Chapter 26 Sudden Accident

Zhao Jin was stunned for a moment, and then heard Yang Xu's somewhat awkward voice.

"Because of military exploits."

"I had more merit in battle, but he took it away from me." Yang Xu looked very indifferent, as if he didn't take it to heart because of this matter.

Zhao Jin felt disgusted, "So he is trying to make you come to Yunzhou with me this time?"

Unexpectedly, Yang Xu shook his head and denied it.

Maybe he felt that what he said was too unclear and not good, so Yang Xu added: "They are greedy for military pay, and I don't agree with it."

Zhao Jin understood that Yang Xu was unwilling to join their ranks and be robbed of his military exploits and exiled again.

Although it is too self-deprecating to describe Yang Xu following him to Yunzhou as an exile, in the eyes of those people, there is no difference between this and exile.

"They are greedy for military pay and falsely claim military merits. This is rotten to the core." Zhao Jin dislikes this kind of person very much. If the rats in the army are not removed, they will only corrode the entire army and eventually turn it into an army.

A remnant with rotten roots.

When Yang Xu heard this, he raised his head and glanced at Zhao Jin.

"Master Yang, are you interested in following me?" Zhao Jin directly extended an olive branch.

"Now it is."

Zhao Jin smiled and said, "Master Yang knows what I am talking about."

Yang Xu remained silent.

"Master Yang, I hate this kind of person the most. I can guarantee that situations like this will never happen under my rule."

Yang Xu's eyebrows moved slightly, but he remained silent.

Zhao Jin did not force it, but said: "Master Yang, you can think about it carefully."

After saying that, Zhao Jin left and chose a seat at the outermost edge to sit down.

By this time, everyone had raised the fire, and the entire cave was warm. Even Zhao Jin, who was sitting on the outermost edge, did not feel cold.

Leaning against the cave wall, Zhao Jin closed his eyes and rested his mind. He still had a long way to go, and the weather was bad, and his body was of average quality. Zhao Jin must take the time to rest to avoid getting sick along the way.

It was freezing cold, and there was a lack of medical treatment in ancient times. Once he got sick, and was manipulated by the spies in his entourage, he would not survive without the help of someone in the dark.

Feng Wupeng glanced at Zhao Jin, walked lightly, walked past Zhao Jin, and came to Yang Xu, who was still at the entrance of the cave.

"Master Yang." Although he is a lower-ranking official, Feng Wupeng's tone was as arrogant as ever, "I just saw that you and the young master were having a pleasant chat. I wonder what they were talking about?"

Yang Xu glanced at Feng Wupeng without saying a word.

"Master Yang." Feng Wupeng narrowed his eyes and stared at Yang Xu.

"He is just a powerless abandoned son. You don't really think of him as the eldest prince of King Liang, do you? Don't end up with the wrong master and lose your life."

Feng Wupeng's deliberately lowered voice was somewhat threatening and cruel, and Feng Wupeng did not hide his ulterior motives at all.

However, Yang Xu remained silent and regarded Feng Wupeng as nothing.

"Yang Xu!" Feng Wupeng clenched his cheeks, "Don't you want to stand out?"

"I won't do anything wrong." Yang Xu finally spoke up.

Feng Wupeng's face was gloomy, "You are so good at not doing anything wrong, Yang Xu, in the officialdom, do you think you can really be clean?"

Yang Xu supported the cave wall with one hand and stood up neatly with strength under his feet, "I can."

Just two words, decisive and powerful.

Hearing the commotion here, the soldiers looked at what their two current leaders were talking about, either explicitly or implicitly.

Some are simply curious about gossip, while others are keenly aware that the atmosphere between the two is too sharp.

Feng Wupeng turned his head and glared, and the soldiers who secretly looked at the two of them looked away.

As a result, Feng Wupeng no longer had the intention to continue the conversation.

Yang Xu turned around and walked into the cave. He just took two steps and paused, "Feng Wupeng, you have changed."

Almost as soon as Yang Xu finished speaking, Feng Wupeng's expression immediately turned ferocious.

Zhao Jin vaguely heard the movement here and did not open his eyes.

Pushing too hard will only be counterproductive.

Everyone was resting in the cave, and occasionally a few quiet voices could be heard.

It's getting late, but the snow outside has stopped, and it's not even getting any lighter.

Zhao Jin frowned, "It seems we are going to spend the night here. Is there enough firewood?"

"Enough."

Jin Quan glanced outside. Although he was a little worried, he still had a smile on his face, "It can burn all night!"

"Arrange for people to take turns at night." Zhao Jin gave some instructions, "Beasts are afraid of fire, but it's snowing heavily and it's too cold outside. It's hard to say whether any wild beasts will risk running in."

Yang Xu nodded.

Soon, it became completely dark.

The only light source in the entire cave is the fire.

The golden red firelight shines on the cave wall and on the sleeping people.

The two soldiers poked the firewood with sticks boredly, yawning from time to time.

The cave was so silent that only the crackling sounds of tree branches were being burned. Occasionally, a few howls of wolves or the roars of other unknown beasts could be heard outside.

At this moment, there was a subtle sound in the cave, not obvious, very light, accompanied by a low "hiss".

Some sleepy soldiers kept their spirits up and did not notice.

Zhao Jin slept on the outermost edge, next to Jin Quan who insisted on running out to sleep with him.

Some fat Jin Quan slept deeply, resting his head on the cave wall and scratching his face.

Under the firelight, a red snake spit out a snake letter, approaching Jin Quan little by little.

There was a hissing sound in his ears. Jin Quan frowned and stretched out his hand to pat the sound.

As soon as Zhao Jin opened his eyes, he saw Jin Quan's fleshy and calloused hands patting the head of a red snake!

The snake was spitting out snake letters and staring directly at Jin Quan's hand, which was about to clap.

Zhao Jin: "!"

He quickly grabbed Jin Quan's wrist.

The situation was too urgent, so Zhao Jin used a relatively strong force, which woke Jin Quan from the pain all of a sudden.

"Eh..." Jin Quan woke up in pain and was about to cry out when Zhao Jin covered his mouth.

He opened his eyes suddenly and saw that the person holding his wrist and covering his mouth was Zhao Jin. He just breathed a sigh of relief when he was jumped by the red snake in front of him.

Zhao Jin felt Jin Quan struggling and glared at him fiercely.

This snake looks poisonous, is it going to die?!

Jin Quan, who understood Zhao Jin's eyes, immediately did not dare to move.

Zhao Jin let go of Jin Quan's wrist and mouth, and made a gesture to ask Jin Quan to maintain this movement and not move.

Even if Zhao Jin didn't say anything, Jin Quan wouldn't dare to move now, or even couldn't move.

His hands were hanging in the air, even trembling.

At this moment, the two soldiers on duty also noticed the movement here. They stood by the fire and looked nervously at Zhao Jin.

Zhao Jin put his index finger up to his lips.

The two soldiers nodded hurriedly, shut up and stood there, not daring to make a sound.

Zhao Jin held back his breath and stared into the snake's eyes without blinking.

One person and one snake looked at each other, but no one moved.
