Chapter three hundred and twentieth eight peony flowers die
Gong Yueyue suddenly sighed softly: "Is it true that once a man falls in love with a woman, he will be so cautious and hesitant?"
"I don't know." Zhao Changyuan shook his head: "But to me, it is true."
"But Zhao Changyuan, have you ever thought about it, if we stay here any longer, our minds and bodies will slowly become sleepy. At that time, if the black shadow launches a fatal blow towards us..."
"What does that matter?" Zhao Changyuan smiled calmly: "So what if I launch a fatal blow? At least we can die together."
"You——" Gong Yueyue opened her eyes wide in shock and looked at him in disbelief.
"Duo'er." He leaned down and kissed her, with a slight smile in his eyes: "You have a saying in the Central Plains that you can die under the peony flowers, and you can be romantic even if you are a ghost. Don't you agree with this sentence now?"
"How long has it been and you still have the heart to joke?"
"I'm not joking." His expression became serious: "I'm just trying to show you my true feelings - I will not leave you, absolutely not."
"Okay." Gong Yueyue bit her lip: "Since you refuse to leave no matter what, then I will accompany you to break out, how about it?"
"Let's break out together?"
"Yes." She nodded heavily: "Let's break out together, Zhao Changyuan."
Looking at the man in front of her, Gong Yueyue suddenly grinned: "I believe in you and entrust my life to you - life, we live together, death, we die together!"
Just as the two of them were discussing a solution, a long whistling sound suddenly came from above their heads, and there were responses from all directions.
"I don't know what this black shadow is." I crossed my hands on my chest and said with deep eyebrows, "It actually has such great appeal."
Zhao Changyuan did not answer, but looked at her intently.
Gong Yueyue glanced at him strangely: "What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like this?"
"I find that you are completely different from usual."
"what is the difference?"
"I can't tell." He walked around her twice: "Ultimately, there are some differences between you and other women. You seem to rarely take the initiative to ask for help from the men around you."
Help?
A slight sneer appeared on Gong Yueyue's lips.
A very cold smile.
Perhaps in the past, she had been looking forward to getting help from some men, but she didn't know from which day she found that the men around her were all jerks - Shizong, Gaozong, and those who stood with weapons.
On the battlefield, men often run away. How can they have the courage of men? And why does she need their help?
"Duo'er." He called her: "What are you thinking about?"
"No." She waved her hand and sighed softly: "Actually, I have been thinking about how to rush out from here as quickly as possible to be safe."
"Safety?"
Zhao Changyuan was startled.
"Wait a minute." Gong Yueyue pushed him away gently, walked to the stone wall aside, put her hand on the stone wall, closed her eyes, and sniffed the air vigorously.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Changyuan looked at her strangely.
"Don't make any noise."
Gong Yueyue waved her hands, focusing on feeling the murderous intention hidden in the dark night, and then opened her eyes.
"What's wrong?"
"a lot of."
"Um?"
"We are surrounded."
Zhao Changyuan's eyes suddenly widened, very wide.
"We have lost the chance to break out." Gong Yueyue looked at Zhao Changyuan quietly and spoke every word very calmly.
"Then why don't you hide?" Zhao Changyuan looked at her strangely: "You don't cry or make trouble?"
"Because I'm with you, I'm not afraid of anything - Zhao Changyuan, tell me, is there anything else in this world that you can't let go of?"
Zhao Changyuan took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, and then turned to look at her: "I think it's gone."
His expression was very calm, but Gong Yueyue interpreted a deep loneliness and loneliness.
Her mind couldn't help but flash back to the first time she saw him - when she woke up from a coma, the first thing she saw was his handsome face that was completely different from that of the Black Yi people.
"So." Gong Yueyue's smile was like fireworks, blooming on her lips: "I have a solution."
"any solution?"
She stretched out her hand and pointed above her head.
Zhao Changyuan looked up, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "You mean?"
"Climb up." Her tone was extremely determined: "Climb to the top and light a fire there - I think at this time, your soldiers must be trying their best to find you. After they see the fireworks, no matter what they know,
If they don’t know the situation, they will come over to check it out, and in this way, we will be saved.”
"Duo'er." He ran over and hugged her: "Okay, my soldiers will arrive in about two hours."
"Yes." Gong Yueyue put her hands into her sleeves and hugged herself tightly. She just wanted to keep herself warm. Zhao Changyuan took off his outer robe and wrapped it around Gong Yueyue's body.
"What about you?" She glanced at him.
"It's okay, I'm thick-skinned, so it doesn't matter." He smiled.
"This time, if we get out of trouble, I will marry you immediately without making any excuses."
"Really?" Zhao Changyuan's eyes shone brightly, and he pulled her into his arms and kissed her heavily: "You know, this is the sweetest thing I have ever heard in my life. Just because of your words, I will die here.
It’s worth it.”
"How can I let you die? God will not let you die. We will live together well, and..."
As Gong Yueyue spoke, a few red clouds could not help but appear on her face.
"What else do you want?" He came over, his eyes full of smiles, and reached out to pinch her cheek: "Why don't you say anything? I'm listening."
"You are so bad, I will ignore you." She said lightly and turned away.
