Chapter 308: Together

The bonfire beeped, and a few sparks rose from time to time, and quickly dissipated into the air, leaving only a few wisps of smoke.

Next to the fire, He Ying sat tightly with Su Mo in her head, her head resting on Su Mo's shoulder, and she closed her eyes and took a nap.

The white face of the past is now full of dirt, and it is all tired. Occasionally, Dai's eyebrows frowned slightly, revealing a little pain.

More than a dozen soldiers lay in a circle with the two of them as the center. Everyone is ragged and unkempt. Many of them were also seen with strips of cloth bandaged haphazardly, revealing red bloodstains.

Su Mo hugged He Ying in his arms with one hand, and a branch in the other, slowly stirring the fire to make it burn more vigorously.

At this time, it was the fifth day after their breakthrough. That breakthrough reduced the original more than 40 people to the current 17. More than that, but they left their lives in the wilderness.

Looking down at He Ying's delicate beauty in his arms, Su Mo's eyes showed a look of tenderness and pity. Then he looked up at the soldiers around him, his lips tightened, and the hand holding the branch clenched hard.

More than 30 living lives disappeared in front of my eyes, it was not a game, it was not a cold number, but a real life with flesh and blood. For Su Mo, the impact of that heart was undoubtedly huge. This also completely made Su Mo feel more clearly that he was in harmony with this era.

It seemed that the cries of the dead warriors could still be heard, the cries of the dead warriors, who exchanged their lives for the survival of Su Mo and others.

"My lord, my mother will ask my lord......"

"Adults go quickly! Hugh forgot his promise, please take care of his wife and ......"

"Go, go, don't look back!

"Fight to the death, fight to the death......"

Su Mo took a deep breath and threw his head back sharply, trying to restrain the tears that were about to flow. But in the end, he couldn't do it, and the two lines of heat gushed out so wantonly, scratching the dusty cheeks.

"I swear! I'll take care of your family!" he muttered in a low voice, and with a slight click of his trembling palm, he severed the branch.

"Your Excellency!" a rush of footsteps approached, followed by a muffled voice.

Su Mo closed his eyes, sniffed, calmed himself down a little, and then opened his eyes.

The person who came was called Zhuang Hu, and it was the only small flag left among the remaining seventeen people. is not yet a crown, and in the next life, he will be a half-grown child at most. But here, he has become a warrior, a true veteran of the battlefield.

"Huzi, have you found them?" Su Mo tried to make himself smile a little, nodded at Zhuang Hu, and asked softly.

When they broke through that day, Sun Sheng and Jiang Bin both rushed to the front, and they didn't have time to join them. Although Su Mo had sent half of his people to support and guide, there was still no news.

So after finally getting rid of the pursuers, Su Mo once again divided five people as scouts, patrolling the surroundings while probing in the direction of Qilan, hoping to find them.

And Zhuang Hu, as the temporary commander of the remaining seventeen people, was responsible for arranging specific matters and analyzing all the information.

Hearing Su Mo ask at this moment, Zhuang Hu's face darkened, and he shook his head silently, and there was already a flash of crystal in his eyes.

Under the circumstances of that day, the disparity between the forces of the enemy and us was too great, and it was a sudden sneak attack, and there was almost no chance of survival. And if it weren't for Su Mo's decisive decision to survive later, I am afraid that these people in front of him would have become corpses long ago.

Thinking about the departure that day, there were more than 100 brothers in life and death, but now there are only 17 people left, what a miserable situation this is, and how can Zhuang Hu, a tough guy, not shed tears?

Su Mo gritted his teeth and inhaled, trying to force himself to stabilize his emotions, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He Ying, who was in his arms, was suddenly awakened by this trembling, opened her eyes suddenly, and subconsciously jumped up to fight. This bloody struggle for her life all the way, this tough girl is really worthy of a woman, and she has won the respect of these veterans with her ruthlessness of sacrificing her life and forgetting death.

It's just that the price is also obvious, there are countless injuries on his body so far, if it weren't for Su Mo's quiet support with the technique of life endowment, I am afraid that he would have died a long time ago.

This is actually the result of the soldiers' emphasis on protection, otherwise no matter how magical Su Mo's life vitality is, he will not have time to react at all.

The fighting in the past few days has already transformed this originally innocent girl into a qualified warrior. That's why after suddenly noticing the abnormality, even in his sleep, he was also alert to abnormalities, and when he opened his eyes, he subconsciously prepared to fight.

Su Mo hurriedly held it down, and lost a trace of life vitality again, so that this girl calmed down.

"Still haven't found Brother Sun and them?" He Niu'er, who had completely sobered up, smiled embarrassedly at first. Turning his head and seeing Zhuang Hu respectfully on the side, he immediately understood, and couldn't help frowning and asking.

Su Mo shook his head slightly, stood up without saying a word, and walked towards the mound alone. The place where they were resting was a shallow stream of water. In addition to the dense primeval forest, there are endless hills.

