Chapter 21: Rebels and Thieves

When the princess "called" him, it was not yet dawn, and the heavens and the earth were silent, cold, and gray.

Mulan gently shook him from his dream, a terrible nightmare. In that brief dream, he dreamed that he was walking on a dim grassland, an endless grassland. He hobbled naked, barefoot, surrounded by a pack of hungry wolves with glowing green eyes, strong as calves, with sharp fangs and low growls in their throats. He tried to run away, but his body wouldn't listen. One of the wolves pounced on him, tearing him and biting him, teasing him like a cat playing with a mouse. Then, a full moon peeked out of the clouds, and under the moonlight, a silver-white wolf king looked up to the sky and roared at the moon, and then all the wolves retreated. The silver wolf seemed to have declared sovereignty to him, and the silver wolf came to him slowly and coldly, and the eyes were indeed high and arrogant. Oh! She finally pounced on him and bit him down on the neck without hesitation. Blood splattered from his neck, and all he could hear was a hideous tear, and then the whole person was plunged into endless darkness.

Then, he was shaken awake from the nightmare by Mulan.

When he opened his eyes, the wolves surrounding him were long gone, and the silver giant wolf had no shadow at all. There were only a few blazing bonfires rising around him, and next to one of them, a silver-haired and white-robed woman stood with her back to him. It was his newlywed wife Gao Qianxue, but when he saw her shadow, he suddenly shivered and broke out in a cold sweat. He suddenly remembered the silver wolf that had bitten his throat, he had never been so scared in his life.

Except now.

Although his previous experience was also very unbelievable, he came from modern times to ancient times all at once, and even was seriously injured and almost died as soon as he came. But these didn't give him too much of an immediate impact, and he hadn't really felt such a close death. And now, he finally felt this terrible breath of death.

Pursued, fled, rebelled, heinous, exterminated the nine clans, and beheaded the public

He never imagined that he would one day be in such a situation. Even if he found that he had traveled to the Sui Dynasty after waking up, he did not expect that he would reach this point.

The people of Gaojiazhuang divided into several groups and hurriedly moved to other secret and safe places. When he and Gao Qianxue came out, there were less than fifty people, but after walking for half the night, they converged a few more on the road, and by the second half of the night, when they were resting here temporarily, the number of this team had reached more than two hundred. But these people are not people transferred from Gaojiazhuang, and he has never seen these people in Gaojiazhuang. And these people are not ordinary people at first glance, and their outfits are unsettling to look at. These people are all young and strong, both men and women, basically they are about eighteen to thirty years old, and even they are dressed in a variety of ways.

A group of about fifty men sitting in front of the fire on Ling Yun's left hand side were all wearing leather armor, both men and women, covered with new and old cowhide armor, with tied pants and calves, and leggings. What is even more difficult to ignore is that each man in this group has a long knife on his waist and a thick spear by his side. The strong and fierce women carried smaller horizontal knives at their waists, longbows on their backs, and quivers around their waists. Both men and women wore their hair tied in a high bun on top and wrapped around it with a red cloth band. They sat casually on the ground, laughing and laughing with each other around the campfire, munching on pepper and mutton and sipping ale. This scene was particularly abnormal in Ling Yun's eyes. He even wanted to shake his head, hoping he just wasn't sober.

Gao Mingyue sat on the other side of him, wearing a brand new pair of red leather armor and a jade sword at his waist. Uncle Qian's son, Xiao Qian, and Gao Bo's son, Xiao Qian, sat next to her, and the two of them were also fully armed, with leather armor, swords and even bows and arrows. In front of them, there is a group of men who don't know each other at all, their outfits are varied, they look chaotic and disorderly, and even the weapons on their bodies are also varied, with knives, guns, spears, bows and arrows, men and women, like a group of mountain bandits and roadlords who rob homes and houses. On the periphery of this makeshift camp, there were still many shadowy shadows walking, which had been guarded and guarded earlier. Those people were all dressed like the original nursing home in Gaojiazhuang, and there were forty or fifty of them.

It's so strange for these big groups of people to be here, but they seem to be very harmonious.

Ling Yun's mind was in chaos, and in the midst of such a crowd, he only felt unprecedented dazedness and fear.

No matter how nervous Ling Yun is, no matter how careless he is, he has long seen that these people are neither hunters, nor Zhuang Ding, nor are they bandits and horse bandits, these people are obviously the people of Her Royal Highness Gao Qianxue, the princess of Northern Qi. Moreover, this is only a small part of it, a Gaojiazhuang can have two hundred well-trained Zhuang Ding, as the princess of Gao Qianxue Northern Qi, if she has the heart to operate, how can she have a large private army. Judging from Ling Yun's observation, when Gao Qianxue lived in Gaojiazhuang, he must have arranged for these warriors to be scattered near Gaojiazhuang to protect Gaojiazhuang's safety at any time. And judging by the speed of this concentration, it is very likely that what appears here is only a part of this Northern Qi force.

