Chapter 447 Rescue (2)
Chapter 447 Rescue (2)
Yelu Jin did not dare to stay any longer. No matter whether Murong Yanhui was bluffing or not, it would be better to return to the camp as soon as possible. Besides, Mr. Lan was anxious to meet the man who broke his formation!
Thinking of this, Yelu Jin personally stepped forward to arrest Murong Yanhui and said to the people around him: "Hurry up and take these people back. These Canghe people are always cunning. Don't fall into their trap."
Murong Yanhui sneered, "Yelü Jin, your courage has become smaller and smaller, just like your mind. I used to regard you as an opponent, but now it seems that you are not worthy at all."
"Hmph, Murong Yanhui, no matter what you say, it's you who's being held captive, not me. We'll discuss everything once you arrive at the Northern Kingdom's military camp." Yelu Jin seemed somewhat complacent. "Then how about I play along with you?"
Murong Yanhui stopped talking, and Yelu Jin didn't say anything more to him. He just asked Yelu Han, "What's wrong? Haven't you found the person yet?"
"Yes!"
"Then you take some people to stay and continue searching, and I will take the others back first."
"Yes, I send you off, Your Highness!"
Yelu Han was ordered to stay, but Xiluo, who was hiding in the dark, caught a glimpse of a figure approaching stealthily from a distance.
Xiluo was delighted, thinking that Linzhi must have brought reinforcements. It seemed that the master and the others were saved!
Linzhi and his companions also saw Yelu Han and his group from afar, but they did not see Murong Yanhui and his companions. They couldn't help but feel a little worried for a moment. After a glance, they decided to eliminate this small group of people. This was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
So, this group of elite soldiers took advantage of the night and surrounded the Northern soldiers. A moment later, most of the Northern soldiers were killed by arrows. Yelu Han was also injured, but his reaction was much faster than others. After being attacked, he immediately hid behind a huge rock.
What Yelu Han didn't expect was that there was a master hiding behind the rock. So, he felt a pain in the back of his head and lost consciousness.
Linzhi stood among the corpses and did not find Murong Yan coming back to them. She couldn't help but frown. It seemed that they were still a step slow. Moreover, it seemed that the leader had disappeared. At this moment, someone discovered that there was someone behind the rock.
"Who is it, come out!"
"One of our own!"
Xiluo slowly walked out from behind the rock, dragging the unconscious Yelu Han with one hand.
When Linzhi saw Xiluo was still there, he was surprised and happy, and hurried forward to ask what happened.
"Where are Brother Yan and the others? What's their current situation?"
"There were too many of them. I couldn't succeed. The general ordered not to attack by force."
Xiluo gave a brief account of the situation. Linzhi angrily asked, "So you just hid away, not caring about the lives of others?"
Xiluo glanced at her coldly and said, "This was the best choice at the time."
"What's the best choice? It's obvious that you are a coward. If Brother Yan and the others were brought into the military camp, things would be terrible."
"I've already thought of this, so we must prepare for the worst. If the general and his men are taken into the Northern Kingdom's military camp, how are we going to rescue them?"
"There's no way to save them outside, so wouldn't it be even more impossible to save them once they're in the Northern Kingdom's military camp?"
"That's not necessarily true. The most dangerous place is also the safest. Although the Northern Kingdom's military camp is heavily guarded, the defense is certainly looser than outside. So, as long as we can get in, it means we're halfway to success."
"Everything is just your guess. Besides, how are we going to get in?"
Lin Zhi was dissatisfied, thinking Xiluo was joking, but Xiluo smiled and said, "If it was before, it might not work, but now..."
Xiluo pulled the person in front of Linzhi while speaking, "With this person's help, everything will be fine."
"Who is he?"
"The Great General of the Northern Kingdom, Yelu Han! He is also the vanguard commander this time! I heard that the Emperor of the Northern Kingdom values him very much."
Lin Zhi looked at Xiluo with suspicion, "Is this really feasible?"
“You’ll know if it works or not if you try it.”
Xiluo looked determined to win!
In the Northern Kingdom's military camp, Yelu Jin, full of vigor and enthusiasm, led Murong Yanhui and the others into the tent and shouted, "Come here, prepare the banquet! I want to drink a few cups today!"
Soon the soldiers went down to prepare, and King Yelu He was soon invited over, along with Mr. Lan.
When Mr. Lan appeared in front of Yu Qingli, she recognized him at a glance. He was indeed the same person who set up the formation in her previous life. It was just that this person should have been at the border of Dong Tang at that time, but no one knew why he ended up here.
It seems that because of her, this world seems to have deviated a lot from what he remembers.
Yelu Jin seemed very excited. He even had his men loosen the ropes on Murong Yanhui and others. Anyway, Murong Yanhui and Yu Lihan had been drugged and could not move at all, and Yu Qingli knew no martial arts at all.
