Chapter Twenty-Four: Wine from the Top of the Mountain
The group rode away from the foot of the West Mountain and went straight to the vast West Mountain.
Obviously, the sword that is worth fifteen cities is determined to be obtained, only Xiao Chen is hanging slowly behind everyone on a horse, he can't figure out what this farce is hiding today!
Cao Xun would never have fiddled with the Zhongjun Sword for a hunt, and Bai Qi would not really have taken a fancy to the Zhongjun Sword and had to participate in the hunt.
These two people can't see it, there must be another game.
Xiao Chen frowned and pondered, at this time, he really regretted that he didn't read a few more sage books, the books are full of loyalty and patriotism, and how to behave in the world, but he can't stand that someone is really smart, and when he looks at the book upside down, it is full of sinister ways of deceit and duplicity.
Xiao Chen is also an open-minded person, if he can't figure it out, then don't think about it.
Anyway, as long as he doesn't touch Yong'an, even the upheaval of the Wei Kingdom has nothing to do with him, maybe he can take advantage of the chaos to take in a few down-and-out wealthy women, wouldn't that be the same blissful enjoyment as the king of heaven?
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen grinned, and led Wu Liang and the three of them to sit down next to a mountain stream in Xishan.
Looking down from the mountain stream, the mountains are lush with birds chirping, and the occasional horse's hooves can be heard, followed by the thunder of bows.
The kings rode horses to hunt, and Xiao Chen lay down and drank mountain springs.
When he was tired, he leaned on Sun Simiao's arms, took a break with the roar of the mountain, and when he was interested, he could rub the beautiful body, so as not to attract Sun Simiao's shyly reprimand.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves approached closer and closer, Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and only a black Pegasus stopped in front of Xiao Chen condescendingly.
In the territory of Wei, except for Xiao Chen, the people who have Tianma and can appear in Xishan at this time don't have to think about it to know who it is.
On horseback, Bai Qi held a spear in his hand, and looked at Xiao Chen in Sun Simiao's arms with a sigh in his eyes.
Xue Wuxing's face was vigilant, and he immediately protected Xiao Chen.
Turning over and dismounting, Bai Qi gently pushed Xue Wuxing away, and then glanced at Sun Simiao meaningfully and said:
"This one, I think it's the princess of the dead country that Emperor Wei secretly raised in Kyoto!"
Facing this high-powered, arrogant and domineering general of the Wei State, Sun Simiao couldn't help but bow her head in fear.
Bai Qi looked at Sun Simiao behind Xiao Chen unscrupulously, and only after a moment did he sigh:
"It's indeed a woe woman!"
Xiao Chen slowly stood up and glanced at Bai Qi lightly:
"The general went to great lengths to get the qualifications for this line of hunting, and instead of chasing deer in the mountains and forests, he had the leisure to hang out here?"
Bai Qi laughed: "It's just a loyal sword, I don't take Bai Qi in my eyes yet!" ”
Xiao Chen's eyes sank slightly, and his heart was really like this. With a chuckle, Xiao Chen said again: "Then if that's the case, I don't understand, since General Bai has no intention of being loyal to the Jun Sword, why do you have to come to Xishan?" ”
Glancing lightly at Sun Simiao, who bowed his head and was silent, Bai Qi muttered:
"You just think I'm here to save you!"
Xiao Chen was silent, located in Yong'an, with 5,000 elite soldiers, no matter how you look at it, he is not the one who needs to be saved.
As if seeing Xiao Chen's doubts, Bai Qi smiled:
"The prince is willing to go with me, and I will take the prince to see the grand scene!"
Faced with the invitation of this arrogant and domineering general, Xiao Chen did not answer immediately, and Bai Qi chuckled and waited without impatience.
After a while, Xiao Chen laughed and said:
"It's an honor for Xiao Chen to be able to walk with the general!"
Hearing Xiao Chen's decision, Wu Liang on the side suddenly showed a trace of panic in his eyes.
"The prince can't ......"
You must know that Bai Qi is a master who doesn't even care about the emperor, if he really disagrees, Wu Liang has no doubt that Bai Qi dares to do something to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen, who had made up his mind, waved his hand lightly, walked to Hei Feng, turned over on his horse, and then said to the three Wu Liang:
"You wait for me here, I'll go back!"
Bai Qi looked at Xiao Chen, who was free and easy on horseback, and his eyes showed an unprecedented look of appreciation.
With a chuckle, Bai Qi put his crotch back on the horse's back, and with the horse's hooves, the two gradually drifted apart.
Wenfeng Cliff of West Mountain, located at the top of West Mountain, Wenfeng Cliff is thousands of feet high, towering into the clouds.
Regardless of the weather or rain, there is a mountain wind raging on the wind cliff, although the literati do not like to come here, but they always love to take the lyrical chapters here.
On this day, a jar of wine was placed on the Wenfeng Cliff, Xiao Chen and Bai Qi sat opposite each other, and there was no one around.
The mountain peaks were raging, blowing Bai Qi's long black hair, Bai Qi turned a blind eye, and poured a bowl of wine for Xiao Chen.
As the wine enters the bowl, the intoxicating aroma of wine suddenly diffuses.
Xiao Chen, who had tasted countless wines, instantly smelled that this was the best rosemary in the wine, looking at the shiny silver armor on Bai Qi's body, Xiao Chen muttered to himself:
"Not all the soldiers like fire!"
Bai Qi, who had a keen sense of hearing, smiled slightly, and said while pouring himself wine:
"The prince is wrong, if it's time to fight for life and death, other fine wines will have no taste, just like the girl the prince likes, she always has to have a distinct personality in order to win the favor of the prince, right?"
