Volume 2 Chapter 105 - Ambush at Night (2)
Ling Yinyun smiled and said, "Are you praising me, or are you hurting me?" ”
Qian Yan'er raised her pretty face, her smile was as sweet as a spring, and said, "When you really rescue me, I will praise you again." ”
Ling Yinyun said: "Don't do it, I'm afraid of you." Thinking of what happened earlier, Ling Yinyun made up her mind that if she escaped from here, she would no longer have anything to do with her. The Assassin mounted his horse and chased after him with the sound of horses' hooves, and within a few moments the Assassin shot at them with his bow. Ling Yinyun didn't pay attention, and was grazed by an arrow, and blood oozed from his shoulder. Qian Yan'er exclaimed, "You are injured!" ”
Ling Yinyun gritted his teeth and said, "It's just a small injury, it's not in the way." In the face of everyone's pursuit, he had to drive both horses and people, and he lacked skills, and he was stumbling. He secretly thought that if he continued like this, one day they would shoot him off his horse. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, bowed his head and said, "That's good, you drive the horse for me, and I will contain them." ”
Ling Yinyun let go of her hand and clamped Qian Yan'er's thigh with her feet to immobilize her to prevent her from falling off the horse. Although Qian Yan'er's pretty face was red and her face was gloomy, her life was the priority, and she couldn't care about being reserved. Ling Yinyun took the longbow, turned sideways, and shot arrows backwards. He has been fighting for many years, and he has long been skilled in guerrilla warfare in the mountains and forests, and in a few moments, three assassins have been shot off his horse.
At this moment, Qian Yan'er suddenly shouted, Ling Yinyun turned back suddenly, and was surprised to see that not far ahead, there was a narrow and rapid stream.
Under the dilemma, Ling Yinyun turned his heart sideways, held the reins, leaned forward, approached Qian Yan'er, snuggled tightly, and immediately shouted, kicked the horse's belly violently, and the shadow accelerated and dived violently. Just near the stream, Jueying leaned forward and jumped in the air, and when Qian Yan'er opened her eyes and came to her senses, the two had arrived on the opposite bank.
Ling Yinyun looked back at the pursuers, the assassin stopped his horse, did not dare to cross the water easily, just raised his longbow and aimed it at Ling Yinyun and them. Ling Yinyun gripped back the reins, didn't look back, and drove forward with all his might. I don't know how long it took for them to finally get out of the woods.
Ling Yinyun didn't dare to underestimate the enemy, and always kept preparing for battle, and because of this, he approached Qian Yan'er, but he didn't notice it. Qian Yan'er lowered her head, her jade cheeks burned red, pursed her lips, didn't say a word, and let him be close. It wasn't until he saw the fine smoke in front of him that Ling Yinyun let down his guard.
Qian Yan'er looked back and said, "I owe you a favor, what reward do you want?" ”
Ling Yinyun thought for a while and said, "As long as you don't hold your brother accountable, that's enough." ”
Qian Yan'er laughed and said: "I don't blame him for this, how can I investigate it?" If you are willing to accompany me on a night hunt, I have promised to do so, so this favor should not be confused. ”
Ling Yinyun felt a little embarrassed: "I can't think of it for the time being." ”
Qian Yan'er narrowed her eyes, smiled sweetly, and said, "Since that's the case, why don't you make a price?" ”
Ling Yinyun was surprised: "Offer? ”
Qian Yan'er explained: "My father is in charge of finance in the Vermilion Bird Country, my mother is a big dyeer, I have known business since I was a child, everything has a price, I can't shout, only can't afford to open." ”
Ling Yinyun frowned and said, "There are many things in this world that are difficult to measure with money. ”
Qian Yan'er said casually: "I asked you to make a price, just to make yourself feel better, and I don't want to owe this favor." ”
Ling Yinyun paused and asked rhetorically, "Then I saved you, how much do you think it's worth?" ”
Qian Yan'er's eyes lit up, she laughed coquettishly, and said, "You learn very quickly and become so fine." But I don't want to answer, you think for yourself. ”
Ling Yinyun didn't expect her to throw the question back, he felt a big headache, and after thinking about it for a while, he said, "That's good, if you really don't want to go, just give me fifty taels." ”
Qian Yan'er was slightly displeased, and said with a slight annoyance: "Do you think my life is only worth fifty taels?" ”
Ling Yinyun smiled bitterly: "That's not the case, but I only dare to take fifty taels." ”
Qian Yan'er wondered, "Why do you say that?" ”
Ling Yinyun shrugged his shoulders and said, "You are the exercise of the Vermilion Bird Country, I will take fifty taels with you, if someone finds out, you can lie that it is a bet." But if I take five hundred taels, it will not be justified. ”
Qian Yan'er smiled and said, "It seems that you have really become much smarter." She pondered for a long time and said, "It's okay to give you fifty taels, but just like that, I'm afraid I can't let go." ”
Ling Yinyun asked, "What else should I do?" Before the words could be spoken, Qian Yan'er turned sideways, hugged his neck, greeted his pretty face, and kissed him affectionately. After a long time, she leaned back an inch, smiled, and said, "I believe that this kiss must be more than fifty taels." Suddenly, Ling Yinyun was at a loss, and he came back to his senses only when there was more drumming in the camp.
Ling Yinyun said worriedly: "Although I bandaged you, it was only for emergencies, and after returning to the camp, you had better find the imperial doctor to check it again." ”
Qian Yan'er said earnestly: "Today's matter is a secret between you and me, don't tell it." Although Le Pingjun sent someone to assassinate you and me, he must leave a hand, and if you make a sudden complaint, you will be deceived. Don't tell even your brother about it. ”
Ling Yinyun nodded and said, "I understand." ”
Qian Yan'er flickered, glanced at him, and said with a smile: "I have already paid off the favor of the people, and you and I will no longer owe each other in the future." The two then fell silent, and no one spoke again. After returning to the camp, Qian Yan'er's family will come to greet her, and the two will separate.
