Chapter 24: The General Meets the General (12)
"Are you going home?"
Hearing Qin Gong's question, Shen Gong shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I always thought that I was favored at home, and until today I knew that I was nothing compared to my eldest brother. β
"Well," she said, glancing at the sky outside, "where are you going?" β
"I want to go back to Beiling Pass."
"Then I'll go back."
Before it was completely dark, Qin Gong received a notice that the task was issued.
Little 8: "Servant, you have to rush non-stop again, if it exceeds ten days, then this mission will fail." β
She didn't hesitate: "Okay." β
Little 8 breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she knew that it would be very hard for her, it had no extra energy, and if this mission failed, not only would it be destroyed, but she would also be cold.
After the night completely fell, those beggars saw that the two of them had no intention of leaving, and their faces suddenly turned bad, and just when they faintly began to be restless, Qin Gong got up.
She bowed down and picked up Shen Gong and walked outside.
Shen Gong: "......" being held like this when he was sober really has a strange sense of shame.
"I can walk on my own."
"Too slow."
ββ¦β¦β
The city gate was closed, and she carried him in her arms as she walked through the night, faintly hearing the sound of discussion in the other alleys about the wanton hunting of the infirmary, her eyes were deep, and with a turn of her feet, one jumped up and transferred to another alley, avoiding the guards patrolling the streets.
She circled all the way close to the city wall, until Xiao 8 determined the unguarded city wall, and then walked quickly with Shen Zhi.
Qin Zhi took Shen Gong to hurry overnight, knowing that he had only stopped in a small town when it was dark.
She left him out of town and flew away without saying a word.
Shen Gong watched her fade away until she disappeared, her thin body looking a little desolate outside the empty town. In the middle of it, he wiped his eyes and walked into the town.
Even if Qin Gong hurried again, his speed was reduced due to physical fatigue, and he only arrived at Beiling Pass on the ninth day, only one day away from the time limit.
At this time, she was in the dust, she was still wearing tattered clothes, even the piano behind her was a lot darker, and a pair of bloodshot tired eyes on her pale face were even more frightening.
Little 8 is about to die of heartache.
She hadn't had a good rest or a good meal for almost a month. It could feel her whole body clamoring for a strike, but she was holding it up.
"Target location."
ββ¦β¦β
β¦β¦
It's still late.
Gu Gu Guo was really ruthless this time, mobilizing all the lurking people to enter the Northern Ling Army as recruits, and quickly started to move after everyone mixed in.
Burning grain, burning houses, assassinating generals, assassinating military advisors, assassinating doctors...... Even poisoning in water.
Fortunately, Qu Xiuyuan happened to go to fetch water in person that day, found the poison in the water, and immediately sent someone to report to the general, and spent a lot of effort to detoxify the poison, so as not to cause greater losses to the Beiling Army.
As a result, most of their grain and grass were burned, and the general died, as did several lieutenants and some veterans. The Northern Ling army was leaderless for a while, and the Gugu Kingdom soon sent another 300,000 soldiers and horses to attack the city.
100,000 horses attacked the city, and 200,000 horses were ready to attack.
This time, the Gugu Kingdom is determined to capture the Beiling Pass, and the various siege equipment prepared is also very sufficient, and those who hit the city gate and climb the city wall are ...... All with a deadly ferocity.
All of a sudden, the speed at which the Northern Ling Army threw stones and arrows down could not compare to the speed at which they changed people and climbed the city.
The military advisor filtered all the people in the Beiling Army in his mind, and for a while, he couldn't find a candidate who was enough to be a general, and it wasn't until Gu Shu changed into armor and stepped forward with a gun that he made a decision.
Gu Shu's strength is not inferior to that of men, even worse than many Beiling Army, and she has been training with all the soldiers these days, and the officers and soldiers in the army have long been impressed by her, not to mention ...... She was Qin Gong's apprentice.
