The horse stopped outside the archer's range, I don't know whether it was intentional or coincidental. The man on the horse wore a red robe, but not a wide sleeved one. The cuffs were tied tightly. It was not so much a red robe as a red armor. Jiang Li had never seen such a Ji Heng before. He faded the layer of frivolity and confusion. He looked like a natural general. For a moment, Jiang Li thought of the rumors about Ji Minghan. Although it was said that Ji Heng's appearance was like Yu Hongye and not very similar to Ji Minghan, at this moment, Jiang Li saw the shadow of the young general Jin Wu from him.
The same arrogance is extraordinary, as if nothing can hurt him.
Yan Zhili stood in the snow, his black armor color was cold, and his eyes were colder. He said, "Duke Su has great courage."
"Really?" Ji Heng sneered, "this is what I want to tell you. Even my wife dares to take it away. It seems that the prince of the county is not going to die."
"Your wife?" Yan Zhili was irritated by the word, and he said, "I'm afraid you don't have this opportunity to let her be your wife."
These words were very murderous, and Jiang Li couldn't help shouting in the account: "Ji Heng! Don't come here, there are archers lying in ambush on all sides, and they want your life! Don't fall into the trap, leave quickly, Yin Zhili won't kill me, but will kill you!"
Yin Zhili didn't stop Jiang Li from talking. Instead, he looked at Ji Xuan and said with a smile, "you see, Miss Jiang knows the truth. Are you going to come or leave?"
Come on, Ji Hong will die. Leave. In Jiang Li's heart, Ji Hong abandoned her like this. For Ji Hong, neither is a good choice. The young man on the horse smiled, with a mockery in his smile. He said, "Yin Zhili, compared with your father, you are really too indecisive. Even your mother is more decisive than you. If your mother is here, no matter what the price, it will not give me a chance to live."
Yan Zhili's face suddenly sank. His parents were a disgrace to him. He was burdened with a fate imposed on him because of Yin Zhan and the Empress Dowager. He had never been angry for a moment since he knew his background. He shamefully mentioned everything about himself, but Ji Heng said it in front of so many people, no doubt revealing what he was most afraid of in front of everyone.
He hated Ji Heng very much.
Jiang Li wondered, not to mention Yin Zhili's father, what happened to Yin Zhili's mother? Isn't Yin Zhili's biological mother dead, and what hatred does he have with Ji Heng? No one can answer these doubts. Jiang Li is still blocked by the bodyguard with a knife in front of her. She is the best bait. Even if she doesn't have to do anything, Ji Heng will step into the trap obediently.
At the other end, Yan Zhiqing was trying to rush out, and Mrs. Yin grabbed her arm and advised, "Yan Zhiqing, don't go!"
"Mother!" Yan Zhi's eyes were red with anxiety.
Mrs. Yin's eyes were also red, "now your father has gone, and your mother has only one daughter. I know you like Su Guogong, but he is now your brother's enemy. He wants your brother's life, how can he let you go? Besides, what can you do when you go? It's not in vain."
"Just because I can't do anything, I have to do it!" Yan Zhiqing broke away from Mrs. Yin's hand and said, "Mom, you don't understand!"
Mrs. Yin didn't know the past of the Ji family and the Yin family, and she didn't even know about Yin Zhan and the Empress Dowager. Yan Zhiqing didn't tell her these things. She always felt that once she told Mrs. Yin, Mrs. Yin would completely collapse. It would be better to make mistakes as now. Maybe not knowing the truth is a relief for her.
She ran outside the tent and was stopped by soldiers. She couldn't get close, so she could only look at Ji Heng from a distance.
For a moment, Yan Zhiqing couldn't help admiring Jiang Li. She has such a gorgeous fiance, and this ruthless villain in the eyes of the world is willing to take risks for her, regardless of the consequences, to save her in trouble. How can there be such a person in the world?
"Duke Su," said Yin Zhili, "since you are here today, don't go."
Ji Xuan raised her eyebrows: "it depends on whether you can keep me."
"My Yan Family soldiers..."
"You Yan Jiabing in the north of Qingzhou, are now competing with my Jin Wujun." Ji Heng said with a faint smile, "in a few hours, I may not be able to catch up here."
Yan Zhili's face changed: "Jin Wujun?"
