Chapter 126: A Song of Parting
Yu Ranqing got up and walked out quickly, but when she came back with a guqin in her arms, Weiyang was already dressed and standing in front of the window of the outer hall, her eyes drifting to the night sky outside the window, and her expression was gloomy.
Placing the piano on the bookcase, "Famous nameless? Spectrum and spectrum? ”
Weiyang didn't turn back, the white jade piccolo approached the pale lips that were almost bloodless, the flute played briskly, and Yu Ranqing closed her eyes and listened, carefully experiencing the rhyme.
The sound of the flute suddenly turned sharply from melodious and crisp, with some broken sorrow in the sonorous voice, as if it was infatuated and resentful.
Yu Ranqing couldn't help but think of those things after running away from marriage and leaving home, and the person she was thinking about would never see each other again in her life, and she suddenly felt sad, and the formalities of the low-brow letter continued; The sound of the piano is inherited in the sound of the flute, one yin and one yang, one welcome and one send, without the score but better than the limit of the score, interpreting the most real feeling in the heart.
Suddenly, the sound of the flute seems to break free from sentimentality, and a high and low sound can make people's blood excited, like a soldier on the battlefield in the rain, Xiao Kill solemn; It is like a golden iron horse on the battlefield, with swords and guns firing.
Yu Ranqing was encouraged by her, and the broken lines of the snake's belly under the seven strings seemed to be bewitched, and she was happy.
A flute and a piano, all played are heart sounds.
Listen to the most noble sons and young men in Eastern Chu across the wall.
At this time, the wine stopped, and everyone saw themselves in armor and prancing horses and whips rushing to kill on the battlefield, rising again and again in the pile of dead people, and erecting the banner of Chu again.
The end of a song.
Thrilling is not enough to describe the state of mind of everyone at this time.
Not to mention the unruly character who went and returned, he was so excited that he secretly hated that he had missed out on her many past that he had never known, and that everything that should have belonged to him after the first meeting outside the Songjiang Mansion.
Qin Yan was just below the window of Qingqi Winery Weiyang. After leaving in a hurry, he was alone in the dark night for a long time, suppressing the fear of losing her, and couldn't help but want to see her again with a feeling of reluctance. If it really ends in death, he would rather go to the battlefield tomorrow and fight hard, than watch her leave, at least he will not be worse than death.
"Qing'er, can you borrow the piano?" Weiyang turned around and asked in a low voice.
Yu Ranqing left her seat and helped Weiyang to sit down.
A trembling and a cover, a wind and a rain, turned out to be a song of its own; It seems familiar and strange, I want to catch it but can't catch it, I want to give it up but I can't give it up. The strings tremble, the sound is sorrowful, there is no sigh and no retention......
The end of a song.
Weiyang got up and dragged her big belly that was not compatible with her emaciation and disappeared silently at the door of the inner room.
Yu Ranqing was surprised that Weiyang had hidden her exquisite skills for more than ten years, and she had also seen her play the flute but it was not as shocking as it is today, and her heart was difficult to calm down for a long time. secretly thought that she had been practicing hard for ten years with the Tianyin Qin, but she was not as casual as her.
After a long time, no sound came from that room, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and involuntarily took the wine cup in front of them and drank it all, but no one made a sound.
If the previous ensemble stirred up thousands of waves, it was just in time for the battlefield years, and everyone could hear the blood. But what is really touching is the latter song, which seems to be parting and seems to be in the sky; It seems to go and is invisible, like a reckless wasteland with no end.
Qin Yan's heart was torn apart by the sound of the qin, and at this time, even if he gave away the territory of Nanzhao, he couldn't stitch up the wound, let alone the missing after the sewing. He didn't know what he had lost, but he could deeply feel the distress.
He had never seen her play the piano, and she said it was a lullaby...... It was her house, who was seeing off whom?
Since then, a hole has been broken in his heart, and he has become colder by three points, just because of today's frightening parting.
On the fifth watch, Dongfang Fengjue entered Weiyang's room. After all, when it comes to life and death, I don't know if there will be a next meeting, and some things can no longer be suppressed.
Weiyang was neatly dressed and sat upright behind the bookcase in the outer hall, holding an ancient book in his hand, burning Lu'er's special soothing incense, and the room was clean and elegant. The door was open, and she seemed to know he was coming, and the tea on the table was boiling and smoking.
The affection in Dongfang Fengjue's eyes was so thick that he couldn't dissolve, and he whispered softly: "The body is not good to nourish, and the book can't be read one day, why bother with so many gods, it's not fun to be tired." ”
Weiyang sighed in his heart, this person will always be so elegant and calm, and he will never see him lose his temper. How could she not read the liking in his eyes? In the past, she could pretend to be stupid, but since he caught her in the water at Mochou Lake that day, she knew that she couldn't hide.
He threw down the scroll in his hand, walked up to him with one hand on his waist, and took the initiative to send his bulky body into his arms.
