Chapter 140 No.18 The Deer and the Wolf Part [-]
Yanluoyuan in March, white clouds like ribbons, green everywhere.Among the blue and white wildflowers all over the mountains, large areas of bright red Niwa orchids bloom overnight.Its leaves are like feathers, and its flowers are like orchids. If you search all over Shuobei, it will only grow at the foot of Lancang Mountain.Therefore, in the Muyun Department, from the octogenarians to the children from Huangkou, everyone firmly believes that this flower is nourished by the blood of Pan Gu, and it is an auspicious flower that represents endless life.

In the sea of ​​flowers where bees and butterflies danced, Jiang Yan vaguely saw the figure of a young girl in a cloak.He was startled suddenly, and suddenly remembered that today was the day when he and Tuya got married, but he didn't know why the other party appeared here alone, so he hurried forward a few steps to hold the girl's hand.

When the girl heard footsteps behind her, she turned her head suddenly.The gold-rimmed cloak on his body also slipped off, revealing his curly long hair that was full of fire.

"Yue'er—you—how did you find me?"

The black-eyed boy was ecstatic, but he didn't move forward.He looked at the other party's blue eyes full of sorrow, and suddenly felt an indescribable guilt in his heart.

"Jiang Yan, you have thought about it, do you really want to marry that girl from Di Ren?"

Ning Yue in front of her frowned, raised her finger and pointed behind the young man.Jiang Yan hurriedly turned his head away, only to see that the grassland princess in a wedding gown had been standing not far away for a long time, also looking at him sadly:

"Jiang Yan, you promised me. Are you planning to abandon me and the entire Muyun tribe?"

"I—I'm not—you two listen to me—"

The black-eyed boy hesitated to explain, but the two girls refused to listen to what he had to say. Immediately, they stepped forward one after the other, grabbing his arms.

The young man instantly felt in a dilemma.Even after exhausting what he had learned all his life, he didn't know what else to say and how to explain it, so he closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look at any of the two girls.

Gradually, another voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Yan's ears, calling his name intermittently.Rather than saying that it was one person, it would be better to say that several people were speaking in unison.He suddenly felt that there was a voice in it that seemed familiar, and he opened his eyes suddenly, only to see two figures, a man and a woman, standing under the direct sunlight.

"Father, mother?"

The young man was taken aback for a moment, and immediately burst into tears.Although I can't see the other person's face clearly, the familiar voice that told me stories for countless nights will never be forgotten in my life.

"Yan'er, do you know that Ye Kingdom is no longer the former Ye Kingdom. If you don't marry Tuya now, how will you avenge us in the future? Who else can you use to find your sister? ?”

Mother spoke.

"But, Yue'er and I—"

"Even if that girl knew you earlier, so what? She wears your sister's necklace! For a long time, you have not only turned a blind eye and ignored her, but now you still want to go far away with her? What if She is your enemy!"

Father also asked sharply.

"No! No, how could Yue'er! Maybe she picked up the necklace, or maybe—maybe—"

Before Jiang Yan finished speaking, he saw the clusters of flowers under his feet, Ning Yue, Tu Ya, and the shadows of his father and mother disappeared in an instant.Instead, there was a thick light gray fog that covered everything, making it difficult to distinguish east and west, regardless of north and south.

In the solitude, the young man suddenly heard a man and a horse galloping towards him.In the dense fog, there was a soft sound of the iron blade being unsheathed, and then the blade pierced into the flesh, and blood gushed out.

The boy suddenly panicked and called out to his parents and companions.Yet in the grayness, he could see nothing.Suddenly, a strong Shuobei steed poked its head out of the thick fog. Its blood-red horse eyes stared straight at him as if it could see through the soul. The knife pierced through the thick fog, and a cold light flashed in the hand of the heavily armored warrior, with sticky blood still dripping from the tip of the knife!

Jiang Yan felt that his heart had almost stopped beating, and he turned his head and ran wildly.But with the sound of horseshoes behind him, he caught up easily, and the cold wind from the saber slashed directly on the back of his neck!

"what--"

With an exclamation, Jiang Yan woke up from his nightmare.The parrot kept in the cage in front of the couch was frightened, and also raised the feathers on its neck and screamed mournfully.

Jiang Yan rubbed the back of his neck that was chopped off in the dream, as if he could still feel the sharp knife that was killing the general from behind, it took a long time before he regained his breath.Turning my head, I saw the moonlight outside the tent was cold and cold, and I heard the chirping of geese.He suddenly felt that the temples beside his ears were icy cold, and when he reached out to touch them, his face was already stained with tears.

