Chapter 162: Iron-Blooded Heroic Soul

"Well, I won't mention this kind of thing a second time in the future, and I hope you will cherish yourself. Zhou Yi pursed his mouth and smiled lightly, and the feeling of apology gradually relieved with Wu Xin's blunt words.

"You don't need to worry about it, I'm used to one anyway, and I never expected anyone to worry about anything for me, but you ......" Speaking of this, he unconsciously paused, glanced at Zhou Yi's expression, and said in a low tone: "If you weren't negligent and let that girl named Magpie take advantage of the loophole, maybe you and my sister would really be able to do it." ”

"Your sister?" Originally, Zhou Yi would be upset when he heard someone mention the mess in Kanto, but before he had time to get angry, an inexplicable sister in Wu Xin's mouth couldn't help but make him stunned, "You mean Yu Xi?"

"What, don't you dare to admit it?" Wu Xin raised her eyebrows and teased.

"What do you admit? Yu Xi told you all these things?" As soon as the words came out, he felt that it was inappropriate, and quickly lowered his head and remained silent.

Wu Xin snorted coldly: "I thought you were sincere to her just now, I just said a word, and you pointed the finger of suspicion at her, she has done so much for you during this time, if she knew that you saw her like this in your heart, what would she think?"

Zhou Yi sighed for a long time, and it took a long time to come to his senses, and said in a pious tone: "In that matter, she was an insider, and with your relationship with her, I unconsciously thought that she wrote to tell you." I'm sorry!"

"I'm sorry what?"

Zhou Yi stopped talking, turned around, and interrupted the awkward and unpleasant chat between the two by giving his master a pulse.

"Since when have you become so humble that everyone says you're sorry?"

Zhou Yi raised his head and looked at her with an extremely solemn and serious look, and his dry and cracked lips made a few words for a long time, "Since the moment I came back from the ghost gate, I have been like this now, always self-doubting, often incoherent, for fear that if you are not careful, this arrogant young man who you exchanged for a lifetime of happiness has fallen into another abyss......"

His words were so cold, but Wu Xin was deeply surprised, the two looked at each other for a long time, and they both choked on a sentence in their hearts, but no one wanted to be the first to break the silence, perhaps, this silence is the best way out for the two of them at the moment.

"If you think that helping me would be disloyal to your master, then okay, just because I didn't say those things to you in the first place, okay?"

Wu Xin's body trembled, tears were turned away, and she said softly: "Stick to your heart, and we will take back the rest." ”

After a long time, the hour was already in the evening, and the news that the family of Gongsun Mansion was safe came one after another, but all the matters of Gongsun Mansion fell on Gongsun Ji alone, so he was busy and didn't see him come back yet. Zhou Yi summoned the person who came back to report the news, and asked about the current situation of the people in black and the people in the Waifu, and the man said that the open fire in Gongsun's Mansion had been extinguished, and when Gongsun Ji took people back to investigate, he found that there were still hundreds of people searching in the ruins, if they were not looking for the whereabouts of the man in black, they were ordered by him to confirm the life and death of Shi Weng. So, Gongsun Ji ordered the family to light the remaining unignited gunpowder, and the current Gongsun Mansion is almost in ruins.

Zhou Yi ordered him to tell Gongsun Ji again, no matter what, he had to confirm whether the man in black was dead, and besides, there were many people, and his whereabouts were very easy to be exposed.

In the middle of the night, Shi Weng woke up in a trance, and there was nothing unusual about his body except for a few pains on his body. At that time, the secret room was silent, only beside his sickbed, Zhou Yi and Wu Xin were crawling left and right, sleeping with a tired face.

"Zhou Yi, wake up, the old gentleman is awake...... Wu Xin opened his eyes in a haze, and saw that Shi Weng had already sat up, and quickly shook Zhou Yi, and shouted with a smile on his face.

Seeing that he looked haggard, and that there were traces of binding on his right arm under his head, Shi Weng lowered his eyebrows and thought about it, he had already guessed the mystery of it, and couldn't help but sigh. Just as he was about to stop Wu Xin and let him sleep a little longer, Zhou Yi rubbed his eyes and woke up.

