When a person breaks down and cries, it means that he has accepted and digested the thing. Crying is just an emotional release and a compromise that he has to passively accept.

Ma Xiaomai thought about it all night yesterday. Now he has a fiancée and is no longer the ignorant boy who knew nothing. When he thought about the early morning of the day when his father had the accident, he realized that his father treated his mother and his uncle's family completely differently from before.

His mother always said that his father had changed his personality after a near-death experience. But when they thought about it carefully, not only had his personality changed, his martial arts skills had also improved a lot, and he was always saying new words that they couldn't understand.

But his father's appearance had not changed. He was still the familiar face to them, so he never thought too much about it and was happy to see his parents loving and harmonious. But when he suddenly realized that his father was not the same father and would leave them one day, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

I feel more sorry for his mother and his younger brothers who have not grown up!

But at the same time, the responsibility of being the eldest son also arose naturally.

Hearing his crying gradually fade away, Ma Fuquan knew that the matter was almost over, so he patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, let's go down the mountain. You should have a good sleep and get enough rest. We will probably have a fierce battle to break the formation the day after tomorrow. Keep this."

With a thought, the XL on the shelf landed in Ma Fuquan's hands. "Think of it as a gift from your father. When you run out of bullets, you can ask your master for more."

"My master will really never come back?" Ma Xiaomai asked with red eyes.

"No. She's already sacrificed her life over there. If I suddenly go back one day and something happens to you, your master will help you, but you'd better stand up for yourself and be a man of integrity. In the end, you have to rely on yourself, don't you understand?"

Ma Xiaomai nodded heavily, "Now that Dad is gone, I'm the pillar of the family. I'll help Mom take care of my younger brother. Don't worry, Dad!"

Ma Fuquan patted his arm and said, "Not bad, you've really grown up. Dad believes in you!"

Two days later, the 100,000 troops stationed at Jiguan Mountain were pulled up to the four city walls, and the yamen runners and hangers-on from the Xing'an and Zhuling County yamen secretly ascended Jiguan Mountain. Jian Ning and Ma Fuquan had used their minds to move the eight 155mm vehicle-mounted howitzers, each with a maximum range of 70 kilometers, from the cave to their pre-selected target locations.

Qin Yifan was in charge of the command, and Tong Bajin and Erlangzi cooperated with them to lead a group of yamen runners and city defense soldiers to ambush on the mountain.

Qin Yifan and Ding Youtian were already well versed in the principles of weapon use. Although the city defense soldiers and yamen runners had never fired live ammunition, they had already learned how to use them after several months of drills.

Today we are finally going to witness the power of these big iron bulls. The people who are lying in ambush on the mountain are excited and ready to go.

Outside the city, flags were flying in front of the two armies. Under the huge banner with the character "Duan" on it, King Pingnan, fully armed, and Ding Youtian, wearing a black cloak, sat upright on their horses, both of them with solemn expressions.

The 200,000-strong army was on high alert.

In front of the three armies, seven people led by Ma Fuquan sat upright on their horses and lined up in a row. They all wore red battle robes and gas masks, with murderous eyes, staring at the Five Poison Formation set up by the other side, waiting for the third drum sound to rush into the enemy camp.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

At the exact time of Si, both sides beat the war drums simultaneously. When the first drum sounded, the seven war horses that were trying to break the formation moved at the same time. Jian Ning rode on Jifeng and took the lead, holding high the long sword in his hand and rushed towards the fire gate needles in the Five Poison Formation that had begun to move.

"Beat the drums harder!"

At the command of King Pingnan, dense cheering drums resounded throughout the earth.

As soon as Jian Ning entered the Fire Gate Formation, she rushed straight to the Gate of Life. She rolled flexibly on Jifeng's back, hanging sideways on the left and right sides of the horse's belly from time to time. The sharp sword in her hand stabbed along the ground towards the bottom of the shield. She was in the midst of killing when suddenly she saw smoke rising in the sky, the sounds in her ears stopped, and the people and horses around her disappeared. It seemed that the world suddenly stopped.

What the hell? She was horrified. This was not the way to play.

"Wu Ya." A familiar and kind voice sounded in memory.

Grandma? This was the voice of her master, Grandma Wu. Jane Ning was shocked and turned to look. She couldn't help but exclaim inwardly, was she traveling back to the modern era again?

Where's the wind? Isn't she riding on the wind to break through the formation?

It's totally off the mark!

Looking at the old-style buildings hidden under the green trees and the elderly ladies sitting under the trees picking vegetables and chatting, Jane Ning was a little confused. Before she could think about it, she saw Grandma Wu coming from a building behind.

"Wu Ya, school is over." Grandma Wu looked at her kindly, raised her arm and waved at her, smiling and said, "Come quickly, go home and do your homework first, and then make some cold noodles in the evening. Come quickly."

When Jane Ning first saw Grandma Wu who raised her, she called out "Grandma" and was about to run over when alarm bells went off in her head. The words "Death, shock, and injury, stay away" that she had been silently repeating in her mind for the past few days exploded in her mind. She stopped and stared at Grandma Wu.

No, her master rarely smiled. She looked around again and carefully determined the location. Her master was standing at the "death" door.

Looking deeply at Grandma Wu, Jian Ning shook her head and said, "Grandma, I can't come over. This is an illusion, an illusion that is leading me into the gate of death. Take care, I'm leaving!"

Jane Ning turned around resolutely. The moment she turned, the sound of war drums and horses neighing suddenly rose in her ears. She was still riding on Jifeng's back. Several spears were stabbing towards her heart. She swung her sword to deflect the spears and rushed left and right. When she was about to reach the exit, she pulled the reins in her hand. Jifeng let out a long neigh, raised his two front hooves high, and jumped to the exit with Jane Ning on his back.

Entering the Life Gate, Jian Ning held a sword in his left hand and a Mini XL in his right hand. After a fierce battle, people and horses were thrown to the ground, and the Fire Gate Formation was in chaos. Seeing this, Ding Youtian, who was in front of the position, waved the flag in his hand, and 30,000 elite soldiers rushed towards the Fire Gate Formation.

The shouts of killing shook the sky!

At this time, Ma Fuquan, who had charged into the Tumen Formation, could not hear any sound. There was only pink mist floating around him. He sat on his horse with bated breath, alert with full concentration. The mist in front of him trembled slightly like ripples on the water.

"Yanxu, when did you come back?"

A voice sounded from the left rear. Ma Fuquan turned his head and saw the courtyard of his father-in-law's house. His father-in-law was holding a kitchen knife in one hand and an old hen in the other, and was looking at him sideways.

What happened? Ma Fuquan looked down and saw that the horse under him was gone. He was wondering if he had put it back on. Then he heard Wu Juan's voice in the room, "Dad, is Ah Xu back?"

When he first heard Wu Juan's voice, Ma Fuquan was a little excited. He looked up and saw Wu Juan coming out of the room wearing a white shirt with lavender polka dots. Her hair was tied behind her head with a plain handkerchief. She looked familiar to him in his memory.

"A Xu?" Wu Juan was stunned when she saw him, then waved at him, "Come in, help Dad kill the chicken. Come in quickly."
