General, your bun is here!

As the days passed, Zhang Xiaoqiu's stomach became more and more pregnant.He hasn't made up his mind yet. Apart from eating and sleeping all day long, what he cares most about is the news from the northern battlefield.He has never dared to tell his father that he was pregnant, not because he couldn't trust his father, but because he always lacked a sense of security in his heart. The child's father was not by his side. It's not easy.

It's not an option to hide it after a long time, and it's his father who has raised him for more than ten years. He can trust what his father treats him, so he should confess to his father when he thinks about finding a suitable opportunity.He was just chattering, and every time it was time to talk, he abruptly changed the subject.

Unexpectedly, news of the disappearance of the third prince came from the northern battlefield.

At the beginning, the three princes led [-] soldiers to the north, assembled [-] soldiers from the nine counties in the north, and divided them into three routes to recover the lost land in the north.The Hu people did not have a large-scale garrison in the lost ground in the north. They won several battles at the beginning, but soon the Hu cavalry went south, and Cangxuan soldiers and the Hu cavalry fell into a bitter battle.By the time the news of the third prince's disappearance came back to the capital, it was already late May.

Now Zhang Xiaoqiu panicked, left a note for his father, took the chicken and dry food, and ran away from home while his father was out.

Now even Maoji is not calm anymore, jumping up and down on the cushion of the carriage and saying, "You say you are three months old now! You are still so self-willed! You are not alone now! If your belly What happened to the child in the movie, you will regret it!"

Sitting in the spacious and comfortable carriage, Zhang Xiaoqiu propped his chin with one hand, and gently touched his stomach with the other, and said, "The third prince is missing. I have a bad premonition in my heart. If I had known earlier, I should have joined the army and followed him to the north. I'm worried. This child is very good and doesn't make trouble, so there shouldn't be any problem." He said, stroking his stomach gently as if saying to the child in his belly, "I know the baby is very good, and the baby also wants to find his father sooner. right?!"

"Besides, when the stomach grows, there are many people in the capital, and it is always inconvenient. I also wanted to leave the capital for a long time in my heart, but it just happened to happen."

Maoji leaned against the carriage like a deflated balloon, and said listlessly, "You are really like a stubborn donkey! Something came up in my heart, eight horses can't be pulled back, and I don't think about the consequences. Hey, I Right now, we just don’t have enough power, otherwise why would we bother.”

Zhang Xiaoqiu glanced at Mao Ji disapprovingly, and said, "Come on, don't always think about relying on others, relying on mountains and mountains, relying on water and water flow. You can be satisfied as long as you can live in this world safely."

Maojigu stared at his small eyes and groaned and vented his nostrils, dissatisfied, "You look down on me!"

Seeing his appearance, Zhang Xiaoqiu smiled unkindly, rubbed his furry belly and said, "You are getting bigger and bigger now, how can I look down on you? It's just you everywhere you look."

Maoji held his breath, and planned in his heart to ignore Zhang Xiaoqiu along the way, unless he confessed his mistake and showed favor to it.He jumped to the side and opened Zhang Xiaoqiu's bag with his paws, looking for something to eat inside, but he didn't expect to see a palm-sized sandalwood box, pecked it with his sharp beak, and curiously moved to Zhang Xiaoqiu's side and said, "Little ball, what is this?"

Zhang Xiaoqiu took a look, "The jade given by the old monk last time."

Maoji let out a howl and immediately jumped on it, pecked several times with his sharp beak to open the box, but the mechanism of the wooden box was very delicate, it couldn't open it no matter what.Maoji anxiously jumped onto Zhang Xiaoqiu's neck, rubbed his furry head flatteringly, "Xiaoqiu, can you open it for me to have a look?"

"This is to save the third prince! Don't move around."

Mao Ji pestered like a child, "Just one look! Just one look!"

"Just a quick glance! Don't give me any trouble!"

Zhang Xiaoqiu picked up the box, twisted the mechanism of the box a few times, and the lid of the wooden box popped open. What Maoji saw in Maoji's eyes was a strong wish force flowing around the jade. The most important thing is how shiny this jade is.

Maoji just wanted to get closer, but the box was closed with a "snap", Zhang Xiaoqiu said mercilessly, "You can say that you only glanced at it!"

Maoji wailed, "Just let me touch it! Just touch it! You said you put the jade in the box like this, what effect can it have?! It's strange that you can save the third prince by putting it in the box! This Wishing power can only improve people's luck, but it has no real impact on people in this world. Now the third prince does not bring this jade with him. If he is injured or something happens to him, this jade is useless. So The old monk certainly didn't mean to let you be so reckless!"

Zhang Xiaoqiu looked at Maoji suspiciously. Although he felt that Maoji was unreliable, Zhang Xiaoqiu was at least shaken. At the beginning, the third prince left the jade to him, and he just put the jade in the box. What can he do? He also felt that the big effect was unreliable.He opened the box again, and said, "Just touch it, you can just touch it!"

