Whether it was Xu Yao, Tang Ye or Guan Xuefeng, the situation on the ground was shocking for them all. Four years had passed since the war. Who would have thought that in those four years, the comrades they thought dead were still fighting?


Xu Yao’s eyes turned red, and he immediately ordered Leslie to fly closer to the ground.


“No!” exclaimed Le Yao, “You won't be able to do any damage to the enemy with a physical attack. If you go now, you will only break the delicate balance they have created which won't help them.”


“I don’t want to go down to help. I just want them to know that we are here,” said Xu Yao.


“Then wait, let’s find a place farther from here to land. I will try to summon a single lone soldier for you.” Le Yao added, “You can’t directly plunge into their midst anyway, otherwise the situation down there will easily spin out of control.” He had come to summon the undead, not to help fight the undead. He had not drawn any talisman that could attack spirits. If they really fought, it would become a mess.


“Listen to Le Yao.” At this time, Guan Xuefeng ordered, “Since you now know that they do exist, don’t rush for the moment.”


“… Leslie, head twenty kilometers southwest,” Xu Yao’s gaze was fixated on the battlefield, and this usually calm man found it very hard to restrain himself at this moment.


Le Yao asked, “Tell me the birth-dates and birth-times of the soldiers you want to summon. Also, what is the name of the place where the battlefield was situated just now?”


Xu Yao answered, “This is Fuhe Mountain. Leslie, find the birth information of Shang Ting and Shen Weilin, you also need to know the exact time of their birth.”


Leslie: “Yes, General.”


A moment later, Leslie reported two sets of information. Le Yao began to calculate their eight characters. He recorded the calculation in his own communication device. When they disembarked the hover car 20 kilometers southwest, Le Yao found a relatively clean and flat place for the summoning ritual. He held the small toothless dinosaur wand in his left hand and a blessing brush in his right hand. Then, he quickly drew a rune, using the brush, on the ground, which contained the eight characters of Shang Ting and Shen Weilin.


He then drew a circle outside the rune and chanted, “Here, on this land, I call the most spiritual of the Gods, through the Heavens and the Earth, out of the Secluded and into the Underworld, with the spirit and worship of my heart, to please hear me out. Shang Ting, Shen Weilin, if you are listening to this prayer, come and gather quickly!”


Hoooo ~~~


A familiar wind rolled up on the ground again, bringing with it nebulous skies. Soon, two gray-blue spirits appeared opposite Xu Yao and Tang Ye.


Both of these spirits had masculine figures and were about 1.8 meters tall. They were wearing the uniform of the Flying Wolf Division, but under the suffering of the attacks from prolonged battles, it was hard to see the model. The most unnerving part of the view was probably their spirit body, one of which had the whole arm blown off, and the other had a hole as thick as an orc's wrist going through his chest and abdomen.


Guan Xuefeng was right next to Xu Yao and Tang Ye. Naturally, when he saw the undead for the first time, he was shocked!


It’s one thing to see them from a hover car, another to see it in person!


Of course, the most shocked out of everyone present were the two undead soldiers who had been summoned.


Shang Ting was the former Captain of the Medical team. At this time, when he saw Xu Yao and Tang Ye, as well as the Commander, his whole person, no, his entire spiritual body was in a state of utter disbelief. The one-armed ghost turned his head to look at Shen Weilin and exclaimed, “Lao Shen! I seem to see the General! I can see Brother Xu!”


“Yeah, I also see him,” replied Shen Weilin, who had been Xu Yao’s adjutant. After his death in the war, Xu Yao hadn’t found another adjutant. But since he had never left the battlefield, he knew nothing about it. He thought the stranger beside Xu Yao was the one to replace him. Thus, for a while, he felt mixed emotions.


“I’m not dreaming, am I?” said Shang Ting. He walked forward and tried poking at Xu Yao’s arm in a funny way. When his fingers passed clearly through Xu Yao’s arm, his smile froze for a moment.


“It’s not a dream,” Xu Yao said, “Shang Ting, Shen Weilin, I’m Xu Yao. I can also see you.”


“You…” Shen Weilin took a deep breath. He seemed to have a lot to say, but he didn’t know where to start.


“Is this true? Are Brother Xu and Brother Tang also real?” Shang Ting thought this was too unbelievable. In the past four years, they had encountered some living comrades who passed by them, but no matter what they did, the living comrades couldn't see them or hear their voice. But on this day, not only could the General see them, but even the Commander, who had come over, could see them!


“You’ve worked hard these past few years. We didn’t know that you were still here, let alone that you were still fighting,” Guan Xuefeng's hand tried to grasp the young man’s shoulder, but upon thinking of the ghostly-fingers-penetrating scene from before, he only made a gesture of holding the shoulder, and complimented, “Good boy.”


“Commander…” Shang Ting and Shen Weilin felt sourness in their hearts. After meeting their superiors, they didn’t know what to say, so they just silently saluted.


In the past four years, in order to prevent the dead Orcs from escaping and attacking their surviving comrades, they never abandoned the battlefield. They had always surrounded and locked the enemy within a circle. No one knew how tired they were or how hard they fought. They had also wanted to go back to their base. They felt homesick and wanted to see what Huaxia looked like after the victory.


At this time, Le Yao didn’t interrupt, instead, he quietly lit two incense sticks and continued to stand beside Xu Yao.


Shang Ting and Shen Weilin wondered what the stranger was doing. As a result, they could smell the aroma of barbecue as soon as it ignited!


It’s delicious!


“Brother Xu, this is…” Shen Weilin asked after he sucked in the scent two times.


The smell of food! How long has it been since we've inhaled the smell of food?!


