There was no fire in the city, and Xue Ling felt his way and stumbled back to the inn. After taking a look at the stable, and thinking that the forage was really good, he crawled back to the upper room and fell on the bed.
The wine was surging, and I couldn't tell whether it was burning in my stomach or being angry in my heart, I only felt that my mouth was dry, and I still couldn't understand it after calling Xiao Er to send tea several times.
She still hasn't figured out why her father's death in prison for several days has been made public, and there is no grievance about Xue Yihan.
Tossing and turning until midnight, Xue Ling held the two rabbits on the sword spike, and still couldn't stop asking himself:
"When did this world become like this?
If this is the case, what else can it be? ”
I asked it a thousand times, and finally there was an echo. Where the blood was surging in his body, every inch was roaring: "How can I be alone and not see my five fingers, and simply make the world blind." ”
Far away in Huo Mansion in Beijing, Huo Yunsheng was finally able to open both eyes, although the candles had already been extinguished in the room, but it was not the kind of darkness that could not be dissolved just now.
He had a rare nightmare, he couldn't see his face clearly in the dream, only a pair of red eyes were particularly eye-catching, and he stood there with words in his heart: "I, Xue Ling, Wen Cong, the Taifu of the Three Dynasties, and the general of Wu Sui Dingguo." Today's fate is uncertain, and his whereabouts are unknown. Sleep, and don't forget to keep one eye open! ”
The scene changed, and he was trapped in a valley somewhere, and someone on the cliff was pointing a bow and crossbow straight at his neck. That kind of chill shocked his brain, and he immediately said to himself, "It's a dream, it's a dream." The eyelids were heavy, and I wasted a lot of energy, opened my right eye a slit, and struggled for a long time in a cold sweat before I opened my left eye with difficulty.
After lying on the bed for a while, the person was fully awake, and the fear barely subsided.
Huo Yunsheng touched the edge of the bed, and his memory was already a little far away. What's more, he and Xue Ling haven't met a few times, and at this moment, even if they stand in front of him, they may not be able to recognize it. Those few words are too profound.
Sometimes in retrospect, he doesn't feel afraid. But Xue Ling really seemed to have disappeared from this world, and the Huo family used all means to find this person again.
He is the son of the Huo family, and Huo Zhun cultivated the royal forest general. With the accession of the six princes to the throne, it is the peak of youthful spirit. It's as if everything in the world is in the palm of your hand.
When he first chased and killed Xue Ling, he felt that this person was nothing more than that, if it wasn't for the emperor and his father repeatedly explained, how could he go out in person. After three or four fights, I didn't see anything special about Xue Ling. Even a few cruel words are said to cry and cry, which makes people laugh.
But when the Song family robbed the prisoner on the day of the execution, he really had a thorn in his heart. He calculated that Xue Ling might come, and made preparations early, but he still didn't catch the prisoner. Then the son of the Song family also disappeared.
He didn't care about appeasing the emperor's anger, although there was nothing to appease, after all, the one who was waiting for something to happen to the Huo family today. Guarding the city day and night, he immediately went over to check on the people who turned over on their backs.
No, nothing. He missed once, and that time it can be said that he was not chasing. A few days later, he missed a second time, this time, it was a robbery in the middle of the city, and he escaped in the net. It's not necessarily the same person on both occasions, but who can be sure it's not.
Neither the robbed Song Cang nor Xue Ling could be found, so Huo Yunsheng strengthened the guards of the Huo Mansion and waited for Xue Ling to throw himself into the net. A few months ago, there was indeed something different, but I didn't catch anything. Then, everything was calm.
It seems that the Xue family has never existed, and even his father doesn't care if Xue Ling is still on the run. As the days passed, the hunt receded from his memory.
Until today, the big dream is awakened. It turns out that the eight words "life and death are uncertain, and the whereabouts are unknown" have long been maggots on the tarsal bones.
How can there be ghosts and gods in the world to be feared, only people's hearts are called A Nose Knife Mountain.
After Xue Ling fell asleep in the middle of the night, he fell into a very deep sleep. On the second day, Xiao Er knocked on the door and woke up.
was planning to rush all the way to Pingcheng, she only needed to stay in the inn for one night, and she couldn't afford to sleep until the first three poles of the day, so the store was busy to catch up with people.
