 After taking a sip of water, Xia Tian felt he had recovered. He looked Sheng Li up and down, and was relieved to see that he was not at all uncomfortable. The mourning hall was filled with smoke, and he asked: "Is it just going to burn like this?" He was afraid that the fire would spread, and if the fire was too big, it would not only burn down the house, but even the vegetation and trees on the mountainside might be ignited.


Only then did Sheng Li free up his mind to manage the house. With a thought in his mind, the water in the ancient well seemed to be conscious. A water dragon rolled up from the bottom of the well and roared away. The heavy rain extinguished the remaining flames of the mourning hall.

The fire has been extinguished, but there are still residual billowing smoke rising, and a gust of mountain wind blows up a lot of black ash after the wood and cloth have been burnt, which looks like many carnivorous markings flying up Butterfly in general.

This scene inevitably reminded Xia Tian of dense black butterflies crouching on the village chief like a greedy vampire. He squeezed his palm gently, and when he thought of the appearance of the giant butterfly that he saw just now intending to suck Xia Tian's blood, he felt displeased, and with a slight movement of his fingertips, another cloudy rain fell, knocking all the black ash onto the ground. land.

Only then did Xia Tian heave a sigh of relief, and he carefully took out two tablets from his pocket, held them up in front of Sheng Li, raised his head and asked, "Do you still remember this?

" On the tablet, he was stunned for a moment after seeing this, and he lightly brushed the two names on the tablet with his fingertips, which clearly belonged to him and the little fox, but if he is not alive now, it is not just who gave There is nothing wrong with him setting up a memorial tablet, but his little fox stood in front of him well, even if his body was stained with a ray of yin due to the fusion of essence and blood, how could someone set up a memorial tablet and even enshrine it in the mourning hall ?

What's more, now that Xia Tian said "remember", he was obviously sure that he had seen these two tablets before, but he searched all the memories in his mind, and there was no information related to them, so he could only shake his head and said: "I don't remember, I've never seen it."

Although he had expected it in his heart, Xia Tian couldn't help being a little disappointed when he actually heard the other party say so. He put down his raised arm and whispered dejectedly: "I thought I remembered... If I knew it, I wouldn't have thought about it." I'm up, and I'm the only one who remembers."

Sheng Li saw his lowered eyebrows, with an unconcealable disappointment on his face, and when he heard him say "only one person remembers", he couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart, and hugged him. He asked in his arms: "What did I forget?"

Xia Tian looked up at him, "I set up this memorial tablet!"

Rao Sheng Li thought of thousands of possibilities, but he didn't think of this matter. This tablet was actually set up by Xia Tian?

The little fox muttered to himself for a while, and his mood, which had been gloomy because of remembering the old things, became much brighter. He carefully stuffed the two tablets back into his clothes, and said to Sheng Li: "The tablets I set it up, I picked the coffin, and I prepared the clothes."

Sheng Li was stunned for a moment, but Xia Tian just led him to the side room and said, "Let's sit inside and talk.

" The layout of Jianyang's house is the same as Sheng Li's Yin's house, and the structure of the room is naturally the same. The two pushed the door and entered, and saw that although there was no one living in the room, it gave off a faint stale atmosphere, but the inside was clean and tidy. , Even the tables and chairs by the window were not contaminated with much dust.

Xia Tian dusted off the dust with his sleeves, then dragged Sheng Li to sit on the couch beside him, put the two tablets on his waist, and talked about what he remembered when he saw the pattern inside the coffin.

At the beginning, Xia Tian felt that it was really unlucky for him to encounter kidnapping and trafficking as soon as he came to this small world

. No matter how long he waited for him, how long he stayed in this small world.

"In the beginning, I was originally the young master of the Xia family. Because of the harsh treatment by my aunt, I was sent to this remote courtyard in the deep mountains. Without an order from the master, I was not allowed to leave half a step." Xia Tian pointed to the front of his eyes. "I saw that the layout here is very similar to our previous home, so I simply arranged it like this."

"Then..." Thinking of what happened back then, Xia Tian couldn't help but bend his eyes and smile, "Then my aunt probably thought it was boring for me to stay here by myself, so she simply told me about a marriage." Hearing

this Here, Sheng Li frowned slightly, even if it was just an illusory marriage contract, he didn't want Xia Tian's name to be associated with anyone else.

