Long Chen and the Empress chased all the way north. It was dark. They chased for more than two hundred miles, but there was still no trace of the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl.
"Stop it."
The empress was exhausted and fell on the snow.
Long Chen also stopped and said: "It's too dark, and I don't know which direction they are running away from. Let's rest tonight and chase them tomorrow."
The wind and snow were blowing in front of me. The empress looked around and said, "How can I rest here?"
To rest on a windy and snowy day, you should at least have a tent or something.
Long Chen gathered his true energy and quickly condensed the snow into ice cubes like a ghost girl, and an igloo slowly took shape.
"come in."
Long Chen pulled the hesitant empress into the igloo, and then sealed the igloo with snow, leaving only a hole for ventilation.
If completely frozen, you will suffocate to death.
The cold wind is howling outside, but it is gradually getting warmer inside.
Long Chen took out a luminous pearl the size of an egg and sneaked it into the wall, illuminating the small space with a faint white light.
The empress wore flame-colored armor underneath, a mink velvet cloak outside, and a helmet with snow on it.
Long Chen took off his own helmet and put it away, then reached out to take off the empress's helmet. The empress leaned back slightly, trying to avoid Long Chen's hand.
"What are you afraid of? Afraid of my indecent assault?"
Long Chen found it funny. It was the first time he and the empress were in this wilderness. The two of them were hiding in a small igloo, just like a young couple.
"you dare!"
The empress slapped Long Chen's hand away and took off the helmet herself.
"Can you still do this?"
The space was very small. Long Chen and the Empress were next to each other. There was a cold wind outside, but inside it was like a warm little harbor. The atmosphere was very ambiguous.
The empress spoke deliberately to lighten the atmosphere a little.
"Ah? Well, it's not like I can control the wind and snow by eating the ice beads of the holy beast."
This is the credit of the holy beast. Without the ice beads, Long Chen could not control the ice and snow like the ghost girl and condense it into the shape of an igloo.
"Oh, that's how it is."
The empress turned to look at Ye Mingzhu, thinking about what to say but couldn't find a suitable topic.
Long Chen deliberately stared at the empress, His leg also deliberately touched the empress. The empress turned to look at Long Chen and asked, "What are you doing?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "This room is not big, just big enough for you to lie down. Would you like to take a nap, Your Majesty?"
The empress looked at the small igloo and said, "Sleep, that's all."
Long Chen chuckled and said, "It's more comfortable to sleep lying down."
The empress was hesitating in her heart. This was an opportunity that might not come again in the future.
But, my own identity.
"Isn't this how you deceived Lingyi in the first place?"
The empress thought of her daughter and suppressed the restlessness in her heart.
When they attacked the barbarian Yeluhong, there was a sudden snowstorm at night. Long Chen got into Emperor Lingyi's tent and slept together in their arms at night.
This routine seems very similar.
"I'm not lying. The wind and snow were so strong that night that Lingyi would get frostbite if she slept alone."
"For the sake of your safety, I sacrificed myself."
Long Chen denied it, everything was for the good of your daughter.
The empress slowly lay down and said, "Oh, how dare you do me a favor?"
Long Chen looked at the empress who was already lying down, feeling a little at a loss.
I thought the empress wouldn't cooperate, but I didn't expect to take the initiative to lie down.
"If your Majesty feels cold."
"are not you cold?"
Before Long Chen finished speaking, the empress closed her eyes and said something.
"It's a bit cold."
Long Chen looked at the seductive empress, took off the luminous pearl on the wall, and wrapped it with something. The igloo immediately became dark.
Long Chen slowly lay down to rest.
.
After Li Chengdao left Yanmen Pass, he immediately flew to the east. Wu Sheng and the ghost girl were nowhere to be seen. The ghost army was in chaos, and the Long family army was chasing them.
"A bunch of idiots!"
Li Chengdao secretly cried out that it was a pity that his dragon-slaying
The army was also defeated.
Before setting off, he told Feng Yang, Han Hu and Ma Chenglong that if the war went unfavorably, he would lead the Dragon Slayer Army to retreat immediately.
Unfortunately, fate is not as good as fate. When Li Chengdao left, Long Chen raided the barracks. Han Hu and Ma Chenglong were killed, Feng Yang disappeared, and the Dragon Slayer Army lost its general, and was commanded by the ghost general Yue Lang.
