I don't want to return

Oops!Someone yelled and quickly swiped away the sudden arrow with a sword. However, after one escaped, it was difficult to guard against the next one.

With a sound of "噗呲", blood sprayed out, and the father and son of merchants who were hiding in Mu Chongyu's team fell down from the arrows, struggled twice, and finally lost their breath.

Immediately, Mu Chongyu's camp was in chaos.No one expected that King Xuan would be so ruthless!

At this moment, a cold arrow flew towards Mu Chongyu and Xue Jinghong, and it was about to hit Mu Chongyu in the back!

Xue Jinghong's heart tightened, and he felt the hairs all over his body stand on end.With a loud shout, he used all his strength to grab the blade with his bare hands, slammed back, and pulled Mu Chongyu abruptly.

The arrow brushed against Mu Chongyu's back and fell, before sinking into the soil.It didn't hurt Mu Chongyu at all.

Xue Jinghong breathed a sigh of relief, he wanted to squeeze out a comforting smile to Mu Chongyu who was close at hand, but the severe pain in his hand had made him no longer have any strength.

With a "boom", the sword in Xue Jinghong's hand slipped to the ground. At the same time, he knelt down on the ground as if he was powerless, hanging there with empty hands, shook a few times, and finally fell powerlessly on his knees. .

The ten fingers connected to the heart, and the pain from the sharp sword piercing through the palm made cold sweat drip on his forehead.I'm afraid this right hand will be useless in the future.He thought with a wry smile.

"You..." Mu Chongyu looked at Xue Jinghong's movements in shock. He subconsciously wanted to help him up, but his feet were as heavy as lead, preventing him from taking a step.So, he just stood aside indifferently, looking at him with a complicated expression.

"Chongyu, I'm fine." Xue Jinghong said so.It's a pity that his voice was no longer as weak as before, and soon disappeared in this noisy battlefield.

"Mu Yuan won't give up if he doesn't catch you. Leave me alone, run away quickly." He added another sentence, then raised his left hand, pushed Mu Chongyu hard, and pushed him to Shen Qing's bed. around.

Shen Qing was already sweating profusely, resisting Liu Shi left and right, while firmly protecting Mu Chongyu behind him, said: "Your Majesty, there is no room for hesitation at this time. We have sworn to be hostile to Prince Xuan. Already!"

As he spoke, he also glanced at Xue Jinghong who was kneeling there, the anger and complex emotions in his heart were exactly the same as those of Mu Chongyu.Few of the brothers fighting here know Xue Jinghong's true face, and even Mu Yuan has never seen him in person.But Shen Qing had seen it before.When he was taken to Beiyu as a first-class prisoner of war, he saw the appearance of this enemy with his own eyes on the main hall of Beiyu.

His hatred for Xue Jinghong is as deep as that of every Nanyan person.But precisely because the hatred in the past was too deep, seeing Xue Jinghong's shocking actions today makes him feel even more complicated.

Xue Jinghong cared for his king so much that he even sacrificed his life to save him, but he dealt heavy damage to his country.

Shen Qing caught a glimpse of Mu Chongyu's tired side face beside him, and couldn't help but feel pity.

For me, loyalty to the emperor and patriotism are difficult to choose between, but for Mu Chongyu, how to deal with Xue Jinghong is probably even more difficult.This is even related to the entire spiritual support of the young monarch.

Shen Qing shook her head and finally sighed.He thought that no matter what choice Mu Chongyu made in the end, he would definitely follow it.As long as he never gives up on them, the old officials of Nanyan, that's enough.

The attack from the opposite side became more violent, and another dense rain of arrows came over, Shen Qing was gradually lost, and Mu Chongyu gradually came to his senses.

His gaze fell on Xue Jinghong involuntarily, and his teeth bit his lips.

Xue Jinghong was still kneeling on the ground, he only held the sword with his left hand, barely supported, and blocked the arrows that were shot.

If you just ignore him like this, it won't be long before he will die under Mu Yuan's arrow.Then his forbearance and hatred for so many years are over.The entire Yu court, without the king of a country, would also fall into chaos.

The revenge of the country's destruction will be rewarded.

Mu Chongyu's fists couldn't help trembling.However, his gaze suddenly stopped on Xue Jinghong's right hand.That hand was already dripping with blood.

He closed his eyes, finally left Shen Qing's side, bowed his waist to avoid Liu Ya, and walked over bit by bit.

"Chongyu?" Xue Jinghong's gaze never left, he noticed Mu Chongyu's movements almost immediately.

Mu Chongyu squatted down, picked up a dropped sword, and slammed it across Xue Jinghong's cheek.

But it helped him block an arrow with a swing.

