After meeting him again

After the sick soldiers took the medicine, their condition was curbed and improved.The crisis suspended above his head has finally been expelled, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

When the general returned to the tent, he found a piece of Populus euphratica bark next to the desk, engraved on it: Beware of those people in the northwest, they will come again.

The handwriting is clear, and the engraving is fairly complete, it should have been engraved only recently.

"Who released this?" The general couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be him?"

In fact, the general can't guarantee that it is a fish demon, because the two of them are now in a hostile relationship.The fish demon had no reason to tell them this.

But the general was still a little worried, and after a while, he sent an order to let some people who had basically recovered and were in good physical condition go to practice.Others believed that proper exercise after recovery would strengthen the body, and no one objected.

In the morning of the next day, soldiers standing guard in the fringe area suddenly reported that there were many enemies attacking, and they were the same group as last time.

The general reacted quickly, and immediately organized all members to fight against the enemy with arms. In an instant, well-trained troops appeared in the center of the barracks.Following another order, a hundred or so people scattered in all directions, setting up an ambush.The others followed the general and stood ready with spears and swords.

Yinghuo sat on a branch of Populus euphratica quietly watching the coming war.

"There is still one day left, if you still can't play the trial, then you can only end in failure." This is Kai Yang reminding Yingzhuo again.

Yingzhuo replied: "The answer can be found today."

Kai Yang remained silent after hearing this, and just quietly observed his next actions.

The two armies and horses met quickly, and what the enemy did not expect was that the sick side of the general's side was almost healed.You must know that in the last battle, the listless people on the enemy side were sick soldiers.And they, at the cost of a thousand men, plagued the general's army, and were of no use at this time.

They immediately panicked.

At this time, the soldiers ambushing from all around suddenly rushed out, like arrows coming out of a string, dividing the enemy's large group of troops into small pieces and annihilating them one by one.

So the general's side didn't feel very good, and lost nearly 700 people, but in the end they won and completely defeated them.

This time thanks to that tip on the board.If they hadn't prepared ahead of time, they would have suffered at least twice as much damage as they do now.

However, what happened next made the general feel as if he had been struck by five thunderbolts.

While cleaning the battlefield, a soldier was cleaning a dilapidated tent and accidentally found a long-dead eagle with letters tied to its legs.The soldier presented the general with the body of the eagle.The general first observed the cause of the eagle's death, and found that it was pierced through the body, and it did not seem to be injured by a weapon.When he read the contents of the letter, his body trembled slightly, and his body couldn't help shaking.

Because it was a letter of private communication with the enemy, and it had been agreed on when to spread the plague, and then attacked the army by surprise.The general was a little unbelievable, because most of those people were just two or three years old, and their loyal generals were absolutely trustworthy.However, this kind of thing happened, and he was almost ambushed.

The general thought it had been two years since he had been stationed in the Northwest, of which more than 800 had been recruited just a year earlier.

Wait, more than 800 people!

The general had a sudden epiphany, and he had a guess that he couldn't believe.A year ago, they recruited soldiers in the northwest region.Does this mean that the enemy had sneaked into the barracks a year ago for today's battle.

The next corner of the note wrote this sentence, which confirmed his conjecture: Meng Chun is out of season, Zhong Qiu will do it again.From Mengchun to Zhongqiu, half a year has passed.Such a long time is enough for them to inquire about intelligence.

So they were targeted a year ago, and the hundreds of people eaten by the fish demon might be the ones who sneaked in.Thinking of this, the general ran out of the camp and went straight to the small river where he and the fish monster met for the first time.

The general ran along the river for a long time, but he didn't find the fish demon.

It hasn't rained here for a long time, and there is no replenishment of rainwater, and the water in the river is only flowing sparsely.The originally rare swimming fish in the river also surfaced due to lack of oxygen, dying, and only a few flicked their weak tail fins, splashing out waves.

And the general just continued to search along the river. He is a fish demon and cannot stay too far away from the water.And he owed him an apology.

At this moment, Yinghuo clapped her hands.Everything around him suddenly fell apart, and the running figure of the general gradually became blurred.

"It's over? Don't you want to see their ending?"

"If I read it, it would be the real failure." Yingzhuo joked, "Besides, I have already guessed the ending of the fish demon. He is dead, right?"

"Yes, but how do you know?"

"The white fish in the northwest can't live for a long time. Even if they become demons through cultivation, it's just the last reflection of their lives."

"You can't tell just by doing that."

"Of course, it's not only that. After the fish demon ate those people, I found a very faint miasma around him, which means that some of them have already suffered from the plague. And I used to be in the Southern Desolation , where miasma has been bred for thousands of years, it is not difficult to find them. And the medicine given to the general by the fish demon was refined by him after experiencing the plague himself and expending his own cultivation." Yingzhuo paused, Then he said, "This is undoubtedly another way to shorten his lifespan. His lifespan is not long in the first place. After such a toss, he will not have a few days left."

Kai Yang frowned outside the barrier, this newborn fairy is a bit capable, "Continue, let's talk about the rest."

Yingzhuo said again: "He should be considered dead. One of the struggling fish in the river should be him. The white fish is a good medicine, and he used all the medicinal properties of his body to practice the antidote. Cut off his last way of life."

After Yingzhuo finished speaking, a white light suddenly flashed in the void he was in, and then immediately dimmed.When Yinghuo opened her eyes again, she found that she had returned to reality.

Kai Yang was sitting beside him, holding a teacup in his hand.After seeing him come out, he put down the teacup slowly: "That's right, you passed the test."
