A black shadow speeding by on the right leaped through the rain and struck straight towards Huang Chun. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

The wind swept the dense rain, and the merchant ships and the people escorting the warships on the shore were all staring blankly at the fierce battle on the shore, unaware that the five sail artillery warships on their sides had already been swept through, and through the dense rain and wind, the sky was dark and lonely.

"That's not the prince, it's the prince's military doctor, this is the herbs and veins that come with it," General Pu wiped away the rain that had fallen into his mouth along his beard, and galloped to help Huang Chun. I also hurriedly flicked my whip and ran after it. But a long roar of rhino horns was heard, and then the deafening sound of cannon on the shore came to my ears. The battle line is getting longer and longer, and the fighting is becoming more and more disorganized in the wind and rain, and it is a melee scene with blood.

The warship had already burned into a fireball, but fortunately most of the soldiers had already landed to escort and participate in the battle, otherwise, I really don't know how the casualties would have been.

And the Luo Wei warrior general who was dressed in green armor and had two rhinoceros horns on his helmet resisted Huang Chun from his back as a chest, and threw a Tang knife in one hand and danced out of the air to bypass Huang Chun for two weeks to catch it with his chest, and for a while Huang Chun was unavoidable, and the Japanese general suddenly swept across the battle formation with a spear posture, and immediately swept Huang Chun, and then commanded the Luo Wei battle array to retreat towards the sail artillery warship on the shore.

Seeing this, I was in a hurry, and I could no longer have the slightest consideration and turn, I blocked the Luo Wei Shi clan on my side, leaned over and rushed straight towards the Luo Wei strange armor of the warrior swept Huang Chun's galloping war horse, the Luo Wei warriors on my side stabbed at me one after another, and the cold light of the sword handles was like a tongue of fire, shining with a dazzling light like death.

Or at that time, no one noticed that Huang Chun, who was lying on the mount of the general, had his lips chattering, as if he had a question with the general.

"Crossbowmen, prepare, release the arrows-" General Pu behind him immediately commanded the team to turn the team and ordered to cover. Two rows of armoured crossbowmen stepped out of the middle and began to fire arrows.

This General Pu has always been a general in charge of heavy grain and grass, because he is also a little older, and he is the eldest brother of Concubine Pu, he does not often come to the battlefield on weekdays, but at this time he is also quite a general, calmly with a kind of awe-inspiring majesty. Unfortunately, I couldn't hold back the battle, and because of the heavy rain, it was difficult to see, and I thought in my heart, I was already gradually approaching the mounts of the Japanese general and Huang Chun.

I leaped into the air, rolled onto the general's mount, and pushed Huang Chun out.

With a huge shock from behind me being hit by the Tang knife, my five organs trembled violently, and when I turned around, I grabbed the samurai Tang Dao on my side and stabbed a samurai with a backhand. In an instant, I added another force and pushed Huang Chun towards my mount, "Hurry upβ€”"

Huang Chun's mournful and hesitant gaze flashed, and then he raised his two long-handled Yunshan axes, slashed through one piece with a "stab" and "click" sound, and galloped out.

And the Luo Wei warrior behind him was already ready to slash with a palm. In an instant, I was knocked unconscious, plunged into a bottomless ocean of darkness. The flames and crossbow arrows on his side were no longer conscious.

……

When I woke up, I was tied up in a dark bilge with the military medical officer who had been seeing Prince Jing all the time, and only the feeling of rising and falling with the waves told us that we were on the boat.

When I woke up, the medical officer was still asleep. As the cabin got used to the darkness of the eternal night, I gradually saw his face, only to see that his face was pale, and there was a pool of blood under his body.

I was at once in a great hurry, but my hands were tied behind my back, and I could not move, so I twisted my body, twisted to the side of the wall, and hooked the hook of the hatch to the rope of my handsβ€”it was dangerous, but fortunately, it was not an iron cable, but a hemp rope. I twisted my body repeatedly to grind the hemp rope off my hand, and hurried to the side of the medical officer to check it.

