Chapter 308: Return to Dust

Soon after the death of the first emperor, the new emperor was assassinated again, and the internal and external troubles alternated, and the Dayuan Dynasty fell into unprecedented chaos and crisis.

At this time, Wen Moqing should not have left, once the throne was vacant, it was inevitable that there would be unscrupulous people who coveted it, leaving the imperial concubine Long Yue'er and the lonely queen Tang Jinyi in the palace, and the degree of danger was self-evident; Second, it is difficult for those civil and military generals who were summoned by him to fully trust the two women, and the only second prince Wen Moshu who has the qualifications to inherit the unification is still in the Wanxia garrison camp, and he is the one who can best condense the harem of the former dynasty in the imperial capital.

However, after weighing it again and again, Wen Moqing resolutely chose to return to the southern front, leaving Jun Wunian to help deal with the aftermath and embark on the journey home alone.

He was a little anxious, not because of the weakness of the battle in the south, but because of an unexpected letter, a letter from the enemy army in Wanxia, telling him to take care of his worries.

Although there was no signature, Wen Moqing quickly guessed who the letter was, and the familiar notes were still as clean as before, but with a sense of exhaustion.

Now, what should the relationship with Helian Ming be called? Is it an enemy, a friend, or a friend or foe?

Or should they become strangers who were once very familiar and intimate?

Some things are difficult to grasp, he decided to completely forget Helian Mingyan, and did his best to do so, but Helian Mingyan will always appear inadvertently, reminding him again and again that the person he once loved is now close at hand, but far away in the sky.

"You're still thinking about her?" One night when I was with us before, Lou Qianhan seemed to have asked this inadvertently.

Wen Moqing thought for a moment before answering.

"Sort of, it's limited to the feeling that acquaintances don't want to be enemies - but if she dares to fight the idea of leaving worries, it doesn't matter if she is an enemy, as long as I'm okay with worries, I don't care about anything else."

Thinking about his words at the time, Wen Moqing gasped, and had the urge to block his face and burrow into the cracks in the ground.

Using chess as an excuse, three glasses and two light wines drunk him and then put out a few words in his heart, this kind of thing Lou Qianhan has tried and tested since he was a child.

What made Wen Moqing even more unhappy was that he knew that he would fall into the trap every time, and he even said that kind of thing without blushing or beating his heart.

Words are not worried, this is a curse that he can't break in this life.

Looking down at the cloth bag hanging from the saddle of the galloping horse, Wen Moqing smiled slightly, he could even imagine Yan Liwu's surprised and slightly shy expression when he saw this pile of gifts, which was also one of the reasons why he was in a hurry to rush to Wanxia.

I want to see her, I want to hold her, I want to kiss her, I want to hold her hand and never let go, and I will never leave for the rest of my life.

Wen Moqing, who was so immersed in his thoughts, forgot everything around him, and marched in the direction of Wanxia at the fastest speed that the horse's four hooves could run, and the surrounding mountains and forests retreated rapidly, and even the post station on the side of the road flashed by, so he didn't see the familiar figure in the tea shop of the post station, nor did he hear the footsteps of someone seeing him hurrying out on horseback.

"Moqing-" On the empty post road, Yan Li looked at the person and the horse who had gone away in the dust, and the call gradually turned into a murmur.

It was too far away, and it was impossible for Wen Moqing, who was out of sight in an instant, to hear her voice.

"Is it really Moqing?" Mu Jiuge followed him to the outside of the tea shop, looked at the dust from afar and shook his head, "I missed it." I think it's better to forget it, Moqing must be in a hurry to get back to the south now, and we have to leave sooner. ”

Yan Li nodded gloomily, and looked at Wen Moqing on the road to leave the direction, still reluctant to give up.

How long has it been since you and Wen Moqing have seen each other? I can't remember, I can't count.

The thought of continuing to maintain a state of separation makes me feel uncomfortable, so I might as well not think about it.

Sighed and walked into the tea shop, and just now he praised the delicious tea and couldn't drink half a sip, Yan Li stared at the table in a daze.

Mu Jiuge lifted his eyelids and looked at them a few times, and stretched his waist all over the ground: "Miss Yan really still wants to see Moqing, right?" ”

"Just wanted to ask him...... How have you been lately. "Talking about lies that I don't believe, I still can't lift my spirits.

"Chu Gongzi's meaning should be understood. It is a critical period, Mo Qing can't half-heartedly miss the right thing, if he finds out Miss Yan's strange illness, I'm afraid that the burden in my heart will be nine more points - of course, this is what Chu Gongzi said, not me. Shrugging his shoulders, Mu Jiuge seemed to disagree a little, "All of Chu Gongzi's thoughts are to get rid of distracting thoughts and be absolutely rational, but feelings, there should always be some impulsiveness and irrationality...... What do I mean, can Miss Yan understand? ”

Whether it is strategy or the overall situation, Mu Jiuge has never agreed with Chu Ci's approach, in his opinion, it is undoubtedly a very cruel thing to let Wen Moqing and Yan Liwu, the newlywed couple who have been separated for a long time, deliberately keep their distance.

The silence lasted for a long time, and Yan Li sighed lightly and spoke, but the decision surprised Mu Jiuge.