"Master, you're awake, how are you feeling now?"

"If I can't withstand this setback, what will I do to fight him for more than 30 years!" After coughing for a while, Shi Weng Fang gradually calmed down, pulled Zhou Yi's injured arm, showed a shallow smile, and said in a low voice: "It's not okay to be unconvinced, if this was back then, unless I cut off my head, this little injury wouldn't be able to get me!" But now, I still want you to heal my bloodthirsty ...... for me."

After saying that, he coughed again, and the two of them hurriedly helped him lie down, not saying a word about the outside affairs, lest he be frightened by his illness and fill in a new illness.

At this time, Zhou Yi had a lot of miscellaneous things in his heart, and he couldn't calm down to talk to him when he stayed by Shi Weng's side, and his thoughts turned rapidly, adjusting the important things that were happening and about to happen outside the door. But just now, Shi Weng's words inevitably brought the topic to one thing he had been looking for.

"Master's mighty style has not diminished back then, even if the butcher's knife hangs from the neck, you can save the day, can't you?"

"Oh......" Shi Weng's heart trembled, listening to what he said, obviously reading a trace of the past from his own words just now, and wanted to use the topic to play and inquire about the past he wanted to know.

Zhou Yi saw that he was hesitating, then knelt down on his knees in front of the bed, kowtowed: "Master remembered the friendship with Master Tai, and couldn't bear to let Zhou Yi throw himself under the Xuanyuan Sword Sect, but Zhou Yi and Mr. have long been known as master and apprentice, and Master is Zhou Yi's regeneration benefactor, if Xuanyuan Sword can't revive its former majesty in this life and seek well-being for the common people, then the disciple will not be able to repay Master's kindness for recreation!"

Shi Weng crossed his hands in front of his abdomen, saw Wu Xin bowing his head on the side and said in a low voice: "But what did Mr. Jinghui tell you?"

"What Jinghui Zhenren said is not biased, the master can be incognito for the sake of the world, so what reason does the disciple have to stick to those vulgar rites?"

"But after all, you are Zhou Tianyong's apprentice, and the gentleman is not loved by many people, and I will take his treasure from him?"

Zhou Yi raised his head and said: "It is because of you that Master Tai will not be reluctant, please don't shirk anymore and take Zhou Yi in!"

At this moment, the past is vivid, haunting and lingering. Shi Weng sighed with some emotion, sat up straight with the pain on his body, and pulled Zhou Yi up with one hand, "I guess you also asked Jinghui some questions, can she tell you?"

Zhou Yi shook his head and said: "The apprentice doesn't ask anything now, the past is like this, it's heart-wrenching to chase it, it's better to grasp the present, with a pure heart of a fist, to give those old people under the spring a satisfactory answer, isn't it?"

"That's not all you have in mind, and since I passed the Xuanyuan Sword to you, then I shouldn't hide anything from you. Shi Weng covered the wound on his shoulder, looked a little painful and got out of bed, and the two hurriedly supported each other on the left and right.

"For the identity of Ji Heng, I guess you won't be surprised, what you can't guess is that the heroic general back then was obviously killed by the Turks, so how did he come back from the dead, right?"

"Old gentleman......" Wu Xin heard him say his identity, curtsied in a panic, bowed his head and said, "Since the old gentleman has woken up, I'll go tell the master!"

"You don't have to avoid it, you can know everything that Zhou Yi can know. ”

"But I'm just ......"

Shi Weng's face showed a kind smile, "You are born pure, affectionate and righteous, my identity is only a villain, not a gentleman!"

One sentence made Wu Xin's cold heart feel like a spring breeze, and she pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes shining with tears.

Incognito for nearly 40 years, although Shi Weng has looked down on everything, when he thinks of the past, the sharp knife with thorns in his heart can't help but make people tremble!

