Chapter 387 The Return
It has been more than a month since the end of Wang Xiang's Lingnan battle, Li Zhi has been forcibly taken back to Chang'an by Li Shimin, and Wu Shun is still guarding the pass wall every day.

The Jiayuan base is already facing the dilemma of running out of food. In the past few days, Zhao Jun has begun to control the distribution of food and even went to other bases to buy a large amount of mutated food for emergencies. However, these are not long-term solutions.

Lei Fu and the others had just returned from hunting mutant creatures, and the first thing they did after returning to the base was to visit Wang Xiang in the basement warehouse.

"are you awake?"

Asked habitually, Liu Qingqing and Li Rujuan, who were guarding Wang Xiang, shook their heads. Lei Fu took out an amethyst that was just hunted today and prepared to replace it with Wang Xiang, but suddenly found that the amethyst in his palm was still intact. Now, the color has not changed at all, that is to say, the energy has not been absorbed.

Just when she felt strange, she suddenly noticed that Wang Xiang's eyelids moved slightly.

"His eyelids seem to have moved!" Liu Qingqing exclaimed, obviously seeing this little reaction, Li Rujuan hurried forward to take a closer look.

Wang Xiang felt that he had slept for a long time. When he opened his eyes, he met the excited and concerned eyes of Li Rujuan and Liu Qingqing. Although Lei Fu looked cold, his eyes were clearly filled with excitement. Jiayuan Base won’t be able to last long if she doesn’t wake up. Although she will live well in any survivor base as a person with strength and talent, but he already likes Jiayuan Base. There is no other base here. There are distinct levels, and everyone seems to live in the previous world.

"You finally woke up."

Hearing Lei Fu's words, Wang Xiang was slightly taken aback. He lowered his head and checked his chest. The bandage had been removed long ago, and the wound on his chest had completely healed without leaving any scars. This is the strong recovery ability of a capable person.

The short spear pierced my heart and I didn't die. It seems that the capable person is really an unbeatable Xiaoqiang. Wang Xiang sighed secretly and asked, "How long have I been in a coma?"

Lei Fu said lightly: "You have been in a coma for more than a month, and the base will run out of food if you don't wake up."

"It's been so long!" Wang Xiang was taken aback when he heard Lei Fu say that, he thought he had just been in a coma for a few days, and now he was worried about what happened to Lingnan.

Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to go back and take a look, and said, "Can you go out first?"

Lei Fu chuckled lightly and said, "Just after waking up, you thought about going back to the Tang Dynasty?"

Wang Xiang froze, and Li Rujuan next to him quickly explained: "After you passed out, your father and I told them about your ability to travel through the Tang Dynasty."

They naturally meant Lei Fu and Liu Qingqing, Wang Xiang smiled awkwardly: "I wanted to find a chance to tell you in person, but I was just afraid that you would think I was..."

"A lunatic?" Leif shook his head and said, "We have all accepted it in the last days, what can't we accept? How did you get injured? Could it be that people in ancient times were stronger than those with abilities?"

Wang Xiang raised his hand and said, "I'll explain this to you later, I'm going back to check the situation now."

Since everyone present knew the secret that he could travel through the Tang Dynasty, Wang Xiang didn't need to hide it. As soon as he finished his words, he returned to the Tang Dynasty with a thought, leaving the three of them looking at each other. This must be too impatient.

How could Wang Xiang not be in a hurry? When he left Datang, when Tubo officially stormed the Lingnan pass, it had been more than a month. The war must have ended long ago. He didn't know the current situation in Lingnan.

Returning to Datang is the place where he disappeared from Datang. After the First Battle of Lingnan, the reinforcements brought by Cheng Yaojin arrived and immediately strengthened the defense of the pass. At this time, the number of defenders on the city wall was twice as large as before. More than that, Wang Xiang suddenly appeared out of thin air and caused a commotion. When it was clear that the person who appeared was Jiayuan Hou who had been missing for a long time, some of the defenders quickly shouted: "Hurry up and inform Mr. Zhang and Old General Cheng, Jiayuan Hou is back!"

Seeing the situation on the city wall, Wang Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Tubo was still beaten back.

It was in the evening at this time, Zhang Cheng and Cheng Yaojin were eating in the border town, when they heard the report from the defenders, they quickly dropped their bowls and chopsticks and ran towards the city wall, while Zhang Cheng followed Cheng Yaojin, he turned his head and explained to the soldiers Said: "Go and inform Mrs. Hou Ye."

Wu Shun had just come down from the city wall to eat, and when he heard the news of Wang Xiang's return, he burst into tears of joy.

Naturally, Wang Xiang couldn't avoid Cheng Yaojin's cross-examination, all because he was in a coma and didn't know what happened, but Cheng Yaojin didn't believe it, but he couldn't help it, so he could only hate it.

"Uncle Cheng was worried about you for so long, and almost led the army to invade Tubo directly, but you still hide it from me."

Knowing that Wang Xiang was in the wrong, he had to apologize, and Wu Shun was completely relieved when he saw that Wang Xiang was really fine, and sent people back to Xunzhou to report to Xiao Luoli, Wang Steward and others.

When Zhang Cheng came to his senses, he asked people to prepare a banquet, and at the same time, he arranged for an urgent report from Babaili to report to Chang'an.

During the meal, Wang Xiang learned about the battle situation that day from Zhang Cheng. After hearing that more than a dozen strange people died in Tubo, he asked, "Where are their bodies?"

Wang Xiang, who appeared in Datang, has always had a feeling that they are very similar to the ability users in the last days, so he wants to confirm it.

Zhang Cheng didn't know what Wang Xiang was thinking, so he asked puzzledly, "Corpse?" He actually talked about corpses during the meal, Lord Hou's thoughts were indeed different from ordinary people.

Seeing Wang Xiang nodding his head, Zhang Cheng said, "Of course they are all buried. If they are piled up outside the city, it will easily cause plague."

"Where is it buried?"

Seeing that the eyes of everyone looking at him were not right, Wang Xiang also knew that it was inappropriate to talk about it during the meal, so he stopped talking about it with a dry laugh, but after the meal, he asked Zhang Cheng to take him to the place where the Tubo strange man was buried.

The treatment of strange people is different from that of ordinary soldiers. Ordinary soldiers just dig a big pit and bury them all together. The treatment of strange people is much better. Being shrouded in horse leather and buried alone is also a kind of respect for the strong.No one can say for sure what happened on the battlefield. Perhaps the person who will die tomorrow will be me. Therefore, although both sides fight to the death on the battlefield, both sides will treat the soldiers who died in battle with more respect after the war.

The soldiers' corpses were buried in the ground five miles away from the pass. If it hadn't been for what Zhang Cheng said, Wang Xiang would never have thought that tens of thousands of corpses were buried in the seemingly flat ground. These are really the corpses left by a battle. , Lingnan Pass is an important border area. I don’t know how many wars, large and small, have occurred in history. The number of corpses buried here may far exceed this number.
