A rain of arrows came towards them. Some of the Qianzhou Divine Archers of that year were recruited by Duanmu Anguo. Even though the emergence of the Dashun Divine Machine Camp made the Qianzhou Divine Archers dim from their brilliance, it was always better to have them than not, and at some point they could still play a role in achieving a surprise victory.
Just like now!
Arrows rained down on one side, and one side could not move. Both choices would lead to death. However, Xuan Tianhua thought that he could still make a choice! If he did not move, he could at least buy some time for the girl behind him to escape. He knew that the girl had some special skills, and if he gave her time, even for a breath, she could save her life.
He smiled calmly, facing the rain of arrows, without any intention of dodging. Feng Yuheng watched from behind, her eyes blazing with anxiety, she shouted loudly: "Seventh Brother! Jump! Jump in my direction!"
But Xuan Tianhua did not move.
Seeing that the rain of arrows was about to fall from the sky and hit the live target, she became anxious and simply used her poor Qinggong to rush forward. At the same time, she swung her whip and the tip of the whip went straight to Xuan Tianhua, hoping that the long whip in her hand could touch his body instead of her.
Who would have thought that at this moment, half of the arrows in the rain of arrows coming from Tongcheng changed their direction. They were no longer targeting Xuan Tianhua, but were shooting towards the large minefield.
Feng Yuheng was shocked and realized what the other party wanted to do almost immediately. Although this minefield did not blow up a large number of Dashun soldiers, if Xuan Tianhua and her lives could be taken, Duanmu the old thief would have made a profit.
The arrows were too fast, too many, and scattered, and it was too late for her to go back to rescue. The tip of the fastest arrow touched the ground, and she stared with wide eyes, unwillingly watching the changes in the land. The speed of the mine explosion was broken down by her at this moment, from the cracking of the land to the protruding sparks, and then to the "bang" sound of scattering. Feng Yuheng forgot to enter the space, and just watched everything happen in front of her eyes, until a figure in white rushed towards her, and she subconsciously touched her left wrist with her right hand, and disappeared into the pharmacy space with the white clothes.
Just as she entered, a large piece of thunder exploded, making her head buzz. She only had time to smell the familiar smell of the pharmacy, and the next second, she lost all consciousness...
All the mines exploded within the five-mile defense line. Xuan Tianming, who was outside the defense line, had already seen Xuan Tianhua rushing towards Feng Yuheng when the first thunder sounded. At that moment, his heart was in his throat, fearing that the girl would not be able to enter the space in time. He stared at it, but unfortunately, as the thunder exploded, a large amount of thick smoke billowed up, instantly submerging the two people and isolating them from his sight. He was anxious and used his Qinggong to rush in regardless of anything, but was robbed by several secret guards behind him.
Then, a large number of thunders exploded, causing the entire land to tremble violently. The secret guards tried their best to drag Xuan Tianming back, but when the thunder buried at the edge of the defense line exploded, some of the splashed fragments still penetrated their flesh, densely packed like sieve holes.
Xuan Tianming almost lost his mind at that moment. His mind was blank. He could only hear the continuous rumbling of thunder in his ears. His mind was filled with the last sight of Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianhua. He didn't know if Feng Yuheng had time to enter the space. He wanted to rush over to see if he was broken into pieces. It would be worth it as long as he could prove that the two were safe. Unfortunately, he couldn't get in after all. He even heard someone say loudly in his ear: "Ninth Prince, even if you rush in, you won't find anything!"
What does this mean? Xuantian thought, the secret guards didn't know that Feng Yuheng had a Qiankun space that he could enter and exit at any time, so when they said they couldn't find anything, did they mean that the two people were blown up to the point where nothing was left?
He wanted to turn around and slap the secret guard, but his hand was raised up, but in the end it didn't fall down.
The one who should be beaten is not the secret guard, but himself! Xuan Tianming felt that he was very useless. With Feng Yuheng by his side these years, he seemed to have someone to rely on from the bottom of his heart. He relied on this wife for everything, so much so that at the critical moment of life and death, he could even let that girl go into danger alone. Is he a man?
The minefield of five miles had been detonated for half an hour, forcing He Gandu and a group of sharpshooters to rush over here. Until there was no more thunder, until everything returned to silence, they looked around and saw smoke billowing, like a thick wall of fog, separating them from Tongcheng.
He Gan had never seen Xuan Tianming look so absent-minded. He was an old man at the camp outside Beijing. He had followed Xuan Tianming for seven years and had fought all the way from the Northwest Camp to Zong Sui. Although he was later recruited by Feng Yuheng into the Shenji Camp and became the leader of the Shenshe Group, and although he recognized Feng Yuheng as the boss and respected him as his teacher from the bottom of his heart, in his subjective consciousness, Xuan Tianming was still his first master. This ninth prince, this great general, had always been proud and confident. That evil face never took anyone seriously. The army he led was invincible no matter where it went. Even if Feng Yuheng came later, it was just icing on the cake, not a timely help, because Xuan Tianming was originally that powerful.
