Chapter 3 The bell is called the Mandate of Heaven
"The name of the bell is 'Chasing Souls', this name is really unpleasant, since you are the princess's heavenly general, then this bell will be called 'Destiny' in the future. I want God to bring you, there must be a providence in the dark, I like the rain people in "Mountains and Seas Strange Chronicles" the most, they are more pitiful than the shark people, I always think so.
"Fortunately, Mr. Ning said that they have a long life, and the merman since the founding of our Great Xia, has repeatedly strictly forbidden to hunt and kill the merman in the East China Sea, the merman's tears become pearls, priceless, they can also weave a skirt like ice and snow, that is, I wear it, we call it 'Bingluo skirt', winter can isolate the wind and snow, I heard that Bingluo is the most legendary sea emperor of the merman, the hero who resisted the demon army back then.
"Your name is Earman, how come I've never seen such an alien race in a book. Yes, there are so many things in the world, how can I know them all, but unfortunately your eyes can't see, and besides, you don't seem to be very good at talking, otherwise I would take you to see the gardens of the palace. Many people envy us who were born in the emperor's family, but I know that the emperor's family is the most ruthless. My father loves me so much, I always feel that I should grow up and be sensible quickly. In the past few days, my father has asked me to read more military books and historical volumes, and I have listened to Mr. Ning talk about major events in the world, and I feel that the emperor's family has hidden too many rights and wrongs. I can't really appreciate how ruthless it is, but I think it must be terrifying. The little princess leaned on a pear blossom wooden chair with a bell tied to her wrist.
The blind boy opposite her stood quietly, staring at her with blank eyes, not knowing if he understood her.
"Mr. Ning said that you can kill people for me, and taught me how to control the bell, there are two points of 'killing' and 'royal', all of which are meant by letting you protect me, and the person who will not use the bell will shake it indiscriminately, but will only provoke you to kill. The killing technique is attacking, the imperial art is defending, as long as I skillfully control the bell, you are my shadow. "The little princess shook the bell, and the bell sounded pleasantly and rhythmically.
With the ringing of the bell, the blind boy drew his saber, the sword was like a snake, the knife was like a tiger, the knife, a weapon to kill, a sharp weapon to take the head of the enemy in the army.
The knife came out of its sheath, and the young man's face suddenly became murderous, and he turned sideways and swung the knife to the corner.
A water ripple swayed and moved, and it was Ning Changqing's voice that sounded, "It's also great that you can find out my location, Your Royal Highness Princess, please retreat if it is dangerous." ”
The water man waved towards the little princess, and countless water people appeared around him, surrounding the blind boy.
The little princess watched the young man being besieged by the water people, and replied, "He is the princess's heavenly general, how can I leave! I have the destiny of heaven in my hand!" The bell shook and turned into a royal killing.
The young man's knife slashed through a half-moon trajectory, and the cold light swept by, and the heads of the water people flew and water droplets flew out.
He walked as fast as lightning, and took Ning Changqing's head with a knife, as fast as thunder, and walked over a distance of more than ten steps in an instant.
"So fast!" Ning Changqing turned around and pushed his palm, and a whirlpool appeared in front of the sailor's hand, entangled in the blade that had been slashed.
"Break!" the young man abandoned the knife and retreated, the sound was like a bell, and all kinds of precious pottery around him were shattered, and the little princess was also pale, sharp weapons can kill, and the voice can also be.
Ning Changqing said calmly: "The general roared! Yes! The fierce general can be a man and a man, and he must learn to shout angrily, the general roared before the battle, deafening to kill the three armies, and there are many brave generals in ancient times, and the three drinks shattered mountains and rivers!" Ning Changqing moved to the side, and the young man rushed forward, taking the knife before the saber landed, and swinging the knife in one go, the action was done in one go, and the sound of breaking the air sounded, and the knife bit Ning Changqing's chest like a poisonous snake.
In the end, all the blade slashed through was the invisible air, and a series of half-moon arc footprints remained on the ground, which were small droplets of water.
The droplets end at 10 paces away.
Ning Changqing stood in the corner where he was originally hidden, revealing his true body, wearing a sword in Tsing Yi, calmly.
The blind boy held a knife to protect the little princess and did not act without permission.
Ning Changqing coughed slightly, his face was pale, since he returned from the dead realm, he had become more and more haggard, and half of his original black hair had become white.
The little princess looked happily at her Heavenly General, the boy with his back to her, with thin shoulders, but at the moment he seemed to be like her father, with the courage to hold up a piece of the sky for her. She remembers hunting with her father as a child and being attacked by tigers and leopards, which is how she protected him. Since then, she has felt that her father is her hero, a man who stands up to the sky.
"Although his sword skills are very powerful, but it is not enough to protect the safety of His Highness, if I wanted to take His Highness's life just now, he swung his sword to kill the enemy, and the assassin would have taken His Highness's head.
"And Your Highness, don't act rashly, if you don't protect yourself first, the slave will be distracted to protect you, living and dying together is a very chivalrous thing, but the king never needs such courage, unless he is forced to do so, what he wants is only the ability to use power.
"If the times make His Highness a good person who is willing to give, then His Highness, if the times make His Highness a ruthless butcher, then it is also His Highness, and the power should be used according to the situation, and the changes are like yin and yang unpredictable, so that people can't guess it.
"His Royal Highness is the future lord of the Great Xia Kingdom, after the death of the Empress, Your Majesty will not tolerate other women, and there will be no one who can continue the bloodline of the Bing family.
"No matter how many people think of His Highness as a canary in their cage, they will all pay a damn price for this idea. There are still many tigers and wolves in this world who want to kill Your Majesty like stars in the sky, Your Highness Bing Xue is smart, please think carefully about what Changqing said, and be loyal to your ears. This blind young man is a dead soldier of His Highness, his life is destined to be sacrificed for His Highness, and he will die with the dead. Because only those who are alive and kings have a chance to turn defeat into victory, and when people die, they will never have a chance to turn things around. This is the emperor's power technique, I would rather die for the people of the world for me than for the people of the world. Ning Changqing moved and turned into a water man and left.
The little princess frowned slightly when she recalled Ning Changqing's words, the bell shook, and the young man put the knife into the sheath.
"Mr. Ning said that you are very powerful, it seems that he did not lie to me. He probably wants you to save me in a moment of crisis rather than bear the hurt at the expense of your own life. Although the emperor's family is ruthless, I don't want that. If the king wants to pave the way for so many bones in order to survive, I don't want to be the king, but. The little princess looked at the young man worriedly, she was still just a child, of course she couldn't fully understand what Ning Changqing said, and even if she did, she couldn't fully accept it.
"Ahh The boy spoke indistinctly.
"What exactly are you trying to say. The little princess shook the bell.
The young man said intermittently, and the little princess waited patiently with the bell, and finally he said a few words, "Ah, Ayu, Bao, Protect, Ayu." Then he closed his mouth and said no more, and looked at the little princess with empty eyes.
The little princess's eyes were filled with tears, and she smiled: "You are my dead soldier, of course you have to protect my safety!"
"Protection, protection. The blind boy repeated.
In the middle of the night, the little princess went to sleep, and the palace maid who kept watch was sleepy leaning against the pillars of the hall.
The blind boy knelt on his knees in the outer chamber with his knife pressed on his sword, and the moonlight fell to the ground like water, and his empty eyes were closed.
From sunset to dark, from dark to dawn. Outside the window, the snow was full of morning songs.
Another night passed.
