This thing is available in any city, usually, it is a place where ordinary people gather, but sometimes, it will also be used for other purposes, some of which are more bloody than killing chickens and dogs.

But in Yihecheng, where the magistrate does not have the "right to decide", it is the first time that he has seen someone tied at the entrance of the vegetable market with his hands cut off, and he is still a strong man with a total of twenty lines, tied there in a row.

… Is it possible not to see such freshness?

Before noon, there were 50,000 or 60,000 people surrounded by dense layers of surrounding, and it was so crowded that it was impossible to get through.

As the Jinzhou Grain Institute, Yihe around the permanent residence of the garrison is known as 100,000 households, the actual population of 340,000, now the Xiang people to attack, the people outside the city except for a few old people who know the destiny of heaven would rather wait for death than run away again, more than ninety percent of the people are dragging their families with their mouths, fleeing into the city, plus the original residents in the city, I am afraid that there are not more than 400,000 people, if not, there will not be thousands of casualties caused by a rush to kill.

"General, can you go out now?"

Waving his hand, Zhao Feiya said to the subordinates beside him: "It's not time yet." ”

"The fire hasn't been heated yet..."

On the high platform that was temporarily erected, in the small tent, Zhao Feiya crossed his fingers, arched on his chin, and his eyes seemed to be looking at nothing, but he seemed to be staring at something.

… Something, something that is not in front of you, not around you.

Although it is early spring, the sun at noon is already quite poisonous, being exposed to the sun and waiting, no matter how you think about it, it will not be a good taste, the people can still walk around, drink some water to wipe their sweat or something, are solemnly holding soldiers, but the black water army guarding around the vegetable market can only grit their teeth and endure bitterly: you must know that the military discipline is like a mountain, as long as the commander has no order, not to mention sweating through the clothes, the ants around the body, even if the fire burns to the feet, it is impossible to move.

When tens of thousands of people crowded the entrance of the vegetable market, the rest of the city was invisibly much more relaxed, such as the house where Yun Chongbo was lying in bandages.

There aren't many people on weekdays, but it's even more quiet at this moment, even Ma Fubo is out of the way, how can it be Xiaoyin's turn to be reluctant to fall in love here, and Hua Shengrong's turn to be bored here?

"Smell the frost... There you are? ”

The whole body was firmly bound, and Yun Chongbo, who couldn't move, couldn't even turn his head, but when Xiao Wenshuang stepped into the house gently, he asked softly.

“… It's me, Childe. ”

Invited by Ma Fubo, and learned that Yun Chongbo seemed to be very eager to see him, Xiao Wenshuang was extremely worried, and she didn't know how much she thought about how to open her mouth and how to speak humbly along the way, but as soon as she saw Yun Chongbo, she flew away from Jiuxiao Yunyun as soon as she spoke, and she couldn't even think of half a sentence, but she looked at Yun Chongbo who was tied up so much that she couldn't recognize it, and felt very sad in her heart.

"It's good that you're here, I can't move like this now, so I have to let the second uncle go to you, I hope you're okay..."

Yun Chongbo said in a low voice: "It's none of your business, smell the frost... I know, you must have been unconscious, didn't you? Later, when you saw me lying on the ground, you were actually more surprised than anyone else, right..."The more he spoke, the more low his voice became, and Xiao Wenshuang was already stunned.

Yesterday's incident, Xiao Wenshuang had a short period of distraction, and he didn't know how he slaughtered Xiang Ren and accidentally injured Yun Chongbo, but this kind of thing doesn't make sense at all, how can it explain people? She was also very distressed in her heart, and she had been thinking about how to make Yun Chongbo "understand", but at this moment, she was suddenly explained by Yun Chongbo's words, and under the shock, there was a faint surprise in her heart.

Listening to Yun Chongbo again: "I know, I've always known that I have had that kind of thing, so as soon as I saw you, I knew that you were definitely not you, so I would stop you, I knew you wouldn't kill people like that..."

He was seriously injured and lacked confidence, and his words were not hard, but Xiao Wenshuang rarely did not stop it, but just listened silently.

Isn't this kind of understanding what she desires? And although only Yun Chongbo can understand at this moment, for Xiao Wenshuang, how can she care about the judgment of everyone else?

Listening to Yun Chongbo's words, she only felt peaceful and happy in her heart, if it was quiet and unspeakable, after a while, she suddenly woke up: "Childe's injury is not healed." When he was about to stop it, Yun Chongbo said again: "Leave me alone, it's okay..."

"The most important thing, I haven't told you yet..."

He briefly told him about the boxing fight Qiong Feihua outside the Imperial Capital City, Xiao Wenshuang had already heard him say this, but he knew that there must be a reason for his hard work, so he just listened quietly.

Sure enough, Yun Chongbo said again: "Actually, I told you about this matter several times, and I felt as if I had forgotten something, but I couldn't remember it until yesterday, when I was injured, I suddenly thought of it." ”

"At that time, I was actually trying to help you, but I didn't know what to do, I just felt that I couldn't suppress the power that the sea passed on to me, and my body was about to explode and I couldn't fight out, and I was about to despair, but at that time, suddenly a voice said something in my head, and then, I didn't know anything..."

After a pause, he changed to a very clear and firm tone, "The voice said to me, 'If you can't control the power, let the power control you!'" ’”

After saying this, Yun Chongbo was relieved, and even his tone was much more relaxed, "Now that I think about it, I don't understand what that sentence means, but after thinking about it, I think it seems to be a very useful sentence, because at least I didn't explode and die, and since you have lost consciousness like me, it should also be useful to you, and you are much smarter with me, you should be able to figure out what this sentence means... Smell the frost, smell the frost? In the last two sentences, Xiao Wenshuang couldn't hear Xiao Wenshuang's response at all, and he couldn't turn his head to look.

