spring water

Chunshui's knife could clearly penetrate between Song Manjun's ribs, stabbing straight into her heart and killing her.But in the process of dropping the knife, Song Manzhen saw her hesitation.

The blade changed direction at the last moment and pierced Song Manjun's abdomen.

The reins were stopped just before Song Manzhen's blood-stained chariot was strangled by the tiger's mouth. Song Manzhen let go of the reins, but he didn't know what to do with the scene in front of him.

Chun Shui pulled out the dagger, blood flowed out quickly, Song Manjun looked at Chun Shui with cold sweat covering his wound.

"One knife is for me, one knife is for Mother Lu. Whether you live or die in the future is none of my business." Chunshui jumped off the chariot and walked straight into the depths of the forest. Ask Song Manjun:

"Are you ok?"

"I can't die for a while."

Song Manzhen stood in front of her, but his eyes had already gone with the spring water.

Song Manjun sat up and said with a smile: "You can let her go, you are the most benevolent to me. If you are not a real sister, I am afraid you would like to cut me into pieces, right?"

Song Manzhen replied firmly: "That's right."

Song Manjun laughed "hehe" endlessly: "The child is grown up, I am very relieved that you can tell black from right. Go ahead and protect your little Chunshui. And I still have things to do."

"Why do you all have so many obsessions that you must do?"

"If you don't have to do it, what kind of obsession is it?" Song Manjun's eyes were softer than ever, "Just like you and Chunshui, don't you also have the deepest obsession for each other?"

Obsession with this kind of thing, once contaminated, this life will be endless.

"Why do you follow me?" Chunshui didn't look back but found that Song Manzhen was following her. "My two knives were actually merciless. Although they didn't hit the fatal point, they were enough to pose a threat to her. If you don't stay by her side..."

"She has something to do, and I can't stop her."

Looking back in Chunshui, Song Manzhen was dressed in a white dress with pink tulle on top, looking fresh and eye-catching among the desolate woods in winter.

"Aren't you worried that she won't come back?"

"She has her own life to fulfill. Compared to her, I am more worried about you."

Chun Shui sighed: "So I'm too delicate and crippled to make you worry?"

"That's not the reason at all..."

"I stabbed your own sister twice, don't you hate me?"

"It's a more difficult thing to explain."

"Yeah, between us..." In the middle of speaking, Song Manzhen's expression suddenly froze, and he rushed over quickly, hugging Chunshui and rolling forward swiftly.Chun Shui was hugged tightly in her arms and couldn't see things around him clearly, only heard the sound of arrow feathers piercing through the air into the soil.

The violent rolling stopped, and when Song Manzhen got up, Chunshui clearly saw two arrows stuck in her shoulder.

"you……"

Song Manzhen didn't give her a chance to speak, pulled her up from the ground and ran deep into the woods.

"Fire arrows!"

Chun Shui was most familiar with the voice commanding the attack behind him——Liu Yutang!

She went out on her own!

Fortunately, the wooded terrain of the forest gave them very good cover, and most of the arrows were blocked by tree trunks.Song Manzhen dragged Chunshui and twisted and ran around the tree trunk, making all the arrows fired by the archers miss.

"Chase!"

"Yes!"

Chun Shui knew very well that the people Liu Yutang dispatched in person must be highly skilled in martial arts, but how did they find their location in such a short time?

There was a sharp bird song above his head, Chun Shui looked up, and it was a crow!

It turns out that crows are most familiar with the smell of poppy flowers. Liu Yutang knows that Chun Shui has taken poppy petals for a long time, and the smell is left in his body, which cannot be smelled by ordinary people, but crows can track them all the way.

Song Manzhen was hit by two arrows in the back, and while sprinting, he reached out to his back to take the arrows out.

"No!" Chun Shui hurriedly stopped her, "This arrow has a barb at the end, if you take it out with force, it will enlarge the wound."

Song Manzhen glanced back, how fast the pursuers were walking, and they were already close in front of them.

