The master said not to judge people by their appearance

The days in winter always seem shorter than usual, but today seemed exceptionally short.

The Yazhou officers and soldiers assembled urgently for a day to prepare for the upcoming battle. Before they were fully prepared, night fell little by little, like a huge shadow under a hood.

When the dream realm was fully unfolded, everyone found that they didn't even fall asleep as usual, but in the blink of an eye, Yazhou City changed its scene.

The wind and snow became colder, and a huge flower appeared in the empty place in the center of the city. It was as tall as a sky pillar connecting the sky and the earth, and it was also very beautiful. The beauty of death.

Wei Chengzhi looked at the flower, this huge Gesang flower emerged from the ground yesterday, its rhizome wrapped around Gesang and swallowed it, and Gesang was no longer seen in today's dream realm.

This seems to be an allegory, implying that Gesang's consciousness has been completely swallowed by the inner demon, and all good humanity has disappeared in the desert wind and snow, only the obsession to go home still remains.

The inner demon will help her complete this obsession by slaughtering the whole city.

When Wei Chengzhi came to the tower, Xie Yunlan and Huang Yaowu were discussing the battle plan for the meeting, when they saw him by chance, they were startled.

"Sir..." Xie Yunlan looked at Wei Chengzhi's attire hesitantly. Wei Chengzhi often wore a scholarly shirt, but now he was wearing a solid armor and a long sword on his waist like the soldiers around him.

"I'm here to help Lord Hou." Wei Chengzhi smiled.

"But..." Xie Yunlan wanted to say that Wei Chengzhi didn't know martial arts, and it would be dangerous to stay here, but seeing the firmness under Wei Chengzhi's smile, he changed his words, "Please sir, fight with us."

Wei Chengzhi joined the soldiers defending the city. Together with the rest of the people on the tower, he prepared for the upcoming decisive battle.

Soldiers kept running on the city tower, adjusting their deployment according to Xie Yunlan's instructions. Everyone looked solemn. This would be a life-and-death battle.

The wind and snow came from the end of the glacier, howling like a roaring beast. After the night fell completely, as many times before, the Yuan Rong cavalry appeared at the end of the glacier.

What's different is that above the black cavalry, there is an even bigger black shadow, which is a monster dragon swimming in the air.

The monster flood dragon came with the blizzard of the freezing world, it was far away at the other end of the glacier, but the soldiers on the tower already felt the bone-chilling chill, their fingers began to tremble, perhaps because of the cold, or perhaps because of fear, It was almost impossible to hold the weapon tightly.

But on the beacon tower, a cluster of flames suddenly ignited, it was not ordinary fire ignited by wood, this flame was burning out of thin air in Shen Fan's palm, it didn't look very bright, but it had the power to disperse the cold wind and snow.

Everyone's stiff fingers warmed up again, and the flame gave them courage at the same time.

Perhaps, demons are not invincible.

Everyone thought like this, one person's thoughts cannot change the dream, but when the beliefs of thousands of people gathered together, the soul fire in Shen Fan's hand became slightly stronger.

Although it is still very weak compared to the snowstorm all over the sky, at least at this moment, the flame melted the cold fear brought by the monster dragon, and everyone did not instantly turn into ice sculptures when the snowstorm hit like last night. A chance to fight to the death.

"Archers are ready!" Huang Yaowu shouted.

Numerous crossbow arrows were wound at the same moment, and when the Yuanrong cavalry reached the range, the arrows were densely packed like rain and roared out.

Yuan Rong's forward was shot off his horse, and his iron armor was scattered on the ground. Before they recovered, the gate of Yazhou City suddenly opened a small gap.

A cavalry ran out from the crack of the door, Xie Yunlan took the lead, led Wang Tai and the others, and headed straight for the Yuanrong iron cavalry.

There were only a hundred of them, and they dared to charge the Yuan Rong iron cavalry head-on, they were simply seeking their own death.

Talgu was about to lead his troops to encircle and kill the dying cavalry, but another round of arrows came. Under the cover of Huang Yaowu, Xie Yunlan came to the front of the Yuanrong cavalry smoothly.

Of course, you can't win a frontal charge, and you can't win by defending the tower. He has tried many times. Yuanrong cavalry is immortal, and the only way to break it is to control them.

Xie Yunlan shook off the rope nets carried by the horses. Wang Tai and the others followed suit. In groups of two, they used the rope nets to pick up the iron armor scattered on the ground that had not yet recovered in time. They dragged the iron armor, and the iron armor It trembled slightly in the net, but couldn't be put together because of the obstruction of the rope net.

Talgu wanted to lead his troops to stop them, but the third round of arrow rain hit immediately, and his side was reduced in another round. The cavalry led by Xie Yunlan recruited a group of armored soldiers, and they dismembered this immortal army step by step. army.

The monster dragon hovered over Yazhou City, its scarlet eyes watching all this, when the fourth round of arrow rain hit, it suddenly roared, the wind and snow suddenly increased in its roar, and the light of the soul fire ignited it. one dark.

The thousands of arrows that were shooting at the Yuan Rong cavalry seemed to hit some invisible iron wall. They deviated from their original direction in the wind and snow and fell to the ground together.

The cavalry led by Talgu stopped interfering, and they divided into two groups. A small group pursued Xie Yunlan and the others, while the large group began to attack Yazhou City.

