6. Dare to ask where the road is

In the richly decorated tent, Zhuang Hua sat opposite the man who could be described as beautiful, and a silver wine jug and wine cup were placed on a low table between the two.

"What's your name?" The man was pleasant, as if he was not the ruthless person who had decided life and death in his backhand just now.

Zhuang Hua was silent, and his slightly constricted eyes kept his gaze on the edge of the low table.

"My name is Qi Jiang." The man said again.

Zhuang Hua was still silent.

The peach blossom eyes of the brown pupils flashed with displeasure, and Qi Jiang raised his eyebrows that flew into his sideburns, "Young man, tell Lone your name." ”

Zhuang Hua was just silent, and he kept turning the handpiece in his hand for a moment.

The picture of Xing Le lying in a pool of blood lingered in his mind, and Xing Le died like that?

That's it, dead.

It was the first time in her life that she had seen people die in front of her, and one of them was someone she knew, a person who had been in the same car with her one moment, and the next moment he was dead in the wilderness. She didn't feel much, her mind was empty, as if her soul had left her body, she could hear and see, but she didn't know how to react, only silence.

"You're an outcast." Qi Jiang word by word, the words penetrated her eardrum like a needle chisel and fell to the bottom of her heart, pulling Zhuang Hua's mind back into her body.

"I know." Zhuang Hua finally said the second sentence to General Qi.

She knew that she was an abandoned son thrown out by Xing Le, maybe at this time, Shan Ting had already left Yangguo under the escort of another team of warriors, evaded the pursuers and was heading towards Zhaoguo at full speed.

People are swordsmen, I am fish and meat, what can I do?

Qi Jiang was a little surprised, as if he had found a fun piece of food, and said to Zhuang Hua: "Do you want to see what happens to the person who treats you as an outcast?"

No, he's dead. Zhuang Hua was silent again, falling into his own deep thought.

Qi Jiang felt that he had been insulted, you must know that those who dared to ignore him so much have become fertilizer in the field, and at the same time provoke him to play the fun, this hairless "teenager" is not like those who want to pretend to be high in the past, nor is it a helpless choice under hatred and despair, but to ignore him like a passerby, regardless of position, regardless of identity.

In normal times, Zhuang Hua would definitely not ignore such an outstanding person as Qi Jiang, but now Zhuang Hua has been stimulated too much in a short period of time, and all the reactions are stuck, she needs time to react, digest this information, and then classify and sort it out, and finally make a decision to deal with it.

She doesn't know if all programmers have this kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder-like way of doing things, but she has to do everything step by step, maybe it's slow, but it's not wrong. Mistakes mean trouble, and she hates them.

It's a not-so-beautiful misunderstanding.

Qi Jiang was very interested in the increasingly unique "young man" in front of him, and he suddenly wanted to see how vivid this indifferent face should be with an expression.

Swish!

Zhuang Hua only saw a cold light flicker, and then her left hand was pulled to the table and was held down, and a sharp dagger out of the sheath was fixed between her ring finger and little finger pressed on the table. On his wrist, he held a white and slender hand.

Qi Jiang had a slightly charming smile on his face, and his brown pupils were also dyed with a smile, laughing or joking Zhuang Hua couldn't understand, "Tell Gu, your name." Qi Jiang asked this question again, "Otherwise, I will cut off your finger." The gentle and cold voice was as free as a greeting and greeting, and he spit out cruel threatening words.

Zhuang Hua's brain and expression became more serious, she had to say something, what to say? Say what? He asks his name, then tell him!

Zhuang Hua was about to answer, when she heard a "cluck", and a cool feeling passed into her brain from the little finger of her left hand flashed away.

The mischievous smile in Qi Jiang's eyes, the fingers leaving his palms on the low table, the blood-stained dagger, and the severed finger wounds on his hands that were pouring blood outward, were frozen in Zhuang Hua's frozen mind.

Didn't feel pain, just ridiculousness.

The expanding pupils shrank in an instant, and Zhuang Huamo looked at Qi Jiang in front of him who was waiting for the adult's reprimand like a naughty child, and slowly spit out a sentence: "You are spoiled." ”

Zhuang Hua was tied to a temporary wooden frame in the wilderness, and it had been about three or four hours since his fingers had been cut off.

