Zhong Ziyuan walked all the way, and felt shocked all the way. Her eyes were full of blood-red afterimages, the ground was full of mutilated corpses, and the bloody smell in the air became more and more intense, making her nauseous and nauseous.

In a trance, she seemed to hear the neighing of horses, saw countless sword lights and sword shadows shaking, and the dark night was illuminated by the cold light that swept by. Countless crimson blood splashed in the air, like countless flowers blooming on the other side of the Huangquan Road, colorful, miserable and gorgeous rippling on the road of death.

Seeing that her face was pale and her expression was in a trance, the leader of the guards looked worried, raised his voice and said, "Miss Zhong, don't worry, this battle is over." These alien rogues will not be able to take advantage of our regular army. ”

"Alien rogues?" Zhong Ziyuan was in a trance, and she found that among the corpses all over the ground, except for the Han sergeants wearing Tibetan blue uniforms, the rest were wearing different alien clothes, and there were old and young among these people, and many of them were women.

Zhong Ziyuan saw that on the ground not far away, there was a girl in a dirty kudzu cloth robe, about eighteen or nineteen years old. The young girl held a young Han sergeant in her stiff arms, and the scimitar in her hand was stabbed into the sergeant's chest, and the spear in the sergeant's hand was broken in her soft abdomen. The young girl took the life of a young sergeant in a tragic way of burning jade.

Several soldiers happened to go over and separate the two entangled bodies. The girl's body was thrown indiscriminately into a huge pit that had been filled with hundreds of corpses of aliens.

Zhong Ziyuan couldn't help but shudder and muttered, "How much hatred is there?" Do you have to fight for your life like this? ”

The leader of the guards followed her gaze. He spat hard at the pit and said, "These nomads, both men and women. From seventy-year-olds to eight-year-old children, they can shepherd sheep and kill enemies. All of them are extremely fierce, and Miss Zhong really doesn't have to feel sorry for them. ”

Zhong Ziyuan retracted his gaze and nodded reluctantly. She looked up and searched the crowd in front of her as they were busy cleaning the battlefield. The head of the guard pointed to a slope in front of him on the right and said, "General Guo is over there!" ”

Guo Chengsi is condescending. Vigilantly watch for any remaining enemies around you. When he saw Zhong Ziyuan, he waved to her from afar. Seeing that his robe was not only covered with dark red marks, but also marks of being cut by a sharp blade, he still stood there with all his beards and tails. Zhong Ziyuan's heart couldn't help but relax. He immediately beckoned to him, then hurried over to him.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhong Ziyuan's mouth, who knew that this smile had not fully bloomed. But it froze on his lips. Her pupils began to contract violently in fear. I saw a feather arrow **** out of the dense forest behind Guo Chengsi with a terrible sound, and went straight to his vest.

"Get down!" Zhong Ziyuan screamed at him.

Although Guo Chengsi couldn't see the situation behind him, he heard the piercing sound of breaking the air. Instead of looking back, he quickly lunged forward and fell straight into the waist-deep grass in front of him.

With a "whoosh", thanks to his quick reaction, the cold arrow flew out almost against his vest, nailed to a tree trunk in front of him, and the feathers on the tail of the arrow were still trembling.

Zhong Ziyuan's horror has not yet subsided. I saw dozens of feather arrows raining out of the dense forest, whistling in the direction that Guo Chengsi pounced on.

After Guo Chengsi heard this souring sound of breaking the air. Immediately rolled on the spot a few times, and rolled into a ditch at the bottom of the slope to avoid the attack of the rain of arrows. But the soldiers who were originally scattered around him did not have such good luck, except for a few clever ones who immediately pounced and were not injured, many soldiers were shot by these sudden feathered arrows, and fell to the ground and wailed.

Fortunately, Zhong Ziyuan was pounced on by the leader of the guards who followed closely behind, and blocked her with his own body, so she was unharmed. However, the leader of the guards was unlucky enough to be shot in the shoulder by a feathered arrow. However, he didn't seem to care, and when the rain of arrows stopped, he immediately dragged Zhong Ziyuan with one hand and hid behind a huge rock.

The surrounding sergeants suddenly panicked, Guo Chengsi jumped up, hid his body behind a tree, and then shouted: "Find cover!" Where are the archers, shoot back now! ”

Before he finished speaking, another rain of arrows came towards the big tree where he was hiding. Fortunately, the big tree was relatively thick, and although it was inserted like a hedgehog, it did not hurt Guo Chenghe's hair. At this moment, a group of archers rushed to hear the sound, and immediately drew their bows and arrows and shot back.

