"Cang Yue came to call for the battle, and the east corner faced the battle. The vanguards of the two armies fought, no distinction was made, but after hitting the mountains and forests on the west side, there was no sound, neither the sound of fighting nor anyone was seen withdrawing, which was very strange. General Xuanyuan ordered Retreat, the second team of forwards went in to check, but there was still no movement, and it didn't come out." The man's voice was not loud, and his words were concise.
Based on her understanding of Xuanyuan Yi, he should not be able to fight such an uncertain and blindly sacrificed battle. After thinking for a while, Murong Shuqing continued to ask, "So has the army returned to the camp now?"
"Except for the three thousand soldiers who are guarding in the mountains and forests, the rest have already returned to the camp."
As if to confirm his words, the sound of horses' hooves from far and near came. The horses' hooves were steady and the sound was neat. It should be the withdrawal of the army. Nodding, Murong Shu said softly, "I see, you go down."
"Yes."
The man turned around and was about to leave the tent when Murong Shuqing suddenly asked, "Wait, what's your name?"
The man was obviously startled. He didn't seem to think that Murong Shuqing would ask his name, but soon, he replied calmly, "Fan Feng."
Is it Fan Feng? She remembered. Murong Shuqing nodded lightly, the man dodged out of the tent.
Murong Shuqing just got up, and Lu Yi had prepared the mink fur cloak and asked, "Miss, do you want to go to the main tent?"
Murong Shuqing chuckled lightly, this girl is really caring, she is also observant, and has indeed grown. But at this time, what did she do in the main account? She really doesn't understand the marching formation, and she can't help much, only disturbing the generals to discuss countermeasures. But now that she has woken up and Lu Yi has prepared a cloak, she still wants to continue her morning thoughts. Putting on the cape, Murong Shuqing smiled and said, "No, just help me walk outside the tent."
"Oh!" Lu Yi carefully helped Murong Shuqing out of the tent, but she didn't understand, shouldn't the young lady go to comfort and help Young Master Xuanyuan at this time? Or is Young Master Xuanyuan not in the main account
The snow stopped yesterday, the snow on the main road had already melted, and it was exposed to the sun for a day, and the original soil also appeared. The military discipline is strict, and they all return their accounts without saying much.
The soldiers basically knew about Murong Shuqing. First, the Murong family's delivery of food had left a good reputation in the army. Second, she was the wife of General Xuanyuan who had never been through the door, so they didn't embarrass her when they saw her going out. Along the way, soldiers nodded to greet her.
Murong Shuqing walked under a tall plum tree and stopped, not realizing that there were also plum blossoms in the military camp. Different from the warm and arrogant red plum in the Shuangtian Courtyard, this towering cold plum is a white plum. Sure enough, under the baptism of the wind and snow, the plum will bloom with a more proud beauty. The crystal plum petals are clearer than the snow. .
Just as Murong Shuqing was about to caress the trunk of Baimei, a surprised and delighted male voice asked, "Miss Murong, are you feeling better?"
Murong Shuqing turned around and saw a thin, very young general looking at her with a smile on his face. Murong Shuqing thought about it, she didn't seem to have seen him, did she? After some hesitation, Murong Shuqing asked with a smile, "Who are you?"
The young general smirked and rubbed his head unconcernedly, and replied, "I informed you the day you came." At that time, he was deeply impressed by the general's terrified face after seeing Miss Murong fainting.
Murong Shu smiled brightly, she was carried into the barracks by Xuanyuan Yi that day, and she didn't know anything. Murong Shuqing smiled politely: "Hello, thank you."
The teenager didn't expect Murong Shuqing to thank him so politely, and he waved his hands at a loss and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome."
He waved his hand and stepped back, his face full of embarrassment. Murong Shuqing and Lu Yi couldn't help laughing at his panicked and cute behavior. At this moment, there was a commotion from a distance. Murong Shuqing looked up and saw a black and lightning-like shadow rushing towards her, accompanied by joy. the neigh.
Murong Shuqing exclaimed in surprise, "Ice Soul!"
During these days, she had been asking Yan Yu to send people to look for Ice Soul on the Snow Mountain. She guessed that Fengshan was very close to Linfeng Pass, and Ice Soul would definitely return to the Snow Mountain to wait for her if she could not find her. But there was no sign of it, which made her worry for many days.
