After the immortal disappeared

On the surface, he scratched the back of his head: "She wants to die, of course she won't let us find out. Hmm? What's on the table?"

There seems to be another ball of paper on the table, which is wet and sticky.

"Look." He Chunhua exhaled a fierce breath, "Hong Chenglue sent another letter."

He Lingchuan opened the paper and took a look. It was indeed the same handwriting as last time:

"I hope my wife's body will be returned."

Reading through the back of the paper, it is obvious that the writer is also filled with depression.

"What are you going to do, dad? Do you want to return it?"

He Chunhua was silent for a while, then waved his hand: "Pay it back."

He Lingchuan responded and was about to withdraw when He Chunhua suddenly asked: "Tell me, why did she do this!"

"I……"

Before He Lingchuan could speak, He Chunhua continued angrily: "It's just a peace talk! If it works, let's talk again if it doesn't work! I don't want her life, nor the life of her man, and I will let her go in three months." She, she is so strong and decisive, why!”

"This should..." He Lingchuan thought for a while, "It has nothing to do with dad, right?"

He Chunhua's eyes widened: "It has nothing to do with me?"

Has nothing to do with him? Then why did Ah Jin choose that time to commit suicide!

"Maybe she doesn't want to drag Hong Chenglue down any more. If she dies, it will be over." He Lingchuan said, "Didn't she tell Hong Chenglue that from now on the sky is high and birds can fly?"

Ah Jin was the rope that tied Hong Chenglue up. When the rope broke, he was truly free.

"Exactly when the peace talks are going on!" He Chunhua's roar spread almost within a two-mile radius, "Exactly when the negotiations are about to be concluded!"

In fact, he knew that Hong Chenglue only brought Dong Rui with him this time instead of the army, so he had the intention of compromising. In other words, He Chunhua's plan was correct and could succeed.

Just a little bit closer, almost a deal!

That woman was deliberately trying to ruin his good fortune.

He Lingchuan was silent.

It was the first time he saw He Chunhua so hysterical, and he was a little surprised.

Dad has always been a humble gentleman with a graceful demeanor.

He Chunhua walked back and forth a few times, as if he had vented half of his anger with a few angry roars.

After a while, he returned to normal and said to his son: "What do you think he can do to make General Zhao lose the battle?"

This was the condition Hong Chenglue negotiated with him. Although it sounded unreliable, He Chunhua couldn't help but have doubts at this time.

That person Hong Chenglue shouldn't be aimless, right?

Just now, they discussed it with Zhao Pan, but to no avail. Zhao Pan laughed and said it was impossible.

"My son doesn't know."

He Chunhua rubbed his temples and said, "General Zhao and I have agreed that the entire battalion will be on heightened alert in the next few days. If you are fine, don't run around."

Now that something has happened, no matter how angry he is, he must be prepared for his opponent's revenge.

"yes."

He Lingchuan exited the tent, placed two torches on the carriage where the body was placed, thought for a moment and put the comb next to Ah Jin's pillow, and then ordered his bodyguard to take the carriage to the edge of the forest and whip the horse's buttocks.

The horse ran into the forest in pain, and soon the light of the torch was extinguished.

After more than ten breaths, even the sound of the horse's hooves tapping disappeared into the darkness.

He Lingchuan looked in that direction for a while, and he knew that Hong Chenglue had already picked up Ah Jin.

The couple was finally reunited.

His face felt cold, a few drops of water fell, and there was a pitter-pattering sound all around.

The rain has come again.

…

Baiming Valley.

There was a blazing fire in the huge cave. Hong Chenglue watched his lover's figure being engulfed by the flames, his face expressionless.

Xunzhou Youqi stood behind him, not daring to say a word.

The fire was not burned out until daybreak.

Hong Chenglue stepped forward to pick up the ashes, put them into a jar and put them away, while whispering softly, as if to comfort her. He wanted to take his wife home and not bury her alone in a foreign country.

Wu Qing was also beside him. There was sweat on his forehead, but he couldn't wipe it off often.

From time to time, he peeked at Hong Chenglue in front of him.

Hong Chenglue put away the urn and suddenly turned to him and said, "I have already taken away Ah Jin's Hanjiu Powder, why does she still have it? Did you give it to her again?"

It's here, there's no way to hide it. Wu Qing didn't care about his body, and knelt down with a plop: "General, I don't understand either! I will report everything she said truthfully!"

The last time Ah Jin asked him for medicine, he even asked him to keep silent. How dare Wu Qing? I turned around and reported it to Hong Chenglue. Hong Chenglue immediately went to Ah Jin and searched for Hanjiu Powder.

Logically speaking, this is all fine.

Hong Chenglue gritted his teeth.

Wu Qing suddenly remembered something and immediately said: "Ah, Madam has taken the elixir given by Imperial Master Shuangye several times. Could it be that she...she can actually move?"

Ah Jin was originally paralyzed from the neck down and could only lift his fingers a few times. Hong Chenglue took her Hanjiu powder and didn't think much about it, because she couldn't put the medicine into her mouth without help.

But after Wu Qing reminded him, he understood.

Grandmaster Shuangye's medicine has taken effect, and she may be able to take action!

So she allowed Hong Chenglue to take most of the Hanjiu Powder and secretly hid a few small pills herself.

Thinking of this, Hong Chenglue's eyes became hot again.

The medicine of Imperial Master Shuangye could really cure her. Her illness was obviously getting better, but she still chose to die in the end!

She paved the way for him with her life!

Wu Qing felt that the murderous aura in Hong Chenglue was getting stronger and stronger, and he was so horrified that he knelt down.