Xia Tian didn't seem to notice Sheng Li's displeasure, but instead talked about the so-called "marriage" carefully.

"At that time, I just wanted to leave this deep mountain and forest to find you, so I vehemently vetoed it. The master also knew that I would probably not agree, so he promised me countless benefits for this marriage, including gold, silver and jewelry. Luo silk and satin are sent here like flowing water, and even the family who is going to get married has sent a lot of gifts. I originally thought that someone's ugly child would no longer be wanted, so I made such a big fuss with a despised child. The concubine got married, who would have known that when he saw the photo brought by the housekeeper, the person on it was actually quite good-looking, with handsome features and a righteous attitude, but why..." Hearing these words, Sheng Li's face darkened slightly, and

he The hand on Xia Tian's shoulders tightened slightly, he didn't want to hear the voice of the little fox praising others, so he exerted a little force, forcing him to lift his cheeks, while he lowered his head to seal the other's lips, It seemed like punishment and desire intertwined with his lips and tongue, so that Xia Tian could only utter intermittent □.

After the kiss was over, Xia Tian stretched out his hand to touch the red lips from Sheng Li's kiss, his eyes were full of smiles.

Sheng Li saw the cunning eyes of the little fox, who didn't know that he was playing a little trick, and smiled helplessly, and kissed Xia Tian's lips lightly, but it didn't break with the touch, but caressed it For a moment, as if rubbing it for him.

Rubbing like this for a while, Sheng Li asked: "What about that man?"

Xia Tian couldn't help laughing, "It's okay that man looks good, but he looks exactly like you, what do you say Coincidentally?" He said while looking at Sheng Li with a pair of smiling peach blossom eyes, his eyes were full of misery.

"What do you think?" Sheng Li pinched the tips of his ears, "That's me? But I don't remember." Speaking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little strange. Ever since he met Xia Tian, ​​he had borrowed the Taoist companion contract He was able to preserve his memory by taking advantage of the loopholes in the laws of each small world because of his domineering nature. Of course, he is no exception in this life. He still remembers his little fox, but he doesn't remember that he even gave a betrothal gift to marry Xia Tian.

The smile on Xia Tian's face faded slightly, "Of course the master won't remember... The Xia family told me that they are a family of yin relatives.

" But had to be buried alone, the parents of the Sheng family couldn't bear it, and they listened to what a wandering Taoist said, they had to tell their sons about the yin relatives in order to ensure a smooth and rich birth in the next life, so they released news in the city, asking Those who are looking for a person with a matching horoscope to form a yin relationship.

Originally, this was an extremely unlucky marriage, and ordinary people would avoid it, but the Sheng family had a rich family background, and the dowry gifts they gave were hundreds of dollars in gold. In Sheng's mansion, it's a pity that the horoscopes are not compatible, no matter how much you look forward to it, it is nothing but joy.

And Mrs. Xia laughed out loud when she accidentally saw the horoscope, isn't the horoscope just like the bastard she regarded as a thorn in the flesh! At that moment Mrs. Xia was thinking, and blew in Master Xia's ear a few times. Master Xia didn't care much about the concubine son born by this maid, otherwise it would be impossible to watch his child being sent to the mountains, and then Hearing the wealth and honor promised by the Sheng family, he was immediately moved, and personally went to the door of the Sheng family with Xia Tian's birthday horoscope.

Hearing Xia Tian talk about these things, Sheng Li felt even more surprised. He was afraid that he was already "dead" at the time, so he didn't feel the slightest bit. His little fox barely dispelled his displeasure.

Xia Tian raised his hand and lightly touched Sheng Li's chin to appease him, then brought the two tablets placed beside him in front of him, and said, "At that time, I didn't believe that you had passed away, I thought maybe it was your illness. Is it serious? Just like what I did before, I had to get married to celebrate the joy, so I agreed to this marriage, but on the day of the wedding, it was your clothes that came to worship with me, and everyone in the Sheng family only said you Died on the battlefield, the bones are hard to find..." At this point, Xia Tian tightened his fingers slightly, and pursed his lips vigorously, apparently until now he still brooded over the news.

That day he held Sheng Li's memorial tablet and married him, but he really didn't believe the Sheng family's rhetoric in his heart. He was able to come to this small world because of the power of the dowry and the Taoist companion contract. Suppressed by the law, it must be known that there are Taoist couples who are bound by a contract. The two of them are born together and died together. Xia Tian thought that since he lived a safe and stable life, how could his owner be so "hard to find" situation?

