Chapter 2
I do not know how to fully unleash the skills that this body possesses. Chu Si once again allowed his thoughts to enter that blank state.
Chu Si is now completely dumbfounded, she heard very clearly, extremely clearly, that the general is named Murong Ke! Furthermore, he referred to the Han people as two-legged sheep!
Knock knock knock
It is unclear how much time has passed when a thunderous shout resounds: "Hah—"
Uncertain how much time had passed, when she finally felt that familiar aura flowing around her again, a sharp voice called out: "Alright, General!"
With her limited knowledge of history, she is aware that during the period of the Five Barbarians' chaos in the Jin Dynasty, there were several remarkable figures in the Former Yan, among whom the most famous is the extraordinary Wang Murong Ke of Taiyuan, the undefeated god of war!
Murong Ke's distinctive, resonant and steady footsteps echoed from outside. Chu Si was still pondering how to deal with this military god of the Yan Kingdom in order to gain her freedom when the door creaked open once again. Immediately, a chilling wind swept through the wooden cabin.
Upon hearing Chu Si speak, Murong Ke paused in his actions, broke into a wide grin that revealed a brilliant white smile, and softly said: "Indeed, this time we have dealt a great defeat to the Han army, shaking the world with our might. It is time for us to return and take a good rest." Although his voice was calm, it betrayed a hint of concealed pride, much like a child showing off to someone closest to him.
Kill
The sound crashed into Chu Si's eardrum like a thunderclap. A startled cry escaped her lips, and as she opened her mouth, a mouthful of fresh blood spurted onto the ground.
Lowering his head, Murong Ke placed a kiss on Chu Si's forehead and murmured, "Si'er, after returning to the capital this time, I will marry you without delay. Si'er, this world is indeed like this; the strong are the kings. Those Han people are as weak as sheep, so what is there to sympathize with? Those subordinates who killed your friends have already been dealt with in secret by me, so why must you dwell on the past?"
Such a tone, spoken from the mouth of a man, made Chu Si's heart soften unexpectedly. At the moment of speaking, Murong Ke had already untied the ropes connecting Chu Si's hands to the headboard. However, at this time, Chu Si's hands were still tightly bound together above her head.
In just a moment, a subtle excitement surged into my heart: the war, the legendary war! My goodness, here I am, both a prisoner and amidst a war in this time travel; it seems quite thrilling!
Huh
As he approached the head of the bed, he slowly began to untie the ropes: "Si'er, do you really not want to say anything to me?"
She opened her small mouth and stared blankly at the tassels in front of the bed! The handsome man who had just taken her breath away was Murong Ke? The man who looked at her with affectionate eyes was the God of War of the Yan Kingdom?
Fearing being disturbed again, she quickly regained consciousness this time
Murong Ke
Kill
Murong Ke's face, which was as perfect as a statue, immediately lost its murderous aura and seriousness upon seeing Chu Si, replaced instead by a gentle and smiling expression
Murong Ke was clearly in high spirits, his extraordinarily handsome face radiating brilliance, which made the humble wooden cabin appear bright and grand. Striding over to Chu Si's feet, Murong Ke untied the ropes while laughing, "Si'er, as a young lady, it is not appropriate for you to be shouting about fighting and killing all day. After you marry me this time, you must settle down and be a proper wife, bearing and raising children with me"
Her excitement has another important reason, which is the fact that she knows martial arts. In short, like a fleeting thought in a dream, Chu Si is extremely curious about this novel world.
Unaware of his whereabouts, unable to move, Chu Si simply closed her eyes and began to speculate about her situation. After a while, her consciousness gradually faded into blankness
As the sound ceased, a synchronized and hurried sound of footsteps approached, each step resonating with such intensity and a menacing aura that it seemed as if every footfall shook the very earth beneath them
The roar of anger surged like a tide. Upon hearing the roar composed of thousands of voices, Chu Si's small face instantly turned pale: Could it be that this is still on the battlefield?
Huh——
As she wandered in her thoughts, the previously surging breath gradually calmed down, until everything returned to its original state. Although it was calm, Chu Si still faintly felt that the spurt of fresh blood had caused her some form of harm
Outside, a sudden burst of intense drumming resounded, accompanied by countless torches that ignited in an instant. The flames illuminated the surroundings, making everything bright as day.
Chu Suxun pondered for a moment and finally asked in a hushed voice, "Are you going back to your capital?" The moment these words left her lips, she was taken aback herself; the sound was truly, truly like a mountain spring flowing, like a yellow oriole singing lightly, indescribably beautiful and melodious. Listening to herself, she felt an impulse to want to hear it forever.
The outside is brightly lit, and the sounds of people are bustling. Amidst the beating of war drums, a loud voice comes from afar: "Sons of Dayan, your iron cavalry is everywhere, and those strong Han people have become mere sheep! Wherever your long swords reach, they tremble day and night. Sons of Dayan, we have achieved one great victory after another. Today, your general, I, Murong Ke, will lead you back to our homeland to proclaim our achievements to all! Sons of Dayan, we have achieved one great victory after another. Today, your general, I, Murong Ke, will lead you back to our homeland to proclaim our achievements to all! Enjoy the fruits of our labor!"
Huh
Lying powerless on the bed, motionless, Chu Si only felt a burning heat in her chest and abdomen, her mind was extremely dizzy, and an unnamed cramping pain coursed through her entire limbs and veins
Closing her eyes, Chu Si commanded herself to calm down. However, with the continuous sound of orderly and hurried footsteps outside, how could her heart possibly find peace?
It turns out this place is still a battlefield, and they are about to retreat to the State of Yan. From what Murong Ke implied, he also wants to take her along. Upon thinking of this, Chu Si struggled a bit, but the ropes binding her remained completely still
He strode up to Chu Si, extended his right hand to caress her face, and upon seeing her open her eyes to look at him, he smiled faintly and said softly: "Si'er, we must set off tonight."
Chu Si was eager to find a mirror to take a closer look at her appearance. After her eyes scanned the empty and simple wooden cabin, she found nothing.
Suddenly, a strange aura surged from her chest, quickly enveloping her entire body. In astonishment, Chu Si widened her eyes. At the very moment her eyes opened wide, the aura came to an abrupt halt
A surge of indescribable surprise welled up in Chu Si's heart, and she thought to herself: Indeed, if this body had once attempted to assassinate this handsome general, then it must possess internal strength. Perhaps that skill is not to be underestimated either
The earth-shattering roar erupted once more, the sound overwhelming and pervasive, like claps of thunder, bombarding heavily! Suddenly, those sounds came to an abrupt halt, and the world returned to silence, a kind of eerie silence.
This call stirred Chu Si's heart and mind. Indeed, it seems that if I want to regain my internal power, I must choose a quiet time without external influences.
Kill
He hurriedly closed his eyes, exerting all his strength to return to the state of emptiness he had just experienced. Finally, as that breath reappeared, the pain in his body gradually began to subside
Kill
I possess internal strength Yes, I possess internal strength
Before long, a warm and faint sensation surged from the lower abdomen. Chu Si curiously focused her energy on that warm current, feeling it swiftly flow through her body one by one
Murong Ke's voice rose again: "All troops, prepare to retreat!"
Huh
At this point, he suddenly smiled, lowered his head, and placed a kiss on Chu Siguan's bare ankle, raising an eyebrow mischievously as he said: "Last time our good fortune was interrupted by someone, this time, I must thoroughly savor the taste of Si'er, allowing Si'er to experience what the joy of paradise is!"
What kind of person have I actually become after traveling through time?
