Chapter 20, What I See All the Way
In the territory of Edelweiss Country, the twilight is gloomy! After the army of Western Chu passed, the city turned into ruins, only some villages and the people hidden in the city survived, and the soldiers of the Edelweiss country, from top to bottom, were all killed in battle, and none of them surrendered!
A carriage entered the city in the territory of the Edelweiss country, and there was no life in the ruined walls, and the people on the streets were also depressed, looking for the bodies of their relatives in the pile of dead people, and some people were carrying luggage, not knowing where they had gone out of the city!
Chu Ge and Lian Cheng got out of the carriage, and Hong Zhen also came with him, and Xiao Yi was accompanied along the way! The four of them looked at such a scene, and their hearts were full of feelings!
"Come on, pull over here!" A man in animal skins waved down the street, and others pulled some corpses under his command, and they piled them together waiting for a fire to burn them all! Regardless of their status in life, they will end up the same after death!
Chu Ge Liancheng and the others walked on the street, no one greeted them, they were all walking in a hurry!
"Chu Ge, how can this be!" Liancheng is a little unbearable, since entering the territory of the Edelweiss country, the scene here has left an excellent impression on them, they have lived in the mainland for many years, how have they ever seen the cold scenery, but after arriving in the city, there is such a big difference!
"This is war!" Chu Ge opened his mouth, he knew that all this was done by the Western Chu army, but as the prince of Western Chu, he couldn't condemn it! He can sympathize with the people here, but he can't change it!
"Childe, Edelweiss Country is just a small country, why would it be so aggressive!" Xiao Yi stepped forward and spoke!
"What Brother Xiaoyi said is that the dignified Western Chu army, the killing atmosphere is too much, this is to be wiped out!" Hong Zhen was also a little uncomfortable in his heart, Chu Ge told them the reason why Western Chu attacked the Edelweiss Country, but no one expected it to be so cruel, all the way down, they all slaughtered the city!
"It is General Pan Feng who is leading the attack on the Edelweiss Country this time!" As soon as Chu Ge finished speaking, Xiao Yi exclaimed in surprise and said, "That crazy general!"
"Not bad!" Chu Ge said as he walked: "I only heard that this mad general has always been crazy in war, and this has made me know him a new way!"
"Mad General!" Hong Zhen snorted, obviously very disdainful of this mad general!
The group walked as they talked, and went out of the city until they walked towards the depths of the snowfield!
Originally, when Chu Ge set off, Yan Rufeng wanted to send a team of people to escort him, but Chu Ge refused, on the grounds that he didn't want to be crowded, but in fact, he didn't want his whereabouts to be controlled by Yan Rufeng. Yan Rufeng's thoughts, Chu Ge can still understand a little, he will be so kind to think about him? It is estimated that this Edelweiss is fake, and the conspiracy of the trip to Edelweiss Country is true, but Chu Ge doesn't know what his eldest brother's idea is, but fortunately, there is Hong Zhen, a master of the Tianxuan Realm, by his side, which can be regarded as a little protection! When I get to the army of Western Chu, I believe it will be much safer, Pan Feng, a madman, the prince can't control it!
A village appeared in front of Chu Ge's eyes, and when they entered the village, they found that there were only some old people living there, and there was not a single young person in the village!
"Old man, we want to ask how far Wind and Snow City is from here!" Hong Zhen took the initiative to ask!
"Blizzard, what are you going to do there!" The old man looked vigilant, these days, the army of Xichu has scared them to the core!
"Don't be afraid, old man, we are coming from the south of the country, my head of the family heard that there is a strange fruit in the territory of the Edelweiss country, and he sent me to buy it with a lot of money!" This statement is still what Hong Zhen thinks, because he is a native of Yueguo, and he is not afraid of goofs!
"Yue people, you're talking about edelweiss!" The old man touched his beard and said!
"Old man, do you know where the edelweiss is?" Hong Zhen hurriedly asked, and Chu Ge Liancheng's eyes also showed joy!
"I'm afraid you're going to run for nothing!" The old man waved his hand and said!
"Please tell us why!" Hong Zhen asks!
