After a sleepless night, Yan Shu was thinking about something and couldn't fall asleep again.
It was just dawn, and everyone woke up one after another. The sounds of killing on the top of the mountain could still be vaguely heard. In this dark night, I don't know how the soldiers on the battlefield spent their time.
"Do you often fight for a long time on the battlefield?" Yan Yan asked the soldiers next to her. She knew that the soldiers sent by Yan Lie to protect him must have been on the battlefield for a long time and were not ordinary soldiers.
"To answer the princess, yes, sometimes it takes two or three days, and sometimes it takes ten days and a half month." The soldier replied respectfully.
"Can you bear it physically? Are you not thirsty or hungry?" Yan Yan was so surprised that she couldn't imagine it at all.
"It's okay to stay up for two or three days. After all, both sides are the same. Their physical strength will get weaker and weaker. It depends on who can persist to the end. If it lasts longer, the two sides will agree to a truce on the spot and rest for a while before starting the battle."
Yan Shuan always knew that soldiers were very hard, but she didn't expect it to be so hard. Fortunately, she had hoped to marry a military commander before. It would be best if he could be stationed at the border all year round without coming back, so that she could be completely free and do whatever she wanted. Now that I think about it, I was really selfish at the time and my idea was really ridiculous. She didn't even know Li Xiao, so she forced herself into his heart, and now she doesn't even know if he is still alive.
Perhaps because of guilt, or because she really misses her, she just wants to find Li Xiao as soon as possible, and then tell him that she will never let him leave again...
"Princess, should we go down the mountain directly now?" the soldier asked.
Yan Shu slowly came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "The environment at the bottom of the mountain is harsh. According to Song Tiezhu, it is difficult for anyone to survive. He said that he saw many caves on the mountainside. Let's find all these caves first. See Let’s see if we can get any new clues.”
"Yes." The soldiers arranged for them to go down, and Song Tiezhu led the way. Everyone began to search horizontally in this area.
Not long after, two more caves were found not far away, but there was no trace of previous visits. Everyone did not stay too long and continued to search in the thick fog.
"Princess, should we separate several teams to search?" the soldier asked.
"No need, if we are separated and encounter any emergency, it will be difficult to send a signal for help. It doesn't matter if we go slower, we can all go together so that we can take care of each other," Yan Shu said. She was naturally anxious, but she hoped that everyone who came together could go back together, and she couldn't let these soldiers lose their lives here.
The group of people continued to move forward, and after exploring for about a quarter of an hour, they discovered several more caves. However, the cave here was obviously larger than the cave where they spent the night last night. There was also a spring flowing slowly in the cave. You can vaguely hear the sound of wind and water, which seems to lead to somewhere else through the mountain.
"Can this water be drunk?" Yan Shu asked to himself.
"You can drink it." A strange voice came from behind.
Yan Yan turned around hastily, but there was no one behind her. The soldiers who came with her were nowhere to be seen. None of them were seen. Yan Shu rubbed her eyes and saw an old man with white beard and white hair walking in from outside the cave. He had a fairy-like demeanor and a smile in his eyes.
In a blink of an eye, the old man arrived in front of Yan Shu. Yan Shu didn't even see clearly whether he was walking over or floating over.
"Old god?" After Yan Shu finished speaking, her eyesight went dark and she fainted...
