"You have disappointed General Ben so much! General Ben asks you, why didn't you kill all the thieves with all your might, and why did you let them go? ”

In the Li Dao camp outside the Yanshi City, the general Li Dao sat in front of the handsome case, staring at the black-clothed man in front of him with his eyes.

The man in black was wrapped in a black robe, and almost his entire face was wrapped in it, and his facial features were missing. Except when Li Dao asks questions, he will carefully raise his two eyes, and then from the inside. Shooting out two sharp rays of light, he was almost silent, as if there was no sound.

However, when Li Dao was in a hurry, he sighed softly and said, "General! I had already said at the beginning that forcibly awakening the Gu Mother before the time was ripe would not only greatly reduce the power, but also bring about a backlash effect. As you can see, if I continue to cast the spell and continue to force it, I am afraid that not only the thieves will die, but even the soldiers of my battalion will be implicated. What's more, under the circumstances at that time, since the thieves had retreated on their own and our army had also won, wouldn't it be better to stop it in time? If you kill too much, I am afraid that it will violate the peace of heaven, and I hope the general will forgive me! ”

The man in black was right, if it weren't for the urgency of the situation at that time, he would definitely not forcibly wake up the Gu Mother to make the final fight.

This emergency, of course, was the raid that took place outside the Yanshi City during the day.

At that time, Pan Zhang, together with a group of Zhu Ling's men and horses, totaling more than 2,000 people, first broke through the small reinforcements sent by Zhang Ji and Guo Yan, and then formed a strong threat to Li Ji's army. Originally, if it was according to Chen Nuo's instructions in advance, once Zhu Ling and Pan Zhang's two troops met, they were not allowed to fight greedily, and they must retreat immediately. However, at that time, the situation was too favorable to Pan Zhang and the two, and the two of them were already red-eyed at that time, hoping to forcibly break through Li Dao's army in one go, if Li Dao could be captured alive, then the battle was not small, and he was reluctant to retreat for a while. At the moment of temptation, Chen Nuo's order had long been left behind.

Under the circumstances at that time, Li Dao was also frightened by the offensive of Pan Zhang and Zhu Ling, and he almost abandoned the camp and left. And at this moment, a soldier next to him woke up Li Dao, and when he talked about this man in black, Li Dao immediately woke up. He immediately issued an order to let people attract the man in black, and ordered the man in black to cast a spell not to reverse the current decline. The man in black didn't agree no matter what he said at that time, but only said that the time was not ripe, and persuaded Li Dao to withdraw the army first and join the two generals Zhang Ji and Guo Yan before making a long-term plan.

Li Dao was only bent on reversing the decline at that time, where was he willing to listen, seeing that he did not agree, he angrily pulled out a knife and put it on his neck, and said with great hatred: "If the thief didn't kill him, maybe I won't force you." But now that you have seen it, now that the thieves have attacked under your nose, if you don't make a move, do you want to see that our Chinese army camp is being served by thieves? ”

"The time is not ripe......"

Facing the blade that Li Dao added to his neck, the man in black was not afraid, and still threw out these words.

"None of these generals care! I'm just asking you, are you willing to cast a spell? ”

The blade in Li Wei's hand was cold, as if he wanted to drink blood, and even his eyes were boiling with murderous energy.

But the man in black still shook his head.

Li Wei was furious and roared again: "Don't forget, I raised you because you are valuable, if you don't use it for me, then don't blame me for abandoning it as soon as possible!" ”

“……”

The man in black stared at Li Dao with his eyes, until he found that Li Dao had no room to retreat from his words, so he nodded and agreed. People said that Li Dao respected witches and loved witches, so he was willing to stay in Li Dao's army and work hard for Li Dao. However, when he found that his so-called respect was only reflected in the basis of 'value', rather than respecting his own profession, he suddenly realized that no matter how beautiful he was, he would eventually be pulled down by him one day. And on this day, the man in black obviously did not want to see it.

The man in black climbed onto the high platform, slowly took out a delicate small drum from his sleeve, shook it slightly, and the two drumsticks tied to it struck with a bang.

Knock, knock, knock......

The sound of the drum goes from shallow to deep, from fine to coarse, from low to high, from low to sad, from decadent to heroic......

