Xia Yuanqiu glanced at Zhu Yan. Zhu Yan understood and paused slightly. A small stone flew through the air and hit the general's back knee.
The general did not avoid it and was hit by stones. He knelt on the ground in pain.
Xia Yuanqiu reached out to help him and placed his fingers on the general's wrist pulse. He felt that the pulse was soft and weak, not like a general who had been on the battlefield all year round.
The man stood up with Xia Yuanqiu's strength. His knees were still hurting, but he hurriedly thanked Xia Yuanqiu: "I've lost my composure. Thank you for your help, girl!"
Xia Yuanqiu smiled and said: "General, you don't have to be polite. It's just that it's dark and the road is far away at night. General, it's best to be careful."
The man looked embarrassed, responded with a dry smile, then turned around and continued on his way.
There are many tents and bonfires everywhere in the camp, but there are very few people. It does not look like a military camp with 300,000 troops.
Xia Yuanqiu suddenly asked: "General, the soldiers in your army also need to train at night?"
The general shook his head without thinking, "It's so dark at night that I can't even see people clearly. How can I train?"
Seeing his blunder, another general coughed twice and whispered: "Go your way and talk less."
Xia Yuanqiu and Zhu Yan exchanged glances, and they both knew what was going on.
At this time, Xia Yuanqiu pointed to the rows of tents not far away and asked: "General, why are the tents over there separated from this one? Are so many people guarding them?"
The general's body was obviously shaken, and he pinched his neck slightly and said: "I don't know, we are just small sergeants, how can we know everything? You should keep your words and ask our marshal."
After that, no matter how much Xia Yuanqiu asked, the two generals did not say a word. It was as if there were two knives on his neck. If they dared to say one more word, their heads would be removed.
The two leading generals stopped in front of an inconspicuous tent. It was pitch dark inside, and not even an oil lamp was lit.
"It's right here. The marshal is waiting for you two inside, please." After the two generals finished speaking, they hurried away without looking back.
Xia Yuanqiu was suspicious, secretly thinking, how could there be someone who didn't have someone guarding the marshal's tent? Don't light the lamp yet
The two of them stood outside the tent, suspicious, but did not enter. They heard the people inside waiting impatiently: "Since you two are here, why don't you come in and talk?"
Zhu Yan hummed, "I've heard for a long time that Commander Beiming Ye is a hospitable and friendly person. Now that I've seen him, it's nothing more than that. It's all just gossip."
The people inside suddenly burst into low laughter, and there was a lot of helplessness in the laughter: "It's not that Ye's temperament has changed, but it happened for a reason. You will know it when you come in, no need to say anything."
Xia Yuanqiu said: "In that case, we should be respectful rather than obey orders."
Zhu Yan took Xia Yuanqiu's hand and subconsciously protected her behind him. He moved his feet lightly, carefully raised the curtain, and entered slowly.
The tent was as dark as they imagined, and there was a chill in it, which reminded the two of their experiences in the Forgotten Valley and the Yin Valley.
Xia Yuanqiu took out a bright pearl from the space ring. The pearl was faint, but in this dark situation, it could still emit enough light to illuminate the way forward.
The camp was empty, with no tables and chairs, no beds, no signs of people, nothing.
Xia Yuanqiu hummed: "Is this how Commander Ye treats guests?"
I saw that cold voice sounded again, as if coming from the deepest part of the underworld, with a sense of coldness and helplessness that had been erased by time.
PS: I have seen many book friends complaining that there are fewer updates. Shepherd Boy is here to explain. Recently, Shepherd Boy got a severe viral cold and is not in good condition, so the number of updates is less than usual. He is feeling much better these days and is working on it. I'm rushing to finish the manuscript. There will be a big update in early April. I hope everyone can understand it. Thank you all! !
