Lianshan Midnight Green

Fu Lang remembered what the coachman said before, he first went to a pawn shop, pawned a topaz bracelet, exchanged a lot of silver, and then went to find a place to settle down.The post house in Yanling was really not expensive. Fu Lang stayed up for two nights and tossed and tossed for a long time. He was too tired to open his eyes and fell asleep.

She has something on her mind, even if she sleeps, she can't sleep well.Had a strange dream in which she was counting money.Since she was a child, she loved money the most. Her father was a businessman who sold gadgets in the street market. She sat behind the cart and counted the money his father collected.The small business doesn't make much money, it's all copper plates and broken silver. She takes a used red string and strings the coins soaked in sweat and fresh smell.One string and two strings, her father touched her nose with a smile: "Ah Fu, what are you going to eat later?"

She was counting happily without raising her head: "I don't have time, I still have to count money!"

Father said, "Ah Fu loves money so much?"

Only then did she raise her head, look at her father, and said in a childish voice, "Once Fu has money, he can take his parents to live in a big house, and feel at ease!"

Her father smiled and shook her braid, and she continued to count.

As he counted, the copper plate in his hand turned into jasper coral and golden sandalwood.She looked up, and her father was no longer there.Fu Lang was not surprised, he lowered his head and continued to search.She has used countless of these things in Anqi Building, and she has long since ignored them, and she is still counting them happily, with a thin layer of sweat oozing from her nostrils.Ah Zhong smiled and patted her forehead: "Ah Fu, why do you love money so much?"

She picked out a golden hairpin and put it on Ah Zhong's head: "Ah Zhong, with this, you can live a good life for a few years after you leave Anqi Building."

Axin on the side smiled bitterly: "Fu, are you still having this kind of dream? You Qi people are so stupid, don't you know that once you become a slave, you will never recover?"

She ignored it and continued counting.

Summer came, and the weather became extremely hot, and sweat dripped from her forehead.The flowers outside were blooming, golden and hot like fire, and even smelled of ashes.She had never seen such a flower before, she put down the jade belt in her hand, got up and pushed open the window, Huahuo licked her head and face with the tongue of fire, the burning was so real that there was even the sound of crying and screaming.

She looked back and saw that Ah Zhong and Asin had become bones, gold, silver and jewels had been reduced to ashes; she looked up and saw Anqi Building was in flames, stretching for several miles, black smoke covered the moonlight, and the whole city became a scene of buried screams. Crying sea of ​​flames.

Purgatory on earth, nothing more.

Fu Lang's back was drenched in cold sweat, knowing that it was a dream, he still couldn't help screaming.Someone grabbed her shoulders and shook her desperately, and she finally opened her eyes forcefully.In front of him was the face of the shop waiter, full of anxiety: "Girl? Girl!"

Fu Lang regained his composure, and looked over Xiaoer's shoulder to see the scene outside the window.

A sea of ​​flames illuminated the entire city as bright as day, just like in the dream.And this is Yanling, not Chen Guo.

Seeing that she was still in a daze, Xiao Er patted her again, and dragged her up from the bed: "Girl, there are barbarians in the city, and they lit a fire. The fire is so fierce that it won't be extinguished for a while." The barbarians are still robbing money and women in the city, and they ask the girl to run away quickly! The people in our post house are leaving, the girl be careful!"

That Xiaoer kindly came up to wake her up, but because Fu Lang was beautiful and kind, and he was generous, he gave a lot of money.Now that the catastrophe is imminent, I have done my best, and I don't care about her now, and ran downstairs to follow the shopkeeper.

Fu Lang was stunned on the bed for a while, then put on his clothes and got down to the ground. Looking from the window, the situation here is relatively safe, and the barbarians probably haven't been killed for a while.When the night wind blew with the fly ash, she woke up a lot, put on her shoes and went downstairs.The front door was on fire, and sparks were flying around. She only took one look before turning around and running to the back door.

