Chapter 17: The Impermanence of Life (I)

The Han general who was in the court must be a fake. The old thief of Whampoa was too heavy on guarding people, so he was not afraid to kill a fierce general, and finally ended up destroying the Great Wall.

However, which emperor in history has no suspicion. General Han was a great general of the former dynasty and repeatedly repelled the invasion of the barbarians at the border passes. It is in today's Hua Dynasty, because of the country's long-term serious internal friction, all kinds of resources, all kinds of officials are in short supply, especially the outstanding generals who lead troops to fight, it is even more difficult to find.

Later, Huangpu Feilong looked at the thatched house, and invited General Han. However, the emperor is the emperor after all, when everything in the country tends to be stable, the Hua Dynasty and the Northern Liao establish allied relations, and because of the suppression and tactics of General Han, the fierce generals of the Southern Liao State also tend to be none, and the threat is greatly reduced.

That's why there is this cunning rabbit dead lackey cooking, no, it should be said that the cunning rabbit is not dead, and he is going to kill the dog who tries his best.

An indescribable sense of helplessness rose up in my heart. Hua Dynasty ...... No, it must have been a long time ago when he was born, he had lived in this rich and beautiful land, and in his heart, he still did not want to be in the fire of war.

However, he doesn't force it, there are some things that fate has long been doomed, even if he can't force it, in the end, he can only end up sad.

He has gone through too many experiences like this, so he always stops Xue'er's persistence because he can't do anything, in fact, fear of danger is secondary, after all, he has an aura that this world does not have, and his body and ability are naturally incomparable to these ordinary people.

It's just that he was afraid that Xue'er couldn't stand the cruelty of that moment when she couldn't stand the court. I am even more afraid that because of her stubbornness, she will fall into her own demons, and in the end she can only spend the rest of her life in pain.

Ling Chen opened his eyes and saw that Xue'er was looking at him in a trance, and he looked very entangled, presumably thinking about going to the Dharma Field, but he didn't dare to disturb himself rashly.

The sky outside is getting more and more gloomy, there is a strong wind blowing non-stop, bringing up the branches outside to make a "rustling" sound, from time to time there are heavy objects being blown down, falling "dong dong" sound, knocking people's hearts beating, making the already dull mood even heavier.

As if seeing that she opened her eyes, Xue'er's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward and said, "Master, I'...... I want to go to the Dharma field. There was hesitation but full stubbornness in his eyes.

Sure enough, this is the request. Ling Chen deliberately kept a straight face and looked at Xue'er: "When we left, what did you promise to be a teacher?" ”

"I ...... I...... I ......" Xue'er said three times in a row, and she didn't know how to say it, she did promise Ling Chen before leaving the branch altar that if she secretly went to the law field, she would become a puppy. She didn't mention going to the Dharma field, she thought she was mentally ready, she thought she was already open, and she could face her father's death calmly.

However, when I really got here, I was restless. She knew that she couldn't save her father, if she couldn't take one last look at him, but cowered here like she was now. She can't forgive herself, she will look down on herself for the rest of her life.

"Master." Xue'er looked at Ling Chen, who seemed to be angry, and said gently: "Xue'er really wants to send her father to the end." Master, you know what? When I was young, my father was not always at home, but when he came back, he would play with me on his lap and tell me many stories about famous generals, the heroes who fought on the battlefield and the horse leather shroud, and the soldiers who fought on the front line for the homeland and family behind them.

Master, you know what? I know that I love my father very much, although he sometimes has a fierce face and will scare me with family methods, but my father really loves me.

My father once told me that this life is very short, and if you don't want to regret it when you leave this world, you should do things with your heart. Everyone will have more or less fear in their hearts, in fact, it is just imagination, when you really face it, you will find that what you have always thought is very difficult, in fact, it becomes very simple, at least, easier than you imagined. ”

Xue'er paused for a moment, looked closely at Ling Chen's softened face, was overjoyed in her heart, and said while it was hot: "Master, I will be responsible for my choice, if there is really an accident in the law field, the master can not take care of me." ”

Ling Chen stood up and reached out to scrape her nose: "You! A ghost elf, knowing that his task has not been completed, he wants to run, why is he afraid of pain? ”

"I'm just worried about the master." Xue'er lowered her head, her own plan, the master was really clear. One sentence is broken. She knew that the medicine introduction task she had promised had not yet been completed, and for this only value of herself, presumably the master would not watch her hang up.

Besides, she has always believed that the master is a good person, at least for now, he has not done anything bad to herself. I have never deceived myself, and I am almost 100% satisfied with my own requirements.

"Alright, alright, a mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter." Ling Chenwen smiled and walked out of the door: "I promised, tomorrow we will go to the Dharma field, now, rest early." ”

Cher opens her mouth wide, tomorrow? Is the master joking? The date posted on the emperor's list is obviously today. She hurriedly pulled Ling Chen over: "Master, don't be joking." "Looking at the sky outside, I'm afraid it's too late. She cried with a face: "Master, it's too late. ”

Ling Chen turned his head and smiled warmly: "It's too late, listen to the master, and have a good rest." Early tomorrow morning, the master will come to change your appearance. ”

This...... The appearance of the master is not like a joke, but ...... Xue'er really can't believe that Whampoa Feilong will joke about the royal list, you must know that this imperial list is also the face of the royal family. Especially, a person with a good face like Whampoa Feilong, especially.

