Fairy Palace

"Veteran, is there a guest? How good is the business?" The man rolled over and dismissed the horse, and handed the stables in his hand to the veteran.

Lu Changwen, who was drinking tea, looked up. He appeared in front of the man as a handsome boy with a strong eyebrow and facial features. He was dressed in a farmer's short coat, but full of vitality and refreshing.

Lu Changwen saw the man with a Chinese character holding a horsewhip and was tall. Although he was not near, he felt oppressive.

After Lu Changwen drank the tea, he found out a few copper coins, and was ready to buy some dry food with the store in preparation for the road test, but saw that the store was busy greeting the man, leaving himself aside, and he had to sit down, but he came up with the sentence " Snob."

"Trust the general's blessing, be good, be good." The old army responded, took the horse stable, tied it to the fence behind the tea, and the camel sniffed next to it, apparently he didn't like the sudden guest. .

After listening to the question and answer from the shopkeeper, Lu Changwen couldn't help glaring at the man's back, but the man looked like Lu Yanwen and turned his head to look at Lu Changwen.

Seeing that Lu Changwen was angry on his face, he turned his head and chatted with the veteran.

Lu Changwen's face was stiff, and he nodded quickly, then bowed his head, pretending to be drinking tea, but the bowl was empty, quite embarrassed. He hurriedly found a few coins in the urn to stay, and got out of the door. On the side road.

I was about to get up and check out, but I heard the horseshoes on the official road rush, the old army looked sideways, and rushed forward. In the blink of an eye, it was near. After dismounting, two steps into the teapot, sitting opposite the general speak.

The frightened old army also chased after him, waiting to see the appearance of the people, his face dissipated and disappeared instantly, and he went into the back hall to prepare for food, muttering in his mouth, "I thought you would be bad for the general."

"Blind!" Hong Ye, who was sitting opposite the general, suddenly spoke.

"Stew lamb, grilled lamb chops, mutton soup, served with flatbread, general and red leaves are slow to use, hello." The old soldier put down his food and hummed heavily at the red leaves, took out a cigarette from his waist, and sat aside Click it, pull it up.

When the general saw this, he was not upset. He took the bowl and snorted and drank the miscellaneous soup. The red leaves were also polite. He grabbed a lamb's leg and was very happy. In a blink of an eye, nothing was left on the table.

With a snorting noise, the general slammed the bowl on the table and gave the thumbs-up to the old army. The red leaves that had been blushing were flushed and sweating.

"Veteran, after I return to Beijing, help your daughter in an errand in the palace, and your heart is sick." The general said, the veteran army with a slumped face rubbing a cigarette rod, grinning, and his eyes became a smile line.

However, Hongye only scratched the corner of her mouth, and found out twelve gold in her arms. "No, your daughter's dowry, I have no money."

The general patted on the shoulder of the veteran, and also stepped out of the door, leaving the veteran alone to stay in the local area. Although he has been away from the army for many years, the two still treated him as usual, and the veteran's palm slowly tightened. Until the cigarette rod was crunching.

After a long while, I took a deep breath and sat down again. I picked up the cigarette rod and took a few sips without seeing the smoke. I held out my thumb and pressed it, only to find out when the smoke pot was gone.

Get up and fold into the back hall, but there is no interest in pumping, lying at the window looking at the distance, the figure of the two people on the official road has been blurred into two black spots.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the two black spots also disappeared. The old army inserted the cigarette rod back to his waist, turned over and rode on a camel, and ran in the direction that the two left.

It ’s a pity that the heavenly man is not beautiful. The storm is coming, eyes full of yellow sand, covering the sky and the sky, the temperature drops suddenly, and even more annoyingly, the camel actually kneels on the roadside, no longer moving.

But if you have something to do, you ca n’t delay, you have to turn over, abandon the camel, and tie your leggings; looking around, you find two silver needles in your arms, stab the left and right calves, rush into the sand again, and run straight To the wild under the curtain, never stopped.

