Chapter 167: Obeyed by the King
After the dust left, Ma Xiu smiled very happily, as if he was a victorious general, shaking his body on horseback, and the Qiankun fan in his hand kept opening and closing, throwing out a loud sound. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Ming Miao, who had never spoken up, immediately stepped forward and looked at Liu Xi back and forth, "I didn't expect that you still know about Buddhism?" ”
Smiled and shook his head, there are some things Liu Xi can't say to outsiders after all, so he has to diverge the words, "Sometimes people pursue something all their lives, but they never really understand it, and I just talk nonsense, maybe I talked about the knot in the dust." ”
After saying this, Liu Xi didn't wait for Ming Miao to speak, and raised his head at Ju'er, "Okay, let's continue on our way, I hope we can reach Hua Weiyang before sunset." ”
Ju'er looked up at the sky, and responded, "Childe, don't worry, we will definitely arrive before dark." ”
Let's say, Ju'er shook the leather whip in her hand and rode her horse at a gallop, Liu Xi and the others followed, and the pedestrians once again opened a shuttle line on the grassland.
When the sun was only half red left, Ju'er, who was speeding in front, suddenly turned around and shouted, "It's just ahead!" ”
Raising his body and following Ju'er's point, Liu Xi saw scattered domes, but the figures were longing, and he could even see the fires burning everywhere.
It's not good, Hua Weiyang is in danger.
Naturally, Ju'er also noticed it, and the joy on her face was immediately replaced by panic, and she whipped a few lashes towards the black horse under her crotch.
But the black horse kept running around day and night, and was already exhausted, and suddenly screamed and fell to the ground, Ju'er was thrown out, but fortunately, she had some skills, and after turning over in mid-air, she stumbled a few steps and barely stopped.
"Get on my horse!"
Ma Xiu, who was quick-eyed, rushed forward and stretched out his hand, and Ju'er, who was bent on protecting, didn't care whether men and women kissed or not, so she took Ma Xiu's hand and sat behind him with a leap.
In the midst of this screaming one after another, Liu Xi and the others rushed straight into the crowd of people who were fighting, and took advantage of the panic caused by the long sword in their hands to open and close, taking the lives of dozens of people.
"Po Yu, you take care of Yusheng!"
Ma Xiu let out a low shout, flew off the horse, and the Qiankun fan in his hand opened and closed from time to time, but all the Huns who were hit flew out several feet away.
Huyan Qingshi and the others listened to Ma Xiu's words, and were about to gather around Liu Xi, but they were stopped by Liu Xi, "Don't care about me, you and the three of you will join forces and kill the enemy by yourself!" ”
Fighting, is the best opportunity to train troops, this is also Liu Xi led Huyan Qingshi and their purpose to come out, after half a year of training, Liu Xi believes that their three-person group is enough to deal with these Hun guerrillas.
Liu Xi gave orders, Huyan Qingshi and others dared to disobey, but they still had consideration in their hearts, and while walking, there would always be a few people blocking Liu Xi's back in case someone sneaked up from behind.
"Childe, save my princess!"
Ju'er was besieged by five or six big men with obscene faces, and it was difficult to get out for a while, so she could only put all her hopes on Liu Xi.
Turning his head, Liu Xi also saw a dome that was much larger than usual with red and green patterns, surrounded by ruthless Huns, and the other side guarding in front of the dome was constantly falling, and it was about to be attacked.
Seeing this, Liu Xi dropped the blood-stained long sword in his hand, took the longbow from the back of a corpse, and roared angrily while bending the bow and stringing, "Break the captive, form a circle!" ”
Hearing the sound, Huyan Qingshi and others hurriedly formed a circle to protect Liu Xi in the center, all of them had grim faces, and the long swords in their hands were staggered to take away the lives of the Huns.
Protected by Huyan Qingshi and others, Liu Xi shot arrows with confidence, and the flying feathers were like the falling moon chasing the stars, inserting into the head of the Huns who were raising their swords.
took the lives of more than 20 people in a row, the threat of the dome was greatly reduced, and the other enemies behind him were also killed by Ma Xiu, there was not much left, and Hua Weiyang's people were enough to control the situation.
And all this, from beginning to end, Ming Miao was holding the qin and watching quietly, the look in his eyes was still so tranquil, as if he had already looked down on the blood and life and death in front of him.
Perhaps sensing that the overall situation had been decided, Ming Miao turned around and walked slowly to the other side of the grassland, the evening breeze blowing, stirring his white shirt, fluttering clothes, as elegant and refined as his piano sound.
Seeing him like this, Ma Xiu, who walked to Liu Xi's side, was about to speak, but was stopped by Liu Xi, "Let him go......"
Since Ming Miao was willing to go to the grassland with him, Liu Xi already knew that he would help, but at the most critical moment.
He is a talisman for Liu Xi.
Glancing at Ming Miao's eyes again, Liu Xi carried the long sword, dripping blood all the way, the sword rose and fell, and killed the unique dome.
After all the Huns who were to attack fell, the Huns who were guarding the dome were still there, the gratitude in their eyes turned into vigilance, blocking in front of Liu Xi, holding a knife in his hand, and refusing to retreat half a step.
"Childe, please wait!"