The back door was ajar, she pushed it casually, but didn't push it.Pushing harder, it seemed that something had been pushed down. The wooden gate suddenly opened, and there was a donkey cart parked in the middle of the path!

She was overjoyed, thinking that she could ride a donkey and run faster, so she lifted her legs and walked out the door.The soles of the feet felt soft as if they had stepped on something.When she looked down, the hairs all over her body stood up—a person was lying on the ground—or she couldn’t be called a person, because there was a bloody hole on her neck, and her head was missing.

Fu Lang suppressed the discomfort welling up in his throat, took a step to avoid the man's body, and ran to the donkey cart.The donkey is still wearing the bridle, attached to the shaft.How could she drive a car, so she looked up and down, found the knot, and tried to untie it.The hemp rope was tightly tied, and she didn't untie it for a long time.The fire in the front yard quickly spread to the back yard, and her back was scorching hot from the heat.There were loud voices of people and horseshoes coming out of the smoke, and they were chattering words that Fu Lang couldn't understand, most likely they were the barbarians Xiaoer mentioned.

Fu Lang gritted his teeth and threw away the knot, simply sat on the shaft of the chariot and flicked the reins.The donkey took a few steps forward, the carriage leaned forward, and something rolled behind Fu Lang's back.Impatiently, Fu Langzheng stretched out his hand, and suddenly his soul flew away - the tentacles of that thing were still warm and covered with hair.Half of Fu Lang's body froze, and he told himself not to look back!However, the body reacted before consciousness, and looked back.

Fu Lang's ears heard his screams, his eyes saw him throwing off the reins and jumping off the car, but his brain couldn't react until he got up after rolling a few times on the ground, and looked up to see dozens of barbarian horses in front of him. The horse's hooves kicked up dust and swept towards him, and the barbarian in front raised his big knife high and was about to swing it down at her.

Fu Lang closed his eyes resignedly, with only one thought left in his mind: I'm really unlucky.

With a tight waist, Fu Lang felt his whole body being pulled up in the air and thrown onto something, with his head down and his stomach under pressure.Her waist and abdomen were in pain, and she opened her eyes boldly to realize that she was on horseback, and she was not killed—if she was not killed, she was looted, there is no worst, only worse.

Fu Lang struggled a few times on the horse's back, while the rider was galloping with all his strength, he raised his hand and whipped down a few times, and the horse ran faster and faster like lightning.Fu Lang's nose was full of dust and soot, and the head he saw just now kept flashing in his mind, his stomach was jolted up and down, it was like death.She became angry and struggled to sit up, but she couldn't get away, so she could only yell: "Bastard! Kill if you want, what kind of skill is bullying people like this! Don't you understand? If you don't understand, I will teach you! Son of a bitch--!"

She was not breathing well on horseback, and she scolded people in fragments. She had no momentum but was funny.The person on the horse seemed very helpless, and patted her on the back with his hand: "Don't move around."

That person's voice was warm and cool, but he was not a barbarian, but a woman.And a little familiar——

Fu Lang's neck was about to be broken, Fili Bara raised his head from the horse's belly, and glanced at the person behind him with a genuine squint.

The man was still wearing the dusty armor, but there was no crown on his head, it was simply put on like a soldier, obviously he fell asleep and got up again.His face was covered with a thin layer of sweat from the fire, probably because he was jolting a lot on the horse, and a few strands of hair were scattered on his face, wet with sweat, strand by strand, and somewhat messy.However, she looked calm and not embarrassed.The wall of someone's house was thrown down by flames, and the golden and red flames rolled over, reflecting her snow-white face to be dyed red, so bright, Fu Lang finally saw clearly that this was the woman in military uniform who rescued her in the evening!

A broken wall blocked the middle of the road, and without any panic, she raised the rein, and the horse was also smart, with its front hooves raised, and it crossed the broken wall lightly and deftly, galloping like lightning in a fire.Fu Lang was so frightened that he couldn't scream anymore, his hands and feet fluttered, the woman held her waist, and said slowly: "Don't be afraid."

