Demon folding

Chapter 8: Good Recovery

Life is like a dream, since the doctor left in Tangchi Hall, only the four soldiers from the outer hall and the aunt in charge are left. I have no one to save, and it is rare to be clean.

Ever since I found some ways to dispel my floating thoughts, I couldn't bear it day and night, but he didn't come back for two days in a row, I got tired of lying down, and simply left the Tangchi Palace, wanting to seek his bad luck directly.

What Xie Fusheng said was right, he came to supervise the construction of Qingling Terrace, firstly he rectified the discipline of the slaves, not only the efficiency was improved, not to mention, with the help of those strange birds, the progress of the project was indeed much faster.

I went all the way from the Tangchi Hall behind the Li Palace to the Xuanniao Hall. The east and west halls on the left and right sides of Qingling Terrace had already taken shape.The left hall is made of jade, and the right hall is made of green. From a distance, it seems to be more gorgeous and delicate than the Xuanniao Hall.

Unable to figure out what he was going to do, I curled the corners of my mouth in boredom and raised my eyes.

Under Liege, those strange birds were flapping their huge wings, and their sharp claws like iron hooks were grabbing the boulder. Under Jie Fusheng's instructions, they flew slowly and placed the boulder at the designated position.

Even though the strange bird was so orderly and obedient, the slaves who were doing meticulous work were still cautious and did not dare to get close to the strange bird, especially when the giant bird melted certain shapes on the boulder with its saliva, it even retreated. Far away, not daring to approach at all.

Seeing those slaves so terrified and having to walk with the strange birds, I couldn't help but feel sorry for them, I snorted secretly, and hated Jie Fusheng even more.

Looking down, among the group of thin and sweaty slaves with bare arms, Jie Fusheng's elegant white clothes were particularly dazzling and glaring.

He mingled among the slaves, scurrying around to help, directing the slaves how to arrange and display them with a loud voice from time to time, as if he had stayed on the construction site for a long time, his white clothes had long since lost their cleanliness, and were exceptionally mud-stained. It was messy, and the forearm that was holding the cuffs was also shiny and sweaty, which made my heart suddenly feel hot.

Shaking the feather fan in my hand, I leaned against the cool railing in the shade under the eaves of the main hall, coolly watching Jie Fusheng busy to and fro.

I know he must have a plan, but I just can't figure it out.

Looking at it carefully with quiet eyes, it really is a bit extra careful, and even every inch of hair can't be wronged, and he doesn't hesitate to do it himself, personally messing up the white clothes, and he doesn't care about the messy bun.

The unknown part comes from the construction. Originally, he just let the slaves build it according to the blueprint. He only needs to control the overall situation, so why bother to go out in person?

Could it be that there is some ingenuity in it, and he needs to see it in person, so that there is no mistake?

I thought about it for a moment, then rolled the corners of my lips deliberately, turned around and left my aunt in charge, and looked at the four soldiers who came with me.

This group of soldiers is different from the last time I was escorted back to Xiapi. Although they are all black armor, they have black and red dark patterns of black birds embroidered on the chest and abdomen of the black armor. The blazing light flickers, almost like a fire bird dancing on flames, so it is called the first army of the martyrs.

Calling it the head is also because since its establishment, it has been enshrined in the ranks of the King of Song Dynasty. Not only is its status higher than that of ordinary soldiers, but also its accessories are different.

What I fell in love with was the exquisite crossbows at their waists that were different from ordinary soldiers with halberds and swords.

Unlike longbows, crossbows can shoot far away, but they are extremely good at penetrating power, as long as they are shot, they can pierce armor and break bones. The specially made hexagonal barbs on the knife can even crack the flesh of the wound. Not only is it difficult to take it out, even if it is taken out, the bone marrow will add to the injury, which is far more difficult to heal than a flesh wound, and its power is far beyond that of a longbow. compared to.

"You guys, come here."

I rolled my eyes, looked at them with a smile and hooked my fingers.

The four soldiers were puzzled and startled. Under my deepening persecution, the front left soldier who seemed to be the leader stepped forward and saluted, "Princess, my servant is only responsible for your safety. If you encounter chaos, you must not act recklessly."

The words were upright and dignified, and the detainees became the heartfelt guards. I sneered in my heart, but I didn't show my authenticity on the face, "I didn't ask you to do anything, what are you afraid of?"

While hesitating, the leading soldier stepped forward, "Princess, what are your orders?"

"Since you are not allowed to act recklessly, how dare I ask you to do anything." I smiled to myself, and while talking to him, my eyes fell on the crossbow hanging from his back waist, I turned my eyes and said, "It's very boring to be idle. I don’t have anything to pass the time to play with, seeing that the thing on your waist is novel, why don’t you take it off and show me a few glances?”

"This..." The surprise and fear he suppressed was even more profound, and he pushed his hands straight to say, "The crossbow looks small but is actually heavy. I may not be able to handle the injury on the princess's right hand. It may hurt the old wound. The princess still thinks elsewhere. Just have fun."

