"Ah-"
Blood... screams... broken limbs...
That's not human at all!
That is clearly a ghost, that is clearly a demon!
"My God, my God, the condor on the grassland... There are ghosts, there are ghosts..." Zhuo Le stared at the man in front of him, and murmured almost in disbelief.
Among the mighty Bei Rong army, Zhuo Le was extremely brave and ruthless, otherwise he would not have become a commander of a thousand at a young age, but at this moment, he just wanted to run away!
But those wailing sounds that were getting closer, and the thick bloody smell coming from the nostrils were like a spell, making Zhuo Le's two legs so soft that they were almost like overcooked noodles, and he couldn't even turn around and run away. .
Who said, who said that the Emperor Chen is old and fatuous, the generals of Da Chen are as timid as a mouse, and the army of Da Chen is vulnerable! And who said that this small frontier remote city can be easily captured by the Beirong army in only three days!
Not far ahead, the black-robed general who rode alone was like a god of death descending into the world. The entire Beirong army was almost unstoppable!
The man was extremely young, he looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old at most, with phoenix eyes and thin lips, black robe billowing, holding an extremely long and heavy Xueliang Modao, he just came out from the gate of Yaocheng by himself. A path of blood, heading straight to the Beibei army, harvesting human lives like mowing grass, thick and warm blood dripping slowly along the blade of Mo Dao, along the fingers holding the blade, like a ghost, like a demon, like a demon. magic!
"Hiss..." The dark steed under him raised its front hooves high and let out a loud neighing sound, at the same time, the sharp Mo Dao slashed across!
Zhuo Le knelt down involuntarily: "General, spare your life! Forgive, spare!!"
The black-robed general ignored him at all, the light of the saber drew a sharp circular arc, and he retracted the saber in an instant!
Zhuo Le didn't understand what was going on, but only heard a "squeak..." sound, and the scarlet Beirong banner fluttering in the wind behind him had collapsed to the ground!
The black-robed general raised his bright Mo Dao high and shouted sharply: "God bless Chen!!"
On the wall of the distant city in the distance, bursts of excited cheers echoed: "General Xiao is mighty! General Xiao is mighty! God bless Chen! God bless Chen! God bless Chen!!"
Seeing that the densely packed Bei Rong cavalry gradually surrounded him, the young black-robed general laughed loudly, and rode his horse back to the city without further delay.
Zhuo Le stared blankly at the black-robed general turning back to the city, and while he was relieved, he couldn't help but feel mixed feelings in his heart.
The black-robed general went out to fight in the city, but only cut off the banner of Beirong's central army. Although he injured hundreds of soldiers, he didn't cause too much damage to Beirong, but Zhuo Le knew in his heart that such an attack Later, the morale of the soldiers in Yaocheng, which had been gradually slackened, gathered together again. The grand ambition of Prince Alkin of Beirong to win Yaocheng within three days was still in vain.
What exactly is going on
Who is this young black-robed general
…
Lu Xiao shook off the blood dripping from Mo Dao, and rushed into the city gate with his horse's hooves flying: "Close the city gate! Let the arrows go, let the arrows go!!"
"Squeak—" The thick copper-nailed oak gate of Yaocheng slowly closed behind him, and at the same time, white feathered arrows poured down from the high city wall like a rainstorm! !
The Northern Army cavalry who came after them suddenly cried out in pain: "Ah—"
"They shot arrows!"
"Quick retreat, quick retreat!"
Hearing the miserable cries from outside the city wall, Lu Xiao slowly rode his horse into the city, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
I took the risk of riding out of the city alone and cut off the banner of the Beirong Central Army. Although it did not cause too much damage to Beirong, it greatly deterred the enemy. This time of respite also bought three days of extremely precious time for the coming Da Chen reinforcements.
And that person... He must have looked at himself just now.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiao felt a fever in his chest, turned over and jumped off the horse, handed the horse to a soldier, and then hurried to the high city wall with almost no time to catch his breath.
There was someone there, someone he most wanted to see.
As an important border town, Yaocheng's earthen walls are not very delicate, but they are tall and thick enough. Lu Xiao ran up the city wall in one breath, and saw the man turning around and looking at him with a smile: "Xiao'er, Well done."
Lu Xiao jumped for joy, and was inexplicably embarrassed. He pushed a strand of messy hair behind his ears as if covering up, calmed down a little, and then went forward: "Master, you were on the tower just now... Saw?"
"Of course I saw it." The man smiled, "Xiao'er can control Modao with sword intent, it's really amazing."
