Chapter 950 Life and Death in Doubt

(PS: Today’s chapter is about 4,000 words, so it’s a big chapter. <. It’s hard to separate, so I’ll post it together. Don’t blame me, don’t blame me!)

In the hinterland of the north, a small town.

The gray-clothed army was temporarily stationed in the camp, and in the conference hall used for discussions, there was a lot of discussion and a lot of people.

Suddenly, wah - Huoran stood up, papers flying. The wooden chair fell backwards, and the feet of the stool moved back three feet against the stone floor, making a sharp and harsh sound.

In the hall, there was silence for a moment! A group of high-ranking generals froze their movements with expressions of astonishment, and subconsciously turned their heads to look in the direction of the leader. The leader, Josiah, who stood up with an expression of inexplicable fright, was speechless for a moment.

In silence, outside the half-open door not far away, the sound of heavy rain could be clearly heard. With some popping noises, it was the raindrops hitting the eaves, making a smashing sound.

At this time, "Ahem..." a light cough finally broke the silence. Frey stood up from the table and followed Joshua's unwavering gaze to the closed window on the south side of the room, then paused. He looked back without knowing why, "What's wrong, leader? Is there something wrong?"

"Huh? No... I don't know. I suddenly had a feeling just now, as if..." He raised his hand and rubbed the side of his head. Joshua hesitated for a moment, and stopped talking several times. Finally, he took a deep breath, spread his hands and shook his head lightly, "It's nothing. Sorry, maybe I haven't had a good rest recently, and I scared everyone."

"Oh, it's nothing. Just be fine, chief."

"Get some rest, chief... Although you are busy with work, the most important thing is your body..."

"Isn't there a theater in the city? Chief, why don't you take some time to sit there. To relieve your fatigue..."

…

The atmosphere warmed up, and faced with the concern and consolation from the senior generals, Josiah smiled and saluted again to express his thanks. Then he pulled back the wooden chair and sat down again, seemingly everything was as usual.

It’s not that no one doubted it, at least Frey noticed the look on Josiah’s hesitant expression. But Josiah didn't want to talk about it, so this sudden episode was naturally revealed.

The meeting continued, and the atmosphere was still lively, but always a little strange.

One is because Josiah has not said anything since he sat down. Although there is nothing unusual about his appearance. But old people like Frey are familiar with Joshua's habits. Seeing the latter's fingers pinching the corner of the map information page from time to time and other inadvertent movements, it was known that she was distracted and her attention was obviously not in the conference hall at the moment.

The second is Lansha on the side. Nowadays, everyone in the gray army is dissatisfied with this mysterious woman who jumped in the queue not long ago and strongly aspired to the position of supreme commander of the army. Even though the former has always maintained a slight sense of alienation that has never changed. Responsible only for commanding military operations. The indifferent attitude of not asking anything about the other affairs of the Gray Army. But just look at the gray army's current solid record. All the officers and generals had to praise her highly...

From this perspective, Lan Sha's previous statement - she does not need to be welcomed, as long as the gray army generals and officers obey her orders on the battlefield. Nothing else matters...it's right! The military has always been a relatively pure place. The strong win respect and glory, while the weak are despised and eliminated. It's that simple, everything else is empty.

And with Lansana's ability to perfectly control the grand strategy, and the respected status he has won among the Gray Army. A military-themed meeting like this one is naturally the protagonist. In fact, the previous situation was almost exactly the same. Lan Sha made a tactical decision and a group of officers and generals discussed it... Don't get me wrong, this is not a rebuttal. Even if it was for the sake of their own face and not being rendered speechless by the unceremonious Lansha later, a group of officers and generals would not take advantage of this bad luck after suffering many losses.

It's just...well, communication. Or maybe study with a lower profile, accept advice, etc...

But somehow, after the episode with Joshua just now, Lansha felt a little weird. He seemed to be thinking about something else, thoughtfully. Occasionally glance at the silent Josiah, frowning slightly...

