Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi stood at the pass, looking north.
Long Chen and the Empress had been gone for a long time, and there was no news at all. They were very worried.
"I wonder how my mother and the others are doing." .??.
Di Luoxi waved her palms irritably, sweeping the snow off the wall stacks.
Emperor Lingyi was also very worried. There was no post station outside the customs, so the news could not be sent back like before. No one knew about Long Chen's condition.
Once entering the ice field, it is like a mud cow entering the sea, and there is no news at all.
"When the dead eunuch comes back, I will castrate him!"
Suddenly, Di Luoxi cursed angrily.
Emperor Lingyi agreed: "Yes, it should be beaten!"
Di Luoxi corrected Di Lingyi's statement and emphasized again: "It's not the time to beat, it's the time to castrate! Shi Jingxiang actually brought this dead eunuch!"
The paper could not contain the fire, the news that Shi Jingxiang arrived at Yanmen Pass and became the leader of the barbarians spread to Di Luoxi's ears.
After the two sisters learned about it, they were furious. If Long Chen were at Yanmen Pass, there would definitely be a fierce battle.
Di Lingyi said calmly: "If you castrate him, you won't be able to play with him."
Outside the pass, a group of people slowly approached the pass. The sentry on the tower immediately shouted: "Someone is approaching the pass!"
When Di Luoxi heard this, she immediately flew up to the tower, took out her telescope and looked outside the pass.
In the camera, Di Luoxi saw Ziyun, Miaoyin, and Mo Lin pulling a stretcher back.
"problem occurs!"
Di Luoxi shouted, and Di Lingyi had already flown out of the pass. Di Luoxi also flew down from the tower and ran towards the outside of the pass.
The general on duty was Wu Chuchu. When she saw the two princesses running out, she immediately ordered a thousand soldiers and horses to leave.
Emperor Lingyi rushed outside the pass, and Ziyun and the others also saw the two sisters.
"Where's the Queen Mother? Where's Long Chen?"
Emperor Lingyi rushed forward and saw Gan Xin lying on a stretcher. The injury on his neck looked very serious. He immediately asked the empress and Long Chen how they were doing.
Di Luoxi followed He arrived later, saw Gan Xin's injury, and immediately asked Master Ziyun: "Auntie, where are the Queen Mother and Long Chen?"
They were most afraid that Long Chen and the Empress would die in battle to protect them.
This is the worst case scenario.
Master Ziyun said: "Princess, don't worry, we encountered an attack in the ice field. Gan Xin and Miao Yin were injured. In order not to drag the Holy One down, we came back first."
"The Holy Emperor and King Wu must be fine. Their cultivation is high, so they must be fine."
Master Ziyun didn't know whether something was wrong or not. She said this to comfort the two princesses.
Di Luoxi asked: "Where did you separate?"
Mo Lin said: "We separated not far from the snow-capped mountains. Li Chengdao led people to ambush there. We repelled Li Chengdao's ambush, but at night Guitai sent a fierce assassin who could summon wolves. Gan Xin was seriously injured.
, Miaoyin was also injured."
"Princess, don't worry. Both the Holy Lord and King Wu are fine. The assassin is very strange, but his cultivation is average. He can't hurt the Holy Lord and King Wu."
Mo Lin was also comforting the two princesses, but also out of shame.
The four of them originally went to help, but turned out to be a burden and returned to Yanmen Pass first.
Master Ziyun said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty will be protected by King Wu, nothing will happen to you."
Wu Chuchu rushed over with his troops and was shocked when he saw the seriously injured Gan Xin.
After asking Long Chen and the Empress if they were okay, Wu Chuchu felt more at ease.
"Princess, please go back to the customs first. Gan Xin's injury is very serious."
Wu Chuchu was relatively calm, and Master Ziyun also said: "Go back first, Your Majesty will be fine."
Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi looked to the northwest and walked back helplessly.
After returning to Yanmen Pass, Gan Xin was hung up at the pass and immediately sent back to the room for treatment.
