Chapter 658: Love and Hate Meeting, Resentment and Parting (II)
"Anti-thieves have anti-thieves, and the rivers and lakes also have the rules of the rivers and lakes."
Facing the wind and snow, turning the mountain road, a woman named Watermelon spoke softly. Her hair moved in the wind and snow, and although her appearance was childish, her words at this time were not rash.
"Since you have a foothold in this world, your father is not the same as the sky. It's not that whoever wants to put it down can put it down. After I return to Miaojiang, the three brothers of the Qi family, you have to watch it. ”
"I heard about tonight, and I'm glad there wasn't a fight." Ning Yi nodded at the back, but sighed slightly, "What's the matter with three knives and six holes?" ”
"The fifth brother of the Qi family is talented, and he may have great achievements in the future, so it is wise to beat me and not do it now."
The Qi family originally had five brothers, but after the disaster of annihilation, there were only the second, third, and fifth brothers left, and the fifth was Qi Xinhan. Watermelon paused.
"As for the three knives and six holes, the three knives and six holes will not die. Killing Uncle Qi, I am ashamed of myself, if I can really solve it, I will also earn it. ”
"Three knives and six holes...... It's not pretty. ”
"Poof......
Watermelon laughed and glanced at Ning Yi, the two were already walking side by side at this time. Passing through the small forest in front of you, when you reach the corner of the mountainside, it is already a small flat land, and you can usually see the construction scene in the distance here, but at this time, the snowflakes are long, but you can't see it, and the pace of the two slowed down. Watermelon casually found the fallen wood and sat down.
"After I return to Miaojiang, you can take Sister Lu with you, or Chen Fan and Zhu Biao, with them, even if Monk Lin comes. It won't hurt you. You have offended many people, and now you are rebelling, and you cannot afford to make mistakes. You have always been bad at martial arts, and you can't become a first-class master, don't be too troublesome about these things. ”
"You always say that I can't be a first-class master, I think I already are." Ning Yi sat down next to her, "When Hong Ti said this, I thought about it later. It's that her definition of a master is too high. And so you say...... Don't forget, I was on the Jinluan Palace, but I overturned Tong Guan with a slap. ”
"You are using power to suppress people, and it has little to do with martial arts." Watermelon smiled, "Being in the top position, fighting with life, angry and angry, rightly strong." These are all potentials, and you can overwhelm those powerful ministers in the Jinluan Palace, which is very powerful, and it is also because you are open. Leave no stone unturned. You can't try every time. Your momentum is not for fighting. Just let those who can work hard fight it. ”
The entanglement between her and Ning Yi has not been a day or two, and in the past few months, they have been talking and bickering together, but at this moment, when the snow is falling and the world is lonely, the two of them are sitting on this wood together, and she seems to feel a little embarrassed. Jumped out and walked forward. He threw a punch in his hand.
"After I leave, Zhuo Xiaofeng and they will leave you behind."
She threw a punch. Running two steps, whirring and two punches.
"Originally, it was the disciples you taught, and you teach them for a few more years to see what you achieve. When they were in Miaojiang, they had already been exposed to a lot of things, and they should be able to help you. ”
The figure of the watermelon is not tall, coupled with a childish face, it even looks petite, and when he says two words, his voice is not high, and after speaking, he stopped again, glanced at Ning Yi, and saw that Ning Yi did not move with a smile, so he turned his head again and slowly pushed out the fist.
"A few years ago, when you were in Hangzhou, you learned a few hands of the sword, and Sister Lu taught you to break the six paths, which is indeed a good way to exert power, but the breaking of the six paths is fierce and hurts the body. If I want to help you recuperate, Sister Lu has her own methods, but my body shape was originally not suitable for using a sword, but although I found a way, my father also taught me a set of boxing techniques. This punch method is only for qi cultivation, and it was specially changed for me, and no one else will either. It was only in the past few years that I could understand and teach others. I practice every day, you can take a look. ”
"At the beginning in Hangzhou, the democracy you talked about, Lan Huandong also had some clues. You also killed the emperor, and if you want to gain a foothold in the northwest, then be in the northwest, but in the current situation, if you can't stand, you can also go south. I...... I also hope you can go to Lan Huandong to have a look, there are some things that I can't think of, you have to help me. ”
As she spoke, in the wind and snow, the body punched from slow to fast, hitting, swinging, smashing, hitting, kneeling, elbowing, jumping, and gradually dancing like a wheel, like a thousand-armed little Ming King. This boxing method named Xiao King Kong Lianquan Ning Yi has already seen it, she fought with the three brothers of the Qi family, and she still rushed forward with one enemy and three, at this time, the drill saw that the fist wind did not see the strength, but the figure that fell into the eyes looked a little cute, just like the continuous dance of this lovely girl, only the snowflakes that fell in the air rose, floated, scattered, conflicted, and there was a whistling sound.
