Although this beast attack was due to the arrival of Xi Jiuye and the divine soldiers, the villagers escaped unharmed.
But the villagers in the ancient village were killed and injured countless times, and even Lan Chuchu's adoptive father died tragically under the claws of the beast.
After Xi Jiuye ordered people to bury the bodies of the villagers, he looked at the dilapidated ancient village and Lan Chuchu with red and swollen eyes, hesitant to speak.
"Ye Ling, the ancient village was attacked. I don't know when there will be a second beast attack. There are only a few dozen old and weak women and children left in the village. They have nowhere to go. Why don't you take them back to the barracks first and let them do it?" Some simple sewing and mending work, we will try to send them away when the situation is more stable."
Hearing this, Yeling frowned, then looked at Lan Chuchu and the women and children behind her.
Lan Chuchu has already brought a group of old and weak women and children to kneel down.
"General Nine Nights, Vice General Ye, you must help us. We can endure hardships and can do any job. I beg you two to let us stay in the barracks for a while."
"Any kind of suffering can be eaten? Someone, bring up a beast carcass and let them peel the skin and bones."
Yeling raised his eyebrows, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Xi Jiuye is an idiot, no matter what time it is, he still has the heart to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.
They went out to patrol this time because they got the news that there have been a lot of heresies in the adjacent area between the demon world and the god world. It is suspected that the power of strange demons from outside the sky has bewitched the power of the demon world.
The superior sent them to investigate the cause of the accident as soon as possible. In this case, they had no time to hurry, so how could they have time to take care of these women and children who were dragging their feet.
According to Ye Lingyue, escorting them to the nearest city as soon as possible is the best policy.
Xi Jiuye wanted to say something, but was shocked by Yeling's faint glance.
Seeing Yeling's red lips pouted slightly, he was unhappy.
There was an inexplicable joy in his heart, Ye Ling was just jealous
Xi Jiuye's heart was filled with sweetness, he closed his mouth and stopped talking.
That demon corpse was one of the monsters that attacked the ancient village last night. It was like a giant elephant, with a ferocious face and long thick hair all over its body.
When the women and children in the ancient village saw the monster, they were so frightened that they would not dare to go forward to skin and remove the bones.
Lan Chuchu looked at the corpse of the monster, trembling, and looked at Xi Jiuye pitifully, Xi Jiuye didn't dare to look directly into her eyes, and looked left and right.
Lan Chuchu gritted her teeth, walked forward, closed her eyes, picked up an ax clumsily, and chopped it down heavily.
A thick stream of blood spurted out and splashed on her face.
She screamed, her body staggered, the ax in her hand came out, and she fell to Xi Jiuye beside her.
"neat."
Xi Jiuye hurriedly supported her, and saw that her face was pale, and her white and tender hands were covered with blood, which had been directly split by the axe.
"Brother Jiuye, I really can, I can do anything, as long as you let me stay."
Lan Chuchu's eyelashes trembled, her whole body was weak and boneless, and she leaned against Xi Jiuye.
"That's enough, Ye Ling, don't embarrass Chu Chu. These rough jobs of skinning and bone removal will be done by the head soldiers. Chu Chu and the others can clean the clothes and sew and mend them."
Xi Jiuye couldn't bear it.
"Am I embarrassing her? I'm just a simple assessment. If I want to survive in the military camp, who hasn't passed the test of life and death? Didn't I also be made things difficult for me back then?"
Yeling said angrily.
"It's the same, you are a man, she is a woman."
Xi Jiuye was dissatisfied, feeling that Yeling was being unreasonable.
"I... Miss Chuchu, I see that your hands are delicate and your fingers are like onion roots. You really don't look like someone who does rough work. Are you really the adopted daughter of the village chief's family?"
Yeling gave Xi Jiuye a blank look.
The latter was startled for a moment, then looked at Lan Chuchu's hands and Yeling's hands.
Yeling is a civil servant, with white hands. Earlier, Xi Jiuye and a group of old generals said that "his" hands were more feminine than women.
But now, thin calluses have grown on Yeling's hands, marching and fighting all year round, no matter how delicate it is, it can shed a layer of skin for you.
As a village girl in an ancient village, Lan Chuchu naturally does a lot of farm work and housework. Her hands are like those of a wealthy family.
Xi Jiuye couldn't help being suspicious.
"I'm not from an ancient village, but... I'm someone else's illegitimate daughter. Over the years, my 'father' has been helping the village chief's family, and the village chief's family has never let me do rough work."
Lan Chuchu glared at Yeling with some annoyance.
Her cunning scheme had already worked, but since Xi Jiuye was about to agree to let her stay in the barracks, Yeling would cause more trouble.
"It turns out that she is the daughter of a powerful and powerful person, so it is even more inappropriate to stay in the military camp. After all, the military camp is full of big men. When people pursue it, I am afraid that it will ruin Miss Chuchu's reputation. If Miss Chuchu is willing, we can send Several people escorted you back to your biological father."
Yeling suggested.
"Ye Ling is right, Chu Chu, now that the army is in chaos, if you can return to your father's side, you will be much safer."
Xi Jiuye also thought it was good to hear what Yeling said. No wonder he felt that Lan Chuchu was different from ordinary women.
He was seriously injured when he was young, and even the family doctor couldn't treat his injury. After being rescued by Lan Chuchu, he was cured by him.
He also asked about it afterwards, but Lan Chuchu shirked it and didn't go into details. Now that he thinks about it, it's also because of his background, so it's inconvenient to say more.
When Lan Chuchu heard this, she bowed her head and remained silent.
Her background has been a stain on her for many years, but after meeting Xi Jiuye again, she suddenly had the idea of recognizing her father.
It was nothing more than other things, because she had heard that only noble women from aristocratic families were eligible to marry a young general like Xi Jiuye and become their official wife.
She wanted to marry Xi Jiuye, and beside him, there was Yeling who looked very obtrusive.
Xi Jiuye was very protective of Ye Ling. She wanted to drive Ye Ling away, and justifiably stayed by Xi Jiuye's side, fearing that she would have to return to her father.
Although that man was sorry for her mother and her, he wrote a letter not long ago, wanting to take her back.
Lan Chuchu was still unwilling at the beginning, she had been waiting for the boy to come back all these years.
"Then thank you two generals."
Lan Chuchu pondered for a moment, and bowed gracefully.
Neither Yeling nor Xi Jiuye could have imagined what kind of uproar Lan Chuchu would cause in their lives from now on.
After seeing off Lan Chuchu, neither Xi Jiuye nor Yeling mentioned Lan Chuchu again, as if she had never appeared before.
During that patrol, Xi Jiuye and Ye Ling worked together to defeat the monster's lair and capture the leader of the monster who committed the riot.
After extorting a confession, Xi Jiuye and Ye Ling learned that the leader of the monster beasts was acting under orders, and the one who gave the order was the Zhanshen Demon Emperor, one of the two great demon emperors in the demon world.
