Asura Fields Everywhere in Soochow

It was already night when they arrived in Jurong. In order not to disturb the people, the team still camped outside the city.It is less than a hundred miles from Jurong to Qu'a, another day of hard work, this long journey will come to an end.

The Jurong county magistrate probably received Sun Ce's order, and when he came outside the city to greet him, he sent some meat, and extravagantly added minced meat to the millet rice at night.

Due to illness and fatigue from the bumpy road, Lu Ji went to sleep with his clothes on as soon as the tent was set up.He thought he was going to miss this big meal, but was woken up by Sun Wu at night.

"If you don't wake up, I will eat your dinner." Sun Wu said, pulling him up from the bed, and stuffing the clay bowl and chopsticks into his hands.

There was no table in the tent, and the bed was laid directly on the floor, so there was no other place to eat. Lu Ji sat cross-legged on the bed, and after a while of slow adaptation, he realized that the bowl was still warm.

The curtains of the tent were opened to allow the moonlight and firelight outside to enter the tent.There was no one outside the tent, and there was no sound of talking or moving. The soldiers should have rested.This bowl of rice should be specially warmed for him.

Lu Ji's heart skipped a beat, "Thank you..."

"You don't need to thank me, Lu Su and Zhou Yu left it for you."

... Lu Ji suddenly lost his appetite.

Seeing his unhappy appearance, Sun Wu thought he was worried about his illness.But Sun Wu knew that although his illness was tormenting people, it would not kill him at this time, so he comforted him, "Don't be too afraid. Although your illness comes and goes, you will always recover. You'll live to...70."

Lu Ji nodded, silently picked up two mouthfuls of millet rice, and then asked, "You just came back from Gongjin's camp?"

"Yeah." Sun Wu said as he took off his coat neatly, "I was in their camp, and I heard Lu Su talk a lot about Monkey King... If he didn't tell me these things, I would almost forget what I wrote The story turned out to be so interesting.”

Lu Ji recalled Lu Su's story about flying horses, but he didn't find it interesting.

After Sun Wu said what he just said, he sat on the edge of the bed in a daze for a moment, and then said: "When I was about to leave in my last life, I thought that this world was full of things that made me miserable. But now let's talk about the past. Thinking about it once in a while, it’s not always true. Although suffering has been suffered, there are also things that make people warm and happy... It is said that there will be a revolving door before death. I was about to leave this world, but I was pulled back. Maybe it is The world wants me to forgive it before I go, to recall the pleasant things too..."

Hearing this, Lu Ji put down his chopsticks and asked her, "Since you recalled so many happy things, do you still want to leave?"

"Of course I have to go." Let alone whether she can forgive it.Even if I still don't forgive it in the end, then this world should teach some martial arts and let her go.

Thinking of this, Sun Wu pinched Lu Ji's cheeks with his fingers, "Just wait for you to lose your crown soon... There are still about 11 years left."

Lu Ji avoided her hand and changed the subject, "What else did you and Gongjin say?"

"There's nothing else." The weather was still cold, and Sun Wu also got into the bedding before continuing, "Lu Su loves to talk about the world and the world, and he talked about many old things, but most of them are political affairs, and you don't like to listen to this child."

"Can……"

Lu Ji wanted to continue asking, but was interrupted by Sun Wu, "Eat quickly, take your food away and go to bed after eating, I have to get up early tomorrow."

Lu Ji: "Why do you have to get up early?"

"Tomorrow, I need to go to Jurong City to visit Ge Xuan and ask for a spell for my brother..." Seeing that Lu Ji only looked at her seriously and listened to what she said, Sun Wu begged him, "Don't dawdle, kid, eat!"

Lu Ji quickly pulled all the millet rice into his mouth. After eating, he ran outside the tent to wash and put away the pottery bowls and chopsticks. After returning, he put down the roller blind and hurriedly got into the bedding again.

"Ah Wu, can I go with you tomorrow morning?" He curled up, lowered his voice, and said childishly in Sun Wu's ear.

Just as Sun Wu wanted to refuse, he turned around and found that Lu Ji's round eyes were covered with a layer of moonlight, which looked very moist and cute, so he changed his mouth, "You still have a fever, don't you feel uncomfortable?"

Of course, being sick is still uncomfortable, but Lu Ji wants to be with her more than staying alone in the tent.

He found a reason casually, "I heard that Ge Xiaoxian was always dressed in white, he floated out of the dust, he was an old man like a banished fairy, so I wanted to see him too... Besides, I also wanted to ask him for a spell that would stop me from having nightmares .”

"I'm familiar with him, there is no spell that makes people not have nightmares..." Sun Wu wanted to refuse again, but when he saw Lu Ji's pitiful eyes, his heart softened strangely, "...But if you want to see him Him, that's fine."

……

However, the next day, Lu Ji didn't see Ge Xuan who was dressed in white, who floated out of the dust and looked like a banished fairy.

When he saw Ge Xuan, he was already lying on the ground covered in blood. The old man's kind face revealed grief, indignation and desolation[1], and he stared directly at the culprit, Sun Wu.

Sun Wu habitually wiped the sword with the victim's clothes, and said while wiping, "Ge Xuan, hand over the Longevity Talisman to me quickly, don't dawdle, I'm still in a hurry."

Because he was sick and walked too slowly, Lu Ji followed slowly, so he didn't see the murder process.But in such a short period of time, Sun Wu probably stabbed Ge Xuan cleanly when they met, and a little more force would have killed Ge Xuan.

Standing outside the door, he was shocked—is that how "begging for a spell" is?...

But Sun Wu, who has asked for spells countless times, has already mastered the technique. This is equivalent to beating a boss to make him drop items. If you really want to beg Ge Xuan sincerely, you can't ask for anything. Take the initiative to donate treasures.

Sure enough, Ge Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood, tremblingly took out a red charm from his bosom and handed it to Sun Wu, "Old man, old man only has this one..."

"I know." This is also like fighting a boss. The boss will have a cooling-off period, and it will take five years before Ge Xuan can make a new longevity talisman.If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have to come here again and again.

Sun Wu put away the talisman, put Chi Feng back into the scabbard, and searched around in Ge Xuan's house like a robber, and found another yellow talisman.

She folded the two talismans and stuffed them into her bosom. She turned her head and saw Lu Ji and remembered something. Pointing at the dying old man on the ground with the scabbard, she said, "...This is Ge Xiaoxian. Have you seen enough?"

Ge Xuan whimpered and spat out another mouthful of blood.

Lu Ji: "...Look, that's enough."

"Let's go after seeing enough."

After speaking, Sun Wu happily took Lu Ji's hand, returned to the camp, and went to Qu'a with the team.
