065 War drums beat

I don't know if it was because Wang Baoyu took the short knife and touched some mechanism, or if Fan Jinqiang's piety touched the gods, the white skeleton actually collapsed, it may be a long time, and the white skeleton turned into a pile of powder in an instant.

"Damn, it's so choking!" Wang Baoyu hurriedly fanned his nose desperately with his hand, but Fan Jinqiang puffed again, knelt down and bowed to the pile of powder, as if he had offended the master, and kept babbling in his mouth.

Almost at the same time, in the recess of the stone wall where the white skeleton sits, a stone slab seemed to fall down behind it, and a black passage appeared.

It really shouldn't be killed, Wang Baoyu pulled up Fan Jinqiang, who was still worshipping sincerely, and pointed to the passage, Fan Jinqiang naturally understood his intentions, and hurriedly sorted out his clothes and climbed in.

Crawling and crawling can't climb the head, Wang Baoyu and Fan Jinqiang keep crawling forward in this lightless passage, and they don't know where this passage leads.

The two climbed and stopped, and then Wang Baoyu was really out of body, and he still slept for half an hour, but he didn't dare to sleep more, after all, the future was unknown, all the water he brought had been drunk, and the food was almost gone, the sooner he went out, the risk could be minimized.

After crawling for a night, a bright light finally appeared in front of them, and soon, Wang Baoyu and Fan Jinqiang crawled out of a narrow hole, and their bodies were almost dirty.

"Brother Fan, let's finally come out!" Wang Baoyu said happily.

Fan Jinqiang kowtowed a few more times towards the entrance of the cave, muttering nonsense such as thanking the master for blessing and pointing out a way to live for himself.

When the two of them stood still for a while, they looked at it and found that they were standing on a halfway up the mountainside, faintly seeing the county seat of Xinye, and from the azimuth, this is already the north of Xinye City, which is the northernmost point of Heilong Mountain.

Unknowingly, he actually climbed twenty miles this night, and it was still uphill, Wang Baoyu couldn't help but secretly admire himself, and he was also a good young man with perseverance.

It's just that Wang Baoyu felt very strange at one point, vaguely seeing that the north gate of Xinye City was tightly closed, and he couldn't see a person walking, but the city wall was full of flags of various colors?

Could it be that in ancient times, there was also a saying about Sunday off? It's not right, you have to go out shopping on weekends, why not one?

"Brother Fan, was there such a phenomenon in this Xinye City in the past?" Wang Baoyu inquired.

Fan Jinqiang shook his head blankly: "It's very strange, I haven't seen such a scene." Perhaps there were big people here, and the people hid at home for some reason. ”

Oh, that makes sense, Wang Baoyu nodded.

"Brother, what are you going to do next? Can I go to Shinno Castle for a temporary rest? Fan Jinqiang asked, patting the dust on his clothes.

Loach is a fish, although its vitality is very tenacious, but it takes too long, and it is afraid of dying from lack of oxygen, it doesn't matter if it dies, the weather is so hot, in case it stinks, wouldn't it be in vain?

Thinking of this, Wang Baoyu said firmly: "No need, let's go home as much as possible, since we have come out, we can buy food along the way." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Fan Jinqiang nodded.

Probably afraid that someone would go in and offend the master, Fan Jinqiang also brought a big stone to block the entrance of the hole that the two had just come out of, kowtowed a few more words, and then walked carefully towards the bottom of the mountain with Wang Baoyu.

It's not that Fan Jinqiang's knees are worthless, and he kowtows to a master he met halfway, in the final analysis, it is still the ancients who respect the teacher, not to mention that Fan Jinqiang is still a person who values love and righteousness.

Just as the two of them were about to come to the foot of the mountain and step on the flat road, suddenly, there was a sound of drums in Xinye Castle, and the drum began to beat slowly, and the beating became more and more rapid, until the beating made people's hearts tremble.

"Brother, the drums of war are sounding, let's go quickly, it seems that there is going to be a war here." Fan Jinqiang said nervously.

What the? Was it the sound of war drums? Wang Baoyu was also taken aback, of course he knew how cruel the war was in the era of cold weapons, and it was best to stay away from this kind of scene.

However, as soon as Fan Jinqiang's words fell, the same drum suddenly sounded from the valley not far from the two.

With the sound of people shouting and neighing, a group of cavalry rushed out of the valley, about a few hundred people, holding a dozen brightly colored flags, and almost all of them were spears and knives in their hands, shining in the sun.

Behind the cavalry, there came a black oppressive infantry, several thousand men, almost all of them holding short knives and shields, and some of them carrying bows and arrows, obviously archers.

Whether it is cavalry or infantry, the clothes on their bodies are earthy yellow, Wang Baoyu has seen the soldiers brought by General Guan and Cai Mao's soldiers, the uniforms of these people are basically gray, and these people in front of them are obviously neither Liu Bei's soldiers nor Jingzhou's soldiers.

"It's not good, it's Cao Bing. Brother, get out of the way with me! Fan Jinqiang said in a panic, and hurriedly pulled Wang Baoyu to hide behind a low bush, not even daring to breathe.

"Cao Bing is here, something big is going to happen here, right?" Wang Baoyu's heart was also pounding nervously, in this chaotic war era, dead people are common, if you are unlucky enough to die here, you will never be able to return to modern times.

Well, Fan Jinqiang didn't dare to speak much, he just snorted, but he looked at the situation outside without blinking, frightened at the same time, there was also a restless feeling inside, good men all want to fight on the battlefield!

These soldiers looked well-trained, and soon formed a neat square formation in the huge open space outside the city, Wang Baoyu looked from among the bushes, and saw that in front of this group of men and horses, a big flag was flying high, and there was only a big "Lu" character on it.

Below the flag, there was a general riding a jujube red horse, he raised the big knife in his hand arrogantly, pointed at Xinye City, and shouted loudly: "Liu Bei Xiao'er, go out of the city quickly and die." ”

This voice is designated to be specially practiced, and the penetration is very strong, Wang Baoyu is thousands of meters apart, but he still hears it clearly, just after this General Lu's voice fell, the gate of Xinye City opened, and a pair of people and horses rushed out with a shout.

The soldiers are all gray clothes, it is Liu Bei's army, but compared with Cao Bing's clothes here, Liu Bei's soldiers' clothes are very shabby, and it is obvious that their economic strength is far inferior to Cao Cao.

Wang Baoyu didn't care about this, his eyes stared at Liu Bei's side without blinking a general who rushed to the front, this person was in silver helmet and silver armor, holding a silver spear, sitting on a white dragon horse, dignified and majestic, with a big flag behind him, embroidered with a fiery red "Zhao" word.
