Chapter 157: The Immortal Star
Under the cover of wind and smoke, the Tiance army went all the way east and retreated behind a Qingping Mountain.
That mountain and the opposite mountain, Bowang Mountain, formed a horn momentum, like a door, blocking the hundreds of thousands of demon armies behind the door.
Ye Yu saw Wei Xiao fleeing, he was unwilling, and wanted to pursue persistently, but was stopped by Yechen.
"The gap between these two mountains is narrow, the army is sad, afraid of being ambushed, besides, my demon army has been marching rapidly for a day and night, and it is already exhausted, so Wei Xiao can take the opportunity to escape. Ye Chen sat on horseback, his eyes flashed with red light, and said lightly: "Our army only has to be stationed at this ferry, Wei Xiao can't cross south, it's also a dead end!"
He looked back at Kuang Feiyu behind him, and said quietly: "Wei Xiao escaped from my hands again, princess, your hanging heart can finally be put down!"
Kuang Feiyu was furious: "Wei Xiao's death or not, what does it have to do with me?" Yechen, you are also arrogant, and you are becoming more and more bold, saying such arrogant words!"
"Yes!" A little light flashed in Yechen's demon pupils, and he lowered his head: "Yechen is a martial artist, his words are inappropriate, the princess forgives her sins!"
Kuang Feiyu breathed a sigh of relief: "In my opinion, Wei Xiao and you are chess opponents, and Kuang Gu will face off," the look in her eyes sank slightly: "Since ancient times, when the two powerhouses meet, there will be an injury, heaven and earth have never allowed two masters to stand side by side in the world, Yechen, I will order you to capture Wei Xiao within ten days, if you can't do it, military law will deal with it!"
"Yes. Yechen remained silent and bowed his hand slightly.
The demon army was stationed on the spot at the Tanyin Ferry, and the whole army was reorganized.
Yechen stood alone on the bank of the ferry, stepping on the stone bank under his feet, looking up at the windy and windy lights on the flagpole of the ferry, as if he was thinking.
"General Yechen!" Ye Yu followed from behind, stood a step away from Yechen, and bowed: "It's been a day and a night, why hasn't the general returned to the camp to rest?"
Yechen took his hand and said, "Ye Yu, have you seen the lantern on the flagpole?"
"Lanterns?" Ye Yu looked up blankly, looking at the string of lanterns swaying in the north wind, not understanding why his boss suddenly mentioned this.
"I am the lantern in the storm!" Ye Chen's deep voice suddenly burst out of this sentence: "The lord's heart is like the wind, and he will off one day, even if I am the one who illuminates this dark night road for them." ”
"General Yechen?" Ye Yu had always admired this invincible general who was decisive in killing and had the blood of 10,000 people on his hands, but at this time, there was a faint sense of gloom in his tone.
"The princess's ten-day restriction is clearly intended to kill Ye Chen!" Ye Chen sighed, the blue and red light in his eyes disappeared, and he turned around and walked towards the tent, leaving only one sentence and throwing it to Ye Yu behind him: "In troubled times, you and I are just lamps in the wind, which may be extinguished at any time." ”
At night, inside the camp of the commander of the Tiance Army.
The generals and Wei Xiao have finished discussing and retreating one after another.
The Phantom Clan soldiers, who had fought bravely for a day, also rested in their tents, and many of them fell into a deep sleep as soon as their heads touched the table.
Wei Xiao spread out the sheepskin map of Wudinghe on the desk, looked at it carefully under the lamp, and pondered.
Suddenly, there was a pain in his chest, and he couldn't help but touch the corners of his lips with his hand, and coughed lowly.
"The arrow wound is not healed yet!" Bai Qianyu walked over with a bowl of boiled decoction, put it on the table in front of Wei Xiao, and deliberately suppressed the map: "You are just too hardworking, the arrow wound is difficult to heal, in this cold winter land, where can I find any herbs, fortunately, I picked it in Xun Wuling last time, and there is still a little left, and it was burned in its meson space." ”
Wei Xiao took his eyes off the parchment map, looked up and saw Bai Qianyu, the light in his eyes flowing: "Qianyu, I'm fine, it's just that this time it's really hard for you!"
