When Xu Yun heard this, he hurried forward.

When he got closer, he found a barbarian soldier with one arm and one leg broken.

And Lin Yuexi, who was standing not far from the barbarian soldiers with a nervous look on his face.

"How's it going? Are you okay?"

Xu Yun looked Lin Yuexi up and down and asked.

"I'm fine, what should he do?"

Lin Yuexi pointed at the barbarian soldiers and asked.

Seeing that Lin Yuexi was fine, Xu Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the barbarian soldier, grinned and said, "Isn't this a ready-made military achievement!"

With that said, Xu Yun went to find some vines, made a simple stretcher, and then placed the barbarian soldier on the stretcher.

He pulled the stretcher, dragged the barbarian soldiers, and walked forward with Lin Yuexi.

Not long after walking, Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi saw a person.

This person is none other than Wang Ting.

"Wang Ting!"

Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi were overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward.

But Wang Ting remained motionless.

Xu Yun reached out to check Wang Ting's breathing, but found that Wang Ting was no longer breathing.

He shook his head slightly at Lin Yuexi.

Lin Yuexi's pretty face, which was already pale, turned pale again, and her face was as white as paper.

This is the battlefield!

Originally, when they first joined the army and became a soldier, they were quite excited.

But at this moment, their hearts felt a little heavy.

During a mission, three of his former comrades died in a group of five.

Even Yuan Lu, the team leader of the cultivators, died.

Moreover, if they had not been lucky enough to encounter a steppe wild wolf and jump into the river, they would have died in the hands of the barbarians.

This is war!

It is definitely not a lie to say that one general's success will lead to thousands of bones drying up.

Only by experiencing it personally can you know how cruel war is!

Xu Yun sighed, dug a hole, buried Wang Ting, and continued on his way with Lin Yuexi.

Along the way, they walked very vigilantly, for fear of encountering barbarian soldiers or prairie wolves again.

After a while, they came to the upper reaches.

At this time, the upper reaches of the river bank was in a mess, with broken limbs and arms everywhere, blood dyed the grass red, and the air was full of the smell of blood.

Even the river water is reddish.

The bodies of Wu Commander Yuan Lu and Sun Huaiyi were also missing. They were probably eaten by wild wolves.

This scene greatly stimulated the nerves of Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi.

"Commander Wu, Lao Sun, let's go!"

Xu Yun straightened his body and performed the military salute of the Zhou Dynasty.

Lin Yuexi also saluted.

Afterwards, the two of them rushed towards Dingbian Town.

On the way, they found the war horses.

The two of them worked together to tie the barbarian to a group of war horses. Then they each rode a war horse and ran towards Dingbian City.

Along the way, they didn't dare to stop for fear that the barbarians would catch up.

Fortunately, there were no near misses along the way.

When it was dark, they finally arrived at Dingbian City.

Shi Chang had been waiting on the city wall for a long time. When he saw Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi, he hurriedly got off the city wall and met them.

When the director saw that there were only Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi, he couldn't help but trembled fiercely and asked, "Where are Lao Yuan and the others?"

Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi dismounted. Xu Yun looked at Chief Zhang Wu and said bitterly: "Commander, Old Sun and Old Wang have both died for their country..."

The corners of Zhang Wu's eyes trembled fiercely, with tears welling up in his eyes. He turned away so that Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi wouldn't see him, patted Xu Yun on the shoulder and said, "Just come back, just come back." good……"

They were all comrades in the army and had experienced life and death together.

Yuan Lu didn't come back, so he was naturally sad.

Some soldiers came forward and took the barbarian soldier away.

Commander Zhang Wu looked at the two of them and said: "Tomorrow, you will receive poor military service, so you should take a rest for a few days!"

"Thank you so much!"

Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi bowed their hands to Zhang Wu.

On the second day, the two of them received poor military merit, and each of them made a ninth-class meritorious service.

After receiving the military merit, you can go to the Military Merit Pavilion to exchange for various rewards.

For example, exercises, martial arts, money, and even titles.

After leaving the military camp, Xu Yun looked at Lin Yuexi and said, "Lin Yuexi, are you busy tomorrow?"

