Chapter Sixty-Nine: Alone in Longtan (1) Vulture Bone!
A moment together, but again apart!
After whispering to Xia Ruobing for some precautions, Zhou Qifei spread his wings, and disappeared in the sky over Yizhou in an instant, just as he did when he came. Overnight flight to Cochin (present-day northern Vietnam, around Baoshan, Yunnan).
It was the next morning, after he left. 10 miles outside Yizhou City, several war elephants lined up in a line, led by the two particularly tall war elephants, slowly walking towards the direction of Yizhou City. On one of them stood a tall, shirtless man with muscles like copper cast of iron.
The man's fluffy curls were draped over his shoulders. If Zhou Qi was there, he could recognize it at a glance, such a strong-looking, lion-like man was the Southern Barbarian King Meng who went to 100,000 elite soldiers in a big puddle.
"Ahead is Yizhou City, what are the king's plans?"
On top of the other war elephant beside him, Zhu Rong, who had silver hair and healthy wheat-colored skin, suddenly asked softly. Although after being frightened by Zhou Qi, he didn't know much about the process after that. However, with her intelligence, it is not difficult to guess that it is probably her own rude man who will not give up at a critical time and save her.
"Hmph, what else can I do, now I can only go to my brother Meng Wei to settle down first. After resting for a day or two, return to the cross-toe to tidy up the troops. This king is bound to die with that birdman Zhou Qi! ”
"Did the king ever think that now that you have lost all your soldiers and horses, you will go back like this? Among the thirty-six cave masters, there are those who have ambitions, and I am afraid that they will take advantage of the opportunity. ”
"Hey! It's all caused by the treacherous Han people. As Madame said, this is what worries me. King Mulu and Vulture Bone, one fights the beast army in his hand, and the other person controls the vine armor army, my army was fine when it was there, but now the army is all lost, I am afraid that after going back, these two people will take the opportunity to make trouble. ”
Zhu Rong heard her husband say this and stopped talking. There was a fierce light in the beautiful eyes. has just suffered an unprecedented defeat, which is not a great shame for her. If someone dares to take the opportunity to have bad intentions. If she can't say that, the descendant of the god of fire, she will have to take some measures secretly. Erase this potential crisis!
The husband and wife walked all the way, and saw that the tall walls of Yizhou City had appeared in the field of vision.
At this moment, Zhu Rong suddenly stood up from the elephant's back. Build a pergola with your hands. Gaze into the distance!
"Something is wrong, my lord! In the past, we came, and there was an Eagle Eye report to the second uncle all the way. Presumably, he had already led his army to meet him at this moment. But no one has come until this moment, could it be that something has happened in this Yizhou City? ”
"Huh?" When Meng Shu heard this, his face changed suddenly. He felt that something was wrong before, and he suddenly realized what was wrong when he was reminded by his wife. Is something really going wrong?
When the two approached within 5 miles of the city, there was no need to guess. From the back of the elephant, you can see from a distance, a big flag fluttering at the head of Yizhou City, and there is a big Zhou character written in the flag!
Meng Shu hurriedly stopped the war elephant with a long pole. looked at Zhu Rong with a look of surprise, but he didn't know that he was just in time to meet Mrs. Zhu Rong's surprised gaze!
Judging from the speed of the army's actions, I am afraid that before he was ambushed, Zhou Qi sent a military horse to go around the back and attack Yizhou City! But how is this possible! The walls of Yizhou are high and wide, and even if there are enemies several times larger than the defenders and a large number of siege equipment, it is difficult to capture them in a hurry.
How did they get by? Why did the ears and eyes laid along the road not notice?
At the head of Yizhou City, Xia Ruobing held the military binoculars in both hands, and a chuckle hung on the corner of his mouth. really let that little sample be said, after Meng Shu found out that Yizhou was lost, he must have looked confused.
The one next to him should be Zhu Rong, Xia Ruobing pursed her lips, this woman is dressed coquettishly. I just don't know what happened to those two hits under my hand. Thinking in his heart, he couldn't help but show a look of eagerness in his eyes. If it hadn't been for Zhou Qi's instructions in advance, she would have really wanted to go out of the city and meet Zhurong for a while. Single-handedly taking on historical celebrities can get the Awakening Ring.
At this moment, through the telescope, Xia Ruobing saw from a distance that several war elephants took a big stride and changed the direction of progress. Head to the path to the west. From the reconnaissance a few days ago, she knew that along this path, she could bypass Yizhou City and lead to Jiaozhi in the south.
"Hmph, if only it were that simple!" Xia Ruobing snorted lightly in her nose. Everything is as expected by my own male ticket, I am afraid that Yizhou City will have a big bustle at night.
At the same time, at the speed of the archangel's wings, Zhou Qi flew through most of the day. Just after noon, they had already arrived in the territory of Cochin. When you look down from the air, you can see a vast tropical rainforest. Towering trees hugging several people can be seen everywhere.
Zhou Qi flew a hundred miles, and the forest was full of all kinds of rare birds and beasts that could not be named, but it was sparsely populated. According to the hints given by the quest, Meng Huo's lair is located in the Silver Pit. It is the place where the royal family has lived for generations. Around the Silver Pit, there are the remaining thirty-six holes. And the goal of his trip was in it.
According to the psychic sense, Zhou Qi captured a brute soldier in a sentry post located at the top of a tree shortly after. Under the influence of psychic communication, the direction to the silver pit was discovered.
