Before He Lanlan left, he went to the temple in the mountains of the Qiang Wu Kingdom.
When the godly attendant inside saw him coming in, he asked, "My lord, do you want to have a romantic relationship?"
This kind of love... this thing is not unfamiliar to him.
Lian Yi had told him back then that women from the Qiang Wu Kingdom liked to worship gods. If they wanted to seek marriage, they would take a hair of the man they loved and go to the temple to ask the gods to help them plant a love thread.
Love threads are also feelings.
Basically, this kind of hair is buried under the skin of the wrist. Since the hair is buried very shallowly, from the outside it looks like a faint black line.
It is said that if the affection is always there, the black thread will always be there. If the affection is gone, the "thread of love" will also disappear.
When Lian Yi mentioned it at that time, He Lanlan specifically asked her if she had ever planted it before. Lian Yi shook his head and said, "I don't have anyone I like yet. Maybe I will plant it in the future if I do."
The past events are still vivid in my mind, but my old friends can no longer be touched.
He Lanlan was silent for a while in front of the statue, then smiled and said: "No need, I am a man, there is no need to do this."
The god's servant said: "Men can also plant love threads. I only need to take a hair of the girl I like to plant love threads."
He remembered the way Lian Yi looked when he saw her yesterday. Her black hair had all grown up.
Now that she is married, she must have already planted feelings for the person she loves.
He Lanlan said to the divine attendant: "No need, I can't get her hair anymore."
After saying this, he paid homage to the nerves and said: "May the gods protect people who are like-minded and bless lovers with success in their lives. I will repay my unfulfilled wish to them."
He didn't expect that he would say it so easily. Finally, he reconciled with his other persistent self in his heart, and decided to put an end to the regret of this love with his own hands.
After leaving the Qiang Wu Kingdom, He Lanlan rushed to the eastern camp without stopping, and the army had completed its deployment.
"It's just you. We can send out troops now." Xiang Ju'an was wearing armor and holding a frost-breaking knife in his hand. His domineering horse was beside him. He looked so majestic!
Xiang Ju'an arranged: "This time we send troops, Yingnian and I will take the lead, while Helan Jiyu and you two will defend from behind!"
Although Guan Jiyu and He Lanlan had not been in the camp for long, they were already used to leading the charge. Guan Jiyu was surprised by this arrangement and said: "General, in the past, He Lan and I were the vanguards who broke into the enemy's territory first.
, you have to be in charge of the deployment of the army and the command of tactics, would it be inappropriate if you were asked to take the lead?!"
Xiang Ju'an said: "Look, you have put yourselves into a fixed position. This is what I least want."
Everyone was puzzled, and he continued: "I know that all of you have learned something, but you can't always be satisfied with what you are good at."
Xiang Ju'an pointed at Guan Jiyu and He Lanlan and said: "You will only focus on attacking and attacking. War is endlessly changing. If we encounter a long-range attack, can you do it?"
He walked up to Jiang Yingnian again, poked Jiang Yingnian's chest with his finger, and said: "And you, can you just shoot a few arrows? If the bow is out of arrows, what will you do? Close combat skills
Are you okay?"
Everyone held their breath and listened quietly to Xiang Juan's lecture. His voice became louder and he said: "You are like this, and you still want to compete for the titles of 'Defender' and 'Defender' under me? You see?
Look at yourself, is there anyone worthy of you now?!"
Xiang Ju'an's words didn't sound nice, but they made sense.
After listening to his reprimand, everyone shouted in unison: "I must learn more and see more, and live up to the general's expectations!"
Xiang Juan said seriously: "Let's go!"
The vanguard team set off in a mighty manner, perhaps because Xiang Juan personally led the vanguard team at the front this time. Everyone in the army felt confident and more confident to win this battle.
There is a forest near the border of Zhenyu Kingdom. Jiang Yingnian once saw it from a distance when he was patrolling. This forest is lush and unfathomable, and it is the best natural barrier for Zhenyu Kingdom.
"Look, this forest is what I told you about before." Jiang Yingnian said to Xiang Ju'an: "I just took a look not far away. No one knows what is mysterious inside."
Xiang Ju'an said: "It is because of this protective barrier that they dare to come over to harass them repeatedly. They concluded that our army does not dare to pursue them. Today I will personally take off their masks. They are humans or ghosts. Let me first
Take a look!"
Jiang Yingnian nodded and said to the team behind him: "Ten people come out, follow me and go in first!"
Although Xiang Ju'an scolded them, he still felt uneasy when he saw Jiang Yingnian taking the initiative to enter the forest first. However, the journey of experience was like this step by step, and he could only say: "Everything is going to happen."
careful!"
As he spoke, he threw a jade whistle to Jiang Yingnian and warned: "This is what I have been wearing for many years, and now I give it to you. Remember, blow this whistle if necessary, and I will come immediately for reinforcements!"
Just by looking at the surface of the jade whistle, one could tell that it was a good thing. The rope tied to it was frayed. Jiang Yingnian put it on his neck and led people into the forest.
This is not the first time Jiang Yingnian has entered this kind of forest. The last time he chased Qu Mo's army in the north, he also chased him into the woods. However, it was late winter at that time, and the trees were all bare, no matter how big the forest was.