However, there were wounds all over his body, and the flesh and blood were unrecognizable from the debris of iron and lead powder. I reached out and felt the pulse, but it was already very weak. I tried to wake him up, but he was still asleep, and his peaceful appearance seemed to have gone to another world. I reached out and pinched his man, shaking him, but it seemed to be in vain, and all I could do seemed to be waiting for him to go to the place where there would never be war in a safe dream.

The medical officer looked to be fifty years old, his long hair was splattered with blood, his gray beard and dark red blood bloomed on his chest, he probably still had a lot of emotions to put him in, maybe he still had a lot of dreams to put in nowhere, maybe there were still many loves and hates to pour out, but it was all over. In this small, closed cabin of eternal night, in the midst of the bumpy road of the waves, in this world where it is impossible to know what you are really going to do and whether you can really die.

For some reason, at the moment when his breathing ended peacefully, I suddenly sat down in a pool of blood and darkness like a long-suppressed child, as if I had seen the death of Prince Jing with my own eyes, and cried uncontrollably.

I don't know how long I cried, I don't know how long I slept, but I woke up again. In this dark place, and a corpse that died peacefully, next to it, there is a large black clay urn containing fresh water that can be used to drink water with its head.

I turned around and touched the armor on my back that had been punctured, and suddenly I felt a heart shield behind me between my tentacles. Suddenly, I suddenly remembered the scene where Huang Chun had stuffed something behind me, and there was a slight warm current in my heart, thinking that this thing still saved my life after all.

Then he took off the heart shield and held it in his hand, and groped his palm through the engraved pattern, the warm current and smile froze for a moment, and the boundless chill in his heart suddenly rushed to his heart.

I hurriedly touched it a few more times, and looked at the pattern on the back of the heart shield for a long time, and the angular and inconspicuous missing iron anchor carved in the bottom of the barren heart......

In a secret conversation at the Xue family ancestral hall the night before I left Xinyue, my father said that if I could gain a firm foothold in Beiming and be helpful, someone would use this sign to inform me to start cooperating with the action, and before that, I must maintain neutrality in all my actions, even for the rest of my life......

Suddenly, my body leaning against the wall fell down as softly as if I had lost my bones, and my heart was floating in the ocean in an instant, and I didn't know what to do.

"Why?" I muttered to myself.

I thought I could at least stay out of it, I thought this cruel day wouldn't come, but I was just a self-righteous teenager.

But what makes me feel even more frightened is that Huang Chun, it is Huang Chun, he is the most proud disciple in his life arranged by his father in Xinyue. Yes, Huang Chun, take apart the name, Jingjin Shui...... Yes, Huang Chun, from the beginning...... However, when I found out about Xing Qiuyan, I easily turned all my attention, but I ignored that Xing Qiuyan must be someone from the Xinyue Emperor, not someone arranged by my father for the Xinyue Emperor. Huang Chun –

If Huang Chun is strategic, Prince Jing has no physiology, why, why is it Huang Chun?

Fu Yannian, Fu Yannian, where is your mind?

I muttered to myself, cried and laughed, and the confusion, hesitation, and despair that I had never felt in my life and the sobriety, passion, and hope that I had never felt before, the two emotions seemed to me in my heart as if heaven and man were at war. I looked back at the many people and things from beginning to end, drew a few names on the ground, erased them, and finally collapsed completely on the ground, facing the sky on my back.

I see.

Helpless.

……

In a jolt, the ship docked. Blindfolded by a black cloth, I was sent into a place with the many ordnance movements and footsteps on my side. The black cloth in front of me was removed, and I was already in a simple and elegant room with ink and blue hanging walls on all sides, and brocade screens were placed twice on the east and west. Leaning on a tatami mat cushion, the table in front of him is a simple cod soup and caviar sushi, riding in a green lotus leaf cup floating on a white porcelain bowl painted with a floating tu, next to the Junshan celadon bowl floating in the jade Lantern Festival, each delicate and small, a bowl of white rice in a low porcelain bowl with two ears on the side. It's ordinary, but it's very clean and refreshing.

