Chapter 55 Chapter Twelve Sees Zhuge Again

The night wind is cold, and there are bonfires everywhere. The Daxia imperial tent covers a huge area. It is made of snow deer fur in the northwest, painted with black sea gold powder, decorated with dragon beads, painted with colorful embroidered dragons, east beads for eyes, and cinnabar on the mouth. The sharp claws are ferocious.Two huge oil tanks are placed in front of the big tent door, the torches are flickering, dazzling, the tall flags are unfurled, surrounded by imperial guards, surrounded by bright armor.Looking from a distance, the bright yellow imperial camp is like a dragon of the East China Sea dormant in the dark, exuding a huge momentum and unparalleled majesty. Blocked out.

"My lord," Ah Jing quietly approached Yan Xun's ear, and whispered, "Someone is sneaking up to the camp, do you want to do it?" In the darkness, the man raised his brows lightly, frowned slightly, and said in a puzzled voice, "Who is it?" Ah Jing respectfully replied: "I don't know, but it doesn't look like a member of the Mu He family." "Let me go and have a look." Chu Qiao stepped forward and whispered. Yan Xun nodded, and said in a low tone, "Be careful, don't use force if it is not necessary, the dinner party is coming soon, I will wait for you."

"Don't worry, Zalu's people may be here to make trouble, I'll go back as soon as I go." After all, he took Ah Jing and walked towards the camp. "Ah Chu?" Seeing Chu Qiao leave, Zhao Song was taken aback for a moment, and immediately yelled loudly, making a gesture to catch up. "Your Highness Thirteen," Yan Xun held Zhao Song's arm and said with a faint smile, "Ah Chu has something to do, I'll be back later, let's go first." Zhao Song was reluctantly dragged away by Yan Xun, and kept looking back as he walked. The cold wind mixed with wind and snow hits the face head-on, the sound of horseshoes, the torches and lights on both sides gradually become scarce, under the dark sky, the cold moon is like a knife, the stars are few, the sky looks high and far away, dark and deep, and there are goshawk wings from time to time Passed by, sending out a long and fluttering sound.

In the blink of an eye, it has been eight years since she came to this unknown dynasty, and life has never given her the opportunity and right to play games in the world. The bad environment, endless killings, and tragic blood have been forcing her to stop Fight and flee.There are too many unknown variables in front of her eyes, too many uncontrollable traps and conspiracies hidden somewhere, and too many hopeless situations one after another are urging her to move forward, making her unable to stop.She is not a born killer, let alone a born robber, she just wants to maintain the simple distinction between good and evil in her heart on the premise of survival.

The world is not benevolent, and everything is a humble dog.The edge of destroying the world hangs upside down, but if you pick it up, it may be the blade of salvation that overturns the world. "Drive!" Chu Qiao snarled, and galloped on the horse, galloping at top speed on the open and snowy field. The sound of hoofbeats came from a distance, and a man in black rode alone on the vast snowfield.Chu Qiao and the others groaned and reined in their horses. Ah Jing frowned and said in a deep voice, "Girl, this person is wrong. He came from the direction of our camp." A Yan Wei stepped forward and shouted at the person, "Hey! Who are you?"

As soon as the words fell, before he had time to take a breath, a bright flying knife pierced the cold and silent night sky. It was like lightning, and it was astonishing. . With a sound of "clang", the swords collided, and a dazzling spark burst out in the darkness.Ah Jing drew his sword backhand and split the flying knife, bent his bow and shouted sharply: "Who is here? Such viciousness!" The man also seemed to notice the large number of people ahead, so he turned around and rode westward cunningly.Chu Qiao raised her eyebrows when she saw it, and shouted in a low voice: "Chasing!" Everyone agreed, and they all rode their horses and ran wildly, chasing behind.

The distant mountains are dark, the dense forests are like ink, and the huge snowfield looks like a ferocious white beast. Countless horseshoes step on it, and the snowflakes splash and roar. Suddenly, there were many figures in front of him, and it seemed that a large number of people were coming.The war horse was silent and quiet, but in its neat pace, it revealed an indescribable chill and murderous aura.Chu Qiao was startled, she raised her hand and yelled lightly, reined in her horse and stopped, but before she could speak, the desperate man in black who was being chased by the Yan guards immediately picked up his bow and crossbow, and shot at the people on the opposite side!

