No Return (1)
Xue Ling had another nightmare, and the dream was a heavy snow that Pingcheng had rarely encountered in a hundred years. She fell alone in the deep snow, her body stiff and unable to move. The city was empty, and there was neither Xue Yihan nor Lu Wenan. The snow in the sky fell faster and faster, and finally buried her alive, she wanted to shout for help, but no matter how hard she tried, the voice in her throat was only a sentence that turned over and over: "This is my steamed bun....it's my steamed bun." ”
It wasn't until she was out of breath in reality that she could tear that crazy soul out of the boundless nightmare.
Glancing out the window, it should be the fourth watch.
In the past two years, such a dream has come once every three or five years. So much so that as soon as Xue Ling saw Pingcheng, he reminded himself that this was a dream, and this was just a big dream in the Spring and Autumn Period.
It just didn't work. Although it was like a dream for more than a year, this body was still shocked. Knowing that the dream was all fake, she was still inevitably frightened by the war, and then woke up in shock. I found myself suffocating and cold, as if I had just climbed out of a snowdrift.
Although it was late autumn, Xue Ling was lying on the ground again. But the giant Jia Su's family, stepping on the foot, is also a number of scattered brocade. What's more, the fire in the house is still thriving, where does the coolness start?
I think it was Xue Ling's unconscious movements when he woke up, and on the bed a few steps away, it was the eldest young master of the Su family who was disturbed from sleeping, and he was extremely impatient: "What are you tossing around, don't go outside and sleep." ”
Xue Ling didn't care. Relieved the panic in his heart, and stared out the window again. The sky is high and the clouds are light, and there are sparse stars hanging. Spring goes to autumn, winter turns to summer, and this kind of day has passed for more than two years.
From the time she was eager to kill today, to the day when she was alive, she shouted long live without changing her face.
From the time she looked at the blood-stained street of the Song Bai family, few people have mentioned the Xue family anymore.
From her frosty sword and cold Langjun, to now she is smiling like Miss Huajiao.
Two years ago, Xue Yihan came back all the way, and Xue Yihan was dead. Where the charges came from and who was safe, Xue Ling didn't know. Only a few remnants of notices and rumors in the market are pieced together. She wanted to kill Huo Yunsheng secretly, but Huo Mansion was not only heavily guarded, but also the terrain was complicated, she was not familiar with Jingzhong, relying on her own martial arts, she broke through twice, but she couldn't find Huo Yunsheng's room, and hurt herself the second time.
I wanted to die, but the time for the Song family's execution had arrived. Half the street was stained red with blood.
What Xue Ling was holding in his hand was a famous sword in Beijing. What she used was what she had learned in her life. followed all the way, and scattered a lot of smoke in the downtown area. dragged Song Bai's sons Song Cang and Song Si out of the prisoner car by one person.
But in this world, there is no miracle in the world. The Song family produced Song Bai, a general, but he still did not change his sour and rotten spirit. The two sons were taught in Beijing to be powerless, and in the end, Xue Ling only protected Song Cang. Song Si's bravery inherited from his father is probably used to block arrows for his younger brother.
After the rest of the Song family landed on the ground, the entire capital was about to be dug up three feet by Huo Yunsheng, looking for the Song family's fish that had slipped through the net and the unknown robber. Xue Ling dragged an oil bottle to hide in Tibet, panicking all day long. After coming and going, I touched the silver hollow sachet.
What appeared in front of her was a beautiful woman bowing slightly: "The Su family in the capital, welcome you." ”
She didn't know what the Su family was, but she could gamble. There doesn't seem to be much of a choice.
It's not that the enemies don't get together, it happened to be Su Yin who opened the door, and he was on the order of Mrs. Su to pick up Su Yuanxing, the eldest young master of the Su family. It's just that he didn't recognize Xue Ling at a glance.
At this time, Xue Lingsu brocade jacket, 100 butterfly skirts, wrapped in an embroidered plum coat, hair pulled up, decorated with silk flowers, a full small jasper appearance. But he was holding a dirty baby in his hand.
