It is a good thing that Xiliang retreated, but among the generals in the crowd, none of them were happy, they did not save the lives of innocent people, because of delay and wrong tactics, which became the last straw that crushed the people.

"These brutes!" Shen Tianming gritted his teeth, "Chase!" Give me a ride to chase! ”

I don't know when the Xiliang army withdrew, they have a lot of wounded soldiers, and many people should not be able to ride horses, if they are lucky, they may be able to catch up.

"Drive!"

"Drive!"

The generals with horses raised their whips one after another, and went all the way west along the avenue, these places were occupied and slaughtered by Xiliang, and I don't know if there are any living people in the small towns and towns.

There are still traces of the army moving on the road, and everyone has worked hard for a day and a night, and finally stopped in Chuanling Town.

Chuanling Town is the border between Xiliang and Daliang, and no one can be seen after chasing here, that is to say, the Xiliang army has completely withdrawn.

"Damn!" Lu Tianhui punched the stump next to him, he didn't close his eyes for a day and a night, facing the wind, his eyeballs were already bloodshot, as if they would burst out at any time.

They were still a step too late and failed to catch up with the Xiliang army.

After chasing for so long, the horse and the people are tired, Shen Tianming doesn't know martial arts, the first time he rode a horse to run such a long distance, if he didn't rely on perseverance, he would have to fall directly on the horse's back.

Behind Chuanling Town is Bailong Mountain, and continuing in the direction of Bailong Mountain will pass through a plain and a mountain range, where the terrain is steep and easy to ambush.

In order to ensure safety, everyone decided not to continue to move forward.

Clearing the streets and searching for the living would take time, and it would be a time-consuming and labor-intensive undertaking, and once the surrounding area was safe, the soldiers stationed in Song City could be sent west until all the territory was recovered.

The streets of Chuanling Town are overgrown with weeds, the surrounding shops are in shambles, and there are basically no living creatures to be seen on the streets except wild dogs.

There was a rotten and foul smell all around, and if you looked closely, you could see a white skeleton lying on the street.

This is the homeland of him and Shen Tianming, which has become lifeless and stench.

"Dongyi Street ......" Lu Tianhui has not forgotten this place, that day, he and Su Qingyan went to the market to hang out, and such a disaster happened before they came back.

"Drive!" Raising the horsewhip, the whirlwind hissed and ran towards Dongyi Street, where the environment was a little better than on the street, the courtyards of the mansions were still there, the gates were open, and the inside was desolate, and the fallen leaves were scattered all over the ground.

Lu Tianhui walked into the He Mansion, the main hall was unrecognizable, there were obvious traces of killing and robbery, it had been desolate for more than half a year, and the people in the mansion had fled without dying.

"Qingyan?" Lu Tianhui subconsciously shouted at the backyard, but there was no response as expected.

Walking into the Lingque Hall, the house was covered with dust, there were traces of rummaging inside, and the chairs and tables were thrown on the ground.

Coming to the place where they lived again, Lingquetang has a lot of memories of the couple, the broken dresser has been turned into a mess, all the gold and silver jewelry is gone, and the red rouge has fallen to the ground to form a scratch, which looks like blood is on it.

When I opened the wardrobe, I was surprised to find that the clothes inside were still there, and Su Qingyan's Luo skirt was neatly stacked in the cabinet and was not snatched away.

Lu Tianhui hugged her skirt in his arms like a rare treasure, the clothes had not been breathed in the cabinet for several months, and the corners of the skirt were already a little moldy, Lu Tianhui brought the skirt to the tip of his nose, and he could faintly smell a little perfume on it.

The rush of a day and a night made him nervous, and at this moment, his restless heart calmed down a little, his eyelids fell, and sleepiness hit.

The whirlwind was leisurely eating weeds in the courtyard, and Lu Tianhui hugged the Luo skirt and lay on the dusty bed.

This is the room between him and Su Qingyan, no matter what it becomes, he will not dislike it.

Tiredness swept through his body, and at some point, Lu Tianhui fell asleep, the smell of the Luo skirt was the same as that of Su Qingyan, and in a trance, he felt Qingyan lying beside him, gently stroking his face, and telling him that it was okay.

By the time I woke up, it was almost dark.

Lu Tianhui shook his still not sober head, he had been lying here all day.

The hungry aunt called, Lu Tianhui packed up his things and walked out of the He Mansion.

On this day, after a short rest, the soldiers began to clean the streets and search for people who were still alive, Chuanling Town was so big, even the surrounding small towns, it was dead, and there was not a single living person.

Everyone was stationed here for the time being, Zhang Xiaobao found Lu Tianhui at the intersection of Dongyi Street with rice porridge, and ran over and asked with concern: "Where have you been all day?" Your Highness is looking for you. ”

"Ah, I...... I went home and took a look. Lu Tianhui rubbed his reddish eyes and refreshed himself a little.

"Home? Hey, I remember you said that your hometown is in the township below Songcheng, and it turns out that this is it. Zhang Xiaobao's mind went back and forth, and he said without thinking, "Then your relatives ......" is bad.

Zhang Xiaobao hurriedly covered his mouth, Chuanling Town is already a dead town, so isn't Lu Tianhui's parents and wife...... Lu Tianhui didn't speak, in his heart, Su Qingyan was just missing, and he would find her back one day.

Bai Shuo wrote a secret letter asking his subordinates to send it back to the capital, which wrote that Xiliang retreated, and our army began to recover the city.

It only took half a year for Xiliang to take the initiative to retreat, which is already very fast.

Turning around, Lu Tianhui returned to the temporary barracks, all the soldiers were busy cleaning up the site, everyone had to rest in Chuanling Town tonight, and they had to set up their tents.

Lu Tianhui glanced at Bai Shuo, who was standing at the door of the tent, and did not say hello, and walked backwards around him.

Before he could take two steps, Bai Shuo stopped him with a slight hatred.

The atmosphere was instantly white-hot, and the two of them looked at each other unpleasantly, at this time, Bai Shuo took the initiative to pick the side, and Lu Tianhui did not hesitate.

Turning around, he met Bai Shuo's unkind gaze, and respectfully bowed his hand: "General Bai." ”

It's just a few months since I saw him, Lu Tianhui has changed from a down-and-out civilian to a deputy general next to the five princes, such a change can be summed up in one word, that is, "one step to the sky", and this person is completely different from the silly man he has seen in Chuanling Town before.

Bai Shuo pursed his lips and opened his mouth to stop him because he was purely unhappy, Qingyan's whereabouts were unknown, but he was able to escape death, such a result Bai Shuo could not accept.

Bai Shuo walked up to him condescendingly with his hands behind his back and asked: "Lu Tianhui, don't think that you can deny your mistakes by climbing up to the Fifth Prince, I just sent someone to search all over Chuanling Town, and there is no Qingyan figure, but you can tell me, where did Qingyan go?" ”

As soon as he heard Bai Shuo mention Qingyan, Lu Tianhui's smirkling face collapsed a little, this kid even dared to call Qingyan's name in front of him.

Holding back the anger in his heart, Lu Tianhui turned his head and said coldly: "I don't know where she is." ”

"You don't know!" Lu Tianhui's understandable attitude made Bai Shuo extremely angry, how could he not know where Qingyan went, they were not husband and wife, he couldn't leave because he was clinging to Qingyan, how could he not know what happened to Qingyan.

Bai Shuo resolutely said: "Hmph, if the person standing next to Qingyan is me, I will definitely not leave her and run for my life, I will protect her." ”