Xiao Chen grinned, and secretly said Although this wine is good, where can it be compared with a woman with all kinds of amorous feelings, this glance knows that Bai Qi doesn't understand women.
But he didn't say this after all, firstly, because the way is different and not conspiratory, and secondly, he still wants to give this famous general some face. Anyway, it is impossible for him to like burning in his life, and there is no need to really force Bai Qi to study women.
Picking up the wine bowl, the two drank a glass of each other, like two old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, it was hard to imagine that this was actually the first time the two sat down to talk face-to-face.
In the fourteenth year of Kyoto, Xiao Chen stood under the hall or in the corner and looked up at this invincible general, sitting face to face today, Xiao Chen suddenly found that the general who was like a god before was actually like this.
A pair of eyes and a mouth, a big knife will cut down a human head and it will fall to the ground.
"What do you say you will show me?" After the wine was drunk, Xiao Chen also let go of some and asked casually.
Bai Qi pointed to the foot of the mountain below the cliff and smiled without saying a word.
Looking in the direction Bai Qi pointed out, the mountain scenery at the foot of the mountain shrank countless times, and it came straight into Xiao Chen's eyes.
The temporary camp set up by Cao Xun was at the location pointed out by Bai Qi, and after a closer look, a drop of cold sweat flowed out of Xiao Chen's forehead.
I saw that in the jungle outside the temporary camp, there were countless armored people crawling like ants.
Xiao Chen could see at a glance that those soldiers were the same soldiers who had come to Yong'an with Cao Xun before, so many people were ambushed there, and their purpose and intentions probably didn't need to be said.
Xiao Chen's eyes showed a look of enlightenment, and he suddenly understood why Bai Qi had to go to Xishan to hunt alive or dead.
If you really want to stay there, when the six princes of them go back hunting, I am afraid that what they will see is Bai Qi's cold corpse.
In front of all the princes, he killed the most arrogant and domineering general of the Wei State, and his trembling power is not necessary to think about it.
Cao Xun's game of chess today is really not small. For a while, Xiao Chen's danger to Cao Xun in his heart rose by two points.
In an instant, Xiao Chen supported his chin with his hand, and his face showed a touch of incomprehension!
"What else does the prince not understand?" Bai Qi took a sip of wine, with a faint smile on his face.
Xiao Chen shrugged, pointed to the foot of the murderous mountain and said, "What do I think, it was the general who saved himself, where did he come from to save me?" ”
Bai Qi, who heard this, laughed, and then pointed to the other side of the camp and said:
"Then look over there!"
This time, Xiao Chen was completely stunned, the mountain wind blew, and Xiao Chen, who was originally hot from alcohol, was like falling into an ice cave at the moment.
Because in another col outside Cao Xun's temporary camp, a big flag with white characters fluttered in the wind, and under the banner, thousands of soldiers and armor were waiting for him!
Xiao Chen's face finally showed a solemn expression, and he looked at Bai Qi and said:
"The general wants to rebel?"
Bai Qi was still laughing, but there was a hint of banter and ridicule in his smile at this time.
"If the emperor wants to kill me, it is a matter of course, and if I want to kill the emperor, it is a rebellion?" Bai Qi asked towards Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen was silent suddenly, perhaps because of his lack of reading, Xiao Chen actually felt that Bai Qi was reasonable!
The word rebellion is a shackle that someone deliberately locks in the minds of the world, someone wants to kill you, and you are still stupid to be killed, that's something wrong!
Seeing that Xiao Chen didn't refute himself, Bai Qi suddenly showed a smile of surprise. Waving his hand, Bai Qi said lightly:
"Don't worry, the world is stormy now, and Wei still needs Cao Xun, so it's not yet time for Cao Xun to die, but since he wants to kill me, I always have to pay it back."
Slowly getting up, Bai Qi smashed the wine bowl in his hand off the cliff, and from time to time he heard the shouts from under the foot of the mountain to kill the heavens, and then, the sky-high fire instantly swept the entire temporary camp.
The light of the fire and the setting sun on the horizon dyed most of the sky bright red.
Bai Qi suddenly looked back at Xiao Chen and chuckled:
"Lord Wang, do you think this scenery I took you to see is beautiful?"
At the foot of the mountain, the earth was stained red with blood, as if it were as red as the sky.
Xiao Chen nodded and said:
"Something interesting! After all, it is much more lively than the fireworks on Chinese New Year's Eve. ”
Bai Qi smiled disappreciatively and said:
"Twenty years ago, your father Cao Ding had a life-saving grace for me, if it weren't for him, there would be no Bai Qi today, for his sake, I will send you a word of advice."
"I know that Cao Xun intends to win you over, but if the prince is really on the wrong line, this fireworks may be burned to Yong'an!"
Bai Qi's words were obviously very cold, but he continued with a friendly smile on his face:
"Lord Wang, do you think my reminder today saved your life?"
At the foot of the mountain, the battle came to an end almost quickly, Cao Xun's personal guards were almost completely wiped out, only Han Feng desperately protected Cao Xun and rode away!
Xiao Chen nodded deeply:
"Thank you so much, General!"
……
The fire under the mountain was in the sky, the princes on the mountain chased the deer, Xiao Chen returned to the mountain stream, and lay down in the arms of the beauty again, only the Wei Emperor Cao Xun fled in embarrassment!
Wu Liang took a step forward and whispered to Xiao Chen, who was frowning:
"Lord Wang, what did Bai Qi show you?"
Xiao Chen smiled dumbly: "Ambition! ”
