Chapter 183: Countering the Weakness
Before I knew it, I had driven my horse to the outside of Changsha City. Looking at the ruined city, Zhou Yi stroked his chest and sighed, "Have you ever wondered why the heroic generals of the past have fallen into such a situation?"
"Isn't it to protect Xuanyuan Sword's reputation? Wu Xin put her hand on the pergola, followed his gaze, and replied without thinking.
Indeed, this is indeed the superficial reason, he is a dutiful son. ”
"Listen to you, does he have other problems?"
"Why do you use the word bitterness?"
"In order to accomplish one thing, it is not a bitter thing to make the famous heroic general, the heir of the strongest sword sect in the world, incognito!"
Zhou Yi turned his head slightly, lowered his eyebrows and pondered, and said with an indifferent smile: "The real Ji Heng is dying, and the fake Ji Heng is on the battlefield of recovering the lost territory! I guess the master must have made a bet with himself at that time, he was looking to see if his younger brother really had the ability to defeat the Turks, and then decided whether he would stay or not." Fortunately, Ji Yin did not give the Turks a chance to take advantage of the victory, and 50,000 iron cavalry killed more than 100,000 Turkic troops, and that battle must have swallowed mountains and rivers!"
Wu Xin sneered and said, "Shi Weng is your master, and his identity was taken away by his younger brother, why do you say that it is lucky?"
Zhou Yi's eyebrows slowed slightly, "Because this is the ending that Master wants to see the most." ”
Wu Xin was stunned and suddenly dumbfounded.
"Defeated the Turkic army and kept the reputation of Xuanyuan Sword, and these two must be insignificant, the name Ji Heng is insignificant, I guess, he must have thought so in his heart. You look at the ruined city, the displaced people. He is a person who cares about his family and country, and his personal gains and losses are nothing in front of these people!"
"I see, that's what you mean. In the rivers and lakes, there must not be many people who can transcend things, and there must be few people with such a pattern. ”
Zhou Yi nodded and said, "But his old man still hasn't finished telling his story, and what is in front of me is still a puzzle." ”
"And what are your plans?"
"Let's go back to Baihe Mountain first. ”
"Didn't you go and save your Mengyan girl first?"
Zhou Yi's face turned red and sighed: "I thought too much just now, don't say that we are already one step later than Yu Xi, even if we set off a few days in advance, with Niansheng's foot strength, we will never reach Taiji Mountain before her." But it doesn't matter, Yu Xi looks extremely ...... Haoshuang, but not a reckless person, can only trust her now. ”
Hearing him pull the word 'bold' for a long time, Wu Xin couldn't help laughing: "She is my sister, you should be careful when you speak in the future!"
Zhou Yi turned the horse's head and said in a rather playful tone: "Even if I praise her a hundred times every day, you may not say good about me in front of her, this is the case between sisters, there are always some little secrets that cannot be said, but if you think about it carefully, none of them are true." ”
Wu Xinyan smiled, and it made sense to think about it. In the past, those little sisters of Biyunxuan whispered in private, most of them were young girls, but they were ashamed of their duplicity after speaking.
Getting back to business, Wu Xin suddenly frowned, "After you return to Baihe Mountain, if I come to visit, I will be treated as an enemy?"
"The people of Baihe Mountain have clear grievances, it was Zuo Zixiao who killed me last time, on the contrary, you are the one who saved me. Except for those entanglements between you and the third uncle, there is no reason why Baiheshan should not welcome you, besides, the Jiulong Jade Flute was originally taken by the third uncle from the Six Hanging Peaks, and everyone knows who is right and who is wrong in their hearts in the past ten years. ”
"If everyone can think like you, there won't be such a chaotic world. Wu Xin thought for a moment, paused, and asked again: "What are your next countermeasures about the man in black?"
"I've already thought about it, go to Zoroastrianism!"
I know your efforts to solve the unsolved family case, but after all, this is an old case involving the grievances of three generations, and it is by no means something that can be found out overnight, and Mr. Gongsun's words may not be able to solve the mystery in your heart. ”
Zhou Yi nodded, knowing in her heart that she was concerned about her own safety, so she smiled and said: "Gongsun Ji's words are all relayed for the master, I don't know what his grievances with the man in black have to do with Zoroastrianism, but this matter involves Brother Sima, so I can't help but check it." Besides, I think there are some things that Master knows the truth, and he doesn't want to tell them directly, but he wants me to find out for myself, and I believe that this process may be more meaningful to me than the result itself. ”
"After all, this is all your speculation, isn't it too hasty to risk your life for the sake of a false assumption?"
