Jinyu Dynasty 7 Quenching Mirror

Xuan Huaifeng returned to the room with a heavy heart.

He grew up in the commander's mansion since he was a child, and later went to study in England. After returning to China, he also stayed in the capital full of modern atmosphere. Everyone he heard talked about equality and openness, even if there were old people and children who occasionally spoke sour words, But laugh it off.

They don't know that there is such a nasty and backward habit in the world, which treats living young and beautiful women like grass, and turns them into intercourse.

And what is even more hateful is that everyone does not think it is evil, but considers it a good thing.

The more Xuan Huaifeng thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, not to mention reading, he couldn't even sit still, he walked back and forth in the room, stopped for a while, and stood in front of the window, sighing deeply.

According to Bai Xuelan's habit, the first thing to do when returning to the room is to have some intimate actions with Xuan Huaifeng.

But after burying the dead today, he was afraid of passing on bad luck to Xuan Huaifeng, so as soon as he entered the door, he asked someone to bring hot water towels, took a hot bath behind the screen, and changed from head to toe .

Bai Xuelan came out from behind the screen, rubbing her wet hair with a towel, saw Xuan Huaifeng sighing by the window, and said, "Still thinking about that? Don't think about it. Let me just say, you who care about the country, the people and the world Responsibility, how much breath you have to consume every day."

Xuan Huaifeng turned around and asked, "Aren't you angry?"

Bai Xuelan sneered, "Being angry is also being idle. Think about it, if this happened to me, what would happen to me? If it happened to you, what would happen to you? But look at my sister, besides crying, she Have the courage to resist? This world is not a bodhisattva dojo. She thinks that being a docile sheep can make others forgive her. In fact, in this world, when will tigers and leopards spare sheep? She is not tough. It's useless for others to be angry for her."

Xuan Huaifeng shook his head and said, "It's already wrong for you to compare her with us."

Bai Xuelan asked, "Why is it wrong?"

Xuan Huaifeng said, "She is a woman, and we are men. When it comes to fighting against an unfair fate, how can a woman's weakness compare to a man's strength?"

Bai Xuelan didn't think so, and retorted him, "You said that men and women are different, that's fine, I'll use women as a comparison. If you are forced to marry a dementia that is dying, for example, our female guest, Miss Dai, What will happen to her? For example, what will happen to the female general of the Han family, Ms. Han Weiyang? You know Ms. Ouyang from the president of the Capital Chamber of Commerce. Don’t dare to shout out loud.”

Xuan Huaifeng did not make a sound.

In his heart, he never thought that Leng Ningfang was too weak.

It's just that his misfortune has reached the extreme, and it would be unreasonable to criticize others behind others, and he couldn't bear it in his heart.

So he didn't argue with Bai Xuelan, he just walked to the table and sat there sullenly.

He couldn't help thinking of the words Adjutant Sun choked up when he went to the wooden house today.He didn't have a deep friendship with Leng Ningfang, yet he felt deep sympathy for her, and felt sorry for his inability to save her, not to mention that Adjutant Sun and her were old acquaintances.

At this moment, Xuan Huaifeng felt somewhat of Adjutant Sun's sense of powerlessness.

Bai Xuelan dragged the chair to Xuan Huaifeng's side, sat next to him, put her arms around him and asked, "Why don't you talk? Are you angry that I didn't make a heroic rescue scene for her?"

Xuan Huaifeng thought of the old man of the Bai family, and knew in his heart that Bai Xuelan seemed to be indifferent to his sister, but in fact it was because of the strict orders of the elders that it was difficult to move.

If she gets angry with Bai Xuelan for this, then Bai Xuelan has been wronged.

Xuan Huaifeng just sighed lightly, shook his head to Bai Xuelan and said, "I'm not angry with you."

Bai Xuelan asked, "Then what are you doing sourly? Come on and show me a smile."

Xuan Huaifeng said, "I know you want to make me laugh. But I'm sorry, I'm really in the mood to laugh now, and I can only show you a wry smile if I want to."

Bai Xuelan stopped teasing him, looked at him tenderly and said, "I've been busy since getting up early, and I'm very tired. Let's lie down on the bed and talk, shall we?"

Xuan Huaifeng looked at him suspiciously, and said, "I really want to be quiet now, don't make bad thoughts. Otherwise, I will really get angry."

Bai Xuelan smiled wryly, "Am I just not trusted like this? Make sure to be quiet and just talk nicely."

Xuan Huaifeng fought against everyone in the front hall, and put in a lot of effort. Thinking of winter, sleeping under a warm quilt with Bai Xuelan can not only relieve fatigue, but also relieve a heavy mood, so he obediently Brought to bed by Bai Xuelan.

