Xu Ji had nowhere to find Chi Youtou, thinking that Sangcheng was frequently war-torn and it should not be difficult to find an ownerless head, but he quickly changed his mind, feeling that the process was too simple and would attract suspicion.

As soon as he left the official gate, he said to the dozen or so soldiers who followed: "You go ahead. ”

The veteran was surprised: "It's you looking for Chi Youtou, how can you let us lead the way?" ”

Xu Ji smiled, "Who captured this city?" ”

"We."

"That's right, I didn't participate in the siege, so I can't sense the location of Chi You's head, it has to be you."

The soldiers gasped and looked at each other, but no one would move forward, but retreated.

The veteran believed in Xu Ji and Gong Fan, gritted his teeth, stepped forward and said, "Sure you can find it?" ”

"Please walk around, don't think about anything in your heart, when your heart is moving, it will be where Chi You's head is."

"How can it be considered a heartbeat?"

"You'll know for sure when the time comes."

The veteran felt very mysterious, nodded slowly, and was about to take a step, and then asked, "I won't be hurt, right?" ”

"The ancient gods, staring at the big and not the small, staring at the respect and not the lowly, I don't think it will specifically target a soldier."

The veteran nodded again, suddenly turned around, and pointed to a soldier: "Four babies, you go ahead." ”

Siwazi was a teenager with a yellow face and thin muscles, and he was startled when he heard his name being called, "Huh? Why me? ”

"I figured it out, that Chiyou is an ancient god, if you show miracles, you will definitely pay attention to people with high status, among us people, I am Brother Gong's deputy, it is more dangerous, you have the lowest status, and you will not be favored by Chiyou, so you go ahead."

"This ...... Can't you find a captive? ”

The veteran looked at Xu Ji, Xu Ji shook his head, and the veteran stepped forward to drag the four babies out, "Less nonsense, let you go ahead, you go ahead, when you eat dry rice, you rob more fiercely than anyone else, but when you use you, you hide back." ”

"Fifth Master Qiu, I haven't eaten dry rice for half a month...... Xiao Bing couldn't, so he had to walk ahead, so nervous that his body trembled slightly.

Xu Ji followed behind him and whispered, "Don't be afraid, don't think about it, do you know the path in the city?" ”

"I just know this piece, I haven't walked anywhere else."

"It's better that way. Rest assured, Chi You only has his head buried here, and he has no body and limbs, so he can't do anything other than attract military disasters. ”

The little soldier snorted twice, walked forward slowly, after passing two streets, he didn't find anything abnormal, he was a little bolder, and walked a little faster, "How long will it take?" ”

"It's hard to say, it could take a few nights." Xu Ji left himself some leeway.

Some of the later veterans remembered the words of the Divine Heavenly King, "You have to give Brother Gong an explanation before dawn." ”

"As much as possible." Xu Ji said with a smile, he had already thought of a rhetoric in his heart, and when the four children stopped near a temple or yamen, he said that it was a long time ago, and Chi You's head had turned into the dirt, and it was best to dig out something, which could be used to pierce and chisel the association, as long as there were no shrewd scholars in the army, he should be able to coax the past.

The soldier held a torch in his hand and was about to look back after walking a few steps, but the veteran was dissatisfied and reproached: "This Mr. Xu said, let you not think about anything, why do you always turn back?" We won't leave you behind. ”

"Then you talk more, let me listen."

The veteran shook his head, chatted with the other soldiers, and slowly became more afraid, and began to talk about trivial things: whether there was enough food for the winter, whether the clothes were sufficient, whether his wife and children ate too much, whose son was marrying a wife but could not take three buckets of grain as a dowry......

Xu Ji listened while walking, and suddenly wandered around with a group of villagers at night.

The four babies didn't know the way, and they didn't want to walk into the unfamiliar area, so they unconsciously went back to the official mansion, and after three times in a row, the veteran said: "Four boys, you are still not quiet, why do you always go back?" It's been a long time, and there's still a lot of place we haven't been to. ”

"I didn't mean it, I came back while walking, maybe Chi You's head was buried in the yamen."

The four babies said casually, but Xu Ji felt that this was an opportunity, so he stopped and let out a long hum.

The veteran immediately said, "Is it really here?" ”

Xu Ji didn't answer, stared at the yamen left and right, and said for a while: "Is this the center of Sangcheng?" ”

"yes." The veteran replied, and the faces of the soldiers changed.

Most of the official yamen are located in the middle of the city, but Xu Ji didn't mention it, and nodded, as if he had just discovered this fact.

The fourth baby took a few steps back, let Xu Ji to the front, and whispered: "Every time I walk here, I feel that my legs are weak, is it considered exciting?" ”

Xu Ji nodded again, still didn't speak, just watched, wanting to wait a little longer and then let the soldiers go into the house to dig a pit, what they could dig was nothing, even if it was a stone or a piece of wood.

As a result, before he could speak, a scream came from the house.

More than a dozen soldiers waited in fear for a long time, and were hit by this scream, and all of them were scattered, and ten people sat down on the spot, and the remaining few were not bolder, but were frozen.

Xu Ji was particularly surprised, but immediately understood, "Let's be a step late, and Chi Youtou will be powerful again." Then he ran to the house.

The soldiers were encouraged and got up to catch up, but kept a distance and did not dare to overtake Xu Ji.

In the courtyard, Gong Fan's soldiers were confronting the other three Heavenly Kings, and the screams were made by a small leader, who was Gong Fan's own nephew, and suddenly saw his uncle's head and exclaimed.

