Millennium drunk

The sky, the night sky is like washing, and the stars are like a dream.

Xia Ruoqing looked up at the boundless sea of ​​stars above her head, smelling the strong smell of earth and the fragrance of flowers and plants in her nose, the fatigue of the long journey seemed to be swept away at this moment.

Tomorrow, another sunny day.

"Young master." The middle-aged man in silver armor standing behind Xia Ruoqing bent down and cupped his hands, and said to Xia Ruoqing in a deep voice: "The time has come."

"So soon?" Xia Ruoqing glanced at the starry sky reluctantly, then closed her eyes and nodded, raised her right hand high, paused in the air, and then swung it down without hesitation.

The middle-aged man got the order, waved the triangular battle flag in his hand, and shouted: "Let's go!"

Following behind the middle-aged man, groups of soldiers with armor on their heads and a single sword hanging from their waists, led by the man, quietly filed into a small cave in front of them.

Xia Ruoqing lifted the cape and hood and stood on a raised rock.The hunting wind in the night kept blowing the feet of her black robe.

Xia Ruoqing is dressed in men's clothing tonight, her long hair is tied in a bun on the top, fastened with only a jade ring, her soft face is not exposed, the gentle smile that she usually hides is gone, her complexion is as cold as ice, and she looks down at her feet. Indifferent soldiers.

They are dead men raised by the Xia family, unexpectedly they are used here, it's sad and deplorable.

After the last soldier hid in the cave, Xia Ruoqing stepped down from the stone, turned her head and took another look at the silhouette of Mu Mu Mountain hidden in the dark night.

After many years, I can finally see the wild flowers and plants again, and finally see the unobstructed night sky again.

She thought that the heart that had rotted in the Nanzhao harem seemed to be alive again and began to beat again.

Unfortunately, it was only for one night.

The cave was brightly illuminated by the torches in the hands of the soldiers. Xia Ruoqing looked from behind, and the front looked like a wandering fire dragon, crawling in the cave, waiting for an opportunity to devour everything in front, leaving nothing behind.

Standing on the edge of the stone pit, Luo Ran directed his soldiers to pull out the shivering and crying craftsmen one by one, and then pushed them into the pit one by one.

Those craftsmen already understood their consequences when they were sent into this cave, so even if most people were afraid, even if they were unwilling, they couldn't muster the courage to resist when faced with the soldiers with arrows on their bowstrings.

They understand that fighting against soldiers who are proficient in military warfare is tantamount to shaking a tree with a mayfly or a car with a mantis arm.If you die obediently and die, your family will get a very generous 'reward'.

This is the only fate of participating in the construction of royal tombs.

The sharp blade of the soldier deftly slashed across the neck of the craftsman in front of him, hot blood gushed out from his neck, but the craftsman's body was already limp during his breathing, and he was kicked into the stone pit below by the soldier.

Luo Ran put his hands in front of his nose to prevent the strong smell of blood from the bottom of the pit from entering his nose, frowning as he looked at the piled up corpses at the bottom of the pit, his brows were almost knotted.

Although he has also experienced battles on the battlefield, they were all confrontations between enemy troops. Either you die or I die. This kind of simple slaughter made him feel very bad.It's just that the emperor's order cannot be violated, he is just a lieutenant of the imperial guards, and he can only obey orders.

Soon, soon.Looking at the corner of the craftsmen where there were only dozens of people left, Luo Ran comforted himself in this way.

Suddenly hearing the sound of the armor grinding behind him, Luo Ran pulled out the saber from its sheath in an instant, looked back and saw a person coming out of the corner, heaved a sigh of relief, put the saber into the sheath, and said, "Captain Xi, why are you here?" ?”

"This kind of thing needs to be supervised, lest some executors will be soft-hearted and do something in private." Xi Yunhe cupped his hands back and said coldly with no expression on his face.

Luo Ran was taken aback, it was the first time for him to perform this kind of task, Xi Yunhe's qualifications in the imperial guards were much older than him, so according to what Xi Yunhe said, it made sense.

