: Stealing Chicken Fails

In the early morning, the chill penetrated my skin. As the tent curtains were lifted, some small white things flew in in the early wind. Bai Yunshang drove the wheeled horse in, quickly lowered the curtains, and buttoned them up again.

To prevent the cold wind from being swept in.

Yang Qingruo glanced at Bai Yunshang, whose hair was stained with snow flakes, and asked, "Is it snowing outside?"

Bai Yunshang nodded: "It started raining just before dawn."

Yang Qingruo frowned: "Have you been reciting the Ksitigarbha Sutra all night?"

Bai Yunshang's pretty face, which was originally as bright as the moonlight, became a little dim at this moment, and her bright cherry lips also lost their color, looking a little pale and tired, but her eyes were still bright, as clear and calm as well water, and she did not answer.

Yang Qingruo just whispered: "Amitabha." Then he looked at the sleeping Gao Bufan.

"Isn't he awake yet?" Bai Yunshang asked lightly, with a trace of worry in his eyes. In the cave under Tingtao Cliff, Gao Bufan only slept for a few hours before waking up. Could it be that this time it was because of excessive consumption?

The reason?

Yang Qingruo shook her head, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her worry was palpable. Bai Yunshang stretched out her hands, which were red from the cold, and warmed them on the fire first, then stretched out her hand to take Gao Bufan's pulse, and found that it was beating very slowly.

He couldn't help but become more worried, and said lightly: "It seems that King Qi consumed too much yesterday, and he has not recovered yet."

Of course it's big. Gao Bufan started from the small forest on the hillside yesterday and fought all the way to the pile of rocks, and then from the pile of rocks to the river. Not more than three hundred enemy soldiers died under his sword and arrows.

There are two hundred and five.

Yang Qingruo nodded, sighed and said: "His recovery ability has always been very good, and he should be able to survive it. What I am most worried about now is that this situation may happen again in the future. If there is no way to stop him, I'm afraid he will

I will keep killing until I am exhausted."

Bai Yunshang was silent after hearing this, and then said after a long time: "The technique practiced by King Qi is defective. Haven't you figured out the reason yet?"

Yang Qingruo glanced at Bai Yunshang and said calmly: "You have to ask your father about this. He created the technique by himself. He doesn't even know it himself. How can others know it? How about you go back and ask him?"

"Amitabha!" Bai Yunshang lowered her eyes and softly recited the Buddha's name.

Yang Qingruo frowned and said: "Han, you have already broken the precepts of eating meat and killing. You are destined to never be a nun in this life. Are you still unwilling to face your biological parents?"

Bai Yunshang shook his head and said: "Since Yunshang entered Buddhism, there is no Han in the world, and Yunshang has made a great wish in front of the Buddha. In this life, he will take refuge in my Buddha, promote Buddhism, and save all sentient beings."

Yang Qingruo sneered: "You haven't cut off these three thousand worries, don't you think it's ridiculous to say this? And if you decide to follow Gao Lang back to Luoyang this time, you have already made a choice in your heart. Your Zen heart has been broken. Don't do it anymore.

You deceived yourself."

Bai Yunshang's delicate body trembled slightly, she put her palms together and said: "Amitabha, Princess Danyang may have misunderstood. For Yunshang, this is just an experience in the world of mortals. Yunshang should have this calamity in her life.

Only by crossing the sea of ​​suffering can you achieve Bodhisattva."

"Then why do Buddhists say that there is no limit to the sea of ​​suffering and you can only return to the shore?" Yang Qingruo said awkwardly.

"There are thousands of sufferings and difficulties in the world. Taking refuge in my Buddha means turning back. Yun Shang is already in the sea of ​​suffering. This side is the shore, and the other side is the shore. Once you reach the shore, you will cross the sea of ​​suffering."

"False reasoning, whatever. Since you want to continue to deceive yourself and others, I don't care." Yang Qingruo said calmly.

At this time, someone walked outside the tent and said respectfully: "Concubine Qing, General Cheng and General Shan have captured the cannibal Zhu Can and captured Yiling City. Special people have been sent back to report their victory to His Highness King Qi."

Yang Qingruo couldn't help but be overjoyed. He didn't expect that Cheng Yaojin and Shan Xiong not only captured Zhu Can, but also captured Yiling City. No wonder they didn't return home all night, that's great!

…………

Xiangyang City.

When Xu Shiji received the good news from Cheng Dan and the others, he jumped up from his seat with joy and said with a laugh: "Old Cheng, Old Cheng, I really have you, you are indeed a blessed general."