The feathered chicken leaned forward and carefully put its paws together. At this moment, something strange happened, and the bright white wish power surrounding the jade seemed to be pulled by the feathered chicken's claws, slowly gathering on the feathered chicken. That speed is very slow, like a slowly flowing air current.If the chicken's paws go east, the bright white wish will go east, and if the chicken's paws go west, it will go west.

But Yushang's wish power did not decrease rapidly, on the contrary, it seemed to form a microcirculation system with Maoji, and a slight halo slowly emitted from Maoji's body, and Zhang Xiaoqiu saw Maoji's figure in the halo It seems to be changing slowly, the feathers have also become colorful and gorgeous, and the halo on the body is becoming more and more pure. Seeing that the feather chicken seems to be undergoing some substantial changes, the halo on the jade body suddenly matches the feathers. The chicken was disconnected, and the halo on Maoji's body dissipated all of a sudden, and it returned to its original appearance.

Maoji stared at Zhang Xiaoqiu in bewilderment, then at Nayu, and asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Zhang Xiaoqiu pointed at his chin and thought, "Have you seen any changes?"

Maoji sat on Zhang Xiaoqiu's lap, closed his eyes as if he was adjusting his internal breath, and bursts of faint halos were emitted from his body, but not as strong as before. He suddenly opened his dark peacock eyes and said in surprise, "Little ball, The wish power in my body seems to have become much purer!"

Zhang Xiaoqiu took the piece of jade in his hand, "It should be its function." After looking it over and over again, he seemed to feel that it was not as glorious as it was at the beginning, and said, "It is probably some kind of container that can absorb and store wish power. Xishan Temple The incense is at its peak, and there are many believers and pious, but I don’t know how many years it took to get these. You can also absorb the power of vows, so you will have a reaction when you touch it. It is a bit miraculous that it can help you purify the power of vows in your body. "

"Xiaoqiu, I think you'd better wear this thing close to your body."

Zhang Xiaoqiu nodded.

It took half a month for Zhang Xiaoqiu to arrive at Gaowang City, which is close to the Cangxuan Dynasty army's camp, on the west side of Shangjun, at the corner of Beidi County and Shuofang County.

At this time, it has been a month since the third prince disappeared. Now the Cangxuan army is stationed in the important place to recover, but there is news that the reinforcements from the Hu people are also on the way. It's not a good situation.

Gaowang City is located in the intersection of desert and oasis, and there is water source in the south, which is a tributary of the Yellow River.Although there are caravans going to the place where the Cangxuan army is stationed, ordinary civilians are not allowed to go there.Zhang Xiaoqiu spent three days inquiring about the news, bribed the leader of a caravan, and got mixed into the caravan going to the army station in the west.

To the west of Gaowang City is the desert. Although this desert is not as good as Taklamakan in Xinjiang, it is still hundreds of miles away. People who are not familiar with it can easily get lost in it. It is still very dangerous to encounter wind and sand.Zhang Xiaoqiu put on makeup for herself, with a big mole on her face, her clothes became much darker, her eyebrows were connected into a straight line, and something was pasted on her eyes to look like a mouse-eye.Wearing a short brown jacket, he really looks like a guy in a caravan.He also groomed the chicken, its hair should look dry and dirty, and the most feared thing is that it will be missed when it goes out.

Since the wish power in Maoji's body was purified by that piece of jade, Zhang Xiaoqiu also felt that his physical condition seemed to be much better. It was fine to walk on a camel in the desert for several days and nights while pregnant.Every night Zhang Xiaoqiu talked to the baby in her belly, babbling, "Baby, you never had a happy life when you were in Daddy's womb, and Daddy will love you very much when you come out."

The night in the desert is very quiet, the sky is black and pure, you can see the stars all over the sky, and there are insects singing. When there is no wind and sand, it is a wonderful scene in the world. After talking for a while, Maoji also joined in the fun, and soon fell asleep amidst the chatter.

On the fourth day, the caravan arrived at the place where the Cangxuan army was stationed, and there was not much water nearby. In these few days, the army built an earthen city wall, forming a small fortress.The caravan exchanged supplies to the army, rested overnight and returned the same way.

Zhang Xiaoqiu originally told the leader that he wanted to join the army. He was an ordinary citizen in a border city. Kill some barbarians.

Now the third prince's army is fighting against the barbarians and is stationed near Gaowang City, but it has to cross the desert. He is not familiar with the desert, so he wants to join the army with the caravan to the place where the army is stationed.

The little leader saw that Zhang Xiaoqiu's story was quite similar. The people in the border towns and counties who were slaughtered by the barbarians for many years are indeed no longer a minority. In addition, it was beneficial, so he helped Zhang Xiaoqiu.
