Chapter 37: The Way Home
"Today, Greece has become a country, has been completely free and independent, here, you are an emperor, you are the king of a country, your deeds, your words, is to represent a country, Yu is grateful for your heart, but because of this, Yu can not let you follow, first, if you want to be a good emperor, then you must care about your people, your actions and words, the first consideration is the wishes of the people, the thoughts of the people, not the impulse of individuals, this is the body of the king is involuntarily, your words and deeds represent the whole of Greece, And not you. Second, you are the king of Greece, and Yu is also the emperor of Rome, how can Yu take advantage of the power of others to destroy his own people? Yu can't afford to lose this face, and he can't get this hand, Yu's people are disobedient, and Yu will discipline himself. Nero walked up to the Greek king, and the words were like inheritance, all of them were heartfelt, Nero needed soldiers now? Yes, need support? need, however, even at this time, she is still insisting on the concept she believes in, always pointing to it, and she does not regret deciding in her heart, this remark seems to be easy, but in fact, what kind of kingly power is needed, what determination and perseverance can be done, if it is replaced by Lin Xiu, it is possible to kidnap this Greek king now, and it is almost the same as directly forcing him to send troops.
"But... My king has no soldiers to use! The more the Greek king moved, the more worried he became, and he deeply understood Nero's words, and the person in front of him may not be able to surpass him in his life.
"Who said that Yu Wubing? Can you do it? Are you willing to crusade against rebellion with the rest? Nero turned to look at Lin Xiu, with an inquiring and firm tone in his eyes, maybe it was this moment. The only person she could trust most was this man from the East. It's a pity. She hasn't gotten what she wants yet, and I don't know if she still has this chance.
"The minister is the king's knight, the king is worried about the humiliation of the minister, the king humiliates the minister to death, this is the way to be loyal to the king, but whatever my king's sword points to, blood will be splashed for thousands of miles to wash away the wisdom of my king." Lin Xiu knew what Nero needed most now, and the momentum in his words was no weaker than that of the previous Greek king. Sonorous and powerful, although there is only one man, in the eyes of the Greek king, it has outnumbered thousands of troops.
Under the gaze of the king of Greece, Nero left with Lin Xiu, and when the two walked out of here, they had to stop, and the lineup of no less than a thousand people blocked in front of them, and the moment they saw Nero appear. Everyone got down on one knee with a bowl of wine in their hands.
"Drink this cup to the fullest of my king. Wuyun is prosperous! The shouts of more than a thousand people, this is the voice from the heart, vibrating Lin Xiu's eardrums, half a position behind Nero, Lin Xiu looked at this thin figure from behind, the height is less than 160, under this gorgeous clothes, is a delicate woman, and at this moment, in the face of this scene in front of you, such a scene is so exciting, how desirable, even if the horse leather shroud died on the battlefield, I will die without regrets, however, how many men's dreams have been obtained by this weaker woman in front of me at this moment.
"Bring the wine!" Nero also felt in his heart, at this moment, he no longer suppressed the madness in his heart, and shouted, an attendant had already brought wine, Nero reached into his arms, and did not look for the container, his face was still a habitual smile, a resolute look.
"Gentlemen, I have been in Greece for a year, and I am forced to leave today, Greece is very gracious, and it is fierce, if he meets in the future, he will drink a thousand cups, and you will do it!" The resounding words fell, and Nero tilted his head and poured the liquor into his mouth.
"My king, please!" As the words fell, more than a thousand people drank this cup, this face carried a kind of tragedy, and it also made people's blood boil, Lin Xiu even felt that his blood began to boil, and at this moment he wanted to drink and fight on the battlefield.
"Qing!" Nero finished drinking and handed the wine to Lin Xiu with one hand, although Lin Xiu didn't drink well, he couldn't take care of that much at the moment, so he was crazy.
In the end, with Nero and Lin Xiu left together, there were only more than 20 horses, from the moment they chose to embark on this way back, they were already doomed to a tragic ending, but still have no regrets, this is the charm of the king, Nero took a look at the civilians on the Greek city wall and sent each other off, after all, he pulled the reins, beat the horse and galloped, the red robe was untied by her, and floated away in the air, the original fire of the original body appeared, and at this moment the white horse had become a stunning beauty, with more than 20 people behind him, and rushed forward.
Nero and Lin Xiu's return journey had just started for half a day, and there were already ambushes appearing, and at this moment, seeing a lineup of more than 20 horsemen, in the eyes of more than a thousand people, it was just a little bit of stars, and Nero's hand was the primordial fire in the lead, like a red arrow directly rushing into the opponent's camp.
"Kill!" The shouts of twenty people were instantly annihilated under the shouts of more than a thousand people, and when the two sides bordered each other, more than twenty horsemen were instantly submerged in it, and looking down from above, a red figure in the lead, rushing left and right, no enemy, the officer in front of him saw that the soldiers around him were killed and wounded, his eyes were red, and what caused all this was a beautiful woman.
