The lion king settled Ban Hu and his party, and his heart was finally a lot more steady, after all, Ban Hu, Duo Qian and others came from the city of elves, and they all had first-class spiritual power and mana, but Ban Hu and they had more important things, and they were going to leave sooner or later. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe Lion King realized that it was imperative to go to the capital as soon as possible to obtain the support of the imperial court, especially if he hoped to obtain the right to recruit soldiers!

"Lord, how long will this trip take?" Ban Hu asked worriedly, "We can accompany you!" ”

The night before the lion king's departure, the lion king decided to go to the river alone with Ban Hu to chat.

"The most important thing is to defend the Imperial Tomb! You are still here for the time being, recuperate and recharge, the road to the Far Western Regions is very long, you still need to be fully prepared, this king will be back in ten days! By the way, I'll bring you some supplies. ”

"That's it, Xiaoluo and Xiaoyi are still children, and they haven't seen the prosperity of the capital, so you should take them with you, and let him adapt to human life by the way!"

"Are these two children also ......?"

"Yes, the snail is a sea spirit who knows the sea; The first child is an ant spirit, and he knows the underground mountains! If the prince can cultivate with his heart, he will definitely be a talent in the future! ”

"I see, that's great! This king is preparing to prepare a sailor to guard the Qinglong River! Maybe Xiaoluo is still a talent of a water master! And the little elf must have a unique ability to siege the city! ”

"However, the two of them are children after all, so it makes Natsumi look at them better!" Ban Hu proposed.

"Good fellow, gave me three helpers at once!" The Lion King pondered.

"Alright then!" The Lion King didn't refuse, "However, everything here is temporarily under your command to help me guard the mausoleum." ”

The Lion King also made a request.

"Alright then!" Ban Hu did not refuse.

The Lion King decided to go back to Lengyang City first, and let the city lord Mo Xin lead the army to Xiyang City to investigate, and by the way, clean up the zombies between Lengyang City and Xiyang City, and do a good job of defense, after all, the Tiger King's army is constantly advancing here along the Great Wall! Then I will take a boat along the Qinglong River to the capital.

The lion king had no boats available, so several craftsmen cut down a few pine trees in a nearby mountain bag and made a simple raft.

"Hey, what's going on with those donkeys?" As he and the Lion King left the river bank and returned to the barracks, Ban Hu noticed the strange donkeys wandering along the riverbank.

"That's the 'flying donkey'!" So, the lion king told the story of the elder brother of Banhu, Xilong, as it was. When Ban Hu heard this, he suddenly realized: it turned out that the lost wings of those bat spirits they found in the elven city had been brought here and placed on the bodies of Xilong and the others!

"Who could it be? Dark Lord? Or is it someone else? Ban Hu's heart was full of questions.

"Then where did my senior brother go?"

"Xilong has helped this king to reinforce Cold Yang City, but there is no news from him so far."

"Report! ......" The herald sent a handwritten letter from Xilong. The lion king hurriedly opened it and couldn't help but be shocked.

"The main force of the Dark Lord is north of Cold Sun City! The Yuryu has already begun to pursue! ”

The situation suddenly changed, and the lion king had to think of another countermeasure.

"Herald, immediately order the cavalry battalion to assemble!" The Lion King decided to act immediately.

"Master Ban, follow me!"

The lion king hurriedly brought Ban Hu into his tent, which hung a detailed map of the area under his jurisdiction. Among them, the terrain of Xiyang City and the Great Wall in the north, Lengyang City in the south, Wanguo Mountain Range in the west, and Jingchi Road in the east is densely marked by the Lion King. It can be seen that the lion king attaches great importance to this area.

"The Dark Lord has appeared here, and the Tiger King's forces will soon be able to join him here, this area is the last barrier north of the capital! This king must not be lost! Once lost, the Dark Lord will cut off the connection between the Crystal Empire and the north, and at the same time, the Dark Lord and the Tiger King will be able to advance along the Qinglong River and Jingchi Road, both by land and water, and go straight to the capital! If that's the case, there's no point in guarding the Emperor's Mausoleum! The Lion King stood in front of the map and said worriedly.

