don't fight the general

Chapter 23

Huzi turned his head and looked at Yan Jing, as if he was judging what he said.This child is indeed a little shy when facing people other than Cui Wei, especially Yan Jing's slightly raised, somewhat indifferent eyebrows, and he can't help being afraid. He hides behind Cui Wei to confirm Yan Jing After Jing couldn't see herself, she asked Cui Wei in a low voice: "Brother, brother, is it okay?"

Cui Wei turned his head and glanced at Yan Jing, but the other party still maintained the posture just now, with no expression on his face.Cui Wei thought for a while, then patted Huzi's head with a smile: "Then go and stand beside that brother."

After Cui Wei finished speaking, the two looked at him at the same time, neither of them looked very willing, but no one refuted them, and they stared at Cui Wei together as if they were in a stalemate. Jing glanced, then took a deep breath and walked towards Yan Jing as if mustering up her courage.

Yan Jing looked at the child's timid look, and remembered how he and Cui Wei were affectionate just now, and suddenly wanted to pull him to ask how he was inferior to that person, but in the end he just snorted softly, Seeing Huzi come to their side, the two turned their gazes to Cui Wei.

Being stared at by two people, one big and one small, Cui Wei was a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and glanced at the sword in his hand, and settled down. There was a frightening light, but in those eyes that were still shy, there was only firmness left.

Yan Jing stood up straight unconsciously, and unconsciously lowered his arms that were hugging his chest. He didn't even realize that he was almost holding his breath, his eyes firmly locked on the young man, Staring at his every move, every move.

Being in Tian's family, Yan Jing has seen countless martial arts masters, including the masters who were in charge of teaching martial arts to the princes at the beginning, all of them are extremely skilled.But Cui Wei is different from them. He doesn't have any complicated and gorgeous movements, but his moves are neat. Yan Jing believes that if there is an opponent in front of him at this moment, he will have been killed by now.

This young man's astonishing martial arts is not from any famous teacher, but from countless times of life and death in the enemy's battle.

Yan Jing was watching intently, when footsteps came from behind him, he looked sideways slightly, saw the guard holding his sword and returning it, and couldn't help looking at Cui Wei in the courtyard, with surprise and admiration.Yan Jing raised his chin in the direction of Cui Wei: "How many tricks can you survive in his hands?"

He didn't ask if he was Cui Wei's opponent, but directly asked how many moves he could pass, making the guards feel a little bit ashamed. He turned his head and looked at the boy under the moon again, thinking: "If you fight hard, It might last a while."

"Well," Yan Jing responded without further words. At this time, Cui Wei had already withdrawn his sword momentum, and when he raised his eyes, he found that there were more people looking at him. He couldn't help but scratched his hair, and said in a low voice: "So be it."

Huzi on the side just came back to his senses, kept clapping his hands, and almost jumped forward and grabbed Cui Wei's clothes: "Brother, you are so amazing!"

Cui Wei retracted the long sword into its sheath, touched the top of Huzi's head, slightly bent his eyes, and smiled.

Yan Jing resumed the indifferent posture of leaning on the pillar with his hands crossed over his chest. He glanced at the guard, motioned him to send the long sword over, and said, "This sword has never been stained with blood. He can see it if he wants to." Show him."

Cui Wei glanced at him in surprise, raised his hand to take the sword from the guard, turned it over and over to see it first.If compared with this sword, his own does look a bit shabby.The sword in his hand was actually a little too gorgeous in Cui Wei's eyes, but he couldn't help but look up at Yan Jing, and it didn't look so conspicuous when the King Rui held it in his hand.

Cui Wei took the blade out of its sheath, saw the familiar blade and remembered that he had actually dealt with this sword before, about ten strokes?Thinking of what happened in the desert that day, Cui Wei was still a little embarrassed, and he couldn't go to see Yan Jing again, so he squatted down and showed the blade of the sword in front of Huzi: "Be careful, don't scratch your hands."

I don't know whether he was frightened by Cui Wei's reminder, or because he was afraid of the owner of the sword, Huzi cautiously stretched out his finger, hesitated again and again, and finally just tapped the sword with his fingertip, and then retracted it like a hot hand. Finger, looked up to Cui Wei: "Brother, when I grow up in the future, can I also have my own sword?"

"If you like it, of course you can." Cui Wei pushed the blade back into the sheath, put his hands back into the hands of the guards, and followed Hu Zi to sit down on the small stool in front of the house, "It's just that martial arts is nothing compared to other things. suffer a lot."

Huzi blinked, as if thinking about it, then looked at Cui Wei, and asked in doubt, "Brother, aren't you afraid of suffering?"

