Leaving the Turkic camp, Lin Wanrong galloped for a while, leaving the Hu tents far behind. Only then did he slow down, and the tall Turkic horse slowly trotted forward.
Making sure that there was no one around, Lin Wanrong took out the 'Spicy Nose Grass' that he had stolen from Ashina and carefully examined it. The leaves of the 'Spicy Nose Grass' that grew in the Turkic Khaganate were coarse and not as tender as the tobacco leaves in his previous life. The Turkic people rarely used paper, much less cigarettes, and they would only use their nose to inhale the 'Spicy Nose Grass'. If this thing was in China, it would have long become popular.
Putting the leaf to his nose, he took a deep breath. Although the tobacco was coarse and had a pungent smell, Lin Wanrong could not help but let out a satisfied sigh. This was a good thing. If he could grow it in large quantities in China and sell it to Korea, Japan, and even Europe, then China would make a fortune. He did not know if the people of China had started to grow tobacco. If not, then he could only attack the Turkic Khaganate. Lu Dongzan said that this tobacco grew to the north of the Altai Mountains, and that he should study the map with Old Xu and send a few people to occupy it.
After fantasizing for a while, he had already come to the drill ground where he had fought against Su Mubai. Gongs and drums were beating, and the sounds of battle shook the heavens. Tens of thousands of horses galloped forward, as though they were training for a cavalry battle. Hu Bugui and the others had already returned to their original positions. Before the army set off, the elites of Li Tai's army of hundreds of thousands would train here every day. In order to counter the Hu's expertise in horse battles, Li Tai placed the emphasis on cavalry battles. Hu Bugui, Du Xiuyuan, Xu Zhen and the others were placed in an important position.
"General Lin, why are you here?!" Seeing Lin Wanrong riding a large horse, leisurely making his way to the barracks, Saint Li and Hu Bugui, who had already received the report, hurried over.
Lin Wanrong dismounted and patted the back of the Turkic horse, saying with a smile, "Brother Hu, do you recognize this horse?"
Hu Bugui snorted disdainfully, "Turkic horses are tall and strong. His strength was ferocious, and he was adept at sudden attacks. Their weakness is their stamina. I saw Turkic horses many times on the northern front, and they weren't much of a treasure. Sir Lin, where did you get this? "
Lin Wanrong smiled mysteriously: "Of course these mixed breed Turkic horses can't be considered treasures. But what if it's a purebred Ferghana Horse? Big Brother Hu, Big Brother Li, both of you are experienced and knowledgeable, have you ever seen a Ferghana Horse? "
"Ferghana horse?" Hu Bugui was shocked. "The Ferghana horse is a specialty of the Turks. Legend has it that they are descendants of the Pegasus. They are tall and handsome and can travel a thousand li in a single day. Even among the Turks, there are very few of them. When I was fighting with the Hu, I once saw one on the steppe. Sir Lin, why are you talking about ferghana horses? Have you seen it before? "
Lin Wanrong chuckled and said, "Ferghana horses, huh? They're very common. They eat grass and poop. My family just imported two of them yesterday. When will you guys go for a walk? "
"Two?" Hu Bugui's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. "General Lin, you're not joking, are you? A Ferghana horse is worth thousands of gold, when did you get two of them? Where did you import them from! "
"Someone bribed me to give them to me," General Lin said mysteriously.
Hu Bugui and Saint Li were astonished. General Lin was indeed extraordinary, he could even mention the matter of bribery so directly.
"Cough, cough," Hu Bugui laughed. "So it was a gift from a friend. General Lin, I, Hu Bugui, have never touched a Ferghana horse in my life, when can I go to your residence to have a look?"
"No problem." Lin Wanrong smiled coquettishly. "Big Brother Hu Bugui is really an expert. The mane of a Ferghana horse is golden and soft, it's more comfortable than touching a woman's thigh. When this matter is over, call your brothers to my house, we'll have a treasure horse party, let these Ferghana horses take off their clothes, let us touch them, let them shed some sweat, hahahaha! "
What a pervert, but I like it! Hu Bugui and Saint Li laughed heartily with General Lin. They exchanged a few words, and Hu Bugui said, "General Lin, you came to find us today, is there something you want us to do?"
Hu Bugui and the others had been with Lin Wanrong for a long time, and were well aware of his temperament. This General Lin would never stroll around the barracks if he had nothing to do, and if he did, he must have some bad intentions.
