Chapter 223 Don’t Come Over
Originally, the surface of the swamp was frozen, but Xia Yuanchen and his remaining guards rolled down and the surface cracked due to their own momentum.
And they lay in the muddy swamp in great misery.
"Major General, let me help you up."
"Need not."
However, the two were not familiar with the terrain. They had just sat up and stood up.
The body starts to sink.
There seemed to be an invisible pair of hands controlling them from below.
Xia Yuanchen wanted to get out, but the more he struggled, the deeper he sank. In an instant, his entire knees were submerged.
"What the hell is this place?"
Xia Yuanchen's face was full of bitterness, he felt helpless, and his mood fell to the bottom.
In desperation, he threw his sword onto the muddy shore mixed with ice, trying to reduce his own weight.
I tried to climb a branch or vine, but I didn't find anything nearby.
It's really like crying to the sky and the earth, but no one answers.
The guard beside him, Tian Xiaobao, tried to get out quickly, but his situation was not much better.
However, with every movement, his body sank further, and he felt that he would have to go find other guards the next moment.
"Major General, we are stuck in the mud."
"You're talking too much nonsense." Xia Yuanchen replied unhappily. Seeing the body of the guard beside him sinking deeper and deeper, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard his father say that he had encountered a black pool that ate people on the way to the battle. This must be a place like this. He hurriedly said,
"Don't move!"
Because of his words, the guard stopped struggling.
Xia Yuanchen tried to lie flat with his whole body in order to increase the contact between himself and the black pool, but at this moment, he was already sunk to the waist and could not lie flat.
If the enemy rushed closer now, they would be dead.
What are you afraid of?
at this time,
The enemy general Xin Meng chased after him and was now standing on the top of the mountain, looking down at Xia Yuanchen in the swamp and laughing crazily.
"So what if you escape? It's God's will that you die."
As he spoke, he moved his pierced wrist and inhaled in pain.
He will pay back this debt double.
He ran down the mountain.
Standing outside the swamp, I couldn't help but sigh twice.
He wanted to bend the bow with his right hand, but his grip was not strong enough, so he should use his left hand.
Just as he was about to shoot an arrow through Xia Yuanchen's head,
Just for the barking sound.
At this moment, Ah Huang was running towards them quickly with unbridled steps.
"Ah Huang!" Xia Yuanchen's eyes were sore.
If you come at this time, be sure not to add food to the enemy.
Tian Xiaobao, who was beside him, was very excited.
That's right, he was the guard who was sent by the major general to deliver the dog.
However, Ah Huang disappeared halfway, forcing him to turn back halfway, and for this, he was criticized by the major general.
"Evil dog, you want to block my way!" Xin Meng thought Ah Huang was just a stray dog in the mountains.
Killing Xia Yuanchen is the most important thing for him at this moment.
He shot an arrow with his left hand, trying to kill Xia Yuanchen again.
An arrow shot out.
Xia Yuanchen blocked the arrow with his arm to the side, and because of his movement, the arrow deviated from the ground and fell straight down, and was submerged in the black pool in an instant.
The guards beside him had a lifelong duty to protect the young general. Seeing this, their hearts were in their throats.
Fortunately, there was no danger.
No, the obstacles are getting worse.
Because of the action of blocking the arrow just now, Xia Yuanchen's body sank again and quickly sank above the waist. He looked as pitiful as possible.
At this moment, Ah Huang's figure was still approaching.
"Ah Huang!" Xia Yuanchen called out anxiously.
Ah Huang thought his master thought he ran too slowly.
In fact, it is already running hard.
It ran so fast that it almost hit a tree.
Ah Huang didn't waste a moment and continued running.
Xin Meng's fierce eyes flashed, and he turned to look at Ah Huang not far away, with a sarcastic expression on his face.
Then, he continued to aim his arrow at Xia Yuanchen's forehead.
The moment he bent the bow with his left hand and drew the arrow, Xia Yuanchen lowered his eyes and prepared to die.
He felt that if Youlan Province was recovered, it would be worth it even if he died.
Beside him, the guard Tian Xiaobao was already so anxious that his eyes turned red, and he kept shaking his head.
Little did people know that Xin Meng's first arrow was aimed at Xia Yuanchen, but when he shot the arrow, because his left hand was clumsy, the arrow actually shot straight at Tian Xiaobao's body.
With a hissing sound, blood oozed from the corner of Tian Xiaobao's lips. He lowered his eyes to look at the arrow on his body.
The pain was overwhelming, but it was not as painful as the pain of despair.
Xia Yuanchen looked back and said, "Hold on, you won't die!"
"Major General, I have no regrets in dying with your words."
"This general will not allow you to die." Xia Yuanchen whispered. There was only one guard left for him by his father, which made him hate the enemy general from Northern Yan in front of him very much.
Originally, the two countries could live in harmony, but Northern Yan repeatedly tried to capture their cities to the east, steal their food, and kill their people.
Damn it, he deserves to die!
"Don't worry, no one will survive." Xin Meng was very interested.
He wanted to shoot an arrow through Xia Yuanchen's forehead.
But suddenly, there was a sharp pain in my ankle.
Ah Huang stepped forward.
Its face was furious, and it bit down with a snap, tearing off a piece of flesh at Xin Meng's ankle.
Xin Meng was in great pain and was pounced on by Ah Huang. Xin Meng turned his body and stabbed Ah Huang's neck with a long arrow.
Xia Yuanchen was extremely anxious.
Ah Huang will not hide, but will rush forward.
Xin Meng was in severe pain in his ankle and could hardly stand, so the arrow pierced Ah Huang's back.
Ah Huang cried out in pain, howling twice. The pain in his back seemed to drive him crazy.
It pounced again, Xin Meng cursed, and the fight between man and dog lasted only a moment...
Xin Meng's hands and feet were injured, so he had difficulty moving.
This was the first time I was scared to death by a dog.
He turned around and ran away quickly, ignoring the pain in his ankle and wrist.
Anyway, Xia Yuanchen is trapped in the dark pool and will not survive.
He ran very fast, fearing that Ah Huang would catch up with him again.
In fact, Ah Huang's mind and eyes are full of his master, so of course he won't chase after him.
At this moment, I just wanted to get closer to the edge of the black pool.
But then Xia Yuanchen shouted urgently,
"Don't come over!"
Of course Ah Huang didn't understand what was said, but he stopped in his tracks because of Xia Yuanchen's exclamation.
As if realizing that his master was trapped,
It barked and turned around anxiously near the black pool.
"Has Brother Ling arrived?" Xia Yuanchen asked himself, and shook his head.
"Brother Ling is currently recovering Youlan. How could he come here at such a critical moment?"
at this time,
He heard the sound of horses' hooves.
The sound of horse hooves came from far away, making Xia Yuanchen's face turn pale.
"Major General, could it be that the enemy is coming?" Tian Xiaobao's face was also pale.
The first reaction in my mind was that I was dead.
"Ah Huang, go!" Xia Yuanchen began to expel Ah Huang as usual.
Ah Huang left and ran away quickly.
Xia Yuanchen looked at its departing back and closed his eyes in despair.
If the enemy comes, he will surely die.
Ah Huang barked all the way, looking for a stick to bite.
As he ran, he ran towards the battlefield.
Suddenly, I saw a tall and familiar figure on horseback.
