Purple must

Chapter 18

"Sandalwood... Sandalwood..." The man's hoarse voice cursed, "...Is that the demon coming?! Linghuo, kill him quickly! Kill him!" He jumped up suddenly, sternly scream.

The man in a gray hat just grabbed his five fingers lightly, and the incense was extinguished. Only the last wisp of smoke, like a lonely ghost, gradually dissipated in the air.

"Master, I heard that the scent of sandalwood can calm people, so I light it up." The man in the bamboo hat honored Ao Chen, the leader of the dog army, as his master. Although his tone of voice was soft, he was neither humble nor overbearing.

Ao Chen clasped his head with both hands, and said in a trembling voice: "The smell of this sandalwood reminds me of that demonic way, that demonic way..." He suddenly raised his voice as he spoke, laughed and picked up the straw man who had just been thrown aside, He grabbed the straw man's neck viciously, and lost his voice: "Yaodao! I'll strangle you! Stretch you! The person in Shutong's heart is me! It's me!"

The straw man wrapped in purple cloth was torn apart by him, and the needles stuck inside fell off one after another.

Linghuo looked at him quietly, and said softly: "...the Fengqi State Master of the Zhou Dynasty was torn apart by Lu Changqing's car a few months ago. He is dead."

"Dead? Dead, good death! Good death!" Ao Chen laughed again.

He suddenly turned around and walked quickly to a pot of small purple flowers in the military tent, picked it up, and said with great pity: "...Zi Wan, the first time I met Mr. Qitong, he pretended to be a businessman looking for high-quality Zi Wan everywhere." Flowers... So I pretended to be a medicine farmer and got him the best aster in the tribe..."

"Aster...Aster..." Ao Chen murmured, panting, a man in his early thirties put his face on a flower, looking crazy and sick.

Linghuo showed no signs of impatience, and said calmly, "Master, Xiao Huaijin, Marquis Ji of the Zhou Dynasty, has led troops to attack, and I have sent cavalry to meet them."

Ao Chen suddenly put away his madness, his eyes were as cold as a python, and he walked out of the military tent.

The two armies fought in a melee, Ji Xiao brandished his sword and slashed left and right. He got mixed up with the men and couldn't tell the difference between male and female.Xiao Huaijin didn't wear any armor, but only wore her usual blue gown, glanced at her sister, and sighed wearily.Ji Xiao was slashing at the opponent's shield with a sword, when suddenly there was a wind in her ears, she knew something was wrong, she hurriedly lowered her head to dodge.At this time, Xin Bo had already shot the arrow in the back, and he still had time to smile at her.Xinbo rode his horse to Jihou's side, and said in a low voice, "I think it's almost there."

Xiao Huaijin hid her hands in her sleeves, secretly bowed to him, and said softly, "Huaijin obeys."

Jihou's troops are not many, and after fighting for a while, they have already shown a disadvantage.He ordered the messenger to call for gold, and took the lead in retreating southward with his troops.

Seeing that the Qi army was defeated, Lord Quanrong wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue it, but the spirit fire beside him raised his bamboo hat slightly and persuaded him: "Master, I'm afraid there may be fraud, so don't chase after him."

Ao Chen sneered and said: "The princes of the Zhou Dynasty are just a mess. Xiao Huaijin fled in the wilderness, and our army's morale is high. How can we let the tiger go back to the mountain!"

Linghuo pointed at Qi Jun and said: "Although Qi Jun is retreating, the flags are neat and orderly, and there is no chaos at all. There is no sign of defeat and haste. People in Zhou are so deceitful, please think again, master."

Ao Chen narrowed his eyes, remained silent for a moment, and ordered the whole army to stop chasing.

Lu Changqing led his troops to hide in the mountains and forests. The spies came to report, but they said that the dog army had not left the camp.

Feng Qi originally designed to lure the Quan Rong army into an ambush in the valley, and then ordered Lu Changqing to attack his camp secretly, attacking from both sides, but unexpectedly, the Dog Rong army was not fooled.

While sipping the water in the deerskin water bag, he coughed intermittently. Hearing this, he didn't even raise his eyebrows.

After drinking the water, he regained his energy a bit, sat on the tree stump, curled up slightly in the wind, and said softly: "Aman, while this is the time, let me teach you your elder brother's Bian Formation. "

Lu Shutong had heard the word "Qi'an Formation" when Feng Qi was in a coma that day, and he couldn't help asking: "What kind of formation is this? My brother created it?"

