Chapter 122: Unveiling the Curtain

The next day dawned, the soil of the mountains was soft and glutinous, the fog of the mountains and forests was still thick, the coldness of all things was waiting for the rescue of that ruddy dawn, nearly 2,000 cloth soldiers stationed in Qingyun Village withdrew from the camp and headed north, this was the first daytime march of Xu Cong and his party, they had no fixed destination, all routes were decided by Xu Cong alone, if anyone noticed, their team was approaching the capital of the Qin Dynasty in the north step by step.

Qingyunzhai left more than a dozen old and weak soldiers to guard, in Xu Congmei's name said that the reason for staying for the time being, they and several soldiers who robbed the birth gang were in charge of Qingyunzhai, but this small soil emperor did not serve for two days, and was killed by a mountain bandit in a nearby mountain with a hundred people, after a fight, there were no armor soldiers in Qingyun Village.

The mountain bandits who got a certain news and came to explore for wealth had almost no money and returned to their nests empty, but they were greeted by the severe encirclement and suppression of the officers and soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, and it was a bloody massacre, but the officers and soldiers did not find anything valuable in the mountains, but some people say that it was the mountain bandits who pushed things down the rapids behind the cliff, so the mystery of the birth gang was never accounted for again.

On 2 July, Luohu led the cavalry to raid the Panglu barracks, relying on the precise defense map, in the barracks of tens of thousands of people as if into a no-man's land, the day before yesterday Di Lang sneak attack on the Wohuashan military camp did not do, Luohu did it, not only burned down the temporary grain storage point of the Qin soldiers, but also turned around a group of Qin soldiers, and finally forcibly killed more than 1,000 people and left.

On July 4, Di Lang once again led the 36 C cavalry that had been temporarily supplemented to raid the Wohua Mountain military camp. But this time the invulnerable heavy cavalry fell into the pit as soon as they entered the camp, although they were strong, but at this time the armor soldiers from all directions surrounded them, the thistle terrestris was in front, the heavy cavalry pursued from behind, the 36th C cavalry was quickly captured alive, and the other half was trampled to death by the heavy cavalry. Seeing that the attack on the camp was defeated, Di Lang immediately took advantage of the heavy cavalry to break through the siege, and was defeated by an arrow and walked several miles.

The tactical victory of Wohua Mountain greatly boosted the morale of the army, and in order to ensure that the military camp was well prepared, a feast was held for a day to celebrate, and several commanders were also quite happy because of this victory, although there were not many trophies, but the victory was in the momentum.

Luo Hu was sitting on the edge of Chu Hong's bed at this time, and his eyebrows fluttered to tell Chu Hong about the battle situation last night, and the butterfly who came to deliver the decoction also pulled the corner of Luo Hu's clothes quite helplessly, and said: "Brother Luohu, people still have to recuperate, Doctor Zhou said not to be too noisy." ”

If Liang Jin or Lin Han came, Luo Hu would have scolded him back a long time ago, but it was a butterfly with an extremely gentle voice, which made Luo Hu smile awkwardly, and then stood up and was about to leave.

Chu Hong said: "Luohu, I want to go and see the fish girl, you can help me go!"

Luo Hu and Die were both stunned, Die handed over the decoction in his hand, Chu Hong drank it all, Die said: "Her injury is more serious than yours, I have been taking care of it for the past few days, but I can't get out of bed, but after all, there is a difference between men and women, if you have to go, I will arrange it." ”

Chu Hong said: "Trouble the butterfly girl." Butterfly walked out of the tent with the soup bowl.

Luo Hu stared at Chu Hong for a long time, hesitated for a long time, and said: "We have seen that woman, before me, Jiang Ming and Hanzi went to Jiaozhi City, and saw her in the Liuyan Fang, she almost hypnotized us with a dance song 'Pipa Seventeen Falls', if Jiang Ming didn't know the way to crack it, the three of us were very likely to be ingested by her." ”

Chu Hong was taken aback, and suddenly asked, "You haven't told us this." What was she doing at the Smoke Booth? I think it was a place of fireworks. ”

Luo Hu said: "We pretended to be hypnotized by her, Hanzi seemed to hear something, she wants to absorb our essence to heal her injuries, can the person in the world who can use this method to heal her injuries be a simple character? ”

Chu Hong said, "Why are you so strange today?"