Xue Jinghong's breathing stopped for a moment, and he looked at Mu Chongyu with a little surprise and a little disbelief.

Mu Chongyu lowered his eyes, grabbed Xue Jinghong's left arm, lifted him up, and said expressionlessly: "You saved me three times, once when I was sick in Heiyun Mountain, and once when I was sick. When I was trapped in Mu's house, there was another time, just now, to help me escape the cold arrow. Although I hate you for ruining our country, but because of these three times, you have become my savior."

There was a sense of self-mockery in his voice, he slowed down, and said again: "I will not let you go, but I will not repay you with revenge. Today I will not kill you while others are in danger, but I will wait until later If I meet you again on the battlefield tomorrow, I will definitely take your head!"

After he finished speaking, he refused to say another word, but he held on to the sword in his hand and tried his best to block the arrows around him.

Xue Jinghong was filled with emotions.He was overjoyed that Chongyu didn't leave him here, and he didn't dare to ask the other party's forgiveness.He turned around and pulled Mu Chongyu behind him, and stood up in front of him.

The last twilight gradually faded away, and the night covered the sky and covered the entire sky.

The arrows had been fired, and Mu Chongyu was also injured in various places.Looking from a distance, there are wounded, sick and disabled generals, and they are extremely embarrassed.

Mu Yuan commanded soldiers and horses to slowly surround them.They were in the upstream, and Mu Chongyu was in the downstream. From top to bottom, no matter whether it was shooting arrows or swooping over, the other party had no power to resist.

Mu Chongyu and the others retreated again and again, but right now, the river was behind them, and there was no way out.

Mu Chongyu secretly looked around.This section of the river is in the outskirts of the county, unattended, the river is bare, not even a wooden bridge is seen.Only a few pieces of driftwood drifted across the river from time to time.

Seeing this scene, Mu Yuan's mouth twitched into an inevitable smile.He got off his horse, stood upright in front, and said with a smile: "Chongyu, you have no way out."

"But it doesn't matter, as long as you come here obediently, I can save your life. Otherwise, this sword has no eyes, what should I do if I accidentally hurt you?"

As for Mu Chongyu, he didn't intend to use force with him, and he asked the archers to avoid him as much as possible, but if Mu Chongyu refused to listen to him, or interfered with his affairs, he would not show mercy.

As Mu Yuan said, his eyes fell on Xue Jinghong's body, and his smile stopped.This person is really fateful, such a rain of arrows came towards him, but they failed to hurt him!

But he couldn't directly order to kill this person.Behind Mu Yuan are all Beiyu pursuers. Although they are all soldiers in the barracks, if someone recognizes Xue Jinghong's face and is afraid of Xue Jinghong's power, his plan will be exposed immediately!

Just a hundred paces away, he couldn't see or hear clearly, so he could fool around and try to listen, but now he was so close, it gave Xue Jinghong a chance to breathe, in case he wanted to prove his identity, drink It is also possible to retreat these soldiers from Beiyu.

Thinking of this, Mu Yuan's face darkened instantly.

Mu Chongyu no longer had any hope for Mu Yuan, he shook his head, without a trace of warmth in his voice: "Uncle Xuan, this is the last word I call you 'Uncle Wang', from now on, you and I are strangers People, nothing to do with it."

"Since that's the case, then I won't say any more." Mu Yuan's face completely sank, pointed at the long sword in his hand, and said a word coldly: "Kill."

The bright moon refuses to fall in front of his window, but wants to climb in the dark, so he has no choice but to tear the bright moon apart, and burn everything together!

"The captives of Nanyan, since they are unwilling to bow their heads and accept the surrender, they have no choice but to die. If you don't want to go back and be punished, you must not let any of you live at this moment!" Mu Yuan turned around and looked coldly at the soldiers of Beiyu. soundtrack.

In a short while, there was a sound of killing shouts resounding across the battlefield.In this way, even if Xue Jinghong and Mu Chongyu had something to say, no one bothered to pay attention to it.

Mu Yuan withdrew from the battlefield and watched the killing with cold eyes.

He is such a person, he treats everything that can be owned by him and can be used by him in every way, and if he can't, he has no choice but to eliminate them one by one.The merchants in Lin'an County are like this, and so is Mu Chongyu.

However, at this moment, a sudden change was heard spreading in this chaotic battlefield.The exclamation increased from small to loud, and gradually, all the Beiyu soldiers stopped their movements.

Some soldiers ran over in panic, and said indiscriminately: "He, they... those escaped prisoners, they jumped into the river and drowned themselves!"

Mu Yuan narrowed his eyes suddenly, looked in disbelief at the unclear river surface under the night, and said sharply: "What did you say?!"