Waiting for the twilight in the east, I finally saw the two figures in front of me, took out the cigarette rod around my waist, threw it out, and yelled, "Mei Yin, leave my life!" Stabbed out.

When Mei Yin turned around, the red leaf pedal saddle stood up, the soft sword on the waist split the cigarette rod into two, and the sword gas came out against the wind. In a moment, a hundred steps were cut, and the veteran army felt only a pain in the shoulder. The upper body jumped up and made an arc, then fell heavily in front of Mei Yin, Yin Hong a small piece of sand, the lower body fell after a dozen steps, blood stained with yellow sand.

The old army looked at Mei Yin with a smile, but there was blood between his teeth, and his expression looked emaciated. Mei Yin saw relief in his eyes, just like the rest of his life after the battle on the battlefield many years ago.

The scenes of the past twitched in the mind, and finally reunited with the half-length veteran army, but now he is dead!

"Beware ... in the dark! General ... General, Yue'er ... I'll worship ... I will entrust you, the next life ... born ... to fight for you ... again!" Want to hold a fist and salute, but it is beyond power.

"Who asked you to come?" Mei Yin blinked sharply and asked urgently.

The wind and sand raged, and it was buried in the veteran's chest, but the veteran could no longer answer. The red leaf next to him stretched out his hand and looked at the veteran's neck, and said, "Dead."

Even though it is Mei Yin who is used to life and death, it is unavoidable at this moment. If he died on the battlefield, it would be the glory of a soldier. However, the old army has followed him for more than 20 years, but just now he seemed to be trying to die, only to report and trust.

Although Mei Yin has been lingering for many years, she is on the front line and is more sensitive to dangerous things. After seeing Hongye holding the tomb by her hands, she will fix the old soldier's body and carefully organize her appearance. Suspicions in her heart are lingering.

Suddenly, Mei Yin plunged her feet into the sand, her waist bent back hard, and her hind body was like a spring, and she heard only a bang, and a touch of gold shot into the air.

"啾 ——" With a cry, a goshawk flew in mid-air and fled, leaving a few residual feathers, which were rolled by the wind and scattered down. Hongye's eyes were fast and his hands were like sharp arrows. Then handed the **** eagle feathers to Mei Yin.

Mei Yin took the blood feathers, but her eyes were suddenly cold, and Hongye froze, and asked, "Are you found?"

"Captive eagles will always be less vigilant," Mei Yin's words made Hongye's heart stunned.

"I don't know who raised it?" Hongye looked at the grave bag of the old army, as if to himself.

"Perhaps only the old army knew. He didn't say before that he always had his own hardships, maybe his daughter was the reason." Mei Yin turned on her horse, slammed a fist at the swollen sandbag, and whipped away.

Hongye waited for the general to go far before she threw herself on her knees, flew her horse after fluttering her three beatings.

But I saw that the general was half a mile away, carrying a single hand, with a heavy whip, and it seemed to be urgently sent. Hongye was puzzled, and three consecutive whips were pulled down. His legs were pinched between the horse's belly, his horses and four hoofs flew forward, and ran forward. .

But after a sprint, not only did it catch up, it seemed to fall farther, pinning the horsewhip around his waist, turning his fingers into claws, heavy claws on the horse's hips, the horse ate pain, speeded up instantly, and the tea time had been chased On Mayin.

Just about to speak, but heard Mei Yin said, "Go to the village in front and rest your feet."

Hongye knew, and raised his hand again to pat on the mount's wound.

"It's so bad that it hurts your life." Mei Yin whispered to herself, but she didn't point it out, but she was relieved in an instant. She was busy on the battlefield all year round.

The whip immediately followed, and entered the village. The wind and sand have stopped. The houses in the village have smoke rising one after another. The sound of the barking of chickens and dogs came one after another. There was occasional green in the front of the house. posture.

