The waiting time is very long, especially the waiting without hope, which is more like a kind of torture. It is like a stone in my heart, the edges and corners of which are constantly hurting me.
Yi'an Gaowa was naturally tossing and turning. She couldn't forgive herself. If she had known it was so painful, she might as well have been arrested with them.
Thinking of this, she slowly stood up, put on her sheepskin clothes, took down the saber hanging on the wall, and walked out of the tent gently.
The moon and stars have long been hidden from view, the breeze is gently ruffling the green grass, and the sound of cicadas and the sound of horse hooves can be heard from time to time.
She rushed to the stable alone, and when she saw that the guards were all sleeping, she flew on the horse without ceremony. The horse was frightened, and when it was about to throw her off, she tightened the reins and tamed the horse.
docile and obedient.
"Ma'er, please help me rescue Bug, okay?" Yi'an Gaowa turned sideways and said to the horse's ear.
The horse shook its head as if understanding, while Yi'an Gaowa kicked the horse's belly hard, only to hear a neigh, and the horse rushed out of the stable like lightning and ran towards the distance.
The soldiers woke up from their frightened dream. They looked at the stables in a daze, and saw that the horses had been stolen! The frightened group of people hurriedly reported it.
"Hurry up, horse!" Yi'an Gaowa was so anxious that she could not wait to reach Haojigeri's mansion in a short while. Riding on the horse, it seemed as if she was chasing the wind.
Yi'an Gaowa arrived at Haojigeri's mansion, under the gaze of the statue of Hanasher. She jumped off the horse, knelt in front of the statue and said piously: "May my ancestor Hanasher bless me, and may my journey go smoothly!
"
After Nalanbug's troubles, the guard who once guarded the door has become the patrol leader, and there are more guards in the yard, which makes Yi'an Gaowa's infiltration operation more difficult. But fortunately, Yi'an Gaowa
With his wit and change, he successfully figured out the route into the prison.
Perhaps it was due to the blessing of Hanasher that she encountered almost no obstacles along the way, but this did not affect her vigilance at all. Even the chirping of a cicada could arouse her fear.
Yi'an Gaowa roared angrily and kicked open the prison door. The shocked jailers drew their sabers one after another: "We are here to rob the prison!"
She was not afraid, she aimed her saber at the jailer and stabbed him, then turned around and kicked the other jailer down.
"Ding!" She collided with the jailer's two sabers, and the jailer slashed at Yi'an Gaowa's stomach. Yi'an Gaowa took advantage of the situation and did a backflip, throwing the saber as a dart. She only heard a scream, and the man
He fell into a pool of blood.
Another jailer rushed out from the dark prison. Yi'an Gaowa saw the opportunity, grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground, and suddenly threw it towards the jailer's face. Then he jumped up and kicked hard with his left hand.
The jailer's right cheek was knocked unconscious on a nearby wooden pillar.
Yi'an Gaowa quickly searched for the key on the guards and succeeded! She ran inside without hesitation. Deep in the prison, an oil lamp was blown by the wind and flickered on and off. She asked tentatively: "
Bug, where are you?"
"Gaowa, is that you? I'm behind you!"
She turned around and saw Nalan and Bug sitting slumped in the cage. Bug asked, "Didn't you abandon us and run away alone?"
"Let's not talk about this for now, I will rescue you first!" Yi'an Gaowa hurriedly took out the key and inserted it into the lock with trembling. The lights flickered on and off, which further intensified the tense and depressing atmosphere.
The lock of the cage was opened, and just as the three of them were about to run out, Nalan suddenly shouted: "There are still shackles!"
She was so frightened that she quickly ran back and kept flipping over the man.
"Who is trying to rob the prison here?" The patrol captain led the soldiers into the prison. When they saw the jailer's body lying on the ground in a mess, they became furious and pulled out their sabers and went deep inside.
Bug heard the huge footsteps, his face was slightly startled, and he shouted anxiously: "Someone is coming, run away!"
Yi'an Gaowa will never run away. If she does run away, she will regret it for the rest of her life. The hard work pays off! Finally, I found several sets of keys in a person's pants.
