As soon as Zhan Wuxian entered the house, he saw that Zhan Chi was sleeping soundly, his little face was as red as a small apple, delicate and delicate. Zhan Wuxian couldn't help but lower his head and kissed the little face, Zhan Chi's little head turned, his little hands swayed, and he looked like he was about to wake up.

Mo Wuya stretched out his hand and slapped Zhan Wuxian, and said angrily: "Don't tease her, she just fell asleep." Then he patted Zhanchi's little buttocks with his hand and hummed a sleep tune to show his mother's love.

Zhan Wuxian smiled and stepped aside.

Mo Wuya said softly: "He came here just now. ”

Zhan Wuxian was also taken aback, but also said softly: "Just now in Gong Cai's Mansion, I have heard that he is also here. The two were silent, and Zhan Wuxian continued: "What is the matter with him here?" ”

"He heard that Chi'er was born, so he came to see it. I think there's something strange about him, though. ”

He still can't let go of the past. Don't talk about that, I heard that the Chengying Sword is in his hand. ”

"Where did he get it?" Mo Wuya was a little surprised.

"I don't know, I hope he can control this sword of the Demon Dao." Zhan Wuxian said silently, I don't know if he said it to his wife or to himself.

At this time, it was getting late, and from the Luoxia Garden, in the valley in the distance, the sunset was red, as if it was on fire, illuminating the entire mountain stream. On a high platform in the valley, Xiong Qiji asked Fei Wuji: "How is it?" ”

"It has been refined, as long as the son gives an order, he can go out of the mountain to meet the enemy."

"Okay, haha...... There is no hurry. I estimate that it will be time to strike the enemy in a few days, let those Jianghu rangers of Qi and Jin take the lead first, and see how powerful the corpse beast pawns of the enemy are. ”

"Cai Gong Gao sees." Fei Wuji also laughed.

"When it comes to the Divine Flames, you must be foolproof. When the time comes, you will dominate the Central Plains and dominate the world, and I will make you a prince. ”

"Thank you, Gong Cai." Fei Wuji hurriedly knelt down: "I also hope that Cai Gong can give me that thing." ”

"That thing is something that only the King of Chu is qualified to decide."

"Fei Wuji will help Cai Gong become the king of Chu."

"Haha......" Xiong's laughter echoed through the valley.

At this time, Xiong Qiji's guards came to report: "The two sons and Doctor Chao Wu have an invitation and say that there is something important. ”

"I'll go over here." Xiong Qi said: "Mr. Fei, that matter depends on you." ”

"Cai Gong rest assured."

Xiong Qiji said goodbye and rushed to Chaowu's mansion. I saw Chao Wu sitting motionless, Zi Gan and Zi Hui walking back and forth in the hall, rubbing their hands and muttering to themselves: "What can I do, what can I do?" The form looked extremely panicked and anxious. When they saw Xiong Qiji coming in, it was like seeing a life-saving straw, so they took his hand and said, "Brother, what can I do about this?" ”

Xiong Qiji asked, "What made the two brothers so panicked?" ”

Zihui said: "Don't you understand that Lingji fled back to Yingdu, and she is bound to tell the eldest brother about our rebellion, and you don't know the temper of the eldest brother, and you will definitely send troops to crusade against us." ”

Zigan continued: "And the kid who defeated the enemy, cruel and tyrannical, better than his father, if he catches us, we will die, let's run away." ”

Xiong Qiji smiled slightly, this matter had long been expected by him, this must have been Chao Wu who analyzed the stakes with them, and the two brothers were suddenly afraid. Then he asked, "Doctor Chaowu, what do you think?" ”

Chao Wu said: "The arrow is on the string, and you have to send it, how can there be any reason to escape." Besides, where can we flee? This is our home. Therefore, it is better for us to take the initiative to attack Yingdu and fight the Chu army in advance, so that there is still a chance to win. Chao Wu said this just because he was originally from Cai Guo. After Cai was destroyed by Chu, he has always been dissatisfied with the king of Chu and wants to restore the country. This time, the union of the three brothers who abandoned the disease was planned by Chao Wu. Take advantage of the desire of the three brothers to restore the kingdom for him.