It's so good to hide people.
But now that spring is coming to an end, the forest in front of Zhen Yuguo has already grown lush and leafy. He must be extremely alert and careful every step of the way.
Jiang Yingnian patted one of them on the shoulder and said: "Go to the front to explore first. Remember, don't go too far. If there is no situation, just imitate a bird call as a secret signal."
The soldier who was ordered moved forward decisively to explore. Jiang Yingnian and the remaining nine soldiers waited on the spot, but after waiting for half a stick of incense, they did not hear any sound.
"It's been so long, what's going on?" Jiang Yingnian frowned and imitated a bird call, but after the sound fell, the forest fell silent again, without any response.
Jiang Yingnian noticed something strange and whispered to the nine people around him, "Follow closely and don't get separated!"
"Yes." The people behind him gathered together, always paying attention to whether there was anything strange around them.
Jiang Yingnian slowed down his steps and continued to walk slowly forward, his eyes keenly observing the surrounding disturbances.
A thick fog gradually spread in the woods. This fog came so strangely that before Jiang Yingnian could see clearly the direction it was coming, he was already surrounded by thick fog.
"Follow me!" Jiang Yingnian spoke this time, but no one responded. He suddenly turned back, and the nine people who were behind him had all disappeared.
He ran back a few steps, but still didn't see anyone.
Jiang Yingnian felt a chill in his heart. At this moment, he understood that this fog was not an ordinary fog. It was definitely a puzzle set up by the Really Foolish Country! He touched the jade whistle on his chest and thought that even if he blew the whistle, what would happen?
Before he could figure out the forest, the ten people following him had already disappeared. Rushing for support at this moment would only cause more people to fall into this confusion.
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in his ears, and Jiang Yingnian immediately shouted in the direction of the footsteps: "Is that you?"
No one answered, and the footsteps became farther and farther. Jiang Yingnian followed him for dozens of steps, and the footsteps disappeared again. When he stopped where he was, there were footsteps in another direction, so he followed them again, and the result was again.
After chasing him, he disappeared. The footsteps seemed to be teasing him on purpose, leading him to run around. After a few circles, Jiang Yingnian completely lost his direction.
Jiang Yingnian decided to ignore the footsteps. He took out a dagger from his arms and slashed the trees in front of him.
In the confusion, it is easy for a person to lose his way, let alone someone who is deliberately disturbing him. In order to avoid being kept spinning in the same place, Jiang Yingnian used a dagger to cut a hole in the tree wherever he went as a mark.
Through this method, Jiang Yingnian was able to quickly find the road he had not yet walked. After walking another hundred steps, the fog gradually faded.
His vision returned to clarity, but the scene in front of him made his back feel cold and his heart almost rose to his throat.
In front of Jiang Yingnian was a small area that was relatively empty, unlike the places he had just walked through that were all planted with trees. In this only place without trees, there was a row of corpses. No more, no less, exactly ten.
Those were the ten people who had just followed him into the woods. They were neatly displayed in front of Jiang Yingnian like dolls that had lost their lives. Someone must have done it deliberately. This was a naked provocation to him, and even more so.
an insult to him.
Jiang Yingnian was shocked, and anger suddenly came to his head, and he roared: "Come out! Come out!"
This time, the woods were no longer silent. There was a burst of laughter from all around. The sound was sharp and harsh, like sharp thorns scratching the heart. It was unclear whether it was a man or a woman. Jiang Yingnian didn't even know if it was a human voice.
.
"It's a human or a ghost, come out and speak to me!" He roared again.
The sharp voice echoed in the sky again, saying: "Guess, guess, if you guess it right, I'll give you candy~"
Jiang Yingnian's ears were filled with this sinister laughter, but the next scene was ten times more sinister than this laughter!
I saw the ten lifeless corpses in front of me, all of them suddenly stood up. They were not like normal human bodies, which require a process from lying down to standing up. They were more like puppets on strings, with their drooping limbs being violently raped.
The ground was pulled up, forming such a horrific scene that cannot be described in words.
Jiang Yingnian took a closer look and discovered that their necks, hands and feet were all covered with transparent threads. Unless they had excellent eyesight, it would be difficult for ordinary people to spot these thin threads.
They were like playthings that were forcibly pulled up to perform. Wherever the threads on their bodies pulled them, they would be pulled obediently.
Not only that, the sinister voice started talking again.
"They look very unhappy!"
"Why? Isn't dancing a very happy thing?"
"Look at them, none of them are smiling at all!"
"It doesn't matter, I'll make them laugh~"
Suddenly a paintbrush flew out of the air and painted on the ten corpses that were being pulled. Soon, their faces were all painted red with the vermilion paintbrush, and even their mouths were painted into grinning lips.
.
The voice gathered in Jiang Yingnian's ears from all around: "Hehehehehe, it's so fun, so fun~"
Ten people who were originally alive were treated as playthings by these yin and yang things, and they were played with at will. Even though they had lost their lives, they still suffered this insult!
"That's so funny!" Jiang Yingnian's chest felt uncomfortable and he gritted his teeth and said, "If you have the guts, show your true colors!"
The voice laughed again and said: "Okay, okay, since you want to see it so much, I'll satisfy you and let you take a look."
