(22) Oyu Valley

The Dayu Valley Mountain Range, which stretches for more than 20 miles, is not high in altitude, but extremely steep.

Sections of cliffs rise from the ground, dangerous peaks stand, covering the sky and the sun.

The square cliff is like a knife and axe, the strange rocks are craggy, not a single inch of grass grows, and from time to time you can see the black and swarthy boulders, hanging obliquely on the mountainside, crumbling.

The road at the foot of the mountain is spacious and flat, but because of the steepness of the mountain and the deep and long valley, the road surface does not see sunlight all year round, and there is a lot of water and moss, even in the middle of summer, you can feel deep in the cold to the bone.

The moonlight is waving, the shadows of the trees are mottled, and occasionally you can find that there are figures shaking in the rocks in the mountains and mountains in the valley.

"National Teacher, my subordinates have found out that there are five hundred spirit beast cavalry, under the banner of Xuanyuan, they have entered the valley mouth, and they will soon enter the ambush range of our army, and they are all generals of the green and silver gas realm. National teacher, did you give the order to prepare for an attack?"

A soldier from Lanling whispered beside Zikui.

"Okay! Hundreds of generals of the Green Silver Qi Realm, this is a piece of fat. Hurry up and prepare, as soon as the Xuanyuan Army arrives, send a signal to release arrows!"

Jiang Li led the army to ambush in the valley for more than half an hour, and he was already impatient, and when he heard that the Xuanyuan army had entered the valley, he couldn't wait to catch them all.

"Wait......"

The soldier turned around and was about to deliver the order, when Zikui was urgently recalled.

"You just said that they are all generals of the Green Silver Qi Realm, how did you know that?"

"They all have torches in their hands, and we can clearly see the armor on them, and there is nothing wrong with that. "The soldiers are very sure of their military reports.

"Don't act rashly, this is Xuanyuan Heng's pathfinder, you must not startle the snake, let them be aware, quickly, go and give orders. ”

Zikui found the clue and instructed cautiously.

"Yes!"

After the soldiers left, Zikui gasped.

He held his chin in his hand and silently recited in his heart: "General Gao Qing ordered someone to spread the word, the Xuanyuan army took advantage and retreated, I don't know the reason, now they are entering the valley with great fanfare, and they are all masters in the Xuanyuan army, how can there be such a cheap thing." When I was studying in Yuanzong, I knew that you were proficient in calculations, and now you have the name of 'God of War', in such a steep valley, how can you be unguarded, and if you want to take a few hundred silver armor to throw stones and ask for directions, my son Kui is not so easy to deceive. ”

Thinking of this, Zikui breathed a long sigh of relief, a smug smile appeared on his face, and he was very glad that he could see through Xuanyuanheng's strategy in time.

In this way, as Xuanyuan Heng expected, Lanling did not send a single soldier or release an arrow, so that Xuanyuan's battalions of soldiers and horses passed through the Dayu Valley smoothly and peacefully.

Outside the Great Yu Valley, where the jungle bonfire was bright, Xuanyuan leaned on the Qilin, surrounded by him, and sitting on his knees were Xuanyuan Xing and Xuanyue.

They talked very comfortably, not caring about the large group of Nighthawk spirit beasts hovering in the night sky, nor the large expanse of fire that was constantly approaching in the jungle.

"I originally promised to celebrate your birthday today, but it looks like I'm going back late, and my father hasn't even had time to prepare a gift, Xing'er, you won't blame your father. ”

Xuanyuan looked at Xing'er horizontally, with a little guilt in his words.

Xuanyuan shook his head vigorously.

"Xing'er won't, as long as my father and mother are safe, it's Xing'er's best gift. ”

Xing'er's answer made Xuanyuan Heng sigh with emotion.

He has been on the battlefield all his life, in order to ensure Xuanyuan's health and well-being, he can't help himself, but he can't give his beloved child a happy and carefree birthday like ordinary people.

"I'll tell you a story, and it's time to give Xing'er a birthday present. Xuanyuan Heng cleaned up his mood.

"Yes, yes, yes, Daddy hasn't told Xing'er a story for a long time!"

Xing'er danced and was very excited.

"Legend has it that millions of years ago, a heroic ...... appeared on the continent of Jiuzhou."

Xuanyuan Xing held his chin in his hands and listened attentively to his father's narration, but Yu Yue was listening and observing the surrounding situation attentively.

"Uncle Heng, Uncle Heng, we should be surrounded by them!"

