From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 52 Rebirth 17 years old

The hairpin tied around her neck before King Huai of Chu pulled out the plum heart without hesitation pierced into her heart. In the blink of an eye, Cheng Sichu, who was still dreaming of a princess, died.

Before she died, her eyes were full of horror and disbelief, as if she never thought that her biological father would kill her, and she never thought that one day she would end up with Mei Xin and die at the hands of her closest relatives. hand.

Mei Xin heard it, but she quickly lost consciousness, lost any consciousness, and died!
The 15th year of Jinghe, Liangzhou, September, autumn!
In Liangzhou, on Qiming Mountain, fifty miles outside Shangyang City, a group of beaten and defeated soldiers were marching in a hurry through the mountains and forests with their hunched bodies.

The darkness covered their whereabouts, but because of this, the temperature difference between day and night was large. It was already a breezy autumn in September, and the drops of water turned into ice. The frozen people's faces were red and shivering, but if they were not running for their lives at this moment, they really wanted to stop. Build a fire to keep warm.

Walking in the front and leading the battle were two female soldiers in black armor. They were handsome but not very old.They brushed aside the thorns and vines under their feet with the sabers in their hands, while vigilantly watching the movement around them.

It was midnight, and they had been chased into the mountain by the enemy for almost four hours.He didn't eat or drink for four hours, and didn't stop for a moment in between. He just kept running, circling, hiding, and hiding, but he still couldn't get rid of the pursuers behind him.

Exhausted and cold, the string in my heart was also tensed.However, they are the Mei family army, the Mei family soldiers forged with iron and blood, none of them will give up until the last moment, let alone leave the major general to escape alone.

"San Niang, the major general is unconscious, you must stop and take a look, otherwise something bad will happen, and you and I will die." Luo Qiu, who was carrying the major general on his back, said in a low voice hastily.

It had been more than half an hour, Major General Mei Xin lay on her back, but she didn't respond at all, and she could clearly feel that she was not well, she was exhaling more, but not inhaling.

Sanniang, a major general's personal soldier, is also very anxious, but the enemy is chasing after him, how can they stop?Besides, although the forest is dense here, it is not a place to rest. If they are overtaken by the pursuers, they will definitely not be able to escape.

However, she couldn't ignore the major general, let alone her life.So looking around and thinking about it, Sanniang lowered her voice and said: "Wait a minute, the scout reported that there is a cave in front, I'll go and discuss with Yuan Ying to see if we can divide the soldiers into two ways to divert the pursuers."

Raising her hand to touch Mei Xin's forehead, it was very hot, Sanniang knew that she really couldn't wait any longer, if she waited any longer, Mei Xin would die before the enemy caught up.

Luo Qiu nodded and supported Mei Xin to carry her back up, then walked briskly forward, while Sanniang turned around and walked back.

Yuan Ying is Mei Xin's lieutenant general, in charge of breaking the queen, and after San Niang found him, the two had a discussion.

In the end, the two of them decided to divide their troops into three groups, and Yuan Ying led people to continue to move forward to contain the enemy.The other way is to go in the opposite direction to confuse the enemy, and the third way is for her, Luo Qiu and Dou Ko to rest and check the injuries in the cave with the major general on their backs, and meet up in the dense forest halfway up the mountain half an hour later.

After agreeing on the route, Cardamom replaced Luo Qiu, and the three of them hid in the cave with Mei Xin on their backs.

The cave is very big, but the entrance is so small that only one person can pass through.As soon as Sanniang and the others stepped in, the eerie and eerie wind rushed towards their faces with a fishy smell and an inexplicable smell. The dense and opaque moss in the gaps between the stone walls resembled the eyes of wolves, and Youlu was very familiar with ghosts. .

Luo Qiu was timid and always afraid of ghosts, and his clothes were already wet by the late night dew. When the wind blew, his hair stood on end and he trembled all over. He stiffened and said, "Dou... cardamom, that's a wolf... yes Wolf?"

His voice was trembling, his whole body was trembling, he turned around and wanted to run, but his legs were weak, subconsciously, Luo Qiu grabbed the corner of Dou Kou's clothes and leaned towards her unconsciously.

The green light was shimmering and dim, and Cardamom was also apprehensive, but she knew she couldn't run, and instead of running, she pretended to be calm and stood where she was.Wolves are not ordinary beasts, they are intelligent and brainy.And as long as they move, they will immediately pounce and bite.

One o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, four o'clock...

There were green lights scattered everywhere in the cave, and if the faint green lights were really the eyes of wolves, then they undoubtedly broke into the wolf's den.

It's really bad luck to break into the wolf's den before leaving the tiger's mouth.However, no matter how hard you carry it, you have to get through it, no matter what, you must protect Mei Xin and bring her back safely.

