Chapter 56 Vertical and Horizontal

The next morning, the sun was fine. A group of sparrows jumped and chirping at the window. Chu Tianya slept until he woke up naturally and felt that his spirit had recovered well.

He tried to get out of bed and walk. Although his chest still had a strong pain, he was not as weak as yesterday. After a few steps, although it was a little staggering, the situation was better than the doctor expected and what he thought.

Chu Tianya is slightly happy. It seems that the foundation of this pair of body is not bad now. He is young and recovers quickly after a little injury. At this time, it is at a juke. If you can only stay, it will be a great tragedy.

Just as he was about to go out to breathe the fresh morning air, someone pushed the door in.

It's Xiao Linglong.

Seeing Chu Tianya standing in the room, Xiao Linglong was slightly surprised, "Wake up so early? Can you get out of bed?"

"Yes!" Chu Tianya nodded and smiled, "I'm a person who can't sit still. I slept in the room for a few days and was stuffy. I want to walk outside.

"Come on, I'll help you." Xiao Linglong came forward and naturally stretched out her hand to hold Chu Tianya's elbow.

Chu Tianya couldn't help laughing, "You only have one arm left, and you still help me?"

This is the first "intimate contact" between the two. Chu Tianya was held by her arm, with a little warm feeling, and there was an inexplicable throb in her heart.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go!" Xiao Linglong's expression was not different. She secretly pulled Chu Tianya and wanted to help him out.

"Okay!" Chu Tianya smiled and slowly walked out of the room with her.

Outside the house, there are young and strong warriors gathered together to practice boxing sticks. The woman raised the fire to make breakfast, and the smoke curled around. The children played in the meadow and chased the birds foraging.

There is a red sun in the east, and the mountains are covered with clouds and fog. In the early morning, a school of pastoral joy is full of vitality.

"This is a paradise." Chu Tianya took a deep breath of fresh air and smiled and said, "If one day I repel the golden soldiers, I will come here to build a house with Brother Meng Qi to plough the field next to the next door, and the sunrise and sunset. Ask a daughter-in-law to give birth to a bunch of babies, and the little life will go on.

Xiao Linglong couldn't help laughing, "Can you do it?"

"Why not?"

Chu Tianya squeezed his lips, looked at the distant mountains, and said, "Second Brother Jiao said that the Chu brothers are young, but they are knowledgeable and ambitious, and they are also wise and brave. They have a little demeanor of pre-Qin. A person like you can't stand loneliness. Fang Jin is in troubled times, and it is the time for you to gallop and use your ambition. Anyone can be happy in the countryside. You... are absolutely impossible!"

Chu Tianya couldn't help but be stunned, "Brother Jiao evaluates me like this?"

Xiao Linglong turned her head to look at Chu Tianya and said, "Don't you think you are such a person?"

"I don't think so." Chu Tianya shook his head and said indifferently, "What I have done is just to be able to live and live better. I don't want to be a short-lived ghost, and I don't want to be a subjugated slave. That's all."

Xiao Linglong smiled slightly and turned her face to be silent.

The morning glow reflected on her face, like a poem.

"The world is like this, no one has a choice." Xiao Linglong stared at the distance and said leisurely, "If it weren't for the war, I would still be the carefree and arrogant Princess Flying Fox. Study martial arts in spring and visit the lake in summer, enjoy snow in winter in autumn, no joys and sorrows, and no worries. Maybe one day I will marry a royal relative, and it will be the same for the rest of my life. But overnight, all the family members in our country were lost, and they wandered helplessly all over the world. In the end, they fell into thieves. These things are all things I never dreamed of before - can I choose?"

"...It's really involuntarily." Chu Tianya sighed and said, "How many people in the world can really control their own destiny? In the face of the power of nature and the general trend, everyone is equally humble. Princess Xiao, you have experienced the hatred of the destruction of the country and the death of your family, and you should be able to understand why I am so eager to fight against the real woman. So I hope that in the future, we will not quarrel and quarrel about topics such as the Liao and Song people. Because whether it is a Liao people or a Song people, they are all people. Everyone wants to live. We are all victims of this war, just to survive.

Xiao Linglong nodded silently.

At this moment, he ran slowly in front of him, a black horse in black, Jiao Wentong.

Chu Tianya saw it from afar and couldn't help laughing, "It's so dark! If you meet Brother Jiao in the middle of the night, you will not see him.

A child-like smile appeared on Xiao Linglong's face, "I told him that he would whip you with a big horse whip!"

Chu Tianya looked sideways at Xiao Linglong, and it was rare to see her smile so easily and brightly

"Second brother!" Xiao Linglong loosened Chu Tianya's arm and greeted him.

"Morning!" Jiao Wentong turned over and jumped off the horse and laughed like a bell, "Brother Chu can get out of bed and walk around? You are in good health!"

"The second brother went out to ride and shoot again in the early morning?" Xiao Linglong took over Ma Jiang and patted the big dark horse on the cheek and said to it like an old friend, "Cangyun, Cangyun, is the second brother very heavy that you can't breathe? Why don't you follow me in the future? I will definitely cherish you!"

"You girl!" Jiao Wentong laughed and said, "Cang Yun has been following me for many years. Can you provoke me in a few words?"

Xiao Linglong smiled and said, "Second brother, I'll ride a horse for a while!"

"You hurt your arm, okay?" Chu Tianya was a little worried.

"She is good at riding! - Go!" Jiao Wentong threw the whip to Xiao Linglong carelessly. Xiao Linglong took it, turned over and rode on the horse with one hand, holding the saddle lightly and deftly, and whipped the horse to run away.

"This girl, hehe!" Jiao Wentong shook his head and smiled, and his pity was overflowing.

