[Thirty-two] Rainstorm and Bloody Night
Princess, Your Highness really doesn't know that Mrs. Qingtan encountered such a disaster. All of this was a trick set by King De! In order to make Your Highness rebel against Cheng Clan, King De deliberately released news that Your Highness thought that the emperor was going to be unfavorable to Jiang Clan, which made Your Highness ask for help from Mrs. Qingtan.
It is also King De! He deliberately attracted a group of Xianbei bandits, who escaped from the Queen of Heaven and trapped the Cheng clan soldiers in the Taihang Mountains. They slaughtered all the Cheng clan soldiers, and... to Mrs. Qingtan..."
Zhen Qun's voice was swallowed unconsciously, his eyes full of hatred and resentment towards Ning Nankun. He gritted his teeth and said, "King De! Plan a game of dead chess! In order to successfully intercept His Highness, he actually introduced the Xianbei people to Yuanshi County several months ago, and exchanged the lives of the people in the city for the Xianbei cooperation with him. The Xianbei soldiers burned, killed and looted here, took all their property as their own, and pulled the girls in the city into their military camps to be prostitutes."
After hearing what he said, Jiang Chengjia's face was pale. She leaned weakly against the blue brick wall and slid down, staring at her toes blankly, staring at her toes without moving.
The sound of fighting outside the alley became more and more intense. When Zhen Qun listened, he was extremely anxious and lost his patience to continue explaining to Jiang Chengjia. He put away his emotions and said hurriedly: "Princess, my subordinates cannot stay for a long time. Please take care of yourself and don't let yourself be hurt."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Jiang Chengjia came back to his senses, struggled to get up, chased him and asked, "Tell me first, what is your plan tonight... what is it? There are not a few Xianbei soldiers in the city, and the troops he brought are not as many as half of Ning Nankun's command. The soldiers guarding outside the city are also arranged by Ning Nankun. How do you... win?"
"Your Highness discovered King De's conspiracy, so he pretended to fall into his trap tonight. After leading troops to siege the city, Your Highness had already in advance in instigation of more than a hundred soldiers under King De's command, and ambushed the troops near Yuanshi County and waited for the war to begin tonight.
After we entered the city smoothly, His Highness brought his brothers to set up institutions, and our support was also available in the city. Once His Highness could not help, the army hiding traces in the suburbs waiting for battle would immediately rush into the city to rescue him. Princess, you can rest assured."
Zhen Qun quickly explained, then quickly turned around, left the dark alley, and threw himself into the battlefield.
Jiang Chengjia held the blue brick wall and covered her stuffy chest and gasped slightly. The discomfort made her dizzy in front of her. She forced herself to support herself, wanting to go to the battlefield to protect Ning Nanyou. Unexpectedly, before she walked out of the dark alley, she fell to the ground and completely fainted due to exhaustion of her physical strength.
When she woke up again, it was already late at night. She was rescued by a secret spy installed in Yuanshi County by the Shui Pavilion and brought to a house far away from the main street of the county. The person hiding here was a disciple trained by Fufeng himself. Therefore, she knew Jiang Chengjia's true identity. Seeing that she fainted in the dark alley, she immediately took her back to the stronghold of the Shui Pavilion in this county.
Jiang Chengjia struggled to sit up, stared at the surrounding environment for a moment, looked at one of the little maids guarding her by the bed, frowned and asked, "When is it now?"
The little maid who stayed in the house was a girl under fourteen years old. She was timid and didn't speak easily: "Report, report to the Pavilion Master... it's past the middle of the year."
"Middle Time?" Jiang Chengjia exclaimed while rubbing his sore and painful temples, then immediately lifted the bedding on his body and jumped off the bed.
The little maid stopped her in front of her and said hurriedly: "Master! You need to stay here and don't leave!"
Seeing her panic-looking, Jiang Chengjia felt puzzled in her heart, and asked with a frown, "What happened outside... what happened outside?"
The little maid looked pale and shook her head hard and denied, "No, nothing..."
Her vague and hesitant look made Jiang Chengjia's whole body cool and a feeling of uneasiness gradually spread.
Jiang Chengjia simply didn't say much to her, and reached out to push the maid to the bed. Taking advantage of the gap, she immediately ran towards the door of the house. Unexpectedly, the closed door was pushed open from outside at this time.
Jiang Chengjia looked up and unexpectedly saw Qianshan who shouldn't have appeared here.
She shouted blankly: "Ashan? How are you here?"
Qianshan was also a little surprised at this moment, staring at the girl's haggard and sickly face, and was a little panicked: "Miss, are you awake?"
