Chapter 53: Rewarding the Three Armies
The bright sunlight reflected on the bluestone, and a white-bearded old man in a moon-white robe sat cross-legged, his expression was tranquil, exhaling the aura of heaven and earth, like an immortal.
Inadvertently, a figure appeared.
The white-bearded old man smiled and said lightly: "Xiaoyou's complexion is good today!"
Yan Shan nodded slightly, and said with a light smile: "I am about to travel far away, and this time I am here to bid farewell to my seniors." β
The white-bearded old man was slightly surprised, and stroked his beard lightly and said, "Xiaoyou has a heart." β
"I hope that the seniors will cherish it and say goodbye!" Before the words fell, the figure was gone.
Although it was only a few words, the white-bearded old man was very pleased, and said to himself: "Stinky boy, I finally have a little conscience!"
General's Palace, guest rooms. Ren Yong was lying on the bed, his face was as white as paper, and his eyes showed a faint sadness. Ma Buyao sat quietly at the table, holding his cheeks with his hands, thoughtful.
Yan Shan slowly walked into the room, came to Ren Yong's side, and said with concern: "Brother Ren, are you better?"
A smile appeared on his pale face, and Ren Yong said slowly: "It's not in the way, Brother Yan has a heart." β
Yan Shan sighed lightly, and said: "The eight brothers of the Tibetan Soldier Mountain Villa are brave and brave, and they are desperate to help us at the critical moment of our life and death. Now, seven brothers have died tragically, and Brother Ren is seriously injured, such a great favor, Yan Shan really doesn't know how to repay it. β
Ren Yong's heart was surging, and he said loudly: "Being in the rivers and lakes, it is our mission to fight chivalrous righteousness and eliminate demons, how dare we say that we are grateful? What's more, it is really an honor for our brothers to be able to fight side by side with Beigong Daxia, Brother Yan and other heroes in the world in the past few days, sharing life and death." I also hope that Brother Yan will stop repaying lightly, otherwise he will look down on our brother. β
Yan Shan looked excited, held Ren Yong's hands tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Ren!"
Tears flashed in his eyes, and Ren Yong's face showed a look of relief.
Yan Shan calmed down, turned to Ma Buyao, and said slowly: "I don't know why Miss Ma helped me so much?"
Ma Buyao smiled and said softly, "What does Brother Yan think?"
Yan Shan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Ma Buyao's expression changed slightly, and there was a hint of imperceptible murderous aura in his eyes, and he muttered: "Brother Wanyan Gu." β
Yan Shan knew in his heart, and said slowly: "Miss Ma wants to kill him to avenge Brother Ling?"
Ma Buyao bowed slightly.
Yan Shan sighed lightly and said, "But what can I do for you?"
Ma Buyao looked firm, and said in a deep voice: "Heroes in the world, there are very few people who can fight with Brother Wanyan Gu, and even fewer people who are not afraid of the might of the Jin Kingdom. In my eyes, only Brother Yan has both great wisdom and courage, and this is what follows all the way. β
Yan Shan was slightly embarrassed, and said with a straight face: "If I have the opportunity, I will definitely get rid of Brother Yan Gu." But in a short period of time, I simply couldn't do it. β
Ma Buyao smiled indifferently and said, "With your promise, there is hope for revenge for my eldest brother, so it is enough." β
Yan Shan was immediately relieved and asked, "I don't know what Miss Ma is going to do at the moment?"
Ma Buyao said: "When Brother Ren's injury is a little lowered, we will rush back to the Tibetan Soldier Villa." In the future, if the Yan brothers need to help, the Tibetan Soldier Villa will definitely spare no effort. β
Yan Shan bowed his head and showed gratitude.
After that, Yan Shan came to Li Rendao's room. Beigong Duge sat silently, looking calm. Li Ruoxian's face was worried, and her heart was heavy. Li Rendao's old wounds had not healed, and new injuries had been added, his face was as white as paper, but his eyes were full of strength and unyielding. When he saw Yan Shan, a smile appeared on his face.
