Chapter Seventy-Two: Escape
In a large camp outside the White Night City of the Northern Wilderness, two soldiers of the Northern Wilderness were reporting the battle situation to Yeluya.
"Your Highness, there are too many people on the other side, and White Night City can't be attacked, and now we are running out of food and grass, so we can only hold out for another three days at most."
Yeluya slammed the table hatefully, making a loud "bang" sound, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he said angrily: "Didn't you say before that Gong Xiyang was dragged down by the battle for the throne and had no time to take care of White Night City, we were like a broken bamboo in the daytime, and the enemy was losing and retreating, why was it only a few days, where did Gong Xiyang transfer so many elite soldiers from?" Could it be that he can still mobilize heavenly soldiers and generals?! ”
The soldier replied: "I see that those elite soldiers, all of them are agile and good at using hidden weapons, they don't look like soldiers, but like martial arts killers." The leader of them is even more skilled, killing one person in ten steps. ”
Yeluya raised his eyes and glared at him, "Ten steps to kill one?" With 3,000 iron cavalry, can't we deal with less than 1,000 elite soldiers?! ”
"Your Highness, the secret weapon they used was really unguardable, and before the soldiers got close, the secret weapon took their lives first, and they were too despicable to apply poison to the secret weapon, and as soon as the soldiers touched the poison, it was nothing at first, but soon it was itchy and unbearable, and they couldn't fight anymore."
The corners of Yeluya's eyes narrowed slightly, and a streamer crossed her eyes, "Hidden weapon? I'm going to meet them. ”
"Your Highness, don't be impulsive, you are the commander, if something happens to you, our whole army will be finished!" The soldiers hurriedly dragged him and begged him not to leave the barracks.
Yeluya shook him off vigorously and said indignantly: "I won't go into battle, waiting for you to find a solution for me?!" ”
"Your Highness! Your Highness! The soldiers in the battalion knelt down in unison, "Your Highness, please stay!" ”
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared outside the camp tent and slowly spoke: "Hitomi, you can't go to the battlefield. ”
Yeluya was stunned when he saw the visitor, and blurted out: "Master? ”
I saw Wei Shaoqing swinging a wheelchair into the camp tent, looked around at the soldiers kneeling on the ground, and smiled at Yeluya: "You see everyone is worried about your safety, if the main general is not there, what will you do with this entire army?" Don't be willful for a while, the battlefield is not a child's play, why don't you let them get up quickly? ”
Yeluya gritted his teeth and said, "Get up." ”
Wei Shaoqing nodded with satisfaction, "That's right." Well, you don't have to be impatient, I already know everything. Don't worry about the matter of food and grass, I will call someone to solve it. Those elite soldiers in White Night City are not heavenly soldiers, they are Bian Che's people, he sent Ye Jiu to help Gong Xiyang, those hidden weapons are probably also from Qianji Building, the soldiers have not seen it, so they naturally don't know how to deal with it. ”
Yeluya looked stunned, "Bian Che? Why did he help Gong Xiyang? ”
Wei Shaoqing pondered: "I don't know what his relationship with Gong Xiyang is, but since he sent Ye Jiu, it shows that he has a lot to do with Gong Xiyang." No matter who the other party is, if he stands in our way, then he is our enemy. I will find a way to restrain that secret weapon and an antidote as soon as possible, so don't be impatient and don't act recklessly. Remember, you are the hope of the royal family of Jeonbuk Wilderness. Wei Shaoqing's last sentence was very slow, but it was loud.