Climbing up to the horizon, the early sun radiated a soft light, shining warmly on Zhuang Hua's excessively pale face.

Ten fingers connected to the heart, the pain of broken fingers continued to torment Zhuang Hua's overloaded nerves, she could only relieve it by taking deep breaths, but in fact, it was useless, cold sweat still kept coming out of her head and face.

General Qi rode on the horse, drove the horse close to Zhuang Hua's side, untied the water bladder hanging on the side of the saddle, pulled out the stopper, leaned over and handed it to Zhuang Hua's mouth, "Drink." ”

Zhuang Hua slowly opened his closed eyes, his dark eyes were a little dim, and his slightly dilated gaze gradually focused on the water bladder in Qi Jiang's hand.

Qi Jiang put the water bladder to Zhuang Hua's lips and poured it slowly, most of the water flowed down the corners of his mouth and chin onto his clothes, and only a small part went into Zhuang Hua's mouth.

"They have hurt you so badly, Lone will definitely avenge you, you can watch." General Qi pulled his sleeves to wipe Zhuang Hua's mouth and the sweat on his forehead, and comforted.

Zhuang Hua weakly scolded "perverted" in her heart, and then the pain of her severed finger grabbed all her attention. The severed finger was medicated and bandaged, and the cloth on the wound was soaked and smeared with blood.

The pain of broken fingers made Zhuang Hua lose the energy to worry about other things, and he was much more conscious. The so-called, Seon lost his horse and knew that it was not a blessing.

I don't know if the medicine in this world is reliable, whether the wound will be infected and inflamed, and she doesn't want to lose a hand or even an arm after losing a finger.

Instead of worrying about what has been lost and cannot be recovered, it is better to worry about what may happen.

Zhuang Hua is a decisive person, complaining, regretting, and angering are not things she will do, crying or something, it is something that will happen to her before the age of seven, and now there is nothing to make her cry except for cutting onions.

Years of living alone made her firmly believe that it is better to seek others than to seek herself, the mountains will fall, and everyone will run, and only her own firmness is relied on. Her natural or acquired character also does not allow herself to be weak.

"If you were in ancient times, you would be a lone ranger, or the kind of family that died and the sky was a lonely star." That's how Tang Qi described her character.

Zhuang Hua thought of Tang Qi again. Speaking of which, among all the friends, only Tang Qi can see through her essence and heart, and if Tang Qi can be a gentleman, she will propose to him. It's a pity that the demon man is not her style, and the two can only stop at being friends and best friends.

Zhuang Hua's thoughts flew farther and farther away, and Ju Wan trembled under the gaze of General Qi, kneeling on the ground and not daring to raise his head.

"Maybe you're really the lone nemesis." Qi will ride his horse around Juwan, "Since I met you, Lone has become as stupid as you." ”

"Actually, you're a frustrated person." Qi Jiang said thoughtfully.

Ju Wan's face was like earth, and the cold sweat fell faster than Zhuang Hua, who was tied to the wooden frame, and hurriedly rushed to Qi Jiang's horse, "Your Highness is clear!" Your Highness is discerning! A certain person who is by no means frustrated, will never deceive His Highness! ”

"Really?" Qi Jiang looked like he had suddenly realized, stopped his horse, stretched out his hand to pick up Ju Wan's chin with a white horsewhip, and said, "It seems that Fu Liang has long known that you are stupid like a pig, and deliberately made you come to Lone's side and make trouble."

Ju Wan didn't dare to refute, so he could only kneel in place, his eyes flashing with remorse and resentment.

"Heh......" General Qi suddenly chuckled, looked at the people and horses running far ahead, and said to Ju Wan: "Your life-saving benefactor is here." ”

The man and the horse came to the front, and the people and horses brought by the Qi general surrounded him, and the person had no fear on his face, and he confronted the Qi general across the human wall, and his bearing was not inferior to that of the Qi general.

"I'm frustrated." The person who came said loudly.

Zhuang Hua heard the familiar warm voice, and reluctantly raised his head to follow the voice.

