Article 396
In the face of Fang Qing's complaints, the two shook their heads in unison, did not answer Fang Qing, and then one took the fish and the other took the pot and walked to the lit fire. Then, while cooking soup and grilling fish, Lin Xuanzhong and Bai Ye got busy.
While Lin Xuanzhong and Bai Ye were busy, Princess Lan Xin and Han Xuan had already woken up.
A few days of running around made Han Xuan's face very haggard, but after a night's rest, Han Xuan's complexion was no longer as pale as yesterday, and now Han Xuan was taking care of Ni Youbin and talking to Ni Youbin. Princess Lan Xin strangely observed Han Xuan's one-way communication. Seeing that Ni Youbin never spoke, Princess Lan Xin thought that Ni Youbin was a mute.
It wasn't until Fang Qing, who was on the side, asked about Ni Youbin's situation because he was curious about what was going on with Ni Youbin, that Han Xuan told the others about Ni Youbin's situation. Later, everyone learned that Ni Youbin was too sad about Ni Ming's death, so he was reluctant to speak.
Han Xuan's words made Lin Xuanzhong very touched, if Qingfeng fell to the same fate, I am afraid that Lin Xuanzhong would be even more sad, but now Lin Xuanzhong didn't even know the slightest news about Qingfeng. As for the others, some people are very sympathetic to Ni Youbin, and some don't understand why Ni Youbin is so sad, after all, it is just a servant who died.
When Han Xuan told Ni You's situation, Han Xuan could only speak to Ni Youbin alone.
"Do you really want to do this? Do you think that this can be the right thing for Ni Ming?" Han Xuan has a contradictory opinion about Ni Youbin, Ni Youbin can grieve for Ni Ming like this, it is enough to see that Ni Youbin is a person who values love and righteousness, but Ni Youbin is so depressed at the same time, which makes Han Xuan feel that Ni Youbin does not look like a son who has received key training. Ni Youbin is too presumptuous, especially when they are still under the fence.
"Ni Youbin, do you dare to ask yourself if Ni Ming will be happy because of your sadness?" Han Xuan held an unrelenting attitude, just wanting Ni Youbin to cheer up.
In Han Xuan's opinion, it is not easy for Ni Youbin to be alive, if he doesn't eat or drink all the time, then what's the point of what Ni Ming, Lin Xuanzhong and those Ni family guards do. No matter what aspect it is, Han Xuan can't let Ni Youbin give up on himself. Regardless of how much impact what he said now would have on Ni Youbin, Han Xuan must cheer Ni Youbin up.
On the other side, Ni Youbin was there, when Lin Xuanzhong appeared yesterday, Ni Youbin already thought that he would die, although he was later rescued by Lin Xuanzhong, but subconsciously, Ni Youbin thought that he had to die, and later it was completely because he was worried about Han Xuan's safety that Ni Youbin let himself try to stay awake.
Now that Han Xuan is fine, Ni Youbin just wants to immerse himself in his own world to comfort Ni Ming's spirit in the sky. Although everything Han Xuan said made sense, Ni Youbin's eyes would tremble from time to time, but Ni Youbin never wanted to respond.
"Don't you want to avenge Ni Ming?"
"Think," until Han Xuan mentioned this, Ni Youbin finally spoke.
"Then you sit up and eat something first!" Seeing that what he said finally worked, Han Xuan immediately seized the opportunity.
Thinking that he was going to avenge Ni Ming, Ni Youbin finally had a surge of strength in his body, and he struggled to get up. Then with the help of Han Xuan, Ni Youbin was helped to sit up.
Ni Youbin's body is tied with strips of cloth, and he looks exactly the same as Fang Qing sitting next to him, but the current Fang Qing's complexion is not known how many times better than Ni Youbin.
Today's fish soup is dedicated to Ni Youbin and Han Xuan, and everyone else eats grilled fish. Having said that, the grilled fish and fish soup had been eaten for several days, and Lin Xuanzhong didn't have much interest in these two things, but they just didn't have a food choice.
After breakfast, Lin Xuanzhong asked Bai Ye to stay with the others, while he rode outside to investigate the situation, and Liu Neng was accompanied by Lin Xuanzhong, and the two of them each rode a horse.
Just in case, the rest of the horses were already tied not far from the cave, and if Lin Xuanzhong and Liu Neng brought back special circumstances, the others needed to ride the horses and leave as fast as possible.
Not long after Lin Xuanzhong and Liu Neng left, Ni Mei was chased by Wu Wanyi and the three of them until the evening yesterday, and in the night, Ni Mei found a remote location to avoid the tracking of the three.
After chasing for several hours in a row and finally finding nothing, Wu Wanyi and the three of them were furious, eager to find out Ni Mei's body and break it to pieces, but unfortunately after losing Ni Mei's traces, they could only think about it in their hearts.
An hour after Ni Mei's trace disappeared, the three of them briefly discussed their plans to go back to meet their companions, but the situation was not as rosy as they thought.
After walking along the road they had come from for half a day, the trio did not meet their companions. The night was too dark, and after continuing some further along, they were tired of resting for the night and then meeting up with their companions the morrow.
