Chapter 25 The hero is short of breath

At the end of summer and autumn, it was a little late when the sky was bright. Li Changming got up and washed up and tidied up. It was only dawn, and he thought about going to have breakfast with Chu Guangliang.

Before he approached the round table and extinguished the candlestick, he saw a piece of white snow blowing by, the wind was still, and the candlelight was dim, like ghosts haunting. Seeing this scene, Chang Ming was too late to react. Before he faced the door, he could barely dodge back, flashing in embarrassment.

I don't know who did it, but he seemed unwilling to give up, rushed to him, and struck his heart with his right palm. Chang Ming didn't dodge or dodge, but held the scabbard in one hand and the handle in the other, separating them with a horizontal knife.Unexpectedly, the man's movement was weird, his palm turned across the horizontal knife, and the sword pointed a little under Chang Ming's ribs, which made him gasp. The reaction would knock him to the ground.

Chang Ming had no choice but to let go of the horizontal knife, hold his breath, dodge sideways before exerting force on the opponent's feet, and hit the opponent's chest with his elbow.

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably fall out of the window after being hit by him, but the person stabilized his figure with just one step of shaking, Chang Ming rushed forward again, and swept the opponent's shoulder with his palm, and the opponent did not panic In a hurry, he fell backwards and entangled Chang Ming's right hand with a horizontal knife.

Hengdao is not a soft thing, but because of this, Chang Ming's arm will be strangled if he is not careful.

The two came back and forth, turned the horizontal knife half a circle on the man's face, but Chang Ming did not show any intention of withdrawing his hand and retreating timidly, but the man hesitated a little, and finally Chang Ming snatched the horizontal knife back.

Chang Ming backed up three steps with the horizontal knife in his hand, and it took some effort just now, and the pain in his ribs was even worse. This person cannot be subdued by three moves or two. If he continues like this, he may lose the opportunity and be defeated.

The man didn't come forward again, instead he heard a clear male voice scolding: "Although you have made progress, you don't care about life and death. If you don't stop just because of your brother, are you going to break your own arm?"

Chang Ming couldn't help exclaiming: "Brother?"

The night fades away, and the dawn dawns.

The man in front of him is dressed in white clothes that are as snowy as snow, he looks like a celestial being, his clothes are windless and automatic, his sleeves are wide and windy, his eyebrows are white and his hair is white, but his face is just that of a handsome man in his thirties. It can be seen that the words of Fayin are visible, and the eyes are light gray but bright in them.

Stand here quietly, independent of the world, ride the wind to Qionglou Yuyu, wave your sleeves to control thunder, lightning and wind and rain.

The senior brother Chang Ming is named Nangong Yuqi.

Regardless of his senior brother's expressionless face, Chang Ming happily asked his senior brother to sit down and boil water and tea by himself, and then told Chu Guangliang to ask for leave for himself, so that he could have a good time with his senior brother.

"I haven't seen my brother for many years, but I have traveled all over the world? Why do you think of coming to me today?"

Nangong Yuqi sized him up and said lightly: "An old man lives here, come to visit, and see you by the way."

Chang Ming sighed helplessly: "So it's not because I think of me as a junior...but does the senior have an old friend here?"

"That's right, but he doesn't know me." He touched Chang Ming's head as a comfort, and asked, "Your face is pale, is it injured?"

Yijing raised his eyes and looked at Gu Liang Yiqing who was under the hall.Perhaps no one in Ningwu knows how old she is, after all, she will always be like a 14-year-old girl, if she blinks, Yijing might be fooled by him.However, the jade hairpin on her head attracted Yijing's attention. Although she didn't look carefully, she knew that it was not an ordinary artifact. After thinking about it, Xingcheng was there, so she understood it, and nodded in agreement with Gu Liang Yiqing's leave.

Gu Liang Yiqing was sent away here, and Chu Guangliang hurried over there, saying that the Seventh Battalion Commander's old injury had recurred and he dared to ask for a day off.

"What's up with him?"

"The battalion commander said that there is no need to bother, but he has a headache and brain fever, and he can rest for a day or two."

"Send him some medicine, don't stop the medicine, the injury hasn't healed yet, don't have any more accidents."

After reprimanding Chu Guangliang, Yijing just dealt with some military affairs in Xuanwu Pavilion, and felt bored and uneasy. For some reason, when he was thinking about it, it was not because Li Changming was sick, but because of palpitations, he finally put down the brush and went to I went to my own home, called out Xiao Shengya, and said that Li Changming was sick, and asked her to go and see it with me. After all, I was the master of Xing, so it was inconvenient.

Unexpectedly, when the two of them arrived, Li Changming was chatting with Nangong Yuqi.

Chang Ming knew that his senior brother didn't like the world, and it was not convenient for him to tell Yi Jingming who Nangong Yuqi was, so he asked the cat to stay at home. Unexpectedly, his army commander came to the door, and he was a little panicked.

"What's the problem?"

"It's the army commander who came..." Chang Ming said with depression and a headache: "If he knew that I was so sick that I could still stand up, he would definitely arrest me to deal with those big and small affairs. Our army commander is such a person."

"If it's really difficult, you can just play it by ear, and brother will come to see you later."

Chang Ming said helplessly: "Brother, let's avoid it first, I will deal with it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Shengya knocked on the door and called his name, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and open the door.

Yijing saw that his complexion was not good, and everything else was as usual, but he didn't say anything, he just turned his head silently, but Xiao Shengya earnestly asked what was wrong with Chang Ming, and cooked for him himself, and brought it later.

