Chapter 210 You are so likable!
Chapter 210 You are so likable!
It is unknown how much Kan Shi, who was still a teenager back then, has grown to now, and Long Feiguang really can't tell.
Even now, he and Zong Yanli have never fought each other again. Long Feiguang feels that he probably cannot beat Zong Yanli...
"General, if you fight against this man, you must be careful." Long Feiguang looked up at Zong Yanli and said seriously.
"Yeah." Zong Yanli lowered his eyes and nodded.
Kan Shi.
Zong Yanli's thoughts drifted far away. In his previous life, when Zong Yanli led his troops to invade the north, he had fought a battle with him. However, it was not their first acquaintance. Kan Shi was a righteous and generous man. In order to spy on the enemy, Zong Yanli disguised himself as a merchant and entered the territory of Lu.
Unexpectedly, she had a conflict with others as soon as she entered the city. The people of Lu saw that she was a foreigner and many of them wanted to rob her.
Just as Zong Yanli was about to make a move, he ran into Kan Shi. This guy rushed up and beat him up, then turned around and looked at Zong Yanli and asked, "Is the girl hurt?"
Zong Yanli: …………
She was clearly dressed in men's clothing, but Kan Shi could see through her disguise at a glance, shocking Zong Yanli to the core. The accompanying soldiers thought that Zong Yanli was mistaken for a woman and laughed. Zong Yanli gritted her teeth and angrily scolded Kan Shi: "I am a man!"
Kan Shi was stunned, looked Zong Yanli up and down, and curled his lips as if he was a little weird.
In the end, she apologized with a dry laugh, but her eyes clearly said, I know you are a woman disguised as a man, I'm just too lazy to expose you.
Kan Shi invited them to drink and eat meat, and showed them the Lu style. The generous man seemed very proud of his country, and wanted to praise his hometown with thousands of words. It was a pity...
They were destined not to be friends, and they met again on the battlefield.
When Zong Yanli was ready to go into battle, wearing military armor, a helmet and a visor and standing in front of Kan Shi, the moment their eyes met, Kan Shi's face suddenly darkened. The two men, who had never exchanged their names, finally learned each other's names at this moment.
Seeing that he had been recognized, Zong Yanli simply said, "Since I have drunk two jars of your wine, I will let you have three moves."
Kan Shi curled his lips: "I don't hit women."
"..."
Zong Yanli couldn't help laughing when he recalled the past, but there was a sense of helplessness and complexity in that laugh.
This was probably the most like-minded friend that the young Zong Yanli had ever met, but in the end...
Zong Yanli fought with him for more than ten battles. Finally, three months later, in the Battle of Lingwen, Zong Yanli beheaded him, which sounded the clarion call for victory in the Northern Expedition.
She could not forget that battle, nor could she forget the man who also stood firm in defending his country.
It was during this battle that although Zong Yanli cut off Kan Shi's head, she was also seriously injured, with her limbs and three ribs broken. The horrible bloodstain on her neck was the medal of her victory.
It was almost, she almost lost.
"General, are you worried about the enemy general?" After everyone in the tent left, Wen Nian stayed behind and saw that Zong Yanli's brows were full of worry, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, somewhat." Zong Yanli clenched her fists slightly. Just at that moment, she had the idea of secretly deploying killers and assassins to kill Kan Shi first. Since they were destined to be enemies, why not strike first?
"I'll kill him for the general." Wen Nian's eyes flashed with some viciousness, and he took the initiative to speak.
Zong Yanli raised his head after hearing Wen Nian's words, met his eyes and smiled: "You may not be able to defeat him."
Wen Nian glanced sideways: "General, do you know this person well?"
Zong Yanli kept silent, stood up and said, "Come with me to the city tomorrow to buy some things to send back home. Since Guang He is going to start learning martial arts, I should also prepare protective gear and swords for him, and choose a colt to raise well for him to drive."
Although Zong Yanguanghe was her adopted son, he did not grow up with her, and he did not fulfill any responsibilities as her nominal father. Although he was helpless because he had to fight everywhere and could not return home, Zong Yanli still felt a little guilty.
Since it is impossible to make up for the loss emotionally, we can only provide material support.
She had never had children, so she didn't know what to do. She just thought that when she was little, her favorite thing to do was to ride horses and enjoy hunting.
We have all grown up as children, so just follow their example!
The next day, after arranging military affairs and anticipating that the enemy would not challenge him again, Zong Yanli said hello to his father, changed into warrior attire, and took Wen Nian and Gao Feilin to Haiyuan Town near the Juqu River.
