wind,

Just pinch the leaves from the trees and push the clouds into the mountains.

When it reaches people's mouth, it is like raising millet, blowing away every frown and smile, blowing away the mind of nine twists and eighteen bends, leaving only the story.

Against the mountain wind, Ying Xiaolu was telling us the story of the Silver Bridle Village.

She said: "My second brother has been a serious person since he was a child. The more serious he is, the more I love him. When I was young, I liked to say to him 'Daddy only likes me, not you'. At that time I brought Seeing him being naughty, he refused to go after a few times, saying that Daddy would scold me. But Daddy never scolded me. My brother heard me tell me many times that Daddy doesn’t like you, and finally couldn’t help it. At that time, there was a grandson Mr. taught the children in the village to read, and my second brother was very attached to him. He cried and asked Mr. Sun if Dad really only liked younger sisters. It has been a joke in my family for many years."

Liuqidao Mountain is high and dangerous, no matter how urgent you are, you can't run away.It has been nearly ten days since we left Guiyun, and now we are finally approaching the end, but we can only slow down.

The strong wind blew all day today, making people feel cold all over in the midsummer, and Shen Shiwei's black spear's fringe and horse's mane mingled into a ball.

He had already taken off his miscellaneous soldier clothes, and now he was wearing a strong suit with narrow arrow sleeves.He appeared in the team a few days ago, claiming to have come secretly to help his brother and his wife. Ying Xiaolu didn't notice that we had a conspiracy, and said a bunch of words of gratitude.

I vaguely remember the scene where Ying Xiaolu spoke while Shen Shiwei and I listened.

It's just that the relationship between the three of us seems to have jumped from a drama to a fan.

It really seems like a lifetime away.

During this period of time, Ying Xiaolu never took the initiative to mention the silver bridle village. Now when she talks about it, she seems to want to tell us everything about it: "When I grow up, my father finally joins me. I scolded. But no matter how angry he was, the whole village was jumping, and I was the only one who dared to talk back.

Second brother Yi is right, my father has been unhappy for 20 years, he loves to lose his temper, maybe it is because of this.

When my brother and I brought His Majesty back to the stronghold last winter, Silver Bridle was rushing to build ships and reorganize the army, busy and noisy every day.But every day is like a new year.I thought then, if only we had found His Majesty sooner.If His Majesty could have grown up with us in the village, he wouldn't be as ugly as he is now, and my father would have been happy 20 years earlier. "

The wind blew her words into pieces, and it also made me a little bit blindfolded.After squinting for a long time, I was a little dazed on the horse, and I didn't know how many passages I missed.

"But then something started to go wrong. In the spring, my second brother asked me if I would like to go to Qihe. I should have said that I didn't want to go. Silver Bridle still has so many things to do. Why should I go to Zhuoxiu? But in the end What's wrong? I agreed to come anyway."

……

"Actually, until now, I feel like I'm dreaming. How could my dad scold me with such ugly words? How could he watch me die? But maybe it's really a dream, because I don't feel pain. My heart doesn't hurt, my heart hurts. It doesn't hurt even when it hurts, and even my second brother bleeds so much, I can't figure out how this red and fishy thing on the ground came from."

……

"Brother Zhan saved me."

This sentence finally woke me up.I sneaked a look at Shen Zhiwei's face, he cast a teasing glance at me, but Jide didn't say anything harsh.

Ying Xiaolu didn't have the time to pay attention to our small actions. She turned her head and asked me seriously: "If only I thought about not having Your Majesty. Just think about it, is it a big treason?

Just because he came, my home has become different from mine, even my father and second brother have changed.I always think, what would have happened if we hadn't rescued him ashore in Lingshui River?He was very ill on the way back to Silver Bridle, what if I procrastinate for two days? "

She seemed to have finally found the answer, but was immediately trapped by a more serious question: "Brother Zhan, the barbarian emperor is not good to the people of the world, so we don't want him to be the emperor anymore, but your majesty will be the emperor. How are the people in the world? So many people have died, what are we doing for?"

With Zhuo Xiu, the father and son of the Sima family, Chen Fang probably wouldn't be able to become emperor.

But I can't say this, I thought about it, and I could only say: "Xiaolu, Chen Fang is indeed a bastard. You can say these things casually in front of me and Junior Brother Shen, but don't tell anyone else."

Ying Xiaolu said: "I know. If my father heard about it, he would definitely beat me to death."

Probably remembering that her father would no longer be able to kill anyone with a single palm, she suddenly froze and slowly lowered her head.

After a while, she said: "I never hated my father. My father is good to me."

Ying Xiaolu told us the last story of this journey.

