Chapter 158: The End of the World
In the deserted wilderness, it was noon, and the sun was blazing at this time, so that people could not open their eyes. On a country road that is not very spacious, there is an occasional hot wind that blows up the sand and dust on the ground, and even the sky and the earth become a little gray.
Despite the hot weather, the road is full of life, with patches of budding rice sitting, each stretching its branches and leaves with all its might, threatening to swallow up the path. Looking at its ears and yellow grains, it is the season of picking, but because the weather is too hot, the farmers should be taking a nap at this time, so as far as the eye can see, half of the figure can not be seen.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves broke the silence. I saw an animal that looked like a horse and not a horse galloping in the middle of the road, and on its back, there were two tall figures crawling.
It was fast, stirring up dust and startling a few gray finches hiding in the greenery. Watching those bud rice leaves slash their heads and face on their bodies, leaving blood marks one after another, they all ignored it.
Seeing that Tenglangju's steps were getting heavier and heavier, and his breathing began to become difficult, Liang Mingdi's eyes were filled with tears, and he stroked its neck with some distress, and whispered: "Okay, Baiyue Palace, we have escaped so far, they shouldn't be able to catch up, you let us down!"
As soon as it heard this, it slowly stopped, and waited until the former and Shen Tuliu jumped off its back, without warning, Baiyue Palace suddenly fell to the ground with a "boom"~ Seeing this, the two of them were shocked and hurriedly went to check its injuries. This doesn't matter, and when I look at it, I can't help but gasp!
I saw that the place where Teng Langju was injured by the Golden Sands Goddess's acupuncture needle, the skin and flesh were rolling, and the blood flowed like an infusion! Due to the weather and a lot of exercise, it had become black and green at this time. Crimson blood trickled down her ass and stained both hind legs red!
At this time, Liang Mingdi was so distressed that his brows were about to twist together, he leaned over and pressed against the stomach of Baiyue Palace, and listened carefully for a long time. After a while, he raised his head violently and said to Shen Tuliu, who was also anxious beside him: "Zhen Rong Manqin's stitches are hard enough! Now Baiyue Palace's breathing has begun to fail, and even the spiritual power in his body is quite slack! If we don't help it, it will be dangerous!"
The most special thing about spirit beasts is that they can have spiritual power in their bodies like their masters, and drive them to make special skills that are difficult for ordinary beasts to do. Once the spiritual power begins to dissipate, it means that the "White Moon Palace" has been abolished by these few stitches! Since then, it is no different from an ordinary horse......
Come to think of it, in order to take Liang Mingdi and Shentu Liu away from Shuangzi Capital, it has been enduring unbearable great pain, and it is struggling to hold on!
"The most important thing at the moment is to save its life first! The White Moon Palace has been with me for so many years, and the two of us have been born and died on the battlefield, advancing and retreating together, and I don't know how many critical times have saved my life! Second brother, you quickly help me hold it down, I will help it take out the acupuncture needle!"
As soon as he heard this, Shen Tu Liu hurriedly threw himself on Teng Lang Ju's body, and while his hands were as light as possible, he tied his neck tightly, and said like a child: "Good guy, you saved our lives today, and I will remember Shen Tu Liu for the rest of my life!
I saw Liang Mingdi take out the kettle he was carrying, rinse the wound on Baiyue Palace's leg, and then take out the soul-destroying thorn, and gently pick up the flesh. Fortunately, these acupuncture needles did not pierce its abdominal cavity, leaving a thorn tip under the flesh.
Looking at these shiny spikes, Liang Mingdi's heart became more and more angry, and he couldn't help but scold: "Zhen Rong Manqin! Since the city lord treats you politely, I didn't expect to be able to do it like this! I didn't even let go of a horse~ Don't wait for Lao Tzu to seize the opportunity, otherwise you will definitely pay for your blood debts...... cough cough ......" in a fit of anger, it seemed to affect the injury on his back, and he immediately coughed.
After relieving for a while, he calmed down and said, "Second brother, are you ready, I'm coming!" After speaking, he wrapped one hand around Baiyue Palace's hoof and neck, and then directly put his face to the wound - he actually used his teeth directly to pull out the needle!
Unexpectedly, the originally dying Tenglang Horse suddenly widened his eyes and struggled incessantly, as if he was in extreme pain. If it weren't for Shen Tuliu's help in pressing, I'm afraid I would have jumped up a long time ago! Fortunately, Liang Mingdi's movements were also sharp enough, and he would have pulled out all the three or four steel needles that had pierced his body by dividing them by two.
