Chapter 1290: Ambush
Nero saw that Bai Ruozhu didn't speak, he also quieted down, and he didn't dare to mention the prophecy about the barbarians. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, Chu Han in the carriage shouted Bai Ruozhu: "Ruozhu, Mr. Qingyan has something to look for you." ”
Bai Ruozhu thought that Qingyan was unwell, so she hurriedly asked Jiang Yichun to lead the horse, and she jumped into Chu Han and Qingyan's carriage.
She wanted to check Qingyan's pulse, but Qingyan waved her hand and said, "I'm fine, I just heard you inquire about the prophecy of the barbarians, and I want to ask why you asked about this?"
Bai Ruozhu was taken aback, "Do you know anything?
Qingyan knew that Bai Ruozhu was a little suspicious of him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "When I was young, I studied in Gaochang and made a close friend, although I stayed away from Gaochang later, we would meet every few years. He was doing clerical work in the temple, and he was lucky enough to come across the records of barbarian prophecies, and when he drank too much, he mentioned a few words to me. ”
Chu Han next to him couldn't help but prick up his ears, he didn't know how to speak these days, he was from the Western Regions, although his biological father was from Danliang, but he knew better the situation of the barbarian tribes in neighboring countries, especially that Santa, he was definitely not a person who gave up so easily.
"There was once a high priest of the barbarians who prophesied that there would be a person who blessed the barbarians, she could save the most powerful poisonous snake bites, and she could also save the people pulled away by the god of death, even if she was disemboweled, severed limbs and legs, as long as there was a breath, she had a way to save her, and said that she was not a barbarian, but she could bring earth-shaking changes to the barbarians. ”
"How is it possible? You have a broken stomach, but only the intestines are exposed, if even the intestines are broken, I can't save it at all!" Bai Ruozhu said a little speechlessly, then what kind of high priest is pretending to be a ghost, how can anyone be saved? If that was the case, she would not have almost lost her second brother in the first place.
Qingyan nodded, "I also think what the high priest said is too exaggerated, if that's the case, the emperors in this world can not die." ”
Bai Ruozhu saw that Qingyan told the truth, and although there were some myths, it was much more reasonable than Nero's statement, so she said bluntly: "I once met Santa, the prince of the barbarians, and he said that I was the one who was prophesied by the high priest, I felt that things were quite strange, and I didn't know what the prophecy was, but I think it was definitely not Nero who was talking about the king of the barbarians, but I am sure that I am not as god as the high priest said, and I am definitely not the person he prophesied." ”
Qingyan's face changed, and he said with some concern: "Santa, this person is very proud and stubborn, it is difficult for someone to move the things he believes, even if you are not, he will insist that you are, you have to be more careful later." ”
Bai Ruozhu's eyes darkened a little, stared at Qingyan and asked, "How do you know so much? I don't think a friend of yours told you, right? You don't look like a person from a small mountain village." I don't like cheating, so tell me the truth, or I'll have to take you on this journey. ”
She looked at Qingyan coldly, making Qingyan a little afraid to look at her directly, Qingyan sighed and said: "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell the truth, I used to be the son of a nobleman in the Western Regions, and my family also had some positions in the temple, and even I was once the successor of the family's favorite." As a result, when I was out on an errand, I was attacked by a fierce beast, and I woke up to find that it was a barbarian woman who saved me, and it was then that I realized that the barbarians were not as terrible as the legend ......"
Qingyan said, in fact, there are many ordinary people in the barbarians, they are also kind and simple, not everyone is as cruel as the nobles of Santa's animal breeding team, and they like to drink blood. He was a little curious about the barbarian woman, and when he came into contact with her, he found her kind and cute, and fell in love with her out of control.
But how could a nobleman in the Western Regions marry a barbarian woman, not to mention that he was the future successor of the family, he fought with his family for two years, and finally found an opportunity to escape from the family, and lived in seclusion with the barbarian woman, hiding in the mountains for decades.
But probably because their love is not blessed by God, they have never had children, and his wife died of illness three years ago.
His wife died, he had nothing to worry about, and when he was bored, he wanted to go out of the mountains and go to Gaochang to see his friend, but he almost lost his life.
Bai Ruozhu has always felt that Qingyan has an extraordinary bearing, not like an ordinary person from a small mountain village, it seems that she is really not mistaken.
"Which family is yours?" Chu Han, who had not spoken, suddenly asked.
Qingyan was a little embarrassed and said, "Gaochang Qi family." ”
Chu Han was stunned, before those disasters happened when he was young, as the son of a saint, he still had a very high status among the teenagers in Gaochang City. He remembered that the Qi family was indeed prestigious, he had a classmate who was the heir of the Qi family, and his father was the head of the Qi family, but he also heard that the Qi family's son was missing, otherwise it would not be his father's turn to continue the family business or something, and he wanted to talk about Qingyan.
It's just that the son of the Qi family left many years before he was born, and he only heard about it, and he couldn't be sure if it was Qingyan in front of him.
"Will you go back to your original family when you go to Gaochang?" Bai Ruozhu suddenly asked curiously.
Qingyan hesitated, "It depends on the situation." ”
He is old, in fact, he wants to return to his roots, he is sorry for his parents and sorry for the family all his life, and when he is old, he actually wants to die at home, and he can go to the ancestral grave to accompany his parents, but after so many years, he is not sure if he can go back.
"Let it be. He added.
Bai Ruozhu nodded, "You have a good rest, taking care of your body is the key, what else can you think of about the barbarian affairs, tell me about it." ”
Qingyan nodded, "Okay, girl, you go get busy." ”
The sentence "girl" made Bai Ruozhu stunned, at that moment she thought that she had seen her father Bai Yihong, but "girl" is also a name for young girls, not a father calling her daughter, but she was soft in her heart, probably feeling a little similar to her father, and she also had a good impression of Qingyan.
In particular, he will give up everything for love and live a reclusive life for decades, which is not something that any man can do.
She got out of the carriage and returned to the horse, and then whispered what Qingyan said to Jiang Yichun, and while the two were talking, Jiang Yichun suddenly pulled her, "Be careful!"
With a whoosh, a flaming arrow came from the side, grazed her horse's side, and struck the carriage behind.
"Someone is sneaking up, everyone be on guard!" Chenfeng shouted, and everyone protected Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun behind, and the formation was the one commonly used by caravan guards.
Immediately after that, arrows were shot out from the woods on both sides, and the jungle on both sides of the road was dense, making it a good place for ambushes.
