Immortal Refiner

In the desert of the border, more than 5,000 horse thieves, wrapped in heavy smoke and dust, launched a fierce charge towards the border army camp not far away.

The earth seemed to begin to tremble, and they raised a trail of dust behind them, and everyone had a ferocious and wanton smile on their face.

"Hahaha, kill!"

This group of horse thieves from the grassland are very good at riding and shooting.

Before approaching the border army camp, someone drew his bow and shot a flaming arrow, accurately hitting a tent in the front.

The next moment, a large number of burning arrows shot down from the sky.

In an instant, the entire army camp turned into a sea of ​​fire, with thick smoke billowing up and heat waves coming one after another, like purgatory.

In this chaos, there were also screams in the army camp.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"It's the horse thieves on the grassland, the horse thieves are coming!"

"What?! This is impossible!"

But there were more screams, some people were burned all over, and they kept rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames on their bodies.

However, the flames burning on these arrows were ignited by grease, and once they were contaminated, they were difficult to extinguish.

They never thought that when Captain Yuan Xiao led his troops to the expedition, their side would be attacked by horse thieves.

They also couldn't figure out that the sentries and sentries set up by their Wu Li army along the way did not pass back the news of the horse thieves' attack in time, allowing this group of aggressive horse thieves to rush in openly.

Li Qing was also shocked. He had just filled his stomach in the kitchen and returned to his tent. Before he had time to sit down, he heard the sound of flaming arrows falling.

Then a large number of arrows were shot down, and he was so scared that he almost hid directly in another world.

"How is it possible? There are so many secret and visible sentries along the way, why is there no news coming back? Did they all rebel?" Li Qing said to himself in doubt.

The possibility of all rebelling is very small, basically impossible.

Then there is only one possibility left, that this group of horse thieves knows the locations of all the secret sentries along the way, and then they are all removed neatly.

The army of the court supporting the border is on the way, and it is impossible for them to arrive in time, and the horse thieves attacked at this juncture, and the timing is so clever...

"The border army... There is a traitor!"

Thinking of this possibility, Li Qing shuddered all over, and his scalp was a little numb.

"Run! Run!"

"Go to Wangyuan City, go to Wangyuan City! Run in the direction of Wangyuan City!"

The chaotic exclamations outside reached Li Qing's ears, and he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Run?

Can this escape? The horse thieves all came here on horseback, and the distance between Wangyuan City and the border army camp was at least dozens of miles, so even the speed of the external force masters could not be faster than the horses. ..

The end of fleeing in all directions was most likely a dead end. The road behind was extremely flat, and it was impossible to escape. They could only be sitting ducks.

"Damn, it was too sudden. There was really no sign at all. I didn't have time to prepare!" Li Qing's forehead was covered with drops of cold sweat. He tried his best to calm down and quickly think about what he should do best at the moment.

"Plans can't keep up with changes... Take some food to the polar night world for refuge!" Li Qing gritted his teeth and finally decided to go to the polar night world.

Immediately, he rushed directly to the direction of the granary, ready to bring enough food to eat for a long time.

Many tents were set on fire, but the granary area was the only one that did not burn.

Seeing this scene, Li Qing couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

This group of horse thieves obviously knew the location of the granary, and deliberately avoided this area when shooting arrows.

With such a full grasp of the information, if there was no traitor in the army, Li Qing would chop off his head.

Others fled in panic in the direction of Wangyuan City behind them. No one wanted to pay attention to the status of the granary, and they wanted to run as far as possible.

Li Qing kicked open the closed door of the granary, but before he started to move the grain, he saw a person he didn't expect, or expected.

"Fatty Wu? Why are you still in the granary?" Li Qing was dumbfounded.

A fat and round figure in the granary was sitting on a pile of dried bacon strips, constantly stuffing food into his mouth.

"I... I see there is no fire here, hiding here to avoid the fire..." Wu Chong trembled, and the fat on his face was shaking.

"Stupid, this group of horse thieves came here to rob food, aren't you looking for death if you stay here?" Li Qing shouted loudly.

Wu Chong opened his mouth dully, and then said vaguely: "What should I do? I can't run. Wangyuan City is so far away. I will be caught by those horse thieves before I die of exhaustion."

This fat guy... is clear in his mind, calmer than those soldiers, knowing that two legs can't outrun four-legged horses.

Li Qing couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Before he could say anything, Wu Chong said in despair: "Anyway, I'm going to die anyway, so I might as well be a full ghost here!"

"I eat! I eat eat eat!"

Li Qing suddenly felt a little amused. This guy was still thinking about eating when he was about to die. I really didn't know what to say...

"Fatty, listen to me if you want to live!" Li Qing pulled Wu Chong up, and then he said quickly: "Do you remember where my master is buried?"

"Run to that graveyard now, find a grave to hide in, the bandits won't search there!"

As soon as he said this, Fatty Wu's eyes lit up.

"Yeah, why didn't I think of it?"

Knowing there was a way to survive, Wu Chong's fat body immediately burst out with an unimaginable desire to survive. He stood up and asked: "What about you, why are you still here, let's run together!"

"You go first, I'll follow with some food!" Li Qing patted Fatty Wu's body, signaling him to run fast.

"Well, remember to take more dried meat, don't let those damned horse thieves get away with it!"

After giving the instructions, Fatty Wu's round body, as if he had used all his strength, actually ran very fast and rushed out of the granary.

Then Li Qing seemed to remember something and hurriedly shouted: "Fatty, remember not to go into my master's grave!"

I don't know if Wu Chong heard it or not, Li Qing didn't care so much, he directly carried a large pile of rice and dried meat in the granary, closed his eyes, and started this large-scale transportation operation.

He planned to carry a pile of food that would last for a long time, and then hide in the polar night world for a while, and wait until the storm here passed.
