Nightfall Chapter 246: Boil the eagle
Volume Two, Winter Lake, Chapter 246, Boil the Eagle
Chapter 246 Boiling Eagle
Thousands of years ago, the deserted people were the masters of the northern prairie in mainland China, so to this day, this prairie is still called the wasteland. There are eagles on the grassland, so the deserted people are good at raising eagles, even if they are defeated by the Tang State, they are forced to go north. Moving to the extreme north and cold regions, Huangren still did not give up raising eagles. Sanctuary
Xiahou is a ridiculous person, and Tang is also a ridiculous person, so they are no strangers to raising eagles.
Looking at Tang, who was dressed in a tattered and filthy beggar-like coat on the meadow beside the forest in the distance, Xiahou suddenly remembered his experience of boiling an eagle when he was a child, and remembering that young and immature little eagle was crumbling on the iron frame. But he still refuses to lower the image of his stubborn head.
Returning south from the depths of the wasteland and killing thousands of miles all the way, he is always confident, thinking that he is tormenting Tang like an eagle, using the other party’s anger and hatred to keep the other party from closing their eyes, and loosing all the spirit. They are all consumed in the boring battle day after day.
Xiahou originally thought that he was about to succeed. He watched Tang's true qi with his own eyes, his spirit was getting tired, his body as strong as Jinshi became ordinary, he could be injured, and began to bleed. He thought that Tang's blood would be long. The journey was dry, and finally fell like the young eagle back then.
However, he did not expect that Tang did not fall, but he felt fatigue, weakness, and even a touch of fatigue in the deepest part of his body.
Could it be that you are the eagle that was boiled?
Xiahou kept coughing, and the blood kept overflowing from the fist stuck on his lips, but the expression on his face was still cold and calm, and his sunken eyes were as cold as ice.
Old age is not scary.
Whether in the grassland or on the rock wall by the Atami, only the eagle is the real eagle.
He put down his fist, took out the towel and wiped off the blood stains on the corners of his lips, and looked at Tang in the distance blankly and said, "Your perseverance surprised me a bit, but after all, it was just a surprise. You are not your teacher after all. , You can never threaten me until you pass that threshold."
Tang looked down at the long grass under his feet that was lit by his own blood.
Continuous battles left him severely injured. The seemingly humble Tang Army cavalry brought him a lot of trouble under the strong military discipline and tactical organization. As the qi in the body gradually dried up, they seemed indestructible. The body finally bleeds under those swords and arrows.
The demon sect has already withered, and his demon sect walks around the world more like a lonely man. Not to mention that compared with the countless Taoists in the Xiling Temple, even compared with the traitor Xiahou, he appears to be so weak. ""
In a sense, the demon sect in the world today is him.
He is the Demon Sect.
He is the last spirit and pride of the Demon Sect, so he can't fall.
So even if he was seriously injured and could not see any hope, he still fought silently with He Xiahou and thousands of Datang cavalry until this moment, and fought under Tuyang City.
Tang raised his head, looked at Xiahou among the numerous cavalry guards, and said, "Look at your body that seems strong but actually looks like rotten wood. Ask your heart that seems strong but is actually like a mud. I really can't threaten you, why would you turn around and say these things to me at this time?"
Xiahou was silent for a long time, and then said: "You can't follow me back to Chang'an. The Central Plains is a world surrounded by Haotian divine glory, and the sky can't tolerate you, so what can you do?"
As the last and most powerful remnant of the Demon Sect, Tang can live freely on the wasteland and face Ye Su across the peak, but he knows very well that if he really went to the Central Plains, he would definitely face Xiling. The endless pursuit and killing of the temple powerhouses is a dead end after all.
"I really can't enter the Central Plains."
Tang looked at Tuyang City not far away and said: "I didn't even dare to enter that city, but I have hurt you. I made you weak and nervous, then I know you are destined to die. ."
Xiahou said: "Why say these meaningless words."
"I won’t do things that don’t make sense, and I won’t say things that don’t make sense. I am definitely not the only person in the world who wants to kill you. When you leave the barracks and return to Chang’an City, or when you return to old age , The evil spirits in the steamer, the little ghosts on the road to death, will come behind you and demand your life. Those evil spirits will be grateful to me for chasing you all the way, and I will also be grateful to those evil spirits for chasing you to death."
Tang finally nodded to Xiahou and said: "I wish you a happy old age and a wonderful death."
After saying this, he turned and left the meadow and disappeared into the forest.
Xiahou silently looked at the deserted meadows and the mountains and forests gently moved by the summer wind. Without saying anything, he lightly raised the rein and drove towards Tuyang City.
The wind blowing from the wasteland moved the mountains and forests, the deep grass, the military flag at the head of Tuyang City, and the hair exposed at the edge of his helmet and the gray hair.
Since ancient times, a famous general is like a beauty, and he is not allowed to see white heads in the world, but his head is already white. (《》)

……
The new house beside Yanming Lake welcomed the first batch of guests.
Her Royal Highness Li Yu, her stepson, and Situ Yilan.
Ning Que welcomes Situ Yilan's arrival very much. He has no opinion on the poor Prince Xiaoman, but he can't help feeling a little troublesome for the visit of Princess Datang.
The relationship between him and Li Yu is good, but he knows that she will bring him trouble.
Sure enough, when only him and Li Yu were left in the quiet study room, trouble came.