Song Manzhen looked at Chunshui beside him, "Maybe we are going to die here."

Throat is itchy, and the feeling of wanting to cough is endless.Chun Shui tried his best to endure, if he coughed suddenly, he would cough up a big mouthful of blood again, and the pursuers behind him would definitely take them down!

Must hold back!

"It's too early to give up now." Chunshui has experienced life and death moments, big and small, although she did take poison for a long time to leave this depressing world forever.But she never thought of dying in such a place. She couldn't help herself all her life, and in the end she always had to choose a place for her to sleep forever. This was her last thought.

This right cannot be taken away!Can't!

"Empress Yanxiao."

Chun Shui and Song Manzhen's galloping pace stopped instantly, and Liu Yutang and her bodyguards had already circled in front of them on horseback.

"Don't bother to escape, you can't escape." Sitting on the BMW, Liu Yutang was wrapped in a maroon robe, wearing a general's crown and buckskin boots, and a seven-star long sword in his hand. The radiant light below is very impressive, but there is no trace of the scholar's elegance, "The entire mountain and the forest are surrounded by me, you can't escape with your wings."

The soldiers slowly shrunk the encirclement, Chunshui couldn't help coughing violently, Song Manzhen supported her to prevent her from falling.Chun Shui coughed forcefully, and blood spurted out from between his fingers.

"Chunshui, what's the matter with you?" Song Manzhen felt a little hopeless. If Chunshui could stand side by side with her, maybe they would still have a chance to escape, but now both of them were seriously injured, and there was no breakthrough as far as they could see. How does the body rush out?

Are you going to catch him without a fight?

"Manzhen, listen to me." Chunshui's breath was very weak, and her voice naturally became quieter, so small that only she and Song Manzhen could hear it, "I will attract their attention in a while, and I will Hold them back, and you will take the opportunity to escape..."

Song Manzhen laughed when Chunshui said halfway: "Chunshui, in your heart, am I the kind of person who would use you as a shield to escape alone? No matter life or death, I will be with you."

This kind of words sounds really sweet.If it was normal, Chun Shui would definitely feel bored.

Love words are sweet, but the most empty, just want to be happy for a while, how many people are really fools?

Maybe Song Manzhen is one of the few fools.

Looking at the strong soldiers coming with shining weapons, Chun Shui and Song Manzhen were back to back, without a trace of fear.

If you die here, this life is enough.

"Take them down!" With an order, Liu Yutang saw Song Manzhen and Chunshui surrounded by weapons, his smiling face sank slowly, and tears slowly pooled in his eyes.

Whoever has never had a breeze in his sleeves is not an ignorant teenager.

At the very beginning, everyone is sincere, but it's a pity that the entrustment is not human.

Liu Yutang closed his eyes, his heart had already been hacked into pieces.

Just let her die, from now on, no matter where Jiang Shan goes, she will never be able to see her face again, and there will be no pain in her heart.Chun Shui, in this life we ​​are considered a tie.

"Director Liu, be careful!"

Liu Yutang was immersed in grief and didn't realize that someone was approaching behind him!The only guard who stayed behind obviously did not expect someone to sneak attack at this pass and was killed with a single knife.Before Liu Yutang could turn around, a dagger was attached to her neck, her tears dripped on it, and her expression froze.

Song Manjun was panting, his whole body was soaked in blood, and his breath was like a thread, but the movements of holding her were vague at all.

"I didn't expect... to meet again, brother Liu."

"Song Manjun, are you still alive?"

"I was going to die, but thinking that there is still one person who hasn't been killed, I can't just let it go in this life. Let them stop first, it's important to do business..."

Liu Yutang didn't move, Song Manjun never knew what it means to be soft-hearted, he cut the opponent's delicate neck with a knife, and the blood spattered on the spot.

Liu Yutang's eyes widened and he hurriedly covered the wound on his neck with his hands, and hoarsely shouted to the soldiers in front, "Stop, stop!"

