As the ghosts disappeared, the gloomy fog that originally covered the sky gradually dissipated, revealing a crescent moon in the clouds, like a mirror and a disk, and the moonlight leaked to the ground through the roof of the broken house.
Song Xin was still scared at this moment. If the man in white hadn't asked, he might have died. But this time there was no danger, and it was considered a happy ending.
But those portraits made him a bit unbearable, especially when General Xie Bian said that he would give his ghost soldiers to them as slaves. He didn't even think about rejecting them quickly. These two might be handsome men in the underworld. , just thinking about these two people following me all the time, gave me chills down my spine.
"Little girl, can you show up? I have something to say."
"What happened? Are those weirdos gone?"
Song Xin took the soul-nurturing jade guide and said, "You can attach it to the meeting gift that the two ghost generals gave you just now. It will be very good for you." Song Xin saw that the two ghost generals acted in accordance with the law. There is no doubt whether this Yugui is really what they said.
"Okay, he looks so beautiful. Can you put him in the jade piece?"
Song Xin used his spiritual consciousness to put Yugui into the jade piece, and looked at the little girl sitting on it, "It's so comfortable. I feel my mind is much clearer. Thank you, Song Xin."
"Since it's so effective, you should make Yugui your home. It's much better than this jade piece."
"I like this new home very much too. Haha."
"They called you Youjia, do you remember this name?"
"Well, no, but it's vaguely familiar." She shook her head and said.
After hearing this, Song Xin sighed secretly. This little girl must have been wandering outside for too long and lost a lot of her soul power, causing her to lose her memory. Perhaps after he has practiced for a period of time and his soul power has recovered, he will be able to recall her life experience.
"I keep calling you little girl. It's not convenient for a little girl. Those two ghost generals call you Youjia. How about I use this name from now on?"
"Hmm..I don't like this name. It doesn't sound good at all."
"Then do you have a name you like?" Song Xin continued to ask.
"Yeah, I think I did, but I can't remember it." The little girl replied.
"Well, I see that the moon in the sky is as bright as jade, and you were originally living in a piece of jade. The ghost general gave you Yugui again, and named you after jade. How about calling you Xiaoyu? When you grow up, you will be called Yujing. ,how?"
"Well, Xiaoyu, Yujing, hahaha, I like Song Xin very much. Please call me Xiaoyu from now on." The little girl said happily.
"Okay, I'm going to practice, you go and have fun."
"Yeah, the new home looks nice."
Song Xin coaxed her that she would grow up like a human in the future, but Song Xin had never heard of ghosts being able to grow up, and they usually looked like they did before death. Song Xin sighed secretly, ignored it, and began to practice with his eyes closed.
The sky is bright. Song Xin opened his eyes and saw that Song Ya was already awake.
"Cousin, you kept talking in your sleep last night, did you sleep well?" Song Ya asked with concern.
"Oh? What did I say?"
"Well, it seems to be some general or something. He must be too tired from the journey. Hurry up and use some dry food. We have to continue to detect intelligence."
Song Xin didn't explain much. It was better that Song Ya didn't know about this kind of underworld thing. He also carefully checked whether Song Ya's body was contaminated with soul essence. This thing can be fatal to people without cultivation. But okay, everything is normal.
The two used some dry food, found a stream nearby, washed their faces, filled their water bags, then got on their horses and continued riding west.
At noon, the two of them saw several military camps ahead. From a distance, there were many people and horses running around among them, which looked very busy. Song Ya raised his eyes to look for the large banner of the Chinese army, hoping to find out whose army it belonged to.
"Cousin, look, the one on the big flag is General Zhao of Yamen. It must be Zhao Zilong's military camp."
"Changshan Zhao Zilong!?" Song Xin perked up as soon as he heard it. This name would be very resounding in later generations.
"You actually know him?"
"Well, I heard about the Savior riding alone."
Unexpectedly, Song Ya was stunned, "What is the solo savior? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Song Xin felt astonished that his cousin didn't know about such outstanding deeds in later generations. Suddenly I thought about how it was possible for Cao's army to publicize the bravery of the enemy generals.
He immediately changed his words, pointed to the camp ahead and said, "Cousin, look there is a group of civilians over there transporting luggage to the camp. Why don't we sneak in and take a look." Song Xin suggested.
"Well, but these two horses have to be abandoned." Song Ya patted the two groups of horses that had been following him for several days.
"Bringing horses in will arouse suspicion, so why don't we help the civilians carry some baggage."
"That's fine," Song Ya said. Then the two of them led their horses and approached the group of peasants.
"Who are you waiting for?" The leader of the civilian team was a soldier. He shouted when he saw the two approaching.
"Sir, we are common people from the north of the Yangtze River fleeing from the war. However, we were penniless and hungry after crossing the river. We hope to follow you and help transport the baggage. We just want food, clothing and shelter. We still have two horses. The horse can help you carry some food and supplies." After saying this, Song Ya bowed to the soldier.
"Well, since we are common people and we have horses, it's okay. Just follow me and carry some luggage." The soldier said.
When the two men saw the soldier agreeing, they pretended to be frightened, and each of them held a grain bag and put it on the horse's back. Follow the group towards the military camp.
After half an hour, the team entered the military camp. Only then did Song Xin see the situation of this camp clearly. Song Ya admired from the side that the camp was well organized, with antlers, pits, and trenches in order. It was divided into two layers, the inner layer with high terrain and the outer layer with low terrain. There were trenches separating the inside and outside.
The archers are inside, and the spearmen and shield bearers are stationed outside. If the enemy attacks the camp, they can use the contradiction cards to resist the enemy in front, and the strong bows and crossbows behind.
There are small tents of the Guards on the left and right of the Chinese army's big tent. The granary is two hundred steps behind the general's tent and has three layers of guards.
As Song Xin and others stored the grain in the granary, soldiers came over and arranged for them to rest at the civilian camp to the west of the camp. Here outside the main camp, the defense is obviously much weaker.
"Brothers, where are we going? Are we going to Jiangbei? My brother and I just came over there. Except for me, everyone in the family is dead." Song Ya said to him with a cry. said the leading soldier.
"Don't worry, we won't cross the river."
Song Ya and the two secretly looked at each other when they heard that Zhao Yun must be preparing to go south, otherwise the deployment and preparation of such military rations would definitely not be as simple as just stationing. The two guessed as they saw the full granary not far away.
When they arrived at the civilian husband's station, the two exchanged opinions. It seems that Liu Beijun will definitely make a move, but he seems to be waiting for an opportunity.
"The two of us need to find out when they will go south, and then find a way to escape and return to Jiangbei to report to the Prime Minister and General Cao Ren." Song Ya said.
"Well, what my cousin said is true, but we will definitely be discovered if we infiltrate. Zhao Zilong is really a talented general. Looking at his camp layout, you know that infiltrating or breaking in is impossible." Song Xin said.
"This is quite tricky. It would have been easier for the others, but they ended up in Zhao Zilong's camp." Song Ya said.
This matter is quite tricky. If you take the risk to investigate, you will definitely be discovered.
"It's a pity that the Ghost General took away all the souls within a thousand miles radius last night. Damn it, if I had known this, I would have begged him to leave a few for me." Song Xin cursed in his heart.
"Otherwise, call that Xie Bian out and see if he can think of a way." Song Xin suddenly thought of an idea.