After a while, I noticed that both Joshua and Lansha were a little out of sorts. Although Frey did not expect the reason, he decisively stood up and ended the short meeting.

In fact, there is indeed nothing to discuss. Now that the Gray Army has reported successes one after another, the army is like a rainbow in the hinterland of Bran, with an unstoppable power that sweeps thousands of miles like a tiger. Under such a good momentum, even if there are some problems, they become insignificant. If Frey, who knew Lansha's true identity, had not been selfish and hoped that his generals could learn more from Lansha, there would be no need for this military meeting...

After greeting all the high-level generals to disperse, Frey turned his head by the door and looked at Josiah who was still sitting at the table and Lansha who was packing his things and preparing to leave. He thought for a while and said: "Chief, take a rest. Bar……"

Before he could finish speaking, Joshua waved his hand and interrupted: "Brother Frey, I have some questions to ask Miss Lansha."

For a moment, Frey nodded lightly, turned around, closed the wooden door, and simply left.

Putting down the military information in his hands, Lansha seemed slightly startled when he heard this. He looked up at Josiah with just the right doubts in his eyes: "Question? About the army? Why, are you still wary of me? Haha, don't worry. Although you These soldiers and officers are indeed useful, but they are not enough to make me give up the millions of warriors in my tribe..."

"That's not it." Joshua frowned slightly, thinking about the sudden throbbing and ominous premonition that flashed through his heart just now. He pursed his lips and looked into Lansha's eyes, "You know where Tang En went? Go do something, right?"

"Huh?" Lan Sha suddenly looked stunned when he heard this. He raised his hand and pointed at himself inexplicably, "I...should know this? Ha..." suddenly shook his head and laughed, suddenly, "Why, I finally saw the true face of that bastard clearly. ? Suspect that he is hiding another woman outside? Ha, if that’s true, I wouldn’t be surprised at all... Well, do you have evidence? What clues have you discovered? "

At the end of the sentence, when he suddenly asked a question, Lan Sha narrowed his eyes slightly, and his expression showed some unnoticeable anger. Of course, the object of this irritation is not Josiah, but Tang En, who seems to be suspected by Josiah now - a good explanation of his identity as a mistress, but found out that the scumbag actually has another partner to cheat on him.

in this way. Look at each other for a moment. Joshua looked deeply at Lansha, looked away, stood up and walked out the door: "You are overthinking, I was just asking casually."

"Huh? What...are you kidding me? No! There was something wrong with you just now. Did you really find something? Tang En really had something outside...hehe, let's talk. If that's true, we are all victims now. , there should be a common topic..."

"Miss Lansha."

"kindness?"

"If that's the case, I'm the victim." Opening the wooden door, Josiah looked at Lansha who was chasing him with an expressionless face. He spoke indifferently. "As for you, you are just a latecomer with wishful thinking!"

Bang, the wooden door closed, covering the place with wind and rain.

"Ha. Just put on a face... He is really a difficult opponent." There was a pause. After making sure the footsteps outside the door have faded away. Lansha shrugged his shoulders. He pulled up a wooden chair and sat down, with a slight smile on his lips, "But you are smart. I am not stupid either."

That's right, Lansha's expression and dialogue just now were all fake. The so-called life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. Among them, women are born with strength, especially smart women. Therefore, it was undoubtedly a bit naive for Josiah to learn from her the true whereabouts of Tang En... However,

The smile at the corner of his mouth faded and went up to his eyebrows. Lan Sha was thoughtful, her thin eyebrows gradually frowning unconsciously.

I have to say that women’s intuition is really unreasonable. No matter it is separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, or shrouded in fog, a woman's intuition can always penetrate everything and hit her true heart like a sharp arrow with a precise navigation device!

Josiah was instantly shocked to realize that Tang En might be in extreme danger. Although Lansha had no such premonition, looking at Josiah's nervous expressions, this was the first thing he realized...

