Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

Chapter 335 Good Tea

That evening, near Baizhangyuan.

Looking at the spears and swords sticking out of the desert, Jiang Ming suddenly said, "I guess this is the Baizhang Plain where the beast Yanluo fought a decisive battle with General Youlan Dai'er and 300,000 soldiers three years ago."

"Yes, General Youlan is invincible and brave. Fortunately, she is here to quell the chaos of the monsters." Guanxing looked dazed, as if that shocking battle happened just yesterday.

"Well... since the late emperor died in the battle with the alien beast Wuxiang three months ago, General Youlan should have been still alive at that time. Why didn't General Youlan go to support him? Or was it because the two places were too far apart, causing it to be too late?"

"..."

Guanxing knew that Jiang Ming was too lazy to make the calculation, and it would be much more practical to ask her directly than to spend a lot of time thinking about it. However, just when she was about to answer, Jiang Ming suddenly walked in front of Guanxing.

"Let's not talk about it for now. We'll have to talk a little more. If the situation gets more serious, we'll have to take action." Jiang Ming said in a slightly serious tone.

In the endless Gobi Desert, there was a sound of galloping horses, and in an instant it appeared in the stargazing field of vision.

"The last general, Youlan, has been waiting here for a long time, Mr. Stargazer."

General Yulandel was sitting on his horse, less than ten steps away from the two people who were watching the stars.

"Hehe, I had expected that you would come here to stop us, General Youlan." Guanxing waved his feather fan lightly, without any surprise on his face.

"But the reason you are waiting here, is it to protect me, or to take my life?"

"I am here to take Master Guanxing back to Wushuang Camp for recuperation. Apart from that, I have no other intentions."

General Youlan turned her gaze to Jiang Ming who was standing in the front, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly with deep meaning in them.

Jiang Mingze smiled confidently and saluted respectfully to General Youlan.

"General, I am not talented enough, but I managed to bring Master Guanxing here unharmed."

Stargazing: "......"

However, General Youlan snorted coldly upon hearing this: "I thought you were a loyal person, but I didn't expect you to violate our trust. Not only did you not bring him back immediately when you saw Master Guanxing, but now you even dare to ask for a reward in front of me without any merit."

"I reminded you to be careful when we were parting, how dare you play tricks on me like this!? If I hadn't sent someone to check on you, how would I know that this is the only way for Master Guanxing to pass, and how would I have waited for you! If I hadn't done that, wouldn't you have taken Master Guanxing away directly? Do you still have me as a general in your eyes!"

Jiang Ming's heart was slightly moved, and he was about to explain: "General, there is a reason for this. I hope you will listen to my explanation. General Guanxing also has important matters to attend to!"

"Haha, you're just talking nonsense to buy time for your escape? You're really good at deceiving people, you rebel, take my shot first!"

General Youlan couldn't help but laugh in anger. As soon as he finished speaking, General Youlan tightened the reins in his hands and rode his horse straight towards Jiang Ming. Seeing that the spear in his hand was about to stab him, Guanxing strode forward and stood directly in front of General Youlan.

"——!?"

Upon seeing this, General Youlan hurriedly stopped his horse, with the tip of his spear only two inches away from Guanxing.

General Youlan exclaimed: "Master Guanxing, what do you mean by this? I originally entrusted this person to bring Master Guanxing back safely, but I didn't expect that he was a villain. He suddenly went back on his word and wanted to put Master Guanxing in this dangerous place. I originally wanted to take his life, why did you stand in front of my spear?"

Guan Xing shouted angrily and explained: "What a sophistry! If this person was not with us, we would have died in the forest before. General, do you know how many termites want to kill us? But even though the journey was full of difficulties, they were all resolved by this person. General Youlan, you know very little about this person, but I can guarantee with my life that this person has no intention of harming us."

"this......"

"What are you standing there for? Aren't you going to take me back to the Wushuang Camp? I happen to be a little tired."

Seeing Guanxing's attitude, General Youlan was of course happy to see it happen. So after looking at Jiang Ming deeply, he took the two of them back to the Wushuang Camp.

......................

A moment later, in the main tent of Wushuang Camp.

General Youlan took off his armor, revealing his snow-white arms, which, combined with the hairpin and decorations on his head, gave him a unique charm.

Guanxing sat in the main seat, while General Youlan and Jiang Ming sat on both sides. General Youlan looked at Jiang Ming.

"Alcohol is prohibited in the army and is replaced by tea. Please forgive me."

"No problem, no problem. Speaking of tea, I have some good tea here. If you don't mind, I'll make you a cup."

"I......"

"I will follow the general's orders."

Without waiting for General Youlan to say anything, Jiang Ming brewed a pot of fragrant tea in an instant and handed it to General Youlan respectfully. He also gave a cup to Guanxing on the way.

General Youlan: "......"

Looking at Jiang Ming's sincere eyes and Guanxing's nod, she had no choice but to pick up the cup of fragrant tea, smell it and found it very fragrant. She couldn't help but become a little interested in this tea.

And I was watching the entire tea-making process just now, so it was almost impossible to poison it.

Youlandel raised the teacup and took a sip. She felt the fragrance filling the air and lingering in her mouth. Her whole body seemed to be washed by a huge vitality, which made her unable to help but enjoy it.

"Good tea." General Youlan tasted it several times, savoring it for a long time, exclaiming with admiration, and even couldn't help but smile, "What's the name of this tea?"

"It's a very simple name - Life Tea. General Youlan must have tasted it. For General Youlan, who has been on the battlefield for many years, this is the best tea."

Immediately, Jiang Ming smiled and said modestly again.

"Moreover, being praised by General Youlan, this tea is worthy of its birth. If General Youlan wants more, I will give him 10 cans of tea. General Youlan should have seen my tea-making process just now, and the steps are not complicated. I hope the general will accept it and regard it as my previous unreasonable behavior."

"...You admit that this is unreasonable behavior?"

General Youlan gently put down the teacup, his expression returned to normal, and he quietly looked at Jiang Ming who was sitting opposite him. Guanxing was sipping tea continuously, and only stopped when he heard what General Youlan said, and also looked at Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming sighed in a deep voice, his face full of self-blame: "I am ashamed. Regarding this, I do feel guilty and will never shirk my responsibility. But I hope General Youlan will give me a chance to explain myself."

"It is the best thing now that Lord Guanxing is safe and sound. Moreover, Lord Guanxing trusts you so much, so I will give you a chance to explain." General Youlan took another sip of tea, and was full of admiration in his heart.