Xiong Qiji knew Chao Wu's thoughts for a long time, and he wished that the civil turmoil in Chu would rise sharply, so as to profit from it. So he said, "Although the enemy is powerful, we need not be afraid of him." We have 2,000 chariots, tens of thousands of heroes of the Qi, Jin, and Qin Kingdoms, and many heroes from the rivers and lakes to help. All we have to do is wait here and kill him without leaving a piece of armor behind. As long as the enemy is defeated, the capture of Yingdu will be at your fingertips. At that time, Cai Guo's restoration will not be a matter of my words. Do you say yes, two royal brothers? ”

Zigan and Zihui have always trusted their younger brother, and when they heard Xiong Qiji say that they could defeat the enemy and capture Yingdu, their initial worries immediately disappeared. Hearing Xiong Qiji's question, he said in a panic: "Yes, yes." It turns out that brother, you have already made a plan in your chest, and you have already prepared, Brother Wang, I will rest assured. Hey...... When the time comes, I will become the king, and I will reward you heavily. Well...... Well, there is also Chaowu, after I ascend the throne, I can restore the Cai State, how about it? The expression on his face was smug. Zihui also said: "Brother, you are the king of Chu, I am not Ling Yin, and my brother is not a doctor." Haha......" The voice was sharp and harsh.

He thanked Wu and said, "Thank you, three sons." The reason why he said this and didn't Xie Zigan alone was because he knew that no matter his talent, Xiong Qiji's strength was stronger than his two brothers, and only Xiong Qiji, who could become the king of Chu in the end, had this strength. At the current critical moment, it is best for the three brothers to unite as one, so that they can gather strength and defeat the enemy. He thanked the three brothers at the same time, no one can be offended, but the smart people know it, and the stupid people are smug.

Xiong Qiji could naturally hear the taste, he smiled coldly, and said: "The great enemy is coming, I will go and ask all the heroes of the rivers and lakes to discuss the strategy of defending against the enemy and say goodbye." Zigan hurriedly said: "It's all up to the brothers......" Before the word "arrangement" could be spoken, Xiong Qiji had already slammed the door and walked out.

Xiong Qiji returned to Cai's mansion, full of anger and anger.

Gongzi Xiong Jian asked, "Why is my father-in-law so angry?" ”

Xiong Qi said angrily: "Zigan, Zihui are timid and afraid of things, there are no soldiers, no merit, and they are older than me, and they regard themselves as the king of Chu, which is really angry with me." ”

"Why should my father-in-law be angry with those two! The heroes of the Central Plains are all here to save your face, and without you, they are nothing. Aren't you the one who says their life or death? ”

After listening to this, Xiong Qiji nodded with a smile: "That's what I said." However, the top priority is how to deal with the enemy, the corpse beast pawn is not an ordinary army, and it is not easy to fight. ”

"What then?"

"Tomorrow, you go and inform the heroes of the Central Plains, and go to the Council Hall of Duke Cai's Mansion to discuss the strategy of defending against the enemy."

"Whoa!" Gongzi Xiong Jian retreated.

Late autumn twilight snow, sparse forests, not far from the hillside, withered grass. A man dressed in a blue coat and a gray coat, with a pair of black court boots under his feet, led a group of white horses, blending in with the surrounding snow, looking from a distance, like a moving pear tree. On horseback sat a beautiful woman, wearing a small pale green cotton jacket and a pale red cloak, holding a small baby in her hand, wrapped in a small red quilt, like the stamen of a huge pear blossom. A gust of wind blew, as if wrapped in the scent of flowers.

This pair of men and women is Zhan Wuxian and Mo Wuya, and the baby is their son Zhan Chi. On this day, Mo Wuya felt inexplicably bored in his heart, and Zhan Wuxian saw it at a glance, so he took his wife and children out to visit the mountains and wilderness to relieve his worries. Unconsciously, I walked out of dozens of miles, only to see that this place is empty and boundless, a glance is boundless, and there are occasional strange rocks and lonely trees, which are the suburbs outside the south of Caicheng.

