Chapter 53: The Temptation of Lingji

Gongzi Xiong Jian walked halfway and found that there were two points of light on the roof in the distance, one green and one red, moving rapidly, sometimes flying up and down, sometimes fighting back and forth, sometimes intersecting together and immediately separating, and for a while he rushed up to the sky, disappeared into the night sky, and appeared next to the bright moon in a blink of an eye, with the stars.

Gongzi Xiong Jianzheng could see that the two points of light disappeared and suddenly appeared more than ten feet away from him, accompanied by the sound of fighting. Gongzi Xiong Jian hurriedly hid behind a low wall, and looked intently, it turned out that the two points of light were two people. If you look closely, the red point of light is actually Lingji, she really sneaked into the city, and the blue spot is Zhan Wuxian. The two of them are fighting each other. Seeing the situation, Zhan Wuxian has no intention of fighting, and has always wanted to get rid of Lingji's entanglement, but Lingji seems to be deliberately pestering Zhan Wuxian to prevent him from leaving. Zhan Wuxian's offensive is sharp and continuous, and she wants to force Ling Ji back as soon as possible, but Ling Ji only defends and does not attack, as long as Zhan Wuxian has a little sign of retreating, she turns defense into offense, and she is embarrassed by Zhan Wuxian everywhere.

The two fought for a hundred and ten rounds, and Zhan Wuxian attacked a few more moves in a row, and seeing that the situation had not changed as before, he turned his sword sideways, withdrew from the circle, and looked at Lingji angrily. On the other side, Lingji also turned sideways to collect the recruitment, her eyes were slightly raised, and she looked at Zhan Wuxian with a smile, and several divine fires floated in front of her, reflecting Lingji's face like a peach blossom.

"Thank you for your mercy and companionship. It's been a long time since I've had this pleasure. Lingji teased, "You see I'm sweating." ”

"Why are you against me at every turn?" Zhan Wuxian said angrily: "I see that you are a woman who can't bear to be a killer, if you entangle with me again, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." ”

"Why are you so ruthless, aren't you in a hurry to save Xiong Qi's disease? Let's be honest with you, Xiong Qiji will be fine. ”

"Why are you so sure?"

"Aren't you from Chu of course you don't know, those wooden heads on the Eagle Terrace are doomed to failure."

"Why are you holding me back when you already know the result?"

"Hehe......" Ling Ji Jiao laughed: "Don't people want to try your martial arts, you can't see it, I have always treated you as a ......" Ling Ji laughed again: "Hehe, although people are stupid, their martial arts are quite powerful." Your escape technique is so handsome, if it weren't for my Divine Fire Shadow Piercing Technique, I really wouldn't be able to catch up with you. ”

"In this case, we have also dealt with each other, you go back to your slender waist palace, and I will go back to my thatched house, and from then on our well water will not interfere with river water." Zhan Wuxian turned around and was about to leave.

"Don't go yet, you haven't answered my question yet."

"What's the problem?"

"Am I beautiful?"

Zhan Wuxian turned to look at the woman in front of him, with a graceful figure, dressed in red, charming and charming, but still showing a trace of handsomeness. I had a thousand tricks with myself just now, my forehead was slightly sweaty, my cheeks were flushed, my eyes were slightly charming, and I looked at it carefully, and I had another charm, I was a complete beauty, and I was fascinated, if he wasn't Lingji.

Zhan Wuxian didn't answer, slowly turned around and walked back.

"Don't you want to save the people of the city?"

This sentence is like a thousand catties of suction, and Zhan Wuxian, who hadn't walked a few steps, stopped: "What did you say?" ”

"I'll only say anything that comes out of my mouth once, except for that one. Am I beautiful? ”

Zhan Wuxian's heart was surging at this time, and he had mixed tastes. Lingji's sentence "Am I beautiful" is obviously teasing herself, if she doesn't answer, she will lose a chance to save the people of the city. Zhan Wuxian thought about it again, in the final analysis, this matter was for the sake of those so-called decency, self-confessed narrow ways, these are just some unrealistic vanities, compared to the lives of the people in the city, and Ling Ji .......

"How do I know you're not lying to me?" Zhan Wu asked.

"Believe it or not, you'll find out in three days."

