20 Shen Nu
This figure was not tall, but from a distance, very thin, far less robust than the pawns of the country peddlers, but it was this thin body that rushed out of the endless darkness and stood under the sharp blade.
And its owner is Zhao Shichen, who was still weak and depressed in the Liuwu Pavilion.
Wujiang was a little puzzled, Zhao Shichen obviously had no martial arts, just an ordinary weak scholar, but the speed that rushed out of the dark night just now was indeed beyond the reach of many people who practiced martial arts, so fast that even she almost didn't see it clearly, and what was even more unbelievable was that he rushed into the interlocking array of seven people in such an orderly manner, you must know that some formations are difficult to break even by masters, and there is no way to start.
"Does he know martial arts? Just hid your martial arts before? "Some of them can't trust their own judgment.
Xiliu plucked a leaf that blocked his vision in front of him and clipped it to his fingertips: "He doesn't know martial arts." ”
"So what?"
"This is probably what the world calls love." He looked ahead, unable to see clearly, "The potential that is stimulated by love is beyond the limit speed of life." ”
Wujiang was silent and asked, "Does this kind of thing happen often?" ”
Xiliu couldn't laugh or cry a little, turned his head to look at her, and under the cold moonlight, a pair of eyes were dark and shining, with puzzlement and curiosity, and looked serious. At this moment, he suddenly felt that she had lost the unreasonable vigilance and indifference to the outside world, like a little withdrawn child, full of curiosity and longing for the world, stretching out her little paws to look out, as if she had found something contrary to her own cognition, trying to get a definite response.
He shook his head slightly, and his voice couldn't help but be gentle: "This is very rare, I just heard the master say a paragraph when I was a child, a mother who has been sick for many years and can't get out of bed when she sees her child under the horse's hooves and is about to be trampled, miraculously gets up from the bed, rushes to the child's side with unimaginable speed, holds the horse's hooves with bare hands and saves the child, at that time people who saw this scene thought that the mother was sick at this time, but in fact, the mother never stood up again since then, and died soon after." ”
"A mother's love for her child." Whispering without borders.
"Well, a mother's natural love for her child." Westliu seems to have fallen into some kind of memory, "Not only people, but animals too." When I was a child, I lived in the mountains, where there were a lot of animals, and once it rained heavily, an old tree broke off and fell down just to hit a leopard's nest. The mother leopard had just given birth to five leopard cubs, and her body was very weak, but she used her body to support the fallen tree until we found it. When we fished the baby leopard out from under his belly, it could not support it and fell, and when we checked the body of the female leopard, we realized that the tree had already smashed every inch of the bone in her back when it fell, and it was common sense that it was impossible for her to carry the fallen giant tree until we arrived. ”
Wujiang listened quietly, nodded at the end, didn't say anything, just continued to look at the scene in front of him in silence.
The originally fierce fight stalled because of the appearance of Zhao Shichen, the two sides were deadlocked, and the scene quieted down.
Zhao Shichen stood in front of Xia Yunluo, holding the attacking sword body with both hands, blood flowed along his wrist and the tip of the sword into the sleeves and dirt, and he tried to support his body to prevent himself from falling: "You promised me that you wouldn't touch her!" His voice was hoarse from exertion, with unquenchable anger.
"You broke your word first." The man in black who took the lead replied, his voice cold.
"I just let her go."
"There's no need." The man in black snorted coldly, and the tip of the sword was sent forward another inch, reaching Zhao Shichen's shoulder.
More blood remained, staining Xia Yunluo's entire skirt red. When Zhao Shichen rushed in front of her to block the sword for her, there was a blank in her mind for a moment, and she couldn't think about it at all. The farewell letter of the year is vivid, and every word is heart-wrenching, and she has lived for three years to live with hatred. But why did this negative man and Bo Xingren, who had made her hate for three years, appear at this moment, block the sword for her, and give up his life.
Let her ...... Let her relent, and something beneath the ashes began to resurge......
"Zhao Shichen, I'll give you one last chance to explain to me." She almost gritted her teeth before she said this.
"Yun'er, I'm ......" When he faced the girl behind him, it seemed that all the confidence and hardness had been withdrawn.
Faced with his appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, the anger that had accumulated for many years suddenly surged into Xia Yunluo's heart: "Zhao Shichen, can you be like a man, what can't you say!" ”
I'm not an unreasonable person, I know the impermanence of love and hate, if you had made it clear to me face to face, maybe I would have been miserable and sad for a while, but I wouldn't be so aggrieved, so unwilling, so ...... Hate you......
She was still silent.
She raised her eyes, her gaze fell on his crumbling but barely supported back, blood stained a large area, the corners of her mouth raised, and suddenly smiled: "Do you think, now that I can't bear it?" ”
As the words fell, a bare hand crossed his back shoulder and grasped the tip of the sword.
At that moment, Zhao Shichen's back trembled uncontrollably, he had always thought that the choice he made was for her good, he had been worried that everything would be irreparable after telling the truth, and he had been retreating and evading, but in the end it was a big mistake.
