Chapter 242: Injury (1st Update)
Earlier that day.
Cao Bin, who was dragging his bloodied right leg, couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw the noisy streets of Yongzhou in front of him.
He did it! And it did! Although he almost fought for half his life, he finally lived up to the general's trust in him!
Before he left Zizhou that day, the general told him that everything was left to him.
Although the general didn't say much, the seriousness and solemnity on his face made Cao Bin's blood boil.
Such a life-threatening task was so lightly and without hesitation handed over to him, who had committed such a great crime before.
Cao Bin never thought that the first time he felt this unreserved trust was in a high-ranking general.
By his side, he can be redeemed.
At that moment, he couldn't have been more sure.
With great effort, he dragged the rag-like body with the little strength he had left, moving desperately forward.
When the people around him saw him, they all avoided him in shock, and some even screamed.
Cao Bin didn't seem to see it, only pursed his lips tightly, and moved forward desperately.
Be quick, be fast, general, their fate is in his hands at this moment!
Be sure to be fast!
Suddenly, a team of government soldiers quickly ran in front, and Cao Bin shook his head, and he was densely surrounded by people.
"Who's coming?"
He heard someone roaring in his ear, and his already dizzy head became more and more confused and dazed.
The team leading this team of government soldiers was looking at the suspicious man in front of him who was covered in dirt and his right leg was still dripping blood, and seeing that he didn't answer their words, he stepped forward with his sword and roared again, "If you don't report your true identity, don't blame us for not giving you a chance to speak!" ”
This roar seemed to hit his eardrums directly, Cao Bin's body shook, he was seriously injured and his already weak body was overdrawn in the past few days, he could no longer support it, and fell down with a "poof".
The team was startled and cautiously stepped forward with their swords, but suddenly, the man who fell to the ground grabbed the hem of his clothes.
His eyes widened in astonishment, and he was about to raise his foot to kick him away, but he saw his lips open and closed, as if to say something.
The team intuitively sensed that this was unusual, and looked closely at the shape of his mouth, and only after half a loud voice did they recognize what he was saying.
"Zizhou...... Northeast...... Wolf Smoke ...... What does this mean exactly? ”
……
At this time, outside the city of Zizhou.
Zou Nan was leading Su Yun towards their stronghold, because on the way they had to pass through a small forest outside the city, and the ground was overgrown with weeds and potholes.
Su Yun walked and walked, and when he was not careful, he seemed to have tripped over the protruding roots of a big tree, and he almost fell.
She hurriedly grabbed the big tree beside her, and suddenly a heart-piercing pain reached every nerve ending in her body.
She couldn't help but snort, her brows furrowed, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Zou Nan had turned around quickly when Su Yun was tripped, and when he saw that she had stabilized in time, and before he could recover his breath, he heard her moan, with a painful look on his face, and couldn't help but say nervously: "Madam, are you okay?" But what hurts? ”
Su Yun hurriedly stood up, quietly lowered his right hand, and smiled at Zou Nan, "I'm fine." ”
Zou Nan looked at her uneasily, with a pair of big eyes full of suspicion and worry at this time, he carefully observed her and asked, "Is it really okay?" ”
When they came back this time, they were followed either by him or a group of soldiers, or they were given ten dares, and they did not dare to be rude to their wife when the situation was not urgent.
Therefore, no matter how difficult this road is, they only dare to watch it carefully.
But Madame was obviously different from those women who were pampered in the boudoir, and she followed their pace all the way, and did not lag behind a single step.
Once, there was a fallen dead tree in front of them, and the thick trunk was in the middle of the road, and several of them walked directly over, and were worried about how the lady would come, when they turned around, they saw the woman who looked delicate and gentle, lifted her skirt, stepped directly onto the trunk, and jumped down again.
The action is elegant and delicate, but it is not unscrupulous and free.
They were a little stunned when he heard the woman's murmuring faintly drifting in the wind.
"Although I deliberately chose a skirt that is easy to move, in this case, it is really not suitable for any skirt, and I still have to change into men's clothes next time......"
Zou Nan listened with black lines all over his head.
I want to have a next time! Even if there is a next time, your subordinates will not dare to take you to action!
If you want to bring it, let the general bring it himself!