Xue Ling hurriedly handed over the silver: "I'm really sorry, I didn't finish the delay yesterday, I bothered the second brother to help me continue for another night, and by the way, I will send some snacks, and please drink tea for the rest." ”
She has a lot of money on her, and she doesn't look at the amount when she shoots, so Xiao Er went out with a smile.
This inn is open on a relatively lively street, open the window, the flow of people on the street can not be said to come and go, and the shouting is one after another. Xue Ling simply sat on the windowsill and watched.
The people below are also thinking in their hearts that Xue Yihan should die earlier?
Xiao Er sent a few mutton patties with a pot of piping hot mare's milk tea. After eating in three or two, Xue Ling went downstairs and walked to the street. I bought a few fur clothes, some dry food suitable for storage, and a good bow and arrow. The seller boasted that even bison could hunt.
Xue Ling touched the bow and walked back and forth for a long time, picking up his favorite things to buy. At night, it still rests in Ningcheng.
Maybe nothing in this world is set in stone, she came here because she wanted a result, but at this moment, she just wanted a beginning.
On the second day, he got up early and set off, because the south gate of Pingcheng was facing the territory of Liang State, and outside the north gate was the head of the Hu people, Xue Ling deliberately detoured to the outside of the north gate.
When he saw the outline of the city gate, the sun had begun to set in the west, and Xue Ling slowed down his horse and slowly walked closer to stand. White-clothed red horses, the wind is strong here, and the robes are blown and hunting.
The gates of Heijo seem to have been raised. On those stones, the traces of fire have not completely disappeared.
The guards at the city gate also spotted this man and shouted, "Who is under the city?" ”
The buildings are high, and the people above and below the city can't see each other's faces clearly. confronted each other Shaoqing, and when they saw that Xue Ling didn't answer, they shouted again, "Who is the one who came down from the city?" ”
Finally, I had seen enough, and behind me was the hunting bow I bought yesterday. Xue Ling took it out, mounted an arrow, and tried to aim at a small flag planted on the city wall.
Bows and arrows are not suitable for close combat, and they usually practice mostly with straw handles, and she doesn't like it very much, so she just takes it with Lu Wen'an when she goes out to patrol and hunt yellow sheep. In the past two years, I haven't touched it, and I feel that the accuracy is not good.
In the eyes of those above, such an action is already a clear provocation. Someone was sent to report it, but there was no preparation for a counterattack. Several guards stood together and stared at Xue Ling with puzzled expressions.
Let's talk about siege, what can this one person do. Say no, what does this bow mean?
Han Mang finally cut through the sky, and a banner in the middle was so powerful that it directly brought up the flying strip of cloth and nailed it to the wall behind him.
Xue Ling was happy to see it. This city is a flat city, yes, but it is not her flat city.
He threw his bow, and regardless of the question on the city wall, he took a selfie at his horse and turned away.
Lu Wen'an had just gone to pee when he came up and heard about this strange thing. Standing on the edge and taking a look, he just saw his cub disappear in front of him.
In fact, I couldn't see it clearly, the man was riding on a horse, and he had already walked far, and he could only see a palm-sized back.
But it must have been his cub back, the cub he had been waiting for for two years.
He rushed down the city tower to chase him out, but unfortunately he was no longer the confidant of General Zhenbei, he was just a pawn who was called around. Someone stopped him at the door: "I'm afraid it's a fraud, don't chase it out yet." ”
"Fuck off", the heavy sword Wufeng, who had been dead for several years, was reborn in Pingcheng.
After he fell into the water, he lost Xue Ling, and he could only hear others say that Xue Yihan was dead, and he didn't rush to save Song Baimanmen. He had no time for anything, so he could only look for his cub along the riverbank.
Xue Ling can't float, he knows it. But he couldn't help it, he found the middle of the next year from spring, and walked along the hundreds of miles of rivers three or four times.
In the end, he climbed to Heijo like a dog. If his cub is still there, he will definitely return to Pingcheng, definitely.
After knocking down a dozen or so people who were in the way, Lu Wenan hurriedly chased him out of the city. But there was nothing outside the door.
Then there were two or three days of sleeplessness, and he didn't go back to the city to change horses, and when he saw that the horses were exhausted, he came down, walked by himself, and waited for the horses to rest and turn aimlessly.
It's just that he didn't meet anything. Even, he went to the area where he encountered wolves when he was looking for Xue Ling. However, it was freezing cold, and even the wolves were gone.
He, the deputy general, lost two generals.
And Xue Ling, what he lost was the only salvation left.
