Legend of the Demon Emperor of Kyushu

Chapter 137 Baicheng Frost (6)

Spring of the 18th year of Wuxuan, Hanye City, Qiufeng Lake
In the Dongbo Pavilion, Bai Chengshuang, who has been tempered in the army for two years, was enjoying the scenery alone, when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps behind him, turned around, and it was Lian Hongye and Xue Yi who came over, and said with a smile: "Teacher, Xue Yi General, long time no see."

After the three of them greeted each other, Lian Hongye said: "I have figured out the moves you asked about. Go outside the city tonight and let Xue Yi teach you."

"Thank you teacher." Baichengshuang smiled and thanked.

Lian Hongye sighed heavily.In the past, Baicheng Han, the lord of the Ju Kingdom, not only left a Hanpo Spear for future generations, but also wrote a "Hand Soul Spear Manual", recording the essence of his own martial arts, which is the secret of the Baicheng royal family. Historically, only the cold gun masters among the descendants of the Hundred Cities were able to read it.

But in order to quickly learn and understand marksmanship, Baichengshuang actually threw this cheat book directly to him, let him read it thoroughly, and then teach it to her.If Baicheng Jiong, the lord of the country, knew about this, it would be really difficult for him, a general, to explain.

However, Xue Yi and Bai Chengshuang were the two juniors he couldn't deal with the most.If he doesn't agree, it seems that Xue Yi will really teach Bai Chengshuang to imitate his own handwriting and write a love letter to Yin Changhua.In the end, he could only take advantage of Xue Yi.

"This is to congratulate Princess Shuang's promotion, not to prove the master and apprentice. The princess should know." Lian Hongye said in a deep voice.

"Yes—" Baichengshuang said softly.

"Okay, okay, we're all our own people, so don't put on airs here, let me do the talking." Xue Yi interjected with a smile, and said:
"Princess Shuang, how is your stay in Yiwei recently? Didn't you fight with your brother again? From now on, when you are promoted to commander, there will probably be more quarrels between you brothers and sisters. You must fight more and more bravely. Don't Coaxed him—oh, General!"

"Nonsense!" Lian Hongye interrupted Xue Yi's provocative words with a slap, and opened his mouth and said, "But..." After saying two words, he paused again. Seeing this, Xue Yi took two steps back and laughed again. Said:
"However, according to our country's traditional rules, whoever can hold the Hanpo Spear will be the king of the Ju Kingdom. Although you are a daughter, you can't compete with Bai Chengyan for the throne, but as long as you are the owner of the Hanpo Spear, you will be the king of the country. Let others feel that Bai Chengyan is not worthy of Wang Zide, and that he is not the real king chosen by heaven.

So Bai Chengyan hated you so much in his heart, even if he didn't make any mistakes, he would definitely trouble you.You just need to remember that no matter what happens in the first guard, you don't have to endure bullying, just answer back, the second guard will support you at any time! "

The chief guard of the second guard looked at him, as if he hadn't heard these words of assurance for the second guard.

Baichengshuang smiled and agreed: "Then thank you, General Xue." But his eyes looked at Lian Hongye, who seemed to be immersed in the spring lake scenery.

"Cough, cough." After a while, the general known as Iron Wall seemed to have caught a cold, coughed twice, and then said: "Speaking of which, the Lord seems to be thinking about your marriage recently. What do you think?" ?”

Baichengshuang's eyes froze slightly, and he said, "This kind of matter is naturally arranged by my father."

"It is of course the duty of a minister to obey the arrangement of the lord. It's just a matter of life. If it's yours, you can say a few words. For example, what requirements do you have for your ideal husband, or which princely young man you like... ..."

Bai Chengshuang raised his face to Lian Hongye, and asked with a smile, "Does the general think I will like someone too? Or is there someone who really likes Han Po's gun master?"

The master of the cold gun, the master of life is lonely.Baichengshuang had long accepted it.

