When other managers saw this, the smile on their faces froze.

Huo Si suddenly held back the sword. The manager's neck was slashed by it and blood gushed out of his neck to the other two managers' faces before the manager could scream.

Seeing this, the other two managers couldn’t help being stiff. Then they used their hands to touch their faces and saw blood on their hands. Then they responded and shouted, "Escape quickly. Someone is killed. Someone is killed."

Meanwhile, they ran to the town.

Huo Si raised the sword in his hand and shouted, "Go. Kill all of them!"

One of them pulled the rein of the horse and took the lead to run to the town.

He caught up with those two managers and held out his sword. Those two managers were killed and fell to the ground.

Huo Si raised his sword and shouted, "Go ahead!"

Seeing this, the rest of the people in the town couldn't help screaming and scattering in all directions with panic in their eyes.

It snowed more and more heavily and the blood turned the white snow into red.

The town was not large so all local people were killed after a few minutes.

At this time, all the soldiers gathered at the gate of the town. Huo Si asked on the horse, "Have you finished it? Have they been killed?"

"Don't worry. They are all killed." Someone pulled the black cloth on his face and said.

Huo Si nodded and said, "Burn here directly."

"Yes!" They replied and dismounted from a horse.

Huo Si and his followers didn't leave until it caught fire.

The town at the back was surrounded by a big fire. The light of fire shone on the land with snow. The snow seemed to turn red and the town would be ashes later.

After a long time, no one would remember there was a town before.

Yan Hao saw heavy smokes from where they left and knew what those people had gone to do, so he couldn't help closing his eyes.

He never thought His Majesty would ask soldiers to slaughter all the local people in the town.

When a team of soldiers returned, Huo Si walked to the front of Lan Cangmo's carriage and said with his hands cupped, "Your Highness, everything is done."

"OK. Let's go." Hearing this, Lan Cangmo stretched himself for relaxation and frowned.

Hearing this, Huo Si replied, "Yes, Your Highness."

Then they continued their journey.

It was snowing more and more heavily, so the snow on the road was getting thicker and thicker later.

They marched slowly.

It got darker and darker and the snow on the road became thicker and thicker. Those injured soldiers were too worn out to go on and suddenly someone fainted.

Seeing this, Yan Hao got down from the horse and helped the faint man stand up. The faint man opened his eyes slightly.

"How about you? Can you keep going?" Yan Hao asked the soldier.

The soldier said in a weak voice, "Commander Yan, I'm... I'm OK."

Meanwhile, the man coughed.

Seeing nobody go forward, Lan Cangmo looked out from the window of the carriage and found a team of soldiers stop there.

Lan Cangmo asked Huo Si on one side, "Go to have a look. What happened there?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Huo Si replied and turned to run backward.

He ran there and asked, "What happened?"

Hearing the sound of Huo Si, one soldier turned back and said, "It is too cold. One soldier fainted just now."

"Is he OK?" Huo Si continued to ask.

Yan Hao raised his head and said, "He has come to himself. These soldiers are injured. Plus the cold weather and the long march, they are worn out."

"Commander Yan, I will report it to His Majesty." Hearing this, Huo Si frowned and turned to run to the carriage.

Huo Si got down from the horse and said with his hands cupped, "Your Highness, one injured soldier fainted. It is cold and they have marched for a long time. They are worn out. How about..."

"I see. Ask them to keep going. It is deserted and isolated here. If we stop here, we will freeze to death." Lan Cangmo narrowed his eyes and said.

Hearing this, Huo Si nodded, "OK."

Huo Si got on the horse and ran backward.

When he arrived there, he got down from the horse and walked to the front of the faint soldier, "Commander Yan, our prince asks us to keep going. The snow will not stop within a short time. If we stop to have a rest, I am afraid that it will be more freezing. We might as well walk forward to find a place to shelter from the storm."

"Yes, but these injured soldiers may..." Hearing this, Yan Hao nodded and looked at the faint soldier.

Huo Si interrupted him and said, "Don't worry, Commander Yan. Let him ride my horse and I will walk with you."

"OK." Yan Hao continued.

Then he put the faint soldier on the horse with Huo Si.

Huo Si turned back and shouted, "Cheer up. We can stop to have a rest until we find a place to shelter from the snow."

Meanwhile, he led the horse and walked forward.

