Ancient Sword II Xie Lelianxin

Qin Yang sent Le Wuyi back to the camp, the military doctor looked at the injuries, but said that the person who shot was very skillful, the knife saw blood but did not hurt the bones.The most serious injury was the palm that was slapped on the chest, which happened to be blocked by an iron flute hanging on the chest; as for the coughing up of blood and fainting, it was due to depression and depression in the heart, and it would be good to rest for ten days up.

As he said, Le Wuyi woke up two days later, slowly ate a bowl of clear water and white noodles, and some blood returned to his face.

"Desert water is as expensive as oil. This is the noodle soup you specially made for me." Le Wuyi thanked Wen Renyu, picked up the bowl and drank the soup, not intending to tell her that there was too much salt.

Outside the camp, everyone hurriedly carried their luggage—according to the way of exploring the road back to the camp this morning, the guide found the sign leading to the ancient road to Mount Yilie, and Qin Yang had already ordered the camp to leave in two days.

"I picked up all the things you left behind and put them in that bag." Wen Renyu closed the curtain, turned around and saw Le Wuyi stretched himself up to get it, and hurriedly pressed him back on the couch, "Don't worry , I turned over the sand inch by inch, so nothing will leak. You have a good rest, two days later... do you plan to go to Liuyue City together?"

Le Wuyi closed his eyes, nodded, licked the tiny blood scab on his lips and said, "I want to ask to understand."

More than a thousand soldiers and horses marched quickly with the military flag, and the exposed hands and faces of the soldiers were scratched by the wind and sand with shallow bloodstains, which would sting when they were soaked in sweat.

The sun was so hot that many people were too hot to eat. Le Wuyi seasoned the smelly dried meat with cumin, nepeta and flax. Made some wine.The monotonous rations began to become interesting, but soon the food rations were inexplicably short, or half a leg of lamb, or a few sheets of bread. Although not much was stolen, it was very annoying.

Wen Renyu was furious that someone dared to steal the army rations and would be punished with a military stick, and let me catch this little thief.

Le Wuyi agrees, the noose you made can catch sand chickens, and it should also be able to catch thieves, why don't you try it.

The two people who were gearing up for fighting set up a battle, but within a few days, the noose really bound the ankle of "Night Thief".The man's reaction was also extremely fast, as soon as he was trapped, he pulled out the dagger in his boot and cut the noose, but it was still not as fast as the spear point around his neck on the cooling rack.

"It turned out that you were the one who stole the rations." Wen Ren's brows were raised upright, and he stared at the man of the foreign race on the ground, "The tip of the gun has been cut through the blade. If you don't want to have your neck cut, don't move around."

The man shook his head and pigtails, and shouted in blunt Central Plains dialect: "It's not me!"

"Then what are you doing here in the middle of the night?" Le Wuyi poked his head out from behind Wen Renyu, and felt that the man looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.He imitated Wen Renyu's tone and taught, "Just say if you're not full, and I'll make more next time... It's not good to steal too much."

"Well, your barbecue is very good. I'm not a thief, I'm here to help you." The man stretched his eyebrows when he saw Le Wuyi, "What's your name, how about doing business with me after this trip. I never treat my subordinates badly, as long as you follow me, you can still..."

"Hey, wait!" Wen Renyu interrupted him impatiently, put away his gun and explained to Le Wuyi, "He is the guide my senior brother found, called..."

"Woman, your marksmanship is also good, you can call me the wolf king."

"My name is Wen Renyu, not a woman." The girl said coldly.

The man approached slowly, his burly body almost enveloping them.He scratched his neck, saw blood stains on his fingertips, couldn't help but glared at Wen Renyu, raised his chin and said proudly: "The knot is too loose, I'll teach you."

"You're talking nonsense, we've used it to catch people before, if it wasn't for..." Wen Renyu stopped talking when he remembered that Le Wuyi was still clinging to the broken rope when he was in a coma, and when he woke up, he didn't mention Xie Yi again.The wolf king snorted, took out the slipknot from under the sand, put it on his wrist, and signaled the two to watch.

"It turns out that this kind of knot... really can't bind people." Wen Renyu was a little disappointed, and leaned closer to watch the wolf king's movements.The gold ring on the man's earlobe flashed her eyes, and she realized that the skin under his ear was indeed broken, and there was a thin bloodshot on the side of his neck.She thought of the two overlapping scars on Le Wuyi's neck—but they were both on the back of his neck.

The person who left Wuyi with his own hands... Wen Renyu sighed and didn't say anything else.

The noose taught by the Wolf King really caught the thief.After the turmoil passed, he still often chatted with Le Wuyi, and after being rejected many times, he still wanted to recruit him.Wen Renyu was afraid that Le Wuyi would add to his worries for no reason, so he simply went in and out with him, and when he saw the wolf king approaching, he used excuses to stop him and helped Le Wuyi escape.The three of them played hide-and-seek a few times like eagles catching chickens, and no one could do anything about it. The doubts that flashed through Wen Renyu's mind that day quickly disappeared in the exhaustion of the march.

In August, the Yilie Valley is full of flowers, which is the most beautiful season of the year in Liuyue City.

Huayue walked into the dark Ziwei Hall, and replaced the poppies a few days ago with the freshly picked daylilies, adding a few bright colors to the gloomy stone walls.Seeing that there were still a few flower buds left in the poppies, she picked a few and planned to take them back and put them in her house.