The two took off their thick leather boots and the big coats they were wearing outside, and covered them with a big quilt outside.

Xuan Huaifeng was in Bai Xuelan's arms, with ten slightly cool fingers sticking to Bai Xuelan's inner garment, feeling the heat from his body seep through the material, and after a while, even his fingertips became hot.

Xuan Huaifeng felt comfortable, and couldn't help sighing, "Your body is better than a charcoal stove in winter."

Bai Xuelan was very proud, and responded with a Shandong accent, "Report sir, I am the No. touch?"

Xuan Huaifeng also wanted to dilute the sorrowful atmosphere, so he didn't hesitate, and really stretched out his hand to touch Bai Xuelan's body.

I thought to myself, this person must have five elements of fire, and his body is much hotter than ordinary people.

I also thought, I often hear people say that the muscles are strong after exercise, and they feel elastic to the touch. He really has a very strong body after exercise.

Once upon a time in England, I attended an amateur medical class and saw a picture of human muscles. I had forgotten most of them, and only remembered the pectoralis major and rectus abdominis.The muscles here are bulging, probably the so-called pectoral muscles.However, is the position of the rectus abdominis a little below here?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help touching two more.

Bai Xuelan suddenly made a sound, pressed her forehead hard against Xuan Huaifeng, her voice became slightly hoarse, and said, "Sir, if you continue to be so disrespectful, the stove will burn through the roof."

Xuan Huaifeng was startled, quickly retracted his hand, and warned, "Don't forget what you promised, just talk nicely."

Bai Xuelan said, "Talk well, what are you touching me for?"

Xuan Huaifeng asked back, "Didn't you tell me to touch it?"

Looking at Bai Xuelan's depressed face, she couldn't help but smile.

Bai Xuelan said aggrievedly, "Okay, you finally smiled. I understand now that you want to bully me, so you are willing to smile. Make an agreement with me first, you are only allowed to talk, not to eat meat, but you Deliberately teasing me, touching my flesh to play, is this treating me as the stupid roe deer that Zhang Dasheng beat?"

While talking, he pulled down the flesh on both sides of his cheeks, stared blankly, and made a stupid expression of a roe deer, which was actually vivid.

Xuan Huaifeng was so teased by him that his stomach ached from laughing, he grabbed Bai Xuelan's hand and put it tremblingly on his stomach.

Bai Xuelan knew what he meant and rubbed it gently for him.

After half a day, Xuan Huaifeng stopped laughing, and said to Bai Xuelan, "Such a surprise attack almost broke my guts from laughing. Don't make trouble anymore, just lie down properly and talk."

Lie down as before, resting her head on Bai Xuelan's shoulder.

Bai Xuelan did these things just to relieve Xuan Huaifeng's depression, and seeing that Xuan Huaifeng was in a better mood, she cooperated with him as a pillow and asked, "What can I say?"

Xuan Huaifeng asked, "You said that if the world is peaceful and we have a surplus of money, what should we do?"

Bai Xuelan felt a little strange, "You, a person who doesn't touch worldly things, suddenly thought of spending money?"

Xuan Huaifeng said, "I always feel that if there is no war, the first thing is to get a sum of money to run a school and do something about education."

Bai Xuelan became suspicious, and said coldly, "Is this the inspiration that Miss Dai gave you? Oh, I've only been out for a morning, and you are going to change from confidantes to colleagues?"

Xuan Huaifeng turned over in his arms, frowned and said, "I just spoke with a bit of interest, so don't interrupt."

Bai Xuelan sighed, "Oh, I have really become Mrs. Xuan, so I can only bow my head and obey my ears."

Xuan Huaifeng said, "I understand Mrs. Jiang's unreasonableness about your sister today. A woman can use any superstitious means for the continuation of future generations and for her son. But those villagers who help her , what's the good? They don't do any good, but they feel they're doing the right thing, which is pathetic."

Bai Xuelan said, "I understand what you mean. This is all a fault of ignorance."

Xuan Huaifeng said, "That's right. Ignorant believers are more terrifying than those evil people who intentionally do bad things. Because they always think they are doing good things, they don't have any hesitation or guilt when they harm people. Regarding this, you What do you think?"

Bai Xuelan said, "Of course I agree with your opinion."

Xuan Huaifeng raised his long eyelashes and said, "You are just perfunctory for me when you say something like that."

Bai Xuelan said, "I'll tell you one thing, and you'll know that I'm not trying to perfuse you."

Xuan Huaifeng said, "Then tell me."

