Chapter II

The evening glow reflected through the cracks in the valley to the high wall below, behind which were sparsely located houses, scattered lights flickering like fireflies in the valley, and in a corner of the high wall, a handsome man with a golden sunline on his forehead walked back and forth outside the house, with a look on his face sometimes happy and sometimes anxious. Moments later, with mixed feelings, a woman and child opened the door to the house... Then, with continuous crying, the woman and child said excitedly.

"Born, born, it's a chick, congratulations to Yucheng, congratulations." The woman and child's name is Li Su, the only midwife in this valley, and more than half of the young people living here will call Li Ma or Aunt Su very respectfully.

"Great, great!" The man's hands danced happily, the man's name was Song Yucheng, he was the commander of the city within the high walls of this valley, and after some excitement, he held Li Su's hand and said: "Thank you, Aunt Su, my inner family is fine..."

"It's okay, it's okay, mother and son are safe. Hahaha, let's go in and have a look. ”

"Huh!" After saying that, Song Yucheng rushed into the door and rushed into the house.

"Aqing... It's okay," Song Yucheng held his wife, who was a little weak, and cared.

"It's okay..."Song Yucheng replied to Ah Qing, her face was so weak that she was covered with sweat, but her expression was still slightly happy.

"Kid! How is the child?" said Song Yucheng eagerly.

"Look at you, how can you look like a father, the child is here, don't make noise... Hush. A-Qing gently held the child in her arms, and showed her husband the crystallization of each other's love with a happy face.

At this moment, all the man's perseverance turned into a clear stream, and Kong Wu's powerful hands were softer than silk at this time, gently caressing the child's cheeks. Maybe it was a little itchy, the child instinctively waved his hand, and chirped twice in his small mouth, which was more immature than a cherry, and this scene instantly melted the father. The moment the happiness came to my heart, my body danced uncontrollably. This move is also amused by Aqing.

"Look at you like that, what a shame." At this time, the two in the room looked at each other and smiled, Aqing gently handed the child to Song Yucheng, Song Yucheng also held the child in his arms very gently, and the two felt the arrival of this little guy in such a happy atmosphere.

"Welcome to Dawn Valley, beyond... Please advise the little ones. ”

At the same time, there are things happening to the child that his parents don't know -

"Poor man, try to live your best life in the new world......"

The voice echoed in the child's mind, but he didn't know what it was talking to him, as if in a dream, when his body was accompanied by a gentle swaying and calling, and the unknown child struggled to open his eyes, and what caught his eyes was a talented and beautiful couple.

"Let's call this little guy Jingran from now on...", the man in front of him said.

"Jing Ran......" said the woman in front of her

"Song Jingran, I hope that one day our children can step out of the high wall and stand in the real world."

The man explained, and the woman on the side looked at the man with a smile on her face, her eyes flashed with hope that she couldn't reach, and she lowered her head slightly to look at the child in her arms and said:

"I wish you could do what your father said, step out of the walls and welcome a new world, Jingran."

"Well, the light of the morning will guide him." As soon as the words fell, the man gave up his serious look, grimaced and teased the child.

"You, really, what should you do if you scare Jing Ran."

"It's okay, you see he didn't cry...... Hm. Before he finished speaking, the child in his arms cried out, but it was not scared by the man.

Just now, at the same time as the husband and wife spoke, Song Jingran looked at the two people who claimed to be their parents in front of him through immature eyes, and couldn't help but think of himself in his previous life, the scene in front of him was like a dream, he had never even seen his biological parents in his previous life, and even at the end of his life, he didn't know the names of his biological parents, and the two people in front of him shouted "Jing Ran" with love on their faces, this name is so familiar and unfamiliar, and his fleshy little hands grabbed the fingers of the two people in front of him, babbling and shouting, he remembered his grandmother again, I thought of the gentle Uncle Mingyu who held his hand tightly when he finally parted. Thinking about how unfortunate I am and how lucky I am to be in this world. The heart with mixed feelings instantly turned into tears from the corners of his eyes, and he cried out with the babbling sound in his mouth.