She saw Shanting riding on a horse, her handsome and gentle face with a cold color, but a pair of starry eyes full of worry crossed the barrier and fell on her, seeing her look over, the reins under her hand tightened, and the horse sat down and neighed uneasily.

She suddenly wanted to laugh and cry, and when she saw this only person who gave her warmth and care in a strange world, the grievances in her heart couldn't help but surge into her heart.

Probably it's my brother's feelings, Zhuang Hua thought.

Zhuang Hua nodded at Shan Ting, signaling that she was fine, but the too pale face and the left hand without the little finger and the blood-stained white cloth made Shan Ting's brows furrow even tighter, and the coldness emanating from his body became more and more intense.

Qi Jiang looked at the mountain court with interest, and then looked at Zhuang Hua who was recovering behind him, he was unhappy, and the reins in his hand made the horse move a step just to block the mountain court and Zhuang Hua.

"I have heard the posture of a good gentleman in Yasukuni for a long time, and I saw it today...... But that's it. Qi Jiang looked at the mountain court and said, as if selecting goods in the market.

Shan Ting stretched his eyebrows, and said without humility or arrogance: "Rumors are all wrong, fools are also clouds, and wise men can distinguish between right and wrong, and know the truth and falsehood." ”

"In this way, Lonely, it should be a matter of removing the false and retaining the true, so that the world will not be ignorant and ignorant of right and wrong." Qi Jiang raised his thin lips into a beautiful arc, but his eyes suddenly condensed, his right hand touched the dagger on his waist, the blade was unsheathed, and the cold light was still in the air, and the dagger was already nailed to the wooden frame on the side of Zhuang Hua's neck.

After a while, a thin line of blood appeared on the side of Zhuang Hua's neck, and a drop of blood rolled down, invading the collar of Zhuang Huayue's white shirt, which was extra eye-catching.

Zhuang Hua was so shocked that his fists clenched, and he was involved in the wound of his severed finger, and he gasped in pain.

Qi Jiang sighed regretfully, "It's a pity, it's a little off." He turned to look at the pale mountain court, and seemed to ask, "How about throwing it again?" ”

"Enough! So-and-so has already come, and he won't let him go! Shan Ting shouted angrily.

Qi Jiang asked, "When did Lone invite you here?" ”

Shan Ting said coldly: "It is equivalent to spreading rumors among the Shaolu warriors, saying that Shaolu City caught another country outside the city to make a small person, this person is a hairless young man, and he will behead this fine at noon today at the Pheasant Tail Hill thirty miles north of the north gate outside the north gate of Shaolu County, isn't it to lure someone to come." Now that I've come here, Prince Qi Jiang, don't you plan to release people? ”

Qi Jiang was not surprised to see that his identity was revealed, he did not deliberately hide his identity and hide his whereabouts, and it was natural for him to be known.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Even so, Gu will let him go before you admit that you come." ”

Shanting was not angry because of Qi Jiang's rogue words, "The name of Prince Qi Jiang's capriciousness has spread throughout the six countries as early as when he was the king and grandson, and now he has seen it with his own eyes, and he knows that what he said is true." ”

"Hmph." General Qi snorted coldly disdainfully, and walked in front of the mountain court, "Don't work hard and be frustrated, the doctor will evaluate Lonely." Then he ordered the mountain court to be tied up, and the whole team returned to the city.

"Whoosh-"

A sharp arrow wrapped in the sound of breaking the wind pierced through a soldier who was about to drag the mountain court to dismount.

Immediately afterward, one or two, countless arrows were shot at them, and many of the soldiers were nailed to the ground and lost their lives before they could wave their blades to resist.

Qi Jiang quickly drew his sword and backhanded and cut off a few arrows that shot straight at him, and then went to find the trace of Shanting, who had already crossed him on horseback and ran towards Zhuang Hua.

Want to save someone? Think beautifully!

Qi will turn the horse's head and chase towards the mountain court.

In fact, the distance from Qi Jiang to Zhuang Hua is only a dozen meters, and it is only a distance of five or six steps for the horse to run, but the many obstacles have made it difficult for the mountain court to save Zhuang Hua, and it has become difficult for Qi Jiang to chase the mountain court.

