Start with a red name

After hearing Zha Luo's reminder, Geng Xuan was actually a little surprised.

"Are you worried that once they notice the changes here, they will flee and bring me more powerful enemies?"

Geng Xuan asked casually, and couldn't help but think in his heart that this seemed to be a good idea.

"If I don't go to the mountains, the mountains will come to me." Isn't this his usual style?
There is no need to travel all over Kyushu and fight all powerful enemies.

As long as he stays in this small corner, powerful enemies from all directions will rush towards him like moths to a flame.

This saved him a lot of trouble.

But to Geng Xuan's surprise, this was not what Zha Luo was worried about.

He just shook his head and said:

"The forces that Dong Guan has transferred to Yuanzhou this time are not many. With the death of the old master in your hands, they can no longer pose a threat to you."

"Oh, why is that?" Geng Xuan asked with raised eyebrows.

Zha Luo did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked around. Then, kneeling on the ground, he took a few steps forward and came to Geng Xuan.

Then he lowered his voice and quickly recounted the whole story.

Soon, Geng Xuan, who had seemed a little careless, suddenly widened his eyes.

Zha Luo spoke briefly, and many of his words were not logically coherent.

Even if someone else hears it, it is difficult to immediately string it together.

But it just so happens that Geng Xuan is one of the people who can string it all together.

Geng Xuan was shocked and looked at Zha Luo seriously, saying:
"Why do you know these things so clearly?"

Zha Luo said:
“Because the old master was also involved in a lot of things, and I basically know everything he was involved in.

Even if you don’t know it at the time, you will know it later.”

Geng Xuan stared at Zha Luo and said slowly, "So, I can't let you know too much in the future."

An expression of grievance immediately appeared on Zha Luo's ugly face.

Geng Xuan's mind was already full of thoughts.

After a while, it was the various information that Zha Luo had just revealed.

After a while, it was the special features of this group of people headed by Zha Luo.

"Owner."

Zha Luo's gentle call woke Geng Xuan up. He stared at Zha Luo, but he had already made up his mind.

Slowly said: "I want to let you handle this matter... Can you do it well?"

It hasn't been that long since he took action.

The cavalry team patrolling outside may have discovered the drastic changes in Qingyuanji, or they may not have discovered it yet.

Regardless of whether it is discovered or not, it is most appropriate to let Zha Luo handle it under the premise that Geng Xuan himself cannot leave.

Of course, the premise is that Zha Luo has no other intentions.

Otherwise, Geng Xuan's actions would be tantamount to letting go of the "fat sheep" that he had already caught.

However, when Geng Xuan thought about the strange "ripples" emitted by Zha Luo and the people behind him, Geng Xuan felt that this was worth a try.

Zha Luo didn't seem to think about it at all, and didn't ask, "Are you so confident in letting me leave? Aren't you afraid that I'll run away?"

He nodded happily and said, "Master, please rest assured. Zha Luo will complete the task!"

Then he added, "I want to take nine more people with me, is that okay, Master?"

Geng Xuan nodded, "You choose."

So Zha Luo stood up, quickly picked out nine people from the twenty-four behind him, and said, "All of you follow me."

Soon, the ten riders led by Zha Luo rushed out of Qingyuanji and headed quickly towards the east of Qingyuanji.

Watching Zha Luo and the others go away, Geng Xuan's eyes fell on the other fifteen people who were still kneeling in front of him, and said, "You all should stand up too."

"Yes, Master."

After the fifteen people responded in unison, they all stood up and strode to stand behind Geng Xuan.

Geng Xuan felt a little uncomfortable when there were suddenly a group of wooden stakes behind him.

However, he ignored them for the time being, and turned his gaze to look at the nearly one hundred other riders not far away.

Because of Zha Luo's "interruption", neither the three riders on his side who were preparing to throw, nor the nearly one hundred enemy riders who were surrounded in the middle, attacked or fled, but were all paying attention to what was happening here with Geng Xuan.

Geng Xuan himself no longer had the heart to continue killing, so he directly asked the nearly 100 riders:

"What do you say?"

There was silence.

Suddenly, there was a muffled "bang" sound.