She found that the jungle outside the ring of fire was already full of dense points of light, and the cold outline of the soldier's armor was clearly visible under the firelight, which couldn't help but make her nervous.

"Oh, we're a little scared Yue'er, and Xing'er is scared too?" said Xuanyuan with a smile.

"With Daddy here, Xing'er is not scared at all. ”

Xuanyuan Xing took his father's arm with one hand and Yue'er with the other, and then said, "Sister Yue, don't be afraid, there are stars to protect you." ”

As soon as these words came out, Yu Yue was a little unhappy.

"Who wants you to protect me, and some people don't want to cry like they did just now! I just don't understand why so many soldiers in the jungle are just gathered outside, and they don't rush out. Xing'er, haven't you memorized so many military books, you are going to talk about it!"

"Sister Yue, where is this used in the military book, at a glance, you can know that this is the vanguard, they are waiting for the main general of the army and the main force behind. ”

Regulus said proudly. "Plus they are surrounded, but my father, Xuanyuan's god of war, do you think they are the first to rush in!"

Xuanyuan Heng saw the cute appearance of the two children when they were arguing, and shook his head again and again and laughed, which can be regarded as enjoyable.

"Leave them alone, let's move on, by the way, where did you just go?"

Regulus diverted the subject.

"Daddy talked about the armor of the creation of Fuxi. ”

Regulus's eyes widened, waiting for the rest of the story.

"Yes, yes, yes, the battle armor, this creation Fuxi, but the Holy King of Jiuzhou, legend has it that he has a beautiful armor, the name is 'Dragon Scale Golden Armor'......"

"Hmph, it's really our famous Xuanyuan God of War. ”

Yang Minghao led the army to arrive quickly, and when he saw the target in the ring of fire, he was a little complacent.

"Xuanyuan Heng, I see where else you can escape!"

Xuanyuan Heng didn't care about Yang Minghao's mockery, and he didn't rush to talk.

After slowly getting up, he put the two children on the back of the unicorn, stroked their heads, and whispered: "Wait a while! ”

After speaking, he turned around and walked to the "God of War" banner with a solemn expression.

"You are Elder Yang Minghao of the Qi Sect, right? ”

"Oh! God of War has good eyesight. Although my hedgehog beast is not as famous as your one-horned unicorn, it can be regarded as having ancient blood, and with the spirit beast armor refined by our Qi Sect's unique technique, its attack and defense have been greatly improved. ”

Speaking of his spirit beast, Yang Minghao was a little proud.

Looking at this hedgehog beast again, it is indeed extraordinary, not only is it huge and similar to a unicorn, but the armor on its body is also extremely chic.

Except for the slightly larger scales, they are almost identical to the scales that grow naturally from unicorns.

The two long horns wrapped in gold armor on the head are extremely sharp, and under the illumination of the flames, they shine brightly, so that they are not dazzling.

"Escape, if I want to leave, I'm afraid it won't be enough with your tens of thousands of horses. Elder Yang, if it weren't for these fires, I'm afraid you would still be wandering around the jungle right now! I'm not running away, I'm waiting, hey! I've been waiting for a long time. ”

Xuanyuan patted the dust on his body, with a disdainful expression on his face, and returned a tooth for a tooth, turned to sarcasm, and poured a basin of cold water on Yang Minghao.

"You ......"

Hearing this, Yang Minghao remembered the scene in the jungle, when the army was harassed many times and he was teased several times, and he was full of chagrin, and he was speechless for a while.

"Xuanyuan Heng, don't be rampant, today is your death!"

Jiang Li, who arrived immediately, was full of anger, gritted his teeth, and wanted to slash the enemy immediately.

"Hmph, of course, you won't run away. Xuanyuan's army is still in the jungle, how can you, Xuanyuan's god of war, be a turtle with a shrunken head! Just because you want to block our tens of thousands of horses, the god of war may be a little arrogant! What's more, with your current injury, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take Elder Yang's blow. Otherwise, if you abandon your sword and surrender, we can leave you a whole corpse. ”

"Good you scoundrel, dare to humiliate Daddy!"

Xuanyuan Xing, who was on the back of the one-horned unicorn, naturally heard Jiang Li's vicious words, bit his lip, clenched his fists with his small hands, and was about to rush forward when he was pulled by Yu Yue.

"Xing'er sit down, Uncle Heng told us not to move, you run over, you can only add to the chaos. Xuanyuan Xing's persuasion calmed down, and he had no choice but to hold back his anger and watch coldly.

Facing Jiang Li, who was angry, Xuanyuan Heng seemed very calm.

