In the clearing, many soldiers were already surrounding an iron cage wrapped in black curtain, and the sound of low roars and the neighing of fierce beasts could be heard from inside.

Qianxue and the other three women were also present, and they were curious about what kind of beast was inside.

When the soldiers saw Jing Ge and Yang Wei coming over, they made way for a passage.

Uncle Cheng lifted the veil, revealing the true face of the demon.

It was a humanoid monster, two or three heads taller than normal. He was covered in black fur and had a wide and thick paw, with only three fingers, each with sharp claws that shimmered with a cold sheen. The green eyes beat like ghost fire, and half of the face was covered with hair, looking like a human being, and looking fierce and ugly.

He kept roaring, slicing through the cage made of fine iron with his sharp claws, bringing out strings of sparks.

"Demons?" There are warlords who are amazed.

"That's right, this is a race of the demon race, with low intelligence, fierce nature, and is in a medium position among the many races of the demon race." Uncle Cheng said that the demons are collectively referred to, and they are divided into different types.

"Except for the royal clan, the rest of the demon clans don't know how to cultivate, but they are born extremely strong warriors. For example, this one, its strength and speed are even better than those of our human race's two or three rank martial artists. Uncle Cheng continued.

"There are at least a million demons like this, and now they are gathered outside the Great Wall, for some reason, they are still increasing, and the demons seem to want to use the strength of the whole clan to capture the Great Wall." In the past two or three months, he has gone deep into the barren land of the north, collected a lot of information, and even risked capturing a few demons alive.

Jing Ge looked at the rampaging demons in the cage, even if he was surrounded by thousands of soldiers, he did not show his fear, and his perception was dull and bloodthirsty.

Such creatures have very poor teamwork skills, but they are very strong in individual combat, and the elite warriors such as the Northwest Legion may need two or three people to work together to deal with it. Jing Ge quickly made a judgment in his heart.

Jing Ge looked around, and many of the onlookers were afraid.

"Ladies and gentlemen, three hundred years ago, our ancestors fought bloody battles against such creatures, and finally drove them out of the Great Wall of the North, bringing peace to our Central Plains. They have already been defeated by our Terrans once, so why be afraid? Jing Ge said loudly, his face calm.

"Release it, who would dare to come forward and kill it?" Jing Ge said loudly.

The general looked at his men in silence, and no one said anything.

Qianxue frowned, don't you dare to do this? She was just about to step forward, when Yujue and Yun'er happened to reach out at the same time and grabbed her left and right.

Yu Jue quickly took her hand back, and Yun'er shook her head slightly, signaling her not to make a move.

Seeing the two of them coincident and reaching out to stop her at the same time, she was deeply shocked, and her heart was hurt by ten thousand points, and she felt that her IQ was not at the same level as these two people.

They had long seen Jing Ge's intentions.

Jing Ge just wanted to dispel the fear of the soldiers, let them know that the demon clan was not invincible, and ordinary soldiers could kill it.

No matter how fierce this demon clan is, how can it be the opponent of the generals of the grandmaster realm. It was pointless for the generals to make a move, and those soldiers still felt that they were invincible.

In the end, Jing Ge chose a soldier who asked for his life and released the demon clan. After a difficult fight, the soldier managed to kill the demon warrior after being wounded several times.

The scene erupted in cheers like a mountain, and sure enough, after seeing a brother with the same strength as himself kill that demon clan, the original fear disappeared.

Seeing such a scene, the generals present had a lot of admiration for Jing Ge in their hearts, and they really deserved to be the son of the generalissimo, which easily regained the confidence and fighting spirit of the soldiers.

Two days later, Jing Ge climbed the city wall of Yanmen Pass in the night with the afterglow and jumped down quietly.

Outside Yanmen Pass, it was originally the land of the Song Kingdom, and now it has become part of Xiliang.

Only very few people know that Jing Ge has entered the Xiliang Realm, he didn't bring Yu Jue, her strength is too weak, in the hinterland of Xiliang, if she encounters any danger, it is difficult to protect her. He also didn't tell Chiyuki that he no longer needed her protection.

The hundred-zhang high city wall is not an obstacle in front of the two people who have mastered the art of the sword, and Yun'er stepped on the guqin and fell like a fairy.

Even if she is only in the realm of four or five grades, she can fly through the air, and there is no need to consume true yuan, and everything she can think of is under control.

It was too ostentatious to walk in the air, but they still hid their tracks, crossed the border area of Xiliang and Daqin as quickly as possible, and entered the hinterland of the former Song Dynasty.

"The current Xiliang should be the largest country among all the countries." Jing Ge said that it had annexed the Song State, and its territory had surpassed that of Great Qin.

"Well, its capital is two or three thousand miles west of here, and for the convenience of management, they regard Handan as another center. I don't know if King Xiliang will be in Handan. Yun'er said that they didn't know much about Handan.

"It doesn't matter if we're here or not, we're just here for a bit of fun and we'll be fine." Jing Ge smiled and comforted her.

"I'm just a princess of a dead country, and I don't pose a threat to them, I'm just a little worried about you." Yun'er said, "No one would have thought that you were deeply supported by the Northwest Army, and Xiliang had probably also gotten the news, so if he knew that you were here, he would inevitably have thoughts." ”

"That's why we have to sneak out, there are also Uncle Cheng's spies here, and they will answer us if necessary." Jing Ge said with a smile.

The moonlight is bright tonight, and the snow reflects like day, and you can see it in the distance.

The country is broken by mountains and rivers, and this land that has been separated for 20 years looks no different from other places. However, the moment Yun'er stepped out of the Yanmen Pass, she clearly felt that there was an emotion spreading under the soil.

Her father was the monarch of the land.