In this world, he can still live in the name of Song Jingran, maybe this is the greatest favor of God.

"Well, Jingran, mom is here."

"Daddy is too."

"You walked away, you were scared." With disgust on her face, Ah Qing pushed Song Yucheng's sturdy body to the side.

"Hey, hey..." Song Yucheng also stood aside stupidly, scratching his head slightly embarrassed.

After a while, Song Jingran, who calmed down in her heart, stopped crying, smiled at Song Yucheng and his wife, and seemed to say to them:

"Hello Mom and Dad."

"Look, Jing Ran is not crying." Seeing that Song Jingran was no longer crying, Song Yucheng said happily.

"Jing Ran!" Ah Qing was also pleasantly surprised why the child suddenly stopped crying.

"Jing Ran, I'm my father." Song Yucheng stepped forward again to tease Song Jingran, who was in Ah Qing's arms.

"Don't scare the child into crying again. It's really ......."

For a long time after that, the family of three lived a warm life, and the occasional small accident also became the appropriate embellishment of these days, and five years passed...... Song Jingran also gradually buried the memories of his previous life in his heart, and being able to be born in such a warm family in this life made Song Jingran particularly moved and cherished, and usually showed the mind and performance of his peers. Although he is not mature and stable, he is now more sensible than other children.

The great performance of Song Jingran's mental talent is inseparable from the tragic fate of his previous life, this may be the awakening before saying goodbye in the previous life, now Song Jingran is five years old, Song Yucheng also sees that this child is not simple, so he will also exercise his mind and body intentionally or unintentionally, and people in Dawn Valley often see the scene of the sensible Song Jingran following Song Yucheng to study together. But sometimes Song Yucheng in order not to let his children lack an innocent childhood, he will also take the time to bully the gophers who come to steal food with Song Jingran, play the storyline of Dragon Quest together, and run to the river together to watch the old people fishing......

Sometimes Song Jingran's excess energy also bothers Ah Qing and the mothers of the other children, because they are no match for this group of energetic children, and they will disappear in front of them in a short time. Every time Song Jingran went out to play with his friends, he was already covered in mud when he came back. Every time, Ah Qing had to change the dirty clothes that Song Jingran brought back while preaching. But facing his cute face, Ah Qing couldn't get angry every time. He was completely cured by this child. So every time, I think: "If you don't obey next time, your mother will beat Jing Ran's ass." At the end of this sentence, Song Jingran sometimes said before Ah Qing said this sentence: "The next time I don't obey, my mother will beat Jingran's ass." Ah Qing occasionally felt ashamed and helpless for Song Jingran's behavior. Song Jingran seemed to grasp Aqing's psychology, and always showed a cute smile on the side of her head at this time. Used to avoid being scolded. But it really works. In this life, he only now really has the courage to show his immature side in front of his family.

It wasn't until the night that Song Yucheng returned to this warm room after a busy day, as the guard of Dawn Valley, the supreme commander within the high walls, Song Yucheng needed to be responsible for more than this warm family of three, he needed to face the livelihood of more than 1,400 households in Dawn Valley totaling about 7,000 people, and this did not include the army and refugee camps in Dawn Valley, so every time he entered the door and threw away a body of dust, his face was always tired. But even so, every time he entered the house, he would pick up Song Jingran high. Let him not lack that fatherly love like a mountain Jingting.

"Did you listen to your mother at home?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's a little disobedient. ”

Song Jingran's face was bitter, his eyebrows drooped slightly, and he didn't dare to look directly at Song Yucheng. Song Yucheng didn't scold when he saw this, he held up Song Jingran with his hand and held him in his arms, and the index finger of the other hand gently pulled the bridge of Song Jingran's small nose and said dotingly:

"Oh? Did you make your mother angry again? ”

"No... I'm not going to make my mom angry. ”

Song Jingran pouted and said, her eyes slowly gathering towards Ah Qing's body. As a mother, Ah Qing also smiled and said, "Jing Ran won't make me angry. ”

"Haha... Just don't mess with your mother. ”

Soon it was the dead of night, and the family of three was ready to fall asleep...... "Dad, I want to hear the story." ”

"Okay, what does Jing Ran want to know?"

