gu insect?

At this moment, the white monster turned its head and stared at Baili Jiuge, with eyes like red lanterns, which made Baili Jiuge sweat profusely.

She took two steps back, and unexpectedly, the monster leaned over, its body was still in the water, but its head was in front of Baili Jiuge, and it was about to stick to her face!

Baili Jiuge almost screamed.

She didn't know how she held back, even though her clothes were drenched in cold sweat, her eyes were still staring at the magnified monster's face in front of her with clear and innocent eyes.

They looked at each other for only a moment.

It was also at this moment that the monster slammed into Baili Jiuge, and she immediately performed lightness kung fu, retreated sideways, and moved seven feet away.

Standing still, Baili Jiuge sneered: "I have been in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and I have never heard of such a thing growing in the Danjiang River. If it is really Xianggu, who is behind the scenes? Hurry up come out!"

No echo.

Baili Jiuge pulled out his dagger, shielded it in front of him, and shouted: "Who is hiding behind? Is it Liao Xiying?" Taking a deep breath, he said: "Whoever you are, listen to me! Right now there is a war here, if you don't want to be affected, you should go farther away, if you dare to make any plans, I will definitely fight you tit for tat!"

The white monster didn't move at all, Baili Jiuge's eyes were clear and firm, she was waiting, she wanted to see if this monster was a manipulative Gu worm!

In the dark, a woman's voice sounded softly. Although it was very soft and ethereal, it was still clearly heard.

"Abai, come back to my place."

This voice made Baili Jiuge shake his head in shock.

Did she get it wrong?Impossible, this voice is, it is...it turned out to be a chilling cicada!

How could Han Chan come here and manipulate such an unimaginable Gu worm, what are they trying to do by the Dan River...

"Han Chan!" Baili Jiuge shouted, and ran towards the direction of the sound.
