After once again blocking the imperial army's attack, Diao Si was not too happy. As the sun gradually set, the sky was gradually dyed red. Diao Si could only see such a scene in midsummer before.
It was getting dark, and the blazing sun finally disappeared among the distant ridges. The wind became stronger, which was caused by the change in temperature. Diao Si paid closer attention to the situation of the imperial troops. It seemed that the woman had gone back to sleep. She had been in there for a long time without overdoing it.
The imperial troops on the mountainside lit a fire under the arrangement of the captains, huddled next to the fire, and guarded the mountain pass here. It seems that they will not relax, at least not now. Diao Si and the others must withstand the cold first.
The fire they lit was also beneficial to Diao Si, because he could use the firelight to see the situation of the surrounding imperial troops and know their actions well. On the contrary, it is difficult for the Imperial Army to grasp the situation above them because it is pitch dark above.
Turning around to look at those long-eared guys, I didn't expect that they had already stopped and hid together to avoid the cold wind. They should be starting to get hungry again, and with the weather like this, it's no wonder they do.
But no wonder it didn't mean he had to give in. Diao Si was not soft-hearted at all. He scolded those long-eared guys again and asked them to continue moving rocks. Those guys with long ears must have resentment in their hearts. Diao Si wants them to work in such an environment. In fact, Diao Si wants them to use physical labor to ward off the cold.
It's just that there aren't many stones to be found on this top of the mountain, because it is originally composed of some huge stones. If it were made entirely of rubble, it would have collapsed a long time ago. Those long-eared guys had no choice but to move the stones around in a pretentious manner.
Although the light was insufficient, Diao Si could see it, but he saw through it but did not tell the truth, and continued to pay attention to the situation of the imperial troops below.
Many of the imperial troops surrounding the fire were already drowsy, but they were right on the opposite side of the mountain road. Diao Si could not take the risk like this, because as long as one imperial troop discovered them and woke up the others, They are about to suffer.
How to do it? It was uncomfortable to see them resting warmly around the fire and thinking, because his soldiers were suffering from hunger and cold, and he must not let these enemies get too comfortable.
He thought for a while and came up with a strange idea. He ordered his soldiers to pick some gravel among the stones and throw them at the Imperial soldiers. Large rocks cannot be thrown far, but small rocks are different, especially when thrown from high places. It is not a problem for more than 100 meters.
Soon some imperial troops who were hit started shouting, but they didn't know what was going on at first because they couldn't see Diao Si's position. Later they gradually understood and some captains shouted loudly to Diao Si above. They cursed, but their curses could not stop the gravel attack.
Such an attack would not kill many Imperial soldiers, but the harassment would be quite large, because those Imperial soldiers could not sit there and keep warm knowing that they were in danger.
After a while, the woman finally showed up again. She had taken off all the silver armor on her body, but because of the distance and light, Diao Si could only see her tall figure. This woman was very strong.
She scolded the captains severely and went back to the tent to rest. She was hiding in the tent like this, maybe because she was really afraid of the cold outside, or maybe she was just pretending, just to make Diao Si take it lightly.
However, after the bitch commander scolded them, the captains arranged the soldiers to the rugged mountains far away from Diao Si and the others, and then lit three large fires around the mountain crossing of Diao Si and the others, burning the The surroundings were illuminated to prevent Diao Si and the others from escaping secretly.
This move is also quite good. Now Diao Si and the others have no chance. Now that the imperial troops can't be hit by throwing stones, they can rest comfortably around the fire, while Diao Si's soldiers have to continue to resist the imperial troops. The weather is getting colder.
How to do it? Seeing the soldiers trembling with cold, Diao Si felt uncomfortable. But they didn't even have anything to burn here, so Diao Si had no choice but to arrange for them to find a place where the wind was not so strong to huddle together.
Now that the imperial army cannot see the situation above, and due to the weather, they should not attack suddenly, but Diao Si can't help but be anxious. If the woman really doesn't want to attack again, then she should Diao Si's troops are trapped to death.
what to do? Except for the road leading to the mountainside in front, the other three sides of this mountain are steep cliffs, which are impossible to climb down. It was really going to be doomed now. Sitting in front of the mountain road, Diao Si found that there was still a little bit of warmth here because of the fire on the mountainside below.
At this time, the wind seemed to have gradually stopped, the weather was getting colder, and Diao Si fell asleep unknowingly.
Hateful, I didn’t expect that the woman who was well guarded on the mountainside was attacked by that woman alone. Recalling her previous heroic appearance and her gorgeous marksmanship, Diao Si suddenly thought of something, if he could also If he is as powerful as this woman, coupled with his strategic expertise, he will be even more impeccable.
Just think about it, if Diao Si was that strong, he could easily escape from here today. But how can we be as powerful as that old woman? Diao Si doesn't have the physique like her, and he doesn't understand her skills...
"You can't learn her skills with your physique..." Diao Si woke up from another familiar voice and found that the white-haired old man was already sitting next to him.
"Old guy, why are you here again? Oh, I think I understand. You want to take this thing back, right? But this thing was given to me by someone else. If you take it away, I will have nothing. , if you really want to take it away, just take me away too." Diao thought about his current situation, feeling really sad.
"Is it really that important to you?" The old man looked at Diao Si with wide eyes.
Diao Si hesitated for a moment. He felt that the old man seemed to be a little sympathetic to him, so he responded: "Of course, it is more important than my life. It is my only support. How can I live without it. "
Unexpectedly, the old man looked very happy after hearing this. He winked for a while and then continued to say to Diao Si: "You are really good at talking... Well, this is also a kind of fate."
Diao Si looked at his expression and suddenly felt a little happy, hoping that some miracle would happen, but she didn't expect that he suddenly disappeared again.
"Damn it, since you old man is here, why don't you stay a little longer? I still have something to ask you. I'm in trouble right now..." Diao Si said as he looked around, but the old man Has disappeared without a trace.
"Boy, your physique cannot learn such skills, but there are other things that are suitable for you, because your mind is more flexible." It was the old man's voice, it seemed to ring in his ears, but Diao Si Can't see him.
"What is it? Damn it, can't you teach me before leaving?" Diao Si continued to ask, but the old man didn't speak anymore. He had really left.
I originally thought something strange would happen, but in the end I was just woken up by the old man. Moreover, it was even colder at this time, and Diao Si couldn't help but sneeze, causing his tears to flow.
Don't be too cold. The woman below will not take him to the doctor. Diao Si stood up and started to do palm pressure. He exercised to warm up his body, otherwise he would really freeze.
However, outside the area of the three fires, the weather was extremely cold. My fingers were immediately numb, and my ears, face, and lips were terrible. The temperature could be dozens of degrees below zero. Diao Si had to run to those long-eared guys who were huddled together to get some warmth.
It's really terrible. How can this go on? It's going to freeze people to death. Diao Si struggled to squeeze into the guys with long ears, and then his fingers gradually started to feel a little bit.
No, this is the best opportunity. Those imperial troops below the mountainside definitely don't want to leave the fire. Maybe they don't want to get up and chase them even if they see them running down. They need to understand the situation of the imperial troops.
Thinking of this, Diao Si wanted to see the Imperial Army again, but it was so cold outside that he really didn't want to leave these long-eared guys. (To be continued)
