Legend of the Heroes of the Southern Kingdom

Chapter 438
The two sides stalemate at the upper and lower sections of the hillside. The Xixia soldiers at the foot of the mountain circled back and forth on the hillside. Although the Xixia soldiers had sharp eyes and guarded against the boulders falling out of thin air, the casualties were smaller, but they survived The boulder, but Li Wenxuan's long sword, is unstoppable, and he still can't even take half a step up the mountain.

And Li Wenxuan only defended at the dangerous pass, even if he fought close to him, he would never go down the mountain for more than fifty steps, even if he turned back, even if the Xixia soldiers wanted to lay an ambush at the bottom of the mountain, they would have no chance, so it was hard for both sides to gain anything , when the sky was getting dark, the mountain road was already rugged, and it was even more difficult to walk in the night. If you were not careful, you would be in danger of falling to your death. Stationed at the foot of the mountain, Li Wenxuan was exhausted after guarding for a long time, so he went back to the small shack to rest, but from time to time, he would still send seven or eight stones to the Xixia camp under the cliff. Any unlucky person who happened to meet him would definitely die in a daze. Xixia soldiers felt anxious all night, but few people could sleep peacefully.

Nothing happened all night, Li Wenxuan and Mingzhu hid in the hut. Although the mountain was cold, both of them were martial arts practitioners. With food and drink, they didn't feel hard to bear. On the contrary, they were very sweet when they loved each other. The only regret is that Mingzhu's injury has not healed. Facing the lively and active Mingzhu, it made Li Wenxuan worry a lot, especially Mingzhu is not as reserved as the Central Plains woman. It is only natural to be intimate with Li Wenxuan, but this will do Li Wenxuan a disgrace. It is not easy to suppress the passion in his heart overnight.

The next day when it was just dawn, Li Wenxuan looked down the mountain, but he saw that the Xixia soldiers at the bottom of the mountain had withdrawn their tents thirty feet away at some point, it seems that the flying rocks that fell from the sky did not cause them much hardship head.Looking at the back mountain, the Xixia soldiers had already gathered a lot of people under the hillside. I don't know what the Xixia soldiers will do today. Although there was no danger yesterday, Li Wenxuan did not dare to neglect now.

The two roasted the blackbirds they caught yesterday, and Li Wenxuan touched some dry food on the Xixia soldiers on the uphill again. Li Wenxuan couldn't help practicing fists and kicks on the high platform. At first Li Wenxuan was very worried, but later he was relieved. Seeing Mingzhu's expression, the arrow wound on his body has indeed healed a lot. It is estimated that the two will persist on this mountain. In a few days, you can find an opportunity to go down the mountain with Mingzhu to break through.

Li Wenxuan was looking at Mingzhu's figure in a daze, when he suddenly heard someone shouting loudly from the hillside behind: "The special envoy of Western Xia, Su Da Awang, begged to see Princess Yilan!"

"Special envoy of Xixia?" Li Wenxuan muttered, and then looked at Mingzhu. Both of them had the same thought. Since the Xixia people believe that Mingzhu is Princess Yilan, it seems that Princess Yilan must not have fallen into the hands of the Xixia people. Both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the good news, and then Li Wenxuan asked, "This Xixia man came to see us early in the morning. I don't know what his intention is. Do you think we will see or not?"

Mingzhu straightened her clothes, sat beside Li Wenxuan, and said very obediently: "I will listen to you!"

Li Wenxuan lightly brushed Mingzhu's hair, and said: "Then I will meet him, but..." Hehe smiled, and said: "Since you are a princess, you are not something these guys can see. I’m the general who will send you off.”

Mingzhu pursed her lips into a smile, knowing that Li Wenxuan was afraid that the Xixia people would spot her, so she told her, "Be careful, don't be polite to them!" Then she returned to the shack, but her big eyes that were gliding around It was hiding behind a crevice in the stone, constantly peeking out, Li Wenxuan shook his head, seeing Mingzhu's application, she was just a naughty little girl.