He originally planned to search for Sheng Li's whereabouts carefully in Sheng's house, but he was afraid that Sheng Li would be trapped there because of the secrets of the back house as before, but on the second day after the marriage, he hadn't brought tea to the Sheng family The parents were actually sent back to the summer house in the mountains.

According to the parents of the Sheng family, they received a dream from their son, asking them to send the bride back to the other courtyard of the Xia family immediately, and move in together with the tomb. After the Taoist priest entered the city again, he immediately invited him to the other courtyard of the Xia family to do a religious service. Only in this way can he be reincarnated.

Since their son's death in battle, the parents of the Sheng family have been looking forward to day and night, but they have never expected their son to fall into a dream. When the two woke up in the morning and talked about it, they were surprised that they had the same dream, even the son's words in the dream. They were all the same, so who dared to be negligent, immediately sent Xia Tian back according to Sheng Li's dream, and only waited for the report from the young man who was guarding the gate of the city three days later. I didn't dare not believe it, and respectfully invited a Taoist priest to come to practice.

Although so many years have passed, Xia Tian still remembers what happened that day still fresh.

He still refused to believe that Sheng Li had passed away. If he hadn't read the many photos sent by the Sheng family, he would have known that the person on them was exactly the same as the owner, and even the dimple on the side of his cheek when he occasionally smiled was exactly the same. , he almost thought that it was just a person with the same name and surname.

Therefore, when the Taoist priest came, he just watched with cold eyes, never thinking that after the other party danced his sword to worship the sky, he waved his mahogany sword, pointed at Xia Tian who was standing with his hands down, and said, "Hurry up." Please come forward, madam!"

Xia Tian was still ignorant, but was pushed forward by a few servants, the Taoist sword tip cut a bloody hole on Xia Tian's fingertips, then grabbed his wrist desperately, and forced to pull Then he drew a long series of weird characters inside the coffin.

Xia Tian didn't recognize the thing, and was about to struggle away, but he heard the Taoist priest say that it was for Sheng Li to pray for blessings. Did not break away again.

After finishing a ceremony, the Taoist priest packed up his things and left, and Xia Tian was begged by the bereaved Sheng family parents to stay in Xia Mansion for a few more days, and then seek some blessings for his son.

Xia Tian didn't want to stay in this barren mountain, because he couldn't feel the breath of Shengli here by virtue of the Taoist couple contract. If he stayed here, he didn't know how much time he would waste in vain. But he also knew that they were the real parents who worked hard, and he didn't want to spoil the parental relationship of the owner in this life, so he agreed to stay in the summer house for another seven days.

Sheng Li couldn't help but gently stroked Xia Tian's hair, "I really don't know..." Thinking about it, he might have been trapped in the private house at that time, so he didn't feel anything about Xia Tian's actions, so he didn't know what he was doing. He can only let his little fox guard the summer house in vain.

Xia Tian shook his head nonchalantly. He only wanted to find Sheng Li when he had enough time. He worked hard every day to cheer up and found something to do by himself. It was not very difficult.

"On the seventh day, I thought I had kept enough time, so I planned to leave the summer house..."

But before leaving the mourning hall, looking at the tablet standing alone on the mourning hall, Xia Tian couldn't bear it for some reason. He originally wanted to take away the tablet with the owner's name engraved on it, but there are guards in the mourning hall day and night The servant, it was unavoidable to be a bit ostentatious, but he was reluctant to let "Sheng Li" stay alone in this deep mountain, so he simply carved another tablet with his name on it and placed the two tablets tightly on top of each other. Together, it seems that we are not alone anymore.

Sheng Li laughed when he heard this, he is probably the only little fox in the world who can do such a thing like engraving a tablet and putting it together. He took the two tablets from Xia Tian, ​​stretched out his fingertips Rubbing the name on it, he said in a low voice: "It's really nonsense. How can there be a living person to set up a tablet for himself, but someone laughed at you?"

Xia Tian also laughed, his peach eyes were full of cunning, "Of course there are people who laugh at me. , but I don't care about them."