Someone approached from behind, Huayue turned around, and respectfully knelt down to the person: "See Ziwei Zun."

"Get up and talk."

Shen Ye's expression became much calmer, Hua Yue thought to himself that he might be able to grant what she asked for today, she was a little relieved, and didn't notice the black-clothed dark guards following behind him.Still kneeling, she begged respectfully: "Your Majesty, it has been several months since Li Zhu returned to the city, can you release her from the dungeon and hand her over to your subordinates?"

While the two were talking, the black-clothed dark guard quietly disappeared.

"You also want to learn from her woman's benevolence?" Shen Ye's face turned cold, "Deceitful, disregarding duty... Tell me, how should I deal with it?"

"Although she dereliction of duty, she is not guilty of death. According to Lie Shan's law, both surrender and first-time offenders can have their sentences reduced..." Hua Yue said anxiously, but she saw that Shen Ye had already walked by her impatiently, and the poppy bud was in her hand. In a blink of an eye, it was crushed to pieces.

"As long as you betray once, there will be a second time. Why abandon it?" Shen Ye scolded, seeing Huayue knelt down for a long while with a sad expression, and then pulled her up with a calm expression, "Nian Qi returned to the city on his own, and died with a stick." Changed to dove killing. You don't have to be too sad, since you are the person under your seat, I will leave it to you to deal with the aftermath after the punishment."

After thanking Hua Yue, she exited the inner hall, and suddenly heard Shen Ye calling Chu Qi, she couldn't help turning her head, and saw a hidden guard kneeling on one knee in front of Shen Ye.The man had a mask covering his brows and eyes, but his figure was somewhat familiar. She was about to take a closer look, but the man disappeared again.

The cells for detaining serious offenders are built at the bottom of Ziwei Hall. The thick stone walls are invulnerable, the passages are cramped and winding like a labyrinth, and there are sentries at each door, making it difficult for even rats to escape.

A few months ago, Li Zhu, who had been missing for a while, suddenly returned to the city by herself. Hua Yue had previously heard that she was distributing drugs without permission. The old story of releasing prisoners who donated poison to death without permission, and punishing them for several crimes, is actually an inevitable death penalty.

In the last scene before the execution, Huayue couldn't hide her sadness, but Lizhu was very calm. She picked up some ordinary things and asked about the condition of Cangming City Lord.Hua Yue said, Tong has already transferred Cangming's heart-linking Gu to someone else, so it's all right now.

"It is rumored that only those who have been washed by Jumu can be inoculated with Heart-Linking Gu. If someone can replace it, why did Lord Cangming take such a big risk back then..."

"I heard that Your Majesty just found a successor host recently, so I just moved it over. I had an audience with Master Cangming a few days ago, and the blood mark of the Gu King on her face has disappeared, and her complexion has improved a lot...Leave me more time." A few songs."

Li Zhu nodded, although Dao Wuyan Jialan was terrifying, fortunately Huayue was at the side of the city lord, and the sound of the harp could also soothe the Gu king's restlessness... From now on, the city lord will live in seclusion and the two will see each other less often, so he must be a bit reluctant.

Huayue sighed, and handed a volume of yellowed landscape paintings to Li Zhu, who she said was found when she tidied up her house the day before yesterday.

"I remember that you love this painting very much. When you saw it on the table when you were in charge of the house, you brought it here. There are strict rules here, and you can only bring this kind of thing in."

"Thank you, Lord Lianzhen. It's strange, I put it in the box well..." Li Zhu unfolded the scroll, with a faint smile on his face, "This was drawn by Lord Pojun after he returned from the Central Plains more than ten years ago. I liked it when I saw it. He told me at that time that he had seen a peach blossom forest in the Central Plains just like the one in the painting, and there were many flowers and trees that were not in the city. He told me to go out of the city to see it... Zhan Xiaoyu waited for a few years before he realized what he said was right." Pointing to the black paint sticks at both ends of the scroll, he laughed, "After I got the picture and looked at it again, I realized that these two axes are actually made of pen sticks. I made it... well, even if it was framed casually, it is thanks to that adult who can figure it out."

Li Zhu's smile was still on his face, suddenly a jailer approached the cell and whispered to Hua Yue: "It's almost time, Lord Lian Zhen, please go back."

"Wait a little longer..." Huayue sighed, held Lizhu's shoulder with sobs, and straightened her messy temple hair, "I'm sorry, I didn't protect you, so, so you have seen He died. After tomorrow, I will bury it with you..."

The daylilies that are still wet from the dew sway gently, blooming with fresh life wantonly, and still don’t know the ending of withering and falling apart in a few days.

The two people in the hall knelt and stood, and the man in black looked at the half-kneeling guard in front of him, and said calmly: "In three days, you will execute the execution yourself, there must be no mistakes."

"Yes."

The man slightly dragged his voice: "You were friends with Li Zhu when you were young. If you can't bear it, I can also...arrange others."

"This subordinate doesn't remember Priest Li Zhu, but only knows that he is the sharp blade of the high priest." The masked guard put his hands on his chest, stood up and saluted deeply, and replied without hesitation, " Don't worry, my lord, this subordinate will not disgrace his life."
