The big man lowered his head and said with a wry smile, "We really can't run anymore."
Tang Yin looked carefully, the soldiers in front of him were in a really sorry state, all of them were injured, their entire bodies were covered in blood, the armor they wore were all broken apart, their faces were ashen, their eye sockets were sunken, they did not look like soldiers, but more like refugees who had not eaten or slept for a few days.
Letting out a sigh, Tang Yin did not ask any more questions. Just then, Qiu Zhen walked over with a smile on his face. "So all of you are on the same side as me, I was really shocked just now." With that, he rolled his eyes and said, "Do you want to die or live?"
All the soldiers were stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant.
Qiu Zhen said: "If you want to die, then stay here. Before long, the pursuers from Ning Country will arrive here.
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Tang Yin's sharp eyes had already locked onto him. One Qiu Zhen was already troublesome enough, he did not wish to be burdened by so many others.
Even though he hadn't known Tang Yin for very long, Qiu Zhen already had an understanding of Tang Yin's personality. His own personality was cold and indifferent, so he hurriedly pulled him to the side and said in a low voice: "Tang … Brother Tang, having more people is not a problem. On the contrary, the more people there are, the safer we will be. At least with a few more helpers, there won't be any harm. Moreover, if you ignore them, it will be very difficult for them to return to their homeland alive. "
Because he needed Tang Yin's name, Qiu Zhen called him by his first name, Brother Tang.
Tang Yin did not mind Qiu Zhen's righteous look, but his words still made Tang Yin frown. He could not help but turn his head to look at the few Feng Country soldiers, who were staring at him pitifully with their eyes wide open. If it was in the past, Tang Yin would definitely not care about the lives of these people, but after combining with Yan Lie, his nature had already started to change. It became hot-blooded, and couldn't be as straightforward or as heartless as his state in the past.
"Do whatever you want!" Tang Yin threw down a few words, and continued to walk forward.
Qiu Zhen laughed, turned and called out to everyone: "Brother Tang has already promised to bring you guys away, quickly follow me!" Qiu Zhen was definitely not a warmhearted person, even if the soldiers were dead or alive, he did not care, he had one sentence that was true, the more people there were, the safer he and Tang Yin would be.
Tang Yin was indifferent, making it difficult for people to get close to him, but Qiu Zhen, who truly had a kind heart, quickly blended in with the other soldiers.
"My name is Qiu Zhen." Qiu Zhen introduced himself while smiling, then said to Tang Yin who was walking in front of him with a bow in his mouth, "He is called Tang Yin, and you guys have all seen how powerful he is, right? The dozens of Ning Country cultivators who were attacking you all just now were killed by him alone! "
"Ah?" He … He killed so many enemies by himself? " The soldiers looked at Tang Yin's back in disbelief. No matter how they looked at it, Tang Yin was very ordinary, his body was not tall and strong, his looks were not fierce, and he was even wearing the clothes of an ordinary soldier.
"Of course! I saw it with my own eyes. "
"Then why don't you take off the enemy's head?" The soldiers asked again, puzzled.
Because Tang Yin did not even give him a chance! How great a contribution it would be to have so many people and hundreds of heads! Qiu Zhen felt very regretful. Of course, he could only feel regretful in his heart, and spoke with a solemn tone: "We are currently escaping for our lives. Is life more important or is military merits more important? "Moreover, you were not present at that time, otherwise …" He sighed and shook his head.
"That's true!" Everyone nodded and replied: "If we knew Tang Yin was so powerful, we would not have run!"
Qiu Zhen frowned. "Since you're following Brother Tang right now, you should listen to his orders and not call him by his name. Call him Big Brother Tang from now on!" It was good to have more people, but if it was just a loose end, it would be bad. Thus, they had to be cohesive and have a core. Qiu Zhen admitted that he was no match for them, and Tang Yin, of course, was the core.
In this chaotic world, whoever was stronger was the master, and whoever was weaker was the leader. Everyone looked at each other and nodded, they felt that Qiu Zhen's words were reasonable, so they quickened their pace and caught up to Tang Yin, and introduced themselves: "Big Brother Tang, I am Zhang Bao." The big size man who pierced Tang Yin's spear with his In Grass spoke first.
"My name is Liu Yu."
"My name is Zhang Yi."