Li Wenxuan looked down, and saw that there was indeed a Xixia man on the hillside, without any entourage, and there was no other ambushes nearby. He went up the mountain alone, but he was a bit courageous. In the past, Li Wenxuan was considered a gentleman, but this After being tortured by the Xixia soldiers for two days, he was full of anger, so he said loudly: "The Xixia people below, come up!"

The Xixia special envoy named Suda Ngawang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the people above to be so rude, although he was a hundred reluctant, but the mission was, he still walked up.

Li Wenxuan sat down on a big rock aggressively, watched the Xixia man come up, turned to him diagonally, and ignored him, just looked down the cliff by himself, as if there was no such person around him at all.

The Xixia special envoy also knew that in the battle yesterday, the person in front of him lost countless lives of Xixia soldiers. He said in one breath: "Excuse me, general, where is Princess Yilan? I was ordered to come and discuss matters with Princess Yilan!"

Li Wenxuan snorted softly, and retorted: "What kind of thing are you? Is Princess Yilan something you can meet just by meeting?"

"You!" This Xixia special envoy is also a military attache in the army. He fought on the hillside several times yesterday, and the Xixia soldiers suffered a lot of damage but did not take advantage of it. Su Da Awang was forced to take on such an errand as a special envoy. He was usually not very good-tempered, and this errand made him even more angry. Turning around suddenly, an inexplicable cold light flashed past, cutting a big rock in front of his feet into two pieces. Even though the two were close at hand, the way Li Wenxuan used his sword could not tolerate it at all. He could see clearly, but he knew in his heart that Li Wenxuan's sword could break both of his legs if he penetrated a few inches.Immediately a burst of cold sweat broke out from his back, the special envoy had no choice but to swallow back the words he was about to curse just now, and did not dare to say more.

Li Wenxuan pointed to the large rock that had been cut open and said, "Please sit down!"

Su Da Awang gritted his teeth and sat down, his butt felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles, but his eyes were always fixed on the Qingshuang Sword on Li Wenxuan's waist, for fear that Li Wenxuan would make a move suddenly. His whole body was stained with blood, and his expression was awe-inspiring, standing in front of him like a god of killing. The more he was like this, the more uneasy he felt, and he couldn't help saying: "The two armies are at war, so don't behead them!"

Li Wenxuan sneered, ignored him, and then said: "What are you doing here, the princess is still resting, and I don't have time to see you, you say the same as me!"

Suda Awang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The mountain has been heavily surrounded by our troops. As long as the princess is willing to go down the mountain, don't make unnecessary resistance on this mountain. Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will definitely treat the princess with respect." Treat each other." Looking at Li Wenxuan's expression, he didn't see any joy or anger, and said: "All the passages down the mountain have been sealed, if someone breaks out from the mountain, all arrows will be fired at that time, I'm afraid it will inevitably hurt the princess. Yuti, please think twice, the princess and the general."

Li Wenxuan smiled and said: "Really? But in my opinion, you don't seem to be able to go up this mountain now. I am very happy here, and the princess is also very comfortable. We don't plan to go down for a while, this one Please come back, Mr. Special Envoy!"

"General!" Suda Awang was a little impatient, stood up and said: "General! I advise you not to be obsessed with your obsession. Although you can defend for a while by relying on natural dangers, you will be caught without a fight in the long run. In my opinion, instead of Waiting for death, it is better to dedicate the princess to my Xixia prince. Although the general has hurt my Xixia warriors countless times, but the Xixia prince is magnanimous and kind, everything can be forgotten, and the general has the courage of all wrongdoers. As long as the general abandons the dark and turns to the light, I can guarantee the prince I will definitely look at the general with admiration, adding an official title will definitely not be worse than Jin Guo's treatment of the general, and the glory and wealth will be endless!"

"Hahaha!" Li Wenxuan stood up, laughed loudly, and then turned around abruptly, his eyes full of murderous intent, forcing Su Da Awang to take a few steps back, and involuntarily pulled out the saber from his waist.

Li Wenxuan stepped forward slowly, ignoring the conditions proposed by Su Da Awang, but asked as he walked: "Let me ask you, why did your Xixia prince kidnap Princess Yilan?"

Su Da Ngawang held the steel knife tightly in his hand, and shouted: "What do you want to do? The two armies are at war, do not kill them! This is the rule!"

