Volume 2 Ember Chapter 87 The Last Way

The team stood outside the hostel, ready to go. And Yan Yitu still stayed in the atrium, silent for a long time.

"Is this your plan?" Beitang Sheng stepped into the atrium, and his eyes were full of corpses and severed heads, and he retched uncomfortably.

"Let Yi Yu go, and urge Ning Ye to intercept and kill him personally."

"It's a few points away." Yan Yitu whispered.

"But what if Ning Ye had already seen through your plan...... He's been waiting for you to show your fangs, and then he's going to kill you! ”

"It doesn't matter. One of the part of the plan, and my most critical helper, has already arrived from Martial Arts City. Even if Ning Ye found out about my rebellion, he wouldn't have a chance to kill me again. Not to mention...... Now the itinerary has moved forward to what I wanted. ”

On the outskirts of Liesun City, two horse-drawn carriages were moving slowly. Four well-drawn carriages were loaded with the grain and grass needed for the journey. A man sat at the front desk, holding a whip in his hand, driving the horses. The horses are all good horses that have been resting for many days and are full of energy, but on this dirt road that is not easy to walk, even the best horses have to slow down.

Further on, there is a small lake, which reflects a dazzling light through the sun's scorching surface, and many areas on it have been frozen, showing a thin layer of ice.

The rider waved his whip, and the docile horse had already turned its course.

Sikong Xi sat on the back of the carriage and straightened his legs to stabilize his body. At this moment, he suddenly raised his hand and threw the stone in his hand into the frozen lake, smashing out an ice hole. He cheered and jumped to pull the ancient key beside him, as if asking for credit.

"Senior brother, look!" Sikong Xi pointed to the ice cave.

"What's this?" Gu Jian squinted his eyes to look at the ice cave, and couldn't help laughing, "Look at me!" ”

He picked up a copper baht in his bag, straightened up like a bow, and only heard a "bang", and the copper baht had already broken through the wind, smashing out a larger ice hole.

"How?" The ancient key stared at Sikong Xi.

"Good! How dare you take the money to smash this ice hole! Sikong Xi looked at the smug face and suddenly shouted, "I'll go tell Director Yi!" ”

Gu Key was stunned for a moment, and rushed up to hold Sikong Xi, stucking his neck tightly, "You kid! Dare to calculate me! ”

"No...... No, no, misunderstanding, brother! Mr. Eh...... Help me! ”

Yi Yu, who was riding the horse, leaned over and looked at the two behind him, and shook his head with a smile.

"You two, stop making trouble." His mouth chewed on the wild silver pill grass picked up on the side of the road, and his voice was a little blurred, "The next time will not be too peaceful!" ”

Gu Jian let go of Sikong Xi at the right time, and was a little strange about Yi Yu's words, "Director, this is...... What do you mean? ”

"What do you think?" Yi Yu's free hand suddenly pressed Yin Yuan on his waist, and his eyebrows stopped smiling.

"Our whereabouts exposed?" The Ancient Key stared at him.

"No, it's not our whereabouts that have been revealed. It's them, wolf Gu. ”

"Wolf Gu!?" Sikong Xi jumped up suddenly, and he didn't care about the pain, so he leaned towards the two.

"That's right." Yi Yu whispered, "But it seems that they have only just arrived in the suburbs of Liexun. The purpose of this trip may be to instigate rebellion against Lord Liexun. ”

"Suburban ......" Gu Jian was stunned, "Director...... What are you doing?! ”

"What for?" Yi Yu raised his eyes to look at him, but he just smiled, "Of course it's a return to the military." ”

"You...... Is it to intercept the wolf Gu here? Director. Sikong Xi's face tensed.

"Boy...... I used to be stupid enough to think you were a good-for-nothing Hanako. Yi Yu was a little dumbfounded.

"Director, why ......" Gu Key interrupted him, "We have successfully borrowed the Fan Long Seal from Lord Liexun, and we have already mastered half of his commanding forces. ”

"But who can guarantee that Lord Lieson will not rebel against us? In the eyes of others, this Fan Long seal may be a talisman for mobilizing military power, but in his eyes, it is just a piece of scrap metal. ”

"This Lu Chi was born rebellious, and the reason why he has not been impeached is that the faint emperor favored him. But Lu Chi is not stupid, he can be invincible in the infighting between the royal family, which is enough to reflect his strategy. And now Wolf Gu's rebellion must have the intention of King Guangcai Wu, and all the preparations we have made will be in vain. ”

"So what do we do?" Sikong Xi squeezed the sheath tightly.

Directly ahead, the official road connected by the small road was flat and open, but Yi Yu did not drive the carriage to the official road, but continued to travel along the circuitous path. The lake behind was getting farther and farther away, but no one was still gravel on the ice.

"Phew!" Mixed with the sound of violently pumping the horsewhip, Yi Yu let out a low cry and stopped the carriage under a willow tree.

