Chapter 57: Destroying the family and destroying the country
The bloody rain from the sky basically wiped out the entire Yang army, leaving only a few hundred remaining soldiers. This was because they stayed behind in the Yingpan and did not enter the city.
Xu Mo stood on the hillside and looked at Jiangcheng in the distance. After they left the city, the ancient city finally fell into chaos. From a distance, the city was filled with firelight, with the location of the palace being the most violent.
The only old King Jiang lying on the sickbed was left in the royal family of King Jiang who was lying on the sickbed. Even if King Jiang was still alive, he was unable to stop the unrest. The Yang army was wiped out, and the remaining hundreds of remaining soldiers were probably unable to quell the Jiangcheng Rebellion. The leading general probably saw this and chose to withdraw the remaining troops to Qiuchi.
Recalling the fact that he met him on this hillside dozens of days ago, Long Yang invited him to Jiangcheng. Now that the scenery is still there and the person has passed away, Xu Mo couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
"When did you enter Jiangcheng?" Xu Mo asked Lu Yong and others behind him.
"After we parted with the leader, we went back to Lu Village first and cleaned up the... in Lu Village. Then we renovated the village and settled the women and children and injured brothers, and then returned to the vicinity of the mountain road to find out the news about the leader. Later, we heard that the leader was in Jiangcheng, so we were always near Jiangcheng, looking for an opportunity to enter the city." Lu Yong said.
"But Jiangcheng is very cautious and no longer opens the city gates and accepts scattered people. We have never had the chance to get into the city. We discuss that if Jiangcheng has nothing to do, the leader will not need our help, so we will leave on our own.
Unexpectedly, a fire broke out in Jiang City last night, and the sound of killing sounds shook the sky. The west gate and north gate of Jiang City were successively captured by the Yang army. The leader was in the city again, and he didn't know his life and death, which made us anxious. However, there were a large number of soldiers guarding the city gate, so we had no chance to get in.
I wanted to wait until the number of Yang State troops at the city gate decreased a little, so we forced ourselves into it and found the leader. Even if we couldn't connect the leader out of the city, we could still live and die with the leader." Fang Mao said.
"There are fewer soldiers in the Yang State guarding the west gate. We were about to enter the city, but blood rain started in Jiang City. When we saw that the soldiers in the Yang State guarding the city gate seemed to be splashed with tinder oil, they all screamed and fell to the ground and died.
If we were killed in the battlefield with the leader, it would be fine. If we were so strange, we were unwilling to die in vain, so we had to wait for the blood rain to stop and enter the city to find the leader. After entering the city, we were extremely lucky. We saw the leader fighting with the gangsters near the Ximen Gate. It must be that the leader was chivalrous and moved the sky, and with the protection of the gods, so dangerous that he could be safe and sound!" Lu Chen said with relief.
After listening to the narratives of Lu Yong and others, Xu Mo nodded and briefly told several people about his experiences with Dinah in Jiangcheng.
"What are the leaders' plans for the future? We are willing to follow the leaders!" Lu Yong and the other two looked at each other, clasped their fists to Xu Mo and said.
"Longsheng and Gao Jian's great revenge has been avenged. I will not do any dangerous things anymore. You don't have to worry. I will travel around the countries with Miss Wenwen in the future, so you don't have to follow me! But since you are determined, I have something else to ask you!" Xu Mo's heart moved and he spoke.
"Chief, please speak, we will go through fire and water, and we will never refuse!" Lu Yong and the other two responded in unison.
"Haha, you don't have to do this, this matter is not dangerous! You just need this..." Xu Mo slowly told them the matter.
Dinah was next to her but she became more and more frightened. If Xu Mo’s plan was really realized, then...
"Chief, see you!"
"Look goodbye!" Xu Mo smiled and hugged Lu Yong and others one by one, saying goodbye to everyone.
Seeing Lu Yong and the other two leaving again, Dinah walked to Xu Mo's side and asked a little hesitantly: "Brother K, do you really want them to do this?"
"Yes, I originally wanted to go by myself, but Lu Yong and the others had a lot of people and had plenty of time. It would be more appropriate to leave it to them." Xu Mo said lightly.
"But we have no benefit in doing this, and there will be many innocent people killed or injured!" Dinah said in a low voice with a look of indulgence.
"In this era of disputes between countries, only by realizing true unification will there be no innocent people's deaths and injuries. What's more, this has nothing to do with me! I have never been a good person. If a person respects me, I will respect others ten. If a person hurts my close relatives, I will let him destroy his family and destroy his country. Longsheng and Gao Jian are my brothers. How can Yang Ye be compensated by just killing one Yang Ye? It doesn't matter whether there is any profit." Xu Mo said coldly.
"Is the end of a war the beginning of another war?" Dinah said a little sadly.
"Let's go! It's time for us to leave this world!" After saying that, Xu Mo and Dinah's bodies turned into fluorescent lights on the hillside, one after another, retracting and releasing, and escaping through the air.
In the 22nd year of the Immortal Sword Age, after the demise of Jiang Kingdom, there were rumors in the Yang Kingdom that Yang Kingdom arrested thousands of children to sacrifice the blood-refining demon sword, angered the heavens, and brought down heavenly punishments, so that his army would be wiped out in the battle of Jiangcheng, and the national strength would be gone.
The following year, Jin State, one of the five heroes in the Spring and Autumn Period, used the excuse of advancing the heavens to conquer the Yang State. The Yang State was destroyed. The royal family was all sacrificed to the sky by the generals leading the Jin State, and the corpse was stormed to the top of the city.
...
When Xu Mo's soul mark appeared again, Xu Mo found that the soul mark did not appear in the original huge orange-yellow halo, but appeared directly in the vast universe starry sky. The stars in the starry sky were sometimes bright and sometimes dim, and flickering. Next to his soul mark was another petite and dazzling Liuling crystal, which should be Dinah, who had become Xu Mo's servant.
There is an orange-yellow translucent light shield around the soul mark of the two. The light shield wraps them inside. There are two three-dimensional screens inside the light shield, showing their respective experiences:
Xu Mo, dressed in linen cloth, stepped into Qiuchi, met Long Sheng and Gao Jian in the Sword Hall, and followed Yang Ye into the royal palace hall. He saved the child in the Blood Demon Cave and killed Jian Liao. Then Long Sheng and Gao Jian died one after another. After that, Xu Mo took over the bandits, rescued the villagers, attacked the scout of Yang Kingdom, and followed Long Yang into Jiangcheng.
