Because of Ye Qiu's appearance, none of the hundreds of cavalry of the Zhao Kingdom dared to enter the city, and those cavalry troops standing outside the city began to retreat slowly, and then quickly disappeared on the long official road.

The soldiers of the Song Kingdom, who originally thought they were going to die, breathed a long sigh of relief after seeing Zhao Jun withdraw. They may really not be afraid of death, but no one will feel bad about being able to continue to live.

Under the order of the white-robed general, the city tower began to close slowly, and then someone separated those corpses, Song Guo's moved aside, and Zhao Guo's moved aside.

The bodies of those who died first were still collected, but no one knew what happened to those who died later.

And this caravan that was lucky enough to escape did not continue to enter the pass to the west, but stopped the procession, and the leading woman stepped out of the carriage, first died and saluted these soldiers slightly, and then saluted Ye Qiu, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to save my life again this time." ”

Ye Qiu smiled, "I didn't expect to meet you here." ”

The few living people in this small city were all gathered here, and they all witnessed what happened just now, and they all knew very well that if it wasn't for this thin young man just now, then they might have died under the iron hooves of the Zhao State cavalry now, and they all looked at Ye Qiu with a little gratitude at this moment.

And under a wall not far behind Ye Qiu, an old man in blue was leisurely knocking melon seeds, watching Ye Qiu talk to Min Shi at this moment, the old guy pursed his lips and muttered: "Good boy, there are really a lot of romantic debts." ”

After saying this, he continued to knock on the melon seeds, and no longer cared about anything else, whether it was the soldiers who were repairing the fortifications or the caravan that had survived the catastrophe.

If you want to stop the next offensive of Zhao State, the best way is to destroy the suspension bridge entirely, but in the territory of Zhao State, there may be the people of Song State, and now this is the only route that can enter the customs, and the white-robed general did not order the destruction of the suspension bridge.

As Ye Qiu said, he really didn't expect to meet Min Shi here, the Min family's industry is actually not big, and almost all the business has moved through the north, from the north to here, it is thousands of miles away, it stands to reason that Min Shi should not appear here.

Over the years, Min Shi's family has taken a lot of care of the spring, summer, autumn and winter mercenary group, and many strong people in the spring, summer, autumn and winter mercenary group were recommended by the head of the Min family, which can be said to be the credit of Min Shi.

So when Ye Qiu heard that this woman reported her name, he made up his mind to help Min Shi through this crisis, so as soon as this caravan entered the city, he went straight to the action.

Min Shi looked at Ye Qiu, a little embarrassed and sighed, it was only three years since she had seen her, and now Ye Qiu seemed to him to be like two people, compared with the sharp-edged teenager three years ago, Ye Qiu is now more mature and more stable, and she has actually heard a lot of rumors about Ye Qiu, and sometimes when she hears others talk about it, she even secretly feels happy.

So she actually had a lot to say, and finally only smiled and said: "It's really 'three days of Shibei, you should be impressed'." ”

Ye Qiu smiled and said: "Miss Min is too famous, but Miss Min, I haven't seen her for three years, and she is more and more motivated." ”

Min Shi was stunned for a moment, and then her face was slightly red, in her eyes, Ye Qiu should not have said such a thing, but after thinking about it, she and Ye Qiu had actually only had one contact, and they didn't know each other well.

After chatting casually for a while, the two just exchanged a word of cherishment, and then Min Shi took the caravan and continued to enter the customs towards the west, while Ye Qiu continued to go east out of the city with the old man of the technical building and stepped into the land of Zhao State.

————

At the end of the spring of the twenty-sixth year of Xiang'an of the Song Kingdom, the eastern border that had not experienced the war for nearly a hundred years began, and the first war began, the Zhao State led the entire 200,000 troops, and the border cities of the Song State were connected to the Song Kingdom, and in just half a month, there were more than 70 cities under the city, covering an area of more than 300 miles.

