On the second day after Li Huai left Ebony City, Yang Lingyun led 8,000 cavalry, leaving traces for the first time.

It is thousands of miles away from the Great Wall, in the rear of the Northern Wilderness, near the banks of the Wuhe River.

No one knows how her 8,000 people came here without knowing it.

Yang Lingyun attacked the military horse pasture in the Northern Wilderness here, robbed the military horses in the Northern Wilderness of grain and grass, burned everything that could not be taken away, and all the prisoners were disposed of on the spot, then crossed the Wu River and still headed for the north.

And destroyed the bridge over the Wu River.

By the time the reinforcements from the Northern Wilderness arrived, Yang Lingyun had long since disappeared, and he didn't know where he went.

This is all because the Northern Wilderness is too vast and sparsely populated, and trying to find Yang Lingyun is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

However, according to Yang Lingyun's course of action, it is expected that her target is likely to be Beihai.

The royal court of the Northern Wilderness is in the North Sea.

This was not intended to affect the nerves of the Northern Wilderness, who originally came from the east to support the reinforcements of the Great Wall battlefield.

After receiving the order, he immediately changed the route of the march and marched in the direction of the Wuhe River, and the battle line in the Northern Wilderness was pulled back again.

On the Beihai side, a three-way army was also dispatched, wanting to intercept Yang Lingyun halfway.

Looking at the entire Northern Wilderness's arrangement, except for the main force in the east, which did not move, the rest moved.

They retreated not because they were afraid of the Great Wall Army.

This is obviously to encircle Yang Lingyun north of the Wu River.

If Yang Lingyun can't achieve her goal before they close the siege, and retreat to the south of the Wu River.

I'm afraid it's going to be hard to come out.

The main force of the Great Wall Army pursued the victory, and advanced more than a hundred miles, biting the main force of the Northern Wilderness.

Stop them from joining forces!

这场战争突然就进入了白热化的阶段，每天有将近万人战死，鲜血染红了翠绿的草原。

At the same time, it also has some effect on the people.

In the past, the Northern Wilderness invaded, robbed, and plundered the Central Plains, and the Central Plains people hated the Northern Wilderness because of this, and the Northern Wilderness was proud of it, showing off their atrocities everywhere.

Right now.

Yang Lingyun stabbed a sword in their hearts, slaughtering their soldiers and civilians, burning down their houses, and robbing them of their supplies.

The people of the Northern Wilderness have the same psychology as the Central Plains people who are hostile to the Northern Wilderness, and they are all gearing up to vent their evil anger.

However, the Northern Wilderness Imperial Court demanded that all 'guests' be treated kindly.

Be inclusive.

As a result, all kinds of psychology, all kinds of ghosts and gods, each with a ghost, is bound to cause a bloody storm in the northern barren rivers and lakes......

……

"Damn, before I came, no one told Lao Tzu that the Northern Wilderness is so vast, this snow-capped mountain can't be finished."

Li Huai collected some dead wood, found a small cave, temporarily avoided the wind and snow outside, and took out a compass and patted it.

Fortunately, he was prescient.

When making the compass, it is necessary to pour purified sake into it so that it does not freeze at low temperatures.

If it weren't for this thing, he wouldn't have been able to tell the difference between east and west.

Take out the last portion of food.

Li Huai suddenly remembered the wine and meat that he threw away in the ruined temple a few days ago, if he hadn't thrown it away......

He sighed.

The old monk was right, a person who is often full can't stand hunger, so he divides the last bit of food into two portions and eats one and a half full.

Learn to starve, too.

Li Huai had just finished eating, when he suddenly broke into a group of people, four men and one woman, who patted the snow on their bodies at the door of the cave.

I looked up and saw someone inside.

"I'm sorry, I don't know that this cave has a master, if you don't mind, let us squeeze too, it's too cold outside." A gruff man smiled shyly.

Li Huai nodded slightly, this cave is not his family, if they want to come in, he can still stop it.

The five men were on the other side, lit a bonfire, and took out some raw meat, which was roasted with oil.

The cave is full of the smell of meat.

I'm so hungry!

Li Huai originally thought that it was okay to be half full, but after smelling the smell of meat, it was like he hadn't eaten for three days.

The hungry began to panic.

What he didn't expect was this.

The woman among them took a piece of meat, handed it to Li Huai, and asked, "Are you from the Central Plains?" ”

Li Huai didn't answer.

"Don't mind, we are also from the Central Plains, since we are all from the Central Plains, when we go outside, it is a family, you can take it and eat it." She stretched the roast again.

"Thank you, I've eaten it, you can keep it for yourselves." Li Huai hesitated for a moment, but still refused.

He wasn't afraid that the barbecue was poisonous, he was now a martial artist in the Mahayana realm, and there were hardly a few poisons that were effective against him.

He just didn't want people to know that he was out of food.

I don't want to have too much communication with them.

