Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 564 No Country, No Home, Floating Weeds in Troubled Times

Zi Nu rode a horse and walked slowly towards the city gate.

She was brisk and even had a slight smile on her face.

It is a happy thing for her to know what she should do, even if she will pay the price of her life for doing this.

Wei Tuo was still standing in that dark alley, watching Zi Nu drift away, his expression was still confused, as if he was still digesting the change that Zi Nu brought him.

Revenge and restoration of the country is not a matter for Zinu alone. All the survivors of the subjugated Loulan Kingdom regard it as their lifelong goal, and they will do whatever it takes to do so.

But today, as the only royal princess of the Loulan Kingdom and the leader of all survivors, she has easily let go of everything, and has been free to come and go between heaven and earth ever since.

But what about him?What about all the remnants?what should they doDo you still have the motivation to continue on the road that cannot see the light of day?

The slightly fat Wei Tuo, a seven-foot-tall man, suddenly had tears in his eyes and sobs.

Zi Nu's soul was cleansed and freed, but Wei Tuo's soul seemed to be emptied in an instant.

The only belief that supported him collapsed. From now on, who will he live for?Who are you fighting for?

After standing in the dark alley for a long time, Wei Tuo suddenly ran forward madly.

Zi Nu is chasing the light, he is chasing Zi Nu, or in other words, he is chasing a faith that refuses to give up.

Zi Nu on horseback had already walked out of the city gate, and there was a vast wasteland outside the city. Zi Nu took a deep breath, identified the direction, and was about to ride his horse towards the Tubo camp, when Wei Tuo's shout came from Came from behind.

"Your Highness, how dare you abandon me!" Wei Tuo ran fast, hoarse.

Zi Nu glanced behind him and sighed sadly, but the horse under him continued to move forward and never stopped for him.

She is not heartless, she just wants to make a clean break with the past.

Wei Tuo was still running tirelessly, when he tripped over a stone suddenly, Wei Tuo flew up and fell heavily to the ground, ignoring the yellow sand all over his face, enduring the severe pain and continuing to chase.

Zi Nu reined in suddenly, and the horse stopped helplessly.

Wei Tuo, who was in a panic after rolling and crawling, finally ran in front of Zi Nu's horse, gasping for breath with his mouth wide open, his face and body were covered with yellow sand, and his cheek was also cut.

Zi Nu sighed: "Weituo, why are you bothering? From the day Loulan was destroyed, there is no hope of restoring the country. We can't waste our lives on this hopeless thing from generation to generation. Let's give up. "

Wei Tuo gasped for a long time before saying: "Give up, your Highness said to give up, so let's give up."

"Then why are you still here?"

"Where does Your Highness want to go, I would like to protect His Highness and go with you."

Zi Nu shook her head: "What I'm going to do is my personal business, and it's very dangerous. I can't involve you in it."

Wei Tuo bowed his head in silence for a long time, then suddenly smiled: "Your Highness, let me be involved..."

Eyes were red again, Wei Tuo choked up and said: "Otherwise, I don't know what to do in this life. The country is ruined and my family is ruined. I... have nowhere to go."

Crouching on the ground, Wei Tuo burst into tears like a helpless child.

Zi Nu also shed tears. People without country and family are like duckweed in troubled times, with nowhere to lean on. They are just a group of orphans in the world. It was a painful pain that could not be healed for a long time.

"Your Highness, let me follow you, no matter what you do, I will risk my life for you." Wei Tuo cried.

Zi Nu wiped away tears silently, and said in a low voice: "I want to save a person, he should be our enemy, are you willing too?"

"Yes! Your Highness must have your reasons for what you do."

Zi Nu sniffed, and smiled with tears: "Then, come with me."

Wei Tuo breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and jumped vigorously a few times for joy, and said again: "Your Highness, the rest of the brothers..."

Zi Nu hesitated for a moment, then sighed: "Go and ask them, I'll wait for them here, if you want to go with me, come out of the city to see them."

Wei Tuo nodded vigorously, and was about to turn back to the city, but looked at Zi Nu hesitantly.

Seeing what he was thinking, Zi Nu smiled and said, "I won't leave, I'll wait for you here, I won't lie to you."

Wei Tuo said deeply: "Your Highness, we are one family, and the family cannot be separated."

"Go, we will not be separated in this life."

After leaving Qinghai Lake, Li Qinzai and his party continued westward.

Two days later, they came to Dafeichuan, where the flames of war had not ceased. There were countless corpses strewn all over the way. Some of them were wearing leather armor, while others were only wearing simple sheepskin. Spears, and even farm implements and bare sticks.

The vultures in the sky kept circling, and the corpses all over the ground had been devoured beyond recognition by the vultures. It looked terrifying and frightening, like falling into purgatory.

Witnessing the most intuitive and tragic scene of this war with his own eyes, Li Qinzai frowned more and more, and his expression became more and more uncomfortable.

It's not that he has never experienced war. When the Japanese kingdom was destroyed, he was still the commander of the army. What kind of death has he never seen?

But the scene in front of him was much more tragic than when he conquered the Japanese kingdom. No matter how strong Li Qinzai's mental quality was, he couldn't help but turn blue at this moment.

"Fifth Shaolang, don't look at it, let's hurry up and leave." Liu Asi persuaded in a low voice.

Li Qinzai took a deep breath, his nostrils were filled with the smell of death.

"Where did Sun Congdong's troops go?" Li Qinzai asked.

"In the morning, a scout came to report that Sun Congdong led a thousand imperial troops, less than two hundred miles behind us, waiting for orders from General Wu Shaolang at any time."

Li Qinzai hummed, and said: "Let them hang around at a distance, don't get too close, and don't stay too far away from us, and fly the banner of the envoy of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, even if the Tubo army finds it, it doesn't matter, just call it the envoy of the Tang Dynasty Guard of honor, anyone who dares to stop them will be shot indiscriminately."

"Yes."

Immediately, Liu Ahsi said worriedly: "Five Shaolang, we have entered the hinterland of Tuyuhun at this moment, and this place has been occupied by Tubo, are they really unruly and harming you?"

Li Qinzai snorted, and said: "When I didn't follow the rules, they were just fish and meat that I cut with a knife. Now that it's changed, what should come will always come. What are you afraid of?"

"The villain is not afraid, but Wu Shaolang is in danger. If something happens to you, the descendants of the villain will be ashamed to see the old man."

Li Qinzai smiled, and was about to tease him when he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes coming from ahead.

Liu Asi was taken aback, and even when he drew out his sword, Lao Wei and all the trilogy also drew out their swords one after another, turned their horses to protect Li Qinzai in the middle, and stared vigilantly at the soldiers and horses ahead.

"Wu Shaolang, the sound of the horse's hooves is coming quickly, and it seems that there is a posture of charging. I am afraid that the comer is not friendly. If there is a conflict after a short stop, Wu Shaolang quickly breaks through from the rear, and I will seal their way for you!" Old Wei His expression was dignified and authentic.
