A faint light illuminated the man's face, and when he got closer, Gu Xiaotian couldn't help but frown.
This person is none other than Xingfeng.
Not far away, there was a rustling sound in the grass.
Immediately afterwards, more than 20 people jumped out of the grass, followed Xingfeng, and walked in the direction of Gu Xiaotian.
When he was still about five feet away, Xingfeng stopped, holding a lantern in his hand, and said with a smile: "I never imagined that we would meet in this way."
Only then did Gu Xiaotian clearly see the people behind Xingfeng. Most of them were dressed in casual attire. Only a few were in military uniforms. However, he could immediately tell that this group of people was different from those in the camp. Everyone, without exception, is extremely difficult to deal with.
Gu Xiaotian frowned, but still said calmly: "I didn't expect that you have been waiting for me for a long time?"
Yukikaze nodded.
Gu Xiaotian took a long breath, scratched his face and asked, "When did you find out?"
Xingfeng said bluntly: "From the moment you entered the Xu family's mansion."
"Don't forget, this is Northern Wasteland."
Gu Xiaotian laughed dryly. There was indeed nothing wrong with what this guy said. After all, this was still the Northern Wilderness. How could anything happen escape the Xing family's eyes?
Xingfeng looked at the three people behind Gu Xiaotian and called out: "Yuan Shu, Chu Diantu, Ma Sheng, are you three sure you want to continue to stand there?"
The three of them were a little confused.
Xingfeng smiled and said: "You were all once Mobei soldiers. I can help you clean up the injustices you suffered before and restore your innocence. Don't turn your elbows out at this time."
The three of them looked at each other, but soon their expressions changed from hesitant to firm, and they still stood behind Gu Xiaotian, motionless.
Yukikaze raised his eyebrows, seeming to be surprised by the result.
Seeing the situation, Gu Xiaotian couldn't help but ridiculed: "Xingfeng, you are too hypocritical to win the hearts of the people."
Yukikaze wasn't angry either, and instead said, "What's wrong, you three? Don't you like the gifts you gave to the three of you earlier?"
Yuan Shu asked: "What gift?"
Xingfeng pointed behind him, "Don't you think it's strange? You were also born in the Mobei Army. You should know the significance of this mountain to Mobei City. This is the intermediate hub connecting several cities. Except for Mobei City, the other cities look like It is attached to Beihuang, but who has no ambition to become the main city of Beihuang? In such a big mountain, I asked me to transfer all the soldiers, leaving only a few battalions. Isn't this what you want most? Do you want a gift?"
Only then did the three people react.
Ma Sheng asked, "If it was really a gift, why would two casual cultivators attack me?"
Naturally, he was referring to mountain tigers and dragon carps.
Xingfeng spread his hands and said, "You always have to put on a show. If it's really for free, wouldn't the one with the best mind among you notice something?"
Xingfeng looked at Gu Xiaotian with a sly smile.
Gu Xiaotian twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered in return.
Xingfeng continued the invitation: "What do you think, you three, really don't consider returning to the Mobei Army?"
The three Yuan Shus were all born in the Mobei Army, so they naturally have very strong feelings for the military camp. If they had no feelings for the military camp, they would not participate in this plan.
Now that the olive branch has been extended, the hearts of the three of them can't help but feel a little swayed.
That was the place they wanted to go back to every day and every night, and the opportunity was right in front of them.
Xingfeng continued to add weight: "I promise the three of them that after returning to the Mobei Army, each of them will be promoted to one level!"
Since ancient times, rights have been the most attractive thing.
The strength of the three Yuan Shus is not weak in the first place. They were suppressed in the military camp because they were not very understanding of the world. As a result, their positions have not been improved. Now with Xingfeng's promise, the three of them It's inevitable to be a little tempted.
Gu Xiaotian didn't say anything about this, just silent.
