Allure (13)
How is this possible?!
He Liancheng in Beidi, and even in the world, can be regarded as a famous general, flexible with soldiers, brave and decisive, military talent is not inferior to his father He Yuanshan, in the past two years he led the army to fight large and small battles, not to mention dozens of battles, very few defeats, how can he be so easily defeated and die?
But I can't help but believe the facts. Because this is a notice issued by the royal family of Beidi.
A few days ago, the protector general He Liancheng led 5,000 elite cavalry, and the 10,000 army of the Dongyue Kingdom fought fiercely in Eagle Hill, and finally because of being outnumbered, unfortunately defeated, 5,000 elite soldiers were wiped out, and he was also hit by several arrows, and died in battle.
Beidi mourns the whole country!
While the whole country of Beidi was mourning him, I was already lying on Chiyan's back, holding its neck tightly with both hands, galloping on the way to Eagle Hill.
At the northern border, the winter was very cold, and the cold wind and frost cut my cheeks and the back of my hands like a knife, carving blood marks, but I didn't feel any pain at all, just urged in Chiyan's ear: "Chiyan, hurry up, hurry up!" ”
The Battle of Eagle Hill took place two days ago, and it is said that the body of Helian Cheng has not been found so far. So I just thought that if I could get there sooner, maybe I could save him.
I don't believe it, he just died.
Even if he is killed in battle, I will see his body with my own eyes and bury him with my own hands.
Red Flame used its speed to the extreme, so it only took me half a day to reach Eagle Hill.
Eagle Hill is located in the eastern border of Beidi country, the canyon is numerous, the valley is deep and the cliff is overwhelming, the peaks and peaks lean against the sky, the terrain is dangerous, and it has always been a place where soldiers must fight.
As soon as I entered the valley, I smelled the thick smell of blood wafting through the air. On the flat ground, on the slopes, and between the canyons, there are corpses of soldiers everywhere, including Beidi people and Dongyue people. I took a cursory look at it, and it was obvious that there were more corpses of Dongyue people.
The blood stains on the ground and the disgusting smell of blood all show what a fierce bloody battle had taken place here two days ago.
But at this moment, I didn't have time to feel the cruelty of war, so I just crouched down and looked at the corpses piled up on the ground one by one, hoping to find that familiar figure in the corpse pile.
Until the end of the day, I rummaged through every corpse in Eagle Hill, but I still couldn't find the handsome man in silver-gray armor.
The fact that his body was not found should be good news for me. I sat in the pile of corpses, a little depressed, but more relieved.
Red Flame ran up to me and let out a low hisser at me. My eyes lit up and I was ecstatic, "What? You're saying you found him? ”
Red Flame's keen sense of smell, comparable to that of a blue-eyed fox, shook its head at me, and led me to the top of a towering mountain nearby.
The peak is rugged and rocky, the grass and trees are withered, and the opposite side is also a cliff, the cliff is broken, the two walls are opposite, and in the middle is a long rope bridge, connecting the two cliffs. However, the rope bridge had been broken in half in the middle, and the wooden planks and iron chains at the fracture swayed among the clouds and mist of the mountain wall, which was very desolate.
Red Flame snorted at the rope bridge.
"Did you mean he was here?" I looked at the broken rope bridge in front of me and muttered.
The chains on both sides of the rope bridge still bear the marks of being cut by swords. If Chiyan's sense of smell was correct, then He Liancheng must have fought the enemy here, but unfortunately the rope bridge broke and fell into the abyss.
I imagined him fighting the enemy here, and my heart ached.
5,000 elite cavalry against 10,000 troops, although they were outnumbered and unfortunately defeated, but I think this matter is far from so simple.
In terms of He Liancheng's military ability, 5,000 He family's elite cavalry against 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Dongyue Kingdom should be more than enough, even if it is not good, it will not be wiped out, and even he will be killed in battle.
I don't know the strength of Dongyue Kingdom, I only know that this is a small country that has only recently emerged, and it has always been at peace with the surrounding countries, why did it suddenly fight with Beidi without warning this time?
There must be something strange in this!
A waterfall hangs a hundred feet, down the cliff wall, like a pearl of scattered jade, straight to the bottom of the cliff, under the rope bridge converges into a clear stream, the clear stream murmurs, meanders through.
I followed the stream and started to look upstream, and there were many corpses of Dongyue and Beidi soldiers scattered along the way, but none of them were him.
Red Flame ran all the way forward. I followed it on my heel, skirting the rocks, and finally found the silver-gray armor I knew by the stream. Squatting down and carefully picking up the man lying on his side on the ground, wiping away the blood stains on his face, his handsome eyebrows and eyes appeared in front of me.