"Edelweiss fruit is actually an ordinary fruit, just because its growth environment is relatively special, in addition to its scarcity, only the king of the snow city knows where it is planted, so outsiders think that this fruit is cherished, as for the people who say that eating this fruit can be seen in the void world, it is even more nonsense, I have lived for many years, I have never heard anyone verify this, even the king, did not admit it!"
The old man's words are like a basin of cold water pouring a few people from head to toe, and this edelweiss is just a word of mouth from people?
"Anyway, I've got to take this edelweiss back with me!" Chu Ge opened his mouth, this fruit was personally asked for by his father, and if he didn't bring it back, he was afraid that he would give people a tongue, at this time, Chu Ge thought of the eldest brother, could it be that the eldest brother already knew that this edelweiss fruit was worthy of its name!
"Why don't you believe my old man!" The old man saw that Chu Ge and the others still insisted on going to Wind and Snow City, and sighed: "Even if you go to Wind and Snow City, you will return empty-handed, and the Western Chu army has already surrounded Wind and Snow City into an iron bucket!"
"They didn't attack the city?" Hong Zhen's eyes lit up, as long as the Snow City was not broken, Chu Ge would know where the edelweiss fruit was!
"The Western Chu army is menacing, and it has already arrived in Wind and Snow City, and the prime of life in my village is willing to go to defend the city, but just when the West Chu army immediately broke through the Wind and Snow City, a sudden snowstorm hit, enveloping the entire Wind and Snow City, and the West Chu army could not attack, so they could only besiege the city, and it had been more than half a month!" After the old man finished speaking, he folded his hands and prayed: "This is the heavens to protect my Edelweiss country and let the thieves of Western Chu retreat, otherwise the entire Western Chu will be destroyed!"
Hong Zhen didn't believe the old man's words, God would act like this, but as the old man said, this blizzard is really weird! Glancing back at Chu Ge, Hong Zhen said goodbye to the old man, and the group left the village!
"Listening to that old man's words, is it really angry with the gods?" There is some curiosity on the road to the city!
"There is no god in the world, it is just a belief in the hearts of ordinary people!" As a prince, Chu Ge naturally doesn't believe this!
At this time, Hong Zhen opened his mouth and said, "There may be another possibility, that is, this blizzard was done by a powerhouse in the Extreme Realm!"
Hong Zhen's words were like a heavy thunderbolt, could it really be done by a powerhouse in the Extreme Realm?
"There are only five Sword Saints in the world who have entered the Extreme Realm, and this blizzard doesn't look like a means for them?" Chu Ge thought for a while and said!
"The world is so big, and there are more than five sword saints in the extreme realm!" Hong Zhen was a half-step Sword Saint at his peak, of course he knew some secrets, but he knew that the scholar Sword Saint in Rongcheng had been defeated by a mysterious old man!
"Brother Hong Zhen, do you know any other Extreme Realm powerhouses?" Xiao Yi stepped forward and asked!
"Well, I just said it casually, haha!" Hong Zhen suddenly changed his words and walked forward by himself, and the remaining three people all showed suspicious glances at him!
Pan Feng has led the army to besiege Fengxue City for more than half a month, and the Fengxue City in the distance is still the same, like a huge cocoon, which makes people have no way to start!
"General, we only have ten days left with the military rations, if we can't capture the Snow City, I'm afraid we will starve to death on this snow field first!" In Pan Feng's big tent, someone under the seat reported the military situation!
"General, some of the soldiers have been suffering from a cold recently, and their morale is gradually declining!" Another person to say!
Pan Feng listened to this, and he was also a little big-headed, this kind of news is reported every day, but if he retires from the army, then this battle, Pan Feng will be considered a failure! The city in front of him, but he couldn't attack it, which made him very unwilling!
"Smack!" Pan Feng slapped the table and said: "Order, let the whole army cheer me up, wait for five days, after five days, if Fengxue City still can't be attacked, we will withdraw the army, in addition, send someone back to inform the receiving team, bring enough food and grass!" Also, all the soldiers of the Earth Xuan Realm are ready, as long as the snowstorm recedes in the past few days, they will capture the Wind Snow City for me as quickly as possible! ”
"Order!"
Pan Feng gave one order after another, and when he got out of the big tent, he seemed to feel that the wind was a little lighter, and he squinted his eyes and looked into the distance!
