Chapter 28: Water boils

King Wei hurriedly said: "I didn't do the thing of setting fire to the branch!" ”

"I know!" Fake Liu spoke in a low voice, with a lot of helplessness in his expression. Literature Junkie .γ€Ž

King Wei didn't want to be entangled in this matter, so he directly sent someone to dig up the foundation of the other courtyard, and found the ghost yawu arsenal according to the instructions of the fake Liu.

When he watched the teams of elite soldiers constantly transporting standard magic weapons outward, he couldn't help but chant again and again, and was extremely shocked.

Even Xie Bangui's heart was stirring up a huge wave, he heard that his fathers had talked about the past scenery of the ghost ya, but he only thought that it was the old man's memory of the past after drinking, and he never thought that the strength of the ghost ya would be so strong. The arsenal of a Lianzhou branch can provide a complete set of magic weapons for 3,000 people, so how strong should the Ghost Ya Headquarters be back then?

The fake Liu didn't even say hello and got into the Wuli Warehouse, and only after half an hour did he walk out with a knife box in his face, and kept wiping the dust on the knife box with his sleeve as he walked: "Little drunkard, this is your Uncle Wang's relic 'Crying Blood Chop', you stay!" I know you don't know how to use a knife...... Forget it, let's leave it alone! ”

Xie Bangui solemnly took the knife case, took out the Burmese knife inside with both hands, and looked at it carefully. This Burmese knife is three feet long and four inches wide, and the blade is as thin as a silkworm wing, straight and straight without bending, but it has a cold murderous aura in its flexibility.

The strange thing is that the gauntlet of this peerless murder weapon is actually a beauty carved from white jade, the white jade beauty rests her head and arm on her side on the blade, the form is lifelike, and the two blood-red traces overflowing from the corner of the beauty's eyes meander down the blade to the tip of the knife, which at first glance looks like two lines of blood and tears shed by the beauty.

The fake Liu deliberately didn't turn his head not to look at the long knife, and he didn't let people see his expression, but the tears in his eyes did not escape Xie Bangui's eyes. Xie Bangui solemnly bent the Burmese knife in a circle and tied it around his waist.

Mei Xin'er whispered: "What a strange knife! Was the person who used to use this knife very powerful? ”

Xie Bangui glanced at Mei Xin'er without making a sound, and the fake Liu raised his eyes to the sky with a long sigh, as if he was remembering, as if he was reminiscing.

Lao Qian whispered: "In the past, in addition to the 'Immortal Official God Catches Shen Fuyi' and 'Bloody Hands Lingguan Jun Mo Xiao', there are also eight masters of 'Zhang Wang, Li Zhao everywhere Liu, rooster and black dog and a pot of wine', collectively known as the Eight Generals of the Ghost Ya. The previous owner of that knife was the King of Quick Knives. Among these eight people, only Xie Bangui's master, 'Soul Claw Aged Wine', became famous the latest. The other seven people are surprisingly high, if you count them seriously, your Lingya's current leaders are all the descendants of 'Zhang Wang, Li Zhao, and Liu'. ”

Mei Xin'er exclaimed: "So powerful! ”

"Hey! The immortal official disappeared, the spirit official died in battle, and the eight generals of the ghost yaya also withered one after another, and the ghost yaya was no longer the glory of the past. Although Lao Qian is not a ghost Yazhong, he is just as embarrassed.

In less than two days, the newly equipped Xiao Cavalry Guard, 3,000 horses, followed Xie Bangui to the source of the Zhenshui River.

As soon as Xie Bangui got on the horse, he took out two balls of cotton from his pocket and blocked his ears tightly, Gao Fatzi and the others felt inexplicable at first, and then realized how wise Xie Bangui's approach was - the fake Liu's words were simply more terrible than ghosts, even if no one accosted him, he himself could speak for half an hour, regardless of whether the person he spoke to listened or not.

Finally, the fake Liu turned his head to Sun Qianhu, who he had never spoken to, and Sun Qianhu's face twitched twice involuntarily.

The fake Liu asked a little embarrassedly: "Old Sun, why did you come to the palace as a guard?" ”

Sun Qianhu smiled bitterly: "Who doesn't want to get a background for a loose cultivator like me, who doesn't want to get a background?" The place I like, people don't look down on me. Willing to use my place, I still feel that Qu Cai, high or low, can not be low to find an errand in the palace. ”

"That's right!" Fake Liu Xiao asked, "Why don't you go to participate in the martial arts?" That's a shortcut for a martial artist to get a background! ”

"Wuju?" Sun Qianhu shook his head and said: "Wuju is not like the beginning of the founding of the country, as long as you have good martial arts, you can become an official." The current martial arts is not only a test of personal force, but also a test of martial arts. Martial arts strategy, astronomy and geography, and marching formations are all inclusive. It's even more strenuous than Kaowenju, even if an old man like me goes, at most he is a martial artist, and in the end he doesn't want to be sent to be a guard? ”

"And that said?" The fake Liu craned his neck and shouted: "That fat man, is what Lao Sun said right?" Don't pretend you can't hear, we're just a foot away, and you, a congenital martial artist, can't hear us? ”

The tall fat man rushed up with a bitter face: "Senior Sun didn't say what he said, martial arts officials must at least reach the level of a third-class martial artist, and they can only be released if they have a background." ”

"Oh?" Fake Liu said curiously: "Then how many Jinshi are you?" ”

"One list, one list." The tall fat man couldn't wait to end the conversation early, and said impatiently: "According to the imperial court official system, the top 20 Wujin scholars on the first list can serve as civilian officials above the seventh rank and below the fifth rank. That's why I got a county order. ”

"I see!" Fake Liu suddenly realized: "I thought that Lao Sun fell in love with Wei Wang's wife, so he died begging to be a palace guard!" It's boring, it's boring......"

