Chapter 248 Second Apprentice

Seeing that Tailuan and others were injured, Deng Jiugong hurriedly stopped tidying up the city wall pretendingly, and immediately ordered the city gate to be opened wide, and thousands of people including Tailuan were released.

When the city gate was just closed, Eshun had already led the army to the city.

Eshun was full of anger, and he yelled at Deng Jiugong in the city: "Deng Jiugong, wait, even if you surrender, I will not let you go."

Deng Jiugong was puzzled, why was Tai Luan chased him back even though he was chasing him away.

At this time, I saw Tai Luan and Huang Tianxiang running from outside the city gate to the city wall. Although their clothes were burnt, they were full of excitement.

"What's going on?" Deng Jiugong asked quickly.

Tailuan said excitedly: "General Soldier, we chased and killed all the way, estimated to have killed [-] to [-] enemy troops, and we were about to capture Eshun. But at the last moment, the Huobao army launched an attack on us in order to protect Eshun. After the attack, we couldn't withstand the rockets, so we retreated. But it doesn't matter, the sergeants only suffered some minor injuries."

And the talcum powder on Huang Tianxiang's face has been turned into wisps by the sweat that flowed down, revealing his original skin color, but his face is also full of excitement.

When Tailuan was excitedly continuing to talk about killing the enemy to Deng Jiugong, he suddenly saw Deng Chanyu who was hugging Su Yuan tightly with both arms, and couldn't help but wondered: "Miss, what's wrong with Taishi Su? You Why are you helping him?"

At this time, Deng Chanyu realized that she was still pestering Su Yuan, and said "Oh", she quickly let go of her arms and said, "Just now Grand Master Su was a little nervous when he saw you retreating, so I'm supporting him."

Tailuan looked at the helpless Su Yuan, shook his head, and said, "No way, I think you are the one who is nervous."

Deng Chanyu said angrily: "Why am I nervous, I'm afraid of letting him run away."

After saying this sentence, Deng Chanyu suddenly covered her mouth, knowing that she had made a slip of the tongue, she immediately blushed and hid behind Su Yuan.

Seeing this, Tai Luan felt strange: the eldest lady also blush?It's so strange.But why did Grand Master Su run away?
And Su Yuan finally escaped, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and was very grateful to Tai Luan in his heart.

At this moment, Eshun under the city ordered the hot army to attack immediately, but the rocket landed on the city wall and still could not be ignited.

Eshun gritted his teeth in anger. He fled in embarrassment after being hunted down just now. If he hadn't found out that the "ghost" chasing him was also afraid of fire, he would have fled all the way back to Nanzhen.

Therefore, seeing that Sanshanguan could not be attacked with fire, Eshun was not willing to retreat at all.

At that moment, Eshun said coldly: "Okay, I'll be trapped at Sanshan Pass, and I'll see how many days the food in your city can last."

Eshun's army immediately stationed outside Sanshanguan City and surrounded Sanshanguan.

Standing on the top of the city, Deng Jiugong looked at the endless Eshun camp below the city, and frowned again.

Now that there is a large army stationed outside the city, and there is no food and grass in the city, the siege of Sanshan Pass is still unresolved.

Just when Deng Jiugong was frowning, he heard Tailuan still excitedly talking about Eshun's escape just now. The more Deng Jiugong listened to it, the more upset he became, and he immediately scolded: "Okay, save your energy, it's gone. Eat, let's see how you can still laugh."

After Tailuan was scolded, she immediately lowered her head and dared not speak, but looked at Su Yuan with grievance.

Just now Tailuan helped Su Yuan out of the siege, so seeing Tailuan's grievance, Su Yuan said to Deng Jiugong: "General soldier, there is no need to worry about food in the city now."

Deng Jiugong sighed: "Teacher, you don't know something. Although there is salt, the food in the city is only enough for six days."

Su Yuan said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about the chief soldier, I have my own way. General Tailuan, you come with me."

Seeing Su Yuan take Tailuan away, Deng Jiugong was full of doubts, but he hadn't slept all day and night, and felt his eyelids were heavy, so he returned to the hall and fell asleep sitting on a chair.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Deng Jiugong slowly woke up, and felt a sudden burst of rice fragrance coming from his nose.

With a jolt, Deng Jiugong woke up immediately, and hurriedly opened his eyes to see that there was a bowl full of rice on the table in front of him.

It was already dark at this time, and the lights in the hall were dim, Deng Jiugong didn't see what was in the bowl, but immediately flew into a rage, he slapped the chair and stood up: "Have you passed?"

You know, there is only six days' food in the city, so you have to save food every day. A big bowl like this is enough food for two days.

At this time, I only heard Su Yuan's voice from the side: "The chief soldier is awake, you can eat something."

Only then did Deng Jiugong see that Su Yuan was sitting beside him, and there was also a big bowl in front of Su Yuan, which was also full of food.

Deng Jiugong quickly bowed and said: "The Grand Master is a guest, you can eat more."

While speaking, Deng Jiugong found that Deng Chanyu, Deng Xiu, Tailuan and others were all sitting in the hall, and each bowl was filled with the same full amount of grain.

This time, Deng Jiugong couldn't bear it any longer, and roared at Tailuan and others: "There is only six days' ration left, the grand master doesn't know, don't you know too?"

Tailuan replied aggrievedly: "General Soldier, we didn't use the surplus food."

"You still dare to quibble, so what are you eating?"

"This is what the grand master told us to go up the mountain. This is potato rice."

"What kind of potato rice, the mountain is full of poisonous weeds, how dare you eat it casually." Only then did Deng Jiugong see clearly that in the bowl in front of his eyes, there were round golden unknown things.

Su Yuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Chief Soldier, these potatoes are edible. Generals, let's start together."

Although Tailuan and the others couldn't understand what it meant to start, they couldn't bear it long ago. Seeing Su Yuan grab the potatoes first, everyone immediately started to eat them.

Fearing that the potatoes were poisonous, Deng Jiugong wanted to stop him, but seeing that everyone present was feasting, he couldn't help but picked up a potato, put it in his mouth and took a bite.

Seeing that the potatoes were smooth and tender, fragrant and sweet, Deng Jiugong couldn't help shouting: "It's delicious!"

That night, the entire Sanshan Pass was filled with the aroma of potatoes, and all the soldiers and civilians were talking about the virtues of the grand master when they were full.

It's just that the name potato is too difficult for them to remember, so everyone calls it Taishidou.

Being in the Sanshan Pass, while eating potatoes, Su Yuan could feel powerful forces pouring into his body from all around him, making his cultivation grow unknowingly, towards Xuanxian's The border is getting closer.

However, although there is food and drink in the city, the siege of Eshun outside the city still cannot be removed.

Eshun's army is numerous and powerful, and there is even a terrifying hot army, so they can only hide in Sanshan Pass and dare not go out of the city at all.

After dinner, Deng Jiugong summoned all the generals to discuss how to retreat from the enemy in the hall.

It's just that everyone talked about it, but there was no good way at all.

Because once they left the city, they still couldn't stop the attack of the hot army.

Just when everyone was helpless, Su Yuan said slowly: "I can find one to deal with the hot army."

Deng Jiugong was overjoyed and said, "Grand Master, I don't know which general you invited?"

"My second apprentice."
