king array

Qingping Mountain is hundreds of miles away from the capital, if the fire can be seen from here, how amazing is the fire? !

The bandits immediately mobilized and gathered on the top of the hill to look towards the capital. Zhonglishan and Ling Xun walked in the front. They saw a raging sea of ​​flames burning in the southeast, and most of the sky was burned into iron.

Zhong Lishan frowned: "What's going on? Liangzhou soldiers set fire to the capital?"

Ling Xun looked at the sea of ​​flames, and there were flames jumping in his eyes, "The Liangzhou soldiers can only set fire from outside the city. The fire is so big, it looks like it was burning from the inside out."

"Oh? You mean that there are traitors in the capital? But what kind of traitors are so hard to think about, the fire is like this, and there are two armies confronting each other outside the city, so they can't escape themselves, right?"

Ling Xun didn't answer, but suddenly thought of the formation master's chaos that he saw at midnight that night, and then his face changed slightly, thinking of a person, worried whether he would suffer in this sea of ​​flames.

Unexpectedly, it was such a sudden thought that made him toss and turn all night without falling asleep.

Before dawn the next day, Ling Xun got up from the bed with a grunt, summoned Fang Jue, and asked him to sneak into Beijing with a few people to inquire about the situation in Mu's house.

"If you find Mr. Mu, you have to escort him out of Beijing no matter what." After thinking about it, Ling Xun added, "Of course, the premise is to do what you can, and don't fail to save others, but fold yourself in." , that would be embarrassing."

Fang Jue had long been used to their Master Feng not being able to speak human words, so he picked up four or five people in silence, and left Qingping Mountain without anyone noticing before dawn, and rushed towards the capital.

The fire in the capital burned for three full days, but it was still not extinguished. There were a lot of refugees who escaped from the Gyeonggi area near Qingping Mountain.What attitude should be adopted towards these refugees, there is a big difference between the chief and second chiefs of Qingpingshan.

Zhong Lishan wanted to do the same as he did to those refugees in the past, clothe the stuttering and help them tide over the difficulties, but Wu Qing was determined to drive them away.The two were arguing with red faces, and the quarrel made the village restless.

"Brother, those are not ordinary refugees, they are the head of the imperial city that has lived in the capital for generations. If they are so reckless to cover them all, they will not be afraid of some dog official's family members here? If they are allowed to come in to find out the strength of the village, Let's just wait for the catastrophe!"

Zhong Lishan explained: "I didn't say to let them enter the stockade, but let them set up a foothold near the farm. It's getting cold now, at least don't starve to death or freeze to death."

Wu Qing sneered, "Did you forget that you were troubled by the court because of something? It's said that the tree attracts the wind. Now at this juncture, not only do you not know how to restrain yourself, but you also deliberately attract attention and seek death? It's really bad luck. Who will take care of the people you rescued today? Sometimes people can’t just rely on loyalty, they have to have brains, even if you are not afraid of death, you have to think about these people in the cottage. Are you not afraid that your sister-in-law will be troubled by you? "

This was too much, Zhong Lishan blushed and turned white with anger, he turned the table and cursed: "Fuck you! Who is the head of the village now? I have already decided on this matter, who said It's useless, no matter how daring I am to chop him off with a knife!"

Zhong Lishan shouted loudly, and rushed out the door after speaking, just happened to bump into Ling Xun.

Wu Qing also seemed to feel that he had slipped his words just now, and hurriedly chased him out with a pale face, but when he saw Ling Xun who was following Zhong Lishan, his eyes suddenly darkened, he snorted coldly and flung his sleeves away.

Zhong Lishan was disturbed by this fire, he walked straight to a small pool on the top of the mountain with the wind blowing under his feet.The mountain streams converge into streams, and the source of everything is this small pool that is less than a square radius.Zhong Lishan sat by the pool and washed his face, lowered his head silently, not knowing what he was thinking.

Ling Xun actually didn't want to get involved in the affairs of Qingping Mountain, but Zhongli Mountain had already given him a look to follow, so he couldn't pretend that he didn't see it.

"Brother Feng, do you think I'm really a reckless man with a woman's heart?" Zhong Lishan asked suddenly.

Ling Xun raised his eyes and looked around, seeing that there was no one else around except the two of them, then he walked slowly to Zhongli Mountain, and said in a serious way: "Brother Zhongli is a man with big ambitions."

Zhong Lishan's body froze, and he laughed at himself: "A person like me, I don't dare to have any ambitions. I just feel that I am in a troubled world, and human lives are worthless. If I can save one, it is a good one."

The corners of Ling Xun's lips twitched slightly, "Brother saved not only human lives, but also people's hearts."

Zhong Lishan slowly turned his head to look at Ling Xun, stared at him seriously for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "It's not in vain that you and I hit it off and became friends."

After finishing speaking, he stood up and walked to the edge of the cliff overlooking Qingping Mountain hidden in the sea of ​​clouds, looking at the still burning capital, his eyes were shining brightly.