In the end, this side has an absolute advantage in numbers, and the feather arrows are like raindrops, and they immediately crush the opponent and can't raise his head. Seeing this, Guo Chengsi immediately pulled out the sword with the blood on his waist that had not yet dried, and shouted: "The archers press the formation, and the rest of the soldiers will capture the thieves with this general!" ”

Zhong Ziyuan quietly looked from behind the rock, and saw the sergeants holding shields in their hands, spears and archers cooperating like tigers in the mountains, quickly pressing towards the dense forest. On the ground, there were more than a dozen sergeants with arrows on the ground, rolling and wailing, and there was a state of slaughter.

Zhong Ziyuan suddenly felt that the hem of her shirt was tight, as if she had been grabbed fiercely, and she turned her head in surprise. But he saw that the leader of the guards had a dark face at some point, he pinched his throat with one hand, grabbed the hem of Zhong Ziyuan's clothes with the other, stared at his bloodshot eyes, and said with difficulty: "Quick, go quickly, sue, tell the general, the arrow is poisonous."

Zhong Ziyuan jumped up, she looked around in horror, picked up a shield that had been discarded on the ground and hurriedly chased after it. At this moment, Guo Chengsi had already led his troops to strangle with more than 20 masked black-clothed people, although the black-clothed people were not many in number, they were all good hands. The sergeant, who was good at killing the enemy on the battlefield, seemed a little powerless when he encountered them, and left more than a dozen corpses behind in an instant.

Guo Chengsi's eyes were red, he shouted loudly, and after swinging the sword in his hand, he forced back the two men in black, and shouted: "Lie three battles to meet the enemy!" ”

These three formations were conceived by him in his spare time, and consisted of three sergeants. One man carries a shield, one carries a spear, and one carries a steel sword. When facing the enemy, the three of them came together. The shield-wielding is responsible for defense, the spear-wielding is responsible for long-range attacks, and the steel-wielding sword is responsible for close combat. After mastering the drill, the three of them work together seamlessly, and can often deal with enemies several times their size. Even if it is used to deal with these people with strong martial arts in front of them, it is not a problem.

After lining up the three battles, the morale of the sergeants skyrocketed, and the black-clothed people who were soon killed were defeated one after another. Almost all dead and wounded. When Zhong Ziyuan caught up, he happened to see this almost one-sided battle. She breathed a sigh of relief and saw Guo Chengsi standing aside with a sword in his hand. She ran over panting.

Guo Chengsi hurriedly pulled her to a safe place behind her, and then said with a little dissatisfaction: "What are you doing with you?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan grabbed him and gasped, "Be careful, the feather arrows they shoot are all poisonous." ”

"They still use poison? What a bunch of martial arts scum. A hint of disgust flashed across Guo Chengsi's face. He looked up. Seeing that the battle in front of me was nearing its end. He shouted extremely coldly: "Fight quickly, you don't need to leave a single living mouth!" ”

Zhong Ziyuan held the shield in his hand tightly, and although a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes, he pursed his lips and said nothing.

The remaining few men in black were still struggling to resist, and after hearing his merciless order, their eyes flashed with horror and panic. Maybe they regret that they shouldn't have come to wade into this mess, or maybe they are shocked by Guo Chenghe's ruthlessness.

It's a pity that there is no regret in this world, and the last few people in black who are still resisting stubbornly. After all, he was killed by these soldiers who were bent on avenging the robes.

Looking at the corpses scattered all over the place, Zhong Ziyuan turned around suddenly. Holding on to the trunk of the tree on the side, he vomited violently. Guo Chengsi patted her back helplessly and said, "Don't stay here, go back to the tent and rest!" ”

Zhong Ziyuan finally stopped vomiting, she shook her hand with her back to him, and said, "Don't pay attention to me, you go and do your own work." At this time, a sergeant picked up the black cloth on the faces of several black-clothed people, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he immediately turned his head and shouted, "General, come and take a look." These dead soldiers were all Han Chinese. ”

"Hide your head and hide your tail, I expected it a long time ago!" Guo Chengsi whispered coldly: "It seems that there are people in Chang'an who don't want me to go back." He bowed his head to Zhong Ziyuan and said, "You rest here for a while, and I'll take a look." ”

"Go ahead!" Zhong Ziyuan really didn't want to look at those dead corpses anymore, so he had to wave his hand casually to let him go.

