Chapter 296: When was the moon before the flowers?

If you look down from the highest Tibetan Ruifeng Peak of Wufeng Mountain, you can see that outside the official road, there are countless small roads, which are slender and vertical and horizontal on the pale yellow earth.

Those trails are either as thin as sheep's intestines, or crooked and twisted to make people's eyes dazzled, or mottled in color, and you can know that they are all pits, in short, they are not the roads that normal people will choose.

But if someone with excellent eyesight looks down at this moment, he can see that on the road as thin as a sheep's intestines, there are more than a dozen horses like flying ants, head to tail, and they cross the long road in the blink of an eye.

The speed was astonishing, and the smoke and dust raised by the horse's hooves struck the blades of grass on either side, and then were swept back to the knight's robe by the legs of the speeding horse.

Chinese is the strongest riding skill among the language guards, but he feels like a tired dog sticking out his tongue at the moment, obviously running out of the momentum of a madman, and the meat and bones in front of him are still getting farther and farther away.

The meat and bones are naturally His Royal Highness, the master of his family.

His Royal Highness King Yi is honored and noble, His Royal Highness King Yi is dust-free under his eyes, His Royal Highness King Yi is ignorant of everything, and His Royal Highness King Yi is in the court.

In everyone's minds, no matter which one His Royal Highness King Yi is, in short, it will not be the one that is in a hurry.

Chinese shook his head while whipping desperately.

What the world can't imagine, he has seen it twice, both times for Lord Wen.

It's really a brine point tofu, one thing drops one thing.

Chinese's eyes fell on the corner of Yan Sui's dusty robe, and he did not dare to remind him to change his clothes, only shouted: "Your Highness!" There is a tea pavilion in front of you, so let's have a cup of tea and something to eat! You haven't had a hot bite until yesterday! ”

Yan Sui did not answer, only stretched out a hand, sighed in Chinese, raised his hand and threw the dry food bag over, and was accurately caught by Yan Sui.

The dry food bag is beef jerky and dried apricots, as well as durable golden orange cake and millet fryer wrapped in paper bags. I also took the trouble to divide it into a small bag and a small bag, which is convenient to eat, and when I saw such ingenuity, I knew that it was all snacks made by Wen Zhen for Yan Sui, and Wen Zhen produced it, which was naturally not comparable to ordinary dry food, but Rao was so, sitting on a horse and eating dry food on this dusty trail would still not be a good enjoyment.

Especially for His Royal Highness, who will be disgusted with a broad bean under the cushion for ten layers of cushions, it can be said that it is a rare hardship.

So the guards, who have always enjoyed with His Highness, can only silently gnaw on the pot helmet behind him at this moment.

Dozens of riders generally swept by.

On the fork in the road ahead, in the tea pavilion, several white-faced and beardless men were anxiously turning around the tea pavilion, constantly looking at the way they came.

One person said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked us to wait at various rest points in advance, why hasn't His Royal Highness King Yi come now?" ”

One said: "Didn't you take the path?" ”

Another said flatly: "No way! His Royal Highness King Yi, the person who pays attention to enjoyment is outrageous, there are paths back to Wufeng Mountain around here, one is extremely narrow and dirty, one is detoured, and the other is full of pits and silt, no matter which one, His Royal Highness King Yi is impossible to walk! Maybe he was caught up by someone sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Let's wait! ”

The previous man said, "What if His Highness refuses to return to Beijing with us?" ”

The last man, with a sneer, looked back at the black-pressed sergeant behind him, and said, "What are these so many people eating?" ”

"But if you ...... What if Your Highness still ignores it......"

The man smiled strangely and did not answer.

I don't know if His Royal Highness King Yi has read the holy decree given to him.

Since the beginning of this year, there have been frequent frictions in the intersecting waters of Dongtang and Nanqi, and the prince led the Dongtang Navy to garrison the strait, and after several small battles, it was found that the other party could always seize the opportunity, suspecting that there were spies in the army.