Yan Shan sat down beside Li Rendao's bed and said softly, "Brother Li feels better?"
Li Rendao smiled lightly: "It's just a flesh injury, and you can continue to travel in two days." β
The prince of Western Xia, with golden branches and jade leaves, and a golden body, can still handle it calmly in such a situation, which is really rare.
Yan Shan nodded slightly, his eyes revealing admiration.
Li Ruoxian slowly walked in front of Yan Shan, handed out a letter, and said softly: "Look at it." β
Yan Shan took the letter, opened it and looked at it, the content was very simple: Five days later, there was a battle on the top of Liupan Mountain in Pingliang Mansion - Cheng Donglai. Yan Shan was slightly stunned, looked at Beigong Duge, and asked, "Senior, is this Cheng Donglai the leader of the Western Regions Demon Sect?"
Beigong Duge looked indifferent and bowed slightly.
Yan Shan asked again: "I wonder how the seniors recovered from their internal injuries?"
Beigong Duge smiled slightly, and replied to the question: "Six years ago, I fought with Cheng Donglai, and I didn't know the winner. This time, he came from afar, and he really had good intentions. This battle is inevitable, otherwise we will both have regrets. β
The Western Xia coup d'Γ©tat, Beigong Duge had to be involved. In front of the two armies, facing thousands of troops and horses, even if the number one master of Western Xia could do so? Cheng Donglai knew in his heart, why didn't Beigong Duge be? It's just that Cheng Donglai didn't know that Beigong Duge's internal injuries had not healed. Similarly, Beigong Twilight would never mention it. In any case, this battle is inevitable.
Yan Shan's brows were furrowed, his expression was desolate, and he didn't say a word.
Beigong Duge said calmly: "After this battle, no matter what the victory or defeat is, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to Western Xia. Maybe that's fate. Little Brother Yan, the important task of escorting Rendao back to Western Xia and quelling the rebellion can only be entrusted to you. β
Yan Shan breathed a long sigh of relief and nodded: "Senior, rest assured, as long as I am here, I will ensure that the two highnesses return to Western Xia safely, and I will go all out to assist the two highnesses to quell the rebellion of Western Xia." β
This is Yanshan's promise, and no one questions it. Along the way, Yanshan has proved himself with practical actions.
Beigong Duge bowed slightly, and his face showed a look of relief.
This moment is not parting, it is better than parting. The air was almost condensed, and the room was deadly silent. Time was passing, and unconsciously, tears slipped down the cheeks of Li Ruoxian and Li Rendao.
Beigong Duge smiled calmly and said slowly: "People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. Why should you be sad, there are some things that you have to face for yourselves, so that you can really grow. β
Yan Shan snapped his fingers and said loudly: "In the past few days, we have been hovering on the edge of life and death, but we have never been afraid or given up. At the moment, we are still alive and well, so what is there to fear?"
Beigong Duge nodded again and again, and said: "Along the way, in the face of strong enemies, you are brave and fearless, and you have fought on the battlefield. Between life and death, you have no fear, and you regard death as your home. You are all the best in the world, and you have proved yourself with practical actions. Remember, in all circumstances, you have to stick together so that you can be invincible and move forward. β
Li Ruoxian's expression was solemn, and he nodded: "Master, we will never let you down. β
Crystal tears flickered, Li Rendao looked sad, and muttered: "Master, in the past few days, I have been fighting side by side with everyone, sharing life and death, this is exactly the life I desire. In the future, even if it is difficult and dangerous, we will continue to move forward. β
Beigong Twilight smiled happily.
Li Rendao continued: "However, the master's internal injuries have not healed, but he wants to fight with the Demon Sect Master, I really can't rest assured!"
Beigong Duge looked at Li Rendao, his eyes were full of pity, and he smiled lightly: "This battle is only about victory or defeat, regardless of life and death, it's okay." β
The three of them nodded silently, their expressions different.