The rumored Jin Wujun has not been seen for many years. Since the disappearance of Jin Wu general Ji Minghan, the tiger talisman of Jin Wu army has also disappeared, and the whole court seems to acquiesce in the fact that Jin Wu troops have already been liberated and returned to the field, and there are no more Jin Wu troops in the world. Even Yin Zhan investigated for a long time, but he determined that Jin Wujun would not appear again, so Yin Zhan felt so relieved that he could rest easy mainly by removing Ji Heng. The soldiers and soldiers of the imperial forest army in Yanjing are just nominal and vulnerable, no more resolute than the men they killed from the sea of blood.
If Yin Zhan knew that Jin Wujun was still there, he would not make such an arrangement. He would not rashly choose a way to die with Ji Heng, but make plans again. Now Yin Zhan was dead, but Jin Wujun suddenly appeared, which was no different from a great blow to Yin Zhili. Sure enough, Yan Zhili looked at Ji Heng, his face was surprised and angry: "you deceived him!"
"War is not averse to fraud." Ji Heng smiled faintly, "the stupidest way in the world is to exchange life for life."
He did it on purpose! People said that Duke Su was shrewd and ruthless. As expected, I didn't know it was a rumor. He really played his calculations to the extreme. It was in the confrontation between the red mansions that day that he seemed to put all his eggs in one basket, but in fact he also hid his hand. He has seen so many plays, and his ability to play on the occasion is also unique, fooling everyone. He won't take out the biggest chips first, but lure the enemy deep, and then devour him bit by bit.
Yan Zhili suddenly burst out laughing. He didn't know whether his smile was self mockery or sarcasm. He said, "my father tried his best, but he was defeated by you. It seems that you are also a capable person, enough to be my opponent. Today is your death!" With a wave of his hand, the archer suddenly aimed at Ji Heng.
Even if Jin Wujun held Yan Jiabing hostage, at the moment, there were hundreds of archers and soldiers on Luye, and Ji Heng was only one person, outnumbered, and his fists were difficult to defeat four hands. How did he fight in it, he also took Jiang Li.
Jiang Li was burning with anxiety.
Ji Heng smiled coldly, and only heard Yin Zhili say, "shoot an arrow!" In the sky, he immediately rushed up a dense number of arrows and ran straight to Ji Heng. Ji Heng suddenly leaned over the horse's back and raised a shield from behind. The shield blocked some arrows, and he pulled out his sword around his waist.
From first meeting to acquaintance, and then to intersection, Jiang Li never used that gorgeous fan when she saw Ji Heng kill. It was the first time for her to see Ji Heng using a sword. The sword was suffused with blue light. When it was pulled out inch by inch from the sheath, the chill could be felt from a distance. With a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, he was like a young and brave general, crossing the chaos of arrows and blades in an unstoppable posture, and coming all the way from the high mountains and the sea of fire.
Yan Zhili frowned, as if he didn't expect Ji Heng to be so bold that he rushed straight without regard to arrow rain. On the snow field, the man rode from far to near. At this time, suddenly, an ambush Archer shouted, covered his neck and fell down. Beside him, a ghostly shadow appeared. The shadow moved very fast and soon rushed to other people.
"Dead man! Dead man!" Someone exclaimed.
Yin Zhili said, "did you bring someone else?"
"Not much." Ji Heng was on his horse's back and said lazily, "in those days, all my 72 flying dragon riders were destroyed. Now the total number of flying dragon riders rebuilt is less than half of the past. Fortunately, it's more than enough to deal with you." He sneered, "what's up, young master yin?"
His smile, as if the flying snow in the sky was also vivid, and in his amber eyes, there was only cool thin and ruthless. Those flying dragons appeared and disappeared. They rushed out of nowhere and wiped the archer's neck with a knife. The archers had to concentrate on dealing with Ji Heng, so more and more people fell down. But even in this way, Ji Chen could not defeat so many arrows alone, and some of them hurt him, but he was still unresolved. Until the horse was close to Jiang Li's account, Yan Zhili's face was more condensed, and even from his voice, there was a trace of impatience, and he said, "do it all for me!"
He wants Ji Xuan to die in front of Jiang Li's account, but he can't take Jiang Li away. He wants a lover separated by heaven and man, and Ji Xuan to die in peace!
The arrow was suddenly encrypted, and Ji Heng's figure was almost invisible. People suddenly have the illusion that what is falling in the sky is white snow or black arrow rain. Under such circumstances, Ji Heng was almost impossible to have a secret life. Jiang Li screamed, and Yan Zhiqing finally took advantage of the chaos and rushed over. She said, "brother, please let the Duke Su go!"
