Chapter Ninety-Six: The Sword is One
An old man with a gleaming beard slowly climbed up the tower, followed by a young girl. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info girl combed two big braids, held the old man's hand, and led him up to the city tower in this way. The old man coughed twice, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, but the blood seemed to come from a corpse that had long since dried up, dark and terrifying. The old man was expressionless, he just moved his mouth: "Butterfly, we have traveled thousands of miles, and finally come to Liuli City." ”
"Expressionless" seems to be contagious, or the old man has some kind of blood relationship with the girl, which makes the girl's face cold. She nodded.
The old man sighed: "If Yingchen were the Central Plains, it would have been snowy for a long time. Maybe people want to review the fireworks in Liuli City in the twilight. ”
"There's nothing better in the world than fireworks?"
"Not really. The old man looked down at the bluestone steps and said in a different tone: "Fireworks are our busy life, when they bloom, they seem to see ourselves, how can we be willing to free up our eyes?"
The girl didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, she just went up with the old man step by step, "I didn't expect Liuli City to belong to Persia, but it is between the Western Regions and Yumen Pass." ”
The old man just laughed, perhaps he didn't think it was worth answering.
But in my heart, I thought: the land is just a code, and if a certain emperor waives a glass of wine, he will make the world bleed, and the blood will stain the land, and it will become a name. Perhaps today this is the territory of Persia, tomorrow it will belong to the Han Dynasty, and the day after tomorrow it will be under the jurisdiction of the Western Regions.
How many pieces of land have not changed through the ages?
Success or failure turns empty!
People don't care who this land belongs to, they still have to live, they still have to love each other on the land. Liulicheng is a place that literati and ink writers like, the lights of the green buildings on the two streets are non-stop, and some girls wear "fluffy" ornaments. They bit Luo Juan, sang and danced...... For a moment, the old man looked a little stupid. He seemed to be caught up in some kind of memory, until the maiden tugged at the corner of his coat and gave him the object on his back.
"I'm sorry. ”
The girl closed her eyes slightly, "Sorry who?"
"You, and your mother. The old man looked up casually, "I really want to go back, but I can't go back." ”
He opened the object, and a sword as thin as a cicada's wings and as transparent as a mirror.
He tore off the human skin mask, and his face was even colder than the mask.
He said, "Die'er, how about you go have a cup of tea?"
The girl seemed to sense something, and pulled the corner of the "old man's" clothes tightly, saying that she would not leave.
Women seem to have a talent for seeing through at a glance whether a man is lying. She hugged him tightly from behind, easily reminding him of a man. This man had given her heart to him, and she gently wrapped her arms around her waist, "It is a woman's prerogative to believe in your lover, and it is your responsibility to prove yourself." It's a pity that the world is regrettable, and it is not in vain that he has walked through such a lovely girl in his life, and he also left him a "butterfly".
Who would have thought that the "old man" would be the number one swordsman in the Western Regions.
Until this time, he remembered someone's whisper: "I don't like crowds, they are sometimes like sheep, they go wherever they go, and they lose their way all their lives." Maybe it's more fun with wolves. ”
Yi Jigou is like a wolf.
Looking at his eyes, he has a pair of sword eyebrows and starry eyes, which usually shine, but once the sword is drawn, it will be a nightmare in the world.
Unfortunately, his sword was not as fast as it used to be, and he had not been seen in the world since the death of a certain woman. Until the appearance of Butterfly, this girl who faltered to the door.
His sword was back to its peak, even faster than ever. It's a pity that it was a little late, and when Die'er found him thousands of miles away, he actually got tuberculosis.
He didn't dare to look back into the girl's eyes, because he coughed at any moment, and in some places pointed tuberculosis to an infectious disease.
Thinking back to the beginning, was the young swordsman too shy to look at her?
At first glance, she occupies the eye socket.
"That's you, why are you peeking at me?"
"I ......"
"Well, I'll show you if you're not weird. ”
I didn't expect to look at it, just watch it for so many years, and he didn't have enough. He would like to look at that face for the rest of his life. Before Yi Zhengou became famous, he was favored by the eldest daughter of the Persian nobleman "Jin Wu Clan", and the two fell in love at first sight and made a private decision for life in Liuli City. Later, Yi Jigou went to various places in the Western Regions and achieved prestige, but when he returned, he did not find the girl.
It turned out that the Persian royal family married, the eldest daughter of the Jin Wu clan was forced to marry, the Jin Wu clan did not comply, and actually used a soft sword as thin as a cicada wing to cut the neck and died, after the death was found to have been in childbirth, it was crowned with the notorious of "not chaste", in the Persian kingdom that pays attention to women's discipline, she was sentenced to death: the body was exposed to the scorching sun for three days and three nights, the head was hung on the execution platform for seven days, and there was no intact piece of flesh when she died. It was two years later when Yi learned the news.
At that time, Yi Jinggou's swordsmanship ranked "third" in the vast Western Regions, and the Persian royal family was afraid of his revenge, so they had already ambushed 10,000 elite soldiers, and even summoned the "first" and "second" at that time with a lot of money, wanting to completely wipe out Yi Jinggou.
But since then, Yi Jingou has become the "No. 1 Swordsman in the Western Regions".
No one can describe the battle at that time, only the mountains of corpses in the palace. A bloody man was covered in bruises, and the sound he made as he slashed his enemies was terrifying, and the "Second Swordsman" was scared to death. This man actually took the bones of his lover in the battle of 10,000 elite soldiers. At that time, he blew away the dust on the soft sword, the Persian imperial city, he killed all the way out like that, and no one dared to leave him.
Crazy?
The beauty is bone-in-one, and the bloody blade is ten miles.
He became the "first" swordsman for one person, and when he looked back, that person was no longer there, why was he still holding a sword?
Maybe he loves him too much, and her smile is still echoing.
"The person I like is definitely an extraordinary person. ”
"What makes an extraordinary person?"
"At least first, where do you think you are most capable?"
"Sword. ”
"Then be the first swordsman, if you don't marry me with this name, I will hate you for the rest of my life. ”
"Do you believe me?"
"Hmm. ”
"Do you dare to pin your life's happiness on an unknown homeless boy?"
"It is a woman's prerogative to believe in her lover, but it is your responsibility to prove yourself. ”
After all, he still climbed to the top of the glazed city alone, watching the fireworks, are there thousands of needles pricking his heart?" "We agreed to be the first swordsman, and now I have only done half of it." He forced his cough and didn't want his blood to stain the beautiful fireworks. He will never die! He will never die until he fights the famous "sword snatcher."
The covenant he had to keep with her.
The sky and the earth are frightening, and the yellow sand sweeps through the sky.
Suddenly there was a vision.
