Chapter 11:
"Ge/gege" — big brother"Bóbo" — father’s elder brother; uncle[1] "Zǐshí" — 11 pm-1 am (in the system of two-hour subdivisions used in forr tis)
Li Luo was riding a snow white horse . From ti to ti his horse would turn around and look at Qin Yu’s black horse, which was to the left .
That night, he had called out to Qin Yu several tis, but he still didn’t respond to him even once, so he had fallen asleep unconsciously . Since that day Qin Yu had not spoken to him for two months, and every ti he saw him, his face imdiately beca ice cold .
Throughout these two months, led by Qin Yu, the Xiang Bei Army went south of Ling City and captured two other cities . Although those cities’ protection wasn’t as good as Ling City’s, the speed, with which they captured them, was enough to make one be speechless .
anwhile, Nangong Ao imdiately led Xiang Nan Army to Qin Yu’s location after he heard the news of his victory . Once they joined together they proceeded to Xirong City and when they arrived, they attacked it .
Nangong Ao and Qin Yu struck from two sides and once they were done with it, they advanced towards Bian Capital City’s direction .
The further the south they went the lusher the greenery beca and the richer the cities were .
A day after the symbolic attack, they pretended to being unable to penetrate its defences and bypassed the Jing Wang fiefdom, which was one of their secret supports . Qin Yu and the others walked for another three days, and finally reached their next target—Yunxi City .
A city situated in Jiangnan river area with developed waterways and thriving trades . It was brightly lit both day and night, which made it a very bustling scene .
However, nothing was forever . When the forces of 300 . 000 troops arrived in the front of city gates, the lively atmosphere was shattered right away, just like the reflection of the moon in a disturbed lake . The commoners in the city closed their doors one after the other, while the rchants who had co to do business in Yunxi city shivered inside their booked rooms . There were also many people, who couldn’t find a place to stay, so they could only cower in a street corner, waiting the outco, feeling anxious and frightened .
The city gate was tightly closed and on top of city walls were situated soldiers, who vigilantly watched the army at the border of the city .
But little did they know that the protagonist, who was the leader of these 300 . 000 troops, had long ago sneaked into the city and at this mont was hiding in an empty house, waiting for the night to arrive .
Li Luo was quietly sitting on a stone bench that had been wiped clean by a soldier and observed the very quiet Qin Yu .
He didn’t know what Qin Yu was angry about, but more than two months had gone by and he unexpectedly still hadn’t cald down, so Li Luo didn’t know what to do .
Suddenly the sound of light knocks resounded in the room from outside the wooden door of the house .
Qin Yu imdiately clenched the sword on his side, looking sharply towards the door . Two soldiers dressed up as commoners, looked murderously at the door as they walked quietly towards it and slowly pulled out their daggers .
"Who?"
"Mucheng gege, this is , why are you still not opening the door . " The low and soft voice of woman sounded from outside, like a spring breeze in March .
Li Luo and Qin Yu glanced at each other, their faces showing a trace of surprise .
Li Luo stood up, he walked two steps to arrive in front of the wooden door . Opening the wooden door, he saw a girl in light green garnts standing behind the door, she was an incomparable beauty . It had been a few months since the last ti he had seen Liu Ruoyan .
Once she saw the door being opened by Li Luo, Liu Ruoyan beautiful apricot pupil imdiately lit up, her charming face also flushed red, "Mucheng gege, you really are here . " She said as she pouted her small mouth, and then threw her delicate body into Li Luo’s bosom .
Just when she was about to co in touch with Li Luo, a honey-coloured big palm took ahold of her shoulder, making her body unable to move further .
Liu Ruoyan looked at Qin Yu’s direction, her slender eyebrows wrinkled before straightening out almost imdiately . She had no choice but to straighten her body . After fixing her clothes, Liu Ruoyan said, "Qin Yu gege, you’re also here . "
Seeing how Qin Yu and Liu Ruoyan’s interacted, Li Luo could not help but get a headache . They were his novel’s male and female protagonists, yet for so reason they practically looked at each other with disgust .
He really didn’t know why the interactions between them was like that, they didn’t get along at all .
You both are childhood sweethearts . What’s wrong with him that makes you not want to get married to a gentleman like him, and what’s wrong with her that makes you not want to marry your wife?
At this point those two were simply a pair of enemies, who saw each other as an eyesore .
Since the appearance of Liu Ruoyan, Li Luo obviously noticed that the oppressive force which Qin Yu’s body emitted was beco even more pronounced . He could not help but feel his headache worsen . Looking at the still pouting Liu Ruoyan, Li Luo displayed an expressionless look, and asked: "Ruoyan, what were you thinking by coming to this place? It is dangerous here . "
"I’m here to help you!" Liu Ruoyan lifted her little chin, and said .
Li Luo thought back, there was sothing like that in the novel . Although Liu Ruoyan was a delicate and weak woman, her master was actually the world’s best doctor, and she was her master, the God Doctor Miao Yunyun’s last disciple .
Doctors, they both had the ability to save people, and to kill them .
Liu Ruoyan not only had an extraordinary skills in the art of healing, but her talent in refining poison also far exceeded an ordinary person’s . Since Yunxi City’s governor residence was protected by many layers, it was not good to enter forcefully . Yunxi City had both a wide network and abundant resources . It was one of the most important properties of Qin Yan, so it was naturally protected very closely . The soldiers were also well equipped .
Moreover, reinforcent from Bian Capital City could arrive to this place very fast . So the siege this ti must be promptly resolved in the shortest ti possible or no further war of attrition such as Ling City can be taken .
Therefore, it was necessary to dispose of Yunxi city’s governor, before they attacked Yunxi city .