Their camp is located in a clearing surrounded by several hills, which can not only greatly shield the cold wind of the autumn night, but also make the surrounding area undoubted from being attacked.

The mound that Su Mo climbed at this moment was the highest hill among them. He was sad and anxious in his heart, so he wanted to be alone and quiet. At the same time, he also needs to think carefully about his next move.

Now that Sun Sheng and Jiang Bin are not there, there is no officer in the entire team, except for Zhuang Hu, the original small banner. As an official, and as a person who was protected by everyone, he must take his due responsibility.

Go back with everyone, go back alive, this is what he must do!

Looking at his lonely figure, Zhuang Hu wanted to speak and stopped, and when he wanted to follow, He Ying next to him stretched out his hand to stop him. There was a look of pity in her beautiful eyes, and she said softly: "Don't bother him, he needs to be quiet." ”

Zhuang Hu opened his mouth, but finally sighed.

He Ying raised her eyes and looked around, turned around and sat down beside the fire and added a few sticks of firewood to make the flame bright again, and then asked, "Can you find out the situation?" What is this place, where is the nearest county seat, and how far is it?"

Zhuang Hu hurriedly withdrew his eyes from looking at Su Mo, and said with his hands crossed: "Back to Mrs., this place should be close to Shenmu County." It is probably between Shenmu County and Xing County, and more than 70 miles to the north, which is Fugu. And if you turn to the west and cross the Yellow River, it will be a sacred tree. As for the nearest county seat, I'm afraid it's still Xingxian when we came. ”

He replied respectfully, for He Ying to be called a lady, but he regarded He Ying as Su Mo's wife and concubine.

He Ying did not correct this title, but had a kind of happy thoughts. It's just that after hearing the situation of the geographical location, I couldn't help but show a look of disappointment in my eyes.

Xingxian will certainly not be able to return, and who knows how many enemies have gathered there so far? As for Fugu in the north, just looking at the hardships along the way, I am afraid that we will not be able to reach it in a day or two.

And the Shenmu heading west, not to mention whether they have to cross the river or not, can they find boats, but the entire Shenmu County is close to the Great Wall, and almost all of them are within the iron hooves of the Northern Yuan, and with their current situation, they dare not set foot easily.

And she couldn't find the big city, so she originally thought of contacting the He family money village from it, but she had to be stillborn.

At present, everyone is fighting hard repeatedly, and everyone is tired and hungry, and there is no baggage. If you can't find supplies quickly, I'm afraid it will be difficult to sustain it.

It is also ironic to say that she still carries the five hundred taels of silver tickets that she painstakingly stole that day, but in this barren mountain and wilderness, there is no silver but no place to spend it. This stack of silver tickets has completely become a pile of waste paper, and it is not even as affordable as a steamed bun.

Sighing and putting this frustrated thought away, and turning his head to look at Su Mo's lonely figure on the mound, He Ying tilted his head and thought about it, and then said to Zhuang Hu again: "Forget it, you can also go and rest, you have to hurry as soon as the morning dawns." ”

Zhuang Hu responded, turned around to leave, He Ying suddenly stopped him again, and said: "Tomorrow, let everyone try to collect some wild fruits and the like, and when they take turns to explore, they will also hunt some prey as much as possible." ”

Zhuang Hu bowed down again to receive the order, and then turned around.

He Ying watched him walk away, and after calling a few people to replace him for inspection, he turned around and walked towards the earthen hill.

When I got closer, when I raised my eyes occasionally, my body suddenly trembled. On the mound, in the light and darkness of the moonlight, Su Mo, who was sitting on his knees, raised his head to the sky, motionless, like a sculpture. But on the side cheeks, there is a faint flow of light.

He was in tears! This man who always looked tired, always smiled on weekdays, and seemed to never care about anything, was secretly crying at this moment!

He Ying watched quietly, and her heart seemed to be suddenly pulled up by something, and she was in pain. She was in pain for a moment, and it seemed that she couldn't even breathe.

His hand pressed lightly to his chest, trying to calm his emotions, and then he moved his steps again and walked over gently. He didn't speak, just sat down silently beside the man, leaned on him, hugged the man's arm with both hands, and rested his head on his shoulder.

She is just a little woman, at most a little woman whose mind is full of chivalrous rivers and lakes. She didn't have much insight to help him with ideas like Sister Bi'er;

She doesn't know any art of war and strategy, and she can't stand up and wave troops like Brother Sun. All she could do was accompany him so quietly. Or fight to the death with the enemy, and leave the corpses in the wilderness, or just snuggle up to him until they turn to dust......

It doesn't matter, no matter what the outcome, as long as you're with him, nothing matters, you don't have to care about anything.

The simple woman thought so, and then closed her eyes slightly again, and her face was full of dirt, but suddenly a satisfied smile appeared.

The moonlight peeked out of the clouds again, and under the clear light, the woman's smile was like an unknown orchid in the valley, quietly blooming, exuding a suffocating beauty.
