MTL - Emperor’s Conquest-Chapter 17 Linger

The setting sun was shining obliquely on the vast earth, the mountains were magnificent, and the sea of ​​clouds was faintly surging. The roundness of the peaks was outlined by the sunset with a touch of Phnom Penh. In front of my eyes was a large patch of deep green, endlessly green, as if it stretched to the horizon. I never knew that this wild pasture could be so vast, more than a few times more than the Royal Hunting Ground. The vastness of the heavens and the earth and the strength of the mountains and rivers, even the emperor's house, can't capture everything.

Xiao Ye took me out of the city to see this magnificent frontier, the boundless wilderness, and the territory he had developed with his own hands. For ten years, Turkic territory was still under our feet. This fertile and beautiful green field was still occupied by foreigners. Until the Battle of Ningshuo, Xiao Xie broke through the Turks and extended the northern border of the Northern Dynasties more than 600 miles to Huo Dufeng.

For the first time, I was struck by the beauty of heaven and earth. It turned out that there was another force besides Nine Palace, which was more convincing than Royal Heavenly Power.

Xiao Yan pointed his head in the distance. "That is Huo Dufeng, the highest mountain in the north. The snow peak has not been changed for thousands of years. No one has been able to climb above the mountainside. The herdsmen of the North have been passed down to the old. Do not profane. "

"I've never been to such a high place." I sighed sincerely, my heart was infinitely fascinated.

"I've only been to the mountainside," he said with a smile, "the only thing in the world that awes me is the power of heaven and earth."

It is not the first time that such rebellious words have been spoken from him. It sounded terrifying at first, but now I am calm. If someone else said this, it would be a rash offender, but it was only an understatement to say it from his mouth, and it was taken for granted.

"When you cross that mountain, you will see the desert. On all sides, there are yellow sands. The high hills will become Pingchuan in an instant, and the depth of the drifting sands will not reach the bottom. Now. "

Along the direction pointed by his whip, I can't help thinking about the desert and mad sand.

Long wind hunting, blowing his wind and rolling, blowing my long hair into chaos.

We also advised the horses and walked slowly, without the guards to follow, aside from the disturbance of common things, so if the two ride side by side in the quiet wilderness, the higher the sky, the wider the heart, the closer the people ...

The last ray of residual sun in the sky glowed with a brilliant afterglow, and sprinkled all the heavens and earth with golden light.

Looking at the red day at the end of the day, I suddenly gave birth to arrogance, and looked back at Xiao Yan with a smile and raised an eyebrow, "How does the king compare to riding with me?"

Xiao Xiao laughed loudly and pinned Zhuma, "Let you 300 steps!"

I didn't answer, I whip my backhand and yanked the dark horse down. The Mo Yan was probably never whipped by others. The fierce spleen was stimulated by this, and his hoof was immediately hoarse. Xiao Kun was startled, and he didn't wait for him to stop. I had slammed the horse's belly and urged the horse to jump out.

The white horse named "Shocking Clouds" in my seat is not all kinds of creatures. It is covered with snow and frosted by long bristles.

Xiao Zong chased after him, and the blackbird was truly extraordinary and shocked.

The black and white rides are gradually moving side by side, Xiao Yan looks at me side by side, with stunning eyes, and laughs loudly, "How much more patience do you have?"

I didn't answer with a smile. I spurred the horse, and let Changfeng hunt and hunt. I picked up the clothes and rolled it. My hair was flying. Drunk.

My riding has been taught by my uncle and father since childhood. However, when I saw Xiao Rong's riding, I was convinced and convinced, and Mo Mo's ability was even better. Me and it are already a little weak, but Xiao Yan is still calm, and Mo Yan is even more vigorous.

"Well, you won!" I took a deep breath, couldn't bear to urge the horse any more, and threw the whip at Xiao Yan with a smile.

"The princess made the offer." Xiao Yan smirked and slackened, staring at me gently, "Are you tired?"

I shook my head and smiled, brushing my hair, only to realize that I had gone too far, surrounded by boundless wilderness, and the sky was darkened. In the twilight, colorful wild flowers are blooming among the green fields. There are several felt houses and huts in the distance. Herders have already raised a campfire smoke. Herds of cattle and sheep were being driven home by herdsmen, and the cheerful melodious singing came from the herd.

"Where is this? We have gone so far!" I sighed in surprise.

