Chapter 55 Riding Birds Across the Sea and Occupying People's Ancestral Lands
Yeli happily thought about it, and immediately blew a whistle, which resounded in the sky.
When the goldfinch bird heard the call, it swooped down with its wings, and fell like an arrow, and it was very affectionate with the night.
Yeli patted the golden-winged bird and said, "My old man didn't come, so I'll take you to build a meritorious deed today." As he spoke, he leaped over the goldfinch and tapped it twice under its neck.
The golden-winged bird chirped, spread its wings and curled its claws, and flew straight into the high blue sky.
Yeli and Yinguang have been learning art in Yanjing Mountain since childhood, each has a mount, the night is the golden-eyed eagle, Yinguang is the golden-winged bird, when they are free, they drive the birds to chase and play, each other has long been familiar with each other's mounts and passwords, so the night is like their own mount, but it is commonplace, a piece of cake.
Yeli drove the goldenfinch bird to circle twice over the camp, and flew towards the blue sea, flying high in the sky for a while, sweeping the sea low for a while, drilling the clouds and piercing the waves, so happy!
He said smugly in his heart: "Brother, the two of me are comparative, whether you are frozen and cross the sea faster, or I drive a bird to cross the sea faster!" hehe...... I'm afraid that your ice hasn't frozen yet, so I'll bring back that dancing yanghua. ”
The more I thought about it at night, the more complacent I became, and the golden-winged bird flew faster and faster, like a golden light speeding on the blue sea, reflecting the sky and floating to the extreme.
Cham Island is only five or six nautical miles from the coast, the golden-winged bird flutters its wings and flies, and in the blink of an eye, it has reached the sky above Cham Island, and the paddy fields and trees, houses and palaces, and even the fortifications and people are all vividly visible.
Yeli was overjoyed and carried away, and swooped down with a pat of the goldfinch bird, after all, he was young and knowledgeable, and he didn't know that the island had already been fortified.
The defenders of Cham Island did not care at first, but they had never seen such a golden bird, and they all looked up in surprise and chattered.
When the goldfinch bird approached, the soldiers defending the island realized that there was still a person sitting on the bird's back!
Among them, some of the soldiers who had withdrawn from Taotou Pass and followed Kudelie to Cham Island suddenly shouted: "Oh no, the prince who rides the bird is here! Release the arrows! Release the arrows! Release the arrows quickly......
It was Kuderean who was guarding the fortress of the island. When he heard the call, he hurried out of the tent and looked up: although the man could not see clearly, the big bird knew that it was the golden bird that had been in front of the rope.
Suddenly, he ordered all the soldiers to prepare bows and crossbows, and when they got closer, they fired a volley of ten thousand arrows and killed it.
In the middle of the day, Yeli and the Goldenfinch had already flown into the range of the bow and crossbow, and suddenly there was an order, and suddenly the strong bow and hard crossbow on the island were fired together, and countless arrows were just like locusts covering the sky, and they flew densely in the air.
But hearing the sound of arrows breaking through the air and piercing through the wind, it was like a hurricane through the ears, thrilling.
Yeli flew down to the island with the golden-winged bird, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the black below, like a gust of frightening rain. When he understood the reason, thousands of arrows were already rushing in his face, and he flapped the goldfinch to dodge it, and at the same time sharply slashed the demon knife to block.
One round passed, and another round came, and the sky was full of arrows, trapping Yeli and the Goldfinch in the middle.
The night left and right dodged, constantly blocking the arrows, and the golden-winged bird also waved its huge wings to pounce, but it was already caught in the arrow array, and it was difficult to get out.
Yeli gritted his teeth, slapped the bird's neck, and drove the goldfinch to continue to dive.
Although the poor goldfinch bird has spirituality, it is a mortal thing after all, and after a while, its body and wings are full of arrows, and the blood is flying in the blue sky, and from time to time it makes a sad sound.
Although there is a golden-winged bird to cover his body and protect his body with a demon sword, the arrow array is dense and fierce, and he has already eaten an arrow under his right ribs, and the pain is unbearable.
Just when he was powerless to return to the sky, the goldfinch had already rushed out of the dense array of arrows and glided towards the island.
The defenders of Champa Island glided into the island with a man and a bird, and could only look at the sky and sigh, amazed by miracles.
Suddenly, he was shocked and worried, and immediately ordered a sergeant, about 500 people, to quickly search in the direction where the golden bird fell, and be sure to see people in life and corpses in death.
After the order was completed, Hu Delie turned over and got on his horse and went straight to the Cham Palace to meet the great sect master Wu Yanghua.
Cham palace is the place of the origin of the people, the place of sacrifice, built on the island of a hill, Zhu Yongbi tile, carved beams and painted buildings, quite / Zhuang / strict.
Wuyanghua has only been instigated by Huo Nan to raise troops for only two or three months, and he has been defeated and retreated, and there is no way to retreat, and finally he has to retreat to this ancestral old land, ready to use the sea to block the official army, thinking that he will survive, but he has long hated Huo Nan in his heart.
On this day, Wu Yang Hua had just paid a noon sacrifice in the ancestral temple of Cham, and told his eldest son Wu Tengfei about the origin of the ancestor Cham, when he suddenly entered the temple in a panic.
An ominous feeling immediately enveloped his heart, and Wu Yanghua greeted him and asked, "General Su is not guarding the island, why are you here again?"