Then the Song State sent a general to protect the country, leading the army of 100,000, and the retreating defenders from north to south, building a city and establishing a pass, opening a front that was thousands of miles long, only to block the 200,000 troops of the Zhao State.

In the summer of the same year, Ye Chun carried a silver spear on his back, Ye Xia carried a long knife, and walked into the capital of the Song Kingdom, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led hundreds of civil and military officials to greet him in person.

These are all big things on the surface, they are all things that everyone can see, and where people can't see, there is a force that is slowly rising, a spider web hidden in the darkness, is slowly spreading, covering every corner of the Song Kingdom.

In the autumn of the same year, the Yunxue Empire suddenly stationed 300,000 troops in Yangguan City, and the Emperor of the Zhao family drove the expedition in person, and the entire Yunxue Empire worked together to defeat the Nanyang army in a battle, and it took only three months to fight under the city of Shun'an.

The army defending the city of Nanyang actually surrendered without a fight, and then the Yunxue army continued to advance westward, deep into the hinterland of the Nanyang Empire, at the end of the winter of this year, because the Yunxue army went deep into the hinterland, some supply support problems, the momentum of the Yunxue army suffered the first defeat since the expedition, the emperor of the Zhao family died in the Nanyang Empire, and the army could only retreat to Shun'an City.

Then Zhao Dingxiu inherited the throne, personally held the Yunxue banner, took the snow cloud horse and Bai Yuwei into Shun'an City, and began the second expedition to the Nanyang Empire, but it is a pity that the two armies are deadlocked at the foot of Dayu Mountain west of Shun'an City, and the victory is inseparable, and a dozen is three years.

And the people of Shun'an City wept with joy, waiting for nearly forty years of the world, and finally returned to the embrace of the Yunxue Empire, and the entire Shun'an City was decorated with lights to welcome the Yunxue army.

Under a hill in the south of Shun'an City, there is a tomb, and the tomb and tombstone are covered with snow, but you can still see the inscription on the tombstone - the tomb of the wind and prosperity of the Yunxue Empire.

This tomb has been erected here a year ago, at that time, it was still ruled by the Nanyang Empire, and there were more than once Nanyang people with hoes and threatened to dig up this tomb, but these people, whether they were soldiers or civilians, whether they were strong or ordinary people, could not get close to this tomb, just because there was a woman in yellow, standing in front of the tomb with a pipa.

At this moment, the woman was still holding the pipa, still standing in front of the grave, looking at the cold tombstone.

She stretched out a pale hand, gently stroked the inscription on the tombstone, and said in a voice that only she could hear: "Have you seen it? ”

She was the only one under this hill, and naturally no one answered her words.

She slowly closed her eyes, two lines of tears slowly slipped down, and her voice was a little lower, "Feng Changsheng, you wake me up, aren't you going to marry me, aren't you going to fight back with the Yunxue army, why didn't you do a single thing you promised me?"

The woman suddenly collapsed in the snow, then fell on the snow, sobbing softly.

That year, she was in the prime of her youth, that year, she was on the third floor of the heart-picking building, that year, he went upstairs for the first time, and was beaten out only when he entered the first floor, but he stood outside with scars and shouted: "Li Muxue, I am prosperous, and one day I will let you be my wife." ”

That year, she was twenty-one years old, and he was only fifteen.

She didn't actually take this matter to heart at that time, she was still concentrating on cultivation in the Star Picking Building, in her heart, there was only the Great Dao, only the expectations of her ancestors, and she had never thought about the love in the eyes of ordinary people, not to mention that it was just a child who didn't know the height of the sky and couldn't even afford to eat.

Then she didn't know how long it took, the kid came to the heart-picking building again, this time, he was stunned to climb the second floor of the heart-picking building, and then he was beaten down again, she remembered very well, that time he was covered in blood, almost half a life left, she thought he would definitely give up.

