If he didn't show his figure, he would have to look at him quietly like he was now.

But if she showed her figure, she was afraid that she would scare the Han soldiers who were keeping vigil.

The shadow drifted for a moment in anguish, and at last floated to the small mound, where it sat still.

Gao Su leaned his back against a birch tree, his spear crossed in front of him, carefully wiping it, as if he was treating a former companion, attentive and safe. The hazy moonlight shone obliquely through the treetops on the tip of his spear, glowing with a subtle, sharp chill.

The shadow floated silently on the mound, looking at him as if he were looking at a painting.

Suddenly, Gao Su's movements paused.

He turned his head sideways, his gaze sweeping over the mound where she lived. As if she was startled, she instantly floated far away, and then slowly floated back again. Now she is still a faint shadow, Gao Su can't see her, no one can see her.

But the look and movement he had just made was just, almost like......

It was as if he could feel her save.

The shadow patted his chest and slowly floated back again, sitting on the small mound.

Gao Su stared at the mound for a long time, his gaze slowly fell silent, and finally showed a helpless and self-deprecating expression.

- He was probably crazy, and he actually felt that Ah Yao was looking at him.

He picked up the bronze mask and put it over his face, and strode towards the Han soldiers. The Han soldiers gathered in twos and threes, some talking and laughing in low voices, and some drawing something on the sand in front of them. Gao Su walked up to them and asked two words in a low voice.

One of the lieutenants lowered his voice and muttered two vague answers.

Gao Su shook his head and said in a low voice: "Since the day he left Chang'an, the general has left us far behind him for more than 300 miles, and now no one can find any trace of the general and the Chinese army. Pay attention, and if you find the location of the general, report it to me quickly. ”

The lieutenant patted Gao Su on the shoulder, lowered his voice and said four words.

Gao Su was silent for a moment before he whispered, "It's not that I don't believe in the general, but because ...... If you find the location of General Gongsun or the Chinese army, you must report it to me immediately, and do not delay. ”

The surrounding Han soldiers answered the sound of yes in twos and threes, turned on the faint fire, and continued to keep vigil in place.

After another moment, the Han soldiers began to change shifts in twos and threes.

The Han soldiers who were on vigil yawned and gave up their place to their comrades for the next round of vigil, and then went back to their tents to rest. The shadows of the trees in the birch forest are swaying, and occasionally there is a slight rustling sound, and two subtle insect chirpings can be heard.

The stream flows along the ditch, and the sound of the rushing water is very clear in the night.

There was silence all around, except for the Han soldiers walking back and forth. In order to prevent the Huns from discovering it, they even put out half of the fire, and the fire was faint, and from time to time there was a crackling sound and two crisp sounds.

Gao Su leaned against a birch tree, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

He put the cold spear in the palm of his hand, and the armor on his body was not removed, and he fell asleep.

Yun Yao slowly floated to Gao Su's side, leaned down, and stroked the bronze mask inch by inch, feeling astringent in her heart. He was probably tired during the day, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep...... She glanced over his cold spear and armor, and called out astringently, "Changgong." ”

Gao Su suddenly opened his eyes.

He stared firmly in her direction, his gaze sharp, like a cheetah ready to attack.

Yun Yao had never seen such a Lanling King, dangerous and unpredictable. He stared firmly in her direction, his gaze wandering inch by inch, as if searching for something. She floated to the side a little uncomfortably, and Gao Su's gaze chased after her closely.

He, he, he, he can't really see himself.

Yun Yao was a little worried, and cautiously glanced at the Han soldiers who had changed shifts, and took advantage of the fact that they didn't notice this, so he cautiously and slowly showed his figure, and called him softly: "Changgong." ”

Gao Su was stunned.

He lifted his hand and pressed the mask, little by little, slowly taking it off.

The bronze mask, glowing cold in the moonlight, slipped from his hand and fell to the grass with a thud.

He looked at her without blinking for a moment, his eyes roamed over her inch by inch, and he let out a long sigh and said, "Ah Yao......"

I haven't seen her for more than 20 years. Since the day he left that world first and reincarnated in Chang'an City in the Western Han Dynasty, he had never seen her again. He thought it was because they were too far apart, so he found Yanmen County from Chang'an City, to Shanggu County, to Yunzhong County, and searched carefully, but he never found her.

Later, he thought that it was because she was reincarnated in a remote place, so he joined the army, wandering one remote mountain village, wilderness, and barren cliff after another...... Even in the deserted mountains, he searched carefully, but he couldn't find her either.

If it weren't for Ah Yao's swear that they would be reincarnated together, he would have to go to Lethe to find her.

"A-Yao." Gao Su muttered, reaching out to grab her. But he caught a blank.

Suddenly, he remembered that Ah Yao had said that he could go out of his body.

Therefore, what is standing in front of him at this moment is not her body, but her soul.

Gao Su's eyes became gentle little by little, and he laughed deeply: "A-Yao." ”

He took two steps forward and grabbed her shoulders weakly. Although I still couldn't touch her, my heart slowly became peaceful.