"Lord Wang, how many cavalry do you have?"

"In addition to the 800 cavalry that Xilong took away, I still have more than 200! In addition, I have 300 grain guards and more than 100 craftsmen and porters! ”

"We have eight Eagle's Nest Knights in the Elven City, and they can be a hundred, but they are all the guards of Princess Duoqian, and I can ask the princess for help! The Dark Lord is a villain even in the city of elves, and I believe the princess will be willing. "Ban Hu decided to help the Lion King.

"With your help, then I'm relieved!" The Lion King looked extremely happy, "Do you need anything?" For example, weapons, grain and grass......"

"You don't have to be polite, you are ready, we were ready when we were in the city of elves! I'm going to consult with my companions now! ”

The lion king politely sent Ban Hu to the door.

"I really didn't expect that people could become so young, it seems that the city of elves is indeed a wonderful place!"

Looking at the figure of Ban Hu's departure, the lion king sighed while brushing his beard.

The Lion King knew that the current situation was not optimistic, and although he had the help of Ban Hu and his party, in the face of the menacing Tiger King's troops, the Lion King obviously felt that his troops were insufficient. No matter how powerful the mage is, it will be difficult to withstand the flood of attacks from so many heavily armed people. What's more, the Tiger King also has the help of the Dark Lord.

As for the Sea Dead King, the Lion King was not so worried, because whether it was the capital or the Crystal City and the Sea City, they were all direct victims, and they all hated the Sea Dead King. In this way, against the Sea Dead King, at least he is not alone; And the Tiger King's soldiers rushed directly towards him, and it was obvious that he was what the Lion King really needed to worry about.

The lion king was in front of the map, and after thinking hard for about half an hour, Ban Hu returned. Princess Duoqian and eight Eagle's Nest knights also followed.

"Lord Wang, if we can help, just say it!" Duoqian looked very happy.

"The Dark Lord and the Tiger King are likely to attack the junction of Xiyang City and Cold Yang City in order to cut off the connection with the north, including the Northern Li Kingdom and the Great Wall, and then head south to the capital. The Dark Lord is not a human thing, I can't deal with it, I can't do without your help! The lion king was very relieved to see Duoqian's happiness.

"Seems to be a princess who knows everything!" The Lion King thought happily.

So, the Lion King left all his infantry at the Imperial Tomb and left enough supplies to last for a month. The rest of the people, cavalry, craftsmen, including Ban Hu and his party, also followed the Lion King in the direction of Xiyang City.

Although it was a sunny March day, the biting cold wind was still blowing in the face. Ban Hu and the Lion King walked at the front of the team, and the Lion King decided to arrange Ban Hu and his own cavalry in the designated position, and prepare for defense, and then the Lion King went to the capital to win the support of the imperial court as originally planned.

There is no danger between Lengyang City and Xiyang City, the Lion King thought of the temple in Wandong Mountain, as long as he can defend the temple perimeter, the main force of the Tiger King will not be able to attack the capital with all his strength, but the Lion King will not think that the Dark Demon King has already been there.

The lion king's cavalry was well-trained, but there were only about 200 people, and the remaining 100 or so migrant workers did not have enough weapons and equipment, which made the lion king distressed. The dozens of flying donkeys left behind by Xilong all knew Banhu, so the lion king persuaded the flying donkeys to obey Banhu's direct command. In this way, Ban Hu can have enough strength to deal with the Dark Lord.

It was the season when the grass grew and the warbler flew, and the warbler sang and danced, but the official road from Lengyang City to Xiyang City looked bleak and deserted. The Flying Donkeys stood alert in the sky, and the vast meadow moor was obscured by a gray mist, restricting their vision.

