Gu Xiangtan looked at the man, and quickly winked at Su Xi. Su Xi immediately held up an umbrella knowingly, and walked quickly in front of him.

Sensing that the rain had stopped overhead, Chen Cai was stunned for a moment, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Xiangtan and Zhao Yuan standing not far away, and Su Xi holding an umbrella beside her.

Chen Caibai said with a wet face: "Lingfo, you can't do this..."

Gu Xiangtan frowned: "What's the matter? Who punished you to kneel here?"

Chen Cai pursed her lips and did not speak.

Gu Xiangtan asked again: "The prince didn't come to the temple today, why did you come? Did you ask him for leave?"

Chen Cai nodded.

Gu Xiangtan understood: "If he doesn't come by himself, he asked you to come. However, when he comes, the Zen masters will also question him, and the emperor will also punish him. The prince is unhappy, so he can only punish you."

Gu Xiangtan guessed the reason rightly, but Chen Cai still didn't say a word, what can he say, as a slave, what the master wants is never up to them to decide.

Gu Xiangtan said: "Get up."

Chen Cai didn't move.

Gu Xiangtan sighed: "Get up, do some things with me, I just need someone to do some hard work, you can follow along to get things." Then, he glanced at Zhao Yuan, and asked him what to do with his eyes. no.

Zhao Yuan understands what Gu Xiangtan means, he wants to take Chen Cai with him, but the two of them are going to the Shenwu Military Camp, if Chen Cai goes with them... This is equivalent to leading the prince's people to Hou Bingchen's hinterland...

Zhao Yuan frowned, but Gu Xiangtan showed a firm look in his eyes, as if to say: You believe me.

Zhao Yuan doesn't believe in Chen Cai, but he believes in Gu Xiangtan, Gu Xiangtan has said so, what else can he say.

After all, Bi Fu handed the book in front of Chen Cai.

Looking at the pile of things, Chen Cai realized that Lingfo was just finding an excuse to help her get out of trouble, and she couldn't help feeling grateful.

"Lingfo's kindness to this servant has been taken care of every time, and this servant will never forget it." Chen Cai solemnly kowtowed to Gu Xiangtan, and finally took the book.

Gu Xiangtan returned a faint smile to him.

He and Zhao Yuan sat in a sedan chair, and the rest of them followed outside, leaving the Guozi Temple together and arriving at the Shenwu Military Camp.

Hou Bingchen was sitting in the army today, when he heard that Gu Xiangtan was coming, he greeted him personally, and Zhao Ze and Yizheng were also there.When Gu Xiangtan entered, he was competing with Vice General Wang, but after seeing him for a while, Zhao Ze's skills were clearly improved.

But Yizheng was not convinced, and still said coolly from the side: "As for this flamboyant fist and embroidered legs, if he goes to the battlefield, he will be the result of being cut across the board."

Zhao Ze listened with sharp ears, but he didn't get angry immediately like last time. Instead, he patiently went through all the moves with Deputy General Wang, and came over after winning applause from several soldiers on both sides. Back to talking.

"Hmph, you're already spitting out now. When I'm done, I'll see how I can beat you until you cry!"

When Yizheng heard it, he jumped up naturally, and the two of them got into a mess again.

Hou Bingchen introduced Gu Xiangtan into the coach's tent. He saw Chen Cai early in the morning, but he didn't say anything.

And Chen Cai also had a flash of surprise on her face, but she also suppressed her doubts, and stood obediently behind Gu Xiangtan.

Gu Xiangtan signaled him to put the books on the table and said: "I found these classics in the Guozi Temple. I thought that the Seventh Prince and the genius doctor would like to read them, so I brought them here."

When Zhao Ze and Yizheng heard this, they rushed over.

"Hey, what is it?" Yizheng picked it up and turned it over, and his eyes lit up immediately, "This is good! I used to hear that there was a Doctor Li in Daye in Nanban who belonged to Doctor Li, and he was good at using flowers and plants to make medicines." Poison, I wanted to read it a long time ago, but I searched all over the country and found no similar books, I didn't expect this to be sent here, and Lingfo is the best!"

Zhao Ze was also happy: "The map of Luzhou Pass? Is it where the fourth brother is stationed? I have to remember, can I help him someday!"

Gu Xiangtan's eyes flickered, and he just lowered his head and smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Anyway, it's good to be able to use it."

"It's useful, of course it's useful. No matter how much you read, you can never be too much. Isn't that what Lingfo told the prince?" Hou Bingchen smiled, and then looked at Chen Cai.

Thinking of the prince's embarrassed appearance, Gu Xiangtan couldn't help laughing.

"The prince is young and energetic, but his disposition is quite straightforward. If he is trained well, there is hope." Hou Bingchen said this politely, but it is not all false, it just depends on whether Zhao Mian is willing to work hard.

Then he said to Chen Cai: "This must be the prince's close servant Chen Huwei?"

Chen Cai was flattered: "The servant has seen the general."

"I have also heard about Chen Huwei's kung fu, and he can be regarded as a young talent."

However, just after he finished his compliment, Zhao Ze jumped up.

"Chen Huwei, come quickly, let's try two tricks together!"

Chen Cai still hadn't come to his senses, but was suddenly forced out of the tent by Zhao Zelian. He looked at Gu Xiangtan helplessly, and saw that the other party indicated that it was okay, so Chen Cai let go of his hands and feet and accompanied Zhao Zelian. I went to practice a few hands.

Hearing that the two were fighting farther and farther away, Gu Xiangtan calmed down and asked Hou Bingchen, "I don't know how Mr. Meng is doing now?"

Zhao Yuan interjected, "Pay off his gambling debt."

