I became an NPC in Wuxia Paradise

Chapter 169
"Hey."

In the handsome tent, Zhao Kuo leaned on the cushioned bed and sighed.

His face was thin and pale, and his whole person was shrouded in a sad atmosphere.

It had been besieged by the Qin army for more than half a month. Several attempts to break out of the siege ended in failure.
The only hope is the 30 rear troops he left behind.

But seeing that there hadn't been half a reinforcement in such a long time, Zhao Kuo estimated that the situation of those people was not much better than himself.

Thinking about it, even he is not the opponent of Bai Qi and Wang Lu, so how could the person he left to lead the rear army do anything?
Now maybe like him, he is besieged by the Qin army somewhere, and he has to wait for him to rescue him, right?
"Hey."

Zhao Kuo sighed again.

"Am I really going to die in this place uselessly?"

He is not reconciled, the crown prince is clearly in front of him, why did the situation become like this?

It's all Qin Jun's fault!

If those people hadn't tricked him and secretly sent Bai Qi here, he wouldn't have been so rash and ended up in this situation!

Thinking of the place of resentment, Zhao Kuo took a bite of the big stick bone in his hand.

I just took a bite, but I didn't eat anything.

Looking down, he saw that this bone had been gnawed so clean that there wasn't even a trace of minced meat.

Thinking about how he had never chewed bones before eating meat?
Zhao Kuo felt aggrieved in his heart.

He casually threw the bone on the table beside the bed, and prepared to take another piece to eat, so as to relieve the boredom in his heart.

As a result, when he reached out his hand, he found that the plate was empty, and he had already eaten all the flesh and blood inside.

Zhao Kuo was slightly taken aback, and was about to grab the meat from another plate next to him.

But just when the hand was about to touch it, the hand was fixed there.

Because it hadn't been long since it was out of the pot, white steam was steaming on the big bones covered with a lot of white meat.

With the breeze blowing from outside the tent, the aroma of meat spread, and Zhao Kuo couldn't help but swallowed his saliva when he smelled it.

After hesitating again and again, he endured it and didn't eat the meat.
Instead, he turned his head and picked the bones on another plate, wanting to see if there was anything edible on it.

But no matter how hard he looked for the finished food, it was impossible to conjure meat out of thin air. Zhao Kuo was disappointed after searching twice.

"Hey, that's right! There's still bone marrow to eat!"

Thinking that there was food in those gnawed bones, Zhao Kuo hurriedly picked up a piece,
Under the internal force of the submerged movement, the thick stick bone was broken into two pieces with a click,

Seeing the white and waxy bone marrow inside, Zhao Kuo impatiently sucked it.

After a while, he ate all the big stick bones,

Now there really is nothing left to eat on those bones.

Unless Zhao Kuo is the reincarnation of a wolf dog, even the bones will not be spared.

It's just that there are dozens of bone marrows, not to mention a few big stick bones. For the upright young man Zhao Kuo, they are no more than stuffing between his teeth.

Gollum.

It was extremely quiet in the handsome tent where he was the only one, and the whine of his stomach seemed particularly harsh.

Zhao Kuo rubbed his stomach, and once again set his eyes on the bones covered in white meat, with a tormented and hesitant expression on his face.

In order to pursue the defeated Qin army, he had ordered his troops to travel with light vehicles, and each person only had enough food and grass for three days.

In the end, I didn't want the Qin army to feign defeat and surrounded them. As a result, the army has been out of food for more than half a month now.

They ate all the edible grass and bark around them, but they couldn't withstand the consumption of 10 people.

They could only kill horses to satisfy their hunger, but this did not last long.

In the end, they were forced to have no choice but to take those seriously injured and dying wounded,

They were killed on the pretext of sending them on their way so that they would not suffer from pain, and then they were stewed and eaten!
The steaming plate of white meat in front of him was human flesh!

At this time, most of the people in the army had already eaten, and they had eaten for several days!

He should have corrected his mentality long ago and ate together,
Fortunately, his confidant Ximen Chuifeng had already anticipated this.
When the horses were killed, one was left untouched, which allowed him to enjoy the horse meat for several days alone.

It's just that he had eaten up all the last horse bones just now.

If he still wants to fill his stomach right now, he can only eat the meat of those soldiers and generals under his command!

But that’s human flesh!

Zhao Kuo couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart!

Gollum.

The stomach growled again.

Hungry people don't know what kind of meat they can eat and what kind of meat they can't eat. For them, the meat that can fill their stomachs is good meat.

"Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo, when was it? Do you still think about these things?"

Zhao Kuo convinced himself silently.

