A red apricot is about to cheat on you

Chapter 154 Go and ask for help

"Who's going?" Gu Yizhou raised his eyebrows slightly and slowly swept his eyes over everyone's faces. His questioning tone clearly asked who had the courage and wisdom to impersonate the Regent.

Several warriors of the suicide squad looked at each other, with hesitation and fear in their eyes.

Although they were fearless and brave, they were hesitant about such a mission that required careful planning and was of great importance, and no one dared to take it up.

At this moment, Jiang Lin strode forward and said firmly, "I'll go." His voice was like a loud bell, revealing an unquestionable firmness.

His sharp eyes are like cold stars.

Seeing how decisive he was, Yi Duoer couldn't help but feel moved.

She knew very well that this trip was full of risks and was no joke. Seeing that Jiang Lin was not joking, she slowly took out the token given to her by Chu Jingchen from her arms.

The token shimmered faintly in the sunlight. Yi Duoer moved lightly and handed the token to Jiang Lin, saying solemnly, "Take it. This may be useful at a critical moment."

Everyone's eyes were focused on the token. After seeing the words on the token clearly, they all looked surprised, as if they had seen a rare treasure.

When Jiang Lin received the token, he was stunned for a moment. He knew that the token represented extraordinary significance, equivalent to Chu Jingchen's personal presence. He didn't expect Chu Jingchen to even give her a personal token.

Gu Yizhou's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. He hurriedly took the token and looked at it carefully, his fingers gently stroking the lines on the token.

After a long pause, he confirmed that this was not a fake token. He then raised his eyes, looking at Yi Duoer with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Sangsang, this token? Where did you get it from?"

Yi Duoer secretly regretted it in her heart. If she had known earlier, she would have secretly handed it to Jiang Lin.

But now seeing everyone's reactions, I'm glad that I didn't throw it away or pawn it, as it can now be used in this time of crisis.

She lowered her head slightly and said softly, "Sir, I found it in a back street in the capital." Her tone was as soft as water, but her eyes were extremely indifferent, as if she was just telling an ordinary little thing, trying not to arouse suspicion.

How could Gu Yizhou easily believe such a statement? Seeing that Yi Duoer was unwilling to reveal the truth, he did not force her to ask. Although everyone had doubts in their hearts, they all understood each other tacitly and kept silent.

Yi Duoer knew clearly that the distance between the well and the outer river was quite far, and going there would be a life-threatening situation.

This is why she carefully selected many people with excellent swimming skills to form the suicide squad.

They did not dare to delay for a moment and rushed towards the well at Sister Fang's house.

Gu Yizhou looked at their backs and promised loudly:

"I will reward your people with a thousand gold coins and a hundred acres of fertile land. If you come back alive, I will promote you to higher positions." When everyone heard this, a surge of heroic ambition surged in their hearts.

In their hearts, making sacrifices to protect their homeland is the highest honor, and now there is such a generous reward, which makes their blood boil.

As one figure after another sank into the well, they disappeared in an instant like dragons entering the water.

Yi Duoer stood at the mouth of the well, looking at the deep well water, feeling secretly emotional.

Praying silently, hoping that they would all return safely. The people of Jiangzhou also gathered, and they all performed local prayer gestures, chanting words, praying for the warriors to return safely.

In the second half of the night, the enemy suddenly retreated for unknown reasons. The soldiers in the city were full of doubts. They thought that their heroic resistance had frightened the enemy and forced them to flee.

How could they know that the enemy was secretly planning a more sinister plan.

After leaving sentinels, the soldiers went down to rest, recuperate, and prepare for the next battle.

Xie Xingchen dragged his tired body and slowly walked down the city wall.

His steps were heavy, as if he had exhausted all his strength in every step. His face was filled with fatigue, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He first came to where Yi Duo'er was and saw her curled up on the ground, soundly asleep. There were many other people lying around in silence.

Xie Xingchen quietly found a quilt, carefully spread it beside Yi Duoer, and then slowly lay down.

He turned slightly to the side, his eyes falling on Yi Duo'er's stunning face. Although her face looked a little haggard, in Xie Xingchen's eyes, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.

A hint of sweetness and satisfaction rose in his heart, and the corners of his lips unconsciously rose. He thought to himself, at this moment, he was really sleeping in the same bed with her.

Even just being together quietly like this made him feel extremely at ease.

Perhaps because he was too tired, or perhaps because Yi Duoer was beside him, he soon fell into a deep sleep. This sleep was particularly sweet, as if all his fatigue and worries disappeared at this moment.

The next morning, before the sunlight had fully penetrated the clouds, the enemy's sharp arrows rained down.

The arrows were stained with filth, and the tips were smeared with the blood of those who had suffered the plague. It was so dense that it seemed like a dark cloud looming over them. The soldiers were caught off guard and were nauseated by the stench.