Ice Soul stopped in front of Murong Shuqing and rubbed her neck affectionately, looking a little impatient. Murong Shuqing patted its head lightly, with his face close to the ice soul, stroking its soft mane with one hand, and said in a low voice, "Why are you here?" Although he knew that it would not answer him, Murong Shuqing still Whispered in its ear, it was her most special friend in this era.
Ice Soul's strong and upright posture is particularly eye-catching, and the speed at which he rushed just now also surprised and admired by everyone in the army. I saw that this person was as close as no one else was, a bright black and unruly horse, a woman with blue silk hanging on the ground and a white dress like snow, like a painting, people couldn't bear to disturb him.
After a long time, the young general seemed to come back to his senses. While looking at the ice soul enviously, he asked, "So it is your horse?" What a handsome horse, he originally thought that the general's fighting spirit was already the best There are horses, so there are still such handsome and handsome horses in the world.
Seeing his surprised look, Murong Shuqing asked with a smile, "Have you seen it before?"
The teenager nodded quickly and replied: "Yes, it was wandering near the military camp a few days ago, not only I have seen it, but many people have seen it. It's just that it is too sharp and fast, we didn't have time to get close, it disappeared. It's gone." From a distance, I just thought it was a good horse, but I didn't expect it to be so tall and mighty up close.
how many days ago? Was it after she asked Yan Yu to go to Snow Mountain to find it? Did it come back with the hot rain? Then why did it refuse to show up and secretly followed back? It was the fake Ziyuan who made it suspicious last time, so I didn't believe anyone, and followed Yanyu here and didn't show up until I saw her
No wonder it was so impatient just now, no wonder it couldn't hide its tiredness, Murong Shuqing caressed Bingpo's face distressedly, if she didn't come out today, would it have to wait like this
Murong Shuqing patted the ice soul over and over again, and it finally put its head on Murong Shuqing's shoulder calmly, as if it was resting, then a loud and slightly pleasant voice sounded behind Murong Shuqing, "Ice Po, long time no see."
Ice Soul raised his head alertly and looked at the person coming. Murong Shuqing also turned to look at it. It was Xuanyuan Yi. There were a few people in armor behind him, and Pei Che was also behind him. They should have just finished discussing the military situation and heard the commotion before leaving the account. And the obvious appreciation and beating flames in their eyes showed their desire to conquer the ice. Or maybe Xuanyuan Yi was right, Ice Soul is enough to make any man's blood boil, or maybe, conquering and possessing is a human nature, and this kind of inferiority becomes especially obvious in front of the things he loves.
After Ice Soul saw Xuanyuan Yi clearly, it let out a high-pitched neigh and kept kicking with its forefoot. Obviously, it did not forget the hearty contest with him, and Xuanyuan Yi also raised the corners of his resolute mouth because of the excitement of Ice Soul. .
After the neighing, Ice Soul dropped its head on Murong Shuqing's shoulder as before, its tiredness made Murong Shuqing feel distressed, Murong Shuqing gently rubbed it with his forehead, and said softly: "You found me Now, let's go!"
Ice Soul and Murong Shuqing looked at each other for a while, then suddenly stretched out its big tongue and licked it hard on Murong Shuqing's face, making Murong Shuqing's face full of saliva, and then he ran away like a successful prank. , running all the way and shouting happily all the way. Murong Shuqing was dumbfounded. Was it revenge for her disappearance for half a month
The speed of the ice soul is very fast, and it has run far away in the blink of an eye. In this cold winter when everything is sleeping, its arrogant and unrestrained attitude and the vitality of freely chasing the wind have amazed those who have seen it, let alone these perennial years. A man who fights and loves horses. Although Li Ming admired Ice Soul, he was even more curious about the indifferently smiling woman in front of him. Is this the Murong Shuqing he had met? It seems, and it seems not. The same thin and unremarkable figure, the same ordinary appearance like a porridge and a side dish, but what is different? Is it that elegant breath, or that gentle smile? He was puzzled.
Pei Che looked at the direction in which the ice soul was going, and asked everyone's questions, "Shu Qing, where is the ice soul going?"
Murong Shuqing took the silk that Lu Yi handed over and wiped the saliva from his face, Ice Soul really gave her a "deep" kiss this time! Murong Shuqing replied with a smile, "It's tired these days and needs to rest." According to the young general, it may have been waiting near the barracks for five days, and it's really hard to deal with it.