Lin Wanrong gave a fist and palm salute to Saint Li, saying with a grin, "This, I'll have to trouble big brother Li. Big brother Li, how is the improvement of the cannon of our Divine Machine Battalion going? "
Saint Li glanced around, saying in a low voice, "We've just experimented a few days ago, after the improvement, the firing distance can reach up to one mile, but the power has not decreased much. At the same time, Miss Xu also thought of a way to add a base to the cannon, making it more flexible and lighter. "
Why is that girl Xu Zhiqing interested in everything, astronomy and mathematics aside, she even wants to play with bows and cannons. Lin Wanrong nodded. "Big brother Li, do me a favor. Find the heaviest and oldest cannon, carefully adjust it, and repaint it to look similar to our new cannon. Write a few words on it, put two wheels on it, and give it to me, I have a use for it! "
Saint Li asked curiously, "General Lin, what do you want this for? We've long eliminated old and heavy cannons. If you want to play with cannons, I'll get you the latest one, one that can be pulled by two horses, and can even rotate and adjust the angle. "
Lin Wanrong laughed heartily. "Big brother Li, what I want is an old cannon. Remember, this cannon has to look brand new, bright, and new, but the inside is full of scrap metal, it can't be fired no matter what! Then, paint a few foreign words on it so that they can't understand it. In short, the more foreign, the more trendy, and the more it can scare people, the better. "
Saint Li was bewildered, but Official Lin was cunning and had never suffered a loss, so there would definitely be no problem if they did as he said. Saint Li said embarrassedly, "General, there definitely won't be a problem if we do as you say. But I'm not talented enough to paint a foreign language on the cannon. May I ask, what is a foreign language? What kind of foreign language should I paint? "
Lin Wanrong took out a pen and paper, scribbled a few words, and handed it to Saint Li. "Just write these words. Remember, the color must be bright and eye-catching! "
Saint Li stared blankly at the crooked letters, and Hu Bugui also stared wide-eyed. "General, is this a foreign language? You're amazing! How do you pronounce this thing? What does it mean? "
Lin Wanrong took the paper and pointed to the letters on it. "Everyone, read after me, F — U — C — K, f * ck, f * ck, it must be f * ck."
"F * ck, f * ck, it must be f * ck." Saint Li and Hu Bugui humbly and eagerly followed General Lin's lead and read aloud. Lin Wanrong laughed heartily. "F * ck, that's great! I'll remember it. I'll paint these words on the cannon. I'll call it the f * ck cannon! "
"General, what does this f * ck mean?! Why do I feel that you like f * ck a lot? "Saint Li asked curiously. Hu Bugui also nodded repeatedly in agreement.
General Lin rolled his eyes. "Sigh, big brothers, I'm a civilized person, and I didn't want to say such vulgar words, but you must force me. The meaning of f * ck is, oh, big brother Hu, I heard that you have a mistress in the Eight Great Alleys, so what do you call the things you do every night? "
Hu Bugui blushed and was too embarrassed to speak. Saint Li interrupted with a smile, "Big brother Hu, that's called making love, isn't it?!"
General Lin shook his head. "The word 'making love' is too civilized, but it's rare for you to be civilized, so let's just leave it at that. F * ck means making love, making love fiercely!"
"F * ck cannon? Making love cannon? " Hu Bugui and Saint Li looked at each other in dismay, desperately trying to hold back their laughter. General Lin was indeed a genius, and the name he gave the cannon was superb!
After settling on the matter of the 'making love cannon', Lin Wanrong humbly asked Hu Bugui for some geographical knowledge. He was most concerned about the Kobdo where tobacco grew. According to his way of thinking, resources were dead, while people were alive. The Turks didn't realize how big of a change tobacco would bring to society, so he, Lord Lin, would reluctantly go and help them. He would kill his way into the Turks, steal their women, steal their horses, and steal their tobacco. Since ancient times, only the Turks have robbed China, so why can't China rob the Turks? As the saying goes, take a step back, and you'll see the world, and take a step forward, and you'll be infinitely happier!
Hu Bugui listened to General Lin's rambling, talking about Ulan Ude, Irkutsk, Serenga River, Chechelag, Ust-Kut, and even which piece of land the Turks had robbed from whom. Hu Bugui felt a burst of excitement, tightly grasping General Lin's hand. "General is really a godly person. I have fought with the Hu for many years, and only know about the Barkun region. General has never been to the battlefield, but you even know their history and Khan so clearly. The heavens have blessed China and sent General Lin to us. When you go to the battlefield, with your intelligence, you will definitely be able to win a battle from a thousand miles away. "
This old Hu's flattery skills had also improved greatly. Lin Wanrong said bashfully, "Big brother Hu must be joking, I just love to learn, and have read millions of books."
Saint Li and Hu Bugui were already used to General Lin's shamelessness, and it would be abnormal if he stopped bragging one day. Immediately, Lin Wanrong drew a rough map according to the half-baked map he learned from Lu Dongzan, and Hu Bugui supplemented it, marking out the specific location of Kobdo. Although he did not know why General Lin was so interested in Kobdo, but seeing that his attitude was very different from before, from 'want me to fight' to 'I want to fight', Hu Bugui was naturally very happy. He did not hold back, and told him everything he knew.
