Chapter 96: Entering the Game is Life and Death!
The frantic breathing was entangled, Su Li was starved of oxygen, and her brain was still a little dazed, she didn't expect Lu Ji to ask her this question.
She never asked for anything from Lu Ji, the burden on his shoulders was too heavy, whether it was emotional or otherwise.
She helped him take care of Su Zhan, and did what she could to help him do what she could to reduce the burden on him, she thought that this was enough, just like before Yue Yan asked her, she didn't think about having something to do with Lu Ji.
"I ...... Wouldn't it be nice to share a little bit for you? ”
Su Li asked in a low voice, her cheeks hot.
She told Chu Huai'an that she had long been soaked in dust, but in fact, she had no experience in this area at all.
Although Lu Ji was not as skilled as Chu Huai'an, the attack was so fierce that people couldn't parry it at all, her breathing was urgent, and her eyes were dodging and she didn't dare to look at Lu Ji.
It's so shy that it's ticklish.
Lu Ji hugged her tightly, then rested his head on her neck and laughed lowly: "Ah Li, this is not a li." ”
Why not?
I didn't want to share it for others, I just wanted to do it for you, isn't that what is it?
Su Li wanted to refute, but before she could speak, she heard Lu Ji say softly: "If you like someone, in addition to worrying about him in everything, you will also want to get the same kind of love from him, if he doesn't give it to you, you will be angry, you will be sad and sad, you know?" ”
"I ...... I can wait for you to give it to me. ”
Su Li muttered, Lu Ji looked at her slightly, his eyes were gloomy and distant: "What if I don't give it to you all the time?" ”
Never give.
This assumption hurts somewhat.
Su Li's heart was sore and swollen, a little sad and a little stunned, she vaguely realized that Lu Ji was actually rejecting her by saying so much.
He didn't want her to be his general's wife.
"I'm not greedy, I can be satisfied if you give me a little bit." Su Li still didn't give up, and tried hard to fight for herself, Lu Ji was helpless by her earnest gaze, pressed her head into her arms and sighed: "Fool! ”
Su Li wanted to say that she was not stupid at all, but this person's chest was too warm and safe, which made her eyes hot, and her throat seemed to be stuffed with cotton.
Lu Ji rode back to the city with Su Li and sent her back to the county lord's mansion, and when he was about to ride his horse away, Su Li stopped him.
"General!"
Lu Ji took the reins of the horse and spun around in place, and then lightly hit Su Li's head with a horsewhip: "Think about tonight's matter carefully, and then explain to me the following mistakes after thinking clearly, and make my problem lightly!" ”
Su Li: "......"
At first, I was thin and you were right, but then it seems that you also took the initiative, right? So what if it never happened?
Su Li secretly slandered, but she didn't argue with Lu Ji about this.
"The day after tomorrow, will the general win?"
"Naturally!"
Lu Ji replied categorically, Su Li nodded, and then spoke again: "Can I ask one last question?" ”
"Say."
"Did General Fang have the urge to kiss me?"
“……”
She was answered by a loud whip, and Lu Ji galloped away.
Su Li stood in place and thought about it seriously, but Lu Ji was holding her horizontally just now, and she really didn't notice if he had any other physical changes.
As for that kiss......
It's not the same as what Su Li encountered before.
Su Li was out of breath, thinking, and even heartbeat for it, but there was no more charm in her mind.
She still couldn't imagine what it would be like when she was honest with Lu Ji.
Because I don't yearn for bedmanship, don't you like it?
The three days passed quickly, and on the day of the life and death situation, the civil and military officials and the envoys entered the palace early.
The school field is wide, Chu Lingzhao asked people to fence the school field with a high iron fence, leaving only one entrance, and after entering, it is only about life and death, and there is no way out.
Chu Lingzhao ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to specially customize the clothes on behalf of Yuan Zhao for them, a unified ink-colored long shirt, and the clothes were embroidered with silver silk with vivid birds of prey, most of which were Rui beasts in mythological stories, and they were majestic when worn on their bodies.
The clothes are all men's, Su Li tied her hair with a wooden hairpin, and she was dressed the same as them, looking more trim and straight than men.
