Chapter 26: Sophistry
Where there is no spread of war, the scenery is naturally much more beautiful and peaceful than the people who have been abused by the war, deep in the forest, birds and insects fly each have their own joy, originally these joys, should belong to all species on this land, but, why are some people unwilling to accept the status quo, so that this balance has been broken again and again.
After ridiculing Yuwentai, Er Zhuyan suddenly remembered the matter and asked: "The king of Taiyuan can be in the tent"
Yuwentai replied: "Yes, it's just ......" Yuwentai still wanted to say something, but the words came to his mouth, but he didn't swallow it.
Er Zhuyan said with a little emotion: "I just came back from the battlefield on the border, this way, I have seen a lot of civilians who have nowhere to live because of the war, the defense of the imperial court does not play any role at all, why does the Erzhu family refuse to fight, you and I both know that those gentlemen will not be able to hold those cities at all, when the time comes, the enemy army will enter the city, and the bloodbath will be the corpses of my people of Dawei, I don't know what my father is thinking, in these, people will use swords and I will be fish and meat, and Dawei will really become a meal on the plate of the rebels."
Er Zhuyan's words, how could Yuwentai not know, it's just that where the talisman is placed, without the order of the king of Taiyuan, who dares to send troops without authorization.
Er Zhuyan's sudden appearance, like the war that had existed here, had reached a serious crisis that had to be resolved.
The army of Southern Liang, under the leadership of Chen Qingzhi, in the name of hoeing and raping for Northern Wei and supporting Allah Yuanhao, plus the Northern Wei side, the emperor did not want Er Zhurong to make war achievements, but sent a group of royal children who did not have any battlefield experience to meet the enemy in a hurry, and soon, the city was lost again and again, at this moment, it has reached the final period when Northern Wei is on the verge of extinction, if Luoyang is lost once, the army's heart is scattered, and then it is really a lack of skills.
He Bayue knew that Er Zhu Yan was here, what he saw and heard on the road, and he had his own countermeasures in his heart, "What is the good plan of the son, but it doesn't hurt to say it, it is really a blessing for the people." I and Kurose will do our best to assist," said, He Bayue knelt on the ground very formally, Yuwentai saw this, and knelt down on one knee like him and held ten hands to Er Zhuyan, his eyes were resolute, and his eyes were as deep as the sea.
"Big brother's words are wrong, saving the crisis and helping the chaos is the fate of my generals, but it is just a battlefield to recruit human bones, and it has always been an inch. Once a centurion, the glitz is soaked in the eyes. The father was only blinded by power, so he would listen to the wolf's ambition to pacing the world, and let the people suffer in vain. What is the eldest brother doing, Mu Qing just wants to do something meaningful for the people, just to protect the homes where they have lived for generations for the unjust souls who died tragically under the rule of inaction" Er Zhuyan had not finished speaking, and saw that He Bayue was already in tears.
"The talent of the son, how can he lose the man"
Er Zhuyan said: "If you are a man, you will only want to spend the rest of your life on the battlefield, guard one side, and let the entire Central Plains, in the fluttering of the flag of my Great Wei Dynasty, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the traffic is strange, and the chickens and dogs smell each other." I don't want to see this scene like this again. The country is ruined, the people are in danger of fire and water, the widows are lonely, they have no food, they have no clothes, and the rivers are stained with blood."
At that time, Er Zhuyan herself didn't know that one day, her words would really come true as she expected at the time.
He Batyue asked, "What is the son's plan?"
"I've been away from home for a long time, and it's time to go and meet my father" After speaking, Er Zhuyan's star-like eyes became more and more transparent, as if she was like an experienced warrior, which shows that the experience of more than two years has been a change for her.
Since Er Zhu Yan escaped from marriage, Er Zhu Ying'e has been taking the place of her as the eldest daughter of the Er Zhu family to study art in Luoyang, perhaps in other words, to marry the royal wife.
As for the news of her escape, how could Er Zhurong, who has a heavy army and knows the news of the capital well, not know that for so many years, he has been inquiring about Er Zhuyan's whereabouts all the time. In the end, the people who were looking for it changed from wave to wave, but they still didn't find the slightest message from Er Zhuyan.
