Tide beat empty city

Not long after the autumn hunting, the mountains near the outskirts of the city were sealed off for hunting by the royal family's children.The concubines of the two generations were both from Xixia, and they learned how to bow, horse, ride and shoot when they were young, so there were not a few family members accompanying them for entertainment.

One morning, when Zhan Zhao left his tent, Yong Ning came out to help him fasten his cloak. He saw Yong Nian and his wife Li Yi each leading their horses, chasing and beating them towards the mountain pass.

Yongning acted as if he hadn't seen him, and said: "The mountains are cold in the morning and evening, don't come back late."

Zhan Zhao agreed, looked at Shan Yuan and said, "It seems to be arguing."

Yong Ning glanced at it, and said with a smile: "It's the same at home. It's okay, as long as the children are making trouble."

Zhan Zhao was surprised and said, "Child? You are only two years older than him. Why do you talk like..."

Yongning interface: "Like an old woman? Who made you look like an old man."

After a moment of silence, Zhan Zhao said, "I'm a boring person. Follow me in this life, I'm afraid I'll bore you to death."

Yong Ning looked up at him, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes: "Officer, are you afraid that I will regret it? I won't. Unless you don't want me, otherwise..."

Zhan Zhao sighed, stroked her shoulder and said softly, "But I said it casually, where did I think of it?"

Yongning hugged him with both hands, and leaned his head on his chest: "But I'm afraid. I'm afraid that you will be too wronged to stay, and one day you will not be able to bear it."

Zhan Zhao pulled her away, looked at each other and said, "Then don't let me be wronged when I go home, okay?"

Yong Ning nodded vigorously, tears welling up in his eyes.

Zhan Zhao wiped it off for her, then inhaled slightly: "It's windy, let's go in..."

Before the words fell, violent shouting and cursing came into my ears with the wind.The two turned their heads in surprise, Yongnian and the two horses were no longer visible, Li Yi stood alone on the grass, stomping his feet in front of the mountain.

As soon as Yongning lifted the hem of his skirt, he hurried over and asked, "What's wrong? Where's your brother?"

Li Yi said bitterly: "He wanted to enter the Wild Elephant Valley alone. I said I would follow, but he insisted. He also scared my horse away."

Yongning was startled again, looking at the pass where there was no one there, he stammered and asked, "Really, did you go alone?"

Zhan Zhao rushed over to hear it, and said comfortingly, "My lord also hunted alone a few days ago, and he is very skilled. I think nothing will happen."

Yongning turned to him anxiously: "Yes, but I heard that in the Wild Elephant Valley, no hunter has ever entered alone and come out alive..."

Zhan Zhao was startled, then got on his horse.Before leaving, he turned around and said, "Don't panic, I'll bring him back."

Li Yi wanted to charge forward, but was grabbed by Yong Ning, turned his head and ran towards the camp.

Zhan Zhao galloped into the valley entrance, and the road was narrowed by weeds and shrubs on both sides.After walking for a while, I had to get off my horse, leaning against a dark cliff on one side, and lowered my head to explore the road.The long and narrow valley road stretches in twists and turns, and the wind is unfavorable, and it feels extremely hot when walking.There are also many snakes and insects, and the mosquitoes are as big as flying praying mantises.

Walking to the point where the vision at both ends was blocked, Zhan Zhao suddenly stopped.Slowly drew the sword with the backhand, and suddenly slashed to the back of the head.With a click, the branch was cut off, and a two-foot-long snake corpse fell limply behind his feet.

Turning around, he saw a hole opening to the sky in the rocky cliff on the side, and a cool breeze came in, and when he got closer, he shivered twice.Zhan Zhao fastened the loose collar again, held the moss in his hands and looked up into the cave, unexpectedly seeing a big harvest.

Along the cave wall, there was a man wriggling and trying to climb up, using both hands and feet.

Zhan Zhao couldn't help shouting: "Yongnian!"