Li Wenxuan scolded: "Bullshit! Don't kill me? Is this your reasoning? Why can't you think of reasoning when you set up an ambush to surround and kill my soldiers? Now I will tell you these rules with me. , I have no office, no position, no rank, no rank! What you say doesn’t matter to me, if I want to kill you, I will kill you, but I want to see who can win me!”

Su Da Awang saw that the situation was not good, the man in front of him seemed to be red-eyed, and wanted to kill himself, the envoy, and immediately turned his head and was about to rush down the hillside, but what he never expected was that, Before, Li Wenxuan was clearly in front of him, but when he turned around and just took two steps, Li Wenxuan unexpectedly blocked him, and the two almost collided.As for how Li Wenxuan suddenly appeared in front of him, he didn't notice it at all, and even couldn't help turning his head to look at the place where Li Wenxuan was standing before, to see if it was one person or two people, how could there be such a weird thing? Physical skills, of course, Li Wenxuan only has one, and what he sees can only be one person.

Su Da Awang was terrified, he raised his saber and slashed at Li Wenxuan, Li Wenxuan didn't move his sword, he raised his right hand and pinched the middle of his steel saber, with a little force from his fingers, he broke his steel saber in two , and then swung it downwards, and the severed blade pierced into his feet. Suda Ngawang let out a cry of pain, and fell on his back to the ground.

Li Wenxuan was not polite either, picked up his collar, lifted him up and put him down on the high platform, and said, "Let me ask you again, why did Prince Xixia want to kidnap Princess Yilan?"

Su Da Awang was sweating coldly, but he still refused to speak. Normally, even though Li Wenxuan was used to seeing swords and blood on the battlefield, he was not a cruel and ruthless person. Now that the 2000 people under him are besieged and killed by them, this evil spirit is stuck in their hearts, and their blood is surging, and they will not be polite to him at all. They stepped on Suda Ngawang's wound, and slowly rubbed their toes vigorously. , Said fiercely: "You say you don't say it!"

Su Da Ngawang was also stubborn, his face turned pale, and he was trembling with pain, but he still kept silent. Li Wenxuan saw that this trick would not work, and was thinking about how to extract a confession. Said: "I don't know if he is afraid of being smashed to pieces from this cliff?"

Hearing this, Su Da Ngawang trembled, his face turned green immediately, and just about to open his mouth to shout, Li Wenxuan grabbed him and threw him down the cliff.

Su Da Awang hung in the air all over his body, let out a heart-piercing roar, and thought that he would really be smashed to pieces in a short time, but just before he fell two feet, he felt his neck tightened, and after a long time, he opened his arms At present, his feet are still empty, but Li Wenxuan is climbing on the cliff with one hand, and he has already grabbed his collar with the other, dragging his falling figure in mid-air.

When Suda Awang returned to the high platform, his whole body was already limp, and he was directly fatigued on the ground, and his crotch was also wet. The false alarm just now had given this rather stubborn military officer to the ground. I peed my pants in fright.

Li Wenxuan was about to ask again, but Su Da Ngawang was honest this time, and said timidly in advance: "I...I said..."

"I, Xixia, got the news that the Kingdom of Jin will attack Song Dynasty within a few months..."

"What!" Li Wenxuan originally wanted to hear him talk about the entanglement between Xixia and the Kingdom of Jin, but unexpectedly, the first sentence said that the war between Song and Jin had started again. How could Li Wenxuan not be surprised?

In the eyes of Su Da Ngawang, Li Wenxuan was a general of the Kingdom of Jin. He didn't expect Li Wenxuan to have such a big reaction after hearing such a sentence. Mingzhu knocked over something.