I smiled bitterly, sat down, picked up the spoon and chopsticks that were placed on the brown chopsticks and puffers on the right side, and ate them in one bite.

Fan Yingming's paper pear blossom swirl wood was pushed open, a dark blue with blue striped tie-dyed wide robes and wide sleeves, hanging with Japanese knives and flints, short, strong limbs, vigorous blood, red face Luo Wu warrior pushed the door in, closed the door again, sat down on the opposite side, with a hoarse voice, in a slightly lame New Yue dialect and said: "Mr. Jing, I have been wronged all the way. My lord is also a last resort, the general is very suspicious of my lord, this time sent an envoy to Beiming to discuss peace has already revealed traces, and it is necessary to kill all of them. The lord had to 'invite' the gentleman to come, and I waited for the long term. ”

As I listened, I rinsed my mouth with the tea from the black lacquered mahogany cup next to me, wiped my hands again, and looked at each other and looked up and down with a meaningful look. After a long time, he nodded and smiled reluctantly.

"The lord has prepared clothes and bath soup for Mr. But I'm afraid that the matter is not secret, and the lord also asked Mr. in this courtyard not to go out at will. He narrowed his eyes warmly, his small eyes in the same four arcs as his two raised mustaches, and nodded vigorously as he spoke to me.

I smiled wryly again and nodded my head again.

He bowed and went out the door.

When he heard him walk to the door, he spoke in a thick Satsuma clan accent, and without any shying away from what I heard, he told the servants and samurai in the courtyard in a big way, "Watch him, if there is any change, kill him." ”

"Hey!" The voice of promise was crisp and powerful.

Then there was the sound of hurried footsteps.

The appearance is different, and the appearance of Shi Qi Shi Gong makes me feel that this person is a little funny, but the boulder in my heart is still there, and I really can't laugh at all.

He called me Mr. Jing because he thought I was Jing Jinshui, so didn't the Luo Wei warrior general who went to capture people honestly confess the matter of capturing Huang Chun, that is, Jing Jinshui's attempt, and capturing the wrong person?

Huang Chun turned out the token at this time, which means that I must act according to his wishes, does that mean that I will replace his identity as Jing Jinshui and secretly negotiate peace with the Tokugawa Shogun, the head of the four careerists of Luo Wei?

I was full of suspicions, but I didn't want to ask too much, so I had to call the maid outside the door in Luo Wei language.

The wooden door was pushed open, and the servant came in and gave a salute. She looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a pair of red phoenix eyes, crimson round earlobes exposed in her black hair, wearing a colorful flower cluster of new Japanese kimonos, a white neck exposed at the neckline, a smooth and smooth round shoulder with a handkerchief, she looked very lively and innocent, and her speech was crisp and neat, and her soft smile hid her strength and agility. ”

I returned the salute and got up and went out with her.

Passing through the low walls of the verandah on both sides, and going to an open courtyard at the back, you can see two or three small hugging houses with the traditional appearance of the phoenix wing type Luo Wei in a row, with a sparse bamboo ring and green, flowing water murmuring, and a light breeze passing through, there is already a trace of spring.

The buildings are all Kyoto-style, and the red oval filigree folded lanterns under the eaves of the front corridor are swaying with the sea breeze, and the fish mouths painted are displayed in the courtyard. On both sides of the wall, the shadow wall on both sides of the corridor wall "Riding the wind and waves will be sometimes" The sea and sky fishing song hanging paintings are the background of Xinyue ink, only two or three colors are different from the Xinyue ink, but I feel that the aroma is very rich.

The trees in the garden have not budded at this time, just a row of dwarf and dense branches, and the maid with clogs in the courtyard is dragging the small broken steps with affection and sound, and there is "The boat sings through the big island" in the distance, and I want to be pregnant with the father? The Genji singer sang Kankan songs, which made people fly through the night-like cabin, and couldn't help but think of the sinister turmoil in the Chikuzen Kanesaki Strait, and couldn't help but miss Qin Qing and his children, as well as the warm family life that seemed to be a lifetime away.
