As Zhang Da approached, the strong smell of male animals emitted from his body seemed to suddenly open a mechanism deep in Mu Zaohua's mind.
The heavy night, the cold river water, and the evil rough breathing, all of these were blessing the smelly black shadow, making Mu Zaohua feel like she was on the side of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal many years ago.
In my career as a woman, I encountered provocations, abuses, expulsions, and even sudden attacks in the dark out of sexual desire. It was more like being trapped in hell than being trapped in a drug addiction.
But there are always female grasslands that will not succumb to the violent storm. Mu Zaohua is such a grassland.
During the hard days of canal stretch, she was always able to resist, curse, and beat up those men who were at the same bottom as herself at the first opportunity without showing any signs of weakness.
The questioning of "Is it okay to be a beast if you are poor?" was the charcoal that ignited her courage to resist.
This charcoal, at this moment, is just like that moment, bursting out with blazing flames.
The tongue of fire swallowed up the dementia caused by drug addiction and awakened the woman's fighting spirit.
Mu Zaohua pulled out her right hand from the cobblestone, touched the dagger in her arms, and stabbed Zhang Da without any hesitation.
But after all, she was in a drug addiction, and her wrists were shaking uncontrollably. The blade of the blade deviated from the enemy's chest and stabbed into the opponent's shoulder.
Zhang Da did not expect that the prey he was determined to win would still be trapped and fighting. After he screamed, he quickly retreated out of the instinct of self-rescue.
The dagger on his shoulder swung a few times and landed on the stone beach, making a clanging sound.
Zhang Da came back to his senses from the stinging pain and realized that Mu Zaohua was not strong enough and the knife could not penetrate deeply into the flesh.
But my judgment was correct. There must be something evil in this woman, otherwise why wouldn't she want to go home and take medicine?
Zhang Da reluctantly stepped forward and kicked Mu Zaohua away before he could crawl over to snatch the dagger back.
Then, he quickly took off the hemp rope that was used as his belt, jumped into the water, and rode on Mu Zaohua's back. He scolded Mu Zaohua fiercely as if he were taming a fierce horse. He suppressed the opponent's spine with his knees and tried to twist it.
Those two arms that are unwilling to be bound.
Mu Zaohua's sharp curses were only met with Zhang Da's increasingly proud sarcasm: "If Master Zhen shouts louder, it would be better to attract the servants on the way nearby to join us in escorting Master to Sibeile and help him."
The Great Khan will give it another good trial!"
The verbal exchanges and physical scuffles covered up the movement of another dark figure in the nearby grass.
Suddenly, he lowered his head and wanted to bite the woman's neck, and felt another stinging pain on his back.
It was much more violent than Mu Zaohua's attack just a moment ago.
At the same time, a low but angry man's voice sounded.
"brute!"
Xia Wenming pulled out the dagger in anger.
When the second stab was about to be struck, Zhang Da, who had received fighting training like most young men, had already bent backwards and knocked away the enemy, rolled down, and retreated to the grass on his hands and knees.
He was so excited when he turned back from the city gate that he left his sword on the armored mule cart. Mu Zaohua's dagger, which could have been his trophy, now became the weapon of the new enemy.
Zhang Da tried his best to run towards Mu Zaohua's horse, but Xia Wenming, who was tall and long-legged, caught up with him, kicked him down, and swung his dagger to stab him in the chest.
The fighting ability of the two men was far less sophisticated than that of the soldiers of the Eight Banners.
Zhang Da could only squeeze Xia Wenming's wrist with all his strength and said loudly: "Mr.
Yes, I want to..."
Xia Wenming's resistance did not diminish, and he said sternly: "What do you want? Since you are working for Baylor Mansion, you followed Master Ezhen in the middle of the night and beat and kicked her! You want to be like the Han people in Efei City?
,rebellion?”
