C8 The Memories of Ming Wa

Kong Sheng tilted his head and thought for a long time. Only then did he remember that when he was patrolling twenty days ago, he seemed to have saved this young master.

After and the rest of the Child Ming were saved by the Demonic Beast, they withdrew their Blue Moon Pass along with their clan members. A large portion of the goods had been destroyed by the Demonic Beast and most of the people in the group had also suffered losses. In the end, only twelve or thirteen people managed to safely return to the Blue Moon Pass, and almost everyone was injured. Among them, the heaviest injury was Second Master Chamber of Commerce of Ming Family. The old man's arm was torn off by the Demonic Beast and his entire being was in a coma.

The head shop assistant, Mingde had died, and the second master Ming had been severely injured and had fainted. The only one who could take charge of the situation seemed to be this young master Ming, who had just matured. It was a good thing that Young Master Ming was a good person and Second Master Ming was indeed heavily injured. Thus, the Ming Family caravan set up at the Blue Moon Pass camp, waiting for Second Master Ming to heal up, and also finding people to go to the Chamber of Commerce of Ming Family to ask for help.

More than ten days had passed, second master Ming's injuries had healed, and he was becoming more and more clear-headed. The heavy burden in Child Ming's heart was slowly alleviated. In order to relieve the pressure on this child, Second Master Ming also endured the pain and chatted and laughed with him. The group of people from Ming Family finally had a backbone, they were no longer as terrified as they were before.

However, just a few days ago, an unexpected calamity had fallen upon the citizens of the Blue Moon Pass and the people of the Chamber of Commerce of Ming Family who were temporarily staying here.

Child Ming clearly remembered that during the day, the Border Army in the city informed everyone that the Demonic King Valley had discovered some movement of the Devil Kingdom army. He estimated that in a day or two, the Devil Kingdom army would arrive. But at the same time, he also told everyone that Devil Kingdom would always come once or twice a year to surround and steal food, and did not loot everything they wanted, much less harm ordinary people. But for the sake of safety, Blue Moon Pass would close the city gates, and I hope that everyone will not go out of the city anymore, especially someone like the Horse Battalion Merchant Guild, who will only be staying for a few more days.

The Child Ming was naturally not worried about this matter. They had never planned to leave in the first place, and their Ming Family had been wandering around the border for many years. Although they could not say that they were not surprised by this, they were not overly anxious either. He even specially instructed the two waiters to buy some meat and wine while they were still in the city, so that the price of the dishes would not skyrocket for a long time.

In the evening, two waiters came back with wine and meat they had bought. One of them even brought two ducks with him, saying that it had been a long time since he had eaten these. Everyone chatted and laughed as they busied themselves with cooking. Although their conditions were not as good as those at home, those who had been running outside for a long time were already used to it.

On the first day of the month, wine and food were served. The group of people were eating, drinking, and laughing. At this time, the atmosphere suddenly changed.

He placed his wine cup on the table and raised a finger to signal everyone not to make a sound. Then he gently took out his knife and walked to the window. He carefully inserted the knife into the window crack and slowly exerted force to pry open a small crack.

As the windows slowly opened, sounds of people coming in could be heard. There were sounds of tables and chairs being smashed, weapons being used in combat, people's angry shouts and screams, and beasts' roars.

"Demonic Beast!" Second Master Ming said with a frown.

Hearing this, everyone was shocked. The rampage of the Wulian Mountain Range and Demonic Beast was not a rare occurrence, but they had never heard of the Demonic Beast entering the city. Especially this kind of border fortress, it was not something that normal Demonic Beast could barge into. But from the sounds outside, it was possible that a few hundred Demonic Beast had entered.

Second Master Ming didn't have time to say anything more and instructed everyone to busy themselves. They blocked the door, raided the people, and even tied up the duck to prevent it from attracting the Demonic Beast's attention. They were not Fire Phoenix Army and did not have the ability to fight against Demonic Beast. They could only rely on this relatively sturdy house as a barrier. Furthermore, even if Fire Phoenix Army were here, facing these hundreds of Demonic Beast, he would probably have to back down slightly.

Seeing that everyone was ready as per his orders, Second Master Ming gently opened the window. He wanted to see what was going on outside. However, as he opened the window, a strange fragrance drifted in through the gap in the window. Second Master Ming cried out. He wanted to close the window again, but it was already too late. He fell face-first onto the ground. As the Second Master Ming fell to the ground, everyone in the house let go of their swords and sabers. The clanging sounds were all over the place, and even Child Ming, who was hiding in the innermost area, felt dizzy and powerless.

Following that, the door was knocked, and the door that was locked by the table and chair was slowly pushed open. The few people in the room had already collapsed onto the ground powerlessly. They could only watch with their eyes, without the slightest bit of strength to resist.

Second Master Ming used his remaining hand to touch the dagger and stabbed his thigh. Using the short moment of clarity he got from the pain, he kicked Child Ming into the drain.

The moment Second Master Ming had covered the drain, the door was pushed open. The last scene that Child Ming caught a glimpse of was of Second Master Ming being pushed down to the ground by a gigantic Demonic Beast.

