Slave to Empress: One Night Bride - C529 life-saving straw
It was a commander of ten thousand men, whose level was far above An Han. An Han hurriedly said: “This is the son of Fourth Prince, we do not dare …”
The Centurion was furious: “We can’t kill little prince, can we not kill these two barbarians as well?”
Before he could finish, a blade cleaved towards Hua Rong. Zha He let out a scream as he dismounted from his horse and stood in front of Hua Rong, forcefully pushing her away.
“Kill! Quickly kill these two! The general has ordered that none of you are to run! Kill …”
Hua Rong only felt a sudden heat rising up on her face, which blinded her eyes. His heart felt as if it had been pierced through by a hole. She suddenly became clear-headed. This time, unlike last time, she would be able to fly over and save his son. She couldn’t! This time it was Zha He’s blood!
It was this foreign man’s blood that splashed all over his face and body.
“The little boys… “Hurry up and run …”
His breathing was erratic. He only said this before his tall body fell to the ground, his voice coming to an abrupt halt.
“Zha He…”
“Uncle Zha He!”
Hua Rong pounced over, with some unknown strength, she grabbed Zha He’s arm and ran as fast as she could. At this moment, her mind was in a mess. She had completely lost the strength to think or even to grieve. All she knew was that she had to run forward and never stop.
Lu Wenlong restrained the Black Moonlight and shouted loudly. “Mother, quickly help Uncle Zha He up, quick …” In that moment, he seemed to have completely changed into an adult. He maintained his calm, urged his horse forward, and jumped off the horse. He used all his strength to support Zha He onto the horse’s back.
“Mom, come up …”
“Wen Long, leave immediately! Quickly!”
He looked into her eyes and saw nothing but blood, so terrible. He did not dare resist at all, mounting the horse and whipping the horse, he supported Zha He’s swaying body and rushed out.
Everything happened too quickly, An Han and the rest did not even have time to react. The one who fell was Zha He, why was it Zha He? The Captain was also stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted. “Chase, quickly chase …”
“They are too fast to catch up.”
“Release the arrows. You can only release the arrows …”
“Do not shoot, it will hurt little prince.”
“Is it really a little prince?”
“Oh my god, that’s a Black Moonlight, a Black Moonlight, indeed a little prince. I heard that little prince’s mother gifted him a Black Moonlight …”
In this dispute, the Black Moonlight had already charged into the shallow water of the watering river like a whirlwind. Countless Golden Army immediately surrounded Hua Rong. She stood in place and looked at these fierce Golden Army. Her teeth chattered and she was still holding onto her bow and arrows, preparing for her final attack.
The captain laughed out loud. “Alright, we’ve captured the leader of the barbarians. We’ve rendered a great merit …”
“Not good, my lord, enemies are coming …”
The Centurion turned his head to look and saw a group of Elite Warriors had rushed out from the Flower Pouring River. It was the Warriors of the Da She Tribe.
“Quick, stop them!”
“Quick, take down this barbarian first …”
Hua Rong also saw it clearly, and when she heard his son’s voice, she immediately turned around and shouted in female language. “Don’t kill my mother, whoever kills my mother, I will make the Abba kill him! “Stop, all of you stop …”
He already knew that these people would not kill him, so he mustered up his courage and charged forward recklessly. He bent down on his horse and stretched out his hand to stop Hua Rong.
Hua Rong jumped onto her horse, and the Black Moonlight immediately rushed towards the back. They avoided throwing mice and chased after him all the way to the river. Seeing that Hua Rong had escaped, Da She was just about to call out to her, Hua Rong shouted: “Quickly retreat, quickly!”
Da She did not dare fight anymore, and immediately ordered everyone to retreat into the Sly River.
This was a shallow water area, and it had only rained a few times this year for a short period of time. The river had yet to gather in large numbers, and once the horses crossed the river, the Golden Army would immediately catch up.
This group of Golden Army were like flies as they chased relentlessly. Once they passed the river, they would definitely be overtaken, and it would be the end of a total annihilation of their entire army. Hua Rong turned her head to look back, only to see that the distance between them were very close, Golden Army’s horses had also started to cross the river.
Seeing that the situation was dire, Golden Army suddenly retreated while screaming loudly. When Hua Rong heard this scream, she only saw Golden Army’s war horses fall one after the other, while the other Golden Army fell into the water, screaming miserably. She turned pale with fright and couldn’t help but look into the water. This time, she was scared out of her wits and saw that the river was densely packed with countless green, brown, green and yellow slender bodies wriggling. These were all snakes from Da She’s tribe.
It turned out that the fire had driven the snakes from the forest into the river. Fortunately the ancestors of the Da She Tribe were all used to snakes, so the snakes did not attack them or their horses. However, towards the other strangers who barged in, the moment they smelled the strange scent, they would not be polite at all. The snakes curled their legs and spat out long tongues.
Lu Wenlong also discovered the writhing snakes beneath his feet. It was the first time he had seen so many snakes. It’s over, Mom … “We’re going to die too …”
Hua Rong supported him with his shoulder. After all, he was just a child, and with his courage, he was scared out of his wits by the snake group. She also looked at the group of snakes in the river, at the Black Moonlight that had not been attacked at all. The fear in her heart had turned into a strong sense of relief and gratitude after surviving a disaster: she had never felt these snakes to be so beautiful and amiable in her life. It was also because of this that they understood the true origin of “Da She Tribe”.