"What are you going me to do to save the people of the city?"

"Am I beautiful?"

"To be honest, you're really beautiful, and even more beautiful if you weren't Lingji."

"Hehe, I can really talk, whether it's true or not, I like it."

"It's up to you to say, how can you save the people of the city?"

"Okay, come here, stay close to me, I'll tell you."

Zhan Wuxian walked over, but still kept a certain distance from Lingji.

"You say."

"I didn't expect that Zhan Wuxian would not be calm at the time." Lingji still chuckled and said: "I want you to stay and fly with me, we can enjoy the rivers and lakes together, as long as you agree, I have a way to make Gongzi withdraw from the enemy and retreat, and no longer besiege Caicheng......"

"Don't think about it." Zhan Wuxian interrupted Lingji's words: "Let me abandon my wife, even if I die, you can't think of it." ”

"Why be in such a hurry, who made you abandon your wife? Think about it again. ”

"Don't think about it, I won't worry about you today, if you force each other again next time, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless."

"Don't talk so ruthlessly, don't you want to save the lives of the whole city?"

"You ......" Zhan Wuxian thought for a moment and then said: "Cai Cheng has Divine Fire Soldiers, Soul Gold Soldiers, Soul Wood Soldiers, and many martial arts heroes in the world, are you still afraid of the corpse beast pawns of Gongzi's defeat?" ”

"Hmph" Ling Ji smiled: "Those so-called martial arts heroes each have their own purposes, but they are just a plate of loose sand, as for the Divine Fire Soldier, the Soul Warrior, and the Soul Wood Pawn, although it is powerful, but you have also seen the ability to defeat the enemy, he has an infinite cycle of lifeforms, no matter how many times you kill him, he can be resurrected." As long as the enemy is there, the corpse beast pawns will not be killed, and there will be more and more, and they will become stronger and stronger. As for the Jin Shi and the Soul Wood Pawn, as long as the king puts pressure on the Qin and Qi countries, and allows the soldiers of Bashu to attack the Qin State in the west, and the king waves his troops to the east to suppress the Qi State, the Jin Jin Shi and the Soul Wood Pawn will automatically be recalled. At that time, there will only be divine fire soldiers, and it will be difficult to support them alone, and the city will be broken between the hands. ”

Zhan Wuxian stood there and listened quietly, although Ling Ji's words were harsh, but every sentence was the truth, if what Ling Ji said really happened, Cai Cheng would definitely not be protected. Today, the countries of the Central Plains, fighting each other, attacking each other, will do anything for their own interests, Caicheng is a small land, under the pressure of the powerful Chu State, it is really wishful thinking to want other countries to save it.

"Who would believe what you say is true?"

"If you don't believe it, just try." Ling Ji smiled: "I'll tell you again, if you want to keep Cai Cheng, you can only break the corpse beast pawn first, and if you want to destroy the corpse beast pawn, you can only stop the enemy, and the way to stop the enemy is only known to me." Zhan Wuxian, think about it, I will give you three days, and in three days, the army of Gongzi will regroup, and then the survival of Cai Cheng will depend on your words. After Lingji finished speaking, Chao Zhan smiled charmingly and disappeared into the night sky.

Zhan Wuxian stood motionless, letting the night wind whisk up gusts of flying sand and lap on him, but he was unconscious. Zhan Wuxian's mind was blank, and his ears were noisy and buzzing, as if the heavens and the earth were spinning. Tonight was the first time he was at a loss, as if he had lost himself and his judgment. Not far away, Gongzi Xiong Jian saw everything and secretly ran back to Cai Gong's Mansion, and Zhan Wuxian didn't notice it.

"Shirt!" It was Mo Wuya's voice.

Zhan Wuxian glanced back at Mo Wuya, and immediately moved away, he didn't know how to face his wife at this moment. In Zhan Wuxian's heart, he loved Mo Wuya deeply, but what Lingji told him just now has been haunting his mind: he must make a choice within three days.

"Something happened, your face is not very good." Mo Wuya said to Zhan Wuxian as usual.

"Lingji is gone."

"I see it."

"Did you hear what she said?" Zhan Wuxian was a little worried.

"No, I only saw her figure flying out of the city."

"It's okay, let's go back too."