"I don't know, I'll listen to whatever you say."

"Let's talk about our world......"

"...... our world?"

"Hmmm......"

Song Yucheng took a deep breath and looked out the window slightly, and then spoke, and then continued-

"Our world is in a corner of the depths of the universe, which is called the Blue and White Star in the mouths of those scholars, and the world in the Blue and White Star is divided into seven continents by the flood, and the species living in this world are not in harmony with each other, they will quarrel over land and a thing called money, and finally make a big move, so there will be years of war and killing on every continent. The smoke of gunfire filled the whole world, and many innocent lives lost their lives and homes, until one night, the heavenly punishment from the gods suddenly came to the world. The Divine Punishment has brought with it a huge and ugly evil spirit, and all species in the world are doomed, and we, the human race! At that moment, it became unprecedented unity, and our ancestors built high walls to imprison us in order to survive the punishment of heaven. That's what saved us......"

"Dad's story isn't good at all..." Song Jingran didn't like this kind of story full of war, and pretended to be afraid and trembled to interrupt Song Yucheng.

"Jing Ran... The outskirts of Dawn Valley are such worlds. ”

"Daddy......"

"Okay, let's change the story, Dad...... Once upon a time there was a mountain, and there was a temple in the mountain, and there was an old monk and a young monk in the temple, and the old monk said to the little monk......"

"Daddy...... I've heard this story for a long time......"

"Oh? Daddy seems to be telling you this for the first time......"

"Ah......?" Song Jingran was also speechless for a while, mixed with unknown memories, and panicked for a while, and immediately changed his words:

"Hahahaha...... Then Dad, you can change another one......"

"You two don't sleep yet?"

Ah Qing heard the sound and entered the door, and she was also full of exhaustion after cleaning up the housework left outside the house.

"Then I'll tell you again tomorrow night, listen to your mother, we go to sleep."

"Well..."

After that, the family slowly fell asleep in the silence of the night.

Early in the morning of the second day, Song Yucheng went out early, in a hurry, and after a while, he stood on the high wall with a group of soldiers.

"General, there is a situation east of Dawn Valley." A white-haired man said, looking about his early 20s, with a pair of blue eyes set on his white face like jewels. This person is Song Yucheng's adjutant and Zhang Lin, who is also one of the strategic deployment commanders of Dawn Valley.

"Have you sent someone to see it?" Song Yucheng's face revealed a sense of crisis.

"Not yet. It came more suddenly. ”

"And what's going on with the scavengers now?"

"At the moment, only Anlu's team is on standby."

"Anru?"

"Yes, the eldest son of An Guiping's predecessors."

"An Guiping, ......" Song Yucheng looked thoughtful.

"How effective is their squad?"

"There are a total of seven people in the team, and if the team works together, it is enough to easily fight against a medium and large alien beast."

"Okay, not bad!"

"But... They have no actual combat experience, and the combat evaluation is the result of the intensity test of the usual training..."Zhang Lin added with some concern.

"It's okay, sooner or later."

"Yes......"

"Let Anlu report to the command hall, I'll go over later, and give me the telescope by the way." Song Yucheng showed a hesitant look again.

Zhang Lin handed the telescope to Song Yucheng, then turned around to find An Lu after listening to the order, and pointed to the direction of the distant mountains to the east of the valley before leaving, indicating that Song Yucheng had an abnormal situation.

Song Yucheng took the telescope, raised his eyes and looked around for a while before picking up the telescope to carefully check the situation in the distance. The expression changed again, the worry was written all over the face, and it was easy to see that a disaster could strike at any moment.

"This time... I'm afraid of Dawn Valley..."Song Yucheng sighed. His expression became a little depressed. Then Song Yucheng strode to the command hall, and as soon as he lifted the command hall account, he saw a bloody young man wearing half-body armor and carrying a steel sword on his back, with a fierce and powerful expression. The boy was about 1.7 meters tall, and he looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, with brown hair and golden eyes. The two looked at each other, but because of Song Yucheng's own aura, the young man quickly looked away.