This dream on the eve of the wedding brought back memories buried deep in the young man's heart.On the vast grassland in Shuobei, he seemed to have become the helpless and weak boy in the fishing village that was attacked many years ago.The words of the parents in the dream made the scene that he didn't want to recall in the past reappear clearly in front of him, telling him not to forget.

How could he forget?
"My son-in-law—this is—"

The half-opened tent door was lifted up, and a maid poked half of her head in from the outside, looking at Jiang Yan on the couch in some panic, and asked in a low voice in Shodi.

"I'm fine. You guys just get out, and you can't come in without a summons."

The black-eyed boy just turned his back and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, and never allowed the other party to enter the account from the beginning to the end.These maids were specially sent by Tuya to take care of him in daily life and to groom and dress up for the wedding ceremony in the future.However, at this moment, Jiang Yan suddenly realized that he still resisted the matter of marriage in his heart.

"But—the sun will rise in a few hours, you'd better take a bath and change clothes in advance, my son-in-law. The water on the fire is always burning, and you can—"

"Didn't you hear what I said!"

Jiang Yan shook his head vigorously, and interrupted him with a sharp drink.But the maid at the door still didn't leave, but just stood there blankly as if a little frightened.From his eyes, the young man suddenly saw extreme fear—after all, he had just personally killed Dahehan, Tuya's elder brother, Qinna a few days ago.At this moment, in the eyes of these maids, I am afraid that I still have bleeding wounds on my body, and I am a terrifying existence like a demon.

Realizing that his tone was too harsh just now, Jiang Yan softened his voice a bit and added:
"In another half an hour. Besides—may I ask you to fetch me some pen and ink?"

The maid didn't dare to ask the other party what he wanted the pen and paper for, so she just nodded and retreated.A moment later, a thin wolf hair, together with ink that was almost equivalent to gold on the grassland, was delivered to the black-eyed boy.

Jiang Yan took out a square white cloth from under his pillow, which he tore off from the front of his gown.He licked the tip of the pen wet with ink, and began to write vigorously:
"Yue'er, Ziyin, seeing words is like meeting each other. Although I don't know where the two of you are at this time, and I don't know if you are still walking together, I hope everything is fine. I will always miss Mulu when I say goodbye. Worrying day and night. No matter who will read these texts first, please let Brother Parrot bring back the letter as soon as possible to inform the current situation. If you two are safe and sound, I should be relieved. If you are in danger and helpless, or suffer Trapped and imprisoned, I will go to help immediately..."

He was not good at words, but at this moment, there was no need to search his guts, and the words flowed out from the tip of the pen.In just a moment, the front of the white cloth has been completely covered.The black-eyed boy turned the cloth over and wanted to tell his companions more about his recent situation, but just after he wrote the word "I", the pen in his hand was hanging in the air, and it didn't fall down for a long time.

In his heart, he had imagined countless times that one day he would reunite with Ning Yue and Qi Ziyin.He lived and died several times during the two years, and he even thought that it was impossible for him to leave this wild north again.But a nightmare made the young man suddenly understand——

Now that there are powerful enemies around, no matter whether it is Mu He from the Muyun Department or Qi Shouyu from Ye Kingdom in the far south, it is impossible for him to fight against him by himself.And the only way to go south to find and rescue his companion is to marry Tuya.Only in this way can he have the opportunity to fulfill his long-cherished wish of avenging his parents.

But if she knew that she was in Yanluoyuan at the moment, the astute Ning Yue would definitely guess the ins and outs of the matter, and she would definitely guess that everything that happened was related to that Princess Shuodi with the hair all over her hair.Jiang Yan couldn't help worrying that in this way, the stubborn opponent might not contact him at all, but would take the risk of going north to find someone in person.After weighing up and down for a long time, I finally decided to say less about myself.

So the young man blew lightly to let the ink on the white cloth dry, and then carefully folded it into a bunch.The cloth is no thinner than silk, so it can only be tied to Brother Mu's back with threads.But the bird seemed to know the significance of this letter, and just let the other party fiddle with it.

Yan picked up the red-necked and green-backed parrot and walked out of the tent, watching the bird take off from the palm of his hand and turn into a small dot in the sky in the vast night.However, he just tightly held the necklace gifted by Ning Yue around his neck, looked at the ray of pure white light that had appeared under the eastern horizon, and said to the maid beside him:

"You can get hot water for me now, but don't make Her Royal Highness wait too long..."

