As she turned to leave the injured camp, a stranger called her from behind: "Miss Lu."
Qiong also turned around and saw a man half-clad in soft armor. He seemed to be someone who worked on the battlefield. He was quite good-looking. She didn't recognize him, so she took a second look to confirm that she really didn't know him, but the person in front of her looked very disappointed, as if she had forgotten him again.
He said: "I am Xie Yangyu."
In fact, Qiong Yi didn't know who Xie Yangyu was at all. He was afraid that he was an old acquaintance with him, which would make him sad. He was also worried that he had met him several times. If he still didn't remember it at this time, it would seem that he was out of his mind. There are some problems, so I can only pretend to be enlightened and say with a smile: "Oh! It's you!"
He smiled, very gracefully: "Yes. What are you doing here?"
"Me?" Qiong Yi took out the note from his arms and handed it over: "I want to ask someone to help me see what is written on it."
As she lowered her head to dig out something, Xie Yangyu could easily see the marks on her neck. The dark red color was very dazzling and looked like bite marks. Because there were particularly obvious tooth marks, she was furious in her heart: Sheng Xuanyuan, that beast! Lu Xiyan is already like this now, but he still doesn't know how to exercise restraint or show mercy! She was such a good girl, but she was poisoned to save her sect and became insane, yet he... was really not worthy of her! No matter what, it doesn’t deserve it!
Qiong was also a little timid. She was not used to spending so much time with people other than Sheng Xuanyuan. She asked in a low voice: "Is it difficult to understand?"
"Yes." Xie Yangyu gritted his teeth and smiled: "The word is ugly."
Qiong also seemed to understand and nodded.
"The note said that he will not come to the village for the next few days. He has something to do." Even though he was disgusted with Sheng Xuanyuan, Xie Yangyu still told Qiong Yi truthfully, although his tone was changed to be less friendly. if.
Qiong Yi paused obviously: "Oh." Then he turned around and left.
"Lu Xiyan!" Xie Yangyu stopped her: "If you need someone to accompany you, I can..." Before the word "accompany you" was uttered, Qiong Yi took over and asked, "Can you help me call Sheng Jing back? ?”
He was stunned, silent for a long time, and asked: "Do you like him so much?"
Qiong also thought for a long time about her bedmate who was not gentle at all last night, and how he had been with her for so long and how good he was in everything, and nodded.
"Then I'll go call him for you." Xie Yangyu raised the corners of his lips: "Ask him to come back and accompany you."
Qiong Yi's eyes lit up: "Thank you! You are really..." She tilted her head and thought for a while: "You are a good person!" Then she took the note from his hand and ran away happily.
*
Qiong Yi was wandering around the village. Almost all the villagers knew her, and even those who didn't knew her looked familiar to her. Someone's wife saw that she didn't seem to comb her hair today, so she knew that Sheng Xuanyuan was busy with something and was not with her, so she invited her to sit in the house and have a bowl of tea.
Qiong also felt that getting along with these villagers would be much easier than getting along with the monks in the camp, because the villagers did not know what kind of person they were originally, and if there was no gap, they would not put pressure on her.
The villagers saw with their own eyes that she improved day by day from being dull and silent. They were also pleased to see her speaking more eloquently. Although everyone didn't know who Qiong Yi was on the front line or what her achievements were, she was kind-hearted and had a nice voice. She was clearly a pretty girl, and her smile was enough to make people like her.
The sky was dim, the clouds in the dusk sky rolled into bright red, and the evening scene was pleasant.
Qiong Yi, who was half full, slowly returned to the narrow room and sat at the door waiting for Sheng Xuanyuan. She still believed in the man named Yu, and felt that as long as he talked to Sheng Xuanyuan, Sheng Xuanyuan would definitely Can come back before dark.
She waited at the door, until the red clouds in the sky were swallowed up by dark purple, until her legs and feet were so numb that she couldn't move, but she still didn't wait for him.
Qiong also felt that maybe Sheng Xuanyuan didn't like her anymore, so he didn't come back even after dark.