When he stepped into the town, he saw many people bustling about, bartering or selling things, a lively scene that made Zong Yanli feel a little dazed.
It seemed as if last night I was still seeing the scene of two armies fighting, blood and flesh flying, and the chaos of war. Turning around, I saw the people living in peace, and I inexplicably felt a little sad.
Jewelry and silk are rare in this place. What is sold are weapons and protective gear, as well as some daily necessities, ordinary and common food, clothing and daily necessities. The most expensive things are the weapons in the weapon shop, as well as protective gear, armor and horse gear.
"Bah! What is this food?" There was some noise coming from the front, as if there was a farce near a wine stall. Hearing the sound of wine jars breaking, Zong Yanli looked sideways.
"You call this wine?" The man who raised his hand and smashed the bowl angrily said with a muscular body and eyes full of anger: "You have obviously mixed water into this wine!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" The innkeeper was furious when he heard this, and the two sides quarreled for a while.
Zong Yanli put down the protective gear in his hand and walked over doubtfully. Before he got close, he saw Sang Caijie who was also walking over.
Sang Caijie was also startled when he saw Zong Yanli, then he lowered his head and leaned over to whisper, "General, why are you here?"
Zong Yanli shook his head slightly without saying anything, and then he heard Sang Caijie pointing at the wine shop surrounded by the crowd in front and said, "Those people are from the north, and they came here under the banner of wine merchants. I think they are not good people, so I was just about to wait and see, and then I started to tie them up."
As the two were talking, they heard a loud noise coming from the wine stall. Then the crowd retreated. Amid the exclamations of the crowd, they saw a man being thrown out.
"You profiteer!" The burly man who was stomping on the tables and chairs with a big knife pointed at the nose of the liquor stall owner and cursed.
Zong Yanli looked at the retreating crowd and finally saw the chaos inside. He saw the man with a dark face standing next to the wine jar. The familiar eyebrows and eyes made Zong Yanli stunned for a moment. He was a little surprised and surprised, thinking, this man is really a bit of a fool...
The person being surrounded was none other than Kan Shi.
He was not handsome, but had the rough and masculine look of northern men. His tall frame made him very oppressive when he stood.
It’s really interesting. In the previous life, it was Zong Yanli who was besieged, but now it is Kan Shi who is besieged.
Zong Yanli couldn't help but wonder, is this the inevitable fate?
"A guest is a guest. Why is the shopkeeper so aggressive?" Zong Yanli walked in, looked at the broken wine jars and bowls on the ground, reached out from his arms and took out an ingot of silver as compensation.
"Girl, you don't have to stand up for me." Kan Shi, who was standing nearby, stretched out his hand to block Zong Yanli and said, "This black-hearted profiteer used watered-down wine to fool people! I must ask for an explanation today!"
"..." Zong Yanli burst into laughter when he heard Kan Shi's familiar name.
"You are such an unreasonable man! You said you wanted to taste the wine, but this wine is not mixed with water! It is pure wine, not strong liquor..." The wine merchant was also anxious. He did not charge more money. There were many soldiers and generals coming and going in this area. The sake brewed by the wine merchant specially had a light taste and was sold at that price.
Although alcohol is prohibited in the army, there are still people who drink secretly but are afraid of being discovered. Where there is business opportunity, there is trade route. Even wine mixed with water is sold.
Zong Yanli knew the trick after just a little thought, and immediately turned to look at Kan Shi and said, "This brother must be from another place. We have many kinds of wine in the south, and this kind of light wine is also a market. I think you are not used to it."
"Since you are a guest from afar, I would like to invite you brothers to find a place with good wine." Zong Yanli laughed, turned around and motioned Sang Caijie to stay and clean up the mess, then raised his hand to invite them and left with Kan Shi.
"What a generous girl!" Kan Shi was greatly impressed and looked at Zong Yanli and thanked her quickly.
Zong Yanli couldn't help but grit his teeth, took a step back and said, "Brother, you are joking. I am a man."
Kan Shi was stunned when he heard this, turned his head and looked at Zong Yanli seriously, and finally his eyes fell on her face. After a long while, he muttered: "You people in the south are really different..."
Zong Yanli didn't say much to him. He took him to find a tavern and ordered some food and wine. He looked up and saw that the burly man standing behind Kan Shi had no intention of sitting down. He knew in his heart that this man must be a personal soldier of Kan Shi.
"Cough cough." Kan Shi coughed repeatedly, then reached out and pulled the sturdy man to sit down together.
"Try this wine, I think it suits your taste." Zong Yanli said nothing more, and reached out to pour wine for Kan Shi.
