Jinyi Night Walk

Chapter 3o9 Populus euphratica

Liu Kui's heart was beating "thumping", and his fingers trembled a little, as nervous as he saw Shanin's body for the first time, unbuttoned her clothes for the first time, and became one with her for the first time.His finger touched something hard, it was his knife, the moonlight was reflected on the window lattice, there was a faint light in the room, it was not completely dark, but he didn't know if it was because of nervousness or because his clothes were too thin, he touched it for a long time but there was nothing. Find the entrance to the pocket.

"Well, what are you doing?"

On the bed, Shanin groaned, with deep tiredness.

Liu Kui trembled, and hurriedly replied: "Oh, I... I wake up at night..."

"Well..., light on the lamp, the black lamp is blind."

"Oh, I... I'm afraid I'll wake you up..."

Guilty Liu Kui was afraid that Shaning would become suspicious, so he touched the table, tremblingly found the oil lamp, lit it up with a click, and lit the lamp.Taking a sneak peek at the bed, Shanin closed his eyes, muttered something vaguely, and turned around.Liu Kui didn't dare to touch the robe anymore, so he just put on his clothes, held the oil lamp, and walked out of the screen bravely.

The toilet is in the corner outside the screen. Liu Kui put the lamp on the table, and deliberately put it between two vases, so that the vases are blocked, and the light is darker. He stands pretendingly, and listens for no sound inside. , then tiptoed to the door, and gently opened the door bolt inch by inch.The feeling of awe he had formed towards Shanin for a long time was frightened by Shanin's words in his half-dream and half-awake state, and now he only wanted to run away.

As soon as the door opened, he closed it immediately, took a few steps away in a panic, and was blown by the cold wind, and then realized that he was only wearing clothes, and the wind was blowing bitterly, but at this time he couldn't care about anything else, he put his shoes away , and hurriedly fled to the front yard...

As soon as Liu Kui went out, Shaning got up from the bed and sat there blankly.

The matter was too urgent. After Xia Xun, Sai Hazhi and Yan Wang Zhu Di had made up their minds, they rushed to meet her first. When talking about Liu Kui, Xia Xun once again signaled her to rebel with the heart first. Not everyone has the courage to do a major event like the imperial court. Many major events in history were exposed in the hands of a certain person at a certain point, and she was told to watch her face and be cautious.

Shaning didn't take it seriously, she didn't believe Liu Kui would betray her at all, when Xia Xun said that he, Sai Hazhi, Zeng Er and others would stay around the house, she was still amused by their fuss, But beyond her expectation, he really betrayed her.Not long after the two were alone, she noticed something strange about Liu Kui.

Not out of Xia Xun's reminder, but out of a woman's intuition, Liu Kui is not a person with a deep city, and his emotions and anger are completely invisible. out?When Shanin fell asleep, although he tried to calm down, he suddenly breathed rapidly and his body turned unbearably... a kind of ominous premonition gradually enveloped her body and mind.

"Tap, tap!"

The window lattice was tapped twice, and Zeng Er's voice came from outside: "Mother, Ah Kui... Liu Kui, I've caught it."

Shaning hummed in a low voice, remained silent for a moment, and said, "I'm tired, and I won't see him. I'll use him to pass the test tomorrow, and Xia Xun will arrange everything for you."

Zeng Er answered "Yes", his figure was reflected on the window by the moonlight, and he could be seen. He bowed his waist habitually, then stopped hesitantly, and said in a worried tone: "Your Majesty?"

Shanin said indifferently: "I'm fine, once the door is closed and opened, you can bring that heartless person back to see me!"

"As ordered!"

Zeng Er's figure outside the window was like performing a shadow puppet show, his head was hit hard, and there was a sound of footsteps, and he left.

Shaning pulled up the quilt and put it on his body, still sitting like that, under the dim moonlight, there were two bright marks on his cheeks, he couldn't tell what it was...

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

In the forest outside Liujiakou, King Yan's vanguard in charge of the surprise attack had quietly ambushed, approaching the pass as close as possible, closely watching the movement of the pass, occasionally there were soldiers walking around the pass, lazily, they were already familiar with the mountains The scenery is too lazy to take a look.This side is inside the pass, although the other side is outside the pass, but the vast territory of the pass is also in the hands of Daming, and the imperial court has [-] troops stationed outside the pass, so why should they be vigilant?

Four people came up the mountain road, all dressed up as townspeople, among them were four big men working together to lift a bed board, and there was a person on the bed board, covered with a quilt, the guard who closed the bed saw it and shouted from a distance: "Stop, Stop, what are you doing?"

"Master Jun, the old man... the old man is an old family member of Liu Zongqi's mansion, do you still recognize him?"

A soldier on the top looked down at the arrow crenel, and recognized that it was indeed the old family member who often came to the gate to see Liu Zongqi, and was supported by a big man, so he smiled and said: "Aha, so it is you, our general manager Didn’t Lord Banner go to town, what are you doing here?”

