Journey to the West 8 Section 20

Verse 20 And they walked all night in the woods. It seems that this is the only way to get rid of the nightmare in my heart.

The day finally dawned.

Wu Ming stood on the top of a small hill, forgetting about a faulted mountain peak on the opposite side. The mountain has a peculiar shape and can only be climbed from the southeast. At the top is the cliff. The magic of nature seems like a giant axe. Split a mountain in half. Half of the southeast is left here, while the other half is missing. In summer, the southeast monsoon blows on the hills, and the low bushes on the hills are undulating with the waves.

It is a limestone mountain, perhaps with shallow soil. So there are no towering trees on it. Most of the vegetation has died, and at this time it is a glance. A patch of grayish-yellow. The wind was blowing in the forest, and Wu Ming seemed to hear their desire for water.

There is too little rain in Nanban this year.

On the distant mountain, there was a terrible sound of carving. Like a ghost talisman urging life, it was pasted on Wu Ming's heart. Wu Mingru was struck by lightning.

He turned his head silently!

The familiar snake eagle was hovering over the hill. Keep spinning in circles. Provocation in general.

"This mountain dog army is really haunting." He couldn't help but muttered in a low voice.

Zhang Hao walked over with a tired face at this time, and whispered to Wu Ming: "My lord, don't go quickly, otherwise, the other party will catch up again." ”

Wu Ming turned his head and smiled bitterly: "Go, how to go?" We can't march faster than the Mountain Dog Army. ”

After speaking, he didn't pay attention to Zhang Hao. walked straight to Tao Yu behind him.

Everyone was squatting in place to rest, and after a night of hard work, everyone was tired. Tao Yuzheng lowered his head and sat silently on the sliding rod, frowning. The slender left hand moved up and down his legs, gently rubbing it. Holding the prince's urn tightly with his right hand.

The box was so close to her, but it seemed far away.

He Yizheng stood next to her and squatted down. A pair of her jade hands put on Tao Yu's left hand, hand to hand, very white.

Tao Yu gently pushed her away and said softly, "Xiaoyi, you should also go and rest." I'll do it myself. ”

He Yi stood up, his face slightly embarrassed. Just stared at Wu Ming who came over. This time, he smiled boldly and lightly blessed Wu Ming: "My lord!" ”

Wu Ming's heart was also warm, and he said, "Little, Miss He, go down." I have something to tell my mother. ”

He Yi raised his head, his jade-like face full of disappointment. But he silently stepped aside. I thought about my own thoughts.

Tao Yu stood up and looked at the people who were sitting on the ground, a trace of surprise flashed on his face: "I don't know what happened to Lord Wu?" God mysterious. Even Xiaoyi has to be opened. Speaking of this, a trace of laughter crossed his face like ten thousand years of ice.

This is probably the first time she laughed since the prince passed away. Wu Ming thought silently in his heart.

Wu Ming looked back at the snake carving that kept hovering on the top of the mountain, and said, "Niangniang, there is a subordinate who can solve the mountain dog army and achieve the goal of once and for all." ”

Tao Yu's big eyes suddenly glowed, looking at this man who was as tall as a mountain, he couldn't wait to say, "Oh, I don't know what good plan Lord Wu has." ”

Wu Ming raised his head violently, looked directly into Tao Yu's eyes, and said word by word: "If this plan is feasible, I hope Niangniang can agree." ”

Tao Yu took two steps back, obviously startled by the other party's actions. But she didn't have the heart to blame Wu Ming, because Wu Ming's eyes were really terrifying.

Crazy and decisive!

She took a deep breath and said softly, "Say it and listen." ”

Wu Ming raised his right hand, pointed to the faulted mountain peak in the distance, and said, "The mountain ahead, only the southeast direction can reach the top of the mountain. Behind the summit is a steep cliff. And now, the southeast wind is blowing. Some time ago, the drought was severe, and many dwarf shrubs had died. If we lead the other party to the top of the mountain, and then set fire on all sides at the foot of the mountain, the wind will take advantage of the fire. Then the enemy will surely die. ”

After a pause, he said: "I want to lead a dozen people to pretend to be the main force of our army, lead the other party to the top of the mountain, and then you set fire to the foot of the mountain." In this way, it may be possible to wipe out the mountain dog army. ”

Tao Yu's face also changed, this plan was so crazy that her jade face turned pale with fright, and after a long time, she shook her head and said, "No, even if you can successfully lead the other party over." So what do you do? Will they perish with each other on the mountain? ”

Wu Ming lowered his head and said softly: "Niangniang, please think twice, for the sake of everyone, for the sake of the entire team, and for the sake of His Royal Highness, you must make a decision." What's more, if the plan is successful, we may be able to return safely! ”

Is that really the case? Tao Yu also knows that this is more or less the comfort that the other party gave him.

She bit her lip tightly, after the death of the prince, she told herself again and again in her heart that she must live well, and even more so to give birth to the little guy in her womb, bring it up well, and hate her family with the snow country, as long as she can achieve this goal, it is worth sacrificing.

Thinking of this, she spit out a word with difficulty: "Good!" ”

The mouth was salty, and an astringent taste permeated the mouth, slightly fishy. Did you have your lip bitten?

Wu Ming told everyone about this plan.

The whole team was silent, and for a moment, Tian Hong was the first to stand up and said in a loud voice: "I'll go with adults!" ”

Zhang Hao also stood up and shouted excitedly: "My lord, this time you have to pick me up no matter what." I will be your retinue when I die. ”

Ge Yi didn't say anything, just stood up silently!