Li Wei couldn't understand these rhythms, the beads of sweat on his forehead were already rolling down, and his eyes were full of dissatisfaction. The reason why he didn't retreat for a while was because he put all his bets on the man in black in front of him. In his imagination, as long as there is a male witch who communicates with the gods, then no matter how many thieves there are, they are just a bunch of ants, which can be destroyed by their hands.

However, seeing that the thief army was about to break through his front army with a sharp momentum after breaking up the two support armies of Zhang Ji and Guo Yan, Li Dao began to doubt the ability of the man in black. And once this 'doubt' comes up, it is an irresistible fear. He sat down and began to get restless. The soldiers on the left and right also persuaded him to withdraw quickly!

Li Dao believed in ghosts and gods, so he worshipped Taoists and sorcerers in the army, and now, seeing that even the male witches who could communicate with gods and ghosts could not save him at the time of this catastrophe, Li Dao could only be appointed. He glared fiercely at the man in black, slammed the horse's belly under his feet, and pulled the reins in his hand, about to flee for his life when the front line of defense was about to collapse. However, just then, a miraculous scene occurred. Or, this is not called a miracle, but for Pan Zhang, Zhu Ling and others who are about to enter the encirclement, it is a nightmare and a curse.

Knock knock knock......

Finally, after a stick of incense, the drums worked. Those Pan Zhang's subordinates who rushed to the front were slashing with the enemy when they were suddenly poured into their ears by this sound wave, and they immediately spat blood from their mouths and planted their horses. And as the drums gradually became louder, all the thieves who approached the man in black within a hundred meters were all attacked by this sound wave. This sudden effect not only surprised Pan Zhang and the others who were behind, but even the people of Li Dao's subordinates who were fighting against them were flustered for a while, and they didn't know what was going on.

First of all, Li Wei saw it, he laughed, and urged the man in black to continue to shake the drum and not stop. For he also saw that when the drum sounded, he would only kill the enemy and not his own people, and no matter how many enemies rushed in, they would throw their bodies to the ground even if they told others to turn on their backs.

"Hahaha!"

When Li Dao saw this effect, his eyes were also red, and the killing intent was even worse. Choking, he drew his knife and said loudly to the left and right: "This drum will only kill the thieves, and those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, if you want to live, just rush to kill, and don't retreat!" ”

Knock knock knock......

The drumbeat continued, death continued, and people kept spitting blood from their mouths for no apparent reason, falling off their horses, and even the horses under their crotches could not escape death. For a time, the battlefield was enveloped in a strong and strange atmosphere. Those unknown Li Dao's subordinates, listening to the general's explanation at this time, even if they were timid, they could only grit their teeth and desperately turn around and slash and kill.

Li Dao's troops launched a counterattack, while Pan Zhang and Zhu Ling's troops on the other side fell into boundless panic.

The blood rising to the sky and the soldiers who fell on horseback all made people look chilled. The soldiers and horses of the former army have fallen countless times, but the people and horses of the rear army a hundred meters away are not much better. They were poured into their ears by this strange sound wave, only to feel that the blood in their chests was surging, their hearts palpitated, and they were already comfortable before the battle, and many of them were desperately falling backwards. Of course, this situation cannot be avoided by Pan Zhang and Zhu Ling, and it can be seen from the expressions of the two that they are actually very painful in their hearts.

Seeing that someone was retreating, General Pan Zhang had to move forward, and he also wanted to stop this unfavorable momentum. However, as he went deeper and deeper, Pan Zhang's heart palpitated even more, and his head buzzed, as if it was about to explode at any moment. Unfortunately, he felt a dry breath in his nostrils, and it was getting worse.

"Ahh General, you can't go in anymore, your nose is bleeding! ”

was reminded by the soldiers next to him, and Pan Zhang felt a nosebleed flowing. He still wanted to do something wrong and move on, however, as he went further, he also tasted more powerful attacks. The sound wave, which was not very strong, suddenly poured into the ears, and a stream of qi and blood slid into the brain, through the blood veins, and suddenly attacked the five organs. In the five internal organs, there seemed to be something that was in harmony with the sound of the drum, and it actually became restless. And this restless warm current only took a moment, and Pan Zhang woke up immediately, hurriedly pulled the horse back, and shouted: "Withdraw quickly, retreat quickly!" ”

He shouted two hundred meters away, and the effect of this sound attack had reached such a point, it was no wonder that the soldiers within that hundred meters would be killed immediately! Pan Zhang has been suppressing this restless warm current, and since he ran thousands of meters away, he could no longer support it, and a mouthful of blood spilled out.