Ji Huaiqing of the Ji family has followed the eldest prince to serve on the coast for many years, and it is inevitable to cultivate a group of cronies, Ji Huaiqing was overshadowed by Yan Suiyin above the Wuhai, and his legs were broken by Ji Huaiyuan, the eldest son of the concubine, and then Ji Huaiyuan took over everything from Ji Huaiqing, including the secret forces in this water army.

The generals of the navy who may have colluded with the enemy country found out by the eldest prince really also had secret contacts with Tianjing, and the final point was also to Yiwang Yansui, and about Yan Sui's various behaviors in Wuhai and plotting against Ji Huaiyuan, they had already been secretly reported to the court and His Majesty's desk.

This is a felony of treason, and the imperial court naturally wants to immediately summon His Royal Highness King Yi into Beijing, and according to the rules, once His Royal Highness receives this will, he cannot delay for a second.

Now His Royal Highness has accepted the order, but he has not opened it in public, and the prince has no chance to force him to return to Beijing immediately, but the prince also knows what Yan Sui is doing, and specially ordered people to wait in advance at the places where he must pass through to return to Wufeng Mountain. As long as Yan Sui can be caught in one place, no matter whether he follows him back to Beijing or resists the decree, it will always be the victory of the prince.

The chamberlain thought about intercepting His Royal Highness King Yi, the generous gift promised by the prince, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, and said meaningfully: "Even if His Highness doesn't leave here, it doesn't matter, after all, he can't reach Wufeng Mountain." ”

……

Jun Moxiao also took Wen Jintan to gallop on the mountain road.

Caiyun Caisang has been sent out of the mountain. Wen Jintan didn't waste time with Wen Zhen, so he readily agreed to go down the mountain, carried by the minions who had eaten the poison, and pointed to the sky when he met assassins and troops along the way, and went down the mountain safely, but halfway through, Wen Jintan insisted on getting off the man's back and changing the Caiyun quilt on his back.

Jun Moxiao escorted all the way, and when he approached the bottom of the mountain, he knocked the unlucky guy unconscious, and ordered Caiyun Caisang to hide in a hidden dark sentry cave at the foot of the mountain, which had been swept by the assassins, and he would not come to see it a second time.

Caiyun Caisang hid in a cave full of blood and corpses, waiting for the crisis to pass, while Jun Moxiao and Wen Jintan returned to the mountain.

Wen Zhen, the two best friends, never planned to inform Yan Sui. Wen Zhen was full of thoughts about asking him to avoid danger, but the two girlfriends thought that men didn't need it at this time, so what was the use of him?

His Royal Highness King Yi is lazy and arrogant on weekdays, and he can't wait to use Xiao Zhen as a pillow when he eats and drinks Xiao Zhen's sleep, and it is rare for him to have the opportunity to contribute, why stay out of the matter?

The two of them didn't even discuss, and they didn't express such dangerous personal thoughts to Wen Zhen, so they simply turned back to the mountain.

"Where are we going? To help Xiao Zhen? Jun Moxiao took Wen Jintan's hand and walked through the mountains, avoiding the heads that rolled out of the grass from time to time.

"Yes. But not to Feiliu Peak. Wen Jintan stayed by Wen Zhen's side for a long time, and he also developed immunity, and his face did not change his color, "Let's go to the mountain behind Suifeng and walk from the mountain road." ”

"Why?"

Wen Jintan did not answer immediately.

The small courtyard on the Feiliufeng platform, the canteen in front of the small courtyard, and the water mill by the canteen appeared in her eyes.

She ...... with water edging and him.

Few people know that the soybean milk in those canteens every morning needs to be slowly milled for a long time by the water mill the night before, and she has always been worried about sleeping less, and in the sleepless night, she slowly pushed the stone mill, watching the fresh soybeans being gently squeezed, cracked, and oozing white liquid, flowing along the blue-black stone mill ditch, and the old things and loneliness in her heart seemed to be broken silently in such a spring night when the flowers and shadows were shaking.

