Chapter 72: The Current Situation of the Feng Family
At this time, the people in the city of Lovat in the southern region of the empire were in turmoil, and the hearts of the people were uneasy, because they knew that a big event was going to happen here today, and the god-king alliance, known as the first shili in the empire, would start an all-out war with the Feng family, the king of the southern region of the empire.
The once bustling and dense streets of the city are now empty, and the cries of the former bustling city are gone, and the whole city is full of dead silence except for the sound of the wind.
The people are hiding at home and afraid to go out, the war is about to start, and everyone's hearts seem to be covered with a thick layer of haze.
Located in the center of Lovat City, the Wind Mansion is heavily guarded at the moment, and there are a large number of guards patrolling inside and outside the gate, and everyone looks very nervous, as if any wind and grass cannot escape their eyes.
In fact, the guards may also know that this is a battle with no chance of winning, but for the sake of the Feng family, and for the promise they once made to Fengyuntian, they will not be stingy with their lives, and vow to stop the enemy from fighting until Zuihou falls, and they will use their lives and blood to build the strongest wall for the Feng family.
These people can be said to be the real dead soldiers of the Feng family, and they are the most trusted people in the past, even if they know that this is a mortal situation, even if they know that they may not be able to play a big role, but they still have no hesitation, hoping to use their lives to fight for the dying Feng family.
The inner courtyard of the Feng family, this is the most heavily guarded place of the Feng family, and if you look closely, the range of the guards patrolling is actually gathered in a corner, in front of a hut.
It's a very ordinary room, and there is nothing special about it from the outside, but there is a slight strange sound from time to time inside.
Crash...... Crash......
It was like the sound of a bound beast breaking free from its chains.
At that moment, a maid came to the front of the house with a plate of food, and the guards looked at her and nodded, and the maid tapped the door twice, and then opened the door.
The sun shone in through the doorway, and everything in the hut seemed much clearer, except for the corner on one side of the door, which was still dark, and the sound of the chains swaying from this direction.
"Miss, come over for dinner. β
The maid's eyes looked at the dark corner, and there was a deep sadness in her eyes.
Although she has been here to deliver food for almost half a year, it stands to reason that she should also get used to it, but whenever she thinks of the Tianjiao girl who once stood proud of the empire, and now she has become like this, her heart is still sad.
In the shadows, a figure slowly emerged under the reflection of the sun, this is actually a woman, sitting cross-legged on the ground looks very casual, because of the cloak so it is not clear to see the face, but from the outline of her face, this is definitely a peerless beauty that cannot be seen, but her complexion is more pale than fair, even if there is no trace of blood under the reflection of the sun, and all this is not the most critical, the most unacceptable is the woman's body, actually tied up four chains thicker than her arm, every time she makes a move, the chains will shake and make a sound, which is the reason why there will be strange noises in the roomγ The clothes she was wearing were a black robe that had been broken forty percent, not only full of mud stains, but also conspicuous red marks and red spots, which dotted the entire black robe, as long as you looked closely, you knew that this was not the original decoration of the black robe, and the red marks were filled with the stench of rotting human blood.
All of this, if combined with the creepy ghost-like aura that emanates from time to time on the woman's body, her image is more like a peerless beast that is still asleep and may wake up at any time.
"Third Miss, come over for dinner. β
That's right! This woman with hair is the third lady of the Feng family, Feng Tianyue, since she became a demon half a year ago, the Feng family is afraid that she will run away, so she has always maintained such a state of life. Seeing that the young lady was sitting on the ground indifferent, the maid coaxed in a softer tone.
But Feng Tianyue still didn't react, her eyes looked dull, only her mouth seemed to be babbling, and she didn't know what to say.
The maid shook her head at this, put down her meal, and withdrew.
For half a year, Feng Tianyue has been like this, as long as there are people, she will become more and more nervous, only in the middle of the night when she is alone, she seems to be able to find some of her past rationality, and come to the table while crying and eating the meal that has long been cold.
The maid withdrew, the door was closed again, and Feng Tianyue still sat motionless.
The maid walked through the back hall to the front hall, there were a total of eight people in the hall, all of them were big men with tigers on their backs, and the leader was a big man with several scars on his face and a hideous appearance.
"Lana, how is the third lady doing?"
Seeing the maid coming this way, the leader asked.
"Napa-sama, Mademoiselle is still the same as before, and she was sluggish when I was there. Lana replied, she was Fengchen's personal maid three years ago, she did not leave the Feng family in the three years that Fengchen disappeared, and now she has become a seventeen-year-old slim girl, and her strength has also reached the sixth order of the Spirit Realm, and she is one of the rare core maids of the Feng family.
Napa sighed, as expected but still a little disappointed by the result, waved at Lana, motioning for her to stand aside, and Lana bowed her head and stepped back behind Napa
"How can this be good, the current state of the third lady is not enough to meet the combat power, and the eldest lady has not replied, are we really going to fight alone?" said the giant man who sat first on the left side of Napa.
"I'm afraid that's true, the death of the little young master has allowed at least half of the forces of the exterminating Zilan to stay in the headquarters, they think that since the Feng family is extinct, it will be defeated sooner or later anyway, so there is no need to fight hard to protect the Feng family!" said a one-eyed man on the right.
"What's even more unbelievable is that the second young lady would betray the Feng family, and she also became the leader of the God King Alliance, doesn't it make it more difficult for us to make a move," the others also frowned and said.
