Chapter 12 Blood in the chest and hurt in the heart

Things are changing, and the wind and clouds are changing. When Luocheng, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was preparing for the 100th birthday of the emperor, most people inside and outside the royal court may not have realized that this place within a hundred miles of the surrounding Luocheng was already the only peaceful place in the world in the turbulence of wind and thunder that was about to begin.

When the king's spirit is exhausted and a dynasty reaches its end, chaos in the world is always inevitable. And under such a big background, how many joys, sorrows, separations and separations of heaven and man will arise? Just like, some people can fall into the same state at first sight, chances and chances. And some people, even if their love is deep, will be shallow! Perhaps after a separation, the separation of yin and yang will never be seen again.

After leaving Luocheng, Bai Ye, the thief who set out on the way to return, took the green rhinoceros pearl in order to see his beloved woman as soon as possible, and stayed tirelessly at night, day and night. The cold wind and moon were shrugging for thousands of miles. After most of the half month's itinerary, he rushed back in less than ten days.

Bai Ye's skill of stealing with nothing is an innate talent. However, thieves have a way, and his ambition is to become a thief who robs the rich and helps the poor.

During the past ten years, he stole many wealthy mansions and helped many poor people. His reputation for chivalrousness has spread among the mouths of many people.

In the spring of that year, he came to Shu Kingdom. Once he went to the powerful mansion to steal treasures, he rode his horse and escaped from the capital. Behind him, his swords and swords were shady and his armor pursued the soldiers as if they were tide.

When Bai Ye was panicking, he accidentally entered a Taoyuan. At that time, peaches and plums were everywhere in the sky, and it was a good time for a year. The young woman was combing a soft silk under the tree. The long skirt was moving in the wind, and her beauty was endless.

A beautiful and kind woman named Qiao Mi concealed his whereabouts and helped him escape the pursuit of pursuers. Perhaps it was the first look of his heart, or perhaps it was the tired of wandering for half his life. Looking at the place where peach blossoms bloom in Shu Mountain, he solemnly said to her.

"I will marry you as my wife for the rest of my life!"

Heaven fulfills one's wish, and the beauty of the moon is beautiful from thousands of miles away. Soon after, the thief finally stole Qiao Mi's heart. They spent three years together like many ordinary couples in this world.

Bai Ye concealed his identity. It was his happiest time. He accompanied the woman to eat noodles in the market. The two of them watched Feixue side by side. In order to make her happy, even the pearls stole from the Shu Palace were used as projectiles that shot down the tits...

Just for her to smile like the spring breeze, he could steal the whole world and accompany her to dream.

Later, they finally confirmed their wedding date and could stay together forever. However, God was always jealous of the blessings of the world. Unfortunately, Qiaomi suffered from eye disease. As long as she was in a dark place, her eyes could not see anything clearly, and as time went by, the symptoms became more and more serious.

Bai Ye was very anxious. He asked for medical treatment and tried all kinds of ways, but it was difficult to cure it. Later, by chance, he heard that he could use the precious night pearl produced in the depths of the East China Sea to grind it into the medicine and guide it. Bai Ye made up his mind without any hesitation. No matter what, he would also find the pearl to cure Qiao Mei's eyes.

When spring first came, Bai Ye prepared his luggage and rode a single horse, so he bid farewell to the woman and left. He still remembered that on the day of separation, flowers fell like rain, broken jade everywhere, dyeing his horse's hooves red.

A long time later, Bai Ye once imagined what would happen to them if he had not left Qiao Mi's sister? But every memory would be interrupted by pain. He always couldn't think of the ending...

When he left, the spring was chilly, but when he returned, he was already full of peach blossoms. However, Bai Ye, who was full of hope, got news that surprised him. Just a few days ago, the soldiers of the neighboring Xiqin had just ravaged several counties in the northern part of Shu. He is now stationed under the capital of Shu, forcing the King of Shu to sign a contract under the city.

Bai Ye's face began to turn pale because the town and Taoyuan where he and Qiao Mi lived were at the foot of Shu Mountain, where the Qin army passed!

Bai Ye, who had learned all the exact news, rushed home like crazy. He stayed up all day and night until he saw the familiar mountain that he stopped the horse's hooves.

He was rushing and anxious, and his body felt so hot. However, Bai Ye, who jumped off the horse and rolled forward, felt that it was clearly the cold winter now! His clothes soaked in sweat frozen his body and soul. When the tears in his eyes rolled down, he heard his roar in his ears, like the low howling of a beast!