After going through the trials of these small worlds, everyone in Chambre understands what it means to "not be happy with things and not sad with oneself." The time they stay in a small world is limited. Why bother to be in the eyes of others, to live a happy life according to the heart, without harming others, is the happiest thing for the little fox. When he was the regent that day, he went against the crowd and picked up a child from the clan He was brought up with Sheng Li, and some courtiers said that he should spread his branches and leaves for the royal family, otherwise he might be discussed by later generations.

But the regent just smiled, "By that time, the king will already be gone, so I won't be able to hear what people talk about later..." He slowly glanced at the crowd, "Even if they hear it, others will say that he is gone, and I will not hear it." The king has never violated the laws and regulations of the dynasty, nor has he confused the blood of the ancestors, as long as it is a good thing to extend the welfare of the dynasty, it is worthy of the heavens and the ground, do the ministers say this is true?" The courtiers thought for a while

, No one dared to raise any objections.

After engraving the tablet, Xia Tian quietly left the Xia residence. He looked around on the top of the mountain and felt panic in his heart. The world is so big, and he didn't know where to go to find Shengli. For some reason, the Taoist couple's contract seemed to have disconnected the two of them, and he couldn't sense it. Only the essence and blood left by Sheng Li in his body washed his meridians again and again, gradually calming Xia Tian's emotions, and he calmed down. , according to a map I brought out from Xia Zhai, I started to search slowly from a nearby town.

He had been inquiring about Sheng Li ever since he agreed to marry the Sheng family, and he also knew where the other party fought. He had already made up his mind. Since the Sheng family said that Sheng Li died on the battlefield , then even if he turned over the sky, he still had to find his owner among the dead.

But until this moment, Xia Tian didn't know how big the world is. Without the guidance of the dowry, he could only try it out. Whenever he saw possible news, he would go to inquire about it, but he was often disappointed. And Gui, not to mention that he still bears the name of "the young lady who ran away from the Sheng family", so he has to cover up all the way, for fear of being caught back. Fortunately, he was quite lucky, and managed to slip out from under the noses of the servants of the Sheng family who came to search for him a few times.

Because the human form will be interrogated by the soldiers guarding the city when traveling between towns, and Xia Tian doesn't have much silver to deal with, so except when he is inquiring about news, he often turns into a fox, and this is exactly what he looks like , let him hear something by accident.

He still remembered that he was still resting in a ruined temple that day, waiting to go to the border the next day, but suddenly heard rustling sounds from outside after nightfall, the little fox thought it was a mouse in the temple, so He only covered his ears with a bunch of tails, and it didn't take long to realize that the sound was made by a group of small insects. He thought that if he slapped the insects to death, he would not be able to clean their claws, so he simply buried himself under the haystack and ignored it. Leave it alone.

Unexpectedly, not long after, another voice came from outside the house, and he remembered the owner of that voice clearly, it was the wandering Taoist who was holding his hand to write that day!

Hearing the vague mention of the word "Sheng Family" between the other party's words, the little fox immediately widened his eyes. He buried himself in the haystack calmly, and straightened his ears to listen to the voices in the temple.

The Taoist priest seemed to be arguing with others. Since the two had released Gu worms to sweep around the ruined temple before and found no trace of strangers, there was no concealment between their words. How could they know that the Gu worms were He can tell people from fake to fake, but he doesn't have the ability to recognize a little fox that can change into people.

I just heard the Taoist say angrily: "At the beginning, you said that the short-lived ghost of the Sheng family had a strange life. If he could refine it, he must be the most powerful puppet, but now after so many days, he didn't refine it. I'm the one who made me feel ashamed!"

The person who was talking to him was much calmer, he heard the voice of a middle-aged man, and the other party said unhurriedly: "But I also said that day, Sheng Li's body is fierce. One is not good, and it is not impossible for him to turn back."

As soon as Xia Tian heard the word "Sheng Li", Xia Tian felt terrified, and listening to the two of them talk, it is possible that his owner is really not good. ? But this small world was originally created for his trials, if Sheng Li was gone, where would the small world come from?

He suppressed his doubts, held his breath and listened carefully for a while, only then did he realize that it turned out that the wandering Taoist priest who went to the Sheng family to tell fortunes was a scam, and the two of them found out about the young master of the Sheng family from nowhere Fate, the two of them practiced crooked ways, one of which was to refine the dead into puppets, and Sheng Li was their fancy target.