His face was full of apologies: "Let you follow me in the army, pretend to be a soldier and escape, even I am not protected in the chaos of the army, if you have any mistakes, I really ...... How can you be at peace with your heart?"
As he spoke, there was another low cough.
Bai Qianyu hurriedly raised his hand to stop him: "You are not allowed to say this! I am willing to be born and die, and from now on, I will never complain when I walk through thousands of rivers and mountains." ”
"Shallow ......" Wei Xiao's eyes were full of gratitude, but he couldn't speak for a while.
Bai Qianyu hurriedly picked up the medicine bowl and held it in front of him: "No need to say it, I understand what you want to say." She scooped a small spoonful with a spoon, tasted it herself, and then sent it to Wei Xiao, frowning slightly: "Drink it while it's hot, the effect is better, it's just that this decoction is a little bitter......"
Wei Xiao obediently took the medicine bowl, drank the bitter soup in one go, and then raised his head: "With you, no matter how bitter this bowl of soup is, I feel sweet," There was a crystal flash in his eyes: "Qianyu, thank you!"
"Thank me for what?" Bai Qianyu pursed her lips and smiled, she held a white silk handkerchief embroidered with a plum blossom in her hand, and gently wiped the medicinal juice at the corner of Wei Xiao's mouth, with a gentle face under the lamp: "Fry this bowl of soup medicine?"
"No," Wei Xiao shook her head and held her hand, "Thank you for this long journey, you are willing to walk with me." ”
His hand covered her hand warmly, Bai Qianyu lowered his head, only to feel that something in his heart was warmly melting.
She couldn't help but be taken aback when she saw the blood oozing from his iron armor: "Why is there so much blood?"
Wei Xiao shook his head: "In today's battle, the wound opened again," a trace of confusion appeared on his face: "I don't know why, my repair technique is becoming more and more ineffective now, and sometimes when I use it, I find that a trace of spiritual power is as faint as a gossamer." ”
"This ......" Bai Qianyu looked at him with some concern.
"It's okay, it's good if I was a mortal," Wei Xiao smiled, and the corners of his lips curled into a beautiful arc: "I will also be injured, I will bleed, and the wound will heal slowly, a mortal like you, isn't it good?"
"Wei Xiao......" Bai Qianyu only felt a pain in his heart, but he was inexplicably moved, and came from all over the world: "But that's different, you will be born and die at any time, walking on the blade, if you don't have the protection of repair, how can you ......?"
"To be born to be a general, you must have the consciousness to see through life and death. Wei Xiao said lightly, but took Bai Qianyu's hand and put it on his chest: "But I promise, for you, I will cherish my life!"
"If you cherish your own life, you won't use this 'serial bitter meat trick' of nine deaths!" Bai Qianyu looked at him with some disgust, but he couldn't bear to blame: "In the Nanwang forest, you deliberately let yourself be hit by an arrow to lure Ye Yu into the forest to chase you, and at the Tanyin Ferry, you deliberately let them see that your arrow wound was serious, and they could only flee with a horse, do you know that this bitter meat trick will kill you at any time if you are not careful!"
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger!" Wei Xiao sighed: "My mistake is false when the arrow is false, it is true to lure Ye Yu into the forest, it is false to occupy it first and then abandon Tanyindu, it is true to retreat to Qingping Mountain, to less to more, to weak and weak enemies, I only have true and false, false and real, avoid the real and hit the false, and the sound of the east and the west." All I can use is the arrogance of Commander Yechen - only when he knows that I am seriously injured and unable to play, will he think that I will be trapped in Qingping Mountain, while my home team has unwittingly marched three hundred miles east and forced to cross the Wuding River! ”
"What?" Bai Qianyu's eyes widened: "You want to lead the main force to cross the Wuding River?"