Lian Hongye said: "Daughter's family, how can there be no reason not to be loved by others? Even if the heart is really frosty, it doesn't mean that it has nothing to do with others. I remember Songzhou's first poem sang like this: Hard work is the most pity for the sky and the moon. Like a ring, the past and the past have become a jue. If it is like the moon, it will be bright and clean, and the ice and snow will be warm. (Note)
If you have the heart, even if you are in the moon palace, someone will chase it back, let alone you are just holding a gun.Even if it's against your father, don't despise yourself too much. "

After hearing this, Baichengshuang turned her face to Xue Yi and said, "Master is comforting me. I want a woman who can't even make up to choose her husband brazenly."

Xue Yi laughed when he heard the words: "Haha, General Lian is right. People in Central China say that a woman with a magic weapon in her hand doesn't need makeup, she has her own gods to do makeup for her. Our princess doesn't need to rely on those vulgar rouge. Powder."

Baichengshuang said: "Could it be that General Xue is willing to look at me more in the past few years after picking up the artifact?"

Xue Yi smiled and said: "That's right, our princess is likable, and it's a blessing to see her more."

Baichengshuang saw that these two big men were entertaining their private affairs, so he ignored them, turned his gaze to the lake, and said in a low voice:
"lie."

Obviously, these two people have their own objects to focus on, and there is no room for others in their eyes.

However, should it be said that like attracts like?It is precisely because of this kind of person that he can not care about offending the future king of the Ju country, and stand with her, an orphan girl who will leave the city at some point.

Is it because you pity her?Or, are people who are lonely in their hearts, will they hug each other unconsciously?
It's a pity that such a warm time is always too short. After returning to Yiwei, she will have to get used to being enemies again.

Mother is a foreigner, so it is difficult for her to have friends here.

After picking up the cold gun, irrelevant "others" will become enemies.

She knew these things long before she entered the Wang Tomb.

"I just want to have someone who values ​​me more than anything else. It's good to have only one person." Baichengshuang said softly, facing Chunhu.

"Hmm... that's more about character." Lian Hongye made a silent note in his heart, and if the king really decided to choose a husband for the princess in the future, he would have a good idea of ​​how to recommend it.

"There will definitely be." Xue Yi shouted out with a smile.

Bai Chengshuang blushed and lowered her head. She didn't quite understand what shyness was, so she didn't know why she suddenly wanted to kick Xue Yi into the lake.However, Lian Hongye had already slapped him in time to call back his laughter.

"Princess, you can go now. Xue Yi will use the ground movement technique to take the first step. If he doesn't pay attention to teaching tonight, the princess will stab him to death. In addition, the princess should be careful when taking the "Cold Soul Spear Manual" back." some."

"Yes." Baichengshuang agreed with a smile.

In the 22nd year of Wuxuan, Qilao's mansion

On a cloudy day, the already remote house was even more gloomy. Several pots of shochu were brought out to help the owner dispel the winter chill.

The old man was drinking while looking at the chessboard. The person sitting opposite him was a young Emmy.

Chess moves very slowly.

One side is the commoner grand master, and the other side is the head of the three guards. For these two powerful figures in the Ju Kingdom, it is rare to spend some leisure time, so let it go slowly.

However, at some point, the old man put down the jug.

After two more chess moves, the old man leaned forward and approached the chessboard.

After a series of attacks and kills, the old man who had been bitterly hated for many years showed a look of shock, his old eyes were bare, and he stared firmly at the chessboard.

Hanging chess for a long time, re-shoot the next move.

Baichengshuang sighed.

"The junior is defeated." Bai Chengshuang said: "If the chess master is serious, the junior will be vulnerable."

At the end of the game, Qi Lao didn't relax his expression, but stared at the chessboard for a long time, as if he was replaying the chess game of this game. Finally, he raised his head and asked:
"How did you play this kind of chess?"

Baichengshuang replied: "This junior has also read a lot of chess records in recent years."

