Chapter 343, Illusion
Qiu Ying followed behind him, and the previous unpleasantness never seemed to exist.
"General, you are looking for someone, and the emperor is also looking for someone. Whose hands do you say this man is?"
Huo Ziqian's face was ugly, and the gloom in his eyes naturally did not escape Qiu Ying's eyes: "If you are very idle, go to the prison and bring back the body of your king." ”
Corpses?
How can it be?
Qiu Ying was surprised: "Will the king die?
Huo Ziqian stopped talking, looked around for a moment, didn't have time to think about it, and only walked forward along the bloodstained route.
Although he knew that the emperor must have sent someone to search for it, he still planned to go through the entire mountain himself.
"Why should I be in a hurry, don't forget that it's your eldest brother......
Huo Ziqian suddenly stopped.
Qiu Ying twitched the corner of her mouth: "Naturally, it's important to help the general find someone first." "Besides, she is not from the Central Plains, and the death of King Yan has no effect on her.
Huo Ziqian's face did not relax, and he quickened his pace, he had to search for all the places where there were people and beasts.
Even if......
Even if there is only one pair left......
Huo Ziqian's speed was extremely fast, and he searched the entire mountain almost in the time of a stick of incense.
The second hill does not.
It was almost dark, but he still didn't give up, and went to find a third mountain.
The hard work paid off, and he found Lu Chuan's carriage in a secluded mountain pass.
……
The sunset sprinkled thousands of miles of phoenix draped in the sky.
The living man approached, and the carriage was startled.
Dai Mendong and Hao Yuan, who were huddled in the crack of the mountain, quietly stretched out their heads and saw a general in armor.
Dai Mendong and Hao Wei glanced at each other quietly, and then went back to a hole on the side to hide.
"Master—there's a man in armor outside—"
Lu Chuan, who was originally weak, suddenly opened her eyes, her face was bloodless, and she thought about it and said weakly: "Is it like him?"
Who is he?
Hao Zhi didn't know the meaning of these words, but Dai Mendong knew, and thought about it for a moment in his memory: "Master, it seems to be higher......"
Lu Chuan nodded palely and stopped talking.
They were ready, there were no cotton bedding in the carriage, some of them were taken to this cave for Lu Chuan, and the other part was taken to the mountain......
Sure enough, Huo Ziqian's originally happy face cooled a little after seeing the messy carriage.
He rushed up the mountain forest like crazy, and at the entrance of the nearest cave to him, he found one of Lu Chuan's embroidered shoes!
There was blood on the upper.
Huo Ziqian lifted Lu Chuan's embroidered shoes, and saw two pairs of green eyes in the cave light up, and they kept bowing their front legs, and roared warning to Huo Ziqian outside the cave entrance.......
It turns out that this cave is inhabited by wolves!
Seeing that a brutal killing is about to begin......
……
Dai Mendong turned around faintly: "He...... Went to the wolf's den......"
Lu Chuan didn't have a look of surprise on his face, he only waved his hand and told them to stop talking.
After a few moments, there was a wail in the woods, and soon silence fell.
Huo Ziqian wiped the blood on his face, carried the embroidered shoe in his arms, and held a few broken bones rescued from the wolf's den in his hand, the seven-foot-tall man suddenly nested at the mouth of the cave and cried......
When Huo Ziqian was doing all this, Lu Chuan was in the cave on the other side of the mountain, the entrance of the cave was covered with dense shrubs, and there was a rock for shelter, and the rock only exposed a gap.
And Qiu Ying did not follow Huo Ziqian from beginning to end.
She calmly looked at the pool of blood, twisted her hands for a moment, observed the terrain, and then stood up and quickly returned to the cliff.
Standing at the place where she fell, she picked up a stone at random and threw it down, then returned to the bloodstain, and looked at the stone that fell not far away for a moment.
No, this pool of blood is obviously fake.
Could it be that a person really has to fall from above? Impossible, falling from such a high place will always leave some "trace", and the trace she said is not the trace of blood, but the mark of the soil being tamped.
But not here.
She suddenly looked up and saw the belly pocket fluttering in the wind......
It turned out that all this was just an illusion.
When she found Huo Ziqian in the woods, it was already approaching evening, so she said, "Brother Huo, what's wrong? How can there be blood on your body? Are you injured?"
She took the initiative to look at Huo Ziqian's hands and face, but Huo Ziqian unceremoniously pushed them away.
"Brother Huo-" She touched a drop of blood on his face, put it in her nose and sniffed it, and said in surprise: "Is it wolf blood?"
Huo Ziqian didn't notice the change in her title, and he didn't even hear what she was saying. He walked out of the woods in silence.
After walking for a moment, he suddenly retreated again. Asked Qiu Ying: "What did you do just now?"
Qiu Ying said: "I didn't do anything, what else can I do to help you find someone, but I didn't find it either." Did you get anything?"
She looked at Huo Ziqian without blinking.
Huo Ziqian frowned slightly, and he always felt that something was wrong.
The red belly pockets on the cliffs, the blood stains below, the rags in the wolf's den, and the wagons deep in the woods......
What's wrong?
Huo Ziqian couldn't think of it for a while.
Qiu Ying bypassed him directly: "Brother Huo, let's go quickly." The king is still being imprisoned in Xicheng, so we're going to meet for a while. ”
Huo Ziqian said: "Don't go." ”
Xingyu and Zhiqiu had been waiting outside for a long time, and when they saw him coming, there was blood on his body, his eyes were slightly red, and he was holding an embroidered shoe in his hand.
Neither of them spoke, turned over and got into the carriage and went straight back to the camp.
Qiu Ying was surprised: "Hey, let's just leave, don't you go to the emperor? At this time, it is the most suitable to go to him......
Huo Ziqian didn't speak at all, and he still carried the relics he had found in the cave in his arms, and galloped wildly.
On the battalion formation, Du Sheng was still waiting in a hurry, and the battle was about to start tomorrow, why didn't this General Huo come?
Not only did this one thing make him angry, but there was another thing, all the soldiers knew that the Hou Ye, who had bad legs and feet before, was still alive, and it was Huo Ziqian!
Thinking that the queen was gone, Huo Ziqian hadn't arrived for so long, and they panicked. I'm afraid that the two of them fled desperately.
If so, they're all done!
But no matter what, they have to wait, after all, the queen's whereabouts are unknown, if it has nothing to do with Huo Ziqian, then the person who is counted can only be the emperor. Huo Ziqian has 300,000 troops in his hands, and he definitely has this kind of strength.
Having finally come to this point, they could not retreat easily.
Just thinking like this, someone came to report: "Report - General Huo has arrived." ”
Du Sheng was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted him. On weekdays, he is not the supreme commander, but a small deputy. The opportunity to fight with Huo Ziqian today is of course a rare thing. From now on, his prestige will rise.
"General, you are here! You don't know that in the past two days, Xicheng has turned the sky upside down......" He still wanted to repeat the situation of the past two days, Huo Ziqian had frowned impatiently, and glanced at him coldly, Du Sheng obediently closed his mouth.
"Needless to say, just talk about the recent situation, how many sticks you played, whether you won or lost, how many casualties. ”
Huo Ziqian's voice was majestic.
