Novel Full Although he instinctively felt that something was wrong, Liu Suifeng didn’t say anything.
It was just his intuition. If he voiced it out, he would cause panic.
It dawned, and nothing happened during the night.
Although the soldiers led by Shi Qingshan were all well-trained, they could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
Long Xiaoyuan was the only person who fell asleep.
The others probably did not sleep.
Long Xiaoyuan was thinking about what to eat at breakfast.
Finally, Shi Qingzhou fixed it for him.
A bowl of porridge and a big pancake.
This was the standard breakfast of the marching army.
Long Xiaoyuan pouted, but he ate it anyway.
Shi Qingzhou had the same breakfast as Long Xiaoyuan, but they did not have breakfast with Shi Qingshan.
After breakfast, they were ready to set off.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou walked together.
Ouyang Chuan looked at Liu Suifeng beside him, feeling that he had something on his mind, so he could not help but ask, “What’s the matter? What’s on your mind?”
Liu Suifeng pursed his lips and looked at him, saying softly, “I somehow feel something would happen.”
Ouyang Chuan got serious. “What is it?”
Liu Suifeng shook his head. “I can’t tell what exactly it is.”
Ouyang Chuan frowned. “What is going on?”
Liu Suifeng smiled bitterly, “I don’t know, but I feel that something is bothering my heart.”
Ouyang Chuan paused, but he could only say, “Don’t think too much. Maybe you are just scaring yourself with your imagination.”
“Well, you’re right. Maybe I’m imagining things.”
Liu Suifeng smiled and stopped thinking about it.
The army continued their journey. Long Xiaoyuan felt drowsy on the way while he rode the same horse with Shi Qingzhou.
With Shi Qingzhou holding the reins, Long Xiaoyuan fell asleep.
Shi Qingzhou didn’t mind and let him sleep.
Long Xiaoyuan fell into a deep slumber. He didn’t know how long he had slept when he heard a loud thunder.
Was it going to rain?
Long Xiaoyuan abruptly opened his eyes and saw a strange scene.
He saw the fog lingered ahead of him, and he could not see the way. Next to him, Shi Qingzhou’s face looked blurry.
Long Xiaoyuan was startled, and he immediately realized that something was wrong. “Qingzhou.”
Shi Qingzhou seemed to tremble at his voice, waking up abruptly. “Hmm?”
Long Xiaoyuan felt a little cold for no reason.
“Qingzhou, where are we?”
Shi Qingzhou shook his head slightly. “I don’t know either.”
Long Xiaoyuan looked grave. “Qingzhou, something’s wrong. We can’t see the way here.”
Shi Qingzhou knew that there was something wrong with this place. In fact, he had found out that he had been enchanted.
He was riding the horse on the way just now, but his memory was vague.
When he woke up, it was like this.
Moreover, Shi Qingzhou thought that he might not have woken up if Long Xiaoyuan had not screamed!
The army was mesmerized secretly. How scary!
“This place is odd. I don’t know where the soldiers have gone…”
Long Xiaoyuan thought about it and said, “Qingzhou, let’s try to contact the others.”
Shi Qingzhou nodded. He set off the firework signal and then shouted.
Long Xiaoyuan also called out. “Anyone there?”
However, all he could hear was the echo of his own voice.
Long Xiaoyuan was stunned by the echo, and then he said softly, “Are we in some valley? We have echoes here.”
Long Xiaoyuan’s words surprised Shi Qingzhou. “Valley? There is indeed a valley nearby, but it isn’t on our way back.”
Long Xiaoyuan said softly, “The valley is not on the way back, but we came here without knowing how. Something must be wrong.”
Shi Qingzhou paused.
Long Xiaoyuan said, “Are we hypnotized? Like what you did in Pan Mountain.”
“Is it venomous insect again?” Shi Qingzhou frowned.
“More than that. I suspect there is a spell here.”
“Spell?” Shi Qingzhou was surprised.
“Yeah, there is thick fog here. Besides, no matter how big the fog is, it can’t block our view, right?
Since the people in Northern Barbarians have things like venomous insects, they might have spells. I’ve heard of many strange spells that can hallucinate people or make people get lost, just like a ghost pounding a wall.”
Thanks to the omnipotent cultivation novels, Long Xiaoyuan could talk the talk.
Shi Qingzhou’s frown deepened.
“If that’s the case, we are in bigger danger.”
Long Xiaoyuan thought about it and said, “We should stay together. Don’t separate.”
Shi Qingzhou nodded. “Okay. Let’s get off the horse.”
Long Xiaoyuan nodded as well. “Alright, let’s dismount.”
The two of them got off the horse and walked together, hand in hand.
Suddenly, there seemed to be something ahead of them. Shi Qingzhou’s eyes turned cold, and he thrust the sword in his hand. They saw two vague figures.
“Liu Suifeng!”
“Shi Qingzhou!”
They stopped fighting. “Did you see anyone else?” asked Shi Qingzhou.
Liu Suifeng shook his head. “No, I almost got enchanted. Luckily, I woke up in time. I guessed that the others might have been hypnotized. You guys are awake. Do you know where we are?”
“We suspect that this is the valley that leads to the Imperial City, but it is not on our way back. We don’t know how we came here.”
“Is it the valley?” Liu Suifeng was startled. “How do you know?”
“Based on our analysis. There are echoes here. It is just a guess,” Shi Qingzhou said.
Liu Suifeng nodded. “Alright. I can’t see anyone else here, nor can I find anything else. What about you guys?”
“We just woke up, so we don’t know.”
