Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Choice

When the generals heard this, Qi Qi's face changed greatly, everyone around Feng Yi was experienced in a hundred battles, but they had never encountered this situation, and they were talking about it one by one, and they didn't know what to do?

Ji Wuyi and the others sweated on their foreheads, and said, "Young master, what are you waiting for? If you don't go to Xilianghe, I'm afraid that these tens of thousands of troops will not die on the battlefield, but will die of thirst on this plain." As soon as he said this, all the generals showed unwilling expressions, and said: "Damn, instead of dying of thirst here, it is better to move forward at full speed." If we come across an ambush, we slaughter them and drink their blood. ”

When the people around heard the blood, they swallowed their throats in unison.

Feng Yi saw that before he encountered the enemy, the army panicked, he took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Everyone, listen to me. He was full of spiritual power and full of energy, and at this moment he spoke in his chest and abdomen, and his speech was buzzing in everyone's ears like a bell, and for a while those noisy generals suddenly quieted down, and they all looked at His Royal Highness the Young Lord with an expectant look.

Feng Yi said: "Don't panic, everyone, there is a rare phenomenon of heat here, but for the time being, I don't know whether it is a natural disaster or man-made." And it's strange that none of the scouts sent out before have returned. In case this is a trick laid by the enemy, if we go to Xilianghe according to their plan, won't we be in the middle of an ambush?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and they all secretly thought that according to the combat effectiveness of the army at this moment, I am afraid that only one or two thousand enemies can defeat themselves, and they are all faintly afraid in their hearts.

Suddenly, there was a Wu Dao: "Your Royal Highness, this worry cannot be said to be superfluous, but I have a doubt. ”

Ji Wu is the lord of Xinyi Country, the whole country is good at refining medicine, and the witch doctor who helped the Great Marquis before was also from their tribe. Ji Wu is usually silent, rarely communicates with others, and has a faint herbal smell on his body, which makes people stay away.

Feng Yi said: "Lord Xinyi, please speak?"

Ji Wu said: "Let the radius of hundreds of miles seem to have been burned by fire, and even the air has a very strong fire spirit remaining, this is probably not something that human strength can do." When everyone heard this, they also thought so, and the fear and worry in their hearts were slightly lessened.

Feng Yi secretly thought: "Where have you seen the means of one of the eight gods of Penglai, now that he is working for Yu Hanxun, if it is him, maybe it is really possible." But Feng Yi was reluctant to say this person, causing panic among everyone.

At this time, the Grand Marquis suddenly said: "What the Lord of Xinyi said is right, this is indeed not something that can be done by manpower. But natural disasters cannot happen quietly. In my opinion, perhaps it is because the cold country has raised many rare birds and beasts, and they have set out together to cause such a vision. Everyone was awe-struck, and suddenly remembered that there were many spies who had come to report over the years, and the Han Kingdom had used the beast control technique of the Spirit Language Country to control many strange beasts in the Great Wilderness for their use, and it was very likely that the Great Marquis would say this.

Ji Wu was silent when he heard this, and seemed to agree with what the eldest marquis said.

Feng Yi said: "In this case, we might as well go the opposite way and go to the quicksand river, so that even if the enemy finds our traces and pursues us, it will be difficult for them to cross the eight hundred miles of quicksand!"

When the army heard this, they cheered in unison, and said helplessly: "However, the birds of the quicksand river are sad, the enemy can't cross it, and we can't get through it." ”

Feng Yi smiled and said, "This Dantong country lord doesn't have to worry. He turned his head to Ji Shisheng and Ji Gengjin and said, "Do you still remember the Gu Repellent Vine Armor that we specially refined in order to deal with Xirong's Gu poison?"

The second marquis said: "Of course I remember." ”

Feng Yi said: "Send a herald to let people build a hundred big ships with the lightest wood, and then tie them with those remaining immortal vines, and find a wrestler to pull them on the shore." Coupled with the flying beasts in the army, looking for the narrowest channel of the quicksand river, this tens of thousands of troops should be able to cross in less than an hour. ”

Ji Gengjin was overjoyed when he heard this: "Young master's clever plan, the narrowest part of the quicksand river is only dozens of miles, and the reason why we couldn't cross it before was because the largest boats couldn't travel on the river." But with the traction of the fairy vine, you are not afraid of anything. ”

All the generals laughed in unison: "Then what are you waiting for? Send someone to inform Lu Zhongcheng quickly." Send a few more people to make sure nothing goes wrong. ”

Only the eldest marquis's face was indifferent, and he said: "Young master, although this plan is wonderful, there are still flaws. The reason why the big river is a moat during the battle is because it is the most dangerous when crossing the river, and once the enemy forms an arrow array, everyone can't run away. ”

Feng Yi smiled and said in a deep voice: "How can there be a perfect plan in the world? If you encounter enemies on your way to the Liusha River, you can only stop them with all your might, so that the army can cross the river safely." ”

Ji Shisheng looked at the young master's face, his heart was shocked, and he thought of those demons of the Han Kingdom who had been defeated in the middle of the army and almost died in vain, and suddenly a strong killing intent and resentment were born.

After that, everything was arranged, and the army, under the leadership of Feng Yi and the others, headed towards the direction of Heavenly Emperor Mountain at full speed.