One of them threw the long-handled axe to the ground, took off his helmet and held it in his hands, exposing his entire head, and shouted:

"I surrender!"

His action was like the first ray of firewood being lit.

Soon, the sound of weapons falling to the ground could be heard.

"I surrender!"

"I surrender."

"surrender."

"cast……"

Loud, calm, depressed, wooden...

From the speaker's tone, you can clearly discern his or her current emotions.

But at this moment, they all expressed the same meaning.

surrender.

In a very short time, the remaining enemy cavalry, which were less than a hundred, all made the same decision.

Geng Xuan's eyes quickly swept across the faces of these people.

Although, he could not tell from their appearance whether they were from Xuanyou Province, Yuanjing Xu Family, or Anleji Wu Family.

But you can tell them apart with just a glance.

These people were all what he tacitly referred to as the "people of Jiuzhou", which were also what Dong Guan called "the innate noble race and descendants of the Five Emperors".

After all these people abandoned their weapons and armor and dismounted from their horses, Geng Xuan ordered his own riders to assign some to guard these people.

"You guys go too."

Geng Xuan gave instructions to the fifteen "wooden stakes" behind him.

"Yes, Master."

After the fifteen men respectfully accepted the order, they immediately jumped on their mounts and, together with their own riders, surrounded the surrendered soldiers who had abandoned their weapons and armor.

Among them are many former comrades who previously served for the "Giant Bear".

Although those who surrendered had wooden expressions on their faces, for Geng Xuan, who had mastered the art of "physiognomy" to the master level, the changes in their emotions were as clear as reading the lines on the palm of his hand.

Many people have feelings of resentment and contempt in their hearts.

After all the marrow-refining combat forces left, of the 166 cavalrymen who followed Geng Xuan, more than 60 were arranged by Geng Xuan to escort the surrendering enemy cavalry, and the other 100 were arranged by Geng Xuan to the front line of the battle.

These people had not yet fully entered the battlefield, but they were throwing their spears one by one into the areas where enemy soldiers were densely packed, reaping deaths like sickles.

This became the final weight that crushed the enemy.

A hysterical, almost venting-style fight cannot last long after all.

The enemy soldiers were constantly being separated, and their overheated minds "woken up" again in the fierce fighting and physical fatigue.

They discovered that the number of their companions still fighting tenaciously was decreasing, while the number lying on the ground was increasing.

However, the number of enemies around them was increasing, and each of them had a terrifying look of excitement and greed in their eyes, as if they regarded them as delicious delicacies.

The fighting spirit in my heart dropped instantly.

The alert ones even discovered that the cavalry battle in the distance had already ended.

The few remaining cavalry on our side had all surrendered, abandoned their weapons and armor, and were being guarded by fully armed cavalry.

This scene immediately inspired smart people.

"Surrender, surrender, I want to surrender!" someone was the first to shout.

He no longer fought with several enemies who were staring at him as if he were a delicious meal, but turned around and ran.

While trying his best to avoid the angry chase of several people behind him, he shouted "I want to surrender".

Soon, more people were inspired by him, and more cries of "I surrender" were heard from various warring areas.

……

For several days in a row, under the high-pressure guidance of "Teacher Xiong", Hong Quan, Jiang Hongyi and others, who were in great pain and under tremendous pressure, experienced the pleasure of "bullying" for the first time.

After the enemy lost their commanding brain, they, who had poor command ability, suddenly realized that they had become the "God of War".

They are like players controlling "snakes". The enemy soldiers who are constantly divided and scattered into a group are the "nutrients" that allow these "snakes" to grow and progress.

All they have to do is control these "snakes" and eat up the "nutrients" in the most efficient way.

They were completely immersed in it until the shouts of "I surrender" numbered into hundreds and echoed throughout the battlefield, which woke the two of them up.

"What...what's that sound?!" Jiang Hongyi's voice was filled with doubt and surprise.

"Well...it seems like some enemy soldiers want to surrender?!" Hong Quan's expression changed unpredictably.

The two people who realized it later looked at each other, and a voice sounded in their hearts at the same time.

broken!

Overplayed!

There is another military order that was forgotten!

