"Everyone, shut up. This is an order. The other brothers, Brother Yuan, Brother Lu Yi, Chuncao, and the other brothers, you must support Brother Liang and not disobey." Gao Muqing shouted coldly.
"Military advisor, what should we do?" Liang Qi and others looked at Lin Jue and shouted for help.
Lin Jue said quietly: "The decision of the leader of the village is the military order. Don't forget, you all swore an oath to the village rules. If you violate the oath, you will be disloyal to the village and the master of the village."
.”
Everyone looked at each other in astonishment and sighed speechlessly. Under Gao Muqing's questioning, Liang Qi finally nodded and agreed, and the others had no choice but to agree.
Gao Muqing continued: "Secondly, if we die in Bao Meng's hands, you are not allowed to attack in revenge, and you do not need to avenge us. With our current strength, we can defend but not attack. Taking the initiative to attack is tantamount to seeking death. You guys
We must continue to strengthen defenses, build fortifications, and make preparations. If the military advisor and I fail to make this trip, it means that a fierce battle is inevitable. When a fierce battle comes, I hope you will send the people out of the mountains first and let them leave. I know they will go out.
Life is not easy, and you may become a refugee, wandering around. But it is better than dying in the village. And if you can't resist the attack, you can also evacuate Funiu Mountain. The world is so big, there is no place to stay.
, you must not die easily, you must leave some blood for our Guishan Island Village and Luoyan Valley Village. Do you understand?"
Everyone's eyes were red and they nodded in silence.
Gao Muqing also said with red eyes: "That's all, I won't say much else. You are all good brothers of my village. I don't need to explain many things to you. I know you will make better choices."
Liang Qi shouted: "Master of the stronghold, why don't I go with you and the military advisor? If anything happens, the village will be handed over to Brother Yuan. If you want me to stay here and watch you and the military advisor go on adventures, it's okay for me."
people?"
Yuan Lang shouted: "I'm going. I will take my people with the military advisor and the leader of the village to protect him. If Bao Meng dares to do anything wrong, we will give them a life-and-death attack and kill him in the process."
"I'm going, I'm going!" Everyone shouted, and the scene became chaotic again.
Lin Jue shouted in a deep voice: "What are you doing? What are you doing? Are there any rules? Please calm down."
Everyone stopped talking, Lin Jue frowned and said: "Why do you all want to follow us? I tell you, this time only me and the leader of the village are going, and we don't bring anyone with us. None of you can go.
Guard the cottage honestly."
"Ah? How can that be done? How can we not bring human guards?" Liang Qi, Yuan Lang and others shouted hurriedly.
Lin Jue frowned and said: "How many people can we bring to protect us safely? What are we bringing people for? If something happens, how many lives can be spared? Just take the three hundred brothers from the village with us. There are more than a thousand soldiers and horses there.
, can you come back alive if something happens? And the more people we bring with us to protect us, the less courageous we appear. If Bao Meng has evil intentions, he can only kill me and the leader of the village, but he can't kill the others.
Don't even think about lifting a finger. Dazhai and I will teach him what it means to be brave."
"Military advisor, can you tell us, are you really sure of this plan?" Yuan Lang asked.
Lin Jue said coldly: "I've been asked this question many times, and I don't want to answer it again. I'm not just going to die because my brain is hot. Human nature has its weaknesses, and great things can happen if we grasp the weaknesses. It seems that we
He and Bao Meng seem to be sworn enemies. But where interests lie, sworn enemies can also turn into friends. In a word: The situation depends on the time, and everything depends on man-made efforts."
... In the room with flickering candlelight, Lin Jue sat quietly in front of the bamboo table. In front of him stood Lin Hu with a cane and Lu Wu with red eyes. After returning to his residence, Lin Jue said that he would fight against Gao Muqing tomorrow. After telling Lu Wu and Lin Hu about the village, Lu Wu suddenly started to cry. Lin Jue had been comforting her for a long time before she stopped crying. Lin Hu was uncharacteristically biting his lower lip and not breathing.
"Okay, okay, what are you two doing here? I have already explained that this time I am not going to die. Do you think I am stupid? If I am not sure, what will I do? Go back and clean up. Go to bed, it’s so cold.” Lin Jue waved his hand to the two of them.
"But... didn't Young Master also say that Bao Meng might also turn against him? If he turns against him, wouldn't Young Master and Sister Gao be killed?" Lu Wu sniffed.
"Hey, of course there are dangers. I have already told you frankly. If I had known this, I wouldn't have told you clearly. I just don't want to hide it from you. After all, you are all sensible, and I hide many things from you. It's not good. Where are the dangers? People choke to death when eating, people fall to death when walking, and people choke to death when drinking water. If you are afraid of danger, why don't you do anything?" Lin Jue said.
Lin Hu nodded and said: "Uncle is right, am I not an example? I almost died delivering a letter. At first I thought I would freeze to death, then I thought I would be eaten by wolves. Everything is dangerous. Uncle, don't worry , if something happens to you, I will listen to you and accompany Sister Luwu back to Hangzhou. From now on, I will treat Sister Luwu as my mother and treat her with filial piety, and I will definitely not let anyone bully her."
Lu Wu couldn't help laughing but burst into laughter, and cursed: "I am so stupid that I almost died when I sent a letter. How can I still treat the young master like you? If the young master was as stupid as you, he would have died several times ago. Also, you are like this It sounds like the young master will never come back, but let me tell you, after a while you spat a few times and spit out your crow-mouthed words."
