His eyesight gradually deteriorated, and his strength was unconsciously withdrawn from his body, and in the early May, which can only be called cool and can no longer be called cold, Wei Hu felt like a 10,000-year-old ice cave, and his body was cold.

Sleepy, the sudden sleepiness invaded his consciousness, as long as he squinted, he seemed to be able to fall asleep, forever. Wei Hu knew this very well, he knew that as long as he closed his eyes at this moment, he would never be able to open them again.

Maybe he Wei Hu can't be called a big hero with a reputation all over the world, but death is not terrible for him.

The eldest husband will die, why be afraid?!

But not yet, he Wei Hu still has unfinished business, and he still has an unfulfilled promise??

[Ah Yang?? Ah sheep??]

With only this single thought circling in his mind, Wei Hu stimulated his nerves with the pain of biting the tip of his tongue, forcing himself to squeeze out the last bit of strength and consciousness. Due to the massive blood loss, even if he almost bit the tip of his tongue off and his mouth was full of blood, the pain that gradually faded was not enough to stimulate his spirits.

He has reached the limit of running out of oil and lamps!

He needs more intense pain!

"Poof—"

A sharp blade pierced Wei Hu's body, and the intense pain that penetrated his body made Wei Hu's spirit gradually appear drowsy.

He looked up and looked at the man who had hurt his body, a man who looked like a military general, with a look that did not look like a living person.

[Who is this guy??] Oh, I remember, it's a military general named Zhao Cheng under Wei Zhuang, right? - Probably??]

Because of the excessive blood loss, Wei Hu's consciousness reaction was obviously much slower than usual, but he still remembered the person who attacked and stabbed him.

Of course, the word sneak attack is only for him Wei Hu, but for Zhao Cheng. Wei Hu is obviously a great credit for sending it to the door himself.

I remember that Wei Zhuang had instructed Zhao Cheng to find the place where the withered sheep was imprisoned, and after finding it, he killed it and blamed Wei Hu and the Jinling army, but Zhao Cheng took advantage of the chaos in the city to enter the city guard. After searching for a long time, I couldn't find the cellar where the withered sheep were kept. In a hurry, Zhao Cheng set fire to the city guard mansion without saying a word. After all, Wei Zhuang said first, if he couldn't find the dead sheep, he set fire to the entire city guard, and burned the dead sheep alive in it, even if it couldn't be burned to death, the dead sheep would be buried deep in the ashes and ruins.

And when Zhao Cheng perfectly fulfilled Wei Zhuang's orders and was about to retreat while the chaos was in place, he was shocked to see it. Wei Hu, the commander of the Jinling Taiping Army, staggered towards the city guard mansion step by step alone.

If it was Wei Hu on weekdays, Zhao Cheng would definitely turn around and flee, after all, with his martial arts, even if four or five were tied together, he would not be the opponent of Wei Hu, the first brave general of the younger generation of the Taiping Army. But as for Wei Hu at the moment??

Seeing Wei Hu covered in blood and staggering. Zhao Cheng was overjoyed, after all, this was a great achievement.

Without thinking about it, Zhao Cheng rushed forward in a few steps and pierced Wei Hu's chest with the sword in his hand.

Smooth, so smooth??

It may be that Wei Hu's injuries are too serious. So much so that when Zhao Cheng's sword pierced into his body, the former didn't even react in the slightest.

It's true, there is not even the slightest reaction, as if his Zhao Cheng's sword has only pierced a lifeless corpse??

What's more, Wei Hu in front of him raised his head. When he looked at Zhao Cheng with eyes that were not like living people, Zhao Cheng subconsciously held his breath in shock.

[That??] Is it really the eyes of a living person? ――Is this guy a human or a ghost right now? ]

In all fairness, Zhao Cheng is also an excellent general, and he has participated in many battles when he has followed Wei Zhuang for a long time, although he is not as good as Fei Guo, Ma Dan, Liao Li and others in the Zhou army, but it is enough to compare Su Xin, Li Jing and other generals who are good at fighting, and they are all better. However, at this moment, Zhao Cheng was sincerely frightened, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva, only to feel a slight coolness in his heart.

Zhao Cheng, who was terrified in his heart, desperately wanted to pull out his blade and cut off Wei Hu's head, after all, in the eyes of these generals, whether it was a human or a monster, as long as they cut off their heads, it would be difficult to live anymore.

However, at the moment when he drew his sword, a bloody hand grabbed the sharp blade of the sword, and the terror was by no means like the strength that the world should have.

[Oh my God, this guy grabbed the edge of the sword??]

Zhao Cheng was so shocked that he almost stared out of his eyes, you must know that he grabbed the hilt of the sword, while Wei Hu grabbed the blade, but the result was that no matter how hard he tried, Wei Hu did not move at all.