Dongfang Fengjue carefully hugged her, his eyes were full of sentimentality, and he said in a dumb voice: "Take care of yourself and your children, and wait for us to return triumphantly!" ”
Weiyang withdrew from his arms and said with a smile: "Brother Jue, the old monk has told you your fortune, and Jiren has his own celestial phenomena!" ”
Dongfang Fengjue also smiled, glanced at Weiyang deeply, turned around decisively, and the steps of departure fell steadily step by step.
Mu Qinghan had a lot of advice, but in the end, Yu Ranqing was really uneasy when he saw him, and took the initiative to stay and take care of Weiyang, so he turned around and left step by step.
He was convinced that Yan'er's power and strategy were not inferior to anyone in Eastern Chu, and Wuling City had her and Feng Shen there, even if the Western Tang soldiers were under the city, they would not be afraid.
Dongfang Fengjue is dressed in a crimson brocade robe, rich and handsome.
Mu Qinghan followed, the black robe and snow-white underwear were all new, and Yu Ranqing didn't sleep last night, and the five drums were about to be made out.
Chu Jin changed from the bright Yao yellow robe in the past, and changed into an inconspicuous brown satin robe. He was born with a dignified appearance, coupled with his special identity, he has a little more unrestrained freedom, loves to wear brighter clothes, and always gives people a squishy image. Now that he has changed his battle robe, he has suddenly become more heroic and solemn.
Jing Liang is three or two years older than these people, he acts steadily and thoughtfully, and there is a faint evil spirit between his eyebrows, and the six princes of Dongchu also respect him as the leader. Although he had been in the army day and night, he had a light night's sleep, but after freshening up, he was a little less dusty than when he first came yesterday, and he wore a peacock blue tailor-made robe, which made him more and more mysterious.
Weiyang stood by the window, biting his lip and staring at the galloping horses for a while, and then lowered his head to stare at his round belly, his eyebrows crumbled into a dead knot, and his face was unwilling.
Shen Luochen was beside her, and he also watched the billowing smoke and dust fade away, unable to read the emotion.
After everyone disappeared, Weiyang entered the back building through the dark passage.
The afterimage hurriedly followed her to sit down, "Young master, all the troops of the Western Tang Dynasty outside Fengxiang Pass have withdrawn, and the dragon envoy came to report last night, and now there are three columns of soldiers in the west of the city." In addition to the men and horses brought by Tang Feng earlier and the withdrawal of troops from Fengxiang Pass later, there is also a mysterious force that is unknown in number, totaling 500,000. ”
Weiyang was a little surprised, "Why is it only 500,000?" ”
"The western neighbor of the Western Tang Dynasty, the Dog Rong State, invaded the border and sent 300,000 troops." Cang Xin poured a cup of rebrewed tea and put it in front of Weiyang, "Half a year ago, Dog Rong saw that the Western Tang Dynasty was weak in military service, so he took advantage of the fire to rob two border cities, which annoyed the lord of the Western Tang Dynasty. ”
Qing Jin spread the topographic map in his hand on the table, pointed to Wuling City and looked at Weiyang, "Young master, the Western Tang soldiers are coming to the city but not attacking, are they waiting for the benefit of the fisherman?" ”
Cang Xin shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be!" It stands to reason that the Western Tang Dynasty is the most powerful country in the world, and its military and financial resources are stronger than those of the Eastern Chu. It seems that the alliance with Nanzhao before was not for Wuling City, isn't it ......?"
"Hmph, even if he wants to attack, am I still afraid that he won't succeed? The fish dies and the net is broken, and it also depends on the means. Weiyang snorted in a muffled voice, "The monarch of the Western Tang Dynasty is a master, and the national strength will only get stronger and stronger. ”
"Young master, Xitang won't be stupid enough to wait for our army to win and then fight? It's a good time to be empty in the city! Qing Jin was amused by the first half of his words.
Weiyang looked at him seriously, and didn't look away until he looked at Qingjin.
"Cang Xin, from today onwards, take over the West City Gate, share some of the burden for Brother Ember, and I'll go on a trip later." Weiyang gave the order in a deep voice.
Cang Xin stood up, "Obey the young master's order!" ”
Qingjin and Feng Sai were silent beside Cang Xin.
Weiyang pondered for a long time, his eyes drifting obliquely towards the afterimage, "Shadow, how is the capital?" ”
When asked, it didn't matter, Qing Jin couldn't help but laugh at first.
"Young master, Sijiu has become a concubine, congratulations."
The afterimage moved his lips and did not speak.
Weiyang's bad heart was committed again, with a smile on his face, "That's over, my girl must not die of sadness, it seems that she has to find someone for her as soon as possible to match An An's heart." ”
"Don't, don't, young master, you have to be in such a hurry, Sijiu has no intention of being a concubine." Qingjin followed suit. "No, young master, when did you know?" Qing Jin's eyes widened suddenly.
Weiyang's big eyes turned to Qingjin with a smile that made people's hearts tremble.
