After meeting him again

Chapter 8: Into the Illusion

In the wilderness of autumn, the cool wind blows, sweeping away the decay and decay.There is no trace of time, but mottled veins are carved in history, and each vein records a piece of the past.Picking up a fallen leaf casually, through its withered yellowness and incompleteness, memories like a tidal sea emerge gradually...

The general two years ago was still so heroic. He was born and grew up in the Northwest region. His memory seems to be only sea buckthorn, withered grass and yellow sand.

His father was originally a frontier minister, in charge of large and small government affairs in the northwest frontier.He should have followed his father's title step by step and managed these "state affairs" instead of his father.But the general was very obsessed with martial arts. He was rebellious when he was young, and he didn't want to stay in the door, reading and writing every day.Swords, guns and sticks, all kinds of moves are memorized.

Unable to stand up to his fuss day and night, his father had no choice but to write a letter to ask the emperor to play. After nearly three months of hard work, he finally got permission.Therefore, he cherished this hard-won opportunity very much, and at the same time volunteered to guard the frontier.This stay lasted for a few years, and the price of his growth was that the fierce northwestern wind blew away his original immaturity prematurely, but also left more calm and composure.

A general spent much of his life on the march and in battle.

He thought that one day his throat would be pierced on the battlefield, and the enemy cut open his chest, held up his heart, and screamed frantically.The arrival of the fish demon is like a glimpse of a clear spring, soaking the originally cracked earth.

The encounter between him and the fish demon was not so dreamy or strange, it was as plain as a piece of white paper that could be seen everywhere, a feeling of intolerance born of pity.

After the general's troops set up camp in a Populus euphratica grove, he and the others dispersed to find water.After walking for an unknown amount of time, the general suddenly smelled a moist breath, but there was no sound of rushing water around.Searching for this breath, he found a river with a steady flow of water.Because the terrain was too flat, the running water did not make a sound.

Of course, when he discovered the river, he also discovered that there was another person bending down to drink water.However, the general was also a little thirsty, so he ran over in a hurry and took a few sips indiscriminately.And when the man saw the general coming, he moved his position wisely.

The general saw that the man was plainly dressed, and he must not be a rich man, so his inner guard was lowered a bit.After drinking enough water, he chatted with him intentionally or unintentionally: "Is there any village nearby? Where are you from?"

The fish demon glanced at him and said, "People from Ronglu, I came here as a refugee. I don't know the surrounding area."

The fish demon was originally a white fish in a river in the territory of Ronglu. To avoid suspicion, he could only say that he was from Ronglu.After all, the war in some parts of the Northwest is tense, and no one will pay close attention to whether he is a human or a demon.

Ronglu Country is a small country in the northwest region, and it used to be quite prosperous relying on foreign trade.But the general guessed that the other party must not feel very good.

Because in recent years, the countries in the northwest have been fighting continuously, and wars of big countries annexing small countries are happening all the time.And just two months ago, Ronglu was annexed by Wusun Kingdom in the north of it. Thousands of people fled desperately, but only a small part escaped in the end.Seeing him like this now, the general thinks he should be alone now.

Then he asked again, "Then where are you going now?"

"I don't know, it's a step to be able to take a step."

"Did people from other countries embarrass you? Now the 36 countries are very heavily guarded against all countries."

"No, because I know medical skills. In this era of intense warfare, they dare not do anything to me."

Yes, the general knows.Healers are very scarce in the northwest region, and whenever war comes, they are the most precious resource.At the same time, the 36 countries also expressly stipulate that killing doctors is prohibited, and doctors can move freely among the 36 countries without any restrictions.
