In the tunnel under the Tianjing Palace, Emperor Yongyu, who was originally looking at the information in high spirits, suddenly frowned and raised his hand, holding down his heart.

Countless turbulent air currents suddenly appeared in the internal organs, and the collision made it feel like countless knives were twisting in the body, so it was not uncomfortable.

Seeing his movements, the master rushed up with an arrow step very familiarly, and his palm patted lightly on the back of his heart, and Emperor Yongyu's face suddenly improved a lot.

The master said softly: "Your Majesty has just recovered, so you still have to recuperate more, don't think too much." ”

Emperor Yongyu relieved his heart, felt that it was really much more comfortable, nodded with satisfaction, took out a round pill, handed it to the master, and said, "You have worked hard, this hundred tonic pill will be given to you in advance." ”

The master stared at the fragrant golden balls, with a yearning and helpless look in his eyes, and took it for a while before taking it, eating it under the smiling eyes of Emperor Yongyu, and whispering thanks.

Emperor Yongyu was very fair, and immediately gave Qingming one, and Qingming thanked him happily.

Emperor Yongyu went to see the information again, and the two people behind him who had finished taking the medicine glanced at each other, and then at Emperor Yongyu's slightly yellowed hair, and turned their heads respectively.

……

In Qifeng Mountain, at the junction of Dingzhou Hengshui, which is close to Huzhou, 300 miles away, Wen Zhen Yansui's 30,000 elite soldiers encountered a difficult bone.

At a narrow mountain pass, they were confronted by a strange army.

There was not a single man alive in that army, and it was golden and slow.

It's all bronze men.

Movable bronze man.

It will make simple moves, move forward and backward, and cooperate with each other to form a formation.

But they are all slower than the living.

On an ordinary battlefield, such an army is naturally vulnerable, but the problem is that this is a narrow mountain pass, and such a bronze army is not afraid of fire, not afraid of slashing, not afraid of slashing, not afraid of stones, not afraid of poisonous water...... It became a bone that could not be gnawed at all.

And this mountain pass is the only way to rush back to Huzhou, and if you want to make a detour, you have to detour for seven or eight days.

Leading these 30,000 elite soldiers was Pan Hang, who had never seen such an army, and he was completely confused.

Behind the mountain pass, Yi Ming stood in the big tent, a huge copper plate in front of him, and countless dense hubs on the copper plate, connected with countless thin and flexible silk threads, were connected to those bronze people.

These lines are also not afraid of fire and knife cuts, and they are the hub for controlling the Bronze Array.

Yi Ming stared closely at the intricate silk threads, and his slender fingers played with them from time to time, seemingly leisurely, but the bronze man on the mountain pass in the distance would fight according to her manipulation, and there was no mistake in advancing or retreating.

She was preoccupied, because of the excessive energy consumption, this cold weather, sweat drops on her forehead slightly oozing.

Tang Yi allied forces, Tang Xianzhi personally led the troops to attack Huzhou, and she secretly led the troops to sneak into the mountains and forests to intercept the 30,000 elite soldiers.

This is an army that no one knows, but Tang Xianzhi guessed that when she waited impatiently in the mountains and forests and began to doubt, she saw that army with strong soldiers suddenly appeared in the field of vision, and her heart was full of amazement for Tang Xianzhi.

Such a terrible man.

If he hadn't met Wen Zhen, if Yan Sui hadn't met Wen Zhen, who would have died in the current Dongtang?

Yan Sui is also powerful, but he has a fatal flaw, he doesn't care too much, too unintentional, but he cares about people who shouldn't care, and Tang Xian is different, he is like that bronze man, smooth, hard, seemingly brilliant, in fact, there is no human emotion, only precise calculation and perfect execution.

Until Wen Zhen became his crevice.

Yi Ming sighed slightly.

Yan Sui is so lucky.

These high-ranking people, everyone's feelings are shackled and dragged down, only Yan Sui meets salvation.

Yi Ming lowered her head, her fingers moved faster, and the other side seemed to have found a trick to deal with the bronze man, but she didn't care, she didn't have many soldiers, but she alone could reach ten thousand troops, and there were countless strange things waiting for them to suffer, and these proud soldiers should be let see and understand, this world is not the only master of the machine, Yan Sui.

At the other end of the valley, Pan Hang frowned and looked at the sky.

Although the 30,000 army had already set out, the march of the army was completely different from the individual hurry, hiding the tracks along the way, walking in the mountains and forests, the road was difficult, and there was no shortage of detours.

