Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

Lu Zhiling has been following Xie Yunsong for many years. They are of similar age. Xie Yunsong took him to the battlefield for the first time. In his eyes, Xie Yunsong is not only his general, but also his best friend. Over the years, no matter good times or bad times, even when General Huaiyuan died, Xie Yunsong never showed any emotions in front of outsiders.

Even though he almost captured the Prince of Beidi just now, what a great achievement it was, he just remained indifferent.

This was the first time that Lu Zhiling saw him speak so harshly and lose his composure.

It can be seen how important Princess Rong'an is in his heart.

However, the county lady fell off a cliff and her whereabouts are unknown. If something really happened, how would General Xie deal with it? And how would he explain to General Weiyuan Bai Tingxuan?

Xie Yunsong had already hurried away. Lu Zhiling knew that he would go down in person, so he did not dare to stop him or think about it any more. He immediately gathered his men and followed Xie Yunsong.

Tianlin had already led a group of people to explore the way, and after walking a little further, the cliff gradually became flatter, but it was covered with a layer of old thorns and weeds, which were taller than a person's head.

Hundreds of people divided into several groups, holding torches to illuminate the way, and trudged down through the night. At dawn, they finally reached the bottom of the cliff.

Lu Zhiling followed Xie Yunsong closely, stood at the bottom of the cliff, holding a torch and looking around.

This place is sparsely populated, with huge dead trees and weeds as tall as a person everywhere, and it is dead silent.

Tianlin had led his men to conduct a carpet search, starting from the cliff fall point and then gradually expanding the scope. However, after a morning, apart from finding a broken branch and some bloodstains on a dead tree near the cliff, and finding the Baihong Sword that Bai Zhiyuan had dropped there, nothing else was found.

Xie Yunsong held tightly onto Bai Zhiyuan's dropped sword, his face gloomy.

There was no trace of Bai Zhiyuan or Yu Huangqing.

The light at the bottom of the cliff is dim and the search continues.

Bai Zhiyuan, who fell off the cliff, was fortunately supported by a dead tree and landed on an open space halfway up the cliff. She was not seriously injured, but she fainted on the cliff. When she woke up, it was already dark. She was covered in wounds and the sword in her hand was nowhere to be found. The most serious wound was on her leg.

She couldn't get up, and she was worried that Yu Huangqing would not give up and chase her down. She was also worried that she was covered in blood, and the smell of blood would attract wild beasts. She had no strength left in her body, and if she really encountered a wild beast, she would be eaten by it.

Bai Zhiyuan lay on the cliff, and the events of her past and present lives passed by one after another in front of her eyes. Perhaps it was her strong will to survive that made her, a person who was reborn, climb up with difficulty. She couldn't wait to die here, she still had a lot of things to do. There were also her father, mother, brother, and Xie Yunsong, and she couldn't bear to leave them.

Thinking this, Bai Zhiyuan dragged his injured leg and crawled forward step by step with difficulty.

She was thirsty, hungry and tired, but she still struggled to climb to a concave part of the mountain wall. She would take shelter there tonight, at least to avoid the attacks of wild animals. She would wait until the next morning to see how her strength recovered, and then make plans. After all, she really had no strength left.

Meanwhile, Tianlin was still searching with a military dog. He found a few drops of blood near a river, and the military dog ​​was barking at the river.

Tianlin led more than ten people down the river and slowly moved forward along the current. The underwater situation was unclear and the search was difficult.

Xie Yunsong remained silent, his face grim. He paused for a moment, without hesitation, took off his coat, jumped into the water, and disappeared.

"General——" Lu Zhiling shouted.

He was so anxious that he wanted to catch up. He saw Xie Yunsong slowly going down in the water and coming out again and again. This repeated several times. As dusk approached, everyone was exhausted. In addition, it was the coldest time of the year and the body was cold, so they had to stop searching and go ashore.

Xie Yunsong was soaking wet, his face was pale, and his hair was frozen. Lu Zhiling lit a bonfire nearby. As night fell, they still found nothing.

For the first time, Xie Yunsong felt extremely fearful and confused.

He stared at the campfire in front of him without saying a word, but he could not hide the worry and sadness in his eyes.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the longer Bai Zhiyuan stayed here, the more dangerous it would be.

