The night was deep.

Lightning flashes and thunder, wind and rain howl.

Heavy rain poured down, watering the mountains and rivers of the wilderness, and flooding the land.

As far as the eye can see, it looks like a swamp.

Kick, Boom, Boom!

"Squeak———

A burst of heavy and hurried footsteps came from far and near, and with the sound of "squeak" opening the door, Huan Fei, who was as majestic as a tower, walked into the main hall with a war knife in his hand.

"Mr. Bonghyo, I've seen it all." Huan Fei said as he walked: "There are still seven servants and maids who survived in the entire Bufu, four men and three women, plus the four of us and the lord of the ferry battle and Li Zhi, a total of thirteen people. ”

"Thirteen?" Seeing Huan Fei returning, Guo Jia, who had been staying in the main hall, got up to greet him, and then frowned slightly when he heard the sound. Then he raised his hand and motioned for Huan Fei to sit down and rest for a while, and paced back and forth with a pensive face, as if he was troubled by something thorny, uncertain, and unable to sit still.

"Why is the gentleman upset?" After Huan Fei sat down, he asked in surprise.

Immediately, he didn't wait for Guo Jia to answer, and continued: "I searched the front and back courtyards and the east and west wings, and I didn't find the dead of the Xiahou family except for the corpse. Before, Xiahoudun led hundreds of dead soldiers to turn the Bufu up and down, and more than 20 Bufu servants and maids died, and now the seven or eight people who survived are very lucky. Now the Bufu Mansion is safe, with me Huan Fei guarding here, who dares to be presumptuous. Does the gentleman still have any concerns? ”

"No, General Flying Tiger, don't get me wrong, I don't doubt the general's intentions." Hearing Huan Fei's words, Guo Jia knew that he would be wrong, and mistakenly thought that he doubted his ability to do things.

Immediately, Guo Jia walked to Huan Fei and sat down, and said with a melancholy look in his eyes: "For some reason, I have always been a little uneasy tonight, and I always feel that I have ignored something. But I don't know what the problem is. Especially when the lord left the mansion just now, my heart became more and more uneasy, and I felt that something big must have happened, and it was a disaster. It's just that the lord has made up his mind, and he insists on avenging the Bu clan with a blade, so I wanted to admonish and dissuade him, but I swallowed the words back to my mouth, so I could only obey the lord's will and stay in the house to deal with the aftermath. ”

"I know all this, the lord wants to split Xiahoudun with his own hands. That's why I came back to protect my husband and Mrs. Trainer from another accident. Huan Fei continued.

"Hmm." Guo Jia nodded slightly, the expression on his face became more and more solemn, and he muttered: "Brother Xiahou led more than three hundred family dead soldiers to assassinate the lord, and they had been following us for nine days before. It wasn't until tonight that I decided to do it. It is not difficult to see from this that they have been planning for a long time and have been well planned. There are only two reasons to choose to do it tonight. One. They may have sensed that we had spotted them, forcing them to do it immediately. In both cases, they have the certainty of victory, and they are confident enough to be able to hit with one blow and succeed in the assassination.

However, so far. The Xiahou brothers missed one after another, not only did the family suffer heavy casualties, but Xiahou Yuan was also severely injured by the general and wanted to die. In the meantime, in addition to holding the Bu clan hostage to blackmail the lord, it was quite smooth. Almost everywhere fell into disadvantage, so that it was difficult to protect itself, and fled for his life in panic. ”

"Sir is too worried!" Huan Fei was a little impatient when he heard this, and interjected: "Feng Xiao is too worthy of the Xiahou family's dead soldiers and the Xiahou brothers!" The Xiahou brothers have good martial arts, but it's a pity that they met me and Zicheng, and they didn't kill them on the spot before, because they were too cunning, and they were lucky to survive. As for those dead soldiers in black, they seem to be strong and strong, but in fact they are vulnerable, and killing them is like slaughtering pigs and dogs! ”

Guo Jia shook his head again and again and said, "The general's words are wrong! It's not that the black-clothed dead soldiers are not strong, it's that you and General Zicheng are too strong, so it seems that they are incompetent and vulnerable. Even so, the appearance of these dead soldiers tonight is also remarkable, and they can be called elite divisions.

It must be known that the Xiahou family is a prestigious family that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and generations of military generals have doubled, and the dead soldiers of its family are naturally extraordinary. Take tonight's assassination as an example, these dead soldiers know that they are not the opponents of you and Zicheng, and they know that if they bump into your hands, they will be sent to death, but they have repeatedly defeated and fought, defeated but not retreated, retreated and did not flee. That's why tonight's battle is so protracted and so difficult. As long as they are not completely killed, they will never give up, and they will fight with us for most of the night, and until now, the battle has not ended.

Such a family death that is not afraid of death is really rare, and it is rare to find, which shows that the Xiahou family's hundreds of years of military generals are by no means idle! ”

After seeing Huan Fei's thoughtful expression, Guo Jia paused for a moment before continuing: "The black-clothed dead man is still so tenacious, and the two brothers Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan are not easy to do. These two people are Cao Cao's fierce generals, who have been on the battlefield for a long time, brave and brave, both civil and military, and have been the only generals under Cao Cao's account over the years.

However, the two brothers tonight are very strange, defeated repeatedly, not to mention the loss of the army, and they are so entangled. Xiahou Yuan was seriously injured and was unable to fight again, and Xiahou Yuan was continuously injured, and his own combat power dropped to fifty percent. But why didn't they run away?

