Chapter 077: General Yin is gone
"Xichen! Snapshot Scorpion Armor said to do! If you have any questions, I'll talk about it again when General Yin returns. Fast! ”
Ah Xiyan said to Ah Xichen without thinking.
The reason why Ah Xiyan is so nervous is because she trusts Scorpion Armor extremely much, and she knows that Scorpion Armor is extraordinary, and there should be no one who can make him feel uneasy.
Then there is only one possibility, the scorpion armor has vaguely guessed the origin of the killer, and the other party's skills are probably not inferior to him.
Otherwise, he would not have said with such confidence that once General Yin caught up with the other party, he would definitely die.
This means that General Yin has no power to fight back in front of the other party, although General Yin is a fierce general in the eyes of her father, the general.
In other words, the other party is definitely not an ordinary killer, maybe a top master who has received special death training like a poisonous scorpion dead soldier.
It's not impossible to even come from a dangerous place like the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons that ordinary people can't survive.
"Okay, sister!"
Ashchen replied without the slightest hesitation.
"Whew!"
After finishing speaking, he hurriedly got out of the carriage, took out a ringing arrow from the quiver on his back, pulled his bow and shot it into the sky.
Suddenly, a crisp and piercing sound could be clearly heard within a radius of several miles, cutting through the silent sky.
After Ah Xichen shot the arrow, he also got on his horse again, staring closely at the direction where General Yin had left before, ready to set off to meet General Yin at any time.
Although Ah Xichen didn't know much about the Scorpion Armor, he didn't hesitate to do so when he saw his sister so nervously asking him to notify General Yin to come back immediately.
Because after Ah Xiyan left last night, he also listened to the general tell the complete story of abandoning Ah Xiyan seventeen years ago, and learned from the eldest lady about Ah Xiyan's experience in the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons in the past seventeen years.
After learning that his own sister had grown up in the harsh environment of the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, which was full of poisonous insects and poisonous weeds, Ah Xichen also felt very sorry for this only sister.
It is also an unconditional trust in this sister who has been missing for seventeen years, and for him, no matter what his sister does in the future, he will do his best to help his sister.
I also want to take the opportunity of escorting my sister to the border to treat my sister well and make up for the suffering my sister has suffered in the past 17 years.
So before Scorpion Jia didn't explain why, Ah Xichen still decisively followed his sister's request to inform General Yin that he had returned.
Although this was contrary to the military order, and even when General Yin heard the sound of arrows and rushed back, he would blame him for firing arrows indiscriminately without a clear reason, causing General Yin to miss the best opportunity to catch the killer and punish him on the spot, he did not hesitate to do so.
Because Ah Xichen could feel that Ah Xiyan believed in the scorpion armor very much, and he believed in his sister 100%, then it was equivalent to trusting the scorpion armor unconditionally.
When Ashin fired the arrow, the scorpion armor also picked up the snake skin on the ground, and after returning to the carriage driver's position and sitting down, while vigilantly paying attention to the movements around him, he carefully checked the snake skin in his hand again, as if he was still desperately trying to remember and confirm something.
And Ah Xiyan was also quite confused and sat in the carriage waiting for the news of General Yin's return.
However, a quarter of an hour passed, and there was still no movement.
When she didn't see any signs of General Yin's return for a long time, Ah Xiyan gradually had a bad premonition in her heart, and she couldn't sit still and got out of the carriage and looked into the dense forest.
After seeing Ah Xiyan get out of the carriage, Scorpion Armor also jumped out of the carriage and always stayed by Ah Xiyan's side to protect her every step of the way.
It's just that he still picks up the snake skin in his hand from time to time to take a look, and falls into memories again.
However, from his expression, he could see that he was about to see the secret hidden in the snakeskin, but only a little bit.
Ah Xiyan has also been paying attention to the Scorpion Armor's actions, and wanted to ask the Scorpion Armor, but seeing that he didn't seem to have fully figured it out, she didn't bother him.
"Xichen, why hasn't General Yin come back yet?"
After looking at the dense forest for a while, Ah Xiyan slowly came to Ah Xichen's side and asked.
"Shouldn't it? Although General Yin specially emphasized before setting off that when he left to track down the whereabouts of the killer, he was not allowed to send an arrow to inform him unless he had to do so, so as not to disturb his important matter of tracking down the killer. But he also said that as soon as the arrow was fired, he would not hesitate to rush back. The longest will not exceed half an hour. But a quarter of an hour has passed, and he should have come back a long time ago. This General Yin has always done things neatly and extremely punctual, which has never happened before. ”
When Ah Xichen saw Ah Xiyan coming, he also dismounted and replied with a blank face.
"Can I borrow your arrows?"
Scorpion Armor, who had been silent, suddenly looked at Ah Xichen with a somewhat strange expression and asked.
From his expression, it seemed that he finally had an eyebrow, but he still needed to confirm it.
Ah Xichen instinctively glanced at Ah Xiyan, and after seeing Ah Xiyan nodding, he took out another ringing arrow from the quiver on his back and handed it to the scorpion armor along with the curved bow.