Sanniang was the last to come in and stood behind them, so she took out the dagger from her body lightly and said: "The hole is small, only the next person can pass through, cardamom, you carry the major general behind me, I will He and Luoqiu cover you to go."

Regardless of whether it is an enemy or a wolf, the two armies must not lose their morale in the confrontation, and once they show timidity, they will be eaten and become their meal.

Quietly, she stepped forward to Luoqiu's side silently, and forced the dagger in her hand to her. Sanniang said in a low voice, "Now is not the time to be afraid. No matter what, we must protect the major general to leave. Luoqiu, I am in front, you Behind, cover the cardamom and go."

As Mei Xin's personal soldier and someone who grew up with her, Sanniang is ready to sacrifice at any time.Therefore, she has no time to be afraid, and the current situation does not allow her to be afraid.

Luo Qiu is not afraid of death, but she is really afraid of wolves. She was bitten by wolves when she was a child, which left a serious psychological shadow.Clenching the dagger tightly and trembling uncontrollably, Luo Qiu took several deep breaths.

The blood on the cheek went up and reflected a blood red, but under the blood red was pale white.Unable to restrain herself from holding the dagger again, she said as if death was at home: "Okay, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, I'll fight them, I'll fight them. Ah..."

With a scream, the terrified Luo Qiu rushed towards those faint green lights, waving the dagger in his hand.Stretching out the head is a slash, retracting the head is also a slash, sooner or later you will have to fight with them, and you simply go all out: "I will kill you, I will kill you."

As if to embolden himself, Luo Qiu yelled while running, waving the dagger in his hand while yelling.

Sanniang knew that she was very scared, but she didn't expect to be so scared.And it was agreed that he would be in the front and she would be in the back, but when he thought of her, he rushed out desperately.

Seeing Luoqiu who turned fear into courage and killed him, Sanniang was shocked and her eyes were full of astonishment.However, that was only for a moment, and she followed immediately after a moment.

"Doumo, hurry up and take the major general." She raised her leg and jumped, and then she jumped, but her foot slipped and Sanniang fell, and with a plop, no one could see her.

Cardamom, who was about to turn around and leave, had an ashen-colored face, and blurted out with an exclamation: "Sanniang!"

Instinctively, she wanted to go up to help and check her injuries, but she had no time, she had to take the opportunity to take Mei Xin out as quickly as possible, and take her out of the cave.

It was too late to say it, but it was so fast, the thought of helping me just flashed in my mind, and Cardamom left.But just as she stood outside the entrance of the cave, Sanniang's hearty laughter came from the cave, and then she only heard: "Luoqiu, you are blind, what kind of wolf is that, this is moss."

Picking off a piece of moss and throwing it to Luoqiu, Sanniang was angry and funny.Then he got up and took out the fire folder he was carrying with him and said, "Come back, cardamom, it's not a wolf, it's moss."

After the words fell, he blew two breaths lightly, and the fire was lit.

Hearing the sound, Luoqiu almost instinctively caught it. Seeing that the green light in his hand turned out to be moss, he said with lingering fear: "This is really in line with what the Major General often said, all plants are soldiers, all plants are soldiers."

As soon as the heart relaxed, the fear in the eyes immediately faded away, replaced by joy.Limp on the ground feebly, not caring whether it was dirty or not, Luo Qiu smirked and shook his head, feeling that he was really too nervous.And they obviously forgot that the cave scouts had already come in to inquire, if there were wolves who had already reported back, they would have let their sheep fall into the wolf's mouth.

Without saying a word, Cardamom smiled, and with Mei Xin on her back, she went back into the cave and said, "Luoqiu can't be blamed, the cave is really too dark, and she's afraid of wolves, so it's normal to be wrong for a while."

Luo Qiu's temperament was always blah, blah, blah, blah, and it wasn't the first time they were frightened.Therefore, as time goes by and the number of times increases, it is normal to see strange things.

Standing up and lighting it with a torch, San Niang came to Dou Kou, carefully took Mei Xin and hugged her to a fairly clean boulder and said, "I'm too nervous, otherwise how could I separate the wolf from the moss?" I don’t know. It’s been four hours, and my heart has been tense, like a drawn bowstring, and the slightest touch will destroy everything.”

"Me too, I'm dizzy from hunger, and my eyes are blurry." Rubbing his flat stomach, Luo Qiu got up and sat next to Mei Xin: "I want to eat steamed buns, and I want to eat meat, fat meat is fine. "

The hungry chest is pressed against the back, and seeing the fat is like seeing the fall of arsenic, drooling.

