Chapter 1029: Reunion of Grievances (Part II)
"It's very close to Chen Shijin?...... Lu Jing heard this, and said with more doubts in her heart, "Wait, I remember that Zhu Yuanzhang talked to me today, and he has always been clear about the general movements of me and the fool in the past few days...... If you want to know the whereabouts of me and the fool, you must get news from Brother Tong Chen, and the generals in the enemy formation who are not of Chen Shijin's level are not clear...... In this way, there is some truth in the fool's analysis......"
"Moreover, I have never been able to figure out what is the significance of Chen Shijin's original plan to go to Amber Hill alone...... Tang Zhan continued to wonder, "He should already know the news of the death of Tong Chen and Sima Hanyi in battle-now that Tongguan is facing the danger of falling, how can he still have the 'leisure' to go to Amber Hill alone? And you said that it was a coincidence, our army happened to send troops to Amber Hill tonight, and the emperor's military order was decisive and resolute, and he didn't even frown......
Tang Zhan's last "aura" sentence, Lu Jing sounded as if she had suddenly realized something, and her eyes couldn't help but be stunned. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"If you really want to talk about it, in comparison, the emperor should be a lot more shrewd in the enemy formation, but Chen Shijin himself, as the chief general of Tongguan, is much more sluggish, and what he does is unreasonable...... Do you say, Jing'er?" Tang Zhan continued to mutter, but when he turned around, he saw Lu Jing's stunned expression, and couldn't help asking, "Jing'er...... Jing'er?-"
"Isn't it ...... Should it be ......" Lu Jing seemed to think of something terrible, and her expression became more and more panicked, "Impossible, impossible...... If that's the case, then all of this is a big game, we are all just pawns to be used, and the death of Brother Qin and Sister Ying...... I can't believe it's like that, but right now, it's the only possible explanation for it all......"
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, Lu Jing's limbs were even a little numb, and she trembled and felt uneasy on her horse.
"Jing'er, what's wrong with you?Hey, Jing'er......" Tang Zhan looked at Lu Jing's "enchanted" expression and kept calling......
"Let's go!-" But suddenly, as soon as the military order outside the camp sounded, the 100,000-strong army was ready to set off for Amber Hill.
The sound of the military order woke Lu Jing back from the "nightmare", Lu Jing's eyes trembled for a while, and the reins of the horse were shouting: "Let's go, let's hurry up and go to Amber Hill!" The situation seemed to be very tense, and there could be no delay for a moment, Lu Jing was so anxious that he didn't even pay attention to Tang Zhan, turned around and followed the large army.
"Jing'er-" Seeing Lu Jing's strange expression, Tang Zhan shouted eagerly, and patted his horse to follow......
As night falls, the summit of Amber Hill ......
According to the agreement with Zheng Yuhua seven days ago, Chen Shijin went to Zhihuqiu alone today to defend the appointment of the decisive battle at the same door. Although before leaving, he received the news that Su Jia had defeated Zheng Yuhua, Chen Shijin still came here as promised-he believed that people would not change their agreement, even if Zheng Yuhua could not come for some reason, the figure he had been looking forward to would come as promised......
"Hu......h-Huh" Tonight's wind is very strong, especially on the top of the mountain, the shadow of the mountains shrouded in the night, black towering, like a bony vein, deep with tranquility.
It's a pity that tonight's night can't resonate with the thoughts in the hearts of companions, but the upcoming life-and-death decisive battle exaggerates the sad killing machine in advance. Chen Shijin stood alone on the high platform of the peak, carrying a sword, blowing the night breeze, closing his eyebrows, if he had thoughts, quietly waiting for the arrival of the figure.
"Yi Yao, I believe that you will replace Zheng Yuhua tonight and come to fight with me in a life-and-death battle......" Chen Shijin closed his eyes and said silently in his heart, "I haven't seen you for three years, and I don't know how much ...... you have grown now"
In the secret words, Chen Shijin is full of memories of the past, and the "blood feud" in the Wind Chaser faction three years ago is still vividly remembered......
