It was inevitable for Tian Yang and the others to flee back to Hanzhong, even with Zhang He, the reinforcement from Jieting. After all, the princess on the other side had been inexplicably held hostage, which more or less affected the pursuit of the other side.
Then, where were Cao Ling and Dongfang Fengfu, who had already left the battlefield?
At this moment, the two of them were standing on a mountain. This should be the border of Cao Wei's territory, very close to Hanzhong.
Seeing Dongfang Fengfu remain silent, Cao Ling seemed to be unable to stand the atmosphere. She looked at Dongfang Fengfu and asked," Why aren't you saying anything? Do you feel so guilty about kidnapping me? Where did the courage of the army to charge at me go?”
"I'm sorry that I had to do this to protect my brother and the Prime Minister. I must apologize to you now.”If the other party was a man, Dongfang Fengfu wouldn't have apologized to him. However, the other party was a woman, and he had actually done something so ungentlemanly as to hold a woman hostage. This made Dongfang Fengfu feel a little guilty. Driven by this guilt, Dongfang Fengfu opened his mouth to apologize.
"In that case, you're quite a gentleman. Unfortunately, there was no point in doing so. My grandfather once said,"I would rather betray others than others betray me."”He had suffered countless betrayals in his life. If you value others so much, what should you do if you are betrayed?”
Cao Ling stared at Dongfang Fengfu as if she wanted to see through him.
"Even if I was betrayed, I would never lose my trust in others because of that. Besides, I believe that my brothers would never betray me, and I would never betray my brothers!”
To Dongfang Fengfu, the friendship between him and Black Light was far better than the friendship he had with them before he became a member of the Executor team. This was because they were comrades that he could trust with his life. It was only when he faced life and death situations that it was clear who was the most trustworthy person.
"How naive of you to choose to believe it because of such a simple reason? Mother believed that heartless father and ended up committing suicide. My brother and I grew up in fear, living every day without knowing if there would be a tomorrow. With tears in our eyes, we grovel to our enemies, just to see the light of day again. If we had been as stupid as Mother, we wouldn't have lived to this day.”
Towards the end, Cao Ling's emotions fluctuated slightly, and the surrounding air flow became somewhat chaotic due to her emotions. Seeing this scene, Dongfang Fengfu could not help but frown.
"It seems that you're not living a good life as a princess. That was true. It might not be a good thing to be born into an imperial family.”Dongfang Fengfu looked at Cao Ling." You must miss your mother."”
"Why would you think that?" Hearing Dongfang Fengfu's words, Cao Ling couldn't help but ask.
" Because when your mother is mentioned, your eyes will unconsciously soften. I have had this kind of gaze before, and so have my friends." Dongfang Fengfu's eyes dimmed.
Everyone who participated in the Executor team had their own families in their original worlds. Everyone had their own parents. After leaving their parents, they would naturally miss them very much, especially those who struggled on the edge of life and death. When they fought with the Heroic Spirits of Heroic Spirit Palace, whenever they were about to lose, their parents 'faces would unconsciously appear in their minds, and their bodies would unconsciously be filled with strength.
"You're really an incredible person. You know so much about other people's affairs. But I'm very curious. If you and your friends miss your parents, why did you leave home?”Cao Ling said," Isn't your home in Ji City?”
"Who said we are from Tianshui Ji City?”Facing Cao Ling's question, Dongfang Fengfu merely smiled.
Cao Ling was slightly taken aback. Then, an inexplicable color flashed across her eyes. It seemed that this group of people was also very mysterious.
"How about coming to Great Wei? Go and tell your friends. I guarantee that with your talents, you will have the opportunity to climb to the position of General of the Four Towns.”
Cao Ling felt that Dongfang Fengfu and his group were not ordinary people. She immediately decided to recruit them. Although she didn't think they would succeed, it was better than nothing.
"I rejected you on behalf of Tianyang." Dongfang Fengfu replied indifferently," That guy would never have the thought of betraying the Prime Minister. In his words,'Since he has received the Prime Minister's kindness, how could he betray the Prime Minister?'”
