Chapter 226: A Quest for Reality
At dawn, the weather gradually brightened, and Huang Chao tried his best to open his eyes, but it was dark all around, and he could see nothing, except for the howling cold wind.
He had a splitting headache and fatigue, and he didn't have the energy to think about where he was or what was wrong with him. He struggled to support his body with his hands, leaning his back on a withered tree trunk in exhaustion, unable to extricate himself from his prostration for a long time.
He closed his eyes and gasped for air. The cold air of the early morning made his consciousness clear, and his headache gradually lessened, and he tried to recall everything that happened last night, and his heart suddenly remembered the handsome Wang Xianzhi.
He opened his eyes and looked around, wondering where Dashuai was at the moment, the sky was not bright enough at this time, and the dense woods blocked the morning light, although he would not be able to reach out and lose his fingers, but it was not so easy to see the surrounding situation clearly, not to mention the yellow nest at this time, he still felt dizzy.
Huang Chao clenched his teeth, used the seven-star jade golden dragon knife as a crutch, struggled to get up from the ground, stumbled and almost fell, and suddenly someone seemed to hold him, so that he did not fall again.
Huang Chao slowly turned his head, and behind him appeared two teenagers with outstanding temperament.
"Who are you?" Huang Chao asked vigilantly, although he also knew that even if they were villains, he could only be at their mercy at the moment.
"We are nearby villagers, my eldest brother didn't return last night, and some people said that they saw him come to the cemetery last night, so we rushed over immediately. Murong Jie casually lied.
The two people who appeared behind Huang Chao were Murong Jie and Lin Xian'er, who had been guarding all night, they saw that the sky had turned white, but they didn't see any movement in the cemetery, so they planned to come over to see what was going on, but they didn't expect to meet the crumbling Huang Chao.
Huang Chao looked at them carefully for a long time, and saw that one of them was handsome and handsome, and the other was pretty and beautiful, not like a gangster who robbed a house, but like a talent seeking fame, so he calmed down a little and was no longer suspicious. Huang Chao has an indescribable affection for readers, which seems to be because he himself was once a reader.
He was hungry and thirsty, and he didn't have the strength to wonder if they were nearby villagers.
"Have you seen anyone else besides me?" asked Huang Chao weakly.
"No, we're new here, but we haven't seen anyone else but you. Murong Jie said as a matter of course, this is not a lie he is making, they really haven't seen anyone else along the way.
"This can't be, this can't be, let's look together, it's impossible for me to be the only one left, they can't leave me, and besides, there should be a corpse. Huang Chao chattered endlessly, and he still looked a little dazed.
Lin Xian'er, who had never said a word, had already noticed the seven-star jade golden dragon treasure knife in Huang Chao's hand. This knife is made of pure gold, the knife is five feet nine inches long, inlaid with three jade and four emeralds, a total of seven gems, each moment is the size of an egg, the handle of the knife is entrenched in a golden dragon, the tail of the dragon extends to the tip of the knife.
The Seven-Star Jade Golden Dragon Sword, although it is not as good as the Xuanbing Sword in his hand, nor is it as good as Murong Jie's Red Lotus Blade, but it is by no means an ordinary weapon, and the sword is condensed with the aura of Da Luo Jin Immortal.
At first glance, Huang Chao didn't have much cultivation, at best he was just a martial artist, why the blade in his hand would condense the aura of Da Luo Jin Xian, which made Lin Xian'er puzzled.
How did Lin Xian'er know that Huang Chao was a real disciple of Huang Long, and it was not surprising that he had such a treasure sword.
Murong Jie didn't know this, he didn't know what Da Luo Jinxian was. He supported Huang Chao to look around, and after looking for a long time, there was not even a corpse.
Huang Chao was very puzzled in his heart, whether the soldiers and villagers who came here last night were dead. If it is said that they will inevitably slip through the net again, Huang Chao will definitely not have any doubts, but if it is said that they are all dead, Huang Chao will definitely not believe it.
Last night he had seen with his own eyes that the soldiers and villagers who had come to the cemetery had been slain by monsters one by one, and that some might have escaped with it, but it was impossible for all of them to be safe, and he was sure that he had not been dazzled.
Things were so strange and strange that Huang Chao only thought it was incredible. Now even Wang Xianzhi is nowhere to be found, if they don't find out what happened as soon as possible, the 50,000 righteous troops they are stationed here may not be long before they will collapse without a fight.
Now that the two armies are facing each other, it is said that the Tang army is mobilizing men and horses to prepare for a decisive battle with the Tongyi Army on all eight routes.
Success or failure in this battle, we must not let these years of hard work fall short because of small losses.
The more anxious I feel in my heart, the more weak my body becomes. Huang Chao couldn't hold on anymore and had to sit on the ground again, his weak legs couldn't support his body, he needed time to regain his strength, he really wanted to lie down and sleep beautifully, but he knew that this was not the place to sleep.
He didn't find the brothers, so he left the place as soon as possible, and now there was no second option.
"Little brother, I have something to ask for, I don't know if you will agree, if you can help me with this, when I return to the camp, I will definitely thank you heavily. Huang Chao said.
"Alas, the pleasure of helping others is known to the people, and it is incumbent upon the general to say this, even if he says anything, as long as he is within his ability. "Fairy Limbo has always been nosy, and he agreed.
On the other hand, Murong Jie, who was supporting Huang Chao, did not agree so neatly.
"Thank you, little brother, thank you, little brother. The life and death of our army marshal is uncertain, I think it should be in my father, I hope the younger brother can help me find it, and send him back to the barracks for me. Huang Chao said repeatedly.
"If it's really here, it's not hard to find. You rest here first, and I will help you find it, and if you can't find it, you can't blame me or not. Murong Jie hesitated for a moment and said.
"Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, everything only depends on the will of heaven, even if it can't be good, the little brother is also my great benefactor. Huang Chao said breathlessly.
Murong Jie looked around, but Lin Xian'er was looking at Huang Chao, she became more and more curious about Huang Chao, and always felt that this guy was definitely not a thing in the pool.
Huang Chao leaned against the big tree like a dead man, and only when he was close to him and felt his snort, the boiling breath like smoke, did people know that he was still alive.
Whether it was Murong Jie or Lin Xian'er, they didn't know what kind of strange power it was that exhausted such a strong warrior, shattered his armor, and made him embarrassed like a lost dog.
There are not many generals in the world who can be compared with Huang Chao, but such a brave general, the scorched and brittle appearance at the moment is simply miserable, and no one knows what he has experienced.
Everything that happened here last night, it seems that there are no other witnesses except for Huang Chao alone, and no one knows where they have gone when the others who have come here, whether they are alive or dead.