"You eat pigs, sheep, fish, horses, deer, and bears. What can humans not eat?"

"To put it bluntly, isn't that a lump of meat? Eat it! If you don't eat it, you will starve to death!"

Zhao Kuo took a few deep breaths, and slowly stretched out his slightly trembling hand towards the plate of steaming white meat.

When he first touched the soft and rotten meat that was stewed, a strange feeling spread from his fingers to Zhao Kuo's whole body,
Accompanied by the smell of meat, he felt his stomach churning, and he spit out all the horse meat he ate just now!

The physical discomfort made Zhao Kuo, who had been suppressed for a long time, angry from his heart, and Yang Tian shouted:
"Bai Qi! Wang Yan! I want you to die!"

After shouting, he still felt that it was not enough, so he picked up the horse bone and human flesh on the table, and threw it out.

At this time, the curtain of the camp tent was suddenly lifted,

Ximen Fengfeng rushed in with a surprised expression on his face.

"Your Highness, outside..."

He just said three words, only to feel that his eyes went dark, and something hit him.

Ximen Hairy hurriedly wanted to dodge.

However, he was excited at this time, and he never thought that something could attack him in the handsome tent where Zhao Kuo was.
Caught off guard, he was smashed all over his head and face by several bones and flesh, making him look dazed and panicked.

He was relieved when he saw that it wasn't a hidden weapon, but just some bones and flesh.

Regardless of the dripping water on his face and the scarlet spots left by the skin cut by the bone,
Ximen Chuuxue said excitedly: "Your Highness, someone has come to save us!"

Zhao Kuo was in a bad mood, and when he saw Ximen Fengfeng coming in without first reporting, he was about to scold and vent his anger.
Upon hearing the other party's words, the whole person jumped up from the soft bed one after another like a cat whose tail was trampled on.

He rushed to the front of Ximen Fengfeng's body like flying, pinching the other's arms with both hands: "You, what are you talking about?!!!"

"Reinforcement! Your Highness, our people are here to save us!"

Ximen Fengfeng was also very excited, he didn't care that both arms were pricked by Zhao Kuo's nails and said:
"The Qin army was in chaos just now, and the entire army was full of flames. I saw the flags of our Zhao army flying around!"

"Hahahaha!"

When Zhao Kuo heard the words, he looked up to the sky and laughed: "I, Zhao Kuo, will never die! Ximen, who will lead the army to rescue?"

"That brat Xu Yi? Well, this king has underestimated him, so I will make him a general when I go back this time!"

"Forehead……"

Ximen Fengfeng's face was full of excitement, but when he heard Zhao Kuo's words, he suddenly showed a strange expression.

Zhao Kuo saw this and asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

"Your Highness, look at the handsome flag, it says "Lian"..."

"inexpensive?"

Zhao Kuo was taken aback. In the entire Zhao Kingdom, there was only one person surnamed Lian who could command the army.

"You mean Lian Po sent people to kill us?! But wasn't he dismissed by me? How could..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Kuo Yufeng turned around and said: "It doesn't matter, just let him go, it's a good job to come and save me!"

Saying that, he walked out of the tent with Sima Fengfeng.

The place where he was trapped was on a hillside,

As soon as he got out of the tent, the Qin army's camp in the distance could be seen as a mess.

"Ximen, hurry up! Let's hurry up and use this opportunity to rush out of the encirclement and join Lian Po!"

Over there, Ximen Fengfeng was leading his orders to prepare, when he heard Zhao soldiers shouting excitedly from all around,

Under the surprised eyes of the two, the soldiers who had eaten human flesh for so many days and whose mood was suppressed to the extreme,
They picked up the weapons in their hands one after another, and without orders,

With a roar like a savage, he rushed down the hillside and killed the Qin army!
Zhao Kuo and Ximen Chuifeng looked at each other and knew that it was impossible to make those soldiers obey orders now.

At that moment, the two joined the team rushing down the mountain without saying a word.

It's just that this trip is a road of no return for both of them.

The difference is that Ximen Hairy can still be resurrected, but Zhao Kuo cannot.

……

When cleaning the battlefield the next day, someone found Zhao Kuo's horrified death.

In the melee of the chaotic army, no matter whether it is His Highness, general, or soldier, everyone is equal, and everyone may die.

Soon, Zhao Kuo's death was determined to be due to the rebellion, and Qin was responsible for this hatred.

So far, in the Battle of Changping, the Zhao army narrowly won, and the Qin army was defeated miserably.
The commander-in-chief Bai Qi joined the enemy, the deputy commander Wang Lu died in battle, and all 40 soldiers were slaughtered, which was the end.
