The team followed the occasional footsteps, but until dark, they still didn't see a single person.
"Sir, we have already left Pujiang." Wang Xian said while stopping at a mountain col to rest and eat.
"Yes." Zhou Xin nodded and said, "We have been heading east, and we must have entered Zhuji County now." He paused and said, "If we go further, we will encounter Uncle Tang's army."
In such a major event related to the fate of the country, the emperor will certainly not forget his most trusted die-hard general. Anyone in this world may turn to the old master, but Tang Yun and other Jingnan generals will not. They followed Zhu Di in rebellion, absolutely
I won’t let Jianwen-jun go.
That's why Tang Yun sent warships to escort Hu Wei. This time, after receiving a secret order and in the name of guarding against Mingjiao, he personally led a large army to surround Pujiang County. There is no doubt that the purpose of Zhejiang's army being deployed this time is threefold. One is to prevent Lord Jianwen from attacking.
If they slip through the net, the two of them will destroy the Zheng family, and the three of them will destroy the Ming believers who gathered in Pujiang.
Although it cannot be said that Uncle Tang's encirclement is an iron wall, it is indeed very difficult for Jianwen Jun to escape from Pujiang...
The team had been on the road for a day and a half and needed to rest. Zhou Xin ordered them to camp on the spot. The detectives looked for a sheltered place, huddled together, wrapped in blankets, and soon began to snore.
Wang Xian's cotton cloak had been given to Lingxiao a long time ago, and he only had the cotton robe on his body. The winter in Jiangnan is warm, and it will get hot if you wear too much, and the cotton robes are thin. It is not suitable to suddenly encounter this kind of camping after snow.
The worst thing was that he was curled up in a ball with the cold and his teeth were chattering.
Girl Lingxiao, who was still having trouble with him, heard the sound and threw the cotton cloak wrapped around her body to him. She muttered: "You are just trying to show off your abilities." After saying this, she couldn't help shivering and shivering from the cold.
Wang Xian chuckled, lifted up a corner of his cotton-padded cloak, and Lingxiao suddenly slipped into his arms, pressed tightly against his body, and trembled: "Why is it so cold?"
Wang Xian tucked her into a big cloak and made sure it was airtight, then he put his arm around the little girl's shoulders and said, "This is in the mountains, and it just snowed, so of course it's cold." In his eyes, Lingxiao was like a silver bell.
, they are all children, without any distracting thoughts.
Lingxiao did the same thing. She arched hard in his arms until she found a comfortable position. She covered herself completely with her cloak, leaving only her nostrils exposed and gasped: "Sleep, sleep, I didn't get a wink all night yesterday..."
"Well, go to sleep." Wang Xian's body finally warmed up. He leaned his head against the tree trunk and closed his eyes. Just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard sobbing in his arms and Wang Xian yawned.
He rubbed Lingxiao's little head and said, "What's wrong?"
"Xiao Xianzi, do you think my brother will die..." Ling Xiao said with a tearful voice: "As soon as I close my eyes, the sight of my brother covered in blood scares me to death.
"Don't worry, he won't die. Your brother's life is still long. The Lord of Hell won't accept it." Wang Xian comforted him softly. "If you don't believe it, he will wake up when we go back. Then you can ask him if the Lord of Hell won't accept it."
he."
"That's nonsense." Lingxiao naturally didn't believe it, but he still felt the slightest comfort and whispered: "I have been thinking during the day, if my brother has something wrong, should I settle the score with you?"
"Uh..." Wang Xian didn't know how to answer. He wanted to say that this debt cannot be blamed on me, but how could he say such a thing, so he had to stay silent. But he heard Ling Xiao continue: "After much thought, I still have to say
Forget it, I can't lose two brothers at once..."
When Wang Xianchu heard these words, he couldn't help but be moved. People's hearts change people's hearts. Lingxiao really regarded me as his brother... But when he thought about it, he broke into a cold sweat on his forehead. Could it be that this girl was planning to let me pay for Xianyun's life? Damn, I'm still a little girl.
It's so cruel
"Xiao Xianzi, what do you think we are doing?" Lingxiao didn't need him to answer many words, he just wanted to spit something out to him: "It used to be so good in Fuyang, everyone had fun and laughed happily.
Why do you have to fight so hard in this deep mountain and old forest? Is that person really that important?"
"Both the Ming Dynasty and the Emperor are very important." Wang Xian nodded and said, "But it has nothing to do with you or me..."
"Then why do we have to fight so hard?" Lingxiao wanted to cry again. For a girl of thirteen or fourteen, what happened in the past two days was indeed too cruel.
"It's a pity that little people like us are just chess pieces on the chessboard, and others decide how we move." Wang Xian sighed softly: "In the eyes of the big people, in order to get the results they want, our sacrifices are
It’s acceptable, even necessary.”
"How disgusting," Ling Xiao said bitterly, "Do we have to listen to them?"
"Otherwise, what should we do?" Wang Xian sighed: "Most of the time in life, you have to listen to other people's orders."
"Just don't listen." Lingxiao said angrily: "Can they still force us with a knife?"
"Although they won't force us with knives, they often kill people without using knives." Wang Xian sighed softly again: "I don't need to say it, you are a classless Zhima official, they will crush me to death.
