Although there are some inevitable twists and turns and sacrifices, but the task of the eighth guard is successfully completed, and then only need to return to the guard safely, this exploration operation is a complete success, under the command of General Yang, the commander and the chief led the soldiers under him to carry out the work of the withdrawal in an orderly manner, the face of each soldier is a joy that cannot be concealed, and the camp is full of joy.

The tents where the warriors lived were folded up, tied up and placed on the wagons, and the rest of the baggage supplies were also securely placed on the box boards and firmly fastened with ropes, which were essential for a smooth return, while seriously wounded people like Yan Zheng were specially vacated for them to rest.

She opened the medicine bag she was carrying and dried it carefully, and took off the blood-stained clothes on Yan Zheng's seriously injured people, and cleaned them one by one, wearing these filthy clothes for a long time is not conducive to the healing of wounds.

Under the care of the little doctor, most of these seriously injured survived, only a few of the injuries were too serious, and because of the lack of medical treatment, they could not persevere, the seriously injured people have a deep sense of gratitude to her, in their eyes, this little doctor is tantamount to a fairy sent by heaven to relieve their pain, so that they can survive.

Yan Zheng, who also received the careful care of the little doctor, had basically recovered his mobility at this time, but in order to hide the existence of the red yarn Bodhi, he still lay down with those seriously injured, and the large and small wounds on his body had actually all been scabbed, and the skin under him had almost recovered.

Tomorrow the whole team will set out after the evacuation is over, and the warriors will finally have time to sit down and recuperate, after many fierce battles, the armor they wear is also damaged by the hemp rope and cowhide they wear, and as the armor pieces on it fall or shatter, the protective effect of the armor will gradually decrease.

The wooden box where the spare armor pieces were stored was carried out, and a soldier stepped forward, opened the box and grabbed a handful of armor pieces from it, and distributed them to everyone present, the soldiers took the armor, and then took off the armor on their bodies, and filled the spare armor pieces to the vacant position, the current leisure time is only temporary, and they will definitely face a lot of battles on the way back, in order to improve the probability of survival, they must complete the incomplete armor pieces on their bodies as much as possible.

The previous investigation of the failure of the 57th exploration did not come to a reasonable result, although the inspector Yushi sensed some indescribable aura from the armor left by the soldiers, and sent those armor fragments to the imperial capital for further examination in time, but after the inspection of the refining master, except for the indescribable aura, there was no other problem with the armor on the soldiers' bodies, and the indescribable aura was impossible to find, which eventually led to the investigation ending without a hitch.

However, in order to ensure the smooth progress of future exploration operations and to avoid similar problems from happening again, the smelting workshop that had been responsible for casting the armor of the border army was replaced by the local forging bureau in the northeastern province, which was responsible for the manufacture of weapons and armor required for the 58th exploration operation.

By the time the soldiers had finished their work, it was getting dark, and the earth was asleep, except for the campfires for cooking, and the camp was silent except for the occasional sound of the sentinels' movements.

The little doctor has fallen asleep next to Yan Zheng, she has been falling asleep like this for the past two days, Yan Zheng worked hard to adjust her posture, and used her shoulders as a cushion for the little doctor, so that she could sleep more comfortably, looking at the quiet sleeping face of the little doctor, Yan Zheng felt very relieved, this exploration operation was finally coming to an end, and he also protected the people he wanted to protect, and lived up to the little doctor's trust in him.

Just as Yan Zheng was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt a palpitation, this feeling was not caused by the red yarn Bodhi, but as if the heart was pinched by some invisible hand, Yan Zheng understood that it was his body's instinctive fear, he struggled to get up, wanting to see where this feeling came from.

Inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of an unusual figure, the figure was wearing blood-red Hanfu sleeves, the shoulders were dotted with ink-colored star stripes, the blood-red light veil covered her face, only a pair of soft and boneless slender hands appeared from the sleeves, and there were a few touches of delicate and blood-like Kodan on the jade fingers, she stepped on the void like this, walking above the camp, bathed in the cold moonlight, like a fairy who had been degraded to mortal dust.

This astonishing beauty made Yan Zheng forget to breathe for a while, and even the stars in the sky were eclipsed in front of her, Yan Zheng couldn't believe it, he thought he was wrong, but the powerful coercion exuded by the fairy from the inside out made him have to believe it, a sentry seemed to have caught a glimpse of the fairy's shadow, he grew his mouth in surprise, but he couldn't make any sound from his throat.

