Acacia, don't be negative

Chapter 444 Are you okay?
The two looked at each other, as if they could know what the other was thinking, Su Jing said: "It's already here, wouldn't it be a pity not to go in."

So the two of them smeared and walked in a little bit.The farther you go, the stronger the smell of oil is. The road ahead is still dry, but the road behind you feels wet and slippery under your feet. Ye Song squats down, dips his fingers into the liquid, and twists his fingers together. After twisting, said: "The liquid here is all overflowing oil." They walked to the end, and they could still hear the sound of small bundles of liquid flowing, ding dong like a clear spring.

Then Ye Song laughed and said, "It really is God helping me."

She and Su Jing didn't stay in the cave for long, and they retreated out.According to Su Jing's idea, they climbed the vines and convex rocks on the cliff together, and climbed up with difficulty.

While it was still dark, a small group of refined teams ran out of the dark city one after another, carrying wooden barrels and carts, and rushed up the mountain non-stop.After the team arrived, they dropped the long and thick hemp rope and groped down the cliff.

When the sun rises in the east, the rays of the sun burst out, illuminating the sky.Ye Song and Su Jing were in front, leading the refined team, and they returned with a full load.

She passed under the tower on horseback, stood at the gate of the city, reined in the reins, He Chen kicked two steps slightly, and stopped there.Ye Song turned his head and looked to the east, his cold glazed eyes were also quenched by the golden-red light, as if the indestructible light of hope had been rekindled.

Back in Huncheng, Liu Jie stepped forward and said: "The news from the Nanxi army just came, Nan Xirong said that he would only wait for three days, if the prince and the second lady don't go alone within three days, he will lead The army attacked the city."

The oil in Ye Song's hand was very unpleasant. After smelling it all night, she couldn't help feeling a little dizzy.In addition, if he didn't close his eyes all night, even if he didn't go to bed, he would still have bed qi, so after hearing Liu Jie's words, his complexion was not very good.At that time, she was wiping the stains on her hands with a towel, then washed her hands with soap locusts, turned around and threw the oil-stained towel into the brazier.

The fire in the brazier was extinguished at dawn, leaving only faint sparks, and as long as the wind blows, it will be completely extinguished.Unexpectedly, as soon as the towel was touched, it took almost no effort. Those sparks seemed to grab the source of life again, and after brewing for a while, they ignited on the ground.

Ye Song walked past expressionlessly, and said, "Let him wait for three days, only three days." After three days, she will definitely bring Chen Mingguang back.

During the day, the soldiers in the dim city did nothing.As long as it was night, they would secretly go up the mountain, grope down the cliff, and bring out barrels of oil halfway up the mountain. Only a part of it was placed in the dark city, and the rest was transported overnight to the foot of the surrounding mountains and hidden.

This terrain is indeed somewhat unfavorable for Nan Zhen.But Nan Xirong is a conceited person. He thinks that Beixia has no reinforcements now, and only a small number of people are defending Huncheng. It only needs to send a detachment to crush them to death like ants.Although the surrounding area where the army was stationed was surrounded by mountains, there was still some distance between them. It was impossible for the remnants of Beixia's army to pull up such a long line of defense, so there was no need to worry that they would surround the mountains and attack.He only needs to wait for three days on the outskirts of the city, and when the time comes, he will immediately attack the city.

As far as Nan Xirong knows, both Ye Song and Su Jing are people who value love and righteousness, not to mention the relationship between Chen Mingguang and them. , I can't tolerate my general being treated like this by the enemy. This is a great insult and contempt for soldiers and soldiers.

Therefore, Beixia will definitely not sit idly by.Nan Xirong thought that either Ye Song or Su Jing would really go to battle alone.Even if they didn't show up, someone would steal Chen Mingguang's body, so Nan Xirong had already arranged everything.

Su Jing and Liu Jie are right, this is a naked trap.

If Ye Song lost all reason when he first heard the news of Chen Mingguang's death, he might have forced his way in, but now that she has calmed down, Nan Xirong is doomed to fail.

During these three days, Ye Song was not idle either.Except for a short night's rest, she was studying explosives, researching how to blow down an entire mountain with explosives.

No one in the army knew this business, because in Beixia's war history, it was unprecedented to use explosives in war.The explosives at that time were a kind of thing developed by the folks in the Northern Xia Dynasty, and they were not widely used. The only thing that was recognized was the fireworks and firecrackers used for viewing, and the explosives derived from fireworks were mostly used in some sights. Things that don't reach the light.

For example, the time when Ye Qing was taken captive by bandits, both Ye Song and Su Jing still remembered that bandits tried to blow up the cave with explosives.

So Su Jing and Ye Song studied this profound knowledge together.