In the beginning, she grinded alone.

Later, in the shadow of the swaying flowers, there was a person who watched her grinding.

Later, the person standing in the shadow of the flowers on the spring night came out and helped her grind.

At first, she was wary of his presence.

Later, she got used to his presence.

Later, she would silently hand over a sweat towel when he was grinding.

Those white liquids slowly flowed down the stone mill, and the time was stretched at that moment, and the moonlight in the mountains always covered the Lan Qi, and the long figure was engraved on the ground whitened by the moonlight.

Shadows are wonderful things, two people are separated by a stone mill, but the shadows are entangled in you and me, and sometimes the wind of the valley creeps up and blows his hair off her shoulders.

Those silent and veining nights.

Those wordless expressions and hidden rejections.

She knew that he was the military advisor on this mountain, she knew that he had drunk her soy milk in the Cross Slope Bun Shop for a month, she felt that he was coming for Wen Zhen, but when he asked to see Wen Zhen, the reason was that he asked to marry Brother Gu as if he was joking.

At that time, she felt that it was just a close reason, and she was not solemn enough, and naturally she didn't take it to heart enough.

Later, she was still Brother Gu, he was the military advisor Xiao Lifeng, and others spent the moon before and after the moon every night, and she and he pushed and grinded under the moon before the flowers.

Later, he launched a tacit understanding, he stopped and she knew that he wanted to add beans, and when she raised her eyebrows, he knew that today's soy milk was enough.

Sometimes she sat on the side, watching him sweat slightly as he grinded, and thought amusefully, how could he be so bad as a big bandit in a bandit's den.

Sometimes she was in a daze, and the sweat gradually condensed into a round one, flowing slowly down the smooth forehead, over the equally smooth cheeks, the beautiful chin, and then along the handsome arc, through the sharp and clear Adam's apple......

She always withdrew her gaze at that moment, and he didn't seem to notice, but smiled when she looked down.

She will hand the handkerchief in time at this point, he is not polite, there is no fingertip touch, there is no relative shyness, each other is natural and calm, so calm that she sometimes is in a trance, I feel that such days have never been, and there will be in the future, like an ordinary couple, dyed in the red dust full of fireworks, without words, I know that each other will live together for a long time like this.

But then she knew it was false.

She is a passerby, an enemy, a boat in the flowing water of the green mountains.

The time before the moon is just the most unavoidable part of the vein.

Later, she broke the tacit silence a little stiffly and clumsily, and began to say something rootless.

He seemed to be a little disappointed in his eyes, but he still smiled slightly, and followed her words, but she found that he was born exquisite, that is, a topic that was not salty or light, and he could also say it interestingly, and those words in the quiet night were like wonderful hands, and they could also pluck the heartstrings.

Later, she was silent again, and he said it to him.

His topic surprised her a little.

He said that the setting of these five peaks, the origin of the Freemasonry, the blood of the predecessors and the pain of the knife in the hands of the people for decades, and the water on the mountain peak, where the mountain is seen.

Those words were as light as the wind at first, but she always remembered them, and as he said more and more, the speculation in her heart became more and more.

She didn't know why he said this, but she knew that it wasn't boring, so she remembered every word he said clearly.

Until tonight, when Wufeng Mountain was quietly bleeding under the darkness, she suddenly understood a lot of his words.

Unconsciously his thoughts were pulled out thousands of miles away, and then in Jun Moxiao's inexplicable gaze, he flew back with great stumbling.

She said slowly: "I think that I have finally understood a person today. ”

……

Time goes back to the moment when the men in black surrounded the Four Holy Churches.

Xiao Lifeng opened his eyes in the tent, and at that moment he didn't immediately go to take the sword he hung in front of the bed.

