Chapter 274 Reunion

Zuo Chen deliberately asked Donkey Master to stop, then got off the donkey cart and came to the two little kids.

At this moment, the two little kids were much more alert than before they fell asleep. They jumped directly from the cart and stood on Zuo Chen's left and right.

They looked at each other, and then spoke crisply to Zuo Chen:

"Taoist Master."

"Ah."

Zuo Chen nodded in response.

Caiyi also jumped out from the side, and kept pointing at her face in front of the two little kids. The little kids naturally understood what Caiyi meant, and said sweetly:

"Sister Caiyi!"

Caiyi almost laughed out snot bubbles.

"Have you two learned to speak?" Mr. Donkey asked curiously.

"Yeah." Jin Tong said, "Just now when I was sleeping, my sister and I felt like a pot of water was poured down our heads, and our whole bodies suddenly became transparent, our brains were enlightened, and we could speak."

"This is similar to how I felt back then." That's how Donkey felt when he learned to speak.

"But we don't have a name yet. I wonder if the Master could give us one?" The Jade Girl asked in a crisp voice.

Zuo Chen thought for a few seconds.

He's actually a bit bad at naming.

I wanted to just call him Qingfeng Mingyue, but I felt like all the Taoist children were called this name, which was too unoriginal, so I just took a character from each of the Golden Boy and Jade Girl.

"Your name is Jinfeng, and your name is Yuyue. Is that okay?"

"Thank you for the name, Taoist priest."

The two little kids said.

After they accepted the name, some changes seemed to have taken place in them. For a moment, they seemed to be completely transparent and no longer treasures, but truly "living people".

Zuo Chen could also see the changes in the two dolls and thought:
We have to come up with a set of exercises suitable for the two kids to practice as soon as possible.

Putting this matter on the agenda, Zuo Chen also planned to teach the two little kids some basics first, so that they can study and practice more.

After giving them the names, they walked together on the road. It was lively and interesting to see the two little kids making noises.

Taking advantage of this time, Zuo Chen tried out the abilities of the two dolls.

It has something to do with the treasures they swallowed before. Jinfeng is good at ice and Yuyue is good at fire. However, the quality of the precious jade that Jinfeng ate at that time was poor, and now the basic spiritual energy in his body is also lacking a lot compared to Yuyue.

However, Jin Feng himself did not care. In his words, "There are so many people around me who can fight and will always accompany my sister. Why should I do it myself?"

Caiyi admired Jinfeng’s attitude very much, and then both of them were hit on the head by Zuo Chen.

It’s okay to cling to someone powerful, but don’t cling to them to the point of ruining yourself. After all, there are still some things that you have to deal with yourself.

However, Jinfeng and Yuyue are equally talented. After Zuo Chen helps them figure out the cultivation techniques, as long as they practice diligently, their Taoism should improve quite quickly.

In this way, Zuo Chen had an additional job of teaching children during his journey, but he enjoyed it very much.

Two days passed like this.

Finally, early in the morning of the third day, a row of tents appeared on the distant horizon.

It’s closed in Kyoto.

……

At the border of Kyoto, many of Kyoto's elite troops were on high alert. The generals guarding the border leaned their hands on the long wall, with cold sweat on their foreheads.

Looking up ahead, on a vast plain connecting to Youzhou, dense crowds of people formed into an army with tremendous momentum!
King Wei's army has arrived at Kyoto Pass!
The Kyoto general guarding Youzhou Pass was not too old. He was just in his early thirties and was at the prime of his life.

He was a graduate of the military examination, and his own martial arts skills could only be considered above average, but his ability to lead troops in battle was quite strong.

Give him 10,000 soldiers and let him guard the Kyoto Pass. Even if thousands of well-trained cavalry come and form the "Wind and Cloud Rising Formation" that is said to be able to break through the iron wall, he is confident that he can hold out until Kyoto comes to support him.

Can……

The young general looked up at the outside of the city, and the cold sweat on his forehead rolled down like free cool water from the riverbed.

Outside the border, a large number of soldiers have been stationed on the spot. The black shadows have formed a large group, and it is difficult to tell the number of people at a glance!
Among this group of troops, there is one army that looks the most familiar.

They were a group of fully armored cavalrymen mounted on horses, holding spears and sabers in their hands. The direct sunlight fell on their armor, emitting a sparkling golden glow!
At the front of this row of cavalry, a stern-looking general slung a broadsword over his shoulder, looking coldly in the direction of Kyoto Pass.

This person is none other than the King of Zhenbei, the King of Youzhou, Li Ji!

And behind him were the famous King Wei’s five thousand cavalrymen.

In today's world, there is no consensus as to who has the most outstanding literary talent and is best at governing the world.

But if you ask who has the strongest army and who is most capable of conquering the world, even a village woman on the street will say "His Majesty the King".

What is the reason?

It’s these five thousand cavalry!
Don't be fooled by the small number of people, these cavalrymen are all very skilled! Plus they are wearing heavy armor, charging with both men and horses, what army can stop them?
They rushed into the crowd and killed a large number of people with one step. The iron horses could trample them to death with just one step.