Suddenly, he knelt down and said, "Great Sect Master: At noon, a person rode into the island on a bird, and was fired by a volley of random arrows, and both people and birds were injured and fell into the island. The last general is afraid that it will be unfavorable to the great suzerain, so I have come to tell you. ”
When Wuyanghua heard the news, the old man burst into tears, and said miserably: "It seems that Di Hongkou has been lost, and both of my sons have died in battle, why are the officers and soldiers so fierce!"
"Great Sect Master: The commander of the official army is the arrogant eldest son Yinguang, who is quite skilled in Taoism and is good at birds, and the person who takes the bird to break into the island must be him. The purpose of coming here must be to explore the truth and prepare to attack the island. Hu Delie replied.
"If he knew this, the old man shouldn't have listened to the instigation of Huo Nan's guy. Huonan's guy came from our department, held his own shadow transformation technique, and raised ghost soldiers in Dihongkou, thinking that the world was invincible. Wu Yanghua muttered, "This is also strange for the old man to be greedy for a while, thinking that the Haitun County Taotou Pass is my old foundation of occupying people, so I want to take advantage of the Kejing people to recapture it, but the Kejing people were defeated so quickly, and now the arrogant people have freed up their hands to deal with us, and we will be driven out by the arrogant people." ”
"Don't be sad, great sect master, although our army is defeated, it is not an easy task for the official army to conquer Champa Island. Now that the cold winter has arrived, most of the officers and soldiers are not adapted to the sea climate, and there is still a strait apart, even if they build warships to cross the sea, it will take a year and a half. Such an unsuitable climate, coupled with the protracted time, the officers and soldiers will not be able to hold on. When they had withdrawn, the last general would go across the sea again, and persuade the flutes, the men, and the people of the sea to the east, for they would come to their aid, for these tribes had long been dissatisfied with their arrogance and would form an alliance with our people. At that time, it is not clear who will kill the deer. "Hu Delie analyzed the head of the way.
"General Ku, wise and brave, the old man does not ask you to guard the Hongkou, but would rather call the old man's two second sons, which shows that the old man has not mistaken you! Only you can share the worries of the old man and lead the people to kill a way out! I only regret that the old man was greedy for profit and did not follow your advice. "Dancing Yang Huadao.
"The matter has come to this, regret is useless, please take care of your body. ”
"Yes, regret is useless, now I can only rely on General Ku. ”
"The last general is all under the orders of the great sect master, even if the horse leather shrouds the body, he will not give up!" Hu Delie was praised and his blood boiled.
"The old man already knows that you are loyal, you should quickly send someone to arrest the eldest prince Yinguang, and be sure to leave a living mouth and send it to the Cham Palace. Wu Yanghua commanded, in fact, his meaning is the clearest: it is nothing more than to take Yinguang as a hostage, and in the future, he will also threaten the officers and soldiers who will attack the island.
"No!" suddenly responded and turned to leave.
Wu Yanghua suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly stopped him and said: "The old man remembers, everyone who is in the royal family of Beiji has a Chiyin totem tattooed on their left chest, which is the diagram of the ascension of the clam fairy and fairy, so you can follow this clue to arrest it." ”
At the beginning, the distant ancestors of the royal family of Beiji broke away from Middle-earth, settled in the Southern Wilderness, and once competed with hundreds of birds and beasts for the land of mountains, rivers, seas and rivers, and had to help solve problems with a knife and mussel fairy, so that the whole country took the sword and mussel as a totem, and the descendants of the royal family must tattoo the sword and mussel fairy on the left chest, and will never forget. This is widely spread in the vast southern wilderness, and the indigenous mountain people know about it.
Hu Delie also suddenly remembered this legend about the totem of the royal family of Beiji, but it was not a matter of catching it according to the map!
The golden-winged bird was covered in bruises, and it kept fluttering its huge wings and gliding six or seven miles into the island, and then began to fall.
In the night, I heard the crackling sound of tree branches crackling in my ears, and countless trees flew by in front of me like light and shadow.
Bang!
Suddenly there was a loud bang!
The goldfinch fell into the spread of leaves and dust, and Yeli was thrown a few feet away, and fell to death.
The heavens and the earth were suddenly silent, and the sunlight crept through the dense forest, sneaking across the mottled ground.
I don't know how long it has been, but Yeli slowly woke up.
After gasping for breath for a moment, he reached out and pulled out the arrows under his ribs, grabbed a handful of dirt to perfunctory the wound, pulled a sleeve of his robe, and simply bandaged the wound, and when he looked around, he found the goldfinch lying motionless in a pool of blood in the distance, dying, and full of arrows, like a hedgehog.
The night drifted away, got up and flew over, hugging the neck of the goldenfinch tightly, tears couldn't help but burst out of his eyes.
The goldfinch bird blocked countless flying arrows for the night, and was covered in wounds and bleeding, and it was already time to run out of oil and dry up. Its pupils showed infinite attachment, and it blinked a few times towards Yeli, and gradually closed its eyes.
Yeli desperately hugged the golden-winged bird, crying silently, like mourning.
It took him a long time to cry for a pillar of incense, and he plucked the arrows from the goldfinch one by one, about three bundles, and buried it in the dense forest.
The night is in a trance, sitting in front of the grave of the golden-winged bird, like a fool.
The sunlight wandered freely among the shadows of the trees, and gradually dimmed, but it was almost dusk.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the distance.
