Chapter 296 Someone wants to give the general a treasure (ask for monthly tickets)
"Benboerba, Babolben, why are you two sneaking up here instead of practicing in the mountains?"
After Chen Yuan's unpleasant voice sounded, the big green claw suddenly stopped a few feet away.
then,
"boom"
"boom"
There were two muffled sounds, like the sound of popcorn popping.
Then, two beavers, about a foot in size, suddenly "exploded" on the spot and became five or six feet in size. They sat upright with their front paws raised and stood against the wall.
In one of them, the two hairs on its head suddenly stood up.
Terrified.
The two beavers were the two brothers Benbolba and Babolben under Chen Yuan.
Gao Yu was a little surprised to see the two little monsters appear. He put his hands down, and the big green claws also disappeared into the air.
"Sir, is this?"
"My contracted demon has been following me since Qingshan County. He is used to being wild and has no rules." Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his body to one side, looked at the appearance of these "two brothers", and said with a bad smile:
"I remember telling you to stay in the mountains and practice. Why are you coming up here?"
Since leaving Qingshan County, he has been fighting all the way. The cultivation of those contracted monsters that were once under his command has been declining and they are of no use. Naturally, they have fewer opportunities to come out, but he has always kept them by his side.
This time when he came back to guard Jinguan City, things were relatively stable, so he put the twelve grass-headed gods under him into the Ninth Mountain to practice, where they were given plenty of flesh and blood of demons.
After fighting around in the demon battlefield, Chen Yuan actually has quite a few subdued demons in his hands, all of which are at the Tianguan realm. However, he would rather give all these demons away as rewards and "waste" his resources by keeping these little demons by his side.
After wearing it for a long time, you will naturally develop feelings for it.
Gao Yu suddenly understood after hearing this. He was originally wondering how two little demons could get in the heavily guarded Zhonglang Palace with many restrictions. It turned out that they were contracted demons under the general's command, and they followed the general all the way from Qingshan County where the general made his fortune.
It's just that the name is a bit weird!
And judging from the general's tone, there was obviously no blame, which made him pay attention. He would have to remind the soldiers patrolling the mountains to be careful and not let the flood wash away the Dragon King Temple, otherwise family members would not recognize each other.
At this time, the two Daimao put down their front paws, and like a seal, they arched forward, crawled on the ground with their paws clenched, and then spoke in human language.
"Sir, we met a man."
The two monsters had difficulty speaking. They chattered while describing one thing, but they couldn't make it clear after talking for a long time.
For a monster to understand human language, it needs to be in the right environment and have the right experience, just like a child learning to speak. These two beavers can speak, but they can't speak clearly.
Finally, he started dancing around in a panic.
After a while, Chen Yuan laughed and then turned to look at Gao Yu.
"These two little ones said that a maid from my palace was driven down the mountain."
"They are grateful for the food they have received. They have been fed for a few days and are begging for mercy."
"General Gao, send someone to ask what's going on."
Chen Yuan has never cared about these things, but since brother Ba Ben asked for favor, he had to ask.
"Yes, my subordinate will go right away."
Gao Yu was also watching the fun, so he smiled and agreed.
the other side,
The maid Xiao He called for the two little ones in the clear pond for a long time but didn't see them, so she left sadly and went down the mountain.
Soon after, she wrapped her clothes tightly and came to the camp at the foot of the mountain. Here, there were pavilions, towers, and houses. The main color of black, which complemented the wind and snow between heaven and earth, looked solemn and dignified.
The soldiers of the Ninth Mountain are stationed here, and ten departments are located around the camp. Among them, the Internal Affairs Department, which manages the internal affairs of the Ninth Mountain, is located here. Although it is only one of the ten departments, it manages a lot of things, including military rations, military pay, repairs, personnel selection, documents, etc. It can be said that it assists the General of the Central Army in managing the internal affairs of the mountain. Among them, the Chief of the Thousand Households can be aptly said to be the steward of the Ninth Mountain.
Xiao He was dismissed and wanted to leave the mountain. She needed to return the forbidden token in the mountain before she could leave.
She was in a confused and depressed mood, walking through this familiar place. Not far away, she could hear shouts coming from the Ninth Mountain training ground. Looking over there, she saw many soldiers in the snow, bare-armed, with bulging muscles, practicing catching and killing. In the past, when they had nothing to do, they would often sneak down to watch the heroic soldiers training, with girlish fantasies in their hearts.
I heard that a group of new soldiers arrived a few days ago, many of whom were from big families in the city. They were handsome and had extraordinary backgrounds. She and her sisters were still happily discussing it the day before yesterday, but now, they are no longer in the mood.