Yongnian slipped his hand and almost fell.Looking down and seeing him, he yelled ecstatically, "Zhao! Zhao! Come up!"

Zhan Zhao climbed up to his side in two or three, swiped his sword and chopped off the heads of two big spiders, grabbed him and scolded, "What are you doing here? Come back with me!"

Yongnian tried his best to break free from his grasp, panting and said, "I don't! It's so hot down here, poisonous snakes and fleas are still chasing people, it's disgusting."

Zhan Zhao was annoyed and funny: "Are there no poisonous snakes and fleas up there? Or are you planning to live on the top of the mountain and never go down for the rest of your life?"

Yongnian yelled: "If you don't go down, you won't go down! It's no fun to go back anyway." The echo in the cave was loud, and the crying was magnified many times.

Zhan Zhao was annoyed, grabbed his collar and wanted to jump down.Yongnian suddenly let go of his hands and feet, and hugged him completely in the air, rubbing his face against his neck and crying bitterly: "Zhao, I don't want to live without you. This time, this time you are here too. I should be very happy to see you every day." ;But I still miss you more than ever, and I can't bear it no matter what. What should I do? Maybe I don't have to think about you if I die..."

Zhan Zhao felt tight in his chest, unable to think or answer.Gritting his teeth and wrapping his arms around him, he jumped out of the cave in a few steps, put his hands on the flat ground, walked away and stood on the edge of the cliff.

The valley below the hillside is sunken, and the dense fog shrouds the jungle like a dormant beast.

Yongnian followed and looked down, seeing nothing unusual, he asked puzzled, "Zhao, what are you looking at?"

Zhan Zhao said lightly: "Those who want to die, don't care what I watch."

Yongnian bared his teeth from choking, salivated and said, "No, I don't want to die."

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, still staring down the mountain without saying a word.

Yongnian touched his sleeve, and said flickeringly: "I thought you would come here, I'm not willing to die. To say that is, it's nonsense..."

Zhan Zhao finally turned his head and glanced at him, not paying attention: "You are a prince, and you are still messing around?"

That indifferent look.Wronged and angry, Yongnian hugged his arm and shouted: "What do you think? You are with your sister all day long, and I only ran out when I missed you! Do you think you are fooling around?"

Zhan Zhao pushed his hand away, and said lightly: "If you are a prince, you should respect yourself. Don't say anything wrong, don't do anything wrong. You know if you're fooling around or not."

Yongnian wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, breathed in and said, "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion in front of others. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here with you."

So what's going on here, Zhan Zhao sneered, turned to face the mountain and said, "Hunting in spring and autumn, there are two seasons in the forbidden mountain every year. The remaining winter, summer and summer, those people who rely on the mountain to live on the mountain, how do they make a living? Have you thought about it?"

Yongnian thought about it, and simply nodded: "Cancel the hunting? Okay, just cancel it. What else?"

The decision must have been quicker.The attitude is also not stable enough.

Zhan Zhao was silent, shook his head and said, "Also, don't listen to people's words easily."

Zhao's mind is too heavy.Yongnian took a step forward, looked into his eyes seriously and said, "I don't listen to people's words easily. If the people are not rich, the country will not be strong. Do you think I haven't thought about it? If so, you have really used your heart in vain. Then I I don't even deserve to stand here and tell you this and that."

Jiao Zhanzhao did not expect these words for a while.Then he said: "Let's go down the mountain first. If you don't want to go back to the cave, let's go from here."

Yongnian looked down and lost his voice: "So steep? I, I..."

"You can climb back along the cave." Zhan Zhao smiled while crossing his arms.

Yongnian sat on the ground at the foot of the mountain, his hair and clothes were torn in a mess, and an egg-sized swell on his forehead was red and shiny.Panting for breath and waiting for his heartbeat to return to normal, he learned from the pain and said, "You amuse me."

His embarrassment almost made Zhan Zhao laugh out loud, and tried to hold back: "You chose the road. Zhan was always in front, just to prevent you from slipping and rolling, and I was behind it. Does the lord think that you and me Should the order be reversed?"

