Shao Yao lowered his head, and with a trembling and hoarse voice, he called out the name of the person in his arms.

Chen Huanluo lowered his eyes, clutched his stomach, and whispered, "Shao Yan, I'm sorry."

For such a situation, he could not evade his responsibility. He looked at the people who died from the war, hunger and plague. Their eyes were cloudy and their faces were sad. It was obvious that the people were the most innocent. It was ridiculous that he only realized it now.

He should have said sorry long ago.

The people are devastated, the sight is full of desolation, and the fetus in the womb has also suffered, accompanying him to wait for death in the collapsed Xiyan Pass.

Shao Yan grabbed the quilt and wrapped him in, bowed his head and kissed him, don't say sorry to him, it was he who didn't take good care of his wife and children.

The ball of hair in Chen Huan's palm tilted his head and watched the two people entangled together, Hei Yuan's eyes widened, and he was dumbfounded.

He coughed, and said, "Luo Luo's fetal breathing is not stable, I'm afraid it will be difficult to protect the baby in the long run, the prime minister should take him away."

The softness covered by Shao Yan's palm made his heart so soft that he was both happy and painful, "Brother, since the day he left, I have regretted not keeping him by my side all the time. Thank you for taking care of Luoer, but Now Shao Yan can't help himself."

Chen Huan waved his hand, and smiled bitterly, "I didn't teach Luo Luo well, let him be deceived by traitors, and I didn't take good care of my mother."

"While King Yu pretended to use Luo Luo's medical skills, he sent people to find me and my mother's traces as a backup to prevent Luo Luo from being distracted. After my mother passed away, I hid in King Yu's army, intending to find an opportunity to kill him. Get rid of him, but I didn't expect to get the secret of King Yu."

Chen Huanyan looked at Chen Huanluo, his eyes were full of distress and harshness.

Chen Huanluo bowed his head, his heart aching from suffocation, he didn't dare to look at his brother.

Shao Yan pressed his head into his arms, "I know what you said, that's why we didn't attack Xiyan Pass immediately, and King Yu also refined a group of puppets, which are the only ones he can use of."

Shao Yan asked the person in his arms in a low voice, "Do you know where it is?"

Chen Huanluo shook his head, let alone where he was, he didn't know about it, he was only in charge of preparing King Yu's medicine and a small number of puppets' refining medicinal materials, he didn't know anything else, and King Yu didn't trust him at all. Bar.

Put him alone in the royal city, let him make poison, and poison some people, without asking their names or identities.

Shao Yan had no choice but to kiss his forehead lightly. Originally, King Yu with an arrow might not survive, but he didn't expect this stupid thing to survive by being hanged with medicine. Now he is still half human and half ghost, which is very terrifying and disgusting.

The sky slowly lit up, and a dull dark blue halo appeared on the edge of the sky, he was gently placed on the bed, and the quilt was covered.

The hairy ball was wearing a black cloth and meowed reluctantly, rubbing the back of Chen Huanluo's hand with the small hard corner of its head.

Shao Yan touched Chen Huanluo's face, his eyes were as gentle and profound as the sea, "The army has been searching day and night for the hiding place of the puppet, and it will be found soon, soon, wait for me for three days, take care of yourself and the child, I will I will definitely take you away."

Chen Huanluo held his hand, with reluctance and self-blame in his plain eyes, he nodded, staring blankly at Shao Yan disappearing under the blue sky with the ball of hair in his arms.

Chen Huan sighed, "Luo Luo, do you really want to be with him?"

Chen Huanluo narrowed his eyes and didn't return to him, but said in a low voice, "Brother, I'm sorry, and I'm sorry, mother, I let you down." He sat up, with a trace of indescribable embarrassment and despair flashing in his eyes, "King Yu He is no longer human, he has King Gu in his body, if King Gu doesn't die, King Yu won't die."

"Brother, King Yu once asked me to concoct a poison called Hanyuan, which was made from the young of the poisonous Gu. Now I know that the people who were poisoned were Rong Lingjun, the prince of Wubei, and Jiang Jiang from Shaoyan's mansion. Xing, as well as several ministers in the palace, and... the current prince who is less than half a year old."

The number of people he does not know is even greater.

Chen Huanluo's body trembled violently when he said that, thinking that he had put the cold abyss on the baby who could not speak yet, it was as if countless silver needles were stuck in his heart, penetrating into the flesh and blood inch by inch, with hooks, Traces of fresh flesh were drawn out, and he couldn't breathe due to the pain.

