Early in the morning, in Shang Jun's study, Wei Xi reported the information he had found in the past few days, "Master, Cang Yue's army has already camped fifty miles outside Linfeng Pass, with about 70,000 people, all of them former troops of the Wu family. , the combat ability is very strong, but the coach this time is a general who has never heard of it, called You Xiao."
Yu Xiao? Shang Jun was still flipping through the ledger, how could it be him? He was just the head of the bodyguards by Long Chimu's side, so why was he appointed as the head coach? Long Chimu should know that marching and fighting is not easy, and no matter how high your martial arts are, it is useless!
Shang Jun thought for a while and asked, "What's going on here in the east corner?"
"Xuanyuan Yi brought three thousand men and horses to Linfeng Pass three days ago in the name of inspecting the border pass."
"Has Xuanyuan Yi come?" He had already guessed that Dongyu would do something, but it was Xuanyuan Yi, the general of the township known as the "God of War", he never thought of it!
Wei Xi nodded and replied, "Yes, and General Zhang Xiaofei, the original garrison in the east corner, has been transferred from Linfeng Pass."
Shang Jun secretly sighed, Xuan Tianguo was very cautious. The last letter from Huang Shijie and Cang Yue should have been presented to the imperial court. For the sake of safety, Xuan Tiancheng even transferred Zhang Xiaofei, who had been stationed here all the year round, because he was afraid that it was Zhang Xiaofei. It must have been bought by Cang Yue for many years. From the current situation, war is inevitable.
Because of this upcoming war, his heart is a little disordered, but his face is still calm. Shang Jun said lightly: "Watch the changes, deal with it carefully, and try not to get involved."
Wei Xi replied in a deep voice, "Yes."
Shang Jun remained silent, Wei Xi was about to withdraw when he suddenly asked, "Has the merchant ship to the sea set off?"
"Let's go, received the news from the dark guard, Qin Gongzi has safely boarded the boat." The master seems to be very concerned about Qin Gongzi's affairs. Since Qin Gongzi left until now, he has asked three times.
"That's good, go get busy." Just get on the boat, he doesn't need to worry anymore.
"Yes."
Wei Xi retreated calmly. Thinking of the upcoming war, Shang Jun's heart could not be calm. Next, how should he face it? Is this war a chance for him
It was another hot midsummer night, and the moon was as bright as water, clearly illuminating the thousands of tents that were neatly set up in a large open space. In the military camp, five soldiers patrolled back and forth in the camp. On the dense tree next to the barracks, a dark shadow was hidden among the branches and leaves, his eyes flashing with a clear and sharp light, staring intently at the main business in the middle.
Shang Jun was thinking about whether to approach him or not. He was a little irritable. After thinking about it for an afternoon, he still didn't understand his state of mind. He wanted to follow Shu Qing's advice, ignore politics, and take care of himself. He didn't want to let go of any actions regarding Long Chimu, this time Cang Yue and Dong Yu's battle might be beneficial to him, You Xiao should not be Xuanyuan Yi's opponent!
Still thinking about it, a man dressed in a pure white Confucian shirt appeared leisurely in front of the main office, and the striking white shuttled among a group of soldiers in uniform, which looked so abrupt. He only stood in front of the main business for a while, but You Xiao actually came out to greet him and invited him in. Shang Jun frowned slightly, who is this person? With doubts in his heart, Shang Jun no longer hesitated, jumped off the treetop easily, and under the cover of the shady curtain, he approached the main business very quickly, and before the tent, he did not dare to get too close, first of all, it was You Xiao's martial arts Gao Qiang, secondly, he was not sure about the depth of the man in white, so he couldn't act rashly.
Going around to the back of the main tent, which is far away from the discussion place, it is not easy to be found. With the thin blade hidden in the sleeves, a thin opening is gently cut, and Shang Jun lifted a corner and squinted to see.
The man in white sat opposite You Xiao, and the man was sitting in the upper seat. Shang Jun was slightly stunned. The identity of this man must be much higher than that of You Xiao, otherwise You Xiao, as the head coach, would have been subservient. Next? Shang Jun wanted to see the man in white clearly, but unfortunately he was behind the tent, and only saw his back. Judging from his behavior, he was gentle and elegant, and there was an aristocratic atmosphere all over his body.
"Young Master Jiu's strategy is very good, I'm afraid it won't be easy to do. After all, one is an important court official, and the other is a giant in the East." You Xiao's voice came slightly hesitantly.
The man laughed heartily, and replied confidently: "General You don't need to worry, I will handle it myself."
With his assurance, You Xiao also smiled and said, "Since that's the case, let's do it according to Ninth Young Master's wishes."
"General You are refreshing."
