Chapter 25: The Gift of the Sword
Chu Yanxi and Yang Ye looked at the corpse on the ground and were silent for a long time.
"These seven people are not professional killers!" Chu Yanxi said lightly.
"How can Gongzi Chu see it?" Yang Ye fixed his mind.
"The killer doesn't reveal his identity, and he doesn't talk much, or even speaks, like a dead man. Chu Yanxi said lightly.
"I feel like we're already very lucky! If it's a professional killer, I'm afraid it's even more difficult to deal with. Yang Ye said with emotion.
"General Yang, where should your subordinates go now?" Chu Yanxi walked in front of Yang Ye and looked at the woods.
"Passing through the dense forest, you should go to the foot of the Cangshan Mountain! It's not too far!" Yang Ye looked at it from afar, although it was blocked by the mountain peaks and trees, he looked confident.
"Let's hurry up, I'm afraid they'll be ambushed, and the bison must have accomplices. Chu Yanxi said lightly.
"Young Master Chu is extremely right!" Yang Ye said with a smile.
Chu Yanxi and Yang Ye cautiously walked forward, walked across the chaotic stone avenue, and saw Yang Ye's men rushing at great speed, and the two did not approach Yang Ye to report loudly: "General Dong has an urgent order, and he wants General Yang to return to the city quickly!"
"What! you want me to go back to the city!" Yang Ye asked.
The two men dismounted and bowed, and handed a letter to Yang Ye.
The envelope was opened, Yang Ye immediately read the contents of the letter, and gently put the envelope away. His face looked extremely ugly, and his subordinates didn't dare to look directly at Yang Ye.
Chu Yanxi was also curious about the content of the letter, but she didn't bother to ask, waiting for Yang Ye to speak.
After a long time, Yang Ye said lightly: "You go down first, I'll arrive later." With that, the two men hurriedly retreated, mixing with the others.
"I wonder if there is a big deal in General Dong's urgent recall?" Chu Yanxi finally couldn't help but speak.
"Yes, there is an emergency!" Yang Ye said.
"There is something to ask for below, I wonder if Gongzi Chu can agree?" Yang Ye said.
"What's the matter, General Yang can just say it bluntly. Chu Yanxi said.
"Can you borrow the skeleton sword and use it, and return it to Prince Chu when you run out. Yang Ye said.
"Of course you can, how long will General Yang last. Chu Yanxi said.
"Now I can let you go first, and when you finish dealing with things, you can go back to Dali City to get your sword. Yang Ye looked at Chu Yanxi and said strictly.
"Is this what General Dong meant?" Chu Yanxi said lightly.
"No, it's in the next meaning. Yang Ye said lightly.
"Oh! If General Yang loves this sword, Chu is willing to give it away. After speaking, Chu Yanxi thoughtfully stroked the skeleton sword, and handed the sword to Yang Ye with both hands for a long time.
Yang Ye took the skull sword, looked at Chu Yanxi and said, "The sword will definitely return to you, and next time you can meet, you will definitely drink three hundred cups with Gongzi Chu." ”
Chu Yanxi said lightly: "Wine is a treasure in the world, Chu is the favorite in his life, and he will have a chance to drink with General Yang." Chu hoped that General Yang would cherish the skull sword. ”
Yang Ye said lightly: "I will cherish this sword, I think there will be a killer who will come back to assassinate Chu Gongzi, Chu Gongzi will be careful all the way and say goodbye." Then he turned and left.
Chu Yanxi was silent, the sun was setting, and suddenly a cold wind hit, but he didn't feel cold, because his heart was cold, an indescribable cold.
Chu Yanxi finally walked forward on foot, without horses, no swords, and no wine to accompany him, he didn't know what kind of move it was to give the skull sword to Yang Ye, he loved the sword, and he loved the skull sword even more, and giving the sword to Yang Ye was the cowardice in his heart? Or was it the pride of the rivers and lakes? Or was it for the Dali Kingdom? Or did he want to retire to the rivers and lakes to find a new master for the sword?
No one could answer, let alone know, not even Chu Yanxi herself.
Just as Yang Ye borrowed the sword to protect Chu Yanxi's life, Yang Ye and Chu Yanxi had only known each other for a day, but Yang Ye believed that Chu Yanxi was a rumored murderer who killed the people, harmed the loyal and good, and colluded with the bandits.
Therefore, when Yang Ye saw General Dong's order in the letter to kill Chu Yanxi and recapture the skeleton sword, Yang Ye no longer knew where to go, the military order could not be violated, and chivalry could not be lost. He believed that Chu Yanxi was innocent.
Yang Ye knew that he could only use the skeleton sword to restore his life, so that General Dong would definitely believe it. Who doesn't know, no one in the rivers and lakes can defeat Chu Yanxi openly and fairly.
Chu Yanxi was silent, he felt that he had a body of martial arts, he couldn't do anything, he fell into confusion again, what is he living for, what is he living for?
used to live desperately, to live for swordsmanship, to live for fame and fortune, but everything ends up with a bite to eat, and if you don't eat, you will starve to death......
Today, Lingyun Building earns hundreds or even thousands of silver taels every year, which is enough for ordinary people to eat for a lifetime.
Chu Yanxi picked up a branch and began to practice swordsmanship, maybe only in this way could he calm his heart.
Suddenly, a black horse appeared in front of Chu Yanxi from afar, it was sturdy, its ears were erect, and when it saw Chu Yanxi, it was even more angry and walked from the avenue at a high speed while screaming.
When Chu Yanxi saw the black horse, she stopped practicing martial arts, and looked at her blankly and couldn't speak.
After a long time, he said to himself, "Isn't this the horse I rode when I came out!" He stroked the black horse, and there was an indescribable emotion in his heart.
The dark horse looked at Chu Yanxi, shaking his head, they were like old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, confiding in each other about the people and things they had encountered.
"Friend, it's really time for you to come, I'll give you a name today, how about it?" Chu Yanxi said to the black horse.
"Wind Shadow"
"Is it good to name it Fengying?" said Chu Yanxi while stroking the black horse.
As if he understood Chu Yanxi's words, the horse stared at Chu Yanxi with his eyes, and walked around Chu Yanxi from time to time.
Chu Yanxi looked at the horse, the wind shadow, and smiled slightly. Ride the Wind Shadow and run in the direction of Rabbit Castle.
