Chapter 211: Long Howl Looks Up to the Sky, Long Song Should Cry
The book continues from the above, and the last book said that Xiao Ruolan, Chen Jingqing and Yu Wenxiu successfully entered the mansion of the right leading general under the pretext of defecting to their relatives, and were able to meet Wang Junkuo, in a side-knocking conversation, Wang Junkuo knew the identities of the three, and then handed over the note with Liu Xin's hiding place to Xiao Ruolan and others in the name of gifting.
After getting the note, Xiao Ruolan and the three hurriedly left the General's Mansion and returned to the inn, and after some deliberation, the three deciphered the true meaning of the poems on the note. Then I decided to go to the destination the next day to find out.
On the other hand, the people and horses arranged by Chu Mofeng earlier were hurrying towards the direction of Youzhou, in order to be able to smoothly connect with Xiao Ruolan and others, and not long after Wang Junkuo met with Xiao Ruolan and others, Li Ming, the governor of Youzhou who was sitting in the Governor's Mansion, also got the news, and then quickly sent people around the inn to monitor the movements of Xiao Ruolan and others.
On the second day, Xiao Ruolan and others came to the abandoned village in the south of the city, and successfully met Liu Xin in the secret passage of the thatched house. As everyone knows, Xiao Ruolan, who was on guard outside the secret passage at this time, met with Wang Da, who came to report the news, and saw that a big battle was about to be fought, but under Liu Xin's explanation, he turned the war into a jade silk.
After a farewell, Wang Da decided to send Liu Xin and others out of the village, who knew that when everyone was about to arrive at the entrance of the village, they were surrounded by a team of cavalry, in view of the fact that the other party was here to arrest him, Liu Xinwan refused Wang Da's kindness after the break, and decided to hand over the evidence he collected to Xiao Ruolan, and he was with Wang Da to cover the evacuation of the three people.
What Liu Xin didn't expect was that the three women in front of him were belligerent people, and after rejecting Liu Xin's suggestion, they rushed towards the enemy on the opposite side in a hurry.
Seeing that the other party did not retreat but advanced, the leader of the cavalry couldn't help but sneer and said: "Pass my order, except for the one named Liu Xin and Wang Da, the remaining three women, whichever of you catches it will be counted." ”
As the saying goes, the sow that has been a soldier for three years is a sable cicada, and when she saw the three graceful women opposite, the eyes of the cavalry flashed like a wolf and a tiger.
At this time, I heard one of the women shout: "I said impermanence, why are these people so bright in their eyes? Could it be that they have thought of something dirty again?"
I saw that the woman called Impermanence, with a wave of the spear in her hand, knocked off the horse of an oncoming cavalryman, and then said coldly: "A group of pickled goods that are not even as good as the disciples, what do you care about them? Quickly end the battle and we are ready to leave here." ”
The woman called the flower demon hooked the corners of her mouth under the mask, and a charming smile appeared, and then the whole person was tightly attached to the horse's back, and the two daggers in her hands flew up and down, and with the momentum of the horse rushing forward under her crotch, she kept leaving scars on the enemy's body. Immediately, he shouted loudly: "Shura, hurry up, don't delay it for too long." ”
On another horse, a woman wearing a ghost mask, with two knives in her hand, slammed in front of her, only to see a spark collapse out, and then whispered: "Got it, be careful not to let those two die." ”
And Liu Xin and Wang Da looked at the three women who entered the opponent's formation like chopping melons and vegetables, and couldn't help but grow their mouths, speechless in surprise, who would have thought that the three women who seemed to be delicate would be like killing gods once they put on masks.
I heard that there are a total of seven people on the other side of the flower, aside from the demon of the virtuous king Chu Mofeng, it is said that the leader is the princess of the Xianwang Mansion today, and her martial arts are also good, and the other two people in the rivers and lakes are called the demon queen and Liuli, and it is rumored that they were the first to follow the side of the virtuous king, and it is conceivable that the strength is absolutely strong.
