Chapter Forty-Eight: The Perfect Battle Plan
Jiang Wangchen watched Luo Xiao and Luo Yu disappear into the corner of the garden, and his heart was lost, although there was still a chance to meet in Lingfu tomorrow, but in that mixed and reluctant environment, how could he be relaxed and comfortable, raise a glass to invite the moon, and he still had important matters to do tomorrow, let alone that leisure. If you can send the flowers to Luoyu's hands, it would be good to leave a thought, but it's a pity that the flowers were cut off by the flowers before they succeeded, and I don't know if I will say goodbye here, when I will see you again, Jiang Wangchen will inevitably sigh when he thinks of this, and he is very embarrassed.
Jiang Wangchen had a reluctant look on his face, Hua Youyou saw it all in his eyes, smiled slyly, and said playfully: "What's the matter, everyone is gone, and I can't bear it!"
Jiang Wangchen didn't pay attention to the flowers, and with a little drunkenness, Lang Lang chanted poetry and lyrics: "The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, the book is used when the hatred is less, there is no grass at the end of the world, and there are few thousand cups of wine for confidants." Good poems, good poems......" Jiang Wangchen shook his head for a while, and sure enough, he wrote a poem, and his heart was relieved a lot.
Hua Youyou smiled: "Such a poem without artistic conception dares to boast that it is a good poem." ”
"You don't understand, the poems don't care about the content of the poem itself, but more about the mood and mind when the poems are written. Jiang Wangchen explained impassionedly, as if he was a literati.
Hua Youyou didn't interrupt, and listened quietly to Jiang Wangchen after drinking and blowing cowhides before responding: "Let's go, go to my room." ”
Jiang Wangchen was about to step out, but he felt inappropriate: "I'm still sleeping in the firewood room." ”
Hua Youyu smiled and said, "What are you thinking, I just want to discuss tomorrow's plan with you." ”
Jiang Wangchen nodded like a garlic and said, "This is the best, this is the best." ”
Hua Youyou said angrily, "What's the matter, I have wronged you in my room, ouch...... What a chaste young man......"
Under the full moon, Jiang Wangchen didn't care about the faint jokes of the flowers, and while following the moonlight, he continued to chant poems against each other, and walked to the guest room leisurely.
Hua Youyou handed Jiang Wangchen a cup of warm tea and said, "Do you have any plans for tomorrow's actions?"
Jiang Wangchen drank a cup of warm tea, the wine subsided slightly, and said, "Create chaos and take advantage of the chaos to commit crimes." ”
"This is my hand-drawn map of the Ling family according to Xiao Liu's gossip. Hua Youyu nodded, then pulled out a crumpled piece of paper.
Jiang Wangchen couldn't help but admire, and said, "It's still your thoughtfulness." ”
Hua Youyou spread out the paper finely, and pointed at the paper: "This is the direction of the main entrance, enter from the main entrance, bypass the Xiao wall, and go straight to the lobby, there is a stone gate on the right side of the courtyard outside the lobby, turn right from the stone gate and walk to the end, you can see the dungeon, and there are some guard handles in the dungeon." ”
Jiang Wangchen looked at the rough hand-drawn map of Hua Youyu, thinking about the layout of the Ling Mansion in his mind, and asked vigilantly, "How does this little six know so clearly?"
"Xiao Liu worked as a chorre in Lingfu two years ago, and then he came to the inn to be a buddy because he wanted to learn cooking. ”
Jiang Wangchen said: "Then when you mix in with the guests to create chaos. I took the opportunity to sneak into the dungeon to rescue the Bamboo Shoot Beast,"
"Okay, then at dusk, at sunset, my side will cause a riot, you should be more careful on your own side, if the guards are too tight, exit first, and then we will think of other ways, don't force it, you know?"
Jiang Wangchen pressed down the teacup, nodded, and suddenly thought of a crucial issue that had not yet been solved, and said, "Then how do we get into the Ling family?"
