The following is an excerpt from the author's short story - "Snowy Love"
The army marched to a snowy valley, flanked by towering mountains, covered with snow without a trace of variegation, and they were in the middle of the recess, where the cold wind swirled like sharp knives, cutting the faces of the young soldiers, adding some iron-blue color.
General Lee looked up at the sky, and several black eagles were staring down on their group of intruders, each no smaller than a grown man, waiting for them to show their flaws and then hunt for food.
The environment was so bad, General Li rode on the horse with a grim expression, and at this time, a military advisor rode to his side from behind, and said uneasily, "General, the compass is out of order, we can't distinguish between north and south, we seem to have taken the wrong road, and the map does not show such a snowfield!" ”
"How so? Didn't we follow the directions on the map all the time? Do you know that if we don't have this batch of reinforcements, this battle will definitely be lost, and you and I will ...... blame for this crime" Speaking of excitement, General Li hammered down the saddle fiercely, the horse was frightened, and the front hooves were raised, but after all, it was professionally trained, and it was quickly quiet.
By the time General Li sat down, the military advisor had a look of fear on his face and said, "Speaking of which, a brave person like the general is afraid that he will not believe it, and the march of the army must avoid ghosts and gods, and we are afraid that we will encounter something unclean." ”
As soon as these words came out, the sound of Shunfeng spread far away, and many soldiers began to panic, and General Li said angrily, "Hugh is talking nonsense, and if you disturb the morale of the army again, don't blame me for being the first to take you under the knife." ”
Then, all of a sudden, the cold wind in the snow valley was several times more powerful than just now, and the snowflakes blowing made people's eyes hazy, and the horses were frightened and neighed, and for a time there was a wail of the soldiers one after another, and it turned out that those big eagles were not afraid of the wind and snow, and fell straight towards people.
"Strategist, I know how we can exit this snow valley and find our way again." General Li blocked the wind while holding a knife and fighting with the eagle, and asked loudly at the top of his voice.
I don't know if it was the wind and snow that swallowed the voice, or the military advisor unfortunately filled the eagle's mouth and did not answer his question, he stabilized the restless horse under him, and looked back, and a large mountain suddenly appeared at the intersection where he had entered.
He thought he was dazzled, rubbed his eyes and took a closer look, but it was really a big mountain out of thin air.
He had to ride his horse to the depths of the snow valley, trying to find a way out of this mountain, I don't know how long he had been galloping, his face was frozen and unconscious, and suddenly a warm wind blew, and he squinted and saw that the depths of the snow valley were actually the scenery of spring flowers.
"Wonders." He sighed secretly, his mood relaxed slightly, but an ethereal female voice sounded, "If you want to get out of the snowy mountain, can we make a deal?" ”
"Who are you?"
"The world calls phantoms demons."
"What's the deal?"
"If you can keep the things you saw me today for the rest of your life, I will keep you glorious for the rest of your life, otherwise, you will lose your life."
"It's better to die after all, it's better to gamble." General Li's hand clenched the saber at his waist tightly, and as soon as he spoke, a delicate and bewitching face appeared in front of him out of thin air, and then magnified several times, the woman was floating in the air, her body was like smoke, and she only had one head, and she pressed her forehead against his forehead, and laughed, "Interesting." “
Then it disappears.
Two
Gambling about one percent, the snow demon as promised, the snow mountain really disappeared, but it is a pity that those soldiers who followed him were buried in the mouth of the eagle, he went to the battlefield with mixed feelings, he wanted to bear the guilt, but was invited to the banquet, has been on the battlefield to support the pioneer Zhao Chuan, who is waiting for reinforcements, swept away the tiredness at this time, the whole person was in high spirits, took off his armor and put on a plain clothes, and respectfully sat under General Li's seat.
When the wine and meat were served, General Li always sat still, and the destruction of the whole army in the snow valley made him brew again and again, and he couldn't speak.
"Thanks to the general's timely rescue this time, I was able to end this bitter battle with our army, and this glass of wine, Zhao Chuan did it first."