However, it didn't take long for the young man to come to the Star Picking Tower for the third time, and that day, it was she who personally shot him down from the third floor of the Star Picking Tower, and it was that time that she raised her strength to a level and became the guardian of the fourth floor.

After that time, he never appeared in the Star Picking Building again, which was something she had always hoped for, but for some reason, she felt a little lost, and would always stand by the window on the fourth floor of the Star Picking Building, hoping to see that stubborn figure.

I don't know how long it took, she only remembered that it was snowing heavily that day, and like today's heavy snowfall, the child had grown into a teenager, and he didn't say a word, he rushed directly to the fourth floor of the Star Picking Building and asked her to marry him.

She actually wanted to nod, but in the end she just shook her head and pointed to the stairs behind her, he still remembered that the young man didn't say anything, and went directly to the fifth floor of the Star Picking Tower, and then was thrown down from the fifth floor, not only did the guy not fall to his death, but also stood up, looked at her standing in front of the window, and said loudly: "Li Muxue, you wait, I will one day lead the Yunxue army and return to Shun'an City in a dignified manner." ”

And then that was the last time she saw him, all these years, she had been waiting for him to come back, she didn't want anything upright, she just wanted him to stand in front of her again, as long as he said, she would agree.

But he didn't, never again.

She couldn't remember how many years she had waited, and she had even blurred the young man's face, and she sometimes wondered if he had died in a corner of the Yunxue Empire, otherwise why he hadn't come back for so many years.

Then, he just came back and came back as a corpse.

So the whole city of Shun An was celebrating, but she really couldn't be happy.

As unhappy as she was, there was a little girl, who was also guarding a tomb at the moment, but this tomb was much lower and more desolate than the one that was long and prosperous.

This tomb, without a tombstone, is just a small mound, and in the damp earth, in addition to snow, there is also blood, blood from the little girl's fingers.

She dug the pit with her own hands, one by one, and then covered the grave one by one.

Her mother has taken her all these years, running around for a bite of food, and she has already accumulated a disease, and coincidentally, when Yunxue's army invaded Shun'an City, she fell ill, and then her mother took her to escape the war, and she fell down like this.

She hated the Yunxue Empire, hated why they didn't come early or late, but they had to come when their mother was sick.

She wiped her eyes with her little hands full of mud and blood, then knelt in front of the tomb and kowtowed three times, then stood up, looking at the colorful Shun'an City and the star-picking tower that was high into the sky.

She has always believed in her mother's words, and has always believed that after people die, they will become stars in the sky, and she also believes that as long as she stands on the star-picking tower, she can see her father and mother, and the family can be reunited.

So she must climb the Star Picking Tower, and she must bring her father and mother back together.

Then she just walked towards the east, towards the Cloud Snow Empire.

She still remembered what Master said, so she must find the place called Oriental Academy, and she must learn the same skills as Master.

————

Oriental College.

Zhou Kang stood in front of the gate of the outer courtyard, looking at the big stone tablet, which was engraved with many names, but there was no person.

According to the rules of the Oriental Academy, that person's name had already reached the qualification to be engraved on it, because that person not only broke through the door of life and death, but also broke into Shun'an City with the corpse of Elder Feng, climbed the Star Picking Tower, and even swallowed a divine dragon in the heavily guarded palace......

That person has written one legend after another, and that person's name has been imprinted in the hearts of everyone in the Oriental Academy, but he and the Oriental Academy seem to be like this.

His name has never been recorded in any form at the Oriental Academy.

After a long time, he took his eyes off the stone tablet, gently wiped the corners of his eyes, and sighed: "Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu, how are you doing now?"

He really misses him a little, over the years, they have been born and died, and their feelings for each other have long been imprinted in their hearts, even if they are too young, they can't forget that he actually envies Lin Feiyu, but he is Zhou Kang after all.

A thin man walked up behind him and said, "Dean, do you still want to recruit students this year?"

