Chapter 8: The Trick of a Sword
"What the hell do you want!" Xiao Chengyue had no fear in his eyes, but at the moment, he was holding it in her hands, and he had no chance to resist.
"I want to ...... Kill you! After that, Lin Qi pushed with his backhand, and once again came directly to Xiao Chengyue's neck, Xiao Chengyue only felt a trace of coolness flash on his neck, and then a burst of dizziness suddenly came.
She looked at him almost suffocated, her cold eyes narrowed slightly, but for a moment, she lost her ruthless light and shadow, "Hmph...... The life of the prince is not worth a few cents now. ”
Lin Qi snorted lightly, turned around and shook his hand, threw down his clothes, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the wooden hairpin with a look of disgust. "I don't want this pair of healing hands to be stained with the blood of an ungrateful person like you, I'm dirty."
She glanced faintly at the black ash of grass and trees on the ground, which had been covered with a thin layer of white snow.
Insert the hairpin back into your hair, flick your sleeves and leave.
Before, she wanted to kill him more than once to take revenge, but she never got to do it, as if there was a providence in the dark.
Xiao Chengyue stood behind him, angry, and shook his body before he narrowly escaped from falling.
Who is she?
Luo Baisu was born in a scholarly family, and she has been a master of calligraphy, painting, and dancing since she was a child, although she obeys that person in everything, but she will never know how to heal, let alone kill such ruthless tricks.
He would never believe that there could be two people in this world who were so similar, or that a person's temperament would change suddenly overnight.
Xiao Chengyue looked at her back coldly, and left, his steps were a little heavy, but it was more uncomfortable for him than the pain in his heart.
It doesn't happen overnight to be misunderstood, once, he only cared about her opinion, but now, even she thinks so......
The frost was falling, and the paper money on the ground was gradually submerged in the snow......
After the battle of Qichuan, the enemy's momentum was greatly reduced, but two days, Tianyu reinforcements arrived, Xiao Chengyue took advantage of the situation to lead the army, and with one hit, he captured two cities in a row.
Above the plain desert, Shangguan Yue jumped down from the small mound, withdrew the long sword from his waist with one hand, and bowed back to the comer.
"Lord Wang, according to the current situation, as long as Xiping City is captured in one fell swoop, the enemy will be completely driven out of the Tianyu junction line, these months of battles, they are afraid that they have no power to fight back, it is expected that half a month, there will be a messenger to come to surrender."
Xiao Chengyue nodded, but there was no smile on his face, rubbing his index finger and thumb back and forth, "Pass the order, fight quickly, and in three days, collect the troops and return to Beijing." ”
"Yes!"
"Report, Lord Qi, the patrol found a suspicious person ten miles ahead, who has been wandering in front of the camp for half a day, and his whereabouts are strange."
"Grab it."
"Yes."
The soldier received the order, but after a while, he saw a gray-faced man being carried in by two soldiers.
The man was unkempt, his hands were tightly protecting his abdomen, and his legs and waist were covered with bloody scars, and when he saw Xiao Chengyue, he immediately climbed from the ground to Xiao Chengyue's feet excitedly.
"Lord, lord, help, save me......" The man's voice was hoarse, thinking that he would come to the desert, there was nowhere to find a water source, and there were injuries on his body, and at this moment, he looked like he was dying.
"What a bold man, he dares to be disrespectful to the prince, so don't report his name quickly!" Seeing this, Shangguan Yue kicked him away, and stepped forward in two steps to block Xiao Chengyue's body, preventing him from getting closer.
"The villain, the villain Qin Yuetian, is a strategist under General Hu." The man stopped, and as soon as he opened his mouth to answer, a short-tailed pit viper burst out from under him.
Xiao Chengyue pushed Shangguan Yu away violently, and stabbed down with a sword, "What about Hu Dayi?" ”
The sword pierced into the abdomen, and the snake stopped moving for a moment.
The man's pupils suddenly tightened, and he opened his mouth, "General Hu...... Falling into the enemy camp, he has ......" Before he finished speaking, he tilted his head and lost his breath.
Lin Qi heard that someone was injured, so he came in a hurry, and as soon as he entered the camp tent, he saw Xiao Chengyue holding a long sword, facing a person in the abdomen, and that person became a scene of a dead soul under the sword......
Lin ...... Miss Lin ......" Kong Lingfeng looked at the figure at the door and called out awkwardly.
Hearing this, Xiao Chengyue raised his head and saw her staring at the corpse on the ground, her face full of indifference.
Lin Qi didn't say a word, turned around and walked out of the tent, behind him, Kong Lingfeng wanted to chase after him to explain, but was stopped by Xiao Chengyue.
"Let her go, leave her alone." His eyebrows jumped, but after only a moment, he recovered as before, and turned to look at Shangguan Yu, "Can General Shangguan know this person?" ”
He held a sword in one hand and picked at the corpses on the ground in the other.
The man had multiple fatal wounds on his body, in addition to a poisonous snake being poured into his abdomen, obvious whip marks on the sides of his legs and shoulders, and marks of chains and shackles on his wrists and ankles.
"I know, this person is indeed a strategist under General Hu, but a few months ago, I heard that this person disappeared in the military camp for no reason, and I don't know why he is here today." Shangguan touched his chin more and more, analyzing bit by bit.
"Could it be that it has something to do with General Hu's whereabouts?" He raised his head and looked at Xiao Chengyue, he had always been convinced of this young prince.
"No, I'm afraid there's fraud in this." Xiao Chengyue shook his head, threw the long sword to the ground, and turned to look back at him.
His phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, "From the injuries on his body, it can be seen that this person was not only imprisoned before, but also tortured to extract a confession." Shangguan Yu nodded, and hurriedly followed his steps towards the outside of the tent.
"Since they are willing to let him back, they are bound to bring out the news that Hu Dayi is not dead, and this person has followed Hu Dayi, even if he doesn't say it, it will be reminiscent of this."
"The snake in the belly? Aren't they afraid that he will die on the way? ”
"The snake in the abdomen is just a dose of chronic poison, if the inference is correct, the snake has been fed with psychedelics in advance, if it is not a strong blow, the snake will not wake up, and Qin Yuetian can temporarily save his life."
Hearing this, Shangguan was startled for a moment, looked back at the corpse that was still lying on the ground, and felt a chill on the soles of his feet.
"If you don't know in advance, you and I must be eager to save our colleagues, and we rushed to attack the army, just falling into the trap." Xiao Chengyue looked at him, guessed a few points, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Pass the order, suspend the army for two days, and then fight hard." ”
Since they are waiting for him to enter the circle, then he will first send them an empty joy, and then give them a heavy blow.
Two days later.
As Xiao Chengyue expected, the enemy army prepared for battle overnight that day, but it was empty, and the whole army was ready to fight, but it was slow to see the Tianyu army attack.
After two days and two nights of sleeplessness, by the third day the enemy was already discouraged, and it only took a little advance before it was broken.
The Tianyu army won a complete victory, not only recovering the lost territory, but also taking the enemy's Xiping City, as a town army camp, the enemy country suffered defeats, and had to repair the war book to protect the country's peace.
"Pass the order, rest for the night, and return to Beijing tomorrow morning."
"Yes."
Xiao Chengyue stood on top of the Xiping City Tower, looking at the rising war under the city tower, as if he had seen the end of victory at a glance.
The three-year period has arrived, and it is time for those who have been enjoying themselves in Lin'an City for three years to settle accounts with them......