Lan Kuo sleeping in the carriage found the carriage stop and asked the coachman, "What happened?"

"Your Majesty, it seems that someone fainted at the back of the march." The coachman replied Lan Kuo.

Hearing this, Lan Kuo frowned and was about to say something. The coachman added, "Your Majesty, soldiers at the back of the march have caught up. We will keep going."

"OK." Lan Kuo nodded and lay down.

It got darker and darker and it was white all around.

Although the heavy snow stopped, the wind was blowing and nowhere was found to shelter from the snow.

When they were too tired to move on, Yan Hao suddenly pointed at the front and said, "Look! In front is a house."

Hearing what Yan Hao said, they looked at where Yan Hao pointed at and truly saw the outline of the house dimly.

At this time, their eyes brightened.

On such a dark and cold evening, the house was like the first ray of sunshine in the endless darkness.

Those soldiers marched more quickly.

When they went closer, they recognized that it was a deserted temple.

After the carriage stopped, Huo Si walked forward, "Your Highness, here is a ruined temple. How about we stop to be away from coldness?"

"OK. Let's go in." Lan Cangmo said to Huo Si.

Then Lan Cangmo said to Lan Cangyue sleeping and leaning against the carriage, "Bro, let's get out."

Seeing Lan Cangyue not awake, he touched his shoulder, and then Lan Cangyue woke up suddenly. He opened his eyes to look at Lan Cangmo and asked, "What's the matter?"

"There is a ruined temple. Let's go in to shelter from coldness." Lan Cangmo said and got down from the carriage first.

Lan Cangyue nodded and followed to step down.

Lan Cangmo walked to Lan Kuo's carriage and said with his hands cupped, "Father, there is a ruined temple. Let's go in to shelter from coldness and drink some hot soup."

"OK. Let's have a rest here." Lan Kuo agreed in the carriage, stretched himself, and picked up the curtain to go out.

Lan Cangmo hurried to help Lan Kuo go out of the carriage.

Huo Si and other people, who were guarding him in front, began to walk towards the ruined temple.

At this time

"Perhaps there is some sound outside." Someone in the temple said.

Le Qian stood up and looked outside through the broken crack of the door. He saw a team of people walking there with swords in their hands and frowned.

Le Qian glanced back and then his followers hurried to hold their swords tightly and walked to the gate.

When Huo Si approached the gate of the ruined temple, he suddenly stopped.

Lan Cangyue asked from the back, "What?"

Before Lan Cangyue finished, Huo Si turned back quickly and made a gesture of shushing at him.

He signaled to people near him and held the sword tightly.

Huo Si signaled them to stand still and walked to the gate slightly.

When he went to the gate, Huo Si held out his sword suddenly and thrust inside through the shabby crack of the door.

Le Qian standing at the back of the door escaped and used the hand to clip the sword thrust from outside.

Then Huo Si kicked the door open and held out the sword from Le Qian's hand.

Le Qian held out the sword and pointed at Huo Si, "Who are you? Everything needs to be done in order of arrival."

"First come, first served? Do you want to argue with me?" Huo Si snorted and said.

Hearing what Huo Si said, Le Qian continued, "It doesn't work. Then let’s fight."

They glanced at each other and were about to fight against each other.

Lan Cangyue heard the voice from the room and found it so familiar.

When the two men were about to fight with each other, Lan Cangyue frowned and hurried to run out.

"Bro, what are you doing?" Seeing this, Lan Cangmo saw Lan Cangyue run into the room and asked him.

He ran to the gate and shouted, "Stop. Stop."

Hearing the sound, they looked at the gate.

Seeing this, Lan Cangyue hurried to run inside and said, "Are you Le Qian?"

It was so dim in the ruined temple that faces couldn't be seen clearly.

"Your Highness?" Hearing the voice of Lan Cangyue, Le Qian held back the sword and walked to the front of Lan Cangyue.

Lan Cangyue nodded and said, "Yes. Why do you come here?"

"It is a long story. Concubine Luo Lan felt worried about you and asked me to come here. It snowed heavily and we found a deserted and ruined temple, so we went here to shelter from coldness. Surprisingly, we come across you." Le Qian said to Lan Cangyue.

Lan Kuo and Lan Cangmo walked to the gate and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Father and Bro, these are misunderstandings. They are sent by my mother. Let's go in quickly." Lan Cangyue hurried to walk there and said with a smile.