"Where, if it wasn't for Ninth Young Master's great help, I'm afraid this matter would not have gone so smoothly. It's not too early, Ninth Young Master should rest early, and it's not too late to discuss other things in detail tomorrow."
"Alright, farewell." The man in white got up and walked out of the main office leisurely.
But Shang Jun was lost in thought, standing in this position, with his ear, he could hear the conversation just now clearly, who are the giants in the east they are referring to? Will it be Shu Qing? What is the so-called conspiracy
While Shang Jun was still thinking about it, You Xiao's cold voice came from the tent again, "Come out."
Shang Jun was shocked, he held his breath against the tent, and saw You Xiao's sharp eyes looking straight in the direction he was in. He was already very careful, was he still discovered? You Xiao walked over step by step, each step was slow and forceful, as if each step had to step on the enemy's heart. The palm of Shang Jun's hand on the soft sword also sweated slightly, but he did not intend to show up at this time. You Xiao was a difficult opponent. Every time he fought, he seemed to be stronger, and he had to wait for the opportunity quietly.
Just when You Xiao was about to walk in front of Shang Jun, a shadowy shadow held a long sword and stabbed at You Xiao's throat. It's a pity that You Xiao was already prepared, one sideways dodged the long sword, and quickly moved forward, punching the man in black on the shoulder, and the man in black fell to the side in embarrassment, smashing a jade screen.
Seeing such clumsy skills, You Xiao's arrogant eyes had a hint of disappointment. He thought it would be the man who had humiliated him several times, but he turned out to be just a thief. Thinking about it, if it were him, he wouldn't be exposed so easily. He glanced at the man in black impatiently, and snorted coldly, "There are really people who are not afraid of death."
Shang Jun let go of Fujian's hand, lifted his footsteps lightly, and was about to leave. Since he had a scapegoat, he didn't need to confront You Xiao any more, so he took a step forward. Shang Jun heard a familiar and unfamiliar male voice. "Don't be ashamed, let Grandpa teach you a lesson!"
Shang Jun looked at the man in black. The man had already stood up and was fighting against You Xiao, but he was obviously not your opponent. He was slightly tall and burly, with ordinary skills, but why did the voice sound familiar? There is no need for Shang Jun to think hard, because the face of the man in black has been taken off by You Xiao. Seeing the appearance of the man in black, Shang Jun's eyes flashed slightly. It was Wang Ping, the deputy general of the East Yu garrison!
Was Wang Ping here under orders to come to inquire, or was he reckless, should he save him? Shang Jun weighed the stakes and finally decided to leave.
Just when he was about to leave again, Wang Ping was kicked in the chest by You Xiao, and was smashing at Shang Jun at a very fast speed. Holding Wang Ping's vest slowed down the force of his fall. Wang Ping only felt a thick palm supporting him behind him, and he also flipped up and landed smoothly.
This momentary change forced Shang Jun to be exposed in front of You Xiao. You Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then unexpectedly turned out to be in a good mood. He smiled and said, "You really came."
You Xiao's expression made Shang Jun feel very weird, it was just creepy. Shang Jun said to Wang Ping who was standing beside him, "Go."
Who knew that Wang Ping was still a tough guy, and loudly replied: "No, I am a person who is greedy for life and fears death!"
Shang Jun said impatiently: "Go, don't get in the way here." Now he just wants to leave quickly, and this person is really in the way!
"You!" Wang Ping got angry and walked away.
You Xiao doesn't care about Wang Ping's escape, because even if he escapes now, he will surely die! What he cares about is the person in front of him, the person he can recognize at a glance even if he wears a face towel! The man who made him hate sleepless nights! Merchant!
With three points of ruthlessness, three points of banter, and three points of excitement, You Xiao stared at Shang Jun and said with a half-smile, "You brought it to your door today."
Shang Jun hated this feeling, as if he was a prey to be slaughtered, he looked back at You Xiao coldly, and replied with disdain: "I will come to your military camp if I want, and I will leave if I want to go."
"Really?" Instead of being angry because of Shang Jun's provocation, You Xiao laughed even more wanton and said word by word, "Don't you notice that your blood is not smooth and your chest is tight?"
Shang Jun secretly moved his whole body, and sure enough, he felt his blood stagnate, his chest was as sad as a big stone, and he could hardly breathe. He didn't turn pale in shock, but stared at You Xiao's proud face coldly, quickly thinking about the countermeasures in his mind. He wanted to exercise again, but found that every time he exercised, the feeling of oppression deepened. Later, his throat became sticky, and a mouthful of dirty blood slipped from his lips. He couldn't see it through the face towel, but it was faintly bloody. The smell permeated between the two.
