Chapter 39: The Devil
Happy kowtow like pounding garlic, after a while, his face was covered with blood, Gao Jian knelt on the side to apologize to His Royal Highness the Prince, and asked His Royal Highness the Prince not to remember the villain.
Gao Jian is happy that although the two brothers are strict with their subordinates on weekdays, they are not harsh, although the official position is not big, but they are always an official, but they never put an official in front of their subordinates, although the usual training is indeed a little ruthless to their subordinates, otherwise even if Zhong Yebai's strategy is exquisite, the two hundred Xuanjia army can retreat with only a few minor injuries, which also shows that Gao Jian is happy that the two brothers are not to mention anything else, and the training is indeed a good hand.
As for the leisure time, Gao Jian is happy to call his subordinates brothers, there is wine to drink together, meat to drink together, and kilns to go together, as for the Qinglou, Gao Jian is happy that the two brothers will occasionally go together to go shopping a few times, never bring their subordinates, and the consumption there is always too high, so I want to invite my subordinates to go together, and I am really shy. But on the whole, Gao Jian was happy that the two brothers could still share weal and woe with their subordinates, and they also won the hearts of the two hundred Xuanjia Army.
But seeing that Gao Jian was happy that the two brothers knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the point that their heads were bleeding, Zhong Yebai was still stunned there, and the two hundred Xuanjia soldiers couldn't help but feel a little angry, and felt that it was not worth it for Fang Cai's battle to protect His Royal Highness the Prince of the World.
But on the other hand, isn't the rumored His Royal Highness the Prince such a person?
Finally, the two hundred Xuanjia soldiers knelt down to His Royal Highness the Prince.
"Please also ask His Royal Highness the Prince to spare Captain Gaodu!"
Two hundred voices sounded together, and although the scene could not be compared with the battle in Lanruo Temple, the two hundred voices that sounded in unison on the empty galloping road were still quite shocking.
And Zhong Yebai still stayed there, deaf to the two hundred voices that shook the sky, and turned a blind eye to the kowtow of the two brothers, Gao Jian and Xingxing.
At this moment, Gao Jian's heart is cold, and the heart of the two hundred Xuanjia Army is also cold, although it is rumored that His Royal Highness the Prince of the Middle World is so unreasonable and unemotional, but it really falls on his head, and his heart is really uncomfortable.
And the colder, happy heart, at this time the joy is like ashes, on the one hand, regretting that he said the wrong thing, causing this unwarranted disaster, on the other hand, he ruined the hope of Gaojiazhuang for himself, and ruined the thoughts of the children of the Gao family who died in the ten years of the Warring States Period......
But Gao Jian didn't know, he was happy not to know, the two hundred Xuanjia troops didn't know, the Royal Highness of the Prince they greeted at this time was no longer the rumored His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, and the His Royal Highness the Prince of the World standing in front of them at this moment was a person from a distant world, a person who did not belong here at all, or did not belong here before, but now belongs here.
And this person who only became His Royal Highness the Prince of this world the day before was not ruthless and unrighteous, and it was even less likely that he would be angry at a happy gaffe, as for his ignorance of Gao Jian, his blindness to happiness, and his ignorance of the emotional scene of the two hundred Xuanjia troops kneeling, it was because at this moment, Zhong Yebai raised his head and saw a person, Niu Si stood beside him, and also saw such a person, a person about the height of a person.
This person has a pair of horns on his head, a long oxtail across his back, and what is even more strange is that this person has a pair of huge swan wings on his back, all of which are black, and it is possible that he can't see the specific color clearly in the dark night.
A pair of swan wings kept waving, causing the person to hover in the air, about fifty zhang away from Zhong Yebai, just watching Zhong Yebai.
Although this person was far away from Zhong Yebai, Zhong Yebai could clearly feel that person's hostility and fear towards him.
"Hell Angels?" Zhong Yebai muttered confusedly.
