Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

"唵啷啷啷-"

The sound of weapons clashing was still heard.

For a time, thunderous blows continued to sound halfway up the Beimang Mountain.

Guan Xing tried his best to move quickly here, while Cao Ying protected Ma Jun tightly, remaining unchanged in the face of all changes, as immovable as a mountain.

"You can only use it..."

As Guan Xing whispered again, he finally threw out the "killing move" hidden in his waist, which was also his last trump card.

It’s a hidden weapon——

It is a gleaming cylinder made of gold plating, with two hinges on it. When the hinge is pressed, the hidden weapon in the cylinder will fly out.

It was one of the five hidden weapons designed by Guan Lin and made by Huang Chengyan. The famous one is also the most lethal and destructive "Peacock Feather Arrow"——

Having said that, there are more than 360 types of hidden weapons in China, but the most successful and terrifying one is the "Peacock Feather".

The moment when Guan Xing pulled out the peacock feather and pressed the key.

A crossbow bolt quickly shot out from the gold-plated cylinder and flew towards the location of Cao Ying and Ma Jun——

"Another hidden weapon?"

Cao Ying didn't pay too much attention to this "hidden weapon"...

In fact, she would never have thought it was a "Peacock Feather Arrow"...

He didn't know what the so-called "Peacock Feather Arrow" was, and it was even less possible to link the crossbow-like weapon in front of him with the murder weapon that successfully assassinated Cao Chun.

She swung her sword as usual to block.

But I never thought that just after the "crossbow arrow" from the golden cylinder was fired for a period of time, it suddenly bloomed out of thin air, as beautiful as a peacock opening its tail, brilliant and brilliant.

That dazzling light seemed to illuminate the entire Beiman Mountain night in an instant.

Even Cao Ying was stunned by this amazing creature...

Each feather seems to have been carefully carved. They dance in the air like a real peacock spreading its wings, beautiful and deadly.

As it approached, a deep chill spread...

Suddenly, the blooming "peacock's tail" suddenly revealed its fierce side, and hundreds or thousands of silver needles bloomed from the brilliant feathers at the same time.

No...not blooming, but bursting...

It’s a life-threatening explosion—

Carrying the force of thunder, each peacock feather arrow... was shot out fiercely, penetrating the enemy's defense line.

In an instant, flesh and blood flew everywhere, screams continued, and the smell of blood filled the air.

The two craftsmen who were approaching... their bodies had been pierced by these arrows.

Their standing bodies... were crumbling under the impact of the peacock feathers, and finally fell down weakly, with panic and unwillingness still on their faces.

——Peacock Feather Arrow!

Its beauty and lethality are perfectly displayed at this moment.

More arrows shot towards Cao Ying and towards the position of Ma Jun, who was in a coma.

——‘Oh my God! 』

Even Cao Ying was shocked at the power and density of the hidden weapon in front of him. It was so dense that it was like pear blossoms in a rainstorm, like locusts crossing the border...

She even realized...

Enemy... This young enemy is no joke this time. This must be his trump card and killer move!

Of course, none of this matters anymore...

The important thing is that even if Cao Ying has always been confident, she cannot think that the sword in her hand... is enough to block this dense rain of arrows.

——"Is it going to... be over?" 』

She murmured this sentence in her heart, and suddenly, she thought of something.

It was an ordinary night, and Weng Weng Cao Cao patiently explained the art of war to her as before.

But Wengweng suddenly fell into hesitation at the last moment. After this long hesitation, he suddenly said, "Baby, grandpa has arranged a marriage for you!"

Cao Ying naturally retorted, "Grandpa, I won't marry... I want to be like my grandfather, like my deceased father, and be a hero of the Wei Dynasty, a general commanding thousands of troops... to fight decisively on the battlefield, to make great achievements -"

Yes, since Cao Cao killed the Three Sages with one shot.

After Cao Ang died in Wancheng, Cao Ying regarded her as the incarnation of his father, and wanted to replace his father to realize Weng Weng's lofty ideals and fulfill his father's unfinished business.

She never thought about getting married...

But in the end, Cao Cao persuaded her, "Baby... marrying this man is better than being a general commanding thousands of troops. When the Wei Dynasty is in crisis, marrying this man... is even better than a decisive battle on the battlefield. You He is already making contributions to the Wei Dynasty, and he is still the biggest and most dazzling one——"

It was these words that made Cao Ying silent and finally accepted the marriage.

later…

Ma Jun, this stupid guy who only focuses on craftsmanship.

