Chapter 92: The Last Blade
"Where is it, take me there", the sacrifice of the Dark Blade has always been a pain in Ye Yunyi's heart, and the sixty or so Dark Blades that followed him out of Xihai City were assigned the most dangerous tasks by themselves before the start of the big war at that time.
He thought that he was very selfish, and he had always entrusted the most dangerous tasks to the Dark Blade to do, this was the case in Xihai City, and here in Qingyun City, they had always relied on him, and now that he was standing here safely, they were buried in the battlefield.
If they hadn't risked their lives to report to Qingyun City, no matter how good his strategy was, it would have been just talk on paper, and it was their sacrifice that allowed Ye Yunyi to do things everywhere on the side of the Yan army without worrying.
So when he heard that his bones had been found, it was conceivable that Ye Yunyi was excited and had unspeakable grief at the same time. And he has been busy with all kinds of things in Qingyun City recently, except for seeing the one who was caught in the city by Ye Beijiang alive, there is no news of other dark blades.
Soon, Ye Yunyi followed the cold wind to the place where the bones of the dark blades were found, and more than forty dark blades were lying quietly on the ground in front of them, some of them were still wearing the clothes of the Yan army, presumably the ones who had mixed into the Yan army before and wanted to sneak into Qingyun City to report the news through the battle, but now they were all lying cold in front of them.
What he qualified as the master of the Dark Pavilion was really a failure, his own siblings, and the brothers he had always relied on, were gone.
Ye Yunyi trembled and lifted the corners of their clothes, and there was a black complex mark printed on their shoulders, which was designed by Ye Yunyi himself, in order to sacrifice in the future, so that the brothers in the dark pavilion could find out, so that they could take their brothers' bones home.
Unexpectedly, the last spark of the dark blade had been extinguished on the battlefield of this corpse field, and the dark blade that had successfully entered Qingyun City before followed behind Ye Yunyi, helping them sort out their clothes one by one.
"Pavilion master, they are really our brothers, brothers who report the news with me", the crying voice made Ye Yunyi almost stumble to the ground, he couldn't fall, he couldn't fall, and the brothers were still waiting for him to take them home.
"Mansan, where did they find it"?
At this time, Ye Yunyi, who was already cold-hearted, put down the corner of the last dark blade corpse and said coldly.
"Military master, more than a dozen of them were found when we were cleaning the frontal battlefield, the reason why we are sure that they are dark blades is because we found that although they were wearing Yan Jun's clothes, when they died, the knives in their hands were still inserted into Yan Jun's corpse, so we felt suspicious, and later we found that they all had strange marks on their bodies, that is, the military master, you just saw."
"They are real warriors, I have been fighting for many years, and it is the first time I have seen a dark blade that has been stabbed more than a dozen times, and he is still holding a Yan Jun to die on the blade."
"The other twenty or so were found under Qingyun City on the other side, they were already very close to Qingyun City, and the arrows on their backs showed that they were not completely killed by the Yan army, but were mistakenly injured by the defenders, and it can be inferred from the scene at that time that they found Qingyun City from our previous road, but they were mistaken for Yan by the defenders of the city."
"There are also a few who have obviously been shot by the defenders, and they may have seen the attack of the Yan army halfway at that time, so they endured their injuries and continued to fight and die with the Yan army, and their knives were inserted in the corpse of the Yan army."
Man San's words of admiration were like a sharp blade stuck in his heart, war is like this, accidental injuries are inevitable, but what they thought of was that they were still fighting with Yan Jun before they died.
"Man San, do me a favor, after cremating their bones, give them to me, and I will take them to where they should go."
This is the last thing Ye Yunyi can do, bring the bones of the brothers back to the nameless grave in the dark pavilion, where there are many people like them, where is where they belong, presumably they will not be alone.
In this way, Ye Yunyi guarded the raging fire and cremated the bones of the dark blades one by one, and the torment in his heart made Ye Yunyi numb.
