Chapter 2644: Drinking Poison to Quench Thirst
Li Bushang stood up and was about to leave, but he couldn't help but look back at the doorway not far away, which seemed to be flashing with a dim candlelight in the dark night.
Obviously, there is nothing.
Obviously, I can't see anything.
But he seemed to see that familiar figure.
Only when everyone was asleep and everything was quiet could he sneak up, avoid the sight of all the guards, and catch a glimpse of that figure by chance.
Knowing that it was fatal, knowing that looking at it any longer would only make the poison in your heart deeper.
But he still couldn't control himself.
I want to get closer, even just a little.
Even if he just felt the wind blowing through the corner of her clothes, it was like a person walking in the desert seeing an oasis.
It's like drinking poison to quench thirst.
But, that was his life.
At this moment, a cold and hard voice sounded beside my ears——
"Li is not hurt."
“……!”
Li Bushang's mind was shocked, and he immediately came to his senses, then met the emperor's deep and bottomless eyes. It was as if something had smashed him hard from mid-air into the ground, and his heartbeat sank.
Lower your head immediately.
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Zhu Feng looked at him without saying a word. Although it was only a brief silence, it seemed as if there were thousands of invisible sharp edges surrounding Li Bushang in that silence.
He even held his breath.
At this time, Zhu Feng said: "There is one more thing I want to tell you."
“…”
"White Dragon City has also sent a group of people who will meet you halfway and jointly take responsibility for the safety of this group of people."
“…”
"I hope you can be faster on the road, meet them earlier, and come up with a countermeasure. No matter what happens on the road, you can deal with it calmly."
“…”
"I leave all of this to you."
"yes."
"I still say the same thing,"
Zhu Feng took a step forward. Although Li Bushang just lowered his head, he could feel an invisible pressure coming with it, like a mountain pressing down on his head, making it hard to breathe.
Zhu Feng said, "If you succeed in this task, I will congratulate you; if you fail, you will come back and take the blame."
Li Bushang said in a deep voice, "Your humble servant understands."
"I'm used to it. Let's go."
"yes."
After Li Bushang finished speaking, he took a deep breath, didn't dare to look up again, turned around and left.
Zhu Feng stood there, watching his back disappear into the dark night, and still did not leave. When he looked up again, there was only a faint, almost invisible morning light in the sky.
It is a long journey for light to break through darkness.
And to seize victory from all odds is an even more difficult journey.
After Li Bushang stepped out of Handongwei, he led his troops and galloped westward. Although they traveled day and night, it still took them five full days. After the sun set that day, it quickly became dark.
However, it was not all silent.
The wind whistled past in gusts, and the sensitive people could faintly hear some other noises in the wind.
It seemed like something was whispering in the wind.
Li Bushang waved his hand to call over Tian Ye, a guard from the northwest of the Jinyiwei, and asked, "What's that sound?"
Tian Ye listened for a while with a frown.
He said, "Sir, I'm afraid a pack of wolves are following us."
"What!?"