On the other side is Yi Ming, Xichuan Thorn Shi personally shot, Pan Hang knows that this is a master of the organ, no less than His Royal Highness.

The Bronze Man has spent a lot of time, but the Bronze Man will never be Yi Ming's only move.

The most important thing is that since Yi Ming came to block him in person, it means that Tang Xianzhi has already made a move against Huzhou and cannot be delayed any longer.

Pan Hang suddenly turned his head to look in the other direction, it was a body of water, like a ribbon in the distance.

This water is connected to the horizontal water.

Although the valley in front of me has become a moat, and the detour will be very long, but along this water, as soon as you turn around, it is the Hengshui of the Tang family!

Pan Hang remembered the letter he received, the report about the situation of the Tang family, and Yan Sui's extremely bold suggestion.

He made up his mind in an instant.

Turn to Hengshui and hit the Tang family's lair!

The Tang family rebelled, the base camp must be empty, and the small building has been destroyed! No one can stop them. Walking from the Tang family's territory can not only relieve the plight of Huzhou, but also the nearest road!

The bronze man in front of him suddenly changed his formation and raised his sword to kill.

Pan Hang sounded the gong at this time and retreated!

A moment later, Yi Ming rushed out of the tent and saw the pale blue army disappearing into the mountains and forests from a distance.

She rushed to a high place, glanced at the direction of the other party's march, thought for a moment, and her face turned pale.

"Oops!"

……

The city gate shook constantly under the baptism of artillery fire, shaking the ground in the city was trembling slightly, and the huge Huzhou city gradually diffused with the smell of gunpowder that made the nose choke, and from time to time there were flying stones whistling over the sky above the city gate, and then smashed out a deep pit filled with gray smoke on the ground and the city wall.

The Tang army sent a huge number of arrows, and used a dense rain of arrows as fast as thunder to suppress the equally fierce confrontation at the head of the city, and the remnants of arrows on the ground at the head of the city were covered with a thick layer. Rushing under the city to carry the giant wood of the three people hugging together, viciously rushed to the heavy city gate, countless soldiers under the city against the city head boiling water and stone torches flying arrows, set up a ladder, holding a shield desperately to the height of the city head far beyond the general city wall climbing, the city head is covered with thick ice, very slippery, Tang Xianzhi urgently ordered the army craftsmen to nail a long nail on the ladder, pierced into the ice to fix, the soldiers covered the entire city wall like ants, the blue and black city wall is densely packed with wriggling human heads, and a batch of falling is immediately covered with a batch, The soldiers who rolled all the way through the wide shield could not stop filling the gunpowder at the foot of the city wall, and were often killed by cold arrows in the middle of the fill, but immediately someone continued to connect them, and those dark lines with infinite lethality burst out sizzling sparks all the way to the wide city wall after ignition, like a giant hammer, brazenly smashing the green bricks filled with rice pulp and ice and snow in a large area.

Flesh and blood are scattered, human lives are like grass, steel and blood are intertwined with the soaring killing field, and in the tidal wave of shouting and killing, the defenders of Huzhou gradually began to suffer heavy casualties, and the people who were urgently trained began to be pulled onto the battlefield. Many people rushed up to the city, slashing and slashing at the intruders with their bricks and tiles, stones and sticks by the roadside, and shovels, knives, axes, and household goods that used to tend the vegetable fields.

This wave of war lasted for three days and nights, and during the three days and nights, Zhang Yue personally guarded the head of the city and was injured by throwing stones, Lin Feibai knocked him unconscious and ordered people to take him away. Mrs. Zhang, who is small-footed, rushed to the head of the city and fought to the death and did not retreat, and Lin Feibai concocted it as such.

People changed again and again, but he himself had been standing at the head of the city, and he had been wounded by stray arrows, but he still did not move a step, standing by the city wall, and while receiving the military doctor's arrows to wrap his wounds, he was expressionless and stabbed to death a soldier who had climbed up to the top of the city.

Tang Xianzhi stood in the big tent of the military camp opposite, and he didn't sleep for three days and nights. kept staring at the city, commanding the soldiers to attack in turn, and the generals around him were whispering to persuade him to give up Huzhou and attack Pingzhou instead. Pingzhou has now become an empty city, it will be easy to take it, and Lin Feibai abandoned Pingzhou to rescue Huzhou, Pingzhou fell, Lin Feibai will inevitably be held accountable, so it will easily solve him. Although attacking Pingzhou is relatively detoured, it is better than spending it here in Huzhou.

Tang Xianzhi didn't pay attention to it.

