Section XXVI

There was a killing image in the drum, extremely hard, and the sound of the piano was peaceful and neutral, as if it was whispering, softly persuading. The two tones were entangled for a while, the drum "bang", a drum beat, it was unruly, the sound was getting higher and higher, and the sound of the piano was desperately harmonious, but it was already a little difficult to continue.

Wu Ming was taken aback, although he didn't know who the person who played the drum was, but listening to the sound of the drum, his breath was condensed but not dispersed, and he saw a murderous aura, he was clearly a high-level martial artist, Xiaoqing was just an ordinary woman, if he was entangled in death, he would have to be hurt by his true anger. He was in a hurry, and he didn't care about the abruptness, he took out the short Xiao from his arms, put it to his lips, and the high-pitched and loud Xiao voice suddenly sounded in the night sky.

The sound of the drums was getting higher and higher, gradually becoming the wind and sea rain, and it was impossible to resist the momentum, and the sound of the piano was struggling to support the drums, almost low in a line, and seemed to be about to be cut off. The sudden addition of the flute sound, both of them seemed to be surprised, and they couldn't help but pause, and that's all, the sound of the piano continued to sound again, with joy.

Wu Ming put the flute to his lips and hurried towards the city. From afar, I saw Zhu Yuqing Yingying sitting at the head of the city, with a graceful posture, and her slender and slender ten fingers fluttering up and down on the piano surface. And in the middle of the city, He Dubo was shirtless, holding a slapper and using a war drum to fight him.

Different from the joy of the sound of the qin, the sound of the drum seemed to be very annoyed by the horizontal insertion of the sound of the flute, and the sound of "dong" sounded, and the sound of the piano was abandoned, and the sound of the flute came directly to the sound of the flute, and the two sounds were twisted together, and it was difficult to distinguish for a while. The two are like two red-eyed monsters, murderous and refusing to give in to each other. The night wind was stimulated by it, and it seemed to be much more violent, rolling up a lot of dust, dancing all over the sky, and the city head was even more hunting.

Although Wu Ming is more powerful than He Dubo, he is not proficient in the study of music and rhythm, and He Dubo uses war drums to make sounds, and he occupies the advantage of equipment to some extent, so he can't help it for a while, and when he walked in front of the two, he already felt that it was difficult to continue. Just a little unable to get off the stage, but the drums were stopped, and gradually came down, obviously seeing Wu Ming, He Dubo didn't want to entangle anymore, and lost his manners.

Most of the Western musical instruments are erhu, drums, etc., and these soldiers are unfamiliar with the qin of Jiangnan and the flute of Wu Ming. Now I can see the softness of the guqin and the loud sound of the flute. , all dumbfounded. The moon had risen, but the soldiers around them were still dreaming, unable to do it themselves.

At the head of the city, the soldiers on patrol held spears in their hands, and they were also fascinated by the listening, as if they were in a dream.

The music faded away, as if the two sides had withdrawn their troops after the war. The sound of the flute and piano gradually became a stream, as if whispering. And the drums beat low, but they roared like wild beasts, and wanted to fight again.

He Dubo put the blow down, "snapped", and hit each other with both palms. said with a smile: "Jiuwen grandpa and his wife are proficient in music and rhythm, they are an enviable fairy couple, and when I see them today, they are even more famous." Luckily!"

Wu Ming walked up to Zhu Yuqing and stood still, removed the short flute from his lips, and Fang smiled and said, "It's just blowing and blowing, I'm afraid of insulting the prince." ”

He Dubo shook his head, stared at the short flute in Wu Ming's hand and said straightly: "Is the musical instrument that Grandpa used just now the flute that has been popular in the northwest recently?" Can you show me? ”

This short flute was stuffed to him by Wu Ming's father when he got on the plane. Although Xiao is ordinary, but to him, it is like a treasure, and he can't help but be stunned when he hears He Dubo say this.

He Dubo was in front of him, but he looked at his hesitation carefully, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's Xiao Wang who is ...... abruptly" In his words, he was very embarrassed.

Wu Ming was taken aback, and hurriedly handed him the flute and said, "If the prince wants to see it, he has nothing to do." ”

He Dubo took it and played with it carefully for a long time before returning it to Wu Mingdao: "Sure enough, this instrument is exactly the same as the one recorded in the ancient books. ”

Recorded in ancient books? Wu Ming couldn't help but be stunned: "Can the prince tell the kid that he has seen such a record there?" ”

He Dubo seemed to have slipped his mouth, and hurriedly remedied: "Specific? Ha, I'm afraid I'll disappoint my grandfather, and Xiao Wang doesn't know. He looked up to the sky and snorted, and said to him: "The sound of the Virgin Piano is soft, which makes people feel calm, and it also has the demeanor of everyone. ”

At this time, Zhu Yuqing stood up and saluted: "The prince's drum skills are also a must, but the killing spirit is too heavy, and I have been scattered in the end, and it is difficult to continue, if it is not for the husband to arrive, this ugliness will be lost, how to talk about everyone's demeanor?" ”

This sounds like a compliment, but in fact, it is also a disguised accusation, He Dubo lowered his head, and only raised his head after a while: "Although Xiao Wang is coarse, he is not an ignorant person. Our Lady, you are admonishing me in a different way, but this king, in his throne, must be responsible for hundreds of thousands of people. Now that Persia is powerful, if this king chooses to be strong and serves, it is also a last resort, and I hope it is not to blame. ”

He turned his head and looked out of the city, stunned. The night wind was fierce, the Persian camp was brightly lit, and from time to time there were spear soldiers walking by, occasionally with one or two horse neighings, his voice gradually became cold like the night wind, and he said coldly: "I respect the virtuous couple, and I also miss the care of the He family in the northwest for many years, so I will not embarrass the noble couple." Tomorrow, you guys will go in a hot air balloon, and don't say anything else. ”

Is he chasing customers? Wu Ming's heart sank, let himself go, and said it nicely, what about the tens of thousands of camel battalion soldiers in the country? Do you want to leave it alone? But if you turn your face with He Dubo, the situation is even worse. At that moment, he almost wanted to use force, but as soon as he saw the large group of soldiers around him, he dispelled this thought. Although He Dubo refused, he did not say too much, obviously he was still concerned about Governor He's illness, leaving room for improvement.