Bai Xuelan pondered for a while, and then began to say, "This is a past event, I don't often mention it to others. Back then, I was still in my hometown in Shandong. One day, a Western missionary came to see me, saying that he was a Western doctor. Many poor people are still suffering from the scourge of smallpox, and they are willing to take out a batch of vaccines brought from foreign countries to vaccinate their children. In his words, it is he who represents his great God and conveys a little love to the suffering world .”

Xuan Huaifeng said, "This is a good thing."

Bai Xuelan said, "I thought so too. Anyway, I don't need to pay for the vaccine. The missionaries are ready-made doctors. In fact, it is a business that takes advantage of foreigners. So I sent two soldiers and took the priest to a Go to the village where there was smallpox the year before, and vaccinate the children there. In this way, those children will no longer be afraid of getting smallpox and losing their lives.”

Xuan Huaifeng looked at Bai Xuelan's face, it was a little heavier than before, thinking that this good thing may turn out to be a bad result in the end.

Because of such thoughts, he couldn't help but guess at the bad side, and asked Bai Xuelan, "It's the priest, who is actually unkind and has other intentions?"

Bai Xuelan shook her head and said, "You guessed wrong. That priest is a real person who does things. When he went to that small village, he not only brought vaccines, but also brought a lot of bright candies to please the children. One When he got there, he announced that he would give a candy to any child who was willing to let him have a needle in his arm. Those poor children couldn't bear it, and happily went up to stretch their arms, get needles, and eat candies."

Xuan Huaifeng asked, "Have all the children been vaccinated? If there are too many people, I'm afraid he didn't bring enough vaccines. Otherwise, is the candy pie over?"

Bai Xuelan looked at him deeply, smiled at him, and whispered softly, "Huaifeng, you are a naive fool."

Xuan Huaifeng said, "I am a naive fool, but you who like fools, what do you say?"

Bai Xuelan said, "Sir, you don't know, we Shandong stoves like Guangdong fools."

She lowered her head and kissed him tenderly on the forehead.

Xuan Huaifeng looked at him, his eyes were soft, and the ripples in his eyes were naturally sweet. After a while, he gave Bai Xuelan a push, "The story is only half told."

Bai Xuelan continued, "Those children lined up to beg for candies. They were fine, but the priest just gave injections to a dozen children, and the adults in the village heard the news and rushed over. The priest repeatedly explained that vaccination is a In order to prevent people from smallpox, no one would believe it. In their eyes, the blond-haired and blue-eyed Western monk who lured ignorant children with candies and pricked children with needles must be a witch. Those people were very angry and wanted to tie up the priest. Get up and light the sky lanterns. The two soldiers I sent to escort him had been on the battlefield and were very vigilant. Seeing that something was wrong, they fired a few shots into the sky on the spot, frightened those people, and quickly fled with the priest. That's it Well, the priest did some good deeds for nothing, only to return in a state of embarrassment, and he almost saved his life."

Xuan Huaifeng had only been surrounded by people today, and he knew the feeling of being swarmed by people without reason, so he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Thanks to you sending two soldiers to him, you saved a good man's life. Although I haven’t done my best. After all, there are a dozen or so children who don’t have to suffer from smallpox in the future. They can only bear the consequences of their own ignorance."

Bai Xuelan sneered and said, "Do you think cutting off other people's kind help is called hateful ignorance? Big mistake, that's just pathetic and pitiful ignorance. The hateful thing comes later. Later, I got news that the village was afraid of children being killed. Yaofa, I collected money and invited a sorceress to come. You probably know that rashes will appear on the arms with acne in a few days. The sorcerer saw the rash and said that the arms of these children have been poisoned by Western monks. , If you keep it, your life will not be guaranteed. So those adults found a dozen children who had been vaccinated, and chopped off their little arms."

Xuan Huaifeng groaned, sat up suddenly, pressed his chest with one hand, and said in a low voice after a long while, "I can't bear to hear such a tragedy."

Bai Xuelan saw that his handsome face was pale, and his brows were furrowed, revealing a very distressed expression.

Secretly regret.

Knowing that a lover is very kind, why bother to tell the past to make him uneasy.

Then he hugged Xuan Huaifeng slowly, and said softly, "I'm making you feel bad. Let's stop talking, lie down again, and it's time to eat."

Xuan Huaifeng said, "No, you go on. Because I know you and know about such a tragedy, so I have to do something."

Bai Xuelan asked, "Do you really want to listen?"

Xuan Huaifeng said, "I really want to listen."

Bai Xuelan sighed, "Okay, then I'll tell you. I know those children's arms were chopped off, so of course they were very angry. They mobilized a team of cavalry overnight and surrounded the village there."

