C25 Phoenix Cry

After walking out of the relay station, Ling Luo's mood was downcast. Jun Ximo brought up her memories, reminding her of Baili Nange, the man that she would always bury in her heart.

She walked to the edge of the cliff not far from the station and leaned against a rock, looking up at the last rays of sunlight. His eyes turned hazy and his heart ached.

Is Master okay? Then would the Holy Blood Herb and the thousand year congregation be able to dispel his poison? Given how skilled his Dragon Roar medical technique is, he should be able to treat it, right?

Would he miss her? Are you still angry with her?

Closing her eyes, her tears fell. Her mind was filled with Baili Nange's smiling face and voice.

"Luo, come over here. Big brother will teach you how to play the zither!"

"Big Brother, Luo wants to learn 'Feng Qiuhuang'."

"Why?"

"Because... Luo likes Big Bro, so she'll play for you every day once she learns' Feng Qiuhuang '. "

"Silly girl!"

Feng Ji Feng! Of all the pieces, she remembered, her favorite was this one. Although Baili Nange had scolded her lightly, he taught her without reservation.

She could feel that his affection for her had reached the point of heaven's wrath. If she were to leave the Ice Polar Palace just like that, would he feel sad? Would he send someone to find her?

No, he might not find it! Her disguise was better than his, and it lasted. She had been in the military camp for so long that she had not revealed a single flaw.

His heart felt heavy, as if a rock had been pressed down on it.

She randomly picked up a slightly yellowish leaf from the ground and put it into her mouth, blowing gently. Ye Xian's voice was very monotonous, but it was also very pleasing to the ear. There was a strange tune in the dull barracks that was striking, but she didn't realize it.

The afterglow of the curtain falls and her singing, coupled with the bleak autumn, make people feel a faint sense of disappointment.

Jun Ximo walked out of the relay station and saw Ling Luo sitting on the edge of the cliff. He frowned and became even more suspicious of this little brat: a tune like 'Feng Qiuhuang' was definitely not something that an ordinary family could coax.

Who was she? Why is it so mysterious? Was it a spy? However, her eyes were so clear that they didn't seem like those of a spy.

He slowly walked forward and stood behind Ling Luo. Looking at the skinny and lonely back, traces of pity could be seen in his eyes.

"Why are you bragging about 'Feng Su Feng'? This kind of tune is usually liked by women. "

His cold voice alarmed Ling Luo. She suddenly turned around and saw Jun Ximo. She quickly wiped away the tears on her face and stood up.

"Great General, why did you come out?"

"After hearing such a distant tune, Ben Wang thought it was the daughter of some rich family. He didn't expect it to be one of Ben Wang's soldiers. Little Luo, you truly make people look at you in a new light."

"Great General, you flatter me. This is only something Master played when he missed Mistress. I just learned a little bit." She lowered her head, not daring to look into Jun Ximo's eyes, because he was too shrewd.

"Oh? Is that so? " Jun Ximo looked at the horizon, and a trace of reminiscence appeared in his eyes. "According to what this king knows, there are only two people in Yanhuang Continent that can perfectly hit this song. One of them is Ice Polar Palace's Palace Lord, Baili Nange!"

The other was his mother, Chu Ningqiu. She was a talented woman who had died a long time ago.

Ling Luo couldn't help but shiver when she heard Baili Nange's name. Her nose turned sour. She turned her head slightly to look at the distant mountain, trying to calm her emotions. She must not let Jun Ximo know her identity, much less let him suspect her.

"Who is Baili Nange that Great General is talking about? I don't think I've ever heard of it. "

"Him? He's an old friend, right?"

Old friends? Was it an enemy? Otherwise, why did you do everything you could to harm him? Jun Ximo, I will definitely make you pay for what you did. She thought to herself, her eyes turning cold.

As the sky turned dark, it became dark and indistinct. The mountain wind blew gently, carrying with it the scent of the primitive wilderness.

Ling Luo turned her head to look at Jun Ximo before lowering her head again, "Great General, it's too late. Please return to the relay station first."

"This King wants to stay a while longer. You can leave."

Because of that 'Phoenix Praying Phoenix', he once again thought of his mother who had passed away prematurely. He no longer had any impression of her, for if he had not been born, she would have died. The only thought he had was a portrait of his mother that his painter left behind for him to sketch out.

"Then I'll take my leave first."

Ling Luo glanced at him in confusion and quickly left. The moment she returned to the military camp, Lee Yan and his buddies immediately gathered around and looked at her with admiration.

"Luo, I didn't expect you to know the rhythm! What was the name of the song? "It's so nice to listen to." Lee Yan grabbed her hand and said excitedly, as if she had given him face by playing a song.

Ling Luo's mood was very low. She cast a sidelong glance at him before frowning helplessly. "Commander Li, why is a brute like you have such a goal?" I'm not in a good mood, so ignore me. "

"Hey, why are you talking to the captain? In front of my brothers, you must remember to leave me some face, understand? " Lee Yan was immediately unhappy after being looked down upon. He held her back and refused to let her go.

"Do you even have a captain?" "So reckless."

"Didn't you say I'm a barbarian? "How can a boorish person not be reckless?"

"..." Ling Luo looked at him speechlessly, then walked silently towards the tent.

She didn't want to talk to anyone. She hated to look at anyone. The more she thought about Baili Nange, the more she wanted to go back. However, she had yet to avenge her brothers, so she couldn't leave.

