Chapter Seventy-Five: The Battle of the Blood Oath (1)
With the heavy footsteps of the war elephants, the puddles on the ground rippled in circles.
In front of the silver pit, the inhabitants of the labor and the barbarians on duty turned their eyes to the dusty place in the distance. Through the dappled shadows of the trees on both sides of the road. In the distance, you can see a particularly tall and strong, mammoth-like war elephant, with its proboscis raised high on a pair of spear-like tusks, and it is striding towards it!
Faintly visible, there was a slender figure with fluttering silver hair on the back of the elephant. As the distance closed, they could clearly see that near the position of the huge elephant's head, sat cross-legged a beautiful woman with wheat-colored skin all over her body.
"It's Mrs. Zhurong! Mrs. Zhurong is back! The barbarians on duty shouted loudly and whined and blew horns carved from buffalo horns. The entire inhabitants of the Silver Pit Cave laid down their work and poured out of their shacks and tents, and knelt down on both sides of the road to welcome their mistress!
At the same time, in the jungle dozens of miles away, countless armed brute soldiers dressed in rattan armor and fierce beasts with hideous faces quietly formed a large net, and were rapidly approaching in the direction of the silver pit.
As soon as an order is given, this huge net will be tightened and this piece will be impassable!
Zhu Rong rode on top of the war elephant and swept his gaze around. The look on her pretty face was indifferent. Seeing that there was almost no change from the home when the troops were sent out, and everything was as usual, she felt a little comforted in her heart, but she was secretly vigilant. Judging from the means shown by Zhou Qi, the calmer it is here, the more dangerous the crisis lurking behind it becomes!
When she came all the way to the mouth of the silver pit, when she saw the scene in front of her, her heart was completely cold. I saw that with the vulture bone and the king of Mulu as the leader, the king of Duosi and the three knots of the golden ring were separated on both sides, and the cave masters of the thirty-six caves of the Southern Wilderness actually gathered here! It looks like you're waiting to meet you early!
Something is wrong! The situation is a hundred times worse than she imagined!
In the past, unless the army triumphed and sent someone to inform in advance, these cave leaders would come to the cave entrance and wait. At the moment, I came back alone. Where did they get the news from? If it seems that they have already been wiped out by Zhou Qiyi!
But how is this possible! How long has it been since the people of Yizhou City appeared in front of the saints?
Thinking of this, Zhu Rong slapped the top of the war elephant's head with a long pole and ordered it to stop. A pretty face was sinister, and his gaze swept over the faces of the vulture bone and others one by one.
"Since the man in my family became a barbarian king, although he has a reckless personality and an occasional petty temperament, he also treats people well! Dong Dana, Ah Hui Muan! Vulture bones! The old lady asks you, why do you rebel against my man, rebel against the Southern Wilderness, and be at the mercy of Zhou Qi? ”
When the cave masters heard this, they looked at each other and couldn't make a sound. Do they answer or don't answer or answer? If you make a mistake, God knows if you will be punished by that soul contract!
Zhu Rong saw that no one answered his words left and right, and he was angry in his heart! There are five ordinary people and six people, as if this Southern Wilderness is the boss, and they are the second. Now no one dares to squeak in front of him!
Although she was angry in her heart, she became more and more jealous of Zhou Qi. This person doesn't know what kind of demon method he used, but he actually made these unruly guys so obedient!
"Hehe, Mrs. Zhurong, I haven't seen you for many days, it's always good?"
Just when Zhu Rong wanted to speak again, a ghostly light flashed not far away, and a person fell in mid-air, it was Zhou Qi. When the vulture and the others saw him appear, they sighed secretly in their hearts. If Zhou Qi didn't come out again, they would have to hold back their internal injuries.
Zhu Rong saw Zhou Qi appear, raised his eyebrows, and looked straight at him with a pair of apricot eyes!
