In the book, I was fed by my sister

The snow fluttered down like the purest elves between heaven and earth, silently covering the vast earth.

Mountains, fields, houses, everything is covered with white snow, forming a world covered in silver.

Standing on a high place and looking at Fengxian from afar, you can see cities built of stones, which look solemn and majestic in this white snow scene.

At the city gate on the east side of Fengxian County, a group of people and horses fled in panic. The sound of horse hooves seemed extremely harsh in the silent snowfield.

Their figures became increasingly blurred against the backdrop of snowflakes, leaving only a series of deep horse hoof prints, recording the traces of their hasty departure.

There are three things that You Jinwen did not expect:

First, the emperor did not come to Fengxian.

Second, the Gu family in the city maintained a number of private soldiers.

Third, Concubine Shu is pregnant.

The emperor has been on the throne for more than eight years and has no children. Now Concubine Shu is pregnant and has returned to Feng County alone. The Gu family has raised private soldiers to control Feng County, which is bound to arouse suspicion.

The sinister and vicious look on Bodhisattva You Jinwen's face became more and more obvious, as if a dark cloud was hanging over his head. His heart was filled with anger and unwillingness, like a trapped beast, roaring in the darkness, trying to break free.

You Jinwen thought that he could take advantage of the night, disguise himself as a soldier and sneak into the city, and then cooperate with the outside forces to capture the city in one fell swoop.

However, he never expected that the Gu family had trained such powerful soldiers. They were well-trained and had strong combat effectiveness, causing You Jinwen's Huang Army to suffer a great loss.

Nearly two-thirds of Huang's army suffered casualties, and they fled back to Lihua Village in panic after being defeated.

Looking at those ragged and exhausted soldiers, You Jinwen felt even more depressed. He knew that their army had been severely damaged and it would be very difficult to launch another attack.

There were still more than forty of their people left in the village, plus those stationed on Baitan, You Jinwen estimated that their army only had more than two hundred people left.

The situation in Lihua Village made You Jinwen feel very troubled.

The village is mostly populated by women, children, and the elderly. They lack combat experience and find it difficult to adapt to military life.

Trying to incorporate these people into the army would actually be a burden.

Fortunately, this village had plenty of food, and the damage to the houses was relatively minor compared to the nearby villages. This made You Jinwen feel a little relieved.

The villagers temporarily believed his words.

They can take a short break here and recover some strength.

The people in the village helped him resist the pursuers. After returning to the south, they gathered more troops and then looked for the right opportunity to launch a surprise attack.

Arriving at the entrance of the village, You Jinwen suddenly tightened the whip rope in his hand, causing the horse to slowly stop. His eyes revealed a trace of vigilance and uneasiness, observing the movements around him.

Huang Zijun was seriously injured this time and had been looking forward to returning to the village to find the doctor to treat his injuries.

When he saw You Jinwen stop, he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Is there anything unusual?"

You Jinwen said: "No one is guarding the entrance to the village."

Upon hearing this, Huang Zijun immediately cursed, "Damn these lazy guys, I'm going to skin them alive when I get back." After saying that, he squeezed the horse's belly and prepared to move on.

However, You Jinwen stopped him again, his tone revealing a hint of solemnity: "Something is wrong, it's too quiet."

As soon as You Jinwen finished speaking, unusual movements were heard on the ground.

The horses were frightened and began to get agitated.

You Jinwen and others tightened the reins to avoid being thrown to the ground by the horses.

They thought the noise was an earthquake, so they stood where they were and waited for it to subside before moving forward.

But the next scene completely overturned their worldview.

The ground cracked open one after another, and more than a dozen vines emerged from them. These vines were as thick as human arms, covered with sharp thorns, and looked very ferocious.

"Retreat!" Huang Zijun shouted loudly. However, before they could flee on horseback, the vines swept over them as if they had spirits. For a moment, the horses were frightened and kicked their hooves and jumped wildly.

The vines seemed to have life, spreading wildly on the ground, like giant pythons wandering around them.

"Quick, rush out!" Huang Zijun shouted loudly, trying to lead everyone to break out. However, the vines seemed to have eyes, tightly wrapped around their horses and bodies. For a moment, everyone was dragged around by the vines and could not break free at all.

Subsequently, more and more people were swept by the vines and knocked off their horses.

Those who are lucky can avoid the horse's hooves, while those who are unlucky are trampled by them.

That was a fine horse bred by the Gu family. If you stepped on its chest, it would sink into a hole.

About twenty people died from falling off their horses or being trampled to death by horses.

Although Huang Zijun managed to survive, his skin was cut by the vines and blood was flowing.

He and You Jinwen struggled and escaped to Baitan.

There are still more than forty people stationed there, but they are all old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers, and they are mainly responsible for some logistical work.

You Jinwen's heart was bleeding when he saw the more than twenty people who had died here. He didn't know what had happened to the more than forty people who remained in the village.

Such a strange phenomenon would definitely disrupt the morale of the army.

Looking back, it was precisely by relying on this kind of theory of gods, ghosts and monarchy that I was able to bring together the scattered rebel forces.

Song Li looked at the group of people going away and breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, a comfortable life makes people lazy.

Especially in this cold winter, the plants have fallen into a dormant state, and it seems quite difficult to activate the vines.

People's field of vision is usually limited to 150 to 200 meters, and Song Li is well aware of this.

Therefore, she carefully used her special powers to guard against people who might appear within 200 meters around her, while methodically dealing with the bodies on the ground.

After a busy period, Song Li finally cleaned up the scene.

From a distance, it can be seen that this piece of land is obviously slightly higher than other places, and the snow and the soil on the ground are mixed together, making it look dirty.

Obviously, the soil here had been turned over.

But she buried it deeper.

The village is busy now. By the time they find this place, they will not think that there are so many people underground.

When it snows at night, this place will be clean again.

As for the five dead horses on the ground, Song Li scratched his head.

I don’t know if I can eat horse meat?

As Song Ran stepped into the house, he saw Song Li sleeping soundly.

She felt relieved that Xiaoguai did not follow them to the hall.

Song Ran still felt a lingering fear when he recalled the scene of the group going to the hall. Xiaoguai seemed a little nervous along the way, and said from time to time that she was a little scared. Seeing this, Song Ran decided to send Xiaoguai back home to prevent her from being frightened.

When Song Ran rushed to the hall again, he saw a group of people gathered outside the hall. They looked at the closed door, but no one dared to act rashly.

After a long while, Li Wanshu carefully pushed the door open, revealing a gap. When he moved closer, he saw that the room was in a mess, with some bloodstains scattered on the ground.

His heart tightened and he pushed the door open, only to see Wang Jun and others fainted on the ground.

The tragic conditions of those officers and soldiers were even more shocking. They were naked, with blood dripping from their necks, obviously having their throats cut by a knife.

Lihuacun and others looked at each other in bewilderment. They couldn't figure out why these officers and soldiers ended up like this, and they didn't know what happened to Huang Jun and others.

However, one thing is certain, these officers and soldiers should have been killed by the Huang army. As for why those officers and soldiers fainted, they did not know.

Faced with the tragic situation, Li Wanshu quickly gathered everyone to discuss countermeasures.

Let everyone move Huang Jun's body away and keep it properly. They must think of a good excuse and be prepared to deal with possible attacks.

At the same time, Li Wanshu also assigned several strong men to go to the village entrance and drag back the bodies of Big Beard and others.

While dragging the bodies back, they found the horses lying not far away and dragged them back as well.

Fortunately, they found the head of the officer and general. I heard that the general was a high-ranking official, so the head must be well preserved.

Perhaps, someone will come looking for me soon.