Xiao Zheng said with a full face, "It seems that I can't go back to town tonight, I can only sleep out."

I spit my tongue out and panicked, "What to do, will there be wolves?"

"No wolf." Xiao Yan smiled at me with a smile, "everyone has one."

The fever behind my ears pretended not to understand, turned my head back, but couldn't help laughing.

It was getting dark. We simply went to the homes of the herdsmen and were catching up with the late-going shepherds. The women cooked the fragrant broth and filled the hot goat's milk.

The visit of our uninvited guests pleased the warm and simple herdsmen. No one asked us about our background, only to bring out the best wine and meat to treat us as a VIP. Several teenagers were envious of Mo Yan and Jing Yunyan, and the women were surrounded by us without any shyness, and they cried and laughed in kind. They marveled at my looks, marveled that my skin was as white as cow's milk, and my hair was as smooth as silk satin-this is the most simple and lovely word of praise I have ever heard.

When the wine was coming, people began to sing and dance around the campfire, playing instruments I had never seen before, and singing some songs that I did not understand.

Xiao Yan smiled in my ear, "That's Turkic."

I've seen some dumbfounded, softly, "They're not all Central Plains."

Xiao Xun nodded with a smile. "The Northland has always lived with different ethnic groups and intermarried with each other. Most of the herdsmen are Hu, and the folk customs are very different from the Central Plains."

I nodded slightly, feeling momentarily in my heart. We have fought against Turki for many years. The two countries have deep grudges, but the people still live in harmony. For more than 100 years, we have been married to each other and lived together here. You have me among you, and you have me. Although the territory can be defined by swords and guns, the bloodline customs are easily cut.

An elderly man with white beard invited Xiao Huan to drink with him, and just returned to the seat, but saw a girl with a ruddy face holding up the wine bowl, and boldly handed it to Xiao Huan, men and women around laughed and looked straight at us.

I didn't understand their customs, but saw Xiao Yan smiling and shaking his head, "I have a wife."

Instead of being shy, the girl stubbornly stomped her feet and turned to look at me, "Are you his woman?"

This straightforward word asked me a while, and when I looked back at Xiao Yan, he looked at me with a deep smile, and there was an indescribable warmth in my heart.

"Yes." I smiled slightly, raising my eyebrows to meet the girl's provocative gaze.

She glanced up at me, "I want to invite him to dance, can you allow it?"

It turned out that I just danced together. I didn't feel laughed. I turned to look at Xiao Yan, but I really wanted to see what he was dancing ... Just thinking about the scene, I can't help it. But when I touched Xiao Yan's eyes, I still resisted the smile, and said, "I'm sorry, I can't allow it."

"Why?" The girl's eyes were clear and frank.

I looked directly into her eyes and smiled slowly. "The territory of the country must not allow foreigners to set foot in the least, and my husband must not allow anyone to get a finger on it."

The people around applauded, applauded, raised a glass of wine at us, and a tall young man stood up and sang a song I could not understand to the girl. The enthusiasm of the song made her blush ... and my own face Probably not much better than her. Xiao Yan's eyes stared straight at me. His eyes made me almost breathless. He didn't drink too much, but he was dizzy.

The night was getting deeper, and we bid farewell to the enthusiastic herders, and set foot in the direction of returning to the city.

The night sky is far-reaching, the sky is bright, the sound of horseshoes is only in the quiet wilderness, and the gentleness of the night embraces all things.

I lifted my head to let Yefeng blow away the heat on my cheeks, and my tide was still not calm.

"Come here." Xiao Yan stretched his arms around me, and he couldn't help but hold me to his horse and wrapped me in the wind.

I looked up at him, and he looked down at me, his eyes were deep and gentle, "Do you like it here?"

"Like." I looked at him with a smile. "I've never seen such a beautiful place, and I haven't been so happy for a long time."

Xiao Yan smiled deeper, and said softly in my ear, "When the war subsides, I will take you to the Quartet, to see the vastness of the East China Sea, the steepness of the western Sichuan, and the southern Yunnan ... The ultimate. "

After all, the word war cannot be avoided. I leaned against his chest and sighed silently. Throughout the night, none of us mentioned the matter, knowing that the war was imminent, we still tried our best to put aside the troubles of the dispute, even if we were only greedy for half a day.

I stared at me with a smile. "Okay, then, we traveled all over the world, looking for a picturesque place, building a small courtyard, making it at sunrise, living at sunset ..." I whispered in my ear, "I'll build you the most beautiful courtyard in the world. There are you and me alone, and no one can disturb me."

