Chapter 288

"who are you?"

The man smiled faintly, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said, "Passers-by."

"Blood flowed here in Loulan a few days ago. There are still a large number of vultures gathered in the mass grave at the back of the mountain. All the forces in the desert are gathered, and a big war is about to break out. You, a passer-by, are a little too bold to walk in like this. .”

"What does it have to do with me, generals?" The man smiled, his eyes flickered with an unconcealable sharpness, and the corners of his mouth were gently pulled away, revealing a row of white teeth, and continued: "Besides, everyone has to die. The life and death of the people in Loulan seems to have nothing to do with me."

Qing Xia frowned slightly, her eyes flicked back and forth on the man's body, her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, she finally stood up, opened the curtain of the big tent with a hula, and walked out.

The man's eyes were warm, he looked forward with a smile, slowly picked up the teacup, and took a sip.

The current situation is very critical. On the surface, it was Qingxia who attracted all the enemies, restrained their forces, made them trapped in Loulan without seeing the reality, and opened up a way for Chu to leave and return to Chu.But in fact, Qingxia's army was besieged here by various forces. If it hadn't occupied the location of Loulan City, it might have been carved up and eroded by enemies several times its size.

And the most worrying thing is, if Chu Li knew that he was besieged here, would he come here regardless of the danger?
She can fight alone for Chu Li, hold back the footsteps of all the troops and open up a way for him, so will he give up the hope of escape because of himself, and foolishly throw himself into a dead end?

Qing Xia stood in the camp and looked at the full moon in the sky, quietly waiting for the return of the seventh batch of scouts.However, after the drum was beaten three times, there was still no sound of a horse's hoof. She knew that the current Loulan City had become a besieged city that could not be entered but could not be exited.

Slight footsteps sounded behind him, Qingxia thought it was Song Yang who came to persuade him to go back to rest, and said in a slightly tired voice: "You go back first, I don't want to sleep yet."

A warm cloak was suddenly draped over her shoulders, the tip of Qing Xia's nose moved slightly, her heart seemed to be pinched in an instant, the faint fragrance of Chuanbei in the dream of wandering all night floated in the air, Like willows swaying and fluttering in early spring, the pale woman turned her head and looked at the person with wide eyes.

The man smiled slightly, he didn't seem to notice Qing Xia's gaffe, he just said with a smile: "It's autumn, the night in the desert is the coldest, be careful, General."

Qing Xia was a little dazed, her expression changed from shock, joy, and self-control to indifference, disappointment, and a hint of self-mockery.

"Loulan has become an isolated city. It is easy for you to come in, but it may be difficult to go out again."

The man smiled, his smile was gentle, and his eyes were as gentle as the vast and calm sea. He lifted his robe and sat on the stone platform next to Qing Xia, leaning on the ancient railing that had experienced thousands of years of wind and rain, and said softly: "Then don't you?" Go out, wait until the fighting subsides, it’s not too late to leave.”

Qingxia originally wanted to tell him that no one in this city might survive after the war, but seeing his confident appearance, she suddenly realized that what she said next might be too stupid, so she kept silent, in front of him. sat down next to him.

"Is there something on your mind, girl?"

Qing Xia didn't answer either, she just quietly raised her head and looked at the stars above.The man didn't take it seriously, but continued to say: "I just did divination in the tent and found that the Pojun star has shifted, and the star that was supposed to rule Hoshino three years later has come to an end today. The external force interferes with the orbit of the stars, which really makes me puzzled."

Qing Xia raised his eyes slightly, and responded lightly: "Is that so? Young master is young, but unexpectedly he is a master of divination."

"Don't dare, I only know a little bit about it." The man smiled and said: "Every star in the sky corresponds to the destiny below. They all have their own destiny stars, and the orbits of the stars have already been predetermined, and everything is just developing in accordance with the general trend."

"Oh? According to the young master, everything in the world has been predetermined, no matter how hard you try, you can't change it?"

"Not necessarily," the man in Tsing Yi said with a smile: "Although fate is irreversible, after looking at the map of stars and fields for many years, I found that there are still exceptions. For example, Hu Hai, the second emperor of Qin Dynasty, changed the death star into Zhaoming 300 years ago. The emperor has different masters, the star map is in chaos, and there will be no peace for a thousand years. Eight years ago, in the harem of Southern Chu, a star was born, and the star map was disrupted again. It can be seen that even though the manpower is small, there is still a general trend of change possible."

Qing Xia frowned, turned her head suddenly, her eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, but she saw the man smiling and looking at her, without any change in expression.

