Chapter 8: Enemy Attack I
The golden black hangs in the west, and the jade rabbit rises in the east.
In the mountains, the night was as cold as water, and Shao Si Ming knelt on the dry straw mat with his eyes looking at the few sparse stars in the sky, at this time they were not as dazzling as in the past, like delicate gems, hanging alone on a huge curtain.
The dazzling silver moon in the center of the canopy obscured their flickering light, but Shao Siming didn't like the moon because it was too arrogant and unattainable.
She likes to watch the bright Milky Way above the sky across the entire sky on moonless nights, and countless stars gather together, like many brothers and sisters together, which may also be a way for her to relieve loneliness.
The cold night wind swept across her shoulders, and she suddenly felt a little cold, and her internal strength was almost invulnerable to cold and heat like Shao Si's life, but now with her seriously injured body, her strength could be left.
As soon as he wanted to get up, he felt that his shoulders sank slightly, and a purple fox fur slowly fell on his shoulder.
“…… Thank you. ”
There was a slight silence for a moment, and when Yan Hong also sat down around the fire, Shao Si Ming said these two words a little jerky.
Yan Hong put his hands beside the fire and rubbed them, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Silly girl, what's the ...... here?"
After that, the two of them didn't say much, just sat quietly, quietly looking at the stars in the sky, quietly thinking about their hearts, and occasionally when they made eye contact, both of them subconsciously staggered quickly, as if they were deliberately avoiding something.
I don't know how long it took for a disciple of the Yin and Yang Family to deliver the roasted meat to the two of them, and surrounded by this wisp of aroma, this strange silence was relieved.
"If you are tired, you will rest early, there is still a long way to go, and the next is not as long and horizontal as the Central Plains, the mountain road is rugged and the plank road is difficult to walk, and you have injuries in the body, if you don't recuperate well, it will inevitably leave the root of the disease."
Listening to Yan Hong's slow and gentle tone, Shao Si Ming's mood gradually converged, and he just looked directly into Yan Hong's eyes, like a clear spring. It looks so pure and beautiful.
However, at this moment, what the girl saw in her eyes was as if she was in the middle of the endless sea, and the man opposite, you seemed to never really know him, and the closer you got to him, the more mysterious and profound he became.
There seemed to be calm and all-encompassing in those eyes, and everything in the world would be seen through the void in his eyes, and only the precious essence remained in his heart.
"What's the matter, do I have flowers on my face?"
Yan Hong was a little strange, why Shao Siming's eyes became a little confused from the beginning of curiosity, to the end, what was she thinking, the girl's mind he guessed with flawlessness, and could only use these half-joking words to ease the atmosphere.
"Uh...... No......"
Like a kitten with its tail stepped on, Yan Hong clearly saw that Shao Siming's hands were tightly folded on his belt, obviously a little uneasy.
He could only smile helplessly, but Yan Hong's casual expression seemed to Shao Siming as if he had already known his thoughts, and his white cheeks unconsciously rose a little red, and the veil was even more hazy and beautiful.
"I ...... Let's go. Just throwing down the three lonely words, Shao Si Ming quickly got up and walked towards his tent, leaving only Yan Hong's doubts in the same place with nowhere to answer.
……………………
In the middle of the night, several bonfires swayed in the cold wind. As if it would be extinguished at any time, the surroundings seemed quiet, only a few figures swayed in the night, it was the night patrol disciple of the Yin and Yang family.
"Hey...... I said brother, the weather in the mountains is really weird, it's stuffy like a steamer during the day, damn it...... It's cold at night and it's like an ice hole. Tell me, isn't this a living sin? A bearded guard said to another young man.
"Who's to say it's not...... Hey, I said Lao Ma, you better say a few words, if the adults listen to it, you will inevitably be scolded. The young man who was by the fire looked around and replied unhurriedly.
"Zhao Shan, when did you become so shrunk, everyone is a brother in the nest, don't let people say this; Those adults have stiff faces like ice cubes all day long, and they can scare ghosts to death, where do we bastards have so many scruples about eating. ”
The old horse chewed the withered grass in his mouth as he spoke, complaining that he didn't have a match, and it was also a shame that they were far away from Yan Hong's big tent, otherwise they would really have a board.
"I said Lao Ma, it's not me Zhao someone who said you, but for so many years a brother who has slept in a shed, I still have to pick it up with you, you said that your kung fu is not bad, your age is also up, and your qualifications are there, but why are you still a soldier like my little brother, and I am not a leader......" Speaking of this, Zhao Shan stopped, and just looked at Lao Ma.
"Hey...... That's right, you said that my old horse has been in the Yin and Yang family for many years, and I have no merit and hard work, but why can't I be a leader...... Xiao Zhao, tell me about it. ”
"Hey...... My big brother Ma, isn't it because of ......"
"Because what, it's all big men grinding fart!"
"Isn't it because of your mouth...... It's okay to scold all day long, can those adults up there look at you? ”
Lao Ma thought about it too, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that he was arguing in his heart, "Hey...... Then according to what you say, we should be like those adults, with an ice cube face all day long, and three sticks can't beat a stuffy fart! I can't stand this. ”
"Shhhh Be quiet, if what you just said is heard, then I will have to be whipped with you, criticizing the peak is a felony, you fool and even forget the door rules?! Zhao Shan hurriedly stopped Lao Ma's words, he didn't want to be whipped for nothing.
"Hey, let's talk quickly, it's okay for your brother and me to have this character, so I have to rely on you to remind me more in the future, and I don't know what's going on when I lose my head one day." The old horse untied the gourd on his waist and took a sip of wine, and said in a sullen voice.
"Old horse, you can see the outside world when you say this, come and come...... Give me your good wine to my brother. Smelling the faint fragrance of wine, and in this cold night, Zhao Shan's heart was like a cat's paw.
"Okay...... Then. As he spoke, he threw his right hand, and the wine gourd fell into Zhao Shan's hand.
Just between this lightning and flint, the old horse suddenly felt that his hairs were rising, and his intuition after many years of mixing in the rivers and lakes told him that this was not a good sign, "Zhao Shan!" When! ”
Before the word "heart" could be spoken, a sharp sword pierced his brother's chest, and the cold light only made him feel that his whole body was frozen!
"Enemy attack!"