Soon, a new military order, centered around Jiang Hongyi and Hong Quan, first spread to the entire "Linzhan Hall" and then to every corner of the battlefield.

[Surrender and you will be spared death, surrender your weapons and you will not be killed! ]

[Surrender and you will be spared death, surrender your weapons and you will not be killed! ]

【…】

As this military order spread everywhere like the wind, those figures who were desperately fighting the enemy while shouting "surrender" immediately threw away their weapons and fell to the ground in groups like weeds in the wind.

For those who are still fighting, the pressure they are under is increasing rapidly, and the casualties are increasing rapidly.

As a result, more people laid down their weapons and surrendered.

Just like that, the flames that seemed to have burned the entire Qingyuan Collection to ashes were extinguished at an incredible speed.

……

A battlefield far away from the central area.

"Surrender and you will be spared death, surrender your weapons and you will not be killed!"

When they finally heard the heavenly shout coming from afar, a ranger who had been stabbed several times in the back, with the most serious wounds deep enough to reveal the bone, showed a look of relief at having survived the calamity.

He threw the broken knife in his hand far away, clasped his hands behind his head, and lay directly on the ground, shouting loudly: "I surrender, I surrender!"

Among the four people chasing him, one of them looked sullen and stopped.

One person looked at the battle achievements that were so close to him, feeling regretful and angry.

Each of them looked at the broken and bent sword in his hand, then looked at the warrior lying on the ground, shouting surrender and waiting to be slaughtered, with hesitation and struggle on his face.

At this moment, a hand suddenly pressed on the palm of his sword, and a calm face shook his head silently at him.

Seeing this, the hesitation and struggle on the man's face gradually disappeared, and his hand gradually moved away from the hilt of the sword.

At this moment, a cold light flashed from the side.

A flying knife instantly pierced into the temple of the ranger on the ground.

The voice that had been holding his hands behind his head and shouting "I surrender" suddenly stopped.

The four of them were stunned when they saw this.

Then, one by one, their faces were filled with anger, with cold light flashing in their eyes, and they looked in the direction where the flying knife came from.

About ten steps away, they saw a man who was wearing a red headband just like them, looking at them with a look that was somewhat smug, yet somewhat wary.

Seeing this, the four of them became furious at the same time.

The swordsman who originally wanted to make a finishing move but gave up because his companions stopped him, with a "clang", shook out the broken and bloody long sword and rushed towards the man.

Seeing this, the man quickly reached into his waist and took out a flying knife, holding it in his hand. He quickly stepped back while pretending to be panicked and shouting:

"What, what, what are you doing?
Killing a comrade is a capital crime!"

The man who chased with a sword was ultimately unable to catch up.

Because the man who had just tried to stop him grabbed him tightly again.

The figure who held him had a calmer face than the others. He did not chase after him, but just looked at the man who was retreating quickly and said:
"Don't you know that disobeying military orders is also a capital crime?"

When the man saw that they were no longer chasing him, he stopped and said with a bewildered look on his face:
"Disobeying military orders? What military orders did I disobey? Wasn't I just killing the enemy?

...Oh, you are not angry that I stole your military achievements?
But there is no military order saying that if you kill half-dead enemies, the others cannot move and can only be killed by you, right?"

After hearing such provocative words, the fire in the sword-wielding man's heart burned again.

If his companion had not held his wrist tightly, according to his usual temper, he would have rushed up without caring about anything and fought the other party to the death.

His companion was not distracted by the other party's words. There was not even any emotion in his words. He said calmly:

"Don't play dumb. I'm talking about you killing prisoners."

"Killing prisoners? Did I?"

The man looked bewildered. He glanced at the cold body of Ranger, whose temple had been stabbed. He said in disbelief:
"Is he your prisoner? This... I don't know, and no one told me."

"He kept shouting surrender, didn't you hear him?"

"Ah? Really? I didn't hear it.

...You have seen this. I used a flying knife. The distance was a bit far, and the battlefield was so noisy.

There were more than a hundred people shouting surrender, how could I tell them apart? "

The man throwing the knife looked innocent.