Fu Lang was so choked that he coughed twice, and wanted to cry, "It's not that I'm afraid! If I burn in the fire for a while, my eyebrows and hair will all be gone!"

There was a little smile in the man's voice: "How could that be?"

Fu Lang took a deep breath, and stammered: "Why not? You... you, you pulled me... you didn't say a word when you pulled me up, it scared me... I thought I was going to be robbed by barbarians Go back and do...become a concubine...!"

The man said: "Barbarians don't want little wives, barbarians eat human flesh and drink human blood," she said, but she swung the whip with her right hand, and someone fell to the ground in response, probably some barbarians were thrown off their horses by her whip, and then they looked down. He glanced at Fu Lang: "Girl, you are not afraid, you are still untying the rope to play."

Fu Lang was so shocked that he couldn't breathe at all, and he still tried to defend: "I...I don't know how to... drive a car... Later... I couldn't untie the rope... I just went up to drive a car... Hey...you Can you... let me sit up..."

The man heard her speak intermittently, and finally frowned and said: "Are you uncomfortable? Then sit up." As he spoke, he reached out to help her.

Fu Lang couldn't wish for it, and was about to give her his hand, when he suddenly withdrew it and said, "Wait a minute..."

The man was concerned: "What's wrong?"

Fu Lang didn't say the word "wait", retched a few times, and then threw up sporadically while lying on the horse, feeling dizzy and about to vomit bile.

The man paused, patted and rubbed her back unskillfully, and said, "Is it better?"

Her voice was soft, and her hands didn't delay the business, and the horsewhip fell like lightning, knocking down a few more barbarians.In the end, seeing Fu Lang tremblingly grasping the reins, he simply stopped supporting her and drew out a long knife from nowhere, and fought among the barbarian soldiers and horses for a while, forcibly tearing through the encirclement, the horseshoes then slowed down.

After Fu Lang vomited, he lost the strength to speak. He leaned on the horse's back and swayed for a while. The man seemed to suddenly remember that there was someone like her: "Would you like to sit up?"

Fu Lang didn't have the strength to stare at her anymore, so he nodded and let her lift himself up and sit sideways on the horse.

The man looked at her: "You look bad."

Fu Lang thought to himself, this person is interesting.She was chased and hacked by barbarians in the middle of the night, stepped on the body of the dead, looked at the head of the dead, and turned her head upside down in the middle of the night. If her face was okay, she should have joined the army to kill all directions, and maybe she could be a general. Dangdang.

I think so, after all, I have to bow my head when I am in the house.Picking up one that had nothing to do with others, he said: "I didn't finish talking just now. I'm not driving a cart. There is a dead man's head on that donkey cart. I haven't seen it before, so I'm afraid."

The man seemed to be sympathetic and nodded: "Oh, I'm afraid. I understand."

Seeing her expression, Fu Lang paused: "Actually, you don't understand?"

The man looked at her, looked away again, was also silent for a while, and then said: "...It is true, I don't quite understand. I am not afraid of death."

Fu Lang pursed his lips and nodded: "Oh, you are not afraid of death. I understand."

The man said: "You mean I was wrong."

Fu Lang turned around and cupped his hands: "Don't dare, I want to thank you for saving my life."

The man laughed at her.Although her skin was a little pale, her eyes were extremely bright under her long eyebrows, and they reflected the firelight, giving her a little more vitality.She didn't laugh out loud, nor did she show her teeth, but the corners of her lips were slightly raised.Such a face is not suitable for this armor, but she has a dignified demeanor, with a long sword in her hand, her hair is tied like a soldier, and there is a little sweat on her forehead, she looks like a young man and a young lady , there is nothing wrong with it.

Fu Lang blushed for some reason, and quickly turned his head to look in front of him. He felt that the man smelled very pleasant, like bergamot, and like plum blossoms. The breath he exhaled gently blew behind her ears. , There is a slight itch.She hid for a while, afraid of embarrassment, she had nothing to say: "Where are you going now?"