Qing Jin suddenly shuddered, "I still have something to do, let's go first!" Everyone ran out of the door and was still mourning for Sijiu, muttering: "Brother, you ask for more blessings, the young master has to protect the calf tightly, it's not a good thing for you to covet her maid......"
"Didn't plant!" Feng Xi coldly scolded Qing Jin's back.
The afterimage helped Weiyang, who was about to stand up, and walked towards the dark passage where he came.
Entering the door of the secret passage, Weiyang suddenly remembered something, "Seal the sacrifice, collect Chu Li's secret forces, and install some useful people, it won't take long." ”
"Obey the young master's order!" Feng Sai turned around and left, and before Weiyang came back to his senses, he was gone.
Three days later, the Qixia Pass was completed.
Mu Qinghan took Qi Yan and ordered Tianqi, and 10,000 horses headed for Hades King Ze.
The Nanzhao soldiers have retreated to the queen of Hades, taking the natural danger as the separation, showing off their might.
Mu Qinghan performed a supreme light skill, and just touched the mud surface with his toes and floated around the swamp where he couldn't see the edge, as Yan'er said, this swamp was cast in a formation, and the danger was not only under the swamp, but also on the other side of the swamp.
"Xiang Tianqi, set up camp here today!" Mu Qinghan gave an order, and then politely called Qi Yan: "Master Qi, how about you go with me?" ”
"Gongzihan doesn't need to be polite, it's a blessing that you are willing to carry it, I should say hard work to you!" Qi Yan respectfully detained the ground.
Mu Qinghan hurriedly stretched out his hands to help, "My brother, let's go!" ”
Hades Ze is named because of its vast and boundless, muddy and soft water abundance and nowhere to settle, implying that entering Ze is like entering the underworld, and there is no possibility of turning back.
"Brother Mu, Nanzhao's 300,000 troops can come and go freely in Ze, and the skill of the national teacher's Qimen is not easy to think of." Qi Yan was three steps behind Mu Qinghan, stepping on the road he paved on the swamp with the technique of Qimen, and the place where his feet fell heavily was actually flat.
Mu Qinghan walked all the way to find changes in the formation, bypassed dangerous hidden piles and traps, and paved the road that could pass the carriage to the middle of the swamp.
"Qi Gongzi, feel the changes under your feet, don't use internal force."
It's so smooth! Instinctive perception is unbelievable, and this swamp has no meaning if it is not strange.
Qi Yan really put his whole heart on the foothold, the road was paved very solidly and steadily, and he didn't mention the slightest internal strength, and he really thought he was stepping on the ground. Some hesitated, "Brother Mu, this Hades King Ze is such a child's play?" ”
Mu Qinghan still didn't look back, and focused on advancing on Hades Ze.
Suddenly, he let out a "huh", stopped, and his eyes poured out. Suddenly realized: "No wonder, it turns out that the real Hades King Ze is here." ”
Qi Yan had already landed beside him after hearing his surprise, and his eyes fell on the endless dark swamp with his gaze, and he didn't see the slightest difference.
Mu Qinghan stretched out his arms on the spot and jumped ten steps backwards to stop, ripped off the corner of his robe and threw it into the swamp, the piece of fabric was wet but did not sink, covering the underwater mud.
He returned to where he had left and threw the remaining piece into the muddy water in front of him.
Qi Yan's eyes watched as the fabric swirled and was rolled into the mud, and he couldn't find it again. He was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time for him to speak, "This ......"
After Mu Qinghan walked back for about a dozen steps, his eyes looked in the southeast direction, and re-spread the road around the dark pile in the formation, thinking in his heart: When the smoke came and went in the past, didn't it pass by the eyes of the Hades King?
Seeing that the road was paved to the opposite bank, Mu Qinghan stopped his hand and cast a light gong to float towards the symmetrical position of the Hades Eye on the west side.
It was only a moment before he came back and landed beside Qi Yan, "One-eyed Hades King Ze, what does Qi Gongzi think?" ”
The road under Qi Yan's feet is no longer stable, and he can't carry it alone. Looking at Mu Qinghan's path back and forth, "This is illogical, Tai Chi gives birth to two yi, and two yi gives birth to four elephants." ”
Mu Qinghan sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and laid out the calculation in his heart, and calculated quickly.
It didn't stop.
Qi Yan didn't dare to disturb him, and looked at the endless swamp around the two of them uneasily.
An hour later, Mu Qinghan got up.
"Brother Mu?" Qi Yan hurriedly approached.
Mu Qinghan didn't answer, he flew towards the eyes of the Hades King on the spot, turned around for a long time and floated back.
"Trouble!" Mu Qinghan's voice was low, "This array is arranged by the initiator according to the prime number, there is no law to be found, the paving is simple, but it is difficult to march a large army." ”
"Exactly, the second half of the road is not smooth enough, and it is difficult for one person to walk." Qi Yan nodded.
