three watch drums

Escorted by a small group of dead soldiers, Xu Chensheng escaped from the encirclement at an extremely fast speed, but the closer he got to the Wuming River, the more danger he would face—this place was already dominated by walking corpses and wild beasts, and They cannot afford more casualties.

There was blood on Li Murong's shoulder, she hastily tore off a piece of clothes, bandaged the wound, dragged Xu Chensheng to hide in the weeds, and moved forward slowly and efficiently.

In such a harsh winter, Li Murong's body was still covered with a thin layer of sweat. Her face was scratched to varying degrees during the fall from the horse, but her eyes were as sharp and sensitive as a falcon's, and her back was tense and bowed slightly. It's like an arrow that will leave the string at any time.

"Second brother, don't worry, I will definitely send you to Badu safely," Li Murong whispered, "It's probably impossible to be unscathed, why don't you make do with it, how about not missing arms or legs?"

"..." Li Murong has always had this kind of problem. When it comes to a critical moment, he can't help but say something to tease him, as if just smiling at this time will solve the problem.

Xu Chensheng actually has a pessimistic tinge in his bones. He has a heavy heart and can easily accumulate negative emotions, and he doesn't like to talk about it, which makes him look a little gloomy occasionally.

When he was hiding in the bushes, his ironed official robe was wrinkled, dirty, and torn a lot, so he couldn't see his original appearance at all.I'm afraid that even if he broke through the siege and arrived in front of Badu Khan safely, he would be dismissed as a lunatic who was causing trouble for nothing.

"Second brother," Li Murong smiled softly beside him, and she said again, "Don't worry, you are a natural envoy, if someone dares to stop you, I will let his head fall."

"You, don't just say that the head is on the ground. We are here for peace talks, not to destroy other people's lairs. Restrain yourself." Xu Chensheng was inconceivably comforted by Li Murong.

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air in his chest, carefully sketching in his heart what he should say and how he should act—this trip can only be won, not defeated. It's better to organize your thoughts and accept it calmly.

At this moment, there was a huge movement in the distance, like a confrontation between thousands of troops, but the strength of this confrontation was obviously uneven, and the wailing of one side's disastrous defeat was getting closer, even if Li Murong had experienced hundreds of battles Also momentary scalp numbness.

She subconsciously pulled Xu Chensheng closer, and the bloody smell coming towards her was as strong as a city massacred overnight. Xu Chensheng's complexion instantly turned pale. He was protected by Li Murong, but he clearly felt the presence of a woman who is not afraid of anything. Trembling, the surrounding beasts and walking corpses retreated one after another as if they had encountered a nemesis, forming an open space around them.

Li Murong was also afraid in his heart, she had just got married, and she hadn't been home for many years, thinking of her parents and sister, if they died here forever, many things would become regrets, and Li Murong never liked to make himself regret.

She looked into the black mist vigilantly like a cheetah, with her right hand on the hilt of her sword, like an arrow flying from the string, the angle of attack was just right.

The person who came was Xie Changlin.

He was holding Su Chan in his arms, and there were two little dolls beside him, his body was spotless, but there was a bloody path under his feet, and behind him was a mountain of corpses.All the ambushes and layouts here can't get close to Xie Changlin's body. The walking corpses who are walking one after another are just mantis arms acting like carts, and they exploded to death before they got close.

In Li Murong's memory, although the devil lord is not easy to get close to, he is not a treacherous and evil person. Xie Changlin drank two bowls of wine.

But looking at it now, this demon god is truly unique in the world, and all ghosts and ghosts are either trembling under his feet, or they can only run around, trying to save their lives.

Unfortunately, no matter begging for mercy or fleeing, there is only one end in the end——

A burly wolf suddenly scattered into a pile of blood and flesh in front of Li Murong, and even part of it was poured on Li Murong's body impartially, but she didn't bother to take care of these disgusting things now, because apart from making Xie Changlin, who was frightened by everyone, also saw Su Chan.

The lifeless Su Chan.

Li Murong can be said to be used to life and death.She practiced martial arts since she was a child, and when she was seven or eight years old, she was occasionally taken by General Li to fight in the north and south. When she turned eighteen, she officially joined the army. She was a cook, a groom, a coachman, and a vanguard officer. However, there were even two years dedicated to consigning corpses.

So with just one look, she knew that Su Chan was dead.

Ordinary people don't understand the three souls and seven souls. In Li Murong's eyes, there is only one life, and if you lose it, you lose it, regardless of whether it has a soul or a soul.She was heartbroken, but she clenched her teeth and refused to cry out.

Although there are not many people left in the team that followed her, Li Murong is the backbone. At this time, as long as the backbone shows any weakness, the whole situation will be completely defeated. I am afraid that everyone will die before they are killed under the account of Badu Khan. In this endless swamp.