Thinking about what Gao Qianxue said to him before, they have only been in Jiangnan for a year, and when they were actually active in the north in the past, they can judge that their real strength will only be greater, and what they are in front of them may only be the tip of the iceberg of this force that is unwilling to die in the country.

It has been more than 20 years since the Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed, but they still have such a force. Isn't the significance obvious? Ling Yun comforted himself countless times along the way, hoping that Gao Qianxue was just the princess of the Northern Qi Dynasty, which was obviously self-deception. Gao Qianxue is not only the princess of the dead country of Northern Qi, but they have also been running a force, and the power is not small. In addition, Gao Ding was seriously injured and returned, Gao Yi went out and never returned, and then they were suddenly about to transfer, and the fog gradually opened a corner, Ling Yun was already sure that Gao Qianxue was against Sui, and it was even possible that they were still planning to restore the country. As soon as he thought that he was involved in such a great crime of rebellion, he plucked the cold.

He is a modern man, who knows better than him what he looks like today. The Great Sui Empire is now in full swing, under the prosperity of the emperor, the world is peaceful, and the population of the Great Sui is more than 40 million, more than 9,000 miles from east to west, and more than 14,000 miles from north to south. Although the Great Sui Dynasty had been peaceful for several years, it reduced many government soldiers. There are more than 600,000 government soldiers on standing, and the ability to mobilize for war is even more amazing, and it can mobilize up to 1.5 million soldiers and horses nationwide at any time.

Although Ling Yun also knows better than everyone that this Great Sui Empire, which is currently in full swing, is actually about to reach its peak, and then the rivers are going down. But no matter what, it is impossible for a huge empire like the Great Sui to collapse all at once. The hundred-legged worm dies but does not stiffen, and the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. Yang Guang is not even a prince now, and when he finds the prince and becomes the son of heaven, it will take a few more years for the Great Sui to be more prosperous before a big chaos suddenly breaks out. But if the people of the world are against it, they will have to do a great job for seven years at the earliest, and there will be thirteen years before now. When Yang Guangjiang is killed, there will be another twenty years.

Twenty years, how many fungus have been blackened, how many bananas have been softened, and how many grapes have been purple.

At least at that time, if Ling Yun and Gao Qianxue worked hard to create a human being now, twenty years later, they would almost be able to become grandfathers.

The so-called rafters rot first, and the gun shoots the first bird, and now at this time, engage in revenge and rebellion? Isn't that the old birthday star hanging, and he thinks his life is long?

Along the way just now, several times, Ling Yun was thinking that maybe he should find a way to leave. After all, he doesn't have much ambition, and he can't go back when he comes to this era, so just try to survive and find a way to live an easier life. As for the idea of marrying a princess, becoming a concubine, becoming a general, becoming an emperor, reaching the pinnacle of life, leaving a name in history, creating an empire, and unifying the world, he never thought about it at all, never thought about it at all.

But more and more people gathered along the way, and four teams joined halfway, and there were more and more people, and he followed Gao Qianxue's side, and he was directly protected in the middle, and there was no chance to leave at all.

Besides, where can he go if he leaves, he hasn't figured out his identity yet. With no identity and no money, where can he go. The most important thing is that he has already married Gao Qianxue, and he has gone through the three books and six ceremonies, with this ancient concept, he will be a Gao family in his future life, and he will be a ghost of the Gao family in death. And this kind of thing of rebellion is even more of a punishment for the nine clans, and he can't run away if he wants to.

He tried hard to keep smiling, but the muscles on his face were stiff to death, and his heart couldn't stop sinking.

"Da Lang," Mulan told him, "Miss, please come over." ”

"Okay." Ling Yun nodded when he heard this.

In fact, Ling Yun didn't sleep long just now, so he took a nap. They had walked for most of the night last night, it was the night before dawn, and the team stopped to rest, eat, and then go to the next place that he did not know at all.

Although they came out in a hurry, there was no shortage of food, and those who came halfway were very well prepared. By the time he was napping, he had already prepared a lot of food. Plates of food are served in front of you, from fragrant grilled meats to fatty sausages, and even delicious fish soup, as well as salted eggs and sliced ham. It's just that in the face of these, he doesn't have the slightest appetite, he doesn't want to eat anything at all, and his stomach is full early.

Gao Qianxue seemed to understand his mood at this time, and didn't say anything, and didn't bother him anymore after personally bringing him a well-matched meal. As a result, Ling Yun could only feel as if he was wrapped in cotton, and he had nowhere to exert his strength. Finally, he snatched a wine bag in front of Gao Bo's son, raised it and took a few sips. While drinking, he thought in his heart, "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and I will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune and be auspicious in distress!" After pouring it hard, he couldn't help roaring in his heart, "Niu Ri, Lao Tzu has traveled to the Sui Dynasty from modern times, is there anything more incredible in this world." Fuck it, the soldiers will block it, and the water will flood it! ”
