Chapter 695 News from the Snow Country People
The next morning, just as Yu Aqi left, Lu Lin Nan Ge actually lifted the curtain and walked in.
Chu Xiaomu knew that she was looking for Aqi, so he told her that Aqi had just left the tent and went to the checkpoint. If she went out to chase him now, she should be able to call him back.
But Lu Lin Nan Ge said, "I'm not here to find Aqi, I'm here to find you." As he said this, he found a stool and sat down.
Chu Xiaomu was very surprised and asked, "Looking for me?"
Lu Linnan Ge said bluntly: "My father heard about you and Cheng Huang, and asked you to visit my home."
"Your father...what does he want from me?" Chu Xiaomu asked.
Lu Linnan Ge frowned and said, "He was the one who came to you, not me. How would I know what he was going to do?"
Chu Xiaomu already knew that she was a person who would never drag her feet. His question just now was indeed a bit stupid, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Lu Lin Nan Ge asked, "When are you going to go over?"
Chu Xiaomu thought about learning sword from Ding Qi, so he said, "I'm afraid it won't be possible in the next two days. It will have to be at least after the third day."
Lu Lin Nan Ge did not ask his reason and said, "Okay, I will wait for you at the gate of Lu Lin Palace in three days."
Chu Xiaomu thought to himself that what I said was "at least after the third day", not that I would definitely have time after three days, but since this was an invitation from the city lord, he was very lenient in not asking me to go right away, so how could I delay it any longer? He had no choice but to agree.
Lu Linnan Ge stared at his chest for a few seconds and asked, "Are you healed?"
Chu Xiaomu replied: "I have almost recovered after taking the medicine given by Aqi."
Lu Lin Nan Ge nodded, said nothing more, and glanced around the tent.
Aqi's central army tent was larger than the average sergeant's tent, but it was only about 20 feet wide, and a small half was separated by a green cloth for Xiaoying to sleep in. He and Chu Xiaomu made a bed on the floor in the other half, and in the morning they rolled up the mat to make room for walking.
Lu Lin Nan Ge obviously noticed the small section that was separated, and guessed that Xiaoying lived there. He frowned and said, "The Bicheng Army does not allow women to live in the barracks. If they are caught, they will be beaten with fifty military sticks. Don't you know that?"
Chu Xiaomu said helplessly: "Of course I know, but..." He didn't say the rest of the words, thinking that there was nothing I could do. You can't ask me to drive him away, right?
Lu Linnan snorted and said, "Yu Aqi can cultivate his spiritual power, but how can he stop tens of thousands of red soldiers if he manages the army like this?"
Chu Xiaomu couldn't help but feel secretly angry, thinking to himself, Xiaoying came to Yutuo City with you and I, you know that, if she doesn't live in the military tent with me, where do you want her to live?
Lu Lin Nan Ge said without much thought, "Bring her to my place tomorrow. There are many empty rooms in Lu Lin Palace."
Chu Xiaomu thought to himself that this is what you said. I said I am Aqi's friend, so I am your friend. This is what a friend should do. So he said, "This is the best. Thank you very much, Miss Lu Lin."
Lu Lin Nan Ge stood up and said, "Okay, I have delivered my message. We can talk about the rest tomorrow!" He turned around and was about to leave the tent.
Suddenly, there was the sound of galloping horses. A man got off his horse outside the tent and ran in hurriedly. It was Aqi.
Ah Qi called out, "Xiao Mu, Xiao Mu..." Suddenly he saw his neighbor Nan Ge was there too. He was visibly stunned for a moment and said, "Nan Ge, you're here too. That's great."
Chu Xiaomu asked: "Are you looking for me? What's the matter?"
Aqi said happily: "The soldiers reported that they have found the traces of the Snow Country people!"
Chu Xiaomu immediately became nervous and asked, "Where are they?"
"It's near Yanshui Cave, about 200 miles from here. If the horse runs fast, it can be there in two hours!"
Chu Xiaomu ran outside the tent and whistled. Cheng Huang came running over. He turned around and shouted, "Aqi, then take me there quickly!"
Lu Linnan Ge looked at Aqi in disbelief and said, "I have been looking for them for so long and couldn't find them, but you actually found them."
Ah Qi chuckled and said, "In terms of ability, I am a little bit worse than you, but in terms of luck, I am a little bit better than you."
Lu Linnan Ge frowned and said, "What a smooth talk."
At this time, Xiaoying also climbed out of bed. Knowing that Chu Xiaomu and the others were going to look for the Snow Country people, she said, "Brother Xiaomu, I want to go too!"
Chu Xiaomu knew that her mount could not run fast, so he simply pulled her onto the back of the Chenghuang horse and rode with her. The white-haired old ape said that not everyone could ride the Chenghuang, but that didn't mean that no one except Chu Xiaomu could ride it. Besides, today's matter was more urgent than ever before, so he couldn't care less.
Xiaoying was pulled onto the horse by Chu Xiaomu, and Cheng Huang did not resist and let the two of them sit on his back.