Kan Shi didn't hesitate, he picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, smacked his lips and raised his eyebrows and said: "It's not bad, but it's not as strong as the wine in my hometown!"
Zong Yanli seemed to have guessed that he would make such an evaluation, and smiled and said, "Really? This is the best wine we have."
Kan Shi was shocked: "That's it?"
"Girl... cough! Brother, you really have never tasted good wine!" Kan Shi is a wine lover. He can't help but talk a lot when talking about wine. He mentioned the good wine brewed by his mother at home. The taste is so good that people want to have another bowl after drinking a bowl!
Zong Yanliduan looked at Kan Shi and asked him about his hometown with a smile. Sure enough, when Kan Shi mentioned his hometown, he had endless praises for it, from the Spring and Autumn Period to the white snow in winter, to the silly roe deer in the snow, to every detail of his childhood.
When they talked about funny things, they couldn't help laughing out loud, then raised their wine glasses to clink together and drink them all.
"Sir, it's time for us to go back." Even when the wine jars were empty and the dishes were spread out, and the afterglow of the setting sun was shining, Kan Shi was still reluctant to leave. Hearing the urging of the personal soldiers beside him, Kan Shi finally stopped talking and looked at Zong Yanli hesitantly, as if he wanted to tell his name but had something to hide.
"Miss, if we have the chance to meet again in the future, I will tell you my name." Kan Shi stared at Zong Yanli's face, couldn't help but smiled and said, "You are really likable!"
"Hahaha!" After Kan Shi laughed loudly and spoke frankly, he led his horse and left the city with his personal soldiers.
Zong Yanli stood in front of the tavern, paused as he looked at Kan Shi's departing back, and a hint of gloom appeared in his eyes.
Sang Caijie came out from the small door at the side, stood beside Zong Yanli and asked in a low voice: "General, should we kill him or not?"
There was a strange look in Zong Yanli's eyes. He was silent for a long time before he finally closed his eyes and said, "Let's do it."
Although she harbored selfish motives, she really could not abandon her country and the people. Call her despicable, but since she was reborn with great hope, how could she not be selfish and only care about herself? Those who accomplish great things do not care about trivial matters, and she also has things she wants to protect!
"Kill him regardless of the consequences." Zong Yanli opened his eyes again. His eyes were clear and calm, and there was a hint of ruthlessness between his brows.
"Kan Shi, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless. We are enemies as we serve different masters. A full meal is my last kindness." Zong Yanli turned around and ordered Wen Nian to bring the horse. He ordered Sang Caijie to send people to obstruct the assassination, and at the same time dispatched people to set an ambush on Kan Shi's route out of the city.
Since we are setting up a killing array, we must not show mercy!
At that time, Kan Shi had no idea that he had been targeted. He smiled and said, "Shu Ge, this girl from the southern land is really interesting. I think she is also a martial artist!"
The accompanying personal soldier lowered his head slightly and said something that was difficult to explain: "General, maybe he is a man?"
"Impossible!" Kan Shi glared and quickly retorted: "I never make the mistake with my eyes. Although she is dressed as a man, she is a real woman!"
"To judge a person, you have to look at his bones. She is a woman." Kan Shi said with great certainty, grinning and saying, "I will come to see her next time. It is so interesting to get along with her."
"...General, this is where the enemy is. If we reveal our whereabouts and are discovered by the enemy, it will be very dangerous. We cannot come here again." Shuger could not help but frown and admonished, "I just saw many soldiers patrolling in the city, and they seemed to be very strict."
Kan Shi sighed in his heart, as if he was also feeling sorry for how rare it was to meet someone he liked so much. How come she was a woman from an enemy country?
His mind raced, his eyes brightened, and he said, "Shu Ge, what do you think of me secretly kidnapping her?"
Shu Ge looked at his general with a puzzled look, and finally said simply: "General, why don't you wait until you break through Shanping Pass before looking for her?"
Kan Shi immediately frowned and said, "If she knew that I was the enemy general who broke into her house, she would definitely not treat me well, and might even fight me with swords!"
"If the general kidnaps her, will she not fight back with sword?" Sugar asked with glaring eyes.
"..."
Kan Shi was speechless for a moment. They were already in an enemy situation, and no matter what they did, they would be on the opposite side.
Kan Shi sighed in his heart, as if regretting his love that had not yet taken root. But just as this thought came to his mind, Kan Shi keenly discovered that someone seemed to be following them in the dark. He instantly put away his chaotic thoughts and focused his senses around, noticing the vague sight coming from outside the city.
