Liu Ling stood up, took off his deerskin gloves and threw them on the ground. He turned around and ordered: "Xu Xuan, send someone to take care of the body of the Xixia Lord. Don't let anyone harm him again. Even if a generation of emperors is defeated, they will not be destroyed."
You can’t just bury yourself in the wilderness casually.”
Liu Ling shook his head sadly, pointed to the city gate and said: "Xiaoshu, take your people to look at the city gate. Maybe there is a code left by Xiao Chao. Then tell the people coming from the yard
Divide into several teams, and check carefully wherever there are corpses of Xixia soldiers in the city. The Iron Wolf is among the Xixia soldiers. Wei Mingxiao is dead. If the Iron Wolf did not go with Xiao Chao, he must still be in the city.
"
Liu Ling added: "Take food with you. If Iron Wolf is still in the city, if he can't eat human flesh, he may not be able to move around."
"Talking to oneself"
Liu Ling turned around and said to Xi Zizi who was standing behind him: "Follow me into the city and go to the Golden Tent to have a look."
"Let the army be stationed ten miles outside the city. There is no need to approach. Shengtu, the people with you should also withdraw. Tell the soldiers to wrap their mouths and noses with Gebu as much as possible. The corpse air here is too strong. If someone is infected with the plague,
Not many people in the army can return to Youzhou alive."
Liu Ling thought for a while and said, then he and thirty more black-clad supervisors entered Linhuang Mansion. When they walked into the south gate, the sand on the ground was all grey-brown. It was soaked in blood.
Color, and nothing else could be smelled in the air except the rotten smell. Occasionally, bold crows flew down from the sky and landed on a corpse, pecking away at the carrion on the corpse.
The guards of the Overwatch Council walking behind raised their hands, pulled the trigger, and used the refined repeating crossbows issued by the Overwatch Council to nail the nearest crows to the ground. The crows that were shot were still fluttering their wings, but they could no longer
It cannot fly. The chirping sound is very harsh and irritating.
Xi Ziyan, who was following Liu Ling, was wearing a black mask, with only a pair of beautiful eyes showing on her face. She turned around and glanced at the crow-shooting surveillance guard, and then said in a cold voice: "I'll give it to you in the yard.
Lian Nu is not for you to kill birds. The cost of making a crossbow arrow is fifteen copper coins, don’t you think it’s a pity?”
The supervisory guard's face turned red, and then he bowed and clasped his fists: "I know my mistake."
"Pick it back up, clean it, and put it back into the crossbow box."
Xi Ziyan said calmly.
"yes!"
The supervisory guard with a silver thread embroidered on his sleeves had obviously just been promoted to the silver robe and was walking beside the King of Han for the first time. He was really nervous. Xi Ziyan was accompanied by more than 30 supervisors.
Wei and Ju are both in silver clothes. As for the newly promoted silver clothes, only three people including him were promoted. It was the first time to see the King of Han at such a close distance. In fact, his nervous palms were sweating.
After hearing Xi Ziyan's order, he quickly ran over and pulled out the crossbow arrow stuck on the crow's body, and then took out a very clean handkerchief to wipe off the blood on the crossbow arrow.
"Remember, as the prince's guard at this time, your actions must be targeted. I don't know if you want to attract the prince's attention through this, or because you are nervous, but remember, if you take action rashly and cause the whole
There is a loophole in the guard formation, so you have to take off these clothes, along with your head."
A supervisory guard with three lines of silver embroidered on his sleeves whispered to him: "Your duty is to protect the prince. This is your only mission."
The newly promoted Yinyi's face turned redder, as if someone had seen through his thoughts. When he heard the last sentence, his expression returned to solemnity, and then he nodded: "Everything is for the King of Han."
"All for the King of Han!"
The four silver-clad supervisors walked in front to explore the way, with the black iron drill in their hands pointing to the ground. There was no doubt that if there was any sign of danger, their murderous weapons would immediately pierce it. The four-edged iron drill was very sharp and could be struck by
If the blood is stabbed, the blood will bleed and the person will die.
"Have you seen the Iron Wolf?"
Liu Ling asked.
"I met you once."
Xi said to himself and nodded: "The first day my subordinate entered the courtyard, he had a fight with the Iron Wolf."
"Who's winning?"
Although Liu Ling was asking, he seemed absent-minded.
"I."
A short word, but it reveals strong self-confidence.
Xi smiled to herself, her beautiful face obscured by a black mask: "In a fight, the Iron Wolf is no match for me. But if the two of us are placed on two desert islands without supplies at the same time, the one who survives will definitely be
he."
Xi said to himself: "Sometimes, the Iron Wolf is more like a savage. If he is still waiting for the prince in the city, if there is really no food, he will eat people."
Liu Ling nodded. He knew that the Iron Wolf would do that. If it were him, he would probably eat raw human flesh in order to survive. Sometimes things that seem extremely difficult may not be possible under certain circumstances.
It is difficult to do. Along the way north, there are many Khitan people who are still alive, who have exchanged their children for food. I don’t know whose child is being cooked in the broth served to me. I don’t know whose child it is.
, my child is boiled in whose iron pot.