I looked up to the sky, I only felt good at night, this life was quiet, my eyes didn't feel wet.

His hands clenched around my waist suddenly tightened, and his thin lips touched my ears, his breath warmed around his neck, arousing a wonderful softness, as if he had drunk wine. I shuddered slightly, no strength to dodge, and looked up involuntarily, letting his lips fall on my neck.

"Hug me." His voice was low and calm. "No matter what, don't let go."

I opened my eyes arrogantly, and realized that the whole body was scared. Although I was still quiet as usual, there was a chill from Xiao Xiao's body — murderous, which I could not be more familiar with, and Xiao Xiao's body was as murderous as a sword.

Mo Yan from the seat seemed to notice something, slowed down, and raised his ears alertly. The shocking cloud behind him murmured uneasily.

Xiao Yan conscientiously pressed his sword and secretly embraced me tighter.

Mo Yan walked slowly, and the horse's hoof sounded like a step on the heart.

The thick cloud did not know when to cover the sky, the wind gradually wrapped in wetness, and the night sky in May suddenly rained.

We have been approaching the edge of Makino, and the low and high hills have risen and fallen, and we can see the faint lights of the suburban villages, the high and low haystacks along the road, and the shadows passing by in the night. My heart tightened secretly, and I became more and more ominous. It was only in the open field that he looked around unobstructed, even a flying bird could not hide from Xiao Xiao's eyes. However, at the border of Makino, the terrain has changed, and the surrounding low hill haystacks have blocked the sight. It seems that huge beasts lurk in the darkness, and they want to choose people to eat.

A deep thunder rolled across the sky, and the more intense the wind was, the more it was going to rain.

I put my hands around Xiao Yao's waist, and my fingertips touched the engraved beast head with the gold buckle on the leather belt. The coldness of the gold and iron penetrated into my heart and made me feel secure. Mo Yan stopped abruptly, with a short, alert nasal breath in her low hair. I held my breath, only to feel that Xiao Xuan embraced me tighter, and calmly pushed the horse forward.

There were icy raindrops dripping and wet our face, but this rain still came.

On the right front, there are a few turquoise fireflies floating, suddenly scattered.

"Boom!" Xiao Yanran drank, pressing me down on the saddle. I didn't see anything, I just heard a sharp howl, and then I passed my face with a strong wind. Cold sweat all over the body, I knew that at that moment, I had passed away with death.

At the same moment, Mo Yan suddenly made a force and jumped out like a shock, rushing towards the haystack after the fireflies.

The wind screamed, everything flew like electricity in front of his eyes, and Xiao Ye's calm and steady breathing sounded in his ears. His arms embraced me steadily, pressing the sword in one hand, the sword made a dragon's yin, and the chilling cold light suddenly flashed. Open dark night.

Xiao Xie's sword came out, and the sword was shining brightly. Just at this moment, I saw a dark shadow, like a ghost!

In front of me, Xiao Huan ran out of the wind, blocking me completely from the arm bend—in the last glance, I only saw the man in black approaching him, his eyes exposed outside his mask, Mori Han, and the knife in the air. Blade Mi Bi slashed head to head ... Jian Guang suddenly skyrocketed, devouring that knife light, like a wind blowing down, sweeping thousands of troops!

I was completely in the dark before me, and I could not see it for half a minute. There was a hint of hot air on the nose of the nose, and then there was a flash of light on my cheek. At the beginning of the thunder, the sound of the rain suddenly rushed, the inkjet leaping and hissing, the sword wind whistled, and the ears were weird. The strange sound of a sudden rain, sometimes iron and iron clashes, was more like a cricket when the blood splattered, the flesh was broken. The muffled sound of Rift ... After the Battle of He Lan, the sound of this killing is no longer unfamiliar to me. The thick **** gas permeated in this dark night, straight into the nose. I pressed my cheek close to Xiao Yan's chest, and remained motionless, and let that wind to cover me tightly. Across his shirt, I clearly heard his heartbeat sound strong and powerful.

Mo Yan is galloping like a scorching wind, I do n’t know where it will run, but the darkness in front of me has never puzzled me—I have never been so calm and calm, thinking of the firm and warm chest behind me, thinking of meeting him At the same time, even if it is Shura Purgatory in front of me, the blood pool of thousands of feet, I will always go forward.