Feng Qi said: "Mr. Qitong said that this formation was realized from a set of palm techniques when he was practicing. He explained it to me in detail, but only tried it twice on the battlefield."

"I am an enemy and not a friend to you, why do you tell me?"

Feng Qi shook his head and smiled, "After all, it belongs to your Lu family, I will return it to you sooner or later."

After finishing speaking, he picked up a dead branch from the ground, and said while drawing on the ground: "Qi An is a mythical beast in ancient times. It is anxious for justice and can speak out for justice and distinguish right from wrong. The reason why it is named 'Qi An' , on the one hand, your brother likes this implication, and on the other hand, this formation is shaped like this beast."

"The two people at the front of the formation are called 'horns'. The horns hold a shield, which is beneficial to advance while defending; behind the horns is the 'head'. The first holds a spear with a flag, and controls the rhythm of the attack, pays attention to the enemy's movements and Aid to all parties; with the 'head' as the center, one person on the left and right in the oblique front is called the 'front paw', holding a bow and arrow, covering the attack and shooting the enemy in front; □, responsible for the attack. Finally, there are three people, called 'tails', who hold bows and arrows and short knives respectively, cover the advance, support the attack and defend the rear."

"I used this formation twice...cough cough..." Feng Qi suddenly arched his body and coughed. He took out a handkerchief from his bosom to cover his mouth for a long while, then grabbed the handkerchief back.Lu Changqing knew what the scarlet thing was above without looking.

Feng Qi seemed to have completely disregarded his physical condition, and stubbornly said again: "...Two times we dealt with cavalry, how does Ah Man feel?"

Lu Changqing said: "The Juan Formation attaches great importance to the application of bows and arrows, because it is for dealing with cavalry."

Feng Qi nodded, "That's right, the Juan Formation was originally designed to allow infantry to deal with cavalry, and Mr. Qitong also values ​​bows and arrows. But the strength of bows and arrows lies in long-distance combat. Once close, this formation will be weak in defense. There is a loophole..." He stopped again, pressed his chest, and closed his eyes.

The old man has passed away, but the formation remains, and the feeling that things are right and people are wrong makes Feng Qi feel so painful that it is difficult to speak.

Lu Changqing also felt the same way, he turned around and said, "If you can't continue talking, don't talk about it."

But Feng Qi opened his eyes, and said firmly: "...If you can't go on, you have to talk about it. How can you not let you know about the formation created by Mr. Qitong..."

Sure enough, he raised his spirits again and said: "So I discussed with your brother and made some changes. The two archers with 'front paws' became wolf whisks to cover the advance of the 'horns' and the array behind them. This increases Once the cavalry approached, the wolf whisk could sweep across the hooves of the horses. At the same time, the two spears in the 'hind paws' were turned into bows and arrows, and the first two of the three in the 'tail' formed a four-man bow and arrow party It’s just that this improved Bi’an formation hasn’t been used on the battlefield yet.”

Lu Changqing silently listened to Feng Qi explaining the formation, feeling a little sad in his heart.Putting aside personal grievances, Feng Qi can be described as an excellent teacher. He talks about things in simple terms and is very patient.It must be a happy thing to grow up in front of such knowledgeable and persuasive elders.In the past, Lu Shutong also mentioned the matter of asking Lu Changqing to worship Feng Qi as his teacher, but it was delayed due to the war, and then something happened to Lu Shutong again.When Feng Qi was in the palace teaching those fat-bellied royal children, he led the army to fight against wild beasts and barbarians in the wilderness.And the facts have proved that no matter how good the teacher you follow is, it is not as profound as what you have learned from the cruel reality.

Lu Changqing looked at his blue hair scattered on his shoulders, mixed with a few white hairs, blown by the wind from time to time.That tiredness and oldness did not arouse his disgust.This person is more calm and introverted than the young and vigorous Taoist priest more than 20 years ago, but such a change in temperament is even more touching.The white hair in the wind seemed to blow into Lu Changqing's heart, stirring up the feelings in his heart, and for a moment he didn't know whether to love or hate.

At this time, a single rider came galloping from the cover of the forest, it turned out to be the young man Xin Bo who had been following Jihou all along.

