Liu Lao Er sneered, "You think setting up a killing formation can stop me? Fu Yunchen, you underestimate me too much."
Old Sun looked at him and asked, "Do you have any other way to climb the mountain?"
"I know a secret path up the mountain," Liu Lao Er said, directing the fleet to continue forward.
...
Fu Yunchen appeared at Chongyang Inn dressed in a long, fitted black robe with intricate embroidery.
At this moment, the open space in front of the inn was covered with the mummified corpses of Jin Dynasty soldiers. The only one standing was a strange man with ashen skin, an exceptionally tall stature, and dark, blue eyes without whites. He wore tattered armor, one of his feet was missing, and he was also missing one of his hands.
Fu Yunchen looked at his face, which was covered with crisscrossing wounds, making it impossible to recognize his original appearance.
"General Feixue, it's been a long time. You've worked hard again today." Fu Yunchen clasped his hands in a salute to him.
Four hundred years ago, during a time of chaos, there was a great general under Wei Wen, the founding emperor of the Northern Jin Dynasty. Known as General Flying Snow, he was handsome, brave, and highly respected in the army, and made great contributions to Wei Wen.
Feixue was born in the south and was extremely skilled in jungle and mountain warfare. But on one occasion, Wei Wen sent him to the north to attack the isolated city of Bingxue.
Even though he was not skilled in fighting in the north, General Feixue still went, and after three days and three nights of bloody fighting, he finally captured the isolated city.
The city was running low on food supplies, so General Feixue dispatched cavalry on an urgent mission to Wei Wen to request reinforcements.
Just then, the enemy launched a counterattack, and General Feixue had no choice but to lead his starving army to fight back.
Despite being isolated and helpless, General Feixue held fast to the snow-covered city for a month.
In the end, they never received reinforcements led by Wei Wen.
It wasn't until news of General Feixue's death spread that Wei Wen's reinforcements and supplies arrived. By then, General Feixue's body had already been hung on the city gate by the enemy, his face disfigured, his legs and arms crippled...
Upon seeing Wei Wen's hundreds of thousands of troops, the enemy immediately abandoned the city and fled. Wei Wen captured the isolated city of Bingxue without lifting a finger, and buried General Feixue's body on the spot, without even being able to return his homeland.
"I will never enter the underworld until the Northern Jin Dynasty is destroyed! Remember your promise, or I will eat you alive!" With that, General Feixue flew into the coffin!
Qiao Dongzi walked over, first bowing respectfully to the coffin, and then said to Fu Yunchen, "Boss, we caught a few shady characters. Lu Bingchao is among them."
"Lu Bingchao was a person from the Northern Jin Dynasty."
"Yes, boss."
"The Northern Jin Dynasty should have already taken action."
"What does the boss mean?"
"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. The Northern Jin will not let this opportunity pass. Even if they cannot destroy the Central Jin Dynasty in one fell swoop, they can greatly weaken it. This year, the Northern Jin has had a bumper harvest and its food supplies are plentiful. If they do not launch an attack now, it would be unless Wei Yingzhuo is a fool."
"A person who can feign madness for decades and ascend the throne is clearly not stupid, but rather very shrewd."
"Liu Lao Er must have gone to the secret passage. You know that place, right?"
"Yes. Once, he was having a tryst with a widow from the village, and I followed him to watch the fun. That's when I discovered the secret passage. Come to think of it, it seems that the second son has always been fond of widows. Apart from his wife, all his concubines are widows."
"You seem quite envious of him."
"No, no, no, if my husband knew I had ulterior motives, he would kill me."
"Then get out of here right now."
"Yes." Qiao Dongzi left in a hurry.
Fu Yunchen carried the coffin and was about to return to the mountains when he suddenly stopped.
Another multi-story ship appeared on the river.
It wasn't a warship, but a very luxurious cruise ship.
Fu Yunchen frowned and put the coffin down.
Long Qian gracefully stepped off the ship, followed by ten servants carrying various gift boxes.
"The phoenix sings sweetly, the peach blossoms are in full bloom. I wish my brother and sister-in-law a perfect match, harmony between heaven and earth, and many children and offspring."
Long Qian stepped over the mummified corpses as if walking on flat ground, and walked up to Fu Yunchen. Finally, his gaze fell on the coffin beside Fu Yunchen.
"My brother used his own witch blood to make a deal with the zombies."
"If you're here for a wedding, please come on the mountain. If you have no other purpose, then goodbye." Fu Yunchen said, frowning.
Long Qian said, "Of course I'm here to attend the wedding. Do you still want these mummies, brother? If not, you can give them to me."
Fu Yunchen shouldered the coffin and continued walking into the mountains, neither agreeing nor refusing.
Long Qian opened his mouth and spat out more than a dozen golden insects.
The insects became very active upon seeing the mummified corpse. One of them landed on it, and the corpse quickly turned into a pile of gray powder...
Moments later, hundreds of mummified corpses turned into a pile of ashes.
Zi Wu, carrying a huge box, disembarked from the warship. Seeing the ashes scattered on the ground, he quickened his pace and asked, "Your Majesty, what are you doing collecting that corpse energy?"
Long Qian said, "Let's raise a drought demon for Huanhuan to play with."
Ziwu: "Oh."
"Did you get everything?"
"I took them all."
"Then let's go find Huanhuan."
...
Mu Run held her lower back, her legs felt like noodles, she couldn't sit or stand, and could only lie on the bed.
Looking at Huanhuan and Tuantuan, he patted the inside of the bed, "Come here, lie down on the inside. How about we get some rest early tonight?"
"Mom, are you feeling unwell?" Huanhuan was very worried when she saw that Murun was not moving and looked tired.
Mu Run hugged her and pulled her close, kissing her gently. "Mother is alright."
Tuantuan looked around the room, which was decorated with bright red festive ornaments everywhere, and curiously touched and looked at everything.
Mu Run reached out to him, "Come here, shall I tell you a story?"
Tuantuan loved listening to stories, so she immediately ran over to Murun and said, "Okay, Your Highness, tell me a story."
She placed the two children inside, then lay on her side on the edge of the bed, facing them.
Looking at their faces, which resemble Fu Yunchen's, especially Tuantuan, even their frowns are exactly the same.
"Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Sima Guang who was playing with his friends in the garden. One of the children climbed onto a water vat..."
Outside the door, Fu Yunchen was carrying a food box, listening to Mu Run telling stories to the children inside.
Only after the story ended and Mu Run quietly got out of bed did he gently knock on the door and whisper, "It's me."
"Come in," Mu Run's gentle voice came from inside the room.
Fu Yunchen pushed open the door and entered. Seeing Mu Run's somewhat unnatural gait, he quickly placed the food box on the table and then helped her up, saying, "I was too hasty. I'll be more careful next time."
Mu Run glared at him fiercely, "There won't be a next time!"
Fu Yunchen smiled deeply, "I still want Xiao Huanhuan and Xiao Tuantuan, how can I not have them?"
"I want to give birth myself," Mu Run said coquettishly.
“I can’t give birth, but you can give birth on your own.” Fu Yunchen opened the food box, which contained ginseng tonic soup and some lightly flavored dishes.
Mu Run rested her elbows on the table, propped her chin on her hands, and looked at him. "Are you curious about why I got pregnant?"
---Aside---
I fell asleep at my desk and dreamt that I had stopped updating, which immediately woke me up... I'll post this chapter for now, and there will be more tomorrow morning~
