Chapter 574: The Taste of the Great Tribulation
When I think of fire, of course, I think of wine.
Moreover, many of the drinks that were brought out were spirits, and if they were poured on the fire, it would be like pouring oil on the fire, and the fire would burst into flames in an instant, and the burning wood would shoot everywhere.
The four Holy Hand Butchers all came up with this idea, and it was actually the easiest idea to come up with.
The difficulty lies in how to "add fuel to the fire" covertly, if they are caught by the guards, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"I pretended to be drunk and accidentally dropped the bottle into the fire." The Holy Hand Butcher whispered.
"One bonfire is not enough, you have to have several, and it is better if all the bonfires are out of control at the same time." Captain Jin blinked and looked at the dozen or so bonfires around him, imagining the majestic scene of the fire spreading.
There were many campfires throughout the camp, but there were only a few dance scenes, and many more were scattered around the periphery.
"You, you, you, and you. All of them. ”
Before the four of them could figure out how to divide the labor and how to solve the problem of throwing wine bottles into dozens of bonfires at the same time, Elder Miao Ba, who had been standing beside the previous holy woman, came over and pointed at the four of them and shouted.
"Miao Ba, what do you mean by this? We didn't offend you. Captain Jin looked at Miao Ba with an angry face in puzzlement, and expressed his dissatisfaction with his arrogance.
The Holy Hand Butcher sneered: "Lao Miao, did you eat too much wine, or did you take the wrong medicine, and you actually yelled at our brothers to drink five or six." ”
Miao Ba sneered: "It's not that I'm looking for your brothers, it's our Holy Maiden Highness who has been invited." ”
"Your Highness?"
The four of them were stunned, they didn't know and couldn't guess which tendon of the White Lotus Sect Holy Maiden was wrong, how could they call them over, and they actually put down the shelf to invite them, what was the situation?
The four of them muttered in their hearts, and walked to the table where the previous saintess was sitting, not knowing what to say.
"I know you want to make trouble, and I didn't want to care about you, but today the third lady and princess are here, you just stay and don't want to make any trouble, otherwise I will throw you directly into the fire." The incumbent saintess said lightly, and from her tone, she could not hear any emotional fluctuations.
"We ......," said the Holy Hand Butcher, who couldn't go on, and he didn't know how the Holy Maiden had guessed that they were trying to make trouble.
"Originally, the road went to one side of the sky, and we have always been well water and not river water, but today you brothers must give me this face. After the third lady and princess leave the scene, you can make any trouble as you want, I will not interfere. The indifferent expression of the previous saint seemed to be just gossiping.
The four Holy Hand Butchers, look at me, I look at you, their faces are as ugly as eating a dead child.
It seems that there is no way to start today, at least there is no drama to sing at the ball, otherwise the saint may have skewered them with an iron hammer and roasted them directly on the bonfire.
They know too well about the methods of the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect, and they are afraid because they understand. Most people think that the saint is supreme and pure, and she will not do too cruel things.
That's wrong, completely wrong.
Annoying the Holy Maiden, the end will definitely be worse than offending the White Lotus Sect Leader Zhao Quan, not a question of whether he dies or not, but how ugly he will die.
"Dogs take rats and meddle in their affairs." Jiu Niang, who was mixed in with a group of guards, snorted coldly.
She had already targeted the four Holy Hand Butchers, and she knew that they wanted to make trouble, and the cat was waiting for them there, cutting off their heads at the moment they made a move, which was enjoyable, but unfortunately this opportunity was disturbed by the previous saintess.
These four people thought that they were secretive, and it was impossible for anyone to discover their plan, but they did not use the secret method of communicating with each other, but their voices were extremely low, thinking that there was no master next to them and there was no security crisis.
As a result, they were wrong, and all the conversations were heard clearly by Jiu Niang, not to mention the previous saintess who was not far away.
The previous saint didn't want to care about these messy things, but the third lady is here, once the scene is out of control, it may bring unexpected risks to the third lady, and she will never allow this kind of thing to happen.
"In the air, I smell the catastrophe, and even if I don't move, you won't be able to protect yourselves. I'd advise a few of you not to lose your life for some petty profit, that's a joke. The inaugural saint added a faint sentence.
"Hmph, pretending to be a ghost." Jiu Niang knew that she had been discovered by the previous saintess, so she had to retreat in a huff.
She didn't care at all, she was angry that the four prey that had already arrived were intercepted by the previous saint in a blink of an eye.
The four Holy Hand Butchers were lucky, they didn't know that they had just walked through the ghost gate, and they were only a stone's throw away from death.
Although the martial arts of the three butchers are all good, if they fight alone, no one will be worse than Jiu Niang, but there are thousands of brocade guards around, as well as Song Zhe and others to assist, and the four of them can't go through a few moves before they can fall to the ground.
"The smell of the Apocalypse?"
The four Holy Hand Butchers didn't understand what it meant, and even the elders like Miao Ba were stunned, what did the Holy Maiden mean by this?
The Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect has a special identity in the sect, responsible for speculating and predicting the fate and luck of the White Lotus Sect, so it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a prophet.
