Chapter 462 1 Empty City
Chapter 462 1 Empty City
The 400,000-strong army marched all the way to Chuzhong before splitting into two groups.
Before leaving, Chu Yun found Yan Shu.
"Princess, what do you want me to do for you?" Although he said so, Yan Shu kept looking at her, as if he wanted to engrave her appearance into his mind and imprint it in his heart.
"This is a purse I made myself. It contains some medicine and a lucky charm I got from Kaishan Temple. I'm giving it to you. I hope you have a safe journey." Chu Yun lowered her eyes and said gently. But she didn't dare to look at him, perhaps because she was afraid of being rejected.
After a pause, she added: "If you don't want, I..."
Before he finished speaking, Yan Shu had already taken the purse, as if he was afraid that Chu Yun would regret it. His movements were so fast that it seemed like he was snatching it.
"I want it! Thank you, Princess. Everything will go smoothly this time. Besides, we are just going to set up camp there first. The battle will not start until the prince arrives! Princess, don't worry!" Yan Shu said solemnly.
He still looked at Chu Yun with burning eyes.
Chu Yun felt embarrassed by his gaze, and her face became hot. She whispered, "I'm not worried about you."
Both of them were very restrained.
"In that case, I'll go back." In fact, Chu Yun had a lot of things she wanted to say to him, but when they came to her lips, she didn't know which one to say first.
Let’s wait until the war is over!
"Yeah." Yan Shu nodded, still looking at her.
Chu Yun turned around and left, but after taking two steps, she was suddenly called.
"Hmm? Is there anything else?" Chu Yun looked at him in confusion.
Yan Shu stepped forward and pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly.
A deep voice sounded beside my ears: "Take care of yourself too! Goodbye!"
After he finished speaking, without waiting for Chu Yun to speak, he turned and left. He got on his horse and galloped away.
Chu Yun was left standing there in a daze, staring at his back. It took her a long time to come back to her senses, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Shen Yindi and Si Qi came over with ambiguous smiles on their faces.
Chu Yun couldn't help but laugh: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Lin Shuya also came over and stood in front of her with the same ambiguous smile on her face.
Shen Yindi walked up to her, put his arm around her shoulders, and asked with a smile: "Sister Yun, tell us honestly, did Yanshu express his feelings to you just now? That's why he hugged you!"
Several girls' eyes sparkled, and they really wanted to know. They were all very concerned about Sister Yun's lifelong event, after all, she was the eldest sister, but she was still alone.
Chu Yun said calmly: "No, he didn't say anything."
Si Qi on the side exclaimed: "Ah? He hugged you without saying anything? Isn't that what a lecher does? It seems like I have to beat him up the next time I see him!"
She had already raised her fist and spoke in a fierce voice.
Shen Yindi raised an intriguing smile at the corner of her mouth: "Qi'er is right, Sister Yun is not married yet, and Yanshu hugged you in front of so many people, and the whole army saw it! He must be responsible for you!"
"Qier and Adi are right. If he doesn't take responsibility, then we will beat him up together!" Lin Shuya concluded.
Chu Yun laughed, and the slight feeling of loss she had just felt was instantly swept away.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. When I see him later, I'll settle the score with him!" She agreed with a smile.
"Ah."
After resting for an hour, they set off.
This is the 200,000-strong army led by Chu Yan. Mu Ningyuan and Lord Lu are both in the team.
Leng Xiao and Si Yin, two people in the martial arts world, did not show up, and their whereabouts were unknown.
Si Qi didn't ask her brother where he was going, after all, he had his own things to do.
As for Leng Xiao, he disappeared after Lin Yuan gave him those letters that day and left.
Lin Shuya was quite depressed about this.
That man was so rude! He didn't even tell her he was leaving. Was he afraid that she would pester him?
Now she followed Adi to fight in the war and had no time to look for him.
Wait until the war is over and then find out more about it.
Now many things are scheduled until the end of the war.
This time they asked for a carriage, and the women sat in it. Otherwise, the journey was too long and riding a horse would be too much for them.
When they arrived in Chuzhong, General Qi came to see them and just gave them some instructions, but did not delay their journey.
It will take another half a month to get to Chunan from here, and they are already walking very fast this time.
I get up early and go to bed late, just wanting to arrive as quickly as possible.
Fortunately, enough military pay was prepared before departure to prevent the soldiers from starving.
The journey was relatively smooth and we did not encounter any obstacles.
Probably knowing that Chu Yan is leading the team personally, anyone who comes will be seeking death!
Who is not afraid of death?
At times like this, you can only keep your tail between your legs.
Finally, after a month's journey, they arrived at the border of southern Chun at noon that day.
Chu Yan did not go directly into the city, but instead camped a few miles outside the city.
Before coming, a vanguard was sent to gather information. The vanguard was led by Shadow and Cangwu, a 300-man army.
Chu Yan, Mu Ningyuan, Shen Yindi, Si Qi, Lin Shuya and others sat together.
Lin Shuya and Leng Xiao came here together last time and stayed here for more than a month, so they are already very familiar with this place.
At this time, Lin Shuya was telling them about some things that happened last time she came here.
"There aren't many decent Da Chu people in this border city. They are all Miao people. This is where the Miao people live."
"There were already many people from Zhaoyue in the city at that time. There were basically no people from Da Chu."
"Then we were hunted and went to the countryside."
"There is a strange smell in the city that makes people uncomfortable."
Shen Yindi took over her words: "This is where the Miao people live. These people are good at using Gu. They can also develop some medicines."
"If every household burns that kind of incense, a smell will fill the city. If you smell that smell for a long time, you will be poisoned and may suffer from various physical discomforts."
She explained it to them seriously.
"Is anything going to happen to Anying and Cangwu when they go into the city to investigate?" Si Qi was a little worried.
"It's okay. I've prepared detoxification pills and cooling detoxifying ointment for them. If they smell something wrong, they will definitely cover their mouths and noses and avoid smelling the odor. And leave as soon as possible."
This was what Chu Yan instructed before Shadow and Cangwu set off.
"That puts me at ease."
"These people from Zhaoyue Country are insidious and cunning, and full of tricks. They must have been prepared in advance knowing that we are coming." Shen Yindi said thoughtfully.
"Let's discuss this when they come back." Chu Yan's voice was low. In fact, he had already thought of this.
For such a small border town, he brought 200,000 people here, which was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
In this situation, he would not allow failure and did not even want to lose a single soldier.
About an hour passed.
Shadow, Cangwu and the others are back.
The two of them looked a little solemn.
"Reporting to the prince, there is an empty city inside."
"The city is empty, but there is something else!"
