Nightfall Chapter 24: Shame is in the company, so stay here
Volume Two, Winter Lake, Chapter 24, Shame and Friendship, so stay here
At this time, Chaoyang has already climbed into the sky, bringing a rare warmth to the wasteland. The hundred shrine cavalry on the meadow stood silent and solemn, the black armor was painted with complicated golden patterns, and the incomprehensible armor patterns shone holy in the sun. The banners in front of the queue were hunting in the wind, looking extremely solemn and holy.
This group of cavalry is the world-shaking Xiling Temple Cavalry, also known as the Guardian Army. I left Xiling a few months ago and arrived at the wasteland frontier via Yandu Chengjing. This time, I was ordered by the upper level of the temple to **** some distinguished figures to the palace to participate in negotiations. It was the team Mo Shanshan told Ning Que.
The night before, they had already seen the warning fireworks fired from the food brigade camp, and through other means, they received a rune letter asking for help, but perhaps because of the remoteness and danger of the wasteland, this temple cavalry did not rush to help. Instead, they proceeded steadily along the original route until they met between the meadow sloping valleys that this ancient river evolved into.
Among the shrine cavalry, there are more than a dozen monks from the Moon Riding Kingdom and students from the Tianyu Academy, as well as a carriage.
The door opened, and a little foot in cyan cloth shoes stepped on the car board and walked down. It was a wrinkled old woman wearing a strange robe, which seemed to be made of countless different fabrics. The composition looks extremely thin, and I don't know how to reach the cold wind on the wasteland.
The temple cavalry escorted the students of the Tianyu Academy and the disciples of the White Pagoda Temple of Moon Wheel to the royal court, which is also a kind of trial, and this woman is the principal in this team, because she is the Moon Wheel The respected aunt Qu Ni Mati.
Because of historical reasons, Moon Wheel Kingdom and Dahe Kingdom have always had a very bad relationship. A few days ago, they were stuffed in the north of Yan in the South, and because of the Wenxi, there were some small frictions. According to the rumors, Qu Ni Madi, who is extremely hostile and careful Aunt, directly through the temple, let the girls in Dahe Country's Mochi Garden take on such a sinister task of delivering food. At this time, looking at the Mochi Garden disciples who were besieged below the valley, there was naturally no urge to rescue.
But after all, she is a predecessor of the spiritual world, and she has to maintain the dignity and glory of the temple. The meaning hidden in that narrow and vicious heart will naturally not be directly expressed in front of everyone.
Qu Nimadi looked at the wolf camp under the oblique valley not far away. There was no emotion on her face. Every wrinkle was filled with a cold and strange smell, and her voice was hoarse and sharp, which sounded very strange. Comfortable.
"Able to pass on the runes...The talisman in the grain team camp is unknown, but he cannot be underestimated if he wants to come. He can't deal with the horse thieves. There is always the power to protect himself. We came from afar, blindly. Not to mention that it is easy to cause damage to rescue, I'm afraid it will affect their defense deployment, just look at the situation.
The food brigade camp not far below the meadow is full of corpses, blood is full of the ground, and the car formation is about to collapse. The horse thieves on the gentle **** to the northeast have assembled and are ready to charge again. Everyone knows the camp. People were about to be unable to hold on any longer, but Qu Nimadi said that if she was talking nonsense with her eyes open, however, neither the monks of the White Pagoda Temple nor the students of Tianyu Academy seemed to hear what she was saying.
The commander of the Temple Cavalry nodded slightly to express that he understood that there was no strange emotion on his indifferent face.
The Haotian Daomen and Buddhism have always had good relations, especially in recent years. Because of the ruling of Lord Sisizuo, Prince Longqing, Xiling and the Moon Kingdom have become more and more intimate. As the leader of this temple cavalry, The Sizuo commander personally led him, so he always respected Aunt Qu Nimadi's opinions.
The commander of the temple cavalry himself is unwilling to lead his subordinates to rescue those under the meadow. He must protect the students of the Tianyuyuan and the monks in the white pagoda temple in the queue, especially the noble girl in the carriage, if he rushes out , Let her be frightened, how to explain to Lord Sizu?
Although he is a master of the Cave Profound Realm, his one hundred magic knights are the most powerful elite knights in the world, but the horse thieves on the opposite meadow still have at least two or three hundred knights to fight. These horse thieves were killed, and they would be injured if they wanted to. The life of every temple cavalry was extremely noble, and he could only bleed for the dignity and brilliance of the temple. How could he risk the untouchables under the meadow?
