Chapter Ninety-Four: What Are You Afraid of?
Chen Daniu stretched out a hand behind him, staring at her with bright eyes.
Mu Yu involuntarily put his hand in his palm and smiled back: "Okay." โ
His back was wide enough, thick enough to protect her from any unknown danger ahead.
The two of them walked along the canyon like walking on thin ice, shuttling through this dark place.
The wind squeezed through the narrow slits, sharply across the cheeks, skimmed the treetops, and hid deep in the forest.
The moment they passed through this dark place, the sound of fierce fights and the sound of swords and halberds colluding suddenly poured into the ears of the two of them like a tide.
Looking closely, the previously dead and silent garrison was now in flames, chaotic and noisy, and the two armies were fiercely confronting.
"It's General Feng!"
Mu Yu was a little excited, it seemed that there was no need for her to go back, Feng Yu had already expected what the situation was here, and he led the army to kill him directly.
It seems that the battle lasted from midnight until dawn.
Far away, avoiding the chaotic battlefield, Mu Yu saw Feng Yu who was fighting with a person, at this time, he was wearing armor all over his body, and his face was stained with blood, and his solemn face was full of murderous intent, like a hellish Yama.
It's chilling and intimidating.
"Brother Niu, look, General Feng is here!" Mu Yu pointed to the figure and said excitedly.
"It's him, he expected it." Chen Da Niu stood on the rock wall with his hands behind his back, and the wind lifted his long hair.
Mu Yu immediately pulled Chen Daniu and said, "Let's go too." โ
"No, this battle is almost over."
Mu Yu asked, "How do you know?" โ
"What kind of situation is clear at a glance, you see, although the northerners are still resisting, but there are only a few hundred, and the main force of General Feng's army is still in the rear, coming to the rescue at any time, however, this kind of scene does not need rescue at all, and General Feng alone can win."
Mu Yu stood on the rock wall and looked up at the two figures surrounded by the two armies in the center, and said, "Yes, the person who fought against General Feng seems to be physically exhausted." โ
I saw Feng Yu wielding a halberd to slash at the opponent's general, although the general also blocked it, but he was powerless, and he took dozens of steps back before he fixed his figure, wanting to turn defense into offense, but he was still suppressed by Feng Yu. The general gritted his teeth and held on, Feng Yu saw this, kicked at the soft place of his waist and abdomen, and the man also flew up to block it, and Feng Yu took the opportunity to use his arms to press down the opponent's halberd with the whole person.
"Feng Yu, you can't defeat the general!" The man cried stubbornly.
The other party resisted stubbornly, but Feng Yu was not in a hurry, and kicked him on the chin.
"Poofโ"
The general flew upside down and fell on the grass not far away, spitting out a mouthful of blood, trying to struggle to get up but could not do anything.
Feng Yu's face was expressionless, and he stepped forward step by step, and pierced his chest with a wave of his halberd.
The general stared at Feng Yu with an indifferent face, and after a while, he lost his breath.
Beads of sweat dripped down Feng Yu's face mixed with blood, blending into the dirt under his feet.
As soon as this side ended, the northerners who were still resisting suddenly panicked because they had no commander, and those who reacted quickly disarmed and surrendered, and those who reacted slowly were all killed.
At this moment, as if sensing something, Feng Yu raised his eyes and glanced at the rock wall at the front of the canyon, and met Mu Yu's frightened gaze at the moment.
The gaze was both familiar and unfamiliar.
Seeing this, Chen Daniu, who was standing behind Mu Yu, put his palm on Mu Yu's shoulder and reminded softly: "Mu Yu, this battle is over." โ
Mu Yu came back to his senses suddenly, and saw that Feng Yu saw him, so he slowly climbed down the rock wall and walked to the chaotic and messy battlefield.
Behind him, Chen Daniu followed silently.
The whole battlefield was nothing more than an empty field, now strewn with corpses, and the air was furious with the scorching sun overhead.
"General Feng, it's too late for your subordinates!" Mu Yu knelt on one knee, full of apologies.
She failed to complete the first task given to her by Feng Yu, no matter what, she only blamed herself in her heart.
"It's good that you come back alive, and you don't need to blame yourself."
Feng Yu gently helped her up.
Mu Yu didn't even have the courage to look at him, so she could only hang her head and let him help her get up.
"Help clean up the battlefield and follow the team back to camp later." Feng Yu said.
"yes, okay."
Mu Yu breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, Feng Yu didn't ask anything, but this made Mu Yu feel a little uneasy in his heart. She looked back at Brother Da Niu, but Brother Da Niu smiled at her, and his eyes were crooked with a smile.
It was nearly noon when the army finally returned to its camp, with a few sentries still left there to guard the day.
The captives of the northern kingdom were escorted back and guarded in the newly built tents.
Mu Yu changed back into his military uniform and was called to his big tent by Feng Yu.
Because this battle was at night, Feng Yu fought fiercely all night, looking very tired, and he still gave people a feeling of indifference when he had lost his armor.
Mu Yu couldn't help but think of this morning's cruel scene in his mind - Feng Yu treated the dying enemy as if he was facing this dying beast, not a person.
Mu Yu stood in the tent, looking at him, his lips trembling and his face pale.
Feng Yu was sitting cross-legged on the couch, and when he saw Mu Yu coming, his eyes that were originally closed and recuperated opened and saw her frightened look, and he couldn't help asking, "Han Xiaoxi, are you unwell?" โ
"Ah, no, no, I, my subordinates are fine." Mu Yu replied to his words in fear.
Feng Yu was still expressionless, looking at him lightly, and suddenly bent his lips, and the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes: "I heard that you were captured by the enemy, why did you come back?" โ
This should be a reproach.
Mu Yu immediately knelt on one knee and said: "General Hui, his subordinates escaped while the guards were asleep, and Chen Daniu, he was worried about me and went to find me, but he was also captured by the enemy, and he also escaped, he can testify for me, I didn't ...... There was no betrayal of the generals! โ
Han Xiaoxi trembled, almost incoherent.
"What are you so nervous about? I didn't say you betrayed me. His tone was still very gentle, and Mu Yu glanced at him, he was still expressionless, but the corners of his eyes were full of smiles.
"Han Xiaoxi, are you really not feeling well?" Feng Yu asked again, and after that, he stood up and continued: "That's it, I see that you are not keeping, it seems that your head is not clear, and you will come to me when you think about it." โ
"Yes, General."
Mu Yu's heart fell to the ground.
Out of the tent, a gust of wind blew, Mu Yu felt a chill on his head, and when he touched it with his hand, it was all sweat.
What was she afraid of?