Finally, Shan Ting broke through the encirclement and came to Zhuang Hua's side, pulled out the dagger nailed to the stake on the side of Zhuang Hua's neck, and was just about to cut the rope that bound Zhuang Hua, Qi Jiang had already caught up, and with a sword, he picked up the dagger in Shan Ting's hand, and with a backhand, he slashed at Shan Ting's head.

"Bell!!"

A long sword stopped General Qi's sword in the air, saving Shan Ting between life and death.

A bearded warrior held a sword to fight against General Qi, one on the ground on the other, but it was a stalemate, and dozens of warriors rushed over one after another, and the men and horses of General Qi were in a melee.

"So-and-so is your opponent!" The bearded warrior roared, raised his sword and swung away the sword that was pressing on his sword, and stabbed straight towards Qi Jiang.

Qi Jiang was taken aback, he didn't expect this inconspicuous martial artist to have such great strength, so he immediately threw off his joking mentality and went all out to meet the enemy.

After the shock under the sword of the mountain court, seeing that Qi was about to be entangled, he hurriedly dismounted, rushed to Zhuang Hua's side in two steps, picked up a sword dropped by others from the ground, and cut the rope that bound Zhuang Hua in a few strokes.

Without the restraint of the rope, Zhuang Hua's legs were weak and he almost fell, Shan Ting hurriedly supported her, and asked eagerly, "Can you still go?" ”

Zhuang Hua moved his legs and feet a little and said, "Yes!" ”

"So-and-so helped you get on the horse." Shanting led the horse, Zhuang Hua was about to go up, but Qi Jiang, a warrior who got rid of his beard, rushed over, and stabbed a sword at Shanting who was helping Zhuang Hua on the horse, "Did Lone let you go?!" ”

Shan Ting hurriedly dragged Zhuang Hua back two steps and dodged General Qi's sword.

The bearded warrior who had his chest torn and his chest was also scratched, blocked in front of Shan Ting and Zhuang Hua, turned his back to the two and said, "Hurry up!" ”

Zhuang Hua heard the familiar voice, and before he could remember where he had heard it, he was pulled by the mountain court and ran in the opposite direction.

Zhuang Hua glanced back.

The bearded warrior reluctantly resisted the sharp offensive of General Qi, but he did not take half a step back, and the warriors who went forward and followed joined the battle group to drag the chasing soldiers.

Someone fell down and never got up again, someone triumphed but immediately got involved in another wave of struggle.

"Zhuang Hua! Can you hear so-and-so's explanation? Shanting's suddenly raised voice called Zhuang Hua back to his senses, and at a glance, the two of them didn't know how far they had run, and they couldn't see the pursuers.

While running, Zhuang Hua said, "Please say it again." ”

She did hear Shanting talking to her just now, but she didn't hear what Shanting was talking about.

Shanting pulled Zhuang Hua down the dirt slope, and saw a horse tied to a tree under the slope. Shan Ting's face was overjoyed, and he dragged Zhuang Hua to run two steps over, untied the reins tied to the tree, and then helped Zhuang Hua to get on the horse, and he also turned over and sat behind Zhuang Hua.

Before setting off on the horse, Shan Ting handed a jade plaque to Zhuang Hua and asked her to put it away, "A certain party just said that if you are separated in Zhaoguo in the future, any government office in the land of Zhangliang can solve your predicament with this jade plaque." ”

"I remember." Zhuang Hua put away the jade card and nodded.

Shanting pulled the reins and adjusted the horse's head, and shouted, "Ride!" The horse galloped up with the two men.

Zhuang Hua, who had no strength for a long time, straddled the horse and supported it with willpower to prevent himself from being thrown off the horse. Fortunately, behind her, Shan Ting's arms holding the reins protected her in the middle, so that she would not have too much trouble to sit firmly.

After running for a while, there was the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and Shan Ting looked back and saw that it was the bearded warrior who had saved him twice.

The bearded warrior whipped the horse under the crotch, and the horse accelerated and ran in pain
