Thousand Miles of Bright Moonlight

Chapter 88: Drink water

After the avalanche, the wind gradually stopped, and the layers of clouds dispersed, revealing the blue sky, and the mountains stood tall like a huge silver crown.

The figures of Bi Suo and his party are no longer visible.

Yuanjue returned to the pile of strange rocks, and Yaoying, who was afraid of falling asleep, was frozen. She added some dry horse dung to the bonfire, rubbed her hands, looked up at her face, her gaze happened to collide with another staring gaze. superior.

Sultan Gupan sat with his blue eyes down, looking at Yaoying beside him, his eyes staying on her face for a long time.

Although his eyes were clear and light, there was no wave, as if he was just staring at Yaoying at random, but Yuanjue felt that his eyes were a little different in normal times.

The regent shouldn't have such a soft look, he should be decisive and decisive.

Only in this way, these insiders can distinguish the Buddha from the regent.

Fate feels a little lost.

The benevolent and noble Buddha and the regent with **** hands are one person.

In the past, when they were both young, he and Bi Suo often couldn't distinguish between Buddha and Sultan Gu. They were obviously the same person. They just changed their identities. What was the difference?

They are young and energetic, proud, and conceited, and they consider themselves the most loyal to the Buddha in the world.

Later, when they saw the ancient Sultan who was backlashed by the exercises, they immediately regarded them as two people.

They love the Buddha and fear the regent.

When facing the Buddha, they admired and worshipped him.

When facing the regent, they were cautious, their bodies tensed, and they dared not let go of the hilt for a moment.

Over time, they really regarded the Buddha and the regent as two people.

As everyone knows, they are just one person.

As the guards of the Buddha, they are loyal to the Buddha. Seeing that the Buddha endured the pain since childhood, they still could not accept the identity of the regent. Princess Wen Zhao knew nothing about this, but could understand the regent. Trust the regent.

Is it true that Princess Wen Zhao was sent to the Buddha by the Buddha, as in the legend?

The Central Plains and the King's Court are thousands of miles away, and a Han princess can actually live in the King's Court. It is a coincidence and touching.

Will this predecessor end be a good destiny or an evil destiny?

Yuanjue couldn't help thinking wildly.

There was a soft explosion in the campfire.

Yuanjue recovered, looking at Yaoying with brown eyes, opened her mouth, remembering the moment before the avalanche that Yaoying knew that there was no time to escape, and decisively hugged the perseverance and calmness of Sudan’s ancient face, her heart still trembled. Don't know what to say between.

After a long while, he looked at Sultan Gu and yelled dryly: "The King..."

Sultan Gu raised his eyes and glanced at him faintly, without saying a word, with a faintly oppressive vibe on his body.

Yuanjue stretched his back subconsciously, and felt nervous in his heart. This was the gaze of the regent he was familiar with.

He changed his name: "The Regent, his subordinates and General Ashina have seen around. Most of the killers on the mountain were buried by the snow. Only a few escaped. Before General Ashina had time to interrogate them, they took the medicine and killed themselves."

After rescuing Sultan Gu and Yaoying, they checked the dead bodies of the killers and found nothing that could prove their identity. They could only speculate that they were military men from the cocoons and helmets of some people. The two found a large circle to rescue several seriously injured assassins. Just about to interrogate, the few people swallowed medicine and determined themselves.

Sultan Gu listened to him and said, "He is the dead man kept by the various provinces."

Yuanjue thought about it carefully and patted his head, "It's really like a dead man."

The various tribes at the foot of Congling fought against each other, and many defeated warriors became slaves and were raised and recruited by the family and became dead. It is said that aristocratic families often have the means to control the dead. If the dead betray the master, they will be cruelly tortured, making them better than death. Therefore, the dead are very loyal and would rather die than surrender.

Yuanjue then reported a few things. He glanced at Yaoying by the bonfire, her voice lowered a little, and asked, "The Regent, I will first notify Princess Wen Zhao's soldiers and let them come over to pick up the princess?"

Sultan Gu shook his head and said weakly: "It is not safe to send her down the mountain now. Their goal is the entire team. When it gets dark, you send the princess down the mountain."

Yuanjue was stunned, after a little thought, suddenly realized, nodded.

Only a few people know about the King Regent’s mission to Gao Chang. Since the killers behind the scenes are lying in ambush outside the sand city, it means that they have discovered the King Regent’s purpose of leaving the city and know that he is returning to the city in the past few days.

