The bandit leader's words were so light-hearted, Chen Nian didn't get angry, and only said: "Since this is the case, then I'm sorry." β
With a flick of her wrist, she grabbed the two silver ingots in her hand and used them as hidden weapons to hit the bandit leader. Everyone could only see a flash of silver light in front of them, and before they could see anything clearly, they heard the bandit leader scream and fell into the lake on his back. Since that person is the leader of the bandits, he is naturally the highest kung fu among these people, but he didn't want to be smashed into the lake by two ingots of silver in Chen Nian, and there was no movement. Seeing this, the bandits couldn't help but be shocked, and they all retreated, guarding Chen Nian in fear, and no one dared to step forward again.
Chen Nian waited for a while, but he didn't see any movement from them, so he couldn't help but gesture to the surface of the lake, and asked aloud, "Didn't anyone go into the water to catch him?" In a few moments, it will be time to drown. β
Everyone was stunned for a moment, looked back at the lake, and saw that the body of the bandit leader surfaced again, but it was motionless, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. At that moment, a few people jumped down to save their boss, but the other few people slowly came up to Chennian with swords in their hands.
Chen Nian stretched out his hand into his arms again, and the bandits were startled, and they hurriedly took a few steps back. Chen Nian looked at the ingot of silver in his hand, but he was a little reluctant, so he turned around and bent down, and asked the boatman hiding in the cabin: "Uncle, is it okay to exchange this silver for some of your eldest sons?" β
The boatman was already stupid, where did he dare to say anything, so he hurriedly touched a handful of copper coins and handed them to Chen Nian. Chen Nian gave him the ingot of silver, grabbed the copper coin and turned around, and looked at the bandits calmly.
At this time, the man who went into the water to fish for people also rescued the bandit leader on his own boat, and after a little inspection, he saw that the two arms of the bandit leader were actually discounted by Chen Nian, and the person was also pale and gray, his eyes were closed, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. It's just that two small silver ingots can hurt people like this, and those people were suddenly stupid, and one of them trembled and shouted to the bandits on the Chennian ship: "This girl is a powerful character, brothers come back quickly." β
When the bandits heard this, they saw that Chen Nian was still throwing the handful of copper coins in his hand, and they didn't care about robbing money and lust, so they were busy fleeing to their own boats. Although they left, Chen Nian did not let them go easily, and used copper coins to beat those water bandits into the water. Although they didn't bend their arms like the bandit leader, they were all hit by the acupuncture points, and they wailed loudly in pain.
For a while, ghosts and wolves were howling everywhere on the water, and it was very lively. Chen Nian stood on the bow of the boat and watched for a moment, and then suddenly shouted coldly: "Next time, stay away from my ship, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless." β
Those water bandits only cared about fleeing for their lives, and they didn't even dare to say a hard word, so they left in embarrassment. It wasn't until their ship was far away that the couple and their two sons on the ship dared to climb out of the cabin, and saw Chennian standing alone in the bow of the boat, although the figure was thin, but it was straight, like a needle of the sea, firmly nailed to the bow of the ship, and the stormy waves could not shake her.
The bow of the boat stuffed the silver ingots that Chen Nian gave him into the old wife's hand, and motioned for her to return it to Chen Nian, while he took his two sons to sail the boat. The old woman was both respectful and afraid of Chen Nian, and walked forward cautiously, but before she could say anything, Chen Nian had already turned around to look at her and asked, "Auntie, what's the matter?" β
The old woman timidly handed out the silver and said, "Girl, take back this silver, those big sons, how can they be worth so much!" β
Chen Nian waved his hand and said, "No, take it, the right to give you a shock." β
When she said this, the old woman was a little embarrassed, and she thought that the bandits had just attacked, and their whole family was hiding in the cabin, so she opened her mouth and said, "Girl, don't complain that we are cowardly, we really don't dare to provoke these ......."
Chen Nian didn't ask her to finish her words, but said: "Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, human nature, if I didn't have this martial arts, I wouldn't have acted like that just now." Don't think about it, auntie. β
The old woman was relieved at this time, and because she got a silver ingot for nothing, she was even more happy, and since then she has taken care of Chennian more carefully, but this is gossip, no need to elaborate.
The boat traveled for several days, and then it turned into the Wanjiang River from Jingshui, and the bow of the boat turned to the east, and went straight down to Yiping. Staying at Yiping Wharf, Chen Nian first got off the boat and hired a big car, pulled Ye Xiaoqi's coffin, and went north around Yiping City and went to the south. She didn't know where Ye Xiaoqi buried Xiaoliu that day, she only guessed that it should be on the way from Qingfeng Village to Yiping, and the road in the mountain was rugged and difficult, so she couldn't carry the coffin to pass, so she simply stored the coffin in a temple and went into the mountain alone to find Xiaoliu's grave.
