"It's the first time we met. My name is Hua Mulan. Since you are already a member of the border guards, you don't need to be so restrained."

A calm and dignified female voice sounded above my head.I was startled, raised my head suddenly, and looked directly at the person who was speaking in front of me, my body tensed up straight in an instant.

"Yes, General Hua."

Suddenly there was a low chuckle from the side, but I didn't have time to pay attention to it.The aura of the beautiful woman in military uniform in front of me is too powerful, and it feels as oppressive as when I first faced my master.

After opening the imperial decree and closing it after a glance, she casually put it aside and said calmly, "Do you know what you are here for?"

"I know." I replied respectfully, "I am here this time to guard the border."

Not for meritorious service, let alone fishing in troubled waters. After all, I have been a gold medal subordinate of Yaotian for many years, and I have excellent professionalism in a line of work.

"That's good." Hua Mulan nodded slightly, her voice was cold, "Although you are the eldest lady of the Gongsun family, you are just an ordinary soldier here, and I will accept the attitude of the eldest lady when you were at home."

"...Yes, General Hua saw and taught him."

The sneer sounded from behind again, I didn't argue, I lowered my head and claimed yes.

What kind of young lady's habits... I really want to be a young lady and enjoy the blessings, but me?There are only two young ladies left in the family... enjoy the blessing, forget it.

I didn't dare to underestimate the people next to Hua Mulan, and I didn't want to deal with them too much. Anyway, my purpose was to promise Master to come here. The less people I contacted, the less likely I would be to reveal my identity.Well, it's decided, since they all think I'm the eldest lady of a family, then I'll set up a docile and restrained person.

"Hey, Miss Gongsun, what else can you say besides yes?"

An arrogant figure suddenly broke into my field of vision, the red head was particularly eye-catching in the big and pointed collar, but what scared me the most was the wolf ears on his head and the wolf tail behind him. Fear made me take a few steps back quickly when I saw the face grinning at me, and my body trembled involuntarily.

"Xuan Ce!"

Hua Mulan shouted loudly, and the young wolf boy withdrew his nasty smile, turned around and replied with a lack of interest: "Yes, captain." Then he turned back and curled his lips reluctantly at me: "I'm sorry, it's okay ?”

Hua Mulan frowned slightly, not sure if she was dissatisfied with Xuan Ce's impulsiveness or my cowardice: "Xuan Ce is like this, although he is a demon, but don't be afraid, he will not hurt you."

With great difficulty, I could suppress my fear of natural enemies, subconsciously folded my arms tightly, and smiled shyly at Hua Mulan to show my understanding.

"You can't do this! You are afraid of your own people..." Hua Mulan shook her head helplessly, and sighed slightly, "Forget it, what methods do you have to kill the enemy?"

The main event is coming!I took out the maple leaf dart that Li Yuanfang gave me from my sleeve, held the red maple leaves with my two fingers and thumbs, and rubbed them lightly, one piece became several pieces, and then swung my hand vigorously, the red maple leaves bloomed like a fan .Holding this handful of red maple leaves, I didn't throw them out, but swung my hand upwards, and it turned back into a red maple leaf.

"This maple leaf is my weapon." I added in a low voice, and put the maple leaf back into my sleeve.

"How can this be done? Don't say anything else, can you protect yourself with this fighting power?" Hua Mulan sighed.

"Yes." I nodded hurriedly, and suddenly wanted to be naughty, "Actually, the place where I have the highest combat effectiveness is the kitchen."

"kitchen?"

Everyone exclaimed in unison, and all eyes fell on me for a moment. I laughed twice, and said cautiously: "In the kitchen, no matter what seasonings, vegetables or meat..."

"You know how to do it?" The wolf boy Xuan Ce interrupted me curiously.

"No, I'll blow up the kitchen."

As soon as these words came out, everyone except Hua Mulan changed their faces to look like they were facing an enemy, especially the wolf boy Xuan Ce and the blue-haired swordsman who had been silent.

"Looking at it this way, you are indeed very powerful..." The black-haired uncle with bare upper arms scratched his head with a smile, but unfortunately his words did not play a role in adjusting the atmosphere.

"Then you don't come to the kitchen anymore. It's decided." Xuan Ce quickly came to a conclusion.

"Thanks for understanding."

Seeing the success of the trick, I felt a faint pleasure in my heart. Although I knew it was not moral to think so, I still couldn't suppress the bad elements in my heart.

"In terms of where to live..."

"I've brought the tent, and I've brought everything I need." I said quickly before Hua Mulan, looking at her eagerly, "I'm just waiting for General Hua to assign me a task, and I can carry it out at any time."

When it comes to tasks, Hua Mulan's expression is much more serious: "Every day is changing, because various changes will happen at any time, and the tasks will be terminated or started immediately. Sometimes it is to pick up supplies, or patrol, or Clearing up spies, it is even very possible... to fight. You are new here, and you must be exhausted after traveling, why not rest for a night, and come back tomorrow to take orders from the general."

"Yes, thank you General Hua for taking care of me."

I cupped my fists at Hua Mulan and walked out of the tent without looking sideways.I have more time to get to know other people in another day. My primary goal now is to put up the tent first, and sleep to replenish my energy.

With the guidance of the soldiers and the help of the coachman, I pitched a small tent on one of the empty battlements, and moved everything there.After lighting the torches beside the battlements, I sent the coachman off.

It was not completely dark yet, so I stood on the battlements casually, looking at the scene on the other side that I had never seen before, the yellow sand was everywhere, the weeds were sparse, and the end could not be seen from a distance, and occasionally a bird squeaked Squeaking and passing.

"It's always because floating clouds can cover the sun, and Changan's disappearance makes people worry."

Cang Jian's vigorous chant under the battlements aroused the sadness in my heart, and the tears gradually gathered in my eyes.Yes, I still feel reluctant to give up Chang'an, not afraid of the hardships of guarding the border, but only thinking about the sorrow of my old friends.

"Gongsun, guarding the border is not a joke, you will die if you are not careful."

Hua Mulan's voice sounded beside me, which startled me.In the midst of sadness, I didn't notice the approach of people. I was still too lax.

"Ok, I know."

Blinking to force the tears back, I raised a smile and looked at the torch beside me: "I will definitely not die, I want to go back alive."

Even if I know that if I want to fight against the demons, I may die in the war, but I will not back down. Surviving is my firmest belief since the moment I set out on the mission.
