Shen Nanxing and others traveled day and night, not daring to stop for a moment. Finally, at dusk on the second day, they met the Xining Fengwei who came to pick them up.
They are safe.
After calming down, Shen Ming asked, "What are the identities of those men in black?"
Shen Nanxing: "Mingwei Iron Cavalry."
The man in black who spoke to her before was Shi Tou. It was only after she secretly investigated that she found out that Shi Tou was actually a member of the Mingwei Iron Cavalry.
After Shitou's father passed away, he took over his father's service and joined the Mingwei Iron Cavalry. The reason he was guarding the gate of the Duke's Mansion was actually to wait for her...
"The Mingwei Iron Cavalry has never stopped training in recent years. Now that a large force has arrived, defeating those black-armored guards is a piece of cake, but..."
Shen Nanxing frowned. "If the Emperor of Beiyue knew that it was the Mingwei Iron Cavalry who saved us, this matter would not end well. But as long as the Black Armored Guards don't leave any survivors, the Emperor of Beiyue won't know..."
Fu Jiuli paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "All Phoenix Guards, listen up! Return to the rescue immediately!"
Shen Nanxing was stunned: "Return for help?"
Fu Jiuli's face was solemn: "There won't be a large army."
Shen Ming added: "If it is really a large force of Mingwei cavalry, it is impossible for them to leave the border without alerting the imperial court. The Emperor of Beiyue will never allow such a thing to happen..."
Shen Nanxing stood there in a daze, his dark eyes faintly red. "You mean... there's no so-called large army, and they only have a few hundred people?"
"Impossible!" Shen Nanxing shook his head. "If there were only so few of them, how could the Black Armor Guards not have caught up with us by now?"
Shen Ming patted her shoulder, his eyes revealing a complex expression: "Go and see for yourself."
So the group simply bandaged their wounds and rushed back the way they came, taking the 3,000 Phoenix Guards who were originally stationed in Xining.
After they had traveled halfway, the bodies of the black-armored guards and men in black began to appear on the road.
Shen Nanxing's face was pale and he stumbled as he pulled off the black veils of the men in black one by one.
As soon as the veil was pulled open, Shen Nanxing suddenly opened her eyes wide and tears immediately flowed out, falling one by one and covering her face.
What a face this is!
There was no skin on his face, only pink, hideous flesh squeezed together like dough. If it weren't for the neck underneath, it wouldn't even be recognizable as a human face.
Unrecognizable.
He pulled off the veils of more than ten men in black one after another, and everyone did the same.
It was obviously done intentionally!
Shen Ming's eyes also turned red, and he wiped away his tears with his hands: "They are determined to die, but they don't want to bring trouble to their families, so they destroy their own faces..."
Shen Nanxing hugged the head of a man in black and cried loudly.
Fu Jiuli's voice rang out from a distance: "Nanxing, there's a survivor here."
Shen Nanxing rolled and crawled over, only to see a man in black who was also unrecognizable with his eyes half open. He looked at Shen Nanxing, then at the many soldiers following behind them, and forced out an ugly smile.
He gasped with difficulty: "No, it's okay... just... okay..."
Shen Nanxing recognized his identity the moment he uttered the first word. She looked at him with red eyes, hugged his head, and let the tears flow freely down her face:
"Didn't you say that you were the vanguard and the main force would follow?"
"Why are there only a few of you? Why are you doing this?"
Shitou panted, "You are...you are the...master...of Ming...Mingwei...Iron...Cavalry. You should...save..."
Shen Nanxing wiped away her tears fiercely: "The Mingwei Iron Cavalry is here to protect the country, not their masters! Are you stupid?"
Shitou laughed: "The large... army... didn't come, so it doesn't count as... treason..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shitou's head tilted and he lay on Shen Nanxing's arms, dying with a smile on his face.
