Chapter 182(1/2)
A few days later, the spy who stayed in Wuchuan came to report that it was the cavalry of Northern Xia and had also investigated the terrain of Wuchuan.
The first war was chosen in Wuchuan, which was actually a very gentleman's behavior.
It is true that Nanxia occupied the high ground and could alleviate the pressure of cavalry charge. However, this place is an open plain, which is very beneficial to Beixia's attack compared to the rugged and uneven mountains that hurt the horse's hoof. If both are offset, no one will suffer any loss.
And Wuchuan is another very important position.
In the battle between North and South and South, North Xia, North Xia advanced the front line layer by layer, and finally stopped in Changyang City and retreated.
And Wuchuan was five miles away from the Beiguan Pass. It is said that if you dig down from the ground of Wuchuan, you can see black bloodstains within ten feet. It was the remains of the blood flowing and ripped on the battle between North and South and South.
No matter what the result is, after the war, the north and south of the Xia and the north will completely tear each other apart. On the battlefield, it is common to win and return with one go, but it is rare to die and live. Therefore, if you fight in Sichuan, you can only win and not defeat.
The army camped in Jubei City.
The yellow sand desert is filled with dust, and at the time of the sunset, it is vast and vast. The 100,000 iron-armored troops in Jubei City are no longer heard of the sound of play.
The ditches that block cavalry outside the city, the trunks with different teeth in the city walls, and the observation decks that can be seen ten miles away from the city, have all been properly trimmed.
The other Zhenyuan and Anning Passes on the north and south borders were all in the state of preparation, and they were ready to prepare for the Northern Xia Iron Cavalry.
The only relaxing thing in the whole city may be Ling Su and Qing Lu.
Lu Zheng of the Qing Dynasty was punished by Ling Su because of his misconduct and did not match the appearance of the disciples of Jiange. He was punished by a bronze jue on his head, with one shoulder and one palm of his hand. The jue was filled with clear water. Within three hours, the clear water could not leak a drop.
Jiange believes that the highest level of sword cultivation is that swords are like humans, and people are like swords. A person's demeanor and body must be cut straight like the sword in his hand to be considered qualified. Lin Shu was practiced by his master when he was a child, but his figure has never been frivolous, so he did not suffer for this, nor did he sprinkle a drop of water. The master looked left and right and was amazed, and never asked for this aspect again.
Based on the master's concern for his disciples, when Lin Shu went out, he saw the scene of Qing Lu's in pain. He wanted to rescue him. When he thought that this was the rule of the Jiange, he did not implement it, so he asked Qing Lu to continue to stand up.
At dusk, the forest stands on the city wall.
A barrier was left around her body, and Xiao Shao walked over, and the black robe was blood-colored, almost like a demon.
Lin Shuying's eyebrows and eyes were still so impeccably beautiful. When his face was expressionless, Gao Hua was as cold as snow on the top of the clouds, and when he was gentle, he was as overwhelmed with flowers in late spring. At this time, because of the dark pupils that were not shining, they were solemn and solemn, and the anger around him almost turned into a physical body.
Lin Shu gently held his hand.
He knew that in places like Beiguan, the city walls were covered with blood and the moat was filled with corpses. Because of the wars in the past, there were too many casualties and injuries, the accumulated resentment reached a certain level, not to mention the spirit of war and killing. Xie Zishe, who has always only loved the saints' classics and not the poems and songs, stood on the wall today, staring at the yellow sand and wilderness, broke his halberds and swords, and chanted the predecessors such as "I came to the battlefield again, but no one came back." It was inevitable that Xiao Shao was affected.
Xiao Shao looked into the distance: "Sometimes I feel that the body of resentment, hating the world and hating people, will sooner or later use killing as a pleasure, and will definitely lose control for a day. I wonder who can kill me at that time to calm the disaster."
"No one can kill you." Lin Shu said.
"Hmm?" Xiao Shao raised his eyebrows: "What should I do?"
Before Lin Shu could speak, he took out an embroidered sack and asked Lin Shu: "Where is yours?"
Lin Shu tilted his head, remembering that the two of them had their hair in Beixia many years ago, and the cut hair was divided into two tips.
He took out his own one.
Xiao Shao took it from him and exchanged his own for him.
Then he took the Lin Shu's tip and put it in close proximity: "Save a thought, I miss you when I am about to lose control."
Lin Shumomo put the one that originally belonged to Xiao Shao as well.
Xiao Shao probably felt that his actions were too light and did not express concern verbally, and said, "Does the Immortal Lord have no worries about me?"
Don't call me the Immortal Lord.
Lin Shu has almost formed a conditioned reflex now, and when he hears the word "Immortal Lord", his mind becomes a little confused.