Chu Huai'an's spirit was much better than the previous two days, and while others were not paying attention, he asked Zhao Hanzhuo and Gu Yuanfeng to come over to block the sight of others, and stuffed a small bronze mirror into Lu Ji's arms.
"This ......"
Lu Ji wanted to refuse, but was punched in the chest by Chu Huai'an: "Shut up!" Don't tell Lao Tzu anything above board, no one said that you can't use defensive tools in the life and death situation, this heart guard is specially made by Lao Tzu to find a blacksmith, and it can't be used best! Let those barbarians know how powerful our Yuanzhao Town General is! ”
“……”
Lu Ji pursed his lips and didn't speak, in his opinion, this was cheating, Chu Huaian rolled his eyes angrily: "They are cunning, you know they won't play any tricks?" Wear it honestly, if you die, we all have to die with you! ”
As he spoke, Chu Huai'an pulled Su Li over, pointed to Su Li's face and asked, "You are dead, the second one is her, do you think she can hold up a few knives with her current state of not being able to carry it on her shoulders and her hands to carry it?" ”
I can't hold it with a knife.
Lu Ji thought in his heart, lowered his eyes and did not refute, nor did he take out the heart goggles.
Chu Huai'an let go of Su Li, took the polished halberd from the palace people and handed it to Lu Ji: "Hu people are cunning, how many people have killed me over the years, today this villain Ben Hou has done it, it has nothing to do with you, in the future, the world will laugh at it, Ben Hou will also bear it, it can't hurt your brightness!" ”
"The grass people don't mean this, when it is extraordinary, they should do extraordinary things."
Lu Ji said calmly, as if he had accepted such a approach, Chu Huai'an couldn't help muttering: "I'll go, I knew that you were so easy to be persuaded, Lao Tzu should have let them smear poison on it, and ensure that one stab is accurate!" ”
“……”
Zhao Hanzhuo and Gu Yuanfeng twitched the corners of their eyes at the same time, expressing their deep shock at Chu Huai'an's simple and rude style.
Lu Ji smiled and didn't speak, the horn sounded, and then there was a dull and powerful drumming sound.
Following the prestige, Ku Tartar and Chu Lingzhao sat on the middle viewing platform together, surrounded by hundreds of civil and military officials and other members of the envoy group.
"After a stick of incense, the life and death bureau opens, and those who enter the game have a life and death, and there must be no difference! Participants are invited to play and hang up their name tags! ”
The palace people announced in a high-pitched voice, and immediately someone brought incense and wooden signs, which were fine sandalwood and engraved with the names of the people who should fight.
The palace people were hung in a row, and a brazier was placed in the open space in the middle, and once someone died, the wooden plaque would be thrown into the brazier and burned.
The wooden sign of Lu Ji is hung at the front, corresponding to the Hu warrior Chi Ze.
The weather was already a little cold, but these five Hu warriors were all shirtless, holding a big knife in their hands, and two bright scimitars pinned to them, full of wildness.
Chu Huai'an glanced at it, and rushed to the palace man who was waiting on the side: "Why do they have two more knives on their waists?" Go get a soft sword for you! ”
"Yes!"
The palace people hurriedly ran away, and after a while, they came over with a bright soft sword.
Chu Huai'an didn't answer, and hit Su Li with his elbow: "There is the county lord of Lao to pin the general!" We're not taking advantage of others! ”
“……”
Su Li stepped forward with a soft sword.
This soft sword is specially made for the secret guards in the palace, it is extremely capricious, usually pinned to the waist, easy to hide and disguise, and it is also very easy to use at critical moments.
Knowing that Chu Huai'an was also out of kindness, Lu Ji did not refuse, and let Su Li help him pin the soft sword.
As soon as it was done, the palace people struck the gong, and when it rang, the crisp and pleasant sound of the bell came slowly.
Hu Wanyan put on the clothes of the Hu people again, followed by two tall Hu people's maids, one maid carrying two jars of wine, and the other maid carrying a tray, on which were five large bowls.
Zhuangxing wine is also a farewell wine.
Before going to the battlefield, the officers and soldiers of the army will also drink.
