Chapter 10: Flying Snow Shoots White Deer in the Sky (Part II)
By the time the snow was falling, it had slowly stopped. The moonlight in this era is much brighter than in Xu Yifan's era. Standing outdoors and looking overhead, I felt that the moon seemed to be closer to the ground than the original time and space.
The moonlight is bright, reflecting the snow all over the ground, illuminating the surrounding mountains and rivers in a gloomy and floating world.
Xu Yifan was reading by the lake with his hands behind his back, for a long time, and he didn't move.
Really...... I can't take it easy. With such a beautiful scenery, dozens of loyal subordinates silently guarded him in the heavy snow and cold. In the tent behind him, there are unheard of and unseen masters who are taken care of as housekeepers. Three beautiful flowers are waiting for them. No matter how he behaves, even if he has a surname like Li Xuan, he will try his best to follow his wishes.
Man has come to this point, and according to the thinking of his time, it is not a rich man to take a step back. Why bother and wait anxiously in the snow, waiting for a chance to survive in death?
It can only be said that this path is too tempting. As long as you go, you are absolutely reluctant to give up. How many great sages and sages, famous generals are bright. How many heroes in the 3,000-year-old history know how difficult it is to go down this road. has insight into the world, but he is reluctant to retreat.
When you have power, you can only seek more power. Most of the sinister storms that let this road drown themselves instead, but the only possibility of standing at the top and changing their fate makes everyone who sets foot on this road of no return crazy to the end!
His surname is gradually not as easy-going and careless as when he first arrived in this era...... When your words can make the difference between life and death, you are no longer your original self!
Xu Yifan suddenly rubbed his hands, only to find that although he was wearing a heavy fur, his hands and feet were already cold. When I woke up from my aimless contemplation, I didn't know where I was. The bright moon overhead is shining in the middle of the lake. Bright and straight to the heart.
There was a sudden sound behind him, and a cloak was already gently draped over his body. A pair of small hands were warm and warm and surprisingly comfortable to stick to his neck. Xu Yifan turned his head to look, and saw Li Xuan tilting his head to look at the bite mark on his neck. It doesn't look like it eats the fireworks of the world.
"Are the two girls secretly watching?"
"Well, poke your head inside the tent, for fear that I will confuse you and say something bad about them."
"Would you say?"
"I didn't bother to say that we can't communicate with each other......"
"That's it, you're a big house anyway. The amount of gas is larger, and the Qing Dynasty is such a rule, and no one is exempt from vulgarity. ”
"It's tiring to be with you...... Our Li family is like falling for an evil demon, and we will give you our lives. My dad, my brother ......"
"Your father, like me, embarked on this path, and was so tempted that he didn't want to turn back. Again, no one is exempt from vulgarity. ”
"What way?" Li Xuan tilted his head and asked.
Xu Yifan was silent with a smile, and suddenly the forest by the lake moved. Before Xu Yifan could react, two Goshha figures had already rushed over. Looking under the bright moonlight, I saw a pair of small white ears emerging from the bushes, followed by the head of an animal. Between the snow and the moon, the animal's coat seems to be whiter and softer than snow. Two large horns with forked branches.
A white deer!
The movements of the Goshkhas frightened the docile and timid animal. Immediately turned around and ran, and there was a sound of grass. Xu Yifan stared blankly at the place where the white deer disappeared, and suddenly raised his head to the sky.
Lose its deer, and the world will chase it together!
But that's it! It's just that he has one more traveler in the torrent of time!
Goshha, the two internal guards, also saw clearly that it was just a white deer, and was about to return to his guard position. Xu Yifan had already ordered loudly: "Catch up and bring me the deer ears back!" ”
He gave the order, and it was returned. The two Goshkha didn't think about it, and they didn't care whether they could outrun the beast or not, so they picked up their guns and pulled their legs and chased after them. Li Xuan pulled his arm: "I want to live!" To live! Xu Yifan just smiled and patted her hands.
Men's world, or don't let these women understand. It doesn't matter what role they will play in their own world.
When Li Xuan's eyes lit up, there was really movement outside the valley. A figure swished out behind Xu Yifan, and it seemed to be Chu Wanli. This guy, don't look more heartless than him, in fact, he is also extremely nervously waiting for news from Du Qilin's side. Plus a bad taste that loves to listen to the corners of his boss!
