Chapter 249: Divine Punishment
The woman dreamed of a burning battlefield, she only had to suck lightly, the smell of blood, corpses, burning firewood would enter her nasal cavity, and there was a foul smell in her breath, and those dying soldiers stared at the sky with wide colorless eyes, and stretched out their hands to the sky, she watched them whimper in pain, silently moving, and not paying attention to everything that followed.
She was in a half-dreaming consciousness, she could feel herself lying on the warmth, but she couldn't move a finger, her eyes slipped from the corners of her eyes, and she was dying in pain, but she wouldn't die, the phoenix was still in her body, haunting her like a ghost, she was so weak that she didn't even have the strength to moan at this time, it was slimy, she wanted to soak in the cold spring water to dispel that feeling, but now she could only lie here like a baby, waiting for death? Unbeknownst to her, there was a sound of footsteps nearby, the door seemed to be opened, someone came in and did something, and after a while, the sound was completely gone.
She went back to the dream just now, the color in the dream slowly disappeared, only the orange red brought by the fire, and the blood red spilled out, flocks of crows descended on the battlefield to devour the rot, and when they were full of food and drink, they rose away, like an angry black cloud left the battlefield, the moat was still burning with flames, the charred wreckage slowly sank into the water, the young man in clothes like snow pointed at the clouds on the city wall, the thick black clouds went straight to the sky, the red cannonballs crossed the starry sky and fell into the city, wisps of white ash fell from the clouds like snow.
Chu instantaneously called...... It's worthy of her students, they kill the same number of people, Hua Youyue thought to herself.
The world in the dream was silent, the dead on the battlefield began to wake up, they stood up and started talking, their voices were like sobs and moans, and they slowly walked in their direction, they wanted to go home, they wanted to escape from this battlefield, they longed to see their own people, Hua Youyue's family died a long time ago, she would not and did not want to experience this feeling of losing her loved ones, thinking carefully about it, it didn't seem to be a painful thing to die on that battlefield, she didn't have anyone to worry about, no one was worried about her, Emperor Yin took a fancy to her strength before she came to this battlefield, and the United States said that she sacrificed her life in the name of the country and cleared her nameγ
Sacrifice your life for your country...... What a self-deceptive lie, the prince will enter and exit the king's gate, the brocade clothes are fluttering and high-spirited, who knows how many iron armor is wrapped in dry bones?
She didn't know how many people she had killed, in short, there were many, many people, countless dead people came towards her, their faces were sluggish and stiff, the congealed blood stuck between their temples, some only half of their faces were left, the blood was blurred and terrifying, there were gray chrysanthemums on the rattan armor, the rattan armor was full of knife marks, ragged, and fragile as paper, I didn't know any of them, but why did I kill them, Hua Youyue thought to herself.
For her, it is easy to kill one person, and it is easy to kill a hundred and a thousand people, but every time she kills a person, it will cause a thousand family sorrows, a thousand widows, a thousand orphans, and four thousand old people
γ
She walked from one battlefield to another, this shattered and overlapping dream, she saw everything about the battle of the West, the battlefield was covered with blood, the girl in black lay huddled and trembling in the river of blood, surrounded by mountains of corpses.
All her sorrows began in the battle of the West, and if she took a wrong step, it would be a lifetime.
The euphorbia warriors in the west were pierced by their own halberds, tilting their heads, their bodies pulling out a long shadow in the setting sun, a gust of blood wind blew, and the corpses opened their eyes one after another, staring at her, and the iron halberds behind them began to burn, and they screamed violently.
She stood in front of the burning mansion, the families of the dead soldiers pointed at her and scolded desperately, and threw rotten vegetables and eggs on her, she ran to the golden palace, and watched her sister hang herself in front of the Taiqing Palace with a zhang of white silk, Chu Xiaohua killed his brother and her brother-in-law in front of the hall, and the woman looked at her and said softly: "Yue'er, you are tired...... Drop everything and come to us. β
The girl screamed as she ran, she had no sword in her hand, no weapon in her hand, she ran like a ghost in the palace, and the samurai with iron spears behind her chased her, and finally she slammed open the red gate and fell to the ground curled up and sobbed.
Who will save me, she is exhausted, who will come to save her, gods and Buddhas, demons or demons, take her out of this human purgatory wrapped in a golden shell, for which she can pay for everything.
But the gods and Buddhas didn't come that day, and the demons didn't come either, and the moment the exhausted girl looked up, she saw a red guqin placed in the center, and there were dots of light around it flowing, as if it was from an eternal holy relic.