He quickly took out a black pill from the hidden drawer under the bed, but did not eat it immediately, only held it in his hand and stared at it for a long time, his eyes slightly gloomy.

After a while, the sound outside became more obvious, and his eyes sharpened, and he swallowed the pill without hesitation.

After a moment, a blood-like red on his face surged up to the bottom of his eyes, and the red faded in an instant, turning into a faint bluish-white, only under his eyes, there was still a glimmer of crimson.

He then stood up and took off his sword.

At the same time as picking up the sword, a black shadow shot in, and before anyone arrived, the sword light was already roaring like a meteor.

However, another brighter, brighter, and faster light took the first step to meet his knife, and in the sudden shattering sound, the sword light shattered into tens of millions of moons, screaming and swooping back towards the man in black, and a puff of blood-colored plum blossoms were instantly sprinkled on the ground.

In the next moment, Xiao Lifeng's figure had already swept past the blood-splattered man in black, and stepped up the corridor, and those black ghostly shadows turned over from behind the roof railing at the corner of the eaves, launching a desperate attack on the mysterious leader of the Freemasonry.

Xiao Lifeng is faster than everyone else, a sword opens the way in front, a sword is hidden behind the elbow, the lightning in front is like a thunderbolt, picking off countless blood flowers, hidden behind the elbow is a touch of cold electricity, quietly harvesting life, the figure of the corridor he walked through was shocked and shaken, and the blood stains all the way through the dark brown wood.

When the black-clothed man in the front yard found out that something was wrong, the Blackwood team also reacted, and these same-secret senior guards of the Freemasonry were silent, and pounced fiercely to intercept the assassin, but they heard Xiao Lifeng shouting: "Go and save people!" ”

"The Mujia team goes to Jintan, and Muyi goes to Mutan...... Don't worry about the masters, save the altar masters first, and then let the altar owners rescue and collect the brothers, how many can be saved...... "Xiao Lifeng stuffed a piece of paper and a token to a guard who rushed over, "After saving people, we will meet here, if you meet a few masters, you will listen to the orders of the masters, if the masters are not there......" He closed his eyes, "Just listen to Hu Sanniang!" ”

Before the men could be shocked and questioned, he had already crossed the corridor and pounced into the pile of assassins.

Xiao Lifeng's double swords are one long and one short, the long sword hall is bright, wide open and closed, the short sword is strange and faint, haunted like a thorn, all the way from the corridor to sprinkle blood, there are more and more black-clothed assassins around him, from a distance, Xiao Lifeng in white is like a little heart, and the black-clothed people besieged are like black petals, whether it is a crimson filament, it is constantly splashing blood.

He lured almost all the Assassins over, and led the crowd out, and the Blackwood team couldn't even keep up with him, so he had to give up the idea of protecting the big boss and scatter down the mountain to save people.

At this time, Jun Moxiao was pulling Wen Jintan to the direction of the mountain behind Suifeng, there was a fork in the road in front of them, divided into several directions, Wen Jintan took a deep look in the direction of Zangrui Peak, but resolutely pulled Jun Moxiao to the mountain road leading to Suifeng.

But this road winds over the mountain, with cliffs on one side and cliffs on the other, and there is no place to hide your body, so if you meet someone halfway, you will be in a dilemma.

For this reason, Jun Moxiao and Wen Jintan were both dressed in the clothes of the Mutual Aid League, dressed in men's clothes, and traveled in a hurry, seeing that they could reach Suifeng after turning a corner, and after entering the mountain, there were more places to hide, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

But then the two of them heard footsteps on the other side.

Jun Moxiao looked over and saw a group of black-clothed people coming down from the steps of Suifeng.

At this time, it was too late to retreat, Jun Moxiao and Wen Jintan could only meet it hard, stretched out their fingers to the sky, and signaled that they were slaughtered people.

The leader of the other party nodded, and walked over without taking a second look, Jun Moxiao just breathed a sigh of relief, and the steps of the person passing by suddenly paused, and the two women's hearts jumped, and they turned around together, and they saw a star of fireworks floating into the sky under the mountain in front of them.

