Chapter 404: The night is as cold as water
Chapter 403: See you again
… On a bleak autumn night, Yannan Mountain is pitch black, and the secluded forest is attached to the gray shadows, which looks deep and gloomy. [Full text reading]
If you have good eyesight, you can faintly see the spears and halberds hidden in the woods, shining in the cold moonlight.
At this time, Yannan Mountain seemed to be half-quiet, but in fact, it was a gathering of all the surviving demobilized soldiers in Yanzhou City, and they opened up a temporary camp on the mountainside to fight against the Scourge Legion.
It has been three months since the establishment of this camp, and as the Scourge has attacked the mountain again and again, there are fewer and fewer surviving warriors in the camp, and one by one they have turned into dry bones and buried in this land forever, and even buried in the belly of ghouls.
In addition to the direct killing of life in war, the soldiers also faced the threat of starvation. Low-level converted warriors are not like legendary heroes who can absorb the energy of heaven and earth even if they don't eat or drink, and they will starve to death if they don't eat.
At that time, when the natural disaster army arrived, the granaries of Yanzhou City were all polluted by the plague of the natural disaster, the soldiers retreated in a hurry, and the food in the inventory was naturally not much, and now they have been besieged on Yannan Mountain for three months, and the food they brought has long been eaten, only the regular army of the Rocky Kingdom still has some military rations in their hands, whether it is a mercenary or a free transfer soldier, if they want to lead the army's rations, they must complete the war task, and it is inevitable that there will be sacrifices to complete the task, which is equivalent to exchanging their lives for food.
At this time, it was already late at night, the sky was dotted with stars, and the mountains and forests were silent.
There is a cliff in the back mountain of Yannan Mountain, and the cliff is like a giant sticking out of the arm, which is very steep. From there, you can overlook the whole forest sea, the wind blows the forest, such as rolling green waves, the waves are endless, if it is not for the invasion of natural disasters, the lives are devastated, this scene is the ultimate in beauty.
Due to the cold at the heights, a thin layer of hoarfrost has formed on the cliff stone wall at this time, the moonlight is bright, the cold light is like a veil, and a slightly thin figure of a woman reclines on the rock, looking at the deep dark night in the distance in a lost mind. Silent.
The woman was wearing a set of heroic armor, holding a silver helmet, and one toe was aimlessly fiddling with the stones on the ground, as if she was preoccupied.
She held this position for a long time, and finally sighed softly, and was about to get up and leave, when a lazy voice suddenly came from behind the rock, "Big sister, what are you thinking about the head of the group?"
The girl was slightly startled at first, and then showed an angry expression, "The dog can't spit out ivory from its mouth, I'm thinking about the safety of the hundreds of people in the group, and." How many times have I said don't call me big sister
"Know, know, hehe." A young man with a hippie smile came out from behind the rock, followed by a beautiful girl in her twenties, who was holding the man's arm in a very affectionate manner.
The woman in the armor and leaning on the rock is Jones Incense, and the man is the "Dog God", a newcomer who joined the Chimere Mercenary Group a year ago, and the girl next to him is his girlfriend Fluttershy, who is in the mercenary group.
The dog god said that he was a little orphan since he was a child, begging with a group of stray children, he has no name since he can remember, the dog god is just his nickname, talking about the origin of this nickname is really making people cry and laugh, according to his own words, he fought very well when he was a child, once the young master of a large family put a few wolf dogs out to bite these little beggars, but the dog god alone beat all the dogs to death and stewed dog meat, so those stray children called him the dog god.
Later, the dog god became a turned warrior. This nickname has been used, he is very talented, and he has reached the nineteenth level of a transferred warrior at a young age, according to this degree, it is not a problem to break through the bottleneck of a transformed hero at the age of forty, which is already a great genius in the Rocky Kingdom.
Jones Xiang said, "Don't be serious, will you get the food next week?" ”
The dog god suddenly became interested, "Hehe, of course I got it, even if King Rocky himself didn't have anything to eat, he wouldn't dare to lose it, wouldn't we?" Speaking of which, thanks to the head of the regiment, the commander of the battle in Balghada is famous all over the world, and after the king's old boy knew that Mr. Nan was our regiment leader, his expression haha, I want to laugh when I think about it. ”
The dog god was talking about the eyebrows fluttering, but Jones Xiang only smiled reluctantly after hearing this, and her face inadvertently showed a hint of resentment, she sighed and turned her head slightly, looking absent-minded. Originally, the national crisis was at the head and there was a shortage of materials, and mercenary groups like the bellbird could only get a little bit of food even if they worked hard, and the royal family often used mercenary groups as cannon fodder in order to preserve the strength of the regular army.
Over the past few months, the Bellbird Mercenary Regiment has fought dozens of battles with the Scourge Legion over food, and the brothers in the regiment have suffered heavy casualties.
