Chapter 195 Plucking the Heartstrings

A few days later.

Next to Chu Tianya, there was a mysterious woman with "strange clothes". She was inseparable from him all day long, and even went to Tianjifeng and entered the gunpowder factory.

Except for Bai Yu, no one has ever been to this place with Chu Tianya.

Later, the people in the cottage were sure that there was a "fits-on guard" around the master's side from then on, and he was still a woman.

This woman is so mysterious that no one has ever seen her face. Her whole body was covered in a huge black hood, and she also wore a black leather mask covering most of her face, revealing only a pair of dark eyes.

This pair of star-like eyes alone is enough to make many men think about it; the wide black can't cover her wonderful figure, and it is peerless between her hands and feet.

For the sudden emergence of such a mysterious woman beside the master, Zhaizhong speculated endlessly, but no one dared to ask. At the same time, everyone found that the two "dick maidservants" who had wandered around with the master were all gone.

Even Tang Ang and Anu were very surprised. When did the lord recruit such a peerless master or a woman to be a personal guard?

How "fitting" is it?

Usually walking on the road and on any occasion, this woman is always the closest to the master, even closer than Tang An and Anu; even at night, she stays in the master's room, and no one knows what happened between her and the master. At this time, Tang Ang and Anu can only guard outside the house.

Everyone didn't even know her name and didn't see her talk to anyone. Until once, Uncle He called her " rosefinch" in front of everyone, and she also agreed.

Chu Tianya didn't know why Uncle He called her that, but from then on, everyone finally knew how to "call" her.

"Wan Yan Daike is dead. Rosefinch is a good name. Wanyan Daike said to Chu Tianya, "Chu Tianya, I will always follow you. Unless you die, or I die."

"The rosefinch... is reborn in the bath of fire?" Chu Tianya thought so.

It was late at night, and there was a candle in Chu Tianya's room. He is washing his feet.

He took off the big black cloak and the rosefinch with the black leather mask, and washed Chu Tianya's feet as before. He was careful, gentle and meticulous.

Chu Tianya said that she did not imitate the past at all and served like a slave. But the rosefinch insisted, she said, she was happy!

"When a woman serves a man wholeheartedly, nothing can replace her inner peace and satisfaction." Suzaku said, "Such a very humble peace and satisfaction in the eyes of others is a luxury for the former Wanyan Daike. Whether in the face of Wanyan Zonghan or Chu Tianya, Wanyan Daike's heart can never be calm.

"In the end, I will most likely disappoint you." Chu Tianya said, "You know that the only thing I love in my heart is Xiao Linglong."

"It doesn't matter. I'm confident that you will fall in love with me sooner or later. I'm patient. The rosefinch smiled indifferently, "Now I just want to enjoy this peace and satisfaction quietly. Because I am already a rosefinch, I can do whatever I want to do, whether it is humble or noble. What others think has nothing to do with me.

Chu Tianya shook her head and said to herself that it was not so much the eyes and practices of others that made Wanyan Daike live in the shadow of Xiao Linglong; it was better to say that she had been competing with herself. She has always been acting in a one-man show in her own world, either sad or happy, but in fact, it has nothing to do with others. Even who she falls in love with is just her own thing, which has nothing to do with the person she is loved.

Since there are such lonely people in the world, her loneliness comes from the bone marrow and the deepest part of her soul!

"I'm curious, how can you practice such a strong martial arts at a young age and become the leader of the wolf's teeth?" Chu Tianya said, "It's not just me, even the old man can't figure out this problem. He said that unless he is a real genius and has been practicing martial arts since he was born, it is impossible to have such superb martial arts at your age!"

The rosefinch gently stroked the instep of Chu Tianya and sighed leisurely, "I would rather be an extremely ordinary or even a little ugly woman than a genius of martial arts, let alone a face like this..."

Chu Tianya looked at her subconsciously, and the cross knife mark on her left face had just formed a layer of blood scab and had not yet healed. Therefore, the wound pulled to the skin and flesh, which caused some slight distortions in her facial features. She was no longer the soft and beautiful appearance of the past, as if she had become another person, a person who had nothing to do with beauty.