The range of each punch was short, but her body tended to advance, and her qi veins were long, so that her voice seemed light and calm from beginning to end, and her punches became faster and faster, but her words did not change at all.
However, in the past six months, she has always habitually found fault with Ning Yi and quarreled with her, and at this time, she thought that she was about to leave, and her words calmed down for the first time. The anxiety in my heart was revealed with the faster and faster punches.
“…… You're twenty-three years old, aren't you? ”
“…… From the time of the Rise of the Holy Father, in this ...... Uh......"
The watermelon spoke in his mouth, and the little King Kong in his hand was still punching faster and faster, and when he heard Ning Yi's abrupt question, the movements and words in his hand suddenly stopped. At this time, she bent her fist slightly, stretched forward diagonally with a fist, her expression stiffened, her small fist was still dangling in the air, and then she stood up straight: "What's the matter with you?" ”
"How many years have we been married?" Ning Yi stepped down from the wood.
"Our ...... Is it considered a marriage? ”
"It's been a few years, it should be counted."
She posed and continued to box. Hearing this, he stopped again, lowered his fists, and stood there.
"In the past few years, it's not that no one has married, but Lan Huandong's affairs have never been relieved. You...... Your wives and children are about to grow up, and they are ...... with me ...... with me."
Without her fist, Fengxue returned to its original falling scene, and her words stiffened slightly, and her body was also stiff, just standing straight like that, with her fists clenched at her sides. Slightly tilted head.
As Ning Yi said, she is twenty-three years old, in this era. It's not an old girl, it can only be said that no one wants it. And even at such an age, in the past years, except for the one time after being betrayed by him, the twenty-three-year-old has never even had a stiff hug in the snowstorm......
The snowflakes fell, and she stood there. looked at Ning Yi walking over. She's leaving, and something is going to happen in such a snowstorm.
At least...... There should also be a stiff hug......
Courtyard room halfway up the mountain. The oil lamp was still slightly on, and in the light, Su Tan'er looked at the accounts in her hand. When they turned around, Xiaochan and Ning Xi were already asleep on the bed not far away.
She looked over the lattice again. Although you can't see the outside through the thick window paper. But you can still hear the wind and snow getting louder.
On a night like this, he shouldn't come back to rest.
Thinking so, she tilted her head and smiled slightly. I don't know when, the figure in the room blew out the light and went to bed to rest.
The wind and snow have surrounded the world again.
**************
After a cold winter night, in the early morning, the snow drifted peacefully in the sky, and the whole world gradually became covered in silver. Replace the desolate colors of late autumn.
When he woke up in the morning, his head was a little drowsy. Duan Su'e came over to take care of her, cooked porridge and rice for her, and then boiled a few herbs to ward off the cold for her.
Duan Su'e was originally the personal guard of the master of Lu Zhai, and after coming to Xiaocanghe, she was arranged by the side of the teacher. On one side is a mountain village woman who practices martial arts and kills, and on the other side is a weak and melancholy Oiran in the capital, but there is no suspicion between the two. This is because the teacher herself has good knowledge, and she didn't want to have too much contact with the outside world after she came over, so she only helped Yunzhu sort out various ancient books and documents from the capital.
Duan Su'e has a family in the mountains, her husband died for Aoki Village, but her son has reached the age of reading and literacy, and the environment of Aoki Village is good recently, so that the children in the family can have a chance to read and write, and they will be sensible and sensible in the future, which is the greatest hope of women in the mountains. I usually talk to my teacher about what happened in the valley, and in my spare time, I will come over to ask about my reading experience.
The genuine Oiran of this year is the convincing big star of later generations, and compared with the big star, they have more connotation, insight, and knowledge. Duan Su'e admired her, and in her heart, she actually admired this woman who could optimistically raise a child after her husband's death.
"I heard that the watermelon girl from the south last night was going to compete with the three masters of the Qi family, and everyone ran to see it, and I thought it would be a big fight......
"Watermelon girl, she is young, a grandmaster-like figure, and I don't know how she practiced, just looking at her sword kung fu, compared with the owner of the village, I'm afraid it's not much worse. The three members of the Qi family have a grudge against her, and it seems that they can't be avenged for the time being, but their father's enmity is not shared, and everyone will take this matter to heart......"
"Everyone is talking about Jingshi right now, the city is broken, I'm afraid the people inside are not happy, Miss Li, you don't have any relatives over there."
Duan Su'e's occasional speech would wake up in his stiff thoughts. She naturally has no relatives in Beijing, but ...... Mother Li, those sisters in the building...... What happened to them now, such a question was something she didn't dare to touch even if she thought about it.
