Chapter 238: Borrowing a Knife

Seeing that Wen Yunxi and his party were about to step into the trap, they suddenly stopped.

"Rest on the spot and boil a kettle of water for Divine Doctor Wen."

Gu Xia looked around carefully, and after confirming that there was no danger, he helped Wen Yunxi carefully sit on the stone.

Wen Yunxi covered his mouth and coughed a few times. When he removed the brocade handkerchief, it was bright red. When he saw Gu Xia, his heart skipped a beat, "Are you okay?"

Aren't you pretending? Why does it look so real?

This blood doesn't look fake at all.

Is it...

Just when Gu Xia was thinking wildly, Jiha was hesitating whether to abandon the traps directly. Wen Yunxi was vomiting blood. The Liuyun Army's attention was entirely on Wen Yunxi. If they rushed over now, they would definitely be caught off guard.

Haji didn't notice that as Wen Yunxi and his party got closer and closer, they also focused all their attention on Wen Yunxi, so much so that they ignored other sounds.

Shi Yan was lying on the grass, looking at the people with their backs turned, sneering and waving.

By the time Jiha realized something was wrong, Liu Yunjun had already rushed in front of them, "Oops, I've fallen into a trap!"

Half an hour later, Shi Yan threw Jiha at Wen Yunxi's feet.

"He's the leader."

Shi Yan had heard about this group of people for a long time, but they had never interfered with each other, and had never actually fought against each other. Just after the battle, he realized that this group of desperadoes was difficult to deal with. Fortunately, their numbers far exceeded each other this time, otherwise the result would be It's hard to say.

Wen Yunxi only glanced at Jiha casually, then stood up to check the casualties. The Liuyun Army cooperated extremely well and had the upper hand. Although the opponent was difficult to deal with, except for ten people who were seriously injured, the rest suffered from superficial injuries. Nothing serious.

"Doctor Wen, I didn't really want to go against you. I was just pretending. Xuan Lin forced me to do it. Everything was his conspiracy!"

Jiha cried so hard that his black face was covered with mud, and he looked quite pitiful.

Wen Yunxi chuckled, but his voice was cold: "From the moment you sent someone to assassinate Xuan Lin, you had no choice but to die!"

Jiha's expression froze. He had suspected Xuan Lin after he found out that he had fallen into the trap. But if that was the case, he would be the biggest fool and he would have no way of survival at all, so he didn't want to think about it deeply and only placed his hope on Wen Yunxi. Extremely smart and able to detect danger in advance.

In this case, he might still be able to find a way out by betraying Xuanlin's peace talks conditions.

Now that there is no way to survive, Jiha stopped pleading and said sarcastically: "If I die, how long can you, Wen Yunxi, live? You are also a fool who is being taken advantage of!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yan pierced his chest, "Drag him down and bury him."

"Doctor Wen, their lair is on the way back. Do you want me to send someone over to take a look first?"

Wen Yunxi rubbed his throbbing forehead and said, "It's too late."

She had long planned to eliminate Jiha's group of killers, so when she learned of Xuanlin's plan, she was willing to cooperate, but she overlooked one thing.

In order to deal with her, Jiha brought the entire village with him. All the valuables were in the village. Xuan Lin could take this opportunity to loot them all. Even if she knew about Jiha's lair, there would only be an empty house left.

"You used me as a knife, let's make it even now."

Seven hundred corpses were buried under the tree, continuing to nourish them and thrive. Shi Yan passed by a towering tree and almost wanted to dig it out to see how many corpses were buried underneath.

"Brother Yan, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about which tree I will be buried in the future."

There are losses and wins, life and death, and no one can escape this fate. No one noticed, a hand broke through the soil, grabbed the tree trunk and climbed up.

Xuan Lin! Wen Yunxi! I remember this grudge!

……

At the foot of Wuqi Mountain.

The four northern tribes have been stationed here for dozens of days. No matter how many troops the opponent sends, they remain unmoved. Even if they learn of Sang Fu's death, they will not relax at all as long as the opponent does not surrender.

At the most tense moment, not only the young men of the four northern tribes, but also the women and the elderly came from the tribe, vowing not to let any Red Moon Army member go.

"Oh, why did you bring the baby with you!"

In the afternoon, Xu Yu was standing at the intersection waiting for the grain transport team. He was startled when he saw a woman sitting with a milk baby in her basket.

Shu Xia grinned, "What are you afraid of? It's just a good time for him to see the world."

The four northern tribes live in a harsh environment. They grew up in danger and developed a bloody and courageous nature in their bones. Even so, Shu Xia's bold move still surprised Xu Yu.

In order to always be on guard against the Red Moon Army charging into the formation on the opposite side, the young men of the four northern tribes could not move at will, so the women and the elderly took on the task of transporting food. They lasted for dozens of days over a journey of three or four days.

“Wow, there’s bacon!”

"It's from the brothers of the Honglin tribe. Come on, Ashu, don't be shy."

Because the business road opened in the red forest, the people of the Honglin tribe needed to guide the way. Although they were a little scared at first, after getting along with them, they found that they were actually quite good people. Although Wen Yunxi started a war with Sang Fu, the business road did not stop. The Honglin tribe There were only more than a hundred people, so they couldn't help much. When they learned that the four northern tribes were blocking the Red Moon Army in Wuqi Mountain, they thought of sending some meat over.

Ashu felt a little uncomfortable being seen by everyone. He hesitated and spoke some broken Chinese. Regardless of whether they understood it or not, he squatted aside and stopped talking.

Seeing that he was uncomfortable, everyone stopped crowding around him and continued to check the food that was delivered.

In addition to bacon, there are also red dates, mung beans, wheat flour, rice, dried vegetables and some medicinal herbs for nourishing the body. A small part comes from their clan, but most of them are transported through the trade routes and are delivered to their clan in batches as if they are free. .

Xu Hui nodded with satisfaction, gave everyone a few instructions, and went to discuss with the other three clan leaders.

An hour later, the rich aroma of meat filled the air and was carried far away by the wind.

"Alas...they are stewing meat again."

The two sides faced each other across the river. They listened to the howls and howls of the wolves on the opposite side every day, and were tempted by the aroma of various foods. After dozens of days, it became increasingly difficult.

Shuishu lowered his head and glanced at the pancake in his hand. It was cold, hard and dry, with wild vegetables mixed in with the grains. It was small and unpalatable.

"Sigh... I haven't eaten meat for a long time."

Although the Northeastern garrison is not far from Black Rock City, they seem to be stepmothers. Good things never get to them. Although the military pay is the same, their food is the worst. They have gruel and dried vegetables every day, and they can only eat two days a month. Even a little bit of meat and fish is considered a mercy.

"Do you think what they shouted these days is true or false?" Xu Xiaoyu asked in a low voice.

Shuishu looked around, then whispered into the young man's ear: "I hope it's true."

Ordinary soldiers don't know the truth, but the generals above know it very well. They received the exact news two days ago, but everyone has never reached a unified opinion.

The Yi family advocated surrender, but the generals on the other side wanted to turn around and capture the northern tribes and establish themselves as kings.

Just when the two sides were arguing and about to start a fight, Hong Dong and three others appeared in the military camp. (End of chapter)
