"General. ”

Begonia's voice was calm and soft, as if she was chatting with Lin Shicheng in the most ordinary way. She slowly walked out of the crowd with her infant baby in her arms and walked to Lin Shicheng's side.

"We are waiting for your triumphant return!"

Begonia's eyes scanned everyone, and finally froze on Lin Shicheng's body, and there seemed to be something sparkling in his bright and deep eyes.

Suddenly, there was a burst of warmth between her lips, and the lips that connected to her were her man's. Lin Shicheng kissed the teardrops she had just slipped, and then kissed her thin lips, breathing rapidly, and seemed to be choking.

Then, Lin Shicheng took a few steps back, with a desolate smile on his face, turned around, left, and ran to the Shura battlefield again with those soldiers.

There were only old and weak women and children left in Shuozhou City, and Ye Ningxiang took the royal ladies and some homeless people back to Yiwangfu, waiting for the news of the men who were fighting on the battlefield.

On this night, the cold wind gusted, and the howling north wind blew like a knife on everyone's cheeks. Each of them stood and walked, looking in the direction of the city gates, praying for news of their loved ones.

That night, the soldiers guarding Shuozhou came to the outside of the city one after another to fight, without setting up military tents or resting. They stood proudly in the cold wind, their heads held high, their bodies steady, long knives in their hands, ready for battle, and sent to death.

That night, the enemy's camp was surprisingly quiet. Since deliberately letting them go during the day, so that they can be fortunate enough to return to Shuozhou City to say goodbye to their flesh and blood relatives and close friends, the enemy army seems to have disappeared, and there is no sound at all.

However, the sparkling fires in the distance announced that the enemy army had not left, but was only delaying time not far from them, waiting for their young vitality to run out, freeze, and then die.

Dozens of men suddenly appeared in the Yiwang Mansion, where there should be no more men, dressed in black and wearing masks, who were clearly killers who had infiltrated Shuozhou City since they didn't know when. The killers drew their long knives in a very high-profile manner, and walked towards the Yi Wangfu step by step with sonorous and powerful steps.

Dozens of shiny long knives shone under the bright moonlight, and the knife light revealed made Ye Ningxiang unable to open his eyes. She fumbled and drew her saber in her hand, and rushed into the center of the group of killers in three or two steps, followed by a desperate fight.

Mu Xize, who had long forgotten martial arts, saw Ye Ningxiang in such a situation of no survival, his face was anxious, panicked, and even burst into tears. He still kept calling "lady" in his mouth, and although his body was slashed several times, he still rushed to Ye Ningxiang's side, and used his seemingly clumsy body to resist the attack on Ye Ningxiang.

The people who had taken refuge in the palace panicked and fled in all directions, wailing and crying out in the sky.

In the entire Yiwang Mansion, and even in the entire Shuozhou City, in addition to these sudden killers, the only person who can also do martial arts and fight against the evil forces is Ye Ningxiang.

However, she is only one person, she is just a woman, even if she has learned a lot and understands a lot, a woman is still a woman after all, and she will never live as a man. Even if she was a man, even if she had outstanding martial arts like Wei Xun or Qin Mingyue, how could she save the lives of these hundreds of people in front of her with her own strength?

The wails and cries faded away, or they had fled, or they had become the souls of the killers.

The red, fishy, fresh blood flowed down the bluestone pavement on the ground, lying in the snow that had not yet melted, and the patches of snow white gradually turned red, smaller, and then merged with the blood and disappeared.

Ye Ningxiang roared in a hoarse voice, her face had already been stained with blood, and her jaw was dripping with blood from time to time, I don't know if it was her blood or the killer's blood.

The voice was cruel and heart-wrenching, as if something soft and elastic had been pierced. Ye Ningxiang's eyes widened in surprise, and she turned her head in the direction of the voice, facing Wang Liyue's face.

Her face turned blue, and gulps of blood kept gushing from her mouth, not because she was seriously ill, but because she had a long knife stuck in her chest at some point.

The long knife pierced her back, and the blade exposed in the air turned dark red because of her blood, and fresh blood kept dripping from the tip of the knife, and the blood congealed on the bluestone slab, like countless Hanmei standing proudly.

Wang Liyue blocked behind Ye Ningxiang, and also blocked the long knife that should have stabbed into Ye Ningxiang's chest. It turned out that she gave up her life to save Ye Ningxiang!

"Liyue, Liyue!"

Ye Ningxiang cried bitterly, stunned and frightened came to her heart, she didn't understand, and she didn't dare to think, why would a wicked woman who had targeted herself everywhere in the past sacrifice her life to save herself at such a critical moment of survival?

In the past, Wang Liyue was an enemy of Ye Ningxiang, but now even if they are not enemies, they can only be regarded as acquaintances of Pingshui.

It was this acquaintance who was falling into Ye Ningxiang's arms little by little, his eyes were empty, and his consciousness was gradually dissipating.

"Why? Why do you...... Do you want to do that?"

The violent convulsions made Ye Ningxiang's words intermittent and indistinct.

"yes, I'm ...... Why ...... What about saving you? Finally...... No more...... Bad woman. ”

Wang Liyue's voice was so weak that Ye Ningxiang almost lay on her mouth to hear her words clearly.