The Tianshan Mountain Range is rumored to be connected to the Xianshan Kunlun, so many emperors in the past set up their tombs on the Tianshan Mountain in order to be closer to the immortals after death. Gradually, each mountain peak here may have the bones of ancient emperors, and the people nearby named each mountain, so that there are Huangren Mountain, Xihuang Mountain, Lutai Mountain, Shaohuang Mountain, these famous mountain names. It's just that the age is so old, and now people can't tell who is buried under which mountain?

However, this Tiandi Mountain is very exceptional, because this mountain is dedicated to the eternal Emperor Shennong. Legend has it that Shennong tasted herbs, refined many elixirs, and cured many terminal diseases for the people of the Great Wilderness. But it's a pity that later, he had one hundred and eighteen kinds of severe pains such as intestinal grass, and he couldn't resist it with his all-out cultivation. Shennong was afraid that after his death, the poison accumulated in his body for hundreds of years would flow out and harm people, so he found this Tiandi Mountain and buried his bones here.

Tiandi Mountain is surrounded by quicksand rivers, there are no living creatures in the first place, and on the other side is a vast snow-capped mountain, even if those poisons flow out, they will be frozen in place.

Now after hundreds of years, the poison in the body of Emperor Shennong has long disappeared, and many people in later generations often want to come to worship, but unfortunately they can't climb the snow mountain, or cross the quicksand river, and the people who die every year are not in the young master. Later, the people were so frightened that they stopped bothering the emperor's spirit. Only call this mountain Tiandi Mountain, recalling the great achievements of Emperor Shennong!

Feng Yi and the others led the army along the avenue and walked straight in the northwest direction, and after just one or twenty miles, they felt that the surroundings had completely changed. The vast green plain was now scorched black, and even the earth seemed to have been scorched by the fire, and the army walked on it as if they were standing by the fire, sweating profusely and their mouths were dry. But the water he brought with him at any time had already been drunk, and for a while, the elite of Great Xia became like refugees.

The spiritual power in Feng Yi's body automatically flowed, blocking out the hot air that was constantly coming from the ground. Although his body was fine, he was secretly horrified in his heart, and asked left and right, "How is the army?"

Ji Shisheng looked sad and said, "Young master, the soldiers are too dehydrated, I'm afraid they won't last long." ”

Ji Geng Jinqiang smiled: "Big brother, although the brothers are thirsty, their breath in their hearts is getting stronger and stronger. Haha, thanks to what the young master said before, there will be water to drink in front of you! The brothers have been walking for so long, and they all feel that they are about to arrive. ”

Feng Yi said helplessly: "But the body will not deceive itself, if you can't reach the quicksand river in another half an hour, everyone will be dying of thirst if you are not tired to death." ”

Ji Shisheng's expression changed slightly, and he hesitated: "Young master, you don't know, the water of the quicksand river can't be drunk!"

Feng Yiqi said: "Why? Can't you drink it and call it a river?"

Ji Shisheng said: "Although the quicksand river is a river, the water is mixed with extremely fine sand, which flows down from the wasteland upstream. If a person drinks it, he will not only quench his thirst, but he will also die of bloating. In the lower reaches of the river, it is common to see the carcasses of many people and animals, which are caused by drinking the river water. ”

Feng Yi was surprised when he heard this, and said with a smile: "There is such a thing. But don't worry, as long as you get to the quicksand river, I can naturally make the army drink clean water. ”

Ji Shisheng was about to say anything more, but was suddenly stopped by the second marquis and said: "Hey, eldest brother, don't you believe the young master's words? With that, the two of them reined in their horses and inspected the army that stretched for dozens of miles.

The generals on the side did not know why, and their hearts were anxious, and they came up to petition that they would lead the troops to the Chishui and Xiliang River in the distance to get water, but they were all blocked back by Fengyi, and they all slandered in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it, so they could only move forward helplessly.

Suddenly, I heard General Xia Geng in front of me shouting: "I see the snow mountain, young master, it's almost there." ”

Feng Yi looked up, but saw that at the end of a scorched yellow earth in front of him, a row of towering white peaks appeared, shining white and shining, reflecting a dazzling light in the sun, looking like a huge gem from a distance.

Bo Mi smiled and said: "Young master, there is the Tianshan Mountain Range in front, and the highest in the center is the Tiandi Mountain." It is rumored that there are immortals on this mountain, and there is an extremely rare Tianshan snow lotus in the great wilderness, which can live for a hundred years if you eat one plant. "Everyone is extremely thirsty now, and when they hear Bo Mi talk about snow-capped mountains and snow-capped mountains, they can't bear it. Hearing the Tianshan Snow Lotus again, his face was even more moved, all the lords of the country used to be relatives of the Great Xia royal family, and they were pampered, so they naturally had eaten this rare spiritual thing. Everyone swallowed their saliva in unison when they thought of the sweet and fragrant fragrance, and the head of the Red Silk Country, Ji Tianmu, rumbled in his stomach.

Everyone laughed in unison, and they were even more excited at the thought that crossing the quicksand river was the Western Regions.

After another moment, the snow-capped mountains got closer and closer, as if they could be touched by their tentacles. Gradually there was the sound of rushing water in front of me, mixed with strange sounds, like the roar of wild beasts, like the soft cry of birds, and more like thousands of musical instruments playing in it, which sounded wonderful!