"Marquis of Jingnan, General Pingnan, Wuling County Guard! Han Jialang is young, this official is not small! ”
"Mrs. Zhu Rong won the award. Unexpectedly, Wuling said goodbye, but in just a few days, Mrs. did not find out Zhou's details badly. ”
"Humph! The good things you have done, I can't help but ask the old lady I don't inquire carefully! Let me ask you, my husband and wife led the army to Wuling, and the casualties of these two soldiers have their own destiny! You are skilled, even if you are defeated and die, I have no regrets. But why do you want to set the three strategies of Pingnan and destroy the foundation of my southern wilderness! You must know that if your three strategies are implemented, my husband's foundation will not be guaranteed! Why do you have such sinister intentions and carry out such a poisonous scheme? ”
"I wonder if Mrs. Zhurong is good at living in this Southern Wilderness?" Zhou Qi waited for Zhu Rong's voice to fall, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly. I was not in a hurry to answer, and suddenly asked without thinking.
"Humph! This is Zhurong's hometown, and naturally he is living well! ”
"Oh? Madame is doing well, but has she ever asked the residents under her rule how they are doing? Zhou Qi's face suddenly straightened, and he suddenly raised his voice and asked loudly!
"This ......" Zhu Rong was originally a barbarian girl, although she was scheming, her temperament was upright. How could she not know what the population was doing under her rule. If you live a good life, you don't have to send troops to harass the Han realm every year. Looting property.
"I know that your husband and wife are still peaceful in politics on weekdays, and they have not been thirsty and fishing. Political moves! But for many years, why have the residents under his rule worked hard every day, but they have been struggling with food and clothing, and there has been no change in the slightest? You can ask yourself, is it their problem, or are you wrong? ”
"Zhou asked the witch god to come to the world to solve the famine in the south! Whether these three strategies will destroy your foundation or help the Southern Wilderness rise and fall, you can know if you think about it carefully! Hugh only valued the small profits in front of him, and gave up the great cause of the rise of the Southern Wilderness! ”
"You must know that water can carry boats, and it can also overturn boats, the people are important, and the monarch is light! The inhabitants have been hungry and worried for a long time, and in the long run, how long can your husband Meng Shu, the king of the Southern Barbarians, do? ”
After listening to Zhou Qi's words, Zhu Rong's pretty face turned red. There is a hint of shame in the beautiful eyes! Zhou Qi, this is simply a slap in the face of Hongguoguo! didn't say anything about occupying other people's lair, but also pointed at his nose and scolded! The meaning is obvious, you husband and wife are a pair of rulers who only care about their own happiness and do not know whether the people are alive or dead.
"Hmph, what a sharp-toothed Han Jialang! The Southern Wilderness has been like this for thousands of years! Even though the man in my family is not wise, but according to the rule of law of the ancestors, what is wrong! Hugh is going to be so tongue-in-cheek here! There is a kind of old lady who swears to fight in front of the sacred mountain! If you win, this southern wilderness will naturally belong to you, don't say three strategies, thirty strategies are also up to you. If I lose my life, the old lady will have to lead the troops to take back Yizhou and take the Wuling! ”
Battle of Mount Kinabalu? Sure enough, it came!
"Haha, Mrs. Zhurong, you are so willful, does your husband know? Why didn't he make an appointment with me on the Mountain of the God of War? ”
"Less nonsense! The old lady is a descendant of the dignified God of Fire, in front of the leaders of the Southern Wilderness and the cave master, I will ask you to fight, do you dare or not? ”
"So Zhou should be accompanied!"
"Good! He's a cheerful person! It's better to choose a day than to hit the day! Zhou Qi, if you have the courage, come with me! ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhu Rong's waist swayed lightly, and he jumped down from the back of the war elephant, like the wind blowing lotus leaves, and his posture was indescribably beautiful. Landing is barefoot on the ground lightly, and the body is swept towards the silver pit, the sacred mountain that has been passed down by the inhabitants of the Southern Wilderness for generations.