"General, this is ......" Before the words fell, Song Yucheng raised his hand and waved to interrupt Zhang Lin's words.

"I know, I know it's An Guiping's species." Song Yucheng deliberately showed a trace of disdain on his face.

"Hehe, General, do you know my father?" The young man bowed and gestured to Song Yucheng.

"Your father and I were both forbidden army instructors in the Far Capital City in the early years. If you want to talk about seniority, it's not too much for you to call me uncle. Song Yucheng replied, his eyes kept looking at the man in front of him.

"How dare I, the general doesn't have to laugh." The boy was polite and courteous.

"Okay, let's not talk about it for now, do you know the reason for keeping you on standby?"

"I don't know......" At this point, An Lu also showed a nervous expression.

"Adjutant Zhang, tell him about it."

"Yes, this time you need to be responsible for investigating the anomaly in the east of Dawn Valley, there is a huge energy reaction there, and you need to find out the situation!"

"Yes, mission guaranteed!" Anru replied confidently.

"Don't be so anxious to answer, once you get out of the walls of Dawn Valley, you won't be faced with puppets standing still! I heard that none of you have actual combat experience, so there is no big risk this time, so you should take a chance to experience. Song Yucheng's tone was filled with concern for the newcomer.

"General, we won't let you down!"

"I hope so, I will let Adjutant Zhang take you with me when I go out this time, so you will listen to him."

"Didn't you let us go? Why do you want Adjutant Zhang to take us with you? Anlu asked, puzzled.

"I decided on the fly, just carry out the order."

"Yes! Checkmate. Zhang Lin replied on the side, and then An Lu also responded.

"You go down and prepare first, I'll tell Adjutant Zhang something, and you will leave in thirty minutes."

After An Lu walked out of the command hall, Song Yucheng became anxious again, and said to Zhang Lin:

"Let the people below strengthen the fortifications, it seems that a disaster is inevitable."

Song Yucheng's brows were tightly pressed together, and he thought of the houses under the city walls. Following the angle of vision, he looked at his own place in the corner in the distance, thinking about Bai Xiao's innocent and lovely face, and then let out a sigh.

"Do you need help?" Zhang Lin said hesitantly.

"Please help? To whom? The major defense areas are all in a tight war, could it be that it is a distant capital? Don't forget what Lei Shuo is doing in the Far Capital! ”

When Song Yucheng mentioned the words about the far capital again, his expression always swelled with an irrepressible sense of resentment.

"But ......"

Seeing this, Zhang Lin only wanted to speak and stopped.

"The aristocrats, who always thought that they could live their lives if they were committed to the high walls, had to bear the calamity of the people while they feasted within the high walls! It's ridiculous that the warriors who protect the people should be subjected to the catastrophe that they have personally cultivated! Song Yucheng's tone was angry and cold, and his expression became serious and angry at this moment.

"......" Zhang Lin closed his mouth sensibly at this time.

"You go out, remember, you must bring Anlu back to me safely."

"Yes! The subordinates guarantee to complete the task. Then he turned and left.

The history of people building walls and committing themselves to them can be traced back 700 years ago, when a meteor pierced the sky. The dark night was lit like day by the fire generated by the friction between meteorites and the atmosphere, and with a loud bang, the world ushered in the greatest disaster in history. The space virus brought by the meteorite has infected most of the world's animals and plants, causing them to mutate into alien beasts. Humans were initially unaffected and did not produce mutations, but they were threatened by the beasts and became food for the beasts, and the humans were almost slaughtered. Some of the surviving people have built high walls to defend against foreign beasts, but in such a post-apocalyptic world, it is also necessary to pay a great price to survive.

After a long time, a middle-aged man about 40 years old walked into the command hall, and his anxious expression also attracted Song Yucheng's attention.

"Fure?" This person is an instructor at the Dawn Valley Boot Camp and one of the commanders in charge of Dawn Valley's logistics and defense.