What's more, if King Wei takes the lead and uses a large formation, he can stir up a strong wind, roll up thunder, and attack the city wall with the force of opening an altar.

The bluestone barriers at Kyoto Pass can’t hold up!

"This old thief has been honest for so many years, why did he suddenly go crazy today? He came to mess with our Kyoto!" The young general couldn't help but curse in his heart.

Although everyone in the world knew that King Wei had the strongest military force, most people did not think that King Wei would mobilize his troops.

Over the years, Youzhou has been peaceful and quiet, living its own life without getting involved in any major events in the world, which is like defending Mount Tai. Although there are rumors that the Youzhou army is fighting something in the north, to this day, no northern enemy has been seen in Daliang, so it is regarded as a rumor and no one takes it seriously.

I thought this peaceful life would last forever, but could it be that King You suddenly sent out troops some time ago, and within a few days, they brought supplies along the territory of Youzhou and arrived between the two passes.

This put pressure on Kyoto.

"General."

When the young general was worried, his adviser came hurriedly with a small transparent mirror in his hands, and the young general also picked it up.

Produced by Shenji Pavilion, this small mirror can see a thousand miles away. Just put it in front of your eyes and you can see very far away.

When he placed the small mirror on his eyes, his vision instantly became much larger.

The young general finally saw clearly the figures hurrying in the enemy's tent.

Apart from these 5,000 cavalry, the remaining elite soldiers and logistical troops are countless. What's more, this place is very close to the big city of Youzhou, so there is no shortage of local supplies.

It really gives me a headache the more I look at it.

While looking around, the young general suddenly discovered several inappropriate figures appearing in the army.

They were two men who looked like farmers, with broad builds. One was a little fatter with a hoe for tilling the land stuck next to him, while the other was thin and gloomy, with a slightly thick beard and a beard on his face.

The two of them looked like men working in the fields, not soldiers, but when the soldiers next to them saw them, they saluted them one after another, which made the young general feel confused.

While thinking about the identities of these two people, I suddenly saw the bearded man looking towards me.

Even at such a long distance, the young general could see the other person's dark eyes staring at him.

In those eyes, the young general seemed to hear a melodious wolf howl, and his mind was shaken. The treasure in his hand fell directly to the ground with a crisp click.

Broken.

The young general didn't care about this at the moment, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

What is that?
……

Watching the dogs fighting, he looked away.

"What's wrong?"

Zhu Laoba asked.

"Is there someone on the wall over there watching us?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Laoba placed his hands across his eyes to block out the sunlight and looked towards the city wall. He squinted his brows, frowned, and stared for a long time but saw nothing. In the end, he could only mutter:
"Your ability to see thousands of miles away has gotten better and better. At this distance I can't even see a black spot."

"We all have our own strengths. I can't beat you in a head-on fight, but I can't be weaker than you in all my abilities." Guan Goudou said, "Forget about that guy. How is Wu Niang? Has she recovered?"

"How could the Taoist priest leave hidden injuries?" Zhu Laoba said, "It's the stinky boy that Wu Niang married. I don't like him very much. He is too weak and I don't think he can get rid of his evil deeds. If he continues like this, he won't live long. I'm afraid he will still make Wu Niang sad after a hundred years."

"Once you enter the mortal world, you will definitely encounter these things. Wu Niang is no exception. If she is willing to do it, let her do it. A few decades of happiness is always better than a hundred years of loneliness."

"Your mother, how come you seem to have attained enlightenment after not seeing you for a few months? Is there another high monk beside King Wei?"

Watch dogs fight in silence.

"I wonder when King Wei plans to march."

Zhu Laoba looked at the army not far away and muttered to himself.

"Lord King Wei is probably waiting for the Taoist priest."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a young woman's voice behind him.

Looking back, I saw a young girl walking out of the military camp.

She had an oval face and was wearing an outdated, brown dress that didn't quite fit the times. Her age was hard to tell, perhaps twenty or thirty, but her temperament suggested she was in her fifties or sixties.

Looks amazing and unique.

"Miss Guan..." Zhu Laoba was obviously a little uncomfortable: "You look really young recently."

"The Taoist master's magic is amazing." Guan Jinping also turned around on the spot, "I thought I would reach the peak of my age at 40, but I didn't expect that I could cultivate until I was 20 or 30 years old."

After a pause, he said:
"I feel like I can continue. If I keep practicing, I'm afraid I'll regress to below double eight."

As she said this, Guan Jinping had a faint smile on her face.

She seemed to be thinking of the old guy in Kyoto.

If I were to go find that old guy in this state, I'd probably scare him so much that his face would turn pale.

"The Taoist's magic is really powerful." Zhu Lao Ba didn't know how to comment, so he simply changed the subject: "I don't know when the Taoist will come."

"It should be soon." Guan Jinping said.

After saying that, he turned his head.

Guan Jinping suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a donkey cart at the end of the road.
