"Second brother—second brother—" Guo Yu chased all the way and shouted all the way. But the pile of people and horses walked faster and faster, farther and farther, in the wind and snow, constantly wandering, wandering. No matter how Guo Hua catches up, he can't catch up anymore.

"Childe-childe-"

Guo Hua looked back, and it was Qibao who followed, hugging himself and shaking it constantly.

"Childe wake up—Childe wake up—"

Guo Hua woke up and found Qibao looking at him with a panicked face, and when he saw that he had opened his eyes, he grinned.

"Childe, you're having a nightmare, aren't you? I'll help you change into new clothes, and you're drenched in sweat when you look like you. ”

Guo Yu didn't speak for a long time, and let Qibao help him change into new pajamas.

"In the past few days, there has been no news from the front, right?"

"No, I didn't hear anything from the ladies," Qibao changed Guo Hua's clothes, stretched his waist, and lay back on his small bed, "However, the eldest young master was summoned to the palace at noon yesterday, and he hasn't come back yet." ”

"Did you get any words back?"

"It's just that the eldest young master's little attendant came back before night yesterday to pass the ceremony, saying that the eldest young master might not be able to go home at night, and then rushed back. Didn't say anything more. ”

"Well, you can continue to sleep for a while, the eldest brother is thoughtful, and nothing will happen in the future. ”

said this, but Guo Hua felt uneasy in his heart. The fact that the eldest brother entered the palace was extraordinary, and something very important must have happened.

I don't know if it will have something to do with the things in the dream? Second brother, you must not have an accident.

Among Guo Ziyi's many sons, Guo Yan's martial arts are the best. Long spears and short knives, crossbows and sleeve arrows, and stepping down immediately, are all outstanding among the *. In particular, a spear made it like a dragon to enter the WTO, invincible, and helped Guo Ziyi make a lot of meritorious contributions during the suppression of the rebellion.

Moreover, Guo Yang's personality is also one of the most heroic among the brothers, brave and courageous, happy and chivalrous, brothers and sisters, if any of them are bullied outside, Guo Yang will seek justice for them. Even the servants and maids in the family, Guo Yang often protects them.

For Guo Xuan, Guo Yang likes it even more.

Although Guo Hua is playful, he is free and easy by nature and is not burdened by fame and fortune. Unlike the eldest brother and several other brothers, he learns like his father, he is careful and restrained, and he has to ponder in his stomach for a long time when he speaks, and he is tired when he looks at it.

Since he was sensible, no matter what troubles Guo Hua caused, Guo Yan was able to calm down, hide what he could, and carry it if he could.

Therefore, the relationship between Guo Yu and Guo Yang is always deeper than that of the other brothers.

When Guo Yao returned to Guo's mansion, it was already too late.

He went to the old lady's room as soon as possible, and it took about half an hour before he came out, summoned the Guo Mansion, and went to the hall to discuss the matter.

The old lady did not appear, everything was presided over by Guo Yao, and I saw a very heavy and sad expression on his face. Several young ladies and their families couldn't help but speculate in their hearts.

The old man and several young masters are on the front line of counterinsurgency, and the Guo family is always worried on weekdays.

"The second brother sacrificed his life for the country," Guo Yao said heavily after a long time.

"Ahh

"Alright. Let me explain this matter first. According to reports from the front, the second brother was killed by thieves on the way to escort grain and grass, and the grain and grass were also looted. The king of Guangping and others interceded, and the matter of losing grain and grass will not be pursued for the time being. Therefore, this matter must also be carefully kept low-key, so as not to be framed. ”

"What about the body of the second master? It should always be returned to Chang'an and buried in peace. ”

The second young lady was dazed, and the sister-in-law asked for her.

"The body of the second brother is still in the front army, but the head is missing, so that the bones are incomplete. ”

"Huh, was it taken by the rebels?"

"Yes. So next I have to discuss with the sixth brother about regaining the second brother's head. Madame, go with some of your sisters to your mother's room, and spend more time with her old man. Remember, don't make a noise about the second brother's affairs, let alone make a big deal about the funeral, and act cautiously. ”

The family was informed that Suo had dispersed. Only Guo Yao and Guo Yu were left in the hall. Guo Hua's expression was a little sluggish.

"Your relationship with your second brother has always been deeper than that of me and other brothers, and you have to take care of this matter yourself. Since my Guo family brother has served Datang in the army, life and death have long been abandoned. Don't let this discourage you. ”

"Big brother, where are you talking. The second brother met with misfortune, and the eldest brother must be very sad in his heart. Hey, I had a weird dream last night, and I didn't expect it to be—"

Guo Yao immediately told Guo Yao about the dream at night.

"Oh, I heard you say this, the dream of yours is a little similar to what the lieutenant said, it's really weird, maybe the second brother is dreaming with you in the dark. ”

"How?"