"who?" A loud shout sounded suddenly, the night was deep and the distance was so far, it was impossible to see who was coming from the opposite side.The people on the opposite side were ambushed, and for a moment, they regarded the Yan guards as accomplices who came with the man in black in front, the sound of drawing a knife suddenly sounded, the sword was sharp, and the arrows came from the sky, and the opponent's counterattack and The ability to react is surprisingly fast! "Stop!" Ah Jing yelled, "We're not..." Before she could finish her sentence, a sharp arrow suddenly shot towards her. Chu Qiao was quick-sighted, put one hand on the horse's back, flew up, kicked Ah Jing's lower abdomen, the man was in pain, his body bent, There was only a muffled pop, and the arrow pierced into the flesh. Although it avoided the vital point in his heart, it still pierced fiercely on his shoulder.

Chu Qiao's brows were furrowed immediately, the other party was indiscriminate, killing people without finding out what happened, it was really abominable.The girl was dressed in snow-white fur. She rode forward, rolled over and jumped off, knelt on one knee, holding a huge crossbow, her face was serious, her eyes were as cold as a leopard staring at the dark snow field opposite her, her ears moved slightly, her brows frowned. Locked tightly, the cold wind blows through the hair on her forehead, and the girl's eyes are like lightning, flashing sharp edges. "blow!" A powerful arrow immediately left Chu Qiao's full-stretched bow, going like lightning, menacing and intimidating, leaving only a bright white edge, almost sparking in the air, and shooting into the dark night of the funeral.

Almost at the same time, in the darkness on the opposite side, there was the sound of vibrating bowstrings at the same time, and a sharp arrow left the string and suddenly rushed towards Chu Qiao. The two bolts of lightning whizzed along the same trajectory, at an astonishing speed, moving forward without hesitation, everyone was dumbfounded, only heard a crackling sound, the two arrows collided in mid-air, broke at the same time, and shattered on the vast snow field. In an instant, Chu Qiao used an astonishing technique to constantly change positions and figures, change the trajectory and strength of the arrows, and shoot seven arrows in a row.And the opponent also used the same unpredictable means to fight back one by one.

