Chapter 97: Desertion

Outside Darong Pass, there is Huangsha Gobi.

All the old, weak, women and children in Kuiling Village slowly moved towards the east. At this moment, the village they once had had been left behind. In an endless stretch of gravel, their decades of remoteness and forbearance were condensed. It was like this in the past.

, created the contradictory character of the old and young in this village who are both resigned to the situation and looking forward to relief. At this moment, this team of hundreds of people is walking slowly, facing the scorching afternoon sun, towards their expectations in the distance.

Wuyangchuan.

That was the meeting place agreed upon by Huang Zhenheng and the Yunzhou General Mansion, and it was also the place where Kuiling Village would settle down in the future. For such a brand-new name, and a future that they had never expected, the whole village was filled with joy and uneasiness, and they looked up.

, there is still a vast expanse of vast sea of ​​sand and wind in front of them, and no one knows what the new home promised by Yunzhou General Mansion will look like.

In the past ten years, the Wei Empire has been plagued by external banditry and internal disputes between foreign relatives and eunuchs. As the country's government has become increasingly stable, it has finally turned its attention to this vast national border that stretches thousands of miles.

Darong Pass has been standing in the northwest to resist foreigners for thousands of years, but it has long been overwhelmed. The city is deserted and the passes are crumbling. It can no longer serve as an important border town. Moreover, the Beihuan tribe in the northwest is gradually becoming unified. In a few years, plundering

The borders were burned and killed, and thousands of people were taken captive to the desert as slaves. This also made it particularly important to rebuild the northwest border defense line.

The Xiao family in Yunzhou was originally a local aristocratic family. By the time of Xiao Surong's generation, its reputation was unprecedentedly high. He held the position of General Zhenxi and was in charge of the entire northwest military. This man was well-read and remembered, and had a strong and profound mind. When he took office

, the border crossings are invaded by bandits and foreigners, the passes are empty, and the armaments are depleted. The people have long been accustomed to being displaced. One day they join the bandits, the next they rely on the government, and they are tossed around with no one to rely on, and most of them are waiting to die.

After Xiao Surong took office, he rebuilt Lulong Pass and established a large-scale military garrison for water conservancy. In just three years, thousands of hectares of fertile land were restored. He also led the army to capture the line from Qinyang to Tanyou, prepared military defenses, trained soldiers, and established a world.

The "Youyun Defense Line", which is famous for intimidating Mobei, has been like a strong shield blocking the northwest border for decades. The Beihuan tribe attacked many times, but was defeated by Xiao Surong's army. In the past ten years, they were buried in the clouds.

There were two Beihuan kings under the city. King Zuo Xian lost three, and King Youxian lost one. This was a defeat that the Beihuan people had not experienced in decades. However, at this moment, the reputation of the Xiao family's army had already faded.

Shocked Yu Nei, Mobei was timid. Although he hated it in his heart, he had no other choice. If he wanted to enter the pass again and plunder, he had no choice but to sneak into the already abandoned Darong Pass.

Because of this, Xiao Surong sent many troops to search and contact the desert many times, and brought back all the people of the Wei Dynasty who were scattered among the yellow sand within the scope of Lulong Pass. Over the past few years, more than 10,000 people have been rescued.

Kuiling Village of the same clan is located no less than a hundred miles outside Darong Pass and was the last village to be evacuated.

At this moment, Xu Huanchen stepped onto the horse, still thinking about the words Mo Zhi left before leaving.

I'm the bait.

"The young master has known for a long time that if the trip is to take place at this time, if Kuiling Village wants to escape unscathed, there is absolutely no chance of success easily. What he wants is to risk his life, throw himself into the tiger's body, and contain Zhang Xianzong.

and Shu Yu."

When Xu Huanchen heard Sun Qingyan's words, he hadn't spoken for a long time. He had practiced Taoism since he was a child, and all he heard and heard were words related to justice and loyalty in the world. But at that time, he faced the bloody crow and Zhang Shu with their strong military strength.

