Rebirth of Peach Blossom

Chapter 33: Massacre

After knocking on the door for a long time, no one came to open the door. Ye Ziyu simply broke down the door violently, and all he could see was thick dust and spider webs with white silk at the corners. The people went to the building and it was empty.

Although it is very disgusting, there is no better choice right now. Ye Ziyu led Cheng Wanning and walked upstairs. Fortunately, although it is dilapidated, there are still big things like the bed, so I found a decent one. In the room, if you replace the bed with the one in the carriage, you can make it through the night.

The candle flame was flickering by the wind from the loosely closed window, and the room always had a lingering gloom. Ye Ziyu carefully stuffed the air leak with clothes, and when she turned her head, she saw Cheng Wanning seemed uneasy Sitting by the bed, I felt a little guilty, "Let's endure tonight, and I will take you to Qian'an County tomorrow, so I can have a good rest."

Cheng Wanning shook her head, smiled a little forcedly, "I'm fine, let's rest early..." Before she finished speaking, her expression suddenly changed, and she exclaimed, "Be careful!"

The shadow of the sword is like a stream of light, and the moment the person broke through the window, the sword also pointed to Ye Ziyu's heart, Ye Ziyu dodged the first time, drew out the sword to block the blow, and at the next moment, from the darkness Four sword lights were stabbed out, aiming at every vital point on Ye Ziyu's body, it was too sudden, and the people who came were all masters, with tacit cooperation, one careless, Ye Ziyu's arm was scratched bloody.

After judging the person's skill in the bottom of her heart for the first time, Ye Ziyu retreated to the window while responding, trying to lure everyone away. As long as she leaves here, Ah Ning can escape, and she is sure to escape from the pincer attack of five people!

Just when Ye Ziyu was about to break out of the window, a vague and changed voice came from the edge of the bed blocked by the man in black. Although the tone was strange, the words were clearly pronounced, "General Ye, don't you take your wife with you?" Shall we go together?"

Ye Ziyu turned his head, and suddenly attacked the man in black who was closest to him. He opened a hole and went towards Cheng Wanning's direction, ignoring the opportunity for the enemy to attack with his back wide open!The sword intent that came from behind was extremely clear with the sound of a crane-like wind, but in Ye Ziyu's eyes, there was only the red blood oozing from the sword's neck, Ah Ning, who was so angry that he seemed to be dizzy in an instant. There was only one thought left in Yu's mind——

No one can use Ah Ning to threaten her, no one can hurt Ah Ning in the slightest!

Violators, die!

Wuxin Jue is cooperating with Ye Ziyu's anger in the dantian at a high speed, the aura of the whole body is almost turned into substance, and the saber in his hand is also shaken by the aura released, and the slightest cracks appear, as if it will shatter in the next moment.

Those who blocked her around her, and those who hindered her, were all killed within ten strokes, and their skills rose sharply in a short period of time. Finally, they looked at the man in black who was holding Ah Ning hostage. , but still leaked his fear, his hands trembled unconsciously, and the bloodstain on Cheng Wanning's neck deepened.

At this moment, Ye Ziyu's eyes were also very dark. No one could clearly see how she made the move, including the man in black who had the biggest bargaining chip in his hand. He didn't even have time to respond, and his entire right arm was cut off directly. The hand holding the sword was stepped on by Ye Ziyu along with the sword.

Even if he was well-trained, the man in black couldn't help crying out in pain at this moment, while Ye Ziyu hugged the pale Cheng Wanning, watched carefully, and lightly touched the wound on his neck with his fingers. Touched lightly, but only called out the word "A Ning" full of pity, and then passed out.

And the man in black with a broken arm, calmed down after seeing the situation, glanced at Cheng Wanning who seemed to be at a loss, and walked to the window as if he didn't feel that such a lady could pose any threat. , took out the signal to release it, but at the next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes wide, and slowly turned his head, a long sword pierced behind himself, piercing through the entire heart, with great force, and the strike was extremely fierce, he slowly Looking back, eyes full of disbelief.In the end, when he fell down, he was still dead.

Cheng Wanning let go of the hand holding the sword, at this moment the door behind him suddenly opened, and a noble young man rushed in with a group of people, and said in a teasing voice, "General Ye, Ye Fu..." However, looking at the scene in front of him, the boy stopped talking before he finished speaking. The dark moonlight shone faintly on the floor of the inn, and the blood in the dark night was as strange as the black lotus of hell. Standing alone in the middle The person turned her back to them, unable to see her expression clearly, but she had an aura that was different from ordinary people, until she slowly turned her head, with a timid expression on her face, which matched her amazing face very well, as if... Feelings are just illusions.

******

When Ye Ziyu woke up, she was in the carriage, and the first thing she saw after waking up was Ah Ning who was guarding her side.The wound on his neck had already been bandaged, and his face was haggard. He held her hand tightly, leaned against the wall of the car, and fell asleep restlessly with his eyes closed, while the wound on his arm was also bandaged, with a faint tingling pain.

Ye Ziyu struggled to sit up, wanted to cough uncontrollably, so he suppressed it, and was about to get close to the uneasy trembling eyelashes of his relative, Ning, when the curtain was suddenly lifted, "Sister, let's hurry..." The eyes met Ye Ziyu, the young man fell silent again before finishing his sentence, but then insisted on finishing the last two words, "Here we are."

Ye Ziyu looked over, and the young man in front of him looked a little familiar, and he appeared in this place again, and he still called Ah Ning like this... It should be Xiao Zifu, the third prince who followed King Dingnan since childhood, and also the son of Concubine Yun, the cousin of Ah Ning. younger brother.