Xia Xun, who was supporting the old man, pressed his short blade against his waist, and said in a low voice, "Say!"

The old man was quick-witted, stomped his feet quickly, and shouted with a crying sound: "Master Jun, something serious happened. Our master suffered from insanity last night. He talked nonsense and beat everyone he saw. In the town Several people were injured by the old man. The old man asked a few boys to help him, and then he restrained the old man. Look, isn’t this tied up? Military men, the old man is the only one in the old man’s house. This old man is so sick I can't wait, what should I do..."

After the old man finished speaking, he was half true and half false, half at Xia Xun's behest, and half out of fright, and couldn't help crying.The soldiers at the gate were both surprised and amazed when they heard this: "Crazy? Why did Master Zongqi get mad?"

Several soldiers leaned down on the top of the city and looked down. The people under the top of the city moved the door panel over, revealing Liu Kui's face. After closing a few soldiers and looking down, they couldn't help shouting: "Hurry up, hurry up, let the suspension bridge go!" , It really is Master Banner."

These soldiers had lived in peace for a long time, and seeing that the people who shouted were indeed the family members of the chief banner officer, they were unsuspecting and immediately lowered the suspension bridge. Someone rushed to inform the deputy chief banner Wang Yanxi of the news.

A few big men carried the door panels across the suspension bridge, climbed up the city gate tower, and suddenly surrounded a few guards and soldiers who were watching the fun, and saw that the person lying under the quilt was indeed Mr. Zongqi, and Mr. Zongqi glared at him round and round. He opened his eyes, his face was flushed, and the veins on his forehead were stretched out one by one, as if he was suffering from madness.A soldier saw that Master Zongqi had a rope tied around his mouth, as if he was chewing his head on a fierce horse, and he couldn't help asking curiously: "Why did you still tie Master Zongqi's mouth?"

"do not move!"

Sai Hazhi roared, making the soldier tremble in fright. Sai Hazhi quickly put on a smiling face, and said: "Master Jun, don't touch him. Once you untie the rope, this lord is going to bite someone." .Here..."

Sai Hazhi raised Zeng Er's hand, which was wrapped with a strip of white cloth, and there was blood oozing out. It was injured when Liu Kui was arrested last night. Sai Hazhi said seriously: "Did you see that? One of the fingers of the two brothers was eaten by Mr. Zongqi."

The soldier jumped when he heard that, and quickly hid far away, and said in horror: "Could it be that Mr. Zongqi is bewitched, why is he so crazy?"

"Mmhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

Liu Kui's head shook violently, and his two eyeballs were about to pop out, but he was bound tightly, so he couldn't move, Xia Xun immediately shouted: "It's not good, it's not good, Mr. Liu Crazy again..."

"General Manager Liu is crazy!"

When he heard the news just now, Vice President Wang was very surprised, and asked the soldier who reported the letter carefully, and then he jumped up ecstatically: "My grandma, I finally made it through! I think Mr. Shi When the flag was raised, it was time for Lao Tzu to be the chief flag officer. The result was good. Prince Ning’s mansion said a word, and the chief flag officer was taken over by Liu Kui who fell from the sky. Now he is crazy. Hahaha, who will still rob me, who can rob me?"

Like Fan Jinzhongju, Wang Yanxi frantically ran to the side of Liu Kui, who was glaring like a demon King Kong. Before he had time to pretend to greet him, his dream of the general flag was shattered. A knife came out, and it was straight into his stomach.

At the same time that Wang Yanxi was being stabbed, those big men started to move at the same time. They took out weapons from under the door, half of them rushed to defend the beacon tower, and the other half rushed to the other side of the gate, and chopped off the sword twice. The ropes of the suspension bridge, the suspension bridge fell to the ground with a bang, and the pioneers of the Yan army who were ambushing in the dense forest saw the suspension bridge fall, and with a shout, they rushed out wearing straw hats and coir raincoats...

The defenders were scattered, some were wandering around, some were chatting in the barracks, one of the chief and deputy chief banners was restrained and one was killed, and the Yan army suddenly rushed in from a short distance away. No countermeasures.

The greatest value of this pass is actually the signal transmission of the Beacon Tower, and now the Beacon Tower has been climbed up by a few big men first, condescending to control it, and the killing here is turned upside down, and the nearest garrison officers and soldiers at other passes are also within a few days. Ten miles away, you can't hear it at all. The Liujiakou pass... has been successfully captured!

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Populus euphratica can live for a thousand years without dying, die for a thousand years without falling, and fall for a thousand years without dying.

In later generations, it was difficult to see large areas of Populus euphratica in this area, but at this time, the Populus euphratica here is still densely forested.

In "Heroes", the scene where Zhang Manyu and Zhang Ziyi fight is in the Populus euphratica forest, the yellow leaves flying all over the sky and the golden yellow covering the sky, like a paradise on earth. The beauty, as well as the withered sadness and desolation.