Yue Lang is the general of the ghost clan. Of course he doesn't care about the life or death of the Dragon Slayer Army. When the Long Family Army attacks, he first lets the Dragon Slayer Army rush forward. Most of the Dragon Slayer Army is killed, and the rest are left in ruins.
escape.
The situation was out of control, the morale of the army was shattered, and it was useless even if the gods came. Li Chengdao was too lazy to pay attention and turned around and headed north.
With the battlefield like this, Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl must have lost. Long Chen is not here and should be chasing them. This is an opportunity and he must seize it.
Li Chengdao felt a little happy. When the battle started, he used the Xuanwu Sword to kill Long Chen equally, which shows that his cultivation level is similar to Long Chen's.
And Long Chen defeated the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl one against two, which means that Li Chengdao could also defeat the Ghost Girl and the Martial Saint at the same time.
Thinking of this, Li Chengdao felt a little regretful. He felt that he was too cautious. His cultivation level had surpassed that of the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl. He could take action in advance and replace them in controlling the Ghost Clan.
If 140,000 ghost soldiers and 150,000 puppets were commanded by him, they would definitely be able to fight better. The martial saint's military ability is nothing more than this, and the ghost girl is even more mediocre.
Li Chengdao felt an unprecedented sense of confidence in his heart.
"Find them, devour them, replace them!"
Li Chengdao took a look at the chaotic battlefield, and took advantage of the dim darkness to run north quickly.
.
Northwest of the grassland.
During the battle at Yanmen Pass, Yu Wenkai, Yang Hu, Tan Wenyue, Gan Xin, and Mo Lin led 10,000 Long family troops and more than 1,000 Demonic Dragon camps to the northwest with difficulty.
After several battles in the Demon Dragon Camp, half of them were killed and only over 1,500 people remained.
A fierce cold wind blew from the northwest. The army marched against the wind and snow, and everyone was covered with a layer of snow.
"There are still five days' journey to the Black Forest."
< br> Yang Hu roughly estimated the distance, but Gan Xin shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's more than that. We are traveling too slowly. It is estimated that there are still eight days."
More than 10,000 troops behind them were walking forward one after another. The snow was so deep that they could reach the root of their thighs if they stepped in. They couldn't pull it out and walk. They all walked forward through the snow, and some even simply pulled it with their hands. The snow crawls forward.
"The snow is too heavy and it is difficult to walk."
Mo Lin stopped, grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth, then took out the dried meat placed next to him and chewed it slowly.
Yu Wenkai stopped and said: "It will be much better to go a few days further and reach the Hera Pass. The wind there is just strong and the snow is not as thick as here."
"It's getting dark soon. Everyone needs to rest on the spot and pitch the tents securely. Don't get buried."
The whole army was ordered to rest on the spot, and the tents were immediately set up. The camp took on a fan shape with the tip facing the northwest. This was done to protect against the wind and snow at night.
The big tent was set up, Yu Wenkai sat down, Yang Hu and Gan Xin lit their pipes and smoked happily.
Taking a puff of smoke into their lungs, the two of them smiled intoxicatedly, and the weak fireworks seemed to bring warmth.
"The wine is finished."
Yu Wenkai looked at the wine bag and saw that not a drop of the spirit was left in it.
Gan Xin said with a smile: "Old general, why don't you try this thing of mine? This thing is more energetic than drinking."
Yu Wenkai shook his head and said, "That thing of yours is very choking."
Yang Hu said: "General, this thing is uncomfortable at first, but you will enjoy it later as you get used to it."
Yu Wenkai still didn't want to smoke, so he chewed the dried meat out of boredom. The more he ate, the less flavorful it became.
"The blood of ghosts still smells like that. Eh? Where is that beast?"
The beasts Yu Wenkai talks about are holy beasts.
Along the way, the holy beast has been walking in front. It is a spiritual beast of the ice field and is not afraid of wind and snow at all.
Sometimes when Yu Wenkai walks slowly, the holy beast will stop and wait. After catching up, the holy beast starts walking forward again.
Mo Lin thought that Yu Wenkai was interested in the holy beast again, so he persuaded him: "Old general, you promise not to eat the holy beast."
