Volume 1 Above the Temple Chapter 117 Feeding the Tiger on the Prairie (II)
Just as Shen Tu was looking at it alone and not knowing what to think, a general suddenly ran over, holding a small bamboo tube in both hands, and said respectfully: "General, Hou Ye Feiying has sent a message." ”
Shen Tu turned around and took the bamboo tube, took out the paper raft inside, and after taking a look at it, a strange smile appeared on his face.
General Pi looked at Shen Tu with a puzzled expression, but he didn't dare to ask directly.
"It seems that we don't have a chance to see the sacred mountains and Tianchi that have been passed down by the grassland population." Shen Tu handed the paper raft in his hand to the general and spoke.
It's just that there is not much regret in his tone, but there is a more fiery light in his eyes.
After taking the paper raft and taking a look, the general showed a happy look on his face, glanced at Shen Tu carelessly, and found that Shen Tu seemed to be in a good mood, so he asked carelessly: "General, but do you want to order the class teacher now?" ”
Shen Tu nodded and said, "Since the righteous father has an order, he naturally has to be a class teacher." ”
The general was delighted and said, "The last general is going to give the order now?" ”
"Now?" Shen Tu glanced at General Pei with a strange expression.
The general Shen Tu looked at him like this, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
Shen Tu ignored him and continued to ask, "How is Shan Yu and his golden cavalry now?" ”
"According to today's scout's report, we are less than fifty miles away from them, and they have eaten twenty more of their companions today, and now their number is less than three hundred......" General replied quickly.
"Oh, less than three hundred?" Shen Tu smiled and said to himself: "It seems that the order of the righteous father came earlier, if it is another month later, we don't need to do it, I am afraid that they will have to eat up their own people." ”
It turned out that they had been using human flesh as rations all along, and they were all companions' meat, so it was no wonder that when they ate, they seemed so difficult to swallow, just repeating the action of chewing mechanically.
"That's exactly what the general said."
The general echoed and continued to play with the taste: "It's just that I don't know what human flesh tastes like?" They've been eating for almost two months. ”
When Shen Tu heard this, he glanced at the general thoughtfully, and said lightly: "It's not as delicious as beef and mutton." ”
This general originally only intended to ridicule this group of grassland barbarians, but after listening to Shen Tu's words, his face suddenly became grim, and he glanced at Shen Tu cautiously, and his heart was already overturned: "He is actually saying that there is no beef and mutton delicious, if you haven't eaten it, how can you tell its taste?" ”
Shen Tu didn't notice his general's expression, and lightly ordered: "Then chase them and kill them all!" After killing them, give the order to the class teacher. ”
"Yes." The general answered and hurriedly retired.
……
Originally, if it developed under normal circumstances, a group of them alone would have been caught up by the Beiyu army the next day, and then slaughtered. However, when Shentu learned the next day that Shan Yu had encountered the holy mountain and Tianchi in the "mirage" yesterday, he made an exception and gave them an extra ten days to deliberately let them flee again. After encountering the pursuit of the north, a group of people in Shan Yu firmly believed in the mysterious legend, thinking that this was because the Beiyu army was afraid that they would find the holy mountain and Tianchi, so they would kill them all, so they actually accelerated their own speed...... Finally, at noon on the tenth day, they arrived at the legendary holy mountain and Tianchi as they wished.
Although it is now the twilight of spring, but the ice and snow still exist on the snowy mountain in front of you, under the background of the blue sky, it seems to be magnificent, beautiful and upright, and the colorful sunlight is sprinkled on the snow-capped mountain, so that the white snow also presents colorful colors, which looks crystal clear and transparent, dazzling...... And the lake at the foot of the snow-capped mountain is even more secluded green and flat like a mirror, like a whole piece of flawless jade, it looks exquisitely clear, verdant, when the blue sky, white clouds, green mountains and green grass are reflected in it, it looks more pure than the original color.
Not to mention anything else, the scenery here alone is rare, but it is really like the fairyland on earth described in the play.
The group of them had already been captured by the scene in front of them, and they only knew where to stand, looking at them stupidly.
"Hahahaha...... Found it, we finally found it, and the steppe god really didn't abandon us......" Shan Yu screamed loudly.
Shan Yu's scream instantly broke the silence here, and the golden cavalry, who only knew how to be stunned by this scene just now, also reacted one by one at this time, showing ecstasy, and even knelt on the ground with excitement and cried.
They are the most noble and invincible golden cavalry on the grassland, and they are the invincible spokesmen on the grassland, even after encountering the most elite blood phoenix banner of Beiyu in the battle of Mangdang Mountain a year ago, they did not bargain, but in that battle they also severely damaged the border army of Beiyu. Therefore, their momentum on the grassland has not been affected in the slightest, after all, if they dare to fight hard with the "Death's Scythe ~ Blood Phoenix Banner", they already have enough gimmicks to brag about. But I never thought that such an invincible cavalry across the grassland would be chased by the Beiyu army in his homeland this time like a lost dog, and even the courage to fight head-on was no longer there in the previous battles, so that they had to use the meat of their own kind as rations...... If it weren't for the belief in that mysterious legend in their hearts, I'm afraid they wouldn't have been able to hold on to it for a while.
And now, they finally saw this legendary holy land, the heavenly pool, that is to say, the mysterious legend is true, as long as they have bathed in the water of this heavenly pool, they can get the blessing of the grassland god to become invulnerable, they can continue to write their own undefeated myth on the grassland, and even surpass the past, the achievement of new legends, after all, they are the first people to see the miracle with their own eyes, and they will eventually become the messengers of the grassland god in the world as in the legend...... At this time, this group of golden cavalry has been immersed in their own worlds, their faith has never failed them after all, the grassland god has never given up on them after all, at this moment, their spirit that was exhausted by the Beiyu army actually returned.