He called a few times, and Fang woke up Xiao Wenshuang and lost his voice: "What? Fang Jue lost his mind and hurriedly said, "Childe, I'm here." ”

He also said: "This sentence is really strange...", his tone gradually slowed down, and his eyes were a little confused, as if he was still thinking.

Yun Chongbo laughed lightly and said: "Anyway, don't worry about me, I have the hardest life, I have been fighting with bears since I was a child, and I always go home with an injury, and I have never come out..."

In the silence, suddenly there was a huge noise like a sea tide, Yun Chongbo was stunned, Xiao Wenshuang had already said: "It's Zhao Feiya, he took all the prisoners of the Xiang people to the entrance of the vegetable market, and wanted to kill the people of the city." As he spoke, his brows furrowed slightly.

Then he heard Yun Chongbo say: "Wenshuang, I'm fine, you go and take a look over there." ”

Although I don't know how it started, when Zhao Feiya's personal soldiers intervened to stop it, it had evolved into a situation where dozens of soldiers and thousands of people were scolding and scuffling.

On weekdays, this is something that will never happen: in Jinzhou, the Black Water Army is at the top of the ruling system, and the status of the Tun Soldiers is even lower than that of ordinary people, but at this moment, the people who have witnessed the defeat of the Black Sailors again and again, and the people who were killed by the Xiang people entering the city the day before, have no respect for the Black Sailors, and the mood of the Black Sailors is also extremely bad because of the fiasco the day before yesterday and today's long stay, so this kind of thing that will never happen in peacetime will occur.

It was also at this time that Zhao Feiya stood up, and his eyes burst out with a terrifying light.

(It's time!) ）

"Enough trouble!"

In the roar, the cold light flashed, accompanied by the sound of collapse and dust flying, when Zhao Feiya flew down from the five-zhang high platform, he also swung out his Hengjiang at the same time, cutting a huge wound on the ground, forcibly separating the Black Water Army and the people.

Taken by the power of his lance, the commotion on both sides was temporarily suppressed, but seeing those angry eyes, the inflated green tendons, and the impulses that were eager to try and the hovering anger, as long as people with a little common sense understood that everything had not subsided.

Zhao Feiya didn't care, he held the lance in his backhand, stood in the middle of the two creations, stared at the coming and going, and said coldly: "Who still wants to fight, I'll accompany you." ”

Fang angrily shouted: "How can you become a hero at this time!" If you have a kind, you will go to fight Xiang people, what kind of thing is fighting in your nest?! As he spoke, he pointed back at his halberd, and Xiang Xiang, who was being tied up by five flowers, lined up the prisoners who were kneeling on the ground, and said angrily: "When they came into the city, where did you all hide?!" ”

In the silence, someone finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted, "What's the fucking big deal? If Lao Tzu had a knife in his hand, he would dare to fight with them, at least he would not be killed by a hundred or ten people! ”

Zhao Feiya Huo Ran turned his head and sneered: "What did you say? ”

The speaker was very tall, but he was in his twenties, his face was arrogant and not angry, and when he saw Zhao Feiya asking, he was not cowardly, and he forcefully broke away from several old men who were desperately pulling him on his side, and said loudly: "I said, don't pretend to be a ball, if Lao Tzu also has a knife and armor, he will dare to fuck him!" ”

Zhao Feiya laughed and said, "Good, good!" Suddenly, he waved his hand, only to hear an exclamation, and the crowd dispersed in an uproar, and saw a long knife stuck in front of the young man, and the blade was still trembling slightly.

"Pluck it up and follow me."

Throwing out the six words to speak, Zhao Feiya turned around and strode towards the Xiangren captive, the young man froze for a moment, and hurriedly took out the knife to keep up, but his hands trembled slightly when he walked.

…

When Xiao Wenshuang and Yun Chongbo knew all this, everything was over: they didn't see how the young man shook his hands and stabbed the Xiangren captive with a knife, nor did they see how the Xiangren captive suddenly broke the rope and scuffled with him, they didn't see how Zhao Feiya sneered and stopped his subordinates from rushing up to help, they didn't see how the young man bit off the neck of the person with his teeth when the knife was taken away, they didn't see how the young man raised his head from the pool of blood with a confused expression, I didn't see how Zhao Feiya laughed and gave an order to hand over all the remaining captives to the people in the city to dispose of.

… and, among other commands.

They only saw the results of the order: they saw that the young men all over the city were in a frenzy because of Zhao Feiya's order, they saw that the Wucang of the Black Water Army was opened and distributed to everyone who was willing to receive weapons, they saw those who received weapons gathering in the streets, chanting Zhao Feiya's official title, and they saw that they were registered one by one, divided into ranks, and began to rush to the city with an excited look according to the command of Zhao Feiya's subordinates.

"What's the use of that?"

Because of his persistence, Yun Chongbo was moved to a high place where he could see the situation in the city, and although his body was still tied and unable to move, it did not prevent him from blinking desperately and asking questions in confusion.

“… I'm weird too. Shaking her head, Xiao Wenshuang said with a little confusion.

He had fought with Xiang Ren, of course Yun Chongbo knew what kind of army it was, although these young people in front of him looked excited, and they also had the blood courage that was probably enough, but the cruelty of seeing the blood of the white blade, Yun Chongbo didn't believe that they could understand.

If they faced the above people in a field battle, they would have to pay at least twenty to one casualties, even if they had the advantage of defending the city, Xiao Wenshuang did not think that this ratio could be pressed below one to ten.

"Probably more than that." Sullen, Ma Fubo said.

As a veteran with decades of experience in the army, his estimation is of course more reliable than Yun Xiao and the others, which also makes the two even more incomprehensible.

With such a big difference in quality, it is impossible for these young people to play a role in changing the situation of the battle, even if this is the case, why did Zhao Feiya do such a useless act?

"But it's really useful, it's very useful." The voice suddenly became very strange, and Ma Fubo's eyes became foggy, as if he had seen something else.

