A messenger eagle landed at Yanmen Pass, and the messenger immediately delivered the reed tube to the empress.
Long Chen was in the room checking the defense map from Yanmen Pass to Yuncheng.
Last time, Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl rushed towards Yanmen Pass out of anger.
Next time, they won't be so stupid. The place to start the battle is uncertain and there are too many places to defend.
Offense is the best defense, this is true.
Long Chen thought about taking the initiative to attack, but the combat effectiveness of the ghost soldiers was stronger. If he did not rely on danger to hold on, the casualties would be huge.
Just like the last battle, the gunpowder buried in Yanmen Pass killed tens of thousands of ghost soldiers. The role of defenses was very important.
The shadow guard knocked on the door and came in, saying: "King Wu, please come over and discuss matters."
Long Chen stood up and followed the shadow guard to the empress' room.
"Please read the urgent letter sent back by Feng He."
Long Chen received the secret message and said solemnly: "How could this happen? Are they being controlled?"
The letter was talking about the 80,000 barbarians entering the ice field.
Long Chen was very surprised. Everyone knew that the ghost tribe could eat people, so why would the barbarians enter the ice field?
The empress said: "Gan Xin and Mo Lin are over there, why don't they stop them?"
Long Chen said worriedly: "Maybe... they can't stop it."
Gan Xin and Mo Lin must know about such a big move and will definitely stop it.
The barbarians entered the Hera Pass, which showed that the two of them failed to stop them.
"I'll go and see what's going on."
The situation was serious and Long Chen had to go there in person.
Gan Xin and Mo Lin were probably seriously injured or even killed.
The one who can kill the two of them must be a master of the ghost clan.
"Okay, go and come back quickly. I'm worried that this is a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain."
Long Chen is also needed at Yanmen Pass, and the empress is worried that the ghost tribe will sneak attack while Long Chen is away.
"Don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I'm done with it. I'll notify the barbarians at Yanmen Pass immediately and ask Tu Zhi to recall the barbarians who are grazing."
After defeating the ghost tribe, the barbarians poured out of Yanmen Pass to graze their animals, and there were many of them.
Long Chen was worried that something would go wrong here.
The empress said: "Don't worry, I will handle it, you go ahead."
Long Chen immediately went back to his room to pack his things and ran to Xixia Yuncheng alone.
The empress immediately sent a message to Tuzhi to inform her of the matter. Tuzhi heard that tens of thousands of barbarians had been taken away from Xixia, and immediately ordered all the barbarians outside the pass to withdraw.
Tu Zhi spread the word that the ghost tribe showed signs of sending troops. The barbarians here had seen the ghost tribe. They were afraid and immediately retreated to the south of Yanmen Pass.
...
Cloud City.
Two horses carried Gan Xin and Mo Lin to the city, and several horses followed to guard them.
The two of them retreated on foot. On the way, they met a waiting rider, who gave the two of them their sitting horses.
The city gate opened and Gan Xin and Mo Lin returned to the city. Donna heard the news and hurriedly found the two of them.
"What happened to the two seniors?"
Both Gan Xin and Mo Lin's right hands were disabled, and their fingers were swollen and bruised, showing signs of decay.
The two people also looked very bad.
Rotting of limbs will produce toxins, which will flow back into the body through the blood, causing systemic poisoning.
This is why amputation is necessary when hands and feet rot.
"Immediately send a message to King Wu, and Li Chengdao leads tens of thousands of barbarians into the ice field."
Gan Xin reluctantly dismounted. When Donna heard this, she was surprised and said, "The injuries to the two seniors were caused by Li Chengdao? Didn't anyone recover them?"
Donna already knew about Gan Xin and Mo Lin's pursuit of the barbarians.
She thought it would be okay if two people took action.
Unexpectedly, the man was not recovered and was severely injured.
"No, send the letter immediately."
Mo Lin also dismounted, and the two quickly walked into the courtyard where Yu Wenkai was.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yang Hu. Gan Xin asked anxiously: "Is Old General Yuwen here? Save us."
Yang Hu looked at the two people's arms and said in surprise: "Who did it?"
Gan Xin sighed: "It's a long story. Please help me, old general."