What's more, Dahe State is close to Tang State. The Xiling Temple has been dissatisfied for many years from top to bottom. At this time, it is necessary to let them suffer some pain. As for the civilian husbands and cavalry of Yan State... I think they are all direct descendants of Prince Yan Chongming. It has nothing to do with Lord Sizu, it doesn't matter if you die more.
As for the face of the temple and moral issues... the commander thought indifferently. Seeing that the guardian army is here, the horse thieves will also be knowledgeable and interesting. They must not do too much, and the temple thinks what to do is right , That's right, no doubt.
The commander slowly raised his right hand and swayed forward, indicating that his subordinate cavalry would be divided into three teams, the front, middle and back, slowly spreading out along the edge of the meadow, making a downward rush but obviously not prepared for battle.
In the camp below the meadow, there were faintly desperate crying and howling, listening to the foul language that entered her ears, Qu Nimati's face became more gloomy, and the overlapping wrinkles were angry. The sense of meaning gradually overflowed, and the cold voice said: "A group of untouchables who don't know their respect and inferiority, I want to see if the disciples of the book saint can have some ability."
The temple cavalry guarded the carriage in the center, always very quiet.
A beautiful girl is sitting calmly on a soft couch, focusing on picking the pistils for a pot of orchids in front of her, and she doesn’t know how she cares, so she leaves this delicate orchid on the cold wasteland. It's also so vibrant, but it's a pity that because the girl herself is as quiet and pure as an orchid, she actually took away all the colors of the orchid.
……
……
From the early morning **** battle with the horse thief, the food brigade camp was exhausted. The groans of more than a hundred wounded were gradually lowered. Numerous corpses were laid out in the middle of the camp. The carriage panels were seriously damaged, and some were burnt. Already shaken and uneasy, nowhere can he withstand another attack by the horse thief.
The people in the camp had already fallen into despair. At this moment, they suddenly saw a shrine cavalry on the meadow. They thought they had seen hope. Where could they not be ecstatic or even cry, and always silent, the girl Mo Shanshan sitting in the carriage. After confirming the arrival of the reinforcements, he also put down the ink pen in his hand and finally relaxed.
However, after waiting for a while, the temple cavalry on the meadow marched slowly, but did not see any assistance or charge. The cheers in the camp gradually subsided, and people felt great doubts and anxiety. Yan Zu understood that the formation of the temple cavalry should be used to suppress, not to attack. This speculation spread to everyone in the camp at an extremely fast speed, which immediately caused a new round of despair and pain.
I saw hope in despair, and then I fell into despair again, and the hope that was not far away fell into despair, no matter how strong the will is, no matter how pious he is to Haotian Dao, yes People no matter how respected by the temple could not help crying and then became angry.
Countless cries and anger sounded in the camp, and there was a lot of noise. People used all the foul language they could think of to greet the cold-blooded shrine cavalry above the meadow, venting their despair and anger.
Zhi Zhihua pressed her lips tightly and looked at the temple cavalry above the meadow and the old woman wearing a cloth robe in front of the cavalry. Although she did not speak, her eyes burned with hatred.
Her right shoulder was cut open by a horse thief's scimitar. After a simple bandage, she was still bleeding outwards.
The disciples of Mochiyuan were sent to the wasteland by the temple to perform such a difficult task, thanks to this old lady of the Moon Country, but today facing desperate situation, the other party also completely ignored the righteous friendship and looked on with cold eyes. People are not ashamed.
The female Tmall said angrily: "That old woman is a jerk, but how can the Temple Cavalry be saved? Don't they know that they will be punished by the Judiciary for not following the doctrine?"
Juzhihua showed disdain and spit on her feet fiercely, thinking that the Temple Cavalry was originally under the jurisdiction of the Judging Department, who can say that they violated the doctrine and acted shamelessly?
Ning Que lifted his hat and looked over the meadow.
This was the first time he saw the true face of the Xiling Temple Guardian Army. Thinking of the light and majesty of this cavalry in the legend, watching the opponent's actions at this time, he couldn't help but feel a little complicated.
"In any case, these disciples of Mochi Garden in Dahe Country are people who have received the edict from the temple to help the Kingdom of Yan. How are these temple cavalry unwilling to lend a helping hand?"
Ning Que touched his blood-stained face, and thought with emotion, it turns out that there are people in this world who have a thicker skin than him. After all, he underestimated the shamelessness of this world.