The man pondered and said: "I'm really sorry, I have to go to the military camp in the south of the city. I have already traveled a long way, and there is no way to send you back. Please, please follow me to the military camp. I will wait for things here in a few days, and I will definitely send you off." return."

Although she spoke very politely and thoughtfully, Fu Lang also vaguely guessed her identity.The "Young Master" who has no title but has a high position in the Qi army, even Jiang Xian wants to kowtow to her, and she is also a young woman - her identity cannot be better guessed, most likely it is the rumored acting king who governs the army The eldest son of the Qi Kingdom, Pei Se!Fu Lang's heart was beating like a drum, and his throat felt tight.There is nowhere to look after breaking through the iron shoes, so it turns out that the person that the young man in Yanzhou wanted her to find is here!

She gathered herself together, forced herself to restrain herself, and changed her mind, thinking about the barbarians raiding Yanling again, and this fire again, thinking that the city in the army is busy, probably Pei Se can't get out at this time, so naturally It's not very likely to send him away. In this way, Fu Lang will save a lot of trouble.

But Pei Se didn't reveal her identity, and Fu Lang didn't reveal it either.She shrugged and said, "There's no other way, I can only listen to you."

Pei Se probably nodded, because Fu Lang felt her breath move up and down.She didn't know how she felt so keenly, maybe because she had been on a horse for a long time, her five senses became clear.Fu Lang wanted to laugh, and was about to say, "I can't see, what are you nodding for?", but swallowed the words back to his stomach, because he remembered her demeanor in the corner in the evening - she stretched out her hand for a handkerchief At first glance, he drew a circle in the crowd, and the word "check" made Jiang Xian sweat profusely - this is obviously a master who can say a word and never speak.

There were refugees fleeing everywhere in the city, and fire broke out everywhere. Fortunately, the soldiers defending the city responded quickly, and most of the barbarians who raided into the city were driven away or killed by their horses.After another stick of incense, people gradually thinned out, and a large army camp fire was seen from a distance in the wilderness, and there was a faint rumbling sound, rolling like thunder to shake the earth.Fu Lang looked far and wide, and it turned out that there were cavalry with iron hooves ready to go. The cold light of the bronze armor dipped in the light of fire and moonlight and sprinkled the whole wilderness. The night was so dark that it was hard to see how many soldiers and horses there were at a glance.

Fu Lang murmured: "How many people must there be..."

The person behind pondered: "About [-]."

Fu Lang whispered: "How do you know..."

The man didn't answer, he shook the rein, and the horse they were riding neighed and galloped wildly.The evening wind from the north came up, dried the thin layer of sweat, and then stuck strands into his neck. Fu Lang seemed to sense the displeasure of the person behind him, and he gritted his teeth and remained silent.

This horse was extremely tall and strong, and it ran as fast as lightning and thunder. It took almost only a moment to reach the tens of thousands of soldiers and cavalry.

The man tightened the reins, the horse slowed down, and slowly circled half a circle in front of the cavalry platoon.If she didn't speak, no one dared to speak out. For a moment, only the sound of horseshoes scraping against the grass, mixed with the whistling of the north wind, made one's heart suddenly full of sadness.Fu Lang had never seen such a formation before, and he didn't even dare to show his breath at the moment.

The horse continued to walk a few steps, was reined in again, and stopped in the middle.Fu Lang heard her suddenly ask, "Where is Commander Jiang?"

Her voice was clear and clear, not loud, but it could reach the formation.After a while, Jiang Xian came out from the back of the formation, pushed aside the human barrier, and knelt down in the middle of the formation: "My subordinates refer to the eldest son."

She snorted coldly, and suddenly steered her horse towards the camp beside her. The horse's hooves were neither fast nor slow, and she threw Jiang Xian away within a few steps.Jiang Xian knew the advantages and disadvantages, so he didn't dare to be negligent, and he also took a step to catch up, and finally caught up with the horse in front of the camp.