The saint has extremely keen senses and excellent predictability, so that what she says is like a certainty, and no one dares to disbelieve it.
"Don't ask me, I don't know where the catastrophe started or what kind of catastrophe it is, I just suddenly felt something in my heart." The inaugural saintess looked at the night sky in the distance, and felt that the smell coming from there was the breath of dangerous calamity.
The place she looked at was the direction they had returned, where the gloomy aura was gathering and there would be great calamity.
And I heard the words of the Holy Maiden.
Although the saint's voice was not raised deliberately, many people heard it clearly, and perhaps her original intention was to tell the people and warn them of the coming catastrophe.
"What's wrong?" The third lady asked.
She didn't pay attention to what the saint said, but devoted herself to teaching and dancing, but suddenly she didn't move like a wooden man.
"Her Highness seems to be talking about a great calamity." Besides.
"Big sister, whose big sister?" The third lady was confused.
"It's not the eldest sister, it's the catastrophe, the catastrophe of the calamity."
"What do you mean?"
The third lady really doesn't know what a calamity is, and I've never heard of it before.
"I don't know, but she was right." Besides.
At this time, everyone else couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then they should continue to dance, no one understands the catastrophe or something, even if the sky collapses, there is still a big one.
Of course, there are many people who don't believe in prophecy, not to mention the surrounding scene of peace, the atmosphere of the grand sun, and the protection of the army on the periphery, where something big will happen.
Wuliangha's captain Diemur Hua's heart suddenly stopped, Yu Du has been gone for more than a day, and now there is no reply, it is said that he should have met with the second prince and the seventh princess sent by the clan now, why don't you give a message?
When Yu Du left, Diemur Hua repeatedly explained to a few guards that once the prince of Yu Du met with the people sent by the clan, or where to camp that night, he must send someone to send a letter back.
After all, Yu Du was the Khan's favorite prince, and he had been wronged here, and he didn't want any more twists and turns.
"What's the matter, man, do you believe her nonsense?" Umeng, who was dancing with a maid, asked.
These two clans did not believe in the prophecy of the White Lotus Sect, they felt that it was all the leaders of the White Lotus Sect who were lying to confuse the public, and the White Lotus Sect did this very often, and every time they called on the followers to rebel, they had to first throw out a sensational prophecy, which frightened the followers not to follow the rebellion.
"I don't believe her nonsense, but I'm a little worried about our little ancestor."
Diemur walked back to the long table where the wine and food were placed, took a bowl of wine and drank it, and then ate two strings of meat skewers handed by the guards.
"What is there to worry about, what else can happen on the road? Now that the prairie is calm, they will not be kicked by the rabbit's legs or injured by the horns of the wild goats. Umeng was sweating all over, and he drank more wine, so he said more.
Diemur smiled bitterly, he also knew that what Wumeng said was right, the guards equipped in Yudu were the best in the clan, the horses, armor, swords and arrows were also the best, and the combat power was higher than that of the ordinary Praetorian Guards, even if there was no danger in encountering one or two thousand rogues, and no rogue who was not long-sighted dared to attack Prince Yudu's team.
"Don't worry about the little ancestor who is gone, or worry about the second prince who will come soon, I heard that he is also an admirer of the Jade Princess. It's not that you haven't seen the Jade Princess's attitude towards that Qincha, everyone can see that your second prince is not blind, and he can't see it, and it will be a mess if he doesn't get it right then. Umeng let out a sigh as he turned his mouth in the direction of Princess Nuyu.
At this moment, the Jade Princess is staring at it without turning her eyes.
As a warrior of the Warat tribe, he also felt ashamed of Princess Jade's behavior, but he couldn't persuade him to do this kind of thing. Persuasion is still secondary, and it is very likely that this is a beauty trick used by Khan.
However, now it seems that the beauty plan has been completely out of shape, but it seems to be a gift plan, and if it continues like this, the final result is likely to be to lose the wife and break the army.
"You said that the princes of my clan are not bad, why can't Princess Jade look down on any of them?" Diemur looked at the infatuated jade princess and had no choice but to smile helplessly.
The second prince and the third prince of Wuliangha are all fanatical admirers of the Jade Princess, if Yu Du is immature, he is still like a child, but the second prince Sa Man is a famous warrior on the grassland, and he is also extremely fierce and can tear the brown bear by hand, which is like this little Qincha's face is full of creamy little life, why would the Jade Princess like a man with this temperament?
"Maybe it's fate. I can't explain it. ”
"Fate, that's all Han nonsense, which of us really believes this?"
"If it's not because of that, then what do you say it's because of?" Umeng asked rhetorically.
Of course, Diemur flowers can't say, the grassland encourages men and women to interact freely and fall in love freely, but when they get married, they still have to take out a sufficient number of cattle and sheep, otherwise they can socialize, and it is absolutely impossible to marry home.
The dowry on the grassland is very simple, it is a cow, sheep or camel, but camels are rare. As long as there are enough cattle and sheep, you can marry back the girl you like.