(in recall)......
On the day of the "disaster", Li Yiyao (Su Jia) learned the truth about Chen Shijin's rebellion for the first time, and her heart was completely depraved and desperate......
Li Yiyao looked up and saw a familiar face. But this figure was too unfamiliar, because he was dressed in the armor of a Mengyuan soldier and rode on a Mongolian iron horse, with a cold face hanging on it.
He is Chen Shijin!
Li Yiyao couldn't believe her eyes at all now, she couldn't believe that this was the truth, she preferred to believe that it was just a nightmare...... It's a pity that this is not a dream, but a cruel and unchanging fact.
Chen Shijin said in a cold tone: "Yi Yao, it's you ......"
Li Yiyao trembled all over, and cried and said, "You...... Why are you wearing the armor of the Mengyuan soldiers, you ...... Why do you ......?"
Chen Shijin said solemnly: "No why, I am now the general of Mengyuan Xicheng, and I have already defected to the imperial court!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Yiyao was suddenly hit hard, and her heart seemed to be struck by lightning and then burned to ashes...... Li Yiyao was in a trance for a moment, and then her eyes suddenly became murderous, and she glared at Chen Shijin angrily and said, "Why are you ...... Why do you want to take refuge in the Mengyuan Imperial Court - answer me!!" The last sentence of "answer me" was particularly loud, and the Mengyuan soldiers present were startled.
Chen Shijin said expressionlessly: "If you take refuge in the Ming Lord, you can enjoy all the glory and wealth, this is the reason!"
Li Yiyao cried and said: "Didn't you say that you want me to be like you to become a person who has the world in mind and places his heart on the people? But you actually did the opposite and became a lackey of the Mengyuan court!"
Chen Shijin looked at Li Yiyao, who was full of tears, and sneered: "Hmph, Yiyao, I advise you, don't easily believe a man's words, especially a man who only reasoned with you, but never did anything for you." It's like me, I reason with you every day, but I never do anything for you......"
Li Yiyao no longer had any hope for Chen Shijin, and quickly drew his sword. Seeing this, the surrounding Mengyuan soldiers waited for each other. Li Yiyao's sword pointed directly at Chen Shijin, and said ruthlessly: "Chen Shijin, you are the evil dog thief in the world, I will kill you!" So a long roar passed, and Li Yiyao swung his sword away at great speed......
It's a pity that Li Yiyao's martial arts were weak in the end and she was defeated by Chen Shijin......
......
(In reality)......
"I haven't seen you for a long time, things are people, I don't know if you are now Yi Yao, after 'reuniting' with me, will you still be like three years ago, jealous and hateful to my enemy...... It's just that this reunion may be a short-lived battle of life and death......" Chen Shijin was silent, and before the battle, he was a little more indifferent.
"Huh-huh-......huh-huh
"It's the same as before, the ......wind blows at night," Chen Shijin smiled slowly, remembering inexplicable memories and said, "It's really the same, when I was chasing the wind, I never promised to make an agreement with Yiyao ...... you"
In the hazy night, Chen Shijin couldn't help but recall the agreement with Su Jia when he was chasing the wind......
(in recall)......
Three years ago, the Dongling Hall of the Wind Chasing Sect was ......
This night, Chen Shijin and Li Yiyao were ordered by Mo Tianxing, and the two went to the main hall to clean up the papers, because there were too many papers, and by the time the two finished packing, it was already very late when they went down the mountain......
Tonight's night is breezy and sleepless......
"Hey, I'm so tired...... Master Mo is really, he called us there at night, and thought that there were good things such as martial arts cheats to teach us, who knew that it was such a as packing up the books......" On the way down the mountain, Li Yiyao kept waving her sore arms and complained.
"It's okay, Yi Yao, the head of the family specially named the two of us to go, explaining that he cares about and takes care of us......" Chen Shijin was quite open-minded, and said with a smile.