At this time, an arrow suddenly appeared in the gap of the opponent's cavalry formation, and the direction of aiming was exactly where Liu Xin was, only to hear an extremely subtle 'boom' sound, and a sharp arrow flew towards Liu Xin quickly like a poisonous snake with a core. And Liu Xin's attention was focused on Xiao Ruolan at the moment, and he didn't realize that danger was coming.
Seeing the sharp arrow approaching, Wang Da stepped on the stirrup with both feet between the lightning and flint, and the whole person flew up and knocked Liu Xin aside, and when Liu Xin eased up, he saw an arrow trembling in Wang Da's chest, and blood kept flowing out of Wang Da's mouth, and Wang Da saw that Liu Xin was safe and sound, and couldn't help but smile.
Seeing this, Liu Xin climbed forward and hugged Wang Da and shouted: "Brother, how can you be so stupid? My old Liu's life is worthless, how can it be worth you to block this arrow for me?"
I saw Wang Da spit blood vigorously and said: "Lao Liu, you rammer, if we hadn't been rescued by King Xian, we would have been a pile of dry bones, and the purpose of living has been to help King Xian, and now the evidence you hold in your hand is the best help for His Royal Highness King Xian, if you die, who can explain all this, my Wang Da has lived until now, it is enough, I hate that I can no longer serve His Royal Highness King Xian, please leave it to you in the future, brother, live for me." ”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Da suddenly stood up, pulled out the arrow on his chest, and then picked up Liu Xin's Mo knife and shouted at Xiao Ruolan: "A few women, please escort Vice General Liu away quickly, I will block it here." ”
Seeing Wang Da rushing forward with a Mo knife in his hand, Xiao Ruolan frowned, and then shouted at Chen Jingqing and Yu Wenxiu: "Go, hurry up, don't let Brother Wang die in vain." ”
Hearing this, the other two girls quickly killed the enemy in front of them, and then turned their horses' heads and ran towards the rear, while Xiao Ruolan shouted to Liu Xin, who was confused: "Do you want his sacrifice to be meaningless? ”
Liu Xinyan nodded, then turned over and got on his horse, and followed Xiao Ruolan and the others towards the official road outside the village.
Looking at the people who were leaving quickly, Wang Da slashed his knife in his hand and shouted loudly to the cavalry in front of him: "Dogs, come up and die, remember grandpa's name, grandpa is called Wang Da." After speaking, he charged towards the cavalry in front, only to hear a 'boom' sound in the air, and an arrow broke through the air, which could penetrate Wang Da's throat, and then saw a cavalry rush forward, with a wave of a horizontal knife in his hand, and in an instant, a big head rose into the sky.
At this time, the cavalry saw clearly that the person who came was Li Ming's brother, Li Hui, known as the Youzhou marksman, Li Hui was not treated by the elders in the family since he was a child, and over time he developed a cruel and tyrannical character, and since Li Ying succeeded as the governor of Youzhou, he could make friends with Li Hui, and after a long time, Li Hui became Li Hui's number one henchman.
Many things that Li Hui did that were inconvenient for Li Hui to do, I saw Li Hui say coldly: "Most of the governors have orders, go all out to arrest fugitives, and kill them on the spot if they resist." ”
I saw that the cavalry captain before hesitated for a while and said: "General Qiqi Li, there are three people on the other side who are from the other side of the flower, and everyone in the world knows that the other side flower belongs to the one in the capital, if we kill them, I'm afraid it will not be easy to explain to that person, right?"
As soon as the words fell, he saw Li Hui sneer, and waved the horizontal knife in his hand in front of him, and then he noticed a trace of coolness coming from his throat, and then a cluster of blood arrows spurted out.
Looking at the cavalry captain who fell to the ground, Li Hui said coldly: "No matter who the other party is behind the scenes, they can't stop the execution of the order of the Grand Duke, all of them are there, and quickly pursue the fugitives." After speaking, he turned his horse's head and chased in the direction of Xiao Ruolan and the others' retreat.
And some of the cavalry behind him secretly cursed in their hearts: If it weren't for the fact that the capital was protecting you, what would you think you were? But thinking so in his heart, he still clamped the horse's belly and chased in the direction where Li Hui left.
