I studied beheading in a mental institution

"Brother Qiye, who is he?"

In the distance, Wu Quan couldn't help asking as he watched Huo Qubing's back riding forward.

"Huo Qubing."

"It's that... Huo Qubing who sealed the wolf and lived in Xuxu?" Wu Quan asked in surprise, "Why do I sense the aura of [Dominating the Emperor] from him?"

"He was originally the [Emperor of Domination], and he was also the first strong man in the history of Great Xia to break through to the human ceiling." Lin Qiye explained, "At the same time, he is also the oldest founder of the Night Watchman."

Lin Qiye's eyes fell on Huo Qubing's back. The words of the other party not long ago lingered in his ears again, with a complicated expression on his face.

[Dominating the Emperor] Although it can make people grow to a terrifying level in a very short period of time, the price is also very high. Huo Qubing didn't say how long he can live, but Lin Qiye faintly revealed the eagerness from his eyes. Look, the life of this champion Hou is running out.

Hearing this series of titles, Wu Quan nodded in surprise, then seemed to think of something,

"By the way, isn't this the Western Han Dynasty? Why don't they speak ancient Chinese?"

Lin Qiye looked back at the 15-year-old boy, and explained with a light smile, "The ancient prose is written, and it is a refined language used by the ancients to record things. Their daily communication is in vernacular. However, colloquial things like vernacular Chinese are very prone to regional and time differences. For example, how many dialects are there in modern Daxia? Also, the speaking habits and ways of Daxia people in the [-]th century are also different from modern ones.

However, a hundred years can cause such a huge difference. If there is a gap of thousands of years, and the events are recorded in vernacular, modern people will look like heavenly scriptures.Thanks to the fixed written style of ancient Chinese, it is possible for future generations to understand history books. "

Wu Quan suddenly realized.

But he seemed to have thought of something, and asked puzzledly: "Brother Qiye, didn't you speak vernacular after a long time, and would it change? The Western Han Dynasty is more than 2000 years away from our era, why do I feel that they speak vernacular? The way is no different from ours?"

Hearing these words, Lin Qiye froze in place suddenly.

That's right...why do people in this era have speaking habits so similar to modern people?Even without considering the differences in dialects brought about by geographical location, the way the Western Han people speak should be very different from the modern ones due to the time gap of more than 2000 years.

Before Wuquan woke up, Lin Qiye didn't notice this problem at all. He thought it was the language magic array that Merlin left deep in his soul that had worked, so that he could communicate with the Western Han people without barriers... But Wuquan Why can you understand what they are saying?

Lin Qiye frowned and pondered for a long time, but he didn't have an answer... After all, he is not a professional scholar, so he can only put this doubt aside for the time being.

The army marched on the barren land. Since most of the soldiers were on foot, the speed was not fast. Lin Qiye didn't know where he was. He only knew that the sun in the sky was gradually sinking to the west, and they seemed to be far away from the desert.

Wu Quan followed Lin Qiye and dozed off while riding the horse. He didn't wake up until the army in front suddenly stopped.

"Why did you stop?" Wu Quan looked at the sky, it seemed that it was still early.

Lin Qiye didn't speak. After an unknown amount of time, a general rode to Lin Qiye's side, and said respectfully:

"My lord, Lord Hou is here to invite you."

Lin Qiye frowned, nodded and said: "Okay, I understand."

Lin Qiye turned his head and gave Wu Quan a few words, then approached the front of the army formation, and saw Huo Qubing, Zhan Yuwu, Yan Zhong and several generals gathered together, their faces were a bit dignified.

"Without the black dog teeth, the effectiveness of the exorcism formation would be weakened by half... Now that the evil spirits are rampant day by day, if we are stationed in the wilderness, it will be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth!" A veteran stroked his long beard. , solemnly speaking.

"What if we don't garrison? The nearest city is tens of miles away, and even if we arrive overnight, these [-] soldiers will not be able to enter the city. As long as they are in the wild, it is doomed to be dangerous."

"The spies we sent to the nearest city have returned, and they don't have black dog teeth..."

Everyone fell silent at the same time.

"How many days are we away from Chang'an?" At this moment, Huo Qubing suddenly asked.

"Going back to Lord Marquis, there are at least five more days." Yan Zhong replied.

"Five days..." Huo Qubing looked up at the gradually darkening sky, his brows were slightly frowned, "What if we travel day and night?"

"Day and night? Lord Marquis, there are a lot of evil spirits haunting this night!" A general reminded.

Huo Qubing didn't answer, he just frowned and looked at Yan Zhong.

"If we travel day and night and advance at full speed without sleep... we can reach Chang'an in three and a half days."

"What if we discard [-]% of the luggage?"

Hearing these words, the faces of all the soldiers changed, "Master Hou, what are you going to do? Although the evil spirits in the wild are dangerous, we shouldn't rush back to Chang'an in such a hurry, right?"

"Yan Zhong."

"If we discard [-]% of the luggage... we can reach Chang'an in two days!" Yan Zhong replied, gritted his teeth.

Huo Qubing nodded, "Send an order to leave [-]% of the luggage on the spot, and leave immediately at full speed, and make sure to arrive in Chang'an before the third night!"

"Yes!" Zhan Yuwu didn't hesitate, turned around and sent an order to the army.

The rest of the generals froze in place, seemingly unable to understand why Huo Qubing rushed back to Chang'an in such a hurry.

"Master Hou, that exorcising array..."

"Continue to set up the formation, even if there is no black dog tooth, the others will have some effect." Huo Qubing turned to look at the crowd, "After a while, the army will move, Yan Zhong, you go to the west wing, Songqing to the east wing, and Yuwu to lead the battle." People act as the forwards to open the way, I am in charge of the central army, and as for the rear wings..."

Huo Qubing's eyes fell on Lin Qiye, and he asked for advice:

"Lin Qiye, would you like to sit in the rear for me to prevent evil spirits from following and attacking? If you are willing, after returning to Chang'an, I will personally go to ask for the reward for you."

Everyone's eyes fell on Lin Qiye. Except for Yan Zhong, everyone's eyes were full of surprise. They knew that Lord Hou had brought back a young man from Xue County, but they never expected that Lord Hou would be so grateful to him. This young man takes it so seriously.

The rear of the army is the weakest and most dangerous position, and Master Hou asked him to guard it, which showed that he recognized his strength very much.

Lin Qiye nodded without much hesitation, "No problem."

After receiving Lin Qiye's reply, Huo Qubing's expression obviously relaxed a little. He quickly issued a few more instructions, and Lin Qiye immediately rode his horse towards the tail of the army.

The dim setting sun disappeared, and the world fell into darkness. Lin Qiye looked up at the starry sky while riding a horse, his brows became more and more wrinkled, and he spoke uncertainly:

"... Are these red stars closer than yesterday?"