Outside the carved window of the study, there are a few old trees that shade the summer, and the breeze is pleasant. Even the cicadas in the woods are not tiresome.
Li Yu holding a bowl of herbal tea, looking at the faintly visible lake view outside the window, smiled and said: "The quieter the cicadas are. This house is really good. No wonder you, a miser, are willing to spend so much money."
Ning Que sighed, thinking that he really wanted to start from here?
He walked to Li Yu's side and said, "Thank you for the big trees sent by Your Highness."
The old trees in the house by the Yanming Lake are all from Li Yu’s imperial fief. These trees are of great value. The cost of transporting them out of the mountain and then into Chang’an City is a terrible figure. The most important thing is that there are some. Rare and old trees, even the rich cannot buy them.
Ning Que is indeed a person of great status now, but Li Yu is a majestic Princess of the Tang Dynasty. Where there is a need to please him, this kind of heavy gift naturally requires a return.
"After all, these are wild things and not worth much."
Li Yu walked to the display shelf in the study and looked at the antiques on the shelf. His expression changed slightly. He said with a chuckle, "I asked my father when I was a child, but he said he gave it to her. I want to come back. I didn't expect to see it in your study now."
Ning Que looked at the brush wash made of ashlar, like Moyu, and said, "If you like it, take it."
Li Yuwei mocked and said: "Why do I want what she gave you."
In Chang'an City, the only ones who dared to call the Empress Empress for her were Li Yu's brother and sister.
Of course, this can only be a private title.
Obviously, Li Yu didn't care about letting Ning Que see his true attitude towards the queen.
Ning Que did not answer.
Li Yu looked at him with a smile and said, "I heard that you often enter the palace recently, so I must know her very well?"
Ning Que said, "I am more familiar with it than before."
Li Yu asked: "What kind of person do you think she is?"
Ning Que answered directly: "I don't know."
After thinking about it for a while, Li Yu laughed at himself and said: "I have been doing the right thing with her for so many years, but I have not been able to see exactly what she is thinking, let alone you."
Ning Que shook his head and said, "Why think so much."
Li Yu drank the herbal tea in his sip, frowned, but smiled and said, "It's delicious, this is mulberry tea made by Sangsang? I heard she said it several times, but it was the first time. Drink it."
Listening to His Royal Highness talking about the short stories of the parents, Ning Que suddenly felt relaxed a lot, ready to explain the method of mulberry tea, and emphasized that this was his own invention.
However, he did not expect that Li Yu's next sentence came extremely quickly.
The atmosphere turns down, or up.
"My idea is very simple, you know."
Li Yu looked at Ning Que's eyes calmly and persistently.
Ning Que didn't avoid her gaze, and said, "I told you my thoughts too."
Li Yu said: "I know you have some problems with the emperor."
Ning Que said: "I admit, but the problem can always be solved, and I don't need to care about them."
"I don't think that after you kill Huang Xing and Yu Shuizhu, you can talk to Xiahou very happily, and let the respected and respected generals of the military think you are kind and harmless."
Li Yu said: "These problems cannot be solved. Maybe you really don't need to care about them, but if you want to continue to do something, you have to care."
Ning Que said: "Of course, I will not admit these things your Highness said. As for the little friction between me and General Xiahou, I believe it will not last too long."
"Everyone knows that Xiahou is the queen's empress."
Li Yu said: "The Empress Empress keeps beating you now, so naturally I don't want the dispute between Xiahou and the Academy to continue to expand, but are you willing?"
Ning Que thought to myself that I also knew that Empress Empress was Xiahou's sister.
The elder brother has already confessed, he certainly will not reveal this big secret in front of Li Yu.
Li Yu said: "If the enmity between you and Xiahou is only those conflicts on the wasteland, now that Mr. Da has set the tone, I hope you are still willing to do it."
Ning Que frowned slightly, wondering why she chose to stand with the queen.
Li Yu whispered: "Only some young generals in the army are willing to be loyal to me. Hua Shanyue leads the Hebei county army. The accumulation of military service is too difficult. With his current qualifications, there is no way to succeed in the northeast army. The position of Xiahou, but since Xiahou is willing to resign and return to the old, it is always a good thing for me, so I don’t want other things to interfere with this process."
This explanation is very **, so it is very sincere, even Ning Que can't help being surprised.
After a while, he sighed and said, "This kind of thing is really boring."
Li Yuwei mocked and said: "As expected to be a student of the Master, even the throne of the Tang Empire feels boring."
Ning Que said: "I told you before, don’t pay too much attention to the attitude of a person who has entered the world in my academy. There are yellow poplars in the temple, and the old generals of Xu Shi in the army. Whether the dragon chair is passed to your brother or the prince born to the empress empress is the opinion of these people after all."
Li Yu looked at him quietly and suddenly said, "But have you ever thought about it, whether it is the father or the master, or the old generals in the army, they will always leave the day?"
"Why did the Academy want you to join the world? Why did the emperor take you so seriously? Why did Xu Shi be so wary of you? In fact, they are all based on the same reason."
"No one can resist Haotian's fate wheel. With the passage of time, Datang will eventually lose them. Some people worry that you will become an evil eagle without hunters suppressing them and harm the world after they pass away. And the husband and the father. It is silent, protecting you, tormenting you and polishing you, wanting you to turn from a young eagle to an eagle, and guarding the Tang without them."