When they returned to the city from the drill ground, it was nighttime. Lin Wanrong thought of the two banquets of Goryeo and King Cheng, and for a moment hesitated, not knowing whether he should go or not. The Goryeo banquet was fine, but he had always been at odds with King Cheng, and this old fellow had taken the initiative to invite him to a banquet. He did not know what he was planning.
After walking for a while in the city, they came to a secluded place, where Lin Wanrong suddenly stopped, looked around furtively, and softly called out, "Fairy, Fairy — —"
After calling out a few times, there was only silence, and no one answered. Lin Wanrong was puzzled. According to the agreement, Fairy should be by his side at all times to protect him. Today, when he came to the Hu camp, he did not know where she was hiding.
"Fairy Ning — — Yuxi, Yuxi — —" Lin Wanrong called out twice, then felt a breeze blow past him, and a burst of fragrance brushed past. He turned his head to see Fairy Ning standing quietly beside him with a gloomy face.
"Hey, Fairy sister, where did you fly from?" Lord Lin looked at her strangely. "I have been looking for you for a long time, but did not see your shadow!"
Ning Yuxi's face was expressionless, and she said indifferently, "What did you call me just now?!"
"Fairy Ning!" Lin Wanrong opened his mouth to answer.
"And then what did you call me?"
"Yuxi — —"
There was a soft 'pa' sound, but it was a sword scabbard that flew out with a swift and fierce momentum, directly hanging onto the tree next to him, penetrating into the wood. Fairy Ning looked at him, her face like water, but there was a hint of anger in the corner of her eyes.
"Yuxi, what's wrong with you? The scabbard and the treasured sword are a pair, how could you have the nerve to take them apart?! "Lin Wanrong giggled, and said shamelessly.
"Yuxi, these two words are not for you to say." Fairy Ning calmed her state of mind. She said with a calm expression, "You can call me Daoist Ning. I promised to protect your life, but I didn't promise not to cripple you. If you are missing something on your body, as long as you keep your life, I won't be breaking the promise. Think carefully. "
"Yuxi, you became a monk? I couldn't tell! Sigh, what a waste of a pot of dry rations! "Lord Lin shook his head, his face full of pity.
Ning Yuxi's long sword flew out with a swish, passing by his ear. Lord Lin only felt a chill beside his ear, and a few strands of hair that stuck out fell silently.
Damn, threatening me with a flying sword, I'm not scared. He wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and sighed softly. "That was a really accurate throw. Yuxi, when are you going to teach me, I've always been very interested in flying daggers! "
Fairy Ning's self-restraint was really cultivated to perfection, and she said indifferently, "This time was just a warning, next time you won't be so lucky — what exactly do you want to say?"
Lin Wanrong sighed and said, "Why is it so difficult to talk to you for a while? Have you been by my side all day? "
Fairy Ning slightly closed her eyes, which could be considered as an answer. Lin Wanrong laughed mischievously. "Sister Fairy, your skin is really good, and your figure is even better — oh, oh, I didn't say anything. Can you please take your sword away? I'm a person who likes to joke! "
Ning Yuxi pressed the long sword in her hand against his neck, and slowly said, "You have to cherish the opportunity to talk now, it's very likely that you won't be able to speak soon."
"Sister Fairy, what do you think about the barbarians wanting to borrow cannons?" Feeling the cold edge of the sword pressed against his neck, Lord Lin didn't dare to take advantage of her, and honestly asked.
"I don't know!" Ning Yuxi replied concisely. "I never ask about things that I shouldn't care about."
"Then what about King Cheng? Are you in charge of King Cheng's matters? "Lin Wanrong seized the opportunity to ask," He invited me to a banquet, should I go? Which set of clothes to wear? Sister Fairy, can you help me decide! "
"You want to ask King Cheng?" A hint of a smile flashed in the fairy's eyes. "You shouldn't ask me, there's someone who knows better than me."
"Who?" Lin Wanrong didn't understand.
"Have you forgotten? That night, she came to kill you." Ning Yuxi smiled sweetly, like a peony blooming in the cold winter, incomparably beautiful and charming. But Lord Lin's heart was cold, and he braced himself and said, "Sister, who are you talking about? I've been studying so hard recently that my brain is damaged. Speak clearly. "
"Your brain isn't damaged, your heart is rotten." Ning Yuxi's beautiful smile gradually disappeared, and her slender fingers pressed against the hilt of her sword.