"I'm waiting here to fight Nero, who are you waiting for?" Because there was a woman in front of her, dressed in a special way, with strange weapons in her hands, and outstanding force, but among the more than 20 people, no Nero was found, which also made the officer ask angrily at the same time.
"Yu is the Babylonian witch in your mouth, the tyrant of Rome, if you want to die under the king's sword, just come here." Nero inserted the primordial fire into the heart of an officer, and when he withdrew, he had already answered the other party's question, although he was surprised why Nero was a woman, but this tone was already clear.
"Kill, kill Nero, and a thousand gold." The officer saw that Nero's martial arts were superb, and he changed his strategy at the moment, rewarding and grabbing, and there must be brave men under the heavy reward, listening to the temptation of more than a thousand gold, many soldiers rushed to kill, Lin Xiu's movements were not slow, and when he was wrong, he had already appeared in front of Nero, the horse was neighing, the person was erect, and the king's sword in his hand was unsheathed, and before the soldiers who rushed up failed to attack, he had already pulled out a phantom with a touch of silver light and drew a semicircle, and instantly blood splashed, and the head of the person flew over.
"The Fastest Sword in the Empire!" How could that officer still not recognize Lin Xiu at this moment. However. Quick as a wink. The other party was not damaged, more than half of his own dead and wounded, and the remaining twenty knights had never made a knife, all of which were so-called by the two people in front of them, which was really terrible, and they wanted to flee when they turned around and hit the horse, but there was a red figure in between. In the air, like a butterfly, it sped up and fell, stepping on his horse, and the primordial fire was on the officer's neck.
"My king, please spare your life!" By this moment, the officer had long lost his previous sharpness and begged for mercy, but Nero snorted coldly, his face contemptuous.
"Yu is no longer the king of yours, Yu Gang has already said that Yu is the Babylonian witch in your eyes. Now that you have decided to fight against me, be prepared to meet the king's wrath. The words fell. The primordial fire trembled, and the human head had already flown out of the sky, Nero kicked his body off his horse, turned to look around, and many soldiers instantly lowered their weapons, did not resist, and knelt on the ground to beg for mercy.
"Go back and tell Garba that Nero is back, let him and the elders wash their necks and wait, and let them see what bloody it is!" The words fell, the primordial fire in his hand came from the bottom up, the red light flashed, shooting straight into the sky, the dark clouds dispersed, a ray of sunlight sprinkled down, and the majesty of the king was fully revealed, this is Nero, the king of the world, invincible.
From day to night, the road from Greece to Rome has been full of floating corpses, the cause of all this is just a lineup of more than 20 people, telling the cruelty of the picture, but also proving the tragedy of this journey, the more than 20 knights still left a lot of corpses, most of their corpses are incomplete, occasionally one of the limbs is able-bodied, actually standing and dying, with more than ten spears inserted in his body, and a spear is inserted into his waist behind his back, which is against the ground, which is also the reason why his body did not fall, And what is really surprising is that the spear is his own, and if you look closely, it is he who inserted himself into his waist in order to keep his body from falling, which shows how fierce it is, until death, his eyes are still looking at the west, as if he is expecting his monarch to arrive safely.
On the path at night, Nero and Lin Xiu's bodies were covered with blood and stains, and in less than two days along the way, they had experienced thirty or forty battles, large and small, although the two of them were not seriously injured, but they did not have a moment of rest, so that they were also sleepy to the limit.
"My king, take a break." Lin Xiu patted the horse and rushed to Nero's side, watching this slender body fight desperately along the way, the red skirt was like a rose blooming in the battlefield, bewitching but also full of pity, Lin Xiu opened his mouth to persuade, for him who already knew the end of the Dao, there was basically no big difference between continuing to move forward and staying here and waiting for death.
"Well, let's take a break." Nero looked back at the knights who were still following behind him, leaving her and Lin Xiu with a total of only three people, although they were sitting on horseback at this time, they could fall to the ground at any time, obviously their mental and physical strength had reached their limits.
Lin Xiu went to tie the horse, Nero sat on the grass in place, sprinkled on his body by the moonlight, clasped his hands on his knees, and looked into the distance blankly, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking, Lin Xiu took some water and walked quietly to her side, and before he sat down, Nero had already spoken.
"Qing thinks... Will Yu be able to reclaim the throne? Nero didn't need to look back to feel Lin Xiu coming behind him, but in his words, there was less strength and persistence in the past, and more sorrow and suspicion, like an injured eagle that broke a wing.
"The minister never thinks about this, the minister only needs to follow the king's steps." Lin Xiu smiled and said in a firm tone, he didn't know how to comfort people, just like when Poison Island Tsuneko cried in front of him, he couldn't find words to comfort others, maybe this is the reason why he has never had emotions.