"Once King Gu dies, other people will die too." Chen Huanluo's eyes flickered slightly, and a touch of icy color was hidden under the cold pupils, "You can only take out the Gu insects in King Yu's body and let me put them in person. Prevent others from poisoning and dying."

Chen Huan gritted his teeth, "I don't allow you to take risks! The Prime Minister will never agree! You still have a baby in your belly, do you have the heart to let him accompany you!"

"I'm a man, and I should end what I did wrong." Chen Huanluo anxiously hugged his sullen elder brother, "Brother, no one can take out the Gu King except me."

"The Prime Minister and I will capture King Yu and not let him die!"

"Do you think he doesn't know about this! King Yu takes medicine all year round to cultivate a suitable habitat for King Gu! He naturally knows about it!"

Chen Huanluo growled anxiously, his heart trembling rapidly, he covered his abdomen and panted lowly, because the momentary throbbing pain made his whole body ache.

"Brother, I will take responsibility for what I did wrong. I don't want to die, I want to be with you, Shao Yan, and my children, but if those people are all dead, how can I still live in this world? By then , Will Shao Yan still accept me, he will only hate me. I can't bear it, I love him!"

Chen Huanluo closed his eyes in pain. For the first time, he said that he loved him, so much that he couldn't bear the slightest hatred or leaving from Shao Yan.

"He doesn't want you, so I'll take you away."

Chen Huanluo shook his head, with sad and helpless eyes, "I will not leave him. Brother, he gave himself three days, and these three days are enough. I will take out the Gu King in advance to find out the position of the puppet army. After three days, the Kun Qian soldiers When we invade Xiyan Pass, we must kill King Yu to avenge our mother."

Chen Huan looked at him, and suppressed all the emotions in his heart to the depths of his bones, "If something happens to you, how can I give Shao Yan his wife and children, and how can I explain to my mother!"

"What to do if you don't succeed!"

Chen Huanluo shook his head, "I will definitely succeed. I don't want to die, brother, go to Shao Yan, don't tell him that I want to take out the Gu King, let the cat take you to find a kind of worm, if you can find it, God will forgive me , if I can’t find it, then I have sinned deeply and should not live.”

Chen Huan still wants to argue, the sky is light yellow and a round of gold borders blooms like a Buddha's will, magnificent and peaceful.

Chen Huanluo smiled, golden stars appeared in his usually cold eyes, he touched his abdomen, and shook his head lightly, "Brother, mother misses me."

There was great grief in Chen Huan's eyes, and he silently looked at the quiet and obedient Luo Luo whom he had raised since childhood.

There is cause and effect in the world, let you live, you will live.

The sky was bright, Shao Yan threw the hairball into the sand, and walked into the military tent that he must come every day.

The sun is scorching hot in the hot sand, and the hairball shows its head in the sand, playing with the sand with the small horns on its head.

There were whispers of yelling and arguing in the camp. Where the army was stationed, the long yellow sand covered countless rushing horseshoes, setting off the bloody sun like a raging fire.

The setting sun was like blood, and the souls of the dead piled up under the city gate howled day and night, mourning and lingering.

Floating and turbulent, the world is lucky to be stable for a lifetime.

The ghostly and cunning figure descended from the bloody Xiyanguan city wall, and was covered by the wind of yellow sand in a moment.

Chen Huan ran wildly all the way, stepping lightly and quickly on the yellow sand with bumpy steps, and disappeared into the place where the stars shone in the distance together with the setting sun on the long river.

The hairball lay bored in the camp tent, with a little furry head sticking out from under the tent, hanging out, and laying it on the cool sand.

As the wind blew across the sand dunes, it raised its head abruptly and looked into the distance, its small round eyes widened, and its throat made a dangerous sound of vigilance.

☆, 70

The starry sky above the desert is as vast as the sea.

Shao Yan looked up at the sky full of stars, with an uncontrollable smile on his lips.

His Luoer has a baby, they have a baby, this is Shao Yan's dream, to be able to have a rough meal with Chen Huanluo's offspring.

From the dark sky, there was a scream, and Mao Tuan rushed out of the camp with a grin, and a threatening growl from his throat.

Shao Yan held down the hairball, stretched out his arm and let the eagle catch his arm.