"That's right! The secret envoy we sent to persuade the second lady has not returned, I am afraid that something happened to him. Could it be that the second young lady is really determined to destroy the Feng family, and wants to kill the third young lady, no matter what, it is her own sister!" A big man in the back said worriedly.
"Alas, the world is unpredictable, even if we want to regret it now, it's too late, since we chose to follow the Feng family in the first place, we can only resign ourselves to fate. The giant man on the left lowered his head and sighed, shaking his head with a look of regret in his eyes.
"Humph!"
Napa had not spoken before, but at this moment, seeing that the generals around him had lowered their heads, looking like they were too late to regret, he finally couldn't help it, and a cold snort shocked the audience.
"I always thought that although our positions have changed, our thinking is still the same as when we followed the prince, never give up, but I didn't expect that I was the only one who thought like this, you are all old and have become cowards. Napa roared angrily.
"What do you mean by that, Napa? What do you mean that we have become cowards! This battle is still a mortal situation, but we still jump in without hesitation for the favor of the prince, and now we are just complaining about what is wrong, don't we let us tell a few words of truth when everyone is dying?" The giant man on the left couldn't get used to Napa's tone, and retorted angrily.
"Is this what you are telling the truth? I think you have long forgotten the kindness of the prince. But I didn't expect Napa not only didn't relent, but looked at the giant man with even more disdain and said.
"How can I forget, sixteen years ago, I was captured by the Delong coalition as a hostage, and asked the prince to go to the meeting alone, but the prince really broke into the enemy joint camp alone in order to save me, and killed three in and three out to save me.
"Never forget!?haha...... Pakalis, you also deserve to mention that the prince killed three in and three out to save you? You white-eyed wolf, you said that today's attack on the Feng family by the God-King Alliance is a fatal situation, then I want to ask you, wasn't it a mortal situation when the prince broke into the enemy army camp alone to save you?" Napa asked with a roar.
"This ......"
Pakalis was speechless for a while, because everyone knew that the commander of our army broke into the enemy camp alone, and if he didn't go to die, it was nothing.
"What's the matter? Don't you just say that people are dying, and you won't let you tell the truth? You kind of try to tell me again now. The prince knew that it was a mortal situation, but he still went to save you, you can also ask the other people sitting here now, did the prince say a word of complaining about you before he went to save you...... He hadn't said that a man like him would never say a bad word about his brother even if he died!But what about you? What are you doing now, a real dragger? Are you complaining about the children of your savior? Is your conscience being eaten by dogs?" Napa glared at Pakalis, his eyes red.
The corners of Pakalis's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak when he looked at Napa's eyes, and lowered his head slightly in silence
"Don't say that the third lady hasn't dragged her feet now, even if she really drags her feet at that time, we are not qualified to blame her, because it was all caused by us! Do you think that it feels great and glorious to come to accompany the down-and-out Feng family to live and die together and share hardships, isn't it? That's bullshit, you ask yourself what face you have to meet the prince under Jiuquan...... He was born and died for us so many times, and we, after he died, we didn't give the Feng family any help except for destroying a Zilan, saying that we wanted to protect his bloodline, but his son let us protect him to death, and his daughter let us protect crazy, and we can achieve such an "amazing" achievement after his death, it's really a shame that we can still feel good about ourselves. β
"Is a life worth a lot! If it weren't for the prince, the eight of us would have been reunited in hell countless times, and we couldn't pay off the sins caused by the Feng family with this life, and it's really a shame that you still have the face to say that it was too late to choose the Feng family, if the prince knew about it, he would definitely think that he really fell for eighteen lifetimes of blood mold before he would hand over to us, the brothers who were about to kill his whole family and thought they were shouting about repentance. Napa's expression was strange, crying and laughing, the scars on his face writhing, and the other seven sat quietly in their chairs.
"Whew...... I've scolded enough, you don't want to fight, get out of here now, I won't blame you, I only blame the prince for being blind back then, and saving a few mongrels who are worse than beasts. Napa sat back in her chair, the scar on her face still trembling slightly from the excitement she had just spoken.
Sou!
"Pakalis!"
"Pakalis!"
......
As soon as Napa finished speaking, Pakalis stood up instantly, which startled several other people, thinking that he was really leaving, and shouted one after another.
Pakalis glanced at Napa, and then a rare smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Don't worry, I won't leave, but I feel that I can't talk about any plans while sitting here, I'll go to guard the gate and try to delay a little more when they come to attack." β
As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the gate, but he had not taken a few steps before he suddenly stopped, and Napa, who had his back to him, said, "Napa, maybe you are right, but at least you are wrong...... The prince never thought that any battle was mortal. β
Hearing this, Napa was stunned for a moment and then smiled, looked up at the sky in the distance and said, "I think that if I lose, I will already lose, and I think that if I don't lose, I may not lose, although I know that I owe you a lot, can you bless us again, because to be honest, I am also afraid of death!"
"Alas, there's really no way, they've been alive for so many years anyway, so let's just give those bird soldiers of the God-King Alliance a deep combat lesson this time! Tell them to be careful of the ghosts crawling out of the pile of dead. β
"Lord Wang, you have taught me that people can not measure themselves, but they must not be self-righteous! β
"It seems that there is only one battle!"
"As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, but sometimes the owner has to look at the dog as well, especially if the dog is still a mad dog. β
......
Napa's words aroused everyone's fighting spirit, they are warriors who go in and out of the sea of swords and fires, they are never afraid of death, but they have forgotten the reason for their desperate efforts before, and now they recall that their combat power will not only be doubled, but will be transformed into real ghosts......
