After Cui Jing said these words, she turned around and walked towards her horse. After a moment, she turned back with an extra baggage in her hand.
Li Suining looked at the baggage: "For me?"
Cui Jing nodded and handed it over.
Li Suining was a little curious. When he opened the baggage, he saw that the thing inside was a velvet hat sewn from a whole piece of silver fox skin.
It is now the beginning of autumn.
However, Li Suining put it on with great interest. The velvet hat was very large and thick, and could protect the entire head and ears. Li Suining quickly tied a knot with the lower laces with his fingers, so that most of his cheeks were covered, only
Show a pair of eyes and nose.
Those bright black eyes were filled with smiles: "It's very suitable. Did you do it?"
"Yes." Cui Jing looked at her: "Autumn and winter are coming, and it's cold in Beidi. Bring it with you to protect yourself from the wind and snow."
Li Suining looked into the young man's eyes, which were as clear as silver snow on green pines, nodded to him, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm not afraid of the wind and snow in the north anymore."
The experience of being buried in the snowy fields of Beidi in her previous life caused her to be told by her teacher to "wear more clothes" when she left Taiyuan in the scorching summer heat; and this time, she received such a thick fox velvet hat in the cool autumn wind.
The teacher and Cui Ling'an were both afraid of her getting cold.
And if we count them in detail, it is not just the teacher and Cui Ling'an who have the same worries.
Her death in her previous life seemed to be a heart disease in the hearts of those who knew about it. As long as she was close to Beidi and overlapped with the word Beidi, this heart disease would break out.
Li Suining was thinking recently. In mystical theory, it was mentioned that the way everything in heaven and earth is connected is that one thought can change the direction of all things. It is precisely because all things attract each other invisibly. To put it in layman's terms, it seems that disaster comes from the mouth.
, whatever you are afraid of will always come -
Perhaps, it was precisely because too many people could not let go of the calamity related to her. The so-called fate of heaven swallowed up the fear in the hearts of all living beings and transformed it into calamity, so her calamity should be in the old land of Beidi.
Therefore, she must not avoid this disaster.
What she wants to resolve is not only the calamity of her own life, but also the calamity of the hearts of those around her.
Fear is meant to be broken. Only by breaking fear can you gain the power of independence. This is a truth she has understood since she was a child.
Besides, given the current situation, she must go to Beidi.
Therefore, for her, this calamity did not happen in Beidi, but happened on the path she must take. It was even attached to her flesh and blood and temperament. She was destined to be unable to avoid it, and she did not want to avoid it.
Tian Jing said that she came back from the dead to change the number of lives in the world. So her disaster must be closely related to all living beings. If she avoids it, she doesn't know where it will be fulfilled in the future, and whether it will be in a more serious way.
Appearing in a fierce and fierce way——
If she doesn't even dare to face this calamity, how can she help people change their lives?
Regarding this, Li Suining could not say that she had made a decision in advance. Decisions were the result of choices, and she had never hesitated.
She never mentioned these words to anyone, and her determination did not need to be explained in words.
At this moment of parting, she did not make any ambitious words. She just turned to face the stream, bent slightly, and using the thin skylight and the clear stream as a mirror, she looked at the velvet hat on her head and praised seriously: "It's really beautiful."
good."
She looked at the reflection of the young man on the stream and said to his reflection: "I wear it very well, and your craftsmanship is also very good."
Then, he said: "Cui Jing, you have done too much for me."
The young man's voice is like the morning breeze blowing through the valley: "What's the point?"
"It's worth mentioning." Li Suining raised his head and looked at the mountains and rivers in the distance opposite, his eyes following a flying bird: "What you have done for me, even if I just think about it casually, I often feel sleepy for three days."
I can’t even count the three nights.”
She turned her head and looked at him with a smile in her eyes: "Cui Jing, it's really enough."
"Even if you are standing here now, you are of great help to me."
"If it weren't for you, if it weren't for you, I would definitely not dare to go north with peace of mind and defend the pass. I can only trust you and leave it to your hands."
"Cui Ling'an," she finally said, "just guard the door of your house and wait for me to come back."
It is an exhortation, a delivery, and a promise.
The morning light gradually emerged, but there was no rising sun. The flames of war seemed to have dyed the clouds into light gray.
Under the gray morning light, Cui Jing watched Li Suining get on the horse.
A Dian, who had been staring at his Royal Highness, who was eating cake not far away, immediately ran towards his horse - the cake was confiscated by Shecai from the kitchen camp of the Beidi people. A Dian loved it and ate it continuously.
Three pictures. Although Ah Dian didn't stop eating the cake, his eyes were unblinking, staring at Li Suining all the time, for fear that he would be left behind.
