Chapter 48: The Sacrifice of the Flesh

Lin Wanqi entered a blacksmith shop around the corner, and the shopkeeper had already fallen asleep at this time, with a copper lock hanging on the door.

She checked the step on the hairpin and took a sharp position to unlock the door.

Chaoling was embarrassed: I never thought that Lin Wanqi would look at it without smiling, and the kung fu of sliding the door and picking the lock was a must.

She didn't dare to light the lamp for fear of alarming the shopkeeper, so she could only bend down and grope on the ground. There were hundreds of blades in the blacksmith shop, and most of them stood with long swords, Lin Wanqi looked at them one by one and pulled out one of them.

Lin Wanqi can see that these blades are no different from Chaoling, and her posture of holding the sword is different from ordinary people, because she is a daughter, and she lacks arm length and strength compared to men. Therefore, when she holds the sword, her wrist will unconsciously press down, keeping her entire arm straight with the long sword.

She looked at the sword for a long time, and the cold wind howled in the cold night, hitting the iron weapon, it was a bone-chilling light.

The sword was hastily shelved before it was fully cast, and the bare hilt and the unpolished blade were all announcing its fate of being abandoned by its master.

She rolled up her sword and went out of the blacksmith's door.

The injury she suffered yesterday was not healed, she didn't take a few steps to stop and gasp, and the mortal body would be crushed by such an injury, Lin Wanqi knew this better than Chaoling. But she still kept looking in the direction of Prince Yu's mansion.

This road Chao Ling recognized, the first time she fell into the mortal world, it was at this side door that she was tied up and carried in. Lin Wanqi walked lightly, easily avoided the guards patrolling the palace, and went all the way to Bai Yu's bedroom.

Prince Yu's Mansion is far more pure than the Prince's Mansion, Bai Yu is a general history book, good at strategy, and lives a simple life on weekdays, much like the honest minister in the book.

Lin Wanqi went all the way down the pavilion, and in a blink of an eye, she saw a light on in Bai Yu's room, and he was still reading at night at this hour, and there was no one else in the room except for the scholars who were serving.

She stood quietly under the lamp and looked at Bai Yu's face, anxiously rubbing the hilt of her sword, as if waiting for something. She was like a dormant beast in the night, sharpening her claws and waiting for her prey.

It turned out that the big thing she wanted to do was to come to see Bai Yu.

[Is there really someone who takes the risk of destroying the original spirit, just to see a lover who disappoints him? Or does she still have fantasies about Bai Yu? 】

Chaoling was stunned by herself, but she had an accident with Lin Wanqi, and there was nothing she could do.

At this moment, if Lin Wanqi defected to Bai Yu's camp, what kind of ending would it be, Chao Ling couldn't think about it.

The cold wind blew the flag in front of the door and made a whistle-like sound, which was a little desolate in the cold night.

Lin Wanqi moved her stiff fingers, put them to her lips and blew out a tune, the voice was sharp, breaking the silence in an instant, as if she had been spelled by something, Bai Yu, who was still struggling to write, froze.

"Shen Mu, didn't you want to throw that whistle away?" Bai Yu's face turned pale, and he angrily reprimanded his followers.

Shen Mu was stunned for a moment, trying to find the source of the whistle, Lin Wanqi shrank back, and his small body converged into the darkness.

The whistle was quick to hook the soul, and Bai Yu also began to be irritable.

This whistle was just an ordinary tone, clearly without any mana fluctuations, it manipulated Bai Yu's emotions and drew out all his negativity.

This sound is like a sound made by some kind of slender metal, not beautiful, sharp and abnormal, Lin Wanqi imitates it very similarly, I imagine that it is the sound of a human voice.

waited until Shen Mu walked farther away, and Lin Wanqi appeared. She had been running around for a long time, the wound in her abdomen was split, and she was oozing blood, she froze stiff, and the heat of the charcoal basin at the door melted her body, which made the wound more painful.

She dragged her sword and scratched white marks on the ground.

Bai Yu was stunned, he didn't think that Lin Wanqi would see him, he had also heard about her assassination, and now this person who was supposed to be lying in the prince's mansion appeared in front of Bai Yu, and he was in a trance.

"I'll change things with you." Her voice was a little dull, suppressing the pain of the wound. "The military report is in your hands."

In the first battle of Pingning Pass, Lin Qingping sent three military reports to send reinforcements to support, one of which was sunk by Bai Yu, and the other came to Xu Yanshu's hands but it was too late, and there was still one missing.

It turned out that Lin Wanqi knew, and she looked at Bai Yu's eyes with sadness and pity, because she knew it.

For a while, countless possibilities poured into the brains of looking for Chaoling, and in the end, the most tragic one took over, she wanted to kill Bai Yu.

"Jiaozhou Yushi Zhou Zixin once wrote a letter to me in a big tent, Zeng Yan saw the border guards in Jiaozhou, that's you."

"Why did you use the sentencing letter from the border guards that you intercepted from the military newspaper to disguise yourself as Lin Qingping and go to discuss the matter of grain hoarding with rich businessmen in Jiaozhou? You want to transport the military grain by water to Mobei, right? ”

"Then what is your deal with the Mobei Royal Family? Are they willing to take my brother's life for you? ”

This is what Lin Wanqi thought clearly at the bottom of the mass grave, Lin Qingping once suspected that Bai Yu's spies had infiltrated the army and stole ordnance secrets.