Not only is it cold here, but if you stay outside for a night, you will either freeze to death or get frostbite. What's more, she was injured, and if she encountered a wild animal...

Xie Yunsong didn't dare to think too much, but he couldn't help thinking too much. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, and the more frightened he became.

Finally, he could no longer care about anything else, he stood up and shouted loudly: "Ayuan! Ayuan..."

At the bottom of the vast cliff, only the sound of the wind echoed him, and the silence made him despair.

Xie Yunsong did not give up, and regardless of the coldness on his body, he shouted again: "Ayuan..."

Tianlin and Lu Zhiling looked at his back, not daring to persuade him. They could only follow Xie Yunsong and shout, "County Lady!"

"County Master, where are you?"

"County Lady——"

Now I can only use this method, hoping that if Bai Zhiyuan hears it, he can give some response.

Suddenly, at this moment, Xie Yunsong heard a sharp sound in his ears. The sound was very short and very weak. At first, he thought he had heard it wrong. He glanced at Lu Zhiling and saw that he was also looking at him. Their eyes met and he heard another sound.

This time, the sound was louder, as if it came from the stone wall behind them.

The sound was like a scabbard hitting a stone wall.

Bai Zhiyuan's Baihong sword fell to the bottom of the cliff with her, but the scabbard was still on her body.

After she climbed up the stone wall with difficulty, she fell into a deep sleep. When she woke up again, it was already dark. Bai Zhiyuan felt despair in her heart. She couldn't move at all. She would either starve to death, freeze to death, or bleed to death.

Just when she was in despair, she heard a voice of "Ayuan!" coming from far away. She was stunned, and then she heard "County Princess" and "Ayuan" one after another.

Bai Zhiyuan burst into tears, she knew that it was Xie Yunsong who came to save her.

She opened her mouth, but no sound came out. She quickly felt around her body, but there was nothing there. She only felt the scabbard of her sword, but she didn't know where the sword had fallen. She thought for a moment, and knocked the scabbard against the cliff. But she was so weak that she had no strength left.

She paused, then knocked again with all her strength, hoping that Xie Yunsong could hear it.

Xie Yunsong listened attentively, then suddenly turned around and ran towards the sound. Everyone hurriedly followed him and rushed towards the stone wall. The sound rang a few times intermittently, then disappeared and could no longer be heard.

Xie Yunsong looked anxious. He quickened his pace, jumped into the ravine, and walked at full speed, leaving everyone behind.

He stopped, took a slight breath, and looked around. In the night, he couldn't see anything clearly.

His voice trembled slightly as he called out, "A-yuan!"

Bai Zhiyuan on the side exhausted her strength and fell asleep again, but in her dream she heard someone calling her, and she woke up again.

It was Xie Yunsong! His voice was filled with anxiety as he shouted, "A Yuan!"

Bai Zhiyuan tightened his scabbard and struck the stone wall again, but his strike was too weak and stopped abruptly.

Xie Yunsong heard it clearly, followed the sound, and climbed up. Finally, he found Bai Zhiyuan covered in blood on a narrow stone wall.

Bai Zhiyuan's strong desire to survive brought her life. She couldn't die. It was not easy to start over again, and she couldn't die like this. She was stopped by a dead branch while falling, and then she climbed up a vine and finally landed halfway on the cliff. But for safety, she still climbed to this stone wall with difficulty to hide.

When Bai Zhiyuan opened her eyes again, Xie Yunsong had already stopped in front of her. She was covered in blood, her red lips were no longer blood red, her clothes were torn, but her eyes were still clear, she couldn't even lift her eyelids, but she still tried hard to look at him.

She moved her mouth, wanting to say something, but found that she couldn't utter a word.

Xie Yunsong was relieved, took off his coat, and without caring about anything else, he picked her up by the waist and tied her up with a rope. Then he took her all the way down until she landed on the ground.

He laid her flat on the ground, tore off a corner of his clothes, and simply bandaged her leg to stop the bleeding.

After doing all this, he turned to Lu Zhiling and said, "It's getting late now, let's find a place to stay for the night. Ayuan is seriously injured and can't move at the moment. We will return after dawn tomorrow."