"The old man said that he would find a way to cure your face." Chu Tianya said.

"No need." The rosefinch smiled and still poured hot water on the back of Chu Tianya's feet in a hurry. He said, "Most of the women in the world are very ordinary. They don't have a prominent family background and outstanding appearance, but many of them can harvest true love. There will be a man who loves her and spends with her a lifetime. Wanyan Daike, who once had a prominent birth, outstanding appearance and a rough life, is dead. Rosefinch just wants to have an ordinary life, ordinary love, and live the rest of his life quietly.

"Do you think you can make this wish come true?" Chu Tianya asked.

"Can." The rosefinch replied firmly, "Only by believing can you work hard; only by working hard can you succeed."

Chu Tianya took a breath, "The old man is right. Your wisdom is far better than your martial arts and appearance.

"This is the first time you sincerely praise me." The rosefinch raised his face and smiled at Chu Tianya, "I will remember this day."

"How do you know if I'm sincere or fake?" Chu Tianya smiled.

"Have you forgotten that I am best at camouflage and fraud?" The rosefinch smiled and said, "If someone wants to lie to me, it's a trick."

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "The essence of Central Plains culture is a rare way of confusion and moderation. In fact, there is no need to make everything clear. The happiest people in the world are often the forgetful fools.

"You're right." The rosefinch nodded gently, "There are some things that will give you a headache if you think too much, and it will hurt if you think through. That's why I decided not to be Wanyan Daike, who wears a mask and lives in the shadow of others, but to be this rosefinch who enjoys simplicity and tranquility. It's like at this moment, I'm with you, talking with my heart, which is the greatest happiness and satisfaction for the rosefinch.

"You are so lonely." Chu Tianya sighed gently, "And your loneliness has nothing to do with others. Even if there are thousands of people accompanying you, you are still lonely. Because you locked your heart and made it full of dust.

"I don't want to mention the past. At least from today on, the rosefinch is no longer lonely. She lowered her head, carefully wiped Chu Tianya's feet with a dry towel, and said, "Because there is already someone who can touch the heartstrings of the rosefinch."

At this moment, Chu Tianya felt that a certain string in his heart seemed to be touched.

Late at night, Chu Tianya lay with his arms on his headrest and couldn't sleep for a long time. Zhuque said that although she is willing to give everything for her persistence, including her life, unless Chu Tianya says that she loves her, she will never have any close relationship with him.

She arranged her one-man show in an orderly manner and step by step.

"Will I be moved by her?" Chu Tianya was asking himself, and there was no answer, and he did not dare to think about this answer.

Because he knows that true love actually has nothing to do with appearance, family background and background. It can neither be forced nor escaped. And the most touching and love in the world is "persistence"!

Rosefinch's persistence is simple and blind, hot and stubborn; the only thing Chu Tianya can do now is to let nature take its course.

The next day, Uncle He came down from Tianshu Peak again and once again picked out 17 masters from the martial arts hall.

It's strange to say that recently, the masters of the martial arts hall have always disappeared one after another. There are rumors that they have died, but this does not stop more martial arts practitioners from rushing to Qixingzhai. Perhaps it is because of many rumors that it adds a mysterious color to the lecture hall of Qixingzhai. But all those who are good at martial arts want to come to the popular "hall of martial arts" in the world to find out, and accept the invitation of He Bo, an old man who is unfathomable and strong in martial arts, to go to Tianshufeng and his party!

Let's not talk about the skills of these people. This courage alone is enough to satisfy Chu Tianya. He also believes that the old man must have his own way to select the real elite among these people and polish them into iron loyalty.

Before taking people up the mountain this time, He Bo once again made such a request to Chu Tianya - let the rosefinch go to Tianshu Peak with me!

It's just that this time it's not to kill her, but to let her, the former wolf-toothed leader, help him select elites and train dead men together!

Of course, another main purpose is to persuade the injured.

Uncle He said that the longer he gets along with him, the more he feels that Qiu hurts this young man is dangerous and should be killed; that also means that Qiu hurts is indeed a rare talent.