If the three of them were really moved in this way, Gu Xiaotian wouldn't feel sorry. This kind of thing just depends on
Knowing this person's identity will save me a lot of trouble in the future.
To those who want to leave, if you say one more word, it is all about begging!
The two sides stood facing each other like this.
The breeze blew by, rustling the sleeves. No one on either side said a word. Everyone's eyes were on Yuan Shu and the other three, waiting for their final answer.
Yuan Shu suddenly chuckled twice.
Gu Xiaotian and Xingfeng raised their heads at the same time and looked at him.
"Mr. Xing, this offer is indeed very generous. I can't seem to refuse."
Xingfeng smiled, moved half of his body, leaned over slightly, and made a gesture of invitation, "General Yuan is a smart man, come over here."
However, Yuan Shu did not move a step.
With a bang, Yuan Shu inserted the halberd into the soil and said loudly: "But this Mobei Army is not the Mobei Army I want. The Mobei Army should not be like this!"
With Yuan Shu taking the lead, Ma Sheng and Chu Diantu also expressed their opinions.
Xingfeng's originally smiling face suddenly dropped, and he said in a sinister tone: "Are you three planning to reject me?"
Yuan Shu said calmly: "It's obvious."
Xingfeng shook his head and sighed: "The three of you are still not very smart. If you can't be friends, then you are enemies."
"Then I can only ask you to die."
Then, Xingfeng waved his hand, and the more than twenty people standing behind him immediately surged like a tide.
Gu Xiaotian and his party clenched their weapons tightly, facing the menacing crowd without moving.
The sword energy was hidden but not released.
Until one person came to Gu Xiaotian, Gu Xiaotian finally handed out a sword.
At this moment, the sword energy surged and swept across the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, a troop had gathered here early, and the leader was naturally the second commander of this operation, Xu Ran.
Originally, Xu Ran was sitting in the tent, looking at the sky. Every once in a while, he would run back and put a mark on the map to guess where Gu Xiaotian and the others had progressed.
Having reached the next point, Xu Ran turned around and returned to the tent. Suddenly his heart trembled, and a bad premonition emerged in his heart.
She immediately turned around and walked out of the door, looking at the mountain and frowning.
Seeing this, Hao Hao came over and asked, "What's wrong? Something happened?"
Xu Ran pressed his hands slightly, covered his heart, and said worriedly: "I don't know, I hope I am lying to myself." qs
But soon, Xu Ran no longer thought so.
The premonition in her heart became stronger and stronger, as if it was about to overflow.
Soon, the messenger confirmed her idea.
The soldier ran down the mountain, panting, and immediately reported: "Xingfeng has appeared!"
Xu Ran stood up immediately, a little panicked, but soon told himself in his heart that he should stay calm at this moment. He immediately sat down, biting his fingers habitually, and guessing what was going on on the mountain.
Naturally, the soldier couldn't get close. If he did, he might not have the chance to go down the mountain to deliver the message.
Hao Hao said anxiously at the side: "What are you thinking about at this time? Hurry up the mountain to save people!"
With that said, Hao Hao took action and immediately gathered a large number of people to prepare to go up the mountain.
Xu Ran suddenly figured out something and immediately stopped Hao Hao and said, "Don't go, there is a scam here."
Hao Hao said anxiously: "It's such a lie. Xing Feng showed up in such a big way, what kind of backup plan could he have left?"
Xu Ran nodded immediately and said, "That's it. All he has to do is show up in front of us."
At this time, Hao Hao didn't have the patience to listen to Xu Ran's analysis. He immediately pulled Xu Ran away from him and said angrily: "My junior brother is going to fucking die. If you don't save it, it will be a loss, but as a senior brother, I must go!" "
The morale of the military was already in chaos now. Many people believed in Xu Ran and began to hesitate.
Hao Hao turned around and shouted: "Those who have the guts to go up the mountain with me to save people, and those who don't have the guts to stay behind!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hao Hao shook his head.