The man who always kept a calm face looked at him and suddenly said:
"Didn't you notice that the distance between us is now farther than when you threw the flying knife just now.

And my voice was no louder than his shout of 'surrender.'"

The man with the flying knife's expression changed instantly, and then he said in confusion: "Ah? What are you talking about? ...Why can't I hear what you are saying?"

At this moment, a deep voice sounded from behind the man with the flying knife.

"Knife."

The man with the flying knife suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face. He turned his head and saw two people walking towards him.

One of them was sturdy with a kind face, and the other held a long knife dripping with blood, with protruding joints and a murderous aura.

The person who spoke was the sturdy man with a kind face.

His eyes passed over the man with the flying knife, and swept over the four people who were confronting him from a distance. When his eyes passed the man opposite who was looking at him calmly, he paused for a moment.

Before looking away, he glanced behind the four men and saw a corpse lying on the ground with a flying knife deeply stuck in its temple.

From the time he appeared until now, he didn't understand any of the causes and consequences. He just took a quick look around and had a basic idea in his mind.

He knew what was going on, but a kind smile appeared on his kind face, and he said:

"Xiaodao, why are you here alone?"

When the flying knife man saw this person coming, his expression was obviously much more relaxed, and he quickly came up to him and said:

"Brother Fei, we were chasing the enemy so closely just now that we accidentally got out of the team."

“…Who are these friends?”

"Comrades who killed the enemy together, let's go back now." The man with flying knives replied perfunctorily.

The kind-faced man nodded without asking any more questions. He nodded slightly to the calm-faced man in the distance, then walked back with the man with the flying knife.

Just then, a voice came from behind.

"Remember, God cannot be deceived!"

Hearing this, the flying knife man's expression suddenly changed.

He even wanted to turn around and tear Pingjing's mouth. He felt that if this person didn't exist, he could be completely at peace.

But now, these words were like a thorn, a demon in his heart, making his heart unable to calm down anymore.

Next to him, the kind-faced "Brother Fei" couldn't help but pause for a moment after hearing this, but he didn't say much. He just led the flying knife man back to his team.

After that, he never asked the flying knife man anything about what had just happened.

This allowed the anxious flying knife man to finally breathe freely.

……

"Not bad. I think with your level, commanding a battle of tens of thousands of people will be no problem at all."

Geng Xuan praised Hong Quan and Jiang Hongyi who came to pay him a visit.

At this moment, the battle is over.

The enemy prisoners of war, who had already dropped their weapons and raised their hands above their heads, were being escorted by their own soldiers and evacuated in an orderly manner from the battlefields.

In addition, a large number of our own soldiers were still stranded at the battle scene.

On the one hand, they need to identify their own members as quickly as possible.

For those who died in battle, there were people specifically responsible for collecting and counting them.

For those seriously injured, emergency rescue should be carried out immediately.

For a practitioner, he may lack abilities in other areas, but when it comes to first aid, almost everyone is very good at it.

——Without this ability, you would not have lived to see the day when you were forcibly conscripted to the Qingyuanji battlefield.

In addition, they also have to confirm the enemy's dead and seriously injured.

For those who have a high chance of recovery, they will give them some basic medicines and simple treatments.

As for those who are unlikely to survive, all they have to do is to finish them off and send them to their deaths cleanly and efficiently.

Use good luck to treat these people?
Geng Xuan thought about it in his mind, but quickly gave up.

At this time, he cannot use his personal ideas to challenge the general world and human nature.

Distributing "house-moving money" to 100,000 relocated residents was a practice that created many contradictions and disputes out of thin air. This was enough to happen once.

Besides, he really couldn't let the "gift" appear too cheap.

After arranging everything on the battlefield, Jiang Hongyi and Hong Quan came to pay their respects. Facing Geng Xuan's praise, the two showed no joy at all, but instead knelt down and apologized.

Seeing the two of them kneel down on the ground slickly, Geng Xuan was surprised:
"What are you doing?"

Hong Quan said with a look of shame:
"Boss, we have betrayed your trust!"

"What did you do?"

Hearing him say this, Geng Xuan became even more curious. After thinking about it carefully, he found that the two of them had let him down in any way.

