Chapter 245: Buried in Jiang Xin
The voice of the person who spoke was clear, straight as ice and jade, and under the wavering firelight, he saw a person slowly walking out of the darkness at the bow of the ship, this person was dressed in black, and his figure was straight, and when that face appeared in the firelight, Meng Gongzhi was shocked.
"Childe Cheng?!"
Squinting his eyes and carefully looking at the person who came again, Meng Gong said in a deep voice. "You're not Gongzicheng. Boy, who are you, why did you kill me?"
"Heh, Meng Gong, you kidnapped my Engong, why can't I take the lives of a few of your swordsmen?"
The man slowly approached, and Ye Ziyi looked up and was also stunned.
The person who came to the person and Gongzi Chengzhi are five or six points similar, the same handsomeness, the same coldness, but this person's coldness is different from Gongzicheng's coldness, light and desireless, but with a little melancholy, people can't help but feel distressed.
Meng Gong stared at the young man who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, shook the long sword in his hand, and said coldly. "Who the hell are you! If you don't, I'll kill this witch!"
"Hmph, dare to ask my name and surname, traitorous villain, you still don't admire it!" As soon as the young man's voice fell, a miserable scream immediately sounded on the boat, and Meng Gong looked back to see that the swordsman behind him had been killed.
There was no expression on the young man's face, he stared at Meng Gong coldly, and the hand holding the big sword slowly raised and pointed straight at him.
"You ......" Meng Gong didn't dare to say anything again, the long sword in his hand trembled, swallowed his saliva, looked at the remaining less than ten swordsmen, and gritted his teeth. "Strong man, why don't you let the old man live? I'll let Jing Ji go too, how about it?"
"Let you go, Meng Gong, you know too much, with you one day, Engong will not be at peace, you want me to let you go, how can I let you go?" The young man sneered, his body was vertical, and the sword in his hand stabbed towards Meng Gong.
"Ahh
Seeing this, Ye Ziyi was stunned for a while, hurriedly got up, rolled to the side, she climbed to the railing of the boat and leaned against the cold plank, her heart jumped to her throat.
Meng Gong fell to the ground with a bang, and the remaining swordsmen didn't dare to move, so they just stood there and looked at the young man.
The fire in the cabin was getting stronger and stronger, and in a blink of an eye, the tongue of fire could already be seen at the small door, Ye Ziyi looked at the tongue of fire, and turned his eyes to the young man.
When the young man saw Ye Ziyi looking at him, he strode to her side, and said softly with his hand. "It's too late for the scarlet to come, and the tired engong suffers, but he still hopes to be innocent. ”
"Scarlet?" Ye Ziyi blinked, looked up at him, and thought for a while before remembering this person.
This Scarlet is the boy she saved two years ago? How could it be? How could he have such kung fu? How could he be here?
"Yes, the grace of Engong to save his life back then was unrequited, and today Scarlet can be regarded as a useful body, and he is willing to serve Engong. As he spoke, he stepped forward and picked up the leaf instrument, and he glanced at the burning cabin. "This fire can't be saved, please leave with me. ”
"Leave, where to go?" Ye Ziyi was a little confused, she couldn't avoid these things anywhere, Meng Gong died, how many people still knew her secrets?
"Gongzixuan is Jiankang, Chen Jiang, Guan Li and Ling Feng are waiting elsewhere now, Engong, Gongzixuan can help us escape from the beam. ”
After saying that, he pointed to the tall and thin swordsman who walked out of the darkness next to him. "This one is the famous swordsman Xiang Liu sent by Gongzi Xuan to help, the ship is ready, and Engong will leave with me. ”
Ye Ziyi looked at the rising smoke and flames, and suddenly shook her head, she lowered her head and swept the corpse on the ground, and said in a dumb voice. "No, I'm not leaving. ”
"What?"
"Scarlet, you take Mr. Qu away, I don't want to escape. Ye Ziyi smiled bitterly and patted Scarlet's arm. "Thank you for coming to save me, you guys go, I'm not leaving. ”
"Engong, you ......" Fei was in a hurry, and as soon as he spoke, he saw a fire suddenly lit up on the river at the bow of the ship, and then, there were fires on both sides of the big ship.
"There is an iron lock in front of the river to block the river, if it hits the iron lock, I'm afraid the ship will sink!"
As he spoke, the swordsman named Xiangliu sank into the darkness at the mast, and then, with a few muffled noises in the darkness, three large sails fell down at once, covering the cabin, and in the blink of an eye, a burst of fire rose.
"Listen, the people on the ship, hurry up and hand over the princess's concubine!"
"Hurry up and hand over the childe's concubine!"
The big ship slowed down the castration, but those sharp knife boats clenched and kept shouting, Ye Ziyi glanced at the boat that almost illuminated the river, gritted his teeth, and strode towards the bow of the boat.
"Eun Gong!"
"Don't come with me!" Ye Ziyi stopped the scarlet who wanted to follow, and stood on the bow of the boat with the burning firelight.
Looking at the approaching sharp knife boat, Ye Ziyi exerted all his strength and shouted loudly. "Jing Ji is here! Wait until you go back and tell the King of Daliang and your Queen Mother, after today, there will be no Jing Ji in this world! Let her die of this heart!"
The river breeze stirred Ye Ziyi's long hair, stirring her clothes, and her slender figure was even thinner against the firelight, but she was so resolute and fearless.