At this time, the sky gradually became overcast, and flakes of snow fell. Mo Wuya took out a wool blanket and covered it with Zhanchi. Zhan Wuxian saw that the weather was cold and the wind was cold, so he took off his coat and draped it on Mo Wuya's body. Mo Wuya turned his head and smiled affectionately at Zhan Wuxian, all emotions were in this, and there was no need to say another word.

"It's snowing." Zhan Wuxian said: "It's cold, let's go back." Mo Wuya nodded. Zhan Wuxian led the horse back, looking into the distance, there was an inexplicable depression in his heart, as if something unknown was going to happen. The moment he led the horse back, he suddenly saw a few black dots in the sky on the distant hillside moving again, extremely fast. After a while, the black dots grew larger, and when you looked closely, there were fifty or sixty of them. Zhan Wuxian said: "It's not good, lead the horse and run back." ”

"Ya'er, be careful, the corpse beast pawn has appeared." After Zhan Wuxian finished speaking, he picked up a few stones on the ground.

"Hmm!" Mo Wuya agreed, hugged Zhanchi tightly with one hand, and touched the dragon tendon slash on his waist with the other.

After a short time, five corpse beasts approached. Zhan Wuxian ran with the reins of the horse with his right hand, and threw his left hand backwards, five stones, like flying lightning, instantly arrived in front of the five corpse beasts. Listening to the sound of "bang", the five stones turned into five phantom warriors, fists and feet together, knocking over the corpse beast pawns. Without waiting for the corpse beast pawn to get up, the phantom warrior jumped up and threw himself on the ground, tangling with the corpse beast pawn. Suddenly, more than a dozen tiger eaters flew down from the sky. The phantom warrior was caught off guard, and was bitten by the neck of the tiger eater, flipped to the ground, and scuffled with the tiger eater. At this time, several corpse beast pawns rushed from behind, each carrying a large bag on their backs and carrying black knives, and came to the side of the phantom warriors. The phantom warrior is entangled by the tiger eater and cannot be separated. The corpse beast pawn raised his sword and cut off the head of the phantom warrior. The phantom warrior fell to the ground and turned back into a pebble. Then, the corpse beast pawn in the pocket opened the mouth of the bag, and the tiger eaters got into it one after another.

It turned out that this was an advance team of corpse beasts, and before leaving, the hidden tiger-eating beasts equipped them with more than a dozen tiger-eating beasts for murder.

The corpse beast soldiers who arrived after him did not stop, and continued to pursue Zhan Wuxian and Mo Wuya.

Because Mo Wuya was holding Zhan Chi in his arms, he was unable to move, and the speed of the white horse was not as fast as that of the corpse beast. It didn't take long for the corpse beast pawn to catch up with Zhan Wuxian and his wife.

The corpse beast pawn that was running at the front jumped high and pounced on Zhan Wuxian. Zhan Wuxian heard the sound of the wind approaching, and returned to his hand with a sword, a cold light flashed, and the corpse beast pawn was split in half. Seeing that several corpse beast pawns behind him had also jumped up and pounced, Zhan Wuxian used force under his feet, instantly stepped on a large stone, and the whole foot did not sink into the ground, and then kicked out with one foot, dozens of gravel shot at the corpse beast pawn, and at the same time, Zhan Wuxian reached out and grabbed a few gravels in mid-air and threw them. The stone transformed into a phantom warrior in mid-air, and fought with the corpse beast pawn behind him.