Hu Wanyan personally poured wine for the five warriors and communicated with them in Hu language, others couldn't understand what Hu Wanyan said, but they could see that the eyes of these warriors lit up, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
Chu Huai'an glanced at it, and casually grabbed a palace person and asked, "Have you checked the group of people in the Tai Hospital about those wines?" Questions? Will it make people feel no pain after drinking? ”
The palace people were taken aback by Chu Huai'an, and hurriedly replied: "Master Hou, it's all ...... All checked, no problem! ”
"No problem? So why are they the only ones who have wine, and we don't? ”
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty said that drinking and making a mistake should wait for you to triumph...... Drink the celebratory wine again. The palace people were so frightened that they were about to cry, but Zhao Hanzhuo rescued him: "Master Hou, it's about to start." ”
When the words fell, another heavy drum sounded.
Su Wanyan and the two maids walked to the middle of the field and knelt down, as if dancing and some kind of sacrifice, and after a while, they took out the bright dagger from their bosoms and slashed at the snow-white slender wrist.
The hands of the three of them clasped together, and the red blood passed into the wine jar.
With blood as a sacrifice, may the warriors of our clan be invincible!
This is a common means of sacrifice for the Hu people.
Hu Wanyan poured a bowl of wine with the wine jar, and the first Hu warrior was just about to drink it, when Chu Huai'an said abruptly: "Slow!" ”
He walked over and sniffed the wine, only to smell the sweet aroma of wine and the slightest hint of sweet blood.
"Although today's game is a life and death game, it will not affect the good-neighborliness and friendship between the two countries, and Ben Hou proposes that we drink with all the warriors to show the harmony between the two countries!"
Everyone: "......"
I'm about to fight to the death, and I'm going to drink a glass of wine and touch glasses in a friendly way, Master Hou, your heart is not ordinary!
Generally, this kind of sacrificial wine is not allowed to be contaminated by outsiders, but Chu Huai'an's identity is here, he said that he wanted to drink it, and others had no reason to stop him.
Hu Wanyan didn't speak, the two maids subconsciously glanced at Hu Tartar, and Chu Huai'an grinned: "What?" Isn't there a problem with this wine, you can drink it, we can't drink it? ”
Chu Huai'an's voice was not loud or small, because everyone held their breath and did not speak, so the people in the stands heard his words clearly.
Chu Lingzhao lifted his eyes to look at Ku Tatar, with a kind face: "This younger brother of mine is also a drunkard on weekdays, which makes Wang Shangjian smile." ”
Seeing the smile, the implication is that my younger brother loves to drink, don't you give him a drink?
Suddenly Tartar squinted at Chu Huai'an, and then laughed loudly: "Lord Hou is willing to drink with the warriors of this king, it is excellent!" ”
When the words fell, the palace people immediately brought five more big bowls, and Su Wanyan helped them fill them in turn.
"I wish you all a victorious start!"
Su Wanyan said a word of wish in Yuanzhao Chinese.
The five warriors of the Hu people stood in a circle, touched the bowl, raised their heads and drank it all, and then threw the bowl to the ground and smashed it to pieces.
Chu Huai'an touched Lu Ji with the bowl, and only said three words: "Don't die." ”
After speaking, he took the bowl and touched Su Li, Zhao Hanzhuo, and Gu Yuanfeng in turn: "If you are unfortunate enough to be the soul of Hu Ren's knife today, you will meet it on the road to Huangquan, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame General Lu for being famous!" ”
“……”
After speaking, Chu Huaian first raised his head and drank it, and the others looked left and right and drank it.
The Hu people like spirits, the entrance is like a knife to seal the throat and break the intestines, after drinking, it will roll out of the stomach and force sweating, which is very warm.
Zhao Hanzhuo and Gu Yuanfeng couldn't drink, and after drinking a bowl, the two of them immediately got on their heads and blushed.
“…… I'll go! Chu Huai'an's eyes widened, and he looked back at Lu Ji when he remembered something: "Are you done drinking?" ”
That night, Lu Ji poured two mouthfuls, and after drinking the wine, the picture of humming with Su Li came to mind, and Chu Huai'an's temples jumped suddenly.
Why does this man drink when he can't drink?
Seeing what he was thinking, Lu Ji said in a deep voice: "It's just a bowl, it's okay." ”
After saying that, he smashed the wine bowl.