Taking advantage of the timing when the Sheng family's parents love their son, they first recruited the nurse to make a fool of themselves and created the momentum of a world-class expert, and then used a wild fruit in Lingnan that can make people lose their minds and a long-term training. The dream-inducing Gu worms led them into a dream of nothingness, and all of this was just to bind Sheng Li's soul and finally refine it into their puppet.

It was only at this moment that Xia Tian knew that what the Sheng family said was true, and that his owner had died long before they married him.

I don't know if the trials in this life should be like this. The moment Sheng Li fell on the battlefield, his breath was still there, but his injuries were so serious that his spirit gradually left his body, wandering outside the city, but was caught by this man who happened to pass by. The middle-aged man noticed something strange in his breath, they had taken a fancy to Sheng Li Mingge and planned to come to act as a demon, and it turned out that he was dozing off and brought the pillows, so the Taoist priest used a vicious method to spend a hundred The ghost resentment was the chain, and the soul that had just left the physical body was already insane, so Sheng Li didn't resist for a while, and was easily arrested by them in the end. It's just that Sheng Li didn't die originally, but Sheng Sheng was plucked out of his soul, and his body died instantly, leaving only a bone.

Then, in order to completely turn him into a puppet, the Taoist priests turned back into the city and set up a scam. The horoscope they gave did not really make Sheng Li "reincarnated", but it was precisely their careful calculations that could suppress the hostility of Sheng Li's soul. Yes, and what he did later was even more nonsense, so much fanfare, but in fact, it was just to use Xia Tian's blood to carve a spell on the coffin to suppress Sheng Li's bones, so that his soul could not be turned over again.

Thinking of the clear-eyed look of the owner in the black-and-white photo brought by the Sheng family, and thinking of the memorial tablet held on the day of the wedding, the little fox can't wait to go up and tear the two into pieces, so that he can eat the flesh and blood. Let go of your anger.

No wonder he couldn't feel the existence of the owner. It turned out that the other party was trapped by these two demons, separated from him by yin and yang. Not to each other.

His sharp fox claws were looming, and he had to break free from the straw covering his body several times and rush out. However, the remaining sliver of reason told Xia Tian that he knew very little about what these two monsters were doing now, even if he killed him today. They didn't know how to rescue the owner. In addition, Sheng Li's soul was detained by them. His soul was separated from his body, and his body was only a bone. It was even more difficult for Xia Tian to retrieve it by himself. Therefore, No matter how much dissatisfaction there is, I can only endure it temporarily, and just listen to them carefully with all my energy.

The two argued with each other for a while, nothing more than saying that the recent bad luck was obviously caused by Sheng Li's soul haunting the ground. Seeing that Taoist priest was furious, the middle-aged man cleared his throat again, and comforted him: "Anyway, the most important thing now is to pick up the bones, even if his soul can be retrieved from the sky, so what? As long as we find his bones , put it into the coffin with the spell drawn on it, no matter how powerful the soul body is, it can only be used by you obediently like a servant." The Taoist snorted coldly, "If I knew this, I would have troubled me to take it with me

. His body came back, and I am too lazy to search for the bones now, and I don't know if the bones were gnawed by wild dogs, and I have to do something else.

" Zhou, you forgot that only the bones can make the soul recognize its master, not to mention that the younger brother has his own abilities, and this is the time for you to show your strength, and when you get the bones back, the senior brother will make amends to you." The Taoist priest was silent

. After a while, he said: "The master passed on the first and second chapters of "Puppet" for making puppets to you and me. Did you really forget it?" The middle-aged man said: "The younger brother knows that I am not good at learning

. It's understandable for me to forget about it when I go to business."

Xia Tian was surprised when he heard that this middle-aged man turned out to be the senior brother of the Taoist priest, but just listening to his voice, he felt that the man was very greasy, which was not a good idea thing.

Thinking of the owner's death for the country, but the bones would still be trampled by these two demons, and what's more about "recognizing the owner", Xia Tian secretly hated, he had already regarded these two as dead people, and he shook his head in his heart. He made up his mind, just wait for them to find the owner's bones, and then press for a way to release Sheng Li's spirit, then kill these two Taoist priests immediately.

After that, Xia Tian hid himself and followed the two Taoist priests all the way, and finally entered the border town where Sheng Li died.

