Chapter 40: Identity Exposed
At midnight, the people in the courtyard were asleep. A massacre unwittingly unfolded.
A night watchman was about to go out to relieve himself, when he heard the movement in the courtyard, he hurriedly shouted to the sleeping inside, "Wake up, everyone, there is an enemy army attacking at night!"
In an instant, there was a commotion and shouting, and everyone got up. The people were armed with hoes and iron tools, and the rogue bandits were armed with knives and guns, and they were ready to meet the enemy with great momentum.
Unfortunately, the Qiming army came prepared, and the archers surrounded the courtyard, and a dense rain of arrows flew down from the roof. Some of the kung fu rogues were able to resist for a while, while the common people who could only dance around with hoes and farm tools were injured one after another because they couldn't dodge.
Jiuxi was about to use her light skills to go to the eaves to kill a crossbowman, change into their equipment and mix in to poison them, which was the fastest way she could think of to deal with the enemy army.
After spending a few days with these people in Jinguo, she actually regarded them as her own people and Qiming as an enemy army.
Originally, she could protect herself in this battle. After all, this is not the Tian Yuan Dynasty, and the people here are not the people of the Tian Yuan Dynasty.
However, in the past few days, these kind people have treated her very well. Talking to her kindly, seeing her age, being careful to care for her, and letting her eat all the delicious food first, was a warmth that she had never experienced in the palace.
She wanted to save them. She couldn't bear to see the people who greeted her with a smile yesterday and asked her if she wanted a piece of sweet potato, and they fell in front of her tonight. Not even able to get up again.
Thinking of this, Jiuxi turned his head to find a glance at Liu Shiyue's location, but he couldn't see anyone anywhere.
I was about to find a place where no one was paying attention and jumped on the eaves, but I saw more than a dozen people appear out of thin air, like ghosts, but they were harvesting life without mercy.
The people below who were swinging their swords against the rain of arrows saw that there were fewer and fewer arrows flying overhead, and they couldn't help but look up at the eaves. When the ghostly figures came and went in their sight, obliterating their enemies one by one, everyone's pupils couldn't help but dilate. There was a silent dead silence.
Someone reacted and shouted, "It's the Ghost Rider! It's the Ghost Rider led by the Prince Regent! They're here to save us!"
With the appearance of the Ghost Warrior, the situation of victory and defeat is gradually turning. In an instant, the rain of arrows was gone, and none of the archers on the eaves survived.
Seeing this, Jiuxi was about to go up to meet the ghost iron rider, and he also wanted to find out their whereabouts.
Just as she was about to perform light exercises, she suddenly felt a sinking in her hand, and when she turned her head, she saw that the person who had been unknown was now standing beside her and holding her wrist tightly.
In her puzzled gaze, he indifferently put his index finger to his lips and whistled, the ghost shadow iron rode twelve Xuanyi iron armor, with a silver face to cover his face, and after signaling to Liu Shiyue on the eaves, he jumped behind the eaves, and his figure disappeared into the night in an instant.
Jiuxi looked at him with burning eyes, how many secrets did this person hide? But after thinking about it, how many things had she told him, and how many things were superficial?
She remembered the conversation she had with him a few days ago when she came to the Kingdom of Qian, and remembered the Luo Bei Qi and the Ghost Shadow Warrior Rider he had told her. No wonder he knew so well, although she was suspicious at the time, she didn't think about it. At this time, he must have had doubts about her identity. I just don't know how much he has seen through her?
The people watching the battle below also gradually came back to their senses, and looked at Liu Shiyue with solemn expressions. They all knelt down and bowed their heads, "The people of the original Jinguo country meet the prince regent!"
Many years ago, it was precisely because of the regent and his twelve ghost shadow horsemen that he became famous, but the orthodox royal blood at that time was all submissive, timid and incompetent, relying on the regent to protect the peace, and on the other hand, he was dissatisfied that the regent was loved by the people of the world with military power.
That's why he secretly sent someone to kill the regent's bloodline, if it weren't for the regent and his wife, there would have been no one in the world at this time.
After this incident, the regent and his wife also felt cold for the royal family, so they bid farewell to the king and wanted to live in seclusion in the mountains. But he didn't want to be ambushed by the enemy on the road, and the princess regent was killed and died. The regent also suffered from the loss of his beloved and grief, and his body gradually weakened.
During his years in seclusion, enemies came to his door, and the regent gave up his military power, and although he was guarded by ghosts, he was dead. In order to avenge his beloved wife, he killed a lot of enemies who came to the door in the past few years. He also killed the group that killed the princess regent one by one, and sacrificed his dead wife with blood.
A few years later, the regent died of a recurrence of an old injury. Before his death, he entrusted the current adoptive father of Yu Liuyue, who was still his master. and ordered the ghost shadow to ride no longer in the world when the young master was fledgling. Until the prince himself went to find their whereabouts, and then obeyed the orders of the son, helped the son to save the people, and achieved a great cause.
Before he died, he asked Liu Qianchu to find a good family for his child. Let him no longer indulge in the pain of losing his parents, do not seek revenge on the royal family or others, and his children can grow up safely. This was his greatest wish, and it was also the last wish of his wife, Princess Regent, before her death.