If you give up halfway at this moment and go to Pingzhou, you may be attacked in the future.

Because those 30,000 elite soldiers can only delay, not be completely annihilated, and sooner or later they will appear behind them.

He is now crippling Huzhou in order to avoid being attacked by several states in the future, which will make his dream of going south fall halfway.

But the existence of these 30,000 elite soldiers is too incredible, and almost all generals can't figure it out, where did Yan Sui Wenzhen get so many soldiers?

A personal soldier hurriedly entered the tent and delivered a message, and the general in the tent Huo Ran was shocked.

"What! Has an army entered Hengshui? Where did this army come from! ”

"What should we do, my lord, should we go back to the army to rescue?"

"I have to go back, our family is small, it's all there!"

Tang Xianzhi slowly straightened up.

Here it comes.

Under the command of Yan Suiwen Zhen, it is really extraordinary.

His slender fingers caressed the map, and a faint smile crossed his eyes.

"No return."

"Xiaolou will intercept them."

"Xiaolou is not ......"

"The black lake starts with a white building, and the white lake gives birth to a black building. Who said that if the White House is destroyed, Tang Cheng will have no power? Tang Xianzhi said lightly, "Pass the order down and start the black building." ”

……

When Pan Hang led the 30,000 troops across the river and prepared to roar on the territory of the Tang family.

In the Tang City, the black lake water flowed away, and after the pavilions, a white marble square suddenly recessed, and then gradually filled the lake, holding out a platform.

Above the platform, black high-rise buildings, cornices and corners, towering and silent.

The black reflection in the white water swayed slightly, and countless red-clothed figures walked out, with light steps, cold faces, and broadswords at their waists like thin shovels.

……

Another day, another round of attacks was repulsed.

Lin Feibai, who had been in the city for five days and nights, suddenly shook.

was caught by the guards behind him in time, and the guards were startled when they saw Lin Feibai's face, and were about to call the military doctor, but Lin Feibai covered his mouth, and then Lin Feibai fainted.

The guards knew what he meant, and they didn't dare to say anything, so they quietly carried people downstairs, and Zhang Yue, who had rested for a round, and Bailin, the Huzhou Mansion, continued to defend the city. Zhang Yue immediately placed Lin Feibai in the Assassin's Mansion, and did not allow anyone or anything to disturb him to recuperate.

When Lin Feibai opened his eyes again, he felt that his eyes were dizzy, his heart was beating like crazy, the fire between his chest and abdomen was burning and empty, and there was no heat in his body, as if he had been frozen by cold ice for 10,000 years.

As soon as he moved, he couldn't help coughing, and the palm between his lips was removed, and the bright red between his fingers was bright.

He stared at the bright red for a long time, then wiped it off the futon.

The soldier brought the medicine, he took it and drank it, and he had to get better quickly before he could continue.

Outside, there was a sudden cry of panic.

"Captain Lin is dead!"

"The Pingzhou army he brought was almost wiped out!"

"If you don't believe it, go see the city! Captain Lin has always been there, but now he's gone! ”

The screams seemed to resound throughout the city, mixed with the growing noise and footsteps.

The soldier's face turned white.

Lin Feibai has been guarding the city for the past few days, repelling the attacks of the Tang Yi coalition army again and again, and he is already the backbone of the people's hearts, and suddenly heard this rumor, and then looked at the city head, he was really not there, and the people's hearts, which had gradually become nervous, would collapse immediately!

Lin Feibai had already gotten up, got out of bed, and the moment he stood up straight, he shook slightly, and then stood firm.

The setting sun entered through the window, outlining his slightly raised jawline, refined and beautiful.

"Change your clothes, put on your armor, and go to town."

"Captain!"

"It's an order!"

The new armor was brought, and Lin Feibai chose the light one, even if the light protection was not good.

He couldn't hold up the heavy armor anymore.

As he changed clothes, he remembered something, took out a ring from his bloodstained old clothes, and put it in his sleeve pocket.

That's curly grass.

Three years ago, Wen Zhen ordered someone to return it to him. Lin Feibai also accepted it silently.

When the battle was over, he thought, the grass could be sent out.

This time, this person will definitely not return the curly grass.

Lin Feibai walked through the corridor and suddenly saw his own reflection in the pool, haggard and pale that could not be concealed.

He thought for a moment and asked, "Where was Wen Tingshi's room back then?" ”

This is the Assassin's Mansion, where Wen Zhen lived. After Zhang Yue moved in, out of respect, he did not live in the backyard where Wen Zhen lived.

