When Zhang Tie opened his eyes, he found that Bai Suxian was still sleeping soundly on the bed.
After opening the quilt and taking a look at Bai Suxian's beautiful curves, Zhang Tie gently covered Bai Suxian with a thin quilt. After that, he got off the bed and walked to the front of the window with only one piece of clothing as he looked into the distance.
It was just daybreak outside the window of the airboat. It was cold outside while snowflakes were dancing in the air. After one night, the land under his feet had been covered with white snow.
At the sight of such a scene, poets might have poetic outbursts; however, at the sight of Weishui River which gradually slowed down and started to freeze, Zhang Tie frowned tightly. Zhang Tie knew that demons would launch another round of attack with the freezing of Weishui River after a couple of months' rest.
The freezing of Weishui River not only eliminated the advantage of Taixia Country's warships on the water but also enabled ground troops to directly rush to the east bank from the west bank without any tools.
As the cannon fodder and vanguard of this round of attack, hundreds of millions of Hua civilians would be covered with corpses over 600 miles on the west bank of Weishui River in the coming days.
There might be more in the future!
The incendiary mine that Zhang Tie invented was the hell of those Hua civilians.
Zuoqiu Mingyue regarded all this as a consumption of demons' war resources and war potential. As the inventor and initiator of Fiery Oil and various Fiery Oil weapons, when he saw that his invention was used to slaughter innocent commoners, he felt guilty in his heart …
Zhang Tie watched the land with a heavy look as he frowned. At the same time, a whim was rolling in his mind as he was struggling inside.
That whim had occurred to Zhang Tie since he was locked up in the No. 46 air cavalry regiment. At the beginning, Zhang Tie was not sure whether this method was feasible; however, after receiving the news that demons dispatched heavenly knights to assassinate him, Zhang Tie knew that it was feasible. He could save almost 200 million Hua civilians!
The idea was feasible. He could save the people, but he would have to pay a huge price. Not only would he have to expose his trump cards, but he might also have to risk his life.
It was not easy for anyone to make such a decision. Therefore, Zhang Tie was a bit hesitant. Zhang Tie didn't think about being a world-renowned sage; neither did he think about living a grand life. He only wanted to live a peaceful and comfortable life with his wife and kids. Facing dangers, he would hesitate, retreat and weigh the pros and cons. However, whenever Zhang Tie closed his eyes, he would see the miserable scene of numerous Hua commoners being driven into the minefield by demons, the helpless mother patting the flames on her kid and the old man kneeling down and wailing. As a result, Zhang Tie's blood started to surge uncontrollably.
On the one hand, he could continue to calmly and coldly watch everything continue to happen. His entire person was like a difference machine, accurately calculating all the advantages and disadvantages, and avoiding the disadvantages. Unless it was the most critical moment, he would not lightly take risks, and he would not expose his trump card.
On the other hand, he didn't have to calculate or weigh the pros and cons. He only wanted to live with a clear conscience. Even though there were tens of thousands of enemies, he would still go forward!
What should he do?
The coldness outside the window made the room as warm as spring. When Zhang Tie was watching the scenery outside the window, Bai Suxian in gauze skirt had already come to Zhang Tie's back. Closely after that, she hugged Zhang Tie tightly from behind as she buried her face in Zhang Tie's back.
"Something's bothering you …" Bai Suxian muttered.
As Zhang Tie's woman, Bai Suxian could sense Zhang Tie's mental state most.
Zhang Tie replied with a smile as he looked into the distance, "It's said that there's a flower called udumbara in the world. This flower would stay dormant for 3,000 years. When it meets someone who could sense it, it would blossom. Do you think it's worthwhile or not?"
"Some flowers blossom every year. If nobody appreciates them, they would wither away in the woods. Although they had blossomed thousands of times, they would still be lonely. By contrast, some flowers would blossom every 3,000 years. As long as they could correspond to one person, it would be worthwhile even if they could not blossom in the future …" Bai Suxian said as she hugged Zhang Tie tightly once again.
"Thanks, I see …" Zhang Tie let out a deep sigh as he finally made a decision. After that, he turned around and raised Bai Suxian's beautiful face, saying, "I will leave Xuanyuan Fortress for a period of time. You'd better not stay here during this period. You'd better go back to Iron-Dragon Sect first …"
Bai Suxian was the princess of Lord Guangnan's Mansion. After Bai Runcheng and the knights of Lord Guangnan's Mansion arrived at the theater of operations on behalf of Lord Guangnan's Mansion, Bai Suxian was actually a free person. Nobody could force Bai Suxian to stay in the theater of operations.
"You want me to go back?" Bai Suxian asked Zhang Tie out of amazement.
"I'm a guerrilla general. I'm free. After a period of time, I will go back. I will be reassured if you stay at home. Additionally, you're also a lady in the theater of operations. How could the knights of Lord Guangnan's Mansion and your uncle allow you to fight demons at the risk of your life? You'd better go back and help me look after home …" Zhang Tie replied with a casual smile.
"Where are you going then?"
Zhang Tie became serious as he patted Bai Suxian's * * *, saying, "Women shouldn't ask too much about a man's business …"
"I'm just concerned about you …" Bai Suxian liked Zhang Tie's trick most. Therefore, she could only hug Zhang Tie as she twisted her waist delightfully and coquettishly.
…
Half an hour later, Zhang Tie only bade a farewell to Feng Cangwu and the others through remote-sensing crystal before leaving Xuanyuan Fortress.
This time, Zhang Tie didn't even let Bai Suxian see him off. Mountain Lifting Hermit escorted a batch of materials to Xuanyuan Fortress last night. After meeting Zhang Tie, he didn't even stay overnight in Xuanyuan Fortress. After having a drink with Zhang Tie last night, he had left.
Standing in the heavy wind and snow, Zhang Tie threw a deep glance at the camp of demons. Closely after that, he uttered a long howl while the thunder hawk flew towards him from the skyline like a golden light. Zhang Tie jumped onto the back of the thunder hawk. Closely after that, the thunder hawk rushed into the sky and disappeared from the bank of Weishui River at twice the speed of sound and flew towards the east …
The thunder hawk moved super fast. Before the heavy wind and snow could touch the thunder hawk, they had been blown away by the shock wave of the thunder hawk in the supersonic flight. As a result, none of the snow fell on Zhang Tie.
The moment Zhang Tie left Xuanyuan Fortress, the news had been known by many people …
…