"This will change the position of the people in the city, from 'spectators' to 'participating in war'."

Muttering, Ma Fubo's eyes seemed to see how the people of Xianglou, who sincerely believed in their lord, twenty years ago, desperately tried to stop the army of the Western Expedition, and harassed it with whatever means they could use to stop this army.

"Originally, we didn't think about the people of Xianglou, we believe that as long as we defeat the army of the lord of the country, everything can be calmed, but the result..."

As a military general who stayed in the local area after the pacification of Xianglou, Ma Fubo knew many things that will never be seen in the official history books: he had seen his subordinates who were stabbed to death in bed when buying spring, how the young man who came to the camp every day to sell water tried to poison the food, he had seen the old woman sitting on the side of the road, and he had seen the businessman who was kind and angry, but he secretly pressed all the profits and capital to fund the remnants of the local rebels...

"Almost two years after the end of the war, dozens of brothers are still dying every month, and no matter how careful we are, it is useless."

Recalling that period of time, Ma Fubo said slowly: "In most cases, the people will not intervene in the war, anyway, everyone has to pay food, but sometimes, they will seriously feel that this is their own business, and the other party's army is their enemy, at that time..."

(Is that so?) ）

Turning his eyes hard, Yun Chongbo and Xiao Wenshuang's eyes met, and found that the other party was the same as himself, trying to absorb what Ma Fubo said, but at the same time, new questions surged in his heart:

(However, according to the second uncle, the effect of letting the people 'participate' in is more important to be reflected in a long period of war, but the battle here will last for a few more days at most...) ）

In a trance, a wind blew, the leaves fluttered, and Yun Chongbo suddenly had a cold war, and remembered one thing again.

(Enemy...) If you treat others as enemies, they will treat you as enemies... ）

Gasping for air, Yun Chongbo's eyes seemed to see a nightmare-like world: seeing those who were unarmed, or holding swords that they didn't know how to use, fell one by one like crops in the fields under the cruel and merciless impact of the Xiang people, saw the corpses piled up like a mountain, saw the stinking blood seeping out of the pile of carrion, flowing into a leisurely river...

Although it was an illusion, it was more realistic than reality, and he shook his head violently to get rid of it, but Yun Chongbo forgot that he was still firmly bound, only to exchange for bursts of intense pain, so that he couldn't hold on for a while, and wanted to cry out miserably.

At the same time, Yun Chongbo's heart suddenly calmed down, looking at Ma Fubo and Xiao Wenshuang, who rushed to visit him, he suddenly said something that neither of them expected:

"Second uncle, smell the frost, let's... It's better to cooperate with the Blackwater people to the end, and defend this city first. ”

On the morning of March 22 in the 11th year of Emperor Shaojing, at least here in Yihe City, it was a sunny day, so good that people would forget that there were still thousands of enemy troops outside the city.

Shaking the condensation on his shoulder, Xiao Wenshuang, who had been sitting outside the Yunchongbo residence, slowly stood up, spit it out, only to feel that the six meridians were all cool, and the world in his chest was clear.

(Where did Childe's words come from, is it the legacy of the previous generation of Taiping...) ）

Silently estimating, Xiao Wenshuang gently turned his head, heard the sound of Yun Chongbo's breathing in the room slowly and evenly, and felt very relieved, knowing that there were no injuries in his body, and now the embarrassment was all external injuries, which could be healed in a few days, and listened to the heavy footsteps outside slowly approaching, so he collected his clothes and said, "Mr. Ma?" “

Seeing that it was Ma Fubo who came in response, his face was very tired, and he only glanced at Xiao Wenshuang, and said, "Miss Xiao has worked hard at night." He smiled bitterly and said, "After a busy night, those Xiang people didn't move at all." “

Xiao Wenshuang bowed and said, "Mr. has worked hard." But there was gratitude in my heart.

After it was dark yesterday, Ma Fubo suddenly said that he was not at ease with the city guard, so he entrusted Yun Chongbo to Xiao Wenshuang to take care of him, and left with his own knife, and sure enough, he did not return overnight. Xiao Wenshuang naturally lived up to her trust, and waited for Zhiming under the window of Yun Chongbo - of course she didn't feel the slightest hardship, but she had already been pushed back by Xiaoyin with "It's time for the son to rest", and she probed her brain a few times, until the moon was close to midday, and she fell asleep stupidly.

"General, the list of injuries and losses of the soldiers and civilians in the city yesterday has been sorted out."

"Hmm."

agreed, Zhao Feiya didn't look up, took the booklet with one hand, flipped through it hastily, handed it to the deputy general beside him, and said: "According to this list, sort it out, and match it with the catalog that is now compiled into the people's army, and if there are relatives and elders who are injured, they will be prioritized in front of the battle..." “

But the subordinate paused, and then stopped.

Zhao Feiya had already come to his senses, stopped and raised his head and said, "What's wrong?" “

Half an hour later, in the east of the city, in a faint alley, Zhao Feiya half-squatted beside the two corpses that were one prostrate and one on his back, frowning, and carefully inspecting.

"Yesterday, according to the general's order, I took fifty brothers to investigate the casualties in the city, and I went all the way to here.

Zhao Feiya suddenly raised his right hand, and the subordinate immediately stopped, he groaned, and said to another subordinate who had been hanging by his side: "What do you think." “

The one was expressionless, and said: "Yesterday, Xiang people entered the city, entered through the east gate, and escaped from the southwest two roads, killing 937 people and injuring 1,661 people, and none of them were injured like this. “

After a pause, he said: "But the day before yesterday, in the north of the city, after the Xiang people withdrew, there were also seven black sailors who died. “

Zhao Feiya nodded slightly and said, "Very good." With a sudden wave of his hand, he lifted the previous subordinate out of the alley, and Fang sneered: "Do you think this person is still in the city?" “

The subordinate said, "Yes." "Still pale.

