New and dark light years

Chapter 75 I beg you to leave me alone
The inner courtyard of the Huang Mansion.

Hongluan handed the two porcelain bottles to Huang Qing and said with a smile, "Mr. Li said these are beauty pills. He really understands the thoughts of girls."

Huang Qing took the two porcelain bottles and couldn't let them go, with a smile on his face.

But then she looked at the smoke from the beacon fire in the distance and sighed, "I wonder how my eldest brother is doing over there."

At this time, Huang Ling walked over and said, "Beauty pills? I'm quite well-read, but I've never heard of such a pill. I've heard that the immortality pills made by Taoists are poisonous, so this one wouldn't be the same."

Huang Qing frowned, "Sister, Brother Shi isn't the type to mess around. If he says it's a beauty pill, it must be effective. I believe him."

"You've only met him a few times, and you trust him so much." Huang Ling was a little unhappy: "I'm still your sister, but you don't believe what I say."

Huang Qing sighed: "These are two different things."

"Sister, I'm advising you not to take pills carelessly."

"Sister, you don't need to persuade me anymore."

Huang Qing opened the bottle, poured out two green pills, and swallowed them in one gulp.

These two pills melt in your mouth.

"Sister, please don't eat..." Huang Ling couldn't stop her in time and stamped her feet: "Why are you so stubborn?"

"Sister, I'm nineteen. In another six months, I'll be twenty." Huang Qing's expression became serious, even a little cold. "I'm different from you. I have the blood of an alien race. You often say I deserve better, but how do you know that my father and mother haven't arranged for me to marry into a royal family?"

Huang Ling was stunned.

"Do you know how they look at me?" Huang Qing brushed her long hair in front of her. "When they saw this yellow hair, they had mockery in their eyes. Then when they looked at my pupils, it turned into mockery. Although they didn't express it openly, I could feel it."

"Sister, you are very beautiful, don't worry about them..."

"It's useless for you to think I'm pretty. It's only for a man to think so. I have to get married eventually."

Huang Ling moved her lips but could not speak.

Huang Qing now has a resentful expression on her face and is no longer as gentle and considerate as before.

But Huang Ling was still a little unwilling: "He, Li Lin, is just a patrol officer, a mere spirit hunter, not worth it..."

"But he thinks highly of me, do you understand?" Huang Qing's eyes sparkled with joy. "I could tell the first time he saw me that he wanted me to have children. That's the kind of look... the way he thinks highly of me is so obvious, he doesn't hide it at all."

Huang Ling was surprised by her sister's excited expression. She murmured, "But he...is of ordinary status."

"I am also a foreigner, and I am a concubine's daughter. To be honest, my status is far less noble than that of my brother." Huang Qing said with a smile: "Sister, you are the eldest daughter of the legitimate wife. You are qualified to compete for those nobles, but I can't. And I don't think Brother Li is worse than them. This is my best chance, the best marriage. If I miss it, there will be no other chance. I will regret it for the rest of my life. I beg you, sister, please don't ruin it, okay?"

Huang Ling subconsciously took two steps back.

She even said the word "beg". She could sense how much resentment her sister had for her wanting to hinder their relationship.

"I just want you to be well..."

"I do not need."

Huang Ling finally couldn't bear it anymore, covered her mouth and left crying.

This was the first time she was 'disliked' by her sister, and she felt very uncomfortable.

Huang Qing stood quietly, with a guilty look on his face, but then his expression became firm.

Hongluan whispered beside her, "Miss, aren't your words too harsh?"

"I know my sister very well. If not, she won't give up." Huang Qing said in a quiet voice, "Hongluan, you should understand that this is my only marriage, and the only one I recognize."

Hongluan smiled and said, "I support you, Miss."

"You're also attracted to Brother Li Shi, don't you think I don't know?"

Hongluan smiled shyly: "Hehe, isn't this a good thing?"

On the other side, Li Lin and others were at the south city gate. After waiting for a while, they saw Shi Dutou coming with hundreds of people.

Although there were only 400 local soldiers, they had to be followed by 200 auxiliary soldiers to transport logistical supplies, so there were 600 people in total.

Shi Dutou, riding on a tall horse, clasped his fists and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry to bother you along the way."

Everyone clasped their fists in return. Su Huafang said, "You're welcome."

The army then set out, with the spirit hunters following behind.

In fact, ordinary monsters would not dare to approach an army of 600 people, but one should always be prepared for the worst. With the help of the spirit hunters, it would be easier to solve any problems if they really happened.

Zhao Xiaohu came up to Li Lin with his spear in his arms. He was obviously a little nervous: "Brother Lin, will something happen to us?"

"No." Li Lin smiled and said, "If something really happens, you stay back. Do you understand?"

Zhao Xiaohu nodded repeatedly.

At this time, Bai Xiaofan came over, patted Zhao Xiaohu on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will protect you."

Zhao Hao even smiled and said, "Brother Zhao, don't be afraid. We, the spirit hunters in Yulin County, are the most united. When the time comes, you just stay at the back. As long as we are all dead, you will definitely not get hurt."

After knowing that Zhao Xiaohu was only thirteen years old, everyone took good care of him.

After hearing this, Zhao Xiaohu felt much calmer.

Nothing much happened along the way.

Bobai Military Town is about five days' journey from Yulin County, but with a forced march, it only took three and a half days to reach the destination.

At this time, the north gate of Bobai Military Town was also closed, but there were people patrolling there.

Seeing the reinforcements coming from the rear, a soldier shouted: "Where are the reinforcements coming from?"

"Yulin County, the head of the rural army, Shi Dazhu!"

"Wait, I'll open the door."

It was almost impossible for the troops coming from the rear to be the enemy, so the soldiers guarding the city opened the city gate with confidence.

Shi Dutou led the local army into the city, and Li Lin and others followed.

Then he saw Huang Qi standing in front.

He was wearing a suit of armor, and the originally elegant scholar now had some of the style of a Confucian general.

Shi Dazhu immediately went over and saluted: "County Lieutenant, the county lord has ordered me to bring 400 local soldiers to support us."

Huang Qi's skin wasn't as fair as before. He returned the greeting and said, "You've arrived just in time. With over 400 men, the Bobai Military Town will surely be able to hold out until General Tang arrives to rescue us."

After finishing his words, Huang Qi saw Li Lin. He walked over quickly, patted Li Lin on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Kunge, I didn't expect you to come too."

"Since we eat government food, we have no choice but to take action when something goes wrong."

"But you've come at the right time. There's something I need your help with right now."

"whats the matter?"

"follow me."

Huang Qi first asked Shi Dutou to settle the soldiers, and then asked Su Huafang and others to find a barracks to rest.

He took Li Lin to the south city wall.

This is a fortress pass, and the roads around it are blocked by rivers. The enemy can only continue to advance into the heart of Da Qi by attacking this fortress.

Standing on the top of the city wall and looking down, there is a plain to the south, but not far away, there is a barracks.

In front of the camp, there was a tall wooden pole with several naked corpses hanging on it, swaying back and forth.

"Those were all soldiers of the Great Qi, yet they were humiliated by the enemy." Huang Qi's tone was filled with grief and indignation. "I heard you can cast the Thunder Curse. Can you help me use lightning to break that pillar?"

The distance is enough, it is indeed possible.

Just when Li Lin was about to make a seal and cast a spell, someone shouted next to him.

"No!"
