Volume 2 The Storm of the Xia Kingdom Chapter 8 The Inner Siege of the Barbarian State
The next day, before dawn, Ding Xiao was dressed in a black robe, and couldn't wait to stay at the door of Ding Daocheng's room, turning around.
Ding Xiao turned around, glanced at Ding Daocheng's door from time to time, and muttered to himself: "It's not a way, I've been waiting here for a while, and I haven't seen the instructor come out." ”
With a roll of his eyes, suddenly Ding Xiao made a "oh oh", and all the chickens around him crowed, so much trouble, and after a while, almost the entire peripheral people woke up in their sleep.
Ding Daocheng actually got up a long time ago, just pretending to be asleep, and kept observing Ding Xiao who was going around outside, and found that this kid was afraid of disturbing his sleep, so he didn't dare to knock on the door directly, and he actually came with such a trick, calling everyone up, couldn't help laughing, opened the door, and said: "Stinky boy, I'm impatient to wait." ”
Hearing Ding Daocheng's voice, Ding Xiao turned around and saw Ding Daocheng walking out, and had already guessed that Ding Daocheng had seen through his plan, so he had to scratch his head in embarrassment, smile on his face, and look at Ding Daocheng as if he was innocent.
Ding Daocheng looked at Ding Xiao's watch glass, couldn't help laughing, turned around and closed his door, walked in front of Ding Xiao, waved his big hand, and said, "Let's go." ”
"Yes. Ding Xiao stood behind Ding Daocheng and replied solemnly.
In the Barbarian King's Palace, there is an inconspicuous stone under the throne, only the size of a baby's fist, and no one usually pays attention to it at all.
Ding Daocheng led Ding Xiao to the throne, glanced at Ding Xiao, and said lightly: "Look at it." ”
With that, he crouched down and pressed one hand on the stone under the throne.
I saw that the stone wall behind the throne spread out to both sides, making a "boom" sound, revealing a path for two middle-aged barbarians to stand side by side.
"Come in. Ding Daocheng walked in and said in a deep voice to Ding Xiao, who was still standing outside.
"Yes. Ding Xiao frowned, spoke, and walked to Ding Daocheng's side.
Ding Daocheng looked at the stone bricks on the wall and said in a deep voice: "Remember, count the seventeenth brick from east to west, and count the ninth brick from bottom to top." ”
Ding Xiaozai looked at these bricks carefully, and said lightly: "This is the mechanism of the closed passage." ”
"Yes. Ding Daocheng responded lightly and reached out and pressed on the stone brick.
The stone wall began to close with a "boom", and when the stone wall was completely closed, there was a continuous "poof" sound, and the lampstands on both sides suddenly lit up with fire.
"Don't look at it, let's go. Ding Daocheng looked at Ding Xiao, who was shocked by this scene, smiled faintly, and said.
"Yes. Ding Xiao agreed, but her eyes seemed to be uncontrollable, and she looked blindly to both sides.
It's unobstructed, and it's nothing special when you go inside, until you get to the end, it's exactly the same as before.
Seeing the light ahead, Ding Xiao just wanted to take two steps forward, but was stopped by Ding Daocheng: "Stop, from now on, you can't follow me by mistake, otherwise we may all die here." ”
"Yes. Ding Xiao stuck out his tongue and honestly followed behind Ding Daocheng's ass.
The dazzling eyes illuminated people who couldn't open their eyes, Ding Xiao raised his hand to block the sunlight and walked out of the end of the passage.
"Wow" Ding Xiao was surprised, it was spring, only to see a prairie, clear sky, there is a forest in the grassland, there are all kinds of fruit trees, and then there is a building similar to a yurt, and there are many grazing cattle and sheep, this situation is beautiful, it is simply a paradise.
At the door, two strong men about two meters tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, with expressionless faces, dressed in a brand-new golden armor, holding a halberd in their hands, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "See the barbarian king." ”
"Excuse me, bring my shadow over. Ding Daocheng smiled faintly at the two and said.
"Yes. A big man agreed, and ran out quickly, and after a while, he brought a black horse, which was like black satin, shiny and shiny, only the four horses' hooves were white and snowy, the black horse's back was long, the waist was short and straight, and the joints and tendons of the limbs were developed strongly, and even Ding Xiao, who didn't understand horses, widened his eyes.
Ding Daocheng got up and stepped on the horse's back, gently stroked the horse's head, and saw the horse's "Yu Yu" scream happily and ran out quickly.