"Let go! Let go! Because of his panic, Zhao Cheng actually forgot that he could let go and withdraw his sword, and desperately dragged the sharp sword that was grabbed by Wei Hu.

Warm blood trickled down the blade, but Wei Hu didn't notice it.

The sharp blade not only cut through the flesh of his hand, but also sank deep into it, stuck on his slightly pale phalange, and the click of the blade against the bone could not help but make people feel creepy.

“??” Zhao Cheng was stunned, it was hard to imagine that he could be regarded as a battle-hardened person, and at this moment, he would be frightened by a dying person, his whole body was weak, his legs could not move, and he watched Wei Hu slowly pounce on him and bite his neck.

"Ahh Zhao Cheng howled in pain, the intense pain finally brought him back to his senses, who was stunned by Wei Hu, after kicking Wei Hu to the ground, he covered his injured neck and took a few steps back, pointed at Wei Hu who fell to the ground with trembling fingers, and shouted in horror and inexplicably, "Kill??" Kill him! ”

From the side, the soldiers under Zhao Cheng's command looked at each other, and they didn't dare to step forward, after all, Wei Hu at this moment was like a powerful ghost who had climbed into the yang world from the netherworld blood pool of the underworld, no matter how he looked at it, it made people feel frightened.

"Lao Tzu will come by himself!" Seeing that the corporal did not dare to move, Zhao Cheng was shocked and angry, snatched the spear from the hand of a soldier next to him, and stabbed the head of Wei Hu, who was still lying on the ground and couldn't get up.

You must know that at the moment, Wei Hu is only supported by one breath, where is the strength to repel Zhao Cheng? However, at this moment, suddenly heard a loud shout from the side.

"Zhao Cheng, you are so bold, you dare to hurt my family Wei Shuai!"

With that loud shout, Wang Weilai, the general of the Jinling Taiping Army, was killed from the corner and stepped forward in a few steps. With the weapon in his hand, he narrowly repelled the spear in Zhao Cheng's hand and saved Wei Hu almost at the last moment.

"Wang Wei?" Zhao Cheng took a few steps back from the gun. carefully estimated the number of soldiers brought by Wang Wei this time.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Wei hurriedly helped Wei Hu up. However, Wei Hu's eyesight no longer seemed to be enough to recognize that the general who helped him up in front of him was his general, and his eyes that had gradually lost his brilliance flashed with a fierce light, and he grabbed Zhao Cheng with his bloody right hand.

Seeing this, Wang Wei shouted repeatedly, "Wei Shuai, Wei Shuai? It's the last general, the last general is Wang Wei! ”

shouted a few times before Wei Hu reacted a little. Half lying on Zhao Cheng's body panting, he immediately pointed to the city guard mansion that had been shrouded in raging fire with his blood-stained fingers, babbling and not knowing what to say.

And no wonder. After all, Wei Hu bit his tongue desperately in order to cheer up his will, and because the pain gradually weakened when he was about to die, he bit the ground harder and harder, so that his tongue was already bloody and blurred, how could he still speak.

"Wei Shuai? Wei Shuai? You...... Why did you get so hurt? - Your ...... What do you want to say? "Hold Wei Hu. Wang Weihu's eyes were full of tears, and his hands trembled.

Waving his hand, Wei Hu pointed at himself, and then at the city guard, although he tried hard to say a complete sentence. But unfortunately, his tongue has been hit hard, and he is now worse than dumb. "You want to enter? - No, Wei Shuai, the mansion is engulfed in flames...... "Although Wang Wei didn't understand Wei Hu's eagerness to enter the mansion to rescue the dead sheep, he was still able to understand Wei Hu's intention to enter the city guard mansion from Wei Hu's gestures, so he hurriedly persuaded him.

"Whew-whew-"

Wei Hu gasped and looked at Wang Wei, perhaps he realized that his will was gradually weakening while he was wasting time with Wang Wei, or perhaps he was impatient to gesture with Wang Wei again, he pushed Wang Wei away and stumbled towards the city guard's mansion.

"Wei Shuai!"

Wang Wei exclaimed, and was about to step forward to stop it, but was surprised to see that Zhao Cheng wanted to make a move on Wei Hu again, his face turned cold, and he raised his sword to block it for his own boss.

"Are you in such a hurry to die? - Maybe I don't have to do it......" Glancing at Wei Hu's stumbling figure that disappeared into the fire, Zhao Cheng sneered and mocked.

Wang Wei was furious when he heard this, and shouted while attacking, "Zhao Cheng, as a subordinate general of Lord Weizhuang of the Five Heavenly Generals, why do you want to assist the rebellious Niu Zhu Army?!" ”

"This question, leave it to you to go into the Yin Cao to ask the king of Hades!" Zhao Cheng laughed loudly, and fought with Wang Wei with a gun. Although he was afraid of Wei Hu, this did not mean that he was afraid of Wang Wei, and the martial arts of the two were only between them.

