The bright red blood dripped down the apple, and the silence in the martial arts hall could be heard.
All the generals sitting at the table, including Yuan Xingzhi and Yuan Song, suddenly turned their heads and looked at Qi Xiao, who was sitting next to Feng Xi.
Sadness, anger, regret, complexity...
Various emotions were intertwined in the eyes of the generals. They were waiting for Qi Xiao, the only person in charge of the Qi family who was at the center of their gaze, to speak.
Hamu Baoyin, the left prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, was a powerful general under the command of Geertu, the great lord of the Great Jin Dynasty.
During the bloody battle at Hanyuguan, he was ordered to lead troops to ambush the Jiandao camp of Qi Hong, the second son of the Qi family, and successfully cut off all supplies from Hanyuguan to the Jiandao camp.
Anticipating the enemy beforehand is a stroke of genius...
To this day, the generals of the Chixiao Battalion don't know how the other party managed to detect Qi Shuai's deployment, causing the Jiandao Battalion that made a surprise attack on the Beidi garrison to be directly disconnected from the Hanyuguan battlefield.
It can be said that Hamu Baoyin successfully put the tiger in the Jiandao Camp into a cage and was ready to lead his army to kill him at any time.
However, no one expected that at the critical moment, Qi Hong, the second son of the Qi family, General Jinghong, whom Emperor Sheng De personally appointed, would never think of turning back...
The tiger descended the mountain and moved forward indomitably.
He just rushed into the enemy camp and went straight to the Beidi garrison united with Dajin. He defeated the dragons and snakes and swept away thousands of troops. In his eyes, there was only mission and no life or death...
No one knows what exactly happened that day, except that the Beidi coach was killed, the Beidi army was forced to withdraw to rest outside the territory, and a bright red, broken amulet belonging to Qi Hong was sent to Qi Commander's desk.
The amulet was made by Mrs. Qi. The ugly one was put around Qi Hong's neck by Marshal Qi himself before he went out to fight.
The person who sent this thing back was none other than Hamu Baoyin, who was mentioned by the scouts.
"I'm sorry, it's dirty. Let me cut it again for you."
Facing everyone's gaze, Qi Xiao indifferently put down the apple he was about to peel, wrapped the wound with silk cloth, and then skillfully picked up another one.
The young man's hands are as slender as jade and very stable. Not only does the peel he peels off be of a moderate thickness, but it can also be maintained continuously...
If it weren't for the blood-stained apple on the side and the piece of silk in his hand to stop the bleeding, Feng Xi would really think that there was nothing unusual about him.
Like an emotionless work machine.
That's right, in her eyes Qi Xiao has always been a model worker.
No matter when she was reading the original novel, or in the days when she and Qi Xiao met each other without looking up, she had never seen Qi Xiao slacking off or losing his mind.
Step by step, calm and strong, decisive in killing...
Even though he was severely beaten, forced to kneel, humiliated, and even bled by the original owner, who pricked his finger with a needle and then broke it off, he never cried out.
Since I came to the North, I have gotten up earlier than a chicken and gone to bed later than a dog. I am either working or on the way to work every day. Occasionally, in my free time, I have to help her peel apples, pears, bake sweet potatoes, and barbecue...
Sometimes she really wanted to ask him, will you really not die young if you do this?
But after thinking about it, she seemed to have no position in saying this.
After all, she must have "died" earlier than Qi Xiao. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face to persuade others like this?
Until this moment, she discovered that Qi Xiao didn't seem to have no feelings, nor was he incapable of pain. He was just too tolerant or was used to it, so he didn't take feelings and pain seriously.
Looking at the apple that was put into her hand again, Feng Xi said with rare kindness:
"Do you want to eat it? It's quite sweet."
Qi Xiao was stunned for a moment, his peach blossom eyes slightly raised like ripples in the lake water.
Taking the apple silently, the boy divided the fruit into two halves, giving half to Little Phoenix and half to himself.
While Qi Xiao and Feng Xi were sharing the apples, the other generals also tacitly withdrew their gaze and no longer looked at Qi Xiao, who was obviously in a different state.
"As expected of Hamu Baoyin, he is just a team to check in, but he actually brought five thousand people with him. It seems that Daikin is going to make big moves again in the spring."
"No matter how big or small his moves are, we definitely can't sit still and wait for death! Even if we can't take this guy's head, we will make him regret setting foot on our Jokhang border!"
"Mr. Yuan, order the army to be organized. We are willing to lead the troops to go to war!"
…
In the end, the generals of the Chixiao Battalion headed by Yuan Xingzhi decided to send 10,000 troops tomorrow, led by a veteran general and Yuan Song, to launch a surprise attack on Hamu Baoyin who was on the border.
Another 20,000 people were sent out to inspect several other important places, ready to meet the enemy at any time.
At the same time, Fang Can and others could not help but breathe a sigh of relief after receiving the news.
"That's great, that's great. Hamu Baoyin has come at the right time. We are worried that the Chixiao camp is monolithic, making it difficult for us to take action against that idiot Feng Xi!"
"No, that old guy Yuan Xingzhi sent out all the veterans from Chixiao Camp, and it will take two or three months to integrate the remaining 30,000 people!"
Lin Guangchang laughed, what is a God-given opportunity?
This is it!
Seeing Lin Guangchang and Fang Can being excited, Peng Huan, who was still lying on the couch unable to move, said:
"Don't be too happy too early. Even if there are only 30,000 people left in the Chixiao camp, it will not be easy for us to catch Feng Xi. Don't forget that Qi Xiao has been following Feng Xi recently. We have made several moves. His failure is enough to prove that he may not be very smart, but he is definitely not a fool..."
Especially when it comes to force, he really has a say after being tortured by illness every day recently.
"Eunuch Peng is right, I'm afraid we still have to think of a way..."
Fang Can was convinced.
While the villains were brainstorming ideas, in the small courtyard where Feng Xi temporarily stayed, Qi Xiao was enjoying the snow under the eaves and looking up at the moon.
The cold moonlight contrasted with the white snow on the ground. The young man stood alone, and his long and straight figure actually felt weak for a moment.
"Hamu Baoyin is your brother-killing enemy, and he has carried countless lives of the Qi family's Xuanjia. Qi Xiao, I have long said not to internalize yourself. Since you want to kill your enemy, it would not be a good idea to directly lead the troops to go to war tomorrow. ? Why are you so stubborn? Are you ready to piss yourself off so that I can recruit someone new to you?"
Qi Xiao: "?"
Looking sideways at a certain Phoenix who poked his head out from the window and opened his mouth to accept someone new, Qi Xiao felt that he was really going to be angry to death.
"I want to go on an expedition and kill Hamu Baoyin, but Feng Xi, don't you think it's such a coincidence that Hamu Baoyin comes?"
Qi Xiao curled his lips. He never believed that his enemies would change their minds. He felt that they would only rekindle their ashes, and each time they would become more fierce.
"Something is fishy. You can kill Hamu Baoyin later, but I must stay by your side this time."
"oh……"
Feng Xi tilted her head:
"But what if Hamu Baoyin is killed by someone else? Then won't the truth you want to know and the clues you want to explore be lost? Qi Xiao, you are really considerate."
Qi Xiao was stunned. He wanted to say something else, but Feng Xi suddenly smiled and said:
"What is being considerate? Are you trying to make me happy by abusing yourself? But what should I do? I'm not happy at all."