"If you don't give it a try, will you have to regret your wrong practices today when you get nothing in the future?" said this, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "But before that, there are still some things that need to be settled." ”
"Is it a matter of Yu Xi?"
Zhou Yi spread his shoulders with a helpless look, "It's better for me not to explain anything to her, otherwise it will only get more and more chaotic." ”
Wu Xin asked, "Then what do you want to finish? Is it Mengyan?"
When Zhou Yi heard this, he immediately rubbed the sideburns on both sides with his hands, with a painful feeling of seeing through the red dust, "Now is the critical period for me to fight with the man in black, what kind of children's love affair, from now on I will be a passerby." You still don't know, I met Yan Hao in Longyunzhai, but I didn't expect him to be also a member of the imperial court, oh, to be exact, he is also an accomplice of the man in black. ”
"Yan Hao?" Wu Xin had heard of this name, but he was not very familiar with it, "Is it the eldest son of the former prime minister Yan Zilong?"
"Have you heard of him?" Zhou Yi was a little surprised by Wu Xin's answer, "That's right, it's him." ”
"I've heard of this person, like," Wu Xin closed his eyes and thought for a while, and suddenly said: "By the way, he and Zuo Zixiao have some friendships, as if they had a relationship with each other eleven years ago." I don't have a good impression of this man, why did you mention him?"
Thinking of last night's incident, Zhou Yi couldn't help but worry for a while, especially Yaogui's death, which made him wonder if the sword in his hand was already wantonly killing for his own purposes.
"He, like Yaogui, is a man in black on the rivers and lakes, eleven years ago the siege of Baihe Mountain had him to help the trouble, three years ago Longyunzhai helped Liuhangfeng from Nanyang to Changsha to chase and intercept the third uncle, which is also the result of Yan Hao's mediation. As he spoke, he glanced back at Wu Xin, and said with a deep thought: "I killed Yaogui......"
"When!" Wu Xin was taken aback, although she also hated Yaogui a little, but when it came to him being killed by Zhou Yi, she was somewhat surprised.
"Just this morning, he forced a lot of his former brothers to death......"
Wu Xin saw that he was lonely, and he was in a trance, and he could probably understand his mood at the moment, so he persuaded: "Just take revenge for Sun Mian, and you don't have to blame yourself." And then, Yan Hao fled?"
Zhou Yi said: "I was about to talk about him, I'm afraid you don't know Zhong Yu's true identity yet." ”
Wu Xin was stunned, bit her fingers and thought for a while, "Is it the little girl who grew up with your mother?"
Zhou Yi nodded, "She is Yan Hao's niece, the daughter of Yan Chong, the former son of the Yan family." ”
Wu Xin looked surprised, felt a little incredible, and was stunned for a long time before saying, "I didn't expect that the Yan family tracked down the whereabouts of your mother and son in order to find Zhong Yu!"
Zhou Yi shook his head and said: "It's true that they are tracking down the whereabouts of me and my mother, but if you want to say that it is for Zhong Yu, it is another matter." ”
"What do you mean?"
Zhou Yi sneered: "Yan Hao said something to me this morning, I suspect that he has plans to use Zhong Yu to deal with Baihe Mountain, which is also a task arranged for him by the black man. ”
"Are you sure?"
"I'm not sure, so I have to take care of Zhong Yu's affairs before I go to the Zoroastrian Sect, otherwise there will be a fire in the backyard, wouldn't it be sad!"
"Not necessarily, Zhong Yu is your sister who grew up together, you can see that she is good to you, those things that hurt others and are not good for yourself, it is difficult to say that she will listen to her uncle. ”
Zhou Yi bowed slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Then it depends on what this Mr. Yan says to her, or what he will say." Speaking of this, Zhou Yi couldn't help but think of what happened in Baihe Mountain a few days ago, Zhong Yu for him, I'm afraid he no longer trusted him as before, "I have a bad premonition, Zhong Yu may be a card he used against me, and my relationship with her will eventually be a weakness for me to fight back." ”
Wu Xin sighed: "Yes, ten years of brother and sister, how to prevent it?
The sunset was red, Zhou Yi was stunned, and he didn't think much about it at the moment, rode his horse and whipped away.