The girl tiptoed towards the long qin, someone was talking to her, and when her fingertips touched the guqin, the whole person was bathed in warm light.
Since then, she has been fearless.
She dreamed repeatedly, but this time it was finally no longer a nightmare, she dreamed that she was sitting in the courtyard of the palace, all the soldiers raised their glasses to her, Chu Xiaohua smiled at her with satisfaction, her parents and sister were still alive, her father's temples were white, her mother and sister were still beautiful, Chu Xianzhao sat beside her, hugged her shoulders intimately, and the two laughed and laughed.
When she woke up again, it was completely dark, her head was still chaotic, she pulled the quilt and sat on it, the things in front of her changed from blurry to clear, the top of her head was a white mosquito net, lying on a warm feather, this is the room arranged for her by Nangong Mingyue, the room is very warm, maybe a little stuffy.
She slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, pushed the quilt away, and her head was like a fever, but this simple action, the pain drilled into her head, so she pushed the quilt away and didn't want to get off, her head was heavy like a stone, as if she had lost consciousness, she slowly recalled the previous events, and after she fell, she saw an iron cavalry army suddenly attacking from behind Yan Fu, flying scarlet cloak, someone carried her to the horse......
Meng Yu...... The man was
Meng Yu, when did Meng Yu come to Jingnan City? She was puzzled, and suddenly felt that the thin brocade clothes on it were very sticky, and raised her hand to untie the back rope, anyway, there is no one here, take off your clothes first to cool off, these subordinates are too, don't you know that it is the height of summer? and put such a thick quilt on her, she was not killed by the Yan people on the battlefield, but was killed by your quilt.
A gentle cough came into her ears, and she immediately covered the good light in front of her, and said coldly: "Who!"
"Xiaoyue, it's me, Meng Yu. Meng Yu was still wearing the iron armor, sitting on the low couch with Erlang's legs crossed, he saw Hua Youyue wake up, and was about to come over to help her, the woman immediately pointed at him with her fingers, a strand of silver thread intertwined on her fingertips, which could penetrate his iron armor at this distance: "How long have you been here? Get out of here!"
The man raised his hands helplessly, indicating that he had no malicious intent: "You are seriously injured, don't act rashly, I brought you back, remember?"
The woman looked at him and nodded slowly, "We won, right?"
"Win, Yan Yu people have retired from the army, you have done a good job, and the teacher will be proud of you. Meng Yu said.
"What about Chu Xianzhao, is he okay?"
"I was hit by a cannonball from the Yan people, and I was seriously injured at first, but I heard the eldest prince say that he just woke up in the afternoon, and now he can be active, how can his physical recovery ability be so strong? β
"He has the king's breath in his body, you know...... Uh, my head hurts to death, bring me a drink, and we'll have a good talk. Hua Youyue leaned on the couch, rubbing the sore sun, Chu Xianzhao was fine.
"Satsuki, I don't recommend you to drink...... Your Hurt ...... Why don't I have someone to bring you something to eat?" Meng Yu asked cautiously, how could he have the domineering of ten thousand people in the battlefield at this time, and the tone of his voice to Hua Youyue was like that of an elder brother to a younger sister.
"Take it, or get out!" Hua Youyue said unceremoniously, Meng Yu seemed to have received an old punch, hung his head and left, and after a pot took a pot of rice wine mixed with water and came in, Hua Youyue held the palm of her hand, and snatched it into her own hand like a thing in the air, the rice wine tasted nothing, like water, she drank a pot and let Meng Yu take a pot in, and after drinking both pots, the whole person was much more energetic.
"I'm angry, you can come with us. Hua Youyue broke the silence and dropped the bottle on the ground.
"His Majesty the Emperor's order, we can only carry it out, to be honest, I really didn't expect the third prince of Chu to actually set fire to the ship, but in this way, the city can lose any defensive ability, the drawbridges at the east gate and the south gate are stuck on the ground and can't rise, we are now opening the city gate to face the Yan Yu people, this is what you taught him to do?"
"No, he didn't tell me that he would do it, which was really unexpected, I expected that I should have fought this war for him, and he just had to live until the end of the war and enjoy the glory
That's it, first...... This really shouldn't be the prince's doing, he's still so young. Hua Youyue shook her head.
"I understand that this is not what a prince should do, but his brother was younger than him when he participated in the Battle of Yunjian River, and now he is here too. Meng Yu said.
"Is His Majesty the Emperor crazy? Send both sons to the battlefield, what if something happens?" Hua Youyue was shocked.