Lu Changqing's expression became colder, and he lowered his eyes to glance at him.

Xin Bo was always gentle, but he seemed to dislike Lu Changqing very much, frowning unabashedly.The two just looked at each other.He has a handsome appearance and a dignified manner, which is not inferior to others; but Lu Changqing's gloomy face is impeccably gloomy, and in his bones is the aloofness passed down from his ancestors and the hostility that has been battle-tested. He averted his eyes.

Seeing that Lu Changqing was so childish, Feng Qi gave Xin Bo a wry smile, stood up slowly, "...let's talk over there."

Feng Qi opened his mouth, his voice was so weak that the wind blew it away, Lu Changqing couldn't bear to brush his face.He only had Feng Qi in his eyes, he paid no attention to Xin Bo, and walked past him with a cold face.The moment they passed each other, Xin Bo felt a chilling oppressive feeling.

Feng Qi called Xin Bo to the forest, turned around, but lifted the hem of his clothes and wanted to bow down to him.Xin Bo hurriedly supported him, lowered his voice, and cried: "Master of the State Teacher!"

Feng Qi couldn't help but sigh, "Young master...you have grown so big...back then..."

Back then, King Wen firmly believed that Yingzhuo would go down to earth to destroy his dynasty and bring disaster to Haojing's son, and he listened to the slander that he wanted to keep his youngest son to die.After Feng Qi persuaded him to exile, he secretly sent the young master to Ji State and entrusted him to his friend Ji Hou.

Xin Bo cried: "...The life of Liu Shen was given by Lord Fengqi, how dare you accept the gift from him... For so many years, I can only hear some news about you in Haojing in Ji Kingdom, but I can't meet you... "

The two held hands to talk about the old days, and the young master said deeply: "The national teacher was held hostage by that Lu Changqing?"

Feng Qi smiled lightly and said, "Why did you say that, young master?"

The young master said deeply: "I have also heard about what Lu Changqing did to you in Haojing in Ji Guo. When the dog army is retired, I will definitely kill this fellow for the national teacher!"

"Qing Kingdom's cavalry is great. If Lu Changqing can attack Gaojing once, he can attack Gaojing a second time, leaving disaster behind." Young Master Liu Shen saw that Feng Qi was noncommittal, and went further.

The disaster of staying, I have thought about it before, but when I heard this from someone else, I felt that it was not pleasant.Feng Qi seemed to be in deep thought, but did not respond to Young Master Liu Shen.Back then, King Gong's mother strongly urged King Wen to kill the son to keep the matter in mind, so he may not have the heart of revenge after the death of King Gong.However, Lu Changqing killed the royal family after all, and this conspiracy left the young master with deep resentment and anxiety.If Lu Changqing still holds the military power, if the son Liushen is Jianzuo in the future, he will definitely kill him and Miqing.

When Feng Qi walked into the military tent, his face became more and more tired.Lu Changqing was fiddling with a few pebbles in his hand, and was studying the formation.Feng Qi cupped his collar with one hand and tilted his head to cough, while holding hot tea in the other.

"Ah Man, let's have a cup of tea." He said softly.

Lu Changqing raised his head and chuckled, "Didn't you poison me?"

Feng Qi was startled, and slowly broke into a wry smile.He picked up the teacup and was about to drink it, but Lu Changqing grabbed his wrist.

"You stomped on your wrist, don't grab it, it hurts." Feng Qi said hoarsely.

Lu Changqing let go of his hand, took the teacup in his hand, and drank the tea in one gulp.

"What kind of expression did you have just now?" Lu Changqing snorted after drinking, sat back and continued to play with the formation.

"What expression?" Feng Qi smiled lightly, swept away the look of loneliness between his brows, and stood behind him.

"A bitter face, as if about to cry, it doesn't look like you at all." Lu Changqing said.

Feng Qi remained silent, looking down at the nape of Lu Changqing's Qingqiu collar.Slowly, slowly, he lowered his body and put his face on that neck.

Lu Changqing remained motionless for a moment.

Feng Qi rubbed his lips on his skin nonchalantly, and said softly: "I have something to ask Ah Man."

Lu Changqing didn't speak, it seemed that all his energy had been concentrated on the soft and wriggling touch of the back of his neck and the warm blowing, and he seemed to acquiesce in his question.Such intimate contact with the body gives people the illusion that the heart is also close.

