Chapter 415: Timid Distant Relative
There are dozens of corpses lying on the grassland, and ownerless war horses are cruising nearby, munching on the grass leisurely
The little marquis and the princess have already left, and I believe that it will not be long before the families of these dead bodies will come over to help them collect the bodies.
As the old saying goes, if you don't die, you won't die.
Gurus's station, he was barebacked, and on the table in front of him were the pierced Darkiron Mind Guards, and the Purple Gold Heart Guards that left a noticeable dent.
The witch doctor carefully bandaged him, and although he was protected by two layers of heart goggles, a large amount of blood had gathered under it, and he had to use a knife to bleed and then apply gold sore medicine.
He picked up the 10,000 spirits in front of him and sent them down his throat, the hot taste neutralizing the pain in his body.
At this time, a pale-faced one-armed man walked in from outside, it was Gu Lilen, who had escaped from the battle a while ago, he glanced at Gu Lus from the corner of his eye, and said: "Cousin, if you are injured, you still drink, it is not good for the healing of the injury." β
"Hmph, what qualifications do you have to talk about me?" Gurus put the bowl on the table and said, "Your injuries are worse than mine, don't you often drink secretly?"
"Hahaha, otherwise how can you and I be relatives?" Gu Lilen laughed, but there was no trace of boldness in his smile, and the contrived component was even more obvious.
He and Gurus are related to each other, but they are also the kind of relatives who can't be beaten with eight poles, the two families have not been in contact for at least decades, and after the defeat of Gullen, he became a lost dog, and when he had no choice, he remembered that there was such a cousin who was a bandit, leading hundreds of remnants to vote.
Of course, he looked down on the bandits from the bottom of his heart, so he didn't join the bandits, but joined the Pantheon Sect and became a low-level general.
"Don't kiss me, is it interesting?" Of course, Gurus knew that he looked down on him, and the reason why he took them was nothing more than to add strength to the Pantheistic Cult.
Gu Lilen smiled: "Cousin, if you meet any opponent, it will hurt you." β
He said angrily: "A big Chu boy with a milky smell, he is just a brother because he underestimated the enemy, so he suffered a small loss, you can rest assured, I will repay this revenge a hundred times!"
"Da Chu boy?" Gu Lilen frowned: "Is it a little white face who is less than twenty years old, holding a spear that is all black?"
"That's right, there's a very beautiful girl by my side. Gurus also frowned: "What, you know him?"
Gu Lilen gritted his teeth and snorted: "It's not just acquaintance, brother, I fell to this step of the field today, it is because of him! His name is Chen Xiao...... Wait, you said he had a pretty girl next to him?"
"That's right, although I couldn't see it up close, but it is not difficult to see from the figure of the girl Miaoman that she is a peerless beauty. Gurus nodded.
Gu Lilen sneered: "That must be my precious niece Medina, she actually followed him to the north, what are the two of them going to do?"
Gurus stretched out his frowning brows: "Whatever, this revenge is not avenged, and it is not a person, since you also have a grudge with them, cousin, why don't we join forces, how about it?"
Gu Lilen almost agreed, the only thought in his heart these days is revenge, but at the same time, reason told him that he can't act rashly, he has been defeated in the hands of Chen Xiao many times, and the rest of his belongings can't withstand another toss.
He shook his head and said, "My injuries are not healed yet, so let's take a long-term view of revenge." Cousin, that kid named Chen Xiao is very difficult to deal with, I advise you not to act rashly, so as not to lose your soldiers. β
With that, he turned and left the tent.
Gurus immediately scolded angrily: "Courageless person, how can I have a relative like you, and I don't even dare to take revenge! Lao Tzu really doubts, except for one arm, which thing in your crotch has also been cut off." β
Picking up the second bowl of spirits and drinking it down, he commanded in a loud voice, "Go and inquire about the couple at once." β
On the grassland, two horses were walking side by side, and Medina was talking to Xiao Chen about Pantheism.
It turned out that the Pantheistic Sect not only extended its tentacles to the bandits, but also sent so-called divine envoys to the Baishan tribe many times to promote their ideas and ask the Baishan people to believe in Pantheism.
In the beginning, it was Martina's father who received the divine envoy, but as his health deteriorated, the matter was gradually handed over to his brother Gullen.
"What do your people think of the Pantheistic Cult?" asked the little marquis.
"A small number of people believe it, but most people don't. The princess replied: "At the beginning, my father asked my grandfather, who was well-informed, and inquired about this matter from the Chu merchant group, and felt that since the Pantheistic Sect was designated as a cult by the Great Chu Dynasty, it must be mainly demagogic. β
The Pantheon Sect has a strength that cannot be underestimated on the grassland, far from being something that the little Baishan Clan can compete with, and one set on the surface and one behind the scenes is undoubtedly the best choice.
"And what is your uncle's attitude towards Pantheism?" he asked again.
"He, he's been working against his father all these years, and he will definitely oppose what his father agrees to, and he will definitely agree with what his father opposes. Medina said hatefully, "If he hadn't been a hindrance, how could there be a handful of people willing to believe in the Pantheistic Cult." β
It turned out to be like this, no wonder when I was in the border city, I had never heard the word "Pantheism", and I thought that they were beyond the reach of the whip, but I didn't expect that it was the old lord who was manipulating behind the scenes and stifling the living space of the Pantheistic Sect.
Medina looked into the distance and said, "We don't seem to have gotten out of the bandits' den yet, so the Gurus gang shouldn't give up, right?"
"The soldiers are coming, and the water is coming to cover the earth!"
The two of them continued on their way, studying for several days, and finally determined the purpose of their tripβthe largest frontier city in the north-central region, where not only barbarians lived, but also the more fierce Yi and Tartars.
Hidden in the city, the ninth generation of the little marquis knows the profound meaning of this sentence.
......
Two days later, the Hu bandit tribe, Tanma returned to the garrison, trotted all the way to the chief's tent, and shouted: "Report, the whereabouts of the man and woman have been found, and they have gone on the ancient tea horse road, and it seems that they are going to continue north." β
"Okay, go and inform my chief's cousin, that he may come and discuss with me about revenge. Gurus said excitedly, and immediately someone went down to inform Gullen.
The total number of men and horses on both sides is more than six hundred, no matter how strong the opponent is, it is impossible to fight against six hundred with the strength of one person, but it will only cause relatively large losses.
As for the losses, he had already figured out a way to let his cousin's men charge forward when the time came, and he would take charge of the plunder.
He is not afraid that his cousin will dare to refuse, who let Gu Lileng now hang the name of the Pantheistic Sect general, he is a higher status of the incense master, and it is a natural thing for the incense master to give orders to the general.
The subordinate quickly returned, and said breathlessly: "The leader is not good, your cousin Gu Lilen led the team out of the garrison, and their tent is empty. β
"What, that kid actually ran away?" Gurus's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "Bastard, white-eyed wolf! I don't even dare to take revenge, is he still a man? When did they leave, what are you eating, why don't you report it in time!"
