Chapter Seventy-Third: To defend the city with one's own life, in order to protect the safety of all living beings
Su Changge stiffened. To be honest, he had never been in close contact with a girl. Even if he had contact with Luo Qingran before, it was only when he was unconscious.
After Luo Qingcheng and Luo Qingran, it seems that I no longer have any expectations for relationships. One is that during more than ten years of loneliness, I was tempted by my ignorant love for the opposite sex. The other is that when no one helped me, I
Trust in brothers.
Even though his body was not hurt in the end, for him, his mind was hurt even more.
Now that Ning Xingyao hugged him so abruptly, his long-suffering peace of mind was a little disturbed.
At this moment, he felt that it was not that his mind was too calm, but that he did have contact with few people, but that was fine, because he didn't like meaningless social interactions.
He stretched out his hand, patted Ning Xingyao's back slowly, and said softly: "It's still here, don't be afraid, what's wrong? Tell me, okay?"
Speaking of this, Su Changge clearly felt that Ning Xingyao's body stiffened in his arms. The next moment, Ning Xingyao slowly left Su Changge's arms, smiled sweetly, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm okay."
Su Changge looked into her eyes, without letting go of his hands on her shoulders, and used a slight force to make her face him.
With their four eyes facing each other, at such a close distance, Ning Xingyao's eyes were like a pool of clear water, with a bright light shining in them. However, under Su Changge's gaze, her eyes were a little dodgy.
Su Changge said: "If you have any difficulties, you must tell me and we will face it together, okay?"
Ning Xingyao's evasive eyes narrowed slightly, she lowered her eyes and pursed her lips. Su Changge's deep voice surged onto her face with the energy of his youth.
Her cheeks couldn't help but turn red, and the hands tightly grasping her shoulders made her feel Su Changge's nervousness even more.
It made her heart warm. If she liked the unparalleled God of War at the beginning, but now, she likes Su Changge.
She didn't know what she really liked about him, but she only knew that as long as she was with him, she would feel at ease. Her soul was almost suppressed from this body just now.
But under Su Changge's call, she was forced to take back control of her body. In fact, there are now two consciousnesses in her body.
Under Su Changge's gaze, she raised her eyes and looked directly at Su Changge, nodded slightly, and replied: "Okay."
A smile appeared on Su Changge's face, and he rubbed Ning Xingyao's head hard, messing up the smooth hair on her head. Ning Xingyao frowned and slapped Su Changge's hand away, but she
There was a smile on his face.
Su Changge looked at her embarrassed appearance and said with a smile: "It's better like this, it's much cuter."
Ning Xingyao suddenly reached out and pinched Su Changge's shoulder. Following Su Changge's screams, Ning Xingyao hummed: "What? I call you annoying, is it wrong?"
Su Changge tilted his body, followed the direction of Ning Xingyao's hand, and shouted quickly: "Wrong, wrong, wrong, my good sister, I was wrong."
Ning Xingyao smiled proudly and then let go of Su Changge's hand on his shoulder.
Su Changge covered his arm and rubbed it up and down with extremely exaggerated movements.
Ning Xingyao put her arm around Su Changge's shoulders, but she was half a head shorter than Su Changge, which made her look extremely weird.
She had a playful look on her face and said with a smile: "Let's see if you dare to do it in the future."
Su Changge laughed and put his hand on Ning Xingyao's shoulder.
Ning Xingyao slapped Su Changge on the shoulder and said viciously: "I'll pinch you again!"
Su Changge chuckled, his face full of dissatisfaction, and said: "Come on, screw me."
Ning Xingyao reached over, but instead of twisting, she poked the place where she had pinched Su Changge's shoulder.
He tilted his head and looked at Su Changge and asked, "Doesn't it hurt?"
Su Changge chuckled, shook his head, and said loudly: "The beauty pinched her, of course it won't hurt!"
His voice was loud and immediately attracted the attention of those around him.
Ning Xingyao felt the eyes around her, her face turned red immediately, and she said angrily: "Oh, let go quickly, you are so heavy, don't make me shorter."
Su Changge said softly, "Hey", but he still let go of his hand.
He was more able to accept Ning Xingyao like this. The cold Ning Xingyao before was not who he thought she was at all. She was too perfect, as if she had lost... her humanity.
The people around them looked at them with sincere eyes. During their run, they arrived at the lively market. People were collecting food and protective gear and preparing to defend the city.
No one knows that today's Huangsha City has been abandoned.
The surrounding eyes were focused on them, feeling their youthful vitality and beauty, which made people smile on their faces and nod kindly when they looked over.
The soldiers distributing equipment waved to them and said with a smile: "Boys and girls, come and get the food!"
An uncle on the side pulled Su Changge and said with a smile: "Huangsha City, the capital of our Sha Dynasty, will definitely be able to hold it. Then I will marry this girl! Hahaha!"
An aunt on the side shouted: "Drunkard, what are you talking about?"
After saying that, he showed a warm smile, looked at Su Changge and Ning Xingyao with sincere eyes, and said with a smile: "But you two are a good match!" Then he looked at Su Changge and warned: "That's right.
This girl is better, she has been blessed for several lifetimes to have such a beautiful daughter-in-law."
The uncle who was called an alcoholic snorted coldly and responded: "You don't drink when you fight, and you don't fight when you drink! Brother, I will protect you later."