According to the news from Xia Ruobing not long ago, Meng Shu and Zhu Rong had already appeared outside Yizhou City. At the moment, I am far ahead of them in time. Thinking of this, Zhou Qi smiled slightly, maybe when the male and female came back, they would be surprised again!
At night, Zhou Qi put a concealment charm on himself, like a predator, his transparent body was like a tanuki, and he climbed and walked in the trees with unusual dexterity. After a while, we arrived at a valley about 200 miles west of Eunkengdong.
And this is where Meng Huo trained the vine armor soldiers.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the rattan armor soldiers can be regarded as very bullish. It belongs to a special class of troops engaged in land, all-round, all-terrain operations. It is not easy to train a rattan soldier. The first and foremost is of course the rattan armor.
Pick the old vines that are more than 100 years old in the mountains, dry them in the sun, and soak them in oil. Then it was taken out and dried. And so on several times. Until the tough rattan is completely soaked in oil. It has become as tough as beef tendon, but the texture is as hard as pig iron. Ordinary blades are difficult to pierce, and they are a natural nemesis of arrows.
Not only that, but the weight is also exceptionally light. During the march, if they encountered a large river crossing, the barbarians could even take it off, put it into the water, and float over it on a rattan armor. It can be said that in addition to being afraid of fire attacks, the rattan armor soldiers can be regarded as very distinctive light infantry at that time. Zhuge Liang once suffered a big loss.
The target of Zhou Qi's trip is the leader of the vine armor soldiers, the vulture bone!
The land of the Southern Barbarians is divided into four counties in one country. The vultures are the lord of the kingdom of Nanban Ugo, and legend has it that he was a giant man who was twelve feet tall. When he was watching the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he complained about it, four meters tall? I really don't know how he was born.
Zhou Qifang entered the valley and saw from a distance that there were neat rows of camp tents along the river bank in front of him. Only in the center of the camp was a huge bonfire raised. Everything else was dark.
Behind the barracks, with his ability to see at night, he could clearly see a mountain peak dozens of feet high, with a huge cave in the middle, faintly visible fire. At the same time, the information transmitted by the psychic sense also revealed that a large mass of scarlet energy was located in the cave. In terms of the intensity of the energy, it was only slightly weaker than the fluctuations he felt from Meng Shu.
With the Concealment Charm that is enhanced by the priority bonus, Zhou Qi easily navigated through the many levels on the road. No one noticed all the way to the entrance of the cave. As soon as Fang arrived at the entrance of the cave, he heard a thunderous snoring sound coming into his ears.
When Zhou Qi followed the path artificially dug out of the hole, he walked into it and looked up. I couldn't help but gasp.
In the center of the hall hundreds of zhang square in the cave, a stone bed the size of half a basketball court is reflected by the butter torches on the surrounding walls. Lying on his side is a giant man who looks like a legendary wild giant! The thunderous snoring sound came from his mouth with his breath.
Just look at the body, this guy's strength is not small!
Zhou Qi froze in place for a moment, and the ghostly light in his eyes fell on the giant man.
"Vulture bones! Race: Human. Strength 167, Agility 91, Constitution 140, Adaptability 101, Spirit 82, Intelligence 75. ”
Good guy, it's really worthy of this physique, the strength is only slightly lower than Meng Huo, and it is only seen after entering the mission among ordinary generals! Sure enough, it was a fierce man who defeated Wei Yan 15 times in a row in the interpretation. But the space is fair. This guy has average attributes except for his strength and body. It can't be compared to the all-time players who have an average value of more than 100. But I don't want to go far.
Case! Why not take it?
But to subdue this person, I'm afraid you'll have to make some drastic information!
Zhou Qi's eyes were cold. As soon as he raised his hand, the six fire talismans quietly turned into ashes, and the spiritual power released turned into six streamers and flew into the four walls of the cave. After getting the formation, he learned the three magic arrays, and the powerful "Earth Flame Array" was arranged by him in a moment!
Wait until everything is ready! Zhou Qi silently recited the mantra in his mouth. Flames emerge from the ground out of thin air! In the blink of an eye, the entire cave was turned into a sea of fire!
The sleeping vulture bone only felt that the heat around his body was unbearable. Suddenly woke up from his sleep. Wait for him to open his eyes! I saw that the surroundings were red, and my eyes were full of raging flames of melting gold and iron!
"Not good! There was a fire! As soon as he thought of this, the vulture saw that he was in danger, and there was no equipment beside him to put out the fire. In a hurry, he let out a loud cry and slammed his hands into the ground. I actually moved the stone bed under me!
The vultures pushed the stone bed in front of him, and their footsteps rumbled towards the entrance of the cave. The fire came from a strange place, but the entrance of the cave was not far from here, and it only took a few steps to rush out with his pace. It's not too late to find out why!
However, at this moment, suddenly a ray of light shone brightly! The vulture saw a flash in front of him, and the scene around him changed dramatically, and he found himself in a furnace made of steel. Boiling molten iron all around!
At this time, he didn't react yet, he was asleep, this was someone else's plot!
"Roar! Who is the demon, who dares to plot against me! Get out of here with me! ”
At the moment when the roar of the vulture bone just fell, a clear voice was suddenly heard in his ears.
"If you are willing to surrender, I will spare you from death, live or perish! Vulture bones! It's all up to you! ”
