Rebirth of Tao Yao

Yan Li and the others slept in the open on the west mountain for one night, and set off for the south gate of the border town again in the early morning of the next day.

They rested all night, but they didn't go fast.Yan Li and the others practiced martial arts all the year round, but Rou Jia walked all day yesterday and slept in the open, and woke up this morning with sore body, almost unable to walk.Fortunately, the little princess was accompanied by two loyal subordinates, and she herself was not a hypocritical person who couldn't tell the situation clearly, so the trip was not delayed because of this.

Even so, the group of people walked down the west mountain and saw the south gate of the border city more than an hour later than Yan Li expected.Before going down the mountain, the little general looked at the golden horse, which was still holding its head up and its chest up, and suddenly begged the horse from Roujia.The little princess didn't ask anything, but he didn't expect that when he saw the golden horse again, his head was already drooping, and his fur was covered in mud!

Looking at the golden horse at this time, it still has the majesty and majesty before, it looks like it has been rolled in the mud for a few laps.

The little princess didn't accept the reins handed back by Yan Li, and somewhat disliked the dirty golden horse, so the maid who followed her took the horse back.The golden horse, who was disliked by the owner just now, looked at the maid. The horse's face was covered with mud, and the pair of black eyes were pitiful, as if two tears would roll out in the next moment...

The maid calmly looked away and did not look at the golden horse again.She held the rein with one hand, and still supported Roujia with the other, and with half support and half support, she finally led her down the western mountain.

The moment she finally saw the city gate, the little princess almost burst into tears. She pulled the maid and said with tears in her eyes: "Finally back to the city! I want to tell my father, I want to tell my grandpa, I want to take those damned things!" The barbarians beat the crap out of..."

Although it was only a day of living outside the city, for the little princess, the fright and danger she encountered in this day was something she had never experienced in her entire life.Not to mention her, even the rest of the teenagers were very excited when they saw the city gate, wishing they could run down the mountain now, knock on the city gate and go home, wash up, eat well, sleep well, and nourish their feet. The spirit went into battle to kill the enemy.

Everyone was very excited, and their steps down the mountain couldn't help being much lighter.But at this moment, a soft female voice suddenly said: "Wait, wait a minute, there seems to be something wrong in the city."

This voice was not loud, and everyone was about to go home, chatting and laughing with their companions, so that they couldn't hear clearly.Until Yan Li also opened his mouth, his voice was clear and cold, as if a basin of ice water was being poured over their heads as soon as he uttered it, most of the agitation in everyone's hearts was extinguished abruptly: "Shut up! stop!"

As soon as the voice fell, the effect was almost immediate. The people who were still noisy immediately shut up, and the mountain road returned to tranquility.

This time there was no need for Wen Ziran to remind them again, they were getting closer and closer to the border town, and the surroundings became quiet again, so the noise in the city came to everyone's ears along with the mountain wind.

Gao Dashan couldn't help but wondered first: "What's the matter, why is it so noisy in the city?"

Anyone who has lived in the border town for a long time knows that once a war breaks out, most of the people in the border town choose to hide at home.Because two legs can't run with four legs, if you flee out of the city rashly, you probably won't be able to escape the barbarians' cavalry.Instead of this, it would be safer to hide some at home, at least for the speed of looting, the barbarians would not deliberately go to hide, setting fire was another matter.

This is almost the consensus of everyone in the border town, so every time there is a war, the city is very quiet.If there is a commotion in the city at this time, either someone is causing chaos in the city, or there is a change in the war, such as a rout, such as anxiety.

However, the barbarians were only seen yesterday, and it has only been one night. The teenagers do not believe that the war will change so quickly.

Everyone couldn't help but looked at each other, all at a loss.They stopped their progress, obediently obeyed Yan Li's previous instructions, and stopped on the mountainside not far from the foot of the mountain.Ten or so pairs of eyes looked at the direction of the border city together, seeming to be puzzled, but also seemed to be quietly watching the changes.

As a result, they didn't make them wait for long. In fact, just as everyone stood still, the originally closed south gate of the border city suddenly opened.Accompanied by the "bang" sound of the opening of the city gate, a few people carrying their burdens rushed out first, and then a dozen or so. He rushed out of the city gate.

The people on the mountain were stunned, and some people couldn't believe it: "This, this, they are starting to flee?!"

This question needs no answer, because anyone with eyes can see it.Moreover, the gates of the city would not be opened easily during wartime. Now that the gates are open, there must be a military order... Looking at the situation, everyone hardly dared to think about the battle situation at the north gate.

Wen Ziran can't see the situation, but she has ears, and can hear the voices of people down the mountain, and she can also hear the words of everyone.So little by little, her already fair cheeks became paler, and her white teeth bit her thin lips tightly, gradually showing a tinge of blood.Then slowly, this bit of bright red pooled into a stream of blood, which slid down the corner of the mouth.

The white skin, the bright red blood, against the backdrop of the hatchback is shocking.