She ran back to Buge in a hurry, trembling and inserting all the keys again and again. She was so anxious that she almost cried, but she still didn't untie the shackles. As the soldiers gradually deepened, Buge went crazy.
Shouting: "Run quickly, I have to
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It’s too late!”
"I don't want it! I don't want my conscience to suffer anymore!" Yi'an Gaowa cried, opening the shackles at the last key and untying the two of them. Just as they were about to stand up, a bright blade was placed on them.
on the neck...
On the other side, Qingmeng pretended that the chief was too dim to recognize the words, so he forged a secret edict to usurp the throne in Haojigeri's voice. At this time, the spy Qingmeng had planted at Haojigeri's mansion came back to report
.
"Tonight, a woman went to rob the prison and was captured by Haojigeri. We have temporarily decided to kill her at Mao tomorrow." The spy reported the situation.
The guard guarding the stables also came to report that the horses had been stolen. He was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. He quickly picked up the fake edict and went to the chief's tent.
As soon as Qingmeng walked to the big tent, she heard a violent cough inside, followed by Mrs. Shi Ren's comfort: "Dad, are you okay?"
"As time goes by, you will naturally get used to it..." the chief replied slowly in a hoarse voice.
"I hope my father is safe and sound, and my daughter will buy some medicinal materials right now!" Mrs. Shi Ren was about to leave.
"Don't, don't spend that wasted money. Hanasher wants to take away our family's lives, and no one can stop him." The chief tried to stop him weakly, and then he coughed violently again.
Qing Meng thought hard for a long time before standing outside the door and whispering: "My son-in-law is here to visit his father-in-law."
"My dear son-in-law, please come in quickly." The chief was busy getting off the bed, and Mrs. Shi Ren quickly stepped forward to help him.
Qingmeng walked into the big tent, knelt down on one knee and said: "As expected by my father-in-law, Haojigeri really has the intention to rebel. This silk book was found by my son-in-law's spy. I also asked my father-in-law to read it."
Qingmeng knew that the chief's eyesight was dim and he could not see clearly, let alone distinguish it. Mrs. Shi Ren did not recognize the handwriting of Haojigeri, so she just read it as it was.
The chief's face instantly became livid, and he couldn't stabilize his body. He collapsed on the ground and said, "Quickly, get our jade here."
This jade is a symbol of the chief's identity. If he owns it, it proves that he is sending a message on behalf of the chief. Qing Meng naturally understands the truth and waits motionless.
"This is the symbol of the chief of the Haupt tribe. Our family is old and weak and unable to lead the army. We still hope that our virtuous son-in-law will go to conquer Haojigeri in the name of the chief." The chief placed the jade in Qing Meng's palm, and Qing Meng pressed it tightly.
Holding tightly, just like his desire for power.
On the eve of Mao o'clock the next day, on an open grassland near the Haupt settlement, a prison car was slowly driving past and arrived at the execution ground. Three teenagers were wearing prison uniforms, and their shackles were clattering against each other.
A bald old man was sitting on a sheepskin chair. He was Hao Jigiri. He looked at the three teenagers on the execution ground with a sneer. Where had Nalan seen such a formation before? He was so frightened that he cried on the spot.
Buge, on the other hand, had a calm look on his face: "We've already done this, what's the point of crying?"
There was a crowd of people watching the excitement all around. Of course, there were also some stragglers who were chatting away.
Because of the chains, they knelt on the execution platform. The early morning wind was still carrying a bit of coldness, and the broadsword beside them was even more chilly. The sun had not yet fully risen.
"The hour has come!" The executioner roared and raised his sword. Nalan bit his lower lip in fear and kept twisting his bent legs to relieve the pain.
Haojigeri stood up, stared at the three people and said, "According to the rules of our Anjiwa people, everyone can make one last request before they die."
He looked at Nalan and motioned for him to speak first. Nalan swallowed his voice and slowly came out with a few words: "Give me... some... water."
"Satisfy him!" The executioner took off his cowhide water bag from his waist and fed Nalan water. Nalan drank greedily. After all, for him, this might be the last time in his life.
Haojigeri walked up to Buge and said, "You are the one who killed my son? The boy is quite capable. Let me hear your last request!"