At this time, Xu Yifan didn't plan to care, so he pulled his legs and rushed towards the valley. As soon as his body moved, the cloak that Li Xuan had just put on him had already fallen on the snow. Li Xuan, who was behind him, picked up the cloak and looked at Xu Yifan's back, his expression was faint, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Xu Yifan and Chu Wanli rushed to the valley one after the other. Several Goshkha had already held down two figures. Xu Yifan was still a little far away, and he had already spoken: "Let go!" ”
The Goshkhas had already pressed them into the snow nest, where the two men struggled desperately. When he heard the order, he pulled them up, but he still pressed his arm and refused to let go. Xu Yifan took a closer look and took a closer look. I saw that they were two rough northern men, with beards and eyebrows almost all grown together. If you stir the snow powder again, you can't see what it looks like. Both of them were wearing leather jackets and carrying horse coats and bags. It's just that a person grows up a little bit and a person is stronger. Behind them was a Goshha, holding in his hand two short earthen guns with four fires that had been recovered from the two of them, and a small red dagger stuck in his leggings.
As soon as the two men pulled it up, they shouted in a low voice: "If I didn't know that you were the honored guests of our big boss, could we catch you?" Wearing a white cloak and thinking that others can't see it? What the hell! ”
Xu Yifan waved his hand, and a few Goshha just let go, and the arch guard who was still not at ease was beside Xu Yifan. The two men wiped their faces indiscriminately. Leaned side by side, just looking at Xu Yifan.
"You were sent by the Du family?"
The two men just didn't speak, took out a scrolled book from their arms, and handed it over. Xu Yifan then looked at it, it was the Ouyou heart video he wrote! Needless to say, this is the joint method that Jiang Junshi came up with, and they are the only ones who know that Xu Yifan secretly went to the Northeast! This Jiang Junshi is not only a little anxious, but also a little elegant.
Xu Yifan laughed, and handed the book to Chu Wanli, who also smiled. Xu Yifan spoke: "We are the honored guests of your Du Da family, the two of you will stop for a while, and then lead the way, right?" Will you be able to make it there when it is dawn? ”
The older man stared, and he probably didn't get angry: "We know which way you are?" Want to touch our Tianwang Mountain? Du Da said that he had to see his most precious thing to be considered a slipper! ”
Xu Yifan was a little stunned for a while, but Chu Wanli quietly turned around and went back, and brought a figure of Ping Ting over after a short pause. The figure looked at it by the moonlight, and it had already cried out, and flew over: "Uncle Chen, Uncle Dai!" ”
Chu Wanli brought it over, and it was naturally a cuckoo.
The two men had long lost the expression of horizontal eyebrows and raised eyes, and gently patted the cuckoo's head. originally looked like a fierce and vicious fighter, but now he is a kind elder who sees his little niece. Pulling the cuckoo's arm and looking at her carefully, he let go and clasped his fists and saluted Xu Yifan: "It's a sin not to know the three old and four young." You are our honored guest, we are all the way to the rescue of you, don't say much, the big boss is also in a hurry, let's set off immediately! ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The two people sent by Du Qilin are both one of the oldest brothers with Du Qilin. The one who grew up is called Chen Bin, and the sturdy one is called Dai Jun. They are all old horse thieves who have been outside the mouth for more than ten years, and they are fast and fast. When Du Qilin was arrested, they also followed Du Juan to the vicinity of Yanjing to beg for help, but they didn't see Xu Yifan, and Wang Wu placed them.
This time, Du Qilin was able to make a name for himself in Kanto so quickly, and he had to take revenge and become one of the few big poles outside the Guandong. In addition to his reputation for righteousness among horse thieves, the other thing is that the old brothers around him have not dispersed. It was revived after more than a year. This time, after Du Qilin also discussed with them, he felt that this career in the rivers and lakes was enough, although everyone was beautiful, but they were still afraid. Originally, the men in the rivers and lakes died, because there was no way out, and there were too many big bosses who had their heads cut off in Zhao'an. Du Qilin's baby daughter followed the minister of the Great Qing Dynasty, and these most trusted brothers knew it. Du Qilin proposed this way out, and everyone was happy. There are more people in the Qing Dynasty officialdom who follow the path of the red gate, and they don't care about being horse thieves anyway.
As soon as the identities of the two sides were paired, Xu Yifan, who was already in a hurry, and they immediately began to pack up and leave, and the group quickly tied up and got on the horse. Leaked overnight to the place where Du Qilin and they rested their horses.
During the day today, Du Qilin and the others moved closer to Xu Yifan and them for more than thirty miles. He rested in the tunzi of a Kanto grain household who had dealings. As soon as they received the news left by Li Xing in the Luozi Forest, they hurriedly sent someone to wait in the tunzi.
Under the moonlight, the road is clearly recognizable. A group of people and horses rushed forward. Xu Yifan's Goshha were divided into three groups, seven or eight people before and after, and more than a dozen people in the middle guarded Xu Yifan and his family, plus Dai Jun and Chen Bin, two heroes. The two Goshkha, who were chasing the deer, did not wait, but left a mark in the original camp to tell them where to go.