But the city wall is heavily guarded, at this time, whether you can catch the lord of the dust country remains to be said, but the chaos at the head of the city is certain, if Persia takes advantage of the chaos to attack, resulting in the loss of the city, it will be self-defeating.

※※※ and He Dubo had a troublesome parting, the husband and wife had no interest in staying, and walked down the stairs, the night was very deep, but the moon in the sky was frighteningly big, miserable and white, and the hustle and bustle around gradually faded away, only the "beep" sound of torches on the city wall was heard. Seeing Wu Ming's gloomy face, Zhu Yuqing sighed: "Ah Ming, I'm really sorry that I couldn't convince Lord He to share your worries and solve your problems." ”

Wu Ming looked at the sky, in the east, the moon was covered by thick clouds, the sky darkened, and the stars in the sky suddenly brightened a lot. He looked at the sky and said, "Lord He has a lot of respect for Governor He, and I only hope that Governor He can take advantage of the medicine as soon as possible, so that things can turn around, otherwise it will ......"

Zhu Yuqingxiu frowned, and said softly: "Ah Ming, marching and fighting is not a child's play, and it is even more impossible to avoid medical treatment, the so-called defeat before victory, haven't you considered it, if Governor He is really seriously injured and dies, what should we do?" ”

Wu Ming's face became even darker, and he sighed for a while and said, "Thinking about it for the husband is all unsuccessful." Governor He's illness, you and I both know, the so-called cure without medicine, that is just self-deception, looking at He Dubo's performance tonight, he threw himself into Persia, it was a matter of time. But we can't be strong against him. Once this happens, the camel camp and Yu Chenguo themselves will fight first, won't it be cheaper for Persia? ”

Zhu Yuqing looked around, around, there were dilapidated houses everywhere, Yu Chenguo had been holding on for a long time, and most of the residents' houses had been demolished to make fallen rocks and woods, and between the ruins and broken walls, there were some open-air city residents. In fact, He Dubo can hold on for so long, and he can be regarded as trying his best. As he himself said, as the head of a country, he also has to think about the people of the whole country. Although Yu Chen is a partial branch of the He family, time has passed, and in the case of He Xiaotian's serious injury, it is really not suitable for the whole country to be martyred for him.

Seeing that a team of patrolling soldiers had gone away, Zhu Yuqing pulled Wu Ming and whispered: "Ah Ming, you are in the bureau and don't know it, this situation seems to be critical, but in fact, it is not impossible to solve. ”

Wu Ming turned his head, looked at his wife's face, and said in surprise: "Xiaoqing, do you have a way?" ”

Zhu Yuqing looked at the eastern sky, the hazy moon was coming out of the transparent clouds like cicada wings, shining with silver brilliance, under the moonlight, her pretty face flashed with white brilliance: "There is a way, but it is just a dangerous fight when there is no way out." ”

Wu Ming hurriedly said: "In the current situation, there are almost no deaths, as long as you can fight, you don't care if you are in danger or not, you can tell me." ”

Zhu Yuqing turned his head and looked at Wu Ming's eyes, and a pair of water-cut eyes shone with a wise brilliance: "Ah Ming, this is Yu Chen's home field, and it is naturally impossible to take the initiative against He Guo." But have you thought about it, if the Persian envoy, the wolf marquis Chu Tianxing dies, what will be the consequences? ”

There seemed to be an electric light in his head, Wu Ming almost lost his voice, and hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "Yes, once this happens, He Dubo will not be able to escape the blame, and Persia will definitely be angry with him." This completely blocked the door for Yu Chen to surrender to Persia, and He Dubo could only work together with us to repel the Persian attack, so that there would be a glimmer of life. ”

He grabbed his wife's knife and slashed his shoulders like a knife, and praised: "Xiaoqing, you are really my brainchild, if you have a wife like you, what more can you ask for!" ”

Zhu Yuyu was still full of worries: "But Ah Ming, Chu Tianxing is not a weak person, he has fought with you a few times, and it is almost indistinguishable." When he came to Yu Chen this time, he didn't come alone, but brought a lot of entourage. If you really fight him, the camel battalion will be all generals immediately, and you will not be able to do anything when you go, but you will startle the snakes. I think about it, and Black Friday will also resist one or two for you, it's too dangerous. ”

Wu Ming held his wife's face and nodded on her smooth forehead: "Xiaoqing, if we don't do this, we won't even have the slightest chance." Even if He Dubo is willing to let us go, what about the tens of thousands of camel battalion soldiers? What about tens of thousands of Chinese and Western soldiers? This risk must be taken, and it is worth taking. ”

He let go of his wife and said arrogantly: "Besides, Chu Tianxing and I used to be the same eighth stage, even if he recently broke through, it was only the early stage of the ninth stage. The husband was never afraid of him when he was in the eighth section, but was he afraid when he reached the ninth stage? Rest assured ......"

Just as he was about to say a few more nice words of comfort to his wife, suddenly there was the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, and he hurried out of the night. As soon as the knight saw Wu Ming and his wife, he hurriedly grabbed the horse, rolled over and rolled off the saddle, and said breathlessly: "Grandpa, General Ye Lihe asked you to return to the camp immediately, there is an emergency military situation." ”
