Chapter Twenty-Nine: Something Goes Wrong
"Look, a team of horses is coming, you go and report to your lordship." A soldier pointed to a team of horses galloping in the distance and hurried to the soldiers beside him.
The adult in their mouths is Zhang Lin, the deputy commander of the army stationed outside Luochuan County, and he is also the younger brother of Commander Zhang.
"Newspaper. Lord Qiqi, a team of horses is rushing in the distance. Zhang Lin, who was resting, heard a report from his subordinates outside the door, and after putting on his helmet, he hurriedly picked up his sword, lifted the tent and walked out.
"Tell everyone, get ready, I'll go and see first." After saying to the soldiers who reported next to the camp tent, Zhang Lin hurriedly walked over with a big stride.
With a loud and anxious trumpet, the soldiers of the barracks, with their weapons in hand, ran towards the door.
The sound of the horse's hooves is getting closer and closer, Zhang Lin took the soldiers next to him and threw out the torches in his hands, and the soldiers behind him have drawn the bows and arrows into an arc, waiting for the order of their adults, as long as Zhang Lin gives an order, these arrows will shoot out without hesitation, and they are guaranteed to shoot you into a hornet's nest.
The torches kept rolling in the air, and in the firelight, everyone could see clearly, these galloping horse teams, there was no one on horseback, Zhang Lin felt that the leading horses felt so familiar, he had definitely seen them.
The horses ran at the gate of the barracks and stopped, Zhang Lin saw clearly at this time, the leading horse was really his brother's beloved horse Hongfeng, looking at the blood on Hongfeng's body, could it be that his brother had an accident?
The blood all over the ground stained the whole land red.
The guards were constantly resisting the attacks of the wolves, and the people were numb, and they could not remember how many attacks the wolves had launched, and in this life-and-death battle with the wolves, the guards had obviously fallen into disadvantage, and their morale had already become very decadent as they watched their companions continue to be injured.
Chen Yi, who picked up the sword, stood among the guards, looking out of place, especially eye-catching.
The bodies of the guards are very strong, and the slender Chen Yi stands in the guards, like a little green among the thousands of flowers, looking like a master of the world, if you look closely, you will find that Chen Yi's legs are shaking slightly.
In the face of those fierce, cruel, and cunning wolves, his heart beat a drum, his heart beat non-stop, and the weapons raised in his hands also shook non-stop, and the dog standing next to him, maybe his father was a hunter, so he was not as nervous as Chen Yi in the face of the wolves, in order to give himself courage, Chen Yi roared loudly the poems that he had had had been bloody in his previous life, "The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return. The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, and the warriors are guarding the four directions." After Chen Yi finished roaring, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and the placket of her clothes fluttered in the wind, and Luo Xiaodie suddenly felt that her hero of the world appeared.
After hearing this, the people present thought of their partners who were still talking and laughing with them today, but in the blink of an eye, they lost their lives because of this group of hateful beasts, and felt that they were very aggrieved in their hearts, and a raging fire burned in their hearts, and the guards in their hands heard this song, picked up their weapons, and walked to Chen Yi's side step by step, they wanted to fight side by side with their partners, and they wanted to avenge their partners, and they didn't want to be a burden to their partners.
The wolves around them attacked again.
"Avenge the dead partner, let's kill all the brutes raised by these bitches today."
"Kill"
Chen Yi looked at the oncoming wolves, suddenly shrugged up, looked at Luo Xiaodie who was in a daze, thought that Luo Xiaodie was moved by his talent, and quietly leaned over to Luo Xiaodie's side.
Luo Xiaodie saw Chen Yi running secretly, and knew that he must be afraid of death, so he ran back, he was just blind, and he despised Chen Yi in his heart I don't know how many times.
"Miss Luo, I'm afraid that you will get hurt later, so I came to protect you, you can rest assured that I am here." The brazen Chen Yi was still looking forward to whether Luo Xiaodie would be moved by himself when he spoke. "Coward, obviously I'm afraid of death, what do you say to protect me, do you think I don't know my aunt?" Luo Xiaodie put her right hand on her waist and almost pointed at Chenyi's nose and scolded.