When the Jurchens besieged the city for the first time, she was already helping under the city and saw all kinds of tragedies. The reason for this tragic situation is to avoid an even more unbearable situation. But from here...... In the hearts of ordinary people, I am afraid it is difficult to think carefully. Those hysterical hedges, the cries after the severed fingers, the wails after bearing all kinds of injuries...... What could be worse than that? Her mind is inevitably stuck here.
In the Alum Tower for so many years, Li's mother has always had a way, and she may be able to get away with it......
However, after the destruction of Bianliang City, thousands of miles away, the women of Alum Tower were indeed desperately seeking refuge, but the girls that Master Li once knew, they were mostly among the first batch of prostitutes to be sent to the Jurchen military camp. Mother Li Yun, a woman who has taken great care of her since she entered the alum building, and is also extremely wise, has committed suicide by taking medicine with several women in the alum tower four days ago. After the other women were sent to the Jurchen military camp, dozens of the most fierce people were thrown out after committing suicide because they could not bear the humiliation.
She won't know these things until many years later.
The snow does not stop falling in the valley, but there is something in the valley atmosphere. Even if the teacher doesn't go out much, he can feel the change at this time. In the falling snow, she could occasionally hear shouts from across the valley. Soldiers carrying logs on their shoulders rushed through the mountain roads in such heavy snow, and there were also groups of people shouting in unison between the warehouse and the construction site to shovel out the snow tracks, and the spirit contained in the words and shouts of people was compared with a few days ago. There is a noticeable difference.
This is the change brought about after the destruction of Bianliang City.
After two or three days of snowfall, there were signs of stopping. During this period, Su Tan'er, Nie Yunzhu and others all came to visit her. And the news brought by Duan Su'e. It was mostly about the Western Xia troops, and the valley was discussing whether to help or not, and then, another piece of news suddenly came.
A few days ago. The old breed who has guarded the northwest for many years is a master of the road. Yu Qingjian City's old mansion passed away.
When the teacher heard the news, he also sat in a daze for a long time. In the first battle of Bianliang defense, the general in the town guarding the city was Li Gang, the left prime minister, and the world-famous old minister, although the teacher and his identity were one heaven and one underground, but Bianliang was able to hold it, and the old man played a role in the pillar to a large extent, to this old man. In the heart of the teacher, there is no end to respect.
The snow had stopped that day. When the teacher went out of the room, there was a white patch between heaven and earth. Not far away, there was a walk in a courtyard, and on the roof of the courtyard, a woman sat cross-legged there, one hand slightly supporting her chin. The woman was wearing a white mink dress, white snow boots, and a delicate and even a little immature countenance, which reminded people of the women of large families in the southern water towns, but the teacher knew that the woman in front of her who was sitting on the roof like a childish girl, who had no murder in her hands, was the leader of the anti-thieves in the south, the tyrant Liu Watermelon.
She usually loves to quarrel with Ning Yi, but between the two, the teacher can see that there are some unclear private feelings. Over the years, that childhood friend who can be literate and martial arts has walked the world, how many strange friends she has made and how many things she has experienced, she actually doesn't know at all.
According to Duan Su'e, this girl is also going south in the next two days. Perhaps because of the imminent separation, her expression on the roof was also a little dazed and reluctant.
She was able to sit on the roof, indicating that Ning Yi was lecturing to a group of middle-level officers in the room below. For what he said, the master was a little afraid to listen, she bypassed this courtyard, walked along the mountain road, far away can see the bustle of the settlement in the valley, thousands of people are distributed, the snow that has fallen in the past few days has already been pushed around, on the side of the foothills, dozens of people shouted in unison, pushing the huge rocks down the slope, on the side of the riverbed, the soldiers who are preparing to build a water storage dam dig up the flow of water, and the sound of clanging in the iron shop can be heard clearly here.
There are already children of all ages running around to help.
She walked through the woods on one side, and the number of people began to increase, and it seemed that some women were looking at the excitement here, and the teacher knew that there was a large flat ground on the mountainside on this side, and then she saw from a distance the soldiers who had been assembled, a total of two squares, about a thousand people, and someone was talking loudly in front of them.
“…… We have artillery ...... Once assembled, the strongest Pingshan Iron Harrier in Western Xia is actually not to be feared...... The most worrying thing is the Xixia Bu ...... We...... There are many mountains around, and in the future, the war will be the fastest, and how to meet the attack, all departments need to ...... This time it is not only to save people, but also to train soldiers......"
The sound of the lecture came from afar, but not far away, Duan Su'e saw her and greeted her.
"Miss Li, you came out and walked around......"
"Sister Su'e, this is ......"
"We're going to send troops."
"Huh?"
"The Western Xia army has arrived close to Qingjian City, and we have sent two teams, each with 500 people, to attack the siege army left and right......"