At this time, the "newspaper" walked into a small soldier from outside the military tent, lowered his head and looked wolf-like around the left and right, the surrounding layout was simple, in addition to being larger than the usual tent, there were a few more sets of cushions, and then look at this pawn, a suit of armor that did not fit well walked and made a noise, and the saber on his waist kept shaking.
Compared with the well-trained and lively outside the account, the atmosphere inside the tent is more silent, and I saw that in front of the coach's table, a veteran of about forty years walked around the handsome camp and looked a little old.
"What's the matter" As soon as this person turned around, he had a flat beard, some of his temples were already gray, and he was wearing a new suit of armor, no matter how he looked at it, he was a leader.
The pawn said: "What's the matter, take your dog's life"
Before the pawn could draw his knife, Er Zhurong immediately kicked him sideways, and then added a turn to put the pawn aside. Thinking about it, Er Zhurong has been on the battlefield for decades, and has experienced no less than tens of thousands of battles, so how can he not know about this kind of sneak attack around him.
"How did you find me, I hid it well, it's impossible" The pawn was put on the ground by Er Zhurong with three punches and two punches, obviously for Er Zhurong to fall to reason.
Er Zhurong said: "The old man has been fighting on the battlefield since he was twelve years old, you are a little trick, how can you hide from the world, who sent you, and you don't recruit it quickly."
The pawn said very unwillingly: "The king of Taiyuan is worthy of being the king of Taiyuan, and now he is captured by you, it is my life, but you don't have the ability to kill me."
"Really?" Er Zhurong thought it was ridiculous and said, but he didn't know that this pawn was being locked by Er Zhurong's one-word sheep capture technique at this moment, as long as Er Zhurong gently turned the hand hooked on his neck, his neck could be twisted off in an instant.
The pawn said without fear: "Doesn't the king of Taiyuan feel faint at this time?" ”
If the pawn didn't say it, Er Zhurong might not have felt it, and not long after the pawn said it, Er Zhurong felt dizzy. "You, bastard, actually use the shameless technique of the warlocks of the rivers and lakes" Before the words were spoken, Er Zhurong was gradually lost his strength by the bursts of ** Ma Que, and only heard a bang, Er Zhurong fell to the ground, and it didn't have any effect on the pawn at all.
The pawn succeeded in his plan and slowly stood up, slowly walked to Er Zhurong, who no longer had any combat effectiveness, and picked up the sword he threw on the ground, "I know that I am not the opponent of the King of Taiyuan, so why should I fight with you, no matter what means I use, as long as I can avenge the souls who died tragically under your butcher's knife in the end." ”
"You" "You" Er Zhurong said with all his strength: "This king now gives an order, and countless people will rush in and hack you to death" As he spoke, he also wanted to give the order and moved his body to the back.
The pawn didn't show any fear, waved his sword and walked towards him step by step, whispering to him: "Then you have to wait until you have the strength to shout" After speaking, his sword was raised from the air
"I'm going to cut you with a thousand knives to anger the wrath of this king," Er Zhurong was already ready to return here.
"Then you can tell Hades, but before you tell Hades, I don't know if the unjust souls who died tragically under your iron horse on the bridge will let you go." As he spoke, the pawn's sword was swung down very quickly, and Er Zhurong's pupils stared closely at the sword that had accompanied him for many years, but he didn't expect that today, he would end him here.
"Whew", I don't know where I quickly rushed into a white shadow, only to feel like the wind, the tent blew a crack, and before I had time to take a closer look, the pawn was kicked to the ground. Er Zhurong's eyes, which had not moved at all, suddenly flashed as if the crisis was lifted, and indeed he fell to the ground without danger now.
At this moment, the soldiers outside the tent noticed that a small group of soldiers inside were not quite right, and rushed in to "protect the king of Taiyuan and catch him"
"Abba! Abba! Wake up! Er Zhuyan took Er Zhurong in her arms with a panicked face, and looked at Er Zhurong with fluttering eyes, her anxious little face was pale with fright.
"General, general" I don't know when, a general in silver and black armor rushed in and stood on the left side to support Er Zhurong, this person was a staff member that Er Zhuyan had never seen before, but at this moment, he was calmer than anyone else. Er Zhuyan didn't know what he was looking for, but he saw him looking left and right, and there were messy traces of fighting on the ground, and he locked on the dagger on the red carpet in the tent of King Taiyuan and the smell on his body at a glance.
