The white flags in Yanliang City are like a sea, and the cold rain turns into ice overnight, and the days that have long since warmed up are full of snow and snow.
The flying snow was falling quietly, and the smoke and war that stretched for tens of miles in the wilderness, and the blood flowed into rivers, were all covered silently by the quietly falling snow. The vast expanse of land is white, quiet, and there is no sound of wind, just endless white, quiet and peaceful.
The silent snow curtain hangs down from the sky and the earth. Qing Chen stepped gently into the snow, staring indifferently at the white banners all over the city, his pale face seemed paler than the snow.
The first battle was won, the reinforcements from the Celestial Dynasty arrived, the rebel leader Yu Su died in battle, and the Turkic soldiers retreated for more than forty miles... All this seems to be a hasty dream, making people laugh out of nothing.
The lingering feeling of thick blood in front of her eyes was entangled and stagnated in her chest. She slowly raised her hand to press on her heart, raised her head and let the cold snow fall all over her body.
With a snap of the fingers, today is not yesterday, people are gone, blood is like flowers.
No one will turn their heads and smile in front of them again, even the sun is suppressed, and there are only snow shadows in the sky in the empty space.
It was as painful as a poisonous snake, biting people's bone marrow, and she almost used all her strength to resist it. When the heavy coffin was about to cover Eleven's smile in darkness forever, she felt that as long as the coffin lid did not fall, Eleven would not leave. , everything is false.
It's just a nightmare, and the dream will always wake up. As long as the coffin lid stays on, Eleven will still be there.
I don't know who took her away from the mourning hall, and endless darkness flooded in. At that moment, there was boundless sadness.
Waking up to this endless white, Qiongzhi Yaolin, is absolutely beautiful, but something is lost forever and can never be found again.
Light snow fell on his shoulders, Qing Chen stood for a long time, then walked forward slowly, and when he reached a place not far from the mourning hall, he still stopped in the end. The scene in front of her seemed to be blurred, she lowered her eyes sadly and stopped, but at this moment she heard Ye Tianling's voice from inside, "You are finally satisfied."
She was slightly taken aback, and after a dignified silence, someone said: "Fourth brother must blame me, and I have nothing to say." This familiar voice is gentle and gentle, as light as a breeze, but at this time it is as cold as snow in the wind, extremely bleak .
After two short sentences, there was no more sound, and there was a pressing silence all around.
What broke the dead silence was a sharp clear cry. Suddenly, the cold wind swept the snow, the murderous aura surged in the quiet space, and the sound of gold and jade intersecting burst out one after another. Qing Chen woke up suddenly and stepped forward quickly.
The snow was flying, and there were chaotic shadows. White clothes and blue shirts were intertwined on the snow in front of him. Sword lights and flute shadows were messy.
Qing Chen stayed on the spot for a while. Between the sword qi, the murderous intent in Ye Tianling's eyes was as clear as ice blades, cold and cold, threatening to kill people.
Ye Tianzhan, dressed in white, moves forward and backward, seemingly free and easy, with the jade flute in his hand passing through the wind and snow, attacking and defending calmly, but his face is as frosty as a cage. For some unknown reason, after several moves, he suddenly retreated frequently, gradually losing the wind.
The light of the sword in Ye Tianling's hand soared, and the surrounding ice and snow seemed to turn into a scorching cold light, suddenly covering him in front of him. Ye Tianzhan's complexion changed slightly, the sword and flute collided, and there was a dull golden sound, and the jade flute came out of his hand.
Ye Tianling's offensive continued unabated, his long sword whistling like a falling star, directly attacking his opponent.
Qing Chen was horrified, and hurriedly shouted: "Fourth brother, no!" Before he thought about it, he had already rushed between the two of them.
How powerful Ye Tianling's sword is, the wind, rain and thunder are hard to stop. Suddenly seeing Qing Chen rushing forward alone, the two people in the field were shocked at the same time!