"But there's no need to clean up so much, right? I'm almost too tired to fall apart after working so late......," Li Yiyao complained again, muttering from time to time.
"Since you're so tired, Yi Yao, you should go back and rest early......" Chen Shijin comforted, and the two of them happened to walk to the intersection of the fork and go home by the way, so Wen Wen said kindly.
"No-" However, Li Yiyao seemed to remember something, and suddenly raised a little spirit, "I suddenly remembered, Senior Brother Chen, you promised me to teach me swordsmanship moves...... You've been too busy to have time these days, and you happen to be free tonight, so you can teach me now-"
"Now, this ......" Chen Shijin seemed to be a little shirked, looked at the night in the sky, and refused with a smile, "It's too late today, I'll see next time......
"Oh......" Li Yiyao was slightly disappointed when she heard this, and after squeaking, she parted ways with Chen Shijin at the intersection with a blank face......
......
Another night, Li Yiyao, Xu Shuang, Wu Xian, and Lu Tao stood together at the foot of Shimen Mountain--Chen Shijin was ordered by Mo Tianxing to go to Bianliang for ten days, and he had to come back tonight; the four of them got the news and stayed at the intersection after dinner, looking forward to the return of their senior brother......
Tonight is also a cool breeze, with a hint of coldness in the silence......
"Is this really appropriate......" Xu Shuang looked at Li Yiyao's "stubborn" appearance on the side, and couldn't help asking, "Senior Sister Yiyao, it's so cold here at night, why don't we go home and wait for Senior Brother Chen......" As he spoke, Xu Shuang couldn't help but shrug his shoulders.
"No, I must wait for Senior Brother Chen to come back tonight-" Li Yiyao held the long sword and insisted, "Senior Brother Chen promised me that he would teach me swordsmanship--but he was ordered by Master Mo to go to Bianliang for ten days and did not return...... Tonight, no matter what, I'm going to wait for him to come back and promise him what he promised me!"
"But I'm so sleepy...... Let's go back......" Wu Xian was also a little unhappy on the side, yawning even Tiandao.
"If you don't wait alone, Senior Sister Yiyao, let's go back first......" Xu Shuang continued to droop, really didn't want to accompany Senior Sister to continue to "suffer" here.
So, Xu Shuang, Wu Xian and Lu Tao went back first, leaving Li Yiyao to continue to wait here alone......
Li Yiyao always firmly believed that looking ahead, braving the wind and cold at night, she had to wait for Chen Shijin's return from beginning to end.
Finally, his efforts were not in vain, and in front of the Yamaguchi Path, under the hazy moonlight, Chen Shijin's figure gradually emerged......
"Senior Brother Chen-" Li Yiyao ran over excitedly, and couldn't wait to greet him, "Great, you're finally back......"
"Yi Yao, it's so late, why are you here alone-" Chen Shi saw it today, and couldn't help but care, "It's cold at night, be careful not to freeze." It's okay for me to come back, Yiyao, go home and rest, otherwise Sister Xiaohong will find out, and I'm worried about ......"
"But Senior Brother Chen, didn't you promise me ten days ago that you would compensate me for teaching me swordsmanship?" Li Yiyao continued unrelentingly.
"I said it, but then because of Master Mo's task, I unintentionally delayed ......" Chen Shijin responded, looked at Li Yiyao's expectant eyes, and suddenly realized, "You are waiting for me here tonight, should you ...... That's what it's for, isn't it?"
"Of course—" Li Yiyao nodded urgently, "These days, you have always been delaying and delaying this and that...... You're back tonight, it's all right this time, right? You promised me, don't go back-" In the last sentence, Li Yiyao even said a little coquettishly.
"But it's too late today, I've just come back from Bianliang and I'm so tired......" Chen Shijin smiled and said politely, "Next time, Yi Yao, I will definitely teach you next time...... It's not too early, you go home and rest, don't freeze sick here......"
As a result, Chen Shijin once again rejected Li Yiyao - the ten-day wait was such a result, and Li Yiyao was even more disappointed in her heart......