Liu Suifeng pursed his lips. “In this case, let’s go together. We have to get out of here.”
Long Xiaoyuan also came over and looked at Ouyang Chuan. “Haven’t you seen anyone else?”
Ouyang Chuan shook his head.
Long Xiaoyuan said, “Let’s get out of this damn place together.”
The four of them walked together. Long Xiaoyuan felt a little relieved to meet up with Liu Suifeng.
They took every step with extra care.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou walked together, hand in hand.
Suddenly, they heard some noises. Long Xiaoyuan froze, and Shi Qingzhou stepped up and protected him. Ouyang Chuan and Liu Suifeng exchanged glances and ran forward.
Ahead of them were two groups of people wrestling together.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou came and saw these people fighting with each other.
Long Xiaoyuan was startled. These people were their soldiers under Shi Qingshan! However, they didn’t look normal!
There were about fifty people in total, divided into two groups. They fought against each other like sworn enemies.
They were cruel to each other, which was abnormal.
Moreover, their eyes seemed to be filled with blood, as if they had gone mad.
They were ruthless, and many people fell down as a result.
Long Xiaoyuan was shocked and angry. “What’s wrong with them? Are they crazy?”
“I’m afraid they are crazy.”
Long Xiaoyuan gasped. “It is because of this damn place.”
At this moment, Liu Suifeng had already leapt into the crowd. He seemed to have taught Ouyang Chuan the method. They knocked out the soldiers wherever they went. Although the soldiers were mad, they were not the rival of Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan in martial arts.
Therefore, Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan didn’t meet any difficulties.
By the time Liu Suifeng went back to Long Xiaoyuan, the fifty people were lying on the ground.
Long Xiaoyuan went up to him. “What’s going on?”
Liu Suifeng said. “They are enchanted. This place is odd, and we have to get out of here as soon as possible.”
Long Xiaoyuan was eager to leave, but he could not find a way.
“What’s wrong with them?” Shi Qingzhou asked.
Liu Suifeng said, “Ouyang and I pressed the acupuncture points on their heads, so that they pass out for the time being. Otherwise, they would keep on fighting.”
Long Xiaoyuan nodded. “Will they continue to fight after they wake up?”
“They would stay unconscious for at least four hours. We have to find a way to leave during this period of time.”
Long Xiaoyuan sighed. “That’s all we can do. Let’s continue to look for the way.”
Thus, they continued to walk forward. As they walked on, they encountered the same scenes. Two groups of people fought with each other fiercely.
If Long Xiaoyuan and the others arrived in time, they would be able to save the people and knocked them out.
But if they arrived late, the people suffered huge casualties.
Three hours later, they arrived at a place.
There were about three hundred people, but there weren’t many people standing.
Those who fell to the ground were either seriously injured or dead.
This was the battlefield, where the one who lost the fight died.
Long Xiaoyuan’s eyes reddened.
The death of his own soldiers wrung his heart.
Long Xiaoyuan closed his eyes as he clenched his fists tightly. “Go save them.” His voice was hoarse.
Only dozens of people were rescued.
However, more people had lost their lives forever.
Shi Qingzhou was grave. He had not found his father yet.
They continued to go forward.
Long Xiaoyuan held Shi Qingzhou’s hand. “Qingzhou, don’t worry. Let’s continue searching. We’ll find him.”
Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan helplessly and nodded.
They moved forward, and finally they found Shi Qingshan, who remained sane. However, there were too many insane people.
There were dozens of people opposite Shi Qingshan.
He was the only one person who was sober, and there were three to five remaining soldiers on his side.
Shi Qingshan couldn’t hold on anymore. Thankfully, Shi Qingzhou and the others arrived in time.
“Father!” Shi Qingzhou shouted and rushed over.
Shi Qingzhou rescued Shi Qingshan, “Father, are you alright?”
Shi Qingshan was grave. “I’m fine, but they… “There was sadness in his eyes.
Shi Qingzhou said, “We had saved quite a few people and we knocked them out, but the first group of people that we have saved will wake up in an hour, and we don’t know what will happen. The valley is big and it took us a long time to get here. Now we have to find a way to get out of here.”
Shi Qingshan took a deep breath, nodding. “Then quickly come up with the solution.”
Long Xiaoyuan came over. “Hello, General Shi.”
“Your Majesty,” Shi Qingshan knelt down abruptly and said, “Your Majesty, I’m guilty.”
Long Xiaoyuan helped him up. “General Shi, let’s talk about this after we get out of here, which is the most important thing to do now.”
“Yes.” Shi Qingshan had to nod.
They moved on, with only one more sober person joining the team.
They might be lucky. After walking forward for less than an hour, they finally found the enemies who ambushed them in the valley.
The enemies attempted to hide at sight of Long Xiaoyuan, but it was too late.
Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan leapt up to them and caught two of them at lightning speed.
The remaining three people attempted to run away. Liu Suifeng threw the person in his hand to Ouyang Chuan and chased after them.
The three people who tried to escape were quickly caught by Liu Suifeng.
They were taken down before they made any moves.
None of the five people were able to kill themselves, and they were brought to Long Xiaoyuan.
“Are you behind this?” Long Xiaoyuan asked lightly.
None of them spoke.
“Kill two of them first. Liu Suifeng, I’ll leave the remaining three to you,” said Long Xiaoyuan coldly.
From the moment he saw his soldiers suffer countless casualties, Long Xiaoyuan had the impulse to slice the flesh off the people behind this.
Now that they had caught the culprits, Long Xiaoyuan didn’t want to spare any of them, no matter they were the guys behind the scenes or the pawns!