Because Xiao Ruolan and the others took the first step, and Li Hui was delayed in the deserted village for a while, the distance between the two sides gradually widened a lot. In the process of galloping on the horse, Xiao Ruolan said angrily: "This time there must be something that accidentally leaked the news, otherwise why would the Youzhou army appear so quickly?"
Chen Jingqing on the side thought for a long time, and said with a surprised face: "The people we have seen this time are the innkeeper, Wang Junkuo, Wang Junkuo's wife, and then Wang Da and Liu Xin. ”
And Yu Wenxiu said coldly: "Do you remember that when we came out of the main hall of the Wang family, that Li family had been standing outside the house and didn't come in, who else could it be?"
After listening to the analysis of the two, Xiao Ruolan already knew that she must have been betrayed this time, and she couldn't help but be angry in her heart, and then said to Chen Jingqing and Yu Wenxiu: "Since we know that we have been sold, then we can only arrive in Jinzhou quickly, and maybe there is a glimmer of life, after all, it is the emperor's Longxing land, and the local guards will be the people of King Qin, and we can rest well when we get there." ”
Chen Jingqing and Yu Wenxiu nodded when they heard this, and saw Xiao Ruolan say to Liu Xin on the side: "I know that you are still immersed in grief, but since Brother Wang Da is dead, then let's not let his death be meaningless, follow us and strive to run to Jinzhou in one go." ”
Liu Xinyan nodded, then tightened his grip on the reins, and ran forward desperately with Xiao Ruolan and the others, while there were more and more Youzhou troops in regular clothes chasing after them. As everyone knows, at a distance of about half a day's distance from Li Hui's back, two fast horses are galloping forward, although the knight on the horse seems to be tired, but the eyes exposed under the cover are full of infinite worry.
At the same time, Li Hui's north and south were rushing in the direction of Li Hui, and everyone was desperately racing against time, but Xiao Ruolan, who was running, and Li Hui, who was pursuing, didn't know anything about all this.
Within five days, the two sides have fought several times since they came out of the Youzhou territory, and each time they were escaped by Xiao Ruolan and others, and most of the people behind Li Hui were also lost, as for Xiao Ruolan and others, there were dozens of large and small injuries on their bodies, if it weren't for Mo Ziyao who equipped them with various medicines before leaving, it is estimated that the three of them would have turned into corpses on the ground at this moment.
At dawn on this day, Xiao Ruolan, who had already woken up, hurriedly woke up everyone, there was still about half a day's journey from Jinzhou, as long as it passed through the narrow valley in front of him, it would be possible to reach Jinzhou smoothly, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, Xiao Ruolan hurriedly ordered everyone to set off quickly, and soon after everyone left, Li Hui also led people to rush here.
Looking at the fire that was still smoking on the ground, Li Hui raised his head and looked at the valley in front of him, and couldn't help sneering and said: "Everyone got off the horse and divided a team to find a way to go over the mountain and go around in front of them. Then a small group of cavalry quickly dismounted and walked towards the mountainside, while Li Hui led the rest of the men and horses, holding sharp blades and walking towards the valley.
The more they went forward, the more rugged the road became, and in desperation, Xiao Ruolan and the others had to lead their horses forward, looking at this rugged road, Xiao Ruolan couldn't help but say angrily: "Why did this road to Jinzhou become so difficult to walk?
I saw Chen Jingqing shake his head, tightened the strip of cloth on his left arm with his teeth, and then whispered: "Sister Ruolan, the Bird Mouse Valley is in Hexi County, this is probably the junction of Jinzhou and Fenzhou, in the north of Jinzhou, it is estimated that our west side should not be far from Fenshui." ”
After listening to Chen Jingqing's words, Xiao Ruolan nodded, then looked at the strange rocky scene around her, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "No matter where it is, let's hurry up, lest the group of people behind us catch up." ”
Everyone nodded their heads, and then trekked all the way, and finally after turning over a relatively steep mountain road, everyone finally came to a relatively open area, seeing that everyone was exhausted, Xiao Ruolan hurriedly ordered everyone to rest in place.
