Chapter 35: Misfortune
"Whew~"
In the border city, Wang Tuofu is still standing quietly on the street, although the dark clouds outside the border city are already overwhelming at this moment, but he is still bathed in the residual moonlight on the street of the border city.
I saw that the darkness in his eyes was slowly fading, and at the same time, his originally waveless face gradually began to appear a little pale.
"Ahem~"
Just as everything was about to end, suddenly Wang Tofu's body trembled a little, and then he suddenly fell to one knee on the ground, and a feeling of weakness spread to his whole body in an instant.
"How...... How so?"
After a while, Wang Tofu's somewhat weak voice finally sounded, and I saw him cover his head with his hands again in trembling.
At this moment, no one would know that countless fragments of memory were constantly flashing in his mind.
When the speed of those pictures changed faster and faster, a sharp pain instantly crept into Wang Tofu's heart, and this scene was extremely similar to the reaction shown by Xizhu in Beicheng Mansion before.
"Roar~"
Finally, when that strange state reached a peak, Wang Tofu finally couldn't help but let out a low roar anymore.
As he struggled, he suddenly looked up at the full moon looming in the night sky, and what was even more incredible was that two fangs were peeking out of his mouth at this time.
His body was undergoing strange changes, but he didn't know why.
He didn't know that many years before he came into this world, a seed had been planted in his body!
"Huhuhu~"
When Wang Tofu's body was undergoing strange changes, suddenly the calm yin wind became rapid again, and even the momentum became bigger and bigger, and an inexplicable chill appeared again.
At this time, in the rapid wind, there were faint murmurs similar to before, as if someone was whispering in the wind.
When the manic night wind blew on Wang Tofu's trembling body, it gave him an extremely strange feeling, as if something was devouring his body little by little.
Invisibly, the black mist on his body that had not completely dissipated was peeled off little by little by this yin wind, and that feeling was like a hypnotic effect, making Wang Tofu's eyelids gradually become heavier and heavier.
A feeling of sleepiness made Wang Tofu almost forget all resistance, until all the black fog was completely peeled away, and a ghostly howl sounded in his ears again, and his whole body seemed to be bound by something, and the feeling became more and more intense, and finally made him have a terrible feeling of suffocation.
"Ugh!"
After a long time, Wang Tofu's sideburns were already wet with cold sweat, and his face became more and more terrifying.
At this time, Wang Tofu finally really felt that his body seemed to have been imprisoned by some strange force, and a feeling of being stared at suddenly appeared, it was like a pair of eyes, a pair of eyes that seemed to be everywhere.
Not only that, but as the strange aura continued to press towards Wang Tuofude's body, it seemed to turn into an invisible big hand outside his body, wanting to hold him in the palm of his hand, and a suction force gradually appeared, trying to capture him in the air!
But everything is by no means so simple, and just when that oppressive force was about to completely suppress Wang Tofu, his eyes were suddenly opened in a trembling tight.
At that moment, the moonlight had not dissipated, but Wang Tuofude's eyes were looking into the distance, and there seemed to be such a pair of terrifying eyes in the herdsmen army far away from the border city.
"Let me go!"
Wang Tofu's deep voice sounded, and then he didn't know where a huge force came from, as his words fell, the power that bound him seemed to be broken free by him in just an instant, and at the same time, the clarity in his eyes was soon swallowed up by a trace of black aura.
The trace of mania that had not subsided in the depths of his heart reappeared, and suddenly the black mist around him began to be unstable again, and the forms that were about to recondense around Wang Tuofu dissipated again, and the sound of the netherworld once again turned into an endless wail.
Just when Wang Tuofu instantly got rid of that invisible shackle, outside the border city, among the three figures surrounded by many figures sitting cross-legged, the old man's face gradually turned pale with his hand into the liquid of the stone basin.
I saw that his hands were constantly shaking in the liquid of the stone basin, and the other two old men behind him were trembling all over.
The clouds faded above them, and the moonlight began to clear again.
The murmurs of everyone around him continued.
"Poof!"
But suddenly, the old man in the middle of all of them suddenly opened his eyes, and at the same time, his right hand was jerked out of the liquid of the stone basin, and the whole person stumbled backwards.
In the process, the liquid in the stone basin was also splashed out, and then the figures sitting around it also opened their eyes, and almost everyone's faces became extremely ugly by this time.
Not only that, but the originally clear stone basin liquid gradually began to become turbid in a shaking!