Yu Wenkai heard the sound and walked out of the room.
"You two...get the knives."
Yu Wenkai didn't talk nonsense, Yang Hu entered the room and took out a sharp dagger.
"sit down!"
Gan Xin and Mo Lin sat down under the eaves. Yu Wenkai's sleeves were torn and his right arm was swollen and ulcerated.
"Bear with me."
Yu Wenkai cut off his right arm with a knife, and Gan Xin's face twisted in pain. Yang Hu immediately took out strong liquor to clean the wound, and then wrapped it with gauze.
Tan Wenyue heard the sound and ran back to the yard quickly. He saw a rotten arm on the ground and Yang Hu was bandaging it.
"How did it happen?"
Tan Wenyue asked in surprise.
Yu Wenkai said: "Kill a death row prisoner and get his blood."
The two were so seriously injured that they needed human blood to survive.
Tan Wenyue went to do it immediately.
Gan Xin's face was pale. After the bandage was completed, Yang Hu helped Gan Xin in and lay down to rest.
After cleaning the dagger with strong liquor, Yu Wenkai looked at Mo Lin and said, "Come here!"
Mo Lin sat down and turned his head. Yu Wenkai cut off his right arm, and Yang Hu cleaned and bandaged the wound.
The two of them were lying in the house, and Yu Wenkai asked Yang Hu to prepare some antidote medicine.
The poisonous blood flowed back, and both of them were poisoned.
Yang Hu went out, and Tan Wenyue came in, holding two large bottles with the blood of death row prisoners in them.
"Drink."
Obviously, Gan Xin and Mo Lin did not secretly drink human blood, otherwise they would not be like this.
He helped the two of them up, each with a bottle of blood.
After drinking, the two of them were in much better condition.
"I admire you for being able to resist eating people."
Tan Wenyue put away the bottle and shook his head with emotion.
Gan Xin laughed miserably and said: "You can't start. If you start for the first time, you won't be able to hold back later."
Mo Lin said: "Everyone I meet on the road is waiting for a ride. My brother cannot take action. If I met a prisoner, I would have taken action long ago."
Yu Wenkai washed his hands, sat down and asked what happened?
Gan Xin explained what happened in detail, and Yu Wenkai said in surprise: "Li Chengdao is so powerful? I fought with him a few months ago, and his cultivation is not enough to hurt you like this."
When Li Chengdao sneaked into Yuncheng, Yu Wenkai and Li Chengdao had a duel.
Li Chengdao was indeed good, but Yu Wenkai didn't think it was enough to beat Gan Xin and Mo Lin like this.
“That’s what we were thinking at the time, we didn’t expect it to be like this.”
Gan Xin and Mo Lin heard what Yu Wenkai said and felt that Li Chengdao had nothing to fear if they both started working together.
Who could have imagined that he would be beaten so badly.
"There's something wrong with Li Chengdao. His cultivation is probably on par with King Wu."
Mo Lin expressed his judgment. He was very close to Long Chen and knew how powerful Long Chen was.
Tan Wenyue looked at Yu Wenkai and said, "Isn't it possible? The young general has cultivated to his true state, and Li Chengdao's cultivation has also reached his true state?"
Yu Wenkai thought for a while and said: "The last time we fought... Li Chengdao seemed to have withdrawn his strength."
I didn't think much about it last time, but now that I think about it carefully, it seems there is something wrong.
"Li Yuanba is stuck in the real realm, but Li Chengdao can actually break through?"
Tan Wenyue couldn't believe it.
Yang Hu came in with two bowls of antidote. Tan Wenyue took one bowl and helped the two of them drink it.
"Thank you two old generals."
Gan Xin and Mo Lin felt embarrassed.
Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue had special status, so they actually gave them medicine.
"This matter must be told to Long Chen. If Li Chengdao really cultivates to his true state, there will be three masters on the opposite side. The situation is not good."
Yu Wenkai felt that the balance had been broken. The ghost clan had three masters. During the battle, if Li Chengdao entangled the empress, and Wu Sheng and the ghost girl besieged Long Chen, Long Chen would definitely not be able to hold on.
