"Block quickly, hurry up!"

Liu Yi rode on his horse and shouted at the soldiers of the forward battalion.

He knew that Xu Rui would definitely make a move on the dark chess today, but no matter how he asked, Xu Rui just refused to tell him how to act, which made him scared.

Until there were two thunderstorms outside the city, everyone thought that the military disaster was too much, and God sent a heavenly punishment, but he immediately understood that it must be a moth made by Xu Rui, and immediately took the soldiers of the forward battalion and ran to the woods.

Three hundred cavalry rushed to the vicinity of the woods non-stop, Liu Yi turned over, threw the reins of the horse, and was about to rush inside, but he heard Cao Gonggong shouting: "Wait for our family, wait for our family!" ”

Liu Yi turned around and saw that Gonggong Cao also jumped off a horse, and couldn't help frowning: "What are you doing here?" ”

Gonggong Cao said angrily: "The Holy One is ordered by the heavens, and now the heavenly punishment is just around the corner, shouldn't our family, as the eyes and ears of the Holy Lord, come over and take a look?" ”

In the era of divine monarchy, the emperor is the son of heaven, and God's every move will even affect the foundation of the rule, which is indeed a big event.

Liu Yi didn't know what was going on in the woods, and there was no reason to stop the prison army, so he just took a deep look at Gonggong Cao, and then ignored him and led people into the woods.

Gonggong Cao's eyes fluttered, as if the conspiracy had succeeded, he smiled slightly, took out a piece of brocade to cover his mouth and nose, slightly isolated the unpleasant smell of gunpowder, and followed the soldiers of the forward battalion inside.

Deep in the woods, Xu Rui hurriedly checked the injuries for Ying Yu, and although Wang Man's last palm was not solid, it was still very fatal, and her internal organs were shaken so much that she could not exercise vigorously for at least a month.

Thinking about the thrilling scene just now, it is a blessing to have such a result.

But when Xu Rui saw her arms, his heart suddenly ached.

Eighteen or nineteen-year-old flower girls should be the best age, they should study, date, and enjoy their youth to the fullest, but Ying Yu used these creamy hands to lift the murderous knife early......

At present, these jade arms are even more bruised, and the bones are broken, like a bird with broken wings, which is unbearable, where is this what a girl should suffer?

"Young master, the shadow is incompetent......"

Seeing Xu Rui looking at his arms in a daze, Ying Yu turned his head in shame.

Xu Rui shook his head: "It's me who is incompetent, and it has always been a man's incompetence to let a woman go to the battlefield!" ”

Ying Yu turned her head and looked at Xu Rui in a daze, since she could remember, she knew that the meaning of this life was to sacrifice her life for her master, it was the first time she had heard of such a strange theory, and she had a strange feeling in her heart, as if she was a little aggrieved and a little satisfied, which reminded her of the father she had never met.

"Don't move, I'll help you deal with the injury, otherwise it will leave sequelae and affect your athletic ability for the rest of your life."

Xu Rui sighed, picked up a waist knife, chopped a few branches from the dry plane tree, cut them to the right size, shaved off the burrs, and then ripped off the sleeves and tore them into strips of cloth.

Shadow Blinked, her big pretty eyes looked at him, curious about what the unpredictable young master wanted to do.

For a long time, in order to practice the art of yin and evil, she didn't know how many injuries she had suffered, but every time she hid and slowly cultivated, the master told him that being injured was also the practice of the dead, and it was no big deal, because she had never taken injury as a thing, but she didn't expect the young master to be so nervous.

"Bear with me."

Xu Rui said softly.

Ying Yu nodded, watching Xu Rui hold her forearm, and then squeezed it hard.

"Ah......h

Even though he had long been accustomed to the pain, Shadow Yu still snorted, and his face turned pale in an instant.

Xu Rui hurriedly helped her wipe the cold sweat off her forehead, and then used the sharpened branch as a splint to firmly fix her arms.

Fortunately, it was just broken, not a comminuted fracture, no surgery, just help her break the bone, fix it, go back and do some treatment, if you are lucky, you can recover as before.

"The lord really pities the jade."

Li Kuang saw that Xu Rui was just dealing with the scene in a hurry, and then used his limited time to treat his dead soldiers' injuries, he was confused for a while, and couldn't help but laugh.

Xu Rui shook his head and said, "I didn't save her because she was a woman, but because she was my person, injured for me, and my comrade-in-arms."

Many times we have to make sacrifices in order to win the final victory, but that does not mean indifference, let alone conspiracy, just giving everything for the same goal.

