Heroes of the Fantasy World

Chapter 280 The Cage
(3)

The swordsman walking alone passed out due to excessive bleeding from his wounds. No matter how strong his desire was to drive him to stand up again, it was of no avail.

In the eyes of those who don't know the inside story, Baifeng is such a tragic character.He just lost his wife, and then almost exposed his body in the wilderness, he is really a pitiful person.

However, this young swordsman did have heroic actions, which made others admire him even more.Not only did he send horses to help Tong Erniang and Xia flee, but he also resolutely chose to go deep into the enemy's rear alone and return in blood. His courage and courage are enough to impress people who have never met.

It's just that in Tong Yao's eyes, all of this is at best a clever deception.I saw him sniggering slightly, telling all the soldiers and guards not to startle them, if they saw no one in the cave, they would immediately retreat back to Woye Town, and immediately carried Baifeng into the carriage by himself, and drove back home.

Early the next morning, Bai Feng, who hadn't closed her eyes for several days, was about to get up from a big bed filled with incense.The bed is surrounded by bead curtains, and the quilt and pillows are all made of silk, making it extremely comfortable. Outside the curtains, there is the faint sound of the charcoal oven roasting.

In summer, this sound would definitely make people complain and be kept at a distance, but now that the winter solstice has passed and the weather is getting colder, this sound will become especially heart-warming.

The little happiness in front of me makes people yearn for it, but it just can't keep Bai Feng's heart.I saw him lift the curtain and check the bandaged wound on his body with the light from outside the curtain. After confirming that there was no problem, he immediately stood up and looked for his coat and saber.

I just tossed and turned for a while, but still got nothing.After a while, a little servant girl came in from outside the door when she heard a strange noise inside the house, and asked Bai Feng respectfully, "Young man, are you resting now? Or is it that the quilt is not warm enough, and I want my servant to come in and help you?" warm?"

Seeing that she was so timid and cowardly facing him, Bai Feng felt embarrassed, cupped his hands and replied: "Girl, I appreciate your kindness, but I just want to ask, where are my clothes and sword? "

"When the young hero came here last night, he was covered in blood!" The little maidservant said in shock and fear as if her memory was still fresh: "Several servants helped you take off your clothes and wash your body before you wash your clothes." Send it back to the room... Your saber, don't you just put it on the sword stand? If the young man is better, the servant will go and report to the general?"

Bai Feng nodded silently, turned around and walked to the Shengjian stand, took the Longming sword and looked at it carefully, his face was finally not as anxious as before.

Seeing that the young man ignored her, the little maidservant stood outside the door and did not dare to move. A gust of cold wind blew by, making her shiver, so she couldn't help rubbing her body.After a while, she plucked up the courage to ask again: "Young Xia, how are you?"

"Ah?" Bai Feng was astonished, walked up to the little maidservant and bowed his hands and said: "Ma'am, please prepare my clothes for me, I'm going to go out here. As for General Tong, remember to say hello for me?"

The little maidservant obeyed the order and stepped back slowly.But half a moment later, she presented a long-sleeved cotton coat made of black fabric.After changing clothes for Bai Feng, the little maidservant did not intend to see off the guests, but passed Tong Yao's password with her mouth, and said: "Bai Shaoxia, General Tong invited you to today's celebration banquet, you are a great contributor to rescuing Mrs. Tong. !"

"Hehe, the girl is serious." Bai Feng straightened her clothes as if nothing had happened, and replied, "I just happened to pass by and sent a horse. As for the celebration banquet, my wife is still in the hands of gangsters. How can I be here peacefully?" live?"

After hearing this, the little maidservant left without saying a word.But after a while, Xia and Tong Yao were arguing outside the door.

One person said that he wanted to go home to see his mother and child, but the other explained helplessly: "Sister Xia, I told you last night that I have entrusted someone to take care of your mother and child, so you should rest here for a few days." God!"

Bai Feng saw that the two of them were swaying, looking forward and backward, afraid that others would gossip, thought it was ridiculous, and thought to himself: "I am afraid that General Tong's intention is not just to launch a coup." Then, he left Between Xia and Tong Yao, ask why they had a dispute.