Du Gou raised his head with three hands, and was halfway through speaking, when he saw Xu Ji running over, he changed his words: "Brother Gong doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, and he has suffered retribution, I don't believe you ask him!" ”

Xu Ji stopped in the middle of the courtyard, found that everyone's eyes were looking at him, and then looked at the heads of the three heavenly kings and Gong Fan standing at the door of the official hall, sighed, and said, "Brother Gong really shouldn't let me look for Chi Youtou. ”

There were a lot of people in the courtyard, but they were silent, and the light from a few torches swayed in the wind, adding to the gloomy meaning, and even the three heavenly kings who knew what was going on muttered a little in their hearts.

Xu Ji turned around in place, "The ancient gods are angry, this city should not stay for a long time, so evacuate immediately and return to Hanzhou." ”

The previous words were fine, but the last four words angered Du Gousan, "Boy, why are you in charge?" Brother Gong is dead, and the incarnation army in the city belongs to the three of us, and it is up to us to decide when to leave and where to go. ”

Xu Ji arched his hand, "I can't ask for it, the city guards will change frequently, there are often bloody disasters, but ordinary soldiers have been stationed for a year or two, Du Tianwang is willing to take on this great responsibility, which is really a blessing for all the people in the city." ”

The person was killed by Du Gousan, and the head was cut off by Du Gousan, but he has always been skeptical about whether there is a Chi You head in the city, and when he heard Xu Ji say this, his face changed drastically, and he immediately said: "I didn't say that I wanted to be the guard here...... The King of Bitter Annihilation is highly respected, and it is only fitting that he will lead this city. ”

Mu Tianzi was originally a strategist, but he didn't want to steal the limelight, so he immediately shook his head and said: "The Heavenly King will perform divine punishment on his behalf and cut off the heads of unbelievers, the divine will is very obvious, that is, to let you lead Brother Gong's soldiers, you don't have to push, I and the Demon Heavenly King both support you." ”

"That's right, we support the Celestial King." Yan Peck Ying agreed with Mu Tianzi's statement.

Du Gou San was still carrying his head in his hand, and suddenly regretted it, glanced at the other two Heavenly Kings with hatred, and then turned his gaze to find someone to blame, "Xu Ji, you first found out that there was a Chi You head buried in the city, and the divine will should fall on you, I just did a small favor." You come to unify the army, temporarily unify the army, and after you leave Sangcheng, you will make arrangements. ”

Xu Ji also shook his head, "I am not a soldier of the Descending Army, I have no relationship with Brother Gong, and I am a prisoner of the three Heavenly Kings, how can I be qualified to lead his army?" It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate. ”

Mu Tianzi, the Heavenly King of Bitter Annihilation, also felt that it was inappropriate, and whispered: "Pointing to the Heavenly King, don't ......"

Du Gousan had already made up his mind, ignored Mu Tianzi, strode up to Xu Ji, stuffed his head into him, and said loudly: "Xu Ji is the son-in-law of the incarnation king, and with this layer, he has a relationship with all the incarnation army. Brother Gong was killed by me, and a voice urged me to do it, if I don't kill it, I can't do it. But the person really chosen by Chi You is Xu Ji, and he can only temporarily manage the city. ”

Xu Ji held his head in both hands, gently placed it on the ground, and shook his head after standing up, "King Du and I are both guests, how can we take care of the master's house?" Although Brother Gong is dead, his subordinates are all there, and there are people who have his own cronies who can lead on his behalf......"

Du Gousan raised his eyebrows and looked at Gong Fan's soldiers in the courtyard, "Which of you wants to take over Brother Gong's position?" ”

Everyone was already flustered, afraid of the ancient god of Chiyou, and afraid of the third heavenly king of Du Gou, hearing this question, no one dared to respond, Gong Fan's most trusted relatives and friends were all honest and thrifty hands, and they could live a hard life, but the unified army would not, and they would not dare, so not only did they not stand up, but they quietly retreated.

The veteran said at the back of the crowd: "Mr. Xu can be the leader, take everyone out of this city first." ”

Everyone nodded, and Du Gousan whispered to Xu Ji: "Don't refuse again, I haven't finished killing tonight." When we divide the grain in the city, it will be none of your business, and the three of us will be happy, and we may let you live. ”

Xu Ji looked embarrassed, and thought for a while before saying, "Okay, I'm only responsible for taking everyone out of Sangcheng, and as for the future, it's not up to me." ”

"That's what it sounds like." Du Gousan turned around and walked back.

There were two groups of people in the courtyard, one group was three personal soldiers brought by Tianlai, there were twenty or thirty people, and the other group was Gong Fan's subordinates, there were fifty or sixty people.

At the same time that Du Gousan turned around, Xu Ji also walked towards Gong Fan's subordinates.

Mu Tianzi still felt that it was inappropriate, but he didn't like to come out, so he said to Du Gousan, who came over: "Call Xu Ji back, don't let him ......"

Du Gousan waved his hand and said with a smile: "He is not familiar with life here, what tricks can he make?" If he doesn't obey, I can cut off his head at any time. ”

Xu Ji came to Gong Fan's soldiers and folded his hands, "Although it is only temporary, it is also the leader, are you willing to listen to my orders and leave this place as soon as possible with me?" ”

Everyone nodded.

Xu Ji beckoned to the veteran, "You were Brother Gong's deputy, and now you are also my deputy." ”

"Huh? I...... I ......"

"Chi You only cares about the main general, not the deputy."

"Oh, okay, I'll be the deputy."

"Who else is Brother Gong's henchman?"

The veteran immediately pointed out that the two of them, both of whom were close relatives of Gong Fan, were in a state of extreme panic, how to say it.

Xu Ji said to the three "deputies": "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, we will leave Sangcheng as soon as it is dawn, but before that, we have to avenge Brother Gong. ”

Gong Fan's subordinates were all inexplicable, and not far away, Du Gousan asked: "How can he take revenge on the person he killed?" ”

Mu Tianzi's face changed immediately, and he regretted it a lot.
