Chapter 175: Dancing Horses to the South and Red Jade to the North (End Chapter 10)
Wu Ma came and went in a hurry. She only roughly told Li Hongyu that it was Chai Shao who turned into a jackal and went to her camp tonight, but Wu Ma just took advantage of the opportunity to kill Chai Shao when no one was around, and replaced Chai Shao. He just carried out his original plan.
To put it simply, Wu Ma waved his palm and threw out a strange green flame, which actually incinerated Chai Shao's body under the constant intrusion of the rain, leaving not even a trace of ashes. This disobedient husband has since Will disappear from the world, leaving only the bad reputation of abandoning his wife in times of crisis.
Qingxia's dissatisfied and playful humming sounded in Wu Ma's ears: "Use my awakening technique and you won't even say hello to me."
You are dead anyway, Wu Ma replied in his heart.
In this way, the matter is very simple and clear - Chai Shao transformed into a giant jackal and entered Li Hongyu's camp to kidnap his wife. This was witnessed by Chen Yingying and a group of guards.
After leaving the camp, Li Hongyu fought back with all his strength and finally escaped. As for Chai Shao, he fled in fear of crime and went to unknown places. He could not tell where he went, whether it was the ends of the world, the North Pole or the South Pole.
In this way, all the troubles after Wu Ma left were put to an end. Li Hongyu recalled the many strange things that happened when Wu Ma left before, and suddenly realized that the man in front of her had never really wanted to leave from the beginning - he had planned to leave. He had calculated everything and dug a big hole, just waiting for his husband to jump in clumsily. He even gave Chai Shao a hard push behind him.
"Ruby,"
The dancing horse collected the ashes on the ground, and raised his fist towards Li Hongyu: "I am going south this time, good or bad luck is unpredictable, and the time of my return is unknown. You need to remember that Li Erlang is gaining momentum, and it is not your fault that Tang Gong brought peace and prosperity. Don't force yourself to take advantage of opportunities.
In the future, Duke Tang will definitely get rid of the Xue family and his son, and this battle will have to be fought twice. The first time, Erlang went to discipline him, but it was a failure. The second time, we will take action again, and we will take care of Longxi."
Li Hongyu said: "How do you know so clearly about the future?"
Wu Ma said: "Daxing City is isolated and helpless and can only be conquered in more than ten days. There is a man named Li Jing in the city who used to be a county magistrate in Mayi. Before Tang Gong raised troops in Jinyang, this man noticed something strange and planned to escape overnight. When he went to Jiangdu to report, he didn't expect that the world was in chaos and the roads were blocked, so he was stranded in Daxing City.
After Tang Gong conquered Daxing, out of anger, he would arrest this man and behead him. Please be sure to take the initiative to protect him and do everything possible to bring him back. This man's fighting ability is unparalleled in the world, and he will be able to do more in the future. The military god of the Tang Dynasty will be of great benefit to you in fulfilling your ambitions."
Li Hongyu said: "Do you know what my ambition is?"
Wu Ma said: "If you don't want the red light to shine all over the place, why bother staining the battlefield with blood. If you don't want the phoenix to be in the sky, why not sew clothes with bare hands. When I come back from Jiangdu, I will definitely help you."
Li Hongyu stood frozen, the image of the bright moon rising above her head, and the dancing horse swearing to Yuwen Jianxue to help her avenge her hatred came to mind.
The dancing horse snapped his fingers, and the black coyote led two horses out of the forest on one side.
Wu Ma said: "I originally planned to ask Black Coyote to stay and help you, but he didn't trust me alone and insisted on going with him. I'll take it with me to show him what I'm capable of and reassure him. Send him back to help you."
With that said, the two of them got on their horses and headed to the woods to the south.
After walking a few steps, I suddenly heard Li Hongyu shouting from behind: "Master Wulang!"
The dancing horse tugged on the reins and turned around.
Li Hongyu stood pretty on the spot, her eyes widened at first, as if she was about to say something cruel, but her expression softened when she spoke, and she smiled and said: "Wu Langjun, do you know that the Li Hongyu in front of you is the same one who went to the Ruby Pagoda with you at night?
The one who sings and sings every night is completely different."
The dancing horse was slightly startled.
Li Hongyu said: "Do you know that you are so bold these days and your sin is unforgivable. Someone has already recorded it for you."
"..."
"It seems that you don't even know." Li Hongyu nodded, "Humph, there are still many things you don't know, and I couldn't finish them in ten days and ten nights; you have made many mistakes, in the words of Wagang Li Mi.
, Exhausting all the bamboos in Nanshan, the sins of writing are endless. I won’t tell you, but we will settle the general account after you return safely from Jiangdu."
The night is approaching dawn and the rain will stop.
Three figures with their own thoughts, one heading north and two heading south, just left.
…
Not long after Wu Ma went south to Jiangdu, Liu Wenjing secretly visited Li Hongyu and told her that one night before Wu Ma left, she unknowingly placed a letter next to Li Shimin's pillow. There was no word written in the envelope, but there was a red jade pendant painted on it.
.
"Wu Lang-kun, this is too awesome. Isn't he just saying: If I can put the letter next to your head, I can take the head off your neck? Is this what he means?"
Liu Wenjing took out the letter from her arms and handed it to Li Hongyu, "This is a fight to the death with Erlang. I can't stand the bloody fight between these friends. What's more, who is Erlang? No matter how talented Wu Lang is, he can't fight with the future
You...can't fight with Erlang of the Li family?
Hongyu, you and Erlang are siblings, and you and Wu Ma are good friends, why don't you be the middle man, talk things out, and turn the hostility into friendship."
Li Hongyu said: "You mean, if Erlang digs into my corner and steals my generals, there is no need to find a middle man to talk about it."
"Oh, you are a girl. What's the point of fighting and killing? Even if you have made great achievements, I can't grant you the title of king and general. After all, you have defeated Guanzhong and welcomed Duke Tang in. It is considered a great achievement.
How wonderful it would be to enjoy peace and happiness in the future?"
Li Hongyu said: "How did you know that I am willing to do this?"
That night, Liu Wenjing failed to convince Li Hongyu.
Li Hongyu put away the letter that was placed next to Li Erlang's pillow, and gently touched the red jade pendant painted with Chai Shao's blood with her hand. It felt sweet to the touch.
From the day he saw that letter, Li Shimin never visited any of Li Hongyu's subordinates again, thus preserving Li Hongyu's remaining ten thousand people.
After Daxing City was captured by Li Yuan, Li Hongyu spoke up and rescued Li Jing, and took the future general of the Tang Dynasty with him, with the clear and firm oath of the dancing horse echoing in his ears, along the trajectory that history should have followed.
We headed east towards what was then Weize Pass and would later be guarded by Niangzi Pass.