Tear off the needle and press the wound again, the latter pulled off a few soft strips of cloth from his body and bandaged it. After working for a while, they saw that the extremely tired Baiyue Palace had fallen asleep, so the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground......
Seeing that Liang Mingdi's face became more and more pale, Shen Tuliu couldn't help but worry: "Big brother, this Zhen Rong Manqin's weapon is notoriously vicious, and if you don't get rid of the acupuncture needle on your back now, I'm afraid the consequences will only get more and more serious!
At this time, the former was so painful that he couldn't even speak, so he had to nod in agreement, but he shook his head again, and said: "Second brother, once this needle of hers pierces the vital point, it can't be pulled hard, otherwise my few lives will not be enough to toss! Even so, in the end, the eldest brother will inevitably be invalidated......"
Thinking that he would be a "waste" from now on, his expression couldn't help but become extremely depressed again. The meaning of his words is that you can't rely on brute force to remove the sealing needle, you need to use external force to complete it. The latter itself has no internal strength, and when he heard this, his heart couldn't help but feel cold, so he hurriedly said: "Right now, if you don't rely on the village and don't have a store, where can we go to find the master?!" Even if we can find it, I don't know if you, big brother, ...... Will you be able to make it to that point?"
The former waved his hand, signaling that it was okay, and then said leisurely: "This place is not suitable for a long time, let's set off immediately, and hurry back to Bihai City! Originally, I wanted to rely on the White Moon Palace to send us back directly, even if we have to cross the Qiandu River, it will not be difficult for it." It's just that~
It's just that now that even it has become like this, we have to speed up the process even more!Second brother, now the eldest brother doesn't have the extra strength to take the White Moon Palace away, but I can't leave it here to fend for itself...... How can you figure it out?"
Shentu Liu's head was silent for a moment, and when he looked at the budding rice fields around him, he immediately thought from his heart and replied: "What's so difficult about this! Everything is wrapped up in me! Big brother, you wait a while, and the second brother will come when he goes!" ......
At this time, an ordinary peasant family was taking a nap, and suddenly heard the dog barking in the yard, so he got up to check. I saw an old man open the door of the house, and found the earth dog tied under the eaves, barking incessantly outside the yard.
He looked up, and saw no one for a long time, so he scolded: "Wangcai, what are you yelling about in broad daylight? Do you want people to take a nap?!" Hearing the master's voice, the dog stopped barking and kept shaking his head and tail in this direction.
Seeing this, the former shook his head helplessly and went back to sleep. It's just that what he didn't notice was that the wheelbarrow that was originally placed in the corner of the yard to transport buds, and even half of the courtyard door, were gone......
At this time, on the way south, Shen Tuliu fixed the stolen courtyard gate to the wheelbarrow. The two of them carefully placed the White Moon Palace on it, and the former pushed it alone, heading in the direction of Bihai City......
At the same time, Shuangzidu. The Jinsha Divine Aunt, who had assembled the master's brigade, was about to leave the city, when she suddenly saw Hong Bang returning in a daze, so she asked: "Lord Hongcheng, looking at it like this, he really escaped?"
The latter snorted coldly and replied angrily: "You didn't see how fast the beast ran! Judging by the situation, it must be in the southwest direction, and I have sent hundreds of men to search all the way along the clues left by them.
They all have injuries on their bodies, I don't think they will escape far, if they want to go back to Bihai City, they will definitely find a way to cross the Qiandu River. We've already set up an ambush there, just waiting for them to drill in!"
The former nodded and said, "With the Hong City Lord here, I can rest assured, everyone will be very busy in the recent period, and we must do things carefully, once we are negligent, things will become complicated! We have been planning for so many years, but don't capsize in the gutter!"
After speaking, he was about to ride his horse away, but was hurriedly stopped by Hong Bang, only to hear him ask again: "Do you really want to go to Bihai City? Isn't it okay for Hong to solve the problem? ”
The former shook his head and replied: "After all, this is still the family matter of the city lord, and it is naturally better for me to solve the problem as for Hu Qin." Could it be that the Lord of Hong City is not at ease with me?" After speaking, he couldn't help but take a deep look at the latter.