"Yeah." Lu Xiao pursed his lips, looked down at the person in front of him, the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising, he felt his chest was warm and hot, and he was indescribably satisfied and proud.
Ever since he came to the border of northern Xinjiang, the person in front of him has also changed into a simple coarse linen gown, and his thick black hair is pulled up with cloth strips, but even so, he still looks like a fairy.
This is his master, and this is the master of Feilai Peak in Shuo Xuecheng, Qiu Yutong.
Qiu Yutong suddenly noticed something, and frowned slightly: "You have blood here... are you not hurt?"
"Is it here?" Lu Xiao wiped the remaining blood on the side of his face indifferently, "Master, don't worry, it's all other people's blood."
"Alas, there are many disputes in the human world, especially military affairs, and those who practice Taoism should not interfere too much." Qiu Yutong looked at the densely packed Beibei military camp in the distance, and couldn't help sighing, "The Beibei army is overwhelming, your brothers Uncles, you often make trouble behind your back... Xiaoer, these days, I have really suffered for you."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gently shook Lu Xiao's palm as if to comfort him.
This hand is slender and powerful, with very slender fingers, and the palm is well-proportioned, without the roughness and thickness of a martial arts practitioner. Lu Xiao was gently held by this hand, and he could almost feel the thinness of the opponent's fingertips. Sword Cocoon...
He looked down at the hands they were holding, and felt a heart beating heavily and fast, and his expression became a little unnatural. At almost the same time, a dull thunderclap rolled across the sky.
"Boom..."
Qiu Yutong looked up at the dark sky, then looked back at Lu Xiao, and couldn't help laughing: "Why, you're so big, are you still afraid of thunder?"
Still afraid of thunder? Lu Xiao pursed his lips, feeling depressed for no reason.
I turned eighteen last month, and I am no longer afraid of thunder, but this person knows that he has grown up, but he always treats himself like a child, holding on to his old braid...
"I'm not afraid anymore..."
Before he could finish his defense, he heard Qiu Yutong say: "By the way, Xiao'er, when you come over at night, bring a few pieces of sugar cakes. It's best to warm them up... Cough cough, I don't want to eat it for the teacher, but I'm just afraid of you. I was hungry at night and couldn't sleep."
Lu Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't continue his defense. When there was thunder when I was a child, I would sleep with this person. Over time, it has almost become a fixed habit. Today it thunders again, so...
Thinking of this, Lu Xiao pursed his lips, and did not continue to defend himself. Instead, when the second thunder sounded, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and his whole body tensed slightly.
He knew he was pretending on purpose, but he just couldn't control it.
Qiu Yutong saw that he seemed to be terribly frightened, and stroked his hair amusedly: "Okay, let's go, go back. The morale of the Beibei army has been seriously injured today, and it is estimated that there will be no surprise attack tonight. We must not let them discover ours." Little General Lu Xiao is actually afraid of thunder."
"Master!!"
"Hahaha, let's not talk about this, let's go." Seeing that he was in a hurry, Qiu Yutong stopped teasing him, and the master and apprentice went down the high city wall together and walked to the residence.
Yaocheng is very small, and it is located in the border area. Its population is only over 20,000, and its conditions are very limited. The place where Qiu Yutong and Lu Xiao lived temporarily was the mansion of a local gentry. It was deserted, leaving only a deaf-mute old servant.
Lu Xiao returned to his bedroom, took off his light armor, took off his clothes soaked in the blood of the enemy soldiers, rinsed them with cold water, and went to the kitchen to warm up pastries.
It is said to be pastry, but it is actually rough sugar and sorghum, which is barely steamed to make a rough sugar cake. Cake is also very precious.
After a while, Lu Xiao warmed up the sugar cake, carefully carried it to Qiu Yutong's bedroom door, and called softly, "Master!"
"Hmm... wait." There was a slight sound of water in the bedroom, followed by the rustling of dressing.
Hearing those small voices, Lu Xiao's heart moved slightly, as if being scratched by a cat's paw, he couldn't tell what it felt like, and then "squeaked—" the bedroom door opened.
"Huh? It's getting hot so soon?" Qiu Yutong was messing around with a rough linen robe, her long thick black hair was dripping wet, and the collar was not covered properly, it was loose.
Lu Xiao's current stature is slightly taller than Qiu Yutong's. He lowered his eyes involuntarily, and looked down from the loose neckline. In addition to the large snow-white complexion, he could faintly see a little bit of soft pink. .