At this moment, A Dian bit the remaining half of the cake in his mouth, hurriedly climbed on the horse's back, and drove the horse to follow.
Soon, shepherd's purse and others also mounted their horses. In addition to Li Suining's confidants, they were followed by three thousand elite cavalry from the Xuance Mansion, five hundred Longyou soldiers and nomads who were familiar with the terrain of Beidi, and nearly a hundred Beidi prisoners, a total of close to
Five thousand people were all personally selected by Cui Jing.
When they arrived, each of them was riding at least two horses. In addition, there were nearly 500 Beidi war horses at this time——
In this raid, nearly 3,000 Beidi war horses were captured, of which nearly 1,000 were stopped by Luohuo. Luohuo could tell at a glance which horses were the leading horses in the group, and led them to intercept and capture more than ten of the leading horses.
Therefore, thousands of war horses were sent down.
The five hundred war horses brought by Li Suining were selected by Cui Jing, and they were also guarded by durians. They were all very strong and brave.
At this moment, Liu Huo followed Li Suining, leading thousands of troops behind him, galloping away.
The horses trampled over lush grasslands and ran through streams and shallow rivers.
A Dian was shaken by the fire, and after laughing heartily for a while, he started shouting and drinking at the majestic mountains and rivers in front of him.
Kang Zhi also shouted, waving her whip in the air with a heroic expression.
There were countless shouts and laughter in the army, and the clatter of horses' hooves was heard.
No matter what the road ahead is, at this moment their ambitions are broad and their spirits are flying.
As the army embarked on its return journey, its mood was as heavy as water, worrying about the comrades and prince who were leaving behind them.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cui Jing did not say a word or look back.
He and she are going in opposite directions, but there is still something in this world - [Everyone works hard on the road, and thousands of miles apart, the same wind flows.]
The gray clouds have not dispersed, and the wind brings a fine drizzle of rain.
At this moment, the raindrops are like needles and the autumn wind is like threads, connecting people running to the north and south respectively.
With this lingering feeling, Cui Jing led his army back to Guanshan and entered the country.
The raid was a great success and we returned home with a full load. However, in addition to returning home with a full load, we did not see the crown prince return. The seat next to the general was empty, missing a crucial person.
There were only a few generals who knew the inside story. They braced themselves up without showing any strange emotions, and turned around to convey the good news of their victory to the troops. Soon, the military camp burst into cheers.
Amidst the cheers, Cui Jing left the remaining matters to Yuan Xiang, and went to look for Wujue himself.
Just as he returned to camp and dismounted, Cui Jing suddenly thought of something strange. When he left last night, he did not see Master Wujue coming to see him off...
Did Master Wujue dare not leave without permission because he was guarding the jade array?
It's best so...
However, Cui Jing already had a bad premonition in his heart.
He quickly came to Wujue's tent, which was heavily guarded by his confidants and no one was allowed to enter without permission. He saw Wujue, who was dressed in gray and white robes, sitting cross-legged with his back facing the tent door, his back showing a look of desolation for no apparent reason.
Cui Jing paused for a moment before raising his legs and stepping forward: "Master——"
Wu Jue did not move, Cui Jing's eyes fell on the square white jade stone about four feet long and wide in front of him.
This piece of jade is clear and has no trace of impurities. It is exactly the same as the jade of the statue in the Tiannv Pagoda.
On the jade, cinnabar is used to depict talisman patterns, and the horoscopes of two people are engraved respectively. The cinnabar is bright red, and it is like blood when engraved on the white jade, exuding a strange and taboo atmosphere.
There is a secret formation hidden on this jade plate.
However, the objects from both sides that were supposed to be enshrined in the secret formation were nowhere to be seen.
Upon closer inspection, it can be seen that the square jade is no longer complete, but has been broken in the middle, and is just being forcibly pieced together at this moment.
It is obvious that this array has been destroyed.
Cui Jing's eyes turned cold for a moment, with little exposed murderous intent, and her voice was full of coldness: "Who destroyed it?"
Wujue finally answered: "I destroyed it myself."
Cui Jing's eyes left the jade plate and slowly looked at him.
"Your Highness knows." Wujue's voice was very low, as if his strength had been drained: "Your Highness asked me to destroy it."
The young man's thick, dark eyelashes trembled slightly, and in an instant, all the murderous intent around him disappeared, leaving only a daze and confusion.
This secret formation begins when Li Suining went to the northern border for the first time and was followed by Wu Jue.
That day, as the sun was setting, Cui Jing came to see Wu Jue.
At that time, Wu Jue was worrying about the method that could not solve the calamity. He thought that Cui Jing was the one who brought His Highness back by chance and was not an outsider, so he revealed the calamity.
During that conversation, Cui Jing thought that the "avoidance" strategy proposed by Wujue was not feasible.
