【Beiliang City】

【Passing through the city gate is fine!】

【Mercury spies had already reported to you that Ye Mu was in the Changping Hou Fu in the city.】

【Your identities had long been prepared. The guard's eyes swept over, carrying a bit of scrutiny, feeling that your face was a bit familiar, and finally let you go.】

【People are coming and going in the city, and business is prosperous.】

【In Beiliang City, it is bustling with noise and excitement, merchants are gathering, and there is the smoke and fire of the market.】

【It is worthy of being a major city of a prefecture.】

【The three horses came to the Changping Hou Fu, the gate was closed, and there was not even a guard at the door.】

【With your cultivation, you couldn't feel any movement in the mansion, as if the large courtyard was empty, without a trace of living breath.】

【Ji Qinxin, whose cultivation is shallow, looked at the jujube-red gate and only felt that the large Hou Fu was too quiet.】

【Just at this time, a crisp eagle cry pierced the sky, and the East Sea Green "Chufeng" flapped its wings and landed steadily on your shoulder.】

【On those sharp claws, it tightly grasped a cylindrical paper strip.】

【You slowly unfolded the paper strip, and the handwriting on it was clear: "Ye Mu urgently summoned mansion soldiers early this morning and quietly went north."】

【You swept over the paper strip faintly, without revealing any emotion.】

【Lu Yu asked coldly: "Fled north?"】

【Lu Yu is a special existence in the Lu Army, everyone is a bit afraid of him, and he doesn't communicate with people, always doing his own thing.】

【Before, if you wanted to fight, you had to discuss countermeasures and plan deployments with people. He originally felt troublesome, and after Lu Chen came later, he simply didn't care.】

【Just focus on fighting on the battlefield!】

【He doesn't seem to be close to anyone except Lu Chen and his father. If anyone made a mistake, begging for mercy would be useless.】

【Lu Yu became a sword in the Lu Army, and everyone had to reflect on themselves.】

【You nodded gently, your voice calm and waveless: "Today, Ye Mu has taken the mansion soldiers north."】

【Ji Qinxin heard this, her eyebrows slightly wrinkled, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.】

【The dignified Marquis Changping of the Yan State actually chose to flee to avoid punishment, which is undoubtedly a heaven-shaking major event, the crime of treason.】

【Moreover, as an important figure in the Lu Army, the important secrets of the Yan State's military and political affairs he holds, once they fall into the hands of the North Wind, the consequences are unimaginable.】

【In Ji Qinxin's heart, there was some worry. Now as your disciple, and also a part of the Yan State, her change of identity made her have to think about problems from her position.】

【You gently let go of Chufeng, and it flapped its wings and flew high, as if looking for something.】

【Lu Yu's mouth hooked a smile and said: "Chasing now, it's not too late!"】

【With the ability of the East Sea Green Chufeng, as long as the target is not too far, it will definitely be able to find clues, and it made great military achievements in the Lu Army that year.】

【Moreover, Ye Mu's whereabouts have already been determined.】

【The three of you rode fast horses, left the city, and followed the direction north.】

【You originally wanted to persuade Ji Qinxin to stay, but her eyes were firm and she insisted on going together.】

【You only saw the Qi Luck on Ji Qinxin's head like golden light, and there was no black Qi.】

【You nodded silently and allowed her.】

【Chufeng led you all the way.】

【Two days later, crossing the steep mountain stream on both sides, the front suddenly opened up, and a vast plain appeared in front of you.】

【Less than a hundred miles, it is the border of Haozhou, and further ahead is the North Wind.】

【The eagle strikes the sky, Chufeng circles in the high sky, its sharp eyes penetrate, and from afar, it seems to have captured the movement ahead.】

【On the back of your hand, the sweat hair stood up slightly.】

【On the plain, the long wind rose suddenly, blowing Ji Qinxin's long hair, she reached out to brush the black hair by her ear and tied it with a cloth belt.】

【You reined in the horses, and looking at the place, not far ahead, it seems that a large army has been waiting for a long time.】

【Dense, black, a piece, heavy armored cavalry like a flood, arranged in front.】

【That number is a full ten thousand.】

【Like black scales pressing on the ground!】

【Ji Qinxin saw this scene, she looked back fiercely, only to see that after crossing the mountain stream, there were also ambush soldiers.】

【Black iron armor and cold light flickering, three horses connected, the chains below "so-so" sounded.】

【Chasing soldiers in front, enemies coming from behind!】

【On the high-flying flag, the two words "Tuoba" were embroidered, eye-catching and majestic.】

【Ji Qinxin recognized at a glance that Tuoba is the surname of the North Wind royal family, which means that what they are facing is the North Wind cavalry.】

