Chapter 144: Cutting the Horse

Bai Qianyu and Shamrock found the Nine Rings left in the grass in the twilight, and hurried back to the city.

When he returned to the city, the sky was already dark, and Bai Qianyu saw a little light in the mansion from afar, knowing that someone was waiting for the lamp, and his heart couldn't help but warm.

She quickened her pace, rushed to the front of the mansion, and was about to go in, but suddenly remembered something, brushed her messy hair with her fingers, and used the Nine Rings to change into clean clothes, and then walked in with her feet.

The hall was quiet, and Wei Xiao sat alone at the table, supporting her forehead with her hands, as if she was asleep.

Bai Qianyu and Shamrock walked over lightly, only to see a bronze finch lamp lit on the table, and three bowls were placed, with corn porridge in the bowls, and dried meat and bean cakes in the plates, which had been cooled.

Bai Qianyu was moved in her heart, knowing that Wei Xiao was waiting for them to have dinner, she looked at Wei Xiao who was asleep, Wei Xiao's side face was reflected in the lamp, her face was still handsome, but she was thinner, and her face was full of exhaustion and haggardness.

Bai Qianyu knew that he had been working hard all day after day, sleepless, and even occasionally slept for a few hours, he couldn't untie his clothes, and he was alarmed when something happened, and he fell asleep unconsciously while waiting for them at this time.

Looking at Wei Xiao who was sleeping, his snort was even, but his brows were still wrinkled, Bai Qianyu couldn't help but feel sorry, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand, wanting to smooth his frowning brows for him.

Her hand had just been raised, and she was about to touch the tip of his eyebrows, but Wei Xiao suddenly woke up, her eyes opened suddenly, and Bai Qianyu hurriedly withdrew her fingers, her face flushed.

Wei Xiao saw that it was her, and a look of joy appeared in her eyes: "Qianyu, are you back?"

"Well," Bai Qianyu nodded, and untied the small bamboo basket full of herbs on his back to show him: "Look, return with a full load." ”

Wei Xiao glanced at it and was very pleased: "Now, the wounded soldiers in the city have been saved!" He looked at Bai Qianyu, his face full of concern: "Is this trip going well?"

"It's going well, with the help of burning, I found all the herbs I wanted!" Bai Qianyu hurriedly said.

Wei Xiao glanced at her, was silent, suddenly stretched out his finger and plucked a piece of dry grass from between her hair: "Your hair is covered with grass and dust, and your clothes have been changed by you in disguise," he paused, and his voice was slow: "If you don't fall to the ground, your hair won't be stained with grass and dust, and if it weren't for your rags, you won't disguise, Qianyu, tell me, did you encounter something outside?"

"Yes, yes," the anxious Clover hurriedly said, "We have encountered a big event, and we almost can't come back!"

Bai Qianyu hinted with his eyes to shut up, and hurriedly said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that we accidentally picked up a ghost post outside, and in order to pick it, I fell and my clothes were torn." She said a few words lightly, not wanting to worry Wei Xiao.

"Oh, is it?" Wei Xiao's eyes flashed, and he didn't know if he believed it.

Shamrock hurriedly took the ghost post out of his mustard seed space, and half of the ghost post appeared in front of them, like the shaft of an arrow, and the whole body glowed with a red dark light.

"Sure enough, it's the legendary Demon Grass Ghost Inspector of the Underworld!" Wei Xiao glanced at it and said: "This kind of grass is extremely poisonous, and it will kill people, fortunately you go together, otherwise, Qianyu will be in danger!"

Bai Qianyu recalled the situation when the two demon soldiers were poisoned by the ghost governor, and couldn't help but shudder.

"However, it is really a great blessing to have picked up the ghost post!" Wei Xiao said: "I have been worried for the past two days, and the battle is unscrupulous, if you see that the flying fire attack city cannot be attacked for a long time, I am afraid that I will use poison to attack, and in the poison attack, the most powerful and easiest is to use corpse poison to attack the city, I don't want you to accidentally pick up the ghost post, although this poisonous weed is highly poisonous, but it is the nemesis of corpse poison, then I am not afraid!"

As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of snoring and drinking in his ears, Wei Xiao turned his eyes and saw that it was Clover who was holding a porridge bowl, and his mouth was on the edge of the bowl to drink porridge, and he couldn't help laughing: "You glutton, as a fairy grass, you don't need to eat, who knows that you can eat faster than us!"

Clover paused for a moment holding the porridge bowl: "But I'm so hungry! I don't know why, with you, I want to eat more and more!" Then he buried his head in the porridge bowl and ate it with relish.

Wei Xiao shook her head with a smile and looked at Bai Qianyu: "Qianyu, are you hungry too?" ”

Bai Qianyu picked up a porridge bowl in front of her, Wei Xiao grabbed the dried bean cake on the plate again, broke two pieces and put them in her bowl: "It's a little more delicious." ”

Bai Qianyu and Clover went out for a day, and they felt hungry in their stomachs, so they finished eating the porridge and cakes in one go, and when they finished eating, they raised their heads, but saw Wei Xiao looking at her without blinking.

Her face flushed: "What do you think I do?"

"I just like to watch you eat," Wei Xiao looked at her, her eyes flashed like stars: "I don't know why, when I watch you eat, I feel very warm and down-to-earth, this feeling has never been felt in my life." ”

Bai Qianyu's face turned even redder, and he silently put down the dishes and chopsticks.

She felt nothing but guilt.