Hong Chenglue stared at the back of his head and resisted the urge to swing the knife.

waste! If this guy hadn't administered the medicine, Ah Jin would still be alive. He clenched his fist hard and then slowly released it, hiding the hatred in his eyes deeply. Wu Qing was a highly valued subordinate of the Shuangye Imperial Master, so he was killed like this. It would be hard to explain to him when he returned to Beijia.

Sweat dripped from Wu Qing's forehead to the ground: "This subordinate has made a big mistake and will never be redeemed by death. Please punish me, General Hong!"

He admitted that he had "made a big mistake", but he definitely did not "kill his wife". Ah Jin's decision to die was her own will.

Hong Chenglue exhaled a long breath: "Remember, I will punish you later. I want you to do something first."

Wu Qing is currently the only link between him and the Bejia Kingdom. He is alone in the rear of the Yuan Army leading the Xunzhou Rangers to cause trouble. The assistance from Nian Zanli and the Bejia Kingdom is particularly important.

"General, please speak!" Wu Qing finally let go of his worries and let him do the work, but he didn't intend to kill him.

"I want to meet with Nian Zanli." Hong Chenglue said coldly, "Go and arrange it. Just tell him that I have a way to help him achieve his goal and land on the south bank of the Han River."

Um? Wu Qing was stunned. Is there such a way?

They had been monitoring Yuan camp for many days. Zhao Pan was very good at running the army and setting up defenses, otherwise the Xunzhou people's march south would not have been blocked north of the Han River.

Now Hong Chenglue said that he could easily break this situation?

"Is there a problem?" Hong Chenglue looked at him without moving.

Wu Qing hurriedly said: "I will do it immediately!" He rushed out regardless of the heavy rain outside the cave.

How to brave heavy rain and floods to contact the other side? The time to test him has come, and it must be done anyway.

At this time, it was better to be in the rain than to stay by Hong Chenglue's side.

…

Five hours later.

Hong Chenglue flew across the turbulent river on Dong Rui's strange bird and reached the Xunzhou camp on the other side.

Although the flood engulfed the south bank first, the people of Xunzhou still cautiously evacuated the north bank, retreating nearly 200 feet.

Fire and water are merciless, and it is not a burden that humans can bear.

Dong Rui's strange bird is not adapted to flying in this kind of weather. Fortunately, it has the help of light body technique, so it can barely fly a short distance.

It landed in front of the Xunzhou camp. Hong Chenglue jumped down and saw that the camp was heavily fortified, which was quite impressive.

As soon as he landed here, several riders rushed out of the camp: "Everyone who comes has a name!"

"flood."

These people gave up a horse, obviously they had received instructions in advance: "General Hong, please, our Lord Nian will wait for you in the tent."

Hong Chenglue mounted his horse and followed. The strange bird shrank in size and became the size of a crow. It stopped on his shoulder and shook its head.

This scene was unusual, and everyone took a second look.

After that, Hong Chenglue was introduced to the Chinese army's tent.

Someone was already looking at the door. Seeing him approaching, they ignored the pouring rain and stepped forward to grab the reins and laughed: "General Hong, you're fine!"

"Mr. Nian, long time no see." Hong Chenglue reached out and gave him a high-five, jumped off the horse, and entered the account together.

This man has a white face and long eyebrows, and is very impressive. His eyebrows are very similar to Nian Songyu. He is exactly Nian Zanli, the former general of Yuan Kingdom who conquered the north.

After he switched to the Northern Demon Kingdom, the Bejia Kingdom still appointed him as the Mu of Xunzhou and the top military and political leader.

As soon as the two sat down, a soldier offered hot tea and dry towels for them to wipe their faces with water.

Nian Zanli said enthusiastically: "Have you eaten yet? We have freshly killed lambs today, they are very tender."

He and Hong Chenglue knew each other before they fought. In the past, he guarded the northern border of the Yuan Kingdom, and Hong Chenglue was the general in command of the Bejia Kingdom. They led their troops to fight against each other on the border, and he suffered a loss.

When Wu Qing heard that Hong Chenglue requested a meeting, he took it seriously.

Hong Cheng took a sip of hot tea and said, "Thank you, but no need. I took the liberty of coming to see Mr. Nian to discuss something."

This guy is really straightforward. Nian Zanli raised his eyebrows, and heard Hong Chenglue continue: "Zhao Pan across the way has received 10,000 shi of military rations. The person who led the Xiazhou grain transport team to the front line was the new Xiazhou general manager He Chunhua. Mr. Nian knows this news. What?"

The smile on Nian Zanli's face slowly faded: "I heard about it."

He Chunhua has been at the front line for several days. He had a son-killing grudge against this man, which gave him another reason to kill Yuan's army and pacify Xiazhou.

"Master Nian has been confronting Zhao Pan on the north bank of the Han River for nearly two months. Do you have any plans for a general attack?"

There was a faint hint of revolt in these words, and Nian Zanli pretended not to hear it: "It was originally scheduled for the end of the flood season. Zhao Pan spent all his time on defense, neither going out lightly nor advancing rashly. He didn't even eat the bait thrown to him. Just build a stronghold and garrison."

Combined with the natural chasm of Hanhe River, it is indeed difficult for him to attack the south bank.

He paused and said, "But the Yuan army has flaws. It lacks food and clothing all day long and is struggling to survive. If we survive a little longer, we may be able to take it lightly." Nian Zanli knows better than anyone else how rotten the Yuan Kingdom is inside. No matter how powerful Zhao Pan is, there are many monarchs and ministers holding him back. The logistics supply of the Yuan Army has always been a big flaw. In terms of protracted war, the advantage lies with me.