His Yunluo turned out to be much more persistent and stronger than he imagined, and she was so good. She was behind him, and she held a sword with him, blood flowing. Suddenly, he was relieved, not afraid, before and after death, Biluo Huangquan, it's a big deal to go together.
He looked up at the person in front of him, his gaze resolute and determined: "Kill me, I won't go back." ”
"You really don't think I'm going to kill you!" There was anger evident in the black-clad man's voice.
"Zhao Shichen doesn't dare to be arrogant, he has always been a cheap life, he will achieve nothing in this life, it will only affect others, he has been wrong for three years, and he can't be wrong again."
"And what about her, you never thought about her?" At the mention of her, the man in black felt weak for a moment.
Zhao Shichen took a deep breath: "Zhao only loves Xia Yunluo alone in this life, it was in the past, it is now, and it will be in the future, no matter what, you have to bear her, if it is really for her, you should not force me to marry her from the beginning!" ”
As soon as Zhao Shichen's words came out, almost everyone present was shocked.
The wall of Xia Yunluo's heart built in the past three years collapsed, and the hard and heavy scabs on his heart were peeling off layer by layer. He said that he loved her, and he only loved her in this life, and he did it in the past, and he will do it in the future, and she finally realized that she had a sentence that was half wrong in the past, it turned out that someone did put a knife on his neck and forced him to become an official and marry a beautiful woman, but the knife was her neck, not his.
"It turns out that this person is Captain Shen." Xiliu said softly, "It is said that Mrs. Shen loves his daughter deeply, and it turns out that it is true, and he does not hesitate to beat the mandarin duck and affect his reputation in his life." ”
"A lifetime of good reputation." Wujiang bit down and said these four words, although there was no committal on his lips, but Xiliu saw the faint disdain in her eyes.
"I'll give you one last chance." Taiwei Shen pressed the sword down, causing Zhao Shichen's whole person to sink down.
Zhao Shichen spat out a mouthful of blood with a "poof", he didn't seem to feel the pain at all, and the corners of his mouth were filled with a smile: "No need." His gaze fell to the corner of his skirt, which was red with blood again, and he said with pity: "It's a little dirty again." ”
Facing Zhao Shichen's attitude, Shen Taiwei was furious: "Okay, this is what you asked for." ”
Everyone instantly felt the murderous aura rising around them, Yan Shisanniang's double knife backsweep, and was about to attack back, the blade in Xiliu's hand was about to get rid of his hand, and suddenly heard a voice from the bamboo forest in the dark: "Don't kill him!" ”
These words made Taiwei Shen's hands tremble, and the knife was stuck in the air.
The scene stands still again. I saw a woman in yellow stumbling in the dark, her hair was slightly messy because of running, and she shouted as she ran: "Daddy, don't kill him, don't kill him." She was accompanied by two nimble men in brocade robes, who came close to each other, knelt on one knee, bowed their heads and posed as if they were being punished.
"Don't blame them, I forced them to bring me here." The woman in yellow was panting, almost out of breath, but her voice was still crisp and pleasant, with a childish atmosphere.
Hearing this title, everyone guessed that this person was Shen Wei's only daughter, Shen Ziyan.
I saw her running to Shen Wei's side, and said anxiously: "Daddy, what are you doing, hurry up and put down the knife!" Seeing his hesitation, Shen Ziyan suddenly jumped up and pinched Shen Wei's ears, "Can you let it go, can you let it go?" ”
Suddenly seeing this scene, except for the black-clothed guards and Zhao Shichen, the rest of the people were stunned, and the dignified Shen Taiwei was pinched by a little girl.
Shen Wei sighed and withdrew the knife.
Shen Ziyan snatched the knife and handed it to the brocade-clothed guard behind him: "Don't give him the knife without my orders." The brocade-clothed guard's face turned pale for a few moments, and he trembled and reached out to lead the knife.
Shen Ziyan breathed a sigh of relief after handing over the knife, but her body seemed to be a little heavier, she slowly turned around and walked in front of Zhao Shichen, but her gaze crossed Zhao Shichen and fell on Xia Yunluo's body.
Xia Yunluo also looked back at her, and the two looked at each other across Zhao Shichen and the moonlight.
Xia Yunluo thought that Shen Ziyan definitely didn't know that in the past three years, in addition to imagining the scene of meeting Zhao Shichen again, what she imagined the most was what kind of person this woman who was by Zhao Shichen's side day and night. How beautiful, how gentle, how knowledgeable, how to smile and be gentle and elegant made Zhao Shichen stretch his eyebrows and laugh loudly, she can visit the Li Mansion at night, and she can also visit the Shen Mansion at night, but she has not been there, she does not dare, she is afraid of bumping into their harmony and deep affection.
Now that she finally saw her, it was not as beautiful as she imagined, but her eyes couldn't help but be attracted to her, not the external dress or makeup, but the kind of youth that couldn't hide from her eyes, and the innocence that had been well protected and cherished since childhood, overflowing her beautiful face, shining in the moonlight, not to mention men, even women were difficult to parry.
"It's so pretty." But Shen Ziyan, who was unbearable on the other side, suddenly opened his mouth and sighed, "Yunluo girl, you are even better looking than in the painting." ”