Snowy night weather, missing the night to rush is originally a chore. Especially for Li Xuan and the pair of North Korean twin girls who grew up in the deep palace compound who served her, but at this time, it is impossible to say. Let's hold it together, who wants your eldest lady to follow herself?
Chen Bin and Dai Jun, two old horse thieves, can see that they are extraordinary just by marching. Heavy snow already covered quite a landmark, and there was a white expanse around that made it impossible to distinguish the path. But they could easily find their way forward, and depending on the level of snow cover, they could tell whether the snow was falling into a ditch or a swamp mud. Always find the hardest and most convenient way to move forward!
The two men sat on their horses, and occasionally said a few words to the cuckoo, whose face was flushed with excitement. The rest of the time he sat on his horse with his eyes half-squinted, as if he were welded to it. As the horse's back swayed, he gave a vocal point when people were not going the right way.
Rao had these two right-hand guides, and he walked for more than three hours, but he only went out thirty miles. Thinking about the time when the two of them came here, they almost walked more than twice the distance, and the good horse thieves all the way have a reputation outside the mouth and Kanto, and sure enough, under the fame, there are no vain!
Xu Yifan and Chu Wanli realized this almost at the same time, sitting on horseback, the two glanced at each other. They all nodded quietly, Xu Yifan made a look, Chu Wanli nodded and leaned towards them. He has a familiar temper, and he greets him when he is far away: "It's fucking frozen like a popsicle, and there is wine, why don't you come a little bit?" ”
Dai Jun Chen Bin glanced back at him, and then looked at Chu Wanli coming over with a smile. Both of them understood Xu Yifan's identity, and Chu Wanli was also faintly one of the leaders in this group of people, and both of them spoke politely, although they couldn't say Taiwen's kind words, but their voices could be lowered: "Third elder, don't dare to be polite." You can't drink too much alcohol when you walk on the snowy road, and after the burn, you will come up from the inside, and you can't stand it. Wine is kept in a hurry. ”
Chu Wanli leaned over and said a few words. He just has this natural ability, and he can immediately make love with the other party, and as soon as a few colored jokes are opened, he seems to have secretly said Li Xuan, a foreign woman with light blue eyes and chestnut hair. Anyway, the cuckoo listened to it and laughed secretly, looking dark. The three of them were as enthusiastic as their own brothers.
After a long time, Chu Wanli smiled and said, "Two, how are our subordinates?" ”
Dai Jun and Chen Bin glanced at each other, it seemed that the person named Chen Bin was more thoughtful, and his eloquence was a little better, and he smiled: "Strong!" The officers and soldiers have seen a lot, but they have never seen anyone who listens to orders like this, and their hands and feet are fast. When he pounced on the two of us, he was sacrificing his life! Admire! ”
Chu Wanli smiled lightly: "Needless to say, I can't compare to the two of you just walking at night." What are the shortcomings, say it happily, what do men do like little daughters-in-law with open faces? ”
Before Chen Bin could speak, Dai Jun had already spoken, and it was estimated that the anger held down by the Goshha had not yet been cleared: "I won't be able to do it right away!" Cooking horses, cleaning things slowly, hands and feet are raw, and lo and behold, all legs are straight! What is like an old horseman? Wearing a white cloak to put the light and dark patrol sentry, the bright sentry does not say, the dark sentry does not stay in the snow nest for half a day without moving, what else do you want? I saw it eight miles away. The kung fu of the horse team will come and go like the wind, and when it appears, it will be like a ghost, and the sentinels will be diligent and will run patiently...... They are probably a good foot team, a good horse team...... Not! ”
Chu Wanli just smiled, the two looked at Chu Wanli without the slightest displeasure, and looked at each other again, but Chen Bin said tentatively: "Brother Chu...... If we return to the official family, what kind of official can the big boss reward? Look at our brothers, what kind of errand can you reward? Speaking of the big boss and Xu ...... Lord Xu is also a family, how can you say this......"
Chu Wanli still smiled and didn't speak for a long time. laughed so hard that Chen Bin and Dai Jun looked at each other. After a long while, Chu Wanli slowly lowered his face, stretched out his hand and pointed at the surrounding Goshha: "...... You say that our soldiers are not able to work hard and endure the cold...... But as long as the adults give an order, they will immediately lie on their stomachs in the snow for a night, and they will not be allowed to go down the ground for ten days and half a month on horses, and they will carry out the order without any consideration! The army is a place where orders are forbidden, and the first thing you need to understand is this! It's easy to talk about personal feelings, and when the military order is given, the old man has no affection to talk about! “
Dai Jun and Chen Bin's faces immediately changed, and they just didn't speak with calm faces.
