Chapter 320 The Ghost King of Sleepiness
In the military tent of the Moyun Army, Yun Yuhong looked at the letter sent by the Zeyu Army in her hand, and her face was solemn. The letter is from the hand of Mo Lingyu, and the meaning of the letter is: Ghost King, your son is now in my hands, if you want him to live, I will go to the top of the small lonely peak thirty miles ahead alone at noon tomorrow for a while.
Touching her slightly uplifted belly, Yun Yuhong smiled bitterly in her heart, and said to herself to the unborn child: "Child, tomorrow we are going to save your eldest brother, you have to be well-behaved, my mother will do everything possible to let our mother and son return safely." ”
The stingy ghost walked in from the outside with a curtain and asked, "I heard that Mo Lingyu has sent a letter?" ”
Yun Yuhong nodded and handed the letter in her hand to the stingy ghost.
After reading it, the stingy ghost threw the letter away angrily and said: "If it's really them, despicable, it's really despicable, they can't beat us on the battlefield, so they catch a child and threaten each other, and dare to call themselves what kind of god of war, phew." After scolding, he glanced at Yun Yuhong's stomach worriedly, and said stingily: "Master, let me go tomorrow, don't worry, I gave up this life, and I will definitely bring Lele back." ”
Yun Yuhong said lightly: "People named me to go alone, what is it if you go, I'm afraid you won't be able to see me, and you won't even be able to see Lele." Don't worry, I'll make the arrangements. ”
The stingy ghost wanted to say something more, but when he saw the door curtain lifted, the second princess walked in with a bowl of medicine.
Picking up the letter on the ground and looking at it, the second princess took the medicine bowl to Yun Yuhong and said, "I knew it would be like this." This is a fetal pill, I asked Baizhu to get it deliberately, Baizhu said, this medicine is taken twice, as long as you don't do too hard movements, or hurt the abdomen, you can keep the child unaffected within twelve hours, but the child will be born weaker, but careful care for two years will be fine. ”
Yun Yuhong took the bowl and said with a smile: "It's still the royal sister who thinks thoughtfully." After speaking, he drank the medicine in one gulp.
The stingy ghost gritted his teeth, but couldn't say anything. It's useless for anyone to say what the master decides, Bai Ziyu may be able to persuade one or two, but Bai Ziyu doesn't know that the master is pregnant, and it's too late to be in the capital, so it seems that he can only make more preparations.
On the second day, Yun Yuhong came to the foot of Xiaogu Mountain with more than a dozen soldiers. It is a very small mountain, with only one peak, and the mountain is lush with trees, and it is not an inaccessible place, and a three-zhang wide mountain road winds to the top of the mountain.
Yun Yuhong listened to it but there was no other movement, it seemed that there was no ambush under the mountain, which was a bit surprising, but Yun Yuhong didn't have time to think about anything else, and led people up the mountain.
The trees in the mountains were thick, and the sunlight was gradually blocked, and the air began to become damp, and at some point it became eerie. And the higher it goes, the narrower the road becomes, and then there are a lot of forks in the road, Yun Yuhong took more than a dozen, of course, she couldn't scatter anymore, so she had to choose one of the roads, but for some reason, she walked and walked, but found that this road was not up, but down the mountain.
Yun Yuhong found that something was wrong, but after returning the same way, she felt that she couldn't find the way she came. The group walked for more than an hour, and it was already the appointed noon, but they still failed to reach the top of the mountain, but did not know where to go around the mountain.
Yun Yuhong was not in a hurry, but found a stone to sit down and rest, and then recalled all the way how many forks in the road she had passed and what signs they had.
It can be seen from the fact that this mountain is called Xiaogu Mountain, it is not a very big mountain, usually the nearby villagers come up to collect medicine and hunt, I have not heard how difficult it is to walk or easy to get lost, and it stands to reason that there should not be so many forks in the road. But there are a bit of bizarre numbers, but it's like a labyrinth, no, it's not a labyrinth, it's a formation, it's a big array laid out by using natural trees. And when it comes to the formation, Mo Lingyu is not very clever, I am afraid that there is still the handwriting of General Ji Ran Ji.
Yun Yuhong stood up and said loudly: "General Mo, General Ji, I haven't seen you for a long time, is this your hospitality?" ”
The others were shocked, could it be that there were other people around, and they hurriedly stepped forward to surround Yun Yuhong in the middle and looked around.
After a while, a sigh came out, and General Mo's voice also came. "The ghost king is the ghost king, you can know that this is a formation so quickly, and you can think that it is the handwriting of General Ji, this wisdom is really admirable."