Yongnian suddenly lost his temper, he lowered his head and stroked Keqing's toes and said, "Zhao, do you know what you are talking about. I will be very happy to hear it a few more times."

Zhan Zhao was stunned for a while, and suddenly thought of something, his brain exploded.Thinking about it carefully, I couldn't help being furious.But he couldn't attack again, he just held the sword and lowered his eyes without saying a word.

Yongnian struggled to get up, patted the dirt and said, "Then let's go."

Zhan Zhao smiled silently, and stepped aside: "My lord likes to be in front, so Zhan will let you."

Yongnian didn't say a word, he walked around with his head down.Hearing the rustling sound of his robe behind him, he pretended not to care and said, "Hey, there are also monstera on this mountain. It's not as good as ours, isn't it, Zhao?"

Zhan Zhao said flatly: "Then I would like to thank the prince for his kindness to them."

Yongnian couldn't take it anymore, turned around and held him and begged softly: "Zhao, don't be angry. It's not fun to go ahead, I want to go with you, okay?"

Zhan Zhao smiled and didn't answer, nor did he shake off him.

Yongnian lost his mind: "Go to my sister's house in two days and see our monstera."

After hearing this, Zhan Zhao nodded: "If the prince doesn't remind me, I'll forget about it. After accepting your gift, I should come to the door to thank you personally."

Yongnian smiled and said, "It's your stuff, why thank me. I just found them to be lonely, so I just found a few more companions to accompany them." Seeing that Zhan Zhao's expression remained unchanged, he said, "Zhao, you don't know how to do it. You bastard, don't you recognize the true master?"

Still waiting here.Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "Your Majesty's division is too detailed. Zhan likes them, there is no difference. So there is no need to recognize them."

Yongnian bit his heart like an ant, and after another bite, his hands were a little unsteady.Zhan Zhao patted him and said, "Your lord thinks that Zhan has forgotten it, and taught someone to move it. In fact, I think that as long as they grow well, it's the same if they stay in the palace or barren hills. I don't necessarily have to look at them myself. "

Yongnian turned his face back, and smiled lowly: "Zhao is right. If you don't watch it yourself, you won't feel bad when you die." Seeing his frown, he continued confidently: "All plants will die, right? Might outlive you."

Zhan Zhao sized him up for a while, then turned his head and chuckled: "Thank you, Prince Huisi, first tell me that everything is one, and then tell me that life and death are in order. The so-called life is like sending, and death is like home, Zhan has a better understanding since then."

But you can't recognize those flowers after all.It's not very good for him to be light like this.

It is also what you hope to grind to be as ruthless as you said in your mouth.

Take your time, Yongnian then slowed down and said: "What's so scary about this Wild Elephant Valley? Someone died in it before. It must be because I didn't see the cave, and I couldn't get out and kept walking in, but I died of heat."

Zhan Zhao shook his head: "It's not necessarily a death from the heat. It's like hunting elephants."

Yongnian felt terrified: "You mean, there are really wild elephants inside? Then...then they must have taken ivory. As a result..."

Zhan Zhao sighed: "It's caused by greed. It's just that no matter who it is, it's really not easy to swallow an elephant."

Yongnian looked around, turned his head and asked, "Where is the elephant?"

Zhan Zhao laughed and said, "It's just Zhan's words. If the prince doesn't care about ivory, it's important for you and me to hurry."

Yongnian's head drooped, and his voice suddenly became quieter: "Zhao, how many more hills do you think you have to climb? I got up early and didn't eat."

Yongnian grasped the delicious roasted rabbit with greasy hands, his mouth was full and he still remembered: "Zhao, why are you standing still, you can eat too."

Zhan Zhao poked the fire with a branch, watched him swallow the last piece, and asked with a smile, "Do you still want to eat tonight?"

Yongnian nodded sharply: "Yes. Although there is no salt, Zhao's cooking is really good. I have never eaten such fresh rabbit meat."