Everyone hurriedly sat on the ground, took out the water bladder and poured water into a big gulp, and at this moment, only to hear a burst of laughter from a distance, and then a group of soldiers appeared in front of Xiao Ruolan and others, Xiao Ruolan and others saw this and picked up their weapons and looked at the soldiers opposite coldly.
I saw a man at the head of the group said coldly: "Don't think about running away anymore, obediently hand over that Liu Xin, maybe for the sake of the face of the person behind you, I can consider letting you live, otherwise don't blame me for not giving him face." ”
After listening to the man's words, Xiao Ruolan reached out and stroked the hair of her sideburns, and then said aloud: "Since you know who is behind us, then are you really not afraid of the revenge that will come from him in the future? Even if you are not afraid, what about the soldiers behind you? Don't they have families? Think about the pain of the family being broken and the wife separated from the flesh and blood, and then think about the wail that you will let out because of helplessness and fear, aren't you afraid?" As soon as the words fell, I saw Xiao Ruolan turn the spear in her hand upside down, thrust it into the ground, and then said with a smile: "If you are not afraid, come up and fight with me." ”
The earth-shattering momentum suddenly made the man take a few steps back, and the soldiers behind him looked worried after listening to Xiao Ruolan's words, and the weapons in their hands seemed to be a little uncontrollable.
And when the man heard this, he also secretly thought in his heart that he was just a military general beside Li Ming, even though Li Ying valued himself, but if that person really sent down a monstrous anger, then in order to calm his anger, His Majesty the Emperor might desperately order Li Ying to hand him over, thinking that this man was a little embarrassed, if Liu Xin was allowed to run, Li Ying would definitely not be able to spare himself at that time.
At this time, in the Youzhou Governor's Mansion, Li Ying was sitting with Wang Junkuo in the main hall pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and Wang Junkuo's wife Li was present to accompany him, only to see Wang Junkuo holding a wine glass and saying to Li Ying with a smile: "Congratulations to the Governor, Congratulations to the Governor, the Governor will definitely be able to get rid of the big trouble this time." ”
"At this time, I still rely on General Wang's strong help to make it happen. I saw Li Ying smile and said to Wang Junkuo: "It is estimated that Wang Da would never have imagined that it was you, the general, who leaked his whereabouts." ”
But I saw Wang Junkuo holding Li Shi in one hand and said with a smile: "Actually, I have long suspected that he is plotting against me, and after many investigations, I learned that this person has received the favor of King Xian, so this official will plan and calculate, and he can also take this opportunity to cut off one of King Xian's arms, do he and that King Qin really think that they can fight against His Royal Highness the Prince? Orthodoxy is always orthodoxy, which cannot be erased." ”
Listening to Wang Junkuo's words, Li Ying couldn't help laughing, and then said sadly: "It just so happens that the governor of Pontus doesn't want to take that Li Hui anymore, if he brings Liu Xin back this time, then the governor of Pontus may see the past feelings and give him a way to live, if the mission fails, either he will die in the hands of that group of women, or he will die under the knife of the governor of Pontus." ”
At this time, Li Hui thought for a moment, as if he had made up some kind of determination, and then clenched the horizontal knife in his hand and said to Xiao Ruolan: "What is the virtuous king of King Qin, let them all die, as for you to stay in this valley today." After speaking, he waved his hand to the soldiers behind him and said: "The fugitive resists stubbornly and is allowed to be killed on the spot, and all the consequences will be borne in the future." ”
Hearing that there was no responsibility for killing someone, a group of soldiers clenched their weapons one after another, and rushed towards Xiao Ruolan and the others with a cruel smile.
Seeing this, Xiao Ruolan looked coldly at the oncoming soldiers through her mask, and shouted to Chen Jingqing and the others in a low voice: "Take advantage of the chaos to take Liu Xin and leave quickly, I will block them here, remember, completing Brother Chu's task is the most important thing." ”
Gritting his teeth and waving his injured left arm, Chen Jingqing did not agree to Xiao Ruolan's request, but just looked coldly ahead.
At this time, a soldier had already rushed forward, Xiao Ruolan saw this, raised her foot and kicked the spear stuck in the ground forward, then grabbed the tail of the spear and twisted her wrist, and stabbed at a soldier in front of her. Seeing this, the soldier hurriedly clenched his horizontal knife to resist, but before the defense was in place, the spear had already pierced his chest.