"Thirty-eight years ago, the Turkic king sent the famous general Ashinada Dun to invade the border of our Central Plains with the troops of the whole country, burning, killing and looting everywhere he went, and the people were not able to make a living! At that time, the military power was in the hands of foreign relatives, and the forces of all sides were intriguing and intriguing with each other, resulting in the delay of our army's fighters, the Turks attacking the city and pulling out the village, and our northern border was in a hurry one after another, and the army was directly approaching the city of Chang'an! At that time, my father was impeached by his relatives and told the old man to return to his hometown, and Uncle Dongguo ...... Oh, that is, the later Yanshan Wang Dong Guo Yan, he fought for his father's innocence, and in the end he did not escape the villain's frame, and finally dismissed the official and returned to his hometown. When Your Majesty ordered the enemy to be defeated, he took pity on my Heavenly Empire, and there was no one who could be used at this time! Therefore, the king of Yanshan was ordered to lead 50,000 ironclad troops all the way to attack the city and take back the cities we had lost! At that time, I served in front of his tent! Later, when we were about to drive the Turks out of the border, another holy decree came from the court, saying that if our army pursued it any longer, it would inevitably provoke the Turks to fight back, and that our army would go deep into the hinterland, and it would be difficult to supply food, grass and equipment in the future, and I am afraid that there would be a risk of annihilation!"

Listening to him, Zhou Yi couldn't help but sneer, "I'm afraid, this is another trick played by those relatives who are worried that after King Yanshan repels the Turks, they will take away their right to speak in the court!"

Shi Weng sighed for consecutive victories, closed his eyes and meditated, and was heartbroken!

"Why don't you know the reason for this? It's just that His Majesty the Emperor has always been suspicious, and both my father and the king of Yanshan retreated in the slander of their relatives, if it was the king of Yanshan who did not retreat, then he just fell into the trap set by them, and then I will fight inwardly, and the Turks will once again take advantage of the situation, and the territory that our soldiers have exchanged for blood and sweat is bound to be lost!"

"Then what, have you retreated?" Wu Xin couldn't help but ask.

"Even though we suffered heavy casualties at that time, none of the officers and soldiers of the three armies advocated retreating, but the king of Yanshan was in Akagi, and my father returned with letters, so he decided to let us stand in the army, and he asked to return to the court alone. The king of Yanshan has a son named Dongguo Lie......" Speaking of this person, Shi Weng's old face suddenly filled with a smile, "He is also my best friend, he came to me and said that if he could not defeat the Turkic army, the king of Yanshan would be responsible after he returned, saying that he raised the enemy and pretended to be a back road for himself to lead the army." ”

Zhou Yi nodded and said: "What this Dongguo senior said is reasonable, in that case, the 50,000 ironclad army has been seriously killed and wounded, and it is the world of the Turks in the north, presumably you don't have much combat power." Once the stalemate is formed, I am afraid that the mediocre emperor will really believe this charge of raising the enemy and respecting himself!"

Shi Weng sighed: "So, after that, there was a story of Ji Heng killing Ashina in a million army!"

Wu Xin's blood boiled when she heard this, and she raised her head and said: "I only heard Master say that General Yingwu repelled hundreds of thousands of Turkic troops alone, but I didn't expect that there would be these twists and turns in between!"

Shi Weng smiled slightly, "The Turkic iron cavalry is worthy of its reputation, if it weren't for our capture of the king and retreat from the enemy, that winter, I don't know how many soldiers would have died! At that time, thanks to the Guangling brothers, they burned their grain and grass from the rear, and Dongguo Lie and I were able to retreat with our whole body, you must know that the cavalry of the Turks is not in vain, since the previous Emperor Wen began they have been superficially obedient, although they have experienced some internal fighting over the years, but the wild nature that immediately ran out has not been extinguished, and it has been their long-standing dream to level the Central Plains!"

"And what happened later?" Wu Xin then asked.

"Later......" Shi Weng's smiling face sank immediately, and his sad eyes revealed endless hatred.

"There is a Turkic strategist, whose Han name is Li Xuan, and the appearance of this person has changed the good situation in which we have the right to win......
