Genshin Impact, I'm Slime

Chapter 325 Escape
The withered and yellow leaves were blown up by the cold wind and slapped on the eaves of the Qingcezhuang Senate Pavilion, and the dark water drops from the corners of the eaves fell to the ground along the tiles.

In the jungle on the nearby ridge, the weasel eagerly packed up the shiny treasures and shuttled among the wet bushes; the sparrows stopped singing, as if they predicted that the disaster was coming.

The villagers who waited for the news in the pavilion did not know that above their heads, the Qianyan army guarding the watchtower had all died under the iron hooves of the Munata army.

"Village Chief Ruoxin, there seems to be the sound of a trumpet."

The ghost uncle wearing a bamboo hat seemed to sense something, he led Ah Yi to Ruo Xin's side, and asked in a low voice.

Qingcezhuang is surrounded by mountains on all sides, empty in the valley, as long as there is a little noise, the whole valley can be heard clearly.

As the steward of Qingce Village, Grandma Ruoxin certainly understands the meaning of the sound of the horn.

This is the charge horn that the Qianyan Army will only sound when they are at the end of their ropes, symbolizing their courage to never retreat and their determination to defend their homeland.

This also shows that the incoming enemy is so strong that the Qianyan army can only resist with their lives.

The children who were playing in the meeting hall raised their heads and looked around ignorantly, but the black rain formed by the gunpowder smoke dripped into their eyes, and tears flowed from the pain.

The beacon fire on the mountaintop in the distance was also lit.

The wolf smoke drifted extremely fast along the wind, and the already gray sky seemed to become even darker.

The village is full of helpless old people and children. No matter what happens, they have no ability to deal with it.

The elderly Granny Ruoxin tried her best to straighten her back, picked up the crutches leaning against the chair to make herself look more stable, nodded to Uncle Ghost, and announced the evacuation news in a slightly disturbed voice.

"Folks, the Qianyan Army has sounded the warning whistle for the monster invasion."

"Don't be greedy for property, take the children and leave Qingce Village from the terraced field path to Shimen."

The words of the old man spread far away. Although the villagers were flustered, their trust and unity over the years still prompted them to rush home to pack their bags and call their children to leave the land where they were born.

Not long after, the assembled villagers braved the heavy rain and set foot on the muddy path.

The children still didn't understand what happened tonight, so they followed along ignorantly in oversized coir raincoats.

And the old people who have more experience have understood what happened, pulling the naughty children and moving towards the destination in silence.

Standing on the distant mountain peak and looking down, the crowd evacuated from Qingcezhuang looked like a long dragon, walking along the suspension bridge and the cliff, and the lights of the fire appeared dim in the wind and rain.

Grandma Ruoxin stood at the front of the line, kept looking behind her, scolded the naughty children to return to the line, and stared nervously in the direction of the watchtower.

Until a girl in Liyue's traditional costume hurriedly came from the end, followed by a Qianyan Army soldier who was drenched like a drenched chicken.

It was A Zhi, the herbal girl who was sent by Ruoxin to the watchtower to inquire about the news, and Hua Qing, who was ordered to come from the watchtower to deliver the news of the evacuation.

"Grandma Ruoxin, it's not...it's not the invasion of monsters, the enemy..."

Hua Qing covered the girl's mouth in time.

Although it can be determined that it is a light attack by foreign troops, it is better not to let ordinary people know too much at this time.

Hua Qing anxiously came to Grandma Ruoxin's side, whispered Jinglun's last order and the cavalry array he saw, and wanted to determine the evacuation direction for the villagers of Qingcezhuang.

"Foreign army?"

Contrary to Hua Qing's expectation, after hearing the heavy cavalry's attack, Ruo Xin didn't panic and shock as she imagined. Instead, she wiped her rain-stained silver hair and tightly grasped the crutch in her hand.

"The cavalry charge, that kid Jinglun..."

Ruo Xin frowned, and suddenly felt that her eyes were dark, and even Hua Qing who was opposite her couldn't see clearly.

She is old, and her body is no longer used to strenuous exercise. After hearing the sound of the horn, Ruoxin ignored the rainstorm and led the people to evacuate from the Senado to the suspension bridge non-stop. has long since dried up.

"Village Chief Ruoxin! Are you okay?"

Hua Qing hurriedly handed the spear in his hand to Ah Zhi, and reached out to support the village head who had closed his eyes.

"Leave me alone, take the children away first..."

The old man gasped for breath, his lips squirmed and he opened his mouth with difficulty, the tone was mixed with thick phlegm, and the words and sentences were sticky and unclear.

The Qianyan army guarding the watchtower may be in danger, the most important thing now is to evacuate the villagers of Qingce Village in time, so that the flames of war do not spread to the innocent people.

But soon there was the vibration of horseshoes trampling on the ground, and all the evacuated villagers turned their heads to look backward at the same time.

The wave of red cavalry had already approached Qingcezhuang's Senado, they shouted forward, their violent charge seemed to be far away from the villagers, but Ruo Xin could already hear the neighing of the war horses.

Blazing flames rushed to the top of the watchtower.

Wherever the horse's hoof treads, it is scorched earth.

The firelight passed through the mottled tree shadows, and irradiated from the shadows of countless leaves to the incomplete dragon horns in the middle-aged man's hair. The left side of his face, which was traversed by the scars, shone a chilling dark light in the scarlet blood mist.

The leader of the expedition, Vikas.

Famas at the forefront of the array is wearing heavy armor covering his face, holding a knight sword with blood-colored inscriptions in his left hand, and a spear in his right hand. The rolling lava sea seems to be reflected in his bright red pupils, distorting the scorching heat of the air. Teng Teng struck.

"Quick, look, what is that!"

"Cavalry, there are enemies invading Qingce Village!"

I don’t know who shouted and disturbed the hearts of the people. The orderly evacuation team began to riot. People were blinded by fear. Children’s cries and chaotic footsteps resounded in unison.

No one wants to be the innocent soul under the spear of the cavalry. The originally peaceful and peaceful Qingcezhuang was finally polluted by the flames of war.

"Huaqing, take the folks to the suspension bridge on the left!"

"Go to the cave under the waterfall..."

Ruoxin breathed a sigh of relief, and after explaining the retreat direction to Huaqing in a low voice, she immediately began to dissuade the restless villagers and tried to comfort the frightened children. He remained motionless in place.

Fortunately, Ruo Xin's actions finally calmed down the frightened villagers, and the torches were relit. Hua Qing gritted his teeth and picked up the village chief, walked along the suspension bridge on the left, and came to the bottom of a small waterfall. After searching carefully, he finally found Ruo Xin. The cave in my heart.

Outside this cold and damp cave, covered by towering weeds and mottled tree shadows, there are actually several rock statues covered with green moss, and many extinguished torches.

The villagers lifted the dense willow branches and long grass hanging from the cave entrance, stepped on the creaking dead branches, and walked into the depths of the cave along the dark road.