Wen Ziran didn't notice it herself, but Yan Li saw it, and hurriedly reached out to pinch her chin, and shouted: "Let go!"

With this low shout, Wen Ziran subconsciously let go of her mouth, and the sweetness of blood poured into her mouth, which made her realize what she had done before.But she couldn't help it, couldn't help thinking about what would happen to A-Niang after the city was broken, couldn't help recalling the warning nightmare last night, couldn't help being afraid that A-Niang was really like her previous life... no, even two years earlier than her previous life... Died in the war.

Yan Li also remembered the nightmare that Wen Ziran had last night. He could comfort her that everything was fake, but now, can he still say that everything is fake? !Yan Li was speechless for a while, so she reached out and touched Wen Ziran's head, comforting her silently.

****************************************************************************

More and more people fled from the south gate, and after a while, they saw King Yan's chariot also squeezed out among the crowd.Compared with these people who were fleeing in a hurry, Wang Jia looked much calmer, and there were many imperial guards guarding him, looking majestic.It's just that the speed of the car was much faster than usual, which easily exposed that the group of people was not so calm when they evacuated.

The little princess was almost dumbfounded watching Wang Jia appear, and then "killed" a bloody path among the fleeing people to escape.Her almond eyes were wide open, her small mouth was slightly opened, and she was speechless for a long time.In the end, he squeezed out a sentence under the different eyes of everyone: "No, that's not my father, my father won't run away at this time!"

Rou Jia really didn't believe it, her father was not an idiot, so he wouldn't run away in a hurry at the beginning of the war.What's more, running with such fanfare, if the border city is really broken, and the barbarian cavalry chases away, what use will the imperial guards accompanying the guards be able to do?

If you want her to tell her, King Yan must either stay in the border town and earn military merits if he wins, or he will leave quietly, why make himself a target?

Not long after thinking about it like this, something happened at the south gate—there were some barbarians chasing after them, and they raised their butcher knives at the fleeing people!

The teenagers on the mountainside were all young and full of vigor. They watched the barbarians slaughter their compatriots, and naturally all of them were filled with hatred.However, before these teenagers rushed down with enthusiasm, they were dragged away by Yan Li one by one by the collars on the back of their necks.

There were only ten of them together, plus Wen Ziran and Rou Jia who were basically powerless, what would happen to hundreds of barbarian cavalry?Rushing down is nothing more than hitting an egg against a rock!

Yan Li looked cold and serious, facing several panicked and angry teenagers, calmly made a decision: "Let's go, go back to the mountain first."

Gao Dashan was the first one who was unwilling. He widened his eyes and said angrily: "How is this possible?! Our parents, our brothers, and the compatriots we want to protect are all at the foot of the mountain and in the border town. How could you just escape like this?!"

Yan Li didn't even raise his eyelids when he heard the words, he grabbed the weeds beside the road, and asked: "Then what are you going to do? Now run down and let the barbarians kill many dead souls, this is you, it's you!" What destination did you choose?!" He said bluntly, turned his backhand to guide the direction of the gate and said: "You have all seen that the barbarians entered through the north gate and exited through the south gate, they attacked the city, and the border city was destroyed!"

After saying this, Yan Li's complexion finally turned ugly to the naked eye.He is indeed cold-tempered, so that when he saw the tragic situation at the foot of the mountain, he was the first person to calm down.But this does not mean that there is no fluctuation in his heart. He can actually imagine what his father, his only relative, as the guard of the border city, will encounter after the city is broken.

Everyone's homes are in the border town, and now that the border town is broken, no one is at ease.But Wen Ziran endured it, and so did Yan Li, they all knew that rash actions would only bring unnecessary casualties, and the real war would not be changed because of these little pawns.

Xu Shiyan Li's complexion was so ugly that Gao Dashan and the others didn't dare to speak after all.But hiding back on the West Mountain like this, everyone was obviously not reconciled, so the two sides confronted each other, and no one let go first.

Then Rou Jia, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "I don't believe my father just ran away like that, I want to go to the city to see what happened!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Li vetoed sharply: "Don't go!"

Roujia became anxious immediately, she didn't believe that King Yan had escaped, and she didn't believe that her father would leave her behind.So he glared at Yan Li with red eyes, and said angrily: "This is my business, I don't need your permission."

Yan Li glanced at her coldly, then sneered and said, "Don't talk about entering the city, do you think you can get close to the city gate?"

Roujia was choked up immediately, she turned her head to look at the city gate down the mountain, where a few barbarian cavalry would chase out from time to time.Although the number of people was always small, she and her maids and guards combined were only three people. It was really unlucky to meet a barbarian, and there was really no chance to run away.

The little princess had a stubborn face, she couldn't refute Yan Li's words, but she didn't want to give up her plan either.At this moment, she heard Yan Li say: "The unknown situation in the city is also very unfavorable to us. You go back to Xishan first, and I will go to the city to find out."