Zhan Zhao stood up and stepped on the fire, turned and walked forward without saying a word.

Yongnian ran a few steps to follow him, looked at him with a puzzled expression, and said, "Such a big mountain, of course I can't get out today. Isn't it just sleeping in the open at night, and it's not like I haven't slept with me before. What are you angry about?"

Zhan Zhao paused and smiled at him.

Yongnian immediately fell silent, and walked obediently behind him.

After climbing up the third ridge, Yongnian probed down the mountain and asked tremblingly, "Zhao, have you seen it? There are so many elephants..."

Zhan Zhao nodded: "I see." He stopped to look at the sky, and told him, "You collect firewood, I'll go up and build a bed, and I'll stay here tonight."

There is a spinosa tree beside me, with a thick body and dense leaves covering the top.Yongnian stared dumbfounded at Zhan Zhao jumping up, his body disappeared in a flash, he couldn't recover from standing for a long time.

After eating the roasted rabbit, it was still bright.The herd of elephants at the foot of the mountain walked leisurely and soaked in the water to cool down.Yongnian saw that his body was itchy, so he picked up his clothes and took a sniff, leaning over to Zhan Zhao's ear and whispering, "Your body smells bad. Will it smell like smoke to you at night?"

Zhan Zhao looked at him for a while with a half-smile, then stood up and pulled him around the mountain without any explanation, and began to strip his clothes.

Yongnian didn't dare to move, he stripped him naked and threw him into the stream with a bang.He thumped twice and hurriedly stood still, stretched out his hand to wipe the water all over his face, and looked at Zhan Zhao on the bank foolishly.

Thousands of rays of golden light from the setting sun fell on him, scattered out again, and cast into the misty sky, with pairs of blind and anxious eyes.

It suddenly seemed like yesterday.In the remote place, he has him.

Zhan Zhao stood in the center of the light, and asked, "Your Highness is waiting for someone to serve you? It's very cold in the water."

Yongnian reached out and picked up a string of water splashes, blindfolding himself.He hid behind and said, "Don't you wash?"

Zhan Zhao smiled: "Why do people wash their bodies?"

The first star lights up in the sky.For the brilliance of his eyes at this moment, he spent a thousand years of light.

Water drops fell one by one, Yongnian looked down at himself: "Because there is dirt."

Zhan Zhao nodded: "That's right. Your lord washes slowly, I'll go upstream."

When Yongnian understood, he had already turned around.The sky is full of stars and moon, dyeing that back with a dark and elegant pearl light.

Yongnian leaned against Jianshi as if he was out of strength, closed his eyes and whispered: "Zhao."

Sadness welled up.This word cannot be repeated in a lifetime.

When he returned, Zhan Zhao sat under the tree and waited for him.

He raised his head and said lightly, "I'll take you up." He took his hand and flew up to the treetops.

Two nests are erected on straight branches.Yongnian was thrown into the big one, next to the trunk of the tree.

Lie down and look at Zhan Zhao, he was almost asleep in the air, his clothes fluttering, as light as a bird.

Yongnian called out: "Zhao."

Zhan Zhao closed his eyes and said nothing, wait for the next one.

Yongnian got as close to him as possible, and said, "My side is wide enough, you come to sleep too."

Zhan Zhao turned his head to the side, his eyes gleamed in the dark, like a deep pool.

Yongnian said with a guilty conscience, "It's too narrow outside, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well. Tomorrow you have to walk through the elephant herd, so what can you do if you don't have the energy."

Zhan Zhao sat up with a smile.Yongnian twisted his body and moved inward, making room for a large space, and looked at him with piercing eyes.

Zhan Zhao shook his head, went to lie down beside him, and closed his eyes to rest.

The wind rustled through the leaves.

Yongnian waited, got up lightly, and looked down at him.

Slightly frowning eyebrows, quiet face.So familiar yet so far away.

