Chapter 66 Despair
"There is an ambush, everyone should be careful!" Yu Wen Wen shouted immediately, regardless of whether it was a false alarm. As soon as he finished speaking, a cavalry rushed over the arch bridge and shouted to give way. The man followed him and saw a team of people in front of him blocking the road, so he fired an arrow. Ranw?enw?????
"Go aside! Don't block the way!"
The arrow was originally shot at a follower, but he avoided it but happened to hit the left eye of pulling the cart and driving the horse. The horse was in pain and neighed suddenly and pulled the cart and rushed forward regardless of the driver's scolding. Yuwen Wen was shocked to follow the horse and followed him, but he was slowed down half a beat.
The previous one had already rushed down the stone arch bridge. Seeing the carriage rushing towards him, he was about to draw his sword. Unexpectedly, a man flashed his hands with a knife and waved his strength to cut off the front legs of the horse. The mount under his crotch fell forward and rushed forward and the rider rushed to the ground.
The rider was about to hit the man, but the other party quickly avoided sideways and then turned around and cut off the horse's legs. With a plop, he hit the ground with his horse.
"Follow me!" Yang Ji shouted. He cut over two riders in succession and didn't care about so many people leading the people around him to rush to the stone arch bridge to defend the enemy. He rushed to the bridge deck and looked up at more than ten cavalry in the south approaching the arch bridge, and dozens of cavalry were chasing behind them.
"Don't leave the thief!" The cavalry shouted loudly when they saw someone on the bridge. Yang Ji immediately knew that the cavalry suspected of pursuing soldiers were Anzhou Army, and the one in front was the mastermind of the mutiny who had disappeared a few days ago or the party gangster.
"Quick, stop the carriage!" Yang Ji asked someone to turn around to block the frightened carriage. It would be easy if the other party didn't attack him. As long as Xiao Jiuniang was transferred and blocked the carriage on the bridge, they would have no way to escape.
The plan was very good but things went against my wishes. The dozen or so riders were running wildly. Seeing the escape road blocked, the horse was so anxious that they were whipping up their horses and whipped them, some of them bent their bows and arrows to shoot at the people blocking the road. Fortunately, Yang Ji and several soldiers were well-trained on weekdays and rolled away, but the road was also out of the way.
The rider running in front rushed to the bridge in an instant and rushed towards the top of the bridge. With a bang, he collided with the carriage that was rushing up from the opposite side. The carriage was heavy and had the advantage when the two collided, but he flew with his horse to the side.
The riders who had already rushed to the bridge saw this and turned to the wilderness on both sides of the bridge, but two riders couldn't help but crashed straight into it, just like they were knocked away by people and horses. The horse and the groom who were pulling the carriage suffered three consecutive impacts and were also bloody and covered. The horse horse fell to the ground and died, and the carriage parked at the top of the bridge lost balance and rolled half of the carriage stretched out of the bridge along the air. Xiao Jiuniang, who was sitting inside, screamed and rolled out.
Just as she was about to fall from the river, she climbed the door frame of the car with one hand. Yuwen Wen had rushed to the edge of the bridge and rolled his saddle and stepped forward to rescue her. At this moment, there was only a loud noise. When everyone heard the sound, they saw a huge white wave whistling upstream of Zixudu on the west side of the stone bridge.
Yuwen Wen was shocked when he saw this. He couldn't figure out why the legendary "water attack" appeared at this time. He thought that Xiao Jiuniang could catch it immediately even if she fell into the river, but now, when the water attack comes, he knows where it will be washed away. Besides, the person who is surrounded by the water and has a good water nature will have life worries, let alone the weak woman in front of him.
"Stand it. I'll save you!" He shouted and rushed up the bridge to pull the other party, and Xiao Jiuniang first looked at the big wave that was about to come before her, and then looked at the young man who was rushing towards him with anxiety expressions.
That was the man who treated him the best in this world besides his uncle. He saved himself in the Pipa Temple and sent someone to help him find him. He asked someone to escort him home to avoid being poisoned by evil thieves. He also took him to the palace to recognize his relatives without saying a word. He saved himself, who had already been hanging, and then tried every means to make himself happy.
So I can't kill him anymore... I have killed many people. I can't kill him anymore...
A smile appeared on her face, and tears came from Xiao Jiuniang's eyes: "General, goodbye."
"Don't let go!" Yuwen Wen saw her smiling with tears and shouting at the top of his lungs. Xiao Jiuniang let go of her hand climbing the carriage as if she hadn't heard it, and swayed and fell like a sad peach blossom.
It's good if you die, you won't harm others anymore...
She suddenly felt that when she looked up, Yu Wenwen, who was already hanging in the air, grabbed her hand tightly, while his other hand climbed tightly on the edge of the bridge.
"I said, why are you so stupid!" Yuwen Wen scolded loudly, not because of the danger that is about to come.
"Why are you so stupid..." Xiao Jiuniang muttered to him blankly, tears slid across her cheeks. The two of them looked at each other, and the whistling waves swallowed them up.
The sudden flood on Zixudu roared across the river and swept everything. The stone arch bridge was instantly destroyed, and Yuwen Wen, who was hanging on it, and Miss Xiao, who was holding his hand, disappeared.