"General ......". Fu Lei looked panicked, knelt down in the hall for a long time, and didn't dare to raise his head to look directly at Song Yucheng.

"What's the matter?"

"Du Ming's team had an accident when they went to the Strange Wood Forest to pick up waste last week, and the team members were killed or wounded, and the losses were relatively serious..."

"What?" Song Yucheng's tone also revealed a little surprise, he never thought that Du Ming's team, which had always been experienced and difficult to go wrong, would encounter such a predicament, even if he saw the panicked face of Fu Lei under him, he still couldn't believe what it was that would cause Du Ming's group, one of the more outstanding scavenging teams in Dawn Valley, to cause such damage.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Team C, which was conducting reconnaissance operations, also ......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What about the people who came back? Song Yucheng said with a worried face.

"It's been arranged, let them go down first and adjust on their own......"

"Hmm......" Song Yucheng's face showed a little heaviness again, and then he spoke.

"When they are emotionally stable, let Du Ming come to me"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yes, I'll do it right away. ”

"And! Did you bring back the corpses of the sacrificed soldiers? ”

"I'm sorry, General......"

Song Yucheng had a trace of resentment on his face, and at the same time mixed with a little unwillingness, he continued-

"Gather the Guards, select a dozen experienced veterans, and let them take your logistics team to the Tricky Wood Forest to bring back the remains of the sacrificed soldiers. At least...... Let the warriors who died in the Valley of Dawn have a decent place to live. ”

Song Yucheng's face showed a rare sadness, and his eyes looked slightly towards the place where there was light and shadow, and the slight light spots also reflected the unique emotion in his heart.

"Yes!"

Fu Lei was furnished, his breath trembled slightly, this was not due to fear, but like Song Yucheng, he was also regretting the group of soldiers who died bravely.

At this time, under the high wall, Zhang Lin and An Lu were also preparing to leave the city.

"Report, Anlu team has assembled!" Anlu reported to Zhang Lin. The six people behind him were also neatly dressed in white armor and gray robes, and at the same time, their spirits were also highly concentrated.

"Yes, go with me!" Zhang Lin shouted, and after a while, a group of eight people will quickly leave the city.

At this time, Song Yucheng, who was still in the command hall, was already full of sadness.

"Let's hurry up and make arrangements."

"Yes......" Frei took the order and slowly retreated.

After a while, Song Yucheng looked a little uneasy, and the guards beside him said when they saw this: "General, are you okay?" After another moment, Song Yucheng got up and walked out of the command hall and walked towards the high wall. When the soldiers saw Song Yucheng coming, their spirits instantly became highly tense, and some soldiers used the afterglow to check their clothing and standing posture. It wasn't until Song Yucheng was far away from them that he breathed a sigh of relief...... Soon it was noon.

Ah Qing took Song Jingran outside the house, her body naturally facing the high wall in the distance, and her face also showed a worried expression, looking at the direction of the high wall for a long time. Song Jingran saw Aqing's expression and asked with some concern: "Mom, what's wrong with you... Not happy at all. ”

"Jing Ran..." Ah Qing saw Song Jingran's somewhat worried eyes, and gently comforted her.

"It's okay, mom is just worried about your dad."

"Dad......" said Song Jingran, who also threw the current direction in the direction that A-Qing had just seen. Ah Qing gently put her hand on Song Jingran's head, and the two stood silently together facing the direction of the high wall for a while.

"Ah Qing, Jing Ran is here."

While the two were still standing and praying for important people, Li Su suddenly arrived

"Auntie!" Song Jingran, who heard the voice, shouted happily and ran towards Li Su.

"Aunt Su, why are you here?" Ah Qing also greeted politely.

Li Su hugged Song Jingran, who was running over, and said to Aqing: "It's okay today, Xiaolong is still in the army, and no one at home came out to breathe, and I happened to see your mother outside the house, so I came over to take a look." There was a hint of embarrassment on his face.