"Qin II occupies the fate of the emperor, and there will be no future generations of heroes in the world. His success alone is at the price of the mediocrity of countless heroes. On the other hand, the girl is a woman who is appointed as a marquis and worships the minister, and leads the army. , It also changed the fate of too many people, if it weren't for the girl, Qin Zhixiang and the Great Emperor of Southern Chu would definitely not be in charge of Northern Qin now, so there is no need to fall into such a dangerous situation."

"Who the hell are you?"

Qing Xia's eyes became sharper, with a hint of wit, the man smiled loudly and said: "I have already said, I am just a passerby, I happened to pass by this place at this time, and I will disappear here soon, I happened to find that the balance in the girl's heart was swinging from side to side, so I came here to give some advice."

Qing Xia raised his eyebrows lightly, motioning him to continue talking, the man said gently: "Fortune in the world is changeable, the stars and fields are constantly changing, but all changes are inseparable, just like the ten bends of a long river, it will eventually go east, and the turning point of hundreds of rivers will eventually lead to a vast ocean. Wherever it deflects, it will eventually be attributed to where, and everything will be submerged in the tide of history, including many things."

The man suddenly smiled, and said with calm eyes: "The girl may not understand all that I said today, but one day in the future, she will understand. I only hope that if there is a chance in the future, I can restore everything to the present. In history, the girl can push the boat along the river and give future generations a chance to make contributions.”

The man's green shirt was blown up by the strong wind, he stood up, smiled softly, his clothes were upright, his ink hair was flying, and said: "I have bothered you for a long time, I should leave now, I haven't smelled the wind in the desert for many years, really Miss this taste."

The man looked young, but he seemed to have gone through so many vicissitudes when he spoke. Qing Xia stared at him, and suddenly said: "Can you go out?"

The man nodded and said, "Miss, do you have something to take out?"

Qing Xia looked at this strange man in front of her, for some reason, but deeply believed that he must have a way to leave, bit her lips, pondered for a while and finally nodded and said: "I want you to help me stop a man, tell him I have already returned to Nanchu, this is just a cover, saying that I am waiting for him in Shengdu, and must come back alive to see me."

The green-robed man narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a light smile: "Now the girl is besieged on all sides, and she is under the enemy's back. Within three days, she will definitely be attacked by the enemy. From what I see, the girl can't survive ten days at all. Without reinforcements, this This desert is where the girl is buried."

Qing Xia didn't answer his words, but asked stubbornly: "Can you do it?"

The man looked into Qing Xia's bright eyes, and after a while, he suddenly chuckled, stretched out his hand, and said, "Where's the token? Without the token, he might not believe me."

Qing Xia took a deep breath, and untied an unpretentious blue jade pendant from her waist, tied with complicated green and white knots, on the jade pendant were engraved with two graceful small seal characters, with complicated strokes, faintly glowing in the moonlight. A hint of coolness.The man looked down and put it in his arms without saying a word.

"If you can really go out, can you take another person away?"

The man joked: "The girl doesn't want to go with her, does she?"

Qing Xia turned around and walked towards the big tent, the man followed behind, walking all the way, suddenly heard a burst of singing like an oriole, Qing Xia stood outside the tent and coughed softly, the singing stopped, a girl in red all over Immediately poked his head out, looked at Qing Xia with a smile on his face and said: "General, are you here?"

Qing Xia shoved her hand away in embarrassment, pointed at the man behind her, and said, "This is..." Just now when she said this, she suddenly remembered that she didn't know the man's name, and looked back with a strange look in her eyes.

The man understood, and hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and said, "My surname is Liang."

Qing Xia nodded and said: "This is Mr. Liang, he will take you out of Loulan and find your clansmen."

Aluobei was shocked, frowned, stepped forward and grabbed Qing Xia's arm, and shouted: "No, I can't leave you alone."

Qingxia frowned slightly, and suddenly took Aluobei's hand and said: "You come with me." Then, she pulled her into the big tent, and after a while, the two came out together, Aluobei With a flushed face, Qing Xia said to Mr. Liang nonchalantly: "I'll get rid of you."

"do not worry."

The white-haired old man led the camel and walked over slowly, and stood at a distance. Mr. Liang walked a few steps, then suddenly turned around, and said to Qing Xia with a light smile: "The dead are gone, and the past is irreplaceable." Chase, the girl has worked hard all her life, so she should cherish the person in front of her."

Qing Xia watched A Luo Bei and this short-lived Young Master Liang gradually go away, finally raised her head, and breathed a deep sigh of relief.

She has already done everything, what she can do, what she cannot do, what she should do, and what she cannot do. Let her hold the group of tigers and wolves here and let Chu Li go east.