"General Pan!"

At this time, Zhu Ling had already rushed over, and when he suddenly saw Pan Zhang spurting blood, he was also scared to death. Pan Zhang shook his head and smiled in shock: "It's okay!" I can still hold on. General Zhu, you can't attack anymore, let people withdraw quickly. He had personally felt this strange sound attack, and if he hadn't run fast, he would have been killed on the spot. Thinking about it, if people continue to fight, I'm afraid that they will lose everything. Zhu Ling was also scared, and knew that this situation could not be fought anymore, so he hurriedly responded and ordered the troops to be withdrawn.

And at the head of Yanshi City, Chen Nuo has been paying attention to the war. A moment earlier, he also saw that his men and horses did not immediately withdraw their troops according to his orders after the two groups of men and horses of Pan Zhang and Zhu Ling converged, Chen Nuo was of course surprised and angry. But seeing that once these two teams met, they fought and the thieves fell apart, as if the other party was a little unable to stand up, which made Chen Nuo's heart move. He also knew that there was a so-called 'fighter', and perhaps Pan Zhang and Zhu Ling were seizing this fighter plane and trying to eat Li Dao's troops in one go. Since they have this certainty, Chen Nuo can see it, and he didn't immediately ask Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, and he still wants to see the situation.

However, it was only a moment, and when he paid attention to the battlefield again, he found that the battlefield had suddenly undergone earth-shaking changes. The originally rigorous team formation actually began to crack, and many people ran back desperately, what is going on? Chen Nuo was shocked, knowing that there must have been an unpredictable change, he didn't dare to delay any longer, and asked people to shout gold, ordering them to retreat, and he personally led his men and horses to open the city to meet them.

"Withdraw, thieves withdraw!"

When Li Dao saw that the enemy had left corpses all over the place, and then retreated lifelessly, he immediately ordered his men and horses to start a counterattack. It's just that when the golden sound sounded on the Yanshi's side, the black-clothed man standing on the high platform immediately extinguished the drum and did not beat again. The man in black knocked down this breath, and his face was already miserable, which was very ugly. And when he suddenly saw the pile of horrific corpses around him, he couldn't help but laugh miserably, spurted a mouthful of blood, shook his head, and walked down from the high platform in a dejected manner.

"Huh? Hold it! Why didn't you knock it? Come back to me......"

Li Dao blocked the way of the man in black and asked him sharply. The man in black glanced at him, shook his head weakly, and said, "The thief has retreated, why do you need to force it again?" After saying that, he ignored Li Wei's resentful eyes and walked straight away......

And Li Dao, because of the fruitless pursuit of Pan Zhang and Zhu Ling, was killed by Chen Nuo's army in the city, and defeated him for a while, so he became angry and blamed all the responsibility on the man in black. In his opinion, if his drum continues to beat, it will inevitably affect the entire battle situation, and he will never be defeated for a while. At this time, he saw that the man in black was still saying some prevarications, and he couldn't help but be angry and scolded him: "Bullshit! Whatever violates the harmony of heaven, General Ben will do whatever he tells you to do, and you can still go against General Ben! ”

The man in black shook his head slightly, it seemed that he didn't want to continue arguing with Li Dao about this matter. He bowed his hand to him, took two steps back, then turned and walked straight away.

"You ......"

Li Dao gritted his teeth, grabbed the bamboo slip on the handsome case, and was about to throw it out. Only he just grabbed it, and then put it down. After all, this man in black was invited by him with a lot of money, and his purpose was only to protect himself with his ability to communicate with ghosts and gods, and there was no one to replace him in killing him now, so he couldn't be killed. When Li Wei thought of this, he could only snort twice and stopped talking.

……

"Yes, I think maybe you can know, and you will be able to give the answer I want."

In the south of Luoyang City, the conversation between Chen Nuo and the woman in red continued. Chen Nuo told the woman in red in front of him about the sudden fiasco of Pan Zhang and the others during the day, and handed her his eyes, hoping that she could give an answer.

What happened during the day was so weird that Chen Nuo had to classify it as 'Wu'. He can't explain it himself, and he can only ask for advice from others. Of course, this object is none other than the woman in red is the most suitable. You must know that since she can play with the spirit snake, she must also be classified as a 'witch', so this kind of thing can only be solved by her.

