Chapter 11: Red Jewels (1)

In his previous life, Nangong Yu either rode a horse or walked, although he learned to sail in order to fish when he was a child, but it was just a small sampan boat common among fishermen. And at the moment, Anna's flagship looks like it can accommodate twenty or thirty people. The boat sails relatively smoothly and seems to be unaffected by the waves. Looking at the waves on the sea, Nangong Yu seemed to be in a better mood, not immersed in those things that he couldn't figure out. In this life, perhaps Nangong Yu is destined not to be ordinary.

"You're in a daze again. Anna's voice sounded in Nangong Yu's ears again, and when his eyes looked at Anna, he found that Anna had a beautiful stone on her hand.

"No, this is for you. Anna said softly, looking at Nangong Yu with gentle eyes.

Nangong Yu was stunned and looked at the stone in Anna's hand. This stone is red all over, without a trace of impurities, the whole stone is about the size of an adult's thumb, the round stone is cut into countless planes, the color is warm, and it is extraordinary at a glance.

Nangong Yu didn't take the stone immediately, but looked at Anna and said, "Why did you send it to me?"

Anna suddenly became anxious and said, "If you want to take it, you will hold it, why do you love to ask why?"

Although Nangong Yu was decisive in his previous life, he didn't seem to have any good way to face such a girl, and he didn't know what to say. He just took the stone and looked at Anna blankly, he didn't understand why Anna gave him this stone at this time.

Anna grew up in a large family, and she was the youngest daughter, so she naturally had a lot of love. At present, he is still the most prestigious young navigator in Venice, and his status is unparalleled for a while! Anna was born beautiful, and her status was high, and I don't know how many wealthy nobles broke through the duke's mansion and came to ask for marriage.

And often the more noble the girl, the more destined to become a political tool, and Anna is no exception. When she was a child, she always thought of herself as a simple aristocratic girl. But when the first nobleman came to the door to ask for her opinion, her father did not ask for her opinion, but began to discuss with the others how much benefit her marriage could bring, Anna Bingxue was smart, of course she understood what her father meant, she wanted to exchange Anna's future for more benefits of the family.

Nangong Yu's appearance undoubtedly suddenly made a splash in her cold heart, and her black eyes and mysterious temperament were all deeply fallen when Anna saw Nangong Yu for the first time.

Maybe Anna didn't know why, but the strong impulse in her heart at this time made her give her most precious ruby to Nangong Yu.

"It's a ruby, my dad gave it to me when I was a kid, and I always carry it with me," Anna said. In the future, you will help me keep this stone, and if I am not happy, I will ask you to get it back. ”

As soon as the ruby was in his hands, Nangong Yu felt that he was unusual, under the sunlight, the whole gem sparkled, Nangong Yu tried to inject a trace of internal force, and it actually made this gem more vivid.

Anna looked into the distance and said, "Ten years ago, when my father gave me this gem, I liked it so much that I always kept it with me, and many people asked me for it, but I didn't give it to him. ”

Although Nangong Yu had not had much contact with girls in his previous life, he also faintly felt something. The lovely girl in front of her, for some reason, has a strong interest in herself, and now, she is sending gems away, for a while, Nangong Yu doesn't know how to deal with it.

Nangong Yu looked at the red gem in his hand, stunned for a moment, he vaguely understood what Anna meant, but what he didn't understand was why Anna would choose herself, how could she get Anna's favor with a cloth dress.

Nangong Yu once asked himself, are you really willing to be ordinary in this life? The answer is no, now that the war is raging and the smoke of gunpowder is everywhere, a good man is a man who is a hero in troubled times, how can he take care of his children's affection?

But the girl in front of her, with eyes like clear water, is looking at herself with some expectation, to say that there is no throbbing in her heart, it is a lie.

After thinking about it, Nangong Yu said softly, "Do you like to listen to stories?"