Zhao Feiya smiled and said, "Okay, go back." After taking a few steps, he said, "Tick these two off the list." ”

When the two of them looked at the alley and were about to walk out, Zhao Feiya suddenly stopped again, and said: "These days, the night duty is only patrolling the main road, and you don't have to pay attention to the alley...", paused, and said: "If there are any more dead people, you will be responsible for it, and you must not let the news escape." The man nodded in agreement, and the two walked out of the alley, greeted the non-commissioned officer, and strode away.

The three of them went far away, and the black alley returned to calm, leaving only a few rays of sunlight that seemed to be absent and zigzagged in, shining on the two corpses: both were broken necks, and the flesh and blood that were torn from the neck to the chest and abdomen were blurred, and the fractures were rough and rough, as if they were bitten out with teeth.

"Heavenly Spirit, Earth Spirit, Lishan's old mother went down to the earth, the old mother brought Lu Zuxian, Lu Zu gave me the Immortal Spirit Pill, this Dan is not a mortal fire, a little Yuanyang heart..."

"Uncle, what the hell are you doing?!"

Looking at the chaotic appearance in front of him, Rao is Yun Chongbo Xiao Wenshuang had known Hua Shengrong for a day, so he had no choice but to be speechless, so he had to stand in place dumbfounded.

At this time, the sun was high, and noon was approaching, Yun Chongbo, who was not willing to lie down honestly, heard the noise of people outside, and was very curious, so he helped him out to take a look, but who would have thought that he would see such an absurd scene?

That is, in a clearing dozens of paces longitudinal and horizontal, densely crowded with thousands of people, many old people, and some young women, all tilted their heads up, with a look of reverence and fascination, looking at the slightly higher wooden platform surrounded by them.

On the wooden platform, it is naturally Hua Shengrong, I saw him wearing a plain robe, painting a double fish pattern on the front and back of the heart, wearing a swaying Lu Zu crown, a green silk around his waist, a peach wood sword in his left hand, and a yellow talisman in his right hand, singing and dancing on the stage.

Yun Chongbo shouted, Hua Shengrong shuddered, but forgot that the yellow talisman in his right hand was already burning, how much can that little yellow talisman be burning? Only for a moment, in a blink of an eye, it had burned to his hand, and immediately heard a miserable scream, and saw that the immortal who was still in a state of spirit had begun to hold his right hand, screaming and jumping around on the stage, and there were not many on the platform, he only jumped a few times, and had jumped to the side, only to hear a mountain sound, Hua Daxian had fallen to Pingyang, and there was a stupid seven meat and eight vegetarian food.

The abrupt change is not funny, at least, in the eyes of Yun Chongbo and Xiao Wenshuang, they only want to laugh, but the following things make them unable to laugh at all.

After a brief silence, the men's gaze began to turn to the two of them... The sight, no matter how you look at it, is not friendly.

"These two guys are not good people, they disturb the immortals, they must be the wicked people that the immortals warned just now!"

In the middle of looking at each other, I don't know who suddenly raised their arms like this, and saw that the crowd responded to each other, and shouted one after another, rushing towards the two of them.

***

"Tell me what the hell is going on!"

"This, nephew, I didn't expect you to run out suddenly!"

kept wiping sweat, Hua Shengrong's body seemed to have shrunk to half the size of his usual life, and he looked even more pitiful than when Xiaoyin first appeared.

…

"Oh, you said that you are a great monk who came down from Longhu Mountain, and you said that you did a ritual, burned out the Dan ash, and drank the Dan ash and swallowed it, so you were not afraid of being trampled by the horses' hooves of the Xiang people... They actually believe your nonsense?! ”

was carried by Xiao Wenshuang and fled two streets, although he was not injured or tired, Yun Chongbo's mood was still very bad, looking at Hua Shengrong's eyes, he was more fierce than the previous times.

"But, virtuous nephew, even someone will believe it!"

Yun Chongbo didn't know what to say for a while, but Xiaoyin suddenly smiled and said, "Uncle Hua, you must have cheated them out of a lot of money, right?" Yun Chongbo suddenly saved, and smiled unconsciously and cruelly: "Yes, yes, uncle, you didn't say that everything is good, right, then hand over all the money you cheated!" In the blink of an eye, there was already a wail like when a pig was killed, and Hua Shengrong was still crying: "Virtuous nephew, you can't be like this... Besides, I didn't lie to them, I really read the Nanzu Jindan Dafa..."As he spoke, he took out a broken book from his bosom and shook it there, but he only trembled it and was snatched by Xiao Wenshuang's hand, and said with a smile while flipping through it: "It's really the way of life of Nanzong Bai Zhenren, but what kind of play are you reading just now...", I heard Hua Shengrong Zhengse say: "I don't dare to agree, you are strong in cultivation, but you still have to look at me in preaching, just those people outside, what do you read to them' a thing is round, revealed through the ages, and is dedicated and gentle, Hanguang silently said, "That must be something that can't be turned into a penny..."Xiao Wenshuang ignored him anymore, took the book into his arms, and said: "This book is with you, it's called Mingzhu Nitu..."

They have known Hua Shengrong for many days, and they knew that this person was lazy and straightforward, and there was no hope of correction.

Yun Chong Boqi said: "How...", but seeing Xiao Wenshuang waving his hand silently, he actually took out the broken book from his arms again, frowned and read it carefully, but only turned a few pages and closed it at once, put it into his arms, his face was already a little ugly, and then he actually bowed his hand to Yun Chongbo and said, "Childe, I'll go out for a while." He went straight away, leaving several people confused.

Xiao Wenshuang, who left in a hurry, was actually in a very heavy mood, to that extent... If Yun Chongbo knew, he would definitely chase him out desperately.