……
……
The arrival of the temple cavalry has also had a great impact on the horse thieves. Although they obviously have no intention of assisting the camp below the meadow, the guardian army has spread far and wide, and even a hundred horses, it still shocks hundreds of people The horse thief did not dare to act rashly, and the battle retreated. Several leaders galloped back to the meadow to ask for orders.
Faced with the pressure of the temple cavalry, the horse thief suddenly became nervous, and one of them trembled slightly, asking for instructions: "My lord, the people from the temple are not the enemy. Let's withdraw. Even if we can kill those in the camp, Afterwards, if the temple finds out that we are involved in this matter, I am afraid it will be detrimental to the general."
The horse thief leader indifferently looked at the temple cavalry in the distance, and a mixed laugh came out from under the masked cloth: "Want to wait for both sides to be disabled before taking action? After so many years, the temple cavalry still only They know how to calculate carefully, and I really don’t know why they got such a big name."
Then he looked at the subordinates beside him and said calmly: "Even if we are all dead, why does the temple find out who we are? Wouldn't you scratch your face before you die?"
The leader of the horse thieves led the army to encircle the food brigade this time. One of the important purposes is to consume all these horse thieves. Naturally, he will not cherish the lives of his subordinates. As for the temple cavalry on the distant meadow, he has nothing at all. Not afraid.
People all say that the temple guardian army is the most elite cavalry in the world, but as an important figure in the frontier army of the empire, how can he put the opponent in his eyes, even if there are some strong practitioners among the opponents, it depends on the current situation. , The other party should not be determined to pay a great price to stop himself.
"Go down together."
The leader of the horse thief lifted the reins lightly, kicked the horse's belly lightly with the heel of his boots, and walked slowly down the meadow.
……
……
A moment ago, Ning Que was about to flee. In the middle of the moment, Ning Que saw the temple cavalry coming. Since then, he no longer needed to escape. The next moment, Ning Que saw Xiao under the light armor of the temple cavalry and decided not to run away.
The temple cavalry on the meadow happened to block the best route he had planned to escape, but this was not the main reason why he decided to stay and fight with the girls of Dahe Country.
If the temple cavalry were to support horses at this time, they would be exhausted. The horse thief with heavy casualties would definitely be defeated. Of course there would be casualties, but the more than 200 people still alive in the camp would die a lot less , The reason why the opponent is not moving forward, except for reasons that he does not know for the time being, the clear reason is obviously that these temple cavalry and those who do not know their identity regard their lives as more important than the lives of these civil servants. too much.
The temple is universal in light, but he acts so shamelessly. Although he sometimes acts shamelessly, he is still ashamed to be classified as the opponent afterwards. What's more, he knew very well that these temple cavalry were all subordinates of Prince Longqing, and he and Prince Longqing could only stand on both sides of the river at any time and no matter where they were.
Moreover, the vigilance from the horse thief still exists. He still feels that someone is watching him indifferently. Before the temple's eyes, he can't get rid of this vigilance, so he has to erase this emotion.
Walking to the carriage and looking at the large package quietly resting on the carriage, Ning Que frowned, thinking that the people in the temple above the meadow were looking at this place, and decided not to use the Yuan Thirteen Arrows. The senior brother said that those who are worth his use of Yuan Thirteen Arrows in the wasteland should be based on Prince Longqing as the lower limit.
He pulled out something that was tightly wrapped in coarse cloth and looked like a stick. At this time, of course the life-saving thing must be carried with him.
"Can you still cast a spell?"
Ning Que looked at Mo Shanshan's pale face and asked.
Mo Shanshan raised his head and looked at him as if he was looking at the horse thief who was regrouping on the opposite side. He did not answer him, but slowly raised his right hand, holding a piece of yellowish paper between his thin fingers. .
Ning Que's gaze fell on the yellow paper between her thin fingers, and then said: "This time, we must cooperate well, and must be strong enough."
Mo Shanshan retracted his gaze, put his eyelashes quietly on his fair skin, and nodded.
Ning Que jumped out of the carriage, stretched out his hand to call to Tmall, and said: "It doesn't make sense to keep fresh water at this time, you go and prepare a big bucket of water for me."
The Tmall woman didn't understand what she meant, so she went to prepare water.
He led the **** horse to the outskirts of the camp.
The pace was very gentle at first.
Gradually speed up.
Turn into a trot.
He turned over, pinched the horse's belly, and urged the **** horse to run out like a black lightning.
Just like an arrow, it rushes toward the leader of the horse thief who just came down from the meadow.
The boxwood bowstring vibrates lightly.
A feather arrow went first.