"The murder of the second brother who robbed the grain and grass, listening to a lieutenant of the former army, is also very strange. ”

It turned out that Guo Yang led 3,000 troops to Huainan Road to transport grain and grass, and according to the calculation of time, when he should have arrived at the former army camp, there was a beacon fire and wolf smoke.

When the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty arrived, they saw three thousand headless soldiers riding on horses in a valley, constantly circling. The scene is very weird and terrifying.

Just when everyone was puzzled, a captain ran out in a frenzy. It turned out that he was in charge of reconnaissance and patrol at that time, and when he went out on a mission, the horse was startled and ran out more than ten miles at once. to be spared.

When he returned, he happened to be slaughtered by the * who was escorting grain and grass.

"Since it's a battle, why hasn't he joined the battle circle?"

"This is what drove him mad, and according to him, the enemy slaughtered only three thousand* of the three thousand. ”

"Ah————h

Three people slaughtered 3,000* elites, and there was also Guo Yang, the second son of Guo Ziyi, who was brave and good at fighting. No one would believe such a statement.

"Is the captain's word credible?"

"It was General Li Siye who went to the rescue, and among the information sent back this time, there was also a letter from General Li, mainly explaining the scene they saw when they rushed to the rescue and some judgments on the captain's statement. If it weren't for seeing the headless soldiers wandering the valley with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed the captain. ”

According to the lieutenant, he managed to tame the horse and drove it back. In the distance, I heard a shout of killing from the valley.

But just as he was about to approach the battlefield, the shouting suddenly stopped. When things were not quite right, he tied his horse to a wooded area by the side of the road, and rounded the road and climbed up a hill to see the valley in the distance.

The three thousand* were divided into six columns facing themselves, led by General Guo Yang. It was too far away to make out the expressions of those people, but from the captain's point of view, those * were already very strange at the time, and they were frozen there.

Directly in front of *, three people stood with their backs to themselves. Looking at the body shape and clothing, it looks like a monk from the Western Regions, and a Fuso warrior dressed up.

The monk in the middle was slender and appeared to be the leader of the three. He held one hand up in the air, as if he still held some kind of magic weapon in his hand.

The artifact shone with a rainbow of light, mirroring the snow in the valley, and the whole valley was enveloped in that light.

After a while, the stiff* began to move, and the six teams joined each other, walking slowly through the valley, gradually joining into a huge circular formation.

Then, the captain's greatest nightmare of his life began.

I saw the remaining monks and samurai showing their blades, stepping forward in a few steps, and constantly slashing the * soldiers passing in front of them.

The two of them are steady and powerful, not hurrying or slow, cutting down at will with a knife, and they don't treat the soldiers in front of them as human beings at all.

Pity those * soldiers as if in a dream, their heads kept rolling down, neither resisting nor wailing.

Only blood spurted out of the throat, gurgling.

The captain has been in the army for more than ten years, and he has experienced many wars, big and small, but the scene in front of him is far beyond his previous understanding of war.

It's a demon law. It's a demon law. It's a demon law.

The lieutenant's mouth whispered. The body froze and lay there, hands deep in the frozen earth.

The silent killing lasted for several hours.

In the end, it was the general Guo Yang who was beheaded. It was done for the head of the monk. I saw his figure float up, landed on the general's horse, and wiped his hand on Guo Yan's neck, and then took the head down.

The soldiers whose heads had been cut off did not fall from their horses, but continued to circle the valley on horseback.

The blood that was constantly flowing gradually drew a huge blood-colored circle in the valley.

The demon monk put away Guo Yan's head with a leather bag, and then walked to the skeletons piled up like hills next to him.

I saw him sacrifice a long rope, which was as winding as a snake and strung all the heads one by one. Immediately after that, the figure flickered, and the demon monk who was the leader turned into four figures.

The four figures are arranged in all directions, with their palms together in front of their chests, and their mouths are constantly chanting mantras.

After a bang, the skull hill burst into flames, and soon the bloody skeleton burned to a dark black.

Seeing that the fire was fading, the demon monk stretched out his arms and shouted: Get up-

I saw countless skeletons turn into nine black dragons, soaring into the air, and constantly neighing and circling in the sky above the headless soldiers.

The valley was cloudy and windy, and the nine black dragons were constantly spitting lightning and thunder, like a man-eating hell.

The demon monk at the head completed the spell, as if admiring his own masterpiece, looked at it for a while, and then led the people away.

After the demon monk left, the black dragon gradually disappeared, but the momentum of lightning and thunder was still unabated.

"This is the Nine Dragons Soul Devouring Array," listening to Guo Yao talk about this, Guo Yao interjected and explained, "It is an extremely powerful evil sect technique in Tantra, no matter people, animals and birds, once you enter, it will touch the formation, and immediately fall into the siege of headless zombies and the thunder, fire and lightning of the black dragon, even if you are a first-class master, you will not escape death, not to mention those ordinary soldiers who don't know anything about magic." ”