"That's just right, Aunt Su doesn't come often, let's go into the house." Ah Qing fiddled with her clothes a few times, and said to Li Su very politely, with a bit of respect in her tone.

"That's right! Auntie is coming into the house. ”

"Okay, okay, Grandma and Jing Ran will go into the house together."

After a while, a few wisps of green smoke came out of the house, and the green smoke was filled with the smell of recipes, and the three of them sat naturally in the living room, and Aqing's virtuous hands made the dishes extra appetizing.

"Don't wait for Yucheng?" Li Su said politely.

"He came back very late, you know, after all, he cares about the cold city wall, even if I want to wait for the child, I can't wait, Aunt Su is not easy to come once, and I can't delay."

"That's right, Dad will be back in a long time, Auntie eat quickly, Mom's cooking is delicious." Song Jingran also said on the side.

"Hahaha, Yucheng is also thinking about the people of Dawn Valley."

"Okay, Aunt Su, let's not talk about him, let's eat quickly, the food will be cold in a while."

"Okay, okay..."The three of them started their lunch time with the politeness of you coming and going.

At the same time, outside the Dawn Valley, Zhang Lin and An Lu and their party were about to reach their destination after passing through the dense forest on the outskirts of the valley. But the road is not very peaceful, the inexperienced group of newcomers have been in constant condition, except for Anlu and the other two team members, one named Orr, the other named Oran, there is no big situation, the other four members will be at risk of falling off the horse in the face of dense forest environment and rugged environment. Many times, when Zhang Lin saw the situation happen, even if he helped, he avoided falling down.

"Be careful, you'll have this day."

Zhang Lin is concerned about these newcomers, even if the situation is full of problems, it is not the time to scold at this stage, being outside the high wall is completely different from being inside the high wall, fortunately, the danger level of the current area is still within the control of Dawn Valley, and there are no large alien beasts around that can pose a threat to a few people, so even if there is a situation, it can still be dealt with, but if you go out of the control area of Dawn Valley, once there is a situation, it will be difficult to deal with, even if you are depressed, you may lose your life. Therefore, when facing the defeat or mistake of a comrade-in-arms, you can't scold too much. Scavenging teams that go out are often distracted and in danger. Fortunately, the team members who appeared in the situation were all those who had excellent training results in the Dawn Valley, and after almost falling off the horse several times and being rescued and instructed by Zhang Lin, they all began to slowly adapt to the current situation, and they were soon able to make state adjustments, and several people could be regarded as following the team without danger.

"Thank you, Adjutant!" A newcomer in the team who was helped by Zhang Lin said.

"You're welcome, it's your first time going out, and the outside world is different from the inside of Dawn Valley, so it's normal to have a hard time adapting at first."

"Understood, sir!"

"You all be careful, I'll go find your captain." With that, he hurried towards Anlu's horse.

"Anru! Anlu! ”

"Do you have any instructions, Lord Adjutant?" Anru replied back.

"I didn't expect you to have two good players on your team, and there have been no fatal mistakes so far." Zhang Lin praised it, and turned his gaze to the two people who had not made major mistakes so far - Fang Hai and Shi Wei. An Lu followed Zhang Lin's gaze, smiled proudly and said, "Haha, those two had the same grades as me when they were training in Dawn Valley. ”

"Oh? What are their names? ”

"No, Adjutant Lord, as the executive officer of Dawn Valley, you don't even know the soldiers with excellent grades under your command?" Anru said suspiciously.

"Even as the general's adjutant, I don't have real-time control of the situation in the boot camp, after all, in such a world, people can remember often those who survived"

"......" Anlu was silent for a moment.

"One is called Fang Hai, and the other is called Shi Wei." An Lu seemed to be helpless to introduce to Zhang Lin.

"Okay, I see, I'm looking forward to your performance on this outing."

"Of course it's an absolute !!"

Time flies by in the blink of an eye, and the sun is close to ten minutes. Zhang Lin Anlu and the others, who continued to hurry, had also reached the designated destination, and after placing their horses on the periphery, they entered the lonely valley in an orderly manner......