"Your Majesty only has his arrangement, we will do it, you have made great achievements this time, I have sent this incident back to Lin'an City with carrier pigeons, His Majesty the Emperor should know, maybe you will be rewarded when you go back this time." Meng Yu smiled, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes seemed to be carved out with a knife.
Hua Youyue said calmly: "You know who I am, and you know what I have done, their corpses are still lying on the gentian, and the truth is there." β
"You didn't talk like that before, and it's not your fault that the Battle of the West Frontier is! How old are you this year, twenty-five, thirty, and who's going to marry a woman like you. Meng Yu said to her in a tone of lesson: "You are already standing on the edge of a cliff, and you would rather jump off than ask for help?"
"I am twenty-eight years old, and I was eighteen years old at the time of the battle of the West, and I killed more than 10,000 people. The woman said in a hard tone.
Meng Yu has a black face, she is really different from ordinary ladies, she likes to dance and play with swords since she was a child, she looks very much like his master, but Ge completely follows her father. When he was six years old, he secretly hid the sword given to him by the teacher in the boudoir, and after being caught by himself, he confidently said that a broken sword was so rare, and swore that if someone came to marry her in the future, he would definitely bring two carts of iron swords and spears to her door to ask for marriage, which made Meng Yu smile bitterly.
"What about you? Why don't you marry that eldest princess? You are also in your thirties this year, and those people in Yinguo who married early may have become grandfathers. Hua Youyue sneered, and after a long silence, Meng Yu laughed instead: "How do you know that His Majesty wants me to marry the eldest princess?
Hua Youyue didn't speak, just looked up at the mosquito net, Meng Yu smiled and sat on the side, she immediately shrank and reprimanded: "Don't get close to me, why are you sitting so close? Believe it or not, I shouted that you were insulting me, how can you, the Wind Eagle Iron Rider, still have the face to be the commander?"
"The man who dares to force you hasn't been born yet. Meng Yu made a rare joke: "But you really did a good job this time, many people in the city have been clamoring for you to be executed, and there are even people who have offered you a lot of money to reward your head, including many court officials, and His Majesty the Emperor has always protected you, but you regard him as his enemy......" The man sighed.
"I don't want to die in Yinguo, who can kill me?"
"That's the confidence that Phoenix Qin gave you, Miss Hua Youyue. Meng Yu couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Overuse of divine weapons will hasten your death, if you still want to live until your hair turns gray." β
"I'm the parasite of the phoenix, if I don't make it
If you use it, the gods will absorb my life force, and I will still die when the time comes...... I suddenly found out that Meng Yu said a lot of nonsense, who the doesn't die in the end, lying on it is also death, and dying on the battlefield is also death. Hua Youyue said: "Since the end is there, why bother with the process, just do it." β
"Alas......" Meng Yu was so angry with this girl that she had nothing to say, and the two fell silent. Someone knocked on the door: "General Meng, General Zhang Heng, they are all waiting for you." β
"Let them wait, the night is still long anyway. Meng Yu said indifferently, turned his head to look at Hua Youyue, but found that the other party was crying.
"I don't want to die...... the woman choked up, "I want to live forever, live forever." β
Meng Yu hugged her and wanted to give her some comfort, but Hua Youyue immediately pushed him away the next moment: "It's so cold, your armor is so cold, like a dead man's body." β
Meng Yu was not only angry, looking at her curled up in the corner, he only felt deep guilt in his heart, his iron hand that was frozen in the air was finally put down, put it on top of her head and rubbed it gently: "I have a lot of work tonight, let's leave our problems until next time, don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you." β
"Don't say such things, those who said they would protect me are dead, like Li Changyuan. The woman said quietly.
He looked at the woman in front of him again, her cheeks sunken slightly, and she looked like she had suffered a lot.
When he reached the door, he put his elbow against the door and whispered, "I have something to tell you, that one of your cousins died." β
The woman suddenly looked up at him blankly: "Dead?"
"Qian Li, right? I advise you not to look at it, but I took a look at it later, and it was indescribable...... He must have been killed by the Yanfu people in the chaos, and then trampled by our charge......" Meng Yu said.
How could he die, didn't he follow Chu Xianzhao? Chu Xuanzhao didn't die, how could he die, that child who was full of energy since he was a child and liked to dance and play with swords like her, was finally killed by a sword? She didn't even have the face to go back to Lin'an City to face his parents.