(This is the Qi of the True One, the first of all things, too void and too nothing, and too much space and too yuan.) It is not measurable by size. The vastness is beyond the reach of the end. Its big has no outside, its small has no inside, the big world is big, and the small is in the millimeter. There is no color at the top, and there is no abyss at the bottom... ）

Reciting the sentence he had just seen in his heart, Xiao Wenshuang walked faster and faster, and his face became more and more ugly.

In fact, this Nanzu Jindan Dafa is a tributary of the Dao, and its status is not high, Xiao Wenshuang only dabbled in it when he was a teenager, and he never took it to heart, and the words and sentences have been indifferent for a long time, but because he was in a hurry, he suddenly thought of some things.

(It is not measurable by size.) It's immense, and it's beyond the bounds of the end... ）

Reading silently in his heart, Xiao Wenshuang seemed to have seen the sneering man in front of him, holding a lance in his backhand, standing proudly under the nine-fold palace, in front of the ten thousand armies, but they were all regarded as nothing, his eyes were deep, as if he contained the vast spring water that could accommodate all things and swallow all things, once it surged, it would also shatter all the size rules in this world...

(Yes, this passage is in line with his temperament, but if his pseudonym is chosen for this...) ）

For a long time, Xiao Wenshuang suspected that the three words "Zhao Feiya" were pseudonyms, but after thinking hard for many days, there was still no clue.

(This is, the Qi of the True One, the precursor of all things...) ）

Muttering in his heart, Xiao Wenshuang suddenly remembered the moral mantra again.

(I don't know who the son is, the first of the emperors...) ）

Six battalions and eight guards of the forbidden army, known as 200,000 people, among which there are thousands of generals, and there are rotation rules, although Xiao Wenshuang is suspicious, but there is no way to confirm it, but, along her current train of thought, there are only a very few goals waiting for the end, and each of them cannot be misinterpreted as a deputy car.

(Emperor, first, regent, celestial soldier, from the imperial capital, with a secret order, dare to recruit private soldiers... ）

All kinds of suspicions all along, all kinds of clues, suddenly tangled together, constituted a huge storm, rushing in Xiao Wenshuang's chest, when finally, the name finally appeared clearly in front of her eyes, she actually felt that the true qi in her body was agitated, and she could no longer restrain herself, and she wanted to slam her hands out and slam on the remnant wall in front of her!

Xiao Wenshuang's full force... In exchange for the continuous sound, the broken wall that fell by mistake, and the smoke and dust that billowed up, it also attracted curious passers-by and patrolling sergeants, but when it became clear that it was "General Xiao" who strode out of the smoke, they all shrank their necks in amusement, and walked away as if nothing happened.

They couldn't understand the storm in Xiao Wenshuang's eyes, the storm that was burning.

(It must be him, only he will everything fit...) ）

(The person with the same surname Zhao, the second son of Emperor Shaojing, the first emperor elephant!) ）

(You, wait for me...) ）

If you remove the two small chaos caused by Hua Shengrong and Xiao Wenshuang respectively, Yihe City basically spent a quiet day, and when the thickness of the troops suddenly increased a lot, Zhao Feiya was also able to calmly arrange and deal with the various attacks of the Xiang people one by one.

Under his careful arrangement, Yun Chongbo and Ma Fubo's worst fears did not appear, those civilian troops were divided into units between twenty and fifty people, and they were handed over to those Zhao Feiya's subordinates one by one, and although they were only fighting as ordinary soldiers before, but when they were assigned to their subordinates, they all quickly showed their ability to teach and command, and made good use of these young people who had nothing but courage and impulsiveness. In the battle that lasted for a day, although there were also defenders of the city totaling nearly 600 people who were seriously injured or even killed, compared to Ma Fubo's previous estimates, they were already heaven and earth.

For Yun Chongbo, all this is really a mess, but for a veteran like Ma Fubo, he immediately grasped the point of the matter.

"Every one of Zhao Feiya's subordinates is a qualified officer."

Making such a conclusion as a "veteran", Ma Fubo's expression was slightly surprised, but also respectful.

"It is far more difficult to command a few hundred officers than it is to command a few hundred soldiers, and it is even more difficult to make these people who already have the ability to officers die with ease."

Looking very tired, Ma Fubo sat in the chair with his head bowed, and said in a low voice.

"This person already has the ability to command the six armies and take on the national disaster alone..."

Faced with such a judgment, Yun Chongbo was speechless, while Xiao Wenshuang snorted coldly in the deepest part of his heart.

In the day that has ended, she and Ma Fubo both put on armor and took turns guarding at the east gate, successfully preventing several rounds of attacks by Xiang Ren, and also won Zhao Feiya's unsparing praise, at the same time, Zhao Feiya even proposed to her, worried that the other party's master would take advantage of the night to attack the city or even join forces with the outside, hoping that she could hand over Yun Chongbo to Ma Fubo to guard this night and join forces with herself to patrol the city. At that time, after a short hesitation, he looked at Zhao Feiya with very strange eyes, and Xiao Wenshuang slowly agreed to his request

At this time, it was already dark, and the third night after Yihe's attack was about to come.

It was dark, every house was on fire, light smoke was floating, and both inside and outside the city, whether it was military or civilian, began to arrange their own dinner.

In the night, there are still faint figures sneaking through the streets, they know each other or don't know the existence of others, but they all have a firm self-confidence, believing that their actions are the smartest and the most successful of all actions.

If there were gods in heaven looking down on this city that had passed and was bleeding, what would they think of these confident people? If these people also have strong beliefs and pious prayers, how will the gods choose and obey?

Who knows?

It's dark at night.

It was almost time, and the moon in the sky was dim, like a slightly trembling knife, gliding weakly among the clouds, but nothing could be cut or hurt.

Under the moon, there are huge and dark buildings, still with the scars of swords and arrows and the black of fire, like fierce beasts lying on the ground, but they still have their dignity and cannot be insulted.