"Yan Zhiqing!" Yan Zhili shouted angrily, "get back!"
He never spoke to Yan Zhiqing like this, but Yan Zhiqing didn't care, just looked at Ji He in a panic, "brother, you let him go!"
"Yan Zhiqing, don't forget your surname, even you have to stand on his side!" Yin Zhili said, "you're crazy!"
"You are the one who is crazy!" Yan Zhiqing refused, "do you know what you are doing? You will regret it. If you kill Jiang Li, you will regret it!"
"If she is destined not to belong to me, why don't I kill her? I won't regret it, because I'm different from you!" His tone, completely crazy.
At this moment, Yan Zhili's heart suddenly had a killing intention for Jiang Li. He loved Jiang Li. He loved Jiang Li since he had never met her before and only heard her story. For the first time in his life, he liked and appreciated a girl so much. Unfortunately, she was gentle on the surface, but she didn't have herself at all in her eyes.
No matter what method he used, her heart was as hard as a rock and unshakable. Yin Zhili thought that since he could not stop Jiang Li's feelings for Ji Heng, he would destroy Jiang Li. At least what he can't get, Ji Heng can't get either. At this time, Yin Zhili suddenly found that his bones were indeed flowing with the same blood as empress dowager Yin Zhan. They are equally selfish and ruthless. They would rather let me lose the world than let the world lose me.
Those dark and obscure instincts have always been hidden in his bones. His glory and bright moon, with the world in mind, are actually not worth mentioning in front of reality. When someone is doomed to sacrifice, Yan Zhili will sacrifice others to retain himself at the first time, and he complies with his inner intention. For example, the fate imposed on him. In the final analysis, does he really have no right to choose? Even if Yan Zhan forced him and fate forced him, if Yan Zhili was willing to give up everything, he would not have come to this end.
It's just because he was unwilling in his heart, because he accepted the ending. He knows that taking this road may ruin his reputation, but at the same time, he may be able to get everything, and wait until the world, and get her.
Jiang Li didn't care about Yin Zhili's idea. She just saw the man on the horse getting closer and closer to herself. His three foot sword was cold and bright, as if it could kill everything. He rushed from the vast snowfield enthusiastically, like a fire, getting closer and closer to himself. Jiang Li tried his best to break away from the two soldiers. The next moment, she saw Ji Heng's sword wipe the soldier's neck. He stretched out his hand at Jiang Li from his horse, and the horse was almost breaking into the tent. Jiang Li tried to reach out to him. He held Jiang Li's hand and pulled her to the horse. At the same time, Yan Zhiqing screamed in Jiang Li's ear, "no!"
Then there was Mrs. Yin's scream, "love!"
The horse didn't stop, turned around very quickly, and Jiang Li turned to see that the knife stabbed in Yan Zhili's hand pierced Yan Zhiqing's chest, and he was stunned, and he didn't seem to expect this.
No wonder when Ji Heng rushed over just now, Yan Zhili didn't stop him. He wanted to stab him in the back, but he didn't think that Yan Zhiqing was blocked by Ji Heng.
Jiang Li couldn't help looking back. She was sad. She didn't dare to say that Ji Heng was distracted here, but she couldn't let go of Yan's feelings. Yin Zhiqing's injury was unknown, but she really liked Ji Heng. If she died like this... Jiang Li couldn't say how she felt.
Mrs. Yin wailed and ran quickly. Yan Zhili released his hand and stepped back. Yan Zhiqing's mouth kept spitting blood, and she gasped and said laboriously, "Yan Zhili, you... Let them go... Let yourself go..."
"Why?" Yin Zhili asked numbly.
"I... I don't want him... Injured..." Yan Zhiqing vomited a big mouthful of blood, the ups and downs of her chest gradually stopped, no longer breathing, her eyes were still wide open, but her head tilted aside and did not move.
This beautiful girl, who was like a fire, just lay in the snow, no longer angry and charming. The snowflakes fell down and quickly covered her cheeks, so her body seemed to be cold soon. From birth to death, it was such a moment.
Mrs. Yin's mournful cry echoed in the heaven and earth, and Yan Zhili suddenly laughed. His eyes were cold. He turned around and ordered all the living people to point to Ji Heng's back and said, "kill him!"
And he himself, standing high, took a bow from his hand, put an arrow on the bow, and the arrow was aimed at Ji Heng from a distance. His hand suddenly turned to one side and re aimed at Jiang Li.
