When he arrived at the shore, Tang Ma docked the boat on the dock, waved his hand and said, "Master Suo, please get on the road!"

Suo Long staggered off the boat, hugged his fists and said: "Marshal Tang, please tell Duan Gongzi and Zuo Gongzi that the Qing army will soon send Duoduo to lead the troops south, so that they can prepare early." ”

Tang Ma smiled: "Thank you!" rowed back to Lingzhi Island.

Sauron traveled all the way north, feeling extremely depressed. Originally, he thought that the people of the Central Plains had become like a group of soulless walking corpses because they were persecuted by the government, and they had completely become barbarians who could be slaughtered by others, and such a nation could frighten her as long as they left a few drops of blood, but today's war made him see a completely different group of people, even though these people had rudimentary weapons and foul language, but they had high morale and firm beliefs, and did not hesitate to defend their territory and dignity with their lives. The more he walked, the more desperate he felt, and he finally realized that such an awakened, fearless people could not be conquered by force. He felt the bleakness of his future, and before he left Hubei, he drew his sword and killed himself on a barren beach.

The Zhentian Army achieved unprecedented results in this battle, destroying nearly 80,000 troops on Lingzhi Island, including more than 15,000 elite troops of the Eight Banners, and countless materials were captured. The leaders of Lingzhi Island were all wiped out, except for the missing Liancheng Yu, the painting, and the Lishu, as well as Peng Xianguo, who took advantage of the chaos to escape, and the red-armored warriors. The strength of the Zhentian Army has been further expanded, not only the total strength of the army has reached nearly 200,000, but also has a powerful naval army, becoming the only powerful force in the green forest today. The whole island laughed and laughed, completely immersed in the joy of victory.

Because the main body of the Zhentian Army was still a land force, at night, Duan Hongyu and the leaders camped outside Lingzhi Island to prevent the enemy from sneaking up.

It was already very late at night, and Duan Hongyu was sitting in the camp thinking about his next move on a map, when he suddenly heard a "whoosh" in front of the camp, and then the figure disappeared in a flash. He was secretly surprised, and immediately recognized this person as the person who had given him the map that day, and hurriedly chased him out of the camp, only to see a dark shadow flying out of the camp in front of him. Looking at the figure, it turned out to be a woman. She was so light that she rose into the air like a wisp of smoke.

Duan Hongyu shouted loudly: "Senior, stay!"

The woman did not answer, but swept forward.

Duan Hongyu hurriedly followed her.

The two men walked one after the other, and soon they came to a high mountain a few miles away, and the woman stopped in front of an ancient pine.

Duan Hongyu was also busy stabilizing his figure, only to see that there were only a few sparse trees on the top of the mountain, and there was a cliff in front of him. The starlight is dim, the ancient trees are forested, and it looks cold and mysterious.

The woman turned her back to Duan Hongyu and remained motionless, as if she were a clay sculpture.

Duan Hongyu waited for a long time, but he didn't see her speak, so he asked tentatively, "Senior, why did you want to lead the general here?"

The woman remained unmoved, and it took a long time to turn around. Although her face was covered with a thin veil, Duan Hongyu still recognized her at a glance as the Golden Lock Qilin Liancheng Jade, and couldn't help but exclaim, "It turned out to be you!" Quickly reached out and drew his sword.

Lian Chengyu smiled: "Duan Gongzi, I didn't expect it!"

Duan Hongyu didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the Liancheng jade gourd, so he didn't answer.

Lian Chengyu said: "You don't have to be nervous, I brought you here, there is no malice." ”

Duan Hongyu's hand never let go of the hilt of the sword.

Lian Chengyu said: "You tell the truth, if you don't have my map, can you break through Lingzhi Island?"

Duan Hongyu said: "Even if there is no map, my Zhentian Army can still capture Lingzhi Island, but the casualties may be greater!"

Lian Chengyu said: "What if you add me?"

Duan Hongyu was silent for a moment, he knew better than anyone that this military operation was forced by the situation and took a huge risk, but fortunately, the other party's commander Suo Long was not able to fight in the water, if he was replaced by a hero in the water like Lian Chengyu, the Zhentian Army might not be able to retreat with his whole body.

Lian Chengyu said: "It's not me bragging, if I command this naval army, whether you or Zuo Hanbing, you are not an opponent." ”

Although Duan Hongyu was reluctant, he had to admit that if Lian Chengyu was here, it would be really difficult to say who would die in today's battle, and he said puzzledly: "I'm not in vain, in such a critical battle, why didn't you make a move, but in turn to help us?"

Lian Chengyu didn't answer, took out the belly of the two children from his pocket and threw it to Duan Hongyu.

Duan Hongyu took a look, and saw that one of them was the one that Tie Bingxin showed him outside Erlong Mountain, and the other was embroidered with an egret bird flying with wings spread on it, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "It turns out that you ...... You are the daughter of Uncle Tie, the lost sister of the Iron Maiden, Lin'er?"

Lian Chengyu said: "You didn't expect it!"

Duan Hongyu only felt cold all over, he really didn't expect this to be the end, and asked, "Where have you been for so many years?"

Lian Chengyu said: "Shi Yuzhen snatched me away and hid in a small mountain village, where there is still an old man, Liu Yingquan. ”

Duan Hongyu said: "Is it Liu Banxian?"

Lian Chengyu said: "It's this person! Shi Yuzhen hates my family to the core, and changes her ways to kill me, you look at my body." With that, Lian Chengyu turned around, revealing his back.

Duan Hongyu saw several large clusters of peony flowers tattooed on Lianchengyu's back, and after a closer look, he found that those peony flowers were not tattooed, but scars, and he exclaimed in surprise.

Lian Chengyu put down his coat and said, "What woman would want to tattoo these things on her body? It's just because the injuries on my body are so serious that I have to use these tattoos to cover up." Later, Liu Yingquan saw that I was really pitiful, so he secretly gave me to a woman named Aunt Wu. ”

Duan Hongyu said, "Why don't you go to Uncle Tie and Miss Tie?"

Lian Chengyu said: "I was only five years old when I left home, I was too young to remember at all, and I didn't know what my parents' names were, but I vaguely remembered that my sister's milk name was Lu'er." In order to deceive me, Shi Yuzhen once put two heads in front of me that were exactly the same as my father and sister. I was scared and fainted, thinking it was real. ”

Duan Hongyu gritted his teeth and said, "Shi Yuzhen is really hateful. ”

Liancheng Yu said: "I relied on Aunt Wu for my life together, and learned some martial arts from her, but Aunt Wu had many enemies in the rivers and lakes, and Aunt Wu was seriously injured in a vicious fight, so I began to wander around the rivers and lakes." I was only eight or nine years old, lonely, begging for food, and suffering from the bullying of bad children and the eyes of the world. ”

Duan Hongyu said secretly: "She urinated so much in the rivers and lakes, and the suffering she has suffered can be imagined, so it seems that the Iron Maiden is much happier." ”

Lian Chengyu sighed: "It should also be my fate to have this catastrophe, one night, I was about to freeze to death in front of an ancient temple, and was rescued by a middle-aged swordsman who happened to pass there, and later I learned that this person was the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom, Tiancong Khan, Emperor Taiji." ”