“My wife, Le Yao,” Xu Yao introduced, “It’s because he knows a mysterious method that we have a chance to see you again.” Xu Yao then turned to Le Yao, “This is Shang Ting, the Combat Support Medical Captain. This one is Shen Weilin, my adjutant.”


“Hello, Madam!” Shang Ting and Shen Weilin swiftly turned a little excited, “General, are you married?”


So, the stranger is the General’s wife, not a new adjutant or a new medical captain?


“Yes,” Xu Yao said.


“Hello,” Le Yao greeted and continued, “Don’t worry about the things happening on the battlefield, I will find a way to get rid of the Sarna undead and get you released from the battlefield as soon as possible.”


“Is that… really possible?” Shen Weilin didn’t want to look down on anyone but he really thought it was too difficult. The opponent was now in a state where they couldn't fight to the death. So, how could we solve that?


“Anyway, I will find a way. No matter what, I definitely can’t have you stuck there,” Le Yao said, “The General is here, you can rest assured, I’m not talking nonsense.”


Le Yao’s face was small and lovely. Everyone could see the meager amount of strength he had. But strangely, it made people want to believe him.


At this time, the Commander said, “Xiao Le, please do so. If you need any help, just tell Xu Yao at that time. Our entire 12th Army Corps will give you our support!”


“Yes! Don’t worry, Uncle Guan. I will do my best!” declared Le Yao.


Guan Xuefeng patted Xu Yao on the shoulder, “You have a good talk with them. I’ll need to hurry to go back. This matter must be made known to the Grand Marshal as soon as possible. Before I return to Xingdu, you should give me a detailed report.”


“What will you tell them?”


Guan Xuefeng looked at Le Yao and said, “He married into our 12th Army Corps. He’s from our 12th Army Corps. Don’t worry, whatever you say can be done.”


After Guan Xuefeng finished his sentence, he headed straight for a certain open space. As soon as he arrived at the open space, a large hover car appeared slowly in that previously empty place, followed by 12 small hover cars. Only then did Le Yao realize that there was never only one hover car to come here, there were also Guan Xuefeng's guards who had been following them stealthily and could not come out till ordered.


In fact, according to rank, there are 12 hover cars in Guan Xuefeng's guard, while there were six in Xu Yao's.


“General, we have to go back as soon as possible. If the brothers can’t find me and Shang Ting for a long time, they will be worried. “


Xu Yao said, “Let Shang Ting go back first. You stay behind and tell me about the past few years.”


As soon as Shang Ting was ordered to going back, he quickly took a few mouthfuls of the fragrant incense, “Ouch, I really don’t want to go back! Who can tell me this is not a dream?”


Shang Ting was a bit talkative, completely opposite to Shen Weilin’s character. He was the leader of the medical field team. Whenever he was free, he spent time with Xu Yao. At that moment, he really didn’t want to leave.


“I can make sure that it’s not a dream. Wait a minute,” said Le Yao.


Le Yao rummaged through his bag and picked out a small rocking chair. This had originally been made for Rong Gui. When he had left home earlier, he had brought it along because he thought they were going to go to Rong Gui’s place, and was planning to burn it for him. He didn’t expect to come here first.


The rocking chair had been made by using the 3D printer. It was exquisite. Le Yao wrote Shang Ting's eight characters and his receiving address, and then in a flash, a big rocking chair appeared next to Shang Ting!


Amazing!


“Sit and see for yourself. You can also take it back, so you know that it’s not a dream,” said Le Yao.


“This… can I really sit?” Shang Ting exclaimed.


For so many years, no matter what he poked, his fingers would go through it! The weapons they used, the food they ate, nothing from their previous life could be touched. They seemed to only be able to float, and had no place to sit. Most of the time, they would mimic the action of 'sitting down', which was actually just floating in a manner of 'sitting' but not really sitting.


“My God! I can touch it!” Shang Ting exclaimed, “Lao Shen, hurry up! You touch it! My fingers didn't go through it!”


“It’s amazing,” Shen Weilin touched it carefully, as if he were touching a precious treasure. “Madam, how can you do this?”


“Well, it’s a long story. I’ll explain it to you later.” Le Yao continued, “First, tell me, have you felt any changes after you tasted the incense I just burned for you?”


“Yes. I feel stronger,” said Shang Ting.


“I also feel like my body is getting better,” Shen Weilin said.


“Okay, tell me how many of our brothers are in the Underworld,” Le Yao then told Xu Yao, “Husband, we should make more incense and help them replenish some spiritual energy.”


“Do you want to make more incense?” Xu Yao asked.


Le Yao said, “No, just making one big cone will do. The intelligent chef in our house probably won't be able to do it. I think we'll need to borrow the help of the intelligent chef in the cafeteria. Also, it’s better to collect all their birth dates quickly. I would also like to ask Yan Jie for help. Yan Jie should be able to make a program right? There will be many eight characters of birth I'll need to calculate, that if I count them by myself, it'll take forever to finish. I'll have to ask Yan Jie to write a small program that can calculate the eight characters of birth. Besides, the cinnabar powder and the white wine we currently have will not be enough.”


Le Yao became absorbed within his own thoughts as he quickly estimated the amount of wood they would need, the spices and glue he had to use, and then realised that there wasn’t enough paper for the talismans, counting all this with his fingers.


Xu Yao and Tang Ye, as well as Shang Ting and Shen Weilin, all kept their eyes fixed on Le Yao for this long period of time.



The author has something to say:


Xu Yao: My wife, lend me your dinosaur wand.


Le Yao: For what?


Xu Yao: To make it smaller. Can put it in your pocket, take it wherever you go.


Le Yao: If you can make it smaller, I also want to make your 'big fish' smaller! Hmph!


Xu Yao: …