Shang Jun didn't dare to act rashly, he just looked at You Xiao cautiously, he knew that he was poisoned!
"You want to say I'm mean? This is what I prepared for you." You Xiao gently moved the corner of his mouth, but he couldn't see a smile at all. Looking at Shang Jun's stiff body and sweaty forehead, You Xiao's heart rose. There was a strange feeling, both excited and inexplicably irritable. He must have wanted to torture him so much that he was so weirdly irritable!
"Shangjun, you finally fell into my hands!"
Approaching Shang Jun step by step, You Xiao raised his hand slowly and rudely tore off the face towel from Shang Jun's face. He saw this stunningly handsome face again, even now, his face was pale and the corners of his lips were stained. Bloodstained, he was still so proud that You Xiao wanted to smash his arrogance with a palm!
"How would you like me to torture you?" You Xiao pretended to think, walking around Lord Shang, and asked, "Abolish your martial arts? Or break your tendons? Or do you like it? The meridians are all broken?" You Xiao chuckled as if asking, but it was more frightening than screaming frantically.
"It's not good? I see. Haven't you always been proud? How about hanging you from the mast to show the public?" Shang Jun didn't say a word, and looked forward with no expression on his face. His reaction was earlier than that of You Xiao. Unexpectedly, if he showed a little bit of fear at this time, he would not be the Shangjun he knew, and what he wanted to do was to humiliate him well and let him know the feeling of being slaughtered.
Shang Jun suddenly lowered his head, You Xiao couldn't see his expression clearly, stretched out his hand to hold his chin, and raised his head vigorously, the strength of his fingertips made Shang Jun's chin immediately pinch out a few dark red bruises , the cold touch of his hands made You Xiao feel dazed for a moment. Just this moment, he saw a glimmer of light in Shang Jun's eyes. You Xiao was startled. It was too late to step back. A silver light flashed. He only felt a cold on his face, followed by a burning pain. Thinking that Shang Jun was about to escape, the hand that grabbed his chin did not loosen due to the injury on his face, but instead tightened.
Shang Jun closed his eyes and fell down softly. You Xiao didn't even think about it, he stretched out his arms to wrap his waist and slowed his downward movement. Just when he hugged him tightly, You Xiao only felt a pain in the acupoint of Mingmen. He couldn't move, and at this time Shang Jun's eyes that were still closed slowly opened.
You Xiao glared at Shang Jun fiercely, and said angrily, "I didn't expect you to use such despicable and shameless methods!" How could he be so stupid, knowing that he was very cunning, when he fell, he was still will help him!
Shang Jun couldn't help gasping slightly. He originally planned to fall to the ground and raid him while You Xiao was checking whether he was alive or dead, but he didn't expect that he would help him. After secretly adjusting his breath for a while, Shang Jun slowly crawled out of You Xiao's arms, and he was so weak that he almost fell down again. Shang Jun supported the tent and replied in a cold voice, "You don't have to be so glorious! It's not a humiliation to treat others with the way of others!"
Shang Jun pressed his chest and staggered out from behind the tent. He didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear that he would not be able to run if the soldiers who were patrolling later found out or You Xiao shouted.
Sure enough, before Shang Jun climbed out of the tent, he heard You Xiao's roar.
"Shangjun! Stop for me!" He felt the sound of the soldiers running towards the main office. He knew that he could no longer use his gong, but Shangjun still did not choose to use his gong to lift his qi, and flew forward, just the scene in front of him. getting blurry...
"Damn it!" You Xiao was burning with anger at this time, damn Shang Jun! Does he know that the poison in him is the most yin poison - ice cover, which is refined from the hydra in the 10,000-year-old ice lake! There is no antidote, he will not survive for three days, if he is still forced to perform kung fu, he will meet the King of Hell tonight!
Damn businessman!
What the hell is he worried about? Afraid of his death? Wouldn't it be better if he died! better!
Shang Jun ran all the way, and when he got to the back, it was pitch black in front of him. He was running entirely by willpower. In the summer night, not only did he not feel hot, but it became colder and colder. The coldness came out from the bones, and the whole body was cold! Finally, he couldn't help but fell into the grass by the roadside.
On the mountain trail in the middle of the night, there should only be the noise of insects and cicadas, and the sound of wind and leaves. On the narrow path, a snow-white horse walked lazily from far to near. It could not be seen clearly under the swirling moon shadow. It seemed to be carrying something on the back of the white horse. When the clouds dissipated, it was clear that there was a man on the horse. The man was dressed in white and almost merged with the white horse. He was lying on the back of the horse with his hands behind his head, looking at the stars in the sky, and the young face. It's all comfortable.
