The husband is actually time-traveling!

Chapter 82 Shilan Barren Tomb ([-])

"This... I'm a good boy!" Ergou was a little dumbfounded.

In the blink of an eye, the entire deserted temple including the surrounding earth and rocks collapsed into ruins.

The lush forest trees and leaves withered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the land seemed to have been exposed to the scorching sun for seven days and nights, exposing dry sand.

Terrifying cracks spread across the ground.

Two horses, one brown and one black, were still tied to the tree. They were restless, neighing and pacing, avoiding the gaps in the ground.

The two dogs waved their hands to release the Qi machine and cut off their imprisonment.

As soon as Lao Xu slipped out, he jumped on the sleek black horse and ran out at the head of the horse. He was quite fast. When it comes to horse control, there are probably few people in the whole Daqin who can beat him.

The horse's hooves splashed yellow dust, and Lao Xu's throaty shouting came from the distance.

"Goucha'er, Zong'er is my big treasure. I entrusted it to you, so you must treat it well!"

The second dog pulled the saddle rope and got on the brown horse. Hearing this, he whipped the horse unceremoniously on its buttocks.

"drive!"

The brown horse raised its neck and screamed in pain, running wildly in pursuit of Lao Xu.

All you see along the way is desolate sandy land, and the few remaining villages are also in ruins. The villagers dragged their families and fled towards the city, wailing, until they left the mountains and saw the green color again.

Nearly a hundred people gathered around the small tea stall at the foot of the mountain. They had all come out of the mountain in surprise. Some people were leading sheep and cows. There was a mess everywhere.

"You have done evil, the mountain god is angry, and natural disasters come to the world."

A skinny old man with white beard and hair was sitting on the roadside, patting his thighs and wailing loudly in a hoarse voice:
"Choose a pair of boys and girls to sacrifice to the mountain god, so that it is possible to appease the mountain god's anger."

The laws of the Qin Dynasty strictly prohibited human sacrifice. Although many remote villages repeatedly banned it, most people still resisted this matter.

Although many people were looking around with evil intentions at this time, those with children at home sneered at the old man's words.

The woman sitting opposite the old man even let out a "poof", showing the attitude of a fierce woman, and then pulled a pair of children behind her, wary of the people with different expressions around her.

Ergou looked at the group of people one by one, but did not see the tall black horse or Lao Xu.

Lao Xu ran so fast that he couldn't even catch up with him.

The tall outer walls are vaguely visible on the horizon, and further ahead is Luyang City.

Looking back at the mountains that collapsed from time to time due to loose soil, Ergou had a headache and couldn't think of what to do now.

The task he received was a map and a note in a brocade bag. The note asked him to go to the Tianlao to rob the prison, and escort Wan Yanjing out of Shangjing. The robberies and escape routes were planned.

Yes, there is no Huo Xiang, there is only Wanyanjing.

Prince Huo was like an accident.

Ergou took out two cents to buy a drink from the tea stall owner, drank it all in one gulp, and then sat down to rest with Ma.

Twisting the slightly rough horse hair, Ergou's expression gradually darkened.

There are many things that I haven't thought about in detail, but when I calm down and think about it, I can notice that there are a lot of things wrong.

Lao Xu seemed a little weird.

In fact, Ergou and the groom Lao Xu were not familiar with each other, and they had not even spoken to each other a few times before this operation.

He didn't care about Lao Xu, because Lao Xu obviously had no martial arts skills. Although his movements were agile when escaping, he was still within the scope of ordinary people.

But some of the details recalled at this time made people feel more and more that Lao Xu was not simple.

The road after going to Beijing was chosen by Lao Xu. His decision to go to his hometown of Luyang was the result of Lao Xu's guidance. The news about the legendary miracle doctor in Luyang was also inadvertently told to him by Lao Xu.

Huo Xiang himself didn't like riding in carriages, and Prince Xuan's Mansion didn't have a horseman at first.