At this time, Zhan Wuxian heard Mo Wuya's exclamation. Looking back, it turned out that more than a dozen corpse beast soldiers were besieging Mo Wuya. One of the corpse beast pawns overturned the white horse that Mo Wuya was riding, and smashed the horse's head with a single punch. Mo Wuya jumped off the horse before the white horse fell to the ground, and used the dragon tendon slash to protect Zhan Chi while attacking the corpse beast pawn with the dragon tendon slashing sword head. I saw that the dragon tendon slash turned into a sword and shield from time to time, like a silkworm cocoon, covering Zhan Chi to resist the attack of the corpse beast pawn, and after a while, it turned into a snake robbery, assassinating the corpse beast pawn.

Seeing this, Zhan Wuxian hurried over and stood side by side with Mo Wuya back to back to protect Zhan Chi. At this time, there were more and more corpse beast pawns, and Zhan Wuxian conjured five phantom warrior pawns to protect the three of them and resist the attack of the corpse beast pawns. Due to the use of the Phantom Warrior and its loss of true qi, Zhan Wuxian had to be distracted to protect Mo Wuya's mother and son, and his skills could not be exerted to the extreme, and the power of the illusionary warrior could not be fully exerted.

Even so, the corpse beast pawn couldn't easily approach Zhan Wuxian and his wife for a while, and could only try to attack on the periphery, either being assassinated by Mo Wuya's dragon tendon slash, or being killed by Zhan Wuxian's seven-star dragon yuan sword qi, or being repelled by the phantom warrior's long sword. At this time, Zhan Wuxian and his wife couldn't get rid of the corpse beast pawn, and the corpse beast pawn couldn't help Zhan Wuxian, and the two sides entered a stalemate.

"Li'er, are you okay?" Zhan asked with concern.

"Well, I'm fine. What about you, shirt? Mo Wuya also asked with concern.

"I'm fine, but I was suddenly attacked by these monsters, and I was a little caught off guard for a while."

"It's me and Chi'er who are dragging you down."

"You're talking stupid again. You and Chi'er are what I want to protect with my life, where is the drag, it is my bounden duty to protect you. How is Chi'er, why didn't you hear his voice? ”

Mo Wuya smiled affectionately, with tears of happiness and emotion in his eyes, and said, "Our Chi'er is sleeping soundly." ”

Zhan Wuxian also smiled, and said in his heart: Your mother and I are working hard here, but you are sleeping a lot, and it is enviable to think about it. Zhan Wuxian said: "Ya'er, I'll block the corpse beast pawn, you find a gap and go first." ”

"No, let's go together."

"These corpse beasts can't help me, I can get rid of them with my escape technique. After a while, you use the dragon tendon to protect you and Chi'er and go first, don't fall back to Xia Beiyuan, and go back to Caicheng directly, where it is safer. Tell Cai Gong that the corpse beast pawns are about to attack the city in a big way, and let them take precautions as soon as possible. ”

Mo Wuya knew that with his unsympathetic kung fu, no matter how many corpse beast pawns could help him. Even if he is able to escape from it, he can come and go freely in the army. Now he is trapped because he refuses to abandon his wife and children. Mo Wuya thought of this and promised: "Okay!" ”

The corpse beast pawns gathered more and more, and the few corpse beast pawns with their back pockets had also arrived. The phantom warriors who stood in the way of Zhan Wuxian's couple were also surrounded by dozens of corpse beast pawns, and at their feet, the corpses of the corpse beast pawns had fallen several layers.

Zhan Wuxian protected Mo Wuya's mother and son and fought and retreated. After only exiting more than two miles, a few corpse beast pawns chased after him, only to see the two corpse beast pawns in front of him jump up violently and pounce on him. Zhan Wuxian turned around with a sword, and the two corpse beasts were cut into four by the sword qi of the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword in mid-air. Immediately behind, five tiger-eating beasts also flew over, as fast as lightning, brushing Zhan Wushirt's cheeks, and passed by in an instant. A drop of the body fluid of the tiger eating beast stayed in the air, and not far from the corner of Zhan Wuxian's eyes, from the drop of body fluid, he saw that there were more and more corpse beasts around him. Zhan Wuxian said: It's not good, the tiger-eating beast must be going for Ya'er and Chi'er. Without thinking much about it, Zhan Wuxian's fingers stretched out, touched the body fluids of the tiger-eating beast in mid-air, and then used the water escape in the escape technique. I saw Zhan Wuxian's figure flickering, like a line of light, and instantly appeared next to the tiger-eating beast, and the sword light flashed, splitting the tiger-eating beast in half. At this time, the tiger-eating beast was only an inch away from Mo Wuya.

