Chapter 396: The Minister of the Imperial Mission
Running all the way back, the matter of Bai Yingping has not yet been seen, and now that something is happening here, it is really a long night. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Hearing that a soldier died inexplicably, the soldiers crowded on the mountain road around the mountain looked a little panicked, and they all discussed-
"What! Dead? ”
"How did you die? Figured it out? ”
"Do you still need to figure it out? It must have been killed by Xiao Luan."
......
A white-robed soldier guessed that it was Xiao Luan Guo who did it, but there was no way to know how he died.
Ye Cheng was a little frowning, judging from the situation of going up the mountain just now, the dozen or so soldiers guarding the foot of the mountain were hiding behind trees, and they should not be discovered under the favorable conditions of pitch black, unless they jumped out by themselves, just like just now.
But if this is the case, there should be more people who died, and there should not be only one, and the soldier also said that the soldier died inexplicably.
Based on these characteristics, coupled with the information that was known in the Lai family's military camp, Ye Cheng came up with one that the person who killed the soldiers was - Night Evil!
If it's really a night fire, it's dangerous, and many of the soldiers here must know how terrible the night fire is, and if you say it, it will definitely cause panic, but if you don't say it and make everyone more vigilant, when the night fire kills quietly, more people will die.
After some consideration, Ye Cheng still decided to speak out, so he said: "Everyone, although we can't be sure yet, there is a night evil in Xiaoluan Country, and I am afraid that the dead soldiers will be killed by the night evil, so we must be vigilant, pay attention to the people around us, as long as there is any movement, immediately notify the people around us, or shout loudly."
Ye Cheng has no officials and no positions, only the three brothers of the Lai family, Yue Yu and a small number of white-robed soldiers, knowing that he was sent by Cao Rou, the newly enthroned emperor, and the Yue family soldiers and most of the white-robed soldiers around him didn't know, so they all showed a look of surprise, looked at it, and discussed-
"Who is he? Why call the shots here? ”
"Could it be an official sent by Tianyun?"
"How is it possible, you see that he is wearing the armor of Xiao Luanguo, will he be a captured prisoner?"
......
The more the soldier guessed, the more outrageous it became, and he directly said that Ye Cheng was a soldier of Xiao Luan Kingdom, which was all because he only ran wildly along the way and did not take off this heavy armor.
As a general of the first army, Yue Yu naturally needs to stand up and explain, and Ye Cheng's armor saved his life, he can't let the soldiers slander Ye Cheng so much, so he explained: "Don't guess, he is the minister sent by the emperor, and he gathered me and the three generals of the Lai family to rush to the front line to resist the invasion of Xiaoluan Kingdom."
As soon as these words came out, the road around the mountain was quiet, and only the "rustle" sound of leaves being blown by the wind remained. The soldiers looked at each other with awe-struck looks, their heads slightly bowed, full of respect.
Ye Cheng felt flattered, what kind of minister? He is a messenger, but the ministers in history are indeed the ones who help the emperor, and this is still a temporary position, which is exactly the same as the current situation.
But even if he sent the message, he always remembered the oath he made in the Tianyun Imperial Court - for the sake of those children planned by the gods, he would definitely kill Chen Gong with his own hands.
Speaking of the God-man plan, I wonder what happened to those three children now? Ye Cheng looked at General Li and asked, "General Li, may I ask how the three children were doing when you came back?" ”
"They have woken up and are now in a house halfway up the mountain, under the care of the three girls"
"Is there a ...... then," Ye Cheng asked in a panic.
Li Zhengyuan guessed what Ye Cheng was worried about, interrupted Ye Cheng, and then explained: "You don't have to worry, the three children are very calm, and the three girls are not in danger"
Ye Cheng took a deep breath, knowing that they were fine, he could rest assured.
"What are you talking about?" Yue Yu asked with some confusion.
Yue Yu didn't know about the godman's plan, it would take some time to explain, and the situation under the mountain seemed to be more anxious, Ye Cheng thought about it for a while, and said, "General Yue, let's go down the mountain to have a look, let's talk as we walk"
"Okay" Yue Yu didn't forget what Ye Cheng mentioned about the Night Evil just now, looked down at Fu Ling, and said softly: "Ling'er, you stay here and organize them to prevent the Night Evil's sneak attack, you yourself should be careful"
"Hmm" Although Fu Ling is petite and looks like a girl, she is mature in her heart and knows what to do and what not to do.
……
Back at the intersection of the mountain and the mountain, ten soldiers formed a circle, facing outward, with their hands on guard in front of them, and at the same time a little panicked, one of the soldiers saw Li Zhengyuan wearing soft armor, and immediately ran over in a panic and said: "General Li, it's not good, another soldier has died"
Li Zhengyuan quickened his pace and ran over, squatting next to the two corpses, "Hurry up and light the torch"
The two soldiers around didn't know where to get two torches, lit them, and held them above the corpse's head, and Li Zhengyuan relied on the firelight to examine them carefully.
And Ye Cheng stood aside and saw that the white robes on the two white-robed soldiers had been soaked red with blood, turning from white to red, and there were all kinds of cracks on them, as if they had been cut by some weapon.
When Li Zhengyuan tore off the white robe along the crack, revealing most of the soldier's skin, he saw a large number of wounds on the skin, and these wounds were obviously turned over, revealing the flesh and blood inside.
The most fatal wound is probably the wound on the neck, the wound is narrow and long, about one-third the length of the neck, and the wound has also been turned over, revealing the flesh inside, which is very terrifying.
"To be able to kill a person so cruelly, except for the night demon without seven emotions and six desires, imagine who else can do it" Ye Cheng said in a low voice.
Yue Yu heard it and replied, "This world is not only so cruel in the night, some people who seem to be kind-faced do things that are even more cruel than this"
Ye Cheng looked at Yue Yu, he always felt that there was something in these words, so let's not investigate the other meaning of these words, as far as he knew, Chen Gong belonged to this kind of person.
Chen Gong looks like a smiling old man, but he is also the mastermind behind the god-man plan, such a person is the smiling tiger.
After Li Zhengyuan finished the inspection, he stood up, looked at the brightly lit enemy camp in the distance with a solemn face, and did not speak for a long time.
Ye Cheng leaned over strangely and asked, "General Li, what's the matter?" ”
Li Zhengyuan groaned and said, "They died from the wound on their necks, but their bodies were still suffering from heart-piercing pain before they died."
"General Li, what do you mean by that?" Ye Cheng asked.
"The weapon that killed them was coated with a highly poisonous ......"