The change came too fast, and all the soldiers and Song Manzhen and Chunshui, who were scarred and already ready to die, did not expect such a turnaround.They supported each other to stand up from the pool of blood, and found that it was Song Manjun who changed everything.

"Let them both go." Song Manjun said in Liu Yutang's ear.

The front of Liu Yutang's clothes was covered in blood, and his throat seemed to be cut. With a wave of her arm, the soldiers gave way.

"Song Manjun..." Song Manzhen stared at Song Manjun, whom she had been afraid of since childhood and had always disliked. For some reason, looking at her face at this moment, she felt that her facial features were so similar to her own.

"Okay, don't be like a child. You go, go as far as the ends of the earth, don't be persecuted by bad people like us anymore."

Chun Shui wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and met Liu Yutang's gaze.

Liu Yutang's eyes radiated a kind of death light, but there was no fear in her expression, she let the blood flow freely, her eyes only stared at Chunshui.

But, like any other time in the past, Chunshui turned his face away and didn't go to see her.

"Take me to the palace." Song Manzhen gave Liu Yutang the final order.

She still wants to go back.

Song Manjun is always looking back, but Song Manzhen is always walking forward.

They were born under the same roof, but have different life trajectories, perhaps because of their temperament.

The green hills are endless. When Song Manzhen and Chunshui held hands and supported each other and climbed over the hill, looking up from a distance, Liu Yutang, Song Manjun, and soldiers from the Xia Dynasty could no longer be seen, only a stretch of green hills and slowly approaching dark clouds remained. .

The cold wind was blowing, cutting their wounds, Song Manzhen calmly embraced Chunshui into her arms.

Chunshui stayed quietly in Song Manzhen's arms, just like their first hug.

"After all, she couldn't escape her own demons, and her whole life was ruined in the hands of Zhen Zhen." Chun Shui's eyelashes were gradually dyed white.

"Isn't Liu Yutang's whole life ruined by your hands?" Song Manzhen sighed, with an element of teasing in her tone, "My whole life was almost ruined by your hands too."

"Almost? So it won't be ruined by me now?"

Hearing Chunshui's lively tone, Song Manzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Let them resolve other people's love and hatred. The love that belongs to us can still be extended.

73 end

The mountain path is always difficult to walk after it has rained. The scholar was a little tired from walking. He wiped the sweat from his temples with his sleeve, straightened his waist and looked up. In front of his eyes were all flying boulders, and the top was hidden by clouds and mist. There is nowhere to be seen at all.

The scholar turned the bookcase behind him, gritted his teeth and continued on the road.After taking two steps, I suddenly heard the voice of a little girl humming a little song behind me.The scholar was surprised, how could there be a little girl on this rugged mountain road?He turned around and saw a girl in red with a basket walking towards him with light steps, turning her head and smiling at him as she passed by him.

The scholar felt that the little girl was fresh and cute and wanted to smile back, so he heard the other party say: "The big man climbs the mountain so slowly, I saw you when I was at the foot of the mountain, and now I caught up with you. "

"..." The scholar was blushed by her words, but he had nowhere to refute, and asked with a smile, "Little girl, aren't you afraid of walking the mountain road alone?"

"There is nothing to be afraid of. I have been going up and down the mountain by myself since I was six years old. I was born in the mountains and grew up in the mountains. The whole mountain is my home."

"In this way, I dare to ask the girl, how long will it take to cross this mountain?"

"Hey, judging by your pace, it must be night. This mountain is safe with the singing of birds and flowers during the day, but at night, all the birds and beasts come out to look for food, and the wolves, tigers and leopards bite you one by one. You There's only a skeleton left."

The scholar trembled when she said it, his face turned green all of a sudden.

Seeing his genuinely worried appearance, the little girl couldn't help laughing, and stood on the higher side of the mountain road and patted him on the shoulder: "Well, for the sake of your weakness, I will let you stay at my house tonight." Stay overnight!"

