Chapter 41: I Raise a Villain in Troubled Times (41)
Night.
The grain trucks were neatly parked on the side of the road, and the bandits gathered in groups of three or five, shouting at each other and gambling on the dice, and beating each other at the slightest disagreement. When horses pull carts, they vent all their energy that they can't vent during the day on gambling and beating each other.
Chongfeng secretly commented on this group of bandits, full of gangsterism. I don't know why Ye Shenyu chose to let this group of bandits pull food for her.
At this time, only Ye Shenyu's side was quiet, and the girl sat alone by the fire with her eyes closed, and no one dared to make noise about her.
Beside her, it seemed that even the sound of insects had quieted down.
In fact, Ye Shenyu is talking to the system. After coming out of Qinglong Village, the system didn't know what to do, and it didn't reappear until tonight.
When the system came back, it saw Chongfeng, it connected to the database in this world, and was a little speechless: [Forget about grabbing food, even you can grab people. 】
Ye Shenyu: [Handy.] When everyone was sent to her feet, she threw her horse with her hand.
The system felt that Ye Shenyu couldn't find a reason for everything, so she classified it as a convenient one. It may also be really easy, after all, few people can do it as wantonly as she does.
System: [Is it convenient to leave Ye Xuan behind?] 】
Ye Shenyu tilted his head slightly, and the knife in his arms revealed a pitch-black scabbard: [He gave me food. Just like the people in Yuyang City, they also gave her rice crackers and silver taels.
The system didn't continue to ask, but said: "You can do whatever you want, just don't forget the task. 】
Ye Shenyu in the firelight turned his body sideways, his eyes were like the deepest ink jade, transparent as lacquer: [I know. Points didn't mean much to her, but after completing one mission after another, she did go further on her path.
So as long as she can complete the task, she will go back and complete it.
As the night deepened, the bandits dispersed.
"I'm resting, I'm going to go tomorrow."
Someone muttered in a low voice: "I'll be in Yuyang tomorrow......"
Yuyang City.
The walls were filled with torches, and the sound of burning pine oil was mixed with the sound of swords and fighting. Every Yuyang defender was covered in blood and mud, and even the armor on his body was in tatters. They have been fighting here for a day and a night, and their bows and arrows have long been used up, so they can only rely on swords and guns to fight with the Qizhou army.
Even the county government can hear the sound of fighting at the city gate. When this kind of people are panicked, Xie Qun can't sleep of course. Not only did he not sleep, but he had even packed his bags and touched the Gu family's silver ingots and the gold ornaments of the Feng Mansion.
He is a child, even if it is a child brought by Ye Shenyu, no one pays attention to him at this time.
In the middle of the night, Xie Qun walked out of the courtyard gate, touching the root of the wall and touching the direction of the waterway. He followed Gu Zhi these days, ostensibly to learn from him, but in fact, to find out if Yuyang City could be defended.
If he can't hold it, of course he has to plan early. Xie Qun's expression was indifferent, he had no intention of following Gu Zhi to death. He can grow from seven or eight years old to now, and he relies on knowing when to escape.
Ye Xuan was still sleeping when he came out, Xie Qun didn't alarm him, and his heart was half mocking and half jealous. Because of his sister like Ye Shenyu, he can sleep.
The shadows of the trees by the river were longing, and Xie Qunshen walked forward with one shallow foot. Suddenly, there was a cacophony in the west, which was unusually clear in the night.
Immediately, even more noisy voices came. Xie Qun heard someone shouting: "The city gate is broken!" ”
Xie Qun's face changed suddenly, he wanted to run before the city was broken, but he didn't expect the city to be broken so quickly. He didn't bother to hide his whereabouts, and ran quickly in the direction of his memory.
He remembered that there was a ship there.
On the way to the race, Xie Qun seemed to hear someone talking, saying that the goddess had a younger brother who lived in the courtyard next to the county office.
Who remembers the goddess's brother at this time? Xie Qun flashed his thoughts, and his footsteps kept running forward.
In the mountains and forests outside Yuyang City, a group of people carried torches and drove horses to pull grain carts. It was only ten miles away from Yuyang City, so they didn't rest at all tonight, but traveled at night.
Originally, the night was a time when it was easy to encounter wild beasts, but because of the presence of Ye Shenyu, the bandits were afraid that the wild beasts would not come. When they came to add food, when the big boss couldn't finish eating, they could still get some.
Ye Shenyu led the horse to the front, and Chongfeng followed behind her a few steps away. After turning a corner along the mountain road, a fire suddenly flashed behind the treetops in the distance.
That direction is the direction of Yuyang City, Ye Shenyu narrowed his eyes, and listened to the sound of Bing Ge and horses. Someone is coming to attack the city again?
Chongfeng also saw the fire in the distance, and he knew very well in his heart that it was the Qizhou army attacking Yuyang City. He was arrested, and it did not affect Shangguan Zhongyang to take Yuyang. It's just that Chongfeng didn't care if Yuyang could be beaten down or not, but now he prayed in his heart that Yuyang City would not be broken.
In case this goddess returns to Yuyang and finds that the city is broken, it is still fought by the Qizhou army, but I am afraid that he, the military adviser of the Qizhou army, will die soon.
Ye Shenyu listened for a moment, frowned, and rode his horse to Yuyang City. As soon as she pulled the reins, she suddenly remembered that she had caught someone, turned around and grabbed Chongfeng from another horse, and placed it horizontally in front of her.
Then, she grabbed the back of her horse and galloped in the direction of Yuyang City.
The mountain road is difficult to walk, and it is night, Ye Shenyu pulls the horse to avoid stones and potholes. Chongfeng was so upset that he couldn't say a word, and seriously suspected that Ye Shenyu knew that it was the Qizhou army that was fighting Yuyang, and deliberately tossed him.
Not far ahead, Ye Shenyu saw a camp with flags hanging on the tent.
Ye Shenyu didn't know the words of this world, but she remembered that this flag was the flag of the Qizhou Army.
She originally planned to go to Qizhou to find Shangguan Zhongyang after sending the grain back to Yuyang, but now it seems that she doesn't need to go over.
At this time, there were many people left in the camp of the Qizhou army, and there were squads patrolling back and forth outside the camp.
The horses under him were frightened and rushed forward regardless of it. Ye Shenyu's gaze fell on the largest camp tent with flags, and he didn't have the slightest intention of holding the war horse galloping forward, and went straight to the camp tent.
The patrol team heard the sound of horses' hooves and followed the sound, only to see a young girl riding a black fast horse about to break into the camp.
"Who's coming?" The leader of the squad shouted and was about to stop him.
Ye Shenyu only stared at the camp tent in front of him, and pulled the reins in his hand upwards fiercely. The horse leapfrogged over the captain's head and knocked over the torch on one side.
Torches tumbled to the ground, scattering sparks that set the hay and tent on fire. Suddenly, a fire broke out in the camp of the Qizhou army.