However, the other four tiger eaters had already flown close behind Mo Wuya. Mo Wuya's ears heard the sound of the wind behind him, and he didn't have time to turn back, protecting Zhanchi, and the dragon tendons slashed up, like a black snake, flying behind Mo Wuya, aiming at a tiger-eating beast and slamming downward, penetrating the tiger-eating beast, submerging into the soil, and then like a flying dragon, it slammed upward, penetrating another tiger-eating beast, left and right, chasing another tiger-eating beast, and in the blink of an eye, killing the tiger-eating beast. At this time, he saw that the last tiger-eating beast was about to fly over the iron net sword wall made of dragon tendons and bite Mo Wuya's shoulder. Suddenly, the tiger-eating beast stopped in mid-air, its mouth full of fangs, and it had already touched Mo Wuya's clothes. The tiger-eating beast did not move, and when it looked at it again, the tiger-eating beast's body had been entangled by the dragon's tendons, like a large-mouthed gourd, and it had lost its breath.

"Ya'er, are you alright?" At this time, there was the voice of Zhan Wuxian.

Mo Wuya turned around, and was just about to turn around, when he suddenly felt that his left hand suddenly loosened, and when he looked, at some point, a tiger-eating beast bit Zhanchi's swaddling clothes and dragged him out. Mo Wuya exclaimed: "Chi'er! "If you pull your legs, you have to chase. Suddenly, two corpse beast pawns appeared in front of her, carrying black pockets on their backs, and the tiger eaters were flying out of the bags. Mo Wuya's mind was suddenly flustered, and with one punch and kick, he knocked down the two corpse beast pawns, and went to chase the tiger beast. At that time, the tiger-eating beast flew out not far away, as long as Mo Wuya chased and stabbed with the dragon tendon slash, with the power of the dragon tendon slash, the length changed, and he would definitely be able to stab the tiger-eating beast to death and save Zhanchi. It's just that Mo Wuya was so eager to save his son that he forgot to use the dragon tendon slash, and only knew how to run to chase it. In the middle of the road, another corpse beast came out to stop it, slowing down, and seeing the tiger eater flying farther and farther. Seeing this, Zhan Wuxian was also like Mo Wuya, and went straight to chase without using the escape technique, and was constantly blocked by the corpse beast pawns in the middle of the way.

Seeing the tiger eater flying farther and farther with Zhan Chi in his mouth, Zhan Wuxian and Mo Wuya were at a loss, and when they were very anxious, they only heard a feather arrow sound, and a flying arrow was shooting through the left eye of the tiger eater beast and nailed to the trunk of a tree. The Tiger Eater was killed instantly, and let go, Zhan Chi immediately fell, and then several Tiger Eaters flew around to bite Zhan Chi. Several feathered arrows flew by, killing them in mid-air. At this time, a corpse beast pawn chased after him, leaped up, and pounced on Zhanchi. The feather arrows flew again and shot at the corpse beast pawn, because the corpse beast pawn weighed hundreds of catties, had leather armor, and the bones were as hard as stone. Hit by an arrow, it did not slow down and continued to leap forward. After hitting several swords in a row, the corpse beast pawn slowed down, but still pounced on Zhanchi. Seeing that Zhan Chi was about to be killed, suddenly a figure flashed, knocked away the corpse beast pawn, killed it with a sword, and turned around to catch Zhan Chi who was falling.

It turned out that at this extremely critical moment, Zhan Wuxian killed the corpse beast pawn who surrounded him and rescued Mo Wuya, and then used the escape technique to rush to Zhan Chi before the corpse beast pawn caught Zhan Chi, killed the corpse beast pawn, and saved Zhan Chi.

