Chapter 114. Hanling Pass ambush
Looking at Sheng Jingyu's not very good face, Almond was amused in his heart.
Then he put a few chopsticks of meat and vegetables for Su Cheng into his bowl.
Sheng Jingyu was helpless in his heart, and he still regretted it a little, he originally wanted to pick up Su Cheng back so that he could serve almonds.
As a result, I didn't expect Almond's loving mother to be heartbroken, but she thought about Sioux City everywhere.
Looking at the warm and friendly picture of the two, Sheng Jingyu felt a little unhappy in her heart.
At night, Sheng Jingyu summoned Su Cheng to fetch water to bathe.
Almond looked at Su Cheng's thin body from the side, and struggled to carry the bucket in, a little unbearable.
But Sheng Jingyu seemed to be having some inexplicable temper, and she didn't dare to provoke more.
The two took turns bathing and squeezed into a bed.
Although this is a Tianzi room, the bed is still not as big as in the Shengjing Jade Bedroom.
The two of them slept on it, and Almond couldn't spread out freely.
She stretched her hands and feet, and always accidentally touched Sheng Jingyu.
Almond deliberately controls himself and does not let himself mess around, but when he is awake, it is fine, how can a person who is asleep be able to control himself.
Late at night, Sheng Jingyu looked at the almonds with one leg straddling him and eight limbs, and felt a little helpless.
Fortunately, he was used to her sleeping appearance, and he didn't bother to take her legs back again.
Because if he moved, she would be even more entangled, making people uncomfortable.
In order to make her better, Sheng Jingyu still decided to ignore her.
The night was long, and Almond didn't know why, when Sheng Jingyu was by her side, she always slept very sweetly.
The next morning, they got up early and hurried.
Su Cheng may have been instructed to do something, and now he has consciously regarded himself as an almond's little servant.
Early in the morning, he consciously came in with a basin of water and waited for almonds to wash his face and rinse his mouth.
Almond was a little uncomfortable and took the handkerchief herself.
"Sioux City, you don't have to do this, really."
Su Cheng understood, shook his head, and spoke seriously.
"No, no."
Almond couldn't help but be amused when she looked at his clumsy appearance.
Just let him do whatever he wants.
Tidy herself up, and when Almond went downstairs, everyone was already dressed and ready and waiting for her.
Almond was a little embarrassed, and after getting into the carriage with Sheng Jingyu, he complained in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, why didn't you tell me to wake up early?"
Sheng Jingyu glanced at her, "You sleep like a pig, you can't wake up with thunder, you asked me to wake you up?" ”
"I almost dragged you out of bed to the floor."
Ahem.
Is it so exaggerated?
Almond looked at Sheng Jingyu as if she was doing something, and was a little embarrassed.
She blushed and let out a soft "oh".
The best way to make a person forget something is to change the subject.
Almond opened the window and looked at Sioux City, who was struggling to follow the carriage, when he saw the curtain open, he showed a sweet smile towards Almond.
Don't say how a boy has a sweet smile, that's just an adjective.
To put it another way, Almond felt that Sioux City was like a little milk dog, snorting enthusiastically at his owner.
"Your Majesty, should we let Su Cheng come up and sit, you see he seems to be very tired."
Almond shifted the subject, only it seemed to shift to the flames again.
"Tired? It's not enough for me to bring you a burden, I have to bring another one? You go and ask the soldiers outside who have been walking for five days and five nights, and you ask them if they are tired. ”
Ahem, poked into the hornet's nest.
However, what His Majesty said was true, and Almond lowered her face in shame.
Sioux City was just picked up halfway, if it was treated differently, what would those soldiers think in their hearts?
I'm not very happy.
Almond thought about it, and had to smile apologetically at Sioux City outside the car.
Su Cheng didn't care, and smiled so much that he showed eight big white teeth, and his cute appearance made Almond's heart soften.
Sheng Jingyu watched with a dark face, and regretted even more that he had agreed to Almond to pick up Su Cheng back.
It's really luring wolves into the house and asking for hardship.
However, it is naturally difficult to regret what he promised, Sheng Jingyu secretly planned in his heart, how to stand on the moral high ground to drive this annoying puppy away.
The troops set off in a mighty manner, estimating the distance, and Almond felt that it would be there in the afternoon.
Sure enough, after everyone had lunch, it didn't take long for them to enter the Hanling Pass in Beisai.
Hanling Pass was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so after the defeat at the front, all the people and the remaining soldiers fled here to defend the city.
Entering the junction of Hanling Pass, it is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and all of them are severe and steep mountain walls.
The army marched here, and Sheng Jingyu felt a little uneasy in his heart.
The mountain wall was deserted, but the extraordinary silence around him raised his vigilance.
"Get through quickly!"
He had always trusted his instincts, and at this time he did not hesitate and gave the order directly.
When everyone listened to the order, they were distracted, and they did not ask why, but directly carried out the order.
The carriage picked up, and Almond sat in it with a little shaking.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
She lifted the curtain and looked out of the car, but found nothing.
Sheng Jingyu was silent, which made Almond even more curious.
But in the next second, she knew why Sheng Jingyu was so dignified.
I saw a team of people suddenly appear on the cliff, not many of them, but they pushed five or six large stones.
Almond's sharp eyes saw it, and he couldn't help but exclaim.
"Your Majesty, there are enemy troops!"
As soon as the words fell, the big stone on the cliff was let go and rolled down, and rolled straight towards the people at the bottom of the mountain.
"Everyone, be careful!"
Almond shouted anxiously, looking away.
Then he came back to his senses and found that a large falling rock was approaching the carriage.
"Hold me tight!"
Sheng Jingyu's face was heavy, and then he grabbed her waist and rushed out of the carriage.
Moments after they left the carriage, it was crushed by a boulder.
Almond was relieved to see that there was a mess all around, and someone had been swept into it by falling rocks.
For a moment, he was swept under the falling rocks, and he couldn't even make a sound.
Others were injured and screamed.
For a while, the ghosts around were crying and wolves were howling, and blood was everywhere, like purgatory on earth.
It was the first time Almond had seen such a scene, and in an instant goosebumps rose all over his body, and his throat was choked and nauseated.
She hurriedly closed her eyes, not daring to look again, but her heart was clenched.
All this happened in an instant, after Sheng Jingyu got out of the carriage with almonds, he dodged the falling rocks and was unharmed.
However, a wave of unevenness rose again and again, and I only heard a voice on the cliff that seemed to give an order.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Then countless cold arrows went straight to the bottom of the mountain, and Sheng Jingyu had no time to take care of anything else, so he could only protect the person in his arms.
He drew his jade sword and cut off all the arrows that came his way, keeping Almond safe, but he could only watch as his soldiers were shot and killed.