Hua Youyu replied faintly: "Act when you have the opportunity." ”
Jiang Wangchen couldn't think of a better way, so let's do it first, anyway, if he couldn't get in, the plan would be stranded first, and it would have no impact.
"Then tonight, let's do it first, I'll go back to my room to rest first. Raise your spirits, tomorrow will definitely turn the Ling Mansion upside down, and the chickens and dogs will be restless. Jiang Wangchen put down the cup and didn't stay.
"Jiang Wangchen, what are you anxious about?" Hua Youyou said angrily: "I haven't explained it clearly...... You take this. Hua Youyou said, took out a coarse cloth sack from under the table, threw it to Jiang Wangchen, and continued: "There are also these earrings, as a token, when the spirit bamboo shoot beast sees you, you only need to take out the earrings, and they will know that I sent you, and they will naturally go with you." ”
"What's the use of this coarse sack?"
"You'll know when the time comes. Hua Youyou saw Jiang Wangchen walking in a hurry, and was impatiently perfunctory.
Accepting the earrings, Jiang Wangchen said "good night", then turned around and closed the door to leave.
That good night had not drifted away, but it was replaced by the sound of "babbling" from the door shut, and Hua Youyou did not open her mouth to save it, because she knew that Jiang Wangchen, who came out of the door, was not something she could keep. Last night's stability suddenly became empty tonight, and that pair of gentle and thick shoulders, she hadn't quit yet, and she had to force herself to get used to the lonely pillow.
How do you stay up for such a long night? Hua Youyu asked herself, drank another cup of warm tea, and felt completely sleepy. The night is poignant, the moon is cool and thin, it is better to open the door, so that the night breeze and moonlight outside can be cared for, and let them have a companion, Hua Youyou put down the warm tea, but the door was pushed open before she got up, she saw that the figure turned his back to the moonlight, as if covered with a layer of silver sparkling armor, dazzling and bright in the lonely night, that pair of eyes full of sorrow, should have the same confusion as her, after all, this long and lonely night, not only belongs to her, if two people share together, loneliness should be halved.
Hua Youyu was like a shy spring, and said in a low voice: "You are back." ”
Jiang Wangchen stood outside the door and asked embarrassedly, "I forgot to ask just now, what does the Spirit Bamboo Shoot Beast look like?"
"That's it?"
"yes, that's it, what else?"
"It's round, white, and a bit like a turnip. Hua Youyou was not angry, but said flatly: "Then hello, can you get out?"
Jiang Wangchen saw that Hua Youyou lowered his head and gloomy face, where did he dare to stay longer, so he hurriedly closed the door again and trotted all the way down the stairs. When passing by the water pavilion again, I couldn't help but stop, the moonlight was like yesterday, but the tower was empty. Jiang Wangchen didn't climb the mountain, and he didn't dare to stay longer, so he went straight back to the firewood room.
In the Iron Mansion, a panicked footsteps disturbed the tranquility under the moon, and Manager Weng hurried through the corridor, seeing that he was holding a long knife in his left hand, and the blade of the knife was vaguely visible in the moonlight, and there was a cone-shaped collapse in the blade, and on his right hand was holding a piece of paper, and he didn't know that it was written on it, just looking at it being held tightly in his hand, he knew that the content must be very urgent and important.
When he came to the door of Tie Yi's bedroom, Manager Weng could take a breath, and a quick knock broke the quiet Tie Mansion and shattered Tie Yi's dream.
"Who is it?" Tetsuichi's tone was rather impatient.
"Master, it's an old slave......"
Tie Yi changed into a cotton robe, opened the door and asked, "Manager Weng, what has to be reported so late." ”
Chief Weng directly handed the knife and paper in his hand directly to Tie Yi, instead of the pale explanation.