Here, is the first to be conquered by the Xiang people of the East Sancang, its buildings have been damaged for the most part, among which the grain and grass have also been burned into a mess, Rao is open fire has been extinguished, but those dark fires that are burning in the sinister and sinister can not be eliminated immediately, can only be quietly brewed by them under the burned grain and grass, squeeze out some light smoke, and rise into the air.

At the beginning of entering the city, Zhao Feiya arranged manpower to clear the people around Liucang, and because the East Sancang had been burned, it was impossible to send more people to rescue the remnants of the grain, so Zhao Feiya taught his subordinates to isolate the remnants of the fire after extinguishing them, and did not take further action.

At the moment, he is patrolling here.

Although he had invited Xiao Wenshuang to patrol the city together, he was alone at the moment, and he did not have the long lance "Hengjiang" in his hand.

A man, gently and slowly under the moon, moved slowly among the ruins of the ground with a very careful attitude, and from time to time stretched out his hand and pressed it on the wall of the blackened barn, in which only a pile of charcoal remained.

After a long time like this, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

(Good guys, is that so...) ）

"I seem to be late."

A low and pleasant voice suddenly sounded, and at the same time, Zhao Feiya turned solemnly, turned around quickly, and looked towards the place where the voice came, respectfully, and performed an impeccable junior salute.

"Like a first thank you for your father-in-law's guidance."

Laughing softly, the voice said, "See? ”

Zhao Feiya said respectfully: "Xiangxian is ashamed, if it weren't for the deliberate guidance of his father-in-law, he would still be in a dream at this moment." ”

The voice sighed, "No one would have thought of this kind of thing. ”

And he said, "Now that you understand, I will go." By the time he reached the last few words, he was gone. Zhao Feiya was no longer allowed to ask questions.

Zhao Feiya also understood the other party's invitation at this moment, but this matter was just that, since he had already made himself meditate here alone by "arriving late", and found that the key was here, the purpose was achieved, with that person's always high-ranking demeanor, he would not talk to himself much.

But he still had doubts in his mind.

(It's not good to be a celebrity with his high clogs, come to this place to drink sand, is it an old man's trick, but, just with me, my godson, I won't have such a big face...) ）

As soon as his mind was swept away, Zhao Feiya knew that the two of them were not something he could figure out at the moment, let alone bother with it, so he turned his mind back and began to think about the next meeting tonight.

(Well, maybe it's better to get straight to the point...) ）

Thinking like this, Zhao Feiya quietly disappeared into the night, and in the blink of an eye, this place had returned to the previous silence and emptiness, and only occasionally there were some sounds of insects and rats that knew Suosuo, which slightly broke the silence of death.

At the moment, in the south of the city, there is still a black alley with no people.

Arching his hand, Zhao Feiya smiled and said, "Xiao... General Xiao has worked hard, patrolling the city in the middle of the night, can he get something? ”

Xiao Wenshuang smiled coldly and said, "As General Zhao expected, there is nothing. ”

Fang forced Zhao Feiya to look at him and said, "General Zhao invited late at night, what do you have to say, please say it clearly." ”

How smart is Xiao Wenshuang? Zhao Feiya's excuses made even Ma Fubo feel wrong, how could he hide it from her? But she was a bold and careful person, and she relied on her skills to be above Zhao Feiya, and felt that at this moment she was still assisting each other, and she was not afraid of any disadvantages for him, so she came as promised.

Zhao Feiya heard her say that she was not ochre, but he only smiled and said, "Miss Xiao is really smart." ”

Xiao Wenshuang breathed a little, his face was pulled down, and he said coldly: "General Zhao." ”

Zhao Feiya smiled, raised his hand and said, "Rude." ”

But he said: "Don't dare to ask a word, the misunderstanding between Miss Xiao and Brother Yun should have been resolved, right?" ”

Xiao Wenshuang's eyes shrank slightly, and said, "This matter has nothing to do with military affairs, General Xie Zhao cares." Zhao Feiya has already answered: "Actually, I think I was too worried, the girl is extremely smart, and Brother Yun is honest and open, of course, there will be no deep misunderstanding." ”

Xiao Wenshuang couldn't bear it anymore, hugged his fists, and said, "If General Zhao has nothing else to do, he will leave below." Zhao Feiya said hurriedly: "Naturally, there is still something." On the other hand, he said: "Actually, I just want to confirm that there is indeed no misunderstanding between the two of you now." Seeing that although Xiao Wenshuang stopped, his vision was still very bad, but he smiled calmly: "This is really important, it is really related to military affairs." Xiao Wenshuang's face was still stiff, and she didn't answer.

Zhao Feiya smiled bitterly, and suddenly said: "I want to confirm it, because what I like most is a fair competition, but what I hate the most is to take advantage of others." ”

Xiao Wenshuang was stunned and said, "What did you say?" ”

Zhao Feiya laughed and said, "Don't you understand, I still haven't married you..." His expression changed to extremely serious, "How about being my woman?" ”

Xiao Wenshuang lost her voice and said, "What did you say?!" There was panic in his voice, but there was nothing false about it.

Zhao Feiya's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he said, "Don't you know? ”

"In fact, when I knew that you were a woman, I knew that you were the woman I was looking for, the only woman I was willing to want, as long as a woman like you could walk side by side with me for the rest of my life."

"When you killed that big leader, I was watching from the city, you were so beautiful at that time, I have never seen a woman who made me so tempted... I can't speak, I just want you anyway. ”

Xiao Wenshuang only felt at a loss at this time, and she didn't even know where to start, she just ate food in her mouth, and she couldn't say a word. Zhao Feiya didn't need her to answer, and still said: "I have grown from young to old, it's not that I haven't seen a woman, but I have never touched it, because I hope that I can only touch one woman in my life, I don't want that kind of delicate woman..." "I want a woman who is strong enough, a woman who can stand side by side with me and can really help me, a woman who doesn't want to be just treated as a woman, a woman who can't just be treated as a woman, a..."