The wind blew the lapel slightly open, and the neck was connected to the chest, exposing the clean skin.He thought of wiping his body when he was sick, the thin and beautiful body made his eyes want to reach out and touch it.

Seeing the slight ups and downs in his heart, Yongnian couldn't help wanting to kiss him.I was trembling all over thinking about it, and the sweat on my palms was clenched.

Zhan Zhao didn't move, but suddenly asked: "What's wrong?"

Yongnian flinched in fright, quickly waved his sleeves, and said, "There are mosquitos. You sleep, I'll chase them away."

Zhan Zhao opened his eyes, stretched out his hand to drag him into his arms, and said with a smile, "Go to sleep. I don't know if the spinulus tree has a smell, does it repel mosquitoes?"

Nestled in his dreaming arms in a daze, it took a long time for Yongnian to wake up.

Stripped off his clothes and slept in his arms.Isn't this what I lured him out and wanted to do to him?How to teach him to do it to himself in turn.

Of course, this is also very enjoyable, but, why does Zhao seem to have changed.

Upset and a little sweet.He thought in a panic, if Zhao changed, would my treatment of him also change?

Panic escalates to panic.If I can't love him after changing, what's the point of my life?

Suddenly, she knew very clearly that losing her feelings for him was as terrible as losing him.

Regardless of whether Zhan Zhao was asleep or not, he shook him and asked, "Zhao, my sister and I look alike?"

Zhan Zhao closed his eyes and answered, "Not like."

Yongnian didn't believe it: "I used to sleep together, and I hugged you; now that you're married, you hug your sister, have you changed the habit? I don't look like her, how can you hug me?"

Zhan Zhao let go of his arms, turned his back to him, and smiled secretly.

Yongnian also turned sideways, slowly tightened his hands along his waistline, and sighed softly: "Zhao, have you seen your own body in the mirror? I don't know how beautiful it is."

The palm of his hand touched his soft belly, connected with his breathing and viscera, the ups and downs became more and more rapid.Yongnian smiled and put his face close to the protruding spine, rubbing lightly: "Turn around, close your eyes, and treat me as your sister. I am willing."

Zhan Zhao pushed him away violently, closed his eyes and said slowly, "You want to go to sleep. Zhan will help you."

Yongnian hastily turned over and walked away, smiling at Fanxing silently.

You are still the same, never changed.

----Cuddled me in simple sleep, at most stick to this step.

Zhao, there are so many things that you will never be able to do.

And what I can do is destined to be much more than you.Not now, wait until I have strength.

Yongnian slept very peacefully and had no dreams all night.

Zhan Zhao wasn't around when he woke up, so he had no choice but to slip out along the tree trunk to the ground, raise his head to face the vast expanse of rising sun, and his mood also cheered up.

The fields in the morning are vaster than in the evening, and the colors are not so magnificent, but the wind is sharp and refreshing.Walked around, but didn't see Zhan Zhao.The fire he left under the tree has been extinguished, and there are several scorched and black unknown objects rolling beside it.

Yongnian tried to pick one up and break it open, a sweet scent burst out with white air.He was overjoyed, and he emptied the glutinous and soft inner flesh in twos and twos, thinking to himself that I really have a good eye, Zhao Ke really has the ability.He can dig sweet potatoes buried in the soil, but to be a Nan Xia, he has to be clairvoyant.

Choking and hiccupping after eating too much, he hurried to the stream to fetch water, and saw Zhan Zhao walking out of the forest with a large bunch of fresh green leaves in his arms.

Yongnian went up to meet him, and wondered: "Zhao, what are you picking it for? You can't eat it."

Zhan Zhao smiled without answering, walked back to the tree and scattered the leaves on the ground, subdivided and picked a dozen or so plants and handed them to him: "Take it with you."

Yongnian took it, put it from his left hand to his right hand and back again, very annoyed: "Where do you take it? It was crushed in the clothes, and the juice flowed everywhere."

