Chapter 383 Who Is that Grandmaster?

At this time, the camp had already been in a mess. The soldiers of the prefecture and the county were in good condition. Although they were all panicked, they did not mutiny.

Although the county governor Sima Zongheng was beaten to vomit blood in front of them and his life or death was unknown, Chen Lifu was still there, and the Black Mountain Prefecture in Nangong was still there, so their backbone was still there, so there was no need to worry. At least they had to wait until the specific news came from the battlefield.

The people of the aristocratic families and countless casual cultivators were really panic-stricken and in chaos. Even the strongest Sima Zongheng here was defeated. At this time, why not run for their lives?

However, they were still worried and waited and watched. If there was a leader at this time, everyone would have to follow!

But when everyone was panicking, a flying boat came from a distance. When Chen Lifu appeared on the bow safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Since he returned safely, it meant that there was no big problem. Whether to leave or stay, it was naturally up to Chen Lifu.

Some people were secretly thankful that they didn't leave and run away directly, otherwise they would be caught by this person and it would be difficult to get away.

"The strange tomb has retreated. Let's take a break today and continue the land reclamation tomorrow!" Chen Lifu's tone was calm and firm, which made many people feel more at ease. As a commander, he remained calm when the sky was falling. This was because if the commander himself was panicked, how could he make his subordinates feel at ease.

"How is the county governor?" Yan Zhen frowned and asked.

Chen Lifu turned his head to look at Yan Zhen, his eyes deep, "The county governor is fine!"

"Can you ask the county governor to come out and see me?" Yan Zhen's face was serious, "We all know that the county governor is the backbone of this land reclamation. If something happens to the county governor, we will be uneasy and this land reclamation will be difficult to continue!"

Chen Lifu's face was solemn, and he gradually became murderous. What an old thing, what is he going to do? Seeing that the people below seemed to be in an uneasy atmosphere again, he was about to speak, but heard a voice from the cabin.

"You are looking for me?" Sima Zongheng walked out of the cabin, his face was still pale, but he was able to walk.

Yan Zhen's face changed, and he shook his head, "Just to confirm whether the adults are safe, whether it will affect tomorrow's development! Since the county governor is fine, I will withdraw!"

"Don't worry, I am indeed injured, but it will not affect tomorrow's development. After fighting all day today, I am tired. You can go and rest!" Sima Zongheng waved his hand and signaled everyone to retreat.

The condensed atmosphere in the camp finally loosened, and everyone was very happy. Sima Zongheng and Chen Lifu were both fine, so there was no big problem.

Sima Zongheng and Chen Lifu returned to the camp residence, followed by Chen Xiao and Nangong Nei.

After entering the residence, Sima Zongheng suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Fortunately, Chen Lifu was quick to support him and put him on a chair to sit down.

"How is it?"

"The injury is a bit serious, but with the help of the treasure pill, it can recover quickly!" Sima Zongheng waved his hand, indicating that everyone should not worry.

"Don't be stubborn. If it doesn't work tomorrow, then wait for a day. As long as you wake up, even if they are dissatisfied, they dare not say anything more!" Chen Lifu was not very reassured.

"It's really okay. Although I don't want to admit it, but... that strange tomb... showed mercy!" Sima Zongheng's face was complicated, "If that strange tomb really spared no effort, I'm afraid I will die!"

Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and Nangong Nei asked directly: "Then is he still strange? I have never seen a strange who would show mercy!"

Chen Xiao nodded. He understood this word by word, but what is mercy? Wei Yi also understands this?

"There are such people in the world." Nangong Nei shook his head. He had learned a lot today.

"Otherwise, how can they be called weird? What's so strange about the occasional appearance of a non-bloodthirsty person?" Sima Zongheng sighed, "It's a good thing, otherwise it would be dangerous today. If I die, this land reclamation will be ruined!"

That's right. The county governor is the core of the core of the land reclamation order. Once Sima Zongheng gets into trouble, this land reclamation will be declared a failure. Moreover, this is just a land reclamation. If it fails, it fails. The real trouble is still to come.

The entire Xining County will be in turmoil because of this. When Chen Lifu thought of this situation, he was afraid. This is why he chose to send Sima Zongheng to the flying boat, but chose to stay behind to cover the rear.

Anyone can die, but Sima Zongheng can't! Because Sima Zongheng's life and death are not related to him alone, but to the entire Xining County! It is the hundreds of millions of people in the entire Xining County!

"If you are really fine, I will go and appease the troops, and there will be no impact on the development tomorrow!" Chen Lifu confirmed again.

Sima Zongheng nodded, "Go ahead, if I have something to do, why should I force myself?"

"I will go too, it is more appropriate for me to go to the palace soldiers..." Nangong Nei just opened his mouth and heard a noise outside the house.

"What disturbed you?" Chen Lifu frowned. He was about to leave, but he had to stop at this time.

A commander walked in with a serious face, "There is a part of the palace soldiers... the Jiahuo Department, the whole unit is missing!"

This person was the general who was ordered to come back to check the rear.

"What?" Nangong Nei walked quickly to the man, "What happened? How could they be missing? Did they retreat or mutinied?"

A part of the troops, that is 5,000 people, what does that mean? It is impossible for 5,000 people to suddenly disappear.

"Maybe I'm trapped in a strange situation!"

Everyone was stunned, and Nangong Nei also reacted, "It's impossible. Are you sure you suddenly disappeared when you were retreating? Not when you were advancing forward?"

This is unreasonable. If you encounter a treacherous situation when you are advancing forward, it is possible that you cannot avoid it. However, when you retreat, you have blazed a trail yourself. How can you avoid being discovered in a treacherous situation?

When pioneering, the masters were all in the lead. Ordinary soldiers couldn't notice it, but the masters shouldn't be able to notice it.

"It is certain that when we retreated, that group of troops completely disappeared!"

"When did it happen?" Sima Zongheng suddenly asked.

"Three quarters of an hour ago!"

Sima Zongheng pondered for a moment, "Has a grandmaster already gone to rescue me?"

The man was stunned, "Yes, that grandmaster has a strange face. I have asked many people, and they all said they have never seen him before, and he is not a grandmaster from the county or city!"

Everyone turned their attention to Nangong Nei, but Nangong Nei was confused. Could it be... However, he shook his head, "There are only three grandmasters in Fucheng, and I don't know them either!"

"Then where did this person come from?" Sima Zongheng frowned, but quickly shook his head, "That's all, the top priority is to find the missing troops first!"