"Thank you for your kindness..."

"Why, you are not happy to see you like this?"

"No, no, no..."

"That means I feel like a monster, afraid that I will tie you into a hole and eat you?"

The scholar nodded honestly.

"Okay, then you just stay here and wait to be eaten by wild beasts. See you again, my lord." The little girl left after saying that, and the scholar followed her without saying a word.The little girl played tricks on purpose, and walked very fast, and the scholar followed behind, panting again and again.

Fortunately, there was a little girl leading the way ahead to guide the scholar to speed up his pace. He had already reached the top of the mountain before sunset, but it was a bit difficult to go down the mountain.

The scholar saw the little girl walking all the way to a hut. The hut was simple but carefully decorated. There were many flowers and plants planted in front of the small bridge and flowing water house, which was very interesting.

"Mom!" The little girl quickly walked across the wooden bridge and ran towards a young woman who was cutting flowers.

"Shen'er came back late today, where did you go to be naughty?" The woman stood up and stroked the little girl's head, the little girl pouted displeased:

"Shen'er can't be naughty, Shen'er is going to pick the mushrooms that mother loves most." Saying that, he offered a basket, all kinds of mushrooms in the basket looked very delicious.

"Shen'er, good boy, mother will make you delicious mushroom soup tonight."

"Mother is the best!"

The scholar saw that the woman was still young, although she had clear soup and little water and no heavy makeup, she looked very beautiful, she didn't seem to be at such a young age.

The woman also found the scholar, and smiled at him: "Your Excellency, you are on your way. The sun is about to set, and it is very dangerous to travel at night. If you don't mind, why don't you rest at my place tonight?"

The scholar was a little hesitant, how could a family pop up out of nowhere in the barren mountains, and the mistress was so beautiful?

Just thinking about it, another woman walked out of the house. The woman was holding a ladle in her hand, her feet were a little broken, but her appearance was even more beautiful. For a while, the scholar concluded that this was a demon house created by a goblin.

"Shen'er." The woman holding the ladle glanced at the scholar and frowned at Shen'er, "Why did you bring a stranger here?"

Shen'er pursed his lips in displeasure: "Shen'er didn't bring it, he wanted to follow him!"

"Okay, okay, Chunshui, don't blame Shen'er, Shen'er is also kind." The woman who just cut the flowers hurriedly smoothed things over.

Chun Shui withdrew his gaze from the scholar, and said in a low voice, "I'm always reluctant to look at those scholars' pious appearance."

The scholar was embarrassed: I heard everything, okay?

The woman who cut the flowers waved to the scholar: "Go inside and rest, the sun is going to set soon."

The scholar kissed the aroma of the food, and his stomach growled in disappointment.At the same time, the beast in the woods called out to come out of the cave, and the scholar trembled and followed into the house.

The scholar put the bookcase on the ground, and saw that although the room was simple, it was decorated very warmly. The woman who sucked the water was cooking mushroom soup, and while stirring the thick soup in the country, she said to another woman: "Manzhen , come and help me make the fire a little stronger."

Song Manzhen sat in front of the stove, picked up the firewood and pushed aside the almost burned firewood inside, and used new firewood to build a "herringbone" shape, allowing more air to enter, and the fire suddenly flourished.

After the fire was hot, Song Manzhen got up and took two steamed buns and a stack of vegetables and put them in front of the scholar: "Your Excellency, eat some first, and drink some to warm up when the soup is ready."

The scholar had driven for a day, and was already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back. He didn't care whether these were tricks conjured up by monsters. After thanking him, he ate it regardless of his image—besides, how can there be a monster with such a light taste? ?

Song Manzhen sat across from the scholar and asked him, "Does your Excellency know how old you are now?"

The scholar replied: "Shu Chang has been around for 21 years."

"Really? The days go by really quickly..."

Chun Shui brought up some sliced ​​bacon, and Shen'er went to serve the rice.