Luo Hu said: "I know that you have been hijacked by a powerful person this time, and there is someone to deal with with you, you can call it a partner, but if you want to get to know someone, these are not enough." ”

Chu Hong pondered for a long time and said, "You want to say that she is a woman from the Demon Sect, I know this." ”

Luo Hu stared at Chu Hong for a long time, not guessing that he would directly guess what he wanted to say, and the worry in his Luo Hu's heart did not stop, his face was a little red, and said, "Do you really know?"

Chu Hong said: "I knew her identity before I met that person with a strong status, but even if she is a person from the Demon Sect, you won't care, I won't care, from beginning to end, the important thing is just that person." ”

Luo Hu wanted to say something, but when he saw Chu Hong's unquestionable expression, he swallowed again, and had to say: "Jiang Ming doesn't care about her identity as a demon sect at all, he tried to enlighten her that day, but he was disrupted by the appearance of Li Zhengxing's people, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask him." ”

When Luo Hu helped Chu Hong to walk slowly to the camp where Huanziyu lived, he was immediately attracted by the crisp laughter in it, Luo Hu shouted softly, Die walked out of the tent with a red face, followed by four women in black robes, Die Chuhong naturally knew, but he didn't know when these words and good-looking maids entered the camp, so he asked: "When did these women recruit?"

Luo Hu said: "They are the snake girls that Hanzi rescued from the Liu family, they."

The camouflage ability is extremely strong, and the snake tail can be covered by a black robe, as long as no one checks, ordinary people can't find out that they are different from humans. After they were rescued by Hanzi, they have been staying in the camp, and the day before yesterday, you and the young lady needed someone to take care of them, and Butterfly couldn't be busy alone, so Hanzi sent a few snake girls over, and at the same time found something to do for the snake girls. ”

Luo Hu and Chu Hong bowed their heads slightly to several snake girls to show respect, and several snake girls also bowed and slowly retreated, and Butterfly came up at this time and said: "This young lady has a rather cold temperament, I have no way to get close to her, if it weren't for the help of a few snake girl sisters, I wouldn't be able to take care of it alone." ”

Chu Hong snorted lightly and said, "Then you can go back first, I'll go talk to her, and I can go back by myself in a while." ”

Luo Hu and Butterfly hesitated for a moment, then slowly retreated.

Chu Hong lifted the curtain and walked in slowly, because there was still a layer of cloth curtain in the place where the bed was placed, so he didn't see the figure of the ringfish for the first time, but the ringfish seemed to have sensed who the person was coming, and said in a voice without any emotional changes: "Is it you?

Chu Hong originally wanted to ensure that his steps were quiet, but when he heard the voice of the ring fish, there was no need to disguise it more, so he said as he walked: "Doctor Zhou said that I injured the meridians of my arms by pulling the bow, and if I don't take care of my arms well, there will be sequelae, and those guys insisted on letting me recuperate for two days before getting up, and I was stubborn but dragged it out to today." ”

Chu Hong opened the inner curtain, Huanziyu was lying on the bed wearing only an underwear, and when he saw Chu Hong coming in, he turned around, and at the same time shrank into the quilt, and said coldly: "My injury will be almost healed in two days, I won't stay here." ”

Chu Hong sat cross-legged on the edge of the collapse and said, "Why? It's at least safer here than outside, with these brothers of mine to take care of, no one will know your identity, and they don't care." What's more, we have all experienced life and death, and if you can come to my place, I must also do the friendship of the landlord, right?"

Huanziyu was silent for a long time, and said, "Those women in black robes just now are not ordinary people, right?"