When he returned to the light, he did not forget to hold Xiao'er's hand and earnestly entrust, and Liu Shiyue still remembers what his father said to him before he died. "Twilight, my son. Father can't wait for you to grow up. Because my father misses your mother so much. My father was afraid that she would be in a hurry, so he went to look for her first. Although my father and your mother have only been married for three or five years, we truly love each other, so even if we have only been married for a few years, we are already content. Remember, child, love must be maintained with heart and single-mindedness. If you come to see a girl in the future, you must pursue it bravely and wholeheartedly. Only if you give your heart to her can you reap the same love. Son, father blesses you, and hopes that my son will not be disturbed by illness, be happy and worry-free, and have someone who treats each other with all his heart, protects each other, and spends the rest of his life without regrets. ”
He memorized his father's words with his heart and kept them in his heart. No longer thinking about revenge, he only accompanies Master Liuqian, improves his strength, and plumps his wings. He knew that the master had followed his father's instructions and arranged a family affair for him. It wasn't until the moment he met her that he understood what his father's words meant.
"Everyone, get up, now that the Kingdom of Jin is gone, I am a bandit, and I am no longer the prince of the regent. It's good for everyone to treat me as normal. Liu Shiyue said.
Everyone still couldn't kneel.
Liu Shiyue sighed lightly and said, "In the future, I will lead the ghost shadow to reappear in the world, you don't have to be afraid in the future, Jun Qianyu swears here to protect the people of my Jinguo." ”
It is well known from all over the country that the regent loves his wife like his life, and his son is surnamed his mother and named Jun Qianjiao.
When the three words of Jun Qianyan sounded in his ears, Jiuxi's mind was blank, like fireworks exploding in his mind.
"Little doll, chasing a man so much in broad daylight, and not afraid of other people's jokes?"
"If you don't run, I won't chase me?"
"That's a shame. ”
"Even if we meet here, it's fate, can the son tell me about his reputation?"
"You can call me brother. ”
"Jun Qianyi. Remember?"
"Your mother, Jimo Wei, once made a marriage contract with my master for you and me. I just want to see what my fiancée looks like. ”
......
Jiu Xi looked at the person in front of him a little stunned, and the conversations he had when he met this person a few months ago came to mind one by one.
It turned out that he was actually the son of the regent of Jinguo?
Therefore, his master, who has an inextricable relationship with his mother or a bad fate, is the main villager in Qingshan Village now?
No wonder. No wonder thinking about it for so long, the news of her absence in the palace must have spread long ago, and the mother must have known about it for a long time, but there has been no news.
It turned out that the mother had long known that she was in the hands of Liu Qianqi.
Is it reassured that she must be safe and does not need to save her life here, or because she is guilty of this person back then, she directly handed over her daughter's life to him to dispose of and repay the love debt owed back then?
Under Jun Qianyan's appeasement, everyone cleaned up the corpses left on the eaves and went back to the room to rest.
Jun Qianyu still took Jiuxi's hand and took her back to his room.
The two sat down at the table, and Jiuxi was still a little stunned. There's so much going on tonight. The Prince Regent and the Ghost Shadow Rider, whom she had been looking for for a long time, were right in front of her. Her fiancé, who has already decided on her family before she is masked, is also in front of her. Her mother knew that she had fallen into the hands of Liuqian, but she did not move. It all happened so suddenly, she didn't know how to deal with it for a moment.
After all, no matter how mature she is psychologically and physically, she is actually only a ten-year-old child.
In the face of danger, she can still talk and laugh and deal with it freely, but once faced with emotional matters, her heart that has inherited her father's coldness and her mother's dedication can no longer bear it.
"Little doll, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask. ”
He called her a little doll as he had when they first met. When they met again this time, he called her little girl, which was different from before, and she didn't recognize him.
It's also, it's just a short meeting, and he's still masked. She had seen too many of these outfits in the cottage, and she had never associated him with the boy who teased him as her fiancé.
Jiuxi took off the human/skin/mask on his face, revealing a small face that had not yet grown with some baby fat. Three points are like the cold and noble father Zhongli Zuoxiang, and seven points follow the gorgeous and dazzling face of his mother Jimowei, with shallow dimples and pointed tiger teeth on his face, and his smile is vivid and vivid. But I don't know what kind of style it will look like when I grow up.
Jiuxi tilted his head and bowed to his chin, "It's your turn." Didn't you say that if we meet again, it will make me see my face?"
Jun Qian also took off the mask, and a face hidden under the mask gradually revealed in front of Jiuxi's eyes.
This guy is really good-looking, a little too much. Jiuxi has seen many good-looking men since she was born, like her father Zhongli, like her master Langyue, and even Qin Sang and Qi Luofan, all of whom are first-class and good-looking. Especially the master, with a pair of affectionate eyes, a beautiful face, hooking his lips and smiling, laughing so much that people's hearts are crisp.
And the person in front of her is a little difficult to distinguish between the winner and the master who has always been the most beautiful in her mind. The lips are red and the teeth are white, and the sword eyebrows are starry. A pair of red phoenix eyes, and a small tear mole under the eyes, which is very amorous.
It's not an exaggeration to look at it like a fascination, a heartbeat like a drum, and it seems to be seduced.