Zhou Kang shook his head, then looked at Zhang Fengyu and asked, "Ye Hua'an should enter the Spirit Sect this year, did he say where he was going?"

Zhang Fengyu nodded, "He should be going south to find the Ye family, he received a letter a few days ago, like it was sent by Ye Qiu's eldest brother." ”

Zhou Kang nodded and said, "What about a few of you?"

Zhang Fengyu said: "I, Duan Xiuxiu, Hu Yuanhu will stay in Oriental Academy, as for Wei Dian, it seems that he wants to go back to the family to take care of family affairs, and Yang Shiyin is the same." ”

Zhou Kang nodded, didn't speak again, and after a long time, he asked, "By the way, that Wang Xuanru, do you have any plans?"

Zhang Fengyu was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know, she has never interacted with us people, it's strange to say, in the entire Oriental Academy, except for Ye Huaan, she doesn't seem to be willing to pay attention to anyone." ”

Zhou Kang sighed: "If she can stay, it's fine, but if she insists on going to Ye Qiu for revenge...... Forget it, it's better to let them solve the matter between them. ”

At this time, a young man wearing the uniform of the Oriental Academy ran up, clasped his fists and saluted: "Lord Dean, there is a little girl outside, saying that she is here to study, and she also says that she is Senior Brother Ye's apprentice." ”

Zhou Kang and Zhang Fengyu were stunned, and Zhang Fengyu asked, "Ye Qiu's apprentice?"

The young man said: "That's what she said herself, but I don't look like it, but I don't dare to assert it, so I can only come to the dean." ”

Zhou Kang said: "Take me to see." ”

Outside the gate of the Oriental Academy, there stood a little girl, who looked to be only ten years old, her whole body was dirty, her shoes were even bottomless, the soles of her feet were stepping on the snow, and even blood was soaked in the snow, and her small hands and cheeks were red from the cold, and even purple.

It's hard to imagine how she got here from Thuan An City, and it's hard to imagine how she got here along the way.

Zhou Kang walked up to her first and asked, "Are you Ye Qiu's disciple?"

The little girl raised her head with some difficulty, looked at Zhou Kang, and asked, "Is this the Oriental Academy?"

Zhou Kang nodded, "I am the dean of the Oriental Academy. ”

The little girl knelt in the snow and said, "This is what Master asked me to give you." ”

As she spoke, she took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to Zhou Kang, the envelope was already very worn, and it was a little damp, and the ink on it had even fallen off.

Zhou Kang took the letter, opened it and saw that it was really a letter written by Ye Qiu himself, which probably told the little girl's life experience, and then asked him to accept this little girl, which was a kind of nostalgia for Elder Feng.

Zhou Kang put away the letter, picked up the little girl, and asked with a smile, "What's your name?"

The little girl said: "Erya, Dongfang Erya." ”

With that, she fainted.

Zhou Kang helped her and sighed softly, as if talking to himself, "This Ye Qiu loves to make trouble for Oriental Academy." ”

Zhang Fengyu asked, "Are we going to keep her?"

Zhou Kang looked at the little girl who was already unconscious in his arms, nodded and said: "Not to mention this child's talent, the tenacity of his personality can be said to be rare in a hundred years, and Ye Qiu's vision will not be wrong." ”

Zhang Fengyu nodded, looked at the little girl covered in scars, and said in a low voice, "How did she come to Oriental Academy?"

Zhou Kang didn't answer, exhaled a breath of white air, and said: "This kid and Oriental Academy seem to be destined by God, perhaps, Ye Qiu wants her to make up for his regrets in Oriental Academy." ”

On this day, Oriental College accepted a student.

This is the first student accepted by Oriental Academy since Ye Qiu left, and this student has no teacher in Oriental Academy, because her teacher is Ye Qiu, the Ye Qiu who was removed from Oriental Academy.

Many years later, there was a third student in Oriental College who broke through the door of life and death, and her name has been written into the history of Oriental College, and she is called Dongfang Erya.
