The moment the masked man turned into black mist and tried to fly away, a terrifying bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the sky and flashed past his eyes.
Faster than lightning, he didn't even have time to scream!
Then he felt a chill on his neck, and the spiritual sword in his hand fell to the ground with a bang, and he covered his neck with both hands!
"Crack!" There was a soft sound, but a masked human head fell to the ground, and a terrifying bloody arrow shot straight up!
In a few moments, a golden soul flew into the sky, trying to escape outside the military camp...
"Quack!" sounded, but like lightning, the crow swallowed up the soul in one mouthful and let out a triumphant cry.
"Go and have a look, that guy Jun Buyu!"
The crow was not familiar with Wang Yufeng, and it was worried that Jun Buyu, who had been silent in the tent, had been seriously injured by the masked man in black.
In this way, he was afraid that he would have to be taught a lesson by Li Xiuyuan again when he turned around.
Jun Wuyou's figure flashed, and he pulled Wang Yufeng and flew away into the tent, followed by a scream: "Brother... wake up... come and help..."
The crow screamed in fear and flew into the tent.
I thought to myself, "Don't let anything happen to you. Otherwise, how will you explain to Li Xiuyuan, the murderer, when you go back now?"
The sky gradually became brighter, and a sunrise slowly rose from the horizon. Gongsun Yuan, who heard the commotion, rushed in with his military advisor Song Buer.
"Alas!" he sighed.
But Jun Buyu woke up faintly, and the wound on his arm had been bandaged. It was injured by the man in black.
He fainted, but it was because of a sudden black mist that made him breathless for a moment and passed out.
Wang Yufeng also injured her arm. Like Jun Buyu, she also breathed in a breath of black mist and felt uncomfortable.
Military advisor Song Buer came in, looked at Gongsun Yuan and Jun Wuyou and said, "This is an assassin from the Gongsun family, who specializes in carrying out the assassination orders of the family head."
Gongsun Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "These killers are not under our control."
Jun Buyu looked at the crow on the table, thought for a while and said, "My chest is so tight, it's like I can't breathe. Can you go back and ask my brother?"
After saying that, he turned to look at Wang Yufeng.
Wang Yufeng looked at the crow and nodded, saying, "I'm going to die. Please ask the Generalissimo for some elixir. At most, I'll roast meat for you in the future."
Jun Wuyou put down Wang Yufeng's hand and said quietly: "You were injured by the black mist. It seems that we can only consult the Grand Marshal on this matter."
Gongsun Yuan also nodded and said: "These killers are all loyal to the Demon King. Even we are afraid of that black mist."
Wang Yufeng leaned softly on the recliner. Jun Buyu was seriously injured and lay directly on the bed with his eyes closed to rest.
The crow's eyes rolled, and after a moment, he said, "What will you do if I leave?"
"The army continues to move forward!"
Jun Wuyou said in a deep voice: "In two days, we must capture Gaoping Pass, otherwise they will come to trouble us again."
Gongsun Yuan also said: "Yes, as long as we capture that fortress, we won't have to worry about food and grass in the future."
Gongsun Yuan nodded, looked at Song Buer and said, "After breakfast, the army will continue to set off and try to reach Gaoping Pass in two days."
The crow croaked: "Hurry up and cook. When I'm full, I'll go back to find the Generalissimo."
Baijin City, the city lord's mansion.
The room where Li Xiuyuan once lived. When he returned early in the morning, he leaned on the bed and closed his eyes to rest.
The four girls including Princess Qingyue and Chu Feiyan, who were preparing to have breakfast in the living room, did not know that the Generalissimo had returned to the city lord's mansion in the early morning.
Chu Ruoyu looked at Chu Feiyan and asked, "Sister, when will we go to the Demon Realm?"
Chu Feiyan served her a bowl of porridge, thought for a moment and replied, "You have to ask the Grand Marshal about this. If Jun Buyu and the others go well this time, we may leave soon."