"Oh, I probably have to go sell tofu with my dad tomorrow!"

Lin Yuexi whispered.

Lin Yuexi's father makes a living by selling tofu.

Xu Yun was speechless for a while and said: "Tomorrow, let's go to a restaurant to get together and say farewell to the corps commander and the others!"

"good!"

Lin Yuexi nodded.

Xu Yun tried his best to squeeze out a smile and said, "See you there tomorrow!"

After waving, the two of them left.

After Xu Yun returned home, he still felt a little heavy.

"No, I want strength, strength..."

Lying on the bed, tossing and turning, Xu Yun gritted his teeth and said.

"Tomorrow I will go to the Military Merit Pavilion to exchange for skills. I want to practice and become a warrior..."

Xu Yun opened his eyes and murmured.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Xu Yun thought of something and sat up from the bed.

He suddenly remembered that in his previous life, there was a rogue named Sun Hu in the city who picked up a secret book in the suburbs.

Then, within a few days, Sun Hu became a warrior, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and he became a master.

Later, the seducer from Disha Palace came after him, killed Sun Hu, and took back the skill.

But it turns out that Sun Hu picked up the palace-suppressing treasure of Disha Palace, so his strength increased greatly in a short period of time.

But this guy didn't know how to restrain himself and was a high-profile person. In the end, the people from the Disha Palace discovered the clues, killed Sun Hu, and recovered the treasure of the Disha Palace.

At that time, the incident was widely circulated in Dingbian City, and was even compiled by a storyteller in Goulan. It became a topic of conversation among people after dinner.

"Give it a try!"

Xu Yun made up his mind.

He had only achieved a ninth-level military merit. Even if he went to the Military Merit Pavilion to exchange for a skill, it would be the most rubbish skill in the army, and his future achievements would be limited.

It's better to give it a try. If you can get the palace-suppressing technique of the Disha Palace, your future will be limitless.

Thinking of this, Xu Yun suddenly had an idea.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was a dynasty in the Central Plains and was known as the First Dynasty.

In addition, there are also rumors of "the Second Palace of Heaven and Earth, the Three Sects of Taoism, the Four Temples of Buddhism, the Five Swords and Six Gangs..." and other major rivers and lakes forces.

The Disha Palace is one of the two palaces of heaven and earth, and is one of the top forces in the world.

If one can obtain the Divine Code of Palace-Suppressing Techniques from Disha Palace, one will surely be able to advance by leaps and bounds, and his achievements in the future will be limitless.

Only then can he better protect the people he wants to protect, and only then can he go further.

In the past few days, when he had nothing to do, Xu Yun planned to keep an eye on Sun Hu, making sure to get the palace-suppressing technique of Disha Palace.

During the day, when he had nothing to do, Xu Yun secretly kept an eye on Sun Hu.

At noon, Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi got together in the restaurant.

The two of them ordered a table of food, but they ordered five pairs of chopsticks and five bowls.

After filling the glasses with wine, he toasted Yuan Lu and the others.

Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi clinked glasses and drank.

After a few glasses of strong wine, the accumulated depression on the battlefield burst out at this moment.

Xu Yun slapped the table and shouted: "When you are born in troubled times, it is pitiful for a scholar to be a scholar. He can only moan for no reason, but it has no effect. When a man is alive, he would rather be a soldier than a scholar!"

"Yes, Brother Xu is right, useless is a scholar!"

Lin Yuexi, disguised as a man, also shouted with a red face.

The diners around him nodded.

In these troubled times, scholars can only recite poems and compose poems, and complain without any illness. The last word is to have a big fist.

But you won’t feel anything like it in major cities such as Beijing.

But in the small border towns, the people felt this deeply.

After Xu Yun and Lin Yuexi finished drinking, Xu Yun supported Lin Yuexi and led Lin Yuexi out of the restaurant.

"Why is this guy so bad at drinking? How can he be drunk at such a young age?"

Xu Yun was also speechless.

He carried Lin Yuexi on his back and was about to take her home.

However, when he left the hotel, he found that he did not know where Lin Yuexi's home was.

Helpless, Xu Yun had no choice but to carry Lin Yuexi on his back and walk to his home...
