Chapter 23: The Old Year (2)
The sword style has been closed, the song is not finished, and he whispers softly, softly like the cool moon that provokes remembrance in the north of the country. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Hua Jiang put down the wooden sword and looked in the direction where the flute came from in surprise.
Under the dark blue sky, the young man sat cross-legged on the wall casually, his slender and bony hand holding a red jade flute blowing quietly, his long crow-colored eyebrows drooped low, covering the pair of cold phoenix eyes on weekdays, and a azure robe was leisurely lifted by the evening breeze, revealing an ethereal aura that did not belong to this earthly world, as if if he didn't notice it, this person was going to go with the wind and the moon.
Hua Jiang jumped up on the wall one by one, blinking at his side obediently with big cat eyes.
At the end of the song, Yun Yi opened his eyes slightly and turned his head to look at her, and said with a little relief: "Ah Jiang's martial arts are now very good. ”
"If it weren't for your song, brother, I don't know how long it would have taken for them to come together." Hua Jiang propped up his chin, and Xiao Yuan's face was full of interest, "Brother, I saw this red jade flute with you a long time ago, it's so beautiful!" ”
Yun Yi Qingjun's eyebrows and eyes were a little inexplicable, and he said lightly: "This is the birthday gift that my mother gave me when I was ten years old. ”
Hua Jiang's small body stiffened slightly, in the past two years, she had already known about the death of Yun Yi's parents from the mouth of the little fat man, and she regretted that her intestines were green when she first chased her brother and asked her aunt and uncle.
Noticing Hua Jiang peeking at her weak little appearance, Yun Yi couldn't help but be a little amused, and rubbed her little head, "The tune that my brother played just now was composed by your aunt, and the tune is full of the trend of ten thousand ways returning to the sect, and you have to remember the changes between the rhythms." ”
Hua Jiang hurriedly nodded his head in response, and couldn't help but lean in and asked cautiously, "Does this piece have a name?" ”
The young man carefully rubbed the body of the red jade, raised his chin slightly and stared at the full moon in the sky, was silent for a while, and said a little bitterly: "'Clear snow between the eyebrows of the inch, for the king to say goodbye to the horse. This is the song that my mother composed before my father and I set out on the expedition, and she told me that as a general, the life and death of the people should be pressed in the heart, engraved in the eyebrows and not forgotten, and the king should ride horses to fight, and should not give up the mountains and mountains for ten years. He paused, and a mocking smile appeared, "The result?" ”
Hua Jiang looked sadly at the young man's painful appearance at this time, and her heart seemed to be torn open with a bloody wound, and she was so painful that she couldn't breathe.
Knowles has fought for King Chen on the battlefield for more than ten years, and I don't know how many soldiers' blood and tears have been used to fight Chen Guo from a chicken rib to a hegemonic power, when they fought bloody battles on the front line, their allegiance to the king was secretly insidious and vicious, step by step, causing their family to be ruined, and even not to die.
Tears welled up little by little, Hua Jiang secretly wiped it, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, did you stay in the Yun clan to assist the Jin Kingdom, do you want to take revenge?" ”
The full moon was enveloped by a few inky clouds, the light in front of her was not very clear, and she couldn't see the expression on Yun Yi's face, she only heard the young man say in a cold tone: "When I was betrayed by the deputy general at the foot of the Duanping Cliff and was slashed ten times by him and bled endlessly, I told myself that if I don't take revenge, I won't die." ”
Hua Jiang finally couldn't hold back any longer, hugged the boy tightly from the side, and buried his head in the crook of his arm and couldn't stop crying. Yun Yi reached out and wrapped her trembling shoulders and patted her gently comfortingly, with a little warmth on her face.
There is so much suffering in this world, Hua Jiang has nothing to ask for in this life, I just want to accompany you step by step, even if it can make you feel a little warm, I am very happy.
Since this night, Hua Jiang has become more and more diligent in practicing every day, following Yun Yi to practice the exercises morning and night, the little fat man and Jiayue are like a wind, they can't stand the vegetarian food in the dining room, and they are scurrying around the mountains every day to hunt pheasants, so that after that, it has been more than a month.
On this day, Yun Xiao made a rare appearance, gathered everyone in the Sanqing Palace, and saw that everyone had arrived, and looked at Yun Zi lazily, "How are they practicing the Pure Heart Mantra?" ”
Yun Zi said expressionlessly: "Acceptable." ”
Nodding, Yun Xiao sat up a little straighter, and said a little seriously: "Yeting City is located on the border between the Great Jin Dynasty and Western Chu, and there have been many cases of wild beasts seriously injuring villagers in recent days. Wait now to go back and clean up, and in the afternoon I will arrange a carriage at the foot of the mountain, and give you three months to drive out the Great Jin from the Beast Control Gate of Yeting City. Of course," he raised his eyebrows, and his tone changed, "what about the dead, in three months, the teacher will set up a tablet for you, you can rest assured." ”
The juniors couldn't help but feel a little chill down their backs, and after listening to him with trepidation, they hurriedly pushed forward and backward and scattered like birds and beasts.
Yun Xiuwen saw that everyone had run away, and then he said to Yun Xiao with a smile: "Why should the eldest brother scare them, this time the Beast Control Gate only sent some shrimp soldiers and crabs to test the water, and it will not kill them." ”
"Prevention is better than prevention," Yun Xiaohun waved his hand indifferently, as if unintentionally, "lest we almost be killed by our own people like we did back then." ”
Yun Xiuwen saw him looking at him with slightly sharp eyes, and his warm smile couldn't help but stiffen, and he tugged at the corners of his mouth slightly and said, "What the eldest brother said is reasonable." ”
The east-west span from Fuyang City to Yeting City was extremely large, and a group of people hurried for nearly a month to arrive at Huaijiang County, which was the most attacked by wild beasts in the city.
The leader of the juniors was an old butler with a crickety demeanor, who didn't say a word all the way, but looked back at them from time to time with a pair of cloudy eyes.
When they arrived in the city, the old housekeeper helped them find an inn to settle in, and then bowed down and trembled into a guest room, "Smack! He slammed the door shut to announce to them that his mission was done.
It was almost dawn at this time, and there were no other guests at the inn except them. After everyone ordered a few dishes, they all sat down in the lobby one after another, and gathered together in twos and threes to discuss uneasily.
Hua Jiang and Yun Yi were sitting at the table waiting for Jiayue and them to come back from ordering, and before a cup of tea was served, they saw that outside the three tables, Shi Shiran, a junior who was about fourteen or fifteen years old, stood up, arched his hand towards everyone present, and said loudly: "Fellow students, you are in the clouds." I sincerely think that since this experience is a matter of life, we might as well take advantage of tonight to elect a leader with both ability and integrity, so as to arrange our future actions, what do you think? ”