So Luo Ran hurriedly smiled respectfully, pointed to the corner surrounded by the stone pit and the soldiers, and said, "There are only so few people left, it's almost over."

"Okay." Xi Yunhe nodded coldly with his hands behind his back, without any further greetings.

Luo Ran felt slightly displeased, although Xi Yunhe was older among the imperial guards and was only half a rank higher than him in rank, he was putting on too much air.

Unhappy in his heart, Luo Ran stopped talking to Xi Yunhe, turned to the pit again, and supervised the soldiers to carry out their orders.

But it was tea time, there were only seven or eight craftsmen left, Luo Ran just breathed a sigh of relief, ready for people to pack their bags, only to go out and seal the entrance of the cave before returning to the palace, but suddenly felt his left shoulder sink.Luo Ran was surprised to see that it was Xi Yunhe who hugged him on his shoulder in an extremely intimate posture.

Luo Ran didn't understand why, but Xi Yunhe smiled and said, "Brother Luo, I just thought of something important."

"What... What?" The last word was still in his mouth, Luo Ran felt his breath short, his throat was full of hissing, and he couldn't utter a single word.

"I forgot to tell you, you don't have to work so hard to return to your life." Xi Yunhe smiled coldly, continued to hold Luo Ran's body tightly to prevent him from falling, and made a gesture behind his back with the other hand.

But hearing the sound of footsteps, the soldiers hidden behind the wall rushed out from the corner and rushed towards Luo Ran who was standing by the pit.

Because there were not many craftsmen left, most of the soldiers stood around the stone pit doing nothing.It happened suddenly, they were unprepared, and the most marginal group were immediately beheaded by someone who came, and they didn't understand what happened.

Only then did the soldiers in the center react, and they all raised their blades to meet the enemy.All of a sudden, there were swords, lights and swords around the stone pit, and there were bursts of killing sounds.

One Luo Ran's subordinates had been monitoring the craftsmen for several days, and they were already exhausted. The second Xi Yunhe's soldiers were all elites raised by the Xia family with a lot of money. How could ordinary soldiers be able to match?After the incense was burned, countless new souls were added beside the stone pit, and corpses were piled up, countless.

Xi Yunhe checked that there were no more survivors, so he waved his hand, but in a moment Xia Ruoqing showed his figure and came to the side of the pit.

Even though Xia Ruoqing's heart was as hard as a stone, she couldn't help but move after seeing so many corpses.But it was just a movement before he settled down and said: "Go and arrange things properly."

Xi Yunhe commanded the soldiers to push the four-cornered tripod that had been hidden in one corner into the pit, and lit a candle on the wall of the stone pit according to Xia Ruoqing's words, and then looked back at Xia Ruoqing.

"Go out and watch outside." Xia Ruoqing said coldly.

"This..." Xi Yunhe hesitated slightly.There are thousands of corpses in this cave, Xia Ruoqing is a woman, if she is left here alone...

Seeing Xia Ruoqing's expression, Xi Yunhe's back suddenly turned cold, and he bowed and said, "Your order, please hurry up, my lord."

After everyone retreated, the huge cave suddenly became gloomy and cold. Even if there was fire, it seemed that the shadows between the corners could not be penetrated.

Xia Ruoqing turned a blind eye, came to the edge of the stone pit, and jumped down.

The large stone pit was already filled with the corpses of craftsmen and soldiers. Xia Ruoqing walked on the soft skin that was still warm, with an expressionless face, and came to the side of the cauldron.

When the nightmare spell started, Xia Ruoqing could hear a lot of crying and roaring in her ears. Although she couldn't see it, she knew that it was the souls under her feet who were unwilling to die unjustly.

Stepping on the gossip, walking around the cauldron, Xia Ruoqing felt the softness under her feet, she kept spelling spells in her mouth, but her mind was in a trance for a moment.

what is she doing?

Who is she?