Speaking of this, Xia Tian finally couldn't bear it any longer. Tears flickered in the corners of his eyes. In the blink of an eye, the tears fell like beads with broken strings. Sheng Li felt sorry for him the most. , This time I panicked, and I didn't care about the two tablets, I just hugged the little fox in a hurry, patted his back lightly with one hand, and coaxed in a low voice: "Didn't Xiaxia say that he was a big fox in the past?" Don't you cry casually? If you are sad and angry, just hit me to vent your anger. It's my fault that I didn't get out of that shady house earlier. Xia Xia, don't cry." Xia Tian felt even more sore when he heard it, his eyes filled with tears

. Turning red, she buried her face in Sheng Li's arms, rubbed against his chest, and finally choked up and said, "I don't want to cry, but the tears will fall out by themselves..."

Sheng Li felt distressed and funny at the same time. , kissed his hair, and said: "In this small world, I opened my eyes in that yin house. I have never suffered any crimes. Xia Xia has also seen it, right? The bone tree spirits underground are afraid of me." He said

so As soon as he said it, Xia Tian really felt much better, and lay in his arms for a while coquettishly dawdling, and then gradually stopped crying.

The little fox raised his head from his owner's arms, and saw that the other's clothes were covered with his own tears, he couldn't help but blushed, and whispered: "Get rid of it quickly." He knew that Sheng Li had this ability.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Li smiled, pinched the tip of his ear and said: "Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king. The prince has rewards, and I dare not refuse." These words seem to have been spoken occasionally after they reached the pinnacle of power. joke.

Xia Tian also remembered that when the two of them were getting along in the palace, he occasionally put on a princely air to play with him deliberately, and the owner was always so indulgent, he couldn't help feeling sweeter, hugged Sheng Li back, and raised his head against his cheek A kiss, and said: "This is also a reward."

"If you don't get paid for nothing, why does the prince have a reward?" Sheng Li asked with a smile when he saw Xia Tian's complexion warmed up, and he also felt relieved.

"... I like you so much for rewarding you so much." Xia Tian laughed.

The two joked for a while, then Xia Tian calmed down and told the rest of the past.

After he followed two Taoist priests to complete the mission that day, he saw that the city had been ravaged by war, it was already desolate, the doors and windows of every house were closed, and the streets were mostly wandering beggars.

Seeing these situations now, Xia Tian can no longer be as indifferent as he was when he first arrived in the small world. He only quietly helped a few children who were dressed in rags but had clear eyes. However, he also knew that his own strength was too weak. It can only make them live a better life for a period of time. To really save them from the fire and water, it is necessary for those in power to make great efforts to govern the country and the people.

If the owner was here, he would definitely be able to suppress the mobs in the city one by one, and restore peace to ordinary people... Thinking of this, Xia Tian's eyes darkened, and his eyes when he looked at the two Taoist priests became even colder.

"Brother, why do I always feel that someone is following us along the way?" The Taoist frowned and looked around, but Xia Tian followed secretly in the form of a fox all the way. recognize?

His senior brother heard the words and took a look, but he didn't find anything unusual. He did see Xia Tian, ​​but he saw the young man's shabby clothes and dirty face. He seemed to be a refugee in the city, so he didn't take it seriously. Instead, Turn around and persuade him not to think too much.

The Taoist inspected the surrounding crowd again, and seeing that the Gu worms on his body hadn't changed, he could only think that he was thinking too much, so he put the matter aside, and hurried in with the middle-aged man instead. Yizhuang.

Xia Tian thought that if he followed into Yizhuang, he would always find his owner's bones, but who would have thought that when he was squatting outside listening to the corner of the wall, he heard the old man in Yizhuang sigh helplessly: "You mean a soldier? Too many surnames have died, this yizhuang can't fit, and they are all on mass graves outside the city."

Not only Xia Tian was surprised, but even the two Taoist priests were surprised, knowing that Sheng Li still has some status in the army, Could it be that no one collected the bones when he died that day?

When asked again, the old man sighed, "The defenders were defeated, and the superiors were furious. A few days ago, the official who came to pass the message said that the corpses of the defenders should be thrown to the dogs. It is the people in the city who are grateful for the defenders. City, we worked together to send them to mass graves and bury them, but we didn't recognize the names of these military masters, and we couldn't set up memorial tablets, so we had to bury them hastily."