At this moment, the scenery in the Populus euphratica forest is comparable.The sunlight casts down from the Populus euphratica tree, sprinkled colorfully on the thick golden poplar leaves on the ground.

Liu Kui's hands were tightly bound by cowhide ropes, and he stood pale in the forest. When the wind picked up, the leaves of Populus euphratica flying all over the sky scraped on his body and face, but he didn't dare to close his eyes a little. Looking ahead in horror, there was a horse in front of it, and immediately there was a person, dressed in white as snow, with the end of the cowhide rope held in her hand.

Sha Ting looked at him quietly, his face was pale, without a trace of blood. Liu Kui wanted to kneel down on his knees several times, kowtowed to her and begged for mercy, but he knew the temper of the woman in front of him. If he dared to kneel down, she would Likely to kill him instantly with an arrow.Even if he is Liu Kui, Shaning will not allow him to insult her lover so worthless, her man must live like a man.

"If you don't want to, tell me, and I won't force you. Before taking Liujiakou, I will temporarily imprison your freedom, but I will let you go sooner or later. Why did you betray me?"

With crystal tears in his eyes, Shanin asked sadly: "You can go your own way, and I won't block you, but why did you betray me? You can use the glory and wealth you got by betraying me. ?”

"me……"

Liu Kui's lips trembled, wanting to justify and beg for mercy, but in the end, he couldn't say a word.

"Whoosh!"

A knife flashed coldly, and with a "poof", the leaves under Liu Kui's feet disappeared, and only a handle of the knife was exposed. Shaning said quietly: "Do you know that when you were groping for this knife, my heart felt so How much does it hurt?"

Liu Kui lowered his head slowly, he really had nothing to say.

"Liu Kui, what do you have? Tell me, what do you have?"

Shaning's voice became high-pitched: "In terms of talent, heaven, medicine, divination, astrology, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and hundreds of schools of thought, are you as good as King Ning Wanyi?"

"In terms of power and status, character and appearance, wealth and splendor, are you as good as Ning Wang Wanyi?"

"Liu Kui, I, Shaning, am not stupid. I know that you feel somewhat resentful towards me. I also know that you feel very unhappy when you put your family outside because of me. But, you only think about you." , have you ever thought about it for me, how much did I pay for you if I let go of being a good princess? I gave you all my heart, and you treat me like this?!"

"me……"

Liu Kui's head was almost buried in his chest, but he still couldn't speak a complete sentence.

With tears in his eyes, Shaning said in a low voice: "Do you know that when I asked you what you were doing, I was still hoping for your change of heart. At that time... as long as you put down the knife and came back to me, this matter... I will It will be treated as never knowing..., do you know..."

The wind picked up again, and the yellow leaves all over the sky, circling and dancing, lasted for a long time.

On the Liujiakou pass, Zhang Yu held Xia Xun's hand, laughed loudly and said, "Brother, you have made another remarkable achievement. Brother, I admire you more and more."

Xia Xunqian smiled and said, "My younger brother's ability to charge forward is not as good as that of elder brother Wan, so I have to work hard on the sidelines. When will Your Highness arrive?"

Zhang Yudao: "Your Highness is leading an army of tens of thousands. If you arrive here early, it will be impossible to deceive people. At this moment, His Highness is still a hundred miles away. Don't worry, I have sent someone to report to His Highness. Come with your army."

As he spoke, he looked around and asked, "Where is Princess Ning, if His Highness arrives, he should meet her."

Xia Xun said: "She is in the town at the foot of the mountain. Brother Zhang guards the mouth of Liu's house first, and I will go see the princess."

Xia Xun rushed to the bottom of the mountain, and before he entered the town through the Populus euphratica forest, he saw deep drag marks on the ground. The fallen leaves of Populus euphratica were plowed open on both sides, exposing the frozen ground, and there were some bloodstains faintly, like a giant The python tumbling through the forest crazily, Xia Xun immediately raised his vigilance, he walked forward with the heart of a sword, turned a big tree, and saw Zeng Er leading a horse, standing still in the forest.

Xia Xun breathed a sigh of relief, let go of the handle of the knife and said, "Second Brother Zeng."

Zeng Erdao: "Your Majesty has rushed back to Daning first, and your Majesty wants me to tell you that everything is according to the previous order. When His Highness King Yan invades Daning City, it is time for His Highness King Ning to fulfill the agreement, and leave!"

Zeng Er got on his horse and rode away at a gallop. The wind wrapped yellow leaves down. Xia Xun narrowed his eyes slightly. Just as he was about to turn around and walk back, his gaze inadvertently glanced at a dead Populus euphratica tree beside the road. However, it was fixed there immediately.

On the snarled and twisted branches hung a human-like thing, bloody and rotten.

Xia Xun shuddered, quickly tightened his collar, and hurried up the mountain.