Zhou Qi had already retracted his flying wings at this time, and saw Zhu Rong moving forward, following closely with thousands of miles of clouds and smoke steps, far away.
Speaking of which, after subduing the vulture bone the night before, Zhou Qi communicated with his heart and borrowed the power of the soul contract, and had already understood the geography and customs of the entire Southern Wilderness from his mouth. And among them, it is mentioned that this is a sacred mountain.
It is said to be a sacred mountain, but in fact it is just a slightly higher mountain peak behind the silver pit. However, there is something peculiar about this mountain. Located at the foot of the mountain, there is a huge pit that covers an area of about dozens of acres, about dozens of zhang deep, according to legend, it is the place where the Nanban clan sacrificed to heaven a long time ago. And once the barbarian kings of the past dynasties died, according to the rules, all the caves could send people here to participate in the competition for the throne.
No matter how many people enter, only one person can come out of the pit. The person who survived is the new Lord of the Southern Wilderness!
Zhou Qi followed Zhu Rong to the front of the mountain, only to see Zhu Rong reach out and take off the huge boomerang on his back, and wipe the sharp blade with his left hand. After cutting a gap, the bloody palm gently slapped on a black boulder in front of the pit, leaving a bloody handprint on the smooth stone surface, and then looked back at himself defiantly, and jumped down the pit!
As the boomerang in her hand tapped on the steep pit wall, it landed firmly at the bottom of the pit in a blink of an eye!
Zhou Qi thought for a while, took out the evil suppression sword, and also cut his palm, and imprinted a blood mark on the stone with the blood on his hand!
And the moment the handprint fell, he seemed to hear a low sound in his ears. I felt inexplicably in my heart that I had made contact with this land. In the dark, there seems to be some kind of ancient contract that connects him with Zhu Rong!
Zhou Qi stretched his body and jumped into the giant pit, and at the moment when his feet hit the ground, he suddenly heard a prompt from the space in his ears!
"Warning, Contractor No. 5106 signed a blood oath contract with Zhu Rong and entered the blood oath sacrifice ground to fight. You can't leave the arena until the battle is over. Only after killing the other person, can you leave! ”
"Such an evil sect?" Zhou Qi thought secretly in his heart, frowning slightly. If you have to separate life and death, it is completely inconsistent with your original intention! This brute girl has such a fierce temperament!
But the matter has come to this, like an arrow has gone off the string, and he can't regret it!
"It's a pity!" Seeing Zhu Rong's oncoming dart, Zhou Qi sighed lightly, his face sank, and he raised his sword to meet it!
As soon as the battle between the two began, the rest of the thirty-six cave masters rushed over one after another! It's a matter of life and wealth, so they can't afford not to care. And at this moment, there was a terrifying roar from afar, which shocked people's hearts!
Everyone was shocked! Hurry back and take a look! I saw that in the woods behind me, the green giant trees fell one after another, as if a giant beast from the flood was rushing and running in it! A moment later, I saw a man rushing out of the woods!
The person who came was nearly three meters tall! Extremely majestic! He was covered with curly hair and a thick beard, and his topless body exposed his bronzed skin to the air.
It was Meng Huo, the king of the Southern Barbarians!
Meng Yu saw that the thirty-six cave masters gathered in the blood sacrifice field! He was so shocked that his beard was full of hair and his face was pale!
"Dong Dana! Why are you gathered here? Who is in the field fighting the battle of blood oaths! Meng Shu looked at Dong Dana, who was the most important to him on weekdays, and asked loudly in a dry voice. There was a slight tremor in his voice. I secretly prayed in my heart that I would never get the answer I guessed!
"Great, King! It's Mrs. Zhurong and Master Zhou Qi! ”
"What!" When Meng heard this, he felt that it was dark in front of him! Anger, remorse, distress, grief and indignation, all kinds of emotions linger in my heart!
I didn't expect to be one step late!
