Ancient Sword II Xie Lelianxin

The moonlight disappears behind the clouds, leaving the resting travelers with the stars that are about to fall in the sky.The sky is about to break dawn, and light shines on the world again, as long as it is a living life, it can accept its gift.

Just live.

The horses were shaking their manes in the morning breeze. Qin Yang counted the horses and sent half of them to Wuyan Jialan in the southwest direction, while the rest went to Liuyue City.

The night before, Le Wuyi told Qin Yang his guess, but he was also worried that the Yilie Valley was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the troops were divided into two groups and their combat power was weakened.Qin Yang said, if you get rid of the Gu worm earlier, you can save one more life, there is never a battle that must be won, you can only do your best.He patted him on the shoulder again and said, don't worry, the Wuyan Garana team will be led by the general himself.

The scorching sun scorched the earth, and soon after the division of troops, Le Wuyi and the others went deep into the hinterland of the desert.Not to mention sand chickens, you won't even see a piece of turf for a whole day.

The boy's palms were worn out by the reins, but he still carefully wiped the dust off the horse's eyelashes, and stroked its head while feeding water: "Fortunately, you are carrying me, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to walk so far Lu..." Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, he turned his head and said, "General Qin, is there any news about my brother?"

"Not yet." Qin Yang looked at the simple tent, "Most of the water and food have been consumed. If the guide can't find the water source, he will have to return to the camp in at most five days."

Le Wuyi frowned and opened the butterfly box, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "The butterfly is very restless today... By the way, it flew a long way last night before coming back, and it should not be far from the Gu King."

As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of horseshoes galloping towards them. Annivar had no time to rein in his horse and shouted at them: "We found it! We will be there in ten miles!"

"Ten miles?" Qin Yang immediately climbed up and took a look. At the end of the yellow sand, the sky was like washing, and there was no trace of the ancient temple.

"It stands to reason that at this distance, we should be able to see the roof..." Qin Yang was a little puzzled.Wen Renyu interjected, "Did the wolf king encounter a mirage?"

"How could I be wrong!" Anival jumped off the horse and took the water bag from Le Wuyi.Although he was very thirsty, he only took a few sips and returned it, "This king grew up in the sand when he was young. Brother, remember, when you bring a caravan into the desert, you must first..."

"Sorry, please wait for the gossip...Wolf King, did you really see that ancient temple?"

Anival clicked his tongue impatiently, Le Wuyi nodded to Wen Renyu before he could speak: "He must have found it, but standing here, you really can't see it."

"What do you mean?"

"How would my brother know..."

Wen Renyu and Anival spoke at the same time, looked at each other, and actually stopped talking in a tacit understanding.

"Wuyanjialan was built in the depression, and the ridge of the roof is not exposed to the ground, so you can't see it." Le Wuyi closed his eyes, "There are ladders on the rammed earth walls around the depression. The ladder is very narrow and difficult to climb... It was still Mother carried me on her back and moved down step by step."

Anival took his brother's shoulders.Le Wuyi shook his head and said something in a low voice, then smiled at him: "Brother, I'm fine, it's all over."

Anival nodded, then calmed down and said: "He is right. The nearby Gobi blocked the sandstorm, and the quicksand was blocked by the rammed earth wall, so the dungeon was not buried by sand. But the wall is too brittle. A piece has collapsed in front of the gate of the hall... I saw a few people from Liuyue City underneath, there may be ambushes in the inner hall."

"...collapsed?" Qin Yang rubbed his stubble-covered chin, "If there is an ambush, you've found the right place. It looks like it's going to be a fierce battle, you guys go get ready."

"General Qin, I have one more request." Le Wuyi said hesitantly, "If you see a... uh, a person from Liuyue City with a red teardrop mark under his right eye later, don't hurt him..."

"Xiao Yu has already told me about it, and I also mentioned it to the adjutant of the other team." Qin Yang patted Le Wuyi on the shoulder, "We will definitely bring your master back intact, Doctor Le, don't worry."

The hollow under the sand is a hundred feet in circumference, and it can roughly accommodate half of the imperial palace.Everyone in Baicao Valley looked down at the bottom of the pit, and they saw an ancient temple standing in it, with double eaves and top corners stretching out like bird wings, and the sun was shining on the tiles.

What is more eye-catching is the sunlight reflected from the armored soldiers outside the temple.

The earth wall was nearly three stories high, and there was a ladder on the wall facing the main hall gate. Not far away, there was a collapsed wall, and there was no other way down.

"We were followed when we left Gumo. This time, we changed our course temporarily, but it was still not faster than their soldiers." Qin Yang approached the cave-in, picked up the sand and rubbed it until all the sand leaked out, and then buried his hands. Rubbing in the sand, like an experienced old farmer weighing the fatness and thinness of the land.

Le Wuyi touched the sand like the past, but couldn't figure out how Qin Yang planned to avoid the sharp arrows aimed at the collapse of the ladder and the earth wall.It's just that in the past few months with the army, he has understood what "orders and prohibitions" are, and he also understands that no matter what Qin Yang orders, his soldiers will go forward bravely.

The desert wind rolled up the faded military flag, and the scorching sun shone brightly on the weather-soaked armor. Everyone waited quietly.Le Wuyi watched Qin Yang walk towards his soldiers, and saw the veins bulging in his fists behind his back.The experienced general took a deep breath, slowly cupped his fists and saluted solemnly towards the brothers who were born and died together.

