Chapter 225: The Dead
The three armies retreated, and Zhou drove Xiaoyue towards Jiuyou and the others.
"Circumstance. โ
At this time, a pleasant voice came out, and Yang Ruoying waved her hand towards Zhou Fu.
Zhou turned around and came to Yang Ruoying's side, "What does the princess command?"
"You're my personal bodyguard, can't I look for you if it's okay?"
Yang Ruoying winked at Zhou Fu a little playfully, and the different feeling from usual made Zhou Fu lose his mind for a moment.
"Zhou Fu, accompany me back to the tent. โ
Yang Ruoying said again, as if she felt a little embarrassed, she hurriedly added, "Since entering the city of Buluo, I haven't spoken much to you, and I also want to talk to you about my views on this war." โ
After speaking, she looked at Zhou Fu with some expectation.
"Wait a minute. โ
Zhou Fu spoke, then turned around and walked to the Nine Shadows, "You go back to the camp first." โ
Then Zhou Fu turned around again, but he could see a bright smile at the corner of Yang Ruoying's mouth. Yang Ruoying's long hair moved with the wind, galloping on a horse, and Zhou Fu also followed behind, and different eyes fell on his back.
"Humph!"
At the end of the three armies, Qin Ling snorted lightly, and looked at Zhou Fu who was laughing and talking with Yang Ruoying with dissatisfaction.
Beside Qin Ling, Qin Yue was also there, but compared to the armor on Qin Ling's body, Qin Yue was wearing civilian clothes.
Qin Ling and Qin Yue have diametrically opposite temperaments, Qin Ling has always wanted to follow Qin Qingtian to fight on the battlefield, and Qin Qingtian occasionally lets Qin Ling go to the battlefield in person, of course, they are all small battles. As for Qin Yue, she was already weak, Qin Qingtian would not let her go to the battlefield.
This time the two armies faced off, Qin Ling was naturally clamoring to come, Qin Yue also came to the rear of the battlefield rarely, Qin Qingtian considered that it was impossible for a full-scale war to break out today, and he also agreed to her request, because he knew very well what Qin Ling and Qin Yue were thinking.
Qin Qingtian rubbed Qin Ling and Qin Yue's heads, "In the face of such a fierce enemy, do you have confidence?"
"What a rival, what confidence!"
Qin Ling gritted her teeth and said, but in her heart, she secretly scolded Zhou Bi, a womanizer. However, recalling the domineering heroic posture of Zhou Fu on the field just now, she also has to admit that she is very handsome and charming.
"Xiao Yue'er, you have to come on. โ
At this time, Lei Zhenzi whispered in Qin Yue's ear with a narrow smile, seeing that Qin Yue's cheeks quickly turned red, he sighed twice, "Although the opponent is a princess, Xiao Yue'er, you won't lose, we old guys are all your backing." โ
"Is the opponent a princess?"
Qin Qingtian muttered, his gaze fell on a back figure, this figure was also wearing armor, but it was difficult to hide the beautiful figure under the armor. Qin Qingtian will not forget that when he saw that figure for the first time, the shock he felt was not only that his appearance and temperament were unrivaled in the world, but also because of his unfathomable strength from that figure, which made his heart palpitate.
In Yang Ruoying's camp, there is no sense of luxury, but it is different from ordinary military camps, it looks extremely clean and tidy, giving Zhou Fu a feeling of refreshment.
At this time, Zhou Fu and Yang Ruoying sat opposite each other across a sandalwood table.
"Princess, Young Master Zhou, please use tea. โ
The maid who followed Yang Ruoying made two cups of tea and gently placed them in front of Zhou Fu and Yang Ruoying.
Zhou Fu smiled and said, "There is Miss Lao Baixiang." "Baixiang, the maid who has followed Yang Ruoying since childhood, has a light smile on her round face, and is about sixteen years old.
"Serving Her Royal Highness the Princess and Young Master Zhou Fu is what Baixiang should do. โ
It seems that because of the reason of being around, Baixiang is a little restrained and stands quietly aside.
Zhou Fu smiled slightly, Baixiang is actually a slave, but it is already very good luck to be able to follow Yang Ruoying, after all, Yang Ruoying is also very good to Baixiang, and Baixiang should never have experienced the pain that a real slave has to endure.
"Zhou Fu, what do you think about this war?"
Yang Ruoying took a sip of tea and asked softly.
Zhou Fu put down the teacup and said, "Although we won today, it is difficult to force back an army of 500,000." โ
"Yes, an army of 500,000, how many people will die on our side if we want to defeat such a powerful army?"
Zhou Fu was slightly silent, and Yang Ruoying's expression was a little gloomy, "The leader of the 500,000 army is the Lieyuan Imperial Daughter, and her talent, intelligence, and marching and fighting are all unparalleled Lieyuan Imperial Daughters. And I, in the eyes of everyone, am just a vase, as a deputy marshal, I can't make any useful proposals, I can only watch from the sidelines, and even waste troops to protect me. In the past, I was always under the protection of the third brother in the imperial city, but now I know how useless and useless I am. โ
A deep voice came out of Yang Ruoying's mouth, and Zhou Fu now knew how much pressure Yang Ruoying was on. Maybe she has been in torment since she stepped into the city. Even if she is just in the oppressive atmosphere of the city that does not fall, Yang Ruoying, who has lived in the imperial city since she was a child, also knows that she has stepped into another world, but the opponent is still the princess of Lieyuan, which makes it difficult for Yang Ruoying to compare herself with the princess of Lieyuan, and the pressure she has to bear is even greater.
