On the contrary, Lu Pingan’s answer was a bit ordinary. It’s not something that makes people hard to forget in a glance.

Xu Xiansheng didn’t say much, he just let Zhou Xiaofeng go to the academy after 3 days. And then, he asked Bai Zhi if she would also like to go to the academy.

Bai Zhi quickly waved her hand: “Thank you Xu Xiansheng. I have a lot of things in my family, I really can’t get away from it. If I have a chance in the future, I’ll come to disturb you.” Bai Zhi declined politely. In modern times, didn’t she studied enough?

After paying the tuition fee, they leave Xu Xiansheng sitting alone in the classroom. He looked at the three papers the whole morning. No one knew what he was thinking about.

In the Northwest border

Hu Feng was cutting the vegetables, his mood seemed to be good. He has been delivering meals in the East 7th Camp in these past two days. Zhou Gang and Fu Zheng’s condition obviously improved, they now have the energy and spirit to move. Although they were tortured, there were no fatal injuries in their body. As long as they eat well, they will recover.

What he has to do now is to find an opportunity to rescue them.

At this time, a young man ran into the kitchen camp and shouted at them: “There’s a fight, there’s a fight!”

Zhu Si stopped the work in his hand and faced the young man: “What are you talking about? Who fights who?”

The young man wiped his sweat and slightly relaxed his breathing: “We are fighting with Xiye Country, the other party suddenly launched an attack. We didn’t set a good defense here, so we received heavy casualties!”

When Zhu Si heard this, his face immediately turned pale: “If that’s the case, then aren’t we in danger? If too many people died and the reinforcements haven’t come yet, then does that mean we have to go to the battlefield?”

The kitchen camp immediately fell into silence. The atmosphere was so gloomy, no one wanted to go to the battlefield. No one wanted to die.

The young man waved his hand again: “No, no, if we go, who will cook for everyone? I heard that the generals in charge decided to send out the Iron Cavalry Camp and Black Battalion Army to fight against them. I heard these two battalions served under Price Jin. All their soldiers are brave and good in fighting.”

The fat man on the side immediately waved his hand and shook his head: “That was before, but now it’s impossible. Since Prince Jin disappeared, the generals of Iron Cavalry Camp and the Black Battalion Army have been convicted and arrested. The dragons now have no leader, they are now, just sleeping dragons. Their former spirit has long gone.”

Hu Feng looked up and stared at the fat man. He doesn’t look like a man from his enemy’s camp. And he somewhat looked familiar.

Zhu Si asked: “Who are you? How do you know this?”

The fat man sighed: “I am from the Black Battalion Army. I just came here to get some food. No one knows more about the Black Battalion Army than I do.”

Hu Feng asked the fat man: “Since the Iron Cavalry Camp and Black Battalion Army are now like this, why would General Hu send you to the battlefield?”

The fat man coldly sneered, “Do you still need to ask? It’s a good plan to kill two birds with one stone!”

Hu Feng frowned, his face turned black and ugly, as he clenched his fists.

Zhu Si asked: “I don’t understand. What do you mean by two birds with one stone?”

The fat man waved his hand: “It’s nothing. Forget it. There are some things that you shouldn’t ask. Just give me food.”

Zhu Si’s heart was tickled by his words, so he pulled him between him and Hu Feng: “Tell us about it!”