"Didn't you say that you would rather starve to death than eat fatty meat? Why do you want to eat it now?" Cardamom looked at her and shook her head, then picked some branches to block the hole.

Mei Xin was stabbed in the arm when killing the enemy, then hit her head against a tree and a stone and fell unconscious.Luo Qiu sat down and calmed down, opened the water bag he was carrying with him, and while carefully feeding her water, he sighed helplessly and said, "I'm hungry, I've been running all day, and I'm worried, don't say it's fat now." It's gone, the water is almost gone. I'm really worried about the Major General like this..."

Realizing that the next words were a bit ominous, Luo Qiu stopped.San Niang gently shook Mei Xin's arm and said, "Young General, wake up, Major General...wake up, Major General..."

Originally, she didn't have any hope, after all, no one knew how hard the fall was, but Mei Xin miraculously opened her eyes.

She was at a loss, and everything in front of her was strange to Mei Xin. Seeing Sanniang who was already dead, she couldn't help but said in a daze, "Sanniang? Luoqiu, you, Doukou...even you are dead too?"

Her eyes were red and her sockets were wet in an instant, Mei Xin thought that Luo Qiu and Dou Kou would escape, but she thought they were dead too.

That's right, who can escape such a well-planned plan, she herself is dead, let alone her soldiers.

Luo Qiu, who had never seen Mei Xin cry before, was taken aback, shook her head violently and replied: "No, no, Major General, we are not dead, we are not dead, the enemy is still chasing us."

"Enemy?" Mei Xin was stunned, she looked around involuntarily, seeing that she was actually in a gloomy cave at this moment, her heart was horrified and her face was terrified.

what happened?She was obviously killed by her own mother, so how could there be pursuers?

And this is where, where are the pursuers?
Seeing Mei Xin's confused face, as if she had lost her memory and couldn't remember anything, Sanniang frowned deeply, she was puzzled, and she opened her mouth and said: "The young general forgot, the big general was trapped, the young general received the news and took me to wait We came to the rescue, but we fell into the enemy's trap. Now those Tartars are chasing us all over the mountain."

With a thunderclap on the ground, Mei Xin was frightened and frightened. She sat up suddenly and said, "What did you say? General, Tartar, this is Liangzhou?"

She was clearly asking, but her tone was affirmative, and then she subconsciously looked around the cave again.

It was very familiar, especially the smell of the tiger's urine made her tremble all over.If she remembers correctly, this cave should be the cave she hid from when she was 17 years old.

General Mei is her father, the Mei family has guarded Liangzhou for generations, and she grew up in Liangzhou.He practiced martial arts at the age of three, entered the military camp with his father at the age of eight, and formally joined the army at the age of 12. He started as a soldier, and within five years, he was promoted step by step to the third rank of General Zhaoyong with his military achievements.And because she is the daughter of General Mei, everyone calls her Major General.

The question "Is this Liangzhou?" Sanniang and the others were stunned.Humming and screaming that it was not good, Dou Ko touched Mei Xin's forehead and sat down next to her and said, "It's very hot, it should be burnt."

"No, the Major General broke his head and got a big bag." Luo Qiu exclaimed as he pointed at the back of Mei Xin's head.

Sanniang looked at it, touched it back and forth, and said sharply: "Nonsense, the major general just got burnt out, he broke his head there, don't talk nonsense."

Mei Xin is no better than others, she is a general in the army, if she breaks her head and spreads the word, the morale of the army will be messed up.Besides, this matter can be big or small, San Niang hurriedly reprimanded and then said: "Okay, wait a while for the enemy to pass, I will find some herbs, and the fever will be gone. Major general, you can drink some water .”

Sanniang has worked as a military doctor for a few years and knows herbal medicines, but she is in the dark right now, and she doesn't know if she can find them yet.However, Mei Xin's appearance is indeed worrying, even if she can't find the herbal medicine, she still has to think of a way, otherwise she will have something wrong, and they really can't atone for their sins even if they die.

Luo Qiu saw that Mei Xin's eyes were straightened as if she was in a daze, she couldn't help feeling a little worried, she reached out and shook her hand in front of her eyes and said, "Major General...Major General, what's wrong with you, you..."

Noisy footsteps could be heard beside her ears, Mei Xin covered Luo Qiu's mouth and said in a low voice, "Don't talk, the pursuers are coming up."

Sanniang was startled, and hurriedly covered the fire cover.It wasn't long before Yuanying left, it seemed that these people were really chasing after her very closely.

Because the night was as dark as ink, and the entrance of the cave was covered up again, the pursuers did not find their traces.After about a cup of tea, the footsteps gradually faded away, Mei Xin let go of Luo Qiu's hand and said solemnly: "The Tartars are chasing so closely, someone must have missed their tracks."
