Gulou Military Camp

"Hurry up! Move these carts into the granary quickly to make room. Commander Aguda will bring back a lot more later, so we need to have nowhere to put them!" The centurion stood at the gate of the military camp with his hands on his hips, shouting orders to his men to move the carts of grain and fodder in.

"yes!"

Everyone rushed forward, untying rice bags from the grain cart and working, whispering in each other's ears:

"Hey, you said that our camp has been short of food for quite some time, how come there is suddenly so much food replenished? Could it be that General Shao has shown mercy and rewarded them?"

"What are you daydreaming about?" The soldier below rolled his eyes and took the rice bag from him and passed it to the next person. "With General Shao's vicious temper, our commander was defeated and it's lucky that he didn't get punished with a hundred military sticks. He was even rewarded with food and grass!"

"Oh, oh...then where did this food come from?" The soldier in charge of unloading the grain cart was a little confused. Could it be that they robbed it from the nearby Linyuan City?

His friend who was chatting with him looked around and confirmed that everyone around him had walked away towards the granary before signaling him to come down. The two of them walked slowly at the end and continued to talk in a low voice:

"I heard that after being captured, the commander accidentally got a magic weapon from the priests of Linyuan, which allowed him to extort money from people out of thin air! I don't know exactly how he did it, but it seems to be the power of the fragile college student priest. Most of the countries that have formed an alliance and truce with Linyuan now don't use copper coins or silver. They have to use something invisible and intangible to buy goods, so the commander can only buy food and grass in Linyuan before coming back."

Gulou and Linyuan were still in a hostile relationship, so of course they couldn't connect to the hot topics of the college students. They had only heard about the methods of the priests. Although they also wanted peace and were curious about the pastimes of the gods, they dared not disobey the orders from their superiors.

"Is this true?! I originally thought that going against the priest would not end well, but now it seems that we have some chance of winning!" The two discussed enthusiastically all the way. Anyway, they would not lose out no matter who won the battle. If the priest won, they would certainly have a chance to survive as they never killed anyone, and they could also experience the thousand-mile sound transmission technique; if Gulou won, they would certainly have many benefits as the victors.

But whether Gulou can win remains a question.

Aguda rode on his horse absent-mindedly, staring at the screen in front of him, always paying attention to whether there were any messages popping up.

Originally, he should have focused on the panel of the cyber fraud system and worked day and night to defraud the people of Linyuan of their money, but a woman he met unexpectedly not long ago took away all his attention.

When he showed off, she would not laugh at him, but sincerely praise him for his abilities; when he was tired, she would not complain, but instead advised him to take care of his health and rest early, while General Shao would only make him work like a slave day and night!

Aguda wiped away his bitter tears, and suddenly saw the familiar avatar jumping, and immediately opened the chat box impatiently:

【Linyuan Little Sweet Girl】:

Brother, are you free now? Something unpleasant happened recently, I want to talk to you...

Aguda's heart tightened, and the corners of his mouth that had been raised suddenly froze. He then sent a red envelope of a considerable amount:

[The most handsome man in the world]:

What's wrong, sister? Who bullied you? Are those moneylenders here to trouble you again? Come, take the money first, don't be polite to me!

He let out a long sigh. This girl was also pitiful. Her parents died early, and her gambler father owed the gambling house a lot of money before he died. She worked as a helper in a restaurant during the day and went home at night to light lamps and weave cloth to supplement the family income. She also had a bunch of younger brothers and sisters to support. How could a weak woman like her endure all these hardships?

"Commander, these grains and fodders..."

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the entrance to the military camp. The centurion in charge of transporting the goods seemed to have something to ask, but he was busy comforting Xiao Tiantian, so he waved his hand irritably:

"Make your own decision! You still bother me with such a trivial matter? Get lost now!"

