Chapter 36: The Crisis

Xuanyuan Hao led hundreds of people into the dense forest, and after walking for about a mile, Xuanyuan Hao looked back at those soldiers, all of them were scarred, their faces were earthy, and their steps were vain.

"Take a break. Xuanyuan Hao stopped, and blood oozed from the wound that had just been stitched up.

After listening to Xuanyuan Hao's words, the soldiers' tense bodies relaxed, and they sat down on the spot to deal with their wounds.

Xuanyuan Hao leaned against the big tree, his eyes staring closely around, and he was always on high alert. Although they escaped from Fu Qianqiu's ambush, they couldn't take it lightly.

At this time, many soldiers of the Zhenguo Army fell to the ground one by one, convulsing all over, and their mouths kept spitting out white foam.

"It's... What's going on?" Xiao Ran was shocked, and immediately ran over to help the soldiers up, only to find that the bones of the fallen soldiers seemed to be gone.

"How can this be!" Xuanyuan Hao frowned, most of the people fell to the ground, how can this be good?

"This is the poisonous miasma of Wild Wolf Mountain, Xuanyuan Hao, aren't you known as unparalleled in the world? Being forced to such a point by Fu Qianqiu is really impressive, hehe..."

At this moment, there was a burst of disdainful laughter above everyone's heads, accompanied by contemptuous words, which made Xuanyuan Hao's face change.

Shi Mengyan felt that this voice was very familiar, and followed the voice, only to see Qiu Yueyin standing on the trunk of the tree, her sharp gaze fixed on her, Qiu Yueyin smiled softly at her twice, and her body jumped and landed in front of Xuanyuan Hao.

"Qiu Yueyin, what are you doing?" Xiao Ran raised his long sword and stared at Qiu Yueyin tightly. As long as he makes any moves, Xiao Ran will definitely take a step ahead of him.

Qiu Yueyin didn't look at Xiao Ran at all, but moved her gaze to Xuanyuan Hao, who had a gloomy face, and her face became very indifferent.

Surprisingly, Qiu Yueyin didn't mean to fight with Xuanyuan Hao at all, but pointed to her left, and said to Xuanyuan Hao, "Xuanyuan Hao, go in this direction, and you can walk out of this poisonous forest in another three miles and reach halfway up the mountain, there are no ambushes there, believe it or not!"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ran and Shi Mengyan were immediately very surprised in their hearts, they never thought that Qiu Yueyin would show them the way. It stands to reason that Qiu Yueyin and Xuanyuan Hao belong to an indissoluble feud, and they are so kind to show them the way, if they don't find it with their conscience, it is... There is a conspiracy!

The two of them looked at Xuanyuan Hao in unison, as if waiting for his decision.

"Let's go!" Xuanyuan Hao shouted, and really led the soldiers in the direction that Qiu Yueyin pointed.

"Wait a minute!" Qiu Yueyin stopped Xuanyuan Hao, looking at his expressionless face, Qiu Yueyin's eyes changed, and he said, "Aren't you afraid that there is an ambush there?"

"If you want to kill me, you won't let Fu Qianqiu do it!" Xuanyuan Hao said with great certainty, he respected Qiu Yueyin's feelings for Shi Mengyan, and he believed that even though Qiu Yueyin wanted to kill him, he would not hurt Shi Mengyan.

"Haha.. Here you go!" Qiu Yueyin threw over a package, and from it there was a strong medicinal fragrance, which should be used to treat the smoke miasma poison.

Xuanyuan Hao looked at the package in his hand, arched his hand to Qiu Yueyin, and said sincerely, "Thank you, but you and I still have to fight on the battlefield in the coming day!"

Qiu Yueyin turned around and took a few steps, heard Xuanyuan Hao's words, paused under her feet, turned her head slightly, her cold gaze shot out a terrifying light, and said coldly, "Don't thank me, everything I do is for Sister Yan." As for you, we can only be enemies in this life!"

He is right, everything he does is for the sake of Shi Mengyan. If Xuanyuan Hao died, Shi Mengyan would definitely be heartbroken, which was definitely not what he wanted to see, so he could help Xuanyuan Hao get through the immediate danger.

But the two of them can definitely only stand on opposite sides in this life, even if they don't have Shi Mengyan.

After Qiu Yueyin finished speaking, she glanced at Shi Mengyan and jumped into the shadow, disappearing in the dense forest.

Xuanyuan Hao's gaze changed secretly, and then he began to move out of the dense forest with the remnants of the centaurs.

The medicine given by Qiu Yueyin really worked, Xuanyuan Hao ordered the soldiers to rub the medicine under their noses, the rich medicinal fragrance was inhaled by the soldiers, and the smoke miasma and poisonous gas in the dense forest were already useless to them.

After walking for an hour, the front was already much brighter than just now, Xuanyuan Hao stopped, and Xiao Ran immediately moved forward quickly to investigate.