The woman didn't insist much, shook her head and went back, and they slept after eating, barely talking.

But one person was left to let the wind go.

Li Huai didn't want to look for the cave again, and he also rested against the wall, but he needed to pay a little attention.

Don't capsize in the gutter.

Midnight.

Li Huai's nerves were already very tight, and he woke up immediately after a little wind and early movement.

Presumably the one they let out of the wind, found something, and woke up the other four.

The five of them summed up a little and set off, and they would come back, because their belongings were all left in the cave, and only their weapons were taken with them.

When you go out.

They were extra careful, as if they were afraid of waking Li Huai, but as everyone knows, Li Huaizheng looked at them with interest.

Wait until they leave.

Li Huai also stood up, but he was really curious, in the middle of the night, it was snowing outside, what were they doing out.

So he followed.

It wasn't a long way off.

Li Huai found them lying in ambush on both sides of the road, and soon a convoy came from the north.

The people in the convoy were very energetic, and it seemed that they should have deliberately rushed at night and slept during the day.

Vigilance is also high.

Looking at the banner of the convoy, this should be a caravan in the Central Plains, and looking at their appearance, they should be preparing to return to the Central Plains.

"What do these guys want?" Li Huai secretly said in his heart, he had probably guessed it, and he felt very uncomfortable.

No wonder along the way, the roadside was full of corpses, he thought it was the people of the Northern Wilderness who did it, but he didn't expect that it was the people of the Central Plains who killed the people of the Central Plains.

Sure enough.

When the convoy entered their ambush circle, the five guys rushed straight out, without masking or saying a word.

Kill someone you see!

There was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and the caravan was no match at all, and several people were quickly cut down.

Li Huai hates compatriots killing each other the most, no matter what their purpose is, this kind of behavior is absolutely intolerable.

Immediately raised the dragon's tooth bow and shot an arrow.

Sou!

They didn't expect someone to sneak attack from behind, and without any defense, one of them had an extra blood hole in his chest.

Don't give them much time to react.

Li Huai pulled the bow continuously, and three blood arrows shot out, and with the imperial archery technique, he saw a flash of blood, and the remaining four people fell to the ground together.

I don't know who killed them until they die.

Seeing that the crisis was resolved, Li Huai walked out from behind the stone, came to the caravan, raised his hand and said, "You don't have to be nervous, I am from the Central Plains." ”

Immediately, two girls ran out with rain and knelt in front of Li Huai.

Constantly kowtow.

"Thank you."

"Thank you so much!"

They look really strange and pitiful, during the war, I don't know what kind of business they did when they came to the Northern Wilderness.

"Get up, the road is uneven and draw a sword to help, this is as it should be." Li Huaihan said with a smile.

It's no wonder that ancient heroes like to meddle in things, and after doing chivalry, the feeling of being grateful is indeed good.

Li Huaidu was a little embarrassed.

"Engong, there is nothing to repay, please accept this small gift."

A man's voice sounded behind him.

Li Huai didn't expect why this person wanted to come behind his back to offer a gift, so he turned around directly.

The two girls who were kneeling on the ground, pear blossoms and rain, in his subconscious, did not have any danger.

Just like flowers, no matter how many thorns they have, no matter how poisonous they are, the first impression they give is always beautiful.

"You don't have to be polite, you all said that the road is uneven......"

He wasn't done yet.

Brush!

The two women behind him took out a dagger from their sleeves at the same time and plunged directly into Li Huai's two waists.

When Li Huai sensed the danger, it was too late to draw the knife, the distance was too short, and the bow was not enough time to lift it.

He had no choice but to turn around, use his internal force to condense in his hands, and block the sudden attack with his powerful true qi.

Li Huai's face was full of doubts, he didn't even think clearly, why did they suddenly do it to him?

Syllable!

The giver tapped his finger on the box.

Sou!

A poisoned arrow shot out of the 'gift' in his hand.

Li Huaikan was able to block the two knives of the sneak attack from behind, and he had no spare strength to care about this arrow, not because of his lack of strength, but because of his lack of time, and it took time to operate his internal force.

In the final analysis, he still doesn't have enough heart, anyone who has traveled in the rivers and lakes for three months.

will not make such a low-level mistake as his.

It's too easy to trust people!

Click!

The arrow pierced Li Huai's left shoulder.

Li Huai also took advantage of this time to use internal force to force out the horse chopping knife in the scabbard, and took the knife with a wave of his right hand.

First cut off the two heads, and then the strength under his feet, like a swallow returning to the nest, flew upside down to the side of the person who offered the gift.

Chop off his hands first, then put the knife around his neck.

"Why?"

He was puzzled.

Obviously, they saved them themselves, how could they suddenly take revenge on him, there is no reason at all.

The giver smiled gloomily.

"Since you have walked into the hunting ground, it is either the prey or the hunter, how can you have such a naïve question."