"Shuangshuang, do you want me to mind this business?" The clear voice was as young as his face, and the half-squinted eyes were full of distress. He could smell the faint smell of blood from a long distance, and the smell of blood became stronger when he got closer. He didn't even need to look at him to know that there was a person in the grass, and he was a half-dead person.
The white horse stopped in front of the black shadow by the bushes.
The man chuckled, turned over and dismounted, patted the white horse's head, and smiled helplessly: "You are kind."
Walking in front of the shadow, the man squatted down halfway and hooked on the pulse gate of the man in black. It was so weak that he could barely feel the pulse. To save or not to save? The man glanced at the black shadow man's face, and at this moment, his whole body seemed to be struck by lightning, his face that was still pleasant was full of horror, and his hands trembled unconsciously. The man supported Shang Jun to sit up and leaned against his arms, took out a sapphire porcelain bottle from the cuff, poured out a few pills, and regardless of whether it was the treasure he usually cherished, he stuffed it into Shang Jun's mouth. Inside, after confirming that Shang Jun swallowed, the man's expression calmed down a little. He patted Shang Jun's cheek, and whispered, "Mr. Ru! You wake up!" After three years of absence, how could she have made herself so bad? This look!
I don't know if the pill is really so powerful, or if Shang Jun was always awake, and after a few low calls, Shang Jun finally slowly opened his eyes. In the darkness of the night, the man was carrying the moonlight on his back, so he couldn't see his face clearly. The place where Shang Jun entered his eyes was blurry, and he could only hear the eager male voice in his ear, calling out a name he could hardly remember - Jun Jun!
This name seems to have given Shang Jun strength. He grabbed the man's hand and tried to look at it, but unfortunately it was still in vain. Is he blind? Leaning on the man's arms, Shang Jun smelled the faint medicinal fragrance, this smell...
"Little Martial Uncle?" Shang Jun stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the person's face. The man grabbed his hand, took the initiative to bring his face close, and replied softly, "Your Majesty! It's me."
The skin under his hands is smooth and cool, with a high nose, thin lips, and deep eye sockets. Shang Jun calmed down and whispered, "It's really you!" With someone who was at ease by his side, he finally couldn't resist the pain in his body and completely fainted.
"Jun, Jun!" Qi Fenghua immediately caught Shang Jun's thin wrist. It was different from before. Now the pulse is strong, and it is strong every time, but it is very disordered! Could it be that the condensate pill collided with the poisonous gas? How could Jun Jun get such a strange poison
Before he had time to think about it, Qi Fenghua picked up Shang Jun and placed him on the horse. He also stepped onto the horse neatly, hugged her waist tightly, and said in a low voice, "Shuangshuang, hurry up!"
The white horse neighed and galloped away on the narrow forest path, where the original laziness could be seen. In the moonlight, only a white shadow was seen galloping along the path.
Inky darkness and deathly silence, Shang Xiao didn't know where she was, but only knew that the boundless darkness made her panic. She clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her flesh. She tried to calm herself with the pain in her palms, but it was useless. Squatting down, Shang Xiao hugged his knees, closed his eyes, his thin body shivered.
lol!
lol!
The whispering and whispering voice in his ears made Shang Xiao slowly open his eyes, look left and right, it was still pitch black, but the painful call became clearer and clearer, this is... this is my sister's voice! Shang Xiao stood up abruptly, although he was afraid, he resolutely walked slowly in the direction of the voice. The darkness seemed to be boundless, and the whispers in his ears were omnipresent. Shang Xiao just ran towards the front, determined that that was where his sister was.
Finally, there was a ray of light in the distance, and she saw the back that reassured her. She ran over quickly, and the person who was facing her back slowly turned around with a faint smile on her face. As she got closer, the smile on Shang Xiao's face turned into panic, because the face of Shang Jun in front of her was as white as paper, and blood slowly seeped out from her chest, abdomen, and arms on her usual white shirt, and gradually, The white clothes turned into a dazzling scarlet. He still smiled like that, but his face was almost transparent, and all the blood was slowly fading.
elder sister!
Shang smiled and opened his mouth, only to find that he couldn't make a sound, and he wanted to get closer, but was blocked by a layer of invisible things. No matter how hard she tried, it was in vain. The anxiety and fear in her heart suppressed her breathless, and she knelt on the ground in despair...
elder sister-
do not leave me! do not want!
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Lang Yue looked at Shang Xiao, who was struggling on the bed with some bewilderment. She had always been in a light sleep and heard intermittent and suppressed cries. When she came over, she saw that the young lady was frowning, tears were falling like rain, but her eyes were still tightly closed. Wait, is it a nightmare? After calling for a long time, Shang Xiao was still immersed in her own world. Lang Yue had to pat her cheek and shouted, "Miss, wake up! Wake up!"
