Chapter 2 Accompaniment
The heavy rain that lasted for three days finally stopped, and a cold wind blew, blowing the broken flag with the word 'Qin' written on it. On the battlefield where the bones are like mountains, there is a foul smell from time to time. Although it was washed away by three days of heavy rain, the strong smell of blood still made people feel sick.
As soon as the sky cleared, the crows, who did not know where to hide, flew out and pounced on the door of the deceased. Curiously glancing at the dead man's wide eyes, and when he confirmed that they no longer belonged to a living person, he suddenly stretched out his long, hard beak and pulled the eyeball out of the deceased's face.
"Lingyun, is it here?" saw the two of them cowering on the chaotic battlefield, looking for something, and one of them asked.
"You can't be wrong, that's where we met him. Look at ......," said the other confidently, and the man who had fallen to the ground had a smug look on his face.
The other heard him say this, and looked at him. Sure enough, one of them fell to the ground, and it was not difficult to find his painful expression on his sideways face.
These two people were Ling Yun and Qi Feng, who were looking for their belongings in the pile of corpses before. When Qi Feng saw the general, he was afraid that if he delayed for a while, the man would return to the west. I didn't care about that much, so I wanted to go forward and see what was going on.
Ling Yun saw him so reckless, lest something go wrong. Pulling Qi Feng, who was about to step forward, he casually pulled out a spear from his side, and stretched out to the general in a cower.
Seeing him like this, Qi Feng was angry. The man lay motionless on the ground, but he tried it with his spear, and cried out, "What are you doing, you are still like this." If you're afraid of death, you can stay away!" After speaking, he snatched the spear from Ling Yun's hand, threw it aside, and hurriedly ran towards the man who fell to the ground.
He has been hiding behind Ling Yun since he was a child, how can he know that the people on the rivers and lakes are sinister. At this time, he only cared about the life and death of that person, where would he care about his own safety. Ling Yun was slightly more stable than him, and he saw that there were often people on the rivers and lakes who cheated to death in order to protect themselves. The two of them spoke so loudly, but the man did not react. When I had doubts, I wanted to test it. I didn't know that Qi Feng didn't know that he was working hard, so he scolded himself with his head and face.
I was feeling annoyed in my heart, and suddenly felt that this matter was very inappropriate, and hurriedly stopped Qi Feng. Qi Feng was willing to listen to him, and walked towards the general on his own.
Suddenly, there was a sound of the blade unsheathed, and Qi Feng stopped when he was two steps away from the man. It's not so much a stop, but a fear. For a sword was already in his neck, and if he hadn't stopped his foot, it would have pierced him in the throat.
Seeing this, Ling Yun was stunned and stood there fixedly, lest a slight movement of his own might cause the man to cut off Qi Feng's head. He secretly scolded Qi Feng thousands of times in his heart, but he was still worried that he would be hurt by that person.
"Don't ...... Other...... Don't get me wrong, we don't mean it badly!" Qi Feng saw that the man was looking at him viciously, and waved his hand again and again to explain.
The man snorted coldly, and he wanted to pick up his sword and cut off Qi Feng's head as a tribute to the dead brothers.
Qi Feng saw his cold eyes and knew what he was thinking. But his neck was already covered by a sword, and it was impossible to escape at this moment. I secretly regretted in my heart that I shouldn't have come to save him with kindness. Seeing his incomparably fierce gaze, his heart was even more frightened.
I closed my eyes in fear, thinking of the fate of my life, all of which were running around and suffering from the eyes of the world. Fortunately, with Ling Yun by his side, there was a moment of laughter. Today, because of his kindness, he ended up in a different place. I couldn't help but think of the word 'fate' in my heart, thinking that my way of dying was not a relief.
Thinking like this, I was also a little relieved in my heart, and a sad smile appeared on my frightened face. Just wait for that person to raise the knife and fall, and from now on, he will no longer have to live in this troubled world with fear.
However, after half a ring, the sword against his neck still did not cut off his head. Out of curiosity, he slowly opened his eyes. I saw that the man also looked at him curiously, and the sword in his hand was also hanging in the air, without the slightest intention of swinging down.
"Dang!"
With a soft thud, the long sword in the man's hand fell to the ground, and the man fainted again.
"Qi Feng, are you okay?" Ling Yun saw that the man had fainted, and hurriedly rushed to Qi Feng's side and asked.
"I didn't ...... It's okay!" After only saying these two words, Qi Feng stopped talking. It's as if what happened just now isn't over.
"While he faints, let's go quickly! When he wakes up, if he does this again, I'm afraid the lives of the two of us will be lost!" Ling Yun picked up Qi Feng, who was still in a daze, and wanted to take him away from the place of right and wrong. Although he was dissatisfied with Qi Feng in his heart, the two of them had relied on each other since childhood, so how could they leave him here alone. And for the rewards that I thought of earlier, I had no interest in it. Compared with those gold and silver jewelry, it is still more precious to one's own life.
While he was busy, he suddenly grabbed Ling Yun's left shoulder with a hand. Ling Yun broke out in a cold sweat and looked back at the man with a suspicious expression.