Surrounded by the killing of golden iron, the **** taste had not yet dissipated, but the sound of wind and rain was more urgent. The rain wet the wind, and gradually infiltrated into my clothes, bringing the wetness immersed in cold ... Through the cold clothes, warmth continued to pass from him, leaning on his chest, the whole body still warm. I looked up, but couldn't open my eyes. The rain swayed the wind and brushed my face, and my eyebrows became wet instantly.

"Don't make a noise." Xiao Yilan's arms around my waist suddenly tightened, and the next moment I was volleyed, he hugged and rolled down the saddle.

We rolled over by the road, just under the soft haystack. Xiao Zheng turned up and took me quickly to avoid the haystack. Mo Yan and Jingyun ignored us as we ran, and ran straight ahead, galloping all the way. My heart was cold all the time, and I only heard the sound of chaotic horseshoes breaking through the water, and came from behind, chasing after two riders.

Xiao Min was motionless, and his left arm never left my waist for a moment, always holding me firmly. The rain ran down the haystack, soaking it through my body, I couldn't help being cold, I just held Xiao Xiao's hand with my breath. He clasped my five fingers backhand, silently conveying the power of comfort.

Waiting for the chasing of the horseshoe to go far, he groaned, "Come with me."

He took my stride and stormed into the wind and rain, rushing into the dark night, the vast sky and the mud splashed at my feet ... I saw the outline of a house looming behind a large haystack and wooden stakes. .

Xiao Yan kicked open the door of the room, and the wind and rain pounced on the room. The eyes were dark, and only the scent of dry grass came on his face.

I hurriedly turned around and covered the door. Although it was a thin wooden door, it could at least temporarily block the storm.

This is an abandoned army horse forage. Xiao Yuan has visited the forage warehouse and vaguely remembers that this humble house was a night-keeping place for the keepers. There were many assassin guests, and we were so weak that Xiao Xun took the initiative to abandon the horse boldly and let Mo Yan startled away the assassins. We hid in the dark and hid here. The rain washed away the footprint marks, and the assassins were unfamiliar with the terrain, and it was difficult to find this hidden place.

Xiao Yan lit the fire box and inspected that the doors and windows had been closed tightly. No fire would be seen outside, so the charcoal remaining in the fire pond was ignited. The northern part of the country is cold, and people usually use fire ponds for heating. There is only one humble wooden table in the room, and hay is scattered around.

I leaned against the wooden table, my body trembled a little, I didn't know if it was cold or afraid. The assassin has been led away for a while, and Xiao Xun fought back several people to sniper, and rushed out from the elaborate killing array. If it weren't for me, he might be able to get out of the siege ... I looked up at him, But he shuddered and saw that he was soaked in wind and still dripping water. The water droplet meandered to the floor with a shocking dark red.

"You are injured!" I rushed up, opened his wind, grabbed his arms in panic, and searched for injuries all over him.

He held my hand, and he still thought about me, "touch something, men and women do not accept."

As soon as I looked up, tears came into my eyes, and I couldn't care about anything. I hurriedly said, "How are you, have you been hurt, are you okay ..." Xiao Yan said nothing, and fixed his eyes on me. I saw him drenched in wind, and the outer robe underneath was wet, stained with blood stains. He couldn't see where the injury was. His hands and feet were soft for a while, and he just didn't let go.

"I'm not hurt." He whispered softly.

I just took a sigh of relief, tears fell, and everything fell into my throat.

"All are assassin's blood, killing eight or nine people, and more than twenty left ..." He thought I didn't believe it, and took off the wind.

I looked at him and couldn't say a word. I didn't know whether it was crying or laughing.

"His face is scared." He sighed, his eyes warm, "Stupid girl, are you afraid I will die?"

The word of death was spoken from his mouth, making me feel tight again, and staring blankly at his face. At this moment, I felt like the sky was falling, life and death, but I must not lose him anyway. Even if I just think about it, I ca n’t bear the pain of my heart-I suddenly opened my arms and hugged him tightly, "If you want to die, you have to die behind me so that I won't be sad for you And suffer from the parting of life and death. "

Xiao Yi was shocked, and for a long time he didn't say a word, only embraced me in his arms, his arms were so tight that I could hardly breathe.