Boom!
The third drum sounded, the horn sounded again, and the iron door at the entrance of the school grounds was pushed open, making a piercing creaking sound.
"First game, start!"
The palace people shouted loudly, knocked on the gong, and Lu Ji walked into the competition area with the halberd and Chi Ze one after the other, and the iron door was slammed shut behind it.
Su Li and Chu Huai'an walked to the waiting area together to watch the competition.
As soon as he sat down, the sonorous sound of cold soldiers meeting each other sounded, and Lu Ji and Chi Ze were already entangled together.
Akasawa is big, just drank wine, fine beads of sweat have appeared on his back, refracting fine light, after the weapons are connected, Akazawa's muscles bulge, for example, it is twice as big, and it is like a hill in front of Lu Ji.
"Ahh
Akasawa roared, bounced Lu Halberd away, Lu Halberd retreated, the black satin thick-soled boot rubbed on the ground, and retreated more than ten meters away before stopping, standing firmly, Akasawa attacked with a long knife.
Zheng!
This time he switched to the halberd block, he put the halberd across his head, caught the knife that Akasawa swung, but failed to bounce Akasawa away like just now, Akasawa saw him push back, until he retreated to the iron fence in the field.
"Good!"
The Hu warriors who watched the battle burst into cheers, thinking that they had won a good start.
Lu Ji was trapped between Chi Ze and the iron fence and couldn't move, his back was strangled by the iron fence and hurt, Chi Ze drank wine, became excited, his eyes widened, showed a cruel smile, and said something in a low voice.
Lu Ji understood that sentence, and he said: Go and die!
The response was a whistling iron fist, Lu Ji bowed his head very quickly, and the punch smashed on the iron bar behind Lu Ji, the iron bar was smashed and twisted and deformed, Lu Ji dodged out from under Chi Ze's armpit, raised his foot and kicked the long halberd away, and stepped on Chi Ze's shoulder with force, and with the help of a somersault, he caught the long halberd and landed firmly behind Chi Ze.
At the same time, his eyes lit up, and the halberd approached Akazawa's back like the wind.
Akasawa turned around quickly, tilted his head slightly, the halberd rubbed his head and stabbed in the air, Lu Halberd stabbed the halberd into the gap of the iron fence, and then pressed it forward, using the halberd body to press Chize's neck to the iron fence, Akasawa raised his hand to block, the situation turned sharply, and he fell down.
"Good!" Chu Huai'an jumped up from his seat at once, and shouted without any image: "Lu Ji! Kill him! Kill him for you! ”
Ministers: "......"
Master Hou, can you be a little more reserved?
Lu Ji continued to exert force, Chi Ze's hand was bent by the pressure, and he gradually lost his strength, and his neck also felt strong pressure.
If he really loses his strength, he will be strangled to death like this.
"Ahh
Akasawa used all his strength to push away a little, stuck the long knife in, leaving a little space to free his neck, Lu Ji suddenly retracted his strength, and quickly approached Akasawa along the halberd body, and when Akasawa didn't react, he grabbed the handle of the knife, wedged it, and wedged it into Akazawa's throat!
The two were so close that everyone hadn't seen what was going on clearly, and there was silence on the field for a moment, and a deafening cheer erupted when Lu Ji pulled out his halberd and retreated, and red blood appeared on Chi Ze's neck.
"Ahh!!hh The general wins!! ”
"The general is mighty!"
Many ministers jumped up uncontrollably, and no one forgot the complaint in their hearts just now, and also forgot the number of salutes above the court, and just wanted to cheer for the inky figure on the field.
"Well done!!"
Chu Huai'an shouted and sat down suddenly, Su Li subconsciously grabbed him, but felt a wet piece between his sleeves.
"Master Hou?"
Chu Huai'an covered Su Li's lips, his face was obviously a little bad, Su Li blinked, signaling that he would not be silent, but he lowered his eyes and saw that the fingertips he was holding on his arm were dyed red.
Sure enough, he had a wound on his hand and was bleeding.
