483: Missing
An Shi saw that she was focused, and she was in a hurry, and she didn't dare to speak. He has basically figured out the county lord's temperament now, she is so focused, she must be accomplishing great things.
The horn blew again, this time the sound became high and urgent, and it was obvious that it could not be supported. Nalan Jinxiu also heard the sound of the horn and had to put down her things, she frowned and asked, "Is it a large-scale siege?"
"Yes. ”
The number of people is too large, even if the city wall is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it will not be called much time. It stands to reason that my brother should have arrived at this time, why didn't he arrive for a long time?
Nalan Jinxiu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, maybe they miscalculated this time, and it was likely that something went wrong halfway. She stood up and said to An Shi: "You let people carry the fire oil up the city wall, and drag it for a while. ”
"Mu Li, you and I go to the city wall to see the situation. Nalan Jinxiu is still wearing men's clothes, walking in style, and there is no trace of girlishness in her gestures.
She looked condescendingly, there was a person on the side, but she couldn't see the situation clearly because the curtain was over. She suddenly had a thought in her heart, that is, could the person here not be Tuoba Tao?
"Mu Li, I don't think the guards around Bu Ji are particularly tight. ”
"Subordinates try. Mu Li took the bow and arrow and shot it at the bright yellow step, but of course the arrow was stopped.
But at this moment, Nalan Jinxiu had already determined that the person in the step was indeed not Tuoba Tao. Because when the arrow was fired, the people inside moved a few times in succession, obviously panicking.
Tuoba Tao would not be scared like this by an arrow. Sure enough, it was a trick. If Tuoba Tao knew where his brother was, and his troops were scattered, wouldn't his brother be dangerous?
"Anshi, is there no news yet?"
An Shi shook his head, he didn't know why the county lord looked solemn, but he faintly felt that it was not very good.
"You and Mu Libing are divided into two ways, now take people to the garrison, let them start to encircle immediately, remember to bring people you trust. ”
She can't be blamed for being suspicious, she now suspects that there must be a ghost in the Xuanjia Army. Otherwise, how could Tuoba Tao be so coincidental and know his brother and her plans.
"County Lord...... "Now that the soldiers are coming to the city, Mu Li doesn't want to leave her an inch.
"Rest assured, they won't act rashly until something happens to their brother. As long as you get back as soon as possible, I'll be fine. ”
Mu Li was still a little hesitant, he wanted to take her with him. Nalan Jinxiu could only smile at him, and patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to leave now.
After An Shi and Mu left, she returned to the table to prepare her own medicinal powder. She has been studying for a long time, and each time she is only a little short, hoping that this time she can succeed, then they will have a chance to turn the tables.
said that the Beiyan people would not attack the city, but in fact, she was lying to Mu Li. She will definitely succeed, she feels that the potential of people is unlimited, and when she forces herself to the point of no return, there will definitely be new gains.
After the powder was mixed this time, she experimented with mice, and the result was done. She took a large packet of powdered medicine and went to the edge of the city wall. The battle was fierce at this time, and the Northern Yan people had already put ladders on the city walls, and the city gates were also in danger.
Nalan Jinxiu asked everyone to put on masks, and then distributed the powder and threw it into Beiyan's team in the form of a package. The Northern Yan people were defenseless, and as a result, the team was in chaos all of a sudden.
The powder is limited, and the people who smell it are also limited, but the range is not small. And all of a sudden, all five senses will make them particularly flustered.
The Xuanjia army on the city wall didn't know what the situation was, but they found that now was a good opportunity to fight back. In order to have greater anti-kill power, rockets were used.
Nalan Jinxiu watched from the city wall, and the following turned into a sea of fire, all of which were the wails of people. She is a healer, and she has always been committed to curing diseases and saving people, and now she looks at the people below her like this, and there is no trace of joy in her heart.
It is said that it will be a success, and ten thousand bones will wither, I wonder if Tuoba Tao will feel a little guilty if he sees the scene in front of him? Nalan Jinxiu closed his eyes and looked at the crazy form of those Beiyan people who had not inhaled the medicinal powder, and the attack was even more ferocious.
The people around him were hit by arrows, but they still insisted on drawing their bows. Nalan Jinxiu took the bow and arrow and took his place.
An Shi once told her that when shooting arrows, you should imagine the other party as a lion, and if you can't kill with one arrow, you will inevitably die. Therefore, the arrow must be released quickly, without a little hesitation.
She hadn't killed anyone, but now that she's on the battlefield, she has to overcome it. She tried to see if she could do it, but after a long hesitation, the arrow still didn't come out.
The word murder is easier said than done. While she was struggling, a pair of wide, slender hands grabbed her and took away the bow and arrow from her hand.
She turned around and saw Ji Hongxuan dressed in a military uniform, looking at her with a frown. She didn't expect to see him at this time, and said happily, "Why are you here?"
"Brother is afraid that you won't be able to cope with it alone, so let me come over to help you. ”
"What about him?"
