"Tired or not?"

The faint and light voice sounded slowly, pulling Du Pingfei's tense mind back. She withdrew her hand suddenly, and the hairpin tail brushed her fingertips slightly, which made her shiver!

At that moment just now, she wanted to kill this person!

But being so disturbed, it was obvious that she had missed the best opportunity, so she rolled up her sleeves and put the hairpin away.

Since she was lying on her back, she couldn't move too much, and only after she was slowly putting it away did she take a deep breath and slowly exhale, as if she was afraid that the movement would be too loud and the person would notice.

"Why don't you speak?" Xie Fenghua's voice sounded again, unaware of the danger just now.

Du Pingfei steadied his thoughts, trying to make his voice sound steady, "I'm a little tired." Why don't you take a break? ”

Xie Fenghua immediately stopped, put her down, and looked at the surrounding environment with his hands.

It was a relatively open flat land, surrounded by trees and shrubs, half a man high, and it was a temporary refuge.

Xie Fenghua found a stone, stood up, supported his knees with his palms and said, "The queen mother is so powerful, she can even know these small places so clearly, but I am impressed." ”

"Then you're impressed!" Du Pingfei glanced at her and sat down on a clean stone with his skirt up.

seems to have escaped the predicament of being surrounded by strong enemies, she has also come back to life, and her words have returned to the sharpness of the previous-for-tat, and she is not willing to suffer at all.

Xie Fenghua looked at her quietly, and after a while, he slowly walked up to her, squatted down, and looked at her.

She is taller than Du Pingfei, and although she is half-squatting, looking at it like this, it still gives people a feeling of looking down.

Xu was overwhelmed by her momentum, and Du Pingfei deliberately distanced himself from her.

In the dark, I couldn't see the look in my eyes clearly, but I only heard her say: "Now, this palace is alone, and everything must be considered." It's not as good as having your back against a tree. ”

Xie Fenghua sneered: "It's winter, and when it's cold, I'll freeze to death." ”

"Aren't you thick-skinned?" Du Pingfei glanced at her, his eyes were cold and waveless, "People with thick skin have always been very capable." ”

The corners of Xie Fenghua's mouth were hooked, as if he was smiling.

This person seems to have always been a bright and flamboyant existence. Despite all the things that have been experienced, that unique temperament has not decreased but increased, which is quite impressive.

At this moment, hearing Du Pingfei talk about this, she suddenly said lukewarmly: "You can bear it enough." ”

seemed to have no beginning and no end in four words, but Du Pingfei instantly understood the meaning.

But she would never admit defeat in front of this person, and immediately replied, "Forbearance is a strategy." The ability of this palace is still to come, wait and see! ”

"I've seen it, so I'm not going to have to wait and see!" Xie Fenghua smiled coldly and suddenly grabbed her hand.

Du Pingfei's heart trembled, trying to snatch his hand back. But she didn't want to, that hand was like an iron tong, no matter how she struggled, it was like an ant shaking a tree, not moving at all.

"What are you panicking about?" Xie Fenghua grabbed her hand, took out a hairpin from her sleeve, and sighed, "The workmanship is exquisite, but it's a good thing." It's a pity that it has become a murderous weapon in your hands. ”

Du Pingfei's blood seemed to be coagulated, and his eyes stared at the person in front of him without blinking, and he was a little afraid.

She knows everything!

But why didn't she expose herself until now?

"What do you want?" Du Pingfei unconsciously slowed down his breathing, his whole body was tense, and he looked at her vigilantly.

At first glance, it looks exactly like the frightened eyes of a fawn.

But Xie Fenghua knew that this was not a fawn, but a tigress who ate people and did not spit out bones.

Walking in the bloody battlefield all year round, she is not used to exposing her back to others. This time, in order to save Du Pingfei, she has already committed a big taboo. If she hadn't been vigilant enough to say that, would the hairpin have already stabbed the back of her neck?

She didn't dare to think about it, and she didn't speak.

The slender fingers pinched the hairpin, slowly turning it in the faint moonlight. The moon blossom flows at the tail of the hairpin, and the sharp is glowing with a cold light. This light, cold and bright, is like a sharp blade that has been practiced for a few years, and in an instant, it seems to turn into those bright eyes, with a sharp cold light and a sharp cold light approaching the door.