"I remember it happened when I was six years old. My mother was very ill at that time, and it was also summer. I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep anymore. I wanted to sneak to the river by myself. But as soon as I stepped out of the house, I saw a A dark figure was circling in the stockade. It turned out to be my father. He walked and stood for a while, but he never returned to the house. I got impatient and tried to sneak past him while he was not looking, but I was still caught up.

My dad asked me: 'Why aren't you sleeping yet? 'I said:'I want to find my mother. '

I thought my dad would definitely drive me back to the house, but I didn't expect him to say: 'Your mother is tired, daddy can play with you. 'Father usually dislikes us being naughty, but that night when I said I wanted to go to the riverside, he agreed without hesitation.

On the way to the river, the crickets kept chirping, and there were many fireflies.My dad caught one for me, and I accidentally let it go, so he caught another one for me.I thought it was funny how he caught the bugs, so I let the fireflies go again.My father caught fireflies along the way for me as if he didn't know that I did it on purpose.

When we got to the river, the moon shone on the beach like daytime. I have never seen such a bright moon again.My father told me how he caught crabs when he was a child, and also told me that there was a horse with dragon scales in the Liezong River, and the person who rode it would become a fairy.Only the village owner of the silver bridle knows about this matter. Now that he has told me, I will never be able to tell anyone else. "

The wind blew away the mountain mist, and the dangerous peak that the silver bridle was occupying finally showed a corner in the col.Ying Xiaolu looked at her home and smiled slightly: "You know what? I haven't told my second brother about it until now."

When I first came to Silver Bridle, I saw their secret sentry in the mountains.But no matter how Ying Xiaolu whistles today, no one responds.

After turning around the last mountain bay, we arrived at the bluestone dam in front of the village.The "English" flag was still floating on the opposite gate, but the wooden planks on the chain bridge were all taken away, leaving the bare chains swaying slightly in the strong wind.

Shen Zhiwei asked: "Is this the arrangement of the silver bridle?"

Ying Xiaolu's face was full of confusion: "I don't know, it's only like this when someone comes to commit an offense. Maybe we went to Guiyun, my elder brother wants to be careful."

I said, "What should we do? How about we light up the flag?"

It seems a little impolite to fly the military flag, but now there is no second way to tell the opposite that the lady is bringing the uncle back to the door.

Ying Xiaolu was still not reconciled, standing under the banner of Lie Liexiang, she used her internal strength and played a long whistle.

On the opposite tower, someone's head was shaking.But it only swayed for a while, and then ran away like a seal, and dived into the ice layer and never appeared again.

Are you really not letting your own sister in?

I said: "This can be..."

But Ying Xiaolu whistled again eagerly.

Finally, living creatures appeared on the tower, seeming to be busy running, and then several monster-like black shadows protruded from the top of the wall.

I heard Shen Zhiwei say: "Back."

Before I could ask why, he pulled Ying Xiaolu onto the saddle, got back on the horse and shouted, "Retreat! The whole battalion retreat!"

The sharp cry passed by.

There seemed to be a short silence, but it finally turned into a "boom" that shook the earth.

The blasted gravel fell like rain.I snatched the military flag from the frightened flag bearer, and shouted: "The whole battalion retreats behind the mountain!!"

The second shot hit the cliff.As if bitten by some huge monster, a corner of the bluestone platform suddenly collapsed, and even a chain fell into the river.

I waved the flag to drive away the soldiers: "Back! Back!"

The third shell finally landed in the crowd.

I don't know if it's a dead horse or the flesh and blood of a dead person flying all over the sky.Shen Zhiwei turned back and came back, a bloody army horse kicked around in place, and the rider on the horse was shouting loudly, Shen Zhiwei pulled him off the horse as he passed by: "Leave the horse alone! While they are reloading! Go back!"

As expected, the city wall opposite was silent for a moment.

But before we had completely withdrawn from Qingshiba, the cannons rang out again, this time every shot hit the place where we were standing just now, plowing deep marks on the ground.

The air was full of the smell of sulfur, amidst the sound of people turning their backs, we rushed down the stone dam and fell behind the mountain bay.

Although the target had already escaped the range, the cannons were still ringing endlessly, as if they were venting endless grievances.

I finally regained my composure and commanded the whole team during the interval of the gunfire, while looking for where Shen Shiwei was.

He was looking at the direction of the silver bridle thoughtfully, as if he could see through the mountain wall.I grabbed his arm: "Are you okay?" He shook his head and gave me another wink.

Following his gaze, I saw Ying Xiaolu curled up under the mountain wall from behind a few horse legs, trembling.

It was the first time I saw her so scared.