"But I've never seen a woman like this until I met you." Finally finished speaking in one breath, Zhao Feiya stopped, with a little respite, and with expectation, looked at Xiao Wenshuang's eyes.

Xiao Wenshuang's mouth opened and opened, but she felt that her throat was dry, and she still couldn't speak.

Zhao Feiya was already anxious again: "Believe me, what I say is from the bottom of my heart, you..." At least I have the confidence to go down in history! But in the end, he couldn't stop Xiao Wenshuang from castrating, and when he was feeling depressed, he suddenly heard a miserable cry from the northwest, and he went straight to the clouds!

The place where the voice sounded was several miles away from the place where the two of them were, and it was night, and the road in the city was tortuous, but less than half a moment after the scream sounded, Zhao Feiya Xiao Wenshuang had already pierced the night sky like a big bird and fell close!

They weren't the first to arrive.

There were already two corpses on the ground, one was half-sitting on the wall, the other was lying on his back, a man in gray was squatting next to the dead man with his back to him, looking down, three or four steps behind him, a man in white was looking up and down the two corpses with his hands in his hands.

The back of the man in gray was familiar to both of them, but they couldn't remember who it was for a while, but the identity of the man in white was recognized by both of them at first sight.

(The King of Men, how could he be here...) ）

Shocked, Xiao Wenshuang didn't know what to do for a while: among the eight poles of heaven and earth, Ao Fuqi Qiu Yangming's family Kuang Fu Emperor surname for thousands of years, since the Taiping Dao is incompatible, Zhang Yuanhe, as a Taoist, of course, is also the same as the Taiping Dao, Sun can not be arrogant and arrogant, has never intended to ally with others, Cang Yueming is independent of the world, never inclined to any force, although he can't make friends with Sun, but he also has to make a three-year war contract, not to mention that he has no blue eyes on the Taiping Dao, Shi Futu has been sitting in the Zen Lianyin Temple for more than ten years, and has never gone down the mountain half a step, From Xiao Wenshuang's standpoint, there is no need to give them any special respect, only Wang Siqian, the "King of Filial Piety" who indulges in poetry and wine all day long and always shows the world as a "merry and talented man", but Zhang Nanjin once specially warned that if he encounters it, Xiao Wenshuang must give him the most respected disciple gift.

(But, now, if it's a gift, then... That guy is still on the side... ）

Just as he was hesitating, Zhao Feiya had already raised his voice and shouted: "I am Zhao Feiya, the deputy general of the forbidden army, who is ahead?!" (Xiao Wenshuang sneered in her heart, but she was also secretly shocked, thinking: "He reacted so quickly!") Seeing that Wang Siqian frowned, he glanced over here, raised his hand gently, and said, "I am Langya Wang Siqian." At the same time as he spoke, Zhao Xiao and the others felt that their limbs seemed to be held by giant hands, and their bodies suddenly froze, unable to move, but they only flashed, and they were free, so they both stood in their clothes, and they did not give a salute, let alone speak.

At this moment, the gray-clothed man had already stood up from the corpse, frowned, and said, "These two corpses are strangely dead. As soon as he spoke, the two of them were stunned.

That man turned out to be Ma Fubo.

Xiao Wenshuang was thinking, "Isn't he the one who takes care of the son?" Why did you come here..."Seeing Ma Fubo turn around, he was shocked again: Ma Fubo's expression was extremely depressed and tired, Xiao Wenshuang saw his face, and couldn't help but think: "Could it be that there is any accident in the child?" “

Wang Siqian nodded slightly, his right hand pointed at the two corpses, one put it away, the two corpses rose in response, floated in the air, and slowly floated in front of Wang Siqian, and stopped by himself when he saw that there were three or four steps away, Wang Siqian's left hand middle finger and thumb rubbed gently, and there was a white light, shining up and down, left and right, illuminating the two corpses clearly, not even the slightest shadow.

Xiao Wenshuang only felt a burst of nausea, and was busy suppressing herself, still thinking in her heart: "What is this, how can you bite out such a wound..."

Under the white light, I saw that the two corpses were mutilated: one was bitten raw from the throat and tore down along the chest, and was torn open with the flesh of the belt to reveal the abdominal cavity inside, but it was already empty, only half of the intestines were still dangling in it; In addition to the chest of the other body, the eyes were also gouged out, and only two blood holes remained, which were still slowly bleeding down the bridge of the nose, as if they were still restless after death, and they were still mourning and weeping for the pain just now.

(If not a beast, then...) ）

Thinking in his heart, Xiao Wenshuang was also looking at Ma Fubo standing in the aperture, seeing that his expression was blank, he didn't know what he was thinking, his body was covered with blood from his sleeves to his shoulders, and then to his chest, which was stained when he checked the injury just now.

Wang Siqian looked at Zhao Feiya, and suddenly smiled: "You are very good, you can take on a big responsibility." Zhao Feiya's body was shocked, and he hurriedly bowed down and said: "The king of people has won the award, and Feiya is ashamed to be ashamed." There was joy and shock in his expression, and he really performed the subordinate generals very well. Wang Siqian ignored him anymore, turned to Ma Fubo, frowned, and said, "Is this Ma Zhaoyi in the Western Route Army in the past?" Ma Fubo heard him say this, seemed surprised, smiled bitterly, bowed and said, "It's the general." The attitude is not as respectful as Zhao Feiya and Xiao Wenshuang, and he still has a tired face.