The two of them were still inexplicable, not knowing that it was the fireworks code that Tu Jue signaled that all his people had withdrawn. The leading man in black had already turned around, and suddenly burst into shouting: "Take it!" ”

The moment he turned around, Wen Jintan, who was rubbing shoulders with him, reacted very quickly, and when he raised his hand, a cold light flashed between his fingers, and he didn't hesitate to wipe it on his throat!

The blood burst out, and the sound of "take" was only half of what he had to say, but after all, he didn't know martial arts, and although he shot in time and ruthlessly, it was not fast enough, so he still let him speak, and the rest of the people turned around when they heard the sound, and they saw the blood line in the leader's throat like a ribbon dragging up.

The Assassins pounced.

Wen Jintan let go of the corpse smashed down by the leader, and pulled Jun Moxiao to run.

Jun Moxiao reacted immediately, grabbed her with his backhand, threw out a packet of medicinal powder, and shouted: "Look at my poisonous powder!" ”

Everyone dodged one after another, and the two women had already rushed out of the crowd, neither of them chose to retreat as it seemed easier, but insisted on rushing in the direction of Suifeng.

couldn't run a few steps, listening to the sound of chasing and killing behind him, and seeing the fork in the road in front of him, Jun Moxiao pushed Jin Tan: "You hide first, I'll lead them away!" ”

Wen Jintan said: "You listen to the sound of chasing after you seems to be getting weaker?" ”

Jun Moxiao turned around, and saw a man in black suddenly stumbling and slipping into the abyss on a narrow mountain road, a man in black was laughing for no reason, and another person stopped and scratched, the exposed skin was already full of red rashes at some point, and the one who chased in front fell down with a bang without warning.

Jun Moxiao was stunned, and suddenly said, "Wen Dandan!" ”

Wen Dandan jumped out of the top of the head of a man in black and said hello.

Wen Jintan's face changed as soon as he saw it, "Dandan, go back!" Go back to Xiao Zhen! ”

Wen Dan Egg Bone rolled away.

Although it also felt that it was more necessary to go back to Xiao Zhen, it would listen to any cat or dog who came to order it, where was the face of the hundred-year-old Gu King?

Wen Jintan: "If you don't go back, your drinks, drinks, and snacks will be ...... in the future." Let Starling arrange it for you! ”

The shell of the colorful glass of the Wen Dan suddenly darkened.

Wen Dandan likes to drink poisonous wine and drug powder, naturally these things can't be eaten as snacks, so he retreats to the second, and the menu lists dark dishes such as poisonous snake gall cocktail, centipede leg pie, spider cake, poisonous ant pizza, etc., the raw materials of these disgusting things are naturally more disgusting and terrible, Wen Zhen is busy and not used to it; Cai Yun Cai Sang The two weak women can't deal with these, although Jun Moxiao is not afraid of these, he is disgusting, and he refuses to do it with his heart, but Wen Jintan can not only do this, but also make these dishes that can be completely put on heavy horror movies with ingenuity, color, and fragrance. To a certain extent, Wen Dandan's appetite is supported by Wen Jintan.

The canteen boss spoke, and Wen Dandan's gray rolled down the head of the man in black and disappeared in a flash.

Both women breathed a sigh of relief.

Wen Zhen was more dangerous there, but Wen Dandan was sent to protect them, the two of them were more anxious, they climbed up the stone steps of Suifeng, and halfway through the climb, they were diverted from the forest, Wen Jintan led the way in front, she obviously had not been to Suifeng, but the road seemed very familiar, although Jun Moxiao was a little puzzled, she didn't ask more, and followed her obediently.

After that, the two also met several groups of people in black, but because it was dark and dense, the two found and hid in time, and the other party did not notice their existence.

At that moment, she suddenly heard a scream behind her.

……
