collapse!
The bowstring sounded.

Clusters of arrows flashed coldly in the air, and the big bird hovering in the air fell down, flapped its wings, and fell like a stone into the grass not far away.

"Wow, really hit it!"

Shen Yuexi jumped up happily, not forgetting to give Xiao Zhuo a thumbs up to express her admiration, and then ran towards the place where the big bird fell.Qiang Lin led several secret guards to follow behind her.

Looking at her bouncing figure, Xiao Zhuo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and handed the bow to Qiu Liming who was standing behind him.

It has been a full week since Xiaogang Village started westward.Since yesterday, this kind of bird can always be seen passing through the air in twos and threes, flying west across the woods ahead.

Shen Yuexi became interested in these birds just as she thought the journey was boring.But they fly so high that it's hard to see what kind of bird they are, so she urged Xiao Zhuo to show his arrow skills, shoot one down and let her... make a tooth sacrifice.

Eating noodles and jerky every day is too monotonous.

In the previous life, in order to protect the increasingly rare wild animals, all countries have strict legal constraints.Even the universal manufacturing machine has a built-in legal query module, and animals cannot be harmed at will.

For Shen Yuexi, who is a foodie, occasionally tasting game is also a kind of reward for herself.

When she ran to the grass, the big bird stopped fluttering, and Xiao Zhuo's arrow shot right through its bare neck.

The body of the bird is larger than that of a domestic rooster. Not only does it have no hair on its neck, but its head is also bald.There is only a circle of fluffy brown feathers around the base of the neck, like a scarf.

"What's the name of this bird?" Shen Yuexi squatted in front of her and thought hard.

She is not a zoologist, and spends most of her time inventing in the laboratory.I remember seeing this bird in my impression, but I can't remember the name.

"Master, back off." Qiang Lin's voice sounded behind her, "This bird is extremely poisonous."

"Toxic?" Shen Yuexi didn't believe it, but she stood up obediently and took a step back.

Qiang Lin is from Xirong, so he must know something about this bird.She turned to Qiang Lin and said, "Qiang Lin, what's the name of this bird?"

"Vulture," Qiang Lin replied, pulling out his saber and poking at the bird's body with the tip of the saber, "Master, there is a poisonous poison in the vulture's body that can dissolve even our saber, so don't approach it easily, first let it See if there is any venom coming out."

Shen Yuexi took a breath, "So powerful?"

She didn't remember any poison that could dissolve even metal, only strong acid could do it.Qiang Lin shouldn't be talking about poison, right?

"Master, please take a look."

After Qiang Lin finished the inspection, he bent down and pulled out the feather arrow from the vulture's neck, and showed it to Shen Yuexi.

Sure enough, as he said, part of the arrow shaft has turned black.

"It seems that I can't eat it." Shen Yuexi stuck out her tongue.

This bird has so much poison in its body, what if it is poisoned by eating it.She didn't want to die young on the way.

Qiang Lin threw the feather arrow away, and said to Shen Yuexi: "Master, even if he wants to eat it, he can't do it. The meat of the vulture is too hard to chew. It's not a last resort. We Xirong people will not touch this kind of bird." …

Shen Yuexi thought to herself, then let Da Xiong make a pressure cooker, and there is still meat that can't be cooked?

She looked at the saber slung around Qiang Lin's waist.

There is no iron ore in this place for her to squander. If she wants to make a pressure cooker, she doesn't know where to get the raw materials for parts such as sealing rings.Besides, I don't know how many knives I need... Forget it, let's go back to eat cakes.

"Since Qiang Lin said you can't eat it, let's go back." She stood up and walked back.

Qiang Lin waved to the surrounding guards, motioning everyone to follow the master.

Shen Yuexi asked as she walked: "Since yesterday, I can see these vultures flying overhead, and I don't know how many of them flew past. Where are they going?"

"They are looking for food." Qiang Lin followed her three feet away.

"Eat?" Shen Yuexi stood still, looking at the sky above where several vultures flew by, "What do they eat?"

"carrion."

"Carrion... birds that eat carrion," Shen Yuexi looked to the west, "what's the place over there?"

"It's almost to Leshan County."