When there is a choice, the life of a comrade-in-arms is his own life, there is no distinction between high and low in the world, as long as he is my comrade-in-arms, he is also a part of my body, if you really want to worship under my door, I hope you will firmly remember this. ”

Li Kuang was shocked when he heard this, and bowed to Xu Rui, a hint of contemplation flashed on his face.

Ying Yu didn't seem to understand when he heard it, but for some reason there was a sudden warm current in his heart, it turned out that such a despicable dead soldier could also be regarded as a comrade-in-arms of the young master?

Just as he was thinking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the woods, and Shadow Yu's face changed, and he was about to struggle to get up.

Xu Rui pressed her shoulder and said softly: "It's okay, it's my own person." ”

Shadow shook his head and said, "No, I can't let them see me, I'll be exposed." ”

Xu Rui was stunned for a moment, remembering her identity as a dead soldier, and suddenly laughed.

"It's okay, from today onwards, where there is me, there will be sunshine, and you can walk in the sun to your heart's content."

"What?!"

Shadow pears' pupils shrank.

She was an assassin and a dead soldier, born to walk in the dark, and over time she had formed a symbiotic relationship with the darkness, forgetting the appearance of the sun.

Ying Yu looked at Xu Rui, his body was very weak, and his face was very immature, but his smile was extremely reassuring.

Unconsciously, she forgot to remember the struggle, and lay on the ground with peace of mind, remembering that she had lived for almost twenty years, and this was the first time she had tasted peace of mind.

"Xu Rui, little rabbit, where did you go?!"

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and before the soldiers of the forward battalion arrived, Liu Yi's voice came first.

Xu Rui turned his head and happened to see Liu Yi coming out of the dense woods in a hurry, followed by familiar faces, each of which was a comrade-in-arms who had fought side by side with him.

Xu Rui's heart was at ease, and it was not until this moment that the nerves that had been tense finally relaxed.

However, the forward battalion soldiers, including Liu Yi, were stunned by the scene in front of them.

The blasted old tree was like a thorn, two large craters appeared on the ground, and the shock wave of the explosion scraped the ground like an iron plow, and the air was filled with burning ashes, and the thick smell of gunpowder was very pungent.

"Is this really heaven's punishment?"

Such a thought popped up in everyone's minds, only Liu Yi knew that this was definitely not a heavenly punishment, it must be a moth made by Xu Rui, and his heart couldn't help but be even more shocked.

"General!"

Xu Rui waved to everyone in the distance, Liu Yi came back to his senses, and he couldn't care about this hellish battlefield anymore, and hurriedly rushed towards Xu Rui.

"Boy, are you alright?"

Liu Yi glanced at the shadow on the ground, ignored it, and just looked at Xu Rui with concern.

Xu Rui shook his head, pointed to the head beside him and said, "This is the command of the dark chess placed in the Northern Martial Guard, Wang Man, the general of the pro-guard battalion." ”

When Liu Yi saw the bloody human head, his heart suddenly chilled, and he gasped, not only because he didn't expect the dark chess to be Wang Man, but also because of his miserable death.

Seeing this, Li Kuang hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Li Kuang, who is a lowly Jinyi guard, has seen the general." ”

Liu Yi stared at the human head, refusing to take his eyes off, just waving his hand, signaling that he didn't need to be polite.

Li Kuang said: "General Qiyu, Xu Zuoling has already discovered Wang Man's secret chess identity, and teamed up with my Jinyiwei to lay a net of heaven and earth, intending to capture this fang alive, but I didn't expect him to be a disciple of Xiao Jinyu, the martial saint of the Southern Dynasty, and his martial arts were earth-shattering.

In order to kill him, my Jinyi guard suffered heavy casualties, and thousands of Han Baixing were martyred, if it weren't for Xu Zuoling's means to reach the sky, I'm afraid I would have lost my life to see the general again. ”

As he spoke, Li Kuang burst into tears, as if he was extremely sad.

Hearing that Wang Mannai was a disciple of Xiao Jinyu, the martial saint of the Southern Dynasty, Liu Yi was shocked again, but he already knew that Xu Rui had also counted Jinyiwei, and Li Kuang was clever and self-defeating, exposing the relationship between the two.

Fortunately, Liu Yi had a very poor impression of Jinyiwei, and he was eager to launch a mutiny to regain military power, so he didn't care too much, but he was secretly frightened, Xu Rui, this kid, had such a means, even Jinyiwei could buy it, and it was in such a short time.