"This is a Gu vowel attack, a kind of witchcraft, which is very evil. To perform this kind of sound attack, you must first let people drink the 'Gu Zi', and after nine days have passed, then urge the 'Gu Mother', then you can use the sound of the drum to manipulate the life and death of others with sound waves. ”

The woman in red said very concisely, if she didn't understand, she didn't know what a 'Gu Mother' was and what a 'Gu Zi' was. Of course, Chen Nuo also knew that she was not in the mood to explain this, but fortunately, he had heard about Gu art before. Thinking about it, this Gu mother is nothing more than the kind of Gu that takes a hundred insects and then lets them bite each other, and the last one left is the 'Gu Mother'. And the one born by the Gu Mother is stripped away, which is the 'Gu Child'.

"You mean nine?"

Chen Nuo suddenly thought that Li Dao and the others did not attack again after they spontaneously came to Yanshi, thinking that they were waiting for this nine-day period. Seeing the woman in red nodding, Chen Nuo thought for a while and asked again, "Then how did they let us drink this 'Gu'?" ”

The woman in red smiled: "This is very simple, but wherever there is a river well, there is no Gu to be dropped, and as long as you drink it, you will be hit by the 'Gu'." Since all the soldiers who rushed to kill were broken by the sound attack, I think they all drank this water and fell into the 'Gu', as for the general, I don't think you can escape. ”

When Chen Nuo heard what the woman in red said, he nodded and had to admit it. Although he was not on the battlefield at that time, the sound of the drums was as pervasive as flies, drilling into his ears, although he did not vomit blood on the spot, but affected by the sound attack, his heart palpitated, and he was fine as soon as the drums stopped.

However, hearing her say that the person who went down to Gu may have borrowed the river well, it seems that both inside and outside Yanshi City have been calculated by Li Dao. It's just that it's hateful that they succeeded in tricking the Gu, and they didn't catch the Gu in advance, otherwise it could have been prevented in advance.

"So, is there a way out?"

Thinking that there is a 'Gu Zi' in his abdomen, as long as he hears that kind of drum sound again, if he gets a little closer, he may die on the spot, can Chen Nuoyan sit still? And he is not the only one who is 'Gu', the soldiers of the whole battalion or even the people of the whole city may be 'Gu', then this matter is even more serious. What's more, when many soldiers went back, they still vomited blood in their mouths, and although they didn't die for a while, they couldn't stand vomiting like this. There is also a general Pan Zhang's injuries are not light, nosebleeds from time to time, bedridden, Chen Nuo is even more headache.

"Nope."

The woman in red lightly opened her lips and shook her head.

"No?"

Chen Nuo's heart was half cold, and his expression was a little sluggish. If the woman in red says no, then there must be none. Is there really no salvation? Chen Nuo's heart is like ashes, for the soldiers of the whole battalion, for the people of the city, and for the great ambition in his chest, it is inevitable that he will be miserable. Could it be that I can only stop there?

Wow, a mouthful of blood couldn't stop anymore and spit out of my mouth.

"General, don't be busy vomiting blood, I said no, in fact, there are still some."

The woman in red smiled lightly, and then said, "If you want to save yourself, there is no other way but to kill the Gu Mother, and everything will be fine!" ”

When Chen Nuo heard this, he hurriedly stopped vomiting blood, rubbed it twice, and complained: "If you don't say it earlier, I vomited this mouthful of blood in vain." ”

The woman in red giggled, stood up, danced, and said, "General, do you want me to help?" If you're going to ask me for help, you're going to have to grant me one unconditionally? Oh, General, don't you want to hear what the request is? Before I say that, I can give you a story for free, little girl. ”

Chen Nuo hurriedly got up and said: "No need, no need, it's 100,000 urgent, whoever has the time to listen to your story, anyway, I am determined to come to you, and I know that your conditions must not be simple, girl, it is very human." But there is no way, I still have to beg you, so no matter what conditions you have, girl, I Chen Nuo will agree afterwards. Now it is important to ask the girl to get this matter done. ”

"The general is a cheerful person, and I will be happy to talk about that little woman later."

The woman in red smiled and looked at Chen Nuo with beautiful eyes.
