The River Flows East to the Whistle

Chapter 34 Prelude

"Ksitigarbha, Ksitigarbha, listen." Jiang Liu gasped messily, looking directly into Ksitigarbha's eyes, "When you come back, I will marry you."

Ksitigarbha was startled numb by the sudden kiss, opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at Jiang Liu.

"Did you hear that? I don't want anyone but you. You have to come back and I'm waiting for you! I want to live with you!" Jiang Liu said loudly with a trembling voice, causing everyone in the yard to panic. I can hear you clearly.

"Remember? Answer me!"

For just a moment, extreme sadness flashed across Jizo's eyes, and then Jiang Liu's body tightened, and Jizo's powerful arms tightly bound him in his arms.

"Thank you, thank you." Ji hid in Jiang Liu's ear, and said in a voice so soft that it was almost inaudible. The strong sentinel pheromone enveloped Jiang Liu's world, even if it was only for a moment, Jiang Liu immersed himself in the perfect belonging middle.

When Jiang Liu reacted, his feet had landed on the ground again.

"Let's go." Peng Yuanzheng's voice.

Dizang let go of Jiang Liu and turned to leave. Jiang Liu was cruel and forced himself to stay where he was.

"Guide Jiangliu, don't worry, we will let Hades come back to you intact." The sentinel whose spirit body was a pony walked past Jiangliu and said to Jiangliu with a smile.

Jiang Liu didn't know what to say, when Li Xuan walked past him.

"Li Xuan! Li Xuan, are you going too?"

Li Xuan turned around and gave Jiang Liu a pale smile. "If there is no guide on the front line, the enemy will be suspicious. What's more, at this time, I want to be with the expedition."

"Let's go." Peng Yuanzheng took the backpack from Li Xuan's shoulders and supported Li Xuan's waist.

Are you all gone?

Jiang Liu watched the soldiers say goodbye to him one by one.

Ding Shiyang came over and stood beside Jiang Liu.

Dizang suddenly turned his head and said, "I remember."

Ding Shiyang didn't speak, but pursed his lips tightly.

The last ray of orange sky light was extinguished in the west, and the backs of the sentries disappeared silently into the darkness ahead.

Jiang Liu covered his face with his hands and cried silently.

At this moment, Jiang Liu didn't even notice, and Ksitigarbha didn't answer him.

The footsteps of the sentinels faded away, blending into the dark night.

A gust of cold night wind blew, causing Jiang Liu to shiver and suddenly woke up from his trance.

"Shi Yang?" Jiang Liu raised his eyes and saw the back standing in front of him, and called softly.

The back seemed to have lost its soul, motionless.

Jiang Liu felt intensely uneasy for a moment, and he only realized at this time, how much his actions to Ji Zang had hurt Ding Shiyang, "cruel", he remembered the words of the spiritual body again.

He stared at Ding Shiyang's back for a moment, gritted his teeth, and raised his voice with a firm tone: "Ding Shiyang!"

Ding Shiyang was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head abruptly, with a panic that was too late to hide on his face.

"Let's go around and check if it's safe. Your eyesight is better than mine. Come with me."

Ding Shiyang quickly calmed down and nodded in agreement.

Jiang Liu felt sad for a while, for this elegant and strong sentinel, he couldn't repay his attachment no matter what.After the war is over, we must find an excellent partner for Ding Shiyang. Jiang Liu closed his eyes and made up his mind in his heart. He hoped that Ding Shiyang would be happy, and everyone would be.

In the dim light, Jiang Liu put a few wild fruits in his hand on the ground of the outpost. "It's lucky that there are fruit trees behind. We won't have to worry about food these two days."

Jiang Liu's forced optimism was exchanged for Ding Shiyang's smile. Shi Yang sat down and put a few guns in his hand on the ground.

It seemed that, as Jiang Liu said, they were lucky. This abandoned outpost was surrounded by dense forests and had good concealment.There is even an abandoned arsenal in the backyard of the outpost, which contains a lot of guns and ammunition that were too late to take away when retreating, which is enough for self-protection. It can be said that it is difficult to find a better hiding spot than here.

"You should eat more." Ding Shiyang, who was fiddling with guns, saw Jiang Liu push most of the fruits in front of him.

"It's okay, I can adjust your taste, it won't be too bad."

Ding Shiyang smiled, put down the gun, and pushed the fruit back to Jiang Liu, "I still have sentry food, it doesn't matter. You eat more, and your work will be very exhausting after you finish eating. Stand by the door."

The familiar tenderness made Jiang Liu's heart sour again, and some words blurted out. "Shi Yang, you were willing to come out with me at that time, do you regret it?"

Ding Shiyang's hand stopped for a moment, and Jiang Liu felt his emotions, rising like a tide.

Suddenly, Ding Shiyang suddenly turned his head and looked into the distance. "Why, so fast?"

Before Jiang Liu could react, he felt a tightness in his chest, and more than a dozen mental threads suddenly became tighter. Jiang Liu clutched his chest, realizing in panic that the front line is starting a war!

More than a dozen shallow links were like suction pumps, pulling away the mental power at high speed, Jiang Liu felt his eyes go dark, and fell to the ground clutching his chest.

