"Haven't heard ......"

Kai Yin crawled and rolled out, supporting his exhausted body out of the hill that had turned into a black river.

The earth spirit didn't know how to answer, so he left the matter behind.

He felt something in his heart, and when he looked back, he happened to see the fog behind him rolling wildly, seeping into the dirt, as if being sucked into the earth along a funnel, and disappeared without a trace.

Qi Yin wiped his eyes, wiped the mud from his long hair hanging down, and looked up, only to see that the mist and smoke were fleeting, and the rivers and hills were gone, only a barren field, no different from this nameless wasteland.

"What the hell. ”

He muttered, it turned out that what he saw from the beginning was a trap, but fortunately, there was not much danger, and he didn't give an account for his life.

Although the ghost river and ghost mound were gone, he still cautiously escaped for a few miles, and only then did he find a stone to block the wind and prepare to spend the night.

Just as he was setting up a fire to bake his stinking robes, there was a slight tremor in the ground, and he looked around.

But I saw hundreds of black shadows galloping wildly in the night, like thunder.

The sound of thousands of horses' hooves stomping on the ground had just reached his ears, and he couldn't allow him to put out the fire and hide it, but he was surrounded by the group of black horses and black-armored warriors, and dozens of iron spears were shining with cold light, against Qi Yin's throat, so that he didn't dare to make a sound, staring wide-eyed, and didn't even dare to put down the handful of loess he was holding in his hand.

The end of the iron spear is a strong and majestic man, in the cool breeze of the night, Qi Yin seems to be able to see the anger from their eyebrows, he has never seen such a fierce and murderous sergeant in the Sheep Horn Pass, but he is afraid that his father's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can not help these hundreds of people to rush and kill several times.

"These black-armored people are all in the realm of rebirth. The earth spirit whispered in his robe.

Qi Yin was a little anxious and short of breath, and he was afraid that he would not be able to get the slightest advantage even if he called out Hongyan.

"Everyone, everyone, Xiaosheng has to look at the wild people of the country, and he has eyes and beads passing by the noble treasure land, but which military master did he collide with?"

He loosened the fire-fighting sand, carefully tapped a spear blade to his throat, and seeing that the sergeant was indifferent, he hurriedly said, pretending to be lost.

The first sergeants saw that he was unkempt and in tattered clothes, and that he was quite articulate and could inquire a few words, so they put away their iron spears and stepped aside, and a tall horse carrying a sergeant without a helmet came out of the crowd.

Seeing that he was not as neat and meticulous as the other sergeants, Qi Yin was a little casual, and he was sure that he was the leader of this mysterious black armor army.

So he opened his mouth and said, "This king, what do you command?"

He didn't know why the group of people in front of him surrounded him, but he knew that the more people who talked, the more afraid they were of death, and when the other party saw him like this, his defense would be lightened, and he would have a chance to take advantage of it.

When the sergeant heard this, he laughed out loud, "Your doll is interesting, I am no different from the sergeants, and you actually call me the king?"

"I didn't know where your military masters suddenly appeared, I thought that this night the dark wind was high and met the bandits, and in a hurry, I called the king to beg for mercy, and asked you not to laugh at me. ”

Qi Yin's face turned red, and he said.

Seeing this, the leading sergeant laughed again, raised his hand and motioned for his men to put away their weapons and take a few steps back.

And he turned over and dismounted, approached and pulled Qiyin, and found that the black-faced boy was no different in size from a teenager, so he asked:

"Child, what's your name, isn't it a man who makes a fire in this wasteland at night, and isn't he afraid of wolves?"

Qi Yin thanked him and said: "I am a vagrant in the area of Sheephorn Pass, and I had to flee to other places after the war, and I lost my horse during the day, and now I have to sleep here all night, ready to leave tomorrow." ”

With that, he took out the thorn from his sleeve and handed it to the black-armored soldier who had interrogated him.

"Dewang Xiaomin, Qiyin? It's a good name, your surname is not the surname of the three major clans of Dewang Country. ”

The soldier took it and looked at it, handed it back to him, and said, "Soldiers don't easily expose the origin of the country outside, so you can call me Xiao Tong." ”

Xiao Tong looked up and looked around, but he didn't find anything strange here, so he asked Qiyin:

"Just now, I felt from a distance that a huge and incomparable dark attribute telekinesis near here suddenly disappeared, you are close, do you know something?"

Xiao Tong saw that he was just an ordinary child of the Star Gate Realm, although he was a little surprised that he was so immature but his mental power was quite pure, far from being comparable to the teenagers of ordinary families, but he didn't take it to heart, after all, the three hundred people here are all in the Rebirth Realm, and the chief and deputy Wu Commanders are even more in the Sitong Realm, how can they care about his identity as a Star Gate Realm.