"Who is the current emperor?" Chun Shui asked.

The scholar beat his chest and tried to swallow the steamed bun: "Emperor? Isn't the emperor Xia Zhengyuan?" Anyway, it's okay to call the emperor's name directly on this person, the emperor will definitely not hear it.

"Really?" Chun Shui remained silent after listening to it, and went back to watch the mushroom soup.

The scholar saw that her complexion was not good, and asked Song Manzhen with some fear: "Did I say something wrong?"

Song Manzhen smiled and said, "Don't worry, she's used to being in the mountains, and she's not good at communicating with people."

The scholar hurriedly said with a smile: "It's not a problem, it's not a problem, I also want to thank you for taking me in so that I won't be wrapped up in the belly of a wild beast."

The scholar said that she went to the imperial city to rush for the exam, and thanks to the help of kind-hearted people, she had no way to repay her, so she could only leave a letter and stamp it with her personal seal.

"If Xiaosheng has the opportunity to be the top student in high school in the future, I will definitely come to thank you two!"

The scholar started his journey early in the morning of the second day, Shen'er was still sleeping, Chunshui and Song Manzhen stood on the top of the mountain holding hands and watched the scholar go down the mountain.

"No. [-] in high school? Hehe, he knows that there is a No. [-] student beside me."

Song Manzhen glanced at Chunshui in her arms, thinking that their lives have been the same since they lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests. Three years ago, they picked up Shen'er, whose life was hanging by a thread at the foot of the mountain, and their lives became more enjoyable.

"You have looked down on everything in the world, but others may not. There is no need to take this kind of thing to heart, right?" Song Manzhen comforted Chunshui.In fact, she understood why Chunshui hated scholars, and Liu Yutang had a scholarly temperament back then.Although Liu Yutang looks gentle, but Liu Yutang has done too many evil things, it is forgivable for Chunshui to dislike her and those who are similar to her.

It seems that there is nothing unforgivable.

Song Manjun took Liu Yutang back to the palace back then. The specific details were not known to Song Manzhen, but in the end the emperor was killed and the assassin was killed with thousands of arrows on the spot. This is the most widely circulated official answer.

Come to think of it, there has been no news from Song Manjun for so many years, Master Song and his wife visited Song Manzhen several times and did not mention the eldest sister, perhaps, she is indeed no longer alive.

Song Manzhen sometimes thinks, maybe this is a good thing.Song Manjun has been looking for a balance point for Long Zhen all her life. In the end, she killed Long Zhen's enemy with her own hands as revenge, and then went with Long Zhen. They have stayed together in the underworld for many years, right?

It's just that Liu Yutang's whereabouts are unknown, and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. Three years ago, a passing official mentioned that he was no longer Liu Yutang when he was in charge of military aircraft.

"Liu Yutang must be dead." Chun Shui said, "It's impossible for God to keep her."

Regarding this matter, Song Manzhen never argues with Chunshui.

At the beginning, Chun Shui took Yingyi's petals to harm herself, and she also said afterwards that she had no interest in living.

Because she always felt that she could no longer be with Song Manzhen, because she wanted to kill Song Manzhen's sister.

She had a chance to kill Song Manjun, and Song Manjun was also in a state of being caught without a fight. It was just a mistake, and she didn't really do it.

Song Manzhen asked Chun Shui, why didn't you kill her at that time?

Chunshui said that at the moment she raised the knife, Song Manjun's face and Song Manzhen's suddenly overlapped, thinking that Song Manjun still had a wish that he had always wanted to fulfill, so the knife deviated from the direction.

"Although you have been talking about revenge, you can't take anyone's life." Song Manzhen seemed to see through Chunshui, "You can't kill."

Chunshui originally wanted to refute Song Manzhen, but didn't want Song Manzhen to see through it at a glance.But looking back, I didn't bother to get angry with her.

"It's not easy for everyone to live. Many people are struggling in the cracks, just to take a look at the blue sky..."