When Zhang Da heard this, his mind was racing, and he thought that he might as well confess the truth and gamble that the man in front of him was Mu Zaohua's subordinate, but he only wanted to find a better future in Dajin than working for the Ming Dynasty court. So,
He will most likely turn to Si Baile, who can truly give him glory and wealth.
Zhang Dayue said anxiously: "Mr.
She, she must tell the truth. Mr. Xia, you and her are not the same, are you? Let go quickly and follow me to get him to Sibeile. We can both raise the flag and we don’t have to be inferior to horses.
Clothes!"
After Zhang Da finished speaking, through the moonlight, he saw a face close at hand. That face was of the same species and sex, and its ferocious expression seemed to have turned to hesitation.
"Are you telling the truth? Are you really Sibeile's confidant?"
"What did I do to trick you? Now let's tie her up and take her to Sibeile's house. Wouldn't you know it?"
"good."
Xia Wenming said the word "good", and Zhang Da felt that the body pressing against him was obviously lifted up.
Just when he thought he had saved his life and loosened his wrist a little, Xia Wenming suddenly exerted force, broke away from Da Da's resisting right wrist and downwards, with the dagger, he plunged deeply into Da Da's left chest.
…
In the distant forest, crows flew up from time to time, flying over the treetops with a hoarse quacking sound.
The owl nearby was squatting on a branch, overlooking the man and woman under the tree who had just experienced a killing.
Xia Wenming found Mu Zaohua's robe left on the grass and wrapped it around her.
She was still trembling, but the most difficult period of drug addiction was over, and her breathing became more stable.
"Why did you come here?" Mu Zaohua asked weakly.
Xia Wenming glanced at the splayed corpse in the grass and said slowly: "Today at noon, I saw Dege Lei and Yue Tuo having a quarrel in the Yamen. De Ge Lei insisted that Huang Taiji wanted to kill you. One of my thoughts at the time was even more...
Seriously, I want to convince you that we should go back to the Ming Dynasty together. The Jin people are not worthy of us Han people who surrendered. I came to see you in the evening and saw you riding towards the city gate. Wait until I arrive
Near the city gate, I saw Zhang Da talking to the guards. After mentioning that you went to the crossbow field, he left the city again. I felt something was wrong, so I also came out."
"Don't the guards feel something strange at this hour?"
"Erdeni Baksh lives outside the city. Several times after sunset, I would bring wine to drink with him and read him Chinese poems. So today I said I would go find Erdeni.
The guards won't be suspicious."
Bakshi means "doctor" in Manchu. Dr. Erdeni in Xia Wenming's mouth was the civil servant who created Manchu for Nurhachi. He was highly regarded by the old chief and had good relations with the Han pen-tie style of Hetuala.
.
After Xia Wenming, who had a reputation as a scholar, came to Hetuala, Erdeni, who yearned for Han culture, regarded this alien convert as a teacher and did not shy away from friendship with him in public.
After hearing the whole story, Mu Zaohua was silent for a moment before speaking again: "Mr. Xia, do you want to go back to Ming Dynasty because Nurhachi used you to defraud me that day? Do you feel humiliated?"
"Yes, and no," Xia Wenming raised his head, looked at the moon hidden in the clouds, and sighed, "Back in Efeu City, the people in the city committed atrocities against the general, which made me sigh, how can the evildoers know who they are?
They are still Manchus. In addition, the Ming soldiers who died in the battle between Yue Tuan and you were properly buried. I am indeed willing to come to Hetuala with you. But in the past two years, I have seen clearly, from the king of Khan to his size.
Bailes, they don't even have the way of governing the country and the people, or even the way of human relations with the minimum of benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust. Their minds are very simple. They look at people internally, that is, masters and slaves, and conquer externally.
, they are just robbing things and dividing the spoils. Miss Mu, they are really just a group of barbarians. This place is not like a country, it is just a den of beasts. Whether Yue Tuan or Erdeni, the former likes you.
, The latter respect me, it’s useless, they can’t change the Jin man’s mind. Miss Mu, we will become more and more frustrated, let’s go!”