She stared at Du Pingfei quietly, her momentum as quiet as an abyss, unfathomable.

After a while, she pulled the corners of her lips and mocked: "I saved you, but you want to kill me?" ”

Du Pingfei snorted coldly and did not answer.

"Why?" Xie Fenghua slowly turned the hairpin, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked like a smile, and he looked gentle and harmless.

But with a pair of eyes, Du Pingfei suddenly had the urge to escape.

The light in her eyes was cold and bright, like the surface of a mirror lake, reflecting the treacherous scheming in her heart.

For a moment, she felt naked, and there was nowhere to hide from any calculation.

She wanted to stop it, but that pride wouldn't allow her to back down. Xu is heart was holding a breath of air, she simply stopped hiding it, and sneered to herself: "Do you need any reason to kill?" ”

"Huh?" Xie Fenghua was stunned, squinted his eyes slightly, stepped forward, and said with a smile, "Don't you need a reason?" ”

The two of them were so close that it seemed to have built a small space, and the mountain breeze stopped. Between breaths, the warm breath spewed on the cheeks, which was a little itchy and extremely uncomfortable.

Du Pingfei only felt that his breathing slowed down, and his psychology that could have been calmly provocative had been overwhelmed by the approaching momentum. She believed that if she said anything out of tune, the man would be able to tear her hands to shreds.

So, she slowly reined in the momentum of her whole body, and said coldly: "This palace doesn't like you, is this a reason?" ”

"Count! Why not? Xie Fenghua nodded thoughtfully, but he didn't intend to let her go, and continued to ask, "But I remember, I didn't provoke you, right?" On the contrary, it is you, who have come to me again and again for trouble, and even want to take my life! ”

Every time he said a word, Du Pingfei's face turned white.

In the end, Xie Fenghua patted her shoulder heavily, leaned over, bared his teeth and grinned: "Queen Mother, if you can't say why you came today, we won't go anywhere." ”

Du Ping was stunned when he flew on, and shouted in his throat: "Xie Er! Don't you dare! ”

"Why wouldn't I?" Xie Fenghua immediately sneered, "You want to take my life, do you really think I have no temper?" Do you really think I have to put aside my personal vendettas to protect you? If that's the case, then you're thinking too highly of me! I can't do this kind of thing to repay grievances with virtue. ”

Along the way, she desperately rescued her, but Du Pingfei desperately put cold arrows on her, which had already touched her bottom line.

In the past, she might not have put these methods into account. But at present, there is no way to retreat after the pursuers, and any mistake is very likely to cause an irreparable tragic end.

Du Pingfei didn't want to die, that was her business.

But she's afraid of death!

It is impossible to accompany Du Pingfei to play these adventures.

As soon as she thought of those stumbling steps and the lives that were calculated, the fire in her chest rushed up, and without saying a word, she grabbed her shirt and said viciously: "Originally, as long as you can distinguish the severity, I also plan to turn a blind eye." But I found that there is no such thing as the stupidest, only more stupid. If I don't beat you, you really can't do anything about me? Yes? ”

She seems to have been aroused by her temper, and she has been in the army all year round, and she has been somewhat tainted with some market atmosphere.

At this moment, he forced Du Pingfei to come forward, and the action of pulling was merciless, no matter how long Du Pingfei had endured the wind and waves, he couldn't help but change his face, and said coldly: "Xie Er!" You let go! You're just a small commander of the Imperial Guards, what qualifications do you have to do this to this palace? Is it really that Hongu is papier-mâché? ”

"Shut up!" Xie Fenghua lifted her collar and said coldly like a chicken, "I'm your savior!" Your life is mine, what do I want to do, do I have to ask for your consent? ”

Du Pingfei was frightened by her fierce appearance, and finally panicked, and asked repeatedly, "What are you going to do?" Now that the enemy is present, can you tell the difference? What's the matter, can't wait until it's completely out of danger to settle accounts? ”

Unexpectedly, Xie Fenghua sneered on the spot as if he had heard some big joke, "It turns out that you also know what the situation is now!" When you pulled out the hairpin just now and wanted to do it to me, why couldn't you remember? Mother, don't you know that killing people also depends on the shadow? You're a good way to hide on my back and do such a sinister thing......"