Ye Tianling's sword was withdrawn in a hurry, Ye Tianzhan flew a wrong step, swiped out with one palm, and hit the edge of his sword without deviation or obliquely, a stream of blood flew out, and the long sword passed Qing Chen's eyes. Even so, the sword energy was fierce, and there was still a sharp "chi" sound, splitting half of her skirt with a long hole.
The momentum of returning the sword was like a huge wave counterattacking, almost causing Ye Tianling to stagger a few steps before he could stabilize his figure, the blood in his chest was surging, and it was almost difficult to hold on. Ye Tianzhan's hands were full of blood, dripping into the snow, instantly turning the white snow red, "Qing Chen! Are you okay?" He grabbed Qing Chen and asked.
After the thrilling adventure, Qing Chen knew that she had walked between life and death, she froze where she was, and turned her head slightly later: "Fourth Brother..."
The long sword in Ye Tianling's hand froze in mid-air, pointing obliquely in front of him, extremely frightened and angry. That expression was as if thousands of miles of ice and snow were falling in his eyes, with bottomless coldness, the overwhelming snow fell behind him, against the loneliness of his blue shirt, the world was silent for a while.
After a long silence, a breeze blew up, and the snow on the branches "slapped" down. Ye Tianling's sword body shook, and he said coldly: "Get out of the way."
The tone of the words was deep and cold, and Qing Chen knew that he was really angry. If he couldn't stop it, the consequences would be disastrous. She shook her head and said, "Fourth brother, you can't..."
"Get out of the way." Two short words burst out from between the teeth, Ye Tianling passed her, and looked at Ye Tianzhan coldly.
Qing Chen took a step forward: "If you want to kill him, kill me first!"
Ye Tianling glanced over suddenly, piercing her eyes as cold as a sword. Qing Chen's palm trembled slightly, but he didn't back down: "You can't kill him."
Ye Tianzhan stopped Qing Chen, his voice was equally cold: "Qing Chen, get out of the way."
Qing Chen turned her head quickly, without saying a word, she just stared at Ye Tianzhan with an indescribable gaze.
Ye Tianzhan raised his eyes proudly, and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw a faint layer of mist floating in her clear eyes, the deep sadness was almost desolate, and it made people's hearts ache. He frowned: "Qing Chen..."
Ye Tianling watched all this coldly, his face frosty, "Are you determined to protect him?" Facing Qing Chen, his dark eyes were filled with anger and pain.
Qing Chen said: "Fourth brother, calm down..."
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Tianling nodded slowly, "Okay, okay, okay!" He said three words "Okay" in a row, then threw his backhand fiercely, and the three-foot long sword entered without a hilt, hitting it deeply into the snow. He glanced at Qing Chen again, and walked away resolutely. In an instant, his figure disappeared into the boundless snow.
Qing Chen stood there in a daze, the icy snow fell all over her chest, she didn't seem to notice it. After a period of silence, Ye Tianzhan said slowly, "You don't have to do this."
Qing Chen looked at him: "The three brothers led the army, if only one of them returns alive, no matter whether that person is you or him, they will not be able to explain to the emperor."
Ye Tianzhan's eyes fell on her face, and he smiled suddenly, as if he understood something, that smile was like flying snow, very light and very dark. He suddenly put his hands on his chest, and coughed out suppressedly. The blood from the wound stained the skirt of his clothes, winding down shockingly on the snow-white gown.
Seeing that his face was extremely pale, Qing Chen frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Ye Tianzhan shook his head slightly, adjusted his breathing secretly, and then said hoarsely: "Do you hate me?"
Qing Chen's eyes gradually darkened, and a bleakness like the shadow of the remnant autumn moon quietly floated up: "We chose this road ourselves, you, me, fourth brother, and eleven, no one has the right to hate anyone." She looked up sadly, Looking up at the fluttering snow, there is unspeakable loneliness in his eyes: "Whether it is hatred or resentment, Shi Shi will never come back."