Zhao Changyuan did not joke with her, but lowered his head and looked at the ground carefully, as if looking for something.
"What's wrong?" Gong Yueyue looked at him strangely.
"Here -" He bent down, stabbed the soil under his feet with his spurs, and then dug out something.
"What is that?" Gong Yueyue was surprised.
Zhao Changyuan picked it up, brought it close to his eyes, looked at it carefully for a while, and shook his head: "I don't know. From the outside, it seems to be a stone box."
"Stone box?" Gong Yueyue couldn't help being surprised. You know, in this world, wooden boxes, iron boxes, and paper boxes are very common, but this stone box?
"Whatever." Zhao Changyuan put the stone box away: "We'll look at it when we get back."
"Drive, drive, drive." There was sudden movement outside the valley. Gong Yueyue's whole body was excited, and her back suddenly straightened up.
"They are here." Zhao Changyuan's expression also became solemn.
The sound of horse hooves suddenly stopped, and then there was a very subtle whooshing sound, and the sound of slashing. After a full hour passed, there was a faint light at the entrance of the valley, and someone walked in holding a torch.
"Your Highness!" The leader hurried to them and knelt down on his knees: "Your Highness was late, so Your Highness was frightened."
"That's not true." Zhao Changyuan said calmly: "On the other hand, have you seen clearly what those dark shadows are?"
Captain Ge Li did not answer immediately, but bowed slightly: "Your Highness, please come down with me."
Zhao Changyuan was startled for a moment, then followed Ge Li and walked forward, only to see huge "monsters" lurking in the grass.
"Bring a torch." The captain of the soldiers lit the torch. Zhao Changyuan held it in one hand and used the torch's light to illuminate the grass, seeing everything inside.
"Weird." Ge Li frowned slightly.
"What's wrong?"
"Judging from the appearance alone, this guy looks like a savage, but savages wouldn't be so big, and their hands--"
Gong Yueyue's eyes also fell on those hands, and she was surprised to find that although those hands had thick black hair, if she looked closely, they were actually human hands!
Zhao Changyuan handed the torch in his hand to Ge Li, then squatted down and gently brushed away the hair on the black figure with his fingers. Only then did he realize that what was hidden underneath was clearly the body of an adult man!
"It's a human being!" Ge Li also saw it and couldn't help but let out a low voice.
"It seems that this thing is really strange." Zhao Changyuan thought carefully for a moment: "Look around again."
"Everyone spread out and search everywhere." Ge Li immediately gave the order. All the soldiers scattered in all directions and searched carefully along the grass. Sure enough, they found many strange things - used kettles, bowls, bows and arrows, and axes.
, and even a pot.
"Your Highness."
A soldier came over holding a round stone plate: "Look."
Zhao Changyuan took the stone plate and took a closer look under the light of the torch. He saw a strange three-eyed unicorn painted in the middle of the stone plate.
"It's them!" A soldier next to him saw it clearly and could not help but exclaimed softly.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Changyuan turned to look at him: "Looking at your expression, it seems that you are very surprised. Is it possible that you know what is going on?"
"Little one, I also heard my father mention it before, saying that there are some disappeared tribes living in some jungles of the Black Yi tribe."
"The lost tribe?"
"Yes, more than a hundred years ago, they had their own tribal territory just like us. However, after repeated battles, they either lost their opponents and hid in the jungle, or -"
"What is that?" Zhao Changyuan stared at him. Unexpectedly, the soldier's face changed drastically and he refused to say any more.
"Chamu!" Ge Li shouted in a low voice: "Don't be so pretentious, tell me everything you know!"
"No." Cha Mu shook his hands wildly, his eyes full of fear.
"Chamu!" Ge Li was obviously very dissatisfied with his reaction and shouted loudly.
"You don't have to force him." Zhao Changyuan turned to look at Ge Li: "If he doesn't want to say it, there are reasons why he doesn't want to..."
Before he finished speaking, Chamu fell backwards with a "gudong" sound.
Ge Li was startled and hurried forward to check, only to find that Chamu's face was white as snow, and a trace of blood slowly flowed from the corner of his lips. He was actually dead.
At this time, the cold wind was blowing fiercely from all directions. Everyone in the crowd was covered in cold sweat and looked at each other in panic.
You know, each of them is a warrior who has experienced hundreds of battles, but they were also shocked by the strange scene in front of them.
"Your Highness." Ge Li took a step forward and said, "It is not convenient to stay here for a long time. Your Highness should go back quickly. The matters here will be dealt with tomorrow."
"That's fine." Zhao Changyuan nodded, turned around and took Gong Yueyue's hand: "Let's go."
The group of people held torches and walked carefully through the grass to the mouth of the valley.
What appeared before everyone's eyes was an unimaginable scene - the sand at Shansukou was littered with corpses.
"What, what is going on?" Ge Li had worked with the soldiers for a long time, and they regarded each other as brothers, so they did not expect to suffer such a misfortune.
"Everyone mount up!" Zhao Changyuan said decisively: "Leave this place quickly without any mistakes!"
After saying that, he jumped up in the air with Gong Yueyue in his arms, landed on the horse, and ran forward quickly. (To be continued)
