The spring rain failed to wake up Yuzhang City in Yan State. When the other countries of the Yan Dynasty were bathed in the fragrance of birds and flowers, Yuzhang was still filled with a biting chill. The gray sky pressed heavily on the city, lining the lonely emptiness between heaven and earth, and occasionally a few lone geese chirped sadly.

A noisy noise in front of the city gate broke the silence of Yuzhang.

A soldier posted a notice on the city wall, and the idle people who came and went crowded to see the excitement.

"He Buning was cut at noon, this name is a little familiar......"

"Oh, you're stupid, isn't He Buning the god general who beat the northwest barbarians back!"

"Bullshit! The people of the Northwest still have nothing to harass Yuzhang! What's the good thing about those who are in office? I know that we civilians are exploited and fight each other every day, and I think it's good to die! ”

You can't talk nonsense, be careful of being beheaded.

"Huh? He's going to be beheaded, and he's still afraid of what people say? I've heard that he lost his last battle very badly before he was dismissed! was beaten to the ground by the Northwesterners, and many soldiers died! ”

A group of people crowded at the door and made a lively noise, each with their own opinions, and a few young people who were arguing fiercely were almost about to fight.

"Get out!" The most ferocious middle-aged man standing at the front of him was suddenly knocked to the side by force, and his head hit the city wall, making him dizzy. He looked at the man who hit him with annoyance, a scrawny teenager.

The boy viciously tore the notice off the wall, his bleeding hand scratching a bloody streak on the wall. He desperately tore up the notice, and he threw the shredded pieces of paper out of the city, alarming the soldiers defending the city.

Two soldiers with guns impatiently pushed away the idlers with surprised faces and shouted, "What's the matter! ”

"Official!" The middle-aged man who was hit immediately restrained with a fierce expression, and approached the soldier with a flattering face, "This kid just tore up the notice you posted and beat me!" My head still hurts! ”

The middle-aged man's flattery, apparently pleasing the soldier, stepped forward and pulled the boy by the hair, wanting to teach him a lesson. The young man's scalp was pulled tightly by him, and after a muffled snort, he stopped saying a word, and stared straight at the soldier.

I saw the boy half-kneeling on the ground, his worn pants scraping several big holes in the rough ground, and the wound on his knee oozing blood. His eyes reflected the gray sunlight, but he couldn't hide his deep anger, and his body was tense and stiff, like a young wolf licking his wounds alone under the moon, but still fierce.

The boy suddenly raised his head and bit down hard at the soldier, the soldier screamed in pain, and it took a lot of effort to throw the boy out, and the teeth marks on the wrist where he was bitten were clear, and the white bones were visible.

"!" Under the crowd watching, the soldier felt that he had been humiliated, he was about to raise the gun and stab him, but was stopped by the middle-aged man, who whispered in the soldier's ear: Although he injured the adult, but according to the law of Yan Kingdom, the crime is not death, if the adult kills him, he will harm himself, how worthwhile! Wouldn't it be better to beat him so that he would be worse off than dead, crying and begging for mercy?

As soon as the two of them combined, they laughed gloomily and viciously.

The soldier turned the gun upside down, and the handle of the gun slammed into the boy who had fallen to the ground, and the gun made a dull sound against the flesh, like a whimper in the wind. The place where he was beaten was already bloody and blurred, but the boy just stared at the soldier fiercely, gritting his teeth and gurgling, never refusing to make a sound, his hand arch grasped the ground in the shape of a claw, his fingertips almost inserted into the ground, and the nails that could not withstand the huge pressure instantly cracked, and the blood swam in the water on the ground, swimming along the ten fingers of the young man.

The onlookers had obviously never seen such a cruel scene, but none of them showed unbearable looks. The women walked away in a panic, screaming and screaming. The men were a little disgusted at first, but by the twentieth or thirty blows, they gradually got used to it, and overlapped the young wolf-like expression with that of the Northwesterners, and their eyes were on fire, and their hearts were a little happy, and several young people even grinned and asked to come up to help.

When the soldier's gun was about to drop at the eightieth stroke, the gun was stopped by a sword from nowhere, and the tip of the sword was raised, and the gun was thrown out violently, and it was stuck straight in front of the middle-aged man who was not far away, causing him to scream in fright.

Two young men on horseback stood at the gate of the city, and the white-clothed young man with a sword looked arrogant, and he didn't even look at the soldiers. When the soldier saw that it was only a young man who had stopped him, he was furious, snatched the gun from the ground and stabbed it.

The young man in white didn't raise his eyes, one hand behind his back was on the horse, the wrist holding the sword flicked, and the tip of the sword lightly blocked the gun that the soldier desperately stabbed, but the soldier didn't react, and then the cold sword edge was already on the side of his neck, and his hand holding the gun stopped in mid-air, not daring to move again, for fear that the sharp tip of the sword would pierce his neck.

The onlookers were dumbfounded, they could only see the smooth curvature of the young man in white, the long sword in his hand pierced the dim sky of Yuzhang City with a glittering glow, and the birds on the trees were also startled by the cold sword light, leaving a few long songs.

It's like a god!

Everyone bowed down in unison, "Divine Messenger! Please leave us alone! ”

Who is the Divine Messenger? Lu Gu was disgusted by the faces of these people, the tip of the sword moved, and an inch-long bloody mouth was cut on the soldier's neck, and she quietly asked Xie Qingyan behind her, "Did you kill this person?" ”

"Don't kill." Xie Qingyan also whispered,

"Dirty."

Lu Gu smiled with satisfaction, this wood finally had a heart-to-heart with her, and finally lowered her eyes, looking at the frightened pale face of the soldier who was still acting just now in disgust, and said coldly, "Get out!" ”

The soldiers fled desperately from the city as if they had been granted amnesty, and the people who watched the bustle were scattered.

Lu Gu rushed to Xie Qingyan and ordered: "Go and pick up the child." ”

"No, no."

"You're a sidekick!" Lu Gu glared at Xie Qingyan angrily.

Xie Qingyan looked at Lu Gu through the hat, his eyes were black and white, and a layer of tulle was like mist shrouded in the white mountains and black waters, which made people's hearts numb.

"Damn, I'll go!" Lu Gu turned over and dismounted, slapped the sword in his hand on Xie Qingyan's body, and didn't forget to roar, "You are not allowed to look at me!" ”

When she walked over, the young man lying on the ground still had a wisp of breath, and he saw that Lu Gu had just made a move for him, but there was still an indelible vigilance in his round eyes. Lu Gu was a little distressed, at a similar age, I don't know how much suffering this young man has endured to make him have such fierce eyes that are different from his peers.

She said softly, "Don't worry, we don't have any other purpose. Now we're going to take you to find Langzhong, can I carry you? ”

The young man looked at Lu Gu's clear eyes, his lips squirmed for a long time, but he couldn't make a sound, so he had to nod silently.

Lu Gu carefully avoided his wound and carried him on his back. The boy was not heavy, even too light, and the wind could blow him away, and his ribs were thin and bulging, and his back ached. The blood on his body stained Lu Gusu's white clothes red, and some of them flowed into her neck, sticking to her with sweat, and the young man could see it clearly, his already thin body curled up, struggling to go down.

Lu Gu comforted softly, "Be good, I'll be here in a while." Xie Qingyan dismounted and motioned for her to go up, and he walked to the front to take the reins of the horse.

Lu Gu was not polite, picked up the young man on the horse, and sat on it himself.

The three of them marched towards the city.

Gray clouds covered the sun and covered the city. The wind was furious, bitterly cold, and the branches and leaves of a few trees at the base of the wall rattled like the sound of cracking.