"Ah, I remember." Lord Lin's face was filled with surprise. "Sister, you're talking about the woman in black who came to kill me that night, your Junior Sister, right? Sigh, at least I didn't damage my brain. "
"Do you know her?" Ning Yuxi said lightly.
"I don't know her, how would I know her? She's the assassin, and I'm the victim, completely opposite. Sister Fairy, didn't you see it that day? Speaking of which, I still haven't thanked Sister Fairy for saving my life. "Lin Wanrong smiled cheekily, cupped his fists, and bowed three times. In his heart, he prayed to the heavens, the earth, and his parents, and the ceremony was complete!
"Really? You really don't know her?! "A trace of ridicule flashed in Ning Yuxi's eyes as she looked at him.
There were only a few people who knew about his relationship with An Biru. The old Emperor was suspicious of Ning Yuxi, and would definitely not tell Ning Yuxi about me and Sister An. Lin Wanrong laughed and said, "I really don't know her, but she's your Junior Sister. When will Sister Fairy introduce us to each other, and we can all get rich amicably? How great would that be!"
"Look, what's this?" Ning Yuxi held a bee sting in her hand and said softly.
"Eh, isn't this a memento of our acquaintance? I didn't expect Sister to keep it, you're really affectionate. "Lin Wanrong hurriedly smiled.
"Bee sting, five poisons! There's only one person in this world who can concoct it. "Ning Yuxi shook her head and smiled lightly." If you say you don't know her, would you believe it yourself? To think that you guys put up such a good assassination show! "
Lin Wanrong's heart broke out in cold sweat. This Ning Yuxi is really deep, she actually knew that I knew Sister An, but she didn't expose me. What's her intention? Could it be that she likes me? Being handsome is really troublesome!
"Xianzi jiejie, I'm just asking what you think of Cheng Wang, why are there so many complaints? Is it because there's no one to talk to, so your heart feels empty and lonely? "Lin Wanrong smiled awkwardly.
Ning Yuxi snorted. "You're not the only smart person in this world. Don't treat others like fools. I don't care how Junior Sister An hooked up with you, but you better not play any tricks in front of me, otherwise … "
"Otherwise, your head will roll, right?" Sir Lin released a snort. He pointed at his own head and said in a loud voice, "Cut me then, if you have the skills then come at me! Let's see if your precious sword is sharper or if my neck is harder! Do you really think you're a fairy just because I call you fairy? If it weren't for the fact that you and Qing Xuan are relatives, I wouldn't have done it. I would have shot you a long time ago. Kill you, you know? " Lin Wanrong pointed at his temple and made a shooting gesture. That fierce look made it seem as if Fairy Ning owed him five hundred taels of silver.
Ning Yuxi saw his angry look and found it funny. She said indifferently, "Are you done?"
Lin Wanrong suddenly turned around and stared at her. "Give me that gold medal!"
"What gold medal?" Fairy Ning was stunned. She immediately understood and shook her head. "What do you want that gold medal for?"
Sir Lin said fiercely, "This lord spent money to buy something, and I'm not satisfied with it. I want a refund! What, there's no three-month guarantee period?! What kind of service attitude is this! Quickly return the gold medal to me and go back to your immortal market to play. "
Ning Yuxi was angry and amused at the same time. How could this person have all kinds of ideas? She shook her head and said, "I will definitely do what I promised. That gold medal will not be returned."
Lin Wanrong said angrily, "You're rebelling! Who's the master and who's the follower, have you figured it out? You don't have any professionalism, you're not professional, you're not professional at all. That fish immortal market of yours nurtures talents like you? Return the gold medal to me. You, go play somewhere else! "
Ning Yuxi was famous in the world, and her status was so noble. Who had ever yelled at her like this? No matter how good her self-restraint was, seeing Lin San's arrogant, despotic, and condescending look, she couldn't help but be angry. The sword in her hand trembled slightly. She wanted to pierce a few holes in his body.
"You want to kill me, right?" Sir Lin puffed out his chest and sneered. "Then come! If you don't dare to kill me, you're my wife! If I'm killed by you, I'm not your husband!! Hehe, that fish immortal market of yours has a very good reputation. You want to kill your employer for no reason. I can't afford to serve you. I might as well let you take my life, and everyone will have peace! "
Fairy Ning usually interacted with polite and virtuous people. She had never met such a ruffian before. Her jade face flushed with anger. She raised the sword in her hand a few times, but finally put it down.
"My 'Yu De Immortal Market' has never broken a promise. What do you want me to do? "Fairy Ning suppressed the anger in her heart and said calmly.
"Do what? You've never served anyone before! Master, I'm tired from walking. Go call a carriage over! Also, don't always put on that bitter face. Smile more! "Sir Lin snorted and ordered.
"You —" Fairy Ning trembled with anger. After a long silence, she finally stomped her foot and left.