The old man with a cane on the side let out a chuckle and said with a smile: "I don't believe you when I say you are drunk. They are in their teens and 20s, and you are in your 40s and 50s, so you still have a brother and a brother."
The two felt the atmosphere of people talking around them, and their faces were filled with smiles.
Ning Xingyao turned back, took Su Changge's hand, looked up into his eyes, slowly came forward, and said softly: "We're not leaving, okay?"
After saying that, she stepped back. Su Changge took the lead and grabbed her. Without thinking at all, he leaned into her ear and replied: "I thought so too."
Ning Xingyao's lips curved up into a smile, and she looked back at the soldiers distributing equipment and said, "Thank you, we don't need it anymore!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Changge directly grabbed her with one hand and flew directly into the air, crossing the crowd and heading straight for the city gate.
Everyone looked surprised. The drunkard uncle was stunned and asked doubtfully: "Did they fly just now?"
The aunt nodded, looked at their backs disappearing around the corner with the same surprise, and replied: "They are from the Cangxuan Sect!"
This is the first time people in Huangsha City have come into close contact with Cangxuan Sect disciples. After all, only people in the army have seen Cangxuan Sect disciples before. The rest of the people who met Cangxuan Sect disciples rode directly through the city on horseback.
Staying.
And that high-ranking Cangxuan Sect disciple is actually so approachable, and even more so young.
The previous Cangxuan Sect disciples all wore hats, robes, and riding uniforms, so they could not touch them at all.
The two people appeared inside the city gate. At this time, the city gate was closed, and there was a faint fishy smell blowing along the wind and sand.
Su Changge raised his head and saw Men Shi standing on the city gate. None of them chose to leave. They were all ready for battle, sharpening their swords in preparation for the next battle.
Each of them had a cold face, with a look of murderous intent, and no one noticed Su Changge and Ning Xingyao appearing behind the city wall.
The voice of the clan leader came slowly, "Since all brothers are willing to live and die with Huangsha City, then today we will pay with blood for those who invaded our Eastern Territory!"
"Kill one and you'll get your money back! Kill two and you'll make a profit! Kill three and you'll be a pure man!"
All the soldiers waved the blades in their hands and roared: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Su Changge suddenly stepped forward, and the spiritual energy that had been restored long ago was released in his throat. His voice was powerful and penetrating, and he shouted: "Stop!"
Suddenly, it attracted everyone's attention.
Men Shi also looked back at Su Changge and Ning Xingyao, with doubts in his eyes, but he frowned slightly.
The man next to him, known as Little Oak, stood up and shouted at Su Changge: "What? You still want to hinder our choice? If you don't help us, we will defend it ourselves!"
This time, Menshi did not stop him and said together: "Sir, please leave. We don't blame you. You are just following orders, but don't hinder us."
Su Changge shook his head and said: "Let's stick to Huangsha City together and let the civilians in the city go first."
Men Shi was stunned, looked at Su Changge, and said "Huh?"
Su Changge nodded and continued: "Hurry up and organize! Time is running out."
He even visibly smelled the smell of blood getting stronger, and a flash of worry flashed between his brows. How many lives had been slaughtered to get this blood, and it represented every life.
Menshi nodded randomly, not just him, but everyone present.
However, there were not many people present, and together with the militia and people who spontaneously joined the defense, there were only one or two hundred people in total.
After all, as a clan leader, he is just a soldier with the lowest official rank and does not have many soldiers.
And as they started to move, bursts of crying suddenly sounded in the city, from children, old people, all kinds of cries.
After all, this is the city that gave birth to them and raised them, and the deep-rooted intimacy makes them give up like this. It is indeed difficult to accept it for a while.
They already have feelings for this city.
After an hour, the people in the city gradually embarked on the road to leave their hometowns and headed towards Xuanming City, five hundred miles away.
In front of Shacheng, we could already see a dark area in the distance.
Su Changge's eyes trembled. If he didn't care about everything before, now, Ning Xingyao seemed to have entered his heart unknowingly.
It was that hug in the city that made him realize his feelings for Ning Xingyao.
Ning Xingyao seemed to feel Su Changge's nervousness, and quietly held Su Changge's hand and said softly: "It's okay."
Su Changge nodded, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he slowly adjusted his breathing. The skills and meridians in his body were ready for battle.
The forehead of the monk on the side is already covered with sweat. Not only him, but also many people, even if they are hot-tempered, are willing to defend the city.
But we are all mortals, with mortal hearts. Under the pressure of this black and towering head, anyone will tremble.
Men Shi glanced at the backs of Su Changge and Ning Xingyao, and spoke slowly, in a voice that was trembling with nervousness: "When the carrier pigeons come back, we can retreat. However, I'm afraid we need to hold on for a few days.
...Although our sand city is easy to defend but difficult to attack."
He turned back and looked at the more than 600 people there.
The people knew that they were going to abandon the city, but when their officers and soldiers planned to defend the city, delay the progress of the enemy's attack and protect the people from leaving, they voluntarily stayed behind.
He slowly turned back, looked at the backs of Su Changge and Ning Xingyao, and said softly: "Thank you."
Su Changge, however, carried him on his back and did not accept his thanks. He waved his hand and said, "We'll say thank you after they successfully arrived!"