Yeluya clenched his fists tightly and said in a muffled voice, "The disciple knows." Then he glanced at Wei Shaoqing and asked, "The master has inconvenient legs and feet, why did he come all the way to the Northern Wilderness?" Why don't you wait for my news in the capital? ”
Wei Shaoqing smiled meaningfully, "Since the revelation of the Divine Soldier Tree, Gao Li knew that I had been using him, so he came to seek revenge on me, Bian Che hated me for moving his woman, and also wanted to kill me, even the pavilion master of Hanjiang Pavilion, Jiang Qihan, sent someone to check on me, Rong Xi Manor and outside are all my enemies, I came this time, one is to take refuge in my apprentice, and the other is to help you capture White Night City." ”
Yeluya's face suddenly became very bad, and he said unhappily: "It's good for the master to move anyone, if it's not good for Qi Niang again, the master won't blame the apprentice for turning his face with the master." ”
The corners of Wei Shaoqing's mouth hooked, as if he didn't care much, and then he put away his smile, "Hitomi, Ye Qiniang is not someone you should love, you can't love her." ”
"Why? Whoever I love is my freedom, so I don't have to worry about the master for me. The master is tired of traveling, so let's go and rest first. Saying that, Yeluya said to the soldiers beside him: "Take my master down to rest." ”
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and Yeluya sat in the tent, sleepless for a moment, and occasionally the wounded soldiers wailed outside, which was particularly bleak in the silent night. An arrow suddenly flew in with a whizz and landed on the pillar. Yeluya hurriedly took down the arrow, only to see a note nailed to the arrow, he unfolded it suspiciously, and the words on it were dragons and phoenixes, and asked him to meet him in the back mountain.
Yeluya hurriedly went to the appointment, and saw Ye Jiu standing alone on the mountain from a distance.
"This is the enemy camp, you came so single-handedly, aren't you afraid of being ambushed by me? If you fall into my hands, your elite soldiers will be headless flies. Yeluya stood ten steps away from him, staring at Ye Jiudao tightly.
"Since I'm here, I'm not afraid that I'll fall into your hands, and you won't call someone to arrest me now, after all, I still have what you want in my hands." Ye Jiu said without hurry.
"What about faith? Give me! Jeregia stretched out his hand.
Ye Jiu took out a letter from his clothes, Ye Luya grabbed it, and said with a smile: "You can go, next time you and I will see you on the battlefield!" ”
Ye Jiu looked at him and said: "Qi Niang and me, Ye Sixteen are close friends, now the landlord has trapped Qi Niang in Qianji Building, restricting all correspondence, she has to pass on the news through Ye Sixteen and me, Qi Niang is worried about you, I don't want you to be hostile to Qianji Building, if you still want to go back to see her alive, just give up." ”
There was a hint of mockery on Yeluya's face, "Give up? I've finally come to this point, how can I give up so easily. Besides, it is impossible to say who will lose or win on the battlefield! ”
"Sixteen have checked you, you only started practicing martial arts at the age of thirteen, your body was extremely weak before, Wei Shaoqing gave you the Tengyun Immortal Pill of the Medicine King Valley in order to change your root bones, although it can make up for your shortcomings, but because you are still late in practicing martial arts, your foundation is not strong, even if you take the pill, you can't compare with me who has practiced martial arts since childhood, do you really want to compete with me on the battlefield?"
Ye Luya sneered: "Have you stayed by Bian Che's side for a long time, and you are so conceited when you speak." The battlefield is not a river and lake, if you talk nonsense, you won't be able to leave if I change my mind later. ”
Ye Jiu looked at him expressionlessly and said, "I'm just giving you a piece of advice, fighting against the landlord is generally not going to end well." ”
"Hugh is going to be verbose!"
Ye Jiu knew that he couldn't persuade him, and since Qi Niang's letter had been handed over to him, he didn't plan to entangle him any more, so he turned around and left. Unexpectedly, the back mountain, which was originally pitch black, suddenly turned on several lights, and a group of people surrounded them, only to see Wei Shaoqing appearing in front of the crowd with a wheelchair.