Recently, Xiao Shao would occasionally call him the Immortal Lord under the bed. According to this person, this is a sign that he always wants to get close to the Immortal Lord.
Sure enough, Xiao Shao stroked his right hand on his side, hooked up a strand of his hair in an unknown way, and put it in his hand to look at it.
His eyes were very heavy, a little unhappy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Lin Shu defended: "I have concerns."
Xiao Shao wrapped the strand of hair around his slender fingers: "I didn't see it."
Lin Shu lowered his eyes, and after a long time, he said, "...but not very worried."
Xiao Shao: “…Hmm?”
"I think..." Lin Shu carefully said: "You won't get out of control."
Xiao Shao chuckled softly: "What do you say?"
"I don't know how to say it." This man's too evil appearance formed some oppression with his overly powerful presence, which made Lin Shu breathless. He turned his eyes away and looked at the flying battle flags on the top of the city of Jubeiguan, feeling a little confused.
After a long time, he said, "I know... the desires of the world are unsatisfactory. Others fight to expand their territory and then to gain the world. But you are not like them."
Xiao Shao tilted his head.
Lin Shu gently touched the back of his hand to soothe the chicken cub at this moment on the edge of the fur.
"I saw the ancient book saying, 'The first person to know that the war is a weapon, and the saints have to use it,'" Lin Shu said slowly, "I think you must know this too."
"You are resentful to heaven and earth, and have an unparalleled cultivation in the world. When you are happy with killing in the battlefield in the future, remember..."
As he said, he turned Xiao Shao's hand around and wrote four words on his palm.
未,未,未.
"I know that Xiao Shao started this battle to make no war in the world from now on. Xiao Shao killed people in this battle to save more people from being killed." Lin Shu said, his throat a little astringent: "If he is confused by resentment, killed by killing, and betrays his original intention, Lin Shu will use his lifelong efforts to find a way to kill him."
Xiao Shao didn't say anything.
After a pause, Lin Shu continued: "Killing him is not because Lin Shu can't tolerate what he does, but... Xiao Shao himself does not want to be such a person."
Speaking of this, he looked up at Xiao Shao: "The reason why he was not worried is that Lin Shu recognized Xiao Shao for many years. This person has decided not to do anything, and he will do everything he wants, without exception."
He and Xiao Shao met their eyes.
Xiao Shao was looking at him, staring straight, and staring attentively.
He felt a little exhausted. The words just now could be said to be the longest sentence he had ever said in his life, and also used all his rhetorical abilities in his life.
His strand of hair was gently lifted up by the strand that Xiao Shao wrapped around his fingers.
Xiao Shao lowered his head and kissed it gently.
Lin Shu stretched out his hand and wanted to touch Xiao Shao's cheek.
The next moment, he was held in his arms by Xiao Shao.
Hold it tightly.
No one spoke.
Lin Shu could feel his heartbeat.
Xiao Shao was taller than him, his arms and chest were strong and powerful, but he was often slightly weakened by the aggression of this person's breath and movements.
This feeling often makes him feel like a vine that is attached to trees - in fact, it is true. Whether it is Xiao Shao or Ling Fengxiao, he is the one who is raised.
But sometimes, he feels that he is the root system of trees that stretches to the ground, and he needs to absorb some necessary nutrients to survive through himself.
For example now.
He clearly realized that Xiao Shao needed him in this way.
His eyes were blurred.
He didn't know why everyone outside didn't understand the real Xiao Shao.
Obviously, this is a very good person to understand.
Even someone who hasn't grown up yet.
He has the best cultivation in the world, the realm of a land god, and the great fortune is within reach, but he is just wondering whether he will lose control, whether he will get lost, and whether he will harm the world.
He had no desires, but wanted to clean up the old mountains and rivers that he had favored, and then return to the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas.
But others want him to achieve success in his future.
Lin Shu stretched out his hand and wrapped it around Xiao Shao's shoulders.
He asked himself.
What about you?
Do you want him to do whatever he wants or to live?
He thought a lot and finally told himself that Xiao Shao would just want it.
There is nothing else.
"I..." He heard Xiao Shao's voice: "Actually I haven't thought so much."
"I know." Lin Shu said: "I haven't thought so much."
Xiao Shao said "yes".
"When two armies fight against each other, they will be considered to be open and honest. If they can win like this, they will be legitimate." Xiao Shao said: "But I think it will take so long... What if I fight against thousands of troops alone."
Lin Shu said: "It's fine if you want."
Xiao Shao laughed, hugged him, and stopped talking.
I don’t know how long I hugged him, but when I parted, Lin Shu looked up at Xiao Shao and saw that he was gentle in his eyes and vaguely returned to his appearance in the Peach Blossom Land.