I don't know how many times, the house bangs and explodes again, billowing with smoke and dust.Liu Jie and the other lieutenants were no longer surprised, they just silently withdrew all the nearby soldiers, leaving them a wider space.

In the house, Ye Song and Su Jing were shaped into clay figurines by the dust falling from the roof. Their bodies were covered with a thick layer of ash, their skin was darker than the bottom of the pot, and their long hair All fried to a crisp and fluffy shape.The only thing that stands out is probably the whites of the two eyeballs.

Ye Song looked at Su Jing's appearance, his eyeballs rolled twice, as if sand had gotten into his eyes, and he was about to rub his eyes, which looked very funny.Ye Song couldn't help laughing, coughed twice, and said, "Sorry, I didn't grasp it well."

Su Jing was not annoyed, she calmly dusted Ye Song and her own, and said, "Anyway, you have never been sure about it."

"Again, try a few more times and you will be successful." Ye Song brushed the dust away casually, continued to place materials, and said while busy, "I used to play with firecrackers, thinking that collecting the dust inside the firecrackers and wrapping them into a bag would Turning it into a very powerful explosive, I never thought it would be so difficult when it looks simple. Fortunately, in this sleepy city, everything is traded for weddings, and firecrackers are all ready-made, so it is enough to toss. If Ye Qing is in , she must be able to do well without much effort..."

When Ye Song said this, he remembered that he hadn't seen Ye Qing for a long, long time, and he hadn't seen his family either.She still doesn't know if she will be able to see them in her lifetime, she really misses home very much.

Ye Song couldn't help remembering that one time, Ye Qing came up with a new gadget to show her, it probably had explosives mixed in the weapon, Ye Qing is simply a weapon wizard, even she can think of that.It's just that, as soon as she demonstrated, before it even started, the contents inside disobeyed her order and exploded by itself, Ye Qing was also very depressed after being blown to dust.

Su Jing suddenly asked: "What are you thinking about so happy?"

When Ye Song thought of those past events, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.Ye Song came back to his senses, and said, "It's nothing, I was just thinking that Ah Qing didn't know everything at first, if you want to accomplish something, you have to go through continuous training and trial before you can succeed in the end. Just like we are now..." At this point, Ye Song turned to look at Su Jing who was busy, and couldn't help but change his face, "What the hell are you doing!"

Su Jing was successfully wrapping several large firecrackers together, and also entangled the fuse, and was opening the firecracker to ignite the fuse.Su Jing turned around and blinked at Ye Song. Even the dirt on his face couldn't hide his smile, and said, "Didn't you say you should try more, this is also a kind of experiment." After finishing speaking, she pulled Ye Song up. Song Fei ran out, "Let's go."

As a result, the two just ran to the door, and before they had time to step out, they heard a deafening loud noise from behind, and then the fire, accompanied by dust and sawdust, swept from behind like a gust of wind.

At that time, it was too late to escape, Su Jing hurriedly pressed the back of Ye Song's head, and fell outside the threshold.

Ye Songzhi felt that there was a buzzing sound in his head and ears, as if hundreds of flies were flying around together.The house behind him couldn't stand the damage one after another, it was crumbling, like an old wooden door, making a creaking sound, and finally came to an end and collapsed.The wooden and stone walls fell into ruins.

Ye Song and Su Jing lay on the ground, and only dared to raise their heads slowly after everything calmed down.Ye Song felt that his ears were blocked, and when he stretched out his hands to dig them out, they were covered with sand and dust, which almost blocked his ears, making him very uncomfortable, so he sat up, tilted his head to one side, stretched out his hand to pat the ear on the other side, and wiped the inside All the sand and dust was poured out, and one was cleaned up, then tilted its head to the other side, and started to toss the other one.

Su Jing also sat up, smiling heartlessly, her whole body was as dirty as if she had crawled around in the stove.He looked at Ye Song tossing about, and felt his ears itchy, so he stretched out his little finger to dig around. There wasn't as much dust as Ye Song.

If those Northern Xia soldiers saw their prince and female general look like this, they would probably drop their jaws.Accumulated prestige will also be wiped out.

Su Jing smiled and asked: "Ah Song, are you okay, sorry, I didn't grasp that speed either."

Ye Song shook his eyelids, rubbed his eyes again, grunted twice, and looked back at Su Jing, only to see Su Jing's mouth opening and closing as if talking, but her brain and ears were buzzing and she couldn't hear anything. Can't help saying: "What are you talking about, speak up, I can't hear you!"

She didn't know, she spoke at the top of her voice, which startled Su Jing.

Su Jing leaned back and looked at Ye Song, then asked in a loud voice, "Are you all right?"

Ye Song picked out his ears again and moved closer.Said: "Make it louder, I still can't hear it! Where are the flies coming from, it makes my ears hurt."