But what about now? Now, He Gan actually saw despair on Xuan Tianming's face. This had never happened before. Xuan Tianming was actually desperate. What on earth had happened?
He looked around, but he didn't see Feng Yuheng who came here with Xuan Tianming. He Gan was puzzled and asked the secret guard beside him: "Where is the princess? Didn't she say she was coming to pick up the Seventh Prince? Where is the Seventh Prince?" A bad premonition suddenly rose in He Gan's heart. He seemed to have a clue and seemed to understand where the despair on Xuan Tianming's face came from. But he didn't dare to believe it, and stared at the secret guard with his big eyes.
The secret guards, who were usually emotionless, also had tears in their eyes at this moment. They didn't know that Feng Yuheng had a space, so perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope for Xuan Tianming, but for them, both Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianhua had been buried in the minefield, and even after such a long and large-scale explosion, they were afraid that not even a piece of their clothes would be found.
Seeing that the secret guards did not answer and each of them had tears in their eyes, He Gan could not help but understand. At this moment, he almost went crazy! He considered himself to be Feng Yuheng's apprentice, and all his skills were learned from Feng Yuheng. She taught them archery, the strange and bizarre tracking arrows, and taught them all the thunder and firearms. He originally thought that when he was too old to fight on the battlefield, he would stay in the army as an instructor and teach more people all his skills. But he did not expect that suddenly, such bad news came.
If Feng Yuheng no longer existed in this world, what would be the meaning of their Shenjiying's existence?
"How could there be a mine in Zong Sui?" Xuan Tianming suddenly said this. He was not questioning anyone, but just wanted to mutter to himself and think over and over again. However, the mine exploded too hard and lasted too long, so that their eardrums were slightly damaged and their hearing was temporarily weakened, so that even though they wanted to mutter to themselves, the sound they said was very loud.
He subconsciously knelt down towards the thick fog. When he heard Xuan Tianming's question, he was startled for a moment, then he reacted and said, "Impossible! This is impossible! How could there be thunder in Zong Sui?" But looking at the smoke again, even if he didn't see the mine explode with his own eyes, he could tell from the smell that the thick fog was indeed caused by thunder.
He was stunned for a long time before he said, "The master once said that no matter whether it is a mine or a gun, she is the only one in the world who can take it out, and no one else can have it. This is... why?" He looked at Xuan Tianming and explained, "This time when we went to fight Zong Sui, we only brought guns and grenades, and did not bring the kind of mines that can be buried underground. All the remaining mines in the hands of the Shenji Camp are left on the other side of the desert and are managed by Xifang himself. There is no way they can flow to Zong Sui! And..." He gritted his teeth, "Even if the mines flowed out of the Shenji Camp, it is impossible to cause such a large-scale mine explosion, because we only have less than twenty mines left on hand." Thinking back to the sounds he heard all the way here, there were more than twenty explosions, and more than fifty, so it was definitely not something from their side.
Xuan Tianming also knew that this matter had nothing to do with the Divine Machine Camp. He waved his hand and said, "I don't mean to blame you. I'm just curious. Where did Duanmu Anguo get these thunders? And..." He recalled the big explosion just now and concluded, "It's definitely not our thunder, because the power of the explosion is much weaker than our thunder. Three of their thunders are not as powerful as one of ours."
The tinnitus seemed to have improved. Xuan Tianming adjusted his state as much as possible, and warned himself again and again in his heart: Don't panic, don't be confused, everything is not final yet. He just didn't see the last scene, but at least he saw Xuan Tianhua was already beside her. The two should have entered the space. When the smoke cleared, he asked the army to spread the net to search. No matter how serious the explosion was, there would be at least some traces left. If there was no trace at all, it meant that the person was fine. ℃≡℃≡℃≡阁℃≡
Xuan Tianming forced himself to calm down, and his state of mind was quickly adjusted. He ordered He Gan: "Go back and ask Qian Li to order the troops to move out of the camp. The army will march here and be ready to attack the city at any time."
He Gan was also holding back his anger, but he had no place to vent it, so he could only charge into Tongcheng and settle accounts with that old thief Duanmu. After receiving Xuan Tianming's order, he immediately rode back. Soon, just as the sky was getting light, Qian Li led hundreds of thousands of Dashun soldiers to the fog wall in a mighty procession.
He Gan had already told Qian Li and several other commanders about the situation here, so when the army arrived, Xuan Tianming saw many sad faces. They were clearly an army for war, but they looked like a funeral procession, which made him feel upset.
"Get your spirits up!" He shouted angrily, pointing at Qian Li, "It's not time for you to cry yet! The king is not dead, the princess is not dead, and the Seventh Prince is not dead. Listen, leave 200,000 people here to wait for orders, and the rest of you all move forward, from here to the foot of the Tongcheng city wall, and search carefully inch by inch for me."
"What are you looking for?" Qian Li asked in a daze.
Xuan Tianming gritted his teeth and said, "Looking for someone!...Looking for a corpse, body parts, or perhaps, blood, flesh..."
At this moment, a soldier suddenly pointed in the direction of Tongcheng and shouted: "Look!"