She used to smile at people, but when she was really angry, the awe-inspiring momentum was the most terrifying.

Du Pingfei's face turned a little paler, no matter how shameless she was, under such a sharp and insightful light, she was a little at a loss, and she could only look away when she heard the words, and she didn't dare to say anything against her.

"What? Is there nothing to say? Xie Fenghua sneered, "I don't say it, it doesn't mean I don't know." During these days, what you instructed Xiao Yao to do, do you really think I don't know? You ask yourself, whether it is the Yunzhou rescue or the hidden arrow behind this time, has your murderous intent ever stopped? ”

She laughed angrily, and let go of Du Pingfei's collar, Du Pingfei was a little unable to react, and his legs and feet were weak, and he almost fell to the ground.

The steadiness of her feet touching the ground made her wandering mind finally gather back, she looked up in a daze, but saw Xie Fenghua glaring at her viciously, gritted her teeth and said, "I don't dare to be interested in your reasons now." Since you are so capable, then please forgive me for not accompanying you. ”

With that, she turned around and strode away.

Du Pingfei was in a hurry, and hurriedly stopped her, "You stop!" You just left, not afraid that this palace will come to you to settle accounts? ”

"Afraid! I'm scared to death! Xie Fenghua didn't look back and continued to walk forward, "But I'm more afraid of being stabbed!" I saved a white-eyed wolf, and I'm ashamed to say it. ”

There was no intention of stopping.

Du Pingfei hurriedly rushed to her and stretched out his arm to block her way.

If it had been in the past, she would never have done such a dishonorable thing. But the current situation is pressing, and Xie Er is not a person who can be coaxed at will, so she can't care about so many so-called images, and hurriedly said: "Don't you want to know, why did this palace kill you?" Just left, don't you want to hear it? ”

Xie Fenghua was stunned and stopped for a while.

But I heard her say: "You are very capable, if you want to threaten this palace, it is also a simple thing." But since your surname is Xie, you should also know that the various entanglements between this palace and your sister cannot be explained clearly in a few words. ”

"Just because of my sister?" Xie Fenghua suddenly felt inexplicable, "It's just a dead man, as for holding on to it like this?" ”

She said it subconsciously, and when she reacted, she realized that something was wrong.

Just now, it seems that you scolded yourself into it?

But she was not one of those squirming, so she continued: "I have always hated women who do not distinguish between right and wrong! If you continue to make trouble, don't blame me for being merciless. ”

That's a warning!

There is a lot about the past in her previous life, and she doesn't really want to mention it. If Du Pingfei can put it down, it is naturally the best; If she can't, she must also take this opportunity to make a statement.

In the past, after she died, she had already severed her relationship with the emperor and queen.

Now, she is grateful for who she is and what she is now, and she won't allow anyone to question and destroy it again and again.

Zhao Pei can't, and Du Pingfei can't!

When Du Pingfei heard her words, a touch of embarrassment immediately appeared on his face.

From childhood to adulthood, she has been a star-studded existence. Even when he was at his most depressed, when he was alone in the face of Concubine Tang Xian, he had never been warned so face-to-face.

For a while, the face was white and red for a while, and his lips moved, and he didn't hold back a word for a long time.

In the silence, footsteps rushed to this side.

The two of them looked at each other, and they both saw the next direction from each other's eyes - personal grievances were behind, and they faced the enemy together.

Xie Fenghua pressed Du Pingfei's shoulders and motioned for her to squat down and hide next to the half-human-tall bushes for the time being. And she also bent her waist, followed the sound and looked ahead, her hand already on the soft sword at her waist.

Immediately afterwards, he heard a rapid wheezing sound, raised his eyes, but saw Qi Lei running over with a sword, and there were several cuts on his body, a little down, and with a cold and murderous aura, people dare not underestimate it.

Xie Fenghua noticed that there was no killer behind him, and thought that he had already gotten rid of those people, so he immediately gave Du Pingfei a look, and then shouted at Qi Lei.

When Qi Lei saw them, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and said hurriedly: "Didn't you come out a long time ago?" ”

Thinking of the-for-tat just now, a trace of embarrassment crossed Xie Fenghua's face.