At this time, Mo Wuya had also arrived, and Zhan Wuxian sent Zhan Chi to Mo Wuya's arms. Mo Wuya saw that the sheepskin wrapped around Zhan Chi was stained with blood, so he quickly opened it and saw that Zhan Chi was still asleep, his little face was as red as an apple, and he squirmed his small mouth from time to time, looking like he had nothing to do with himself. Mo Wuya saw it before he breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.

Suddenly hearing the sound of horses' hooves, Gongzi Xiong Jian, Yang Shooting Night, Fox Tu, Tian Yong, Baili Benlei and others arrived to kill the remaining corpse beasts. Zhan Wuxian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that reinforcements had arrived, and then saw that Mo Wuya's mother and son were safe and sound, and the hanging heart fell calmly.

"Teacher, you can make it easy for me to find it!" When others were still killing corpse beasts, Gongzi Xiong Jian ran over to find Zhan Wuxian: "My father-in-law sent me to Luoxia Villa to find you, and I have something important to discuss." I went, but I couldn't find you, and I was scolded by my father-in-law when I went back, so I asked me to find it again. I asked a few knights to look for it. We found the outside of the city, and heard the sound of fighting in the woods from a distance, and when we came to see, it turned out to be the teacher fighting the corpse beast pawns, and the tiger eater. As soon as I gave the order to rush over, the arrow of the night shot out, faster than my mouth. Those arrows just now were raised and shot at night, aren't they?"

Zhan Wuxian glanced at Gongzi Xiong Jian, and it happened that Yang Jiuye also rushed over, so he said to Yang Jiuye: "Thank you Mr. Yang for coming to the rescue in time, Xi, I am grateful." The archery of the Yang clan is really unique in the world. ”

Yang Shooting Night also saluted: "Mr. has won the award." If you talk about martial arts in the world, Mr. is the leader today. Madame and Childe weren't hurt, were they? ”

"Sir's archery is like a god, and everything is fine with Neiko and Chi'er."

"There is a sudden corpse beast pawn here, and it is estimated that the son's defeat of the enemy is also coming soon."

"I didn't expect him to come so quickly."

"To deal with the boy's defeat of the enemy, we still have to rely on Mr., in the future, we will fight side by side, and we will definitely assist Mr. with all our strength at night."

……

Gongzi Xiong Jianxin said: "You raise a night of shooting, you don't usually say a word to me, why do you talk so much when you see my teacher." ”

At this time, the others had already killed all the remaining corpse beasts, and they rushed over to ask questions.

Zhan Wuxian thanked them one by one and said, "It seems that the action has begun, these corpse beast pawns must be his vanguard small force." ”

Gongzi Xiong Jiandao: "The enemy is coming, what should we do?" ”

Fox Tu said: "Needless to say, if he dares to come, he will kill him." It must have been the mother-in-law who could play with fire who overheard our conversation and went back to report the letter. ”

Tian Yong said: "Yes! If the prince dares to come, we will work together to kill him, leaving no piece of armor behind. Get a few corpse beast pawns, and dare to confront our tens of thousands of iron horsemen, I don't want to live. ”

Everyone laughed after hearing this, yesterday he and Fox Tu were still tense, and today they sang and harmonized. For the sake of profit, people are fickle and forgetful. At the beginning of the defense of the country, they were defeated by the enemy, but today they have forgotten all about it.

Yang Jie Ye said: "Luoxia Villa is on the outskirts of Caicheng, and it is the most vulnerable to the attack of corpse beasts. Cai Gong wants to talk to us about important matters, why don't we go back to Cai Cheng first? ”

Gongzi Xiong Jian said: "Yes, yes, it's too dangerous outside the city, the teacher lives in Caicheng, and I will take care of the place where he lives." ”

Zhan Wuxian said: "Okay! The corpse beast pawn is fierce, and it is estimated that there will be remnants nearby, so let's go back to Caicheng first to think about it in the long run. ”

Everyone agreed to return to Caicheng together.