He pulled the longbow slowly.
Jiang Li was held by Ji Heng, who sat behind her. The horse ran fast. She could only see the arrows flying around like rain. Those arrows fell into the snow, and the snow seemed to be covered with a layer. Some of the dead men brought by Ji Heng died, and more of them were archers. The corpse was lying in the plain, and the snow under it was gradually dyed red.
This is clearly not a battlefield, but it is even more tragic than the battlefield. The great disparity in strength doomed this war to be a fight at the expense of life. Ji Heng said ridicule, and his posture was so relaxed that he didn't take Yan Zhili to heart at all, but only Jiang Li, who was beside Ji Heng, could clearly perceive that at this moment, he really tried his best to protect her safety.
In fact, he is also uncertain. He is not completely sure that he can be safe, but he is trying not to hurt Jiang Li a little.
At this moment, she suddenly felt that Ji Hong behind her suddenly fell forward, as if something rushed behind him. Jiang Li's heart tightened, and she was about to turn back. Ji Xuan's voice sounded in her ear. His voice was gentle, and now he said with a relieved smile, "don't turn back."
"Ji..." Jiang Li's voice trembled.
"Huh?" He said with a smile, "it's okay, we're out."
His horse crossed the bows and arrows shot by the archers, and the dead men behind him were no longer willing to fight. It was like a surprise attack, killing people, burning food and grass, and then leaving gracefully. Unfortunately, the difference is that the surprise attack is to take advantage of people's unprepared, and they know that there are dead men and traps opposite, but they are still in danger.
How can this be done?
Behind the vast white plain, there is a jungle stained with snow and frost. Ji Heng's horse plunged into it, and it seemed that someone was tracking behind him, and Jiang Li's heart was pounding. She can't say anything. At this time, to distract Ji Heng is to make trouble for him. But at the same moment, she suddenly hated her powerlessness. I regret that even when Xue Zhao learned martial arts, he didn't have to be so passive and was used as a bargaining chip to coerce Ji Heng.
She did nothing good, but made the other party embarrassed.
His brain was suddenly knocked by someone. He seemed to be able to peek into Jiang Li's heart and said with a smile, "don't think about it. You're not sorry for me."
Jiang Li forced out a smile: "have we... Got rid of those people?"
"Not yet." Ji Heng smiled faintly, "Yin Zhili is not as vicious as his father, but he has a brain than Yan Zhan. In order to be safe, he still went inside again. When Wen Ji contacted me, he would be safe."
Jiang Li stopped talking.
At the other end, Yan Zhili looked at the front, and some of those who died did not have time to retreat were shot by the archers, and the rest rushed up and killed them. Some of them walked very fast. They were not war lovers and were not real soldiers, as if they were just sharp weapons for killing. It's also a tough move, with tricky means. He also heard the rumors of the 72 dragon cavalry in the hands of general Jin Wu, but the 72 dragon cavalry was completely destroyed as early as the siege of the Hongshan temple, and Ji Heng actually rebuilt another one. This flying dragon cavalry is not as brave as the one under his father, but it is more vicious and ferocious than that one.
With less than 40 of them, these hundreds of people suffered heavy losses. The ground was strewn with corpses. And he can only helplessly watch Ji Heng take Jiang Li away and disappear into the jungle. Yin Zhanlin estimated everything before he died, but he didn't estimate that Ji Heng had such a terrible horse in his hand, let alone that the Jin Wu army didn't decline and the tiger amulet didn't disappear. Ji Heng secretly held the army for today.
In this game of chess, who is more patient and who is the Yellow sparrow of the blessing Mantis?
Yan Zhili waved and let some people chase him. He also wanted to track him himself, but he was comforted by Yan Zhan's confidant. If he went to chase at this time, he was caught in Ji Heng's trick. Once Yan Zhili had an accident, the Yin soldiers were really headless, and soon became a mass of scattered sand. Not to mention that emperor Hong Xiao sent someone to fight, the Yan soldiers themselves had to fight first.
For the sake of the overall situation, he cannot give up.
Yan Zhili retreated to the side of the curtain, and his eyes fell on the ground. There, there was a little hairpin and jewelry scattered, and a large pool of blood. On the blood, Yan Zhiqing was here and was stabbed into his heart with a knife. He stared at the blood on the ground, and the crazy color in his eyes gradually faded, as if he finally understood what he had done, and staggered back two steps.