"Okay, a hundred years later, I'll let you take a step." He whispered in my ear with a smile, "Before that, you will accompany me to the old age and become a crane-cracked prince together, even if you lose your teeth, the old Mailong bell, Don't disapprove. "

We leaned against each other sitting beside the fire pond, Xiao Yan took off his blood-stained coat, only wearing a tight-fitting shirt, and the tight skin on his chest was faintly visible. I lowered my eyes and dared not look at him. He leaned over to dial the charcoal in the fire pond, and thought for himself, never realizing my embarrassment.

I coughed and sighed, "What can I do now, can I wait till dawn?"

Xiao Xun smiled, "Before dawn, he had his own soldiers to help."

I glanced at me suddenly, seeing his determination and smiled at me, "We haven't returned all night, Wyenne will be alert and take people out of the city to find. I put Mo Yan back, it knows the way and remembers my breath, I have brought Wyan to find this place. It is close to the suburbs, and they will arrive before dawn. "

I took a long breath, and my heart settled, but I saw that Xiao Yan's face was darkened.

He faintly said, "Our whereabouts are known to the assassins ... in the house, I'm afraid there are spies."

My heart froze and I felt a chill rising from my back. Now I know that the people who Xiao Wei and I were out of town had to be close to the people in the house. If even the people around me were mixed with spies, and No one can be trusted.

"Is it He Lan again ..." I groaned for a moment, frowning, "No, Turks and He Lanzhen are attentive to themselves at this time, where can I go to you?" Xiao Yan raised his lips, but did not half smile. Zhongjing's light is flowing, unfathomable, "You think, who wants to take my life at this time, who can take dozens of assassins into Ningshuo?"

I was leaning over to dial the charcoal, and when I heard that my hand trembled, the iron pliers almost came off.

I don't know if the soaked clothes are too cold on my body, but I shuddered a little, getting cold near my fire pond.

"Is it still cold?" Xiao Huan hugged me from behind, squeezed my soaked sleeves, and said flatly, "This will not work, take off!"

I was panicked, but couldn't break his arms. The wolf howling he had taken off his shirt twice before, still makes me feel bad. At this moment, when I saw him come to unbutton my placket again, he was so annoyed, I'm not cold ... "

He tightened his arms, leaned against my ear, and murmured, "Why are you always afraid of me?"

I choked and suddenly felt dry and dry, and seemed to be burning all over my body, stuttering, "No, I, I didn't ..."

He no longer spoke, hugged me silently, and the warmth of breath ran in my ears.

An ignition star burst out in the fire pond, and it was clear that it felt cold, but at this moment, the blood around him was boiling together.

"Ama." He called me heavily, his voice low and mute, "I have missed you for three years."

His lips fell on my earlobe, pressed lightly against his ear, and kissed him along the neck.

I closed my eyes tightly, dared not move, and even dared not to breathe. My heart beat, and a heart seemed to take my chest.

Before the big wedding, the house dwellers in the palace had taught me about bed-beds. Even long and long ago, I accidentally bumped into my brother-in-law and my aunt ’s maids and secretly cherished things ... Curious, but not completely ignorant.

His thin lips burned on my bare neck skin, causing numbness. I was embraced by him, with no energy at all, as if sinking in the endless warm tide, floating slowly, rising and falling.

His breathing was gradually quick, and his hands around my waist moved to his chest, and he opened my placket, and covered it with a thin layer of silk, warmly covering his palm, very light and soft, as if holding an extremely precious Treasure.

I couldn't help but pant, his voice whispered to his name, and his fingers were entangled with him.

He stopped and turned me around, making me look up into his eyes. I look at him stupidly, his curly hair, his eyebrows, his lips, and my attachment is everywhere. I lifted my hand up to his neck, ran my fingertips lightly over the slightly convex point in his throat, and stroked his thin lips ... his arm suddenly swung me over his arms. My bun was loose, and my hair was spread out, draped like silk satin, covering his arms. He laid me on the soft hay, leaned down and looked at me deeply, his eyes blurred.

My shirt was untied layer by layer, and my virgin body had no final cover.

The charcoal burst in the fire pond with a subtle peeling sound, the fire was warm and mellow, and it was isolated from the cold of the stormy night.

The three-year-old cave house candles were changed from the beautiful bridesmaids in Wangfuzhong to the side of the fire pond in the wooden house. The mother-in-law changed into an assassin's night attack ... only he met me and I met him charming. Maybe we are destined not to be an ordinary couple, destined to go together in the rough seas, or this is our fate, our life.