Duo Qian and Xia Mei rode horses behind the Lion King and Ban Hu, wearing the light cavalry hunting costumes provided by the Lion King, looking heroic and heroic. Xiao Luo and Xiao Yi rode horses on both sides of Duoqian and Xia Mei to protect the safety of Princess Duoqian, and Duoqian's two bears had already turned into bears and ran into the vast field to have fun! Not casually, of course, but looking for clues about the Dark Lord.

"Lord Wang, the Tiger King should be your student! How much do you know about him? Ban Hu asked.

"Former students." The lion king replied with a long sigh, his eyes full of sorrow.

"As far as I know, the Tiger King back then was a pillar of the imperial court, who had been helping the imperial court through the northeast and won the hearts of the people, how could he suddenly rebel? There must be something strange about this! Lord, how long has it been since you met the Tiger King? Ban Hu asked the lion king suspiciously.

"We haven't been in touch since he rebelled, whether I believe him or not, but his rebellion is a fact!" The Lion King replied with a disappointed face, "For a dark thing like the Dark Lord, I will never allow my subordinates to be implicated!" Because these shady things will lead people to the devil's path. ”

Ban Hu nodded, deeply convinced.

The group walked along Jingchi Road to a hill that was not too high, which was one of the few chokepoints on Jingchi Road between Lengyang City and Xiyang City. The hill is covered with a pine forest, which is a good way to hide the soldiers and horses. What's more, there is also a spring at the back of the hill, which is enough to solve the draft problem of Ban Hu and his group. There are also several simple walls made of ashlar on the hills, which are convenient for better defense.

The Lion King decided to let Ban Hu lead his troops to camp here, and arranged for dozens of cavalry to go to the temple in the northwest to find out where the situation was, confirm that the Dark Lord and the Tiger King did not occupy the place, and then return to the capital as soon as possible to move the rescue troops. Xilong has mentioned Ban Hu's junior brother in front of the lion king many times, and he is still relieved that Ban Hu is sticking here.

"Lord Wang, you must be careful when you return to the capital! I'm afraid that the capital may also have the Dark Lord's minions! "Ban Hu has traversed the east and west to do business, crossed the long Silk Road several times, and has an extraordinary insight into these evil forces. At this time, Xia Mei was directing migrant workers to dig trenches and strengthen the city walls. Considering that this place is not far from the Imperial Tomb, once something happens to the Imperial Tomb, using Xia Mei's flying ability, he can quickly reinforce it, but the Lion King still insists that Xia Mei stay.

"Rest assured, with our protection, the prince is absolutely safe!" Xiao Yi patted his chest and said.

"Of course!" Xiao Luo waved the Neptune fork and followed.

Knowing that they could follow the Lion King to the capital, Xiaoluo and Xiaoyi were overjoyed.

"While you protect the Lion Lord, you must listen to the teachings of the Prince, and don't forget to learn some human knowledge from the Prince!" Duo Qian, who was following behind Ban Hu, seemed to instruct her two children, "Xiaoyi, you have to take care of Xiaoluo!" ”

"Don't worry, Your Highness Princess!" Xiao Yi swore by it.

"Hehe, don't worry, the two of them are the elven shows of the Elf City! I will teach them well about this human world! ”

Hearing this, Ban Hu was extremely happy.

"Quick! Xiaoluo, Xiaoyi, worship the Lion King as a teacher! "It is the supreme honor to be able to worship a generation of lion kings as teachers. The famous Tiger King, Snake King, and Peacock King are the master disciples of the Lion King!

The Lion King laughed, "I didn't expect that I could receive such an excellent student at such an age, this is my blessing for three lives!" ”

After a brief apprenticeship ceremony, the Lion King, Xiao Luo, and Xiao Yi each rode a flying donkey and headed in the direction of Lengyang City. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, the three of them wore the clothes of the common people and dressed up as the family of three generations, including ancestors, children and grandchildren, but visiting relatives in the capital. The lion king is naturally the appearance of his grandfather, and Xiaoyi and Xiaoluo are naturally dressed as father and son, which makes Xiaoluo depressed for a long time.

"Why do you want me to be the son of the first child! I'm probably older than a little older in the sea! ”