She stood up holding on to the door frame. The soles of her feet were numb as if there were millions of ants crawling on them. She didn't want to wait any longer and wanted to go into the house and lie down, because lying down was more comfortable than sitting.
At this moment, there was a "tap-tat" stamping sound on the roof tiles. The sound was very subtle. Qiong Yi noticed it somehow. He looked up in confusion and saw a man holding a big knife jumping from the air. , a cold light suddenly appeared on the half-man long machete, and it was aimed at him and slashed down hard.
At that moment, Qiong Yi felt that she was definitely going to die here, and that she would never have the chance to meet Sheng Xuanyuan again in her life. But to her surprise, she neither screamed nor was hit. Instead, he dodged it lightly, as if it was engraved in his bones.
"is her?"
"It's her. The guidance left by the commander-in-chief is unmistakable."
"While no one is discovering the camp over there, take action!"
The voice of a strange man came from behind, and Qiong turned around, only to see that in addition to the man who fell from the sky to hack her to death, two more men in black jumped out, both armed and tall.
She was a little flustered and asked puzzledly: "Who are you?"
Hearing Qiong Yi speak, the pupils of the people in front of them shrank: "Wasn't she poisoned by Commander Yungu's soul-purifying poison? How could she still be conscious and able to speak?!"
"Don't worry about it, kill her quickly! Otherwise we won't be able to accomplish anything and will have to wait for death!"
The three men slashed at her with knives, and Qiong Yi dodged between the blades: "Why don't you answer my question?"
"crazy?"
Qiong Yi's eyes darkened. She couldn't understand what they said, but she could still understand the curse words. She replied: "You are crazy."
The next moment, the trees behind the narrow house rustled loudly, and she realized that there were far more than three people coming. They should have come to kill people, but what Qiong Yi was afraid of at this moment was not that she would be killed, but that if they rushed into the village If someone kills someone, what will she do?
The swords of the three people in front of her were slashing very fast, and Qiong Yi dodged faster. She felt a shadow flying over her head, and subconsciously looked towards the other side of the village. A long knife suddenly stabbed from behind her, and she With the stabbing sound of "shua", Qiong Yi's body trembled, and the attacker penetrated his body with a knife from behind.
After he pierced himself, he kicked her again, freeing her from the knife, and fell to the ground with a "plop". There was a very painful hole in her abdomen, and a lot of warm things seemed to flow out. , fishy, sweet, and sticky, slowly flowing out along with the consciousness in the brain.
Qiong Yi covered the blood hole, her body was cold due to blood loss. The pain of being pierced in her internal organs was unbearable, but what hurt more than that was her head.
My head hurts so much, it hurts so much, the images keep flashing back in my mind, like something that was buried and torn into pieces, was dug out and pieced together completely.
Beyond the pain, she heard the words of the attackers:
"Is it solved so easily?"
"I really don't know what the commander-in-chief is worried about, but he actually dispatched so many people to kill her..."
"Perhaps she messed up the last attack and realized that this person can't be kept."
"That's right. After all, it involves the king's secret order. How can we guess the commander's thoughts?"
"But our three hundred soldiers came here to kill only her. It's really not worth the loss! There seem to be a lot of people in this village. Grab a few women and eat them. Let's kill the rest."
"Let's play with this first, it looks quite pretty."
"Too much blood, not interesting."
"Yes, let's go."
"..."
What they said were not pronunciations that Qiong Yi was familiar with, but she could understand them completely.
The last time I fell in a pool of blood, there were many screams. What did I see and what did I do...
It seems that I remembered a little bit...
"You will live forever...in ignorance..."
The man took his hand from her neck, pulled out the Xinge Sword from her body, and threw her with the corpses on the ground. Those words that were like a curse really swallowed up all her consciousness, and she fainted. He began to lose all consciousness, and everything in the world disappeared piece by piece like foam.
It turns out that he... Mo Yungu... is the commander-in-chief of Xirong...
He killed my classmates, ate the bodies of my junior brothers and sisters in front of my eyes, and also killed Xiaosi and Lu Li...