With such a calm tone and such a cold expression, Ye Tianzhan seemed to be struck by lightning, his body swayed slightly, and he almost couldn't stand steadily. He seemed to use great strength to support himself. After a long time, Fang said: "Yes, I will never come back again. Once we embark on this road, who of us can turn back?" , cool the mind and body.
Qing Chen looked at him quietly: "So I don't blame anyone, since it's my own choice, I can't blame others."
Ye Tianzhan said: "I have tried my best."
Qing Chen nodded: "I know."
Ye Tianzhan looked at her with gentle warmth gradually, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, he smiled silently, turned and left without saying a word.
The thin gust of wind swept across the flat open space in front of him, the snow was dazzling, and the eyes were forced to burst out with soreness.
A line of tears, scattered bitterness, Qing Chen is alone in the endless snow curtain, the hair scarf blown by the wind is dancing lightly, and the white clothes are lonely.
Two bluebirds flapped their wings and flew up from the branches, and flakes of snow fell in shock, and they flew away into the vast snow forest hand in hand. Unexpectedly, someone coughed softly behind him, Qing Chen raised his hand to wipe his wet face, and turned to look.
To her surprise, the person behind him was Wan Qi Shuofeng, who was wearing a jet-black robe with his hands behind his back, and he looked at him with interest.
Qing Chen didn't speak, Wan Tuo Shuofeng walked forward leisurely, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You didn't need to block that sword just now."
There was something special in his words, Qing Chen looked up quietly: "How can you see that?"
Wan Tuo Shuofeng moved his eyes to the snow field not far away. The fresh blood stains on the white background were like red plum blossoms, and a thin layer of fresh snow had been added. He said: "One more move, Ye Tianling will find the opponent There is an injury, I think with his temperament, I am afraid that he will not kill him at this time."
Ye Tianzhan's extremely pale face flashed in front of Qing Chen's eyes. After careful consideration, it was indeed unusual, but she didn't care about it just now, and she didn't notice it at all. Her brows were slightly tightened: "No wonder, so he was injured."
Wan Tushuofeng said: "I really admire your Royal Highness King Zhan, he has rushed to Yanliang at this time. I thought that the 100,000 troops who shot to protect the Khan could stop him for two days."
Qing Chen said: "The people who shoot and protect the Khan are in Yanliang, and they are besieging the city with heavy troops. Where can there be another 100,000 troops?"
Wan Tushuofeng said: "It's good to shoot and protect the Khan in Yanliang, but Heersa, the wise king of the Western Turks, secretly led one hundred thousand elite soldiers to block the reinforcements from the Celestial Dynasty, and many of them are top-notch masters. How can it be so easy to deal with? Even without this An army of 100,000 will take a lot of time to go from Jizhou to Yanliang. But compared to this, I am actually more interested to know why you led your troops to Baizhangyuan so quickly?"
If it wasn't for the delay that day, Qing Chen and Nan Gong Jing would not be able to provide reinforcements in time. Late garrison is a taboo in the army, Qing Chen only said: "From Jizhou to Baizhangyuan, there is not only one road."
Wan Teng Shuofeng didn't ask any further questions, but said casually: "King Zhan is no ordinary opponent. Sooner or later, the two of them will have conflicts. If you can stop it for a while, can you stop it for the rest of your life?"
Qing Chen said: "When it comes to the situation in Mobei, I think I'm not as familiar as you, but you don't know the mind of the Emperor of Heaven better than I do. I can't ignore this matter."
Wan Tushuofeng said: "I would like to hear the details."
Qing Chen stretched out his hand lightly, and a piece of flying snow fell on his fingertips, turning into a drop of crystal water. She smiled thinly and said: "The most taboo thing in the heart of the Emperor of Heaven is brotherhood and brotherhood. He can tolerate anything. However, I will never allow this to happen. If any one of their brothers dies in the hands of the other party, the other will also be difficult for the Emperor of Heaven, so I must stop his sword."