Pei Che suggested, "Isn't it the same as letting it rest in the military camp?" I finally saw Ice Soul again, and it ran away in a blink of an eye. Although it wasn't his horse, if he stayed in the army, he could see it often. Also a joy.
Murong Shuqing shrugged helplessly and said with a smile: "Linfengguan is its territory, I can't control it." Ice Soul is used to being free, this is where it grows, she doesn't want to restrict it to stay here In the military camp "eyeing on".
"Report—" At this moment, a fast horse rushed towards the camp, and the frantic sound of hooves made everyone stop talking. Looking at the person coming, Murong Shuqing suddenly had a very bad premonition. Soon, the messenger had come to the crowd, stumbled off the horse, and immediately knelt on one knee.
"Speak." Xuanyuan Yi exuded a low and dignified aura, causing Murong Shuqing to take two steps back slightly. This is the temperament of a soldier, it will always make people subconsciously awe.
The person who came still didn't make a sound, and he couldn't see the expression with his bowed head. I saw that he carefully placed the package that had been protecting his chest on the ground. Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Li Ming was very anxious and said angrily: "Is there any news about the striker, tell me now!"
The person who came replied with a choked voice: "Yes." His hands were shaking and he was slowly untying the cloth from the package. The long cloth was dark and dirty, filled with the smell of blood, and the trembling hands , Suppressed weeping! Is that-
Murong Shuqing suddenly thought of something, pulled Lu Yi's body that was curiously poking up, and shouted, "Lv Yi, don't look!"
"Ah—" But it was too late, Lu Yi screamed and rushed into Murong Shuqing's arms, the trembling shoulders and rapid breathing all showed that Lu Yi was frightened. Murong Shuqing patted her on the back and turned her face away. Her heart was also beating wildly, and although she didn't cry out, she also felt that her mind was blank at the moment, and the world was spinning. Just because that long cloth was wrapped, it was a blood-stained human head, whose appearance could no longer be seen, but it made people feel horrified!
The blood-stained mud after the snow, the dark color, like the tentacles of the god of death, tightly grasped the hearts of everyone present.
Li Ming grabbed the collar of the soldier kneeling on the ground in one hand, shook it vigorously, and roared, "What's going on?!" This is the soldier who was chatting with him last night, but today he is in a different place.
The young general was already sobbing and his eyes were hollow, but he still replied resolutely: "Half an hour ago, a group of snow wolves ran out of the snowy mountains and forests, and they held the heads of the soldiers in their mouths." Thinking of the scene just now, A group of wolves rushed towards them, throwing the heads of comrades-in-arms who fought side by side with him. Speaking of the back, the teenager couldn't help crying.
"Xuelang?!" Pei Che frowned and asked, "Then what?" He thought it was just a puzzle, could he be wrong
Wiping his face vigorously, the young general said, "Xuelang dropped his head and jumped back into the forest. The deputy commander was afraid that this was a trick to lure the enemy, so he didn't chase in, so he ordered me to report to the general quickly. "
Everyone's eyes turned to Xuanyuan Yi, who had been bowing his head and said nothing, but he said calmly, "Let them withdraw."
The lieutenants on the side couldn't help shouting: "General..." Could it be that these soldiers died in vain? It's just a few snow wolves, how could Cang Yue use such despicable and insidious tricks, how could they be afraid of him!
Xuanyuan Yi still had that expressionless face, and it did not change because of everyone's call. The military orders were like mountains, and the young general had to clench his fists and replied loudly, "Yes." He quickly got on his horse and ran away.
Murong Shuqing breathed a sigh of relief, Xuanyuan Yi could be called "God of War" for no reason. In front of such a bloody head, it is impossible not to feel resentful and distressed, but in such an exciting situation, he can still maintain a clear head, focus on the overall situation, and do not make unnecessary sacrifices, which is indeed outstanding. .
The smell of blood from the tip of her nose made Murong Shuqing feel as if something was holding her down. Lu Yi also had a pale face and looked like she was about to faint at any time. Unable to bear the oppressive atmosphere, Murong Shuqing bowed slightly. , "Shu Qing retire first."
At this time, no one was in the mood to pay attention to them anymore, Murong Shuqing and Lu Yi supported each other and walked towards the tent. After walking a few steps, Murong Shuqing turned around and wanted to say something to Xuanyuan Yi, and it happened to meet those slightly squinted black eyes. After thinking about it, she didn't say anything. Murong Shuqing turned and left, she thought, he would come to find him later. her.