Previously, when she was in the palace, there was a royal clerk who wrote a wrong word on the holy decree, and as a result, the whole house was copied.

Such an emperor would really make a fuss about the emperor's list notice.

Xue'er is still a little tender after all, she only wants to understand one of them, but she doesn't know that no matter what type of emperor she is, she is cowardly.

In the end, what they are most afraid of is that they will be crowned with high merit, and they are afraid that their throne will not be guaranteed, and the throne of Huangpu Feilong is not so glorious, and his personality is extremely suspicious, so he naturally attaches more importance to this aspect.

Sent away the master.

Xue'er sat at the head of her bed, unable to rest, she was very confused and annoyed. The master never deceived her, and thought that this matter was true.

The weather outside is getting more and more gloomy, the wind is blowing harder, Xue'er walked to the window, pushed the window open, and the wind with rain blew in, which was cool to the heart, but there was another sense of refreshment, but the mask on this face was still a little uncomfortable to wear, but, just in case, it was better for her to wear this mask.

She stood by the window for about an hour.

The sound of loud gongs and drums came from outside.

"Bell, bell, bell...... The government arrested the key criminals, and the cadres quickly avoided entering the house and prepared their own identity certificates. ”

The sound is loud, and the gongs and drums are noisy.

Xue'er was stunned, how could this Xingtai County even arrest people and criminals, it was so different.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"Who?" Xue'er asked vigilantly, it shouldn't be the master who knocked on the door.

"It's me, Xiao Qi." A familiar voice came from outside the door.

It turned out to be Xiao Qi. Xue'er put her mind at ease, she stepped forward to open the door, Xiao Qi's face was a little pale, his eyes were anxious, as soon as he saw himself open the door, he hurriedly said: "Miss, things are a little wrong, one of our brothers who went to the law field to inquire about the news was arrested, and it is likely to leak Miss's whereabouts."

Miss, we have to transfer. Xiao Qi's words were all anxious.

Xue'er was a little hesitant, she really didn't know much about this Xiao Qi, she only knew that Xiao Qi had a good relationship with her master, and it seemed that it was more than just an organization.

Although, it seems that she should be able to believe such a person. However, you can't help but guard against it, after all, the amount of 100,000 taels is very tempting, and a smart person like Xiao Qi may really know his identity from a few words.

The only person she could confirm her belief was the master.

"Xiao Qi, where is my master? Is there something wrong? Cher asked hurriedly.

"Special Envoy Ling, he went to the government to find someone." Xiao Qi's head was sweating: "Miss, let's go quickly, Special Envoy Ling will be fine." ”

Xue'er knocked off Xiao Qi's hand that was pulling towards her, her face turned pale. Xiao Qi was stunned, Xue'er saw it in her eyes, she was a little angry at Xiao Qi's rude actions, and even more suspected that this stingy person had bad intentions. If it's really dangerous, the master will definitely come back and bring himself.

"Miss......" Xiao Qi stomped his feet: "I don't have any other meaning, if I don't leave, I really can't go, the guards of Huangpu Feilong have already arrived outside the city." ”

"I want to see the master." Xue'er stood in place, this Xiao Qi has no martial arts, as long as he is unwilling to go out, he can't do anything about himself.

Unfortunately, Cher missed one thing.

Sometimes there is more than one companion, and more often, it seems that people who are not lethal are the most surprising.

Xiao Qi suddenly rushed towards Xue'er, she subconsciously avoided it, and suddenly, there was a numbness on her right shoulder, and she looked at it, and a small silver needle pierced it.

"Xiao Qi, ...... you" Xue'er's eyes widened, and in the blink of an eye, her whole body was numb, and her legs and feet didn't listen to her own call. The suspicion of this Xiao Qi in her heart was even deeper, and she opened her mouth to ask, but she couldn't even open her mouth.

I was completely controlled.

She could clearly feel that she was being carried into the carriage by two people, and then the carriage ran very fast. Xue'er bounced off the horse several times, and her body bounced off her mount, if it wasn't for Xiao Qi to take care of her, she was afraid that she would fall to the ground.

Cher couldn't speak, couldn't move. But her own eyes could still see, she stared at Xiao Qi, her eyes full of anger.

Xiao Qi sat there as if he hadn't seen it, holding a box of things that looked like fat powder, playing with it. After a while, the big man next to Xiao Qi had a little blue face, as if he was arguing with Xiao Qi about something. But Xue'er couldn't hear clearly at all, and could only see the mouths of the two people moving.

Suddenly, Xiao Qi turned to himself, with some anger on his thin face, he took out a handful of things from his arms and sprinkled them on Xue'er.