Back in the tent, Ling Yinyun saw the Ji sisters, sitting on the seat, waiting for him to return. When the Ji sisters saw his injury, they were so frightened that they lost their faces. Ji Dongmei said with concern: "Master Ling, what happened?" ”
Ling Yinyun remembered the abrasion on his shoulder, and said casually: "Don't get in the way, don't alarm others." Ji Dongmei nodded, cleaned his wound for him, and bandaged it slightly. On the side, Ji Xiahe poured wine for him and said, "Master Ling, early tomorrow morning, you'd better go and find Deputy General Geng." He waited for you outside the tent until our sister couldn't bear it and tried her best to persuade him, and finally let him go back to the tent to rest. ”
Ling Yinyun showed surprise and said, "Why don't you invite him into the account?" ”
Ji Xiahe lowered his pretty face, sighed lightly, and said helplessly: "Deputy General Geng is an upright person, and he is afraid that he will be talked about if he is in the same account with us." ”
Ling Yinyun sighed: "Big brother is dead-eyed. ”
Ji Xiahe stared at him and said busily: "Master Ling, don't blame Deputy General Geng, if he hadn't been guarding the door, Le Pingjun's people would still want to be rude to us." ”
Ling Yinyun frowned and said, "Le Pingjun's people? ”
Ji Xiahe frowned slightly, and said with a bow: "They sent someone over, as if they were looking for Ling Ye." When they saw us, they became unruly. Fortunately, Deputy General Geng was present and drove them out. Ling Yinyun felt a chill in his heart, thinking of the matter of Fang Cai, it must be that Le Pingjun wanted to confirm his life and death before he sent someone over.
Ling Yinyun couldn't help but sigh: "Alas, why don't I offend people, people offend me." ”
Ji Dongmei looked at him and said indifferently: "This is the status quo, no one can help it, Ling Ye may think that when he returns to Xuequan Pass, he can be out of sight and have a leisurely life." In fact, once the crown prince takes power and the country is in chaos, no one can predict what he will do. ”
Ling Yinyun said coldly: "Do you still want to persuade me to join him?" ”
Seeing his solemn expression, Ji Dongmei was shocked, and lowered her head and said, "Don't be annoyed, Dongmei doesn't dare." On the side, Ji Xiahe did not restrain herself, she fell on Ling Yinyun's back, her skin was close to each other, and the fragrance came from her hair. Ji Xiahe said gloomily: "Does Master Ling dislike us?" ”
Ling Yinyun was surprised in his heart, and looked back: "Why do you say that? ”
Ji Xiahe pursed his thin lips and said quietly: "If this is not the case, why did our sisters agree to sacrifice themselves in exchange for Ling Ye's help, but Ling Ye is still unmoved?" ”
Ling Yinyun's body was shocked, and he felt a big headache, with the beautiful appearance of the Ji sisters, if they are willing to dedicate themselves, there will be many people who are willing to die for them. Unfortunately, this matter is very involved, and if one is not good, not only him, but everyone around him will suffer because of this, which makes it difficult for him to agree. Ji Dongmei frowned lightly, and said coquettishly: "Xia He, don't embarrass Ling Ye." ”
Ji Xiahe straightened up his chest and said with a disapprehensive expression: "Sister, don't you cry like a tearful person?" If we had half the appearance of a queen, Ling Ye would not be so patient. ”
Ling Yinyun was puzzled and said, "Why did you mention the queen?" ”
Ji Xiahe pursed his lips, and said unwillingly: "Godfather has already set up eyeliner, and there are also his people here, how can you hide it from us when you go to see the queen?" ”
Ling Yinyun frowned and said, "I don't have such a relationship with her. ”
Ji Xiahe sighed and said: "We know that the queen is far-sighted, and we can't reach it, she doesn't need to offer beauty, and she can make a man go to the soup and fire, and it's not too late." ”
Ling Yinyun asked, "Listening to your tone, you seem to be familiar with her?" ”
Ji Dongmei sighed lightly and said in her heart: "It's not a secret, the queen and General Bai briefly joined hands to destroy the enemy, and then they parted ways and no longer contacted. General Bai mentioned the queen many times, saying that she was very scheming, and it was difficult for anyone in the palace to match her, and warned us to take precautions. ”
Ling Yinyun's heart froze, thinking of the recent events, Xing Mengying's wrist was really powerful, which made him impressed, if she regarded herself as an enemy, I am afraid that she would have died a few times. Ji Xiahe shot a look of resentment, and said, "Master Ling, you tell us honestly, are we really inferior to the queen, and teach you to look down on you?" ”
When Ling Yinyun heard this, he was stunned and at a loss. If you say that you are not motivated, it is undoubtedly a lie. But Ling Yinyun was also worried about whether he would give them a chance to avenge him if he confessed. He thought about it for a long time and couldn't make a decision, so he had to divert the topic and said, "Speaking of which, you have a very good calculation. ”
Ji Xiahe blinked his starry eyes, tilted his head and asked, "Why did Ling Ye say that?" ”
Ling Yinyun said: "If you think about it, what Bai Zilan wants in his heart is by no means easy, and it will take several years to achieve it." At that time, you have passed away, the beauty is twilight, the years are gone, even if it is successful, I have suffered a loss. Not to mention that if you fail, you can't get half a penny, and everything will be in vain, isn't it sad? ”