Hua Youyue bit her lip hard, almost biting blood: "I don't believe it...... Where was he? How could this be? The boy was only seventeen years old...... I'm going to see it with my own eyes. β
Having said that, she couldn't exert any strength at all, so she could only lie down and moan softly, Meng Yu looked at her sadly, closed the door and left.
The gods and Buddhas still punished her...... It was the only thing she thought before she fell asleep.
......
......
The afterglow in the bedroom is still there, Chu Xianzhao looked down at the scar on his wrist, Su Nianyu slept very lightly, maybe looking at the young man in front of the table, the quilt was kicked to the ground by her, under the reflection of the candle flame, the woman's graceful body was as light as a distant mountain, showing a soft curve, Chu Xianzhao looked up at her body, and couldn't help but be fascinated, he felt like he was rewarded, he guarded the city, protect
Protecting the people inside, this sense of accomplishment makes me extremely intoxicated.
Now that the shadow of the war has gone a little far, then he is now very focused on playing with the mutton fat beauty in front of him, he pities her feelings very much, maybe he has great concentricity for those women who are floating in the world, he takes into account her feelings, his hand gently caresses Su Nianyu's face, the woman's skin is so slippery that it seems that her fingers can not go in if she sinks slightly, Su Nianyu slowly opened her eyes, the misty eyes made Chu Xianzhao pity the suffering she encountered, and the young man's melancholy eyes were like a whirlpool, sucking her whole person in, it was a whirlpool that comforted herγ
She asked in a very low voice, "Will you let me die in your arms?"
Chu Xianzhao said without hesitation: "I won't let you die." β
It's just such a simple sentence that made Su Nianyu's tears gush out, she has been being used and abandoned, there are some things she doesn't believe anymore, she still asks uneasily: "I'm a very bad woman, you still want to-"
Chu Xianzhao suddenly lowered his head and kissed her, otherwise she continued, the letter this afternoon made his heart very bad, after Chu Xianzhao came to her room, he wanted to see her and leave, but just looking at it made him ** high, he couldn't help but climb up and kiss her lips, until the woman trembled and let out a high groan, Chu Xianzhao felt that the time had come, and couldn't help but give her great satisfaction.
In this process, Su Nianyu realized that Chu Xianzhao's belly was full of thousands of pounds of poems and books, Chu Xianzhao actually said sweet words in her ear for half an hour, and the poems from the past and present came easily, and her hand never stopped groping on her, she just instinctively accepted his aggression and teasing, and the tingling feeling made her cry involuntarily, Chu Xianzhao deliberately slowed down her movements, even so she couldn't help but beg: "Stop, let me rest for a while......"
Chu Xianzhao thought as if he was thinking of something, and his voice was full of teasing: "Didn't you say that you were up there tonight in the afternoon?"
"I ......"
After venting, Chu Xianzhao took her into his arms, he slowly stroked her son, giving her comfort and gentleness, Su Nianyu also subconsciously hugged him tightly, this child is really different from other men, she saw more of the kind of dedication to women when she was in the Qinglou, the two laughed Yan Yan walked into the room, and after venting, he suddenly remembered that he still had a family and children, and the woman who left him ran away in a panic, making those women fall into a deep loss.
"Leave me alone. Su Nianyu begged, this kind of person's voice made him want to pick up the gun and get on the horse again, Chu Xianzhao pressed her proud department, touched your red lips, and sighed in her heart: "Your mouth seems to be a little swollen, is it that I kissed too hard?"
"You!" Su Nianyu got angry, pushed Chu Xianzhao away from above, and came to the bronze mirror with a light veil and lit the oil candle, the petal-like red lips are really red now, and the head is full of green silk messy, as if it came from a water tank
Fishing it out, remembering his seemingly never-ending collision just now, Su Nianyu bit a strand of hair, and her face was flushed with shame.
Su Nianyu said bitterly: "How can you let me meet people tomorrow!"
"Then you can rest here, wait until your lips are swollen and then go out, I will bring you food, saying that you are not feeling well and have menstruation. Chu Xianzhao grimaced at her in the mirror, and suddenly reached behind his hand, hugged her back around the willow waist, and blew out the candle flame by the way.
Su Nianyu looked at his face, blinked his eyes, and slowly fell asleep, Chu Xianzhao leaned on her shoulder, he hoped that he could live in this short dream. "War, death, this long and magnificent game, thousands of people died, ten thousand people wailed, and the feeling of the two seemed so insignificant...... I'm going to have the strength, the power to protect all the people of the heart, I'm ......
Just her.