Pei Se jumped off the horse and extended another hand to Fu Lang.Although Fu Lang didn't know how to ride a horse, he sat on his side, so he wouldn't be too embarrassed when he dismounted. Just holding her hand, his body slipped and fell to the ground lightly. Only then did he realize that Pei Se was one or two inches taller than her. So slightly raised his face and smiled, "Thank you."

She nodded: "It's just a small matter."

Fu Lang saw that she had a murderous look just now, but now she became kind again, thinking that this person is not petty, but he will turn his face quickly.

Jiang Xian ran over out of breath, seeing her still standing outside the camp, he was also relieved, and saluted: "My subordinates are late for the rescue, please forgive me!"

Jiang Xian knew that the eldest son was attacked in Yanling this time, broke through the siege alone, and went from the north to the south of the city.He is only a small official, but he was promoted to this position only last year, so he is really not sure about this person's temper.What's more, he thought the city was well guarded. Jiang Xian himself was at a loss as to why Yanling City was burned and looted overnight.At the moment, he had no choice but to call in all the soldiers he could, and by the way, he sent people to Shencheng to ask General Lin to send troops to rescue.

Sure enough, she lowered her head and wiped the sweat on her forehead with her sleeves, then swung the rein on one side of the stake with one hand, the rein was tightly caught, and tied a knot again, then she asked, "What did you do? Behind the cavalry camp? Prime Minister Jin ordered you to guard Yanling City, but now it seems that all the cavalry in Yanling are going to guard you?"

Jiang Xian was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, after all, he was indeed behind the camp just now, and he had never planned to charge into the battle, and it was because he hadn't thought carefully.

There was a sound of voices in the tent, someone opened the curtain and came out, the leader was a middle-aged man, also in armor, with a messy black beard, when he saw them, he just bowed his hands: "Young master."

Followed behind was a young girl, also tall and tall, wearing armor, with an anxious expression on her face. She walked around behind the man, saw the eldest son, and almost cried, "Young master! Are you alright? How did you get here? This way They are all barbarians, and there is still a big fire, Chi Yu thought..."

Standing beside her, Fu Lang watched as she raised her hand and patted Chiyu's shoulder, then nodded slightly to the black beard and said, "General Lin, please bring your troops here."

As soon as General Lin opened his mouth, he said the same thing as Chi Yu: "How did you come here?"

She pointed to the horse tied to the side: "I stole the barbarian's horse." Pointing to the horse's back, "I stole the barbarian's knife."

Fu Lang's heart skipped a beat.The posthouse she lived in was in the city, and it turned out that when she picked herself up on the horse, she had already hacked down half of Yanling City from the north to the south.Just now I was still thinking about where she got the long knife, but she said it was stolen... Fu Lang only knew that Pei Se was in charge of the army, and he must have good skills.But he never thought that she would really charge into the battle, and her skills are actually quite good.She shuddered, luckily he didn't mess with her while on the horse.

As expected, General Lin was not very surprised, but looked at the horse in amazement: "My lord, the barbarian's horse is really good! Look at the fur and the tendons!"

Chiyu was not surprised by General Lin's love for Ma Chengzhi, so he just opened the curtain: "Young Master, come in and talk." His eyes swept around and stopped on Fu Lang, "Young Master, who is this?"

She paused for a moment, as if she suddenly remembered something, she retracted her feet and stood still, turned her head and scanned half a circle, her eyes fixed on Fu Lang.

A strange idea suddenly popped up in Fu Lang's head: what would happen if she knew that she was Fu Lang from Chen Guo.

The lights in the tent were brightly lit, and as soon as the curtain was opened, the wind from the wilderness immediately poured into the tent, making the lights flickering on and off.Reflected on people's faces, Pei Se's expression seemed to be uncertain, but the hunting flames and banners were reflected in his eyes.The words mixed with the wind and poured into Fu Lang's ears: "Pei Se, haven't you asked the girl's name yet?"

Fu Lang watched her neat lips open and close, for some reason, he stuttered and coughed before saying, "I, my name is Wei Lang."