【Her heart sank, how could they encounter so many cavalry here?】

【The two enemy forces in front and behind have formed an encirclement, the number of cavalry exceeds ten thousand, like a copper wall and iron wall, tightly surrounding the three, like birds in a cage, unable to fly.】

【Although this place is a plain, the terrain around it rises subtly, forming a natural depression.】

【At this moment, it is more like a huge prison, trapping you firmly in it, with nowhere to hide.】

【This is a desperate situation!】

【The war horse is spiritual, sensing the master's panic, Ji Qinxin's mount was also terrified, suddenly jumping into the air, standing on two legs.】

【You turned sideways and held the reins tightly, soothing the war horse. You said indifferently, your voice like still water:】

【"Don't be chaotic when facing major events, if the heart is panicked, you will lose the opportunity. Even if the vitality is close at hand, it is difficult to grasp."】

【Ji Qinxin heard this, held the horse rope tightly, and looked at you.】

【On your face, there was no fear at all, but a piece of plainness, as if this was nothing in the army of ten thousand.】

【Mount Tai collapses in front, and the face does not change color.】

【Her heart couldn't help but ripple.】

【Ji Qinxin didn't know why, but she caught a hint of indescribable expectation on your face.】

【That expectation seems to transcend the heavy crises in front of her. She paid attention to your gaze, not moved by the surrounding cavalry like a forest, but instead looked up at the sky inadvertently.】

【Lu Yu noticed a piece of paper floating leisurely in the void above the three people, with the word "Forbidden" clearly visible, flickering with mysterious faint light.】

【This place!】

【Actually, a mysterious restriction was set up, not only blocking the road ahead, but also completely isolating the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, making it a dead place.】

【You felt it carefully and found that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth seemed to be completely excluded in this space and could not be used by you.】

【After the Heavenly Human Realm, practitioners should be unimpeded inside and outside heaven and earth, with inexhaustible spiritual energy. They can even influence the outside world with the inner world and perform powerful "external scene" killing moves.】

【However, if there is no spiritual energy, practitioners of the Heavenly Human Realm can only rely on the spiritual energy in their bodies.】

【Once used up, their strength is no different from the Grandmaster Realm, and there is no advantage.】

【When the air dissipated that year, Emperor Jing relied on two thousand Mingguang armored heavy armored soldiers to kill "Zhu Fuzi," who was already in the Heavenly Human Realm.】

【Heavenly Human is no more than two thousand armor.】

【However, there are more than ten thousand people here, surrounding you.】

【Ten deaths and no life!】

【Ji Qinxin understood that this was a game designed long ago.】

【Ye Mu went north, the three of you chased, but didn't expect that what was waiting was not Ye Mu, but an ambush of the North Wind.】

【However, how could they expect the Prince of Yan to come alone and go north from Beiliang City again?】

【All this seems too coincidental.】

【The Prince of Yan has fought many battles, and after many years of wind and rain, he has laid down this country, and he is definitely not a reckless person.】

【After the founding of the country, someone in the Lu Army actually got out of control, and in Haozhou, there were so many northern cavalry.】

【All this reveals something unusual!】

【The matter has reached this point, it seems there is no turning back.】

【Lu Yu's gaze crossed the iron armor in front, only to see those cavalry automatically separate a path, and seven people rode out, obviously the leaders this time.】

【Ji Qinxin looked at it, and was even more surprised.】

【Among them, a middle-aged scholar with elegant style and a young man full of blood and energy were in front.】

【It is the Demon Master Huang Dao and Xie Mu in the tavern of Yuetang River.】

【Lu Yu also recognized one of them, Tuoba Hongyan, the son of Tuoba Shuyi, and also the current North Wind Crown Prince.】

【The remaining three, there are monks wearing cassocks and solemn treasures, and swordsmen holding scimitars, all of whom are first-class masters in the jianghu, with deep cultivation, and have reached the realm of Grandmaster.】

【Your cultivation has reached the Heavenly Human Realm, and you can see clearly from several miles away.】

【Among these three, the leader is a general in the Grandmaster Realm. When you went north to the North Wind and participated in the White Horse Alliance, you had met him once.】

【This person is the rising star in the North Wind army, "Gao Wenxiao."】

【His pair of eyes are as sharp as a falcon, locking onto the three of you from afar, and the coldness and ruthlessness revealed in his eyes seem to have regarded you as a dead person.】

【You look at him, only to see his ambition and murderous intent, like substance.】

【You couldn't help but think, your good head, is it worth more than ten thousand gold?】

【Those who take your life will surely be famous in the world, and can win a foothold for themselves in this troubled world.】

【The iron cavalry pressed the border, neat and uniform, and after approaching a certain distance, they slowed down.】