The group of people walked around a street and walked forward to see a group of magnificent buildings in front of them. There was Daliao's Golden Tent and Yelu Xiongji's palace. The so-called Golden Tent was actually a building with a huge glazed dome.
It’s just that the shape looks more like a huge tent from a distance. This was once the political center of the Liao Kingdom, and I don’t know how many orders to invade other countries were issued from here. When Yelu Xiongji was still in Beijing,
The outside of this hall is always full of golden-armored warriors, and the courtesy that the golden-armed guards receive when they walk out of Linhuang Mansion is comparable to that of a general.
If this place looks like a sturdy, glorious and magnificent tent built of huge rocks, in Liu Ling's eyes, this place looks more like a temple. However, where the Buddha statue is placed, there should be a tower symbolizing the supreme power.
The Khitan people do not call that chair the dragon chair, but the Golden Tent Throne.
Entering the palace, you can walk along the widest stone road to the Golden Hall.
Only after entering the palace wall can you see that the so-called Golden Hall really looks like a temple. I don’t know how much manpower and material resources it took to polish just the eighteen one-meter-thick stone pillars in front of the hall. The main entrance of the hall
The two lifelike wolf sculptures outside looked like they could swallow up half the world in one bite. There were many discarded items scattered on the ground outside the palace. A beautifully crafted brocade quilt fell on the ground.
There are countless messy footprints on the ground.
When they walked outside the main hall, Xi Ziyan stepped forward and stopped in front of Liu Ling. She pointed at the main hall, and then a team of silver-clad supervisors came out to escort them alternately and entered the main hall to check.
Liu Ling slowly raised his head: "Go and take a look at the main hall, two of us."
The reason why he gave such an order was not because he thought of Nie She, but because he had a vague hunch when he entered the city. That is the highest place in Linhuang Mansion. Sitting there and looking out of the city, you can see the farthest.
.If a lonely person is waiting for his companion to arrive, looking into the distance from the highest place may be the only thing he can do every day.
Several people in silver clothes walked to the bottom of the hall. One person squatted down and clasped his hands tightly. Another person in silver clothes kicked on his hands and jumped up with the force of the upward throw. The hall was too high, even with such a jump
The silver-clothed supervisory guard who got up could not climb directly to the roof of the hall. He hooked his hand on a rafter and hung there. The second silver-clothed supervisor who was thrown up stepped on his hand and grabbed the first silver-clad supervisor in mid-air.
Yi's hand used the force to jump up to the roof.
Three men in silver clothes came up one after another, carrying ropes.
"it's here!"
Not long after, a shout of excitement floated down from the roof. Soon, two men in silver clothes appeared at the edge of the hall carrying a burly man. They tied the man with a rope and slowly lowered him down.
Liu Ling walked over quickly and squatted next to the burly body.
It's the Iron Wolf, the Iron Wolf who is unconscious.
The clothes on his body had obviously been changed, but there were blood stains seeping out from the brocade clothes. Liu Ling reached out and probed in front of Iron Wolf's nose, and then reached out to take the dagger Xi Ziyan handed him. First, he held Iron Wolf's nose out.
His clothes were cut open to reduce restraints on his body.
"water!"
Liu Ling's deep voice was hoarse.
After feeding him a few mouthfuls of water with his own hands, the Iron Wolf's lips began to move. His body was very hot, and there were wounds on his shoulders and chest and lower abdomen. They were treated briefly, but they had already begun to rot.
"I really don't know what Master Tie relied on to support him. When we found him, he was still holding a knife in his hand, and there were at least thirty or forty black-feathered beast corpses around him. He placed a copper stove next to him, but the fire
It’s been extinguished.”
The silver-clad supervisor who came down opened his mouth and swallowed hard: "These days, Master Tie must have survived by eating those crows alive."
"My home...is in the south of the Yangtze River...mountain...with beautiful mountains and clear waters."
Weak words came out of Iron Wolf's mouth, and his consciousness had become blurred. The wound was infected and he was running a fever. If he had been discovered at most half a day later, he would have turned into a corpse. The five medical officers accompanying him
Immediately stepped forward, took the iron wolf from Liu Ling's arms, first gave him medicine, and then treated the wound. The wound on the shoulder was very deep, and the bones were visible, but it was the lightest part. There was a strip of flesh and blood on the chest.
There was a hideous wound, and the turned flesh was already rotten white. There was also a hole in the lower abdomen, and the bandage was tightly wrapped. It should have been wrapped by the iron wolf himself.
"Make a stand and carry the Iron Wolf back to the camp."
Liu Ling's eyes were a little red, terribly red.
On the way back, Liu Ling remained silent. His silence was very uncomfortable, and the people walking around him were frightened by the power of silence. They rarely saw the prince's face look so bad, so pale.
.Xi Ziyan followed Liu Ling without saying a word, her beautiful fists clenched tightly, and her palms were sweaty.
"Can it be cured?"
After returning to the camp, Liu Ling asked the medical officer from the fifth branch.
The medical officer raised his head and wanted to say something, but did not open his mouth.
Liu Ling walked out of the camp and headed south.
My home is in the south of the Yangtze River, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. (To be continued)
