Rebirth of Tao Yao

The way back seemed to be easier than when he came, and the smell of blood in the air was thicker, but he met a lot less barbarians along the way, so few that he only met once on the way back.In addition, there was no need to go alley by alley to find someone, and when Yan Li stepped out of the South City Gate again, it only took more than an hour, which was fast compared to others.

It is really convenient to move alone, and before the mid-day of the moon, Yan Li finally found the group of people waiting for him on the West Mountain.

Gao Dashan saw Yan Li's return by the moonlight, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly led everyone out of the darkness to greet him: "Boss, you are back, how is the city, shall we go back to the city?" ?”

He couldn't wait to ask, which was what everyone was anxious to know, even Wen Ziran and Rou Jia didn't interrupt.But Wen Ziran smelled the strong smell of blood on Yan Li's body, she was not sure whether Yan Li was injured, so she groped and approached Yan Li.The latter noticed it, and was afraid that she would fall, so he quickly stretched out his hand to support her.

Yan Li didn't make a fool of himself, Dang even told Gao Dashan and others about the situation in the city, and then said: "There is still a confrontation in the city, the loss of the defenders is not as great as we imagined, you don't have to worry too much. Father means It is to let us go back outside the northern city to gather the remnant soldiers, and then maybe we will use this to cooperate with the defenders in the city to encircle the Hu soldiers in the city. You can go with me if you want, and you can choose to return to the city if you don’t want to.”

With a young mind, they suddenly heard Yan Li say that General Yan had entrusted them with a heavy responsibility, and saw Yan Li take out Yan Qing's trump card, all of them immediately became excited.Even someone patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, boss, we'll go with you!"

No one refuted this, they were just worried about their parents in the city, and they didn't want to see the barbarians slaughtering the people.But now that he knew that the situation in the city was not that bad, and that the people who should have fled also fled, he was relieved for the most part, and he was thinking about making meritorious deeds.

For a moment, everyone's emotions were agitated, and then two voices sounded one after another.

Rou Jia asked: "Yan Li, you went back to the city and saw General Yan, did he tell me where my father is?" Obviously he still didn't believe that King Yan just ran away, not only leaving behind the people in the city, but also Get off her.

Wen Ziran also opened her mouth, but it was not about personal matters. She asked suspiciously: "Brother, you said that when you returned to the city at night, you only met Hu people once. What about the defenders, how many times have you met them? Are there fewer Hu people?"

Yan Li glanced across the faces of the two girls, and returned to Roujia first: "My father rushed to the north gate when the city was broken, and he didn't know the whereabouts of King Yan." After speaking, he replied to Wen Ziran: "There are fewer barbarians at night, and the defenders met three times. However, both sides are exhausted after a day and night of fighting, and it is possible to take a short rest after dark."

That's the way it is said, but everyone can see it clearly outside the city today.Ever since King Yan's Wang Jia led the people to escape from the south gate, there were quite a few Hu soldiers chasing after him from the south gate.Although they didn't count, until they withdrew to the west mountain, there must have been hundreds of horsemen chasing them.No one knows how many people chased out in the next half day, but the Hu people must have known about Yan Wang, a big fish.

After being reminded by Wen Ziran, Yan Li couldn't help but wonder, did all the barbarians in the city go after King Yan?Noble King Yan Tianhuang, if something happened to him at the border, no one would feel better.However, if the Hu people were really lured away by him, the pressure on the city over there would suddenly ease...

If you are not sure and have no way to prove it, it is useless to think about it.The little general has always been pragmatic, so he quickly suppressed this thought for the time being. He looked at Wen Ziran beside him again, and said to her in a low voice: "I went back to take a look when I turned back. There is no one in your small courtyard. Auntie She probably didn't go back last night, she probably stayed in the restaurant."

The street where the General's Mansion is located is usually the safest, and the rogues don't dare to make trouble.But once the barbarians entered the city and found the General's Mansion, that street became the most dangerous.When Yan Li went there, he saw how many corpses were piled up on the street, including barbarians and personal guards from various families. When he returned, the general's mansion had not yet been captured, but the door was still stained with blood. It was easy to imagine the tragedy before .

Under such circumstances, the small courtyard of Wen's family next door was not involved too much, because there was neither anyone nor property in it, and the barbarians went in and searched it quickly before leaving in distaste.The courtyard door was left wide open, and no one wanted to go in for a second time.

Wen Ziran couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief when she heard these words. Of course, she knew the danger near the general's mansion at such a time, and also knew the risk Yan Li would take when he went back.But now she and Yan Li are not brother and sister, but Yan Li is willing to take the risk for her, she can't help being moved, but at this moment, thousands of words come to her lips, but only one sentence: "Thank you, brother."

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

Now that they knew that the situation in the city was not one-sided, everyone on the west mountain was relieved a lot, and they were not worried that the Hu people would send people to search the mountain after they discovered the fire in the mountain, so they rekindled the bonfire.