"How can you think of me like that? Am I a timid person who is afraid of death? I'm so sad, so sad. Chen Yi covered his heart and pretended to be in pain, his face couldn't help but turn red, and he also felt that he was panicked, fortunately it was night, and no one saw it.
Eventually, the guards were defeated, and some fell back in the way of resistance, and the people gradually retreated, seeing that the encirclement of the wolves was getting smaller and smaller.
"Fathers, mothers, and daughters are not filial, and they can't be filial by your side." Luo Xiaodie cried sadly, and Liang'er also cried with her young lady.
"I'm sorry, if you hadn't been there to pick me up, you wouldn't have lost your life for this." Luo Xiaodie bowed deeply to the guards.
"Miss, what are you talking about, the head has a big scar on the head, we were originally the ones who added the knife on the back, but unfortunately we can't repay the kindness of the handsome."
"Commander Zhang, if there is an afterlife, we are here to repay the kindness of the marshal." The guards, who were wounded and could not stand up, stood up with the support of their partners, unable to hold their weapons in their hands, tore their clothes, tied their weapons to their arms with strips of cloth, and died in the way of attack.
Watching the wolves get closer and closer, I can't understand why the wolves are so desperate, not chasing the fleeing horses, but chasing the people, Chen Yi knows that there must be a demon when something goes wrong, Chen Yi faintly feels that he should have missed some important clues.
Luo Xiaodie looked at Chen Yi beside her, turned around and walked to the carriage, and saw Chen Yi slashing with his sword, if it weren't for himself, the two of them might not lose their lives with him, and the guards saw that their young lady didn't speak, in their opinion, Chen Yi slashed maybe he was venting his feelings.
Is Chen Yi chopping?
Of course not, Chen Yi is familiar with the structure of the ancient carriage, it seems that every time he is chopping indiscriminately, he is actually cut at the weakest place of the carriage body, and it is also the place where things can be hidden the most, and after a while, there was a loud noise, and the carriage was already dismantled by Chen Yi and scattered on the ground. Tatsumi noticed that nothing special appeared on the carriage.
Could it be that I was wrong?
Chen Yi threw the sword in his hand forward, and the iron sword accidentally fell on the frame of the carriage with a crisp sound.
Wait, this sound is not right, this place is hollow, picked up the sword in his hand and slashed it hard, the frame was split, there were many granular objects inside, Chen Yi pretended to take the sword, took the powder in the wood in his hand and smelled it, there was a special smell and fragrance, and picked up a stack of solid wood from his side and smelled it, there was still the same smell, this smell is so familiar, it seems that I have smelled it somewhere, but I can't remember it.
"Be careful, everyone, they're going to attack" Chen Yi turned his head and saw that something was vaguely wrong with the wolves. Could it be that someone really wants to be bad for Luo Xiaodie, no, remembering that Luo Xiaodie's father was unconscious for no reason a few days ago, could someone be bad for the Luo family? Chen Yi felt that there was a hand behind his back that was controlling all this.
I went to some white powder, wrapped it in my purse, and buried it not far from the carriage with an iron sword, if I could get out alive, for the sake of those dead guards, I must also find out, I can't let them die in vain.
With an iron sword, he cut off the sleeves of his clothes, put them in the pile of wood that had been cut by himself, took out the fire fold from his arms, and removed the lid, and at night he could see the red bright spots on the fold faintly burning, like an ember in the ashes, Chen Yi blew a few times with his mouth, and faint flames appeared on the fold, swaying from side to side, as if it was about to be extinguished at any time.
Bending down, he placed the fire fold on his clothes, and the pale yellow flame ignited his clothes like maggots that attached to the bones and burned the entire wood pair.
"Come and retreat to the fire." Chen Yi shouted to the guards, and when he saw the raging fire, the guards wanted to get closer to the fire, and the fire lit up a clearing very brightly.
Chen Yi took advantage of the firelight, carefully observed the wolves surrounding him, and found that as long as he could see the wolves, each wolf's wolf paw had a special mark on the front paw, it seemed that he was not wrong in his analysis, someone was behind the scenes to operate all this.
