Chapter 184: Descending the Mountain by the Moon
Zhao Xiaolin bowed to her master, and sat cross-legged in front of the grave, closing her eyes and exercising.
The officers and soldiers under the mountain attacked the Holy Maiden Sect very fiercely, and there was a great tendency to break through, Yang Shucheng saw Zhao Xiaolin sitting upright, motionless, I don't know what her intentions are? I didn't dare to come forward and disturb her.
Seeing that she was sitting upright with her eyes closed, it had been more than half an hour, and she had no intention of standing up, Yang Shucheng raised his eyes and looked down the mountain, shouting and killing.
Yang Shucheng was very anxious, after a long time, he couldn't help but walk around in front of the grave, if the Holy Maiden Sect was broken, Zhang Suanying and Miss Ma Yue inside didn't know what the ending would be?
Yang Shucheng was so anxious that it was not a way to wait for a long time.
As the sky gradually darkened, the officers and men withdrew from their formations, lit bonfires, and prepared to cook, and soon the aroma of the food wafted to the mountains with the night wind.
Zhao Xiaolin didn't have the intention of getting up, Yang Shucheng couldn't, so he had to pick up the dead branches and yellow leaves on the hillside, pack them all into the cave, make a fire, and plan to sleep in this cave.
Zhao Xiaolin also stood up at this time, walked into the cave, and the two sat towards the fire.
Yang Shucheng opened the package, took out the dry food, and the two ate it separately.
After eating, Yang Shucheng went down the mountain, picked up some spring water in front of a small waterfall, brought it back, and gave Zhao Xiaolin two sips.
Yang Shuwei thought to himself, Chief Sect Leader Zhao didn't go to save the Holy Maiden Sect during the day, and stayed at night to sneak attack, but Zhao Xiaolin opened his mouth and said:
"Young Master Yang, I know you have doubts in your heart, blame me for why I didn't go to save the Holy Maiden Sect? I think that the Holy Maiden Sect and my White Lotus Sect have been in trouble for a long time, and it is not something that can be solved in a while, and we must take advantage of their danger to save them, there is no other way. ”
"Oh!" Yang Shucheng finally understood Zhao Xiaolin's intentions.
Since Yang Shucheng understands, he no longer worries about this matter.
At this time, the moon was bright in the sky and shone into the cave.
Zhao Xiaolin said: "Sleep, there will be a fierce battle tomorrow." ”
When Yang Shucheng heard this, he also added more vigor to the fire, and at this time the cold air had come down, and the fire baked the small cave warm, and the two of them went to sleep with peace of mind towards the fire.
Although Yang Shucheng closed his eyes, he couldn't sleep, although there was a beautiful woman sitting in front of him, but it was not the first time he had sat in a cave with a beauty.
Yang Shucheng, Fang Xiaoli, He Jinhua, Zhang Suanying, Yue Juan, and Zhang Xunmei were all in the barren mountains and mountains, and the two lived in a narrow cave, but they didn't have such a night, which made people unable to sleep.
Insisting on sitting for more than an hour, Yang Shucheng still had no sleep, opened his eyes, and looked at Zhao Xiaolin, the moonlight reflected on his beautiful face, as clean as jade, as white as snow, and the beating firelight was reflected on his face, as bright as peach blossoms, and as bright as the morning glow.
Yang Shucheng looked at this beautiful face, but it always made people uneasy, and it also made people unable to get close, and he couldn't help but feel emotional.
Yang Shucheng glanced at Zhao Xiaolin, immediately closed his eyes, and thought, if he can't sleep like this, it is better to take advantage of the moonlight and walk on the mountain road.
Thinking of this, Yang Shucheng stood up and walked out of the cave gently, although the moonlight was bright, but the mountain wind blew on his body, which also made people feel cool.
Yang Shucheng walked out of the warm cave, and was suddenly blown by the mountain wind, and his mind cleared up.
I thought that instead of lingering here, it was better to sneak into the Holy Maiden Sect first, and it was best to meet Zhang Suanying and Ma Yue. Thinking of this, Yang Shucheng took advantage of the bright moonlight and walked towards the bottom of the mountain.
After a day of fierce fighting, the officers and men fell asleep, and tents were set up along the mountain road, stretching for seven or eight miles, from here, there was no end to sight on either side, and the lighted lanterns hovered between the mountains like a long dragon.
The officers and men were already asleep, and there was no sound at all, only the soldiers who were on patrol at night, carrying torches, walking back and forth to and fro.
In addition, there is the roar of wild beasts in the mountains in the distance, the sound of pine waves in the distance, and the sound of the waterfall can be heard if you listen closely.
The mountain was so silent, Yang Shucheng walked down the mountain step by step. After walking four or five miles, we were almost in front of the tents of the officers and men. It was a large clearing, surrounded by a large black forest, and it was so dark that nothing could be seen, but it was infinitely terrifying.