Soon, Xiao He arrived at the Internal Affairs Department. Today, the Internal Affairs Department was much more lively than usual. Even in this snowy weather, there were many people coming and going.
As soon as she stepped in, she heard crying sounds.
Some people, like her, came out with their bags on their backs, crying and muttering about what to do.
When a clerk in the office saw her, he called out,
"Miss Xiaohe!"
A bearded man in charge of clerical work sat at the side of the hall with a table in front of him.
"Master Liu, I..." Xiao He stepped forward hurriedly, hesitating, hoping that there was still room for maneuver.
"Miss, you are a servant summoned by Zhonglang Palace. The forbidden token on your body is very important, so do not leave the mountain. Return it and leave now." The chief clerk had a blank expression on his face and interrupted her with a cold voice.
Xiao He's eyes suddenly turned red and she felt sad. It was really true that people were forgotten after a while. When this chief clerk met them two days ago, he was very polite and kind. How come he had changed so much?
She said nothing, but lowered her head, holding back her tears. She took out a bright silver bracelet engraved with runes from her wrist, feeling somewhat reluctant.
This is the pass that prohibits entry and exit of the mountain.
However, Liu Zhubu took the bracelet with one hand, and then waved his hand with a big brush and threw a note over.
"Go to the storehouse and get some silver. This is a favor from the manager." As he said this, he raised his hands towards the mountain, with a respectful and proud expression on his face.
"Now the general is in a high position, guarding Jinguan, and is busy with all kinds of affairs. You old people are no longer suitable to stay here. I think you know that the general has not summoned you to serve since he came. This is obviously a problem. Don't blame the steward for not remembering the old friendship."
After saying this, the clerk stood up and walked towards the back hall, holding the bracelet in his hand.
And the piece of paper just floated and floated, and finally fell to the ground.
Xiao He tried to catch it several times but failed. Finally, she squatted down and tears fell uncontrollably.
After calming down a little, she picked up the note on the ground. At this time, several figures walked out from the back hall.
"Brother Wenjin, thank you!"
"Xiaoya, why don't you thank Uncle Zhang?"
"Xiaoya thanks Uncle Zhang."
A middle-aged soldier in green armor came out, with a pretty girl beside him. They bowed to a middle-aged man opposite them who had a cheerful face, a bloated figure, and was wearing a green flying bird costume.
The man in the green flying bird suit is Zhang, the chief steward of the Internal Affairs Department of the Ninth Mountain, who has reached the peak of Body Spin. Behind him is Liu Zhubu who just entered.
At this moment, Zhang, the chief steward, looked very pleased with himself. He nodded and said in a tone of teaching:
"When you go to the mountain, listen and watch more. If you are summoned by the general, you must be well-behaved and sensible so as to leave a good impression on the general."
"Thank you Uncle Zhang for your teachings. Xiaoya will definitely learn it."
"Hmm!" Manager Zhang nodded, and suddenly his nose moved slightly, and he could smell a faint and sultry fragrance. Then his eyes suddenly turned and fell on Xiao He, who was squatting in the hall. At this time, the little maid was looking at the wrist of the girl named Xiao Ya, who was wearing the pass she had just handed over, with a smile on her face.
The answer is self-evident.
Just as she was lost in thought, a cold shout brought her back to her senses.
"You, what's in your bag?"
As she spoke, the little maid felt a strong force on her back, dragging her forward, rubbing against the cold and hard floor, causing her whole body to ache.
His bag was grabbed by Butler Zhang, and then there was a "swish" sound of cloth tearing, and the things inside scattered around. Then a golden light flew out and was sucked by Butler Zhang.
The man looked down at the piece of meat in his hand that was gleaming with golden light, and his expression changed instantly.
"The flesh and blood of the Tianguan demon!"
Then, he looked at the maid Xiao He who was lying on the ground with a burning gaze, and spoke in a stern voice.
"Where did you get this thing?"
"Don't tell the truth."
Zhang Zongguan was surprised. She also knew Xiao He. As a maid, she couldn't touch such things. How did this little girl get it? Did she steal it?
When the maid Xiaoya heard the words "flesh and blood of Tianguan demons", her face jumped in surprise. Those two little guys gave her such precious things?
She felt the butler's pressing gaze, her face turned pale, and she stammered as if to explain, but then she thought that if she said it, the two little guys would be in trouble, so she closed her mouth for a moment.
When Zhang Zongguan saw that the maid refused to speak, his face darkened and he immediately shouted outside.