The rosefinch once said that she could persuade Qiu to hurt. If it hadn't been for her injury, Uncle He would have been in a hurry.

Chu Tianya agreed. Without any persuasion, the rosefinch went there happily. She said that she would make Chu Tianya's guard more excellent and loyal than Langya. Because the premise for her to achieve her wish is the absolute safety of Chu Tianya.

Although Chu Tianya knows that so far, whether it is Rosefinch or Wanyan Daike, everything she has done is just a one-man show. But Chu Tianya clearly felt a kind of uneasiness and even guilt.

"I don't love her, but she is willing to give everything for me..." Chu Tianya felt a little confused. "If it goes on like this, how can I face her and deal with the relationship with her? Flying Fox, do you want to continue to hide from me? What would you think if you knew about her? ...It's really a headache!"

In the next few days, Chu Tianya was soaked in the Tianjifeng Gunpowder Factory and studied with Yelu Yanchen how to polish the barrel of the first fire gun. Failure is always inevitable, and it once made Chu Tianya and Yelu Yanchen frustrated.

Sure enough, the book is used to hate less. Chu Tianya once thought that he, a person who was tired of playing with 54 pistols, had nothing to say about making a "semi-primitive" flin rifle. But when it's time to do it, I don't know what it means to be high and low.

In fact, not to mention the Song Dynasty, even if there are enough materials at hand in the 21st century, not everyone can make their own guns.

It seems that this matter is really urgent. Chu Tianya was ready to fail thousands of times and vowed to make the first flil gun of the Song Dynasty. As the rosefinch said, only when you believe in it can you work hard, and only when you work hard can you have a chance to succeed.

On this day, an uninvited guest came from the cottage, which brought a little trouble.

The matter was reported to Bai Shu first. Normally, he could deal with all the big and small things in the cottage, but he didn't even dare to specialize in this matter, so he ran to Tianji Peak to report to Chu Tianya and asked him to make a decision.

"How could this happen?" Chu Tianya was also a little surprised to hear this.

"It's really unexpected. But if you think about it carefully, it's reasonable. Bai Shu said.

Chu Tianya's heart lit up, "You mean, Pearl?"

"Exact" Bai Shu said, "Before, Xiaosheng borrowed Pearl's Hai Dongqing and sent false military information and news to the wolf teeth outside the mountain. In particular, it is impossible that the matter of 'the Song Dynasty's preparation for the Northern Expedition to recover the two states of the Shuo Dynasty' has attracted great attention from Wanyan Zonghan. Even if we let Pearl go out to avoid rumors, they would rather believe it than nothing.

"So, the State of Jin sent an envoy to Taiyuan and said that he wanted to 'take over Taiyuan'. Although they know that our Song Dynasty will definitely not give up Taiyuan City easily, they will also come to have a try. Chu Tianya said, "The reason is that they are here to find out my reality."

"That's right." Bai Shu nodded and said, "Before, when Wanyan Zong was trapped in Tokyo, he made an alliance under the city with the newly appointed officials. According to that covenant, Taiyuan will be ceded to Jin. However, at that time, there were also lords and kings in Taiyuan City who led the army and people to resist and never surrender. Finally, they threw away Wanyan Zonghan's armor and defeated Huanglong Valley. Normally, Wanyan Zonghan didn't have the face to ask for Taiyuan again. But those people in the court of the State of Jin don't think so. They would rather lose Wanyan Zonghan's face than try to take down Taiyuan with an empty-handed covenant.

"Jingqian, don't you see that the real women have used their usual techniques again." Chu Tianya frowned, "Just like the Zhang Jue Incident at the beginning, they are taking advantage of the topic to find excuses for the invasion in the south. At this time, if we promise to give up Taiyuan, it's best. They won the throat of the Central Plains without any effort. If we don't agree, the State of Jin will accuse us of violating the covenant and send me a crime on this reason!"

"The Lord is wise! I deeply agree!" Bai Yu's expression became serious. He said, "It's winter now, and the real women are already ready to move. Now a preemptive messenger has been sent to ask for Taiyuan. In addition to spying on the truth of our army and verifying the truth of the news sent by Haidongqing, another important purpose is to find an excuse to send troops!"