Lin Wanqi didn't believe it, until the first battle of Pingning Pass, she made an organ in the second military newspaper. The skill she learned from a military household when she was on the battlefield was to add a small mechanism to the letterbox containing the military newspaper to turn it into a whistle, and the sound was so special that every time the wind moved, it could be heard, and it could be heard from a long distance.

Today, she blows this whistle right here.

Therefore, it was determined that Bai Yu had seen this second military report.

Chaoling's scalp was numb after hearing this, Bai Yu killed Lin Qingping for the military power of the border guards, abolished Lin Wanqi's martial arts, and brought her into Prince Yu's mansion, all of which were logical and within the scope of Chaoling's acceptance.

Collusion with Mobei, just to kill?

Lin Wanqi clenched the long sword in her hand, her bones turned white with force, and she smiled at Bai Yu, "You just need to answer whether I am or no, if you say no today, I will believe it, do you dare?" Swear by the sword. ”

This sword also reflected two faces, and at that time, they never thought that the next time they met, it would be such a scene.

Bai Yu was taught by Zhenguo Gong when he was young, but he was weak and did not know the true meaning of swordsmanship, and was gradually surpassed by Lin Wanqi, who was much younger than him. He was young and vigorous at that time, abandoned the long sword and cried with the queen mother, and was sent back to the palace.

At night, Lin Wanqi turned over the wall door of the Queen Mother and came to see Bai Yu with this sword on her back. She asked Bai Yu why she spent a lot of money on this sword if she didn't want to learn it.

Bai Yu was speechless, it happened that he was cold, and when he was hit by Lin Wanqi, he was so hot that he coughed up two drops of blood, which scared Lin Wanqi into crying. Later, as if she had done something wrong, she obeyed Bai Yu's words every day, for fear that he would not live long.

And the sword was gradually abandoned, until before Lin Wanqi set out on the expedition, he found the sword and asked her on the city wall, wanting to keep her.

Lin Wanqi was dressed in armor and rings, dressed in red, and smiled wantonly, "When my Lin family's army calms Mobei, the concubine will go back to cast a sword for the adult." ”

The story of the two begins with a lie and ends with a game of conspiracy.

Bai Yu looked at the sword, time has passed, and he and Lin Wanqi are both true and false engraved in those rust marks. His eyes flashed, and the voice was towards him, you confessed your mistake, and you haven't said it yet.

He felt that his chest was cold, and the long sword had penetrated his chest.

He forgot that Lin Wanqi climbed back from the battlefield of Pingning Pass, and he had seen the charm and spirit, and he would never be moved by half a sentence of tenderness again.

"The Lin family, the master of high merit, the world only knows that General Xiaolin is brave and good at fighting, and the female generals of the Lin family have eyebrows. Your Majesty, I have hated it for a long time. Lin Chaochao, entering my Prince Yu's mansion is already the best life I can earn for you. ”

The long sword stabbed Bai Yu again, and Lin Wanqi's wrist was close to Bai Yu's chest, fiercely decisive.

Her wound was open, and she couldn't tell whose blood was at the moment. Flipping her gaze, she lay on the cold floor, beckoned to the air, and smiled in relief.

Chaoling knew that this was calling her.

"My mother said that the gods in the sky are the most merciful and will clean up the mess for me, the undead."

Chao Ling possessed him, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Who told your mother that you are also distressed and distressed by the immortals." ”

The sword just now had already consumed all her strength, and she couldn't tell half a point for this battlefield girl to stand up again. "Shaojun? Is that what they call you? ”

"My name is Chaoling."

"Aha, what a coincidence, everyone close to me calls me Chaochao. Is this our fate in a previous life? ”

Chao Ling smiled bitterly, "I don't have a past life, and I don't have an afterlife, you are different, if you leave Lechuan without permission, you will be exiled in the world and become a ghost." ”

"Devils are ghosts." Lin Wanqi's hand was still pressing the hilt of the sword, and she would subconsciously rub it when she was nervous, "I know that I have died once, and the gods want me to sacrifice my body in order to seek revenge on my Lin family." ”

"But I still want to see him again, to see how ridiculous my life is, and who almost put my life in the hands of someone in the end?"

Everyone thinks that Lin Wanqi is an excellent general, a female general.

But no one knows the other side of it, the love of children is long, she spent all her time to prove that Bai Yu is a credible and trustworthy person, and spent the slow years from the world to the bridge to think about the period.

Perhaps her brother Lin Qingping, standing on the bank of the Lechuan River, also thought that the only military report that could save the people of Pingningguan would become the last token of Bai Yu's collusion with Mobei.

Lin Wanqi's body was getting lighter and lighter, she felt that she was also floating in the air, and there was a woman in red with bright eyebrows, and gently called her, "Let's go, I'll send you to Nai He Bridge." ”

She knelt down in front of Chaoling, her soul would not shed tears, nor could she feel grief, but she stubbornly did not want to leave, just like every ghost in the Lechuan River.

"I want to ask Shaojun for one last thing." She kowtowed and said, "I am willing to sacrifice my body, even if my body and spirit are destroyed, and I will not enter reincarnation, I only ask Shaojun to use my body to avenge the Lin family." ”

Heaven and earth had already taken a step towards Ling to take away this dilapidated soul, and Lin Wanqi turned into a faint starlight and dissipated in a void.

In the future, there will be no sudden memories to capture this body, and there will be no red-clothed female generals lingering on the banks of the Lechuan River.

There is only a shackle engraved like the soul of Chaoling, and she swears with her soul, begging her to avenge the Lin family.