"Tangut people...... A lot, right? ”
"There are nearly 100,000 soldiers in Western Xia, even if the whole army is dispatched, I am afraid that there is no chance of victory, not to mention that the old minister has passed away, and there is no one on our side who can talk to the Western army. These thousand people were only restrained when the Western Xia attacked the city, and the most important thing was that if the city was broken, they could block the Western Xia Bubazi in the mountains and forests, so that the refugees could escape quickly...... That's all we can do. ”
After getting along for several months, Duan Su'e also knew that the teacher was kind-hearted, and whispered some of the information she knew. In fact, the cold winter has arrived, and all kinds of winter construction of Xiaocang River have not been perfected, and even in this winter, we have to do a good job of some dam drainage work, so as to wait for the spring flood in the next year, the manpower is already insufficient, and it is not easy to send out this thousand elites.
While the two of them were talking, they walked towards the top of the hillside, and the valley, school field, and queue below gradually came into view, and then the teacher heard the shouts of thousands of people in unison, and the team was established, although there were only a thousand people, but the morale was also high and murderous!
There is snow in the distance, valleys and mountain gaps are far apart, and the endless sea of winter snow stretches out, and the queue of thousands of people climbs out between the foothills, like a long dragon.
Shi Shi opened his mouth slightly, and exhaled white gas.
Since half a year ago, Wu Rui has rebelled, broken through Bianliang City, Ning Yi killed the monarch in court, and now the Jurchens are going south, breaking through Bianliang, the Central Plains is turbulent, the Xixia people come south, and the old breed is dead, and in this northwest place, the morale of Wu Rui's camp can be so cold even in the chaos, such morale, she has never seen it in Bianliang City for so many days......
This world, the Wu Dynasty, is it really going to end?
Her body swayed, slightly dizzy in the reflection of the snow.
I...... Where to go?
***************
Whether it's love or fear, people's emotions are thousands of things, and they can't stop what should happen, and this winter, history is still running over like a giant ship.
In December, the Xixia people broke through Qingjian and Yanzhou cities, and in the cold winter, the people in the northwest left their hometowns and scattered the displaced people, and the nephew of the planter Dao led the rest of the Western Army to be dragged by the Jurchens on the north bank of the Yellow River and could not get out. When Qingjian City was broken, the ancestral hall and ancestral tomb of the family were all destroyed. The town guarded the northwest of the Wu Dynasty for more than 100 years, and the Western Army, which lasted for five generations of generals, burned out the afterglow here.
During the siege of the city, the Jurchens demanded gold and silver property in several quantities, and the Kaifeng Mansion looted several times in the city, and the gold and silver from the rich and poor households in Bianliang City were copied out and presented to the Jurchens, including the Bianliang Palace, almost all of which had been carried away.
This is only the tip of the iceberg of the Bianliang tragedy, which lasted for several months, and tens of thousands of women in Bianliang City were sent and captured into the Jin army. There are only thousands of women and women in the palace queen mother, queen and concubines below the queen, palace maids, singers, city officials and wealthy families. At the same time, the Jurchens also wantonly searched for craftsmen and young people as slaves in Bianliang City.
This cycle of looting property and arresting young men and women has not stopped for several months. By the beginning of the second year, the original hoarding of materials in Bianliang City had been exhausted, and the people in the city began to eat food after eating food, cats, dogs, and even tree bark in the city, and countless people died of starvation. The nominally still existing court of the Wu Dynasty set up a point in the city, allowing the people in the city to exchange their treasures for some food to survive, and then import these treasures into the Jurchen military camp.
It was not until March of this year that the Jurchens began to escort a large number of captives northward, and at this time, the number of women and women in the Jurchen military camp who committed suicide or were molested to death had reached 10,000. And along the way, a large number of women's corpses are still thrown out of the Jurchen military camp every day after being tortured and humiliated.
Although later historians were more willing to record the suffering of thousands of concubines, imperial concubines, and high-ranking officials and wealthy women, or the humiliation suffered by those who were emperors themselves, in order to show their misery. But in fact, these women with a certain status, when the Jurchens were abused by the Jurchens, they still had a little hands. And the rest of the tens of thousands of civilian women and women, on this way, are really treated like pigs and dogs, and they are often beaten and killed.
Until they arrived in the territory of the Jin Kingdom, this time the Jurchen army captured the men and women from the south, and there were still as many as more than 100,000 people, excluding the dead, and these more than 100,000 people, women became prostitutes, and men were used as slaves, all of whom were bought and sold cheaply and at will. From the beginning of this thousand-mile bloody journey to the north, to the next few years, more than ten years of life, everything they have experienced is the real ......
Be extremely tragic! (To be continued.) )