Now that the three of them have returned to the place where the two sides fought yesterday, the bodies of Ni Ming and several Ni family guards are still there, and there is no trace of their companions, and the three of them continue to walk forward. went all the way to the location where Lin Xuanzhong rescued Han Xuan and Ni Youbin, and when they arrived, there were only four corpses on the ground.
After confirming that the four corpses were their companions, the three of them dispelled the suspicions that Xianhua might be on Ni Youbin and Han Xuan, and then under Wu Wanyi's orders, the two sixth-order martial cultivators examined their corpses, each corpse had one or two wounds, and the wounds were in the fatal position.
"Second brother, they seem to have been killed by a high-level martial cultivator, and they are all fatal with one blow. ”
"Big brother, should we go and kill the second brother and their enemies," the death of the four companions made the two sixth-order martial cultivators very angry and panicked at the same time.
At the same time, Wu Wanyi's face was already gloomy, he didn't get the fairy flower, and he sacrificed four brothers, their losses were too great and could not be made up.
"The people who killed them shot cleanly, I'm afraid that the strength is not less than mine, it's useless to chase after them in our current state, let's find a place to bury them first." "The seven people have always been rampant in the past, but they didn't expect to encounter such a thing, Wu Wanyi could only choose to swallow his anger while being angry.
After Wu Wanyi evaluated Lin Xuanzhong's strength based on the causes of death of his four companions, the other two had already realized the seriousness of the matter, and perhaps killing them did not have the strength to take revenge at all. In this way, how can they follow the traces. As a result, the two could only find a place to dig a pit and bury the bodies of several companions here according to Wu Wanyi's instructions.
While the three of them were busy burying their companion's body, Ni Mei had a night of hiding in a dangerous position. Early the next morning, he could only be wounded and run in the mountains. The injury was very serious and she hadn't eaten for two days, Ni Mei's physical condition was very poor now, and she couldn't even beat a sixth-order martial cultivator.
While looking for food and recuperating from her injuries, Ni Mei could only walk slowly in the mountains.
Time flies quickly, two days pass in a blink of an eye. Everything was normal for two days, nothing happened, Lin Xuanzhong and the others felt that Wu Wanyi and the three of them would not chase after them again, but Han Xuan and Ni Youbin were more worried about Ni Mei's safety.
It was a fact that the martial cultivators in the mountain range were about to come out, so according to the results of the previous discussion between Lin Xuanzhong and Bai Ye, they planned to leave today.
In the past two days, because of Han Xuan's careful care, Ni Youbin's injury has improved greatly, and his complexion is far better now than when he was injured.
Last night, Lin Xuanzhong and Bai Ye had already explained their decision to leave early to the others, and after breakfast this morning, with some fish, the group was ready to set off as soon as possible.
Since Han Xuan and Ni Youbin couldn't ride a horse alone, they were carried by others, Lin Xuanzhong took Princess Lan Xin, and pulled the horse that no one was riding. Not long after, the group set off towards the outside of the mountain range at a slow pace.
They still have a long way to go, and no one knows if they will encounter danger on the road.
In a blink of an eye, it had been a time since Lin Xuanzhong and the others left the fortress. In the past month, the beast suppression operation around Cloud City has been going on, and now those fierce beasts that are causing trouble everywhere have been almost killed by the Night Army, and the problem of beast plagues in many places has been solved, and the surrounding area of Cloud City has returned to its former calm.
It is worth mentioning that because of the existence of the army, the fierce beasts that originally came out of the fierce forest returned to the fierce forest and returned to the place where they used to live. At this moment, on the side of the fortress outside Cloud City, in a camp, some generals gathered together.
"General Lin, they've been gone for almost a month, why haven't they come back now?"
"Yes, His Royal Highness Lan Feng and the princess are in that team, which is really worrying. ”
"If something goes wrong, how are we going to explain it to the royal family. ”
"I knew that I would send two more generals, so at least I would be relieved. ”
"Originally, I wanted General Li to accompany His Highness to them, but His Highness Lan Feng insisted that only one general would lead the team. ”
In the camp tent, some generals kept talking about Lin Xuanzhong and them.
Fang Quyin, the commander of the arrow battalion who was sitting in the main seat, frowned, and it was very annoying to listen to his subordinates. Originally, the task of slaying the beast was about to end, and they were about to go back to resume their lives, but they couldn't wait for General Lin and his party to come back, Fang Quyin regretted a little at the moment and let General Lin and them pursue an illusory thing.
To go to the mountain range, you need to pass through the fierce forest first, even if there is a seventh-order martial cultivator with you, Lin Xuanzhong and his party may not be safe. But think about it in another direction, General Lin and his party have a long way to go, and even if they encounter a small trouble on the road, it may be delayed for a few days, so there is nothing abnormal about coming back later. In any case, if General Lin did not return for a day, they stayed in the fortress for one more day.
"Generals don't need to say much, you just need to do a good job of killing the beast, and the rest of the things will naturally be borne by the generals," At the critical moment, Fang Quyin used his power as the main general to suppress the generals.