Chu Hong said righteously: "It was the snake girl who was rescued by my brothers, but don't worry, we have not abused and restricted them, they all stayed here voluntarily, I know the hobbies of those noble families, but my brothers are all serious people, they just take them in temporarily, and they have never been detained." ”

Huanziyu said: "Snake people are not human beings after all, but you can let go of your prejudices, and I can sense the truth of what you say from their expressions." I didn't have a good impression of monsters and the like before, and even like you humans, there was a life-and-death mentality. But after I experienced the destruction of the sect, Huo Ran's mind was much more open, they are actually no different from me, if they don't do evil, they are just poor creatures who have been forced by others. ”

Chu Hong sighed lightly with emotion, and said, "There are many people in the world who don't know where the way back is, and they are looking for a way to survive in confusion. These snake girls were sold here by the underworld trade after their families were destroyed, but fortunately they met Hanzi and they were spared another disaster. And you, Ziyu, you don't have anyone to rely on, right? I'm a little dull, and I don't have the decisiveness to help you, but I think I can be the one to help you. ”

Huanziyu was stunned, her body trembled a little, her eyes seemed to be brewing something, she raised her hand to wipe it, and laughed softly: "This is your newly learned method of coaxing women?"

Chu Hong also smiled and said, "Maybe, but this time I want to deceive you, I don't know if the girl agrees?"

Huanziyu said: "It depends on whether you are willing to cheat for a long time, I think the investigation period is a bit long." ”

Chu Hong was quite pleased, he understood that he had successfully opened the heart knot of the ring fish, even if it was only a little bit of light now, but the ring fish gave him a chance, which meant that he was no longer lonely.

Huanziyu's eyes rolled, his face was embarrassed, and he hesitated: "Can you ...... I want to talk to you more, but the butterfly girl said that your place is quite far away, or I would have gone to you with a dagger. ”

Chu Hong smiled: "Okay, I'll send someone to do it immediately." I'm honored to be your neighbor, so don't bother me if you bother me too much in the future. ”

Huanziyu shouted coldly: "You must get my permission to come in, if you dare to do anything rude, I will immediately pick up a dagger and cut your neck." ”

Chu Hong broke out in a cold sweat, pretending to be aggrieved and said: "Didn't I do that to protect you? I just shook your hand twice, and I never did anything bad, don't think of me as a fat-brained and lustful bastard, okay? Although my image is not very tall and burly, at least I can be regarded as half a decent gentleman, right?"

Huanziyu sneered and said, "Don't pretend, I don't know the dirty thoughts in your heart?" If you don't allow it, you won't be allowed to shake hands, if you dare to do it again, I will definitely not be able to spare you." ”

Chu Hong sighed again and again, and Huo Ran remembered what Luo Hu had said, and said, "Ziyu, ask you something, the day before we met, were you in the Liuyan Workshop in Jiaozhi City?"

Huanziyu's face tightened, turned around, looked at Chu Hong, and said eagerly: "I'm not a dusty woman there, I'm just looking for ......"

Chu Hong interrupted Huanziyu to continue talking, and said with a smile: "I know, you definitely won't be, and you don't need to explain this to me, I actually want to talk about you that day."

What happened, the people you met, were actually my brothers. ”

Huanziyu's body shook and said, "You mean, a little white face, a burly man, and a person with an ordinary body and appearance but extraordinary words?"

Chu Hong was stunned on the spot, and was a little confused by the description of Huanziyu, the little white face must be Lin Han with a handsome and fair face, the burly man refers to Luohu, who has a healthy body, as for the person who is very ordinary in shape and appearance but has extraordinary words, it should be Jiang Ming, but if the three of them hear this description of Huanziyu, they may be irritable.

Chu Hong said: "It should be, they all know the identity of your Demon Sect, but because of this, the negotiation is quite smooth, I also want to state one thing to you, the three people who appeared in the back that day were not all the way with them, and they never wanted to set a trap against you, the situation at that time was just a coincidence." ”

Huanziyu said: "Are you planning to whitewash them? But there is nothing to wash them away, at that time, I wanted to absorb their essence to heal myself, and they will take action against me, and then that person said a lot to me, I don't have any disgust, since they are your brothers, let them stop provoking me." ”

Chu Hong was accustomed to Huanziyu's indifferent tone, he understood that this was her instinct formed by being deceived and framed for a long time, and it could not be changed by ordinary means, since it could not be changed in the short term, he didn't have to bother to do anything, Chu Hong said: "It's good if you say so, as long as it's not a complete hostile state." By the way, how are your injuries?"

