Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Small Town Adventure
"Why are you here!"
Sima Chun was surprised and delighted, and the longing after a long time was indescribable, so he hugged her tightly into his arms.
"Miss Yu sent me!"
"Miss Yu?" Sima Chun noticed another woman coming down from the behemoth, "But Miss Yu from Wuxiang Mountain?"
As he spoke, Yu Xi took a few steps forward and stopped not far from them. Sima Chun had heard Yuan Fu talk about her and Zhou Yi when he was in Huaichu, and he had already heard of her, and then looking at the monster behind her, it must be the Niansheng that the world has passed on.
Sima Chun thanked Yu Xi with his fists and asked Murong Xue to stay with her, while he rushed into the fire to save people. Although the night was dark, it could reflect the light of the fire, and his appearance could be vaguely seen, Yu Xi glanced at him, at first glance, this person actually had a bit of Zhou Yi's appearance. Yu Xi was taken aback, and a hint of joy appeared between her eyebrows, but when the building was empty, the smile on her face was fleeting, followed by the envy of the handsome man and the beautiful woman in front of her, and the lament of her own miserable experience!
After a while, Sima Chun still didn't come out, and Murong Xue was so anxious that tears appeared in her eyes. The Turkic general over there ordered the soldiers to come and arrest people, and Yu Xi wanted to appease Murong Xue and prevent the Turkic soldiers from killing the people who came to fight the fire, and he was busy for a while. Fortunately, Niansheng was able to take charge alone, and neither the Turkic generals nor the soldiers dared to approach, so she was not in danger for the time being.
The fire had been burning for a long time, and from the outside of the door, several beams in the store had collapsed, and Murong Xue burst into tears, crying and shouting to go in to save Sima Chun. Yu Xi suddenly remembered that Niansheng was not afraid of fire, it was born with a body of steel, and it was naturally not afraid of fire calcination. So, he summoned it back and motioned for it to go to the store to rescue the man just now. Nian Sheng was quite human, and first turned back to level the remaining few Turkic soldiers, and then ran into the raging fire.
There is little rain in that area every winter, and the northern wilderness is dry and dry, so once the fire is ignited, it spreads along the north wind and burns the entire street. At that time, the Turkic soldiers were killed and wounded innumerably, and the general also saw the power of Nian Sheng, and hurriedly ordered the withdrawal of the army, so the people rushed over to put out the fire.
Yu Xi and Murong Xue were waiting anxiously at the door, when suddenly there was a loud noise, and the entire second floor of the wine shop collapsed! People were exclaiming, only to see Nian Sheng rushing out of the sky, rushing out of the window on the second floor that was about to fall, and there was a person lying on its back, it was Sima Chun, Sima Chun slowly raised his head, and a girl's face leaked out of his arms.
Everyone cheered in unison, and the shopkeeper even knelt on the ground to kowtow to him, Sima Chun looked tired, raised his eyebrows, and saw that Murong Xue had collapsed on the ground!
At that moment, Yu Xi drove Nian Sheng and rescued the trapped people on the left and right before the fire spread further! The people knelt down one after another to thank them, and some offered wine and food to entertain them.
After settling the neighbors properly, Yu Xi came to say goodbye to the two.
Sima Chunzheng had many questions, and before she could speak, she was in such a hurry to leave, so she persuaded: "It's already late at night, and the girl is not in a hurry to leave." Let's wait for dawn. ”
Yu Xi said: "The day before yesterday, we had already killed a few Turkic soldiers, but unfortunately we didn't eradicate the roots, so we had such a disaster today." The people are innocent, and if these people are allowed to escape today, the people here will not be able to survive in the future!"
Only then did Sima Chun understand that the Turks were so enthusiastic that they were actually looking for Yu Xi to take revenge, "I'll go with you!"
"No need, you better stay and take good care of Sister Murong! With Niansheng following, I am completely sure of dealing with those thieves!"
Murong Xue looked sad, and knew that she couldn't stay, so she took off her windbreaker and put it on her, and advised: "Thanks to you for taking care of you all the way, you have to be careful alone, that group of people is too vicious, I'm afraid you ......"
Yu Xi smiled, his eyes flashed with bright firelight, "Sister, don't worry, you and Sima Gongzi will go to the capital, and when you come back from the capital, remember to come to Wuxiang Mountain to see me......"
After that, the slender body was followed by a huge Niansheng, facing the cold night wind, silently disappearing into the night.
"Do you think she has something on her mind?" Sima Chun glanced back at Murong Xue and asked in a low tone.
"There is a person hidden in her heart, because she hides it too deeply, so she is also confused about whether there is such a person in her heart!" Murong Xue lowered her head and sighed, thinking of what she had seen and felt when she was with Yu Xi in the past few days, and she couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
Sima Chun was taken aback, and his face was surprised, "How did you know?"