After hastily reading the contents of the letter, Shao Yan looked up to the sky and laughed, and quickly summoned the army generals to discuss the method of battle overnight.

Mao Tuan kicked the sand by the fire boredly, then suddenly raised his head, watching Chen Huan walk over and walked into the barracks with it in his hand.

"Why is brother here? What happened to Luoer?!" Shao Yan's pupils shrank.

Chen Huan shook his head, "I want it to help me find something, can you lend it to me?"

Seeing Shao Yan's calm expression, the others also put away their weapons.

"The cat cub was originally Luo Er's."

Shao Yan asked Wei Xiao to continue discussing the method of combat, and left the camp with Chen Huan.

After finding a deserted place, Shao Yan said, "Could it be for Luo Er? After thinking about it, I still can't rest assured that he will stay in Xiyan Pass. The approximate location of Renkui has been found, and the battle will start within two days." , I want my brother to help me take Luo Er away ahead of time!"

Chen Huan felt a throbbing pain in his heart, wondering if the two of them had a tacit understanding and felt the danger.

"Luo Luo's waywardness has caused the prime minister a lot of trouble. After this battle, please treat him well and leave if he can stay away from right and wrong."

Shao Yan frowned, and asked questioningly, "Brother, please call me Shao Yan. Is there something on your mind?" His mind was blank, "Is Luo Er hiding something from me?"

Chen Huan smiled wryly and shook his head, "Well, I knew I couldn't hide it from you. The fetus in his womb is not breathing steadily. I'm afraid you didn't tell you because you were worried. I'll come out and help him find the medicinal materials. Brother Shao, he will be waiting for you. Besides, he is still a member of King Yu, so it might be inappropriate to appear in the Kun Qian army now."

"I'm just worried about him and can't let go."

Chen Huan sighed, took a deep look at Shao Yan, and weighed the hair ball in his hand, "Then I will take my leave, and I will send the hair ball back as soon as possible."

Shao Yan restrained him, "I'll send someone to go with my elder brother. If there are more people, the search will be faster. My elder brother will tell me his name, and I will send someone back to deliver it in a few days."

"This is a medicinal herb from the desert. It doesn't have a name. I'll go by myself. I'm more familiar with the terrain of the desert." Chen Huan waved his hands and hurried away with the hairball.

It was already late at night, and in Xiyan Pass, there was only a remnant gasp struggling to flow out from the darkness.

Chen Huanluo stood outside the door with thick black concoction, Yang Rui stood with him, and behind him was King Yu's confidant, his face was even paler under the moonlight, "Has the prince really merged with King Gu?"

Chen Huanluo frowned slightly, the hand holding the medicine juice was a little stiff and aching, his eyes seemed suspicious, "It stands to reason that the prince's appearance should have recovered during the fusion, but now..."

His voice lowered and disappeared into his lips, but Yang Rui understood what he meant.

A struggling and terrifying figure was reflected in the brightly lit room. With a loud noise, the door was kicked open, and a stench filled the air. The person in front of him was extremely tall, exuding a strong, gloomy stench like a corpse.

The moonlight shone on King Yu's face, and few people dared to look up.

Chen Huanluo stepped forward and delivered the medicine juice.

Pus and blood seemed to remain on the rotten face, and black and smelly bones seemed to be visible between the skin and flesh.

Chen Huanluo's face remained unchanged, and he said in a low voice, "Please also ask the prince to take the medicine."

King Yu raised his hand, shattered the medicine bowl with a bang, raised his head and laughed, his voice squeezed out from his suppurated heart and lungs, and his voice was piercingly hoarse, "Hahaha, this king can't feel better now, his body is full of strength ! This medicine is no longer needed!"

King Yu raised Chen Huanluo's head with stiff steps, "Hahahaha, you are a great hero. When this king wins the world, the little emperor will be handed over to you!"

All the people in the courtyard knelt down and shouted respectfully, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Chen Huanluo lowered his head, hiding his anxiety under his calm eyes.

There are two more days.

He tightened his hands slightly, raised his head and said, "It's good for Huan Luo to help the adoptive father feel the pulse, when Huan Luo wants to confirm King Gu, he and the prince—"

King Yu waved his hand away, and smiled conceitedly, "No, I know about my body, and it's worth it that I've been drinking the medicine for so many years, and now I'm really comfortable!"

"You guys, come here with me to discuss the matter of attacking the enemy. The day Gu King is trained is the time when the puppet will be unearthed! This king can't wait!"