Yan Zheng didn't know what the sentry had seen, he only knew that after seeing the fairy, the sentry froze in place, his eyes were full of fear of the unknown, blood flowed out of his eye sockets, and then he completely lost his self-consciousness and fell to his knees.

The sentinel's reaction made Yan Zheng look different, he could be sure that this was the source of the strong danger that made him feel strong, this fairy appeared too abnormally, not to mention how dangerous it was in the netherworld, just the person who could appear without attracting the attention of these monks in the camp was far beyond Qingxu, what was she? A monster disguised as a human? Or is it some unknowable cultivator?

The fairy ignored the sentinel who saw her figure, her eyes only glanced at Yan Zheng's body, but Yan Zheng's slight deeds did not attract her attention, in her eyes, these people were just food, the fairy lifted the blood-red light veil that covered her face, her cherry lips opened lightly, and she hummed a song.

"He is a good person, and he has five pigs, and he is so angry! He is a peng, a hair and five pigs, and he is so happy! ”

The fairy's voice was beautiful, but the songs she hummed were very strange, Yan Zheng couldn't understand the syllables she made, he only felt that these sounds were like maggots demanding carrion, scrambling to drill into his ears, making his brain swell, even after the fairy sang a song, those voices did not dissipate, but continued to echo in midair.

The sentry, apparently affected by the singing, was also affected by the singing, a wisp of blood flowed from his ears, and it was evident that his eardrum had been broken, and the sleeping soldiers rose to their feet and walked towards the center of the camp like walking corpses, even the monks were not spared, and they numbly followed the unconscious crowd and converged at the fairy's feet.

The little doctor also stood up in a daze, joining the walking crowd, Yan Zheng reached out to grab her, but she subconsciously pushed away, under the influence of the singing, everyone in the entire camp was deeply hallucinated, and no external stimulation could make them wake up.

Looking at the bustling crowd below, the fairy's beautiful face showed an irrepressible fanaticism, she clapped her hands gently, and the invisible power spread outward, whether it was a monk or an ordinary soldier, their souls were all forced to manifest, and the heaven and earth aura contained in it was also extracted, and converged towards the fairy's palm, forming a ball of red and blood-like light, and there were a few strands of dark blue silk threads hidden in the flowing light, adding a bit of weirdness to this blood-like light.

The fairy frowned slightly, as if she was a little disgusted by these blue silk threads, she stretched out her jade finger towards the light, and a few strands of dark blue silk threads were pulled by her fingers from the blood-like light, condensing into a dark blue crystal on her fingertips, she flicked her fingers, and the crystal broke through the air and disappeared.

Looking at the rich blood-like light in her hand, the fairy could no longer suppress her rising appetite, her originally exquisite facial features became blurred, and her white face as white as snow bloomed like a flower, revealing several bottomless holes under it, and the terrifying suction came from the holes, and the blood-like light was quickly swallowed in.

The fairy who had finished the meal let out a coquettish smile, the blooming flowers closed back again, and the beautiful facial features reappeared on her face, she reached out to put on the blood-red light veil, and then clapped her hands again, and the bustling crowd below returned to the tent as if they had heard some order, and the little doctor also returned to Yan Zheng's side, and lay down against him, as if nothing had happened just now.

When Yan Zheng overcame the influence of the voice, the strange fairy in red had long been missing, Yan Zheng was so frightened that he couldn't speak for a while, if he wasn't controlled by the song, he would definitely join those crowds, and be absorbed by the fairy in red, fortunately, this fairy was not unfavorable to them, but only absorbed a lot of aura, but Yan Zheng still felt afraid, with the strength of this fairy, as long as she wanted to, then everyone present, even him, would have no chance of escaping.

When everyone woke up the next day, they all felt inexplicably tired, as if everyone had experienced a fierce battle last night, and several monks were even weaker than they could even stand up, and were forced to sit in the carriage to rest, and many of them had blood stains on their ears, as if their eardrums had been damaged to varying degrees.

Yan Zheng paid special attention to the sentry who witnessed the fairy in red, but he didn't show anything special, let alone report something to his superiors, it seems that Yan Zheng is the only one who knows what happened last night, no, it's not accurate to say that, there is another person in this camp who also witnessed last night's vision.

On the way home, there was a man who was tightly bound by ropes, his eyes were badly congested, his face was sinister, his body was also dirty, and his mouth kept repeating words of unknown meaning, even if his throat was hoarse, but these words were naturally regarded as crazy by the soldiers guarding him, and no one cared.

Yan Zheng, who was in a carriage in front, heard it clearly, and Ji Wuchang kept repeating a passage, which was the song sung by the fairy in red last night.