I don't know if it's because he's getting old, but Chunshui always likes to sigh recently, and what he says seems to be a reflection of life.

At that time, the poppy flower poison broke out, Chunshui coughed from night to dawn, and vomited an unknown amount of blood.I thought it was God's will to trick people, the two finally got together, but they were about to be separated from Yin and Yang. The illness has not improved for more than two years, and Chunshui's body is getting weaker day by day.Unexpectedly, the picked up Shen'er is young, but he is proficient in medical skills, and he also has a good understanding of poppy poison.She told Song Manzhen the prescription for detoxification, and asked her to boil Chunshui according to the prescription every day.At first, none of them believed that such a homeless child who might fall while walking could be cured. They just had the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Song Manzhen gave Chunshui a few doses of medicine, but who knew that Chunshui's cough was cured. Very quickly.

After nine hundred and eleven, the poppy flower poison was completely removed.

Song Manzhen was puzzled, who is this Shen'er?Why are you so accomplished at such a young age?

At that time, Chunshui looked at Shen'er who was sitting on the small wooden bridge in the distance watching the small fish in the water, and said, "Look at her, does she look like your eldest sister?"

This sentence made Song Manzhen stunned for a long time.

Indeed, no matter in terms of personality or medical ability, she is very similar to Song Manjun...

"But when my eldest sister passed away, Shen'er must have been two years old."

"You." Chun Shui tapped the tip of Song Manzhen's nose, "Everything is so serious, can you be a little more romantic? It really hurts your nice name."

After Chunshui laughed, Song Manzhen went to call Shen'er for dinner. Song Manzhen looked at Chunshui's limping back, and suddenly remembered that Chunshui broke his leg.

It turned out that after getting used to being alone, even everything about her became a matter of course.

After lunch that day, the family went down the mountain for a walk.

Walking to the shade of willow trees on the river bank, I suddenly heard a mournful cry.They turned around and saw that there was a wounded deer under the willow tree, looking at them.

"Its leg is injured." Song Manzhen approached cautiously, and the deer stared at her warily, Song Manzhen did not dare to go any further, for fear that it would escape.

Chun Shui stepped forward, but the little deer didn't move, and his eyes looking at Chun Shui became softer.

"It likes you." Song Manzhen smiled.

"I don't like it." Chun Shui replied straightforwardly.

The willow tree, the deer, the eyes that go crazy at the sight of spring water...

Unfortunate Liu Yutang, but you came to the door again?

Tear off a corner of the skirt, and asked Shen'er to pick some herbs to stop the bleeding and wrap Xiaolu's injured leg. Chunshui pulled Song Manzhen away.

"I thought you would save her home." Song Manzhen said.

Chun Shui sighed: "Shen'er picks up a bird and two cats every two days, do you think there are not enough animals in the house?"

"Mother!" Shen'er protested.

"Okay, let's go."

Chunshui didn't turn his head back, not caring about the deer's life or death.

The thing about love in this world is the most annoying thing, and things like you have love and I have no intention are happening frequently every day.

Fortunately, I met Yixin in my lifetime, and I only wish to stay with her forever.

The author has something to say: I finally finished writing this article... This is indeed a tormenting process.

Chun Shui wrote this article very smoothly at the beginning, and I liked it very much. The general plot was in my mind and I wrote it very quickly.To be honest, there is only a general direction for the subsequent development, so I started frequent Calvin.Thank you for your patience, don't rush to update, so that this article can be successfully concluded in the end.

There are still many deficiencies. I have never been confident in ancient prose, and I also understand that the level of ancient prose is too low.Although I have been working hard to improve and break through, I always feel that a lot of things are missing.

This article can be regarded as a fair style of writing, and it does not involve time travel. It is a challenge for myself.

Of course, you still want to continue to write ancient prose, and I hope that when you have the opportunity to write another ancient prose, you can still be there, and you can provide valuable advice for you.