As a commander, he actually gave up his business at a critical moment for the sake of personal grudges, which is really not a nice thing to say.

Yes, she glared at Du Pingfei, and asked without answering, "Your people over there have been disposed of?" ”

Qi Lei was a little curious about their abnormality, but he didn't ask much, but said, "Deal with it for the time being." But I suspect they have other helpers. Commander Xie, where do you go next? ”

In his opinion, if he can't go down the mountain, he won't be able to rush back to Tianjing in time.

But this mountain forest, he is not very familiar with it, and he has no direction for a while.

"That's going to ask the queen." Xie Fenghua squinted at Du Pingfei and said coolly.

Du Pingfei was annoyed by her yin and yang weirdness, but thinking of the situation at the moment, he gritted his teeth and endured it, and said cautiously: "This palace knows the way." Although you can't go down the mountain, you can still get out of this mountain forest. ”

"So what are you waiting for? Without further ado, let's go! Qi Lei put his sword into the sheath and said.

Du Pingfei hurriedly led the way.

The group of three walked forward quickly. As Qi Lei said, those killers really still have support, and the other party's purpose is also very clear, as soon as he sees Du Pingfei, he rushes forward desperately, and he has the posture of leaving her here.

However, Xie Fenghua and Qi Lei are not vegetarians, one was a generalissimo who won a hundred battles in his previous life, and a chivalrous man who used to walk the rivers and lakes through the ups and downs, not only is he outstanding, but he is also extremely experienced in dealing with the enemy.

In such a stalemate, Xie Fenghua and the others have gradually pulled out a battle line, built with flesh and blood, corpses are lying around, and blood stains the entire mountain path.

By the time the three of them finally reached the pontoon, the killers had all died by the sword, and the night wind blew, and the rich and pungent smell of blood hit the nostrils, which made people sick.

Xie Fenghua felt that he had returned to the years of those bloody battles, and swished back the soft sword around his waist and walked towards the pontoon bridge not far away.

It was a bridge suspended between the clouds, and under the bridge was a bottomless abyss swallowed by darkness, and a stone was thrown down, and no echo could be heard.

It was already the second half of the night, and the mountain wind had become a little stronger, blowing the bridge slightly shaking, and the hearts of the people were frightened.

Xie Fenghua stood at the head of the bridge, tentatively shook the thick rope that was bound, and grinned at Qi Lei: "Don't worry! It's pretty sturdy! It is estimated that the cutting will continue for a while. ”

Qi Lei's face changed, and he didn't speak.

Du Pingfei stepped forward, took a deep breath, and asked, "It is bound to not be delayed here for too long." We need to get off as soon as possible. What do you think should be done? ”

"You can't all go over." Xie Fenghua said, her expression was calm in the dark night, and she had obviously considered all the stakes clearly, "This bridge is not safe either, if you just walk to the middle and are cut off, then the three of us will die." Someone has to stay and guard the bridgehead! ”

After looking at the other two, she said succinctly: "I'll stay!" You go first! ”

"Nope." Du Pingfei looked at her, his brows furrowed, "You go with this palace." ”

As the weakest of the three, and the key protection object of the other two, she naturally has to cross the bridge first! However, she would count Xie Fenghua as well, which was unexpected by the other two.

Xie Fenghua looked at her with some surprise, "Why?" ”

"You stay here, and then?" Du Pingfei looked at her quietly, and the look in his eyes was incomprehensible.

Xie Fenghua glanced at the expressionless Qi Lei, hooked his lips and smiled: "Niangniang, I can understand that you care about me?" ”

"Thinking too much, Hongu just doesn't want to die." Du Pingfei ignored her impropriety and explained, "It is very likely that the other party already knows our plan, so there will be additional personnel on both sides of the bridge to block it." And the enemy on this side of the bridgehead came from Putuo Temple, and we have cleaned up the road along the road, the number of people will not be too much, but the opposite bridgehead, the danger is unknown, if you don't go over to clean it up first, none of us can escape. ”

"What a cold-blooded and ruthless woman," Xie Fenghua scolded with a smile, but did not answer, but asked Qi Lei, "Qi Lei, what do you say?" ”

Qi Lei had been listening quietly to their conversation from beginning to end, and at this moment, she was named, her eyes purred, and she looked at the long pontoon bridge, and quickly made up her mind.