They killed the caravans at the foot of the mountain. In order to cover people's eyes and remove possible insiders, they not only killed the regent, but also attacked all the caravans returning from Gaochang, so that they could not only get rid of them without knowing it. The guard that the king trusts the most, cut off the arm of the king, and at that time can also blame the death of the regent and the guard on the bandit. It is really cruel!

Thinking of this, Yuanjue felt guilty in her heart.

Seeing the corpses on the mountain road, he and Bi Suo thought that the regent was going crazy and murdered. He even made up his mind to fulfill his vow, but didn't know that the regent was seriously injured at that time and was surrounded by layers of killers.

Fortunately, there is no danger. Now the regent is safe and sound. Bi Suo pretends to be him and goes down the mountain. He will definitely take away all the soldiers under the mountain to attract the attention of the killer. He takes the opportunity to find the person behind the scenes and find the real killer.

There may still be people stalking down the mountain. At this time, sending Princess Wen Zhao down the mountain is not only unsafe, but also suspected. It would be bad if it caused the murderer's alertness.

Wait until it gets dark.

Yuanjue sorted out his thoughts a little bit, his eyes flickered, and took a peek at Sultan Gu.

In fact, the best way is to ask Bi Suo to take Princess Wen Zhao away, and let Princess Wen Zhao and him act as bait to lure the real murderer behind the scenes.

But the regent would never allow Bi Suo to do so.

Yuanjue pressed this flash of thought.

At the moment, Princess Wen Zhao had better hide her identity and stay with her soldiers. When they secretly return to the royal city to solve the unruly people in the city, the princess will be safe.

The bonfire burned quietly.

The flames reflected on Yaoying's beautiful face, and her snow-white cheeks seemed to be stained with a faint rouge color.

Sultan Gu leaned forward and pulled away the cloak covering Yaoying's body with his fingers. The movements were gentle, and only a small slit was opened to prevent cold wind from entering. The fingers rolled up her sleeves, and the fingers were on her like fat. Gently press on Hao's wrist.

Her pulse was steady, her palms gradually became warm, and her skin was smooth and warm, not as cold as when she threw on him.

...

When the snow waterfall rushed down, the rumbling noise shook the earth, and Sultan Gu woke up at that time.

Yaoying was the first to react. She could have left him to escape, but she didn't leave him. She was not a martial artist, and she was so weak that she could only drag him with great effort. There was flying snow all over the sky, and the snow under her feet was shaking. She was trembling with anxiety, pinched her fingernails into his shoulders, dragged him hard, and murmured a few Chinese dialects in a hurry. It didn't sound like a gentleman. language.

At that moment, the ancient Sudan was confused, but his heart was very clear.

When the avalanche arrived, the person dragging him was just a teenage girl.

From beginning to end, Yaoying did not let go of him.

In the end, she tried to push him towards Bi Suo so that Bi Suo could take him away in time. Xue Lang arrived in a blink of an eye, and the figures of Bi Suo and Yuan Jue were swallowed by Feixue.

She sighed: "I can't see Brother..."

The land was cracked and the waves roared, Yaoying lowered her head, and without hesitation, she opened her arms to hug Sultan Gu, her weak body standing in front of him.

Her soft arms looped up and pressed against the ancient Sudanese body, with a faint sweet fragrance lingering.

Sultan Gu regained consciousness, fumbled with his hands on the back of her head, put her in his arms, took her to roll, and hid under the boulder.

The snow ridge collapsed, and after the earth overturned, only a piece of ice was left between the sky and the earth.

Sultan Gu Huai held Yaoying who was fainted by the shot of Feixue, and probed her nose.

At that time, her body was cold, and her air was like floating silk, like a handful of first snow in the palm of her hand, and when the sunlight shone, it would melt into melt water.

...

Lightning and dew, all phenomena are impermanent, and the world is the law of birth and death, which will eventually come to death.

Sultan Gu is bearish on life and death.

Yaoying wants to live, but she will save him desperately at the juncture of life and death.

Sultan Gu retracted his finger, closed Yaoying's cloak, and lightly pressed it down.

He was seriously injured, so he took Yaoying's pulse and continued to meditate with his eyes closed.

Yuanjue looked at him, then at Yaoying, his eyes rolled around them, and he took out the dry food that was as hard as a stone from his arms and set it on the fire to bake.

The hard naan gradually exudes a faint aroma of wheat.

Yuanjue raised his eyes from time to time to look at Sultan Gu and Yaoying. I don’t know how long it took. He greeted and said in surprise: "The Regent, Princess Wen Zhao is awake!"

The bonfire was shining on Yaoying's face, her eyebrows were lightly frowned, her eyelashes trembled lightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.