After sending the people away, he rushed into his own tent in two or three steps, thought again and again, and still let his lust get the better of him, so he sent a message to the other side:

[The most handsome man in the world]:

My dear, I have been chatting with you for such a long time, but we haven't even met in person. How about we meet somewhere? Why don't you send me a photo first? Otherwise, I won't be able to recognize you when the time comes...

at the same time

The Mansion of Innocent Children

"Damn it, God is screwed! He asked me out to meet him and even asked me for a photo!! What should I do?!" Ma Chengyun was flipping through the little notebook of tragic character that Tong Zhenzhen had written for him, when he looked up and saw this explosive piece of information. He was immediately frightened and turned pale. He hid in Xie Yuan's arms, trembling.

Xie Yuan suppressed the twitching corners of his mouth and patiently stroked his fur:

"Alright, alright, that scoundrel can't do anything to you through the screen. Think of something happy. Haven't you already recovered the money that was defrauded of you?"

Ma Chengyun finally calmed down for a while. After years of experience in theory and hands-on teaching by expert Chen Miao, Tong Zhenzhen was now extremely strong. He walked to the screen slowly, waved his hand and typed a line of words:

【Linyuan Little Sweet Girl】:

Brother, you are so impatient. I haven’t even put on my makeup yet. I’ll send it to you after I change into nice clothes. Don’t complain that I’m slow, hum!

The crowd watching was amazed, and Chen Miao clapped her hands in praise:

"Great, great! This statement neither explicitly gave the other party a positive answer to their request for a meeting, but also gave them a hint of hope. The perfect amount of coquettishness and the logical reason for changing clothes also bought us time to come up with a countermeasure. Zhenzhen, you can start your career now!"

"No, no, it's all Master Chen's fault!" Tong Zhenzhen continued Chen Miao's play and then turned her gaze to Ma Chengyun:

"Okay, now let's think about how to resolve the photo issue. Since the other party took the initiative to ask for a meeting, as long as we can calm him down and prevent him from getting suspicious, it will be easy to arrange for him to be arrested later!"

Ma Chengyun had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem. He fell back on the chair and yawned lazily:

"Well, what's the big deal? All the sisters are stunningly beautiful. Just take a picture of any one of them and send it over."

“No, no, no,” Tong Zhenzhen raised her index finger and shook it in front of him. “He has memorized your voice. When we meet, you will definitely be the one to be in charge, so you have to take the photos.”

"Ah? But I'm a man, what should I do..." Ma Chengyun still didn't understand and pointed at his Adam's apple in a daze.

Tong Zhenzhen gave him a kind smile, and waved to Xie Yuan to block the door and prevent anyone from escaping, and said in a gentle and persuasive manner:

"That's not a big deal. Just cover it up with a necklace. Put on a skirt and a wig. With your looks, Xiao Ma, you can definitely charm that guy to death!"

“W-what?! You, you, you, don’t come over here!!!”

Ma Chengyun then realized what she wanted to do. His face turned pale and he covered his clothes with his hands amid Tong Zhenzhen's evil laughter. He stepped back and tried to run away, but it was too late. Xie Yuan had already blocked his way and pushed him back into the chair like a chicken.

Tong Zhenzhen rushed forward like a bully who forced a decent woman to death, and even called on her friends:

"Mom Fei, bring the skirt you sewed earlier and put it on him! Xiaoli, didn't you borrow the system of the Academy of Fine Arts to play cosplay before? Do you have any long straight black ones for him to use? And Sister Miao, I'll leave the makeup to you!"

The other people responded and took action. The room suddenly became busy. Only Ma Chengyun's wailing resounded through the sky.

One hour later

Aguda huddled on his couch with a nervous look on his face, waiting for news. He knew that women hated men who were impatient and waiting for others to dress up, so he didn't dare to urge him, while imagining the face of his lover in his heart.

With a ding, the screen lit up. After seeing the face of the woman in the photo clearly, he subconsciously held his breath:

The young woman was wearing a goose yellow dress that outlined her slender waist. Her skin was so white that it was a little pale. Perhaps it was due to working day and night, but her beautiful face was still intact. Her cheeks were round and cute, and her watery eyes were full of shyness. She looked at the screen timidly. Just one glance almost took his soul away.

Boom

Aguda rolled off the couch and fell to the ground, closing his eyes happily. If he could marry this girl, even if he died a thousand times, what would it matter? I would give her my life!