"Hehe, Jiang Junshi hasn't seen him for ten years, don't come unharmed. Xuanyuan shook his head and chuckled, and continued: "It seems that the military advisor is still obsessed with the events of the past! Do you know that this is not a personal grudge between you and me, but a ruthless ...... on the battlefield."

"Hugh is going to tell me about ten years ago!"

Jiang Li, who was in a state of rage, snatched the conversation.

"If it weren't for you, how could my uncle and cousin have died tragically, I'...... How can I be reduced to this? Today, I will make you pay with blood!"

Thinking that after the First World War, the Jiang family's reputation was no longer and declining, and after he was seriously injured, he lost his strength and his legs were disabled, Jiang Li felt deeply distressed.

"What a blood debt and blood repayment, back then, your Chiyan army invaded my Xuanyuan territory and killed the people of Xuanyuan, and my Xuanyuan soldiers defended their families and defended the country with countless casualties, dare to ask Jiang Junshi, who should repay such a blood debt?"

Thinking of the war that year, Xuanyuan Heng also became a little indignant, but he quickly adjusted his emotions.

"Your Jiang family is a master of three masters, and you are praised by the world. Your uncle Jiang Si, a generation of famous generals, is famous in Jiuzhou;

Your cousin Jiang Zhao is both civil and military, and he is a hero, and you Jiang Li is even more resourceful...... Heng has always been with a little respect. But back then, it was you who relied on the great power of the flames and ordered a million coalition troops to occupy half of my mountains and rivers. In order to protect my Xuanyuan capital, I made a plan to besiege you in 'Jishan', the old general and his son both died on the battlefield, and you also ended up in the current ending, the general did not introspect and self-police, but blindly shouted revenge, don't you know, the source of this disaster, is the endless killing of the flames.

Today, 10 years later, you have followed these tens of thousands of living soldiers here, do you still have to be obsessed with the mistakes of the past? How many innocent lives do you have to bury and how many soldiers have to sacrifice in vain, so that it can be regarded as blood debt and blood payment?

At this time, although Jiang Li was full of righteous indignation, he also heard every word Xuanyuan Heng said clearly, and he could no longer see the surging mood on his face, but the contradictions in his heart were still surging.

When the opportunity he had been waiting for for many years came as scheduled, and when the enemy he had been looking for was close at hand, Jiang Li felt unprecedentedly confused.

The hatred of ten years ago, the humiliation of ten years, who caused it, he didn't know, what was the blood debt and blood payment, and he was also vague.

"Strategist, don't talk nonsense with him, Xuanyuan Heng is delaying time again, if we continue to talk, Xuanyuan's army will have run away long ago!" Yang Minghao saw that Jiang Li was uncertain, and hurriedly reminded.

"Elder, you are wrong again! I am not stalling for time, but buying time for your withdrawal of troops!"

Xuanyuan took Yang Minghao's words.

"Jiang Junshi is proficient in the art of war, you should know that this Dayu Valley is an excellent ambush location, I have already ambushed 50,000 soldiers and horses, if you insist on chasing after you, you are just throwing yourself into a net and seeking your own death. ”

"Xuanyuan Heng, don't be alarmist, if there is an ambush, you will kindly remind us, don't say that you are powerless to set up an ambush, even if there is, I will never let you go. All the soldiers obey the order, and those who can kill Xuanyuan Heng and capture the one-horned unicorn alive will be rewarded!

Yang Minghao didn't wait for Jiang Li to speak, and immediately ordered.

Xuanyuan Heng saw the nighthawk in the sky swooping down, and a large number of sergeants in the jungle rushed up, and he did not feel the slightest nervousness.

He delicately held the God of War Banner in his hand, and tapped the ground with his left foot, and a red Yuan Force wave was released from the ground in an arc.

When the light came into contact with the surrounding bonfire, the flames suddenly roared up, and the fiery tongue of fire emitted extremely high temperatures, keeping all the coalition soldiers out.

Subsequently, a dashing sideways, soaring Xuanyuan Heng, was already sitting on the back of a unicorn unicorn.

"It's not good, Xuanyuan Heng wants to escape!"

Jiang Li suddenly woke up from his trance.

Whether it is for revenge or for the great plan of Chiyan, he hopes that Xuanyuan Heng will die, and he believes that if there is no Xuanyuan Heng, there will be no Xuanyuan Country, and the plan to unify Jiuzhou will be unimpeded.

In a hurry, he reminded Yang Minghao beside him loudly, hoping that he could do it quickly.

