Volume 2 Sword Qi Chapter 20 Poor quicksand riverside boundless bones

"Princess, what are your plans next, do you need us to escort you back to the capital of Ningguo?" Yang Xiaotian asked.

Princess Danyang shook her head and said, "I don't want to go back to the capital!"

"Has the princess thought about where she is going?"

Princess Danyang's eyes were red and her eyes were full of tears, and she choked up and said: "My father has always loved me since I was a child, and among all the sisters, my father loves me the most, I don't know why my father chose me to marry Nanzhao this time." I've always lived in the palace, and this is the first time I've been out there, and I don't know where to go!"

Yang Xiaotian had a headache, rubbed his eyebrows, and thought about how to arrange Princess Danyang, so that she could follow her to the rivers and lakes? It's just that Yiyi's reaction just now has also been seen, if she is too close to Princess Danyang, I'm afraid she will be unhappy.

Liu Feiyi suddenly said: "Otherwise, you can follow us, and wait until you think about where you are going, and then make another plan." ”

Princess Danyang laughed when she heard this, and said, "Okay, thank you, sister." In fact, she also wanted to follow Yang Xiaotian in her heart, but she was afraid that Concubine Liu would not agree, so she didn't dare to speak.

Yang Xiaotian saw that Concubine Liu took the initiative to let Princess Danyang stay, and he was also very happy about her reasonableness, and nodded at her with a smile.

The young man said: "Princess, we have been chatting for so long, and we haven't introduced ourselves to you yet, my name is Yang Xiaotian, and she is Liu Feiyi." ”

Princess Danyang said: "Brother Yang, Sister Liu, Danyang thanks the two for their rescue!"

Yang Xiaotian nodded slightly and said, "Princess, I have a reluctant request, I don't know if the princess can agree?"

Princess Danyang said: "What's the matter? Brother Yang, you say it!"

"I want to marry the princess as a brother and sister, I don't know what the princess wants?" The young man's move was actually to reduce Concubine Liu's doubts, and the three of them walked all the way, inevitably having some intimate behavior, and setting the status of brother and sister with Princess Danyang, Yiyi would not be unhappy.

Princess Danyang said happily: "Danyang can't ask for it. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, bowed their heads, and became brother and sister to each other.

"Big brother!"

"Sister!"

Concubine Liu looked at the two people who called each other, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Brother Yang for accepting a princess sister who is beautiful and fragrant." ”

Yang Xiaotian smiled slightly and didn't speak, and said secretly in his heart: As long as you don't mind.

The young man looked at Princess Danyang with a smile on her face and asked, "Sister, the army of Nanzhao has set up an ambush to intercept and kill the pro-team, and things are a little strange, have you ever thought about understanding the reason?"

Princess Danyang thought for a while and said, "I don't mind myself, anyway, I'm not very happy about this kiss." However, there are several of my maids in the team, they have served me since childhood, and they are like sisters to me, at this time, they must have already died at the hands of the enemy, and there are other people who have also died innocently, so it is reasonable for me to seek justice for them, so I plan to find out the ins and outs of this matter, I wonder if the eldest brother and sister Liu are willing to help me?"

Yang Xiaotian nodded and said, "Of course!"

Liu Feiyi also nodded and agreed to help.

Princess Danyang applauded and smiled: "Great, with the help of the eldest brother and Sister Liu, I believe that this matter will be cleared up, and Danyang has thanked the two of you here first." ”

Yang Xiaotian said: "If we want to investigate this matter thoroughly, we must first go back to the location of the incident." ”

Concubine Liu and Princess Danyang felt that what he said made sense, so the three of them withdrew the same way.

Yang Xiaotian pulled Princess Danyang to unfold her body and march quickly, Concubine Liu followed behind, and after a while, the three of them returned to the place of the incident. I saw corpses all over the place, lying there in all directions.

Princess Danyang ran to the corpses of several maids, shaking the corpses and crying loudly, her voice was miserable.

Yang Xiaotian felt sorry in his heart, helped Princess Danyang, and comforted: "Sister, people can't be resurrected after death, you have to take care of your body, the most important thing for us now is to find out the truth of the matter and seek justice for them, you can't fall down first." ”

The young man glanced at Concubine Liu, and Concubine Liu hurriedly came over and hugged Princess Danyang.

Yang Xiaotian looked at the corpses all over the ground, one by one, trying to see if there were any alive left, but unfortunately the person who attacked was too ferocious, or the knife or gun was deadly, and he couldn't find half of the people who were still alive.

The boy shook his head and sighed, it seemed that it was not easy to find clues from here.

"Princess!"

Suddenly, in the woods on the right side of the quicksand river, two people dressed as soldiers of the Ning Kingdom ran out, shouting loudly as they ran.

The two ran to the front of Princess Danyang, bowed down and kowtowed: "The princess is still alive, God is pitiful." ”

Princess Danyang looked at the two of them, but her face was full of doubts: "Who are you, why have I never seen you?"

The older soldier said: "Princess, we are the soldiers in charge of escorting the team this time, and we have been assigned to the rear team, and we have a low status, and we have never had the opportunity to meet the princess. ”

Princess Danyang thought that there were two or three hundred soldiers escorted, and it was normal for some of them to be unknown to her, so she asked, "Where is General Li?"