"Lingyun!" Qi Feng said firmly.
Listening to Qi Feng's words, Ling Yun came to his senses, and the hand holding him was Qi Feng's. He scolded, "Ouch, you're trying to scare me to death." I don't know if people are scary, they can scare people to death!"
To his surprise, this time he even said a few words of 'death', and Qi Feng didn't have the slightest fear. Instead, he grabbed his hand and pushed it a little harder.
Qi Feng's abnormal behavior naturally aroused Ling Yun's curiosity. Looking down, he saw Qi Feng looking at the man with a firm look in his eyes, and followed his gaze to look at the man lying on the ground again. Although he was reluctant in his heart, he knew in his heart that once Qi Feng got up, it would be difficult for the eight horses to pull him back.
He shook his head, sighed slightly, and scolded: "What the! Okay, you still can't do it!"
When he woke up, he clearly felt the pain on his body, and he couldn't help but snort softly. I don't know how long I was unconscious, but I felt that my legs were already numb, and when I was about to turn around and move, I found that my hands and feet had been tied.
This discovery really surprised him. If you change to usual, this finger-thick rope can be broken with a little force. But at this time, he was seriously injured, and it was difficult to turn over, let alone break the rope. I had to dispel the idea of rebellion and lie there quietly. I secretly wondered in my heart, I don't know who it was, and tied myself up.
"I said, shouldn't we come back here? If that fat man knew that we were back, he would have to skin us?" It must have been the two boys who had palpitations, so they tied themselves up.
"Don't worry, don't you know that the most dangerous place is the safest place? He is probably looking for us everywhere now, and he never thought that we would turn back to his lair!" With that, two teenagers appeared in front of him.
These two men were the same people he had seen before, and when he saw them looking at him in horror, he did not speak, but only looked at them vigilantly.
Qi Feng was first taken aback when he saw him wake up, and then cowered and asked him about the situation.
Before he fell unconscious, he saw that the thin man had no ill will towards him, and he thought of letting him go, hoping that he could save himself. With his injuries at the time, if he really killed the two of them, although he could relieve his anger for a while, he was afraid that he would not be able to escape death. Listening to his questioning, I said 'um', and then turned my head away, and paid no more attention to what he said.
Seeing this, Qi Feng stepped forward to untie the rope on his body. Ling Yun grabbed him and shouted in a low voice, "Have you forgotten what he did to us before?" ”
"Don't worry, I won't take revenge!" said before Qi Feng could retort. It was only because of his weakness that the man began to cough after he finished speaking.
The two talked in a low voice, like a mosquito, three feet away from him, but he really listened to his conversation. When the two of them heard his answer, they were quite surprised. Neither of them has martial arts, so naturally they don't know that the facial features of people who practice martial arts are sharper than ordinary people. The two of them were so close to him that he could hear what they were talking about.
Qi Feng was afraid that his injuries would worsen due to his toss. said: "Look, he agreed. What's more, he's so weak, without us, he'd have died here. In fact, the second half of his sentence was for that person, Ling Yun naturally understood, and if he didn't stop him, he let Qi Feng remove the rope from him.
"This ...... What is this place?" asked the man, after the rope was removed.
"Shouyang, why do you ask this?" Qi Feng replied casually when he saw that he had no malicious intent. Seeing that he was not worried about his injury, but asked himself where he was first, he didn't know what he meant.
"Well, that's good. Since the two young heroes saved me, I am grateful. But as the saying goes, 'help people to the end, send Buddha to the west', and you have to send me to Luoyang, and when I get to Luoyang, I will repay the two for their rescue. The man saw that the two of them looked puzzled, and guessed that the two of them were worried about what would happen when they arrived in Luoyang, so he said: "Don't worry, you two are kind to me, and when you arrive in Luoyang, the soldiers guarding the city will treat them as guests." ”
Qi Feng just wanted to say something, but Ling Yun took the lead and said, "Hmph, looking at your clothes, you must be a former Qin general." Not to mention Luoyang, even if it is Xianyang, we brothers are not afraid to go alone. But if we send you to Luoyang, then we don't have the guts. ”
When the man heard him say this, he was suspicious and asked, "Why is this?"
Seeing the man's expression, Qi Feng was afraid that what Ling Yun said would hit him hard, so he winked again and again, signaling him not to continue. Ling Yun was already dissatisfied with him, and he was kind enough to save him, and he also pointed a sword at his brother. It was easy to rescue him from the pile of dead people, and the two of them had to follow him to death.
Ignoring Qi Feng's dissuasion, Ling Yun said with a hint of sarcasm: "Former Qin has been defeated, and now Chang'an, where your emperor is located, is in danger. If you still want to go to Luoyang, aren't you looking for death? If you let the two of you send you to Luoyang, won't you let us accompany you to die?"
"What? do you mean Xianyang has been lost?" the man fainted again after hearing him finish speaking. Xianyang is the capital of the pre-Qin period, and the capital was broken, so the situation of the pre-Qin period at this time is naturally clear at a glance.