"It was the sudden appearance and disappearance of the yin mist that frightened my horse away, causing me to fall off my horse and into the mire. I don't know if it's superfluous. ”

Qi Yin pretended to be annoyed and said indignantly.

Xiao Tong looked at him and didn't find any clues, so he didn't ask any more.

"Where are you going? I don't mind picking you up on the way. ”

Qi Yin was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "My father said that the feather tribe is not involved in too much war, let me go there to avoid it, and wait a while to find me there." ”

He paused and said, "Commander Xiao, your war horses are majestic and arrogant, I'm afraid you don't want to take me, so let me walk by myself for a few days, and I have enough food and water." ”

Xiao Tong laughed again when he heard this, "Why is your kid talking so interesting? Obviously, he dislikes us and can't sit down with you." ”

"We just happened to go to the Feather Cloak Tribe to make some trades, and it will take more than ten days to ride a horse, wouldn't it be dangerous for a child of you to go there on foot? ”

After that, he turned around and ordered, "Which of you would like to give this little brother a ride?"

A few horses were driven out of the military column, and they all said yes.

Qi Yin saw that he couldn't excuse himself, and considering that it would really take him time to walk over, he nodded and thanked him.

"Okay, let's camp here tonight and rest for the night, and then set off for Starcliff Mountain tomorrow morning. ”

Xiao Tong's voice was like thunder, and he shouted a few words of orders to his subordinates, and those sergeants got the order, so they got off their horses and set up camp, lit a few bonfires, and sent dozens of sergeants to search around for ten miles, and only after finding no abnormalities did they take off their guards.

Seeing this, Qi Yin was worried, these sergeants were highly powerful and disciplined, but they were afraid that they would not find a way to slip away, and it was estimated that they would have to go on the road with them in the next ten days.

But Hong Yan was very happy and said, "It's much more fun now, these soldiers are from unknown origins, and there will definitely be a good show to watch next." ”

......

Qi Yin followed an uncle who had searched the surroundings to find a waterhole, washed off the black mud all over his body, and changed his clothes before he sat down by the campfire and sat in a seat vacated for him by Xiao Tong.

He deliberately asked, "Aren't you afraid of being discovered by some nocturnal orcs who light a bonfire and come to make trouble in the middle of the night?"

At this time, everyone was noisy, and there was no seriousness on the horse, so a black-bearded man next to him interjected: "There is a formation around the barracks, and the fire inside cannot be seen clearly from the outside, and if a wild beast passes by, it will also touch the formation." ”

Hearing this, Qi Yin sighed secretly that it was indeed the case, and it was not feasible to escape in the night.

Xiao Tong, who was on the side, poked the pheasant roasting on the fire and asked, "Little Brother Qiyin, have you just seen a moonlight that reaches the sky?"

Only then did Qi Yin understand his intention, so he shook his head and wondered, "What moonlight?

Xiao Tong stared at his eyes carefully, and didn't see if he was a fake, so he didn't ask any more, "I don't know, it's just related to the moon and stars, it must not be a vulgar thing." ”

On the contrary, he was stared at by the big eyes of this beautiful boy with willow eyebrows, he looked at Qiyin and said, "Little brother Qiyin is also white-clothed and white-robed when he goes out of the wasteland, and you are also quite good at cultivation. ”

At this time, Qi Yin was dressed like a white-faced scholar, with a pair of eyebrows and crooked eyes, which was a little good-looking and pleasing.

"The big clan doesn't dare to be, but my father guards the Sheep Horn Pass all the year round, leaving a few small assets for me to learn, and I also want to learn from the noble children in the city to pretend to be dusty, so that the uncles laugh. ”

The sergeants sitting around several campfires heard him say this, and knew his origins, but they did not think that he was as ignorant as those rich children who looked above the hard work of the unpaid war, so they gradually chatted more, and they liked this little scholar with a bit of military spirit even more.

And the long night was long, and Qi Yin gradually liked these straightforward and coarse men in the army as those merry sergeants ate meat and drank wine.

Thinking about it carefully, he encountered the war on the first night of Sheephorn Pass, and after that, the night in the army was mostly tense or recuperating from his injuries and resting, but he rarely drank and talked with his military comrades.

"How old is the little brother? Aren't you afraid of your dad spanking you when you drink indiscriminately?"

A drunken white-haired uncle teased him, causing everyone around him to laugh, and Qiyin was about to refute, but saw the uncle fall to the ground drunk, smashed his forehead, and was dragged away by several other soldiers, and everyone laughed even more.

Qi Yin took a slight sip of the liquor in the water bladder, feeling a little uncomfortable like a fire in his throat, so he didn't see it, pulled up a chicken leg, said goodbye to Xiao Tong and the others, and walked to the waterhole next to the camp, intending to get some water to kill the wine.

"Sure enough, you still can't drink indiscriminately. ”

At this time, he was a little confused, but he was a little drunk.

