Volume 1 The Bright Moon Chapter 48 I hope you can be merciful
Running all the way non-stop, the war horse finally couldn't bear it, and the group had to dismount to rest.
The monk who claimed to be Master Wusheng took the forage he had purchased from his bag, and he knew that after the battle, it was time to hold him accountable, so he hurried to feed the four horses that were obviously exhausted.
Xu Chang'an's two horses are even better, the Zhennan Army is the most elite army of the Dachang Dynasty, whether it is the selection of soldiers or the material allocation, it is the most sophisticated, even if you want to find two inferior horses in the Zhennan Army, you can only find those retired old horses.
The two red horses in the back just fell into the snow and rolled their eyes.
Lin Ying stood in the snow, not caring about eating first, but carefully inspected the surrounding environment, and wiped the blood stains on his face at will after confirming that he had already left the border of Qi State, but he did not relax his vigilance, because there were quite a lot of doubts in the battle just now.
She always felt that the road ahead was more dangerous, because her alertness had not disappeared, but had become more and more obvious.
Xu Changan dismounted and walked to Yang Hejiu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, with the package on his back, and said softly, "I'm sorry." ”
Yang Hejiu opened his eyes, smiled and said, "It's okay." ”
Xu Changan nodded, didn't say much so as not to disturb his rest, holding his black sword and not knowing what to do, squatting on the ground and grabbing the snow and rubbing it against his face and hands.
The man and the woman took off their saddles and sat on the ground to rest, Lin Ying came straight to the two with a gun, and said unceremoniously: "Why do you want to provoke that army?"
If it weren't for that arrow, Lin Ying was sure that he would have driven away before the cavalry in the distance could react, but that arrow came too fast.
But these words made the two people feel so strange. When the man named Jiang Xiaobai heard this, he immediately stood up from the snow, and returned with a long knife in his hand and a cold voice: "I'm saving you, besides, you didn't want to make a move just now?
"I'm here to knock out the gun in front of me, and then rush out again, and I still need you to save me?" Lin Ying said with extreme contempt.
The two of them were tense, no one was convinced, and they were about to do it.
"Xiaobai. The woman Jiang Ming opened her eyes and said softly.
"Yes, sister. Hearing this, the anger in the man's eyes was instantly extinguished, and there was no longer the fiery appearance of the previous moment.
The woman then stood up and smiled and said, "Girl, the two of us are also kind, and I hope that the girl will not care." ”
Of course Lin Ying knew that this matter was not so simple, who would put himself surrounded by those cavalry in order to save someone who had never even seen or heard of it?
Then the only answer is that they can't leave the country, but they have to leave the country.
Lin Ying had already understood this question, and instead asked, "Are you an undercover agent of the Chu Army?"
The woman shook her head, "The two of us came from Zhao Kingdom and went to the West to participate in the entrance test. ”
"Since it's not an undercover agent of the Chu Army, you only need to show the paperwork to pass, so why do you have to fight all the way out like this?" Lin Ying then asked.
The man stood up again, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "If you are not undercover agents of the Chu army, why can't you pass?"
This rhetorical question can be described as extremely clever.
Although Lin Ying was unwilling to be convinced, he was too lazy to pay attention to the two of them, thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the arrow was really here to save himself.
However, she still felt that the people she had met along the way were full of problems, especially the monk!
Then he walked up to the monk who was feeding the horses and said coldly: "Monk!"
Master Wusheng was feeding the horses, and was startled when he heard the voice behind him, and he knew the terrible thing about this girl during the journey of the three of them, so he hurriedly smiled and returned: "Yes, the poor monk is here." ”
"You said before that you would go into the building to try to help us deal with the kid with the sword, and he agreed to let you accompany him, could it be that you really came to eat, drink, and rub the horse?" Lin Ying clenched the silver spear, and the spear pointed directly at Master Wusheng and said coldly.
From the Jing Dynasty to Wangshu Tower, with the strength of this monk's feet, let alone to participate in the entrance test, I am afraid that I will starve to death halfway through, after this fight, why the monk's purpose is also obvious, it is not difficult to understand.
The monk's smile froze, and he hurriedly waved his hands and said, "How can a monk be said to be eating and drinking?"
"Then why didn't you just make a move?"
"Be merciful, be merciful, and never kill lightly. ”
Lin Ying said with contempt: "Why don't you say compassion when you eat?"
What makes Xu Changan and the three of them a little strange is that this monk eats and drinks with the three of them, the three of them eat meat, he eats meat, and the three of them eat fish, and he follows him. Now you tell me that compassion is cherished, and the devil believes it!
"This, the donor doesn't know, there is a saying in the Nirvana Sutra that monks eat nine pure meat, not for breaking the precepts. The monk whispered the Buddha's name, his eyes slightly closed, and said.