Horns, tails, this is not what the Western legends of the previous world are, the messenger of hell looks like this, and a pair of swan wings grow behind him, but he looks like an angel.
Hellbringer? Angel?
Zhong Yebai was puzzled, how could there be such a thing in this world?
At this time, I heard Niu Si next to him trembling nervously and muttering a word.
"Demon!"
"Demon?, is that the demon you mentioned to me before, the demon north of the North City?" Zhong Yebai asked Niu Si in surprise, but his eyes were still fixed on the strange humanoid creature.
Niu Si seemed to be a little scared, even if there were these Xuanjia soldiers around him, he was still a little trembling, "Hmm!"
Along the way, Niu Si introduced Zhong Yebai to various situations in this world, including the poem that Sora sang for the monk.
"Drunk to pick up the lamp to look at the sword, dream back to blow the horn company camp, eight hundred miles under the command, fifty strings turn over the outside sound. Autumn soldiers on the battlefield. ”
A hundred years ago, the demon clan raised troops to the south, known as the Confucian swordsman who came out once in five hundred years, Wei Wujian, the prince of Dongyue, recited this poem at the head of the city of Beibei, as a soldier, Zhong Yebai heard this story, when he heard this word, he was still enthusiastic, and he couldn't help but have a little interest in the demon clan entrenched outside the Beibei City, but he didn't expect that it was only a day, and he saw it with his own eyes.
But Zhong Yebai was still a little puzzled, how could Niu Si, a cloth seller, know the appearance of the demon outside the northern city?
"Have you ever seen a demon before?" Zhong Yebai wondered.
Niu Si nodded, "I have been to Xuandu once, and it happened that the leader of the demon clan led an envoy to Xuandu to discuss trade with Emperor Daxuan, and I met it once on the street, and I only felt a chill down my spine at that time. ”
"Did they kill someone?"
Niu Si shook his head, "Not really, but the gloomy aura on their bodies, Niu Si will never forget in this life!"
Zhong Yebai looked at the humanoid creature in mid-air, pondered for a while, and suddenly shouted, "All the Xuanjia soldiers obey the order!"
The two hundred Xuanjia soldiers who were kneeling on the ground only heard Zhong Yebai's order, and immediately reflexively stood up, "The Xuanjia Army is here!"
A majestic voice echoed on the gallop road, but the two hundred Xuanjia troops beat drums in their hearts, could it be that His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is going to give a heavy hand to his two leaders?
If His Royal Highness really ordered the amount to be heavy-handed to the leader, will it be carried out or not?
Let's do it, the two leaders share weal and sorrow with their brothers, and they really can't do it.
Don't execute it, His Royal Highness the Prince is the only son of the King of Chu, and he has hung up the position of a general, although His Royal Highness the Prince has never done anything before, but according to the position, he is his superior, according to the law of Daxuan, if you don't listen to the dispatch of your superiors, you can deal with it by military law, and at least dozens of military sticks, or beheading to show the public, with the character of His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, who is arrogant and domineering, and will repay him, I am afraid that ......
The two brothers, Gao Jian and Gao Gao, got up slowly, especially Xingxing, who almost showed that they had already accepted their fate.
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness did not take care of himself, but stretched out his hand and pointed diagonally at the air, "Take a long crossbow and shoot!"
Everyone looked in the direction of His Royal Highness the Prince's fingers, but saw a demon hovering in the air, looking at themselves with fierce eyes, so they didn't care whether His Royal Highness the Prince punished the two leaders, and Gao Jian was happy and didn't care whether His Royal Highness the Prince would punish him.
With an order, two hundred bolts shot at the hovering demon.
But helplessly, the demon waved the giant wings of the swan behind him a few times, and it actually increased the height of dozens of zhang, the crossbow arrow was not like a crossbow machine, the range was only a few dozen zhang, and the sword rain was still more than ten zhang away from the demon, and they fell to the ground one after another.