After saying that, he led the people away in strides.

Chen Huanluo worriedly grabbed Yang Rui who was following at the end, and said in a low voice, "Sir, please persuade the prince, and let me check the situation of Gu King again, I am a little worried."

Yang Rui showed a weird smile, "Mr. Chen cares so little about the prince."

Chen Huanluo's eyes were cold, "The event of overthrowing the country is imminent, Huan Luo just wants to be [-]% sure that King Gu can help you and me achieve great things."

Yang Rui patted him on the shoulder, smiling brightly, "It's good that you have this kind of intention, I will persuade the prince."

"The sooner the better."

When Chen Huanluo was about to leave, Yang Rui said suddenly, "The raid out of the city to assassinate the emperor may be carried out at the same time as the day when the puppet invades Kunqian. If you have the heart, you can start preparing from now on."

"Yes. Thank you, sir, for your advice."

The full moon on the desert is golden and has a blood-red mist, which always feels a bit weird.

Chen Huan didn't know how to get Mao Tuan to find what he needed. The bright moon shone brightly on the long yellow sand, and he saw a small group jumping around in the sand, playing happily.

Every time Mao Tuan was buried in the sand, he would rush over and pull him out. When Mao Tuan saw him, he would scream foolishly.

Cuckoo, meow?

Chen Huan anxiously and helplessly pinched the soft hair on the back of its head and said, "You are a spiritual creature, you should be able to understand my words, I beg you to quickly find something that can make people live together, and Paulo Luo will die .”

The hair ball was hurt by him, struggled to fall, and got into the sand again, showing a dangling little buttocks and swaying outside.

Chen Huan had no choice but to walk in the long yellow sand impatiently but aimlessly. Every time he saw Mao Tuan pawing the sand with his claws, he rushed to search for it, but often found nothing.

In the middle of the moonlit night, a golden full moon hangs above the head, and the layer of blood-red mist grows more and more, as if the blood spirit rising from the yellow sand is covering the side, crying ghosts and wolves howling silently in the middle of the night.

Mao Tuan puffed up his cheeks and spat out a small piece of white stone bone into Chen Huan's hand.

Chen Huan's eyes were delighted, and then the moonlight took a closer look, only to find that it was just an unknown bone.

Mao Tuan pouted his buttocks, stared at Chen Huan excitedly, and barked twice.

Throw!

It can receive!

Chen Huan, "..."

He sat down with a gloomy expression.

In fact, it has no name, no appearance, and pins its hopes on this lump for no reason.

Luo Luo asked him to come out to look for it, but did he just find an excuse to push him out? !

Chen Huan got up in a hurry and wanted to run back.

Mao Tuan sat on the sand, looking down at his fluffy paws.

The fierce wind howled, it lowered its head and bit its own paw, and dripped the blood from the fluff on the sand with a sad face.

A drop of blood disappeared in the sand in a blink of an eye.

The blood of spirit beasts contains the essence of heaven and earth, which cannot be smelled by humans, but it is an excellent thing for spiritual things.

Mao Tuan held up the injured claw and showed it to Chen Huan, but he didn't get any attention, so he had to keep it in his mouth.

After a while, a black head appeared in the sand.

Chen Huan stretched out his hand to grab it, and the hair ball was faster, and he swallowed the bug as soon as he lowered his head.

For the next half an hour, every time a bug crawled out of the sand, the hair ball would be swallowed up quickly, and after eating, he would proudly shake his little ear at Chen Huan.

Chen Huan realized that these might not be what he was looking for at all, and he also didn't understand what could keep Luoer from being injured or killed in the long desert.

The hairball over there happily eats insects. When it finds a sand hole, it pulls out some dead wood and dry things, and gurgles excitedly.

An amber-like thing that is almost the same color as a grain of sand swayed to reveal two small tentacles, and the color was light yellow with a clear luster.

As soon as the amber worm showed its tentacles, it sensed the danger, and quickly burrowed into the sand, but it attracted the attention of the hairball. The hairball excitedly pawed at the sand pile with its claws, as if trying to decide who was faster.

The hairball quickly lowered its head and opened its small mouth to plunge into the sand, eating a mouthful of sand.

bah bah.

He slapped the sand with his claws, then bit it with his mouth, and rushed over excitedly, with an excited grunt in his throat, twisting his little buttocks with excitement.