I didn't want this search to be more than three months, Chen Nian climbed countless mountains, and finally found the small grave pile that Ye Xiaoqi had piled up for Xiaoliu that day on a hillside more than 200 miles away from Qingfeng Village. The tombstone in front of the grave is made of split wood, after several years of wind and rain, it is about to rot, Ye Xiaoqi engraved on the crooked and scattered handwriting is blurred, if it is a year and a half later, this grave is afraid that it will never be found again.
This place is more than 200 miles away from Qingfeng Village, and Chen Nian doesn't know how many days Ye Xiaoqi walked here with Xiaoliu on his back, and what kind of mood he had to bury her here, piling up such a small grave. She didn't dare to think about it, because as long as she thought about it, she already felt a heart-rending pain. Since carrying Ye Xiaoqi's body out of Shengdu, she has never cried, and after a few months of searching alone in the mountains, her mood rarely fluctuates, but at this moment, she fell down in front of Xiaoliu's grave, crying bitterly.
When I was young, I didn't care about people and things, and I thought I could afford to put it down, but I missed it, and it was just passing by and forgetting about each other. When you can really understand that this passing by is lost forever, and if you can't come back, it's too late to regret it.
Chen Nian cried for most of the day, then stopped, got up and piled Xiaoliu's grave higher, and cut the tombstone out with a mountain stone, carved the words in front of the grave, and then turned around and went down the mountain. When she arrived at the mountain temple where Ye Xiaoqi's coffin was stored, it was two days later, as soon as Chen Nian entered the temple gate, she felt that something was wrong, but she was now strong in martial arts and fearless, and she only paused at her feet, and then she still went straight into the side hall where the coffin stopped.
It was Lu Rongfeng who didn't want to wait in the hall.
Chen Nian knew that Lu Rongfeng was now in the Yiping army, but when he suddenly appeared here, he still felt a little uneasy, and asked, "What is Uncle Lu doing here?" β
Lu Rongfeng hurriedly stood up, looked at Chen Nian in a daze, and then said tentatively: "Big boss? β
Chen Nian has been running around in the mountains for a long time, naturally dressed in men's clothes, and because of the heat of midsummer, he only wears a gray-brown coarse cloth short beat. When Lu Rongfeng was surprised by what she was wearing, she didn't care, she only took off the hat on her head, and said: "It's not a big boss for a long time, Uncle Lu still calls me Chennian." β
Lu Rongfeng's gaze changed from her face to her body, and then moved back from her body back to her face, and so on several times, his eyes could not hide the consternation.
Chen Nian didn't care, smiled faintly, and explained: "But running in the mountains is a little tanned, Uncle Lu doesn't need to be so surprised." β
Lu Rongfeng nodded stunnedly, but his eyes still drifted to Chen Nian's waist unconsciously. Chen Nian knew that he had been running around in the mountains in the past few months, not only his face was darker, but his body was much thicker than before, and he was no longer as slender as before. She didn't care about Lu Rongfeng's look, seeing that the incense in front of Ye Xiaoqiling was about to burn out, she went out to clean her hands, and came back to renew the pillar of incense in front of Ye Xiaoqiling, then turned around and asked Lu Rongfeng: "Why is Uncle Lu here?" Are you looking for me? β
Lu Rongfeng hurriedly retracted his gaze and replied, "Oh, no, just passing by here." β
This time he wasn't lying. Last year, Lu Xiao and the sparrow went to Yiping to look for the New Year, and Lu Rongfeng was instructed by Shunping to follow the sparrow to leave as eyeliner. I didn't want him and Lingque to wait in the north forest of Yiping City for most of the night, but they only waited for Lu Xiao to be one, and only after asking did they know that Chen Nian refused to leave with Lu Xiao. Seeing this situation, Lu Rongfeng had no need to follow them north, so he found an excuse to return to Yiping and became a partial general under Song Yan.
This time, he really didn't know that Chen Nian would be here, he was ordered by Song Yan to go to Qingzhou, and he stayed here on the way, and accidentally saw Ye Xiaoqi's tablet, so he was surprised, and sent his men to ask who stored this coffin here, and he didn't want his subordinates to come back from listening, but it was Chen Nian who entered the door.