General Li was stunned when he heard this, the wine glass in his hand reflected his distracted face, his brain was in a mess, what happened later seemed to be placed in a dream full of poppy flowers, after drinking he was taken to the training ground by Zhao Chuan, those brothers who died tragically in the snow valley, actually stood alive under the stage one by one, looking at him with the once familiar reverence eyes.
But only he could see that under the dark sky before the rainstorm, above their heads floated the green phosphorus fire of hell.
This situation is really creepy.
He couldn't remember what Zhao had said, but he thought it was something to the effect of some compliments, and returned to his mansion in Chang'an again.
Glory and wealth, everything in one night, because of this, General Li said that he was ill and began to close his doors.
However, every time I dreamed back to midnight, the day's transactions in the valley became clearer and clearer, and the ethereal female voice lingered in my ears all the time.
Undoubtedly to keep a secret!
After a long time, this secret is like a cold knife hanging over General Li's head, which will fall at any time.
Three
Zhao Chuan invited General Li to drink and catch up.
Recently, it has been rumored that General Li is suffering from heart disease, and the servants in the mansion have been poisoned by him to become deaf and mute.
But the Holy One still trusted him, and the rewards continued. Rather, people are only mistaken for rumors spread out of jealousy by other bureaucrats.
Until Zhao Chuan saw it with his own eyes.
General Li never answered the invitation of outsiders, and this time it was Zhao Chuan who impressed the other party with his comradeship on the battlefield, but the place to drink was only allowed in the Li Mansion.
When Zhao Chuan stepped into the mansion, there was a chill behind him.
It's not that he hasn't been to the Li Mansion, he is an official of the same dynasty, and they are all military generals, so it is common for him to visit the house.
But what he was in front of him was not the Li Mansion in his memory.
It was so quiet that it was eerily quiet, and the servants came and went like ghosts, and they were silent.
General Li also seemed to have changed, his heart was heavy, and there was a heavy cyan around his eyes.
When the wine was drunk, he couldn't help asking, "What is the general so unspeakable?" ”
In one sentence, the general's face changed in an instant, he pulled out his saber, and the servants who poured wine knelt down to beg for mercy for Zhao Chuan, opening their mouths without a tongue, and only making a whining sound.
General Li sobered up and quickly put away his saber to apologize to Zhao Chuan, but Zhao Chuan was shocked and left the table.
Four
General Li only felt that there seemed to be a monster in his heart.
Whoever hears someone asks, he will mistakenly think that someone else wants to spy on his secrets, and whoever is close to him must be deaf, dumb and disabled before he dares to reuse it.
This state of affairs lasted for more than a year, and considering that he was still not married at an advanced age, General Li's eldest brother in the far north was good at advocating and told him about his family.
The girl is a young lady of a declining clan in the north, although her background is not high, but the reputation of a talented woman is very famous.
It was in the middle of winter when the snow was falling, and he was carried into the Li Mansion by a fine soft sedan chair, and at night in the new house, General Li took off the red hijab on the other party's head, the beauty of the other party.
After a hurried drink, he changed into his regular clothes, and still turned around and went to sleep in the attic.
A few days like this, when he woke up early in the morning, he saw his wife who had just married kneeling down with tears on her knees, and then covered her tears with her sleeves: "My husband has never been close to the concubine for a day, but the concubine has not done well." ”
The appearance of the beauty crying was pitiful, and the faint fragrance of the stove burning in the house filled the room, refreshing the heart, and General Li didn't know how to respond for a while.
Suddenly, I saw my wife quickly take out a dagger from her sleeve and put it in front of her lips, "It's better to let the concubine be deaf and silent, so it is also a blessing to be close to the husband." ”
"Nonsense!" He rushed out of bed barefoot and snatched the dagger, and his wife finally threw herself into his arms and began to cry.
Hearing this cry of sadness, thinking that Xu had been suppressed for more than a year, General Li followed and shed a line of tears.
