Ni Chu

Chapter 51 Unexpected

"Where are we going?" Mengsu trotted a few steps after Xiang Ye, walking side by side with him and asked.

"Cross the river!" Xiang Ye didn't look back at Mengsu, his eyes were fixed on the riverbed of the Yellow River, he wanted to find a place where the current was calm, and he had better find a boat to take them to the other side of the river.

After walking two or three miles upstream, the river channel became narrower and the water flow became more and more turbulent. Xiang Ye stood on the bank, frowning and looking at the surging river, but he couldn't do anything for a while.

"The current is very fast and there is no ferry, how can we get there?" Meng Su stood behind Xiang Ye, looking at the river with some worry, the rolling river was rushing and pouring downstream, very imposing, if this kind of scene was seen by literati and poets , there will surely be a few more swan songs that have been handed down through the ages.

But Xiang Ye and Meng Su are not literati, what they want to do most now is to cross the Yellow River and leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.

"I have a way to cross the river." Just as Xiang Ye and Meng Su were looking at the river at their wit's end, a voice came from behind them.

Xiang Ye frowned, and cursed inwardly, the bank of the Yellow River seemed to be a place where pursuers from all walks of life gathered. First, Xin Nong came out and said something strange, and then Zhao Tong led them to tie them up. , this meeting was worrying about how to cross the river, and another person came behind him.

The two of them put their hands on the scabbard of the long sword and turned around slowly. When they saw the person walking from behind, they breathed a long sigh of relief.

Li Feng, Li You's number one swordsman, was dressed in white, with a smile on his face, and walked towards Xiang Ye and the others calmly.

"The river here is narrow, and there is no way to have a ferry." After approaching the two of them, Li Feng said to them: "Going up for more than ten miles from here, the river is wider and the water flow is gentler. I have seen it there. Transition ship, we can go through there."

"Mr. Li, why are you here?" Seeing Li Feng, Meng Su was very surprised. Li Feng was supposed to protect Li You in Xingyang, so she was very puzzled to appear here.

"After the two of you left, the Lord Magistrate was always worried and asked me to follow you all the way. You two are really not easy. You dare to kill even members of the Guan family outside the pass. Hehe, and you still killed Guan in such a cruel way. Yijian, I am really worried about your future."

"Guan outside Guan?" Meng Su frowned and looked at Li Feng in confusion. She had never heard of the existence of this force, and she was even more confused about Guan Yijian's background.

Li Feng glanced at Mengsu and said: "Last year the Xiongnu Maodun Shanyu came to the throne. Maodun had great ambitions and coveted the Great Qin for a long time. The surname of the Central Plains entered Guanzhong and collected all kinds of information in order to regain the territory in a large scale in the future. After entering the land of the Qin people, this Xiongnu was surnamed Guan. Their principal was named Guan Mu. The master died under his sword, and Guan Yijian is Guan Mu's direct elder brother. Although the Huns are brave and barbaric, they value blood ties very much. If their elder brother is dead, the younger brother can marry back his elder brother's woman. After the father dies, the son is likely to remarry his biological mother. As for the marriage of biological brothers and sisters, it is not uncommon. The purpose is to ensure the purity of blood. Now that you have killed Guan Yijian, Guan Mu will not let you go easily. If you fight alone, In the whole world, only Ge Nie and Xin Nong can beat him!"

"But why did they attack Mengsu?" After hearing Li Feng's introduction, Xiang Ye blurted out a sentence that he himself felt very stupid.

"Meng Su is the successor of the Great General Meng Tian. General Meng Tian led 30 Qin Jia, massacred countless Xiongnu warriors, and drove the Huns seven hundred miles north. Why don't the Huns hate him? Why don't the Huns want his ancestral temple to be wiped out? Now that the Meng family was killed and Zhao Gao was chasing after him, Guan thought of cutting off the head of the last member of the Meng family and bringing it back to Beidi to pay homage to the Hun soldiers who died under the iron heels of the Qin army." Li Feng didn't feel that Xiang Ye's question was very stupid. After patiently explaining to Xiang Ye, he waved to the two of them and said, "Let's not delay here any longer. Let's find a ferry to cross the river. There may be pursuers arriving later."

"Already have." Xiang Ye smiled wryly, and said to Li Feng: "Both Xin Nong and Zhao Tong came here before, Xin Nong didn't do anything, and Zhao Tong was beaten away by us, but General Xiang Liang's direct daughter To be thrown into the Yellow River by him, I'm afraid it will be more or less auspicious."

"Ugh!" Li Feng frowned, and said, "Xiang Liang had no children in his life, and only had one daughter under his knees. His daughter was thrown into the Yellow River, and he will definitely not let it go. I am afraid that this time the Chu army will speed up their westward march. Great Qin is in danger!"

Xiang Ye nodded, Xiang Qing's death made him angry, especially when Zhao Tong left Xiang Qing and Xiang Tong in front of Huang He, which was an unbearable humiliation for him.Xiang Ye had secretly made up his mind that Zhao Tong would die, and he would die a miserable death.