At this moment, he felt a sudden tightness in his throat, and his mind went blank. He turned his head sideways almost in a state of embarrassment. What was he looking at? This is my most respected and beloved master, how can I, how can I...
Qiu Yutong didn't seem to notice anything, and tidied up her clothes in embarrassment: "Ahem, I was taking a bath just now."
"Yeah." Lu Xiao was flustered, he didn't know where to put his eyes, so he just responded indiscriminately.
"come in."
Lu Xiao drowsily carried the sugar cake, and followed Qiu Yutong into the bedroom. As expected, there was a bathtub in the middle of the bedroom, and the water was still steaming. shirt.
I don't know why, but at this time, Lu Xiao didn't dare to look at those close-fitting underwear, so he just put the sugar cake on the table, and said in a low voice, "The sugar here is a bit rough, I'm not used to it."
"Oh, I'll try it." Qiu Yutong sat down at the table, picked up a small piece of sugar cake, and took a bite.
Seeing that he was eating seriously, Lu Xiao picked up the clean handkerchief on the back of the chair, stood behind Qiu Yutong, and wiped his hair carefully, but the angle was really delicate, as long as he lowered his eyes slightly, he could From the other party's loose collar, I saw too many things that I shouldn't have seen... Lu Xiao felt that his breathing was a little tight, so he could only tilt his head slightly, trying not to glance there.
What is wrong with me
Qiu Yutong didn't notice anything unusual at all, she just concentrated on eating the crude sugar cake, and said vaguely: "Well, it's actually pretty good."
"Really? I'm not used to this kind of coarse sugar." Lu Xiao calmed down before saying calmly.
In the border area, rough sugar is also hard to find, just a little bit of rough sugar, the people in Yaocheng thanked Lu Xiao and stuffed it for him, plus a little sorghum from this mansion, a small plate of sugar cake was made in total , Lu Xiao himself is not willing to eat, he only reasoned that he is not used to eating.
"Xiao'er, you really don't want to eat it? Then I'll eat it all. Ahem, I'm not greedy for my teacher, but... don't waste food."
"Yeah." In the past, Lu Xiao would still find it a little funny, but today he was really flustered, so he just responded in a low voice, while carefully brushing his thick black hair, while looking down at the other person eating.
"Well, it's delicious." Qiu Yutong held a small piece of sugar cake, ate it in small bites, with a satisfied face, and didn't dislike this crude sugar cake at all.
In this kind of border town, I can only cook this kind of crude food for my master... After winning the battle and returning to the capital, in time, I will definitely reach that position. The best things in the world are all held in front of the master, no no no, this is not enough, he still needs...
Thinking of this, Lu Xiao was suddenly at a loss, what else could he do
At this moment, the sky outside the window was getting darker and darker, rumbling thunder rolled heavily in the sky, and suddenly there was a "crash—" and finally the rainstorm poured down.
At this time, Qiu Yutong finally ate the last piece of candy cake. He licked his lips with insatiable desire, and suddenly thought of something: "The southeast corner of the city wall was repaired just the day before yesterday. With such a heavy rain, there will be no problem, right?"
"Master, don't worry, I have had someone cover it with felt in advance."
"Oh, that's good, Xiao'er, you are always so considerate in everything you do." Qiu Yutong felt relieved and couldn't help but smile.
Naturally, he didn't notice that the corner of his mouth was stained with a little white sugar residue. Looking at the sugar residue, Lu Xiao suddenly had an impulse, he wanted to lean over gently, and lick the sugar residue away...
"Boom!!!"
Another series of thunder explosions resounded through the sky!
Lu Xiao suddenly came back to his senses. He looked at the face very close, and his whole body froze.
What do you want to do? Are you crazy
Qiu Yutong looked up at him suspiciously, the difference between their lips was only an inch, and she could clearly see the trembling of each other's pupils: "Xiao'er, what's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing..." Lu Xiao stood up straight in a panic, "Well, it's so late, it's time to sleep."
"Oh, then go to bed early, tomorrow morning, we will go to the city wall to patrol."
…
After a long time, the bedroom gradually became quiet, except for the sound of the rain outside, the only sound was the long breathing of the person beside him.
Lu Xiao lay quietly on the bed, with the dark bed curtains in front of his eyes, and the faint fragrance of snow from the end of his nose...
That cold and clear fragrance made him almost flustered... When he was a child sleeping next to this person, he would only feel extremely at ease, but at this moment, he was actually flustered, even scared... He didn't understand what was going on .
The rain is getting heavier.