After taking the bow and the arrow, the scorpion first tied the snakeskin to the arrow and shot it at the far top of the boulevard.
"Whew!"
With a piercing sound, the snakeskin-tied arrows instantly shot into the distant sky.
"Boom! Syllable! ”
And it burns up automatically, turning into a fireball and exploding.
It stands to reason that the arrows will not burn and explode, so this strange phenomenon also attracted the attention of more than a dozen other soldiers, and they all raised their heads and looked over.
After reading it, he also looked at the scorpion armor holding the curved bow with a puzzled expression.
After all, they hadn't noticed that the scorpion armor had snakeskins tied to the arrows.
"That's right! It turned out to be really them! It seems that their existence is not a legend! ”
After seeing the sound of the arrow explode and burst into flames, the scorpion armor said to himself in a tone of sudden realization.
"What's going on? This snakeskin seems strange, huh? ”
Ah Xichen was extremely shocked to look at the fragments of arrows that slowly fell down after the air exploded and burned, and asked puzzledly.
"Yes, Scorpion, have you seen anything? Let's talk about what's going on, right? I saw that you had been checking the snakeskin, so I didn't bother you, I guess you've figured out why, right? ”
A Xiyan also couldn't wait to ask.
"Valley Master, I think I've guessed the other party's origin. I'm afraid we're going to be annoyed this time! General Yin, I can already be completely sure that he is dead! And the whole body was reduced to ashes and died! If you don't believe me, you can send two people to the tree about a mile in the direction of General Yin's departure, and you should be able to find General Yin's intact clothes hanging there. Don't worry, the other party left after killing General Yin. There will be no danger to those who are sent. As long as we don't continue to advance in the direction of the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, the other party will not attack us again. But if we continue to set out, we will go ten miles at most, and we will all die at her hands except for the valley lord. And I can't deal with her, and I can't deal with her. Because she is no less than the existence of the Kirin Saint. I thought the legend I saw back then was fake, but now it seems to be true. And the disappearance of the Qilin Saints is probably because they are making trouble in the dark! ”
There was a look of despair in Scorpion Jia's eyes, and he whispered in a voice that only Ah Xiyan and Ah Xichen could hear.
"What! No less than a unicorn...... Oh, Xichen, this way, you immediately take a few more people to the location mentioned by the Scorpion Armor to get General Yin back. If you want to see people in life, you will see corpses in death, go. I'd like to talk to Scorpion Armor about something alone. ”
After listening to the words of the scorpion armor, Ah Xiyan also shouted loudly, but soon felt that the secret of the Qilin Saint could not be easily revealed, so she hurriedly endured it and did not say it.
arranged for Ah Xichen to go to General Yin to confirm Scorpion Armor's speculation, and she herself wanted to take this opportunity to have a good chat with Scorpion Armor alone.
"Okay, sister!"
Ashchen replied without objection.
After finishing speaking, he took five soldiers and flew into the dense forest and rushed in the direction where General Yin was missing.
Since the general had specially explained before coming, General Yin was solely responsible for escorting A Xiyan to the border pass this time.
Ah Xichen assisted General Yin as a lieutenant general, and once General Yin encountered an accident, Ah Xichen would take over the mission with full authority.
Therefore, the other soldiers also obeyed Ashchen's orders unconditionally.
Especially when General Yin hadn't come back after seeing Ah Xichen send out the arrows for a quarter of an hour, everyone also guessed the possibility that General Yin had already had an accident.
It was also natural to acquiesce to Ashchen, the new person in charge.
Although before leaving, General Yin also emphasized that this trip to the border pass may be extremely dangerous, even nine deaths, after all, there is still to face the plague and cross the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons.
In particular, it is even more unpredictable to finally enter the border gates of neighboring countries.
But all the soldiers, including Ah Xichen, didn't think that the way there was very dangerous, and they all felt that they would at least have to enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons before there would be casualties.
But it is not an hour before you set off at this moment, and it is still far from the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, and General Yin, who is actually the leader, has an accident, which can't help but make everyone feel that the chances of coming back alive from this trip to the border pass are even slimmer.
This General Yin is a battle-hardened general, and his skills are the best in escorting Miss A to the border pass, and now that even he has an accident, aren't the others even more powerless?
Therefore, after Ah Xichen entered the dense forest with five soldiers, the soldiers who stayed to protect Ah Xiyan were also so nervous that they stared around as if they were facing a great enemy, for fear that they might be the next to die.
"Scorpion Armor, you said that the other party is no less than the existence of the Qilin Saint, why haven't I heard the original valley master, that is, my grandmother talk about it? Where did you hear about this legend? What the hell is going on, tell me about it, right? And why did that snakeskin burn and explode? You must have guessed the origin of the other party through the snakeskin, right? ”
After Ah Xiyan saw Ah Xichen lead people away, she glanced at the nervous soldiers who were protecting her nearby, and hurriedly asked in a low voice.
And after Scorpion Jia said something next, it also shocked Ah Xiyan to the point that it was difficult to accept......