Bug raised his head and laughed loudly: "Can I burn your mansion for burial?"
"Bastard!" Haojige slapped Bug in the mouth angrily, and Bug tilted his head.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his hair hung limply.
Haojigeri stamped his feet angrily and called to the executioner: "Execution immediately! Execution immediately!"
"Wait!" Yi'an Gaowa interrupted Haojige's tantrum, and then said: "I also want to make one last request!"
Haojigeri turned to look at Yi'an Gaowa. Even though he was unwilling to meet the requirements of a female slave, the ancestral law cannot be abolished, not to mention that there were people watching all around. If he did not meet her reasonable requirements,
If you do, your face will be almost completely lost.
"Tell me, what are your requests?" Haojigeri walked up to Yi'an Gaowa and asked.
"My man must stand upright and die under the Heaven of Eternal Life, and he must never be a groveling person!" Yi'an Gaowa's eyes were determined, and everyone present was in an uproar.
Only Bug was looking at him with tears in his eyes...
"Okay, no matter how you die, it will be a death, then I will satisfy you!" Haojige's executioner dragged Bug up.
Hao Jige stepped off the execution platform and said arrogantly: "There are no regrets now, right? Then go die!"
At that moment, there was a sound of fighting and iron horses running from the side of the mountain, and a loud roar was heard: "Save one under the sword!"
The herdsmen were so frightened that they fled in all directions. They saw Qingmeng followed by 500 cavalrymen, rushing towards him in a cloud of dust, and instantly surrounded the entire execution ground.
Haojigeri sat on the ground in fright: "You... who are you?"
Qing Meng picked up the jade in his hand and shouted loudly: "Here is the chief's jade, and I have been ordered to come and defeat the rebels!"
Before Haojigeri could react, Qing Meng waved his hand, and several cavalry soldiers stabbed him. Finally, he was stabbed five or six times and died, with his blood staining the grass red.
"What are you doing standing still? Untie their shackles quickly!" Qing Meng ordered the cavalry on one side, and on the other side, he gestured to the executioner on the side to leave. After all, he did not want to kill innocent people indiscriminately.
Nalan threw himself into Qingmeng's arms like a child and cried loudly. Qingmeng gently touched his head and constantly comforted him.
Then he looked at Bug. His wrists and ankles were bruised by the shackles, and there was a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth. He looked like a brave man on the grassland, not yielding to anyone.
"You have grown up, Bug." Qingmeng nodded and smiled.
Bug was silent, he didn't know whether he was mature or not. But he knew that from today on, Bug was no longer the coward he once was, and his once cowardly and inferior soul was gone forever.
As dawn broke, the color of the sky became lighter and brighter, and the fiery red clouds spread slowly. Yi'an Gaowa slowly walked forward and said to Bug: "You are still so childish!"
Bug's pupils trembled, and she looked at Yi'an Gaowa in surprise. She took out Bug's jade that she carried with her and gave it back to him. Then she pulled off a red ribbon from the blood-stained part of her clothes: "I want to prove it."
My own strength? I want to see if you are worthy of me, Yi'an Gaowa!"
She grabbed a cavalry horse and ran towards the dawn, blood-stained red ribbons flying loosely in the sky. Buger mounted Qingmeng's horse, and just as he looked back at everyone, Qingmeng
Mengze shouted loudly: "Go and pursue your happiness!"
Bug clamped the horse's belly tightly, and the horse quickly caught up. Under the dawn, on the open grassland, the wild grass exuded a delicate fragrance.
This is not just a simple red ribbon, it symbolizes his strength and happiness. Bug was almost knocked off his horse. Yi'an Gaowa was not tempted at all, but instead whipped his whip harder and harder, as if like the sky.
Like an eagle, it longs to fly to the sun.
Bug will never show weakness! He tried his best to run against Changshengtian. At this moment, he is no longer the timid and coward Bug, not anymore!
The sun came out, and Bug leaned forward. At this time, all he could hear in his ears was the beating of horse hooves and heartbeat.
"It's just a little bit... just a little bit..."
A ray of light shone on his hand. He clenched the outstretched hand and tightly grasped the red ribbon stained with blood.