Jing Ge can understand her feelings, what is more uncomfortable than the ruin of the country and the death of the family?

Jing Ge looked at the woman beside her who had been alone for more than ten years, and felt infinite pity in her heart.

He knew that she was longing for her hometown and had always wanted to come back to see her, so he did not hesitate to bring her back, even if she might encounter danger, he was not afraid at all.

As long as you want, I'll give it all.

The two soon entered the territory of the former Song Dynasty and wandered around a city.

"The folk customs here are simple, similar to Daqin." Jing Ge said that most of the people here are Song people, unlike the people in the Xiliang Desert.

From time to time, small groups of cavalry passed by on the road, wearing dark red armor, and their momentum was not weaker than that of the Northwest Army, but they did not disturb the people.

Jing Ge and Yun'er found a teahouse to sit down and talk to the person next to them.

"Big brother, you're from Song, right?"

"Song people? The Song kingdom perished, where are there any Song people. The old man looked at them.

"You're outsiders?" The tea guest asked rhetorically, seeing that they were dusty.

"That's right, we're Qi people." Jing Ge made it up casually.

"Why did the Qi people come here?"

"Alas! It's a long story, this is my fiancée, and we are both in love, but our elders don't agree with each other. I had to run here to make a living. Jing Ge said while holding Yun'er's hand.

"Oh, elopement." The tea guest looked like I knew it.

"yes, I'm going to settle here. I just don't know if I can eat here with a mouthful of food. ”

"It's still good here, as long as you are willing to work hard, you won't starve to death."

"Do you have a good deal with the old men of Xiliang? Will it bully us outsiders? Jing Ge asked pretending to be concerned, inquiring about the news he wanted to know.

"In the past, there would be some Xiliang people who bullied us Song people, but now there are a lot less. Especially in the past six months, the newly appointed minister of state has issued many new decrees, and we are treated the same as the original Xiliang people. The tea guest leaned over and said in a low voice.

At first, he was reluctant to admit that he was from Song, and he was wary of Jing Ge, but after chatting for a while, he became less vigilant.

"What decrees have been issued?"

"Reducing taxes, allocating arable land, re-establishing the law, and allowing free trade ......"

Jing Ge and Yun'er glanced at each other, these decrees are exactly the same as Shangguan Junyue's reforms, are they really the same as what the hero sees? The most important thing is to allow free buying and selling, which greatly stimulates the economy.

"Is that prime minister surnamed Zhuge again?" Jing Ge wanted to confirm.

"Seems to be." The tea guest replied.

"Do you know the Minister of Xiliang?" Yun'er was surprised.

Jing Ge nodded, "If there is no accident, it should be my cheap big brother, if he is a talented person, he will be a national minister as soon as he comes to Xiliang." ”

After the conquest of the Song Kingdom, Western Liang did not implement tyranny, but treated each other with a relaxed policy.

Bai Ze is well versed in the way of the people. If the Song people were to be oppressed, even if the royal family died, there would still be many people who would resist, holding high the banner of recovering the Song Dynasty. But as it is now, if you treat them leniently, few people will resist.

Human nature is like this, as long as there is a way to live, to live, they will not risk resisting. It doesn't matter who he sits in. Whether it's the King of Song or the King of Xiliang, who is kowtowing to isn't kowtowing?

Jing Ge thought, combined with what he saw and heard around him, Xiliang's national life was much better than that of Daqin, and the hard work and openness and inclusiveness of the Liang kings of the past dynasties made Xiliang stronger and stronger, and there were faint signs of strength and signs that swept the world.

On the other hand, since the first emperor, the emperor is not as good as the first, and the emperor is faint and treacherous, which makes Daqin into a miasma. If there were a few emperors who were fighting for strength, with the unique advantages of Great Qin, they would have already leveled the Liuhe Eight Wilderness and ruled the world.

Seeing the people here living and working in peace and contentment, the haze in Yun'er's heart dissipated a lot. Kind-hearted, she has no idea of revenge, she just wants to go back to her hometown to remember, and then find a place of peace.

After resting for a while, the two continued westward.

"Jingge, it seems that someone is following us?" Yun'er whispered, a little nervous.

"Leave them alone." Jing Ge had already found out, but he didn't care.

"Isn't it from Xiliang?"

"It shouldn't be, this is Xiliang's territory, if it's really them, there's no need to sneakily follow. Most of them made a fair move. Jing Ge guessed that the two people following behind him deliberately concealed their whereabouts and were masters.

When Jing Ge and Yun'er settled in an inn, they also followed, men and women in their forties and fifties.

Their eyes fell on Yun'er, who was covered in thin veil.

"Girl, is there a piano behind you?" The woman who followed them stepped forward and spoke, her voice slightly hoarse.

The phoenix guqin was wrapped in black cloth by Yu Yun so as not to cause trouble, and now it seems to be seen.

She didn't answer, not knowing what the intention was.

"So what? Isn't it? Jing Ge said on the side.

"I feel the smell of the old people's utensils, and I need to ask about it." The woman said, staring at Yun'er.

"Sorry, we don't accept cross-examination." Yun'er said that she has a gentle temperament, but that doesn't mean she's willing to waste time being questioned by a stranger.

"Then don't blame me for being rude, please come back with me." The woman lowered her eyelids and said expressionlessly, and the man behind her also burst out with a strong breath.

"Auntie, you're getting older, let's go back and play cards, it's not good to fight with someone if you don't agree with each other." Jing Ge opened his mouth and said.

The woman's face became gloomy when she heard this.

"Yes, yes." Yun'er hurriedly echoed and agreed. "You two can't beat him, so don't fight him, let's go."

"Hmph." The woman snorted coldly, and didn't talk nonsense with the two of them, and slapped it with a palm, which was amazingly powerful.