After "Chi You Gu" finished speaking, he turned around very quickly and gently flattened Er Zhurong, Er Zhuyan's mind was in chaos at this moment, and several generals rushed over from outside the big account one after another, but seeing Er Zhurong like this, he could only stand aside and be anxious.
At this time, out of nowhere, Erzhu Zhao rushed over in a hurry, "It was your kid who assassinated my uncle, see if I don't take your dog's life immediately" Erzhu Zhao angrily grabbed the man from the ground, and the knife next to him that threatened the pawn on his neck was also very interesting. I don't know if it's this little pawn who is on his back, and he was beaten half to death by Er Zhu Zhao before he was swept up from the ground.
Everyone was silent in the evil thought of revenge, only to know that at this time, the man in silver and black armor suddenly stood up and grabbed Er Zhu Zhao, who was still about to punch, and then looked at the man, who had been beaten and couldn't stand, he was staggering in a daze, and his face was already blurred with blood, "Young General and slow" It's just that at this time, Er Zhu Zhao was angry and refused to listen to his obstruction.
"This kid framed my uncle, if I don't teach him a lesson, how can I let my uncle suffer from this thief" Erzhu Zhao stubbornly pushed the man's hand away.
"Even if the young general kills him, it won't help" The man suddenly scolded loudly, seeing that Er Zhu Zhao was still unmoved, he could only persuade him in a good voice, "The king of Taiyuan is not killed, but a Gu, if you kill him, what is better than Gu." Where the hell did you get the poison?" the man asked him.
"At the end of the crossbow, what do you want. Can I have this world hero to bury me, Ning Yu is broken, not the whole thing" The pawn's voice may not be, Er Zhu Zhao punched up from the jaw, and the three hundred and sixty-five people who were beaten spun and fell to the ground, and when he fell from the air, the blood that was beaten was unrestrained. A drop happened to drop on Er Zhurong's body, and you felt that Er Zhurong seemed to have a reaction and moved.
"Abba" Er Zhuyan looked at Er Zhurong who was trembling slightly in his arms in surprise. The man looked back suspiciously, slightly puzzled, and immediately solved the doubts in his heart at this time.
Seeing that the blood overflowed on Er Zhurong's body reacted, he simply had a not very sure thought, "Chi You Gu, could it be that its solution is to see blood, no wonder the blood dripped on his body just now, the general will move, if there is a large amount of blood, ...... like this" He pondered in his heart for a long time, walked to Er Zhurong's side, picked up the dagger, and the people where he was were stunned, and even someone had already aimed the direction of the sword at him.
"Gao Huan, what are you doing?" Erzhu Shilong poked his head out in cringe, holding his sword and pointing at Gao Huan.
Similarly, hearing this name, Er Zhuyan's heart suddenly swept through thousands of ripples, if it wasn't for the passer-by who met in Pingshui on the way to Luoyang and pulled out a knife to help, maybe she would really obey the arrangement of fate and marry the imperial palace, that is, the frightening flick in the red dust, so that she had the idea of wanting to be a white guest, pointing to the end of the world "Gao Huan~" This person she has been thinking about all the way is actually him.
"I'm making a bold attempt, but I don't have a 1 in 1,000 chance of winning," he said, holding his knife and walking further towards Erzhurong.
Er Zhu Zhongyuan said: "He Liuhun, I warn you, you are not allowed to hurt the general, otherwise you will ......."
"The general is already in danger, and the imperial doctor is helpless, which means that the general is not poison, but Gu, if I don't do this, the general will definitely die." Originally, he wanted to say something, but he took the dagger and aimed it at Er Zhurong again, at this moment, the people of the Erzhu family must not be able to trust outsiders.
Er Zhuyan said suddenly: "Third brother, I believe him, Daddy is unconscious like this, this method is nothing more than one of the no means, since everyone is helpless, it is better to let this person try it."
"Mu Qing," Er Zhu Zhongyuan said very reluctantly. Since the pacification of Ge Rong, the private relationship between Er Zhu Zhao and Er Zhu Zhongyuan has been very tense because of the marquis issue, and looking at the current situation, it must be that this He Liuhun may be from Er Zhu Zhao's camp, so he strongly opposes it. "I believe in him," she said, Er Zhuyan's very determined eyes looked like Gao Huan.