"Somebody come!"
Immediately, the armored soldiers guarding outside rushed in.
Xiaoya was frightened, her face was pale, she knelt on the ground, holding the tattered bundle, in panic.
Just then,
"squeak"
Two strange cries were heard, and two black shadows suddenly appeared in the hall, blowing up the wind and snow outside the hall, making a sound of breaking through the air, and rushed towards the steward named Zhang.
Then, there were crackling sounds and several muffled thuds caused by clapping of hands.
Then, two black gases turned into whirlwinds and fell to the side of Xiao He, the maid who was surrounded in the middle. Two beavers appeared, one holding the golden piece of demon flesh in one hand, jumping and calling towards the little maid.
At this time, Zhang, the steward who had been hastily beaten back by the black wind, became furious when he saw this scene.
"Damn it!"
"Why are there demons here?"
As he spoke, he looked at the maid and the two cute looking beavers and said coldly,
"How dare you collude with the demons? Behead me here."
As he shouted, the sound of knives being drawn rang out in the hall, and murderous intent filled the air.
Just at this moment, a light sigh was heard outside the hall.
"Put all the knives back."
Although the sound was light, it had a convincing deterrent power.
Then, one foot stepped into the lobby.
Everyone looked at the figure that appeared in the direction of the sound, and their faces were suddenly startled.
"General Gao!"
The soldiers who came in knelt and bowed their heads. Manager Zhang and the soldier in green armor who was traveling with him also quickly greeted them.
The person who came was Gao Yu.
There was no need for Gao Yu to show up in person for a maid, but the contracted demon under the general's seat was in a hurry.
"General Gao, you came just in time, this monster."
Zhang Zongguan was just about to speak in a stern voice, but Gao Yu glanced at him coldly.
"Shut up."
"Let this maid go back."
Then his lips moved slightly.
The next second, the originally energetic Manager Zhang suddenly turned pale. He looked at the two cute little guys and tried to force a smile with his pale face, but it was an ugly one.
"You go up the mountain by yourself later. You are an old man and don't know how to be a subordinate. You can't have too many ideas, otherwise, people will die." Gao Yu snorted coldly and simply said two sentences. If he said too much, he would cross the line. As he spoke, he also looked at the middle-aged man in green armor next to Zhang Wenjin.
The other party is a captain from the Sixth Mountain Bow Heavenly Division!
Zhang Wenjin was so frightened that he trembled and wanted to explain.
"I"
Finally, he lowered his head and said, “Yes!”
Gao Yu didn't continue to pay attention to them. He looked at the two beavers with their teeth bared and smiled, "The work is done, it's time for you two to leave."
“Brother Ba Ben” squeaked twice, nodded, and turned into a black wind and went out to beg.
Seeing this, Gao Yu also stepped forward and left.
After they left, Supervisor Zhang immediately turned around with a worried look on his face, "Captain Niu, I can't help you anymore."
As he spoke, he grabbed the wrist of the girl named Xiaoya, and took off a silver bracelet as she screamed in pain. Then he quickly walked to the dazed maid Xiaohe, with tears on his face:
"Miss Xiaohe, you can't leave. The Internal Affairs Department really needs you now."
Then, he turned around and rushed to Liu Zhubo who was stunned behind him, and said in a loud voice,
"What are you still standing there for? Go and call back all the people who left."
At this time, on the corridor bridge outside the Internal Affairs Department, Gao Yu heard the movement of the Internal Affairs Department and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
This guy has too many ideas. He actually replaced and stuffed people into the Ninth Mountain without reporting to the commander. He really doesn't know his own limitations.
At this time, he was ready to go back to the mountain to report. He moved his feet, shot up, and was about to fly towards the mountain.
Not far away, a streak of light shot up, also in the same direction.
He called out,
"Cloud Cavalry!"
A stream of light and a figure not far away flew towards him, and it turned out to be Yun Tiansheng.
"General Gao!" Yun Tiansheng clasped his hands.
"Are you in a hurry to see the general for something?" Gao Yu asked.
"There is an old man with a bad nose at the foot of the mountain who said he wants to present a precious treasure to the general!" Yun Tiansheng spoke with a strange tone.
While the two were talking, at this time, outside the tent of the Ninth Mountain, there was an old man with messy hair like goat horns and a red nose, drinking happily from a wine gourd. Next to him, there was a silver-haired girl, who was like a fairy, independent and aloof from the world in the snow.
"Crazy old man, what is your treasure?"
"That Zhonglang General is so scary, why don't we go!"
