Chapter 182

Looking back on the picture of that old year, it seems like yesterday.

But inadvertently, so many years have passed.

They both thought that they would be each other's each other, so when Ning Wan asked him: Ji Hai, we will go on like this forever, right?
He didn't think about it, and answered yes.

But now, when Xi Lan asked her the same question, he was so sure!

He hesitated, so he hugged her tightly and remained silent.

Xi Lan naturally also felt his hesitation, but she couldn't see through his hesitation. When she looked up, she could see his expression because of Ning Wanzhuo.

She didn't ask any more questions, nor did she expect to get an answer!

She gently pushed him away, pretending that nothing happened just now.

Carefully put the charm neatly into the cloth pocket at the waist.

"Since it's Yin ghost poison, I'm afraid there will be people who will encounter it in the future. I'll write down a prescription for taking ghost poison from an ancient book. You should immediately order someone to prepare a large amount of it. After boiling it, distribute it. No one will take a bowl."

As she spoke, she picked up the pen and quickly wrote down the prescription on the paper.

Li Huai took the prescription and looked at it, and couldn't help getting to know her better.

Her handwriting is not as soft and graceful as her daughter's, but powerful and powerful.

He immediately ordered people to prepare, and also sent Zhuang Zhimou, a powerful member of the royal family's guard, to personally supervise.

Next, they did not wait in the tent, but took the rest of the Wangfu guards to patrol the camp.

Counting the time, but there was no news from below, she began to feel a little anxious.

"Could it be that I made a mistake?"

There are so many ghost-suppressing charms posted in the entire camp, if the ghost is inside, it is impossible that it will not respond at all.

"Don't worry, maybe it has already left!" Li Huai comforted her.

Xi Lan shook her head and asked him: "This must have something to do with Xigong, do you believe they will give up so easily?"

Li Huai looked at the light and shadow of the entire camp under the night, everything around was normal, and there was no trace of haunting at all.

"Knowing that Liang Shaocong attacked me because of this evil spirit, my mood has actually calmed down a lot...Xi Lan, thank you."

He withdrew his gaze and looked at Long Xilan beside him.

On her face was the calmness when she first saw her.

Only those who have really experienced real hardships can do this.

At this time, he found that there seemed to be something less around him than before.

At the same time, Xi Lan also noticed this, they took two steps forward together, and she called out to the weeds in front: "Who's there?"

In the wild in summer, there are usually insects chirping in the weeds. When they first came, they did hear them, but they all disappeared just now!

Naturally, there was something alive in the weeds, maybe someone, eavesdropping on them.

As her voice fell, the weeds really moved!
Xi Lan drew out the afterimage sword and was about to rush in, but was pulled behind by Li Huai.

He didn't say anything, but just by looking at his eyes, he knew he was signaling her not to rob him.

She had no choice but to follow behind him with a long sword to cover him.

Holding Po Xiao, Li Huai pushed aside the weeds in front of him, and suddenly saw a person standing in the weeds.

Following the firelight in the camp, the two of them saw that person clearly.It was a soldier in military uniform, standing upright in the grass like this, it was really weird that he didn't answer his question just now.

"Which battalion are you from? Why are you eavesdropping here late at night?" Li Huai asked in a deep voice, trying to see if the other party would answer this time.

Just like before, the man stood there with a dazed expression, nothing in his eyes.

"Li Huai!" Sensing movement in the grass on the right, Xi Lan raised his sword to block it.

Then there was the piercing sound of blunt weapons colliding, and a soldier with a saber jumped out from the right and attacked them fiercely.

Xi Lan kicked the opponent away, and the man fell down, trampling a piece of weeds, but immediately got up again and continued to chop at them!

Li Huai saw that the soldier's state was very similar to that of Liu Tao and Liu Ping who fought that day. He must have been a new victim of a ghost. He didn't hesitate to go up and finish this man with a few quick and ruthless movements!
"Keep people under the sword!" Xi Lan stopped immediately, but it was too late!

Li Huai's Po Xiao Sword cut off the opponent's head directly.

Seeing this, she had no choice but to say regretfully: "Injuring their Tianyang acupoint can stimulate their physical bodies and temporarily restore their sanity. I may have a way to help them get in touch with the ghost poison on their bodies!"

After all, it is a life, and they will choose to save it unless it is absolutely necessary.

Li Huai turned around, his expression changed.

Realizing what happened behind her, Xi Lan immediately turned around to look, and the soldier standing in the grass just now was gone!
You know, their sensitivity is very strong, even if they were disturbed by another person who suddenly rushed out to attack, they couldn't be unaware, right?

"Be careful!" Just when Xi Lan was surprised, another person suddenly rushed towards her from her left side.She swiftly dodged back, and she saw clearly that it was the man standing upright in the grass just now.

She immediately stabbed the opponent's Tianyang blood with the sword, and only then heard the opponent's wailing of pain.

This proves that the other party's consciousness has come back a bit, otherwise, how would he know the pain?It is bound to die.