Ding Xiao was helpless, seeing that Ding Daocheng had already run away on horseback, he had to chat with the two barbarian soldiers guarding the passage.
Ding Xiao looked at the two soldiers and said with a smile: "Two big brothers, hello." ”
The two soldiers were expressionless and ignored Ding Xiao.
"Two big brothers, Gui Geng. Ding Xiao was not convinced, and then asked.
was still expressionless, and he didn't even look at Ding Xiao.
Ignoring Ding Xiao again and again, Ding Xiao was really a little angry this time, pointed to the two soldiers, and said helplessly: "Hey, I said, you can do it......"
Regardless of good words or provocations, the two soldiers always ignored Ding Xiao, and Ding Xiao sat on the ground with his ass, and no longer paid attention to the two barbarian soldiers.
"Huh~", Ding Daocheng came back on horseback, and when he saw Ding Xiao sitting on the ground sulking, he was slightly stunned, and he naturally understood after looking at the two soldiers guarding the door.
Ding Daocheng stretched out his hand towards Ding Xiao, Ding Xiao stretched out his hand to take it, Ding Daocheng pulled hard, Ding Xiao jumped on the back of the horse, and sat right behind Ding Daocheng.
At a lakeside, Jueying was drinking water, Ding Daocheng and Ding Xiao sat on the ground, Ding Daocheng pointed to Jueying, and said lightly: "This horse's name is Jueying, it is my good brother, and he has followed me for fifteen years." ”
Ding Xiao smiled faintly and said, "It looks bigger than me." ”
Ding Daocheng laughed, walked in front of the shadow, jumped, rode up, stretched out his hand towards Ding Xiao, and said lightly: "Get on the horse, I'll take you to see the real barbarian army." ”
"Good. Ding Xiao took Ding Daocheng's hand, turned around and jumped, and sat behind Ding Daocheng.
After about two sticks of incense, they arrived at the barbarian camp.
"Hey, ha, hey, ha. Ding Xiao was dumbfounded, there were 100,000 troops training.
Each soldier is about two meters tall, each soldier is dressed in golden armor, holding a halberd in his hand, and carrying a bow and arrow behind him, murderous, and not far away, there are about 50,000 horses, galloping wantonly.
Ding Daocheng let go of the Jueying, let it gallop with the horses, looked at the army, and said proudly: "How is it." ”
Ding Xiao smashed his mouth, swallowed his saliva, and said, "I'm afraid that the armies of the eight countries can't compare to these 100,000 troops." ”
"Hahaha, I'll take you to see it. Ding Daocheng laughed out loud and pulled Ding Xiao over.
"Brothers have worked hard. Ding Daocheng smiled and said loudly to the crowd.
When everyone saw that it was the barbarian king who had returned, they stopped practicing, and they all bowed half-kneeling, and said respectfully, "See the barbarian king." ”
"Brothers, get up. Ding Daocheng waved his hand and said loudly.
After all the soldiers got up, they stood upright, without an order, and did not dare to move in the slightest, only a few generals led by them ran over, saluted with fists slightly, and said respectfully: "Welcome to the return of the barbarian king, I don't know who this is?"
Ding Daocheng smiled faintly and said: "Let me introduce, this is our warrior of the barbarian state, and also my brothers, this is my righteous son, named Ding Xiao." ”
"It turned out to be a young son. Several generals saluted slightly to Ding Xiao and said, "See the young son." ”
Ding Xiao saw that the generals were all about two meters tall, but they all looked very honest, so he had to smile faintly at the generals, knelt down on one knee, and respectfully replied: "Don't dare, it's Xiao'er who has seen your uncles and uncles." ”
It seems that a general with the largest official position took two steps forward, hurriedly helped Ding Xiao up, laughed and said, "Haha, yes, a good boy." ”
Several other generals also praised Ding Xiao in a gossipy, which made Ding Xiao a little confused, and he had to show a kind smile to the generals.
After a period of greetings, the soldiers continued to practice, and Ding Daocheng took Ding Xiao to walk around, greeting the local residents of the barbarian state cordially along the way.
In a yurt.
Only Ding Xiao stood quietly, carefully studying the map of the barbarian state hanging on the wall, but he didn't know that this station was an hour.
An hour later, Ding Daocheng walked in slowly, looked at Ding Xiao, who was motionless, patted Ding Xiao's shoulder, and said lightly: "Xiao'er, we should go back." ”
Ding Xiao felt someone pat him on the shoulder, so he reacted, looked back and saw that it was Ding Daocheng, nodded, and said, "Okay." ”