【Just at this time!】

【A terrifying sound of bowstrings sounded neatly all around, dense like beads, deafening.】

【Strong bows and crossbows, within this range, have terrifying lethality, enough to pierce heavy armor.】

【"Release!"】

【Following the order, the sky seemed to be covered by endless arrows, like bees buzzing, dense, blocking the sky and the sun.】

【Ji Qinxin looked up, only to see the black cloud-like arrows coming, her heart tightened, and her legs trembled involuntarily.】

【How can this arrow rain be resisted?】

【Even if it is a dragon on land, under the ravages of this arrow rain, it is difficult to escape the fate of being shot.】

【"Release again!"】

【Another order, the sound of bowstrings was dense like beads, and a cloud of arrows appeared in the sky again.】

【Ji Qinxin could no longer remain calm, she knew that with her cultivation, she could not resist this army's killing technique.】

【The arrows poured down like a sudden rain, and the sound of breaking the air was deafening, making people tremble with fear.】

【You and Lu Yu saw this, operated the Gang Qi in the Innate Skill, formed a solid protective cover, and protected the three tightly. You pulled Ji Qinxin to the same war horse, only to see the arrows falling on the protective cover.】

【The arrows fell like rain, hitting the Gang Qi protective cover violently, making a "bang-bang" sound, like hitting a hard rock.】

【The arrowheads broke in response, and the fragments splashed around.】

【However, the arrows seemed endless, one wave after another, falling continuously.】

【Ji Qinxin looked at the arrow rain surging like a tide, and then looked down at the war horse she had just ridden, only to see that it had knelt to the ground, covered with arrow feathers.】

【The war horse didn't even make a sound, and it had no life, and there was a pool of blood underneath.】

【The war horse's gem-like eyes were not spared, shot through by arrows, and the ground was densely covered with broken arrows and arrow feathers, not knowing whether it was tears or blood.】

【Ji Qinxin didn't dare to imagine, if she hadn't been saved in time, what kind of scene would it be now.】

【Shooting arrows without stopping.】

【The crossbow arrows coming from all sides, one round after another.】

【Ji Qinxin felt that breathing was becoming more and more difficult, and her eyes fell on your face, which was still calm.】

【After the fourth round of arrow rain.】

【She could clearly see that the traces of arrows penetrating the Gang Qi protective cover were becoming more and more obvious, as if they could collapse at any time.】

【Her face was pale, and a fear that could not be suppressed rose in her heart.】

【Lu Yu's face was also not good, he looked up at the "Forbidden" character spell in the void.】

【If it weren't for this spell isolating the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, this situation of consuming spiritual energy in the body would not have happened.】

【"Release again!"】

【"Prepare to charge!"】

【The cavalry in the back had already begun to move, starting to charge, and the sound of iron chains sounded continuously.】

【The sound of the army galloping on the ground began to appear.】

【Facing this situation... you decide.】

1. Simulation continues. (Tip: May encounter danger.)

2. Participate personally. (2/3) (Tip: No danger, may move toward the unknown, please choose carefully.)

The blue subtitles on the great tripod slowly froze.

Yu Ke looked at the three options above.

A bit confused for the first time.

According to the previous prompts, choosing "Go alone" this time should not encounter danger.

Why did danger appear in the prompt of the option at this time.

Ah Ding, did you make a mistake this time?

Then how should I choose!

Yu Ke was a bit hesitant, at this time "Lu Chen" encountered danger, he should have avoided it.

However!

Participate personally, only the last time is left, do you want to use it now?

A difficult choice!

After the seventh wave of arrow rain, the traces of arrows penetrating the Gang Qi protective cover became more and more obvious, as if they could collapse at any time.】

Ji Qinxin looked anxiously at Master Lu Chen, only to see him holding a swaying red flame in his hand, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.】

However!】

Even so, his face still maintained a piece of calm, as if he had expected all this.】

Ji Qinxin couldn't help but feel a worry, if Master fell here, she was afraid she would not be spared.】

She smiled miserably!】

With Master's current status and status, if he fell here, the world would definitely be shocked.】

However, even at this moment of life and death, Master never abandoned her.】

Life and death do not abandon!】

Made Ji Qinxin feel an indescribable touch.】

She had drifted in the jianghu for many years and was used to a life without reliance, but at this moment, she had a sense of belonging to the Sanzhen Sect of Mount Zhongnan that she had never had before.】

Next life, I hope I don't grow this face again.】

Join Master's sect again in the next life.】

Just when she was ready to die, Ji Qinxin suddenly noticed a smile on Master's face.】

A voice came faintly.】

"Enter the game with your body!"】

"I don't know, how you should choose."】

Ji Qinxin heard this, confused, not knowing who you were answering to.】