Gao Huan saw that Er Zhuyan believed him so much, so he nodded slowly. Then he picked up the dagger, and to everyone's surprise, he actually aimed the dagger in the direction of himself. Bright red blood flowed down his arm, and he said with a forced face, "Young boy, please spread out the general's sleeves"
"Hmm" Er Zhuyan obediently put Er Zhurong down, lifted his sleeves with a little urgency, and saw a black thing scurrying around in his abdomen. At this time, Gao Huan slowly moved the bloody arm to Er Zhurong's abdomen, and the blood dripped on his body, at this moment, the black thing gathered and approached together, and the sweat on Er Zhurong's forehead, who was already faint, was inexhaustible, just now Er Zhuyan had been releasing the sweat to him next to him, only to feel that his expression was more painful than just now, he opened his eyes in pain, his eyes were cracked, and his pupils were burning.
"Look, that black silk has gathered, gathered," the people around looked at in surprise.
Er Zhuyan was even more scared at this time, judging from the signs of Er Zhurong struggling to break free, he was very painful at this time. "Abba" she was sweating for Er Zhurong, and she didn't know what to do.
"Are you scared?" I felt a low voice coming from her left.
"Don't be afraid!"
"That's good, when all the black qi gathers together, you use your sword to pull Gu out of the general's body, do you dare."
"I" Er Zhuyan looked at him, a little sluggish, and then looked at Er Zhurong, who was particularly painful now, and her trembling voice replied, "Dare, I dare"
"Okay, that's good, when I say the beginning, you swing your sword quickly, remember, you must be fast." His voice was very smooth, and Er Zhuyan could feel it, presumably the degree of fright and grasp in his heart at this time was no less than hers, but he still encouraged her very gently and slowly.
"Okay." Er Zhuyan stood up tremblingly, holding the sword, her hands kept shaking, although she knew clearly in her heart that this was a big risk, but she knew that she had to do it, and she had to be steadfast.
"Yes, that's it, don't be nervous, the qi returns to the dantian, and the breath is smooth" Gao Huan guided Er Zhuyan step by step, and then he said to the imperial doctor next to him, "Imperial doctor, after the young man cuts through the Gu worms, you remember to stitch and bandage the general immediately, remember, the needle and thread must have been soaked in wine." ”
"Good!" At this time, the imperial doctor was also trembling with great worry and knelt beside Er Zhurong, hurriedly holding the sewing kit, the soldiers were beating wine, and the others were watching from a distance.
Sure enough, as Gao Huan expected, they really gathered together with the black silk, and they were getting smaller and smaller.
"It's now, young boy," Gao Huan shouted hurriedly. I saw Er Zhuyan pass the sword very quickly, and a black-red blood stain flowed out of Er Zhurong's abdomen, and the imperial doctor was busy doing postoperative work, and then looked at the black insects that had been about two inches at the end of the sword were shaking constantly. Er Zhuyan's swordsmanship is very accurate, she hooked out the worm, but the worm was not damaged at all. It was still swaying from side to side intact.
Er Zhu Zhao walked up to Er Zhu Yan's sword, and couldn't believe that someone could practice the sword trick so well, "It's this little thing that makes my uncle feel pain" After speaking, he grabbed the thing and walked to the pawn who was beaten by him with only half a life.
"You used this trick to assassinate my uncle, why don't you let you also suffer it" As he spoke, Er Zhu Zhao had already stuffed the Gu worm into the mouth of the little pawn. The pawn suddenly died of pain and rolled on the ground.
Er Zhuyan withdrew the sword and quietly put it in the scabbard, everyone's hearts were finally put down, and Gao Huan didn't notice that his arm was still bloody, "Your hand" Er Zhuyan quickly took out a light blue handkerchief from his waist.
"It's okay, young boy" Gao Huan wanted to say something, but Er Zhuyan grabbed his hand.
"Then what's the matter, if you don't deal with it well, you'll get infected, and you're doing this to save your father, no matter what, you're the lifesaver of the Erzhu family." She gently bandaged his arm, and did not forget to nag.
After bandaging, Gao Huan gently put down his hand and walked out in the direction of the outside of the tent, Er Zhuyan saw his dagger falling on the ground, so he picked it up and chased it out. "You wait~"
"Childe, what's the matter!" He Liuhun stood quietly outside the tent and suddenly turned to look at Er Zhuyan, who was dressed as a man.
