Chapter 9: Invisible Shackles
As soon as Song Nian said this, Gao Laoxi laughed, diverted the topic, and stopped mentioning this section.
However, when Song Nian was leaving, he also saw Gao Laoxi instructing his subordinates to be lighter and not to damage the sacrifice.
Back in the camp, Song Nian asked Chu He: "What changes have happened to those people's eyes on you?" ”
Chu He thought for a moment, and then said, "There shouldn't be." ”
Song Nian nodded and said: "Although you are the commander of the Black Armor Army, I guess there are not many people who really know you, even the people in the county seat and Jiuyuan Mansion actually don't know you much, they just look at the bright and beautiful clothes." ”
Song Nian said this, Chu He's face darkened, and he said, "Okay, let's wash off the color on my face." “
It turned out that Song Nian asked his subordinates Hu Ren for some grease and the like, and adjusted the color to wipe Chu He's face sallow.
Song Nian nodded lightly and said to Chu He: "Leave a piece next to your ear, it will be useful tomorrow." ”
Chu He was puzzled, but he still copied it.
Then, Song Nian used a knife to carefully trim Chu He's hair and cheeks, shaved his sideburns short, and his original clean and beardless face was also shaved hard, and the shaved was red, before letting Chu He go.
"Why is that?" Chu He touched his cheeks, quite puzzled.
"Hehe, you'll find out in a few days."
In the next few days, Song Nian took Chu He to Gao Laoxi's side every day to help his "sacrifice" see a doctor.
Every time Song Nian looked forward to these sacrifices, Gao Laoxi showed a bitter face, especially when he saw that these sacrifices actually gave Song Nian a heartfelt love and grateful smile, he hid his face and couldn't bear to look at it directly.
Maybe even a cruel person like Gao Laoxi can't get used to Song Nian giving him such a way to "let the corpse's body speak", but he also exchanged the other party's favorite spell, it is too evil, and those sacrifices are too pitiful.
Because of Song Nian's heavy practices, the Chu River on the side changed little by little every day, and it was not noticed by everyone.
Until one day, Chu He also became the same as the Hu people, his face was yellow and black, black and yellow, half of his hair was shaved, his head was full of pigtails, and his right arm was full of Hu people, and the people around him did not find anything wrong, but felt that this was normal.
And Chu He also followed Song Nian's suggestion, messing with these Hu people every day, and his speech and demeanor became like Hu people, becoming more and more "invisible".
Successfully creating a new identity and successfully integrating into this crowd can completely disappear from the sight of others.
This is the masterpiece that Song Nian is most proud of recently.
This is the "shackles of the heart".
……
In this way, the two teams merged into one, mixed together, and headed towards the great lake to the north.
Song Nian's team was slowed down...... Because Song Nian's subordinates were all riders, with about two horses per capita, the speed was naturally extremely fast.
The speed on Gao Laoxi's side was raised.
These days, he gradually loosened the control of the "sacrifice", that is, the black-armored sergeant, and untied the shackles.
This made the body of the black armor soldier recover quickly.
Although he still didn't take off his mask, Song Nian also saw familiar figures from them......
Although the body recovered quickly, which made the marching speed of the sacrifices much faster, the two legs were not as fast as the four legs.
It's just that...... This time, Song Nian didn't offer to let them ride horses either.
Because...... Gao Laoxi will never agree to this matter, the Black Armor Army is cavalry...... Once they have the horses, they are afraid that they will flee completely.
Seeing that the body of the black-armored sergeant was getting better day by day, Chu He's mind also became restless.
He hinted more than once that Song Nian could cooperate with the inside and outside, kill Gao Laoxi, and seize control of the team.
At that time, whether it is to continue to go north or return to Dayong in the south, he will be very confident.
But Song Nian was always ambiguous and did not agree to Chu He.
Just as the Chu River was getting more and more impatient, the team marched near a small mound.
This mound is only seven or eight feet high, and the terrain is flat, but in the grassland, it can already be called a mountain.
This is also a nearby landmark, which has a name called Hulegang.
When Song Nian and Gao Laoxi walked around Hulegang while talking and laughing, the dense Hu people in front of them shocked Song Nian's heart.
"Hahaha, how about it, isn't there a lot of people, these people are all summoned by an order of this god." Gao Laoxi looked at this scene and said proudly.
"These? Are they all sacrifices? Song Nian stabilized his mind and asked pretending to be surprised.
But she was scolded in her heart.
The main thing is to scold Chu River.
I think about doing it every day, this person has been messing with us for more than half a month, and you don't even know when they will send the signal.
That's it, still thinking about seizing the power of Gao Laoxi every day?
This guy who looks harmless to humans and animals with a smile all day long, Song Nian doesn't believe that he is really a stupid white sweet.
At present, in Song Nian's view, it is Gao Laoxi silently showing his strength.
Song Nian showed his strength, so Gao Laoxi must also play a hole card, so that he and Song Nian continue to maintain an evenly matched situation.
"These are not sacrifices, but ...... Sacrificial seeds. Gao Laoxi proudly pointed to the banners held high in the hands of these Hu people: "I learned a little craft from Zhu Shenzhi from you, and told these Hu tribes that this year there will be a horse racing conference, and the five tribes will draw lots as a group, the best one does not need to hand over the sacrifice, the second winner only needs to hand in the past half of the sacrifice, and the losing side, the worst one has to pay double, and the second one, also pay one and a half times the tribute." As for the tribe in the middle, it will remain as it is. As for the participants, they are the sacrifices that were originally scheduled by the various tribes. ”
Song Nian praised: "This method is powerful, in this way, the person who is chosen as a tribute will hate the opponent, hate the clansmen who are also competing for not working hard, and hate their own poor means...... Always, it will not hate the heads of our gods and high gods. ”
Gao Laoxi smiled: "Sacrifice ugliness." ”
Song Nian changed his words, but then said: "But if I design it, then I will give double the quota for the first place, and let them choose and send suitable children to the Divine Sect, and the rest, the last one, cannot send anyone to the Divine Sect General Altar." ”
Chu He, who was following behind the two, was stunned for a while: "This, isn't this that everyone is lazy and competes, and no one is competing for the first place?" What's the point of the game? ”
Gao Laoxi clapped his hands and laughed: "Sure enough, it is worthy of being a high god, this change is indeed better, in this way, not only no one resents, but I am afraid, but we are also grateful." ”