Su Yin glanced at it twice, and thought that there was something going on in the house, so he asked, "Who is the girl looking for?" ”
Xue Ling shook the sachet twice in front of Su Yin's eyes: "I'm looking for your wife." ”
Su Yin looked at it carefully twice, and he could stuff a fist in his mouth: "You......... You...... You..."
Xue Ling held the silver hairpin in her hand and followed Su Yin into the mansion, in case something was wrong, she could hold her hostage and withdraw. Now she has no feelings about her life, but there is an extra Song family around her, so she has to take more precautions.
Mrs. Su sent all the subordinates to disperse and sat there alone: "Which little master am I, I don't want to be pecked by the eagle that day, the little master came to the door today, but he came to pay back."
She obviously saw the appearance of Xue Ling's daughter's house, and she still kept calling the little master. Xue Ling didn't know what Mrs. Su was thinking, her heart was tight, and she really didn't want to say hello more: "I'm here to borrow money." ”
Mrs. Su blew the tea bowl carelessly, and her eyes didn't look at Xue Ling: "Little young master, this is difficult for a strong man, although my Su family has a big business, it is also saved one by one." The little young master's borrowing method, the Son of Heaven will frown. ”
Xue Ling's hairpin had already pierced his palm, and he snorted involuntarily. In the past few days, her hatred for the royal family and Huo Yunsheng has become an obsession, as soon as she hears the name. I couldn't stop wanting to stab the person who spoke a few times. It's just that at this moment, he forcibly pressed down, and with the strength of his hand, he pierced himself.
"Mrs. Su is not borrowing, but she is leaving"
Thinking that she heard the emotion in Xue Ling's tone, Mrs. Su finally raised her head: "The little young master will come as he says, and he will leave as soon as he says." I didn't borrow it this time, but the little master, I borrowed it last time, and I haven't paid it back yet. ”
Before Xue Ling could answer, Mrs. Su leaned in front of her and asked in a low voice: "This one in your hand belongs to the Song family, he is worth five thousand taels, if I guess correctly, the two of you add together, it should be ten thousand taels."
After that, Mrs. Song sat back and sipped tea in that calm manner.
Xue Ling squeezed the hand of the youngest son of the Song family, glanced around, and was indeed no one else: "Madame, don't mess around, I don't want to hurt people." ”
Mrs. Song propped her hand on the table, held her pink gills, and looked at Xue Ling with a smile: "Little young master, don't mess around, the Su family doesn't want to hurt people." Our family is in business. This business is all about harmony. There are comings and goings, borrowing and returning. It depends on whether you pay it back today or tomorrow. ”
Xue Ling was accustomed to foul language between men, and had never encountered a gentle and drizzly threat. Mrs. Su in front of her is beautiful and fragrant, and her gestures are coquettish. She had a dry mouth and didn't know what to say. took Song Cang's hand and turned around to leave.
Behind him was a "ding bell" of gold and jade things colliding crisply, and then Mrs. Su's silver bell sounded again: "Little young master, don't go, the Su family has a slight production, and you always have to guard against thieves every day, the bell rings three times in my hand, and the officers and soldiers come over, that is, it is a breath of effort, but I am afraid that it will not be enough for you to run a mile." yes, Miss. ”
Xue Ling let out a heavy breath, knowing that Mrs. Su was threatening her with the word "eldest lady", and in the past two days, she had just pretended to be an ordinary woman with her younger brother, so she avoided many eyes. If her daughter's identity is pierced, it will be even more difficult to escape.
I had to protect Song Cang behind me and ask Mrs. Su, "What do you want?" ”
"Heh", Mrs. Su wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief: "Why is the little young master so arrogant, I don't want to do anything." The Su family has never done a loss-making business, so they asked the little young master when he would pay back. It's okay today, I'm not taking the house by force. In the past few days, the profits are good, the profits are rolling, five thousand taels is enough, the two of you can leave one at will, I will let Su Yin send it to the government for a while, and receive the reward, and the account will be cleared. If you want to go to Yellow Springs, go cleaner."
"What about Ming'er?"