When the West Route Army conquered and broke the Xiang Building, Ma Fubo was awarded the title of General Zhaoyi, and he was the first of the five people because of the four pins, but since then he has resigned and returned to the knighthood because of Zhao Tong and Zhao Guangshi, and returned to the countryside, farming for more than ten years, naturally no one is called like this, Wang Siqian's "Ma Zhaoyi" three words came out, don't say that it is him, even Zhao Xiao and the two of them also felt a trance, both have a sense of separation, only to see Ma Fubo look tired, rough clothes, a face of pale Dai, the back of the hand is cracked, and the joints of the hands and feet are bulging high, Full is an old farmer who has just come up from the field, where is there still half a point of general momentum?

Wang Siqian's eyes flickered, he looked Ma Fubo up and down, and said, "Does Ma Zhaoyi have any other clues?" ”

Ma Fubo shook his head slightly, not looking at Wang Siqian, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Zhao Feiya and Xiao Wenshuang felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, but they couldn't say what was wrong, both of them were extremely smart characters, although they had a lot of money in their hearts, they didn't bring out any strange things on their faces, they all stood respectfully, and they didn't say anything.

Wang Siqian was silent for a while, and suddenly sighed, looking extremely tired.

Then he said to Zhao Feiya: "You just need to guard the city carefully, this matter... I'll take care of it for you. Zhao Feiya's chest was shocked, and he hurriedly fell to the ground and said: "I will not thank the king of people!" But before he could reach the ground, he was stopped by Wang Siqian waving his sleeves.

Wang Siqian raised his head to the sky and said calmly: "You don't have to thank me. After a pause, he said in a cold voice: "No matter who dares to do this kind of thing in front of my eyes, I can't let him go." ”

Ma Fubo's expression was blank, just looking at the injuries on the two people, as if he hadn't heard anything. On the other hand, Zhao Feiya said again: "No..." Xiao Wenshuang also wanted to speak, but before he finished speaking, he saw Wang Siqian turn around, and he was already waving his hand. Both of them stopped talking and quietly retreated with Ma Fubo.

General Fang withdrew from the alley, but Wang Siqian said, "That General Xiao... Please leave a step. Then he said slowly, "Go back." ”

"What kind of person can do such a thing?!"

In order to stabilize the morale of the military and the people in the city, and because Wang Siqian, the top figure in the world, promised to clean up the matter, the matter of "monster killing" was blocked and not let the people in the city know, but, of course, it is impossible to block it to the point that even Yun Chongbo can hide it.

The injury is still not healed, Yun Chongbo can only use his mouth to be angry, and nothing else can be done, but this still makes Xiao Wenshuang and Xiaoyin next to him very worried, Xiao Wenshuang is not very good at speaking, Xiaoyin has rushed to have a lot of soft words and gentle words, to dispel Yun Chongbo's "heroic thoughts".

Ma Fubo, who was on the side, had been sullen since the night, sitting next to him with his head in his hands, not knowing what he was thinking, letting the three of them chatter without interjecting a word.

Until Yun Chongbo said again, "This is a beast!" Then he suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashed, as if he remembered something at once, but there was fear. His face changed in a flash, and he was still a wooden appearance, but he had fallen into Xiao Wenshuang's eyes.

When Xiaoyin and Ma Fubo were not there, Xiao Wenshuang had already asked Yun Chongbo about coming at night, and knew that at least until he fell asleep, Ma Fubo was guarding here. But it is still difficult to get rid of the question in her heart: the place where the accident happened is a little farther away from this house than the place where she and Zhao Feiya met at night, with Ma Fubo's body, why can he arrive earlier than the two, and even, earlier than Wang Siqian, who is one of the strongest people in the world?

(Unless, he's already nearby...) ）

However, Ma Fubo's concern for Yun Chongbo is by no means false, Xiao Wenshuang also saw and understood, if he saw something strange, he would leave a seriously injured and unhealed Yun Chongbo who could not protect himself at all, it would be unbelievable.

(But he must know something, there must be something he knows that we don't, lurking in the darkness of this Yihe City...) ）

Confused, but in the end, Xiao Wenshuang still decided that there was no need to tell these things, as far as she was concerned, all this had nothing to do with her, as long as Ma Fubo had harmless intentions towards Yun Chongbo, it didn't matter what strong enemies he had attracted or what friends he had in the dark.

What's more, Xiao Wenshuang still has something that gives her a headache now.

(That guy, he actually said something like that...) ）

For Xiao Wenshuang, one of the biggest benefits of the Night Tragedy was that it allowed her to get out of that momentary embarrassment, so that she didn't have to force herself to think of a decent answer.

It's ridiculous, but Xiao Wenshuang himself understands that if it was a tactic that Zhao Feiya wanted to attack her, he had already succeeded most of it, at that moment, Xiao Wenshuang was completely in a panic, if Zhao Feiya suddenly attacked at that time, at least he could ask her for half her life.

(Alas, it would have been great if that was indeed his tactic...) ）

I only felt weak, but I was worried about revealing my shape, Xiao Wenshuang quietly twisted her hands together, and pressed the tiger's mouth hard to concentrate her attention, but suddenly her heart moved, and when she looked at it, she saw Xiaoyin's tray of cold tea floating away as if nothing happened. Listening to Yun Chongbo chattering to Ma Fubo about the things in Jinzhou, he was talking about how to go south to take Qingzhou, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the leaders of those black sailors are really stupid, just make a fake knife and say it is Qingyu, you can deceive him with a lot of silver, if you really see your baby, second uncle, don't... Uh, that's right. ”

Shaking his head, Yun Chongbo finally remembered what the question he had been shadowing all along.

On the night he entered Yihe City, he and Ma Fubo had two knives, and the knife in Ma Fubo's palm was broken, of course, because his skills were already extraordinary at the moment, but also because the knife used by Ma Fubo was not comparable to the sea.

"Hey, second uncle, why haven't you seen your Qingyu these days?"

Hearing this question, Ma Fubo seemed quite surprised, but he seemed to have been prepared, shook his head, and said lightly: "Lost in the chaotic army, probably the cheap black sailor." He added: "I probably don't recognize the goods, otherwise there should be some rumors." ”