Di Luoxi stood at the pass, feeling very irritable and restless.
"I want to go out and look for my mother."
Di Luoxi stood up, and Di Lingyi said: "No, our mission is to guard Yanmen Pass, and we are not allowed to leave without permission!"
Di Luoxi walked around anxiously and said: "But Gan Xin was injured like that because he just encountered an assassin. The ghost fetus obviously has a back-up plan. The queen mother and the dead eunuch are definitely in danger."
Emperor Lingyi advised: "You know that the ghost fetus has a back-up plan, so you should guard the pass and not run around!"
"If we lose the pass, the queen mother will be blocked outside the pass."
Di Luoxi was very upset. She also knew that she could not leave seclusion, but she was very upset.
"I'm going to train!"
Di Luoxi couldn't bear it anymore and went out to the barracks.
Gan Xin was seriously injured and returned to the city, but the empress and Long Chen were nowhere to be seen. People who knew the news were talking privately, saying that the empress and Long Chen died in battle outside the pass.
Long Chen and the Empress were the backbone of the army. Since the two of them didn't come back, rumors started immediately, with all kinds of versions.
Some people even dared to say that they had received the exact news that the Empress and Long Chen had been killed in the battle, and that the ghost tribe was about to counterattack.
Rumors quickly spread within the customs. For a time, rumors were everywhere and the morale of the army was turbulent.
.
Two days later.
Long Chen and the empress appeared outside the pass. Dugu Jiali, who was on duty, saw them and shouted happily: "The Holy King Wu is back!"
The soldiers behind the closed door saw it and shouted excitedly.
Emperor Lingyi heard the sound and immediately went to the pass. When he saw the empress, Long Chen, he happily jumped out of the pass and rushed over.
The emperor's order flew over the snow and threw itself into the empress's arms.
"Mother, are you okay?"
Di Lingyi was very excited. It was very dangerous to leave the customs this time. Di Lingyi hardly had a peaceful sleep.
Emperor Lingyi was very excited to see the empress return safely. After seeing her daughter, the empress felt much better.
"How could something happen to me? It's just a ghost."
Long Chen was also very moved when he saw the affectionate expressions of mother and daughter.
Although he failed to rescue Emperor Ling and Long Teng after leaving the border this time, he finally came back safely without any danger.
Dugu Jiali led her troops out of the pass to greet him, and saluted in unison: "Welcome the Holy One back to the pass!"
There have been too many rumors in the past two days, saying that the empress and Long Chen died in battle, which made people panic.
Seeing the empress return safely, Dugu Jiali felt her heart drop.
"Let's go back."
The empress held Di Lingyi's hand and walked back, with Long Chen following behind. Dugu Jiali came over and asked, "You didn't encounter any danger, did you?"
Long Chen shook his head and said: "It was a near miss, but the person was not rescued, so it was a wasted trip."
"Have Ganxin and the others come back?"
Only Gan Xin was seriously injured this time, and Long Chen was worried that something would happen to him.
Dugu Jiali said: "Recuperate in the ward with Mo Lin watching over you. There shouldn't be any danger to your life, but the situation is not too good either."
The injury to the neck is too serious and will definitely not heal in a while. It is not expected that the situation will be bad.
As long as you don't die, everything is fine.
"That's good, there will be a way to cure it."
Long Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Dugu Jiali said: "You and the Lord came back late for two days and heard all kinds of rumors. It was said that you died in battle outside the customs, and that you were captured by ghost fetuses."
"Some people even say that you have met the Martial Saint and have taken refuge with the ghost tribe, so you will lead the ghost tribe to counterattack Yanmen Pass."
Long Chen sighed and said with a smile: "The more critical the moment, the more human nature is tested. There are a lot of losers in the pass, especially those in the martial arts world."
As the saying goes, the strong wind knows how strong the grass is, and when the cold comes, it will wither.
Very few people can persevere in critical moments, and capitulationists have been the mainstream since ancient times.