Anna nodded lightly, looked at Nangong Yu curiously, and said, "What kind of story, you tell me, I like to listen to stories." ”

Nangong Yu turned around, faced the sea, greeted the sun, and said slowly: "In a distant country, there is a person named Xiang Yu. This man is incomparably large, brave and fearless on the battlefield, and unparalleled in the world. In order to resist the endless oppression at that time and lead the troops to revolt, he wore a battle robe and held an overlord spear, repeatedly broke the enemy, and no one could win, so he called himself the overlord of Western Chu. ”

Anna stood quietly beside her, looking at Nangong Yu with burning eyes, although she didn't know what some words meant, but she could probably know that this was a very powerful battlefield leader.

Nangong Yu continued: "He has a wife named Yu. She is as delicate and beautiful as a flower, and as radiant as the moon, just like you. With that, he looked at Anna.

Anna's face turned red, but she still continued to look at Nangong Yu and bravely met his gaze.

Nangong Yu paused and said, "He has a lifelong opponent named Liu Bang. Once, he was trapped in a place by Liu Bang, and his 100,000 soldiers and horses were surrounded by Liu Bang, and that night, in order to disturb his military morale, the enemy ordered everyone to sing the song of his hometown and force him to surrender. When Xiang Yu heard these songs, he felt that he could no longer defeat the enemy, so he could only say to his wife Yu sadly, it seems that we can only separate from each other. ”

When Anna heard this, she seemed to be in her shoes, and her eyes were slightly red.

Nangong Yu said: "Although his wife Yu is sad in her heart, for the sake of her husband, she has to force a happy face and say to her husband that the terrain here is very high, easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as we hold our troops and wait for the opportunity, we will definitely be able to win." ”

Anna hurriedly said, "And then?"

Nangong Yu said: "Xiang Yu returned to his barracks, thinking that he had been fighting all his life, but now he ended up like this, he could only drink and sigh, in order to relieve the grief and anger in his heart, he sang generously and sadly, thinking that my Xiang Yu is unparalleled in the world, but now that the times have changed, my war horse has been unable to run, only pity my wife, how should I settle her?"

Nangong Yu said slowly: "Her wife has never heard of such a sad time for her husband, and she knows that the days of her reunion with her husband are numbered, so she put on her most beautiful clothes and presented the last dance for her husband. At this moment, his men reported that the enemy had surrounded him and almost all of his soldiers had been killed. So he asked his wife to quickly put on the battle robe and break through with him. But her wife, believing that she could only drag her husband down, said the last sentence: 'If you go out this time, if there is an unfavorable situation, you must cross the river, return to your hometown, look for opportunities, and defeat the enemy.' After that, she suddenly pulled out the weapon from her husband's waist and committed suicide in front of her husband. ”

When Anna heard this, her eyes suddenly widened, and her reddened eyes looked at Nangong Yu faintly.

Nangong Yu continued: "When Xiang Yu finally broke through to the riverside, he felt that he no longer had any ability to fight the enemy, recalling that the soldiers he brought out from his hometown now only twenty-eight soldiers followed him, he felt that he had no face to return to his hometown, so he also committed suicide by the riverside. ”

Nangong Yu simply finished the story, but Anna had never heard a similar story, and suddenly felt dull in her heart, as if there was a big stone pressing down, and she couldn't speak for a long time.

Nangong Yu looked at Anna and said, "Anna, I'm different from you, not to mention my different identities, you are a nobleman, I'm just a commoner." I still have a lot of things to do, and you have your things to do. But I don't know which day, I may disappear, you better take this gem back, I have too much blood on my body, it will defile it. ”

After all, Nangong Yu killed too much in his previous life, and although he was reincarnated as a human, he still had endless tyranny in his heart.

Anna was stunned, looking at the child in front of her, who was the same as herself, and didn't know why he would say such strange things, but she didn't take back the gem, but held the gem in Nangong Yu's hand.

Nangong Yu was stunned and was about to say something, but Anna spoke first and said, "You take good care of this gem, there is no reason why I have never taken it back." ”

After speaking, he turned around and walked towards the cabin, as if he was saying to himself: "Even if you are Xiang Yu, what can you do? I want to live for myself." ”

Nangong Yu held the gem in his hand, looked blankly at the back of Anna leaving, smiled helplessly, and then, put the ruby close to his body, turned to look into the distance, and didn't know what he thought.