Hearing this, Qu Heng seemed to wake up suddenly, he put down the body of Gongzi Bo in his arms, and stared straight at the scarlet road standing opposite.
"The people on this boat have all seen Ah Ye's face, and none of them can be left, first clear the Meng Gongyu party on the ship and then save Ah Ye. ”
Scarlet nodded, exchanged glances with the swordsman named Xiangliu, and in the blink of an eye, the swordsman on the board of the ship was killed.
Qu Heng didn't look at the tragic situation, he moved towards Ye Ziyi step by step, and slowly walked to the cabin at the bow of the ship.
"Aye. ”
Qu Heng's voice was full of tenderness, he looked at the cyan figure standing at the bow of the boat, and the love in his eyes was undisguised and overflowing.
"Mr. Qu. Ye Ziyi turned her head sideways, glanced at Qu Heng, and smiled faintly. "What I owe to my husband, let's pay it back in the next life, Ah Ye can't let people die for me anymore for a nonsensical secret. ”
Qu Heng looked affectionately at Ye Ziyi's warm little face in the firelight, he raised his lips slightly, and said very gently. "Aye. ”
"Do you have anything else to say, sir?"
"Play a song "Water Dragon Yin" for me, since I heard it on the sandbar that time, I always think of it, your piano, I still want to listen to it. As he spoke, Qu Heng took off a guqin fixed on the bulkhead of the bow and handed it to Ye Ziyi at the bow.
The sword boat slowly approached the big ship, and the fire on the ship became more and more intense, and just as the knife fleet on the left was about to approach the big ship, the mainmast of the big ship suddenly toppled over, and it fell to the surface of the water on the left.
"Bang! bang......"
A huge wave rose into the air, and the small boat was smashed to pieces, and in the blink of an eye it was submerged in the river.
When the water was calm, the big boat slowly slowed down, and the people in the small boat below looked towards the boat, and saw Ye Ziyi slowly walking to the side of the boat with a torch in his hand, and set fire to the wooden fence of the big boat.
The fire boiled at once, and then the cyan figure in the firelight slowly walked to the other end, and also set fire to the other side of the ship, and with the two fires, the big ship fell into the fire at once.
Watching the raging fire burning, the people under the boat watched Ye Ziyi calmly sit on the bow of the boat with a guqin in his arms and play it slowly.
The ethereal music, ethereal and detached, atmospheric and delicate, if it weren't for the fierce fire behind the person who played the piano, it would be a wonderful sound, and it would have been intoxicating.
Looking at this raging fire, the faces of the people on the sharp knife boat had already changed, and they looked at Ye Ziyi who was sitting on the bow of the boat with great hatred, but there was no way, they just gathered around the big boat, neither daring to step forward nor wanting to leave.
In the distance, the big ship is like a torch in the heart of the river, bright, but scorching, You Zhan stared blankly at the firelight, listening to the sound of the piano floating in the river wind, and the tears in his eyes poured down.
Standing on the bow of the clipper, You Zhan grabbed the robe on his body tightly and said astringently. "Where's the one who played the harp?"
"In the bow of the ship. The people who went to investigate said that the ship was burning and sinking, but the people on the boat were still playing and had not left. ”
The black-clothed man behind You Zhan bowed his head and replied in the affirmative.
"This piano sound, it's Ah Ye's, what is she going to do? How can she die? She still has five years to live, she doesn't deserve to die, that is, King Liang and the queen mother are forced to fight, she shouldn't choose this method, how easy it is to die, hasn't she been fighting for so long? Why don't you fight? Why do you want to accept fate? No, I don't allow it, I have to save her, I have to save her!"
"Pavilion Master, I can't save it, the boat ...... It's going to sink. ”
"Shen? How could it be sunk? Ah Ye is waiting for me to save her! How could it be sunk! If you talk nonsense, I will not spare you!"
As soon as You Zhan's words fell, he heard a loud 'rattling horn' in the distance, and he looked back in panic, and saw that the bow of the big ship burning on the river was slowly cocked, and then, in the light of the flames, the bow of the ship that rose to mid-air suddenly broke and slowly sank into the dark river water.
"No...... No!Ah Ye!" You Zhan roared and rushed forward, and the man in black behind him was startled, and hurriedly leaned over and grabbed You Zhan, who was almost stepping into the water.
"Master!"
"Ah Ye!"
There were two calls from behind You Zhan's small boat at the same time, and he struggled to jump into the water, until Ah Zhi pressed the bow of the boat, and he looked closely at the big boat that sank into the river, his eyes red.
The dark sky was still starless and moonless, and suddenly a thunderbolt flashed, and the scattered raindrops fell, slowly extinguishing the embers of the driftwood on the river, and the sky and the earth returned to a dark place.
The lights of the knife boats were lit again, and they slowly sailed away from the river, and everything was calm again, as if nothing had happened.
On the misty river, it seems that you can still hear the curling sound of the piano, accompanied by the sound of wind and rain, echoing on the silent river surface in the dark night, gradually drifting away.
The five small boats slowly approached the water where the big ship sank, You Zhan and the others anxiously and persistently shouted Ye Ziyi's name, over and over again, as if they were tired, those voices became more and more hoarse, but no one responded.
The heavy rain poured down, slowly drowning out the scorching sound, and the rapid raindrops hit a guqin floating on the river, and the strings sounded, and it was desolate.