"I found those children who had their little arms cut off and were still moaning in pain."

"I interrogated those adults with innocent faces, and found out the witch, and those who cut off the child's arm."

"I asked the witch, why do you do evil."

"The sorceress replied that she did see traces of demonic spells on the children. What's more, the children had rashes on their arms. If it spread, not only the children's lives would be lost, but people in the whole village might be infected. Therefore, in order to save everyone's lives, she had to say those words."

"I ask those grown-ups who cut off children's arms, why do you do evil."

"Those adults replied with tears in their eyes, who would be willing to cut off this little arm of their own flesh and blood? It was really to save the life of the child, and they had no choice but to be cruel."

Listening to Bai Xuelan's words, Xuan Huaifeng thought of the children's white and tender little arms that had been cut off, and his sister who was far away in the capital, cut it off with scissors, and threw it at his severed finger angrily.

What's wrong with parents loving their children?

What's wrong with my elder sister hoping that my younger brother will live up to him?

What's wrong with Western monks?

What's wrong with vaccination?

What's wrong with a man liking another man?

It seems that no one made a big mistake, but the blood that bleeds is always bright red.

A severed finger cannot grow back.

What about the severed arm?How can there be another day of lively and waving?

In Xuan Huaifeng's heart, he was bewildered by love, hate, right and wrong in the world, as if caught in a big knot that couldn't be untied.

He felt that he had also become the weak Leng Ningfang for a while, and he felt in a trance.

Fortunately, Bai Xuelan was always by his side, he relaxed his body and leaned on Bai Xuelan's hard shoulder.

Immediately, I felt like I was on the ground again.

Xuan Huaifeng said softly, "Go ahead."

At this moment, the expression on Bai Xuelan's face was indescribable love, like telling a story to a child, she said slowly, "I told that witch, you are a witch, and I am actually half a magician. I took a quick look and saw that the demons from those children had passed to you. The rash on the children's arms is contagious, and you will naturally be contagious. In order to save everyone's life, I have to kill you."

"So, I asked two soldiers to tie her up and light a sky lantern."

"Then, I asked the tearful parents who cut off their children's arms to line up. I asked someone to fetch the vaccine left by the priest, and each of them got a needle in their arm."

"I said, this is what the Western monk pierced your children's hands. He said it was a good thing to prevent people from smallpox. You said it was a magic trick that would kill you if you didn't cut off your arm."

"Then, now that you yourself have also been enchanted by demons, in order to save your life, you have no choice but to be cruel and cut off your arms."

"I also found out the hatchet they used to cut off the child's arm, and put it in front of their eyes."

"Those adults, when they cut off their own children's arms, wept and resolutely chopped off. Now it's their turn, and they are also crying, but they refuse to pick up the hatchet anyway."

"They were crying and begging me to spare them."

"Those children who lost their arms also shed tears, begging me to spare their parents."

"I advise those adults, your children have no arms. If you don't cut off your own arms and let the demons take your lives, who will raise your poor children in the future? You are not going to bear it out of love for your children. Cut off his arm? Now, in order to love my child, I should also cut off my own arm."

"I persuaded them for half an hour, but none of the grown-ups was willing to pick up the hatchet. They knelt down, and their emaciated children knelt beside them, crying miserably."

"I know those people who think that I should spare them when they kneel like this and bring their children to cry and beg. Because they are poor, poor, and ignorant, and they deserve mercy. If I don't have mercy on these foolish people , is the heinous Demon King."

"But they don't know me. I'm a demon king."

"Besides, I hate this one the most. It permeates my native land, my motherland, and it is permeated with vicious, pedantic ignorance!"

"If you think that you are a parent who loves your children, you have a good reason to kill your children; if you think that you have good intentions, you can treat others like pigs and dogs. Since this makes sense, why do things fall on you? Don’t dare to chop it off with a single knife? After all, it’s just that human nature is too ugly.”

"If those people are willing to take up the knife and use the righteousness of killing his own children on themselves, then I will probably show mercy."

"Since he is not merciful to his own children, but is very merciful to himself, I, the devil king, naturally cannot be merciful."

"So I lighted all those people on sky lanterns."

"When they were burning in the fire, their children whose arms had been cut off first cried and screamed, and then stared at me with extremely resentful eyes."

"Hate me, so what? I, Bai Xuelan, am not afraid of being resented."

Speaking of this, Bai Xuelan paused for a while, stroked Xuan Huaifeng's cheek with her fingertips, smiled, and said, "Later I found out that the sorceress had something to do with it, because by killing her, I offended an enemy. In fact, this is not the only enemy I have provoked. According to the words of the old man in my family, it is okay for our Bai family to kill people. However, killing parents because of children, rebelling against patriarchal and human relations and causing public anger No. So, I was exiled to study in Guangdong. Then, I met you."

