The people on the city wall retreated in unison, and some even instinctively raised their hands to cover their mouths and noses.

The human-headed lizard turned into ashes in the extreme heat.

The water in the moat evaporated instantly due to the high temperature, and all the human-headed lizards that were submerged in the river and did not jump out of the water were not spared. They were all burned to ashes, leaving black shadows on the dried-up riverbed and embankment.

The officers and soldiers were once again shocked by the scene before their eyes. Most of them stood there like a fool, completely unable to move.

"Well, the Flame Palm," Yu Xiaoxiao explained to people.

"This," Wang Zhao muttered to himself on the tower, "is this a palm?" If this is a palm, then is the waving of their hands that they usually do actually clapping? !

In the silence, a piece of snow near the moat was suddenly lifted up from the bottom by something. In the stunned gaze of everyone, a man dressed in white jumped out from under the snow, desperately beating his body with his hands, like a madman.

Just when the officers and soldiers were wondering whether they should go up and catch this man, Yu Xiaoxiao rolled a snowball in her hand and smashed it on the man's head.

The man in white fell to the snow without a word.

Officers and soldiers..., is this okay?

Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang walked up to the man. Yu Xiaoxiao glanced at him and said to Gu Xinglang, "He's definitely fainted."

Gu Xinglang nodded, his eyes moving slightly.

Several poisonous insects crawled out of the man's ears. The white insects crawled in the snow and could not be seen by the unwary person.

Yu Xiaoxiao squatted in front of this person, touched his face, and said to Gu Xinglang: "The skin is on the face, not the skinless person."

Gu Xinglang said: "Xiaoxiao, take another look, is there anyone hiding here?"

Yu Xiaoxiao looked around.

The officers and soldiers didn't know what these two were doing, but they felt very powerful, and many of them didn't dare to breathe heavily.

"No more," Yu Xiaoxiao looked around again and again and said to Gu Xinglang, "This guy is the only one left."

The chief guard ran up to the silent tower and looked outside the city. He saw Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang at a glance. The chief guard's hand on the battlement slipped, and the master of Qinggong almost fell off the tower. How did these two get here? !

The captain of the guards turned around and ran down the city wall without saying a word.

Wang Zhao watched the chief guard running toward the city like he was being chased by a dog, and asked loudly, "Who are those two?"

The chief guard said without even turning his head: "General, please open the city gate!"

General Wang..., are those two below our distinguished guests?

The chief guard ran straight to Jing Mo's horse and whispered, "Your Majesty, the princess and her husband are here."

Jing Mo frowned. It was not surprising that Yu Xiaoxiao came, but why was Gu Xinglang here too?

Su Zhao, who was riding a horse alongside Jing Mo, asked, "Just the two of them?"

The chief guard said, "The prince consort is holding something in his hand, but I don't know what it is."

Su Zhao said: "Things?"

The chief guard thought about it and said, "Maybe it's a person?"

After hearing what the chief guard said, Jing Mo turned around and said to Su Zhao, "Could they have already captured Mo Wen?"

The eyes of the captain of the guards and the guards around Jing Mo and Su Zhao immediately lit up. This is possible!

Su Zhao's mouth twitched, and he said, "If Mo Wen was caught, why would there still be monsters here?"

The city gate opened at this time, and the drawbridge was slowly lowered with the friction sound of the iron lock.

"Gee," Jing Mo urged his horse and ran out of the city.

The captain of the guards jumped on his horse and followed Jing Mo.

Yu Xiaoxiao was still studying the person she had knocked unconscious with a snowball, and said to Gu Xinglang, "This person looks like a normal human being."

Gu Xinglang said: "How can someone who can hide in the snow be a normal person?"

"That's right," Yu Xiaoxiao stroked the white-clothed man's head and said, "Hair grows out too. He's not a monk. Is this Mo Wen's friend?"

Gu Xinglang took a few steps forward and saw a black piece of wood lying in the snow.

Yu Xiaoxiao took a look at the piece of wood and said, "It's a wooden whistle."

Picking up the piece of wood, Yu Xiaoxiao discovered that it was a bamboo whistle. Yu Xiaoxiao took the bamboo whistle and was about to put it to her mouth.

"Don't," Gu Xinglang shouted hurriedly. Who knows if this thing is poisonous?

Jing Mo and Su Zhao ran across the suspension bridge and came to the young couple.

"Jing Mo, A Zhao," Yu Xiaoxiao greeted the two.

Jing Mo and Su Zhao got off the horse, looked at the man in white on the ground, looked at Yu Xiaoxiao, and then looked at Gu Xinglang.

The captain of the guards did not lead the guards forward, but waved his hand to signal the soldiers behind Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang to retreat.

Jing Mo asked Gu Xinglang in a low voice: "Are you okay?"

Gu Xinglang said: "I'm fine."

Yu Xiaoxiao ran forward, pulled Su Zhao to Gu Xinglang, and said happily: "A Zhao, Xiao Gu and I brought Father Su back."

Su Zhao was stunned.

After hearing what Yu Xiaoxiao said, Jing Mo hurriedly looked at Gu Xinglang's hand. Was Su Ying wrapped in it?

Gu Xinglang said: "Should we find a warmer place to talk?"

Yu Xiao: "Yeah, it's okay for us, but Father Su can't stand the cold."

Jing Mo hurriedly said, "Let's go back to the city."

The group returned to the city.

The captain of the guards led his men to tie up the man in white and carried him back to the city.

As for the dried moat, Jing Mo didn't have time to take care of it at the moment.

Jing Mo took Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang into a warm room. The room was warm as spring with a floor heater, and the copper crane incense burner was still burning incense. Yu Xiaoxiao sneezed loudly when she smelled the fragrant air.

Jing Mo walked quietly to the incense burner and blocked the crane's mouth that was spewing incense.

Gu Xinglang put General Su on the bed, carefully unwrapped the quilt for General Su, and removed the fur coat that covered his head and feet.

Su Zhao stood in front of the bed, watching Gu Xinglang busying around with some helplessness, not realizing that he was the one who should be doing these things.

Yu Xiaoxiao took out the medical kit and prepared to give General Su an IV.

Jing Mo knew that now was not the time to ask questions, so he helped Yu Xiaoxiao get the medicine out of the medicine bag.

"Do you have any ginseng?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked Jing Mo: "If you have, give Father Su a bowl of ginseng soup."

Jing Mo hurriedly walked out of the door again and ordered someone to stew a bowl of ginseng soup.

Su Zhao saw General Su's face and his breath suddenly stopped. Su Zhao had not been able to recall what his father looked like for a long time, but now that he saw him, those long-forgotten memories suddenly came back to life. This was his father, no doubt, but how could his father become like this?

Gu Xinglang untied the last quilt for General Su, but still covered General Su with it, and then pulled open the quilt on the bed and covered General Su with it. Turning his head to look at Su Zhao, Gu Xinglang whispered, "General, he will be fine. My father was in a worse condition than him. Rest well, and he will get better slowly."