However, Zhao Cheng obviously forgot that people can show more force than usual when they are angry, and in the face of Wang Wei, who was furious, Zhao Cheng fell into a disadvantage for a while.

And at this moment, Xu Chang, the general of the Niuzhu Taiping Army, finally arrived with the elite army, seeing this, Zhao Cheng hurriedly called for help, "General Xu Chang, and help Zhao to kill this fang!" ”

However, Xu Chang was in no mood to ignore Zhao Cheng, after all, the purpose of his coming here was to rescue his boss Withered Sheep, not to relieve Zhao Cheng.

"Boom-"

The gatehouse of the castle guard mansion finally collapsed, and the fierce fire swept through the vicinity in an instant, and although Xu Chang was desperate to rush into it, he couldn't help but be forced back by the fire.

"Quick! Firefighting, firefighting! ”

In desperation, Xu Chang could only order his subordinates to put out the fire, but the fire in front of him had already spread, swallowing the entire city guard mansion and the surrounding buildings, and it could not be extinguished in a short time.

"Handsome ......"

Xu Chang fell to his knees with a thud, and slammed his fist on the ground with a look of chagrin, because he really couldn't think of how the commander of his Niu Zhu army, Withered Sheep, could survive in such a terrible fire. Despite the pain in his heart, Xu Chang couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

However, Wei Hu, the commander of the Jinling Taiping Army who stumbled into the fire and tried everything to save his good brother Withered Sheep, was not desperate, even when he came to the big house, most of the big house had already collapsed, and the remaining half of the bricks and stones were burned red, so you can imagine the temperature of these masonry.

However, Wei Hu didn't seem to notice the temperature of the masonry at all, and picked up the rubble that covered the entrance to the wine cellar piece by piece......

At the same time, in the depths of the cellar below, the withered sheep was standing by the wall with a shocked face, watching the flames that were about to burn to his side.

This wine cellar, which was originally used by Wei Hu to store wine, is now like a talisman for withered sheep, don't look at the dark and damp wine cellar. But all the damp water is the smell of wine, and you can imagine how strong the flame will burn here.

[What's going on?] What's going on here? ]

"Bang dang!"

A loud bang alarmed the withered sheep that were in a bit of a mess, forcing him to subconsciously raise his head.

Originally. The flames that seeped into the cellar burned along the aisle to the wooden shelves on both sides, causing the wooden shelves that had been steamed by the wine for a long time to burst into flames. Then it broke, causing the jar of wine on the wooden frame to shatter to the ground, which further fueled the fire.

This disgusting cycle caused the fire to gradually invade towards the location of the withered sheep, and the fierce heat that came to the face made the withered sheep's complexion change again and again.

He couldn't help but panic, after all, he looked at this wine cellar. It's like a sea of fire at the moment, and I'm afraid hell is no more than that.

"Someone! Come! ”

The withered sheep smashed the iron prison desperately, trying to attract the attention of Wei Hu's personal soldiers who stayed outside the big house, how did he know. Wei Hu's own soldiers who had left there had already been killed by Zhao Cheng, the subordinate of Wei Zhuang, who had entered the city to defend the mansion. Moreover, even if the soldiers were still alive, the shouts of the withered sheep in the cellar could not necessarily reach the ground. After all, there is quite chaos in Jinling City right now, who cares if there is any mystery under the collapsed big house.

After shouting for a while, but there was no movement outside, the withered sheep inevitably despaired.

He knew that Wei Hu and this Jinling City must have suffered some kind of catastrophe, so that Wei Hu was unable to do anything. I didn't notice the fire on this side.

There is also a possibility, perhaps his ominous premonition of withered sheep was verified, and Wei Hu really died outside......

Thinking of this, the withered sheep only felt a little blocked in his heart, and sighed lightly and sat down slowly against the wall.

Liang Qiuhao, Wei Zou, Yiyi, Xie An......

His mind couldn't help but flash familiar faces one by one, some of them were dead, some were still alive in the world.

[I don't know how my sister is doing in Jijing...... Have you ever thought about my younger brother...... My brother-in-law is a good person, worthy of deep friendship, with him, my sister shouldn't have any mistakes......]

Thinking about it, Wei Hu's hearty and honest smile jumped into the withered sheep's mind.

[That idiot!] ――Wouldn't it be the end of letting me out early? Now it's all right...... By the way, are you really dead, Ah Hu? ]

There was a bit of sadness in the dead sheep's eyes.

And at this moment, the withered sheep suddenly heard the sound of the iron fence next to him, he subconsciously glanced at it, and immediately gasped in shock, and jumped up violently.

What did he see? He saw a man of fire burning all over his body, struggling to get to his feet by holding on to the iron bar with both hands.

