Chapter Seventy-Eight: Separation
The clouds are light and the wind is light, after a rain has fallen, the sky has turned blue, although the sun is shining, but the season has entered winter, the air is with a chill, compared to the dampness of the rain soaking through the clothes, or the sun is more comfortable on the body.
Xiang Qing and Cao Cao stood side by side, the two of them had their hands behind their backs, their heads raised, their eyes staring intently at the sky, the posture of the two was exactly the same, it was such a posture, they had maintained it for a long time.
Cao Chun touched Xiang Xu's shoulder and asked curiously, "Hey, what do you say the eldest brother and second brother are looking at?" Is there nothing in the sky? β
Xiang Xu shook his head: "I don't know." β
Cao Chun asked again: "Eighth brother! This time, Brother Qi came desperately to save you, do you want to thank me? β
"Thank you." Xiang Xu replied.
Cao Chun scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, but still asked helplessly: "If you say a few more words, will you die?" β
"No, it won't."
"Ahhh It's a waste of tongue to talk to you, alas, I ignore you like this! β
"Okay."
In the end, Cao Chun was completely "defeated" by Xiang Xu, and it was not naΓ―ve that defeated him, but innocence.
Xiahou Yuan and they watched Cao Chun tirelessly chatting with Xiang Xu, and they were also snickering in their hearts, it was strange to say, as far as Xiang Xu's cold appearance was like an iceberg, Cao Chun just liked to be with him, since Cao Chun's cold personality was shattered by Xiang Xu, Cao Chun immediately turned into a "deep resentful woman" and began to chatter about Xiang Xu, the purpose was to make Xiang Xu's personality collapse like himself.
Although his purpose was shattered again and again, he was still addicted to it and enjoyed it, this Cao Chun and Xiang Xu were like enemies in the previous life.
Xiang Qing and Cao Cao stood for a long time, standing until their necks were sore, and the two finally moved, and walked to the center of the crowd in unison.
"Junhe, are you really not going back to Qian County with me?" Cao Cao asked.
Xiang Qing sighed and replied, "Alas...... No, I'll have to figure these things out. β
"Okay, then leave it at that?"
"Well, let's separate here, and go back with my brothers."
Xiahou Yuan asked suspiciously, "Second brother!" Why don't you go back with us? β
Xiahoudun shouted: "I understand what the second brother means, you definitely want to kill Dong Zhuo!" Second brother, if you have something to say, just say it! As long as you give an order, the brothers will never say anything! β
Xiang Qing shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not Dong Zhuo who wants to kill me." β
"Who's that?"
Xiang Qing raised his head, the sun shone on his face, he closed his eyes, stretched out his right index finger and pointed at the sky, and said, "I'm afraid he wants to kill me." β
Everyone is nothing, God, there is only one person who can think of it, that is the emperor of the world, the Son of Heaven, Emperor Han Ling!
In fact, Xiang Qing didn't know why, he was very sure in his heart that Emperor Han Ling just wanted to kill him, because they all knew each other's secrets, so Emperor Han Ling couldn't tolerate him, and his intuition was really accurate.
When he opened his eyes again, Xiang Qing's eyes were completely cold, Xiang Qing, who was always smiling in the past, finally restrained his smile, you must know what he wanted to do, it was against the Son of Heaven!
Xiang Qing said to Cao Cao: "Big brother, I still have to borrow someone from you." β
Cao Cao laughed: "Junhe, how can there be a borrowed statement between you and me, but it doesn't hurt for you to say it." β
Xiang Qing pointed at Cao Chun, and Cao Chun pointed at himself, which means: Me?
"Xiao Qi, your swordsmanship is very good, I need your help, but I have to say it in advance, if you follow me, there will be countless dangers, are you willing?"
Cao Chun glanced at Xiang Xu and immediately replied, "Second brother, you don't have to say anything, I am definitely willing." β
"Okay."
Cao Cao waved his hand and gave an order, Cao Ren waved the order flag, the black armor army immediately got up, and the whole team was silent, such an elite army, I don't know how Cao Ren trained it.
Xiang Qing squinted at this army of black iron armor, majestic armor, burly and sturdy soldiers, and neighing horses, even compared to the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and Luoyang Elite Cavalry.
"Big brother, this cavalry is so powerful, shouldn't it be named?"
Cao Cao glanced back at the army and asked, "I really haven't thought about this, your name is quite a bit of artistic conception, why don't you think of one?" β
Xiang Qing blurted out: "Tiger and leopard ride!" β
Cao Cao pondered for a moment, read it a few times, and said with a smile: "Tiger and leopard ride, tiger and leopard, like a tiger like a leopard, hahaha, it's called tiger and leopard riding!" I hope that one day, the name of the tiger and leopard riding can deter the Quartet and protect the territory of the Han Dynasty! β
"Definitely!"
The two said goodbye with a smile, and in addition to Xiang Xu, Liu Hu, and Cao Chun, there were two thousand Luoyang Han troops behind Xiang Qing, and their eyes were always staring at the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Cao Cao, and the two equally elite armies were also competing in secret.
Xiang Qing called the commander of the Luoyang Han Army and asked him to return to Luoyang with the army, and at the same time brought the general seal of the general of Zhengxi, asking him to go back and tell the imperial court, General Zhengxi Lao Tzu is fucking gone, whoever likes to be should go. That's what I said.