"When I was young, I thought practicing martial arts was a lot of fun. Because I liked it, I didn't feel bitter." Cui Wei didn't seem to think there was any problem in communicating with a child so seriously, maybe even because the other party was a child. He became more comfortable and talked a lot more, "As for what I'm talking about now, it's probably because I know this is what I should do."

Huzi shook his head, obviously not understanding what he meant, Cui Wei didn't care, and smiled at him: "Anyway, as long as you really like it, you will be willing to do it, and you will definitely do it well."

After all, Huzi is a child. Although he listened to Cui Wei's words, his attention was distracted by other things the next moment. He looked up at the night sky above his head and asked, "Brother, why are there no stars tonight?"

"Huh?" Cui Wei didn't care about his sudden digression, so he raised his head, looked around seriously, and then replied, "Maybe it's because of the moon. My sister said at the beginning that if the moon If it’s too bright, it’s hard to see the stars.”

"why?"

Cui Wei tilted his head and thought for a while: "I don't know, sister never said."

Yan Jing just stood at the door, and listened to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but look up at the night sky, wondering if she was in a different mood tonight, even if she only saw the moon hanging alone in the sky, He didn't feel down, and then, the next moment, Yan Jing sneezed.

Startled by the sound of sneezing, the big and small people in front all turned their heads. Huzi looked at Yan Jing, and whispered to Cui Wei: "Why is this brother still standing here?"

Cui Wei was also very surprised in his heart. He thought that according to this person's previous personality, he would have gone back to the room impatiently, so he just talked with Huzi without any scruples. After listening to it, the man felt a little embarrassed. In order to hide his emotions, he raised his hand and scratched his ear.

After Yan Jing sneezed and heard Huzi's conversation, she couldn't help but frowned. She really couldn't figure out why this kid was obedient and clingy in front of Cui Wei, and he always had this attitude when he mentioned himself.Obviously, I didn't say anything excessive today, and even took into account the face of the old village chief, and even put on a gentle expression, how could it be so scary?

Seeing him rubbing his nose with his hand, the guard behind Yan Jing couldn't help persuading him: "My lord, you've only been exposed to the rain today, and the night wind is cold, so be careful of catching a cold."

Yan Jing rubbed her fingers, looked at the big one and the young one who had turned back to continue chatting, and finally responded: "Then go back, we will continue on the road tomorrow, and it's better to rest earlier today."

The guard nodded in response, and when walking back behind Yan Jing, he couldn't help but glance at Cui Wei again, and said to himself: "This Xuan Pinghou is really different from the rumors."

"What's the difference?"

"Ah?" The guard sighed casually by himself, but he didn't expect to get a response from Yan Jing. He couldn't help being stunned, and it took him a long time to think of it and replied, "It is rumored that Xuan Pinghou's martial arts is high-powered and cold-blooded, and he is particularly difficult to contact. But seeing how patient he is with the kid right now, is he kind?"

Yan Jing glanced at him, but unexpectedly did not refute, he just turned his head to look at the two people who were still sitting in the yard, his eyes especially stayed on Cui Wei's back for a while.

No matter how amazing Cui Wei's fighting power is on the battlefield, and how many military achievements he has made over the years, after all, he is only a half-grown boy. From Yan Jing's point of view, he may even feel that the boy's shoulders are a bit thin. He looked a little thin, and if he hadn't experienced it himself, he couldn't believe how powerful this man was.

I don't know what bad memories came to mind, Yan Jing snorted softly, and glanced at the guard behind him: "You don't have to follow me anymore, go and rest."

"The two subordinates have already made arrangements, and they will take turns protecting your safety tonight."

Yan Jing smiled lightly: "In such a barren place, who knows who this king is, and what can be protected. Besides, with the man in the yard around, it probably couldn't be safer tonight."

It was the first time in Yan Jing's life to stay in this kind of small farmyard, and he even wondered if this was the last time.The village head and his family went back to their rooms after dinner, so the whole yard gradually became quiet, only the sounds of poultry and livestock moving could be heard, and occasionally the two who hadn’t returned to their rooms to rest insisted on watching in the yard. The whisper of the Moon Man.

Because the charcoal basin was burning, the room was filled with warmth. Although the bedding was not new, it looked very clean.Yan Jing took off her outer robe, lay down on the couch, wrapped herself tightly with a quilt, and then let out a satisfied sigh.

Obviously did nothing, and even lived in the same yard with discordant people, but Yan Jing rarely felt a bit of peace and harmony.The long-lost sleepiness hit him, he yawned, and then slowly closed his eyes.

This time it must be a good night's dream.