"What should I do, do you still need me to teach me?" Yi Yu laughed, the sheath of the sword scabbard flicked away, and Yin Yuan came out in response.

He turned over and dismounted, and the thin soft leather armor on his body made a slight grinding sound, and even the horses pulling the carriage seemed to smell a hint of something unusual.

"I'm going to stop all the wolf scouts here. This is not the Governor's order, and you don't need to obey me," he leaned over to look at the two of them, "If you don't want to die, follow the groom and leave the official road!" There, there will be someone to protect you. ”

Yi Yu seemed to have made great determination to say this. But the enemy he had to face was Guangcai's Wolf Gu Si, an almost invulnerable army. How can he alone stop Wolf Gu's edge? This is tantamount to using the mantis arm as a car.

"Director, this ...... What is the meaning? Sikong Xi's voice trembled.

"Pretty clear, I'm going to die here." Yi Yu's voice was quiet.

"But he didn't let you do such a senseless act!" Gu Key suddenly interjected, his brows furrowed, "Du Du will never allow any of his subordinates to do this act of sending him to death!" ”

Yi Yu raised Yinyuan to his chest, and his faint eyes followed the blade of the sword, "This is the inevitable end, from the moment I hold this Yinyuan sword, I should accept the death that will come at any time." And now, the hour has come. ”

"Director, do you really think that the Death Wolf Gu will make the Governor feel relieved if he stops them?" Gu Key glared at him.

"There is no need for this, everyone in Yuji is dead, I have survived so far, I am very satisfied, I should be happy to be able to use this Yinyuan to cut off the head of Wolf Gu."

But does that really work for the situation? If you can kill a team of wolf Gu, can you still kill the entire galloper? ”

Yi Yu slowly stopped his gaze, and his hand was very tight, "When I was young, I always thought, why do people kill people? Is it because the two sides are hostile? But since ancient and modern times, before the hostility, people have always been friends, close relatives of the blood, how could they have lifted the butcher's knife and landed on people's necks? ”

"I later found out that if you don't lift the knife and kill someone, someone else will take your knife and kill you! You have no right to choose at all, and as soon as you stop, the knife will fall on top of your head and cut off your head! ”

Yi Yu suddenly laughed at this time, and his smile always had a sad taste, as if he would never return to the person, so the person turned against him. But he didn't want to reveal it easily, so he only hid it in the deepest part.

"My life belongs to the governor, my position is the director of Yu under the command of the governor, and the evil sword in my hand that should not be in the world was also given to me by the governor." Yi Yu tilted his head, as if crying, "Du Du has already guessed this day, he has long understood that with Lu Chi's heart, he will easily believe in Wolf Gu's bewitchment." But he doesn't understand, and he won't understand......"

He closed his eyes, "This country of rotten wood is already full of holes. Lord Yan Ling is a great leader in the army, but he doesn't know how to maintain a country! ”

The distant and hoarse shouting and selling slowly drifted from afar, and the sound through the wilderness was much faster than the hawkers. The blood-like afterglow reflected everyone's face, like a face full of blood. When he left, the morning light was still dawning. And now, it's past sunset.

The cries of selling are getting closer and closer, but they can be found, but they are nowhere to be found. At this moment, a small dot suddenly appeared in the direction of the city, and the speed of the small dot was not slow, but it was not fast.

Sikong Xi squinted his eyes and saw clearly the hawker who had arrived. It was an old man driving a donkey cart who was unhurried, and from his shouting, it could be vaguely known that this old man was a melon seller who went north out of the city to the military service. It's just that in this harsh winter season, what kind of melons can be harvested?

"A few generals, but are you going north to the military service?" The donkey cart finally came, and the old man raised his whip to stop the lazy donkey under his crotch.

Yi Yu stared at the things on the donkey cart covered with dark rags, a dozen round ones, just as the old man shouted, these were the few pumpkins that had been snatched up.

"Exactly." Yi Yu's eyes always wandered on the old man, and he was suspicious. The old man was wearing a black coat, but the small hood just covered most of his face. He bowed his body, making it more difficult for people to see the eyebrows hidden in the shadows, "It's just old man, why did you go out of the city to the north at dusk?" ”

"It's a sad day!" The old man's hoarse voice was like a "rustle" sound made by the wind blowing the leaves, which made people shudder when they heard it, but the rarely undulating tone always made Yi Yu a little inexplicably familiar.

"Having a hard time?" Sikong Xi's face was a little strange, "In this barren mountains and mountains, no matter how difficult life is, I don't sell melons in the city, but go out of the north of the city to go to the military service, isn't this asking for trouble?" ”

"Uncle, how do you sell this melon?" Yi Yu glanced at Sikong Xi and interrupted him with something to say.

The old man was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Yi Yu to ask the price of this melon, "This melon ...... But it took a lot of effort for the old man to take it back, and if you want to ask the price, what should it be...... Ten silver and one tael. ”