"When did I ask you bunch of scumbags to talk me in the face? What should I do?" What he said in turn were all reasonable words, but I had already made up my mind, how could I easily obstruct him? Pressed on Bo Nu to apply pressure.

"I don't dare!" He knelt down half-kneeling, expressing his indomitable intentions with military salute.

"Since you dare not, you still haven't presented it!"

The few of them guarded me and stayed in the Tangchi Palace, they have seen my moody behavior in daily life, and they all trembled their shoulders for me at this moment.I put these reactions in my eyes, and sneered at them, but they are just people who are afraid of death.

"Yes."

He responded stiffly, untied the crossbow with his backhand and presented it.

I handed the feather fan to my aunt in charge, and took the crossbow.

Although he has a solid mind, the crossbow is still too heavy to start with, and there is a slight crack and pain in his right wrist when he presses it. He managed to hold back the crossbow with a little strength, and looked carefully. Under the weight, one can't help but sigh that the person who built it must have a pair of very delicate hands.

Crossbows and bows are generally made of multi-layered bamboo and wood chips. This crossbow is not only made of bamboo and wood, but also has a layer of light armor wrapped in high-quality bronze for protection. In order to balance the weight, the bamboo and wood itself are convenient It is thinner and thinner than ordinary Jinnu.

The black bird totem with tattoos on the bronze not only looks luxurious, but also is about to fly. He rushed out in flames.

I was overjoyed and amazed to see it, my fingertips were caressing, I slid to the hole of the bow that was running across, and there was nothing in the hole, suddenly I felt a sense of scheming, I lightly pursed my lips, and my eyes fell on Rongrong The bow holes are crossed on the copper arms facing each other.

The copper arm stretched the ditch-shaped arrow path for the arrow clusters. The arrow path was three times deep. As I expected, three hexagonal arrow clusters had already been mounted, and a lot of abrasive grains ooze out from the sides of the arrows. Slipping the cold light, I think that Shidao has used it many times, and he has already polished it to a mirror-like unimpeded smoothness.

There are quite a few people who want to assassinate the father and king.

He smiled coldly, but his joy was a little scattered, but the hand holding the crossbow was clenched even tighter.

Minutely lowered his gaze, and saw a hook-cast and embroidered box hung on his back arm, the box could be held in the palm of the hand, and there was a shallow hook in front, and the transparent bowstring was caught in the shallow hook like this, touching the arrow tufted tail feathers , and a ring hole like a round coin is protruded from the top.

I held the lower part of the box, hooked the buckle in the box with my fingertips, looked at the soldier through the eyebrows through the ring hole, and asked pretending to be light and ignorant, "What are these things, how are they used? "

"These are all the duties of the servants. The princess can take a look at it, and don't worry about how the gods use it." The soldier was secretly startled when I pointed at him, and his face turned pale.

When I saw him frightened, I couldn't help laughing at where did his wear and smoothness come from. Logically speaking, if you can use a crossbow like this, you must be a person who is good at using it. He shouldn't be a person who is afraid of death. man of.

Fortunately, he is a guy who is afraid of death.

The master taught me for five years, not only some unofficial historical miscellaneous records, but also the way of using soldiers in various countries. If I don't know how to use the crossbow, how can I just look at the crossbow from their armor?

They are extremely vigilant in their daily protection, and arrow clusters are loaded on their crossbows from time to time, as long as there is any change, they can be untied and used immediately.What I planned was to be vigilant and guard against the arrow. At this moment, I turned my arrows and aimed at him. If I accidentally slipped my hand, it would be him who died.

He is so afraid of death, how can he not be afraid.

Intentionally confused, and aiming at him ignorantly, just to scare him, to conclude that I am not good at shooting arrows, and dare not tell lies in front of my father, so that I will not doubt what I am about to do It was done on purpose.

"Isn't your duty to protect me and obey orders?" I took half a step closer, almost hitting his sweaty forehead with the arrows of the crossbow.

"Yes." He couldn't avoid it, stood up in fear, turned sideways quickly to get out of the way, and raised his finger to point to the crossbow groove in a false alarm and said, "This is the crossbow groove. When you use it, put the cluster of arrows in the In the crossbow groove, pull the crossbow string to the mouth of the teeth, hold the crossbow receiver under the bracket, press the hanging knife of the receiver with your fingertips, look at the mountain through the ring hole and aim at the prey, and you can press it down at three points and one line Hanging the knife. At this time, trigger the jaws to sink forward, and the crossbow strings will use full force to shoot the arrows out. The pressure of the crossbow strings is different, and the momentum is also strong. This crossbow has three teeth. waste, and the last hurdle is to kill with all your strength, one string is moved and three arrows are fired, if a person is hit, he will die and be destroyed."