"Ah...... Tiger? ”

The withered sheep who vaguely recognized the face of the person was stunned, and Wei Hu's words before leaving suddenly jumped out of his mind.

[…… If that's the case, I'll crawl here and let you out, even if I only have one breath left!" - Brothers will never leave you! ]

The so-called man doesn't flick when he has tears, but at this time, the withered sheep couldn't control the tears welling up in his eyes, and looked at Wei Hu tremblingly. Because he realized from Wei Hu's blackened chest and the palms of his hands that Wei Hu had really crawled over from the insurmountable sea of fire in the wine cellar.

"Ah Hu...... Ahu? - You...... How did you end up like this? ”

But at this moment, Wei Hu seemed to be unable to hear the sound of the withered sheep, and he struggled to stand up, holding the red-hot iron bar tightly with both hands.

"Whew-"

A puff of white smoke accompanied by a hint of burnt meat reached the nose of the withered sheep.

"Bang dang! Bang Dang! ”

The iron door shook a few times, but there was no response.

Can't open the iron door......

Wei Hu couldn't open the iron door because he didn't have the key. The key was still in the hands of his own soldiers who had been killed by Zhao Cheng, in the hands of one of his own soldiers.

[Key...... Key...... No key......]

Extremely sluggish, he looked around blankly with his lifeless eyes, and then turned his gaze to the withered sheep in the iron prison that was already approaching by the flames.

[Ah Yang ......]

Wei Hu shouted in his heart, but he never spit out half a word, even if it was a vague word. Because his body had long since died, what sustained him to this point was only a will.

[Don't be afraid, Sheep...... I'll get you out......]

With a vague vision, he vaguely saw that his good brother Withered Sheep was shouting something at him, Wei Hu smiled in his heart, although he couldn't hear a word about what Withered Sheep said.

"Bang dang! Bang Dang! ”

Wei Hu desperately shook the entire iron railing, as if intending to pull the entire iron railing out of the thick brick wall.

But you know, even in his heyday, he didn't see that he could do it, let alone him now?

"Ah......h

It may be that seeing that his efforts have not been rewarded at all, Wei Hu, who saw that the iron railing was not moving, suddenly let out a loud roar like the wailing of a beast.

The flames behind him were burning brighter and louder, even his hair was burning, but he didn't seem to notice the pain, and shook the iron railing more and more fiercely.

"Click......"

A crisp sound came from Wei Hudi's chest, and immediately after, a stream of scorched blood sprayed the withered sheep's face. Only then did the withered sheep realize that Wei Hu's whole body was creaking, as if it would suddenly fall apart.

"Wow ......"

"Woohoo......"

Blood splattered, Wei Hu at this moment was like a broken bag with holes everywhere, and the blood in his body burst out from all parts of his body, making the withered sheep's whole body bright red.

"Ah Hu...... Ahu...... Forget it, forget it......" Withered Sheep persuaded in a choked tone.

However, Wei Hu didn't listen to his persuasion, or rather, at this moment, he couldn't hear the voice of the withered sheep, and there was only one thought in his heart.

[Pull this damn iron railing out of the brick wall!!] ]

"Roar!!" Wei Hu's throat erupted with an inhuman-like roar, and the blood and tendons all over his body burst violently, and such a miserable appearance could no longer be described as miserable.

"Bang dang!"

In the disbelief of the withered sheep, the entire iron baring was pulled up by Wei Hu from the solid brick wall, and at the same time, Wei Hu's body was also paralyzed.

"Ah Hu!!"

With a loud roar, the withered sheep rushed out of the prison door to hold Wei Hu up, and hurriedly slapped out the flames on his body with his hands.

It seemed that he vaguely saw the panicked face of the withered sheep, and Wei Hu used his last strength to hold the withered sheep's hand.

The withered sheep was shocked to see that Wei Hu actually grinned, as before.

Finally, the clenched right hand let go, and it fell to the ground with a clatter.

Looking at Wei Hu again, he was still hideous, but his face was so peaceful and calm at the moment, and even seemed to have a little joy of getting what he wanted.

Perhaps, he still has all kinds of nostalgia for this world: he has not helped Wu Heng, the fourth commander of the Taiping Army to whom he is loyal, to repel the Zhou army and restore the Southern Tang Dynasty; has not yet become a world-famous fierce general; Not yet married and having children......

However, he rescued his good brother Withered Sheep, even if the previous promise was purely a joke, but the man kept it.

Therefore, there was no regret or unwillingness on his face.

Die, for the confidant!

Die without regrets!

"Hu-!!"

Holding Wei Hu's corpse in his arms, the withered sheep let out a terrible roar.

On May 3, the fifth year of Jingzhi of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Wei Hu, a fierce general under the command of Wu Heng, the fourth commander of the Taiping Army, the commander of the Jinling Taiping Army, and the Tianquan God General of the Six Divine Generals, died at the age of 23.