Lin Feibai entered Wen Zhen's boudoir, her dressing table was still there, and there was rouge and lipstick in it.

Lin Feibai opened the makeup box, stared at the rouge gouache for a while, and did not touch the ones used by Wen Zhen, but opened a brand new box, and smeared a little powder to make himself look more energetic.

suddenly remembered the past when I was in Liushan and was forced to dress up as a woman.

A faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips.

A moment later, the people of Huzhou, who had just fallen into a panic, saw Lin Duwei on the street with bright clothes and good complexion.

Rumors were shattered, and the riots stopped.

Lin Feibai smiled at everyone's concerned inquiry.

“…… It's okay, it's just that Lord Thorn Shi forced me to go down to the city to rest for a while. ”

"I'm going to change guards with Lord Thorn."

"Don't worry, I'm in the city, I'm not here, and the city is there."

……

Lin Feibai went to the city again, and this time it was another day and night.

……

In northern Sichuan, Pan Hang's army, which was racing all the way, suddenly encountered a red wall, and those red-clothed broadsword swordsmen, whose swords were like high mountains, stopped on the last hundred miles between him and Huzhou.

……

On the official road not far from Huzhou, Zhou Yuanzhi was galloping desperately, and Shi Lanjie chased after her helplessly.

"Miss Zhou! If you don't want to go back to Beijing, you don't want to go back to Beijing, don't run away-"

……

"Boom."

A cannon shot hit the city wall, and that place had already been accurately struck, and finally half of it was destroyed by this shell.

Lin Feibai, who was standing there, could have dodged, but for some reason, he took a step slower.

The soldiers rushed over regardless of life and death, pressing on him, for a long time, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and the soldiers rushed up and helped Lin Feibai up with their hands and feet.

"Captain, what's wrong with you!"

"Captain, are you alright?"

Lin Feibai opened his eyes, and at this moment, there was endless darkness in his eyes, so black that it was dull and opaque.

Like haze clouds gathering in the sky, waiting for the next moment of eternal darkness.

After a while, he shook his head and said softly, "It's okay." ”

When the soldiers saw that he was indeed fine, they dispersed, and the wall collapsed and had to be stopped immediately.

Lin Feibai struggled to stand up, and moved the hand that had been covering his lower abdomen slightly.

The light armor was broken, and his hands were red, and he wiped them on the wall, but there was more blood on the wall, and there was more red on his hands.

After a while, he smiled bitterly and looked ahead.

It should have been another day's dawn, but under his eyes, it was only black, a thick black, as if it could never be broken.

He couldn't see it.

I don't see the army under the city, I don't see the vast blue sky, I don't see the vicissitudes of the city wall, I don't see the most beautiful future and the loveliest people who can no longer be touched.

His face was still like frost and snow, his pace was steady, and under the gaze of all the eyes with admiration and affection, he walked to the side of the corner tower on the top of the city, and there were soldiers who came to serve, he waved his hand and said softly: "I'll rest for a while." ”

It was the last word he said in his life.

The crowd dispersed, and he sat down against the wall, one leg propped up slightly, his hand resting on his lap, and the other, hanging limply.

It looks like a very relaxed and calm posture, and it really looks like it's just a break.

He has been strict and upright all his life, and he has to be against the casual Yan Sui everywhere, he has never done such a posture, but now he has to make this appearance, but now he suddenly realized that it was really comfortable like this.

The burning pain in his whole body and internal organs had gradually faded, and his body suddenly became very light, and the sound was far away, and everything in the world was leaving him.

Only everything in my mind was clearer than ever, and it rolled backwards like a tide.

Suddenly, he was tied to the bed to quit drugs, listening to the clanging of iron chains in the pain of eroding bones, and staying up for the longest night in the world, when suddenly someone dragged the bench and said in a sweet voice: "Hey, I'll tell you a story." ”

All of a sudden, the three of them sat together, a little light, half a plate of snacks, listening to the girl on the small bench, talking about the Water Margin, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Journey to the West, and the Dream of Red Mansions, choking each other a few words from time to time.

Suddenly turned into a stream, and the ladies and he held hands, and both of them had only one foot intact, and they jumped on their own, like a pair of embarrassed frogs. She said, "Look, we're so good at jumping." ”

Suddenly, he transformed into a snow-white flower wall, the wall was covered with green tiles, every time he got up in the morning to practice the sword and passed the wall, there would suddenly be a flower on the tip of his nose, but he always saw the flower and did not see anyone, if he ignored it, the flower would be gently touched, if he opened it, the flower would disappear suddenly, accompanied by a chuckle on the other side of the wall.