Hua Chenyu looked at Princess Qingyue and murmured to himself: "Listen to Li Xiu
Yuan said, "It seems that we have to wait until the autumn harvest and my father sends people to deliver grain and grass before setting off." "
Princess Qingyue looked at the three girls and replied, "You don't need to worry about this matter. Just take care of yourselves."
At this moment, the crow's cry came from the sky.
After a while, the crow flew into the living room, looked at everyone and asked, "Where is the Generalissimo? I have something urgent to do with him... Jun Buyu, that kid has been plotted against."
Chu Ruoyu looked at it with cute eyes and replied: "Generalissimo, shouldn't it be in Taoyuan?"
Princess Qingyue shook her head: "I don't know."
The crow nodded, rolled its eyes, and flew out of the living room with a "Whoosh!" "You are all blind, I will go find him."
Chu Feiyan was stunned, looked at Princess Qingyue and asked, "Is that guy back?"
Princess Qingyue sighed: "Even if he comes back, if he doesn't come out, don't bother him."
Only Qingyue understood that since Li Xiuyuan did not show up, he naturally wanted to go back to the house to rest.
Chu Feiyan and the others could not understand what they had been doing in Taoyuan these past few days.
Hua Chenyu sighed, looked at Chu Feiyan and said, "Sister-in-law, don't disturb him. He will naturally come out to look for something to eat when he is hungry."
Leaning on the head of the bed, Li Xiuyuan asked with half-open eyes, "Tell me, what happened?"
Crow lowered his head and told the scene that happened in the general's camp: "According to the general of the Gongsun family, that was a killer raised by the head of the Gongsun family and the big devil."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and couldn't help cursing: "He is just an idiot. How can he sleep to death when he is marching and fighting?"
Crow shook his head and said carefully: "That guy is pretty good... I devoured his soul, he is a master."
With a chuckle, Li Xiuyuan gently stroked the crow's feathers and said with a smile: "After all, it's quite an advantage for you."
Crow frowned and said, "The guy named Wang Yufeng was also injured by the killer in order to save Jun Buyu. The two of them were in the same situation..."
Li Xiuyuan nodded: "Since you can't die, you can rest in my room for a while and come back after lunch!"
Crow chuckled: "The Generalissimo is still more powerful. Well, when will you leave to join us?"
"Either they capture Gaoping Pass, or I wait for the food and grass from Demon Realm, Dachu, and Tianfeng Kingdom to be delivered."
Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "Don't bother me. I was tired all night yesterday and finally came back to relax for a while."
The crow simply lay aside and stopped talking, thinking that I am also very tired, okay?
It wasn't until after lunch that the crow flew away with the elixir prepared by Li Xiuyuan that Li Xiuyuan told everyone what happened on the front line.
Then looking at Chu Feiyan, Chu Feng and Hua Tianyu said: "Don't think that you have been on the Shura battlefield. People will die on the battlefield in the Demon Realm, let alone the road to heaven."
When Hua Tianyu heard that Jun Buyu was seriously injured, he couldn't help but ask, "Should we leave immediately?"
Unlike Chu Feng, he, Li Xiuyuan and Jun Buyu were officially sworn brothers. When he heard that the brother was seriously injured, he was immediately worried.
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan said softly: "No, they have moved on to attack Gaoping. There will be news in three days."
Chu Feiyan sighed softly and frowned gradually.
Looking at Chu Feng, Hua Tianyu said: "It seems that we must be careful when marching in the future. We must keep our own people on guard at night. We can't all sleep to death."
Princess Qingyue, who was sitting aside, glanced at Li Xiuyuan and saw that he didn't say anything.
Then he said: "We cannot leave our lives in the hands of soldiers whose cultivation is much lower than yours. If there is really an attack on the camp, we will not go to them to cause trouble."
Hua Chenyu glanced at his brother, shook his head gently, took Chu Ruoyu's hand and said, "Why don't you go back to Dachu first? It's really dangerous ahead."