Chu Wanli amplified his voice: "Du Qilin took you to fight for half your life, what is it for?" Just happy revenge? It's just that in the middle of nowhere, I want to take my brothers to live a little like a man. The name of Du Da's righteousness is known in the world, what do you get? Under the command of our adults, as long as there is a little talent, it will not be buried, and as long as you work hard, you will have a future. The premise is that you are willing to endure all these constraints! When I followed the adults, I was just a thousand generals, and now I am a general soldier with the rank of commander! A dignified red-topped second-class member! Tens of thousands of people obey me!
Fame and wealth, and other idle things...... But all good men have to be loyal and exchange their lives for their lives! If you can survive, you can start a family, and you will have a future, and your children will no longer bear the name of a thief, the son of a dignified official eunuch...... Such an opportunity is fleeting, whether you want to grasp it or not, it is up to you! ”
Chu Wanli spoke impassionedly, but the Goshkha people who were walking beside him didn't seem to have heard, they didn't leave their positions at all, and they didn't look at this side, they just continued to move forward in silence. This is already an army completely armed with modern discipline, not just stragglers armed with Western firearms. The training they had experienced was so severe that in the eyes of the Prussians it was considered unnecessary and excessive, and they had long since made obedience to orders a matter of course, and never thought about what was behind the orders of the superiors.
Wrapped in such a team, Dai Jun and Chen Bin were obviously shuddering, but their hearts were hot.
Xu Yifan in the distance quietly rolled his eyes, what Chu Wanli said would be something that these horse thieves could understand. Whitewashing is just the cause, taking fame and wealth, and tempting them to start a family is a good pie. For the rest, let's talk about it slowly in the future, not afraid that they will not be in the Praetorian Guard group. It's not so easy to get down on a thief ship......
…… It's just that Chu Wanli, this guy, thinks the same as he said?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The long journey did not stop until it was dusk. Everyone was already sleepy, and Li Xuan was almost lying on the horse, with starry eyes. It was still under Xu Yifan's signal that the cuckoo who grew up on horseback and Chen Luoshi, who had a first-class body, reluctantly supported her left and right, and only then did she persist until now. As for those two little North Korean girls, it's good to be able to keep themselves from falling. I gritted my teeth and didn't dare to say anything.
Xu Yifan himself is choked enough, and his inner thighs are hot. However, he didn't see Du Qilin for a while, and when he got things done, he couldn't put his mind at ease for a while. Zhang Yu rode a horse or left or right to follow him, this half-old guy, don't look dead, it's like sticking to the back of a horse, as if he was napping all the time. Equestrian skills are surprisingly good, but Xu Yifan has long been too lazy to guess how much kung fu he still has as a housekeeper.
I could see two white hills rising in front of me, sandwiching a path in between. The hills are sparse and sparse with pine forests. When Dai Jun and Chen Bin saw this, they reported to Xu Yifan loudly: "My lord! After this, there will be six or seven miles to the place where the head of the house is Xiema! Hurry over, maybe even catch breakfast! ”
These two people have unconsciously changed their names to adults, and it seems that Chu Wanli's words are not useless. Xu Yifan smiled in his heart, propped up his sore back and looked at it. It's all blocked by the pine forest on the hill, and you can't see it in the distance. It's just that something moves, and if you look closely, it's a fucking white deer again!
I saw it last night, and it was the same as what God was revealing to him, and now I see that Xu Yifan just wants to taste venison! He beckoned to Goshha beside him, and immediately handed over a carbine. The gun was still wrapped in Goshha's arms just now, and it didn't freeze. Pulling the chamber open, five round-headed 79 rounds of yellow Zhengzheng were lying well in the nest of the leaky bottom bullets.
Look at the white deer again, it seems that it is still looking for leaves in the bushes that have not been covered by the snow. Xu Yifan raised his gun to aim, but for some reason, his breathing became short.
Eliminate its deer, and the world will chase it away...... If this deer is hit, the path that has been taken against the grain will be ......
He gritted his teeth and fired, and a crisp gunshot echoed through the vast snowfield, shaking the pine forest into a snow mist. Xu Yifan's eyes widened, and he seemed to clearly see the bullet cutting through the arc-shaped trajectory, which was sinking into the back of the white deer's head!
This deer, I am determined to win!
With the sound of this gunshot, dozens of snow caves suddenly appeared on the two hillocks, and figures appeared one by one, each with a foreign gun in their hands. Gunfire erupted, and a rain of bullets rained down like snow on the front team that was already walking between the hills!
(To be continued)
