It is said that blood ties are the most stable shackles, but there is still a saying that a family and a husband and wife cannot be exchanged for thousands of miles. Xie Yuzhi was able to fight and shed blood among the millions of troops, although he was not afraid of nine deaths, but he was afraid that if he died, Shen Miaoping would have no whereabouts.
As long as Xie Yuzhi lives, he will be able to protect him for one day, but if Shen Miaoping leaves the Xie family and leaves his eyesight, he will not be able to protect him in this life...
The night outside gradually thickened, and a light rain began to fall. A bloody smell filled the air, which was disgusting. The servants of the Duke of Chang’s government were all dismissed, leaving only a few masters holding weapons. Protect the gatehouse, and the surroundings are terribly silent.
The imperial palace is in the east city. Looking at it from a high place, I can see that the fire is soaring into the sky, and the rain has not been able to extinguish the scorching heat. There was a sound, and countless arrows flashed with cold light, showing their sharp edges in the dark night.
There were candles and fire sticks left in the basement, the lamp that Xie Yuzhi brought in had gradually dimmed, but Shen Miaoping was unaware, he sat with his knees crossed against the wall, and the whole person remained motionless until there was some clutter above his head The sound of footsteps made him suddenly open his eyes.
Holding his breath, Shen Miaoping tucked the hem of his robe into his waist, leaned over and walked up to the stone steps quietly, he could not see the situation outside, but with his ears on the ground, he could still vaguely hear some movement.
Someone entered Qufeng Court, and more than one...
The footsteps were very messy, and there was the sound of swords fighting, but it stopped after a while, and then the footsteps got closer and closer, and finally walked into the bedroom, Shen Miaoping could even feel someone walking over his head.
It was as if a bunch of bandits had broken in and they were rummaging around. The sound of porcelain falling and shattering kept ringing, and the tables and chairs fell to the ground. Without looking, one knew that it must be in a mess. Shen Miaoping’s heart suddenly froze. He kept falling into the abyss.
The Liao people were just outside the city, and Prince Li led the private army of the palace and half of Sun Tong's troops to force the palace, so there were three groups of people. Xie Yuzhi wanted to prevent the Liao people from attacking the city and keep the emperor. For the safety of Concubine Hezhao, the few troops were scattered again, and I was afraid that there would be more bad luck than good luck.
Shen Miaoping stood up slowly and paced back and forth in the basement, he stretched out his hand to support the cold wall brick and asked the system aloud, "What time is it now?"
【Ding! The interstellar self-improvement system tells the time for you. 】
Shen Miaoping was startled when he heard the words, as if he did not expect the second day to be so soon, his fingertips began to vibrate irregularly, after a long time, he continued to ask the second question: "Will Xie Yuzhi die?"
【Ding! It is a person who will die, and no one can transcend life and death. 】
Shen Miaoping squinted her eyes when she heard the words, obviously this answer did not satisfy him, so she could not help but retorted lightly, "Then you will die too."
The system was silent for a second.
【… I'm not human】
Shen Miaoping: "..."
For the next period of time, none of them spoke. The rain outside was getting heavier, and the atmosphere seemed to be getting anxious. The sound of killing in the Imperial City Palace was so loud that it went straight to the sky and spread far and wide. The Liao people began to concentrate their forces. Attacking the gate of Shengjing, several parties fought bloody battles, and the rain on the ground was also stained with mottled blood.
During this period, two groups of people came to Qufengyuan, but they did not leave immediately after a search. Shen Miaoping sat quietly on the stone steps, and footsteps sounded above his head from time to time, which could be heard clearly in the basement.
He closed his eyes, the feeling of powerlessness eroded his limbs, and he began to regret it.
When Xie Yuzhi left, why didn't he hug him, coax him, and say the kind of heart-wrenching words about marrying a wife and having children. Today, he wanted to give himself medicine, but it didn't work. Now thinking about it, it's very possible It's the last time...
It wasn't heartbreaking or heartbreaking, just for a moment, a dense tingling pain began to spread in my heart, as if it had been stabbed by tens of thousands of needles.
Shen Miaoping suddenly stood up from the ground and finally had a movement, he put the self-defense dagger into his arms, then tore off the sheets on the bed, wrapped them around his knees, then got under the bed and smashed the floor tiles Gently open it, revealing a narrow tunnel that can only accommodate one person.
【Ding! Host, are you going to run away? 】
Half of Shen Miaoping's body was already inside, and she kept moving when she heard the words, she only said, "Why don't you run away, wait for death?"
He couldn't pick up his shoulders, couldn't carry his hands, and couldn't even pull his bow. If he went out to help, he was afraid that he would die faster than anyone else.
The tunnel was very narrow and the nose was full of the smell of soil. Shen Miaoping groped forward, and it didn't take long for the air to begin to thin. He took a breath and continued to speed up. Blood was smeared from his elbows and his ten fingers were also hot. pain.
Changguo Gongfu was a family of dignitaries, living in Shengyefang, surrounded by bureaucrats, close to the imperial palace, but a bit far from the city gate, Shen Miao had to patrol the streets for a long time, let alone climb the tunnel to go out.
This road is as Xie Yuzhi said, it is very long, very dark, and it is difficult to breathe, but what is even more difficult is that there is no end in sight and can only go forward numbly. Climb forward vigorously.
The sound of slaughter on the tower of the city gate shook the sky. As time went by, the Liao people's offensive became more and more violent. The army of Da Jin was obviously unable to support it. , the blood spread on the ground, mixed with the soil, and the whole ground was covered with dark red blood.
Shen Miaoping did not expect that he had finally climbed out of the tunnel, and what he saw was this scene, blood flowed into rivers, mountains of corpses piled up, and the rain poured down his head, causing his limbs and bones to become cold.