Cao Ying was surprised to find that his persistence was actually a bit charming!

Since Cao Ying married him, the flying ball that has troubled the Wei Dynasty for a long time has been successfully imitated, and a series of imitations of Jingzhou's new ordnance, such as the Liannu and the Pi Zhangnu, are also being planned...

He indeed brought great hope to the Wei Dynasty, to Cao Cao, and to all the soldiers of the Wei Dynasty... unlimited hope!

Even more often, Cao Ying felt that Weng Weng was right, marrying this person was far better than a decisive battle on the battlefield!

From that time on, Cao Ying valued Ma Jun's safety more than his own life...

Because, Ma Jun's safety has never been as simple as his life and death, he carries the hope of Wei!

Scenes from the past flashed rapidly in Cao Ying's eyes.

Weng Weng Cao Cao’s words——

Father Cao Ang’s will——

Husband Ma Jun’s stupidity and persistence——

Each one turned into a picture, passing through her eyes.

At the same time, she could also feel the fierceness and despair brought by the countless "feather arrows" thrown at her. It was a smell that was infinitely close to death.

——"If you can't stop it, are you going to...die?" 』

——"I, Cao Ying, would not regret my death, but he..."

Cao Ying finally turned her eyes to the unconscious Ma Jun. In the electric light and flint, her thoughts were whirling. In the end...she clenched her hands hard and gritted her teeth tightly, as if she had made some kind of move. Decide.

Maybe... on the night of Zhang Xiu's rebellion in Wancheng, when his father Cao Ang gave his war horse to Weng Weng Cao Cao, he had made the same decision as Cao Ying before.

——"If only one person can live, then...it is you, my Prince Consort, my...husband..."

Thinking of this, facing the flying arrows, Cao Ying, who was originally holding a sword to block, immediately abandoned the sword. She turned around and hugged Ma Jun completely in her arms, using her body and the armor on her body. Protect Ma Jun to death.

——"Goodbye...my Prince Consort..."

Cao Ying just chanted these words in his heart...

"唵啷啷-"

First there was the sound of the "feather arrows" colliding with the armor, and then... with more and more such sounds, the arrows with fire light... still penetrated the armor, and inserted into Cao Ying's body one by one. …

A handful of blood surged from Cao Ying's chest, staining the moonlight red.

She lay on the ground and suddenly felt that all the strength in her body was quickly withdrawn from her body.

What makes her happy is...

The sharp arrow almost pierced her back, but it was blocked by her bones and the armor on her chest, and did not hurt Ma Jun at all.

"puff--"

Countless blood gushes out from behind, and some blood spurts out from Cao Ying's mouth. All the scarlet blood splashes onto Ma Jun's cheek...

I don't know if it was the hot, hot blood or my wife's farewell.

Ma Jun suddenly woke up from his coma, and what he saw when he opened his eyes was his wife who seemed to be soaked in blood, who seemed to be feeling despair, and who seemed to be saying goodbye to him.

"Husband...Mrs....Mrs.——"

Ma Jun didn't know what happened. What he could see was that his wife Cao Ying's face and body were covered with blood. The originally cold and pure cheeks were now... completely soaked in blood, like a Bloody people.

She looked extremely weak, but her throat was still rolling, as if... she wanted to say something.

"Madam, madam, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"

Ma Jun tried hard to pick up his wife, but he found that she was too heavy, or... it was the countless feathers that penetrated her body, making her whole body heavy and unable to be picked up.

The white armor has been dyed red with blood...

Ma Jun only felt that all this was like a dream.

"De... Deheng——"

A voice as thin as a gossamer came from Cao Ying's mouth, like a final farewell...

"Madam, madam... you... what are you going to say?" Ma Jun had already realized that his wife had been pierced by thousands of arrows.

At this time, Guan Xing also noticed that the fatal arrow failed to kill Ma Jun. It was Cao Ying who used his body as a shield to block everything for Ma Jun——

This scene is so shocking!

But Guan Xing didn't care whether he was shocked or not. What he wanted to do... was to kill Ma Jun, in order to make a meritorious deed, and to prove to his fourth brother that his choice to save him was not wrong -

With this in mind, he did not dare to hesitate for a moment, and immediately drew out his sword. The steel sword was raised high against the shadow of the moon, and the light from the blade illuminated the dark night.