Lin Hu hurriedly stretched his neck and blew a few mouthfuls, and shouted: "Good luck and good luck, what a child says. I didn't mean that. Uncle, I'm not cursing you to death."
"You still said that?" Lu Wu said angrily.
Lin Hu said hurriedly: "Okay, I'm such a stupid person, I'd better go back to sleep. Uncle, don't worry, I believe he will succeed immediately."
Lin Hu walked out on a crutch like the wind. Green Dance stomped her feet and scolded her endlessly.
Lin Jue laughed and said softly: "Please spare him, he is very stupid, but he is stronger than you. He did not cry. After breaking his leg this time, Xiaohu is much more stable and seems to have grown up a lot. .”
Lu Wu pouted and whispered, "Aren't I worried about the young master if I cry?"
Lin Jue was moved. He took her hand and hugged her and said, "Lv Wu, you are my sweetheart, don't worry. You must learn to face it calmly. No matter what happens, you must be strong."
Lu Wu nodded slightly, leaned her head on Lin Jue's chest and said, "Sir, I know I can't cry, but I can't help it."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "I understand, you are worried about me. I am the only one in your heart. I know that. You can sleep with me tonight. There is no need to go back to the room."
Lu Wu's face turned red and he said in a daze: "I, I."
Lin Jue kissed her and said, "Don't be afraid, we just hug her and sleep together. I said, when you are one year older next year, I will want you again. Don't be impatient."
Lu Wu's body felt hot and she said in a trembling voice: "I...I, why are you so anxious?...I am not in such a hurry."
Lin Jue chuckled, blew out the candle, and walked towards the bedside with Lu Wu in his arms.
…
The sunshine after the snow shines on the mountains. Looking west from the peak where Luoyan Valley Dazhai is located, a stretch of mountains and valleys stretches into the distance. The side facing the sun is covered with white snow, reflecting the golden light of the morning sun, and the side facing the sun is covered with snow.
One side is deep and dim, with dense pines and cypresses. This scene is both majestic and majestic, yet mysterious and cold, forming a strong visual contrast and impact.
In front of the tall gate of Luoyan Valley Dazhai, I don’t know who leaked the news. When Lin Jue and Gao Muqing walked side by side, worried faces could be seen from the walls of the village, beside the houses, and by the big trees.
Come. They are all here to see me off.
Gao Muqing frowned in displeasure, and Lin Jue also frowned. This matter was originally top secret to prevent the risk of leaking the news. But now it has become known to everyone. It seems that the construction of the cottage is not a day's work, and will be disciplined in the future.
Great efforts must be made, otherwise some people have no sense of confidentiality and responsibility at all. However, under the current circumstances, it is unlikely that the inside information will be spread. After all, the soldiers and civilians in Luoyan Valley Dazhai have no contact with the outside world, and there is no
There is a possibility of being bribed by others.
"Let's all go back and perform our duties. The training that should be done and the work that should be done have delayed the progress. Let me ask you about it." Gao Muqing scolded Liang Qi, Yuan Lang and others who were standing at the door waiting to see them off.
"Don't worry, Master Dazhai, we are just here to see you off, and we will get back to work later," Liang Qida said.
Lin Jue walked past Liang Qi. Liang Qi cupped his hands and said, "Military advisor, take care."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Brother Liang, are you afraid that we won't be able to come back? What kind of storms have we not seen? Will we still fall into this small ditch?"
Liang Qi grinned and said: "Of course I believe in military advisors. If I don't believe in military advisors' abilities, then who should I trust?"
Lin Jue laughed and turned around to go out of the village gate. The group of people walked until they reached the outside of the forest. Only then were they asked by Gao Muqing and Lin Jue to turn back immediately. Lu Wu followed them reluctantly and refused to leave. Lin Jue urged her to go back.
Mountain, but she insisted on sending it to the bottom of the hillside. Seeing this, Gao Muqing smiled, pulled Lu Wu aside and muttered a few words, then took a blue ribbon from her bun and handed it to Lu Wu.
Then he stood still and watched the two of them walk down the hillside.
Lin Jue felt strange and asked Gao Muqing, "What did you say to Lu Wu? Does she listen to you so much?"
Gao Muqing chuckled and said: "It's nothing, I just promised her that I will fight to the death to bring you back safely. She knows my martial arts skills."
Lin Jue chuckled and said, "You will reassure her. Did you bring the ribbon I gave you to Lu Wu?"
"So you saw it. Yes, I gave it to her, and she knew the meaning of that ribbon. I asked her to keep it for me to let her know that we would be back. She knew." Gao Muqing said with a smile.
Lin Jue nodded, smiled and said nothing.
Half an hour later, Lin Jue and Gao Muqing had arrived in the valley on the southwest side of Luoyan Valley. Behind them were the arrow towers on the slopes of Luoyan Valley, and in front of them were the densely forested mountains occupied by the enemy.
When the two appeared in the valley, the people on both sides of the valley, on both sides of the valley, had actually seen clearly. The two walked step by step through the thick snow to the opposite hillside, leaving two lines on the ground.
There were deep footprints. The two of them did not say a word, but their breathing could be heard. The snow under their feet creaked, but otherwise there was no sound in the surrounding areas. Both the enemy and the enemy on the hillside looked at the figures of the two people with bated breaths, their moods
But each is very different.
Lin Jue and Gao Muqing stepped on the knee-deep snow and crossed the center line, approaching the opposite mountain ridge. After entering the bow and arrow range, Lin Jue and Gao Muqing stopped because they spotted a dozen figures appearing on the edge of the opposite hillside.
