Qicheng is ten miles away.

Due to the proximity to a grassy slope with abundant water and grass near the plain, there is a herdsman village there.

The herdsmen in the village work at sunrise and rest at sunset, raising a large number of cattle and sheep.

At the turn of spring and summer, the water and grass are luxuriant, which is the busiest time of the year for herdsmen.

However, last night's unwarranted disaster shattered the peaceful life of the villagers in the herdsmen's village.

The sudden beastly rebellion turned the houses of countless villages into ruins, and many families were destroyed.

Under the fence outside the village, a large amount of dry firewood was piled up, and some soldiers were pouring oil on it.

There were more than a thousand soldiers armed with bows and arrows, and they waited outside the village, pointing their bows and arrows at the village.

As soon as someone comes out of it, they are immediately shot.

In the village, cries for help and cries were heard.

Hundreds of villagers huddled helplessly, including many elderly people and children.

"My lord, please spare us. The villagers pleaded bitterly.

"You Diao people, you fell for evil magic, and last night you even colluded with spirit beasts and killed the generals and countless soldiers of the imperial court. To avoid evil, you all have to die. ”

Hong Fang and Xiahou Hong rode horses, looked at the village, reprimanded, and were completely indifferent to the pleading voices of the villagers.

"Unexpectedly, Nie Fengxing is still an infatuated species, and he actually didn't even want his life for that Ye Huang. The fourth prince's face was leisurely, as if those cries for help had nothing to do with him, and those innocent villagers, in his eyes, were not even as good as ants.

It was Nie Fengxing's liking for "men" that surprised the four princes.

Counting it up, Nie Fengxing and him are like-minded people, and the unsightly habit of men and men makes the four princes sympathize with Nie Fengxing.

"If you hadn't discovered this weakness of his, how could you have eradicated him so smoothly. "Hong Fang's eyes are calculating.

Nie Fengxing relied on himself to be the general of the Tiger Wolf Army, ignoring his orders many times, and Hong Fang had long regarded him as a thorn in his flesh.

It just so happened that he had received a secret report, saying that this small village had been attacked by a ninth-order peak spirit beast.

After learning the news, Hong Fang concealed the true situation, and when he fed back to the pioneer camp, he only told the pioneer camp that it was a ninth-order spirit beast in the village.

The people in the pioneer camp were really fooled, and as soon as Emperor Ye went to the village, Nie Fengxing really followed him and went to hunt beasts together.

It's just that I didn't expect that there were not only spirit beasts in the village, but also people who were poisoned, biting people when they saw them, and killing people when they saw them.

Nie Fengxing and Ye Huang were really defeated by the ninth-order spirit beast and died in battle.

As soon as Nie Fengxing died, the tiger and wolf army was leaderless, and those soldiers became a plate of scattered sand.

This is undoubtedly good news for Hong Fang.

"It's a pity that after Nie Fengxing's death, the ninth-order peak spirit beast that killed people also disappeared?" "The ninth-order peak spirit beast, that is similar to the master of the reincarnation realm in the human race.

After killing a ninth-order peak spirit beast, the military merits obtained were enough to seal the marquis.

"Don't worry, the fourth prince, that evil beast will definitely come out and hurt people again. When the time comes, with you and I working together, we will definitely be able to kill that beast, which will be a great achievement. As soon as Hong Fang thought of having the opportunity to become a marquis, his heart couldn't help but surge.

If he can rely on this time to hunt the spirit beast of the peak of the ninth order and get the opportunity to become a marquis, he will no longer need to rely on the snort of the Hong Mansion from now on.

He wants to let the old marquis Hong and Hong Shizi know that even if there is no Hong Mansion, he Hong Fang is still a talent who worships the king.

What I have dreamed of for many years finally has a chance to come true.

Seeing Hong Fang's greed in his eyes, Xiahou Hong sneered on the side.

"Old fox, you are cunning, and you want to use the people of this prince to make contributions for you. I won't fall for you, I've long ordered Zhaofeng and the Nose Emperor to secretly search for the whereabouts of that two-headed python. When this prince kills that beast, Emperor Xia will definitely be impressed by me. When the time comes, maybe the crown prince will be restored. ”

The two are harmonious on the surface, but in the bottom of their hearts, they have their own wishful thinking.

"The four princes and the generals, everything is ready. A general stepped forward to pray.

When the general spoke, there was still a little unbearable in his tone.

Hundreds of lives, can they just watch them die in the fire?

"Set fire, don't leave a single one. If anyone dares to escape, shoot them on the spot. Hong Fang said.

"Yes. The general could only bite the bullet and wave his hand, only to see the archers raise their bows and arrows, and the arrows were blazing with fire.

I only heard a few dings, and there were a few cold rays, which flashed like a glimpse of light.

The arrows of the soldiers in the front row broke and fell to the ground.

"Stop. ”

Only a majestic shout was heard, and several spirit birds flew in the sky.

As soon as the voice sounded, I saw several figures fall to the ground.

"Ye Lingyue. You are so bold that you dare to obstruct General Ben's office. Hong Fang saw that the person who was hindering him was Ye Lingyue, and he was angry.

The last time he was sick for no reason, he hadn't settled accounts with Ye Lingyue, this woman really didn't know whether she was alive or dead, and she dared to come to his territory to make trouble.

It turns out that the so-called office of the general of Zhengxi is to ignore right and wrong, and to ignore people's lives. Ye Lingyue snorted coldly.

"Presumptuous, you are ignorant women and children, what do you know, these villagers have fallen for evil magic. General Nie was killed by these villagers, and if he didn't burn them, it would be difficult to ensure that the safety of other civilians and soldiers would be endangered. Come on, take down this woman!" Hong Fang said righteously.

Several soldiers made a gesture and wanted to take down Ye Lingyue.

Before the soldiers approached, Ye Lingyue and A Guduo quickly took action and pushed several soldiers to the ground.

"Ye Lingyue, you can't rebel!" the fourth prince said angrily. "What are you doing in a daze, shooting these wicked women who intend to rebel. ”

The fourth prince had long hated Ye Lingyue, and when he buttoned down the hat of rebellion, he wanted to kill Ye Lingyue on the spot.

"Rebellion? Is it possible to save hundreds of innocent people, even if it is a rebellion. Ye Lingyue calmly looked around at the soldiers. "Or is it that your father and mother let you join the army, just to let you kill some helpless women and children! What a Great Summer military camp, a good group of good soldiers who 'win glory for the country'. ”

Ye Lingyue's words were extremely ironic, like countless sharp arrows, which pierced the weakness in the hearts of those soldiers.

These soldiers, because of the military order, had to burn the villagers to death.

Seeing the innocent villagers wailing and begging for mercy, they felt so good.

"Bastards, don't listen to the words of this wicked demon to confuse the people. All the staff obeyed the order, if anyone dared to disobey the order, the military law would deal with it!" Hong looked at it, and Ye Lingyue shook the soldiers' military hearts and became even more annoyed.
