This was an indescribable feeling, as if there was something heavy lingering in his heart, making him feel depressed. But no matter how he thought about it, he could not figure out what it was.
Was the pressure from this war too great?
Li Jing thought to himself.
There was no invincible general in this world. The honor of being the War God was indeed quite a bit of pressure for him.
And at this moment.
Suddenly, the screams of soldiers came from not far away.
"What happened?" Li Jing frowned.
"General, some soldiers spoke nonsense in the army, so they were punished." The deputy general cupped his hands and replied.
Li Jing nodded slightly and did not say anything else.
In this kind of weather, being whipped, even a soldier with sufficient vitality might not be able to survive the night.
However, orders had to be obeyed in the army.
If one made a mistake, one would be punished. Li Jing had always been impartial on this point.
He turned around and returned to his tent to rest. After hesitating for a moment, he did not take off his armor. Instead, he wore the cold armor to rest.
And on the other side.
The soldiers were tied up and whipped again and again by the cowhide. They screamed miserably, but they still shouted, "Brother,
"Wronged! We really saw Xu Daniu. We wouldn't dare to speak nonsense! "
"Cut the crap. Do you want to die?" A centurion was obviously very angry. "Xu Daniu died in battle long ago. You saw it with your own eyes. Half of his head was chopped off by the Turks. Did you see a ghost?"
"But we really saw it." "That Xu Daniu really only has half a head. Blood is dripping everywhere, and his brain matter is splattered everywhere. His only eye is glowing green, and he keeps asking us why we didn't bring back half of his head, why we left him behind …" A soldier's lips were purple, and his body was trembling.
His voice grew weaker and weaker. His eyes were wide open, and he did not move at all. Snow continued to fall on his body and hair.
A soldier walked up and reached out to touch.
He shivered.
"My, my lord, he, he's gone."
"How is that possible! Didn't he reach the Blood Condensation Realm long ago? How many lashes did he receive? "
The centurion could not help but take a deep breath. He took a few steps forward and reached out to touch, but he could not help but shrink back.
Cold, too cold.
He had seen many dead people in the army, but he had never seen one as cold as this.
Looking at that person's widened eyes, they actually seemed to be reflecting a faint green light.
Even the centurion felt waves of disgust in his heart.
He reached out and wiped the man's eyes to help him close his eyes.
But as soon as he took his hand away.
All of a sudden.
The dead soldier's eyes suddenly opened.
"Ah."
A few exclamations came from the side. Some people even took a few steps back and fell on their butts in the snow.
This scene was truly horrifying.
Coupled with the soldier's last words, a chill swept through everyone.
It was as if there really was a ghost with only half a head wandering around them.
Even the centurion felt a chill run down his spine.
However, he also knew that military rules were strict.
He turned his head and said fiercely,
"What are you afraid of? What is there to be afraid of? Why don't you think about where you are and what kind of evil spirit would dare to enter my army?! "
"But, but this is a military ghost …" A soldier trembled. Before he could finish his sentence, the centurion glared at him fiercely.
"Don't talk nonsense. Military rules are strict. If you don't want to be punished to death, then shut your mouths!" The centurion suppressed the commotion with one sentence.
But then, the few punished soldiers all died one after another.
Even the whipping was not over yet.
Usually, this level of punishment would not be life-threatening.
All of a sudden.
Even if there were military rules.
The spread of fear could no longer be controlled.
"Have you heard? There are ghosts in the army! "
"Those who were punished all died in vain."
"Someone really saw it. Xu Daniu, who had half a head chopped off, came back."
"Military ghosts are not afraid of the Evil Spirit in the army at all."
“.....”
The soldiers were discussing in private.
Shen Yi saw all of this.
Normally, in an ancient army, especially one like this one that had been through hundreds of battles, mere ghosts and gods would not cause much of a stir. After all, these soldiers, which one of them did not kill enemies in close combat on the battlefield? They had long been used to death and killing.
But at this moment.
Formless fear continued to permeate the air.
This was obviously not normal.
What was even more abnormal was that the blood Qi, or rather, the psionic energy in these people was constantly gathering together with this fear. It gathered on a group of erratic souls and gradually solidified.
The night gradually deepened.
Heavy snow was falling, but the moon was gradually brightening.
Some soldiers opened their eyes in a daze.
They found a strange shadow reflected on the tent.
This shadow only had half a head!
"Ah —!"
Shrill screams were heard.
Even Li Jing was awakened.
"What happened?" Li Jing asked in a deep voice.
"Reporting, reporting to the general!" His deputy general, a true general who had been through hundreds of battles and a martial arts expert, could not suppress the fear in his voice at this moment. "There, there are ghosts! There are ghosts in the army! "
It was also at this moment that screams were heard again. This time, it was not the screams of one person.
One could even hear the screams of fear.
Li Jing could no longer sit still. He had been sleeping in his armor. At this moment, he picked up his long saber and directly rushed out of the tent.
And the moment he went out.
Cold, very cold.
The snow had not stopped, but the moonlight shone on the snow. The extreme cold continued to spread as if it had penetrated into the bone marrow.
One had to know that he was a top master in the Transcendent State!
Even if he rolled naked in the ice river, he would not feel cold at all.
But at this time, he could not care less. There were more and more screams, and the entire camp was in chaos. Countless soldiers even thought that it was an enemy attack.
"Pass down the order. All soldiers out of the tent and perform their duties! Do not panic! Follow me! "Li Jing ordered decisively.
After all, he was the Tang Empire's God of War and had a reputation. Now that he stood out, the frightened soldiers around him seemed to have found their backbone.
They all followed behind Li Jing and ran toward the place where the screams came from.
The closer they got, the colder it became.
Some soldiers were shocked to find that a soldier had fallen to the ground. His body was stiff like an ice sculpture.
And they finally saw the culprit.
Ghost! It was really a ghost!
It was unknown whether it had a physical body or not, but it had a repulsive face. It only had half a head left and was dripping with blood. Its body was constantly moving, like giant snakes wriggling in the blood-red ghost Qi.
And the moment they saw it, great fear surged in their hearts.
It was not controlled at all.