The dozen or so riders who were riding their horses to snatch the bridge to escape had turned their heads and turned to both sides and stopped on the riverside. As a result, when the flood came, some of them were swept away too close to the riverside.
Yang Ji stared at the stone bridge that had been broken into two pieces. He witnessed Yuwen Wen was swept away in order to save people, but even so, he still couldn't accept this fact.
"It's gone? It's gone?" He murmured with a pale face, standing still as if a soulless body.
He was not a person from this era. To be precise, his soul did not belong to this era. Yang Ji was a person in the late Ming Dynasty during his lifetime. He was born in Yizhou, Shandong in the 45th year of Wanli. In the 15th year of Chongzhen, the Qing army broke the city and Yang Ji committed suicide and died for his country. Unexpectedly, he was possessed by a little beggar in the Northern Zhou Dynasty more than a thousand years ago.
Yang Ji lived in a new identity for more than ten years but could not integrate into this era. He could not return to the Ming Dynasty, which was bewildered, nor could he return to the smoke of gunpowder. Looking at the life of a series of historical events, he was as helpless as a lost child. Just when he was about to despair, he met Yuwen Wen, who claimed to be "rebirth of Yuwen Wen", who was the one who had just been swept away by the flood.
Seeing that the other party had a "thousand-year insight" to revive the great Zhouhe Mountains, he didn't care. What he cared about was that the other party had a thousand years of experience as himself. Yang Ji did not have the ambition to rule the world, but if Yuwen Wen could reach that position, his wish would have a chance to come true.
‘It is not my intention to be a marquis, I hope the sea waves will be peaceful.’ The poem by Qi Shaobao of the Ming Dynasty is Yang Ji’s heart. He was unable to save the Ming Dynasty in that life and he wanted to let the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment and no longer suffer from border troubles.
Yuwen Wen has unique insights on military training and extraordinary effectiveness. He has many wonderful ideas and decisions to cut the mess with a quick knife. He has many insights that he even has never heard of, but after hearing it, he feels very reasonable. Yang Ji thinks such a person deserves to be with him.
However, the man carrying his dream disappeared like this, and his dream disappeared like this. So what is the meaning of his life?
"Why...Why..." Yang Ji murmured to himself in despair. A rider who had attempted to escape saw him holding his sword and stood still without a dagger in his hand. Seeing the pursuers approaching him, he rushed up to kill someone and seize the sword to save his life. The pursuers had surrounded them by the river and could only get off the horse and jump into the river to escape.
The man thought that the flood had passed and jumped into the river and then sneaked downstream and could escape with his weapon. He held the dagger and rushed forward and was about to stab someone, but saw a flash of sword light and chopped into two pieces in the waist. He had lost consciousness before seeing the man who had slashed his body with a knife before turning his head and looking at him. The man's eyes were cold and murderous intent boiling.
"Woo!!!" A roar sounded in the wilderness, and Yang Ji, who was crazy, rushed towards the riders. There was no three-combination general under the long sword. The long sword flashed around him like a swimming snake, cutting any thing that dared to stop it into several sections.
Within a moment of blood splattering, ten riders who tried to jump into the river to escape were chopped over by him and his horse, and even the soldiers who followed him on the south bank of the river were almost killed by accident.
A broken arm fell in front of him. Yang Ji looked at a strange bird stabbed on the arm. He heard Yuwen Wen say that this mark means that this person is a member of Ye Xiao.
"Ye Xiao... are you waiting!" He waved his knife to chop his arm into meat sauce. At this point, he probably understood what was going on: these Ye Xiao protected the rebellious masterminds or gangsters who were lurking in the city to avoid searches and fled north today. Someone else was on standby on the way upstream of Zixudu. These people were waiting for the arrows to destroy the dam and destroy the stone bridge so that the pursuers could not cross the river.
Time flees with great accuracy and releases a sound arrow to signal the water to break the road, but happens to meet them and they are blocked by the carriage and are unable to cross the bridge in time. As a result, the embankment has been destroyed and the flood has rushed to destroy the stone bridge, and Yu Wen Wen, who is saving the people, is also swept away.
"Ye Xiao, I will not be a human being if I don't kill you and others!" He whistled to the sky, and his anger in his heart finally recovered some rationality after he was relieved.
"Master, Master of the Pagoda!" A soldier hugged him desperately and shouted, "Go and save the army first!"
"Save people? Yes, save people!" Yang Ji came to his senses and looked around for a moment to run towards a bossless horse. The cavalry who had been chasing behind had already come to the front of him. They had seen the fierce battle on the stone bridge and judged that the few people in front of him had no malice.
"Master Yang, on the bridge just now..." asked the leading general. He recognized the figure under Yuwen Tongjun, but his impression was still at the position of the team leader. He was shocked when the flood roared past the river in front of him. Seeing a carriage parked on the bridge and was washed away, he felt a little worried, worried about some big figure on it.
God, don’t be that Yuwen Tongjun...
"It was Yuwen Tongjun who was washed away by the water. Go and save people!" Yang Ji shouted, then turned over and galloped eastward along the muddy river. The general was stunned and then turned pale when he heard this. Fortunately, the people around him reminded him and came back to his senses. He quickly arranged for people to catch the blocked riders in front of him, and he personally led the people to run eastward in the direction of the flood.