Shen Yuexi was stunned for a moment, then stepped back to the front of the convoy, and said to Xiao Zhuo: "Husband, how about we rest after passing through the woods ahead? We will soon reach Leshan."

When Xirong's [-] troops besieged Leshan, Xiao Zhuo led [-] cavalry to rescue the Xiliang King. This was the battlefield for both sides.She had anticipated what she would see ahead.

Hearing this, Xiao Zhuo looked up at the woods to the west, not too far away, and said to Qiu Liming:

"The convoy continued on and passed the woods before resting."

The convoy set off again, through the woods.

Shen Yuexi sat in the car, feeling restless.As soon as she passed through the woods, she ordered the driver to stop the carriage, opened the door and jumped down.

Several vultures spread their wings and flew from the ground near the carriage, screaming and flying into the distance.

They were fighting over the remains of a dead horse.The horse's flesh had been eaten away by the vultures, only the white bones stained with brown blood were piled up there, and the saddles were scattered all over the ground.

There was a rotten smell in the air.Shen Yuexi covered her mouth and nose and stood on a high slope, opened her eyes wide, looking at the scene in front of her in surprise.

Under the gray sky, countless vultures are circling in the air, looking from a distance like fluttering black feathers flying all over the sky.

The ground in the distance is full of groups of vultures fighting for each other, flapping their wings and fanning up a large cloud of smoke and dust.As far as the eye could see, there were human corpses and the bones of dead horses lying here and there on the ground.Armor and blades reflected the sun's rays.The armors belonged to both Xiliang soldiers and Xirong soldiers.

There was a terrible battle here.The corpses everywhere attracted countless vultures.

At some point, Xiao Zhuo stood beside her.

Shen Yuexi rested her head on Xiao Zhuo's chest: "I don't want to read it."

Every corpse on the battlefield is the ruin of a family.She had also experienced several battles and was mentally prepared, but she was still shocked by the sight in front of her.

Xiao Zhuo gently stroked her long hair: "When King Doma sent cavalry here, we fought here."

Shen Yuexi looked up at Xiao Zhuo in surprise.

The cold wind blew his black hair, his eyes were drooping on his jade-like white face, and his long eyelashes trembled slightly.The thin lips were pursed into a line. …

Everything in front of him seemed to have no effect on this man.

However, the tragedy here was caused by him alone.

"The opponent has [-] cavalry, and we have [-]. Either the enemy will die or we will die," Xiao Zhuo said in a deep voice, "If anything happens, you can find me here today..."

Shen Yuexi covered his mouth with her hand and said, "Don't say such unlucky words. War is life and death. I'm not a child, I can understand."

The two armies are fighting, and there is no time to show mercy to anyone other than a deadly battle.

Having experienced so many battles, she already understood the cruelty of war.

Xiao Zhuo said softly: "Do you regret following me?"

Shen Yuexi shook her head: "No. I hope that one day, my husband can let everyone live a peaceful life."

The war is obviously not wishful thinking on either side.If you really want to calm down this troubled world, Xiao Zhuo is a person who is capable of doing it, maybe Xiao Beiheng can do it too.But in her opinion, Xiao Beiheng was too cruel.

Xiao Zhuo also made such a move, almost killing five thousand soldiers.But she would not allow him to continue.She is Xiao Zhuo's wife, she will never watch her husband become a tyrant.

Xiao Zhuo nodded and said: "As the Crown Prince of Yan, all the people in the world are my subjects. Naturally, I want to calm the troubled times and appease all living beings."

At this time, Doctor Hua, supported by two hidden guards, also stood on the high slope.

During this trip to Yongwei, Dr. Hua also followed.First of all, Dr. Hua has excellent medical skills, and Shen Yuexi needs him.Secondly, he also happened to go to Yongwei to see how Mei Pu was recovering from his condition.

Doctor Hua asked Hua Duoduo to arrange for his wife and children to live in Xiaogang Village, and he came here happily.

"The king of Xiliang is really... alas," Doctor Hua looked at the battlefield full of corpses and shook his head again and again, "He was besieged at the beginning, so there is nothing wrong with returning to Yongwei after he escaped danger. Busy with your son's marriage."

Between the words, it was obvious that he was extremely disappointed with the King of Xiliang.

Shen Yuexi thought so too.

Is such a person really worthy to rule Xiliang?
