The Return of the Demon

Chapter 982 I Will Not Show Mercy to Him for Your Sake

Ning Chen twitched the corners of his lips and sneered: "You are quite a person, so I will keep you for now.

Tantai Qingyue is right, I am keeping you here not out of mercy, but because I need coolies, a lot of coolies.

The reconstruction of Xiguan City depends on you... This is also the value of your life! "

Ning Chen waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Long, take him down!"

"yes!"

"It's getting late, everyone should go to bed early and go to Xiguan City early tomorrow morning."

...

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, King Wu led an army of 10,000 people and returned to Bianzhou with the wounded.

This time, in addition to the Ning'an Army, Ning Chen brought a total of 50,000 troops.

In yesterday's battle, because the Ning'an Army failed to arrive in time for support, the Daxuan soldiers also suffered heavy casualties, with over 10,000 casualties.

Now, King Wu has taken away 10,000 people, plus the wounded... and the Ning'an army who followed Ning Chen to Xiguan City, there are only more than 40,000 people.

But it's enough. With the Ning'an army here, the Xiliang prisoners dare not make any mistakes.

Ning Chen led the army and escorted more than 60,000 Xiliang prisoners to Xiguan City.

It takes more than ten days to march from here to Xiguan City.

But now it is covered with heavy snow and it is difficult to march. It may take about half a month to reach Xiguancheng.

More than ten days passed in a flash, and we were not far from Xiguan City.

On this day, when the army was resting, Xiao Yanxi came to give Ning Chen food.

While Ning Chen was eating, he asked casually: "Xiao Xixi, is there any news about that super master who dresses like someone who died in his family?"

Xiao Yanxi shook her head, "There is no news yet... Don't worry, I will tell you as soon as there is news!"

Ning Chen said: "There are only a few super masters in this world, shouldn't it be so difficult to check?"

Xiao Yanxi said: "The super master Shenlong has seen its head but not its tail. Although there are not many people, we have too few clues... It is not easy to find out."

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "This time, if this beast hadn't sent a message to Xiliang, our Daxuan soldiers would never have suffered heavy casualties, with over 10,000 casualties.

I will remember this blood debt for him, no matter who he is? I will dig him out, cut him into pieces with a thousand knives, crush his bones and spread ashes. "

Xiao Yanxi nodded, spies deserved more death than enemies.

Ning Chen took a bite of the whole grain pancake and asked casually: "Xiao Xixi, is there any news about your teacher?"

Xiao Yanxi was a little surprised and tilted her head to look at Ning Chen, "Don't you dislike my teacher? Why did you suddenly mention him?"

"Isn't this just out of curiosity? I just asked casually...your teacher has traveled all over the world, so he should have corresponded with you, right?"

Xiao Yanxi said hurriedly: "It's just a normal correspondence, don't think too much.

When we were in Yangzhou, I received a letter from the teacher. He said that someone else was in Cangzhou... I never received a letter from the teacher again after that. "

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "Your teacher is in Cangzhou? Are you sure?"

Xiao Yanxi looked at him with a strange look on her face, "What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly so concerned about my teacher's affairs?"

Ning Chen thought for a moment and then said it, "Xiao Xixi, that man in white has the ability to create paintings with a stroke of his brush, and his painting skills are amazing.

He was able to draw the landforms of Huxiao Gorge and Fuhu Valley with just a few strokes, which are similar to the wind watchpoint you drew, as if they were rubbings. "

The smile on Xiao Yanxi's face disappeared instantly, and her whole body froze.

After a while, he looked at Ning Chen and asked cautiously: "You, do you suspect that the man in white is my teacher?"

Ning Chen didn't hide anything and nodded slightly, "That's right! His miraculous painting skills, as well as the white mountain jade, etc., all indicate that your teacher is highly suspicious."

Xiao Yanxi shook her head, "It's impossible...why would my teacher do this? Moreover, Ning Lang said that the man in white is a super master, but my teacher is barely among the first-class masters."

Ning Chen said word by word: "Skills can be hidden.

As for why? I guess it's because of you. "

Xiao Yanxi's face was full of surprise, "For me? What do you mean?"

Ning Chen said: "You only have a relationship between master and disciple towards your teacher, but he may not only have a relationship between master and disciple towards you, but also a relationship between a man and a woman.

Bian Yangze told me that the man in white told him that he killed me because I touched something I shouldn't have touched.

After thinking about it, I think the person you shouldn't touch should be you... The man in white has never appeared before. He has appeared since you recovered your daughter's body, which shows that he is anxious. "

Xiao Yanxi's face was full of disbelief, thinking that this was simply a fantasy.

"That's just speculation on your part."

Ning Chen nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed just my guess... make bold assumptions and be careful to verify.

Whether you should say it or not, there are various signs that your teacher has serious suspicions. "

Xiao Yanxi remained silent. She had nothing to say. After listening to Ning Chen's analysis, she felt that her teacher was indeed very suspicious.

"Ning Lang, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to find out about this matter!"

Ning Chen held her hand and said, "Xiao Xixi, the reason I didn't hide it from you is because I didn't want you to hate me in the future.

If the man in white is not your best teacher, if he is really your teacher, I will not show mercy to him because of your face... No matter who it is, I will cut him into pieces to avenge the dead soldiers of my Daxuan . "

Xiao Yanxi's face turned pale and she nodded silently.

If the man in white was really her master, she would not forgive him.

For selfish reasons, he tipped off the enemy and killed so many Daxuan soldiers. How can he be forgiven?

.......

A few days later, Ning Chen finally led his army to Xiguan City.

The city walls collapsed, the towers were broken, and the city gate that used to be bustling was now empty, not to mention the garrison.

Ning Chen asked someone to find Lei An.

"Your Majesty!"

Lei An saluted.

Ning Chen waved at him, motioning him to come closer.

Lei An approached, and Ning Chen whispered a few words in his ear.

Lei An subconsciously glanced at Xiao Yanxi, then nodded and said, "I will obey your orders, Your Majesty, rest assured!"

Ning Chen ordered, "Enter the city!"

The army slowly entered the city.

When they saw the situation in the city, not to mention Ning Chen, the eyes of the Daxuan soldiers were red.

It was too miserable!

There were ruins and frozen bodies everywhere.

In the corner, an old couple, covered with ice and snow, hugged each other and died. I don't know how long they have been dead?

Under the broken wall on the side of the road, a woman was holding a child, covered with ice and snow, like a cruel work of art.

People who had frozen to death were everywhere.

The snow fell, and no one cleaned it up. The whole Xiguan City was like a world made of ice and snow, without any vitality.

Yuan Long's eyes were red, and this veteran man sobbed and said, "Prince, we are late."

Ning Chen had a gloomy face and did not speak.

He had been to Xiguan City before, and Yue Congyun was someone he met in Xiguan City. This place used to be very prosperous, with about 100,000 people in the city.

But now it has become a dead city.

Ning Chen said in a deep voice: "Yuan Long, let the army settle down first, and then search the whole city for survivors."

"I obey your order!"
