Chapter 44: Fake Death
After tossing and turning all day, Ji An finally followed the dragon army back to their barracks on the border, which was a three-story bungalow surrounded by iron bars. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Perhaps because the dragons were more closely associated with American politicians and businessmen, it was clear that their buildings were much more westernized than those of the wolf people who preferred yurts—even the second-floor balcony looked like the one Romeo whispered to Juliet.
In the hazy night, Rollin stood on the balcony, his back looking like a person in a playful who was crazy about love.
The wound on her arm finally stopped bleeding after the military doctor applied the medicine, fortunately, the Kuandian ravine was not far from the border, but it was only half a day's drive, otherwise even if she did not hurt the vital point, the arm would be considered useless.
Ji An stood beside her, and watched without saying a word at the night watchman under the bungalow carrying a flashlight, and then watched the white light that shot indiscriminately on the white wall and the shadows of the branches and trees of the road intertwined with reality and reality......
Rollin is waiting for someone's comfort, while Ji An is waiting for an anti-guest opportunity.
On the villa, Ji An had already discovered a major secret - the glow of General Marco's body told him that this wolf god of war was still alive.
A living person, deliberately controlling his breathing and faking his death, must have thought of some surprising way to win.
Regarding this chaotic war situation, Ji An quickly sorted out his thoughts: as long as Assyria's brother is still in the wolf clan, Ji An will eventually have to return to the territory of the wolf clan to complete the task.
Theoretically, he has two choices: first, completely turn his back on the wolf clan, help the dragon clan win this civil war, and then return to the wolf clan to find his brother to live with; Second, help General Marco turn things around, return to the wolf clan, and then rely on his military exploits to ask the patriarch to restore his brother to freedom.
In fact, he can only choose the latter, first, the dragon people are scheming, and cooperating with them, it is difficult to ensure that they will end up with "the cunning rabbit dies, and the lackey cooks"; And more importantly...... General Mark did not die.
Ji An has fought with General Marco, if he gets serious, his skills are not inferior to General Marco, but two people of equal strength, if one moves to kill, and the other is taboo and tolerates everywhere, it is two different things.
In addition, the wolf people have always hated traitors, and in the chatter of the saliva soldiers, there is a story that the wolf clan troops spent a whole year chasing down traitors.
It is conceivable that if General Mark had decided that Assyria was an inner ghost, although he might not have the ability to turn the tide with his outnumbered enemy, he would have killed Assyria with all his remaining breath......
Ji An sighed wistfully, overshadowing Luo Lin's faint sigh.
Finally, the two people on this balcony with their own thoughts waited for what they were waiting for.
When the chief of staff of the dragon clan appeared behind them silently, and when Luo Lin coughed a little shyly, Ji An knew that the time he was waiting for had come.
Ji An respectfully stepped back and closed the door intimately—though he couldn't help his curiosity, he peeked through the crack in the door before leaving.
I saw that the chief of staff's hand approached the place where Luo Lin was wrapped around one circle of gauze after another, and retracted his hand with pity that he couldn't bear to touch, and his eyes were so gentle that they seemed to be affectionate.
It's just that his human glow doesn't glow pink like Rollin, but a flickering and pulsing changing color.
It's a pity that this truth is only visible to him. Ji An shrugged helplessly and walked towards the basement on the first floor.
In order to prevent the corpse from decomposing, the dragons moved General Mark's "corpse" to an ice cellar-like basement as soon as they returned to the barracks.
The entrance to the basement was naturally guarded by dragon guards, and Ji An said casually: "Your chief of staff asked me to come down and confirm General Marco's body again." ”
As Ji An expected, although the guards didn't understand what else needed to be confirmed, they thought of the cautious nature of the chief of staff, and the idea that no one would beat the corpse, so they easily let them go.
But Ji An didn't go down alone, but said writhingly: "That..... A few big brothers, can you go down with me? To tell you the truth, I used to see the general's mighty side, and I always felt as if he was going to cheat the corpse at any time; Besides, even if a character like General Marco is dead, the ghost must be a powerful ghost who only kills people without blinking. I'm really ...... I don't dare to go down alone, and as you know, I feel guilty about him. ”
The four guards looked at each other, and suddenly felt disdain for Ji An.
Unlike businessmen whose interests, profits and losses are absolutely linked to their personal likes and dislikes, most of the personal feelings of soldiers are not purely based on interests: for example, for national heroes like General Marco, they may feel that they have a common enmity with him because they have relatives and friends and have died in this battlefield rakshasas, but they have some admiration for him in their hearts, even if his existence is like a soul messenger to them; On the contrary, for a national traitor like Ji An, although he is beneficial to his own side, he is to teach these bloody men to despise after all.
What's more, this is a national traitor with a thief's heart but not a thief's guts.
"Yo, don't they all say that the wolf people are the bravest? Why is it different from what I heard? One of them scoffed.
Ji Ji replied crampedly: "This ..... I really hope that you will bear with me a little longer, just for a while, after all, I am a recruit brought out by General Marco, and some things still need to be confirmed by me personally. ”
The sarcastic man just now rolled his eyes slightly, and said impatiently: "Okay, just for a while." ”
After speaking, he lit a night lamp and pulled open the lid of the entrance with another guard, and took the lead down the stairs leading to the basement, allowing Ji An to follow.
Ji An closed the lid and cut off the connection between the basement and the first floor at once.
After training, Ji An's night vision has always been better than ordinary people, so he didn't wait for the two people in front of him to fully adapt to the half-ambiguity, and he had already slashed at their carotid artery with his blade.
Before the two could scream, they fainted and fell to the ground.
Ji An picked up the night running light that had fallen to the ground again, and slowly approached General Marco.
At this moment, General Marco was like an eagle chick shot down from the red sky by hunters, lying there lifelessly.
Although Ji An didn't know how General Marco could completely stop breathing, the circle of brilliant golden light on the edge of his body still completely betrayed him - people can cultivate all kinds of miraculous skills the day after tomorrow, but they can't train this innate glow.
"General, I took out two guards, and there are two more outside. I know you must have your plan, give me an indication of how I should cooperate? Ji An asked in a low voice.
