Chapter 225: The Spiral Turtle

The beast rider is basically a mount, and the forehead and chest are covered with iron armor, and the soft part of the abdomen is covered with leather armor, which is in line with the knight who holds the saddle of the high bridge with one hand, and is fast and fast.

After the beast rider forward, there was the main formation that rumbled, surrounded by nearly a hundred horsemen guarding the demon beast the size of a hill in the center.

Behind them were a two-wheeled cart with huge armor and the baggage needed for the horsemen.

And that hill-like monster is similar to a turtle, with a head like a bird and a scissor-shaped beak, a thick head and neck covered with scales, a slender tail like a snake, and an unusually thick four-legged shape like elephant legs.

Although a monster beast of this size seems to be bulky, it often needs the beast master on the turtle's back to blow a bone whistle to make it slow down in hindsight. The way the demon beast vented its dissatisfaction with the slow march was to dance the snake's tail like a whip, and in three or two strokes, it pulled out a large crack in the ground behind it, and the large and small stones on several nearby mountains also rolled down a lot of mountains!

The tortoise-shaped demon beast in the center of the back armor has been rebuilt into a platform, on which there is a tent of the Chinese military camp, the golden drums and flags are complete, lined up; dozens of guards stand around the platform; there is a canopy in the center, and a nine-star weapon array is laid around the canopy: the nine-piece pattern is suspended like the moon holding the moon.

There were several people sitting under the canopy, the one in the center was wearing a military uniform, judging from the color of the cuffs, it should be a second-grade martial venerable; on the left hand side of the martial venerable were two messengers of the Great Rift Valley wearing blue-faced fanged masks, and on the right hand side was a second-grade Wenzun who was closing his eyes and recuperating, and another second-grade martial venerable, all of whom were also dressed according to the standards of the Star Monarch's grade, which was clear at a glance.

"In this way, we will retire first, and all the subordinates will cooperate with the town for this autumn hunt. The two messengers stood up and bowed their heads to the other three, one of whom spoke.

"There are two mountain masters! Walk slowly! Don't send it!" the one in the center responded with his head bowed, and his voice naturally revealed the bearing of a person who had been in the top position for a long time.

Said to be walking slowly, in fact, these two messengers are stepping on the wind, directly from the back of the turtle "soaring clouds and fog" generally left, not far away from the sound of orders, most of the people and horses started the sound, in the haze there are an unknown number of people gradually away from the main formation.

"Lord Zongzhen, may I ask me, is there a difference between this envoy and the mountain master?"

"Don't you dare to ask for advice, you and I are just chatting. The head of the country from the beginning of the Later Jin Dynasty to the West Tower to take up the new position, take over the official, the official should solve your doubts and doubts, and when the time comes, the handover will be much smoother. Rong Yi smiled heartily, and said: "The lords of the forces on the side of the Great Rift Valley are collectively known as the lords of the mountain gates, and are later referred to as the mountain lords. The messenger represents the lord of the mountain, but is not the same as the lord of the mountain. The blue-faced fanged mask worn by the envoy was fixed, corresponding one-to-one, representing the various forces in the Great Rift Valley that participated in the alliance at that time. Wearing this mask symbolizes the will of the force, hehe, this is a bit like the diplomatic symbol of the envoys of the Seven Kingdoms. ”

"So it seems that the mountain lord is here, which means that he attaches great importance to the messenger's order a few days ago?" said the chief steward suddenly.

"Yes, there are also two messengers from the two mountain gates near the hunting ground who are willing to be the wings of this formation and cooperate with each other. In this way, you can carry out a large-scale search and capture of the chess grid area, and at the same time, you can also clear out the demon beasts, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone. Lord Zongzhen said: "With the help of these messengers and mountain masters, we dare to launch an unprecedented Autumn Hunt of Nine Palaces Grid Chess Grid this time, calling on more mountain gates to join, and welcome more hunting groups to participate in the grand event!"

The chief steward immediately sang the praises of virtue, expressing the good wish of the Later Jin Kingdom to form a brotherly state with the Southern Chu State forever, and the determination to jointly protect the stability of the West Bridge, and then at the end of the sentence, without the slightest fireworks, he mentioned a sentence about the West Wind Country's continuous encroachment and occupation of the territory of the Later Jin Kingdom in recent years. If Lord Zongzhen takes over the conversation, it is very likely that this successor of the Later Jin State will propose closer military cooperation between the two countries, so as to test the attitude of the Southern Chu State.

"It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish...... The fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, how can it end well......" The second-grade Wenzun over there let out a dream, sounding quite a bit insinuating and scolding Huai, after all, the two Xingzun who were sitting next to him were two discerning Xingzun, and there was no need to worry that others would not be able to hear any word he said.

Lord Zongzhen pretended not to notice and didn't take over the conversation, and the second grade Wenzun was sneering on the side, so the Lord in charge had no choice but to cough lightly, divert the topic, and ask: "This demon beast under our seat is the Spiral Turtle? It is said that this is the bloodline descendant of the divine beast Xuanwu?"

"The priest of Nanchu is a neighbor to me on the top of the West Tower, and this is not the first time I have heard him say 'dream words', Lord Steward, don't take it to heart!" Lord Zongzhen explained in a vague way, and said: "The racial talent of the Spiral Turtle is thunder and lightning, and it should not be a descendant of the Xuanwu bloodline. However, the tortoise fades once every time, and the annual rings on the nail have exceeded 17 turns. ”

"Sixty years of a jiazi, the annual ring of the nail piece has increased by one circle...... Isn't that already a thousand years old?!" The chief manager exclaimed: "I have been guarding the border towns of the Later Jin Kingdom before, and I never expected that there would be so many unbelievable things in the Great Rift Valley. It's ridiculous that I always thought that 'the thousand-year-old king and eighty-thousand-year-old turtle' was a joke, but I didn't expect that there really existed like this!"

"Are you making a mockery of my High Priest of the Star Temple as the 'Eighth King'?!" The second-grade Xingzun no longer pretended to be asleep, opened his eyes, glanced at the chief steward, and said coldly.

In fact, no one knows exactly how old His Excellency the High Priest of the Star Temple is, and I am afraid that it is not the same as the Decree of the City of Qifang: In general, His Excellency the High Priest himself may not remember his "Gui Geng" this year. However, His Excellency the High Priest should be a person of the same age as Qin Xiaotian, and now it is said that he is "imaginary" at eight hundred years old, I am afraid that it is almost the same.

The manager was quick for a while, and he made an unintentional mistake, but he happened to talk about the "Eighth Millennium King", which naturally made the priest of the Southern Chu Star Hall next to him unhappy.

The steward didn't dare to say anything. This frontier official who had just stepped down from the Later Jin Kingdom, who was about to take over as the second-grade star venerable of the West Tower General Town, was about to bow to the priest of the Southern Chu Star Hall at this time.

A weak country has no diplomacy, this is an eternal and unchanging wise saying!