He gently stroked Xuan Huaifeng's cheek with his fingertips.

Then, she gently slid her fingertips on the bridge of Xuan Huaifeng's straight nose.

He sighed with relief, "You see, there is a will in the world. I sent a priest to a small village, I killed a witch, and I killed many children's parents. Probably, it was just to meet you superior."

Listening to his words, Xuan Huaifeng felt his heart shaking, his chest was churning, but he didn't know what to say.

Dazed for a long time, he reached out and grabbed Bai Xuelan's fingertips that were rubbing on his face, and said, "Ah, you are like a stove, and your fingertips are sometimes so cold."

Then she took Bai Xuelan's fingertips together with her palm and rubbed them gently.

Bai Xuelan said, "Huaifeng, if you want to change the world, what you think of is to set up an arsenal, a pharmaceutical factory, and a school. I'm different from you. My idea is to kill people. I hate those who use heroin to poison the people of the country. Foreigners, I tied them up and used them to light sky lanterns. I hate those elders and parents who harmed their children at will. I tied them up and used them to light sky lanterns. I hate those who looted villages Bandits, even if they kneel and surrender to me, I will shoot them one by one and kill them. Are you afraid of me acting like this?"

Xuan Huaifeng thought for a moment, a smile appeared on his face, and asked him, "You wrote such a long foreshadowing, because you are afraid that when I come to your hometown, I will hear many things you have done in the past, and I will give birth to you. Not satisfied?"

Bai Xuelan said, "Now you also know that I am a murderer. If you dare to be dissatisfied with me, I might kill you too."

Xuan Huaifeng laughed and said, "This is too coquettish."

There was a palpitating seriousness on Bai Xuelan's face, but because Xuan Huaifeng said this with a smile, he also smiled relaxedly.

The smell of blood from the past, which had accumulated in the house, seemed to be illuminated by the bright sun breaking through the clouds, and it disappeared.

Bai Xuelan smiled and said, "Didn't you reward me with the title of Mrs. Xuan? With this title, I can act like a baby."

Xuan Huaifeng said, "One joke, less than a day, has been borrowed by you several times. It's enough."

Bai Xuelan said, "Not enough, just like that Angel, I will use it for the rest of my life."

Just as he was talking, someone knocked on the door outside.

Bai Xuelan said, "At this hour, I think it's time to deliver dinner."

The two got out of bed and put on their big coats.Xuan Huaifeng bent over to put on his boots, Bai Xuelan went first and opened the door.

It wasn't the person who delivered the food from the kitchen, it was Song Ren who came.

Seeing Bai Xuelan, Song Ren reported in a deep voice, "Chief, there is a commotion over there, saying that the young mistress is overwhelmed and wants to hang herself on the beam to die."

Xuan Huaifeng's expression changed, and he took two steps forward and asked, "How is she now?"

Song Ren said, "I heard that an old woman was guarding her. She was discovered early and rescued in time. Now she has just recovered."

Xuan Huaifeng breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Bai Xuelan and said, "You said that she is not tough, and she dared not even yell out if she didn't want to. Now, her act of preferring death to surrender can be regarded as a yell!" unwilling."

Bai Xuelan said, "If she doesn't marry the second child of the Jiang family, is it possible to marry you? Even if she is tough, the other must be tough. This is the result of both."

As soon as the words fell, the sound of thumping footsteps was heard, indicating that the person was running.

It turned out that Zhang Dasheng ran up from downstairs and said loudly, "Adjutant Sun heard the news that the Jiang family's young lady was looking for death. He went crazy, knocked down the guards, and ran out."

After hearing this, Xuan Huaifeng was not angry but happy, and smiled at Bai Xuelan, "Look, the other one has also become tougher."

Bai Xuelan sneered and said, "You're still happy. Sun Zian pretended to be smart, and he became a fool when he met my cousin. At this time, he ran away. Can his small arms and legs be beaten or carried? You will end up being beaten to death."

Xuan Huaifeng hurriedly said, "You have already missed the scene where the hero saves the beauty. The scene where the chief saves the adjutant must not fail. Go quickly."

Bai Xuelan asked back, "Are you ordering me?"

Xuan Huaifeng said very toughly, "Allow you to use me? Let me use it once in a while, so what? Don't forget your new title."

These words were very blunt, but they hit Bai Xuelan's heart.

Bai Xuelan smiled brightly, and as expected, she obeyed.