Li Wenxuan was struck by a heavy thunder, several thoughts quickly turned in his mind, Song and Jin fought for years, although half of the country is still in the hands of the Jin, but Li Wenxuan has seen the blood-stained city on the battlefield with his own eyes, and he really does not want to see the flames of war Reignition, now it is hard to discuss together for the time being, but the war is starting again. It is impossible to say how many people of the Song Dynasty will suffer from the Holy Spirit. I have been living in Jin Wushu's mansion all the time, and I didn't even notice the news of the resurgence of the war. Thinking about it, I am afraid that everyone is hiding it from me, and I am still staying there these days happily. It's really ridiculous, but Mingzhu has never mentioned these things to herself. If she doesn't know it's fine, if she knows it and deliberately hides it from herself... Li Wenxuan didn't continue to think about it, but felt a dull pain in his heart and felt tired Extremely, sighed: "You continue to talk."

Seeing Li Wenxuan's strange expression, Su Da Awang couldn't guess what Li Wenxuan had experienced no matter what he thought, so he could only continue to say: "It is said that Marshal Jin Wushu of the Jin Kingdom will use the best of the country this time to compete with the Great Song Dynasty. In the First World War, Jiangnan will be destroyed in one fell swoop. According to my counselors in Xixia, the Jiangnan court of Song Dynasty may be difficult to keep this time. If Song Dynasty falls, the next target of Jin Kingdom may be our Xixia, so... Therefore, we want to act first and take Princess Yilan as a hostage. The Crown Prince should take the initiative to take Princess Yilan as a hostage. The machine cut off the thoughts of the main peace faction in the DPRK, and then we can only fight to the death with the Kingdom of Jin."

"Oh! So that's how it is." Li Wenxuan sighed. At first, he saw that Su Da Awang wanted to kill him, but now he said that Xixia's move was also a measure of self-protection. From the perspective of Xixia Kingdom Well, it is not wrong for the prince to act like this. Li Wenxuan's mind was in a mess, and he didn't want to ask him anything else, and said: "I won't kill you, you go!"

"You let me go?" Su Da Awang didn't seem to believe it, but seeing Li Wenxuan's expression dying, it seemed that he really didn't intend to leave him behind. He immediately turned over and retreated downwards regardless of the pain on his feet. Unexpectedly, he just left Within two steps, I heard a coquettish shout from behind: "Stop!"

Suda Awang was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't dare to move again. He saw a woman in a red robe walking out from a shack not far away. Although her face was covered by a silk scarf, she couldn't see clearly, but in Suda Awang's view, This woman is undoubtedly Princess Yilan, she saluted immediately and said: "I have seen Princess Yilan!"

But Mingzhu didn't look at him, she shook her lips tightly, her gaze was on Li Wenxuan, she knew what it meant for Song and Jin to go to war again, and Li Wenxuan's appearance at this time, if he thought he was deceived by himself these days, it would How can the misunderstanding be resolved?

Mingzhu didn't care about Suda Awang, she walked straight to Li Wenxuan, snuggled up to him, and whispered: "Li Lang, I... I don't know, trust me, I really don't know about this!"

Li Wenxuan sighed and said, "I believe you!"

"Li Lang! Do you really believe me? I am a golden man!" Mingzhu whispered, her tears fell, and she fell on Li Wenxuan's lap, her shoulders constantly heaving.

Li Wenxuan gently stroked her back and said, "As long as you say you don't know, I will believe you, don't cry."

Mingzhu wiped away her tears, then pointed to Suda Ngawang and said, "Let me ask him a few words, okay?"

Li Wenxuan nodded slightly, Mingzhu leaned her cheek on Li Wenxuan's shoulder again, then turned to Su Da Awang, and said coldly: "You want me to go down the mountain, I can promise you!"

"What?" Su Da Awang was dumbfounded when he saw the behavior of this fake "princess" of the Kingdom of Jin and Li Wenxuan. Even if he was killed, he couldn't figure out that the married princess of the Kingdom of Jin and the general who sent off her relatives would actually be together. The flirtatious, still in front of his face, this is really unacceptable, even Mingzhu said that she would go down the mountain with him, she was stunned for a long time before she realized it, but before he could be happy, she listened to Mingzhu. Then he said: "But I have one condition!"

Su Da Awang hurriedly said: "If Her Royal Highness has any request from our Prince Xixia, we will do our best to meet it. Our trip is for the stability of our family and country, and we have no intention of offending the princess herself!"

Mingzhu glanced at him contemptuously, and said, "I want to send a letter to Brother Huang, can you do it?"