Jiang Chengjia's eyes were calm, and the uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger. She asked seriously: "There are people from Ning Nankun outside the city, how did you come in?"
Qianshan was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
Jiang Chengjia immediately rushed out to the open space on her right without saying a word. Qianshan couldn't stop him for a moment, and rushed to chase him in a hurry and shouted: "Girl! You can't go out! Girl!"
The girl ran to the gate of the house, and no matter how Qianshan shouted, she could not stop her.
She broke out and came to the street where the house was located. At this time, Yuanshi County was so quiet that it made people feel cold and there was no sound. Jiang Chengjia was shakingly running on the empty street, panting to the streets in front of the prefect's mansion, and was shocked by the scene in front of him.
On the huge long street, blood flowed and pestles were floating, corpses were everywhere, and a heavy smell of blood filled the entire city. This place has become a hell on earth, with white bones exposed in the wild, and under the flames, it is still a full of ghostly aura.
At this time, a lightning flashed from the dark clouds above the city, followed by a deafening thunder sound. Jiang Chengjia walked carefully in the sea of corpses and blood, shocked and lost his direction in panic.
Qianshan chased after her, grabbed her sleeve and shouted anxiously: "Girl, go back with me!"
Jiang Chengjia shook her hand away and asked tremblingly, "Where is the king...? Where is the king!!"
Qianshan looked stiff and shook her head at a loss: "After I entered Yuanshi City, I didn't see my son-in-law... The brothers searched around the city, but only saw corpses all over the ground, but no living person was found."
Jiang Chengjia murmured to himself: "Impossible! Impossible!"
She turned around, her eyes were dry and red, and she began to search wildly among the mountain of corpses. Qianshan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but she pushed him away and fell on the body of the Xianbei soldiers. She searched almost madly and found the Xicheng Gate from the end of the long street.
Thunder sounded in the sky, and the accumulated dark clouds finally could not bear the weight of the rain. They slowly spread a gap, pouring down a heavy rain like a flood discharge. The cold rain soaked the girl's whole body's clothes. However, she seemed to have no feeling, like a walking corpse, and only knew to walk forward in a daze.
The Xicheng Gate of Yuanshi County is now open without any barriers, not as tightly closed as it was when it came.
Jiang Chengjia stared at the trees that were constantly swaying due to the heavy rain outside the city. She suddenly woke up. A little hope was rekindled in her illuminated eyes, and she ran wildly outside the city gate.
Qianshan followed behind, but she didn't expect that she would suddenly run out of the city, so she hurriedly struggled from the pile of corpses and chased after her. While chasing, she shouted loudly: "Girl! Girl! Where are you going?!"
Unexpectedly, the girl running in front of her had no response to her call, and she was as if she was possessed, and she only knew how to run forward.
Suddenly, a roar and hiss came from the forest. The sound was snarling and heartbreaking, making people shudder. Jiang Chengjia's pace of galloping paused for a moment due to the roar, so he quickly accelerated his pace and moved quickly in the direction where the roar was emitted.
Qianshan followed in a hurry. The two girls rushed to the woods on the west side of Yuanshi County, and saw scattered corpses scattered here. Walking further deeper, they saw the bodies of Xianbei soldiers with their throats cut and limbs broken by others piled up in disorderly manner. The muddy land was covered with sticky blood, emitting an extremely fishy stench.
Qianshan covered her nose and frowned and stared at the bloody corpse river in front of her, her eyes full of surprise and surprise.
Jiang Chengjia staggered forward and walked around a towering towering tree. Behind the tree, she saw Ning Nanyou who disappeared from Yuanshi County. At that time, the young man was holding a blue dragon knife in his left hand and holding the clothes of a strong Xianbei man with his right hand. His dark eyes were shrinking terriblely, and the blue veins on his temples were jumping faintly.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chengjia saw the long sword in his hand pierced into the chest of the strong Xianbei man with determination. Blood gushed out and splashed everywhere. Blood stains spilled on the face of Lang Jun, dispersing in the shape of a dot, embellishing his twisted expression, making him look like a vicious devil in hell, making people stand up.
She looked at him and saw with her own eyes that he twisted the knife in his hand around the chest of the strong Xianbei man, as if he had irreconcilable hatred and grudges with it. The strong Xianbei man who had firmly strangled his Mingmen felt the violent friction and rotation of the sharp blade between his abdomen and intestines, and his eyes were wide open, until it was about to crack. In a moment, the strong man twitched twice like a fish that had lost water, stopped breathing, and fell to the ground and died.
Ning Nanyou stood up from the ground with the hilt of the knife, and tried his best to pull the blade out of the dead strong man's body. He shakingly took a few steps back, and when he raised his head, he looked desolate and confused.