The generals present looked at each other and asked what happened. Xu Shiji smiled and said: "Cheng Yaojin and Shan Xiongxin have received the King of Qi. Not only did they capture the cannibal Zhu Can, they also captured Yiling City."

As soon as these words came out, the generals immediately became excited. Although the defenders of Yiling City were not many, they were located on the south bank of the Yangtze River. They could not be captured without naval forces. This is why General Manager Xu trained naval forces in Xiangyang.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin and Shan Xiongxin captured Yiling City with less than 2,000 cavalry. This piece of shit luck was really... enviable to others.

Xu Shiji smiled and said: "Yiling is located upstream of Jiangling. Now that it has been captured by General Cheng and General Shan, it is undoubtedly equivalent to controlling Xiao Mian's seven inches. How wonderful!"

Yu Shinan also smiled and said: "Xiao Mian originally planned to use Zhu Can to harm the King of Qi, but now that he has failed to steal the chicken, he will lose the rice. However, I have to say that General Cheng did a really good job this time, and he should be remembered as a miracle."

"This guy Lao Cheng is usually rude and rude, but his big belly is full of tricks." General Zhang Zhenzhou sighed.

The generals couldn't help laughing.

Xu Shiji smiled and said: "Yiling is very important to Xiao Mian. The other side will definitely counterattack in a big way. Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche, you will each lead a thousand cavalry to support Yiling immediately. I will arrive soon."

"The last general has your order!" Brothers Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche shouted, and immediately ordered two thousand cavalry to leave Xiangyang and gallop south.

Xiangyang is in the upper reaches of the Han River, and Yiling is in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. When the Qi naval forces attack from Xiangyang and Yiling respectively, Xiao Mian's capital, Jiangling, will be in danger. It will be caught in the middle and be attacked from both sides. As Yu Shinan said, Xiao Mian's situation

This time it was really a case of stealing the chicken but losing the rice, and actually handed over such an important strategic town as Yiling to the Qi army.

As a brilliant general, Xu Shiji naturally understood the importance of Yiling and attached great importance to it. Therefore, shortly after brothers Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche set off, he personally led an army of 30,000 to Yiling to welcome the King of Qi and

He wanted to personally guard Yiling, while Xiangyang was handed over to Zhang Zhenzhou and Pei Renji. Both of them were well-known veterans of the Sui Dynasty, and they were more than enough to guard Xiangyang.

The carriage swayed gently, like clouds floating in the sky. Of course, this was what Gao Bufan felt in his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a carriage, with his head resting on Yang Qingruo's elastic body.

On her pair of jade legs, her nose smelled a light body fragrance, no wonder it was so comfortable.

"You're awake!" Yang Qingruo found that someone had opened his eyes, his pretty face full of surprise.

Gao Bufan stretched out comfortably, and his elbow inadvertently touched the tender girl, which was very soft, and he immediately received an angry look. Gao Bufan felt hot in his heart, and he rubbed his head like a child coquettishly, Yang Qingruo

He slapped someone shyly and whispered: "Don't make trouble, there are many people outside!"

Gao Bufan hurriedly sat up, lifted the curtains and took a look. He found that there were all soldiers wearing strong armor outside. He quickly lowered the curtains and asked, "Qingruo, where is this?"

"We're almost here in Xiangyang." Yang Qingruo replied.

Gao Bufan was stunned: "We are almost arriving in Xiangyang? How long have I been asleep?"

Yang Qingruo said slightly angrily: "What do you think, it's been almost five days!"

Gao Bufan couldn't help but be stunned: "I... slept for five days?"

Yang Qingruo nodded, looked at Gao Bufan with a worried look and asked, "Is there anything uncomfortable on you?"

Gao Bufan quickly circulated his energy and blood, and found that his whole body was flowing smoothly, so he shook his head and said, "No, I feel comfortable everywhere."

Yang Qingruo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then Gao Lang still remembers what happened?"

Gao Bufan frowned and recalled: "Zhu Can chased him all the way to the river. We encountered a swamp. There was no way forward and there were pursuers behind us. We had no choice but to fight with them. Then Qing Ruo led people to kill from the swamp."

Come out to help me, and then I keep charging and killing, and then... I don’t seem to remember much of what happened next. Hey, I seem to still have a headache."

Yang Qingruo's heart tightened, and she quickly stretched out her slender jade fingers to massage Gao Bufan's eyebrows and temples, and said softly: "If you can't think of it, don't think about it."

Gao Bufan leaned comfortably into Yang Qingruo's arms, feeling the tenderness of the woman's chest, and asked: "By the way, Qingruo, what happened next?"

Yang Qingruo told what happened next. After hearing this, Gao Bufan couldn't help but said with joy: "Cheng Yaojin is indeed a blessed general."