Later, the reason why the horseman was needed was because Huo Xiang married the princess and needed a carriage to travel, so naturally he also needed someone to control the horse.

Lao Xu, a groom, had always been inconspicuous in Prince Wuxuan's palace. He had been working in the stable for six years in obscurity and had little contact with his master's family or Bai Ze.

Like a real mediocre groom.But at this moment, he unexpectedly jumped out.

Ergou originally thought that he and he were on the same team, but now that he thought about it, it was wrong. He was the one who had preconceived ideas.

A few days ago, Ergou got the secret order from his old place and was about to set out to rob the prison, but there was a sudden knock on the door.

When he opened the door, he saw it was Lao Xu, the groom in the mansion.

Lao Xu was dressed as if he was ready to go out, and walked in very familiarly:

"Master Ergou, no, I am Lao Xu, the horseman. Hey, the carriage is ready. I will meet you at the exit outside the city. Let's set off now."

Scenes emerged before Ergou's eyes, including how Lao Xu had an affair with him, how he casually mentioned the miracle doctor "waiting" in Luyang, and how he tried to trick him.

Thinking about it now, Lao Xu was not mentioned in the secret order note he first received.

Ergou, who had always been a bit naive, suddenly felt that he had fallen into an abyss. He finally figured out something that was scary to think about.

The teammates who rescued people with him didn't seem to be his teammates.

Lao Xu seemed to have expected the current situation.

It's over, it's all over!
Ergou was extremely upset, Lao Xu was probably a liar.

The master and his wife were tricked into a strange place by Lao Xu. They must be gone now.

It's all his fault, he's too trusting!
-
"Tick, tick!"

Wan Yanjing was awakened by the sound of water dripping, and she sat up with difficulty, her whole body feeling like it was falling apart.

In the darkness, someone was rummaging around for something.

Soon a luminous pearl as big as a pigeon egg was pulled out, illuminating a small area.

Huo Xiang was covered in blood and looked miserable.

With his wet hair stuck to his cheek, he lay on his side and stared at the night pearl in his hand. His long eyelashes were fluttering, his body was trembling slightly, and his lips were bitten and turned white, which was extremely pitiful.

"are you OK?"

As soon as Wan Yanjing spoke, she was startled by her hoarse voice. Her forehead felt hot and her body felt cold. She was obviously in a high fever state.

"Hmm..." Huo Xiang snorted, took two rough breaths, and placed Ye Mingzhu between them.

Wan Yanjing moved her arms and felt that it was nothing serious. Then she picked up the Night Pearl and looked at Huo Xiang's face close to him.

Huo Xiang seemed to have difficulty moving. He tried to turn his head to prevent her from looking, but failed.

Then Wanyanjing saw Huo Xiang crying.

After being discovered, he cried even harder, and two obvious marks appeared on his blood-stained face with big tears.

"You...what's the matter with you?"

Wanyanjing's brain was a little slow, and she looked around slowly. They probably fell into a huge hole. The limbs of the corpse soldiers who fell with them were twisted and scattered on the ground, and they fell into pieces in their armor. Staples of mummified corpses.

Looking at the mummy bones leaking out of the armor, Wanyan Jing finally realized what she was thinking.

She felt bad, holding Ye Mingzhu to look at Huo Xiang's body.

Huo Xiang is better than those rotting corpses that were smashed into flesh, but not much better.

His body was half thin, and two corpse soldiers lay overlapped next to him. The armor was stained with cloth soaked in blood and a large amount of fresh flesh and blood.

It is not difficult to imagine that Huo Xiang should have hit the corpse soldier first when he fell, and then climbed down from the corpse soldier.

Those flesh and blood belong to Huo Xiang.

"It hurts so much, Mi..." Huo Xiang choked, his voice was very soft, and you could only hear a little sound if you were very close.

Wanyanjing's heart trembled, and her trembling hands lifted up some of Huo Xiang's clothes.