Although Qiu Yueyin will not harm Shi Mengyan, they still have to be cautious. They are like rats now, and they must always be wary of the scheming old cat Fu Qianqiu.

And Fu Qianqiu also sent people to carefully search the whereabouts of Xuanyuan Hao and others in the forest, and at the same time asked Mo Shoucheng to lead the soldiers to guard the intersection and water source of the mountain.

On the other hand, in the Quicksand Valley station, Lu Xuancheng received the information sent back by Fu Qianqiu, and his frowning brows gradually relaxed, and he immediately called someone to discuss.

"The military advisor has trapped Xuanyuan Hao in Wild Wolf Mountain, this is a good opportunity to kill Xuanyuan Hao, which of you is willing to lead the army to Wild Wolf Mountain to support?" Lu Xuancheng sat at the top, looked at the generals below, and spoke.

"Dashuai, the last general is willing to go!" Qi Yuezhao stood up and said respectfully to Lu Xuancheng.

Lu Xuancheng ignored him, but looked at the two middle-aged generals beside Qi Yuezhao, and said in a deep voice, "General Xu, you two should take a trip!"

"The last general commands!" General Xu, a man in his fifties, heard Lu Xuancheng's order, straightened up like an iron tower, his eyes widened, and said loudly, "Xu Shengtian will live up to the expectations of the marshal!"

"Okay.." Lu Xuancheng nodded.

Qi Yuezhao was secretly dissatisfied in her heart, Lu Xuancheng was clearly despising him. Even if Yue Scar is not there, Lu Xuancheng, as a generation of famous generals, is really unacceptable to bully a junior like this.

Qi Yuezhao didn't know that Lu Xuancheng was doing this for his own good, and it was also for the sake of the overall situation. Although Qi Yuezhao's martial arts skills are good, his conceit is unacceptable, and if he is allowed to lead the troops, he may mess everything up.

He also has to contain Xuanyuan Hao's army and can't leave here, so he must send a confidant general he trusts to go, and he must make Xuanyuan Hao hate Wolf Mountain.

"Qi Yuezhao, you immediately lead people to ambush, and stop Xu Moyin from listening to the news at all costs, and cut off all Xuanyuan Hao's back roads!" Lu Xuancheng slapped the table and immediately passed on his order.

After Qi Yuezhao listened, she walked out of the handsome tent with a gloomy face.

On the other hand, Huang Lao, who was stationed in Panshan, also received news from Fu Qianqiu, and was just about to arrange people to support Wild Wolf Mountain, but he didn't expect that Liang Zhentian's army had actually arrived under Panshan.

In fact, Liang Zhentian didn't know that Xuanyuan Hao was besieged, but Liang Mengchen sent a message to him to attack Panshan, so he went.

Huang Lao had no choice but to stay put, and replied to Fu Qianqiu to tell him about the situation in Panshan.

For a while, the calm battlefield was surging again, and Xu Moyin sat in the tent, secretly beating drums in his heart. In the morning, he didn't receive a single message about Xuanyuan Hao, and he was always worried that something would happen.

"Second brother, is there any movement on the other side?" Xu Moyin looked at Zheng Guanying who walked in and asked.

"No, Lu Xuancheng doesn't know how to do it, there has been no movement at all in the past few days. Zheng Guanying shook his head and sat beside him, wiping the mountain and river knife on his waist.

"Hmm..."Xu Moyin looked at the map and muttered again. Maybe he was too careful, but he didn't dare to have any negligence, and immediately asked Zheng Guanying to send a team of people to pick up Xuanyuan Hao.

As soon as the people and horses went out, they made a detour to the direction of Wild Wolf Mountain, and as soon as they walked out of less than ten miles, they were intercepted by Qi Yuezhao and his people.

Without any nonsense, Qi Yuezhao vented all the dissatisfaction in his heart on those soldiers, drawing halberds to split, pick, sweep, and stab, like chopping melons and vegetables, killing all the hundred and ten people.

"Clean up the corpse and bury these blood stains with soil!" Qi Yuezhao wiped his weapon, then rode back to his camp to report to Lu Xuancheng.

This plan can be described as seamless, even if Xu Moyin is alert, it is impossible to save Xuanyuan Hao.

On Wild Wolf Mountain, Xuanyuan Hao led the people to finally walk to the exit of the dense forest. At this time, Xiao Ran, who went to investigate, also came back, and explained the situation outside to Xuanyuan Hao in general, and his face was very heavy.

"It looks like we're surrounded!" Xuanyuan Hao said in a deep voice, looking at the less than five hundred soldiers around him, and a feeling of powerlessness welled up in his heart.

"Without food, without water, we will die of thirst and starvation, if not killed by the rebels outside. Xiao Ran sighed and said helplessly.

This is the most intractable problem at the moment, with no food or water available. These 500 people, if not killed, will die in the end, and most of them are still wounded.