When he approached the waterhole, he found a woman with her hair and armor sitting in the grass on the shore, staring blankly at the moon in the water with her chin propped up.

Qi Yin recognized that this young girl was one of the few sergeants who had just arrived on horseback, and she was also the only female soldier in the army, and she heard that she was the daughter of the bold Xiao Tong leader.

"Sister Xiao Xuan. ”

Qi Yin called out and walked straight forward.

The girl straightened up and turned to look at him.

"Oh, it's little brother Qiyin, what are you doing here?"

Qi Yin was panicked by this beautiful girl with sharp eyes and heroic eyebrows, and then remembered that she was still carrying chicken legs in her hands, so she hurriedly threw her hands away and smiled embarrassedly.

"I was fed a few sips of wine by my uncles, and I came here to get some water to drink. Qi Yin laughed, approached the edge of the pool, reached out and picked up a pool of water, washed his face indiscriminately, and wiped it clean before walking over, sitting next to Xiao Xuan far away.

Xiao Xuan felt funny, so she beckoned him to sit closer.

"I'm not like those boudoir women who pretend to be reserved, and it doesn't hurt for Brother Qi to sit closer. ”

Seeing that she changed her words so quickly, Qi Yin had to praise that the woman was really much more bold than the little girls in the school, so she simply walked down and talked to her.

"Sister Xuan, I heard Uncle Xiao Tong say that your Xuanwu Army is going to the Feather Cloak Tribe to participate in a transaction. Dare to ask the Xuanwu Army, but is it the famous Xuanwu Army?"

Xiao Xuan looked at this smart and talkative little ghost, and saw that there was only curiosity in his eyes, so he nodded.

"We are indeed soldiers of the Xuanwu Kingdom, and we are here by order. It's a pity that the country of hope is facing war, which will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble, so I took a detour to Xingya Mountain, and I didn't know how much travel in vain. ”

Qi Yin saw her puffing out her cheeks, a little helpless, but remembered her map of all countries.

"The Xuanwu Kingdom seems to be in the northwest of Shentou Valley and Shenren Peak, and although the Yuyi tribe on the edge of Shentou Valley is the closest path, it will take many months to ride a horse. ”

He suddenly felt in his heart, no wonder this big sister was a little discouraged, it turned out that she had been marching for several months, and walking with her uncles in the army was inevitably a little boring, I was afraid that she would not enter the city on the road, and the distance she would cross would be farther.

Qi Yin has never been to those main cities to play, can't help but yearn for a little, the little Wangshan County and the two border passes are all he has seen in his life, he suddenly longed to go to the big city to play, so he was a little excited, chatted with Xiao Xuan, and asked about many things in the Xuanwu Kingdom......

Qiyin didn't have many secrets, and Xuanwu and Dewang didn't have too many disputes, so he had no scruples, and casually chatted with this big sister who was very good-looking with a smile, and talked about his many pasts.

And Xiao Xuan didn't have friends younger than him in the army, so his sorrow gradually thinned, and he laughed and laughed with Qiyin, and even used two swordsmanship, using the saber hanging from his waist to dance a few sword flowers, and taught Qiyin for half an hour before he went back to the camp to rest.

"Hehe, you haven't seen a woman, why don't you put yourself in the water and look at how lewd your smile is?"

Qi Yin stood by the waterhole, a little excited, and a little relaxed.

At this time, he heard the earth spirit in his clothes mocking him, so he poked his head into the water, and sure enough, he saw that the corners of his mouth were about to reach behind his ears, and he quickly shook his head, a little panicked.

No wonder those uncles said that women were a curse, and they almost exhausted my heroic arrogance. ”

As soon as these words came out, the earth spirit and Hong Yan, who had been awake for a long time, laughed out loud, making fun of this stupid fourteen-year-old boy, but the two didn't say more, but listened to Qiyin and Xiao Xuan chatting for a long time, and finally swept away the nervous aura of encountering ghosts in the evening, which was a little leisurely.

In addition to Qi Yin's description of the battle with the Earth Spirit as a yellow-skinned beast that angered him, he beat him and fled, which made the Earth Spirit a little dissatisfied, but he thought that he was not only beaten violently but also became a prisoner, so he ignored Qi Yin and opened his mouth, not to talk about himself.

Qi Yin smiled with them, and also felt tired, so he went back to the camp camp fire to find a clean and refreshing open space that could blow the night breeze, politely refused the kindness of the soldiers to vacate the camp tent, lay down on the spot to rest, and spent the most relaxing and comfortable night since leaving Wangshan County.

And Hongyan, no matter what, also watched the night for the sleeping Qiyin, regardless of the soul injury that made him sleepy.

The earth spirit also leaned close to the ground by Qi Yin's neck, constantly trying to absorb the earth qi, although to no avail.

Firelight, cool breeze, a night of peace......