She... seemed to have swung the long sword she stole from He Lanqi under the pear tree, and swore to the sky that one day, she would brandish Fang Qiu and point the country.I just don't want this word to reach my father's ears somehow, causing a family law and several months of confinement.

She said... She wanted to wield a halberd on the battlefield, but the kingdoms bowed their heads... But now, what is she doing?

After the spell stopped, Xia Ruoqing's figure was like a butterfly, and the speed of circling the cauldron became faster.

Suddenly go, suddenly stop.

The knife rose and fell, and four slender and soft fingers flicked and fell into the cauldron.

Xia Ruoqing put aside the dagger and clenched her wrist tightly, she didn't feel any pain, she just stared blankly at the green smoke curling up inside the cauldron and said nothing.

Now, what else could she wish for?

In her whole life, she has exhausted all kinds of tricks and owed many people, the most indebted person is He Lanfu.

But I hope that this action will allow He Lanfu to return to the mortal world and return to her original place.

As for Jun Yihuang——

"You once plotted against me, but I have done too much. If I owe you, I will pay you in the next life." Xia Ruoqing looked at the bottomless cave behind the stone pit, and whispered in a voice that only she could hear. road.

When Xi Yunhe saw Xia Ruoqing's missing four fingers and bloody palm, he was really shocked, but he didn't dare to intervene when he saw Xia Ruoqing's eyes.

He was secretly adopted by the Xia family, and he also witnessed the process of Xia Ruoqing's childhood and growth, from the previous arrogance, to the calmness after reaching the age, and to the deepness of the city after entering the palace. Missy.

Now that the Xia clan is on the verge of decline, only Xia Ruoqing is left as the head of the Xia family. The only thing he can do is to fulfill Xia Ruoqing's wish.

Riding the horse and galloping all the way, Xia Ruoqing went out of the mountain overnight to rush back to Duling, the capital city. Xi Yunhe was on duty as a guard, and the arrangements had been made early, she just had to rush back before anyone found her leaving the palace.

Before rushing to the palace gate, Xi Yunhe hesitated again and again, but finally reached out and held Xia Ruoqing's wrist tightly, and said in a low voice: "Sister Xia, let's go, don't go back."

Xia Ruoqing's presence in Nantang Harem is no longer comparable to what it used to be.She went back this time, fearing that she would have no chance to leave again.

"Go? Where?"

"The world is so big, where can't we go? We still have hundreds of brothers, even if we fight to the last one, we will definitely send you out of Nantang."

"What about after sending it out?" Xia Ruoqing said calmly.

"After that?" Xi Yunhe was stunned. Wouldn't it be better to live a normal life in the future than the intrigue in the court?

"I won't leave." Xia Ruoqing's lips curled into a sly smile, Emperor Nanzhao was not dead yet, how could she just leave?With the nightmare technique in her body, she is in the Nantang harem, and one day she will be able to capture the soul of the dog emperor.

Then tear it apart inch by inch, and set up a hellfire formation, teaching him to suffer in it forever, without escape.

Xi Yunhe remained silent, his fingers gradually loosened, letting Xia Ruoqing leave.

But just a moment later, Xi Yunhe remembered the letter he had just received, and rushed to Xia Ruoqing's side again, saying: "One more thing, the new emperor of Beiyan heard that Lan Jieyu died suddenly in Nantang, he was furious, and united with the four soldiers of Beiyan Unable to get rid of armor, he went straight across the Yin Mountains, captured the two cities of Changhui and Chiling, and sent an envoy to send a hundred pieces of brocade, and three hundred cattle and sheep each. He wanted to take Lan Jieyu's body back to Beiyan for burial. His Majesty has already agreed. Now, order me to escort Lan Jieyu's body and Beiyan mission to the outside of Chiling City."

Xia Ruoqing was slightly stunned, although she had expected this, but He Lanqi's military moves were so fast and his methods so tough, which really surprised her.

She also thought that He Lanqi would secure the Northern Yan Emperor's throne and win people's hearts before going to war with Nantang.

In comparison, she... is really inferior.