Except for Yan Li, everyone who was waiting on the west mountain was almost equivalent to resting for a whole day. In addition, they got some not-so-bad news and were entrusted with important tasks by General Yan, so they all gathered around the bonfire and gossiped in high spirits.Gao Dashan also conveniently drew the terrain outside the North City, and discussed with everyone where it is suitable to hide, and where the remnant soldiers who were scattered by the Hu people's attack on the camp would hide.

The teenagers were discussing enthusiastically, only Yan Li didn't talk much from the beginning to the end.Wen Ziran still stayed by his side, and didn't dislike his bloody smell. After a while, he quietly pulled the hem of La Yanli's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Brother, you should rest for a while when you are tired."

Running around and fighting for two consecutive days is really not easy for a young man who has never been on the battlefield.Yan Li was already very tired, but he would not reveal his weak side, so even the discerning people like Gao Dashan didn't see the tiredness on his face, so they dragged him to discuss with great interest Tomorrow's itinerary.But people with discerning eyes can't see it, but Wen Ziran seems to "see" it, which makes Yan Li a little surprised.

Yan Li turned his head sideways, looked at Wen Ziran silently, and did not speak.

Wen Ziran seemed to have noticed something, she also turned her head to "look" at Yan Li, then seemed to hesitate for a moment, and suddenly stretched out her hand to wrap Yan Li's head.Without noticing the resistance, she slowly pulled the person over and let him lean on her immature and thin shoulders.

Without Wen Ziran's knowledge, this scene fell into everyone's eyes, and the voice of the conversation subsided unconsciously.

Yan Li naturally saw the startled eyeballs of the teenagers almost popping out, but he didn't care what these people thought.He just raised his eyes slightly to look at Wen Ziran's delicate cheeks, smelling the faint fragrance of his upper body through his nose, fatigue swept over him unconsciously while relaxing.So he obeyed his will, leaned on the girl's shoulder and slowly closed his eyes.

Not long after, Yan Li fell asleep, but the amazement and silence around the campfire continued...

The next day, when the sky was twilight, Yan Li woke up.When he woke up, he was no longer leaning on Wen Ziran's shoulder, but the two were still close to each other.Recalling what happened last night, he felt a little strange in his heart, but before he could think too much, he heard a low voice from the side asking: "Boss Yan, are you awake?"

Yan Li looked up, and saw a young man on the left looking at him with burning eyes.He was holding a branch in his hand, and a bonfire that was about to burn out was still burning in front of him. It was obviously the last night watchman's turn—speaking of which, he went to bed early last night, and Gao Dashan and others didn't call him When he got up to watch the night, he fell asleep until dawn.

Climbing up slowly, without alarming Wen Ziran, Yan Li asked softly, "What's wrong?"

The young man was six, and everyone called him Xiao Liu. He was the one who lent his bow to Yan Li when he was chased by the barbarians.The young man who had been bored during the night watch for a long time was full of gossip at this moment, he moved to Yan Li's side, wanting to say something, but because of the deep impression of Yan Li's cruelty and blackness in the past, he wanted to say something After a while, he only dared to glance at Wen Ziran, and asked in a low voice, "Is this sister-in-law?"

Yan Li was slightly startled by his question, subconsciously reprimanded: "What nonsense!"

After all, Xiao Liu was not as bold as Gao Dashan, and the memory of being beaten up by Yan Li in the past emerged, and he didn't dare to say anything.He shrank his neck and moved back, but he didn't see Yan Li looking sideways at Wen Ziran, with the confusion flashing in his eyes.

Yan Li is very aware of his identity, so from the very beginning Gao Dashan's jokes to Gao Dashan's "little daughter-in-law" later, he never took it to heart.But some words can always shake people's hearts after listening too much, not to mention that Yan Li is very clear that he is really different from Wen Ziran, from the beginning to the end, this is beyond the explanation of "Wen Ziran is not afraid of him"...

Before he knew it, Yan Li became distracted, and what he was thinking about might not even be clear to him.

Time passed for a long time in Yan Li's daze, and the sky gradually brightened, and everyone sleeping beside the campfire woke up one after another.When the first person sat up, Yan Li came back to his senses, he stood up suddenly, greeted Xiao Liu, who was watching the night, and left in a hurry.

When Yan Li came back with wild fruits and clear water, the group of people were all awake.He distributed the clear water wild fruits to the crowd, and put the two nests of bird eggs that he picked up by hand under the bonfire that had just gone out to cook, and then gave them all to Wen Ziran as "snacks".

Such obvious differential treatment was naturally noticed by everyone, the teenagers exchanged glances, and the little princess groaned in dissatisfaction.

Normally, Yan Li wouldn't even talk to Rou Jia.But today for some reason, when he heard Roujia's dissatisfied complaints, he hesitated for a moment, and for the first time, he divided two bird eggs from Wen Ziran's hands and handed them over.

The little princess looked terrified, but she didn't dare to answer: "You, what are you doing?"

Yan Li put on a cold face, and said angrily: "Didn't you say that all girls should be treated equally?"

Rou Jia looked at the two pitiful bird eggs stuffed into her hands, and then at the handful in Wen Ziran's hands, she didn't think it was equal treatment at all!She looked at Yan Li more and more suspiciously, and muttered: "Why do I think you are a little guilty?"
