A dead leaf floated by and landed on the broken tiles under the eaves, making autumn even more desolate. There were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street, and the vendors setting up stalls were nowhere to be seen.

From a distance, a group of patrol soldiers from the city defense battalion came over, with serious expressions and eyes constantly looking around.

On the quiet street, Bai Xi stood alone on the street, attracting the attention of the patrol team.

"Go home early! Don't go out at night if you don't have anything necessary." The team leader stepped forward and reminded.

After saying that, the team continued to patrol forward.

Bai Xi turned around and walked towards the General's Mansion. After walking for a while, another patrol came out from another crossing street.

This caught Bai Xi's attention.

Luoyang City is under martial law. There were not so many patrols in the past two days. Is it because too many people have died recently that the government has taken it seriously?

"Little girl, go home quickly and don't linger on the street." The patrol member reminded.

Bai Xi went back to the general's mansion without further delay.

——

Under the dark starry sky, in the dense forest outside the pass, a group of shadows walked through the darkness, their bodies rubbing against the branches and leaves, making rustling sounds.

They quietly approached the tall pass ahead and stopped on the low slopes on both sides of the official road outside the pass.

At this time, the gate of the pass was closed, and the soldiers guarding the pass stood on the city wall, paying attention to the movements around them.

In the silent darkness, all movements were clearly visible, and the subtle noise coming from the wind attracted the soldiers' attention.

"Go and rest! I'll guard you." The guard guard behind him yawned and shuffled slowly over.

"Captain, please pay attention to that side of the woods. I think there is something wrong with the wind noise tonight, and there are some unusual subtle noises." The team member handed over.

"Okay! I understand."

The veteran waved his hand, took up the position of the team member, and said nonchalantly: "Our pass is high and big, and the city wall is ten feet thick. Barbarians can't rush in."

The young soldier swallowed his words before turning around and walking down the tower. He, a small soldier, was not qualified to point fingers at his superiors.

As soon as the team member walked downstairs, suddenly the veteran shouted from behind, "Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

Immediately afterwards, a huge gong sounded from the tower, and the entire pass started to move in a very short period of time.

After a while, a huge bonfire was lit on the city tower. As soon as the beacon fire was lit, the entire Luoyang City barracks started to move.

War breaks out!

——

On the fifth day of the game, the survival rate is 95%.

There was a mess outside the hospital, but Bai Xi was eating breakfast leisurely.

In the middle of the night yesterday, the Hou Mansion was alerted by a message. Hou Mingxi rushed to the pass outside the city to organize the overall situation.

Mrs. Hou was worried about her husband and stayed up all night. Naturally, all the servants in the general's mansion did not dare to sleep and stayed up until dawn.

Early this morning, Hou Mingxi sent a message saying that he would not be returning home in the next few days.

This news directly lifted Mrs. Hou's heart into her throat.

Mrs. Hou knew clearly that given her husband's ability to lead troops in battle, he was too anxious to go home, which meant that the war was very urgent and he was afraid that something big was going to happen.

When no one had time to pay attention to him, Bai Xi sneaked into the kitchen and peeked at the situation inside through a small aperture in a hidden corner.

In the past few days, she had been eating steamed buns, rice porridge and pickles every day. The meal she ate at the inn at noon was not very greasy, and she was almost starved to death.

Now that everyone is focusing on the frontline war, she has to satisfy her cravings and stock up on food.

When Bai Xi was happily eating the stolen roast chicken in the courtyard, the second mission of this round of the game came.

[Side mission: Pass Adventure

Please use your honorable status to stay at the pass outside the city for three days, and work with the pass defenders to defend your home and country against foreign invasion.

Mission reward: One unlimited lottery draw.]

This task makes Bai Xi’s head hurt.

What does it mean to be upright? In the last mission, I used my powers to easily enter the general's mansion, but this time the game made up for it in time?

Moreover, the first mission is to enter the general's mansion, and the second mission is directly to adventure in the pass.

The game is forcing her to join the war!

But the battlefield is too dangerous, how should I deal with it? And how can a girl enter such a powerful military place?

After thinking for a long time, Bai Xi patted her thigh and thought, "Okay! Since you expect so, I will meet your request."

Bai Xi turned around and walked into the house and collected some supplies, mainly quilts and coats.

The temperature has been dropping in the past few days, and it might snow sometime, so she had to prepare first.

Because he was leaving, Bai Xi collected all the supplies that could be found in the small courtyard into the storage space. As long as it could fit in it, it was never too much.

What she pretends to be the most is the things in the maid's room in the small courtyard, and the things in the main room are all brocade and embroidery, which are too expensive.

The things in the maid's room are not that valuable. They are all quilts and cotton clothes, with almost no brocade or silk.

She is not afraid of being recognized when using it. At worst, she will say that her family is rich and can afford cotton clothes and quilts.

After preparing the belongings, Bai Xi walked to the corner of the entrance and exit, turned around and looked at it with nostalgia, and felt emotional after living there for four or five days.

This small courtyard is really nice, quiet and safe. After the task is completed, she will return to the small courtyard and continue to cat.

Coming out of the General's Mansion, Bai Xi walked out of the city carrying a fake baggage.

Today, some of the soldiers guarding the city were guests in the inn. They recognized Bai Xi and chatted for a few words.

"Little girl, you haven't found any relatives and are you ready to return to your hometown?"

Seeing Bai Xi carrying a baggage and walking out of the city, the soldiers guarding the city were curious. They recognized this girl who came to look for her relatives at a glance.

No way!

This little girl is so beautiful and fair. He has never seen such a beautiful girl.

"If you can't make money, you should go back to your hometown and live a good life!" Bai Xi replied with a smile.

"Then you have to hurry up and get on your way. These days are not peaceful, especially at night. Don't spend the night in the wild. It's very dangerous."

The soldier kindly reminded me.

"Did something happen?" Bai Xi answered and asked.

The patrol team last night also reminded her many times not to go out at night.

"You don't know yet!"

Another soldier came over and whispered: "Many people have died in the past two days, and many people have disappeared. Most of them happened at night, and some people witnessed murders in the street."

Bai Xi pretended to be surprised, "No way! Luoyang City is a big city, how can someone dare to be so arrogant and kill people in the street?"

The two soldiers shook their heads,

"Who knows! Until now, the Yamen has not investigated the famous person."

"A few days ago, a man was chased by three women, and one woman killed another in the street. The next day, the patrol found the bodies of three women in an alley."

"All three women are dead, but the man is missing. Everyone speculates that the man killed the three women."

Just when Bai Xi wanted to continue asking for more news, the city defense captain coughed, and everyone hurriedly dispersed.

"Little girl, leave quickly! Leave this place of right and wrong."

The soldier at the beginning warned.