"Long live the steppe god!" I don't know who was the first to shout, and then the momentum of this group of people shook the sky, and they shouted loudly one by one.
Just as they were cheering, singing and dancing, suddenly the grassland ground trembled slightly, and then a black torrent suddenly appeared on the ground level in the distance.
The sky is blue, the mountains are white, the water is green, and the grass is green...... This is like a good landscape painting, and this black torrent that suddenly appears is like someone using a very thick charcoal pen to add a thick and thick black line to this landscape painting.
The initiator of this "line" is Shen Tu, and this black torrent is composed of Beiyu iron horsemen wearing black armor, and countless Beiyu black iron horses are connected one after another, forming this thick and thick black line.
Although the sudden appearance of thick lines ruined the beauty of the whole painting, Shen Tu didn't care, although the scenery was beautiful, he was here for the scenery.
Seeing that the Beiyu Iron Cavalry, which was several times larger than his own, suddenly appeared, Shan Yu and his group did not have the fear and jealousy they had in the past, and did not start to run away again, but jumped into the blue water lake next to them one after another.
And Shen Tu did not take advantage of this opportunity to let the cavalry rush over, but when there was still some distance from this group of golden cavalry, he ordered to restrain the war horse, stood quietly aside, and watched their every move with interest.
After a while, the golden cavalry climbed ashore one by one, wet, and even Shan Yu and Kuo Kedi also went down to soak for a while, and they stood on the shore, and the water on their bodies kept dripping to the ground, like water dogs...... However, they obviously did not think so, but their faces were resolute, and their eyes exuded a fanatical color.
Shan Yu pointed at the Beiyu army with his finger, and said to the golden cavalry: "Soldiers, now that each of us has bathed in the water of Tianchi, we will all be blessed by the grassland god as in the legend and become invulnerable...... This group of ignorant Beiyu troops is a gift from the grassland gods, let us kill them all, drink their blood, eat their flesh, and avenge the death of our compatriots. ”
"Revenge! Revenge! ”
This group of golden cavalry responded enthusiastically, looking at the Beiyu Iron Cavalry one by one, as if looking at a lamb to be slaughtered...... They seem to have forgotten that they were the lamb all along.
As the battle horn sounded, the golden cavalry rushed towards the Beiyu Iron Cavalry one by one without fear of death, but they can no longer be called cavalry, because they don't even have war horses, their war horses have already been killed by them as rations before, and after ten days, their numbers have actually decreased somewhat, there is no doubt that those reduced numbers are also used by them as rations, they are just holding scimitars high at the moment, wearing broken armor.
Seeing the grassland cavalry rushing over without fear of death, the Beiyu Iron Cavalry still did not have the slightest panic, and there was not even a shock in their eyes, although I don't know why they suddenly became abnormal? But in the eyes of Sergeant Beiyu, their attack was suicide, just like an egg hitting a stone, and as a "stone", they were naturally uninterested in facing the egg that would break.
When the group of golden cavalry rushed to the front, Shen Tu faintly spit out the word "kill".
As soon as he gave the order, the Beiyu Iron Cavalry, who was good at riding and shooting, raised his bow and crossbow high, and with the sound of the buzzing and vibrating bowstrings, countless feathered arrows overwhelmingly attacked the attacking golden cavalry.
In the face of the attack of feather arrows, this group of golden cavalry did not dodge or dodge, and even the speed of the sprint did not slow down in the slightest, so they faced the feather arrows, as if in their opinion, this group of feather arrows could not hurt them at all.
But the answer is not at all what they imagined.
With a snort, a sharp feather arrow hit a golden cavalryman who was running rapidly, and after the arrow pierced through his breastplate, it burrowed into his flesh fiercely, and the blood quickly seeped out and stained the armor red, the golden cavalry was shot by the feather arrow, he did not rush to dodge, but looked at the feather arrow inserted in his body with an incredible face, and after reaching out and wiping the blood that flowed out, he never had the strength to run again, as if he had been pulled off his backbone, and he was paralyzed on the ground, He looked back at the Holy Mountain and Tianchi behind him with difficulty, and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to ask what all this was for? Why are they not invulnerable after bathing in the water of Tianchi? However, in the end, he didn't ask this sentence, because another feather arrow hit him in the back of the head, cutting off his vitality.
And at the same time, other people have gone through everything he has experienced, just like him, and the mortal body has not become invulnerable after all...... After a round of arrow rain, this group of only remaining golden cavalry was shot and killed at one time, even their Golden Horde and Kuo Kedi were the same, and they died under the feather arrows of the Beiyu Iron Cavalry without accident, and they were also like this group of ordinary golden cavalry, before they died, they silently opened their mouths, and their eyes stared blankly at the big snow mountains and Bishui Lake in the distance.
……
……
"Cut off the heads of Shan Yu and the invincible ones and bring them back." Shen Tu calmly gave the order, and almost without even looking at Shan Yu, he beat his horse and crossed the group of corpses and came to the Bishui Lake at the foot of the snow-capped mountain.
With an expressionless face, he found Shan Yu and Kuo among the corpses, pulled out his waist knife and cleanly cut off the heads of the two of them, and tied them to the horseback, the two heads opened their eyes wide, just facing the group of corpses on the ground...... The so-called "death without turning a blind eye" is probably like this.
Shen Tu turned over and dismounted, looked at the big snow mountain and the blue water lake, and seemed to understand why this group of golden cavalry was not afraid of death just now.
"Idiot."
Shen Tu muttered disdainfully and untied his belt...... After sprinkling all the urine that had been held for a long time into their legendary Tianchi, Shen Tu shook it twice and ordered the class teacher.
