Chapter Seventy-Six: The Big Fish
That night, Shi Ping'an slaughtered chickens and cows, and held a banquet in the city lord's mansion to celebrate this great victory. The joy of the aftermath of the catastrophe filled everyone's heart, and none of them would have imagined that they had survived unharmed until tonight. They knew that all of this was brought to them by Ji Yunkong, and if it weren't for that god-like man, they would probably have become corpses on the battlefield or prisoners in the local military camp by now.
"Come, come, come, Ji Gongzi, I'll toast you again!" Shi Ping'an looked drunk, at this moment, he was really drunk, over the years, he had never been so happy as today.
"Where?" Ji Yunkong drank all the wine in the cup, and said happily, "I am not alone in this battle, in Luanyang City, it is impossible to lose anyone, if it is said that the greatest credit should belong to the deceased Mrs. Shi." Without her, how could the Ping'an Army be hoped, and the citizens of Luanyang City would not have worked together. ”
"Hahaha......" Shi Ping'an suddenly laughed when he heard this, "That's right, that's right, my wife, that's a first-class good person in the world, as long as he is a resident of Luanyang City, there is no one who is not favored by him." Shi Ping'an was really drunk this time, he danced with his hands, hugged Ji Yunkong's shoulders and didn't let go, kept babbling about his wife's benefits, crying and laughing, like a three-year-old child.
Ji Yunkong used his internal strength to dispel the drunkenness, called the maid to take care of Shi Ping'an, and walked out. When it came to the street, the night wind was miserable, blowing on the face and feeling a little cool, Luanyang City was in ruins, although most of the houses and buildings were destroyed, but Ji Yunkong could see something called "hope" on people's faces, with it, Ji Yunkong believed that a more powerful Luanyang City would be established soon.
"Childe." Lei Wanli appeared behind Ji Yunkong. In fact, he had already arrived in Luanyang City yesterday, otherwise, how could he have just appeared at the moment when the city-breaking crossbow was about to shoot on the city wall. It's just that Ji Yunkong thinks that the existence of Lei Wanli can't be their power to turn things around, and if the other party finds out the news, they will definitely work out corresponding countermeasures. Rather than this, it is better to hide it in the snow and wait for the sudden appearance of the war, which is why today's great victory has appeared.
"Uncle Lei." Ji Yunkong smiled and asked, "What about Han Lian?" ”
Lei Wanli replied: "Fairy Qingyun doesn't like to be noisy, and has already gone back to rest." ”
Ji Yunkong nodded, without saying a word, the two walked in the moonlight one after the other, indescribably quiet. After walking for a while, the two of them had all dissipated their wines, and they began to discuss business.
"Uncle Lei, what do you think of Luanyang?"
"What does Childe think?"
Ji Yunkong smiled and said, "It's worthy of being a 'thunder finger', sure enough, the old rivers and lakes pushed this problem back to me." To be honest, I don't want to bring any more war to Luanyang City, the people here are so lovely, they are kind, hardworking, simple, and sincere, probably under the influence of Mrs. Shi. I don't want him to be ravaged by war. ”
"But," Lei Wanli said with a smile, "Childe, it's a troubled time now!" ”
Ji Yunkong's footsteps stopped, and the cold moonlight shone directly on his cheeks: "Yes, it is a troubled time now, Luanyang City will be involved in the war sooner or later, in fact, they have been involved, if it weren't for you and me, the current Luanyang has become a ruin." Shi Ping'an doesn't have enough strength to protect this paradise, but, even so, I don't want to involve this region in my war. My path should not be at the expense of others. ”
Lei Wanli also walked out of the shadows and bathed in the moonlight with Ji Yunkong: "Childe, do you remember what you said to me that day?" "Naturally," Ji Yunkong said with a smile, "the road I am walking does not know the end, the length or the short, and the dangers, if I die, please step on my corpse and continue to move forward; If you die, find another man to carry on your legacy. ”
"Sure enough, word for word." Lei Wanli also smiled, "But, Childe, what I want to say today is." You won't die, at least not before I die. You don't want to see blood, but in this war, if you want to walk out of a different path from ordinary people, you will inevitably experience the test of blood and fire. If then, Childe, let us die for you. ”
Ji Yunkong was stunned, with his martial arts, at this moment, he almost fell to the ground. "Please let us die for you", what kind of mood did Lei Wanli have before he said such a sentence. All along, Ji Yunkong has avoided casualties because he doesn't want to see blood. Injury means bloodshed, and bloodshed represents resentment towards each other, and after resentment, it is even greater harm.
In the battle of Luanyang, Ji Yunkong killed hundreds of people, but there was no way, how could there be no casualties on the battlefield? In addition, Ji Yunkong only killed Wu Tian alone, and even the "Eclipse" was released. As Lei Wanli said, Ji Yunkong is unwilling to be stained with blood, and he is even more unwilling to see the death of people he knows. But today, Ji Yunkong actually heard the sentence "Please let us die for you" from Lei Wanli's mouth.
This sentence is by no means just a simple eight words, it means that Lei Wanli has gambled his life on the road that Ji Yunkong is going to travel!
"Okay," Ji Yunkong seemed to have made up his mind, "Uncle Lei, please die for me." ”
Lei Wanli listened, laughed, and decisively refused: "Don't!" The old man still wants to live and see what kind of scenery the end of the child's road is. ”
"Hahaha...... Ji Yunkong also laughed, "I knew you would answer like this." ”
Then, the two were silent and did not say a word, and walked slowly on this cold road, gradually moving away.
The same moonlight shines on different people, but the feeling of that person is completely different. For example, Li Yuanwei, who is on the run, now he can be regarded as hating the bright moon above his head. Although the moonlight was not very abundant, it was enough to illuminate the ground, which also added a lot of difficulty to his escape. It wasn't until after he fled that he remembered that he was surrounded by rebel forces, and now that he was separated from the army, he was like an unsuspecting sheep, who could be used as a bargaining chip at any time and place.
At this moment, Li Yuanwei, where is still half arrogant, he has reached the point of panicking, it can be said that the grass and trees are all soldiers, and the wind is loud. Moreover, the long-term attack also made him physically and mentally exhausted, and he had not eaten anything in one day today, which was unimaginable torture for Li Yuanwei, who had always been arrogant and expensive.
Gradually, Li Yuanwei stopped, and the horses under his seat were extremely tired, and as soon as the master got off the horse, he immediately lowered his head and gnawed on the grass. Li Yuanwei fell down on a tree to rest, he didn't want to sleep, but once he fell, the feeling of exhaustion instantly surged all over his body, and just like that, Li Yuanwei fell asleep groggy.
I don't know how long it took, Li Yuanwei was woken up by a cold wind, and when he opened his eyes, he was suddenly startled. I saw that the horses, which were grazing on the side just now, fell to the ground at some point. What was even more terrifying was that the horses had been neatly divided into several pieces, the skins had been stripped and left to dry, and the flesh had been cut into pieces of equal size and piled together, leaving only a skeleton reflecting the white light and blood on the grass.
"Ahh Li Yuanwei was so frightened that he was so frightened that he fainted again.
"Cut, I'm fainting, uncle, am I going too far? However, when I saw a good horse, my hands were itching. Phew, it's been decades, why hasn't the habit of killing pigs changed? Next to him, a big man with a big waist and a round waist carried a pig-killing knife similar to him and smiled.
"Forget it, anyway, Childe said that this big fish should live, as long as he is not scared to death, what do I care about him?" The big man sneered, picked up the unconscious Li Yuanwei, jumped into the woods, and disappeared immediately