"My name is …"
Hearing their names, Tang Yin didn't show much of a reaction on the surface, but he had already silently noted in his heart that these people originally belonged to two different worlds.
Knowing that their stamina was already at the end of their tether, Tang Yin stopped and said indifferently: "Let's rest here."
"Alright!" Hearing this, all of the soldiers felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted, they all sat down on the ground, breathing heavily, including Qiu Zhen.
After resting for a while, he moved to Tang Yin's side and said: "We are still at least one hundred fifty kilometers away from the Tong Gate. If there are any horses, we can rush there in a day, but if we walk, I'm afraid we will have to walk for another three to four days!"
Tang Yin replied and waited for Qiu Zhen to continue.
Qiu Zhen continued: "So we must find horses."
Tang Yin asked curiously: "Can't you walk?"
Qiu Zhen shook his head and replied: "I'm worried about going to the Tong Gate on foot.
Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and asked: "What do you mean?"
Qiu Zhen said in a serious tone: "We are fleeing in the direction of the Tong Gate, and aren't the people from the Ning Country also escaping in that direction?" While speaking, he lightly sighed, and said: "The Tong Gate is the western gate of my Feng Country, and can be attacked, retreat, and defend. All this time, the Ning Country s are always drooled over by me, and if I wish to take possession of the Tong Gate, it is just that the location of the Tong Gate is dangerous, and the defenses are tight, so the Ning Country is unreachable. I think that the Ning Country will not let go of this excellent opportunity and will definitely launch an attack. Right now, there are already countless profound practitioners gathered outside of the Tong Gate, if we delay for another three or four days, who would still have a chance to enter? "
Tang Yin lowered his head in thought. After thinking for a while, he said: "You said that Ning Country will seize the opportunity to attack Tong Gate? This is just your guess. "
Qiu Zhen laughed bitterly: "Even though it's just my guess, I can guarantee that it's not far from the truth."
Tang Yin said: "Even if that is the case, where will we be able to find horses?"
"There's only one way?"
"Go steal?"
"Yes!" Qiu Zhen said: We are lying in ambush on both sides of the road, regardless of whether they are Wind Man or Ning Man, as long as they have fewer people and horses, we will rush out to snatch them. With your skills and those brothers, I think we can't take on a team!
Tang Yin thought for a moment, then nodded: "Alright."
The two had just finished talking when a young soldier from Feng Country walked closer to Tang Yin. He held a water bag in his hand and handed it over to Tang Yin with a timid look on his face, stuttering, "Tang … Big Brother Tang, drink this water. "
Tang Yin's appearance was not scary at all. On the contrary, he was extremely handsome with the corners of his mouth curled up naturally, making him look like he was laughing. It was just that his gaze was too cold, and would always shine brightly when his eyes moved, causing others to not dare look straight at him.
Water? Tang Yin took a look at the young man, he was young, only around sixteen or seventeen years old. In his world, this young man could only be considered a child, but here, the young man was already a warrior who wielded a sharp blade. He remembered that the young man's name was Sun Bao. Seeing that his lips were cracked, he indifferently said, "I'm not thirsty, drink by yourself."
"Then... "How can that be …" The young man turned around and looked at his other companions, then quickly placed the water bag at Tang Yin's feet. Then, he took out an oily paper package and opened it. These things and water were all gathered together by them. He was reluctant to eat or drink, so he left all of them for Tang Yin. Leaving food to the strongest, and keeping the strongest alive, was, in their view, a matter of right and wrong.
Tang Yin looked at the young man, then looked at the other soldiers, all of their pale white faces, and it was not hard to guess that they were also hungry and thirsty right now, but even under this kind of situation, they still gave him food and drinks, making him suddenly have a strange feeling in his heart. It was a feeling that he had never experienced before.
He stood up and walked into the depths of the grass without a word.
"Big Brother Tang, where are you going?"
His actions scared everyone, they thought that what they had done was not so easy to anger Tang Yin, so they abandoned them.
Tang Yin turned around and laughed, then said softly, "I'll be right back!"
When he smiled from the bottom of his heart, it was very charming and also very infectious. There was no coldness in it, making the people around him feel warm.
He left as fast as he came back, but when he came back, he had nothing in his hands, and in his hands were two big, fat, wild rabbits.
He threw the rabbit in front of them and said, "Let's eat this today."