Until three days ago, the sixth prince Dante sent someone to break through the blockade of the natural disaster to send a letter to King Rocky, telling him that the hero who turned the tide in Balghdad at that time was Gu Nansheng, the leader of the bellbird mercenary group, and pointed out the relationship between Jones Xiang and Gu Nansheng, which made King Rocky's face white with fright, and he immediately found someone to prepare food and pay to comfort Jones Ben in person, and then exempted the bellbird mercenary group from all war tasks.
But after the news of Jones Xiang's return from the king's mouth hill south. Joy! Yu has suffered from gains and losses, and the Four Classics have returned, why haven't they come to see him? It's been three months since the Scourge invaded the kingdom of Rocky, doesn't he know that he is in danger?
Because of these thoughts, Jones Xiang hasn't slept well in the past few days. In the evening, she came to the cliff behind the mountain to stay.
The dog god realized that he had said the wrong thing, and he stuck out his tongue and said, "What, eldest sister, the head of the regiment probably didn't find this place." ”
Fluttershy beside him couldn't help but pout when she got to the difference, and muttered, "It's not that you don't have a long mouth, how can you not find it, men really don't have a good thing."
The dog god glared at Fluttershy, "What is the little girl talking about?" Commander, this girl was bitten by a ghoul during the last battle, and her brain got into maggots, and now she still has a little sequelae, don't listen to her nonsense, ouch! Why are you biting, you, a dog! ”
"You're the dog! A real dog! ”
Jones Xiang knew that the dog god was deliberately amusing herself, she smiled reluctantly and said: "I'm fine, he may have something to delay, and he didn't catch up, besides, my relationship with him is not as close as you think, even if he doesn't come,"
Jones Incense's voice became noticeably quieter, and her face turned a little pale, and Fluttershy interrupted her angrily, "Sister Xiang, you're still speaking for him." These men, if they have a little ability, they will mess with flowers and grass, and they can barely bear it when they are three and four, and the most unbearable thing is to like the new and hate the old, and they will be dumped when they are done."
"I said, who offended you today? If you don't say a word, you can die, hurry up and go back to me! The dog god tugged Fluttershy for a moment, and then said to Jones, "What, big sister, don't worry about the future, there are brothers, and those little dogs from the natural disaster can't beat it." ”
"Well, I know, you two go back, I'll be alone for a while." Jones said absent-mindedly.
Now with the natural danger of Yannan Mountain, they can indeed hold it, but it is impossible to break through. Grain and grass are limited, sooner or later there will be a day when they run out, and now the little food that the Rocky Kingdom gives to the bellfish is also saved by other armies, can it be given this week, can it be given next week?
Thinking of this, Jones Xiang's heart was in turmoil, the months of fighting had cost the bellbird hundreds of warriors, and those young people had their own dreams, and some had their own families. But now they are all dry bones in the wilderness.
Jones's heart was like a knife, and she was almost suffocated by the continuous battles and the slim future.
At this time, Jones Xiang suddenly heard the sound of feet stepping on stones behind her, she sighed, and said a little tiredly: "Why are you two back again?"
Jones Xiang turned around as she spoke, but she froze halfway through her body and was greeted by an extremely familiar figure, but his slightly messy head and sparse beard added a sense of vicissitudes that he had not had before.
And that's the time. The man was staring at her silently, with a hint of joy and guilt in his eyes.
"You" Jones Xiang just opened her mouth but immediately covered her mouth with her hand, although she tried her best to control herself, but the tears still couldn't stop flowing, "You, you're back, I, I'm not dreaming?" ”
The figure flashed, the man had disappeared, and Jones was in shock and disappointment when she suddenly felt a pair of strong arms hugging her from behind.
"Girl, you've lost weight."
Jones Xiang's body shook when she heard this. She couldn't hold back any longer, and threw herself into Gu Nansheng's arms and cried loudly.
In the past few months, she has endured too much pressure, calmed the unstable emotions of the group members, dealt with the major forces of Yannan Mountain, and led the mercenary group to fight against natural disasters.
She is just a weak woman, how can her slender shoulders bear such a heavy burden, coupled with her longing for Gu Nansheng and her resentment against him for a long time, this makes her already weak body and mind almost on the verge of collapse. Jones Xiang lay in Gu Nansheng's arms, she felt an indescribable sense of security fill her heart, no natural disasters or wars mattered, she cried for a long time before sobbing and said, "I...... I miss you
"I know."
Gu Nansheng stroked Jones Xiang's messy head, he noticed Akasha standing in the woods in the distance and silently looking here, after feeling Gu Nansheng's gaze, Akasha smiled, and then quietly retreated into the shadows of the forest.
"I'm so scared of you" you're not coming. At this time, Jones Xiang completely threw away the little self-esteem she used to disguise herself and became a weak little girl.