They don't know that the prince of Kyoto Rigen was killed by the Qin Army, but the last time the Qin Army fought a major battle between the two armies, he single-handedly scared back the enemy army.
Gu Shu temporarily served as the chief general of the Beiling Army, until the matter of sending a new general from the DPRK was accepted by the Beiling Army.
β¦β¦
When Qin Gong came with the piano on his feet, Gu Shu had already been the main general for three or four days, and the city gate was about to break.
Even though she was dirty, no one could recognize the piano in her hand just by her posture.
Beiling Army is overjoyed:
"Master!"
"Doctor Qin!"
"Immortal Qin is hereβ"
The soldiers of the Gugu Army, who had participated in the last battle, subconsciously retreated and panicked:
"It's the enchantress!"
"The enchantress is backβ"
"Hurry back!"
ββ¦β¦β
The recruits of the Gugu Army who had never seen Qin Servant were also stirred up by them.
Qin Shi stopped on the city wall of Beiling Pass, sat cross-legged on it, his red eyes were almost unable to see clearly, and his five fingers swept on the strings, as if the sound waves of substance were spreading outward in a fan shape, directly hitting the Gugu army.
This time, she didn't control the strength, she used all the remaining internal strength, and spent all her mind, and the music was uneven and close.
The people who were inside the sound wave were instantly devastated, bleeding from all seven orifices, and none of them survived.
Before the sound wave reached, the Gollum Army was frightened and incontinent, panicked, and ran wildly.
For a moment, all the Beiling troops looked at the woman playing the piano sitting on the city wall, and regarded them as gods.
What is this not a fairy means? Who has the ability to take tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of lives with the snap of a finger? With her protection, Beiling Pass will be invulnerable!
There was no one standing outside Beiling Pass, a few escaped, and most remained forever, lying on the ground as corpses.
When Qin Gong stopped, her eyes were completely unclear, and the internal force in her body collided disorderly in the meridians, and a mouthful of hot blood spurted out of her throat, and she fell straight down the city wall.
"Masterβ"
Gu Shu jumped down without saying a word, although he was not taught light by Qin Servant, but he also relied on his internal strength to hold Qin Servant with one hand, hold the piano in the other, and stop firmly on the ground with his strength.
β¦β¦
"Doctor Qu, how is my master?"
Qu Xiuyuan withdrew his hand that probed Qin Gong's pulse: "Lack of sleep, excessive hunger, and lack of physical strength...... The most serious thing is that there is a domineering and cold aura in her body that is rushing against her meridians, and if she can't find a way, she can't save it. β
Gu Shu immediately stretched out his hand to personally probe her pulse, and his face was a little unsightly.
That kind of aura is different from what the master taught her, it is extremely domineering and extremely cold, not as soft as the mental method she cultivates that can accommodate all things.
"If what I expected is right, it should be internal strength, you are her apprentice, has she taught you internal strength? If so, maybe only you can help her sort out the energy that is running around in her body. β
"I will do my best to save the master."
"I'm going to prepare the herbs."
Qu Xiuyuan walked out without the slightest stop. He has long had this kind of speculation, a long time ago, there were endless martial arts people who knew internal strength, but the emperors of the previous dynasties felt that those martial arts people were too unstable, so all countries united to exterminate the martial arts forces.
Several dynasties have continued, and that kind of supernatural internal strength has long become a legend, and it is a legend that most people don't know.
And he just so happened to know the legend.
I didn't expect that there were still martial arts people left in this world, and I didn't expect that the so-called internal strength could be so powerful, killing tens of thousands of troops with one person.
No wonder, no wonder the emperors of previous dynasties felt uneasy.
If Xiao 8 knew about it, he would definitely ridicule: Where can this be done with simple internal strength? Stupid humans.
It's a pity that it doesn't have a hobby of peeping into other people's minds, at this time it is worried about its own host, and has even begun to calculate whether the only remaining weak energy can contact other systems to ask for help, borrow some medicine or something, and return it when it has energy in the future.