Yun Yao hummed softly, glanced at the Han soldiers who had changed shifts, and then floated into Gao Su's palm and shrunk into a small ball. She rubbed his index finger and said gently, "I know your whereabouts need to be kept secret, so I came alone." ”

The little Yun Yao floated in the palm of his hand, looking at him with a pair of eyes open, and his expression was stern.

Gao Su laughed again, and the fatigue and troubles of the past few days were swept away. He turned sideways, blocked the view of the night watchmen with his back, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you come here?" "This is Dai County, one of the most dangerous places in the Western Han Dynasty.

Yun Yao floated in the palm of his hand, and his gaze was a little wandering: "That's because ......"

"A-Yao." Gao Su's expression became heavy, "This is the battlefield. ”

Yun Yao hugged one of his index fingers—though Gao Su couldn't feel it—and shook it vigorously, "I know, that's why I sneaked here." She said seriously, "It's because this is the battlefield that I floated here with my soul body." I...... I miss you. When she said that, she hung her head wiltingly, and her tiny toes swirled around the palm of his hand.

Gao Su was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly, and laughed lowly twice.

He was about to say something more, when he suddenly covered her with his other hand, and the gentle and helpless expression he had before vanished without a trace, replaced by a kind of fortitude and solemnity. He heard movement around him, and on the other side of the ravine, there was a jumble of footsteps.

A sergeant on the night vigil came to Gao Su's side and whispered two words.

Gao Su also lowered his voice and asked, "Is General Gongsun back, or is there a night attack by the Huns?" ”

Yun Yao obediently curled up in Gao Su's palm, and it was dark all around, and only some vague conversations could be heard.

"It's General Gongsun who has returned...... Wounded...... Seven thousand ......"

"Under attack...... The general is invincible...... Fighting ......"

"Chang'an City...... Repatriation ......"

Yun Yao knew that she couldn't stay any longer, so she slowly hid her figure, floated out along Gao Su's fingers, and whispered in his ear, "I'm going back." I'll wait for you to come back. She floated in front of Gao Su again, and saw him nodding slightly, his eyes implying encouragement.

The look on Gao Su's face was majestic and solemn that she had never seen before, like a majestic mountain.

Yun Yao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that when Gao Su was in Lanling County, although he lived a peaceful and peaceful life, he would occasionally show a lonely expression. But at that time, she didn't know where Gao Su's loneliness came from. But now she knows.

He is a natural general, a general born for the battlefield, and a general who will never fall.

Only on the battlefield will the King of Lanling really come to life and become dazzling and radiant.

Yun Yao looked at him quietly for a while, and then remembered the Turkic people who were trembling under the tip of the Lanling King's spear, and smiled.

She didn't bother Gao Su and the others talking, but slowly floated out little by little. The forest was still quiet, the murmuring of the stream in the ditch, and the faint moonlight shining through the treetops, illuminating the mottled shadows of the trees.

The moonlight pierced through her body, leaving not even a shadow behind.

Yun Yao floated out of the grove and over a barren wheat field, and after two roundabouts, she finally drifted back to the place where she was staying. The sky was faintly white, as if the sky was about to dawn. She rubbed her eyes, turned out three copper coins, and made three trigrams in a row.

The first hexagram, Ji.

The second hexagram, Ji.

The third hexagram, Ji.

The three trigrams are auspicious, proving that Gao Su has no risk in this battle, and she can sleep peacefully.

Yun Yao breathed a faint sigh of relief, and fell asleep in a daze for a while, when she heard someone talking outside.

Although they kept their voices extremely low, Yun Yao still vaguely listened to them.

"There are Huns more than 100 miles away, and they will quickly send the lord back to the royal capital......

In connection with the movement she heard last night, Yun Yao still didn't understand. It must have been this Han army that encountered the Huns in Daijun, and also lost a lot of soldiers. Gao Su's position should be the flank or rear flank, so last night, he said to the Han army who were keeping vigil, "The general left us far behind for more than 300 miles, and now no one can find any trace of the general and the Chinese army."

The conversation outside suddenly became louder, as if it was deliberately trying to wake her up.

Yun Yao knew that she couldn't pretend to be asleep anymore, so she rubbed her eyes and got up, and went outside to ask the guards what was going on. The guards said that there were Huns in the north, and the lord needed to leave for the royal capital immediately. Yun Yao then nodded and said, "Then let's go." ”

She already knew where Gao Su was, and it should be very convenient to find him in the future.

So the guards immediately abandoned their baggage and took Yun Yao back to the royal capital on horseback.

Yun Yao, she ...... Actually, he can ride a horse.

Her equestrian skills were all hand-tuned/trained by the King of Lanling, and she was not inferior to those guards who were born in the military camp.

Therefore, the scene of riding a horse back to the royal capital on behalf of the princess really shocked many people.

When Yun Yao returned to the royal capital, it was already two days later, and the war hundreds of miles away had ended. The military newspaper was sent to Chang'an from a hundred miles away, and the acting king also received some news one after another. Yun Yao learned what happened from the mouth of the acting king, one after another:

-- The cavalry general Gongsun Ao went out of Dai County and lost more than 7,000 yuan; The barnyard general led the remnants of the people, and the light cavalry covered the attack to block the Xiongnu in the dynasty.