Feng Qi's voice was gentle and low, as if he was drunk, but standing behind Lu Changqing, his pair of phoenix eyes were extremely cautious, even so calm that it was scary.

"...Is Ah Man always afraid of me leaving?"

Lu Changqing's heart beat violently, and even his body trembled.

Feng Qi felt his shock, and there was no need for him to answer.He was not very happy in his heart, but there was a bit of bitterness instead.He continued in a low voice: "If I want to stay away from this dispute between the government and the opposition, find a deserted mountain forest, and spend my days resting on stones, will you go with me?"

"Even if you hate me, no matter how you treat me, I swear never to leave you."

After being silent for a long time, Lu Changqing sneered slightly: "You want me to put down my military power and become a wild man, don't you?"

Seeing that he understood his intention, Feng Qi felt unexpectedly bitter in his heart.

Lu Changqing continued: "If I let go of the military power, will others let me go? That is not seclusion, but imprisonment."

Feng Qi straightened up slowly, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "...An old man like me, who wants to seduce you shamelessly, is really humiliating himself."

Lu Changqing's eyebrows throbbed faintly. How cruel is this man's heart? He can twist his feelings for a corrupt dynasty. In his eyes, even feelings can be used as bargaining chips.This man has no bottom line at all, he can't be worse, he is just the sword and shield of this country, he is just a dead thing without a heart.

For a dead thing, it is foolish to invest such intense emotion in oneself.

However, looking at Feng Qi's slender and slender back, walking out lonely but gracefully, Lu Changqing felt a deep fear.He felt that once Feng Qi left today, he would never come back.

No matter how humble and ruthless this man is, he still wants to have him.

In an instant, Lu Changqing got up suddenly, grabbed him with his backhand, and turned over the small table with his movements, and all the stones used to make the formation fell to the ground with a crackling sound.His eyes were burning, and the ice in his eyes had been melted into water by the flames bursting out from the depths of his pupils. His voice was deep and powerful, "... even if it's imprisonment, it's okay, Feng Qi, don't break your promise."

Feng Qi froze when he heard the words.

Lu Changqing was always beyond Feng Qi's expectations.Maybe it's hard for someone like him who seldom uses emotion to understand Lu Changqing.

Lu Changqing's body was getting heavier and heavier on him, and he couldn't hold on, so he had to forcefully put him on the blanket.The drug in the tea played a role, and Lu Changqing fell into a drowsy sleep.This young man's face is very different from Mr. Qi Tong's. His eyes are cold and hot, and the intense emotion wants to set him on fire, which often makes him afraid.

"Aman, when you wake up, I won't be here." Feng Qi stroked Lu Changqing's cheek like a child, and said softly, "You have to wait for me to come back, we made an agreement, and I won't break my promise. "

In the evening, Ji Hou went to fight in front of the dog army camp again, and the two armies clashed again.Amidst the roar of war drums, there was a stream of zither sounds, gurgling in.

An elegantly decorated carriage appeared on the outskirts of the battlefield, and the carriage was surrounded by lavender gauze curtains, fluttering with the mountain wind from time to time.In the tent is a handsome man, playing the piano freely.The simple and quiet sound of the piano is moving, and the rhythm of fighting on the battlefield seems to have slowed down.

The sound of the piano gradually faded, and the man stretched out a pale and slender hand, and gently opened the gauze curtain.

When Ao Chenfu, the leader of the dog army, saw him, his pupils shrank tightly, his complexion turned yellowish at first, and then turned livid again.

Purple clothes, red phoenix eyes, a glance and a three-point smile, but he is the most feared man on the battlefield.

"... Yaodao, you are a human or a ghost!" Ao Chen burst out words full of hatred from his throat.

Feng Qi stunned Lu Changqing, and went to Jihou's tent alone, just to show his face in front of the dog warrior who hated him to the bone, and inspire him to send troops to chase after him.On the battlefield, the competition is not so much the strategy and strength, but the heart.

Feng Qifeng's eyes were slightly raised, she smiled and said nothing, she calmly put down the gauze curtain, and the carriage rocked gently to the south.The gauze curtain was gently lifted, and his hair was tied up with a crimson belt.The scarlet headband, like the red letter of a poisonous snake, danced wildly in the wind.