The one who doesn't turn back is the first to go up the mountain.
Xu Ran's expression was a little solemn, but at this time she knew that she could not persuade Hao Hao and could only let him go. A small number of people finally chose to believe Xu Ran and stayed. Xu Ran also immediately set up defenses around the area. Prevent Xingfeng's next move.
However, an unexpected person slowly came from a distance at this moment.
Xu Ran immediately heightened his vigilance, walked to the front of the camp, looked at the people approaching, and frowned slightly.
The person who came was holding a long spear and was wearing armor.
In the dark night, the pace is very slow, but extremely determined.
There was another person following him, petite and exquisite, who was constantly waving.
It wasn't until he got closer that Xu Ran could see his face clearly.
It's Yukika!
The person next to her was naturally Xiao Yinyin, who had been treating her during this period. Although Xiao Yinyin didn't know Gu Xiaotian's plan, she knew it to some extent. Originally, she planned to come to Gu Xiaotian immediately after the treatment today. .
But there was one thing that surprised Xiao Yinyin.
After hearing this, Xingxiang actually wanted to come together.
Xiao Yinyin did not refuse and immediately brought Xingxiang.
Xingxiang held a long stick in her hand and said, "Sister Xu Ran, long time no see."
Xu Ran was a little suspicious and just asked: "What are you doing here?"
"Help us out."
Xu Ran pinched her eyebrows. Gu Xiaotian had never mentioned this before, and she didn't know about it either. She just knew that they had a companion named Xiao Yinyin, but she had never seen this little girl. At this moment, she couldn't tell the difference. clear.
Xiao Yinyin immediately announced her family name: "I am Xiao Yinyin! Gu Xiaotian should have said so!"
Xu Ran said awkwardly: "No."
Xiao Yinyin pouted, looking disappointed.
Not far away, the Detachment of Women also came from the dark night.
Xiaohu walked up to Xingxiang and whispered: "Boss, the sisters are all ready and ready to go at any time."
However, Xu Ran remained vigilant and immediately stopped Xingxiang and asked: "Rescuing people or killing people?"
When facing Xing's family, Xu Ran naturally has to be more careful.
If this is also part of Xingfeng's plan, wouldn't it completely push Gu Xiaotian into hell?
Xingxiang said: "Save people, save Gu Xiaotian."
Xu Ran said: "Why should I trust you?"
Yukika remained silent.
She didn't know how to explain this kind of problem. It seemed that no matter how she explained it, she didn't know what to say to make Xu Ran lower his guard against her.
At this time, Xiao Yinyin stood up, patted her chest and promised, "She is my friend! She will never harm us."
Xu Ran looked at Xiao Yinyin and frowned slightly. This explanation did not make sense at all.
A simple-minded little girl would never notice anything if she was cheated.
Hao Hao had already led a group of people up the mountain in front of him, and he didn't know what the situation was at this time. If another unstable factor was allowed to go up the mountain at this time, if something went wrong, it would probably be completely irreversible.
Suddenly, Yukiko coughed twice and covered her mouth with her hands. Then she just glanced at her palms and clenched her hands tightly.
Xiao Yinyin's face was full of worry, and he immediately took out the pill from his pocket and handed it to Xingxiang.
Xu Ran asked doubtfully: "Are you injured?"
Yukika was silent.
Xu Ran smiled instead, "You came to help even though you were injured. You said you wanted to save Gu Xiaotian, which seems even more unbelievable."
Xu Ran clapped his hands gently, and the group immediately surrounded Xingxiang and her army of girls, saying solemnly: "I will not let you go."
Xiao Yinyin was as anxious as an ant under a hot pot, and immediately chattered a lot, but saw that both Xingxiang and Xu Ran were indifferent.
Xiao Yinyin was frustrated. How could she make Xu Ran let down her guard?
Always remember, there will be reverberations.
A seductive voice sounded from behind.
"Let her go, I
Vouch for her. "