……

One by one, the soldiers stood up and looked up at Wu Ming, and the earnest look in their eyes made Wu Ming's heart sour.

He also felt a pain in his heart, making this decision meant that at least a dozen people might be buried in the mountains forever. Yesterday, I vowed to bring each of them back safely. However, today, more than a dozen fresh lives have to be pushed to death, is this the helplessness of war?

Suppressing the sadness in his heart, he said: "Brother Tian, Brother Ge, you must not go, and in the future, this team will not be without you." ”

He walked over and said to Tian Hong: "You are in a hurry, listen to Brother Ge's opinion in case of trouble, it's really not good, ask Xiaoying, that kid has a lot of ideas." ”

Tian Hong's eyes were red, but this time he couldn't speak loudly, and said, "My lord......"

Zhang Hao shouted happily on the side: "My lord, you can call me this time." ”

Wu Ming glared at him and said, "What are you doing with your three-legged cat kung fu?" ”

Zhang Hao was startled, but immediately puffed up his chest again and retorted loudly: "Who said that I am a three-legged cat, I have already been in two paragraphs." As he spoke, he looked at Wu Ming's murderous gaze. The voice gradually became quieter, and he changed to a smile, but it was more ugly than crying: "Of course, compared to you, you are definitely not worth mentioning." Take me, sir. ”

Wu Ming looked at him, but a trace of shame passed through his heart, this kid had already reached the second stage, and he hadn't even realized it. Did you break through recently?

Thinking of this, he patted the other party's shoulder, and then helped him tidy up his clothes: "Work hard, strive to reach the third stage, and you will be qualified to enter the guard camp." Then he added: "No longer as a retinue!" ”

Wu Ming paused, looked at He Yi in the distance, the other party was standing upright in the mountain breeze, and the wind swept up her white palace dress, outlining an amazing beauty. Fairy-like. Her eyes were red. A poignant red color appeared. He lowered his head and whispered to Zhang Hao: "If I don't come back, take care of Miss He and escort her back." ”

Zhang Hao looked at him and cried, "My lord......"

……

More than a dozen fighters lined up in a neat queue and looked at Wu Ming, they were selected by Wu Ming, they were all in the fourth stage, and they were good at light body kung fu. There are several elders in it, if you really can't come back this time, the grassroots generals who want to come to the Xuanwu team will also be disabled, right? Will the Guards Battalion really be able to keep this last bit of fire? I don't know, what is the current situation of the Suzaku team led by Lei Feier, who is far away in Kyoto? Let's hope they're okay. Although it is a luxury. Thinking of this, he sighed deeply.

At this time, Tao Yu came over and said softly to Wu Ming: "Lord Wu, I don't know if I should say something or not?" ”

Wu Ming was stunned for a moment and said, "Niangniang has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

"His Royal Highness often sighed before his death, Lord Wu was brave and invincible. And tough and calm. When we faced the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Southern Barbarians, Lord Wu also charged forward every time. He even dared to be alone in the enemy camp and snatched back Lord Zhao's head. But at this time, you sigh like this, and you look like you have no faith at all. If it goes on like this, how can we lead everyone out of this reckless mountain and return to their hometown. ”

Her words were like a scoop of cold water, falling around her head. drenched Wu Ming from head to toe.

Yes, even when I was on earth, I was used to seeing life and death. In the ring, blood splattered on both sides. I don't know how many people there are. Opponents of all colors have all kinds of expressions, or hideous, or gritted teeth, or pain, and have already trained their hearts like steel. But now it's sentimental.

Is this the fault of responsibility?

He bowed down and said, "Mother." You're right. The road is always walked by people. We must not lose faith at any time. ”

Speaking of this, he untied the red night in his hand, turned around and handed it to Tao Yu. He waved his hand violently and said loudly to a dozen fighters: "Let's go, brothers! ”

Tao Yu stretched out his left hand and took Chixiao, but he felt that this sword was so heavy. It is as heavy as the urn of the prince in his right hand.

It seems to have a thousand pounds.

Her body trembled.

Wu Ming took a dozen soldiers and headed for the broken mountain in the distance. Fanfare. The rest of the people hid in the nearby forest. Then cover up the tracks. Look for an opportunity to set a fire down the mountain.

The Southern Barbarians are too superstitious about snake eagles, and this beast is just a bird after all. can only simply point out the direction, and it must not be able to see through this package drop plan, and even if it is recognized, it is estimated that it is not clear.

"Wait, sir." Behind him, there was a sudden gasping whisper. This voice was very familiar, Wu Ming's heart was shocked, and he turned his head.

I saw the beautiful woman in my heart, holding a white skirt in her right hand, and trotting towards her all the way.

Wu Ming stood on a mountain rock, stopped, and asked in a daze, "What are you doing here?" ”

She ran over, but there were tears on her face, and she suddenly hugged Wu Ming's head, kissed Wu Ming's lips very quickly, and then raised her head, her jade face was like a flower, but it was miserable. He muttered, "Take care, sir." ”

After saying that, he covered his face and ran away. It's just that there is really no road on this mountain, she walked too quickly, stumbled, and almost fell.

Wu Ming looked up, and the scorching sun was already high. Presumably, even if there was dew on that mountain, it would have dried up a long time ago.

Under this golden light, not only this primeval forest shines, but also a group of warriors who are struggling to survive. There are also Tao Yu's mother and son, as well as He Yi.

Thousands of miles of rivers and mountains!