The small group of cavalry chasing Xie Yunlan was led by Talgu himself. Xie Yunlan did not want to fight them head-on. These armors cannot be killed, and fighting will only consume their own physical strength. However, the rope nets behind their horses Dragging down their running speed, Targu quickly approached them.

Xie Yunlan was forced to fight, just like the guarding soldiers on the city tower who were facing the surging Yuan Rong cavalry.

The wind and snow blew straight towards their faces, not to mention releasing arrows, they were blown so hard that they could barely open their eyes.

"His grandma's!" Huang Yaowu cursed, he threw away the spear in his hand, drew his sword, and shouted at the crowd, "Throw away the spear, draw the sword and follow me!"

Everyone discarded their spears one after another. With the help of the monster dragon, the Yuanrong cavalry attacked the city faster than usual. Soon the vanguard climbed up the tower.

Wei Chengzhi was a scribe, but he rushed to the front without fear of death.

He felt sorry for Gesang's death, and if there was even a chance, he would try his best to help Gesang fulfill her wish and bring her home.

It's a pity that there is no if, the result of death is already an established fact, and this obsession with the soul of the dead is just a lie of the inner demon. When Gesang was alive, he failed to save the other party, but after death, he never wanted Gesang to be killed again. Utilized by the inner demon, he became an accomplice in the massacre of the city.

He wants to stop her!

He roared and raised his long knife to slash. Although he didn't know martial arts, but with this belief, he also chopped down a Yuanrong cavalry from the tower with a sudden burst of force.

But there are more cavalry climbing up, they are endless, haunting.

Xie Yunlan retreated while fighting, Tal Guben was a very strong opponent, and the black gold wide-backed wolf's head knife was a rare sharp blade in the world, especially at the moment when the opponent was still in a state where he would not be tired, injured or dead, he could barely Remain undefeated, but can no longer protect the rope trailing behind the horse.

The rope net was severed by the wolf's head knife, and the trapped armors were freed. They rolled on the glacier, looking for their own stumps to assemble themselves, and then joined the siege team.

This undoubtedly made it more difficult for the officers and soldiers of Yazhou to defend the city. Everyone was gritting their teeth and fighting desperately with the Yuan Rong cavalry, but their hearts were like the extinguished candle in Shen Fan's hand. Swaying in the snow.

This is a pointless fight.

Shen Fan looked down at all of this. Although the first two desperate situations were finally saved, the dream realm was different from reality, and the dream master almost had absolute control over this place.

Given the advantage of the venue, the monster dragon in front of him is even stronger than Yuan Shuo's inner demon, and in the dream controlled by this inner demon, naturally there will be no one hundred and eight dragon candle lanterns, how can mortals fight against the demon?

Shen Fan looked in Xie Yunlan's direction, this human being can always burst out a fierce soul fire in a desperate situation, at this moment, he saw his soul, the flame was burning fiercely.

But after all, it is the fire of mortals. No matter how strong ants are ten times, they are still just ants. They cannot resist the monstrous power of the monstrous dragon.

Will there be a miracle this time?

Maybe not.Shen Fan thought to himself.

He gave Xie Yunlan the only chance to survive, but maybe it was brave, maybe it was stupid, Xie Yunlan's choice would cause him to be buried in this snowy night together with the tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Yazhou City.

Everything is developing as Shen Fan expected, Xia Jun retreated steadily, and people kept falling. Wei Chengzhi has fought until now with a wave of faith, but faith can't change many things, just like his man who has never learned martial arts. Body.

At the beginning, he was still able to fight, but as more and more Yuanrong people climbed the tower, and the fighting time continued to lengthen, he gradually became exhausted, and there were many wounds on his body, and some Yuanrong people raised their knives to attack him. , the handle of the knife in his hand was shot down because of loss of force, and the next blow would take his life.

Wei Chengzhi was not afraid, since the death of his wife and children, he was no longer afraid of death, but he was still unwilling at this moment, he hated his own powerlessness, he failed to stop Gesang.

He was about to die with hatred when he suddenly noticed a tiny green tint appearing on the pitch-black armor.

This is a young bud, the bud of Gesang flower.

Gesanghua grew rapidly in the gaps in the iron armor. In an instant, it grew into thick and long vines, tightly binding the limbs and joints of the iron armor. Yuanrong cavalry struggled in it, but could not move.

"Gesang..." Wei Chengzhi realized something, and he turned his head to look at the huge Gesang flower in the city. The flower was swaying gently in the wind and snow, and sprinkled a little silver dust, like pollen and teardrops.

The same scene was also played out on other Yuan Rong cavalrymen. Just before Targu's long knife was about to hit Xie Yunlan's arm, Gesang flowers bloomed on his body. The most common and small flowers on the grassland became an indestructible cage at this moment. All the Yuan Rong cavalry were bound in this green cage net.

This was an unexpected scene, whether it was Xie Yunlan and the others, or the monster dragon hovering in the sky.

This was probably the first time a host was against it. It was Gesang's obsession to go home, but at this moment, another belief rushed up from her heart, allowing her to temporarily get rid of the control of the demon.

She didn't want Wei Chengzhi to die.

The flowers bloomed in the wind and snow, and the power of the dream was divided into two strands, fighting against each other.