In mid-air, only the sound of swishing arrows and the crackling sound of arrows hitting each other could be heard, tit for tat, evenly matched! The violent voice disappeared all of a sudden, Chu Qiao's eyes were sharp, she squinted slightly, she touched the last three arrows in the quiver with her fingers, quietly waiting for the best time. A strong wind suddenly blew up, and snow was flying all over the place. Everyone blindfolded their eyes unconsciously to protect themselves from the wind and sand.However, in the darkness, only two people burst into flames at the same time, running and exerting force, three arrows were shot out in unison, one after another, shooting towards the front, shooting stars out of the night like moon after month The shining cold light.There was a crackling sound, and the arrows of the four strong arrows folded in half, turned into a ball of powder, and the strong wind blew, but the last sharp arrow seemed to have eyes. Under the witness of the white snow in the sky, it came from two directions. The arrows passed by, bringing up a stream of shining sparks, heading towards the hiding place of the other party, and rushed towards the other party's hiding place! In an instant, Chu Qiao was like a raging wild beast, her whole body was filled with violent explosive force, she dropped the bow and crossbow, put her right hand on the ground, bounced off the ground, and stood up with the strength of her waist.However, there was a sharp swish, and the arrow flew past her neck with fiery force, leaving a dark red bloodstain. "Girl!" Yan Wei was startled, Qi Qi chased after her, Chu Qiao stood up, stretched out her hand to cover her neck that was beginning to ooze blood, she remained silent, her eyes stared coldly at the darkness opposite. She knew that the person on the opposite side also escaped her killing arrow, but he was also slightly injured just like her. The surroundings were quiet and silent, the night was pitch black, and heavy snow was flying, but through the heavy darkness, she could still feel the cold eyes, with the sharpness of the cold, shooting over from a distance. A goshawk's screech suddenly streaked across the sky, and in the darkness between the two sides, a vigorous shadow suddenly got up from the ground, and the man in black who had been lying on the ground and provoking troubles suddenly ran like a projectile. , just wanted to escape from this place of right and wrong. Almost at the same time, Chu Qiao and the archer opposite pulled out their swords from their waists at the same time and threw them like thunder. The body of the running man trembled, his eyes widened, and he lowered his head unwillingly I could see the two swords protruding from the chest, and then fell heavily on the snow with a bang. Time passed slowly, and there was no sound from either side. One Yan Wei stepped forward cautiously, and when he saw that the other party had no response, he shouted loudly: "My friend on the other side, we are hunting for the thief. It was just a misunderstanding." There was no sound and no response.Yanwei Zuotang rode forward, and after a while, there was a sound of hooves among the people on the opposite side. "Girl," after a while, Zuo Tang ran back, got off his horse, handed back Chu Qiao's saber, and said in a deep voice, "Your sword." The girl raised her eyebrows: "What is the background of the other party?" "I don't know," Zuo Tang reported truthfully, "The other party's bodyguard is wearing a black fur coat. It's a very common style. It looks strange, and I've never seen it before." Chu Qiao remained indifferent, nodded, took the sword, but immediately frowned. This is a rare treasured sword, simple and unsophisticated, with a light and thin blade, faintly stained with maroon blood, the blade is sharp and bright, under the pale moonlight, there is a bright brilliance flashing like mercury, the hilt is made of golden silk Surrounding it, there are two ancient seal characters cast on it: broken moon. Chu Qiao frowned, rubbed the hilt of the sword with her fingers, and said in a deep voice, "This is not my sword." Zuo Tang was startled, and quickly said: "This subordinate will go find them and exchange it." As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of hooves roaring on the opposite side, and the snow and mist churned and disappeared in an instant. "You can't catch up." The girl said slowly, and with a swish, she returned the sword into the sheath with her backhand, who knew that the sword and her scabbard fit perfectly. "Take that person's body back, Ah Jing returns to the camp to heal his wounds, and the others follow me to Huangzhang Square." With a sonorous voice, the woman turned the horse's head and led the crowd away. Coming to the square in front of the imperial tent, it was like entering another world, with the smell of barbecue and laughter everywhere, Chu Qiao untied her weapon, handed it to the guards, and led by a forbidden soldier, walked into the In the big tent. The imperial tent occupies an extremely large area, with thirty-six seats opened vertically, winding and spreading, and arranged on the left and right sides of the big tent.When Chu Qiao came in, most of the people had already arrived. Since the emperor hadn't arrived yet, there was a lot of people in the big tent, and they gathered everywhere, very lively. Chu Qiao is just a follower, so naturally she can't walk around at will. She glanced around and went straight to a quiet place with few people. Sure enough, she saw Yan Xun in a moon-white robe, with handsome eyebrows and a calm face, quietly Sitting there drinking tea and wine, Zhao Song stood aside, scratching his ears and cheeks, looking restless. "My son." Chu Qiao went straight over, and before she had time to speak, Zhao Song shouted in a fuss, "Ah! Ah Chu, what's wrong with you? Are you injured?" Although the neck was just scratched, but it was bleeding, Chu Qiao shook her head, and said