Mrs. Yin took Yan Zhiqing's body back to the tent. It was too cold outside, and she was afraid of freezing her daughter. Yin Zhili stood in the tent and didn't have the courage to take a step. He killed his sister. Whether there is a blood relationship between Yan Zhiqing and him or not, it doesn't matter. They grew up in the Yan Family and shared joys and sorrows together... Now, he killed her himself, even if he didn't mean it.
After standing outside the tent for a long time, he finally lifted the curtain and went in.
In the tent, separated by the wind and snow, it didn't seem to be so warm. The stove had long been out, only cold ashes. Yan Zhiqing was lying on the ground, beside her, and Mrs. Yan fell on her, like a broken heart crying faint.
Yan Zhili walked over, and he trembled, "mother."
Mrs. Yin didn't answer him, and Yan Zhili squatted down. Suddenly, his hands trembled, and a scream escaped from his throat. He stretched out his hand and turned Mrs. Yin over from Yan Zhiqing.
Mrs. Yin's face was still with tears, her body was still warm, there was a trace of blood on her neck, the knife fell to the ground, and the new blood had not dried up. Mrs. Yin committed suicide in front of her daughter, so she used the knife that Yan Zhili used to kill Yan Zhiqing.
"No -" Yan Zhili cried desperately.
Mrs. Yin is dead, what else can Mrs. Yin do? For her, her husband died. Even if he had been indifferent to himself in the past, it was her pillar. Until she died, she thought it was her fault, and Yin Zhan ignored her. Now her daughter died miserably in front of her, and she could not kill Yan Zhili, because Yan Zhili was not intentional, and Yan Zhili was the hope of the Yan Family in the future, but she could never accept it, so she chose to commit suicide and expressed her anger and sadness in such a determined manner.
Yin Zhili burst into tears.
He killed his sister by mistake, it was his fault, and now Mrs. Yin committed suicide. Before coming to Yunzhong, he thought he was no different from all other people, but overnight, everything changed. The people around him left one by one, as if the debt he owed in his previous life had arrived at the time of repayment. Looking back, he was the only one left in the Yan family.
He seems to be the only one left in the world.
Ji Heng still has ginger and pear, but what does he have? He has nothing left. He picked up the knife on the ground, and his expression suddenly became dazed. He shakily took the knife and put it on his neck.
As long as it takes a moment, you can be free. What the hell fate, what responsibilities must be fulfilled, all disappear!
Yan Zhili closed his eyes, and the sound of the wind and snow outside seemed like ghosts crying and wolves howling, ready to rush in at any time, and it was like the bewitchment of the devil, bewitching him to fall into the whirlpool of darkness, and he could not see the light forever.
With a "pa", the knife in his hand fell to his feet, and Yan Zhili reopened his eyes.
Different, different.
Since so many sacrifices have been made, it would be too cowardly not to pull back a game. Ji Heng had a soft spot since he had Jiang Li, but he was just the opposite. He lost everything. The love of yin and the death of Mrs. Yin made the last soft spot in his heart disappear. From then on, his heart was as hard as iron, and he became the real Yan family.
Perhaps, this is what Yin Zhan wants to see.
As he wished, Yan Zhili slowly stood up and stopped looking at the two corpses on the ground. His expression gradually became cold and distorted. He will take back everything that belongs to him. Anyway, unless he dies, he will never look back.
……
It was getting dark, and it was difficult to distinguish the way in the field. Jiang Li and Ji Heng stopped in front of a cave.
"Let's have a rest here." Jiang Li whispered, "those people seem to have got rid of the desert in the clouds. Yan Zhili must be unfamiliar with the jungle and dare not go deep easily. Let's take a break and wait for Wen Ji's news here."
For a long time, there was no answer from Ji Heng. Jiang Li looked back and felt Ji Heng's head resting on his shoulder. His hand was still holding his hand tightly, but he was unconscious.
"Ji Hong!" She tightened her heart and couldn't care about anything else. She stopped and pulled Ji Heng's hand open. She wanted to get off the horse to check Ji Heng's situation first, but Ji Heng's hand was tightly clenched. Jiang Li finally broke away from her hand, but Ji Heng fell down from the horse.
Jiang Li was stunned.
On Ji Heng's back, there was a black arrow. The arrow plunged into his back. A little lower, the blood was almost frozen. It didn't enter half, shocking and bloody. Along the way, he didn't say a word. Instead, he responded to her with a smile.
It turned out that it was just strong support.
