A Dream for a Hundred Years Chapter 1 Accompanied by the rivers and lakes
"You should be like a man, now that the people are displaced, eating people and eating tree bark, how can you bear such a tragedy?" the woman persuaded the man in white on the stage, but the man ignored it and drank the blood-colored liquid from the luminous cup in his hand.
"Whatever, what do you tell me to do?" the man glanced at her, a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth.
"Open granaries to help those who are affected and organize forces to resist the invasion of enemy countries. ”
"I'm not from the imperial court, so I have no reason to help those victims, and I don't have the strength to organize forces. He solemnly said, "No one can consult with me!" and then walked away.
The decision made by the Lord of the Smoke and Rain Pavilion was beyond doubt. There is no room for negotiation, this is a rule that people who have mixed the rivers and lakes know from the beginning. No one dared to question it, because the Yanyu Pavilion was the existence of the top sect in the martial arts and even in the world.
Today, if you say a word against the Yanyu Pavilion in the east of the city, you will find your head hanging on the wall in the west of the city tomorrow morning. There will also be a few words engraved on the face, and those who commit smoke and rain pavilions are an example.
The subordinates discussed in private, and felt that the pavilion master's temper was much better today, if it had been changed yesterday, the deputy pavilion master under the pavilion master had persuaded the pavilion master to surrender three times and twice, and the ** Peng who was slapped by the pavilion master slapped him on the spot, hung up without snorting on the spot.
This woman is really lucky, but is the life of a civilian really so heavy?
Of course it is important, in Ye Fei's eyes, the emperor's life is his life, and the life of the common people is also his life. Anyone's life matters. The Pavilion Master of the Smoke and Rain Pavilion - the most powerful person in the rivers and lakes and even in the entire Central Plains now, but he doesn't take other people's lives seriously. Although in this turbulent situation, human life is not worth a few dollars. But after all, he was also raised by his mother's father, so he doesn't have pity?
She had already been to the imperial court, and the emperor had already been so frightened by the news of the enemy attack that he fled with his concubine overnight, and there was only an old man left in the entire imperial court. Strangely enough, he was wearing a shroud, and she asked the old man, "Everyone else is gone, why don't you leave?"
The old man showed his only three remaining teeth and said, "What are you going to do? When you are old, you can go there? Fortunately, you can bury yourself on the spot if you die here, at least in your hometown, but the person who dies outside is not as lucky as me." ”
She was stunned, could it be that now even dying in her hometown has become a luxury, and it is also worth showing off?
"I said yes, the people are hopeless now. The voice sounded slowly, and a young man in white walked to her side, the fan in his hand waved gently, although it was early summer, she still felt that the wind of his fan was as cold as frost.
"How can you say such a thing?"
The young man looked at Ye Fei with deep eyes like the sea, and said word for word: "Isn't it?"
Ye Fei gritted her teeth and turned her head to leave, she really didn't want to stay with this cold-blooded person, because every time she stayed there, her heart would hurt.
"Stop!"
Ye Fei stopped, could it be that he wanted to promise himself? She turned around excitedly, only to see the young man holding a verdant jade pendant in his hand. Raised to her, "Yesterday, your jade pendant fell. ”
In the inn
There are surprisingly many people in the inn today, and those small merchants and vendors who are nowhere to be seen on weekdays are sitting together randomly, drinking wine and eating meat in large bowls with great pride. What's more, chickens, ducks, fish, geese and geese are placed in front of them, and they eat and throw a bite.
"What's going on?" Ye Fei was a little at a loss, these people obviously couldn't even afford to eat food, how could they ...... now? Ye Fei grabbed the little guy who was about to pour wine for the guest officer, and asked, "What's going on?"
"Oh, it's nothing, there is a rich man who fled the scourge of war who was killed here and robbed him of his money. ”
"Why didn't you report to the official?"
The little guy looked at Ye Fei like a fool: "The officials have all run away, where are the officials?"