Seeing the other person fall down holding the place where she stabbed her foot, Xi Lan immediately ran up, opened the person's eyes, and saw the black air flowing through inside, very sinister.

Li Huai rushed over, knelt down and asked her, "How is it? Is there any help?"

Xi Lan slowly raised her head and glanced at him.

With just this look, one can be sure that there is no hope!
"The ghost poison is generated by the resentment and evil thoughts of ghosts. Once a living person is infected, the evil must be exorcised and purified immediately."

And this person's ghost poison has been on the brain for some time, the chance of being rescued is really slim, usually at this time, they all choose to send the other party on the road, so as not to suffer.

"I don't want to die! I don't want to die, my lord, please save me! Help me!" The horror shown by the poisoned soldier in the face of death was really uncomfortable.

These living lives have been ruined in this way, and Li Huai couldn't bear it, he asked: "Is there really no way to save him?"

Xi Lan shook her head solemnly.

Subconsciously, she had already clenched the Remnant Sword tightly in her hand, and she would never hesitate when she knew she would die.

Li Huai understood her motives, and asked the man in a deep voice, "Do you have any last words?"

Hearing that, the soldier cried with despair in his eyes.

"My lord, my name is Chen Dayong, and I have a [-]-year-old mother at home... Mother! I'm sorry for you..." After the man finished speaking, a mouthful of blood spit out from his mouth, as if he had committed suicide by biting his tongue!

This picture makes them very heavy.

In the face of a fresh life being ruined, it is impossible for anyone with a little kindness to remain unmoved.

Light and shadow flickered in Li Huai's eyes, and he gently reached out to close Chen Dayong's wide-open eyes.

Both of them were silent for a long time in front of this dignified death.

Li Huai got up slowly, and said from the bottom of his heart: "Sitting on the throne is not for power and honor..." He did not look at Xi Lan behind him, but looked at the wilderness under the night.He said: "It is only for the peace of the world and to eliminate all evil in the world!"

This was the first time Xi Lan heard him talk about his yearning for the throne, and every word he said was deeply engraved in her mind for many years later.

"My lord! My lord!" At this moment, Yan Ting and others who had just rushed over came striding over.

Seeing the two corpses lying on the ground, Yan Ting immediately touched his knees to the ground: "It's too late..."

Li Huai waved his hand to get him up, and ordered: "Have someone drag these two corpses away and burn them!"

"Dutong!" A bearded general who followed Yan Ting stepped forward and reported with a serious face: "The soldiers below were a little panicked when they heard that the camp was haunted. I am afraid that the ghost has not been caught. Chaos first!"

On Li Huai's gloomy face, there was a trace of resentment, and he ordered: "Tell the battalions below to gather people!"

"Yes!" Yizi Hushen took the order and immediately sent someone to convey it.

In less than a stick of incense time, soldiers from the 25th Battalion of nearly ten thousand defense forces appeared on the school field in an orderly arrangement.

Li Huai strode up to the high platform. In the light and shadow of the campfire, he was dressed in blood-stained purple clothes. Needless to say, he was handsome, walking in the night wind, he was even more calm and majestic.

Originally, there were quite a lot of chaotic voices below, but as soon as Li Huai, who was the governor, walked up, the place immediately became completely silent.

"Chen Dayong!" He suddenly called out the name of the soldier who bit his tongue and killed himself just now to the soldiers below. Thousands of people in the audience watched each other, not knowing what the new commander-in-chief was going to say.

"He is the same as all of you, he is a soldier! He is a soldier! But he is dead now. Maybe someone will die in this battalion today. Maybe it is you, or it may be me, Li Huai!" His loud voice pierced through Over the night sky, recalling above thousands of people. "Is death terrible? Of course it's terrible! There are thousands of ways to die, but no matter how many ways to die, the ending is the same. People are lifeless and their souls leave their bodies. This is when you enter this team and you put on this armor. We face it when we die! Maybe life is coming to an end, and when the time comes, we should go on the road. At that time, we have no choice, but when facing death, we have two choices. One is to die cowardly and frightened, and the other is to die like a man. Those who fear evil will die, you! Which one will you choose?"

Which one do you choose?
Everyone looked at the tall and straight figure on the high platform, and was infected in the silence.

After a long time, a voice sounded from the audience.

"Yi Yu's heart is only good, even though he died nine times, he still has no regrets!"

Li Huai looked down, among tens of thousands of people, he found the source of the voice accurately.

Originally, he wanted to encourage the soldiers, but the man's firm and unrepentant eyes encouraged him.

"It's a good one, and I only want to do what I want, even though I have died a few times, I still don't regret it!" He held up the Po Xiao sword and smiled up to the sky.

"Yi Yu's heart is only good, even though he died nine times, he still has no regrets! Yi Yu's heart is only good, even though he died nine times, he still has no regrets!"

Then, a deafening sound like thunder came from the mouths of all the soldiers...