Hong Quan lowered his head, and said with a voice full of self-blame:

“Because we were constantly suppressed by the enemy in the past few days, today was our first time to have a favorable battle, and I was immediately fascinated.

He forgot to pass on the military order of "surrender and spare life, lay down weapons and do not kill" as soon as possible.

It wasn't until a large number of enemy troops shouted surrender all over the battlefield that we reacted.

But this has already caused huge losses, not only prolonging the duration of the entire battle, but also increasing our casualties.

Many enemy soldiers saw that no one paid attention to their shouts of surrender, and instead they were hunted down more and more fiercely, forcing them into a desperate situation.

Even a trapped beast will still fight, let alone these practitioners?
Many of our soldiers were seriously injured or even died.

We did a quick count before coming here, and found that because this military order was not issued in a timely manner, we lost an additional four to five hundred people.

If the enemy troops are included, both sides may have lost about a thousand more men because of this military order."

At the end of his speech, Hong Quan's voice became more and more self-blaming.

He knew very well that in this "Qingyuanji Battle", in addition to annihilating the enemy and winning, the gang leader had another more important goal, which was to train troops.

The more soldiers who have actual combat experience, have faced the cruelty of the battlefield, and have experienced the strict military rules and ruthless military laws, the better!
Judging from the current situation, the gang needs more than just its own soldiers.

He also wanted to capture as many enemy soldiers as possible.

Don't miss any one!
If you think about it, this is actually very reasonable. This is the original capital that the gang leader relied on to start his business. Why would he care about friend or foe?
As long as I can use it, it belongs to me!
From this perspective, because of their mistakes, both sides lost a thousand more people, which is one-tenth of the total number of people participating in this battle!

How could they not feel uneasy about this?

Instead, Geng Xuan himself looked at the two people kneeling in front of him in a daze.

After a long while, he gradually remembered that he still had the requirement for them to "train more and train better."

Then, I understood why they asked for forgiveness.

Geng Xuan's mouth twitched. Of course he couldn't say, "You did a great job. I'm very satisfied."

The same cannot be said: "It's just a small matter, don't worry about it."

After a pause, he spoke comfortingly:

"Before the Battle of Qingyuanji, you two had no experience in commanding battles.

I forced him to the fire.

In such a short period of time, the performance you two have achieved today has exceeded my expectations."

At this point, Geng Xuan sighed and said:

“When you study, you will inevitably stumble.

You two don't have to blame yourselves. As long as you can improve and do better next time, then today's tuition fee will not be in vain!"

As he spoke, he helped the two of them up and asked:
"Do you two have anything else to say? If not, please go back quickly. I don't need you here."

Hong Quan and Jiang Hongyi looked at each other.

Jiang Hongyi said, "Boss, there are two things I need you to decide."

"You said."

"We discovered that many of our soldiers were too eager to kill the enemy and gain merit.

After we had spread the military order of "surrender and spare life, lay down your weapons and don't kill" everywhere, the enemy soldiers they were chasing immediately obeyed the order.

They threw down their weapons, gave up resistance, and shouted "surrender", but our soldiers took the opportunity to kill them.

Some do it covertly, while others do it openly.

...As a result, many conflicts arose, and some of the incidents were particularly serious.

Now, a lot of people are watching how we handle this.”

Having said that, Jiang Hongyi looked at Geng Xuan.

Geng Xuan looked calm, but as he got to know him better, Jiang Hongyi became more and more uneasy. His heart, which had originally been at ease, became tense again.

Geng Xuan did not answer but asked: "How do you think this matter should be handled?"

Jiang Hongyi said cautiously:
"No matter what, these people's actions are a blatant defiance of military orders, and we cannot just sit there and do nothing.

But we shouldn't dampen too much the mood of everyone killing the enemy and making meritorious contributions.

Moreover, there are many people who commit this crime.

Another thing is, this matter...we are also responsible.

If the military orders we issued had not been too hasty, this would not have happened.

At least, not this much.”

At the beginning, Jiang Hongyi was able to express his views relatively calmly.

But when he felt that, as he spoke, the gang leader's gaze on him gradually became like tangible pressure.