"Nothing." Chu Huai'an pulled Su Li to his side and explained in a low voice: "I have been very sleepy for the past two days, and I haven't seen any improvement after drinking medicine, so I was afraid that I would make Hu Ren see the joke when I fell asleep, so I cut it." ”
Talking about business, Su Li leaned close to him, her expression was serious, and from his angle, you could see her tense side face, as if she was worried and distressed.
At such a distance, he could smell the faint fragrance of her body, which made him not want to leave at all, and then his gaze fell on her lips.
Her lips are very beautiful, ruddy and full, but there is a small scar on her lower lip, which is relatively inward, not eye-catching, if it weren't for this angle, Chu Huai'an wouldn't have noticed it.
How did this injury come about?
Chu Huai'an thought, a beautiful picture appeared in his mind.
Having been in the Fengyue place for too long, he knew too well how such an injury could be formed.
In an instant, the pain of the wound on his arm reached his brain, and his heart ached sharply.
Unconsciously, he raised his hand to cover Su Li's lips, and his fingertips rubbed lightly near the wound.
"Master Hou?"
Su Li didn't expect that in this short period of time, his thoughts had turned a hundred times, and he turned his head to look over for some reason, and before he could see this person's expression clearly, he was pressed into his arms, and the bridge of his nose was sore by his hard chest, and he almost fell into tears.
"Don't move, your hands hurt, let me hug them."
“……”
Su Li was speechless, can she hold her hand without pain? What is the rationale for this?
Just as he was thinking, the commotion on the field gradually subsided, the iron gate opened again, and the second Hu warrior Brown Luo came on the field.
Brown Luo is not as tall and strong as Akazawa, with a scar on his face, his eyes are more fierce than Akazawa, and his back is straight, like a lone wolf.
He went to war.
This was Lu Ji's first impression of him, but Lu Ji didn't remember this face, and the scars on his face should not be due to Lu Ji.
Brown Luo didn't rush over as soon as he came on the field like Akaze, on the contrary, he dragged his knife and walked slowly on the field, he was observing Lu Ji's state, and his mind was also thinking about every move when Lu Ji and Chi Ze fought just now.
The long knife dragged on the ground and made a numbing sound, and Lu Ji was also observing Brown Luo, who seemed to be very patient and very smart, such a person was difficult to entangle on the battlefield.
The two observed each other for a moment, and the Hu people in the viewing area couldn't sit still, roaring like a beast, urging Brown Luo to rush up and tear up the halberd.
After a while, Brown Luo finally moved, his movements were not as fast as Chi Ze's, and he used the same move as Chi Ze Fang Cai, and directly slashed at Lu Ji with a knife.
Lu Ji didn't respond to the battle like just now, he moved sideways, and Brown Luo slashed on the ground with a knife, and the thick floor tiles were directly split by him Several feet long, and the blade almost completely sank into the ground.
With a twist of his hands, the blade of the knife lifted the split floor tiles, which was an action that required great strength, Lu Ji frowned, and the halberd swept away, shattering the fragments of the ground drill.
The next moment, the long knife slashed again, and Lu Ji slammed the long halberd horizontally and raised his hand to block it.
Zheng!
After the clanging sound of the weapon, there was still the aftersound of buzzing, Lu Ji's tiger mouth was shattered, his palm was numb, and his legs couldn't help but bend slightly, as if he had been hit by a boulder.
Brown Luo's strength is much greater than Akazawa's!
"Brown Luo! Brown Luo! ”
"Brown Luo!"
The eyes of the Hu people in the viewing area were red, and they shouted the name of Brown Luo with all their might, and the blood and wildness in their bones were all stimulated.
They had just lost a general, and their blood was boiling with blood and death, and they just wanted to kill Lu Ji to satisfy their feverish bloodthirsty mood.
Brown Luo exerted his strength again, Lu Ji's legs bent a little more, and in the face of such absolute overwhelming strength, his forehead was already covered with dense fine sweat.
Brown Luo licked his lips and smiled, a little proud and a little conceited, he knew that the men in Yuanzhao Kingdom were all weak chickens!
The next moment, with the suppression of absolute superiority, Brown Luo kicked Lu Ji in the chest.
This kick used full force, and it was firmly kicked in the chest, and Lu Ji was directly kicked and hit the iron railing, where Chi Ze had just been killed.
"General!"
Su Li shouted, her pupils shrank, and she pushed Chu Huaian away and stood up.