His eyes were closed, his thin lips were pursed, and he was unconscious. I tried to calm myself down, reaching out to reach for his neck, but my hand trembled slightly. But in the midst of such tremors, I still felt the faint beating of his neck pulse.
"He Liancheng...... You're still alive......" I hugged him tightly, tears streaming down my cheeks. The wound on my face that had been cut by the cold wind hurt a lot, but my heart had never been so happy as it was now.
But although he is still alive, he is already dying. At this moment, I hope that the kid is now noisy around me. But apparently this idea is not very realistic.
I have never studied medicine, but I have been with Bailixiao for a long time, and I have been exposed to it, and I also know some basic medical knowledge. He Liancheng's current appearance is definitely not just a simple injury, his internal force has been sealed, his qi and blood are stagnant, according to my guess, he should have been drugged.
Perhaps this is the real reason why his entire army was annihilated and he was defeated and killed.
Removing the heavy armor on his body, there were a few blood-stained marks on his moon-white coat, and the number of arrows in his body was indeed true. I applied the wound medicine I had brought with me to his wound and bandaged him briefly.
However, external injuries are easy to treat, but internal injuries are difficult to treat, and looking at the way he looks now, it is urgent to treat his injuries. Eagle Hill is thousands of miles away from Mocheng, if you go to find Qianmo and Baili Xiao to heal him, I'm afraid he won't be able to wait.
That's right, Tianshan! I had a flash of inspiration.
The Tien Shan Mountains are not far from here. He is a native of Tianshan Gate, and Ling Weiyang, the eldest disciple of the old man of Tianshan Yuxu, is known as the "Medical Immortal", and he is also his senior brother, so he will definitely do his best to save him.
"Chiyan, let's go up to the Heavenly Mountain." I hugged He Liancheng, tears still flowing down my face, but I said to Chiyan with a smile.
However, the trip to the Tianshan Mountains is not easy to say. I have just recovered from my serious injuries, and my body has not yet recovered, He Liancheng is tall, and he is unconscious, and with my current physical condition, I can't carry him at all. In desperation, I had to leave his armor here to lose some weight, and let Red Flame carry us on the road.
After all, the weight of two people was different from that of one person, and by the time Red Flame carried us to the foot of the Tianshan Mountain, we were already wheezing and tired.
I told Red Flame to pause and rest. As far as the eye can see, there is exactly the same cold pool in front of me that I fell into the water seven years ago. Looking at the unconscious man with his eyes closed in my arms, I raised my hand and stroked his pale cheeks, feeling sad in my heart.
He Liancheng, do you remember that seven years ago, here, you once saved a little girl.
But I think you've long forgotten about it. But do you know that that girl has had you in her heart ever since, and has been obsessed with you for seven years?
The Tianshan Mountains are frozen all year round, and the road up the mountain is even more difficult. I let Chiyan carry He Liancheng on his shoulder, and I used light skills to follow it closely by his side, taking care of it as I went.
As the sun went down, it grew dark. At night in the Tianshan Mountains, the snow is falling and the cold is biting. Although He Liancheng was protected by Red Flame's body temperature, he was still frozen and stiff. If he continues like this, I am afraid that before he reaches the top of the Tianshan Mountain, he will already freeze to death.
Among the snow-covered rocks is a hidden cave. I groaned for a moment, and beckoned Red Flame into the cave, intending to take shelter from the cold tonight.
The cave is flat, but equally cold, with sharp ice edges and transparent icicles everywhere. I put He Liancheng in the leeward place, and picked up some branches nearby, Chiyan was very clever, and when he saw that I had piled up the firewood, he immediately stepped forward and opened his mouth to squirt and light the firewood.
"Red Flame is so smart." I patted its head and complimented.
The fire was getting stronger and stronger, but He Liancheng's body was getting colder and colder, his pulse was getting weaker and weaker, and his whole body was stiff like ice. I was so anxious that I could only use my palm to convey my internal force to him. However, the elder's set of internal strength and mental methods seemed to be effective only for himself, but could not be transmitted to others.
I was unwilling to give up my efforts for a long time, until I was exhausted and fell to the ground, my heart swelled with qi and blood, and I spit out a few mouthfuls of dark red blood stasis. But He Liancheng was still unconscious and cold.
Red Flame screamed beside me, and I struggled to my feet, raised my hand to wipe the blood from the corner of my mouth, and patted it. "Chi Yan is good, go to the entrance of the cave and guard it, okay?"
Red Flame nodded, rubbed on me a few times, and obediently ran to the entrance of the cave. I sat on the floor, helpless, and a most ancient method flashed through my mind.
The fire flickered, and the nearby firewood crackled. I stripped myself and his shirt off and slipped into his arms, clinging to his body.
His chest was as hard as iron, but cold as ice, and the touch of skin to skin made my heart beat faster and my whole body tremble.