Xu Rui probably knew Liu Yi's thoughts, and his expression was dumbfounded.

Jin Yiwei is a professional spy, and he is the best at fabricating charges, but now that Han Baixing and most of Jin Yiwei are dead, there is only one Li Kuang left, and he believes that Li Kuang will definitely come up with countless evidence to prove that Wang Man is the heinous bandit leader.

However, the so-called evidence is used to prevaricate outsiders, Liu Yi has an extremely close relationship with him, almost not under Yang Weiyuan, lying in front of him, and being seen by others at a glance, which makes Xu Rui a little uncomfortable.

"This matter is the authority of Jinyiwei, so it will be handed over to Li Baihu to deal with it with full authority, and now the army is still in danger, so this matter should be taken seriously."

Liu Yi saw the way out, so he naturally wanted to help Xu Rui, and he decided on this matter in one sentence.

When Xu Rui heard him mention the army, he immediately remembered that the army of the Southern Dynasty would attack in advance, and his heart tightened, and he hurriedly said: "General, I heard him mention when I wanted to arrest the bandit leader Wang Man, I am afraid that the army of the Southern Dynasty will be killed in advance, and our army must make plans in advance!" ”

"What?!"

Liu Yi's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?!" ”

As soon as the words came out, he realized that there were many people here, and waved his hand again and again: "This is not the place to talk, let's go back to the Chinese army first!" ”

As he spoke, he helped Xu Rui up, and then beckoned to the generals of the forward battalion: "This place is handed over to Jinyiwei to deal with, and now there is urgent military affairs, return to the Chinese army immediately!" ”

The soldiers agreed one after another, put away their waist knives, and walked out of the woods.

Xu Rui helped Ying Yu and Li Kuang to follow the back of the team, and was about to leave, but suddenly heard a shrill voice behind him.

"Xu Zuoling, please take a step to speak, we have something I want to ask you."

Xu Rui turned around and saw Gonggong Cao standing on the edge of the big pit of the explosion, covering his mouth and nose with a piece of brocade, his expression was indescribably cold.

Li Kuang reacted, and hurriedly arched his hand towards the two, and helped Xu Rui to hold the shadow and walk out, leaving space for Xu Rui and Gonggong Cao to talk secretly.

Seeing everyone walk away, Xu Rui frowned and walked up to Gonggong Cao, and arched his hand: "I don't know what my father-in-law wants to ask?" ”

Gonggong Cao squinted his eyes and looked at him deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Aren't all these brocade guards killed by Wang Man?" ”

Xu Rui was shocked, but there was no difference on his face, and he hugged his fists and smiled: "Who else can he be?" The kid didn't understand what his father-in-law meant. ”

Father-in-law Cao sneered: "Boy, you don't have to talk nonsense in front of our family, although our family doesn't understand military strategy, but we were born in Dongchang Prison, and we are especially good at punishment." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to a corpse on the ground and said, "Look at this corpse, although there are many wounds, the fatal wound is the incision in the neck, this incision is thin and small, and it does not fit with Wang Man's waist knife, I'm afraid it is the dagger in your hand, right?" ”

Xu Rui was shocked, and before he could speak, he heard Gonggong Cao continue: "Our family has just taken a closer look at Han Baixing's corpse, there are several blood holes on his body, obviously injured by a hidden weapon, and the hidden weapon has been taken away, obviously trying to hide his identity, don't tell me that Wang Man can still come alive to take away the hidden weapon." ”

Xu Rui was slightly stunned, Liu Yi came too quickly, and there was an episode of Li Kuang in the middle, and he had to deal with his injuries for Yingyu, leaving him too little time to fake the scene.

Originally, he expected that Liu Yi would not be entangled in this matter, and he could wait for the matter to pass and then Li Kuang would slowly lie, but he didn't expect to be seen through by Gonggong Cao.

Gonggong Cao is the emperor's eyes and ears, once this matter is poked out, then his identity as a secret chess player will definitely be exposed, not only will it be difficult to gain a foothold in the Northern Dynasty, but it may also cause other troubles.

Now that there is no one around, and Gonggong Cao doesn't know martial arts, taking the opportunity to kill him may be the best choice, but after all, he is the Northern Martial Guard Guard, and if he really wants to kill him, there will definitely be endless troubles.

Also, since Gonggong Cao has discovered the clues, he must not have no doubts about his identity, so what is the purpose of him stopping himself to explain this matter alone? How do you deal with this?

Xu Rui couldn't help frowning and hesitated.

Gonggong Cao stared at his every move expressionlessly, his face was cloudy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