Lin Ying naturally didn't understand the Nirvana Sutra, the Nine Pure Meat, just rummaged through the words in his stomach, and only said coldly after a long time: "I have never seen such a shameless person as you." You are now in a duel with me, and if you can win, I will admit that you are not lying!" Then he remembered that he actually said an idiom in his words just now, and nodded slightly, with a smug look in his eyes.
The monk was slightly stunned, and was even more shocked when he heard this, seeing that the girl looked unwilling to give up, he also knew that the lie was not over, so he had to confess and return: "That, donor, Buddhism practice is about enlightenment, and the poor monk has not been enlightened for the time being, so he is not the opponent of the donor." ”
"In other words, are you lying?" Lin Ying didn't care whether he was enlightened or not, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned sideways.
"No, no, maybe you can be enlightened by entering the building to try to go to the poor monk, and then it's not too late to help the donor deal with the kid with the sword, so it's not a lie. The monk squeezed out a smile and returned.
Lin Ying snorted coldly, "I'm not afraid of the one with the sword, it's that kid who has to agree to your help." ”
The monk then cast a distress glance at Xu Changan.
It's good that he doesn't look at Xu Changan, but Lin Ying is even more angry when he sees it, he can't tell who is in charge, right?
"You don't have to look at him, he doesn't count. If you don't want to die under my gun, get out of here!"
The monk looked around the surrounding environment, and there was a snowstorm as far as the eye could see, and he couldn't even find every house.
Naturally, he refused to roll, his brain turned quickly, and then he looked down at the forage he was holding in his hand, and then smiled: "That, I help you feed the horses, and it is not considered to be for nothing." Hey, hey, hey. ”
Lin Ying was helpless, maybe he didn't think much of his mouth, and Yang Hejiu didn't have any dissatisfaction along the way, it was indeed a little inappropriate for him to drive people away like this, at least he had to listen to Yang Hejiu's thoughts.
There is a kind of natural command behind the gate, Lin Ying completely acts as the eldest sister, and after the accountability is completed one by one, it is naturally Xu Chang'an's turn.
looked at the young man Lin Yingxiu who was squatting in the snow, and his eyebrows were cold, but when he walked to his side, his heart was soft.
She could naturally see the fear in Xu Changan's eyes, and she also knew that he had never killed anyone, and she couldn't say any words of blame, how could such a big child be willing to blame? Even Lin Ying, who knew that military law was strict, could not speak.
just said in a cold voice, "You should reflect on yourself!"
Xu Changan raised his head and looked at the departing back, feeling a little uncomfortable.
In the eyes of others, if Lin Ying hadn't sat in front of him, he might have died.
But Xu Chang'an knew that he would not die, because Yang Hejiu was not far behind him, and from the time Sifang City got out of the crisis, he always believed that as long as Yang Hejiu was there, he would never die.
It's just that the man has paid too much for himself, and he has paid for no reason, and he knows it very well in his heart.
In the capital, Yang Hejiu is the gentleman of the Spirit Academy, a student of the dean, and no one dares to hurt his existence. But now that the two serious injuries are because of Xu Changan, Yang Hejiu's not saying it doesn't mean that he doesn't know.
Looking at his own black sword in the snow, he lowered his head and said to himself, "It turns out that kindness will pay a price." ”
Picked up the black sword again, wiped off the snow on it, gasped and said, "I'm going to kill, I can't be merciful, I can't..."
I don't know when Yang Hejiu has come behind him, squatted down and said softly: "Kindness will pay a price, but I still hope you can be merciful." ”
After a slight pause, he said, "At least, be kind to yourself." ”
Xu Changan turned his head suddenly, saw the perfect face that was pale but still squeezed out a smile, and then looked at the eyes that were gentle without a trace of reproach, and could no longer suppress those fears, lying on the ground and tears began to slide down from his eyes.
Yang Hejiu smiled lightly, and did not say anything to comfort him, but just squatted in place and quietly looked at the young man in front of him who was in tears, especially thinking of himself when he was young.
He knew that what he needed at that time was not comfort, nor was there someone who could help him wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, all he needed was someone to be by his side.
Fear spreads, but it can also be shared, and many people are no longer so afraid.
He was very glad, glad that his teacher was squatting beside him at that time, and he was honored, honored that he could now squat in front of this young man like a teacher.
The snow doesn't stop, the tears don't stop, and the crying is so unpleasant.
From that arrow, when the two soldiers fell to the ground in front of him, Xu Changan had been suppressed for a long time, and he didn't dare to cry out of self-blame, but now he saw that there was no blame in the eyes of the man in black, and some were just gentle.
How can I be depressed anymore?
After a long time, Xu Changan wiped away his tears, burst into laughter, looked at Yang Hejiu and said, "Thank you." ”
Yang Hejiu shook his head slightly, signaling that he didn't need to thank him.
It's getting late, and although the white snow is not suitable for camping, the group must rest in place.
Lin Ying always felt that the next road might be more dangerous, so after discussion, he finally decided to take a detour and try to avoid entering the territory of Chu State, but he had to catch up a lot in time.
