Hua Zhi looked at the rooftop. This was the only effortless action she made at this moment. "It's different. If I was powerless, I would stay at home and not leave the capital. But I have the ability to protect myself, so I chose to go south in person to make this deal happen to the best of my liking."
Maybe it was because of the injury, but at this moment Hua Zhi suddenly felt overwhelmed with longing, and her voice sounded hoarse, "Caocao, do you know what kind of person my grandfather is?" Shaoyao looked up, and although she didn't know why Huahua said this, she still shook her head honestly. She didn't care about the ministers in the court before.
Hua Zhi smiled, "Although he is very old, he is actually very naive and loyal. He believes that there are no useless kings, only useless ministers. He said that if the ministers are capable, even if the king is a little confused, he will never ruin the country. He said that when he was young, he didn't like reading at all. His great-grandfather punished him to kneel in the mourning hall, count numbers, and write down all the objects in the house and stick them up. In order to make him fall in love with reading, his great-grandfather tried every way, but not only did he not change him, but he was forced to vomit when he saw the book. Even so, his great-grandfather still didn't let him go. He said that at that time he wanted to run away from home and never come back."
Hua Zhi closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly. "Then there was one time when he hid himself. In fact, he hid in the ancestral hall, but no one found him. Everyone in the mansion was extremely anxious, but no matter how they shouted, he just wouldn't come out. Then he saw his great-grandfather go to the ancestral hall and kneel in front of the spirit tablets in the room and cry, saying that the Hua family's inheritance was broken, and he would never force him again. After he died, he would go underground to apologize to the ancestors. As long as the child could come back safely, it was only then that my grandfather knew what the Hua family surname represented. Later, no one forced him anymore, but he did better than anyone else. He was a clean old man. His clothes had to be clean, with no wrinkles on them. His heart had to be clean as well, as if there was a filter in front of his heart, and those bad things could never enter his heart."
Hua Zhi opened her eyes and met Shaoyao's stunned eyes, smiling gently, "So Cao Cao, I am the one who supports the Hua family. Everything the Hua family has is earned by our Hua family members with our own abilities. Even if we can only protect ourselves, even if we can only live in a corner, we did not take shortcuts, did not bow our heads, and we have a clear conscience. This way, when he comes back one day, he will be able to accept everything the Hua family has with peace of mind. Naive, but how can I let him down?"
"Even if you're always scarred like this?"
"To be honest, I never thought that I would have to fight with others in close combat and risk my life." In that peaceful era, this was something that only those who carried heavy burdens had to bear. "But I am the winner, and that's enough."
Shaoyao bit her lip. Instead of getting rid of the discomfort in her heart, she felt even more suffocated. She didn't know why.
Or maybe it was because Huahua spoke too lightly, or maybe it was because she was moved by Huahua's feelings for Mr. Hua.
Bao Xia came in with some water, and with it came the smell of alcohol. "I asked the shopkeeper for their strongest liquor and poured some in."
"This young man is teachable." Hua Zhi teased with appreciation, "Xiao Liu is also injured, remember to clean him up later."
"Know."
Hua Zhi was relieved. Her vision was black, and it would definitely be painful to clean it up. She might as well faint and not hold on any longer.
Once the mind is scattered, one loses consciousness of what is happening in life.
Baoxia carefully helped the young lady lie down, turned her head to wipe her face, and together with Shaoyao, cleaned the young lady's wounds. If possible, she really wished that these injuries were on her body.
The war here had just ended, but the war in Yuzhou had entered its most intense stage.
Gu Yanxi was wearing a mask and standing in the yard with a longbow in his hand. Beside him were bamboo tubes filled with arrows, one of which was empty, and the other was almost half empty. The same was true for the Seven Stars people surrounding him. The attackers never stopped, and their movements never ceased.
Everyone in the Seven Stars Division has dabbled in various weapons, but they are more proficient in four types of weapons, one is a whip, one is a bow, one is a double hook, and one is a sword. The first two are for long-range attack, and the latter two are for close combat. When they cooperate with each other, their combat power is doubled.
At this time, the bow and double hooks worked together. Those who showed up and were not taken care of by the longbow were all hooked by the double hooks and killed on the spot. The leader said that he did not need any survivors.
The bamboo tube is empty.
Gu Yanxi threw away the bow and drew a long whip from his waist. All the people in the Seven Stars followed his movements.
“Too slow.”
Everyone understood and attacked even more ruthlessly.
Gu Yanxi suddenly turned around and looked down the corridor. Haoyue was standing there, and Chen Qing was standing beside him. Gu Yanxi did not hesitate and said, "Please go back."
Haoyue smiled lightly and moved lightly, looking as calm as she could be, "I'm not a burden."
Gu Yanxi swung the whip, and the tail of the whip was right in front of Haoyue, blocking her steps abruptly, "Please go back."
Haoyue seemed to know what he meant. She looked at him deeply and did not object. She really left the yard.
Chen Qing was about to speak, but he quickly shut up when he saw the people from the Fourth Division jumping down from the roof.
"Leader, the enemy is making unusual movements. The people behind are starting to retreat."
"Do you know which direction to retreat to?"
"North."
Gu Yanxi looked at the enemy who was still attacking. If they really wanted to retreat, they should have retreated together, not just the back. But the front was the same as before, retreating to the north...
wrong!
"They know where Yuan Shifang is going. They left these heads behind to help Qingliu Camp."
"yes."
However, when they arrived at Qingliu Camp, the situation was much worse than they had expected. The vast majority of people on the ground were wearing Daqing Dynasty military uniforms, with a ratio of one to ten or even higher.
One to ten, Lu Yanxi was secretly shocked. This was the gap between the Daqing Dynasty and the Chaoli Tribe. For many years, the Daqing Dynasty had suppressed the Chaoli Tribe, but their fighting power had not declined at all. This nation was too terrifying.
He had no time to think at this moment. He made a few gestures and the Seven Stars Division rushed in different directions in groups of four, while Chen Qing stayed by Gu Yanxi's side the whole time.
The two men found the main tent, where the battle was the most intense. There was only one deputy general left beside Lu Peiyu. Both of them were injured, and they fought nine people back to back. Another man walked out of the tent with Yuan Shiwen on his shoulder.
Gu Yanxi and Chen Qing cooperated well. One attacked the man while the other rolled towards Yuan Shiwen. They took the man back in one encounter.
Seeing this, Lu Peiyu felt relieved. No matter what, as long as Yuan Shifang didn't lose, they wouldn't have lost!
After throwing the man to the ground, Gu Yanxi swung the whip again, wrapped around the man who had abandoned Lu Peiyu and was attacking him, and slammed him to the ground. Everyone in the Qixiu Division knew this move, and it was Gu Yanxi who created this brutal fighting style.