Zhan Zhao said without raising his head, "You can take it with you or not." While talking, he tidied up and raised his feet to go down the mountain.

Yongnian hurriedly followed, trotting and begging: "Zhao, this slope is steeper than yesterday's. If you don't pull me, I will roll down. Look at the big elephants below, how can you roll to their feet? You are so good at it, If I was alone, I left last night. If I didn’t leave, I was afraid that I would be trampled to death in the dark. Well, then, you won’t let me open the way and follow behind without doing anything, will you?”

Zhan Zhao said, "Wrong. I opened the way, and you stood behind."

Yongnian looked around at the leaves in both hands, and said with a wry smile: "Then I'll be in the front. Rolling down from the back will hurt you again."

Seeing that he was really about to roll when he was sitting on the ground, Zhan Zhao picked it up amusedly, and reprimanded: "I will take you down. But you are not allowed to talk on the road, and I will let you go if you open your mouth."

Yongnian quickly shut up and nodded repeatedly.

Rushing to the foot of the mountain in one breath, Yongnian suddenly exclaimed: "Zhao, look, look, little elephant!"

After speaking, his wrist was empty, and he leaned over and almost fell headlong.Instinctively, he leaned back vigorously, but he couldn't stop under his feet, screaming "ah..." in his mouth, and slid down quickly on his hips.

Rolled to the elephant's legs as he wished.Yongnian put one hand on the ground, endured the severe pain in his back and just sat up, watched his little elephant's trunk curl for a long time, and unceremoniously snatched the scattered green leaves from his hand.

He felt anxious, it was from Zhao.Just as he was about to reach out to snatch it, Zhan Zhao who rushed over patted him on the shoulder to block him, and held another handful of green leaves in front of him.

The elephant rolled it up as it was, stuffed it into its mouth and chewed, and kept flapping its two big ears happily.

Zhan Zhao stepped forward with a smile, took out a few other leaves from his sleeve, rubbed out the juice with both hands, and wiped it on the baby elephant's neck.

The elephant looked very comfortable, shaking its head and rubbing against him vigorously.Zhan Zhao lightly scratched its ears, and the elephant blew twice towards the sky. With a flick of its long trunk, it lifted him up and put it on his back.He stopped and seemed to think about it, then surrounded Yongnian again, turned around and walked on the flat ground.

Yongnian squeezed into the elephant's trunk, shaking a little scared at first, but then realized that it was actually very stable, he smiled and said to Zhan Zhao with relief, "So why didn't you tell me about the leaves you picked for the elephant? body."

Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "No amount of them is enough to give each one of them. We can only do our best."

Yongnian looked at him with admiration: "Zhao, I understand. Others entered the Wild Elephant Valley with knives and traps, and they all died. But you brought food and medicine, so we must be able to get out alive."

Zhan Zhao nodded and said, "Tell me what kind of medicine it is."

Yongnian gave him a bright smile: "Isn't that also the leaves of the spinach tree? Mosquito repellents are only found on the mountain. Although elephants are big, they can kill roe deer and elk, but they can't do anything with mosquitoes. Isn't it?"

Zhan Zhao smiled and said nothing.

Yongnian turned his head, propped his chin with his hands, and looked at the radiance coming from the flat pole of the earth. He suddenly thought, is your heart like the light of the sun, shining everywhere?

The guards of the palace found Taniguchi, and were surprised to see their prince and Mr. Zhan, whose mounts turned into two giants.The baby elephant walked among the parents, having fun from time to time, spraying the water sucked into the nose tube, and spraying it onto Zhan Zhao and Yongnian who were sitting on the back of the elephant.

Natural harmony, beautiful and picturesque.

Yongnian was rolled up by the elephant's trunk and put down on the ground. He ran to the little elephant and got tired of it for a while, then turned to Zhan Zhao and said, "Zhao, I'll go back and issue an order that no outsiders are allowed to come in and hunt elephants."

Zhan Zhao is silent.You only know how to prohibit other people's greed, why can't you think of regulating yourself.