"The princess is wrong, at least there is one thing that you are stronger than the princess of Nalie Yuan. โ
Zhou Fu said softly, Yang Ruoying was slightly stunned, "What?"
The corners of Zhou Fu's mouth raised, "You have me, a personal guard, but she doesn't." โ
"Poof!"
Yang Ruoying covered her mouth and smiled, and her mood seemed to be much better, "That's right." โ
"Princess, there is a danger on the battlefield, is His Royal Highness the Third Prince asking you to come here just to spy on Yang Baizhan?"
Zhou Fu took a sip of tea and asked softly. As Yang Ruoying herself said, she can't play any role on the battlefield, if it's just to monitor Yang Baizhan, it doesn't seem that Yang Ruoying needs to be in danger.
Yang Ruoying shook her head, "This time, it wasn't the third brother who asked me to come. โ
Zhou Fu was stunned: "Princess, you want to come by yourself?"
Yang Ruoying still shook her head: "No." โ
Zhou Fu's eyes flashed, could it
Yang Ruoying nodded slightly: "My father ordered me to come." โ
Father, the king of the Snow Spirit Kingdom.
Zhou Fu's heart was full of turmoil, this time it was not the eldest prince or the third prince, it was actually the order of the king of the Snow Spirit Kingdom, so Zhou Fu had to think more.
So far, the king of the Snow Spirit Kingdom does not seem to have set up the idea of the crown prince, allowing the two major forces of the eldest prince and the third prince to confront each other, it is rumored that the king has not interfered with the affairs of the Snow Spirit Kingdom for a long time, this time he personally ordered, what is the purpose.
Sure enough, is it still military power?
Zhou Fu's eyes flickered, military power is an important thing that can subvert a country. As the god of the Snow Spirit Team, Qin Qingtian's influence covered not only the 300,000 troops that did not fall into the city, but also the army of the entire Snow Spirit Country.
If such a person wants to rebel, or is rebelled by other countries, what will happen to the Snow Spirit Kingdom, or if there is such a person in any country, the king will want to do everything to get rid of it.
The king of the Snow Spirit Kingdom didn't care whether Qin Qingtian was loyal to the country or not, all he cared about was that Qin Qingtian was not loyal to him, but loyal to the country and the people, that is to say, he couldn't control Qin Qingtian, the power that he couldn't master, and it was the power that could subvert the Snow Spirit Country, of course he had to get rid of it.
"Then why did you let Yang Baizhan and the princess come to the battlefield together?"
"Yang Baizhan is the eldest brother's person, and I am the third brother's person. โ
"Checks and balances"
Zhou Fu frowned, "Although I'm a little sorry, but the influence and role of you and Yang Baizhan in the army are completely incomparable, and they can't achieve the effect of checks and balances at all." โ
Yang Ruoying was not angry because of Zhou Fu's words, but nodded approvingly, "For this, I am also very puzzled, the third brother obviously has a better candidate." โ
It seems that this time the Snow Spirit Monarch sent Yang Ruoying here, and there seems to be a hidden secret.
Zhou Fu thought so, but at this moment, his heart suddenly tightened, and he only felt that his cold hairs stood on end.
Without too much thought, the cold cyan light suddenly appeared in the pupils, and in the chaotic state, everything around him became extremely clear, and Zhou Fu turned around without any hesitation and suddenly slashed down, and the Qingfeng Sword slashed at an incoming arrow with great accuracy.
"Click!"
A crisp sound rang out, and in an instant, the arrow split through the middle and flew past the surrounding body.
The howling wind blew in his face, and the curtain of the tent had been blown up by the wind at some point, and then a dark shadow flickered, and the crisis hit.
Zhou repeatedly bullied forward, the Qingfeng Sword carried a sharp sword momentum, cut off the dagger in the assassin's hand, and stabbed directly into the opponent's chest without stopping, and the powerful sword momentum instantly exploded, shattering all his internal organs.
However, what made Zhou Fu's pupils shrink was that the assassin did not retreat but advanced, firmly clasped Zhou Fu's right hand, and at the same time, the spiritual power of his body condensed and รท in his left hand, and then an incomparably sharp arrow broke through the air and roared, attacking Yang Ruoying with the intent of killing.
Lives for lives!
"Dead man!"
Zhou Fu was uneasy, this assassin was obviously a dead soldier, and even if he died, he would forcibly kill Yang Ruoying. The cultivation of the sixth order of the martial artist, the last arrow shot with his life, the power is by no means something that Yang Ruoying can block, if he is hit, he will definitely die.
"Great Compassion!"
The right hand was firmly grasped, and Zhou Fu couldn't afford to think about it, and hurriedly raised his left hand, and the powerful power of qi and blood condensed the รท of the illusory half-finger of the book, which directly emerged from mid-air and slammed into the arrow.
But the time was too hasty, and the Great Compassion Finger that Zhou Fu urged this time only condensed the heat รท less than one-tenth of his qi and blood power, and the power was completely insufficient to defeat this life-sacrificing arrow.
Fortunately, the impact of the Great Compassion Finger deflected the angle of this arrow, and the direction that was originally shot towards Yang Ruoying's heart also changed to shoot towards Yang Ruoying's right chest.
In this way, even if you hit, you will not die.
"Whew!"
The next moment there was a soft sound, and Zhou Fu turned his head with an ugly face, only to see that the arrow had shot into the chest of a figure.
However, it was not Yang Ruoying, but Baixiang.
Baixiang, who had been standing beside Yang Ruoying, blocked the arrow with his body.