Lu Ji fell from the iron railing, he didn't fall, and he didn't even let go of the halberd, but Su Li saw it clearly, he was injured, and Chi Ze's kick probably broke his sternum.
"Ahem!"
Lu Ji coughed lightly, feeling the fishy sweetness in his mouth, he raised his hand to wipe it, and heard a soft snort from Brown Luo.
That sneer is full of disdain and contempt, and it is easy to stir up unhappiness in people's hearts.
"Hehe......"
Lu Ji also laughed, he grabbed the halberd, straightened his back a little bit, looked at Brown Luo calmly, the corners of his lips were obliquely raised, and he exuded two points of evil, and in a trance, he seemed to return to the arrogance of his youth.
"With this ability, I don't think you are working hard enough to tickle me!"
The words fell, and a little bit of a step, lightning attacked.
The halberd statue blended with him, stabbing up and down, so flexible that it didn't need any thinking and hesitation, and it would be fatal as soon as it struck, and Brown Luo was forced to retreat.
He is good at using his strength to suppress his opponents, but that can only be used in hand-to-hand combat, and now Lu Ji does not give him a chance to get close at all.
Another shot stabbed through the gap between his hands and into the neck of Brown Luo.
Brown Luo turned his head, this time he couldn't avoid it, his neck was punctured, blood gushed out, Brown Luo's eyes were red, he simply abandoned the knife in his hand, and grabbed the halberd with both hands together.
"Ah!!h
Brown Luo let out a beast-like roar, grabbed the halberd and shook it up.
The harder he pushed, the more the blood gushed from his neck, but he didn't seem to feel the pain.
Lu Ji decisively let go, and was thrown out by Brown Luo, and twisted his waist in the air hard before he was thrown out of the test area, and he could fall to the ground, Brown Luo came with a long halberd, Lu Ji decisively reached out to his waist and pulled out the soft sword and raised his hand to block.
Zheng!
Brown Luo's strength was too great, and the soft sword was directly cut off by the halberd, and the halberd almost grazed the tip of the halberd's nose and slashed to the ground, sinking deep into the ground.
Between the lightning and flint, Lu Ji directly grabbed the severed sword body with his bare hands, stepped on the halberd body, bullied himself, and waved his hand hard!
Multiply!!
The red blood blurred his vision, and Brown Luo's eyes widened in disbelief, and then he fell straight back.
Lu Ji landed steadily, threw away the sword in his hand, tore off the hem of his clothes and wiped the blood on his face at will, wrapped it around his hand, and then he bent down to pick up the halberd, and in the posture of a victor, almost defiantly pointed the halberd at the Skatetar in the viewing platform.
Said silently: Let the horse come!
"What is he doing? Is it handsome? It's only been the second game that he played handsome with Kutar?! Chu Huai'an asked suspiciously, only feeling that this style was not quite in line with Lu Ji's usual style.
"The general is drunk."
Su Li whispered, staring at the field with a wrong eye.
Chu Huai'an: "......"
Zhao Hanzhuo: "......"
Gu Yuanfeng: "......"
It turns out that the general of the town is so crazy after getting drunk? In the future, when he is drunk, will he even dare to sit on the throne? How depressed is his life when he is usually sober?
Because of Lu Ji's domineering finger, the entire observation deck exploded, and the civil and military officials who were usually cowering were eager to roll up their sleeves and go to the field to fight with others, and those Hu Ren warriors were even more like eating gunpowder, eager to go up and eat Lu Ji's flesh and gnaw his bones!
Although Lu Ji's finger was a little offended, in this situation, Chu Lingzhao didn't mean to care, but instead laughed, and looked at Hu Tar with a 'kind heart': "The king has broken two generals in a row, can this life and death situation continue?" Ben was also proposed by my younger brother to play, so I can't hurt the peace so much, if the king doesn't want to continue, I can stop it immediately. ”
At this time, where does Kutar have the face to stop? Chu Lingzhao's words were obviously deliberately stabbing him, so that he couldn't get off the stage and had no face.
Suddenly, his face turned blue and black, and he slapped the table and stood up: "Hu He!" Still stunned for what to do, go up and tear him up for this king! ”