In the eyes are a pair of brown eyes full of joy.

Yuanjue looked at Yaoying, circled her, and said happily, "Princess, do you have a headache? Is there anything uncomfortable on your body?"

Yaoying looked dazed, and she woke up for a while, slowly waking up, remembering the scene before fainting, and tried to move her hands and feet.

Fortunately, she was still conscious of her hands and feet. When the heavy snow rushed down, she thought she was going to be buried in ice and snow.

If one survives, there will be future fortunes.

After Yaoying was terrified, she comforted herself silently, struggling to sit up, her throat was dry and itchy, she coughed a few times, and asked, "Where is General Su?"

Yuanjue was slightly startled.

The first sentence she woke up was actually asking this.

Yuanjue coughed twice, feeling that the answer was neither, nor would it be if he didn't answer. He stretched out a finger and pointed to the side timidly.

Yaoying was dizzy and coughing, rubbing her sore head and looking in the direction of his fingers.

A figure sitting quietly beside him.

Sultan Gu sat cross-legged, without saying a word, looking at her quietly with blue eyes, not knowing how long she watched.

When I changed to other people, I was so scared.

Yaoying was just stunned for a moment, her gaze fell on the wound on the ancient chest of the Sudan, and seeing that the wound had been bandaged, she sighed in relief and smiled, "The general is better?"

Sultan Gu lowered his eyes, hummed, picked up the water pouch and handed it to her.

Yaoying was feeling uncomfortable in her throat. She took the water bag and tried to remove the plug. Her arms were soft and weak. After a few tries, she didn't pull it.

A hand wearing a black holster stretched over, and his fingers pushed the cork away for her.

Yaoying smiled gratefully at Sudan Gu and raised the water bag to drink.

As soon as the water slipped into her throat, she was startled.

The water is hot, not too hot, nor cold. It happens to be the most suitable temperature to moisturize her sore and hoarse throat.

Yaoying slowly swallowed the warm water and ironed all over her body.

Sultan Gu was silent, and when she drank the water, her face recovered a little, and said: "The dispute in the royal court, the princess is involved, and the princess is affected."

Yaoying smiled, and said lightly: "The general is too serious. The Buddha and the general are my life-savers, so how can it be a burden?"

Yuanjue next to her looked at her and nodded inwardly.

Sultan Gu looked away and raised his eyes.

Yuanjue had been waiting for his instructions, and when he saw him coming over, he immediately cheered up.

Sultan Gu bowed his head and took out a silver talisman with a curling cloud pattern from his sleeve.

"Bi Suo acted impatiently and could only be in the bright spot. You follow and inform the city lord that the King Temple Guards will re-recruit the guards and ask them to report the movement of all horses in the past six months. The Chinese army, the right army, the left army, the front The rotation of the five armies of the army and the rear army is to draw up a roster. Remember, don't disturb the generals and clerks in the army."

Yuanjue heard the implication of his words, sweating coldly, Ying, respectfully accepted the silver talisman.

"Subordinates will be cautious."

The regent suspected that the ministers of the court and the generals were colluding with each other, so he went directly to the army and investigated from the city lord whether the five armies had mobilized the army privately, in order to guess who was most suspected.

Although the city lord is not a general in command of the army, after all, he must have paid attention to the movement of soldiers and horses under the control of the garrison, and it is more appropriate to ask them. Not only can they get a truthful report, they will also not be stunned every time. The imperial guards of the Temple of Kings recruited the guards by first letting the city lord issue notices and recommending talents. The generals of the army have long been used to it.

After Sultan Gu gave the order, he took a look at Yaoying.

Yaoying blinked at him, waiting for him to speak.

He and Yuanjue were talking in Sanskrit just now, and she didn't understand it, but from the tone of the conversation between the two people, it could be guessed that the situation was tense, and Yuanjue's brows were frowning enough to be used as a flagpole.

Sultan Gu looked at Yaoying and didn't say anything for a long time, as if he didn't know how to place her.

Yaoying didn't want to cause him trouble, so she asked: "Can I help the regent? If the regent is useful to me, just speak up. I am protected by the Buddha and I should share my worries for the Buddha."

Sultan Gu looked at her, she woke up from her drowsiness, her face was still haggard, her eyes were slightly blue, and her cloaked hands were red with cold.

She was able to be so calm just after waking up, which shows that she often lives such a life of fear and fear.

Sultan Guton paused and said, "When it gets dark, Fate will send the princess down the mountain."

Yaoying was taken aback, and asked, "What about General Su?"

Sudan's ancient brows wrinkled lightly.