Cheng Wanning woke up when she heard the voice, her eyes were full of joy when she saw Ye Ziyu, "Xiao Yu, is there something wrong with you?"

The young man riding a horse outside the curtain curled his lips and put down the curtain, tactfully no longer disturbing him, but he was muttering in his heart, Xiao Yu?Is it really appropriate to call a decisive general like this...?

But the two people in the carriage didn't feel that there was anything inappropriate at all. Cheng Wanning told Ye Ziyu to lie down and told her the current situation, "After you passed out that day, Zifu brought someone over, he He said he had something to discuss with you, so he came to meet you, but he just saved us."

Ye Ziyu nodded, thinking that the last man in black with the broken arm should also be taken care of by Xiao Zifu.She didn't ask any more, afraid that Ah Ning would recall the terrible memories again, she closed her eyes slightly, leaned against Cheng Wanning's side, and adjusted her breath again, and found that the previously violent Wuxin Art had calmed down, and it seemed that the violent power had disappeared. However, Ye Ziyu knows that that kind of power is always there, and if the demon is not eliminated, it will definitely appear again in the future.

Escorted by Xiao Zifu's staff, they arrived at Qian'an County smoothly. The Chifeng army was ready to go, led by the left and right generals Bai Hang, Xiao Ning and military advisor Zhu Xun, and greeted Ye Ziyu at the gate of the city.

It was late at night when he arrived in the army, Ye Ziyu arranged for someone to take Cheng Wanning down to rest, and he and the lieutenants went to the tent to discuss, Xiao Zifu was also there.

Zhu Xun gave an overview of the situation in Shuzhou. At the beginning, the heavy rain broke down the embankment, causing heavy casualties. Many people were displaced and had no food to eat. However, the people sent by the court to relieve the disaster were colluding with the local officials. They only had money in their eyes and ignored the lives of the people. Only then did it arouse public outrage, leading to a direct uprising.

Among the rebels who called themselves the "commoner army", [-]% were from the rivers and lakes, and because most of the local soldiers in Shuzhou were locals, many of their family members died of starvation or drowning. The civilian army had no intention of dealing with it, and some even took off their shirts and joined the civilian army, which led to the fall of Shuzhou very quickly.

Xiao Zifu also echoed from the side, "Exactly, although Shuzhou is also under the jurisdiction of King Dingnan, this matter has nothing to do with my grandpa. I am here on behalf of Taigong, and I came to help General Ye in peace. messy."

Ye Ziyu nodded and looked at the sand table. Not only Shuzhou, but also the three counties and towns under the jurisdiction of Shuzhou were also occupied by the civilian army.They are all hungry people who can't survive. Even if they occupy the city, it is mostly because of continuous heavy rain, no harvest, and the food reserves cannot supply an army for a few days, right?Unless, behind this commoner army stands the rich and powerful Famous Sword Villa.

"Can Famous Sword Villa participate?"

Zhu Xun was taken aback when he heard the words, "I didn't come forward, but I'm waiting for the general these days, those civilian soldiers should have almost eaten up the granary. Officials in the Shuzhou area have always been corrupt, and the granary should not have much food. ” Paused, then sighed, “If there really is a famous sword villa behind it, then there will be no shortage of food in the short term.”

Bai Hang's expression was not very good-looking. He had been in martial arts and had a good impression of Mingjian Villa. "Mingjian Villa is a decent family... If you care about the people, you can open a granary. Why incite the people to revolt?"

Xiao Ning smiled, "There are a lot of hypocrites in the world, and you have never been in contact with Famous Sword Villa, how can you be sure that he is really famous and upright?"

Bai Hang cast a glance at Xiao Ning, said nothing, with an undisguised disdain on his face.He has always looked down on the "boneless" general, even if he recognizes Xiao Ning's strength, he still looks down on this person.

Ye Ziyu held a smile and asked, "What do you think the military adviser should do now?"

Zhu Xun replied without hesitation, "Cut off the source, buy people's hearts, and open warehouses to provide food." Zhu Xun analyzed carefully, "Although [-]% of them are from the Jianghu, most of them are still ordinary people. Why would you choose to rebel? As long as you solve the flood as soon as possible, rebuild their houses, and give them food to eat, you will no longer confront Daxu. The rest of the Jianghu people have nothing to fear."

Ye Ziyu shook his head, with a cold look in his eyes, "You also said that there is nothing to be afraid of. Could it be that the addition of some civilians who can't hold weapons smoothly makes my Chifeng army fearful? It's just a bunch of mobs."

Zhu Xun frowned, "What does the general mean?"

"Heavy rain, floods, reconstruction, and disaster relief are all things that the imperial court has to do. Since our tiger and wolf master has come here, all he has to do is kill." Ye Ziyu said with a smile, which sounded very good to others. Cruel words, "Those so-called commoner armies did not take the initiative to attack but because they occupied Shuzhou, they had food and shelter, and it is human nature to be greedy for comfort. With these, they are unwilling to risk death at any time to send troops to fight , but the forces behind them are not raising them for nothing, and will definitely find a way to make them face us."

Ye Ziyu's smile continued to deepen, "Then, if they think that we are more terrifying than the forces behind them...Zhu Xun, tell me, will they use their weapons to eat and survive? To those who have been secretly helping them?"

Zhu Xun stared in shock, "General, you want to force them to rebel in their nests?! But how can we make those common people think that we are so terrifying that we cannot be shaken?"

Ye Zi's imperial dimples were shallow, and her white jade-like fingers pointed to a place on the sand table, and said two words softly, "Tucheng."