Xia Tian almost dug his nails into his flesh when he heard it outside the door. For a moment, he only hated himself for coming too late. If he could come to the border one step earlier in the morning, would he be able to save Sheng Li?

He followed the two Taoist priests all the way to the mass grave, because he didn't dare to show his figure rashly, Xia Tian just hid behind a big tree and looked around, all he could see were rolling small dirt bumps For a moment, he didn't know which one was buried under Sheng Li's bones, and his throat was unavoidably sore.

The two Taoist priests didn't care about this much. They looked at the grave bag in front of them and cursed bad luck, and then took out the good wine, food and other things they bought in the city before, and set them up as a sacrifice to the mass grave. After three glasses of wine, he took out something and threw it in the air.

Xia Tian could only see a black mass from a distance, and after looking carefully for a while, he realized that it was a big black butterfly. The butterfly hovered over the graves for a while, and landed on one of the graves as soon as it retracted its wings. on the bag.

The two Taoist priests were overjoyed for a moment, hurried over and started to dig the grave with their shovels on their shoulders. Xia Tian could only refrain himself from rushing forward at this moment for fear of causing future trouble, so he could barely hold back his steps.

However, at this moment, a puff of light blue smoke suddenly curled up from the mass grave, and the green smoke did not disperse in the wind, it just rose up from the mass grave as if it had its own consciousness.

The two Taoist priests dug out the bones and were wrapping them up. They didn't notice the sudden green smoke for a while, but the black butterfly standing on the earth bag seemed to be frightened, and it flapped its wings and flew up. The middle-aged man raised his head suspiciously, but suddenly realized

that his surroundings had been covered by green smoke, and asked in confusion, "What's the matter?" It was very clear that there were still figures in the green smoke, their faces were all blurred, and they could only see the cold silver light of the khaki uniforms and the badges that could not be concealed by the blue smoke.

Xia Tian's back turned cold, it turned out to be a Yin soldier?

Back then when he was still in Fengtai City, Sheng Li told him anecdotes about marching and fighting in his spare time, and this Yin soldier was also one of them.

At that time, Sheng Li was stationed in the mountains with his army, and he had just finished dealing with military affairs in the middle of the night, because he still hadn't found Xia Tian, ​​and he didn't feel like sleeping, so he simply raised the tent and wanted to go out for a walk.

Just as soon as he stepped out of the tent, he felt keenly that there seemed to be a change in the breath around him. The days of licking blood from the knife for many years made him tense. He immediately put his hand on his waist, ready to draw his gun to fight at any time.

However, he held his breath and waited for a moment, but no one appeared. Instead, a puff of green smoke suddenly rose from the edge of the camp. Sheng Li thought it was the enemy's sneak attack, but he saw figures walking around in the green smoke, but there was no sound at all. None heard.

Sheng Li knew something was wrong, after all, no matter how lightly he dressed, there would be a slight sound of footsteps when people stepped on the ground, but the group of people hidden in the green smoke didn't even have the sound of breathing, which was obviously not unusual.

The soldiers who were on duty at night in the distance also noticed the blue smoke. The soldier immediately shouted and fired a warning shot. However, the group of people seemed not to be afraid at all, and they walked forward step by step. The soldier saw that the orders were useless.

It was the first time Sheng Li heard of the Yinbing aisle, he saw that the veteran looked eager, nodded, drew his gun and shot into the sky, He said loudly: "All the Thirty-ninth Army gather! Dodge immediately when you see the smoke!" The

well-trained soldiers of the Thirty-ninth Army had already stood up and assembled one after another, and some of them had seen Yin soldiers before. Nerves tensed, the veteran who made the first noise had already run to the place where the gang leader was stationed. He and a gang leader carried a bag of white glutinous rice, ran to the edge of the barracks, and stabbed him with the bayonet on his gun. He tore the sackcloth, dumped the glutinous rice forward, then cut the palms of himself and the gang leader, and sprinkled blood on the glutinous rice.

There was no wind in the middle of the night, but the blue smoke seemed to be able to recognize the direction. It turned slowly and drifted towards the place where the veteran sprinkled white glutinous rice. The Yin soldiers with wide eyes turned around in unison.

At this time, a soldier was probably stunned. He was very close to the smoke, and couldn't help shouting: "They don't have eyes!" tripped over a rock, straight