Li Murong saw Xie Changlin, Xie Changlin naturally also saw her.

The eyes of the condescending people were frozen three feet, and they were usually a bit disgusted, but now it seems that there is only endless silence left.

It's like waking up from a big dream, and this dream in the spring night, the beauty is only like the sunset over the long river, the wind and moon in the south of the river, when waking up from the dream, it only left Xie Changlin full of confusion and powerlessness.

Thousands of years ago, thousands of years later, Xie Changlin was completely defeated in front of God's will.

He glanced at Li Murong lightly, and walked away from them, as if he saw something that Su Chan once liked.

As long as Su Chan liked him, he could get his life back under Xie Changlin's hands.

When the person walked away, or even completely disappeared from sight, Li Murong came back to her senses. Her eyes went black for a while, and the clothes on her back were all stuck to her spine. The cold sweat was blown by the wind, and she was severely beaten. a shudder.

"Third Sister, are you okay?" Xu Chensheng grabbed her arm and supported the dizzy Li Murong, "It was the devil and the prince just now... the prince, is he..."

"Don't ask," Li Murong shook his head slightly, "Let's keep going, we can't turn back at this time."

"Second brother..." Her eyes seemed to have sand in her eyes, and her surroundings were a little red, "You have a heavier burden than me. Even if I stop, you have to keep going, okay?"

"...Okay," Xu Chensheng sighed and said softly.

The direction Xie Changlin was going was the Iron Armored Army's garrison. After such a long time of attacking and defending, under the leadership of Su Baishi, the Iron Armored Army had successfully retreated for ten miles, but these vicious corpses obviously had no intention of stopping, even if he withdrew to the hinterland of Dachu , Presumably these things will follow along the way.

Such a risky behavior, even the commander of the Badu army was a little scared.

Marshal Badu's name is Te Aji, and he has fought against Su Baishi several times, which can be regarded as a sympathy for each other.

Half a month ago, he was dispatched by Lord Shentu to lead hundreds of people across the river. These people were all wearing Jiren and allotted charms, able to hide their whereabouts, and they were broken into parts and mixed into surrounding counties. Unexpectedly, the entire Iron Armored Army had nothing to investigate.

But Te Aji himself did not agree with this action. Firstly, he did not think that Badu was the opponent of Dachu, and secondly, he did not bother with such conspiracy. On the battlefield on horseback, let a group of corpses lead the battle, and what is the ability to retreat behind.

But Theaji has strategies and tactics, and is not afraid of death, but he is very shy in front of Ji Renyu. Whenever he sees this Lord Shentu, he will feel terrified, and consciously back away three feet.

What's more, the Badu tribe has a decree that Shentu can dispatch soldiers and horses around at will, except for Khan, no one has the ability to stop it, so Teaji is now an empty display, worried that the big Chu will backlash, and Badu will suffer heavy casualties; He was also worried that Su Baishi would die, and since then he would have one less opponent.

Te Aji weighed it, and even felt that Su Baishi was more important out of these two points. After all, it is not easy to subjugate a country, and it is too easy to kill a person.

"Damn it," Teaji stood on a small high slope with a bodyguard and raised his eyes, "What do you mean now, Lord Shentu's brain is broken, if this fight continues, it will kill Badu, right? ?!"

The little guard didn't understand, so he asked in a daze, "Commander, is the Iron Armored Army frustrated now? Badu's morale is high, are you saying the opposite?"

"Damn it, what do you know? If Da Chu really wants to fight, he will only wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and we will keep it safe so that we will never return. When the time comes, your head will be mine." , and wiped it on the neck, "It's all other people's heads."

Although what Te Aji said was good, the reinforcements have not come for a long time. Not to mention the heavy casualties of the Iron Armored Army, I am afraid that the ten miles of road are already full of corpses, and the casualty ratio even exceeds [-]%.

Fifty percent casualties are fatal to an elite army. Each of them is a master of ten. They can coordinate tasks according to their own judgment on the battlefield. They may be generals in the future, but now they can only be meaningless. His sacrifice was on the border of Suizhou, where the yellow sand is long.

Sun Yi's bossy bosses have all disappeared, his clean and beautiful clothes are in a mess, his forearm is injured, his hair is in a mess, his whole body is disheveled, and he looks crazy, but it is quite suitable for the occasion.

Even Su Baishi said when he saw him like this just now, "Director Sun has blended in too much. Although my iron armored man is sloppy, he is not so sloppy, right?" Sun Yi rolled his eyes.

With his hands in his sleeves, he gently stroked the edge of the black gold talisman paper with his fingertips, and said with a straight face, "I'll go outside to see the situation, and we can discuss everything after I come back."