If they wanted to escape, even if we had three powerful people in the world who were 10,000 enemies, we would not be able to prevent so many of them from absconding. But instead of fleeing, they fought from outside the wall to the main hall, and from the ferry where the main hall slowly retreated, they continued to fight and fight us. They have already run to the ferry, but they still do not take the opportunity to escape, why do they do this, and what do they want? ”

Speaking of this, Guo Jia's expression suddenly changed, his face turned pale, and he exclaimed: "It's not good! Ferry ———"

"Huh?" Huan Fei was taken aback by Guo Jia's exclamation, and hurriedly asked, "Fengxiao, what do you want to say?" What happened to the ferry? ”

Guo Jia, who was stunned, was awakened by Huan Fei's thick voice, and immediately pulled Huan Fei to run out, and said urgently: "Hurry, go quickly, let's go to the ferry!" ”

Huan Fei slowly followed Guo Jia to the door, and asked in amazement, "Fengxiao, what do you want to do?" The lord ordered me to guard the mansion, I was driven back by the lord before, why do I have to go to the ferry now? ”

Guo Jia forcefully pulled Huan, who was as strong as a bear, to fly out, and explained urgently: "What happened tonight is all an illusion, and the Xiahou brothers did not hesitate to use their bodies as bait to lure the lord to chase and kill, and their real intention was to lead the lord to the ferry. When the lord sets foot on the bridge to chase after him, they will destroy the bridge and kill the lord with the power of the flood! ”

"Ahh Are you saying that the Xiahou brothers wanted to lead the lord to the crossing bridge, and then destroy the crossing bridge, so that the lord fell into the flood? Huan Fei exclaimed.

"Exactly! Hurry to the ferry and stop the lord from going up the bridge to chase and kill, otherwise it's all over! Guo Jia replied casually.

"The lord is in danger?" In the midst of a deep groan, Huan Fei's face changed suddenly, and he strode like flying.

In an instant, Guo Jia was like a trapeze, he didn't need to exert any effort at all, just a tap of his toes and a two-foot fly, and he could be pulled by Huan Fei and rushed to the ferry.

"Boom, boom, boom———"

However, at the moment when Huan Fei and Guo Jia had just stepped out of the gate, there was a sudden loud bang in the direction of the ferry, so that the two of them could see fierce waves bursting out of the river hundreds of steps away from the ferry.

Suddenly, Huan Fei and Guo Jia suddenly stopped, staring at the churning and roaring waves in the distance with wide eyes and a dull expression, motionless, as if they had lost their souls in an instant, sluggish and speechless, lost their souls.

I don't know when, maybe it's a moment, maybe it's half an hour, or an hour, in short, the huge waves of the flood peak have long disappeared. But Huan Fei and Guo Jia still stood still, staring at the direction of the ferry with wide eyes, but there was nothing in their eyes, and they were sluggish.

"Hoo ———"

A gust of fragrant wind blew past Huan Fei and Guo Jia, but the two of them still didn't react, so that a delicate figure ran straight to the ferry in front of them, without attracting their attention.

"Husband, husband, husband! Husband, where are you, come out———"

Until there were bursts of sad cries on the bank of the ferry river, Guo Jia and Huan Fei's bodies suddenly moved, and they all ran towards the ferry port in unison.

Only then did they notice that the rain had stopped, the wind had disappeared, there was no lightning or thunder in the sky, a crescent moon hung in the sky, and the sky was full of stars.

And the person who cried and called by the ferry port was none other than the woman who became Li Li a few hours ago, and the foot trainer who lost her mother more than half an hour ago.

This is a woman who has gone from a young girl to a young woman overnight, from a child with a mother to an orphan, and now from a young woman to a widow.

There is no greater sorrow in the world than this, and the misfortune of fate is limited to this.

Joy, anger and sorrow overnight, grievances and hatred are empty.

How many crazy men and women in ancient and modern times, one moan and two tears.

In the crying and crying of the foot trainer, Huan Fei and Guo Jia walked to the shore step by step with an extremely heavy heart, and gently walked to Li Zhi, who was kneeling in the face of Jin Yi's battle knife.

The two of them didn't know how long Li Zhi had been kneeling here, but they saw that the expression on Li Zhi's face was neither sad nor joyful, his eyes were dull and silent, empty, and there were still dry tear stains on his cheeks.

"What a fish to die and break the net! One misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred, it's all our incompetence! Facing the moonlight, Guo Jia looked at the surging flood with self-reproach on his face, and groaned softly.

At this moment, Guo Jia felt extremely guilty and remorseful, and looked at the flood that had receded slightly with a sad expression, and all his thoughts were discouraged.

As early as when Li Li went out to chase and kill Xiahoudun with a knife, Guo Jia had a faint premonition, felt that something was wrong, and was very uneasy. Therefore, he followed Li Li to the outside of the gate, wanting to go over and see the battle at the ferry with his own eyes, so as to confirm the ominous premonition in his heart. But Li Li took care of his safety and did not let him accompany him, for fear of repeating the mistakes of the past again and stepping into the footsteps of the Bu clan.

Who would have thought that the previous parting would become a permanent secret, and the lord Li Li still did not escape from the trap carefully set by the Xiahou brothers after all, and was buried in the torrent.