It is a rough piece of bamboo paper, which has been slightly scratched by sweat stains, and the pen and ink on the paper are blurred, but the handwriting is still legible. Tie Yi held the bamboo paper tremblingly in his right hand, his expression was complicated, but the few numbers on the paper firmly attracted his eyes.
"Xinghao...... Water cut-off ...... Twin knives!" Tie Yi read the handwriting on the paper intermittently, and then held the male knife of the two knives with both hands-Mingyue, and gently stroked the blade with his right hand, as silent and delicate as spring breeze and rain, and his calloused fingertips rubbed on the wound of the blade over and over again, trying to imagine how fierce the battle was at that time based on the friction of this wound alone. Tie Yi stayed at the fingertips of the pointed cone point where the blade was broken, but he couldn't feel the knife intent flowing out, the corners of his mouth couldn't help spasming, and his heart was like a knife - Mingyue's knife intent had been completely exhausted, and the aura in the knife was also trickling down, like scrap iron.
This flowing water double knife is Tie Yi's work of collecting the mountain, and it is also his proudest work, and he is fortunate to give it to his best friend, but now the double knife is separated, the bright moon has fallen, the hair is gone, and the best friend is no news, life and death are unknown, and suddenly the sadness in his heart cannot be suppressed, such as the night wind, blowing cold.
Iron turned blue and asked, "How did you get this letterhead and the broken knife?"
"Back to my lord, this is Xiao Cai, who is patrolling at night, found it at the entrance of the lobby. ”
"Didn't you find any suspicious traces?"
"No, not even a footprint. ”
"You stand down!" Tie Yi said, and when Chief Weng took a few steps back, he spoke again: "Tomorrow, you ask Li Forge to relight the furnace, and I will personally repair this broken knife." ”
The cold light of the blade confronted the cold moonlight, and the defeat was defeated before it lasted for a moment, such a shame must have been a joke for the rest of my life yesterday, but it is not enough to worry about now. Tetsuichi didn't mind that, and he pondered who had sent the knife here...... What does the knife giver mean...... While holding the knife out of thin air to cut off the night wind that passed unbridled from under the placket, this slash also had no knife intent flowing, nor was it vigorous, but it just fell plainly, and the knife light faded away.
Tie Yi withdrew the remnant knife, the wind was not cut, bypassed the eaves, whistling to the north, blowing him back to many years ago, the same cold north wind, he personally gave the water cut double knife to Xing Hao: "Xing Hao, this water cut double knife is smelted by the Seven Star Furnace, and I personally tempered it for seven seven forty-nine days, whether it is smelting or opening the front, it is also flawless, the double knife shape is like flowing water, and the knife is self-contained." ”
Xinghao was not polite, and said proudly: "Then let me see if these knives are as you said, if not, then I won't accept them." ”
"Don't worry, this is the condensation of my iron half of my life experience, but also my mountain work, after the water is cut off, I have no confidence to rebuild better, it is better to leave it at that, the right to be a swan song. ”
Xing Hao held the double knife, the palm of the palm was close to the blade, and a coolness came, and there seemed to be a cold light flowing along the edge of the blade on the blade, and finally stopped at the tip of the knife A little dazzling, bursts of knife intent overflowed, the knife did not shoot, and the knife intent was the first to swoop.
"Good, good, good. What a right to be a swan song!" Before he started, Xing Hao actually praised three times from the bottom of his heart, and he was no longer self-sustaining at the moment, the bright moon in his left hand and the clear hair in his right hand had already resonated for a long time, and today he finally waved it for the first time in Xing Hao's hands.
Watching Tie Yi who danced the knife on the side, seeing Xing Hao's spirit can be world-beating, standing incomparable, the double knife is like a dragon going out to sea, making waves, and he also clapped his hands again and again: "It seems that this water-breaking double knife belongs to you, it is really a treasure knife with a hero." ”
Tie Yi's laughter was still there, but only the sound of the crane chirping in the wind corresponded, and the sentence "Naturally it's me!" had already dissipated in the wind before it entered his ears.
