The number of frost giants far exceeded Xu Wei. Xu Yongshuang estimated that the number they could see alone would reach more than five hundred.
Not to mention that in the vast white snow in the distance of the valley, you can still vaguely see the frost giant approaching.
Of course, quantity is not an issue.
What makes Xu Yongshuang deeply afraid is that the frost giants who have climbed to the top of the mountain are getting stronger and stronger.
Although he can still deal with it now, when the king of frost giants appears, he is not sure whether he can fight against it.
He was already considering whether to give up this pass.
The mission of Linfeng Kingdom to guard Hutou Pass has nothing to do with him. He resisted the frost giants just because he despised such low-level creatures with low intelligence.
As for whether the Frost Giant would cause harm to the people of the Cold Wind Country after breaking through the Tiger Head Pass, he wouldn't even care.
"Father, I'm afraid this place cannot be defended."
While fighting, Xu Yongshuang shouted to Xu Wei on the opposite mountain peak.
Xu Wei has a stronger sense of glory for the Linfeng Kingdom, and he is absolutely unwilling to give up this gate that has been guarded for thousands of years.
Not for the common people, but for the glory of the royal family.
He gritted his teeth and said to Xu Yongshuang: "We can't give up. Hutou Pass is the greatest masterpiece of our Linfeng Kingdom. We must never give up."
"The attacking Frost Giants are getting stronger and stronger. Do you want us to be buried here with them?"
Xu Yongshuang snorted coldly, and ignored the frost giant who stepped on the top of the mountain. He flew to the opposite mountain peak, grabbed Xu Wei and left.
They didn't even notify the large group of carriages and horses staying at the Taniguchi stronghold. It wasn't because it was too late, but Xu Yongshuang didn't take the lives of those people seriously at all.
"No, if I give up Hutou Pass, I will be a sinner of the royal family!" Xu Wei shouted, but he could not break free from Xu Yongshuang's shackles and kept walking away.
Xu Yongshuang said solemnly: "Now is not the time to guard Hutou Pass. Returning to Hanjun City immediately and organizing all cities to defend the city is the right thing to do."
Xu Wei quickly calmed down and stopped struggling. He sighed deeply and said: "The honor of our ancestors guarding Hutou Pass is ruined here... Huh? Why did those Frost Giants retreat?"
Hearing this, Xu Yongshuang stopped and looked back at Hutou Pass in the distance in surprise.
Some frost giants had already climbed over the mountain, but for some unknown reason at this moment, they all climbed towards the mountain and then jumped into the valley.
Strangely enough, the Frost Giants were unable to climb from the inside of the Bingyun Mountains, but they could climb the outer mountain walls as if they were on flat ground and were extremely fast.
Seeing that the Frost Giants were retreating, Xu Yongshuang thought for a moment and immediately rushed to Hutou Pass. Looking from the top of the mountain into the distance, he saw hundreds of Frost Giants receding like a tide and disappearing into the vast white snow.
"What's going on?" Xu Yongshuang looked puzzled and said with a smile: "Could it be that they just came out to see the scenery?"
Xu Wei said seriously: "If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. We must strengthen the guard at Hutou Pass to prevent a dangerous situation like today from happening again. Maybe they originally planned to test today, but they didn't expect us to show up.
Here."
Xu Yongshuang didn't answer, he didn't care much about the affairs of Linfeng Country.
However, he still poured cold water on Xu Wei: "Without the formation masters setting up formations on the top of the mountain, no one can stop these frost giants. Even if you and I are stationed here all the time, it won't work."
Xu Wei thought deeply: "Then ask the formation master to take action and arrange a formation on the top of the peak. No matter what, we can't let the frost giant break through."
Xu Yongshuang smiled and said: "I'm afraid that the treasury of Linfeng Kingdom will be emptied again."
Xu Wei frowned and said displeased: "Yongshuang, you are the prince of Linfeng Kingdom, why do you talk like this?"
Xu Yongshuang did not answer, walked to the edge of the cliff, looked into the distance, and said: "Chen Yang thought he was right and jumped into the frost giant. He should have been trampled to pieces."
Xu Wei said: "He is a very arrogant person. He jumped down regardless of everything. This is asking for death. Moreover, he said that humans and frost giants can coexist peacefully. It is completely nonsense."
"Humans and Frost Giants coexist peacefully?" Xu Yongshuang laughed loudly and said: "There are Frost Giants in Frozen Castle, but they are just enslaved lower races and are not worthy of coexisting with Humans."
Xu Wei thought about it: "Now that Chen Yang is settled, you have to try your best to get close to Tao Xiaotong. This is your chance."
"Of course." Xu Yongshuang nodded, looking forward to becoming the son-in-law of the Tao family. Maybe he would be valued by his father-in-law and inherit the Tao family.
Xu Wei said: "You rush back now. Don't rush to tell Tao Xiaotong the news of Chen Yang's death. Just say that he went deep into the Bingyun Mountains to investigate. After all, they have a close relationship as brothers and sisters. If Tao Xiaotong is impulsive and goes directly into the Bingyun Mountains, it is very likely that
You can’t get out.”
Xu Yongshuang nodded, looked sideways at his father, and said, "What about you?"
Xu Wei looked at the corpses scattered all over the stronghold at Taniguchi, and said with a heavy expression: "I'll keep an eye on it here. You go and notify the Imperial Preceptor and ask him to lead his men to garrison."
Xu Yongshuang immediately set off back to Hanjun City, went straight to the Yun Villa to find He Yusheng, told He Yusheng the news, and then went to see Tao Xiaotong.
"Eldest brother?"
When she heard the knock on the door, Tao Xiaotong thought it was Chen Yang who had returned, but when she sensed the energy fluctuations, she knew it was not Chen Yang. She opened the door in disappointment and said to Xu Yongshuang outside: "Mr. Xu, is something wrong?"
Xu Yongshuang was a little unhappy when he heard Tao Xiaotong call him "elder brother", but when he thought that Chen Yang was dead, he laughed instead and said: "Xiaotong, Mr. Chen asked me to tell you that he entered the Bingyun Mountains to explore
, I won’t be back until some time later.”
Tao Xiaotong frowned and said, "Why didn't he tell me when he left?"
Xu Yongshuang smiled and said: "He also listened to his father's explanation and made a spur-of-the-moment decision to go to the Bingyun Mountains. Before he left, I also persuaded him, but he seemed to be very interested in new things and insisted on taking action.
.”
Tao Xiaotong did not become suspicious and asked, "Is the Bingyun Mountain Range dangerous?"
Xu Yongshuang said: "There are frost giants inside, but they are not many in number and not very strong. Brother Chen should be able to deal with them."
Hearing this, Tao Xiaotong felt relieved: "If it's a frost giant, it's safe."
"Really?" Xu Yongshuang smiled.
Tao Xiaotong said: "Elder brother understands the language of frost giants. If he encounters a frost giant, he probably won't fight."
"I see, no wonder he is so confident. As your senior brother, he is indeed extraordinary."
Xu Yongshuang praised, but he was already ridiculing Chen Yang in his heart. That stupid guy actually thought he could talk to the frost giant, but now he has turned into meat. It's really ridiculous.
