Faced with the question from the tenth captain, Mo Shouchen hesitated for a moment, but he finally nodded and did not choose to hide it.
"Why do you come here? What is your purpose?" the tenth captain asked again in a vigilant tone.
Mo Shouchen smiled bitterly and said: "If I had a choice, I would not want to enter this world at all, but there is no way, we have no right to choose."
"As for the purpose, we need to stay here for a while, so we don't want Loulan City to be breached."
The tenth captain stared into Mo Shouchen's eyes, the expression on his face was somewhat unpredictable.
"I ruined my future because I mistrusted others. From now on, I swear, except for these brothers who follow me, I will never trust anyone again..."
Mo Shouchen felt the murderous aura emanating from the captain, and suddenly felt bad.
But just when he was mentally prepared to fight, the tenth captain's aura suddenly relaxed.
He let out a long sigh and said, "I don't know why, but I just think you are worthy of trust, so I choose to trust you. I hope this won't be another decision that I will regret for the rest of my life."
Mo Shouchen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and then said sincerely: "Don't worry, I will never betray a friend!"
The tenth commander smiled and patted Mo Shouchen on the shoulder: "Go back, they should be worried if you leave for too long."
Mo Shouchen nodded, and then followed the tenth captain back to the camp.
The soldier in charge of the night watch saw the two men returning and asked, "Why did you go so long? Did you eat something unclean?"
The tenth captain walked over and kicked me, and then scolded me: "How long do I have to go to the toilet before you need to worry about it? Don't you think it's too easy to be so nosy? Why don't you keep watch all night?"
"
The soldier rubbed his butt and said aggrievedly: "Aren't I worried about you?"
The captain pointed at Mo Shouchen and said, "What do two grown men have to worry about? Can he still eat me?"
"It's okay if you eat them." The soldier muttered in a low voice.
"What did you say!"
"Ah, I said it's cold at night, so I need to boil some hot water to drink." After saying this, the soldier quickly picked up the pot and boiled the water.
Although the captain looked fierce, Mo Shouchen knew that he was not really angry, and the soldier who had been taught a lesson did not have any dissatisfaction.
It can be seen from this that the relationship between these strong-willed men is really good.
Returning to the bonfire, Mo Shouchen first picked up the firewood in the bonfire with a wooden stick to make the fire burn brighter. Then he asked the captain: "What do the ancient ghosts look like? How did they destroy the city wall?"
?”
Looking at the crackling bonfire, the captain recalled for a moment, and then began to tell the story of the battle that happened three days ago.
It was a rainy night three days ago. The soldiers guarding the city suddenly noticed something rushing towards them in the canyon ahead.
He quickly blew the horn to notify others of the enemy's presence, and at the same time another soldier shot a lit illuminating arrow forward.
The flaming lighting arrow streaked across the night sky like a comet, and then exploded in mid-air a hundred meters away. The dazzling light instantly illuminated the canyon.
The soldiers guarding the city saw that there were indeed enemies approaching Loulan City, but these enemies were not soldiers from Rakshasa City, but a group of warriors wearing animal skins and holding stone hammers and axes. They looked like they were from ancient tribes.
.
The number of this group of warriors was extremely large, and they were so dark in the canyon that they could not even be seen to the end.
At this time, the soldiers who heard the sound of the trumpet also rushed to the city wall. Seeing the scene outside the city, each of their faces showed a look of horror.
This group of warriors quickly rushed to the front of the city, and the officer guarding the city immediately ordered to release arrows. Hundreds of arrows formed an airtight net, instantly swamping the tribal warriors at the front.
The tribal soldiers who were shot into hedgehogs fell to the ground one after another. A moment later, these soldiers who were shot to death turned into black mist and disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this scene, the officer guarding the city frowned and murmured: "They are not human beings!"
After two waves of arrows, a large number of warriors turned into black mist, but more warriors had already rushed to the front of the city.
They threw themselves under the city wall, and the soldiers behind stepped on the soldiers in front to climb up. It felt like black waves were beating against the city wall.
The city guarding officer quickly ordered the soldiers to push down the logs used to defend the city.
This kind of log is more than three meters long and about 30 centimeters in diameter. It is made of wet elm wood and is very dense. The log is also covered with long wooden nails. Any enemy who is crushed will definitely die.
Moreover, there are iron chains at both ends of the log. As long as the winch is shaken, the rolled log can be pulled up and reused.
The logs rolled down the city wall like beasts covered with spikes, and a large number of siege soldiers were directly crushed to death.
Fortunately, these warriors will turn into black mist after death. If they did not disappear, their corpses alone could fill the entire city wall.
Due to the abnormal lethality of the logs and the fact that it was raining and relatively slippery, although the number of soldiers attacking the city was large, their progress was not smooth.
Just when the soldiers guarding the city thought they were sure of victory, the rain suddenly stopped, and they saw a tall figure in the distance slowly approaching surrounded by tribal warriors.
This figure is two meters tall, covered in blue animal skin, and decorated with bones in many parts.
Although she looks like a woman based on her body shape and dress, she doesn't have a single hair on her head and her face is covered with blood-red tattoos, which makes her look a bit scary.
Having said this, the ten-capion couldn't help but take a deep breath. It seemed that the image of the other party had left a deep imprint on his heart.
An ancient tribe? A woman without hair? The rain stops as soon as it appears?
Linking these keywords together, a legendary figure immediately appeared in Mo Shouchen's mind, and he subconsciously blurted out: "Female?"
The captain nodded: "It seems that our two worlds still have many similarities."
After receiving the confirmation, Mo Shouchen finally understood why the people in Loulan City called these enemies attacking the city "ancient ghosts".
Because they are simply ghosts from ancient times.
"Is the female demon strong? What happened next?" Mo Shouchen asked curiously.
The captain looked at the bonfire a little absently, his face turned red by the light of the fire.
After a long time, he slowly said: "Yes, the female demon is very strong. Her appearance can be said to be Loulan City's nightmare!"