When Huanziyu heard this, he immediately turned around again, pulled the quilt to his body, and said: "It's nothing, the external injuries are insignificant, but the internal injuries are more serious, and now I have been drinking medicine to recuperate, and I think I will recover soon." ”

Chu Hong smiled bitterly: "Is it necessary to guard against me to this extent? I'm not a pervert?"

Huanziyu was stunned, and said righteously: "The heart of guarding against people is indispensable." ”

Chu Hong was embarrassed.

On the other side of the Wohua Mountain barracks, in front of Jiang Ming and Lin Han, there were six snake girls, and Lin Han taught them to learn fighting skills hand in hand, which was also requested by the snake girls, on the grounds that they could protect themselves. Lin Han couldn't refuse, so in his spare time, he took Jiang Ming to teach and practice in the mountains and forests on the edge of the barracks.

Correcting the posture of a snake girl using a dagger, Jiang Ming sat down to rest, looked at Lin Han and said, "Do you really want to teach them to be killers?" I know very well that this is not a self-defense technique, but a real fighting and killing technique, but they have a request for you, but you can agree so reluctantly, and even pull me to help, it is enough to see that the request is not simple." ”

Lin Han sighed and said, "I know I can't hide it from you, but they are not human beings after all, even if they are sent to Wohua Mountain, it is unlikely that others will get along with them safely." Their request is to stay with me, but it is not so easy to stay openly, to make the whole battalion admit it, and to get Lao Jin to agree. ”

Jiang Ming said: "So you want to train them into an assassination team, and then let them build up meritorious deeds? However, it is almost impossible to train them into assassination masters in a short period of time." ”

Lin Han said: "It is possible, although the number of their snake people is small, almost all of them have the instinct to be good at fighting, and the speed of mastering martial arts skills is far faster than ordinary people. And from the teachings of the past few days, I have also faintly sensed this instinct, no wonder there are constantly people in the Nine Fields who are threatening to slaughter the snake people, they should be afraid that the expansion of the snake people will pose a threat to them, or they covet the instinct of the snake people and want to get something from it. ”

At this time, the bewitching snake girl Hailuo slowly approached, because there were Lin Han's henchmen supervising all around, so these snake girls had all faded from their black robes and disguises, and they were dressed in black crop tops, coupled with their natural gorgeous appearance, which was enough to amaze the eyes of countless people.

Hai Luo bowed slightly to the two of them, and said with a smile: "Brother Lin Han, I feel that my application of the short dagger is already very good, I will show you, if there is anything wrong, tell me, I will correct it in time." ”

Lin Han waved his hand and called Hailuo over, and said, "Hailuo, rest for a while, I want to ask you something, you have to answer truthfully." ”

Hai Luo stood in front of Lin Han and said, "Brother Lin Han is our life-saving benefactor, I will definitely know everything I want to ask." ”

Lin Han said: "Do you like your current life?"

Hailuo said: "I like it very much, I don't have to be bought and sold as goods by those people, I don't have to be locked in a cage to watch, and I don't have to be whipped and kicked, we are helpless now, Brother Lin Han bothered to take care of us is already benevolent, where do we dare to have other extravagances?"

Lin Han and Jiang Ming glanced at each other, and the former said: "I understand what you mean, now you are all working hard to live, but the concepts of many people here have not kept pace with the times, and now is not suitable for you to live for a long time, and they are likely to hurt you." If one day I can return to the snake people, but I don't have to insist on staying to repay me, you know?"

After hearing this, Hailuo raised his hand and wiped his eyes sadly, and smiled reluctantly: "We will listen to Engong's words." ”

Helo slowly retreated, and there was a sadness in her eyes, which lasted for a long time.