Yu felt a little tired. Nero tightened his body, looking a little cold, his voice fluctuated for the first time, some feelings of self-pity and self-pity, like a little girl who was turned away, this emperor, when he died his brother who cared about the most, sighed that he didn't even have the right to cry, and then turned his hand over for the clouds and his hands for the rain and continued to pursue his ideals strongly, this emperor looked at her indifferently when his mother died, and cried bitterly in Lin Xiu's arms. But Lin Xiuzhi said. She's still going strong. When the fire broke out in Rome, she was furious, bloody slaughter, and also in the streets and alleys at night, with Lin Xiu did her best to save innocent lives, at that time, she also had grief, but when all this happened. There was never hesitation in her eyes, she still insisted on her own opinions, her own dreams, her own cognition to do, to think, to break, never had half a doubt, even when she was preparing to return to Rome, she was arrogant, without the slightest retreat and fear. But now it's different, Lin Xiu feels it. She really felt a little tired.
"Your Majesty, there is an enemy attack." The remaining three guards did not choose to flee at this moment, although their bodies were covered with scars, but they were still vigilant and did not dare to rest, if there was any disturbance, they would be the first to find out, Lin Xiu turned around with his sword and was ready to defend, but Nero's hand suddenly grabbed his arm, and at the same time that Lin Xiu was surprised, Nero also got up and stood up, turned around, and his eyes were no longer the strong and heroic spirit of the past, but a little jerky and gentle.
"The road ahead has been blocked, this side will definitely not work, let's go check the southwest direction, it shouldn't be the focus of their defense, if it's safe to probe, we will change the direction of travel." Nero's words changed, changed his plan to continue to move forward, avoided his edge and planned to detour to the past, Lin Xiu nodded, took the king's sword and got up to leave, and did not notice that he had been staring at his back Nero, his eyes were always staring at his back for a long time and refused to move away, until his figure disappeared, Nero turned around, the gentle gaze had disappeared, but a kind of perseverance.
"Qing still doesn't know, Yu is hopelessly in love with you, you have been with Yu for a long time on this road, after reaching the most lucrative, Yu doesn't want you to sink with this Babylonian witch, Yu has to face it himself, Qing... You should live well, as long as you keep going in that direction, you will soon be able to reach the dock, and at that time, as long as you board the far-away ship, you may be able to return to the eastern country, even if you can't go back, you should... It will be safe, and Yu will bless you. Nero whispered to himself, which was the last confession, and then looked at the only three remaining knights in front of him, from beginning to end, they did not object, nor admonished, until death, they will always abide by the duties and honor of knights.
"Your Majesty, the former method of Iger has already deployed a six-way army, with a total of 50,000 people, and the strength is only the weakest in the southeast direction, so at present, you can only choose this direction to break through." Standing in the middle of the three should be the commander of this knight order, although the blood on his face has not dried at the moment, but he is still meticulously reporting his work, although the number out of his mouth is very amazing, but the eyes and bodies of the three people, there is no trace of hesitation or trembling, it is enough to show that they have already put life and death aside.
"There's no need to break through, you wait... Run for your life, as long as you're not by Yu's side, you change into your usual clothes, you won't be recognized, you've done your best along the way, and the rest... Just let Yu face it himself. As soon as Nero's words came out, the three people in front of him were stunned, and they all knelt on the ground with three "Teng Teng Teng" sounds.
"We have already sworn to follow in the footsteps of our king." The three of them spoke in unison, and their words were extremely firm, although they knew what the end of the Dao was, but some people would always regard something more important than life, and if there were no such people, there would not be so many legends.
"This is Yu Shilu's order, do you want to disobey?" Nero's face turned cold in vain, and his tone became stern, although he was a little embarrassed, but the majesty of the king would exist at any time, and the three of them did not resist in the end, and slowly left with reluctant eyes one step at a time, and finally slammed the horse's back and galloped wildly.
On the empty grassland, soon the roar of horses' hooves galloping, Nero looked up at the starry sky above him, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, he didn't care about it, the primordial fire in his hand was inserted in the soil in front of him, and the red robe on her body reflected each other, and from a distance, it was as quiet as the sun under the night sky.
The sound of hooves has gradually weakened, not that the enemy who came to pursue has ignored it, but the commander in front has made a gesture, ordering the team behind to slow down, the knight in front is only thirty years old, wearing knight armor, with a handsome face on his cold face, it is Grinus, at this moment, the dark blue eyes are burning staring at the woman in the red robe on the grassland, the woman also slowly turned her head, her hair is slightly messy, and the red skirt is also cracked corners, But still from the translucent white veil in front of it to see its jade-like legs, as well as the looming mysterious area, even in the face of thousands of troops, Nero still with her unique charm, standing there like a queen, unfortunately, the Roman Empire can not accept a woman to become a king, but everything is not impossible, the victory of the front line Nero still does not know the way, if he knows the way, plus his current Praetorian Guard, as long as Nero agrees to his conditions, with the group of waste of the senate, can't withstand their beating at all, so for this crisis, it is also what Glinus wants to see the most, only when Nero is at his weakest, he can stand by her side again, and win the hearts of beauties.