The three of them walked upstream along the river bank, Xiang Ye and Meng Su walked side by side, and their eyes would turn to the rolling river from time to time.They were very depressed, and Xiang Qing was thrown into the Yellow River, which left an indelible shadow in their hearts.

At the same time, Xiang Qing and Xiang Tong, who were lying on the stone, both spit out a lot of water, Xiang Qing woke up leisurely, but Xiang Tong was still in a coma, not knowing whether it was because of ** or drinking too much water , but the breathing gradually became more even.

Under the leadership of Li Feng, Xiang Ye and Mengsu walked for three or four miles before finding a river with relatively gentle current. The three of them looked around, but they didn't see any trace of a ferry on the bank.

Although the river here is gentle, there are rocks on both sides of the river, and there is a lot of water vapor on the river. Looking around, the view is the worst along the way. Xiang Ye doubts how any ferry boat chooses to ferry in such a bad place.

Li Feng scratched his head, frowned and said, "Two days ago I was here to see the transition ship, why is it gone now?"

While speaking, he moved closer to Xiang Ye and Mengsu, and looked at the river bed with his head.

"Be careful!" When Li Feng was three or five steps away from Mengsu, Xiang Ye threw Mengsu aside.

At the same time that he threw himself, Li Feng pulled out the dagger at his waist and stabbed directly at Mengsu's chest.

Meng Su was thrown by Xiang Ye and was taken aback. Before she could recover, she was pushed aside by Xiang Ye.The dagger stabbed by Li Feng pierced deeply into Xiang Ye's chest.

Xiang Ye used a lot of force when he jumped out, and Meng Su staggered back more than ten steps before he sat down on the jagged rocks.Kekela's stone hit her buttocks, which made her feel as if her sitting bones were about to split, making her grin and twitch in pain.

But seeing that Xiang Ye was injured, she didn't care about the pain from her ass. She pressed the rocks on the ground with her hands, jumped up, and rushed towards Li Feng.

Li Feng didn't stab Mengsu with his sword, and glared at Xiang Ye full of hatred. He pulled out the short sword from Xiang Ye's chest fiercely, and stabbed towards Xiang Ye again. He also shouted loudly: "If you can't kill Mengsu, you can take revenge for Guan Yijian!"

Just now, the sword pierced Xiang Ye's right chest a little bit higher, and the second sword Li Feng pierced towards Xiang Ye's heart fiercely.

His right chest was struck by a sword, and Xiang Ye had no ability to fight back, so he could only watch helplessly as Li Feng's sword pierced his chest.

With a crisp sound of "choking", a bright silver sword slashed in front of Xiang Ye, blocking Li Feng's sword that was stabbing at his chest, and then grabbed Xiang Ye's neckline with one hand, With a sharp jerk, he staggered back and retreated.

Xiang Ye took a few steps back in a hurry, his legs gave way, and he fell to the ground with a "puff".

"Why did you kill me?" Meng Su pointed the long sword straight at Li Feng, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked in a puzzled tone.

"Hehe." The corner of Li Feng's mouth twitched, and he said to Meng Su: "It is inevitable for me to kill you, but the ridiculous Li You asked me to escort you out of Xingyang. Originally, I planned to send Xiang Ye to Xiang Ye outside Xingyang City. Except, and then I will look for another chance to get rid of you. Unexpectedly, there was an accident that day. For some reason, Wang Li's dead men came over and tried to prevent me from beheading Xiang Ye. After Xiang Ye escaped, Guan Yi and I Jian killed those dead men, so he came up with a way of putting the cart before the horse, calling them assassins who wanted to assassinate you, haha, what's even more ridiculous is that Li You actually believed it!"

"Why did you kill me?" Meng Su asked again with a cold tone, still pointing at Li Feng with the long sword in his hand.

Behind her, Xiang Ye was lying on his back on the ground with his eyes closed tightly, his face as pale as a piece of white cloth.

Li Feng glanced behind Mengsu, pulled the corner of his mouth, and said with some contempt: "I really doubt that you Qin people are really as smart as you often say. As I said just now, Wang Li's The subordinates were killed by me and Guan Yijian, don’t you understand? My surname is Guan, and I was a Hun who entered the Great Qin under the order of the great Xiongnu Shan Yu. How could Li You regard me as a person of unknown origin? As a confidant, and because of this, you have no defense against me at all, if you hadn't underestimated Xiang Ye's determination to protect you, and his meticulous observation, I would have taken your life with that sword just now!"

Speaking of this, Li Feng shook his head and sighed: "Oh, I just thought that I would kill you here so that no one would see me so I could get away, but unfortunately I underestimated Xiang Ye. The water is steaming here, how could there be a ferry boat?" Ferry here? Presumably he saw this and became suspicious of me."

"Yes, he found something abnormal, that's why he threw me aside." Meng Su's beautiful face twitched a few times, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and he said to Li Feng: "He suffered from you for me." Sword, I have to do something for him. Today you must die, no matter whether he will live or not, you must die!"