When Yelu He came in, he saw his own prince sitting opposite several young men he didn't know, drinking and chatting happily. If someone didn't know them, they would definitely think they were good friends rather than rivals.
"What exactly is going on?"
"Uncle Wang, you are here. Come and meet my captive, the great general of the Canghe Kingdom, the dignified King of Yan, Murong Yanhui!"
Yelu He saw Murong Yanhui sitting across the table at a glance. He had met this man once ten years ago. At that time, he was just a frail boy, but he was already very familiar with deploying troops and could handle the battlefield with ease. He even earned the title of God of War. Today, ten years later, he has become more mature and seems to be even more powerful. It is really admirable. With such a person in Canghe, it is really difficult to annex Canghe.
"So it's the King of Yan. I've heard of your great name for a long time." Yelu He was quite polite as he returned the toast to Murong Yan.
Murong Yanhui also responded very politely: "Thank you, Your Highness. I am your junior. There is no need to be so polite. This glass of wine should be toasted to you."
Murong Yanhui drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. Yu Lihan, who was sitting next to him, secretly complained to himself, what was going on? Why didn't this enemy seem like an enemy, but instead seemed like an old friend meeting again?
Yu Qingli also found it amusing. It seemed that the prince of the Northern Kingdom respected Murong Yanhui very much. Didn’t he see that the prince of the Northern Kingdom had changed his expression?
Yelu Jin's face was indeed very ugly at this time. He called Yelu He and others over to show off his achievements and humiliate the captive Murong Yanhui and others. Unexpectedly, Yelu He started drinking with Murong Yanhui directly. Did he take him, the prince, seriously?
The more Yelu Jin thought about it, the more angry he felt. His already red eyes became even deeper and colder, looking like an icy snake, giving people goose bumps all over their bodies.
Yelu He obviously realized that his behavior was inappropriate, but he was also reluctant to fight this inexplicable war because he valued talents. Not to mention, he did not want to fight this inexplicable war, which not only cost the people a lot of money and labor, but also cost the lives of many innocent soldiers.
Yelu He glanced at the pretentious Mr. Lan with a bad look, and then sat down next to Murong Yanhui.
Yu Qingli and Murong Yanhui exchanged glances. It seemed that not everyone in the Northern Kingdom's court wanted to go to war. It seemed that this King Bingxiang had a different opinion from Yelu Jin.
Mr. Lan didn't care about Yeluhe's gaze. He just looked at Yu Qingli and asked, "Did you break the formation I set up?"
Yu Qingli met Mr. Lan's gaze without the slightest fear. Her eyes were clear and calm, and she said in a cold voice, "So what if it is, and so what if it isn't?"
Mr. Lan suddenly laughed. "It seems like you really cracked it. Have you ever heard of Taoist Lan Shan?"
Yu Qingli was stunned. Taoist Lanshan was the master she and Murong Feng met by chance in their previous life. It was he who helped them break the formation at that time. And from the master's mouth, Yu Qingli heard that the person in front of her should be considered a traitor to their clan.
Seeing Yu Qingli in a daze, Mr. Lan seemed to have determined that she had some relationship with the Blue Mountain Taoist. Even his tone of voice became kind and gentle. "Don't be nervous, sir. I was just asking casually. I just wonder how the Blue Mountain Taoist is doing recently."
Yu Qingli pondered for a moment and responded, "The Taoist is very good, but he asked me to pass on a message to you, sir. Misfortunes sent by heaven are unforgivable, but those brought upon oneself are unforgivable!"
Mr. Lan's face paused at first, then he hurriedly filled the glass in front of him and drank it, then hurriedly left.
Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment, especially Yu Qingli. She didn't even know what this person was so afraid of. He suddenly left in a hurry, and even Yelu Jin felt embarrassed. These two people who came today were really more unreliable than the other.
However, all this did not affect Yelu Jin's good mood. After eating and drinking to his heart's content, he overturned the food and wine with red eyes, and some of it even splashed on Murong Yanhui's face.
Yelu Jin looked down at Murong Yanhui's face and said, "What? Do you really think you are my guests? It seems that you guys haven't realized your situation yet. Murong Yanhui, aren't you worried that I will kill you?"
Murong Yanhui just sat there quietly without saying a word. Such a reaction obviously made Yelu Jin very unhappy. He raised his foot and kicked Murong Yanhui directly in the chest, knocking Murong Yanhui to the ground. Then, without waiting for Murong Yanhui to stand up, he stepped on his head.
Yelu Jin's sudden attack made the other two very angry. Yu Qingli's heart was in a knot, but she also knew that she could not save Murong Yanhui at all, and she could not even save herself.
