Chapter 235: Friends ask for help to save all living beings

Looking at the busy people, Shen Yue's lips curled up unconsciously, and he called softly: "Li Yaoguang."

Li Yaoguang turned around and saw the person coming. A smile spread across her face and she responded happily, "Hey, Shen Yue, you're here? Wait for me for a while..."

After saying hello, he quickly finished the work at hand, washed his hands and shook them, then Li Yaoguang ran to the corridor where he was waiting for him with his arms folded, all the hostility and the silver-armored man gone from his body.

"Shen Yue, are you done with your work?"

"Well, yes."

"What do you mean by 'count it as'?" This tone was not right. Li Yaoguang, who was about to lead Shen Yue to his temporary resting place, suddenly stopped and looked at the people around him suspiciously, "Shen Yue, are you in trouble?"

"Hehe." Meeting Li Yaoguang's concerned eyes, Shen Yue suddenly smiled. His smile was complicated, filled with hesitation and uncertainty, but he still said, "I really can't hide anything from you, Yaoguang. Right now, I really want to ask you for help with something."

"What help?" Li Yaoguang had also received help from the man in front of him. If he could help him in any way he could, he would not refuse. "Tell me what you want."

Shen Yue glanced at the surrounding environment and said, "This is not a place to talk. Let's go somewhere else."

They have to change places. Is it some secret? But there is no need for me to participate in secrets. Now the war is over and everything is recuperating. I don’t have much to gain. Could it be that they want to make medicine by themselves?

Li Yaoguang had a lot of thoughts in his mind. He squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Yue carefully. Seeing the eagerness and even pleading in his eyes, Li Yaoguang nodded and said, "Okay, let me say hello to my uncle and then I'll go with you."

Li Yaoguang turned around and was about to go look for Cheng Su, but Shen Yue immediately stopped her, "Yaoguang, wait a minute."

Li Yaoguang was puzzled, "Anything else?"

Shen Yue replied: "Yaoguang, call Brother Cheng to come along."

"With my uncle?"

"Yes, one!"

Shen Yue nodded heavily with a serious expression, which made Li Yaoguang feel inexplicably bad.

If she had suspected just now that this man came to her for the medicines she had stuffed into him before, then now that his uncle was included?

Oh, never mind. I guess this guy won’t hurt me, right?
Li Yaoguang nodded, quickened his pace and called the busy Cheng Su from behind. After saying this, Cheng Su did not dare to delay and hurriedly met Shen Yue with Li Yaoguang. The two did not ask many questions and followed Shen Yue all the way out of the government office, around half of the city, and finally climbed the south city wall and entered the main hall of the city tower where Shen Yue temporarily worked. They arranged Li Yaoguang and his father to sit down and sent away the outsiders. Only then did Shen Yue look at Li Yaoguang with a serious face.

"Brother Cheng, Yaoguang, I invited you here because I have an unreasonable request. The thing is..."

It turned out that after the Hu soldiers outside Pengcheng fled, tens of thousands of remnants fled westward, all rushing to Fengzhou, which was already in danger. Fengzhou had been trapped for a long time, and the people inside were trapped and the soldiers were exhausted. The food and grass had long been consumed. After the setback in Pengcheng, the Hu soldiers wanted to show off their power and vent their anger, and they became more and more ruthless in attacking Fengzhou. "There are more than 50,000 soldiers and tens of thousands of people left in Fengzhou. The enemy's offensive is getting more and more fierce. After being trapped for several times, they are now out of ammunition and food. I just received a message for help from the scouts at the risk of their lives this morning. Yaoguang, if Fengzhou has no more food and grass, the enemy doesn't need to attack again. Before I can lead the troops to help, the city will fall by itself, and then there will be a lot of suffering, so..."

"So what do you want me to help with?"

Li Yaoguang was also confused, and Cheng Su beside him also had confusion in his eyes.

"Yes, General Shen, my daughter is still young, alone, and a woman. Even if she is a bit brave, she is no match for so many barbarians. How can she help you?"

"Brother Cheng, you misunderstood. I didn't ask Yaoguang to go to the front line to kill the enemy, but..."

Shen Yue also knew that what he was about to say might be excessive, but for the sake of all the trapped living beings, he still took a deep breath, clasped his fists, bowed solemnly to Li Yaoguang, and spoke shamelessly.

"Yaoguang, I'm sorry to mention your secret, but I have no other choice. The food and grass that Brother Cheng is transporting are now hidden in Sishui. It's too late to transport them now. The army is advancing. Even if we don't make a military plan to march quickly, it will take some time to transport all the supplies. However, the soldiers and civilians in Fengzhou can't wait.

In order to save the people of Fengzhou, I would like to ask for your help. Can you risk using your magic to help transport some food and grass to Fengzhou for emergency? Don't worry, I won't let you take risks alone. I will send a hundred experts to protect you. You can travel light and fast for 800 miles. You can change horses but not people. You will reach Fengzhou in less than two days. When you get there, how to enter the city and how to explain the source of food will be solved by the people who follow you. You don't need to worry about it. Moreover, the people who follow you are all my father and my confidants since childhood, and they are absolutely trustworthy. "

So this is what you want, Li Yaoguang understood.

Cheng Su, who was standing by, was unwilling to do so when he heard this. He loved his own child and it was rare for him to be selfish. Not only was he unwilling, he even regretted having said too much to Shen Yue at the beginning. Now he refused without even thinking.

"General Shen, this is a serious matter. My children are young and I'm afraid they can't bear such a big responsibility. You should find someone else."

"Brother Cheng." Shen Yue didn't expect that the main person didn't say anything, and he was rejected by the elder first. He looked at Li Yaoguang for help, "Yaoguang, what do you think?"

What does she mean?
Being stared at by both of them, Li Yaoguang smiled bitterly.

"Shen Yue, although I know some skills that ordinary people cannot do, the ability of the five ghosts to carry things has its limits. According to what you said, Fengzhou has tens of millions of people. Even if I work the five ghosts to death, the food and grass I can transport is limited. How can I solve the urgent problem? I am afraid it is just a drop in the bucket! And you didn't say that the food is in Sishui. Even if we transfer it to Sishui right now, and then transfer it to Fengzhou from Sishui, even if we travel light during the period, it will take a long time. How can we catch up?"

Shen Yue said anxiously, "That's fine. I know I'm limited and don't dare to hope to transport all the food at once. I just hope that the food that was previously transported to Pengcheng to attract the enemy can be sent to Fengzhou. It's just a drop in the bucket. It can keep the soldiers and civilians alive for five days. Within five days, I will lead the reinforcements to arrive. I have sent people to transport the food and grass from Sishui. When the siege of Fengzhou is resolved, the food from there will arrive one after another."

Having said this, in order to get Li Yaoguang's agreement, Shen Yue even gave up his pride and self-control, and spoke earnestly.

"Yaoguang, I know this is a reluctant matter, but it concerns the lives of millions of people. Those 50,000 soldiers have been guarding the northwest defense line for many years. When they left the West Pass, there were 200,000 soldiers who lingered and fought bloody battles in the north. It is not easy to keep them until now. Dajing can't afford to lose such an elite army again. This time, I beg you to help me, okay?"

At this point, how could she say no?

Looking at his uncle who was shaking his head at him, and then looking at Shen Yue's eyes full of earnestness, Li Yaoguang finally nodded.