After all, this is the army commander's son, Chang Ming hurriedly said not to dare, but Xiao Shengya smiled softly, telling him not to worry about it, and rest well, and he will come to visit later.

Unexpectedly, the pair of Junqings were sent away so easily, Li Changming closed the door and turned around, but Nangong Yuqi was still in his room, his face remained unchanged, but his eyes were full of solemnity.

"Sifu Luo Yijing?" Before Chang Ming could speak, Nangong Yuqi spoke first.

Chang Ming said in surprise: "Senior brother has been born for many years, how did you know the commander?"

"I met him more than 30 years ago. Although his appearance has changed with age, he is still recognizable."

"30 years ago?" Wasn't that when the commander of the army was young?

Nangong Yuqi said indifferently: "For me, a hundred years is nothing more than a fleeting moment. Do you care about him?"

Chang Ming didn't shy away from it, but nodded bluntly: "After all, he is my direct superior and treats me well."

Nangong Yuqi was silent for a moment, and could only say: "Chang Ming, life and death are fateful, and people's hearts are inevitable. As a brother, I don't know when he will die, but you should not be too sad at that time."

As soon as the words came out, Chang Ming froze in place, his lips parted slightly, his eyes were empty, and he felt dizzy and almost couldn't stand upright. Finally, he reluctantly said: "Senior brother... what do you mean? Is it possible that the commander... ...do you want to die by fate?"

Nangong Yuqi took two steps forward, helped him sit down at the table, and said in a low voice: "I don't know... I'm afraid his fate is like this. When I saw him back then, I saw his biological parents crying and begging the previous suzerain to save him." Although there is a way to delay him, his future is changeable and unpredictable, and I know the ancestors of the Sifulo family a hundred years ago, and the same is true."

Chang Ming hurriedly got up and asked, "But what's the reason? The commander of the army doesn't look like an ordinary person...why..."

"It's no different from ordinary people? It's just that you haven't noticed that he is a national scholar." Nangong Yuqi patted him on the back and said, "Don't ask why, his mother is worried that he is sad, and hasn't said a word for many years. , you don’t need to know.”

Chang Ming suddenly felt that a huge boulder was pressing on his chest, which was as heavy as Mount Tai, making it difficult to breathe.

Yijing and Xiao Shengya went home together, but on the way he became more and more uneasy, but he didn't know how to describe it. Even if Xiao Shengya asked him with concern, he couldn't explain why, but at this time, Guo Xiu from the Seventh Battalion was in a hurry. He hurriedly reported to the commander of the army, saying that he had something to see.

"What's the panic?"

"The lower officials accidentally saw that Lin Jiu had accepted a hundred taels of gold from the head of the Ministry of Rites. This is a big matter, and he dared not delay for fear of hurting the battalion commander, so he came here to report to the commander."

Yijing didn't care about palpitations anymore, and told Xiao Shengya to take care of Chang Ming, then led Guo Xiu away in a hurry.

Nangong Yuqi got to see his old friend, and thought about Xiao Shengya's coming, so he bid farewell to Chang Ming and left.

Xiao Shengya was indeed gentle and considerate, he would deliver medicine and meals for him, if only Chang Ming was alone, there would be no hot soup and meals when he was seriously ill, the battalion commander had passed away, and Chu Guangliang had no time, so he could only give him some leftovers in a hurry Food, but Changming has been marching for many years, so he doesn't care about eating and drinking anymore.

Although the food is delicious now, but looking at Xiao Shengya, the brother's words can't be lingering, and he is even more uneasy, so he can only force a smile.However, Xiao Shengya treated him kindly, which made him feel that he couldn't pretend to be lazy anymore, so he went out with Xiao Shengya, chatting while walking.

"Battalion Commander", Zhang Zishan hurried over and said in a panic, "The Commander will abolish Lin Jiu from his official position and drive him out of Jianhe Valley!"

Lin Jiu's begging voice had gone away, Yijing counted it carefully, and secretly sighed that it was really a big deal, a hundred taels of gold, so he asked Guo Xiu to come forward and reward him with 50 taels.

Guo Xiu hastily declined and said: "This is just a matter of the lower officials' duties, I dare not accept this reward."

Yijing's heart was full of mixed feelings for a while, and he didn't know how to speak.

Selling requires price and benefits, but now the price of asking everyone in the Seventh Battalion to sell Chang Ming is probably not gold or silver - Xing Sheng is getting more and more sophisticated.He not only recalled the day when the two of them chatted about the old days.

"You are so comfortable dealing with Zhang Yifan, you have improved a lot."

But Xingcheng smiled coldly: "Someone told me such things with the blood of my master, how could I be so ignorant to refuse?"

When Chang Ming arrived at Xuanwu Pavilion, Chu Guangliang was already waiting.

"Lin Jiu took bribes from his relatives, intending to sow dissension and make you lose a foothold. Guo Xiu noticed it in time and informed the commander. After asking the cause and effect, the commander drove him out of Jianhe Valley."

Chang Ming's heart skipped a beat.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned his head and saw that it was Guo Xiu who had come out of Xuanwu Pavilion. When he saw Chang Ming, he obediently bowed.

"Battalion Commander, don't be so polite." Guo Xiu quickly waved his hand and said, "It's Lin Jiu who neglected righteousness when he saw profit, and deserved to end up like this. Battalion Commander treats us to share blessings, distinguish right from wrong, and march properly. You should be grateful, and you don't have to either." Be polite to the subordinate."

Chang Ming breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that if Xing Sheng hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't know how difficult it would be today.

Xing Sheng is also one of the tricks, eh!