At this moment, two shrill screams flew from the sky, one hit Guan Xing's arm, and the other knocked his saber away.

But they saw two young generals rushing into the battlefield halfway up the mountain with guns and horses.

"Captain Prince Consort? Princess..."

One of them shouted, and the other was already standing in front of them with a gun.

"Zizang, Zijiang... don't leave the thief——"

Loud shouts like loud bells came from the mountain road...

At the same time, there was the sound of horse hoofbeats and the rapid marching footsteps.

It was Xiahou Dun, who arrived with his support team at the most critical moment.

The ones who just blocked Guan Xing's attack were his two sons - Xiahou Zizang, Xiahou Zijiang...

If we follow the original trajectory of history, these two men, as "brother-in-laws", hooked up with their sister-in-law Princess Qinghe to frame their brother Xia Houmao.

Of course, Xia Houmao is dead now, this is not important...

The important thing is that these two young generals are also the sons of Xiahou Dun, and they are also good at martial arts.

"Oops...still can't..."

Guan Xing failed with one attack and was hit by Mingdi on his arm. Facing more and more enemy reinforcements, he immediately did not dare to risk any more attacks. He quickly turned around and headed towards the side of the mountainside, and quickly jumped down.

Xiahou Zizang and Xiahou Zijiang hurriedly chased after them, only to see...the place where they jumped was a river...

Northerners are not good at water, so even if they jump to chase after them, they may not be able to capture the enemy in the water.

"This thief is much better off..."

"pity…"

The two young generals from the Xiahou family couldn't help but frown, looking full of regret.

Under the guidance of his personal guards, Xiahou Dun quickly approached Ma Jun and Cao Ying.

Ma Jun stretched out his hand to stop Xiahou Dun. He staggered and knelt beside Cao Ying. At this moment, Cao Ying's face was pale and his body was trembling slightly. Blood kept pouring out from the countless wounds... turning the surrounding stone steps into stone. Large tracts of red are particularly dazzling under the reflection of torches.

Ma Jun didn't say anything. He put his arm around Cao Ying's shoulders and tried his best to gently place her head on his knees.

"Medical officer...Medical officer...get the hemostatic medicine quickly..."

After hearing the reminder from his close soldiers, Xiahou Dun quickly turned around and shouted.

"General, she...she is afraid that she may not be able to survive..."

Ma Jun said these sad and heartbreaking words, his lonely arm hanging in the bloody night.

Xiahou Dun sighed and took back the hemostatic medicine handed over by the medical officer in his hand. However, after thinking about it, he still handed the medicine into Ma Jun's hand.

Ma Jun looked at the medicine. He bit open the bottle and sprinkled the powder on Cao Ying's wound. A gust of night wind blew by, and the yellow powder floated away.

At this time...

A weak coughing sound resounded, and Cao Ying opened his eyes with difficulty, as if he was having a flashback, and looked at Ma Jun lifelessly.

"Madam...you..."

Ma Jun tore off a piece of clothing and wrapped it around the wound haphazardly.

"It's... so dark here, so... so dark..."

Ma Jun followed Cao Ying's gaze and saw the mountain road illuminated by torches and the silent Wei soldiers.

"Stop talking..." Ma Jun said in a deep voice.

"It's so cold, as cold as the day my father died..."

"Don't talk..." Ma Jun pressed the hemostatic medicine on her wound, his eyes red.

"Deheng, come here and listen to me..." A hint of determination appeared on the corner of Cao Ying's mouth, but it quickly disappeared because of the pain.

"Stop talking, just beg you..." Ma Jun cried, his tears like a broken bead chain.

"I'm afraid I'm going to die. If I really die, please promise me...promise me, avenge me, be loyal to Wengweng, take me...take my will and my father's will...to help Da Wei !Dawei Heshan, Deheng, you protect me!"

Speaking of this, Cao Ying felt as if she had been pierced by thousands of arrows in the heart. She showed a difficult expression, and her voice became smaller and smaller, "Seeing that you are busy, I...I made a pair of gloves for you, I'm not going to lie to you. , very warm...just...just put it in the house, you...you have to go get it yourself...just wear it every day, don't be too tired from work and hurt your hands..."

At this point, Cao Ying seemed to be unable to hold on. "I feel so tired and want to sleep for a while, Deheng... hold me tight... hold me tight -"

Cao Ying's voice became smaller and smaller until it was swallowed up by the thick darkness of night.