"Everyone listen to the order. Each of them takes a felt pad, sits back and forth and slides down the slope, and will then attack the main hall.

"During a landslide, the people in front need to try their best to block the arrows and protect the rear...Before the hand-to-hand combat, we can at least retain half of our combat power.

……

"I swear in the name of a hundred generals—the brother who is buried here today, his parents, wife and children will be taken care of by me, brothers, don't worry." Qin Yang spoke word by word, and at the end of the words, he was a little choked up.

"Decree!" Everyone responded in unison.

Wen Renyu fetched a felt mat and said to Le Wuyi, "I am Tiangang, you sit behind me."

"How can I do that? You're a girl, so I'll protect you." Le Wuyi was about to grab it when he suddenly felt his feet shaking violently, and the sound of land and rocks collapsing came from his ears.The high-rising sand and dust obscured the line of sight, as if trapped in a sandstorm.

Could it be... the ground moved? !That earthen wall...

Le Wuyi pulled out his leg from the sand, exchanged glances with Wen Renyu, who was also ashamed, and supported each other to move towards the edge of the sandpit, only to see a new piece of earth wall in front of the back hall of the ancient temple collapsed, and quicksand poured in continuously At the bottom of the pit, it soon became a narrow slope.

The guards of Liuyue City below were busy reorganizing their lineup. Occasionally, some people looked up and looked at the young man lying on the edge of the pit looking down.Le Wuyi only felt that every figure from his back looked very much like Xie Yi, but when he stared intently, they didn't look like each other.

Qin Yang didn't let go of this golden opportunity, taking advantage of the chaos of the enemy, he immediately ordered everyone to slide down the slope in front of the main hall, and ordered the small half of the team to rush to the new collapsed place.Priest Liuyue, who was leading the army below, also slowed down and led his men to outflank the apse.

quick!faster!

The dark yellow dust rose up, and the soldiers, like war horses galloping in the Gobi, rushed towards the thorny road without fear.Sharp arrows rained down, and the warrior sitting in front used his flesh and blood to protect his brother behind, just to send him to a more dangerous battlefield unscathed.The dead young body rolled down the slope, and the blood on the yellow sand was still wet, and the soldiers from behind followed one after another.

Le Wuyi held his breath, squinted his eyes for a while, and pulled Wen Renyu to the back hall: "There are fewer ambushes there... I will sit in the front, you are not allowed to fight with me!"

"As expected of my brother, men have to be like this." Annivar, who flashed out of the slanting stab, praised, grabbed Le Wuyi and ran forward, "Remember, never quarrel with women. I will take you down. "

"Brother, I'm still here..."

Anival glared at him: "Your small body, what can you block?"

"Hey, wait..." Wen Renyu chased after them, Annivar clicked his tongue and reached out to hold her, "Woman, you sit behind my brother."

"No, I'm Tiangang..."

"Tsk, you've never played this game before. If you sit in the front, it's no wonder our brothers don't turn over... It would be worse if we stopped halfway." Anival looked at Wen Renyu with a little more seriousness in his eyes, " I know, this kid is holding something in his heart, in case I... you can watch him for me."

Wen Renyu's eyes turned red, the corners of his mouth tightened, and he nodded vigorously.

When the two sat down firmly, Anival shouted, clutched the felt pad tightly and rushed down.Le Wuyi's center of gravity suddenly leaned forward, hitting the man's broad back with his head, he straightened his waist with all his strength, and firmly grasped the man's belt.The hand around her waist also tightened, and the next moment, Wen Renyu's head also hit her, she apologized embarrassedly, Le Wuyi comforted, I'm here, don't be afraid.

"I'm not afraid. Your brother asked me to watch you, and you have to listen to me after you go down..."

The girl's vague whispers passed by her ears, but the next moment, there was only the sound of the wind filled with the smell of blood.

A new candle was put in front of the huge statue, but it still couldn't illuminate the dusty and benevolent face.The scriptures embroidered with red thread can be vaguely seen on the silk surface of the hanging banners nearby, and the tassels hanging on the ground are covered with mud, and the original color cannot be seen.

At the end of the stone corridor, vague shouts of killing and the sound of sharp blades colliding echoed, but the main hall was still silent.The dilapidated banners swayed in the wind, covering the figures deep in the hall from time to time.

The hidden guard wearing a mask approached the man in black who was standing with his hands behind his back, half knelt down and said, "Master, I have to go out of the hall to check. Baicao Valley's combat strength is still [-]%, Lord Tanlang has led his troops to close combat, and besides... "

A commotion suddenly came from a corner of the side hall in the distance, as if someone had broken through the heavy defenses.The dark guard paused, and Shen Ye ordered the captain of the guard to lead his men to the apse to intercept him.

The captain took the order and yelled at the people squatting in the corner: "All of you go search."

Those "people" only moved their eyeballs, until the captain urged them several times impatiently, and then staggered away one by one.

"Boss, who are they, why do they look a little weird?"

"They..." the captain snorted, "They are all medicine man puppets used by Master Qisha. We don't have enough manpower, so we ask them to do chores."

Among the puppets, a middle-aged man nodded towards the captain with a dull expression, dragged his scarred feet, and disappeared quietly into the depths of the stone corridor.
