Chapter 1785: What a Coincidence
After taking in everything, Ning Shu felt that General Liu was really daring. Not only was he trying to feed all the soldiers, he was also trying to support the soldiers’ families.
Ning Shu turned around and saw General Liu talking with someone. She tilted her head and suddenly laughed out loud. They sure were fated. It was someone she knew, Fang Yong!
On the other side, while chatting with General Liu, Fang Yong felt that someone was looking at him. His eyes swept the surroundings upon seeing that familiar figure, he was stunned.
General Liu turned his head to look at Ning Shu. He then said with a smile, “This is someone who just joined us today.”
“Chen Ermei,” yelled General Liu towards Ning Shu.
Ning Shu walked over and cupped her hands towards General Liu. “General Liu.” Then she said to Fang Yong, “What a coincidence.”
They hadn’t seen each other for a while. Fang Yong was already skilled in martial arts from all the hunting in the mountains. Now, his killing spirit was so strong that it was obvious he had been on the battlefield. He must have killed a lot of people.
Fang Yong looked surprised. He stared at Ning Shu, who was dressed in men’s clothing, and asked, “How are you here?”
Ning Shu smiled. “After you left, government officials came to the village to enlist two members from every family. Then we killed the soldiers on the road. And here we are now.”
Fang Yong was stunned for a moment. “I actually implicated you all?”
Ning Shu nodded. That went without saying.
“You guys are from the same village?” General Liu was surprised. “You are truly fated.”
Haha, she was afraid that it was more of an ill-fated relationship.
Ning Shu exchanged a few words with Fang Yong. She then turned around and left. On the way, she stopped a person to inquire about Fang Yong.
Fang Yong was already well-known here. He was good at martial arts and had good archery skills. He already had some subordinates.
Ning Shu knew that Fang Yong had begun his journey to the top.
She returned to the place where she lived and said to Chen Li, “How about we teach the Unsurpassable Martial Arts to the others? That way, we’ll have a bigger chance to survive on the battlefield.”
“Big Brother, these people might become our Chen family’s troops one day,” whispered Ning Shu.
Chen Li’s heart skipped a beat. He could vaguely sense something, but it was not clear. He nodded and said, “I got it. I’ll teach them now.”
“Focus on cultivating the young and strong,” said Ning Shu.
Just as Ning Shu was planning to check how much herbal medicine she had, Guard Zhou, who was always next to General Liu, came over and said that the general was looking for her.
Ning Shu put away her things and followed Guard Zhou to see General Liu.
General Liu lived in a simple house without any decorations. At this moment, he was reading a book. When he saw a visitor, he put down the book in his hand.
To avoid suspicions or rumors spreading in the camp, General Liu let Guard Zhou stay with them.
Ning Shu cupped her hands and asked, “Why is the esteemed general looking for this subordinate?”
Ning Shu conscientiously regarded herself as a subordinate.
General Liu said, “There will be a siege in five days. How about you participate in that?”
Ning Shu said solemnly, “This subordinate understands.”
He was going to test their combat effectiveness.
“Don’t be so serious all the time.” General Liu couldn’t help laughing.
Ning Shu maintained her rigid posture. “General is the leader of an army. We cannot skimp on the necessary customs. Otherwise, how can General lead the army?”
General Liu squinted his eyes and said, “You just came here. Do you have any suggestions about the place?”
Ning Shu shook her head. “No.”
“Don’t be afraid. If you have something to say, just say it,” said General Liu.