"As for me, that's impossible. Because wherever Tianyang is, I'll be there. It's that simple.”
" I see." Cao Ling wasn't surprised at all when she heard Dongfang Fengfu's words. Instead, she showed a hint of envy and said," Then I won't force you." Actually, I really envy people like you who are so innocent and don't have to think about other things. In the past, his grandfather had killed many people who wanted to leave him, but he respected Guan Yu very much. He told me that he envied Guan Yu, but I didn't understand what he meant at the time. Now that I've talked to you, I finally understand what's going on. But unlike my grandfather, I think birds are beautiful when they fly outside.”
As she spoke, Cao Ling revealed a rare smile to Dongfang Fengfu.
Seeing this smile, Dongfang Fengfu felt a hint of emotion in his heart. He thought to himself," This woman actually yearned for a free life. It's a pity that she was born into the Cao Clan. Although her memories are a little blurry, she still vaguely knows that Sima Yi will become a powerful official of Cao Wei. Then this princess will probably become a member of the Cao Clan and fight against the Sima Clan to the end. However, in the end, she's just a woman. It's really pitiful."”
"How dare you, Shu people! How dare you offend the princess's golden body!"
At this moment, Fei Yao rushed over and shouted at Dongfang Fengfu.
"Let him go!" Just as Fei Yao was about to take Dongfang Fengfu down, Cao Ling ordered.
"But this guy is a general of Shu." Fei Yao hesitated.
"Capturing such a lowly general will not benefit Great Wei. So let him go, okay?" As she finished speaking, Cao Ling's lips curled into a smile. It was different from the smile she had shown before. Just a glance at this smile was enough to send chills down one's spine.
" Yes." Seeing this smile, Fei Yao subconsciously lowered his head and thought," That smile really makes my heart turn cold. It's said that Emperor Wu often smiled like this when he was about to kill someone."”
"I owe you a favor, and I will return it to you in the future.”Dongfang Fengfu turned around and glanced at Cao Ling.
"We'll talk about it when you can do it." Cao Ling replied indifferently.
Faced with Cao Ling's words, Dongfang Fengfu's lips curled up slightly." As long as I want to, there's nothing I can't do. So, if it's possible, I still want to return this favor to you."”
Saying so, Dongfang Fengfu immediately walked towards Hanzhong. According to his speculation, if Tianyang and the others didn't see him, they wouldn't enter Hanzhong. He had to hurry back so that they wouldn't worry.
"He's still a guy who knows how to act cool, but he doesn't make people hate him.”
As she said this, the corners of Cao Ling's mouth curled up slightly. However, she seemed to have thought of something, and there was a hint of melancholy in her brows. She thought to herself,'I don't know when we'll meet again after today.' Would they be friends or enemies when they met again?”
Near Hanzhong, just as Dongfang Fengfu had said, everyone in the Chang Bai Army was waiting for him, including Yang Lan. However, it would be better if she wasn't here nagging.
"Hey! How long are you idiots going to stay here? Do you really believe that you can wait for Dongfang Fengfu like this?”Yang Lan said impatiently.
"Yang Lan, you can go back if you're impatient.”Hei Guang only said these words indifferently in response to Yang Lan's words. He did not seem to have any intention of getting angry.
However, just because Hei Guang wasn't angry didn't mean that the others weren't. Goufu couldn't take it anymore." Shut up! How can a heartless Hu like you understand our feelings? In order to save us, Feng Fu didn't even care about his life. What's the point of waiting here?”
"Xiao Ju, you can't say that. Miss Yang has been standing here with us for a long time. If she was such a heartless person, she would have left us behind and fled when she retreated from Hanzhong.”Liu Yin said something nice.
Just like what Liu Yin had said, Hei Guang had seen through Yang Lan's character, which was why he had allowed her to continue following him. Otherwise, even if Tian Yang agreed, Hei Guang would still think of ways to kill this hidden danger unknowingly.
Yang Lan was a good person, but her thinking was too realistic. This could be said to be both a strength and a weakness.