Then he saw that Xiao Ruolan didn't look back, and pulled the spear hard, stabbing it towards the next person again. On the other side, Yu Wenxiu never said a word, and the two crutches in his hands flew up and down in the crowd, splashing a little blood with each blow.
Chen Jingqing, on the other hand, took advantage of the dagger's close-quarters short fight, constantly wandering around the opponent, never stopping after a single blow, and then rushed towards the next person.
The two sides kept sticking together, and as the number of Youzhou troops continued to decrease, the injuries on Xiao Ruolan's three bodies gradually increased. I saw that after Xiao Ruolan picked off the blade of an enemy with one shot, she did not step forward to attack again, but stood in place panting heavily, a wound on her waist was still bleeding at the moment, Chen Jingqing and Yu Wenxiu on the side walked to Xiao Ruolan's side and bandaged her briefly, and then saw Chen Jingqing smile and said: "Sister Ruolan, it is estimated that we have to fold here today, hey, after fighting around for so many years, I suddenly found that I was really tired." ”
I saw Yu Wenxiu take off his mask and say to Liu Xin not far away: "Run back for a while, don't care what happens here, when you arrive in Jinyang, someone will naturally pick you up, don't forget to live well for your brother." ”
At this time, Li Hui suddenly flipped over in his hand, and a longbow suddenly appeared, and then quickly opened his bow and shot at Xiao Ruolan, at this time Xiao Ruolan was about to turn around and explain something to Liu Xin, and she was not aware of the danger from the front, only heard the sound of a sharp blade entering the flesh behind her, Xiao Ruolan turned her head and saw Chen Jingqing suddenly blocking in front of her, and the arrow was as pierced as the heart, and an arrow came out from behind.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ruolan immediately raised her head to the sky and shouted, and then glared at Li Hui viciously and said, "Even if the mission fails today, I will definitely kill you and avenge Qianqing." ”
I saw Li Hui sneering and said: "Didn't you say that you other side flowers are very powerful? In this way, it is really vulnerable, it is better to let me kill you one by one, and from now on the other side flowers can be removed from the rivers and lakes." In addition, doesn't the man behind you still have two Tiance armies? I think it's also a showmanship in vain. He burst out laughing.
As soon as the voice fell, I only heard a cold voice behind me say: "If you want to remove the name of the other side flower, have you asked us?" And a large number of black-armored soldiers suddenly appeared on both sides of the valley, only to see that the same extinguishing flag was erected on both sides, and the first one pointed at Li Hui with a Mo knife and said: "You kid is so big, just the 30,000 Youzhou troops in your Youzhou City are not enough for us to play for half an hour, do you want to try?"
At this time, Li Hui turned his head tremblingly, and saw two masked women standing not far behind him, one of them was holding a big knife that was extremely inconsistent with his body, while the other was holding a long sword in his hand, seeing this scene, Xiao Ruolan couldn't help but shout: "Feiyan, Zhen'er, why are you here?"
I saw Gu Zhen'er walking towards Xiao Ruolan, seemingly unconcerned about the existence of so many soldiers present, and said loudly: "It's not that flowery carrot, knowing that you may be in danger on this trip, I deliberately delayed your departure time, so that my cousin and I can quickly come from Zhangye." ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard Yu Wenxiu shouting: "Ruolan, Feiyan, Zhen'er, come quickly, I'm afraid it won't work." When the women heard this, they were shocked, and they all stepped forward, only to see Chen Jingqing holding Yu Wenxiu's hand, blood kept flowing out of his mouth, and the wound on his chest was just sprinkled with hemostatic scattering and was instantly washed away by the blood that flowed out, only to hear Chen Jingqing smile and say: "A few sisters don't need to apply medicine anymore, I know what the situation is, fortunately, everyone came, this mission is completed, go back for me and tell Brother Chu that Qingqing did not disgrace him this time." ”
I saw Xiao Ruolan crying suddenly, and kept saying: "Silly girl, what are you doing to block this arrow for me? It doesn't hurt to let it hit me, even if I die, I can't let you die, didn't we just say that after the world is peaceful, we will put on a wedding dress and marry him together? How can you be willing to leave us?"