Tong Erniang walked for a long time in the courtyard of her own family, and finally found this place.As soon as she saw Xia making a fuss about going home, she immediately stepped forward and tried to persuade her: "Sister Xia, Miss Xia, do you really want to leave? I haven't thanked you enough for being able to return here safely!"

"I only blame ghosts for being obsessed at the beginning, and forcibly broke up a good marriage..." Tong Erniang said, then looked at Tong Yao and Xia regretfully, and then murmured: "What a beautiful girl! I heard that there are still A wonderful embroidery technique."

Seeing this, Tong Yao knew that more bad rumors would spread in the future, fearing that it would affect Xia's family, so he hurriedly stopped in front of Erniang Tong, suddenly changed his attitude, and issued an order to expel Xia, saying: " Miss Xia, I know you have concerns, if it's really inconvenient for you today, then it's not too late for us to get together another day. Let's go!"

After Xia heard Tong Erniang's attitude, her heart was already shaken.Because she always thought that it was Tong Yao who betrayed his morality and fell into the devil. She never thought that there were so many people around him helping him.However, she still hesitated for a long time.

Seeing her hesitation, the young swordsman planned to give her a helping hand, saying: "Madam Xia, since you and I are guests, we have to obey the orders of the master. Anyway, I am going out for a walk, why don't we go back together?" Bar?"

After finishing speaking, Xia really agreed, and after saying goodbye to everyone, she immediately turned and walked towards the gate, followed closely by Bai Feng.

Seeing the two great benefactors leaving like this, Tong Erniang felt that she was not well behaved and felt ashamed, she went back to the house with a sigh, and kept talking about how Tong Yao drove away the distinguished guests. no.

Tong Yao's current posture is more upright and dignified than before, he is not afraid to express his political opinions, he only said: "If it weren't for years of wars, he'll have so many rebels and bandits at his command! Two Mother, you just listen to me, from now on, withdraw your troops and stick to the fertile fields!"

In this way, the silent coup is about to be completed.

Bai Feng followed Xia, just about to step out of the threshold, but was stopped by the left and right guards extending their halberds, blocking the way forward.

They shouted in unison: "General! Is Young Master Bai leaving too?"

The young swordsman suddenly thought of the fable about "the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked", and immediately clenched the sword in his right hand, ready to draw it at any time.

Tong Yao glanced back, just in time to see Xia who was startled by the guard in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "You people! Bai Shaoxia is my friend, and I promised to help him find his wife. He alone People and horses rescued my second mother and sister Xia, but lost my wife. We were not useful at all, and now we have the audacity to block other people's way? It's unreasonable in the world."

After hearing the general's reprimand, the left and right guards apologized to Bai Feng one after another, and only whispered beside him: "Young Xia Bai, we look forward to your visit in the future."

"Thank you brothers for your kindness, I will definitely come." Bai Feng knew that it would be difficult for him to leave Woye in the future, just because he had hidden the secret of the coup d'état, and these Tong Yao's personal guards even threatened him secretly, making him uneasy. Dare to leave Woye Town at will.

On the way, Bai Feng kept feeling in his heart: "You have just regained your normal identity, but you want to run around with this identity on your back?"

Looking at Xia's nimble and small back, he suddenly noticed that the other party was wearing a pair of new shoes, with a smile on his face, always talking about how he thanked Bai Feng and Murong Yan for their kindness, and from time to time he would optimistically comfort the young man The swordsman said: "Miss Murong is an auspicious person, you will definitely find her!"

Bai Feng saw that she was as happy as a girl who hadn't left the cabinet yet. Based on his promise to Tong Yao or his own heart, he couldn't find any reason to make him make up his mind to tell her the truth behind it—all of this was Tong Yao's. In the game laid out, you and I are just pawns.

So along the way, Bai Feng just laughed and said some good things.When he came to Xia's house, he saw that his mother and children were being taken care of by the doctor's wet nurse. Finally, he walked away with peace of mind and returned to the chamber of commerce's post to join Su Qing and the others.