The laughter faded into silence.

Amorous is always ruthlessly annoyed.

Those glamorous or light pictures faded away, and finally turned into the night of fighting in the military tent, the snow-white arms poked out of the peony-scented bedding, and trembled around his neck, and the voice said over and over again in his ear: "But for the sake of the king, everything is thrown." ”

Throw everything......

Yuan Zhi, you must be on the way back to Beijing, right? But I hope that in the frost and snow season of Tianjing in the future, someone will remember to add clothes for you.

Some words have not had time to say after all, and some gifts have not had time to give after all, but at this moment I am glad, if I say it, give it, how can you throw it?

Forgot...... I'll do it.

He lowered his eyelashes slowly.

The hand that had been holding the sword loosened slightly.

The sword fell to the ground.

The wind outside the city carried the snow over the high walls and slammed into his face.

Stay quietly.

The cannon fire was rising, the boulders were flying, the walls were trembling, the people around them were running in another wave of attacks, shouting and shouting, and everyone who passed by the side of Lin Duwei, who was sitting idly, would take a look, pity his weariness, rejoice that he had always been, and then plunged into the fierce battle with courage.

The figure sitting in that place was gradually covered with frost and snow, and the long eyelashes were all silver and white.

does not fall.

Suddenly a figure flashed on the city wall, and someone shouted, "I am Captain Lin's personal soldier!" Holding Lin Feibai's token, he climbed up to the city, carrying a person behind him.

The guards at the head of the city recognized him as Captain Lin's personal guard, so they all got out of the way, and as soon as the woman on his back hit the ground, he rushed towards the crowd of defenders.

Zhou Yuanzhi anxiously brushed aside one tired soldier after another, covered in iron armor.

No, no, neither.

She weaved through the crowd, frantically searching, regardless of the rain of arrows and artillery fire that followed her.

Lin Feibai is in the city, why is Lin Feibai not in the city!

Someone shouted behind her, but she couldn't hear it, and she didn't want to hear it.

…… She stopped suddenly.

Ahead, next to the corner tower, in the wind and snow, someone sat quietly, one leg propped up, hands idle on his lap, slightly hanging his head, as if he was just asleep.

It's so quiet that no one is disturbed by people passing by.

Zhou Yuanzhi was heartbroken in an instant.

She saw the snow on his eyelashes, and half of his face was covered in broken snow, neither melting nor falling.

Seeing someone pass by his side, one stumbled, almost planted on him, and he did not move.

It was as if the sky and the earth were suddenly silent, the artillery fire was far away, and the Xiongcheng was silent at this moment, and the flying snow swirling above the dome was silently pressed down.

In the whirlwind, she almost forgot where she was, when it was, and who she was.

Swindler......

You said you wanted me to wait for you to come back......

What do you say you have to say to me......

How can you break your word......

……

It's like a long life.

She slowly shifted her steps, one step at a time, to his side.

Kneeling, kneeling on the cold stone floor covered with snow and mud, stretched out his arms, slowly wrapped his arms around his waist, and gently rested his head on his shoulders.

It touches the coldness that seems to be impossible to heat for eternity.

She hugged him quietly, leaned on his shoulder, for the first time in her life, she did not encounter his avoidance and rejection, she thought, she should be happy, but why did the tears flow so endlessly, murmuring on his shoulder, and finally condensed into ice and snow.

Just freeze together, don't get up, freeze into a pair of sculptures, on the city wall of Huzhou, life after life, never thaw.

It's also counted together.

Inadvertently touched his other hanging hand, and something rolled down with a subtle clang.

It's curly grass.

Zhou Yuanzhi stared at the small ring for a long time.

She had heard of this thing, and she had seen it, and she envied it, and Xiao thought about it, but then she didn't want to.

Then at this moment, suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.

She stared at it for a long time, then picked up the little ring and slowly slipped it onto her finger.

Fly white.

You're going to leave it to me, aren't you?

Whether you want to leave it to me or not, anyway, at this moment, I put it on.

You can't say no anymore anyway.

Zhou Yuanzhi picked up the sword that fell to the ground again, clenched it, got up, and walked to the city step by step.

Zhang Yue, whose face was covered with black and gray, looked at her in a little surprise, and was about to ask something.

saw her sword on the city wall, facing the ten thousand troops under the city, and said calmly: "Zhou Yuanzhi." ”

"Lin Feibai is not dead, and he is here to defend the city."

……

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