Liu Feiyan and others on the side had already taken off their masks and cried pear blossoms with rain, only to see Chen Jingqing shook his head and said: "Sister Feiyan, Qin Jing was rescued by you back then, from a blind girl who had no power to restrain chickens, to a flower demon who is now famous in the rivers and lakes, all of this is given by you, Qin Jing has not thanked you well, today I was able to save Sister Ruolan, Qin Jing does not regret it, but I will never see him again in the future." ”
I saw Liu Feiyan holding Chen Jingqing's hand, shaking his head desperately and saying, "Silly girl, don't say anything sad, let's go to Jinzhou, there is Ziyao's medical branch there, and it will definitely cure you, you hold on." After speaking, he motioned to Yu Wenxiu to pick up Chen Jingqing.
I only heard Chen Jingqing whisper: "A handful of thin noodles, half a bowl of broth, a glass of water, five coins of lard, a spoonful of Qiaotou old Chen's soy sauce, and then two crisp and crisp cabbage, the noodles are fragrant, born at the wrong time, the tide rises and falls, and the flowers bloom strangely." As soon as the words fell, his hand suddenly drooped down, and the dagger that was originally held in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Looking at Chen Jingqing, who was already silent in his arms, Yu Wenxiu seemed to be unable to bear this grief any longer, and then raised his head and shouted: "Brother Zhao Xin can shoot all the enemies and avenge Qinqing." ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard a deep voice from both sides of the valley saying: "Tiance Army, shoot indiscriminately." I saw a dense rain of arrows rushing towards the direction where Li Hui was, drowning the figures of Li Hui and the others in an instant.
Then Liu Feiyan picked up Chen Jingqing's dagger, and everyone slowly left the valley and walked in the direction of Jinzhou.
In the early morning of the second day, at the beginning of the year, the door of the Xian Wang's Mansion was knocked like thunder, and after the doorman opened the door, he saw Liu Feiyan and others slowly walking in, and Chu Mofeng, who learned the news, quickly came to the courtyard.
Seeing everyone coming back with a lonely face, Chu Mofeng felt a sigh in his heart, and immediately knew that something was wrong, and then his eyes kept looking in the crowd, but he never saw the figure of the quiet woman, and then asked: "Feiyan, where is Qinqing?"
I saw Liu Feiyan say coldly: "Qin Qin died for the great cause of you and King Qin, are you satisfied now?"
Hearing that Chen Jingqing was dead, Chu Mofeng took several steps backwards one after another, and then sat on the ground without saying a word, and at this time, Gu Zhen'er slowly stepped forward and said coldly: "This matter was done by Li Ming, the governor of Youzhou, you can do it yourself, if you don't avenge Qinqing, then after we bury Qinqing, we will personally kill Youzhou and ask for Li Ming's life." ”
After listening to Gu Zhen'er's words, Chu Mofeng wiped a handful of tears and asked: "What about Qinqing's body? First bury her and let her be buried in the ground, and then you don't need to take action for this revenge, I will personally seek justice for her." ”
Chen Jingqing's funeral was arranged on February 15, and the body was buried in the Valhalla, but the tablet was made by Chu Mofeng himself and placed in the ancestral hall of the Gao family. Next to the altar sat quietly her dagger and mask.
Then Chu Mofeng personally wrote a letter, ordering the post station to be sent to the hands of Li Ming, the governor of Youzhou, after learning that Li Hui and others had missed, Li Ming also knew the cause and effect of the matter, and at this time looking at Chu Mofeng's handwriting, he couldn't help but unfold the letter with a little trembling, only to see that it was written with a big red pen: You owe me a life, I will come to pick it up in person. The inscription was not signed with Chu Mofeng's font number, but with two vigorous and powerful characters: Yaksha......
As the saying goes, catch thieves and catch stolen goods, catch people and take doubles, and look at Li Shimin's clever words and good arguments in Chang'an City, and then look at Chu Mofeng's anger in Youzhou City, I want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition......