"Exactly. Wei Xiao said categorically: "An army of 60,000 will face an army of 800,000, with less against more, with weak against strong, only by avoiding the real and attacking the weak, can we capture the fighter plane and win!"
"Then ......" Bai Qianyu looked at him: "Are you sure you can win?"
Wei Xiao shook his head.
"Qianyu, I'm still the same sentence, so far, I don't even have a little certainty. ”
"Then ......" Bai Qianyu thought for a while and said, "I know there is someone who may be able to help you." ”
Wei Xiao was puzzled: "The demon army is pressing the realm, and the elite of the Phantom Spirit Country is exhausted, here and now, who else can stop the demon army?"
"There is a person," Bai Qianyu's dark eyes flashed brightly, as if he was injected with strength: "This person is not in the government of the Phantom Country, does not listen to the rebuke of the lord of the country and the high priest, stands on his own in Chaisang, has 100,000 troops, and sits in the southeast, but he is the immortal general of the Phantom Spirit Country, and the Phantom Clan Warlord Dugu Xin, who stands side by side with the demon generals Yechen and Dayue Murong Chui!"
"Dugu Xin......" Wei Xiao read the name: "It's just that such a person must be undisciplined, proud and lonely, even the mainstream dream shadow of the Phantom Country and the high priest Phantom Ruochen may not be able to invite him, how can you ...... it?"
"I have my own way. Bai Qianyu said firmly, looking at Wei Xiao with a puzzled look: "Have you forgotten how I let Murong Trai successfully withdraw from the army?"
"But......" Wei Xiao opened his mouth and was about to speak, but Bai Qianyu had already stood up from the desk, turned around, white light flashed, and a handsome boy appeared in front of Wei Xiao.
Although Wei Xiao was worried, he couldn't help but show appreciation in his eyes: "It's a beautiful young man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but he is too weak,—— you look like you can't open a bow and can't carry the tripod with your strength, and you still expect to go to Chaisang alone on the war-torn and warrior-ridden Phantom Continent? I think I'll send an army of 5,000 people to escort you!"
"If there are too many people, it will attract people's attention," Bai Qianyu stretched out two white fingers: "To go to Chaisang, I only need two people to accompany me." ”
"Which two?" Wei Xiao asked.
"One, it's naturally a clover," Bai Qianyu said: "The other is your general Xu Yanda," she paused and explained: "When Dugu Xin was a teenager, he served as a general of the chariot and cavalry, the governor of the capital, and the history of Yunzhong Jiedu in the fantasy country, suppressed Wei Kegu's rebellion, pacified Sanxiang, and made outstanding achievements. ”
Wei Xiao understood: "It turns out that you want to impress Dugu Xin with the intention of the old man," he muttered: "That's fine, Yanqing is brave, with him, you can be safe in the Phantom Kingdom along the way, the Yechen army is all concentrated here at the moment, and the three of you should not be intercepted by the demon army." ”
He paused and asked, "But what kind of person is this Duguxin general?"
Bai Qianyu said: "According to the history book of the Phantom Country "Bamboo Book in the Clouds", it is said that he was originally born in the chief's house of a small tribe of the Phantom Clan, the nickname Dugu is as he wishes, his father Dugu Ku is brave and heroic, and the local people all respect him, and his mother Fei Lian is also a nobleman. 'Side hat merry Dugu Xin', that is, he rode a horse outside the city to hunt one day, and when he came home, he hunted in the evening wind, blew his hat crooked, led Huang Qingcang, and was angry with his horse in fresh clothes, and was seen by the soldiers guarding the city, and the next day, the men in the city were wearing hats crookedly. ”
The phantom spirit country is located in the south of the starfall continent, the rivers and rivers are dotted all over the world, the water vapor does not disperse all year round, and it becomes a fog, making the land such as in the clouds, so the phantom spirit country is also called cloud China in the ancient book, and the name of the history of the phantom country is "Bamboo Book in the Clouds".