Chen Nian heard him say that Song Yan ordered him to go to Qingzhou, and he didn't ask him what he was doing, but said: "Since this is the case, Uncle Lu should go to Qingzhou quickly, and the military order should not be delayed." β
She obviously didn't want to talk about herself, Lu Rongfeng saw it, and she didn't want to ask too much, thought about it, and only asked her: "Are you going to send Ye Xiaoqi back to the village for burial?" β
Chen Nian didn't hide this from him, shook his head and said, "Don't go back to the village." I have found Xiaoliu's grave and want to send Ye Xiaoqi to her so that they can be companions. β
Lu Rongfeng nodded slowly, and then asked, "Do you need yΓ o I send a sergeant to help?" β
Chen Nian said: "No, I'll hire some people from the mountains." Uncle Lu should go and do his own thing, don't delay. β
Her words have come to this point, it is clear that she is driving away guests, Lu Rongfeng had to quit her and come out, and when she got out of the temple, she ordered the most clever soldier around her to rush back to Yiping and inform Song Yan of the news that Chen Nian was here. Song Yan received the letter and was not shocked. He was deeply trusted by Feng Junyang, and was left in Jiangbei Town to guard Yiping, because he was too far away from the Shengdu, he only vaguely knew that Chen Nian was married to Feng Junyang as the daughter of the He family, and never heard any news from her since, but he didn't want her to appear alone in Taihang Mountain.
Song Yan walked around the house a few times, recruited the deputy general to come over and explain the affairs of the city, and then took a few henchmen and soldiers and secretly left Yiping to the north of the mountains. When he arrived at the mountain temple, Chen Nian had not yet left, and she hired a carpenter to build a coffin for Xiaoliu, which was not yet finished. It's just that Chen Nian was impatient to see him, and after a face-to-face with him, he avoided the mountains.
Her body was too fast, Song Yan couldn't catch up with her, so she had to retreat to the temple to wait, and waited in the temple for two days without coming back, and then she had to go back to Yiping. He pondered for half the night, swaying several times between being cautious and meddling, and finally wrote a secret letter to Feng Junyang.
The letter was sent to Shengdu a few days later, sandwiched between a pile of 600-mile urgent letters, and placed on Feng Junyang's desk. At this time, the war in Jiangbei was becoming increasingly tense, and Mu Zhanyue seized the small town station on the south side of Jingyang, joined forces with Lu Xiao, and was attacking Yuzhou, the northern gateway of the Jiangzhong Plain. After Murong Heng led the army to the west, he did not rush in, but fought steadily all the way, and when he encountered the city, he must first send an envoy into the city to persuade him to surrender. If Kenkai surrendered, he would restrain his troops and pacify the people in the city, but when he encountered those who resisted, once the city was broken, he would face the disaster of slaughtering the city.
In this way, while appeasing and slaughtering, Murong Heng led the army to capture Xinye and slowly approached Lintong. The He family continued to ask for help from the court, Zheng Lun led troops to garrison Wu'an, and also asked Feng Junyang to send troops to attack Xinye, wanting to strike first. A letter sent to the military report, and the court and China were also arguing, although the Fengjun was still faint on his face, Shunping could see that his eyebrows and eyes were already gloomy.
Feng Junyang was slightly stunned when he saw Song Yan's secret letter, and when he looked at the back again, he saw that the letter read: "...... Although he only glanced at it from afar, it was the same as what Lu Rongfeng said, his description was haggard and thin, only the waist was slightly thick, different from other places, it was obvious that she was pregnant, but she did not hide it, I don't know if she didn't know it, or ......"
His hand trembled slightly. Shunping, who was standing on the side, didn't know why Feng Junyang was so out of shape, and when he was frightened, he saw Feng Junyang leaning back slowly, covering his face with the letter, and said in a dumb voice: "Go out." β
"Lord Wang......" Shunping said tentatively.
Feng Junyang didn't allow him to speak, but said: "Get out!" β
Shunping didn't dare to disobey his words, and although he was hesitant in his heart, he still cautiously withdrew from the door.
Feng Junyang fell back in the chair, not moving, but the covered letter paper slowly revealed a wet dizziness. He had been looking forward to this child, hoping to keep Chennian, but now that he finally had a child, she was no longer by his side, and it was impossible for him to come back. There was only a moment of joy in my heart, and then it hurt, and when it hurt too much, I felt numb again, as if I had been disemboweled, and my heart was taken out alive.
In the past, even other men looked at her twice, and he felt unbearable. But at this moment, he actually hoped that a man would be by her side, shelter her from the wind, protect her from the rain, know her hot and cold, and coax her to make her happy. He would rather that she was married to another man and have children for that man than that man was alone in the mountains to conceive and give birth to a child for him, alone.
He didn't want her to suffer like this again.
I don't know how long it took, Feng Junyang slowly sat up straight again, carefully folded the letter paper into his arms, called Shunping in, and asked, "Do you know where Chaoyangzi is now?" β
Hearing Feng Junyang suddenly ask about Chaoyangzi, Shunping felt a sudden shock in his heart.