"Flutter-" The tall fat man couldn't hold back his laughter.

Sun Qianhu's face was blue and he gritted his teeth and said, "Come on, find me a ball of cotton, and then get a piece of beeswax, I will plug my ears." ”

"Don't ......" the fake Liu waved his hand and said: "You see it's going to be dark, talk with me for half an hour!" ”

"No-" Sun Qianhu roared angrily, causing dozens of war horses to raise their front hooves and neigh, almost losing control.

"You're still serious......" Liu, a fake who was still smiling just now, suddenly turned pale and said: "Old Sun, tell the troops not to go." ”

Sun Qianhu said: "What's the matter? ”

Fake Liu's eyes kept scanning nearby, as if looking for something: "You didn't hear the sound of water?" According to the little drunkard, there is a great connection between the torture platform and the Zhenshui River, and it is about to get dark, and it is very dangerous to rush close to the riverbank. ”

Xie Bangui reined in the horse's head and said, "Listen to the voice, there should be a river behind the mountain bag." ”

Sun Qianhu beckoned the scout and asked a few simple questions, then moved out of the map and said: "You are right, after that hillside is the Zhenshui River, we have been walking on the mountain road, we have missed the last village and town, and then we should enter the no-man's land near the source of the Zhenshui." ”

"Set up camp here!" The tall fat man pointed to the high ground by the river, although the fat man was not very bold, he was a real martial artist, and the marching formation was quite orderly. The location of the camp tent is to observe that both sides of the town and water occupy a geographical point, and it is enough to deal with the enemy army. But whether it has any effect on dealing with evil things, not only is the tall fat man not clear, but Xie Bangui and Lao Liu also shook their heads.

Most of the secretaries are alone, and there are no more than five people in the occasional combination, and no one has any experience in commanding an army. As masters, they are more than enough, but as for the style of generals, they are not worthy at all, and even the supreme leader of the secret office only has the experience of commanding two or three hundred people at most, not to mention those ordinary catchers.

In the end, Gao Fatzi came up with a solution, that is, "only set up the village, uneasy camp", and ordered the sergeant to surround the village with wood, and the inside of the village was defended by an iron-armed crossbow, and the outside of the village was defended by a spirit rune. The soldiers did not use tents, but a team of twenty rested around the campfire, and from bedtime until dawn, each team had to keep a vigil of five men to keep watch over the campfire.

The soldiers of the Cavalry only knew that the opponent was not human, but they had no concept of ghosts. Although there are veterans of the Long Xiangwei who are telling them about the thrills of the first battle that day, the proud soldiers of the Xiaocai Guard are very disapproving, which of the elite of the border pass has not killed anyone, which is not a good man who crawled out of the pile of dead, but no one has ever encountered a ghost!

Xiao Cavalry Guards listened to it from the beginning, and some people joked from time to time, these Qiu Ba's mouths are not ordinary lack of morality, and they can't wait to trample people under their feet and run them over twice. made Long Xiangwei jump up one by one, and some places even began to scold.

Gao Fatzi was the one who had led the troops, and when he saw that the signs were wrong, he immediately reminded: "Senior Sun, you better come forward to stop it!" In this way, it is easy to bomb the camp. ”

Sun Qianhu also frowned: "It's easy to stop them, but if you press them hard, you may let the anger hold in your heart, and it may be even more troublesome when it breaks out." ”

"Big brother-" A cold and faint call sounded in the ears of more than 3,000 people at the same time, the sound was not loud but like a thunderclap, which shook people's scalps. The tone of the voice is not high, but it is like a cold wind piercing people's whole body.

"Who-" Many people turned around suddenly, and some even drew their weapons, but there was no one behind them except for their equally stunned companions.

"Big brotherβ€”" Another call was equally clear, even as if someone was whispering in his ear.

"Who's pretending to be a ghost there!" One soldier's voice seemed out of tune.

"Whew-" Hundreds of fires were windless and automatic, several high flames swayed non-stop, the surrounding scenery became strange, and strange shadows changed back and forth around the camp, and the shadows made people's hearts furious.

"Don't panic!" Xie Bangui stood up and shouted, "Stand with your back against the fire, and your weapon is outward." ”

"Big brother, I'm here ......" the voice rang out again.

"It's Zhang San!" Zhao stood up suddenly: "It must be his voice, where is he?" ”

Suddenly, someone pointed to the opposite bank and shouted, "On the other side of the river!" ”

Everyone looked in the direction the voice had directed.

Sure enough, there was a vague figure in the woods on the other side of the river, which looked like someone was deliberately standing behind a large tree, revealing a face half covered by his head. As time goes on, the face becomes clearer and clearer in the human eye.

In the time of a breath, dozens of zhang away, the horsemen on the other side of the river had already seen the man's ruined clothes.

With a cup of tea, the man's head hanging in front of him, the cuffs of his arms shrunk, had been clearly reflected in the pupils of the Xiao Cavalry Guard. Strangely, even though he was standing on the shore, water was constantly dripping from his tips and sleeves, as if he had just climbed up from the water.

After half a pillar of incense, the figure of the man has been moving frequently in the eyes of the Xiao Cavalry Guard, and the whole person flew into the air lightly, and the petals of the dandelion flickered on the water droplets splashed by the torrent, and the bean-sized droplets were clearly broken into large and small crystals on his toes, and he also bounced into the air with almost negligible force, and then floated towards the camp.

It's not that the horseman is so advanced that he can notice these details in the dark night, but a strange force that forcibly shoves all kinds of images into their pupils and presses them into their senses. As the figure approached, many people suddenly smelled a strange aroma.