His words and thoughts began to stutter little by little.

In the end, he simply took part of the responsibility for the matter on himself and Hong Quan.

Geng Xuan nodded slowly and commented:

"Make a big deal small, compromise for the sake of perfection, don't hold everyone responsible, take the initiative to take responsibility... is that right?
Is this something you've learned recently, or did you know it before?"

Hearing this, Jiang Hongyi's face turned pale.

After a brief knock, Geng Xuan did not continue to embarrass Jiang Hongyi and said:
"Is there anything to be bothered about this matter?

Don't you two know what kind of military law you should follow for disobeying military orders?"

Hearing this, the expressions of Jiang Hongyi and Hong Quan became very solemn.

Jiang Hongyi, who had just been reprimanded, pursed his lips tightly, and Hong Quan stammered, as if he wanted to say something, but ultimately did not dare to open his mouth.

Geng Xuan said:
"What are you two doing? I want you to train me. I don't want ordinary soldiers.

Can military regulations and orders be used to negotiate conditions?
Today, because there are so many people, we can make a big deal out of a small matter and compromise and give in.

If the entire army disobeys military orders tomorrow, then the matter will be resolved into a small one.

Or, to be more thorough, just abolish all the military regulations that prevent them from doing whatever they want.

They have the final say in everything and can do whatever they want.

Is that so?

Jiang Hongyi and Hong Quan were silent for a long time before they said respectfully, "We know what to do."

Geng Xuan shook his head and said:
"There's no need for you two to do it yourself. I'll take care of this villain...Anything else?"

Hong Quan whispered:
"Boss, today's battle was too intense, and coupled with previous battles, the amount of medicine used to stop bleeding and provide first aid was extremely high.

The first batch to be used up was the one raised by Qi Mingcheng, Fang Jintang and others.

The next thing to be consumed was our own gang’s inventory.

It is precisely relying on this batch of inventory that has kept us going until today.

If we only treat our own seriously injured patients, it may be enough, but if we also take into account the seriously injured prisoners, it will not be enough.

...Moreover, we also discovered that within the enemy camp, there were a group of wounded soldiers who had survived the previous few days of fighting but were still seriously injured.

None of them received proper treatment, their injuries basically showed signs of worsening, and people were dying almost at any time.

When we discovered this, the number of these seriously injured patients was less than a hundred, far lower than our statistics.

The others all died one after another."

Geng Xuan was silent for a moment, then said, "So, we're short of medicine now, right?"

"Yes."

Geng Xuan asked: "Is there no medicine at all in the enemy camp?"

"A few, but not much."

Hong Quan replied:

“The reason why we sent people to search the enemy camp immediately was to find more medicine.

But the enemy camp’s medicine reserves are even less than ours.

Later, a prisoner from Baiyuanji revealed that when Wu Yi led his men to recruit soldiers from Beibaji at the beginning, he also specially arranged for people to transfer a large batch of medicines from Anleji.

But after seeing the quality of the soldiers recruited by Wu Yi and others from "Bei Ba Ji", the "giant bear" was very dissatisfied and lost his temper, saying that these useless soldiers were not qualified to enjoy those precious medicines.

Not only did he select half of them on the spot, he also used some means to turn them into out-of-control and crazy beast soldiers.

The remaining soldiers have few medicines to use after being injured.

Moreover, the more seriously injured the patient is, the less medicine they can get, or even no medicine at all.

On the night of the tenth day, the 'giant bear' even asked Wu Yi to send his confidant to deliver the remaining medicine overnight."

Geng Xuan was stunned. He didn't expect this to happen.

He thought about it carefully. On the tenth night, the "Giant Bear" suddenly led his troops to attack, but he was trapped in the Qingyuanji Square with only himself and a bow, and was caught in a dilemma.

Geng Xuan guessed that was when the "giant bear" began to clearly think of retreating.

But that very night, the first batch of reinforcements of more than 500 people from Wuyou Palace arrived.

The next night, Wuyou Palace sent more than a thousand reinforcements.

On the third night, which was last night, he arranged for more than 3,000 rangers to serve as supplies for him.

