Blade of Wind

Two days later, Ruhua and the other death squads came back.

I was very happy and ran out of Gaomen to pick them up despite the obstruction of some officials.

Although Ru Hua looked dusty and dusty, her left hand was still tied around her neck with a bandage, but her complexion was not bad, and so did the others.

I breathed a sigh of relief, spared them from saluting, and asked how the trip was going.

When they come back, it will be much safer than when we went together.Since we separated, we have only encountered monsters twice, and both of them acted alone, without the same organization and scale as in Zhenzhou.

Although Ruhua's broken arm is still not healed, she still looks like she hasn't enjoyed the beating. Hearing that the rebellion has already subsided, she even sighs regretfully, saying that at least he wants to kill a few rebels himself before he is reconciled.

I couldn't help laughing, and said: "If I wait for you to rush back, I don't know how many times I will die."

Ru Hua raised her eyebrows and said, "If the Lord dies, I will avenge you."

I was startled, and Mo Yekong yelled beside me, dumbfounded: "Ruhua."

"It's okay!" I smiled and waved my hands, then patted Ruhua's shoulder, and said, "Good brother, you have a sense of loyalty. But what if I... die of wrongdoing?"

"My lord will not lose my way." Ruhua blurted out without any hesitation.

...he has confidence in me.

Ruhua looked down at me, and repeated seriously: "The Lord is a good man, and he will not lose his way."

Ever since I was a child, I have been scolded many times as "stupid", "idiot", "violent" and "unscrupulous"... It turns out that this guy Ruhua has issued a good person card today, which really makes me feel complicated.

I didn't know what to say, so I just froze there after laughing.

Mo Yekong sighed, and said: "Everyone has been running all the way, the Lord should let them go back to the camp to rest first."

I hurriedly nodded in accordance with his intentions, and said: "Everyone has worked hard, go back and have a good rest."

A group of people saluted again and went back to the camp.

Mo Yekong said to me again: "My lord, please go back to the palace too."

I nodded, turned around and walked back, and asked him: "You said that Ruhua and the others didn't encounter any monsters when they came back, what's the matter?"

Mo Yekong followed, and instead of answering, he asked, "What does the lord mean?"

I recalled the battle in Zhenzhou City that day, frowned, and said: "We didn't wipe out all the demons in Wudan that day, at least one-third of them retreated. And the key demon leader should It also retreated. Speaking of it, it should hate us to the bone. When you look at it, it is ambushing and attacking the city, and it is targeting us. But when we came back, Ruhua and the others were all wounded. , the combat power is not even half of what it was when we went there, and it is so easy for the monster to deal with them, why did they let them come back safely? With its intelligence that can design ambushes and command the siege, you don’t know this, right? "

Mo Yekong pondered for a while, and said: "In fact, not only Zhenzhou, but also several other deserted states have no information about monsters recently. It's as if they all disappeared at once."

"Not so fast?" I said, "Even if there is a king in power, there will be fewer and fewer monsters, but there is no such sudden disappearance, right? They have to come out to hunt too?"

"However, demons don't only feed on humans and livestock." Mo Yekong frowned as he said this.

I also frowned, "You mean...they will eat injured monsters?"

Although I know that they are just demons, subconsciously, I have already regarded them as opponents with advanced intelligence, so this kind of speculation makes my chest churn, and I feel a little disgusted.

Mo Yekong nodded with a solemn expression, "I'm worried that they may be lurking somewhere to recharge their batteries and prepare for the next operation."

"...Next move? What will happen to them?" I pressed.

Mo Yekong smiled wryly, and shook his head, "It would be great if I could know. But who knows what the demons are thinking?"

When he said that, I froze for a moment.I thought to myself, maybe the idea of ​​monsters is actually much simpler than that of humans, and it is not necessarily true.Human beings want money, power, beauty, sex, and material desires, while demons may just want to be full.

But it's not quite right. If they just want to eat, they won't have an organized and premeditated attack on a certain target, right?

I sighed and gave up the idea of ​​continuing to guess those monsters.

Anyway, no matter what they want to do, we can only block them with soldiers and cover them with water.

In the evening, Mo Yekong was the host and invited members of the Death Squad to dinner, as well as me and Xiu Huang.

Although most of the daredevils and I don't have any personal relationships, but we have been through life and death together several times, and the relationship is always different.

So Mo Yekong came to invite me, and I happily accepted.

Naturally, Xiu Huang did not refuse.

Even Aao said that he wanted to go together. Although Mo Yekong was a little surprised, he didn't object.Of course, I would prefer that Ao can get in touch with more people, just to relax.

So we went together that night.

The banquet was held in the courtyard of Mo Yekong's house. Mo Yekong knew that I didn't like the idea of ​​making distinctions, so he didn't prepare a special one for us, so he just picked an empty seat and sat down.Everyone has been hanging out with me for so long, not to mention that it was just a private banquet, and most of them are not too formal.

The Death Squad originally had more than [-] people, but a few died when they went to Zhenzhou, and a few more died when I came back to suppress the rebellion. table.They are all members of the army, and the food is not refined, it is nothing more than drinking in big bowls and eating large pieces of meat.

I watched them talking and laughing loudly, clinking glasses and punching each other, and I couldn't help feeling a little sentimental.

Mo Yekong poured me a glass of wine and asked, "What's wrong, my lord? You don't look very happy?"

"No," I smiled, "I just remembered that when the Death Squad was first established, everyone and I disliked each other, and now most of them don't see each other."

Mo Ye was silent for a while, and said calmly: "Actually, it's nothing. Everyone is a soldier, and they have this awareness for a long time. Besides, when the Lord unfurled that flag, everyone was prepared. Moreover, the brothers all died well. , did not die in vain."

Whether he died in vain or not, we will never know until all the monsters are really wiped out.

Besides, it doesn't matter if you die well or not, to die is to die.

Only at this time can I get a little bit of Admiral Yang's mood when he looks at the number of soldiers killed on both sides after each battle.

Feeling a bit heavy, he didn't reply to Mo Yekong's words, but just picked up the glass of wine and drank it down.