But no matter how crazy he ran and cried, he could never find any trace of the town in the past. The whole town and the peach forest, the whole town and the peach forest, had turned into ruins. The blazing fire burned the place to flat ground, and there were no survivors. A panicked fugitive who passed by told him that when he was massacred and destroyed by the Qin soldiers, it was late at night... After the crazy rage, the Qin soldiers completely burned down all the evidence of guilt.

Bai Ye dug hard in the place where he lives for a day with his memory. The knife was broken, and he used a dagger. The dagger was broken, and he used his fingers... When the sunset was about to set, he finally found a jade pendant.

This is a good piece of jade that was not burned by the fire. Bai Ye stopped looking for it. He finally shattered his last hope, covered the jade in his chest, and burst into tears. This was the token of love he gave to the delicate woman. His Qiao Mei had always carried it with him and had never taken it off...

Bai Ye slapped the ruins with his palm in pain, with blood stains dyeing red burnt wood. He couldn't imagine how desperate the woman who could not see anything in that boundless night! He didn't dare to imagine what kind of misery she would suffer in front of those violent Qin soldiers like tigers and wolfs...

Bai Ye, who had been sitting in the ruins for a long time, ate all the food he carried with him, wiped his tears, stood up, and began to grind a knife silently. From the setting sun, until the crescent moon rises. When the stars hang over the sky, under the hatred sky, the knife has been sharpened even brighter than the moonlight.

"My sister Qiao, wait. I will cut off General Qin's head tonight... avenge you and all the dead!"

In the face of deep hatred in the sea of ​​blood, what is forbearing is a coward. A heroic man will never care about his life. He will be able to make a quick knife and live up to the young man! He will splash blood and kill his enemies in person, so that he will not leave any regrets.

The capital of Shu Kingdom, not far from Shu Mountain, is a stone city. In comparison, this royal city is far inferior to the four famous cities that are famous all over the world. Even compared with the royal cities of other vassal states, it also seems very simple and shabby.

There is no way to do this. Shu Kingdom is located in a remote place and has scarce resources. In order to survive in this troubled times, most of the income of the treasury is used to equip the army. People's livelihood is difficult, even if Shu King Shi Jian wants to build a good capital and palace, he feels too much.

Shu has always had internal and external troubles, and it is difficult to calm down. In recent years, the monarch and ministers have worked hard to govern and barely lived a peaceful life. They were about to relax. But how could they have imagined that the powerful neighbor Qin suddenly launched a war and, with lightning speed, captured five or six important passes of Shu in just a few days. The army advanced a hundred miles, as if entering a nobody's land. They directly forced themselves to the royal city.

Being neighbors with such a tiger and wolf country, the king and minister of Shu had been mentally prepared to be invaded at any time. In order to maintain the stability of the relationship between the two countries and the border, the King of Shu would send envoys to Qin to pay a large amount of gold, silver, coins, and grains, etc. every year, to compromise to ensure temporary peace. Although he knew that this was just a stopgap solution, he had to do so.

The reason for the Qin State's invasion this time is ridiculous. It is said that a horse on their border was lost, and it is likely that he had come to Shu State. The Qin army asked to enter Shu State to search, but the general of Shu State stationed at the border thought this was just a trivial matter, so he did not pay attention to it.

If the general knew in advance that this would lead to serious consequences, I believe he would have driven all the horses in the city to the opposite side and gave them to the Qin army without hesitation. However, there was no regret medicine in the world. When the general of Shu understood the seriousness of the matter, his head had been cut off and hung on the flagpole outside the city gate.

Even if the general died with his eyes open, he would have died in vain. His death did not get the forgiveness of the Qin people. In order to find a horse, he dispatched an army of 80,000 to enter the neighboring country with General Wang Li as the general. This sounded absurd. However, for the people in the southern part of Shu, this had actually happened, and it was an irreversible and painful disaster.

When the King of Shu and his ministers in the royal city learned the news, after urgent discussion, they sent the Prime Minister to personally stop the Qin army and promised to compensate with generous conditions, but the general of Qin told him that under the order of the destruction of the Qin Dynasty, the army must go to the royal city of Shu and the King of Shu himself to come out in person before negotiating.

Looking at the remnant defeated general who was beaten to death and wounded, and then look at the opponent's powerful tiger and wolf army. The Prime Minister of Shu returned to the royal city dejectedly and reported to King Shi Jian of Shu truthfully. After repeated consideration, when there was no way, the monarch and ministers had to agree with the request of General Qin Wang Li. With humiliation, they left the city to the Qin army camp in the name of rewarding the royal army.

The camp of the 80,000 tiger and wolf army was stationed ten miles away from the royal city. The Qin army was domineering and arrogant. The king and minister of Shu left the city and met with Wang Li, the general who represented the will of the Qin king.