When the bones were loaded into the jar and loaded into the carriage, Ye Yunyi took the reins of the carriage and shouted to the sky, "Brothers, go home, the soul returns." Pulling the carriage through the gaze of the group of defenders, he headed towards Qingyun City.
When Ye Yunyi returned to Qingyun City, Xuan Ke was already waiting outside, Ye Yunyi jumped out of the carriage and handed the reins to Xuan Ke, "This is our brother's soul, help me guard it first, and when I finish solving the matter here, I will take them back."
Xuan Ke used to be one of the secret envoys of the Dark Blades of the Dark Pavilion, so these Dark Blades can be said to have been brought out by him himself, and now there are only silent names left.
Xuan Ke was sad as a result, and Ye Yunyi nodded solemnly at the reins in his hand.
"Now we are the only ones who have grown up together, Xuan Ke", Ye Yunyi's empty voice sounded, and everyone around him could feel the sadness in his heart that was difficult to hide.
"Pavilion Master, can you hand them over to me", Qing Ming, who had never spoken, said. Qing Ming is the only dark blade that survived the successful report before.
Ye Yunyi inspected Qing Ming's eyes, Qing Ming, who had always respected him before, looked at his eyes stubbornly at this time, so Ye Yunyi took a look, took the reins back from Xuan Ke's hand, and handed them to Qing Ming's hands.
"Watch them well, soon, soon, I'll take them back".
Without looking back, he left this place, and found a clean place on the city wall, and sat down against the wall.
It was Xuan Ke who followed, Ye Yunyi signaled, Xuan Ke sat next to him, and neither of them spoke.
"Do you want to know why I didn't hand over the souls of my brothers to you just now", or Ye Yunyi broke this peace.
"No," Xuan Ke replied briefly.
"Forget it, how long have you been with me, I don't know what you think, it's just that I have a reason to do it".
"After this battle, my father may not be able to stay in Qingyun City, so someone needs to take his place", speaking of this, Ye Yunyi turned his head to look at Xuan Ke, who was silent and silent.
"And you are the best candidate, when I go back, I will discuss with Taishi Qu, such an important place as Qingyun City can only be in our own hands."
"The current Chu State, there must be a big storm before it can be reborn, and Qingyun City is the guarantee, if there is no Qingyun City, or Qingyun City is in the hands of us who do not trust, then the previous scene of Qingyun City being helpless on all sides may appear again."
"Originally, I also planned to let you go back with me, because there is no one in the Dark Pavilion anymore, but I know that Qingyun City is more suitable for you, you can't fool me, your military talent is not inferior to the famous generals in the world, so don't bury your ability."
Ye Yunyi patted him on the shoulder, then stood up, looked at the busy Qingyun City and the quiet Ji Nanzhou, pointed in the direction of Yan Guo and said: "In the future, I will wave my army to kill him, whether it is with me, or in this Chu State, this world, this is what I must do next."
"When the time comes, I want to see your bravery and skillful fighting."
"I give the souls of my brothers to Qingming, it is better to give them to you, his eyes tell me that his relationship with his brothers is as deep as ours, I am relieved to hand it over to him."
"While I'm still in these days, you hold on tightly, and when we have left, Qingyun City will really have to rely on you."
No one knew about the conversation between the two, and then Ye Yunyi looked for Man Shan halfway, and then Man Shan took the remaining 20,000 iron soldiers to put on the defender clothes of Qingyun City, from the previous defender to the defender, every time the iron army that has always disappeared appears, it is a bloody storm, and this time is the same.
It's just that what Ye Yunyi needs more at present is the stability of Qingyun City.
After these years of adjustment, Ye Beijiang has also improved a lot, and he can already get out of bed and move, but this time the injury has caused many old injuries from before, and there will still be some faint pain.
In the days that followed, in addition to helping Xuan Ke stabilize Qingyun City every day, Ye Yunyi also helped Ye Beijiang to go around Qingyun City. And sometimes when they meet the people of Qingyun City, they will come forward to care, or stand in the distance to greet, it can be seen that over the years, Qingyun City under the governance of Ye Beijiang is really peaceful, except for the war outside.