"Still in Jingu Building?"

Zhao Yuan nodded: "He doesn't want us to recommend him as an official."

Gu Xiangtan smiled: "He will be willing..."

"Fortunately, Xiaoyao Gambling Square has been closed down recently. Although I don't know how many days it will be closed, Mr. Meng should not be embarrassed in the short term." Hou Bingchen sighed.

Speaking of this, Gu Xiangtan said: "I'm afraid the right minister is unhappy, so he didn't ask someone else to clear it up?"

Hou Bingchen snorted: "He also wants to, but Qu Guang is notoriously cunning and cunning. If you want to ask him for help, where can you do it without peeling off the skin?"

"It seems that the relationship between the two adults is not very good now."

Zhao Yuan was taken aback immediately, and Hou Bingchen also reacted: "The meaning of Lingfo is..."

Gu Xiangtan narrowed his eyes, still smiling softly: "There's no rush for this matter, there's still time to discuss it later."

But there was another thing he wanted to ask Yizheng: "Genius doctor, can you change your face?"

Yizheng was stunned: "Disguise? What kind of disguise?"

Gu Xiangtan said: "Even if one person is dressed up to look like another person, it may not be exactly the same, as long as the appearance and temperament of an unfamiliar person can be fooled at first glance."

Yizheng pondered for a while, and said complacently: "Yes, it's not easy, as long as the body shape is about the same."

Gu Xiangtan nodded, and then said to Zhao Yuan: "I have an idea, it's just a precautionary measure, if one day this happens, it can be regarded as a way to deal with it."

……

Coming out of the barracks, Chen Cai bid farewell to Gu Xiangtan, and respectfully kowtowed to him three more times.

Gu Xiangtan helped him up and said: "No matter what Chen Huwei thinks, or what I saw today, I will not stop you, and you don't have to thank me too much. As I said, I am grateful for what you said that day, so I will do these things It's nothing to worry about, and you don't have to take it to heart."

Chen Cai's dry heart seemed to be sprinkled with a bowl of hot water by Gu Xiangtan. Thinking of the competition in the Shenwu military camp just now, and the treatment of those soldiers, here, he is not some inferior slave, as long as he has martial arts and talents , will be respected and praised by others, as long as a man is a man, he will have the desire to kill all sides on the battlefield to defend his home and country, and here, he seems to feel the sound of beating drums and gold, and the warm feeling Chen Cai's limbs seemed to heat up. He couldn't help but feel agitated, and said in a calm voice, "I didn't see anything today, but I just took some things for Lingfo. Please be at ease."

Gu Xiangtan nodded, didn't say anything more, and let Chen Cai leave.

Seeing Zhao Yuan's complex expression when he turned around, Gu Xiangtan pursed his lips and asked him, "What do you think of Chen Huwei's kung fu?"

Zhao Yuan said, "Not bad."

"Compared to Vice General Wang and Vice Future Shang?"

Zhao Yuan was stunned for a moment, but still said: "Above them." Although Chen Cai deliberately lost to the opponent just now and lacked a lot of actual combat experience, his skills are among the best even in the battalion.

Gu Xiangtan took two quick steps, rushed to Zhao Yuan, and turned his head to look at him with a smile: "With such a good helper, even if one day... one day goes to the battlefield, there will always be more hope."

Zhao Yuan faintly understood, but couldn't help being even more surprised.

"But he belongs to the prince."

It's not that Zhao Yuan doesn't cherish talents, but instead of digging from others, he prefers to cultivate them himself. Although it will take more time and effort, it is obviously safer and more credible.

However, Gu Xiangtan didn't think so, he looked at Zhao Yuan with a different gaze.

"I am sure and confident. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up."

And... at any cost.

Gu Xiangtan said in his heart, as long as it is for you...

As soon as he returned to Sumeru Hall, Xiao Luzi came to report.

"Lingfo, Master Su is here, and I have been waiting for you for a while."

Zhao Su?

Gu Xiangtan seemed a little surprised: "Did he say anything?"

"It's sandalwood from my hometown, and I want to give it to you." Xiao Luzi said, and then he said to himself funny, "It's really a coincidence that the general in front sent the incense burner. The incense will be delivered right away, there is really something missing, the news is not behind at all." It can be seen that everyone is staring at Sumeru Temple, with their eyes wide open.

Gu Xiangtan didn't reply, but as soon as he entered the Sumeru Hall, he saw Zhao Su sitting there, his back straightened in front of people, his hands on his knees, and the tea in front of him didn't even take a sip, his whole body was tense, It's uncomfortable to see.

Seeing Gu Xiangtan, he was even more busy getting up and saluting him.

Gu Xiangtan asked someone to change the cold tea, talked to him casually, looked at the incense Zhao Su sent, and then let Xiao Luzi go out, leaving only An Yin and Yan Fang in the room.

Gu Xiangtan didn't speak, just waiting for Zhao Su to speak.

Sure enough, Zhao Su couldn't help it after a while: "Lingfo, I have something to ask you for."

Gu Xiangtan laughed and said: "You tell me, these are all the attendants I brought from Luli, you can trust them."

Zhao Su looked An Yin and Yan Fang carefully before he found something from his arms and handed it to Gu Xiangtan.

Gu Xiangtan opened it for a look, his eyes flashed, and he said coldly, "Where did it come from?"

I saw that it was a small piece of paper less than two inches on one side, and only two lines of words were written on the paper.

"On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Buddha became enlightened and killed chickens to warn monkeys."

Looking at Gu Xiangtan's face, Zhao Su knew that he might have guessed right.

This is just a code word, "Kill the chicken to scare the monkey." However, the one to be killed is probably not the chicken, but the "Hou".