"Prepare to hurry, get through the difficulties early before the dust settles, otherwise Mo Qing and I can only get together less and leave more like this. I can understand the kindness of Gongzi Chu, if I implicate the overall situation for the sake of my own impulse at this time, I will not have the face to see Mo Qing and my father under Jiuquan in the future. ”

Thinking of a person, watching her loved one pass by herself, this kind of unwilling drinking song does not understand, but she can understand by looking at Yan Li's low eyebrows and gloomy eyes, she is enduring with all her strength.

Stubborn and strong, what else can be said?

That day, Yan Liwu didn't chase Wen Moqing after all.

Mu Jiuge didn't know if what he did was right or wrong, he not only felt sorry for the miss of a pair of children, but also secretly praised Yan Li's calm character, it seemed that there was nothing he could do more than protect Yan Liwu all the way to prevent her from suddenly falling into a coma again.

And when the accident happened suddenly, the world-famous Zhongzhou heroes couldn't even protect their worries.

On the way from Wanxia to the north, you must pass through a narrow passage called Slender Bamboo Ridge, where the terrain is complex and dangerous, surrounded by mountains, and there are unfathomable dense forests that block the view, and it is the most likely place to be ambushed and attacked.

Mu Jiuge didn't think that anyone would be bored to come to ambush him and Yan Liwu, out of caution, he still walked in front of Yan Liwu like a firm guard, and quickly turned around when there was a strange noise behind him, without hesitation.

It's just that he didn't expect that the trap that was waiting for him here and his worries was so deep.

The rumbling sound was accompanied by a trembling of the earth, and at first Mu Jiuge thought that he was unlucky and had encountered a natural disaster, but after turning around quickly, he found that this hairy earth movement was not a disaster from heaven, but a man-made creation.

After four muffled explosions, the four corners of the flat ground collapsed, and the four small collapses caused the whole land to sink suddenly, as if the land had been hollowed out long ago.

Mu Jiuge and Yan Liwu rode horses one after the other, and the distance between the two was only two horses, but the gap between the two horses put the two in different situations - Mu Jiuge was safe and sound, and under the feet of Liwu, it was the center of the sinking land.

"Miss Yan! Hand to me! ”

The land was sinking fast, and I don't know how deep the man-made hole was and what dangers it hid. At the last moment, Mu Jiuge decisively jumped up from his horse, ran in the direction of Yan Liwu with a little volley on his toes, and stretched out his arm far away to try to bring Yan Liwu up.

Yan Li was not good at driving horses, and her light skills were average, and the horses under her were frightened and kept raising their hooves and neighing, which increased the difficulty for her to quickly escape from the dangerous place.

Seeing Mu Jiuge rushing over, Yan Liwu hurriedly stretched out his hand, but at the moment when the fingertips of the two were about to touch, a ghostly figure flew out and rushed straight towards Mu Jiuge.

If Mu Jiuge didn't hide, he would definitely be hit by that person. Yan Liyu caught a glimpse of the attacking figure approaching rapidly, gritted his teeth, retracted his hand suddenly, raised his horsewhip and waved it in reverse towards the ghostly figure.

Seeing that Yan Li retracted his hand and couldn't reach it anymore, Mu Jiuge raised his eyebrows in a hurry, but he crossed it with his strength, and it was impossible to stay in mid-air, so he had no choice but to withdraw and retreat to safety. The figure that attacked Mu Jiuge did not continue to pursue, and stepped on the trunk like a dexterous whirling swallow and turned around and returned to the top of Yan Liwu's head, and slashed down mercilessly with a volley palm.

The more anxious you are, the easier it is to get trapped. The horse trampled in fright, half of its four hooves had sunk into a hollow hole, and the crazy bumps made it impossible for Yan to get out smoothly, and his left foot was stuck in the stirrup. The wind above his head was piercing, the killing intent was approaching, and Yan Liwu couldn't break free and could only turn sideways to the side, but the wind in the palm of the man's palm came again like a shadow, and this time Yan Liwu couldn't dodge anymore, and he took a blow to his shoulder.

Between the lightning and flint, the ground has completely collapsed, and through the falling sand and gravel, a huge hole in the ground can be faintly seen, and Yan Liwu and the horses fall inward together.

Mu Jiuge took the long sword from the horseback and shook off the scabbard, turned around and ran towards Yan Liwu for a while, and the ghostly figure stopped chasing after a successful blow, and fought with Mu Jiuge around Yan Liwei, depending on the situation, he planned to stop Mu Jiuge, so that Yan Liwu could not be helped and sink into the hole.

Mu Jiuge's kung fu is not the best in the rivers and lakes, but it is not bad, the figure of the helpless ambush is extremely weird, I can't guess where I'm going, I can't figure out the way out, every time I want to dodge it, I will be quickly cut off from the road, forcing Mu Jiuge to have no way to start, there is no way to get close to Yan Liwu, let alone help get out of danger.

The man-made cave that collapsed, at just the right time, often lone water like a ghost around Lian Song......

Yan Li's worries are clear in her heart, she and Mu Jiuge are in Lian Song's ambush.

However, it was useless to know more at the moment, the wound on her shoulder almost incapacitated her, and until the last moment, she still couldn't get rid of the severe pain and the entangled stirrups, and watched her vision enter darkness.

The endless grappling finally ended with the withdrawal of Lone Water, and Mu Jiuge didn't care to pursue, dropping his sword and stumbling to the edge of the cavern, but there was nothing below but quiet earth, weeds, and boundless darkness.