, as easy as squeezing an ant to death. Even a real person like your grandfather who is admired by the world would not dare to disobey the imperial edict in the slightest. What's more, the emperor mobilized 300,000 people to overhaul Wudang Mountain, so that Wudang Mountain could replace Longhu Mountain and become the number one in Taoism.
Shan. Just because of this, how can your grandfather Sun Zhenren not be so angry? How can your brother not repay his service wholeheartedly?"
"I hate that they are building so much on Wudang Mountain." Lingxiao said depressedly: "There are people everywhere, everything is in a mess, the deer, the little bears and so on have disappeared. I just couldn't stand it, so I ran down the mountain to find my brother.
Here we come." He paused and said, "I didn't expect that it would be no fun down there. If we were on the mountain, my brother wouldn't be hurt."
"After this time, we must leave this hellish place." Wang Xian said softly and firmly: "I would rather resign than go back to Hangzhou to live a happy life."
"Yeah." Lingxiao nodded heavily and said, "I support you."
Wang Xian couldn't help laughing. What's the use of your support?
"I haven't met Sister Lin yet." Lingxiao's thinking was very fast. She said it sounded like a dreamy girl, but to be honest, she was just an off-kilter girl: "She must be very gentle, very beautiful, and you will like her very much."
"How do you know?" Wang Xian asked strangely.
"When you mention her, the corners of your mouth will curl up." Ling Xiao smiled and said, "If you are not satisfied, the corners of your lips should drop down."
"Ghost spirit." Wang Xian laughed and said: "Speaking of beauty, Sister Lin is not as good as you... when she wears women's clothes and pretends to be a lady. But to me, she is already a toad eating swan meat. I can win her favor.
, I have been content for the rest of my life." In fact, Sister Lin was very kind to him, and she had long wanted to come to Pujiang to be with him. But Wang Xian was in such a situation that he still needed others to protect him. Wouldn't another Sister Lin add to the chaos? So he
Resolutely not allowed, let her continue to stay in Suzhou
"Oh, little Xianzi, it's too early for you to speak," Lingxiao sighed like a young adult: "My mother said that if a man is reliable, even sows can climb trees. If a woman likes the new and never gets tired of the old, she will burn
Very fragrant..."
"Go, go, go." Wang Xian slapped her on the head in shame and scolded: "How old are you, baby? What kind of mess is in your head?"
"If you don't believe me, just wait and see." Lingxiao said confidently: "My brother said that you can't walk when you see the little widow. She is quite lustful."
"Shut up, shut up, shut up." Wang Xian became angry. Is it my fault that I like married women, royal sisters, and mature women? That's a bad habit I developed after reading too many books in my previous life.
"And you are not a toad. I think you are much more pleasing to the eye than Wei Queque..." After saying so many words, Lingxiao became increasingly sleepy and muttered in a low voice: "That guy's concern for people is so fake.
Yours is the real thing..."
Wang Xian couldn't help but be surprised. No wonder Ling Xiao didn't like Wei Wuque so much. Women's intuition is really terrible. But then again, the reason why he really cared about Ling Xiao was just to project the silver bell onto her, and he unconsciously
She just thinks of her as a younger sister. But as time goes by and the relationship grows deeper, it doesn't matter whether there is projection or not...
After thinking wildly for a while, he also fell into a deep sleep. The two of them cuddled together and felt very warm.
Unfortunately, not long after they fell asleep, it was only the fourth watch, so Zhou Xin woke them all up, ate some solid food, and continued tracking.
After walking for a long time, the sky was bright and the beagle was barking towards the top of the mountain in the distance. Lingxiao hurriedly led the dog to find the way up the mountain. After climbing twists and turns for a while, he finally reached the top of the mountain and saw a tree.
On the crooked neck tree, a human-shaped object hangs upside down.
When I got closer, I realized that it was indeed a person...
"Wei Queque," Ling Xiao exclaimed, "Wei Queque is almost frozen into a popsicle."
I saw Wei Wuque hanging upside down on the tree, his eyes closed tightly, and his whole body from head to toe was covered with a layer of white frost.
A policeman checked Wei Wuque's breathing and said, "He's still alive."
"Put it down." Zhou Xin frowned. Could it be that all his previous guesses were wrong? Is this Wei Wuque just a 250? Or is this his escape plan?
The policemen lowered Wei Wuque from the tree, then stripped him naked and rubbed his upper body with snow. Only then did he realize that his body was covered with scars and there was no good skin left. However, these were all old wounds.
It is not caused recently.
What kind of cruel environment did you have to go through to leave so many scars?
After a long time, Wei Wuque finally woke up, but he had no idea what happened in the past two days. He told Zhou Xin that he was knocked unconscious when he was in the sky. When he woke up, he found that he was being carried on the snow.
Later, those people probably thought they were too heavy, so they hung themselves on the tree.
It was obviously an unreliable answer, but Zhou Xin couldn't say anything. After all, what happened in the past two days was too bizarre to be speculated by common sense. After a moment of silence, he asked: "Where did those people go?"
"Tie me up and go east..." Wei Wuque said not sure: "It should be east. I'm so dizzy hanging upside down that I can't see clearly."