Er Zhuyan hesitated slightly: "Your dagger" Once upon a time, this handsome face went in and out of her sleep many times, and several times rescued her from the dim and bloody pool of blood in her dream realm. And the name of that person, I don't know how many times it echoed in her ears, she still remembers, that time, he rode his horse and whip the shocking look back. The word "Gao Huan" may have become a hero in her mind since then.
Gao Huan tried to take the dagger, but Er Zhuyan dragged it stiffly, and he looked at Er Zhuyan very unanswered, "Young boy, you?" Er Zhuyan looked at him quietly, and for a while, even if a thousand words flashed in his mind, he couldn't spit out a word.
"Ahh Er Zhuyan looked at Gao Huan's expression of wanting to speak and stopped, and pressed the seven souls and nine spirits out of the sheath into her body. After looking at Gao Huan's slightly embarrassed expression, she immediately let go, she relieved her nervousness and put her hands down and pinched the corners of her skirt, and said with a slight turn, "What a seven-star dagger, General Gao must have spent a lot of time to get it!" ”
Gao Huan slowly picked up the dagger and looked at it with a little contemplation, few people in the world can recognize this treasure at a glance, and suddenly couldn't help but sigh at the person in front of him, "The young man has good eyesight, just look at it, you can recognize this thing, and he is really a hero among people"
Er Zhuyan said: "Mu Qing only suddenly heard about this thing, it is said that this thing was Cao Cao's assassination of Dong Zhuo, and later the assassination failed, Cao Cao took the opportunity to dedicate this thing to Dong Zhuo, and later Wang Yun borrowed Shi Meiren's strategy, after Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo, this dagger disappeared, but I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the general."
Gao Huan silently looked at the dagger in his hand, and sighed in a slightly nostalgic tone: "This dagger was originally owned by a Xianbei nobleman, but because of a chance encounter, it fell into my hands."
At this point in the discussion, Gao Huan couldn't help but think of his fate with this treasure knife, Gao Huan was originally on the edge of the city wall, a hundred workers who built the city wall, and a chance encounter rescued him, Situ Lou Neigan of the Northern Wei Dynasty, mentioning that this Lou Neigan was the son of Lou Ti, the Marquis of Zhending of the Northern Wei Dynasty. During the period of Emperor Xuanwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Lou Neigan served as a gift to Situ, and the father and son were both officials. It is also a famous family and occupies a place in the current court.
On the edge of the Great Wall, Gao Huan and Lou Neigan chatted freely, and appreciated this talented young man very much, so he gave him the seven-star Yingluo dagger he carried, and Gao Huan also ushered in another spring in his life. Married Lou Neigan's daughter - Lou Zhaojun.
This step to the sky did not make Gao Huan swell or confused, self-cultivation, Qi family, Gao Huan only experienced a short half of the journey in his life, and later because of the Six Towns Uprising, the Northern Wei Dynasty weakened, he became popular, and the neighbors of Fulu set their sights on the more distant and long rivers and lakes.
With the relatively solid foundation of the Lou family, as the treasury behind Gao Huan, Gao Huan quickly made friends with a number of heroes, such as the natural divine strength and amazing arm strength, with the appearance of a tiger and wolf, and He Bayun, who can be called a think tank. At first, Gao Huan first defected to Ge Rong's command, and under the impact of the experience, Gao Huan gradually discovered that Ge Rong was only satisfied with the status quo in the Central Plains.
Later, when he was confused, it happened that Er Zhurong's eldest daughter had the opportunity to marry the capital, he rescued Er Zhuyan who was chased by a group of thieves, and after learning that she was Er Zhurong's person, Gao Huan took the opportunity to defect to Er Zhurong and became a double-faced guest between Er Zhurong and Ge Rong.
Gao Huan looked at Er Zhuyan again, and the duckweed in his heart gradually fell silent. "If the young son likes it, Huan will give this dagger to the son" After finishing speaking, Gao Huan had already pushed the dagger in front of Er Zhuyan.
Er Zhuyan suddenly looked at Gao Huan in shock: "I" At this moment, I don't see the chivalrous and soft male spirit, but it is really comfortable to add a lot of girls and children.
"Madam, I finally found you" Before Er Zhuyan could react, she felt that suddenly, a terrifying cold air slowly overflowed from the dantian.