The tunnel exit was in the dense forest not far from the city wall, Shen Miaoping lifted the board and climbed out, then carefully covered the exit, and went to observe the battle situation under the cover of the trees, although it was difficult to see clearly due to the rain curtain, but Da Jin this Bian had obviously fallen behind, and there might be Xie Yuzhi among those who were fighting at the city gate.
Shen Miaoping looked at the large number of Liao soldiers below and wanted to throw a thunderbolt at them to kill one by one, but when he was at a loss, the system suddenly rang.
【Ding! After the system upgrade is completed, the mall function has been opened. If necessary, the host can use the merit points to exchange corresponding weapons. The Interstellar Self-improvement System will serve you wholeheartedly. 】
Surviving in a desperate situation is probably a portrayal of Shen Miaoping's current mood. He was stunned when he heard the words, and immediately asked, "What is the merit point? Do I have it?"
[The host usually does good deeds and accumulates virtue to obtain corresponding merit points, and the current balance is three points]
Shen Miaoping: "What can I exchange for? Cannons?"
[There are cannons, but dear, your merit points are not enough, only enough to exchange three grenades]
"exchange."
A hand grenade is a hand grenade, it is better than nothing, Shen Miaoping just finished speaking when a dense grid appeared in front of him, just like the auxiliary lines that appeared in the scope when playing gunfight games.
【Jimi, please choose the placement coordinates for the host】
In order to avoid accidentally injuring the friendly troops, Shen Miaoping finally clicked on the area behind the center of the Liao army team. With the sound of the system "咻", a grenade fell from the sky in the dark night and fell into the Liao people's team.
"boom!"
A deafening explosion sounded suddenly in the ears of everyone, and even the earth on the ground blew up and splashed everywhere, Shen Miaoping covered her ears subconsciously, something hurt her back, it took a long time to recover, but after waiting When he looked at the battlefield again, he was surprised to find that the Liao team fell by a quarter in an instant.
The accident happened suddenly, and even the soldiers of Dajin were stunned, not to mention the Liao people around the incident area. They looked around in panic, and the horses under their crotch were so shocked that their legs fell to the ground and could not stand up again.
"What happened! What happened?!"
"Did God send down the divine thunder to punish us?"
Words like this spread among the crowd, and they began to panic. What's more, some people were kneeling down and praying to the sky. When the leader of the Liao army saw that something was wrong, he raised the golden scimitar in his hand and said angrily: "It must be this group of Jin. People are doing shit! They can't hold it anymore! Follow me! The Fifth Prince has orders, if anyone can take the head of an enemy general, he will be named a general! Kill!"
With his words, the morale quickly gathered up again, and the soldiers continued to charge forward. However, at this moment, a violent explosion suddenly sounded in their ears, and the soil splashed several feet away, and the ground A big hole was directly blown up, and the surrounding Liao people were even more dead and injured, and they were half the number of people alive compared to just now.
Shen Miaoping muttered to herself, "This grenade is more powerful than a cannon."
[Hey yo ~ produced by the system, it must be a high-quality product ~]
The Liao people were trying to cross the city wall with a human ladder, but they were directly knocked down by the aftermath, and a group of people smashed to the ground. My great Jin! Kill the soldiers! If anyone can take the head of Yelu Junqi, His Majesty will reward him with a marquis and work hard with thousands of dollars! Our parents, wife and children are all in the city, and we must not let the enemy invaders! "
Famous, wealthy, close relatives, there is always someone who can move people's hearts, and the situation that was one-sided just now reversed in an instant. The Liao people were beaten and fled everywhere. Yelu Junqi's face was extremely ugly. They were excluded, and there were not many old minions under his command. This time, the alliance with Prince Li was also based on the premise that the other party could help him obtain the throne. Now the troops have lost more than half, I am afraid that they will lose their troops and lose their troops. left.
Yelu Junqi clamped the horse's belly, his eyes were splitting: "All the troops retreat with me quickly!"
Hearing the order, the Liao army, who had been stubbornly resisting, immediately stopped resisting. As Yelu Junqi quickly retreated out of the city, the Jin army burst into violent cheers upon seeing this. Shen Miaoping could not help but sigh in relief. Trunks, seeing the Jin army come out to clean up the mess, one of them is particularly eye-catching in the appearance of a general in silver armor.
He had never seen Xie Yuzhi wearing armor, and he did not know if it was him, Shen Miaoping wiped the rain and dirt from his face, and leaned closer to take a closer look, her fingertips subconsciously clenched the tree trunk, even the injuries she suffered from climbing the tunnel Can't care.
"Leave some people to guard the city gate, and the rest will follow me to the palace to escort them!"
The two armies faced each other just now, and there was a sound of killing, but now it suddenly became silent, and it became even more deadly. Shen Miaoping could even hear the thumping sound of his heart, and there was even one who was stabbed by a sword five meters away from him. After getting the mutilated corpse, the other party could not rest his eyes, and his eyes were wide open, just looking at Shen Miaoping, in the dark night, he was like a terrifying ghost.
"Xie Yuzhi..."
Shen Miao leaned her back against the tree, avoiding the sight of the corpse, her hands were deeply immersed in the mud, he squinted his eyes and read Xie Yuzhi's name, restraining the steps he wanted to escape, as if these three words It is more reassuring than "Amitabha".
This kind of unreasonable feeling of unease is very unfamiliar, at this age, even down to the last second, Shen Miaoping has not experienced this kind of emotion because of anyone or anything for a long time.
He looked at the city wall again, the general in silver armor had arranged for protection, and finally turned around, the sword on his waist shone with a cold light, the blood on his face was not removed, despite the vast rain and fog, Shen Miaoping could Can recognize who the other party is through those determined eyes.
…
It's his father-in-law.