indifferently: "It's okay, I accidentally rubbed it." "Why are you so careless?" Zhao Song frowned and said in concern, "I'll go to the doctor right away, and I have to deal with it properly." "No need," Chu Qiao held him back, "It's just a minor injury, so there's no need to bother everyone." "Then how?" Zhao Song frowned unhappily, but he knew that his words were always weak, so he turned his head to look at Yan Xun: "Senior Yan, what do you think?" Yan Xun frowned slightly, looked up at the girl's slightly pale cheeks, years of tacit understanding made him understand something, he didn't rush, just asked in a low voice: "Are you really all right?" Chu Qiao shook her head and said firmly, "It's fine." Looking at the appearance of the two, Zhao Song suddenly felt that he was being pushed out. He pursed his lips involuntarily and said, "Then I'll get some medicine for sores." After speaking, he turned and left. Chu Qiao sat in the back seat where Yan Xun was seated, leaned over, and said in a low voice, "It's Zalu's man who stole the secret box from your camp, and I've already killed him." Yan Xun frowned and said, "That thing is useless, it's just a deception, why are you working so hard for it?" "Zaru's people don't have this ability yet." Chu Qiao caressed the wound on her neck, and snorted softly, "There was an accident. Recently, in the capital, did any experts come?" "A master in the capital?" Yan Xun raised his eyebrows, his expression suddenly a little elusive: "That's quite a lot." "Brother Xun!" A coquettish voice suddenly sounded, and among the crowd, a girl in a sable dress, surrounded by a group of girls, ran forward laughingly, but as soon as she approached, the smile on her face disappeared, and she looked coldly Looking at the girl sitting behind Yan Xun, he said coldly, "Why is she here?" Chu Qiao stood up and saluted respectfully: "Princess Eight." Zhao Chun didn't even look at Chu Qiao, he went straight to Yan Xun and sat down, and said angrily, "Is it because you haven't come to see me these few days because she's back?" Yan Xun got up, stood beside Chu Qiao, and said calmly: "Yan Xun is afraid, and dare not disturb the princess to rest." "Okay, as soon as she came back, did you call me princess?" After finishing speaking, he pointed at Chu Qiao and said coldly, "Who allowed you, a lowly slave, to come in?" As soon as the words were finished, Yan Xun's face turned cold, and the man's handsome brows slowly frowned: "The princess is so magnificent, how can she speak obscenities, Ah Chu was brought in by me, does the princess want to drive me out together?" Zhao Chun pursed his lips, his eyes turned red immediately, he stomped his feet resentfully, but he didn't answer Yan Xun's words, he just pointed at Chu Qiao and shouted: "You wait for me!" After saying that, he turned and ran away.All the royal daughters who came with her gave Chu Qiao a venomous look, and they all chased after her. Chu Qiao sighed, and said in a deep voice: "Why are you offending her at this time? I'll just go out." The man's deep voice was like the clear spring water in the mountain stream, and he said slowly, "When I was young, I had to endure, and that was because I had no other choice but to endure. If I still need to swallow my anger on this kind of thing now , then my efforts over the years would be meaningless.” Yan Xun sat on the seat, took a sip of wine slowly, his face was calm, his eyebrows were handsome, his hair in white and black, like a person in a painting. At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew in at the door, and the air was so cold that everyone turned their heads to look at it. I saw the curtain of the big tent move, and a young man in purple robe and white fur walked in immediately. He was majestic and heroic, his eyebrows were like swords, his eyes were like cold stars, and his face was like a crown jade. There is a breathtaking cold light and a sharp blade.However, on the tall and straight neck, there was an extremely uncoordinated scratch of blood, and at this moment, traces of blood were leaking out. Chu Qiao's pupils constricted immediately, and the brows frowned tightly. "Fourth Young Master," Prince Jing Xiao and a group of princes and children immediately went forward, and said with a spring breeze: "After seven years of farewell, Fourth Young Master's demeanor is even better than before!" The corner of Zhuge Yue's mouth smiled faintly, he returned the salutes one by one, behaved well, stood in the crowd talking and laughing happily, he was no longer the paranoid and suspicious withdrawn boy he was back then.Seven years of time experience have made him like a sword out of the box, able to radiate his own brilliance at any time. The lights flickered, and the big tent was full of joy. Zhuge Yue, who had escaped from the entanglement of the crowd, glanced around the crowd, and finally, he froze in the last seat in the corner. Yan Xun drank quietly without raising his head, his posture was upright and his manner was unrestrained, but his broad back completely blocked the woman behind him, preventing the sharp and cold light in front from continuing to explore. "Young Master Yan, please stay safe." A deep voice sounded slowly above his head, Yan Xun raised his head, smiled, and stood tall: "Brother Zhuge, long time no see." Zhuge Yue's lips curled up, Xie Mei smiled coldly, turned his head slightly, looked behind Yan Xun, and said in a low and low voice: "Xing'er, don't you know me?" Time passed, the years were turbulent, the ups and downs of time cut through the nothingness of time and space, and seven years passed in a blink of an eye. People who once faced each other stood on the balance of fate again. Chu Qiao raised her head, her face was calm, her eyes were indifferent, she looked at her former master who was looking down on her, and lightly parted her lips: "The fourth master Zhuge is famous all over the world, who wouldn't know him?"