Chu Ruoyu shook her head: "I want to be with you."
The corners of Li Xiuyuan's mouth moved, but in the end he didn't say a lesson, he just waved his hand and said
: "Just wait, if we can capture Gaoping, the crows will come back."
After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and walked out of the living room.
Hua Chenyu stood up and wanted to pull Chu Ruoyu to follow him, but Princess Qingyue held her hand.
"The Generalissimo is in a bad mood, what are you two doing with you?"
Qingyue looked at everyone and said softly: "Think about it carefully, Jun Buyu is also a person who came back from the Shura battlefield. Today, he was a little bit worse and died under the sword of the killer..."
Chu Feng patted the table: "That's his idiot."
Princess Qingyue scolded her coldly: "So, you can't sleep at night? I think you are the idiot, sleeping like a pig."
Hua Tianyu clapped his hands and said, "From now on, we will camp as close to each other as possible, and we will take turns keeping watch at night."
Chu Feiyan glanced at Hua Tianyu and replied to Princess Qingyue: "Let the princess make the decision. I guess the generalissimo is too lazy to care about us."
Princess Qingyue said coldly: "The general of the Silver Moon Kingdom also has to be on duty at night, but he has spoiled everyone over the years."
"That's because you are pigs."
Li Xiuyuan, who was sitting on the carriage, withdrew his consciousness from the city lord's palace, looked at the pear garden not far ahead, and sighed leisurely.
As expected, there is no war to fight in Xindao. Just like the Five Regions back then, when the horses were released in Nanshan, a bunch of generals no longer knew how to fight.
He won't be too worried about Jun Buyu's injury. Gaoping Pass is just a piece of cake in his opinion. If the Demon Realm army can't even defeat him, they might as well crash to death.
After all, this is not about fighting head-on, but about outsmarting someone.
In such hot weather, he wanted to find a cool place to stay. Finally, he could have a bowl of iced sour plum soup, which reminded him of some past events from that year.
After thinking about it, it seemed that he could only have some friendship with the shopkeeper of the Liyuan in Baijin City.
However, this Taoyuan is not a big place. It is estimated that it is rare to find a piece of ice in summer. Where can I get the sour plum soup?
When we entered the Liyuan, there were not many guests. I thought we had just had lunch and everyone had left.
Seeing that there was no one in the garden pavilion, Li Xiuyuan walked in.
I was about to call the waiter to come over and ask, but unexpectedly, a gust of fragrant wind blew behind me, but the sharp-eyed Hua Wuyou came like a gust of wind, bringing a wisp of dark fragrance.
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "Does the shopkeeper want to scare people to death?"
Hua Wuyou reached out and poured two cups of herbal tea on the table and asked, "What time is it now? Is it possible that you haven't eaten yet?"
Leaning lazily on the chair, Li Xiuyuan smiled: "In this hot summer, there is no place to hide. I wonder if you have any good treasures here?"
Hua Wuyou was stunned. She didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan was just bored and wanted to come over and find a place to spend time.
So he waved his hand and called the maid in the garden. With a whisper, the maid covered her mouth and smiled: "The shopkeeper, wait a moment."
After a while, when Li Xiuyuan was holding a bowl of cold sour plum soup, he couldn't help but screamed.
"At this time of year, where are you going to find a piece of ice to cool this bowl of soup?"
Hua Wuyou sighed and said with a smile: "Where am I going to find a piece of ice? This is not a big Chu... There happens to be a well behind the garden..."
Only then did Li Xiuyuan react and smiled faintly: "I didn't expect that since there is no ice, a well of cold water would become a life-saving treasure in summer."
Hua Wuyou asked gently: "You are not one of those boring guys who hang their lives on this bowl of soup. Tell me, what is on your mind?"
After taking a sip of sour plum soup, Li Xiuyuan replied: "During the war ahead, a friend of mine was plotted against."
Hua Wuyou was startled when he heard this and asked, "Where are the people?"