- As the protagonist of her online article, she gave Wei Xiao an extremely unfortunate fate setting, God knows how many ups and downs he will experience in this life, wandering through the Three Realms, but she never knew that what he wanted in his heart might just be the warmth of fireworks that the Heavenly Martial God would never have in this life.

At that moment, her heart was turbulent, and she didn't know how many thoughts had turned, but she just sat there silently.

Wei Xiao doesn't know anything, maybe one day, shouldn't he tell him?

Or never say that when she accompanies him to find cinnabar and promote their destiny marriage, it's time for her, the author, to leave......

Wei Xiao took a white handkerchief and wiped it on the corner of her mouth, helping her wipe the porridge juice from the corner of her mouth.

Bai Qianyu lowered his head, glanced at the porridge bowl in front of Wei Xiao that had not moved, and said, "Why don't you eat it yet?"

"I ...... There is no appetite," Wei Xiao pressed his palm on the table: "The porridge sent to the general's mansion is so thin, I'm afraid that the soldiers' porridge is already as clear as water," he frowned: "The food in the city, I'm afraid it's not enough!"

Both fell silent.

Only the candle flame flickered.

At present, the matter of the wounded medicine can be alleviated for the time being, but the lack of food has become an imminent big problem.

On the second day, Bai Qianyu got up early in the morning and fried the herbs he picked into a medicinal juice and distributed them to the soldiers in the wounded soldiers' room, those herbs are just like Clover said, the more poisonous the place, the higher the spiritual power of the herbs, the more effective the medicine, the wounded soldiers drank the medicinal juice, and the speed of healing was much faster than usual.

There was a rare smile in the wounded soldier's room, and the soldiers all laughed and said that Bai Qianyu was a fairy sent by God to help them relieve their illness, and the fever of the high general also subsided, lying on the hospital bed, looking at Bai Qianyu quietly, his eyes followed her busy figure, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pout a smile.

On this day, Wei Xiao climbed the head of Zitong Pass, and saw that Yingyi began to attack the city with corpse poison, he ordered people to put the corpses of the soldiers of both sides who died outside the city into the tiger squat cannon, and launched them into the city by firing stone fire bombs, and at the same time continued to attack the city with flying fire, burning down countless houses and buildings in the city, fortunately, the soldiers in the city were on guard, and avoided the trench fortifications, and the casualties were greatly reduced.

And because of the extremely domineering anti-corpse poison ability of the ghost inspector post, Bai Qianyu only asked the half of the ghost inspector post to be put into an iron pot, boiled a pot of thick medicinal juice as red as blood, and dripped one or even half a drop on the corpse, and those corpses were embalmed, never rotting again, let alone flowing out of corpse poison.

It's just that a newly recruited soldier accidentally touched a drop while boiling the medicinal juice, and immediately the blood veins in his hands boiled as if they were boiled by boiling water, and he exploded and died in an instant.

The poisonous blood in his body was emitted like fireworks, and then splashed on the seven or eight soldiers who were not too far away, and those seven or eight soldiers exploded into bloody people in an instant.

All the people who saw that scene trembled with fright, and from then on they talked about the ghost superintendent.

After the corpse poison siege was ineffective, Yingyi only stopped for half a day, and then adopted the advice of the military advisor Gong Wei, and attacked the city no less than ten times a day, forcing the defenders to be tired of coping, on the other hand, it was an unrelenting siege, just waiting for the food in the city to run out, and then the defending army could be trapped.

After a few days, there was a shortage of food in the city.

In fact, since the day Bai Qianyu picked up the herbs from Xun Wuling, Wei Xiao had already discovered that the food in the city was running out - even as the main general, there were only some bean cakes and gruel on the table, and a pitiful amount of cured meat, so those soldiers were afraid that they were already half hungry and half full, and they would not have enough to eat.

If the soldiers defending the city can't even eat, how can they have the strength to fight?

Wei Xiao ordered the war horses in the city to be killed, and those war horses were born and died with the soldiers who rode them, and everyone treated them like friends and partners, and then not only was the military food in the city insufficient, but even the grain and grass for the horses were almost gone, and the war horses were so hungry that they were skinny, and when the kitchen sprinkled the horse meat with a little salt and roasted it, every soldier almost shed tears while eating.

On this day, Wei Xiao walked to the stable, looked at the empty stable, except for the war horses of several generals, the other horses had almost been killed, he stood in front of his tall snow-white war horse Zhaoye Lion Horse, holding the reins of the horse with one hand, looking at it.

Although the lion horse is also hungry, the horse's ears are still high, and he is still wearing long white hair, and he still shows his spirit, and the white horse seems to be psychic, knowing that many of its companions have been killed, and when he looks at Wei Xiao, the big horse's eyes moisten.

Wei Xiao looked at this war horse that had twice fought with him with the "Tongguan Iron Cavalry" into Murong Chui's army and killed 20,000 enemy troops, and hesitated in his heart.

The soldier's horse is cut down, if one day, it will be his turn to shine on the night lion horse, he doesn't know if he is ruthless?

The white horse neighed lowly, hung down the horse's head, knocked on the ground with four hooves uneasily, rubbed lightly next to Wei Xiao's face, one person and one horse, and his eyes were moist.

After a long time, Wei Xiaofang put down the reins of the horse and walked out of the stable ruthlessly.

The deputy general greeted him, and Wei Xiao handed him the whip in his hand: "If you want to kill the night lion horse one day, use my whip," he gritted his teeth: "This white horse is psychic, if someone else wants to kill it, it will definitely resist fiercely." ”

The deputy general took the whip, and as soon as he raised his head, Wei Xiao had already strode out.
