Jane Ning felt the same way. She knew that the truly arduous and difficult battle would be this afternoon. Although Yang Dali and the others could break away from their original bodies and transform into human forms, they were not human after all and were still different from ordinary people. They did not dare to stay in the human world during the day.
"Sister-in-law." Qin Yifan brought the guqin and said, "Sing a song of peace of mind for the soldiers."
Everyone knew that there was to be another fierce battle, and many people could not fall asleep even though they were exhausted, lying on the wool pile.
Qin Yifan played the guqin very well. During the time he was in Xing'an County, Jian Ning heard him play a piece of music and liked it very much. She nodded and walked over to stand beside him.
He played the piano and she sang. The music flowed from his fingertips, like a spring dripping into his heart. In tune with the piano music, Jian Ning sang, her voice clear and graceful, like the breeze and the bright moon, refreshing the heart.
The wind blows through the mountains and forests
Moonlight shines on the flowers
The world is like a dream, gathering and parting
Passionate and sad
…
When she sang "I play a song to send you from afar, but it's hard to express my longing for you. Although we are thousands of miles apart, our souls and dreams are always together, but our beauty's promise is in vain", Wu Yunzhu, who was meditating with her eyes closed among the grass, slowly opened her eyes.
The singing brought Wu Yunzhu back to the streets of the ancient city with fallen petals. She seemed to see Gu Shuyu in air force uniform walking towards her in the old days.
His eyes were smiling and his spirits were high.
Across the river of time, she could still feel his vigorous vitality coming towards her.
At that time, they were so young, and their hearts were full of beautiful visions of their future life!
That day he promised her affectionately that he would marry her after he returned from the mission, but who knew that what she waited for was the sad news that he had died a heroic death for his country!
At this moment, listening to the singing coming from the valley, Wu Yunzhu felt a little confused.
She used to hate the invaders so much, but now she has become the person she once hated! But can she be blamed for this?
As Gu Shuyu's widow, she followed in his footsteps and joined the Communist Party that same year, then went abroad for training. But when she returned to China, everything had changed dramatically. No one except herself knew how desperate she was when she was reported by her own son!
If only she died, all the suffering would be over.
But after being a wandering ghost for several months, she was inexplicably resurrected in the Qin Dynasty with the memories of her past life. At first, she thought it was a gift from fate. She thought she could meet Gu Shuyu in the Qin Dynasty and renew their past life's appointment.
But fate played a joke on her. When she traveled to the Qin Dynasty, the number in Baicaojian showed 460. She thought she would meet Gu Shuyu on the forty-sixth day. After that, she thought it was forty-six months, and later she thought it was forty-six years. However, she survived from the Qin Dynasty to the Western Han Dynasty, and she still didn't meet Gu Shuyu for a full four hundred and sixty years.
Later, whenever a number prompt appeared in Baicaojian, she would travel through time. Some were historical dynasties, and some were not. Every time she thought she would travel back to the Republic of China, but the closest time to the Republic of China in more than 1,300 years was when she adopted Jian Ning in modern times.
When she returned to the present day and saw her aging son, she had already lost all her temper due to the countless times she had traveled through time.
Was it easy for her? It took her 1,300 years to meet Pei Xiyuan, who looked exactly like Gu Shuyu. She just wanted to help him fulfill his wish. As her former apprentices, the people she cared for selflessly and received great favors from her, why did they all go against her?
Wu Yunzhu became increasingly anxious, and for a moment she really wanted to capture Jian Ning and give him a good beating!
As the only female disciple she had ever accepted, she had loved and pitied her so much, but Jian Ning did not understand her at all and even teamed up with Nan Yangzi to oppose her.
Traitor! Shameless traitor!
She already had a family and parents here, and had forgotten about her, her master. The more Wu Yunzhu thought about it, the more she felt that Jian Ning had no conscience, and she became more and more determined to destroy everything Jian Ning had!
At 1 p.m., the coalition forces of the three kingdoms launched another attack on Yaowang Valley. This time, the black-armored soldiers were full of hostility and murderous intent, but there was no movement in Yaowang Valley. When the black-armored soldiers rushed to the halfway point of the mountain, they stepped on empty air and fell into the pit one after another.
At the same time, hundreds of rockets whizzed down from above the valley entrance, and the black-armored soldiers behind them fell into the pit one after another. The pit was full of firewood soaked in kerosene, and a raging fire was burning in the pit. Ma Xiaomai saw it from above and jumped for joy.
"Uncle, they've fallen into a trap! They've fallen into a trap!"
"Get down!" Jane Ning knocked him to the ground with a sweeping kick. "I've told you so many times, you have to take a bullet before you're satisfied, right?"
"Brother Xiaomai, my mother gave you a bad fall." Erniu chuckled beside him. Ma Xiaomai didn't care at all, crouching down on the spot and glancing down the mountainside. Then he turned and smiled at Erniu, "Master said that a general must be patient. I always can't. Master, just give me a few more falls and I'll definitely remember it."
Ding Youtian fell on a pile of wool. He pinched the bridge of his nose and closed his eyes. "Alright, they'll need a while to fill the hole. I'm going to take a nap first. You guys keep an eye on it. Call me when they're done."
No one can compare to Ding Youtian in terms of cunning. The ammunition in the armory will not be replenished until tonight. Without Yang Dali and others to seal the toxicity of the black-armored soldiers, fighting against them will only be a waste of soldiers' lives. In preparation for the fierce battle in the afternoon, he came up with a trick. He asked Guoguo and Qiu Ge to find countless rats, spent the whole morning digging several pits on the mountainside, and asked people to make hundreds of sharp arrows.
He is still in the first pit, and there is a second one. There is no rush. He hasn't slept properly for an hour yet, so he will take a nap first.
Jian Ning lay beside him, gently massaging his shoulders. Halfway up the mountain, the coalition forces of the Three Kingdoms came up and were quickly digging and filling the pit. Qin Yifan, wearing a straw hoop on his head, led Tong Bajin and a few others to hide at the entrance of the valley, closely watching the coalition forces' every move.