"Someone come quickly, the commander has fainted!!!"

The guards at the door heard the noise and shouted in panic. This night in the Gulou military camp was destined to be unpeaceful.

Tong Zhenzhen and the others were also very tired, so she invited everyone to stay at her house. There were plenty of rooms anyway, and the others had nothing to do, so they agreed. However, Chen Miao said that she wanted to have a tryst with Lin Shizhu, so she waved goodbye to the invitation to the sisters' night talk in tears.

As soon as Chen Miao walked to the door, she saw her lover. She was about to greet him enthusiastically, but she saw an unexpected person. She was a little surprised and said:

"General Xie? Why are you here? It's rare. Why don't you go in and see her when you come?"

Chen Miao did not specify who he wanted to see, but Xie Ci coughed a few times and looked away uncomfortably. Lin Shizhu smiled and walked forward, took her arm, and teased:

"I'm afraid he can't bear to part with her after seeing her? He's leaving tomorrow, and I just had a drink with him to see him off. He originally said he wanted to stop by and say hello to Miss Tong, but when he got to the door, he didn't go in. What do you think-"

"You talk too much." Xie Ci glanced at him with a warning look. Lin Shizhu also knew what to do and stopped talking, waving his hand at him:

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. You just stay here and watch the northwest wind all night. I'm going to go to the night market with Xiao Miao~"

Lin Shizhu winked at him ostentatiously. This coquettish look made Xie Ci's fists itch, and he wanted to hit him on the face a few times. Seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Shizhu pulled his partner away quickly, but Xie Ci suddenly said:

"Wait a minute, Chen Miao, I have something to ask you."

Chen Miao stopped and looked back in surprise:

"Looking for me?"

Xie Ci nodded, and Chen Miao understood that he was probably going to ask about Tong Zhenzhen, so she turned around and planned to be the matchmaker for these two people again.

"Do you... know Tong Zhenzhen's family? We occasionally talked about her parents before, but she always seemed to evade the topic. I don't know if it's because she hates me and doesn't want to talk to me about this..." Xie Ci took a deep breath, carefully chosen his words, and tried not to let his emotions overflow. He didn't know when he had this dirty thought. He wanted to share everything about himself with Tong Zhenzhen, and also wanted to know everything about her. Being concealed like this made him feel like he was hanging on a rope, and if he was not careful, he would fall into the abyss.

Did she have some difficulties? Could it be that her parents treated her badly, and was he exposing her scars? Or did she hate herself and didn't want to talk about her family affairs with someone like him?

He despised himself for speculating on other people's thoughts.

Xie Ci raised his head nervously. He keenly noticed that when Chen Miao heard "Tong Zhenzhen's home", she showed an expression of disgust, as if she thought of something dirty. But that expression was as fleeting as a dragonfly skimming the water. She quickly adjusted her expression and smiled and shook her head:

"General Xie, what do you want me to say about you? How could she hate you? I know Zhenzhen. If she really hated you, she wouldn't be so relaxed in front of you now. So don't worry~ Have some confidence in yourself. You have a considerable status in her eyes!"

Xie Ci heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. After all, Chen Miao and Tong Zhenzhen lived together day and night. Since she said so, it must be true. Chen Miao changed the subject:

"As for her family... her parents are simply - huh, nothing. These are not for me to say. You should wait until the time comes and ask her in person."

Chen Miao used up all her life's cultivation to not say the word "scumbag". She let out a long sigh and patted Xie Ci on the shoulder:

"Okay, General Xie, now that you've made up your mind, just go for it! I'll support you mentally~"

After saying that, she took Lin Shizhu to visit the night market he had been talking about for a long time, and waved goodbye to Xie Ci in the evening breeze.

The dark clouds dissipated, and a crescent moon reappeared in the sky. The silver light scattered on the young man's hair and robe. The gentle waves did not diminish the determination in his eyes. He turned neatly and headed into the deeper night.

Regardless of whether Tong Zhenzhen accepts his feelings or not, he swears that as long as she stays in this world, he will always protect her. If she leaves in the end, he will pray for her life and wish her peace and health.