How could this be, how could this be?The exhaustion of mental power caused Jiang Liu's injured left eye to hurt like a knife. A dozen of links were mixed together like a mess, and more than ten times of fear and panic were clearly transmitted along the links. Jiang Liu could hardly even breathe. Lost, he could only lie on the ground and make a suffocating guttural sound.

Can't, can't collapse, Jiang Liu shouted silently, sticking to his spiritual realm.

The soldiers on the front lines needed him, and the people he loved needed him.

Jiang Liu struggled to raise his head, and saw Ding Shiyang beside him, staring at him.

On Ding Shiyang's face, there was panic and hesitation that could not be concealed.

Why does he have such an expression?

Jiang Liu didn't know that at this moment, under the burst of mental power, the guiding elements were spreading like steam.

"Shi Yang... help me... Shi Yang..." Jiang Liu, who was confused, murmured for help.

He saw Ding Shiyang's face turned iron, bit his lip, and rushed over to hug him in his arms.

In an instant, the warm spiritual realm surrounded Jiang Liu's body and mind, and the chaotic world woke up like a fog dissipating.

"Jiang Liu! Concentrate!"

Ding Shiyang's forbearing voice rang in Jiang Liu's ears.

In an instant, another emotion was clearly displayed in front of Jiang Liu along the spiritual thread.

Persist, no matter what, we must persist until the last moment of life.

The voices that seemed to be shouting neatly came from the soldiers on the front line.

With tears in his eyes, Jiang Liu pulled up the five senses of the soldiers.

Go ahead.

Jiang Liu seemed to be able to hear the sound of the blade sweeping through the air, and feel the warmth of blood splashing on his skin.

Suddenly a tenacious connection tugged at Jiang Liu's heartstrings. It was him, his own, dark sentinel.

Jiang Liu closed his eyes and poured all his spiritual power into them.

Dizang, please survive, please come back alive to find me!

……

The sky was dim, Jiang Liu collapsed on the ground, the distance became quiet, and the morning breeze brought a faint smell of gunpowder smoke and blood.

"It seems that this round of attack has been resisted." Ding Shiyang stood up wearily, picked up the limp Jiang Liu, and carefully put it into the sleeping bag. "You take a break, I'll go out and get you some water."

Hearing the sound of Ding Shiyang going out, Jiang Liu struggled to raise his head and reached out to touch his backpack.

It was very hot. Contrary to his tired body, Jiang Liu felt a trace of hotness in his heart.

It's the fusion fever, the weak fusion fever is brewing, the overdraft of mental power will reduce the resistance of the mental barrier, and the spiritual field of him and Ding Shiyang has been fused for too long, the pheromone of the sentinel will accelerate the brewing of the fusion fever, let alone him and Ding Shiyang. There is a certain degree of compatibility between Ding Shiyang.

What must be done now is to increase the dosage of anti-conjugate fever drugs.

Jiang Liu opened the backpack and reached into the medicine compartment at the bottom of the backpack.

In an instant, Jiang Liu's whole body was icy cold, and his eyes widened due to the sudden surprise.

The medicine compartment is empty.

His anti-binding fever medicine was taken away!

Jiang Liu was stunned. He sat up, poured out all the things in the backpack, and searched frantically.

Still, nothing.

Without anti-conjunctive fever medicine, Jiang Liu's heart was filled with cold fear.

He will develop a combination fever, and a large amount of mental power overdraft will reduce the defense of the mental field. Moreover, there is a very high compatibility between him and Ding Shiyang.

"Jiang Liu, what's wrong with you?" Ding Shiyang opened the door with a bucket in his hand, and was taken aback when he saw Jiang Liu.

"Get out!!" Jiang Liu instinctively roared.

Without hesitation, Ding Shiyang dropped the bucket and retreated to close the door.

Jiang Liu realized his gaffe, and quickly said, "I'm sorry, Shi Yang, I'm a little..."

"It's okay." Ding Shiyang's polite voice came from outside the door.

"Can... help me fetch another bucket of water?" Jiang Liu felt guilty, but still hoped to dismiss the sentry around him.

"Okay." Ding Shiyang had no objection.

It was quiet outside the door, Jiang Liu couldn't wait to take off his shirt, and put his two big arms into the bucket.The water freshly drawn from the well was icy cold, making Jiang Liu's teeth chatter.But Jiang Liu didn't hesitate, and lowered his head to bury his face and head in the water.

He had to cool down, he couldn't have a fever, and once he had an outbreak of combined fever, Ding Shiyang, who was a sentinel, couldn't control it.Li Xuan said that once he combines with himself, all the superficial connections with the front line will be broken, not to mention, there is also Ksitigarbha...

Jiang Liu picked up the bucket of cold water and poured it over his head.

What Jiang Liu didn't know was that Ding Shiyang didn't leave outside the door at this time. He listened to the sound of water in the house, and took out two injections from his close-fitting pocket with trembling hands.

The inferior inhibitor sent by the Datang government to the frontline fighters.

Ding Shiyang rolled up his sleeves, pierced the needle point into his arm, closed his eyes, and pushed the deadly injection into the vein.

After a while, Ding Shiyang, who stopped trembling, let out a long sigh of relief, opened his eyes, and looked at the twilight sky above his head.

How much longer can we last?

Hongyin, how long will it take for you to come here?We still have hope.