I……
Qiong Yi held his forehead, and the pain in his head reached its peak. The bloody scenes from the past overlapped with the blood pool in front of his eyes. The memories were connected, and he remembered the constant wailing of his classmates after his talent was revealed by him, and he thought of Xiao Si's sacrifice for him. Blocking the knife and being nailed to death in the mountain of corpses, I remembered that even though I tried my best, I couldn't kill him, let alone protect everyone...
"...Cough! Cough!"
Qi surged from the Dantian and sealed the bleeding point in the abdomen. Qiong Yi slowly stood up from the bloody ground and staggered two steps. She remembered the fear deep in Mo Yun's eyes when he was withdrawing his troops.
No matter the blank, no matter the hole, she seriously injured him before the reinforcements arrived. She didn't win, but he lost.
Completely defeated.
The brightly lit village in front of us has already erupted into harsh cries for help: "Ah! Help!"
"Help! Help me!! -"
Qiong Yi took a deep breath and called with one hand. The Xiange sword that had been resting for a long time in the narrow room flew out through the broken window and returned to the owner's hand. In his hand was the heavy and cold breath of the sword that had not been seen for a long time. As he moved, he was dyed with blood. The red cyan figure has disappeared from the place.
In the village, the Rong people were killing people in the house, and people were running around in the street. Qiong also remembered that the Rong people seemed to have mentioned "three hundred soldiers" just now, and the villagers couldn't help but run away. They raised their hands to use the wind to push them to the side of the house. Juan shouted: "Go back to the house! Lock the door! It's not safe outside!!!"
When she rushed into the house where the soldiers were, the beast was lying on top of the woman. Three or four soldiers divided their work in an orderly manner. Some were guarding, and some were holding machetes against the heart-wrenching husband. Seeing Qiong He also rushed in, Rong Ren looked horrified, raised his knife and slashed at the man huddled in the corner.
At the moment when the blade was about to fall, something invisible protected the villagers. Qiong also moved forward and aimed a sword at the violent Rong who was lying on the ground, but was blocked by his companion: "Why is she not dead?!"
Qiong Yi moved in with his sword, and the air flow bounced away the tormentor. Xian Ge penetrated straight from the top of his head, cutting the bones like mud, and the man died instantly. Feng Ning protected the woman, wrapped her up and helped her up. When the husband saw that his wife had been saved, regardless of the danger, he rushed forward and hugged her and hid behind the house. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Rong people rushed out of the house to send a signal to the ambushing men. Qiong Yi had known that he would do this, and he summoned Xian Ge with his sword to fly away. The moment the silver light pierced his chest, the sharp bones The sound of the flute has spread far.
Qiong Yi frowned. One of the two people left in the house rushed to kill herself, and the other wanted to kill the two villagers. She blocked the door of the house with her body in the wind and asked in fluent West Desert dialect: "Is there an ambush?" how many people?"
"Go to hell!"
Under the light of Ruxue's sword, the corpse was divided into two parts. Qiong Yi used the wind to pick up the remaining person, holding it in his left hand, and asked again: "How many people are in ambush?"
The man couldn't get away no matter what, and tried his best not to answer.
Qiong Yi didn't have the patience to ask him any more, and suddenly clenched her fists. Under the pressure of the rapidly flowing wind, the man's body was instantly twisted, and he was compressed into a human-shaped meat pie. She kicked the meat pie out of the door and jumped out. There were still villagers on the street running away blindly out of excessive fear. She heard the sound of stepping on leaves from the woods not far away, and shouted loudly: "Go back to the house! Hide in the cabinet in the corner! Don’t even let me out!!”
Shocked by her angry voice, the villagers ran back to their houses crying and locked the doors, and the sounds of moving tables and sealing windows could be heard one after another.
The footsteps on the side of the street were getting closer and closer, until a dense crowd of black-clad soldiers rushed toward them. It was a moonless night, and all the lights in the house were extinguished, but Qiong was standing in the middle of the street, and the things in her eyes became clearer and clearer.
Her mind was far from clear, intertwined with turbidity, as if at a certain moment, she had returned to the day when she was attacked. Holding her head, Qiong Yi felt inexplicably sour in her heart: This is, give me one more time Any chance?
One chance to save everyone.