The determination to sacrifice himself in an instant to fulfill the lives of others, he thought to himself, was definitely not as pure as Mo Zhi's.

Sun Qingyan was walking beside Xu Huanchen. Seeing the young man's dull face and confusion in his eyes, he could only sigh and said: "Although the Shaodong family is born to be unruly and unrestrained, sometimes he is quite arrogant, but since Wuxiu Town, he has

It's different from before. I can't explain the changes in him, but the choice he made just now is something that even you and I wouldn't dare to make rashly. I think he saw his homeland destroyed by the Blood Crow with his own eyes.

Jedi, so no matter what, I don’t want anyone else’s relatives in my hometown to suffer this disaster again.”

Xu Huanchen closed his eyes, and there was a burst of regret on his face. At this moment, he wished that Mo Zhi had never come to the sect, and he had never gone down the mountain to the northwest. If it were just this life, the blue lanterns, the wind in the pines, and the vast sea

Reading ancient books in the pavilion, what he was thinking about was the world in his mind, and he felt relaxed and at ease. What he saw now when he came down the mountain, right and wrong, right and wrong, right and wrong, had long been blurred, making him unable to tell what he should continue to believe. If

According to what he knew and learned when he went down the mountain, he was currently in the same company with the evil star of the evil way. He had already violated the sect's rules and precepts. Even if his martial arts were ruined by the sect, it would not be an exaggeration.

He couldn't help but embark on the path in front of him.

If you follow the rules of the sect, you must not associate with the devil. But if I take action against him now, wouldn't the lives of these hundreds of people be at risk?

But if this is the case, is it because the sect rules are wrong? If the sect rules are wrong, then what exactly is right?

What exactly is the right path?

If he were here, what would he think and what would he do?

Xu Huanchen's mind was filled with confusion. For him, who had been a genius in the sect since childhood, these thoughts were difficult to understand. They were very different from his previous understanding of martial arts moves. However, there is a limit to the understanding of martial arts. But

The thoughts brought about by both good and evil are like being immersed in a tide, being watered by the waves. The wooden stick he has been holding in his hand seems so fragile at this moment, and as the waves hit his body layer by layer,

It felt like the whole body was about to be knocked down.

He was thinking deeply when suddenly a scream broke his meditation.

"Bei... Beihuan people are coming!"

Everyone looked up and saw dust rising all over the sky in the northwest. A group of Beihuan cavalry rushed out from the smoke. Xu Huanchen turned to look at the Beihuan officer who was tied to the donkey cart. That man's face

I felt proud for a while and said stiffly: "If you don't let me go... I'm going to die!"

At this moment, women, children, old and young were walking very slowly, supporting each other, and that group of cavalry was at least two hundred men. If placed in the northwest where there are many battles, the strength of the two hundred men is really not worth mentioning, but at this moment

For the advancing Kuiling Village, it was a huge disaster. Xu Huanchen shouted to Huang Zhenheng: "How long is it from Wuyangchuan?"

Huang Zhenheng looked at the road ahead, his expression extremely nervous: "We will be here in a moment. You two promised me that you will stop the Beihuan people."

What a joke.

Xu Huanchen looked at the black whirlwind-like cavalry, knowing that he and Sun Qingyan were the only ones here. Even if several elders of Yu Xuanzong were present at this moment, how could they compete with hundreds of foreign warriors with their mortal bodies?

Confrontation?

He was thinking and hesitating, when suddenly a green shadow flashed in front of his eyes. Sun Qingyan was already flying up, riding a fierce horse alone, the iron caltrops were shining, and he rushed straight towards the Beihuan cavalry formation.

The devilish evil star is actually more determined than me.

