180 To each his own hand
"But I still think it's too dangerous. Second Sister Su said worriedly.
"That's the only way to do it at the moment. Feeling the concerned eyes of several people, Ye Haotian's heart warmed, and he said with a smile: "I promise, there will be no accidents." Don't forget, I'm the son of the demon god, and the 300,000 demon troops on Seven Star Island haven't been able to trap me, so even a few people want to arrest me, do you think it's possible? I don't have your spirit of seeing death as home, I'm afraid of death. ”
Seeing that everyone's faces gradually eased, Ye Haotian continued: "Don't waste any more time, now, we need to make a detailed escape plan to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”
......
......
The night covered the land, the sparse starlight and moonlight sprinkled in the sky, and the demon military camp outside the quicksand city gradually calmed down, but the air still had a strong smell of blood.
The two groups of demon soldiers crossed in front of the barracks and continued to patrol along the perimeter of the barracks, their tattered armor emitting a dim and gloomy glow against the firelight, their faces under the torches showed no expression, and there was no communication between them, and their heavy and consistent steps faded away in the night.
Beside several huge fires that were burning in several places, dozens of Blood Skull warriors gathered together, silently gnawing on the corpses brought back from under the Quicksand City, making a clicking sound, and the bones piled up next to them were like a small mountain.
In a clearing not far from the fire, more than a dozen Blood Skull warriors were repairing the siege ladders that had been destroyed during the day, and the sound of metal clashing was extremely harsh in the empty night.
The red-robed animal tamer sat alone in front of a tent, staring at the quicksand city in the distance with a few fires in the distance, his expression extremely sad, and there were traces of crying on his face. In the camp of the demon army, the status of animal trainers is extremely noble, and their status is the status of the domesticated beasts that they have established. Now the loss of the only two giant beasts in one day is a fatal blow to the red-clothed beast tamer, the loss of the giant beast, the status of the beast tamer will plummet, all the preferential treatment will be lost, not to mention, there will be a danger of life at any time. Those Blood Skull warriors who had been bullied by him on a daily basis would never give up this opportunity for revenge.
Thinking of this, the red-clothed beast tamer showed a desperate look on his face again, he took the bone flute from his waist, put his hands trembling in front of his lips, and the low and mournful sound of the flute began to circulate in the sky above the demon camp.
Zi Chuanhong in the big tent of the Chinese army heard the sound of the flute, snorted in annoyance, slammed the bones in his hand to the ground, and said angrily: "Eat and eat, you know how to eat, didn't you say that you can take down the son of the demon god alone? Now, not to mention the loss of two giant beasts in vain, but also the burial of more than 4,000 warriors of our clan, who will bear this responsibility!"
The clicking sound in the corner of the big tent stopped, and Ying Jiu threw away a bloody arm in his hand and sucked his fingers, his pale face was slightly red, and a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
"Ye Haotian's strength is much stronger than when he was on the island, I didn't expect him to be desperate, although the power generated by the collision of the demon soul burning and the divine blood is strong, but the backlash is greater, although he escaped by luck this time, there will be no such luck next time, I have already thought of a way to deal with him. ”
The red-haired demon general behind Zichuan Hong snorted coldly and said, "If the five of us had besieged the son of the demon god with all our might, I'm afraid we would have taken it long ago, why did we fall to this point?
"That's it, what else are you talking about restraining that bead and preventing that purple-eyed silver tiger, didn't it come out either?" another black-faced demon general with golden earrings chimed in, ignoring Ying Jiu's gradually unkind eyes.
Zichuan Hong didn't stop it, staring at Ying Jiu coldly.
Ying Jiu walked forward to the middle of the big tent, looked at Zichuan Hong and the three demon generals, laughed twice, and said, "If the purple-eyed silver tiger is really in the city, can you still live until now?"
Zichuan Hongleng paused for a moment, thinking that the bead bead that had not yet fully transformed not only blocked the full force of the four of them, but also hit himself hard, his face suddenly became ugly, if he added a purple-eyed silver tiger...... He didn't dare to think about it, looked at the other three demon generals, and found that several people also had palpitations on their faces.
Ying Jiu reached out and stroked a long black wound the size of a palm on his lower abdomen, which was left by Ye Haotian's long black knife with true blood flames attached. At this time, the wound was slowly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the nearby burned skin had fallen off, and the exposed pink flesh was constantly wriggling, with the occasional flash of silver light or two.
Licking his lips with satisfaction, Ying Jiu said: "Ye Haotian has been transformed by the Demon Soul, and he already has a system of mixed blood between humans and demons, and he has divine blood in his body, and every time he uses the power of the Demon Soul, he has to pay a heavy price. He was seriously injured by me today, and his strength will be greatly reduced, and next time, I will definitely take him down. ”
Zichuan Hong looked at Ying Jiu's increasingly hideous face, the muscles of his cheeks shook a few times involuntarily, and said in a deep voice, "Next time? When is the next time?" ”
"It won't be long. Ying Jiu narrowed his eyes, looked at the night outside the big tent, and said, "When I heal from my injuries, he will definitely not be able to run, two or three days at most." ”
As soon as Ying Jiu's words were finished, a big black bird suddenly flew in from outside the account and landed on the table in front of Zichuan Hong.
"It's Shin Hawk. ”
Several demon generals glanced at each other and surrounded them.
......
......
As the night deepened, a pale yellow animal skin map was spread on the large square table in the city lord's mansion hall, Ye Haotian and Qibo, as well as several family masters from Quicksand City, gathered around the table and discussed in a low voice.
It is not easy to escape under the pursuit of the Blood Skull Legion, and any possible omissions must be taken into account, after all, it is related to the lives of thousands of people in the city.
The first thing to determine in order to escape is the route.
Opinions on this point were quickly unanimous. Quicksand City has two gates, north and south, and the demon army is camped outside the north gate at this time, judging from the current situation, the south gate should be the best escape route, but who can guarantee that Ying Jiu will not divide the army into two ways and also deploy heavy troops in the south of the city? Twenty miles of retreat represents just an attitude, if Ye Haotian deliberately requires that the demon army must withdraw outside the north gate, it will arouse the suspicion of the other party.
All that remains is the east and west directions. The hidden city gate that was not detected by the demon army was Ye Haotian's greatest reliance, even if Ying Jiu was on guard, he would never send heavy troops to intercept it in these two directions.
A wasteland to the west, with the Blood Skull Legion's base camp to the west, was quickly eliminated and there was only one way left to go - to the east.
Once you've decided on your direction, the next thing to consider is your destination. After some discussion, everyone took an underground karst cave two hundred miles east of Quicksand City as the end point of their escape.
The cave is complex and easy to hide, and although there are many unknown dangers inside, the biggest advantage is that there is a source of water, and in the desert, water is life.
What's more, on the way to the underground cave, you have to pass through a swamp, where the poisonous snakes and insects and the unpredictable black water pit can just become an obstacle for the demon cavalry to chase, and the only route that can be secretly passed is in the hands of Xu Changqing.
The distance of two hundred miles has the advantage of twenty miles first, even if it is caught up by the demon army, it is believed that it has entered the swamp area, and the possibility of escape will be greatly improved.
