Chapter 583: Like the Hell Inspecting the Troops
"put--"
Whoosh whoosh!
The night was dark, the fire was blazing, and in the dense forest, suddenly, several plumes of smoke appeared in the sky.
Several signal fires rose into the sky, and the light fell down into the depths of the dense forest. It seemed as if several human figures were climbing in a winding manner.
"They are catching up!" Many people looked up and quickly hid behind tree trunks, looking behind them in panic.
"Why are you hiding?! Hurry up and go! What's the point of that light? Hurry up! Hurry up!"
The person who came later urged impatiently, his tone full of disdain for the scattered warriors behind him, and even more so, unbearable disgust for the group of useless bandits in front of him.
This is just a warning to the superiors, otherwise who would want to deal with these dead guys?
Many figures followed the mysterious man and fled quickly along the forest floor.
It’s already this late, and those bosses are nowhere to be found, so what can these minnows and generals do?
The smoke from the signal fell overhead, and the brief moment of light that suddenly illuminated was only fleeting.
My heart just settled down and I secretly thanked myself for being lucky.
Who knew——
Just after climbing up a hill, the pitch-black road ahead was suddenly illuminated!
Almost in an instant, all the people who were stumbling and running for their lives could see each other clearly!
"ah--"
"Oh my god!"
"Sir, spare my life!!!"
After a deadly silence, the thieves, already frightened by the people down the mountain, reacted and instantly became furious! They were terrified and fell to their knees and crawled around, wishing they could dive directly into the bushes to escape.
There was no fire or lamp, and the moon was obscured by clouds and mist. Where did the light come from, so bright and dazzling?!
Snap——
Pah pah——
Whoosh whoosh——
Countless divine fires gathered in the dense forest where the bandits fled, instantly illuminating the narrow path that was invisible at night into clear and bright light!
The swaying figures, illuminated by the divine fire, were like headless flies, confused and not knowing where to go.
The bright light emitted by countless high-powered flashlights converged in one place, and the darkness immediately dissipated. Under the bright light, almost at the same time, a loud shout came from the bottom of the mountain: "Fire!"
Countless arrows were shot into the dense forest.
Arrows rained down, wave after wave.
As the pursuers approached from the mountain, the fugitives in the forest ran around in panic.
The person who attacked secretly to rob people was also shocked by this strange scene and lost his composure.
I never thought that I would encounter such a bizarre thing when sneaking here in the dark.
The leader's expression changed drastically. "Who on earth is coming down here? Why is the message different from what we received from above?"
"Sir, let's throw these people away. Carrying so many of them is a burden."
The man walked on the mountain and looked back with a frown. He waved his sword to block an arrow, and glanced at the group of thieves and nodded. "Go and capture a few useful people, and pick up a few more heads and bring them back together. The situation is not good, retreat!"
"yes!"
The forest was in chaos, with countless casualties.
At the foot of the mountain, Xie Yuchuan and Han Qiguang worked side by side to clear out the stubborn bandits on horseback and fought their way to the foot of the mountain.
On the left and right sides are soldiers holding magical weapons to clear the way for their brothers.
There is nowhere to hide under the divine fire.
The sounds of fighting behind him gradually faded away, and the sounds of horse hooves and footsteps gradually moved towards the center.
Everyone was frightened by the sudden bright scene before their eyes.
Xie Yuchuan stared at the scene in front of him with deep eyes.
Beneath the seemingly calm surface, his mind couldn't help but be shaken by what he saw.
He had seen the light of the world of the household gods.
But he still underestimated it. When the same light illuminated the mountains and forests under the night sky, the shock he saw with his own eyes exceeded his expectations.
A beam of divine fire is already a miracle.
Under the countless divine fires, the enemy has nowhere to hide.
Excited, he couldn't help but spin the silver spear in his right hand.
With a thought, the silver spear spun and made a breathtaking sound!
Like a bell, it echoed all around, just like the devil's army.
"kill."
——
There was a loud bang.
A bright light flashed outside the window, and the yellow dog that was half asleep in the yard suddenly rolled over on the spot, shaking as it was awakened. When it came to its senses, it kept barking "woof woof".
In the dark night, after a short while, several windows lit up one after another, and figures stood up and swayed on the windows.
The tinder lights the oil lamp.
A house suddenly lit up.
"Sir, I'm going to go out and take a look. Please be careful."
"Okay, be careful. Don't stand under a tree for long during thunder and lightning, and stay away from copper and iron objects."
"Yes, sir."
Under the dim light, Li Shaoqing, who had just stayed overnight in Gaojia Village on the way, was so tired that he thought he could sleep until dawn. Unexpectedly, he was awakened by thunder and lightning not long after he fell asleep.
The thunder was so loud that his tired brain and any sleepiness were scared away by these huge thunders.
He picked up his outer robe and put it on, tying the rope as he walked out. Halfway through, he suddenly thought of something and turned back, took out the rare treasure from under his pillow, and took it out of the room.
Leaving the capital and heading north, the weather was so cold that it made one's teeth chatter.
Li Shaoqing had just stood there for a moment when he saw the coachman who was accompanying the carriage running back trembling.
"Sir, I see that many villagers in the village were awakened by the thunder."
Li Shaoqing looked up for a while, and saw several lightning bolts streaking across the night sky in the distance.
To avoid any accidents, he quickly called the servants into the house to keep warm.
"Sir, the thunder is so loud!" The groom sighed as he went to pour water for Li Shaoqing.
The water bag was filled with some warmth and placed in the corner of the warm kang during the day. Now it was neither too hot nor too cold, just the right temperature to drink.
Li Shaoqing sat down with his hands on the table, looking back out the window. There were still a few flashes of lightning outside from time to time, and the scenery outside the window was brightened by the light from time to time.
A bowl of water was placed in front of him.
"Sir, drink some water."
After a while, a pancake was placed on the table.
"And there are some pancakes. Sir, you went to bed right after entering the village and haven't eaten yet. These pancakes are still warm, so they're not too cold. You can have a couple of bites."
Li Shaoqing glanced at him, looked up and said, "You should eat something too."
"Hehe, I just need to drink some water." The servant laughed.
Li Shaoqing asked, "Why, are we out of food?"
"Ah, not really," the groom explained hastily. "Last night, after the master retired, I asked the villagers here. After we pass this village and continue on, I'm afraid it'll be harder to find a place to stay. Any savings are appreciated."
Li Shaoqing understood, looked down, and still asked the other party to take out another pancake so that the master and servant could fill their stomachs together.
The window was occasionally illuminated by lightning.
Li Shaoqing felt that the sudden thunder and lightning tonight was a bit abnormal.
There has been less rain in the latter half of this month, so why are the thunder and lightning so violent?
Today, from day to night, was extremely abnormal, which he could not understand.
In the interval between darkness and light, the servant suddenly stood up and said, "Sir, someone is coming!"
Hearing the sound, Li Shaoqing looked out the window and saw a figure coming outside their room.
"Excuse me, has the gentleman gone to bed?"