Chen Huan no longer reacted to its surprise.

But the hairball gurgled and jumped onto his lap, spitting amber-colored worms into his hands.

The body of that thing was completely transparent, shining brightly under the moonlight, Chen Huan's heart sank, and when he looked carefully, he found that there was a small bug the size of a fingernail in the transparent abdomen of this thing.

The hairball twisted its ass excitedly.

Baby baby, it's baby!

Praise it quickly, it has found a treasure!

The sky will be bright.

Chen Huanluo sat in the room all night, but when he just stood up, his heart beat suddenly, and his abdomen throbbed.

He rubbed his abdomen and walked slowly towards the pharmacy.

Pushing open the door, the sky was brightly lit, and it was almost full of light in an instant.

As soon as the stench entered his breath, Chen Huanluo already knew who it was.

He stood by the medicine stove with his hands down, and King Yu led his men striding in, raised his head and swallowed the boiling hot medicine juice into his rotting body, and laughed loudly, "Huan Luo, you are really my king's right hand!" General, hahaha."

King Yu turned around abruptly, and all the people behind him lowered their heads, not daring to look at the rotten face, "Don't wait any longer, send an order to prepare the army, and go out of the city to fight in three days! Don't worry, there will be this king The human puppet army has escaped from the ground to help you achieve a great cause together!"

Chen Huanluo lowered his eyes, one day behind the time Shao Yan agreed with him.

As long as he can take out the Gu King, there is still time.

In Kunqian's army, the horn of war blew quietly.

At nightfall, the elite soldiers of the Seventh Squad quickly disappeared in the southeast of Xiyan Pass.

The [-]th Division army prepared siege equipment, inserted huge nails into the sand, and poured them like fire oil at night.

In Xiyan Pass, the last spirits and food were served on the table.

The city is desolate and inhabited, and the population is gradually extinguished.

King Yu gulped down his drink, with a sinister smile in his ferocious eyes.

There were black blood streaks floating in the wine glass he had drunk from.

Yang Rui stood beside him with a pale face like a ghost.

There is one day left.

Chen Huanluo silently counted for a few days, brother didn't find that thing.

After all, he only heard about it from books, and even he didn't know how to find that thing in the vast desert, and he didn't even have a name.

I only know that it is the most precious medicinal Gu in the Northwest. It swallows the desert and lives, and is divided into son and mother.

Can you find it?

Chen Huanluo lowered his head, slowly grinding the last pack of medicine.

Early morning of the third day.

Chen Huanluo's door was pried open frantically.

"My lord is vomiting blood, go!"

In the room where the sun can't penetrate, the stench is accompanied by strong blood, which makes people almost unable to stay.

Before Chen Huanluo could reach the bed, King Yu suddenly got up and grabbed him with his hands full of pustules, his voice frantic and desolate, "It's moving! Why!"

After checking, Chen Huanluo said calmly, "My lord, King Gu is a little irritable, probably because he sensed my lord's emotions."

He said to the people beside him, "You all go down, I will stay here and cook a bucket of medicinal juice according to my prescription."

Yang Rui's eyes were like eagles, she stared at King Yu, then turned to look at Chen Huanluo viciously, "I'm here to help you!"

Chen Huanluo agreed in a low voice, and after the person left, he opened the medicine box he brought, took out the blade as thin as a cicada's wing, and his eyes moved slightly, "My lord, please rest assured."

In Kun Qian's army, it was still three hours before dark, and he was staring at the map in his hand anxiously, beside the porcelain that was accidentally crushed.

Chen Huan came in, "I will sneak back to the city now, and I will protect him, don't worry Brother Shao."

Shao Yan frowned, spread out the map and the booklet, did not agree to Chen Huan's request, but told him about the preparations after dark.

Just when Chen Huan was so worried that he couldn't help but was about to interrupt, Shao Yan suddenly took out a set of clothes and put them in front of him, "This is what Yirong needs. You disguise yourself as me, stabilize the morale of the army in the army, and I will go to Xiyan close!"

He gritted his teeth, the pain in his heart that had been throbbing since he left three days ago made him really unable to bear it any longer.

"you--"

Shao Yan began to change clothes, "I have told you our plan, I will take him out, there are still three hours, I don't feel relieved if I don't see him with my own eyes."

Chen Huan stared blankly at the mask on the table, suddenly smiled, and said softly, "I'll leave it to you... I'm relieved."
