Chapter 1037: Yes, my father...
This sight made Lei Yu's heart tremble, and he subconsciously felt something.
I heard the soldier say: "The war in Luoyang is fierce. After Yu Wenye captured Dagu and Sheyuan Pass, the soldiers in other Guanyi were in chaos. Just a few days ago, the soldiers in Xiaopingjin Pass The soldiers killed the guard and surrendered to Dasheng. "
"...! "
This sentence was like a thunder, falling from the sky and hitting Lei Yu's head.
Her whole body seemed to be empty, and she stood there blankly, silent for a moment.
The guards on Shang Ruyi's side were overjoyed when they heard the news. Before setting off, they had already heard about King Qin's war in Luoyang and successfully captured the eight cities. He has won several passes, which can be said to be an outstanding military achievement. Unexpectedly, he did not even need to fight the Xiaopingjing Pass, which was so important. Only with the great reputation, the soldiers guarding the pass surrendered automatically.
Isn’t this a great blessing from God?
Li Miao and Gao Chen looked at each other and even whispered excitedly: "Okay!"
On one side, the crowd was still angry, but on the other side, they were elated. At that time, Shang Ruyi stopped talking.
At this time, she only felt an indescribable uneasiness, like a huge net suddenly falling from the sky, covering her whole body, and even breathing and heartbeat became a little difficult. She took a deep breath, but still felt that her chest was bound, and she couldn't relax it. She could only squeeze out a little sound from her throat, and asked the soldier: "Who is the guard of Xiaopingjin Pass?"
"Yes, my father..."
A hoarse and low voice sounded, and Lei Yu slowly turned his head. There was no trace of vitality on his pale face, and everything was lost in his eyes. In the light, his dark eyes glanced at Shang Ruyi.
One glance made her whole body feel like she had fallen into an ice cave, and her limbs and body suddenly became cold.
Wuxue, who was protecting Shang Ruyi, also gasped at this time.
The guard of Xiaoping Jinguan turned out to be Lei Yu's father, Lei Yi? !
Shang Ruyi clenched her fists hard, but at this time, looking at Lei Yu's dark eyes, she only felt that her whole body was hollow. She could not feel her fingers at all, and even her body was empty. I couldn't feel anything, just an indescribable pain coming from all directions.
She took a deep breath again, but she didn’t know where the breath went.
She said: "Lei Yu..."
After calling her name, Shang Ruyi's throat was blocked, although she had a lot to say - all of this, Is it fake? Could all this be fake? If Yu Wenye knew that the guard at Xiaopingjin Gate was Lei Yi, he would not necessarily attack fiercely. He would probably come up with a foolproof strategy to outwit them.
But just thinking about it made her heart feel completely cold.
Indeed, whether it is from the consideration of the war, the consideration of their old acquaintance with the Lei family father and daughter, or just the consideration of Liang Shide, it is very likely that after losing the first few passes such as Dagu and Sheyuan, if If Xiaopingjinguan was attacked again, he would definitely send reinforcements from Luoyang to help. It was unlikely that Yu Wenye would use the previous method to attack Xiaopingjinguan.
The most likely thing for him is to use the fact that he and Lei Yi were old acquaintances, and that the other three passes in the eight-pass city have been captured, to lure the defenders of Xiaopingjing Pass to surrender.
But, Lei Yi, what will he do?
Under normal circumstances, he might rebel. After all, this is his way to survive.
But now, Lei Yu is in the Western Turks, and was captured by Ashina Zhuxie after he killed Chali Khan and Iasu. Liang Shide also sent Wang Shaoqiu to the Western Turks to ask for help. Without knowing that Wang Shaoqiu had died in Tianding Mountain, Lei Yi would not dare to act rashly for the sake of his daughter's safety. The only thing he could do for his daughter's safety was to hold on.
But his subordinates and other generals at Xiaopingjinguan do not need to consider this. They only need to consider how to stand in line and how to maintain their positions. In this case , it was their choice to seek refuge with the invincible Yu Wenye!
The only thing that hinders their choice is Lei Yi...
So...
All this is true!
Shang Ruyi's eyes were reddened by the heat that surged from her heart in an instant, and she was almost ready to shed tears. She choked hard, and a struggling, hoarse voice came out from her throat, and she asked again. What he said was all he could say: "Lei Yu..."
Lei Yu slowly turned his head.
There was no light in her eyes. At this time, it seemed that her whole body was about to be swallowed up by the night. Even though the soldiers and guards around her were holding torches high, they could no longer light up her way forward. Ashina Zhuxie stepped forward and grabbed her arm forcefully.
It was only then that Lei Yu suddenly realized that she was shaking and almost falling.
Ashina Zhuxie caught her and supported her.
Probably out of desperation, he did not control his strength. Lei Yu only felt pain in her arm from being pinched, but this pain was like a very thin line, pulling her out of the boundless abyss. He was brought back.
As soon as Lei Yu raised his head, he saw the injuries on his neck and jaw. It was more like being burned at this moment, and tears suddenly burst out of his eyes.
“I, I——”
She wanted to say something, but she could no longer say a word. Silent crying filled the silence of this moment.
Ashina Zhu Xie took her into his arms, and when he looked up at Shang Ruyi, there was no trace of mercy left in those cold wolf eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Kill them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Turkic soldiers behind him who had long been unable to suppress their anger immediately rushed forward. The steel swords in their hands flashed bright light in the night sky and slashed at Shang Ruyi and others.
"Be careful, Princess!"
Wuxue exclaimed and immediately pulled Shang Ruyi behind him. Li Miao, Gao Chen and others reacted quickly and rushed up with the people behind them. Fighting together with the Turkic soldiers, the silence in the wilderness was completely broken by roars and exclamations for a while, and the cold night was immediately tainted with a thick smell of blood.
“Princess, let’s go quickly!”
With quick eyes and quick hands, Wo Xue kicked over a Turkic soldier who rushed through the crowd and wanted to kill Shang Ruyi. He turned around and grabbed Shang Ruyi's wrist to take her back to the camp - although their accompanying guards were also carefully selected. , but only these people are far inferior to the Turkic soldiers brought by Ashina Zhuxie, and there is no possibility of victory at all. If Shang Ruyi is really hurt, it will be terrible!
Just when she was about to run away with Shang Ruyi, she felt her wrist sink. When she looked back, it was Shang Ruyi's hand that fell on the back of her hand.
Looking up at her again, she saw her eyes flickering, as if she was comforting, but also as if she was waiting for something.
Shang Ruyi said: "Don't panic."