Geng Xuan guessed that the "Giant Bear" asked Wu Yi to transport those medicines out of Qingyuanji during the period when it was forced back from the square by itself and reinforcements from Wuyou Palace were arriving.

At that time, Huang Er, who was mainly assigned by him to be responsible for guarding underground, was lucky to be able to discover the reinforcements of Wuyou Palace hiding in the jungles of the remaining branches of Chiwu Mountain, and did not witness the actions of this group of people with his own eyes.

Even though reinforcements from Wuyou Palace arrived, "Giant Bear" chose to stay and did not let Wu Yi transport the medicines back.

Because in his eyes, those reinforcements were just a bunch of human consumables.

It's not a pity if someone dies, and there's no need to spend a lot of money on treatment if someone is seriously injured.

"Have all of Wu Yi's trusted aides returned overnight?"

"Yes." Hong Quan said, "In fact, they were only away for two hours at most before they all returned."

"Then do you know where they hid those drugs?"

"do not know."

Hong Quan shook his head and said, "Wu Yi's trusted confidants who were responsible for transporting that batch of medicine were all killed in the fierce fighting that lasted for two days, the day before yesterday and yesterday."

Geng Xuan was stunned for a moment.

He murmured, "How cruel!"

Hong Quan said: "In such a short time, at night, and without using Xuanyou horses, they can't have gone very far.

We guessed that they must have hidden the drugs somewhere nearby.

The most convenient place to hide things nearby is the foothills of Chiwu Mountain.

Just dig a hole somewhere and hide the thing. It will be hard for anyone to find it except yourself."

The "Giant Bear", who had already thought of retreating, did not want these drugs to hinder the actions of the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry.

However, he didn't want this batch of valuable medicines to fall into his hands, and he was reluctant to destroy them on the spot.

So, this choice was made.

Find a secluded place to bury it, and if all goes well, just dig it out again.

If things don't go well, at least the enemy won't get any advantage.

Thinking of this, Geng Xuan felt as if a boomerang had hit him.

He also really likes digging holes and hiding things.

This is how he dealt with many valuable items that were inconvenient to carry around at all times.

If something happened to him, from Kangleji to Qingyuanji, many "relics" would appear out of thin air underground thousands of years later.

Geng Xuan thought thoughtfully:
"Besides the executors, the 'giant bear' and Wu Yi should all know.

...Well, you can also ask Zha Luo, maybe he knows too."

Thinking of this, Geng Xuan suddenly remembered something and said, "Huh?" He suddenly asked, "Where's Wu Yi? Have you found Wu Yi?"

Jiang Hongyi and Hong Quan both shook their heads.

At this moment, Feng Yu, who was not far away, shouted to Geng Xuan:
"Gang leader, gang leader!"

Geng Xuan turned his head and saw Feng Yu waving at him quickly, indicating that he should hurry over.

Geng Xuan was curious and asked Hong Quan and Jiang Hongyi:
"Go and take care of yourselves. I'll try to figure out how to find the hidden drugs."

After saying that, Geng Xuan walked quickly towards Feng Yu.

Since the end of the war, Feng Yu has been helping to clean up the battlefield with others.

Most of the people were under the command of Jiang Hongyi, Hong Quan and others, responsible for clearing the vast battlefield involving tens of thousands of people and covering a huge area.

Feng Yu brought a group of marrow-refined combat forces, responsible for clearing the battlefield left by the enemy cavalry after several waves of "Death Spears".

They first had to remove the helmet and armor of each person who had been pierced by a spear.

Through the surrendered riders, we confirmed the identities and cultivation levels of these people.

And whether it was death or serious injury.

And based on the severity of the injury, decide whether to send the person directly to death or provide appropriate treatment.

——Anyone who was hit by the javelin and had his armor and body penetrated would at least be seriously injured.

When Feng Yu waved to Geng Xuan, a man was lying on the ground in front of him. He was wearing full armor and his chest was completely pierced by a spear.

Because the javelin was thrown with such force and speed, after piercing through the man's chest armor, torso, and back armor, it also penetrated deeply into the ground, pinning the man to the ground.

Blood flowed all over the ground from the wound on his back.