When Child Ming woke up, other than the broken tables, chairs and a few bloodstains, there was no one else in the room. He carefully crawled up from the gutter. Just as he was about to go out and take a look, he heard someone talking outside. The extreme fear and anger made him lose his judgement, and it just so happened that Kong Sheng and the others did not ride a horse, nor wore the Fire Phoenix Army symbol of a heavy armor, which made it natural for Child Ming to believe that they were together with the group of people outside. With the thought of "killing one would be enough, killing two would earn one", he first took out the dead duck from the corner of the wall, and threw it towards Zhao Handong to attract his attention. Then, he used the firewood knife he picked up from the ground to chop it off. And only when the two Knights of Fire Phoenix Army arrived did Child Ming dispel the misunderstanding. Only then did he understand that the person in front of him was a friend and not an enemy.

After listening to the narration, Kong Sheng sighed, luckily the Blue Moon Pass was a border army town, otherwise, this child would have nowhere to hide, in the end, he would not be able to hide, and even more so, he would not be able to tell them what happened that night.

Zhao Handong also calmed down and asked Kong Sheng: "Old Kong, this Demonic Beast's invasion time is basically the same as the Devil Kingdom's invasion, is it possible that they colluded with each other?"

Kong Sheng frowned, and only after a long while did he shake his head: "At the very least, I have never heard of anyone discussing anything with those Demonic Beast, could it be that there's someone with such a deep understanding of the Goblin Language in the Devil Kingdom, capable of communicating with the Demonic Beast?"

Child Ming drank most of the water in the water sac that the rider handed to him in one breath, wiped his mouth and said again: "Masters, I have something else to report."

Kong Sheng nodded his head, "Hurry up and tell us, the more you talk, the more we will know what's going on."

Child Ming scratched his head, "But I might not be too accurate with my words."

Zhao Handong stared at him, "The one who has to say is you, and the one who isn't is you! If you are not sure, then we will naturally judge! "

Child Ming hesitated for a moment, then said: "After my second grandfather was pushed down, I seem to have seen a woman's skirt flash past."

"Woman? The corner of her skirt? " Kong Sheng and Zhao Handong looked at each other and asked at the same time.

Child Ming nodded his head, "At that time, I was lying in the drain, and after my second grandfather was thrown down, I seem to have heard footsteps. At that time, because the city was filled with Demonic Beast, I thought that someone had come to save us, so I struggled to open my eyes to take a look, but all I saw was a flash at the corner of a skirt, and then, I lost consciousness and fainted. "

Zhao Handong glanced at Kong Sheng, and then asked Child Ming with a strange expression: "Kid, how long do you think you've been unconscious for?"

Child Ming was startled, and replied subconsciously: "Isn't that what happened last night?"

Kong Sheng let out a heavy sigh, "Young Master, an entire eleven days have passed since the military news was reported by the Blue Moon Pass!"

Child Ming was completely stunned, he couldn't help but take a few steps back and sat down on the ground, mumbling to himself, "Ten, eleven days? I've been out for so long? Then what about me, my second grandfather, and the others? "Isn't it already ~ ~ ~" halfway through speaking, the child was already crying loudly.

Zhao Handong was a little sad in his heart, he gently shook his head and said, "It's already been eleven days since I fainted, to be able to live is a miracle. As for the others …

Kong Sheng suddenly waved his hand, saying, "Others may not be killed."

"What do you mean?" Zhao Handong asked with a puzzled expression.

Kong Sheng muttered to himself for a while and said: "If it was the Demonic Beast that attacked the city, then it would have been fine to kill them all. Even if I dragged them back to the city to make food, it wouldn't be so cleanly dealt with. And most importantly, this young master has been in a coma for 11 full days. I reckon that the other people in this city will also be in a coma for about the same amount of time.

Zhao Handong listened and nodded his head, "That makes sense, but if it's really as you say, then it's true that there's a relationship between the Devil Kingdom and the Demonic Beast, are the demon bastards powerful enough to control the Demonic Beast now?"

Kong Sheng said with a solemn expression, "Before I personally saw it, I could not make a decision, and the dress that this Young Master Ming spoke of might not be real either. "However, from the various indications, it's indeed possible. After all, their coordination in terms of time is too good ~"

"Then what should we do now?" Zhao Handong asked.

Kong Sheng turned around and waved at the few underlings beside him, "Inform the brothers to retreat! No matter what, we have to inform Phoenix City Pass first. If Devil Kingdom really colluded with Demonic Beast, then Phoenix City Pass would be even more dangerous! "

A few riders bowed to Kong Sheng on their horses, and after that, they turned their horses and started to rush to the various places to inform the soldiers of Fire Phoenix Army. Kong Sheng then pulled Child Ming up, and said to him: "Let's go, I'll send you back to Phoenix City Pass."

Child Ming silently wiped away his tears and nodded in agreement.

Just as they were converging at the entrance, a knight flew from afar and shouted at Kong Sheng from afar, "Lord Kong! It's an enemy! "

Kong Sheng was startled, the Knight was released by him to the Demonic King Valley to be a scout, and immediately asked: "What happened? "Hurry up and report!"

The rider swallowed his saliva and said anxiously, "We found a scout at the entrance of Demonic King Valley Valley."

Kong Sheng scolded: "Could it be that you have never seen a Devil Kingdom scout before? Why are you so flustered? "

The rider hastily answered, "Sir, they have three tiger flags!"

Hearing the two words "Tiger Flag", Kong Sheng's face also changed. He turned around and shouted to the Knights behind him, "No matter what price you have to pay, hurry back to Phoenix City Pass!"
