Chapter 198 Confessing Secrets
"What's going on? Why did Xiao Qianhu die here?!"
"I remembered! A burst of white mist came from nowhere that day, and then everyone fell down one after another!"
"How long have we been unconscious? Are Chief Li and the others still in the city?"
The soldiers in the camp were in a state of chaos for a while, and the soldiers from Yulin Guard and Beizhen Fusi began to divide into several groups to investigate the situation.
It didn't take long for everyone to discover something strange deep in the bamboo forest and on the edge of the cliff. The tragic death of Li Shijie and three hundred Tiqi made them horrified.
"Master Boss...Master Boss was actually killed! Who did this?!"
"All the Tiqi lords seem to have taken diamond pills. What kind of enemy can force them into such a situation?"
"Isn't this mission to hunt down the remnants of the Song family? Is this supposed to be Song Xi's work?"
"No, it's impossible, right? This, this... I've never heard of him having such an ability in Beijing before!"
"Why are there only the bodies of the Tiqi adults? Are there no casualties on the enemy side? How should we explain to the Northern Town Fusi and the Holy Emperor when we go back?"
The soldiers present looked at the blood and corpses all over the ground and had no idea how to return to the peak and the court.
Li Shijie brought out a total of more than 5,000 soldiers and horses during this trip. In addition to the 3,500 Yulin Guards who were safe and sound, more than a thousand low-level soldiers from the Fusi in Beizhen were also safe and sound.
Only Chief Li himself and three hundred powerful core Tiqi were killed. This was a huge loss for Beizhen Fusi, who had a privileged position!
I'm afraid they will have to face rounds of scrutiny when they return to the capital, and if they are not careful, they may have to pay for the failure of this operation!
Everyone had the idea of escaping before the battle, but when they thought that their household registration information had been registered, their escape would definitely affect their relatives and friends, so they had no choice but to accept their fate and collect the bodies for Chief Li and others, and return to the capital in despair.
The imperial court was restored.
On the other side, in the merit space.
Yu Yalan was taking Song Xi to visit the scenery of the space, and introduced to him the uses and characteristics of each place with great interest.
They didn't care about the chaos outside, and just planned to wait for the storm to subside before going out and taking action.
Since there is nearly thirty times the time difference between space and the outside world, they do not need to monitor what is going on outside all the time. They can just wait until they want to leave to check whether the environment is safe, and then choose the right time to leave the space.
They deliberately let go of those Yulin guards. Song Xi and his party had no intention of going on a killing spree. The soldiers at the bottom were just following orders. There was no need to kill them all if there was no deep hatred.
What's more, being too harsh will easily arouse the jealousy of the court. Large-scale casualties will make the emperor misestimate their strength and think that Song Xi has a large number of troops in his hands. If he makes any crazy counterattack, he will be asking for trouble.
.
Yu Yalan took Song Xi to visit Lingtian Villa and Gongde Square, explaining to him the general principles of space operation and all functions, and then led him to the Gongde Tree, and frankly told him about his origin and life experience with a little trepidation.
.
Song Xi was actually not surprised to learn that the Yu siblings came from another world.
He witnessed the two people falling from the sky that day, and because of his momentary curiosity and kindness, he formed an indissoluble bond with the siblings.
But now that he heard that she was accumulating merit in order to return to modern times, the man couldn't help but panic.
He wanted to open his mouth to try to stay, but he was a little timid and worried. He was worried that Yu Yalan would think that he was selfish and did not care about his lover's difficulties.
In the end, he had to pretend to be calm and managed a smile to change the topic.
"The Merit Tree actually has such a miraculous ability to reach the sky? It is as powerful as the legendary omnipotent gods and Buddhas!"
It was so powerful that it could send Lan'er to him, but also make him lose the only warmth in the world at some point.
But what can he do to stop her? Lan'er still has relatives, friends, and a promising career in modern times, but she has no important ties or concerns in the Zhou Dynasty. There is no reasonable reason for wanting to stay, and she will only suffer the consequences of not being able to reunite with her relatives.
The regret and pain will last a lifetime.
Yu Yalan saw that his expression was different, and there was a hint of sadness in his brows and eyes, but he had to pretend that nothing was wrong so as not to worry her. She could tell at a glance that there was some misunderstanding.
A pair of soft catkins gently held his hand, and her watery eyes looked directly into his. Shu's beautiful face was full of seriousness, and she sincerely made a solemn promise to him every word.
"Brother Song, are you worried that I will abandon you and leave? I, Yu Yalan, can swear to the merit tree that even if the sky falls apart and the blue water falls, I will never be separated from you for any reason! I am willing to stay here, stay here
I will grow old together with you in this alien land, and we will accompany you through life and death, and we will never leave you!"
Song Xi was shocked when he heard the words, and a burst of emotion and tenderness surged in his chest. The strong love was like a huge wave, swallowing up all his uneasiness.
He ecstatically embraced the woman into his arms, his excited voice mixed with a few imperceptible sobs, "Lan'er, am I not dreaming? Are you really willing to stay? Do you really not regret it?
?I...I am very happy and honored, but...what should your parents and family do?"
The man is as happy as if he is in a dream, but he is also worried that his sweetheart will be in a dilemma because of him.
Yu Yalan snuggled into his arms obediently, looked into his eyes and replied affirmatively: "I am really willing to stay and stay in love with you. I will have no regrets for the rest of my life!"
As for the other question...
"The Merit Tree has the powerful ability to travel and reverse time and space. We can return to modern times after we die here. Then we can adjust the time travel back to our youth. If we are lucky, we may be able to take you away with us. Brother Song, you
Would you like to go back with me?"
Song Xi only felt that today's surprise was really unexpected. He had never expected to reconnect with Lan'er in another world, so that they could have more time together. He was a dementia prisoner.
You would never be stupid enough to give up such an opportunity!
"I do! As long as you are here, I will be willing to go through mountains of swords and seas of fire! Lan'er, thank you, thank you for being willing to be with me all the time!"
Lan'er has sacrificed too much for him! Family, relatives, friends, future... and everything he had in the first half of his life. He, Song Xi, is now just a miserable man with nothing, and it was only by sheer luck that he got her favor and love!
If you get a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for?
Not to mention following her to a completely unfamiliar world, even if Lan'er asked him to sacrifice his life immediately, he would kill himself with a sword without hesitation!
Yu Yalan was also overjoyed, with tears faintly flashing in her slightly trembling almond eyes.