There was a foul stench in the quiet valley, like rotting corpses and feces mixed together. The muddy liquid flowed out from the inside out along with the topography of the valley, leaving no grass growing for miles. Accompanied by the stench and mud, there are layers of thick fog, they are like a big mouth, they will be swallowed everywhere they go, once they enter, they will be lost in the stench and mire, but these stenches attract a large number of worms and mosquitoes and adults, this place has become their paradise, but it is purgatory in the eyes of other creatures.

"Adjutant, we're not going to go inside to investigate, are we?" An Lu and his party could feel the stench just by standing ten miles away.

"No need, don't talk about you when you get closer, even I won't be able to stand it, it seems too late now, find a place where we need to rest for the night."

"But what does sleeping near here have to do with sleeping under the bed with a basin of?" An Lu complained, and the team members on the side also nodded in agreement, but Shi Wei smiled "poof".

"Captain, it's not the right time for you to complain......" Shi Wei said.

"Don't complain, all actions out of the Valley of Dawn are up to you, you want to go to a place where there is no stench to rest, and those fanged beasts think the same way. If you don't want your elders to send white-haired people to black-haired people, find a suitable place nearby for one night! Zhang Lin scolded a few people, and a few people immediately lost their voices and bowed their heads in acquiescence.

At the same time in the Dawn Valley, at that time, Song Yucheng sent out more than ten people to find the corpses of the sacrificed soldiers, and then the six or seven people who came back one after another all reported that the mission had found nothing, and Song Yucheng's melancholy face was also getting tighter and tighter, until one of the seriously wounded soldiers came back to report...

"Report to the General, we've been attackedβ€”" A mortally wounded soldier staggered into the command hall.

"What's going on?!" Song Yucheng hurriedly rushed down from the general's desk and grabbed the seriously injured soldier and said.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Xiaolong and I were about to split up, but unexpectedly... As soon as they parted for less than a cup of tea, a miserable scream came from the direction of Xiaolong..."As he spoke, pus and blood spit out from his mouth from time to time

"Slow down and don't rush, the medical officer will be here soon... Say it slowly..."

"As I was on my way to the little dragon, he had already been pierced through the chest by the monster's claws,... The little dragon who was still alive spotted me and motioned for me to run away, and I was ...... Most of them were out of fear, and they didn't care so much when they saw Xiaolong's gestures...... So ......"

"What about the corpses of the previous sacrificed warriors? Have you found any of them? ”

"I don't know, we searched for a while and we didn't see it... The traces of the soldiers who died before...", and fainted...

After carrying the wounded soldier down, Song Yucheng's whole body trembled, and his body swayed from side to side a few times as if he was a little disobedient, and the successive bad news made Song Yucheng's expression become trance-like. But after a while, he had to re-correct his posture, his eyes changed to resolute, but the gloom in the depths of his eyes still could not subside, and a careful guard soldier saw Song Yucheng, who was not in a good state, and hurriedly ran to help him and was concerned:

"General, are you alright..."

"It's okay...... Stand down, all of you. Song Yucheng was slowly helped back to sit on the desk.

The "General......" The soldiers were still worried, but Song Yucheng was silent. Song Yucheng, who was sitting on the desk, pondered for a long time, and his face was full of helplessness and sadness.

"Wait...... Regarding the sacrifice of the soldiers, don't spread it yet, don't say it before or tonight, the fewer people who know, the better, especially Yang Xiaolong's side, I will go there in person. ”

Song Yucheng said weakly to the people below. At this time, Song Yucheng did not have Zhang Lin by his side, and for a while, he only felt that a boulder was extremely heavy on his chest.

"Yes... General"

The soldiers who were committed to retreating had no choice but to obey Song Yucheng's orders.

"Alright, let's all go down..."

Song Yucheng was the only one left in the command hall of Nuo University, slumped in a chair, unable to take care of himself for a long time.

And under the cool dome, there is also an empty uneasiness. The dense forest beyond the valley of the high wall was blown by a cold wind, and the trees that were left under the shells let out a terrible cry......