......
Two days before her birthday, Li Yiyao and Hongyun went to other residences to take care of their sick senior sister in the evening, and on the way home, they happened to meet Chen Shijin, who came back from Xiling......
Tonight is still the same, the cool breeze is refreshing......
"Senior Brother Chen-" Seeing Chen Shijin, Li Yiyao couldn't help but shout excitedly.
"It's Yiyao, and Sister Xiaohong......" Chen Shijin's expression was slightly hurried, as if he had just finished the task of dispatching his life, and when he saw Li Yiyao and Hongyun, he was even a little hurried.
"It's so late, where have you been?" Hongyun, who had always cared about his junior brothers and sisters, couldn't help but ask first, "I remember, Master Mo hasn't assigned you any tasks in the past few days? Why do you ......look like you just rushed back from outside?"
"Ah, there are acquaintances...... Find me something, so ......" Chen Shijin seemed to be deliberately hiding something, and said with a slightly flustered expression.
"Then tonight, Senior Brother Chen, do you have time to ......" Li Yiyao still wanted to mention the matter of "sword practice", and continued to ask.
However, before Li Yiyao finished speaking, Chen Shijin said again, "I have to go down the mountain in a while, Sister Xiaohong, if you and Yiyao are fine, go back first......
"Sure enough......" Li Yiyao listened, and her expression was extremely lost.
"Then don't be too late, go home early and rest......" Hongyun smiled faintly, "Also, two days is Yi Yao's birthday, don't forget to give Yi Yao a gift-"
"Ah, I have already prepared Yi Yao's gift, and Yi Yao will definitely like it when the time comes-" Chen Shijin laughed at Li Yiyao, but he didn't look at Li Yiyao a few times, and hurriedly ran down the mountain......
"Okay, although he was busy, he didn't forget to remember Yao's birthday, and said that you prepared a gift for Yiyao, why are you still so unhappy?" Hongyun looked at Li Yiyao's sad face, and asked with a smile.
"Senior Brother Chen...... You don't care about me at all......" Li Yiyao said in a low voice with a complaining face, "It was said that he taught me swordsmanship, but after so many days, he kept shirking ......"
"Okay, Chen Shijin isn't busy every day--this can't be helped, after all, he is the chief disciple of the sect, Yi Yao, you have to be considerate and considerate......" Hongyun continued to comfort, "Besides, he promised to give Yi Yao a gift for your birthday in three days......"
"What's the matter, he may not come to ...... anyway" Li Yiyao continued to complain in a low voice, and then accompanied Hongyun home with a disappointed face......
Sure enough, on his birthday two days later, Chen Shijin asked Xu Shuang and others to send gifts, but he didn't come......
Another day passed, Chen Shijin and Li Yiyao played the last game of chess in their lives......
Later, on the day of "Emei on the Sword", Li Yiyao witnessed Chen Shijin's rebellion, and his heart was completely desperate, and he forgot Chen Shijin's agreement to teach him swordsmanship, and he never saw each other again......
But this agreement, Chen Shijin still remembers it......
(In reality)......
Tonight, at the top of Amber Hill Peak, the cool breeze was blowing, Chen Shijin looked at the long sword in his hand, and couldn't help but think of the previous agreement again. Closing his eyes and concentrating, Chen Shijin said silently in his heart: "Yi Yao, I haven't forgotten the agreement to teach you swordsmanship at the beginning...... The breeze is still blowing tonight, and if you still look for me with anticipation as before, I will fulfill my promise - after all, tonight's battle will be our last reunion......"
Countless times Su Jia (Li Yiyao) looked forward to his figure at night flashed in his mind, and Chen Shijin was still fantasizing that the picture at that time could be reproduced......
"Huh-huh......" The cool breeze blows, and the cold drops cold......
Chen Shijin slowly opened his eyes, and he saw the picture of three years ago again - Su Jia appeared in front of him alone against the night cold......