General Li is the general in charge of escorting the team this time, and Princess Danyang took a cursory look just now, but did not see his corpse.

"Princess Huiyu, the ambush here is from Nanzhao, and they are all wearing the costumes of Nanzhao soldiers. The enemy was outnumbered, and had been premeditated to ambush here, and we were caught off guard, with more than half of us killed and wounded in an instant. General Li led us to resist the enemy bravely, and the general was extremely brave and outnumbered, and was finally seriously wounded and captured by the enemy general. ”

Yang Xiaotian had some suspicions when he saw that Princess Danyang didn't know these two people, afraid that it was the enemy pretending, and when he heard that the general was killed in battle and the two people were unharmed, he was even more suspicious, so he asked: "Then how did you two escape?"

The younger soldier did not dare to reply, and the older one said with a red face: "People have three urgies, when the two of us were in the woods to relieve ourselves, and then we heard the sound of shouting and killing, and when we looked at it, the enemy army was fierce, and we were so frightened that we did not dare to come out, and we watched the brothers being slaughtered, and asked the princess to condemn us." ”

Yang Xiaotian kept staring at him, seeing that he was sincere, and at this time, as long as he raised his sword and fell, their lives would be in danger, there was really no need to lie to himself, even if he wanted to deceive, he would make up a more suitable excuse, and he would not use such a reason for dereliction of duty.

The young man looked at Princess Danyang and waited for her to fall.

Princess Danyang was agitated at this time, and she didn't have the heart to blame the two of them, and said: "The closest military camp to here is General Wu Zhongtian's Zhennan Army, you should rush there first to report to General Wu about this incident, and let General Wu quickly report to the imperial court." ”

"What about you, princess, do you want to go back with us?"

Danyang said: "I still have some other things to do, and I will go back when the things are done." ”

The older soldier said urgently: "Then how can the princess be in danger!"

Princess Danyang raised her voice with a cold face: "With my eldest brother protecting me, how can there be danger, since you were hiding and watching just now, you must have also seen the scene of the eldest brother saving me, do you think you are even more powerful than him!"

The two of them remembered the situation when Yang Xiaotian's body flashed like a ghost just now to save Princess Danyang, and they thought that these two teenagers should be the rumored cultivators, but it was much more useful than themselves to have the two of them protect the princess.

"It's just the princess, we're afraid that the boss will blame the two of us. The older soldier said.

Princess Danyang thought for a while and said, "I will repair a book and explain what happened, and they will not blame you." ”

The two soldiers bowed down and kowtowed, "Thank you, princess!"

Princess Danyang found a pen and paper from the scattered items, began to write, and said in the letter that the attack on the team and the relatives had been attacked, and asked Wu Zhongtian to report the matter to the imperial court, and arranged for someone to come over to dispose of the body, and also said that she had found clues to the matter, and she went to investigate it herself, so there was no need to worry. After writing it, he gave the letter to the soldiers, telling them to be cautious, just in case it was best to change it to an ordinary person

clothing, be sure to send the letter to Wu Zhongtian, and the two soldiers took the order.

Princess Danyang saw the two of them walking away, and said thoughtfully: "Although Ning Guo and Nanzhao Guo have often fought before, they have signed an armistice agreement in the past year, and the relationship is quite harmonious, not to mention that the two countries are about to tie up the friendship of Qin and Jin, it stands to reason that such a thing cannot happen, this is something that I have never been able to understand." ”

Yang Xiaotian said: "Sister, you don't have to worry, I will definitely help you find out about this matter." ”

Princess Danyang asked, "Big brother, then, let's go over there, should we go to Nanzhao, or go back to Ningguo first?"

Yang Xiaotian thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the border of Ningguo first, and ask if anything unusual has happened recently." ”

"Good!"

So the three of them crossed the bridge and walked all the way up along the quicksand river, stopping and stopping, and walked for dozens of miles.

Yang Xiaotian saw that Princess Danyang was sweating and a little tired, so he wanted to stop and rest first.

"Ahh

Who knew that before Yang Xiaotian could say anything, he suddenly heard Princess Danyang let out an exclamation.

"What's the matter?" the boy asked hurriedly.

Princess Danyang pointed not far ahead, trembling and said, "Skeletons, why are there so many skeletons?"

Looking along Danyang's fingers, dozens of meters ahead, there were skeletons and dry bones all over the ground, spreading along the quicksand river, according to the number, I am afraid that there are tens of thousands, and there are rusty broken spears and broken knives next to the dry bones.

Yang Xiaotian and Liu Feiyi glanced at each other, and knew in their hearts that there must have been a big battle here, and these dry bones must have been soldiers who died in the war.

The two of them were sad in their hearts: war is always so cruel, and they pity the white bones everywhere.

Concubine Liu took Princess Danyang's hand and said softly, "Sister, don't be afraid, sister will fly you over." ”

Concubine Liu sacrificed the flying sword, let Princess Danyang stand on the flying sword and hugged herself tightly, and flew over this large area of dry bones.

Yang Xiaotian looked at the boundless dry bones, thoughtfully, sighed, and flew to catch up with Liu Feiyi.
