Chapter Eighty-Nine: Trapped
In the mountains and forests, there is occasionally the sound of birds spreading their wings and skimming over the greenery.
There are some loose footprints on the grass, which are formed by the interweaving of animal marks and pedestrian footprints.
A few people who had just recovered their physical strength quickly shuttled between the mountains and forests, running towards the place where they landed.
"Is this the way?" Lu Wanwan, who was hurrying away, asked Feng Nansang beside her over and over again.
Although the grass on the road had been trampled by the army, there was not even a shadow of it after walking for so long.
"It should be this way, Master may have led the team to find another place to station." Feng Nansang looked at the scorched marks of the nearby grass and quickened his pace.
"Why didn't my father leave a message?" The impatience that Lu Wanwan couldn't hide in her heart was all reflected in her words.
Feng Nansang, who was hurrying together, didn't know the reason, so he didn't say much.
The two of them kept checking the traces of General Lu leaving behind the camp nearby, and then tracked them down.
However, soon the clue was broken on the road, and after they passed the camp where the last General Lu was stationed, everything around them seemed to disappear, and there were no more footprints on the ground.
"It is necessary to hide the footprints during the march, it seems that the master has already noticed that something is wrong when he arrives here." Feng Nansang turned his head and pressed Lu Wanwan's shoulder with his hand and continued, "They should be around here." ”
"But we didn't see any enemy all the way, woe! I'm in an ambush, let's go! Although Lu Wanwan reacted, she was still a step late.
Arrow after arrow came at them from the grass, and the two of them were quick to draw their swords to block some of the attacks.
"I should have thought that the enemy would most likely be ambushing here, and those traces of encampment are all deliberately made traps by the enemy."
The two men swung their swords back-to-back to fend off attacks from all sides, and tried to find those hiding in the shadows.
"See, there." Feng Nansang turned her head to Lu Wanwan, who was leaning back against him, and at the same time pointed in one direction with the tip of her sword the moment she turned her head.
It was at such an instant that Feng Nansang bent down, and Lu Wanwan used his waist as a fulcrum to turn back. Feng Nan-san took the opportunity to grab her calf and throw it into the grass where the enemy was hiding, sealing her throat with a sword before the enemy could react.
Hiding in the grass makes it easy to find the enemy where the others are.
As the enemy continued to be exposed, the situation of the two of them began to reverse.
The remainders, under the command of the leader, abandoned the hiding and began a frontal attack.
"In front of the shield, surrounded by formation."
The enemy who received the order began to flexibly change formations, and finally surrounded the two of them.
The shield in front and the long grass in the rear coordinated perfectly, and the situation of the two of them becoming passive became extremely passive in an instant.
"What should I do?" Lu Wanwan asked.
After a long time of wheel fighting, the physical strength of the two began to be unbearable.
"Capture the thief and capture the king first, and find an opportunity to break through and attack the person in command."
Feng Nansang was already sweating profusely, and his sword-wielding movement gradually slowed down.
"The knife is in battle."
Now is the time.
The two of them had a tacit understanding, and seized the opportunity for the sword soldiers to enter the battle to break through through the opening.
Strangely, they did not see the man in command as they continued to resist the other forces.
"Here!"
The careful Lu Wanwan finally noticed that something was wrong, turned over and dodged a few people and stabbed at a soldier at the entrance of the formation.
It turned out that the commander-in-chief of the team was confused in the lineup.
The man saw that Lu Wanwan's moves were ruthless but he coped with them easily, and Feng Nansang, who was covering for her, could occasionally see that person's moves.
Calm, steady, every move and style have the demeanor of a general.
On the other side, Feng Nansang's physical strength was exhausted, and the first scars began to appear on his body.
Lu Wanwan was concerned about Feng Nansang and seemed absent-minded, which gave the man in command the upper hand.
"How can you be distracted when you're fighting an enemy?"
Lu Wanwan was defeated and retreated, but he still gritted his teeth and survived.
The enemy is outnumbered, and I can't taste the sweetness at all.
As time passed, the two were finally defeated, and the man pointed a spear at Lu Wanwan, who had fallen to the ground, and lifted the black scarf that covered his face.
Lu Wanwan, who was panting, saw his appearance clearly.