"Let's take one step at a time, let's go to a high place first, and build a few fortifications there first..."Xuanyuan Hao's thoughts were chaotic, he looked at the sun, and then said to Xiao Ran, "You take someone to collect stones and rolling wood, just in case you need it!"

"Good!"

Xiao Ran nodded, and began to go to the mountain with more than a hundred people, followed by Xuanyuan Hao and the others.

Halfway up the mountain, Xuanyuan Hao saw that the surrounding terrain was dangerous, and ordered to build fortifications here, and at this time, Xiao Ran also came back with more than 100 people, all with tired faces.

"I hope Moyin will soon find out about the news here, or we will be in danger. Xiao Ran and Xuanyuan Hao sat together, looking at the fading sun, and said worriedly.

Xuanyuan Hao didn't speak, his fists were secretly clenched tightly, and he was also very worried.

It's a joke to rely on this simple fortification and a few hundred remnants to support too much time, if there are no reinforcements, Wild Wolf Mountain may be the place where he is buried!

"Brother, do you regret going on this trip with me?" Xuanyuan Hao looked at Xiao Ran and suddenly asked.

Xiao Ran glanced at him, a smile appeared on Sven Junxiu's face, tidied up the corners of his folded clothes, and said, "You spent so much money on me last time, I won't let you go even if I die, I will definitely have to find you to get it back." ”

"Ha, good brother!" Xuanyuan Hao patted Xiao Ran on the shoulder vigorously, among these brothers, except for Xu Moyin, only Xiao Ran and Xuanyuan Hao had the best relationship.

Xiao Ran was not what he is now, he was born in the Xiao family, one of the great families of the Rongwujiang Dynasty, and he was also the son of the Xiao family.

When he was most frustrated, it was Xuanyuan Hao who gave him help, giving him a chance to take revenge and a chance to pick up the weapon in his hand from scratch, so the relationship between Xiao Ran and Xuanyuan Hao was a little deeper than others.

Xu Moyin's loyalty to Xuanyuan Hao was due to Xuanyuan Hao's unconditional trust in him, while Xiao Ran was not.

At the foot of the Wild Wolf Mountain, Fu Qianqiu sat in the carriage, looking at the news from Huang Lao, his fierce eyes trembled a few times. Until now, he has really looked at Liang Mengchen differently.

There was such a great figure hidden among the three great sons of the Rongwujiang Dynasty, Fu Qianqiu suddenly felt that his vision was so short-sighted, that is, to kill Xuanyuan Hao, Liang Mengchen was also a great enemy.

"The future is terrifying, are we really old?"

Fu Qianqiu laughed self-deprecatingly, in fact, he was not the only blind person, Sima Tianqiu also caused him to be in such a tricky situation today because he despised Liang Mengchen.

After thinking about it carefully, Fu Qianqiu's eyes suddenly lit up, and a few smiles appeared on his face.

"It seems that Liang Mengchen knows Xuanyuan Hao's current situation, so he let Liang Zhentian attack Panshan, so that Huang Lao can be contained, and secondly, it also blocks the news that Xuanyuan Hao is besieged. ”

Fu Qianqiu is worthy of being a generation of world-famous wise men, and he figured out the ins and outs of these things in an instant, but he couldn't imagine what Liang Mengchen's purpose was in doing this?

"No matter what the purpose is, the situation is still very favorable to us at the moment, seize this opportunity, Xuanyuan Hao will be doomed!"

He didn't care what Liang Mengchen's purpose was in doing this, he just wanted Xuanyuan Hao to die!

The sun is thin, the golden red light of the sunset shines on the woods on both sides of the Fengjiang River, and suddenly, the maple forests on both sides of the river are like a raging fire, reflected in the river water, as if a circle of blood-colored ripples are spreading.

Meng Tianchen stood on the riverbank with his hands in his hands, and his eyes were vast and vast. Behind him, Liang Mengchen, who was dressed in purple, stood quietly, looking at a game of chess beside Meng Tianchen, his face was a little abnormal.

"Fourth brother, isn't this heart-casting bureau too cruel to Xuanyuan Hao?" Liang Mengchen looked at the long figure of the dream and said in a deep voice.

"It's not enough.." Meng Tianchen shook his head and said cruelly, "With Xu Moyin by his side all these years, his arrogance is too strong, and he needs to lose something in order to grow stronger!"

This is the price he has to pay if he wants to compete in the world, and the world is not something that anyone can take if he wants to. And I'm not someone who wants to invite it. He wants me to give advice, I want to rely on him for revenge, and we have to give something to each other, so that this relationship of interest will be stable!"

Meng Tianchen turned around, looked at Liang Mengchen and said, "Third brother, I want to sweep the world within three years, he is still too weak now." ”

"Alas... Actually, I quite like Xuanyuan Hao. Liang Mengchen stuck out his tongue, patted Mengtianchen's shoulder and said, "Let it go!"

"Hmm..."Meng Tianchen nodded, and took the sunspot off the chessboard, and there was no more such a piece on this game of chess from then on.