"I have been reduced to a bandit in this life, and I feel sorry for Xiaozhen, who let her hide with me in this mountain depression for the rest of her life. Now that someone has set fire to the imperial capital and the royal court, causing chaos in the world, if I can live here She is worthy of her for being precarious in the world and conquering one side of the world."

Ling Xun's thoughts moved slightly when he heard this, he only knew that Zhonglishan was different from ordinary bandits, he had ambitions in his chest, but he never thought that the reason for his ambitions was that there was such a tenderness hidden in his sons and daughters.However, this thought was only a slight turn in his mind, and then replaced by suspicion, he looked at Zhong Lishan sideways, not sure if he meant to tell him what he said.

"No matter what happens in the future, it's always right to save people. If you get a good reputation, maybe you, the leader of the bandits, won't have to be beaten and killed when you go out in the future."

In the end, Ling Xun only said this half-jokingly, without any promise or response.

When Ling Xun and Zhong Lishan were talking at the top of the main peak of Qingping Mountain, Fang Jue and others had already arrived outside the capital.

The fire in the city has subsided, presumably it has burnt out everything that can be burned, and it is gradually extinguishing itself.Half a month ago, the imperial city was heavily guarded. At this time, the gates of the city were wide open, and the Liangzhou soldiers who surrounded here disappeared.

Fang Jue arbitrarily caught a fleeing imperial guard, and found out the news that the powerful eunuch Qin Chao had kidnapped the young emperor and escaped from the capital, while Chen Bing led Liangzhou soldiers to chase along the way, and he was bound to kill the treacherous eunuch and rescue the young emperor.So now the imperial city, which has been burnt down with all its flowers and flowers, has become an abandoned cave that no one wants.

Several people covered their mouths and noses with wet handkerchiefs and entered the city.

There is thick smoke everywhere, and there is fire everywhere.

Fang Jue found it very difficult to find Mu's house in the unrecognizable ruins, so he had to follow the direction he remembered, but he lost hope. dead soul.

At this time, the Mu residence that Fang Jue was looking for was already engulfed in flames. Not to mention people, even snakes, rats, insects and ants, there is absolutely no possibility of escaping from the flames.

However, amidst the crackling fire, there stood two figures, one tall and one short, looking very abrupt in the courtyard full of embers.

"Sir, are we finally able to leave the capital?" The shorter man asked, with two small buns on his head and a face like a white jade carving. .

There is only one person in the world who is called Mr. by Tong'er in such a respectful manner, and that is the Patriarch of the Mu family.

The two stood in the middle of the fire, but they didn't show any distress at all, especially the Patriarch of the Mu family, who was still wearing a long robe with wide sleeves, and had an elegant figure. It seemed that there was an invisible barrier around him, separating all the flames and smoke. Ten steps away, even the invisible heat waves billowing in the air were hard to invade.

The Patriarch of the Mu family hummed lightly, and asked, "Have you packed everything?"

Tong'er nodded: "I have brought all the important things."

"Let's go."

However, just as the two were about to leave Mu's house, Tong'er's expression moved slightly, and he suddenly let out a "huh".

"someone is coming!"

Who could come to Mu's house at this time?

The Patriarch of the Mu family was playing with stones in his hands, and he randomly popped a few stones around.

The stone fell to the ground, and the formation suddenly changed.When Fang Jue and his party braved the fire and rushed into Mu's house, they obviously passed by the two of them, but no one noticed them.

Fang Jue saw that the fire was too strong and the house might collapse at any time, and remembered what Ling Xun told him before leaving, so he decided to retreat, but before leaving, he glanced at the gate of Mu's house and picked up the half-burnt writing paper from the ground. The wooden sign with the words "Mu's House" was carried away in his bosom.

"Eh? Isn't that person just now the guard next to Mr. Feng?" Tong'er asked in doubt when the group walked away, but he was quick-witted and quickly guessed something, and widened his eyes in surprise: "Could it be that they came here?" To save Mr. Feng? This Mr. Feng is a person who really wants to be saved..."

The Patriarch of the Mu family lowered his eyes, his expression was still clear and indifferent, showing no signs of happiness or anger.The little Tong'er, who had been watching the master's expression all the time, noticed with sharp eyes that for a moment, the corner of his master's lips hooked slightly.

On the evening of the third day, the fire that had exhausted the last days of the Great Xia Dynasty in Beijing finally ceased.

The people in the city fled to death and fled, and displaced people can be seen everywhere around Gyeonggi, some of them were seriously injured in the fire, and even if they escaped, they were dying.

As night fell, when the last flame was extinguished in the dust, people all looked at the crumbling emperor's capital, and all they could do was cry to the scorched earth.Only the formation master, who was hiding in a dirty corner like an ant, showed hope and joy in his eyes of despair.

Because they know that they have finally waited for their time.

The old lady of Qin Tianjian, who had a white beard burned to black charcoal, leaned against a big tree and looked up at the sky, and suddenly burst into tears as she watched.

When the red star enters the heart, it becomes the image of love, confusion and guarding the heart. The world is in chaos, and all people are in ruins.

The Great Xia Dynasty, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, has really come to an end.