Now, she felt that Dongfang Fengfu had rushed into the enemy's main formation so impulsively that something must have happened. Instead of wasting time here, it was better to retreat to Hanzhong.
"I still don't believe you. There are far too many Hu who don't keep their promises.”Goufu snorted coldly.
After Liu Yin heard this, he secretly complained in his heart, Little Ju, aren't you also a Bandun Yi in the broad sense?”
"Actually, what I care about is Dongfang Fengfu's heroic act. The way he didn't care about his own life made him look like he was ready to commit suicide.”Yang Lan said helplessly.
"Indeed, that fellow is too adventurous!”Hei Guang immediately echoed.
The moment Black Light finished speaking, everyone looked at him, causing him to feel uneasy.
"Why are you looking at me like that? It's ridiculous.”
"Black Light." Tian Yang patted his shoulder helplessly." You're the least qualified to say that among all of us."”
"That's right." " Yes." Hong En nodded and said with certainty," Because when your adventuring thoughts come up, you're many times crazier than Feng Fu! In this aspect, even Boyue cannot compare to you!”
Jiang Wei was a little speechless for being shot for no reason, but he knew that he was also an adventurer.
At this moment, a black shadow flashed past and Zhang Li Jun suddenly appeared in front of Tian Yang.
"Fengfu is back!"
As soon as Zhang Lijun said this, everyone immediately looked ahead and saw Dongfang Fengfu's figure gradually appear in everyone's sight.
" You guys!" Seeing that everyone was waiting for him, Dongfang Fengfu couldn't help but feel touched even though he had expected this.
"Fengfu, you're being too polite. If you wanted to take risks, why didn't you come with us? If there were a few more of us, we might have already killed Cao Cao.”Liu Yin stepped forward and patted Dongfang Fengfu's shoulder as he smiled.
"I wasn't waiting for you. It's just that the generals are all standing here, so I can't enter Hanzhong alone.”
Ju Fu was a little insincere. He was worried about Dongfang Fengfu, but he didn't dare to say it.
"You, if you continue to play so big and make everyone worry, I won't let you go to the battlefield again!”
Although he knew that Dongfang Fengfu was very strong, Tian Yang couldn't help but worry about him.
Seeing how agitated Tianyang was, Dongfang Fengfu knew that he had gone too far this time. He immediately apologized," I'm sorry, Tianyang. I've made you worry this time. There won't be a next time!"”
"You still want a next time!"
"Ah, no! I said the wrong thing. From now on, I won't be so reckless.”
Dongfang Fengfu smiled faintly and promised Tian Yang.
"You said it. If you dare to lie to me, you know the consequences.”
Seeing that the other party wanted him to promise so much, Tian Yang's tone softened a little.
"Yes, sir!" Dongfang Fengfu still smiled faintly and softly made his promise.
Seeing this scene, Hei Guang and the others could not help but look at each other and smile.
After getting Dongfang Fengfu's promise, Tian Yang heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Yang Lan.
"Miss Yang, I'm really grateful to you this time. It was all thanks to your help that our entire army was able to escape this time. When we return to Hanzhong and pay you, I think you can regain your freedom.”
"Freedom? Did I say that the contract was terminated?”Yang Lan was slightly stunned and asked.
"Eh, you still don't plan to return to the Qiang Tribe?”Hei Guang looked at Yang Lan in surprise. Was this woman really planning to cling onto Chang Bai Jun?
"Yeah." Yang Lan had a fawning expression on her face as she secretly glanced at Hei Guang. At the same time, she asked Tian Yang," Have you considered extending the contract to forty years later?”
With Tian Yang's keen senses, he naturally saw through Yang Lan's intentions in an instant. At the same time, Tian Yang also found it quite funny. Ever since this woman had interacted with Hei Guang during the battle in the snowfield, she had actually clung onto Hei Guang directly. However, did Hei Guang really not notice her intentions? Or should he pretend not to notice?
Tian Yang secretly glanced at Hei Guang as he thought about this. Seeing his rather speechless expression, Tian Yang could conclude that Hei Guang had probably noticed Yang Lan's intentions towards him a long time ago. He was just pretending not to notice.