I heard Mei Yinlian say three "good" words, and the red leaves turned around, but I saw a peach blossom in the wall full of scent, a person next to the tree, with good facial features, thin body, and a green cloth gown full of folds. Under the feet is a pair of slippery straw sandals, with calluses on the heels.

"Sir, can you let in for a while to rest?" Mei Yin opened his fist and was very polite.

"The dead is down, the alive is always up, and the door is open, please." The man under the tree turned his head and glanced at them.

When the two entered the courtyard, they walked to the door. They felt like they kicked the door open, and they muttered, "Drink the water by yourself, too lazy to serve you." Push the blue and white teapot on the table in front of Mei Yin. , Turned to look at the peach blossoms in the courtyard, stunned.

Hongye tried to have attacks several times, but was stopped by Mei Yin in the dark. She poured water and drank the furnishings of the house while drinking. The inkwell on the stovetop was very abrupt, and the sight of Hongye also stopped on the inkwell.

"Huh, one is sour and arty" Hongye has a spirit in her heart, and her words are mean.

"Yeah, a poor one, she said the same before, unfortunately ..." Without saying a word, two lines of tears dripped down her cheeks to the table, and she was so heartbroken.

Hongye frowned and didn't look at him. He was not sympathetic, but scornful.

"The place where Dingtianli stands is a man, what kind of body is crying and crying?" Mei Yin frowned suddenly.

"Lu cried if he wanted to cry, laughed if he wanted to laugh, it's all about your fart," after finishing talking, he just crying on the table and crying, and then became mourning, the sound of the roof tiles.

Mei Yin was about to get up and leave, but saw an old man rushing into the room in a panic, shouting "Ding Wen", pulling Lu Ding Wen onto the bed, pulling out the silver needle in his arms, and stabbing him a few times. Lu Dingwen slept in the past.

When I asked below, I learned that the old man was the only Langzhong in the village. He often came over to look at him because he was pitiful.

Although the old man is old, he is very talkative, but when he talks about Lu Dingwen, he sighs.

It turned out that Lu Dingwen didn't do this before. The reason why it is the same as today is that it is his wife who speaks from Ya Ruo.

"As the saying goes, non-my races have different hearts. Even a woman has to defend, but he has to marry that woman. Okay, let's make himself like this. My son hasn't returned yet. "I don't know if I can bear it at a young age." The old man shook his head and sighed, his face showing sympathy.

"Can it be a detailed work?" Mei Yin asked.

"This is not, how can there be a detailed work for the children of life, isn't that losing the wife and killing the soldiers? Besides, he is a poor scholar, and it is not profitable."

"Couldn't it be that this exotic woman is missing now? He's crazy because of acacia?" Hong Ye aside.

As soon as the old man patted his thigh, "Yes, that's right." Mei Yin nodded slightly, and then got up and left.

But when they heard the grumbling outside the house anxiously, "Dingwen, come soon, your mother-in-law found it." The three people in the house were startled.

The old man opened his throat and shouted to dig out the crowd. When he squeezed forward, he saw a stretch of white cloth covering the stretcher, and "Ah" screamed as soon as he opened the corner. The white cloth was lifted open, and the crowd was silent.

After a while, several people rushed out of the inner circle, squatting on the ground and vomiting.

Mei Yin separated the crowd and immediately frowned into a deep Sichuan word. I saw that the back of the corpse was peeled off completely, the tender meat was black, and some places had scabs, but other places were full of maggots, and the corpse stinks. nostril.

Mei Yin was about to reach out and turn the corpse, but she was blocked by the red leaves. She pressed her finger on the wound, and her blood was black.

"Toxic?" Hongye nodded tacitly.

"Are there any outsiders in the village recently?" Mei Yin asked.

When they saw the villagers looking at each other, they finally fixed their eyes on the two, and Hongye's heart was cold, but Mei Yin was mocking at the corner of her mouth and had to turn into the house.