The past journey was very smooth, so much so that on the way back, Zou Nan relaxed a little, but he didn't expect an accident!
But it seems to ...... It's not an accident......
Looking at Zou Nan's frowning brows, Su Yun smiled, "It's really okay, let's go." ”
Zou Nan didn't have a problem, although no matter how he looked at his wife, he felt that something was wrong with her, but he couldn't say anything at this time stuck in the middle of the road, he just wanted to go back to their stronghold quickly, and there happened to be one of the people he brought who knew how to heal, so he could show his wife.
Seeing that Zou Nan finally turned around and walked forward, Su Yun sighed secretly, raised her left hand and gently pressed it on her right shoulder, it was such a gentle strength that made her feel a faint tingling.
She pursed her lips.
suddenly
"Vice General Zou! You see! Something seems to be happening in the city of Zizhou! ”
A soldier walking behind them suddenly shouted, and Zou Nan and Su Yun were startled at the same time and turned around suddenly.
Suddenly, the eyes of the two widened.
I saw that in the direction of Zizhou City, bursts of black smoke suddenly appeared, which means that there is a fire inside, and from the density and scope of the black smoke, the fire and the area on fire are not small!
What the hell is going on in town!
Su Yun's originally pale face suddenly turned transparent and white, and the fear and anxiety in his heart surged upward.
No matter what happens in the city, it's certain that it's no longer peaceful inside!
She was outside the city at this time, and she had no way of knowing what was going on in the city, and she wasn't even sure if Gu Junwei had saved Ming'er!
She still can't act rashly, at this time, what can she do? What can be done?
Su Yun took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, gritted his teeth and said sharply: "Zou Nan, quickly lead someone to the city gate to find out what happened!" Something so big happened in the city, it is impossible for the city gate to be unimplicated! ”
Zou Nan also quickly calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Yes! ”
Then he looked at the twenty soldiers who were following them, and said loudly: "Chen Sheng, Zhang Er will go with me, and the rest of the people will continue to escort Madame back to the stronghold!" ”
"Yes!"
At this time, it was noon, and the summer sun was shining brightly in the sky, illuminating this small piece of wood like a steamer, and the heat was mixed with a strong smell of grass and trees, Su Yun didn't know whether it was smoked or pressed by the weight of his heart, and he felt stuffy in his chest for a while, and he was a little out of breath.
Gu Junwei and Ming'er can't be fine, she can't imagine what her life will be like in the future if something happens to them.
……
In Wuyuan County, Zizhou City, there was a raging fire on the main street.
Hundreds of people fled from the burning house, wailing loudly.
"I'm going to kill someone! Liu Qingdao, this beast is not tolerated! ”
There were men banging on doors from house to house in case someone didn't get out in time.
Soon a large crowd gathered in the street, including men with heavy faces, women weeping and weeping, and children with frightened faces.
Everyone looked at their house engulfed in flames, and their faces were confused.
Why? Why are they so compromised, but Liu Qingdao still doesn't let them go?
Could it be that he really wants them all to die before he is willing!
A man with tears in his face suddenly stood up and shouted, "You see it! See! Giving in and dodging will not solve the problem at all, as long as the source of the bad luck is still there, we don't want to have a good life!
I told you back when my son was crushed to death and my wife was forcibly taken away by the beast!
What about you! None of you will listen to me! One by one, I'd rather live with my tail between my legs! You guys...... All of them are wreck! ”
The faces of everyone present changed, and many of them bowed their heads in silence, and a look of guilt flashed on their faces.
Remembering the despair when his wife was forcibly dragged away, he desperately begged the people around him for help, and everyone was just indifferent to him, and the man cried even more sadly, "Are you just willing?" My wife and children will not be the first to die tragically, let alone the last, are you really willing! ”
Many people already had a look of hesitation and resentment on their faces.
Of course, they were not reconciled.
But what can they do?
Seeing the loosening of their expressions, another man standing next to the man who was crying miserably took a step forward and shouted coldly, "If you are unwilling, rise up and resist!"
If we don't want our family to be hurt, we have the backbone to stand up!
As long as that beast is killed, Zizhou will still be our Zizhou!
Come on! Where have all the backbone men in Zizhou gone? After all these days, you've had enough! ”