"Yo, this little girl is pretty smart. A fat man with a knife stepped forward and wanted to touch Ye Fei's face with his hand, but Ye Fei pushed him away, "What are you doing?"
"What am I doing?" the fat man didn't seem to believe that Ye Fei would have the courage to push him. The big knife in his hand was revealed, and he said: "Anyway, the world is so chaotic now, and no one cares, what do you say I am going to do?"
Ye Fei: "You bastard. ”
A sword stabbed out, and the light and shadow were colorful. But her sword was cut in two by the big knife in mid-air, and the big knife was across her neck, and the slightest movement would have her head cut off.
"If you dare to move, you won't have a chance to live. A voice suddenly sounded, and the diners looked at the man standing at the door, who was a well-known local bully, and he was afraid that he would die today. The little guy sighed, then looked around and saw that no one was looking at him, and picked up a greasy chicken leg from a table and put it in his sleeve.
"Just you? The fat man smiled disdainfully, and the knife in his hand slashed towards the man, who unhurriedly kicked Ye Fei's broken blade with his toes, clamped it between his fingers, and swung it slightly.
It's like a dream.
The people present stopped their voices, and when they reacted again, they felt like they were suddenly separated from each other.
The fat man died, and his head rolled to the side.
Is this still a human trick? Everyone present has grown their mouths, and the unchewed chicken legs in the mouths of the little ones who are hiding behind the counter and gnawing on the chicken legs have also fallen out.
He stepped forward and asked Ye Fei, "Are you okay?"
Ye Fei: "It's okay, thank you." With that, he ran away with a red face.
He shook his head, looked at the people around him, his eyes were full of fear, and the sword in his hand moved, "Don't you like to watch the excitement? ”
The broken sword in his hand screamed every time it cut a person's eyelids, just a breathing scene, everyone lying on the ground and rolling in pain, they covered their eyes with their hands, and blood slowly trickled out of their fingers like a stream.
He glanced at the little guy who was already scared and urinated, and put a piece of gold on the table.
......
"Why did you destroy their eyes?" she asked, snappingly. She doesn't care about her outcome today, whether she lives or dies, she wants to ask why he wants to hurt innocent people.
"Because eyes are not something that people like them can have. ”
"This is just your excuse, an excuse to satisfy your killing!"
"You can choose to defeat me, and after defeating me, you can use my granary in the Smoke and Rain Pavilion to save those people. ”
"I will. All she left behind was a back and cold words.
She knew she couldn't turn back, because she had to confront the leader of a charlatan organization, and that confrontation was pointless.
No one would go crazy with her, because everyone knew that he was the most powerful one.
However, there is hope for those who persevere.
Just when she was about to whisper again to beg others, the old man who was sweeping the floor in the palace appeared, took out a book from his pocket and handed it to Ye Fei.
Ye Fei: "What is this?"
Old man: "What is recorded here are some martial arts cheats. “
Ye Fei frowned, what he needed was someone who fought against the Yanyu Pavilion with him, not a martial arts cheat. She was about to refuse the old man's kindness, but for some reason she put the book in her pocket.
I haven't heard from her for a few months, I don't know where she is now?
"Pavilion Master, Miss Ye is outside, please go out and make a bet with her. “
"Oh. "The Lord of the Smoke and Rain Pavilion is interested, dare to bet with himself?
In fact, it was very simple, the competition was heads-up, Ye Fei won the battle, opened a warehouse and released grain, and fought with her against the upcoming enemy army. If you can't win, stay in Yanyu Pavilion as a maid and serve him.
"You're a woman, let you make three moves, make a move. ”
The result was not unexpected, she lost, although he made her three moves but still lost.
So she was willing to gamble and lose to become his maid, and what she did every day was to serve tea and pour water, bathe and change clothes.
One day after March, he did not instruct Ye Fei to wash his feet as usual, and it must be strange that washing his feet at night had always been his habit, but he had broken this habit today, and all his men around his residence had withdrawn. It was a very eerie night.