Ju'er, who was dressed in yellow and stained red with blood, rushed forward, and after saying a word to Liu Xi, he explained in Xiongnu to the man with a beard on his face.
After a while, those people dispersed, and Ju'er lifted the hanging felt curtain and made a gesture of invitation to Liu Xi.
Without thinking too much, Liu Xi strode into the dome, where several copper lamps were trying their best to disperse a hazy halo, and on the low bed sat a Miaoman figure with a red jacket and black veil covering his face, and his slender and white hands were tightly grasping a thin young man beside him.
Between the willow eyebrows, beads of sweat are faintly visible.
When he saw that it was Liu Xi who came in, a hint of brightness flashed in Hua Weiyang's eyes, and he hurriedly got up, and his sheepskin boots hurriedly stepped forward, bringing out a refreshing fragrance.
"Thank you two sons for rescuing Helian in distress."
The voice is as ethereal and graceful as it was at the beginning, like a gurgling stream flowing in the heart, making people want to step forward and tear off the black veil that covers their faces, so as to see what kind of flower-like face is behind this veil.
Naturally, Liu Xi had seen Hua Weiyang's appearance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that it was a pity, but this trip was not for the love of his children, so Liu Xi always had to figure out some things.
Thinking of this, Liu Xi handed the long sword in his hand to Huyan Qingshi, and said softly with a smile, "I didn't expect that the girl would be a daughter, and I was really surprised when I heard Ju'er talk about it for the first time." ”
Ma Xiu, who was looking around, heard the sound and hurriedly responded, "Yes, yes, even if I scratch my head, I can't imagine that the girl is the princess of the Huns." ”
Under the veil, Hua Weiyang smiled apologetically, her thin eyebrows flew with the clouds, and the color dyed the clouds a little, "It's really a last resort to let the two sons laugh, but if not, how can they have the fate to meet the two sons?" ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Xi with bright eyes, and Hua Weiyang immediately lowered his head again, although he was covered by a veil, he still had a shyness that made people's hearts flutter.
Naturally, Liu Xi also saw it, but when he wanted to take a closer look, Hua Weiyang had already turned around and led the young man over, so he had to secretly say that it was just an illusion before.
"Childe, this is my brother Sidon."
The young man's face was a little uneasy, and after a while, he bent down and made a nondescript gesture, and said in unfamiliar and obscure Chinese, "Sidon is polite." ”
Liu Xi looked at the young man carefully, his clothes were just ordinary fur clothes, and even the ordinary nobles in the Huns could not compare to them, his face was dark yellow and not ruddy, and even his body was thin and weak, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.
I think that this Sidon is not well received by Nohar.
Probably guessing what Liu Xi thought, Hua Weiyang reached out and stroked Sidon's head, and then Youlan sighed lightly, "Sidon's mother was snatched by his father Khan, so Sidon has always been bullied, and he is only close to me." ”
Speaking of this, Liu Xi immediately understood in his heart that Sidon was born to the Han people, and naturally had no status among the Huns. And Hua Weiyang is close to Seaton, in addition to the kindness of the girl's family, I am afraid that there is still a situation of sympathy.
In this world where women's status is not as good as men's, if there are birthmarks on their faces that are different from ordinary people, they will be disliked.
Coughing lightly, Liu Xi abandoned the cranky thoughts in his heart, and went straight to the point, "Girl, there is something that Liu Xi has never figured out, why did he come to me?" ”
Hua Weiyang pondered for a moment, and then replied slowly, "The grassland is in turmoil, the war and dispute between Muzat and almonds has made the grassland people miserable, and Helian and Sidon are also worried about their lives, so Helian wants to ask Gongzi to help me quell this war of anger and resentment." ”
"Why me? You also knew that when the king of the Xiongnu was alive, he sent 200,000 troops, causing hundreds of my people to die. ”
After being silent for a while, Hua Weiyang said with a sad voice, "When Father Khan led his troops south, Helian was strongly opposed, but he was humble and light, and later Father Khan was defeated and returned, which can be regarded as the punishment of the gods for him......"
Speaking of this, Hua Weiyang stopped, why did she choose Liu Xi, in fact, the answer stopped between her teeth, but it was difficult to say.
Could it be because the figure in front of her lingers in her mind day and night?
As a girl's family, there are some things that are always difficult to talk about, not to mention that Hua Weiyang understands that Liu Xi at this time is no longer the Liu Xi who read a few books in the sun in the small courtyard; And she is not the carefree refuge woman.
The time in that small courtyard has long passed with the years, and in the end it can only be buried in the depths of the heart.
Today, both of them have different missions.
Leaned over and bowed to Fuhua Weiyang and said, "Childe, no matter what Father Khan did, the people of the grassland are innocent, if Gongzi can avoid this war, Helian can guarantee that the grassland will be obeyed by the king from now on." ”
The words are full of pleading, which makes people extremely unbearable to hear.
However, what moved Liu Xi the most was the four words 'obeyed by the king', if he only wanted to take the opportunity to act before he came, now he has greatly changed his mind.
Being able to pocket the entire grassland is one step closer to the opportunity for revenge.
Therefore, with almost no hesitation, Liu Xi nodded and responded, "Yes, I am willing to walk with you." ”
