Chapter 23: A Reed Crossing the River Divides the North and South (Part II)

Gao Cheng did not wear a sword because he entered Tongtai Temple with his master Bodhidharma today, and at this time he still calmly, calmly, and very calmly watched the people in front of him force him over one by one.

In the reeds in the distance, Xiao Zhengde, the king of Liang Guolinhe, and the Marquis Jing of Puyang, the secretary of the Wei State Department, stood side by side. Hou Jing was calm, while Xiao Zhengde seemed to be even more excited.

"Duke Puyang, how about using your people to kill the heir of your Great Wei real power?" Xiao Zhengde was a little too excited to say anything, and looked at Hou Jing with a smile on his face.

"King Linhe's words are wrong, I just hope that the north and the south are safe, and I can't get used to him provoking the Southern Dynasty so much. King Linhe should know that I also respect the monarch of the Southern Dynasty in my heart. Hou Jing's words were ambiguous, and he would never leave others a little bit of his own handle.

"Yes, yes, I know, I know." Xiao Zhengde agreed with a big grin.

There is laughter over there, and murderous here.

Several black-clothed men drew their swords together and pointed at Gao Cheng. As soon as the wind passed, Gao Cheng knew that these people really wanted to take his life. Fortunately, he grew up in the military camp since he was a child, and with his father's conquest and killing for a long time, his martial arts are not inferior. Although it is very difficult to fight five or six enemies, it is not enough to be killed immediately.

Xiao Zhengde smiled at the cold iron blades flying, and smiled at Hou Jing, "Duke Puyang, look at this prince, how long can he support him?" ”

Hou Jingji said calmly, "It can't be made into a vessel." Hou Jing said slowly, and it seems that he has already seen through the ending.

You come and go, after all, there are many people, and all of them have good martial arts, even if Gao Cheng has the ability, it is difficult for the enemy to be powerful, not to mention that none of them are weaker than him. Gradually, he was defeated, and finally he couldn't dodge with a sword, and a sharp sound of "hiss" passed, and his left shoulder was already torn and bloody.

Xiao Zhengde and Hou Jing were like watching the trapped beast fight, just waiting for the final result.

Several black-clothed men surrounded Gao Cheng, raising their swords to each other.

"Lou Zihui takes the sword!" Suddenly, a crisp and heroic female voice broke through the air.

Gao Cheng saw that a sword had flown towards him through the human wall, he jumped up with great agility to catch the sword, and stabbed at the black-clothed man in front of him who was distracted by the sudden situation.

"Yang Kan's daughter?!" Xiao Zhengde looked at it silently, very surprised, and couldn't help but whisper.

Hou Jing's chest fluctuated, and his eyes were full of hatred, but in the end, he still went down.

"Puyang Gong, ...... this matter?" Xiao Zhengde hesitated.

"It's a long time coming." Hou Jing's face was calm, "Today's things may not be the case tomorrow." ”

"And you ordered them to withdraw?" Xiao Zhengde didn't seem to quite understand what Hou Jing meant.

"No, you have to do it beautifully if you swallow what you say." Hou Jing turned around and said, "Let's go!" ”

Yang Shunhua jumped from his horse with a sword, jumped over the wall of the man in black, and landed directly beside Gao Cheng, who was surrounded by the group.

Gao Cheng held his sword and was silent for a moment, his eyes gradually moistened, he had never paid so much attention to any woman. But he only said lightly, "Why do you want to come?" "We all know each other's identities, and it's really helpless. If you come, you may be injured and killed, and it will involve the family and the country.

Yang Shunhua also had tears in her eyes, looked at Gao Cheng, and also held her sword at each other, "Yes, why do you want to come?" Her voice seemed choked. Originally, the two of them, one south and one north, had nothing to do with each other, so why did you go far into Jiankang from Luoyang? When she saw the wound on Gao Cheng's left shoulder at a glance, she only felt that her heart was even more painful, but she looked the same as before, just like Gao Cheng's face was cold and ruthless when he first met her. The shot was extremely fast, and he had already stabbed his sword at the black-clothed masked man. I don't want to think about anything, even if it's the end of my life.

The two of them are still invincible after all.

"You go." Gao Cheng shouted to Yang Shunhua as he tried his best to resist. It's too late to go.

"If you're here, why go?" Yang Shunhua had no intention of doing so. It's too late, it's too late.

Waiting, it's terrifyingly quiet.

When Yuwentai galloped over and jumped down, he only heard Yang Shunhua's words. He was burning inside, and he only felt that he was suffering badly.

Yang Shunhua and Gao Cheng both saw Yuwentai.

"Brother Black Otter!" Gao Cheng was surprised and delighted. Originally, this person was neither friend nor foe in his heart, but when he saw him come to save him at this moment, he felt closer.

The taste in Yang Shunhua's heart is much more complicated than Gao Cheng's. Avoiding the black otter's burning gaze, he only carefully protected Gao Cheng, who was obviously slightly distracted, so that he would not be injured by the sword. All these black otters are in sight.

"The generals of the Guanxi Daxingtai He Bayue, the Xingtai Zuocheng, and the Fu Sima Yuwentai have seen the prince." Yu Wentai said that he had already drawn his sword in his hand, and he still looked at Yang Shunhua with burning eyes and did not leave for a moment. Rather than letting Hou Jing explain his identity and make people misunderstand that he and Hou Jing are one, it is more appropriate to explain it himself.