That's a face that doesn't lose to anyone.
is full of heroism, enough to make any woman tempted by him.
"The apprentices under the well-known General Lu's knees are nothing more than that."
Lu Wanwan snorted disdainfully when she heard this.
"Kill or kill as you please, tell me where my father is."
The man raised an eyebrow and withdrew the spear that was pointing at the landing night, "Why should I tell you, you are just a defeated soldier of mine." ”
"Huh."
Lu Wanwan didn't bother to pay attention to him, and turned her head to inspect Feng Nansang's injuries.
"You slaughtered those villages?"
Feng Nansang's face was a little pale, although he was now a prisoner, he still maintained his majesty as a prince.
"It's worthy of being a prince, obviously he has become a prisoner, but his tone is still so high-minded."
The man's thin lips opened slightly, and his eyes were full of conceit, but he didn't give Feng Nansang an answer, so he let them be escorted.
Despite this, Feng Nansang and the others remained silent.
The soldiers under the man's hand blindfolded the two to prevent them from revealing their positions quickly.
There was silence along the way, but the path in the future tense out of instinct was recorded.
This is true for both.
As Moyo approached an hour, he finally heard the voices of the other soldiers.
After the conversation, the gate of the base area opened, and after a while, Lu Wanwan and Feng Nansang were pushed into the adjacent prison by the soldiers.
Occasionally, there was the sound of chains clashing against each other, the moans of prisoners after being whipped, and the low sobs. The breath of dead silence spread throughout the prison, gradually seeping from the eardrums of Lu Wanwan and Feng Nansang all the way to the heart.
"What are you thinking?" The two men whose blindfolds had been removed leaned back to back across the walls of the cell.
Feng Nansang was originally thinking back to the number of steps when he came, but he was stunned for a moment when he heard Lu Wanwan ask, and then he couldn't help but chuckle.
"I was thinking about the first time I was in a cell." His mouth was slightly hooked, and his tone was relaxed.
Lu Wanwan also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart after hearing this, and then quipped: "Yes, I also thought about this day, but I didn't expect it to come so early." ”
"If I don't be lazy when I practice martial arts, maybe we will be locked up later." Fengnan Sangwaner, although in this kind of cell, has an unprecedented sense of calm. Like the motionless dead leaf butterfly hidden in the dead leaves, quietly feel the passage of time.
"But you're still going to be locked up, so it's better to save some energy and get some sleep and think about when to die."
Although it is a sad word, it makes people have a firmer belief in their hearts.
Who wouldn't want to live?
"I don't know what happened to Daddy, Daddy." Lu Wanwan looked up at the dirty cell door in a daze.
"There shouldn't be any problem with the flying eagle following, and Hua Qianchu."
When I thought of the little kid who always liked to wear white, I couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
"What do you say will happen to Huahua and Qiqi in the future?"
Girls are always looking forward to the future, even a strong girl like Lu Wanwan is no exception.
"Who knows, what's to come."
I don't know if I'll die here, after all, people have been in ambush for so long.
I vaguely heard that these people were hoping to use them to lure out General Lu and his party.
"What are you talking about?" A man slapped the door of their cell with great force, and the chains on the door made an impatient clanging sound.
"Do you understand that prisoners are forbidden to talk to each other?"
Lu Wanwan closed her mouth in amusement, but Feng Nansang apologized apologetically. Although he was smiling on his face, the chill in his eyes was self-evident.
"I'm sorry, big brother guard, this is the first time we have been in prison, and we don't know the rules in this cell, please forgive us this time."
The guard snorted disdainfully, and seemed to be pleased with Feng Nansang's attitude: "Be obedient in the cell in the future, so that you can suffer less." ”
"Forget it, don't talk too much." At this time, another guard said, "The general has explained that these two people are very important, let's leave after delivering the meal." ”
"That's right, it's your meal today." The guard opened the small window at the bottom of the cell door, then put down the prison meal and left.
"Tsk, it's really a tiger falling in Pingyang and being bullied by dogs." Lu Wanwan looked at the plate of dishes in front of her, and she had no appetite at all.
Feng Nansang looked at it openly, and his tone was relaxed: "It's not that people have to bow their heads under the eaves, and they will endure it." ”
With that, he silently ate the steamed bun with the snow mark on the bottom and ate it.