"Magic ...... It's a demon!"
The old man's voice trembled a little, and at this time, along with the two old men behind him, their faces changed when they heard the word demon.
And when the expressions of the three old men changed drastically, the three of them once again looked up at the border city in the distance, looking at the city that had been besieged by the herdsmen's army, and at this time, there seemed to be an invisible black veil being slowly torn apart in the sky above the city.
At this time, the moonlight became brighter and brighter before the early morning!
"Boom!"
Under the Xiongguan of the city over there, there was a sudden violent explosion, followed by an even more violent shouting and killing sound, and the earth seemed to shake, and the gate of the Xiongguan was finally broken at this moment!
"After today, the king of Luo Kingdom is trying to live forever?"
On the black and oppressive earth, the figure standing in front of everyone on a big horse watching this crazy battle looked up at the eastern sky, the corners of his mouth showed a trace of arc again, and then he sneered and said: "I will tell you, everything is just empty talk!"
"Report!"
But at this moment, suddenly a black shadow rushed from a distance in the dark night.
"Say!"
The figure's eyes had been staring at the eastern sky, where a hint of fish white was about to appear, but he was not interrupted by the sudden sound.
When the man came to the figure on horseback, he quickly grabbed the reins of the horse and forcibly stopped the forward, then quickly turned over and dismounted, and came to the contemplative man with a gray cloth wrapped in both hands.
Seeing that this dream-like victory was about to be completed, the thoughts of the head of the herdsmen's army were finally pulled back, and then he casually reached out and took the gray cloth.
So in the deafening shouts in the distance, his gaze finally fell on the gray cloth.
There was no one behind him who spoke.
"The Great Priest!"
A man rode his horse to his side, as if waiting for his final order, so that they could break through the darkness in one fell swoop, for his blood had been completely infected by the charge of the shepherd warriors!
However, the great priest who was at the forefront looked at the gray cloth that didn't know what message it was transmitting, frowned, and then looked at the border city in the distance again and slowly closed his eyes.
After another moment, when he opened his eyes again, he slowly rode his horse and turned around, looking at the herdsmen behind him, looking at the pair of fighting eyes, looking at the longing in those eyes, but he only said one word.
"Retreat!"
Everyone's expressions suddenly froze at this moment, and all of them were stunned, watching the man in front of them say something that no one would think he would say, and just watched him ride away in another direction.
"No, the border city is broken, we can't stop at this critical time!"
At this time, one of the big men shouted loudly, but the others did not speak, as if waiting for the man to change his mind.
"Report! The Luo army suddenly appeared in the border city, and the warriors we attacked were beaten out again!"
At this moment, another person rushed out on horseback, and the great priest paused, and the gray cloth in his hand fell to the ground at once, and everyone turned to look at the border city again.
The whiteness of the sky is gradually becoming obvious, and the moonlight is almost completely gone.
The border city, the first Xiongguan in the southwest, seems to be a giant who is waking up from a dream at this moment, and is finally about to wake up completely!
"Woo~"
When this siege battle was in full swing, suddenly in the midst of the crazy herdsmen's army, a whistle sounded, and all the herdsmen's armies turned their heads and looked behind them when they heard this whistle.
In those eyes, which had been red, it seemed that they had finally regained a trace of consciousness under the effect of the sound of the whistle.
"Retreat!"
One shouted, followed by more people in the army.
It seems that the changes in the herdsmen's army have been discovered, and the panicked border city defenders are also stunned, and the herdsmen's army has chosen to withdraw at this critical time!
On the towering walls of the border city, Xu Hanfei stood there with the war knife in his hand to support himself, and at this moment there were also many soldiers from the border city standing behind him, they looked at the black and oppressive herdsman army outside the city, and everyone showed a solemn look on their faces.
When the whistle sounded, many people's faces showed puzzlement again.
"Why are they...... Withdrawn?"
A border city guard hesitated and said, because this battle is only now considered to be a real critical time, but the herdsmen chose to retreat at this time.
Xu Hanfei squinted his eyes and looked at the herdsmen's army in the distance, his eyes seemed to extend to the main force of the herdsmen's army far behind.
This war was just the beginning for him, and they had the upper hand last night!
Xizhu, who was also on the side, carefully hid on the city wall, looking at the black and oppressive army, his heart was already shocked to the extreme, this was the first time he had seen a real war.
But he didn't know that this was just the beginning for the rest of his life!
