Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Lu Yunfei's smile easily infected Chu Yueli.

After eating and drinking her fill, Chu Yueli stretched her muscles and bones, and her strength had indeed returned.

"Bei Mo, what's the situation outside? Why are you trapped in Wansui Valley?"

Once she got into the swing of things, she immediately had to deal with official business.

I didn't mention it earlier because I knew I was still too weak to go out for the time being.

“Sometimes, I wish you could fill your head with less stuff and more with me.” Lu Beimo stretched out his long finger and tapped the tip of her nose.

"Don't worry, you're in every corner of my heart." Otherwise, why would she have traveled all the way to Nanmeng to find him?

Lu Beimo's place in her heart became more and more important, so important that even she herself could hardly imagine it.

"When my elder brother broke into northern Sukru, I received the news and immediately came after him. But I found that he seemed to have become a different person, and his behavior was completely out of his control."

“He’s been bewitched,” Chu Yueli said immediately.

Lu Beimo nodded: "I guessed so, so I chased after him all the way here, knocked him unconscious, and had someone bring him back."

"And you risked your life to lure the Khitan soldiers away, leading them to this place?"

“I’m not familiar with Sukru. I didn’t come here on purpose. I only found out after I arrived that it’s a valley of death.”

Lu Beimo sighed, recalling the brothers who died in the quagmire on the day he came here, and his chest still felt somewhat heavy.

Although Chu Yueli didn't see it with her own eyes, she could almost feel his pain from his eyes.

She reached out and squeezed his large hand, saying softly, "No one could have imagined this place would be so dangerous, but at least you still have your brothers with you. We still have to find a way to leave."

Although she couldn't see what was happening outside, judging from the noise, there seemed to be quite a few brothers outside, at least several dozen.

In other words, quite a few of his brothers still crossed the barrier with him and entered Wansui Valley.

But presumably, many people also sacrificed their lives.

"When we first arrived, we didn't notice that more than a dozen of our brothers were trapped and couldn't be rescued."

Lu Beimo grasped her hand in return, his tone heavy: "Later we realized something was wrong with this place, but the exit was surrounded by the Khitan army, and we couldn't break out. In order to survive, we had no choice but to explore into Wansui Valley."

"How did you manage to find your way in?" Chu Yueli looked up at him.

Lu Beimo pursed his thin lips, clearly still not wanting to recall the past.

Chu Yueli found out.

This arduous journey to find our way in must have resulted in the sacrifice of many more brothers.

They were all bought with the lives of our brothers.

"So you don't dare to lead everyone away rashly until you're sure how you can get out safely, right?" Otherwise, if you go out, another group of brothers will have to be sacrificed.

He came with over a hundred men, but now he probably doesn't even have half of his brothers left.

They were all his good brothers who had followed him through thick and thin!

"There is indeed no foolproof plan for the time being. Moreover, we are surrounded by the Khitan army. Even if we can cross the muddy ground alive, we will not be able to break through the army's blockade."

So they could only continue searching for a way out from behind Bansei Valley.

But, more than a month has passed, and they still can't find a way out.

Chu Yueli squeezed his fingers and smiled, "Don't worry, now that I'm here, I'll definitely find a way to get everyone out of here!"