"No, you are—forget it," Qi Lao picked up the jug again, drank to the bottom, and then said to Bai Chengshuang, "I'm going to have a good time today."

"Then this junior can go to war soon." Bai Chengshuang smiled.

"tomorrow?"

"tomorrow."

"Come back early, if you want to learn this set of chess moves, the old minister can teach the princess."

"Yes."

Baichengshuang got up to bid farewell, and went out of the mansion, looking at the sky with a satisfied expression.

For today's chess game, she really prepared for a long time.

Old Chess loves the way of chess, but he seldom finds anyone to play chess. He has the false name of waiting for the edict, but he has not even played against her father and king in response to the edict.This matter was something that Baichengshuang could not figure out in the past.

It wasn't until the in-depth conversation with Mr. Qi six years ago that Bai Chengshuang gradually realized that Mr. Qi always felt that no one was worthy to fight him.

After all, no one can count how many famous chess players from the Central Plains, admiring the title of "Chess King", came to compete with Baicheng Jiong.

Chess masters will set up a game outside the city gate in advance, and after two or three games, they will kill the comers back. The reputation of "King of Chess" was made by Zhou Hui, but it is the chess master who has kept it to this day, and he has also given himself a chess addiction.In contrast, the mediocre hands in the city are really not worth seeing.

However, Qi Lao still can never look happy because there is only one opponent he really wants to play against, and that is her father.

But Qi Lao will not fight her father now, because he has not forgiven her father, because the current father is not worthy.

Therefore, Baichengshuang wanted to fulfill Qi Lao's dream.

During the six years, while fighting in all directions, she also collected many chess records of her father and king, and imitated them.

The "King of Chess" is well-known, and naturally there are many chess games that have been circulated. In addition, Baicheng Jiong and Qi Lao played chess in public in the market in the early years. There are still some old people who love chess in the city, and they keep the records of the two people's games recorded in those years.Baichengshuang found them one by one.

She has little interest in playing chess and has little chess talent.Fortunately, she is naturally calm and composed, so she can concentrate on everything she does.Relying on bluntly reciting the chess moves of her father, she has also gained an entry level in chess over the years, and she has a very Baicheng Jiong style of chess.

After the first year's military exercise and her father Baicheng Jiong's real game of chess, she felt that she had grasped some of the essence, so she came to play this game of chess with Master Chess.

As a result, she felt satisfied watching the chess master say "today is fast", and regained some of the joy of playing chess with her father when she was young.

So I couldn't help but smile at the sky.

It is of course very hard work to do these things in addition to busy work and martial arts training.

As for why she put so much effort for Master Qi——

There is no reason.

It's the only thing she can do for Old Ki, and that's what it's all about.

It's like walking into the Wang Tomb for the sake of my mother.

She is withdrawn by nature, so very few people can enter her life.

Therefore, she attaches great importance to each of them and can do her best for it.

The next day, she set off with the army, and her task was to protect the safety of her father at the Leizhou meeting.That day when she was in the city, she rushed to the sky without hesitation, killing herself with bruises all over her body, and fell from a high altitude into a coma.

On the way back to Hanye, she got news of Lian Hongye's distress from Mr. Qi before her old injury had healed. She disobeyed the emperor's order without hesitation and rushed to the front line to support.

On the bank of the Wanmu River, she saw Xue Yi being forced to hang his life by the patriarch of the barbarian tribe on the battlefield. She immediately charged and broke through the formation, facing an enemy whose strength was far stronger than her own.

Living in this way so far, she has not wavered, nor has she looked back.

However, Lian Hongye was still swallowed by the sea snake before her eyes, and Xue Yi was still pierced to the ground by the bloody blade.

Half of the three guards, and all the cronies she cultivated in the army, were all casualties in a war.

No matter how much you want to protect something...

"Even if it is a strong life, the fate is so lonely in the end."

After all, nothing can be held back.
