"Do you really just want to give it a try, or do you want to become a legendary hero?" Qi Zhuji glanced at Lin Yi, "Are you sure there is no problem with your mentality?"

"You think I'm going to be stupid all of a sudden? Of course I can't die. ”

Lin Yi rolled his eyes, but he was not in the mood to joke or quarrel with Qi Zhuji.

He could understand very well why Qi Zhuji would say such words, for a battlefield where tens of thousands of troops were fighting, the strength of several cultivators was too small, and if there was no absolutely suitable opportunity, their adventure would be no different from a moth to a fire. Some people are usually very calm and have correct judgment, but in some extreme environments, their mentality may be unbalanced, and there will be some unimaginable changes.

Qi Zhuji didn't continue Lin Yi's words, he was silent for a breath, and then bowed seriously to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Even if it's a farewell, there's no need to be so formal, it makes me feel like I won't be able to come back if I go." ”

"If you want to go, as soon as possible. ”

Qi Zhuji didn't say anything to him again, just turned around and walked towards the location of the heavy cavalry.

The emotions in his heart at this time were a little complicated, and even he couldn't explain his emotions clearly.

The real magnates in this world never feel that they are ordinary people, and they will never allow themselves to think about things like ordinary people.

The most important thing for the powerful to consider is their interests.

So almost all the magnates are cold-blooded animals.

Qi Zhuji originally thought that since he was in such a position, he must also need to think about the problem in such a cold-blooded manner, and in many things, he felt that he would be very indifferent and more rational.

However, when Lin Yi made such a choice at this moment, although he didn't feel that this was a must-do in his heart, he inexplicably had more respect for Lin Yi.

The battle of tens of thousands of troops around a big city cannot end quickly, even if the city is breached, it may be that for the Northern Wei army, the street fighting and cleaning will last for a long time, and a few cultivators will break away from such a convoy and rush quickly, so in Lin Yi's opinion, even if the Daoist city is broken, it may be a very probable event, but if he rushes with all his strength, he will catch up with the end of the battle.

Since Qi Zhuji could guarantee to convince these heavy riders, and with the Qi family's divine mind enshrined here, he didn't have to think about these miscellaneous matters.

After explaining some things to Xue Jiu and the others, Lin Yi and Bai Yuelu and the other four set off again with one person and two horses, galloping into the night.

"What if you're unlucky this time and really die?"

Shortly after leaving the camp, it seemed that she didn't want to be too silent on the way, Bai Yuelu straightened her hair that was blown by the wind, and turned her head to ask Lin Yi, "Will you regret it?"

"If it's unlucky, it's fate, and there's nothing to regret. Lin Yi said.

"Just curious, small talk by the way. ”

The galloping military horse is naturally very bumpy, and the strong wind blowing in the face will also make people very uncomfortable when talking, but Bai Yuelu doesn't care at all, her face is very calm, and there is really no difference from the usual chat, "You are not from the Zhongzhou Army, and you can't say how loyal and sincere you love the current emperor, and there is no reason to work for him." In my opinion, you don't value fame and fortune very much, military exploits seem to be very indifferent, and you also know that you may only have the possibility of meeting your parents if you live north...... What makes you fight so almost selflessly?"

Even if it's a real small talk, it's a question worth pondering.

Lin Yi thought about it seriously, then he turned his face away and asked, "Do you know that those generals of the border army are the last thing they want to do and what is the same errand?"

Bai Yuelu shook her head.

"It's writing a letter of consolation and giving out a pension. ”

Lin Yi smiled sneeringly, he turned his head to look at the black sky in the distance in front of him, and said, "Many of my father's subordinates are not afraid of any hard battles, but they are afraid to write letters to the families of those fallen sergeants and tell them that their sons, brothers, or fathers have died in battle. Especially when the generals who came to the door to give such a letterhead at the end, and went to the homes of the fallen soldiers to ask for some pensions... All people are afraid to do such a thing. ”

"I remember the Yongzhou War, which my father also participated in in the previous dynasty, in which more than 400,000 people from the north and south participated in the war, and many people died. ”

After a pause, Lin Yi took a deep breath and slowly continued: "I lived in Jiangxia County at the time, which can be regarded as the edge of the Northern Defense Zone, and nearly half of Jiangxia County at that time were military personnel, many of whom were family members of officers and soldiers in the army, and some were recruited porters, as well as folk girls who sewed clothes and armor. For nearly half a year, every day, the generals of the armies on the front line came to the city with letterheads notifying them of their deaths. For half a year, the whole city was filled with weeping. ”

"I was very young, and there was an old woman who was doing laundry at home, and she was still doing laundry when the letter arrived... I will never forget the moment when the letter informing her of her son's death reached her. ”

Lin Yi fell silent.

He was silent for a long time before he said: "So I think differently from many people, many people are fighting for the emperor and their military exploits, but in my opinion, this is the war of every Southern Dynasties. ”

"You are very kind. ”

Bai Yuelu took a deep breath, and she made a heartfelt evaluation.

She understood more and more why Yuan Yan had a lot of incomprehensible emotions towards Lin Yi, and even some beyond normal reason, in her opinion, Yuan Yan and Lin Yi were basically the same kind of people.

......

The night fades and the sun rises.

Four people, eight horses, all the way towards Daoren City.

Lin Yi didn't even give the horses much time to rest, because according to the route, when the horses reached their limit, they would not be far from Daoren City.

Near noon, a shower suddenly fell, and after the time of half a burnt incense, the shower stopped, completely cleared, the dark clouds in the sky dissipated, and the whole world was completely brightened.

Along with the rainbow in the distance, there were many columns of smoke in their sight.

Lin Yi drove his horse up a mound that was not too high, he straightened up on the horse's back and looked over, vaguely seeing the outline of Daoren City.

Some of the fortress towns scattered around Daoren City were already like extinguished bonfires in his sight, and Daoren City at this time was the source of countless pillars of smoke.

Countless places in the city are burning.

At such a distance, even the sergeants on the walls seemed to be smaller than ants, and he could not see them clearly.

But in some of the pillars of smoke, he could clearly see some bright flames shining.

Some of the streamers were even clearer than the lightning in the night, giving him a sense of extreme intensity.