"Don't go to Duke Cai's Mansion anymore? When I came over, I saw a lot of people rushing to Cai Gongfu, and many people died in Cai Gongfu. ”

"I already know, Cai Gong will be fine. Those people are masters, and I don't need to go again when they go. ”

"What you say makes sense, so why go with the flow. Let's go back. ”

When the two returned to their residence, Zhan Chi was already asleep, but the little white ape was still energetic and did not feel sleepy at all, running up and down outside the door of Zhan Chi's room, and from time to time he practiced the thousand leaps that Mo Wuya taught him. The little white ape saw Zhan Wuxian and Mo Wuya coming back, and practiced more energetically, jumped to the top of a mulberry tree, and then turned over a chic somersault, and gently landed in front of Zhan Wuxian and Mo Wuya, quietly. Zhan Wuxian and Mo Wuya looked at each other and smiled, and the two sighed that the little white ape's kung fu progress was so rapid that it was completely beyond the reach of ordinary humans.

Zhan Wuxian stroked the top of the little white ape's head, thinking of the two snow-capped mountain giant apes, although they were not humans, the feelings of the two apes were a hundred times better than humans. Zhan Wuxian sighed inexplicably: "People are as good as apes, and they don't have those endless troubles." ”

"Shirt, what's wrong tonight, the Zhan Wuxian I know isn't as sentimental as it is now."

"Seeing that the little white ape suddenly remembered the ape brother and sister-in-law, they live and die together, isn't this a beautiful thing."

"Then let's go to the Big Snow Mountain and take the little white ape to see how his hometown is."

"I don't want to, but Caicheng's soldiers are pressing, and I promised Xiong Qiji to help him, how to get away."

Mo Wuya didn't speak, and pulled the little white ape towards the room. After walking a few steps, the little white ape turned around, took Zhan Wuxian's hand with the other hand, and walked in together.

Zhan Wuxian came to Zhan Chi's bed, looking at his son's pink face, his chubby little hands rubbed his soft nose back and forth from time to time, he was so cute. In this warm room, Zhan Wuxian stretched his brows sadly, with a smile on his face, leaving all his worries behind, he looked back at his wife Mo Wuya, who was coaxing the little white ape to sleep with his back to him, that beautiful back has never changed, this is the only person he loves in his life, how can he be willing to abandon her. Zhan Wuxian sighed, if there was no war, how good would it be, he could smile with his lover, without any worries, and when he was tired, he could build a house next to the mountain stream and play freely with his children. But the reality is so cruel, and the difference from the ideal is so huge, no matter how high your martial arts are, you can't do whatever you want, regardless of everything.

Living in the world, sometimes I really want to yell: his grandmother, why care about all that mess. The world is so big, I can't live more comfortably? But the reality is so cruel, the people in the city are also lives, and when the corpse beasts attack the city, they are so helpless. Whenever you see their eyes, do you really not feel it? People still can't deceive themselves and others, but they can't deceive their own hearts.

"What a daze, come and sleep." Mo Wuya had already laid out the futon.

Lying on the bed, Zhan Wuxian couldn't say a word, unlike usually, when he saw Mo Wuya, he had endless words, talking about how he dealt with Gongzi and defeating the enemy, and what methods he came up with to repel the corpse beast pawn. But tonight, although he had a belly of words, he didn't know how to tell Mo Wuya.

Zhan Wuxian looked out the window, the night sky was dark, there was no starlight, and he couldn't find the direction. Quiet, dead silence. Since coming to Caicheng, he has never been so quiet as tonight, and Zhan Wuxian has never been so helpless.

I don't know how long it took, Zhan Wuxian gradually figured out that no matter how difficult it was, he had to be with her, he wanted to protect her, even if he lost his life, he felt that he should be loyal to his wife, and he had to tell her what Lingji said truthfully, so that he wouldn't suffer. Thinking of this, Zhan Wuxian turned sideways, wanting to tell Mo Wuya the truth. When I turned around, I saw that my wife was already asleep. Zhan Wuxian's mouth closed again, and he would wait until tomorrow to tell his wife. Zhan Wuxian closed his eyes, he didn't notice that Mo Wuya left a teardrop, hanging on his cheek.