"It's time to eat, it's time to eat!"

The fire army started shouting outside the tent. Ling Luo looked up and did not go out. She was not in the mood to eat, especially the plain food. It wasn't at all comfortable to eat moldy brown rice in the military camp while holding his mouth in the Ice Polar Palace.

Suddenly, he really missed the time to eat with his master. He always gave her food gracefully, calmly watching her wolf down.

"I'm telling you, if I didn't see you save me, I wouldn't even care about you."

Lee Yan's unhappy voice sounded out at the entrance of the tent. He immediately came in with a bowl of rice porridge and a steamed bun in his hand. He walked up to Ling Luo and placed her down with a heavy thud, glaring at her.

"Eat!"

"... "Thank you, Commander Li." Ling Luo was a little touched. She picked up the bowl and took a sip silently.

"Here!" Lee Yan took out another egg for her, this is a benefit that every leader has, little soldiers can't eat it, "Look at your skinny body, add some nutrition."

"... I don't need it, you eat it, you are our leader. " Ling Luo glanced at the egg eagerly but held it in.

"If I tell you to eat, then eat. Come with me to patrol later."

"Sure!"

She accepted the egg with great enthusiasm, and after smelling it for a while, she slowly peeled it open and ate it little by little. Lee Yan glanced at the egg reluctantly, then turned around and walked out.

The night patrol was a very boring affair. Six people in a group would be patrolling once every four hours. Lee Yan and the others were on duty when it was time for Hai Zhong and Zi to arrive. He called six people from his team and started patrolling along the road around the relay station with a torch.

"Luo, why did you leave so quickly?" Seeing Ling Luo walking alone at the front, Lee Yan called out to her.

"This place is a mountain and a cliff. Thus, it is unlikely for there to be an ambush. Of course, we can go a bit faster." Ling Luo said indifferently, her pace still not slowing down.

Hearing that, Lee Yan strode forward and looked at her in surprise, "You know how to fight?"

"No way!"

"Learning military skills?"

"... Commander Li, if you continue asking such unconstructive words, I'll get angry. "Common sense, common sense, do you understand?" Ling Luo pulled him to the edge of the cliff, and pointed at the smooth cliff below. "Do you think there's an ambush coming up from here? Do you know why the post station was built on a mountain? It was easy to defend, but hard to attack. "Look, you're still the leader. Don't tell others that you know me."

"Luo, I didn't expect you to know so much. What other strange ideas do you have? " Lee Yan laughed instead of getting angry, pulling her along like an idiot who thirsted for knowledge.

Ling Luo slapped his hand away and frowned unhappily, "You just need to think about these things more often. You need to use your brain when you see the problem." Just like your hand was injured, if you had used your arm to block it, that snake would not have been able to injure you because it could not pierce through the armor. "

"... "Ah, yes, you're right." Lee Yan replied slowly.

"Alright, let's go over there and take a look. There's a pass there, there will be a business trip there."

"Alright!"

With a few words, Ling Luo immediately made Lee Yan worship her as though she was a god. Not only him, but Xiaowu and Lil 'Six who came along with her also deeply admired her.

As the six of them turned from the cliff towards the pass, a shadow flashed by, as fast as lightning, and no one but Ling Luo noticed. Although her martial arts had been sealed, her reaction was still very fast.

"She looked at the dark place for a long time, then silently followed Lee Yan and left." Commander Li, where is Tuoba Ye locked up? Is someone watching? "

"In the dungeon of the relay station, there are six guards that are sent by the rich."

"Why would such an important prisoner send so few people? You might as well take someone for a walk, just in case. "

Ling Luo was sure that someone had gone to the relay station, but she wasn't sure if that person was targeting Tuoba Ye. However, other than him, there was no one else in the military camp that could attract outsiders.

Lee Yan had a blind admiration for her, so when he heard her words, he immediately sent Xiaowu, Xiao Liu and a bunch of soldiers. However, just as they walked out of the dungeon, they saw the six guards lying in pools of blood.

"Commander Li, someone is robbing the prison!"

Xiaowu shouted and quickly surrounded the entrance of the dungeon with his comrades, but he did not dare to rush in. Lee Yan hurriedly reported the situation to Yun Zhan as he hurried over.

Ling Luo carelessly followed them. Looking at the crowd, she lowered her head and squeezed through the crowd.

The one who was stopped was a masked man. Seeing that there were a lot of people, he didn't care about Tuoba Ye anymore and brandished his sword as he tried to charge out of the dungeon. He probably didn't expect that the matter that he had clearly been able to succeed would suddenly turn into a completely different situation.

Looking at the densely packed crowd, his sinister eyes constantly searched for an opportunity to escape.

When Ling Luo saw this person's eyes, she immediately thought of Situ Yunhao, Ninth Prince's Grade One Guard. They had exchanged blows, and he was definitely not weak. If it wasn't for her scheming, she wouldn't have been able to harm him.

Could it be that Ninth Prince had colluded with someone from Northern Jin State? Or was it just him colluding with an enemy?

Such a thought appeared in her mind, causing her heart to sink even further. She snuck up to Lee Yan and whispered into his ear, "This person looks powerful, but his door protection is only an inch away from his left shoulder."

Then she pushed her way through the crowd again, as if it were none of her business.