"So, it is inevitable for Jin Bing to go south again." Chu Tianya frowned deeply, "Our time is becoming more and more urgent."

"The top priority is how do we deal with the true messenger?" Bai Shu said, "Zhang Xiaochun, the governor of Taiyuan, sent a secret envoy to go up the mountain at night and reported this matter to the lord. It seems that he also thought that this matter was very important, and he did not dare to make his own choice.

Chu Tianya thought for a moment and raised his eyebrows, "I will go down the mountain in person and meet the envoy of the State of Jin!"

"Okay, I'd like to go with the master!" Bai Xun suddenly frowned and raised his eyebrows and exhaled. He said, "At this time of the year, the envoy sent by the State of Jin was still Yelu Yu to see, and the lord had been forced to receive and serve him. To this day, the lord is the lord of 100,000 and can cut off national affairs! Xiaosheng wants to take a look at the messenger of the Jin Kingdom again, how to face the lord!"

"What are you waiting for? Click 500 tigers and follow me down the mountain!" Chu Tianya's chest is also full of lofty and vigor!

Nowadays, it is different from the past. No matter what kind of virgin messenger you are, even if Wanyan Zonghan comes in person, Chu Tianya will not hide his head and pretend to be submissive as he did when he treated Yelu Yu.

Men's spirit and heroism are indeed subtle things.

Now, Chu Tianya is even looking forward to seeing the messenger of the State of Jin as soon as possible; and then do something in front of him that Tong Guan and Wang Yu did not dare to do at the beginning!

At present, Anu ordered 500 tigers and accompanied Chu Tianya down the mountain with Bai Yu to Taiyuan City. Tang Ang left to lead his troops to guard the Tianqian Pass. Wang Xun, Fu Xuan, Liu Ze and others rectified the soldiers and horses to deal with the war that may break out at any time!

At the same time, Chu Tianya also passed an order to Xishan Mengde, asking them to step up their preparations and be more vigilant.

When the messenger went south, the Jin people stretched out their first tentative claws; is the real attack still far away?

Taiyuan City became depressed and dull because of the sudden arrival of the Jurchen messenger. It was not easy to recover the angry city. At this moment, it is dead. From a distance, it looks like a gloomy resentful atmosphere over Taiyuan City, which is suffocating.

After all, the scene of the war is vivid to everyone. More people have been maimed or lost their loved ones in that war.

The golden man is an enemy, which has simply become an unbreakable truth in the minds of Taiyuan people.

When Chu Tianya led 500 tigers into the city, someone recognized him at first sight, and the people burst into a big and small exclamation. Soon, more and more people opened their closed doors and walked to the street, blocking Chu Tianya.

The people have only one purpose of doing this, that is, to "admonish" Chu Tianya not to let the golden dog succeed and rob Taiyuan City.

People in Taiyuan would rather die than be a subjugated slave!

And now, Chu Tianya has become the guardian city in their minds. Not only because Chu Tianya participated in the defense of Taiyuan last year and became very famous; more importantly, the people are tacitly aware that if they really want to resist the golden dog, the corrupt and incompetent Song court and the government are not so trustworthy. In contrast, Chu Tian, who gathered 100,000 people under his command and dared to pull Wanyan Zonghan down. Ya, he is definitely a trustworthy man!

"Taibao, on behalf of our villagers, you can tell the golden dog that we would rather lose this head than become slaves of the Golden Kingdom!" To this day, there are still people in Taiyuan who call Chu Tianya like this. This made him feel very kind.

Some people also said, "General, the golden dog is coming again. Taiyuan can only rely on your protection!"

"I'd rather die than drop the golden dog! - As long as the general says a word, we will follow you and fight with the golden dog!"

......

And so on, the people blocked Chu Tianya on the street of Taiyuan for more than an hour.

The heartstrings of Chu Tianya were touched again.

It's just that this time it's not because of a delicate jade hand, but because of the blood of a nation, and those unyielding souls floating over Taiyuan!