As soon as the sun rose, the camp of Muyunbu began to be noisy.The tribesmen slaughtered cattle and sheep, and had already prepared the tributes early, and all the matters of the wedding were also arranged in an orderly manner.

The sea of ​​red flowers made of Danyu orchids outside the camp is shining brightly against the backdrop of the new sun, as if the whole Yanluoyuan is also ready for the big wedding.Yuan Ti had already ordered people to set up a wooden platform overnight in the center of the sea of ​​flowers, on which a long snow-white cashmere blanket was spread.

Families and ethnic groups who came from all over the Yanluoyuan also came in droves under the morning dew.With the lighting of bonfires everywhere, the atmosphere became more and more joyful and enthusiastic.The warm wind blows on the grassland, the milk wine is fragrant, and the aroma of beef and mutton grilled on the fruit tree spreads, which makes the index finger move.Not long after, some musicians played the melodious two-stringed qin, which attracted all the guests to sing and dance.

The wedding of the Shodi people did not have as many red tapes as the Dasheng Dynasty, but was more easy-going and festive.According to the custom, people will continue to carnival for several days and all night long.Rather than holding a wedding, it is better to say that it is a grand celebration in which the whole clan, men, women and children participate together.

At this time, Jiang Yan had also changed into a blue-coloured satin gown with a high collar and bordered with scroll-patterned brocade.On the feet are a pair of calfskin boots, the toe of the boots is rolled up, and the sides are decorated with bronzing cloud patterns.This outfit made him stand out in the all ocher brown clothes.

Under the guidance of the maid, the black-eyed boy went first to wait under the high platform in the sea of ​​flowers.The crowd on the way looked sideways at this southerner who was about to become the benefactor of the Muyun Department with a little curiosity and a little awe.Jiang Yan gradually felt a little hot on his face, and deliberately lowered his head to avoid the eyes from all directions, anxiously looking forward to the ceremony to start as soon as possible.

"The princess is here!"

Suddenly someone outside the noisy crowd shouted loudly, and Tuya, who was dressed as a bride, came out of her tent, surrounded by several maids.The eyes of the audience were instantly attracted by the bride.I saw him wearing a long red dress, with an open waistcoat covering his upper body. On the front of the waistcoat, a lifelike white deer was inlaid with precious white agate, and on the back was a deep blue wolf outlined in emerald. .

The headgear worn by girls is even more delicate and gorgeous.Under the brimmed hat decorated with auspicious knots, there are left and right symmetrical horn-style hair clips. On both sides of the hair clips, there are unusual and rare filigree hollow silver ornaments. There are more than ten strings of exquisite forehead tassels.There is also a pendant made of turquoise and silver chains under the temples.

Tuya under her costume immediately became the most shining pearl among the crowd, and she seemed to be a freshly blooming prairie flower.

Jiang Yan never thought that this girl, who usually looks inconspicuous, would seem to be a different person after dressing up.It wasn't until he was lightly pushed on the shoulder by the maid beside him that he was stunned with his mouth half open before he came back to his senses, hurriedly followed her footsteps, and climbed up the wooden platform in front of him along the wool blanket.

"I, Muyun, was blessed by the great god Pangu, and I have been multiplying and living on this grassland for thousands of years. Now Tuya, the No. 19 granddaughter of the Bakwuqin family, is about to marry Jiangyan, the northern son of Ye Kingdom. All of you are witnesses. The white deer, you are blessed to be prosperous forever; the wolf howls at the moon, and the song is perfect for a hundred years. The old witch has made a fortune auspiciously the day before yesterday, please come forward with me, two newcomers, and perform the wedding ceremony."

As Wu Zhu Shelikan from the Muyun Department said, he took the hands of the two newcomers and walked slowly to the middle of the high platform.Seeing this, Jiang Yan and Tuya were about to kneel down, worship their ancestors, and have a cup of wine.Unexpectedly, when the two of them were about to kneel down and salute with horn cups filled with milk wine, they suddenly heard someone in the crowd shout loudly:

"It has always been necessary to consult the opinions of the elders of all the elders in the family. But now that the last blood of the Bacwuqin family is about to marry a southerner, no one has come to ask the opinions of the Breu family, and even put me as a Does the old minister take it seriously?!"

The voice of the person who spoke was like a bell, every word was pleasant to the ear, and the tone was even more aggressive, immediately causing an uproar in the audience.The newcomer on the stage was bowing down halfway, and immediately raised his head to look down, but saw that it was Mu He who hadn't shown his face for a long time, and ordered the accompanying warriors to push aside the irrelevant people around him, and strode towards the high platform !