"I don't know. ”
Nalan Jinxiu frowned: "Didn't you see him?"
"Nope. As Ji Hongxuan spoke, there were already Beiyan soldiers climbing up from the ladder. He drew the scimitar from his waist and stabbed the man in the heart with great speed.
His movements were like flowing water, clean and neat, without hesitation, Nalan Jinxiu was dumbfounded. She remembered that he fought with Mu Li two years ago, and he still couldn't catch a single move, how could he make rapid progress now?
Ji Hongxuan pulled her behind him and stood in her position. Nalan Jinxiu still couldn't react, and always felt that he was far from what she remembered. Maybe the battlefield is really the place where people grow the fastest.
"What do you use for these people, I see them like headless flies. "The blade of Ji Hongxuan's scimitar is particularly clear, even if he has just killed someone, the blade is not stained with blood.
"It's my homemade powder. ”
"Go get it again. Ji Hongxuan's hand didn't stop, and the whole person seemed to be very indifferent when he started.
"No more. Nalan Jinxiu was powerless to explain, this medicinal powder originally consumed a variety of medicinal materials, and there was a kind of butterfly flower that was very rare.
"There are so many people on the other side, and we can only resign ourselves to fate. ”
There are a large number of people in Beiyan, but because most of them have lost all their senses now, they can't take down the city for a while. Ji Hongxuan looked at it and was not a way to stick to it, in case those people recovered, it would be troublesome.
"How long does your medicine last?"
"Three or four hours is no problem. ”
"Okay, that's enough. Ji Hongxuan put away the scimitar, and then asked his own soldiers around him to count the number of people, and he only left a small number of people to defend the city.
Nalan Jinxiu saw his intentions and stopped: "You wait a little longer, I have already let An Shi and Mu leave......"
"Don't miss the opportunity, you won't miss it. Go back and stay there, and don't stand on the wall again. Ji Hongxuan was about to go down and was not at ease, so he could only let the two pro-soldiers around him be optimistic about Nalan Jinxiu.
Nalan Jinxiu was taken back to the house by the two, she didn't know what was going on outside, and she was impetuous. I wanted to go out and have a look several times, but I was stopped by these two people. They had a cold face and looked like they didn't eat oil and salt.
"You don't want to know what's going on outside?"
The two men looked at each other, obviously wondering, but they had to stay in the room because of the order.
"Now that the situation outside is tense, you don't go out to help, and you still watch over me and don't let me go. Do you think you're sorry for the people out there?"
Seeing that the two of them were still unmoved, Nalan Jinxiu could only retreat: "It's better to go out together, you follow me, protect me if you are in danger, it is not considered to disobey the military order!"
They are all young boys, and they are the most foolish, and they finally went out with Nalan Jinxiu. It's just that the two of them are very nervous about her, and they refuse to leave for a moment.
Nalan Jinxiu was looking for Ji Hongxuan, his scimitar was dazzling, and he could see it at a glance in the crowd. The once brightest boy in the Ji Mansion has now been baptized into an excellent general.
His future should be only war. Thinking like this, she felt a little distressed again. He probably didn't even notice it himself, but he rarely smiled now, and his eyes became cold.
Ji Hongxuan's situation below, which was not optimistic, was quickly reversed, because Mu Li and An Shi brought reinforcements back. This time, the 30,000 people poked in front of the door were inescapable in the true sense of the word.
"Can you see my brother?" asked Nalan Jinxiu as soon as she saw Mu Li.
Mu Li shook his head.
"What do his people say?" Xu Jince has a small team of shocking clouds by his side, all of whom have excellent skills, and he shouldn't have an accident easily.
"I didn't see a single one, and the group of people in the world seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. ”
"How is it possible?" Nalan Jinxiu's uneasiness in her heart became even worse, she reluctantly allowed herself to stabilize her mind, and said to Mu Li, "You call An Shi to me." ”
Now that the Xuanjia Army has the upper hand, it is absolutely impossible for me to know that my brother is missing, otherwise it will definitely shake the morale of the army. Based on her observations over the past few days, the Xuanjia Army is very dependent on her brother, and this matter will definitely make them chaotic.
An Shi thought the same as Nalan Jinxiu, and he also felt that at this kind of juncture, it was impossible for the prince to leave it alone. He hasn't shown up for so long, something must have happened.
For so many years, the son of the world has been his spiritual pillar. No matter what difficult situation he faces, as long as he is there, he will definitely be able to save the day. So An Shi was also a little panicked at this time.
"You give orders down and let them fight quickly. "If it is late, things will change, and the war must end quickly.
"If they ask about the world, how will I answer?"
"Let's just say that the son of the world has been seriously injured and is now recuperating with me. ”
An Shi felt that those generals were not so easy to fool.
Nalan Jinxiu's attitude was very determined: "If you really can't stand it, let them come to see me, I have a way to deal with it." ”