She slipped into his room and hid on the beams.
When he was a child, he really came back, not one but two people, one was the master of the Yanyu Pavilion, and the other was a middle-aged man with a meaty face. Ye Fei was stunned, she knew this middle-aged man, wasn't he the supreme commander of the enemy generals and the most trusted person by the emperor of the enemy country?
She took a deep breath to relax herself, hoping that he had sent the enemy general here without knowing it, but someone spoke.
"Has the general decided to enter the city in three days?"
"If everything is really as you said, it will definitely enter the city in three days, there is no resistance in the city, all this depends on the master of the Smoke and Rain Pavilion. The position of the national teacher is none other than the pavilion master. ”
The two burst out laughing.
"Brute!"
The Lord of the Smoke and Rain Pavilion desperately covered his chest, but blood kept flowing out of his fingers, and the jade pendant on Ye Fei's hand was soaked in blood, and she used this to cut his chest. She wasn't going to attack him, but he blocked the killer blow for the enemy.
When she was stunned, the secret guards who were protecting the enemy general outside had already heard the voice and rushed in, and the enemy general held the master of the Smoke and Rain Pavilion in one hand and said, "Kill her." ”
The master of the Yanyu Pavilion was angry: "Don't kill her, someone must instigate her assassination today, for the emperor's safety to enter the city, she should be pulled back and tortured until she tells the instigator." In addition, the granary of Yanyu Pavilion has excellent rice, which is my last wish. ”
"Okay, I promise you. ”
"Sure enough, there is a loyal dog!" she couldn't believe that he had not only blocked the fatal blow for the invaders of the enemy country, but also planned for the safety of the enemy emperor when he was dying.
"I'm waiting for you in hell. She glared at him and said word for word.
It was the last time she saw him.
Three days later, she was already scarred and dying, but at this time, she was rescued, she was unconscious and could not see who the person who saved her, only felt that something on his body was very familiar.
When she woke up again, she saw the old man who was cleaning the courtyard, and the old man had taken off his shroud and replaced it with a new gray dress, and his face was ruddy, just like the old one.
"Miss Ye. Are you awake?"
At this time, Ye Fei had been in a coma for a whole day.
"How did I end up here?"
"A young man put you here. Also, the emperor and the general of the enemy country and the enemy army who entered the city died after eating the porridge made of the grain of the Yanyu Pavilion. The princes of the enemy countries are in turmoil for the throne. There's no time to care about us......" The old man was still chattering, but she couldn't listen to it anymore.
For she suddenly thought of what he had said before he died that night, and she seemed to understand something in her heart. She jumped out of bed suddenly, no shoes on, and ran towards the Smoke and Rain Pavilion, which had been reduced to a blank floor yesterday by a sudden fire.
She came to the place where she had last seen him, and on top of the ruins, the willow leaves on both sides were still verdant, and her face was not cold, but the drizzle had been falling, and her face was a little stiff.
......
"Is it really worth it?" the woman in scarlet said, holding her sword in her arms, looking at the building that had been set on fire not far away.
It used to be the most famous place in martial arts, but now it was destroyed by his builders.
"It's already done, what's worth it?" the man on the side closed his shirt after changing his medicine, so as not to reveal his scars that had begun to form calluses.
The man said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look elsewhere." ”
Just a few steps, the woman said, "I don't want to go with you." ”
"Why?"
"I'm afraid that one day you'll lie to me like you're going to lie to her. ”
The man smiled, "I want to, too, but I don't have anywhere to burn anymore." ”
The woman walked up to the man, stretched out her hand to face him, and said, "Bring it." ”
"What?"
"Jade pendant. ”
The man shook his head helplessly, handed the blood-stained jade pendant to the woman, and the woman's fingers swiped lightly, splitting it in two, and putting away the blood-stained herself.
"Do what?"
"After knowing each other for so long, there should always be something for us to confirm each other. ”
The man laughed, and so did the woman.