Sure enough, the people of Xuedi are really everywhere, and even in this army that is raised, there are people from Xuedi.
His heart sank, and he didn't know whether he was friend or foe, or it was better not to act rashly first.
However, Snow will always be a scourge, and it is necessary to eradicate them.
"That, Ahsan." Lu Wanwan suddenly called him, "What's your meal?" ”
"Ah, a very hard steamed bun and a white porridge without rice, plus a little pickle." Monk Feng Nansang was puzzled by this question, "Why do you suddenly ask this?" ”
"No, nothing."
I don't know how long the time passed, and the two people who were seriously physically exhausted fell into a light sleep after eating, but not long after they had just rested, the jailer came to knock on the door again.
"I really admire you two for still being able to sleep in this kind of place." A large string of keys to the cell door clanged in the jailer's hand.
He directly ignored Feng Nansang, picked out one of the many keys and opened Lu Wanwan's prison door.
"The general asked you to come over, you better settle down and go with us."
At a time like this?
"Late, late." Feng Nansang stopped her uneasily, and Lu Wanwan turned around and smiled, just like usual.
Usually, she will always wear a pale goose yellow dress, face his irritability, and smile quietly.
"Be careful."
Lu Wanwan nodded quietly, getting farther and farther away from Feng Nansang.
After Lu Wanwan left, Feng Nansang sat on the ground decadently, and a feeling of unknown meaning in his heart gradually replaced his remaining calmness.
Loneliness and helplessness are such feelings.
When Feng Nanqi was trapped, did he feel the same way? How could he lose to that little girl? You have to pick yourself up.
On the other side, Lu Wanwan was not forcibly blindfolded when she was taken out, which allowed her to see the structure of the entire camp clearly.
This barracks is not small, but it is arranged like a small village, and the men are all doing farm work, and if it is not for the fact that they have not seen women, it is easy to hide the past.
So they caught women between them just to hide their eyes?
Lu Wanwan thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to draw conclusions.
The soldiers were well trained, and they didn't show too many doubts when they saw Lu Wanwan looking around like this.
"General, the person you want has been brought." The jailer was in front of a room and the door was opened.
The person who opened the door was another soldier, and the jailer motioned for Lu Wanwan to enter, she hesitated for a moment and stepped into the door, and at that moment, the door was slammed shut.
Lu Wanwan was taken aback, took a deep breath, settled down, and walked towards the house.
The general was carefully wiping his sword, and he didn't raise his head even when Lu Wanwan came in.
"Miss Lu can find a place to sit by herself, please don't be restrained in a small place." The man raised his head, and his heroic and uninhibited face was completely exposed to Lu Wanwan's field of vision.
Defensive, he sat down across from him.
"I know you have a lot of questions, so take this opportunity to ask them all." There was a coldness in his eyes.
Lu Wanwan was silent for a while and didn't ask, but the man was patient and didn't urge her.
"This is the only opportunity, and if you miss it, you won't miss it." The saber had almost been wiped away, and Lu Wanwan could even see that the cloth used to wipe it in the man's hand had been cut several thin cuts.
He poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Lu Wanwan, and the two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and in the end, Lu Wanwan was defeated.
She took a sip of water and began to speak: "There's nothing I want to ask, you won't say what I want to know, I know the rest." ”
"Then don't you ask why I called you here?" The man looked at her lightly, Lu Wanwan couldn't see anything in his eyes.
"If hostages can still be treated differently, then why am I the only one called by you?" Lu Wanwan suddenly cocked Erlang's legs, leaning back against the chair, looking at him arrogantly.
The man was shocked by her sudden appearance and couldn't help laughing.
"You look so arrogant, aren't you afraid that I will kill you directly?" There was a temptation in his words, but Lu Wanwan still had a fearless expression.
She picked up the glass of water on the table and drank it down, "Why be afraid of death?" What I want most in my life is to be an invincible general on the battlefield, to let you dog men know that we women are not waste people who can only support their families at home. ”
Her eyes flashed with pride, and the stubborn look made the man opposite her reluctant to look away.
"So, even if I die here today, I don't care."
If they used her to threaten Lu Jingxiu, she would give up her life.
As the daughter of a general, she will definitely not let her existence become a threat to the interests of the country.