Wan Tushuofeng looked like a smile but not a smile, and said coldly: "Some things don't need to be done by yourself."
Qing Chen was startled, his phoenix eyes flicked lightly, but his white jade-like face was calm and undisturbed: "You can say that, it seems that I don't have to doubt your sincerity at all."
Wan Teng Shuofeng nodded: "Yes, after I stepped into Yanliang City, I feel that this adventure is worth it."
Qing Chen raised his eyes and asked, Wan Cheng Shuofeng continued: "Ye Tianling can look at his beloved woman with such eyes, and can draw a sword for his brother, I believe what you said, Rouran will always be his mother clan, And for me, he should also be... a brother." There was a hint of desolation in his words, like the setting sun on the plain in the winter, boundless. Rouran's only remaining solitary blood, looking up at the world, only blood enmity and hatred, the word "brother" is spoken, and there is a strange feeling in the strangeness.
Qing Chen seemed to be affected by his unexpected emotions, sighed slightly, and said later: "I just advise you, don't plot against him, don't confront him head-on, if you treat him like a brother, he will treat you like a brother. "
Wan Teng Shuofeng smiled and said, "Thank you for the reminder." As soon as he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of a white spot flying from the corner of his eyes, a tiny spot of white, which would be missed if he was negligent under the falling snow, but it did not escape his sharpness. gaze. His brows tightened suddenly, and after a whistle, the golden eagle with him shot up into the sky from nowhere, broke through the snow shadows, and chased after him.
But in a short while, the golden eagle circled high in the sky and swooped back, holding a white pigeon firmly under its claws, struggling desperately.
Wan Teng Shuofeng took the pigeon in his hand, and the golden eagle flapped its wings and landed on his shoulder. He took the pigeon's wings away casually, and took a small roll from its leg. Inside was a very small piece of thin paper. When he opened it, he and Qing Chen were surprised at the same time. picture.
Qing Chen said in a deep voice, "Someone tipped off Turkic."
Wan Teng Shuofeng looked at the pigeon in his hand repeatedly as if nothing had happened, and said: "This is exactly what I want to tell you. There have been people in the Celestial Army who have secretly contacted the East Turks. When the Xuanjia Army attacked Mocheng and turned to Yanliang, before Then someone revealed the marching route, which is why the Turkic army was able to block the Xuanjia army so smoothly. That day in Baizhang Plain, I was able to block your army and Shi Zhonghou's army exactly for the same reason."
Qing Chen's eyes gradually turned cold, and he said coldly, "Who is it?"
Wan Tushuofeng shook his head: "I don't even know who Tongda is, only Shiluo Khan knows. I also tried to check, but this person is very cautious. I only know that he uses pigeons to send messages, so just now When you see pigeons flying out of the city, you know something is different."
Qing Chen slowly held a handful of ice and snow in his hand, no wonder the Xuanjia army was intercepted so easily, no wonder she still encountered the Turkic army head-on after all kinds of maneuvers, the wind and snow could not suppress a little anger in her heart, and faintly ignited. She took a deep breath, and then said to Wan Chengshuo: "The only way to find out this person is from Yanliang City, and I trouble you to bring the pigeon and the letter to His Royal Highness."
Wan Chengshuofeng looked up at her: "Why don't you go by yourself?"
Qing Chen frowned and looked at him, and said after a while: "This is your best chance to gain his trust." She knew that Wan Qi Shuo Feng could not refuse.
As expected, Wan Teng Shuofeng was stunned, and then laughed out loud: "If you say you are stupid, you are as clear as ice and snow everywhere; if you say you are smart, you are really hopeless. I don't know whether you are smart or stupid!"
Qing Chen turned slightly, his brows were clear and light, and his light was far away, looking at the fine and dense flying snow, and remained silent.