But now, the blood has long been drained.

The moment Geng Xuan saw this person, he had an impression of him.

This was one of the thirteen people he had shot through with fifteen consecutive shots within a hundred steps.

——The other two people were responsible for supplementary shooting at the two people in the late stage of marrow refining.

Because he made his choice based on the density of the red light above the target's head, Geng Xuan was impressed immediately when he saw the dense red light floating above the person's head that could surge towards his brows at any time.

At this moment, the man's helmet had been taken off by Feng Yu.

Because of the angle, Geng Xuan couldn't see the man's face, but he could see a head of messy white hair and skin covered in wrinkles and age spots.

It can be roughly judged that this is an old man who is about to die and must have suffered too many dramatic changes in his life recently.

Feng Yu was standing there, looking down with a complicated expression at the old man on the ground whose life fire could be extinguished at any time.

Geng Xuan had already thought of something.

He walked quickly to Feng Yu, stood on the other side of the old man on the ground, and looked down at him for a while.

Geng Xuan vaguely saw some shadows of Wu Youxin and Wu Youren in this person.

Or maybe, is this just an illusion?
After all, he didn't have any special impression of Wu Youren and Wu Youxin's appearance.

He asked, "Is this Wu Yi?"

"Yeah." Feng Yu responded and said:
"In my impression, he was not like this. He was at least 20 years younger than he is now. He was full of strength, had endless energy, and was ambitious.

When I saw him for the first time, I didn’t even recognize him…”

Having said that, Feng Yu sighed.

As the grand master of Baiyuanji, he had been under pressure from Wu Yi for a long period of his life.

The world is impermanent.

The opponent who once made him feel he could not face head-on has now met such a miserable and desolate end.

In fact, in the eyes of "Su Ruiliang", he has never been regarded as a real opponent.

He was just one of the dozen or so "miscellaneous soldiers" that were eliminated.

Thinking of this, how could Feng Yu not feel emotional?
At this moment, Wu Yi was lying on the ground, his eyes half open and half closed, his blood had drained out, his breathing had stopped, and only the head area still had some remaining life.

A pair of wrinkled eyelids slowly opened after a violent tremor, as if under the pressure of a mountain.

His eyes seemed to see Geng Xuan, but it seemed to be just a habit.

In fact, he can no longer see with his eyes.

His current condition is similar to that of Pang Shun before his death.

The vitality in the body has basically been drained away, and only the head area, thanks to the powerful vitality brought by marrow refining, still stubbornly retains the last bit of activity.

It is not an exaggeration to say that his body below the head has already entered the corpse state.

He just "looked" at Geng Xuan, his mouth opening and closing slightly despite his efforts.

Geng Xuan understood what he meant.

he was questioning.

why?
why?
How have I, Wu Yi, offended you?
How has my Wu family offended you?
My son, the future of my Wu family, how has Wu Youxin offended you?

why?
Why are you targeting us like this?

At this moment, Wu Yi, who was in his twilight years and about to die, no longer had the strength to hate.

He just couldn't figure it out. If this doubt couldn't be answered, he would die with regret.

Geng Xuan, understanding his intentions, wanted to ask, "Over the years, haven't the families you've forced to shatter their families and separate their wives and children been more numerous than yours? Aren't they more miserable than you, Wu Yi?"

Why do you suddenly start feeling sorry for yourself now that the power dynamics have been reversed?

Feeling bullied?
Feeling wronged?
You are so tough!

But Geng Xuan knew that this was not the answer Wu Yi wanted to hear.

What's more, he can no longer hear any sounds from the outside world.

Because Wu Yi's condition was special, in order to avoid any accidents with the "fruit of good fortune" and to waste his decades of hard work "nurturing", Geng Xuan stretched out his hand and clapped it downwards.

The iron-colored palm-shaped energy, condensed like substance, pressed down and hit Wu Yi's forehead before he could breathe his last.

Then he drew the palm-shaped energy inward and crushed the dying head into pieces.

Then he said to Feng Yu, who looked up in surprise with a look of nostalgia on his face:
"It's so painful for him to die. I can't bear it. Let him die quickly." (End of this chapter)