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Brother Jiao, Princess Xiao will only talk and laugh so easily in front of you. Usually, she is more serious and indifferent.

Jiao Wentong stroked his long and said, "After getting along with each other for a long time, you will find that in fact, Princess Xiao is a very warm and cheerful person. It's just that the collapse of the country and the family are wandering, no matter who it happens to, it will also make people's temperament extreme. When Princess Xiao was chased by Jin Bing and fled from the north, it was by chance that I rescued her halfway and took her to Qixing Mountain to settle down. I was very close to her at first sight. Although the same leaders in the cottage are usually called brothers and sisters, their feelings are like father and daughter. I also taught her some boxing and flying knife kung fu, so I also have a master and apprentice.

"So it is." Chu Tianya nodded, "No wonder she came to Qingyunbao on this trip. When she was in trouble, she only asked Brother Jiao to help. She dared to treat Brother Jiao as her father and brother."

"hoho!" Jiao Wentong smiled cheerfully, "This girl is smart! She knew that I had always had the problem of protecting my shortcomings, and I would never allow outsiders to bully my copycats, let alone allow someone to force Princess Xiao to do such a thing. Moreover, I have always hated Zhang's one-eyed person, but because of my eldest brother's love, I have never interfered in the affairs of Xishan. It is also because of this that he has been contributing to the arrogance of one-eyed eyes. He dares to bully my fifth sister, which is really looking for his own death! - But this matter can't be known to the eldest brother. The eldest brother had an old relationship with Zhang One-eyed. Because of the affection, it was not easy for me to do it. This time, it's cut first and then played. After I go back, I have to apologize to my eldest brother.

"No wonder she only invited Second Brother Jiao and didn't dare to tell the big village owner. However, Xishan is so far away from Taihang, how did Brother Jiao arrive in a very short time? Did you two have an appointment for a long time? Chu Tianya was puzzled.

"Haha!" Jiao Wentong stroked his head and smiled, "Ada has practiced unparalleled kung fu in the world, and he travels a hundred miles a day. This time, he was ordered to be in danger and rushed to Qixing Mountain in the middle of the night to report to me until he ran to the internal injury and spit blood. After I got the letter, I couldn't gather the soldiers in a hurry, so I had to come alone. The clouds are a treasure that travels thousands of miles a day, walking through the mountains and rivers like walking on the flat ground. It's only Bailishan Road, what's the matter!"

Chu Tianya couldn't help but be convinced and smiled, "It seems that Princess Xiao has a long thought in his heart. She dared to follow Xishan, relying on Jiao Erge, the big backer.

"Haha!" Jiao Wentong laughed and said, "This girl is strong and likes to make trouble; I often deal with the aftermath for her. This time, it has spoiled her!"

Chu Tianya nodded with a smile and said to himself that Jiao Wentong and Xiao Linglong really looked like a pair of loving father and stubborn sons.

"Brother Chu, I have something to discuss with you." Jiao Wentong suddenly said.

"Second Brother Jiao, please speak."

"It's about the joint anti-gold alliance." Jiao Wentong's expression was a little more serious. He stroked his long bead and said thoughtfully, "I don't know where Brother Chu got the news. But someone thought that even if there was no real evidence for such a thing, he would rather believe it or not. Therefore, it has long been known that the big brother will be with the people of Taihang Jiushan, waiting for punishment at any time, ready to guard Taiyuan and fight against the golden soldiers! - I just don't know when the golden soldiers will go south; when will we send troops to help in the war?"

Chu Tianya frowned and said, "To be honest, at this time, the envoy of the State of Jin was in Taiyuan City, coming to discuss the friendship between the two countries. On the surface, the talks were related to the war and major events between Song and Jin; but in fact, Chu secretly thought that the State of Jin had already prepared for the invasion of the south. The reason why I haven't moved for a long time is just waiting for the sky. When the wind is dense and the rivers are frozen, the golden soldiers will go south. These days, I have been observing the envoy of the State of Jin, and what he has done is all about procrastinating time - the purpose is to paralyze my court of the Song Dynasty and win time for the southern invasion of the State of Jin!"

"So that's it, someone knows!" Jiao Wentong frowned and said in a low voice, "In this way, this weather is the horn of the battle. When the weather turns sharp and the weather is cold, and when the war will start! - In this way, Jiao knows in his heart. When I go back to the mountain, I will rectify the people and prepare for the battle at any time!"

Chu Tianya was quite gratified and overjoyed. He said sincerely, "There are second brother Jiao and the heroes of Qixing Mountain to help preside over the overall situation. How can you be afraid of the golden dog!"

Jiao Wentong laughed and said, "I have agreed with the owner of Mengzhai. We must abandon the view of the door, give up the new hatred and old hatred, unify Xishan and Taihang Zhai, and work together to fight against gold in a very short time. However, all I Taixing Jiushan, Xishan 18zhai, etc. can only be the auxiliary force to act according to your orders; Brother Chu, you are the core figure who is in charge of the important things and leading the overall situation. I can't say. How to allocate and act at that time will have to be arranged by the Chu brothers in the middle.

"This..." Chu Tianya was a little surprised for a moment. "The boy doesn't learn, has no skills, and he doesn't know the military machine. How can he be the master? Let's ask Brother Jiao or the owner of the village of Guizhai to be the master!"

"Brother Chu, you don't have to be humble." Jiao Wentong stared at Chu Tianya and said with deep meaning, "It's not that I want to force others to force you to be the master. But the current situation is to take Taiyuan City and the Shengjie Army as the core. We and all the village rebels can only help from the side. Brother Chu, you are wise and brave. Throughout the overall situation, you know the benefits, and you can weigh the pros and cons. In addition, Taihang and Xishan have a lot of friendship with you. I would like to listen to your orders. If you want one person to take a picture of the whole situation - who are you?