Sun Qingyan shouted loudly, his robe sleeves flew out, and the green light around his body was dazzling. Countless iron caltrops shot out like locusts. At that time, Qingchen, the evil star of the evil way, was unparalleled in the world with his star-picking skills. In the blink of an eye, he could

Launching hundreds of iron caltrops towards the battlefield, looking from a distance, it was like picking up the stars in the sky and turning them into weapons and throwing them out. Xu Huanchen had seen Sun Qingyan shoot with a hidden weapon before, and at that time he only knew that he was as powerful as

Ruo Huan could send and receive freely, and his precision was far better than Mo Zhi's. But at this moment, he saw him riding a horse forward in a flash of blue light. Only then could he see that this man's concealed weapon skills were said to be the best in the world, but no one would refute him.

But I saw the iron caltrops were covered with cold weather and shimmering, falling like rain on the Beihuan army formation. The Beihuan cavalry had been proficient in riding and shooting for many years. Now they wanted to pursue the group of people from Kuiling Village, but they did not even carry shields.

At this moment, all I could see were stars in the sky, mottled with a bit of green light. The Beihuan people were so rough, and they continued to charge forward without thinking. Suddenly, they were suddenly howling miserably. In an instant, there were twenty or thirty people there, all of whom didn't know why.

Falling off the horse.

The two centurions were shocked when they saw this, and ordered the front army to stop. However, although the army stopped, how could Tieling stop it? They heard a loud "swish" sound beside them, and there were ten more soldiers.

Several people fell to the ground and died. The two of them looked around and saw that everyone in Kuiling Village was already in front of them. They were like cattle and sheep in a plate. However, the azure figure rushing out from the ranks was always flashing iron weapons.

Guanghui, that person was the one who used the hidden weapons that came and went around him. He was so angry that he shouted loudly and wanted the whole army to rush over.

When Sun Qingyan saw the Beihuan people reorganizing their formation and charging back, he sneered and said: "The white slaves from outside the territory are really not afraid of life and death. I can only admire them for their integrity. It's a pity that you and I have different positions. Otherwise, we might get together to drink.

We have quite a lot to talk about, and today I want you to see my other hidden weapon skills!"

After saying that, with his arms ready, five or six black iron galls flew out from the sleeves of his robe. This iron gall is heavier than the iron caltrop. It is polished from fine iron and carved into the shape of skulls. The Beihuan people themselves

Several cavalrymen had already rushed forward. Suddenly, black skeletons with huge mouths came flying towards them in mid-air. They couldn't help but exclaimed. They drew their swords and struck at the iron gallbladder. However, the swords struck the wind, and they saw

The skeleton iron gall was subjected to external force, and its long mouth suddenly opened its teeth, spitting out bursts of purple smoke. The smell was extremely choking, and even the eyes were choked and it was difficult to open them.

The people of Beihuan have always believed in speaking directly to the soul. Just now they saw the skeletons flying towards them, and they felt frightened. They thought Sun Qingyan had summoned some dead soul in the desert. When he saw the skulls emitting bursts of black smoke,

His mouth and nose were all stung, and he even screamed loudly for monsters. The dozen or so people at the front reined in their horses and turned around, and the momentum came to a halt.

Sun Qingyan rode alone and contained the offensive of a group of Beihuan cavalry. Although it was a flash of light and flint, his cultivation was really evident. Xu Huanchen saw it from a distance and couldn't help but cheer loudly. Yu Xuanzong has been doing this for many years

He regarded concealed weapons as a side sect and never allowed his disciples to practice them. But today, when he practiced concealed weapons to the extreme, he could save people's lives. One could fight a hundred. Xu Huanchen suddenly had doubts about the sect's rules. After applauding, he became doubtful.

"Little master, it's very dangerous to be in a daze here by yourself!"

Xu Huanchen heard a soft call beside his ear, and the hair all over his body suddenly stood on end. Without thinking, he turned around and struck with his palm. Sure enough, he saw a red figure leaping sideways, and it turned out to be Wang Wuya, one of the remaining young men of the Five Elements Sect.

With a smile on his face, he raised his left hand. Xu Huanchen felt a tug on his neck. It turned out that his Bailian Dao had been tied around his neck at some point. Wang Wuya screamed strangely: "Get down!"