Watching the Luoyang Han Army leave, Xiang Qing glanced back at the three people behind him, and said with a smile: "Xiao Xu, Xiao Qi, Huzi, go!" Let's go back to Moto-Nao and the mouse. β
Liu Hu lowered his head, blushed and said, "General, the rat and Shan Fu have been killed by them." β
Xiang Qing patted Liu Hu's shoulder, raised his head to prevent tears from coming out, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said: "I haven't seen the corpse yet, right, that means I'm not dead, if I want to see people alive, I want to see corpses when I die, Huzi, raise your head and follow me." β
Looking at Xiang Qing's footsteps gradually moving away, Xiang Xu and Cao Chun immediately followed the pace, Liu Hu wiped away his tears, pulled out the halberd from the ground and carried it behind him, and trotted a few steps to keep up with the three of them.
At this time, Xiang Qing turned around and said: "I'm not a bullshit general who marches to the west anymore, let's call it the second master, it's comfortable to listen to." β
"No! Second master! β
β¦β¦
The light of the bonfire shone on Xiang Qing's face, the dry wood made a crackling sound, and Xiang Qing held the thundering sword in his hand and played with the bonfire from time to time, making him burn more fully and release more heat, so that the sleeping Xiang Xu and Cao Chun felt warm.
Liu Hu stood not far away as a guard, responsible for driving away the approaching beasts, but he also leaned against the tree and yawned, his eyes were bloodshot, Xiang Qing asked him to sleep too, he just refused.
The night was already very late, but Xiang Qing still didn't feel sleepy.
What has always come to mind is the scene of those soldiers dying in front of him, yesterday he was the hero who defeated the Qianghu people, and in the blink of an eye, he became the soul of the dead who died at the hands of those people, and even had to be branded as a thief, as soon as he thought of this, he felt that there was a fire burning in his heart.
Dong Zhuo, Ma Teng, Han Sui, these three people, killed countless Han family sons, they are all heroes who defend the country, and they died in the wilderness to save me, I Xiang Qing swear here! The heads of the three of you will be used to pay tribute to the souls of the dead soldiers!
The firelight of the bonfire was reflected in Xiang Qing's pupils, and the firelight became more and more intense, as if it engulfed Xiang Qing's entire eyes.
His head suddenly lifted, his eyes staring straight ahead, frowning as if he wanted to see through the darkness in front of the campfire.
A figure in black, step by step, walked towards Xiang Qing, seven feet tall, well-proportioned, the sleeves of the forearm were tightly bound with a belt, the pants were in the boots, he was dressed exceptionally smartly, his long hair was tied with a strip of cloth on the top of his head, and a long sword was around his waist.
The man's pace was unhurried, but in Xiang Qing's eyes, it was like a fierce beast slowly approaching, and the bloody aura on his body was almost as heavy as his.
Liu Hu suddenly felt a strong murderous aura, he opened his sleepy eyes, and just saw the person walking towards him, he wanted to pull out the double halberd, and wanted to shout loudly, but the strong murderous aura seemed to block all his actions, making him unable to move.
After the man in black walked past Liu Hu, Liu Hu found that his back was all wet with cold sweat, and the beads of sweat on his forehead were also left on his cheeks, even if he was only facing the side of the man in black, he felt like he was being stared at by a fierce tiger.
This man is terrible! It's just like I face the second master! Liu Hu thought to himself.
The man in black walked to the money, and the firelight also illuminated his face, he did not cover his face, the right side of his face was full of cyan birthmarks, and the left face was very delicate, it is hard for you to imagine, the right face is ugly to the extreme, and the left face is handsome to the extreme, it is such a contradictory face, which is in Xiang Qing's eyes at this moment.
This person stopped, but Xiang Qing didn't look at him anymore, he still used the thundering sword to pluck the firewood, the flames cheered, and a spark fell on the back of the man in black's hand, according to common sense, a normal person will definitely pull his hand immediately if he is burned, this is a knee-jerk reaction, but this man in black didn't move, this person can even control it subconsciously, master!
Xiang Qing smiled: "I have a few questions here, do you have the answers there?" β
The man in black replied, "I have the answer to your question, but if you want the answer, you need to win over me first." β
The two have actually begun to fight, the sword has not yet been unsheathed, but the momentum has begun to clash, after experiencing the Yinchuan mutiny, Xiang Qing has learned to restrain the murderous spirit, his momentum, not angry and self-assured.
And this man in black is very similar to Xiang Qing when he was in Liangzhou, with a murderous aura, facing him as if facing a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, as if a blood-colored wave was surging from the horizon, flooding the entire sky.
In the face of the murderous aura of the blood-colored wave of the man in black, Xiang Qing is like a thick dam, blocking the tide throughout, let you storm the waves, I am as immobile as a mountain, his breath is always stable, but it is the man in black, it is difficult to maintain such a huge wave.
Liu Hu came to his senses and shouted: "Who are you!" β
drank a lot in this life, but it scared Xiang Xu and Cao Chun awake.
Xiang Xu opened his eyes in a daze, looked at Xiang Qing and the man in black suspiciously, and asked, "Brother, who is he?" β
Cao Chun stood up smartly, immediately drew his sword, and shouted, "Second brother, I fought with this person!" The swordsmanship is extremely domineering, and the body is elegant and ghostly, which should not be underestimated! β
The man in black slowly spoke: "My name: Shi A! β