He didn't think that she would change her course because of this fate.
On the contrary, the existence of this fate may actually arouse her "disobedience" that she does not want to be coerced by this so-called fate.
Because she knew very well that her fate was facing a catastrophe, and the fate of everyone was also facing a catastrophe. Rather than turning her back and avoiding it, he believed that she would only choose to face the disaster.
After listening to Cui Jing's words, Wujue fell into a long silence.
Until Cui Jing asked, if this disaster is unavoidable, is there any other way to resolve it?
Wujue answered with the word "you" first, and then said two words: "Bi Jie."
However, all things maintain their own course, and even evil formations that defy the heavens often require at least the same price in exchange.
The number of candidates for the replacement is slim. Not to mention that this method requires the person who is the replacement to be willing to replace him. The biggest problem is: [His Royal Highness’s destiny is precious and no one can take his place.]
Wujue tried to use himself as a substitute, but he no longer belonged to this world, so it didn't work.
He also thought unkindly of putting Tianjing on it. Tianjing was willing to do so, but the destiny of Tianjing was not worthy of replacement.
At that time, as soon as Wu Jue finished speaking, he saw the young man in front of him writing down the eight characters with a pen. When he put down the pen, he pushed the paper in front of him: "Master, please give it a try."
What Cui Jing wrote was his own horoscope.
Wujue was stunned for a moment, and under the gaze of that calm gaze, he made a prediction.
Wu Jue didn't have much "hope" at first, and most of his thoughts were just to make Cui Jing give up, but the result was beyond his expectation.
The direct descendant of the Cui family in Qinghe and the general of the Xuance Mansion, his destiny is naturally unique, but it is not enough to say that it is equal to that of His Highness——
However, in addition to the inherent preciousness of fate, the virtues of his people are precious and rare in the world, and only one person can live in them for hundreds of years.
Over the years, Cui Jing has stuck to her true nature, stained her hands with countless blood, but also accumulated countless negative virtues.
What's more important is that he and Li Suining have similar fates... Wujue suddenly thought of the identity of the "chance person", had a vague epiphany, and suddenly felt that everything had been arranged long ago.
Cui Jing also felt that fate had already been planned.
Wu Jue said that he had a lot of moral integrity, and the reason why he embarked on this path of protecting the common people was not precisely because of the guidance she gave her when he rescued her many years ago?
After many years of life and death, all causes and effects form a cycle of their own.
With what she had given, it was not even a sacrifice, it was just a return - Cui Jing did not hesitate.
Even though Wu Jue told him that due to the different severity of fate, the uncertainty of life and death presented to His Highness during this calamity, if it were transferred to him, it would most likely be a calamity of certain death, Cui Jing did not hesitate.
【Let her live, I will deal with this disaster.】
[Master does not need to be in trouble, which is a great blessing for Cui. 】
He had always felt that he could do too little for her, and this time he could finally show some decent intentions.
Cui Jing made this decision long before Li Suining returned to his clan in Taiyuan.
After that, he always thought about what else he could do for her before that day came.
So there were many trivial things, including following her back to Taiyuan, holding an umbrella for her, performing a sword dance for her, choosing soldiers and horses to accompany her, escorting her on her last journey... He was involved in every little thing.
A peaceful farewell.
However, at this moment, what filled Cui Jing's mind was the words Li Suining said before parting:
【Cui Jing, you have done too much for me.】
【Cui Jing, it’s really enough.】
She finally said: [Cui Ling'an, guard the door of your house and wait for me to come back.]
The reason why he was asked to wait for her was because she gave him back the life he had given him.
There was a strong wind outside the tent.
Cui Jing stood next to the broken jade plate, almost with tears in her dark eyes. She turned her head and looked through the curtain that was blown up by the strong wind, looking at the turbulent clouds outside the tent.
The rain was as dense as needles, and his sense of self-righteousness disappeared.
He was panicked and fearful, and the calmness and calmness he had relied on for so long was completely shattered.
But he soon understood her persistence...
She didn't want to be restrained and manipulated, not even the fate of fate, nor his self-righteous efforts.
The world can accompany her and support her, but they cannot replace her.
Maybe he has always understood, how could he not understand... It's just that he was too scared and reluctant to face the fact that she might leave.
At this time, all the delusions came to nothing, and fear was overwhelming. However, when the mountains and seas were overturned, and the earth was shaking, the figure that Cui Jing saw in his heart became more and more heroic and free, independent between the heaven, earth, mountains and seas, but also among them.
outside.
The further north you go, the stronger the wind becomes.
Li Suining led his army through a vibrant grassland, with vegetation fluttering like ocean waves.
A strong wind was blowing, and her black hair and cloak were flying together with the rain.