When Ye Ningxiang raised her head again and looked at her sadly, her eyes were already closed, and there was a bleak smile on the corner of her mouth. The hand that was originally holding Ye Ningxiang's clothes lost its strength in an instant, and quickly slipped onto the bluestone slab.

Ye Ningxiang let out a long groan, picked up her sword, and desperately attacked the killers around her. These killers have outstanding martial arts, and they can kill Ye Ningxiang soon, but they seem to be deliberately playing a cruel game with Ye Ningxiang, playing with her but not letting her die.

Ye Ningxiang's strength disappeared little by little, the hand holding the sword became trembling, and the blood gushing from the wound on her body made her dizzy, and she finally fell to the ground in full view of everyone.

The killers sneered, effortlessly put the long knife between Mu Xize and Haitang's necks, and escorted them out of King Yi's mansion.

Before leaving, a masked killer said in a sinister tone: "This is the price you pay for Shuozhou." ”

Ye Ningxiang lay on the ground, using all her strength but only moved for half a minute, stretched out her arms and stretched out hard in the direction Mu Xize left, hoping to catch the corner of Mu Xize's clothes.

However, she caught nothing but air. With Mu Xize's desperate call echoing in his ears, Ye Ningxiang closed her eyes, shed bloody tears, and then lost consciousness.

On the second day, when Ye Ningxiang woke up, she had been transferred to the bed by Mo Xiaoqin, and the wounds on her body had been cleaned and bandaged well, although there was still a faint pain when she moved her body, but her spirit was much better than last night.

"Ning Xiang, you finally woke up, scared me to death!"

The thrilling of the whole night made Mo Xiaoqin, who was already in poor health, even more tired, her face haggard, and her body became more stiff.

Ye Ningxiang ignored the painful wound, got up suddenly, and walked towards the outside of the house.

"Xi Ze and Haitang have been taken captive, I have to hurry to save them, the enemy must be threatening General Lin with their lives, and then General Lin will have a hard choice. ”

Ye Ningxiang staggered towards the door, but her legs fell to her knees uncontrollably, and the person also fell.

Mo Xiaoqin walked up to Ye Ningxiang with difficulty and helped her up, her face full of melancholy.

"You are in such bad health now, how can you still rescue King Ning and Haitang? General Lin already knows about King Ning and Haitang, and I believe he will definitely find a solution. ”

"No, I have to go to the city gates, I have to save them. ”

Ye Ningxiang struggled to get up, and slowly walked out of Yiwang's Mansion step by step. Suddenly, someone grabbed her arm, a soft, seemingly mutilated hand. Mo Xiaoqin struggled to keep up with Ye Ningxiang, holding her arm, just smiling slightly, and didn't say too much.

The two of them walked towards the Shuozhou City Gate.

On this day, the weather was overcast and breathless, and large expanses of inky clouds filled every gap in the sky, and the pressure became lower and lower, as if it was about to fall. It was still morning, and it was already dark on the battlefield, as if it was night.

Lin Shicheng rode a white horse, standing in front of the sergeant, majestic and solemn, but his heart was so painful that he lost consciousness. Last night, the news that his wife had been kidnapped by the masked man in black along with King Ning quickly reached his ears.

Now, the enemy army has reappeared in front of him, it must be some means by which they transported Haitang and King Ning to the enemy's military camp. The enemy army appeared at this moment in order to threaten him with their lives and force him to order the surrender of King Duan.

He won't surrender, and he doesn't want Begonia to die, how should this unanswered choice end in the end?

He didn't know the answer, and he didn't dare to imagine all the possible scenarios, his grip on the long knife tightened, and a layer of sweat soaked from his forehead.

"General Lin, abandon the city and surrender! You know, we've taken two extremely important hostages, and if you surrender, we'll release them immediately. ”

An enemy officer rode up to General Lin on a tall horse with a smug face, his words full of contempt and threat.

The knife fell from his hand, not his knife, but Lin Shicheng's, and it was nothing else that rolled to the ground, it was his head. His eyes widened and his mouth wide open, as if he had something to say that he had yet to say.

The enemy was furious, pushing and shoving all the way to the front of the army, bringing Mu Xize and Haitang, who were tightly tied with iron chains, to the front of the army.

The moment he saw Begonia, Lin Shicheng's cold face could no longer be cold, and his eyes turned red uncontrollably.

How should he choose, does he really want to see the love of his life die tragically in front of him? How can he, a dignified seven-foot man, a hero who defends his family and the country, and makes meritorious contributions, put his woman under the iron hooves of the enemy, let others ravage him, and even let others kill him!

Is there really no better way?

His soldiers looked at him in despair, and there seemed to be pleading in their eyes, begging him to give up Shuozhou, to give up his dignity, to give up his autonomy to survive.

"It seems that this rumored Lin Shicheng, who values love and righteousness, is also a ruthless and unrighteous person. Tut-tut, it's a pity that his flowery wife and my brother, who has lost his mind!"

Mu Jinghong dismounted, pretended to be very sorry and walked to them, and then glanced at the soldiers behind them. The soldier immediately understood, and the long knife around the necks of the two of them was brought closer to their necks, and even a bloody mark had been made.

"General. ”

Haitang almost tried all his strength to shout at Lin Shicheng not far away, his voice hoarse, but full of affection.

"Promise me to live well. ”
