"General, please leave! Leave me alone!"

"No, I can't leave you to escape alone, stop talking nonsense and hold my hand!"

Huo Minghan stretched out his hand with great effort, trying to pull his companion up from the sea of ​​blood and corpses, but he didn't realize that he didn't have much strength left.

"Damn it, why are there so many mummies? Clearly, Ke Luo's people have retreated."

"Cough cough!"

After finally pulling up his personal soldiers, Huo Minghan fell on the corpse, gasping for breath. His throat felt like it had swallowed a knife, and even swallowing saliva was painful.

She looked at the strings of mummies strung together and felt terrified. How many of these things were there? Were they only here, or were they already at the East Gate and the West Gate?

"That guy Zuo Kangping, could it be that he hasn't realized it yet?"

"If I hadn't realized it, you would be dead or alive right now."

The sudden calm male voice startled the guards. Huo Minghan looked up and found a sneaky Ke Luo soldier hiding in the pile of corpses, trying to attack her by surprise.

Zuo Mingyuan chopped off the man's hand with a nonchalant smile on his face, just like his son.

"People like this, don't even think about hurting me even if I don't have the strength."

General Huo stood up with his hands on the ground, waved away Zuo Kangping's hand, and looked at the messy battlefield, unable to hide his sigh.

"I have guarded the South Gate for so long, and now it has become like this. Fortunately, they were not able to break in."

"It's just a trick. There aren't many soldiers at the East Gate. I thought they were scared, but I didn't expect they were trying to make a feint to the east and attack in the west."

At this point Huo Minghan remembered something and said anxiously,

"Didn't I tell you to go and help Ximen? Why are you here?"

There must be more enemies at the west gate than here, those insidious guys,

But Zuo Kangping just remained silent for a moment, and then put on his familiar smile again.

"He will hold out until I get there. Besides, we can't take the shortest route."

"Can't leave?"

Huo Minghan didn't understand, but Zuo Kangping had already turned around and walked away, continuing to head towards the west gate, as if he had only stopped here briefly.

As for the shortest road that Zuo Kangping mentioned, dark shadows were lurking over the desert, seemingly swallowing up the sunlight, and occasionally making frightening noises.

In the desert, one of Ke Luo's soldiers finally couldn't hold on and fell to the ground. The black shadows rushed over and left an empty shell behind when he got up.

"Roar!"

Zuo Mingyuan only had time to see a yellow figure flash past him. His hands reacted faster than his brain and he swung his knife out, but it missed.

He immediately looked back and saw that the yellow-haired beast had jumped onto the masonry of the city wall and was clinging to it. Then several more came and stepped on the original beast, apparently using it as a stepping stone.

They have only one target, and that is Yun Nian who is playing the piano in the center.

"Sisi!"

He shouted loudly, and Yun Nian heard it, but she didn't react. It was better to say that her whole body and mind were poured into the sound of the piano.

"Roar!"

The roars of those wild beasts sounded like thunder, but the archers on the city walls were no pushovers. They couldn't shoot the soldiers who were too far away. But couldn't they deal with the beasts that tried to climb up?

Arrows rained down like rain, landing on the bodies of the yellow-haired monsters, splashing a little blood, but those creatures seemed to feel no pain, and instead climbed up without reducing their offensive power.

"Langya, protect Sisi!"

Fuqiu shook the bell in her hand, and the cotton inside was taken out by her, making a clear sound.

Yun Nian was playing the piano. Although it was not a piece that belonged exclusively to Ke Luo, it had a faint resonance with her bell.

Fuqiu twisted her waist and walked forward a few steps, stepping on the hot bricks with her bare feet, which made her jump.

She didn't know when she pulled out a knife from a soldier beside her and swung it around randomly.

"Humph, you ugly thing, I feel like my eyes are going blind when you appear in front of me, just like your master, I don't even want to look at him for a second."

I don't know if the beasts understood what she said, but they rushed towards Fuqiu.

She obviously wasn't very good at using weapons. The blade grazed the monster's ear and cut off a furry part.

Although those animals were ferocious, the princess of Ke Luo obviously had a lot of experience in fighting them. The arcs created by her rotation and jumps made the beasts' movements slow down all of a sudden, just like the people she had charmed.

She swung her knife and chopped a few of them, but she always felt as if she was chopping at meat that had been stored for a hundred years.

"This is too hard. What are you guys still standing there for? Chop it up and throw it down!"

Qi Ming finally came to his senses and quickly asked the soldiers nearby to help.

At this moment, Yun Nian has closed her eyes. She doesn't think about the current scene, but recalls the first time she learned the guqin. That was when she was completely obsessed with the instrument.

She had never thought that her music could have such a wonderful use. Of course, she had never thought that there were such wonderful things as souls and mummies.

If Fuqiu hadn't told her, she would probably still be kept in the dark.

"Is it fate? I never thought that if I am destined to take this path, then am I missing something?"

She suddenly opened her eyes, and the sound of the piano suddenly dropped a heavy note, like the sound of a war drum. As one note grew louder, the other ebbed. Zuo Mingyuan chopped off the heads of the mummies and left them to be trampled by the horses' hooves.

The corpses of wild animals were thrown down one after another on the city wall. Seeing this, Che Lan stood up.

"who is it?"

His eyes were like torches, and the beasts beside him were restless, as if they were angry about their dead companions.

On the city wall, next to the girl playing the zither, there was a graceful shadow. He could recognize it even if it turned into ashes.

Che Lan put her hand on the handle of the seat, and the iron object suddenly turned into a ball, and its original appearance could not be seen.

"Fuqiu, well, Fuqiu, it's you again. You actually dare to help the people of Da'an. If His Majesty knew about this, even the Imperial Master would not be able to protect you!"

He suddenly became excited, grabbed the person serving him, and tore his body apart with great force, blood splattering on his face.

Eating raw meat and drinking blood is nothing more than this.

"Very good, you have completely pissed me off. I want to see how long you can hold out."
