"Border fortress? Why do you ask this?" Hua Ling stood up from the shade of the tree, patted the dusty areas in front of and behind him, and shook the hanging cloth in front of his abdomen.
Gu Xiangqiu also walked up to Hua Ling at this time. Gu Xiangqiu, who was a bit tall for a palace maid, was only three fingers taller than the sixteen-year-old Hua Ling.
Although Gu Xiangqiu discovered it early on, it was only when he was standing face to face with Hua Ling that he realized how tall the girl in front of him was, but Hua Ling could still grow, and she could be taller than him.
Is she a tall princess? She should like riding and shooting. Gu Xiangqiu thought so.
"The soldiers under my command are very curious about your appearance, and I sincerely invite you to come to the border fortress. Please rest assured that I will ensure your safety." Gu Xiangqiu leaned forward and bowed slightly, "And, what I said about your conversation just now
I heard something about it, and I refuse to allow people with unknown origins to come with me." This was obviously said to Hua Beichen.
When Hua Beichen heard this, he thought for a moment and realized that Gu Xiangqiu was targeting him: "Who is this person of unknown origin? I am the princess's bodyguard!"
"Then please return your body to Guard Luo." Gu Xiangqiu looked at Hua Beichen with disdain. Hua Beichen wanted to fight with Gu Xiangqiu, but Hua Ling grabbed him by the collar.
"Uncle Huang is right, you have to have some control over possession." Hua Ling sighed and looked at Gu Xiangqiu doubtfully, "Do you all know that Beichen can possess someone?"
Gu Xiangqiu shook his head and explained: "Few outsiders know about each god's ability. Even if you know the ability of a god, you can't be sure who it belongs to. This can ensure that everyone uses the ability unexpectedly. I only heard it mentioned by Zhou Guoshi
The God of my father has descended upon me."
"Father..." Hua Ling looked at Hua Beichen who was silent in response to the address with sympathetic eyes, "I think you should stay in the palace and protect the other princes. Can you do it?"
Hua Beichen nodded feebly.
Why does this man look like a deflated rubber ball? Hua Ling thought strangely, then turned to Gu Xiangqiu and said, "I promise you, I will go to the frontier. When will we set off?"
"tomorrow."
In a midnight dream, Hua Ling and Bo Xun talked about what happened in the evening.
In Hua Ling's dream, Bo Xun was always naked from the waist up, with some linear lines on his body extending from his shoulders and neck to his crotch and the area covered by his pants.
Bo Xun was lying in a sea of Lycoris flowers, and Hua Ling was sitting next to him.
"Bo Xun, do you think Ruiqi and Ruiqi will still be at war?"
"The possibility is very high that as long as there is an inducement between the two countries, it will lead to war."
"Trigger? What could be a trigger?"
"As long as it's related to both countries."
"Is it similar to the Sarajevo incident..."
"Maybe."
Maybe Hua Ling herself was viciously killed like Archduke Ferdinand and his wife in the Sarajevo incident, maybe it was someone else, maybe...
"Is there any way to destroy civilization before the war breaks out, so that these two countries will no longer exist?" Hua Ling expressed his thoughts.
Bo Xun looked at Hua Ling's back and thought for a while, then sat up and leaned on Hua Ling's shoulder: "If you have the strength to get the approval of all the 'gods' before the war, it is indeed possible."
"Get your approval?"
"Is there an imaginary thing in your world that can eliminate humans with a snap of your fingers?"
"…Infinity Gauntlet?"
"The principle of eliminating civilization is similar to this, as long as you are strong enough."
So it means that as long as you are strong enough, you can destroy civilization and erase all traces of memory and civilization with a snap of your fingers? This is ridiculous, right?
"So, how can I become stronger?" Hua Ling looked at Bo Xun, and Bo Xun also leaned over to look at her and smiled wildly: "Accept all my power and the curse of the gods!"
The next day's time.
Hua Ling is late again.
Gu Xiangqiu stood beside the horse and looked in the direction of Hua Ling's palace. He still couldn't see Hua Ling who agreed to go to the frontier with him. Hua Mu also stood beside him worried.
Suddenly, Gu Xiangqiu saw Hong Zao hurriedly taking a set of clothes and sending them to the palace. The clothes should have been prepared, so why were they sent there in a hurry in the morning?
After a while, Hong Zao came out of the palace with Hua Ling. Gu Xiangqiu and Hua Mu were both stunned.
Hua Ling grew taller than two grown men overnight, with a strong profile as if he were a man. Hua Ling was led by Hong Zao to the sedan chair that Hua Mu had prepared for him. Hua Ling looked at the sedan chair and then looked at it again.
Gu Xiangqiu looked at the horse next to him and said in a rich voice: "Can you give me a horse too?"
Gu Xiangqiu and Hua Mu said almost at the same time: "What's going on!?"
On the way to the frontier fortress.
Hua Ling rode the horse she picked herself and followed Gu Xiangqiu. On the way, Gu Xiangqiu was still in disbelief, recalling Hua Mu's actions at that time:
Hua Mu first measured Hua Ling's height with his own. Hua Ling was a head taller than him. When Hua Ling looked at Hua Mu in confusion, Hua Mu felt the weight of his daughter's height crushing him.
Then he walked around Hua Ling and checked. The clothes Hong Zao took seemed to be specially made. Duanmu Wuxiang specially prepared them after Hua Ling turned into a man when Hua Mu talked about the fire. Maybe it was Mo Ruo Mu, the beloved daughter.
Yeah, it actually fits perfectly.
Compared with the Hua Ling from the previous day, the current Hua Ling seemed to have every part of his body enlarged in equal proportions.
Hua Mu hugged Hua Ling and said with a cry: "My daughter has become a man..."
"Let go, I'm just getting used to Bo Xun's power, and I can't seem to change it for the time being." Hua Ling reluctantly pushed the flowers and trees away from herself, and explained the reason why it became like this.
Later, Hua Mu took Hua Ling to select horses in person, and Gu Xiangqiu and Hua Ling left for the frontier fortress.
"Father made such a fuss, it's not like he can't change back." Hua Ling also recalled Hua Mu's actions at that time and sighed.
Gu Xiangqiu smiled: "The emperor likes his daughter, maybe he is worried that the princess will get used to being a male and won't change back."
Hua Ling listened to Gu Xiangqiu's words, nodded, and said, "Don't call me princess, just call me by my name, right?"
"Wushuang?"
"Um."
"However, you said that becoming a man is because you are getting used to Bo Xun, which is your divine power?"
"Well, although Bo Xun has changed my physique, I am still too weak for his power."
"Very few people use all the power of the gods. How does Wushuang plan to use this power?"
"It will always come in use."
The progress was not fast. Hua Ling and Gu Xiangqiu chatted every now and then. They were the only two on the road. They slept in an inn or a tree during the night. Gu Xiangqiu didn't understand that Hua Ling was used to sleeping in the wild.
It's because I feel quite comfortable after becoming a man, and I sleep much more deeply than Gu Xiangqiu anyway.
It was already five days after we arrived at the frontier fortress.
