Chapter 241 Nightmare

The wind in Yanliangguan has its own sound.

For thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of loyal people have been buried here, and the wind is full of regrets that cannot be blown away.

Shen Yu walked on the vast loess, with the towering city wall behind her. The clouds were so low that it was hard to breathe.

She knew she was dreaming.

rustle——rustle——

The sound of footsteps gradually turned into the grunt of mud.

Shen Yu looked down and saw that the loess was soaked in blood and gradually felt a little soft when stepped on.

"Dad." Shen Yu calmly called to the people on the slope.

Shen Zhongan turned around and said, "Come on, come up."

Shen Yu stepped on the blood-soaked yellow sand and walked up. As soon as she stood up, the sight in front of her took her breath away.

Even though she had seen the same scene countless times in and out of her dreams, she still couldn't feel calm about what she saw.

She desperately wanted to find a hug that could take her away from the nightmare.

But as soon as he turned his head, Shen Zhongan also disappeared in the wind.

"father--!"

Shen Yu shouted, searching for Shen Zhongan's body among the endless corpses.

"Auntie...Auntie..."

A faint call came from under the mountain of corpses.

Shen Yu rolled over and crawled to the ground, moving the corpses away with her bare hands.

She turned the page desperately. The voice was getting closer and closer, but it became less and less like Shen Zhongan's voice.

She didn't notice it, and gradually felt excited as she got closer and closer to the sound. She was almost there, she was about to find it.

The last body moved away, and she saw the face lying underneath.

It was her own face, with wide eyes and a weird smile on her face.

Shen Yu instantly fell down and sat down.

Suddenly, everything around him changed. Cold water quickly emerged from the ground, and the surrounding vastness turned into pavilions.

The water was up to her nose, and Shen Yu struggled and fluttered in the water, trying to catch something.

She grabbed a warm hand in the cold lake water. When hope came, the owner of the hand turned around and coldly broke away from her hand.

Shen Yu suddenly sat up from the bed, panting and covering her face with her hands.

She had a dream on the first day she came to Yanliang Pass. She had not had such a strange and terrifying dream for a long time, and she felt death again.

Xie Tingzhou's warmth was like a mountain, suppressing her nightmare.

Even if she inevitably falls into dreaming again, he can quickly pull her back.

The palms of my hands were soaked, I don't know whether it was tears or cold sweat.

Shen Yu took out the big cloak that no longer carried any Xie Tingzhou aura and wrapped it around her body, then pulled the quilt over it, and then fell asleep with her eyes open.

After hearing this, Changliu calmed down in the tent, returned to the tent next door, and took out paper and pen from his bag.

Si Xi was woken up a long time ago and asked him: "The princess had a nightmare, why didn't you wake her up? What's the point of standing outside the tent and listening?"

Changliu ignored him and took notes carefully under the lamp.

"What are you doing writing in the middle of the night?"

"You don't understand. This is what the prince told me before departure. The princess didn't sleep well at night and had nightmares. She must write it down." Changliu said as he wrote.

There was a problem here, but Sixi didn't dare to ask. It was beyond his control.

The master was very generous to him. He worked with Shen Yu, and the whole family was properly accommodated.

The longer he followed him, the more he understood the truth: don't worry about things you shouldn't.

Sixi pulled up the quilt, turned over, and fell asleep facing the wall.

…

At dawn the next day, Cao Guangjin's men arrived.

Xiao Chuan sat in the tent with a golden sword, "What does the surname Cao mean? He invited us into the city and he didn't come by himself."

Shen Yu took the post and said, "The enemy has already hit me on the head, but he still has time to play with my little trick."

At the same time, Cao Guangjin was pacing back and forth in the room.

"This Shen Yu talks half-heartedly. She only talks about digging trenches but doesn't say how to dig them and how wide they should be."

"Sir," the person below asked, "Are you still digging?"

"Dig!" Cao Guangjin stopped, "dig first, let the scouts out and watch. If there is an enemy attack, send people back quickly. Why can't you invite this person?"

"I'm afraid it would be easier if you invite me in person. After all, she is Princess Beilin."

"What do you know?" Cao Guangjin scolded: "I finally found out yesterday that although she is a woman, it is difficult to handle."

Shen Yu in the tent on the other side said: "If he comes to invite me by himself, it seems too urgent. If he wants anything from me, he can only let me make conditions. That's what I meant when I asked him to dig a trench yesterday."

Xiao Chuan said: "Then shall we go?"

"Go." Shen Yu threw the post on the table casually, "But we can't go so early. We have to wear him down first. The reason for standing still now is to make the deployment of troops smoother in the future. No matter how anxious we are, we have to wait. This If he is careless and a fight breaks out, will the garrison listen to him or me? "

Xiao Chuan nodded, "We are anxious, he must be more anxious than us."

Shen Yu turned her head and said, "Give me the order to assemble the troops at noon and set off for Ganzhou City at noon."

"No wait?" Xiao Chuan was dumbfounded, "Didn't you just say you weren't in a hurry?"

"Don't worry." Shen Yu said, "He probably won't be able to wait until noon."

Shen Yu had a good idea. She was anxious, but Cao Guangjin was even more anxious than him, so he immediately came to invite someone in person.

Whoever bows his head first when asking for something from others is tantamount to handing over the initiative.

Ten thousand troops entered the city, and without Shen Yu's arrangement, they went about their business separately.

The trenches were dug and the armaments were prepared in an orderly manner.

Cao Guangjin was watching from the city wall. It was obvious that Shen Yu had already made plans and was waiting for him to bow his head.

Last night she said that she didn't care about military power, she wanted him to beg her to lead the army.

He lost in this round of people's hearts. No matter whether he was convinced or not, he had to bow his head at this time.

If he wanted to play tricks again, he had to consider whether he had the ability to fight.

Just when Yanliang Pass was busy preparing for the battle, several horses on the official road rushed to Ganzhou Prefecture in Yanliang Pass with an imperial edict.
