Chapter 15: I Raise a Villain in Troubled Times (15)

The woman with the child in her arms sat down on the ground and looked at the girl's back in a daze.

Li Shouyue's head rolled all the way in front of her, his face hideous, his pupils dilated and dilated. She shuddered and lowered her head, tears overflowing her eyes for a moment.

The half-grown child shrunk into her arms in confusion and reached out to touch the tears on her face. The woman hugged him tightly, and went from silent sobbing to wailing.

survived.

The baby and her both survived.

The woman's cries drowned out in the confusion, and people running for their lives in panic ran past her, no one noticing.

Ye Shenyu stood at the end of the street, carrying Xie Qun in one hand and shaking the blood droplets on the blade with the other. The horse beneath her had long since gone, and the scattered deserters and refugees diverted past her, leaving more than a foot of unoccupied space, as if to avoid her.

Gao Wenbin looked at the chaos on the street, and his whole body was excited, and his mind suddenly became clear. He raised the knife in his hand and shouted, "The goddess descended from heaven and has killed the leader of the bandit army. Everyone, kill me and exterminate the bandits! ”

He already had some prestige among the Yuyang defenders, and the Yuyang defenders, who had already collapsed, also stopped hesitantly after Li Shouyue was killed. Now hearing Gao Wenbin's shout, and being shocked by Ye Shenyu's martial arts, these defenders subconsciously gathered together to chase and defeat the fleeing Xingjia army.

After Ye Shenyu defeated the Xingjia army, he carried Xie Qun back to the carriage and put it away. Xie Qun sat in the carriage this time, obediently.

Ye Xuan pounced on Ye Shenyu just when he came over, and plunged into Ye Shenyu's arms: "Sister is so powerful!" ”

Ye Shenyu leaned back slightly, and then stopped stiffly. She was still not used to being so close, and often subconsciously wanted to draw a knife.

Ye Xuan raised his head, his eyes were shining, full of admiration: "My sister can fight so many people, and the generals are not so powerful!" ”

He exaggerated a big circle with his hand, and Xie Qun, who was kneeling behind him, pulled the corners of his lips downward, a little disdainful: this dirty kid probably only heard the word general in the play.

It is no longer humanly capable of holding off such an army by oneself. Xie Qun's eyes were dark, he had seen a lot of market tricks of stealing beams and changing pillars, and he also knew what kind of goods those Taoist priests who claimed to cultivate immortals, and he didn't believe in any ghosts and gods. But is this woman really human?

Ye Shenyu raised her head keenly, facing Xie Qun's obscure eyes, she narrowed her eyes slightly. Xie Qun's body suddenly stiffened, and he tried to show a well-behaved smile.

"Sister, sister......"

The system sighed: [This kid will be a handsome man in the future......] So young to be so good at looking at the eyes, will you have it in the future?

Ye Shenyu only glanced at Xie Qun lightly, and was pulled back by the chattering Ye Xuan: "Sister, where are we going now?" ”

Ye Shenyu pulled him back and said, "If you find the groom, leave." With that, she turned around and went to look for Gao Wenbin.

At this time, only scattered refugees were left on the street, gathered in twos and threes. Some silently wept and kept wiping; Some found the bodies of their relatives and wept bitterly; Some whispered in a whisper, not hiding their grief and worry on their faces; There were also people who vented their anger at the dead Xingjia army, gritting their teeth and smashing the corpses.

Ye Shenyu was used to seeing the troubled times, and walked in the direction of the city gate without squinting. However, as soon as she took a few steps, the refugees, who had been crying or whispering or cursing, suddenly stopped their voices and looked over. There was silence on the long street.

Ye Shenyu's footsteps paused, what happened to these people? She looked around with a little confusion, and saw these ragged men, women, and children coming from all directions, their expressions excited, their eyes shining, and even the hungry dishes on their faces were a little lighter.

Ye Shenyu frowned, and half of the snowy blade appeared from the scabbard.

The women and men who walked in front ignored her action, threw themselves a few steps away from her feet, and knelt down: "Thank you for saving your life!" ”

As soon as someone spoke, everyone else knelt down one after another, and couldn't stop saying, "Thank you Goddess!" “

"Thank you, goddess, for your life!"

"Goddess Bodhisattva bless ......"

In an instant, all the refugees on the street gathered around, crying and laughing and saying words of thanks. A few elderly people clasped their hands together, thanking the goddess and God, and kowtowed several times in a row. Several pious men and women even began to make wishes for the goddess to bless them with a long and safe life.

Ye Shenyu was surrounded in the middle, holding the knife in his hand, a little dazed: What's the matter?

With Gao Wenbin's command, and the morale of the "goddess" in the world, the Yuyang defenders quickly wiped out the remaining Xingjia army. Except for a few cavalry who fled, the remaining Xingjia army was either killed or captured.

Gao Wenbin led the people to tie up the last few prisoners, and ordered people to clean up the battlefield and ordered the city gate to be repaired. After being busy, he remembered Ye Shenyu and hurriedly turned around to look for it.

When I turned around, I saw that the long street was densely packed with people, including people who had fled, people from Yuyang, and soldiers wearing the uniforms of Yuyang's defenders. Ye Shenyu was in the middle of the crowd, surrounded by water, and his face showed a childlike blankness, which was completely inconsistent with his cold temperament.

Gao Wenbin was stunned for a moment and asked the soldiers who came over next to him: "What's going on?" ”

The pro-soldier looked excited: "The big guys are praying for the goddess to bless Yuyang!" ”

"......" Gao Wenbin pursed his lips, and his face covered with dust and blood was not clear. He called Ye Shenyu a goddess in order to stabilize the morale of the army and boost morale. Although he felt that Ye Shenyu's martial arts were amazing, he didn't think that she was really a goddess.

Only these ignorant and superstitious people can believe that there is a goddess to save the world.

But......

Gao Wenbin looked at the girl who was surrounded in the middle, she had already put down the hand holding the knife, and looked down at the people praying in front of her. The setting sun shone behind her, outlining her figure with a faint gold. At a glance, it makes people feel that there is a bit of compassion between her eyebrows.

Yuyang had just experienced a catastrophe of life and death, and the fleeing Xingjia army would inevitably bring more elite troops, but these people and soldiers did not hesitate and despair at all.

The people who had fled did not continue to flee, and the soldiers who planned to abandon the city were busy repairing the gates and walls. They seem to really believe that this girl who suddenly appears is a goddess who can save their lives in troubled times.

In an instant, Gao Wenbin himself believed his words. If it weren't for the goddess descending from the sky, how could she suddenly appear when Yuyang overturned and save these defenseless people?