"Elder Yang, Jiang Junshi, the way of using soldiers, the truth is false, the virtual is real, you don't listen to Heng's persuasion, you insist on doing it, you will definitely regret it!"

After finishing speaking, Xuanyuan Heng, who was riding on the back of a unicorn unicorn, waved his right arm vigorously, and a powerful suction force sprayed out, introducing more than a dozen wooden sticks and firewood in the bonfire into the air.

In the sight of the surrounding coalition forces, only a huge cylinder with a diameter of more than ten meters and surrounded by firelight could be seen.

Before everyone could react, Xuanyuan swung his long arm violently, and countless burning sawdust weeds, with scorching firelight, poured down towards the front of the unicorn unicorn, like waves of red waves, and rushed straight towards the coalition soldiers who were surrounded in front.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of soldiers had been hit and fell to the ground, covered with charcoal fire, and severe burns, leaving them in agony.

The whole process took less than half a minute, and before Yang Minghao could make a move, Xuanyuan Heng had already driven the one-horned unicorn and galloped away from the broken gap in the encirclement.

"Chase, chase me quickly, you must not let Xuanyuan Heng leave alive. ”

Yang Minghao thought that if he killed Xuanyuan Heng at this time, he could capture it with his hands and effortlessly, but he didn't expect him to break through so easily.

Moreover, as if everything was pre-arranged, this feeling of being led by the nose and completely passive made him extremely annoyed by the calculating.

He rode a spirit beast and rushed to the forefront of the army, chasing quickly, Jiang Li and a large number of soldiers and horses followed.

In this way, it was vaguely visible in the jungle, two huge spirit beasts less than a hundred meters apart, rushing quickly one after the other.

Behind them, a patch of torches shuttled through the foliage, staining the mountains red.

Within a few minutes, the unicorn had already rushed to the mouth of the Great Yu Valley.

"Xing'er, Yue'er, you have to sit tight, you are about to enter the valley. Ahem......"

After Xuanyuan Heng instructed the two children, he released his Yuan Force again, condensing a fiery red spherical light mask, and enveloping Qilin and the three of them.

A large amount of Yuan Force was consumed, which made him cough softly unconsciously.

"Uncle Heng, your injuries have worsened again! Just now in the Falling God Peak, in order to protect Xuanyuan's soldiers, they also released such a protective shield, which will definitely require a lot of Yuan Force. Uncle Heng, in fact, you don't have to do this, Xing'er and I can protect ourselves. ”

Yan Yue, who was sitting in the middle, heard Xuanyuan Heng's cough for the first time, and was very worried, so she turned around and persuaded her.

"Yes, Daddy, we can protect ourselves. ”

Xuanyuan Xing also echoed, he sat at the front, naturally he didn't hear Xuanyuan Heng's cough due to the aggravation of his injury, but from Yue'er's caring words, he could also feel a trace of worry.

"Yue'er, don't worry, Uncle Heng is fine. Yuan Force, Uncle Heng is a lot, condensing this Yuan Force shield is still more than enough, and you will understand when you cultivate to the Pure Gold Qi Realm in the future. ”

Xuanyuan Heng didn't want the two children to worry about themselves, shook the flag in his hand, deliberately made a very relaxed appearance, and continued: "What's more, the battlefield is dangerous, the sword has no eyes, there are 50,000 Lanling troops in ambush in this valley, and the coalition army led by Yang Minghao and Jiang Li in the back is in hot pursuit, and the battle situation is unpredictable in a while, so we must be careful." ”

The two children nodded silently, staring coldly at the hazy and deep Dayu Valley in the moonlight.

In fact, Xuanyuan Heng activated the Yuan Force Cover, not only to protect Xing'er and Yue'er, but also to tell Lanling's explorers: Xuanyuan Heng is here!

Because, the red light released by the Yuanli shield is extremely eye-catching in the valley, and the one-horned unicorn in the ball of light can be clearly seen from a distance of thousands of kilometers.

What's more, Xuanyuan Heng also deliberately held the "God of War" banner high in his hand, I am afraid that no matter how stupid the Lanling explorers are, they can also judge the identity of the people who enter and leave the valley.

And the Lanling State Shizi Kui, who had already received the military report, through all this, had already judged that it was the main army led by Xuanyuan Heng who entered the valley, and hoped that after this battle, the Xuanyuan army would be severely damaged and the defeat would turn into victory.

He had already set up his position, and waited patiently for Xuanyuan to cross the middle of the Great Yu Valley.