Murong Xue smiled helplessly: "A woman's intuition. I have something written on my face, but she will bury it deep in her heart. On the surface, she seems to be very strong, but in fact, no one can understand the pain in her heart! She is reluctant to complain because she has not met the person he can confide in. ”
"What about you? I don't want you to hide anything in your heart!"
Murong Xue looked up at the night sky, winked at the stars in the sky, and a shallow smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "With you with me, I don't know how much I feel bitter no matter how many grievances I suffer, but there is a different person." She looked at Sima Chun's face and paused slightly, "She has buried everything she has in order to save you!"
Sima Chun was stunned, and many Zoroastrian ancestors suddenly appeared in his heart.
Murong Xue's eyes turned tactfully, and she muttered again: "She is so willful, she did not hesitate to turn against her father for the sake of you, and even gave up her freedom! Maybe I can do this, but I ...... But I can't be like her, watching my beloved wander the world with another woman......"
Sima Chun was silent by default, and his heart was tumbling like waves. The woman under Murong Xueyan is none other than Sima Yan, the only daughter of his second uncle. Two years ago, his family was ruined, and he was inexplicably saddled with the notoriety of killing his father. At that time, he was desperate and just wanted to apologize with death, but Sima Yan tried his best to help him out of the siege and inspire him to avenge the dead. Sima Chun's fighting spirit was deeply touched by her, so she went through life and death, fled from the Western Regions to Changsha, and then had today's situation.
"You have a deep blood feud, not only can I not help you, but I make trouble for you everywhere, compared to her, I am already ashamed, how can I have anything to complain about?"
Sima Chun clenched her hands tightly and found that her hands were cold, "I'll talk about these things later, your hands are cold, let's find a place to rest for one night first, and then go to the capital tomorrow." After waiting for these chores, I will take you back to Zoroastrianism. ”
"My hands are cold, but my heart is hot! Brother Chun, where you are in the future, I will follow you wherever you are!"
Sima Chun's cold face was suddenly filled with a warm smile, "By the way, I was about to ask you, how did you get with Miss Yu?
Murong Xue pursed her lips and smiled playfully, "I've been in Baihe Mountain for so long, and I don't know anyone, so I'm really bored, so I want to come to you alone...... But fortunately, I met Yu Xi at the foot of Baihe Mountain, she was so nice, she said that I was in danger alone, so she took me to Kanto to find you. ”
"And then, how did you provoke the Turks?"
"We met Mrs. Zhou and them in Shanhaiguan, and she said that you went to the capital, and we came all the way. It's unbelievable to say, Niansheng's foot strength is amazing, it only took us two days to get from Shanhaiguan to the capital! However, we didn't meet you all the way, so we went back the same way. When passing by this town the day before yesterday, Yu Xi saw that there were Turkic soldiers killing and robbing, so he simply held on to it......"
"That strange general kept saying that someone had killed the Turkic soldiers, but I didn't expect it to be you. This Yu Guangniang is happy to be revenged, but she is a lover, it seems that Brother Zhou Yi owes her in this life can't pay it off!" Sima Chun said this, and remembered his cousin mentioned by Murong Xue just now, and felt very inappropriate at this time, so he took her to another inn to stay.
Murong Xue saw through his thoughts, and no longer pressed to ask, but turned the topic to Zhou Yi and asked, "You mean, the person who lived up to Yu Xi is the sworn brother who is too good to be in your mouth?"
"What you say is weird, what do you mean that you are too good to say! Brother Zhou is famous, and I didn't deliberately compliment him. Sima Chun said lightly: "Not only me, but also Yuan Fu and Brother Dongguo, these are all heroes who are willing to work hard for him!"
Murong Xue refuted disapprenousively: "Since he is a handsome young man who is admired by everyone, why do you want such a kind woman to be sad for him? As you said, I know that it is difficult to repay the love owed to her, but I still don't know how to cherish it, where are all the good men in this world hiding!"
As soon as the words fell, I remembered that I was in front of Sima Chun at this time, and I felt abrupt again, so I hurriedly covered my mouth with my hand, and then sighed again.
Sima Chun said: "You and I are just outsiders, no one has his own secrets, who knows if Zhou Yi already has someone else in his heart? You know, Wu Xin gave her her life hard, this love is not ......" Speaking of this, he suddenly felt that it could be mapped to the relationship between him and Sima Yan, and he was very depressed. He didn't mention them again, and stayed at the inn for the night.
Early the next morning, the two hurriedly got on the road, and before leaving, the shopkeeper left a letter for Yu Xi, saying that when she came back from the capital, he would go to Wuxiang Mountain to visit her.
Because Murong Xue was unbearable to run around and had many minor illnesses on the road, the two of them went to the capital after a month. At that time, it was close to the end of the year, and not long after Zhou Yi went to Taiji Mountain, Sima Chun was in a hurry to go to the General's Mansion to find him as soon as he arrived in the capital.
However, Murong Xue was inconvenienced, so Sima Chun wanted to find an inn to settle her temporarily. As soon as the two of them arrived at the door of an inn, they suddenly heard someone shouting, "Brother Sima!"