It shouldn't be. Considering that Bran is still struggling to his death, the sword god Wooding shouldn't have tried his best early. And with Grandpa Bamutu following him, Tang En should... definitely not have any trouble...

No matter how wise you are, if you lack first-hand information, relying solely on guesswork is of course futile. As long as you can't hold back your concern, you will be in chaos. Pushing open the window on the south side of the house, it was as if the wind and rain suddenly hit without realizing it. Lan Sha held on to the window lattice and looked up at the dark sky in the south with a dazed expression...

Surely nothing will happen...right?

…

…

The only ones who care about Tang En's life and death are Joshua and Lansha.

But it is true that no one can answer this question. Until Tang En appears intact or his mutilated body is found, even the two elderly people involved who were closest to Tang En at the time have no way of knowing...

At the mouth of the river, the center of the river and its surface have returned to the silence of the past. The smoke is swaying, the rain is pouring, and the river is still turbulent. No matter from which angle you look at it, nothing has changed here, as if nothing has happened.

But, of course that’s not the case——

The tens of thousands of hectares of river water that have been evaporated cannot come back!

In just a short period of time, countless riverside ports have turned into inland towns, and this will never change again!

The large ravine at the bottom of the river, buried deep under tens of thousands of tons of river water, with a deep depression that seems to divide the entire continent into two, will never change again...

…

These are only superficial changes that can be seen with the naked eye. Really terrifying changes are hidden in the air and waterways. They are invisible and insubstantial, but they contain fatal dangers!

After this battle, although the bizarre collapsed world was artificially closed, the space in this area has become extremely unstable. From time to time, there will be rumors of ships mysteriously disappearing without a trace in this water area, which is extremely evil!

Of course, these are things for the future. Let's not mention it for now, let us focus on the present...

"God!"

"I'm coming……"

"It's people - three people -"

A merchant ship was originally traveling from south to north, but suddenly received news halfway along the way and returned in a hurry. Dozens of crew members hid in the cabin, watching in horror as a group of three people fell rapidly from the sky in the violent storm. Finally, with a bang, it fell onto the deck, causing the ship's hull to continue to shake.

"Master, master!"

"I can't die, I can't die for the time being. Don't talk, listen to me, pfft..." A mouthful of blood mist spurted out, but the old man involved seemed to be unaware, tightly grabbing the shoulders of the young man who staggered up, and said hurriedly, "Control this ship later and take good care of your senior brother Haita. Then return to the southern port as quickly as possible and mobilize all the masters above the prefecture level as soon as possible to chase and kill along the way... Ahem... Nabamutu was seriously injured and is now dead. It's the end of a strong crossbow. As long as we can find out his whereabouts, we can kill him! Ahem... Huchi, do you understand?"

"I understand, master, I understand..."

"Okay... Also, use all the connections at your disposal to search for Xiao Tang in Bran... in the south. If you find him, your first choice is to capture him alive and bring him to see me. If you can't capture him alive, just kill him. He...puff...ahem..."

"Huh? He's not dead yet?" The young man's panicked expression suddenly froze when he heard this, and he cried out, "Impossible! I saw him explode to pieces with my own eyes!"

"No, at least he didn't die in my hands... That hole in space was made by himself. It should be his escape route that he had prepared long ago. If you think about it this way, he who was prepared for it would probably escape into the space and escape. After the aftermath of the duel between me and Bamutu... ahem... However, the space at that time was already extremely unstable, and he was seriously injured. It was still unclear whether he could successfully come out of the space turbulence. It’s hard to say, even if he comes out, it’s still the mainland of Xize, it’s hard to say... But... poof... we have to be prepared! If he returns to the real world, he will definitely be in a dying state. We must, we must find him... Huh... He is too Danger...too dangerous..."

His chest heaved violently, the old man gasped and took half a step back, murmuring repeatedly with the corner of his mouth, and suddenly fell straight on his back.

"Master—Master—"