Wei Shaoqing smiled at Ye Jiu and said, "Commander Ye Jiu, it's so late, what's the matter with coming to my family?" ”
Ye Jiu glanced at Wei Shaoqing and the others, and said to Yeluya: "Offended!" As he spoke, he pushed out a palm to Yeluya, who was a few steps away from him, and he didn't know how much strength he used, Yeluya only felt that his internal organs seemed to have been moved to a position, and then he was inserted into the heart by a sharp knife. Ye Jiu took advantage of the situation and fled from the back mountain.
Yeluya's eyes were dark and he fell to the ground instantly, only to hear the shouts of the soldiers gradually become smaller.
In the middle of the night, Qi Niang was woken up by a rapid knock on the door, she quickly got up to open the door, and when she saw that it was Ye Sixteen, she immediately invited her in and closed the door.
"What's the matter, Little Sixteen, you came to me so late, but what's the news over there in the Northern Wilderness?" Qi Niang grabbed Ye Sixteen's arm with an eager look. Intuition told Qi Niang Ye Sixteen that he came to inform himself about Yeluya, and this is all three watches, there must be something urgent.
"Three days ago, Brother Jiu went to deliver a letter to Yeluya for you, and Wei Shaoqing knew about it, and Brother Jiu had to hurt Yeluya in order to escape from them. Later, I got the news that Gong Xiyang ordered to take Yeluya's head, and the ninth brother, as the commander-in-chief, could only take this order. And now that Yeluya's army has suffered heavy casualties, Gong Xiyang will definitely take the opportunity to kill him. ”
Qi Niang suddenly slumped on the chair, her face was panicked, and then she picked up her sword, stood up and said, "I'm not worried, I'm going to the Northern Wilderness." ”
Ye Sixteen hurriedly grabbed her, and said anxiously: "Qi Niang, the landlord said that you can't go anywhere, if you leave the Qianji Building now, isn't it disobedient to the landlord?" And Yeluya is the enemy of Qianjilou, if you go like this, it will be equivalent to betraying Qianjilou, I can't let you go. ”
"Yeluya is injured, how can I sit here and wait, I can't wait for a moment, I have to see him with my own eyes to feel at ease, even if he doesn't listen to my persuasion to retire, I have to stay by his side to protect him. Little Sixteen, you help me one last time, help me leave the Thousand Machine Building. Qi Niang held Ye Sixteen's hand and spoke earnestly.
Ye Sixteen broke free of Qi Niang's hand, the two beautiful eyebrows frowned into a line, and his face was entangled, "It's okay to help you send a letter, but help you with this, I can't promise you, it's about your safety, and Brother Jiu will definitely not let you go to danger." ”
"Little Sixteen, please, now only you can help me escape, Yeluya is my only relative in the world, I can't leave him alone. If he dies, I won't be able to live alone. I'm not trying to betray Qianjilou, I just want Yeluya to live well. Little Sixteen, help me. Qi Niang looked at her eagerly.
Ye Sixteen saw that he couldn't help her, stomped his foot fiercely, and said: "Oh, I'll help you this time for the last time, don't you really betray Qianjilou, otherwise I can't save you if I want to." ”
Qi Niang was overjoyed, "Thank you, Little Sixteen." ”
"I'll help you find a night guard's clothes, you're waiting for me here." Ye Sixteen said that, and quietly left Qi Niang's room.
Qi Niang fidgeted in the room for a long time, only to see Ye Sixteen come back, she handed her the clothes of the night guard, and said solemnly: "There is my fast horse outside the Qianji Building, it is ready for you, oh, this is the clothes, you must come back safely!" If you have any accidents, not only will I be sad, but Brother Jiu will definitely scold me to death. ”
"Thank you, Sixteen, I really don't know how I would have left the Thousand Machine Building without you." Qi Niang looked at her with gratitude in her eyes.
Ye Sixteen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, you have thanked me twice, if you really thank me, don't go, but I know that Yeluya is very important to you, and you must not feel at ease if you don't go." But you must remember that Brother Jiu and I will always support you! Landlord, I'll try my best to help you hold it off so that he won't find out so early. ”
Qi Niang nodded heavily, "Hmm! ”