She patted her annoyed chest, wanting to go down the mountain first to see the poisoned soldiers, and suddenly there was an exclamation in her ears: "General be careful"

Her heart sank suddenly, and she turned back with a "whoosh". I saw a man who was originally lying in black sit up suddenly, and with a wave of his hand, a dart glowing with a dim green light flew towards Guo Chenghe, who was close at hand.

The distance was too close, and Guo Chengsi had no way to dodge at all. He leaned slightly, and the darts that should have been stuck in his chest slammed into his shoulders.

The sergeants around him roared angrily, and several spears were thrust into the body of the man in black. Although the man in black spat blood, he still clung to the barrel of the gun and showed a hideous smile, and after exhaling the last breath of turbidity, he fell on his back.

"Zhao Yiming?" Guo Chengsi covered his shoulder, which was quickly stained red with blood, with one hand, and muttered: "It's really ruthless to fight for your life, I underestimated you before!" ”

His tall body began to crumble, and Zhong Ziyuan cried and pounced on him to catch his fallen body, watching his handsome face quickly turn black due to the invasion of the poison

"Heir, you don't want to die" Zhong Ziyuan's heart-rending scream sounded in the dense forest, and this terrible scream hovered in the forest and did not disperse for a long time

"Heir! Heir, where are you going" Empress Guo closed her eyes tightly and muttered indiscriminately. Her head swayed on the soft yellow pillow, and strands of black hair were like invisible spider webs that wrapped her tightly together.

Hearing her muttered voice, Lady Yao and Jing'er hurriedly walked in. Lady Yao picked up the yarn tent with eight treasures and beads, and called in a low voice: "Niangniang, Niangniang, wake up!" But a nightmare? ”

Empress Guo opened her eyes suddenly, she reached out and grabbed Lady Yao's wrist, and said tremblingly, "Is the heir back?" ”

Lady Yao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang is in a daze, according to the footsteps, General Guo will not be able to come back in at least ten days." ”

Empress Guo was stunned, and said with a casual smile: "It's me who is stunned!" He has a great army with him! Naturally, it was not so quick to get back! This kid has already cheated to death once, and he definitely can't scare this palace a second time! ”

Female Officer Yao pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "General Guo was a young hero, and he cheated his life and broke into the enemy line alone, and made this great contribution. We have only seen these big things he has done in the book, and we never thought that there really was such a hero. General Guo! There is still great wealth waiting for him in the future! ”

Empress Guo couldn't help but smile and said, "Your little mouth is just talking!" ”

Jing'er whispered: "Niangniang is going to collapse now?" ”

Empress Guo half-closed her eyes and asked lazily, "When is it?" ”

Jing'er hurriedly returned: "Back to my mother's words, I just arrived at Chen." ”

"It's just time!" Empress Guo rolled over and fell asleep facing the wall. Although she closed her eyes, she felt no tiredness, and she said helplessly: "Let's collapse!" ”

A group of little palace maids who had been waiting outside the palace gate for a long time rushed in and began to wash and groom her. Jing'er helped her comb her hair in a bun, and immediately several little palace maids held up various jewelry with plates, knelt in front of her and asked her to choose.

Empress Guo lowered her eyes slightly, swept around the glittering and dazzling jewelry, and then shook her head lightly. The little palace maids looked at each other, and they all turned their eyes to Lady Yao for help.

Female official Yao hesitated slightly, took a few steps forward, and reached out to pick out a jade carved Danfeng hairpin from the plate, as well as a pair of garnet-inlaid red gold hollow Huasheng. Then with a wave of their hands, the little palace maids immediately got up, bowed down respectfully and retreated.

Lady Yao carefully inserted these jewelry into the bun for Empress Guo, and comforted: "I know that Niangniang is worried about the emperor's illness and has no intention of dressing up. But now the concubines in the harem are all panicked, and the mother is their backbone, and they still have to dress up with more spirit. ”

Empress Guo stroked her sideburns, sighed, and said, "Now you can still understand the thoughts of this palace." ”

Lady Yao pursed her lips and smiled, "Breakfast has been prepared, can I use some of it?" ”

"No, I really don't have much appetite." Empress Guo stood up, opened her arms, and asked Jing'er to put on the robe embroidered with a golden phoenix on the bottom for her, and then said lightly: "Let's go to the Qianqing Palace first!" (To be continued.) )