I saw him heaving a sigh of relief, and when he talked about the ingenuity, his eyebrows were very excited. He was probably a person who had some skills but was afraid of death, so I suppressed a sarcasm in my heart, and made a look of understanding suddenly, and pointed my fingertips He moved lightly on the hanging knife, "So, the strength of the crossbow depends entirely on the mechanism, even if my strength is not heavy, I can still shoot the arrows with light movements of my fingers?"

"exactly."

The inadvertent act of me deliberately pressing down on the hanging knife made him take a deep breath, looked at me carefully and said, "But the crossbow string is made of high-quality beef tendon, if the pulling force of the string is not enough, the crossbow string cannot be stretched to the limit Tooth and crossbow are useless."

"Really?" Seeing that he did not give up trying to stop me, I closed my eyes pretending to be disappointed and bored, and landed on the tail feathers of the arrow clusters that had already been drawn, and deliberately opened my eyes and said, "Didn't you draw the bow well?" Well, let me see how powerful the crossbow is?"

"Princess!" He shouted urgently, "No way!"

After acting for such a long time, I had long been impatient, so I ignored him and smiled slyly, and moved to look at him.

He hurriedly knelt down and shouted, "Everyday walking, the number of arrow clusters is fixed. If the princess shoots arrows rashly, nothing will happen. I will definitely be held accountable when I go back!"

I pretended to be cheating, and said disapprovingly, "It's not just three arrows. Anyway, I used them for fun. If you go back and report it, he will punish you and let him come to me directly."

Slowly spinning with my heels, I lifted the crossbow and walked around them, finally turned around and pointed at the crowd that was still busy under the scorching sun.

"Princess!"

The cold voice of the aunt in charge finally sounded, and she could not stand it anymore after watching this quietly.

I sneered, glanced at her, lifted Wangshan straight up and pointed it at the slow-moving strange bird carrying a huge boulder, and pressed down the hanging knife hard!

She rushed over, but it was too late after all.

Pressing hard for her, I took advantage of the situation and let go, and the crossbow fell to the ground with a clatter, unable to suppress my intentional yelling.

"Relieve Floating Life!"

Jie Fusheng had already heard the strange bird's neighing and pain, and when he looked up and saw the huge boulder quickly pressing and falling, he looked back at me in horror and deep, he didn't know whether it was puzzled or frightened, and then he rushed out with a pale face!

"boom!"

The huge boulder hit the ground heavily, splashing thick smoke and dust, which also disrupted the orderly and stable situation. The crowd scattered in panic, not only avoiding the injured strange bird that was still thumping on the ground, but also the group of guard soldiers. The commanding halberd.

The smoke and dust gradually settled, and Jie Fusheng's half-kneeling figure appeared.

The stunned slave fell down beside him, staring at his blood-stained right body unharmed. After a while, he screamed in panic, almost uttering the sound of the wounded and mournful bird.

The two soldiers rushed over, kicked the slave over, twisted his hands and pressed him under the loess, burying all the screams.

Jie Fusheng slowly raised his head to look into the distance, and made a gesture with great difficulty, the injured and struggling strange bird that was about to pounce on him just paused, and only paid attention to the grievance humming.Above the head, the flock of strange birds that were about to rush also reversed their direction, circling around Jie Fusheng, all neighing unwillingly and unwillingly.

The boulder weighs as much as a thousand catties, and the covering is also a radius of Zhang Xu. Even the monster bird catches and flies slowly and carefully. I chose to shoot the monster bird because of its huge size, and it moves slowly while falling on the boulder, so it is easy to shoot. .

Judging from my careful observation of Xie Fusheng's behavior of walking among the slaves just now, in order to carefully arrange the construction and make no mistakes, he also seemed to have a heart of protection for the slaves, and there was a sense of being carefree and easy to get along with.

It is precisely because of this discovery that I came up with such a plan. The strange bird can hold on to the boulder and fly slowly. If it is injured, it will definitely not be able to catch the boulder. Then a heart of compassion for slaves will definitely make a choice in order to protect those slaves. In unavoidable situations, it is either life or death.

I shouted deliberately, not only to remind him to make a choice, but also to create a scene that I didn't do it on purpose. For me, I have put aside all doubts that were deliberately designed.

Although there was a possibility that he might live or die, I was really surprised to see that he really chose to save someone, even saving the slave for the sake of hurting himself.

Blood stained his jade-like pale cheeks, and the coquettish blood texture made him look like a ghost from hell, coldly seeing through all my calculations.

His glance was so indifferent and thorough, it not only made me lose all the joy and satisfaction that tortured him, but also made me realize that since when did I become disregarding human life and only want to achieve my own plan? The cold-blooded person?Is it because the deliberate and cruel behaviors these days have gradually carved into my bones, completely submerging my true heart?

I came to a daze, cold sweat dripped down my feet, I couldn't move and opened my eyes to see him fall down again, the smoke and dust splashed up filled his body and covered my heart.