Suddenly there was silence.

Gao Cheng, Yang Shunhua, and the black-clothed warriors who wanted to put Gao Cheng to death all calmed down.

"You're Yuwentai?" Gao Cheng was obviously a little surprised. In the moonlight, the sweat on his face like mutton fat and jade condensed, there were some doubts in his beautiful green eyes, and his delicate eyebrows frowned slightly. A few strands of hair brushed on the face, and people couldn't bear to look away from their eyes.

"Yes." Yu Wentai's eyes looked at Yang Shunhua, as if he was asking for her forgiveness, but his eyes were firm, making people feel that he was a person who could be trusted and given a sense of security.

Yang Shunhua turned his face sideways expressionlessly.

The strangest thing was that several black-clothed warriors were also hesitant.

"General Yuwen is really powerful...... Gao Cheng said loudly, as if he was smiling but not laughing, and the majesty of a moment made people feel ever-changing and unfathomable.

"Shizi! Shizi! There was a shout in the distance.

It was actually Hou Jing who came with many people galloping.

Several black-clad masked warriors looked around, and the leader of them shouted, "Go!" "A few people are about to leave.

Hou Jing has already led people to Gao Cheng's side and dismounted, "Hou Jing was ordered by the prime minister to come south to protect the prince and return to Wei." ”

"Take it all for me." Gao Cheng's face was cold, and the sword in his hand flew towards a black-clothed warrior who wanted to leave. hit his vest and fell to the ground with a cry of pain and died. Gao Cheng didn't look back, but the action of his sword touched the wound on his shoulder, Xu because the pain was too great, he frowned, and seemed to clench his teeth.

Several black-clothed warriors seemed to understand at this time, and hurriedly scattered and fled for their lives.

"Follow the order of the prince and take down the party members of Xiao Zhengde, the king of Linhe." Hou Jing led people to chase after him and drifted away.

On the other side, Chen Yuankang and Cui Jishu, who had just chased here and were hidden in the dark, looked at Hou Jing who was far away.

"Let the Puyang County Duke take the lead again." Cui Jishu lengthened his voice and whispered to Chen Yuankang. With that, he was about to walk over to Gao Cheng.

"Uncle is right and slow." Chen Yuankang commanded slowly, "You don't have to tell the prince in advance about this. and thou shalt not let the prince know that I have come, and thou shalt not reveal my whereabouts to any man. ”

"Why?" Cui Jishu was surprised.

"You are in the light, I am in the dark, I will follow you all the way back to Luoyang, but the prince of the world will be foolproof." Chen Yuankang's voice is like a golden stone, and he is loud.

Thinking so carefully and calmly, he is a person who can do great things. Cui Jishu also accepted a little bit of jokes. Only said one sentence, "General Chen rest assured." ”

The riverside was finally quiet again. It's just that the night is too short, and the sky is gradually showing the dawn.

"Since the son is safe, I can't bother, so please resign." Yang Shunhua was already cold-faced and cold-hearted at this time.

The distance between the south and the north is not only the Yangtze River, which is separated by a strip of water. When he turned around, he was facing Yu Wentai, who was standing quietly and waiting, his eyes were heavy, and he just refused to let her go.

Yang Shunhua avoided his gaze, and his face was still calm.

"Wait a minute...... "Behind him, Gao Cheng called in a low voice.

She didn't turn back, and she didn't want to. His voice was low and a little hoarse, but it had never been gentle.

Seeing that she didn't want to look back, Gao Cheng seemed to be a little hesitant, but he still walked a few steps slowly until he walked behind her and looked at her back. Knowing that his life was in danger, he was willing to abandon his family and country and save him with a sword, how could he not understand this affection.

"Lou Zihui, you are a humble person in North Korea, I am a Han from the Southern Dynasty, with the Yangtze River as the boundary, I only hope that you will never commit a crime in the south after crossing the river today, but I hope to see each other indefinitely."

Gao Cheng was about to speak, but was suddenly blocked by Yang Shunhua. The voice was crisp but the tone was cold, I didn't expect her to be so resolute. Gao Cheng only felt that the love in his heart was like a surging river, and the waves were originally surging, but they hit the cliff bank and turned back. He was stunned at first, and then quickly laughed at himself, "That's very good...... So good......"

"Lord Lang! Lord Lang! At this time, Cui Jishu's voice came from far and near. In the blink of an eye, Cui Jishu had already rushed to the front, and hurriedly saluted, "Lord Lang, the boat is ready, please hurry up and board the boat to cross the river." ”

Seeing Cui Jishu rushing to his eyes, Gao Cheng's heart turned into anger at this moment, and shouted angrily, "Are you still willing to come back to see me?" What are you still doing with your lord? Just go yourself. ”

Cui Jishu understood in his heart that he didn't dare to refute, so he could only bow his head and obey the order, and let Gao Cheng be willful.

"That's it, let's leave it at that." Gao Cheng looked up to the sky and sighed. After that, Cui Jishu led him to the riverside boat.

Yuwentai watched Yang Shunhua stand in place without saying a word, his back to Gao Cheng, and his eyes were full of tears.