As soon as he heard this, Hong Bang immediately shook his head lightly, and said, "There is a god aunt out of the horse, what is there to worry about." They are all allies, and it is reasonable for everyone to take what they need, and now that the goal has been achieved, Hong has nothing to worry about. It's just ~ as soon as you leave on the front foot, you will leave me here alone, and now Shuangzi is still the territory of Shuangfeng Country, and that Fengjia is ......"
"It's okay, when the city lord set off to come to Shuangzi Capital, the lord of the country has already led a large army from the Nine Holy Kingdoms, and it is estimated that the Shuangfeng Kingdom has been controlled at this time!"
As soon as he heard this, Hong Bang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, looked at the former with inexplicable eyes, and said: "I didn't expect your lord's movements to be quite fast~ Since this is the case, then I will be in Shuangzidu~ Waiting for the good news of the god aunt!"
At that moment, the two of them nodded in unison, only to see that the Jinsha Divine Aunt was the leader, with a team of thousands of masters, heading south. I could only hear her words drifting from afar: "As long as we get things done, this is the most generous gift you have given to your prime minister! Relatively speaking, those little things in your family are a little insignificant."
Lord Hongcheng, I have ordered someone to send a small gift to your mansion in the name of Jinsha City, with a slight expression. I beg your pardon for not being able to attend the meeting in person......"
Nearly two days passed like this, and at this time, hundreds of miles away in Bihai City, everyone was busy with their own affairs, and they didn't know what earth-shattering changes had happened in Shuangzidu. Since Liang Mingdi left a few days, Gu Jinfeng has temporarily become the "temporary city lord", and everything is handled by him personally, and it is still in order.
It's just that what no one knows is that the crisis is coming!
In the afternoon, in a quiet alley, there was a small teahouse, and Master Ling, who had nothing to do, was drinking tea and playing Go with Master You. I saw that the two were talking and laughing, sometimes taking a sip of tea, sometimes frowning, studying the "black and white army" in front of him, and it looked quite leisurely.
The two chatted about family life without saying a word, chatting and chatting, and talked about a "big event" that happened in Anhua City recently. So I listened to Master You say slowly: "Brother Ling, these two days coincide with the day of the marriage of the eldest young master of Hongbang, and it seems that it is quite lively. I heard that even the minister of Hezhen went to congratulate him in person, and this face is really enough!"
When Master Ling heard this, he couldn't help but purse his mouth, and took over the conversation and said, "Isn't it! Seeing that the Four Cities Army is crusading against Shuangzidu in the past two days, Hong Bang personally set out to fight, and he doesn't know when he will be able to come back." chose to set a marriage for his son at this juncture, and I don't know what a good day it is once in a thousand years, even he, the 'old husband', is not there, but he will hold such a noisy marriage banquet, which is known to the world. In my opinion, what else is there to be bored?"
The former smiled, and then said: "Even his uneducated and wooden-minded son can get a daughter-in-law, and he can be regarded as having accumulated a lot of yin virtue in his last life!
After a pause, he continued: "He, the daughter-in-law who has not passed through the door, we also know each other, not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also well-behaved. It's a pity that such a smart little girl has set a family affair with him~ However, it is also unavoidable for many people to climb to the in-laws of the city lord. Now that the world is so dark, as long as you don't suffer from it, you can live in a confused way!"
After speaking, the two took another sip of tea and buried themselves in analyzing the chess game. At this time, Master You changed the topic and said, "It seems that I haven't seen that kid from Huan Gongjing for two days, and I have seen that he has been very busy recently, and he has faintly begun to meddle in the affairs of the army." I'm afraid that in a few years, our old bones will have to abdicate and make way for Xian!
There is also Ling Xiaolan, I feel that she has been improving quite rapidly recently. Brother Ling, you are quite a good master, but what tricks do you have, I can copy it over and train my unsuccessful apprentice well?"
As soon as he heard this, the latter deliberately made a strange expression and replied: "Tsk~ Our famous You Duwei is actually so modest? In Bihai City, who doesn't know that among the younger generation of masters, the speed of Shuyou Wuxian practice is the fastest, which can be described as a thousand miles a day! The old brother said this, but he wants to see my jokes?"
After speaking, he put the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and said, "Brother You, did you see my move?"
On the other hand, Master You only smiled slightly, pressed the chess pieces in his hand, and replied: "The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind~ Hehe, Brother Ling, what do you think of this step?"
Master Ling looked at the chess game for a long time, and couldn't help patting his forehead and smiling bitterly: "Oops! Brother You's move of 'striking the east and west' is really amazing......! I lost this game!"