I only listened to him: "Humble duty obeys the arrangement." ”

Du Pingfei's eyes flashed, and he nodded: "In this case, then you will stay here." Hongu estimates that those killers will catch up later, and what you have to do is to hold them back as much as possible! If you can, kill them all before the bridge. ”

Xie Fenghua hesitated, "What if you can't kill them all?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she happened to bump into Du Pingfei's eyes, and saw the extremely deep heterochromatic color hidden in the depths of her eyes, and a strange feeling crossed her heart.

This feeling came suddenly and inexplicably, she wanted to pursue the taste again, but she heard Du Pingfei say in a deep voice: "If you can't kill it, then find a chance to get out." ”

She took two steps forward, pointed to the left side of the bridge, and said to Qi Lei: "There is a secret passage here, it really can't work, you can use the secret passage to go!" ”

Qi Lei looked at it and hurriedly responded, "Follow the teachings of the queen's mother, and remember your humble duties!" ”

Du Pingfei nodded, looked at Xie Fenghua and said, "Let's go first!" It's late and you're in trouble! ”

With that, she took the first step and walked onto the pontoon.

Xie Fenghua patted Qi Lei's shoulder and followed.

Overhead, the crescent moon hangs high, and a bridge of cold moonlight.

The wind blew from the abyss under the bridge, and the further it went to the middle, the stronger the wind became, shaking the whole bridge from side to side.

Xie Fenghua staggered Du Pingfei by half a step and walked forward cautiously. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the nervous face of the person beside him, his heart moved, and he said in a low voice: "Why did you say that just now?" ”

"What?"

Du Pingfei focused all his attention on the pontoon bridge under his feet, he was already a little dizzy, and when she asked like this, his thoughts were suddenly pulled over, and he didn't care to pay attention to the road under his feet.

Xie Fenghua originally wanted to distract her so that she could walk faster, and he didn't expect her to answer herself.

But he didn't want to, Du Pingfei thought about it, and actually answered her seriously, "Bengong thought about it just now, and the two sisters of the Xie family who can be called opponents are the only ones." And your sister is a short-lived ghost, if even you die, how lonely the rest of your life will be! It's better to fight slowly like this, which is also a joy of life. ”

Xie Fenghua wanted to correct her, she was not a short-lived ghost, but after listening to the whole sentence, she suddenly thought of something, and she had to look back.

"Don't look back." Du Pingfei seemed to guess her reaction, stopped her at the first time, and said with a smile, "When you turn around at this time, don't you tell others that you escaped from the battle, leaving your subordinates to face the danger alone?" The thought that Marshal Xie, who is admired by all the people, has a sister who escaped from the battle, is really extremely relieving! ”

"You madman!" Xie Fenghua stared at her deadly and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.

She finally knew where the strange feeling just now came from, and hurriedly asked, "The so-called killer on the opposite side of the bridge was also what you said casually?" The secret passage of escape......"

"The escape passage is real, and the killer on the other side is fake." Du Pingfei smiled coldly and said, "Don't talk to this palace in such a questioning tone." You should be glad that this palace regards your life as your life, otherwise you ......"

"How else?" Xie Fenghua sneered, but he didn't tear her down, and was about to turn around, but her arm was pulled by her hard, and when she raised her eyes, she saw her calm face, and said angrily, "Xie Er!" If you want to die, this palace will not stop you! But now that you've come here, don't try to go back again. If it involves the main palace, it is not as simple as dying a person. ”

Xie Fenghua was about to say something, but he saw that Qi Lei's side suddenly appeared with a sword light and a sword shadow, and he was actually chased.

"Let's go! Let's get there, so he can escape to that secret passage quickly. Du Pingfei didn't hesitate anymore, grabbed her, and walked forward.

Xie Fenghua knew that it was too late to run back at this time, so he could only break free from her hand and move forward without looking back.

At this time, the pontoon suddenly shook violently, Xie Fenghua looked back as he walked, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he said in shock: "Qi Lei escaped!" Fast! Come on! ”