Yun Yuhong said with a smile: "Since General Mo is nearby, why don't you come out and see it." ”
Mo Lingyu said with a smile: "The ghost king said that I am laughing, I am not as good as you in strength now, my martial arts are not as good as yours, and my intelligence is even less than yours, how dare I easily appear in front of the ghost king, isn't that asking for hardship?" ”
Yun Yuhong raised her eyebrows and said: "Why is General Mo so humble, you may not be as good as me, but my son is in your hands, you can restrain me with this point, right?" ”
There was silence in the distance for a while, and Mo Lingyu's voice came, "Ghost King, are you chatting with me to find out my location, you don't have to work in vain, I have changed three places to talk to you." And my position isn't necessarily the exit. I've put your son on the top of the mountain, and if you have the ability, go to the top of the mountain and find him, but you have to hurry, for after sunset the torches will run out and the wolves will have a feast. ”
Yun Yuhong smiled: "Sunset? It's only noon now, is General Mo so sure that I won't be able to get out of this formation all afternoon? ”
It's just that no one answered Yun Yuhong's question this time, Yun Yuhong sighed, this Mo Lingyu is also cunning enough, it seems that she knows her plan, and the person has left.
After thinking about it carefully, Mo Lingyu came from the bottom of the road when he first spoke, then turned to the top of the road, and finally the position below the mountain, but this time it was a long time apart. That is to say, the place of the first time and the second time is very close, it is the road from the bottom up, and then Mo Lingyu discovered his plan, so he deliberately turned another direction.
Yun Yuhong made up her mind and took the lead in the direction of the mountain. Sure enough, after walking for a while, another fork in the road appeared, Yun Yuhong chose the upward one, and then walked for a while, and another fork in the road appeared, Yun Yuhong thought about it, but took the downward road. Obviously, Yun Yuhong found the solution to this formation, that is, once choose down, once choose upward, cross and go, the downward road will not go too far before there will be a fork in the road, and then the upward road will be longer, so that it will continue to approach the top of the mountain.
In the depths of the dense forest, Ji Ran and Mo Lingyu stood side by side, seeing that the ghost king and his party were almost at the top of the mountain, Ji Ran sighed and said: "The ghost king is really powerful, he broke the formation so quickly, and it took a day to break this formation back then." ”
Mo Lingyu said coldly: "So we can't let her go back alive, as long as she is there, Zeyu and Chiyan will die." ”
Glancing at General Ji, Mo Lingyu softened his tone and said: "Don't worry, General Ji, as long as you help me trap the Ghost King, I will personally go to Chiyan to prove the innocence of your Ji family to the monarch of Chiyan, so that you can reunite with your family as soon as possible." ”
Ji Ran smiled bitterly, the Ji family has always been loyal to Chiyan, but the monarch listened to the villain's slander and arrested the Ji family and put them in prison, but the crime was to collaborate with the enemy and commit treason. He didn't even have a chance to defend himself, and was taken away in chains in front of the two armies. If it weren't for Mo Lingyu's letter saying that he had captured the son of the ghost king and asked him to help set up the formation, his family might have been beheaded. Now Ji Ran is in despair, there is no need to talk to him about loyalty and patriotism, his only hope now is a family reunion.
Mo Lingyu grasped the weakness of the ghost king, and also grasped the weakness of Ji Ran. Ji Ran had no choice but to say: "Let's go to the front, I'll change the formation and let them turn back." ”
Mo Lingyu shook his head and said: "No, since they have come up, why should I let them go down again, General Ji, this formation can't just make people get lost, there should be some killing, right?" ”
Ji Ran was stunned for a moment and nodded: "There is a way, but I am afraid it will not have much effect on the ghost king." ”
"I'll try it if it doesn't work, General Ji can just use it."
Ji Ran nodded again, but said in his heart: Ghost King, I thank you for letting Fei Ling go, and I can only help you get here, what happens next, you can know for yourself.
Yun Yuhong walked with the team for a short time, and felt that the wind was getting stronger and stronger, that is, it was not far from the top of the mountain. I was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, but I suddenly heard a sudden scream from the last soldier in the team, and someone slashed his neck and fell to the ground.
The others immediately became vigilant, and Yun Yuhong glanced at the stingy ghost dressed as a soldier, and the stingy ghost hesitated but turned around and came to the end of the line.
Yun Yuhong continued to walk forward, and after a while, she heard the sound of the knife behind her, and hurriedly dodged to avoid it, but only saw a corner of her clothes flashing, and the sneak attacker had already gone to the trace, and at the same time, a soldier died and a soldier was cut.
Yun Yuhong ordered everyone to walk back to back, covering each other, this time it was better, the sneak attackers were not easy to start, so they changed to bow and arrow shooting, a rain of arrows fell from the sky, Yun Yuhong jumped up and waved his sword, blocking most of them, but still missed a few arrows and injured two soldiers.
Then, the second rain of arrows came again, this time Yun Yuhong didn't want them to succeed, and while swinging his sword, he reversed some arrows and shot them the way they came, and sure enough, there was a scream not far away. After Yun Yuhong heard the voice clearly, she didn't care if there was a way or not, but jumped to the top of the tree, and the trees passed through and rushed towards the group of archers and began to kill. Pity these archers, who had just been made a mess by the arrows that returned, and before they could figure out what was going on, they were killed by a sword from the ghost king who fell from the sky.