Yang Shucheng didn't dare to look at this black forest, and was about to raise his feet and walk forward.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of footsteps in the dense forest, stepping on dead branches.
There was an ambush.
Yang Shucheng was very alert, and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the way he came, running more than a dozen steps away, hiding in a dense grass.
Quietly looked down, but saw two people coming out of the dense forest.
Yang Shucheng looked at it and was shocked, these two people recognized it.
It is Liu Junyi father and son.
What is the purpose of these two people here?
They have already defected to the Manchu Qing outside the Guan, and when they came to this mountain, did they also want to pull the Holy Maiden into their Jinguan Dao Changcheng Tuding group?
His father and son hid here, and they didn't show up during the day, did they have to learn from Zhao Xiaolin's plan and rescue the Holy Maiden Sect when it was the most dangerous, so that they could defect to them?
Thinking of this, Yang Shucheng wanted to tell Zhao Xiaolin about this and let her take precautions in time.
Therefore, Yang Shucheng crouched in the grass, looking at the two fathers and sons of Liu Junyi standing in the col, what actions did they have?
The two men stood in the valley and looked around, and heard them say:
"There seems to be a figure just now."
"Really?"
"It's gone in a flash, and it looks like it's Yang Shucheng."
"If that Yang Shucheng is there, don't let him run away. If this kid slips out of our hands, it won't be easy to catch him next time. ”
"Dad, if it's him, let's go and see, don't we."
Liu Zhengyu said: "No, it's quiet in the dead of night now, if we go up the mountain, in case we startle the snake, it's not a trick, this stinky boy is very good." ”
"Yes. Especially that Zhao Xiaolin, who was young and beautiful, I really didn't expect it, but her heart was very deep, and she even promised Cheng Tuding on the surface, and along the way, Chen Yinjian, who followed, was killed by her coldly. If we hadn't secretly followed, we would have really been deceived by her. ”
Liu Zhengyu said: "I'll just say that this woman is not simple, because you were so infatuated with her in the past." Now it's okay, you recognize her true colors, the people on the rivers and lakes are sinister, and if you don't pay attention to it, you don't know how she died. ”
"Daddy, what do we do now?"
Liu Zhengyu said: "We are still the old way, stay here, and reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”
"Okay."
The two of them talked, their voices getting lower and lower, and finally they muttered, unable to hear what was being said.
After talking for a while, stretching a few times, the two of them went into the dense forest again.
Yang Shu planned to sneak into the Holy Maiden Sect, but now that the father and son of the Liu family were in the way, he still went back and told Zhao Xiaolin about their tricks, so that she could take precautions as soon as possible.
Yang Shucheng made up his mind, stood up again, and quietly walked towards the mountain.
Along the way, there was no rest, only the night wind blowing from the ridge. Looking back at the bottom of the mountain, the dense forest that hid the father and son of the Liu family had been blocked by the mountain, and the lights on the mountain road were dotted, like a long dragon, Yang Shucheng accelerated his pace and ran towards the mountain.
Before returning to the cave, Zhao Xiaolin was still sitting cross-legged as before, her face like a full moon was so serene, dignified, and calm, as if she didn't know that Yang Shucheng was back. In fact, Yang Shucheng knew in her heart: she must know.
Yang Shucheng walked into the cave, the fire was a little darker, so he stepped forward to add some dry firewood, and the fire suddenly burst into flames.
Yang Shucheng sat opposite Zhao Xiaolin, the two were very close, and her breathing was still so calm and subtle.
After this rush, Yang Shucheng had no distracting thoughts in his heart, and soon fell asleep.
Soon it was dawn, Yang Shucheng opened his eyes, and Zhao Xiaolin was missing on the other side. Yang Shucheng quickly got up and walked out of the cave.
Zhao Xiaolin's beautiful figure appeared in front of the cliff, she stood in the wind, down to the ten thousand ravines, the morning wind blew the long-sleeved clothes, she was really a fairy in the upper realm who stood in the world.
Zhao Xiaolin felt that Yang Shucheng walked out of the cave, turned around, and said with a smile: "Young Master Yang, did you sleep well last night?" ”
Yang Shucheng said: "I couldn't sleep at night, so I went down the mountain for a walk." As he spoke, he told Zhao Xiaolin about meeting Liu Zhengyu's father and son.
Zhao Xiaolin said: "These two people don't have to worry. ”
The two of them went down to the canyon, and there was a waterfall here, which flowed down from the top of the mountain, like a wisp, blown away by the wind, fluttering and flickering.
The two of them washed their faces at the waterfall. Walk back to the cave.
The two of them ate some dry food. At this time, the sun had risen to the top of the eastern mountain, and the shouting and killing sound under the mountain came from afar.
Zhao Xiaolin picked up the long sword and said to Yang Shucheng: "Young Master Yang, let's go." ”
Yang Shucheng followed Zhao Xiaolin as he said, and walked briskly towards the fierce shouting and killing.