Ma Jun didn't move, he just held Cao Ying tightly in his arms without saying a word.

After a long time, he suddenly whispered in a sleepy voice: "I told you, don't talk, don't talk, why are you disobedient and insist on talking..."

At this moment, everything was quiet. Not a single Wei soldier, including Xiahou Dun, made even the slightest sound. Only the crackling sound of burning torches occasionally sounded. The night wind carried the fallen leaves like injured animals, panicking. He passed by the crowd and disappeared at the end of the alley with a whimper.

Cao Ying's body has become cold——

As time goes by, it becomes colder and colder——

Finally, Ma Jun could no longer suppress the emotions in his heart, "Ah——"

"ah--"

"ah--"

This was the first time since he was a child that he neighed so desperately, as if he was trying to catch something with his neighing.

But alas, apart from the echo of the valley, there is... nothing here!

…

…

Cao Zhi, who was rescued, was still breathing heavily, as if he hadn't recovered yet.

Cao Pi, however, was already desperate to catch up with Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu frowned and said solemnly: "Master Zihuan, please rest in the Han Palace for a while. I will leave some tiger soldiers to protect you..."

When Cheng Yu's words came out, Cao Pi opened his mouth urgently: "Mr. Cheng, are you going to Wei Palace to save my father?"

"Exactly..."

"Then, can Pi help Mr. Cheng?"

"help?"

As if... Cheng Yu didn't expect Cao Pi to say such words at this time.

"Take me with you..." Cao Pi said with a firm tone, "Father, when leaving the Wei Palace, you must go through the North Palace Gate... It is the closest to the North Gate of Luoyang City, and there are troops supporting the retreat of Beimang Mountain at the North Gate..."

Cheng Yu also thought of what Cao Pi mentioned. He was leading his troops to the North Palace Gate of Wei Palace to meet Wei King Cao Cao.

Cao Pi's words continued, "Now that Luoyang City is on fire, who knows... how many spies from Jingzhou are there in this city. At this time, my father cannot let it be revealed to the public, and I... I know a road leading from the north gate of Wei Palace." The secret passage outside the north gate of Luoyang... I can take my father to evacuate from there!"

Secret passages?

When these two words came out of Cao Pi's mouth, Cheng Yu's footsteps that were running as fast as the wind suddenly stopped. He turned his gaze to Cao Pi in a serious and solemn manner, staring at Cao Pi, "You How do you know there is a secret passage there? It leads from Wei Palace to the outside of the city!"

yes…

At this time, all kinds of rebels suddenly appeared in Luoyang City. If you think about it with your toes, as long as they didn't fall from the sky, there is only one possibility: they emerged from the ground.

At exactly this time, Cao Pi mentioned the secret passage...

this…

No wonder Cheng Yu looked at him with suspicion and suspicion.

"Mr. Cheng..." Cao Pi quickly explained, "I was the first to build this city of Luoyang, and I set up the secret passage for the sake of becoming the heir to the throne. At this time, since I said it frankly...then...how could I have a ghost in my heart? On the contrary, it is my third disciple Jian, who built the subsequent Luoyang City. How can he not be suspicious when these rebels suddenly appear? But now is not the time to mention this, Mr. Cheng... you believe me!"

this…

Cheng Yu frowned. For a moment, he was a little confused and couldn't make up his mind.

But at this moment, Li Miao caught up with the two of them. He said directly: "I also know about the secret passage... Both Master Zihuan and Master Zijian have built secret passages in Luoyang City..."

this…

Cheng Yu suddenly raised his eyes, and turned to Li Miao with the same suspicious eyes that he looked at Cao Pi...

For a moment, he also doubted Li Miao.

But it was just for a moment. Suddenly, Cheng Yu realized that Li Miao, Cao Pi, and Cao Zhi had all participated in the construction of Luoyang City...

But... as Cao Pi said, now is not the time to interrogate this. He said seriously: "Okay, Master Zihuan, I will take you there, but whether I believe you or not, I can't decide whether you believe in your secret way. See if the king believes you..."

Having said this, he looked at Li Miao again.

There was something profound in this look, as if he suddenly understood...

——"What a man, Li Hannan, reaching out to the throne of the Crown Prince so early!" 』

——"It's me who underestimated you!" 』