Her voice was also trembling as she said, “Son, don’t be afraid. Don’t be afraid. These snakes are the ones that saved us. They are the ones that saved us.”
Behind him, the Golden Army did not dare to give chase anymore and could only stand far away from him to shoot. Unfortunately, they were too far away and the sharp arrow lost its might and fell into the river. Some of the Golden Army s directly shot their weapons at the groups of snakes in the river. Unfortunately, these snakes moved extremely fast, forming a large group.
The Black Moonlight finally landed on the shore. Behind them, the group of snakes and the Golden Army were all gone.
Hua Rong’s gaze followed Da She who was at the forefront. Two Warriors carried Zha He and flew through the forest as if they were flying. After going through the forest and leaving the grasslands, they would be able to catch up to the rest of the group.
Hua Rong took the lead, and at that moment, because Zha He had lost too much blood, the two of them had no choice but to put him down. The clan’s witch doctor hurried over, squatted beside him and fed him some strange medicine. When his hand reached Zha He’s mouth, it stopped, unable to feed him anymore.
Hua Rong jumped down from the horse’s back. Both of her legs suddenly lost their strength, and she didn’t dare look at the man who was lying on the ground opposite of him. His face was like golden paper as she completely lost consciousness.
Da She also arrived. He looked down at Zha He with a sorrowful face and muttered: “He’s a warrior. He saved many of us.”
Only Lu Wenlong mustered up his courage and cried, “Mother, Uncle Zha He won’t die, he won’t die …”
Hua Rong almost could not open her eyes, her entire body was covered in blood and tears. She shifted her gaze away from the Witch Doctor with great difficulty, and saw the blade that was aimed at Zha He’s back pass right through her chest.
She staggered, her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground. She couldn’t even cry.
The Witch Doctor waved the bottle, and some strange red liquid dripped on his lips. His dry lips moved a few times, and her eyes slowly opened. There was actually a glimmer in them.
Hua Rong was overjoyed. She reached out her hand and gently supported him, causing Lu Wenlong to almost jump up. “Oh my god, Uncle Zha He is awake!
Zha He had a smile on his face, his eyes were bright, and his voice was very clear, “The little boys, it’s good that you’re still alive.”
Hua Rong’s entire body was trembling, it was unknown whether it was because her body was too heavy or because her heart was beating too quickly.
“Zha He, I’m sorry, I’m sorry …”
Zha He looked at her, his eyes filled with pity and sorrow: “The little boys, it was all my wish. Unfortunately, I can’t do it anymore. I can’t help you take care of Wen Long and the Little Tiger’s head … ”
“Zha He…” Hua Rong could not speak a single word. His chest was blocked and he could not breathe.
Zha He’s bright eyes slowly dimmed. “The little boys, I really want to protect you two … “I really want to, but I can’t do it, I really …” “I really can’t be at ease …”
“Uncle Zha He, as long as you are alive, it is fine. You still have to teach me martial arts …”
“Wenlong, you have to honor your mother in the future …”
“I know, Uncle Zha He. In the future, I will listen to your words. Heh, as long as you get better … We can go hunting together… ”
Lu Wenlong’s joyous voice suddenly stopped as his head tilted to the side and his eyes closed completely.
That was the last bit of comfort before death.
In an instant, Hua Rong’s hands became so cold, and the heavy body in her embrace completely destroyed her in an instant. She heavily fell onto the ground, and her eyes sparkled like stars, as a burst of heart-tearing and lung-splitting wails could be heard. It was a savage teenage girl crazily rushing over, and she was crying hysterically: “Zha He, Zha He …”
With his arms empty, the body that was gradually losing its temperature was in the young girl’s hands. She gritted her teeth and her tears flowed as she hugged her tall body and cried crazily, “Zha He … Woo woo … * Zha He… ”
As Hua Rong laid on the ground and watched her sorrowful body whistle through the forest, she suddenly remembered her promise from the past:
“Zha He, wait until the days are a bit more peaceful, I will get you married and get you married.”
“Zha He, I will definitely find a virtuous woman for you.”
His words were still ringing in his ears, but he had already gone far away.
He had his own selfish motives. The road to revenge was so long, and the enemies he had to deal with were so powerful. Zhao Deji, Jin Wushu, just by relying on his own strength, was impossible to accomplish. There was no one that he could rely on. King Qin, if he wanted to marry his wife and children, he would have his own world to live under, and the “great cause” that his loyal advisors had planned for him would not be able to tolerate him, no matter how much he wanted to rely on him, it would be unrealistic and unreliable. But Jin Wushu being unable to become his enemy was already considered a good thing, how could he count on him?
Meeting the Da She Tribe was equivalent to being a lifesaving straw, so he wanted to grab onto it at all costs, wanting to own his first army. Then, one day, he would burn the stars and set the prairie ablaze. Only a strong army is the weapon of revenge and of resistance to a tyranny.
